Water. How can something so basic be so valuable? And how can something so apparently abundant in some places of the world be so scarce in others? But this trip to Peru wasn’t about a lack of water. It was about a lack of clean water. Water that stimulates life rather than suffocates it. Water that’s free from bacteria and… Read more →
Peru: ¡Bienvenido!
I woke early after just a few hours of overly-exhausted sleep. Fifteen of us had flown into Lima, Peru the previous evening and had been picked up by our born-in-Peru-but-very-American host, Tom. We all bundled into a van and drove a short, chaotic distance to the SAM (South American Mission) House – a tardis-esque type home that’s squeezed between… Read more →

Here’s a little something-something Sue recorded for Highpoint Church’s pre-roll last year. Love the message… love our Creative Team!!
Downgraded Destiny
Throughout my life I’ve been taught, and have subsequently believed, that my destiny depended on me. “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.” As a Christian, I know God has a plan for my life. My destiny. BUT… Somewhere along the line, I’ve come to believe that I can thwart this destiny. That I can ruin God’s master… Read more →
