MISSIONS" WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:00:21.43\00:00:25.40

ARE SO GLAD THAT YOU HAVE JOINED
00:00:25.40\00:00:28.26
US. TODAY WE ARE GOING TO BE
TALKING ABOUT A VERY SPECIAL
DEPARTMENT HERE AT GOSPEL
00:00:28.26\00:00:32.23
OUTREACH AND IT IS
THE MINISTRY TO THE DEAF.
00:00:32.23\00:00:34.43
I AM VERY INTERESTED TO LEARN
MORE AND I BET YOU ARE AS WELL.
00:00:34.43\00:00:40.46
SO I WANT TO WELCOME JOHN BLAKE
TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" AND
00:00:47.10\00:00:50.83
FRED GRIFFITH. THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR BEING HERE WITH US TODAY.
00:00:50.83\00:00:53.50
SO JOHN TELL US A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT, YOU'RE THE DIRECTOR OF
THE DEPARMENT HERE AT GOSPEL
00:00:53.50\00:00:58.03
OUTREACH FOR DEAF MINISTRY AND
TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW
AND WHY YOU ARE INVOLVED IN
00:00:58.03\00:01:02.90
THIS PARTICULAR MINISTRY
HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:01:02.90\00:01:04.73
WELL THE LORD ALLOWED US TO HAVE
A LITTLE GIRL THAT BECAME DEAF
AT THREE MONTHS WITH
00:01:04.73\00:01:09.26
CHICKENPOX.
00:01:09.26\00:01:10.56
SO GRADUALLY OUR LIVES CHANGED
TO BECOMING PARENTS OF A DEAF
00:01:10.56\00:01:12.73
CHILD. THEN LATER WE TOOK A
LITTLE DEAF BOY TO BE A
COMPANION TO OUR DEAF GIRL AS
00:01:12.73\00:01:18.26
WELL AS OUR TWO HEARING GIRLS.
00:01:18.26\00:01:20.40
AND THEN GRADUALLY OUR LIVES
BEGAN TO EVOLVE INTO WORKING
WITH DEAF ADULTS AS OUR
00:01:20.40\00:01:26.43
CHILDREN BECAME OLDER.
00:01:26.43\00:01:28.80
WE EVENTUALLY WORKED WITH A
CHRISTIAN DEAF CENTER IN
ARKANSAS AN ADVENTIST
00:01:28.80\00:01:32.83
INDEPENDENT MINISTRY FOR THE
DEAF AND THEN WE WENT BACK TO
CANADA AND BEGAN SOME DEAF
00:01:32.83\00:01:38.90
WORK THERE AND THEN THAT WAS
INTERSPERSED SOMEWHAT WITH
PASTORING THE HEARING AGAIN.
00:01:40.86\00:01:46.33
THEN GRADUALLY BACK INTO DEAF
WORK AND WHEN I RETIRED
OFFICIALLY IN 2005, 2006 I
00:01:46.33\00:01:52.40
SAID TO GOSPEL OUTREACH WOULD
YOU CONSIDER HAVING A DEPARTMENT
00:01:55.26\00:01:59.70
FOR THE DEAF AND
LET ME WORK WITH IT.
00:01:59.70\00:02:01.43
THAT'S WHERE I AM.
00:02:01.43\00:02:02.96
WE NOW HAVE THIRTY THREE WORKERS
FOR THE DEAF IN SEVEN COUNTRIES.
00:02:02.96\00:02:07.36
MY ASSOCIATE ALFRED IS
BASICALLY IN CHARGE OF INDIA.
00:02:07.36\00:02:13.26
WELL THIS IS FANTASTIC.
00:02:13.26\00:02:14.46
FRED HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED
WITH THIS PARTICULAR DEPARTMENT?
00:02:14.46\00:02:18.73
THE LORD GAVE ME TWO WONDERFUL
PARENTS AND THEY ARE BOTH DEAF
AND I HAVE TWO SISTERS THAT
00:02:18.73\00:02:24.36
ARE DEAF SO I GREW UP WONDERING
WHAT I SHOULD DO AND HERE AT
WALLA WALLA I MET SOME
00:02:24.36\00:02:30.43
DEAF PEOPLE INTERPRETED FOR
THEM, GAVE BIBLE STUDIES AND
PRETTY SOON I FOUND MYSELF
00:02:30.43\00:02:35.86
BEING LED INTO DEAF MINISTRY.
00:02:35.86\00:02:38.20
WELL FANTASTIC.
00:02:38.20\00:02:39.63
THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU ARE
DOING WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH WITH
00:02:39.63\00:02:42.86
THE MINISTRY SPECIFICALLY.
00:02:42.86\00:02:44.46
WE ARE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT
DEAF MINISTRY IN INDIA SO SHARE
WITH US, BOTH OF YOU
00:02:44.46\00:02:49.03
WERE RECENTLY IN INDIA AND TELL
US A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THE
WORK THERE.. ALFRED,
00:02:49.03\00:02:55.43
WELL WE HAD A WONDERFUL TEAM
WE ALL WENT TOGETHER AS BROTHERS
00:02:55.43\00:03:03.06
AND SISTERS AND AT FIRST I
THOUGHT WE HAVE TOO MANY HERE
BUT THE LORD USED EACH ONE OF US
00:03:03.06\00:03:08.23
IN OUR CIRCUMSTANCES AS WE MAY
TALK ABOUT A LITTLE BIT LATER.
00:03:08.23\00:03:12.53
SO TELL ME ABOUT BEING IN INDIA
AND FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DEAF
00:03:12.53\00:03:19.33
IS IT RATHER
FRUSTRATING FOR THEM?
00:03:19.33\00:03:20.63
ARE THERE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS?
00:03:20.63\00:03:22.50
ARE THEY LOOKED DOWN UPON
BECAUSE THEY CAN'T COMMUNICATE?
00:03:22.50\00:03:26.66
HERE IN THE WESTERN WORLD THERE
ARE SO MANY PROGRAMS FOR PEOPLE
WHO ARE DEAF BUT HOW IS
00:03:26.66\00:03:33.70
IT OVER THERE FOR THEM?
