I want to spend my
life, mending broken people.
00:00:00.90\00:00:14.24
I want to spend my
life, removing pain.
00:00:15.54\00:00:25.19
Lord, let my words
heal a heart that hurts.
00:00:25.19\00:00:35.16
I want to spend my
life, mending broken people.
00:00:36.73\00:00:45.87
I want to spend my
life, mending broken people.
00:00:46.91\00:00:56.55
Hello and welcome to another
3ABN Today Behind the Scenes.
00:01:06.63\00:01:10.60
We are so glad
that you have joined us.
00:01:10.77\00:01:12.40
We look forward to spending
these two hours with you each
00:01:12.80\00:01:16.14
Thursday evening.
00:01:16.14\00:01:17.31
And you know, Jill, I like
the Behind the Scenes program
00:01:17.31\00:01:19.34
because it's really praising
the Lord for what He is doing
00:01:19.34\00:01:22.18
through the ministry of 3ABN.
00:01:22.18\00:01:23.85
And I believe that 3ABN is
here for such a time as this, at
00:01:24.35\00:01:29.62
this moment in Earth's history.
00:01:29.62\00:01:31.92
And I also want to say I
believe that you are also here
00:01:32.32\00:01:35.06
on this earth for a
reason and a purpose.
00:01:35.06\00:01:37.19
God has you here.
00:01:37.33\00:01:38.43
You are not here by accident.
00:01:38.63\00:01:40.60
You know, we all have the
opportunity of being able to
00:01:40.90\00:01:43.87
share the love of Jesus
with our fellow brothers and
00:01:43.87\00:01:46.00
sisters.
00:01:46.00\00:01:48.50
It could be just like have a
great day, a friendly smile or
00:01:48.64\00:01:51.77
it could be having
Bible studies in your home.
00:01:51.77\00:01:54.34
But you are not
here by accident.
00:01:54.41\00:01:56.31
You know, I was, there was a
lady that I was talking to on
00:01:56.38\00:01:59.21
the phone, a 3ABN
viewer and a listener.
00:01:59.21\00:02:01.95
And she was talking about
she couldn't really get out.
00:02:02.18\00:02:04.09
But she had like a phone call
ministry, phone call or making
00:02:04.12\00:02:08.02
phone calls to some church
members and friends that needed
00:02:08.02\00:02:10.59
encouragement and also
a card ministry as well.
00:02:10.59\00:02:13.16
So even if you can't get out,
there's something that God has
00:02:13.26\00:02:15.73
for you.
00:02:15.73\00:02:19.40
table.
00:02:19.40\00:02:19.63
We do indeed.
00:02:19.83\00:02:20.80
Before we move to the family,
I just want to say you look very
00:02:21.07\00:02:23.51
handsome tonight, sweetheart.
00:02:23.51\00:02:24.81
I like this
little bow tie going on.
00:02:24.91\00:02:27.34
Well, you're very kind.
00:02:27.58\00:02:29.18
This is a date on the 3ABN set.
00:02:29.24\00:02:30.95
Hey, yeah, we're
having a Thursday night date.
00:02:30.98\00:02:32.65
The two of us with
the rest of our family.
00:02:32.65\00:02:34.25
With you at home.
00:02:34.25\00:02:35.52
So tell us about your bow tie
because you don't usually wear
00:02:36.12\00:02:38.29
bow ties.
00:02:38.29\00:02:38.72
You know, I don't.
00:02:38.79\00:02:39.39
I usually wear a
tie, that's true.
00:02:39.79\00:02:41.76
And this bow tie is,
you can probably hear it.
00:02:41.82\00:02:44.99
I think Zach's running
audio, but this is not plastic.
00:02:44.99\00:02:48.30
It's actually
wooden, has a pattern in it.
00:02:48.43\00:02:50.13
And this is actually made
by my mom's cousin, Dr. Lowell
00:02:50.20\00:02:53.90
Hamill.
00:02:53.90\00:02:57.41
And he makes these.
00:02:57.57\00:02:58.44
A lot of the bow ties come from
wood that's harvested from his
00:02:58.81\00:03:01.71
property.
00:03:01.71\00:03:04.75
And so I told him,
I said, you know what?
00:03:04.98\00:03:06.38
Thank you so much
for this wonderful gift.
00:03:06.45\00:03:08.28
I'm going to wear it on
the next 3ABN behind the scenes
00:03:08.58\00:03:11.32
program.
00:03:11.32\00:03:15.62
gift.
00:03:15.62\00:03:15.96
And it's kind of fun.
00:03:16.19\00:03:16.73
It's kind of a unique piece.
00:03:17.59\00:03:19.26
And yeah, it actually
doesn't feel too stiff.
00:03:20.16\00:03:22.40
You know, it's just
still wrapped around my neck.
00:03:22.60\00:03:24.17
And it's just right here.
00:03:24.17\00:03:24.20
It's just, I don't know,
it's solid, but almost could be
00:03:25.57\00:03:29.34
protection from my
throat or something.
00:03:29.34\00:03:30.71
It's fun.
00:03:32.87\00:03:33.38
So thank you so very much.
00:03:33.51\00:03:34.38
Nice gift.
00:03:34.41\00:03:34.84
So thank you, Uncle Lowell.
00:03:35.08\00:03:36.41
And we want to introduce
the family around the table
00:03:36.41\00:03:38.98
tonight.
00:03:38.98\00:03:41.88
God is doing in and
through the ministry of 3ABN.
00:03:41.88\00:03:45.72
We'll have some family the
first hour and then we'll trade
00:03:45.85\00:03:48.26
out for the second hour.
00:03:48.26\00:03:49.39
For tonight, we have Daniel
Perrin, Professor Perrin is
00:03:49.56\00:03:53.03
what we always call you.
00:03:53.03\00:03:54.00
But Daniel, of course, is the
assistant manager at our 3ABN
00:03:54.60\00:03:58.23
Pastoral Department.
00:03:58.23\00:03:59.23
And so glad you're here tonight.
00:03:59.30\00:04:00.47
That's right.
00:04:00.57\00:04:00.90
Thank you.
00:04:00.90\00:04:03.04
We are taught by him.
00:04:03.57\00:04:05.01
It's good to be here.
00:04:05.01\00:04:05.84
Thank you so
much for being here.
00:04:06.64\00:04:08.31
Coming around the table,
we have singer in Israel, Ryan
00:04:08.31\00:04:12.05
Day.
00:04:12.05\00:04:12.41
And someone had just...
00:04:12.78\00:04:13.95
This was someone who watched
the Sabbath School panel a lot.
00:04:13.95\00:04:16.45
And then they said, now I know
why you all call him singer in
00:04:16.62\00:04:19.62
Israel.
00:04:19.62\00:04:22.29
I get that a lot.
00:04:22.56\00:04:23.49
Do you get that a lot?
00:04:23.56\00:04:26.49
the Sabbath School panel, and
they're like, I didn't know you
00:04:26.49\00:04:28.36
could sing.
00:04:28.36\00:04:30.67
You sing all the time.
00:04:31.10\00:04:31.83
I sing all the time.
00:04:31.83\00:04:32.67
But it happens, I guess.
00:04:32.90\00:04:34.64
I like that though, you know,
because we have what we call
00:04:35.37\00:04:38.14
changing rooms here at 3B.
00:04:38.14\00:04:39.37
We've been in between programs
and we're changing clothes for
00:04:39.37\00:04:41.21
the next program.
00:04:41.21\00:04:44.51
different tie or a coat.
00:04:44.51\00:04:45.51
Yup, that's right.
00:04:45.51\00:04:46.31
And the Lord's given you a
great gift, but also energy
00:04:46.68\00:04:49.12
too.
00:04:49.12\00:04:49.52
So thank you for that.
00:04:49.68\00:04:50.55
And Ryan, I neglected to
mention, but you all already
00:04:50.82\00:04:53.02
know this, General Manager
of our 3B and Praise Him Music
00:04:53.02\00:04:56.42
Network and our coordinator for
S.O.D., School of Discipleship,
00:04:56.42\00:05:00.96
which we'll be
talking about here tonight.
00:05:00.96\00:05:02.83
Coming around the table, we
have the assistant coordinator
00:05:03.20\00:05:05.53
for our School of Discipleship,
as well as 3ABN producer, Ian
00:05:05.53\00:05:09.47
Vandervaal.
00:05:09.47\00:05:09.94
Glad to have you here.
00:05:10.04\00:05:10.81
Thank you so much
for having me tonight.
00:05:10.91\00:05:12.21
It's a pleasure to be here on
the behind the scenes, because
00:05:12.77\00:05:15.58
we all get to see, you know,
what has been going on over the
00:05:15.58\00:05:18.68
last month or so.
00:05:18.68\00:05:19.51
And it's just incredible to see
God at work and what He's doing
00:05:19.95\00:05:22.25
through this ministry
and through each of us.
00:05:22.25\00:05:23.79
And to be a part
of that is humbling.
00:05:23.95\00:05:25.05
Yeah, praise the Lord.
00:05:26.22\00:05:27.69
You know, I know we want to
go to some music and we want to
00:05:28.02\00:05:30.43
talk about 3ABN Camp Meeting
that is just right around the
00:05:30.43\00:05:33.23
corner.
00:05:33.23\00:05:34.66
We want to talk about
an incredible project about
00:05:34.73\00:05:37.07
getting some books out and, of
course, School of Discipleship.
00:05:37.07\00:05:40.27
But I want to just...
00:05:40.50\00:05:41.40
Ryan, I was thinking about
the times that we live in and we
00:05:42.24\00:05:45.47
just came from a rally in Dodge
Center, Minnesota, which we'll
00:05:45.47\00:05:49.48
show...
00:05:49.48\00:05:51.95
on.
00:05:51.95\00:05:56.32
in this world, there seems
to be so much anxiety, stress.
00:05:56.32\00:06:01.19
A lot of people wondering
what's going to happen.
00:06:02.42\00:06:04.49
And when we were there, there
was a really powerful song that
00:06:04.49\00:06:07.93
you did for
church that to me is...
00:06:07.93\00:06:13.13
How would you describe it?
00:06:13.74\00:06:14.97
Where it's like everyone in the
audience participates with you.
00:06:15.00\00:06:17.81
And to me, it
provides such hope, right?
00:06:17.81\00:06:22.58
So you think about...
00:06:22.61\00:06:23.41
Tell me a little bit about that
song and why you actually do
00:06:23.81\00:06:25.78
that song too
because it means so...
00:06:25.78\00:06:27.75
It means a lot to me and
how you do it too means a lot.
00:06:27.75\00:06:30.32
So it's in our hymn.
00:06:30.32\00:06:31.72
It's not
probably saying as often.
00:06:32.15\00:06:35.79
It's not a hymn you hear as
often on any given Sabbath at
00:06:36.59\00:06:40.40
church.
00:06:40.40\00:06:43.87
doing an evangelistic
series in North Carolina.
00:06:43.87\00:06:45.77
And this particular elder stood
up at the church and he told
00:06:46.60\00:06:49.90
the story behind the song of
why he did the little call and
00:06:49.90\00:06:53.58
response thing because we had...
