00:33 WELCOME TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" HERE AT GOSPEL
00:35 OUTREACH. 00:36 I'M JULIE SANDERS-KEYMER AND PEACE. 00:38 JESUS SAID THAT HE HAD GIVEN US PEACE AND HE 00:41 CONTINUES TO GIVE US PEACE AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE 00:44 WANTING TO SHARE WITH THE PEOPLE IN THE 10/40 00:46 WINDOW. 00:47 THE PEACE OF JESUS CHRIST IN JOHN 14:27 JESUS SAID, 00:51 "PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU. 00:52 MY PEACE I GIVE YOU. 00:54 I DO NOT GIVE TO YOU AS THE WORLD GIVES. 00:56 DO NOT LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED AND DO NOT BE 00:58 AFRAID." 01:00 AS CHRISTIANS WE KNOW THE PEACE OF JESUS AND WE WANT 01:03 TO BE SHARING THAT WITH OTHER PEOPLE RIGHT, BEV 01:05 THOMPSON? 01:05 YES, FOR SURE. 01:07 AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE WANTING TO TALK ABOUT 01:08 TODAY ABOUT YOUR TERRITORY BEV. 01:11 AND WHERE IS YOUR TERRITORY FOR GOSPEL 01:12 OUTREACH? 01:13 IT IS NORTHEAST INDIA FROM CALCUTTA TO BHUTAN AND 01:16 THEN SOUTH OF NEPAL DOWN INTO CENTRAL INDIA. 01:19 AND YOU KNOW, WE HEAR A LOT ABOUT INDIA BECAUSE 01:21 INDIA IS GROWING, YES ALWAYS. 01:24 AND TECHNOLOGY- THERE ARE LOTS OF CALL CENTERS, 01:27 THERE ARE LOT OF PRODUCTS THAT ARE NOW MADE IN 01:29 INDIA. 01:30 YES, AND IN MY AREA, WE ARE RIGHT ON THE EDGE OF 01:34 THAT CUTTING EDGE AND ESPECIALLY WITH CALCUTTA 01:36 BECAUSE CALCUTTA HAS BEEN STARTING TO BECOME MORE 01:39 AND MORE INTO THE INTERNET AREA. 01:43 AND WE TALK ABOUT PEACE BECAUSE WE NEED PEACE IN 01:46 OUR HEARTS NO MATTER WHERE WE LIVE BUT ESPECIALLY IN 01:49 THESE AREAS OF THE 10/40 WINDOW WHERE THESE PEOPLE 01:51 DON'T HAVE WATER, THEY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH FOOD, 01:54 THEY DON'T HAVE THE PEACE OF JESUS TO KNOW THAT HE 01:57 IS THE LIVING GOD. 01:58 IS THAT TRUE? 01:59 AND YET THERE ARE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS THERE. 02:00 YES. 02:01 AND WE ONLY HAVE 130 WORKERS IN THAT REGION AND 02:06 WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE MORE AND GOD IS CALLING THEM. 02:10 WONDERFUL. 02:11 WELL, I KNOW BEV YOU ARE A LADY WHO LOVES YOU JOB 02:14 HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH. 02:15 I DO. 02:16 AND YOU LOVE VISITING YOUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS. 02:17 I DO. 02:18 AND YOU ARE A LADY FILLED WITH STORIES. 02:20 I LOVE THE STORIES. 02:22 I RECEIVE A STORY FROM EVERY GOSPEL OUTREACH 02:24 WORKER EVERY QUARTER SO I GO THROUGH 130 STORIES 02:29 EVERY QUARTER. 02:30 BECAUSE THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS- WE ASK 02:32 THEM DON'T WE? 02:33 TO GIVE US STORIES OF WHAT'S GOING ON IN THEIR 02:35 AREA. 02:36 AN EXPERIENCE OF SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO THEM 02:37 DURING THE LAST MONTH. 