You saw in the wide shot, some of your 01:12 3ABN family here and we're so glad you're joining with us. 01:15 One of the reasons is because you're part of our family. 01:18 We look forward to spending these 2 hours with you each 01:20 Thursday evening behind the scenes. A lot of fun because 01:23 there's a lot of things that the Lord is doing through the 01:26 ministry of 3ABN, a lot of updates. We're going to be 01:28 talking about Spring/Summer. Got to get this right 01:31 Summer Camp Meeting yes, Summer Camp Meeting that he was 01:35 talking about the GC Session. We have a really special about 01:38 4 minute roll there we're going to roll here in just a few minutes 01:41 to from our local school, but a lot of fun things the Lord is 01:44 good. And we want to just say thank you for your prayers and 01:46 financial support for your ministry. The Lord's Ministry, 01:49 3ABN. It's because of you that 3ABN is able to reach the 01:54 entire world. Just amazing times we live in. 01:57 It is indeed I love Thursday night we get to share what God is 02:00 doing in your ministry. You get to come behind the scenes as it 02:04 were and talk to some of our family about what God is doing. 02:07 We have some of the family here and we're going to trade out 02:10 certain guests for the second hour as well. As you mentioned. 02:14 We are talking about summer camp meeting and we're going to 02:16 talk about the upcoming G C session. 02:19 We might get a short update about Cuba and find out about 02:21 evangelistic tools we have here at 3ABN how you can join 02:26 hands with us and help spread the Gospel. We have Mr. 02:30 Danny Shelton and should be sitting next to you, your 02:33 beautiful wife, Dr. Yvonne but she's been doing 02:35 programming all week Strategies for Strong. It's been busy 02:39 for her...which is a new Dare to Dream... 02:41 She's probably worn out. 02:42 >> They did a lot of programs and on our new set there in Studio B 02:47 it's beautiful yes to the Control Room is fabulous. We did a 02:51 dedication earlier this week, the it's phenomenal, you know, 02:53 it's phenomenal about technology. You talked to the crew as well 02:55 and talking about how back in the day maybe want to mention 02:57 that sci-fi your mom and as that don't even pay attention 03:00 to that. Yeah, we watched some of, you know, Dick Tracy, right, 03:05 Dick Tracy don't get shaking and he can talk into his watch 03:08 My mom, my dad, and mom that say that's so ridiculous don't even 03:13 you shouldn't even be watching that I mean cartoons are bad enough. 03:16 But this one, you know, as and so today you really do that 03:19 only. You can see people and talking your phones in everybody 03:23 has an uplink station right here in your, you know, your 03:25 computer, your phone or whatever. So it's amazing. 03:28 how technology is changed and when we look at all these LED 03:32 lights and correct, comparison to building two by-four heavy 2 03:35 by 4 walls. Yes. And putting dry wall on and them trying to tear 03:39 them down, move them. And so we ended up starting well let's get the 03:44 2 by 2. So we'd rip the 2 by 4's and make 2 by 2 03:47 and they will take a little Luan 1/4 inch that's a lighter. 03:51 It's lighter for... It's much lighter so then we had to 03:54 build big additions on the buildings to store all the sets 03:57 for all the different programs. And then today it's down to a 04:01 science. It's incredible that a new control room. Incredible. 04:05 Amazing. That's as good as any studio I've been in anywhere. 04:09 The new control room's amazing. 04:13 And you know, talk about technology, the reason that we 04:15 did this revamp is for the LEDs the panels, which is like a 04:18 giant television screen. You've seen them on the 3ABN 04:20 Worship Center for Camp Meeting, but also the control 04:23 room. We're getting set up for robotic cameras. And you may 04:26 say, well, why do want to go robotic? Well we need to be able 04:29 to do more programming and this allows us to do more programming 04:32 with less people and we can use the people who currently have 04:34 in another areas. So we're really excited about the.. So to 04:37 be clear with the robotic does not mean we're laying people 04:40 off. That's right. In means the same people who would be running 04:43 camera can now do something else within production, 04:46 which is a tremendous blessing. So praise the Lord. And instead 04:48 of running two studios simultaneously, maybe sometimes 04:50 we can do 3 so that'd be a huge blessing. 04:53 >> Yeah. Amen. So thank you for those who that is supported this 04:55 project as well. But we have the dedication this week and 04:58 praise the Lord for that. 04:59 >> Amen, coming around the table, Pastor John Lomacang 05:02 and we're missing beautiful Angie here tonight to we're all 05:05 and running solo, but glad that you're here. 05:07 >> Always good to be here. And to see just the time that 05:10 my wife and I've been here 19 years, just to see the changes 05:14 at 3ABN it's phenomenal. It's really a Ministry of Faith. 05:17 I like the fact...you know, so many companies 05:20 work with committees, committees, committees, 05:22 this one was based on faith Danny says, 05:25 you know, we need to expand the Call Center 05:26 it happened, God provides and it's been amazing to see 05:30 how many years now has 3ABN celebrated. Thirty-eight this 05:34 fall. It's going to be this fall 38, 37 years. 05:36 Almost as long as my wife and I've been married. 05:39 Yeah. And speaking of marriage, you and Angie have a 05:42 wedding anniversary here next week don't you. That's right. 05:45 We're going to be celebrating 39 years. Congratulations! That's 05:49 amazing. We don't look that old at all. No, you don't, Haha. 05:55 I like how he said that his with a look that old. 05:56 Gray hair is a sign of wisdom That's right, experience. 05:58 Yeah. We love each other and God has brought us a mighty long 06:02 way. And at the end of my resume, whenever people invite 06:04 me places always say I love the Lord. I love my wife and I 06:07 planned on spending eternity with both of them, that's good 06:10 so I'm in it for the long haul. Amen, absolutely. 06:14 >> And last but not least right next to me here is Shelley 06:17 Quinn. Love you and J D. 06:19 >> And JD's not here tonight with us either. But we're so glad 06:22 that you can be here. It's always a pleasure to be here 06:25 with all of that family and with you because we do consider 06:29 you part of the family. It's just amazing. I wish I wish 06:34 everybody could just could put cameras up and yell could 06:37 watch us up for a whole week. It's amazing what happens 06:41 around this place. It's just if you did a time-lapse on 06:46 something like that. People would just be dizzy? 