Mike’s aunt and uncle were in a real bad house fire. His cousin was badly injured and air transported to Dallas for medical attention. They lost everything.
Please pray for the Caballero family. We possibly will have to head to Texas. Please pray for our safe travels. Thank you and God Bless.
Mike and Bethany

Hi Jim,
I am really looking forward to my time with Maranatha. I have taught various forms of this lesson for a bunch of classes so I have all of the ‘bugs’ worked out and should be ready to create, I hope, a meaningful series of classes. Here is the info:
Title: "Everything that my Sunday school teacher was afraid to teach me about the Bible". Basically, I would like to explore how the most up-to-date historical research on what we actually know about the people and places in the Bible can significantly enhance our understanding of scripture – and in particular – Jesus.
