We are always so appreciative 00:02:04.94\00:02:07.71 of your conservative dress and... 00:02:07.92\00:02:11.51 I just let my light shine. 00:02:13.05\00:02:15.08 Let your light shine... all right. 00:02:15.25\00:02:17.60 Right now they're going to sing one of my favorite songs... 00:02:17.91\00:02:21.27 Pam is: He Washed My Eyes With Tears. 00:02:21.47\00:02:25.71 He washed my eyes with tears 00:02:51.34\00:02:56.91 that I might see 00:02:57.21\00:03:02.56 the broken heart I had 00:03:03.06\00:03:08.70 was good for me. 00:03:09.00\00:03:14.69 He tore it all apart 00:03:14.99\00:03:20.61 and looked inside. 00:03:21.01\00:03:26.46 He found it full of fear 00:03:26.87\00:03:32.37 and foolish pride. 00:03:32.67\00:03:38.27 He swept away the fears 00:03:38.67\00:03:44.34 that made me blind. 00:03:44.64\00:03:50.27 And then I saw the clouds 00:03:50.57\00:03:56.18 were silver lined. 00:03:56.49\00:04:02.21 And now I understand 00:04:02.42\00:04:08.02 'twas best for me. 00:04:08.42\00:04:13.84 He washed my eyes with tears 00:04:14.24\00:04:19.88 that I might see. 00:04:20.18\00:04:25.64 He washed my eyes with tears 00:04:26.04\00:04:31.78 that I might see 00:04:32.08\00:04:37.46 the glory of Himself 00:04:37.86\00:04:43.56 revealed to me. 00:04:43.96\00:04:49.48 I did not know that He 00:04:49.98\00:04:55.47 had wounded hands. 00:04:55.87\00:05:00.89 I saw the blood He spilt 00:05:01.39\00:05:07.16 upon the sand. 00:05:07.46\00:05:12.93 I saw the marks of shame 00:05:13.33\00:05:19.10 and wept and cried. 00:05:19.51\00:05:25.10 He was my substitute... 00:05:25.50\00:05:30.86 for me He died. 00:05:31.27\00:05:36.80 And now I'm glad He came 00:05:37.20\00:05:42.77 so tenderly 00:05:43.17\00:05:48.60 and washed my eyes with tears 00:05:49.00\00:05:54.84 that I might 00:05:55.14\00:05:58.29 see. 00:05:58.59\00:06:04.59 You know... thank you. 00:06:11.72\00:06:13.61 The Lord has blessed me in so many incredible ways 00:06:13.91\00:06:17.47 but the biggest blessing that He's given me 00:06:17.77\00:06:21.02 is my dear husband. There's nothing the man can't play. 00:06:21.32\00:06:25.47 You can give him an old cooking pot and a stick 00:06:25.77\00:06:29.36 and he will make a tune come out of the thing. 00:06:29.56\00:06:32.05 So I'm going to turn the time over... 00:06:32.25\00:06:33.85 It's Sheltered in the Arms of God? 00:06:34.05\00:06:37.47 It is? OK. Hope you enjoy. 00:06:37.67\00:06:39.57 Amen. 00:09:11.47\00:09:13.13 I grew up in a home that we were below the poverty level. 00:09:19.25\00:09:22.05 My father was disabled. 00:09:22.25\00:09:23.62 We had... there were 5 kids in the family... seven of us 00:09:23.82\00:09:26.09 and not much of an income. I guess I'm no different 00:09:26.29\00:09:29.40 than a lot of folks whether they're inner city 00:09:29.61\00:09:31.47 and you grow up with a certain economic you might say 00:09:31.67\00:09:35.32 disadvantage. The difference to me is 00:09:35.42\00:09:37.78 was my folks were Christians and they introduced me to Jesus. 00:09:37.98\00:09:41.74 And by doing that it allowed me to dare to dream 00:09:42.04\00:09:45.50 to do more than what I can do. Maybe I could, 00:09:45.70\00:09:48.93 with God's help, build a television network 00:09:49.13\00:09:51.04 that would reach the world with an undiluted 00:09:51.24\00:09:53.27 three angels' messages: one that would counteract 00:09:53.47\00:09:55.56 the counterfeit. 00:09:55.86\00:09:57.41 3ABN by counteracting the counterfeit 00:09:57.71\00:09:59.59 is to say, you know what? Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. 00:09:59.79\00:10:03.95 That's what we want to present. 00:10:04.25\00:10:05.88 But there are many ways of doing it 00:10:06.08\00:10:07.67 and many flavors. The gospel can take on many flavors. 00:10:07.87\00:10:11.08 But the inner city... there are specific needs 00:10:11.38\00:10:13.76 and we have dared to dream that it will work. 00:10:14.06\00:10:16.69 Right after graduate school I started working 00:10:27.91\00:10:30.83 in the field as a social worker, 00:10:31.03\00:10:32.58 and I was working in the inner city. 00:10:32.68\00:10:34.64 And I had a chance to see what was going on there. 00:10:34.84\00:10:37.96 And that was in the 70's, and I'm looking at 00:10:38.26\00:10:41.46 where we are now. And we're actually worse than we were 00:10:41.66\00:10:45.36 in the 70's. Sixty percent of the young men 00:10:45.46\00:10:48.20 who are over 18 by the time they are 30 00:10:48.40\00:10:52.04 will be in prison. 00:10:52.25\00:10:53.56 One out of three African- American males is either 00:10:53.66\00:10:56.37 in prison or supervised by the court system. 00:10:56.47\00:10:59.91 We have over 70% of the births in the community are 00:11:00.21\00:11:04.37 out of wedlock. The child that was born in slavery time 00:11:04.58\00:11:08.84 had more of a chance to be raised by a two-parent household 00:11:09.04\00:11:13.70 than a child born today in the African-American community. 00:11:13.90\00:11:17.31 That is so frightening. That is so disturbing. 00:11:17.61\00:11:20.65 How did we get here and how do we get out of here? 00:11:20.95\00:11:24.82 The people in the inner cities are languishing 00:11:25.12\00:11:27.59 and suffering, and we have a message for them. 00:11:27.79\00:11:31.18 We have hope for them... and it's Jesus! 00:11:31.38\00:11:34.11 There are many people who will never watch 00:11:34.31\00:11:37.06 and have the privilege of watching 3ABN 00:11:37.10\00:11:39.82 that most of us see around the world. 