Richland

Had  good week in Richland, MO.  James Messer did a great job preaching and there was a good spirit.  The town of Richland was hit with tragedy while we were there however.  On Tuesday there was a car accident that took the lives of an 80 year old man and a popular teenage girl there [...]

Revival Time

Starting a revival Sunday with James Messer.  James is the “Mel Tillis” of Evangelism.  He’s tongue-tied and was born with a lot of excuses not to succeed.  But he’s allowed God to use him for His glory and has a great testimony.  People tend to listen to him closer because he’s tongue-tied but he’d be a [...]

Good Weekend/Revival Coming

Wow, didn’t 08′ just begin???  Hard to believe March is here and Spring is on the way.  Spring for us brings more Revival meetings.  We’ll be heading to Richland, Missouri soon for a revival with Evangelist James Messer.  James is a very close friend of ours and God is really using him.  For those of [...]

Home Again Home Again….

Sons of The Father had a great time at the training conference.  It was Next Level Leadership training being led by Pastor Bill Hulse of Parkview Baptist in Tulsa, OK. He was a natural at leading the conference and did a super job. We had a great time and learned a lot there, I’d recommend [...]

No Snow ;-)

Overall it was a great meeting at Waterloo.  Pastor Jones and the staff were great and had prepared well.  Unfortunately they’re closing out the week of revival with two funerals in their church family.  Be sure to say a prayer for them.
We had a lazy driving day yesterday after getting things torn down and loaded at [...]

Baby News….

Of course we (Brent & Ola) are excited about the new baby.  For those of you that don’t know, Ola’s sister Dasha (in Moscow) is also expecting.  Their baby is due in early August I think but I’ll have to re-check that.  Anyway it’s fun for the sisters to share what each other is going [...]

Neither Rain, Nor Ice/Snow, Nor Stomach Flu…….

Well it’s been an interesting revival to say the least.  The rain, the snow, the ice, none of it has been able to keep people from showing up.  There have been people at the altar in every service praying for the lost and praying that God would bring revival in their lives.  Not every week is like this unfortunately.  The [...]

The View From Here

Thankfully, this morning I woke up finally feeling better.  I sang last night and then slipped out and went to bed.  Here’s what we woke up to:

We already had ice last night but the people still came. We even sang for a Senior Adult breakfast this morning. They’re either very serious about revival or tired [...]

Two Words “Stomach Flu”

Ever try to preach, sing, work, do anything while you had the stomach flu.  I’ll save you the wonderful details but I’ve got it.  Brought it from home, my little girl has it.  I was able to get though singing yesterday morning, good services by the way, and last night.  There were several people at [...]

Road Update

Hello from the road.  Now that we have internet while we’re traveling, I thought I’d start updating folks on where we are and what’s going on in our ministry.  We’re starting a revival today in Waterloo Illinois with Evangelist Phil Glisson.  Starting today we’ll sing in 14 services in the next 8 days.  Pray for God [...]