06:49 >> But, it's fun. You know, it's really look at what the Lord is 06:52 doing, you know, because all of us are vessels, you know, the 06:55 3ABN, family, you're part of the 3ABN family making a 06:57 difference in the world and what a privilege we have to be 07:00 alive at this moment in Earth's history. Don't get discouraged 07:05 because God is using you and can continue to use you 07:08 wherever you are placed in this world, as Mr. Danny 07:11 always said, just look and see what God has given you in your 07:14 hands this very moment, right? It's always easy to look ahead 07:17 and say, well, and God gave this person talents as this 07:19 person, not me. What happened to me, you know, God has given 07:21 talents and there right there within your hand. So praise 07:24 the Lord for the times. I'm as busy as I've ever been, I'm just 07:28 not accomplishing that much. 07:30 No, you are accomplishing a lot. I'm a little slower on that end 07:33 but I'm still busy and all the time. 07:36 Just wanted to read this to you. You know, we get so much 07:38 correspondence. I want to say thank you for again, calling us 07:42 e- mailing us. We get messages through social media, sending us 07:45 letters through the Post office with a stamp. Thank you for 07:49 that. But I just want to read this to you just to encourage you. 07:52 This says I've been adopted as a Seventh-day Adventist for 07:57 3 to 4 years, I say adopted because that is exactly how 08:00 I feel. You all 3ABN have adopted me 08:03 into you, all's family and this love is what I wanted 08:07 for the past 40 years. I know it's not much in 08:10 the dollar amount, but I've enclosed is $2.61 as a gift 08:15 to be used anywhere as needed. I believe God can and will do 08:20 more than I ever could with this $2.61. 08:25 The name is Kevin. So thank you so very much. Made a difference 08:28 in Kevin's life. And you know what Kevin's doing? He's 08:30 turning around and actually blessing others as well. 08:33 God will take that $2.61. Absolutely that's beautiful. 08:38 Beautiful testimony. Amen! 08:39 >> And its letters like those and the phone calls and people 08:41 you meet when you travel, to make all this worth it 08:44 because I think a lot of times we could be working or doing 08:48 jobs or, you know, and you never know what happens. 08:51 But in ministry, you get to see this. All right. See some bad. 08:55 But you see the good and you see that people's lives are 08:58 changed. Yeah. And all because of you at home, you know, 09:02 joining with us. And that's to me has been the key when all of us 09:06 join hands together. We have the same goals, the same 09:09 mission. And that's to take the undiluted 3 Angels 09:12 messages. One counteract the counterfeit to all the world 09:15 and other words an end times message for an end-times people. 09:19 Jesus is coming soon. When we joined together mighty 09:23 marvelous things happen because we come in the name of Jesus 09:26 but I couldn't do it without you. So once again, thank you. 09:29 Because we're privileged to read those letters to meet some 09:34 of you in person. And some of your testimonies are incredible. 09:37 Incredible. And they really just encourage us to keep on. 09:40 Amen! Amen! 09:42 >> Amen. Tonight we want to start with a video, 09:44 this video comes from our Thompsonville Christian 09:47 School and we might get a little back story if you've 09:50 never heard that story of how the school began. We hear it on 09:52 the other side of the video just a few weeks ago. Our 09:56 school kids under the direction of Miss Evelyn Haney. She is 09:59 the principal here at our school, doing a wonderful job 10:02 with the students and with music. I have good memories of 10:06 working with the kids there with music. Um just a few 10:09 weeks ago on Sabbath we had what we call Education 10:12 Sabbath, where the young people put on the church service. 10:16 And one of the things they did is they played the short video 10:19 has to do with the little boy and John 3.16. That's all I'm 10:23 gonna tell you about it. But the school children are 10:26 narrating the story, precious, and they drew the pitchers that 10:30 you're going to see on this video. So let's go to this. 10:33 It's a powerful video and then we'll talk about. 10:38 >> In this city of Chicago the Cold Dark night, a blizzard 10:44 was setting in, a little boy was 10:47 selling newspapers on the corner. 10:53 The people were in and out of the cold. The little boy was so 11:00 cold that he wasn't trying to sell many papers. 11:05 He walked up to the policeman and said Mister, you wouldn't 11:09 happen know where a poor boy can find in a warm place to sleep 11:14 tonight. Would you? You see I sleep in a box up around the 11:20 corner there and down the alley and it's awfully cold in there for 11:27 tonight. Sure would be nice to have a warm place to stay. 11:34 the policeman looked down at the little boy and said 11:38 you go down the street and that big white house and knock on 11:41 the door 11:42 when they come out of the door, you just say John, 3.16, 11:45 and they will let you in. 11:48 So he did, he walked up the steps and knocked on the door. 11:54 and a lady answered he looked up and said John 3:16. 12:01 The lady said come on in son, she took him in and she sat him 12:06 in a splay bottom rocker in front of a great big 12:13 old fireplace and she went off the boy sat there for a while and 12:19 talked to himself. 12:20 John 3.16, I don't understand it but it sure makes a 12:29 cold boy warm. 12:32 Later she came back and asked him, are you hungry? 12:39 He said, well just a little, I haven't eaten in a couple of days 12:44 I guess I could stand a little bit of food. 12:48 The lady took him in the kitchen and sat him down to the 12:52 table full of wonderful food he ate and ate until he couldn't 12:57 eat any more. Then he thought to himself. John 3:16 boy I sure 13:02 don't understand it but it sure makes a hungry boy full. 13:08 She took him upstairs to a bathroom to a huge bathtub. 13:14 Filled with warm water and she sat there and soaked for a while. 13:21 As he thought to himself. 13:27 >> John 3:16. I sure don't understand it but it 13:35 sure does make a dirty boy clean. You know, I've not had a 13:41 real bath in my whole life. 13:44 The only bath I ever had was when I stood in front of that 13:49 bit old fire hydrant as they flushed it out. 13:56 The lady came in and got him. 14:00 >> She took him to a room tucked him into a big old feather bed 14:07 pulled the covers up around his neck, kissed him goodnight 14:11 and turned out the light. 14:15 As he laid in the darkness and looked out the window, 14:20 at the snow coming down and the cold night, he thought to himself 14:28 >> John, 3.16, I don't understand it but it sure 14:35 makes a tired boy rested. 14:40 >>The next morning, the lady came back up 14:44 and took him down to that same table of food. 14:50 After he ate, she took him in down again to that same big old 14:58 split bottom rocker in front of the fireplace and picked up 15:06 a big old Bible. 15:09 >> She sat down in front of him 15:14 and looked at his young face. 15:19 >> Do you understand John 3:16? 15:21 She asked gently, he replied, No ma'am 15:26 I don't, the first time I ever heard it was last night 15:31 night when the policeman told me to use it. 15:35 >> She opens Bible to John 3:16 and begin to explain to 15:40 him about Jesus 15:41 right there in front of that big old fireplace he gave 15:44 his heart and life to Jesus. He sat there and thought. 15:48 >> John 3:16, I don't understand it but it sure makes 15:52 a lost boy feel safe. 15:54 >> Amen! I love that. That's miss Jody's classroom 16:00 actually the lower grades, you can hear with the 16:03 little voices there. 16:04 >> You can Identify some of those voices. 