01:17 And, boy, are we glad you've joined us today,
01:19 and you are going to be glad as well.
01:22 Welcome to 3ABN Today.
01:24 We are interviewing three on fire women
01:29 who have a beautiful ministry called Starting With Jesus.
01:33 And that's all I'm gonna tell you
01:35 about that right now,
01:36 but let me go ahead and introduce.
01:38 Rachel Nelson,
01:39 you are the executive committee chair, right?
01:42 Yes. For Starting With Jesus.
01:44 Yes.
01:45 So glad you're here. Thank you.
01:46 I'm really glad to be here.
01:48 Yeah, you've got a great smell.
01:49 And Katie Chitwood, you are the podcast director.
01:53 I am. Yeah.
01:54 So that's kind of giving us a little...
01:56 Just a little bit.
01:57 And then Ruthie Reeves,
01:59 who is the president of Starting With Jesus.
02:03 It's gonna be...
02:05 These ladies are on fire. They're fun.
02:08 And we're gonna have a good time today, aren't we?
02:11 We are gonna have a great time.
02:13 We're gonna have a great time with starting with the music
02:15 'cause everybody loves music.
02:16 And then we're going to get into this
02:18 because this is high energy.
02:19 And when we're talking about high energy,
02:21 this song is gonna be high energy.
02:24 I love it.
02:25 It's by Martha Jhoana De Luna, "Happiness is the Lord."
05:17 I love that. Thank you, Martha.
05:18 Yeah, that was beautiful.
05:22 And one day I'm gonna play like that when we get to heaven.
05:24 Amen.
05:26 All right.
05:27 Before we get started on the ministry,
05:31 we wanna get to know the ladies.
05:33 So I know that, Rachel, you and Ruthie are sisters.
05:36 Yes.
05:37 Did you grow up
05:38 in a Seventh-day Adventist Christian home?
05:40 We did.
05:41 We were very blessed
05:42 to have wonderful Christian parents
05:44 who from babyhood instilled
05:46 a love of the Bible for both of us.
05:48 And it's just such a blessing.
05:49 When did it become real for you?
05:51 I mean your relationship with the Lord?
05:53 Well, the relationship with the Lord
05:55 became real for me when I was around 11 years old.
05:59 At 11, I decided that actually I didn't want to be
06:03 a Christian anymore
06:05 because I wasn't completely convinced that
06:06 I wanted to have to abide by the Bible standards.
06:10 I wanted to be able to make my own choices
06:12 and I didn't wanna have to always
06:13 follow my parent's rules.
06:16 So at 11 years old,
06:18 I rejected God and rejected Christianity.
06:21 And that lasted for two years.
06:23 Children make big decisions when they're very young
06:26 and many times they never come back.
06:29 But I was so blessed to have praying parents
06:31 who were determined to bother God
06:35 until their kid came back and they bothered Him a lot.
06:39 And when I was 13 years old,
06:41 I attended a meeting, it was Mark Finley, actually,
06:46 who I know has been here before was preaching.
06:49 And he was talking about the love of Jesus.
06:51 And I saw the love of Jesus in a new light.
06:53 And I suddenly realized that by choosing my own way,
06:57 I was hurting Jesus
06:59 and I was contributing to the pain that He had.
07:01 And I fell in love with Jesus.
07:03 I gave my heart to Him and I've never looked back,
07:06 and I'm so thankful for a relationship with Jesus.
07:11 Amen. Amen. Praise God.
07:13 I know there was a time,
07:14 a little later in life I walked away
07:16 and God chased me down with His love.
07:19 So, Ruthie, you grew up in the same environment.
07:21 How about for you?
07:23 When did you develop
07:24 a personal relationship with Jesus?
07:26 Well, I think I was when I was a little bit older
07:29 because I mean, I had always wanted
07:31 to have a personal relationship
07:33 and I really loved Jesus from a young age.
07:34 So it wasn't like I was...
07:36 Had the same kind of struggles
07:38 that my sister did and my parents loved Jesus too.
07:41 But she said they prayed, they would wake up at
07:43 three, four in the morning
07:44 and pray for hours for their children.
07:47 And that, those prayers saved us as children.
07:50 And... But as I grew up...
07:52 We gave them a lot to pray about.
07:54 Yeah, well that too, yes.
07:56 We pray, yes, lots to pray about.
07:59 That's why they had to get up
08:00 at three or four in the morning.
08:02 But yeah, no, so we would, when I was 17,
08:05 I went through some really tough life experiences
08:08 that there are some personal things
08:10 that happened to me
08:11 and I was really struggling to understand
08:14 where I fit in the big picture.
08:15 Sure.
08:17 And so I went to a Christian kind of a,
08:21 with AFCO,
08:22 which is called Amazing Facts College of Evangelism.
08:24 So it's a kind of a college
08:28 where you can put together training center
08:29 where you can get together
08:31 and learn how to study your Bible.
08:33 And then also how you can share that with others.
08:37 And so I went there and as I was studying
08:40 how to share the Bible with others,
08:43 I began to realize, wow, you know what?
08:46 Jesus is so wonderful. Amen.
08:48 And to get that experience that I always wanted,
08:51 but just didn't quite completely get for myself
08:55 and realize that that faith could be mine.
08:59 And that was when I really started that
09:01 solid walking and I'd always been walking,
09:03 but that's when I really started
09:05 to make it mine.
09:06 You know, I always say,
09:08 you learn to teach, but you teach to learn.
09:09 Yes.
09:10 I mean, God can show me
09:12 sometimes the most beautiful things in Scripture.
09:14 And if I don't get out and teach it, you know what?
09:16 Pretty soon, eight months later
09:19 I'm going through book, oh yeah.
09:21 So you learn to teach, teach to learn.
09:24 Katie Chitwood? Yes.
09:26 How did you grow up in a Christian home?
09:28 I did.
09:30 But when I hit my teenage years,
09:32 I think my parents were pretty concerned.
09:36 All I wanted to do was hang out
09:38 with my friends at the pool all summer.
09:39 And my mom was like no, that's really not a good idea.
09:45 So she's like, how about go and do literature evangelism
09:49 and selling door, books door-to-door.
09:51 And I was like, well, I don't know.
