WELCOME TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" 00:34 WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH. 00:36 I'M LONNIE MELASHENKO YOUR HOST AND I'M LYNELLE ELLIS 00:39 CO HOSTING. 00:40 AND WE ARE DOUBLING THEIR PLEASURE, DOUBLING THEIR 00:43 FUN BY HAVING TWO HOSTS TODAY BECAUSE WE HAVE A 00:45 VERY SPECIAL TELECAST FOR YOU. 00:47 BY THE WAY, GOSPEL OUTREACH IS ALL ABOUT THE 00:50 GREAT GOSPEL COMMISSION. 00:51 JESUS GAVE IT IN MATTHEW 24:14 AND MATTHEW 28:19, 00:56 20 WHERE HE SAID, AND THIS IS ESPECIALLY SIGNIFICANT 01:00 FOR THOSE OF US WHO LIVE IN THE WESTERN WORLD, A 01:02 LOT OF CHRISTIANS. 01:03 "GO YE THEREFORE INTO ALL THE WORLD." 01:06 THAT INCLUDES THE 10/40 WINDOW WHERE 97 PERCENT OF 01:12 THE PEOPLE OF THE BILLIONS WHO LIVE THERE, DON'T HAVE 01:15 A CLUE ABOUT JESUS. 01:17 WE'RE GOING TO BE GOING INTO THAT WINDOW TODAY. 01:19 SO WHO ARE OUR GUESTS? 01:21 OUR GUESTS ARE DEL AND BONNIE ORSER AND THE PART 01:24 OF THE 10/40 WINDOW THAT WE'RE GOING TO VISIT WITH 01:28 YOU TODAY IS INDIA. 01:30 AND WE ARE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO WHAT YOU ARE 01:33 GOING TO SHARE WITH US FROM THIS REGION OF THE 01:35 WORLD, A VERY IMPORTANT PLACE FILLED WITH LOTS OF 01:39 PEOPLE THAT GOD LOVES DEARLY. 01:40 I KNOW YOU HAVE SOME VIDEO TO SHARE WITH US, SOME 01:43 PICTURES AND REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING 01:45 ABOUT IT. 01:46 THANK YOU FOR INVITING US. 01:50 GLAD YOU'RE HERE. 01:51 BONNIE, WHY DON'T YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE 01:54 VIDEO THAT WE ARE GOING TO SEE. 01:55 OK. 01:56 WHEN WE WENT TO INDIA THIS LAST JANUARY-FEBRUARY PART 01:58 OF OUR ASSIGNMENT WAS TO LOOK FOR STORIES OF WHAT 02:01 OUR BIBLE WORKERS WERE DOING. 02:03 AND THIS STORY IS QUITE AN INTENSE STORY ABOUT ONE OF 02:07 OUR BIBLE WORKERS IN THE SOUTH RAYALASEEMA SECTION 02:10 NEAR KADAPA. 02:11 AND IT'S A LITTLE GRAPHIC. 02:15 IN FACT PARENTS MAY NOT WANT THEIR CHILDREN TO SEE 02:19 THIS. 02:20 IT HAS TO DO WITH A VERY VERY TERRIBLE MOTORCYCLE 02:24 WRECK AND HOW OUR BIBLE WORKER SHARED JESUS AND 02:28 THE FAMILY CAME TO KNOW HIM. 02:30 SO WE JUST MIGHT TELL OUR AUDIENCE, AS I OFTEN TELL 02:33 THEM, BUCKLE UP YOUR SEAT BELT. 02:36 HERE WE GO. 02:37 (MUSIC PLAYING, VOICES IN BACKGROUND, BIRDS 07:50 (MUSIC PLAYING) JESUS SAYS, HOW BEAUTIFUL ON THE 07:53 MOUNTAINS ARE THE FEET OF THOSE TO BRING THE GOOD 07:56 NEWS OF THE GOSPEL. 07:59 I STAND HERE TODAY BEFORE THE ORDER OF BEAUTIFUL 08:02 FEET BECAUSE YOU'RE A PART OF THAT WONDERFUL 08:05 COMMISSION THAT'S MENTIONED IN THE OLD 08:07 TESTAMENT AND THE NEW AND PAUL TALKS ABOUT IT IN 08:08 ROMANS. 08:09 HOW BEAUTIFUL UPON THE MOUNTAINS ARE THE FEET OF 08:12 THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS, GOOD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY. 08:15 THAT WAS A POWERFUL STORY. 