[OPENING MUSIC].
00:00:00.80\00:00:16.30
WELCOME TO "ADVENTURES IN
MISSIONS" WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:00:16.30\00:00:18.86
I'M JULIE SANDERS-KEYMER, AND WE
ARE GLAD THAT YOU ARE JOINING US
00:00:18.86\00:00:22.53
TODAY. SO WHEN YOU PAY YOUR
TITHE AND YOUR OFFERINGS, HOW DO
00:00:22.53\00:00:26.00
YOU DO IT? DO YOU BRING YOUR
CHICKENS; DO YOU BRING YOUR CROP
00:00:26.00\00:00:29.63
OF CARROTS? WHAT DO YOU DO?
00:00:29.63\00:00:31.23
WELL, WE ARE GOING TO LEARN WHAT
THEY DO IN WEST AFRICA, AND I
THINK YOU ARE GOING TO
00:00:31.23\00:00:34.23
BE EXCITED TO LEARN.
00:00:34.23\00:00:40.53
SO WELCOME TO KAREN
AND GLEN WINTERMEYER.
00:00:40.53\00:00:41.60
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE
ON "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS".
00:00:41.60\00:00:42.53
THANK YOU.
00:00:42.53\00:00:44.00
SO YOU FOLKS ARE THE DIRECTORS
FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH IN WHAT AREA
00:00:44.00\00:00:46.50
OF THE WORLD? WE'RE IN WEST
AFRICA, IN THE WESTERN HALF OF
WEST AFRICA: BURKINA FASO,
00:00:46.50\00:00:53.23
GUINEA, GAMBIA, LIBERIA, MALI.
00:00:53.23\00:00:55.13
WOW, THAT IS A HUGE
TERRITORY RIGHT, KAREN?
00:00:55.13\00:00:57.90
YES.
00:00:57.90\00:00:58.86
LOTS OF, LOTS OF, I
CAN JUST PICTURE THE MILES.
00:00:58.86\00:01:02.33
SO TELL ME HOW MANY GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKERS THAT YOU HAVE
00:01:02.33\00:01:05.76
IN YOUR REGION. FIFTY FIVE THAT
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
INDIRECTLY SUPERVISING.
00:01:05.76\00:01:09.86
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR TRAINING
AND FOR MAKING SURE THAT THEY
GET THEIR MONEY THAT
00:01:09.86\00:01:15.13
WE SEND TO THEM.
00:01:15.13\00:01:16.80
AND THAT COMES FROM THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH DONORS WHO GIVE AND
THEN IT IS TRANSFERRED TO THEM
00:01:16.80\00:01:22.06
SO THEY CAN SHARE THE
LOVE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
00:01:22.06\00:01:24.33
ABSOLUTELY.
00:01:24.33\00:01:25.76
SO WE WERE TALKING A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT TITHES AND OFFERINGS, AND
00:01:25.76\00:01:31.63
HERE IN OUR WESTERN CULTURE WE
CAN DONATE TO OUR CHURCHES FOR
OFFERINGS AND PAY OUR TITHE
00:01:31.63\00:01:36.86
THROUGH CREDIT CARDS THINGS LIKE
THAT, BUT I CAN ONLY IMAGINE
LIVING IN THIS AREA OF THE WORLD
00:01:36.86\00:01:41.50
THAT IT IS NOT
SO EASY, CONVENIENT?
00:01:41.50\00:01:45.26
TELL US MORE.
00:01:45.26\00:01:46.26
IT IS DIFFERENT.
00:01:46.26\00:01:47.26
THERE YOU GO.
00:01:47.26\00:01:48.36
IT'S DIFFERENT.
00:01:48.36\00:01:49.93
YOU KNOW I HAVE FOR A LONG TIME
HAVE SAID THESE PEOPLE NEED TO
GIVE FROM WHAT THEY
00:01:49.93\00:01:56.13
HAVE.
00:01:56.13\00:01:57.20
THEY DON'T
MAYBE EVEN HAVE MONEY.
00:01:57.20\00:01:59.90
THEY DON'T KNOW MONEY.
00:01:59.90\00:02:01.36
IN ONE PLACE WHERE WE HAVE
BEEN, THEY USE SHELLS AS THEIR
00:02:01.36\00:02:05.30
MONETARY THING. BECAUSE THEY ARE
CLOSE THE SEA, AND THEY CAN GET
00:02:05.30\00:02:10.26
SHELLS? TELL US MORE.
00:02:10.26\00:02:12.56
THEY ARE A CASHLESS SOCIETY.
00:02:12.56\00:02:16.50
AND THEY USE SHELLS.
00:02:16.50\00:02:17.50
YES, COWRY SHELLS.
00:02:17.50\00:02:19.10
THEY STILL OBVIOUSLY WANT TO
GIVE TO THE LORD'S WORK EVEN
THOUGH THEY DON'T HAVE MUCH.
00:02:19.10\00:02:25.26
YES, GO AHEAD KAREN.
00:02:27.26\00:02:28.93
EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH, IF
YOU LOVE THE LORD YOU WANT TO
OBEY HIM, AND WHEN HE SAYS,
00:02:28.93\00:02:34.53
"BRING YOUR TITHE," YOU WANT
TO DO THAT BECAUSE YOU LOVE HIM.
00:02:34.53\00:02:38.83
WHEN I WAS THERE TWO YEARS AGO,
I RECOGNIZED THAT STEWARDSHIP
00:02:38.83\00:02:44.76
NEEDED TO BE IMPROVED.
00:02:44.76\00:02:46.40
PEOPLE NEED TO HAVE THE JOY OF
GIVING AND, OF COURSE, THE
CLASSIC TEXT THAT WE USE IS
00:02:46.40\00:02:53.66
FOUND IN MALACHI 3, AND SO I
SHARED THAT THIS TIME WHEN I WAS
THERE WITH THE MISSION
00:02:53.66\00:03:01.06
WORKERS, WITH THE
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS.
00:03:01.06\00:03:03.93
WE ACTUALLY DID A BIBLE STUDY
BASED UPON THAT PASSAGE, AND IT
WAS INCREDIBLE WATCHING THE
00:03:03.93\00:03:10.00
PEOPLE RESPOND TO
THE JOY OF GIVING.
