Some have asked, "What do you actually do?" A typical day for me usually begins at 5 am online because it is already noon in the Middle East. Breakfast with the fam then we read one of the 3 chapters from the Bible that will be taught by us men at house church that Sunday. Then I'm back online to continue relationships through conversations and messages. After lunch, I usually take a 20-minute nap. So much screen time means I need to do burpees, squats, run, walk/talk with my wife, or shoot basketball with the kids in the church/school gym... which is a huge blessing. My schedule is very flexible... which is another huge blessing. I usually finish my work online at 6 pm then walk 30 seconds to my home for dinner... another huge blessing! In the evenings we might play games (current favorite is Monopoly Deal), sing these worship songs, or watch these videos. For a few hours each week, I usually visit a few friends to discuss family or church or missions. Saturday is the day off so we do fun stuff... anything but screen time.

I leave next week for 3 weeks in the region, including 4 days at a conference to connect with leaders from the Middle East and North Africa to discuss shepherding in the home and in the church. Please pray for these conversations and for relationships to continue online.
