00:05 [MUSIC] 00:09 >> Hello and welcome back to 3 ABN Special Thanksgiving 00:12 program. We're so glad that you have joined us today for this 00:16 special to me. Celebration with the Lord is doing in our lives 00:20 in the Ministry of 3ABN, it's so fun and of course, to be 00:23 joined with their 3 doing family, but also here at 3ABN, 00:27 it's a blessing to spend this time together, praising the 00:30 Lord, opening his word, having some music. To me, it's 00:33 encouraging. It's encouraging to talk the praises of Lord. 00:37 Yeah. And I also think of Bruce Farley, chairman of 3 Indians 00:40 bore such an inspiration to so many, many of you probably 00:44 heard his testimony he talked about in the tough times. 00:47 Draghi says praise the lord. He said just don't think Im 00:50 pretty says, say it out loud. And so I appreciate Rousseff 00:55 Jackie Farley so much. You know, he's been through a lot 00:57 of trials, life, one of them being cancer he loved to seen. 01:00 You can see now he still gets emotional about it. But yet he 01:03 still says good, Greg. I still praise the Lord. And so 01:08 whatever you're going through, praise the Lord. It's amazing. 01:10 It does wonders to use. So the word is good. 01:14 >> We have on the set. If you're just joining us, you can 01:16 always check out a tree being plus or YouTube and see the 01:19 first hour that you missed. But if you just joining us, 01:21 we have brother Ken Patton and Danny, any Van Shelton and 01:25 Pastor Johnny and the Dahlia didn't see him pass. And I was 01:29 just talking just before we went to the break about Psalm 01:32 16, 11. I love that verse out in his presence is fullness of 01:36 joy. And he was he hope and healing. So I don't know if you 01:40 want to continue on that fog or mist endure whatever. 01:42 >> It's on your heart. I just want to say the slot last 01:45 thing. You know, we should seek the presence of the Lord 01:49 because when we do, this is slight ice. I I picture angels 01:53 drawing near and there's a sweet, sweet feeling you you 02:01 understand you're in the presence of the Lord and 02:03 hearing people how the Lord has ministered to them. And 02:08 in in difficult times, you know, they base the Lords, 02:12 says something to them or something happens that confirms 02:16 to them. He's there. I am way to hang in there. 02:20 >> And you'll see me working in your life and are miss that has 02:26 been very real in our lives. You know, and, 02:29 you know, we hear about so many testimonies from the viewers. 02:33 Are we read letters soon? You know, I follow flat out. 02:38 Tell you right now, Demi Shelton. 02:40 >> When I moved down to southern Italy, no, I said what 02:43 I lied and what it meant to be there and so beautiful. Right? 02:47 Just to the farm land. It is. Yeah. It's nice and peaceful. 02:52 Yeah. Haha. What? We didn't know anything about them in 02:57 Shelton until John Dempsey shared Spanish um church in 03:03 South Chicago and we were so blessed to be here. And then he 03:08 was invited to Wisconsin to speak in Wisconsin. Any share 03:11 more about what 3ABN was. We never heard of it. So then 03:16 we we started communicating and eventually our love story 03:21 became, you know, we became husband and wife. So I-94 when 03:25 I married in engine, then C what I what I was 6 out of 03:30 everything. But often it's like, what am I doing here? 03:34 What am I doing? And so I had no no education in I think 03:40 communication. Yeah, you know, also all stay home, not proud 03:44 of figure something else to do while he's at work an event I 03:48 started volunteering and whatnot. But I didn't realize 03:52 how much I needed 3ABN in my life. And it's like the demons 03:57 that were attacking me, too, you know, 04:00 get away from this area. You don't belong in this area 04:03 that we're going to have it. Even Spanish speaking people in 04:07 the community and all my life. I attended Spanish-speaking 04:11 congregations. 04:12 >> She was very active in church with the young people in 04:15 the youth programs right with the youth programs. And then 04:17 here 04:18 he was an active because your shock. 04:21 >> You know what? We can still be so busy doing stuff in the 04:24 church and not slow down and listen to the light I needed to 04:28 slow to in the snow the home time I needed that I still 04:32 needed because that's when we are able to listen to our 04:35 programming to praise them to put its network, which is 04:39 because we work for the 3, A B, a teen on that wicket doesn't 04:43 mean that we don't watch 3 a B children's that where the price 04:47 in the French and the Russian. But anyhow, there is a time for 04:52 everything. And right now we gather around the table per se 04:56 to share about his goodness and his faithfulness, his press 05:01 ends that S you Callie call on him with the spirit in the 05:07 room, changes a new field that his stress and it's right. 05:11 And so you're driven to bring praise and adoration and 05:15 recognition of this. Great it transforming powerful God. 05:20 And I'm like, well, and so, yes, we do preach the 05:23 everlasting gospel. It's 05:26 what I wanted to share with you and and really out that one to 05:31 the right to speak in public. But I hear the clash between 05:36 she stays 3. If you play well contemplate these weights 05:43 for everything there. Isa season is right. 05:46 >> A time for every activity. There have been a time to be 05:50 born and a time to die. A time to plant and the time to 05:54 harvest a time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear 05:59 down in that time to build up a time to cry and the time to 06:04 laugh, a time to grieve for the time to bans a time to scatter 06:09 those stones in that time to gather stones, a time to 06:13 embrace and a time to turn away, but trying to search and 06:18 a time to quit searching 06:21 and a time to keep them time to throw away and a time to tear 06:26 and the time to and mending broken. Be the time to be quiet 06:32 and the time to speak at a time to love and the time to hate 06:38 a time for war and the time for peace. 06:42 We can get involved too in everything and say they're 06:46 small time. Well, for everything there's a time and I 06:50 just want to take this time. So I encourage you that 06:54 whatever you are going through, it's just a time season because 06:59 there is a change coming and especially in when we cry out 07:04 to the Lloyd. And if you don't have the fear of a asked God to 07:09 give you the faded and contemplate his goodness of his 07:13 mercy in the Bible, what he has done and you can say you are 07:17 here moving in our midst.

