In Japan, if you are lonely, you don’t have to be alone. You can rent a family or friends. Loneliness has reached epidemic proportions in Japanese society, but God has a cure for the epidemic. He is a “father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,” and He “sets the lonely in families.” And He is sending a gregarious, joy-filled family to Japan to plant a community of believers that will become a family where God will place the lonely.
Church Planting Along a Japanese Travel Corridor

Lift Up Your Eyes
Those Muslims are all terrorists. All they want to do is kill us. I hate them. If there was a Muslim standing right here in front of me, I would show him how we treat terrorists here in America … I don’t understand why we let so many immigrants into our country. All they do is take American jobs. And if they don’t have a job, the government takes care of them. They should go back to where they came from. We don’t want them here.
