[OPENING MUSIC].
00:00:00.43\00:00:16.28
WELCOME TO ADVENTURES IN
MISSIONS WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:00:16.31\00:00:20.58
WE'RE DELIGHTED THAT YOU HAVE
CHOSEN TO TUNE IN TODAY AND WE
00:00:20.62\00:00:24.85
APPRECIATE YOU'RE BEING A PART
OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH FAMILY.
00:00:24.89\00:00:28.52
MY NAME IS MIKE PORTER AND TODAY
IT IS MY PRIVILEGE TO INTRODUCE
00:00:28.56\00:00:34.10
TO YOU DR. DON HALENZ.
00:00:34.13\00:00:37.57
THAT'S RIGHT, THANK YOU.
00:00:37.60\00:00:39.10
AND DR. HALENZ, YOU KNOW, I
GUESS I DON'T NEED TO COME TO
00:00:39.13\00:00:43.27
YOU IF I'M SICK BECAUSE YOU
HAVE A LITTLE DIFFERENT AREA.
00:00:43.30\00:00:45.27
NO, I'M NOT THAT
KIND OF A DOCTOR.
00:00:45.31\00:00:47.28
YOU'RE A
DIFFERENT KIND OF A DOCTOR.
00:00:47.31\00:00:49.28
YOU WORKED IN THE
AREA OF CHEMISTRY I THINK.
00:00:49.31\00:00:51.28
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:00:51.31\00:00:52.81
AND YOU'VE BEEN A TEACHER, A
PROFESSOR AND A CHURCH
ADMINISTRATOR, A SCHOOL
00:00:52.85\00:00:54.65
ADMINISTRATOR FOR MANY YEARS.
00:00:54.68\00:00:55.98
THAT'S TRUE.
00:00:56.02\00:00:57.15
SO YOU HAVE A VERY
INTERESTING MISSION BACKGROUND.
00:00:57.19\00:01:01.19
TELL ME SOME OF THE PLACES
THAT YOU HAVE WORKED IN MISSION
00:01:01.22\00:01:04.63
SERVICE. WELL, WE STARTED OUT,
WE HAD A CALL ORIGINALLY TO
AFRICA AND MY WIFE AND I
00:01:04.66\00:01:08.96
WERE LOOKING FORWARD
TO SERVING IN AFRICA.
00:01:09.00\00:01:12.20
WE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
00:01:12.23\00:01:14.04
WE DIDN'T BUY A HOUSE, WE DIDN'T
BUY A CAR BECAUSE WE WERE GOING
00:01:14.07\00:01:16.94
TO AFRICA AND THEN AFTER ABOUT
A YEAR WE GOT A LETTER FROM THE
00:01:16.97\00:01:20.54
GENERAL CONFERENCE THAT THE CALL
WAS BEING WITHDRAWN SO MY WIFE
SAID THAT'S IT, WE'RE DONE WITH
00:01:20.58\00:01:25.58
MISSIONS.
00:01:25.61\00:01:26.58
FORGET ABOUT
MISSION SERVICE FOR YOU.
00:01:26.61\00:01:28.58
THEN MY WIFE'S SISTER WHO WAS A
MISSIONARY IN TAIWAN SAID LOOK,
00:01:28.62\00:01:32.49
WE HEARD THERE'S A CALL COMING
FOR YOU FOR THE PHILIPPINES.
00:01:32.52\00:01:34.49
WHATEVER YOU DO
DON'T TURN THAT CALL DOWN.
00:01:34.52\00:01:37.53
MY WIFE SAID I'M NOT
INTERESTED, NOT INTEREST.
00:01:37.56\00:01:39.89
SO NOTHING HAPPENED.
00:01:39.93\00:01:42.40
NEARLY A YEAR PASSED AND THEN WE
GOT A LETTER IN THE MAIL AND IN
00:01:42.43\00:01:45.53
THE MEANTIME MY
WIFE'S HEART HAD CHANGED.
00:01:45.57\00:01:47.90
SHE SAID I THINK WE SHOULD GO.
00:01:47.94\00:01:50.14
SO WE WENT TO THE PHILIPPINES.
00:01:50.17\00:01:51.51
I TAUGHT CHEMISTRY FOR A COUPLE
OF YEARS AT PHILIPPINE UNION
00:01:51.54\00:01:54.24
COLLEGE ON THE OLD CAMPUS.
00:01:54.28\00:01:55.41
NOW WHERE WERE YOU
LIVING AT THE TIME.
00:01:55.44\00:01:57.75
AT THAT TIME WE WERE
AT ANDREWS UNIVERSITY.
00:01:57.78\00:01:59.91
I WAS ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
OF CHEMISTRY IN THE CHEMISTRY
00:01:59.95\00:02:03.89
DEPARTMENT AT ANDREWS SO
THAT WAS MY BACKGROUND THERE.
00:02:03.92\00:02:07.26
SO YOU TAUGHT AT ANDREWS
AND SOME IN CALIFORNIA ALSO.
00:02:07.29\00:02:10.76
MY MOST RECENT EXPERIENCE AFTER
RETURNING FROM OVERSEAS WAS TO
00:02:10.79\00:02:15.56
JOIN THE CHEMISTRY FACULTY
AT PACIFIC UNION COLLEGE.
00:02:15.60\00:02:18.27
SO I WORKED THERE FOR A NUMBER
OF YEARS FROM 1987 OR SO ON UP
00:02:18.30\00:02:23.37
UNTIL TEN YEARS AGO WHEN I
RETIRED AND THEN BECAME
INTERESTED IN GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:02:26.94\00:02:31.01
OK.
00:02:31.05\00:02:32.01
SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.
00:02:32.05\00:02:34.35
YOU RETIRED ABOUT TEN YEARS
AGO AND THEN YOU UNDERSTOOD THAT
00:02:34.38\00:02:39.85
THEY WERE HIRING
AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:02:39.89\00:02:41.99
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:02:42.02\00:02:43.26
SO YOU CAME OVER HERE AND
NOW THEY HAVE HIRED YOU TO WORK.
00:02:43.29\00:02:45.63
THAT'S THE SHORT STORY.
00:02:45.66\00:02:46.83
OH THAT'S THE SHORT STORY.
00:02:46.86\00:02:48.30
THE LONGER STORY WAS I SENT
AN APPLICATION AND DIDN'T HEAR
00:02:48.33\00:02:51.73
ANYTHING FOR A LONG TIME.
00:02:51.77\00:02:52.97
WELL BEFORE YOU GO THERE,
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE HIRED?
00:02:53.00\00:02:56.44
THE SALARY IS REALLY GREAT?
00:02:56.47\00:02:57.51
THERE'S NO SALARY.
00:02:57.54\00:02:58.51
OH, THERE'S NO SALARY.
00:02:58.54\00:02:59.51
IT'S ALL VOLUNTEER.
00:02:59.54\00:03:00.58
SO THEY HIRED YOU TO
COME AND WORK FOR FREE.
00:03:00.61\00:03:02.58
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:03:02.61\00:03:03.55
OK, I GET IT.
00:03:03.58\00:03:05.01
I WAS SITTING AT A CAMP MEETING
NEXT TO BEVERLY, FORGOT HER LAST
00:03:05.05\00:03:09.78
NAME, BEVERLY ANYWAY AND SHE
SAYS YOU KNOW I UNDERSTAND
THERE'S AN OPENING IN
00:03:09.82\00:03:13.79
SOUTH INDIA WHY DON'T YOU APPLY.
00:03:13.82\00:03:16.06
SO I SENT A LETTER,
DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING.
00:03:16.09\00:03:18.33
SIX MONTHS LATER I GOT A PHONE
CALL, ACTUALLY AN EMAIL, FROM
00:03:18.36\00:03:22.63
DAN PREAS SAYING WE'D LIKE
TO TALK TO YOU SO COME TO OUR
00:03:22.66\00:03:25.90
MEETING. SO WE CAME TO THE
MEETING AND WE WERE "HIRED" NO
SALARY OF COURSE TO WORK
00:03:25.93\00:03:30.31
WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH AS A
REGIONAL DIRECTOR FOR SOUTH
INDIA AND SRI LANKA.