09:54 That sounds like it's really hot.
09:56 It sounds like it's a lot of work.
09:57 It sounds like there's a lot of rejection.
09:59 And why would I want to do that
10:01 with my summer when my friends
10:02 are gonna hang out at the pool?
10:04 And she's like, "Well, if you, you stay here,
10:06 I'm gonna put you to work.
10:08 You're going to be painting.
10:09 You're gonna be doing yard work for me,
10:11 like you're gonna work around this house."
10:13 And I decided, you know,
10:15 I don't really want to work around the house.
10:16 So I went to my first summer program
10:19 when I was 16 years old.
10:21 And that was completely life-changing.
10:24 I discovered yes, hard work.
10:27 Definitely, there was hard work,
10:28 but I discovered that God is a personal God.
10:32 He is like right there with you when you're struggling,
10:35 when you're discouraged and you pray,
10:38 all of a sudden, you see these answers to prayer
10:40 and divine appointments and people looking at you
10:43 with tears running down their cheeks saying
10:45 you came right when I needed this.
10:47 Praise the Lord.
10:49 And it just, it changed the trajectory of my life.
10:52 Absolutely.
10:53 I met my husband that first summer.
10:55 He wasn't my husband then,
10:56 obviously I had to grow up a little bit,
10:59 but now we've been married 12 years
11:02 and we're in Arizona on the Navajo nation.
11:05 He's a pastor and I get to work with these amazing ladies
11:09 doing this ministry,
11:11 helping kids to know Jesus better.
11:13 And it's changing our family life
11:16 'cause I have a six year old and an eight year old boy.
11:19 And they are both just,
11:21 they're learning about Jesus because of what we're doing.
11:23 Praise God.
11:25 You know, so many things have been going through my mind
11:27 while you've been talking.
11:28 One is, and I just want to say this.
11:31 I know I've said it before,
11:33 but rules without relationship result in rebellion.
11:37 The most important thing
11:39 that you can do as a parent grandparent,
11:42 any or children at church
11:44 is teach them the love of Jesus,
11:49 teach them that to learn,
11:52 to have a divine awareness of His presence,
11:54 and you ladies have done something amazing.
12:00 And I think, you know, sometimes the devil will send
12:03 something along the world and we know we've had
12:06 some real challenges through COVID,
12:09 but COVID, when COVID hit,
12:13 tell us how you all started.
12:17 And the ministry is called Starting With Jesus.
12:20 And if you start with Jesus, you're gonna end with Jesus.
12:23 Yeah. That's our goal.
12:24 Amen.
12:25 Well, we started out,
12:27 actually the first week that everything got locked down
12:29 and I was talking with some friends.
12:30 And I...
12:32 My husband is also a pastor and they were scrambling
12:35 because most churches are not set up
12:38 for anything like this.
12:41 And so they would,
12:43 the pastors were trying to figure out
12:45 how are we gonna film this?
12:46 How are we gonna make this available for everybody?
12:48 And while they were scrambling, suddenly my mind flashes,
12:51 what about the Sabbath schools?
12:52 What about the kids?
12:54 What about, you know, what do, they don't have anything?
12:56 And most churches not only aren't set up for the pastors,
13:00 they're not set up for the kids
13:01 to be able to participate in anything.
13:03 So I started calling friends.
13:05 I called Katie and then her sister Mindy.
13:07 She called me too. I also called my sister.
13:11 That conversation didn't go so well.
13:12 She's like no. She was a no.
13:14 It was a no at that point.
13:16 And I wrangled her hands since, but now we had,
13:19 I called my sister-in-law is Lindsay
13:21 and that's her sister.
13:23 And so, and Michelle Coy,
13:26 just a bunch of ladies who I was like,
13:28 hey, would you be willing to help us
13:29 make a program?
13:31 And then I called
13:32 some of my other friends and Jonathan,
13:34 Jonathan Menn and Michael Kestorawana.
13:38 And they said, yeah, we'll edit and make a website for you.
13:41 And I said, really?
13:43 And they said, yeah, by the next week,
13:46 that's about five days
13:47 after I started calling everybody.
13:48 We had a website,
13:50 we had a program completely edited
13:51 and ready to go, music,
13:53 coloring pages, craft, everything ready
13:57 and up for our Sabbath schools that didn't have anything.
14:00 Yeah.
14:01 So it's in March of 2020? Yeah.
14:03 This is when COVID really took off.
14:06 Now before then you were
14:07 just taking care of normal business
14:08 and everything,
14:10 the Lord intercedes in your behalf.
14:12 Okay.
14:13 And with this idea, you stepped out in faith
14:16 and then all of a sudden...
14:18 Five days. Wow.
14:20 Yeah. Wow.
14:21 It's amazing. And we haven't missed a week.
14:23 We have not missed a week.
14:24 So give us a little idea about the format.
14:27 I mean, first of all, the, what is the website address?
14:32 So StartingWithJesus.com
14:34 We actually hadn't started out as Starting With Jesus.
14:36 No.
14:37 We started out as a place to do something.
14:39 What was originally,
14:40 'cause in five days you have to think of a name.
14:42 Yeah.
14:43 And I, it was just like, I don't know,
14:45 oh, this is a place to do something.
14:46 And my friend was like, "Yeah, use that."
14:48 So we're like, okay, a place to do something.
14:49 But then later on we changed it to a more a name that
14:54 actually matched to what we really wanted to do.
14:55 Yes. But yeah.
14:57 So what was that, I'm sorry for so much more time.
15:01 Tell us about the format of your program?
15:04 If somebody goes to StartingWithJesus.com
15:06 what are they gonna find?
15:08 Well, they're going to find quite a few different things.
15:10 We have our normal weekly program
15:13 that has a lesson study time, singing time, activity time.
15:19 And just sometimes we'll add a little extra
15:22 few things now and then.
15:23 And then the question time,
15:24 and it's an interactive elements.
15:26 So you can actually, we'll have kids send
15:29 in their videos of them
15:30 saying their memory verses every week.
15:32 And then we include them every single week
15:34 so that they feel like they're part of the program.
15:36 That's wonderful.
15:38 And then we also have questions.
15:39 So they have a... We'll ask them questions.
15:42 Then they send them their answers.