00:03:33.70\00:03:36.53
WELL FOR A CHILD BORN INTO A
FAMILY IT IS VERY DIFFICULT AND
ISOLATING BECAUSE ONLY IN
00:03:36.53\00:03:43.53
ABOUT TWO PER CENT OF ALL INDIAN
DEAF CHILDREN ACTUALLY GET TO GO
00:03:43.53\00:03:48.80
TO SCHOOL. MOST OF THEM ARE SENT
OUT TO THE FARMS AND THEY WORK
AND THEY ONLY LEARN HOME SIGNING
00:03:48.80\00:03:55.43
AND THEY ARE NOT, THEY DON'T
HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF LEARNING
THE READ AND WRITE.
00:03:55.43\00:04:01.03
THERE IS ANOTHER
COMPLICATION PERHAPS IN INDIA.
00:04:01.03\00:04:04.23
I DON'T KNOW HOW REALLY ACCURATE
THE ASSUMPTION IS BUT IN THE
HINDU RELIGION IF YOU
00:04:04.23\00:04:10.26
HAVE A DISABILITY IT MAY
BE BECAUSE OF A PROBLEM IN A
00:04:14.70\00:04:21.50
PREVIOUS LIFE. AND SO DEAF
PEOPLE HAVE AN EXTRA CROSS TO
BEAR SOMETIMES I THINK BECAUSE
00:04:21.50\00:04:28.63
OF THIS. BECAUSE THEY ARE
ALREADY LABELED BECAUSE THEY ARE
SPECIAL FOR MANY REASONS BUT
00:04:28.63\00:04:35.90
THEN THEY ARE LABELED THAT TOO
SO THEY HAVE THAT STIGMA ON THEM
00:04:35.90\00:04:39.90
AS WELL. IN VARIOUS OTHER
COUNTRIES DEAF PEOPLE ARE LOOKED
00:04:39.90\00:04:45.70
DOWN ON. IN NORTH AMERICA IT
USED TO BE THAT RETARDED PEOPLE
WERE KIND OF LOOKED DOWN ON AND
00:04:45.70\00:04:52.03
PUT INTO INSTITUTIONS
MAYBE FROM A CHILD ON.
00:04:52.03\00:04:56.20
NOW, IN NORTH AMERICA WE TEND TO
BE MUCH MORE GRACIOUS TO PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES AND
00:04:56.20\00:05:03.40
SOME OF THESE THINGS HAVE NOT
YET COME IN ALL OTHER COUNTRIES.
00:05:03.40\00:05:07.26
SOMETIMES DEAF PEOPLE ARE LOCKED
IN A ROOM OR KEPT AT HOME AND
DON'T GET TO SEE TOO
00:05:07.26\00:05:13.33
MUCH.
00:05:16.10\00:05:17.73
IT'S NOT THE USUAL CASE I DON'T
THINK BUT THERE ARE SOME
DIFFICULT ISOLATED INSTANCES.
00:05:17.73\00:05:22.36
WELL FOR MANY OF US WHEN WE SEE
THE GOOD LORD COME IT IS GOING
TO BE SUCH A BLESSING
00:05:22.36\00:05:26.20
FOR SO MANY REASONS AND CAN YOU
IMAGINE WHAT IT IS GOING TO BE
LIKE FOR THE PEOPLE TO
00:05:26.20\00:05:30.73
HEAR THE VOICE OF THE
LORD WHO HAVE BEEN DEAF.
00:05:30.73\00:05:34.10
RIGHT.
00:05:34.10\00:05:35.60
SO YOU, GIVE AN IDEA AN ESTIMATE
GUESSTIMATE ABOUT THE NUMBER OF
00:05:35.60\00:05:39.86
DEAF PEOPLE IN INDIA.
00:05:39.86\00:05:41.46
I AM SURE THAT WE CAN'T REALLY;
THEY ARE PROBABLY NOT ABLE TO
COUNT EVERYBODY BUT IS
00:05:41.46\00:05:45.00
THERE AN ESTIMATE ON THE
NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ARE DEAF?
00:05:45.00\00:05:48.93
IT IS ESTIMATED ABOUT 19 MILLION
BUT I THINK A LOT OF THOSE HAVE
00:05:48.93\00:05:54.90
BECOME DEAF LATER IN LIFE.
00:05:54.90\00:05:56.46
SO IT IS PROBABLY CLOSER TO 14
OR 15 MILLION THAT ARE ACTUALLY
TOTALLY DEAF AND USE
00:05:56.46\00:06:03.83
SIGN LANGUAGE.
00:06:03.83\00:06:04.83
O.K.
00:06:04.83\00:06:05.83
SO THAT IS A LOT OF PEOPLE.
00:06:05.83\00:06:07.40
ABSOLUTELY AND WHAT MY
UNDERSTANDING OF INDIA IS ALL
THE DIFFERENT DIALECTS I MEAN
00:06:07.40\00:06:12.53
HOW DO THEY LEARN LIKE A
STANDARD ONE MAIN LANGUAGE OR
00:06:12.53\00:06:18.93
SOMETHING TO SIGN. THERE ARE
SEVENTEEN OFFICIAL LANGUAGES IN
INDIA, IF I'M CORRECT, AMAZING,
00:06:18.93\00:06:23.36
AND THERE ARE A NUMBER AND I
DON'T KNOW THAT WE REALLY KNOW
ACCURATELY HOW MANY DIFFERENT
00:06:23.36\00:06:30.10
SIGN LANGUAGES
THERE ARE IN INDIA.
00:06:30.10\00:06:31.70
WE KNOW OF FOUR THAT ARE
SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT FROM EACH
00:06:31.70\00:06:36.30
OTHER. THERE IS AN ORGANIZATION
THERE THAT IS NOT OF OUR CHURCH
WHO IS MAKING VIDEOS AND THEY
00:06:36.30\00:06:41.30
ARE GOING TO BE DOING IT IN FOUR
DIFFERENT SIGN LANGUAGES FOR
00:06:41.30\00:06:44.46
INDIA. FANTASTIC.
00:06:44.46\00:06:46.03
UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING IN VIDEO FOR THE DEAF
IN INDIA AT THIS POINT.
00:06:46.03\00:06:49.76
NORTH AMERICA
YES, BUT NOT INDIA.
00:06:49.76\00:06:51.70
SURE.