08:17 IT WAS HARD TO LOOK AT HIM WHEN HIS HEAD WAS SO 08:19 SEVERELY INJURED KNOWING HE LIVES IN A CULTURE 08:21 WHERE HE DOESN'T HAVE ACCESS TO 911 AND A QUICK 08:24 HOSPITAL. 08:25 DID HE MAKE IT? 08:26 IS HE OK? 08:27 YES, THAT WAS HIM BEING DOCTORED WITH ALOVERA 08:29 PLANT. 08:30 I MET THEM. 08:31 I WAS IN THEIR HOME. 08:33 DID HE BECOME ONE OF OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS? 08:35 NO. 08:36 HE IS JUST A MEMBER. 08:37 BUT THE PERSON WHO WAS MINISTERING TO HIM WAS A 08:39 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER. 08:41 YES. 08:42 THAT IS WHAT THE BLESSING OF A LITTLE BIT OF MEDICAL 08:45 TRAINING DOES FOR THEM. 08:46 AND WE TALKED ABOUT THAT LAST TIME THAT WE JUST NOT 08:49 ONLY GO AND TRAIN THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS 08:51 BUT NOW AS WE SENSE THAT THE DOORS MIGHT BE CLOSING 08:52 A LITTLE MORE TIGHTLY THAT THEY ARE GETTING SOME 08:55 MEDICAL TRAINING TO DO BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS AND 08:58 HELP THE PEOPLE PHYSICALLY DO BETTER. 09:03 THAT IS A MARVELOUS TESTIMONY. 09:04 NOW HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS MINISTRY 09:07 BECAUSE YOU WERE RETIRED AND YOU COULD HAVE JUST 09:09 SAT DOWN AND TWIDDLED YOUR THUMBS AND HAD ROASTED 09:12 MARSHMALLOWS, ENJOYED SOME VIDEOS. 09:15 BUT YOU DECIDED TO STEP OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE 09:17 AND GO OVER TO INDIA. 09:18 HOW MANY YEARS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED? 09:20 WELL ACTUALLY IF I MAY TELL, WE STARTED IN 1996. 09:24 SINCE THEN WE HAVE BEEN ON 26 MISSION TRIPS 09:28 THROUGHOUT THE WORLD AND THE LAST 18 HAVE BEEN TO 09:32 INDIA. 09:32 IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU'RE GETTING MORE 09:34 EXCITED ABOUT THIS AS THE YEARS GO BY. 09:35 GOD HAS PUT A LOVE IN OUR HEARTS FOR THESE PEOPLE IN 09:39 INDIA. 09:39 WE CAN'T EXPLAIN IT. 09:41 YOU KNOW WE REALIZE JESUS SAID LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS I 09:45 HAVE LOVED YOU. 09:47 IT'S AN AMAZING STATEMENT. 09:48 IT CANNOT BE A SELF GENERATED LOVE. 09:51 IT'S ONLY AS WE SURRENDER TO THE LORD AND ALLOW HIM 09:53 TO LIVE IN OUR HEART CAN HE PUT THAT KIND OF LOVE 09:57 IN OUR HEARTS FOR OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS. 10:00 IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE YOU ALSO HAVE DISCOVERED THAT 10:03 IT ISN'T JUST GOING TO TEACH DOCTRINE. 10:05 IT'S NOT ABOUT SAYING SOMETHING OR COMMITTING TO 10:08 28 POINTS OF FAITH, IT'S ABOUT BEING JESUS CHRIST 10:12 AND HE USED THIS SPECIFIC TECHNIQUE IN HIS MINISTRY 10:14 DIDN'T HE. 10:15 THAT'S RIGHT. 10:16 AMEN. 10:17 NOW AS I WAS WATCHING THE VIDEO I WAS THINKING ABOUT 10:20 HOW MANY PEOPLES LIVES ARE AFFECTED BY WHAT'S GOING 10:24 ON WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH. 10:25 OBVIOUSLY YOURS HAS BEEN FOR ONE. 10:29 THINK OF THE BLESSING IT HAS BEEN TO YOU IN YOUR 10:32 OWN SPIRITUAL WALK. 10:33 THEN I'M THINKING OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS 10:36 THAT WE JUST SAW. 10:37 HE WAS GIVING HIS TESTIMONY ABOUT WHAT A 10:40 DIFFERENCE IT MADE FOR HIM AS HE WAS WANTING TO 10:43 CHANGE HIS LIFE, GIVE HIS LIVE OVER TO GOD, LOOKING 10:46 FOR WORK AND AN ANSWER TO HIS PRAYERS AND THEN WHAT 10:50 HE IS ABLE TO DO PASSING THAT ON TO PEOPLE IN HIS 10:53 VILLAGE AND IT JUST RIPPLES OUT FROM THERE. 