00:11:40.02\00:11:42.71 Dare to Dream is going to add to the complete mission. 00:11:43.01\00:11:45.68 Jesus said: "Go ye into all the world. " 00:11:45.88\00:11:47.29 Incredible tools that can work with God's blessing. 00:11:47.49\00:11:50.38 Hello. My name is Dr. Yvonne Lewis 00:12:01.32\00:12:04.20 and I am the new General Manager of 3ABN's new urban network 00:12:04.40\00:12:08.72 Dare to Dream. 00:12:08.92\00:12:10.35 God has been doing some great and amazing things 00:12:10.65\00:12:14.43 at Dare to Dream, and today we're going to give you 00:12:14.64\00:12:17.49 a sneak peek into some of the programming that we are 00:12:17.69\00:12:21.36 offering. The first segment that you are going to see 00:12:21.46\00:12:24.38 is a Did You Know? spot. 00:12:24.58\00:12:26.32 The Lord laid it on my heart to share some of the 00:12:26.53\00:12:29.51 contributions above and beyond sports and music 00:12:29.61\00:12:33.44 and entertainment that have been made by African-Americans 00:12:33.54\00:12:36.68 to our society. It's important for children 00:12:36.78\00:12:39.42 to know that they can dare to dream 00:12:39.62\00:12:41.58 and know that they, too, can do something important to make 00:12:41.78\00:12:44.62 our world a better place. 00:12:44.82\00:12:46.33 So take a look... Did You Know? 00:12:46.64\00:12:49.42 When you plug your printer into your PC 00:13:02.40\00:13:04.91 think of Mark Dean. He was born on March 2, 1957, 00:13:05.11\00:13:09.39 in Jefferson City, Tennessee. 00:13:09.59\00:13:11.08 Growing up he was a straight-A student and an outstanding 00:13:11.38\00:13:14.43 athlete. In college he graduated at the top of his class 00:13:14.53\00:13:18.26 and went on to earn a Ph. D. in electrical engineering 00:13:18.46\00:13:21.44 from Stanford University. 00:13:21.64\00:13:23.04 In 1997 Dr. Dean received the Black Engineer of the Year 00:13:23.34\00:13:27.67 President's Award, was inducted into the National Inventor's 00:13:27.87\00:13:30.97 Hall of Fame, and was named an IBM Fellow, the highest 00:13:31.07\00:13:34.22 technical honor awarded by the company. 00:13:34.42\00:13:36.43 He devised the color graphics adapter which allows 00:13:36.73\00:13:39.38 color to be displayed on the PC. 00:13:39.58\00:13:41.38 He holds more than 20 patents. 00:13:41.68\00:13:43.82 Did you know that Mark Dean and Dennis Moeller developed 00:13:43.92\00:13:46.63 a component that allowed multiple peripheral devices 00:13:46.83\00:13:49.83 such as printers and modems to be connected to a PC? 00:13:50.03\00:13:52.60 Did you know that Dr. Mark Dean dared to dream 00:13:52.90\00:13:55.52 and owns 3 of the 9 patents that all PCs are based upon? 00:13:55.62\00:13:59.36 Well now you know! 00:13:59.66\00:14:01.04 Our inner cities are laden with crime and poverty 00:14:03.00\00:14:06.43 and chronic disease, just to name a few of the challenges. 00:14:06.63\00:14:10.02 We have a program for ex-offenders hosted by an 00:14:10.33\00:14:13.74 ex-offender... a young man, Aaron Chancy, 00:14:13.84\00:14:17.00 and he's on fire for God. 00:14:17.30\00:14:19.27 Watch as he hosts The New Journey. 00:14:19.57\00:14:21.85 We'd like to welcome the viewers back to this New Journey 00:14:50.70\00:14:53.28 program. Today our guest is Pastor Donell Morgan. 00:14:53.49\00:14:57.11 Welcome, Pastor Morgan. Thank you. 00:14:57.41\00:14:59.08 Now we want to focus on your amazing testimony 00:14:59.18\00:15:01.90 of God's amazing, saving grace. 00:15:02.00\00:15:04.19 We want to focus on four areas of your life: 00:15:04.39\00:15:06.63 your early childhood, 00:15:06.73\00:15:08.02 how you got involved in crime, 00:15:08.22\00:15:09.85 changing your life and your battle with even learning how 00:15:10.05\00:15:12.50 to read, and we want to talk about your work as an 00:15:12.60\00:15:14.93 ordained minister for God. 00:15:15.03\00:15:16.66 But before we get into those four aspects of your life 00:15:16.97\00:15:19.46 you have a book that's written. I want you to talk a little bit 00:15:19.66\00:15:22.21 about what prompted you, what motivated you to 00:15:22.31\00:15:24.15 want to write this book. 00:15:24.25\00:15:25.75 Because chronic disease is such a major concern 00:15:26.45\00:15:30.40 in the inner cities, Dare to Dream has several 00:15:30.60\00:15:33.49 health programs that we are offering. 00:15:33.69\00:15:35.85 The one that you are about to see is constructed 00:15:36.15\00:15:38.67 in an interesting manner. 00:15:38.77\00:15:40.19 It's divided into raw food preparation 00:15:40.59\00:15:43.43 and cooked food with health tips. 00:15:43.63\00:15:46.54 The first half of the program is hosted by Evita Tezeno 00:15:46.84\00:15:50.39 and Brenda Kemp and the second half 00:15:50.59\00:15:52.67 is with Nyse Collins. 00:15:52.87\00:15:54.82 Mmmm, yummy food. You're going to see Nyse Collins first. 00:15:55.02\00:15:57.74 Take a look. 00:15:57.94\00:15:59.17 Would you like to see that again? 'Cause I would love 00:16:09.51\00:16:10.87 to show you. All right. I heard somebody say "yes. " 00:16:10.97\00:16:13.16 So you go ahead and you... 00:16:13.36\00:16:15.82 Oh, my, this is dangerously good for me! 00:16:17.26\00:16:19.55 Let's get started cooking or, shall I say, uncooking? 00:16:19.85\00:16:22.29 Yes, Nori sushi rolls and mock tuna. 00:16:22.59\00:16:26.34 What is the best finish? Apple pie! Yes! 00:16:26.64\00:16:29.58 And guess what? You don't have to give up apple pie 00:16:29.89\00:16:32.26 when you become raw. 00:16:32.46\00:16:33.59 A raw apple pie. 00:16:33.89\00:16:35.54 Cholesterol is normally manufactured in the liver. 