00:16 >> Hello and welcome back to 3ABN today live behind the scenes. We're so glad that you 00:22 have joined us this Evening. The first hour went by in a hurry. We've done a little bit 00:25 of musical chairs and switched out with some of our family. We mentioned guess. But they're 00:30 part of our 3 been family. We want to say thank you for being a part of 3ABN, family. 00:34 And thank you for your prayers and financial support for this ministry. Seems like we kind of 00:41 rattle that off kind of every program. But we really need it. You know, you're making a 00:44 difference in somebody's life even this evening and are watching 3ABN because someone 00:48 is financially supporting and praying for this ministry. And you know what's so 00:53 encouraging to me is as we've been through this year last year of covid, it seems like 00:55 it's kind of rearing its head again, as we talked about in the first hour. God is 01:00 continuing to provide for the needs of this ministry. You know, in this current role that 01:06 I'm in. I'm relatively new. It. Add it. And when covid hit. I have to be honest with you. 01:12 My heart kind of skipped a beat like whoa. Now what's going to happen. But you know what, 01:17 I was rebuked by the Lord reading the scriptures. Those no need to worry God says he's 01:22 got it. This is his ministry. And we have the privilege to be a vessel that God can pour 01:27 through no matter what we do here. 3ABN no matter what you're doing, whatever sphere 01:32 of influence you have in your home. God is using you and you're here for a purpose and 01:37 it's exciting to be alive and this moment in Earth's history for sure than men. 01:41 >> And I was just thinking as you're talking about that faith journey that's true. What a 01:46 blessing to be honest, I turned. And that's right. You know, this is kind of 01:49 personal. But I know the times we get down on our face. More gonna 100 room, an ECON 01:55 this ministry needs to go forward and we can't do it without you. How are we going 01:58 to do that. And then all of a sudden sometimes that very day check comes in from one of 02:03 you at home and we realize that God it holds this ministry and the palm of his hands and he 02:11 wants the gospel to go forward and it's not about strine harder or doing anything. 02:16 God's the one at the helm of this ministry. That's right. Lesson. 02:20 >> You know, I appreciate mention the faith aspect of it because it has been a growing 02:24 experience for John myself. about we walk by faith and not by sight and so it's a day by 02:31 day process. And and I know that many of you give sacrificial e thank you so much 02:35 for doing that. I think about the person since then. I believe it was last year. 02:41 They sent and $0.99 and they spent the money to send up and put a stamp on the envelope and 02:49 then they sent $0.99 and maybe the person that gave it felt it wasn't very much be know. 02:51 They gave because they felt impressed to give. And you know what happens. God's the one 02:57 that God is the one who does the increasing multiplies matter what we given. So thank 03:01 you. Thank you for being a part of the ministry and want to introduce. We've got on the set 03:06 with us now. And then we switched out family members we can say and we're delighted to 03:10 have more of our family here tonight. >> We have Tim Parnell was the 03:15 general manager cavium praising music network.

Yeah. >> And so but I'm the only one 07:29 of the 3 that's still >> And then Mike, you join not long afterwards. Of course. 07:33 But I think about radio, you know, we talk about television, but many of you. 07:37 >> Listen to 3ABN radio are listening right now as well. That has massive impact around 07:42 the world because it's not only the stations but we've also got ability on our phones 07:49 and other devices. I guess that's the right word to use and that people can pick up 07:53 a 3 been radio in even in our local civil servant at a church. We've had people coming 07:58 through the doors. say hey, I found through through 3ABN radio W DQ end, 08:03 which is our local station. That is 95.9. All right. And people find and listen, 08:10 their lives are changed. So thank you. Yes, it was very gratifying.