16:06 Learning to read as well. 16:07 But what a powerful message and when that was played church. 16:10 We say we need to put that on the behind the scenes here 16:12 because you know what a powerful message. You bet. 16:15 To have a little boy in John 3.16. It says it all. It does. 16:19 It says it all. Yeah, we don't have. We don't understand it 16:22 either. That's right. Children saying they 16:24 >> done this little boy or child saying I don't 16:27 understand. We don't either, but we will someday. Amen. And 16:32 now we see through the glass darkly but then face to face, 16:35 We will understand God's love and His plan and how He could love, 16:40 you know, frail human agents like us is beyond any 16:44 love that I can know about. And that's why we need a savior. 16:47 It's beautiful the way that points out in the school there. 16:51 >> And the repetitious, lesson was, I don't know what it 16:54 means, but it makes me feel safe. It makes me feel warm. 16:58 fed, It makes me feel clean, It makes me feel fed. 17:00 And that's the purpose of it. You know, John, 3.16 is a 17:05 that whosoever believeth, whomever it is and you may not 17:09 understand it. 17:10 But remember, the lesson is indelible. It will change the 17:13 way you feel it will change your outlook on the world. 17:16 It will change our understanding of Christ and the 17:18 empty places in your life. As he said, sure does feel good 17:21 to be filled and to be clean and to be tucked into and 17:24 accepted by Christ. That's the message from John 3.16. 17:28 So pray for our school, Thompsonville Christian School. 17:32 You know, if you come down to Thompsonville, I'm going to 17:34 let's have Danny Start with, You know, we have the school that 17:36 popped up out of an act of faith when the money was. 17:40 >> Well, all that money that came in the start of school. 17:43 Talk about that big old gigantic wad of money that we got 17:47 Yeah, I'm not knowing about all of that money, but I do 17:50 know about some of it coming in. No, what happened is 17:53 what it was like Sabbath morning about 4:00 am I woke up 17:58 and I just kind of set up in bed and I felt 18:02 I had this impression, we need to build a church school and I 18:07 just refused I said no, we're we're building this, we're 18:11 building that, we're trying to, we just got a new church 18:13 going, we're studios we're in to television, we're not. 18:17 into, education and the least this, you know, 18:22 the elementary education. And so I just no, we can't 18:25 do that. And so I lay down and could not go back to sleep. 18:29 I was literally awake for 4 hours, I'd get up and lay back 18:33 down and you should build a, a school church school. 18:37 So I came to church, spent the day with the church, that evening 18:42 at a church board meeting as pastor will tell you, I don't 18:46 go to those too often tried to stay away, especially if I'm you 18:50 know, in a position here at 3ABN, I don't want to, you 18:53 know, seem like, oh, you're trying to tell people what to 18:56 do there. So I purposely stay away. But it was a have 18:59 vespers. And so somebody so just stick around. We have a 19:03 little meeting with after Sabbath. And I think it was Dee 19:06 Hildebrandt's that we only have 3 quick items. We want to 19:09 discuss a like number 2 was. Well, it's very small, but we 19:14 have to do to somebody we don't know why somebody donated one 19:17 dollar for a church school. So we just need somebody to 19:21 make a motion that we send that to Marion because Marion has a 19:25 church school and 30 miles away so let's send it there. And I'll 19:28 never forget Ron Hogue, wonderful former Pentecost 19:33 that used watch 3ABN and end up coming the church and joining our 19:36 church. And so I was sitting there everything inside of 19:40 of me saying we shouldn't do that because you know that, I 19:44 haven't been impressed yet all morning all day, but I'm not 19:47 going to say anything. I said I'm sitting there so Ron Hogue 19:50 said just a second Sister Dee. He goes if somebody impressed 19:55 this, those of you know him, he's a straight forward guy. 19:59 was impressed to give us one dollar to church school, maybe 20:02 we're supposed to have a church school. Yeah. And you know, 20:05 then people kind of start laugh- ing and you know what have you? 20:08 So I so what can we like? 20:10 And I'm paraphrasing can we kind of table this, maybe talk 20:12 about it. You know, maybe we should. And so they said, 20:16 OK, we'll just table that for now. And so literally that very 20:21 week to see this coming week, there's man who had been by 20:24 here and actually brought quite a bit of silver and a motor 20:27 home and said, well, the he wanted us to have this money 20:31 lived in Tennessee and lived up on a mountaintop with no power 20:35 and found out later the literally was up on top and his 20:39 brother and they had built like a pole barn and they had little 20:42 tiny now motor homes. And sold the big one, his wife had 20:46 passed away. So he's up there living without electricity. 20:50 And of course, no cell phones and money heavy back then. 20:54 But he's up there because he said, I don't this all I wanted 20:58 to do, my wife died. I just want to be out by myself. 21:04 A few days later after the Sabbath, the mail comes along 21:08 and somebody said, oh, here's a check for Mister and they gave 21:11 me his name from Tennessee. 21:13 Remember us in this what he wrote this check 21:16 for us. And I said, well, great. 21:17 >> Opened it up, $75,000 oh my, And I said $75,000. 21:23 Here's a guy living without electricity and power, but he 21:27 wanted it. So he wrote a little note 21:29 and he said I wanted to send this money. My wife died in 21:33 this money was hers. You can do whatever you want to do with 21:37 it, but her special desire. And of course, I know you don't 21:42 have one, but she was a school teacher would love for it to go 21:45 to a school but since you don't have a school, just use it for 21:48 whatever you want. And so I said, OK, that's it. So I 21:52 called one of the builders in the area and I just wanted a 21:56 way we do things around here is one bite at a time. 21:58 Yeah, you know, because you don't just take on a huge 22:00 project if it's a million bucks because that'd discourage 22:03 everybody. So we just said, okay, how do we do it? Let's do 22:06 one bite at a time. So to shell up, I drew up the plans for a 22:10 gymnasium and school that would do up to 8th grade. And so back 22:14 then now this is 20 plus 23 years or so ago back then. I said I 22:19 just want a shell. That means put up to the walls, put up the 22:23 roof on it, put in the windows, put in the doors. We'll 22:26 finish the inside. Let's just get the outside. So I have this 22:30 builder gives me a bid literally that same week 22:33 and so the bid was something like 77,000. I don't remember 22:37 the exact figures but it was like 77,000 or so. So I called him 22:43 and I said I've got your bid but I said you're a 22:47 little bit high. And he said a little bit high. He said now, 22:51 how do you know that? And I said, well, because I said is 22:54 supposed to be 75,000. And he said, well, why would you say 22:58 that? Well, I'll tell you what, you're a Christian. Yeah. I said 23:02 you believe God supplies all of your needs or part of your need? 23:05 He said well He supplies all the needs. So guess what when I 23:09 first called you to, in fact, I actually called him before I 23:13 got a bid. I forgot about that part. I actually 23:16 called him because this came like on Monday. Before the check came? 23:19 Yeah before the check came and I had forgotten about that. 23:21 But I thought, well, we'll just go ahead and 23:24 just figure because once that 23:26 Ron Hogue said maybe we're supposed to have and there was 23:28 that one dollar. How are you going to get out of that, right? 