00:16:35.64\00:16:37.80 OK, so if something has a liver, 00:16:38.00\00:16:39.46 comes from something that has a liver, 00:16:39.66\00:16:40.86 maybe it's related to something that has a liver, 00:16:40.96\00:16:42.74 if it even has a face 00:16:42.94\00:16:44.91 or a mama or it's a mushroom or something of that nature 00:16:45.11\00:16:47.92 then it will always have cholesterol. 00:16:48.12\00:16:49.49 So let me ask you a quick question: 00:16:49.59\00:16:50.70 does this have a liver? Not quite. Does it have a face? 00:16:50.80\00:16:53.71 Well I guess you can draw it in or something like that 00:16:53.91\00:16:55.77 but does it? It doesn't have any of those. 00:16:55.87\00:16:57.90 So this in general, and you can look at the science, 00:16:58.00\00:17:00.42 it has how much cholesterol? Absolutely no cholesterol. 00:17:00.62\00:17:03.66 But what it does have... it has a lot of fat. 00:17:03.86\00:17:06.70 Actually, good fat. 00:17:07.00\00:17:08.48 It's good, isn't it, so far? Praise the Lord. 00:17:10.32\00:17:13.06 Poverty and unemployment are high in the inner cities 00:17:15.03\00:17:18.51 and money management skills are critical. 00:17:18.81\00:17:21.88 So we have a money management program - Take It To The Bank - 00:17:22.08\00:17:25.32 hosted by Cordell Thomas.

" 00:27:15.16\00:27:16.59 She said: "That will work out perfect. " 00:27:16.90\00:27:18.76 And she began... she came to the meetings every night. 00:27:20.01\00:27:22.26 And praise the Lord, she was baptized along with her husband 00:27:22.46\00:27:26.55 Gabriel.

It's not this month... 00:28:23.28\00:28:25.27 we're going to have to wait a little bit. 00:28:25.47\00:28:26.61 But by the grace of the Lord 3ABN Latino Radio 00:28:26.91\00:28:28.85 will also brings many souls for Jesus Christ. 00:28:29.05\00:28:31.62 May God bless you; thank you. 00:28:31.82\00:28:32.89 Amen; thank you, John. 00:28:33.19\00:28:34.36 You know, it's really interesting how God works 00:28:34.56\00:28:37.37 in unusual ways. 00:28:37.57\00:28:39.34 Since most of us at 3ABN Radio have been here 00:28:39.64\00:28:44.68 we've been very interested and we've seen the opportunity 00:28:44.78\00:28:48.45 in Latino radio. And yet, for one reason or another, 00:28:48.65\00:28:52.96 the money wasn't available or any of that. 00:28:53.16\00:28:55.47 And just a short while ago we had a meeting - 00:28:55.68\00:28:59.70 a manager's meeting at 3ABN Radio - 00:28:59.90\00:29:02.55 and we brought it up again... you know, we really would 00:29:02.86\00:29:06.00 like to have Latino radio. 00:29:06.20\00:29:07.79 And so we put our heads together and we said: 00:29:07.99\00:29:10.26 "You know, this may not happen for a long time yet 00:29:10.46\00:29:12.78 but why don't we at least offer them the use of one of our 00:29:12.98\00:29:17.92 production studios that's free, that isn't used as much. 00:29:18.02\00:29:21.76 And so we said: "OK, let's do that. " 00:29:21.96\00:29:24.05 And so we offered it to them, and almost no sooner did 00:29:24.15\00:29:28.31 we offer it to them than somebody contacted 3ABN 00:29:28.41\00:29:31.71 and said: "I am willing to donate the money to get 00:29:31.81\00:29:34.57 Latino Radio Network going. " 00:29:34.77\00:29:37.19 Now is that God or what? 00:29:37.39\00:29:39.30 So praise God. 00:29:39.60\00:29:41.33 You know, if you've been watching or listening to my 00:29:41.53\00:29:45.31 reports over the last number of years 00:29:45.41\00:29:46.85 you've probably heard me mention cell phone technology. 00:29:47.05\00:29:49.68 As a matter of fact, 00:29:50.77\00:29:52.32 I've got 3ABN Radio on my cell phone. 00:29:54.36\00:29:57.66 And it's very interesting to be driving down the street 00:29:57.96\00:30:01.47 and listening to 3ABN Radio through my car speakers, 00:30:01.67\00:30:04.86 and you can do the same thing. Now the main thing to remember 00:30:05.06\00:30:08.89 is that you have to have a Smart Phone, 00:30:09.09\00:30:10.98 you have to have a data connection, and all of that. 00:30:11.08\00:30:13.83 If you don't know how to do that, contact us at 3ABN Radio 00:30:14.13\00:30:17.57 and we'll be glad to talk you through it. 00:30:17.77\00:30:19.20 But it's just amazing how this signal goes around the world 00:30:19.50\00:30:23.05 and how God works out things. 00:30:23.35\00:30:25.74 We have just begun a new tuner system 00:30:26.04\00:30:30.89 on the Internet where when you go to this 00:30:31.09\00:30:33.86 particular website you can find us, you can mark us 00:30:34.06\00:30:37.64 as a favorite, and you can also download a widget 00:30:37.84\00:30:41.28 to go with us, and we're just very easy to find. 00:30:41.38\00:30:43.60 And so once you have that on your cell phone 00:30:43.80\00:30:46.85 then basically it's just you turn your cell phone on 00:30:47.05\00:30:49.60 hit a couple of things and we're playing. 00:30:49.80\00:30:51.78 And there have been times I've carried my cell phone 00:30:51.98\00:30:54.17 around with me like this. How many of you remember 00:30:54.27\00:30:56.85 the old transistor radios? OK. 00:30:56.95\00:30:59.52 Yeah, I would carry my cell phone like this. I thought 00:30:59.72\00:31:02.51 "You know, this brings back memories 00:31:02.71\00:31:04.31 when I used to have a transistor radio listening to the radio. " 00:31:04.41\00:31:08.37 But it can be done and we encourage it. 00:31:08.57\00:31:11.10 Now the new website that we've found is 00:31:11.20\00:31:14.89 www. tunein. com and it's all one word. 00:31:15.09\00:31:19.03 All you have to do is go to www. tunein. com 00:31:19.23\00:31:21.42 You can search. Look for 3ABN Radio Network. 