Well, Pastor Mercado,
00:00:19.35\00:00:21.78
this is a much bigger crowd than
00:00:21.82\00:00:23.32
we see at our spring
fellowship in the Lake Union.
00:00:23.35\00:00:27.02
Oh, it sure is.
00:00:27.06\00:00:28.39
But I tell you this, I
feel a lift being here.
00:00:28.42\00:00:31.56
I just praise the
Lord for the privilege
00:00:31.59\00:00:33.26
we have to be here today
because we know God is here.
00:00:33.29\00:00:35.90
What do you say?
00:00:35.93\00:00:37.27
Amen. Amen.
00:00:37.30\00:00:38.63
So we praise the Lord for that.
00:00:38.67\00:00:40.00
Praise the Lord. Amen.
00:00:40.04\00:00:41.37
And the crowd looks big,
but it looks very friendly.
00:00:41.40\00:00:43.81
I don't see the ladies
with those contemporary hat on,
00:00:43.84\00:00:46.44
but I'm so glad
that they're all here
00:00:46.47\00:00:48.81
and I'm going to ask them
to stand as we join with you
00:00:48.84\00:00:53.42
for the opening prayer
for this beautiful session.
00:00:53.45\00:00:56.05
Can you stand, please, as
we offer the opening prayer?
00:00:56.08\00:00:58.55
Our Father, we're so
grateful and thankful
00:01:02.46\00:01:04.46
we have to be here.
00:01:04.49\00:01:06.26
We're so
grateful for the privilege
00:01:06.29\00:01:07.63
we have to be here today.
00:01:07.66\00:01:09.26
And this special occasion, Lord,
00:01:09.30\00:01:10.63
we have another
session of ASI National.
00:01:10.67\00:01:13.27
We just pray for Your
Holy Spirit to be with us,
00:01:13.30\00:01:15.70
to guide us.
00:01:15.74\00:01:17.07
We may feel Your
spirit as we hear the stories
00:01:17.11\00:01:20.48
and we hear the
miracles that You are working.
00:01:20.51\00:01:22.51
Amen. That they be...
00:01:22.54\00:01:23.88
This event and
this meeting today
00:01:23.91\00:01:26.75
will affirm to us the
reality that our God lives,
00:01:26.78\00:01:30.05
our God is real,
and our God loves.
00:01:30.09\00:01:31.89
Amen.
00:01:31.92\00:01:33.25
So we're
thankful for Your grace.
00:01:33.29\00:01:34.62
And we pray, Lord,
00:01:34.66\00:01:35.99
for Your Holy
Spirit to be with us
00:01:36.02\00:01:37.36
in all that we say and do,
00:01:37.39\00:01:38.99
this we ask in Your precious
and wonderful name, Amen.
00:01:39.03\00:01:41.86
Amen.
00:01:41.90\00:01:43.23
Thank you so
much. You may be seated.
00:01:43.26\00:01:44.60
I wonder what James
White would think about
00:01:50.01\00:01:53.44
the Adventist Review today.
00:01:53.48\00:01:56.54
And I ask that because the
more I learn about James White,
00:01:56.58\00:01:59.58
the more I realize
00:01:59.61\00:02:01.08
this young man was an innovator,
00:02:01.12\00:02:04.45
a disrupter to the extreme.
00:02:04.49\00:02:08.69
And he had to have that courage
to look for new technologies,
00:02:08.72\00:02:12.96
new ways to get this message,
that he fell in love with,
00:02:12.99\00:02:17.17
out to the world.
00:02:17.20\00:02:19.10
And so we ask
that question sometimes
00:02:19.13\00:02:22.07
of are we doing
perhaps what James White
00:02:22.10\00:02:25.17
would be thinking
on that bleeding edge
00:02:25.21\00:02:27.34
of technology and ideas.
00:02:27.38\00:02:30.08
And so some of the ways
in which we're doing that,
00:02:30.11\00:02:32.31
one of them you'll
see on the screen now,
00:02:32.35\00:02:34.32
is a virtual reality
experience of David and Goliath.
00:02:34.35\00:02:39.52
We're excited to be
sharing it with some of you
00:02:39.55\00:02:42.26
if you come by
our booth here at ASI.
00:02:42.29\00:02:44.63
But we're
really excited to share
00:02:44.66\00:02:45.99
it with the
Pathfinders next weekend
00:02:46.03\00:02:48.03
starting in Oshkosh.
00:02:48.06\00:02:50.73
But that's not the
only thing we're up to.
00:02:50.77\00:02:52.53
We're also up to
on-demand video content.
00:02:52.57\00:02:56.64
We've got nearly
1,000 pieces of content,
00:02:56.67\00:02:59.44
Adventist valued content
on an on-demand video platform
00:02:59.47\00:03:04.18
that we invite you to check
out on any of the app stores.
00:03:04.21\00:03:06.85
We have a weekly show
that has just come out
00:03:06.88\00:03:08.72
with Cliff Goldstein and
Dwain Esmond talking about
00:03:08.75\00:03:11.82
issues that are current
and relevant to us today.
00:03:11.85\00:03:16.02
And last but not least,
we're working on some exciting
00:03:16.06\00:03:18.56
podcasts to
continue to reach people
00:03:18.59\00:03:21.13
in the most effective way
00:03:21.16\00:03:22.80
that they would
like to consume content.
00:03:22.83\00:03:25.07
But the thing that we've
been up to for 170 years,
00:03:25.10\00:03:29.20
I'm gonna ask Costin
to share it with you.
00:03:29.24\00:03:31.37
And you might not associate
this with Adventist Review,
00:03:31.41\00:03:34.18
but it is news.
00:03:34.21\00:03:36.85
One way that we're living
up to the vision of James White
00:03:36.88\00:03:39.71
is that for 170 years,
00:03:39.75\00:03:41.78
we have been the
primary distributor
00:03:41.82\00:03:44.15
of Adventist
news around the world.
00:03:44.19\00:03:46.76
In fact, last year, we
wrote and distributed over
00:03:46.79\00:03:50.43
700 news stories
covering 101 countries.
00:03:50.46\00:03:55.90
So we are really thrilled
to invite you to join us
00:03:55.93\00:04:00.00
to continue finding out
00:04:00.04\00:04:01.84
what's happening
around the world.
00:04:01.87\00:04:04.17
And we sometimes tackle
some challenging subjects.
00:04:04.21\00:04:07.08
We just wrote a story coming out
00:04:07.11\00:04:09.38
of the Third Lifestyle
and Health Global Conference
00:04:09.41\00:04:13.78
in Loma Linda called
"Adventists still live longer,
00:04:13.82\00:04:18.65
but not all
Adventists are the same," right?
00:04:18.69\00:04:22.09
So some Adventists
fall into the category
00:04:22.12\00:04:24.09
of living longer,
unfortunately, some don't.
00:04:24.13\00:04:26.39
So we tackle that subject.
00:04:26.43\00:04:28.46
So we invite you to
join us on this journey
00:04:28.50\00:04:31.60
to discover more about
Adventists around the world.
00:04:31.63\00:04:34.24
And together,
00:04:34.27\00:04:35.60
with the General Conference
Office of Communication,
00:04:35.64\00:04:37.91
we hope very much
to unveil very soon
00:04:37.94\00:04:40.44
a global infrastructure
that will allow us
00:04:40.48\00:04:43.95
to distribute
news around the world
00:04:43.98\00:04:46.41
in a collaborative
fashion much faster
00:04:46.45\00:04:48.95
than we've done in the
past and in multiple languages
00:04:48.98\00:04:52.69
all around the world.
00:04:52.72\00:04:54.06
So that's coming.
00:04:54.09\00:04:55.42
Join us on AdventistReview.org,
00:04:55.46\00:04:56.83
AdventistWorld.org for more news
00:04:56.86\00:04:58.99
from around the world.
00:04:59.03\00:05:02.03
For many of you,
00:05:02.06\00:05:03.70
Adventist Review
and now Adventist World,
00:05:03.73\00:05:06.37
for the last 14 years have
been a big part of your life.
00:05:06.40\00:05:11.14
But we realize as communicators
that you have to make
00:05:11.17\00:05:14.24
your messages clear, direct,
00:05:14.28\00:05:16.08
and simple if they're
going to be understood
00:05:16.11\00:05:18.48
in a very
confused media environment.
00:05:18.51\00:05:20.95
And so we made a
decision earlier this year
00:05:20.98\00:05:22.98
that across all our
platforms, Adventist World,
00:05:23.02\00:05:26.82
Adventist Review, KidsView,
podcasts, television on demand,
00:05:26.86\00:05:32.13
all of our print resources,
00:05:32.16\00:05:34.40
all of those are going to focus
on a single theme each month.
00:05:34.43\00:05:37.97
That theme The Church
I Want to Belong to Is,
00:05:38.00\00:05:42.07
and every month,
00:05:42.10\00:05:43.44
a descriptive
word will be in there.
00:05:43.47\00:05:45.44
July's was The Church I
Want to Belong to Is Healthy,
00:05:45.47\00:05:48.74
and it focused on
both personal health
00:05:48.78\00:05:51.21
and congregational health.
00:05:51.25\00:05:53.82
August, the copy that you
see in your delegate bag here,
00:05:53.85\00:05:58.32
The Church I Want to
Belong to Is Courageous.
00:05:58.35\00:06:00.96
What does it mean to
be a courageous church
00:06:00.99\00:06:03.43
in the 21st century?
00:06:03.46\00:06:05.29
And when you come to September,
00:06:05.33\00:06:06.66
The Church I Want
to Belong to Is Safe.
00:06:06.70\00:06:10.43
What is the safe church?
00:06:10.47\00:06:13.10
I convened a group of
top General Conference
00:06:13.13\00:06:16.00
departmental
directors six weeks ago
00:06:16.04\00:06:18.97
for a video conversation.
00:06:19.01\00:06:20.34
You're gonna find on our site
and you'll find that article
00:06:20.38\00:06:23.38
featured in our
print editions as well.
00:06:23.41\00:06:26.45
Listening to persons
from family ministries,
00:06:26.48\00:06:28.72
health ministries, ministerial,
and Adventist Review,
00:06:28.75\00:06:32.82
and legal talking about
00:06:32.85\00:06:34.49
how do we create
safe church environments.
00:06:34.52\00:06:37.09
Not just physically safe
but safe for the individual
00:06:37.13\00:06:40.40
who's broken, the
person who needs help.
00:06:40.43\00:06:43.47
We're in a dynamic environment
that we invite you to join us
00:06:43.50\00:06:46.30
on as we continued to
be both the oldest thing
00:06:46.33\00:06:50.27
and the newest
thing in Adventism.
00:06:50.31\00:06:52.41
Christiane is
joining me tonight.
00:06:55.91\00:06:57.41
Christiane,
where do you come from?
00:06:57.45\00:07:00.55
I'm living in Switzerland.
00:07:00.58\00:07:01.92
Switzerland.
00:07:01.95\00:07:03.28
So Christiane is the
president for ASI Europe.
00:07:03.32\00:07:04.99
Thank you for
joining us tonight.
00:07:05.02\00:07:06.59
We're kind of doing a
follow-up report on something
00:07:06.62\00:07:08.52
we did last year.
00:07:08.56\00:07:10.03
We invited our ASI
family to go and participate
00:07:10.06\00:07:13.19
in evangelism in where?
00:07:13.23\00:07:15.40
In France.
00:07:15.43\00:07:17.30
France...
00:07:17.33\00:07:18.67
I can't get that
accent exactly right,
00:07:18.70\00:07:20.34
but that's beautiful.
00:07:20.37\00:07:22.27
In France.
00:07:22.30\00:07:23.64
What city?
00:07:23.67\00:07:25.27
Around Paris.
00:07:25.31\00:07:27.21
Probably one of
the most secular cities
00:07:27.24\00:07:29.44
in the entire world there.
00:07:29.48\00:07:31.75
Christiane, your goal
was to go in as ASI Europe
00:07:31.78\00:07:35.55
and do some evangelism.
00:07:35.58\00:07:36.92
How many series of
meetings were you able to do?
00:07:36.95\00:07:40.26
We were able to contribute...
00:07:40.29\00:07:43.22
We work closely
together with the Federation.
00:07:43.26\00:07:45.09
Yes.
00:07:45.13\00:07:46.46
And we supported the Federation
00:07:46.49\00:07:47.83
that they went
beyond their plans.
00:07:47.86\00:07:50.70
They planned 20
sites and, by our support,
00:07:50.73\00:07:54.50
they decided to go beyond,
almost to 100, to 97 sites.