00:03:30.34\00:03:36.31
AND THAT'S JUST BEEN FOR
THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS NOW.
00:03:36.34\00:03:38.75
FOUR YEARS NOW.
00:03:38.78\00:03:39.75
WONDERFUL.
00:03:39.78\00:03:41.32
WELL I'M REALLY GLAD THAT YOU'RE
HERE AND WE JUST WANT TO WELCOME
00:03:41.35\00:03:46.05
YOU TO THE PROGRAM.
00:03:46.09\00:03:47.06
THANK YOU.
00:03:47.09\00:03:48.59
AND THANK YOU ESPECIALLY FOR
YOUR MINISTRY THAT YOU AND YOUR
00:03:48.62\00:03:51.86
WIFE HAVE GIVEN, THE TIME YOU
GIVE IN YOUR RETIREMENT YEARS TO
00:03:51.89\00:03:55.83
GOSPEL OUTREACH. THAT'S RIGHT.
00:03:55.86\00:03:56.73
AND YOU HAVEN'T
LOOKED BACK I TAKE IT.
00:03:56.77\00:03:58.83
NO I HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK AND I
TELL YOU IT'S A LOT BETTER
WORKING WITH GOSPEL
00:03:58.87\00:04:01.47
OUTREACH THAN IT IS SITTING
AT HOME WATCHING TELEVISION OR
00:04:01.50\00:04:04.27
SOMETHING ELSE, JUST
FIDDLING YOUR TIME AWAY.
00:04:04.31\00:04:06.27
THAT SEEMS KIND OF BORING
DOESN'T IT TO BE ON THE ROCKING
00:04:06.31\00:04:09.48
CHAIR ON THE FRONT PORCH.
00:04:09.51\00:04:10.48
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:04:10.51\00:04:11.51
THIS WAY YOU'RE OUT AND
ABOUT, YOU'RE TRAVELING.
00:04:11.55\00:04:13.48
WHAT AREAS DO YOU KIND OF
LOOK AFTER FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH?
00:04:13.52\00:04:17.79
I LOOK AFTER SOUTH INDIA ALL THE
WAY FROM GOA, ALL THE WAY SOUTH.
00:04:17.82\00:04:22.29
GOA IS ABOUT A THIRD OF
THE WAY UP THE INDIA CONTINENT.
00:04:22.32\00:04:27.50
THEN WE HAVE
EVERYTHING FROM THERE SOUTH.
00:04:27.50\00:04:29.93
SO THAT'S MY TERRITORY IN INDIA
AND THEN THEY SAID OH WE'D LIKE
00:04:29.96\00:04:33.34
TO HAVE YOU TAKE SRI LANKA ALSO
BECAUSE IT'S JUST ACROSS THE
OCEAN THERE, IT'S JUST
00:04:33.37\00:04:36.81
A SHORT HOP OVER TO SRI LANKA
SO WE'RE DOING THAT AS WELL.
00:04:36.84\00:04:40.51
OK, SO YOU HAVE PRETTY MUCH
SOUTH INDIA AND ON DOWN TO SRI
00:04:40.54\00:04:44.41
LANKA THEN. YES
AND OVER TO SRI LANKA.
00:04:44.45\00:04:46.01
WE HAVE ALL THE
WAY DOWN TO TRIVANDRUM.
00:04:46.05\00:04:48.72
OK, WELL YES THEY ARE ALL
BEAUTIFUL PARTS OF THE WORLD
00:04:48.75\00:04:52.02
AREN'T THEY.
BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL PEOPLE.
00:04:52.05\00:04:53.02
WONDERFUL PEOPLE
YOU'VE DISCOVERED I'M SURE.
00:04:53.05\00:04:56.32
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:04:56.36\00:04:57.69
WELL I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU JUST
HAVE RETURNED RECENTLY FROM SOME
00:04:57.73\00:05:02.53
MEETINGS IN SOUTH INDIA.
00:05:02.56\00:05:03.73
YES, THAT'S TRUE.
00:05:03.77\00:05:05.20
I KNOW WE WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT
AND I UNDERSTAND YOU EVEN HAVE
00:05:05.23\00:05:08.00
SOME VIDEO FOR US.
00:05:08.04\00:05:09.00
YES, I HAVE A LITTLE VIDEO.
00:05:09.04\00:05:10.27
WE CAN SHOW SOME VIDEO CLIPS
HERE AND THERE AS WE GO ALONG.
00:05:10.31\00:05:12.27
THAT WOULD BE VERY INTERESTING.
00:05:12.31\00:05:14.11
A YEAR AGO WHEN I WAS THERE
I ASKED THE MISSION PRESIDENTS
00:05:14.14\00:05:19.11
WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP
THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS.
00:05:19.15\00:05:21.62
WHAT WOULD BE MOST EFFECTIVE
AND THEY SAID WE'D LIKE TO HAVE
00:05:21.65\00:05:25.42
TRAINING SESSIONS BECAUSE THESE
WORKERS ONLY HAVE MAYBE SIX,
EIGHT, TEN GRADES OF
00:05:25.45\00:05:31.13
EDUCATION AND THEY ARE NOT
HIGHLY TRAINED SO THEY ASKED FOR
00:05:31.16\00:05:34.73
TRAINING. SO MY WIFE AND
I DECIDED YES WE'LL GO FOR
00:05:34.73\00:05:37.93
TRAINING SESSIONS. I
SAID HOW LONG SHOULD THIS BE.
00:05:37.97\00:05:40.34
THEY SAID THREE
DAYS WOULD BE IDEAL.
00:05:40.37\00:05:42.37
SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.
00:05:42.40\00:05:44.14
THEY WANT A
TRAINING IN CHEMISTRY?
00:05:44.17\00:05:46.14
NO NOT CHEMISTRY.
00:05:46.17\00:05:47.28
OH NOT CHEMISTRY.
00:05:47.31\00:05:48.28
BUT YOU'RE A CHEMISTRY TEACHER.
00:05:48.31\00:05:54.62
I'M OUT OF MY ELEMENT.
00:05:54.65\00:05:57.15
OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT.
00:05:57.19\00:05:59.75
OUT OF MY ELEMENT.
00:05:59.79\00:06:02.12
SO WE GAVE LECTURES ON
THE 28 FUNDAMENTAL DOCTRINES.
00:06:02.16\00:06:04.13
OK.
00:06:04.16\00:06:05.63
SO THAT WAS WHAT WE DID AND THEN
WE ALSO INVOLVED NOT ONLY MYSELF
00:06:05.66\00:06:07.30
AND MY WIFE.
00:06:07.36\00:06:08.83
MY WIFE GAVE A COUPLE OF
LECTURES AND SHE USED SOME POWER
00:06:08.86\00:06:13.57
POINTS FROM SHARE
HIM THAT WERE VERY GOOD.
00:06:13.60\00:06:14.57
AND I DEVELOPED
MY OWN POWER POINTS.
00:06:14.60\00:06:16.74
THEN WE HAD THE MISSION
PRESIDENTS GIVE ONE OR TWO
00:06:16.77\00:06:20.84
LECTURES EACH. AND THE DIVISION
MAN, PASTOR ANTONI --- HE
ACCOMPANIED US AND GAVE
00:06:20.88\00:06:24.18
SEVERAL LECTURES.
00:06:24.21\00:06:25.38
SO THE COMPOSITE WAS A TRAINING
SESSION FOR THE WORKERS.
00:06:25.41\00:06:27.78
SO IT WAS SOME GENERAL TRAINING
TO HELP THEM IN LEADING PEOPLE
00:06:27.82\00:06:32.82
TO KNOW JESUS BETTER, TO HELP
PEOPLE LEARN HOW TO CHANGE THEIR
00:06:32.85\00:06:37.16
WORLD VIEW. THAT'S RIGHT.
00:06:37.19\00:06:38.69
AND HOW TO CONVERT MUSLIMS AND
HINDU BECAUSE REALLY IT'S THE
00:06:38.73\00:06:42.86
MUSLIM AND HINDU CULTURE.