00:31:21.62\00:31:25.63 And then you'll load that up. 00:31:25.83\00:31:29.36 And then you can save that as a preset. 00:31:29.56\00:31:32.51 You can also like I said download a widget 00:31:32.71\00:31:34.63 if you understand. How many know what a widget is? 00:31:34.83\00:31:36.65 A few of us here know what that is. 00:31:39.13\00:31:41.37 And so you can do that. In any case, we encourage you 00:31:41.67\00:31:44.50 to do that. We'd love to have you listen. 00:31:44.61\00:31:46.28 You know, we are so blessed at 3ABN Radio. 00:31:46.48\00:31:49.37 Mike Babb, Nikki Anderson, Angela Lomacang, 00:31:49.57\00:31:52.32 Pam Turner and myself: we are so blessed to be there. 00:31:52.53\00:31:56.96 God has blessed each one of us. I've been there for 12 years now 00:31:57.16\00:32:02.28 and how time flies. You know, in a way I can't remember 00:32:02.52\00:32:05.94 being anywhere else and yet at times it feels like 00:32:06.14\00:32:09.53 I just got there... so many exciting and wonderful things 00:32:09.73\00:32:12.16 happening. And I see Beverly down here. 00:32:12.26\00:32:16.60 Beverly in the front audience was I think actually the first 00:32:16.80\00:32:20.91 radio employee, so she started doing things before 00:32:21.21\00:32:25.33 I was even hired. I think I was the 3rd official radio employee 00:32:25.53\00:32:28.50 to come along. And it's... just, we are so blessed 00:32:28.70\00:32:32.83 when we see the way that God is doing things. 00:32:32.93\00:32:35.71 We have some new affiliates that I'd like to mention. 00:32:35.91\00:32:39.36 We're getting pretty close to 200. 00:32:39.56\00:32:42.48 I don't know the exact number but we keep inching up and up 00:32:42.68\00:32:45.74 and up and we're getting real close. 00:32:45.84\00:32:47.06 But the latest affiliates we have: 00:32:47.26\00:32:49.94 full power FM in Drakes Branch, Virginia at 88.7 FM 00:32:50.14\00:32:55.59 On the Internet in Chelsea, Alabama: Elijah Radio. 00:32:55.69\00:32:59.09 We have low power FMs in Minot, ND, at 104.1 FM 00:32:59.13\00:33:04.74 and in Port St. Lucie, Florida, at 100.1 FM. 00:33:04.88\00:33:09.94 There's a microtransmitter in Lincoln, Nebraska, 00:33:10.14\00:33:12.64 at 1550 AM... and so we'd like to welcome them. 00:33:12.85\00:33:17.00 Now I have a list here of New Zealand and Australia 00:33:17.20\00:33:21.37 stations. If you ever heard any of the New Zealand and Australia 00:33:21.57\00:33:26.40 town names... I'm going to butcher every one of them 00:33:26.60\00:33:30.12 but I want to say thanks. And so for the people in 00:33:30.22\00:33:32.75 New Zealand and Australia I apologize, 00:33:32.95\00:33:35.03 but we thank you very much for going with 3ABN Radio. 00:33:35.33\00:33:38.87 In Whitaker, New Zealand, 87.9 00:33:39.18\00:33:42.98 I'm sure I've already gotten off to a bad start. 00:33:43.18\00:33:45.88 In Taree, New South Wales, Australia, 87.6 00:33:45.91\00:33:50.04 Mudgeeraba... now you know that's gotta be wrong... 00:33:50.34\00:33:54.29 Queensland, Australia, at 88 FM 00:33:54.49\00:33:58.22 Kyogle, New South Wales, Australia, 87.6 00:33:58.33\00:34:02.30 Collinsvale, Tasmania, Australia, 88.7 00:34:02.60\00:34:05.96 In Manawatu, Ashurst, New Zealand, 107.7 00:34:06.37\00:34:12.33 Levlin, New Zealand, 107.7 00:34:12.73\00:34:15.66 Pahiatua, New Zealand, 107.7 00:34:15.96\00:34:20.59 and Palmerston, New Zealand, also at 107.7. 00:34:20.79\00:34:24.55 And so for each one of you in New Zealand and Australia 00:34:24.95\00:34:29.23 I apologize for fracturing your names, but we thank you 00:34:29.43\00:34:34.85 very much for joining with us in reaching out to your local 00:34:35.05\00:34:38.17 area with the signal of Three Angels Broadcasting Network. 00:34:38.27\00:34:41.47 Now you know one of the things that is really good is 00:34:41.77\00:34:46.03 our signal goes around the world. You all knew that. 00:34:46.23\00:34:49.06 And we have found that no matter where in the world 00:34:49.36\00:34:54.90 it almost seems like somebody is listening to us. 00:34:55.10\00:34:57.09 You know? A small fishing village in Alaska. 00:34:57.30\00:35:00.12 A hut in Tasmania. 00:35:00.32\00:35:02.26 A war-torn nation in Africa. 00:35:02.46\00:35:04.30 We're hearing from all of these places, and when they say 00:35:04.40\00:35:06.72 "thank you for all that you've done for us. " 00:35:06.82\00:35:09.36 In March of this year we received an e-mail 00:35:09.56\00:35:11.89 from a non-Adventist pastor in Liberia. 00:35:12.09\00:35:15.28 And he said he's been hearing our broadcasts on the radio 00:35:15.48\00:35:19.48 and he says: "You know? That's truth! 00:35:19.68\00:35:23.08 Can you send somebody down here to teach us 00:35:23.38\00:35:27.38 about what you're saying? Preach to 300 of our pastors 00:35:27.58\00:35:31.70 so we can preach your message? " 00:35:31.80\00:35:33.57 Is that God or what? 00:35:33.87\00:35:35.67 Also, we've got many other things going on in radio 00:35:37.28\00:35:42.75 as well. We've got some new programs. 00:35:42.85\00:35:45.55 In August we've recorded ten new episodes 00:35:45.75\00:35:49.81 of Women at the Well, so we've got that. 00:35:50.01\00:35:52.77 We have an encore presentation of an older series 00:35:52.97\00:35:56.63 with Women at the Well. That has started 00:35:56.73\00:35:58.76 and that's airing on 3ABN Radio. 