Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven (Matthew 5:14-16KJV).
Amazon River Mission Trip
Bible study time on the Amazon River, Brazil. Franklin Whittenburg writing notes for the book When Faith Came.
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15KJV).
Current project: Saving some new genetic mutations in cats.
In 2004, the Lord decided that He wanted a new cat breed in the earth and placed some stray kittens with some very odd genetic mutations in the backyard of the Whittenburg home. The kittens fur was curly with an genetic mutation that causes the hairshaft to sparkle and shine like it has been sprinkled with "gold dust". This new cat breed I have named the Tennessee Rex (T-Rex) and the shiney fur mutation I have named "satin". The cats have a nice dark red color that I have yet to name. Because of all of these exotic mutations on one cat breed, the Tennessee Rex has been called "the most beautiful of all rexed breeds". To God be the Glory!
The Lord has tasked me with preserving these beautiful and very exotic native Tennessee cats. By preserving and naming this new cat breed, God has also allowed me the same honor that He first gave Adam and let me participate in the same purpose that man was originally tasked with. To take care of His creation (Genesis 2:15KJV). I give God all the Glory for these beautiful and unique native Tennessee cats.
"And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. (Genesis 2:19KJV).

Gifts of God
After my spiritual conversion experience (i.e. born again) the ability to create "something out of nothing" (i.e. inspiration) suddenly appeared. Ideas for spiritual books, art, and inventions flooded in. Please read the study "Who Are You? Spiritual Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding" for a detailed explanation of spiritual inspiration / innovation and it's difference from imagination. This new inspiration led to a US patented invention, books, and spiritual artwork. God has done many wonderful and interesting things in my life since my spiritual conversion and I believe that God also holds much more for your life than you can possabilly imagine. Yes, some of it has come with persecutions and trials (1 Peter 4:12, Mark 10:28-31), but the positives far outway the negatives. I am sharing this look into my life on this page to show you that if you give your life to Jesus, He will give His life to you. What you think you maybe lacking in ability to serve God, I have found He will abundantly supply. In His Service,
Franklin Whittenburg
