THAT'S A HUGH HUGE RECTANGLE
ON OUR GLOBE FROM WESTERN AFRICA
00:00:33.50\00:00:36.50
ALL THE WAY THROUGH COUNTRIES
LIKE INDIA, BANGLADESH AND
THAILAND AND CHINA AND
00:00:36.53\00:00:41.07
JAPAN AND WE THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR YOUR PARTNERSHIP.
00:00:41.10\00:00:44.17
ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS IS AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO COME AND
00:00:44.21\00:00:48.41
TO SHARE WITH YOU THE THINGS
THAT ARE HAPPENING, THE BOOTS ON
THE GROUND WITH THE GOSPEL
00:00:48.44\00:00:51.65
OUTREACH WORKERS AND THE
REGIONAL DIRECTORS AND TODAY WE
00:00:51.68\00:00:54.85
HAVE BRYAN GALLANT HERE WITH US.
00:00:54.88\00:00:56.02
BRYAN WELCOME TO
ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS.
00:00:56.05\00:00:57.69
THANK YOU.
00:00:57.72\00:00:59.82
BRYAN YOU ARE FROM A PART OF
OUR COUNTRY HERE IN AMERICA AND
00:00:59.85\00:01:04.33
WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
00:01:04.36\00:01:05.26
I CURRENTLY LIVE IN MISSOURI.
00:01:05.29\00:01:06.36
AND YOU WORK WHERE?
00:01:06.39\00:01:07.73
I WORK WITH THE IOWA-MISSOURI
CONFERENCE WHERE WE ARE
00:01:07.76\00:01:10.67
MOBILIZING THE
CHURCH TO SERVE REFUGEES.
00:01:10.70\00:01:12.57
YES.
00:01:12.60\00:01:14.14
SO THIS IS A NEAT NEW STEP
HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH AND DEAN
00:01:14.17\00:01:19.31
CORIDAN, AND YOU WORK WITH HIM.
00:01:19.34\00:01:20.68
WHY DON'T YOU GIVE OUR VIEWERS A
LITTLE BACKGROUND AS THIS IS ALL
00:01:20.71\00:01:23.58
KIND OF NEW TO THEM OF
HEARING ABOUT REFUGEE WORK.
00:01:23.61\00:01:25.68
SURE.
00:01:25.71\00:01:27.18
WELL DEAN HAS TAKEN IT ON HIS
HEART AND LED A WHOLE CONFERENCE
00:01:27.22\00:01:32.45
BEHIND HIM IN THE PROCESS OF
MOBILIZING OUR CHURCH TO SERVE
THE REFUGEES WHOM GOD IS
00:01:32.49\00:01:34.02
BRINGING TO THE
UNITED STATES HERE.
00:01:34.06\00:01:35.49
BUT IN ADDITION TO THAT DEAN
ALSO GOES TO THE REFUGEE CAMPS
00:01:35.52\00:01:46.00
TO SERVE THEM.
00:01:46.03\00:01:47.57
SO REFUGEES, OF COURSE, EVERYONE
IS HEARING ABOUT THOSE ALL THE
00:01:47.60\00:01:52.44
TIME AND THE TRAGEDY THAT IT IS.
00:01:52.47\00:01:53.94
BUT JUST IMAGINE JULIE TO BE IN
YOUR COUNTRY, YOUR PLACE, YOUR
00:01:53.98\00:01:59.68
CULTURE AND WHETHER THROUGH
WAR OR THROUGH PERSECUTION OR
00:01:59.71\00:02:05.32
DISASTERS YOU ARE DISPLACED WITH
NO WARNING AND LITERALLY IS THE
PHRASE WE SAY "SHIRT ON
00:02:05.35\00:02:10.73
YOUR BACK" SORT OF THING.
00:02:10.76\00:02:12.93
WELL LITERALLY THAT'S WHAT THEY
DO AND THEY ARE CARRYING THESE
00:02:12.96\00:02:16.93
THINGS AND EVERYONE IS SEEING
PICTURES ON THE NEWS MEDIA AND
EVEN THE ONES THAT ARE
00:02:16.97\00:02:19.43
RISKING THEIR LIVES TO GET ON
A BOAT TO CROSS FROM SYRIA AND
00:02:19.47\00:02:23.47
EVENTUALLY GETTING TO GREECE AND
THAT ONE ICONIC PICTURE OF THE
POLICE OFFICER CARRYING
00:02:23.51\00:02:28.98
THE DROWNED BOY.
00:02:29.01\00:02:30.91
YES.
00:02:30.95\00:02:31.91
NO LIFE JACKETS.
00:02:31.95\00:02:33.31
BASICALLY RAFTS.
00:02:33.35\00:02:34.85
HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN ONE
OF THOSE INFLATABLES AND YES THE
00:02:34.88\00:02:38.92
PICTURES, WE'VE SEEN THEM.
00:02:38.95\00:02:39.59
RIGHT.
00:02:39.62\00:02:41.02
SO WE SEEM TO HAVE A TOP OF MIND
AWARENESS OF WHAT REFUGEES ARE
00:02:41.06\00:02:45.73
AND THE IMMENSE
CHALLENGE THAT IT IS RIGHT NOW.
00:02:48.43\00:02:49.86
IN FACT MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING
THAT IT'S THE GREATEST REFUGEE
00:02:49.90\00:02:52.87
CRISIS EVER IN THE HISTORY
OF HUMANITY EVEN NOW SURPASSING
00:02:52.90\00:02:56.14
WHAT HAPPENED IN WORLD WAR II.
00:02:56.17\00:02:57.67
AND SO YOU HAVE PEOPLE NOT JUST
FROM SYRIA AND THE MIDDLE EAST
00:02:57.71\00:02:58.97
BUT YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT HAVE
LITERALLY BEEN IN A REFUGEE CAMP
00:02:59.01\00:03:02.84
FOR DECADES. WE WORK IN
IOWA-MISSOURI AND WE HAVE A
NUMBER OF LARGE CITIES, LARGER
00:03:02.88\00:03:07.92
CITIES, NOT LARGE COMPARED TO
CALIFORNIA BUT YOU KNOW KANSAS
00:03:13.82\00:03:17.79
CITY, ST. LOUIS, DES MOINES
AND COLUMBIA AND CEDAR RAPIDS.
00:03:17.83\00:03:21.33
IN THOSE PLACES THE
REFUGEES ARE COMING TO US.
00:03:21.36\00:03:25.90
YOU KNOW THE FANTASTIC STATEMENT
IN THE BOOK EVANGELISM.
00:03:25.93\00:03:29.44
ONE HUNDRED TWO YEARS AGO
ELLEN WHITE SAID THAT GOD IN HIS
00:03:29.47\00:03:33.14
PROVIDENCE WOULD BRING THE
FOREIGNERS TO THIS COUNTRY SO
THAT WE CAN REACH THEM HERE AND
00:03:33.17\00:03:37.01
THEN THEY CAN REACH THE WORLD.
00:03:37.05\00:03:38.68
WELL WE'RE SEEING THAT.
00:03:38.71\00:03:40.22
AND SO AS WE WORK WITH REFUGEES
LIKE FROM NEPAL, I'VE BEEN IN A
00:03:40.25\00:03:44.59
HOME HAVING A BIBLE STUDY WITH
ONE OF THE NEPALI LEADERS WHO
REPRESENTS MORE THAN 2000
00:03:44.62\00:03:49.96
REFUGEES FROM NEPAL
IN THE KANSAS CITY AREA.