00:06:51.70\00:06:53.16
WELL THIS IS FANTASTIC AND THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING INVOLVED
00:06:53.16\00:06:56.33
WITH THIS AND
BRINGING IT TO OUR ATTENTION.
00:06:56.33\00:06:57.96
WE DO HAVE A VIDEO THAT YOU WANT
TO SHARE WITH US AND SO WHY
DON'T YOU GIVE US A LITTLE
00:06:57.96\00:07:02.13
BACKGROUND ON THIS VIDEO.
00:07:02.13\00:07:03.93
O.K I'LL GIVE YOU RUNNING
COMMENT AS WE WATCH THE VIDEO.
00:07:03.93\00:07:10.23
HERE WE ARE DURING OUR WORKSHOP
FOR OUR APPROXIMATELY FIFTEEN
WORKERS THERE FOR THE
00:07:10.23\00:07:16.40
DEAF.
00:07:16.40\00:07:17.73
HERE THEY ARE SIGN SINGING AND
I THINK BOTH THOSE LADIES ARE
00:07:17.73\00:07:23.06
WORKERS. THIS IS THE DEAF LADY
THAT WENT WITH US MRS. FRANCISCA
TREXLER AND SHE IS DOING A
00:07:23.06\00:07:28.36
DEMO THERE OF HOW
TO WORK WITH PEOPLE.
00:07:28.36\00:07:31.33
HERE THE MAN ON THE RIGHT IS
ACTUALLY ONE OF OUR WORKERS AND
00:07:31.33\00:07:36.73
THEY ARE DOING
AN INTERVIEW OF HIM.
00:07:36.73\00:07:38.13
HERE IS A BAPTISM OF A
DEAF MAN BY DAVID TREXLER.
00:07:38.13\00:07:42.60
THIS IS THE HEAD ON THE RIGHT
THERE OF THE DIVISION, THE
SOUTHERN ASIA DIVISION AND
00:07:42.60\00:07:46.96
THIS IS THE HEAD OF
OUR DEAF WORK IN INDIA.
00:07:46.96\00:07:49.03
THIS IS A CHURCH THAT IS GOING
TO BE FOR THE DEAF ON THE TOP OF
THE HEARING CHURCH.
00:07:49.03\00:07:55.76
THERE IS AN INTERESTING STORY
THERE IF YOU LOOK HERE YOU CAN
SEE THE STAVES THAT ARE
00:07:55.76\00:07:59.36
HOLDING THE ROOF UP
BECAUSE IT HASN'T CURED YET.
00:07:59.36\00:08:02.30
HERE IS ACTUALLY ALFRED AS HE IS
TALKING WITH SOME OF THE DEAF
PEOPLE JUST BEFORE THE
00:08:02.30\00:08:08.36
OPENING OF THIS UPSTAIRS.
00:08:10.76\00:08:12.30
THERE IS THE CONFERENCE
PRESIDENT AND THE MAN SIGNING
FOR THE DEAF THERE IN THE
00:08:12.30\00:08:17.00
MIDDLE IN THE BACK.
00:08:17.00\00:08:18.06
THIS IS THE UNVEILING BY
DR. LARRY EVANS OF THE PLAQUE.
00:08:18.06\00:08:23.30
THEY DIDN'T GET THE CHURCH
FINISHED BUT WE WERE THERE AND
THE ROOF HAD JUST BEEN POURED
00:08:23.30\00:08:29.36
SO THAT'S AS THE
CHURCH IS KIND OF OPEN.
00:08:31.50\00:08:35.86
THEY ASKED ME TO OFFER A PRAYER
ACTUALLY INSIDE AMONG THE STAVES
00:08:35.86\00:08:39.86
HOLDING THE ROOF UP.
00:08:39.86\00:08:41.36
NOW HERE WE HAVE AN INTERESTING
THING THAT THERE ARE THREE
PEOPLE INTERPRETING.
00:08:41.36\00:08:45.40
FRED IS INTERPRETING THE
AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE; THE MAN
IS PUTTING IT INTO THE
00:08:45.40\00:08:49.10
LOCAL VERBAL LANGUAGE
AND INTO THE SIGN LANGUAGE.
00:08:49.10\00:08:51.90
SO THERE IS THREE INTEPRETERS.
00:08:51.90\00:08:52.90
PRAISE THE LORD.
00:08:52.90\00:08:54.56
HERE THEY ARE HAVING A SPECIAL
PRAYER OF DEDICATION FOR THREE
WORKERS WHO WILL BE WORKING
00:08:54.56\00:09:00.33
THERE.
00:09:00.33\00:09:01.33
TWO OF THEM ARE
PAID BY GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:09:01.33\00:09:04.00
HERE THEY ARE EATING, THAT LOOK
LIKE DAL AND CHAPATTI, YOU EAT
00:09:04.00\00:09:07.56
WITH YOUR HANDS. OH, I LIKE IT.
00:09:07.56\00:09:09.10
THIS IS A DEAF SCHOOL THAT WE
VISITED RUN BY ASIAN AID AND
THERE IS A DRUM IN THE
00:09:09.10\00:09:14.56
BACKGROUND HERE WHICH IS QUITE
LOUD AND THEY ARE HERE DOING
SOME CALISTHETICS AND SO ON.
00:09:14.56\00:09:20.93
WE LOVE THAT LITTLE SCHOOL WITH
97 DEAF CHILDREN MOSTLY FROM
00:09:20.93\00:09:28.00
HINDU AND MUSLIM BACKGROUNDS.
00:09:28.00\00:09:29.70
THESE ARE THE YOUNG LADIES AND
THE CAFETERIA ISN'T BIG ENOUGH
FOR THEM TO EAT ALL TOGETHER.
00:09:29.70\00:09:35.83
THIS WAS US EATING OUR MEAL AT
THE DEAF SCHOOL AND THERE ARE
FIVE OF US IN OUR TEAM.
00:09:35.83\00:09:43.00
WE EVENTUALLY ALL GOT THERE.
00:09:43.00\00:09:45.23
HERE THE STUDENTS ARE WORKING
ON GETTING READY FOR SABBATH AND
00:09:45.23\00:09:51.36
CLEANING ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
00:09:51.36\00:09:52.36
THIS IS DAVID TREXLER.