23:32 So okay Lord, if you want us you supply the needs. 23:35 So he gave me the bids. 23:36 So when I told him, I said when I first ask you to bid 23:39 this the other day, I didn't have any money 23:42 to put towards it but today I got 75,000. So that tells me 23:47 that says God supplies all your needs and you're a couple 23:50 thousand dollars high so if you'll do it for 75, 23:53 we've got a deal. He said let's do it. 23:55 Wow. That's how it started. Yeah, we never went on 23:57 the air and ask people to help us build a church school. 24:01 Well, as I said, we're into television. We're not doing 24:04 that. I'm not going to go to the donors for this. But a 24:07 couple weeks later, somebody came by when they were start, 24:09 building. And what is this? They said, well, we're building a 24:12 church school. That's great, wrote a check for 25,000. 24:15 Somebody came the very next week 24:17 and said what are you doing over here we said 24:19 well, we're building a church school 10,000 and the money 24:21 continued to come in, 425,000 I think, which is a lot of money 24:25 that time for the school to get it all finished and all that 24:29 and when it was when it was done, 24:31 it was paid for. Amen. Praise the Lord. And for years 24:34 we used that as camp meeting as well in the gymnasium We use it 24:36 now outdoor use, everybody. Yes, yeah. They feed everybody. 24:40 We had it at camp meeting and we used it to feed all the folk 24:43 at camp meeting and we still use it. 24:45 for that and it's been a school for 20-plus years. 24:48 It sure has. Since 99. Yeah. And then, of course, we come 24:52 Joe, Nancy O'Brien. We didn't have a teacher, by faith we 24:56 forward and then found out these folk who had been former 24:59 Catholics have become have become Seventh-day Adventist. 25:02 And so I'm not sure the contact, but it wasn't about a 25:05 school where he came looking for a job. We found out that 25:08 his wife was a schoolteacher. You know, so there you go. 25:12 God supplied it, was just in the nick of time. That's right. 25:16 And talking about camp meeting and all of that and 25:19 talking about... 25:20 >> When you mentioned just the nick of time, that's going to 25:22 be your camp meeting sermon coming up, yes, you know the 25:24 title so talk to us Shelley about camp meeting this coming 25:27 because that's just around the corner. I know everyone 25:29 looks forward to camp meeting. 25:31 >> It's not even 2 weeks away is going to be 25:35 a glorious time. That's what I'll say. Our overarching theme 25:41 for camp meeting this year is Focus on God and It begins 25:46 Tuesday, May the 31st and it goes through 25:50 Sabbath June the 4th. And so let me just kind of give you 25:55 first of all, here are our guest speakers, Mark Finley, 25:58 David Shinn, CA Murray, Christopher Hudson, Jay Gallimore 26:03 and Cami Oetman. And then we have John Lomacang, 26:09 Jill Morricone, James Rafferty, Kenny Shelton, Ryan Day, 26:14 Shelley Quinn and Danny is going to do our Divine Worship. 26:19 But it begins. And I want to draw on you before I tell the 26:23 schedule, we start Tuesday night 26:27 through Friday night and starts every night at 6 o'clock. 26:31 With an hour of music and boy, have we got some music tell us 26:36 about the music. We're so blessed I mean, to work with 26:40 people that we work with, people who love Jesus, 26:43 Christian men and have have talent. And some of us is 26:46 almost unbelievable, Tim Parton to begin with our own Tim Parton 26:50 partner. And we build a lot of this around him because he's 26:54 such a great piano player keyboard. But, you know, 26:57 we have, of course, our own, you know, John and Ryan and, 27:02 Ms. Yvonne, you know, and you start with Celestine, my daughter 27:06 Melody. And so we have a number of people here. But then 27:10 we bring in Reggie and Lady Love Smith. This year we're 27:13 going to have Lanny Wolfe Trio. Lanny Wolfe's my favorite. And I 27:17 don't mind said my favorite, gospel song writer of all 27:20 time. Surely the Presence of the Lord Is In This Place, 27:24 Whatever it Takes For My Will to Break, That's What I'll be 27:26 Willing To Do. Well, you know, More Than Wonderful first came 27:31 by Sandy Patti and Lionel, Harrison so it goes on and 27:35 on incredible, so he's coming with the Marita. 27:39 And so we look forward to that. And so we have a number of 27:43 folk that are coming in Chris Wilkinson and Larry Pax 27:47 and her husband. 27:48 They are arrangers, I've worked with him for 40 years. This 27:52 year makes 40 years. 1982, in the fall Melody 27:56 made her first little little record and her mother 28:00 had been killed, her mother was killed in an automobile 28:02 accident, Melody was with her. That was 6/30/1982, by October 28:07 we had before that determined we're going to continue to go 28:11 continue to sing, you know, she was only 11 years old at 28:15 the time, so Dr. Berks who was a 7th-day Adventist owned a studio 28:19 in Nashville. So we went down, met Bobby Bradley, I said, 28:23 look, we're new at this we need help so I need to 28:27 string arranger but I need need somebody very reasonable. 28:30 Yeah. He said there is a young lady in town she's incredible. 28:33 She's going to be one of these days priced out of range, 28:37 which I'm sure she would work. And so that was Chris Wilkinson 28:40 well now she does Hollywood movies and scores I mean 28:45 incredible scores. But we've been working together for 40 years. 28:48 She and Larry and bringing some strings, the orchestra with 28:51 them and I mean it just it... I look forward to because there's 28:56 always an anointing. Billy Blackwood is going to be here 28:59 Oh, amen. And Billy it just when you're when you're around, 29:02 Billy, he's always talking about the Lord I've been with 29:06 them. Many times and we spent hours and hours and he and his wife 29:09 Cherry, so great friends and good to be with. So they're 29:12 going to be Shelley a lot of talent. But I can tell you 29:16 already the Holy Spirit will be here because when these folks 29:20 get together and everybody's given honor and glory and 29:23 praise and wants the First Angels Message, fear God, and give 29:26 glory to Him for the hour of His judgment has come so 29:30 worship Him. And so when you begin the camp meetings 29:34 and praise and worship something Good's going to 29:36 happen. Amen, amen. And I just want to make sure that you 29:40 understand that this is a Virtual Camp Meeting, we will not 29:44 have a live audience and that's why we're starting Tuesday 29:48 night. But this is central time each night 29:52 Tuesday through Friday it starts at 6:00 PM. 29:55 Let me run through this real quick. The music's the first 29:58 hour every night. Music first hour at 6:00 pm, and then we 30:03 have two sermons each evening. We've got the personality of 30:06 our Heavenly Father by Pastor David Shin, Ryan Day will be 30:11 doing The Power of God, on Wednesday another beautiful 30:16 hour of music at 06:00 PM followed by The Paradise of God 30:21 by James Rafferty and God's Plan of Salvation, Jay Gallimore. 