Yeah, something from your wife to she 19:46 submitted. Yeah. And so Stephanie wanted to be here. 19:49 Speak for myself first. And then I have a little something 19:51 that she actually wrote this very morning before we came 19:55 together to do this. But, you know, God is just being good. 19:59 And I know I know we often say that we use those were, but 20:02 there's not a day that goes by that. I'm not reminded of just 20:05 how blessed I am used to be alive. Another day to be here. 20:09 One meant to be representing him and 20:13 every single day, a special and not the older I get. The more I 20:18 learned just how 20:21 precious the little things in life are in a sometimes we we 20:26 can get focused on the big grand things that God doesn't. 20:28 You know what, that's a blessing. We should praise him 20:31 for the amazing big things that he does for us. But sometimes 20:35 we forget about the little things to. And and I found this 20:40 little prayer, one of my all-time favorite gospel 20:43 singers. He was the famous base for that Cathedral quartet. 20:47 It was George onto no Tim's, probably Tim knows from talking 20:51 about any of them talking about their and years ago to Bill 20:54 Gates or or song called 20:56 Jesus would just want to thank yous, of course, the full 20:59 before, of course, but George on recorded a prayer. And I 21:02 feel like he encapsulated 21:04 my very prayer when I first heard this record and I 21:06 thought, man, that's just 21:08 it's very simple. But perfect credit goes like this is just 21:10 thank you, Lord. 21:12 Thank you for music and singing 21:14 and for giving us so much to sing about. Thank you for the 21:18 simple things. The sun coming up in the morning. Rain when 21:21 the ground is dry 21:23 for sleep on our bodies are tired. Yeah. And a good meal 21:27 when we're hungry. 21:29 Thank you. 21:30 We can feel things. Yeah, we can laugh and cry. Yeah. 21:35 Thank you for the good times. But thanks for the hard times 21:38 to. Yeah. Keep us depending on you. 21:41 Thank you for the homes and for children. And for giving us a 21:45 chance to know what it's like to be loves. Most of all. 21:50 Thank you for giving us your side. 21:52 Help us to live like that. Lord, we just want to thank 21:55 you. Thank you for being so that. And so just a powerful, 22:01 powerful, simple prayer. But that's the older I get. 22:04 The more I learn to be thankful just for the simple things in 22:06 life. Yeah. And my wife wanted to be here today. Stephanie 22:10 could inch, but she wrote something this morning 22:14 and she was really struggling before coming on the sky really 22:17 don't know what to say. And she was a, you know, as she was 22:20 thinking about what issue is going to say. She's pretty 22:22 emotional and she said you're going to have to read this. 22:24 If I went out there on set and tried to read this, I wouldn't 22:27 get through it. But my wife has a wonderful gift varieties of 22:31 canned nominal writer. He is an action trying to encourage her 22:34 more to write more, maybe even write a book. But 22:37 >> as you guys know, many of many of you may not know she 22:39 she suffers from anxiety and OCD. And but, you know, she's a 22:45 champion. He has good days and bad days like us all. She is a 22:49 champion and she's my she's my backbone. She's she's 22:52 everything to me. And and 22:55 she wrote us this morning, simply ask or will how would 22:58 you express your thinks she went away for a few moments 23:01 into a room by yourself. And then she sent me this 23:05 powerful words. 23:06 She says, how can I put it into words? What I'm thankful for 23:12 when everything I have love and m 23:15 the sustained by God, 23:17 my most sincere gratitude us but a brush to brush stroke on 23:21 a canvas. Well, the masterpiece he has created. I'm blessed 23:27 to be even a speck in the vastness of his love. 23:32 Those that are my dearest friends and family. 23:34 The times that I've been given with him, 23:37 it is but a drop of the hope he has promised us for ever. 23:43 And though my needs are provided to struggle still 23:45 exist 23:47 and those that God in his mercy and care sees fit to allow me 23:52 to be polished into his image skin as I cry out for 23:55 consolation and see no end in sight. I hear him whisper to my 24:00 heart. 24:01 Just a little talk and I trust him. He can use my testimony 24:07 and he can use yours as well. 24:10 He brings moments of joy and peace in the laughter of 24:12 friends. He sends comfort in someone's home or word of 24:16 encouragement to gives happiness in my caring for our 24:20 family pet, the pay offer salvation through his son. 24:24 So what am I thankful for? 24:28 I guess the best way to explain it is 24:32 the one word to encompass all k Stephanie de love. And ensure 24:36 scripture was James Chapter one verse 17? Every good. Just 24:40 every perfect gift is from above. The comes down from the 24:43 father of lights with home. There is no variation or shadow 24:48 attorney. Well, there's a side praised God you for her. 24:52 And this year is just stunning. There would be no praise him 24:54 using network if it wasn't for Stephanie. 24:56 >> And I say that because even though like you guys see me a 24:59 lot and I'm Dylan singing or talking or interviewing. 25:02 I mean, she is just an organizational champion. 25:06 She keeps me organized and she takes all the calls and sends 25:09 all the emails and and does everything behind the scenes 25:12 that needs to be done. So I wouldn't be where I am without 25:16 her. And I'm very thankful for my wife. I'm thankful for a 25:19 godly woman who loves the Lord and keeps me pressing forward 25:23 and encourages me each and every day. 25:24 >> Good. I want to say this to Ryan talking about Stephanie, 25:27 many of you maybe if you're watching 3ABN quite often have 25:30 notice those new fillers on firm steps to Christ. I started 25:33 airing this month in November, brand-new and we have received 25:36 a tremendous response to those little fillers. Well, Stephanie 25:39 Day is the voice behind what you hear reading those 25:42 different parts from stuff. Decries that you're why he is. 25:44 And she did a marvelous job. She's fantastic. Fantastic 25:48 reader. Just loves to express rage. Officer feelings their 25:52 words. And she's very good at it here. 25:54 >> Give it a try to add some of the stuff. She was a gifted 25:57 writer. We have to utilize that more loved him. A universal 26:01 over beautiful hearts going to music on your heart. 26:03 >> Oh, man. Yeah. In fact, I said earlier that it's the 26:05 simple things I'm learning to to be thankful for each and 26:09 every day. And the song that Tim and I was going to do 26:12 together is entitled for this day. Many reminds us too stop 26:17 and take a look at a small, simple things. But yet at the 26:20 end of it all the word we're just thankful for this day, 26:23 sometimes we can get focused on the future. But the Bible says 26:26 the do, you know, do not think about your plans today or 26:29 tomorrow next year next month, you know, because our life is. 26:32 But a vapor were here today were gone the next. But Lord, 26:35 we want to stop and be thankful right now for this day. You 26:38 have given us. 26:40 [MUSIC] 26:44 >> Along the line, 26:48 this rice who? 26:52 >> Since come. 26:56 >> Means 26:59 for every Mars team too 27:03 >> long.

