The λογος Affect: June 2010
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 25, 2010. This is why I'm here. Someone recently asked the question "Why has God brought you to Bangladesh? The answer to that question may seem obvious for me, but there are so many things that I'm involved with, and so many other things I could and even want to do that it was good for me to stop and think about "Why HAS God brought me to Bangladesh? Saturday, June 19, 2010. Weekend in Sri Mongol. That evening we went to a village wedding we were invited to. We got there in time for som...

The λογος Affect: July 2010
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 16, 2010. In the midst of frustration I felt the Spirit say to me "Really Bryan? These 'troubles' are getting to you? You're already getting agitated? At least I have nice flat with a washing machine and AC. I have multiple clothes to wash as well! As I sit here quite comfortably now, what do I have to complain about? The pictures show a group of men I met at the leprosy mission. They are missing hands, feet, legs. They seemed happy enough to have a friend help them wrap their ulcers.

The λογος Affect: Two worlds meet
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010/09/two-worlds-meet.html
Friday, September 24, 2010. Over the last 2000 years technology has changed, the roads look different, and now the buildings are a little taller here, but the culture, the social structure, and the attitudes I see here, they are the same ones I read about Jesus being surrounded by. As Jesus entered Jericho there was a blind man sitting near the road, begging. When the blind man heard it was Jesus coming he cried out for help! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The λογος Affect: Libraries
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010/08/libraries.html
Saturday, August 21, 2010. A few weeks ago I was able to travel to this brother's village! In May I left the books in Delhi India with a friend, and when I saw them again I remembered just how many there were and got really excited again! We put them in a huge bag to take to him.

The λογος Affect: September 2009
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 9, 2009. Lack of money and opportunities. I received an email today with a link to a missions video. It was not the usual God breaking through the darkness and crashing through cultural barriers and people coming to Christ in far off places video. It started with scripture which is usually encouraging, romans 10:14. How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? This was immediately followed by "Well, Go...

The λογος Affect: October 2009
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 12, 2009. A rare piece of poetry. A verse that helped me come out of a hard time was Matthew 12:20: A battered reed he will not break off; a smoldering wick He will not put out. Recent conversations reminded me of this time and that even though I wasn't seeking God, he never let me go! Enjoy cuz I don't often write poetry. A man seeking his own. Battered, beaten and bruised. A brittle. Reed thirsty, weak and dry. Near dead but. He would not let go. He. Will not abandon. I have. I would be...

The λογος Affect: The Commute
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010/07/commute.html
Friday, July 2, 2010. On an average day it takes me 30 minutes to get to the office from the house assuming I don't have to get on a rickshaw and hunt for an available cng that early in the morning. This last week was a normally abnormal week though. Tuesday I didn't feel well so I worked from home on some balance sheets and P&L statements. Such is life in Dhaka. July 6, 2010 at 6:48 PM. Ive been warned to stay away from large angry crowds is a great set up line. Glad you made it through.

The λογος Affect: Snapshot
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010/08/snapshot.html
Saturday, August 14, 2010. I haven't written an update in a while. I've been busy, but its mostly because the new life where everything is different, weird and cool, is now just normal everyday life. This is a bit random but here's an update of whats been going on in my 'normal' life the last month. I see them, they call out to me for help, I can't help them, and it stresses me out and breaks my heart. I want to finish strong. For those who are supporting me financially, thank you, and please don't f...

The λογος Affect: February 2010
http://thewordaffect.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 19, 2010. Well, I've spent a month in Asia, I'm back in the states and I'm readjusted. I've seen a different world from anything here in the West. The masses of people with different clothes, different religions, simple reasons for living; the extreme poverty; the food and the smells; the overall way of life, all of it has affected me deeply in ways I won't fully know. Thanks to all of you for your prayers while I was traveling. The Father protected me, and blessed abundantly.
