About Brian
I am a follower of Jesus, blessed with a wife, two children, and a call to serve God wherever He leads. For 12 years, we were missionaries, with me serving as a missionary journalist sharing stories of His work in South Africa and around the world. When we moved back to the USA, Tracy and the kids returned to normal work, and I continued serving remotely in missions.

It’s an art of honoring, valuing, and validating.

for Paris and all the other places
Pray.
How else can we begin? What else can be said, especially after so many things already have been? So many words, some beautiful, some ugly.

Getting around, getting home
We’ve been traveling a bit.
In the past month, we’ve spent time in seven cities across ten states (well, nine states and a province) in two countries, from Toronto, Canada to Jacksonville, Florida.