00:03:49.99\00:03:53.33
AND HIS FAMILY WAS
IN A CAMP FOR 20 YEARS.
00:03:53.36\00:03:58.83
20 YEARS.
00:03:58.87\00:03:59.77
YES.
00:03:59.80\00:04:01.27
THERE WERE CHILDREN BORN AND
RAISED IN THAT CAMP, SO WE HAVE
00:04:01.30\00:04:05.61
REFUGEES THAT HAVE BEEN EVER
SINCE THE RWANDAN GENOCIDE AND
THE HORRIBLE TRAGEDY THERE.
00:04:07.71\00:04:13.42
THERE ARE STILL THOUSANDS AND
THOUSANDS OF REFUGEES IN CERTAIN
00:04:13.45\00:04:17.65
PLACES FROM THAT
EVENT IN THE NINETIES.
00:04:17.69\00:04:20.46
I HAVE A FRIEND WHO WAS SERVING
AS A STUDENT MISSIONARY IN
00:04:20.49\00:04:23.93
RWANDA AND SHE WAS ON ONE OF THE
LAST ENVOYS OUT WITH THE UN AND
WE HEAR THESE STORIES.
00:04:23.96\00:04:29.10
BUT YOU KNOW THE THING THAT GETS
ME THOUGH BRYAN IS WHEN I HEAR
00:04:29.13\00:04:32.03
THE WORD CAMP.
00:04:32.07\00:04:33.57
TO ME THAT MEANS OKAY WE'RE
GOING TO GO CAMP FOR THREE DAYS
00:04:33.60\00:04:36.84
AND THEN WE'RE COMING HOME.
00:04:36.87\00:04:37.71
SO IT'S KIND OF AN IRONIC WORD
TO USE AND A WRONG WORD AND WHEN
00:04:38.44\00:04:43.75
I'M HEARING THAT PEOPLE HAVE
BEEN IN A CAMP FOR 20 YEARS.
00:04:43.78\00:04:47.15
RIGHT.
00:04:47.18\00:04:48.55
SO THAT PARTICULAR FRIEND I'M
REFERENCING HE WAS SHARING WITH
00:04:48.58\00:04:50.62
ME. I SAT IN HIS ROOM AND HERE
THEY ARE JUST SO GRATEFUL TO BE
IN THE UNITED STATES
00:04:50.65\00:04:55.72
AND TO BE IN AN APARTMENT THAT
YOU PROBABLY WOULD NOT CHOOSE TO
00:04:58.49\00:05:02.96
LIVE IN YET THE'RE GRATEFUL.
00:05:03.00\00:05:03.63
THEY'RE THRILLED.
00:05:03.67\00:05:05.20
YOU KNOW IF I GO TO THE BATHROOM
IN THEIR HOME I'M NOTICING THE
00:05:05.23\00:05:09.40
SUBSTRUCTURE OF THE FLOORING IS
KIND OF GETTING CLOSER TO MY
EXPERIENCE TO LIVING IN
00:05:09.64\00:05:12.91
ASIA.
00:05:12.94\00:05:14.41
YOU CAN SEE THROUGH AND
THERE ARE ALWAYS EXTRA CRITTERS
00:05:14.44\00:05:17.35
WATCHING YOU AND SO FORTH IN
DIFFERENT SIZES THAT AMERICANS
DON'T LIKE TO PLAY WITH.
00:05:17.38\00:05:19.95
BUT HERE HE IS
GRATEFUL TO BE HERE.
00:05:19.98\00:05:23.92
BECAUSE I ASKED HIM WHAT
WAS IT LIKE LIVING IN THE CAMP.
00:05:23.95\00:05:27.02
OF COURSE WE THINK
OF A CAMP IN THE WOODS.
00:05:27.06\00:05:29.22
BUT NO.
00:05:29.26\00:05:30.73
THEY HAD A HOME THAT NO MATTER
WHAT THEY WOULD EVER DO THE ROOF
00:05:30.76\00:05:33.76
ALWAYS LEAKED AND WE'RE TALKING
MONSOON SEASONS AND ALL THOSE
00:05:33.80\00:05:37.63
THINGS. BUCKETS OF WATER COMING
DOWN, PEOPLE BEING SICK, PEOPLE
00:05:37.67\00:05:42.10
DYING FROM PNEUMONIA, CHILDREN
BEING RAISED IN THIS ENVIRONMENT
WHERE YOU ARE CRAMMED INTO
00:05:42.14\00:05:49.08
THIS VERY SMALL PLACE.
00:05:49.11\00:05:51.18
YOUR FAMILY, YOUR
EXTENDED FAMILY, WHOEVER ELSE.
00:05:51.21\00:05:54.28
THE FOODS THAT ARE PROVIDED ARE
WE MIGHT CONSIDER EVEN PRISON
00:05:54.32\00:05:59.22
LEVEL.
00:05:59.25\00:06:00.12
BUT THEY'RE
GRATEFUL TO HAVE FOOD.
00:06:00.16\00:06:02.86
AND THE BIG CHALLENGE WE'VE
FOUND ALSO IS THE WATER THAT
00:06:02.89\00:06:09.66
THEY CAN DRINK
IS A LONG WAYS AWAY.
00:06:09.70\00:06:11.23
AND SO MANY OF THEM ARE NOT
DRINKING NORMAL WATER AND IT'S
00:06:11.27\00:06:15.80
NOT EVEN CLEAN IF
THEY DID GO GET IT.
00:06:15.84\00:06:17.37
THEY'RE BEING OFFERED SODA POP.
00:06:17.41\00:06:18.51
OH DEAR SO
THEY'RE DRINKING THAT.
00:06:18.54\00:06:20.04
SO YOU HAVE CHILDREN THAT ARE
DRINKING SODA POP LIKE WATER AND
00:06:20.08\00:06:23.81
SO NOW WE'RE FINDING IN ALMOST
ALL THE REFUGEES HUGE
PERCENTAGES, ABOVE EIGHTY
00:06:23.85\00:06:27.58
PERCENT, ARE ALREADY DIABETIC.
00:06:27.62\00:06:28.92
BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY'VE
BEEN DRINKING FOR FLUID.
00:06:28.95\00:06:30.92
RIGHT.
00:06:30.95\00:06:32.19
OH SEE THAT'S A WHOLE NEW TOPIC
THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
00:06:32.22\00:06:35.36
RIGHT.
00:06:35.39\00:06:36.02
WOW.
00:06:36.06\00:06:37.63
AND SO WHAT WE'RE DOING AS
GOD BRINGS THE REFUGEES TO US MY
00:06:37.66\00:06:42.26
WORK IS TO TRY TO MOBILIZE THE
ADVENTIST CHURCH AROUND THE
REGION TO BEGIN TO SERVE THOSE
00:06:42.30\00:06:47.77
REFUGEES, GOING INTO THEIR
HOMES, HELPING THEM LEARN ABOUT
HEALTHY COOKING AND
00:06:47.80\00:06:52.94
NOT TO DRINK ALL
THE SODA POP STILL.
00:06:52.97\00:06:54.91
RIGHT.
00:06:54.94\00:06:56.38
BUT IN THEIR MENTALITY THOUGH, I
MEAN TO THEIR CREDIT, THEY KNOW
00:06:56.41\00:06:59.38
THAT THEY SHOULDN'T DRINK THE
WATER IF THEY DO GET IT, BECAUSE
00:06:59.41\00:07:02.22
THEY'D GET SICK AND SO THEN
HERE'S THE SAFER ALTERNATIVE.