So too. 28:21 Hong Kong's 28:24 to be? 28:28 >> Full raise. We for the first one. We think he 28:37 steam 28:41 of 28:46 shows too. 28:49 >> 0, 2, to 4. 28:56 >> O O? 28:58 [MUSIC] 29:01 >> Is. 29:04 >> We know that 2 wrongs don't feel too. 29:11 [MUSIC] 29:16 [MUSIC] 29:20 >> For the kingdom 29:25 thing. 29:29 >> I know that though, 29:35 >> these yeah. 29:39 >> Long we think you owe this to. 29:49 >> Yeah, it is. 29:51 >> We thank you, 29:54 Stu. 30:02 >> Some time. 30:03 [MUSIC] 30:08 [MUSIC] 30:13 >> She said. 30:15 >> We just want to do. 30:24 >> She is a too. 30:30 >> To. 30:34 [MUSIC] 30:36 >> We. 30:42 [MUSIC] 30:46 >> Big to follow. 30:49 >> We too. 30:55 [MUSIC] 31:00 >> Thank you for being so good. 31:03 What an incredible save your you know, we serve and then 31:08 when you think about it 31:10 and you know the words of the song, you're just saying, 31:12 No, how beautiful when you think about it, we are just 31:15 suspect 31:16 and on this earth. 31:18 And yet God could look down to see each and every one of us 31:23 know, knows our hearts or minds everything about us. 31:27 And it's really more than I couldn't fathom. So I have to 31:31 sit around and times and I say, Lord help my own belief because 31:36 now we say it through a glass darkly but then face to face. 31:39 And so I have to admit to myself, the sounds too good to 31:42 be true. But when you're looking for heavens perspective 31:47 for me, yeah, you know, 31:49 he didn't shed his blood and they were. So no matter what 31:52 you've done, no matter what your past is, you have no past 31:56 notice saying the song Pastor Pass, right. And so it's all 32:00 gone. All you have to do is say, Lord, Save me on the 32:02 center. And when you do that, you confess your sins. He says 32:06 I'm faithful and just to forgive you for me, a sense and 32:10 cleanse you from all unrighteousness wouldn't be 32:12 great. But I'm sure today there's someone watching the 32:15 one listing. We're around the world audience it today. 32:18 You're not happy with the live. You're not really. I can tell 32:21 you maybe going to church you might be dressing up. Even when 32:25 that fans a bow tie or whatever you're doing, you might be an 32:28 elder in the church him. It may have Pastor Ed pastor. 32:32 They came here a number years ago. He's from another state. 32:35 He said I've been passed for 34 years. Just retired. 32:39 And I started watching 3 been this last year and I just gave 32:42 my heart to. Jesus is a master for 34 years. He said I knew 32:48 all about him and I knew all the doctrine. But I did not 32:51 have that. So program had been watching on 3 ABN helped me to 32:55 develop that personal relationships. So no matter 32:59 where you are today, 33:00 we might be that past. You might be the elder you might be 33:03 the day could raise somebody that just thinks you 33:06 accidentally turn on 3 a B in the day. We did. We believe in 33:10 divine Providence. I don't believe in coincidence our 33:13 mistakes and theres a reason got as you're watching this 33:16 program today. So I know hopefully you are too. And and 33:21 I want to really resubmit and commit my life. Yes, is a mass 33:25 Pastor Day. Maybe you would just say their people's good 33:27 watching around the world and this would be a good time to 33:31 say yes, Lord, we thank you for your plan of salvation. We 33:34 thank you that you now preparing a place for us. 33:38 You will come again receive a Sunday or so that where you 33:41 are. We may be also do you say a prayer of the absolute little 33:45 spray, my friends, 33:47 [MUSIC] 33:50 our father in heaven, Lord, maybe. 33:53 >> The someone right now watching this very program that 33:56 says 33:58 I don't have much to be thankful for me 34:01 what they've been through some stuff or maybe they've been 34:03 through hard. 34:06 They have visited the valley of the shadow of death. Save 34:10 we need are in pain all the time. Maybe they struggle with 34:14 mental illnesses and challenges. Lorton may be going 34:19 through deep sorrow, 34:22 whatever the case may be for anyone right now watching Lord, 34:25 you know the hearts and minds of these people or we don't. 34:30 We're asking 34:32 we're pleading Lord in Jesus name 34:35 that you will bring some healing and peace that only you 34:38 can provide 34:40 [MUSIC] 34:42 that warmth, 34:45 kindness, 34:48 beautiful climber. 34:50 I love to pass through their hard to know the censure 34:55 presence that you're near. 34:57 And even though sometimes we might have to endure that 35:02 that dark shadowy part of our life with those midnight of 35:05 despair that we might have to go through from time to time 35:09 that you're with us through it all and that there is a light, 35:12 the theme that there is chilly and it comes in the morning and 35:16 try to help us to focus our attention on your Lord. We just 35:19 want to ask for Gift S if there's anything in our lives 35:23 that we need to surrender to youth theirs. And if they're 35:26 soon that needs to be surrendered. We know you died. 35:30 That sort of sends you died because you love us asked so 35:34 that we may not have to endure the penalties that you've 35:36 already paid.

What's funny is I always tell everybody is that 37:40 my wife is older than I am. Why 2 months. 37:44 >> Holder and cry. So she was baptized in. I think it was 37:49 June one. 37:51 92 and I was baptized in August. It too. Well. 37:54 I enjoy that a lot older than Ahmadinejad. To think that when 38:00 we went there s no rush, I grew up in the Cold War. So between 38:05 the United States and Russia. 38:07 >> And, you know, I've been a Romanian been the case 38:09 chairman, a place of the never thought I'd go to Russia. 38:12 So now to Carter called and said with 3 been join us, 38:16 we were happy to do so. But it's 38:20 night after night, thousands of people came to this event of 38:23 the 6 series and the things she was one of those U.S. a meme. 38:27 So what made you didn't have a Bible at the time right now? 38:31 If you were a Christian to time, 38:33 what made you come to those meeting? 38:37 >> A look in Cookeville stuff. 38:41 You are looking for something in your life. Yeah. Yeah. 38:45 And you showed up that it's stopped him from like 38:51 people board and to let it have killed him and I 38:56 and what 38:58 the whole long joy from life and specially. But if the time 39:06 in the dash and not cope and got to give us hope, you know. 39:12 >> But in addition, you have been to for so many years to 3 39:16 a man, Russian. And we, of course, 3 a man, a mission. 39:19 Jay, I know you've got to be excited. I'm excited about the 39:22 new. Of course we've had 95.9, you know, Duquoin for power 39:26 station, but one in our hometown, West Frankfort, 39:29 Illinois. Yeah, I grew up listening to me far action that 39:34 Sir West Frankfort Station but never thought we actually have 39:38 a radio station here. That's to the music. I don't want to 39:42 sound partial. Yeah, but it's my favorite radio station W it 39:49 MJ or locally. 88.7 Willis and a lot. I do it. We listen to it 39:58 alive when we're going shopping or whatever 40:01 the hand is, just such a blessing and listen to it all 40:05 the time when we're in the car course where it had to work a 40:09 lot during the day. So we can't listen much then. But I've 40:14 noticed is something that happened unexpectedly. 40:19 And one day I was just feeling kind of grumpy. 40:21 >> You know, that happens which everybody her, but I was just 40:28 really kind of grumpy. We were 40:30 >> going shopping and had things to do in all Ed and I 40:34 realize I was driving home. I was in Grumpy 40:38 and I was singing with the song's, OK, heart was lifted 40:42 up. And that's right. I thought I was grumpy this morning, 40:47 not Grumpy. Now, what's the difference? 