The next few blogs I have dreaded to write. Warren has taken a very bad turn and has deteriorated very quickly. At this point, I might rattle on from lack of sleep and being overwhelmed, but God has seen fit to end the battle of cancer for Warren. It will only be a matter of time. My heart is heavy with grief as I watch him. I know that God is taking him in his arms very soon, but we are not ready to see him go. Please pray for my family and especially my children as this is very difficult for adults to understand, but children... Warren was taken to the hospital on Monday because of severe pain and breathing problems. They put him on a Morphine pump and kept him overnight. Warren was told on Tuesday that his battle with cancer would not continue much longer. We prayed together and cried together and shared our hearts with each other. God gave us a precious time together with Him. By Tuesday night he was struggling with his breath again and having pain. On Wednesday morning he went to the office and they administered a diffent chemo that he could tolerate, but the Oxygen intake would not improve. They ended up taking him by ambulance to the hospital and let us know that it had become so bad that he only had a few hours to days. I watch him breath in and out and am so proud of my husband and this long battle he has fought. He does not communicate much right now and is in and out of sleep. All I have now is the moments that tick by and I cherish each moment his eyes open. I am reminded of God's wonderful goodness. Thank you for your prayers keep them coming. I will update again.

I will be praying. I cannot even imagine how difficult this must be. I am ashamed that I let time get away with me and have not kept up with things with you guys but I have not ceased to pray. I am praying for comfort, strength, love and a deep sense of God's abiding presence.
Tana, our hearts are with you and we certainly know the presence of God is dear in these times. We love you and Warren and are praying with and for you today and through this time. May the God of all comfort strengthen your heart and mind.
Tana,
I've never met your husband, but can tell he is a very special guy. I am so saddened that he is so sick. I will be praying for you all and hoping you feel God's arms wrapped around you during this time.
My prayers and tears are with you...

Hello Warren and Family, I just today became aware of your struggle, My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I remember some funny times back at MBBC especially Preacher boys. You always made me laugh and get in trouble w/ Mr. Lingle.
-Chris Hawk
Pastor Warren and Tana: We ended our service last night in prayer for you and your family. I know you have been so strong and kept going and are tired.

Tana,
Warren brought so much fun to campus in college. I'm sure he's been a joy to have as a husband and daddy as well.I will pray that the Lord will give you peace through this difficult time and for the words to say to your kids. Our prayers are with you.
Psalm 61:2b I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
My heart aches for all of you. I can't imagine the pain. Please remember that we have been and will continue to pray for your family. I pray that Warren can feel the love and prayers from people all over and that he will have peace.
Melissa Haines
We cannot say we understand; we can only say with the many others that, through tears, we are lifting your names to the throne of grace trusting His grace to be sufficient and His love unending. We love you.
Alisha (for the Vegter and Allen families)
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God's love and grace strengthen your hearts.
Tana, we are praying for your entire family, sending hugs to your kiddos as this is unimaginable for children especially to go thru.

Tana,
I lost my husband and daughter in August of 2006. I am so sorry for your pain during this time. I wish I could take it all away, but only God can. Trust in Him, cling to Him, and He will see you through. This is your time to be a testimony of God's grace to others, but most especially to show your children that God is real and that He does provide even when what we love the most is taken away. I showed the pictures of your children to my daughter (age 5) and she is praying for them as she knows what it is like to lose her daddy too. Our hearts are so heavy for you and we will be praying not just today but for many days ahead.
With love in Christ, the Kaufman family
Still lifting you all up in prayer....

There are so many things that I would like to say out of love and admiration for Warren. But, for now, please know that I am praying earnestly for you and your family. You all are such a blessing. If there is anything at all that I can do, please let me know.
Hi Tana and family. You are all in our prayers and I wish it were different, but we have to be ready for what God has for us all even if we don't want that to happen. I hope it is easy on him and as easy as possible for you and the family.
Love,
David
I do not know you or your family. But I cried when I thought of the pain that you must be suffering. My heart and prayers are for you this very hour. May God's grace and peace overwhelm your souls even now.
Tana,
We are in continual prayer for you, Warren, and the kids. Our hearts are with you even if we can't be physically with you. Brittany sends a hug to Maddie and Chloe! May you feel the power of all God's children praying for you! You are loved!
Bruce and Kathy Cournoyer
We are praying for you and your family!!

Although we cannot even begin to comprehend what you are going through we pray that God will give you peace and comfort! You are in our continual thoughts and prayers!