10:57 THAT'S RIGHT. 10:57 EACH OF THESE IS A MIRACLE. 10:59 YES. 11:00 WE DON'T OFTEN SEE THE RAISING OF THE DEAD BUT WE 11:02 DO SEE THE RAISING OF THE SPIRITUALLY DEAD AND THOSE 11:05 THAT ARE PHYSICALLY HURTING. 11:06 JESUS CAME TO HEAL PEOPLE. 11:09 AND SO THIS IS A FULFILLMENT RIGHT IN OUR 11:11 DAY BEFORE OUR VERY EYES AND THIS IS SO EXCITING. 11:14 IT IS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TO GO WITH THE 11:16 BIBLE WORKERS INTO THE VILLAGE AND WALK WITH 11:19 THEM. 11:20 THE PEOPLE LOVE THEM, THEY HAVE MADE THESE 11:22 FRIENDSHIPS AND THAT IS WHAT GOSPEL OUTREACH IS 11:23 ABOUT IS HAVING OUR BIBLE WORKERS GO INTO THESE 11:24 VILLAGES AND START SMALL CHURCHES IN COMMUNITIES 11:26 AND SHARING JESUS. 11:27 AND THESE PEOPLE HAVE A SPIRITUAL BENT. 11:28 THEY WANT TO BE, THEY HAVE A DESIRE TO HAVE A LOVE 11:47 FOR JESUS. 11:48 THEY REALLY DO AND WANT TO KNOW ABOUT HIM. 11:51 SO IT REALLY IS FUN. 11:52 I ALWAYS SAY TO THESE BIBLE WORKERS, YOU DO THE 11:55 MOST IMPORTANT JOB IN THE WORLD AND YOU ARE ON THE 11:58 FRONT LINES FOR JESUS. 12:00 YES. 12:01 TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH. 12:02 THEY ARE THERE WHERE I CAN'T BE, LYNELLE CAN'T BE 12:05 THERE AND THEY ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT JESUS SAID. 12:09 GO OUT THERE AND BE ME. 12:12 SO OFTEN I HAVE PRAYED FOR THE GIFT OF TONGUES 12:15 BECAUSE THAT-WELL, I'M A LITTLE TALKY ANYWAY BUT 12:20 FOR US TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR A TRANSLATOR TO TRANSLATE 12:24 WHAT WE HAVE SAID AND THEN WE DON'T KNOW REALLY WHAT 12:26 THEY HAVE SAID SO IF THEY HAVE EVEN TRANSLATED IT 12:28 RIGHT. 12:29 SO IT'S A GROWING EXPERIENCE FOR ME. 12:32 SO THIS IS ANOTHER BIG PLUS FOR THAT INDIGENOUS 12:34 WORKER. 12:36 I WOULD GO THERE AND WOULD HAVE THE INTERRUPTION OF A 12:38 TRANSLATOR. 12:39 HE CAN NOT ONLY HEAR WHAT THEY ARE SAYING, HE CAN 12:42 EMPATHIZE WITH WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND HE CAN BE 12:44 THERE TO MINISTER LIKE HE WAS DOING THERE. 12:46 I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT PLANT WAS. 12:48 IT LOOKED TO ME LIKE CELERY BUT HE WAS GIVING 12:50 SOME SORT OF ALOE OR HEALING BALM FOR THAT 12:52 PATIENT TO RECOVER. 12:53 YES IT WAS ALOVERA. 12:55 YES, ALOVERA. 12:55 VERY GOOD. 12:56 I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING MORE ABOUT THIS. 13:00 I KNOW YOU ALSO HAVE SOME PICTURES TO SHARE WITH US. 13:03 WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A BREAK IN JUST A MOMENT BUT 13:06 BEFORE WE DO THAT I WANTED TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU CAN 13:09 RECEIVE ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS NEWSLETTER IN 13:12 YOUR HOME. 13:13 YOU CAN ASK US FOR IT BY CONTACTING US AT 13:16 GOAIM.ORG. 13:17 AND WE GET THIS AT OUR HOUSE. 