End of the Semester, 2025

Merry Christmas

As we celebrate Christmas, may we never lose sight of what it truly means.
“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!” (2 Corinthians 9:15)

The eternal Son of God humbled Himself, taking on flesh as a baby, living among us, experiencing every human struggle — all to become the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. There is no greater gift than this.

My prayer is that as we enter 2026, you will not waste your dash — the brief span of life God gives us — but that you will boldly and joyfully carry the good news of the gospel into the world. There is a lost generation waiting to hear.

Thank you for standing with me in this ministry.
Merry Christmas, and may Christ be your exceeding joy.

As we close out the fall semester at ECU, I want to thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and support. Our students are heading into a much-needed Christmas break. This first semester has been full, stretching, and fruitful — for them and for me.

Campus ministry days are long but deeply rewarding. Parking on campus has recently increased to $25 per day, and when I’m on campus for 12 hours at a time (about twice a week), those days are filled with gospel labor:
• Outreach on campus, speaking with students about the hope found only in Christ
• Meeting with a new believer, walking through Scripture and answering his questions
• Hosting our weekly Bible study, where students dig into God’s Word together

Last Thursday was our final gathering before the break, and we celebrated a sweet Friendsgiving. Everyone brought a dish, we shared a meal, laughed, and talked. It reminded me once again that it is a privilege to be part of these students’ lives. Watching them grow in their faith is one of the greatest joys God has given me.

Outside of campus, I recently had the opportunity to hand out tracts at Lights Up in Goldsboro. The Lord connected me with a precious young lady who told me she loves sharing the gospel. Moments like this are a reminder that God is always at work, preparing hearts everywhere.

Tom and others sharing the gospel in Murrieta Market. They had good nights sharing the Gospel in CA.

Andre and Cliff are still working on getting official at BCCC.

Pottstown is coming together and sharing the gospel.

Jen went to a Paul McCartney concert to hand out tracts with Terry, and they ran into a large group that was handing out tracts. It was a great encouragement.