30:26 Thursday, 6:00 PM that beautiful music. 30:31 >> And with big Jay McDonald to he's the bass singer with 30:34 the Gathers and they're incredible boys. 30:37 >> And you know what? To me, what I love about the music is 30:42 that's what plows up the hard ground at the heart so that you 30:46 can receive the seed of the word. 30:49 So then Thursday night is God the Promise Maker and Keeper 30:55 that's pastor Mark Finley. 30:57 Then God our Provider and Protector CA Murray, he's back 31:02 for that. And then Friday night, another beautiful hour 31:06 of music. God Our Peace. Kenny Shelton, The Presence of God 31:11 I'll be presenting. 31:12 And then Sabbath we have are Sabbath School Panel. 31:16 Danny, I love your title for divine worship Just in the Nick 31:21 of Time. It's a great title. Well, it's a great title he's 31:26 lived it. We've seen it. It's constant that God "He's never 31:30 late". It's always just in the nick of time. But so often he 31:35 keeps us waiting on our toes our toes with bated breath. 31:40 It's a test of faith, isn't it? But then that, here it 31:45 is Just in the Nick of Time and then at 2:00 PM, we have Jill 31:51 will be doing God's Passion for Righteousness. Then Cami Oetman 31:56 met with AWR will be doing the Patience of God at 3:00 32:01 at 6:00 pm is God's Sure Word of Prophecy, Christopher Hudson, 32:08 God, the Perfector of our Faith by John Lomacang. 32:13 And John, you're closing out, can't end with a better 32:17 sermon than The Perfector of Our Faith. So we encourage you 32:22 to mark this on your calendar May 31st through June the 4th. 32:27 And if you can't be there at home, these are all 32:33 central time. 32:35 Boy, get your recorder and this is going to be something 32:39 to draw you into a more intimate 32:43 relationship with our Lord. 32:45 And that's what it's all about. That's right. 32:48 >> Or go to 3ABN+, go to 3ABN and you can watch 32:52 it any time on demand and as soon as the program airs, 32:55 it will be available there. And that's wonderful. And then 32:58 we post it later to YouTube. Pr. John can you give us a sneak 33:01 peek for what you're message is going to be on. I know 33:03 Shelley gave us the title. But what's the content of that? 33:06 >> Well, the nutshell of it, is whatever God begins, He could 33:09 finish. He is the author and finisher of our 33:13 Faith, but not just the author and finisher for those who 33:16 believe and a lot of times people look at how things are 33:19 headed and where the world is going. And it brings a lot of 33:22 interpretation and fear in the minds of people. So I'm going to 33:25 focus on the intervals in where our faith, this challenged and 33:28 how God brings us through those challenges. And then the 33:32 assurance with Philippians 1:6, He who has begun a good work will 33:37 complete it. We're so excited about what the future holds, 33:41 because it's not what the future holds, but it's who holds the 33:44 future and we look at the world. And Danny, we talk about this 33:48 quite a bit. We look at the instability of our world around 33:50 us. And it brings even to the Christian world, a lot of 33:53 questions. What's going to happen? What's going to happen? 33:55 morally in our world. We're seeing the world tank morally 33:58 What's happening spiritually? confusion is increasing in the 34:01 spiritual world. More reasons not to obey the Word of God than 34:04 to obey the Word of God. How is it going to end? Well, 34:08 if you believe God and you believe in His word, He is not 34:11 only the author but the finisher of our faith. And so the perfector 34:16 of our faith and that is something that I'm 34:19 encouraging you to tune in when you talked about Just in the 34:22 Nick of Time, So many stories came to my mind to make this 34:25 make this quick left turn because I was here 34:27 when the Sound Center was being built. Wow, I had not moved 34:30 here yet, but I remember I drove up and I was recording here 34:33 I was invited to sing, I was staying at the house 34:35 where we are living now. Wow. And I remember they had like a 34:40 heavy equipment bringing in the new sound board for the 34:43 Sound Center are is out there holding the sides, I'm not even 34:46 an employee here yet, but it's that hold that side, hold this 34:49 side and Danny was bringing the board in and they're trying to 34:51 fit in. And then he got a phone call from lady that said 34:54 do you have any needs? So the just in the nick of time and 34:57 Danny, no, not really. And she said, what are you? Sure? 35:01 And she kept prying until he say what? We just got a mixing 35:03 board. She said how much? And 35:05 just in the nick of time she sent the member that. 35:07 >> Yeah, because we had too we'd work 14 months on the 35:11 studio. And so Bobby Bradley had been I said design it the 35:15 way he was a professional engineer from Nashville Uncle 35:19 Owen Bradley Owen Bradley, who you very well statue of him in 35:24 downtown in Nashville, Bobby had worked with him for years. 35:28 So he said we had a sound board that was a cheaper one and so 35:33 Bobby said everything is great, but we don't have the right, 35:37 Soundboard we really need. And there's one is from England 35:40 they just flew it over there's only three in America. 35:43 This thing is great, it's $150,000, I said 150 because 35:47 we've spent $20,000 on ours. Yeah. 35:49 He said, but in Nashville and they know who he is. He said to 35:52 get him here in America. They'll let's have it for 100,000 35:55 cash. But he said our guys are coming in from Nashville, 35:58 the engineers to put it all together. You know, tomorrow 36:01 they can bring it up and I knew I said and we may not have 36:06 $100,000. I remember telling the accountant which sometimes 36:10 gets their/pumps their blood pressure up so I told Bobby 36:13 what do you got to do? He said just overnight him a check, 36:16 you know, and I said, you know what? We're going to 36:19 do it by faith. Somehow the money in the morning. Some out 36:22 this will be covered. So we wired to $100,000 and literally 36:27 that afternoon after we wired it that afternoon, I get a call 36:32 from a lady in Oregon...out... just... I think it's Ashland or 36:36 one of those close to... 36:39 I don't get it. I just don't remember the town that is out 36:41 in Oregon. And so Rogue River may be in that area. So she 36:45 called and she was 97 years old. She said I'm so sorry. 36:48 I'm not going to be on make it to camp meeting. Well, of course, 36:51 I wouldn't know and I try to take calls when we can from 36:54 people whether you know them but this lady, she wanted to 36:57 talk to you really bad. And I said, oh, I'm sorry to hear 36:59 that we love for you to come. And I didn't really know her but 37:02 she watches 3 ABN and she's sister in the Lord. She said I'm 37:07 97 years old and I hurt my...I think it was her leg and I can't 37:11 really walk and get around. But the Lord impressed me to give 37:14 you something. She said, so what are some of your needs? 