Putting 09:08 your journey like how did you even communal era come here to >> We that we've been living 09:20 and working in Portland, Oregon. That's like right next door 09:25 to thompsonville. >> Haha miles and miles away as you to full. 09:33 Maybe that the Lord had other plans for I've been working for one of 09:40 the stations are in Portland for quite a while and and. >> The direction of that 09:48 station at that hip-hop was was in its kind of beginning stages and growing. And I was 09:55 at the time I was involved with engineering. I'm getting my feet with that 10:03 and. we have been watching we I think at one point we got be 10:10 in. We ordered the satellite dish. I heard about it. You know. restarted watch in. 10:19 we had seen at the time there was an ad that was run looking for radio engineer. Wow. 10:28 Well, I I'm I'm comfortable I find just my family in my wife's family live on the West 10:35 Coast so you know, we're used to being around all of them. We started having. 10:46 Individuals from our local church instead of say, hey. >> I seen in 3ABN. They have an 10:52 opening. If you thought about that. Yeah, quickly haha and I had been 11:01 there is one day I was talking with my >> at the station in Portland. 11:08 And and I had mentioned that to him and he said. >> You might want to think 11:16 about that. Why he says, well. >> You know, I I've really 11:21 enjoyed you here are like you here. >> But I see the row, the route 11:29 that the station is going, you know, and and I'm getting close to re. He's getting close to 11:37 retirement. And. He's concerned you know about different things with the 11:43 world. Does things and he says, you know, I know you have a special thing for the Sabbath 11:52 for Saturday is in your heart. You you know, and I I I won't 12:00 be there to kind of stand up for in those instances. And I said, well, you know. 12:05 I think you very much, but I have it in my heart. I'm from on this. 12:12 For not working on the Sabbath and. You know, if it comes down to 12:22 my job or the 7th. I got to go with the saboteur know. And and so he's he's he 12:27 continued to say no thinking he should check into it. So. Make the story 12:37 even longer. >> In >> an Nikki Anderson who has 12:46 since retired with this. She responded back. And. We didn't hear anything. 12:58 We have been praying about it. He left to Lord's hand. So nothing was happening. We had 13:06 gone. A little bit later. We had gone to Oregon can't and while we are there were 13:14 a couple. 3 being ready representatives there Manning the 3 being 13:25 booth. and so we. We toured around went and saw them and talk to them a little 13:29 bit and they sit, you know, we have an opening in S a haha. I applied and got a response 13:35 and haven't heard anything. Haven't heard anything. Well, when they came back. 13:43 it started. Hey, there's a guy out there this interest in the engineering that you have 13:48 opening in. >> And so little bit later. We got an e-mail. Wow. And. 14:00 And at that time was Gonzales and toes. And so we responded exchanged a 14:07 few e-mails and and it kind of quieted down and and. Emails came back up and in. 14:13 So then it finally came to a point where something was said in and we Villar and I looked 14:20 at each other. We said, well. Let's continue to pray about it. But at this point, I think 14:29 the Lord sending his say. A sign that, you know, this is not for us. 14:34 Then we get to an e-mail that come in. >> Hold the did I tell you 14:41 about this. >> No. Okay. I guess Lourdes saying yes. Now wow. 14:46 >> And then it came down to one of the things we were thinking about at that time was what are 14:51 we going to do about school for the children. Yeah. And. We get an email. We've all 15:02 heard the story I think that one dollar. I think it was that came in was somebody 15:05 wanted to start the school. You know. we're thinking, well, I don't 15:15 know of a school. Here comes an e-mail in we've got to school. We just 15:24 started up and we're glad to have you. We're looking at costs there in 15:34 the Portland area. And because there was getting ready to start up and we're 15:38 sitting there. Well. Okay. We're going to have to make some adjustments to be 15:43 able to afford that. And then we heard they have the school here. We thought wow. 15:52 To move away from family. A place we've never been, you know. 15:58 A job that, you know, we're just or I don't know that we can afford the school for the 16:04 kids. At just after he said that. We're getting ready for bed. 16:11 And I said let me check the e-mail one more time. Here comes an Did I 16:21 tell you that there's a special tuition for those who are members of the church in their 16:33 you didn't. Haha it well, Lord is blessing there right. You know, so we just, you know, 16:42 it was just one thing after another we were thinking the door was closed in the Lord 16:48 open. The doors. Secure is gun and then it was worked we were it was the. 17:03 and. We were invited to come here. And so we're looking at tickets 17:07 to come out here. I don't know. Look at the prices for the 2 of us to come out. And so we. 17:18 I did one of these name your price. Things. Wow. It was accepted. 