This and That

Greetings Friends,

It's been a long time since my last letter and we've been on the road for awhile. Brenda spent time with family in Washington State and I met her after driving to Orlando. We enjoyed the House of Hope conference and shared some time with special people like Bobby Conner, Chonda Pierce and Cory Russel. It was all very enjoyable. Brenda was amazing and awesome as a speaker - getting better every time.

REVIVAL MEETINGS IN ELGIN

We are excited about the Elgin Revival events coming up September 18-20 and 25-27. We are working on the brochure and will get our website updated soon. We have added many things to the itinerary that we have not yet posted, but we really want to focus on revival during this time.

SOME POLITICAL THOUGHTS

We are watching and praying as the political process unfolds. We are asking God for mercy and favor for America. Today we were encouraged by John McCain's choice for a running mate - a strong pro-life governor from Alaska. We believe God has answered the prayers of many Christians who have been disappointed somewhat by the first round of nominees. The Saddleback forum was quite encouraging and today was also a favorable sign for us.

I read a very insightful article a few moments ago and wanted to pass it on. It's about one of the nominees. I thought some of you might be interested. I copied the URL below. I trust you will be able to just click it and read.

THANKS

I can't say thanks enough to those who have supported us, especially when we are not doing a full slate of meetings or we are doing missions trips, etc. Your prayers and gifts have protected us from the devourer.

Please keep praying as I complete the major book project I am working on in the next two weeks. We don't know yet when it will be published. Please pray that all hindrances will be removed and this book gets launched. Sorry, I can't give any details, but please pray anyway. This is not just another one of my teaching books. It is someone else's story and will impact the world.

God bless you all,

Ben, Brenda, family and team