37:17 rather and come I'll just spend, you know, spend money on 37:20 flying? What have you know? I'll give you a love gift. 37:22 I said, well, OK, I said, you know what, whatever you want. 37:25 She said, well, what are some of your needs? 37:28 And so do you have any big need she said? 37:31 Well, I'm standing in where this thing is going to be 37:35 And I'm talking to her on the phone. And so I 37:39 couldn't make myself say, yeah, we need $100,000 right away 37:43 because she's 97 years old and she's...Her health apparently 37:46 she's got a bad leg. And what have you some not to take 37:49 advantage of her. So I said, well, tell you what you pray 37:52 about it. I said the Lord will the Lord will impress you. 37:54 She said, well, I ask a specific question. she said, 37:58 do you have any big needs, Sonny right now? Well, when you say big 38:02 need. My 100 might be a lot to her $500 or $20 or... So how do 38:07 you tell somebody have no idea who they are? So I said, 38:10 well, honestly, I said we do right now said I'm standing in 38:14 the sound centers recording studio and I said we've ordered 38:17 some equipment by faith. It's going to be $100,000 and 38:21 she said, oh, $100,000. What is it? There's no use in me 38:25 explaining that to you because you won't understand, because 38:28 I don't even understand all about it and I'm in the business. 38:32 And so she said, oh, well, well, well, how soon you 38:35 need it? I said well we're... They're going to 38:39 install it tomorrow and they're 38:41 going to bring up. And she said, well, we're 2 hours 38:43 behind you here. But what time she said, my daughters here she 38:47 could. Could you wire that money to them? She so we can get you 38:50 that money...And they did. Yeah. Haha. I'm not even using that 38:55 In the nick of time story and sermon there 38:57 There's so many others in the 38:59 you can do. But the nick of time it for me is in the 39:04 highlight would be, you know, when Jesus was 4 days late, 39:07 he was still on time. Yeah, that's right. So it's who are 39:10 we to Judge God, where? Well, where was God when my 39:13 wife died, my husband died, I had these kidney stones which 39:17 have had, you know, they're well, where is God? You know, 39:20 we're judging God, no. He's our creator. We need 39:23 to get things in the right perspective. We're the ones out 39:26 in left field. Not God He's always here, He's here 39:30 to bless us. But we have to look into the spiritual instead 39:32 of living everything in the physical and feelings. So just 39:36 shall live by faith. 39:38 >> And that just came to my mind. It was because I had I 39:41 hadn't even moved here yet. Wasn't even thinking about being 39:44 here and I remember that phone call when it came in and 39:46 pulled over to the side But that's inspiring 39:49 in the past time and time again. Yeah, almost 38 years. 39:53 Time and time again He's never failed Yeah. I think we should 39:56 mention also the theme for Camp Meeting. Yes, 40:01 Which is Focus on God, Focus on God which talked, which really 40:05 is what you started I think was the anniversary program last 40:08 year during the program recording and Jill kept saying Look at 40:11 Got Wow, Look at God and Look at God and the theme for 40:15 Camp Meeting is based off of that. As we're talking about these 40:18 miracles and just the nick of time, it's really looking to 40:20 God, right? He's the one the supplies are needs. He's the 40:23 one that we need to put our faith and trust. And even in 40:26 these times we're living in focus on God. So thank you so 40:29 very much Shelley. I think you're the one that said, we 40:31 should do a Camp Meeting based off of the 3ABN theme for this year. 40:34 It was during our day of prayer. 40:37 That's right. They were talking about that 40:39 just suddenly the Lord just gave me 12 sermons titles. 40:41 Yes. And I said, hey, I think this is it's for 40:45 Camp Meeting. Yeah. But you know what I know 40:48 when we have a camp meeting generally speaking. 40:53 What we will do. Is I list out all these titles with this type 40:57 of theme to camp meeting and then I send it out to everybody 41:02 and say, hey, it's kind of first come first serve 41:04 similarly whatever choice she would like 41:08 and maybe give me an alternative or two, because 41:12 everybody's going to be, you know, calling in 41:15 each person. I think you're the only person I just took what 41:20 was left over. 41:21 You had a second choice. Every other speaker got their 41:25 first choice. I've never experienced anything like that 41:30 where they say I want this one with this. 41:33 Usually, everybody's kind of clamoring over. There's a lot 41:37 of overlap and so to me, I felt like God really brought 41:43 in the...It was exciting 41:45 because from the time we started till the time it... 41:49 God had the whole thing planned out in less than 12 hours. 41:53 Yes, I mean, we had everybody all the speakers worked out, 41:57 never been through anything like that. Praise the Lord. 42:00 >>And I remember choosing that other one because he 42:02 was one other guest speaker that didn't pick... I said, 42:05 we'll just in case he picks this one. I'll Take the other one 42:08 if in fact, that was the case. It's amazing How God works it out 42:12 And this was one of the quickest ways that it came together. 42:14 >> Oh, absolutely. It's 42:17 I believe it's going to bring God a lot of Glory and has a lot 42:21 of hope. 42:22 >> And so mark your calendars, May 31 through, June 4th, 42:27 we want to see you. We want to connect with you as part of our 42:31 3ABN family. Virtual. Speaking of you, thank you, Virtual 42:35 Camp Meeting. So watch from home. Make sure you do that. 42:38 Or on your cell phones or on Roku or Amazon Fire, or Apple TV. 42:45 Any one of those avenues Dish network? It could be a 42:48 cable company. Any one of those avenues. 42:50 >> Could you actually mention that before we go to GC this is 42:52 talking about the different avenues. Now. Hopefully, I can 42:55 explain this correctly when I sometimes get deep in the weeds 42:57 as they say. So they talk about hits, right? So that would be 43:01 hits is and how many people click on the let's say the 43:04 phone on our live streams like you're watching 3ABN right 43:07 now. Excuse me, Greg, would it be okay If tell everybody, 43:09 put your seat belt on first? I was getting ready to tell you 43:13 you better put your seat belt on so He don't fall out of 43:16 your car. Incredible, isn't it? So this isn't... 43:18 the number I'm getting ready to share with you, let me 43:20 just share with you. Now we average 2.1 billion 43:24 hits per month. Now I said billion not... Billion. Billon. 43:27 Now I said B, as in billion with a B Shelley just grab her... 43:32 You need to put a seat belt on. What! Let me just explain this 43:36 so this would be just.., relax a little, sorry I'm 43:39 I know. I had no idea... 2.1 billion. This is not 43:44 the B John. Yeah, that's it. So yeah...Indistinguishable 43:47 chatter...Glory to God, that's a two-hander. 43:51 So this number is going like this 43:52 and how does that happen? You're going to tell us all 43:55 that and we'll be quite let you tell us. It is amazing 43:58 because when we look at the analytics were like, wait, 44:00 wait, is this right? So we did some research. And yes, that is 44:03 correct. 