02:39 AND THAT'S THE FUN PART OF WHAT WE DO IS WE ARE HERE 02:41 BEING ABLE TO SHARE THESE FANTASTIC STORIES OF WHAT 02:44 JESUS IS DOING AND WE SAY THAT THEY ARE STORIES BUT 02:46 THESE ARE ACTUAL PEOPLE IN THESE STORIES WHO THEIR 02:50 LIVES ARE BEING CHANGED. 02:51 THAT'S RIGHT. 02:52 I'M THINKING ABOUT MY FIRST STORY THAT I HAVE 02:54 NOW. 02:55 WE HAD A YOUNG MAN WHO WAS-HE WAS 29 YEARS OLD 03:01 AND HE HAD BACK PAIN AND THE BACK PAIN WAS SO 03:04 SEVERE HE TOLD HIS WIFE FIND SOME HELP FOR ME. 03:06 AND SO, SHE FOUND THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER WHO 03:09 GAVE MASSAGES. 03:11 AND WHEN HE CAME, HE GAVE HIM THE MASSAGE AND HE 03:15 PRAYED WITH HIM BUT THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER 03:20 WANTED TO BE ABLE TO SAY SOMETHING MORE TO HIM 03:23 ABOUT JESUS BUT HE WAS ALOOF. 03:25 HE DIDN'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING RELIGIOUS 03:28 AND SO HE LEFT WITH A PRAYER. 03:33 WELL, THE PAIN WENT AWAY FROM HIM FOR A FEW WEEKS 03:38 BUT THEN HE GOT IT BACK AGAIN AND HE SENT HIS WIFE 03:41 TO FIND THIS GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER AGAIN. 03:44 WHEN HE CAME BACK, DHARMENDER HE COULD HEAR 03:48 THE MAN GROANING AS HE APPROACHED THE HOME. 03:52 SO, THE PAIN WAS SO INTENSE HE WAS GROANING. 03:54 HE WAS HAVING A REALLY DIFFICULT TIME AND WHEN HE 03:59 CAME IN, HE SAID, I PRAY. 04:04 I USED TO HAVE PAIN LIKE THIS AND I HAD A BIBLE 04:08 WORKER COME BY AND PRAY FOR ME AND MASSAGE ME AND 04:12 I GOT BETTER AND HERE I AM TODAY. 04:14 I DON'T HAVE ANY PAIN AND HE SAID, PRAY FOR ME. 04:20 HE WAS TO THE POINT OF SO MUCH PAIN THAT HE WAS, 04:22 YES, WILLING TO HAVE THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER 04:23 PRAY FOR HIM. 04:24 AND SO, HE GAVE HIM -DHARMENDER GAVE THE 04:27 MASSAGE AND AFTERWARDS HE PRAYED AGAIN AND THEN HE 04:32 TOLD HIM THE STORY OF THE LOST COIN. 04:37 I THOUGHT, THE LOST COIN? 04:38 WHY DID HE CHOOSE THIS ONE? 04:39 WELL, HE HAD JUST MEMORIZED IT IN LUKE 8-THE 04:42 STORY OF THE LOST COIN AND HE JUST POURED IT OUT FROM 04:45 HIS HEART AND WHEN HE FINISHED, HE SAID, WHAT 04:48 MESSAGE DID YOU GET FROM THIS STORY? 04:50 AND HE SAID, WELL, WE CAN BE LOST IN OUR OWN HOME 04:55 AND WITH THAT IT TOUCHED HIS HEART AND HE ASKED HIM 05:00 TO COME BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN TO TELL MORE ABOUT 05:03 THE GOD THAT YOU SERVE BECAUSE HE DID HEAL ME 05:07 FROM MY PAIN. 05:08 NOT ONLY THAT HE HAS A MESSAGE FOR ME. 05:09 HE IS ALIVE. 05:10 HE CAN SEE ME. 05:11 HE CAN HEAR ME AND SO DHARMENDER WAS GOING BACK 05:12 SEVERAL TIMES AND NOW HE HAS FORMED WITH THE PERSON 05:13 WHO WAS HURTING WITH HIS BACK PAIN HAS FORMED A 05:15 GROUPIN HIS VILLAGE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT GOD. 05:17 SO, IT'S THAT RIPPLE EFFECT AND WE CONTINUALLY 05:18 TALK ABOUT THAT HERE ON THIS SET OF GOSPEL 05:20 OUTREACH HERE AT "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" 05:21 BECAUSE IT IS ONE THING THAT YOU SHARE YOUR 05:22 TESTIMONY AND THEN YOU SHARE THAT WITH SOMEBODY 05:24 ELSE AND THAT'S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. 