Our last morning in Korea was spent at a monthly Bible study for the Steering Committee for Far East Broadcasting Company, the radio station that interviewed me last week. Billy Kim (photo above), who oversees the FEBC, was the translator for Billy Graham during his 1973 crusade. Since then, Billy...

Just to share that God used you mightily this morning at my church (Faith Community Baptist, http://FCBC.org.sg) to minister through the outstanding gifts he has given to you. Eric Liddell's story and theme of "complete surrender" inspires and lifts us up spiritually to be champions for G...

My camera phone doesn't capture them, but we can see 10 red crosses of churches from one window in the Seoul Tower.

This morning I was interviewed on the Far East Broadcasting Company, and the interview will go out to the regions indicated on this map.

After the interview I got to perform Big Fish/Little Worm for Billy Kim and his staff at Far East Broadcasting Company. Dr. Kim is the grandfather of my former t...

One of the pastors at Faith Community Baptist Church estimated that there were about 5,600 people at last week's Sunday morning service at the Singapore Expo, where I performed Beyond the Chariots just a few days after the Youth Olympics closing ceremonies.

Students spend five hours studying here and only sleep that same amount.

A rooster crowed just as I snapped this shot of Suwon, Korea, at sunrise. We're off to perform Big Fish Little Worm and Beyond the Chariots for the US Army 8th Command, stationed in Seoul.

Earlier on this trip we performed Beyond the Chariots with Korean translations at Wonchon Baptist Church, he...

This is a traditional Korean farmers' dance. I can't imagine they work in the fields dressed in white!

Joyce and I are in the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea. One half of this sphere is missing North Korea. The other half is missing South Korea. This sculpture is a sort of enacted prayer for the reunification of Korea.

You can see photos of the inside of each half of the sphere un...

We just surfaced after walking down into one of four tunnels that the North Koreans created in a plan to launch a surprise attack South Korea in the 70's. This one was revealed by a gentleman who defected to South Korea.

We were unable to take photos in the tunnel itself, but the walls were painte...

Joyce and I woke in the night to the sound of a storm. This morning we discovered that it was a typhoon that destroyed dozens of trees on the campus where we're staying. Many schools were closed throughout Korea, but we're thanking the Lord that the school where I taught today stayed open. Yay!

This building was created for families separated by the division to meet in the DMZ, but North Korea has never allowed citizens to leave so the building only welcomes tourists.

This design indicates the clasped hands of unification.