00:07:02.25\00:07:04.49
RIGHT.
00:07:04.52\00:07:06.02
SO THIS WHOLE WORK OF REFUGEES
AND WORKING WITH DIFFERENT
00:07:06.05\00:07:10.63
RELIGIONS IS NOT ANYTHING TO YOU
BECAUSE YOU HAVE LIVED OVERSEAS.
00:07:10.66\00:07:13.46
YOU LIVED IN INDONESIA AND WHY
DON'T YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT
00:07:13.50\00:07:17.20
ABOUT THAT. RIGHT.
00:07:17.23\00:07:18.63
MY WIFE AND I HAVE LIVED ABOUT
EIGHT AND A HALF YEARS IN THREE
00:07:18.67\00:07:21.10
DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.
00:07:21.14\00:07:22.60
IN MICRONESIA FOR AWHILE AND
THEN CAMBODIA AND THEN MORE
RECENTLY INDONESIA.
00:07:22.64\00:07:26.91
SO MOSTLY SOUTHEAST ASIA.
00:07:28.88\00:07:29.91
OKAY.
00:07:29.94\00:07:30.61
WE'RE INTO ISLANDS AND RICE.
00:07:30.65\00:07:31.88
HEY THERE YOU GO.
00:07:31.91\00:07:32.45
I LIKE IT, I LIKE IT.
00:07:32.48\00:07:33.95
SO WE HAVE WORKED BY AND LARGE
WITH ACTUALLY MUSLIM PEOPLE AND
00:07:33.98\00:07:38.92
OF COURSE A GOOD PORTION OF
REFUGEES NOW WHO ARE COMING TO
THE STATES ARE THE SYRIAN
00:07:42.49\00:07:46.53
REFUGEES WHO ARE PREDOMINATELY
GOING TO BE MUSLIM.
00:07:46.56\00:07:48.80
SO WE ARE VERY COMFORTABLE IN
A CROSS CULTURAL SETTING AS WELL
00:07:48.83\00:07:50.80
AS THE SETTING OF BRIDGING
BETWEEN BIBLICAL CHRISTIANITY
00:07:50.83\00:07:52.13
AND ISLAMIC VIEWS AND ARE
VERY COMFORTABLE IN DOING THAT.
00:07:52.17\00:07:53.67
AND YOU KNOW WHAT BRYAN THAT
IS SO NEAT TO HEAR YOUR HISTORY
00:07:53.70\00:07:55.47
ABOUT THAT BECAUSE GOD HAS
PREPARED YOU AND YOUR WIFE FOR
DOING JUST WHAT YOU'RE
00:07:55.50\00:07:57.47
DOING NOW BECAUSE IF YOU HADN'T
HAD THE BACKGROUND OF LIVING IN
00:07:57.51\00:07:59.47
INDONESIA THE HIGHEST POPULATION
OF MUSLIMS IN THE WORLD RIGHT.
00:07:59.51\00:08:00.88
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:08:00.91\00:08:01.54
YES.
00:08:01.58\00:08:02.54
SO IF YOU HADN'T HAD
THAT AND THEN JUST THINK.
00:08:02.58\00:08:03.58
I'M EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT THAT.
00:08:03.61\00:08:04.88
SO HOW IS THIS FOR YOU HAVING
THAT BACKGROUND WORKING WITH THE
00:08:04.91\00:08:06.35
CONFERENCE AND THEN BRIDGING
THIS GAP BECAUSE WHEN I HEAR
00:08:06.38\00:08:07.88
IOWA-MISSOURI CONFERENCE AND
WHEN I HEAR DES MOINES, ST.
LOUIS, CEDAR RAPIDS AND KANSAS
00:08:07.92\00:08:12.69
CITY.
00:08:15.76\00:08:17.26
I MEAN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE
HEARTLAND OF AMERICA AND MEAT
00:08:17.29\00:08:22.06
AND POTATOES AND ALL OF THAT.
00:08:30.01\00:08:31.51
HAVING PEOPLE COMING FROM
DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE WORLD WHO
00:08:31.54\00:08:33.51
ARE EATING CURRY AND RICE AND
ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS YOU
KNOW YOU THINK OKAY GREAT I'M
00:08:33.54\00:08:35.51
GOING TO GO TO NEW YORK,
L.A., SEATTLE, WHEREVER AND MORE
00:08:35.54\00:08:37.51
COSMOPOLITAN MORE INTERNATIONAL.
00:08:37.55\00:08:38.55
BUT HOW IS THIS
BRIDGING HAPPENING IN YOUR AREA?
00:08:38.58\00:08:40.08
WELL AS YOU JUST DESCRIBED WE
EXPECT THE ETHNIC GROUPS TO BE
00:08:40.12\00:08:41.65
ON THE COASTS AND THEY HAVE
HISTORICALLY BEEN MORE LIKE THAT
AS WE REMEMBER FROM WORLD WAR
00:08:41.68\00:08:46.62
II.
00:09:09.04\00:09:11.98
BUT WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS
FINDING IS REAL ESTATE COSTS AND
00:09:12.01\00:09:16.28
SO FORTH ARE SO PROHIBITIVE
THERE THAT THAT'S WHY THEY ARE
SENDING THEM TO HOMELAND
00:09:16.32\00:09:20.82
AS IT WERE AND
TO THE MIDWEST AREA.
00:09:20.86\00:09:23.06
AND SO WE ARE SEEING ALL
THESE PLACES BOOM AND GROW.
00:09:23.09\00:09:25.76
BUT YOU'RE RIGHT.
00:09:25.79\00:09:27.23
THAT MEANS YOU HAVE MOM AND
POP ADVENTISTS IN THE MIDWEST
00:09:27.30\00:09:34.10
FARMERS AND WONDERFUL FOLKS AND
HERE THEY'RE FINDING THAT THERE
ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE
00:09:34.14\00:09:37.44
DRESSED DIFFERENT
AND TALKING DIFFERENTLY.
00:09:37.47\00:09:39.27
MY WORK IS TRYING TO BRIDGE
THAT GAP WHERE I GO INTO AS MANY
00:09:39.31\00:09:44.38
CHURCHES AS POSSIBLE AND BEGIN
TO DO WHAT YOU MIGHT CONSIDER
CROSS CULTURAL AWARENESS
00:09:49.05\00:09:54.09
AND TRAINING AND SHARING STORIES
AND INVITING PEOPLE TO REALIZE
00:09:54.12\00:09:58.33
THAT THIS IS NOT
A SURPRISE FOR GOD.
00:09:58.36\00:10:01.03
BIBLICALLY IN ACTS 17 GOD
LITERALLY SAYS OR PAUL DESCRIBES
00:10:01.06\00:10:05.37
THE FACT THAT GOD IS THE ONE WHO
DETERMINES THE TIMES AND THE
PLACES AND THE PLACES
00:10:05.40\00:10:08.57
WHERE PEOPLE WOULD LIVE SO
THAT THEY WOULD SEEK AFTER HIM.
00:10:08.60\00:10:10.84
SO POLITICS COMPLETELY ASIDE
FROM A KINGDOM OF GOD
PERSPECTIVE, GOD IS
00:10:10.87\00:10:15.94
THE ONE WHO IS
DETERMINING WHERE PEOPLE ARE.