05:25 THAT'S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT, YES SHARING ONE 05:26 PERSON TO THE NEXT. 05:27 THEN I THINK ABOUT -I WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE 05:28 PICTURE OF THE GATHERING OF THESE PEOPLE DHARMENDER 05:29 WITH THE PERSON WITH THE PAIN IN HIS BACK AND THE 05:31 GROUPS THAT ARE NOW FORMING BECAUSE OF THIS. 05:36 WELL, AND WHEN YOU DO HAVE BACK PAIN BECAUSE I 05:49 EXPERIENCE BACK PAIN AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT IT 05:56 JUST KIND OF OFTEN TIMES JUST TAKES OVER YOU WHOLE 06:03 LIFE AND ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE IN A PART OF THE 06:11 WORLD WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE MASSAGE THERAPIST TO GO 06:15 TO, OR A PHYSICAL THERAPIST OR A PHYSICIAN. 06:17 THIS POOR MAN HERE HE IS AT HOME AND HERE HE 06:20 REACHED OUT TO THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER. 06:22 NOW MANY OF THEM ARE LEARNING ABOUT JESUS. 06:23 ABSOLUTELY. 06:24 ITS AN EXCITING THING. 06:26 ABSOLUTELY. 06:27 NOW, MY NEXT STORY I WANTED TO TELL YOU IS 06:29 ABOUT THE NAME IS- I HAVE TO REMEMBER- RAMRAJ. 06:35 RAMRAJ WENT INTO A NEW VILLAGE ONE HE HAD NEVER 06:42 BEEN TO BEFORE AND HE WAS A LITTLE BIT HESITANT, A 06:44 LITTLE FEARFUL. 06:46 AND RAMRAJ IS OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER. 06:48 HE IS OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER AND AS SOON AS HE 06:50 GOT INTO THE VILLAGE THE FIRST THING, THEY DO IS 06:52 MEET SOMEBODY IN THE VILLAGE AND WHO ARE YOU? 06:55 WHAT ARE YOUHERE FOR? 06:56 WHAT ARE YOU DOING? 06:57 A NEW PERSON SHOWED UP, YES, EVERYBODY WANTS TO 06:59 KNOW. 07:00 YES, AND HE SAID, I PRAY FOR THE SICK AND OH, WELL 07:08 MY DAUGHTER IS SICK. 07:09 WILL YOU COME WITH ME TO MY DAUGHTER? 07:11 AND WHEN HE WENT TO THE DAUGHTER, AS HE ENTERED 07:17 THE ROOM, HE COULD SMELL A BAD ODOR AND HE LOOKED AT 07:22 HER AND HE SAID, THIS GIRL IS REALLY SICK. 07:25 AND HE SAID, WE NEED TO PRAY. 07:30 AND AS HE STARTED TO PRAY, HE PRAYED FOR THE FAMILY 07:37 BUT THEN HE STARTED TO PRAY FOR THE GIRL WHO WAS 07:40 SICK AND WITH THAT THE GIRL STARTED TO MOVE AND 07:44 GO, RIGHT THEN. 07:46 YES, RIGHT THEN STARTED TO SLITHER AROUND LIKE A 07:49 SNAKE AND HAD A HIDEOUS LAUGHTER, OH, OH, AND THE 07:55 POOR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER HE WAS A LITTLE BIT 07:57 AFRAID IN WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN HERE. 08:00 BUT HE CONTINUED TO PRAY AND YOU KNOW, A MINUTE 08:04 SEEMS LIKE AN ETERNITY WHEN THIS IS GOING ON BUT 08:07 HE SAID IT PROBABLY WAS ABOUT A MINUTE WHEN SHE 08:10 STOPPED SLITHERING AND SCREAMING AND WAS CALM. 08:14 THEY WERE SO THANKFUL TO SEE THIS HAPPEN BECAUSE IT 08:18 WAS LIKE EVIL SPIRIT WAS LEAVING-HAD LEFT HER. 08:21 AND WITH THIS, THE FAMILY WAS AMAZED AND THEY TOLD 08:29 OTHERS AND THEN THEY TOLD HIM COME BACK SOME MORE 08:34 AND TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR GOD. 08:35 WELL, AND THAT'S THE PEACE THAT WE TALKED ABOUT 08:37 EARLIER. 