00:00:01.50\00:00:07.54
Mending broken people
00:00:07.57\00:00:12.34
I want to spend my life
00:00:12.37\00:00:18.71
Removing pain
00:00:18.75\00:00:23.72
Lord, let my words
00:00:23.79\00:00:29.86
Heal a heart that hurts
00:00:29.89\00:00:34.56
I want to spend my life
00:00:34.60\00:00:40.27
Mending broken people
00:00:40.34\00:00:45.64
I want to spend my life

Mending broken people
00:00:51.28\00:00:55.95
Hello and welcome to
another 3ABN Today program.
00:01:12.37\00:01:15.04
Thank you for joining us
as you do each and every day.
00:01:15.07\00:01:17.64
And, Yvonne, we have some
special guests here today.
00:01:17.67\00:01:20.51
We do. You know
these folk, don't you?
00:01:20.58\00:01:22.54
I do. I'm
privileged to know them.
00:01:22.58\00:01:25.21
All right, we have
John and Rosemary Malkiewycz
00:01:25.25\00:01:28.45
all the way from Down Under,
00:01:28.48\00:01:30.59
Australia, or how
should you say it?
00:01:30.62\00:01:32.55
Australia. Oh,
she's done pretty good.
00:01:32.59\00:01:34.96
Is that pretty good, Australia?
00:01:34.99\00:01:36.96
Not bad, Yvonne. There you go.
00:01:37.03\00:01:38.56
I didn't know I
said it like that.
00:01:38.59\00:01:41.43
Yeah, and you said
"can't" a while ago, right?
00:01:41.46\00:01:43.87
Can't.
00:01:43.90\00:01:45.23
Yeah, I can't do
this or I can't do that.
00:01:45.27\00:01:47.44
And so we say can't
00:01:47.47\00:01:48.80
and sometimes
depending where you're from,
00:01:48.84\00:01:50.31
you say, can't,
00:01:50.34\00:01:51.67
"Can't do this
or can't do that."
00:01:51.71\00:01:53.04
Can't do that.
00:01:53.07\00:01:54.41
But, you know,
what's great about it,
00:01:54.44\00:01:55.78
we understand each other, right?
00:01:55.81\00:01:57.68
And very well,
and we understand...
00:01:57.71\00:02:00.12
More than the
outward appearance,
00:02:00.15\00:02:01.48
we understand the heart.
00:02:01.52\00:02:02.85
That's right. And so we met...
00:02:02.88\00:02:04.22
How many years ago
00:02:04.25\00:02:05.59
was probably the
first time that we...
00:02:05.62\00:02:06.96
2004. Okay.
00:02:06.99\00:02:08.82
So quite a while
ago, 14 years or so ago.
00:02:08.86\00:02:12.59
And we found these
folk love the Lord.
00:02:12.63\00:02:15.96
They were
traveling across Australia
00:02:16.00\00:02:17.93
putting in dishes so
people could receive 3ABN.
00:02:17.97\00:02:21.97
That was a real good job.
00:02:22.00\00:02:24.34
It was real as
you enjoyed the travel
00:02:24.37\00:02:26.34
and you got to
meet lots of people.
00:02:26.37\00:02:28.61
Didn't have a big
production center and crews...
00:02:28.64\00:02:31.05
No. No.
00:02:31.08\00:02:32.41
And satellite bills
to cover and minister.
00:02:32.45\00:02:36.55
Actually, 2004
00:02:36.58\00:02:37.92
was the first time we came here.
00:02:37.95\00:02:39.95
We'd been doing the
work down there before that.
00:02:39.99\00:02:42.12
Yeah, so I thought,
we probably knew of you,
00:02:42.16\00:02:45.26
but it's been 14 years
since you actually came here,
00:02:45.29\00:02:48.60
probably 15 or 16 years or so,
00:02:48.63\00:02:51.50
'cause I know
they were traveling...
00:02:51.53\00:02:52.87
They had this
little green vehicle,
00:02:52.90\00:02:54.77
they call it Kermit.
00:02:54.80\00:02:56.14
Okay, like a little frog.
00:02:56.17\00:02:57.51
It's not easy getting green.
00:02:57.54\00:02:58.87
It got known all
over the world as Kermit.
00:02:58.91\00:03:00.28
"What's happened to Kermit?"
00:03:00.31\00:03:01.64
Yeah, and, you know,
Yvonne sang original duet
00:03:01.68\00:03:04.28
with Kermit the Frog,
it's not easy being green,
00:03:04.31\00:03:07.02
so, on Sesame Street.
00:03:07.05\00:03:09.15
Actually, the first
time you talked to us
00:03:09.18\00:03:10.89
was through a telephone,
00:03:10.92\00:03:14.39
and we're out in the
outback of Australia.
00:03:14.42\00:03:16.76
And I can remember,
we were sitting there
00:03:16.83\00:03:18.16
and a big camel came up
00:03:18.19\00:03:20.10
and wanted to
take part in it too.
00:03:20.13\00:03:23.97
That was a New
Year's Eve special.
00:03:24.00\00:03:27.07
We had a
telephone linkup. All right.
00:03:27.14\00:03:28.90
Well, what an
amazing run you've had
00:03:28.94\00:03:32.41
and still have, we'll call it.
00:03:32.44\00:03:33.91
Because all of these years,
to think what you were doing
00:03:33.98\00:03:37.45
would turn into
what you're doing now,
00:03:37.48\00:03:39.11
to be able to
reach millions of people
00:03:39.15\00:03:41.72
in the Pacific Rim
area through the satellites
00:03:41.75\00:03:44.02
and through the down
links and through VAST or VAST,
00:03:44.09\00:03:49.02
depending on how you
want to say it, that system.
00:03:49.06\00:03:51.33
We'll talk a
little bit about that too.
00:03:51.36\00:03:52.83
But before we do,
and we go any further,
00:03:52.86\00:03:55.06
first of all, we're so
thankful that you're here.
00:03:55.10\00:03:57.70
They're brothers
and sisters in the Lord.
00:03:57.73\00:03:59.73
But we have some
special music today,
00:03:59.77\00:04:01.70
Brother Adrian Westney Jr.
00:04:01.74\00:04:04.21
And he's going to
be playing on the piano
00:04:04.24\00:04:06.41
"Redeemed".
00:04:06.44\00:04:07.78
Oh, great.
00:04:07.81\00:04:09.14
Amen. What a gift!
00:08:51.53\00:08:53.40
Yeah, absolutely.
What a wonderful gift...
00:08:53.43\00:08:54.76
And he sings too,
of course, you know.
00:08:54.80\00:08:58.00
Some people have all
the talent, you know.
00:08:58.03\00:08:59.37
I know.
00:08:59.40\00:09:00.74
They sing, they play,
00:09:00.77\00:09:02.10
no telling what else
they can do, you know, but...
00:09:02.14\00:09:03.54
Well, you sing and play.
You sing, and you play guitar.
00:09:03.61\00:09:05.67
Well, I do, but
it's different league.
00:09:05.71\00:09:07.48
I don't play any instrument.
00:09:07.51\00:09:09.38
It's a different league, I
just do my own little thing,
00:09:09.41\00:09:11.75
you know, but, no,
he does a great job.
00:09:11.78\00:09:13.11
Thank you so
much for what you do.
00:09:13.15\00:09:14.48
Thank you, Brother Adrian.
00:09:14.52\00:09:15.85
We're back here with
Brother John and Rosemary.
00:09:15.88\00:09:17.49
I was going to say,
my mum says she loves it
00:09:17.52\00:09:20.16
when a man plays a piano.
00:09:20.19\00:09:21.59
Yeah, okay.
00:09:21.62\00:09:22.96
She really enjoys that.
00:09:22.99\00:09:24.33
A lot of these guys
like, he and Tim Parton,
00:09:24.36\00:09:26.63
I call it they
dominate the piano
00:09:26.70\00:09:28.63
'cause they just hit
it so hard and strong.
00:09:28.66\00:09:30.00
That's a good
way to describe it.
00:09:30.07\00:09:31.40
And they just really,
you know, really dominate.
00:09:31.43\00:09:33.94
Maybe that's what she likes
00:09:33.97\00:09:35.30
how they play with
such confidence, you know.
00:09:35.34\00:09:37.64
But there are
some great women...
00:09:37.67\00:09:39.01
She just loves men doing it.
00:09:39.04\00:09:40.38
There are some great
women piano players as well.
00:09:40.41\00:09:42.31
And it's a gift, all
of it is a gift from God.
00:09:42.34\00:09:44.78
We each have gifts,
00:09:44.81\00:09:46.15
no matter if
you're sitting at home
00:09:46.18\00:09:47.52
and saying, "Well, I
can't do this or that."
00:09:47.55\00:09:49.45
I see guitar
players and I'm like,
00:09:49.48\00:09:51.39
"Boy, I wish I could play.
00:09:51.42\00:09:53.09
I really would love..."
00:09:53.12\00:09:54.46
In fact, when I was younger,
00:09:54.49\00:09:55.82
I was probably 16, 17 years old,
00:09:55.86\00:09:58.36
I remember, I told my dad once,
00:09:58.39\00:10:00.50
"Man, I wish I
could play like that."
00:10:00.53\00:10:02.03
He said, "No, you don't."
00:10:02.06\00:10:03.57
I said, "No, I do, Dad."
00:10:03.60\00:10:05.17
We had a guy over to
the house, Cliff Martin,
00:10:05.20\00:10:06.97
he was great
guitar player, and I said,
00:10:07.04\00:10:08.67
"Man, I'd like
to play like Cliff."
00:10:08.70\00:10:10.61
He said, "Well, I don't
see you practicing very much."
00:10:10.64\00:10:13.88
And if you want
to play like Cliff...
00:10:13.91\00:10:15.24
That's a good point.
00:10:15.28\00:10:16.61
You know, at that time,
Cliff was probably late 40s,
00:10:16.64\00:10:18.25
he said, "I've
known him all of his life,
00:10:18.28\00:10:19.78
he plays the guitar
every day, and he loves it,
00:10:19.81\00:10:23.62
and you want to
go play basketball.
00:10:23.69\00:10:25.12
You want to be outside playing,
00:10:25.15\00:10:26.96
you know, whatever
you can do outside.
00:10:26.99\00:10:28.49
You only play when
it's raining outside
00:10:28.52\00:10:30.53
and you can't do something else.
00:10:30.56\00:10:31.89
So you really don't
want to play like Cliff.
00:10:31.93\00:10:34.20
If you did, you'll
be playing every day."
00:10:34.23\00:10:37.17
Then he said, "Now
your brother, Tommy,
00:10:37.20\00:10:39.07
he really wants
to play the piano
00:10:39.10\00:10:40.84
'cause he played every day."
00:10:40.87\00:10:42.44
And so therefore, to this
day, Tommy is a great musician,
00:10:42.47\00:10:45.74
and I'm just kind
of stumbling along.
00:10:45.77\00:10:47.31
Anyway, that's not why
we're here today to talk about.
00:10:47.38\00:10:50.35
We're talking to
John and Rosemary.
00:10:50.38\00:10:51.71
We want to find out
about 3ABN Australia.
00:10:51.75\00:10:54.58
You've got some great reports.
00:10:54.62\00:10:56.42
I'm going to turn
you loose with it.
00:10:56.45\00:10:57.79
Okay. Do you want to start?
00:10:57.82\00:10:59.25
I want to start.