13:20 I DO TO AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE STORIES 13:22 SOME OF WHICH WE CAN'T EVEN TELL ON AIR. 13:24 THEY ARE SO AMAZING, SO POWERFUL. 13:26 IT MIGHT ENDANGER THE PEOPLE WHO ARE THERE IF WE 13:29 WERE TO TELL ABOUT IT. 13:30 SO YOU GET BY WRITING FOR IT. 13:33 YES. 13:33 SO BE SURE TO ASK FOR THAT. 13:34 AND ALSO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE WE ARE COVETING 13:37 YOUR PRAYERS ON BEHALF OF GOSPEL OUTREACH. 13:40 AND WE CAN ALWAYS USE FINANCIAL DONATIONS AS 13:43 WELL. 13:44 SO PLEASE DO BE IN TOUCH WITH US AND WE'LL BE RIGHT 13:46 BACK IN JUST A MOMENT. 13:48 EARTH. 13:49 VAST, BEAUTIFUL, BUT TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AND YOU CAN 13:54 SEE THE PAIN OF A WORLD ON A COLLISION COURSE WITH 13:59 IT'S OWN GREED. 14:01 HUMANITY. 14:02 WE NEED LOVE. 14:04 WE NEED HOPE. 14:07 WE NEED A SAVIOR. 14:10 MORE THAN ONE THIRD OF THE WORLD'S SEVEN BILLION 14:13 PEOPLE STILL NEED TO HEAR ABOUT GOD'S LOVE AND HIS 14:17 PLAN TO SAVE US. 14:18 ONE THIRD. 14:20 IN SUCH A BIG WORLD IT'S EASY TO FEEL SMALL, BUT 14:26 YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 14:28 PARTNER WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH TO FUND BIBLE 14:31 WORKERS WHO ARE MISSIONARIES IN THEIR OWN 14:33 VILLAGES, TOWNS AND CITIES. 14:36 THEY SHARE THE LIFE CHANGING LOVE AND STORY OF 14:43 JESUS CHRIST. 14:44 THANK YOU FOR GIVING. 14:47 TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE SO THAT ALL THE 14:55 WORLD MAY KNOW JESUS. 14:58 AND IN THE 10/40 WINDOW THAT IS THE WHOLE PURPOSE 15:01 AND MISSION OF GOSPEL OUTREACH. 15:04 TO PLANT INDIGENOUS INDIVIDUALS THERE WHO CAN 15:07 SHARE JESUS. 15:08 AND THESE WORKERS ARE NOT PAID A FAT SALARY. 15:09 THEY ARE FROM THOSE LOCATIONS. 15:11 THEY HAVE TO RAISE THEIR OWN MONEY FOR THEIR 15:14 GROCERIES AND SOMETIMES THEY HAVE THE LUXURY OF A 15:16 BICYCLE THAT WE WILL SEND THEM. 15:18 BUT WE WANT TO HEAR SOME STORIES AND SOME PICTURES 15:20 OF SOME ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE THINGS. 15:22 I THINK WE HAVE SOME SLIDES IF YOU WANT TO 15:24 COMMENT ON SOME OF THOSE. 15:25 RIGHT. 15:27 I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE TO YOU JOSHUA SUBASH AND HIS 15:30 WIFE SAMANTHA. 15:33 WE HAD A CHALLENGE IN ONE OF OUR SECTIONS AND WE 15:36 DIDN'T REALIZE HOW WE COULD RESOLVE IT. 15:39 WE BEGAN TO PRAY FOR SOME WAY THAT GOD WOULD BRING A 15:42 SOLUTION TO THAT. 15:44 IT WAS AMAZING HOW GOD BROUGHT THIS MAN TO OUR 15:48 HOME IN NORTHERN IDAHO ALL THE WAY FROM INDIA AND IT 15:53 WAS A MIRACLE BECAUSE HE HAD JUST FINISHED COLLEGE 15:58 AND REALIZED THE NEED FOR MEDICAL EVANGELISM IN 16:01 INDIA. 