The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name.
Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me. You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings. Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.
God is in the midst of the pain. Praying for you and your children for today and the days to come.
Love, The Nobregas
This is the deliverance that God is giving you even though it may not be what you wanted. God's way is perfect. Praying for strength and peace at this time.
To all who are following so faithfully, I've just received a little update...Warren is in and out of consciousness, and his breathing has gone down to about 20 respirations per hour. Tana has at least tried to get a little bit of sleep. With every dip in his breathing, they try to get him back up to where he was, but he keeps slipping. It won't be long. Please pray, and I will also keep updating my Facebook page and my blog as well.
You all remain very close in our thoughts and prayers. Our entire church is praying for you as well. May God's love and care surround you in the hours and days to come. Blessings.
Your all are in our prayers, that God's grace will truly be sufficient through it all.
Joel & Dawn Gearhart
"I feel the touch of hands so kind and tender, they're leading me in paths that I must trod. I have no fear when Jesus walks beside me, for I'm sheltered safe within the arms of God..." I do not know the path you will walk, but I know our Savior is sheltering you all in His everloving arms. Kari
So very sorry---Warren's respiration is 20 per MINUTE, not hour!
Tana, You, Warren and the children are in my thoughts and prayers constantly. My heart is heavy for you but glad for Warren. He gets to go home where he will be cancer free for ever and ever. His testimony and your testimony as his wife have been a tremendous encouragement to me these past two years. Warren has fought a good fight. He has finished the race. He has kept the faith. Now he will receive his crown of righteousness from the Lord. What a fitting beginning for Warren.
We are praying for you during this difficult time. Our God truly is a
"shelter in the time of storm." May His love and comfort surround you all.
Love and prayers,
Anne (Ronemus) Binkley
Warren and Tana -
My heart breaks for you all. I am praying that the peace of the Lord will surround and keep you through His plan for you. Your testimony is such a challange and encouragement to all who read it.
Laurie Pfaffe
Warren and Tana,
I knew you both in college. Many years have passed. Tana, your words in your last post ripped my heart out. I don't know what to say except to encourage you that God is good. And God is great. And eternity will help us to understand how that is always true. Because sometimes in this life circumstances seem to tell us differently. Hang on to God. Don't let go. He will be with you. I know He will.
We are praying for you and your family.
Tana,
I'm so sorry to hear the news. I can't even begin to understand all that your family is going through. I will definitely be praying for you and your family during these extremely difficult days. I pray especially that you and the kids will feel God's loving arms wrapped around you and feel His strength and peace.
Our prayers are with you and your family. As many who know you we also have been through this and our thoughts are with you and we know the Lord is with you, rest on Him.
Hello Tana,
I know you don't know me, I am a friend of Berkley Thompsons. I live in Middleburg, Florida. I wanted to let you know that you and your precious family are in our prayers. Please keep your faith and eyes on God. He WILL pull you through this. God bless.
Cheryl
Tana, I cannot even begin to tell you how sorry I am or how much I love and admire Warren. Please know that I am furvently praying for you both and your family.
Tana, we are praying for you during this time. We lift up special prayers for your dear children. We can not even begin to understand what you are going through. May God`s love and peace comfort you.
Our hearts and prayers are with you . How our heart hurts for you all. Please know that you all have been such an amazing testimony to Kris and I...your desire to honor the Lord through this very difficult trial has been very evident. We continue to uphold you all in prayer during this extremely difficult time.
Tana, pastor Jeff Estes just informed me of Warren's condition and I told him I'd pray...this message from Jeff took me back to 2 1/2 years ago when God saw fit to take our son-in-law home as a result of colon cancer...reading your comments of today were oh so familiar...we moved to GA from CA as a result and know that God is in control of ALL things..Look at Psalm 37:1,3,4,5,7...Fret not (1)
Trust the Lord (3) Delight in the Lord (4) Commit your ways to the Lord (5) and finally REST in the Lord (7)....May you feel the balm of Gilead administerd through your many brother and sisters around the world...praying for you! Barbara Allen
My flesh and my heart faileth: [but] God [is] the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Dear Brokering Family,
My heart aches as I read your update today. I have no idea what to say other than our family is praying for your family. Praying that God gives you the strength to make it through this time. Also that He gives you a peace that passeth all understanding.
With Love From Michigan

Be comforted in knowing that God is holding Warren's hand. I am praying for you all.
Julie Gaschke Novotny
My sister asked some of her friends to pray this morning for Pastor Warren, and friends told friends, and so it got around her whole college campus that they needed to pray for Pastor Warren. It was announced over the PA system about 11:30 this morning. The whole student body and faculty of Tennessee Temple University are now praying for The Brokerings!
Warren & Tana, My husband & I will be praying for you. I am so sorry for you and this difficult time. I remember you both from MBBC and the multiple times I served you meals, I recall Tana your sweetness and Warren your great humor. God Bless you and your children through this struggle.