00:03:12.16\00:03:16.80
WE HAD EVEN SOME OF THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKERS SAY, " YOU
KNOW, I UNDERSTAND TITHING
00:03:16.80\00:03:23.43
MUCH MORE IMPORTANTLY NOW, MUCH
MORE CORRECTLY, THE WAY THAT GOD
00:03:23.43\00:03:29.16
WANTS IT. I AM GOING TO START
BEING EVEN MORE FAITHFUL IN MY
00:03:29.16\00:03:34.30
GIVING." WOW,
THAT IS IMPRESSIVE.
00:03:34.30\00:03:36.00
HUMBLING TOO!
00:03:36.00\00:03:37.30
YES.
00:03:37.30\00:03:38.76
BECAUSE THESE ARE PEOPLE
OBVIOUSLY WHO DON'T HAVE VERY
MUCH BUT THEY ARE STILL
00:03:38.76\00:03:42.83
WANTING TO GIVE.
00:03:42.83\00:03:44.26
WELL, AND KAREN, LIKE THE
WOMAN WITH HER TWO MITES SHE WAS
00:03:44.26\00:03:47.16
WANTING TO GIVE. YES, THIS IS
ACTUALLY WHAT ONE OF THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKERS SAID: HE SAID,
00:03:47.16\00:03:50.96
"YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES WE ROB GOD
BECAUSE THE AMOUNT IS VERY SMAL,
AND I THINK THAT GIVING SUCH A
00:03:50.96\00:03:57.43
SMALL AMOUNT IS JUST ONLY VERY
SMALL AMOUNT TO GOD AND I TELL
MYSELF I'LL PAY IT BACK WHEN I
00:03:57.43\00:04:02.90
HAVE A BIGGER AMOUNT OF MONEY.
00:04:02.90\00:04:05.40
OR I THINK WHEN I HAVE PROBLEMS,
HOW CAN I GIVE THAT TO GOD?
00:04:05.40\00:04:09.60
I'M NEEDING THE MONEY.
00:04:09.60\00:04:12.53
THE DEVIL IS SAYING THIS TO ME,
HE SAYS: "YOU CAN USE THE SMALL
00:04:12.53\00:04:18.03
AMOUNT. NEXT TIME YOU
PAY WHEN YOU GET MORE MONEY.
00:04:18.03\00:04:21.60
SO I NOW REALIZE I
WANT TO STOP THAT."
00:04:21.60\00:04:26.73
THAT'S HIS OWN WORDS.
00:04:26.73\00:04:27.73
WOW, PRAISE THE LORD.
00:04:27.73\00:04:28.73
BUT ISN'T THAT TRUE THOUGH?
00:04:28.73\00:04:30.40
WE THINK, OH WE CAN'T DO THIS
BECAUSE IT IS NOT ENOUGH, OR WE
THINK WELL, WHEN I AM MORE
00:04:30.40\00:04:36.10
PREPARED THEN I'LL DO THIS, AND
THEN I'LL MAKE SURE TO PAY THIS
BACK, AND WE KIND OF
00:04:36.10\00:04:39.56
JUSTIFY IT IN OUR MIND.
00:04:39.56\00:04:42.03
BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT THE
LORD IS CALLING US TO DO IS IT?
00:04:42.03\00:04:44.16
NO.
00:04:44.16\00:04:45.06
WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF
STORIES TO SHARE HERE.
00:04:45.06\00:04:47.70
HERE IS A PICTURE.
00:04:47.70\00:04:48.86
LET'S GO.
00:04:48.86\00:04:50.43
HERE WE ARE HEADING OUT ON
INTERSTATE 5 OR 84 OR WHATEVER
YOU MIGHT WANT TO CALL IT,
00:04:50.43\00:04:56.03
DUSTY, DIRTY, LITERALLY A
WHITEOUT FOLLOWING THESE CARS OR
00:04:56.03\00:05:02.16
MEETING THEM. PRETTY INCREDIBLE.
00:05:04.16\00:05:05.73
BUT HERE IS A CHURCH WAY
OUT IN THE BUSH OF BURKINA FASO.
00:05:05.73\00:05:11.86
THIS IS A CHURCH BUILT BY THESE
PEOPLE; THIS IS THE CHURCH
FAMILY THAT WAS THERE
00:05:11.86\00:05:19.40
TO MEET US ON
THAT PARTICULAR DAY.
00:05:19.40\00:05:22.20
IT WAS NOT A SABBATH BUT THEY
WERE THERE NEVERTHELES, AND THEY
HAD SOMETHING THEY WANTED
00:05:22.20\00:05:29.20
TO SHOW US.
00:05:29.20\00:05:30.20
I LIKE THE GREEN SHUTTERS.
00:05:30.20\00:05:31.30
TAKE A LOOK, THIS
IS THEIR TITHE JULIE.
00:05:31.30\00:05:34.03
OH WOW!
00:05:34.03\00:05:35.06
THEY ARE SITTING ON
THEIR TITHE IN SIDE THE CHURCH.
00:05:35.06\00:05:36.93
PRAISE THE
LORD, SO WHAT IS THIS?
00:05:36.93\00:05:39.20
WHAT IS IN THE BAGS?
00:05:39.20\00:05:41.03
THERE IS CORN IN THE BAGS, AND
SORGHUM, AND SOME PLACES THEY
HAVE RICE, SO THEY BRING THE
00:05:41.03\00:05:48.66
RICE.
00:05:48.66\00:05:49.66
WE WILL ACTUALLY SHOW YOU.
00:05:49.66\00:05:50.56
I'VE GOT A PICTURE
OF WHAT'S IN THOSE BAGS.
00:05:50.56\00:05:52.20
HERE IS, ACTUALLY, THE GUY
DRESSED IN BLUE HAPPENS TO BE
THE MISSION PRESIDENT, AND HE
00:05:52.20\00:05:56.66
WAS SO PROUD OF HIS WORKERS OUT
THERE HE JUST WANTED US TO SEE
AND ENJOY, AND I WAS
00:05:56.66\00:06:01.83
REALLY AMAZED.
00:06:01.83\00:06:03.33
I MEAN HERE YOU OPEN UP THE
DOORS OF THE CHURCH AND HERE IS
00:06:03.33\00:06:07.23
ALL OF THIS
TITHE. THE TITHE CHURCH.
00:06:07.23\00:06:08.53
THE TITHE CHURCH, THE TITHE
BARN AS YOU CALLED IT A LITTLE
00:06:08.53\00:06:11.53
EARLIER. I THOUGHT THAT WAS
REALLY INTERESTING BUT HERE ARE
00:06:11.53\00:06:14.50
THE SACKS. THIS SACK WAS BROUGHT
IN BY MASAL, AND HERE IS
ACTUALLY A CLOSE UP PICTURE
00:06:14.50\00:06:19.06
WRITTEN ON THE SACK SO EVERYBODY
KNOWS WHOSE TITHE IS WHOSE.