16:03 AND WE HAVE BEEN ABLE SINCE TO PUT TOGETHER A 16:05 TEAM, HE PUT IT TOGETHER, AND THEY HAVE NOW FINISHED 16:09 TRAINING IN EACH ONE OF OUR FOUR CONFERENCES. 16:12 AND AS WE SEE THE RESULTS THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE IN 16:15 THE HEARTS AND LIVES OF OUR BIBLE WORKERS AND 16:19 LEADERSHIP EVEN AS A RESULT OF THIS IT'S BEEN 16:21 AMAZING. 16:22 MARVELOUS. 16:23 MARVELOUS AND IT'S FOLLOWING ON NOW. 16:25 I WANT TO READ THIS QUOTATION ABOUT WHAT IS 16:27 CHRIST'S METHOD. 16:28 THIS IS WHAT HE BELIEVES IN AND HAS PUT INTO 16:31 PRACTICE IN HIS TRAINING. 16:34 THIS IS FOUND IN MINISTRY OF HEALING PG. 16:36 143. 16:38 IT READ "CHRIST'S METHOD ALONE WILL GIVE TRUE 16:40 SUCCESS IN REACHING THE PEOPLE. 16:44 THE SAVIOR MINGLED WITH MEN AS ONE WHO DESIRED 16:46 THEIR GOOD. 16:48 HE SHOWED HIS SYMPATHY FOR THEM, MINISTERED TO THEIR 16:51 NEEDS AND THEN WON THEIR CONFIDENCE. 16:54 THEN HE BADE THEM FOLLOW ME." 16:57 THAT IS PROFOUND. 16:58 THAT IS PROFOUND. 16:59 HE MINGLED WITH THEM FIRST. 17:01 RIGHT. 17:02 SENSED THEIR NEEDS, EMPATHIZED WITH THEM, WAS 17:04 THERE TO HELP THEM. 17:06 THEN HE BADE THEM FOLLOW ME. 17:08 AMEN. 17:09 AND THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO DO. 17:11 THAT'S RIGHT. 17:12 THIS IS THE TEAM EATING AT A TABLE. 17:19 SOME INDIGENOUS YOUNG PEOPLE AS YOU CAN SEE, 17:24 THROUGHOUT INDIA, THAT WORK TOGETHER IN TRAINING, 17:29 TEACHING THE HEALTH PRINCIPLES THAT WE KNOW SO 17:31 WELL AS ADVENTISTS AND PUT INTO PRACTICE. 17:34 MOST OF US SHOULD AND DO. 17:35 I'D LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THESE YOUNG PEOPLE. 17:38 ABSOLUTELY DEDICATED TO THE WORK OF THE LORD AND 17:41 THEY HAVE SUCH A VISION OF HELPING OTHERS. 17:44 IT WAS JUST A PLEASURE TO BE WITH THEM. 17:46 IT WAS REALLY INSPIRATIONAL FOR YOU. 17:47 OH IT WAS. 17:48 AND THEY ARE YOUNG PEOPLE THAT COULD BE DOING OTHER 17:50 THINGS BUT THEY HAVE-WHEN YOU SEE THEM TEACHING 17:53 MASSAGE, TEACHING THE EIGHT HEALTH LAWS, 17:59 EXERCISE AND NUTRITION. 18:03 OH IT WAS JUST VERY VERY WONDERFUL. 18:05 THEY DID ALL THE WORK AND THEY JUST LOVED IT. 18:07 THEY JUST GLOW WITH THE LOVE OF JESUS. 18:10 YOU SAID SOMETHING VERY EXCITING THAT THE PEOPLE 18:13 THAT ARE RECEIVING THESE MESSAGES AREN'T THE OLD 18:16 FOLKS IN ROCKING CHAIRS. 18:17 THE PICTURES ARE SHOWING A YOUNGER GENERATION. 18:21 WHEN I SPEAK IN THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA AT CAMP 18:24 MEETINGS AND CHURCH EVENTS OFTEN IT'S LIKE GREY 18:26 HAIRS. 18:27 BUT NONE OF THEM ARE GREY HAIRS. 18:29 LOOK AT THAT. 18:29 THEY'RE ALL YOUNG PEOPLE. 18:30 YES. 18:31 THIS PARTICULAR PICTURE IS ACTUALLY OF THE TEAM THAT 18:33 FED US. 18:34 ALL OUR FOOD WAS COOKED OUTSIDE AND THEY HAD TO GO 18:38 THROUGH THEIR RICE AND TAKE OUT THE LITTLE 18:40 STONES, TAKE THE PEAS OUT OF THE POD. 18:45 IT WAS JUST AMAZING TO SEE. 18:47 IT WAS A FUN EXPERIENCE. 18:48 FOLLOWING WE HAVE A FEW PICTURES. 18:51 SHE WAS THE COOK, THE MAIN COOK. 18:54 WE HAVE SEVERAL PICTURES ALSO OF THE TRAINING 18:56 SESSIONS. 