And want blessings to see
how full this auditorium is,
00:00:19.01\00:00:22.57
it's amazing.
00:00:22.60\00:00:23.71
I think there's not
gonna be room for everyone
00:00:23.74\00:00:26.01
and that's a
problem that we appreciate.
00:00:26.04\00:00:29.16
Thank you for
coming to ASI and I'm sure
00:00:29.19\00:00:32.09
you're going to
enjoy a wonderful program
00:00:32.12\00:00:34.30
this morning no doubt about it.
00:00:34.33\00:00:37.21
Just a real blessing
and I just want to say
00:00:37.24\00:00:40.91
that we're going to
have a good time today
00:00:40.94\00:00:42.81
and the Lord is going to
be a blessing to all of us.
00:00:42.84\00:00:45.03
I hope that you're
praying in your heart
00:00:45.06\00:00:47.16
that the Holy
Spirit would come down
00:00:47.19\00:00:48.74
and communicate
with each of our souls,
00:00:48.77\00:00:51.10
that's what we need this morning
00:00:51.13\00:00:52.88
and that's what
we're going to need
00:00:52.91\00:00:54.17
when we leave this place.
00:00:54.20\00:00:55.35
God bless you.
00:00:55.38\00:00:56.71
Wow, happy Sabbath.
00:01:04.32\00:01:07.97
What an opportunity
to worship together.
00:01:08.00\00:01:11.89
Let us talk to our
Lord, our Creator in prayer.
00:01:11.92\00:01:14.35
Let's all kneel.
00:01:14.38\00:01:15.65
Oh, Lord dear Father in heaven,
00:01:28.59\00:01:32.85
this is such a
special Sabbath today.
00:01:32.88\00:01:36.90
What an opportunity for
us to come together as family
00:01:36.93\00:01:40.37
from all corners
of the United States
00:01:40.40\00:01:42.75
and the world.
00:01:42.78\00:01:45.55
We're not here just to
be friendly with each other
00:01:45.58\00:01:48.74
but to worship You.
00:01:48.77\00:01:51.44
May our worship be acceptable
in Your eyes and Your ears
00:01:51.47\00:01:57.08
and I ask that You
move upon each one of us,
00:01:57.11\00:02:02.44
that when this service
is over we are not the same
00:02:02.47\00:02:05.90
as when we came in the stores.
00:02:05.93\00:02:08.79
Do not let us
leave ASI this weekend
00:02:08.82\00:02:13.18
without being different.
00:02:13.21\00:02:15.67
I ask to move on us,
00:02:15.70\00:02:17.72
send the Holy
Spirit into this room.
00:02:17.75\00:02:22.25
Make our hearts
ready for the words
00:02:22.28\00:02:24.33
we are going to hear today.
00:02:24.36\00:02:27.28
We thank Him, we
look forward to the day
00:02:27.31\00:02:29.52
when we worship
You face to face.
00:02:29.55\00:02:34.53
May we all be there
00:02:34.56\00:02:36.21
that is our prayer
in Jesus name, amen.
00:02:36.24\00:02:38.85
Please stand and join me
00:02:50.70\00:02:52.05
on our opening song
"Jesus Shall Reign."
00:02:52.08\00:02:55.58
Jesus shall reign
00:03:36.22\00:03:39.74
Were'er the sun
00:03:39.77\00:03:45.52
Does its successive
00:03:45.55\00:03:50.34
Journeys run
00:03:50.37\00:03:55.10
His kingdom stretch
00:03:55.13\00:03:58.43
From shore to shore
00:03:58.46\00:04:04.15
Till moons shall wax
00:04:04.18\00:04:08.14
And wane no more
00:04:08.17\00:04:15.71
People and realms
00:04:15.74\00:04:19.28
Of every tongue
00:04:19.31\00:04:25.09
Dwell on His love
00:04:25.12\00:04:28.85
With sweetest song
00:04:28.88\00:04:34.79
And infant voices
00:04:34.82\00:04:39.55
Shall proclaim
00:04:39.58\00:04:44.44
Their earthly blessings
00:04:44.47\00:04:49.65
On His name
00:04:49.68\00:04:56.48
Blessings abound
00:04:56.51\00:05:00.02
Where'er He reigns
00:05:00.05\00:05:05.95
The pris'ners leap
00:05:05.98\00:05:09.70
To lose their chains
00:05:09.73\00:05:15.85
The weary find
00:05:15.88\00:05:19.62
Eternal rest
00:05:19.65\00:05:25.92
And all who suffer
00:05:25.95\00:05:31.02
Want are blest
00:05:31.05\00:05:37.03
Let every creature rise
00:05:50.80\00:05:57.14
And bring
00:05:57.17\00:06:00.47
Peculiar honors
00:06:00.50\00:06:05.26
To our King
00:06:05.29\00:06:10.12
Angels descend
00:06:10.15\00:06:13.52
With songs again
00:06:13.55\00:06:19.78
And earth repeat
00:06:19.81\00:06:24.18
The loud amen
00:06:24.21\00:06:31.32
Please be
seated. Please be seated.
00:06:38.58\00:06:41.92
Happy Sabbath, ASI family.
00:06:41.95\00:06:44.98
I am so glad to have
the Sabbath here today.
00:06:45.01\00:06:49.07
Those of you
have had the privilege
00:06:49.10\00:06:50.87
that being with us
throughout the convention
00:06:50.90\00:06:54.18
have heard reports from projects
00:06:54.21\00:06:56.88
that are within
our offering today.
00:06:56.91\00:06:58.43
We are gonna have a few more
to inspire and encourage you.
00:06:58.46\00:07:02.28
So with this time I'd
like to invite Terry Anderson,
00:07:02.31\00:07:06.64
he is the vice
president for evangelism for ASI
00:07:06.67\00:07:10.11
to come out with
his team to share about
00:07:10.14\00:07:13.71
something really
exciting happening.
00:07:13.74\00:07:16.56
How many people
here have iPhones?
00:07:16.59\00:07:18.13
Can I see them,
please hold them up?
00:07:18.16\00:07:19.60
How many people

Keep hold them up. Androids.
00:07:24.83\00:07:28.85
How many have iPods?
00:07:28.88\00:07:30.92
Anybody got iPads? Okay.
00:07:30.95\00:07:34.05

00:07:37.97\00:07:39.80
Android tablets. Okay.
00:07:39.83\00:07:42.86
You know,
Denzel, we are out here
00:07:42.89\00:07:45.00
talking about DVD project.
00:07:45.03\00:07:46.06
Is it possible we don't
need to talk about DVD's any?
00:07:46.09\00:07:48.74
Is that DVD project not
gonna have DVD's anymore?
00:07:48.77\00:07:52.67
Everyone that
held their hands up
00:07:52.70\00:07:54.39
you now I have all you need
00:07:54.42\00:07:57.24
to hold a complete
evangelistic campaign.
00:07:57.27\00:08:01.18
You have all you
need to hold Bible studies
00:08:01.21\00:08:04.00
but it's a tool
that has to be used.
00:08:04.03\00:08:07.22
Today, we are gonna
talk about a brand new tool
00:08:07.25\00:08:09.68
that is being introduced
for the first time this morning
00:08:09.71\00:08:12.94
and it's simply called
our ASI Evangelism app.
00:08:12.97\00:08:17.24
Now, I want
you-- I don't want you
00:08:17.27\00:08:20.03
all trying to
download it right now.
00:08:20.06\00:08:21.64
You can download it
after we are finished
00:08:21.67\00:08:23.26
with this
presentation all right.
00:08:23.29\00:08:25.03
But we have now created
all of-- it's actually like
00:08:25.06\00:08:29.90
a complete database
of resources everything
00:08:29.93\00:08:32.86
that you need to hold
the DVD evangelistic meeting.
00:08:32.89\00:08:36.46
And I'm gonna put
the app right up here
00:08:36.49\00:08:39.39
such you can see it on
the screen here in a moment.
00:08:39.42\00:08:42.33
It has six tabs and
I just want you sense
00:08:42.36\00:08:44.97
that we have Bible study guides
from the Discover Bible school,
00:08:45.00\00:08:50.07
all the Discover Bible
lessons the entire package
00:08:50.10\00:08:52.32
of Bible study
lessons are on this app.
00:08:52.35\00:08:55.57
And you know the other thing is
00:08:55.60\00:08:58.17
evangelism presentations
the new beginnings--
00:08:58.20\00:09:00.21
we may have to start
talking new beginnings
00:09:00.24\00:09:02.69
instead of DVD, Denzel.
00:09:02.72\00:09:04.95
And new beginnings, all
the new beginnings programs
00:09:04.98\00:09:08.52
that you need to
conduct an evangelistic meeting
00:09:08.55\00:09:10.41
are right here on this app.
00:09:10.44\00:09:12.18
Downloadable from our app store.
00:09:12.21\00:09:14.24
So those of you
that have DVD's or CD's
00:09:14.27\00:09:18.74
or Cassettes or some
of us even have 8-tracks,
00:09:18.77\00:09:21.95
remember those?
00:09:21.98\00:09:23.41
You don't need those anymore.