00:35:58.96\00:36:00.97 We've added a new program. It's called Life Quest Liberty 00:36:01.27\00:36:05.78 and it's a program that I think is probably near and dear 00:36:05.98\00:36:09.07 to many of our hearts because it deals with religious liberty 00:36:09.17\00:36:13.71 issues, not only in America but around the world. 00:36:13.91\00:36:16.93 And it's amazing to sit here and watch. 00:36:17.13\00:36:20.16 So much is happening in the world to restrict 00:36:20.36\00:36:23.76 religious broadcasting. I don't know if you've seen it. 00:36:23.96\00:36:27.81 I don't know if you've recognized it in different 00:36:27.91\00:36:29.59 news stories that you've seen? 00:36:29.69\00:36:31.24 But I'm hearing more and more news where the different places 00:36:31.54\00:36:37.53 in the world there is an animosity toward Christianity. 00:36:37.63\00:36:42.42 And where people of other religions can stand up and speak 00:36:42.72\00:36:45.96 and say whatever they want, and let a Christian stand up 00:36:46.16\00:36:48.80 and they're being shut down. 00:36:48.83\00:36:51.49 And that is happening in America 00:36:51.79\00:36:55.94 if you can believe that. 00:36:56.24\00:36:58.35 I grew up and I'm sure you grew up 00:36:58.55\00:37:00.58 knowing that we had freedom of religion and people were 00:37:00.88\00:37:04.73 allowed to say what they wanted to say about religion. 00:37:04.83\00:37:07.05 And yet one by one each one of the things 00:37:07.25\00:37:11.17 that we bring up and talk about is being attacked 00:37:11.27\00:37:13.84 in the media and we are in many ways paying 00:37:14.04\00:37:18.82 for our belief in God, in Christianity, 00:37:19.02\00:37:23.10 and in all the things that we hold near and dear. 00:37:23.30\00:37:26.08 And I ask for you to pray for us. 00:37:26.28\00:37:27.75 Listen to Life Quest Liberty on 3ABN Radio as well. 00:37:27.95\00:37:31.51 We encourage you to do that. 00:37:31.71\00:37:33.11 Thank you for having me, and now it's time for John Lomacang. 00:37:33.31\00:37:37.59 Great voice. Do you love to listen to him sing? 00:37:37.89\00:37:40.27 Amen. He'll sing Lord, I'm Coming Home. 00:37:40.47\00:37:43.67 Thank you. 00:37:43.97\00:37:45.01 Thank you, Jay. Can we say "Amen" again 00:37:45.95\00:37:47.65 for all the work being done at 3ABN? Amen. 00:37:47.75\00:37:50.61 You know I was sitting in the back and looking at the clock 00:37:50.91\00:37:53.32 and I'm thinking... soon we're going to be going home. 00:37:53.42\00:37:55.38 But I thought to myself... not literally going to our homes 00:37:58.31\00:38:02.43 but soon we'll be going home. Amen. 00:38:02.74\00:38:05.39 And there are so many still 00:38:05.99\00:38:08.99 that have heard the gospel, 00:38:09.19\00:38:11.56 so many that have walked with the Lord for many years 00:38:11.76\00:38:13.87 that have left the church. When I was over in Australia 00:38:14.07\00:38:18.24 a couple of years ago and I was invited to speak at AYC 00:38:18.44\00:38:21.09 I had a special appeal... not for people that were there 00:38:21.39\00:38:25.57 but for people that were not there. 00:38:25.87\00:38:28.54 And I said to the audience of a few thousand young people 00:38:28.84\00:38:33.63 I said: "If there's someone that has left the Lord 00:38:33.73\00:38:37.20 that you can think of right now and you'd like to stand 00:38:37.31\00:38:39.66 and commit yourself to pray for that person to come home 00:38:39.76\00:38:43.24 before Jesus comes, I want you to do that. " 00:38:43.44\00:38:47.48 And that day I think all through the audience 00:38:47.78\00:38:51.02 everyone thought of the name of someone who had walked 00:38:51.22\00:38:55.27 with the Lord but had walked away from the Lord 00:38:55.37\00:38:58.07 and needed to come back home. 00:38:58.27\00:38:59.93 So once again I want to dedicate this song to those 00:39:00.23\00:39:02.79 who may be watching, those who may be listening, 00:39:02.99\00:39:04.81 and you may have walked with the Lord. I'm not speaking about 00:39:04.91\00:39:07.48 what denomination. But you may have walked with the Lord 00:39:07.58\00:39:11.88 and you walked away. You may be living in a life of sin 00:39:11.98\00:39:15.28 and you're tired of it. 00:39:15.48\00:39:16.66 Today, before Jesus comes, He's extending the call 00:39:16.96\00:39:21.48 even to you. And I pray that you'll say: "Lord, 00:39:21.68\00:39:25.10 I'm coming home. " 00:39:25.20\00:39:27.54 I've wandered far 00:39:48.46\00:39:53.30 away from God, 00:39:53.60\00:39:58.72 Now I'm coming 00:39:59.66\00:40:04.42 home; 00:40:04.72\00:40:06.98 The paths of sin 00:40:09.46\00:40:13.59 too long I've trod, 00:40:13.89\00:40:18.82 Lord, I'm coming 00:40:19.32\00:40:24.56 home. 00:40:24.76\00:40:28.18 I've wasted 00:40:28.58\00:40:32.28 many precious years, 00:40:32.58\00:40:38.12 but now I'm coming 00:40:39.55\00:40:43.38 back home; 00:40:43.48\00:40:46.81 I now repent 00:40:47.60\00:40:53.51 with bitter tears, 00:40:53.81\00:40:58.64 Lord, I'm coming 00:40:59.04\00:41:04.45 home. 00:41:04.66\00:41:08.89 Coming home, 00:41:09.60\00:41:13.73 coming home, 00:41:14.23\00:41:18.59 Nevermore 00:41:19.00\00:41:23.14 to roam, 00:41:23.45\00:41:27.49 Please open wide 00:41:27.90\00:41:33.42 Thine arms of love, 00:41:33.72\00:41:38.69 Lord, I'm coming 00:41:38.99\00:41:44.49 home. 00:41:44.79\00:41:49.63 I'm tired of sin 00:41:54.40\00:41:58.35 and straying Lord, 00:41:58.66\00:42:03.39 So now I'm coming 00:42:03.49\00:42:08.28 back home; 00:42:08.58\00:42:12.11 I'll trust Thy love 00:42:12.41\00:42:18.30 and I'll believe Thy Word, 00:42:18.60\00:42:22.89 Oh, my Lord, 00:42:23.29\00:42:25.79 I'm coming 00:42:26.09\00:42:28.84 home... 00:42:29.04\00:42:34.98 I need Your cleansing 00:42:38.17\00:42:43.88 blood I know, 00:42:44.18\00:42:48.38 so now I'm coming 00:42:48.68\00:42:53.34 back home; 00:42:53.55\00:42:57.42 Lord, wash me whiter... 