Last Friday, I walked the first “breadth” or SPUR off #TheLongWalkUSA main route, carrying the cross and a U.S. flag in distress.  While several from our local church joined up with other brethren to lift up voices outside the Planned Parenthood in Asheville, North Carolina, we walked from that death mill to the junction with the Blue Ridge Parkway off US 25, a 6-mile spur.

Greetings, beloved brethren, in the name of the Promised Messiah. His name is JESUS, “for he shall save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21). I trust you all enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with much cause for thanksgiving, and I pray this Advent Season brings you much joy and reflection upon what is most important: JESUS CHRIST IS COMING. That inescapable inevitability has been true since the Garden of Eden, was true that quiet night in Bethlehem, and remains true today. Regardless of when, where, and how America falls, THE FUTURE IS CHRIST. Joy to the world!

Greetings, dear friends! I have a question. It’s the same question the famous Baptist missionary Adoniram Judson asked after the LORD turned his captivity from harsh persecution in Burma in 1826. It’s also the same question the Psalmist asked under inspiration of the Holy Ghost: “What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me (Psalm 116:12)?” Your prayers I requested back in July for wisdom and discernment were all answered with EXCLAMATION. We have much for which to be thankful.

Back on June 25th, we resumed #TheLongWalkUSA from the abandoned barn on Heine Road in Stevens County, Washington. Since, we have logged nearly 300 walking miles with almost 100 Gospel encounters! The walking route has crossed the Columbia River, climbed up and over two mountain ranges (the Kettle Rivers and the Okanogans), slogged into a third mountain chain (the Northern Cascades) and to the summit of Mt. Baker, a big Cascade volcano near the Canadian border …

It was a gorgeous day here in the Pacific Northwest, barely a cloud in the sky, but the sun was blazing hot. By evening, we had resumed what we hope to be the last leg of #TheLongWalkUSA, logging 8 miles from the broken barn on Heine Rd. to Main Street in a little “West Virginia Hollow”—esque Washington community called Addy. Still, we remain unclear about the direction, but it felt good to put one foot in front of another …

If Christians took seriously Jesus’ very simple instructions in Matthew 18:15-20 and actually followed them, perhaps 99% of problems in the local church, including those PARADED as doctrinal, would be resolved. Sadly, we don’t follow these instructions, and once strong relationships in ministry sometimes crumble to dust. It’s a sad reality of the Christian life and of Christian ministry and will be so until our Lord returns …

In my last post (December 19), I promised a recap of some of our time spent on the last leg of #thelongwalkusa, before we were unjustly arrested and charged for simply defending ourselves from a rabid mongrel who cursed God, cursed us for walking into Montana, and physically assaulted Jesse Boyd. I apologize that I am quite late in fulfilling this promise. I am a very slow writer …

Greetings, brethren, in the name of our Saviour and King, Jesus the Christ. In some upcoming posts, Eric Trent will be recapping in detail the segment of #TheLongWalkUSA that continued from where I last left you at the foot of the Bighorn Mountains back on September 22nd. We had walked halfway across the State of Wyoming and were then able to share some SOME FINE TESTIMONY. I pray you are encouraged by his words in these very dark and troubling times for America, when righteousness is guilty until proven innocent, when truth is fallen into the streets, and when a street preacher is ALWAYS to blame in any situation.
