Hi guys~
Rachel, great idea here! I think that deeper connections are what we are all after in life because that is how God mad us, to be relational and to love one another in contrast to lone rangers out there trying to impact the world by ourselves.
I love hearing all the prayer requests as well and often wonder about "the rest of the story" in the circumstances and situations brought before the family for support and prayer and I truly think we are all really blessed when we get to see how God moved and worked through them. It encourages us and serves as a reminder that God is very much alive and involved in our lives.
All that to say that I'm 100% onboard and support you in this and look for and pray that others will jump in. God is good and I know he is in this, to him be all the glory, honor, and praise.
On a personal note, my three kids are pretty much grown but like you, I still find myself continually taking them off the throne of replacing God back in his rightful place as my Lord and King. It's not easy, and we'll never be perfect and have it right all the time, but just being able to recognize it and respond in obedience when we do is HUGE! So I just wanted to encourage you with that today from one mom to another.
Again, looking forward to seeing what God will do in this thread. I'm in! Thanks, Rachel. God bless.

Hi guys,
Just wanted to touch base about something that is pressing on my heart. Rwanda. I can't even type or look at the word without starting to cry. I know I don't get to go (THIS time), but the idea of going, the vision of those sweet young faces, everything about it seems to call to me. My husband is dead set against me EVER going there, so I have quite a bit of prayer about that, not to mention the cost. It's funny to me. All the trips that Brian takes, and takes us on, none has ever had this impact. Granted it is the only "mission" trip. But it just stirs me in a way I cannot describe. So...I guess this time I'll be praying for the team going as well as those already there. Is it odd to say I love them? To people that far away? That I've never heard? Or met? Or corresponded with in any way? It feels odd. It feels unexplainable. It feels like God.

Rachel, that is God. When He puts a desire in your heart combined with a passion to love others, then it's life to the full!

Hi family,
Quick update - my husbands health issues (he's only 53) have thrust to the forefront of our lives the fact that I need purpose and direction that can support and sustain our family in the event of his untimely passing. Please pray with me to discern what career God would have me pursue. I have no college education yet but have a passion both for nutrition and education (not necessarily related to each other). I would ask that part of the prayer be for financial provision as well in whatever field God leads me to. Thanks family. I'll post details (or maybe call in with them) later. Thanks for everything. Love y'all!

Welcome back to the forums, James. Does this mean you are starting back up with DAB podcasts too?

I'm iffy at best. every so often. Maybe to people on the outside (and I mean EVERYONE), nothing has changed, but my life has changed drastically. But I will probably take a shot at some kind of regularity with DAB.