00:10:59.29\00:11:00.66
We've just enjoyed having
00:11:00.69\00:11:02.02
3ABN Spring Camp
Meeting here in America,
00:11:02.06\00:11:05.43
and we thought, you
know, people have being saying,
00:11:05.46\00:11:07.53
"Why don't you have one of these
00:11:07.60\00:11:08.93
in Australia, Danny?"
00:11:08.96\00:11:10.30
And so it's now
15 years this August
00:11:10.33\00:11:12.87
that we started
with 3ABN Australia.
00:11:12.90\00:11:15.90
And we thought we'll
take the step in faith
00:11:15.94\00:11:19.04
hoping that the viewers that
who'll see this program today
00:11:19.07\00:11:22.41
will be encouraged to come along
00:11:22.44\00:11:24.35
and be part of 3ABN
Homecoming in Australia.
00:11:24.38\00:11:27.32
Okay.
00:11:27.35\00:11:28.68
And we want to
share a little bit about
00:11:28.72\00:11:30.05
where it is and where you can go
00:11:30.09\00:11:32.02
and how you can be
involved because...
00:11:32.05\00:11:33.39
Absolutely.
00:11:33.46\00:11:34.79
This is not the
same as camp meetings
00:11:34.82\00:11:36.62
that we normally
see in our country.
00:11:36.66\00:11:39.33
This is more of
a spiritual feast
00:11:39.36\00:11:41.86
where you get to hear
the truth in a powerful way.
00:11:41.90\00:11:45.20
Similar to what we did here.
Similar to what you did here.
00:11:45.23\00:11:48.04
Now did I understand
right or I heard that
00:11:48.07\00:11:50.51
there were people
here that said they wanted
00:11:50.54\00:11:52.67
to go to Australia
for the Homecoming?
00:11:52.71\00:11:54.98
Yeah, we're
worried about that, Dan.
00:11:55.01\00:11:56.34
No, no, I'm not. I'm
not. I think it's big way.
00:11:56.38\00:11:57.71
People from our camp meeting,
when they heard about it said,
00:11:57.75\00:11:59.88
"Well, we want
to go to Australia.
00:11:59.91\00:12:01.25
We want to be there."
00:12:01.28\00:12:02.62
Wonderful.
00:12:02.65\00:12:03.99
And, you know what, I
have a feeling some folk will.
00:12:04.02\00:12:05.35
I hope so. Yeah.
00:12:05.39\00:12:06.76
It'll be great to get
people from outside of Australia
00:12:06.79\00:12:09.49
to come and join us.
00:12:09.52\00:12:11.13
If you are in
Asia, come, in Europe,
00:12:11.16\00:12:15.33
if you ever want
to come to Australia,
00:12:15.36\00:12:17.20
this is the time to come.
00:12:17.27\00:12:18.60
I hear from everyone that
we talked to while we're here,
00:12:18.63\00:12:21.60
they'd say, "I
dream to come to America."
00:12:21.64\00:12:23.44
Well, this is your
chance. To Australia.
00:12:23.51\00:12:24.84
To Australia,
sorry. This is your chance.
00:12:24.87\00:12:27.41
Now we're having the Homecoming,
00:12:27.48\00:12:28.81
and we've got a
venue for the Homecoming,
00:12:28.84\00:12:30.75
but we're having another
rally as well after that.
00:12:30.78\00:12:34.15
And the
Homecoming is going to be
00:12:34.22\00:12:36.18
at Avondale
Memorial Church in Cooranbong
00:12:36.22\00:12:38.85
in New South
Wales from the Thursday,
00:12:38.89\00:12:41.99
11th of October in the evening
to the afternoon of Sunday,
00:12:42.02\00:12:47.63
October 14.
00:12:47.66\00:12:49.30
So it's going to go
Thursday night, all Friday,
00:12:49.33\00:12:52.23
all Sabbath, and Sunday morning.
00:12:52.27\00:12:54.40
So that's why
it's a spiritual feast,
00:12:54.44\00:12:56.71
now that the church,
00:12:56.74\00:12:58.07
the Avondale Memorial Church,
just outside the college.
00:12:58.11\00:12:59.51
Yes. Oh, okay. All
right. That's wonderful.
00:12:59.54\00:13:01.61
The big church.
Yeah, the big church.
00:13:01.64\00:13:03.85
Wonderful. We've
been there before.
00:13:03.88\00:13:05.71
The people come out and support.
00:13:05.75\00:13:09.05
It's great, and we
love meeting the folk there
00:13:09.08\00:13:11.09
and getting this
make reacquainting
00:13:11.12\00:13:13.09
with some of the people.
00:13:13.12\00:13:14.46
It's neat.
00:13:14.49\00:13:15.82
And then we're going to
have the following weekend
00:13:15.86\00:13:17.23
from the Friday
night and the Sabbath,
00:13:17.26\00:13:20.60
19th and 20th of October,
00:13:20.63\00:13:22.66
we'll be in
Launceston in Tasmania,
00:13:22.70\00:13:26.23
just for the that
Friday night Sabbath.
00:13:26.27\00:13:29.54
And we're going to be
doing a rally down there
00:13:29.57\00:13:31.37
for the people in Tasmania
'cause it's harder for them
00:13:31.41\00:13:33.48
to get to the mainland,
00:13:33.51\00:13:35.14
to be able to
come up to Cooranbong.
00:13:35.18\00:13:36.88
The mainland is the big island.
00:13:36.95\00:13:38.51
Yeah, Tasmania is
a state of Australia.
00:13:38.55\00:13:40.12
It's a little
teardrop on the bottom,
00:13:40.15\00:13:42.48
right at the very
bottom on the East Coast.
00:13:42.52\00:13:45.05
So we've got a map
that we can show people
00:13:45.09\00:13:48.12
where it's going to be.
00:13:48.16\00:13:49.49
So we'll have a look at the map.
00:13:49.52\00:13:50.86
Absolutely, let's
do it. Let's do it.
00:13:50.93\00:13:52.99
Here we go.
00:13:53.03\00:13:54.43
There's Australia,
a beautiful country.
00:13:54.46\00:13:56.67
And that's
Cooranbong where that red dot is
00:13:56.70\00:14:00.07
where it will be
from the 11th to the 14th.
00:14:00.14\00:14:03.14
And then we go down to
Launceston down in Tasmania.
00:14:03.17\00:14:07.51
Oh, okay.
00:14:07.58\00:14:08.91
For the 19th and 20th.
00:14:08.94\00:14:10.28
What's that, a
couple hour flight maybe?
00:14:10.31\00:14:11.65
Couple of hours from Sydney.
00:14:11.68\00:14:13.18
It's interesting, Danny...
00:14:13.21\00:14:14.55
The venue is yet to be
announced for Launceston.
00:14:14.58\00:14:18.65
You know, Yvonne,
Australia is known
00:14:18.69\00:14:21.06
for its kangaroos, its koalas.
00:14:21.09\00:14:23.63
Tasmania is known for
the little Tasmanian devil.
00:14:23.66\00:14:25.83
So if you want to come,
00:14:25.86\00:14:27.20
you'll get a chance
to see these things.
00:14:27.23\00:14:31.50
That would be
interesting. That's true.
00:14:31.53\00:14:32.87
Absolutely, so
the camp meeting then,
00:14:32.90\00:14:34.84
we're going to have
quite a few folk from here.
00:14:34.87\00:14:36.54
Uh-huh.
00:14:36.57\00:14:37.91
I think Yvonne
and I will be there.
00:14:37.94\00:14:39.41
Pastor John and Angie
Lomacang will be there,
00:14:39.44\00:14:42.54
Greg and Jill
Morikone will be there,
00:14:42.58\00:14:44.75
and Ryan Day who just sang on...
00:14:44.78\00:14:47.62
Did an incredible job singing,
00:14:47.65\00:14:50.09
himself and with you
00:14:50.12\00:14:51.55
on more than
wonderful on this project,
00:14:51.59\00:14:53.59
I think Ryan will be there
00:14:53.66\00:14:55.89
and who else is
going to be there?
00:14:55.92\00:14:57.26
Tim Parton. Tim Parton.
00:14:57.33\00:14:58.66
Oh, Tim Parton,
great piano player,
00:14:58.69\00:15:00.23
great musician, and singer.
00:15:00.30\00:15:01.63
And singer.
00:15:01.66\00:15:03.00
He's one of those
that's got it all too.
00:15:03.03\00:15:04.37
And Ryan is also a preacher.
00:15:04.40\00:15:05.87
Ryan's a preacher,
Seventh-day Adventist preacher.
00:15:05.90\00:15:07.24
And he sings and preaches, so.
00:15:07.27\00:15:08.60
Absolutely, and so...
00:15:08.64\00:15:10.14
And John
preaches, John Lomacang.
00:15:10.21\00:15:11.54
Yeah, and who knows who
else, but we're going to do
00:15:11.57\00:15:14.08
a lot of the music
from this brand-new project,
00:15:14.11\00:15:16.68
Give Him Glory, that
literally was songs written
00:15:16.75\00:15:19.95
for the three angels'
messages for present truth.
00:15:20.02\00:15:23.59
And so if there's ever a time
that we needed to be giving it,
00:15:23.62\00:15:26.76
it's now.
00:15:26.79\00:15:28.12
And we look forward to taking
this same message to Australia
00:15:28.16\00:15:32.26
and get this, the
message and music,
00:15:32.29\00:15:34.80
where a lot of
people will listen to music,
00:15:34.83\00:15:36.46
but they won't
listen to preaching.
00:15:36.50\00:15:37.83
That's very true.
00:15:37.87\00:15:39.20
And they're afraid of
Daniel and Revelation,
00:15:39.23\00:15:40.57
they tell us, a
lot of the churches...
00:15:40.64\00:15:41.97
In fact, one of the
writers, Lanny Wolfe had said,
00:15:42.00\00:15:44.37
"I was always afraid
of Daniel and Revelation
00:15:44.41\00:15:46.27
because my
church never taught it."
00:15:46.31\00:15:48.14
But now, of course, he
supports it, believes it,
00:15:48.18\00:15:50.85
and I believe he's going
to continue to preach it,
00:15:50.88\00:15:53.82
but he's definitely preaching it
00:15:53.85\00:15:55.18
through his music.
00:15:55.22\00:15:56.55
Well, we're going to
have a couple of concerts,
00:15:56.58\00:15:58.35
including going
through Give Him Glory,
00:15:58.39\00:16:02.52
the pillars,
well, not the pillars
00:16:02.56\00:16:04.96
but the maiden project.
00:16:04.99\00:16:07.20
Yes, Give Him Glory.
00:16:07.23\00:16:08.70
And also we'll have other
music from some local people
00:16:08.73\00:16:11.97
as well as the 3ABN group.
00:16:12.00\00:16:13.34
Okay.
00:16:13.37\00:16:14.70
And we'll have
Pastor Jeff Lomacang,
00:16:14.74\00:16:17.41
sorry, Pastor Geoff Youlden,
00:16:17.44\00:16:19.54
who is a very well-known
Australian evangelist,
00:16:19.57\00:16:24.78
but he's been around the
world doing evangelism as well.
00:16:24.81\00:16:28.05
He said he'll speak
to Dr. Allan Lindsay
00:16:28.08\00:16:30.69
from Keepers of The Flame.
00:16:30.72\00:16:32.82
He said that he
will do something.
00:16:32.85\00:16:34.89
We have young Charissa Fong.
00:16:34.92\00:16:36.73
Oh, yeah. She
is very well-known.
00:16:36.76\00:16:38.09
We have her on 3ABN.
00:16:38.13\00:16:39.66
And also Gary Kent
from the Incredible Journey
00:16:39.69\00:16:42.46
has said what he will speak.