00:06:19.06\00:06:21.46
HERE IS WHAT WAS IN THAT SACK.
00:06:21.46\00:06:23.36
I TREASURE THIS PICTURE.
00:06:23.36\00:06:24.43
IT IS SORGHUM.
00:06:24.43\00:06:25.46
SO THEY BRING THEM IN AND
THEN WHAT DO THEY DO THEN?
00:06:25.46\00:06:28.46
DO THEY TAKE IT TO MARKET THEN?
00:06:28.46\00:06:30.36
THEY HOLD IT UNTIL
THE MARKET IS HIGH.
00:06:30.36\00:06:32.50
THE CHURCH HAS A COMMITTEE ALONG
WITH THE TREASURER AND THEY ARE
THE ONES THAT SELL IT
00:06:32.50\00:06:38.56
WHEN THE PRICE GOES AS HIGH AS
THEY THINK IT WILL, SO THEY GET
A GOOD PRICE, THE BEST
00:06:41.53\00:06:46.26
PRICE THEY CAN FOR THE LORD.
00:06:46.26\00:06:50.33
PRETTY AMAZING.
00:06:50.33\00:06:55.06
THEN THEY RECORD ON THE WALL
THEIR TITHES AND OFFERINGS, AND
THIS IS THEIR CHART.
00:06:55.06\00:07:01.80
THIS LITTLE CHURCH HAS THE THIRD
HIGHEST TITHE OUT OF THIS WHOLE
00:07:01.80\00:07:07.86
COUNTRY, AND IT
IS A BIG COUNTRY.
00:07:21.33\00:07:23.13
THESE ARE "IN KIND"
CONTRIBUTIONS AGAIN JULIE; IT IS
BACK TO THE TWO MITES.
00:07:23.13\00:07:27.03
YES.
00:07:27.03\00:07:28.70
I URGED UPON THEM THE STORY, AND
WE ACTUALLY USED THE STORY OF
THE WIDOW AND HER TWO MITES
00:07:28.70\00:07:34.10
IN OUR TEACHING.
00:07:36.76\00:07:38.40
EVERYBODY CAN GIVE TWO MITES,
AND WE ACTUALLY DETERMINED WHAT
TWO MITES WOULD BE AS WE
00:07:38.40\00:07:45.20
WERE THERE
DIALOGING WITH THE WORKERS.
00:07:45.20\00:07:47.63
OH, SO IN THEIR
CULTURE WHAT IT WOULD BE?
00:07:47.63\00:07:50.16
O.K.
00:07:50.16\00:07:51.16
IN THEIR CULTURE
AND IN THEIR MONEY.
00:07:51.16\00:07:52.86
HOW DID THAT COME UP?
00:07:52.86\00:07:54.56
WELL THERE THEY USE SIFA WHICH
IS THEIR FRENCH MONEY, FRENCH
AFRICAN MONEY, AND WE DECIDED-
00:07:54.56\00:08:01.43
I THINK THEY FIGURED OUT
THAT 50 FRANCS WOULD BE A MITE.
00:08:01.43\00:08:05.53
OH, O.K.
00:08:05.53\00:08:06.53
THAT'S ABOUT TEN CENTS.
00:08:06.53\00:08:07.66
O.K.
00:08:07.66\00:08:08.66
IT'S NOT VERY MUCH MONEY.
00:08:08.66\00:08:10.13
NO, BUT FOR THEM THAT IS
PROBABLY A LOT, AND SO FOR THEM
TO FIGURE THAT OUT IN
00:08:10.13\00:08:14.40
THEIR MIND AND THEIR CURRENCY
AND ALL OF THAT, HOW FANTASTIC.
00:08:14.40\00:08:17.96
BUT IF EVERYBODY GAVE TWO MITES
AND THEN WE DID THE MATH, YOU
KNOW, AND WE CARRIED
00:08:17.96\00:08:23.10
IT OUT AND DID THE EXTENSIONS ON
IT, AND THEY BEGAN TO SEE THE
VALUE OF EVERYBODY GIVING.
00:08:23.10\00:08:31.06
SURE, AND IT IS A
JOINT EFFORT OBVIOUSLY.
00:08:31.06\00:08:34.50
YOU CAN SEE THEM AS THEY ARE
SITTING ON THE BAGS OF SORGHUM
THAT THEY ARE PROUD OF- WHAT
00:08:34.50\00:08:39.53
THEY ARE GIVING TO THE LORD.
00:08:39.53\00:08:40.53
VERY!
00:08:40.53\00:08:41.53
YES, AND WE SHOULD ALL DO THAT.
00:08:41.53\00:08:42.73
THEY ARE VERY
HAPPY TO BE GIVING.
00:08:42.73\00:08:44.63
ISN'T THAT GREAT!
00:08:44.63\00:08:45.63
DO YOU HAVE MORE PICTURES GLEN?
00:08:45.63\00:08:47.43
OH YES, YOU BET.
00:08:47.43\00:08:48.66
THIS HERE IS A
HOME MADE MARIMBA.
00:08:48.66\00:08:50.93
NOTICE THE GOURDS UNDERNEATH.
00:08:50.93\00:08:53.90
YES!
00:08:53.90\00:08:56.76
I WAS GOING TO SAY ARE THOSE
COCONUTS BUT THEY ARE GOURDS.
00:08:56.76\00:08:59.03
THEY ARE GOURDS!
00:08:59.03\00:09:00.63
THEY ARE RESONATERS LIKE A
MUFFLER ON A CAR; YOU KNOW, THE
BIGGER, THE DEEPER THE
00:09:00.63\00:09:05.13
BOOM.
00:09:05.13\00:09:06.36
SO WAS THAT IN THE CHURCH?
00:09:06.36\00:09:07.93
THAT WAS IN THE CHURCH, AND
ACTUALLY, THE MARIMBA WAS
SITTING ON THE BAGS OF RICE
00:09:07.93\00:09:14.46
AND THE GRAIN.
00:09:14.46\00:09:15.96
I JUST HAVE TO TELL YOU AS A
SIDELIGHT HERE, WE HELPED THEIR
00:09:15.96\00:09:22.56
ECONOMY THAT DAY. BY?
