For those of you who don’t travel 146 much into Oldham County, there’s a church billboard sporting the perfect Derby-week message: “Bet on the man riding the donkey.”
That’s exactly what we’re doing. We have insider information. Christ is the Victor. And, there’s no crime in letting others in on this good news!
“And the disciples went and . . . brought the donkey . . . and laid on . . . their garments, on which He sat . . . and the multitudes going before Him, and those followed after were crying out, saying ‘Hosanna to the Son of David’.” (excerpts from Matthew 2:6-9)
Our hearts cry, “Hosanna!” Our Savior has won on our behalf! We continue to give praise and glory to the One who is preeminent!
Little Update:
-No weight gain yet, but no more weight lost either. Praying for a completely healed GI track.
-Oncologist appointment next Monday; may be having a chest x-ray. Praying for all clear!
-Strength increasing as my body continues to heal. Praying for consistent strength.
Your faithful prayers and serving continue to support us so graciously. You are loved!

Good morning Kristen,
I just wanted to write and tell you we have been praying for you and Ben Thompson. I have been having some medical issues and have also been praying to God for his healing and guidance. I am unable to take the medicine that is needed, so I have to go a different route. This morning I turned on a show I watch occasionally and the lady from another show I watch on Friday’s called Living Beyond Organic with Justin Rubin was on today. She is called The Juice Lady. God gave her a vision many years ago when she was ill about our food and what she would need to do to get well and that she was to show others. She was healed. She also talked about the body being alkaline now, which led her to speak of a lady who was sent home to die from cancer that had a mass the size of her fist who had nothing to lose and also saw her on a show and called. She guided her in what to do and juicing. Within months she was better and 6 years later declared cancer free. Praising God. Now to you. Right after I had watched, I started going about my morning and checked my e-mail seeing your update. Immediately God spoke to my heart and instructed me to tell you about this. If you would like more info her names is Cherie Calbom, The Juice Lady. I just finished looking her up and watched her speak with Dr. Mercola whom I have followed for many years and Doug Kaufman. We will continue to pray for you daily and will be awaiting your miracle from God. Following Christ’s guidance.