00:09:23.44\00:09:25.01
You can put
everything right on your phone
00:09:25.04\00:09:26.72
or on your tablet.
00:09:26.75\00:09:28.71
Okay.
00:09:28.74\00:09:29.87
And then not only do
you have the regular slides
00:09:29.90\00:09:32.99
that you would need,
now I want to show those
00:09:33.02\00:09:34.49
in just a minute here and
searching see how they work
00:09:34.52\00:09:37.03
but our health
evangelism Abundant Living.
00:09:37.06\00:09:38.74
Terry, you been using,
00:09:38.77\00:09:39.88
you know, the
Abundant Living as well.
00:09:39.91\00:09:41.89
The health app.
00:09:41.92\00:09:43.00
You know, we all know about
what health evangelism does
00:09:43.03\00:09:45.99
but at the entering wedge.
00:09:46.02\00:09:47.69
Now you'll be able
to have all those tools
00:09:47.72\00:09:51.18
right on at your finger tips.
00:09:51.21\00:09:53.61
You download them
no matter where you go,
00:09:53.64\00:09:55.78
you have lunch with a friend,
00:09:55.81\00:09:57.42
you can go through
a health presentation
00:09:57.45\00:09:59.32
over lunch right there
on your phone or your pad.
00:09:59.35\00:10:03.25
Okay.
00:10:03.28\00:10:04.31
Now just as an
example something people say
00:10:04.34\00:10:06.19
okay, I've got it on
my iPod or on my iPhone
00:10:06.22\00:10:08.30
or on my android pod
or on my android phone
00:10:08.33\00:10:10.72
so how am I
gonna make that work?
00:10:10.75\00:10:12.29
You know, one of the
things is gonna happen with this
00:10:12.32\00:10:14.20
is we lose the DVD and
we lose the DVD player.
00:10:14.23\00:10:20.10
So no more lugging around
those big heavy boxes in that
00:10:20.13\00:10:22.68
when you go in.
00:10:22.71\00:10:23.96
You'll be able either
plug this with the wire
00:10:23.99\00:10:26.42
into a projector or wirelessly
00:10:26.45\00:10:29.19
with the Apple TV
box or the new Google--
00:10:29.22\00:10:31.38
Google Chrome plug-in that
was just announced last week.
00:10:31.41\00:10:34.03
We tried to get on to show you
00:10:34.06\00:10:35.32
and they are not
available quiet yet,
00:10:35.35\00:10:36.60
but they are close.
00:10:36.63\00:10:37.86
Or if you just you and I Dan,
00:10:37.89\00:10:39.96
we can just both look on the pad
00:10:39.99\00:10:41.16
and just do it right
there-- right from there.
00:10:41.19\00:10:42.23
That' right.
00:10:42.26\00:10:43.29
I can hold it up like
this so everybody can see
00:10:43.32\00:10:45.30
and Denzel can have it
on his iPad we can do that.
00:10:45.33\00:10:48.49
But in addition of that we
have the training materials.
00:10:48.52\00:10:53.03
How many of you ever said man,
00:10:53.06\00:10:54.17
if I just knew
what to speak on this?
00:10:54.20\00:10:56.13
Well, we actually
have the training materials
00:10:56.16\00:10:58.37
and I'm gonna
pull this up right here
00:10:58.40\00:10:59.70
so the camera can see this.
00:10:59.73\00:11:01.26
The Ellen G. White
status been very kind
00:11:01.29\00:11:03.01
and given us permission to put
00:11:03.04\00:11:05.63
a PDF of the book
Evangelism on this app.
00:11:05.66\00:11:09.65
So if you are wanting a little--
00:11:09.68\00:11:11.39
you know something to read,
00:11:11.42\00:11:12.81
inspire yourself the
whole book Evangelism is there.
00:11:12.84\00:11:15.76
In addition of that Elder Finley
00:11:15.79\00:11:18.33
has recorded a 14 to 15
minute little presentation
00:11:18.36\00:11:23.13
on each one of a New Beginnings
evangelistic presentations
00:11:23.16\00:11:26.78
and that is on here too
00:11:26.81\00:11:28.02
so that you can
actually listen it.
00:11:28.05\00:11:29.58
We've only got up
in audio to begin with,
00:11:29.61\00:11:32.08
but it's also going to be video
00:11:32.11\00:11:33.77
since they get
compression right on this.
00:11:33.80\00:11:36.19
So you can actually sit
down and listen to Pastor Finley
00:11:36.22\00:11:38.59
tell you how the conduct
this evangelistic sermon.
00:11:38.62\00:11:42.07
Just before you'd have to do it,
00:11:42.10\00:11:43.28
you got 15 minutes.
00:11:43.31\00:11:45.77
Now, Terry, you
jump and go ahead.
00:11:45.80\00:11:47.97
Well, I was gonna say,
00:11:48.00\00:11:49.04
you know, we did training
in New York City this year.
00:11:49.07\00:11:52.44
We did some DVD training.
00:11:52.47\00:11:54.37
But now when we
go to New York City
00:11:54.40\00:11:56.85
we won't have to take DVD's
00:11:56.88\00:11:58.44
because everybody
you'll have a devise.
00:11:58.47\00:12:00.34
We will just
give them instructions
00:12:00.37\00:12:01.66
on how to
download it and use it.
00:12:01.69\00:12:04.32
And another example of
that coming up is China.
00:12:04.35\00:12:08.09
We'll have an
opportunity to go to China
00:12:08.12\00:12:10.76
and lot of them have
their devices already.
00:12:10.79\00:12:13.78
So, we won't have to
take in of the equipment,
00:12:13.81\00:12:16.75
we'll be able to
take it in and show them
00:12:16.78\00:12:19.79
how to download it.
00:12:19.82\00:12:21.05
There's
provinces there that have
00:12:21.08\00:12:23.70
28.5 million
people 400 Adventist.
00:12:23.73\00:12:27.94
What kind of the impact
you think this could do?
00:12:27.97\00:12:30.90
What kind of impact you think
00:12:30.93\00:12:32.51
you could do with this
device in a country like China.
00:12:32.54\00:12:37.00
Now, one more element to this
what about little inspiration?
00:12:37.03\00:12:40.15
Let's say you got a
team of five or six people
00:12:40.18\00:12:42.82
that are all out on location.
00:12:42.85\00:12:44.11
You're gonna be
conducting five or six meetings
00:12:44.14\00:12:45.93
and the all the
speakers really together.
00:12:45.96\00:12:47.87
We're actually have
taken seven of our evangelists
00:12:47.90\00:12:52.61
that have preached a sermon
00:12:52.64\00:12:54.21
on why evangelism
or something like that
00:12:54.24\00:12:57.15
and we have put
those sermons on here
00:12:57.18\00:12:59.52
so that you could
easily sit down of a team
00:12:59.55\00:13:01.47
and you can listen the
Pastor Mark Finley preach
00:13:01.50\00:13:03.37
why evangelism?
00:13:03.40\00:13:04.44
Or Pastor Shawn Boonstra preach
about my Father's Business
00:13:04.47\00:13:07.66
or Doug Batchelor
preaching, Sharing Your Faith,
00:13:07.69\00:13:09.94
Ken Cox, Living Waters,
00:13:09.97\00:13:11.53
David
Asscherick the Golden Rule,
00:13:11.56\00:13:13.30
John Bradshaw and I don't have
his title right in front of me
00:13:13.33\00:13:16.11
and we're so
confident of the sermon
00:13:16.14\00:13:18.02
that you're about to
here by Elder C.D. Brooks
00:13:18.05\00:13:20.55
I'm telling you
right now his sermon
00:13:20.58\00:13:21.95
is gonna be on here as well
00:13:21.98\00:13:23.96
and we're quiet
excited about that.
00:13:23.99\00:13:25.84
Now what I'd
like to do in the time
00:13:25.87\00:13:27.48
I've got I want to go
actually right to the actual
00:13:27.51\00:13:32.90
New Beginnings presentation here
00:13:32.93\00:13:34.39
so that you can
actually get a sense.
00:13:34.42\00:13:36.60
Here is how this would
look on the big screen, okay.
00:13:36.63\00:13:40.73
Simply with my finger
I can move this across
00:13:40.76\00:13:43.62
and I am holding
this iPad in my hand
00:13:43.65\00:13:45.41
and I am preaching the sermon.
00:13:45.44\00:13:47.50
This is what is seen
publicly by the group.
00:13:47.53\00:13:50.26
Now I want to show you
00:13:50.29\00:13:52.71
how easy it is to
actually make this go
00:13:52.74\00:13:56.58
so I can now look at it
little bit differently, okay.
00:13:56.61\00:14:01.10
Here we go.
00:14:01.13\00:14:02.59
Now, as the
presenter this is the scene
00:14:02.62\00:14:05.50
that I see and I've got my text
00:14:05.53\00:14:07.26
and my script
right in front of me,
00:14:07.29\00:14:09.18
as I move this
across the script changes
00:14:09.21\00:14:12.27
so I know exactly what to say.
00:14:12.30\00:14:13.75
Now anybody can
preach the sermon right.
00:14:13.78\00:14:16.82
Anybody can preach the sermon.