00:09:22.56\00:09:24.16
WE BOUGHT BAGS OF RICE AND TOOK
THEM TO TOWN OR BAGS OF SORGHUM
TOOK THEM TO TOWN AND
00:09:24.16\00:09:30.10
FOR THEIR POOR FUND THERE.
00:09:30.10\00:09:32.80
OH.
00:09:32.80\00:09:33.70
IN THE CITY THEY GIVE
FOOD AWAY TO THE POOR.
00:09:33.70\00:09:36.80
HOW NICE!
00:09:36.80\00:09:38.36
SO THERE WERE SEVERAL OF US
TRAVELING TOGETHER ON THIS FORAY
OUT INTO THE BUSH, AND
00:09:38.36\00:09:44.06
WE FILLED UP THE BACK END OF
THAT PICKUP WITH BAGS OF GRAIN
00:09:44.06\00:09:50.20
AND TWO CHICKENS. PRAISE
THE LORD, AND OFF THEY WENT.
00:09:50.20\00:09:52.00
THAT WAS THEIR TITHE.
00:09:52.00\00:09:53.56
SEE ISN'T THAT FANTASTIC?
00:09:53.56\00:09:55.43
SO WHAT IS THE
AGRICULTURE, THE LAND LIKE?
00:09:55.43\00:09:58.36
I MEAN IS IT
EASY FOR THEM TO FARM?
00:09:58.36\00:10:02.10
IS IT DIFFICULT?
00:10:02.10\00:10:03.60
A RAINY SEASON-I MEAN CAN THE
RAIN COME AND TOTALLY WASH OUT
00:10:03.60\00:10:09.66
THEIR WHOLE CROP? THEY
HAVE TO DO THE TIMING VERY, VERY
00:10:09.66\00:10:11.80
CAREFULLY. THEY HAVE TWO RAINY
SEASONS A YEAR THERE DEPENDING
UPON WHERE THEY LIVE.
00:10:11.80\00:10:15.93
MAYBE ONE-SO THEY
HAVE TO MAKE THE TIMING.
00:10:15.93\00:10:19.50
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
00:10:19.50\00:10:20.76
IT IS VERY FLAT, AND IT IS
VERY HOT, AND IT IS VERY DRY.
00:10:20.76\00:10:25.16
DID YOU SEE HOW SMALL THE
GRAINS OF THAT SORGHUM WAS?
00:10:25.16\00:10:28.63
YES.
00:10:28.63\00:10:29.63
IN THAT BAG?
00:10:29.63\00:10:30.63
YES, THAT IS ALL
HARVESTED BY HAND.
00:10:30.63\00:10:32.10
WOW.
00:10:32.10\00:10:33.63
WE THINK OF HERE IN THE STATES,
YOU KNOW, THE BIG COMBINES AND
00:10:33.63\00:10:37.80
ALL OF THAT, AND YOU HEAR
BUSHELS AND BUSHELS AND ALL OF
THA, BUT FOR THEM A HUGE BAG OF
00:10:37.80\00:10:44.00
THIS SORGHUM
WOULD BE A LOT OF WORK.
00:10:44.00\00:10:45.50
WOW.
00:10:45.50\00:10:46.50
THEY BEAT IT OUT BY HAND.
00:10:46.50\00:10:47.96
THEY HAVE BIG STICKS, AND THEY
PUT IT INTO PILES, AND THEN THEY
00:10:47.96\00:10:52.96
BEAT ON IT.
ISN'T THAT SOMETHING?
00:10:52.96\00:10:56.60
SO THAT TRULY IS A
GIFT FROM THE HEART.
00:10:56.60\00:10:59.86
YES.
00:10:59.86\00:11:00.93
THEIR WHOLE BODY, EVERYTHING.
00:11:00.93\00:11:02.06
THEY WERE BEAMING; THEY WERE
SO HAPPY TO OPEN UP THE DOORS.
00:11:02.06\00:11:05.06
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THEY
THOUGHT GLEN WINTERMEYER HAD
NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT
00:11:05.06\00:11:07.90
BEFORE, AND I HADN'T, YOU
HADN'T, SO WOW, YOU KNOW, HERE
IS THEIR GRAIN HOUSE INSIDE
00:11:07.90\00:11:13.70
THEIR CHURCH, BUT IT SAYS BRING
ALL THE TITHES INTO THE
STOREHOUSE, AND THAT WAS THEIR
00:11:13.70\00:11:20.40
STOREHOUSE, AND THEY
WERE GIVING FROM THEIR HEARTS.
00:11:20.40\00:11:25.00
ABSOLUTELY.
00:11:25.00\00:11:26.56
IN THE BOOK OF MALACHI IT TELLS
US WHERE THE LORD SAYS, "BRING
YOUR TITHE INTO THE
00:11:26.56\00:11:31.06
STOREHOUSE" AND THERE WAS A
STORY WE WERE TOLD THAT I WANTED
00:11:31.06\00:11:35.03
TO SHARE WITH YOU. PLEASE.
00:11:35.03\00:11:36.70
IT WAS A NEW CHURCH MEMBER, AND
HE HAD LEARNED ABOUT TITHE AND
WHAT GOD ASKS US TO DO BY
00:11:36.70\00:11:43.23
GIVING ONE TENTH TO HIM, TO THE
LORD, AND SO HE DECIDED THIS
YEAR HE IS GOING TO GIVE
00:11:43.23\00:11:50.80
A TITHE.
00:11:50.80\00:11:53.03
WHEN HE HARVESTED HIS CROP OF
CORN HE HAD HE DECIDED THAT
EVERY TENTH BAG WOULD BE SET
00:11:53.03\00:11:59.10
ASIDE FOR GOD.
00:12:02.00\00:12:04.03
SO, HE STARTED TO HARVEST, AND
THE FIRST NINE BAGS HE PUT IN A
PILE FOR HIMSELF AND THEN
00:12:04.03\00:12:11.70
THE TENTH BAG HE
PUT IN A PILE FOR GOD.
00:12:11.70\00:12:13.96
BUT AS HE HARVESTED HE NOTICED
THAT EVERY TENTH BAG, THE GRAIN
WAS MUCH LARGER AND
00:12:13.96\00:12:20.03
BIGGER THEN IN
ALL THE OTHER BAGS.
00:12:26.43\00:12:30.30
WONDER WHY?
00:12:30.30\00:12:31.63
SO HE DECIDED HE IS GOING
TO SWITCH THE NINTH BAG FOR THE
00:12:31.63\00:12:38.50
TENTH BAG. SWITCH AND BAIT?