15:43 And then we have a shout out for them every week.
15:46 So those who may not be
15:47 comfortable with the filming part of it,
15:49 they can still be part of the program.
15:50 Amen.
15:51 And we have kids who just, I know you were telling me.
15:54 Yeah, my boys, they love it. We watch it every week.
15:57 And they're like, mommy, mommy,
15:59 get out your phone, write down the answers.
16:01 And so I pull out my phone
16:03 and I like type in answers and then I press send.
16:06 And then the next week they see their names.
16:08 When Ruthie does the shout out, they see their names.
16:11 And if they don't, they're like,
16:12 wait, where was my name?
16:13 'Cause sometimes there's 90 names on this list.
16:16 She goes through and names that are hard to pronounce.
16:19 I really tried, but there are weeks that...
16:22 There are, but my boys are so excited.
16:25 They're like, we want to, you know, be there.
16:27 And they send in their memory verses.
16:28 It's really, really encouraging
16:30 to see them interact with this program.
16:33 And this program, as far as the study,
16:36 this is really about teaching them
16:39 how much God loves them
16:41 so that they can love Him in return.
16:43 We have a lot more than
16:45 just the Sabbath school program.
16:46 Yeah. There's more on the website.
16:47 And I was actually, that was next.
16:49 So we have the Sabbath school part of the website,
16:51 but then we also have our podcast part
16:54 and we also have coloring pages
16:55 that go along with the Sabbath school
16:57 every single week that my father-in-law makes.
16:59 But the podcast program is a daily program.
17:02 So yeah, Katie? Explain podcast?
17:05 Okay.
17:06 So for those that are kind of a little confused on podcast,
17:09 think like YouTube, but only audio.
17:13 Okay.
17:14 So it's an audio free download you can get it
17:18 on your whatever tablet or phone and it's just,
17:23 you click the button and it automatically uploads
17:25 whenever somebody loads one up and you can listen to it.
17:29 And so we have a daily devotional podcast for kids.
17:34 I looked, once this kind of
17:36 all got started and we got our team together.
17:39 I was like, you know, guys, I have a passion.
17:42 I have just this.
17:44 I want to see there to be devotional materials for kids,
17:48 especially the ones that are just learning to read,
17:50 'cause that's where my kids were at.
17:52 Sure. They weren't able to read yet.
17:54 It's hard for a mom to be like, okay, in the busy morning,
17:57 sit down and let's try to do Jesus' time, like what is that?
18:01 And so we, Rachel works with a team to record hymns.
18:06 And so we teach the kid a hymn,
18:08 every two weeks we do a new hymn.
18:11 And then we have like last quarter,
18:14 I did books of the Bible.
18:15 So we learned the books of the New Testament
18:18 and we just every day go over it
18:20 and review it and games.
18:21 And I try to teach them
18:22 about what the books of the Bible are about
18:25 and what's in it.
18:26 And then we have the lesson study
18:29 where we go over a part of the lesson study
18:31 that leads up to the Sabbath school program
18:34 every at the end of the week.
18:36 So it's been really challenging.
18:39 It's been really exciting.
18:40 This quarter, we've started doing a Bible Q and A.
18:43 So I've asked kids to send in their questions.
18:45 Like the most popular one is, will my pet be in heaven?
18:50 And so I've teamed up with my husband
18:52 who's a pastor and we dialogue
18:55 and my kids read the question
18:56 and read the Bible verse
18:57 and we have a Q and A every day.
19:00 And so I tell the kids, yes,
19:01 this is when it's gonna air and they get to listen.
19:04 And it's very hands-on for kids.
19:08 And we also have for the younger ones,
19:10 like the beginners, a friend of mine, Ashley,
19:12 she's put together one with like guessing games
19:16 for the one-year olds to four-year olds.
19:19 And that's twice a week.
19:21 And it's just, it's so wonderful.
19:23 We have these little kids, moms write in and they say,
19:26 my three-year-old wakes up and says,
19:28 I want to listen to weed pod.
19:30 I wanna listen to the weed pod.
19:32 And so we call it the seed pod
19:35 for kids and the seed pod for beginners.
19:37 So they...
19:39 We get so many letters that say,
19:40 my kids are singing these hymns.
19:42 They're learning the songs, the memory verse songs.
19:44 Wow.
19:45 It's incredible what is happening.
19:47 And it's all free, like we are able
19:49 to put this content out
19:51 into families' hands all over the world.
19:54 It's not just here in America.
19:57 We have kids in Australia.
19:58 We have kids in South America.
20:00 We have kids in South Africa, China.
20:03 And so this is all original material.
20:05 You're not just following somebody else's
20:07 Sabbath school panel?
20:08 Well, we are using
20:09 the My Bible First Sabbath School lessons.
20:12 We're following their sequence. Okay.
20:14 But we are generating all the material ourselves.
20:16 That's incredible.
20:18 All right, Rachael you're saying no way,
20:21 Jose, I'm too busy.
20:23 How did they reel you in?
20:25 I'm her sister. No, honestly, I really...
20:29 I didn't have time for one more thing on my plate.
20:32 I'm a pediatrician.
20:33 I'm very busy,
20:34 but God impressed all of us that
20:39 this was something that needed to go forward.
20:41 Amen.
20:42 And the way I got involved actually
20:43 was through a prophecy seminar.
20:45 We decided to do
20:46 a prophecy seminar just for kids
20:48 and targeting ages 8 to 12.
20:52 Literally threw it together.
20:54 The videos I edited,
20:56 I'd never in my life edited videos ever.
20:59 I thought, how hard can this be to string some stuff together?
21:02 And 40 hours later,
21:03 I was barely done with the first one
21:05 and had no idea what I was doing.
21:07 But we threw together these prophecy seminars.
21:10 We had Tina Arnold whose husband's a pastor
21:13 in Greenville, Tennessee.
21:15 She did the prophecy segment.
21:17 We went through Daniel and Revelation.
21:19 Wow.
21:20 And then I had Milka Rojas,
21:22 who is the wife of a physician's assistant
21:25 in Greenville, Tennessee.
21:27 She did character segments.
21:28 What kind of character do children
21:30 need at the end of time?
21:31 Amen.
