Rena Van Til

Many of the readers of this blog will know something of my gratitude to God for having grown up around Dr. John H. Skilton and Dr. Cornelius VanTil. Drs. Skilton and VanTil were best friends, who, after the death of Dr. VanTil’s wife, Rena, labored together in evangelistic and mercy ministry work in the Vietnamese section of Philadelphia–among other places. I was going through some old tapes today and came across a copy of Dr. Skilton’s sermon that he preached at Rena’s funeral on January 11, 1978. You can listen to it here.

    The designers add fancy details and vintage touches such as
    lace, ruffles and silk flowers. However one should try knowing certain things before they actually start purchasing clothes from online shopping,
    because everyone must know what they are actually looking
    for. At one time western wear was a way of life;
    the cowboy hat, jeans, pointy boots and uniquely western shirts for men meant that a he earned his pay by working on a farm
    or ranch feeding livestock, branding cattle, mending fences, clearing brush and moving livestock to a greener pasture.