00:06:42.90\00:06:43.97
LARGELY HINDU BUT THERE
ARE A LOT OF MUSLIM THERE.
00:06:44.00\00:06:46.00
BUT THIS IS NOT SO MUCH
OF A CHRISTIAN AREA OF INDIA.
00:06:46.03\00:06:48.40
IT'S NOT CHRISTIAN.
00:06:48.44\00:06:50.01
ALTHOUGH SOUTH INDIA IS A LITTLE
MORE CHRISTIAN THAN SOME OF THE
00:06:50.04\00:06:53.31
OTHERS BECAUSE THE APOSTLE
THOMAS, THE SO CALLED DOUBTING
THOMAS, WAS IN INDIA FOR A
00:06:53.34\00:06:58.85
NUMBER OF YEARS.
00:06:58.88\00:06:59.75
HE WAS ACTUALLY
ASSASSINATED IN INDIA.
00:06:59.78\00:07:02.12
HE GAVE HIS LIFE THERE AND HE
PLANTED THE SEED OF THE GOSPEL
00:07:02.15\00:07:06.32
MINISTRY. SO SOMEHOW EVEN THOUGH
HE WAS A DOUBTER HE OVERCAME HIS
DOUBTS AND HE BECAME A
00:07:06.35\00:07:11.43
REAL APOSTLE.
00:07:13.46\00:07:14.66
A REAL MISSIONARY FOR THE LORD.
00:07:14.73\00:07:16.20
HE DID.
00:07:16.23\00:07:17.20
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:07:17.23\00:07:18.23
WELL THAT'S WHAT
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS ALL ABOUT.
00:07:18.27\00:07:20.20
WE SEND PEOPLE OUT
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
00:07:20.24\00:07:22.20
A COUPLE OF THOUSAND OR MORE
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS ARE NOW
00:07:22.24\00:07:27.51
SERVING AROUND THE WORLD AND
YOUR JOB IS TO GIVE THEM OVER
00:07:27.54\00:07:34.28
SIGHTED GUIDANCE, ENCOURAGEMENT
AND JUST WORK WITH THEM.
00:07:34.32\00:07:37.25
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:07:37.29\00:07:38.25
WHAT A GREAT JOB.
00:07:38.29\00:07:39.25
IT'S A WONDERFUL THING ISN'T IT.
00:07:39.29\00:07:41.26
IT'S A WONDERFUL THING BECAUSE
I CAN'T SPEAK THE LANGUAGE BUT
00:07:41.29\00:07:43.89
THEY SPEAK THE LANGUAGE, THEY
KNOW THE CULTURE, THEY KNOW THE
00:07:43.93\00:07:48.10
PEOPLE. THEY CAN BE
EFFECTIVE FROM DAY ONE.
00:07:48.13\00:07:50.10
FOR ME I'D HAVE TO SPEND SIX
MONTHS OR A YEAR LEARNING THE
00:07:50.13\00:07:52.83
LANGUAGE. HOW
ABOUT SIX YEARS PROBABLY.
00:07:52.87\00:07:54.44
SIX YEARS.
00:07:54.47\00:07:55.44
IT WOULD TAKE US
FOREVER WOULDN'T IT.
00:07:55.47\00:07:57.57
RIGHT.
00:07:57.61\00:07:58.57
IT WOULD TAKE ME A LONG TIME.
00:07:58.61\00:07:59.54
SURE.
00:07:59.57\00:08:00.61
BUT THEY ARE
EFFECTIVE RIGHT AWAY.
00:08:00.64\00:08:02.61
THEY ARE.
00:08:02.64\00:08:03.61
AND THAT'S THE WONDERFUL THING.
00:08:03.65\00:08:05.05
GOSPEL OUTREACH SUPPORTS THOSE
NATIVE EVANGELISTS AND THEIR JOB
00:08:05.08\00:08:06.68
IS TO DO EVANGELISM.
00:08:06.72\00:08:07.75
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:08:07.78\00:08:08.98
WELL SPEAKING OF EVANGELISM,
YOU HAD MEETINGS DOWN THERE.
00:08:09.02\00:08:12.19
RIGHT.
00:08:12.22\00:08:13.19
TELL US ABOUT IT.
00:08:13.22\00:08:14.19
OK.
00:08:14.22\00:08:15.19
I WANT TO SEE YOUR PICTURES.
00:08:15.22\00:08:16.26
WE HAD-WELL, WE WILL
SHOW THE PICTURES IN A MINUTE.
00:08:16.29\00:08:18.16
I'D JUST LIKE TO SAY A
LITTLE BIT IN ADVANCE HERE.
00:08:18.19\00:08:20.16
I'M ANXIOUS.
00:08:20.20\00:08:21.33
WE HAD A SERIES OF MEETINGS
FOR THREE DAYS EACH WEEK.
00:08:21.36\00:08:23.57
WE HAD THREE WEEKS.
00:08:23.60\00:08:25.33
WELL THE FIRST WEEK THE SPEAKERS
WERE IN KANNADA LANGUAGE.
00:08:25.37\00:08:29.87
THE NEXT WE HAD-NOW THAT'S LIKE
THEY SPEAK ENGLISH AND FRENCH IN
00:08:29.90\00:08:34.58
CANADA RIGHT?
00:08:34.61\00:08:35.58
IT'S SPELLED WITH A "K."
00:08:35.61\00:08:36.98
OH SORRY.
00:08:37.01\00:08:37.98
IT'S DIFFERENT.
00:08:38.01\00:08:38.91
DIFFERENT
LANGUAGE, DIFFERENT LANGUAGE.
00:08:38.95\00:08:40.98
I DON'T SPEAK KANNADA
AND NEITHER DID MY DIVISION
00:08:41.02\00:08:42.98
REPRESENTATIVE. SO HE HAD TO
BE TRANSLATED AND I HAD TO BE
00:08:43.02\00:08:47.22
TRANSLATED. THE
LANGUAGES ARE A BIG CHALLENGE.
00:08:47.26\00:08:49.46
THE SECOND SET OF
LANGUAGE WAS MALAYALAM .
00:08:49.49\00:08:51.69
WE HAD A SET OF
READINGS IN MALAYALAM .
00:08:51.73\00:08:53.80
AND THE THIRD SET WAS IN TAMIL .
00:08:53.83\00:08:56.43
WE HAD THREE SETS OF MEETINGS
AND THE WORKERS CAME IN.
00:08:56.46\00:09:00.80
DID YOU HAVE ANY MEETINGS WHERE
THEY WERE ALL HAPPENING TOGETHER
00:09:00.84\00:09:05.57
AND YOU HAD FOUR DIFFERENT
LANGUAGES GOING ON AT ONCE?
00:09:05.61\00:09:08.24
NO.
00:09:08.28\00:09:09.24
THAT WOULD BE PRETTY TOUGH.
00:09:09.28\00:09:10.41
THAT WOULD BE OVER POWERING YES.
00:09:10.45\00:09:12.58
ANYWAY, WE ARRIVED IN BANGALORE
AND THE FIRST THING WAS WE TOOK
00:09:12.61\00:09:17.32
THE TRAIN.
00:09:17.35\00:09:18.85
THERE'S A FEW PICTURES OF THE
TRAIN HERE AND THE TRAIN STATION
00:09:18.89\00:09:23.12
SO WE'LL LET THE VIDEO RUN.
00:09:23.16\00:09:24.39
I WAS OVERWHELMED BY THE
NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN INDIA.
00:09:24.43\00:09:26.96
IT'S JUST PEOPLE, PEOPLE
EVERYWHERE, CROWDS OF PEOPLE.
00:09:27.00\00:09:31.13
AND HERE WE'RE
WAITING FOR THE TRAIN.
00:09:31.17\00:09:33.13
YOU CAN SEE IT WAS
EARLY IN THE MORNING.
00:09:33.17\00:09:35.14
WE'RE ON THE TRAIN.