17:28 >> Not just a little over a $100 for the hour for each of us high. But still good here 17:38 >> And so we came visited. >> said yes. And then on the plane going back. We started 17:44 3 thinking how we get to make this move. Satan was planning things in. 17:52 And and long and short obviously we finally said yes, we really felt the Lord moving 18:03 so we we accepted the position The story is we need to work on. Are hiring 18:11 process know haha no. The moral of the story as God brings yes. Thank God you brought you in 18:17 your wife and her family. >> And we wouldn't change it one bit. If we had to do it 18:21 over. You know. >> I think everybody does come here is had struggles from time 18:26 to time. With whatever. Sure. >> And you know, even in those struggles we have seen God 18:36 moving and you know. We will still say if we had that same opportunity given us 18:44 today that we would have changed it. Yeah, we would continue with it because God is 18:50 so blast and then. >> You your wife and your kids from school some of them are 18:57 working here at 3ABN and have that's a varied and number one, having a baby which Mister 19:06 Danny mentioned about him being a great grandfather. Well, my dad and his wife are 19:10 grandparents. If that seems on real doesn't parents. Well, I've your daughter to marry 19:17 Jesse. Yes. So they're having a baby. This going to be born here in the next couple of So 19:23 excited about that. You know, talking about the, you know, being a part of the family and 19:26 the EU being part of our family. We mentioned this in the first hour. comment on 19:32 this. But this has to do on fall candy and being together as family and how that has 19:34 changed a little bit because of covid again, kind of rearing its head. So talk to us about 19:40 fall cam in the significant changes taking place so far can't meeting is still 19:44 happening. That's right. >> We're not offcampus people come. In other words, you need 19:48 to stay home and watch on treaty. And so we are having fall camp meeting September 19:55 23 through 25. We are looking forward to it, too, will be anointed music and sermons 20:00 messages from the word of God. But we are not having an in-person can't meeting meaning 20:06 you stay home and watch from home it's due to the rise of covid that's been going on and 20:11 we're sorry for that. We wish that it were open because we really want to me even see you 20:17 and talk with you, but we encourage you you during camp meeting. You can Texas will be 20:21 given that number during camp me or you can message your comments. And we want to 20:26 connect the view that way, but fall camp any we're looking forward to that. On September 20:29 20 to 25. >> Yeah, absolutely. That's coming up. Really are also want 20:34 to touch on this. The second hour here. This is the focus on truth project were given an 20:38 update the the first hour. But you consent all 3 of these booklets, which is the truth 20:44 about salvation, the truth about hellfire and the truth about the 10 Commandments. 20:48 In a nice little white envelope, all for the. Price. May I say of $0.50 is 20:55 not a credible that includes the 3 booklet. That includes the post is that includes the 20:59 little white envelope. And you know, postage stamp costs. $0.55 just saw that graphic 21:04 there. So this is less than the price of a stamp. And that's absolutely amazing. 21:08 And that's here within the U.S. a zip code here in the U.S. but the call center, they're 21:13 open tonight. So that number is 6, 1, a 6 to 7, 4, 6, 5, 1, and they'd be happy to explain 21:19 to you how you can send these book was to zip code of your choice or Joe mentioned first 21:23 hour. You can also buy cases of these booklets 250 of each topic coming to come in a case 21:31 and the suggested donation is 1650. That includes the books and the shipping to your 21:36 address here in the U.S. it's really amazing you know, we mentioned in the first hour. 21:38 You mentioned about a church in Indianapolis and we're getting a lot of response here 21:42 about how you're participating in this project. So in between the this idea came Jorge. 21:51 He's our production manager said hey, wouldn't be need to see pictures of you may be 21:56 distributing them or immune your church, your family that are distribute these books or 22:00 what you're doing. So great idea. Thank you, Jorge. So send those pictures to us because in 22:04 the next upcoming may behind the scenes will show some of those pictures. Well, this is 22:09 how you can do it. You can send it to the e-mail and it's very simple. It's mail. 22:16 I l at 3 aetn dot TV. That's mail I l. 22:23 >> I l had 3 aetn dot TV send those pictures to us and we'd be happy to show them on the 22:28 next behind the scene because we know that many of you are participating are hearing about 22:32 >> I just want to say you did a really good job with that. And now I work myself out of 22:34 the top for that you have you did really well. >> Oh, you mean trying about 22:42 that. The first hour. Did yeah. Hours. Look at John states. We want you but we want to hear 22:49 from you when you want to showcase what's in your churches and how you're 22:51 distributing in the vandalizing. So. >> Speaking of connection, with 22:58 our TV and family before we have a incredible opportunity with radio. Before we go to 23:03 that is yes. Can we talk about the blog for a minute and we launched 3ABN killing 3 band's 23:07 first ever block. So tell us about that. >> So a blog is simply a a kind 23:15 like a that this this particular blog is some receive Rafferty. James Jeffries wife, 23:25 Bobby Davis. He has been here for many years. As a producer and editor and. 23:30 >> He is contributing to this blog as well as I am Jason. Bergman has contributed so 23:40 we're writing a different whatever somewhat expertise, it is writes from I kind of 23:52 a recovery idea. Risi rights on health and wellness that's her background I'm writing on 24:00 wisdom or the lack thereof and the pursuit of yeah. Mike from a lot of experience that I'm 24:05 lacking that I'm working through. Jason, of course, is writing from from a financial 24:12 point of that we are also getting entries from past all so so it it's just it's great. 