00:07:54.54\00:07:59.97
Ninety-seven different
places where evangelism
00:08:00.01\00:08:03.08
was being proclaimed
near the city of Paris.
00:08:03.11\00:08:05.85
That's amazing.
00:08:05.88\00:08:07.22
In Paris and around Paris,
00:08:07.25\00:08:08.58
a diameter of
approximately 120 miles.
00:08:08.62\00:08:12.09
Wow! That is amazing.
00:08:12.12\00:08:14.22
So tell us, Christiane,
00:08:14.26\00:08:15.92
what was the result
of this effort there?
00:08:15.96\00:08:18.83
Does evangelism still work
00:08:18.86\00:08:21.16
and what tools were
you using to get this done?
00:08:21.20\00:08:25.07
We were using, for instance,
00:08:25.10\00:08:27.44
the New Beginnings material
in order to prepare the ground.
00:08:27.47\00:08:31.14
We had Barbara Taylor
coming to train people.
00:08:31.17\00:08:33.74
Amen.
00:08:33.78\00:08:35.11
The results, 500 souls
getting and got baptized.
00:08:35.14\00:08:39.78
Amen.
00:08:39.81\00:08:41.15
Hallelujah.
00:08:41.18\00:08:42.52
Can you say Amen?
00:08:42.55\00:08:43.89
Five hundred souls baptized
in these series of meetings,
00:08:43.92\00:08:48.22
almost hundred series
of meetings all around
00:08:48.26\00:08:50.93
the area of Paris, France.
00:08:50.96\00:08:53.09
Thank you for your
leadership, Christiane.
00:08:53.13\00:08:55.40
May God be
praised for the results
00:08:55.43\00:08:58.33
of this evangelism effort
00:08:58.37\00:09:00.97
in the very
secular country of Europe.
00:09:01.00\00:09:03.51
Thank you so much.
00:09:03.54\00:09:04.87
Thank you. All right.
00:09:04.91\00:09:08.34
You know, sometimes we
make the mistake of actually
00:09:08.38\00:09:10.35
believing we know
where we're heading
00:09:10.38\00:09:12.98
without seeking
after the proper advice.
00:09:13.01\00:09:15.55
Come join at Think Tank
with a purpose, a mission.
00:09:15.58\00:09:18.85
You may actually
find some clarity.
00:09:18.89\00:09:20.89
I'll see you there.
00:09:20.92\00:09:22.52
O the deep
00:09:34.97\00:09:37.91
deep love of Jesus
00:09:37.94\00:09:43.61
Vast, unmeasured
00:09:43.65\00:09:48.05
Boundless, free
00:09:48.08\00:09:52.42
Rolling
00:09:52.45\00:09:53.79
As a mighty ocean
00:09:53.82\00:10:00.80
In its fullness
00:10:00.83\00:10:05.00
Over me
00:10:05.03\00:10:10.97
Underneath me
00:10:11.01\00:10:15.21
All around me
00:10:15.24\00:10:19.48
He is the current
00:10:19.51\00:10:23.69
Of His love
00:10:23.72\00:10:27.92
Leading onward
00:10:27.96\00:10:32.19
Leading homeward
00:10:32.23\00:10:36.63
To thy glorious
00:10:36.67\00:10:40.94
Rest above
00:10:40.97\00:10:46.41
O the deep
00:11:04.66\00:11:07.50
Deep love of Jesus
00:11:07.53\00:11:12.80
'Tis heaven
00:11:12.83\00:11:17.11
Of heavens to me
00:11:17.14\00:11:21.21
And it lifts me
00:11:21.24\00:11:25.65
Up to glory
00:11:25.68\00:11:29.88
For it lifts me
00:11:29.92\00:11:34.22
Up to thee
00:11:34.26\00:11:40.46
O the deep
00:11:40.50\00:11:43.37
Deep love of Jesus
00:11:43.40\00:11:49.37
Spread His praise from shore
00:11:49.40\00:11:54.88
To shore
00:11:54.91\00:11:58.28
How he loveth
00:11:58.31\00:12:02.62
Ever loveth
00:12:02.65\00:12:06.89
Changeth never
00:12:06.92\00:12:11.46
Nevermore
00:12:11.49\00:12:17.20
Good evening, ASI.
00:12:22.80\00:12:25.01
We're happy to be
here this evening.
00:12:25.04\00:12:26.68
Good evening, everyone.
00:12:26.71\00:12:28.41
We're glad that you've come out.
00:12:28.44\00:12:30.48
We're glad that
you're here to hear
00:12:30.51\00:12:32.08
how people are sharing Christ
00:12:32.11\00:12:34.48
and different ministry
opportunities that we have.
00:12:34.52\00:12:37.45
So we have three
people that are gonna
00:12:37.49\00:12:38.89
share this evening.
00:12:38.92\00:12:40.26
We're glad that
you've joined us,
00:12:40.29\00:12:41.62
each of you.
00:12:41.66\00:12:42.99
Thank you very much.
00:12:43.02\00:12:44.36
We have Johnny, we have Jesse,
00:12:44.39\00:12:45.73
and we have Jim
Burr as well with us.
00:12:45.76\00:12:47.66
So thank you so much
for being here this evening.
00:12:47.70\00:12:50.27
And we'd like to
get right into it
00:12:50.30\00:12:52.80
and talk to Johnny Suarez a
little bit about Pan De Vida.
00:12:52.83\00:12:57.41
So could you tell
us a little bit about
00:12:57.44\00:12:59.34
what the ministry is all about?
00:12:59.37\00:13:00.94
Sure.
00:13:00.98\00:13:02.44
I've been a member of
ASI for 11 years, 2008.
00:13:02.48\00:13:05.88
This is the first time I share
a little bit about what we do.
00:13:05.91\00:13:09.32
We started a
little group called GYC.
00:13:09.35\00:13:11.59
Some of you may be
acquainted with that in 2002.
00:13:11.62\00:13:14.32
And that's kind of
00:13:14.36\00:13:15.69
how I became
familiarized with ASI.
00:13:15.72\00:13:19.29
And we started a
multimedia company
00:13:19.33\00:13:21.16
called Pan De Vida Productions,
00:13:21.20\00:13:22.53
where we would license material
00:13:22.56\00:13:23.93
from a variety of
Adventist speakers,
00:13:23.97\00:13:26.10
Pastor David
Asscherick, Henry Wright,
00:13:26.13\00:13:28.64
and also Alejandro BullA n.
00:13:28.67\00:13:30.57
And that's how we began
producing multimedia materials
00:13:30.61\00:13:33.11
in audio, and video, and print.
00:13:33.14\00:13:34.68
And then from there,
00:13:34.71\00:13:36.04
we started doing some
distribution elsewhere.
00:13:36.08\00:13:37.41
Wonderful.
00:13:37.45\00:13:38.78
So were you connected with
ASI right in the very beginning
00:13:38.81\00:13:40.88
of your ministry
when you started?
00:13:40.92\00:13:42.38
Not initially.
00:13:42.42\00:13:43.75
It wasn't until 2008
that we started seeing
00:13:43.79\00:13:45.55
the possibilities of networking
with other organizations
00:13:45.59\00:13:47.66
that were doing similar things.
00:13:47.69\00:13:49.32
And we thought, "Well,
let's go ahead and join them
00:13:49.36\00:13:51.49
and figure out
how we can communicate
00:13:51.53\00:13:53.16
the gospel of Jesus
Christ through multimedia."
00:13:53.19\00:13:55.66
And that's kind of how we began.
00:13:55.70\00:13:57.03
Wonderful.
00:13:57.07\00:13:58.40
Okay, so you made a connection
with ASI and GYC as well
00:13:58.43\00:14:01.10
and kind of even helping
to start that organization.
00:14:01.14\00:14:03.97
That's right.
00:14:04.01\00:14:05.34
So tell us a little bit
because my understanding
00:14:05.37\00:14:07.78
is that people seem to be
reading a little bit less,
00:14:07.81\00:14:10.48
there may be also...
00:14:10.51\00:14:11.85
There's so many media
choices out there today
00:14:11.88\00:14:13.48
that it's sometimes hard
for people to know, how to,
00:14:13.52\00:14:16.48
what to choose.
00:14:16.52\00:14:17.85
How did you find your niche?
00:14:17.89\00:14:19.22
Yeah, so it's very interesting.
00:14:19.25\00:14:20.59
You know, people are reading
a lot less like you said,
00:14:20.62\00:14:23.02
you have Hulu, you
have Netflix, you have,
00:14:23.06\00:14:25.49
you know, YouTube.
00:14:25.53\00:14:26.86
So we thought to ourselves,
"What can we do to perhaps
00:14:26.90\00:14:29.66
stay along the same line
of what we're already doing
00:14:29.70\00:14:31.47
but maybe make it differently?"
00:14:31.50\00:14:33.94
And so the idea was,
why don't we take them
00:14:33.97\00:14:35.90
to the very places that
the preachers talk about?
00:14:35.94\00:14:38.27
So maybe we can go over to Rome
if we talk about the Romans,
00:14:38.31\00:14:41.94
maybe we can go over to
the area of the Waldensians.
00:14:41.98\00:14:44.51
So we decided to create
these faith based excursions,
00:14:44.55\00:14:47.72
and tours, and travel.
00:14:47.75\00:14:49.88
And we thought to ourselves,
"How nice would it be?"
00:14:49.92\00:14:51.82
For example, we go to
Rome and we go to the Catacombs
00:14:51.85\00:14:54.16
and we'll also visit
the Mamertine Prison.
00:14:54.19\00:14:56.32
So we'll go down
into the dungeon cell
00:14:56.36\00:14:57.73
and we'll imagine what
it would have been like
00:14:57.76\00:14:59.46
for Paul to have his
hands tied, his feet shackled,
00:14:59.49\00:15:02.76
the stench of human
waste all around him.
00:15:02.80\00:15:04.93
And a Roman guard
standing at attention waiting
00:15:04.97\00:15:06.80
for the call to take him
out and cut off his head.
00:15:06.84\00:15:09.74
And yet he's writing
to the people in Ephesus
00:15:09.77\00:15:11.27
and he says things like,
00:15:11.31\00:15:13.14
"We are seated in
heavenly places with God."
00:15:13.17\00:15:16.41
How can a man say
00:15:16.44\00:15:17.78
that he's seated
in heavenly places
00:15:17.81\00:15:19.15
with God when he's
about to lose his head?
00:15:19.18\00:15:21.65
Well, he had hope
in something bigger,
00:15:21.68\00:15:23.82
and better, and bolder,
00:15:23.85\00:15:25.19
and more beautiful that
God had in store with him.
00:15:25.22\00:15:27.36
So taking people to these
sites makes them re-experience
00:15:27.39\00:15:30.73
those things in
a way that perhaps
00:15:30.76\00:15:32.09
they've never done before.
00:15:32.13\00:15:33.46
So that's very interesting.
00:15:33.50\00:15:34.83
So at the beginning,
you were kind of saying
00:15:34.86\00:15:36.36
that you're
doing productions here,
00:15:36.40\00:15:37.73
but now you're
mentioning the fact
00:15:37.77\00:15:39.13
that you're actually
bringing people to these sites.
00:15:39.17\00:15:41.60
So how did that all come about?
00:15:41.64\00:15:43.20
And what are you...
00:15:43.24\00:15:44.57
How does that actually
play into your ministry now?
00:15:44.61\00:15:46.61
That's a great question.
00:15:46.64\00:15:47.98
So many of the people
that come with us are not
00:15:48.01\00:15:50.68
Seventh-day
Adventist Christians, right?
00:15:50.71\00:15:52.05
Okay.
00:15:52.08\00:15:53.42
So we have some
people that are coming
00:15:53.45\00:15:54.78
that are Baptists,
that are Methodists.
00:15:54.82\00:15:56.65
A couple months ago, we
have a registration form
00:15:56.69\00:15:58.75
and we received the
register form for two people
00:15:58.79\00:16:00.79
that wanted to go on our tours.
00:16:00.82\00:16:02.52
And they put
in, they're atheists
00:16:02.56\00:16:04.56
and then the
spouse said Buddhist.
00:16:04.59\00:16:06.73
And we thought
to ourselves, "What?
00:16:06.76\00:16:08.10
This is really strange."
00:16:08.13\00:16:09.53
Normally, people
spend money trying
00:16:09.56\00:16:12.73
to have evangelistic crusades
and paying thousands of dollars
00:16:12.77\00:16:15.14
to try to bring
people to church.
00:16:15.17\00:16:16.74
But here are two people
who are giving us the funds
00:16:16.77\00:16:19.94
for two weeks for us
to preach them the gospel
00:16:19.97\00:16:22.01
and tell them
about Jesus Christ.