00:10:18.85\00:10:21.02
AND AS WE CHOOSE TO PARTNER WITH
HIM IN REACHING OUT REALIZING
00:10:21.05\00:10:26.12
THAT THE FOLKS WE HEAR ABOUT
IN MISSION STORIES OF OVER THERE
00:10:26.15\00:10:30.43
AND THINK THAT IT HAS TO REQUIRE
A SUITCASE, NOW GOD HAS BROUGHT
00:10:30.46\00:10:35.26
IT HERE. YES.
00:10:35.30\00:10:36.70
YOU KNOW, I WAS JUST TALKING
WITH A YOUNG LADY JUST LAST WEEK
00:10:36.73\00:10:41.90
WHO IS PRAYERFULLY CONSIDERING,
AS A YOUNG ADULT AND PRAISE GOD
00:10:41.94\00:10:47.04
FOR THIS, TO CHOOSE TO MOVE AND
TO MOVE INTO ONE OF THESE PLACES
WHERE IT'S NOTHING BUT
00:10:47.08\00:10:52.68
REFUGEES.
00:10:52.71\00:10:53.35
WOW.
00:10:53.38\00:10:53.88
HERE IN THE STATES.
00:10:53.92\00:10:55.05
IN THE STATES
RIGHT IN KANSAS CITY.
00:10:55.08\00:10:56.79
LITTLE NEPAL WHERE EVERY SINGLE
NEIGHBOR WILL BE A NEPALI.
00:10:56.82\00:11:00.89
AND FOR HER TO CHOSE TO
LIVE THERE AND TO MAKE HER HOME
00:11:00.92\00:11:06.23
AVAILABLE FOR TEACHING ENGLISH
CONVERSATIONALLY BECAUSE EVEN
THOUGH AS A REFUGEE
00:11:06.26\00:11:09.83
COMES TO ANY COUNTRY, AND WE
HEAR ABOUT THIS IN EUROPE AND SO
00:11:09.86\00:11:13.67
FORTH, WHERE THEY ARE NOT
INTEGRATING INTO SOCIETY, ONE OF
OUR GREATEST DESIRES IS TO
00:11:13.70\00:11:20.58
CREATE THE WAY SO THAT THEY
CAN BECOME PART OF THE GOOD OF
00:11:20.61\00:11:24.91
AMERICAN SOCIETY AND NOT TO
BE AUTOMATICALLY SUCKED INTO THE
00:11:24.95\00:11:28.05
BAD. AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS
WE ARE DOING IS ALLOWING FOR
00:11:28.08\00:11:31.79
EDUCATION. SO THE IOWA-MISSOURI
CONFERENCE HAS CREATED AN
EDUCATION SUPPORT FUND SO
00:11:31.82\00:11:34.79
ANY REFUGEE CHILD THAT WANTS
TO ATTEND AN ADVENTIST SCHOOL WE
00:11:34.82\00:11:38.19
HELP TO SUPPORT THEM.
00:11:38.23\00:11:38.83
THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY.
00:11:38.86\00:11:40.70
WONDERFUL.
00:11:40.73\00:11:41.53
SO WE HAVE MORE
THAN 50 DOING THAT.
00:11:41.56\00:11:43.43
WELL BRYAN, LET'S GIVE OUR
VIEWERS AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET
00:11:43.47\00:11:46.80
INVOLVED. IF YOUR EXCITED ABOUT
WHAT YOU'RE HEARING ABOUT HOW
00:11:46.84\00:11:50.91
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS PARTNERING
WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS, WE
WANT TO INCLUDE YOU.
00:11:50.94\00:11:54.74
AND HERE'S INFORMATION
ON HOW YOU CAN BE INCLUDED.
00:11:54.78\00:11:57.75
GOSPEL OUTREACH BEGAN A MISSION
TWENTY YEARS AGO BY ASKING ONE
00:11:57.78\00:12:01.98
SIMPLE QUESTION.
00:12:02.02\00:12:03.18
WHAT IS JESUS WAITING FOR?
00:12:03.22\00:12:04.59
IN A WORLD FILLED WITH FAMINE,
HUNGER AND STARVATION, WHAT IS
00:12:04.62\00:12:09.96
JESUS WAITING FOR?
00:12:09.99\00:12:11.46
IN A WORLD FILLED WITH
EARTHQUAKES, HURRICANES AND
NATURAL CALAMITIES,
00:12:11.49\00:12:14.83
WHAT IS JESUS WAITING FOR?
00:12:14.86\00:12:17.60
THE GOSPEL TELLS US IN MATTHEW
24:14 "AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE
00:12:17.63\00:12:22.90
KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN ALL
THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS UNTO ALL
00:12:22.94\00:12:27.84
NATIONS AND THEN
SHALL THE END COME."
00:12:27.88\00:12:29.08
INSPIRED BY THOSE WORDS GOSPEL
OUTREACH BEGAN WITH ONE WORKER
00:12:31.41\00:12:35.88
AND OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS
HAS GROWN INTO AN ORGANIZATION
WITH TWENTY-TWO HUNDRED
00:12:35.92\00:12:39.59
WORKERS IN FORTY PLUS COUNTRIES.
00:12:39.62\00:12:42.82
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS AN
INDEPENDENT SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST LAY MINISTRY RUN
00:12:42.86\00:12:46.73
ENTIRELY BY VOLUNTEERS.
00:12:46.76\00:12:48.20
YES, YOU HEARD THAT CORRECT.
00:12:48.23\00:12:50.73
IT'S AN ALL
VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATION.
00:12:50.77\00:12:53.23
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKS WITH
THE ORGANIZED CHURCH TO SPONSOR
00:12:53.27\00:12:57.81
BIBLE WORKERS IN
UNREACHED TERRITORIES.
00:12:57.84\00:12:59.37
NOW YOU MIGHT ASK DOESN'T
THIS TAKE AWAY FROM THE WORK THE
00:12:59.41\00:13:04.45
CHURCH IS ALREADY
DOING WITH OVERSEAS MISSIONS?
00:13:04.48\00:13:06.92
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
00:13:06.95\00:13:08.48
DIRECT SPONSORSHIP IS
JUST A PART OF THE EQUATION.
00:13:08.52\00:13:12.05
JUST AS LARGE A PART IS STAYING
INVOLVED IN THE WORK THE CHURCH
00:13:12.09\00:13:15.79
IS DOING THROUGH
MISSIONS OFFERING.
00:13:15.82\00:13:17.29
GOSPEL OUTREACH'S MAIN DESIRE
IS TO RAISE FUNDS WHICH ARE SENT
00:13:17.33\00:13:21.53
DIRECTLY TO THE CHURCH TO PAY
BIBLE WORKERS WHO HELP SPREAD
THE GOSPEL IN THE 10/40
00:13:21.56\00:13:25.43
WINDOW.
00:13:25.47\00:13:27.10
NOW WHAT EXACTLY
IS THE 10/40 WINDOW?
00:13:27.14\00:13:30.81
THE 10/40 WINDOW IS A REGION OF
THE EASTERN HEMISPHERE LOCATED
00:13:30.84\00:13:34.44
BETWEEN 10 AND 40
DEGREES NORTH OF THE EQUATOR.
00:13:34.48\00:13:36.85
WHAT MAKES THIS REGION SPECIAL?