24:19 It's kind of an extension of of what's definitely extension of 3ABN but also maybe a little 24:26 bit into the magazine. The world magazine. But kindling is of course, an object that used 24:32 to start a fire and so that's what we want each of articles to be is something that will 24:39 start a fire may be something that will spark something. I know. I like how Paul talked 24:46 to in second, Timothy chapter one to Timothy. He you know, stir up. And actually that word 24:51 stirrup means kindle the fire. That is a new so it it's a this is a good to something that 25:01 hopefully again, Sparks work. Something you know this morning, in fact, before I came 25:05 to work. I was I was cooking past couple of days. I've been some 25:10 cleaning out the fence row. So I had this pile of of weeds and things that needed to be 25:21 burned so I about 10 minutes 12 matches the fire to start. >> smoke. We didn't because the 25:40 thing wouldn't even my so you can you can you can only imagine what my entries to this 25:44 blog are. But you know, with me being so wise as to be trying to 25:50 light wet. so my point to you that you need to call my son it says he's a 25:57 good fires. The bright clear Lee need. There needs to be a hot line. My point being that 26:04 needs to be dry before you start if you want to so it needs to be prepared. I guess 26:13 so that's what I think that these these entries to the blog which they come it every Monday 26:20 some him central 07:00PM. Central. So we've got currently about 6, 5, 6, entries on on 26:27 there. You can go to 3ABN kindling, dot org. I think the graphic showed on the screen. 26:34 anyway, it's just a really it's it's kind of a fun project that we're working on. Not like we 26:40 needed another project because there's always plenty to do. something to stay connected 26:44 with you. And I hope that you will enjoy it. Read it comment on Let us know if I know from 26:50 my point of I was like to hear back from you. In fact, this week I was on. I commented on. 27:00 >> Some knives that I and it was the aisle just have to read it. It's about staying sharp 27:06 and anyway. So it's it's just a lot of fun and great project. And I'm really delighted. 27:09 Thanks for the opportunity to be creative in that. >> And that Yeah, I think each 27:16 one of the authors on the blog are incredibly gifted right up. So, you know, Tim and Bobby and 27:20 receive Jason. Pastoral. We haven't seen yet. That's coming. But I know it's going 27:25 to be amazing. But it's it's nice to just kind of window. You could say. And the each 27:32 person's world and learn and grow and ignite that fires. So I'm very, very excited about 27:36 a brand-new way to connect with you at home. I think you can also go on the website 27:43 subscribe. So you can be notified when the blog entries come that way. You don't have 27:47 to remember to go back and check the new ones. But you can be notified and that's a great 27:51 way to so thank you so much for >> yeah. Yeah, I think it's great because it's in its new 27:56 ways. We're trying to always reach and evangelize and find new ways to reach a new people 28:03 or just people like no different. Like you said, a window into what somebody 28:08 I think in the process and we've got a showing them in life. So again, Tim, that 28:12 address in cases at Yeah. Just quite didn't get to write it down. It's. 28:17 >> 3 ABN kindling K I Indio ing's guy could spill too. than me. Well, that's a big, 28:23 big are working. That's OK 3. A B in killing dot org. Okay. Yeah. And then you can 28:30 subscribe like you started and it will come to your mailbox or email box every Monday. And 28:34 you can just read it right there. Yeah. It's funny. Yeah. Absolutely. I agree see 28:41 she's she is bona fide smart. I'm telling you what I read. I was reading her coming of one 28:44 of her articles just today from our blog. I I felt very smart as I was reading it. I really 28:52 did. I not Reese. If you're watching. That was good stuff. good eats their talents and 29:01 oh yeah. The QB one to share and take that on to just want to kind of got that idea going, 29:06 though. You've taken on the project. And so thank you so much, Jim, for that. And so we 29:08 have an exciting thing like you're matching pertain to radio. 