21:33 We thought, well, we'll just do this
21:34 for our local churches.
21:36 And then my sister said,
21:37 "Hey, why don't you partner with a place to do something?"
21:40 And I said, "I don't know,"
21:42 but we ended up partnering
21:44 and we advertised it just kind of locally.
21:47 We had 500 people sign up, 500 kids.
21:50 We were expecting maybe a hundred
21:52 and we had 500 kids sign up.
21:55 It went worldwide.
21:56 I've gotten people from China who have said,
21:59 they've been watching it.
22:01 It's been in the United Arab Emirates.
22:02 I mean, just all over the world.
22:04 And we have adults who have been calling in
22:08 and are writing in and saying,
22:11 we know this is for kids, but we can understand it.
22:14 You simplified it, so we understand it.
22:17 Amen. So that's how I got involved.
22:20 And again, this is when I look back at it,
22:22 I can hardly watch it myself
22:24 because it's so, so home done.
22:28 But God still used it to reach people
22:30 all over the world.
22:31 Praise the Lord. That is too exciting.
22:34 Well, to me, it's just absolutely amazing,
22:36 'cause, you know,
22:37 there was really no start to it.
22:40 It just jumped out there. Yeah.
22:42 And then you just start putting, build it.
22:44 You just took one block at a time
22:45 and now you've got, so you're fulfilling a need.
22:48 Is that right? That's right.
22:49 Oh, desperate need. Yeah.
22:51 And especially because I think that's an area
22:54 where the interactive elements of it,
22:56 we have, I mean, podcasts,
22:57 they can send in their questions
22:59 and we answer it.
23:00 But the weekly part of it is that
23:01 they can get in every week.
23:03 And I think that's really cool part of it.
23:04 And then that being like a whole evangelistic
23:09 series of prophecy seminar for kids
23:12 that a lot of prophecy is really hard to understand.
23:16 I mean, for adults even. Yeah.
23:19 If you can explain it for a kid to be
23:20 able to understand, I mean, wow.
23:25 I mean, what a way to start a kid with Jesus.
23:29 Amen. Amen.
23:30 And there's a lot of you at home
23:32 that are saying, how do I get these?
23:34 You just go to StartingWithJesus.com
23:37 'cause a lot of adults find...
23:40 I was listening to a pastor,
23:42 I won't mention his name,
23:43 but the other day he was explaining
23:45 the answer to something.
23:47 And when he finished I went, what did you just say?
23:50 Yeah.
23:52 You know, and sometimes we try to make it simple,
23:55 but we just fail to,
23:58 so StartingWithJesus.com
24:01 Obviously there has to be obstacles.
24:05 What would just be without getting too deep?
24:07 What would be just a basic obstacle that,
24:10 wow, I didn't think about that?
24:13 Time. With time.
24:14 Yeah, for sure. Obviously.
24:16 Also none of us are trained.
24:17 I mean, this is not, we all, I mean,
24:20 I did some videoing and video editing
24:21 when I was in college, but it was very basic
24:23 and nothing like,
24:24 I don't have no formal training.
24:26 And so all of us have
24:27 just kind of been learning on the go.
24:29 And so, yeah, that's definitely has
24:31 its challenges because you're...
24:33 When you don't have
24:34 the experience to know what to do,
24:36 you're just kind of sitting there going,
24:37 well, I hope this works.
24:39 Takes it five times as long to do something
24:41 because you don't really know
24:43 what you're doing, but you got to get it done
24:45 and somehow God helps you get it done.
24:46 Amen.
24:47 And I would assume that with time,
24:49 the right people will just start filling up
24:50 those gaps right there.
24:52 And they have been. Yeah.
24:53 Yeah.
24:54 God has been bringing together a team and it's a miracle.
24:57 It truly is a miracle. Yeah.
24:59 When this first started, as I said,
25:01 Ruthie really had the vision and Lindsay
25:05 and Katie and Michelle,
25:07 the four, those four girls really had the vision.
25:10 They stuck with it,
25:11 and God has brought them the team.
25:12 Amen. Amen.
25:14 People have volunteered.
25:15 People have come,
25:17 AudioVerse where we're actually merged
25:19 with AudioVerse.
25:21 And they have been fantastic really.
25:26 And explain in who AudioVerse is part?
25:28 So Audio... Yes. Thank you.
25:29 AudioVerse is AudioVerse.org
25:33 is a wonderful ministry where every...
25:36 You have sermons, you have Bible studies
25:38 and it's all audio and it's all free.
25:41 And it said they reach all over the world
25:44 with the Gospel of Jesus.
25:46 Amen.
25:48 So you all are partnering with them now?
25:49 Yes. Yes.
25:51 And I know that there's a number of people
25:54 who tried to start something,
25:56 but obviously yours has some unique qualities.
26:00 Well, I think one of the reasons
26:02 why ours took off a bit,
26:03 it was because we were literally the first ones,
26:05 we were there the week that everything shut down.
26:07 And so it was just consistent.
26:10 And we actually trying to stop over and over,
26:12 and over and over again.
26:14 She's like, I'm done. I'm done.
26:15 And I said no. I'm done.
26:17 I can't do this anymore. Please, I'm done editing.
26:20 I've spent this many hours.
26:21 I have kids, I have a family, I'm done.
26:23 And then I'd have a kid write to me
26:26 that week and say,
26:28 "We really, really enjoy your program.
26:30 I know that it's, the lockdowns are not happening
26:32 as much anymore, but please, please don't stop."
26:36 I mean, it was the parent writing,
26:37 but the kid she'd put in the little kids quotes,
26:39 like, we love you.
26:41 And I'm like, I love you too, but uh...
26:45 But then as we would get those responses,
26:47 okay, we'll do it one more month.
26:49 And then the month would come to an end.
26:52 We talk about it again.
26:53 I get another note saying, "Hey, we love your program.
26:56 Please don't stop."
26:57 Okay. We'll do another month.
26:59 And then as we kept going, it just, we finally were like,
27:01 well, okay, Lord, you have showed us
27:04 over and over and over and over again that
27:07 this is something you want us to keep going,
27:09 so we'll keep going.
27:10 You know, and it's just gonna keep expanding.