00:16:42.50\00:16:43.97
So they all appear on 3ABN,
00:16:44.00\00:16:47.34
and so we've got
them lined up as well.
00:16:47.37\00:16:49.70
All right, it's
going to be great.
00:16:49.74\00:16:51.74
You're inviting everybody
that's watching to come?
00:16:51.77\00:16:54.18
Yes, definitely.
00:16:54.21\00:16:56.85
But they just have
to pay for themselves.
00:16:56.88\00:17:00.32
You have to pay
for your own way there,
00:17:00.35\00:17:01.88
but I think they
know that by now.
00:17:01.92\00:17:03.49
So...
00:17:03.52\00:17:04.85
But we'll also have more
information on our website
00:17:04.89\00:17:07.92
as we organize more.
00:17:07.96\00:17:09.29
Okay, we'll put that
address up pretty soon.
00:17:09.32\00:17:10.66
Because we're
still getting it done.
00:17:10.73\00:17:12.06
Okay. Yes.
00:17:12.09\00:17:13.43
So then that information
will be available soon
00:17:13.46\00:17:15.16
so people can then
book some accommodation
00:17:15.20\00:17:18.30
and book their however
they're going to get there.
00:17:18.33\00:17:21.67
Sure. Okay. And come along.
00:17:21.70\00:17:23.91
Go ahead.
00:17:23.94\00:17:25.27
So this is a historic event
00:17:25.31\00:17:26.78
because it is the
very first Homecoming
00:17:26.81\00:17:29.54
after 15 years, right?
00:17:29.58\00:17:30.95
That's right. Yeah.
00:17:30.98\00:17:32.31
So what a beautiful...
00:17:32.35\00:17:33.68
Because 3ABN is a family,
so we're having Homecoming.
00:17:33.72\00:17:36.35
There you go,
okay. I like it, yeah.
00:17:36.38\00:17:38.49
People say that
3ABN is their family,
00:17:38.52\00:17:40.59
so let's get together.
00:17:40.66\00:17:42.36
Nice, nice.
00:17:42.39\00:17:43.73
And you never
really know, you know,
00:17:43.76\00:17:45.79
it's so great when we
have camp meeting here
00:17:45.83\00:17:47.83
because you don't
know who's watching
00:17:47.86\00:17:50.07
until they come and they say,
00:17:50.10\00:17:51.70
"Oh, we're so blessed by 3ABN
00:17:51.73\00:17:53.94
and, of course,
Dare to Dream" And so...
00:17:53.97\00:17:57.41
I had to put that
a shameless plug in.
00:17:57.44\00:18:00.28
And so, you know,
you just never know,
00:18:00.31\00:18:02.08
and it's so great for
you to connect with people
00:18:02.11\00:18:05.71
who are watching, and
they love to meet you,
00:18:05.75\00:18:08.68
and just kind of
get a personal glimpse
00:18:08.72\00:18:10.59
of who you are.
00:18:10.62\00:18:11.95
So it's a beautiful thing,
00:18:11.99\00:18:13.32
and it's so
spiritually rejuvenating.
00:18:13.36\00:18:15.46
Absolutely. I
think that's really...
00:18:15.49\00:18:17.96
It's really key.
00:18:17.99\00:18:19.43
You know, Danny, you
mentioned VAST, VAST,
00:18:19.46\00:18:22.90
and I know
there are some viewers
00:18:22.93\00:18:24.63
who may be watching this
00:18:24.67\00:18:26.00
that are watching on
VAST for the first time
00:18:26.03\00:18:28.00
or they've been watching
it for a period of time,
00:18:28.04\00:18:30.94
we want to invite especially you
00:18:30.97\00:18:33.24
because we know that
many remote areas in Australia
00:18:33.27\00:18:35.84
don't have an opportunity,
but this is an opportunity
00:18:35.88\00:18:38.18
you can take.
00:18:38.21\00:18:39.55
In Tasmania, for example,
00:18:39.58\00:18:40.92
there are quite
a few VAST viewers,
00:18:40.95\00:18:42.72
and we want to encourage
you to come to our program
00:18:42.75\00:18:45.55
to meet this family.
00:18:45.59\00:18:47.46
And I think you
will be richly blessed.
00:18:47.49\00:18:49.52
Yeah, absolutely.
00:18:49.56\00:18:50.93
You know, and our
family goes outside
00:18:50.96\00:18:52.59
to Seventh-day Adventist Church,
00:18:52.63\00:18:54.00
family of God is
all of us who love Jesus
00:18:54.03\00:18:57.37
and are willing
to publicly proclaim.
00:18:57.40\00:19:01.30
You don't have to be
00:19:01.34\00:19:02.67
a Seventh-day Adventist to come.
00:19:02.70\00:19:04.04
You know, this is for everybody.
00:19:04.11\00:19:05.87
If you're a Christian,
if you're not a Christian,
00:19:05.91\00:19:07.58
maybe you want to be,
we actually had someone
00:19:07.61\00:19:09.68
who came from Pakistan
00:19:09.71\00:19:11.51
who said he really
wanted to be a Christian,
00:19:11.55\00:19:13.42
watches 3ABN and, I'm told,
00:19:13.45\00:19:15.52
gave his heart to the
Lord here at the camp meeting
00:19:15.55\00:19:17.79
that really just finalized.
00:19:17.82\00:19:19.15
He'd been in the
process but came all the way.
00:19:19.19\00:19:21.72
So maybe you want to come
00:19:21.76\00:19:23.53
to the 3ABN Australia Homecoming
00:19:23.56\00:19:27.53
there at Avondale.
00:19:27.60\00:19:29.73
And so I think it's
going to be great time,
00:19:29.76\00:19:32.50
we're going to
look forward to it.
00:19:32.53\00:19:33.87
We're going to pray
God's richest blessings
00:19:33.94\00:19:36.07
for the anointing
of the Holy Spirit
00:19:36.10\00:19:37.97
that we'll see
things happen there
00:19:38.01\00:19:39.61
that maybe we haven't
seen in a long time if ever,
00:19:39.64\00:19:42.54
but what a way to get
the three angels' messages
00:19:42.58\00:19:44.75
to the world.
00:19:44.78\00:19:46.11
That's right.
00:19:46.15\00:19:47.52
And now another thing
we wanted to talk about,
00:19:47.55\00:19:48.95
the type of
programs we're making,
00:19:48.98\00:19:50.72
'cause some people even
here at 3ABN don't understand
00:19:50.79\00:19:53.86
what 3ABN Australia is doing.
00:19:53.89\00:19:55.96
We don't have our
own channel in Australia.
00:19:55.99\00:20:00.50
We actually make programs
in the studios down there
00:20:00.53\00:20:04.80
to supplement 3ABN's line up.
00:20:04.83\00:20:08.20
So we send our programs here
00:20:08.24\00:20:11.74
once we've made them,
00:20:11.77\00:20:13.11
they've been
edited and everything.
00:20:13.14\00:20:14.88
And they go up on
to 3ABN International
00:20:14.91\00:20:17.88
which is seen from
over Iceland, England
00:20:17.91\00:20:22.48
and through to New Zealand
00:20:22.52\00:20:23.89
and from Russia to South Africa.
00:20:23.92\00:20:25.99
So that huge part of the world
00:20:26.02\00:20:28.62
actually gets the
3ABN International
00:20:28.66\00:20:31.16
signal through satellite.
00:20:31.19\00:20:33.50
But, of course, the
whole world can watch now
00:20:33.53\00:20:35.03
through internet.
00:20:35.06\00:20:36.40
That's right. That's exciting.
00:20:36.43\00:20:37.77
So people in
other parts of the world
00:20:37.80\00:20:39.13
can watch and on our website.
00:20:39.17\00:20:40.67
You can actually
go and watch programs
00:20:40.74\00:20:42.97
on catch-up for three weeks.
00:20:43.00\00:20:45.41
Once it's aired, for
three weeks it's available
00:20:45.44\00:20:48.28
to watch and
then anytime you want.
00:20:48.31\00:20:50.75
That's pretty
good, called catch-up.
00:20:50.78\00:20:52.25
We call it
programming on demand,
00:20:52.28\00:20:54.02
and they call it catch-up.
00:20:54.05\00:20:55.38
I think I like catch-up better.
00:20:55.42\00:20:57.42
We can catch-up on the program.
00:20:57.49\00:20:58.82
That's right. I got
it. I got it. I like it.
00:20:58.85\00:21:00.66
And so all of our
programs are available that way
00:21:00.69\00:21:03.56
for three weeks
after they've aired.
00:21:03.63\00:21:04.96
And then they...
00:21:04.99\00:21:06.33
If they're in a cycle or
like a season or something,
00:21:06.36\00:21:08.43
then it can come back
around, you can watch it again
00:21:08.46\00:21:10.57
if missed it in
that three weeks.
00:21:10.60\00:21:11.93
Nice.
00:21:11.97\00:21:13.34
You know,
what's exciting, Danny,
00:21:13.37\00:21:14.70
we attended some
camp meetings recently
00:21:14.74\00:21:16.07
just in the last
couple of months,
00:21:16.10\00:21:17.61
and we're finding older folk
00:21:17.64\00:21:19.04
getting more and more
this new technology, you know.
00:21:19.07\00:21:21.81
Yeah, absolutely.
00:21:21.84\00:21:23.18
Smartphones, and
I was showing them
00:21:23.21\00:21:25.45
that you can
download a free app,
00:21:25.48\00:21:27.55
and you can do that, 3ABN,
00:21:27.62\00:21:29.98
and you can actually go on there
00:21:30.02\00:21:31.35
and look at all the programs.
00:21:31.39\00:21:32.99
And if you haven't
done that, I'd encourage you
00:21:33.02\00:21:34.92
because they were
absolutely fascinated by it
00:21:34.96\00:21:37.76
because they can
actually put on the music
00:21:37.79\00:21:39.46
24-hour music
channel, radio channel,
00:21:39.49\00:21:43.23
and they can blue...
00:21:43.26\00:21:44.97
What is it? Bluetooth.
00:21:45.00\00:21:46.84
Bluetooth to the
radio in the car,
00:21:46.87\00:21:49.14
they can listen to
3ABN wherever they go.
00:21:49.17\00:21:51.77
And they just
said, "That's fantastic."
00:21:51.81\00:21:53.14
We do that. Yeah.
00:21:53.17\00:21:54.81
And when we're
traveling, I put on my phone,
00:21:54.84\00:21:57.55
I put the 3ABN Radio on there,
00:21:57.58\00:21:59.41
and we listen as we drive along.
00:21:59.45\00:22:01.28
Yes.
00:22:01.32\00:22:02.65
And you can listen to 3ABN
Australia Radio on there also,
00:22:02.68\00:22:05.12
so there's a choice. Incredible.
00:22:05.15\00:22:07.06
God has made a
way through technology
00:22:07.09\00:22:09.29
for the gospel to get everywhere
00:22:09.32\00:22:11.83
really quickly.
00:22:11.86\00:22:13.19
I mean, we are,
as we say here in...
00:22:13.23\00:22:17.37
The toenails of
the image of that.
00:22:17.40\00:22:19.57
And so it's just...
00:22:19.60\00:22:21.57
God has made a
way through technology
00:22:21.60\00:22:23.34
for every human
being to hear the gospel.
00:22:23.41\00:22:27.21
They even get more
excited when they say,
00:22:27.28\00:22:29.71
"Can we watch it on there?"
00:22:29.74\00:22:31.11
And I say, "Yes, but
don't use it too much
00:22:31.15\00:22:33.25
because you'll
use up all your data."
00:22:33.28\00:22:34.75
Yeah.