00:09:52.36\00:09:54.06
HE IS DEAF AND HE IS GIVING A
TALK IN AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE
THAT LOOKED LIKE AN AIRPLANE,
00:09:54.06\00:10:00.60
WHICH THEY USE
AT THE SCHOOL THERE.
00:10:00.60\00:10:03.30
THEY USE SOME INDIAN SIGNS
TOO BUT MOSTLY AMERICAN SIGN
00:10:03.30\00:10:07.53
LANGUAGE. THIS IS MRS. TREXLER.
00:10:07.53\00:10:09.00
NOW HERE IF YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY
THERE IS WHAT I WOULD CALL A
00:10:09.00\00:10:15.13
HOLY CACOPHONY BECAUSE
THEY ARE PRAISING THE LORD.
00:10:18.63\00:10:23.13
THIS LITTLE GIRL IS DOING ACTING
OUT OF A SONG AND THEY DID A
NUMBER OF THESE LITTLE
00:10:23.13\00:10:30.73
DRAMATIZED SONGS OR A DRAMA
GIVING A BIBLE STORY OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR THE
00:10:30.73\00:10:36.80
DEAF PEOPLE.
00:10:38.90\00:10:40.13
THIS IS AT THE DEAF SCHOOL.
00:10:40.13\00:10:43.10
HERE THEY ARE OUTSIDE
DOING A DRAMA SABBATH AFTERNOON.
00:10:43.10\00:10:48.10
THEY ARE
ILLUSTRATING LOVE AND THE CROSS.
00:10:48.10\00:10:49.96
I THOUGHT THIS WAS SO CUTE.
00:10:49.96\00:10:53.70
HOW CUTE IS THAT.
00:10:53.70\00:10:56.16
THIS IS THE NATIVITY
SCENE, MARY AND JOSEPH.
00:10:56.16\00:11:01.30
NOW HERE THEY
ARE JUMPING A ROPE.
00:11:01.30\00:11:03.66
HERE THEY ARE AT A BAPTISM OF
THE FIRST YOUNG LADY TO EVER
HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED AS A
00:11:03.66\00:11:09.73
CHRISTIAN FROM THIS SCHOOL
AND FRED HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF
00:11:12.06\00:11:16.56
BAPTIZING HER. OH.
00:11:16.56\00:11:18.16
SHE ATTENDED FOR FOUR YEARS
AFTER LEAVING THE SCHOOL AND
SETTING UP A LITTLE BUSINESS
00:11:18.16\00:11:23.93
FOR TAILORING THAT SHE HAD
LEARNED AT SCHOOL IN THE TOWN
00:11:23.93\00:11:27.93
NEXT DOOR. PRAISE
THE LORD, LOOK AT THAT.
00:11:27.93\00:11:29.20
AT KOLLEGAL.
00:11:29.20\00:11:31.66
SO THAT IS THE END OF THE VIDEO.
00:11:31.66\00:11:34.03
SO IS THIS PRAISE THE LORD!
00:11:34.03\00:11:35.86
PRAISE THE LORD!
00:11:35.86\00:11:37.96
I LIKE THAT.
00:11:37.96\00:11:40.03
WELL HOW INTERESTING AND TO SEE,
I HAVE BEEN IN ASIA WHERE YOU
00:11:40.03\00:11:46.80
HAVE TO TRANSLATE SOMETIMES THE
SOUNDS VERBALLY BUT TO SEE IT
WITH THE SIGN LANGUAGE WITH ONE
00:11:46.80\00:11:52.03
LANGUAGE TO THE
NEXT HOW FANTASTIC!
00:11:52.03\00:11:53.66
HOW FANTASTIC!
00:11:53.66\00:11:55.30
SO TELL ME DO THE CHILDREN LIVE
AT THE SCHOOL OR IS IT A DAY
SCHOOL OR IS IT A BOARDING
00:11:55.30\00:12:00.40
SCHOOL?
00:12:00.40\00:12:01.40
IT IS A BOARDING
DORMITORY SITUATION.
00:12:01.40\00:12:03.20
- BOYS AND GIRLS DORMITORY.
00:12:03.20\00:12:05.36
SOME OF THEM DON'T GET HOME AT
CHRISTMAS AND A FEW OF THEM MAY
EVEN STAY AT THE SCHOOL
00:12:05.36\00:12:11.66
DURING THE SUMMER BECAUSE FOR
SOME REASON IT IS BETTER FOR
THEM AT THE SCHOOL THAN AT
00:12:11.66\00:12:18.16
HOME.
00:12:18.16\00:12:19.16
INTERESTING.
00:12:19.16\00:12:20.16
NINETY SEVEN.
00:12:20.16\00:12:21.16
WOW.
00:12:21.16\00:12:22.16
WELL THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR SHARING THAT.
00:12:22.16\00:12:23.83
WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A BREAK
HERE AND TALK ABOUT THE "ADOPT A
WORKER PROGRAM" AND THEN WE
00:12:23.83\00:12:26.83
WILL COME BACK AND LEARN MORE
ABOUT THE WORK WITH THE DEAF
00:12:26.83\00:12:31.16
MINISTRY IN
INDIA. [VIDEO PLAYING].
00:12:31.16\00:12:32.70
GOSPEL OUTREACH BEGAN A MISSION

00:12:32.70\00:12:36.93
SIMPLE QUESTION. IN A WORLD

EARTHQUAKES, HURRICANES AND
NATURAL CALAMITIES, WHAT IS
00:12:42.56\00:12:48.60

00:12:48.60\00:12:50.23
THE GOSPEL TELLS US IN MATTHEW
24:14 AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE
KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN
00:12:50.23\00:12:55.90
ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS UNTO
ALL NATIONS AND THEN SHALL THE
00:12:55.90\00:13:01.33
END COME. INSPIRED BY THOSE
WORDS, GOSPEL OUTREACH BEGAN
WITH ONE WORKER OVER THE PAST
00:13:03.60\00:13:08.83
TWENTY YEARS HAS GROWN INTO AN
ORGANIZATION WITH 2200 WORKERS
IN 40 PLUS COUNTRIES.