00:14:16.85\00:14:18.64
So, we're
extremely proud of this
00:14:18.67\00:14:21.02
and pleased with this
00:14:21.05\00:14:22.52
and think it has huge potential.
00:14:22.55\00:14:25.02
Now, Denzel.
00:14:25.05\00:14:26.94
Dan, how much is this cost?
00:14:26.97\00:14:28.13
You know, this is
free, this is free.
00:14:28.16\00:14:31.28
But it really isn't free is
it. Because there's a price.
00:14:31.31\00:14:34.78
Because when
you-- when you get this
00:14:34.81\00:14:36.87
you need to share it.
00:14:36.90\00:14:38.74
That's what it's about,
00:14:38.77\00:14:39.80
it doesn't do any good sitting
on your iPhone or your iPad,
00:14:39.83\00:14:43.45
its a truth you'll be used
to tell others about Jesus.
00:14:43.48\00:14:46.93
I just want to say as we come
00:14:46.96\00:14:48.26
to the close of our
potion of this presentation
00:14:48.29\00:14:51.76
that we are add a point of new
beginning for New Beginnings.
00:14:51.79\00:14:56.99
We have had a wonderful
run so far using the technology
00:14:57.02\00:14:59.72
that we have
now anybody anywhere
00:14:59.75\00:15:02.41
can download these apps.
00:15:02.44\00:15:03.51
In fact, we discovered this
00:15:03.54\00:15:04.58
just went up live
on the Apple I store
00:15:04.61\00:15:07.17
and on the android or actually
00:15:07.20\00:15:09.10
it's the Google play
store in the last 24 hours.
00:15:09.13\00:15:12.70
We already have people
downloading this from UK
00:15:12.73\00:15:16.61
that didn't know-- I
mean this you're hearing about
00:15:16.64\00:15:18.51
for the very first time,
nobody has known about this
00:15:18.54\00:15:20.61
but somebody found
that on the app store
00:15:20.64\00:15:22.26
anybody anywhere
will be able to download
00:15:22.29\00:15:25.50
and use these
tools and we believe that
00:15:25.53\00:15:28.45
this is perfect
timing for the new thrust
00:15:28.48\00:15:33.19
that is gonna be happening
in evangelism around the world
00:15:33.22\00:15:36.16
and we want you
all be part of that.
00:15:36.19\00:15:38.13
Thank you, Amen,
00:15:38.16\00:15:39.41
Thank you very much.
00:15:41.39\00:15:44.26
And now coming
to join me as a team
00:15:44.29\00:15:46.70
from Fountainview Academy
located in British Columbia
00:15:46.73\00:15:50.46
and they've embarked
00:15:50.49\00:15:51.78
on a different
type of technology doing
00:15:51.81\00:15:55.24
or they actually
just got it back recently
00:15:55.27\00:15:57.87
from filming a
musical production,
00:15:57.90\00:16:01.38
capturing about
the first 17 chapters
00:16:01.41\00:16:04.00
of the Great Controversy
00:16:04.03\00:16:05.75
following in the foot steps
of the reformers in Europe.
00:16:05.78\00:16:09.23
Can you imagine?
00:16:09.26\00:16:10.61
So, with me on my
left is Michael Dunbar,
00:16:10.64\00:16:12.75
he is the vice president,
00:16:12.78\00:16:14.22
the general vice president
from Fountainview Academy,
00:16:14.25\00:16:16.67
next to him James
Cleveland one of their students,
00:16:16.70\00:16:19.78
his father Craig Cleveland
who is musical director
00:16:19.81\00:16:23.27
and also fills a number of
other roll set Fountainview
00:16:23.30\00:16:26.62
and John Bradshaw speaker
director for It Is Written.
00:16:26.65\00:16:30.30
Michael, I want to
start with you and ask you,
00:16:30.33\00:16:33.23
what transpired I know that
has things get out the gate,
00:16:33.26\00:16:36.44
there's a lot of
planning that needs to occur
00:16:36.47\00:16:39.00
but I also
understand that you seen
00:16:39.03\00:16:40.53
God's hand all
along the process.
00:16:40.56\00:16:42.90
Share a little
bit of that with us.
00:16:42.93\00:16:44.62
Well, we saw God working
even before we left for Europe.
00:16:44.65\00:16:49.22
We planned over a
year for this trip
00:16:49.25\00:16:51.64
and as we
boarded the plane though
00:16:51.67\00:16:54.80
we still hadn't secured
some of our sites in Rome.
00:16:54.83\00:16:58.61
And so we were working
on that while on the plane
00:16:58.64\00:17:01.30
and then airports we
headed to Europe a week
00:17:01.33\00:17:04.23
before we were in Rome and
while we are at ASI Europe,
00:17:04.26\00:17:08.76
Sabbath morning we
got an email saying,
00:17:08.79\00:17:11.20
one of the sites
that we had planned
00:17:11.23\00:17:12.70
for in Rome down the road
00:17:12.73\00:17:14.79
from the Coliseum
was no longer available.
00:17:14.82\00:17:17.83
And so we prayed
00:17:17.86\00:17:20.16
and we asked the Lord to show us
00:17:20.19\00:17:21.68
what He wants us to do.
00:17:21.71\00:17:23.10
And there was an
other site that I had seen
00:17:23.13\00:17:25.24
when I was there
scouting in April
00:17:25.27\00:17:28.15
and I asked for that
site and we sent an email off
00:17:28.18\00:17:32.55
and we said, you
know, what its Sabbath
00:17:32.58\00:17:33.92
we are not gonna worry about it,
00:17:33.95\00:17:34.99
we're gonna leave
it in the Lord's hands
00:17:35.02\00:17:36.79
and will see what we find
in our email Sabbath evening.
00:17:36.82\00:17:40.46
And so when we checked
the email Sabbath evening
00:17:40.49\00:17:43.20
there was an email saying,
"Yes, you've got that site,
00:17:43.23\00:17:45.73
you can go ahead and use it."
00:17:45.76\00:17:47.60
And we showed up in Rome
00:17:47.63\00:17:48.88
and that was the best
site we can ever imagine.
00:17:48.91\00:17:51.08
It was smacked out in
front of the Coliseum,
00:17:51.11\00:17:54.30
the lighting was
beautiful and we filmed
00:17:54.33\00:17:56.04
there was no one
around and Lord just blessed.
00:17:56.07\00:17:58.67
And we experience miracles
like this every single day.
00:17:58.70\00:18:02.77
You know,
traveling with 44 kids,
00:18:02.80\00:18:05.34
16 staff in five
countries throughout Europe.
00:18:05.37\00:18:08.75
The Lord open
doors everywhere we want.
00:18:08.78\00:18:11.22
Thank you, Michael.
00:18:11.25\00:18:12.69
James this production is really
being designed to bless others
00:18:12.72\00:18:18.13
and to introduce
them to Jesus Christ.
00:18:18.16\00:18:20.09
What I want to know is
how has it blessed you?
00:18:20.12\00:18:23.52
You know, the way it blessed me
00:18:23.55\00:18:26.21
was a group of us
00:18:26.24\00:18:28.22
of Fountainview
on the tour decided
00:18:28.25\00:18:30.84
that we would read
in the Great Controversy
00:18:30.87\00:18:32.83
about the sites
that we are traveling to.
00:18:32.86\00:18:35.21
And so for example,
one morning in my devotions
00:18:35.24\00:18:38.39
I was reading about
Luther, how he was whisked away
00:18:38.42\00:18:42.27
to this castle
the Wartburg Castle.
00:18:42.30\00:18:45.12
And then later that day
we go to the Wartburg Castle
00:18:45.15\00:18:47.61
and I am singing, "A
Mighty Fortress Is Our God"
00:18:47.64\00:18:49.98
right in the middle of it
00:18:50.01\00:18:51.31
and that was just
an amazing experience.
00:18:51.34\00:18:53.80
And then another time
00:18:53.83\00:18:55.69
we are it Italy in
the Waldensian mountains
00:18:55.72\00:18:59.06
and that
morning I had read about
00:18:59.09\00:19:01.70
how these Waldensian
were cornered on the peak
00:19:01.73\00:19:07.62
and then they were hurled off
00:19:07.65\00:19:09.63
down thousands of
feet to the ground.
00:19:09.66\00:19:12.27
And then later that day
we hiked up to the top there
00:19:12.30\00:19:16.90
and we are singing,
"O Brother, Be Faithful"
00:19:16.93\00:19:19.36
and to me it was
just amazing to know,
00:19:19.39\00:19:22.10
you know, they
were faithful there
00:19:22.13\00:19:24.44
and what about me?
00:19:24.47\00:19:25.50
Am I gonna be faithful
to stand through my faith.
00:19:25.53\00:19:29.78
Craig, we have a trailer
00:19:29.81\00:19:31.68
if you will of this production
and then I'm wondering
00:19:31.71\00:19:35.50
if you could set it
up for us a little bit
00:19:35.53\00:19:37.60
and share with us
when will this be available
00:19:37.63\00:19:40.07
as a tool to be used?