Tammy (Toftum) Orick
Jeff Estes here. I just wanted to say I love you brother. I don't even know if you will get this before you leave us, but I at least wanted to try to let you know. Tana, as I spoke to you today, I was filled with admiration at your strength and peace for the glory of God to be accomplished in your lives. My heart is flooding with all kinds of emotions thinking of the many memories. I am praying, crying, . . . I love you all. May God keep you close, and may His peace overshadow you.
Tana,
My heart breaks for you. I cannot understand your pain, but I do trust that our God will supply all of your needs. May you feel his arms around you.
What a blessing it has been to read your blog. What an incredible testimony.
Dan and Deb Jordan
Praying for God's perfect peace to fill your heart in these final hours! Your strength is a testimony of God's unfailing grace and love. We love you both!
Scott and Michelle
We will be praying for God's grace and comfort during this time. He will be faithful.
Tana, Thank you for sharing your family on your blog. What a beautiful family you have! Mack and I were not aware of Warren's illness until today. We are very sad and sharing in your grief at this time. We will be praying for you and your 3 precious little ones now and through the days to come. We smile to think how much more fun Heaven will be with Warren in it! We will always remember his smile, his jokes, his funny noises, and love for life!
Mack and Peggy Spitellie
Warren and Tana, I too have just learned of your trials. You will most definitely be in my and my husbands prayers. Although we haven't seen each other for 15 years...if not more...you both are so ingrained in my heart that it seems like yesterday! I love you, Lezah (Latimer) Cruz
Tana,
My heart breaks for you as you walk through this valley with your precious husband. But you do not walk through it alone. Our great, loving God is with you. He is leading and comforting you.
Steve and I just prayed for you and your family. We praised HIM that He is a God who saves! In Him there is hope and life.
I love you, Tana. We will continue to lift up you and your sweet children before our loving Father!
Kristi (Martens) Perdue
I am praying for you and your family. God bless your courage.
Nico Sobrito
Our hearts are so heavy for you and your family. We are fervently praying for you all.
Tana--I wish I could give you a great big hug and cry and pray with you and hold Warren's hand and tell him how jealous my son is that he will get to meet Jonathan before he does--we read about Jonathan's victory over the Philistines in Bible class today. . . I had just read your blog and he wanted to know why I was crying. He doesn't understand my tears. . .he is looking forward to Heaven because there will be no sin! O for the faith of a five year old! You and Warren have been such shining lights of God's grace and love in the midst of a great trial! Prayers and hugs, Sheri Crowder
Warren,Tana, Maddie, Chloe, and Spencer --
We love you and are praying for you tonight. Yes, God IS good. We worship and weep with you tonight.
Garry & Joy Geer, Bethany, Miranda, Garrison, Delaney
wow!! Pastor Warren....the impact you have left and are leaving now is incredible! What a man of God you are! You have touched lives and continue to touch lives...myself included! I love you and love seeing how God continues to work through you....Tana, thank you for your example of strength through hard times...How I admire you! I love all of you dearly!! Praying for you through many tears!!
~Darcy
Pastor Warren, Tana, and children. At this moment, words are not with me. We have been continuing in prayer for you all. I am praying now for God's comforting hands to be around you all tonight, to help the children to sleep, and to uplift you both Tana with HIS presence. We love you all so much.
Cynthia, Mark and Amelia
Tana and family -
We are praying for you and yours at this time. Thanks very much for the updates. We love you all. Just keep on trusting the Lord.