00:12:38.50\00:12:40.10
SO THEY SWITCHED HIS FOR GOD'S,
SO WHEN HE FINISHED HE HAD A
PILE FOR HIMSELF AND HE
00:12:40.10\00:12:46.43
HAD A PILE FOR GOD.
00:12:46.43\00:12:49.33
BUT BEFORE HE WAS ABLE TO BRING
THE BAGS HOME, A FIRE SUDDENLY
CAME AND BURNED PART
00:12:49.33\00:12:55.40
OF THE FIELD, AND IT BURNED
UP ALL OF HIS BAGS, EVERY ONE OF
00:12:59.86\00:13:05.13
THEM. BUT---- YES, GOD'S BAGS
WERE IN A DIFFERENT PILE IN THE
FIELD, AND THE FIRE NEVER
00:13:05.13\00:13:11.20
TOUCHED THEM.
00:13:13.86\00:13:14.86
GOD'S BAGS WERE ALL O.K.
00:13:14.86\00:13:16.50
THAT MAN WENT TO CHURCH THAT
WEEK, AND HE STOOD UP AND HE
TESTIFIED TO EVERYONE, AND HE
00:13:16.50\00:13:21.93
SAID, "I ROBBED GOD
AND WHAT GOD SAID IS TRUE."
00:13:25.50\00:13:29.53
HE TOLD THE STORY OF HOW ALL OF
HIS WAS BURNED UP, AND HOW GOD'S
00:13:29.53\00:13:36.50
WAS NOT. AND THIS MAN SAID
THAT GOD TALKED TO HIS HEART.
00:13:36.50\00:13:41.20
HE SAID AND HE DOES NOT
EVER WANT TO DO THIS AGAIN.
00:13:41.20\00:13:44.53
WOW, ISN'T THAT AMAZING?
00:13:44.53\00:13:46.66
INCREDIBLE TESTIMONY.
00:13:46.66\00:13:47.83
ABSOLUTELY.
00:13:47.83\00:13:48.80
WELL AND VERY HUMBLING
THAT THE MAN SHARED THAT.
00:13:48.80\00:13:52.16
YES, VERY HUMBLING.
00:13:52.16\00:13:53.43
WHAT A STORY.
00:13:53.43\00:13:54.53
VERY, VERY TRANSPARENT.
00:13:54.53\00:13:56.53
YES, ABSOLUTELY.
00:13:56.53\00:13:57.96
WELL PRAISE THE LORD FOR
THAT STORY FOR ALL OF US, YOU GO
00:13:57.96\00:14:03.70
AHEAD, NO FINISH. YOU SAW THE
MAN HOLDING THE GRAIN, THE
FARMER THAT BROUGHT THAT GRAIN
00:14:05.86\00:14:13.03
IN WASN'T A TITHE PAYER, AND HE
SAID, " IF GOD WILL BLESS ME,
DOES THAT RESONATE WITH JACOB?
00:14:13.03\00:14:20.93
IF GOD WILL BLESS ME,
THEN I JACOB WILL TITHE WHAT I
00:14:20.93\00:14:27.03
RECEIVE." THIS GUY DID THE SAME
THING JULIE, AND HE SAID, "IF
GOD BLESSES ME, I WILL GIVE
00:14:27.03\00:14:32.13
TITHE AND OFFERINGS."
00:14:32.13\00:14:33.50
GUESS WHAT?
00:14:33.50\00:14:35.00
HE WAS BLESSED; HE GAVE TITHE
AND OFFERINGS, AND NOT ONLY DID
00:14:35.00\00:14:38.73
HE GIVE TITHE AND OFFERINGS,
HE GAVE A BONUS TO THE CHURCH OF
00:14:38.73\00:14:43.76
$100 U.S.
DOLLARS FOR EVANGELISM.
00:14:43.76\00:14:46.16
WOW, PRAISE THE LORD!
00:14:46.16\00:14:48.06
TO EVANGELIZE THE
NEXT VILLAGE OVER.
00:14:48.06\00:14:50.46
THIS IS A POOR FARMER.
00:14:50.46\00:14:52.80
IF A POOR FARMER CAN DO THAT,
WE CAN ALL DO WHAT WE CAN RIGHT?
00:14:52.80\00:14:56.63
AMEN.
00:14:56.63\00:14:57.63
WE CAN DO ALL DO WHAT WE CAN.
00:14:57.63\00:14:59.06
THAT IS WHERE YOU
COME INTO THE PICTURE.
00:14:59.06\00:15:01.76
IF YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU CAN TO
GIVE TO GOSPEL OUTREACH, YOU CAN
HELP PEOPLE IN THESE
00:15:01.76\00:15:07.23
COUNTRIES THAT GOSPEL OUTREACH
HAS GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN,
AND WE HAVE A PROGRAM
00:15:07.23\00:15:13.30
CALLED "ADOPT A WORKER," AND
GLEN AND KAREN NEED AN ADOPT A
00:15:20.33\00:15:23.40
WORKER. THEY NEED MANY ADOPT A
WORKERS IN THEIR TERRITORY, AND
WE HAVE SOME MORE INFORMATION TO
00:15:23.40\00:15:27.20
SHARE WITH YOU.
00:15:27.20\00:15:28.20
[VIDEO].
00:15:28.20\00:15:29.73
GOSPEL OUTREACH BEGAN A MISSION
TWENTY YEARS AGO BY ASKING ONE
00:15:29.73\00:15:31.23
SIMPLE QUESTION. IN A WORLD
FILLED WITH FAMINE, HUNGER AND
STARVATION WHAT IS JESUS WAITING
00:15:31.23\00:15:34.53
FOR? IN A WORLD FILLED WITH
EARTHQUAKES, HURRICANES AND
NATURAL CALAMITIES, WHAT IS
00:15:34.53\00:15:37.40
JESUS WAITING FOR?
00:15:37.40\00:15:39.06
THE GOSPEL TELLS US IN MATTHEW
24:14 "AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE
KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN
00:15:39.06\00:15:43.90
ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS UNTO
ALL NATIONS AND THEN SHALL THE
00:15:43.90\00:15:49.26
END COME." INSPIRED BY THOSE
WORDS, GOSPEL OUTREACH BEGAN
00:15:51.50\00:15:55.80
WITH ONE WORKER. OVER THE PAST
TWENTY YEARS, IT HAS GROWN INTO
AN ORGANIZATION WITH 2200
00:15:55.80\00:16:02.43
WORKERS IN 40 PLUS COUNTRIES.