00:09:35.17\00:09:36.64
HERE WE'RE ON THE TRAIN GOING
DOWN TO THE CITY OF ERODE WHERE
00:09:36.67\00:09:39.11
THE MEETINGS WERE TO BE HELD.
00:09:39.14\00:09:40.04
THE ADVENTIST
CHURCH HAS A CENTER THERE.
00:09:40.08\00:09:43.18
THERE ARE THE
GATES TO THE CENTER.
00:09:43.21\00:09:45.18
YOU CAN SEE THERE
ARE BUILDINGS BEHIND.
00:09:45.21\00:09:47.18
THIS WAS ORIGINALLY ESTABLISHED
AS AN EVANGELISTIC CENTER TO
00:09:47.22\00:09:51.82
TRAIN MINISTERS.
00:09:51.85\00:09:53.39
BUT IT TURNED OUT THAT NOT
TOO MANY MINISTERS WERE TAKING
00:09:53.42\00:09:56.42
ADVANTAGE OF IT. IT WAS GIVEN TO
THE EAST INDIA UNION AND THEY
HAVE MADE IT AS A RETREAT
00:09:56.46\00:10:03.16
CENTER AND THEY HAVE
TRAINING SESSIONS THERE.
00:10:03.20\00:10:05.17
SO WE WERE ABLE TO ACTUALLY
CONTRACT THIS FOR THREE WEEKS TO
00:10:05.20\00:10:09.84
HAVE THE WORKERS COME IN.
00:10:09.87\00:10:10.84
HERE'S A SHOT OF THE CAMPUS.
00:10:10.87\00:10:12.27
SO YOU COULD BRING YOUR
WORKERS RIGHT INTO THIS PLACE.
00:10:12.31\00:10:14.34
WE BROUGHT THEM FROM ALL PARTS
OF INDIA IN MY TERRITORY ALL
00:10:14.38\00:10:18.45
THERE. AND THIS WAS THE CHURCH.
00:10:18.48\00:10:20.12
THIS IS THE ELLEN
WHITE CHURCH BLOCK.
00:10:20.15\00:10:25.12
AND THERE'S THE
JAMES WHITE BLOCK.
00:10:25.15\00:10:27.12
THEY'VE NAMED
THEM AFTER THE WHITES.
00:10:27.16\00:10:29.12
THIS IS THE JAMES WHITE HOSTEL.
00:10:29.16\00:10:31.06
THE MEN STAYED ON THE LEFT THE
WOMEN STAYED ON THE RIGHT HAND
00:10:31.09\00:10:34.56
SIDE HERE. THAT
WAS THE CHURCH BLOCK.
00:10:34.56\00:10:36.60
THAT WAS YOUR LODGING.
00:10:36.63\00:10:38.63
RIGHT.
00:10:38.67\00:10:40.07
NOW OUTSIDE, THEN WE HAD THE
MEETINGS WITH THE FIRST GROUP OF
00:10:40.10\00:10:46.34
MEETINGS. HERE THE SPEAKER
WAS SPEAKING TO THE WORKERS.
00:10:46.37\00:10:51.11
THIS WAS THE FIRST SET.
00:10:51.15\00:10:52.28
THIS WAS THE KANNADA
LANGUAGE WHERE HE IS SPEAKING.
00:10:52.31\00:10:54.35
AND THESE WERE THE WORKERS WHO
CAME IN THAT SPOKE THE KANNADA
00:10:54.38\00:10:59.72
LANGUAGE SO THIS
WAS THE TRAINING.
00:10:59.75\00:11:00.92
THIS WAS THE TRAINING GOING ON.
00:11:00.96\00:11:02.32
SO THEY ARE ALL HERE,
THEY BROUGHT THEIR NOTEBOOKS.
00:11:02.36\00:11:04.66
WE ACTUALLY GAVE THEM BAGS AND
NOTEBOOKS AND PENCILS SO THEY
00:11:04.69\00:11:08.73
COULD TAKE NOTES AND TAKE BACK
SOME INSTRUCTIONS WITH THEM TO
00:11:08.76\00:11:12.00
THE FIELD. THEN AFTER THE FIRST
SET OF MEETINGS THEN THE SECOND
00:11:12.03\00:11:17.24
SET OF MEETINGS WENT ON.
00:11:17.27\00:11:18.64
THE SITE HAD BEEN AN
AGRICULTURAL SITE BEFORE AND
00:11:18.67\00:11:24.71
THEY HAVE ABOUT 14 ACRES OF LAND
THERE AND THEY PLANTED THAT TO
00:11:24.75\00:11:29.35
RICE. AND THE RICE HARVESTING
SEASON WAS ON WHILE WE WERE
THERE SO I FOUND OUT
00:11:29.38\00:11:34.16
THAT THE MANAGER FOR THE WHOLE
CENTER HAD CONTRACTED WITH THE
00:11:34.19\00:11:39.29
COMBINE TO COME IN
AND HARVEST THE RICE.
00:11:39.33\00:11:43.03
SO THE HARVESTING WAS GOING ON
AND SO I WAS CURIOUS ABOUT THIS
00:11:43.06\00:11:47.97
SO WHEN WE WEREN'T IN THE
MEETING I GOT A FEW PICTURES OF
THE RICE HARVESTING.
00:11:48.00\00:11:51.57
SO YOU HAVE A LITTLE
BIT OF FARM BOY IN YOU?
00:11:51.61\00:11:54.48
I GREW UP ON THE COLLEGE FARM AT
IMMANUEL MISSIONARY COLLEGE IN
00:11:54.51\00:11:57.51
THOSE DAYS AND I WAS ALWAYS
INTERESTED IN FARMING BUT NEVER
00:11:57.55\00:12:00.08
REALLY DID IT MYSELF
BUT I WAS INTERESTED.
00:12:00.12\00:12:02.18
NEVER QUITE TOOK THE
FARM OUT OF THE FARM BOY.
00:12:02.22\00:12:04.19
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:12:04.22\00:12:05.69
I ASKED THEM, I SAID YOU KNOW
IS THIS ECONOMICAL TO BRING THIS
00:12:05.72\00:12:08.26
EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT BECAUSE
YOU CAN GET LABOR SO CHEAP HERE.
00:12:08.29\00:12:10.93
HE SAID YOU KNOW ACTUALLY IT
COSTS LESS TO HIRE THIS DONE AND
00:12:10.96\00:12:16.13
TO HAVE THE MECHANIZED EQUIPMENT
THAN TO HIRE ALL THE LABORERS.
00:12:16.16\00:12:18.53
AND THAT WAY THEY GET THE
HARVEST DONE IN A HURRY AND IT
00:12:18.57\00:12:22.27
ALL GOES ON SMOOTHLY.
00:12:22.30\00:12:23.27
SO THAT WENT ON THEN.
00:12:23.30\00:12:25.97
SO WHEN WE FINISHED THAT THEN
THE NEXT GROUP OF WORKERS THAT
00:12:26.01\00:12:30.11
CAME IN WERE THE ONES WHO WERE
SPEAKING THE TAMIL LANGUAGE.
00:12:30.15\00:12:33.15
I SKIPPED THE OTHER ONES.
00:12:33.18\00:12:35.82
HERE THEY WERE SINGING.
00:12:35.85\00:12:39.22
THAT'S SORT OF A MAJORITY
GROUP ISN'T IT THE TAMIL.
00:12:39.25\00:12:41.76
YES.
00:12:41.79\00:12:43.26
THEY WERE THE LARGEST GROUP SO
THERE WERE ABOUT 95 OF THEM THAT
00:12:43.29\00:12:45.46
WERE IN FOR THIS SET.
00:12:45.49\00:12:46.46
THEY ARE ENTHUSIASTIC SINGERS.
00:12:46.49\00:12:48.03
THEY CLAP THEIR HANDS AND THEY
JUST SING LUSTILY AND YOU JUST
00:12:48.06\00:12:52.37
CAN'T HELP BUT BE
INSPIRED BY THE WORKERS.
00:12:52.40\00:12:53.90
ABSOLUTELY.
00:12:53.94\00:12:54.90
THEY ARE AN INSPIRING BUNCH.