40:50 And I just I mean, is it some music channel then what's going 40:55 on there? I love that. So I thought praise God. Thank you. 40:58 Yeah. 40:59 >> He's ministering to me. Have to look at that. He's not 41:02 got my vehicles is set to the 88.7. You know, we need to do. 41:08 >> So, tell us something this past year, maybe a scripture 41:13 lesson. Kotz tell you something on your car. 41:15 >> Well, for me, I will say that there are 2 scriptures. 41:20 That means something to me. And so if if I can see it as a 41:25 real good scripture to that, she'll come up with in a moment 41:28 or 2. 41:29 But one can I talk about Helen White before talk about 41:34 Scripture, Hampshire? Okay. Because something has been 41:38 happening to me over the last year or so. The lords have been 41:42 really working with me and helping me to see things more 41:45 in depth about God 41:48 about what he had has planned for us. Me where I've been 41:54 where I am or God wants me to be tend. Several things have 41:58 just 41:59 really struck me. And I was reading 42:05 just a couple of days ago in an Ellen white devotional 42:08 and going on, there was a sense that just jumped out at me. 42:13 >> Never had that happen. Have us. 42:16 >> And what she said was 42:19 give our ways, please God. 42:23 >> The world will. 42:25 >> Hey to us. 42:28 And that spoke to me because 42:32 it helps me to understand the difference 42:35 between me and God 42:40 between me and Jesus. 42:43 Who do I want to be like 42:46 we don't want to be like other people. 42:49 Is that going to be my inspiration from? Here's a 42:52 person over here. He's really successful. And the does this, 42:56 he does that the you know, and Joe, I want to be like that 43:00 person know 43:02 on the leg. And I would be like Jesus came and he's my 43:05 inspiration. And that just spoke to me and especially some 43:08 of the crazy things happening in the world today. 43:12 The idea of 43:15 there are people and there's God 43:18 and there is no similarity. And so you have 43:24 we please God, we're doing something to please God. 43:29 The world isn't done like that. 43:32 The world's going to hate us. 43:34 Yeah. And so it was it was just part of 43:39 the the things that have been speaking to me when I first 43:42 started to study 43:44 the bible in 1992, 43:47 the first text that jumped out at me and I don't know why it's 43:52 it's not something you would think about. It would be a 43:54 first text to jump out at you, but I can do all things through 43:57 Christ who strengthens me able to pay its for 13. Now, that's 44:01 a favorite of so many people I talked to, but that's the first 44:05 one that spoke to me. 44:08 The other one need can be kind of surprised that to, you know, 44:12 John, 14, 15, if you love me, keep my Commandments. 44:19 Well, it's just some of the things the Lord has been 44:20 working with me on personally. 44:25 And so 44:27 when you look at those Texas, I can tell you from the things 44:30 the Lord to show me 44:32 that there is so much more 44:35 to those texts than just the way people looking. And and if 44:39 you love me, keep my commandments. But yes, you're 44:42 okay. You want to go to church on SEP? 44:46 I don't swear. 44:49 You know, all these things that you say. I treat my parents 44:52 well, and when they were alive, 44:55 don't lie. All of these things off for good got an act. 44:59 I'm going to have and have gotten life. 45:02 But that's not it at all. 45:05 We can keep God's Commandments except a pair 45:10 and it's what's in our brain in our head that what we deal 45:15 with. And in reality, we say heart but heart and brain are 45:21 basically connected run. So it's what's up there. 45:25 So 45:26 do we keep God's Commandments and our hearts in our minds? 45:31 And do we really do that? And and yeah, and so these are 45:35 the things that have been on me on my mind. The Lord 45:42 has been working with me for a year longer than that on the 45:46 latest project for a year. And 45:51 for most of my life, 45:54 I was believed in God and I got real man dead in one eye. 45:57 We discovered that he burn centers forever. And now, 46:02 you know, I got really mad at that decided I wasn't going to 46:05 follow him. 46:07 And so I shook my fist at him, said I'll never follow you. 46:12 And then I discovered the new age got the one where the God 46:16 gave us all the lives we ever wanted. I was going on have I 46:21 didn't live this life right now. That's OK, I got another 46:24 one. I got 5 more, 50 more 100 more to non hand. So that was 46:30 OK 46:32 in it. I thought at the time I don't want to leave it. And 46:37 that's OK, because that's not going to be right. But that's 46:40 what I thought at the time. 46:42 But it took some challenges and problems in my life to make me 46:46 open to the Lord and in my life from a kid all the way up to my 46:54 adulthood, I had questions. Why did this happen? Why did 46:57 that happen? 46:58 [MUSIC] 47:02 And a year ago, the Lord 47:05 out of nowhere, 47:08 he didn't say sit down, son. I got some to tell you. 47:11 He didn't say get ready. He gave me the answer 47:15 and the answer wasn't anything. I thought it was 47:19 nothing. Absolutely nothing. But I knew it was truth as soon 47:23 as I heard it. 47:25 And so I praise him for that. And I'm learning so much to God 47:31 as he got his taking me through my life and saying, see this, 47:34 see this to this. 47:36 I said rather not. I'd rather not remember some of that. 47:41 >> But that's what he's a he's been doing. Praise God for 47:45 hands and praise. Praise God for the gift of salvation camps 47:48 on the Internet works with the U.S. yes teaches us and we 47:52 grow. We're going to transition here in just a moment. But 47:54 Seattle want to give you an opportunity is or scriptures 47:57 and you want to show my favorite sound month when 2 are 48:01 lumped into bomb but they can get the militia and to use and 48:06 >> on for a bomb. A a slick. It said I want is are you can 48:11 import paying in may 48:13 and it's sealed it in court. Each fought in. 48:16 >> People what this does. You probably know someone. 48:19 21. That's a message to Israel 48:24 and 48:26 that starts off high will lift up my eyes to the hills from 48:30 whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord who made 48:34 the heavens and the earth. He will not allow your foot to 48:38 be moved. 48:39 He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who keeps 48:45 [MUSIC] 48:47 he. Who keeps Greg. 48:49 He keeps dandy a van she had to. 48:53 [MUSIC] 48:56 He's real. He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor 49:00 sleep. The Lord is your keeper. The Lord is your shade at your 49:05 right hand. So sunshine not strike you by day nor the moon 49:09 by night. The Lord shall preserve you from all evil. 49:13 He shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve. 49:17 You're going out and you're coming in from this time forth 49:21 and even for evermore 49:23 did someone. 21 and what it comes. It is if you the Lord 49:28 Lord. 49:30 >> Knows us. Yes, people love. They love both of you next. 49:32 Thank you again for being a part of the 3. A B and family 49:35 will bless him. Happy Thanksgiving to you both. 49:38 And we're going to trade out again. 49:40 >> And Jeff and Charlotte adore are coming in right now. 49:43 Jeff, of course, is our director of 3ABN plan giving 49:46 and trust services. That's kind of a mouthful and Charlotte. 49:50 His wife works with him out. 49:51 >> Well, look so Thanksgiving. He does a good job dressing us 49:56 does. Haha. Haha. Yeah. Happy Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving. 50:02 Love. You know, sun just such a privilege to work together in 50:05 minutes. Travis the. 50:06 >> It is a privilege. Absolutely Sunday. 