Ken’s Thoughts

  • So How Many?? - “Do you have an idea how many people PPI training reaches?” A PPI friend asked me this question recently. He was thinking not only of church leaders who take our courses, but people in their churches and beyond. It got me thinking – and excited! The short answer is, Only the Lord knows how many […]
  • PPI Rasanble Recap - Rena and I first thought of hosting a PPI update event in 2019 just before COVID-19 closed down most gatherings of people. On May 3, 2022, we did it – with the support of PPI Board members and the Davidson’s Community Group! Rasanble is a Creole word that means “a gathering of people for a […]
  • We’re Ready to Go! - You know those times when you’re puzzling and praying over the best way to do something – and then the light goes on? That happened to me in Gonaives, Haiti, a few weeks ago, and I’m excited to tell you about it! But first an update on our latest training conferences. Conferences From February 21-March […]
  • Ready to Rasanble? - Rasanble is Creole for “a gathering of people for a purpose.” We’re putting together a PPI gathering on Tuesday, May 3, from 6:00-8:00pm for food, info and conversation. YOU’RE INVITED! Join us in person at the Anderson Center in Saginaw or on Facebook Live – @partnershipofpastors. Come when you can and leave when you need to! […]
  • Decisions and Questions - I’ve had a good first week back – thanks be to God. Rena and I have had good time to talk, walk, pray and spend time with family and friends this week. I’m still spilling over with our time in Haiti. Rena says I talk fast and nonstop when I first get back, but I […]
  • Driving and Doing - I think we’d all agree that we shouldn’t text and drive though some of us do it anyway. Much less should we drink and drive – at least not alcohol. But we can and should make the most of our time while traveling especially when we travel alone. I’ve tried to do that on this […]
  • Beyond Our Expectations! - I arrived in Dallas after midnight Friday night. Rena flew in around the same time. I was coming from Haiti to take part in Dallas Seminary’s missions week. Rena came for a long weekend with me and our daughter, Katie, a second-year student at the seminary. I planned to rest a little and enjoy time […]
  • Did You Know? - Spending time with Haitian church leaders and working with our Haitian ministry team is more fun than a person should be allowed to have! But I thought you also might enjoy some fast facts, smells, sights and sounds from this trip to Haiti. Fast Facts About This Trip Dates – Feb 20-March 4, 2022 # […]
  • Great Fruit in Gonaives - We finished training 115 pastors in Gonaives a few hours ago. We are weary but still excited about the great fruit for Christ here. As in Cap Haitien, church leaders were especially attentive and hard-working. Again and again, they thanked us for coming to Gonaives to train them and asked us to return to train them […]
  • Faith Stories from Haiti – Part 2 - “Father, your will is for your ways and your saving power to be known among all nations.” (Psalm 67:1-2) I awoke this morning with this prayer on my lips. This amazing opportunity to gather church leaders, open the Scriptures and train them in Biblical pastoral ministry is God’s work, not our idea. I’m convinced of […]
