God has Good Plans for You
In a previous post I shared about how Israel was sent to captivity by God for refusing to obey him. But God didn’t give up on Israel. God promises his people that when the seventy years are over (70 years was the years Babylon would rule) he would “visit” them, and give them his good […]

Living as Exiles in a Foreign Land
Israel was called to be the light of nations and failed. This brought exile, banishment from the Promised Land. God used the nation of Babylon for this. The conquest of God’s people (Judah) was inevitable. Their disobedience had come to its full measure before God. They rejected God’s correction time after time and decided to […]

Viviendo en Exilio como Peregrinos
Israel fue llamado para ser luz de las naciones y falló. Esto trajo el exilio o ser desterrado de la Tierra Prometida. Dios usó a la nación de Babilonia para esto. La conquista del pueblo de Dios (Judá) fue inevitable. La desobediencia de ellos había llegado a colmo ante Dios. Vez tras vez rechazaron la […]

Mantén el Don de Dios Ardiendo
Pablo escribió 2 Timoteo como una carta personal a Timoteo su hijo en la fe. Era un poco más joven que Pablo y no sólo había recibido un don de Dios relacionado con el ministerio, sino que también había aprendido ministerio junto a él. En los primeros versículos, le recuerda a Timoteo que mantenga en […]

Keep the Aflame the Gift God gave You
Paul wrote 2 Timothy as a personal letter to Timothy his son in the faith. He was a bit younger that Paul and had not only received a gift from God related to ministry but also learned ministry alongside of him. In the first verses, he reminds Timothy to keep aflame this gift he had […]

These are simple things to keep in mind and practice to become intentional learners of other people’s cultures. 1. Be proactive in learning […]

Ethnicity, Culture and My Identity
My ethnicity and my culture do not define who I am. I don’t recall I have ever written publicly on this subject with the except for writing a short biography many years ago when I was a teacher. But before I share my thoughts about that statement, here is a bit of my ethnic and […]

¡Maravillados! Mateo 28:1-10
Nada e es más maravilloso que el hecho de que Dios Hijo resucitó de entre los muertos. Tal cosa jamás a sido llevada a cabo por nadie. El concepto de resurrección (las personas muertas resucitando o resucitándose así mismas) era ajeno a las ideas contemporáneas de ese entonces. Historias y mitos de esta índole si […]

El Precio que Él pagó por Nosotros
Mas él herido fue por nuestras rebeliones, molido por nuestros pecados; el castigo de nuestra paz fue sobre él, y por su llaga fuimos nosotros curados. 6 Todos nosotros nos descarriamos como ovejas, cada cual se apartó por su camino; mas Jehová cargó en él el pecado de todos nosotros. (RV 1960) Este pasaje profético predijo […]