00:13:36.88\00:13:40.28
NINETY-SEVEN PERCENT OF ALL THE
PEOPLE IN WORLD WHO HAVE NEVER
00:13:40.32\00:13:43.95
HEARD THE NAME
OF JESUS LIVE HERE.
00:13:43.99\00:13:46.42
NOW HOW EXACTLY DOES GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORK TO REACH THESE
00:13:46.45\00:13:51.39
PEOPLE? WE DO THIS BY WORKING
WITH THE CHURCH AS IT PLACES
TRAINED INDIGENOUS WORKERS
00:13:51.43\00:13:55.23
IN NEW TERRITORIES, SENDING
OUT DISCIPLES JUST AS JESUS DID.
00:13:55.26\00:14:00.34
WE SPONSOR BIBLE
WORKERS LIKE PRABIR RUBEN.
00:14:00.37\00:14:03.07
PRABIR IS FROM INDIA AND WITH
THE HELP OF OUR SPONSORSHIP HIS
00:14:03.10\00:14:06.84
CHURCH CONFERENCE HAS SENT HIM
TO THIS SMALL VILLAGE OF MARUAH
00:14:06.88\00:14:10.98
TO SHARE THE GOSPEL.
00:14:11.01\00:14:12.51
THESE INDIVIDUALS HAD NEVER
HEARD THE NAME OF JESUS AND
00:14:12.55\00:14:15.42
THEIR LIVES HAVE
BEEN CHANGED FOREVER.
00:14:15.45\00:14:16.89
IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS
THERE HAVE BEEN NINE ADDITIONAL
00:14:16.92\00:14:21.36
BAPTISMS DUE TO
THE WORK OF PRABIR.
00:14:21.39\00:14:23.09
UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO THE LOCAL
MEMBERS OF THIS CHURCH HAD BEEN
00:14:23.12\00:14:26.63
WORSHIPPING IN A HOUSE CHURCH.
00:14:26.66\00:14:28.43
RECENTLY A NEW MEMBER NAMED
ARISMA GAVE HIS LIFE TO GOD AND
00:14:28.46\00:14:32.80
DONATED A PIECE OF HIS
OWN LAND TO THE CHURCH.
00:14:32.83\00:14:35.04
ON IT A NEW TIN
CHURCH HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED.
00:14:35.07\00:14:38.84
IT STILL NEEDS SOME WORK BUT
GOD'S CHURCH CONTINUES TO GROW
00:14:38.87\00:14:42.98
HERE IN INDIA. WHEN A BIBLE
WORKER SPONSORED BY GOSPEL
OUTREACH ENTERS A NEW
00:14:43.01\00:14:47.18
VILLAGE IT'S ESTIMATED THAT IN
THE FIRST YEAR AN ADDITIONAL 300
00:14:47.22\00:14:52.29
INDIVIDUALS WILL BE BAPTIZED AND
COMMIT THEIR LIVES TO CHRIST.
00:14:56.42\00:14:57.99
INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NEVER HEARD
THE AMAZING STORY OF GOD'S LOVE
00:14:58.03\00:15:00.53
ARE GETTING TO MEET
JESUS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
00:15:00.56\00:15:04.60
NOW HOW CAN YOU HELP?
00:15:04.63\00:15:08.84
BIBLE WORKERS LIKE PRABIR RELY
ON SPONSORSHIPS TO SUPPORT THEM
00:15:08.87\00:15:12.47
AND THEIR FAMILIES AS THEY SHARE
THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE OF GOD.
00:15:12.51\00:15:16.04
THIS IS WHY GOSPEL OUTREACH IS
INTRODUCING OUR ADOPT A WORKER
00:15:16.08\00:15:20.98
PROGRAM.
00:15:21.02\00:15:22.45
TOGETHER WITH THE CHURCH WE
IDENTIFY NEW WORKERS IN AREAS
00:15:22.48\00:15:25.75
THAT NEED TO BE REACHED.
00:15:25.79\00:15:27.26
WE HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED A
REQUEST FROM PASTOR RON WATTS,
00:15:27.29\00:15:31.46
RETIRED SOUTHERN ASIA DIVISION
PRESIDENT, FOR 10 THOUSAND NEW
BIBLE WORKERS IN INDIA ALONE.
00:15:31.49\00:15:37.47
THE NEED IN THE REST OF ASIA AND
AFRICA IS JUST AS LARGE WHERE
00:15:37.50\00:15:41.30
PEOPLE ARE HUNGRY
TO HEAR GOD'S WORD.
00:15:41.34\00:15:44.17
THAT IS WHY IT'S OUR GOAL TO
INTRODUCE A MILLION NEW PEOPLE
00:15:44.21\00:15:48.01
TO JESUS IN THE
NEXT THREE YEARS.
00:15:48.04\00:15:49.78
ALL THAT IS REMAINING FOR THIS
WORK TO BEGIN IS YOUR FINANCIAL
00:15:49.81\00:15:54.78
HELP. THE AVERAGE COST OF
A BIBLE WORKER IS ONE HUNDRED
00:15:54.82\00:15:58.05
FIFTY DOLLARS A MONTH.
00:15:58.09\00:15:59.52
FOR SOME THAT'S TOO MUCH
TO SPONSOR ON THEIR OWN BUT
00:15:59.55\00:16:02.99
TOGETHER WITH YOUR CHURCH,
SABBATH SCHOOL GROUP OR SCHOOL
YOU CAN TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE
00:16:03.02\00:16:07.10
WORK BEING DONE AND SPONSOR
A GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER FOR A

SO NOW THAT YOU KNOW A BIT ABOUT
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND NOW THAT YOU

KNOW WHAT JESUS IS WAITING FOR
THE FINAL QUESTION IS WHAT ARE
00:16:48.84\00:16:53.91
YOU WAITING FOR? AND
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
00:16:59.61\00:17:01.12

WE THANK YOU FOR HOW THE LORD

YOU'RE DOING TO SHARE HIM IN THE
TOWN AND CITY THAT YOU LIVE IN
AND WE THANK YOU FOR
00:17:10.33\00:17:12.29
PARTNERING WITH US BY HAVING
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN THE
00:17:12.33\00:17:16.83
10-40 WINDOW AND THROUGH YOUR
SUPPORT IN PRAYER THAT IS MAKING
IT POSSIBLE AND THE
00:17:16.87\00:17:21.94
BLESSING OF THE LORD.
00:17:24.04\00:17:26.21
WE ALSO HAVE OUR NEWSLETTER
ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS AND WE'RE
00:17:26.24\00:17:29.58
HAPPY TO SEND THIS TO YOU.
00:17:29.61\00:17:31.01
WE THANK YOU ALSO FOR GOING
TO OUR FACEBOOK PAGE AND FOR
00:17:31.05\00:17:34.48
LEARNING MORE ABOUT GOSPEL
OUTREACH THAT WAY AND LIKING OUR
PAGE AND BEING INVOLVED WITH
00:17:34.52\00:17:38.29
THAT.
00:17:38.32\00:17:38.99
I'M HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:17:39.02\00:17:40.56
THE ACRONYM IS GO, G-O, AND
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT JESUS TELLS
00:17:40.59\00:17:45.33
US IN MARK AND IN MATTHEW.
00:17:45.36\00:17:46.80
IN MARK 16:15 HE SAID TO
THEM "GO INTO ALL THE WORLD AND
00:17:46.83\00:17:51.90
PREACH THE GOOD
NEWS TO ALL CREATION."
