What do I do with my life, you might wonder? What exactly is my job with 24-7 Prayer? Like my friend Katie Cornick describes in the 24-7 Prayer Japan blog that she’s just put up, that’s a hard question to answer…because it’s more about who I am and the lifestyle that I am living rather than a job that I am doing.

Katie, Jon and I were together in Japan for the last week, stirring up some trouble in a very natural way! We are so privileged to get to pioneer this work for the 24-7 family alongside and under the oversight of this spiritual father to us.

It’s sunny and 60, and I’m sitting like a cat in the stream of light coming into the front porch of this retreat house. A light breeze blows the hanging fabric that designates an outdoor space for prayer and worship, and I’m so thankful for this luxury afforded us during these winter months. Hong Kong [...]