00:06:53.58\00:06:55.41
I think it was an evangelist
back in the day who would also
00:06:56.08\00:07:01.28
do this song in all of
his evangelistic series.
00:07:01.28\00:07:04.49
And the title of the
hymn is Never Part Again.
00:07:04.79\00:07:06.89
Never Part Again.
00:07:07.36\00:07:08.32
And so he would get up in all
of his evangelistic series and
00:07:09.49\00:07:13.70
of course the chorus says...
00:07:13.70\00:07:17.73
What?
00:07:17.73\00:07:18.23
Never Part Again?
00:07:18.37\00:07:19.00
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:19.03\00:07:20.00
We're traveling
through Emmanuel's land.
00:07:20.10\00:07:22.34
We soon shall hear the trumpet
sound and soon we shall with
00:07:22.77\00:07:28.41
Jesus reign and
never, never part again.
00:07:28.41\00:07:32.71
And then he would always prompt
the audience and the audience
00:07:32.88\00:07:36.15
would go, What?
00:07:36.15\00:07:37.15
Because it's the actual lyrics.
00:07:37.82\00:07:38.82
Never part again.
00:07:39.92\00:07:41.66
And then the
response, No, never part again.
00:07:41.96\00:07:45.66
And there's this little
call and response, What?
00:07:45.99\00:07:47.20
And the audience says, What?
00:07:47.20\00:07:48.56
Never part again.
00:07:48.70\00:07:49.56
And I love the way that's
written because I feel like
00:07:49.86\00:07:52.83
just as you've brought out
clearly, that's our longing.
00:07:52.83\00:07:56.40
It's expressing our longing
because all we've ever known in
00:07:56.81\00:07:59.44
this life is death and pain and
sorrow and hurt and heartache
00:07:59.44\00:08:03.45
and the fact that we have to,
for a time, part from our loved
00:08:03.45\00:08:09.02
ones because of the results
of sin in the world that we've,
00:08:09.02\00:08:12.25
this is all we've ever known.
00:08:12.25\00:08:13.25
And it just expresses, the
author of that song expresses
00:08:14.12\00:08:16.89
it so clearly.
00:08:16.89\00:08:17.83
What?
00:08:18.59\00:08:19.09
Never part again?
00:08:19.43\00:08:20.50
No, never part again.
00:08:21.10\00:08:22.43
And so, yeah, we did that.
00:08:22.43\00:08:24.43
We have done it at 3B in camp
meeting a couple times and try
00:08:24.43\00:08:27.50
to do it a few times on
the road in our rallies.
00:08:27.50\00:08:29.84
And so, yeah,
people enjoy singing it.
00:08:29.97\00:08:32.27
I enjoy singing it.
00:08:32.27\00:08:33.41
The words are just beautiful
and it really expresses, I
00:08:33.44\00:08:36.85
believe, the
longing of God's people.
00:08:36.85\00:08:38.78
We're at a time where
we're longing, we're yearning.
00:08:39.01\00:08:41.52
We're at that point where
it's like Spirit and the Bride,
00:08:41.62\00:08:43.65
please.
00:08:43.75\00:08:47.79
want to go home and bring
an end to all of this mess.
00:08:47.79\00:08:51.26
You know, and so, thank you for
sharing that because, you know,
00:08:51.26\00:08:54.73
I just wanted to
tell you this right now.
00:08:54.73\00:08:55.90
Like we talked about
just a couple of minutes ago.
00:08:56.00\00:08:57.60
We want to, 3ABN is all
about hope and we want you to be
00:08:57.70\00:09:01.60
encouraged this evening.
00:09:01.60\00:09:02.60
We all are
longing for a better land.
00:09:02.67\00:09:04.54
But let's hang on.
00:09:04.71\00:09:05.77
Hang on a little
bit longer, right?
00:09:05.81\00:09:07.64
Because Jesus Christ is coming.
00:09:07.64\00:09:09.28
We're on a journey.
00:09:09.64\00:09:10.68
Yes, and some journeys are
absolutely, to me, horrendous.
00:09:10.85\00:09:13.88
Some of the tragedies that may
be happening even right now in
00:09:13.88\00:09:17.55
your own life.
00:09:17.55\00:09:18.55
But that's what the
ministry of 3ABN is all about.
00:09:18.55\00:09:18.59
3ABN is about mending
broken people and you may be the
00:09:21.29\00:09:23.69
person that's
being mended right now.
00:09:23.69\00:09:25.59
And it's because of your
prayers and your continued
00:09:25.79\00:09:28.20
financial support for this
ministry, your ministry, God's
00:09:28.20\00:09:32.73
ministry, 3ABN, that we're
able to provide this hope and
00:09:32.73\00:09:35.90
encouragement.
00:09:35.90\00:09:39.44
in Earth's history.
00:09:39.44\00:09:40.61
And thank you, Ryan, for again
singing that song at the rally.
00:09:40.68\00:09:42.94
Of course, we enjoyed going
but it just again provided such
00:09:43.08\00:09:45.41
hope and encouragement to me
that we're passing through this
00:09:45.41\00:09:47.85
land looking
for an eternal land.
00:09:47.85\00:09:49.42
Amen.
00:09:49.92\00:09:51.12
We do speak in the music.
00:09:51.22\00:09:52.22
Tim Parton, Brother Tim Parton.
00:09:52.25\00:09:53.89
He was there too.
00:09:53.92\00:09:54.69
He was at the rally.
00:09:54.69\00:09:55.76
He recorded the song a
little bit ago we want to go to.
00:09:56.69\00:09:59.16
It's called Power in the Blood
and there is truly power in the
00:09:59.36\00:10:03.90
blood of Jesus.
00:10:03.90\00:10:04.83
Amen.
00:13:12.02\00:13:12.39
Thank you so much, Tim Parton.
00:13:12.72\00:13:14.82
Power in the blood.
00:13:15.02\00:13:16.56
We are redeemed by
the blood of Jesus.
00:13:16.73\00:13:18.96
And that redemption is part
of that healing process we were
00:13:18.96\00:13:22.53
talking about.
00:13:22.53\00:13:23.13
The mending broken people.
00:13:23.16\00:13:24.50
When we present Jesus,
when Jesus is lifted up and
00:13:24.80\00:13:28.57
glorified, all people will
be drawn to him and he's the one
00:13:28.57\00:13:31.87
who brings us healing.
00:13:31.87\00:13:33.27
Amen.
00:13:33.84\00:13:37.35
Ian Vandervalk.
00:13:37.35\00:13:38.48
We have a full first hour
and then we'll be trading out
00:13:38.55\00:13:41.95
guests for the second hour.
00:13:41.95\00:13:42.98
We were talking about the rally.
00:13:43.05\00:13:44.29
We just came from
Dodge Center, Minnesota.
00:13:44.42\00:13:47.79
Want to give a special
thanks to the McNeilas family.
00:13:47.79\00:13:51.33
They worked very hard with
the coordination there providing
00:13:51.43\00:13:55.66
food.
00:13:55.66\00:13:56.13
We had a wonderful time.
00:13:56.50\00:13:57.87
And Pastor Joel, I don't know
how to pronounce his last name,
00:13:58.07\00:14:01.17
Keratsky maybe, the
pastor of the church there.
00:14:01.44\00:14:03.57
And the church members
just opening up their doors and
00:14:03.61\00:14:06.98
getting to meet the 3ABN family.
00:14:06.98\00:14:09.11
I know Tim Parton was there.
00:14:09.28\00:14:10.91
Danny and Yvonne
Shelton were there.
00:14:11.08\00:14:12.41
They can't be with us tonight.
00:14:12.45\00:14:14.15
But Ryan, what was your
experience like being at the
00:14:14.62\00:14:16.89
rally?
00:14:16.89\00:14:19.49
They are.
00:14:20.16\00:14:20.99
Because obviously we're here
most of the time in the studio.
00:14:21.36\00:14:24.63
So we don't get to see our
viewers face-to-face as often.
00:14:24.96\00:14:28.06
But when we get to go out
on these rallies, it's just so
00:14:28.13\00:14:31.63
amazing and powerful just to
meet people face-to-face and to
00:14:31.63\00:14:35.04
hear them express their thanks,
you know, how much the Sabbath
00:14:35.04\00:14:39.84
School panel means to them.
00:14:39.84\00:14:41.08
The family worships that
you guys do are wonderful.
00:14:41.78\00:14:44.21
And the music is
such inspirational.
00:14:44.78\00:14:46.65
And so just to be able to
connect with people and to hear
00:14:46.65\00:14:49.22
them express thanks to us for,
you know, the efforts that we
00:14:49.22\00:14:53.09
put into doing this.
00:14:53.09\00:14:54.32
And then, I don't think our
viewers realize just how much
00:14:54.46\00:14:57.96
of a blessing they are because
we wouldn't be here doing this
00:14:57.96\00:15:01.43
and what we're doing
if it wasn't for them.
00:15:01.43\00:15:03.33
That's correct.
00:15:03.37\00:15:05.83
And so it's very much kind of a
reciprocal response because now
00:15:06.37\00:15:12.17
we get to say to you guys when
we go out, in this case Dodge
00:15:12.17\00:15:15.24
Center, the people of
Dodge Center are so wonderful.
00:15:15.24\00:15:17.61
You know, thank you for
watching and thank you for
00:15:17.75\00:15:19.78
supporting and
for praying for us.
00:15:19.78\00:15:21.35
And so, yeah, I got to use my
singing gift while I was there
00:15:21.45\00:15:27.09
and me and Tim just praised the
Lord in song and to be able to
00:15:27.09\00:15:31.46
sing the way we got to take
a couple of requests while we
00:15:31.46\00:15:33.73
were there and sing some songs
from people who had made some
00:15:33.73\00:15:36.23
requests.
00:15:36.23\00:15:36.56
It was just awesome.
00:15:36.77\00:15:37.50
It was awesome.
00:15:37.60\00:15:42.37
We got to do some tours while
we were there and see some of
00:15:42.44\00:15:45.51
the local, what the McNeely's
family has done to build in
00:15:45.51\00:15:50.38
that community is just amazing.
00:15:50.38\00:15:52.41
And so just to be able to
connect, to me that's, the
00:15:52.81\00:15:55.25
rally is all about connecting
with the people and to be able
00:15:55.25\00:15:58.29
to sit down with them and to
chat with them and just to meet
00:15:58.29\00:16:01.62
them on a personal level
and to show them that we're real
00:16:01.62\00:16:03.63
people too, right?
00:16:03.63\00:16:04.69
Because sometimes they want to
come, can I get your autograph?
00:16:04.86\00:16:06.46
I'm like, I'm not a celebrity.
00:16:06.56\00:16:07.56
I want people to see that we're
people just like they are and
00:16:09.13\00:16:13.37
we appreciate each and every
person that comes and that came
00:16:13.37\00:16:17.37
to Dodge Center and
just want to thank you all.
00:16:17.37\00:16:19.61
Thank you to the McNeely's
family and to Pastor Joel for
00:16:19.84\00:16:23.35
having us to come out
because it was a blessing.
