Grace! and Peace! to you in King Jesus, the one who has proven to us that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is a Father, our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (Ps 46:1).

I recently turned 65, and a routine medical exam indicated a possible problem, leading us through multiple doctors and tests during the seasons of Thanksgiving and Incarnation. The preliminary diagnosis was recently confirmed: an aggressive form of prostate cancer.

If you would like, we invite you to walk with our family through this health challenge.

CaringBridge is a non-profit website dedicated to doing just that. It will serve as the narrow end of a communication funnel related to my health; a place for me to provide updates and for you to leave notes or simply “heart” a post. You can click here to connect with my personal page on CaringBridge.*

Regarding JC Studies, I want you to know that all is well. We have a dynamic team, including a godly Board of Directors, and a good plan already in place as we continue our work to connect the Testaments for this generation.

Because of faithful haverim (friends) like you, we enter 2026 with excitement. The latest monthly audio teaching in the Book of Acts is available on Spotify or our website, while our Sabbath Devotional kicked off the year with a new series of articles featuring Dwight A. Pryor, entitled “Olive Tree Theology.”

Glad you stopped by to read my post.

Immanuel! friends ~ James C. Whitman