00:42:57.72\00:43:03.04 I want to be whiter than snow, 00:43:03.34\00:43:07.81 Oh, my Lord, 00:43:08.21\00:43:10.98 I'm coming back home. 00:43:11.18\00:43:17.07 Yes, coming back home, 00:43:18.01\00:43:23.22 yes, I'm coming home, 00:43:23.43\00:43:27.49 Lord, never 00:43:27.69\00:43:30.43 never again will I roam. 00:43:30.73\00:43:36.73 Please open wide 00:43:37.23\00:43:43.23 Your arms of love, 00:43:43.53\00:43:48.48 Oh Lord, I'm coming 00:43:48.58\00:43:53.80 home. 00:43:54.30\00:44:00.21 Never again... 00:44:06.89\00:44:10.44 never again will I roam. 00:44:10.74\00:44:16.54 Lord, 00:44:16.84\00:44:18.35 please open wide 00:44:18.55\00:44:23.24 Your arms of love, 00:44:23.44\00:44:28.49 Lord, 00:44:28.69\00:44:30.75 I'm coming 00:44:31.05\00:44:37.02 home. 00:44:41.79\00:44:47.69 Amen. 00:45:01.51\00:45:03.72 I want to introduce someone that you may have met before 00:45:09.94\00:45:13.98 that I almost forgot about. 00:45:14.08\00:45:17.22 But when I saw her face I said: "How could I forget about 00:45:17.42\00:45:20.04 Tammy?

Let's give her a hearty amen. 00:45:42.89\00:45:45.50 I'll tell of 00:46:05.34\00:46:08.95 the Savior 00:46:09.15\00:46:12.13 I'll tell 00:46:12.27\00:46:15.92 of His favor 00:46:16.22\00:46:18.84 I'll tell it, Lord, 00:46:19.14\00:46:23.01 wherever 00:46:23.31\00:46:25.80 I may go. 00:46:26.00\00:46:30.10 I'll count every 00:46:32.94\00:46:37.54 blessing 00:46:37.74\00:46:39.78 I'll go on 00:46:40.08\00:46:43.85 confessing 00:46:44.15\00:46:46.38 I'll tell it, Lord, 00:46:46.78\00:46:50.62 wherever 00:46:50.82\00:46:53.39 I may roam. 00:46:53.59\00:46:58.63 What He is 00:47:00.60\00:47:04.35 to you 00:47:04.65\00:47:07.98 maybe you cannot see. 00:47:08.38\00:47:14.04 But this thing 00:47:14.44\00:47:18.12 I know: 00:47:18.43\00:47:21.85 He's everything to me. 00:47:22.15\00:47:27.27 Oh, He'll be there... 00:47:27.47\00:47:31.65 yes, meet me there... 00:47:31.95\00:47:35.30 and then go where 00:47:35.60\00:47:39.30 He's prepared. I'll tell it, Lord, 00:47:39.70\00:47:45.70 wherever 00:47:45.90\00:47:48.62 I may go. 00:47:48.82\00:47:54.40 And if I 00:47:55.95\00:47:59.47 were dying 00:47:59.87\00:48:03.19 with just one word to say, 00:48:03.49\00:48:09.34 I'd speak it 00:48:09.65\00:48:13.18 for Jesus 00:48:13.58\00:48:16.88 then breathe my life away. 00:48:17.18\00:48:22.41 Oh, He'll be there... 00:48:22.61\00:48:26.86 yes, meet me there... 00:48:27.16\00:48:30.89 and then go where 00:48:31.19\00:48:34.63 He's prepared. 00:48:34.83\00:48:37.23 I'll tell it, Lord, 00:48:37.33\00:48:41.31 wherever 00:48:41.34\00:48:45.27 I 00:48:45.57\00:48:50.25 may go. 00:48:50.89\00:48:56.80 Amen. 00:49:02.31\00:49:04.29 Thank you, Tammy. Always appreciate Tammy. 00:49:08.41\00:49:11.11 She sings from her heart, doesn't she? 00:49:11.21\00:49:13.08 Yes she does! 00:49:13.38\00:49:14.89 And you know something? She sings songs people like. 00:49:15.19\00:49:17.65 And don't you like people that sing songs you like? 00:49:17.95\00:49:22.35 I do, I'll tell you! 00:49:23.66\00:49:25.55 And Tammy has this ability that not everybody has. 00:49:25.85\00:49:28.64 Danny has it. She never gets nervous, 00:49:28.84\00:49:31.52 and that just amazes me. 00:49:31.62\00:49:32.98 Yeah. And so she's got that. 00:49:33.18\00:49:34.95 I don't know what her problem is. My Dad said: "Son... " 00:49:35.06\00:49:36.94 when I was young I'd get up front somewhere and he'd say: 00:49:37.04\00:49:39.44 "Don't you ever get nervous? " And I'd say: "No, 00:49:39.54\00:49:41.40 am I supposed to? " He said: "I don't think you're 00:49:41.50\00:49:43.82 sharp enough to get nervous. " He said: "You should be. " 00:49:43.92\00:49:46.49 He said: "Anybody that's a little sharper than that 00:49:46.59\00:49:49.27 would get nervous. " Well maybe I'm just not the sharpest knife 00:49:49.37\00:49:52.61 in the drawer. Well Tammy's sharp enough but for some reason 00:49:52.71\00:49:55.95 she doesn't. She's sharp but she still doesn't get nervous. 00:49:56.05\00:49:58.93 You know what? Seriously, we're all just alike, aren't we? 00:49:59.03\00:50:01.11 So if you're up here if I trip and fall 00:50:01.31\00:50:03.13 if you were up here you'd probably trip and fall. 00:50:03.24\00:50:04.96 So I mean we'd just be ourselves and that's all we are. 00:50:05.16\00:50:07.89 And people say: "Why I heard you say something one night 00:50:08.09\00:50:10.80 on television that I didn't like. " 00:50:10.90\00:50:12.58 One person said: "I've watched you for years 00:50:12.78\00:50:15.01 and the other night you said something I didn't like. " 00:50:15.22\00:50:16.87 And I said: "That's the only time - yeah - 00:50:17.07\00:50:18.67 that I said something you didn't like? I say stuff I don't like 00:50:18.87\00:50:21.36 every day. " Every day. So I'm used to it. 00:50:21.46\00:50:23.97 But you know, when you're up you just be yourself that's all. 00:50:24.07\00:50:27.37 Yeah, I said something in Sacramento. 