00:16:23.35\00:16:25.41
We leave there filled up,
filled up and excited to be
00:16:26.01\00:16:29.22
able to connect
with our 3ABN family.
00:16:29.22\00:16:30.69
Amen.
00:16:31.09\00:16:34.09
of the family, right?
00:16:34.09\00:16:34.86
We talk about this all the time.
00:16:34.86\00:16:34.89
You're part of the 3ABN family
and so when we get to go out to
00:16:36.12\00:16:38.56
these rallies, to me it's like
kind of have a family reunion
00:16:38.56\00:16:41.53
type thing, you know?
00:16:41.53\00:16:42.33
We're taking
pictures and stuff, you know?
00:16:42.80\00:16:43.93
Some people say,
can we take pictures?
00:16:43.93\00:16:45.03
I'm like, absolutely.
00:16:45.10\00:16:45.83
We're family.
00:16:45.93\00:16:48.24
So, I mean, this, yeah,
nobody's a celebrity here.
00:16:48.30\00:16:50.24
We're all just human beings.
00:16:50.37\00:16:51.27
We, you know,
just normal people.
00:16:51.54\00:16:53.21
So it's wonderful to meet our
family and many people traveled
00:16:53.24\00:16:56.21
from outside the state to
come there to Dodge Center.
00:16:56.21\00:16:59.31
I know some were close to North
Dakota, Fargo, North Dakota and
00:16:59.78\00:17:02.58
from Iowa and one lady I
believe flew up from Georgia.
00:17:02.58\00:17:06.49
She was, I think, visiting some
family but also timed it right
00:17:06.82\00:17:09.62
with the rally.
00:17:09.62\00:17:10.63
So just a great time of
fellowshipping and praising the
00:17:10.76\00:17:13.36
Lord and again special thanks
to the McNeilises and Pastor
00:17:13.36\00:17:15.53
Joel.
00:17:15.53\00:17:18.23
Great fellowshipping.
00:17:18.27\00:17:21.87
people shared with you.
00:17:21.87\00:17:23.00
To me when we, as you mentioned
Ryan, we're sitting in the
00:17:23.04\00:17:25.84
studio and we just look at
the glass camera, you know?
00:17:25.84\00:17:28.08
But when we get to meet you,
you're our family and I always
00:17:28.28\00:17:30.85
say when we go back now,
right now, I can see your faces.
00:17:30.85\00:17:33.68
I can see the faces of the
people that we talked with, the
00:17:33.85\00:17:36.72
people that we prayed with,
the people who are going through
00:17:36.72\00:17:40.06
challenges right now and you
are part of the 3ABN family and
00:17:40.06\00:17:44.63
we love you and we love
that opportunity to connect with
00:17:44.63\00:17:49.20
you.
00:17:49.20\00:17:53.94
Seventh Day Adventist
Church because of this ministry.
00:17:53.94\00:17:56.34
Different stories, different
journeys but all had the
00:17:57.17\00:18:01.48
similarity of somehow stumbling
upon the ministry at 3ABN.
00:18:01.48\00:18:06.41
This was God-ordained
and to see that the messages
00:18:06.72\00:18:10.92
presented, the biblical
truth presented and Jesus being
00:18:10.92\00:18:15.26
lifted up won their
hearts and so praise the Lord.
00:18:15.26\00:18:18.46
I think we have a few pictures
Ian so let's put them up and
00:18:18.56\00:18:20.60
we'll just talk about
them as we go through here.
00:18:20.60\00:18:23.53
This is from the
back of the church there.
00:18:23.57\00:18:25.00
I think Ryan, we can't even
see at the moment but I think
00:18:25.10\00:18:27.20
you're singing and
Tim's at the piano there.
00:18:27.20\00:18:30.01
They had overflow.
00:18:30.34\00:18:31.24
We can just keep
moving through the pictures.
00:18:31.31\00:18:32.81
They had overflow
in the fellowship hall.
00:18:32.81\00:18:35.41
This is a young man
who read that scripture.
00:18:35.48\00:18:38.15
Didn't he do a great job?
00:18:39.21\00:18:40.52
He read the Great Commission.
00:18:41.62\00:18:42.68
Mr. Danny spoke
of course for church.
00:18:43.15\00:18:44.69
I love that.
00:18:44.89\00:18:45.69
Here's Danny and
Yvonne sharing there.
00:18:45.72\00:18:47.66
I think this is in
the afternoon there.
00:18:47.79\00:18:49.32
These two little girls I
met, precious and we got to eat
00:18:49.59\00:18:54.30
lunch together so they
are my sisters in Jesus now.
00:18:54.30\00:18:58.33
That's great because you had
young families and those that
00:18:59.20\00:19:01.44
have more experience and it was
a wide range of ages and just
00:19:01.44\00:19:04.57
excitement.
00:19:04.57\00:19:07.44
all excited about evangelism.
00:19:07.44\00:19:08.58
I know they're excited about
evangelism and while you could
00:19:08.88\00:19:11.55
feel it in fact
you could see it.
00:19:11.55\00:19:13.65
Not just feel it, you could see
it because I know we're going
00:19:13.65\00:19:13.68
to talk about Sod in just a
few moments which is what we do.
00:19:16.25\00:19:18.52
It's all about discipleship
and evangelism but I was just
00:19:18.52\00:19:21.62
amazed to see not only the
McNeil family but they told us
00:19:21.62\00:19:24.53
that there's several other
families in that church that
00:19:24.53\00:19:27.66
are in active small group Bible
studies right now and they're
00:19:27.66\00:19:31.00
adding to the church all the
time just to see the fruit of
00:19:31.00\00:19:34.34
the labor there that they're
actually carrying out that
00:19:34.34\00:19:36.81
evangelism cycle.
00:19:36.81\00:19:37.77
So praise the Lord for what's
going on in Dodge Center of
00:19:38.04\00:19:40.51
Minnesota.
00:19:40.51\00:19:41.11
Very powerful and you're right
because the McNeil's and other
00:19:41.78\00:19:43.75
families are very
evangelistically minded and
00:19:43.75\00:19:46.25
believe in it a hundred percent.
00:19:46.25\00:19:48.05
We should talk about, you
want to talk about the book?
00:19:48.88\00:19:50.32
We should because the call
center is open this evening.
00:19:50.45\00:19:51.42
I just stopped because
the call center is open.
00:19:51.45\00:19:52.89
We should go to this and
then wherever you want to go.
00:19:52.99\00:19:55.02
Can the Christian
Church affirm LGBTQ?
00:19:55.66\00:19:58.79
This is the latest book
actually written by Danny
00:19:59.69\00:20:02.03
Shelton and it's
excellent across the board for
00:20:02.03\00:20:06.00
denominations.
00:20:06.00\00:20:07.07
You could say well this is
just written for the Seventh
00:20:07.14\00:20:08.57
Adventist Church, no because
this is a biblical topic and
00:20:08.57\00:20:12.24
it's one that's come to the
forefront you could say in our
00:20:12.24\00:20:16.24
culture today and because
of that churches are wrestling
00:20:16.24\00:20:20.45
with this topic.
00:20:20.45\00:20:21.62
What are we supposed to do with
LGBTQ and can we affirm it in
00:20:21.68\00:20:26.29
the church and is it actually
sin and what do we do with
00:20:26.29\00:20:29.09
people in the church?
00:20:29.09\00:20:30.16
We are to love people that
is very clear but what are we to
00:20:30.36\00:20:34.00
do with that sin and are
we allowed to call it sin?
00:20:34.00\00:20:37.07
So 3ABN has a brand new
initiative where we are people,
00:20:37.40\00:20:42.60
you at home our 3ABN family are
sponsoring this booklet to be
00:20:43.04\00:20:49.54
mailed into churches
across North America.
00:20:49.54\00:20:52.61
So we just started
with the first sponsorship.
00:20:52.71\00:20:55.38
We had pallets of these go up
to the printer and this booklet
00:20:56.12\00:20:59.95
is being put in with a flyer in
an envelope and is being mailed
00:20:59.95\00:21:03.89
to each.
00:21:03.89\00:21:07.03
the Baptist denomination
and right now it's going out to
00:21:07.03\00:21:10.03
every Baptist church in North
America and for 49 cents per
00:21:10.03\00:21:15.44
church you can send the booklet
and the flyer and that includes
00:21:15.44\00:21:18.61
the postage.
00:21:18.61\00:21:22.14
We want to go to
different churches.
00:21:22.31\00:21:23.98
There's many different
churches who need to hear this.
00:21:24.01\00:21:27.42
So we want to go to many
different churches and sponsor
00:21:27.45\00:21:30.19
that.
00:21:30.19\00:21:33.29
sponsor the mailing of this
booklet into churches across
00:21:33.29\00:21:37.46
North America you can give us a
call right now at 618-627-4651.
00:21:37.46\00:21:43.13
That's 618-627-4651 or you
can go and send snail mail.
00:21:43.63\00:21:51.61

00:21:52.44\00:21:53.64
That still works too and
just put the church mailing.

00:21:57.61\00:22:01.48
go online to 3ABN.TV and on
the donate tab just click on the
00:22:01.48\00:22:07.12
LGBTQ booklet and that will
help sponsor these booklets to
00:22:07.12\00:22:11.79
go into churches.
00:22:11.79\00:22:12.69
Yeah, isn't the I think
the donation code is it 350?
00:22:12.93\00:22:14.86
I believe it is for that.
00:22:15.10\00:22:16.13
Jill is going to look
that up just to confirm.
00:22:16.33\00:22:17.67
But yeah, what a
great opportunity.
00:22:17.67\00:22:19.13
No donation is too small.
00:22:19.23\00:22:20.64
So you think about it.
00:22:20.67\00:22:24.07
someone will send one
dollar in sometimes 60 cents.
00:22:24.07\00:22:26.27
Sometimes a person sends 10,000
or 1,000 or 500 but a lot of
00:22:26.27\00:22:26.31
five dollar, 10 dollar.
00:22:30.18\00:22:31.25
And so like Jill is saying
if you want to just put church
00:22:31.55\00:22:33.45
mailing on your
check it's amazing.
00:22:33.45\00:22:35.45
One dollar will send basically
two of these booklets out to
00:22:35.52\00:22:38.65
two different churches and I
was shocked as we went through
00:22:38.65\00:22:42.06
the mailing list.
00:22:42.06\00:22:46.49
said the Baptist churches which
would be Free Real Baptist,
00:22:46.49\00:22:48.86
First Baptist and of course
it's going to go then to those
00:22:48.96\00:22:52.03
churches here in the
United States and that 49 cents
00:22:52.03\00:22:55.00
includes the postage to that
church, the booklet, the flyer
00:22:55.00\00:22:57.97
and the special envelope.
00:22:57.97\00:22:59.14
So I'm really excited about
this because God asks us to
00:22:59.17\00:23:02.18
just put the word out.
00:23:02.18\00:23:03.11
This also is
promoting 3ABN in it as well.
00:23:03.14\00:23:05.85
So there's the opportunity
for that church to say you know
00:23:05.85\00:23:08.38
what our church would like some
of these booklets to pass out
00:23:08.38\00:23:10.55
to read but also it shares
about what 3ABN is all about.
