What's This Support Stuff About?

I've been "on support," responsible for raising deputation; whatever term you like, since 1978.
I am fervently "pro-support." Not only do folks invest financially to keep me in the work; but they pray! It's kind of like the mastercard commercial...gas, $3.50 per gallon; motel $59.00; prayers - priceless.
I've seen too many people scared of suppport raising, and too many drop out of ministry because of not maintaining support.
I certainly don't have all the answers, but I have over three decades of experience, and I desire to encourage, exhort, and educate anyone who will accept help.
I am currently transitioning from two decades of service with Family Life Ministries in New York to Midland Ministries in Saint Joseph, Mo.
So this is a work in progress...but if you have questions, feel free to connect.