44:05 >> So 2.1 billion is the average some months. We've 44:07 actually had 3 and4 billion hits on our live stream. Now, 44:11 let me explain this. So that would be like on your phone 44:14 tablet or computer. That would be if you're watching 3ABN, 44:17 this would be not clicking on a recipe of clicking on 3 of his 44:20 website. That is on a 3ABN's live stream. We average 2.1 44:25 billion, now and this is not even on-demand portion and, 44:28 yeah, you can watch 3ABN on demand, this is not on-demand, 44:31 this is not Dish Network. Is not Dish Network, it's not cable. 44:35 If you are watching on cable, it's not a Verizon. It's not on 44:38 Verizon FiOS, it's not on G-19. didn't I tell you John's just 44:42 now breathing. Take another breath John. So Pr. John, 44:45 when you think about this Pr. John, 44:47 that's not on G-19. That's not on Dish Network, 44:48 that's not on the cable stations that are not on the 44:50 downlinks. That's just on like the phone Live streaming 44:53 the computer, Live Stream. It just can't stumble onto it. 44:57 Correct. You have to go and click on it. 44:59 May I say this? Can we just stop and 45:03 say a little prayer. Praise God that's amazing to think of what 45:07 God is...It is. And you know, the thing is these are people I 45:10 know. People that are out there. I know, how precious. Yeah, 45:14 you know who you are. Well, that makes me so happy. 45:17 Shelley, why don't you pray? Okay. Haha, 45:19 Our loving heavenly father, We've come before you to give 45:23 you praise to give you honor, to give you glory. Lord, 45:27 we've always said that You said we haven't seen anything 45:32 yet. It is amazing to me, Lord what you are doing and how 45:38 you are leading people to tune in to get this 45:42 undiluted message. We give you all the praise we give you all 45:47 the glory Lord. We've Father, Oh, what a privilege, how we 45:52 thank you for the opportunity to play a small part in this 45:56 and how we thank you, Lord that our 3ABN family at home 46:00 has joined in and helped make this possible 46:05 together Father. We know your harvest 46:08 fields are white. They're ripe, there ready. And you'll 46:13 soon be thrusting in the sickle for the harvest. 46:17 So let this word, let us live 46:21 Jesus high that Lord you may draw all unto 46:26 yourself. We give you all the honor and all the glory... 46:29 Hallelujah. Thank you, Father, and what a joy. 46:32 >> Amen. Can I make a comment? Yeah. Look at...Boy, that's just 46:39 sitting there Shelley as your friend, wishing...I thought 46:42 wouldn't it be wonderful if Molly Sue... 46:44 Oh yeah. Amen! to hear this 46:46 because Molly would say to me, 46:48 I would go the camp meetings and stuff and I'd say millions 46:51 of people potentially hundreds of millions and she would say 46:55 Mr. Shelton with the motherly voice rather than just, 46:58 you know, Mr. Shelton. 47:00 We have we're told by engineers potentially 47:03 2 billion people could watch. I said I'm not going on the air 47:07 and tell people 2 billion people can get us. I mean, 47:10 I know they can if you look at all these, but the we're not 47:14 getting those kind of hits, so I don't want to confuse people be 47:17 to evangelistic, I'm just telling you to tell the truth. 47:20 When you say potentially hundreds of million, she said 47:23 it's well over a billion and some say as much as 2. And now 47:27 what little faith from me because you're not saying potentially. 47:31 You're saying that's how many viewers how many hits. Yeah, 47:36 people have had to come in a month. Yeah. Glory to God. 47:40 The one with the big B, not an M but a B as in boy as in billion. 47:44 And you know, we don't know in a month, we're not talking about 47:47 last year. Correct? This month. 47:49 >> Yeah, yeah. I knew one month was over 4 Billion. Oh my. 47:52 That seems... so already this month.. it averages to the 2.100 47:56 billion. 47:57 >> You know, and you and you know, these are people 47:58 clicking. We don't know how we can kind of see how long people 48:01 are some pretty deep analytics to being really go deep into 48:03 the weeds in some of this stuff. But we can see that the 48:05 time that people are watching, some can click watch for one 48:08 One second and they're done. But we're seeing the time the people 48:10 watching actually is increasing tremendously we are seeing 48:12 this also on YouTube, which is a totally different number that 48:15 was a totally different number. We're seeing increase. What 48:17 that tells us that there are people that are searching 48:20 looking for truth and around the world. This is around the 48:23 world and their people that are actually sharing this because 48:25 of all the links we can just quicken copy and paste to share 48:27 the link and give it to somebody else that's 48:29 increasing. So the exposure for 3ABN, it's just 48:32 >> exponentially growing. Yeah. You know, when you when 48:35 you think about this God is going to finish the work. 48:39 Yeah, we are so privileged. Thank you so much. Joining 48:44 hands with us to do is we're so privileged to play our small 48:48 part in this. But 48:51 you think about how quickly He could finish this work. The 48:56 technology sometimes we see here. Isn't it awful 49:00 goes on the Internet? Yeah, but isn't it wonderful 49:03 how God can use something like this for His glory? 49:10 I've known John since old Shep was a pup 49:11 and that's the most shocked I've seen him, 49:13 How bad you say his jaw dropped. 49:15 Haha. then he leaned. Shelley almost fell out of her chair. 49:18 that's why I said buckle up. Yeah. Buckle up. But we can't 49:22 I'm glad you said buckle up. That is amazing. It is amazing. 49:27 >> This one is Volume 5, Ellen White talks about... 49:30 She says God in the 49:32 last days will take the reign into his own hand. There you go. 49:33 Which is completely contrary to any human planning and how 49:37 He'll cut it short in righteousness. And that's 49:41 beautiful. I mean, that's just once again to reiterate, 49:44 not YouTube, not the regular networks, that this is just not 49:48 Dish Network, not Comcast Cable. Not downlinks, 49:52 not Roku box, which is millions, we did include ROKU 49:56 OK? So, just... Glory to God. Yeah! 50:02 In your live stream And it's not any the on-demand 50:04 it's the live stream. So it would be the live stream on the 50:06 apps to live stream on the website. The live stream on the 50:08 ROKU. Apple TV. That's unbelievable. Amazing. 50:14 >> Glory to... Praise God. Look at God... 50:17 Amen. Thank you for joining hands with the ministry of 3ABN. 50:20 Each person has iterated here tonight. We're just so 50:23 grateful that together we can help spread this undiluted 50:28 3 Angels messages to the world. 50:30 Next. We're talking about Camp Meeting which is May 50:34 31 through June 4th, the following week we go 50:38 to the General Conference session, 50:40 which is every 5 years, it was supposed 50:44 to have taken place a couple of years ago. But because of 50:47 COVID, it's been postponed. But every 5 years there is a 50:52 general conference session. This is for the 7th Day 50:54 Adventist Church. The World Church comes together and has a 50:58 business session and discusses and votes on officers and 51:03 different things pertaining to the church. There would be 51:05 evening meetings and 3ABN will be carrying. We will be 51:09 broadcasting carrying the stream for the evening 51:12 meetings. 