Dedicated to the memory of
Richard (Dick) Anderson
March 19, 1913 - April 9, 2003
May his ministry of encouragement continue through every generation until the promise of Christ’s return is fulfilled.
This blog is published by Paul Anderson with its first daily post on January 1, 2016. The commentary in these daily devotionals are from selected writings of Richard (Dick) Anderson, a missionary with the Evangelical Free Church of America Missions in the Democratic Republic of Congo from 1939-1975. After retiring from active field service in Congo, Anderson continued serving the Evangelical Free Church Missions producing documentary films of their international fields until 1984.
During Anderson’s retirement he began a dial-in program called “Inspiration for Living” which delivered a daily recorded message. Any person could call in each day and hear a new 90 second recording which gave encouragement and hope and shared promises of God from the Word of God. The program lasted for 17 years. It was written and voiced by Richard Anderson and hosted by the Crossroads Church (formerly Evangelical Free Church) in Turlock, California.
The 2016 entries in this blog are from a year's worth collection of “Inspiration for Living” and was edited by Richard’s wife Dorothy Anderson. That collection has been published as a book and is available from purchase at Amazon.com - "90 Seconds with God's Promises."
Most of the entries from 2016-2019 are directly from the words originally written by Richard Anderson. Some have been edited to fit the format of this blog and a broader audience because they were first written as a voiced message for one specific audience. Only four years worth of archives were saved and available. Beginning with the October 1 2019, verses previously presented will be visited again seeking more that can be gleaned out of them. Entries from that date and on will include some re-postings from previous entries but most will be written by Paul Anderson keeping to the spirit and intent of the original style and purpose to encourage the reader and strengthen their hope and faith walk.
Paul Anderson is the third child of Richard and Alpha Anderson. He was born at mission station Karawa in 1950 before Belgium Congo gained Independence on June 30, 1960. For twelve of his first sixteen years he lived in the Democratic Republic of Congo and for a year in Central African Republic. He attended the Ubangi Academy (UBAC) at Karawa, DRC; UBAC in Exile at Bozoum/Bata CAR, The American School of Kinshasa (TASOK) on the African continent. Paul has a BA in Bible Theology from Moody Bible Institute. He and his wife Kathy live in Longview, Texas.