00:17:51.93\00:17:53.60
AND TODAY WE'RE HERE
TALKING WITH BRYAN GALLANT.
00:17:53.64\00:17:56.00
AND BRYAN WHAT IF THE
WHOLE WORLD COMES TO US HERE IN
00:17:56.04\00:18:00.81
AMERICA? LESS AIRFARE.
00:18:00.84\00:18:01.68
THAT'S SO TRUE.
00:18:01.71\00:18:02.64
LESS SUITCASES AND ALL OF THAT.
00:18:02.68\00:18:04.75
BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE
WORK THAT YOU ARE DOING IN THE
00:18:04.78\00:18:08.32
IOWA-MISSOURI CONFERENCE
WORKING WITH REFUGEES.
00:18:08.35\00:18:10.72
AND YOUR CONFERENCE
HAS TAKEN THIS PROJECT ON.
00:18:10.75\00:18:14.22
RIGHT.
00:18:14.26\00:18:14.89
HUGE PROJECT.
00:18:14.92\00:18:16.36
SO WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING AND WE
00:18:16.39\00:18:19.23
USED THESE WORDS, REFUGEE CAMP,
BUT HERE IN AMERICA PEOPLE ARE
00:18:19.26\00:18:25.77
ACTUALLY LIVING IN APARTMENTS
THEY'RE NOT IN TENT CITIES AND
THINGS LIKE THAT THAT MIGHT BE
00:18:25.80\00:18:28.90
IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
00:18:28.94\00:18:30.34
SO TELL ME ABOUT SOME OF THE
RELIGIONS OF THE REFUGEES THAT
00:18:30.37\00:18:34.88
YOU'RE WORKING WITH THAT
ARE COMING TO KANSAS CITY, DES
00:18:34.91\00:18:38.71
MOINES, ST. LOUIS.
WHAT ARE THOSE RELIGIONS?
00:18:38.75\00:18:40.25
WELL OF COURSE FROM SYRIA THERE
WILL BE MUSLIM, FROM NEPAL THERE
00:18:40.28\00:18:44.29
ARE GOING TO BE EITHER HINDU OR
CHRISTIAN ALREADY AND MANY OF
THEM FROM AFRICA ARE
00:18:44.32\00:18:49.72
POTENTIALLY ALREADY CHRISTIAN.
00:18:49.76\00:18:50.99
IN FACT, A HUGE PERCENTAGE
OF THEM ARE ALREADY ADVENTIST.
00:18:51.03\00:18:53.73
WOW.
00:18:53.76\00:18:55.13
AND SO WHEN THEY ARRIVE THEY ARE
IMMEDIATELY SAYING "WELL WHERE
00:18:55.16\00:18:59.23
IS MY CHURCH."
00:18:59.27\00:19:00.67
AND SO WE'RE DOING OUR BEST TO
MOBILIZE THE CHURCH TO ACTUALLY
00:19:00.70\00:19:02.90
SERVE THAT.
00:19:02.94\00:19:04.34
LITERALLY JUST TWO WEEKS
AGO I GOT A PHONE CALL FROM A
00:19:04.37\00:19:08.68
PARTICULAR TOWN WHERE A WOMAN
WAS RETURNING FROM A WOMEN'S
00:19:08.71\00:19:11.25
RETREAT. SHE IS FROM AFRICA.
00:19:11.28\00:19:12.75
SHE SPEAKS THE LANGUAGE AND SHE
REMARKED TO HER CAR MATE "I'D
00:19:12.78\00:19:16.92
LOVE TO SERVE REFUGEES BUT
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE."
00:19:16.95\00:19:19.22
AND TWO DAYS LATER THEY GOT A
PHONE CALL THAT 25 FAMILIES HAD
00:19:19.25\00:19:22.42
JUST COME TO THEIR CITY
SPEAKING THE SAME LANGUAGE.
00:19:22.46\00:19:24.66
SO NOW THAT CHURCH CALLED ME
UP AND SAID OKAY HOW DO WE SERVE
00:19:24.69\00:19:27.73
THEM. SO WE'RE MOBILIZING OUR
DIFFERENT COMMUNITY CENTERS TO
00:19:27.76\00:19:32.60
PROVIDE CLOTHES AND THINGS LIKE
THAT AND TO BRING THOSE TO THE
REFUGEES BECAUSE OFTEN
00:19:32.63\00:19:37.21
TIMES THEY DON'T HAVE
TRANSPORTATION OR ANYTHING.
00:19:37.24\00:19:39.17
BUT WE HAVE BUDDHIST REFUGEES.
00:19:39.21\00:19:41.61
EVERY WORLD RELIGION AND
THE CHANCE TO CONNECT WITH THEM.
00:19:41.64\00:19:46.85
SO I HAVE LEARNED A NEW TERM AND
I THINK IT'S HUGE AS CHRISTIANS.
00:19:46.88\00:19:50.99
WE ARE CHRISTIAN COMMUNICATORS.
00:19:51.02\00:19:53.82
AND I LOVE THIS TERM AND A BIBLE
STUDY TEACHER HAS USED THAT AND
00:19:53.86\00:19:59.23
JUST WHAT YOU SHARED
IT IS SAYING SOMETHING.
00:19:59.26\00:20:00.63
IF GOD IS PUTTING IT ON YOUR
HEART YOU HAVE TO COMMUNICATE
00:20:00.66\00:20:02.53
THAT TO SOMEBODY ELSE.
00:20:02.56\00:20:03.90
THAT WOMAN DID THAT AND WOW,
LOOK AT THE OPPORTUNITY THAT
00:20:03.93\00:20:04.93
JUST OPENED TO HER TO
BEING A CHRISTIAN COMMUNICATOR.
00:20:04.97\00:20:05.70
SO THERE ARE HUGE OPPORTUNITIES.
00:20:05.73\00:20:07.24
ABSOLUTELY.
00:20:07.27\00:20:08.04
BUT THERE ARE
ALSO SOME CHALLENGES.
00:20:08.07\00:20:09.24
RIGHT.
00:20:09.27\00:20:10.21
WHAT ARE SOME OF
THOSE THAT YOU'RE FACING?
00:20:10.24\00:20:11.74
WELL THE CHALLENGES ARE IT'S ONE
THING FOR PEOPLE TO COMMIT MONEY
00:20:11.77\00:20:13.24
LIKE WE HAVE CREATED AN
EDUCATION FUND WHERE WE'RE
LOOING FOR A THOUSAND PEOPLE IN
00:20:13.27\00:20:15.24
OUR CONFERENCE TO GIVE TEN
DOLLARS A MONTH SO THAT WE CAN
00:20:15.28\00:20:19.15
EDUCATE THE YOUNG PEOPLE.
00:20:19.18\00:20:20.58
BECAUSE THE CHALLENGE WE FACE IS
THE CHILDREN ARE LEARNING FASTER
00:20:20.62\00:20:21.82
OFTEN TIMES THAN THE
ADULTS ARE IN LANGUAGE.
00:20:21.85\00:20:23.28
AND SO THE CHALLENGE WILL BE
HELPING THEM TO INTEGRATE INTO
00:20:23.32\00:20:25.15
SOCIETY BY BEING
ABLE TO SPEAK ENGLISH.