50:10 >> Yeah, I think again, always about your story and they have 50:12 again, how God led in your lives is perfect. Timing 50:16 brought in connection with 3ABN our local church. You had no 50:19 idea. No plans to work for the ministry of 3, 8, and of course 50:22 supported it. Yeah. And then got open that opportunity and 50:24 you stepped right in and have done and are doing a great job. 50:27 Praise the Lord gives it to. 50:29 >> It has been quite a transition that has Charlotte 50:32 said yes, 50:34 I took and was kind of wandering around for 40 years, 50:37 kind of like Moses in the wilderness for 40 years living 50:40 in the world and doing the world. But during that time, 50:43 he was preparing me mentally and physically for the position 50:47 that he had said 50:49 for me in advance. And so here are 3ABN is truly been a 50:53 blessing. We have met so many wonderful souls and said some 50:57 support this ministry and its amazing so many of them. 51:02 How so humble of possessions just like the little on the 2 51:07 mites. Yeah. But then how the Lord will take care and blast 51:11 multiple in Baltimore. I meant to cement its lead and centers 51:15 saying you actually started watching first, right? Right. 51:19 >> And we'll have a receptive was hated. We get will it 51:22 first? He thought, oh, dear. Haha subdue him. But to praise 51:28 the lord and a bit. 51:30 >> Yes, I kept telling the things I was listening 51:33 learning. And 51:34 >> and what about coming? The chairs to have a hard time 51:37 getting him to come to church would be a little bit. But I 51:40 told him I I just had to go. And and I was going to go by 51:43 myself. So I think he decided no, we've we've been together 51:49 all our lives almost 48. We don't know what kind of 51:51 people those are there. We better a better time and 51:54 protect and make sure make sure they're on the open up. 51:57 Exactly. And I appreciate my head said that that he has. 52:00 We have been high school sweethearts like, yeah, 48 52:03 years near the air each and the great we've raised our 3 52:07 children together. And we have that's one of our to a grand 52:11 children are all grown up now. And we've been very blessed by 52:16 the Lord. And and it's very important that we have the 52:20 large in our lives as it makes all the difference. All the 52:23 difference and there. 52:25 >> Yes, the u N go ahead. I was just going to say with 52:29 something this last year that stood out to you. 52:32 Something learned lesson said something cause Tonya. 52:36 >> How some people 52:38 hed love this ministry with their whole heart month and 52:42 want to take and bless it in times of good times and bad 52:47 had just like recently has Lady 52:50 Call in her home. She's not able to repair the home that 52:55 she has has a trust with us watch to take and give the home 52:59 to 3 ABN, but her finances and her health is such now that 53:04 she's having to go to assisted living, have to sell her home 53:08 to, you know, for that, it's just it's amazing how people 53:14 love the ministry, love the Lord and want to support it. 53:18 You know, Matthew 9.37, says that the harvest is plentiful, 53:23 but the labors are and where and where are they? And, 53:26 you know, now that we're labor's who, you know, we were 53:29 out there wandering around lost. We were part of the 53:33 harvest for a long time. But now we're all or part of 53:38 the labors union. 53:40 >> Right to do a great job because most of the love people 53:43 and it's obvious. And so when you people have questions and 53:48 they talk to you, you can tell right away you have a 53:50 relationship with the Lord. Yeah, and it helps to build 53:54 trust, but the people. So all of us here so thankful for you 53:59 and Charlie are for both of you for your dedication to the Lord 54:03 and to the ministry and the church here, you know, to 54:08 the bill church south of the absolutely.

I'm not even 54:29 sure if it wasn't for sale but that was the first communion 54:32 first can. Yeah. 54:33 >> I I remember that day was coming in and I think you did 54:37 it seem like the foot washing before. So that was like 54:40 totally new. And because you asked the question. So how does 54:43 this worker haha? Yes, yeah. Wind participating communion 54:49 several times that are other churches. How of course, 54:51 never in that manner. And. 54:53 >> Yeah, that was so that was a tremendous blessing for me 54:57 because it it really it talked some important facts about the 55:02 humility that we need to have it. 55:05 And I I was so thankful that Greg was so kind to kind of 55:11 tell us what was going on and to help us a little bit. 55:15 And I'll never forget that.

At first it took a lot of 55:56 a lot of prayer and thought, 55:59 but, 56:01 you know, it says that he he qualifies the cold, doesn't 56:05 calls qualify. Whenever the Lord speaks to your heart and 56:10 your calls 56:12 if you don't take and respond to his call.

But I have the time to think about what am I reading 01:02:46 now? And I just picked the first this along humans chapter 01:02:52 5 and the verse 16. 01:02:56 >> It's very short, says rejoice, always 01:03:00 down 01:03:02 for 17 straight days without ceasing 01:03:07 and then. 01:03:08 >> Versus a team and everything give thanks for this is God's 01:03:14 will for you in Christ, Jesus. And so I remember that I 01:03:20 memorize those and every morning when I wake up. 01:03:26 >> A set of a jumping the bad. I just to stay there, praying 01:03:30 and thinking God for one more day. And that has we don't know 01:03:35 what day it is up for that day. But we know that God will be 01:03:40 with the U.S.. And so I pray there around. And then I think 01:03:46 him for all the things that he has given me so the days before 01:03:51 for my family. Yeah, before the work that I do here for the 01:03:55 people now work with me, you you had. How important is it to 01:04:01 meet the dire and yes, Steph. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And then Linda, 01:04:06 3ABN for us. Also, 01:04:10 this is a blessing. This is a Thanksgiving and to me is a 01:04:15 that praise report for the ability to work with the people 01:04:19 that to have a common goal to his friend to the 3 Angels 01:04:23 message. This is not what we want is not what each one 01:04:28 wants, but we pull together with the different assets, 01:04:34 different knowledge, ma and different ideas but and down 01:04:41 that wind and of the day, we have a common idea now that we 01:04:45 resolve problems. We face machines a week while we fix a 01:04:49 cameras, we so recorded programs for the friends say 01:04:54 and all of that is for the glory of God. And all of that 01:04:59 is for seeking a law so that we can count one more and the 01:05:05 kingdom of heaven. So it is a blessing to be able to praise 01:05:11 God because 01:05:14 we try to teach and the French people because they don't know 01:05:18 what that Thanksgiving is, right. They don't have a 01:05:22 Thanksgiving and counted the Canadians French and they don't 01:05:26 know what Thanksgiving is. 01:05:29 But we explaining that the it's a day not to just to be 01:05:34 thankful by. So we are thankful average day and we are but is a 01:05:40 special day that though we get together this and is a blessing 01:05:45 to be able to not only to be thankful every day, but to take 01:05:50 this time to pause and those who recognize what God has done 01:05:56 for prying eyes. 01:05:57 >> It is been a tremendous, tremendous asset to this 01:06:00 menace. Yes, for you. And previously Clarence Larson. 01:06:06 >> I have been out with a megaphone on the field, put her 01:06:10 days about 100 yards.