00:19:40.10\00:19:41.60
This Great
Controversy Production
00:19:41.63\00:19:43.68
will be released next April
00:19:43.71\00:19:45.54
and I want show you a little
sneak preview of it right now
00:19:45.57\00:19:48.26
but, first I've
just got to tell you
00:19:48.29\00:19:49.75
if you want to
travel wherever you go
00:19:49.78\00:19:52.40
you want to be a
witness, don't you this is ASI?
00:19:52.43\00:19:54.89
We want a witness
and everywhere I go
00:19:54.92\00:19:56.49
I always have our
productions in my laptop bag
00:19:56.52\00:19:59.72
or in my suitcase or in my car
00:19:59.75\00:20:01.76
when I am driving and
its been so exciting to see
00:20:01.79\00:20:04.37
this is our fourth big
witness production to see
00:20:04.40\00:20:07.01
that its so effective.
00:20:07.04\00:20:08.07
It's easy and it's effective.
This is how it's easy.
00:20:08.10\00:20:11.08
If you're gonna sit on the plane
00:20:11.11\00:20:12.30
by so many get rider
then for several hours
00:20:12.33\00:20:14.09
you're praying
Lord, put me by somebody
00:20:14.12\00:20:16.10
that wants to know the truth.
00:20:16.13\00:20:17.24
Put me by somebody that's open.
00:20:17.27\00:20:19.11
You been praying that,
00:20:19.14\00:20:20.17
you wondering
is this the person?
00:20:20.20\00:20:21.77
And so you strike
up a conversation.
00:20:21.80\00:20:23.72
If you're gonna hand
them the Great Controversy
00:20:23.75\00:20:26.32
I believe it should be
easy and it can be easy.
00:20:26.35\00:20:28.87
Think of it this way, you
don't have the worry about
00:20:28.90\00:20:30.82
are they gonna ask us
666, or the mark of the beast
00:20:30.85\00:20:32.71
but just tell them about ASI,
00:20:32.74\00:20:35.22
tell them about
Fountainview Academy orchestra
00:20:35.25\00:20:37.25
and that ASI supported fund me
00:20:37.28\00:20:38.87
to go on this
history production in Europe
00:20:38.90\00:20:40.83
and the kids are amazing
when they sing and they play
00:20:40.86\00:20:43.88
and they play and
sing with their hearts
00:20:43.91\00:20:45.45
and then they tell the story
00:20:45.48\00:20:46.69
and the story comes
from this amazing text.
00:20:46.72\00:20:48.91
Whenever it looks like
world is gonna fall apart,
00:20:48.94\00:20:50.89
you get out this
text, you read it,
00:20:50.92\00:20:52.36
you're inspired, you
see how God led in the past
00:20:52.39\00:20:54.30
and how He is
gonna lead in the future
00:20:54.33\00:20:55.73
and you can trust God.
00:20:55.76\00:20:56.80
It's also effective.
00:20:56.83\00:20:58.43
Read 2 Kings Chapter 3,
00:20:58.46\00:21:00.19
just one of the
places in the Bible
00:21:00.22\00:21:01.69
where we know that's music
00:21:01.72\00:21:04.19
invites the
presence of the Holy Spirit.
00:21:04.22\00:21:05.68
When sacred music is
played the Holy Spirit is active
00:21:05.71\00:21:08.71
and then it will lead the people
00:21:08.74\00:21:10.16
to read the text and be there.
00:21:10.19\00:21:11.49
So in this little
clip we are gonna see
00:21:11.52\00:21:13.68
first the cave
and Waldensian valleys
00:21:13.71\00:21:15.84
where the people would hide,
when they are being pursued
00:21:15.87\00:21:18.78
or when they-- where
they would worship in secret.
00:21:18.81\00:21:20.83
Let me go to our theme song
00:21:20.86\00:21:22.85
"Mighty Fortress" in
several different locations.
00:21:22.88\00:21:24.70
The first one is the
Coliseum, the Wartburg Castle
00:21:24.73\00:21:27.38
we end up at the
Cohort of Berlin and Leibniz
00:21:27.41\00:21:30.00
where the-- it's the fort
where the conquerors would say
00:21:30.03\00:21:33.13
aloud across the Atlantic
such as Christopher Columbus.
00:21:33.16\00:21:35.41
Thank you we will watch that--
00:21:35.44\00:21:36.48
One more thing
Debbie, I have to say ASI,
00:21:36.51\00:21:38.76
thank you so much
for partnering with us
00:21:38.79\00:21:41.31
and helping us fund this
one wonderful production.
00:21:41.34\00:21:44.01
Faith of our
fathers, living still
00:21:46.18\00:21:52.67
In spite of
dungeon, fire and sword
00:21:52.70\00:21:59.03
O how our hearts
beat high with joy
00:21:59.06\00:22:05.13
Whene'er we hear
that glorious word!
00:22:05.16\00:22:11.42
Faith of our
fathers! Holy faith!
00:22:11.45\00:22:17.46
We will be true
to thee till death!
00:22:17.49\00:22:25.14
Welcome.
00:22:36.31\00:22:37.36
I'm your host John Bradshaw
and I am so glad you joined us
00:22:37.39\00:22:41.20
for the Great
Controversy Production
00:22:41.23\00:22:43.64
presented by
Fountainview Academy
00:22:43.67\00:22:45.87
orchestra and singers.
00:22:45.90\00:22:47.47
A mighty Fortress is our God,
00:22:56.18\00:23:01.23
A Bulwark never failing
00:23:01.26\00:23:06.30
Our Helper He amid the flood
00:23:06.33\00:23:11.32
Of mortal ills prevailing
00:23:11.35\00:23:17.76
For still our ancient foe
00:23:17.79\00:23:21.98
Doth seek to work us woe
00:23:22.01\00:23:26.35
His craft and power are great
00:23:26.38\00:23:30.63
And, armed with cruel hate
00:23:30.66\00:23:35.51
On earth is not his equal
00:23:35.54\00:23:41.72
Amen.
00:23:45.02\00:23:46.08
What a tool that
can be used for Jesus.
00:23:46.11\00:23:48.79
John, I understand that
00:23:48.82\00:23:50.66
you are the
narrator for this production
00:23:50.69\00:23:52.97
and this actually holds
special significance for you.
00:23:53.00\00:23:55.38
Share that with us.
00:23:55.41\00:23:56.44
It does, because on two levels
00:23:56.47\00:23:58.45
I became a Christian
in Europe, funny not.
00:23:58.48\00:24:00.89
I was there briefly and
that's where I met Jesus
00:24:00.92\00:24:03.33
and I became a Christian
and a Seventh-day Adventist
00:24:03.36\00:24:05.76
because I read
the Great Controversy.
00:24:05.79\00:24:08.49
God used that to bring
me to faith in Jesus Christ.
00:24:08.52\00:24:11.50
So to be part of this project,
00:24:11.53\00:24:13.60
this magnificent
production was from me
00:24:13.63\00:24:16.11
an absolute privilege
and I can tell you first hand
00:24:16.14\00:24:19.12
that when you share
this production with others,
00:24:19.15\00:24:21.95
other people will be as inspired
00:24:21.98\00:24:23.54
as I was to see the
students singing so beautifully
00:24:23.57\00:24:26.42
and playing and witnessing
00:24:26.45\00:24:27.79
and sharing
testimonies in some of the most
00:24:27.82\00:24:30.96
inspirational
locations on the planet,
00:24:30.99\00:24:33.84
some of them the most relevant
to our history as Christian.
00:24:33.87\00:24:37.27
So this is one of the
most exciting productions
00:24:37.30\00:24:40.93
you'll ever have
the privilege of being
00:24:40.96\00:24:42.93
able to share
with somebody else.
00:24:42.96\00:24:45.08
Thank you very much,
Fountainview Academy,
00:24:45.11\00:24:46.78
for what you doing
with this production.
00:24:46.81\00:24:48.58
Amen.
00:24:48.61\00:24:50.14
You know, I just
want to say here,
00:24:50.17\00:24:54.75
that all
throughout the convention
00:24:54.78\00:24:57.15
we have been able
to highlight ministries
00:24:57.18\00:24:59.30
and how God is
working in individuals in you
00:24:59.33\00:25:02.43
to share the gospel with others
00:25:02.46\00:25:04.95
and it wouldn't be possible
without ministries like 3ABN.
00:25:04.98\00:25:09.67
And so I just want to
on behalf of ASI family
00:25:09.70\00:25:13.31
and those that are watching,
thank you Danny and Jim Gilley,
00:25:13.34\00:25:17.46
and all the team in 3ABN
for doing what you've done
00:25:17.49\00:25:21.53
so that we can be
aware and know how people
00:25:21.56\00:25:24.95
are sharing Christ
in their marketplaces.
00:25:24.98\00:25:27.95
This year will be-- November 84
00:25:27.98\00:25:32.37
is when the Lord impressed
us to build the station
00:25:32.40\00:25:34.35
to reach the world.