00:12:54.94\00:12:56.24
THEY ARE.
00:12:56.27\00:12:57.77
SO IT INSPIRED ME AND I HOPE
THAT WE WERE ABLE TO INSPIRE
00:12:57.81\00:13:00.68
THEM A LITTLE BIT
TOO AT THE SAME TIME.
00:13:00.71\00:13:01.64
WELL I'M SURE YOU
WERE, I'M SURE YOU WERE.
00:13:01.68\00:13:03.68
IT'S A GOOD TIME TO
JUST TAKE A SHORT BREAK.
00:13:03.71\00:13:05.68
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM OUR GOSPEL
OUTREACH OFFICE RIGHT NOW.
00:13:05.71\00:13:12.09
WE'VE GOT A SHORT TAPE
WE'D LIKE TO PLAY FOR YOU.
00:13:12.12\00:13:14.49
I NEED TO SPREAD
THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME.
00:13:14.52\00:13:19.89
WHERE IS THE
10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY?
00:13:19.93\00:13:23.63
THOSE PEOPLE LIVE TOO FAR AWAY.
00:13:23.67\00:13:26.17
SOMEONE ELSE CAN
TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS.
00:13:26.20\00:13:28.80
MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV.
00:13:28.84\00:13:31.67
NEARLY THREE
BILLION PEOPLE TO REACH.
00:13:31.71\00:13:34.58
MY HEAD HURTS.
00:13:34.61\00:13:36.01
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO.
00:13:36.04\00:13:38.41
I GIVE UP.
00:13:38.45\00:13:39.85
WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING?
00:13:39.88\00:13:42.25
I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:13:42.28\00:13:44.65
ACTUALLY YOU CAN
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:13:44.69\00:13:47.52
AND JESUS ASKED YOU
TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:13:47.56\00:13:52.33
WHERE?
00:13:52.36\00:13:53.33
ALL THE WORLD.
00:13:53.36\00:13:54.46
HOW CAN I GO, I
HAVE COMMITMENTS.
00:13:54.50\00:13:56.67
YOU CAN PRAY.
00:13:56.70\00:13:58.77
YOU CAN VOLUNTEER YOUR TALENTS.
00:13:58.80\00:14:03.74
YOU CAN TELL OTHERS.
00:14:03.77\00:14:07.78
YOU CAN GIVE MONEY TO
SPONSOR BIBLE WORKERS.
00:14:07.81\00:14:10.61
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE
SEARCHING FOR HOPE AND MEANING.
00:14:10.65\00:14:13.55
BUT THEY WON'T
FIND IT WITHOUT YOU.
00:14:13.58\00:14:15.75
BE THE SPARK.
00:14:15.78\00:14:17.22
LIGHT THE FIRE.
00:14:17.25\00:14:19.19
FINISH THE WORK.
00:14:19.22\00:14:21.86
FINISH THE WORK.
00:14:21.89\00:14:24.53
BE THE SPARK.
00:14:24.56\00:14:27.20
WELCOME BACK TO
ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS.
00:14:27.23\00:14:32.63
GLAD YOU'RE HERE WITH US AND
ESPECIALLY I'M PLEASE TO HAVE
00:14:32.67\00:14:39.01
DON HALENZ HERE A FORMER
CHEMISTRY PROFESSOR AND SCHOOL
ADMINISTRATOR WHO IS WORKING
00:14:39.04\00:14:44.28
WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:14:44.31\00:14:45.31
WELCOME AGAIN.
00:14:45.35\00:14:46.31
THANK YOU.
00:14:46.35\00:14:47.32
GLAD YOU'RE HERE.
00:14:47.35\00:14:48.55
I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE
BEEN WORKING IN SOUTH INDIA.
00:14:48.58\00:14:51.29
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:14:51.32\00:14:52.75
AND SRI LANKA BUT ESPECIALLY
RIGHT NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
00:14:52.79\00:14:56.36
SOUTH INDIA. YOU'VE JUST TOLD US
ABOUT THE TRAINING PROGRAM FOR
THREE LANGUAGE GROUPS AT
00:14:56.39\00:15:02.76
THE CENTER.
00:15:02.80\00:15:04.27
NOW THAT'S DONE AND NOW WE'RE
GOING TO GO AND SEE SOME FOOTAGE
00:15:04.30\00:15:08.40
OF THE MEETINGS THEMSELVES.
00:15:08.44\00:15:09.94
WELL FROM THE MEETINGS HERE
WE'VE MOVED NOW TO AN INTERVIEW
00:15:09.97\00:15:15.51
WITH A GOSPEL OUTREACH
WORKER SITTING ON THE LEFT.
00:15:15.54\00:15:18.18
THIS LADY HAD A
SON AND A HUSBAND.
00:15:18.21\00:15:21.85
THEY WERE FAITHFUL HINDUS.
00:15:21.88\00:15:23.65
THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY TO A
PILGRIMAGE WHEN THE BUS HAD A
SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND
00:15:23.69\00:15:28.99
THE HUSBAND AND THE
SON WERE BOTH KILLED.
00:15:29.02\00:15:31.33
A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
00:15:31.36\00:15:33.56
WELL THE LADY DECIDED OUR GODS
ARE NOT DOING ANY GOOD AND SO
00:15:33.60\00:15:38.37
THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
WORKER CONTACTED HER.
00:15:38.40\00:15:39.83
SHE BEGAN TO TAKE BIBLE STUDIES,
WAS BAPTIZED AND NOW IS A
00:15:39.87\00:15:44.64
FAITHFUL SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST.
00:15:44.67\00:15:46.14
SO THAT CAME ABOUT FROM
A TRAGEDY IN THE FAMILY.
00:15:46.17\00:15:49.28
WELL CERTAINLY NOBODY WANTS
TO BLAME GOD FOR THESE KINDS OF
00:15:49.31\00:15:54.52
THINGS BUT GOD SOMEHOW USED A
VERY DIFFICULT SITUATION IN
THEIR LIVES AND THAT
00:15:54.55\00:15:59.79
BECAME A TIME WHEN THEY WERE
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING, LOOKING
00:15:59.82\00:16:03.36
FOR HOPE AND THEY FOUND HOPE.
00:16:03.39\00:16:05.13
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:16:05.16\00:16:06.16
THROUGH JESUS.
00:16:06.19\00:16:07.13
AMEN.
00:16:07.20\00:16:08.13
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:16:08.16\00:16:09.60
WE HAVE ANOTHER LITTLE PIECE OF
VIDEO HERE I THINK STARTING UP
00:16:09.63\00:16:12.47
IN JUST A MOMENT.
00:16:12.50\00:16:13.74
THIS WAS A SABBATH AND MY
WIFE AND I WENT TO CHURCH THERE.
00:16:13.77\00:16:16.30
WE TOOK THE LOCAL TRANSPORTATION
THE TUK-TUK OR THREE WHEELER.
00:16:16.34\00:16:20.18
THIS IS THE
LIMOUSINE SERVICE I SEE.
00:16:20.21\00:16:22.18
THE LIMOUSINE SERVICE.
00:16:22.21\00:16:23.78
I HAVE A FEW SHOTS HERE OF GOING
TO THE CHURCH RIDING THROUGH THE
00:16:23.81\00:16:27.08
CITY SO YOU GET AN IDEA OF WHAT
THE INDIAN POPULATION LOOKS
LIKE, WHAT THE CITY LOOKS
00:16:27.12\00:16:31.29
LIKE.
00:16:31.32\00:16:32.89
TRAFFIC LOOKS LIKE IT'S A BIT
CHAOTIC BUT ACTUALLY IT'S
ORGANIZED IN A SENSE.
00:16:32.92\00:16:36.96
I DIDN'T SEE ANY ACCIDENTS.
00:16:36.99\00:16:39.13
YOU GET USED TO IT ANYWAY.
00:16:39.16\00:16:40.50
YOU GET USED TO IT.
00:16:40.53\00:16:41.46
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:16:41.50\00:16:42.96
THEN WE ARRIVED AT THE CHURCH
AND THERE WAS A YOUNG FELLOW
00:16:43.00\00:16:45.83
THERE WHO WAS
LEADING OUT IN THE CHURCH.