27:12 I mean, you know, the Bible says,
27:14 do not despise the day of small beginnings,
27:16 but you're reaching the United Arab Emirates,
27:19 you're reaching into China.
27:20 You're reaching places that, and you know,
27:23 I'm just sitting here thinking,
27:24 wow, if you've got kids on Sabbath afternoons
27:27 who are like, it's too hot outside,
27:30 it's too cold outside.
27:32 This is something that, you know,
27:33 not just Sabbath afternoons,
27:35 but anytime a child can get on here
27:37 and really learn.
27:39 Well, not only that, but I think that
27:41 there's people out there that are retired,
27:44 they are looking for something to do,
27:46 something that's really exciting,
27:48 something that they can make a big difference in.
27:51 And so, they've got that email address too.
27:55 I would imagine that
27:56 if you're not prepared for that,
27:58 you need to prepare for that.
28:00 Because if this thing continues to grow,
28:02 it could get out of hand...
28:04 Yes.
28:05 And then you could, it could start bothering you.
28:08 And then you kind of get discouraged
28:11 rather than catching the wave and riding with it.
28:13 Yeah. Yeah.
28:14 Let me ask you since you've brought that up now.
28:17 Are you looking, I mean,
28:18 how can others join your ministry?
28:20 Do they?
28:22 Well, there's a lot of different ways, I know.
28:26 We're always, yeah...
28:28 We can definitely use volunteers.
28:29 Amen.
28:30 For example, if there is someone who's retired
28:33 that likes to respond to emails.
28:34 Yes. Amen.
28:35 We could use help with emails.
28:37 There's someone too who's retired,
28:38 they likes to make phone calls, we could use help with that.
28:41 So we definitely could use someone who's retired,
28:44 but has a passion for sharing Jesus with children.
28:48 Amen. We can use you.
28:50 You could use a graphic artist.
28:51 We could use a graphic artist.
28:54 I love a graphic artist. We would love an editor.
28:56 I would love, and this is a hard part,
28:58 'cause you know, we're from the ground up
29:00 and we have limited funds.
29:02 We have limited where we can go.
29:04 But so, we've, we're all volunteers.
29:07 We work all volunteer.
29:08 So it's hard to ask somebody,
29:09 "Hey, would you volunteer to edit our videos for us?"
29:12 Right.
29:14 But we would love to, if somebody is willing
29:16 and has the time and energy to edit videos,
29:19 to create graphics that would be fantastic.
29:22 Yeah.
29:23 Now I'm gonna say something to the graphic artist,
29:26 I mean the editors out there.
29:28 You may not have time to do this full-time
29:30 but if you could even,
29:32 if there's 20 of you who would just do
29:35 one hour a week that would be...
29:37 Yes, absolutely. Amen.
29:38 So I encourage you, what did they do?
29:41 They just email you,
29:43 go to your website and do the email.
29:44 Go to our website, you can email us at
29:46 info@StartingWithJesus.com and we can connect that way.
29:49 Yeah.
29:51 Or go to our website as StartingWithJesus.com
29:52 And, you know,
29:54 it doesn't have to be just the retired.
29:56 I have a young man he's 15 years old
29:58 and I reached out to him and I said,
30:00 "Hey, I need some help
30:02 editing my audio for the podcast.
30:04 It's pretty easy.
30:06 I'll teach you how, would you be willing?"
30:07 And he said, "Well, how much time?"
30:09 And I said, "Only about
30:10 an hour, hour and a half a week."
30:11 It's not much,
30:13 but it would just relieve my burden a little bit.
30:15 And he's like, "Sure." And he's been committed.
30:18 He's been doing a fabulous job.
30:21 And so I have a 15 year old young man
30:23 who volunteers for me.
30:25 He lives in Michigan.
30:26 I live in Arizona, but yet we're still able to...
30:30 Thanks to the internet, connect,
30:31 and he is a huge help.
30:33 So it's not just the retired,
30:36 it's also the young people that want to build a portfolio,
30:39 want to build a resume,
30:41 want to kind of get some experience
30:43 because we're willing.
30:44 I mean, we've learned it. We can teach what we do.
30:47 And it's a really...
30:48 I know some young people out there
30:49 that could probably still teach you something.
30:51 Yeah, it happens. Yeah.
30:52 Thank you. So do we.
30:54 Yeah.
30:55 And I think this is a great opportunity,
30:56 I'm getting my kids involved.
30:58 I have a nine-year-old and 11-year-old.
31:00 They love helping with this. Amen.
31:03 They're benefiting from the program
31:05 and they feel that this is a way they can be
31:07 missionaries during lockdowns.
31:09 It's been really fun.
31:10 You know I think many times
31:13 we do not allow God to be God.
31:17 I mean, He is,
31:18 and He's touching people's heart daily
31:21 and they're looking for direction.
31:23 They just, they may be afraid to ask.
31:26 You know, I mean,
31:27 there's so many people are afraid to ask for anything.
31:31 Yeah. I mean, same thing.
31:33 Any self-supporting ministry needs help.
31:36 Yes. Absolutely.
31:37 Everybody.
31:39 So whether it's really sophisticated,
31:42 whether it's ground roots, whether it's well-organized,
31:45 everybody needs assistance.
31:47 And especially with retired people that are,
31:51 have watched Gunsmoke for so long,
31:54 have seen every, every episode
31:57 and they're ready to do something really for the Lord.
32:00 Yes.
32:01 Well, and, you know, it's so wonderful too,
32:04 as I said, if you can teach a child
32:07 how to have a relationship,
32:09 a personal relationship with the Lord, you're...
32:13 The seeds that you're planting are amazing.
32:16 So let's talk about... Go ahead.
32:18 I was just going to say,
32:19 that's actually why we changed her name,
32:21 'cause it a place to do something it's like, oh yeah,
32:22 it's a place to do something.
32:24 But Starting With Jesus, that was our goal.
32:27 We wanted kids to start their lives,
32:30 start their days, start their moments with Jesus
32:34 so that they can learn of His love
32:35 and just fall in love with who He is.
32:38 Amen. Because He is so amazing.
32:40 Amen. Why wouldn't we want to?
32:41 So when we came with that name,
32:43 like we were surprised it wasn't taken.
32:45 I mean, it was a miracle it wasn't taken.