18:59 HERE WE'RE TRAINING-WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE BONNIE? 19:03 IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE DOING FOMENTATIONS FOR A 19:05 HEADACHE. 19:09 WE WERE VERY IMPRESSED WHEN THE UNION CAME UP AND 19:13 HAD SPECIAL PRAYER FOR US, THE TREASURER AND THE 19:15 PRESIDENT OF THE CONFERENCE. 19:16 THEY ALL GATHERED AROUND US AND PRAYED FOR OUR 19:20 SUCCESS AND THAT THE LORD WOULD BE WITH US. 19:22 IT WAS JUST A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. 19:24 MORE TRAINING. 19:31 IS THIS AT A SCHOOL OR A CHURCH OR AUDITORIUM? 19:34 THIS IS ACTUALLY AT THE NORTH ORISSA SECTION 19:38 OFFICE. 19:40 IT WAS NOT A LARGE ROOM BUT WE HAVE THIRTEEN MEN 19:44 THERE THAT ARE BIBLE WORKERS. 19:45 THEY ARE VERY DEDICATED MEN. 19:47 SO JUST NOW THE PICTURE WITH ALL THOSE INDIVIDUALS 19:50 WAS THAT A LOT OF THE GOSPEL WORKERS YOU'RE 19:52 TRAINING? 19:52 THAT'S RIGHT. 19:53 SO THEY COME TOGETHER TO GET MORE INFORMATION AND 19:56 HELP. 19:57 I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU THAT THEY TRAIN MORNING, 19:59 THEY HAVE LUNCH, AFTER LUNCH THEY GO INTO THE 20:02 COMMUNITY AND PRACTICE WHAT THEY HAVE LEARNED. 20:05 AND THEN THEY INVITE THEM TO THIS HEALTH EXPO. 20:09 AND THEY COME AND THEY COME AND THEY KEEP COMING. 20:12 AND THAT LAST PICTURE YOU SAW WHERE IT SAID, WAS IT 20:15 TRUST IN DIVINE POWER? 20:17 YES. 20:18 YOU WILL SEE SOME MORE OF THOSE PICTURES BUT WE HAVE 20:19 THESE BIG BANNERS AND THEN THE BIBLE WORKERS, THEY 20:23 TALK TO THE PEOPLE. 20:24 THEY GET TO EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH THESE PEOPLE. 20:28 AND THE PEOPLE COME IN LARGE NUMBERS. 20:30 THEY DO. 20:31 THEY KEEP COMING AND THEY WEIGH THEM, THEY TAKE 20:33 THEIR BLOOD PRESSURE. 20:34 THEY TEST THEIR BLOOD FOR DIABETES AND WE OFTEN 20:39 TIMES HAVE DOCTORS FROM THEIR LOCAL AREA THAT COME 20:41 AND HELP. 20:42 IT WAS REALLY REALLY FUN. 20:43 YOU CAN SEE THEM THERE TAKING- AND THEN THEY SHOW 20:47 THEM ABOUT JESUS. 20:49 AND WHAT WAS AMAZING IS THAT WE HAD THIS HEALTH 20:51 FAIR ON A WEDNESDAY AND THE REST OF THE TIME THE 20:56 PEOPLE WOULD STILL KEEP COMING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. 20:58 THEY JUST KEPT COMING AND COMING. 21:00 THEY WERE EXPECTING SOMETHING MORE TO HAPPEN? 21:02 WELL THEY WERE WANTING TO SIT IN ON THE CLASSES AND 21:04 LEARN MORE ABOUT NUTRITION AND EXERCISE. 21:06 AND I WENT OUT INTO THE VILLAGES WITH SOME OF 21:09 THEM. 21:10 OF COURSE IT'S HARD FOR ME BECAUSE I DON'T SPEAK 21:11 THEIR LANGUAGE BUT THEY ARE SO SWEET. 21:14 I'M ASSUMING THIS IS A GRADUATION PHOTO. 21:16 IT IS, YES. 21:17 THEY GOT A DIPLOMA. 21:18 AND NOW THEY CAN GO OUT AND FEEL LIKE THEY'RE 21:20 AUTHORIZED TO GO OUT AND REPRESENT IT AT A 21:22 DIFFERENT LEVEL THAN THEY KNEW BEFORE. 