Honoring

Aug 31, 2024

I’m pausing for a bit to recognize two people I’ve personally met who went ahead to be with Jesus yesterday. Doug McClure and Bruce Thompson. Their lives ripple across God’s kingdom in two main arenas. Biblical counseling, and the beauty of music. Both are healing ministries.

Doug McClure, his wife Noelle and their five children drastically changed their lifestyle to be here in YWAM Kona. He started teaching children in different parts of the world how to play instruments, mostly stringed, and this transformed their lives, a balm in the midst of grinding life circumstances. He was doing this in Papua New Guinea when he suffered a heart attack at the age of 61.

Bruce Thompson and his wife Barbara impacted every DTS student just as much as Loren Cunningham did. Their life-giving words spoke freedom via their Plumbine teaching and much more. Reconstructing the way we think about ourselves, and about Jesus’ power to heal the inner person.

I’m heading to the Philippines today to gather with the YWAM family. I’ll be photographing events, which can later be found at thema.smugmug.com. I’m requesting prayer, and if you wish to donate, click on Donate to Thema
