Before I begin, let me introduce myself. My name is Mike Juntunen. I am married and have three grown sons and seven grandchildren. I graduated from Open Bible College in 1977 and have been involved in ministry since that time. My wife, Nancy, and I pastored various churches for 30 years before entering the mission field. We were the directors of INSTE Bible College in Hungary for 10 years, and for 2 years ministered in the Open Bible Church in Gherla, Romania. We currently are the pastors of the Church of the Open Bible in Hardin, MT.
One of the things God has taught me over the years is the importance of not just obtaining information about God and His Word, but also of applying the Word of God to our lives. Therefore, the purpose of this blog is to share some of my thoughts and experiences about God and His Word with the hope that it will encourage you to dig deeper into the text, learn what it meant to the original readers of the Scripture, and then discover the meaning that you can apply to your life today. My goal is to not only help you grow in your knowledge of Scripture but that you will also experience a transformation in your life as you begin to apply the truths of God’s Word and “do what Jesus did”.
I am looking forward to our time together and pray that you will be blessed.