21:24 YES. 21:25 AND ALL THOSE BANNERS AND ALL OF THE GUIDELINES AND 21:28 ALL OF THE WEIGHT AND BLOOD PRESSURE WERE ALL 21:31 LEFT SO THAT THESE BIBLE WORKERS CAN HAVE A SMALL 21:34 LITTLE COMMUNITY HEALTH EXPO IF THEY WANT TO. 21:37 I THINK WE NEED TO REALIZE THAT THE REMEDY FOR OUR 21:40 CONDITION AS A PEOPLE IS FOUND IN ISAIAH 58. 21:44 THE FIRST SIX VERSES DEAL WITH HOW WE DESIRE TO KNOW 21:48 GOD AND BE NEAR HIM AND FAST AND PRAY. 21:51 BUT IT'S REALLY THE WRONG FAST GOD SAYS. 21:54 THE REAL FAST IS COVERING THE NAKED, INVITE THE POOR 21:59 AND THE HUNGRY INTO YOUR HOME, CARE FOR THEIR 22:01 NEEDS. 22:02 THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THESE MEN HAVE FOUND TO BE SO 22:04 TRUE AS THEY HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE COMMUNITY AND 22:07 INVITE THEM TO COME. 22:09 AND AS THEY COME AND AS THEY DEAL WITH THE ISSUES 22:14 OF PHYSICAL HEALTH NEEDS, THAT ARE DESPERATELY 22:17 NEEDED IN INDIA, THEY FIND THE CHANGE THAT TAKES 22:20 PLACE IN THEIR HEART. 22:21 AND I THINK WE AS A PEOPLE HAVE FOUND THAT TO BE 22:23 TRUE. 22:24 I THINK THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE WATCHING 22:25 THIS TODAY HAVE UNDERSTOOD AND REALIZE "PATHWAYS TO 22:28 HEALTH" HAS BEEN A WONDERFUL WAY AND MEANS TO 22:31 REACH THE COMMUNITY. 22:33 AND WE OUGHT TO PUT INTO PRACTICE WHAT WE'VE KNOWN 22:34 FOR SO MANY YEARS. 22:35 THAT'S CORRECT. 22:36 THAT'S WHAT MAKES A HUGE STATEMENT TODAY. 22:39 THE POPULAR MEDICAL PEOPLE ON TELEVISION ARE TALKING 22:42 ABOUT THINGS THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT BUT WE DON'T 22:44 PRACTICE IT. 22:46 BUT YOU KNOW JESUS HAD A VERY INTERESTING USE OF 22:49 THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN SEVERAL PLACES. 22:52 YOU KNOW THE OLD KING JAMES-ALL TRANSLATIONS ARE 22:55 GOOD-BUT THE OLD KING JAMES USES THE OLD ENGLISH 22:59 YE AND THEE AND THOU. 23:02 THAT IS WITHOUT EXCEPTION, MAYBE ONE OR TWO OTHERS, 23:06 SINGULAR. 23:08 IN MODERN TRANSLATIONS WHEN IT SAYS YOU ARE THE 23:11 LIGHT OF THE WORLD, YOU DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S ONE 23:12 PERSON OR A CHURCH OR 500 PEOPLE THAT ARE GATHERING. 23:16 JESUS SAYS "YE ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD." 23:19 THAT'S ALWAYS SINGULAR, PERSONAL. 23:21 SO YOU TALKED ABOUT ISAIAH SAYING THAT WE NEED TO GO 23:24 OUT AND JUST BE AN INFLUENCE FOR GOOD, JESUS 23:28 SAYS YE ARE A CITY SET ON A HILL CANNOT BE HID. 23:35 AND PAUL TALKS ABOUT EACH BELIEVER HAS AN UNCTION OF 23:38 THE HOLY SPIRIT. 23:40 YE HAVE AN UNCTION. 23:41 YOU ARE JESUS CHRIST TO PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THOSE 23:43 WHO DON'T KNOW YOU. 23:44 AND WHEN THESE FOLKS GO INTO THE 10/40 WINDOW THEY 23:51 ARE TO GO IN THERE AND EAT, SLEEP AND BREATH THE 23:53 PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST AND THEIR INFLUENCE IS WHAT'S 23:56 GOING TO BE IMPACTING PEOPLE. 