00:23:10.55\00:23:13.79
So to me it's a great
evangelism opportunity as well.
00:23:13.96\00:23:17.76
So I just really appreciate
the team that worked so hard to
00:23:17.83\00:23:20.46
bring that price down to less
than 50 cents to ship out of
00:23:20.46\00:23:23.37
one book and the flyer and the
envelope and everything to one
00:23:23.37\00:23:26.94
church.
00:23:26.94\00:23:27.27
So what an opportunity.
00:23:27.70\00:23:28.94
I think we talked about this
about a month ago and the money
00:23:29.07\00:23:31.61
has been coming in.
00:23:31.61\00:23:35.94
the printing plant to do
all the inserting and do all the
00:23:35.94\00:23:38.41
postage.
00:23:38.41\00:23:42.52
and shakers as Mr. Danny says
and thank you again for jumping
00:23:42.52\00:23:45.55
on board this
great evangelism project.
00:23:45.55\00:23:47.96
It is fun code 350.
00:23:48.39\00:23:49.69
You have a good memory.
00:23:49.89\00:23:50.36
It is 350.
00:23:50.36\00:23:50.66
All right.
00:23:51.43\00:23:51.66
350.
00:23:51.66\00:23:54.66
donate.
00:23:54.66\00:23:58.13
this project.
00:23:58.13\00:23:59.23
Great.
00:24:00.30\00:24:02.37
School of discipleship.
00:24:02.47\00:24:03.20
You start Ryan and
everybody can jump in.
00:24:04.41\00:24:06.44
Okay.
00:24:06.44\00:24:12.28
the 3ABN School of Discipleship
in July, you need to do that.
00:24:12.28\00:24:16.65
Those dates are July chapter...
00:24:16.85\00:24:18.65
chapter.
00:24:18.65\00:24:19.09
You've been studying the Bible.
00:24:19.35\00:24:20.62
I've been
studying the Bible too.
00:24:21.06\00:24:22.19
Actually, it's a
great chapter in your life.
00:24:23.16\00:24:26.13
I promise you.
00:24:26.26\00:24:26.86
It will be a
defining chapter in your life.
00:24:27.60\00:24:30.50
Boy, that's really thinking
quick right there, by the way.
00:24:30.57\00:24:32.53
Tie that in.
00:24:32.73\00:24:33.64
Okay.
00:24:33.64\00:24:33.77
I've actually been...
00:24:35.07\00:24:35.77
I've been given a lot of Bible
study talks over the last few
00:24:36.47\00:24:38.87
days.
00:24:38.87\00:24:39.01
There's a chapter then.
00:24:39.77\00:24:40.71
July 5.
00:24:41.38\00:24:42.11
That's what we're trying to say.
00:24:42.18\00:24:43.38
July 5 through 14, a brand new
session of the 3ABN School of
00:24:43.45\00:24:47.72
Discipleship.
00:24:47.72\00:24:53.62
.com.
00:24:53.62\00:24:54.26
It's right there on your screen.
00:24:54.36\00:24:55.06
3ABNSOD.com.
00:24:57.19\00:24:57.93
And I'm just going to show
you what it looks like here.
00:24:58.63\00:25:00.50
I don't know if you
could see it on my screen here.
00:25:00.60\00:25:02.40
Let me see if I can
brighten it up a little bit.
00:25:02.53\00:25:04.43
Maybe, maybe it's a
little too bright there.
00:25:05.17\00:25:06.74
But there it is.
00:25:06.87\00:25:07.44
So it'll look
something like this right here.
00:25:07.87\00:25:10.01
And you can see the tabs across
the top there and read our
00:25:10.27\00:25:14.54
handbook.
00:25:14.54\00:25:15.44
You can even download the
handbook and read it for free.
00:25:15.74\00:25:17.78
By the way, download
the handbook and read it.
00:25:17.88\00:25:19.71
Even if you don't
download it, just read it.
00:25:19.75\00:25:21.72
Read through the whole thing.
00:25:21.75\00:25:22.68
I mean, it's very quick.
00:25:22.72\00:25:23.72
I think it's like 14 pages.
00:25:23.82\00:25:25.32
It might even be less than that.
00:25:25.59\00:25:26.99
Very, very quick read,
but it gives you all of the
00:25:26.99\00:25:29.49
information about the
3ABN School of Discipleship.
00:25:29.49\00:25:32.53
This is an intensive.
00:25:32.56\00:25:33.63
It's a one-week intensive.
00:25:34.00\00:25:35.46
So you arrive on Friday,
July 5, and then we will have,
00:25:35.53\00:25:41.77
basically you'll come in
and you'll sign in and we'll get
00:25:42.27\00:25:44.91
you registered and get you
put into your 3ABN apartment.
00:25:44.91\00:25:48.21
We house you.
00:25:48.48\00:25:52.01
just a moment.
00:25:52.01\00:25:52.48
But you'll come
in, you'll sign in.
00:25:52.81\00:25:54.58
We'll get you to your house
and then the next day, very
00:25:54.65\00:25:57.15
relaxed, we just worship
together, get to know each
00:25:57.15\00:25:59.45
other on Sabbath the 6th, and
then starting Sunday, the 7th,
00:25:59.45\00:26:04.43
all the way through to the
14th or through the 13th, the
00:26:04.43\00:26:08.80
Sabbath the 14th, 13th, we are
actually going to be doing our
00:26:08.80\00:26:14.80
classes.
00:26:14.80\00:26:18.44
'clock in the
evening every single day.
00:26:18.44\00:26:20.34
We're going to open up
the spiritual fire hydrant.
00:26:20.41\00:26:22.78
We're going to let the Holy
Spirit set all of us on fire
00:26:23.11\00:26:27.85
and teaching us how to
be disciples and how to make
00:26:27.85\00:26:30.59
disciples for Jesus Christ.
00:26:30.59\00:26:32.19
And so come, come to the
3ABN School of Discipleship.
00:26:32.42\00:26:36.12
Actually we have a promo video.
00:26:36.56\00:26:37.99
You want to play the promo
video and then we're going to
00:26:38.26\00:26:39.96
come back to Ian and Ian's
going to tell us a little bit
00:26:39.96\00:26:41.80
more about the program.
00:26:41.80\00:26:42.43
So let's go to the video now.
00:26:42.50\00:26:43.87
When you think about what
it means to make disciples for
00:26:48.00\00:26:50.97
Christ, it's not just teaching
people a bunch of doctrines or
00:26:50.97\00:26:53.98
teaching people a
bunch of set of beliefs.
00:26:53.98\00:26:56.01
We baptize people.
00:26:56.01\00:26:57.25
We hope the church would
nurture them, but unfortunately
00:26:57.38\00:26:59.15
a church doesn't always nurture.
00:26:59.15\00:27:00.72
And one of the reasons for that
is because they're not always
00:27:01.18\00:27:03.49
trained to nurture.
00:27:03.49\00:27:04.55
We can teach doctrines and
we can share doctrines and all
00:27:05.05\00:27:07.69
those things
are super important.
00:27:07.69\00:27:09.09
But really it's meeting
people where they're at.
00:27:09.52\00:27:11.69
What does it mean
to be a true disciple?
00:27:12.06\00:27:13.50
It means to love
someone else to Christ.
00:27:15.06\00:27:18.07
I wanted to deepen my
relationship with Christ and to
00:27:19.97\00:27:22.77
gain skills to share my faith.
00:27:22.77\00:27:24.41
You don't get any official
leadership training when you
00:27:24.77\00:27:27.41
step up in a position in church.
00:27:27.41\00:27:28.98
I just felt like I
needed further training.
00:27:29.01\00:27:32.05
I wanted to be recharged.
00:27:32.11\00:27:34.12
I wanted to know
that I was doing His will.
00:27:34.45\00:27:37.89
My husband went to
the first sod class.
00:27:38.62\00:27:40.92
When he came back he
was a different person.
00:27:41.02\00:27:43.49
He just had such a piece
that I had not ever seen in him
00:27:43.76\00:27:48.96
before.
00:27:48.96\00:27:49.43
And I just said I want this too.
00:27:49.76\00:27:53.27
Whether it's the classroom
time, the morning worship time,
00:28:30.71\00:28:33.88
the morning prayer time, the
meals, the fellowship, there is
00:28:33.98\00:28:37.11
so much that you're
going to get from this.
00:28:37.11\00:28:39.41
If you're on the fence just
jump over the fence and come on
00:28:39.65\00:28:42.55
over.
00:28:42.55\00:28:44.62
It is an incredible blessing
to just have this and it's going
00:28:44.99\00:28:48.22
to be even more of
a blessing to share.
00:28:48.22\00:28:49.59
You're going to
come back strengthened.
00:28:49.89\00:28:51.83
You're going to come back a
little wiser because your focus
00:28:52.23\00:28:55.60
will have been on
Jesus the entire week.
00:28:55.60\00:28:58.00
This is where our
disciples are truly made.
00:28:58.13\00:29:00.17
Wow!
00:29:07.61\00:29:08.01
Amen!
00:29:08.14\00:29:08.54
The promo was well done.
00:29:09.28\00:29:10.08
I think Brandon
Armstrong did that.
00:29:10.15\00:29:11.31
Yay for Brandon!
00:29:11.88\00:29:13.38
Brandon Armstrong!
00:29:13.85\00:29:14.68
It makes me want
to go to Sod myself.
00:29:15.25\00:29:17.12
And I've been to three.
00:29:18.09\00:29:19.32
I don't sit in all the classes
but of course Jill and I like
00:29:19.32\00:29:21.12
to come and say
hello to the students.
00:29:21.12\00:29:22.72
What an encouraging time and
I tell you just hearing their
00:29:23.02\00:29:25.53
testimonies.
00:29:25.53\00:29:26.13
Wow!
00:29:26.36\00:29:26.76
So inspiring!
00:29:26.76\00:29:27.23
Amen!
00:29:27.50\00:29:27.86
Praise the Lord.
00:29:27.93\00:29:35.30
edit the video, he was
there this past class from early
00:29:35.30\00:29:38.81
morning all the way to late
in the evenings with that camera
00:29:38.81\00:29:42.18
and he was there and he was
getting all the footage and so
00:29:42.18\00:29:45.01
praise the Lord for Brandon.
00:29:45.01\00:29:45.81
Thank you my brother
for all that you do for us.
00:29:46.08\00:29:47.92
Your talents are great.
00:29:48.38\00:29:49.85
But yeah, when you come to
Sod, I just want to talk really
00:29:50.69\00:29:53.76
quickly about the classes
and what you can experience in
00:29:53.76\00:29:56.32
terms of the curriculum and
the education there that you're
00:29:56.32\00:29:59.33
going to receive.
00:29:59.33\00:30:04.43
best disciple and also how
to go make disciples for Jesus
00:30:04.43\00:30:07.87
Christ when you leave Sod and
go back to your home, go back
00:30:07.87\00:30:10.87
to your community
and your churches.
00:30:10.87\00:30:12.04
And so, you're going to
come here and you're going to
00:30:12.31\00:30:14.61
experience right off the
bat a health course from Reese
00:30:14.61\00:30:17.01
Rafferty.