00:13:08.83\00:13:15.03
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS AN
INDEPENDENT SEVENTH DAY
ADVENTIST LAY MINISTRY RUN
00:13:15.03\00:13:18.90
ENTIRELY BY VOLUNTEERS.
00:13:18.90\00:13:21.96
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKS WITH THE
ORGANIZED CHURCH TO SPONSOR
BIBLE WORKERS IN THE
00:13:21.96\00:13:26.23
10/40WINDOW.
00:13:26.23\00:13:28.13
NOW, WHAT EXACLTY
IS THE 10/40 WINDOW?
00:13:28.13\00:13:31.83
THE 10/40 WINDOW IS A REGION OF
THE EASTERN HEMISPHERE LOCATED
00:13:31.83\00:13:36.43
BETWEEN 10 AND 40
DEGREES NORTH OF THE EQUATOR.
00:13:36.43\00:13:37.90
WHAT MAKES THIS REGION SPECIAL?
00:13:37.90\00:13:41.30
NINETY SEVEN PER CENT OF ALL THE
PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WHO HAVE
NEVER HEARD THE NAME OF
00:13:41.30\00:13:45.30
JESUS LIVE HERE.
00:13:45.30\00:13:47.43
NOW HOW EXACTLY DOES GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORK TO REACH THESE
00:13:47.43\00:13:51.40
PEOPLE? WE DO THIS BY WORKING
WITH THE CHURCH AS IT PLACES
TRAINED INDIGENOUS WORKERS IN
00:13:51.40\00:13:57.56
NEW TERRITORIES SENDING OUT
DISCIPLES JUST AS JESUS DID.
00:13:57.56\00:14:00.30
WHEN A BIBLE WORKER SPONSORED BY
GOSPEL OUTRACH ENTERS A NEW
VILLAGE, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT
00:14:00.30\00:14:05.93
IN THE FIRST YEAR AN ADDITIONAL
300 INDIVIDUALS WILL BE BAPTIZED
00:14:05.93\00:14:11.10
AND COMMIT
THEIR LIVES TO CHRIST.
00:14:11.10\00:14:12.66
INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NEVER HEARD
THE AMAZING STORY OF GOD'S LOVE
ARE GETTING TO MEET
00:14:12.66\00:14:18.26
JESUS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
00:14:18.26\00:14:20.26
NOW HOW CAN YOU HELP?
00:14:20.26\00:14:21.73
BIBLE WORKERS RELY ON
SPONSORSHIPS TO SUPPORT THEM AND
THEIR FAMILIES AS THEY
00:14:21.73\00:14:26.36
SHARE THE
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE OF GOD.
00:14:26.36\00:14:30.03
THIS IS WHY GOSPEL OUTREACH IS
INTRODUCING OUR "ADOPT A WORKER
PROGRAM" TOGETHER WITH
00:14:30.03\00:14:35.16
THE CHURCH, WE IDENTIFY NEW
WORKERS IN AREAS THAT NEED TO BE
REACHED AND THAT IS WHY IT
00:14:35.16\00:14:40.00
IS OUR GOAL TO INTRODUCE A
MILLION NEW PEOPLE TO JESUS IN
THE NEXT THREE YEARS.
00:14:40.00\00:14:44.93
ALL THAT IS REMAINING FOR THIS
WORK TO BEGIN IS YOUR FINANCIAL
00:14:44.93\00:14:48.50
HELP. IN RETURN WE WILL KEEP YOU
UPDATED ON THE EXCITING PROGRESS
00:14:48.50\00:14:54.63
OF YOUR WORKER SENDING YOU
STORIES, PICTURES OF THE LIVES
CHANGED BY YOUR DONATIONS.
00:14:54.63\00:14:59.46
THERE ARE THREE WAYS YOU CAN GET
INVOLVED: YOU CAN BE A PRAYER
00:14:59.46\00:15:03.76
PARTNER FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH BY
PRAYING FOR OUR BIBLE WORKERS.
00:15:03.76\00:15:06.66
SECOND, BECOME AN AMBASSADOR FOR
OUR "ADOPT A WORKER PROGRAM" BY
00:15:06.66\00:15:10.43

DIFFERENCE TOO AND FINALLY,

GOSPEL OUTREACH, AND NOW THAT

00:15:20.10\00:15:24.30
WAITING FOR, THE FINAL QUESTION
IS WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
00:15:24.30\00:15:29.76
[VIDEO END].
00:15:29.76\00:15:31.83
WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL GET
EXCITED ABOUT "ADOPT A WORKER
PROGRAM" LIKE WE ARE HERE AT
00:15:31.83\00:15:35.76
GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:15:35.76\00:15:37.03
IT IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY
FOR YOU TO SPONSOR AND ADOPT A
00:15:37.03\00:15:40.13
WORKER. JOHN AND FRED, YOU HAVE
SOME ADOPT A WORKERS WITH THE
DEAF MINISTRY IN INDIA.
00:15:40.13\00:15:43.96
ACTUALLY IT IS NOT INDIA, IT'S
KENYA WE HAVE A WORKER THERE,
00:15:43.96\00:15:51.40
HENRY. WE HAVE A WORKER IN GHANA
AND WE ARE GOING TO BE SHORTLY
STARTING A WORKER IN SOUTH
00:15:51.40\00:15:58.86
SUDAN IN THE CAPITAL JUBA.
00:15:58.86\00:16:01.66
THESE ARE ALL ADOPT A WORKERS.
00:16:01.66\00:16:03.56
WONDERFUL BUT I DO THINK YOU
NEED ONE IN INDIA TOO SO I'LL
ENCOURAGE THE VIEWERS TO HELP
00:16:03.56\00:16:07.30
OUT WITH THAT, DON'T' YOU THINK?
00:16:07.30\00:16:09.13
YES.
00:16:09.13\00:16:10.06
SO TELL ME BRIEFLY
WHAT YOU ARE WEARING, JOHN.
00:16:10.06\00:16:12.66
THIS QUITE THE
-WELL, IT IS QUITE BRIGHT.
00:16:12.66\00:16:15.56
IT IS BEAUTIFUL.
00:16:15.56\00:16:17.43
VERY OFTEN WHEN YOU COME TO A
SITUATION THEY GIVE YOU FLOWERS
AND THE PROBLEM WITH
00:16:17.43\00:16:23.86
FLOWERS IS IF YOU HAVE A WHITE
SHIRT IT TENDS TO STAIN IT.