Brokering Family,
It has been years since I have seen either of you (knew you from MBBC). So sorry to hear of this news yesterday. Praying for you and your children that you find comfort and peace. My heart goes out to you.
Malia (Weiss) Horine
John 11:35 says "Jesus wept". The reason that Jesus was crying was because of the death of his close friend Lazerus. Death is so emotionally painful because God created us to live! I can say without a doubt that Warren loved life and caused everyone around him to enjoy life even more. When he would get together with David Martens, life was good in the dorm! They were the funniest guys I ever met. Warren you still bring a smile to my face even while I have tears in my eyes.
Paul LaDuke
Tana,
I just received word this morning about Warren's battle with cancer. I know God's grace is sufficient for you - and I know that you have heard that a hundred times or more and will continue to hear it. Just remember that God does not give you a burden to bear that He is not right there beside you goind through it with you. I am praying for you and your family and trust you will feel God's peace and comfort like you have never felt it before. Love and blessings to you.
Dear Brokering Family,
You may not remember us, but we are praying for your family in this difficult time. Meditate on 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 "So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day. For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal."
Every blessing,
Eric and Kim (Swank) Neevel
Tana, our hearts are overwhelmed for you, Warren, and your children. We are in continual prayer for you, and we are praying that God's presence will be very near to you now and in the next months.
Just wanted to let you know that you and your family are in my thought and prayers. May God's grace keep you at this time.
Danika Ling Brolin
Oh Tana. My heart is so heavy for you. My CD is playing "Does Jesus Care?" Oh, yes, He Cares!!! His heart is touched with your grief! We have not stopped praying for Warren since that day in 2006 when we received the call that he had been diagnosed with cancer. We are praying for you, Warren, Maddie, Chloe, Spencer, your precious mom and dad. We are praying for Jim and Dana and Tyler and Will and Alex and Jana and Ella! Tyler's prayer group at Bob Jones U. is praying for your family! May you have the "peace the passeth all understanding" during these final hours. We love you Tana! We love you Warren! Your lives have been a trophy of God's grace; I will NEVER forget the night Warren preached here at WBC. WOW. We keep you in the forefront of our thoughts and prayers and will continue to do so for as long as you need us to. Much love and hugs! Gary and Kathi King
Dear Lord, Please surround our dear sweet friend and brother Warredn with a sense of divine peace and love as he passes to eternal life. Give Tana and the kids the peace that passes all understanding. I pray this in the name of Jesus, Amen. (Carol Senn Ruffin)
"Well done, good and faithful servant!"
Tana, I am so saddened to hear about Warren. I continue to pray that God will be near and give you the strength and comfort you need for this last leg of Warren's journey. Ruth Sobcinski
Tana and Pastor Warren: I wanted to let you know Mr and Mrs Zachary are sending their love and prayers for you all at this time. I saw them this morning and they asked about you. We are continuing in prayer for you both, Maddie, Chloe, Spencer and the rest of your family. Love and prayers
Cynthia
Tana, our prayers are with you today. Keep fixing your eyes on Him and He will give you the grace that is sufficient during this time. That is God's wonderful promise to us. Cling to Him and He will shelter you with His love that is neverending. We love you.
Pastor John, Sharon and the kids.
Dear Lord, We continue to hold up our friends Warren and Tana in prayer. We pray that you will surround them is sweet peace and comfort Warren and Tana as they prepare for Warren's heavenly journey. We love you both.
The Biddle Family
AMEN and Well Done thou good and faithful servant!
Tana,
We have been receiving updates from my sister, Alisha and my brother Tommy. We have been praying for you and your family for the past two years, but more fervently these past few days. Warren has been very special to my family, especially my brothers. We are so deeply sorry for you and your family. We have some understanding as we have gone thru the recent and sudden loss of Todd's dad this past March. God is good, even when we can't understand. He gives unbelievable grace and comfort!
My love and prayers!
Todd and Christy (Allen)Terrill
We sorrow but not without hope. Just going with you your family today in prayer and thanks to God for the help and strength HE is! We love you!
Dear Tana, I just found this Blog and my heart is breaking for yopu and the Children as you go through this difficult time. I have been Praying for you and your family and I know that God will take of you and the Children at this time. Tell Warren that I love as one of my own children, and I can not forget the time that He stayed with me. May God's Love be with. Carl Towberman
Dear Warren and Tana, Our prayers are with you and your family. God's grace will lead you home, big brother. Love to you both, James and Jen (Millette) Coulter
Tana, I heard the sad news from Berk. My heart and prayers are with you and the kids. During my time at Maranatha Warren was always so much fun. He added a lot of joy to the lives of so many people including all of us in the kitchen. Soon Warren will reach his hand out to the hand we can not see. I look forward to the day we all can be together and enjoy life that does not end. Love and prayers, Jim Erickson
tana,
I'm not sure that you remember me but we were at MBBC together. Warren was a such dear friend. I read your blog all time to keep up with how Warren is doing. Our prayers and thoughts go out to you and your adorable children. May the peace that passes all understanding keep your heart this day.
We love you Warren!
Love, Big Al and Jana
Warren and Tana,
We are praying Romans 8:18 for you. "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us."