23:58 IT ISN'T WHAT THEY SAY. 23:59 BECAUSE IT ISN'T WHAT WE SAY OR DO ANYWAY, IT'S ALL 24:02 THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT'S BEEN WORKING AHEAD OF 24:04 TIME. 24:05 AND SO LANELLE AND I JUST CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH 24:08 FOR REPRESENTING US. 24:09 WE CAN'T PHYSICALLY GO TO SOME OF THESE PLACES. 24:12 AND THAT'S WHERE YOU FOLKS, WATCHING AT HOME, 24:13 CAN ACTUALLY PARTICIPATE IN THESE MIRACLES BY 24:18 SUPPORTING ONE OF THOSE GOSPEL WORKERS. 24:20 THIS IS A FAITH BASED ORGANIZATION. 24:23 NOBODY GETS SALARIES FOR BEING HERE AND ON THIS 24:26 TELEVISION PROGRAM. 24:28 IT'S ALL VOLUNTEER DRIVEN. 24:30 YOUR DONATIONS 98 PERCENT OF THEM GO TO THAT WORKER 24:35 AND YOU CAN HELP SUPPORT A HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS 24:37 A MONTH OR YOU CAN DO A PARTIAL OF THAT. 24:40 YOU CAN JUST SEND TEN DOLLARS A MONTH, SEND FIVE 24:43 DOLLARS. 24:44 ALL OF THAT WE WOULDN'T BE TELLING YOU THESE STORIES 24:46 AND THEY WOULDN'T BE THERE WITH THESE WORKERS IN 24:48 INDIA WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT. 24:50 SO WE WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO PRAY, GET 24:54 INVOLVED WITH FINANCIAL SUPPORT IF YOU CAN. 24:56 AND THOSE NUMBERS WILL ROLL ON THE SCREEN AT THE 24:59 END OF THE PROGRAM. 25:00 AND IF YOU CAN GO OVER THERE YOU'D BE REFRESHED 25:04 TO KNOW THAT SOMEBODY IS COMING OVER TO SUPPORT YOU 25:06 AND CARRY YOUR SUITCASES AND HAVE A PART. 25:08 RIGHT? 25:08 THAT'S RIGHT. 25:10 IT IS A JOY TO BE A PART OF GOSPEL OUTREACH. 25:13 YOU KNOW WE'RE HERE BECAUSE WE REALLY BELIEVE 25:16 IN IT. 25:16 THAT'S RIGHT. 25:17 AND THAT'S WHY WERE HERE RIGHT NOW AND TALKING WITH 25:19 YOU. 25:20 AND IT'S FUN FOR US TO BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN 25:22 WHATEVER WAY THAT WE CAN. 25:24 AND TO HEAR YOU TELL US ABOUT THE STORIES THAT ARE 25:27 HAPPENING THERE IS SO INSPIRATIONAL. 25:29 RIGHT NOW I'M LONGING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE IN THIS 25:34 COUNTRY WHERE I LIVE TO BE AS EXCITED ABOUT WHAT 25:37 THEY'RE DOING FOR THE GOSPEL AS WE JUST SAW IN 25:39 THOSE PICTURES WE WERE LOOKING AT. 25:41 FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS I'VE BEEN WITH SOME OF THOSE 25:42 BIG NAMES IN ADVENTIST TELEVISION. 25:44 DAN MATTHEWS, DOUG BATCHELOR, MARK FINLEY, 25:49 AND THERE IS A PLACE FOR THE LARGE CORPORATE 25:51 EVANGELISTIC MEETING, BUT WE'RE NOT GETTING INTO THE 25:55 10/40 WINDOW HERE IN NORTH AMERICA NOT BY AND LARGE. 25:59 BUT THIS LAY-DRIVEN MOVEMENT TO PAY INDIGENOUS 26:03 PEOPLE OUT THERE IS SOMETHING SO EXCITING. 26:06 YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE A PERSON OUT THERE BAPTIZING 26:09 THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE NOW. 26:11 IN THE 25 YEARS WE'VE BEEN IN EXISTENCE HOW MANY HAVE 26:14 BEEN BAPTIZED? 26:15 I DON'T HAVE THAT NUMBER. 26:17 I THINK IT'S OVER 25 THOUSAND PEOPLE NOW. 26:19 IT'S PEOPLE THAT ARE IN COUNTRIES WHERE IT IS VERY 26:22 DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO FOLLOW THEIR FAITH AND 26:24 THEY