00:16:23.86\00:16:26.90
SO IT WAS RATHER NICE TO GET
THIS WHICH KEEPS AND I CAN WEAR
IT HERE AND IT WAS A
00:16:26.90\00:16:32.93
WELCOME TO WHERE THE
CHURCH WAS BEING BUILT ACTUALLY.
00:16:32.93\00:16:36.86
I LIKE IT AND I LIKE THE HEARTS.
00:16:36.86\00:16:38.90
IT IS VERY NICE.
00:16:38.90\00:16:40.26
WELL GOOD.
00:16:40.26\00:16:41.26
WELL THANK YOU.
00:16:41.26\00:16:42.73
FRED, YOU HAVE SOME PICTURES
TO SHARE WITH US SO WHY DON'T WE
00:16:42.73\00:16:47.10
LOOK AT THOSE. YES THIS PICTURE
IS OF THE TEAM: FRANCES TREXLER,
DAVID, MYSELF, LARRY EVANS AND
00:16:47.10\00:16:53.16
JOHN BLAKE.
00:16:55.10\00:16:55.96
THE LORD USED EACH
ONE OF US ON THIS TRIP.
00:16:55.96\00:16:59.40
THIS IS DR. WILSON.
00:16:59.40\00:17:02.03
HE IS THE DIVISION DEPARTMENT
MAN WHO HAS COMMITTED HIS LIFE
TO THE WORKERS FOR THE DEAF
00:17:02.03\00:17:08.10
AND WE JUST ARE
SO GRATEFUL TO HIM.
00:17:10.83\00:17:13.00
THIS IS THE UNION MAN NAVAROD
JACOB AND HE TOOK ME TO THE
HOMES OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:17:13.00\00:17:19.06
WORKERS AND BETWEEN THE FOUR OF
US WE WERE ABLE TO INTERVIEW ALL
00:17:26.13\00:17:32.76
OF THESE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS
WHICH WAS A REAL PRIVILEGE FOR
00:17:32.76\00:17:36.53
ME. AT OUR TRAINING SESSION, OF
COURSE OUR PRAYER BANDS ARE A
VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE
00:17:36.53\00:17:41.73
PROGRAM.
00:17:41.73\00:17:43.36
WE HAD A THREE DAY, FOUR DAY
TRAINING PROGRAM FOR ABOUT 20
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS THAT
00:17:43.36\00:17:49.46
ARE DEAF.
00:17:49.46\00:17:51.63
DAVID TREXLER IS BAPTIZING A
GENTLEMAN AT THE ASIAN AID BLIND
SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND AND
00:17:51.63\00:17:57.70
THIS IS OUR GROUP WHEN
WE HAD THE TRAINING PROGRAM.
00:18:00.90\00:18:04.80
AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE ABOUT
20 WORKERS THERE WHICH WAS HELD
AT THE BLIND SCHOOL.
00:18:04.80\00:18:10.86
EARLIER YOU SAW A VIDEO OF THIS
CHURCH AND THE UPPER FLOOR IS
FOR THE DEAF PEOPLE
00:18:13.13\00:18:19.60
WHICH WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR.
00:18:19.60\00:18:21.26
WE ARE IN THE DIVISION THERE
ELDER JOHN AND THE REST OF US
WERE HAVING A DISCUSSION ABOUT
00:18:21.26\00:18:27.43
HOW WE COULD EXPAND THE
WORK FOR THE DEAF IN INDIA.
00:18:31.50\00:18:34.86
WE GREATLY NEED
MORE WORKERS IN THE CITY.
00:18:34.86\00:18:40.40
WE HAVE A LOT OF WORKERS IN
OUTLYING AREAS AND HE WAS VERY
SUPPORTIVE AND I BELIEVE WILL
00:18:40.40\00:18:46.83
BE ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD IN
THE CITIES FROM HIS SUPPORT.
00:18:46.83\00:18:51.10
WHEN WE SAY DIVISION THAT IS THE
DIVISION OFFICES OF THE SEVENTH
00:18:51.10\00:18:56.56
DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN CHURCH
LOCATED IN THAT AREA IN HOSUR
AND THE PLACE WHERE WE ARE
00:18:56.56\00:19:02.50
TALKING ABOUT IS CHENNAI, A
LARGE CITY OF OVER 100,000 DEAF
00:19:02.50\00:19:07.10
PEOPLE. SO WE DESPERATELY NEED
AT LEAST TWO WORKERS TO BEGIN
WITH AND ELDER JOHN, HE SAID I
00:19:07.10\00:19:14.23
AM GOING TO HELP YOU WITH THOSE.
00:19:14.23\00:19:17.73
GREAT.
00:19:17.73\00:19:18.73
THIS IS THE SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.
00:19:18.73\00:19:20.90
IT IS RUN BY ASIAN AID AND IS
PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST
EXCITING TIMES FOR ME TO GO
00:19:20.90\00:19:27.06
BECAUSE SOME YEARS AGO A YOUNG
LADY CAME AND SUGGESTED TO THEM,
WHY DON'T YOU LEARN
00:19:27.06\00:19:33.56
AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE?
00:19:33.56\00:19:35.13
SO WHEN I COME THERE I CAN TALK
TO THE STUDENTS BECAUSE THEY
KNOW A LOT OF AMERICAN
00:19:35.13\00:19:39.46
SIGN LANGUAGE.
00:19:39.46\00:19:41.03
BUT IT IS A PRECIOUS SCHOOL AND
DR. WILSON WOULD LIKE TO SEE
ANOTHER SCHOOL STARTED
00:19:41.03\00:19:47.20
FARTHER NORTH BECAUSE MANY OF
THESE CHILDREN ARE NOT WANTED BY
THEIR PARENTS DUE TO THEIR
00:19:47.20\00:19:53.20
HANDICAP AND THIS IS SUCH A
PRECIOUS OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE
THE GOSPEL WITH THESE DEAF
00:19:53.20\00:19:59.70
CHILDREN.
00:19:59.70\00:20:00.70
OH BUT IT IS NOT
A HANDICAP, FRED.
