After nearly 63 years of marriage, Jim Bounds said: “I respect Doris more now than the day we married!” Just a few months after a radio interview with Doris Bounds (available for on demand listening on this website), this precious lady went to be with the Lord she loved so much and served so well. Doris was amazed once she stopped to count the number of home countries of the internationals that she and Jim had hosted in their home: 46 that she could remember! Indeed, especially upon her “Homegoing,” her large family and many friends, including scores of international, all “…rise up to call her blessed!” During the interval between Doris’ death and her funeral, Philippines’ native Ed Moncada — Minister to International Students for the Missouri Baptist Convention — and I reflect on the beautiful, very-Jesus-like life of Doris Bounds. Within a week of her death, as she lay on her bed, Ed went to her home in North St. Louis, MO, County. They joyfully shared a one-on-one experience of worshiping Jesus. They had “church” together. – This interview ranks right at the top of the most moving radio experiences of which I have ever been a part.