00:16:45.87\00:16:47.20
THERE'S A SIGN
HERE THAT COMES UP.
00:16:47.24\00:16:49.20
YOU'LL KNOW IT'S AN ADVENTIST
CHURCH BECAUSE THEY HAD THE
00:16:49.24\00:16:52.11
STATUE OUT IN FRONT.
00:16:52.14\00:16:53.04
YOU'LL SEE A
PICTURE OF THAT IN A MINUTE.
00:16:53.07\00:16:55.11
I SHOULD JUST TELL OUR WATCHERS
HERE NOT TO WORRY THAT WE'RE
00:16:55.14\00:16:59.11
DRIVING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF
THE ROAD BECAUSE WE'RE IN INDIA.
00:16:59.15\00:17:01.18
WE'RE IN INDIA.
00:17:01.22\00:17:02.35
SO IT'S OK, DRIVING ON THE
LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD.
00:17:02.38\00:17:04.62
BUT ANYWAY, WE GOT THERE SAFELY
AFTER A FEW MINUTES AND I JUST
00:17:04.65\00:17:09.49
PUT A FEW MINUTES, A
LITTLE BIT OF VIDEO IN HERE.
00:17:09.52\00:17:11.93
AT THE CHURCH WE WERE WELCOMED.
00:17:11.96\00:17:14.36
THIS IS THE CHURCH HERE
AND THERE WAS A YOUNG FELLOW IN
00:17:14.36\00:17:17.77
THERE. I SEE THE POSTER THERE.
00:17:17.80\00:17:19.23
YES SO YOU KNOW IT'S AN
ADVENTIST CHURCH WITH THE
00:17:19.27\00:17:23.24
ANIMALS AND SO ON. THESE YOUNG
FELLOWS WERE WELCOMING US TO THE
00:17:23.27\00:17:26.31
MEETINGS. AFTER THE CHURCH I
DIDN'T TAKE ANY OTHER VIDEO
HERE, BUT WE WENT OUT TO VISIT
00:17:26.34\00:17:30.45
ANOTHER CHURCH WHICH WAS
ACTUALLY BUILT BY GOSPEL
OUTREACH A NUMBER OF YEARS
00:17:30.48\00:17:36.79
AGO.
00:17:36.82\00:17:37.75
THIS CHURCH HAS SORT
OF AN UNUSUAL HISTORY.
00:17:37.79\00:17:40.62
THERE'S A SIGN OF THE CHURCH
THAT COMES UP IN A MINUTE BUT
00:17:40.66\00:17:45.43
I'LL TELL YOU
ABOUT IT IN ADVANCE.
00:17:45.46\00:17:46.43
SURE.
00:17:46.46\00:17:47.96
AS WE WENT THERE THEY TOOK
US THERE BECAUSE OF THE CHAIN OF
00:17:48.00\00:17:51.47
EVENTS WHICH LED TO
A NUMBER OF BAPTISMS.
00:17:51.50\00:17:53.60
THERE WAS A MAN BY THE NAME
OF EDWARD PETER WHO HAD BEEN
00:17:53.64\00:17:58.07
WATCHING THE TELEVISION AND HAD
SEEN ABOUT THE SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTISTS THROUGH THE
00:17:58.11\00:18:01.68
PREACHING OF AN
ADVENTIST MINISTER.
00:18:01.71\00:18:03.68
OK.
00:18:03.71\00:18:05.11
THEN HE BECAME CONVINCED THAT
THIS WAS SOMETHING HE SHOULD
00:18:05.15\00:18:08.25
LOOK INTO. JUST FROM WATCHING
TELEVISION AND HEARING THIS
00:18:08.28\00:18:10.85
MINISTER. THAT'S RIGHT.
00:18:10.89\00:18:12.12
AND THIS MAN EDWARD
PETER WAS AN EDUCATED MAN.
00:18:12.15\00:18:15.52
HE HAS A PHD IN CHEMICAL
ENGINEERING AND HE HAD A CLOSE
FRIEND WHO WAS NAMED
00:18:15.56\00:18:20.53
JOHN EDWARD AND HE HAD A MASTERS
DEGREE IN BIO CHEMISTRY WHICH
00:18:20.56\00:18:24.13
WAS MY AREA OF SPECIALIZATION.
00:18:24.17\00:18:25.67
THIS IS MR. PETER HERE, THE PHD,
AND HE AND HIS FRIEND BECAME
00:18:25.70\00:18:30.47
CONVERTED THEN FROM THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKER, BECAME BAPTIZED
00:18:33.61\00:18:37.95
AND THEN THEY BEGAN
STUDYING WITH THEIR WIVES.
00:18:37.98\00:18:39.95
THE WIVES WERE RESISTANT BUT
THEY HAVE NOW ACCEPTED THE FAITH
00:18:39.98\00:18:43.25
AND THEY ARE JOINING THE CHURCH.
00:18:43.28\00:18:44.69
FROM THIS MAN THEN THE STORY
WENT TO ANOTHER FAMILY AND THEY
00:18:44.72\00:18:49.36
ACCEPTED THE CHURCH AS WELL AND
ANOTHER FAMILY AND SO THREE OR
00:18:51.79\00:18:55.30
FOUR FAMILIES JOINED FROM THIS
ONE FAMILY, THE WORD JUST GOING
00:18:55.33\00:18:58.33
OUT. SO HOW INTERESTING THAT
YOU MET SOMEBODY FROM YOUR OWN
00:18:58.37\00:19:01.17
PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND.
00:19:01.20\00:19:02.17
THAT'S RIGHT, RIGHT THERE.
00:19:02.20\00:19:03.17
AND HE IS A
FAITHFUL CHURCH MEMBER.
00:19:03.20\00:19:05.17
SURE.
00:19:05.21\00:19:06.71
NOW WE'RE GOING OUT IN THE FIELD
WITH A MAN WHO HAD A RATHER
00:19:06.74\00:19:11.01
UNUSUAL STORY. THIS MAN WAS A
YOUNGSTER AND HE WAS OUT IN THE
FIELDS ONE NIGHT GUARDING
00:19:11.05\00:19:17.55
THE RICE HARVEST BECAUSE THEY
DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE THE RICE
00:19:17.59\00:19:21.49
STOLEN. A LIGHTED BEING CAME TO
HIM AND IT APPARENTLY WAS AN
EVIL SPIRIT AND IT GOT
00:19:21.52\00:19:27.56
INTO THIS FELLOW'S HEART.
00:19:27.60\00:19:29.06
FOR15 YEARS HE
HAD THIS EVIL SPIRIT.
00:19:29.10\00:19:31.47
COULDN'T HOLD A JOB, COULDN'T
REMEMBER WHAT HE WAS DOING, WAS
00:19:31.50\00:19:34.67
TOTAL DISORGANIZED
AND HAVING A TOUGH TIME.
00:19:34.70\00:19:37.71
WELL ANYWAY OTHER PEOPLE
HAD PRAYED WITH HIM BUT TO NO
00:19:37.74\00:19:42.81
EFFECT. THEY
COULDN'T DO ANYTHING.
00:19:42.84\00:19:43.75
THEY COULDN'T THROW
OUT THE EVIL SPIRIT.
00:19:43.78\00:19:45.85
VARIOUS CHURCHES HAD TRIED.
00:19:45.88\00:19:47.48
FINALLY SOMEBODY SAID CALL THE
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER SEE IF HE
00:19:47.52\00:19:51.45
CAN DO ANYTHING. THIS MAN SAID
YOU NEED TO GO TO THE CHURCH AND
YOU NEED TO BE IN THE CHURCH
00:19:51.49\00:19:57.96
AND JUST BE
AWAY FROM EVERYTHING.
00:19:57.99\00:19:59.96
AND HE PRAYED FOR HIM EVERY DAY,
GAVE HIM BIBLE STUDIES AND THE
00:20:00.00\00:20:03.73
EVIL SPIRIT LEFT HIM.
