A view of faith

I struggle daily to seek God's grace, love and acceptance, such as found in just a few select passages: Luke 15:1-2; Luke 14:23-24; Luke 7:9; John 4; Acts 15; among the countless others.

The Entire Story -- A Bio

Before I begin any deep details, let me introduce myself by way of my biography from the 2006 Tengesdal-Lerfald family history book, "Mountains, Fjords, Prairies":

The Testimony -- Feb 21, 1999

“Behold, my servant is dead. Arise and cross this river” (Joshua 1:2). This is a most difficult letter that must be written. I have put it off long enough and in direct opposition to God’s leading. I must cross this river. This letter is going to family members and to those who have known the past.