You can get anything 01:13:25 out there with a just and so what a blessing to put that 01:13:27 giant 8 foot, 10 foot bishop. And then Dunn had no idea that 01:13:31 and working at the ministry, mister Danny, so many years 01:13:34 later. And then there you all to join in your retired years, 01:13:37 though, it seems like you're busier than ever said and 01:13:39 system privilege. A bill to work in ministry with with both 01:13:42 of you. 01:13:44 >> Very, very blessed in Q. How is it for you seeing Greg 01:13:47 in the position that he's in now? How how do you feel about 01:13:52 his role here at 3 here? 01:13:55 >> Well, it's quite different. I mean, he's in a suit. 01:13:57 Everything I'm used to haha working with him, you know, 01:14:03 farming or, you know, tractors and all that kind of a totally 01:14:06 different and so would cut out of character. I understand the 01:14:11 minutes to play like that. So it's fun. I enjoyed that. 01:14:14 And it's neat to see what the large done as the member Danny 01:14:18 Way back. You know, coming to one of the meetings way back. 01:14:21 And you know, you 01:14:23 anyway, it was kind of neat to watch because I didn't know 01:14:25 about television, the where the call is going to tell. People 01:14:28 want to come on the estate managers agents. But it was 01:14:32 just kind of still remember. I don't know, probably I don't 01:14:35 know how many years, but you are just pretty new here. 01:14:37 So never watching at home while there's a pretty neat to see 01:14:40 all this going on and stuff like that. And you're always so 01:14:42 humble and such a blessing me with this new. You're part of 01:14:46 that show. Yeah. Having part of ministry, what's 01:14:50 >> was the lower been showing you were this past year? 01:14:53 Scripture, something that sticks out to both of you. 01:14:55 [MUSIC] 01:14:58 >> The large taught me something just a couple weeks 01:15:00 ago went on a trip back to WREG live for 6 years in 01:15:05 Massachusetts. And I have a 01:15:09 physically mentally challenge, handicap sister there. 01:15:13 And so we Dan and I are guardians now that my parents 01:15:16 had passed. And so we had the privilege to go through her 01:15:19 records from way back when she was admitted to a facility that 01:15:23 we care for her. 01:15:24 And I always kind of was angry at my parents for years, 01:15:28 sending her away cause. I was 12. And 01:15:32 so I didn't understand. And we didn't communicate a whole lot 01:15:35 together. Just happened. So to go through the records 01:15:39 and to read the letters that my mother wrote to the caregivers 01:15:43 to see the doctors reports on the condition of my sister. 01:15:48 Yeah, again, nice and Amy empathy that I never had for 01:15:52 one mom and dad. I understood I was a good was going there to 01:15:56 get closure and to put these pieces of my puzzle together. 01:16:00 But I then I say, you know, Jesus, he's touched with the 01:16:03 feelings of our infirmities, your skis watching it with us 01:16:08 understanding. And and now I can say, OK, mom and dad, 01:16:12 you did the best you could with what you had and what was 01:16:15 available. And I understand. Yeah. So I just I'm just 01:16:20 thankful that the Lord brought that I have empathy, not just 01:16:23 sympathy but empathy. 01:16:25 >> No, that is power, folks. I'm just thinking about we get 01:16:28 to heaven, right? And we'll look back and say, wow, I 01:16:30 understand now that summer's customers questions in this 01:16:33 Earth like I don't know the answer. Maybe some of your home 01:16:36 like I don't understand. But all I know is God is true. 01:16:40 God is faithful. Hang on to him. Then we'll all be made 01:16:43 plain. It will all be made clear our name. 01:16:46 >> Yes. So we want to come and you all for the the it great 01:16:50 job. You did. You know, in training and children. Yeah, 01:16:53 raise. And then a Bible says train up a child in the way 01:16:55 should go on and so did not depart from it. And Greg was 01:16:59 special from that time. 08:00AM here because he had a heart. 01:17:03 He had a servant's heart and not everybody does. And you 01:17:07 notice that he's not willing. He didn't say, oh, well, 01:17:10 I'll do this, but now not going to work over here or no. 01:17:14 That's not mend my job description. I know that came 01:17:17 from you all and get them out sides. And now we don't attract 01:17:21 an hour that I would now you're going to go do the guard and 01:17:24 now you're going to go do this and that I know that because I 01:17:26 had a dad who is just like a, you know, down just like, 01:17:30 yeah, yeah, dad, just like that. So I'm known to have 01:17:34 parents. So what you've done and that the CG planted in, 01:17:38 then God knew from all along, they Greg in jail would be 01:17:41 together as a modern, incredible couple for the Lord 01:17:45 and dynamic what they do. But most of all, it's their 01:17:49 love for Jesus and their love for the gospel and they're not 01:17:53 compromising. As you know, Greg can be kind of quiet out 01:17:57 whatever Greg become quiet, but he knows exactly where he's 01:18:02 going to go, where the ministry needs to go and he's not going 01:18:05 to the right or the left from people or Sunday. But you 01:18:08 should do this or do that. He's very nice to them. We 01:18:11 still want to look straight ahead and does what needs to be 01:18:14 done. And I respect about in jail to both of you. And they 01:18:18 do incredible. Incredible. It's call where a care because 01:18:22 just ministry team and I tell people this is 39.

So thank you. 01:18:53 Thanks for the privilege. 01:18:55 >> Yeah, I just consider I'm a broken person and got worked in 01:18:58 spite of a so yeah. 01:19:00 >> What about you down on your heart? Well, you know, I had my 01:19:04 little thing here to prepared when I was thinking about what 01:19:07 Valerie said. I still remember, we went to you all's wedding in 01:19:12 2000. The new to 01:19:18 valley had been 01:19:20 able to see her little sister Sarah near you. She was looking 01:19:24 forward to having a sister. She was and I was about 12 01:19:27 years old. And then, you know, she had little sister 01:19:31 and that makes me tired. I grew up in the retired 01:19:34 brother. He was an institution. 01:19:36 So we were meant for each other. 01:19:38 >> Anyway, so 01:19:41 >> I was so yeah, I don't caught this. So you had a 01:19:44 family member that was struggling mentally new did 2. 01:19:46 You had a brother that? 01:19:47 >> Yeah, brother the sister. So I remember and is a 01:19:51 registered nurse. And so I remember watching what they 01:19:54 were doing in caring for her sister was in Massachusetts. 01:19:57 They do a lot of care for Natalie Challenge people and 01:20:01 r******* physically, too. So 01:20:04 I remember, Valerie, I'm seeing her sister for a pension for a 01:20:08 long time and then I saw a turnaround. Watch what I was 01:20:13 doing. She was holding her sister and she was crying. 01:20:16 Wow. 01:20:19 >> Haha. Remember thinking, wow, that's a brawl. R******* 01:20:23 as far as understanding God's love and her sister didn't 01:20:26 understand that. 01:20:27 >> I'm not allowed to speak more now from Valerie. Yeah, 01:20:32 that's good. Couldn't comprehend. And so help me. 01:20:35 God is love in this club last and we don't comprehend. 01:20:39 So we're actually heartache and recognizing the lot of you. 01:20:43 That's why my hers was removed that twins. 01:20:48 >> Yeah.

