About Me

Revival is believers ignited by the love and victory of Christ. It is church growth measured not in ones and twos, but exponentially. It is your family and friends finding new life in the Lord Jesus. Isn’t this the desire of our hearts? God is the only One who can bring this kind of awakening. That is why the great revivals have always started with extended, fervent prayer. What would happen if we all raised our voices together in prayer and invited Christians all over the world to join us? We would experience the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to such an extent that the church would never be the same.
Hi, I'm Debbie Penner, Missionary in Japan. I live with my daughter, teach English and have a small internet business to make ends meet. I'm asking for at least 100 people who will agree to pray for me and the church here in Japan daily. Did you know that if you pray, and I get to lead someone to the Lord her in Japan as a result, that you will be considered even more responsible for that person's salvation than me?
We are praying for revival in Kurume, Japan. Won’t you join us? Lets unite in a great chorus of prayer, and ask God to change Japan forever!

People in home business to network with. (Hey, I found this great e-book about getting leads for free. I'm always printing out e-books and then never getting around to reading them. This one, I read every word, and it works! Click Here if you want it too.)

Kayakers...especially folding kayak owners.

Music:

Celebrant Singers Plus One OLD Babyface tracks Sting Spanish Guitar

Movies:

Pay Forward Ben Hur Fidler on the Roof Fried Green Tomatoes and of course, since I AM female, Sleepless in Seatle

Television:

I really don't watch TV. BBC is about it. Maybe someday when my business is booming, I've read all the good books, and my church work is at a much more advanced stage than it is now.

Books:

The Narnia Books. Is that a little juvenile? But I still do enjoy them. Right now I'm reading the Book of God by Walter Wangerin Jr., and an out-of print explanation of the Hound of Heaven from 1922. I also love the People Stories by Zenna Hendersen.

How important is this? Well, I just spent 90 min. composing this blog, and when I pushed publish, it disappeared. Now I'm rewriting it, but obviously, it's a spiritual battle just to get the word out!...
