Some may question my inclusion of this in a “Best of Brazil” post. After all, it’s an outlaw fleeing police and committing numerous traffic violations in the process. But every time I watch it, all I see are two artists at work. The guy in front leads the police on a wild five-minute chase through…
A few days ago I posted some clips from the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the Cariri Baptist Seminary in 1996, an event in which I had the privilege of participating. After I published the article a friend of mine edited the clip down to just the section featuring the choir. I thought that would make…
Last summer a team came down from the US, and in the course of their stay one of the men bought a cake from a local vendor at an exorbitant price. When I found out about it, I laughed and told him “Welcome to Brazil!” Later, as we were discussing the day’s events, the group…

Itacyara doing some “essential quality control” on the camp water slide. _____________________ Did you enjoy this…
The following video, taken recently here in São Luís, raises so many questions…and even more when you realize it is a drivers education car!

As we prepare to go in-depth into the life of the biblical David we are taking some time to set up some essential background. Last week we started by looking into the life of the founder of the Israelite tribe into which David was born, Judah. If you haven’t read that yet, I would highly…