00:20:25.19\00:20:26.72
BUT THE CHALLENGE WE FACE WITH
THE CHURCH IS IT'S OFTEN EASIER
00:20:26.76\00:20:27.82
FOR PEOPLE TO GIVE
MONEY THAN TO GIVE TIME.
00:20:27.86\00:20:29.22
AND REFUGEE WORK IS VERY TIME
INTENSE BECAUSE YOU BECOME THEIR
00:20:29.26\00:20:30.76
FAMILY. AND SO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
A NETWORK OF PEOPLE WHO ARE
WILLING TO SAY YES WE'RE
00:20:30.79\00:20:32.33
WILLING TO CONNECT WITH
THESE PEOPLE AND INVEST CERTAIN
00:20:32.36\00:20:36.16
AMOUNTS OF TIME TO BLESS THEM.
00:20:36.20\00:20:37.67
TO HAVE CHURCHES BEGIN TO
PROVIDE ESL CLASSES, JUST
CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH
00:20:37.70\00:20:38.73
WHICH ANYONE CAN DO IF
YOU HAVE BEEN LIVING HERE.
00:20:38.77\00:20:40.64
HELPING THEM TO GO SHOPPING.
00:20:40.67\00:20:45.74
BUT THERE'S AN INTERESTING
CHALLENGE THAT WE DIDN'T EXPECT.
00:20:48.31\00:20:52.18
WHICH IS WHAT?
00:20:52.21\00:20:53.68
THEY MAY COME HERE AND THEY
LEARN TO FUNCTION, THEY LEARN TO
00:20:53.72\00:20:58.69
LIVE IN OUR CULTURE AND SO FORTH
BUT FAMILY STYLE, PARENTING
00:20:59.32\00:21:02.19
STYLES. SO JUST IMAGINE QUICKLY
IF YOU'RE COMING FROM CERTAIN
COUNTRIES WHERE SOMETIMES
00:21:02.22\00:21:06.26
THE PARENTING TECHNIQUES ARE
A LITTLE BIT MORE PHYSICAL THAN
00:21:06.29\00:21:08.66
WHAT WE ARE ALLOWED TO DO HERE.
00:21:08.70\00:21:09.50
YOU'RE TALKING AS
FAR AS DISCIPLINE.
00:21:09.53\00:21:10.77
RIGHT, DISCIPLINING YOUR CHILD.
00:21:10.80\00:21:12.00
AND IMAGINE A PARENT TRYING
TO GET THE ATTENTION OF THEIR
00:21:12.03\00:21:13.47
PRE-TEEN CHILD WHO IS MAKING
SOME POOR CHOICES AND THE CHILD
00:21:13.50\00:21:15.77
HAS ALREADY LEARNED ABOUT 911
AND THEY BECOME THE TRANSLATION
00:21:15.80\00:21:17.84
BRIDGE BETWEEN ANY AUTHORITIES
AND SO FORTH, BECAUSE THEY
UNDERSTAND MORE ENGLISH THAN
00:21:17.87\00:21:19.91
THEIR PARENTS DO.
00:21:19.94\00:21:21.31
YOU HAVE THIS HUGE GENERATION
GAP NOW AND THEY ARE NOT
00:21:21.34\00:21:22.41
CONNECTING WITH THE SOCIETY,
THE PARENTS AND THE CARE GIVERS.
00:21:22.44\00:21:24.21
AND WE'RE SEEING WHERE THERE
ARE SERIOUS CHALLENGES WHERE THE
00:21:24.25\00:21:26.08
CHILDREN ARE BEGINNING TO ALMOST
DESTROY THEIR FAMILY STRUCTURE
00:21:26.11\00:21:29.95
BECAUSE THEY GET MAD AT
DAD AND SO THEY CAN CALL 911.
00:21:29.98\00:21:32.42
SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS THEY
ARE ABUSING THE OPPORTUNITY.
00:21:32.45\00:21:36.12
YES.
00:21:36.16\00:21:36.79
WOW.
00:21:36.83\00:21:37.66
ALL SORTS OF
DIFFERENT CULTURAL ISSUES.
00:21:37.69\00:21:39.06
SO WE'RE TRYING TO CREATE
OPPORTUNITIES TO DO LONG-TERM
00:21:39.09\00:21:42.76
HEALTHY PARENTING IN THE WESTERN
CULTURE THAT DOESN'T GET YOU
00:21:42.80\00:21:47.20
CALLED INTO JAIL. YES.
00:21:47.24\00:21:47.87
WOW.
00:21:47.90\00:21:49.17
WELL, JUST THINK OF ALL THE
RIPPLE EFFECTS OF ALL OF THIS.
00:21:49.20\00:21:52.37
I MEAN NOT ONLY ARE THESE PEOPLE
DISPLACED FROM THEIR COUNTRY BUT
00:21:52.41\00:21:58.48
THEN YOU HAVE ALL OF
THESE CULTURAL THINGS AND SOCIAL
00:21:58.51\00:22:00.32
THINGS. EVEN SHOPPING,
EVEN GOING TO A GROCERY STORE.
00:22:00.35\00:22:05.39
WHEN YOU HAVE HAD NO CHOICES FOR
SO LONG, TO WALK INTO A WALMART
00:22:49.50\00:22:55.10
YOU HAVE A WHOLE ROW OF CEREAL.
00:22:55.14\00:22:56.57
WE HAD OUR NORWEGIAN RELATIVES
COME AND WE TOOK THEM TO COSTCO
00:22:56.60\00:23:02.61
AND OH TO SEE THEIR FACES.
00:23:02.64\00:23:04.11
I MEAN THEY WERE TAKING PICTURES
AND EVERYTHING AND ONE OF THE
00:23:04.15\00:23:06.15
COSTCO EMPLOYEES CAME UP
AND SAID WHY ARE YOU TAKING
00:23:06.18\00:23:09.35
PICTURES. I SAID WELL THE
RELATIVES ARE HERE FROM NORWAY
AND IT'S ALL NEW TO THEM, IT'S
00:23:09.38\00:23:13.52
ALL NEW TO THEM.
00:23:13.56\00:23:14.42
THEN THE COSTCO
PERSON SAID OH, OKAY.
00:23:14.46\00:23:16.42
WELL YOU KNOW THE EXCITING THING
HERE THOUGH IS GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:23:16.46\00:23:20.70
HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACTUALLY
CREATE SOME PROJECTS WHERE THEY
ARE EQUIPPING PEOPLE
00:23:20.73\00:23:26.74
TO SERVE THE REFUGEES IN THOSE
CAMPS IN BEIRUT AND IN SYRIA AND
00:23:26.77\00:23:32.11
THESE ARE SOME PROPOSALS THAT
WE'RE HOPING THAT CAN BE BROUGHT
ON IN THE NEAR FUTURE AS
00:23:32.14\00:23:36.01
SUPPORT IS RAISED FOR THAT
BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY
AMAZING OPPORTUNITIES AT
00:23:36.04\00:23:39.71
THAT TIME OF NEED AND CHANGE.
00:23:39.75\00:23:41.48
THEY ARE READY FOR GOD
TO SPEAK INTO THEIR LIFE.
00:23:41.52\00:23:42.82
YES.