08:38 THAT'S RIGHT. 08:39 THIS IS THE PEACE. 08:39 PEACE. 08:41 WHEN YOU WERE READING IT, I THOUGHT ABOUT THIS THAT 08:43 THE PEACE THAT COMES INTO THE FAMILY'S HEARTS OF 08:45 PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN EVIL SPIRIT LEAVE THEM. 08:48 EVIL SPIRITS ARE I HATE TO SAY COMMON, BUT FOR MY 08:55 EXPERIENCE IN GOING TO INDIA, I SEE IT AS A 08:58 COMMON THING AND THEN WHEN I READ THE STORIES OF MY 09:02 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS WRITE TO ME, I SAY OVER 09:05 AND OVER AGAIN EVERY TIME I RECEIVE A GROUP OF 09:09 STORIES THERE IS GOING TO BE TWO OR THREE STORIES 09:11 ABOUT AN EVIL SPIRIT BEING THERE. 09:13 REALLY? 09:13 THAT MANY? 09:14 YES. 09:15 SO, I SAY IT IS PROBABLY COMMON. 09:17 ABSOLUTELY WELL, AND THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT IT A 09:19 LOT, BEV. 09:20 ABOUT THE EVIL SPIRITS SO WE HERE IN THE BIBLE AND 09:24 YOU KNOW MAYBE IN OUR WESTERN WORLD WE DON'T 09:27 EXPERIENCE OR SEE THE KIND OF EVIL SPIRITS THAT YOU 09:30 ARE TALKING ABOUT BUT THERE ARE -THERE IS THE 09:33 EVIL IS EVERYWHERE AND THE EVIL SPIRITS CAN HAVE A 09:36 DIFFERENT FORM AND HAVING SPENT TIME IN THE 10/40 09:39 WINDOW AND HAVING SPENT TIME IN PLACES WHERE YOU 09:43 CAN SEE THESE OTHER RELIGIONS, THESE OTHER 09:45 WAYS OF BELIEF AND WAYS OF LIFE AND IT IS OPPRESSIVE. 09:49 YES. 09:50 AND TO HAVE THAT, YOU KNOW, THE DEVIL IS -THE 09:52 BIBLE SAYS HE IS ROAMING AROUND AND HE IS TRYING TO 09:55 SEEK PEOPLE AND THIS IS-IT HAPPENS. 09:57 HE GETS THEM TANTALIZED, YES, BECAUSE AT FIRST IT'S 10:02 SOMETHING THEY SHOW OFF AND THEN PEOPLE WILL PAY 10:06 THEM MONEY TO DO SOMETHING FOR THEM AND THE EVIL 10:10 SPIRIT IS WORKING THROUGH THEM. 10:12 WELL, AND PAUL TALKS ABOUT IT BUT WE ARE TALKING 10:15 ABOUT PEACE SO BEV, THANK YOU. 10:17 AND WE WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE PEACE 10:18 OF JESUS. 10:19 YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN TO INDIA. 10:20 MAYBE YOU HAVE BUT YOU ARE HELPING PEOPLE IIN THIS 10:21 PART OF THE WORLD IN THE 10/40 WINDOW AND 10:24 SPECIFICALLY IN INDIA WHERE BEV IS THE REGIONAL 10:31 DIRECTOR FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH AND YOU ARE 10:35 HEARING SOME FANTASTIC STORIES OF HOW GOD IS 10:38 WORKING THROUGH THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS THROUGH 10:41 PRAYER, THROUGH MASSAGE, AND THROUGH THINGS THAT 10:44 YOU KNOW WE MIGHT TAKE FOR GRANTED AND IT'S THE 10:45 SIMPLE QUESTION OF MAY I PRAY FOR YOU? 10:48 AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE SO EXCITED HERE AT GOSPEL 10:51 OUTREACH TO BE ABLE TO SHARE WITH YOU THESE 10:53 STORIES. 