Yesterday we went to worship at the Bible School since they had me on the preaching schedule. I preached on Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians (Ephesians 1:15-23).

We had good flights all the way; GR-Detroit-Amsterdam-Abuja. On all the flights we sat on the window side, two seats together so we were not stuck in between other passengers. Abuja airport was a breeze. No hassle over anything nor was any luggage opened. The Baptist guesthouse was spartan, hot and it turned out fullContinue reading “We Thank God”