29:13 >> J. There's a window of opportunity that is getting ready to open that you at home, 29:18 maybe would be interested in participating in. I made my are OK. Did you notice what at 29:27 radio has a window. >> The cooling blog has you about Cuba earlier. That's 29:37 another window or door that's open. They were so, okay, let's have a window that's open. 29:43 >> I think it's been I could think was in 2007 the last time opened a window for 29:49 non-commercial. >> Radio stations. That's a long time and we don't know if 29:56 one is going ever open up again. Sooner or later, all of the radio frequencies are 30:01 going to be filled up. And the only way to get a radio station is to buy one the right now 30:08 people can start. They call them and see. But we just call it non-commercial 30:15 non-commercial educational. But you say in C E and most people have no idea what it is. 30:19 You know, when you see what set, but they understand non-commercial. And so that's 30:24 what it is. I'm anyssa for its full power radio stations anywhere probably a 100 Watts 30:34 of 200,000 want. Well, depending on the opening that they have. How much territory 30:39 they can cover and where other radio signals are and all of that. Michael, tell you all all 30:45 of those things because he's the expert and a lot of what I know. I got from will be able 30:51 to pass it along. that's coming up. The when the window November. Second through the 30:58 9th. Okay. We're talking a little over 2 months and one of the 31:03 first opens up and then you have another week. If you need that, they, you know, be ready 31:09 on. The second would be the best and we're glad to help anybody 31:15 do that now one thing the listeners and viewers need to understand is that. 31:21 The to go through people's mind. New York, Chicago, Los Louis and we've tried several 31:31 times the ceiling and we have a different but they think of big cities like that. Well, they're 31:37 wrapped up. There's going to be no, they're going to be no new radio stations But if you 31:43 look at the map of America. It's not all big cities and there are a lot of communities 31:51 across America that just may very well have room for radio station and so anybody that's 31:59 interested in that can contact us. We'll show you how to do it again. Now, I want to tell you 32:03 now and we'll tell you if you're a forward and good, it's best to do e-mail. Okay. 32:10 We can handle everything through email, his radio at 3 ABN dot org. 32:19 And you can put on whatever you want to start the subject line. Just let us know. New 32:23 radio station her or whatever we can send you paperwork to can talk you through the entire 32:30 process. The and so we'd be glad to work with anybody that wants to do it. I can hear him 32:38 on the phone off giving advice to our affiliates. You know, if they have as they're setting up 32:43 new equipment or of have a challenge or whatever Isis in talks with through it. And I 32:47 know he'll be available for that too. And the time comes. But that that's what they need 32:51 to do is just let us know we'll send them at least information to get him started and what 32:56 to do on how to get a full power radio state. >> So this is an opportunity 33:02 for people at home to say I want to become a 3ABN radio And how much would it cost 33:09 because that someone might be sent home saying, well, I don't have the money for that. 33:13 So do we have figures on I asking something that we don't know or. 33:17 >> All I'll just say I don't really have figures, but it's going to be over it over a 33:26 $100,000. The thing to think about. In my opinion, oftentimes we get concerned and 33:32 rightly so everybody wants to know what's the dollar figure. What's the dollar figure? 33:40 My thing is. We need this knees. Obviously prayer over it. 33:49 And if you feel that God is leading God's going to take care of those. Those needs are. 33:54 When when you start looking at the cost because there's attorney fees. There's 34:02 engineering fees. There's equipment fees and mean on and on and on. It 34:08 gets overwhelming. I kind of look at this kind of a is a David 34:17 and Goliath syndrome. Okay. You know that there's a lot of people out there listening to 34:22 this and this. You know, just the figure 100,000. Yeah. You which I 34:28 almost guarantee it's going to be way over that. But they're going to say. No way. 34:36 In reality there was no way that David could defeat Goliath. That's right. 34:45 >> One one stone. It took. >> So. >> Don't totally look at the. 34:53 The dollar figure is good. And then also. There's going to be lots of 35:00 Goliath. South. There that's going to say. You can't do this I in Satan is going press 35:07 point. I don't know anything all right. I don't know radio or but I feel God is is 35:16 directing me in this direction. If you feel God is directing you in that direction. Don't 35:23 you think he's going to take care of you. Yeah. Yeah. He will. Your eyes going That's 35:29 >> There's a story that I heard fairly early when they came to 3 a B. And so there was a 35:34 number of years ago and I believe it to be true. So if it's not true, somebody correct 35:37 me because I tell that occasionally to people. I understand Danny was not the 35:41 first person got impressed to people that got approached were professionals. The just knew 35:50 this couldn't be done. >> There's no way can't be done. I can't get that. I can't 35:57 get the money. I can get to support it. So expensive doing TV because it was just TV, as 36:04 you suggest TV only at the very beginning and so. God, when I think I heard any 36:09 use the phrase once that I was too stupid. Danny saying I was too stupid to know that I 36:15 couldn't do it. So I did it, you know, with the help of the Lord with the guidance of the 36:20 lower. And so there's always reasons not to do something that God will let people know. 36:26 And if this is something