00:22:34.78\00:22:36.79
Now the programs that we make,
we have an interview program
00:22:36.82\00:22:41.96
like this one...
00:22:41.99\00:22:43.32
Okay. That John and I host that.
00:22:43.36\00:22:44.76
What's it called? 3ABN Now.
00:22:44.79\00:22:47.03
Oh, nice.
00:22:47.10\00:22:48.43
And I want to just show
you a photo of some people
00:22:48.46\00:22:50.70
that we have interviewed.
00:22:50.77\00:22:52.10
This is just a few of
them that you would know.
00:22:52.13\00:22:55.20
Okay?
00:22:55.24\00:22:56.57
Now Clifford Goldstein,
now that was interesting,
00:22:56.60\00:22:58.84
Jaime Jorge. Uh-huh.
00:22:58.87\00:23:00.98
And the next one is...
He's an incredible violinist.
00:23:01.01\00:23:05.25
The next one after Jaime Jorge
00:23:05.28\00:23:07.22
will be Kay Kuzma.
00:23:07.25\00:23:08.85
You know Kay Kuzma really well.
00:23:08.88\00:23:10.22
Absolutely, for a long time.
00:23:10.29\00:23:11.82
And then we have Manuel Escorcio
00:23:11.85\00:23:13.36
from South Africa.
00:23:13.39\00:23:14.72
He's been here
at different times
00:23:14.76\00:23:16.09
doing music over the years.
00:23:16.12\00:23:17.79
And this one you
know, Nyse Collins.
00:23:17.83\00:23:19.49
Oh, yes.
00:23:19.53\00:23:20.90
He's on Dare to Dream
too. Yeah, that's right.
00:23:20.93\00:23:23.23
And the next one is Tom Evans.
00:23:23.26\00:23:25.00
Now Tom's from Texas,
00:23:25.03\00:23:26.37
and he's our New
Conference President.
00:23:26.40\00:23:28.27
Okay.
00:23:28.30\00:23:29.64
He knows Jim Gilley really well,
00:23:29.67\00:23:31.74
and so Tom came on.
00:23:31.77\00:23:33.11
Got a 3ABN panel
on too... They all do.
00:23:33.14\00:23:37.38
But the next one is
the one we did last year,
00:23:37.45\00:23:40.15
and it's all the staff
with Ted and Nancy Wilson.
00:23:40.22\00:23:42.38
Oh, great.
00:23:42.42\00:23:43.79
So they came on a Sunday,
00:23:43.82\00:23:45.95
it's the only
time they had available
00:23:45.99\00:23:48.12
and dropped in to do
an interview with us.
00:23:48.16\00:23:49.86
That's so great. It
was really, really lovely.
00:23:49.89\00:23:51.33
It was a pleasure
to meet them. Yes.
00:23:51.36\00:23:53.40
And we had a really good time
00:23:53.43\00:23:55.03
talking with
them on the program.
00:23:55.06\00:23:57.27
That's not all our
staff, that's some of them.
00:23:57.30\00:23:59.07
Now this is Let God Speak,
our Sabbath School Program.
00:23:59.10\00:24:01.97
And that's some of the
panel, we have two panel members
00:24:02.00\00:24:04.84
and a host.
00:24:04.87\00:24:06.21
And they talk about
the Sabbath School lesson
00:24:06.24\00:24:08.81
as they're going through.
00:24:08.84\00:24:10.18
Okay. Wonderful.
00:24:10.25\00:24:11.58
So there's one
another program we make.
00:24:11.61\00:24:13.15
Now this is
Eddie, Dr. Eddie Ramirez.
00:24:13.18\00:24:15.35
He has been in our
health and living programs,
00:24:15.38\00:24:18.75
and he's coming back to do more.
00:24:18.79\00:24:20.36
This will be the third
time he's been with us.
00:24:20.39\00:24:22.22
Very interesting
man, he works at Weimar,
00:24:22.26\00:24:24.83
and he's the Research Specialist
00:24:24.86\00:24:27.13
for Neil Nedley.
00:24:27.20\00:24:28.96
He's a doctor also. Yeah.
00:24:29.00\00:24:30.47
And this is Dr.
Andrew Pennington
00:24:30.50\00:24:33.23
from Sydney with our
hostess for the program,
00:24:33.27\00:24:36.74
Margot Marshall,
and this is on the set
00:24:36.81\00:24:39.64
for the last series that we did.
00:24:39.67\00:24:41.01
Great.
00:24:41.04\00:24:42.38
This is the Food Sense set.
00:24:42.41\00:24:43.75
That's our
video roll at the back
00:24:43.78\00:24:45.85
with all the
fruit and vegetable.
00:24:45.88\00:24:47.52
And we did a
pseudo shopping center.
00:24:47.55\00:24:50.52
Nice.
00:24:50.59\00:24:51.92
And I'm going
to the supermarket.
00:24:51.95\00:24:53.66
And it was really lots
of fun with the five people
00:24:53.69\00:24:59.03
who had products
because we couldn't go
00:24:59.06\00:25:00.70
into the supermarket so
we did it in the studio.
00:25:00.73\00:25:03.57
We brought the
supermarket to us.
00:25:03.60\00:25:06.17
That's the way to do it.
00:25:06.20\00:25:07.54
Yeah, and we've also
got some short B rolls
00:25:07.57\00:25:13.48
from that Food Sense program
that we'd like to show you.
00:25:13.51\00:25:16.78
Great. It was lots of fun.
00:25:16.85\00:25:18.98
There's a myth out there
that healthy food is expensive.
00:25:19.01\00:25:23.18
Today, I'm going
to explode that myth.
00:25:23.22\00:25:26.69
Because the fact is
00:25:30.26\00:25:32.03
healthy food is the
best value for money.
00:25:32.06\00:25:35.66
Now we've got
some fruit juice here.
00:25:35.70\00:25:38.63
Okay, and it's good fruit juice,
00:25:38.67\00:25:40.07
it's not cordial,
it's a fruit juice.
00:25:40.14\00:25:42.24
Where would you put fruit juice?
00:25:42.27\00:25:45.34
Green. You'd put it in green?
00:25:45.37\00:25:47.18
Why would you do that?
It's got to be healthy.
00:25:47.21\00:25:48.58
It's healthy?
00:25:48.61\00:25:49.94
No. No?
00:25:49.98\00:25:51.45
You're shaking
your head, Ross, but...
00:25:51.48\00:25:52.81
No, 'cause it's
not the whole fruit.
00:25:52.85\00:25:54.22
It's not the whole
fruit, where would you put it?
00:25:54.25\00:25:55.78
I'd put it in yellow. Okay.
00:25:55.82\00:25:59.65
Well, it does go up
the top in the eat list.
00:25:59.69\00:26:05.13
Why? Why?
00:26:05.16\00:26:07.76
That's exactly why
we're doing this, why.
00:26:07.80\00:26:10.47
Look, when you have fruit juice,
00:26:10.50\00:26:12.27
if you've ever
squeezed oranges or whatever...
00:26:12.30\00:26:14.07
Yeah.
00:26:14.14\00:26:15.47
It'll take two and a half
00:26:15.50\00:26:16.84
three oranges to make one glass,
00:26:16.87\00:26:18.31
and it's quite nice,
and it's easy to have
00:26:18.34\00:26:20.58
more than one glass,
00:26:20.61\00:26:21.94
and most of the
fiber has been removed.
00:26:21.98\00:26:24.68
So do we have enough
fiber in this country?
00:26:24.71\00:26:27.32
Nowhere near.
00:26:27.35\00:26:28.68
We're around about
half as much as we should.
00:26:28.72\00:26:30.09
So that's not a good way to go.
00:26:30.12\00:26:32.52
And the other thing that happens
00:26:32.55\00:26:33.89
is it concentrates
the sugars to do that,
00:26:33.96\00:26:36.49
the natural
sugars are concentrated.
00:26:36.52\00:26:39.39
Do we get that as calories?
00:26:39.43\00:26:40.90
Do we have a weight
problem in Australia?
00:26:40.93\00:26:43.00
No. Okay.
00:26:43.03\00:26:44.37
So for those reasons,
it's a sometimes food.
00:26:44.40\00:26:46.50
It doesn't mean to
say you never have it,
00:26:46.53\00:26:48.80
better to eat the whole fruit.
00:26:48.84\00:26:50.21
And I think you said that, Ross.
00:26:50.24\00:26:51.57
So go to the top of the
class and take your books.
00:26:51.61\00:26:53.88
And you've got a
little Kinder Surprise there.
00:26:53.91\00:26:55.64
A little Kinder Surprise. Okay.
00:26:55.68\00:26:57.35
Well, the kilogram of
those would cost you $100.
00:26:57.38\00:27:00.75
What? No kidding.
00:27:00.82\00:27:03.69
What? A hundred dollars a kilo.
00:27:03.72\00:27:06.59
So and I know
you don't buy kilos
00:27:06.62\00:27:08.66
but over time you do.
00:27:08.69\00:27:10.16
All right.
00:27:10.23\00:27:11.56
So there's a lot of interesting
little shopping ideas on there,
00:27:11.59\00:27:15.46
and the whole
idea of the program
00:27:15.50\00:27:17.00
is to help you save
$2,000 a year or more
00:27:17.07\00:27:20.97
on your grocery
shopping by buying healthy food
00:27:21.00\00:27:24.84
which is actually
cheaper than the junk food.
00:27:24.87\00:27:28.24
Okay. Nice.
00:27:28.28\00:27:29.61
So it's comparing kilo by kilo
00:27:29.64\00:27:31.81
or here you
would do it by pound.
00:27:31.85\00:27:33.45
Right.
00:27:33.52\00:27:34.85
The junk food compared to
fresh groceries and things.
00:27:34.88\00:27:38.95
And it was very, very
popular but it's airing,
00:27:38.99\00:27:41.76
and it's a good program,
lots of fun and lots of love.
00:27:41.79\00:27:44.56
Yeah, yeah.
00:27:44.59\00:27:45.93
And very enjoyable.
00:27:45.96\00:27:47.63
Now we also have a
children's series which is...
00:27:47.66\00:27:50.07
We've just filmed this
year the fifth season of this,
00:27:50.10\00:27:54.27
and we've gone from
Genesis to, basically, Malachi,
00:27:54.30\00:27:59.51
the story of Ezra and Nehemiah
through the Old Testament.
00:27:59.54\00:28:03.21
So we've got the Old Testament
covered for the children...
00:28:03.24\00:28:06.08
Wonderful. That's
great. Oh, that's great.
00:28:06.11\00:28:07.88
In five seasons, and
we've got two photos,
00:28:07.92\00:28:11.19
I'm just going to show
you two photos on that,
00:28:11.22\00:28:13.22
with one is of
00:28:13.25\00:28:14.72
one of our earlier
programs from season...
00:28:14.76\00:28:18.23
Oh, this is season five.
00:28:18.26\00:28:20.03
This is our latest season.
00:28:20.10\00:28:21.76
We did some
revamping of the set.
00:28:21.80\00:28:23.97
And that one's
season four. Okay.
00:28:24.00\00:28:26.00
And this is the
children all wear their purple
00:28:26.03\00:28:28.67
a Day with the King t-shirts.
00:28:28.70\00:28:32.31
The program is all
about opening Sabbath.
00:28:32.34\00:28:34.08
Oh, that's great.
00:28:34.11\00:28:35.44
So we have music,
00:28:35.48\00:28:36.85
we have story time
with Dr. John Hammond.