00:30:17.01\00:30:21.02
is basically teaching you how
to overcome through the Bible,
00:30:21.02\00:30:25.85
through a scriptural diet
based, health based education
00:30:25.89\00:30:30.66
based on Scripture and God's
diet plan and God's lifestyle
00:30:30.66\00:30:33.43
plan.
00:30:33.43\00:30:35.66
You're going to learn
about the great controversy.
00:30:35.83\00:30:37.70
You're going to do a small
course on the great controversy
00:30:37.80\00:30:39.93
with Pastor James Rafferty.
00:30:39.93\00:30:41.30
And then, throughout the week
you're going to be taking more
00:30:41.74\00:30:44.74
classes like how
to study the Bible.
00:30:44.74\00:30:46.54
That's always important one.
00:30:46.57\00:30:47.58
Many people don't really know
how to grow in the Lord or take
00:30:47.81\00:30:50.45
their relationship with Christ
in the next level because they
00:30:50.45\00:30:53.05
don't really know how to
dig deep and get in and really
00:30:53.05\00:30:55.38
fully understand the
Scriptures that they're reading.
00:30:55.38\00:30:58.45
And so, we do a full course
taught by Pastor James Rafferty
00:30:58.59\00:31:01.32
on how to study the Bible.
00:31:01.32\00:31:02.29
And then, of course, we'll
be getting right into a biblical
00:31:02.59\00:31:05.59
apologetics class
which I will be teaching.
00:31:05.59\00:31:07.76
We'll be looking at our pillars
of our faith in a very deep
00:31:08.00\00:31:11.63
sense.
00:31:11.63\00:31:15.20
with difficult and challenging
objections to those things.
00:31:15.20\00:31:18.97
We're going to do a little
intense game we call Defending
00:31:20.08\00:31:22.78
the Faith where we put our
brothers and sisters through
00:31:22.78\00:31:25.65
groups and they defend a topic.
00:31:25.65\00:31:27.88
People really like that.
00:31:27.88\00:31:29.02
It's really, really fun and
it actually humbles us a little
00:31:29.22\00:31:32.25
bit.
00:31:32.25\00:31:34.26
And then, we'll be diving deep
into evangelism, learning all
00:31:34.89\00:31:38.69
of the key concepts to
friendship and personal
00:31:38.69\00:31:41.53
evangelism.
00:31:41.53\00:31:45.20
to really do a
public evangelistic series.
00:31:45.20\00:31:48.00
We have a Bible
or a church history.
00:31:48.97\00:31:52.34
Daniel, want to talk about that?
00:31:53.11\00:31:54.08
Your church history class.
00:31:54.08\00:31:54.98
What can they
expect if they come?
00:31:55.08\00:31:56.28
If you come to church history
class, come to Sod, and then
00:31:56.28\00:32:00.88
you'll come to the church
history class, it is not dry,
00:32:00.88\00:32:03.39
it is not boring, but it is
the stories that then we connect
00:32:03.49\00:32:08.29
with that when we see how God
has led in the past, it really
00:32:08.29\00:32:11.76
gives an illustration of
what God has wanted to do in our
00:32:11.76\00:32:14.93
life right now.
00:32:14.93\00:32:15.63
Our history is
rich with stories.
00:32:15.90\00:32:18.13
Not that our life is lived out
simply by telling stories, but
00:32:19.13\00:32:22.04
it really connects us to
what God wants for us to do.
00:32:22.04\00:32:25.24
We can talk about discipleship,
but then we see it lived out,
00:32:25.37\00:32:28.11
and it gives us inspiration
about how to apply it.
00:32:28.58\00:32:31.65
We see what happened years ago,
a few years ago, or many years
00:32:31.88\00:32:35.38
ago, and then we get a picture
of what God wants for us to do
00:32:35.38\00:32:38.59
right now.
00:32:38.59\00:32:39.25
I enjoy studying
it, I enjoy teaching it.
00:32:39.52\00:32:41.56
No, it's powerful.
00:32:41.79\00:32:42.79
I've said in many of his
lectures that he makes it come
00:32:42.96\00:32:45.19
alive, and it's just exciting
to know we have a rich history
00:32:45.19\00:32:48.23
in church.
00:32:48.23\00:32:48.76
So you're going to get that.
00:32:48.90\00:32:49.83
And also, it's a true
discipleship program in the
00:32:50.00\00:32:53.74
sense that we have our regular
class time, and then we break
00:32:53.74\00:32:57.04
in the evenings for the
students to decide to do what
00:32:57.04\00:32:59.47
they want to do.
00:32:59.47\00:33:03.24
together in groups, but in the
evenings for about three hours
00:33:03.24\00:33:07.05
from 6 p.m.
00:33:07.05\00:33:08.18
to 9 p.m., each one of the
instructors and Ian, all of us
00:33:08.25\00:33:13.12
make ourselves available in
the evenings for one-on-one or
00:33:13.12\00:33:16.49
small group discipleship
sessions where if the students
00:33:16.49\00:33:21.00
have questions, Bible
questions, maybe they want to
00:33:21.00\00:33:23.20
pray about something, or
maybe there's just something
00:33:23.20\00:33:25.90
spiritually heavy on their
heart that they just want to
00:33:25.90\00:33:28.34
pray about, they want
some spiritual counsel from the
00:33:28.34\00:33:30.64
Bible, and we can share
some scriptures, some texts.
00:33:30.64\00:33:32.51
It's an opportunity for them
to meet with us one-on-one for
00:33:32.74\00:33:35.94
some private one-on-one
discipleship sessions.
00:33:35.94\00:33:38.71
And it's a power, I'm
telling you, it's powerful.
00:33:39.35\00:33:41.25
That promo tells it all, when
you come, your life's going to
00:33:41.55\00:33:45.49
change.
00:33:45.49\00:33:50.19
you go home and you start
house fires and church fires and
00:33:50.46\00:33:54.56
community fires in a good way,
spiritually speaking, all over
00:33:54.56\00:33:58.17
your community and your
church and in your home.
00:33:58.17\00:33:59.77
Ian, tell us about the
logistics, the details of the
00:34:00.60\00:34:03.47
plan and how they can go
on and sign up and all that.
00:34:03.47\00:34:05.57
Yeah, one thing I want to add
though kind of to what you were
00:34:05.81\00:34:08.18
saying was one of the beautiful
things that I really love about
00:34:08.18\00:34:11.35
S.A.D.
00:34:11.35\00:34:14.45
propel you into your
discipleship journey.
00:34:14.45\00:34:16.75
But one of the most amazing
things that I've noticed from S
00:34:16.75\00:34:19.89
.A.D.
00:34:19.89\00:34:21.86
You know, they come here
expecting something and I've
00:34:22.39\00:34:24.76
said this in a video in one of
our past BTSs, but people come
00:34:24.76\00:34:27.83
here and you're expecting
something very specific.
00:34:27.83\00:34:30.43
But God has a plan for you
here, for something that He
00:34:30.97\00:34:34.60
wants to show you and
that He wants you to learn.
00:34:34.60\00:34:36.81
And I have seen individuals
come here that may have had
00:34:37.04\00:34:39.61
some things in their past
or a little bit broken, maybe a
00:34:39.61\00:34:42.34
little bit frayed or they're
just looking for what do I do
00:34:42.34\00:34:45.31
next because they're so unsure
of certain things and maybe
00:34:45.31\00:34:47.92
that's you who's
watching right now.
00:34:47.92\00:34:49.72
You just want to reignite your
relationship with Jesus and S.A
00:34:49.75\00:34:53.96
.D.
00:34:53.96\00:34:55.46
I've seen lives transform.
00:34:55.69\00:34:57.09
You even saw in the video where
we had a student in our first
00:34:57.19\00:35:01.06
class who he came here kind of
just searching, wondering, you
00:35:01.06\00:35:05.30
know, what does God
have in store for him?
00:35:05.30\00:35:07.17
What's his life going
to be like as a Christian?
00:35:07.27\00:35:09.37
And he had such a peace that
when he left and went back to
00:35:09.70\00:35:13.61
his family, his wife came
to the next class, his daughter
00:35:13.61\00:35:16.54
came to the next class.
00:35:16.54\00:35:17.68
It started, you know, as Ryan
just said, a fire within their
00:35:18.05\00:35:21.38
own home and just to see
the healing that has taken place
00:35:21.38\00:35:24.99
within that family and I
know what God can do in a family
00:35:24.99\00:35:28.06
because he's healed me in my
past, in my family and I know
00:35:28.06\00:35:31.06
what he can do for you too.
00:35:31.06\00:35:32.09
So even if you're just wanting
to grow closer in the Lord and
00:35:32.33\00:35:35.93
just want to strengthen your
relationship with him or maybe
00:35:35.93\00:35:38.23
you just have the
question, I don't know, S.A.D.
00:35:38.23\00:35:41.87
is the place for you and you
definitely want to attend and
00:35:41.97\00:35:45.11
then after that you're
going to be able to share your
00:35:45.11\00:35:47.14
experience and the things
that you've gone through in your
00:35:47.14\00:35:49.58
past, in your life, and in this
class and be able to share it
00:35:49.58\00:35:52.41
with others in such an
effective way that it will just
00:35:52.41\00:35:55.75
be, you know, it will
invigorate others to want to
00:35:55.75\00:35:58.82
know Jesus and to share him
as well and it's just going to
00:35:58.82\00:36:01.62
start that ripple effect that
we're hoping for so that Jesus
00:36:01.62\00:36:04.89
can come ever sooner.
00:36:04.89\00:36:06.06
So with that being said, let me
get into some of the details of
00:36:06.46\00:36:09.93
the class.
00:36:09.93\00:36:14.97
.com and Ryan has stressed it,
I'm going to stress it again.
00:36:14.97\00:36:18.57
Please read the handbook
because many of the questions
00:36:19.04\00:36:21.44
that come in through email
are answered in the handbook.
00:36:21.44\00:36:25.15
But for those of you who might
just want some of the details
00:36:25.45\00:36:28.65
of it, some of the typical
questions that we get is, you
00:36:28.65\00:36:31.75
know, well, where do I stay?
00:36:31.75\00:36:32.72
What do I do for housing?
00:36:32.79\00:36:33.76
Well, we have two
housing options for you.
00:36:33.86\00:36:35.62
So that's part of
our tuition as well.
00:36:35.76\00:36:37.29
So when you go into the
handbook, you're going to see
00:36:37.29\00:36:37.33
two different options.
00:36:39.19\00:36:40.63
Option one, which is, we'll
put you in 3ABN housing, we're
00:36:40.63\00:36:43.70
going to house you in our
apartments, as well as you go
00:36:43.70\00:36:46.97
through the class, you're going
to get all the materials, and
00:36:46.97\00:36:49.47
we provide breakfast and lunch
for you as well so you don't
00:36:49.47\00:36:51.67
have to worry about meals.
00:36:51.67\00:36:52.64
They're nice vegetarian, on
some days, vegan meals, very
00:36:53.48\00:36:57.38
healthy.
00:36:57.38\00:37:00.42
of our students
in our first class.