10:54 AND WE JUST THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF THE MINISTRY 10:57 OF GOSPEL OUTREACH. 10:59 WHY HASN'T JESUS COME? 11:02 IT'S BECAUSE WE HAVE A JOB TO DO. 11:05 ONE THAT HIS RETURN DEPENDS ON. 11:08 THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT CHRIST WILL COME AFTER THE 11:11 GOSPEL HAS BEEN PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD. 11:14 THE WORLD'S POPULATION EXCEEDS SEVEN BILLION BUT 11:19 THREE BILLION PEOPLE STILL NEED TO HEAR ABOUTJESUS' 11:22 LOVE. 11:24 NINETY-SEVEN PER CENT OF THE UNREACHED PEOPLE LIVE 11:26 IN THE AREA FROM 10 TO 40 DEGREES NORTH OF THE 11:29 EQUATOR FROM WEST AFRICA, THE MIDDLE EAST, INDIA, 11:34

EXCITING THINGS 13:53 IN YOUR AREA OF INDIA AND STORIES. 13:55 YOU ARE THE LADY OF STORIES AND JESUS WAS A 13:58 MAN OF STORIES. 13:59 I CAN'T EMPHASIZE MORE WHAT YOU HAVE JUST SAID. 14:02 WE NEED MORE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS 14:04 DESPERATELY. 14:05 GOD IS GOOD AND HE IS WORKING THROUGH THEM AND 14:08 IT IS AN AMAZING THING WHAT IS HAPPENING. 14:11 WELL, AND I'M GLAD YOU MENTIONED THAT TOO BECAUSE 14:13 I KNOW SOMEBODY WHO CAME FROM ANOTHER RELIGION AND 14:17 CAME INTO CHRISTIANITY AND HE SAID HE WAS ALMOST 14:20 ANGRY THAT NO ONE HAD SHARED WITH HIM EARLIER IN 14:24 HIS LIFE ABOUT CHRISTIANITY AND SO THERE 14:27 ARE SO MANY PEOPLE WHO STILL NEED TO KNOW JESUS. 14:29 I THINK ABOUT AS YOU SAY THAT, AJAY AND SANJAY 14:33 -THESE WERE BROTHERS AND AS THEY WERE GROWING UP, 14:36 THEY HAD HIGH AMBITIONS. 14:37 THEY WANTED TO BE SOMETHING BIG, SOMETHING 14:39 GOOD, SOMETHING THEY COULD BE OF SERVICE TO THE 14:42 COMMUNITY AND AS THEY GREW OLDER INTO THEIR TEENS, 14:46 THEY GOT SIDETRACKED. 14:48 SO OFTEN WE SEE SIDETRACKING WITH ALCOHOL 14:52 AND DRUGS. 14:54 WELL, THESE TWO MEN GOT INTO ALCOHOL AND THEN THEY 14:57 STARTED QUARRELING AND ARGUING WHEN THEY WERE 14:59 UNDER THE INFLUENCE. 15:01 THE WHOLE TOWN, THE WHOLE VILLAGE WOULD KNOW ABOUT 15:04 IT BECAUSE THEY WERE VERY STRONG AND THEY WOULD GET 15:06 INTO FIGHTS AND QUARRELS AND IT WAS A TERRIBLE 15:10 SCENE. 15:11 A GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER CAME INTO THE VILLAGE AND 15:17 TOLD THEM ABOUT THE EVILS OF ALCOHOL AND HOW IT 15:19 DESTROYS OUR BODIES AND OUR BRAINS, YES, AND HOW 15:23 WE NEED TO STOP WHERE WE ARE AT SO WE CAN BE OF 15:27 SERVICE TO OTHERS. 15:28 THEY HAD NO REALIZATION OF WHAT IT ACTUALLY 15:31 DOES-ALCOHOL DOES TO THEIR BODY WHENTHEY LEARNED 15:34 ABOUT IT THEY WERE CONVICTED. 15:36 YES, THE EDUCATION. 15:37 THAT'S RIGHT THE EDUCATION ALONE. 