00:28:36.88\00:28:39.15
And we have a Bible
study for the children,
00:28:39.18\00:28:42.35
and we have these devotionals
00:28:42.38\00:28:44.09
which actually go
along with the Bible study.
00:28:44.12\00:28:45.69
Okay.
00:28:45.72\00:28:47.06
And in the devotionals,
there's different days.
00:28:47.09\00:28:49.22
We've got some pictures here
00:28:49.26\00:28:51.46
to show you some
of the devotionals
00:28:51.49\00:28:53.26
and going
through the devotionals.
00:28:53.29\00:28:55.50
There's something for the kids
to do every day of the week.
00:28:55.53\00:28:58.27
That's great.
00:28:58.30\00:28:59.63
And these can be downloaded
00:28:59.67\00:29:01.17
from the a Day
with the King website.
00:29:01.20\00:29:04.34
And there's three
different ways you can print it
00:29:04.37\00:29:07.38
depending on how you
want it for your children.
00:29:07.41\00:29:09.98
And there's one for every week,
and now we've got five seasons.
00:29:10.05\00:29:13.95
That's over...
00:29:14.02\00:29:15.35
Well, that's a year
and a quarter's worth
00:29:15.38\00:29:16.99
of these will be available.
00:29:17.02\00:29:18.69
Wow. Once season five is...
00:29:18.72\00:29:21.12
Season five will be up
there for people to download.
00:29:21.16\00:29:24.23
We find that a lot of
children who are home-schooled,
00:29:24.26\00:29:27.10
they like this
because then they can use it
00:29:27.13\00:29:29.26
part of their teaching program.
00:29:29.30\00:29:30.80
Sure. Yeah.
00:29:30.87\00:29:32.20
And A Day with the
King is now on Kids TV.
00:29:32.23\00:29:35.27
Okay.
00:29:35.30\00:29:36.64
So the website or
the number of people
00:29:36.71\00:29:41.34
who are downloading these...
00:29:41.38\00:29:43.38
Exploded.
00:29:43.45\00:29:44.78
These daily
devotionals has really
00:29:44.81\00:29:47.65
gone up exponentially
00:29:47.68\00:29:49.08
since it's been
available in the U.S.
00:29:49.12\00:29:50.69
That is so nice.
00:29:50.72\00:29:52.05
I was going to
ask, how can people
00:29:52.09\00:29:54.36
in the U.S. get
that, but just go to...
00:29:54.39\00:29:56.86
Just go to the website.
00:29:56.93\00:29:58.26
ADayWithTheKing.com
ADayWithTheKing.com
00:29:58.29\00:30:01.83
Yeah, I don't think it's dot au.
00:30:01.86\00:30:03.47
No. Yeah.
00:30:03.50\00:30:05.50
It might be on
the back of this even.
00:30:05.53\00:30:07.07
Okay.
00:30:07.14\00:30:08.87
ADayWithTheKing.com
00:30:08.90\00:30:10.24
That's okay. Wonderful.
00:30:10.31\00:30:11.64
And so it's for the children,
00:30:11.67\00:30:13.01
but anybody who wants
to learn the Old Testament
00:30:13.04\00:30:16.38
and the stories
that are in there,
00:30:16.41\00:30:17.75
including Daniel.
00:30:17.78\00:30:19.38
The season five
includes all the things
00:30:19.41\00:30:21.88
to do with Daniel
and the prophecies.
00:30:21.92\00:30:23.49
Okay.
00:30:23.52\00:30:24.85
When we talk to
people from Africa
00:30:24.89\00:30:26.42
and up at the
islands, they love this program
00:30:26.45\00:30:29.19
because the adults
find it easy to follow.
00:30:29.22\00:30:32.83
And so and they
love kids doing things.
00:30:32.86\00:30:34.93
Yeah, sure.
00:30:34.96\00:30:36.30
A lot of people
love kids programs.
00:30:36.33\00:30:37.67
Absolutely.
00:30:37.70\00:30:39.03
There was something
else I wanted to tell you too
00:30:39.07\00:30:40.54
in reference to
the interviews we do.
00:30:40.57\00:30:42.60
We've done nearly 200.
00:30:42.64\00:30:44.01
Wow.
00:30:44.04\00:30:45.37
I remember, Danny,
00:30:45.41\00:30:46.74
you said it's over
7,000, I think you said.
00:30:46.78\00:30:48.78
It was quite a while
ago, probably more than that.
00:30:48.81\00:30:51.35
I think we've done around
about 197, somewhere like that.
00:30:51.38\00:30:54.85
So we're almost
up to 200 interviews,
00:30:54.88\00:30:57.42
which is really exciting.
00:30:57.49\00:30:59.12
All of this is why they said
00:30:59.15\00:31:00.56
when they were
traveling around in Kermit,
00:31:00.59\00:31:02.42
just going from camp
meeting to camp meeting
00:31:02.46\00:31:04.63
and place was so easy.
00:31:04.66\00:31:07.93
Exactly, we didn't
have to find guest.
00:31:07.96\00:31:10.77
Yeah, but now,
look how busy they are
00:31:10.80\00:31:12.50
with all that they are doing
00:31:12.53\00:31:13.87
Yes. But we've also...
00:31:13.94\00:31:15.27
I wanted to tell you,
00:31:15.30\00:31:16.64
some of the places that people
00:31:16.67\00:31:18.51
that we've
interviewed have come from
00:31:18.54\00:31:20.68
either they're working there
or they are from that country,
00:31:20.71\00:31:23.18
and these are
some of the countries,
00:31:23.21\00:31:25.21
Solomon Islands in Pacific,
Papua New Guinea, France,
00:31:25.25\00:31:29.15
East Germany, Poland, Nepal,
Singapore, Thailand, Holland,
00:31:29.18\00:31:33.59
Hawaii, which
isn't the country, but...
00:31:33.66\00:31:35.32
Sure.
00:31:35.36\00:31:36.73
That was okay, Zambia,
Zimbabwe, Burundi, New Zealand,
00:31:36.76\00:31:40.43
South Africa, former Yugoslavia,
00:31:40.50\00:31:42.26
we've had a number of people,
00:31:42.30\00:31:43.87
Canada, Romania,
Peru, Brazil, and India.
00:31:43.90\00:31:47.24
As I was just going
through some of the people,
00:31:47.27\00:31:49.57
we had interviewed
before we came over,
00:31:49.60\00:31:51.61
and I found all...
00:31:51.64\00:31:53.01
Wow, look at
all these countries.
00:31:53.04\00:31:54.74
You know, Danny, I
remember you saying,
00:31:54.78\00:31:56.68
you know, we
need to have a studio
00:31:56.75\00:31:58.41
because you'll be able
to deal with interviews
00:31:58.45\00:32:01.35
down that part of the world,
but it hasn't worked like that,
00:32:01.38\00:32:03.69
we're getting from
all over the world.
00:32:03.72\00:32:06.96
Absolutely, but
that's wonderful.
00:32:06.99\00:32:08.69
I mean on the
international channel,
00:32:08.72\00:32:10.73
I mean, that says it all
00:32:10.76\00:32:12.43
but you guys are
doing an incredible job.
00:32:12.46\00:32:15.10
And you actually,
00:32:15.13\00:32:16.67
they're very
frugal with their money.
00:32:16.70\00:32:18.87
Yes, sir.
00:32:18.90\00:32:20.24
Have to be. Yeah.
00:32:20.27\00:32:21.60
Yeah, absolutely
but they do a great job
00:32:21.64\00:32:23.71
and the
programming is reaching people,
00:32:23.74\00:32:26.17
it's amazing.
00:32:26.21\00:32:27.58
Thank you so much.
00:32:27.61\00:32:28.94
We've got eight paid
staff, full-time paid staff,
00:32:28.98\00:32:33.18
we've got like Margot
00:32:33.21\00:32:34.68
who does the Healthy
Living is a full-time
00:32:34.72\00:32:36.99
or basically
full-time volunteer.
00:32:37.02\00:32:39.02
And she's precious.
00:32:39.05\00:32:41.12
Peter, who is in
charge of our audio
00:32:41.16\00:32:43.53
and send it all up
in the first place.
00:32:43.56\00:32:45.29
He's a volunteer.
00:32:45.33\00:32:47.50
Most of our camera
people are volunteers.
00:32:47.53\00:32:50.47
We have some
reception staff who volunteer.
00:32:50.50\00:32:53.20
They come in maybe once a week
00:32:53.23\00:32:54.67
or if we're in emergency
need someone to fill-in.
00:32:54.70\00:32:58.27
And we have other
staff who are paid,
00:32:58.31\00:33:01.78
our bookkeeper is on contract,
couple of times a week.
00:33:01.81\00:33:06.15
So we're working
with a skeleton staff.
00:33:06.18\00:33:10.39
And so it can be
really hard to do
00:33:10.42\00:33:12.15
some things we need to
do like new programming.
00:33:12.19\00:33:15.86
We haven't got
someone who's dedicated like
00:33:15.89\00:33:17.89
Dee or Cathy
00:33:17.93\00:33:19.29
in organizing
programs and Shelley...
00:33:19.33\00:33:22.20
That's us.
That's one of the hats.
00:33:22.23\00:33:24.07
But we do that,
John does floor managing,
00:33:24.10\00:33:26.94
he does camera building.
00:33:26.97\00:33:29.44
I don't do makeup, Danny.
00:33:29.47\00:33:31.61
I do makeup, I do teleprompter,
00:33:31.64\00:33:34.44
I do floor
managing, and whatever.
00:33:34.48\00:33:37.15
Sure. Reception.
00:33:37.18\00:33:38.71
And it's fun. Yeah.
00:33:38.75\00:33:40.92
Elizabeth does
reception, she does cleaning,
00:33:40.95\00:33:43.62
she produces or
burns off the DVDs,
00:33:43.69\00:33:46.52
does all the packaging
00:33:46.55\00:33:47.89
and mailing of
products and things.
00:33:47.92\00:33:50.33
They are all
doing multiple things,
00:33:50.36\00:33:52.36
even the production crew,
00:33:52.39\00:33:53.73
they all have
different hats that they wear.
00:33:53.80\00:33:55.33
We all have to be multi-skilled.
00:33:55.36\00:33:57.40
So who
conceptualizes the programming?
00:33:57.47\00:34:02.14
Well, it can be a
bit of a joint effort.
00:34:02.17\00:34:04.01
Someone comes up
with a program, idea,
00:34:04.04\00:34:06.54
and we can sit
down, and talk about it,
00:34:06.57\00:34:08.78
and try and work
out who we can get
00:34:08.81\00:34:10.35
to host something.
00:34:10.38\00:34:11.71
And so we do
have a production team
00:34:11.75\00:34:15.48
that we do have a
meeting once every now and then.
00:34:15.52\00:34:17.99
But generally,
sometimes a staff member
00:34:20.09\00:34:24.86
will come up with
an idea or John and I,
00:34:24.89\00:34:27.20
we pray very much
about what we can do.
00:34:27.23\00:34:31.27
And then we try to
implement something,
00:34:31.30\00:34:33.64
but it can take a while.
You have some great programs.
00:34:33.67\00:34:35.44
It can take a while
with the number of staff
00:34:35.47\00:34:37.41
that we have to do something,
00:34:37.44\00:34:38.87
but we've got
these different series
00:34:38.91\00:34:40.38
that we're doing all the
time, Healthy Living, 3ABN Now,
00:34:40.41\00:34:45.51
Let God Speak.
00:34:45.55\00:34:47.75
We have On The Road
which we've done with
00:34:47.78\00:34:51.22
people like Cheri
Peters, Brenda Walsh,
00:34:51.25\00:34:54.29
Jim Ayer as well as other people
00:34:54.32\00:34:56.09
and different
conferences and things.