00:37:00.42\00:37:01.95
But if you need housing from
us, that is going to be option
00:37:02.35\00:37:05.62
one, which is a
$500 suggested donation.
00:37:05.62\00:37:08.66
Now, that covers everything,
like I said, that covers your
00:37:09.06\00:37:11.73
housing, covers your
food, covers the materials.
00:37:11.73\00:37:14.03
You're going to get a lot of
things on thumb drives that we
00:37:14.36\00:37:16.56
give to you, extra things
that are not even taught in the
00:37:16.56\00:37:19.10
class that the instructors
give you just so you're more
00:37:19.10\00:37:21.60
equipped and you can go
home and study and learn more.
00:37:21.60\00:37:24.11
The other option that
you have is option two.
00:37:24.51\00:37:26.44
Now, if you have an RV or
a camper, I know a lot of our
00:37:26.61\00:37:29.21
3ABN family that comes to
camp meeting brings their RVs or
00:37:29.21\00:37:32.35
campers.
00:37:32.35\00:37:32.95
That is option two.
00:37:32.98\00:37:34.25
So that is a $300 suggested
donation, and that gives you
00:37:34.48\00:37:37.95
everything as well.
00:37:37.95\00:37:41.86
lunch, and it gives you all
the materials just like it would
00:37:41.86\00:37:44.39
with option one.
00:37:44.39\00:37:48.20
or whether you want to house
yourself by bringing an RV or a
00:37:48.20\00:37:51.17
camper.
00:37:51.17\00:37:56.77
the handbook.
00:37:56.77\00:37:57.74
If you still have questions,
we are more than happy to answer
00:37:58.01\00:38:01.51
them.
00:38:01.51\00:38:04.91
it for contact us.
00:38:04.91\00:38:05.88
You can send us your questions.
00:38:05.88\00:38:07.15
It will either be Ryan, myself,
Stephanie, one of the staff
00:38:07.15\00:38:10.39
will reach out to you and
answer your questions and we
00:38:10.39\00:38:12.79
really pray for everybody,
all the applicants that come in.
00:38:12.79\00:38:16.22
We pray over them and we know
especially from the last couple
00:38:16.36\00:38:20.00
of classes that the individuals
that come here, God wanted them
00:38:20.00\00:38:23.23
here for a purpose.
00:38:23.23\00:38:24.17
And we know that God has a
purpose for you to be at SOD.
00:38:24.90\00:38:28.70
So I encourage you to apply
and to come to this intensive
00:38:28.77\00:38:31.71
because your
life will be changed.
00:38:31.71\00:38:33.24
In fact, I have to say when we
went to Dodge Center this past
00:38:33.71\00:38:36.68
weekend, we had four previous
SOD students that I got to
00:38:36.68\00:38:40.88
meet.
00:38:40.88\00:38:43.75
them said to me in some way,
form or fashion, since leaving
00:38:43.75\00:38:47.06
SOD, God has done wonderful
things in our lives and in our
00:38:47.06\00:38:51.73
ministries.
00:38:51.73\00:38:52.33
So don't let this
opportunity pass by, friends.
00:38:52.79\00:38:56.23
Go right now.
00:38:56.73\00:38:57.67
Don't hesitate because
the class fills up fast.
00:38:57.77\00:38:59.63
Right now we are
already over halfway filled up.
00:38:59.77\00:39:02.34
We still have some spots
available but if you want to
00:39:02.50\00:39:04.84
make sure you get into
this summer, July 5 to July 14,
00:39:04.84\00:39:08.71
that's the time frame, July
chapter 5, I said earlier, July
00:39:08.88\00:39:12.48
5 to July 14, make sure you go
on right now and fill out that
00:39:12.48\00:39:19.29
application and just come
because I know your life will
00:39:19.29\00:39:23.93
be transformed.
00:39:23.93\00:39:27.76
came.
00:39:27.76\00:39:28.10
I promise you that.
00:39:28.26\00:39:31.13
happens during the
summer break from school.
00:39:31.13\00:39:33.47
So if you're a student, college
student, high school student, I
00:39:33.60\00:39:37.11
think as a high school student
you might need somebody coming
00:39:37.11\00:39:38.94
along with you but
this is that opportunity.
00:39:38.94\00:39:41.54
That's right.
00:39:41.64\00:39:42.08
Absolutely.
00:39:42.54\00:39:42.94
Don't miss it.
00:39:43.21\00:39:43.81
Don't miss it.
00:39:43.98\00:39:44.98
As a teacher you would
know when summer break is.
00:39:45.08\00:39:46.85
That's a good point.
00:39:48.08\00:39:50.89
deadline?
00:39:50.89\00:39:51.35
The deadline for
applications is June 21st.
00:39:51.89\00:39:55.29
June 21st.
00:39:55.39\00:39:56.19
I didn't think
about it for a second.
00:39:56.29\00:39:57.19
June 21st is the deadline
for the application so make sure
00:39:57.53\00:40:00.10
you get them in before then
because we really want to have
00:40:00.10\00:40:02.43
you here.
00:40:02.43\00:40:05.47
has for you and it's
going to be such a blessing.
00:40:05.47\00:40:07.37
That's a good point that Daniel
brought up as far as the age.
00:40:07.84\00:40:09.64
Tell me the age range because
we've had quite a wide range.
00:40:09.74\00:40:12.51
We've had ages
anywhere from 16 to 89.
00:40:13.07\00:40:16.28
Okay.
00:40:16.48\00:40:20.38
We don't care if you're 150
or well I mean obviously we want
00:40:20.45\00:40:24.59
them to at least be of an age
where they can comprehend the
00:40:26.42\00:40:29.92
material but we've had 16
year olds come here and so yeah.
00:40:29.92\00:40:33.50
A 16 year old would need a
chaperone so all those would be
00:40:34.60\00:40:37.90
details.
00:40:37.90\00:40:40.64
Yeah and it's
not all just sitting.
00:40:42.27\00:40:44.07
I don't want to point out
the prayer time in the morning.
00:40:44.51\00:40:46.94
There is information to learn
but that prayer time in the
00:40:47.68\00:40:50.68
morning is really really
powerful and I know at least in
00:40:50.68\00:40:53.75
this last session people were
very very moved and benefited.
00:40:53.75\00:40:56.58
We didn't have that in
the first class and that was
00:40:56.58\00:40:59.72
something that we felt and
I know you brought that up and
00:40:59.72\00:41:02.32
you said was really missing in
that class was that prayer time
00:41:02.32\00:41:05.09
and when that came in in
the second class every single
00:41:05.09\00:41:09.03
person that I had talked to
or even just came up to us you
00:41:09.03\00:41:12.40
know on their own said the
prayer time before class was
00:41:12.40\00:41:15.80
really helped me in my journey
and through this class and has
00:41:15.80\00:41:19.61
really give me an understanding
of prayer that they didn't have
00:41:19.61\00:41:22.41
before or that I
didn't have before.
00:41:22.41\00:41:24.11
A lot of them had said
that so I know it was powerful.
00:41:24.38\00:41:26.48
It's an early morning prayer
time but I can tell you nobody
00:41:26.48\00:41:29.22
came there to
catch up on their sleep.
00:41:29.22\00:41:30.72
I had one individual or two of
them that said we came here to
00:41:31.95\00:41:35.56
take in everything that Sod has
to offer so whatever you guys
00:41:35.56\00:41:38.59
are doing were there and they
showed up every single day and
00:41:38.59\00:41:42.16
it was just you could see
them transform and one of them
00:41:42.16\00:41:44.63
afterwards went back and
started preaching in their
00:41:44.63\00:41:47.80
hometown.
00:41:47.80\00:41:51.91
doing it or he just finished
doing his own evangelistic
00:41:51.91\00:41:55.08
series.
00:41:55.08\00:41:55.64
So he did his own public
evangelism and it's just to see
00:41:56.21\00:41:59.88
that effect again.
00:41:59.88\00:42:00.75
That ripple right?
00:42:00.75\00:42:01.62
It's bigger and bigger.
00:42:01.92\00:42:05.39
mean we're nobody.
00:42:05.39\00:42:06.35
We're just here to try to share
what God has shown us and to
00:42:06.59\00:42:10.09
share it with others and just
to see then what God does with
00:42:10.09\00:42:13.03
them and you know the
next person, next person.
00:42:13.03\00:42:15.30
It's just amazing
to be a part of it.
00:42:15.66\00:42:17.23
It is.
00:42:17.33\00:42:17.90
I was just going to say if
Pastor Rafferty was here he
00:42:18.50\00:42:20.77
would say this and I
want to thank Pastor Rafferty.
00:42:20.77\00:42:23.07
He has been instrumental in
helping us to organize this and
00:42:23.27\00:42:27.71
the expertise that he brings
and the experience he brings in
00:42:27.71\00:42:31.95
this it's a blessing.
00:42:31.95\00:42:33.78
But I just also want to
say the schedule is intense.
00:42:34.32\00:42:37.05
It's the reason why it's called
an intensive because it's from
00:42:37.22\00:42:39.39
8 o'clock in the morning
to about 5 o'clock in the
00:42:39.39\00:42:42.39
afternoon each day from Sunday
all the way through to Friday
00:42:42.39\00:42:45.39
and we let out a little early
on Friday for Sabbath obviously
00:42:45.39\00:42:48.46
for preparation
but I will say this.
00:42:48.46\00:42:50.60
It's not literally
from 8 to 5 non-stop.
00:42:50.87\00:42:53.60
We have breaks in
between each class.
00:42:54.14\00:42:56.00
10 to 15 minute breaks for
you to get up and walk, stretch
00:42:56.44\00:42:59.44
your legs.
00:42:59.44\00:43:00.24
In fact if Pastor Rafferty was
here he would say you get to,
00:43:00.78\00:43:04.41
we have doctors visits
scheduled for you also during
00:43:04.55\00:43:08.05
these 10 and 15 minute seconds
and he would say you get to go
00:43:08.05\00:43:11.49
out and choose to visit Dr.
Fresh Air, Dr. Sunshine, Dr.
00:43:11.49\00:43:18.06
Exercise and so
it's just really cool.
00:43:18.56\00:43:22.13
But yes breaks in between but
it is an intense program but I
00:43:22.13\00:43:26.74
promise you you're not going
to leave thinking man that was
00:43:26.74\00:43:29.24
just so tough and so hard.
00:43:29.24\00:43:30.57
In fact we give a survey out to
all of our students before they
00:43:30.97\00:43:35.24
leave at the very end and
almost all of them, not all of
00:43:35.24\00:43:38.41
them, but almost all of them
have said in some way, form or
00:43:38.41\00:43:40.22
fashion that it's too short.
00:43:40.22\00:43:41.85
It's too short.
00:43:42.08\00:43:42.55
I wish it was longer.
00:43:42.65\00:43:43.55
I wish I could have extended
the time and learned more.
00:43:43.82\00:43:45.95
But we're going to give
you all that we can during that
00:43:46.35\00:43:48.26
intensive time
that you're with us.
00:43:48.26\00:43:49.66
Amen.
00:43:49.66\00:43:49.92
Yeah.