00:25:34.38\00:25:35.42
So we are looking it
coming up on 29 years Debbie,
00:25:35.45\00:25:38.13
but from the beginning
the Lord had impressed me
00:25:38.16\00:25:40.88
that this is not for me,
this is not for individuals
00:25:40.91\00:25:43.82
that 3ABN was to be
a channel of blessing
00:25:43.85\00:25:47.12
and its amazing the
communication highways,
00:25:47.15\00:25:49.79
the new ones continue to develop
00:25:49.82\00:25:52.52
but I remember in
Big Sky Montana, 1985,
00:25:52.55\00:25:56.94
I met a young man
named Dan Houghton.
00:25:56.97\00:25:59.67
Dan and Karen
were doing the audio
00:25:59.70\00:26:01.64
and selling cassette tapes
and he and I and their family
00:26:01.67\00:26:05.11
we would talk about
things that could happen
00:26:05.14\00:26:09.09
and to see it over the
years the growth of ASI.
00:26:09.12\00:26:12.52
And I meet
folks around the world
00:26:12.55\00:26:14.06
who say I became the member
of ASI through watching 3ABN.
00:26:14.09\00:26:18.14
But it has been our
goal to work with church
00:26:18.17\00:26:20.40
which is we're not a church
we're non-profit organization
00:26:20.43\00:26:23.49
but to work with the
church, to work with ASI
00:26:23.52\00:26:26.13
and ASI is absolutely
an incredible organization.
00:26:26.16\00:26:29.34
For those of you at home
00:26:29.37\00:26:30.74
we encourage you to support them
00:26:30.77\00:26:32.16
not only
prayerfully but financially.
00:26:32.19\00:26:34.28
Because without
ASI these members,
00:26:34.31\00:26:36.32
these are movers and
shakers in this church
00:26:36.35\00:26:39.82
and you are too at home.
00:26:39.85\00:26:41.65
Say Lord, what
would You have made to do?
00:26:41.68\00:26:43.79
And Debbie, there
is a work to be done.
00:26:43.82\00:26:46.78
God has open enough
highways I've never seen before.
00:26:46.81\00:26:49.72
The other night
I was on a way here
00:26:49.75\00:26:52.44
Tuesday, I was
coming Tuesday night,
00:26:52.47\00:26:54.09
I stopped in Tampa
didn't get here till yesterday.
00:26:54.12\00:26:56.46
I have kidney
stones, I still have one
00:26:56.49\00:26:59.52
that I'm hoping will
passphrase seems very miserable
00:26:59.55\00:27:02.17
but I was in a hotel
room by myself miserable
00:27:02.20\00:27:05.78
and I said ASI is going
on and it occurred to me.
00:27:05.81\00:27:08.99
You know what I did?
00:27:09.02\00:27:10.06
Pulled out my cell phone
00:27:10.09\00:27:11.66
I just head down
loaded a 3ABN app.
00:27:11.69\00:27:13.95
You got a smart
phone just download,
00:27:13.98\00:27:16.42
go to your apps download 3ABN.
00:27:16.45\00:27:19.44
And you know what happens?
00:27:19.47\00:27:20.81
3ABN came on so I sit
there and was able to watch it.
00:27:20.84\00:27:23.50
I said I feel like I'm there.
00:27:23.53\00:27:26.45
So thank you very much Danny,
00:27:26.48\00:27:27.73
we really very much
appreciate all that you're doing
00:27:27.76\00:27:30.91
and all that
everyone is doing individuals
00:27:30.94\00:27:33.40
and ministries and business
to share the love of Jesus.
00:27:33.43\00:27:36.19
Its God work and
as we work together
00:27:36.22\00:27:38.52
join hands together,
00:27:38.55\00:27:40.13
we are gonna be
able to Jesus come back
00:27:40.16\00:27:42.12
very soon on
the clouds of glory.
00:27:42.15\00:27:44.15
Thank you. Thank you, Debbie.
00:27:44.18\00:27:47.07
Now I'd like to introduce to you
00:27:47.10\00:27:48.83
someone who is no stranger,
00:27:48.86\00:27:50.24
you've already heard the
Lord working through him,
00:27:50.27\00:27:53.63
Elder Ted Wilson is
coming to the podium
00:27:53.66\00:27:56.23
and he is going to
introduce someone very special
00:27:56.26\00:27:58.85
that we are gonna hear
from a little bit more later.
00:27:58.88\00:28:01.21
Elder Wilson, share with us
00:28:01.24\00:28:03.18
about this
gentleman that's with you.
00:28:03.21\00:28:05.75
It is marvelous demonstration
00:28:05.78\00:28:07.71
of Christ prayer
of unity in John 17
00:28:07.74\00:28:11.91
to see denominational entities
00:28:11.94\00:28:15.09
and workers
working with lay members,
00:28:15.12\00:28:19.47
with supporting ministries,
with volunteers just like ASI
00:28:19.50\00:28:24.65
and I just want to thank you
on behalf of the world church
00:28:24.68\00:28:28.94
of Seventh-day
Adventist for what ASI does.
00:28:28.97\00:28:32.43
A prime example of this would be
00:28:32.46\00:28:34.68
in a very remote
country far from Florida,
00:28:34.71\00:28:39.41
the country of Mongolia.
00:28:39.44\00:28:41.64
Mongolia is a place
00:28:41.67\00:28:43.28
where the
Seventh-day Adventist church
00:28:43.31\00:28:44.84
is very young only
about 20 years ago.
00:28:44.87\00:28:49.47
And yet it's a
vibrant growing church
00:28:49.50\00:28:52.35
but it needs infrastructure,
00:28:52.38\00:28:54.08
it needs the establishment
of centers of influence in areas
00:28:54.11\00:28:57.80
where we have no
Seventh-day Adventist.
00:28:57.83\00:29:01.23
It's a marvelous thing
00:29:01.26\00:29:02.29
to see the Northern
Asia Pacific division
00:29:02.32\00:29:04.94
led by Pastor Jairyong Lee,
00:29:04.97\00:29:07.63
the Mongolia field
led by Pastor Elbert Kuhn
00:29:07.66\00:29:12.84
and his wife Cleidi
00:29:12.87\00:29:14.97
who is very dynamic part
of the team working with ASI,
00:29:15.00\00:29:21.14
working with
volunteers from Australia,
00:29:21.17\00:29:24.46
people from Ukraine
and different places.
00:29:24.49\00:29:27.22
Now the
individual who is leading out
00:29:27.25\00:29:29.47
in that very important venture
00:29:29.50\00:29:31.81
to establish centers
of influence churches
00:29:31.84\00:29:34.95
and special centers to
reach the people of Mongolia
00:29:34.98\00:29:39.37
is Peter Koolik.
00:29:39.40\00:29:41.05
Peter is a contractor
from Redcliffe, Australia.
00:29:41.08\00:29:46.70
We have the great
privilege of working with Peter
00:29:46.73\00:29:49.10
and his lovely wife Nerida
00:29:49.13\00:29:51.91
in the Euro-Asia
Division in Russia.
00:29:51.94\00:29:55.66
We had a marvelous time
00:29:55.69\00:29:56.75
has Peter lead
in the construction
00:29:56.78\00:30:00.21
of many of the building
at Zaoksky Adventist seminary
00:30:00.24\00:30:04.68
and our division
office in Moscow.
00:30:04.71\00:30:07.51
God has called Peter
and his volunteer associates
00:30:07.54\00:30:12.74
to go to Mongolia and to help
00:30:12.77\00:30:15.59
establish the
work in that country.
00:30:15.62\00:30:18.33
It is absolutely a marvelous
example of working together
00:30:18.36\00:30:23.15
and we praise God for that.
00:30:23.18\00:30:25.08
I know you're gonna be inspired
as Peter shares his story.
00:30:25.11\00:30:29.29
Thank you very much.
00:30:29.32\00:30:30.91
So Peter, catch
us up and tells us
00:30:30.94\00:30:34.06
what have you been
doing over the summer
00:30:34.09\00:30:35.78
you and your wife?
00:30:35.81\00:30:38.97
We have Debbie, we have
just arrived from Mongolia.
00:30:39.00\00:30:41.62
We spent seven months there
00:30:41.65\00:30:43.37
and we'll be returning
back there in few weeks.
00:30:43.40\00:30:45.79
We've actually been involved
00:30:45.82\00:30:46.95
in the building of
church community centers.
00:30:46.98\00:30:50.04
So that's exactly
what you doing in Mongolia?
00:30:50.07\00:30:52.30
Correct, Yes. Okay.
00:30:52.33\00:30:53.87
And then tell us, I
understand that Mongolia
00:30:53.90\00:30:58.00
is not here balmy
vacation resort destination.
00:30:58.03\00:31:02.10
Can you describe for us exactly
what it's like in Mongolia
00:31:02.13\00:31:05.81
and maybe share
little about the project?
00:31:05.84\00:31:08.03
Sure.
00:31:08.06\00:31:09.33
Debbie, I'd like to
invite you and our ASI family
00:31:09.36\00:31:13.85
to picture the same
with me for a few moments.
00:31:13.88\00:31:16.73
Just step into
my shoes reflecting
00:31:16.76\00:31:19.67
on a summer's day in Mongolia.