00:16:22.04\00:16:23.38
We thought, "Wow!
00:16:23.41\00:16:24.75
This is an amazing
opportunity to tell people
00:16:24.78\00:16:27.08
about the story of
Christianity in a winsome way."
00:16:27.12\00:16:29.75
And this is because friends,
families, and even neighbors.
00:16:29.78\00:16:32.59
We've met Seventh-day Adventists
00:16:32.62\00:16:34.42
who bring their neighbors
who are not Christians and say,
00:16:34.46\00:16:37.19
"I don't want to
go to your church,
00:16:37.23\00:16:38.56
I don't want Bible studies,
00:16:38.59\00:16:39.93
but I would
love to go to Europe.
00:16:39.96\00:16:41.30
And I'll go with you
because you seem like
00:16:41.33\00:16:42.66
a nice guy."
00:16:42.70\00:16:44.03
And there's an
opportunity for soul winning,
00:16:44.07\00:16:45.60
for evangelism, and
for sharing the gospel.
00:16:45.63\00:16:47.10
Absolutely.
00:16:47.14\00:16:48.47
And when people invest
in something they value
00:16:48.50\00:16:50.24
what they've
invested in as well,
00:16:50.27\00:16:51.81
so that makes an
impact on them spiritually.
00:16:51.84\00:16:54.14
That's wonderful. Absolutely.
00:16:54.18\00:16:55.58
What about millennials?
00:16:55.61\00:16:57.48
We've heard that millennials
actually are more interested
00:16:57.51\00:17:02.08
in the experiences that
they can have rather than
00:17:02.12\00:17:05.29
maybe being so
interested in material things.
00:17:05.32\00:17:07.92
Tell us a little bit
more about that phenomenon
00:17:07.96\00:17:11.13
and how your ministry
reaches out to that need.
00:17:11.16\00:17:15.06
Great question.
00:17:15.10\00:17:16.43
So there's this thing,
some of you may have heard,
00:17:16.46\00:17:17.80
it's called FOMO,
fear of missing out.
00:17:17.83\00:17:21.07
And they're finding all
this interesting statistics
00:17:21.10\00:17:23.00
where young people
are more interested
00:17:23.04\00:17:25.64
in experiences than
actual material goods.
00:17:25.67\00:17:28.24
And that seems a little
strange and counterintuitive
00:17:28.28\00:17:30.78
to what we think
millennials want.
00:17:30.81\00:17:33.28
But we're finding
that it is better for them
00:17:33.31\00:17:35.48
and they're happier
when they go to the places
00:17:35.52\00:17:38.12
that you talk about as
opposed to just giving them
00:17:38.15\00:17:40.46
material possessions.
00:17:40.49\00:17:41.99
So one of the things that
we're doing at Pan De Vida
00:17:42.02\00:17:43.73
is we're creating
tours and excursions
00:17:43.76\00:17:46.39
for people to go,
particularly our young people
00:17:46.43\00:17:48.73
to become
familiarized and acquainted
00:17:48.76\00:17:51.13
with the truth of the Bible.
00:17:51.17\00:17:52.73
And all of our
tours, we use the Bible
00:17:52.77\00:17:54.14
and the Spirit of Prophecy,
00:17:54.17\00:17:55.50
the first 12
chapters of the book,
00:17:55.54\00:17:56.87
Great Controversy, for
them to visit those sites.
00:17:56.91\00:17:59.41
And now be able to forge
an identity with who they are
00:17:59.44\00:18:02.78
as Seventh-day
Adventist Christians
00:18:02.81\00:18:04.51
and who they are
as Bible believing
00:18:04.55\00:18:06.61
followers of Jesus Christ.
00:18:06.65\00:18:08.05
Wonderful.
00:18:08.08\00:18:09.42
So how can people get involved
in helping your ministry
00:18:09.45\00:18:12.75
or in collaborating
with your ministry?
00:18:12.79\00:18:15.09
So there's a few
things you can do.
00:18:15.12\00:18:16.59
Number one, you
can swing by our booth,
00:18:16.62\00:18:17.99
we're in booth 735.
00:18:18.03\00:18:19.89
So if you're over
there by the booth area,
00:18:19.93\00:18:21.60
please feel free to swing by.
00:18:21.63\00:18:23.83
Number two, you can pray for us.
00:18:23.87\00:18:25.30
Keep us in your prayers.
00:18:25.33\00:18:26.87
Number three, we
have many adults,
00:18:26.90\00:18:29.64
some that are a little
bit better off financially,
00:18:29.67\00:18:31.97
who sponsor young people.
00:18:32.01\00:18:33.58
We're offering
matching funds from Pan De Vida
00:18:33.61\00:18:36.41
to keep those costs at
a very reasonable amount.
00:18:36.44\00:18:38.91
And they can
invite those friends
00:18:38.95\00:18:40.85
and particularly
those young people,
00:18:40.88\00:18:42.22
those millennials that
perhaps otherwise wouldn't go
00:18:42.25\00:18:44.95
to be able to
join us on these trips.
00:18:44.99\00:18:46.79
We invite you to
come, we're in booth 735,
00:18:46.82\00:18:49.32
and we hope that you can
be a part of that as well.
00:18:49.36\00:18:51.66
Okay. Wonderful.
00:18:51.69\00:18:53.03
Thank you so much for sharing.
00:18:53.06\00:18:54.40
We appreciate you being
here with us this evening.
00:18:54.43\00:18:57.63
So I am very excited
that you're here, Jim Burr,
00:18:57.67\00:19:01.24
because I actually
went to school with your son
00:19:01.27\00:19:03.71
here back in Oklahoma
Academy, a long time ago.
00:19:03.74\00:19:06.27
Wow.
00:19:06.31\00:19:07.64
And so it's nice to be
with you here on the stage
00:19:07.68\00:19:10.05
and to be able to share
00:19:10.08\00:19:11.41
some of the ways
that you've reached out.
00:19:11.45\00:19:14.62
And I think what's
really exciting about
00:19:14.65\00:19:17.15
meeting with you
and discussing with you
00:19:17.19\00:19:18.99
is how you look for
all kinds of different ways
00:19:19.02\00:19:21.22
to share the gospel,
00:19:21.26\00:19:22.86
share science from
a creation perspective
00:19:22.89\00:19:26.33
with people that you meet.
00:19:26.36\00:19:28.16
Yes, I try to pray
before I get on an airplane.
00:19:28.20\00:19:30.33
Lord, is there somebody
here you want me to visit with?
00:19:30.37\00:19:33.10
I was traveling to
Atlanta, that's three hours.
00:19:33.13\00:19:34.97
And the lady next
to me is a doctor.
00:19:35.00\00:19:37.04
And I've got my telescope,
00:19:37.07\00:19:38.81
my computer out
with astronomy pictures,
00:19:38.84\00:19:40.58
and people will pick up on that,
00:19:40.61\00:19:41.94
and she starts
commenting or questioning
00:19:41.98\00:19:43.61
and what's this about.
00:19:43.65\00:19:44.98
And I started sharing
little tidbits of God,
00:19:45.01\00:19:47.02
and the heaven's with
her, and then she says,
00:19:47.05\00:19:49.58
"You know, I
haven't been a good mother.
00:19:49.62\00:19:51.22
I did not teach my
two sons about God."
00:19:51.25\00:19:54.59
And I said to her,
"Well, you know what?
00:19:54.62\00:19:56.32
I've got this little Bible study
00:19:56.36\00:19:57.86
from United Prison Ministries.
00:19:57.89\00:20:00.23
There are 25 Bible lessons
you can teach your sons here."
00:20:00.26\00:20:04.37
And I gave her a
video on Daniel 2
00:20:04.40\00:20:06.13
and I gave her 4
programs on astronomy,
00:20:06.17\00:20:08.27
half-hour programs.
00:20:08.30\00:20:09.67
This lady said,
00:20:09.70\00:20:11.04
"I think God wanted me
sit next to you on the plane."
00:20:11.07\00:20:13.21
That's thrilling. Yes.
00:20:13.24\00:20:14.94
And then I took
my car in for service
00:20:14.98\00:20:16.44
at the Grease Monkey,
man, to get an oil change.
00:20:16.48\00:20:18.85
And he comes by,
he gives me the keys.
00:20:18.88\00:20:20.28
"Your car is ready to go,
00:20:20.32\00:20:21.65
but I like your
reading material."
00:20:21.68\00:20:23.05
So, folks...
00:20:23.08\00:20:24.42
Where did he find
your reading material?
00:20:24.45\00:20:25.79
Well, I had reading...
00:20:25.82\00:20:27.16
So when you take
your car for a service,
00:20:27.19\00:20:28.52
leave some
reading materials there.
00:20:28.56\00:20:29.89
There you go.
00:20:29.92\00:20:31.26
God may do something with that.
00:20:31.29\00:20:32.63
That has touched.
00:20:32.66\00:20:34.00
We can count 200
lives that's touched.
00:20:34.03\00:20:35.36
Wow.
00:20:35.40\00:20:36.73
I said at the
Grease, if that's the case,
00:20:36.77\00:20:38.10
I've got two
videos that go along with
00:20:38.13\00:20:39.47
what you're reading there.
00:20:39.50\00:20:40.90
So I take him to...
00:20:40.94\00:20:42.27
My office is
just half a mile away.
00:20:42.30\00:20:44.07
I take him two videos.
00:20:44.11\00:20:45.47
Every time I go
I take him a video,
00:20:45.51\00:20:46.84
my wife takes him a video.
00:20:46.88\00:20:48.21
And after about
10 videos, he says,
00:20:48.24\00:20:49.58
"I have watched
everything you've given me.
00:20:49.61\00:20:51.45
There's nothing on
television, but let me tell you,
00:20:51.48\00:20:54.02
you gave me a video
on Daniel 2 and Hitler."
00:20:54.05\00:20:58.39
He says, "I gave
that to an atheist friend.
00:20:58.42\00:21:00.62
He has watched it over
and over and over again."
00:21:00.66\00:21:03.79
I said, "If that's the
case, I got two more videos.
00:21:03.83\00:21:06.03
He has got to
see David Asscherick,
00:21:06.06\00:21:08.33
Pascal's Wager and
What Wondrous Love."
00:21:08.36\00:21:11.53
Today, the Grease Monkey
man, if you visit his car,
00:21:11.57\00:21:14.14
he has on his reading
rack these Bible study guides,
00:21:14.17\00:21:18.27
Take Me Home it
says on the front
00:21:18.31\00:21:19.71
the passage is on the back.
00:21:19.74\00:21:21.08
So leaving them in
your car was contagious,
00:21:21.11\00:21:22.68
now he's doing the same thing.
00:21:22.71\00:21:24.05
He's having them in his
shop and people can pick them up
00:21:24.08\00:21:27.35
as they come and visit
and get their car serviced.
00:21:27.38\00:21:28.98
This story has been...
This is almost two years old.
00:21:29.02\00:21:32.05
This year, I said, I'm
gonna count how many...
00:21:32.09\00:21:33.66
I don't have no idea.
00:21:33.69\00:21:35.02
Lord only knows
how many he gave away
00:21:35.06\00:21:36.39
this year.
00:21:36.42\00:21:37.76
He's already given
them 90 of these this week.
00:21:37.79\00:21:39.43
And the pastor's on the back,
00:21:39.46\00:21:40.80
you need a
prayer from the pastor,
00:21:40.83\00:21:42.23
if you need an
answer from the pastor.
00:21:42.26\00:21:43.87
And so that's
just exciting stuff.
00:21:43.90\00:21:45.23
Wonderful.
00:21:45.27\00:21:46.60
Why don't you tell us about
when you had the opportunity
00:21:46.63\00:21:48.67
to be the keynote
speaker of ASI over in Russia
00:21:48.70\00:21:52.04
and tell us about an experience
you had on a plane there?
00:21:52.07\00:21:54.71
About a year and a half ago,
00:21:54.74\00:21:56.08
I was speaking as a
keynote speaker at ASI.
00:21:56.11\00:21:57.65
We did 10 one-hour
shows at ASI Russia.
00:21:57.68\00:22:00.08
3ABN was aired and
recorded, broadcast.
00:22:00.12\00:22:01.95
They said 300 million
Russians can watch that.
00:22:01.98\00:22:05.29
Well, coming home from
Russia, I am on a plane.
00:22:05.32\00:22:07.56
Now the Lord, you know, I mean,
00:22:07.59\00:22:09.52
Delta tells who
you're gonna sit by,
00:22:09.56\00:22:11.06
but I think the Lord overrules.
00:22:11.09\00:22:12.43
He overrules.
00:22:12.46\00:22:13.96
Turns out, I'm sitting
by this high fashion model.
