Lessons at Wal-Mart

I have made two trips to Wal-Mart since I have been here in the States. I went to a regular Wal-Mart and also to a Supercenter. I had forgotten how huge those places are. So many things to buy, so many choices. The Supercenter Wal-Mart is even bigger with acres of stuff. I am especially impressed with the grocery store section, piles of fruit and shelf after shelf of food, so many choices. This is yet another reminder of how the States is so blessed. So much abundance and so many choices, it is amazing.

So this is what a trip to Wal-Mart has taught me today, how blessed the United States is. Even though I spend most of the year outside of the States, I am glad that I am a citizen of this blessed nation.

In February we were promoted as the Vice Presidents of Equipp...

I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...