00:20:03.77\00:20:05.53
SO FOR A LONG TIME HE HAD
PROBLEMS HARASSED AND BOTHERED
00:20:05.57\00:20:11.77
BY THE SPIRITS.
COULDN'T GET ALONG.
00:20:11.81\00:20:12.87
COULDN'T GET ALONG.
00:20:12.91\00:20:14.31
SO THEN THIS IS THE YOUNG MAN
WHO HAD THE EVIL SPIRIT RIGHT
00:20:14.34\00:20:16.81
HERE IN THE VIDEO.
00:20:16.85\00:20:18.31
AFTER HE BECAME CONVERTED HE
BECAME A SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST
00:20:18.35\00:20:23.92
AND HIS MOTHER DECIDED SHE
WANTED TO BECOME A SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST AS WELL SO SHE
00:20:23.95\00:20:27.92
WAS BAPTIZED.
00:20:27.96\00:20:29.66
WELL THE TWO OF THEM WERE
BAPTIZED AND THEN THE
GRANDMOTHER DECIDED SHE
00:20:29.69\00:20:35.13
SHOULD BECOME BAPTIZED AS WELL.
00:20:35.16\00:20:37.43
SO WE'LL HAVE A PICTURE HERE
IN JUST A FEW MINUTES OF THE
00:20:37.47\00:20:40.77
BAPTISM OF THE GRANDMOTHER WHO
ALSO DECIDED TO BECOME A
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST.
00:20:40.80\00:20:44.74
SO THIS YOUNG MAN LED THE MOTHER
AND THE GRANDMOTHER TO KNOW THE
00:20:44.77\00:20:48.74
TRUTH. WELL LET'S SAVE
THAT PICTURE FOR JUST A MINUTE.
00:20:48.78\00:20:50.85
YOU KNOW YOU'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT ALL THESE AMAZING THINGS
00:20:50.88\00:20:55.85
HAPPENING. FIRST OF THE
CONTACT WITH PEOPLE IN YOUR OWN
00:20:55.88\00:20:59.52
PROFESSIONAL AREA. THAT'S RIGHT.
00:20:59.55\00:21:01.82
THESE ARE SCIENCE PEOPLE.
00:21:01.86\00:21:03.49
THEY WERE.
00:21:03.53\00:21:04.99
AND YET THEIR FINDING THAT
IT CAN BE POSSIBLE FOR A SCIENCE
00:21:05.03\00:21:09.93
PERSON, THAT'S
RIGHT, TO HAVE FAITH IN GOD.
00:21:09.96\00:21:11.63
AND THIS FELLOW GOES OUT EVERY
WEEKEND, TAKES HIS SOUND SYSTEM,
00:21:11.67\00:21:15.27
HIS MICROPHONE, AND HE PREACHES
ON THE STREET TO TELL OTHERS
00:21:15.30\00:21:20.88
ABOUT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
00:21:20.91\00:21:22.24
AMAZING.
00:21:22.28\00:21:23.24
HE IS FAITHFUL AND
HE'S A GOOD TITHE PAYER.
00:21:23.28\00:21:25.25
HE WORKS FOR THE GOVERNMENT,
EARNS A GOOD INCOME, PAYS A
00:21:25.28\00:21:28.08
FAITHFUL TITHE AND WE'RE VERY
PLEASED WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING.
00:21:28.12\00:21:30.29
THAT'S ALWAYS GOOD
FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:21:30.32\00:21:32.29
GOSPEL OUTREACH NEEDS
MONEY TO KEEP RUNNING.
00:21:32.32\00:21:34.29
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:21:34.32\00:21:35.79
SO NOT ONLY DID THESE THREE MEN
COME TO FAITH IN WALKING WITH
00:21:35.82\00:21:41.63
JESUS BUT THEY ALSO TOOK
THEIR OWN FAMILIES WITH THEM.
00:21:41.66\00:21:45.17
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:21:45.20\00:21:46.17
THAT'S AN AMAZING STORY.
00:21:46.20\00:21:47.17
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:21:47.20\00:21:48.17
THE WHOLE
FAMILIES CAME TO FAITH.
00:21:48.20\00:21:50.41
AMAZING STORY.
00:21:50.44\00:21:51.44
THE WHOLE FAMILY, WONDERFUL.
00:21:51.47\00:21:53.54
WELL WE'LL GO AHEAD THEN
TO THE NEXT BAPTISM HERE.
00:21:53.58\00:21:56.28
WELL JUST BEFORE YOU GET THERE
THIS GUY WITH THE EVIL SPIRIT.
00:21:56.31\00:21:59.71
THAT'S A TOUGH ONE ISN'T IT.
00:21:59.75\00:22:02.65
THAT'S VERY TOUGH.
00:22:02.68\00:22:04.02
WE DON'T ALWAYS THINK ABOUT EVIL
SPIRITS HERE IN OUR CULTURES.
00:22:04.05\00:22:07.76
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:22:07.79\00:22:09.29
AND YET I AM SURE THAT SATAN IS
WORKING IN OUR CULTURE PROBABLY
00:22:09.32\00:22:15.80
MORE THAN ANY OTHER.
00:22:15.83\00:22:17.23
BUT WE DO SEE MORE EVIDENCE OF
THIS SOMETIMES IN SOME OF THESE
00:22:17.27\00:22:21.50
MISSION AREAS.
00:22:21.54\00:22:23.07
YOU KNOW ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
WE DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT,
00:22:23.10\00:22:27.21
WE ABSOLUTELY KNOW THAT
WE CAN PLAN AND COUNT ON GOD.
00:22:27.24\00:22:31.81
THIS BAPTISM PICTURE, TELL US.
00:22:31.85\00:22:33.35
SO THIS IS THE GRANDMOTHER OF
THIS YOUNG MAN WHO WAS POSSESSED
00:22:33.38\00:22:37.59
BY THE EVIL SPIRIT AND
DECIDED TO BE BAPTIZED.
00:22:37.62\00:22:39.59
AND THE MISSION PRESIDENT
PASTOR PAUL--- DID THE BAPTISM.
00:22:39.62\00:22:42.42
JUST A LITTLE MUDDY STREAM
REMINDS ME OF WHAT IT SAYS WHAT
THE RIVER JORDAN WAS
00:22:42.46\00:22:47.50
LIKE.
00:22:47.50\00:22:48.86
ANYWAY, AFTER THE BAPTISM WE
WENT BACK TO THIS FAMILY'S HOUSE
00:22:48.90\00:22:51.60
AND EVERYBODY WAS SORT OF
STANDING AROUND AND SAYING WE'RE
00:22:51.63\00:22:54.84
GLAD YOU WERE BAPTIZED AND MY
WIFE SAID THERE'S NO JOY,
THERE'S NO ENTHUSIASM HERE.
00:22:54.87\00:22:58.44
THE ANGELS OF HEAVEN ARE DANCING
FOR JOY BECAUSE THERE'S A NEW
00:22:58.47\00:23:02.68
SOUL JOINED THE KINGDOM.
00:23:02.71\00:23:03.95
SO SHE SAID I'VE
GOT TO DO SOMETHING.
00:23:03.98\00:23:05.95
SO SHE WENT UP
AND HUGGED THIS LADY.
00:23:05.98\00:23:07.95
WE HAVE ONE MORE VIDEO
SHOT OF MY WIFE WITH THIS LADY.
00:23:07.98\00:23:10.29
HERE SHE IS RIGHT
THERE WITH THIS LITTLE LADY.
00:23:10.32\00:23:13.05
SHE SAID THIS POOR LITTLE LADY,
SHE COULDN'T HAVE WEIGHED 97
00:23:13.09\00:23:18.46
POUNDS BUT JUST A
PRECIOUS LITTLE LADY.
00:23:18.49\00:23:19.93
AND MY WIFE WAS SO HAPPY TO WALK
WITH HER TO THE CHURCH AND I'M
00:23:19.96\00:23:23.26
GLAD THAT SHE
DECIDED TO JOIN THE CHURCH.