00:22:14.00\00:22:16.53
She's like high.
00:22:16.56\00:22:18.63
Before we even get to move,
barely get our seatbelts on,
00:22:18.67\00:22:21.50
she says, "How old are you?"
00:22:21.54\00:22:23.44
And I go, like
in perfect English,
00:22:23.47\00:22:25.11
"How old are you?"
00:22:25.14\00:22:26.47
I said, "I'm 80 years old."
00:22:26.51\00:22:27.84
She goes like, "What
are you doing in Russia?"
00:22:27.88\00:22:29.54
I said, "Well, I'm here talking
about astronomy in the Bible."
00:22:29.58\00:22:31.88
Then next words
out of her mouth.
00:22:31.91\00:22:33.31
She says,
00:22:33.35\00:22:35.18
"I just wasn't
gonna last 50 years."
00:22:35.22\00:22:37.69
And we start going
through last day events,
00:22:37.72\00:22:39.42
we go through Matthew 24.
00:22:39.45\00:22:41.62
And I gave her
the Bible study guide,
00:22:41.66\00:22:45.86
I gave her the DVD on astronomy,
00:22:45.89\00:22:49.63
and I have this video
on Hitler and Daniel 2.
00:22:49.66\00:22:54.17
And I explained to her that...
00:22:54.20\00:22:56.24
This happened in Hitler's
army with his pastor Hazo.
00:22:56.27\00:22:59.87
And she said, "Oh, us Russians,
00:22:59.91\00:23:02.41
we just love
learning about Hitler.
00:23:02.44\00:23:04.61
I want to give you a kiss,"
00:23:04.65\00:23:05.98
and she smacked
a kiss on my cheek.
00:23:06.01\00:23:07.68
It's that fast.
00:23:07.72\00:23:09.05
Now imagine an 80-year-old guy
00:23:09.08\00:23:10.42
getting a kiss on
an airplane, you know?
00:23:10.45\00:23:12.09
And she was so
excited to get this video.
00:23:12.12\00:23:15.22
And she says,
00:23:15.26\00:23:16.59
"I don't think your
wife's gonna be jealous."
00:23:16.62\00:23:17.96
Well, you know,
00:23:17.99\00:23:19.33
that's a
fascinating story for sure.
00:23:19.36\00:23:21.26
And there was another one
that really fascinated me.
00:23:21.30\00:23:23.70
And that's when
you had the opportunity
00:23:23.73\00:23:25.43
to explain to a
science teacher about a cell
00:23:25.47\00:23:28.47
and how much information
God has packed into the cell.
00:23:28.50\00:23:31.37
Tell us a little bit about that.
00:23:31.41\00:23:32.81
So I'm coming out of
SeaTac, Seattle-Tacoma.
00:23:32.84\00:23:35.11
And I've got my computer out.
00:23:35.14\00:23:36.48
And the guy
next to me goes like,
00:23:36.51\00:23:37.85
"Oh, you're doing a
seminar. What's the seminar on?"
00:23:37.88\00:23:39.51
I say, "Well,
astronomy in the Bible."
00:23:39.55\00:23:41.08
He goes like,
00:23:41.12\00:23:42.45
"How do you put the
Bible with astronomy?"
00:23:42.48\00:23:44.62
And I say, "Do
you believe in God?"
00:23:44.65\00:23:45.99
And he goes,
like, "Yeah, you know?"
00:23:46.02\00:23:48.52
And I said,
00:23:48.56\00:23:49.89
"Well, let me show
you the farthest galaxy.
00:23:49.92\00:23:51.86
Can you comprehend that
13 billion light years away?
00:23:51.89\00:23:54.30
Can you comprehend that?
00:23:54.33\00:23:55.66
Because the Bible in
Psalm 103 starting verse 10 says
00:23:55.70\00:23:58.33
that as high as the heavens are,
00:23:58.37\00:23:59.70
but that's how
great God's mercy is.
00:23:59.73\00:24:01.07
You cannot comprehend
how great God's mercy."
00:24:01.10\00:24:03.41
And we do... It's
a three-hour flight.
00:24:03.44\00:24:05.44
We do an hour and
a half on astronomy.
00:24:05.47\00:24:06.91
And then I said, "Let
me teach you biology."
00:24:06.94\00:24:10.08
I mean, he teaches this stuff
from a biblical perspective.
00:24:10.11\00:24:11.51
Okay. Right.
00:24:11.55\00:24:12.88
And I have this
pencil with a pin on.
00:24:12.91\00:24:14.95
There's this pin on
top, the head of the pin.
00:24:14.98\00:24:17.12
I said, "You realize
when you were conceived
00:24:17.15\00:24:18.75
you could fit on
the head of that pin?
00:24:18.79\00:24:20.76
And you realize that
00:24:20.79\00:24:22.12
that little cell
can copy your DNA?
00:24:22.16\00:24:24.03
In your DNA,
00:24:24.06\00:24:25.39
we have 6 billion letter
codes at a keyboard 50 years.
00:24:25.43\00:24:28.66
At a keyboard
for you to type out
00:24:28.70\00:24:30.13
the information in every
cell is a whole lifetime,
00:24:30.17\00:24:32.63
but this cell can
do it in 30 hours.
00:24:32.67\00:24:34.04
Do you see God in that?
00:24:34.07\00:24:35.47
And will you be
making mistakes?"
00:24:35.50\00:24:37.07
You know, yes.
00:24:37.11\00:24:38.44
"Well, your cell does too
00:24:38.47\00:24:39.81
because we live
in a polluted world,
00:24:39.84\00:24:41.18
because of free
radicals, carcinogens,
00:24:41.21\00:24:42.54
you didn't sleep good, you
didn't get enough exercise,
00:24:42.58\00:24:43.91
didn't had water
for those reasons
00:24:43.95\00:24:46.01
your cell will make
up to a million mistakes,
00:24:46.05\00:24:48.92
about 100,000 to
a million mistakes,
00:24:48.95\00:24:50.62
but you got a proofreader.
00:24:50.65\00:24:52.65
Just like your computer.
00:24:52.69\00:24:54.02
You put in a wrong
letter, it fixes it.
00:24:54.06\00:24:55.69
The proof is
there and it's gone,
00:24:55.72\00:24:57.33
it's there and it's gone.
00:24:57.36\00:24:58.79
You forget to put a comma in it,
00:24:58.83\00:25:00.16
you see it and it's gone, right?
00:25:00.20\00:25:02.06
You got the same
thing in your DNA.
00:25:02.10\00:25:03.90
Wow! Absolutely same thing.
00:25:03.93\00:25:05.33
And you have 50 genes
00:25:05.37\00:25:07.27
that are there
to fix the problem,
00:25:07.30\00:25:08.64
50 genes.
00:25:08.67\00:25:10.07
And so I said to the guy,
00:25:10.11\00:25:11.44
"You realize
that we got 30 hours,
00:25:11.47\00:25:12.84
but 3 things have to happen.
00:25:12.87\00:25:14.21
The cell has to copy your DNA,
00:25:14.24\00:25:15.74
the spellchecker has to
go through millions of pages
00:25:15.78\00:25:18.71
to find any mistakes,
00:25:18.75\00:25:20.08
the army comes in to fix it.
00:25:20.12\00:25:21.58
When they get done, one
in a billion get through.
00:25:21.62\00:25:23.89
And so in 30
hours, we have to copy it,
00:25:23.92\00:25:27.32
we have to find the problem,
we have to fix the problem.
00:25:27.36\00:25:29.72
And it took your scientists
00:25:29.76\00:25:31.33
13 years with
5,000 supercomputers
00:25:31.36\00:25:34.33
to sequence the human genome,
00:25:34.36\00:25:35.86
took thousands of scientists
00:25:35.90\00:25:37.23
13 years of
5,000 supercomputers."
00:25:37.27\00:25:39.43
And this guy was
like so blown away.
00:25:39.47\00:25:41.04
He knew this stuff,
00:25:41.07\00:25:42.40
he teaches this
stuff, and he goes like,
00:25:42.44\00:25:43.77
"Man, I never
thought about that."
00:25:43.81\00:25:45.74
Yes, amazing.
00:25:45.77\00:25:47.24
You know, you had a very
interesting visit recently.
00:25:47.28\00:25:49.38
I'd like you to just
close with this because,
00:25:49.41\00:25:52.11
you know, all of our children
went to the Ark Encounter today
00:25:52.15\00:25:56.79
and they had a wonderful time.
00:25:56.82\00:25:58.75
The biggest wood
structure in the world.
00:25:58.79\00:26:01.66
And you had the opportunity
of meeting with the founder,
00:26:01.69\00:26:05.53
the one that had
this idea Ken Ham.
00:26:05.56\00:26:07.83
Ken Ham.
00:26:07.86\00:26:09.20
Tell us a little bit
about that, just very briefly.
00:26:09.23\00:26:10.57
Yesterday 9 o'clock, I
had appointment with Ken Ham.
00:26:10.60\00:26:13.77
Two of his staff people
have been calling my office
00:26:13.80\00:26:15.74
saying we're
interested in the starlight work
00:26:15.77\00:26:17.74
you've done on
starlight and time.
00:26:17.77\00:26:19.47
And Danny Faulkner,
the chief astronomer,
00:26:19.51\00:26:21.81
at Answers in
Genesis called me up.
00:26:21.84\00:26:23.45
He says, "I knew about
JMI Telescope for decades.
00:26:23.48\00:26:26.11
I didn't know
you're a creationist."
00:26:26.15\00:26:27.75
I said, "Not only that,
I'm gonna be there Wednesday.
00:26:27.78\00:26:30.22
Well, I want to give you a tour.
00:26:30.25\00:26:31.59
You text me when
you get to the gate.
00:26:31.62\00:26:33.29
I want to take you and give
you a free tour of the museum."
00:26:33.32\00:26:35.66
And I said, "Text back,
can I meet with Ken Ham?"
00:26:35.69\00:26:39.26
And he says,
00:26:39.29\00:26:40.63
"Nine o'clock you got
an appointment with Ken."
00:26:40.66\00:26:42.13
Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock,
00:26:42.16\00:26:43.50
we spent about,
00:26:43.53\00:26:44.87
almost not quite 15
minutes with Ken Ham.
00:26:44.90\00:26:47.40
And I gave him...
00:26:47.44\00:26:49.04
And I got to shorten this,
00:26:49.07\00:26:50.41
but do you know
00:26:50.44\00:26:51.77
Ellen White has the
only answer for dinosaurs?
00:26:51.81\00:26:54.78
Creationists have no answers,
evolutionists have no answers.
00:26:54.81\00:26:57.81
So many
questions, so many problems.
00:26:57.85\00:26:59.71
I said to Ken Ham...
00:26:59.75\00:27:01.85
The Bible says in
Acts 2 and Genesis 2,
00:27:01.88\00:27:03.99
in the last days
he's gonna have prophets.
00:27:04.02\00:27:05.99
I said, "Ken,
look at what I found.
00:27:06.02\00:27:08.32
This little book
written 133 years ago."
00:27:08.36\00:27:11.89
And I read to him what she says.
00:27:11.93\00:27:14.20
Basically, the
dinosaurs were hybrids.
00:27:14.23\00:27:19.10
You know, we know what
GMO is. Hybrids were GMOed.
00:27:19.13\00:27:23.24
They were genetically modified.
00:27:23.27\00:27:24.67
Lizards, alligators,
ostriches, chickens, and birds,
00:27:24.71\00:27:27.38
and we can see that.
00:27:27.41\00:27:28.74
And she has the answer.
00:27:28.78\00:27:30.11
They were not in
the Garden of Eden.
00:27:30.15\00:27:31.48
They were not on the Ark.
00:27:31.51\00:27:32.85
And we have a
video out there in...
00:27:32.88\00:27:34.95
Brought 400 with Feed my Lambs.
00:27:38.35\00:27:40.62
We've got a video...
00:27:40.66\00:27:41.99
If you want a
video on Ellen White
00:27:42.02\00:27:43.36
and the
dinosaurs, you have 10 bucks,
00:27:43.39\00:27:44.73
and we got a
whole box of book there.
00:27:44.76\00:27:46.09
Thank you so much for sharing.
We really appreciate that.
00:27:46.13\00:27:48.76
And you'll be in our prayers
as you continue to share.
00:27:48.80\00:27:50.77
Thank you. Thank you.
00:27:50.80\00:27:52.13
Jesse, we're so happy
you're here this evening.
00:27:52.17\00:27:53.67
Thank you.
00:27:53.70\00:27:55.04
Jesse Zwiker is here with us.
00:27:55.07\00:27:57.37
And he has a project
that's called Ellen4all.
