New opportunities
I had two live speaking events this month. The first one was teaching the same three classes to the high school students attending Fort Wilderness’ second session of LAB (a three-week discipleship program).

I told them that it’s not just head knowledge but involves trust and commitment which results in transformation. Like with the first LAB, I gave some of them lots to think about. My second speaking opportunity was at Living Stones Fellowship in Stevens Point. It’s been a while since I have been there, so it was great to be back with that body of believers. I spoke on Evidence for the Resurrection.
The last of the series on Biblical Translations was recently posted. One listener commented that she loved the series and learned so much. Lessons on David’s Guide to Leadership continue to be posted. Check these out as well as a variety of other subjects.

Why are there different Bible translations? | 13-25 min
Why are there different Bible translations? Is there one better than the other? Is there a correct Bible translation? Why so many different Bibles? These are many questions you may have asked yourself when trying to figure what Bible to use or recommend for a Bible study. Did you know that some translations were developed…
As we relocate E4F to Kewaskum, we are praying for God to bring new opportunities to inspire people to follow Jesus and equip them to grow and defend their faith. Contact us if you would be interested in booking an event or share us with someone who might be. Pray with us that our new studio will be operational by the end of August.

More funding is essential
Our funding goal is $12,500 per month for salaries and operating expenses. Currently we are at 57% which is not even enough to cover salaries. We also need the funds to get the new studio operational. Therefore, it is essential for us to raise more support. God has faithfully provided in the past, so we are trusting He will provide for us now. Won’t you pleaseprayerfully consider partnering with us as we bring the Truth to a broken world?

Relocation update
We were overwhelmed with the number of friends and family that showed up 7/21 to help us load our stuff on the trailers!! They were done and on the road by 3 pm. We unloaded most everything into our new garage the next day and began moving into the house on the 30th. We closed on the 31st. In the meantime, we stayed with our daughter, Amanda. We are looking forward to settling into our new home!
Keep Us in Your Prayers
Please continue to pray for us as we bring the Truth to this broken world:
- Praise God for all the help we have received as we relocate!
- Pray for new opportunities.
- Pray that the studio will be operational by the end of the month.
- Pray for more funding to help us reach our monthly goal of $12,500 to cover salaries and operating expenses! Please consider partnering with us.
Thank you for your prayers! May God’s face shine upon you and be gracious to you!