00:50:27.50\00:50:29.76 We got a... someone called and left a note 00:50:29.96\00:50:32.84 that I said something in Sacramento 00:50:33.04\00:50:35.35 that they didn't like. 00:50:35.45\00:50:37.07 And I thought "Man alive! " 00:50:37.28\00:50:40.03 Camille thinks... says you do things she doesn't like 00:50:40.23\00:50:43.14 all the time. All the time... that's right. 00:50:43.24\00:50:45.43 Sorry, Camille... I shouldn't speak for you. 00:50:45.63\00:50:47.29 For somebody that wants to be critical of those that will 00:50:47.59\00:50:49.74 get up front, come try it some time. Oh, yeah. 00:50:49.84\00:50:52.29 I recall the time when I would be so nervous 00:50:52.49\00:50:54.28 I couldn't get enough air in my lungs to force a word out. 00:50:54.38\00:50:57.21 We're not reading a script, folks. 00:50:57.41\00:50:58.95 In fact, we were back there trying to figure out 00:50:59.15\00:51:01.37 what we were going to do just when we came out just now. 00:51:01.47\00:51:03.68 So... And so what we want to do is talk about 00:51:03.88\00:51:06.54 some of the areas of need for this ministry. 00:51:06.74\00:51:09.43 You know, we aren't doing doing Behind the Scenes 00:51:09.63\00:51:11.64 like we once did. Have ya'll noticed that? 00:51:11.74\00:51:14.36 And on those Behind the Scenes we had this great opportunity 00:51:14.57\00:51:19.01 to share with our viewers and our listeners 00:51:19.21\00:51:21.95 those things that are needed here at... 00:51:22.16\00:51:24.21 just open up a little window and let you look in 00:51:24.41\00:51:27.50 to what goes on behind the scenes of 3ABN 00:51:27.60\00:51:30.04 to see what some of the great needs are. 00:51:30.07\00:51:32.53 Because as we say so often 00:51:32.83\00:51:34.34 and we've mentioned here... Danny, you did such a wonderful 00:51:34.54\00:51:36.68 job this morning expressing the needs of 3ABN. 00:51:36.78\00:51:40.07 That's right. But for this ministry to continue to reach 00:51:40.17\00:51:42.87 the four corners of the earth... Do you believe God has 00:51:43.07\00:51:45.29 called this ministry to do an end-time work? 00:51:45.39\00:51:47.86 Amen! Yes. In my opinion, 3ABN is 00:51:48.06\00:51:50.81 one of the greatest... not the only... 00:51:50.91\00:51:53.20 but one the greatest tools in the hand of God - that's right - 00:51:53.40\00:51:57.36 to proclaim this precious message that God has entrusted 00:51:57.46\00:52:02.92 to our church. Who else is going to do it 00:52:03.03\00:52:04.94 if we don't do it? - that's right; that's right - 00:52:05.04\00:52:06.62 to get this message to the four corners of the earth? 00:52:06.72\00:52:08.62 And for us to accomplish all that God has called us 00:52:08.82\00:52:11.42 to accomplish there are things that we're going to have to do. 00:52:11.52\00:52:14.28 For instance, Julia was talking about 00:52:14.48\00:52:16.43 doing the conversion to HD in Russia. 00:52:18.07\00:52:21.80 Do you know we have to do that here in these United States 00:52:22.00\00:52:24.22 as well? And we have to do it before they do it in Russia. 00:52:24.32\00:52:27.93 And our need is great. 00:52:28.13\00:52:29.67 And we were in the office the other day - 00:52:29.87\00:52:31.86 Jim and Moses and myself - 00:52:32.06\00:52:33.61 and we were looking at some of these needs. 00:52:33.71\00:52:35.71 Needs before the end of the year, Danny. 00:52:35.91\00:52:38.40 We... stations that have got to be converted 00:52:38.50\00:52:41.93 because, Jim, if they're not converted what happens? 00:52:42.13\00:52:44.42 They go dark because... And we have about 16 of them 00:52:44.52\00:52:47.41 that have to be converted by January 1. 00:52:47.61\00:52:51.73 When you say "converted" you mean what? 00:52:51.93\00:52:53.87 Analog to digital. 00:52:54.07\00:52:55.91 What does approximately each one of them cost? 00:52:56.11\00:52:58.26 It takes about $50,000 each. 00:52:58.36\00:53:00.00 We've paid some of that down. 00:53:00.20\00:53:02.06 We need about half a million dollars that has to come in 00:53:02.26\00:53:04.88 over and above our regular operating 00:53:04.98\00:53:07.08 by January 1 in order to get that done. 00:53:07.28\00:53:10.51 And I look out at Dan who is working by himself 00:53:10.71\00:53:14.06 doing some of this, and he knows good and well 00:53:14.26\00:53:15.99 that even with all the money we can't get them all done 00:53:16.10\00:53:18.71 before the first of the year. 00:53:18.91\00:53:19.91 But we can get a lot of them done and then we can hopefully 00:53:20.11\00:53:23.77 apply for an extension on a few of them 00:53:23.98\00:53:27.13 so that they don't go dark and then we can get them done. 00:53:27.33\00:53:29.77 But we have to have the components in hand 00:53:30.07\00:53:34.37 so that we can physically get it all done. 00:53:34.57\00:53:37.43 That's just one of the challenges. 00:53:37.63\00:53:38.99 As Moses and Jim and I were talking 00:53:39.09\00:53:40.85 and we were looking at this, and we see it 00:53:41.05\00:53:43.23 in the physical... what we can see with our natural eye... 00:53:43.33\00:53:46.78 it's an impossibility. 00:53:46.98\00:53:48.25 So what... You know what we did? 00:53:48.45\00:53:49.95 We stopped and we prayed because unless God 00:53:50.15\00:53:53.77 moves on our behalf - and we know He will... 00:53:53.97\00:53:56.43 How many of you know that God wants those stations 00:53:56.63\00:53:58.59 to continue broadcasting the gospel more than we do? Amen. 00:53:58.79\00:54:02.12 Amen. But we need your help. 00:54:02.32\00:54:04.73 That... I guess that's the bottom line, isn't it, Danny? 