00:27:57.41\00:28:01.04
I like that name.
00:28:01.08\00:28:02.41
In fact, that
kind of give us an idea
00:28:02.44\00:28:03.81
of maybe what it's all about.
00:28:03.85\00:28:06.11
And in fact, why
don't you tell us
00:28:06.15\00:28:07.52
just briefly and then
we'll roll some slides
00:28:07.55\00:28:09.72
and talk about it.
00:28:09.75\00:28:11.65
So Ellen4all, the name says it,
00:28:11.69\00:28:14.52
it's Ellen White for
all kindreds, tongues,
00:28:14.56\00:28:19.13
tribes, and people.
00:28:19.16\00:28:20.70
So the project is
about crowd-translating,
00:28:20.73\00:28:26.77
kind of like crowd funding,
00:28:26.80\00:28:28.87
you know, where
everybody can contribute
00:28:28.90\00:28:30.27
a little bit and it
starts to really build up,
00:28:30.31\00:28:32.94
but crowd-translating,
00:28:32.97\00:28:34.38
so everybody
contributes to translate
00:28:34.41\00:28:37.05
Ellen White's writings
into their native tongue.
00:28:37.08\00:28:39.98
Well, that sounds
like a very innovative way
00:28:40.02\00:28:42.12
to be able to get more
of the Spirit of Prophecy
00:28:42.15\00:28:44.55
translated into many languages.
00:28:44.59\00:28:46.55
Well, you know, Ellen White,
00:28:46.59\00:28:48.76
I believe was one of the most
innovative people in her time.
00:28:48.79\00:28:53.66
And so I believe that
00:28:53.70\00:28:55.13
this is part of
what we're called to do
00:28:55.16\00:28:58.90
is to do stuff like that.
00:28:58.93\00:29:00.74
And I think that to
get into 55 languages,
00:29:00.77\00:29:05.74
which is our goal
now in partnership
00:29:05.77\00:29:08.81
with the White
Estate to do that is really,
00:29:08.84\00:29:12.61
you know, it's a
lot of languages.
00:29:12.65\00:29:14.38
And if we do this
in a traditional way,
00:29:14.42\00:29:16.69
it's gonna be very
slow to get there. Right.
00:29:16.72\00:29:20.16
Yes, exactly.
00:29:20.19\00:29:21.52
So why don't we look
at some of the slides
00:29:21.56\00:29:22.99
that you want to
show us that tell us
00:29:23.02\00:29:24.36
a little bit more
about the project,
00:29:24.39\00:29:26.29
and you can explain to us
a little bit more in depth.
00:29:26.33\00:29:30.83
Yeah. So on the...
00:29:30.87\00:29:34.84
Yes, the slide that you can see,
00:29:34.87\00:29:36.67
you can really see that
the most translated language
00:29:36.71\00:29:40.44
is actually
Spanish and Portuguese
00:29:40.48\00:29:43.21
that we have for
Ellen White's writings.
00:29:43.24\00:29:45.35
And you just realize
00:29:45.38\00:29:46.95
that even though that
represents about 100 books
00:29:46.98\00:29:50.19
that they've translated,
00:29:50.22\00:29:51.65
it's still only
about 25% of everything
00:29:51.69\00:29:55.89
that Ellen White has written.
00:29:55.92\00:29:58.33
So really...
00:29:58.36\00:30:00.23
For me the worst part
of the whole statistic
00:30:03.33\00:30:06.57
is that over 700 languages
have less than 1% translated.
00:30:06.60\00:30:11.47
They've got maybe
one book or a few books,
00:30:11.51\00:30:14.94
you know, and
none of the stuff that,
00:30:14.98\00:30:19.55
for me, was
really important in like
00:30:19.58\00:30:21.58
getting into the
work of ASI and Madison,
00:30:21.62\00:30:24.82
and self-supporting,
and any of that,
00:30:24.85\00:30:26.69
you know, lay involvement
and total member involvement,
00:30:26.72\00:30:29.52
a lot of these
things are not translated,
00:30:29.56\00:30:31.99
so it obviously
impacts the church.
00:30:32.03\00:30:34.26
And so this was
really my burden.
00:30:34.30\00:30:36.93
My background is in translation.
00:30:36.97\00:30:39.10
We have a translation
ministry, Crosslingo.
00:30:39.13\00:30:41.67
And so we were like,
00:30:41.70\00:30:43.27
"Hey, why don't
we translate this
00:30:43.30\00:30:45.11
with the way we
translate everything else?"
00:30:45.14\00:30:47.31
You know, we translate books
00:30:47.34\00:30:48.68
for other
ministries and so forth,
00:30:48.71\00:30:50.28
but we realized this will cost
00:30:50.31\00:30:52.35
millions and millions of dollars
00:30:52.38\00:30:54.22
to translate all of this content
00:30:54.25\00:30:56.35
into 55, let alone,
00:30:56.38\00:30:58.89
you know, 700 languages.
00:30:58.92\00:31:00.26
So we're like we
need a new approach.
00:31:00.29\00:31:02.69
Okay.
00:31:02.72\00:31:04.06
And so this is where
we can't figure it out.
00:31:04.09\00:31:05.59
Okay, well,
00:31:05.63\00:31:06.96
let's learn from
the crowd technology
00:31:07.00\00:31:10.10
that's out there.
00:31:10.13\00:31:11.47
And we just use a process,
00:31:11.50\00:31:15.10
you know, to really help monitor
00:31:15.14\00:31:18.24
the translators
that get on there
00:31:18.27\00:31:20.04
to really improve
the quality as they go
00:31:20.08\00:31:21.98
and we get some
to translate here
00:31:22.01\00:31:25.21
as you can see on the picture.
00:31:25.25\00:31:27.95
You know, some they translate it
00:31:27.98\00:31:31.05
and then we have
professionals that review it,
00:31:31.09\00:31:33.32
and then we have, finally,
00:31:33.36\00:31:34.76
you know, proofreaders
from approved entities,
00:31:34.79\00:31:39.43
you know, like publishing houses
00:31:39.46\00:31:40.80
and White Estate to approve
it for them to be uploaded
00:31:40.83\00:31:43.43
on the Ellen White...
00:31:43.47\00:31:45.67
At least make it
available online,
00:31:45.70\00:31:47.47
you know, to the people.
00:31:47.50\00:31:48.84
And so anyway,
00:31:48.87\00:31:50.21
it's really exciting
to be able to figure out
00:31:50.24\00:31:54.64
how to use these
things in a much...
00:31:54.68\00:31:57.31
To be able to move much faster
00:31:57.35\00:31:59.81
and at the same time to really
00:31:59.85\00:32:02.32
use the
technology that's available
00:32:02.35\00:32:04.29
and also to
improve the quality, right,
00:32:04.32\00:32:08.69
because suddenly
you get multiple people
00:32:08.72\00:32:11.83
looking over each paragraph
and approving each paragraph,
00:32:11.86\00:32:14.86
so it really gets up
into the, you know...
00:32:14.90\00:32:17.83
Okay, so you'll have
people that translate,
00:32:17.87\00:32:19.77
but then because the
whole crowd is involved,
00:32:19.80\00:32:22.37
then people can
review other's work
00:32:22.40\00:32:24.21
and it can improve the
quality of the translation.
00:32:24.24\00:32:26.88
Exactly.
00:32:26.91\00:32:28.24
In some languages,
00:32:28.28\00:32:29.61
we actually are using
some artificial intelligence
00:32:29.64\00:32:31.91
to do initial translations
or at least to make suggestions
00:32:31.95\00:32:36.85
or make auto suggestions.
00:32:36.89\00:32:38.45
And then
translators can use those
00:32:38.49\00:32:40.82
or not use those depending.
00:32:40.86\00:32:42.32
Some languages have really
good artificial intelligence,
00:32:42.36\00:32:45.09
machine translations,
00:32:45.13\00:32:46.76
others are really bad,
00:32:46.80\00:32:48.13
you know, like Google Translate
00:32:48.16\00:32:50.37
or something
like that, you know?
00:32:50.40\00:32:51.73
But we don't use that,
00:32:51.77\00:32:53.64
so it really helps also
to move the process forward.
00:32:53.67\00:32:57.41
But then we have,
00:32:57.44\00:32:58.77
you know, really,
professionals also
00:32:58.81\00:33:00.54
to review those things.
00:33:00.58\00:33:02.04
Most of the people
really that come are,
00:33:02.08\00:33:04.68
you know, really,
00:33:04.71\00:33:06.05
linguists and
they're into translation,
00:33:06.08\00:33:08.58
you know, not everybody does
translation in their free time.
00:33:08.62\00:33:10.22
And they have a
burden and a passion
00:33:10.25\00:33:11.89
to be able to get
these messages out
00:33:11.92\00:33:13.96
to their
language group for sure.
00:33:13.99\00:33:15.86
Yes. Wonderful.
00:33:15.89\00:33:17.23
Can you tell us some stories
00:33:17.26\00:33:18.59
of how this project
has impacted people?
00:33:18.63\00:33:21.76
Yeah, we have a
number of people.
00:33:21.80\00:33:23.30
Actually, in a few months,
00:33:23.33\00:33:25.17
suddenly we got a
few hundred people
00:33:25.20\00:33:27.54
translating on a weekly basis,
translating stuff into German.
00:33:27.57\00:33:31.54
We were just doing
German and Swahili.
00:33:31.57\00:33:34.71
And so they
were getting in there
00:33:34.74\00:33:36.31
and starting to translate.
00:33:36.34\00:33:37.68
They started
translating a few books.
00:33:37.71\00:33:41.22
They're still in
the review process.
00:33:41.25\00:33:42.78
So it's some work.
00:33:42.82\00:33:45.95
We have young people,
00:33:45.99\00:33:47.32
but then we also
have a lot of pastors,
00:33:47.36\00:33:49.72
retired pastors.
00:33:49.76\00:33:51.09
One pastor, he
actually sent us a video,
00:33:51.13\00:33:56.00
you know, sharing his testimony.
00:33:56.03\00:33:57.37
He was just like,
00:33:57.40\00:33:58.73
"I am just so
amazed about this thing.
00:33:58.77\00:34:01.80
I thought I was
gonna do them a favor
00:34:01.84\00:34:03.74
and start translating."
00:34:03.77\00:34:05.11
And he started translating
his stuff and he's just like...
00:34:05.14\00:34:07.34
He just opened his mind.
00:34:07.38\00:34:09.14
And so now he's actually
translating all of these things
00:34:09.18\00:34:12.71
in his morning devotions.
00:34:12.75\00:34:14.92
And he's doing it like
for half an hour every day,
00:34:14.95\00:34:17.79
you know, translating
and then writing sermons
00:34:17.82\00:34:20.12
based on the text
that he is translating
00:34:20.16\00:34:23.19
for the platform
so that it can be,
00:34:23.22\00:34:26.63
you know, put on the public.
00:34:26.66\00:34:28.56
So it was just powerful to
see how this really transforms
00:34:28.60\00:34:32.63
even young people's lives
and also older people's lives
00:34:32.67\00:34:36.17
and retired pastors
00:34:36.20\00:34:38.17
and so forth that
want to contribute,
00:34:38.21\00:34:40.38
lot of them are
really excited that
00:34:40.41\00:34:42.34
they can really
contribute now to the work.
00:34:42.38\00:34:44.71
Well, thank you so
much for sharing, Jesse.
00:34:44.75\00:34:47.02
And I want to thank each of you
00:34:47.05\00:34:48.65
because we're
gonna watch a video
00:34:48.68\00:34:50.32
that you prepared for us, Jesse.
00:34:50.35\00:34:52.09
But I want to thank each of you
00:34:52.12\00:34:53.59
for participating this
evening and for being here.
00:34:53.62\00:34:56.66
May God bless each of you
00:34:56.69\00:34:58.03
in your
ministry as you continue.
00:34:58.06\00:34:59.63
I just want to say,
00:34:59.66\00:35:01.03
please come on Ellen4All.
00:35:01.06\00:35:03.43
This is the last
slide there, Ellen4All.org.
00:35:03.47\00:35:06.74
And you can sign up
and start translating.
00:35:06.77\00:35:09.64
And we're just making
available the possibility
00:35:09.67\00:35:12.74
for even some of the people
that don't speak two languages
00:35:12.77\00:35:17.31
to go in and actually
work on just the English text
00:35:17.35\00:35:20.92
to look at what are...
00:35:20.95\00:35:23.32
You know, to make comments on
00:35:23.35\00:35:24.69
Okay, this Ellen White
here actually was saying,
00:35:24.72\00:35:27.99
you know, in that culture,
00:35:28.02\00:35:29.36
in that time it
meant this and so forth,
00:35:29.39\00:35:31.56
so to really improve the
quality of the translation.