00:23:23.30\00:23:24.73
SO THEIR SITUATION, WHY DO YOU
THINK THEY WERE KIND OF NOT SO
00:23:24.77\00:23:29.97
JOYOUS? WAS IT BECAUSE OF THE
BACKGROUND AND BECAUSE OF THE
00:23:32.24\00:23:35.61
LONG YEARS OF FRUSTRATION
THAT THEY HAD SUFFERED?
00:23:35.64\00:23:37.61
I THINK THAT WAS
PROBABLY PART OF IT.
00:23:37.65\00:23:39.75
I DON'T KNOW.
00:23:39.78\00:23:41.22
I THINK THEY MAYBE JUST WEREN'T
AS RESPONSIVE AS WE WOULD BE IN
00:23:41.25\00:23:46.22
THIS COUNTRY.
00:23:46.25\00:23:47.22
SURE.
00:23:47.26\00:23:48.12
THEY WERE LIVING
IN A VERY RURAL AREA.
00:23:48.16\00:23:50.23
THERE WERE PICTURES THERE WE SAW
EARLIER OF DRIVING OUT THERE ON
00:23:50.26\00:23:55.33
A ROUGH BUMPY ROAD AND SO ON.
00:23:55.36\00:23:56.80
IT'S JUST AMAZING THAT SOMEBODY
FOUND THEM AND SHE FINALLY
00:23:56.83\00:24:01.17
ACCEPTED THE FAITH.
00:24:01.20\00:24:02.50
WELL SEE, THAT'S WHAT GOSPEL
OUTREACH IS ALL ABOUT ISN'T IT.
00:24:02.54\00:24:04.17
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:24:04.21\00:24:05.24
IT'S GOING OUT AND
FINDING PEOPLE WHERE THEY ARE.
00:24:05.27\00:24:07.18
SO EVEN THIS PERSON WHO WAS
DELIVERED FROM EVIL SPIRITS, ONE
00:24:07.21\00:24:12.28
OF THE THINGS THAT WE KNOW IS
THAT JESUS OVER CAME THE DEVIL.
00:24:15.65\00:24:20.66
HE OVERCAME HIM.
00:24:20.69\00:24:22.16
THE DEVIL IS A DEFEATED ENEMY
AND YET WE KNOW THAT HE STILL
00:24:22.19\00:24:27.13
GOES AROUND
TRYING TO MAKE PROBLEMS.
00:24:27.13\00:24:28.93
THE DEVIL IS ALIVE AND
WELL YET TODAY I'M SURE.
00:24:28.96\00:24:32.47
HE IS.
00:24:32.50\00:24:33.60
HE GOES AROUND MAKING
PROBLEMS FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE.
00:24:33.64\00:24:36.20
HE CAUSES SUFFERING AND IN SOME
OF THESE CASES WE WOULD CALL IT
00:24:36.24\00:24:41.61
HARASSMENT.
THAT'S RIGHT, HARASSMENT.
00:24:41.64\00:24:43.11
PEOPLE ARE JUST BEING HARASSED
AND THEY CAN'T SLEEP, THEY CAN'T
00:24:43.14\00:24:47.45
WORK, THEY CAN'T HOLD JOBS.
00:24:47.48\00:24:49.62
A LOT OF TIMES IT'S A VERY
DIFFICULT SITUATION FOR PEOPLE.
00:24:49.65\00:24:55.56
AND YET, PRAISE THE LORD, WE
KNOW THAT JESUS OVER CAME THE
00:24:55.59\00:25:00.70
DEVIL, HE OVER CAME ALL EVIL AND
WE HAVE THE GOOD NEWS TO SHARE
WITH PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
00:25:02.93\00:25:08.14
INCLUDING SOUTH INDIA RIGHT.
00:25:08.17\00:25:10.31
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:25:10.34\00:25:11.87
AND WHAT A WONDERFUL THING THAT
GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU AND YOUR WIFE
00:25:11.91\00:25:16.38
TO GO AND WORK IN
SOUTH INDIA AND SRI LANKA.
00:25:16.41\00:25:18.85
WHAT A PRIVILEGE.
00:25:18.88\00:25:20.28
WE ARE PRIVILEGED.
00:25:20.32\00:25:21.28
PRIVILEGED, THAT'S
THE ONLY WORD I COULD USE.
00:25:21.32\00:25:23.45
AND CAN YOU IMAGINE SITTING AT
YOUR HOUSE IN YOUR ROCKING CHAIR
00:25:23.49\00:25:27.12
WATCHING TELEVISION.
00:25:27.16\00:25:28.12
COMPARE THAT TO
WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
00:25:28.16\00:25:30.26
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:25:30.29\00:25:31.26
THIS IS FAR MORE EXCITING.
00:25:31.29\00:25:32.73
OUR PLANE TRIP OVER THERE IS
KIND OF HARD BUT WHEN YOU GET
00:25:32.76\00:25:36.77
THERE IT'S ALL WORTH IT AND YOU
GET BACK AND YOU CAN TELL ABOUT
00:25:36.80\00:25:39.00
THIS. IT'S WONDERFUL COMING TO
GOSPEL OUTREACH MEETINGS AND
RUBBING SHOULDERS WITH
00:25:39.03\00:25:42.70
OTHER GOSPEL OUTREACH LEADERS
HEARING THEIR STORIES, HEARING
00:25:42.74\00:25:45.97
HOW THE LORD IS SERVING.
00:25:46.01\00:25:46.98
IT'S A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.
00:25:47.01\00:25:48.34
IT IS INDEED ISN'T IT.
00:25:48.38\00:25:49.94
YOU KNOW ONE OF THE THINGS ABOUT
GOSPEL OUTREACH THAT I
ESPECIALLY LIKE, GOSPEL
00:25:49.98\00:25:55.28
OUTREACH PEOPLE ARE VOLUNTEERS.
00:25:55.32\00:25:57.85
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:25:57.89\00:25:59.25
GOSPEL OUTREACH PEOPLE-SOME OF
THEM ARE YOUNGER, MORE OF THEM
00:25:59.29\00:26:03.83
ARE OLDER AND PROBABLY THE
MAJORITY ARE RETIRED PEOPLE.
00:26:03.86\00:26:08.36
BUT WHAT THIS SAYS IS YOU DON'T
HAVE TO JUST STOP DOING ANYTHING
00:26:08.40\00:26:12.87
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE RETIRED.
00:26:12.90\00:26:13.87
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:26:13.90\00:26:15.04
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS A
WONDERFUL PLACE TO INVEST TIME.
00:26:15.07\00:26:18.61
IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE TO INVEST
TIME AND IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE
00:26:18.64\00:26:21.51
FOR PERSONS WHO WOULD WANT
TO HELP IN MISSION SERVICE TO
00:26:21.54\00:26:25.05
CONTRIBUTE. THE MONEY GOES THE
FARTHEST WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH I
00:26:25.08\00:26:28.02
FEEL. SURE, BECAUSE LAST I
CHECKED THEY'RE NOT PAYING YOU A
00:26:28.05\00:26:32.02
SALARY. NO.
00:26:32.05\00:26:33.36
SO THAT MEANS THAT WHATEVER
MONEY THERE IS CAN REALLY GO
00:26:33.39\00:26:37.93
FAR. WELL WE JUST REALLY WANT TO
SAY THANK YOU DR. HALENZ, DON.
00:26:37.96\00:26:42.50
THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
00:26:42.53\00:26:44.50
THANK YOU SO MUCH,
IT'S GOOD TO BE HERE TODAY.
00:26:44.53\00:26:47.57
AND WE JUST WANT TO SAY TO OUR
LISTENERS AND OUR VIEWERS HERE
00:26:47.60\00:26:50.27
TODAY, THANK YOU FOR WATCHING
ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS AND WE
00:26:50.31\00:26:53.94
WOULD JUST LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO
BE A PART OF SUPPORTING GOSPEL
OUTREACH WHETHER IT'S THROUGH

00:26:59.48\00:27:05.12
THE DIRECTORS HERE

00:27:05.15\00:27:07.02
[CLOSING MUSIC]
00:27:07.06\00:27:09.82