I want you to do. You understood about coming here. My family has a 36:30 similar story about had to come here. So many people that the work here have similar stories 36:36 how the Lord open doors and you can stick be with you. You feel it. You know, it. 36:43 And so put this in the Lord's hands. Let him show you. Yeah, that's excellent. So then 36:49 tell me then about then again, just first a clarification for me. So the windows that are 36:54 being open. Does that mean that there's frequencies available in every city. No, no. It's you 36:58 know, how do I find out, let's say parkersburg, West Virginia, little town. 37:02 >> I want to I want to put a radio station or for the press to do. How do I know fed? 37:05 There's a frequency available in parkersburg, West Virginia looks okay. We'll give you a 37:09 piece of paper that actually through all of this. But the short answer is and I know 37:13 Michael probably want to add to it. But the short answer is the piece of paper that we've 37:18 got gives instructions on how to do this on the first Michigan in need to do is spend 37:22 a little bit of money. Yep. You won't go broke, which sent a little bit of money hire 37:27 somebody that is a professional and they'll be able to tell them if. 37:32 They can put in the radio station where it would go what the power would be. They have. 37:39 Okay. They >> computer software. That's not cheap. Okay. That is. 37:46 The it gets information directly from the FCC of just about every licensed. 37:55 Broadcast, including cellular and all of that. And it also takes in account. 38:03 >> The. >> The jogger fee of the area. So 1, one thing to keep in 38:09 mind. These engineers that are doing these what we call frequency 38:12 studies or channel studies. They don't have to be in your area because everything is 38:21 pretty much done on on through the computer. Well, With the that they have connected with 38:30 the FCC. Okay. And so. If you have a specific location, he would tell them this is where 38:37 I'm thinking that I would like it. Okay. And if it's an exact location like at your church or 38:44 you have some property. If you give them that location and then they do their computer 38:48 stuff and come up with that. That study. If you don't know. Or have a specific thing. 38:59 You can say, well. I live in Po were ever And I think there 39:05 is this. >> what >> they'll do is they'll look 39:14 at that town. Try different scenarios can do. And come up with you know, hopefully come 39:22 up with a station in are now the station but a frequency or a channel to that. Meets the 39:32 criteria of not competing with other full power radio stations. Here's what you okay. 39:36 That's what you can, what you need to understand is that you tell this person either. 39:41 I wanted exactly at this particular place or I want to cover thompsonville. 39:49 >> I want to I want to cover, you know, the name of any other city OK. And tell me where the 39:54 signal can go tell me where we can put a transmitter and things like that with the 39:59 second scenario. You'll have a much better chance, OK of getting a radio station. 40:05 Okay. And then you look and you see where the signal goes and you say yes, that that's 40:08 an area that if we want to cover. And so then the Percy OK, so the kids into someone's 40:15 interested in actually a lot of people are viewing and listening tonight and they're 40:19 seeing all. Yeah, this would be wonderful. The key is to actually contact you all. 40:23 The new put him in contact with the right exact. You know, 3 been radio. You're offering 40:26 services offices. They will be happy to help. >> Because then did they become 40:31 an affiliate like you mentioned, of 3ABN radio. So that address again, I know 40:34 you were going mentioned multiple times J is radio radio at 3, 8, P N dot org. Okay. 40:45 know, everything you've been hearing that for I don't know how many years but many others. 40:49 I'm sure just remember a deal. Okay. At 3ABN, other. Okay. And I simply say, OK, and this 40:54 will send paperwork to them. Tell them who to get in touch with how to start off perfect 40:59 to get the frequency standing and so forth. And we're here. 41:05 >> To walk them, you know, to help them through all the it's not we're not sending them a 41:08 piece of paper in saying there you go. Yeah. >> Call us if you also a radio. 41:16 we're here to tell you we may not know the answers to some of their questions. 41:20 >> But we can direct them to where they can get those answers because there's a lot 41:26 of experience. You know, God has given you all and 3 even radio has. How many affiliates 41:30 approximately we are. We're in the neighborhood of 350, sometimes it's hard to know 41:35 exactly because we go around the world. But we have a lot of affiliates in America. We have 41:41 a lot of affiliates in Australia. New Zealand in that area. And then we have. 41:45 >> You know, radio stations. A different places around the world. So we're see in the 41:50 neighborhood of 350. Did we say just to clarify this windows for United States. We have not 42:00 FCC is the governor. >> and here in the United States Open outside the United 42:06 States. A lot of times that falls into. >> local organizations are FCC 42:14 type. And so this isn't for them. We're not speaking Brian, States. 