00:35:31.59\00:35:34.43
And obviously pray for us and,
00:35:34.46\00:35:38.70
you know, support, sponsor,
00:35:38.73\00:35:40.94
you know, so we can really
move the translations forward
00:35:40.97\00:35:44.01
quickly into all
of these 55 languages.
00:35:44.04\00:35:47.38
Thank you so
much to each of you.
00:35:47.41\00:35:49.14
Tonight, we have with
us some exciting people,
00:37:08.79\00:37:11.59
some exciting stories.
00:37:11.63\00:37:13.43
We'll start with you.
00:37:13.46\00:37:14.80
We have Mike Wells with
us from Print Bibles 4 Cuba.
00:37:14.83\00:37:19.37
And, Mike, tell us
what is Print Bibles 4 Cuba?
00:37:19.40\00:37:23.41
Print Bibles 4
Cuba is a project.
00:37:23.44\00:37:25.47
It's not a ministry
and it's not a business,
00:37:25.51\00:37:27.41
but it's a project that started,
00:37:27.44\00:37:30.65
May, the beginning
of May, last year or so,
00:37:30.68\00:37:33.01
what's that, 18
months or whatever?
00:37:33.05\00:37:34.78
That's right.
00:37:34.82\00:37:36.15
So the purpose of
Print Bibles 4 Cuba
00:37:36.18\00:37:38.99
is to upgrade the
existing publishing house,
00:37:39.02\00:37:42.69
increase their productivity
so that they can produce Bibles
00:37:42.72\00:37:46.73
and books and tracts,
like leaves of autumn.
00:37:46.76\00:37:50.40
Wow, that's awesome.
00:37:50.43\00:37:51.77
And who's involved
00:37:51.80\00:37:53.13
and how did you
get involved, Mike?
00:37:53.17\00:37:55.54
There are two of us
that are co-founders.
00:37:55.57\00:37:58.04
You'll see Russell's
picture up here later.
00:37:58.07\00:38:00.51
But I got involved
00:38:00.54\00:38:03.85
or the back story for
me is that, years ago,
00:38:03.88\00:38:10.35
I saw four pieces of
junk printing equipment
00:38:10.39\00:38:12.99
at a government auction.
00:38:13.02\00:38:14.36
Wow.
00:38:14.39\00:38:15.72
And we were down
on our last dollar,
00:38:15.76\00:38:17.09
but being a printer,
00:38:17.13\00:38:19.09
I thought this had some hope.
00:38:19.13\00:38:21.23
So without telling my
wife, I went and bought
00:38:21.26\00:38:23.16
that equipment,
not a good thing.
00:38:23.20\00:38:24.53
Without telling your wife.
00:38:24.57\00:38:25.97
But I started
seeing how God was working
00:38:26.00\00:38:28.47
because out of
those four pieces of junk,
00:38:28.50\00:38:31.34
after repairing
them and selling them
00:38:31.37\00:38:32.71
and trading and repairing,
00:38:32.74\00:38:34.08
and after a while,
00:38:34.11\00:38:35.44
I had a print
shop with no money,
00:38:35.48\00:38:37.55
to speak of anyway,
invested into print shop.
00:38:37.58\00:38:40.72
Wow.
00:38:40.75\00:38:42.08
And this idea hit me that
00:38:42.12\00:38:45.15
if we can set up a
simple print shop that cheap,
00:38:45.19\00:38:48.06
why wouldn't it be
possible to have print shops
00:38:48.09\00:38:50.79
and publishing houses in many
of these small remote places
00:38:50.83\00:38:54.13
in the world?
00:38:54.16\00:38:55.50
Right.
00:38:55.53\00:38:56.87
Well, as time went on,
00:38:56.90\00:38:58.23
I was at an ASI
Convention in Dallas.
00:38:58.27\00:39:00.87
Don't even remember
how many years ago it was.
00:39:00.90\00:39:03.64
But Garwin McNeilus was telling
about the situation in Cuba
00:39:03.67\00:39:08.88
with their printing presses.
00:39:08.91\00:39:10.61
And you may have heard
they were using used motor oil
00:39:10.65\00:39:14.08
and letterpress.
00:39:14.12\00:39:15.45
And my heart just cried.
00:39:15.48\00:39:16.82
Being a press
mechanic, I couldn't stand it.
00:39:16.85\00:39:19.22
But I couldn't do
anything about it,
00:39:19.25\00:39:20.59
so it laid
dormant for many years.
00:39:20.62\00:39:23.86
So that was actually the back
story of how things got started
00:39:23.89\00:39:26.23
and then they just
continued from there.
00:39:26.26\00:39:28.16
But that was when I really felt
00:39:28.20\00:39:29.53
the Lord's call to do something.
00:39:29.56\00:39:31.63
Wow. That's incredible.
00:39:31.67\00:39:33.00
And I understand you
took a recent trip to Cuba
00:39:33.03\00:39:35.90
to investigate,
tell us about it.
00:39:35.94\00:39:37.74
Probably, I didn't
introduce Russ first.
00:39:37.77\00:39:40.44
Russ is the other
partner in this, co-founder.
00:39:40.48\00:39:44.25
And as a youth,
00:39:44.28\00:39:46.31
now this is before
I even got the call,
00:39:46.35\00:39:48.78
but as a youth,
00:39:48.82\00:39:50.15
he was growing up
in southern Korea.
00:39:50.19\00:39:56.56
There we go.
Thank you. All right.
00:39:56.59\00:39:58.16
Southern Korea
00:39:58.19\00:39:59.53
and observing the
effective communism
00:39:59.56\00:40:01.86
on the church both in
North Korea and in Cuba
00:40:01.90\00:40:06.03
and in China.
00:40:06.07\00:40:08.50
And he determined in
his heart at that time
00:40:08.54\00:40:10.51
that he needed to do something
to be a part of spreading
00:40:10.54\00:40:13.68
the gospel in
communist countries,
00:40:13.71\00:40:15.64
and that being publishing.
00:40:15.68\00:40:19.41
That's awesome.
00:40:19.45\00:40:20.78
So then you and Russ
collaborated together
00:40:20.82\00:40:23.75
and established...
00:40:23.79\00:40:25.12
Yes, Russ and I actually worked
together for several years
00:40:25.15\00:40:27.16
at Christian Record Services,
so we already knew each other.
00:40:27.19\00:40:30.06
About three years ago,
00:40:30.09\00:40:32.16
I started hearing
the word Cuba, Cuba,
00:40:32.19\00:40:34.93
Cuba ringing in my head
00:40:34.96\00:40:36.30
and I tried
everything I could to find out
00:40:36.33\00:40:38.93
who the contacts were.
00:40:38.97\00:40:40.30
I even emailed Jamie George,
00:40:40.34\00:40:42.10
and he sent me a
picture of an old letterpress.
00:40:42.14\00:40:44.84
It just...
00:40:44.87\00:40:46.21
So I decided we had to
go over and investigate,
00:40:46.24\00:40:48.28
so I asked Russ if
he could go over with me
00:40:48.31\00:40:50.11
and help size it up.
00:40:50.15\00:40:51.85
And what do you find out
00:40:51.88\00:40:53.21
when you went
over to investigate?
00:40:53.25\00:40:54.58
We found out that
their production department
00:40:54.62\00:40:56.12
was really in great need.
00:40:56.15\00:40:58.25
It wasn't because
the people were bad.
00:40:58.29\00:40:59.75
It was the equipment was
wrong for what they were doing.
00:40:59.79\00:41:01.92
They were printing
Sabbath School quarterlies
00:41:01.96\00:41:03.59
on an 8.5x11 sheet,
00:41:03.63\00:41:06.16
collating them all
together and then folding them
00:41:06.19\00:41:07.96
and then...
00:41:08.00\00:41:09.33
So we knew we
had to do something.
00:41:09.36\00:41:10.70
So we made a
two-part proposal to them.
00:41:10.73\00:41:13.34
Part one of the
proposal was that
00:41:13.37\00:41:14.70
we increase their productivity
00:41:14.74\00:41:16.24
so that they could
eventually print Bibles.
00:41:16.27\00:41:19.87
Stage two is
where we would help them
00:41:19.91\00:41:24.38
actually print the Bibles
00:41:24.41\00:41:25.75
and train them to that point.
00:41:25.78\00:41:28.88
So the progress report
right now is that phase one
00:41:28.92\00:41:32.85
actually is very
close to completion.
00:41:32.89\00:41:34.76
We have the
equipment in my print shop
00:41:34.79\00:41:37.23
in Auburn, Nebraska,
00:41:37.26\00:41:38.83
being cleaned up and repaired.
00:41:38.86\00:41:40.86
One piece is in
Florida, that's the bookbinder.
00:41:40.90\00:41:44.67
But otherwise we've
got everything for that.
00:41:44.70\00:41:47.27
Phase two is where
we're still asking the Lord
00:41:47.30\00:41:50.84
how He is going to lead us
00:41:50.87\00:41:52.94
'cause phase two requires
00:41:52.97\00:41:55.51
a press much bigger
than any of us have.
00:41:55.54\00:41:57.61
And by the way,
00:41:57.65\00:41:58.98
the Lord provided
that press 10 years ago.
00:41:59.01\00:42:01.42
Ten years ago, I had a
huge book printing press
00:42:01.45\00:42:05.35
dropped in my lap as it were.
00:42:05.39\00:42:07.59
And it's in storage now, it
has been for about 10 years.
00:42:07.62\00:42:09.72
Wow.
00:42:09.76\00:42:11.09
And I know the
Lord was encouraging me
00:42:11.13\00:42:13.29
to move on it,
but it's been sitting.
00:42:13.33\00:42:16.06
And I cried out to the Lord,
00:42:16.10\00:42:17.43
"Lord, what do you
want to do with this press?"
00:42:17.47\00:42:19.47
And I believe
that, here at this ASI,
00:42:19.50\00:42:21.34
we are going to find
the answer to that question.
00:42:21.37\00:42:23.74
Amen.
00:42:23.77\00:42:25.11
Well, you know, I believe
00:42:25.14\00:42:26.47
we're gonna find the answer too.
00:42:26.51\00:42:27.84
And that's what
I want to ask you,
00:42:27.88\00:42:29.58
as we kind of
close this time together,
00:42:29.61\00:42:31.91
is what can ASI do to help?
00:42:31.95\00:42:35.25
What I'm asking of ASI
00:42:35.28\00:42:37.89
is that anybody who
has a burden for publishing
00:42:37.92\00:42:43.09
and maybe hasn't
realized their dream yet
00:42:43.12\00:42:45.19
because you don't have equipment
00:42:45.23\00:42:46.56
or don't know how to start,
00:42:46.59\00:42:48.10
we are going to be
having a meeting tomorrow
00:42:48.13\00:42:49.90
between 2 o'clock and 3 o'clock,
00:42:49.93\00:42:51.87
where we just like to brainstorm
00:42:51.90\00:42:53.64
a multitude of
counselors as it is.
00:42:53.67\00:42:56.04
And see where we go from
here because I believe that
00:42:56.07\00:42:58.71
this might be how the
Lord answers that question.
00:42:58.74\00:43:01.04
By the way, I forgot to
tell you that web press,
00:43:01.08\00:43:03.61
that book press can print a
million Bible pages an hour.
00:43:03.65\00:43:06.45
A million?
00:43:06.48\00:43:07.82
A million Bible
pages an hour. Wow.
00:43:07.85\00:43:09.18
And that would equate to
about 1,000 Bibles an hour.
00:43:09.22\00:43:12.25
Now naturally, you
still have to do the collating
00:43:12.29\00:43:15.06
and everything,
00:43:15.09\00:43:16.42
but it's a very productive press
00:43:16.46\00:43:17.86
that was going to scrap iron.
00:43:17.89\00:43:19.83
And I salvaged it
basically from scrap iron.
00:43:19.86\00:43:22.70
So if you're out there
00:43:22.73\00:43:24.77
and you have an
interest in publishing
00:43:24.80\00:43:27.50
and you want to
see how this model
00:43:27.54\00:43:29.64
of publishing
works that I'm proposing,
00:43:29.67\00:43:32.71
we'd really like to
just brainstorm together.
00:43:32.74\00:43:35.28
Two ways to get a hold of us
00:43:35.31\00:43:36.64
is we're kind of hanging out
at the HeReturns booth that's...
00:43:36.68\00:43:42.92
I don't remember what
booth, but HeReturns...
00:43:42.95\00:43:45.85
It's on the screen.
