I wanted to express my gratitude for all of you who read this blog and pray for the things I post. I was thinking on this early in the morning...how grateful I am to you and your involvement with my ministry. Without prayer, I would be like a man going into battle unarmed. In a very real way, you are a part of my ministry. I know the effect will echo into eternity. The growth that has occurred in Jordan's life, in Ben's life, in Cavin's life, etc. is the power of God working through your faithful prayers!

With that in mind, would you pray for Rudy this week? He recently had his girlfriend break up with him, and is going through a rough time.

1. Pray for comfort for him.

2. Pray that God would use this situation to draw him closer.

3. Pray for a heart to reach out to the people in his dorm and in his studio.

Well, things are beginning to wind down here at Long Beach. The students have a week and a half of classes as well as a week of finals. I have about two more weeks with these guys before break. So, my prayer request for this week is simple:

1. Pray that the semester would end well for the Bereans, spiritually and in their classes.

2. Pray for some good conversations to end the year with non-Christians, both for me and for the guys I meet with.

3. Pray for wisdom in prepping these guys for their break. I want to help them have a spiritually enriching break.