00:34:56.12\00:34:58.73
We've done Recovery Road
00:34:58.76\00:35:00.90
which is on international
and faith versus finance,
00:35:00.93\00:35:06.07
which is on international.
00:35:06.10\00:35:07.84
We have done other ones
with the Witness Conference
00:35:07.87\00:35:11.64
which has its own series.
00:35:11.67\00:35:13.78
And there are all
sorts of different things
00:35:13.81\00:35:15.68
that we've done
00:35:15.71\00:35:17.05
that are once-off or
just a standalone series.
00:35:17.08\00:35:21.05
You know, Rose, you mentioned
that we really go to prayer
00:35:21.08\00:35:23.32
and ask God, and
it's the safest way.
00:35:23.39\00:35:25.42
Yes.
00:35:25.45\00:35:26.79
But, you know, with that,
00:35:26.86\00:35:28.19
we have a lot of
prayers answered.
00:35:28.22\00:35:30.03
And I remember, last year,
00:35:30.06\00:35:31.76
the same time
in the same studio,
00:35:31.79\00:35:33.50
we had Ettienne McClintock,
00:35:33.53\00:35:35.23
who is our host
and producer for radio,
00:35:35.26\00:35:38.00
and I remember him
saying that we make programs,
00:35:38.03\00:35:41.80
and we have
affiliates in Australia,
00:35:41.84\00:35:43.84
and at that time,
we just had over 30
00:35:43.91\00:35:46.01
I think it was,
and we decided that
00:35:46.04\00:35:49.54
we want to increase
our reach out there.
00:35:49.58\00:35:51.51
So we all got
together, and we prayed,
00:35:51.55\00:35:54.05
and Ettienne was
praying to get more affiliates.
00:35:54.12\00:35:56.99
Well, I want to
tell you today, Danny,
00:35:57.02\00:35:58.52
an answer to the prayer
00:35:58.55\00:35:59.89
that we have over
a hundred affiliates.
00:35:59.92\00:36:01.79
That's in 12
months. Praise the Lord.
00:36:01.82\00:36:03.36
Radio? Radio.
00:36:03.43\00:36:04.76
Stations that are rebroadcasting
00:36:04.79\00:36:06.43
for our folks
that take the signal
00:36:06.46\00:36:08.43
and rebroadcast
it to their area.
00:36:08.46\00:36:09.80
That's right.
00:36:09.83\00:36:11.17
That's the
Australian Radio, that's U.S.
00:36:11.20\00:36:12.53
plus Australian programs.
00:36:12.57\00:36:13.94
So that's just one
year to the day virtually.
00:36:13.97\00:36:15.80
And you started with?
00:36:15.84\00:36:18.11
When Etienne came
onboard, there was about 30,
00:36:18.14\00:36:22.51
and it might have been 40,
00:36:22.54\00:36:23.88
but it was
somewhere at that low figure,
00:36:23.95\00:36:25.28
but we are over hundred now.
00:36:25.31\00:36:27.22
In Australia and New Zealand.
00:36:27.25\00:36:28.58
That's amazing.
00:36:28.62\00:36:29.95
And it continues to grow
00:36:29.98\00:36:31.32
because I get a
little thing on there,
00:36:31.35\00:36:33.46
"Please, sign", you know,
00:36:33.49\00:36:35.12
when it comes
through the internet,
00:36:35.16\00:36:36.49
and I sign it.
00:36:36.52\00:36:37.86
You must get those
and listen too because...
00:36:37.89\00:36:39.23
I do, we do, we get
them, and praise the Lord.
00:36:39.26\00:36:41.73
It's a good
method. It's interesting.
00:36:41.76\00:36:43.10
Yes.
00:36:43.13\00:36:44.47
I sign a lot of
them from Australia.
00:36:44.50\00:36:46.43
Absolutely. I want to...
00:36:46.47\00:36:47.84
I want to tell you an
answer to prayer, a miracle...
00:36:47.87\00:36:51.31
Good.
00:36:51.34\00:36:52.67
That why we are
actually here this year.
00:36:52.71\00:36:54.28
Okay.
00:36:54.31\00:36:55.64
Every year we come, John
says, "I'm so glad we came,
00:36:55.68\00:36:58.41
I just really enjoy being here."
00:36:58.45\00:37:00.25
Watch it.
00:37:00.32\00:37:01.65
But every year, when it
comes to coming over here,
00:37:01.68\00:37:04.49
he says, "I'm not going.
00:37:04.52\00:37:06.22
I am not going,
we're not going this year.
00:37:06.25\00:37:09.39
We're too busy."
00:37:09.42\00:37:10.76
But really it's 'cause
he hates the long flight.
00:37:10.83\00:37:12.93
Oh, I don't blame him.
00:37:12.96\00:37:14.30
He just can't stand sitting in,
well, can't stand sitting in.
00:37:14.33\00:37:17.97
We don't have to fly,
we can just get together
00:37:18.00\00:37:19.90
on Skype and talk about things.
00:37:19.93\00:37:21.34
No, Rose, we said,
no, no, it's not the same.
00:37:21.37\00:37:24.31
So you're talking
about like Sydney to LA
00:37:24.34\00:37:26.34
is like 15 hours or
something, then you got to get
00:37:26.37\00:37:28.91
from LA to St.
Louis, go through that...
00:37:28.94\00:37:30.55
Or we go through Dallas,
00:37:30.58\00:37:31.91
so Huston, that's a long flight,
00:37:31.95\00:37:34.32
the flight going home
is scheduled to be 17 hours
00:37:34.35\00:37:37.59
from Houston.
00:37:37.62\00:37:38.95
To Sydney.
00:37:38.99\00:37:40.32
To Sydney, so it's a
long time. And John...
00:37:40.36\00:37:43.76
I can't stand
those long flights.
00:37:43.83\00:37:45.16
I know.
00:37:45.19\00:37:46.53
Anyway, I went
into his office one day,
00:37:46.56\00:37:48.13
and I said, "John, I'm
really feeling convicted
00:37:48.16\00:37:50.40
that we need to go
to 3ABN this time."
00:37:50.47\00:37:55.37
And he says,
"No, we're not going."
00:37:55.40\00:37:57.11
I said, "Well, I really
think you should consider it
00:37:57.14\00:37:59.57
because I feel
that we should be going,
00:37:59.61\00:38:01.28
we've got things to
do, things to discuss."
00:38:01.31\00:38:04.48
They chip away at you, Dan.
00:38:04.51\00:38:07.12
I only went in
once. I only went in once.
00:38:07.15\00:38:09.85
And I said to him
that I think we should.
00:38:09.88\00:38:11.72
So anyway, I left him with it,
and I went back to my office.
00:38:11.75\00:38:15.39
He came in after a
while, and he said, "Well,
00:38:15.42\00:38:16.83
how much are the airfares?"
00:38:16.86\00:38:18.19
Well, this isn't
very far away from coming,
00:38:18.23\00:38:21.30
and I looked up on the computer,
00:38:21.33\00:38:23.77
and they were about $1400,
you know, around about that.
00:38:23.80\00:38:27.97
We go for the cheapest
one, yeah, for the cheapest.
00:38:28.00\00:38:31.71
And he said, "Oh,
that's not too bad,
00:38:31.74\00:38:33.48
especially for
this so close to going."
00:38:33.51\00:38:36.44
And he said,
00:38:36.48\00:38:37.81
"We'll look at
it tonight at home."
00:38:37.85\00:38:39.18
So we started looking
at it that night at home.
00:38:39.21\00:38:41.15
My mum was visiting
from Western Australia.
00:38:41.18\00:38:43.99
And John looked at the
hours on the plane and said,
00:38:44.02\00:38:47.56
"We're not going.
00:38:47.59\00:38:48.92
We're just not going.
00:38:48.96\00:38:50.33
I'm not doing it.
00:38:50.36\00:38:51.69
I don't feel
convicted that we need to go."
00:38:51.73\00:38:54.43
Anyway, so I just
prayed saying, "Lord, I know,
00:38:54.46\00:38:57.17
I really believe
You're convicting me."
00:38:57.20\00:38:59.23
Anyway, the next
morning, he said,
00:38:59.27\00:39:02.97
"Okay, we'll look up tonight
and book something tonight."
00:39:03.00\00:39:06.78
I said, "Okay."
00:39:06.81\00:39:08.14
So we went through,
00:39:08.18\00:39:09.51
we had some
filming to do that day.
00:39:09.54\00:39:11.58
That night, we looked again,
00:39:11.61\00:39:13.62
and the airfares had
gone up to over $1,800.
00:39:13.65\00:39:17.39
Oh, okay.
00:39:17.42\00:39:18.82
Just in that small time.
00:39:18.85\00:39:20.19
It seems like they have
a cookie on the internet,
00:39:20.26\00:39:22.62
they know you're looking,
00:39:22.66\00:39:24.23
and so the next
time, it goes up.
00:39:24.26\00:39:25.59
That's true.
00:39:25.63\00:39:26.96
And John said, "We're not going,
00:39:27.00\00:39:28.70
God's telling us not to go
00:39:28.73\00:39:30.37
by having the
fares go up there."
00:39:30.40\00:39:31.73
I said, "Well, maybe Satan's
trying to stop us from going."
00:39:31.77\00:39:34.14
Thank you.
00:39:34.17\00:39:36.07
Anyway, I did find,
after a lot of looking,
00:39:36.10\00:39:38.87
I found an agent
that was having fares,
00:39:38.91\00:39:42.31
you know, for
$1,477 or something.
00:39:42.34\00:39:47.52
And I said, "Well,
it's down to this."
00:39:47.55\00:39:49.42
And this time, he said...
00:39:49.45\00:39:51.05
"Get it now, get it
now before it goes up."
00:39:51.09\00:39:52.82
"No, we're booking
it, we're not going."
00:39:52.85\00:39:56.02
And so he went
off and had a shower,
00:39:56.06\00:39:57.63
and I went off to
the bedroom later,
00:39:57.66\00:39:58.99
and he said, "I'm
going to pray about it,
00:39:59.03\00:40:01.13
and I'm going to put
something before the Lord
00:40:01.16\00:40:04.17
because I have to know
00:40:04.20\00:40:06.23
that we
definitely should be going."
00:40:06.27\00:40:08.50
So he did that, and I
went to have a shower,
00:40:08.54\00:40:10.71
and I just
prayed, "Lord, you know,
00:40:10.74\00:40:12.07
what he's praying,
I have not got a clue
00:40:12.11\00:40:13.78
what he's saying to You,
00:40:13.81\00:40:15.98
but I believe that
we're supposed to go.
00:40:16.01\00:40:18.11
If I'm wrong, I'm
happy to accept that.
00:40:18.15\00:40:21.62
But if You want us to go,
00:40:21.65\00:40:23.02
You're going to have
to answer his prayer.
00:40:23.05\00:40:25.39
You're going to have to
do something to prove it."
00:40:25.42\00:40:26.96
All right.
00:40:26.99\00:40:28.32
So I went to bed,
the next day we got up,
00:40:28.36\00:40:29.76
we had filming in the morning,
filming in the afternoon.
00:40:29.79\00:40:32.46
And after the
morning filming was over,
00:40:32.49\00:40:35.26
I went home, picked up my mum,
00:40:35.30\00:40:36.77
brought her back
to work for lunch,
00:40:36.80\00:40:38.93
John said, "Come with me."