00:31:19.70\00:31:22.68
We walk down the
town's dusty road,
00:31:22.71\00:31:25.96
people were scary
past carrying water
00:31:25.99\00:31:28.86
from a town spring
which is maybe a mile away.
00:31:28.89\00:31:32.11
And by the way nearly
80 percent of Mongolians
00:31:32.14\00:31:35.30
do not have
access to running water.
00:31:35.33\00:31:38.35
I mean, drag the
sheep down the street
00:31:38.38\00:31:41.25
or may be a goat
to sell for meat.
00:31:41.28\00:31:44.35
You hear it
bleating and your eyes follow
00:31:44.38\00:31:47.28
as he takes it to
nearby field to be slaughtered.
00:31:47.31\00:31:51.61
You know, they will
kill it in such a way
00:31:51.64\00:31:54.30
so they can eat
and use everything.
00:31:54.33\00:31:58.17
You continue walking
00:31:58.20\00:31:59.48
until you reach
the construction side
00:31:59.51\00:32:01.92
and you marvel
that just 20 years ago
00:32:01.95\00:32:05.23
there was no Adventist presence
00:32:05.26\00:32:06.84
whatsoever here in Mongolia.
00:32:06.87\00:32:09.89
Yet today they are
scavenging of church buildings
00:32:09.92\00:32:12.50
and round about
200-- 2,000 members.
00:32:12.53\00:32:16.80
Perhaps the lack
of Adventist influence
00:32:16.83\00:32:19.77
is due to the harsh climate.
00:32:19.80\00:32:21.95
Since the capital of Ulaanbaatar
00:32:21.98\00:32:23.90
is the coldest capital
city in the world dropping--
00:32:23.93\00:32:27.45
the temperature is dropping
down to minus 50 degrees
00:32:27.48\00:32:30.71
in the winter
months making construction
00:32:30.74\00:32:32.92
almost
impossible during that time.
00:32:32.95\00:32:35.78
The buildings that
we're erecting in Mongolia
00:32:35.81\00:32:38.83
are really centers
of influence buildings
00:32:38.86\00:32:41.61
because their
purpose is to engage
00:32:41.64\00:32:44.08
with the local community
00:32:44.11\00:32:45.65
by just sharing God's
love in practical ways
00:32:45.68\00:32:48.97
and also to be
utilized as a church on Sabbath.
00:32:49.00\00:32:53.05
The construction
team is already here.
00:32:53.08\00:32:55.43
This community
group of Ukrainians,
00:32:55.46\00:32:57.44
Mongolians and
Australian volunteers
00:32:57.47\00:32:59.85
and you thank God
for these dedicated men
00:32:59.88\00:33:02.83
who work 10 to 12 hours each day
00:33:02.86\00:33:05.73
only having Sabbaths to rest.
00:33:05.76\00:33:08.69
Most of them sleep
on a-- on a mattress,
00:33:08.72\00:33:10.57
on the floor in one
of the two basement rooms
00:33:10.60\00:33:13.58
that we have rented
00:33:13.61\00:33:14.90
and they live away
from their families
00:33:14.93\00:33:16.85
for the entire building season,
00:33:16.88\00:33:19.49
so that they can
make a difference
00:33:19.52\00:33:21.20
in this Buddhist country
00:33:21.23\00:33:22.26
that is almost untouched
by Christian influence.
00:33:22.29\00:33:27.28
You then see the occult
shaman priest exit his house
00:33:27.31\00:33:32.28
which is right next door
to the construction site.
00:33:32.31\00:33:35.54
The building that you can see
00:33:35.57\00:33:36.61
behind that is
our construction site
00:33:36.64\00:33:39.89
and you can feel
00:33:39.92\00:33:41.31
the spiritual battle
rage over the site today.
00:33:41.34\00:33:45.16
You know, shamanism is
Mongolians first religion
00:33:45.19\00:33:49.24
that involves reaching
other states of consciousness
00:33:49.27\00:33:52.16
in order to interact
with the spirit world.
00:33:52.19\00:33:56.22
Local people they
come to the priest
00:33:56.25\00:33:58.71
for divination and for healing.
00:33:58.74\00:34:01.21
And you realize
it's not just by chance
00:34:01.24\00:34:04.48
that the shaman
priest is right beside
00:34:04.51\00:34:07.63
what will be the
Adventist hub in this town.
00:34:07.66\00:34:12.12
You pray for protection
00:34:12.15\00:34:13.52
and you know
that God's Holy Spirit
00:34:13.55\00:34:15.28
will prevail despite
this obvious conflict,
00:34:15.31\00:34:19.82
spiritual conflict.
00:34:19.85\00:34:22.37
Other challenges
arise during a day
00:34:22.40\00:34:24.94
and you realize why
very few will commit
00:34:24.97\00:34:28.60
to being
missionaries in this place.
00:34:28.63\00:34:31.79
Yet you know what, God is here,
00:34:31.82\00:34:35.74
He is here and He is working.
00:34:35.77\00:34:39.70
You imagine this whole
full of believers in the months
00:34:39.73\00:34:43.55
to come maybe in
the years to come
00:34:43.58\00:34:45.06
and you look out in
the street and you wonder
00:34:45.09\00:34:47.76
how many of the
faces you greet each day
00:34:47.79\00:34:50.54
will eventually
come to know Jesus.
00:34:50.57\00:34:54.22
You praise God
for the 12 new members
00:34:54.25\00:34:56.79
who now make up the local church
00:34:56.82\00:34:58.67
which was nonexistent
here just three months ago
00:34:58.70\00:35:02.07
prior to construction beginning.
00:35:02.10\00:35:05.61
I believe now is a
time thrust up here
00:35:05.64\00:35:09.00
God's work in Mongolia,
this challenging country
00:35:09.03\00:35:12.04
that has some of the harshest
conditions in the world.
00:35:12.07\00:35:15.76
You know Mongolia's economy
00:35:15.79\00:35:17.32
is developing at rapid
pace due to the mining boon.
00:35:17.35\00:35:21.28
Land is inexpensive now
and building materials are
00:35:21.31\00:35:24.95
but its not gonna
be like that forever.
00:35:24.98\00:35:27.49
I believe Mongolia
can be and should be
00:35:27.52\00:35:30.51
a launching pad
for missionaries,
00:35:30.54\00:35:33.11
Mongolian
missionaries to travel freely
00:35:33.14\00:35:35.54
to Northern China
and to Northern Korea
00:35:35.57\00:35:38.18
where they can go
without visas to minister
00:35:38.21\00:35:41.63
in these close
countries like no others can.
00:35:41.66\00:35:45.90
What an
opportunity for God's work
00:35:45.93\00:35:48.04
is spread to these untouched
countries of our world.
00:35:48.07\00:35:53.45
I believe the Lord
has called my wife and I
00:35:53.48\00:35:56.12
for such a time as this.
00:35:56.15\00:35:58.44
In 2006 our team
built a community center
00:35:58.47\00:36:02.38
in the province of
Bulacan in central Mongolia.
00:36:02.41\00:36:06.96
We believe the
Lord spared our lives
00:36:06.99\00:36:09.32
when we were involved
00:36:09.35\00:36:10.58
in a serious road
accident on our departure
00:36:10.61\00:36:13.63
and we believe
that Lord has called us
00:36:13.66\00:36:15.97
from Mongolia again
to continue this work.
00:36:16.00\00:36:20.56
The process is in place,
00:36:20.59\00:36:23.20
we have teams and
volunteers ready and waiting.
00:36:23.23\00:36:27.88
We have strong support
from the church at all levels,
00:36:27.91\00:36:30.32
form mission level,
00:36:30.35\00:36:31.40
division and the
general conference level.
00:36:31.43\00:36:34.02
We know we have
the support of ASI
00:36:34.05\00:36:37.15
and I'd like to thank
you whole heartedly for this
00:36:37.18\00:36:40.32
and for all you're doing
to thrive the God's kingdom
00:36:40.35\00:36:43.67
especially in the
challenging parts of the world
00:36:43.70\00:36:46.51
such as Mongolia.
00:36:46.54\00:36:49.91
Peter, I can
certainly feel the passion
00:36:49.94\00:36:52.56
that you have for Mongolia.
00:36:52.59\00:36:54.69
Why is despite all
of these challenges
00:36:54.72\00:36:57.26
you and your wife are
continuing in this work there?
00:36:57.29\00:37:00.39
Debbie, as on
mention 20 years ago
00:37:00.42\00:37:02.42
there was not one
Adventist in Mongolia
00:37:02.45\00:37:05.33
have a
population of three million.
00:37:05.36\00:37:07.41
Today, we have almost
2,000 Adventist there.
00:37:07.44\00:37:11.62
I understand ASI were involved
in the very first building
00:37:11.65\00:37:15.59
that was built in Mongolia.
00:37:15.62\00:37:17.72
We now an opportunity to
take this to the next level
00:37:17.75\00:37:20.74
and my wife and I have
committed to be involved
00:37:20.77\00:37:23.66
over the next
few years in Mongolia
00:37:23.69\00:37:25.36
and we know the Lord blessed
this initiate as we go forward.
00:37:25.39\00:37:28.51
Thank you so much, Peter.
