Wow. We can't believe the year is almost gone. We hope you had a wonderful Christmas season.

Here's what's been going on with us and Burning Hearts Ministries over the last year:

The Book

In May we were very excited to announce that my book, Fanning the Flames of Intercession, was ready. It's been quite the amazing 12 year process to get on paper everything I've learned in my 21 year journey of discovering the heart of God through intercessory prayer. So far we are getting very good responses from those who have read the book. Here is a sample:
'This is one of the best books I've read. Mike's own personal journey and experiences are quite profound and are of great encouragement. Its really quite intense how Jesus took him …show more content…

I am devoting at least two hours a day to prayer, seven days a week. God has given me several prayer assignments over this last year. I prayed for three or four months about the Azuza Now event in Los Angeles that happened on April 9. Since then I am praying for worldwide revival in the nations and for specific churches, ministries and young adults all over the world.
Locally here in Oregon I had the great privilege of joining about 40, mostly young people, to hike Spencer Butte in Eugene. It was probably the wettest day of the summer. Continual downpour the entire time. Nevertheless we had a great time praying for Eugene and the surrounding area and declaring scripture over the region.
Then in August I led another team back to Spencer Butte to pray over the city and the region.

Young adults around the world.

One of our greatest joys is to continue to encourage, strengthen and pray for young adults here and in many places in the world. It's not uncommon for us to be on a two hour Skype/FaceTime call encouraging, sometimes counseling and always praying for these young …show more content…

She is so precious!!! We also got some time with our daughter, Jessica and her husband, Alex while in North Carolina.
Then it was on to Texas to see our daughter Erin and her husband Alex and our grandson Max, who is such a joy.

The Road Trip of Road Trips

In late September, we had the privilege of accompanying Mom Bachelder on her 22 state, 7300 mile bucket list road trip. Mom was able to see many grandkids and great-grandkids on this trip, and we were blessed to see all of our kids and grandkids for quick visits along the way. Such a joy. We were also able to see some sites like Yellowstone Park, Mount Rushmore, The Crazyhorse Monument, and the Little Bighorn Battlefield. We finished the trip at Mom's new home in Brenda, Arizona, where she will be spending the winter.

The Faith Journey Continues

When we started Burning Hearts Ministries in 2008, God spoke very clearly to me, with confirmations, that He was our source and He was going to meet our needs. He has been so faithful, especially during our time as missionaries in

Coaching the Del City Bible Quiz team has been a life-changing experience from the beginning. When I founded the team in early April, my father, a pastor, was nearing the end of his eight-month transition from senior pastor to interim pastor to layperson. This lengthy process involved numerous churches across Oklahoma as well as the unfortunate loss of several friendships. Luckily, the Bible Quiz team became a source of new friendships that helped me through the tough transition.

Bethel Baptist Church never encountered a challenge like this before. The church accepted an invitation to participate in a mission in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Making an appearance in a foreign environment terrified both adolescents and adults. Even with those uneasy feelings, the congregation quickly zeroed in on the goal at hand in spreading God’s love to this needy region. With events such as church cleanup, food ministry, and disaster relief, the church left with a greater appreciation of life, and how lucky many of the citizens in the United States truly are.

This book has moved me and shown me that some people need help that is as simple as listening to what they have to say. So, i am going to make sure that people know they can come to me to talk and I will listen, and not judge them in any way. Also it makes me want to get involved in support groups for those who have been through this type of event so that I may help them in any way I can, because people that have been through something that is not there fault should not suffer from

During the reading of chapter 1 by Brenda Combs I became tearful with her story of how the circumstances in her life changed by imploring help from the Lord to heal her from her addictions and homelessness. After she took her decision of staying positive, and setting up goals, and with determination that she and her son deserved more than a simple paycheck. Those thoughts were her inspiration for improvement, and working very hard in her dreams without giving up. The poem she wrote for her son inspired me to work harder and continue working with love and respect for self and others as always do and being an example for my daughter. With this article I was able to identify many of my areas that I have to work- on and also I was able to identify

This book made me think about things I never really thought about before. Things like listening and paying close attention to the sick because interpreting what they’re doing can make such a huge impact or difference. I personally never had to go through the hard times of losing a loved one, so reading this book was very informative and pretty fascinating. Both Callahan and Kelley did a great job of organizing this book and making it very easy to understand. Each and every section had stories that explained the chapter title and the meaning of it.

The trip I took part in was the Navajo missions trip, a one week trip in Arizona where we had the chance to lead and interact with Native American families. When I first signed up, I thought this trip would be smooth and easy, but it really tested my leadership and compassion. Not only did preparing take a great deal of work but leading small groups and attempting to interact with the Navajo kids was even more challenging. I noticed there were many cliques among the Navajo families there and even my own group. My teammates and I were supposed to set an example, but instead we did the exact opposite.

I have been on several mission trips in America and out of the Country. Going on those trips have opened my eyes to what really goes on in the world. I have seen so much hurt and need, but I have also experienced the most joyful humans. These experiences led me to be more grateful for my life and as well as to understand others better. Growing up in a family of six kids, I needed to learn how to communicate and work together.

Tyler Strunk Professor Tanis Intro to World Religion May 16, 2016 The Perspective of God in the Five Major Religions In the past, very little about foreign cultures and religions was shared among the masses. If they were documented at all, the traditions, beliefs, and practices were often two-dimensional descriptions in books. Heavily influenced by globalization, today’s world has made interreligious contact commonplace, a necessary knowledge enabling us to live as neighbors with those of different faiths.

Page 1 This website has been developed to explain the role of the action researcher and for visual learners like myself, who need a visual view of what a written action plan would look along with the procedures. According to Tom Russell (1999), a faculty member of education at Queen’s University, action research describes professionals who study their profession to improve upon it. When used by educators it involves gathering and interpreting data collected to understand a factor of teaching that concerns us.