42:18 >> I'm Mike, does it include territories and things like >> I think. Well, I think some 42:27 of them it does. So like lawn and they and their territory Rico the eye. Anybody that that 42:33 any of these territories and stuff. It falls under FCC speaking with an attorney or 42:41 there. There's ways you can find out through the Internet in search engines. 42:50 Yeah, OK, so then we're talking about the world. The rest of the world would if someone has 42:53 like, hey, you know, I'm in someplace in the world. >> Is there a possibility I 42:59 could do something here. They still sent an e-mail to you guys. You guys can maybe 43:01 send them to their local area or something to have a question like, hey helpers will help 43:10 so that, you know, addresses radio at 3 aetn dot org very good. I get a J. Yes. You got. 43:16 Yeah, that's fantastic. And you know, we know they got opens these Windows. You and I 43:21 like what you said to Mike, it's a comparison. Far as David and Goliath to. Yeah, Was seen 43:27 to be stacked against David. >> Ice, ice, baby with a lot 43:33 of throughout each day and and I keep hearing that story over and over, you know, a lot. 43:39 I don't know what to do it. I'm in unfamiliar territory. Kind of like what I am right 43:44 now. >> I just don't know what to do. 43:49 Look at the story of David and Goliath story and how God lead David in the 43:59 so I want to go to you than Tim here giving us a quick update as we've talked about 44:02 the window of opportunity guys >> 4, 3ABN, radio. Tell us about the price. And you know, 44:08 the opportunities that God is providing for 3 of in work. You know, the growth in the 44:13 correspondence. You getting programs. What God is doing. I was just thinking as they 44:17 were talking about being willing to to guide people through that process. I Brian 44:24 Dickens, who is the head of the programming to apartment. Boy. He was so instrumental. 44:32 I have this failure to launch syndrome it is. It's keeps me any failure because 44:40 it wasn't on the on my part. It thanks to somebody else who helped. 44:47 >> I heard you. We are a team. I mean, it's a beautiful thing to see. And I encourage you to 44:51 someone to help the few to a few and help somebody. You given that push or kick 44:58 whatever it takes you know, be gentle, help them get it, get it done. And so I moyes 45:07 mindful that it was Bryan, that put the put the thing together to make it launched. So since 45:11 then, I've I've got a lot, a lot of help and I and so grateful for my assistant and 45:18 the many editors that we have, which we are playing catchup praise him as playing catch up 45:24 on a lot of material. We we will have artist to come in. Tape. They record music. 45:31 Yeah, but we've gone through a little season of of not being able to have. Get all of those 45:37 edited ready for airing. But we are we are fixing that problem yeah. The guy got his 45:44 opened up the door and we so we have some editors now who are working fastidiously in 45:52 and seriously intently. So so that's we're excited. We're going to get some new content. 45:56 I have so many people who are right in saying and that we love your network. We we watch 46:00 a 24 7. We get tired of seeing the same things. So I encourage you to get outside and explore 46:09 of because you know, there's other things to do rather than watch TV. But hey, I understand 46:16 it's a good thing to do. What we want you to keep watching, but we are providing 46:19 some new material. So that is exciting and I am just I I will never stop being amazed at the 46:29 fact that this is a worldwide, you know, You jyp turkey places, you know that that I 46:37 can't even and have to look up on the map to define where these people e-mailing me from 46:48 mind. I was in in ministry for several years where travel on the road playing the piano and. 46:56 I want from coast to coast and in Canada, but not until they came to 3ABN. 47:05 will be mailed from foreign countries. And and then even even going overseas to 47:10 Australia and Russia and some to some wonderful opportunities. you are a part 47:15 of a worldwide family. So I'm really grateful for that. yeah, we're getting some a lot 47:21 of like I said, people watching and loving the music. Oh, yeah. it's encouraging inspiring. 47:28 And we're we're doing our best to make it. Keep it. Keep it coming. One program that I'm 47:32 excited about. I like to praise him in all the programming but that we have flagship programs 47:37 3, even today we have dare to dream or been. We're getting ready to launch. 47:41 >> And Francine mentioned the program here some time ago. But it's a kid's express which 47:45 is going to her flagship. Tim, you're getting ready. You're putting together the 47:49 flagship for praise him. So they can go to. You can go to at 3ABN praise him dot TV 47:57 and watch streaming live from right there on on our website. That's pretty simple. Yeah. 48:00 Personal. the more, of course, on roku and Apple TV. >> Amazon fire and one of the 48:06 great ways of course, is through 3 be an app if you can download right to your phone. 48:14 It is such a wonderful app. Yeah. Right there it is. And we're down there on the 48:17 bottom where the yellow one. And it's great it. I just really do love that. The 48:23 portability of it, you know, phones. I got a phone.

Well, you know, 48:42 there's the app is really simple. Rights Act will begin download it on their phone and 48:46 now they have So, yeah, so it's literally an evangelistic to.