00:43:50.36\00:43:50.73
Praise the Lord.
00:43:50.79\00:43:53.60
Camp Meeting because it's right
around the corner but before we
00:43:53.60\00:43:56.26
go to that we want to talk
to you Daniel about 3ABN's Bible
00:43:56.26\00:44:00.34
Study Guides.
00:44:00.34\00:44:01.14
Many of you if you've
been watching 3ABN for a little
00:44:01.47\00:44:03.91
while we've had, let me pull
these other books off to the
00:44:03.91\00:44:06.51
side, 3ABN's Bible Study Guides
Lessons 1-14 and they have been
00:44:06.51\00:44:12.08
extremely well received.
00:44:12.08\00:44:13.28
Many of you are like oh
yeah we've got some and we're
00:44:13.35\00:44:15.35
ordering more.
00:44:15.35\00:44:16.08
These have been
just a powerful tool.
00:44:16.45\00:44:20.42
Evangelism.
00:44:20.79\00:44:23.93
board and you are currently
using them also in our prison
00:44:23.93\00:44:26.73
ministry but there's
some exciting news because set
00:44:26.73\00:44:30.37
number 2 is going to
be going to press soon.
00:44:30.37\00:44:32.87
I just got to say
they're beautiful.
00:44:33.34\00:44:34.64
The Word of God speaks but when
you pair pictures it draws you
00:44:35.24\00:44:40.48
in and gives illustration.
00:44:40.48\00:44:41.64
But yes, we are almost
done writing the second set.
00:44:42.04\00:44:46.45
There's 14 lessons in
set number 1 covering really
00:44:46.45\00:44:50.49
foundational doctrines of the
Bible and set number 2 has 13
00:44:50.49\00:44:54.92
lessons and I can tell you from
insider information there is
00:44:54.92\00:44:59.79
about one and a half
lessons left to be written.
00:44:59.79\00:45:02.53
So they're still, they're
almost to the very end and it
00:45:03.03\00:45:08.00
has been such a privilege and
I say that just from the heart,
00:45:08.00\00:45:12.61
such a privilege to write these
and I wish you, all of you to
00:45:12.67\00:45:17.35
have the same opportunity to
write because you write a set
00:45:17.35\00:45:23.85
of Bible studies and it's not
the only way to express God's
00:45:23.85\00:45:27.32
truth and when somebody goes in
and writes down what does God's
00:45:27.32\00:45:31.23
Word mean?
00:45:31.23\00:45:31.66
What does it say?
00:45:31.73\00:45:32.39
It really invigorates you.
00:45:32.59\00:45:34.00
It's kind of like doing some
work on your electrical outlets
00:45:34.20\00:45:38.23
without turning the power off.
00:45:38.23\00:45:39.73
You know, you get some zings
of power suddenly, unexpectedly.
00:45:40.17\00:45:43.84
Yes!
00:45:44.27\00:45:44.91
I never thought about that.
00:45:44.91\00:45:46.61
Working on it to and...
00:45:46.74\00:45:48.44
That's great because I
have done that on the electrical
00:45:48.44\00:45:50.08
outlets, so yes.
00:45:50.08\00:45:50.91
That's right.
00:45:51.08\00:45:51.71
And so when you're working with
the Word of God, it zings you
00:45:52.48\00:45:55.32
with power unexpectedly and you
realize this is a true double
00:45:55.32\00:46:01.66
-edged sword.
00:46:01.66\00:46:02.32
I love it.
00:46:02.39\00:46:02.99
You know, it is powerful.
00:46:02.99\00:46:04.46
It really reaches
inside to your very heart.
00:46:04.69\00:46:07.40
So I want to...
00:46:08.23\00:46:10.83
You know, thank
you for adding that.
00:46:10.93\00:46:13.20
You know, or if you want to
be like Greg, he does do with
00:46:13.54\00:46:15.87
electric on, so yes,
it can zing you a timer.
00:46:15.87\00:46:18.57
I appreciate that.
00:46:19.44\00:46:20.68
No, actually, I do turn
it off most of the time.
00:46:20.81\00:46:22.51
So yes, so tell us some of
the topics, Brother Daniel, that
00:46:22.74\00:46:25.15
there are...
00:46:25.15\00:46:26.38
So, we've got 13 topics and the
first one really picks up where
00:46:26.38\00:46:31.55
lesson number 1 to 14
ended, which is we got some
00:46:31.55\00:46:35.32
foundational truths which began
with the great controversy on
00:46:35.32\00:46:39.63
through the Bible and the
law of God and the Holy Spirit
00:46:39.63\00:46:44.07
moving on through to the second
coming and then we pick up in
00:46:44.07\00:46:47.37
lesson number 15, which
is a lesson on really prayer.
00:46:47.37\00:46:50.71
How do you have a
relationship with God?
00:46:51.27\00:46:54.01
Here, you've got all this
informational knowledge but how
00:46:54.11\00:46:57.31
is it transformational?
00:46:57.31\00:46:58.45
It's by connecting with God
and so lesson number 15 is on
00:46:58.45\00:47:03.35
prayer and a
relationship with God.
00:47:03.35\00:47:05.39
And then we move through,
I'll just take you one at a time
00:47:05.72\00:47:07.76
through them, lesson 16 is
on the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
00:47:07.76\00:47:11.99
How does God fill His people
and use His people when they're
00:47:12.26\00:47:15.53
connected with Him?
00:47:15.53\00:47:16.30
And then lesson 17 moves into
the gift of prophecy because
00:47:16.77\00:47:20.87
one of those really important
and they're all important in
00:47:20.87\00:47:23.67
the church, one of those really
important gifts is how God
00:47:23.67\00:47:26.54
communicates and so the
gift of prophecy is an important
00:47:26.54\00:47:30.61
lesson.
00:47:30.61\00:47:31.31
And then that would be 15, 16,
17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23.
00:47:31.85\00:47:36.79
There's a six lesson set that
move through topics of Bible
00:47:36.89\00:47:40.62
prophecy.
00:47:40.62\00:47:41.29
Three of them dealing with
Daniel, with the prophecies of
00:47:41.82\00:47:44.89
Daniel which is really powerful
and moving through Daniel
00:47:44.89\00:47:49.53
chapter 2 and Daniel chapter
7 and then 8 and 9 and all of
00:47:49.53\00:47:54.30
those things and I had written
on the top of each paper as I
00:47:54.30\00:47:57.67
was working on
them, show them Jesus.
00:47:57.67\00:48:00.14
And so as we go through Daniel,
how do we see Jesus which is
00:48:00.74\00:48:03.91
not hard to see when
you have that experience of
00:48:03.91\00:48:07.32
communicating
with God in prayer.
00:48:07.32\00:48:08.72
And then lessons 19, let's
see, 19, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23.
00:48:09.55\00:48:14.76
There we go.
00:48:14.86\00:48:17.79
Particularly, now the
whole book of Revelation is the
00:48:18.33\00:48:21.50
prophecies of God rolling
out through the time when Jesus
00:48:21.50\00:48:25.07
went back to heaven.
00:48:25.07\00:48:26.23
But particularly dealing with
those things that are coming to
00:48:26.80\00:48:30.37
happen soon in
these latter days.
00:48:30.37\00:48:32.47
So we have the prophecies
of Revelation 12 and 13
00:48:32.61\00:48:36.38
especially.
00:48:36.38\00:48:37.21
The two beast powers in
Revelation 13 and the mark of
00:48:37.55\00:48:40.95
the beast.
00:48:40.95\00:48:41.35
And so I think people will
learn quite a bit or add to the
00:48:42.45\00:48:46.22
things that they've already
learned because we find these
00:48:46.22\00:48:48.82
things taught in other places
but here they are in these
00:48:48.82\00:48:51.49
three of the inset.
00:48:51.49\00:48:52.46
So that leaves us four lessons
at the end and you want to know
00:48:52.73\00:48:54.56
what's in them.
00:48:54.56\00:48:55.03
Oh yes we do.
00:48:55.23\00:48:56.06
Lesson number 24
is on the Millennium.
00:48:56.70\00:49:00.04
What happens immediately
after during that thousand years
00:49:00.30\00:49:03.71
after Jesus
returns to this earth.
00:49:03.71\00:49:06.24
And he takes the righteous with
him, the saved, the redeemed,
00:49:06.47\00:49:10.31
not righteous in their own
power, takes them to heaven
00:49:10.55\00:49:12.55
during that thousand years and
what happens on earth and what
00:49:12.55\00:49:15.28
happens at the end
of that time period.
00:49:15.28\00:49:16.69
And then lesson number 25
is on heaven and the new earth.
00:49:17.49\00:49:21.59
It's a beautiful lesson and
a beautiful promise all from
00:49:22.16\00:49:25.86
scripture and
it takes us deeper.
00:49:25.86\00:49:27.96
Beyond simply I'm going to pet
a zebra and I'm going to ride
00:49:28.26\00:49:31.67
down the neck of a giraffe.
00:49:31.67\00:49:33.03
Really what does God
really have in store for us?
00:49:33.87\00:49:37.54
And I don't think I adequately
described it because it's
00:49:37.87\00:49:42.01
higher than words can describe.
00:49:42.01\00:49:44.21
And hopefully it's my
prayer that this lesson gives a
00:49:44.98\00:49:48.22
glimpse into what God could not
even express in human language.
00:49:48.22\00:49:52.29
And then the last two lessons
really deal with the response
00:49:52.85\00:49:56.02
to the whole
teaching of Bible truth.
00:49:56.32\00:49:58.29
Two aspects of the response.
00:49:58.59\00:50:00.03
A stepping out in faith
decision which is baptism.
00:50:00.93\00:50:04.10
And then the final lesson 27
is the continual stepping out in
00:50:04.63\00:50:10.41
faith.
00:50:10.41\00:50:14.04
It's the aspect of stewardship
which is not about finances
00:50:14.41\00:50:18.31
alone.
00:50:18.31\00:50:22.45
of everything
you've done for me.
00:50:22.45\00:50:24.02
You gave it all for me.
00:50:24.29\00:50:25.49
I choose to.
00:50:26.32\00:50:27.49
I willingly give everything
to you for your direction and
00:50:27.52\00:50:31.36
instruction.
00:50:31.36\00:50:31.79
And so we will end that set
of lessons pointing back to what
00:50:32.76\00:50:35.90
Jesus has done all
the way along the way.
00:50:35.90\00:50:38.07
It started out.
00:50:38.47\00:50:39.07
If you've gone through this
first set of studies it starts
00:50:39.70\00:50:44.11
with the
question what is God like?
00:50:44.11\00:50:45.91
And the answer is God is love.
00:50:46.57\00:50:48.64
And that's where the
lessons end because that was the
00:50:48.88\00:50:51.98
starting place.
00:50:51.98\00:50:52.88
It's the end point and it's the
checkpoint all along the way.
00:50:53.21\00:50:56.08
God is love.
00:50:56.38\00:51:00.59
These are
incredible Bible studies.
00:51:01.72\00:51:04.89
The Lord has used you
Daniel in the creation of them.
00:51:05.66\00:51:08.50
There's no doubt
in my mind about that.