00:54:04.94\00:54:07.32 Well a little earlier they showed me the figures 00:54:07.62\00:54:10.97 they'd written down. And I said: "I don't think 00:54:11.17\00:54:13.07 we ought to go out and show those figures... 00:54:13.17\00:54:14.92 it'd scare everybody. " That's right. 00:54:15.02\00:54:16.77 And it's really that much. But I've found out 00:54:16.97\00:54:18.88 as I've been saying for a lot of years... 00:54:18.98\00:54:20.85 as the guy said one time: "How do you eat an elephant? " 00:54:21.05\00:54:23.76 "One bite at a time. " That's right. 00:54:23.96\00:54:25.70 And so if you get looking too far ahead 00:54:25.80\00:54:27.68 and too much money it'd be discouraging, so 00:54:27.79\00:54:29.60 we just have to continue to go on our knees 00:54:29.70\00:54:31.92 and say: "One day at a time, Lord. 00:54:32.02\00:54:34.03 This is our needs. You know what they are. 00:54:34.23\00:54:35.76 Please supply them. " And you know, the great thing about this 00:54:35.97\00:54:38.56 is it's a great challenge 00:54:38.66\00:54:40.99 because even though the government's mandated this 00:54:41.19\00:54:43.65 we go from one channel now to four plus radio 00:54:43.85\00:54:48.14 that we can put on in all these cities. 00:54:48.34\00:54:50.49 So that means that Dare to Dream and Proclaim 00:54:50.69\00:54:53.87 and our Sonbeam channel... 00:54:54.07\00:54:58.24 all of these different ones can go on as well as 3ABN. 00:54:58.44\00:55:02.03 So that's exciting. And by the way, 00:55:02.33\00:55:04.38 another challenge that we have is Dare to Dream is going to go 00:55:04.58\00:55:09.13 on satellite by faith on January 1. Yes! 00:55:09.24\00:55:13.51 We hope to be able to keep Proclaim on at the same time. 00:55:13.81\00:55:17.52 How many of you are enjoying Proclaim? 00:55:17.72\00:55:19.59 You watch Proclaim? All right... see a lot of hands 00:55:19.89\00:55:22.37 there, and we're hoping to keep both on. 00:55:22.47\00:55:24.62 But it will take $21,000 a month 00:55:24.82\00:55:27.82 for us to have both of them on... 00:55:28.12\00:55:31.23 additional to what we're paying already. 00:55:31.53\00:55:34.19 That's just band width charge. 00:55:34.29\00:55:36.32 But it's one of those things that we were talking about 00:55:36.42\00:55:37.82 today: the stop and go. You have to go because - 00:55:37.92\00:55:40.37 yeah - never in history has there been a time 00:55:40.57\00:55:43.16 that minority programming will be accepted 00:55:43.36\00:55:46.71 and is wanted by cable stations all across America - 00:55:46.91\00:55:49.93 that's right - in major cities. And we have the programming 00:55:50.03\00:55:52.61 and it's a matter... The only way they can get it is 00:55:52.81\00:55:55.50 when we go to satellite... A lot of you get it on the 00:55:55.70\00:55:57.90 Internet, but that's not the way of the cable stations. 00:55:58.00\00:56:00.69 So we have to be able to send it to satellite 00:56:00.90\00:56:03.08 in order to do that. That's that $21,000 a month. 00:56:03.29\00:56:06.04 So how do you say "no" to potentially reaching 00:56:06.24\00:56:10.24 millions of people every day not only here in the United States 00:56:10.45\00:56:13.73 of America but around the world. I mean 00:56:13.83\00:56:15.36 it's just something... this thing... we have to go 00:56:15.57\00:56:17.98 and yet every day we don't know how we're going to... 00:56:18.18\00:56:20.84 But somehow God always has done it, so we're just 00:56:20.95\00:56:23.28 appealing to His people as the Holy Spirit impresses 00:56:23.38\00:56:26.64 to say: "What can I do? " Those of you at home, 00:56:26.84\00:56:28.84 those of you here, what can we do to make a difference? 00:56:28.94\00:56:31.31 Your five dollars a month does make a difference. 00:56:31.51\00:56:33.52 Yes it does. Your $10 a month makes a difference. 00:56:33.73\00:56:35.67 $50... $100 as a one-time gift. 00:56:35.70\00:56:38.31 So no gift is unappreciated and no gift is too small 00:56:38.45\00:56:42.03 because we've seen it... Years ago we had a point 00:56:42.17\00:56:45.32 where we had several large donors - yes. 00:56:45.42\00:56:48.27 And when we first started several people really jumped in 00:56:48.37\00:56:50.92 and we had a lot of... you know, not as many smaller donors. 00:56:51.05\00:56:54.23 Today we have less large donors 00:56:54.43\00:56:56.28 but many more people giving the $20, the $50. 00:56:56.48\00:57:00.26 And that's what keeps 3ABN going - that's right - 00:57:00.46\00:57:02.94 and what keeps us growing is the extra gifts, 00:57:03.14\00:57:04.94 the investment that you all do, 00:57:05.04\00:57:06.51 the things that you maybe have at home that people donate: 00:57:06.71\00:57:09.62 an old car or a motorhome, or whatever else. 00:57:09.83\00:57:13.13 People say: "Well we sold a home. We have some extra money 00:57:13.33\00:57:16.01 that we can give. " Whatever. 00:57:16.11\00:57:17.80 And all of that mounts up, so thank you so much 00:57:18.00\00:57:20.07 for what you do for the cause of God in support of 3ABN. 00:57:20.17\00:57:23.16 Well we're coming down to the end of this hour 00:57:23.29\00:57:25.54 but we'll be back at 6... six o'clock... with another 00:57:25.64\00:57:29.03 message by Elder Bradford. 00:57:29.13\00:57:31.01 And then we'll have a message by Pastor Mark Finley. 00:57:31.21\00:57:34.45 And we are looking forward to wrapping up our Camp Meeting 00:57:34.66\00:57:38.60 this evening with those two powerful messages. 00:57:38.80\00:57:42.54 And, Danny, I know this is...
