I love Hungary! Specifically I love the Hungarian village in which I live -- Mikepercs. It is a little like living in an old Norman Rockwell painting -- only everyone speaks Hungarian.

First and foremost, I adore the works of Micheal Card whose songs have inspired indepth personal Bible studies and meditation on scripture. Casting Crowns is at the top of my list as well. Their "Love them Like Jesus" captures the essence of what I hope our ministry in Hungary is. And Swing music, just for fun.

Bible, of course -- Book of Hebrews currently. Any and all CS Lewis -- because he challenges readers to think along new avenues. All missionary biography type stuff. A Skeleton in God's Closet -- because it begs the question how would each of us respond if we had only faith and faith alone on which to stand.

"Let it be done to me ..."
Those were Mary's words in that incredible moment when Heaven came down and kissed earth and the Son of God was conceived in her.

Simple.
The word has a derogatory connotation.

Grouchy.
I don't need anyone to tell me. I know that's what I am today. I have no patience for anyone. No one can live up to my expectations. I am simply a grouch.