You 49:01 vandalizing ministering. So yeah, great, great out and talking earlier. If you're 49:05 right, absolutely need to be a part of that. >> And then what about radio 49:10 and Jay Mike, the ways they can listen to radio okay. I'll let my candle and. 49:14 >> Haha, how can someone listen to 3 even radio. >> Well, the first one has 49:20 already been the 3 a B in apt. Is one. Internet. You can go to our 49:29 website and find a link there that will. Play any of any one of our 49:35 several channels that we have. Another >> you've got a roku or on the 49:46 places where TV is. We are very >> The other thing, the satellite you can listen to it. 49:53 >> Another thing that's kind of popular these days and I've experimenting with it. 49:58 >> Is like >> it's called the these little. 50:07 >> Devices the name is slipping him like Alexa. Yeah. Like and an apple has it's never a 50:19 Google has there. >> The Google many year where those are great ones that you 50:25 >> listen to course. Those are all Internet based. But virtually anywhere that you 50:32 got Internet. You can you can listen to us. >> So OK, so then we talked 50:40 affiliates. So how is someone actually know if there's an affiliate, obviously maybe 50:44 stumble across the area. But they're looking like how they find like 95.9. Is there a 50:47 list on the Web site somewhere. How can they find those frequencies. Let's say across 50:52 the United States. Yes, there is a list on our Web site. 3ABN radio dot org. Okay. 50:58 on there you can click on a list and it will tell you not only the radio stations were 51:02 on. >> We're on some. Internet radio stations as 51:07 well. You saw radio station. There is this is, you know, kind of a name, but it's not 51:14 exactly a reorganized by state around. So some of the road trip and there are there are 51:19 different things other than just radio station. So if you want to look and see where we 51:25 are in the state and that's a really good Then you look on the state to find the city. 51:31 And it tells you who is an and some of them are with us. 24 hours a day. Some pick us up 51:37 to for just part of the day. And we try to let people know perfect. You with a little 51:42 notes on that level because if they're with us all the time. If they're with us part-time 51:48 or So if you tune in or not there than maybe next time or on your way back. Tune in again 51:51 because it could be something they're doing locally And so though that's the way the 51:58 easiest way to find out just food or website. Excellent. Thank you so And Mike, you 52:01 mentioned just briefly about the different channels of 3 been radio has just mentioned 52:04 those for us as well. OK, we >> the 3 being radio music channel. So 24 hours, 24 7 a 52:16 and a little bit more being a little that Jay has coordinated in 52:23 and biblical. >> scriptures will read health tips well, the words of 52:32 encouragement in a single thing between some of the songs. Casey has and music can be a 52:37 yes. So there's a voice there to welcome people in and talk to them a little bit. It's not 52:42 just back to back good. We radio and then we also radio Russia. 52:51 >> Stick and radio, Australia fight. You can find all that on the to nap like were 52:58 mentioning. So there's just so many so many windows that. >> God is opened up for the 53:04 Ministry of 3ABN thank you for walking through those windows and doors are opening with us. 53:07 You know, because we're going through this. Together. But the time is go has gone by so 53:15 quickly. Any closing thoughts before and Jay to start with you here. The only thing that 53:20 that really comes to my mind is what we've been talking about up to now and that is with the 53:27 window coming up. But the the application for noncommercial 53:32 radio stations. But just take it a step further because what Mike was talking about, Israel. 53:38 People say I can do that. I don't have the money for this or that. Don't let that stop 53:42 you. Not just for this but anything for the Lord, if anything, for the Lord and just 53:48 ask Lord if this is what you want to show me guide me. And if he showing you one guy 53:55 to you. He will see you through and they don't need to worry excellent. And what about you, 54:02 Mike? Well, Jay, just said basically, you know, don't get discouraged or you 54:07 >> you know, look at all the examples that God has given us in Scripture. You know, you 54:11 got Gideon. You know, look what he fought with. You got David 54:21 and Goliath and I keep going back to the David and Goliath because it just keeps coming to 54:27 me because there's so many did they get discouraged over that. And and I think to that it's. 54:37 Applicable for our lives in general. It is these things so. You know, people praying about 54:44 it and looking to the Lord for for guidance and don't give up and then that's actually my 54:51 know. Yeah, that's right. you know what? I echo both of and its There was an artist 54:59 that I used to play for and she songs she had written said. >> God will make a way where 55:04 there seems to be no way wherever he is faithful. He will make a road. When you 55:10 bear a heavy load. I know God will make a way so hold on to his promise that if he does 55:17 stirring you to do anything in ministry. Yeah. You know, can't pray about it. Seek him 55:25 and trust him and have faith that he will make a way. >> Thank you. Tend to do it on 55:32 your heart and you know, your Bible open there and turn into a Scripture. 55:36 >> I was just looking up the Scripture why are we talking here? This is John chapter 4 55:41 for 35. It says do you not say there are still 4 months and then comes the harvest. I say 55:49 lift up your eyes and look at the fields because they are already white for harvest and I 55:53 was just thinking as we're talking here tonight about the opportunities for ministry. 55:57 Sure. The doors that might look a little scary to walk through. But yet God is calling you at 56:03 home right now to step forward in ministry to step out in evangelism to share Jesus with 56:11 your family and your neighbors and your community. There's many avenues here at 3ABN that 56:17 you can join hands with us in sharing Jesus. You can share the app and tell people how 56:21 they can have access to any one of these networks. You can take take this opportunity and 56:29 establish a radio a feeling it in your community or you can join hands with us with the 56:34 focus on shoes books in so many other ways. But step forward by faith and help that harvest 56:44 go A man. >> Thank you so being might thank you, Tim. We saw was a 56:49 blessing to be with you. That's a blessing to be with you at home. Thank you again 56:53 for being part of our family. And I want to just remind you, you know that Jesus loves you 57:00 and that nothing can separate you from God's love for you. Read Romans chapter 8 in the 57:07 30 versus 30's and great encouraging text. >> We'll see you again next 57:10 time. Thank you for joining us ♪ ♪ 57:22 ♪ ♪ ♪ 57:37 ♪ ♪ ♪ 57:52 ♪ ♪ |
