Visit BiH

Lonely Planet's Best in Europe 2019 has Bosnia and Herzegovina in the #4 spot!

We so look forward to our time in this country; beyond its geographic beauty, we anticipate spending time learning the language and culture, and most importantly, interacting with the people!

This past Saturday we had the privilege of spending the evening with new Bosnian friends here in the greater Milwaukee area.  Their warmth, friendliness, giving, and incredible food were just a foretaste of what we pray will be many, many relationships in Bosnia, for His glory.

Taste and see

As we continue to work through the many logistics of this life change, from houses to jobs to cultures, I have camped in this passage by the Psalmist.  May this encourage you. May you seek, taste, see, take refuge in, and know God today.

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints,
for those who fear him have no lack!
The young lions suffer want and hunger;
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
- Psalm 34:8–10 (ESV)

Update: Other areas of this country are equally known for their beauty. Consider Mostar, or Split in nearby Croatia. Both also are stunning destinations.