00:51:08.63\00:51:10.70
And we've been hearing
testimonies of people who use
00:51:11.07\00:51:13.70
the first set and how it's
blessed and ministered to them
00:51:13.70\00:51:17.44
or in their community.
00:51:17.44\00:51:18.84
You can download the first
set for free at our website.
00:51:19.14\00:51:22.68
That's a great way to be able
to access them or you can order
00:51:23.18\00:51:26.85
these from our call center.
00:51:26.85\00:51:28.25
You can call us
at 618-627 -4651.
00:51:28.65\00:51:33.25
That's 618-627-4651 and order
them and they're available 10
00:51:33.46\00:51:39.16
sets for a suggested donation

shipping.
00:51:43.67\00:51:45.87
All 14 lessons.
00:51:46.50\00:51:47.50
There's the QR codes on the
back where you have videos and
00:51:47.74\00:51:50.74
more information
about that particular topic.
00:51:50.74\00:51:53.64
We're doing that on
the second set as well.
00:51:53.94\00:51:55.71
The first set is
called Looking Higher.
00:51:56.41\00:51:59.75
The second set is called
Searching Deeper because we're
00:52:00.22\00:52:03.82
really getting into
those deep prophetic teachings.
00:52:03.82\00:52:07.19
Very excited.
00:52:07.69\00:52:08.76
It will be coming out Lord
willing for fall camp meeting.
00:52:08.89\00:52:12.13
Very excited and thank you.
00:52:13.16\00:52:14.73
You want to say
something on that?
00:52:14.73\00:52:15.70
I just want to
say thank you Daniel.
00:52:15.80\00:52:16.97
Your name is not on it as
like the author but you are the
00:52:18.03\00:52:21.34
mastermind that the Lord you
know you've used the gift that
00:52:21.34\00:52:23.84
God has given you to write
these lessons in a course of
00:52:23.84\00:52:25.74
being reviewed by
multiple people here at 3 a.m.
00:52:25.74\00:52:27.98
But again thank you.
00:52:28.01\00:52:31.31
be able to explain things and
it's just a great gift and the
00:52:31.31\00:52:35.25
response has been tremendous
so thank you for letting God use
00:52:35.25\00:52:38.35
you as a vessel to
write these lessons.
00:52:38.35\00:52:40.69
Super excited about them
and like Jill mentioned the call
00:52:40.79\00:52:43.09
center is open tonight.
00:52:43.09\00:52:44.99
We're talking about the
LGBTQ booklet and being able to
00:52:45.13\00:52:48.20
support this incredible project.
00:52:48.20\00:52:49.56
49 cents is all it takes to
send a booklet, a flyer and a
00:52:49.76\00:52:54.80
beautiful envelope to a local
church in the United States.
00:52:54.80\00:52:58.41
Right now we're focusing on
the Baptist denomination and
00:52:58.41\00:53:01.04
there's about 70,000 churches
here in the United States which
00:53:01.04\00:53:03.61
is just amazing to me.
00:53:03.61\00:53:04.85
So if you'd like to support
that project this evening even
00:53:05.11\00:53:07.22
a dollar will send
books out to two churches.
00:53:07.22\00:53:09.35
But while you're at it might
as well do the 10 for 25 and get
00:53:09.65\00:53:13.79
these lessons shipped to
you because we also want to
00:53:13.79\00:53:16.09
encourage you to start Bible
studies and maybe your church
00:53:16.09\00:53:18.76
and your local
home and your community.
00:53:18.76\00:53:20.63
So what a great
opportunity like Jill said.
00:53:20.63\00:53:22.73
$2.50 a set postage paid to you.
00:53:22.76\00:53:25.60
A great deal.
00:53:25.60\00:53:25.63
3Amen is all about evangelism.
00:53:26.33\00:53:27.57
You are too.
00:53:27.77\00:53:31.27
take advantage of them in
a good way and just share the
00:53:31.27\00:53:33.07
good news of Jesus Christ.
00:53:33.07\00:53:34.48
Ian, you were going to say
something probably about these
00:53:34.48\00:53:34.51
Bible study guys.
00:53:36.38\00:53:36.88
I did.
00:53:36.91\00:53:40.75
had a moment that specifically
relates to these Bible studies
00:53:40.75\00:53:45.15
where I came home after doing
a Thursday night live from here
00:53:45.15\00:53:49.59
and I walk into my bedroom
and I saw my son and my wife in
00:53:50.36\00:53:54.30
there going through these
Bible studies but it was my son
00:53:54.30\00:53:57.80
giving the Bible study.
00:53:57.80\00:53:59.10
So he was actually going
through one of these lessons.
00:53:59.67\00:54:02.00
He was teaching it to my wife,
to his mom as if he was the one
00:54:02.10\00:54:07.21
who was going to conduct a
Bible study with somebody else
00:54:07.21\00:54:09.81
and to hear the things that he
was saying because obviously he
00:54:09.81\00:54:14.58
went through it and he read
it and he was pulling things out
00:54:14.58\00:54:18.19
and he didn't know I was
there and I just had the biggest
00:54:18.19\00:54:21.06
smile on my face as I came home.
00:54:21.06\00:54:23.43
So these Bible studies
anybody can teach them.
00:54:23.49\00:54:26.09
It's not just for those
who have been a Seventh-day of
00:54:26.19\00:54:29.76
Venice or have been a
Christian all their lives.
00:54:29.76\00:54:31.30
My son is a young teenager and
here he was taking these Bible
00:54:31.87\00:54:35.54
studies, applying it to his
own life, sharing what he knows
00:54:35.54\00:54:38.74
about Jesus and what he knows
about the Bible and doing as
00:54:38.74\00:54:41.54
well and it brought so much
joy to my heart to see him using
00:54:41.54\00:54:45.21
these and growing his
relationship with the Lord.
00:54:45.21\00:54:47.08
Amen.
00:54:47.55\00:54:47.88
That's great.
00:54:48.12\00:54:48.75
I like that.
00:54:48.95\00:54:49.65
Should we talk
about camp meeting?
00:54:50.22\00:54:51.22
We got three minutes in the
remainder of this first hour.
00:54:51.45\00:54:54.76
Three ABN camp meeting is
coming in just a couple weeks.
00:54:55.56\00:54:58.89
June 5 through 8 is the
dates, preparation for the final
00:54:59.59\00:55:04.13
prices, the speakers coming
in, Pastor Doug Batchelor,
00:55:04.13\00:55:07.34
Sebastian Braxton, Christopher
Hudson, Ryan Johnson, Ron
00:55:07.40\00:55:11.11
Kelly, Lonnie Melashenko, Dr.
David Shin, and of course our
00:55:11.11\00:55:14.91
three ABN people, I just call
it people, but our three ABN
00:55:14.91\00:55:18.45
family as well.
00:55:18.45\00:55:19.41
That's a better word.
00:55:19.41\00:55:20.25
We'll be sharing.
00:55:20.55\00:55:21.52
So we're looking forward
to this time of fellowship
00:55:21.85\00:55:25.45
together.
00:55:25.45\00:55:26.15
I believe there are maybe just
a couple RV spaces left behind
00:55:26.72\00:55:31.76
the couple left.
00:55:31.76\00:55:33.53
We're completely full over at
the worship center, but if you
00:55:33.93\00:55:37.30
would like to bring an RV, you
can call us right now and say
00:55:37.30\00:55:40.37
you want to come into
camp meeting, bring an RV.
00:55:40.37\00:55:42.47
Call us at 618-627-4651.
00:55:42.87\00:55:47.14
That's 618-627-4651 and we
would love the RV spots are
00:55:47.71\00:55:52.61
complimentary.
00:55:52.61\00:55:53.25
Many people come in camp.
00:55:53.62\00:55:55.02
We've heard from scores of
people who are bringing tents
00:55:55.08\00:55:58.32
or people stay in a hotel,
so camp meeting is an incredible
00:55:58.32\00:56:01.66
time.
00:56:01.66\00:56:02.16
Daniel, there's
a time of prayer.
00:56:02.49\00:56:03.59
Maybe talk to us about the time
of prayer at the beginning as
00:56:03.73\00:56:05.36
Each day we meet in the morning
and it is a time of corporate
00:56:05.49\00:56:10.10
prayer where Donald Owen and
a couple of other pastoral staff
00:56:10.10\00:56:14.60
we meet together and we
just lead the group in a time of
00:56:14.60\00:56:17.67
prayer and it has grown because
it started a few years ago and
00:56:17.67\00:56:20.71
now it's grown and I think last
time we spilled over out of the
00:56:20.71\00:56:23.81
room we were in and had to
go to a bigger room, but I would
00:56:23.81\00:56:27.78
say, let me be honest, I would
say There's not enough people
00:56:27.78\00:56:30.29
there.
00:56:30.29\00:56:33.86
It's an early hour before
breakfast, but it's just a
00:56:33.92\00:56:36.89
blessing.
00:56:36.89\00:56:37.43
It is a blessed time together.
00:56:37.59\00:56:38.73
What a great way
to start the day.
00:56:38.99\00:56:40.30
A little bit of
music, a lot of prayer.
00:56:40.43\00:56:42.03
Ryan, what's your thoughts
about camp meeting in a few
00:56:43.03\00:56:45.10
seconds?
00:56:45.10\00:56:47.00
I'm excited about the topic I'm
going to get to present, which
00:56:47.64\00:56:49.90
is on the three unclean spirits.
00:56:49.90\00:56:52.04
And so where our focus is
on the crisis during this final
00:56:52.14\00:56:56.11
time and how to prepare for it
and how to be prepared for the
00:56:56.11\00:56:58.58
soon returning of Christ
and living in these last days.
00:56:58.58\00:57:01.02
So my friends, come.
00:57:01.32\00:57:02.65
It's one thing to see it on TV.
00:57:03.32\00:57:04.99
It's a whole other
thing to be in person.
00:57:05.32\00:57:06.86
Just come.
00:57:07.02\00:57:07.42
That's all I can say.
00:57:07.59\00:57:08.12
What about you, Ian?
00:57:08.42\00:57:09.26
You produce also
during camp meeting.
00:57:09.29\00:57:11.09
What are your
thoughts on camp meeting?
00:57:11.19\00:57:12.03
Oh, I love camp meeting.
00:57:12.03\00:57:13.50
It's just so much fun.
00:57:13.60\00:57:14.76
It's very busy, very jam packed.
00:57:15.23\00:57:16.80
There's a whole lot going on
between music and sermons and
00:57:16.90\00:57:19.30
spiritual food.
00:57:19.30\00:57:20.10
But it's amazing to see the
people come here and be a part
00:57:20.90\00:57:24.54
of the Rebion physically
instead of just on the other
00:57:24.54\00:57:26.91
side of the TV.
00:57:26.91\00:57:27.54
Yeah.
00:57:27.98\00:57:28.81
Absolutely.
00:57:29.41\00:57:31.95
family.
00:57:31.95\00:57:35.82
but we just invite you to
come, come on down for our 3ABN
00:57:35.85\00:57:40.56
camp meeting and join
us for the second hour.
00:57:40.56\00:57:42.89