Happen to pinch myself that we are where we are just 01:21:47 like unbelievable Ris have. 01:21:48 >> The couple were happy to sorry. I didn't know if I'm in 01:21:52 the closing minutes. Moments here, the Thanksgiving special 01:21:55 program, Mister Danny Doctor von, What's on your heart? 01:21:59 >> Slogan this morning when I was having my devotions alor 01:22:03 led me to this really appropriate devotional thought 01:22:06 it was about 01:22:08 Luke 17 versus 11, 2, 16, I think and it has to do with the 01:22:16 lepers and that there were 10 letters that were cleansed. 01:22:23 9 of them went on and one of them return. Yes. And so thank 01:22:29 you. We take things for granted so much. Yes side does for us. 01:22:34 We can respond either by ignoring him, which is in 01:22:39 gratitude or we can respond to him with gratitude that leads 01:22:44 us to worship him. And so 01:22:48 my goal this to try to not take that for granted because 01:22:55 there's some little things that we just don't acknowledge. 01:22:59 But he does so much for us that everything he does for us. 01:23:04 We should 01:23:06 the lead to worship. Why is it? So it's all about worship. 01:23:10 One other quick thing helped take your time. My on passed 01:23:15 away about in 1965 01:23:20 and I was very close to her. And 01:23:24 recently 01:23:26 my husband had taped a documentary on the the 01:23:29 Kennedys. I love learning more about the Kennedys and stop 01:23:32 sitting there watching the documentary. And this woman is 01:23:36 being interviewed is one of those men men in the street 01:23:38 things. You know, they are set in New York City, a lot of 01:23:41 people and I law. 01:23:44 So it's my cow was. 01:23:47 >> That I had not seen why she died at 30 to 30 for 35. 01:23:52 So this is the year before so that the document in 63 moments 01:23:57 on and on the one that the law are allowed to see it. 01:24:00 >> Because I was the oldest. She died leaving 3 children. 01:24:04 And 01:24:05 >> I'm just so great. Beautiful. By the way, the gun 01:24:07 safety issues. All eyesight on was a compliment. But she gave 01:24:12 us this hug is a family here to just say, oh, here she is. 01:24:16 >> And my cousin said to me, do you realize when you sent it to 01:24:20 me, it was an anniversary of her death. Oh, I didn't realize 01:24:24 that he does. So the Lord I just gave us that gift. So I'm 01:24:28 so grateful. And he gave our family and other gifts. But on 01:24:32 Joe, my model after my dad and she's a gift as well. So just 01:24:37 so grateful to the law for all that he's done. 01:24:39 >> And for my wonderful I was like a little hug for on site 01:24:43 place. Thank you, Lord, for Saving Essos. That's correct. 01:24:46 Yes. 01:24:48 >> Saying, you know. 01:24:51 >> We're saying my 01:24:56 one thing to. 01:25:00 >> 0, 2, 01:25:05 >> To do. 01:25:10 >> Word to. 01:25:16 >> So. 01:25:23 >> 2. 01:25:26 >> To mine. 01:25:31 >> You know? 01:25:45 >> 2, 0, 2, 0, 2, 01:25:52 >> Okay. Show so. 01:25:59 >> 3 to a man. Thank you. And thank you so much at home 01:26:05 for all you do for the cause of God and for your support, 01:26:08 financial support for a full support. 3ABN, as we endeavor 01:26:13 to take this great gospel of the kingdom into all the world, 01:26:16 we're thankful that you would take your time out this 01:26:19 Thanksgiving and then join us. Our home is your home, as they 01:26:23 say. And so again, thank you for joining hands with us. 01:26:27 We know Jesus is coming very soon. We all get to look say 01:26:31 low. This is our God whom we've waited for his. Come to say 01:26:35 this is a member of the Lord for the 10, what's on your 01:26:38 heart makes a save on 34 taste the Lord. See that he is good. 01:26:43 >> What a great God we serve. And we've got a man 01:26:46 appreciation much. Tim Mike, you much for being a brother in 01:26:49 Christ. Thank you for letting me be a part of this. Family 01:26:52 and leisure are much less a bit on your heart journal. 01:26:58 >> I actually put a couple things. Stand the rain. 01:27:02 This is been the year 01:27:05 of learning about myself. 01:27:09 >> And a couple things I wrote down, 01:27:12 this is being transparent and authentic, but I don't know. 01:27:16 Maybe you'll notice at home to maybe 01:27:20 some of this might resonate with you. 01:27:23 I learned that I don't always like people 01:27:26 and that it's only got. 01:27:29 >> Who can put his love in my heart for people. You know, 01:27:33 Romans 5, 5, says God sheds abroad. His love in our hearts 01:27:39 by the power of the Holy Spirit. 01:27:42 I learned of that that my motives, 01:27:46 we are not always pure. You know, sometimes we do the right 01:27:50 thing. But for the wrong reason 01:27:53 and I learned I need to pray anew. 01:27:57 >> Some one. 39. 23 in money for search me o Kohn in. 01:28:02 Oh my. 01:28:04 >> Our try me that word in Hebrew is investigate. Check me 01:28:08 out. Try me and know my thoughts and see those wicked 01:28:12 ways and means where those motives are. Sure are where God 01:28:16 wants me to change. He wants me to surrender something to 01:28:22 himself. 01:28:24 I learned that I don't have the love for souls that I got 01:28:31 and I want in this new year. God gives me a deeper love for 01:28:36 other people. Give me a love for souls. It's easy to have a 01:28:41 love for your friends. Are your family or your co-workers, 01:28:45 you your neighbors. 01:28:48 But do we have a love for souls for those all the way around 01:28:51 the world are strangers are those that we've never met her? 01:28:54 Maybe people we don't naturally like 01:28:58 I learned that coming apart. 01:29:02 >> Is essential for ministry. You can keep going in ministry 01:29:09 without time alone. 01:29:11 >> Time alone with Jesus. He time alone with your spouse. 01:29:16 Time alone, with family 01:29:19 time alone in cots for because if you don't have that time, 01:29:27 you don't have anything to get. 01:29:28 >> Cause you can take or you try. 01:29:33 So we have to come back to the source and next she says and 01:29:38 let him. 01:29:40 >> Fill us back up again. 01:29:44 I would say the last thing. Well, there's many more. 01:29:47 But last thing shares intentionality be intentional 01:29:51 about moments. Moments with the PPA loved the most moments with 01:29:58 God. I take time 01:30:01 for what really matters. 