00:23:42.85\00:23:44.22
SO YOU ARE SHARING WHAT
YOU FOLKS ARE DOING IN YOUR
00:23:44.25\00:23:45.82
CONFERENCE. BUT THEN THIS IS
ALSO DEAN WORKING WITH US HERE
AT GOSPEL OUTREACH AND YOU'RE
00:23:45.85\00:23:47.39
WORKING WITH HIM BECAUSE THERE
ARE REFUGEE CAMPS IN THE 10/40
00:23:47.42\00:23:48.89
WINDOW OF COURSE THAT ARE HUGE
AND CAN YOU ADDRESS SOME OF
THOSE THINGS THAT YOU FOLKS ARE
00:23:48.92\00:23:51.26
PROPOSING?
00:23:51.29\00:23:51.93
RIGHT.
00:23:51.96\00:23:53.36
WE'RE PROPOSING THAT, WE
ACTUALLY HAVE NAMES IN HAND OF
00:23:53.40\00:23:54.93
PEOPLE WHO COULD GO INTO THE
REFUGEE CAMPS RIGHT THERE IN
BEIRUT, AND BEGIN TO SERVE THE
00:23:54.96\00:23:57.17
SYRIANS DOOR TO DOOR SHARING
THE BIBLE ALREADY SPEAKING THEIR
00:23:57.20\00:24:00.70
LANGUAGE. YOU KNOW ONE OF THE
POWERFUL REALITIES ABOUT GOSPEL
00:24:00.74\00:24:05.81
OUTREACH WORK IS IT'S NOT
SENDING WHITE IGNORANT FOLKS OR
ME BUT PEOPLE WHO ALREADY KNOW
00:24:18.85\00:24:23.76
THE CULTURE, KNOW THE LANGUAGE
AND CAN HANDLE THE FOOD.
00:24:23.79\00:24:26.46
SO WE HAVE WORKERS WE WANT TO
SEND AND THE FIRST EVER WORKERS
00:24:26.49\00:24:31.80
INTO SYRIA AND TO
BEGIN TO WORK RIGHT THERE.
00:24:31.83\00:24:33.30
WE ALREADY HAVE A COUPLE THAT IS
VOLUNTEERING TO DO THAT AND IT'S
00:24:33.34\00:24:35.94
JUST A QUESTION OF BEING ABLE TO
GO FORWARD WITH THE FUNDING FOR
00:24:35.97\00:24:39.94
THAT PROJECT. AND THERE'S
A YOUNG MAN THAT YOU'RE ALSO
00:24:39.97\00:24:42.41
THINKING ABOUT. YES, IN THE
BEIRUT AREA WHO WOULD THEN BE
WORKING WITH THE SYRIANS WHO
00:24:42.44\00:24:46.95
HAVE MADE IT OUT OF THE COUNTRY
INTO THE CAMPS THAT ARE THERE.
00:24:46.98\00:24:49.12
THERE ARE
OPPORTUNITIES TO TEACH ENGLISH.
00:24:49.15\00:24:50.69
THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES TO
ACTUALLY JUST START DOING BIBLE
00:24:50.72\00:24:52.45
STUDIES AND OTHER
GROUPS ARE ALREADY DOING THAT.
00:24:52.49\00:24:53.99
BUT WE HAVE THE CHANCE TO DO
THAT NOW AND TO BE ABLE TO
RECOGNIZE THIS CHANGE
00:24:54.02\00:24:55.46
OF EVENTS AND BE ABLE TO BRING
THE GOSPEL TO THESE PEOPLE AT A
00:24:55.49\00:25:00.30
TIME OF NEED AND BROKENNESS
THAT WE CAN HARDLY EVEN IMAGINE.
00:25:02.50\00:25:05.80
WELL AND THAT'S WHAT YOU
MENTIONED IS THAT WHEN THESE
00:25:05.83\00:25:10.27
DISASTERS HAPPEN PEOPLE NEED
TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE CARED FOR.
00:25:10.31\00:25:11.94
THEY NEED WATER, THEY NEED
BLANKETS, JUST THE PHYSICAL
00:25:11.97\00:25:18.11
THINGS THAT WE NEED AND THE
EMOTIONAL SUPPORT AND IT'S HUGE.
00:25:18.15\00:25:20.25
BUT IN ADDITION TO THOSE THINGS
WHICH SOME PEOPLE MIGHT CONSIDER
00:25:20.28\00:25:25.35
THE SOCIAL GOSPEL AND THIS
STUFF, IT'S ALSO HAVING PEOPLE
WHO ARE COMMITTED TO
00:25:29.12\00:25:34.20
SHARING THE BIBLE.
00:25:39.10\00:25:40.74
RECENTLY THERE WAS AN AMAZING
STORY THAT CAME OUT OVER THE
00:25:40.77\00:25:44.67
NATIONAL NEWS MEDIA AND SO FORTH
OF A YOUNG MAN WHO TOOK TWO
MONTHS OF HIS OWN TIME TO
00:25:44.71\00:25:48.84
GO INTO THESE CAMPS AND TO JUST
START GOING DOOR TO DOOR DOING
00:25:48.88\00:25:53.31
BIBLE STUDIES. AND AT ONE POINT
HERE HE IS IN THE SYRIAN REFUGEE
CAMP FUNCTIONING IN THE
00:25:53.35\00:26:00.06
LANGUAGE AND SO FORTH.
00:26:00.09\00:26:01.56
AS HE ENTERS THIS HOME, THERE
WERE ABOUT EIGHT PEOPLE THERE,
00:26:01.59\00:26:05.49
AND HE SAYS "HI, I'M DANIEL.
00:26:05.53\00:26:06.86
I'D LIKE TO SHARE
WITH YOU ABOUT JESUS."
00:26:06.90\00:26:09.20
EVERYONE LOOKED AT HIM, LOOKED
TO EACH OTHER AND THEY STARTED
00:26:09.23\00:26:13.13
YOU KNOW SPARKING OFF AND SOME
JUMPED UP TO GO GET SOME ONE AND
00:26:13.17\00:26:16.44
THEY CAME BACK AND HE'S JUST
DUMBFOUNDED THINKING OF COURSE
THEY'RE GOING TO ATTACK.
00:26:16.47\00:26:18.64
MAYBE THIS IS A TERRORIST CELL
AND THEY'RE GOING TO KILL ME.
00:26:18.67\00:26:20.78
BUT THEY SAID PLEASE,
PLEASE, TELL US, TELL US.
00:26:20.81\00:26:23.58
HE SAID OKAY AND HE STARTED
TELLING THEM ABOUT JESUS THEN
00:26:23.61\00:26:26.05
THEY SHARED WITH HIM.
00:26:26.08\00:26:28.15
THE DAY BEFORE WHILE THEY WERE
IN THEIR TENT A MAN IN WHITE
00:26:28.18\00:26:33.52
CAME JUST BLAZING AND BRIGHT AND
SAID "I'M JESUS, I WILL BE
SENDING A MAN NAMED DANIEL
00:26:33.56\00:26:38.46
TOMORROW TO TELL YOU MORE."
00:26:38.49\00:26:39.53
FANTASTIC.
00:26:39.56\00:26:40.60
PRAISE THE LORD.
00:26:40.63\00:26:41.70
AND THAT OPENED THEIR EARS.
00:26:41.73\00:26:45.50
WELL THE BIBLE
TALKS ABOUT VISIONS RIGHT.
00:26:45.53\00:26:48.60
GOD'S NOT DEAD,
HE'S STILL WORKING.
00:26:48.64\00:26:50.01
HE'S STILL ALIVE.
00:26:50.04\00:26:51.17
WELL BRYAN GALLANT THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
00:26:51.21\00:26:53.07