00:20:00.70\00:20:01.90
NO, NO BUT THAT
IS WHAT THEY CALL IT.
00:20:01.90\00:20:04.03
IT IS ALL TRUE.
00:20:04.03\00:20:05.03
TERMINOLOGY.
00:20:05.03\00:20:06.40
THERE THE DEAF STUDENTS ARE
SITTING ON THE PORCH AND THEY
00:20:06.40\00:20:12.33
LOVE TO SING. IT IS PART OF
THEIR CULTURE AND I WAS SO
IMPRESSED BECAUSE OVER HERE IN
00:20:12.33\00:20:18.43
THE STATES, DEAF PEOPLE SAY WELL
WE ARE DEAF WE DON'T SING AS
MUCH BUT THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO
00:20:18.43\00:20:23.86
AFFECT THEM. GOOD.
00:20:23.86\00:20:24.83
I LIKE IT.
00:20:24.83\00:20:25.83
MAYBE I CAN
INTERJECT SOMETHING HERE.
00:20:25.83\00:20:28.83
IN THE VIDEO I HOPE THEY WERE
ABLE TO HEAR, I CALL IT THE HOLY
CACOPHONY, BECAUSE IT
00:20:28.83\00:20:35.50
SOUNDED TO OUR HEARING EARS
TERRIBLE BUT THEY SOME OF THE
CHILDREN WERE TRYING TO SING
00:20:35.50\00:20:42.16
AND SIGN AT THE SAME TIME BUT OF
COURSE THEY COULDN'T PROPERLY
HEAR THEMSELVES BUT
00:20:42.16\00:20:47.20
GOD HEARD IT.
00:20:47.20\00:20:48.20
ABSOLUTELY.
00:20:48.20\00:20:49.20
THAT'S WHY I
CALLED IT HOLY CACOPHONY.
00:20:49.20\00:20:50.96
EVERY NOTE.
00:20:50.96\00:20:52.03
AT THIS SCHOOL FOR THE
DEAF WE HAD SEVERAL PRESENTORS.
00:20:52.03\00:20:58.03
THE PRINCIPAL SAID WHY JUST GO
TO IT AND GIVE THE CHILDREN ALL
00:21:00.50\00:21:05.26
THAT THEY WANTED. BUT
WE LEARNED A LOT FROM THEM.
00:21:05.26\00:21:07.60
THEIR CHARACTER, THEIR DEVOTION
THEY REPEAT ON SABBATH THE LORDS
00:21:07.60\00:21:13.63
PRAYER, THE
BEATITUDES AND PSALM 23.
00:21:15.93\00:21:19.86
IN SIGN LANGUAGE?
00:21:19.86\00:21:20.86
IN SIGN LANGUAGE, YES.
00:21:20.86\00:21:23.53
THERE IS JOHN BLAKE.
00:21:23.53\00:21:25.33
HE WAS WITH US
THERE THIS LAST TIME.
00:21:25.33\00:21:29.70
OF COURSE, MY HIGHLIGHT WAS
THE PRIVILEGE OF BAPTIZING THIS
00:21:29.70\00:21:34.10
YOUNG LADY. SHE IS 26 I
UNDERSTAND NOW OR 24 OR 26
ANYWAY, SHE HAD BEEN AT THAT
00:21:34.10\00:21:41.76
SCHOOL ALL HER LIFE. THEY
TRAINED HER TO SEW SO WHEN SHE
GRADUATED SHE MOVED INTO A
00:21:41.76\00:21:47.83
NEARBY VILLAGE AND THEY TELL ME
THAT SINCE SHE GRADUATED TILL
THE TIME SHE WAS BAPTIZED SHE
00:21:49.86\00:21:56.26
HAD NEVER MISSED ONE
SABBATH ALL THOSE YEARS.
00:21:56.26\00:21:57.66
SO WE WERE JUST
THRILLED TO SEE THE FRUIT.
00:21:57.66\00:22:00.76
SOMETHING THAT WAS STARTED A
LONG TIME AGO AND I BELIEVE THAT
GOD WILL DO THE SAME FOR
00:22:00.76\00:22:06.83
US.
00:22:10.03\00:22:11.10
ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:11.10\00:22:12.70
THE SEED THAT IS BEING SOWN IN
THESE YOUNG PEOPLES LIVES
BECAUSE IT MAY BE DIFFICULT
00:22:12.70\00:22:19.13
FOR THEM TO OUTWARDLY CHANGE TO
BECOME A CHRISTIAN WHILE THEY
ARE AT THE SCHOOL SEEDS
00:22:19.13\00:22:26.20
ARE BEING SOWN IN
THEIR PRECIOUS HEARTS.
00:22:26.20\00:22:28.90
OH ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:28.90\00:22:30.56
IN FACT THE ATMOSPHERE AT THE
SCHOOL THERE WAS SO LOVELY I
MADE THE STATEMENT TO SOMEBODY
00:22:30.56\00:22:34.83
THAT IT WAS A LITTLE BIT
LIKE HEAVEN AT THE SCHOOL.
00:22:34.83\00:22:38.06
THE STUDENTS WERE SUCH A LOVELY
SPIRIT AND SO COOPERATIVE AND SO
00:22:38.06\00:22:45.83
FRIENDLY WE FELL
IN LOVE WITH THEM.
00:22:45.83\00:22:47.86
ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:47.86\00:22:48.83
OH ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:48.83\00:22:50.43
SO TELL ME DO THESE STUDENTS AND
THE DEAF PEOPLE THAT YOU
ENCOUNTER ON YOUR TRIPS OVER
00:22:50.43\00:22:56.46
THERE, DO THEY UNDERSTAND THE
HOPE THAT THEY HAVE IN JESUS
CHRIST THAT THEY WILL HEALED
00:22:56.46\00:23:02.06
OF THIS TEMPORARY
SITUATION OF THEM.
00:23:02.06\00:23:05.13
DO THEY UNDERSTAND THAT?
00:23:05.13\00:23:06.56
IS THAT SOMETHING THAT YOU HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO SHARE WITH THEM?
00:23:06.56\00:23:10.46
THEY LOOK FORWARD TO IT SO MUCH.