32:46 Yeah.
32:47 And my husband was actually the one who kind of,
32:49 he and some friends were talking
32:50 and they kind of came up with that and said,
32:52 hey, why don't you do that?
32:53 At first, we're like, no, you know, we, you know,
32:54 do we wanna, you know, take our name
32:56 and we were going back and forth.
32:58 And then we finally said,
32:59 why wouldn't we want to encourage kids
33:02 to start with Jesus?
33:03 Why isn't that a part of our name?
33:05 Why isn't that something that our goal in everything
33:07 we do is even as adults starting our day with Jesus,
33:11 I mean, this had being part of this has,
33:14 you know when I wake up in the morning like,
33:15 oh, I have so much to do with Starting With Jesus.
33:17 And then I'm like, Starting With Jesus.
33:19 All right.
33:20 Yeah, I better start my day with Jesus
33:23 before I work on Starting With Jesus.
33:25 Yes. Amen.
33:26 So, I mean, as an adult,
33:28 it inspires us to start our days with Jesus,
33:30 and our moments of Jesus.
33:31 Obviously as you begin to hear this and never thing,
33:34 it does have an impact on your family.
33:36 Yes, it does.
33:38 I mean, the family now, so I'd like to be part of this,
33:40 but I don't know what to do.
33:42 This has been the conversion of my children.
33:44 Amen. Praise the Lord.
33:45 My daughter had been baptized.
33:47 My son had not taken a stand for Jesus yet.
33:50 And he was young when I'm, you know,
33:52 nine then praying for Him.
33:54 He watched the evangelistic series
33:56 and we had a lot of miracles that happened with that.
34:00 And he saw them firsthand
34:02 and saw God answer prayers firsthand.
34:05 He watched the entire series.
34:07 At the end, he came to me
34:08 and he said, mommy, I'm worried.
34:10 I don't know if I'm gonna be able to go to heaven.
34:12 Wow.
34:13 I said, but, honey, Jesus loves you.
34:14 He said, I know Jesus loves me,
34:16 but mommy, I want to confess my sins.
34:19 I want Jesus to be my savior.
34:21 Mommy, please, can I be baptized?
34:23 I want to show my friends... Praise the Lord.
34:25 That Jesus is Lord of my life. Amen.
34:27 And he was baptized.
34:29 He's on fire for Jesus.
34:31 And I've seen a total change in him.
34:33 Praise the Lord. And I'm so...
34:35 I mean that's, if he's the only person
34:36 saved from all the work we've done, I'll be happy.
34:39 I want other people saved,
34:41 but you know, you want your children saved.
34:43 But the bottom line is what a testimony.
34:45 Yeah.
34:46 And there's people everywhere,
34:48 whether you're nine years old
34:49 or whether you're 90 years old
34:51 are asking that same question.
34:53 They don't necessarily have to come to mommy.
34:56 Yes.
34:57 But they're asking, it's time I'm ready.
35:00 Yeah.
35:02 And, you know, praise the Lord when they make that decision.
35:06 When you're young,
35:08 you avoid all the pain of going.
35:12 You know, when we abuse our free will,
35:19 oh man, we end up in such, you know,
35:22 when the Lord said,
35:23 oh, that you've heeded My commandments.
35:25 And then your peace would have been like the river.
35:28 But when we go the wrong direction,
35:30 it's nothing but pain.
35:31 You mentioned miracles.
35:32 Share a few of those with us.
35:34 I have some fun stories.
35:35 And I know Katie has a couple too,
35:37 but one of my favorite stories was,
35:40 well, I'll share it to you.
35:42 We were trying to get this prophecy seminar edited.
35:45 And I had no idea what I was doing.
35:48 Like really did not have any idea what I was doing.
35:52 And I thought, how hard can it be to upload a video?
35:55 I'm a pediatrician.
35:58 So I go to upload
36:00 our first 30 minute video to Vimeo
36:03 and we were releasing them daily.
36:05 And our release time was 6:00 PM or 5:00 PM.
36:09 Yeah.
36:10 Five or six, I don't remember.
36:12 Any how, I go to upload it at 1 o'clock
36:14 and it's just very slowly, slowly uploading.
36:19 And for those of you who know anything about videos,
36:22 you're laughing at me
36:23 because I should have known that
36:24 trying to upload something that's so large,
36:26 it's gonna take hours.
36:28 Well, long story short,
36:30 we're getting down to the wire and I'm like frantic,
36:34 I'm calling everybody
36:36 I knew who might remotely
36:37 know something about computers and saying, what do I do?
36:39 What do I do to get this uploaded?
36:41 And it somehow got uploaded.
36:44 And the next night things got uploaded
36:47 and I was just barely down to the wire
36:50 trying to get the videos edited,
36:51 so they could get up every night.
36:53 And so I would be
36:54 getting things down to the wire,
36:56 you know, 5 o'clock and it's to be uploaded by six.
36:58 And it would somehow get uploaded by six.
37:00 Wow.
37:01 Well about, we had a 17-day series
37:04 about day five into the series.
37:05 I'd finally gotten and had enough that
37:07 I could start uploading in the morning
37:10 and I thought, good.
37:11 I won't be this frantic attempt to get this up.
37:16 I won't be praying for a whole hour.
37:18 God, please get this uploaded, please get this uploaded,
37:20 which I had been doing.
37:21 Yeah.
37:22 And so I started at eight in the morning
37:24 and it wouldn't upload and it wouldn't upload
37:25 and it wouldn't upload and it wouldn't upload
37:26 and it wouldn't upload.
37:28 And finally, around 1:00 PM,
37:29 I called somebody who had figured out,
37:31 knew what to do.
37:33 And he went through the process
37:34 I'd been going through and he said,
37:36 how in the world have any of your videos
37:38 been getting uploaded?
37:40 None of them should have been uploaded.
37:41 You're doing it completely wrong.
37:42 Praise the Lord.
37:44 And somehow they were all getting
37:45 uploaded in an hour.
37:47 It was a complete miracle.
37:49 And so when I did it the right way,
37:51 they were suddenly getting uploaded correctly.
37:54 But God had just worked through
37:56 my complete ignorance and gotten those videos up.
37:59 One more miracle story.