00:16:02.43\00:16:03.80
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS AN
INDEPENDENT SEVENTH DAY
ADVENTIST LAY MINISTRY RUN
00:16:03.80\00:16:06.90
ENTIRELY BY VOLUNTEERS.
00:16:06.90\00:16:09.96
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKS WITH THE
ORGANIZED CHURCH TO SPONSOR
BIBLE WORKERS IN THE 10/40
00:16:09.96\00:16:14.66
WINDOW.
00:16:14.66\00:16:16.10
NOW, WHAT EXACLTY
IS THE 10/40 WINDOW?
00:16:16.10\00:16:19.83
THE 10/40 WINDOW IS A REGION OF
THE EASTERN HEMISPHERE LOCATED
00:16:19.83\00:16:24.46
BETWEEN 10 AND 40
DEGREES NORTH OF THE EQUATOR.
00:16:24.46\00:16:25.90
WHAT MAKES THIS REGION SPECIAL?
00:16:25.90\00:16:29.30
NINETY SEVEN PER CENT OF ALL THE
PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WHO HAVE
NEVER HEARD OF JESUS LIVE
00:16:29.30\00:16:34.96
HERE.
00:16:34.96\00:16:36.20
NOW HOW EXACTLY DOES GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORK TO REACH THESE
00:16:36.20\00:16:39.40
PEOPLE? WE DO THIS BY WORKING
WITH THE CHURCH AS IT PLACES
TRAINED INDIGENOUS WORKERS IN
00:16:39.40\00:16:45.56
NEW TERRITORIES SENDING OUT
DISCIPLES JUST AS JESUS DID.
00:16:45.56\00:16:48.23
WHEN A BIBLE WORKER SPONSORED BY
GOSPEL OUTREACH ENTERS A NEW
VILLAGE, IT IS ESTIMATED
00:16:48.23\00:16:53.76
THAT IN THE FIRST YEAR AN
ADDITIONAL 300 INDIVIDUALS WILL
BE BAPTIZED AND COMMIT
00:16:53.76\00:16:59.36
THEIR LIVES TO CHRIST.
00:16:59.36\00:17:01.00
INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NEVER HEARD
THE AMAZING STORY OF GOD'S LOVE
ARE GETTING TO MEET
00:17:01.00\00:17:05.86
JESUS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
00:17:05.86\00:17:08.23
NOW HOW CAN YOU HELP?
00:17:08.23\00:17:09.70
BIBLE WORKERS RELY ON
SPONSORSHIPS TO SUPPORT THEM AND
THEIR FAMILIES AS THEY
00:17:09.70\00:17:14.36
SHARE THE
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE OF GOD.
00:17:14.36\00:17:18.00
THIS IS WHY GOSPEL OUTREACH IS
INTRODUCING OUR "ADOPT A WORKER
PROGRAM" TOGETHER WITH
00:17:18.00\00:17:23.16
THE CHURCH, WE IDENTIFY NEW
WORKERS IN AREAS THAT NEED TO BE
REACHED AND THAT IS WHY IT
00:17:23.16\00:17:28.00
IS OUR GOAL TO INTRODUCE A
MILLION NEW PEOPLE TO JESUS IN
THE NEXT THREE YEARS.
00:17:28.00\00:17:32.93
ALL THAT IS REMAINING FOR THIS
WORK TO BEGIN IS YOUR FINANCIAL
00:17:32.93\00:17:36.46
HELP. IN RETURN WE WILL KEEP YOU
UPDATED ON THE EXCITING PROGRESS
00:17:36.46\00:17:42.60

00:19:05.70\00:19:07.06
SO, KAREN AND GLEN YOU HAVE A
COUPLE MORE THINGS TO SHARE WITH
00:19:07.06\00:19:09.50
US HERE. WE DO.
00:19:09.50\00:19:10.86
EVERYTIME I TRAVEL
INTERNATIONALLY I AM SO
IMPRESSED WITH THE INGENUITY
00:19:10.86\00:19:12.26
OF WHAT PEOPLE DO WITH THEIR
HANDS, HOW THEY USE THE TOOLS
00:19:12.26\00:19:13.93
THAT THEY USE. HERE IS
ONE OF MY FAVORITE PICTURES.
00:19:13.93\00:19:15.56
HERE IS A FARMER, AND HERE IS
HIS AXE, AND THIS IS WHAT HE IS
USING OUT IN THE WOODS TO
00:19:15.56\00:19:21.13
CUT THE BRUSH, TO MAKE CHARCOAL,
TO TAKE HOME FOR FIRES.
00:19:24.16\00:19:30.23
JUST UNBELIEVABLE WHAT
THEY DO; HOW THEY DO IT.
00:19:32.43\00:19:38.53
THIS IS A STICK.
00:19:38.53\00:19:40.16
IT LOOKS LIKE A BONE, BUT THIS
IS BURL OF A PIECE OF HARDWOOD
BRUSH THAT THEY HAVE STUCK
00:19:40.16\00:19:45.56
THAT STEEL INTO AND I
DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT LASTS?
00:19:49.30\00:19:52.10
IT SEEMS LIKE IF I WAS SWINGING
THAT AXE, IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T
00:19:52.10\00:19:57.10
LAST VERY LONG.
IT WAS RAZOR SHARP.
00:19:57.10\00:19:58.93
WAS IT REALLY KAREN?
00:19:58.93\00:19:59.93
YES.
00:19:59.93\00:20:01.50
WELL YOU THINK ABOUT GOING TO
HOME DEPOT AND HOW MANY
DIFFERENT SIZES OF AXE HANDLES
00:20:01.50\00:20:04.83
ARE THERE, SHORT, LONG,
TALL, SKINNY OR WHATEVER.
00:20:04.83\00:20:07.96
YES.
00:20:07.96\00:20:08.83
HERE HE HAS MADE HIS
OWN, BLESS HIS HEART.
00:20:08.83\00:20:12.66
SO IS HE ONE OF
THE CHURCH MEMBERS?
00:20:12.66\00:20:15.10
HE IS A CHURCH MEMBER THERE, A
BELIEVER, AND HE WAS THERE WITH
ALL THOSE MEN WHO BROUGHT
00:20:15.10\00:20:20.56
THOSE SACKS.
00:20:20.56\00:20:21.56
O.K.
