“But as soon as the feet of the priests who were carrying the Ark touched the water at the river’s edge, the water above that point began backing up a great distance away . . . And the water below that point flowed into the Dead Sea until the riverbed was dry. Then all the people crossed over near the town of Jericho.” Joshua 3:15b-16 (NLT) In 2015, I started attending a missionary training school in Missouri. The thought of going to another country intrigued me, and I wanted to learn in another setting. Things were going well, but I […]

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone the new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 I was born as a Cree person, and I am very proud of who I am. I was raised by my mom and dad with values and virtues. There has been a lot of talk lately about “finding yourself” in order to be healed. I was never healed because of who I was, but by the saving grace of God, the Creator, who through His Son Jesus Christ, saved me from eternal separation from God. God gave me […]

“Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not more valuable than they?” Matthew 6:26 (NIV) June 18, 1997, I surrendered to Jesus. A month later, I voluntarily cooked at a Youth Dynamics Bush Camp for children.

There was no running water, no electricity, no plumbing, and it was pitch black with chilly temperatures at night. My two-year-old son and […]

“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” Isaiah 1:18 (NIV) The windshield was cracked. Not just a hairline fracture, but a “spider web” shatter that had the potential to make Spiderman sit up and take notice! So, I got it changed. Such a difference — from the gravel-battered glass of yesterday, to the clear drivability that I could now experience. It reminded me of how God’s Word talks about His forgiveness. Then came […]

“Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 (NIV) My life was out of control. Drugs and drinking had taken over and ruled my life. I was headed for a party on my motorbike. There were three of us riding on it, but we never made it. We ended up in an accident, and I was taken to jail in handcuffs. I woke up in jail the next morning, and it was there that the Holy Spirit brought to my memory a […]
