Paul wrote this epistle from prison in Rome where he had plenty of time as he awaited his trial. Daille wrote, "The imprisonment of St. Paul has done the church more good than the prosperity of the rest of the faithful of that age." This letter was written the same time as the letter to the Ephesians and Philemon, and they all seem to be delivered by the same messengers, Tychicus and Onesimus who was returning to his master, Philemon, who lived in Colosse.
It was rare to come across one who was blind from birth. Many became blind in later life, but to be blind from birth was so extreme that people assumed that there had to be some extreme sin somewhere in the family to account for such a radical judgment on a child.

The fundamental points of Chinuch: start when a child is young and it has to be age appropriate and then continue as the child gets older. Chinuch has to be על פי דרכו – according to the innate natures that Hashem gave the child. It means to accept a child’s limitations and recognise their abilities. If rebuke has to take place, it has to be positive. The parents must give over their message in the same voice. The primary mode of Chinuch today is by role modelling, primarily our motivations.

2. our international headquarters to tour The Book Shoppe
& Coffee. Impressed, Keith suggested Bill visit David in
Panama during harvest season.
Finding the World’s Best Coffee
Winter 2018, Bill and Jeremy Brudwick, our director of
Operations, landed in Panama and settled in for a week
at David’s home, 5,000 feet up the side of Baru Volcano.
As they were driving out to the plantation to see the
harvesting process, Bill told David, “Put us to work!”
“We wanted to learn why you pick some beans and
leave others on the branches. We wanted to carry the
bags to where the beans are dried and sorted,” Bill recalls.
“Those bags are 100 pounds, and so David said, ‘Sure!’
We did everything from picking and carrying to sorting
and re-bagging, floating the beans in a unique water
system that David designed just for his plantation.”
Upon retiring from NASA, David pursued a
successful career in photography. But three years ago, he
felt led to join the coffee business that extends through
At the end of the service, Lia Pech worked her
way down the aisle of Stonebriar Community
Church in Frisco, Texas, to meet senior pastor-
teacher Chuck Swindoll and his wife, Cynthia. Lia
had waited for this moment ever since she first heard
“Finding Healing through Forgiveness.”
“Cynthia,” Lia said taking her hand, “your testimony
changed my life.” After chatting a few minutes, Cynthia
turned to Lia’s husband and asked, “What do you do?”
“Well,I’maretiredNASAengineer,”Davidanswered,
“and now I run a coffee plantation in Panama.” Cynthia’s
eyes twinkled; this was no chance encounter. She smiled
at David and Lia, “Boy, do I have somebody who needs
to meet you!”
• • •
Over the last nearly 40 years, Chuck and Cynthia
have learned to recognize those “only-God moments”
that have built Insight for Living Ministries into
a multifaceted ministry intent on Vision 195, our
mission to reach all 195 nations and their 6,875 heart
languages. Even so, when Cynthia connected David to
Bill Gemaehlich, she had no idea just how big God’s
plan was.
As Insight for Living Ministries’ executive vice
president and chief operations officer, Bill has overseen
the construction and design of the ministry’s newest
outreach: The Book Shoppe & Coffee. The Lord has
paired Bill’s decades of leadership experience with
a passion for mentoring and a refined coffee palate,
making him the perfect person to direct this project—
from helping select the antique wood beams that create
the shoppe’s old-world feel . . . to hiring baristas with
coffee-making skills and hearts for evangelism . . . to
stocking the coffee bar with the world’s best beans. And
it just so happens that some of the finest and rarest
beans grow in Panama’s rich, volcanic soil.
After Bill and David connected via e-mail, David’s
son, Keith, who’s a part of the family business, visited
five generations of Lia’s family, the Ruizes. Since then,
he’s been developing a new, unconventional way of
growing and harvesting beans. David calls it the “Noble
Process.” Why? “Because,” as David says, “It’s a noble
thing to do.” It’s a process that began with questioning
why the coffee business does what it’s always done and
how it could be better . . . and it’s resulted in an innovated
water system that not only improves the quality and
efficiency of the plantation’s output but also provides
hot water and showers for the Ngobe people who work
on the plantation. And this is where the story really gets
exciting. . . .
Reaching the World through Coffee
When the idea of our opening a bookstore and coffee
shop first came about, we decided two things. First, if
we do this, it has to play a meaningful role in Vision 195.
Second, either we do this with excellence, or we don’t
do it at all. Impacting our local community in Frisco,
Texas, is a natural way The Book Shoppe & Coffee
will further Vision 195. We quickly determined we
would also serve quality coffee from around the world,
featuring different countries and dedicating a portion of
the proceeds to ministering in those countries.
However, acquiring the expensive, illustrious coffee
that grows in Panama never crossed our minds! We had
no idea that one of the most prominent coffee-growing
families in Panama not only loved the Lord but had
been impacted by the Swindolls and had a heart for
reaching the indigenous Ngobe people they employ.
And we certainly didn’t know we would be meeting
that family shortly before The Book Shoppe & Coffee
officially opened its doors!
As Bill and Jeremy dined with the Ruiz family at
the historic Hotel Panamonte in Boquete, Panama, Bill
shared with them that we would like to “sew” ministry
seeds back into every country that provides us with
coffee beans. “Our goal,” Bill explained, “is to teach—
in every nation and every language—the study and
application of God’s Word in an accurate, practical
way. We’re working on getting Chuck’s Searching
the Scriptures book and curriculum translated into
other languages. And we plan to train pastors from
each country to use Searching the Scriptures to help
indigenous pastors understand how to study, apply, and
share God’s Word.”
The table erupted with a flurry of excited Spanish
phrases! Bill’s and Jeremy’s hearts raced. “We don’t need
U.S. Christians to show us how to evangelize,” David
said. “We know how to evangelize our people. But what
we DO need is better knowledge about Scripture—how
to study, interpret, and apply it.”
David’s sister-in-law Maria smiled enthusiastically,
“Okay, let’s stop talking theory. Pragmatically, how do
you make it happen?”
• • •
“Coffee from Panama was a door we didn’t expect to
open,” Bill says. “So when it did, we thought, We’ve got
to do this! We went there for a procurement trip and
found another, completely unexpected open door into
ministry.”
This May, our Spanish-language pastor, Carlos
Zazueta, and our director of our Guatemala office, Jorge
Ponce, will travel to Panama to meet the Ruiz family.
Together, they’ll begin making plans for a potential
Searching the Scriptures training conference for local
pastors.
Meanwhile, the intoxicating smells of delicious
Panamanian coffee will float through The Book Shoppe
& Coffee, mingling with the prayers of our staff as
they brew coffee, stock bookshelves, and engage in
conversations with customers. And behind each of
their name badges will beat the heart of a passionate
believer, ever intent on listening and looking for those
“only-God moments” that are making Vision 195
become a reality.