00:40:38.97\00:40:41.00
And he took me up to his office,
00:40:41.04\00:40:43.04
and on the way, he told me
that he'd gone to the website
00:40:43.07\00:40:46.04
where it had said
1,477 the night before,
00:40:46.07\00:40:48.74
and he had looked on there,
00:40:48.78\00:40:50.75
and he had prayed to
God, "If You want us to go,
00:40:50.78\00:40:54.02
we have to get
something under $1,300."
00:40:54.05\00:40:56.12
I said... I made
a mistake, Danny.
00:40:56.15\00:40:59.29
I said, "That's impossible.
00:40:59.32\00:41:01.62
Last night, they
were up at 1,800,
00:41:01.66\00:41:03.53
the lowest was 1,477.
00:41:03.56\00:41:06.16
That's impossible to
get something under 1,300."
00:41:06.19\00:41:08.93
He said, "Well,
that's what I prayed,
00:41:08.96\00:41:10.97
I went and I
looked on the websites
00:41:11.00\00:41:12.87
on the internet, and I
found some at that place
00:41:12.90\00:41:15.44
that you've had
the cheaper airfare,
00:41:15.47\00:41:17.24
and it was $1,303.66."
00:41:17.31\00:41:21.44
Thirteen hundred.
00:41:21.48\00:41:22.81
I was home free,
00:41:22.84\00:41:24.18
and he showed
me on his computer,
00:41:24.25\00:41:25.88
and he said, but
then I looked up the top
00:41:25.91\00:41:27.62
and it said 50%...
00:41:27.65\00:41:30.19
Fifty dollar.
00:41:30.22\00:41:31.55
Fifty dollar bonus or something.
00:41:31.59\00:41:33.15
So I clicked on it,
00:41:33.19\00:41:34.52
I shouldn't have clicked on it.
00:41:34.56\00:41:36.83
And it said you
have to ring the agent,
00:41:36.86\00:41:38.69
well, there was an agent
20 minutes away in a store.
00:41:38.73\00:41:42.53
Very unusual, that was.
00:41:42.56\00:41:43.90
Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:43.97\00:41:45.30
And so he rang
them and they said,
00:41:45.33\00:41:46.67
"You have to come into the
shop to get that discount."
00:41:46.70\00:41:50.31
And he said, "Well, I'm up here,
00:41:50.34\00:41:51.81
and I'd have to
take time off work.
00:41:51.84\00:41:53.58
Is it possible to
extend that to me?"
00:41:53.61\00:41:57.05
And the girl said,
"Well, I'll have to go
00:41:57.08\00:41:58.51
and talk to the
manager, I'll ring you back."
00:41:58.55\00:42:00.95
So he's telling me this,
00:42:00.98\00:42:02.32
and he's
showing me his computer,
00:42:02.35\00:42:03.69
and the phone rang, right then,
00:42:03.72\00:42:05.65
and it was the girl
from the travel agent.
00:42:05.69\00:42:07.26
She said, "I went
and spoke to the manager,
00:42:07.29\00:42:08.89
and the manager said yes.
00:42:08.92\00:42:10.26
The manager
would let you have it.
00:42:10.33\00:42:11.66
So your air fares are
going to be $1,254.66."
00:42:11.69\00:42:16.03
And John said,
"We'll take them."
00:42:16.06\00:42:18.10
All right.
00:42:18.13\00:42:19.47
How can you argue with that?
00:42:19.50\00:42:20.84
But then they sent
through the invoice,
00:42:20.87\00:42:22.97
and they had a fee on top of it,
00:42:23.00\00:42:25.01
and it came out to $1,297.66.
00:42:25.04\00:42:29.74
See that.
00:42:29.78\00:42:31.58
And I said, "It is
still under $1,300."
00:42:31.61\00:42:34.22
So that's why we're here.
00:42:34.25\00:42:35.58
I kind of figured if
I had it down at $1,300,
00:42:35.62\00:42:37.62
that was guarantee
that we're good to go.
00:42:37.65\00:42:40.56
And he said, "I
should have made it 500."
00:42:40.59\00:42:42.96
But now, you're out here,
you're glad that you came.
00:42:42.99\00:42:45.96
I am. He always
is when he gets here.
00:42:45.99\00:42:47.60
Yeah.
00:42:47.63\00:42:48.96
But then we got to look
at the journey going home.
00:42:49.00\00:42:50.67
Oh, it's the same way.
00:42:50.70\00:42:52.03
I'm that way about going
there, going to Australia.
00:42:52.07\00:42:54.64
I mean when you
don't like to sit
00:42:54.67\00:42:57.14
and, you know, it's
just not comfortable
00:42:57.21\00:43:00.81
and you're flying all the
way, you know, you go to LA,
00:43:00.88\00:43:03.35
and that takes hours,
and then you get on a flight
00:43:03.38\00:43:06.21
that's 15 hours non-stop or
so, sometimes more, coming back.
00:43:06.25\00:43:10.69
And then once you get
there, it's another two,
00:43:10.72\00:43:12.55
two and a half hours if
we go where we're going.
00:43:12.59\00:43:15.29
So it's very easy to
talk your way out of it.
00:43:15.32\00:43:17.33
Yes, it is.
00:43:17.36\00:43:18.69
We usually say, "Well,
if the Lord wants us here,
00:43:18.73\00:43:20.50
He lets us know and
then we'll go and do it."
00:43:20.53\00:43:23.47
You know what,
what a privilege that
00:43:23.50\00:43:24.83
we up to this point have been
able to travel that's the way.
00:43:24.87\00:43:28.40
I used to hate traveling,
I used to hate driving.
00:43:28.44\00:43:31.47
Yvonne knows now,
00:43:31.51\00:43:32.84
we've driven to
Florida and back.
00:43:32.87\00:43:34.21
Yeah. I never do that.
00:43:34.28\00:43:35.61
I didn't like driving
to West Frankfort and back,
00:43:35.64\00:43:37.55
I travel so much, and
that's 10 minutes away.
00:43:37.58\00:43:40.12
Right.
00:43:40.15\00:43:41.78
But now I said, "You know what,
00:43:41.82\00:43:43.28
at our age to be able to have
the health so far to do this,
00:43:43.32\00:43:47.46
let's just do it
and praise the Lord
00:43:47.49\00:43:48.96
and be glad."
00:43:48.99\00:43:50.46
And that's what we're doing.
00:43:50.53\00:43:51.86
I said to John,
"You've just got to think,
00:43:51.89\00:43:53.23
while I'm stuck on
that plane, it's down time.
00:43:53.26\00:43:55.90
It's time to vegetate,
00:43:55.93\00:43:57.93
it's time to just relax
to do what I want to do."
00:43:57.97\00:44:00.64
Or write your book.
00:44:00.67\00:44:02.00
Or write your next
book, that's right.
00:44:02.04\00:44:03.37
We read a book.
00:44:03.41\00:44:04.74
You guys got to write
your story, you got it?
00:44:04.77\00:44:06.11
Yeah, we got to
get your story written.
00:44:06.14\00:44:07.91
We're starting to put down
some of God's answered prayers,
00:44:07.94\00:44:11.08
so we can put
them on the internet.
00:44:11.11\00:44:12.58
Nice.
00:44:12.61\00:44:13.95
Do that 'cause
should the Lord tarry,
00:44:14.02\00:44:15.35
we're all not
going to be here forever,
00:44:15.38\00:44:16.72
so let's get the
stories down so they're there
00:44:16.75\00:44:19.52
and people for
however long afterwards.
00:44:19.55\00:44:22.76
We've had some
exciting answers to prayer,
00:44:22.79\00:44:24.79
especially recently, haven't we?
00:44:24.83\00:44:26.39
Yeah.
00:44:26.43\00:44:27.76
I mean, that one was
just one illustration
00:44:27.80\00:44:29.73
that God showed
John, "I want you there.
00:44:29.76\00:44:33.00
You have to be there."
00:44:33.03\00:44:34.47
But John lost his phone,
00:44:34.50\00:44:36.37
and we had the most
incredible answer to prayer,
00:44:36.40\00:44:38.84
finding the phone
out in the country
00:44:38.87\00:44:41.18
where we had
been a couple of days
00:44:41.21\00:44:42.74
before on the side of the road.
00:44:42.78\00:44:45.21
Oh, my. Nearly out of battery.
00:44:45.25\00:44:46.61
Yeah.
00:44:46.65\00:44:47.98
But we'd have
tell you that story
00:44:48.02\00:44:49.35
some other time,
there's not a lot time now.
00:44:49.38\00:44:50.72
There's a lot more we could say,
00:44:50.79\00:44:52.12
but time is short,
but we just feel that
00:44:52.15\00:44:55.72
we've been really
blessed in Australia
00:44:55.76\00:44:57.99
and, you know,
our viewers out there
00:44:58.03\00:45:00.00
have supported 3ABN Australia.
00:45:00.03\00:45:03.13
I can remember, Danny,
when you were saying...
00:45:03.16\00:45:06.13
You were talking
on 3ABN Today program,
00:45:06.17\00:45:08.90
and we were actually watching,
00:45:08.94\00:45:10.34
standing at the back of
our seats, watching you,
00:45:10.41\00:45:12.34
and you looked up, and you said,
00:45:12.37\00:45:14.48
"John and Rosemary, if
you got any your reason
00:45:14.51\00:45:16.08
why I shouldn't
sign the contract
00:45:16.11\00:45:17.45
to go to our Optus D2,
that's people in Australia...
00:45:17.48\00:45:20.92
Contact me."
00:45:20.95\00:45:22.55
And, you know, I
actually felt like
00:45:22.58\00:45:24.32
I was sweating great drops
of blood to make that happen.
00:45:24.35\00:45:26.22
I'm standing there...
00:45:26.25\00:45:27.59
I'm standing there
saying, "Sign it, sign it."
00:45:27.66\00:45:29.42
That was Rosemary.
00:45:29.46\00:45:32.16
And I'm saying, "I
don't know about this."
00:45:32.19\00:45:34.53
Because I'd
written in a question
00:45:34.56\00:45:35.93
to the guest that you had.
00:45:35.96\00:45:38.03
Okay. You said,
"Oh, this is John.
00:45:38.07\00:45:39.70
I'm going to
sign this contract."
00:45:39.73\00:45:41.50
So...
00:45:41.54\00:45:42.87
"Oh, I have a
live television..."
00:45:42.90\00:45:44.87
I'm in
Australia listening to you
00:45:44.91\00:45:46.78
giving me a live message,
and you can't hear my reply.
00:45:46.81\00:45:50.85
And when I think about that,
00:45:50.88\00:45:52.41
it really shows
how faithful God is.
00:45:52.45\00:45:56.28
Because He said, "If
you do My work," you know,
00:45:56.32\00:45:59.12
we didn't plan to do
this, really we didn't.
00:45:59.15\00:46:00.99
I know.
00:46:01.02\00:46:02.36
And God has provided
the money now for 15 years
00:46:02.39\00:46:05.86
to pay that satellite,
and when you add it up,
00:46:05.89\00:46:08.86
it comes to
millions, and I'm thinking,
00:46:08.90\00:46:11.30
"Where did that come from?"
00:46:11.33\00:46:12.67
I know. Where did it come from?
00:46:12.70\00:46:14.80
Faithful people.
Yeah, absolutely.
00:46:14.84\00:46:16.40
Faithful people.
00:46:16.44\00:46:17.77
That's what it
all boils down to.
00:46:17.81\00:46:19.14
But they don't
give just to be giving,
00:46:19.17\00:46:20.71
they give because
they see the gospel,
00:46:20.78\00:46:23.68
the three angels'
messages reaching people
00:46:23.75\00:46:26.31
that has never
been reached before,
00:46:26.35\00:46:28.52
and it's the
commitment from that.