00:23:10.46\00:23:12.56
ONE STUDENT SAID OH I WANT TO
SIT ON THE FRONT ROW OF HEAVEN'S
00:23:12.56\00:23:20.26
CHOIR TO SING. I LIKE IT.
00:23:20.26\00:23:22.06
BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU READ IN THE
BIBLE OF SO MANY OF THE HEALINGS
00:23:22.06\00:23:27.50
AND FOR PEOPLE WHO OUTWARDLY
MIGHT NOT HAVE SOMETHING
PHYSICAL THAT IS A LITTLE
00:23:27.50\00:23:32.16
DIFFERENT BUT SOMEONE WHO DOES
HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT YOU
KNOW THE LUKE 6'S OF THE BIBLE
00:23:32.16\00:23:38.03
WHERE JESUS HEALED, THAT IS SO
POWERFUL AND THERE IS SUCH HOPE
AND TO BE ABLE TO SHARE THAT
00:23:38.03\00:23:44.30
WITH OTHER PEOPLE
I THINK IS JUST HUGE.
00:23:44.30\00:23:46.13
IN THE MEANTIME, THE CHALLENGE
IS THAT THERE ARE SOMEWHERE
BETWEEN PROBABLY ONE AND TWO
00:23:46.13\00:23:51.86
HUNDRED MILLION DEAF PEOPLE
AROUND THE WORLD AND AS A CHURCH
WE HAVE DONE VERY, VERY
00:23:51.86\00:23:57.50
LITTLE FOR THE DEAF.
00:23:57.50\00:23:59.13
USUALLY THE DEAF HAVE
FALLEN BETWEEN THE CRACKS.
00:23:59.13\00:24:02.20
IT'S NOT THAT OUR LEADERS ARE
HARD HEARTED IT'S THAT THEY
DON'T UNDERSTAND THE SPECIAL
00:24:04.20\00:24:10.96
NEEDS OF DEAF PEOPLE AND IF YOU
DON'T HAVE A WORK FOR THE DEAF
IN THE CHURCH, THEY
00:24:10.96\00:24:16.23
PROBABLY WON'T COME AND IF THERE
ARE NO DEAF IN THE CHURCH, YES,
00:24:16.23\00:24:23.33
THE CHURCH DOESN'T FEEL
AN OBLIGATION TO PREPARE.
00:24:23.33\00:24:26.30
SO IT IS KIND OF A NEVER ENDING
CIRCLE AND THE RESULT IS VERY
00:24:26.30\00:24:31.96
SELDOM DO WE HAVE
ANYTHING FOR DEAF PEOPLE.
00:24:31.96\00:24:33.10
SURE.
00:24:33.10\00:24:34.46
SO FRED THAT IS SOMETHING
THAT OBVIOUSLY WE ALL NEED TO BE
00:24:34.46\00:24:38.20
WORKING ON. FRED, WHAT IS IT
LIKE FOR YOU TO BE A WESTERNER
AND TO BE ABLE THEN TO
00:24:38.20\00:24:44.66
COMMUNICATE WITH SOME OF
THE STUDENTS IN SIGN LANGUAGE.
00:24:44.66\00:24:47.56
ARE THEY SURPRISED?
00:24:47.56\00:24:49.26
WELL THEY ASKED ME TO
STAY ANOTHER WHOLE YEAR.
00:24:49.26\00:24:51.83
I SAID, OH I HAVE A
FAMILY BUT WISH I COULD.
00:24:51.83\00:24:55.36
IT IS A SPECIAL SENSE OF
BONDNESS THAT WE HAVE BETWEEN
THE TWO OF US EVEN THOUGH I
00:24:55.36\00:25:02.03
STILL HAVE TO HAVE AN
INTERPRETER FOR MOST OF THEM.
00:25:02.03\00:25:05.10
SURE BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU
ARE KIND OF ON THE SAME PLAYING
00:25:05.10\00:25:10.90
FIELD THAT THEY UNDERSTAND YOU.
00:25:10.90\00:25:12.46
SO WHAT IS IYOUR BIGGEST NEED
RIGHT NOW FOR THE DEAF MINISTRY
WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH?
00:25:12.46\00:25:18.26
WELL, WE ARE TRYING TO
STRENGTHEN THE WORK IN INDIA.
00:25:18.26\00:25:20.76
WE HAVE RUN INTO SOME
COMPLICATIONS THERE THAT WE WERE
TRYING TO WORK WITH BUT
00:25:20.76\00:25:26.10
AS I LOOK AT THE
WHOLE WORLD FIELD.
00:25:26.10\00:25:28.80
WE NEED MORE FUNDING FOR DEAF
WORK AND WE NEED THE CHURCH AS A
WHOLE TO REALIZE THAT HERE
00:25:28.80\00:25:36.26
IS AGROUP THAT WE HAVE USUALLY
MISSED AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO
PLACE A GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:25:36.26\00:25:43.50
WORKER BUT THE CHURCH NEEDS
TO TAKE HOLD AND ASK WHAT CAN WE
00:25:43.50\00:25:51.43
DO? WE NEED MORE WORKERS
DESPERATELY BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE
ABOUT 33 AROUND THE WORLD
00:25:51.43\00:25:56.40
AND THE CHURCH HAS EMPLOYED
VERY, VERY FEW OF THE WORKERS
FOR THE DEAF AS PASTORS.
00:25:56.40\00:26:02.16

I NEED TO SPREAD
THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME.
00:27:14.86\00:27:18.90
WHERE IS THE
10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY?
00:27:18.90\00:27:22.23
THOSE PEOPLE ARE TOO FAR AWAY.
00:27:22.23\00:27:25.40
SOMEONE ELSE CAN
TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS.
00:27:25.40\00:27:27.16
MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV?
00:27:27.16\00:27:30.23
NEARLY THREE
BILLION PEOPLE TO REACH,.
00:27:30.23\00:27:33.30
MY HEAD HURTS.
00:27:33.30\00:27:34.83
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO.
00:27:34.83\00:27:37.40
I GIVE UP.
00:27:37.40\00:27:38.93
WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING?
00:27:38.93\00:27:41.63
I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:27:41.63\00:27:43.70
ACTUALLY YOU CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE AND JESUS ASKED YOU
TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:43.70\00:27:51.16
WHERE?
00:27:51.16\00:27:52.16