00:37:28.54\00:37:30.66
We must pray and
support the Mongolia project.
00:37:30.69\00:37:36.30
Our next project our last
00:37:36.33\00:37:37.89
that one we want to
highlight for you this morning
00:37:37.92\00:37:40.36
comes from the
Congo from Keith Mosier
00:37:40.39\00:37:44.04
who is with Congo
Frontline Missions.
00:37:44.07\00:37:46.97
And wow, this
is really something
00:37:47.00\00:37:50.19
all around the
world were kind of feeling
00:37:50.22\00:37:52.47
what God is doing.
00:37:52.50\00:37:54.53
Keith, first tell us exactly
where does your family live
00:37:54.56\00:37:58.27
because you're
not just by yourself
00:37:58.30\00:38:00.70
and why are you there?
00:38:00.73\00:38:02.65
My family and I live
00:38:02.68\00:38:03.74
in a Democratic
Republic of Congo.
00:38:03.77\00:38:05.63
We will show you a
picture upon the screen here.
00:38:05.66\00:38:07.77
We know, we've missed
ASI for the last three years.
00:38:07.80\00:38:10.47
The first time
00:38:10.50\00:38:11.53
my wife and I were here
together on our honeymoon
00:38:11.56\00:38:13.59
it was four years
ago and now you can see
00:38:13.62\00:38:15.74
we have a family
that we arising in Congo.
00:38:15.77\00:38:17.72
Both of my kids have lived
most our lives there in Congo.
00:38:17.75\00:38:21.73
Now you've had some experience
with the one day church.
00:38:21.76\00:38:24.61
Tell us about the blessings
that you've experienced.
00:38:24.64\00:38:27.61
Well, God has been
taking such good care of us.
00:38:27.64\00:38:29.45
We put up about 41
one day churches now
00:38:29.48\00:38:32.41
and we've also put
up other buildings.
00:38:32.44\00:38:34.46
We built our
houses for our campus
00:38:34.49\00:38:36.07
and also our
evangelism training school
00:38:36.10\00:38:38.07
in this challenging
place out of one day churches.
00:38:38.10\00:38:40.07
That's wonderful.
00:38:40.10\00:38:41.36
I also understand
because we know that
00:38:41.39\00:38:43.11
we have one day churches,
00:38:43.14\00:38:44.38
we have one day
schools, one day hospitals
00:38:44.41\00:38:46.73
and that goes on and on folks,
00:38:46.76\00:38:48.87
but tell us some
what's the need is
00:38:48.90\00:38:51.84
or what for schools there?
00:38:51.87\00:38:54.36
Well, there is a big
need for education in Congo.
00:38:54.39\00:38:58.23
Two out of three
people can read in Congo
00:38:58.26\00:39:00.98
and the other
third of the population
00:39:01.01\00:39:02.98
cannot read and write.
00:39:03.01\00:39:04.04
There is a lack of literacy
00:39:04.07\00:39:05.52
a lack of schools and education.
00:39:05.55\00:39:08.96
It's a country of children.
00:39:08.99\00:39:10.87
Half of the population is
under the age 16 years old.
00:39:10.90\00:39:14.46
It's a country that really needs
00:39:14.49\00:39:17.45
good quality education,
00:39:17.48\00:39:18.88
good quality
Adventist education.
00:39:18.91\00:39:20.86
Well, when you talk
about Adventist education
00:39:20.89\00:39:23.23
are the Adventist schools
in the Congo much different?
00:39:23.26\00:39:26.46
Well, we have some
good Adventist schools
00:39:26.49\00:39:29.59
I am really thankful for them.
00:39:29.62\00:39:31.22
It's a challenge in a country
00:39:31.25\00:39:32.60
where there are
exams given on Sabbath
00:39:32.63\00:39:34.28
with the government
and secular schools,
00:39:34.31\00:39:37.15
so its really a blessing
00:39:37.18\00:39:38.36
if you can get
good Adventist education
00:39:38.39\00:39:40.54
and you can just imagine
what its like for mothers.
00:39:40.57\00:39:44.94
DRC was recently
sighted of his being
00:39:44.97\00:39:46.63
the worse place in
the world to be a mother.
00:39:46.66\00:39:49.88
In a place with war
and conflict and fighting
00:39:49.91\00:39:52.52
and pain and disease
these mothers are struggling
00:39:52.55\00:39:55.58
just to keep
food on their tables,
00:39:55.61\00:39:57.41
to keep clothes
in the bags of their
00:39:57.44\00:39:59.42
five to seven
children often times,
00:39:59.45\00:40:01.61
to pay the school fees to
get their kids in a school.
00:40:01.64\00:40:04.90
I remember recently as I
was traveling down to Kirundu
00:40:04.93\00:40:08.09
I visit several
Adventist schools along the way.
00:40:08.12\00:40:09.95
It took me two
days by motorcycle
00:40:09.98\00:40:11.96
to get down to this place
00:40:11.99\00:40:13.66
where the Adventist message
came in early in the 1920's
00:40:13.69\00:40:17.27
to start
sharing the gospel there
00:40:17.30\00:40:19.50
but I past some
of these schools.
00:40:19.53\00:40:20.94
We'll show you
one on a screen here.
00:40:20.97\00:40:22.77
It's a challenging
environment to teach
00:40:22.80\00:40:26.51
as you can imagine
with this mud structure.
00:40:26.54\00:40:28.72
The only things that
don't come out of the jungle
00:40:28.75\00:40:30.89
are the pens and
the pieces of paper
00:40:30.92\00:40:32.54
that they write with
often times on their lab
00:40:32.57\00:40:34.69
sitting there in that school.
00:40:34.72\00:40:36.05
Oh my-- so there
is definitely a need
00:40:36.08\00:40:38.27
and the one day
church structures can fulfill
00:40:38.30\00:40:41.23
that need for the schools.
00:40:41.26\00:40:42.55
Yes, in fact we are so excited
00:40:42.58\00:40:44.75
that we got a
container of one day schools
00:40:44.78\00:40:46.87
to make a new
complex for a primary
00:40:46.90\00:40:48.91
and secondary school
in the area of Kisangani.
00:40:48.94\00:40:51.98
Just this week this
container has been loaded
00:40:52.01\00:40:54.62
and is about ready to ship
00:40:54.65\00:40:55.76
to Congo for us to put these up.
00:40:55.79\00:40:57.47
Praise the Lord.
00:40:57.50\00:40:58.63
Now, I also know that this
doesn't come without sacrifice
00:40:58.66\00:41:03.00
and you shared with me
00:41:03.03\00:41:04.12
the experience of one
of your church planter
00:41:04.15\00:41:08.01
are having a
really terrible experience
00:41:08.04\00:41:10.61
and I'd like you to
share that with our ASI family
00:41:10.64\00:41:12.61
so they have an understanding
00:41:12.64\00:41:14.40
what people are
putting on the line for Jesus.
00:41:14.43\00:41:18.61
Yes, two weeks
ago I was in Congo
00:41:18.64\00:41:20.81
and I went out
to visit Nebenjrobi
00:41:20.84\00:41:22.86
one of our church planters.
00:41:22.89\00:41:24.50
We trained
Nebenjrobi about three years ago
00:41:24.53\00:41:27.67
and moved him with his family
00:41:27.70\00:41:29.62
to the village of
Kabondo to plant a church.
00:41:29.65\00:41:31.93
We have over 60 church
plants that we've started
00:41:31.96\00:41:35.40
and our going
strong, we prayed God.
00:41:35.43\00:41:37.34
Sixty church
plants? That's right.
00:41:37.37\00:41:39.48
And so he is working
at this remote place.
00:41:39.51\00:41:41.55
We built a lot
of one day churches
00:41:41.58\00:41:42.96
as I said over 41 day churches.
00:41:42.99\00:41:44.96
He is at one of the remote place
00:41:44.99\00:41:46.02
where we haven't even
able to get the materials in.
00:41:46.05\00:41:48.45
So it took me 10
hours to get to his village.
00:41:48.48\00:41:50.80
I'll show you a picture
here of crossing a Congo River
00:41:50.83\00:41:53.43
with my motorcycle in
the canoe to get out there.
00:41:53.46\00:41:56.94
And then continuing--
you'll see the next picture
00:41:56.97\00:41:59.30
how we went through water
00:41:59.33\00:42:01.12
almost waist
deep to get out there.
00:42:01.15\00:42:03.06
Two different rivers
where there is no bridges
00:42:03.09\00:42:04.95
and no way to go to across.
00:42:04.98\00:42:06.85
It was really a challenging,
00:42:06.88\00:42:08.16
in fact, I got
there late at night.
00:42:08.19\00:42:09.96
And you got there late at night.
00:42:09.99\00:42:11.09
Now how far is this distance
that you were traveling?
00:42:11.12\00:42:13.70
Its 170 kilometers.
00:42:13.73\00:42:15.28
Which is roughly how many miles?
00:42:15.31\00:42:17.20
Near 100 miles.
00:42:17.23\00:42:18.26
Okay, so 100 miles
that's not too bad,
00:42:18.29\00:42:20.54
but how long did
it take to get there?
