Trip To California


Josiah, Cassie and I recently took a trip to California to drop Cassie at college. Having graduated home school, Cassie was accepted at Simpson University (all irony aside) and was able to get a number of grants and scholarships to be able at attend there for the 2007-2008 school year. We arrived on the first day of orientation, got her stuff into her room, attended an orientation where she signed up for various things, had lunch there, and then went to get her books and settle a few other things. Josiah and I came back the following noon for lunch and final goodbyes. It is hard for us to be apart but we are praying that Cassie will have a good college experience and do well there. Please be praying for her that she will be able to keep up with her studies and make lot of good friends there. Pray that she will draw ever closer to the Lord during this time.


Josiah and I continued back down to Camino, CA where my brother-in-law pastors a church there. I spoke at the Berean class that meets during the second service where I gave my testimony and answered some questions on discernment topics. We have a wonderful time there and I was encouraged to see the people there digging deep into the Word. I had a good time with my sister, her husband and kids there. We were able to go on some hikes and Josiah as able to go kayaking and tow me back on a rubber mattress after I had floated across the lake. The area close to Lake Tahoe is such a beautiful area. We give thanks to the Lord for protecting us on our trip and are glad to be back in HI now. I had over 500 emails to answer which should give you an idea of how much email I receive because of my web sites. But finally today I have been able to get everything done that got piled up for a week. I am sold out of two books and am reprinting them now. A number of them are still flying off the shelves. Pray for me as I continue to seek the Lord's will in co-authoring another book with Mike Oppenheimer on the subject of the New Age coming into the churches.
