Getac Laptop on solo rowing trip across the Atlantic
A British adventurer has broken the world record for rowing solo across the Atlantic Ocean, relying on little more than a six metre rowboat and a Getac rugged laptop.

Want to see what a depressed missionary looks like?
August 29, 2014 Want to see what a depressed missionary looks like? That’s a picture of me, in April 2003 when I was suffering from major depression with a little side of psychosis every now and again. A depressed missionary looks a lot like an un-depressed missionary. I think depressed missionaries are like depressed regular people: we’re all really good at keeping the pain hidden away. We’re not sure if it’s safe to tell the truth about how we really feel. Yesterday, a friend of mine asked me how long it took me to write As Soon As I Fell. […]

Puerto Rico Relief Fund – The power of connecting
We have just heard from APBM Missionary Andy Sharpeta on Viesques Island, Puerto Rico. He was able to borrow the Mayor’s satellite phone to make the call, the only one on the island. Andy, his wife and four children are all safe. Anything built of wood on the island is pretty much gone. They have enough food and water for the time being; most folks do not. Andy has been given a line of credit to get food for distribution to people who are without. He has a small generator that helps for some things, but I imagine that gasoline will be […]

The Impossible Route
THE IMPOSSIBLE ROUTE Everyone has their own impossible route. It might be climbing a volcano or finishing a single mile. The impossible route documentary series is about capturing the story and the adventure of cyclists trying to accomplish what might be considered impossible. This endeavor is not about racing; it’s about finding adventure, pushing the limit, and then going beyond what is thought to be possible. The first impossible route expedition took place on Mauna Kea in 2020. The adventure has continued ever since, with two seasons of expeditions filmed and plans for season 3. The vision is to grow this inspiration into […]