38:01 The very last video we were doing.
38:05 We had it all edited, ready to go up.
38:09 And all of a sudden the entire file disappeared.
38:12 My computer died.
38:14 And when I resurrected it, it was gone.
38:17 The entire file, nothing left.
38:20 And I didn't have time to redo it.
38:22 And this was the most important meeting.
38:24 This is the appeal.
38:26 And so I called the kids together.
38:28 We prayed.
38:29 I said, Lord, I don't know where this file,
38:31 it's gone, like literally gone.
38:33 We prayed.
38:34 And my son heard
38:35 the computer clicking, he got up.
38:37 He said, mom, check the computer.
38:39 Got up, my file was there. Glory to God.
38:41 I mean, it had been gone and it came back.
38:44 All I can say is God brought it back.
38:45 Amen. Amen. We...
38:47 I can't tell you how many stories
38:50 we've got similar to
38:51 that right here at this network.
38:55 What I want people to hear.
38:57 Number one is your...
39:03 There's people that talk it talk for life.
39:07 There's people that walk the life.
39:09 It's wonderful to choose,
39:11 hey, kids let's get together and let's pray.
39:14 You might have said that to yourself,
39:16 you know, but not get your family involved,
39:20 but you're getting your family involved because this is real.
39:23 You're really learning who God is.
39:26 He's there just willing to assist.
39:28 Yes.
39:29 And it's wonderful that
39:30 you're teaching your children to depend on the Lord.
39:33 I bet you, you know, that there's let me tell her,
39:36 let me tell you a wonderful story.
39:40 Katie, you had a couple of miracle stories too.
39:42 Yeah.
39:43 You know, I wanted to see this podcast
39:47 to help my children and other children
39:51 to really have that relationship with Jesus,
39:54 to get familiar with looking at Bible verses in the Bible.
39:57 And so I've always made it my goal as I'm recording.
40:02 And as I'm going through
40:03 these Bible verses to take the time to go slow,
40:08 so that the kids can work on opening up their Bible,
40:12 finding those verses.
40:13 Amen.
40:15 And so, you know, I say over and over, Acts 5:19.
40:20 Acts is the fifth book in the New Testament.
40:23 It's right after John, you know, Old Testament,
40:26 I'm trying to teach as I'm going.
40:29 And I see it as a miracle that my son,
40:34 especially my six year old,
40:35 he gets up in the morning and he goes,
40:37 and he gets his Bible
40:38 and he gets his little highlighter
40:40 and he sits down
40:41 and he usually has a coloring page
40:43 while I'm doing the talking.
40:44 But then as soon as I say the verse,
40:46 he pauses the recording and he opens it up
40:49 and he's looking through and he finds that verse
40:51 and he takes his highlighter and he highlights that verse.
40:54 Wow, how exciting.
40:55 And I have moms
40:57 that will email me and they're like,
40:58 my son barely knows how to read,
41:01 but he's able to find these Bible verses.
41:03 Wow.
41:04 They're getting into their Bibles.
41:07 I'm like, that's what we want.
41:09 We wanna see our children starting their day with Jesus.
41:12 We wanna see them involved.
41:14 And it's just, it's so exciting to see that.
41:18 I know that Ruthie had one technological issues
41:23 are just like,
41:25 God just wants us to depend on Him
41:27 and to realize that
41:29 it's really Him doing it, it's not us,
41:31 like everything can go wrong.
41:33 And the devil is hating this.
41:35 Like, we're trying to get these kids
41:37 when they're young
41:38 and that's what he's trying to do.
41:40 And so we, the cord, remember the cord.
41:43 Yeah.
41:44 So Lord answers before we even know.
41:46 Amen. Yes.
41:48 And so I was at my sister's for speaking of family impact.
41:53 We actually, over Christmas, we're working on together.
41:56 We were all together and working on...
41:59 Starting With Jesus was our Christmas project.
42:00 So it was our Christmas project.
42:02 So over Christmas he was like,
42:04 she said, hey, can you order
42:05 some things for our production from...
42:08 Amazon. From Amazon?
42:11 Can you order some things for us?
42:12 And I said, "Oh yeah, sure. I'll order it.
42:13 And I'll send it to you."
42:15 And then it ended up that.
42:16 I said, "Hey, why don't you actually order it?
42:18 And I'll just send you the links to order."
42:21 And she said, "Okay, I'll do that."
42:22 So she went ahead and ordered some things and finished it.
42:25 And I ordered a couple of things for her too.
42:28 We got home.
42:30 And a couple days later
42:34 there are packages on my front desk,
42:36 I mean, front porch.
42:37 And I said, "What are these packages?
42:39 I didn't order anything."
42:40 Go out there.
42:41 It's all the things that Rachel had ordered.
42:43 For me. For her.
42:44 Send to her house. Send to my house.
42:46 I live in Tennessee, she's in Washington.
42:48 And we were trying to figure out,
42:49 we like, did we push on the wrong address?
42:50 How?
42:52 I mean, she doesn't normally order stuff for me.
42:53 So how on earth is it in my house?
42:55 This is ridiculous.
42:57 So we're frustrated, not frustrated, just confused.
42:58 I was frustrated. Yeah, she was frustrated.
43:01 I was not happy. 'Cause she needs the stuff.
43:02 And we're...
43:03 And I'm just confused, like, how did this happen?
43:06 That a day or two later, my computer quit working.
43:09 And I thought, why is my computer not working?
43:12 What is this?
43:13 So I tried my code,
43:15 couldn't figure it, it wasn't working.
43:16 I finally figured out my code was fried,
43:19 couldn't get it to work.
43:21 In the packages that had come to my house
43:24 was a brand new code for my computer.
43:28 And the Lord had...
43:30 However, whatever means had changed the address.
43:35 So that would be for me.
43:36 So I could edit the video for that week.
43:37 And we got a message
43:40 that week that said, "Hey, we're in lockdown again.
43:46 We needed this video this week."
43:47 Praise God.
43:49 And I said, "The Lord knew, and He provided."
43:53 And I stopped being frustrated and started being thankful.
43:56 And next time I'll be thankful first.
43:58 But, you know, so we're talking,
44:01 this is impacting your families.