01:30:03 >> He's those are some of the things that our work and then 01:30:07 my life for what about, you know, it's authentic. We thank 01:30:11 you for sharing. You know, I think a lot of people, you 01:30:12 know, can resonate, you know, with that. And I just have to 01:30:15 tell you, that's a blessing to be in ministry with, you know, 01:30:17 we've been here. We're just pastor 21st wedding 01:30:20 anniversary. All right. And yeah, just so thankful for Jill 01:30:24 and what a blessing she is said to me and to be in ministry 01:30:27 together, like you've talked about all day today and what a 01:30:30 blessing the minister together with with you. And I just want 01:30:33 to say 01:30:34 for for you at home, you know, there's a there's a scripture 01:30:38 that to him 01:30:39 spoken to me in a says it's from someone 7, 1, 2, is says 01:30:44 give thanks unto the Lord for he is good 01:30:49 for his mercy endures for ever verse to says. 01:30:55 >> Let the read aimed of the Lord. Be quiet. Say so you can 01:31:03 hear you at home says lead 3 games of the Lord saying so 01:31:08 that means speak to either 01:31:11 whom he had 3 D from the hand of the enemy. 01:31:16 There's something to be said like we talked about earlier. 01:31:18 I think it was the first hour about speaking the praises to 01:31:21 God. And I just have to tell you this pass year for me. 01:31:24 I appreciate this faith journey of 3, A B and I've heard the 01:31:28 stories of Mister Danny talking about how God provides for the 01:31:31 needs of the ministry just in the nick of time, what actually 01:31:35 be 01:31:36 in this role and to be living that out. It takes it to 01:31:38 another perspective. And so June died this past year, 01:31:42 especially talking about being intentional with the Lord or 01:31:45 like God, 01:31:46 you know, it's in the bank, you know the bills and Lord, 01:31:50 we praise you for how you're going to provide for this 01:31:53 ministry. We don't just say it internally. We speak it. 01:31:57 We say so. We say Lord, thank you in advance, right? And that 01:32:01 day, maybe the money didn't quite come in. We expected, 01:32:03 but the next day it does. But God continues to provide. 01:32:06 And that just passed like Mister Danny said the 39th 01:32:09 anniversary of 3. Again, incredible. This is a miracle 01:32:14 faith-based ministry and the Holy Spirit is used to all of 01:32:18 these years to pour into the ministry funds, prayers for the 01:32:21 ministry. 3 been we continue to go forward and to grow. And I 01:32:25 have to tell you, I am so excited about next year. 01:32:28 You know, God has amazing things. We have our plans. 01:32:31 There are so many opportunities that are just on our doorstep 01:32:33 for 03:08PM, God's going provide the needs. We don't 01:32:37 have a new worry about. That guy continues to provide. 01:32:40 And I have to tell you, we look at the world in the chaos. 01:32:42 That's in it. There's a lot of worry. There's a lot of stress, 01:32:45 a lot of chaos, but 3 ad and to me is a beacon of light, 01:32:49 a certain to be and of hope. A beacon of encouragement to a 01:32:52 world that is soon wrapping up. Jesus Christ is coming soon. 01:32:56 So blessed the faithful. I'm just so excited and so 01:32:59 thankful for you. I'm thankful for the Lord Paper for My 01:33:01 family. So it's West, Mister Danny. Tim, 01:33:05 you've got to do is the song Good. You know what it is? 01:33:08 I have to ask.

Actually. Let's not only the 01:33:45 typical not that great smile, rock prog rock play, but it was 01:33:49 bad alive and he didn't. He couldn't tell. 01:33:53 She said that's good. Don't eat that. 01:33:57 If you by chance have 01:34:01 forgotten. 01:34:04 God tastes like, okay. Come on. 01:34:08 That's the main room.

That's why I say that. 01:38:29 Heres Connor, our so thankful to the Lord Jesus Christ. 01:38:33 That's right. Amount of wonder. There are people here today 01:38:36 that there there's still as we talked about earlier, people 01:38:40 just joining us. Maybe they've turned on only 5 minutes ago 01:38:43 and Tim started and they say what's this all about? Yeah, 01:38:46 and this is about getting a piece and enjoy the past. 01:38:50 That all understanding there's only one way to do it and 01:38:53 that's to the Lord Jesus Christ and and crucified and 01:38:56 surrendering our lives to the Lord. So I don't know if you 01:39:00 want to talk to somebody at home and then maybe you can 01:39:02 pray and we'll go out here in just a few minutes. I can leave 01:39:06 your time is all gone. And then here with you and you stay with 01:39:09 us. Thank you so much. A year, but an incredible spiritual 01:39:13 base we've had today. Thank you. 01:39:17 >> There's a scripture and song. It's one. 25. 01:39:23 Yeah, I would like to share its you because it's 01:39:29 it says that the Lord is the strength of his people. It says 01:39:32 those who trust in the Lord like Mount Zion, which cannot 01:39:36 be moved, but abides for ever as the mountains surround 01:39:41 Jerusalem. So the lord surround says people from this time 01:39:46 forth and forever so know that whatever you're going through 01:39:50 today, you are so rounded strewn by the Lord. He is 01:39:54 before you. He's behind you. He is beside you there. You are 01:39:59 surrounded by him. And so you don't have to work because you 01:40:02 will be moved as long as you abide in him. That's the key. 01:40:08 That's what keeps us anchored to the rock and then out 01:40:13 sooner. 01:40:15 That is the lock. And he is our lock and so we can stay 01:40:20 connected to him. If we abide in him, pray. Don't let your 01:40:25 heart be trouble. Just believe in God and hold on to his 01:40:29 promises. Promises are true. And there's some of you are 01:40:33 mothers who whose children are not walking with the Lord. 01:40:37 I want to tell you, just keep praying for them. Don't give 01:40:41 off good and don't give up because God is working on them. 01:40:46 He's working on them round the clock when you don't see it. 01:40:49 So no would you might have a wayward husband. You might have 01:40:52 children that are not walking with the Lord. Other family 01:40:56 members and friends don't give up. Hold on resolve. Be 01:41:00 intentional. Like Joel said, hold on 01:41:04 2 home, you know, 01:41:07 to be the saviour and he will not let you down. He will 01:41:11 surround you. 01:41:13 >> And then, yeah, thank you to take. 01:41:16 >> I've been blessed. Yes.