51:14 So that starts. I have the schedule here that starts 51:18 Monday. June 6, we broadcast Monday, June 6, all the way 51:22 through Sabbath June 11. It begins Monday night and it's 51:26 actually kind of later in the evening, starting at 8:00 PM 51:29 Central will be having a... Pastor John's going to be there 51:32 you and Angie and Mr. Danny, you'll be there. You and Doctor 51:34 Yvonne. Greg and I'll be there, some others from 51:37 3ABN. So we'll be getting stories from what happened 51:40 during the day will be featuring what's going on in 51:44 the World Church. So every night we're going to have a 51:47 live broadcast from the convention there. This will be 51:50 held in St. Louis downtown there in the convention center. 51:54 So every night we'll be doing that live broadcast at 8:00 PM 51:57 Central for 45 minutes. And then we go right to the live 52:02 feed there from the General Conference. The main stage will 52:04 be broadcasting bringing you the evening devotionals every 52:08 night. And then we'll come back to us in the studio with a 52:11 wrap-up. So that goes on every night, Monday night, Tuesday 52:14 night, Wednesday, Thursday. Friday night is a special two 52:17 hour special from the main stage and then Sabbath Morning 52:20 Sabbath School and Church. So 3ABN will be bringing you 52:24 the Live productions from there. We are excited about the 52:27 opportunity to partner with the 7th Day Adventist Church and be 52:31 able to bring you that live feed. In addition, we're also 52:35 on 3ABN +. Now, this will not be broadcast on the regular 52:38 television. You have to go to 3ABN + on the either online 52:43 on your phone, Roku, on Roku and Amazon Fire on Apple TV. 52:49 We will be broadcasting the live stream every morning, let 52:53 me find what's on 3ABN Plus it's a devotional 52:55 worship. The devotional worships every morning. So you 52:58 can watch those on 3ABN +, there will be a special 53:01 button that's just special for the GC Session. So if you want 53:04 that, that would be every morning and all day on Friday, 53:08 there will be division reports from the world divisions of the 53:11 7th Day Adventist Church. And that will be broadcast 53:14 on 3ABN + as well. So this is the week after camp 53:17 meeting. So we have our campaigning and tough following 53:20 week. We jump right into them. Looking will be broadcast. 53:23 >> I think you mentioned real quickly, but I want to 53:24 reiterate for those of you that have a phone. We talked about 53:27 this. If you have an Apple or an Android, you can go to the 53:30 play store to the Apple store and download 3ABN + 53:33 app. That's right. And there you could have. That's where a 53:36 lot of the on-demand and that's where General conference 53:39 sessions are going to be seen. That's correct. And so it's 53:41 amazingly whenever I meet people, whenever my wife and I go 53:45 anywhere, we always say to the audience who whether it is for 53:48 3ABN just us going, 53:50 we say to them at the main service taking phones out which 53:53 a lot of people say put your phones away, 53:55 take your phones out. 53:56 Yeah, that's good. Let's go to the Apple Store, the Play Store 53:58 So we put on the screen the links and just click on that. 54:01 Download the app. Now, you are officially a part of 3ABN, 54:03 Amen! yeah, great that Amen tone just recently that 54:07 everybody in the audience is that is it that simple? How 54:10 much is going to cost per month? 54:11 It doesn't cost, it's free. For free, 54:13 free of charge. So a lot of great programming. 54:16 >> What an amazing thing, that's on-demand per on-demand. So, 54:19 you know, and I watch anything from the past or recent nine 54:24 networks...that's wonderful nine networks. And after the program 54:27 I think you have to give John and Shelley 54:29 the dates again camp meeting because 54:32 they were both still glassy-eyed over and Shelley was still 54:36 Yeah. Over off-camera says like it's out like a billion to be 54:41 so their mind. They didn't get all that they would glass over. 54:44 But if you give they'll give you the dates again Shelley. 54:46 You know? Yeah, they will. Haha. 54:48 >> Yeah. And it's made and we also have and the virtual booth 54:52 that will be taking place. So we will be doing the 54:54 production and broadcasting. This is June 6 to 11, but we 54:58 also have the virtual booth. So you can see the lower 3rd 55:01 right now, it's exhibithall. GC session.org. So if you 55:07 go to this Website. No this is the Virtual Booth, 55:11 meaning, you can visit 3 ABN at the booth but it's on 55:16 line. This is a new day when you have to. Yeah. And that for 55:20 people like myself like all that's going to be at the 55:23 Yankees and now there's no booth at the GC Session. 55:25 The General Conference session in St. Louis. There's no booth 55:28 but they will be done virtually which means you go to that 55:32 website, exhibithall. GCsession.org. You have to 55:37 register, but it's free to register and you can visit all 55:40 the different booths. So if you're going to the normal GC 55:43 Session, you take a whole day and you'd walk from booth to 55:46 booth. You pick up material. You visit with the people there 55:50 here, you virtually click, on a booth. And then you can 55:53 chat. We're going to have people from 3ABN who'll be 55:56 chatting with you and you can connect with us that way 55:59 and we'll talk to you no matter 56:00 what time zone you're in and it will be a 56:03 great experience. You can get materials from these booths. 56:06 We have all kinds of material that can be downloaded. 56:08 We have free material from 3ABN and so I'm excited. 56:10 >> And you could go from booth to booth without any shoes on. 56:13 You know what there is nothing, being in person and you 56:17 know what? We're looking forward to heaven right? 56:21 I'll tell you what, 3ABN's all about evangelism, 56:22 we have eternity to look forward to. 56:24 God wants us to be on the go. 3ABN is all about 56:26 being on the go. The blessing is on the go. I know we've only 56:30 got about a minute in this in this first hour. But we have 56:32 something we're going to share with you at the beginning of the 56:34 second hour. That's absolutely exciting about a way that you 56:37 can evangelize this summer this fall in a very practical way in 56:42 3ABN's going make that available to you, super excited 56:44 about this, Mister Danny, you're going to share about this, 56:46 too, we're going talk about this Pastor John about what 56:49 opportunity God has for us because he wants us to be 56:51 active and involved and sharing and it's all about not keeping 56:56 inside becoming the dead sea. It's becoming a living lake 56:59 that has life-giving water through Jesus coming into us. 57:02 We can pour it out to others. 57:04 >> Amen, absolutely so I'm excited about that. We have 57:07 much more Marilyn Durant's going to be with us and I think we'll 57:10 get an update on Cuba. Yes, Jeff Doer director of Planned Giving 57:14 Trust Service will be here as well.