00:20:21.56\00:20:22.90
YOU KNOW WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
TITHING AND THE IMPORTANCE OF
00:20:22.90\00:20:26.16
TITHING. MALACHI 3 IS GIVEN AS A
RESULT OF MALACHI 1, BECAUSE IF
YOU GO TO MALACHI 1:14, THE
00:20:26.16\00:20:32.23
REASON GOD WAS LABORING WITH HIS
PEOPLE IS THAT THE PEOPLE WERE
BRINGING DEFECTIVE OFFERINGS,
00:20:35.06\00:20:41.93
AND JUST LIKE KAREN SHARED IN
THAT STORY, THIS GUY BEGAN TO
NOTICE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
00:20:41.93\00:20:48.53
BAGS 1-9 AND BAG 10.
00:20:48.53\00:20:51.96
YES.
00:20:51.96\00:20:57.33
WE HAVE ONE OTHER STORY THAT WE
WANT TO SHARE, PLEASE, BECAUSE
WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE
00:20:57.33\00:21:02.20
THE IDEA THAT WE
SHOULD BRING OUR SECOND BEST.
00:21:02.20\00:21:04.16
GOD WANTS OUR BEST FROM US
PERSONALLY, HE WANTS THE BEST OF
OUR MEANS AND HERE IS YET
00:21:04.16\00:21:10.03
ANOTHER STORY FROM THE BUSH.
00:21:10.03\00:21:13.80
THERE WAS A MAN WHO HAD A FIELD
AND HE DECIDED TO PLANT
PINEAPPLE IN THIS FIELD, BUT
00:21:13.80\00:21:19.10
FIRST HE DIVIDED HIS FIELD INTO
PARTS: TEN PARTS; NINE WERE FOR
HIMSELF AND ONE PART
00:21:19.10\00:21:25.13
WAS FOR GOD.
00:21:27.46\00:21:28.46
THE PART FOR TITHE.
00:21:28.46\00:21:31.23
BUT HE NOTICED THAT GOD'S PART
GREW BIGGER AND BIGGER MUCH
BIGGER THAN THE REST.
00:21:31.23\00:21:39.03
SO, HE TOLD GOD
THAT WAS NOT FAIR.
00:21:39.03\00:21:41.86
SO HE SWITCHED GOD'S PART FOR
ONE PART OF HIS BUT NOW HE
NOTICED THAT THAT PART HE GAVE
00:21:41.86\00:21:47.93
TO GOD BEGAN TO GROW BIGGER AND
NICER PINEAPPLES THAN ALL THE
00:21:49.90\00:21:55.96
REST. SO, HE BECAME VERY ANGRY,
AND HE SAID, "I'LL NOT SET A
PART ASIDE FOR GOD.
00:21:58.03\00:22:02.66
I'LL JUST WAIT UNTIL THE VERY
END, AND I'LL GIVE ONE PART TO
00:22:02.66\00:22:09.96
GOD," HE SAID. BUT BEFORE THE
HARVEST, A BIG FIRE CAME AND
BURNED UP THE WHOLE FIELD, AND
00:22:09.96\00:22:16.00
ON SABBATH HE CAME TO THIS
LITTLE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST
CHURCH AND HE CONFESSED WHAT HE
00:22:18.76\00:22:24.83
DID, AND HE PRAYED
TO BE FORGIVEN BY GOD.
00:22:27.03\00:22:30.50
HE ASKED THE MEMBERS TO PLEASE
PRAY FOR HIM, HE SAID, SO THAT
GOD WOULD FORGIVE HIM.
00:22:30.50\00:22:35.76
WOW, AGAIN THE HONESTY AND
THE HUMILITY OF COMING IN AND
00:22:35.76\00:22:41.83
SHARING THAT. IT IS AMAZING TO
SEE THE WAY THE HOLY SPIRIT
SPEAKS TO THESE PEOPLE.
00:22:44.00\00:22:51.03
ONE OF THE IMPORTANT WAYS THAT
WE TAUGHT WHEN WE WERE THERE IN
THE BIBLE STUDY IS THAT WE
00:22:51.03\00:22:57.10
ASK GOOD QUESTIONS AND
THEN WE PAUSE AND WAIT.
00:22:59.20\00:23:03.66
WAIT FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT TO
SPEAK TO THESE MEN AND WOMEN AND
IT BRINGS DEEP CONVICTION.
00:23:03.66\00:23:10.33
I'VE USED THE SAME BIBLE STUDY
METHOD HERE JUST IN THE LAST
COUPLE OF WEEKS HERE IN THE
00:23:10.33\00:23:14.60
UNITED STATES, AND
AGAIN, THE PAUSE AND WAIT.
00:23:14.60\00:23:18.26
IT IS AMAZING THE CONFESSIONS,
THE OBSERVATIONS THAT PEOPLE
MAKE WHEN YOU WILL JUST WAIT
00:23:18.26\00:23:24.33
FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:23:28.46\00:23:30.63
WELL, AS ONE STORY IT IS ONE
STORY, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE
TEN, FIFTEEEN OF THEM, BUT
00:23:30.63\00:23:36.80
IT'S ONE STORY THAT CAN APPLY TO
ALL OF US AS WE LOOK AND AS THE
00:23:36.80\00:23:41.53
LORD LEADS. WELL, I THANK
BOTH OF YOU FOR BEING HERE.
00:23:41.53\00:23:44.53
SHARE WITH US SOME OF THE- AS
YOU HAVE COME BACK FROM VISITING
00:23:44.53\00:23:49.70
WITH THESE DEAR PEOPLE, IS THERE
SOMETHING THAT HITS YOU SO
STRONGLY ON WHAT THE LORD IS
00:23:49.70\00:23:56.56
DOING IN THAT AREA?
00:23:56.56\00:23:58.63
I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO SEE TWO
THINGS: ONE, IT WOULD BE GREAT
TO HAVE A TRAINING BUDGET FOR
00:23:58.63\00:24:04.76
THESE PEOPLE FOR THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKERS SO THAT WE
COULD EFFECTIVELY TRAIN THEM,
00:24:08.60\00:24:14.93
BRING THEM TOGETHER AS
GROUPS RATHER THAN INDIVIDUALLY.
00:24:14.93\00:24:19.36
I CAN'T GO TO ALL THE DIFFERENT
REGIONS WITHIN A GIVEN MISSION.
00:24:19.36\00:24:23.43
I CAN PREACH IT,
TEACH IT, AND SHARE IT ONCE.
00:24:23.43\00:24:27.36
TWICE IS HARD.