44:03 It's very time consuming and you all are,
44:07 you all have two children each you have.
44:10 You're a doctor. There's a lot going on.
44:13 What would you say aside from how it's impacting
44:18 your families in such a wonderful way?
44:20 What would you say
44:22 is the greatest thing you've learned personally?
44:27 Entire dependence on God.
44:29 Amen. Glory.
44:31 This is not about me. This is not about us.
44:35 And I know we can say that.
44:38 And I have said that in the past,
44:40 but I realize very personally for the first time
44:44 how really this is God's project,
44:48 we just happened to be working for it.
44:49 Amen. Amen.
44:51 You just happened to answer the call.
44:55 I mean, keep going back to that,
44:56 because I think that people's heart to touch daily
44:59 to go do something
45:00 and they have some way of justifying,
45:02 "Well, not me.
45:04 I'm not qualified.
45:05 No, I don't have time.
45:07 No, you know, I've got a full-time job."
45:10 All these things, not realizing the difference
45:12 that the major difference, difference
45:15 that nobody will have any idea of the people
45:18 that you're affecting.
45:20 You know, to me, it's just shows you
45:23 how ingenious God is in His plan.
45:28 I mean, I just...
45:29 It just amazes me all the time.
45:32 Amen.
45:33 Katie, how's it affecting you personally?
45:35 What...
45:36 You know, it's helped me in my day-to-day life.
45:42 So often we just kind of get into our rhythm and what we do.
45:46 And when things go wrong,
45:49 just even a couple of days ago,
45:52 we lost our keys and it was crunch time.
45:54 We were trying to get out the door,
45:56 we needed to lock up the house
45:58 and needed the keys to get into.
45:59 And our keys were nowhere
46:01 and I was really upset and I'm just like,
46:04 kind of huffing and puffing around.
46:06 And I'm like, who had the keys last?
46:08 Like who had them? I don't think it was me.
46:10 And then I'm like, honey, did you have the keys?
46:12 And he was like, well, I'm like you had to have,
46:15 because you're the one that came,
46:16 you know, you start getting in this.
46:18 And all of a sudden,
46:20 I just stopped and I'm like, guys,
46:22 we need to pray about this because our time is ticking.
46:26 We've looked all in the house.
46:27 I don't know where it is. And we just...
46:30 We stopped and we all were coming together
46:33 and we were about to pray.
46:34 Like, I love the verse in Isaiah before you call,
46:37 I will answer.
46:38 Like, I was like,
46:39 God just kind of spoke to my heart,
46:41 you need to stop.
46:42 And right as I stopped,
46:44 my son came in holding the keys
46:45 and he was like,
46:46 I found them out in the driveway,
46:48 in the middle of the driveway,
46:49 like I would have never thought.
46:51 And I'm just like, thank you. Amen.
46:54 But as I was going through that,
46:56 I'm like, why am I getting so stressed about this?
47:00 Like I talk every single day on my podcast
47:04 about depending on God,
47:06 because bad things, they will happen.
47:08 Amen.
47:09 And I feel like kids
47:11 are always given this message of,
47:13 if you believe in Jesus, it's all gonna be okay.
47:15 Yes.
47:17 And it will be okay,
47:19 but there's some hard times we go through.
47:21 Amen.
47:22 And I try to teach them that
47:25 in those hard times to cling to Jesus.
47:28 Amen.
47:29 Because He's right there with you.
47:30 And as I was going through
47:32 these lost key episode or escapade
47:36 or whatever you want to call it,
47:37 I was, I paused.
47:39 And I was like, what do I teach?
47:40 What am I talking about every single day to these kids?
47:44 Am I living that? Amen.
47:46 And it just stopped me in my tracks.
47:48 And then God, here's the keys.
47:50 It's like you remember. It was beautiful.
47:54 All right. Ruthie, your turn.
47:56 I honestly a combination of what they said, plus,
47:59 and I said earlier about starting With Jesus,
48:02 the conviction of that, if I'm preaching something,
48:04 I need to be living it.
48:06 Yes. Amen.
48:07 And I had a similar experience.
48:08 I was still frustrated 'cause my computer quit working
48:10 for Starting With Jesus completely another time.
48:11 This was a completely different time.
48:13 My daughter actually pulled it off the counter and broke it.
48:16 I love her.
48:17 She was a terrifying little energy,
48:19 ball of energy who is everywhere.
48:21 Like her mother. Yeah, pretty much.
48:24 She's almost two.
48:25 And just, and everything had happened
48:27 to just see my computer there.
48:29 And I was showing a video or listening to some music
48:31 or something and she's like, yay, mommy.
48:35 And it goes down crashes.
48:37 And in that experience,
48:38 my initial reaction is pure frustration
48:41 and just wanting to just.
48:43 And in a few days later, it wasn't...
48:45 I wasn't upset at her.
48:46 I was frustrated 'cause of the situation.
48:48 She was fine.
48:49 She didn't mean to, it was an accident,
48:50 but the situation was frustrating.
48:52 And I lost my computer.
48:54 I had like files I hadn't saved into a backup,
48:56 you know, there's whole bunch of things
48:58 that have happened.
48:59 And I went through just, I got angry.
49:01 I was angry and upset and just,
49:03 almost throwing a fit.
49:05 And I'm like, are you a child? This is ridiculous.
49:07 And it...
49:08 And after it, and through it, I was like this.
49:11 I had to step back and say, Ruthie...
49:14 Amen. Are you starting with Jesus?
49:16 Like, this is not okay.
49:18 And I had another experience a few weeks later
49:21 and I thought back on that experience
49:22 of how absolutely childish I had behaved
49:25 and how I hadn't started with Jesus.
49:28 And in the next experience,
49:30 I said, okay, Lord, I'm not gonna do this.
49:33 I'm gonna do what I should've done last time
49:35 and start with Jesus and go through this experience.
49:39 And it was a much better.
49:40 And I didn't have the annoyance afterwards.
49:43 I was like, okay.
49:45 It was so much smoother when you start
49:46 and you begin to keep going with Jesus.
49:48 Amen.
49:49 And you know, I mean, like you said,
49:51 there's always gonna be problems.
49:52 We are all confronted with them.
49:55 And I wanna tell you something, it doesn't matter if somebody