00:43:45.89\00:43:47.22
Okay. World Youth Group.
00:43:47.26\00:43:48.59
There you go.
00:43:48.62\00:43:49.96
World Youth Group will be...
00:43:49.99\00:43:51.83
They will also be able
to give you information
00:43:51.86\00:43:53.56
or you could email or just call.
00:43:53.60\00:43:57.17
And we'd like to see...
00:43:57.20\00:43:59.73
We'd like to get your
input tomorrow on this.
00:43:59.77\00:44:02.00
Thank you so much, Mike.
00:44:02.04\00:44:03.37
May the Lord continue to
richly bless your ministry.
00:44:03.41\00:44:05.44
Thank you.
00:44:05.47\00:44:06.81
And it's been such an
honor to share this at ASI.
00:44:06.84\00:44:09.04
Amen. Amen.
00:44:09.08\00:44:10.71
And now we have Craig,
00:44:10.75\00:44:13.62
who is from Riverside Farms.
00:44:13.65\00:44:17.92
And, Craig, what's
new at Riverside Farms?
00:44:17.95\00:44:20.99
We're fans of
Riverside Farms here at ASI.
00:44:21.02\00:44:23.36
What's new? Tell us.
00:44:23.39\00:44:24.73
Okay.
00:44:24.76\00:44:26.09
So most of you
know we grow bananas,
00:44:26.13\00:44:27.46
have a school,
have a wellness center.
00:44:27.50\00:44:29.83
But today, I want to
share a little bit about
00:44:29.86\00:44:31.37
what it is that
drives us to be there.
00:44:31.40\00:44:34.70
An author recently said
none of us deserve to hear
00:44:34.74\00:44:37.44
the gospel for a second time,
00:44:37.47\00:44:39.27
while some of us have never
heard it for the first time.
00:44:39.31\00:44:41.21
And that's something that,
you know, resonates with me.
00:44:41.24\00:44:44.48
And serving in a
country with a million people,
00:44:44.51\00:44:47.15
the question is begged,
00:44:47.18\00:44:48.52
what are you doing for
the people who've never heard?
00:44:48.55\00:44:50.39
And so I began to
think what can we do.
00:44:50.42\00:44:52.95
And so we have an
evangelism school there
00:44:52.99\00:44:54.32
and I talked with
our evangelism teacher.
00:44:54.36\00:44:56.36
And I said about a
year and a half ago,
00:44:56.39\00:44:58.29
"Why don't we try
something different?
00:44:58.33\00:44:59.76
Why don't we take our students?
00:44:59.79\00:45:01.36
And instead of taking
them to the local church
00:45:01.40\00:45:03.00
where they can lean on a
pastor or an elder or a deacon,
00:45:03.03\00:45:06.03
let's take them to a
village that's unreached."
00:45:06.07\00:45:09.77
And there was some nervousness
among students and faculty,
00:45:09.80\00:45:13.48
but we went ahead and did it.
00:45:13.51\00:45:15.31
We went to a place
where there's never been
00:45:15.34\00:45:17.48
a Protestant effort,
00:45:17.51\00:45:18.85
let alone an
Adventist effort in 100 years.
00:45:18.88\00:45:20.78
And we saw the Lord bless,
00:45:20.82\00:45:23.08
more than 70
souls were baptized.
00:45:23.12\00:45:25.59
Wow. A one-day church was built.
00:45:25.62\00:45:27.86
Amen.
00:45:27.89\00:45:29.22
A student was brought
back and trained in evangelism
00:45:29.26\00:45:31.29
and is now
fostering that church there.
00:45:31.33\00:45:33.76
And so we continue to do that.
00:45:33.80\00:45:35.16
And so we've done
that now in five locations.
00:45:35.20\00:45:38.07
There's now five churches that
have been planted by students
00:45:38.10\00:45:41.50
around Zambia in villages
where there's been nothing.
00:45:41.54\00:45:45.47
And it's amazing because
students who go to that place,
00:45:45.51\00:45:50.35
they can't lean on anyone.
00:45:50.38\00:45:52.35
So when they come back,
they don't have a question,
00:45:52.38\00:45:55.95
"Can God use me to win
souls for the Lord Jesus?"
00:45:55.98\00:45:59.39
They know.
00:45:59.42\00:46:00.76
And for the rest of their life,
00:46:00.79\00:46:02.12
they don't have to
wonder the question,
00:46:02.16\00:46:04.69
"Can God do it for me,"
because they've seen it.
00:46:04.73\00:46:06.96
Wow.
00:46:07.00\00:46:08.33
How old are
these students, Craig?
00:46:08.36\00:46:09.70
Students from
anywhere from about 18...
00:46:09.73\00:46:11.70
Wow. And up.
00:46:11.73\00:46:13.07
Wow. Going out and doing that.
00:46:13.10\00:46:14.44
That's amazing.
00:46:14.47\00:46:15.80
You know, you
recently had an experience
00:46:15.84\00:46:17.41
kind of in the
jungle there in Zambia.
00:46:17.44\00:46:20.31
Tell us about it. Sure.
00:46:20.34\00:46:21.84
So the latest crusade we
did in southern part of Zambia.
00:46:21.88\00:46:26.01
Our students went
out, began to work.
00:46:26.05\00:46:27.68
And they noticed, when
they first got to this village,
00:46:27.72\00:46:30.22
that, you know,
they put up posters.
00:46:30.25\00:46:32.42
And usually in
the village, you know,
00:46:32.45\00:46:33.79
kids come along and
have all kinds of things
00:46:33.82\00:46:35.56
to do with posters,
00:46:35.59\00:46:36.93
but none of the
posters were gone.
00:46:36.96\00:46:38.36
And so in Zambia,
00:46:38.39\00:46:39.73
you have a couple of
different forms of leadership.
00:46:39.76\00:46:41.63
You have a chief,
00:46:41.66\00:46:43.20
who is a bit
like a king, you know,
00:46:43.23\00:46:44.57
it comes along a bloodline.
00:46:44.60\00:46:46.84
But you have village headman
00:46:46.87\00:46:48.20
and there they're in
leadership in a village
00:46:48.24\00:46:50.97
because they have
leadership skills.
00:46:51.01\00:46:52.57
Wow.
00:46:52.61\00:46:53.94
And so this man was a
leader in that village
00:46:53.98\00:46:55.98
and they began
to get to know him
00:46:56.01\00:46:58.35
and the thing
that was interesting
00:46:58.38\00:47:01.62
is they found out
that he had had 17 wives.
00:47:01.65\00:47:04.72
Wow.
00:47:04.75\00:47:06.09
Is that even possible?
00:47:06.12\00:47:07.69
Beyond that,
00:47:07.72\00:47:10.23
he was feared even
by chiefs in the region
00:47:10.26\00:47:12.39
because when he
worked in the villages
00:47:12.43\00:47:15.03
that he was the headman over,
00:47:15.06\00:47:16.67
if someone was
misbehaving and it was severe,
00:47:16.70\00:47:21.34
he would go home,
he would write a note,
00:47:21.37\00:47:23.94
he would hold it up,
00:47:23.97\00:47:25.31
and a bird would come down,
00:47:25.34\00:47:26.68
take the note out of his hand,
00:47:26.71\00:47:28.21
go and fly to
that person's house.
00:47:28.24\00:47:30.35
And when the bird
arrived, that person would die.
00:47:30.38\00:47:33.35
And... Wow!
00:47:33.38\00:47:35.02
Yeah, he was feared
'cause he not only had 17 wives,
00:47:35.05\00:47:38.65
he ran the villages
tightly, but he was dangerous.
00:47:38.69\00:47:41.62
Another time arguing with
the one of the local headman
00:47:41.66\00:47:44.99
who was disagreeing with
him where their boundaries fell,
00:47:45.03\00:47:47.76
and he says, looks,
00:47:47.80\00:47:49.13
"And we'll see about
where this boundary lies."
00:47:49.16\00:47:50.83
And that night
lightning cut right
00:47:50.87\00:47:53.23
through the place where he was.
00:47:53.27\00:47:55.04
He was there.
00:47:55.07\00:47:56.40
And we think, you
know, we're in the West,
00:47:56.44\00:47:57.77
we don't believe
in some of this stuff.
00:47:57.81\00:47:59.14
Let me tell you, in
Africa, these things are real.
00:47:59.17\00:48:01.64
Yes, these things are real.
00:48:01.68\00:48:03.24
And so it seemed
like a very unlikely place
00:48:03.28\00:48:05.71
for the gospel to
have an easy place to go.
00:48:05.75\00:48:07.95
Right.
00:48:07.98\00:48:09.32
But as time went on,
the man began to have dreams
00:48:09.35\00:48:12.62
that were a lot like
the stories in Daniel.
00:48:12.65\00:48:16.76
And when we arrived,
he had gotten himself
00:48:16.79\00:48:18.86
down to 1 wife from 17.
00:48:18.89\00:48:20.80
Amen.
00:48:20.83\00:48:22.16
And when he heard
this message, he responded.
00:48:22.20\00:48:26.47
And so today,
00:48:26.50\00:48:28.47
there's a
church in that village,
00:48:28.50\00:48:30.51
60 people were
baptized into the church.
00:48:30.54\00:48:32.97
And the headman
said, "I don't care
00:48:33.01\00:48:34.41
who is here in my
area, they're gonna come
00:48:34.44\00:48:37.38
and they're gonna
help put up the walls
00:48:37.41\00:48:38.75
and finish that
one-day church in the area."
00:48:38.78\00:48:41.32
And so we're looking forward
to training a Bible worker
00:48:41.35\00:48:43.55
and sending them back.
00:48:43.59\00:48:44.92
Amen. Amen.
00:48:44.95\00:48:47.06
What a wonderful testimony to
the transforming power of God.
00:48:47.09\00:48:50.33
So tell me how
can we get involved.
00:48:50.36\00:48:52.69
What can we do to help?
00:48:52.73\00:48:54.06
Sure. There's a couple ways.
00:48:54.10\00:48:55.43
You can go to OutpostCenters.org
00:48:55.46\00:48:56.80
and look for Riverside Farm
00:48:56.83\00:48:58.43
and you'll see a number
of ways you can get involved.
00:48:58.47\00:49:00.80
One of the things
that's very impactful
00:49:00.84\00:49:02.40
there in Zambia is the
one-day church project.
00:49:02.44\00:49:04.44
So if you're here
00:49:04.47\00:49:05.81
and you're supporting
the one-day church project,
00:49:05.84\00:49:07.88
it's a huge
benefit there in Zambia.
00:49:07.91\00:49:11.21
You can also go
to RiversideFarm.org
00:49:11.25\00:49:13.58
and learn more about what we do.
00:49:13.62\00:49:15.62
Thank you so
much, Craig. Thank you.
00:49:15.65\00:49:19.72
In Sub-Saharan Africa,
00:49:19.75\00:49:21.39
one in three children
is severely malnourished.
00:49:21.42\00:49:26.26
People are
suffering from diseases
00:49:26.29\00:49:28.50
that they can
prevent with simple habits
00:49:28.53\00:49:31.03
and healthy food.
00:49:31.07\00:49:33.84
They don't know
about sanitation.
00:49:33.87\00:49:38.31
Education is a necessity.
00:49:38.34\00:49:41.14
Kids have no hope
of a better future.
00:49:41.18\00:49:44.41
But Jesus came to this
world so we can have life
00:49:53.86\00:49:57.56
and have it more abundantly.
00:49:57.59\00:50:00.40
FARM STEW is a
recipe for abundant life
00:50:00.43\00:50:04.70
that includes
ingredients that prevent hunger,
00:50:04.73\00:50:07.47
disease, and poverty.
00:50:07.50\00:50:09.24
Our mission is to
improve the health
00:50:09.27\00:50:11.54
and wellbeing of poor families
00:50:11.57\00:50:13.54
and vulnerable
people throughout the world.
00:50:13.58\00:50:16.11
Drawing on biblical
wisdom and sound science,
00:50:16.14\00:50:19.15
our African Christian
trainers equipped families
00:50:19.18\00:50:22.08
by conducting hands-on classes,
00:50:22.12\00:50:24.32
freely sharing practical skills
so people can help themselves.
00:50:24.35\00:50:29.32
Thanks to the
FARM STEW training,
00:50:29.36\00:50:31.19
people learn to live abundantly
00:50:31.23\00:50:33.16
with fresh homegrown
food, clean water, tidy homes,
00:50:33.19\00:50:36.80
savings clubs, and
strong community ties.
00:50:36.83\00:50:40.07
FARM STEW also
supports girls to stay in school
00:50:40.10\00:50:43.57
by giving them
washable pads and confidence.