Tana, as your mountains are crashing into the sea, your God is faithful. Our hearts break for you and our prayers continue today and on the long road ahead.
Warren, thanks for the laughs and for sharing and glorifying God in your struggle.
Buff and Tina(Hawk)Powers
Continuing to pray...
Warren,
Your testimony and faithfulness has continued to bless and amaze many because at the same time you battled cancer yourself, you were reaching out to other individuals fighting the same battle and their families. You have always been focused on others and their salvation. What an amazing example you have been through your walk with the Lord!
I have to echo the statement of many, “Well done, good and faithful servant!’
We know the Lord is reaching out, telling you it's time to come home, thus you will be Cancer free and will no longer suffer, which I believe helps all of us ease the pain. Even with our faith the circumstances are still very tough because it is hard to say goodbye to such a blessed man, with such a kindred spirit for everyone. The road ahead for Tana and the kids, is still going to be a tough one, but with all of the family surrounding them and God's precious love I'm hopeful they will find peace and comfort.
I will always cherish the moments and conversations that we had together at family cookouts and church functions. We use to discuss many things including counseling others and you use to tell me that I was a comforter but in reality you were the comforter for so many. It is simple to see with the out pour of love shared by many. I will continue to admire you for your faithful walk, until we meet again my brother in Christ our Lord.
During these times we too, must reflect on our own lives and make sure things are in order. Warren is very young to be leaving this old world but the Lord has called upon him and said it is time my son for you to come home. We never know when it may be our turn so I hope that everyone reflects on their lives and makes the most important decision of their lives by accepting Christ as their personal savior.
The Lord's work continues to amaze me even through the trials and tribulations that we face. Our thoughts and prayers continue for Tana and the kids.
God Bless,
Matthew
Tana, Warren was a special friend to me during college in 1986. He left a forever impression on my heart. I could see Christ in him at college and I will always remember that. I cannot imagine what you are going through. I hold on to the promise that right now the Lord is giving you special grace. I have and will continue to pray for you and your little ones. Our God doesn't make mistakes. We may never know "why" but we know He is in control. God Bless You and know you will be in my prayers.
My family is keeping you in our prayers. To reiterate what many others have already shared, I got many laughs from Warren's great sense of humor while at MBBC. Tana, our family will be praying that God blesses you and your beautiful children with the peace and comfort that only He can provide in these difficult moments. I have been following your blog for about a year now, and it has been a tremendous blessing.
Keith Wickenhauser and family,
La Porte, IN
Dear Brokerings,
We just went through a difficult time in losing our nephew a few weeks ago. One thing said by my departed nephew's older brother was "my brother gets first "dibs" on heaven. Way to go Warren! God bless you brother for having made such an impact in all of our lives at MBBC. I still remember some of your funnier comments - especially the one when we were donating blood in the school gym. You will be missed but soon we will all be up there with you praising His glory! God bless you Tana - my wife Yancy and I are praying for you and the children. We cannot imagine all that you are going through - but God is good and I know He will give you the strength to carry on.
The Morazan's
Tana, Warren was one of our ushers and is also one of Jim's good friends from college. We have been praying for Warren, you, and your children since Warren started this battle with cancer. Please know that you will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. May the Lord comfort you as only He can do right now. I wish I could say more to help ease your sorrow at this time. Rachel Gruenwald
Tana, I just recently heard about the struggles you all are going through and my heart is heavy for you; but God is always good. Please know that I'm praying for you, Warren, and the kids during this difficult time.
"Trust in Him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us." Psalm 62:8
Praying continually,
Beth Balderson
Tana,
Give Warren our love. We as a family have been praying for your family for the last 2-3 years. Each morning at breakfast we rotate through prayer cards of missionaries and ministry friends who we desire to keep before the Lord in prayer. The Brokering family is frequently mentioned. We are sorry for the present struggle and pray for God's sustaining grace for each of you.
Warren had a gift! So often at college he made me smile and laugh when I needed something to keep me sane with all the pressure. What a dear friend and brother in ministry. We will commit to uphold each of you in prayer through this difficult time.
All our love and support
BJ and Lisa (Carter) Stille

Tana,
I have been sitting at my computer weeping as I have read the precious words of encouragement from so many dear friends. You and Warren have been such an inspiration to me. What wonderful memories we have of so many fun times at MBBC.
You and Warren have both had such love for life, each other and the Lord. Thank you for your shining example through the darkest waters of your life. May God wrap you and your precious children in His arms of love and comfort as you walk through these days. I love you and am praying for you.
Kristy (Carlson) Walker
Tana, I am praying for you and your family. We lost my grandfather to lung cancer last summer, so I can empathize to an extent; he also went quite quickly. Praying God will give you extra grace and strength through this time, and surround you with His love.