00:42:20.57\00:42:22.18
Ten hours. Ten hours.
00:42:22.21\00:42:25.17
It was quite the long
track and we just continued on
00:42:25.20\00:42:27.59
through this various challenges.
00:42:27.62\00:42:29.06
When I got there
I just thought about
00:42:29.09\00:42:31.26
what it was like for his
family traveling out there.
00:42:31.29\00:42:33.14
It took him from all the way
his home village to get there
00:42:33.17\00:42:35.97
about two weeks
traveling on bicycle
00:42:36.00\00:42:37.81
when he first moved there
00:42:37.84\00:42:39.12
with his family three years ago.
00:42:39.15\00:42:41.52
And they've gone
through some serious challenges.
00:42:41.55\00:42:45.17
Since they got there he
arrived with four daughters.
00:42:45.20\00:42:47.87
His wife gave birth
to another little girl
00:42:47.90\00:42:49.81
while they were
there in that village.
00:42:49.84\00:42:52.58
This little girl was
just about a year old
00:42:52.61\00:42:55.29
when the whole family got sick.
00:42:55.32\00:42:57.30
It was last year when
that little girl died.
00:42:57.33\00:43:00.19
The rest of the family
came through the sickness
00:43:00.22\00:43:03.70
with broken hearts
still serving Jesus
00:43:03.73\00:43:06.75
in this tough place.
00:43:06.78\00:43:08.61
Caring on the
message and now this year
00:43:08.64\00:43:10.91
his wife was pregnant again.
00:43:10.94\00:43:13.39
But she was still getting sick,
00:43:13.42\00:43:14.77
sometimes it's really
there is a lot of diseases.
00:43:14.80\00:43:16.61
In fact my family struggled
with tropical diseases.
00:43:16.64\00:43:18.53
Both my daughter and
my wife have been treated
00:43:18.56\00:43:21.52
for so much serious
illnesses just this year
00:43:21.55\00:43:24.24
and all of us gotten various
tropical diseases and things
00:43:24.27\00:43:28.06
but this lady
she was serving Jesus
00:43:28.09\00:43:30.80
she got sick and she gave birth
00:43:30.83\00:43:32.51
to her little baby
boy over a month premature
00:43:32.54\00:43:36.21
and yet the
bleeding didn't stop.
00:43:36.24\00:43:39.11
And a few hours
later the next morning
00:43:39.14\00:43:41.98
she was saying
good bye to her husband.
00:43:42.01\00:43:43.32
She knew she wasn't
going last any longer.
00:43:43.35\00:43:46.82
She said an Nebenjrobi,
00:43:46.85\00:43:51.10
I want you to
take care of our kids.
00:43:51.13\00:43:53.83
I want you to
keep doing God's work.
00:43:53.86\00:43:58.54
So, even on her last breath
00:43:58.57\00:44:01.92
she was thinking
about the work for Jesus.
00:44:01.95\00:44:03.67
I can tell this is touching you,
00:44:03.70\00:44:05.56
it's difficult for
it not to touch you.
00:44:05.59\00:44:07.52
It was a dying mother's request,
00:44:07.55\00:44:09.92
for care for her children
00:44:09.95\00:44:11.71
and the God's
work will go forward
00:44:11.74\00:44:13.06
she would see them
again in the kingdom.
00:44:13.09\00:44:14.71
Amen. And we have a picture of--
00:44:14.74\00:44:17.22
Yes, lets move on
00:44:17.25\00:44:18.67
this is where I first
arrived at the village there.
00:44:18.70\00:44:20.97
He is the man in
the white in the center,
00:44:21.00\00:44:23.01
when we were crying together
00:44:23.04\00:44:24.23
and continuing on the
following picture shows
00:44:24.26\00:44:26.50
the grave on the
left side of his wife
00:44:26.53\00:44:29.00
we took a photo
there and continuing on,
00:44:29.03\00:44:31.14
you know, he is
still loves the Lord Jesus.
00:44:31.17\00:44:33.83
The following picture
shows him working and singing,
00:44:33.86\00:44:36.24
we went sang
there was 175 people
00:44:36.27\00:44:38.67
that came as we loved
him and I preach there
00:44:38.70\00:44:42.03
and we encouraged them
00:44:42.06\00:44:43.34
with the hope of
the resurrection.
00:44:43.37\00:44:45.81
The last
picture I'd like to show
00:44:45.84\00:44:47.28
is this one of
him with his family
00:44:47.31\00:44:49.33
still serving Jesus
with his four daughters
00:44:49.36\00:44:51.65
and a brand new little baby boy.
00:44:51.68\00:44:53.52
Oh, thank you very much Keith,
00:44:53.55\00:44:57.21
for sharing and for
what Congo Frontline Missions
00:44:57.24\00:45:00.67
and by-- plant
church planter are doing
00:45:00.70\00:45:04.72
at great personal expense
00:45:04.75\00:45:07.69
but looking for the blessed hope
00:45:07.72\00:45:10.13
and just
anticipating Jesus return
00:45:10.16\00:45:12.69
that's what they are,
what they are working for.
00:45:12.72\00:45:15.52
Thank you very much.
That's right, God bless you.
00:45:15.55\00:45:17.71
ASI, it is hard
for me to stand here
00:45:23.03\00:45:27.92
after having heard that story,
00:45:27.95\00:45:30.78
to understand how
someone with their family
00:45:30.81\00:45:33.77
of all these
children are going out
00:45:33.80\00:45:36.54
and at great
loosing their little girl
00:45:36.57\00:45:41.03
and then the
husband loosing his wife
00:45:41.06\00:45:44.32
and still working for the Lord.
00:45:44.35\00:45:47.68
We can help, we
have talked all week long
00:45:47.71\00:45:50.34
about being
partners and ministry.
00:45:50.37\00:45:52.86
We can help him in at boundary
00:45:52.89\00:45:54.63
for to continue
the work in the Congo.
00:45:54.66\00:45:56.99
We can help reach thousands,
00:45:57.02\00:45:59.22
millions of people
with training with the DVD.
00:45:59.25\00:46:02.51
We can build
churches and schools
00:46:02.54\00:46:04.32
so we could
educate our children about
00:46:04.35\00:46:06.48
Jesus love and His soon coming.
00:46:06.51\00:46:09.41
We can use the
tools that we are given,
00:46:09.44\00:46:11.91
we can use technology to do
all of these wonderful things
00:46:11.94\00:46:15.95
but it doesn't
happen on its own.
00:46:15.98\00:46:19.12
While God said that He
can raise up the stones
00:46:19.15\00:46:21.66
to preaching to
just share the gospel
00:46:21.69\00:46:24.59
He has given us the
privilege to work with Him.
00:46:24.62\00:46:30.63
If He calls you will you answer?
00:46:30.66\00:46:34.73
I want you to
think prayerfully about
00:46:34.76\00:46:36.90
what the spirit is
impressing upon you today
00:46:36.93\00:46:39.65
to give as your gift,
00:46:39.68\00:46:41.76
as we listen to
John Lomacang sing
00:46:41.79\00:46:44.35
and then I will come back.
00:46:44.38\00:46:46.10
Touch through me, Holy Spirit
00:47:09.23\00:47:15.29
Touch through me
00:47:15.32\00:47:20.77
Let my hands reach out to others
00:47:20.80\00:47:26.99
Touch through me
00:47:27.02\00:47:32.59
There's a lonely
soul somewhere needing
00:47:32.62\00:47:40.30
Just a friend to care
00:47:40.33\00:47:44.60
Touch through me, Holy Spirit

00:47:57.09\00:48:03.33

00:48:03.36\00:48:09.16
I will be my brother's keeper,
00:48:09.19\00:48:15.29
Love through me
00:48:15.32\00:48:21.24
Hearts are bleeding deep inside,
00:48:21.27\00:48:27.18
Love can dry the weeping eye
00:48:27.21\00:48:33.44
Love through me, Holy Spirit
00:48:33.47\00:48:39.98

Flow through me
00:48:52.67\00:48:57.17

00:48:57.20\00:49:03.87
Flow through me
00:49:03.90\00:49:09.38
Like a river in the desert
00:49:09.41\00:49:15.94
Flow through me
00:49:15.97\00:49:22.08
Springing water
pure and strength
00:49:22.11\00:49:27.97
Living water pure and clean
00:49:28.00\00:49:34.08
Flow through me, Holy Spirit
00:49:34.11\00:49:40.62
Flow through me
00:49:40.65\00:49:46.68
My hands will be your hands
00:49:46.71\00:49:54.28
And on reaching out to man
00:49:54.31\00:50:00.00
My lips will not be slothful
00:50:00.03\00:50:05.53
Lord, to speak
00:50:05.56\00:50:12.85
Good Samaritan
00:50:12.88\00:50:18.28
To someone else in need
00:50:18.31\00:50:23.73
Love through me, Holy Spirit
00:50:23.76\00:50:29.72
Touch through me, Holy Spirit
00:50:29.75\00:50:37.40
Love through me
00:50:37.43\00:50:41.37
Holy Spirit
00:50:41.40\00:50:45.65
Love through me
00:50:45.68\00:50:53.64
