Last year I made...
So this guy from Louisville is starting a church in Uptown (New Orleans), and he and his posse came into town this week to check the place out. I spent Wednesday night chillin’ with all of them and Amy (from here). It was cool meeting him and the posse, but that’s not what...
Why do you go? The easiest and hardest question asked.
We were allowed to go. That’s why we went. It’s that simple, and it’s just as complex. I could tell you all the reasons we went- the lack of a substantial Christian witness in Village S, among the Buryats, and throughout Siberia....
When the Soviets took control of Russia, millions of people were relocated. Asian Siberians moved west, European Russians moved east. Distinctive people groups were assimiliated into large groups of multi-ethnic families. The Soviets did this to eliminate ethic unity and to broaden the Soviet identity throughout the Union.