00:50:43.61\00:50:47.41
Your gifts equip
desperately poor families
00:50:47.44\00:50:50.15
and vulnerable people so
they can help themselves.
00:50:50.18\00:50:53.48
Will you give for
abundant life today?
00:51:01.36\00:51:03.93
FARM STEW, a
recipe for abundant life.
00:51:07.16\00:51:11.43
So I'm so excited to be able
to have FARM STEW with us today.
00:51:11.47\00:51:15.60
And I really
experienced FARM STEW
00:51:15.64\00:51:17.71
to when I was in Kenya.
00:51:17.74\00:51:19.51
My wife and I were
General Conference missionaries
00:51:19.54\00:51:22.01
in Kenya, and Joy Kauffman,
00:51:22.04\00:51:24.15
your fearless leader came
00:51:24.18\00:51:25.91
and she taught us how to
make soy milk from scratch.
00:51:25.95\00:51:29.75
And that was
really a fun experience.
00:51:29.78\00:51:31.35
And so I'm so
excited to have Susan
00:51:31.39\00:51:33.19
and Edwin with us tonight.
00:51:33.22\00:51:34.92
And, Susan, tell us
00:51:34.96\00:51:36.49
where is FARM STEW having
00:51:36.52\00:51:38.16
the most important
impact for success.
00:51:38.19\00:51:42.23
Thank you very much.
00:51:42.26\00:51:43.60
As you can see, from the video,
00:51:43.63\00:51:44.97
that FARM STEW is having
a big impact with the poor
00:51:45.00\00:51:46.94
and vulnerable people in Africa.
00:51:46.97\00:51:49.44
And we are
currently in three countries.
00:51:49.47\00:51:50.97
We're in South Sudan.
00:51:51.01\00:51:52.34
We're partnering in Zimbabwe,
00:51:52.37\00:51:53.78
and we're in Uganda.
00:51:53.81\00:51:55.14
And the reason that
we're in those areas
00:51:55.18\00:51:56.78
is because that is
where the hungry are.
00:51:56.81\00:51:58.91
One in three children
are severely malnourished.
00:51:58.95\00:52:02.08
And a shocking
statistic that five children
00:52:02.12\00:52:04.35
under the age of
five die every minute
00:52:04.39\00:52:08.06
if you just think
about that for a second.
00:52:08.09\00:52:09.79
That's amazing.
00:52:09.82\00:52:11.16
But the reason
FARM STEW is successful
00:52:11.19\00:52:12.83
is because we partner
00:52:12.86\00:52:14.20
with the local Seventh-day
Adventist churches there,
00:52:14.23\00:52:16.20
which is wonderful
because it helps to train
00:52:16.23\00:52:20.14
and help our own
brothers and sisters in Christ.
00:52:20.17\00:52:22.87
And then also it gives us a door
00:52:22.90\00:52:24.27
into the local community.
00:52:24.31\00:52:25.94
And so we train
skilled African trainers
00:52:25.97\00:52:29.41
and our FARM STEW ingredients,
which are biblically based,
00:52:29.44\00:52:32.51
and they go out into
churches, the local community,
00:52:32.55\00:52:36.89
they go to
mosques, we're in prisons,
00:52:36.92\00:52:38.72
we're in orphanages,
schools, universities.
00:52:38.75\00:52:41.96
And since we
began, 3.5 years ago,
00:52:41.99\00:52:43.86
we have conducted
approximately 3,000 hands-on
00:52:43.89\00:52:49.06
participatory classes
impacting 56,000 lives.
00:52:49.10\00:52:52.30
Three thousand? Wow.
00:52:52.33\00:52:53.67
Yes.
00:52:53.70\00:52:55.04
That is incredible. Yes.
00:52:55.07\00:52:56.40
Praise the Lord.
00:52:56.44\00:52:57.77
What does FARM
STEW stand for again?
00:52:57.81\00:52:59.14
FARM STEW and...
00:52:59.17\00:53:00.51
We'll see it on the board,
00:53:00.54\00:53:01.88
on the screen
here in just a minute.
00:53:01.91\00:53:03.24
But FARM STEW is an acronym
00:53:03.28\00:53:04.61
and you can see the
eight ingredients there.
00:53:04.65\00:53:06.31
Farming, attitude, rest, meal,
00:53:06.35\00:53:08.35
sanitation, temperance,
enterprise, and water.
00:53:08.38\00:53:10.85
Awesome. Awesome.
00:53:10.89\00:53:12.22
And we heard that FARM STEW
00:53:12.25\00:53:13.59
has something new
that you'd like to share.
00:53:13.62\00:53:15.66
Share with us. Yes.
00:53:15.69\00:53:17.03
Actually, we're
very, very excited.
00:53:17.06\00:53:18.39
We are rolling out here at ASI,
00:53:18.43\00:53:20.80
what's called
our FARM STEW Basic,
00:53:20.83\00:53:22.50
and it's an educational program.
00:53:22.53\00:53:24.60
You can find it on our
website at www.FarmStew.org.
00:53:24.63\00:53:29.07
And it's free,
00:53:29.10\00:53:30.44
and it's a course
that you can take.
00:53:30.47\00:53:32.44
That is
awesome. That is awesome.
00:53:32.47\00:53:34.18
And as you share
these FARM STEW principles,
00:53:34.21\00:53:37.65
how are you able to share Jesus?
00:53:37.68\00:53:40.35
Well, you know, it's
a real blessing to us
00:53:40.38\00:53:41.75
to be able to
share the love of God,
00:53:41.78\00:53:43.45
and that God wants each of
us to have an abundant life,
00:53:43.49\00:53:45.95
everyone to have
an abundant life.
00:53:45.99\00:53:48.02
And so our curriculum
team has worked really hard,
00:53:48.06\00:53:50.83
actually with ASI leadership,
00:53:50.86\00:53:52.59
to make sure that
our curriculum works
00:53:52.63\00:53:55.30
hand-in-hand with
the ASI Picture Rolls.
00:53:55.33\00:53:57.63
And so we're hoping to
use those in South Sudan.
00:53:57.67\00:53:59.93
We're very grateful to
ASI for all of their support.
00:53:59.97\00:54:03.00
You know, I've actually used
one of those ASI Picture Rolls
00:54:03.04\00:54:05.64
with the Maasai people in Kenya.
00:54:05.67\00:54:07.18
They're pretty awesome.
00:54:07.21\00:54:08.54
So I'm grateful for that.
00:54:08.58\00:54:10.18
And so, Edwin,
00:54:10.21\00:54:12.01
you have much
experience in Africa,
00:54:12.05\00:54:15.48
and what caused you to
get involved in FARM STEW?
00:54:15.52\00:54:19.15
You know, many of our
church members in Africa
00:54:19.19\00:54:23.26
are caught in poverty
00:54:23.29\00:54:25.03
and these are our
brothers and sisters.
00:54:25.06\00:54:27.10
That's right.
00:54:27.13\00:54:28.46
And, you know,
00:54:28.50\00:54:30.30
I've attended church with people
00:54:30.33\00:54:32.17
who were living in cardboard
00:54:32.20\00:54:34.17
and stick shacks because of war.
00:54:34.20\00:54:36.47
Wow.
00:54:36.50\00:54:37.84
And recently, I was
attending church with a lady,
00:54:37.87\00:54:41.41
a widow, who was trying
to support her two daughters,
00:54:41.44\00:54:46.51
working as an
agriculture day labor.
00:54:46.55\00:54:48.48
It's very tough.
00:54:48.52\00:54:49.85
Yeah.
00:54:49.88\00:54:51.69
And we have information skills,
00:54:51.72\00:54:54.92
low-cost technologies
00:54:54.96\00:54:56.66
that can make a tremendous
difference to these people.
00:54:56.69\00:54:59.86
And I've had a dream of being
able to share with our members
00:54:59.89\00:55:04.73
things like this and
FARM STEW is doing that.
00:55:04.77\00:55:07.20
And I'm just
really excited about it.
00:55:07.24\00:55:09.20
That is fantastic.
00:55:09.24\00:55:10.91
And what do you think
has been the greatest impact
00:55:10.94\00:55:13.17
of FARM STEW in
actually transforming
00:55:13.21\00:55:15.51
the lives of people?
00:55:15.54\00:55:17.21
You know, we're
giving people improved seeds.
00:55:17.25\00:55:21.35
We're introducing
nutrient-dense varieties.
00:55:21.38\00:55:25.12
We're
introducing simple techniques
00:55:25.15\00:55:29.12
that can help
to boost production
00:55:29.16\00:55:31.69
so that the whole communities
and villages benefit.
00:55:31.73\00:55:37.43
People who never
grew vegetables people
00:55:37.47\00:55:40.70
who had never grown soybeans
before are growing them,
00:55:40.74\00:55:44.77
and using them in their
home, making soy milk and tofu.
00:55:44.81\00:55:48.74
And, you know, they're
just doing really well.
00:55:48.78\00:55:54.62
And starving
children are thriving.
00:55:54.65\00:56:01.19
And that soy
milk is really good.
00:56:01.22\00:56:02.66
I have to say. It is.
00:56:02.69\00:56:04.89
Can you give an
example of how FARM STEW
00:56:04.93\00:56:06.73
has actually benefited
our brothers and sisters
00:56:06.76\00:56:10.17
and the churches over there?
00:56:10.20\00:56:11.53
Yes.
00:56:11.57\00:56:12.90
Just recently, one
of our teams was working
00:56:12.93\00:56:14.67
in the village
of Nambale, Uganda.
00:56:14.70\00:56:17.94
And they were working
with the local church,
00:56:17.97\00:56:22.51
and they were introduced
to one of our church members
00:56:22.54\00:56:26.15
and her daughter, little Sahuba.
00:56:26.18\00:56:31.39
Sahuba was a
year and a half old,
00:56:31.42\00:56:34.66
and she weighed
less than nine pounds.
00:56:34.69\00:56:37.69
Wow.
00:56:37.73\00:56:39.06
And the thing is that the mother
00:56:39.09\00:56:43.93
and the community
thought that this was because
00:56:43.97\00:56:48.27
she had eaten a lot of
lemons when she was pregnant.
00:56:48.30\00:56:51.07
Wow.
00:56:51.11\00:56:52.44
So you can see we're
dealing with a lot of ignorance
00:56:52.47\00:56:55.54
and misinformation.
00:56:55.58\00:56:56.91
And misinformation.
00:56:56.95\00:56:58.28
And simple things.
00:56:58.31\00:56:59.65
Yeah. Yeah.
00:56:59.68\00:57:01.15
And we have solutions for that.
00:57:01.18\00:57:03.35
And so the FARM
STEW team introduced,
00:57:03.39\00:57:05.95
you know, took her to
the local health center.
00:57:05.99\00:57:09.19
And then they helped
her to start breastfeeding
00:57:09.22\00:57:13.60
in a better way
that was more effective.
00:57:13.63\00:57:16.77
And they started giving her
a locally available porridge
00:57:16.80\00:57:22.17
made out of grains and legumes.
00:57:22.20\00:57:24.74
And in 1 week,
she gained 2.2 pounds.
00:57:24.77\00:57:28.68
Wow!
00:57:28.71\00:57:30.15
And the next
week, she got malaria,
00:57:30.18\00:57:33.11
which is not unusual,
00:57:33.15\00:57:34.85
but she did not lose any weight.
00:57:34.88\00:57:38.19
And that was amazing.
00:57:38.22\00:57:40.02
So the community
00:57:40.06\00:57:42.76
and our church members
there are seeing that children
00:57:42.79\00:57:49.03
can be saved
through the principles
00:57:49.06\00:57:51.17
that we're sharing with them.
00:57:51.20\00:57:52.77
Awesome.
00:57:52.80\00:57:54.14
Susan, in 10 seconds,
00:57:54.17\00:57:55.70
what parting words do
you want to leave with us?
00:57:55.74\00:57:58.07
Well, I, first of
all, would just like to say
00:57:58.11\00:57:59.44
thank you so much again
to ASI for their support.
00:57:59.47\00:58:01.84
We'd like to invite
everyone to come by our booth.
00:58:01.88\00:58:04.01
It's number 106.
00:58:04.05\00:58:05.51
And if you would like to
sign up for our newsletter,
00:58:05.55\00:58:07.78
we would love to be able
to share more information
00:58:07.82\00:58:09.98
with you about
this incredible program
00:58:10.02\00:58:11.85
that's changing lives every day.
00:58:11.89\00:58:14.46
And more
stories. And more stories.
00:58:14.49\00:58:16.93
Thank you. Thank you so much.
00:58:16.96\00:58:18.29
God bless you.
00:58:18.33\00:58:19.66
