- When God Says Wait (42:16)
Have you ever wondered why God doesn’t speak to you more clearly? Could it be because you’re going so fast that you can’t hear his voice? Waiting rearranges our priorities, slows down our schedule, and forces us to listen to God. - Why You Need Your Enemies, and Your Enemies Need You. (41:46)
You need your enemies to help you become like Christ, and your enemies need you to become like Christ to them.
- Hold Lightly What You Value Greatly (47:24)
You can stop trying to hold on to things when you figure out that they never belonged to you in the first place.

On the Way to North Carolina
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, July 5
8:03 AM At the moment we are sitting at the Delta terminal at Kennedy Airport in New York waiting for our flight to Raleigh, NC. This is the final stop on our trip that began two weeks ago when we left Tupelo for the MEF Conference in Colorado Springs (that seems like a long time ago) and then on to Schroon Lake in upstate New York for a very busy …
You Can Reach a Prodigal Too Soon
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Thursday, July 3
Tonight I met a pastor who shared a thoughtful insight with me. Sometimes in our attempt to reach out to the prodigals we know, we can intervene too soon. Do remember what happened to the prodigal son in Luke 15? After he had wasted all his inheritance in wild living, he ended up feeding the pigs. As Eugene Peterson puts it, “He was...
Preaching from 1 Corinthians 13
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, July 2
We are having a busy, productive week at Word of Life in upstate New York. During my morning sessions I decided to preach from 1 Corinthians 13. It has been personally challenging to meditate on phrases such as love “does not envy, does not boast, is not proud, is not rude, does not seek its own, and is not easily provoked.” On Monday I...
Lie Low and Exalt Christ
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Monday, June 30
After the service tonight, we attended a get-together at the home of Wayne & Ruthie Lewis. Near the end Wayne asked Don Lough to share his vision for the future of Word of Life. In three years Don will become the new Executive Director of the worldwide ministry of Word of Life. During his talk Don shared that when he was named to succeed J…
Hello from Word of Life
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, June 28
Twenty-four hours ago we were in Colorado Springs. Tonight we are at beautiful Word of Life Inn in Schroon Lake, New York. As Jack Wyrtzen liked to say, we are high in the Adirondack Mountains, north of Albany and south of Lake Placid. I first came to Word of Life in the summer of 1971 when I was a student at Tennessee Temple College in Chattanooga...
Final Night of the MEF Bible Conference
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, June 27
I am writing this note at 10:54 PM from our hotel room in Colorado Springs. We just returned from the final service of the MEF Bible Conference. Tonight we heard a deeply moving message on forgiveness from Tom Eliff and then Erwin Lutzer spoke on “Is God On America’s Side?” Plus we had music by Russell Newport,John Hall, Scott Cam...
Cold in Alaska
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, June 25
Today I had the unique pleasure of giving my testimony at the MEF Bible Conference in Colorado Springs. It was unique because this year for the first time, they are asking the speakers to take a few minutes to share how they were saved. It was unique in another, deeper sense. Although I came to faith in Christ 39 years ago, I have rarely told …

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Tuesday, June 24
Tonight at 9 ET (8 CT) PBS is running a special called Jesus in China. The show feature Chicago Tribune bureau chief Evan Osnos as he investigates the amazing growth of the Christian church in China. Check out this story he wrote called Jesus in China: Life on the Edge. The article includes this very impressive audio slideshow. Because the church i...
Carol Kent at the MEF Conference
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Tuesday, June 24
The MEF Bible conference always begins with a Monday seminar that runs from 9 AM-3:15 PM. Yesterday 500 people gathered in a local hotel for the seminar. Carol Kent spoke twice and held us spellbound with the story of how their son was convicted and sent to prison for first-degree murder. You can read about it in her book When I Lay My Isaac Down. ...
First Stop: Colorado Springs
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, June 22
We’re up early this morning because we’ll be traveling all the day, partly because we’ve got a long way to go and partly because there is no quick way to get from Tupelo to Colorado Springs. All week long we (I mean Marlene mostly) have been packing and getting things ready for this first leg of our summer conference schedule...
This Side of Heaven
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, June 21
On June 4 I wrote an entry called We Need Another Miracle, Lord about our dear friend Heather Bosgraf who had surgery that day to remove a tumor at the base of her brain. Though the surgery was successful in removing the tumor, she never fully regained consciousness. An MRI late last week showed that the cancer was spreading and had returned to the...