00:24:27.36\00:24:28.83
WE DID IT TWICE IN ONE COUNTRY,
BUT, FUNDS FOR TRAINING AND
00:24:28.83\00:24:34.70
BRINGING ALL THE
WORKERS TOGETHER.
00:24:34.70\00:24:36.13
THE SECOND IS THAT PARTICULARLY
IN MALI AND IN BURKINA FASO, THE
00:24:36.13\00:24:44.10
DISTANCES ARE SO GREAT THAT TO
HAVE MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION- A
MOTORCYCLE, A SIMPLE
00:24:44.10\00:24:51.50
MOTORCYCLE WOULD MAKE SUCH
A DIFFERENCE FOR THESE GUYS.
00:24:51.50\00:24:55.70
HOW MUCH?
00:24:55.70\00:24:56.70
ABOUT $800.
00:24:56.70\00:24:57.70
EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS
WOULD BUY A MOTORCYCLE, YES.
00:24:57.70\00:24:59.46
SO THEY COULD
TRAVEL MORE EASILY.
00:24:59.46\00:25:02.10
OH YES, MUCH MORE EASILY, AND I
WANT THEM TO BE SELF SUFFICIENT,
00:25:02.10\00:25:09.60
SO I WANT THEM TO PUT AWAY A FEW
DOLLARS EVERY MONTH TO BUY THAT
00:25:09.60\00:25:14.00
MOTORCYCLE. WE CAN BE THE
INCEPTION OF THE PROGRAM, BUT ON
ROUND TWO THEY WILL HAVE MONEY
00:25:14.00\00:25:19.96
SAVED, AND THEY CAN BUY THEIR
OWN MOTORCYCLE FOR THE SECOND
00:25:19.96\00:25:22.90
TIME AROUND. WHEN THEIRS
WEARS OUT OR BREAKS OR WHATEVER.
00:25:22.90\00:25:26.33
SURE, SO IF THERE IS A VIEWER
WHO IS WATCHING, AND THEY
SPECIFICALLY WANT TO BUY A
00:25:26.33\00:25:32.26
MOTORCYCLE FOR WEST AFRICA;
THEY COULD EARMARK THAT COULDN'T
00:25:32.26\00:25:36.93
THEY? SURE, GOOD.
00:25:36.93\00:25:38.06
KAREN WHAT ARE SOME OTHER
NEEDS THAT YOU ARE SO AWARE OF?
00:25:38.06\00:25:43.26
I AM JUST TOTALLY AMAZED AT
THE DEDICATION OF THESE WORKERS.
00:25:43.26\00:25:49.33
THEY LOVE TO SHARE THE GOSPEL.
00:25:51.96\00:25:54.60
THEY DON'T HAVE
MUCH MONEY TO LIVE.
00:25:54.60\00:25:56.93
IT IS DIFFICULT, BUT THEIR
COMMITMENT- AND MANY OF THEM
HAVE MANY GROUPS THAT THEY ARE
00:25:56.93\00:26:04.16
IN CHARGE OF.
00:26:04.16\00:26:05.16
ONE HAS AS MANY AS THIRTEEN.
00:26:05.16\00:26:08.50
THIRTEEN?
00:26:08.50\00:26:09.70
THIRTEEN LITTLE CHURCHES OR
GROUPS THAT HE IS IN CHARGE OF.
00:26:09.70\00:26:13.60
KIND OF HARD TO GET TO
THIRTEEN CHURCHES EACH WEEK.
00:26:13.60\00:26:16.36
THEY ARE HARD
WORKERS, LET ME TELL YOU.
00:26:16.36\00:26:19.80
YOU KNOW THEY ARE
DOING THE WORK THERE.
00:26:19.80\00:26:21.86
IN MOST OF THESE COUNTRIES IF
THEY HAD NO GOSPEL OUTREACH
WORKERS THEY WOULD HAVE
00:26:21.86\00:26:27.80
SEVERAL COUNTRIES THAT WOULD
HAVE TWO OR THREE PASTORS AND
THAT IS IT IN THE WHOLE
00:26:27.80\00:26:31.83
COUNTRY.
00:26:31.83\00:26:33.10
SO THAT IS A BLESSING TO
HAVE THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS
00:26:33.10\00:26:34.66
THERE. YES, AMEN.
00:26:34.66\00:26:36.00
WELL, KAREN AND GLEN WINTERMEYER

AFRICA AND I PRAY THAT THE HOLY
SPIRIT WILL IMPRESS
00:26:40.33\00:26:44.36

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL

00:27:09.56\00:27:13.80
OUTREACH. FOR "ADVENTURES IN

SANDERS-KEYMER, AND MAY THE LORD
00:27:13.80\00:27:18.00
BLESS YOU. [CLOSING MUSIC].
00:27:18.00\00:27:19.00
I NEED TO SPREAD
THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME.
00:27:19.00\00:27:21.56
WHERE IS THE
10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY?
00:27:21.56\00:27:23.50
THOSE PEOPLE ARE TOO FAR AWAY.
00:27:23.50\00:27:25.66
SOMEONE ELSE CAN
TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS.
00:27:25.66\00:27:27.46
MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV?
00:27:27.46\00:27:30.53
NEARLY THREE BILLION
PEOPLE TO REACH, MY HEAD HURTS.
00:27:30.53\00:27:35.13
THERE'S NOTHING I
CAN DO, I GIVE UP.
00:27:35.13\00:27:39.23
WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING?
00:27:39.23\00:27:41.93
I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:27:41.93\00:27:44.00
ACTUALLY YOU CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE, AND JESUS ASKED YOU
TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:44.00\00:27:51.43
WHERE?
00:27:51.43\00:27:52.43
ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:52.43\00:27:53.43
HOW CAN I GO?
00:27:53.43\00:27:54.43
I HAVE COMMITMENTS.
00:27:54.43\00:27:56.20
YOU CAN PRAY.
00:27:56.20\00:27:57.30
YOU CAN VOLUNTEER YOUR TALENTS.
00:27:57.30\00:28:03.43
YOU CAN TELL OTHERS.
00:28:21.50\00:28:22.40
YOU CAN GIVE MONEY TO
SPONSOR BIBLE WORKERS.
00:28:22.40\00:28:24.10
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE
SEARCHING FOR HOPE AND MEANING
00:28:24.10\00:28:26.03
BUT THEY WON'T
FIND IT WITHOUT YOU.
00:28:26.03\00:28:27.56
BE THE SPARK, LIGHT THE FIRE,
FINISH THE WORK, FINISH THE
00:28:27.56\00:28:28.56