00:46:28.55\00:46:30.42
And if you guys weren't
being frugal, if you weren't,
00:46:30.49\00:46:33.56
you know, producing,
00:46:33.59\00:46:35.19
so to speak,
people wouldn't give.
00:46:35.22\00:46:37.63
So we want to say
thank you for you guys
00:46:37.66\00:46:40.03
being so faithful to the
Lord, and your programming,
00:46:40.10\00:46:42.73
and your
outreach, and witnessing,
00:46:42.76\00:46:44.93
and going to places
you really don't want to go
00:46:44.97\00:46:48.04
in order for people
to hear about Jesus.
00:46:48.07\00:46:50.81
From that experience,
Danny, I learned something.
00:46:50.84\00:46:52.81
When we were going to go
on to this VAST platform,
00:46:52.84\00:46:55.41
which is a government
platform where all the channels
00:46:55.44\00:46:58.51
that you get in Australia
are now visible via satellite.
00:46:58.55\00:47:02.58
So at that time,
when I went to discuss
00:47:02.62\00:47:06.89
with the Optus
company about going on there,
00:47:06.96\00:47:11.26
the first thing the manager
or the salesman said to me,
00:47:11.29\00:47:14.00
"Do you know how much it costs?
00:47:14.03\00:47:16.20
He said, "Do you know
how much it costs to see?"
00:47:16.23\00:47:17.57
I've got an idea, you
know, we're on Optus D2,
00:47:17.60\00:47:20.17
this is C1 now
00:47:20.24\00:47:21.57
which is the
Commercial 1 satellite.
00:47:21.60\00:47:23.44
And he said,
"It's a lot of money,
00:47:23.51\00:47:25.61
and we get lots of people
calling in want to go on there.
00:47:25.64\00:47:29.91
But when I tell them the price,
we don't hear from them again."
00:47:29.94\00:47:33.85
And, you know,
I'd prayed about this,
00:47:33.92\00:47:35.78
and this was a
direct answer to prayer.
00:47:35.82\00:47:37.92
And when you know it's
a direct answer to prayer,
00:47:37.95\00:47:40.59
I didn't have to go and
have a committee meeting.
00:47:40.66\00:47:42.39
All right That's right.
00:47:42.42\00:47:43.76
There you go. It
was God who was there.
00:47:43.83\00:47:45.49
Didn't have to worry
about the price, it was...
00:47:45.53\00:47:48.36
And God worked it out
in such a miraculous way,
00:47:48.40\00:47:51.40
it'd take me half an
hour to go through it,
00:47:51.43\00:47:53.37
but it's really interesting,
it is really interesting
00:47:53.44\00:47:56.84
what God did in
getting us onto that platform
00:47:56.91\00:48:00.48
which is being such a
blessing all around Australia.
00:48:00.51\00:48:03.28
Yeah, and, of course,
00:48:03.35\00:48:05.08
the needs
continue, as they do here.
00:48:05.11\00:48:08.12
And so I want to
just say that anybody
00:48:08.15\00:48:11.39
who is watching 3ABN
00:48:11.42\00:48:12.99
and being blessed
by these programs,
00:48:13.02\00:48:14.42
no matter where you're watching,
00:48:14.46\00:48:15.79
even on the internet,
let alone on satellite,
00:48:15.82\00:48:17.83
somewhere really listen to God
00:48:17.86\00:48:21.30
because I'm sure that
He's telling many of you,
00:48:21.33\00:48:23.30
"Please support this ministry
00:48:23.37\00:48:24.87
because it's so
important in these last days."
00:48:24.90\00:48:27.74
Whether it's in the U.S.
00:48:27.77\00:48:29.74
that services so
much of the world,
00:48:29.77\00:48:31.61
Russia and other
places as well or in Australia
00:48:31.64\00:48:34.18
where we are
reaching out to people
00:48:34.21\00:48:35.84
around the world with the same,
00:48:35.88\00:48:37.91
do send in your donations
because they are needed
00:48:37.95\00:48:42.25
to get this message finished.
00:48:42.28\00:48:44.69
Well, again, I just
want to thank both of you
00:48:44.72\00:48:47.56
for what you do
for the cause of God,
00:48:47.59\00:48:50.36
and I'm always amazed
when I hear their stories.
00:48:50.43\00:48:53.09
Yes. They're
very similar to ours.
00:48:53.13\00:48:56.70
And what it says
to me, Jesus says,
00:48:56.77\00:48:58.83
"Go ye into all the world."
00:48:58.87\00:49:00.84
So when you
say, "Okay, I'm a ye.
00:49:00.87\00:49:03.51
Lord, use me", He
does. That's right.
00:49:03.54\00:49:06.91
And He will provide every need,
00:49:06.98\00:49:09.54
that's what
Philippians tells us,
00:49:09.58\00:49:11.85
"I can do all
things through Christ
00:49:11.88\00:49:13.52
which strengthens me because,"
00:49:13.55\00:49:16.28
skip one down 13, into 19,
00:49:16.32\00:49:18.49
"my God shall
supply all of your need
00:49:18.52\00:49:21.29
according to His
riches and glory."
00:49:21.32\00:49:22.79
With 3ABN, we don't
have money in the bank
00:49:22.82\00:49:26.29
that's just sitting
there to do nothing,
00:49:26.33\00:49:28.16
but after 33 almost,
going on 34 years this fall,
00:49:28.20\00:49:32.50
I can look at the folks and say,
00:49:32.53\00:49:33.94
"Everything we
have now is paid for."
00:49:33.97\00:49:35.90
It's not always been that
way, but God has been faithful.
00:49:35.94\00:49:39.57
And when we're faithful,
He supplies every need.
00:49:39.61\00:49:43.45
We look back to John and
Rosemary, and we have no...
00:49:43.48\00:49:46.41
How in the world did this happen
00:49:46.45\00:49:47.85
and millions of
millions of dollars
00:49:47.88\00:49:50.19
through all of these
years that it's taken,
00:49:50.22\00:49:53.59
new doors every time,
new communication highways
00:49:53.66\00:49:57.43
come up, we have to get on.
00:49:57.46\00:49:58.79
Yes. That's right.
00:49:58.83\00:50:00.16
We have to quit doing
what we did or at least,
00:50:00.20\00:50:02.40
focus on other things
now, all of this social media,
00:50:02.43\00:50:05.97
all of these...
00:50:06.00\00:50:07.34
The new, you know,
the phones, the apps,
00:50:07.37\00:50:08.70
the fast technologies.
00:50:08.74\00:50:10.11
And even going
from analog to digital.
00:50:10.14\00:50:12.07
Absolutely, all of it.
00:50:12.11\00:50:13.48
Type less, the cost to do that.
00:50:13.51\00:50:15.21
You have to do it.
00:50:15.24\00:50:16.58
You know, Danny, when we started
00:50:16.61\00:50:17.95
to build the production center,
00:50:17.98\00:50:19.31
we didn't have enough
money, well, I thought.
00:50:19.35\00:50:20.95
Yeah.
00:50:20.98\00:50:22.32
And I thought, well,
I'll stage it, you know,
00:50:22.35\00:50:23.69
here can be building stages.
00:50:23.72\00:50:25.05
Right.
00:50:25.09\00:50:26.42
Well, you know what,
I still sit here today,
00:50:26.45\00:50:28.59
and we watched as I was drawing
down on the money that we had,
00:50:28.62\00:50:31.66
we're not going to finish this.
00:50:31.69\00:50:33.03
It stayed the
same. It stayed the same.
00:50:33.06\00:50:34.60
And, you know, we
didn't borrow one cent,
00:50:34.63\00:50:37.17
we didn't ask
anyone for one dollar,
00:50:37.20\00:50:39.13
we asked the Lord,
and He provided it all,
00:50:39.17\00:50:40.87
and we have a completed
production center in Australia.
00:50:40.94\00:50:43.81
Now you could just
put a period on that.
00:50:43.84\00:50:45.27
There you go.
00:50:45.31\00:50:46.68
Right? That's right.
00:50:46.71\00:50:48.04
God said do it and you did
it, you didn't have to go beg,
00:50:48.08\00:50:50.18
you didn't have
to do it, God did it.
00:50:50.25\00:50:52.15
You did what He asked you to do,
00:50:52.18\00:50:54.45
but He works through
His people as you just said.
00:50:54.48\00:50:57.19
So those of as the
Holy Spirit's impressing,
00:50:57.22\00:50:59.29
we're going to put
up the address here
00:50:59.32\00:51:00.66
in just a moment
that you want to support
00:51:00.69\00:51:02.69
3ABN Australia,
3ABN U.S., whatever,
00:51:02.72\00:51:06.90
we're one big
family, and it happens...
00:51:06.93\00:51:08.43
But we encourage you
to support 3ABN Australia,
00:51:08.46\00:51:11.37
especially those
of you Down Under,
00:51:11.40\00:51:13.27
in that area of the world
00:51:13.34\00:51:14.67
because what they're
doing is reaching people
00:51:14.70\00:51:17.51
that there is really
no other way to do it.
00:51:17.54\00:51:19.51
Because when... See, I'm...
00:51:19.54\00:51:22.71
Thus Danny, but when
Revelation 18 and, you know,
00:51:22.74\00:51:26.72
and the earth was
lightened with the glory of God,
00:51:26.75\00:51:29.12
I see the three
angels as there's,
00:51:29.15\00:51:31.92
an angel's just a messenger,
00:51:31.95\00:51:33.39
so I see the
angels as messengers.
00:51:33.46\00:51:36.29
So I think John
Revelator looked up
00:51:36.32\00:51:38.36
and saw these
satellites in space,
00:51:38.39\00:51:40.93
saw it going down into homes
of people through televisions
00:51:40.96\00:51:43.77
and other ways and he fainted.
00:51:43.80\00:51:45.30
He says that's...
00:51:45.33\00:51:47.77
I mean, you couldn't, you
know, they probably didn't have,
00:51:47.80\00:51:51.11
you know, megaphones at best
00:51:51.14\00:51:53.48
back then if
they even had those,
00:51:53.51\00:51:55.48
and yet, he said and
these angels literally
00:51:55.51\00:51:58.21
and the earth was
lightened with the glory of God.
00:51:58.25\00:52:01.45
And there's only
one way to do that,
00:52:01.48\00:52:02.98
today, we're
doing it, thanks to you.
00:52:03.02\00:52:04.75
That's right.
00:52:04.79\00:52:06.12
The earth was
lightened with the glory of God,
00:52:06.15\00:52:07.49
using
technology to bring it down
00:52:07.56\00:52:09.42
into homes of millions,
yet, hundreds of millions
00:52:09.46\00:52:12.19
of people around the world.
00:52:12.23\00:52:14.10
When John and I were leaving
the mission field, we said,
00:52:14.13\00:52:16.06
"Lord, we don't want to go
back to secular employment.
00:52:16.10\00:52:19.07
We want to work for
You 24/7 as we did before."
00:52:19.10\00:52:22.20
We just didn't realize
the extent of our prayer
00:52:22.24\00:52:26.37
that He would pull us
into 24/7 television and radio,
00:52:26.41\00:52:30.45
which would almost consume 24/7.
00:52:30.48\00:52:32.81
What I want to do is we're
going to put up their address.
00:52:32.85\00:52:35.68
And so you pray and ask the Lord
00:52:35.72\00:52:37.39
what He would have you to do,
00:52:37.42\00:52:38.99
then we're going
to go to news break
00:52:39.02\00:52:40.39
and come back for
a following thought.