15:39 YES. 15:40 AND THEN I SAY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS 15:42 THERE TOO. 15:42 YES, WE ALL KNOW THAT. 15:43 THAT'S A COMBINATION OF EVERYTHING. 15:45 YES, THAT IS THE COMBINATION BUT PRAISE GOD 15:48 THESE YOUNG MEN ACCEPTED JESUS AND WHAT A CHANGE IN 15:52 THEIR LIVES. 15:53 NOW THEY ARE STILL WANTING TO BE OUT DOING SOMETHING 15:56 GOOD IN SERVICE TO OTHERS. 15:58 NO MORE ALCOHOL. 15:59 NO MORE ALCOHOL. 16:00 OK GOOD. 16:01 SANJAY AND AJAY GIVE WONDERFUL EXAMPLES. 16:03 DYNAMIC DUO FOR GOD NOW. 16:04 AND YOU KNOW, ALCOHOL IS A PROBLEM THAT I SEE AROUND 16:08 THE WORLD. 16:09 EVERY COUNTRY I'VE EVER VISITED IN ALCOHOL IS A 16:12 PROBLEM SITUATION. 16:14 WELL AND IT IS INTERESTING TOO FOR A LOT OF THESE 16:16 PLACES WHERE PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, MONEY IS A FACTOR 16:20 BUT YET THEY ARE SPENDING IT ON SOMETHING THAT THEY 16:23 SHOULDN'T AND YET IT IS THAT WHOLE CYCLE THAT THEY 16:26 GET INTO. 16:26 YES, YES. 16:28 AH, NOW I'D LIKE TO TAKE YOU TO A DIFFERENT 16:31 AREA-SOUTH BENGAL SECTION. 16:32 SOUTH BENGAL SECTION IS THE COUNTRYSIDE AROUND 16:35 CALCUTTA NOT INCLUDING THE CITY OF CALCUTTA. 16:41 AND WHEN WE ARRIVED IN BONCHI-THIS IS OUR 16:45 CONVEYANCE. 16:47 IT IS A FUN WAY TO TRAVEL. 16:50 THE SUPER TAXI. 16:51 TAXI, YES YOU CAN NAME IT WHATEVER YOU WANT THERE. 16:55 WELL, THE LEADER OF OUR CHURCH HAD JUST BEEN MOVED 16:59 FROM THE CITY OUT TO THE COUNTRY AND ONE OF THE 17:02 NICEST PLACES IN TOWN WAS THIS NEW BUILDING AND 17:06 THERE WAS TWO STORIES TO THIS BUILDING, ITS' A 17:09 BEAUTIFUL BUILDING, AND THE UPPER STORY THE OWNER 17:13 OR THE BUILDER OF THE BUILDING WANTED TO LIVE 17:14 THERE BUT THEY WANTED TO GET THE RIGHT PERSON TO 17:16 LIVE IN THE BUILDING BELOW AND SO OR IN THE LOWER 17:17 STORY AND SO WHEN THEY -THIS MAN IN THE BROWN 17:18 WRAP, HE WAS INTERVIEWING NIROBINDO FOR THE 17:20 POSSIBILITY OF HIM MOVING INTO THIS BUILDING AND ALL 17:21 OF A SUDDEN HIS WIFE CAME UP BEHIND HIM AND SAID, DO 17:22 YOU EAT COW? 17:23 OH MY? 17:42 THAT'S A LITTLE FORCEFUL? 17:43 AND HE WAS A LITTLE BIT SHOCKED, BUT HE SAID, NO, 17:47 I DON'T EAT ANY MEAT. 17:49 I'M VEGETARIAN. 17:51 AND WHY WOULD SHE ASK THAT QUESTION? 17:52 BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT RENT TO HIM IF HE ATE ANY 17:57 COWS, OK, BECAUSE COWS ARE HOLY TO THEM. 17:59 RIGHT. 18:00 IT WOULD JUST BE SO OFFENSIVE TO THEM 18:03 RELIGIOUSLY. 18:04 SO, THE HINDUS THAT'S WHY YOU SEE COWS LIKE 18:07 MEANDERING ALL AROUND IN INDIAN TOWNS, THEY ARE 18:09 ALWAYS, BECAUSE THEY VIEW THEM AS HOLY. 18:11 YES. 18:12 SO, WHEN NIROBINDER WAS ABLE TO RESPOND THAT WAY 18:17 THE WIFE SAID, YES, RENT TO HIM. 18:19 WE LIKE HIM. 18:20 YES. 18:20 HE'S SAFE. 18:21 NOW THAT PICTURE JUST BEFORE THERE WAS A YOUNG 18:23 MAN STANDING WITH HIS FATHER, IT WAS, AND HE WAS 18:30 GOING TO TAKE AN EXAMINATION AND SO THE 18:33 FATHER ASKED FOR PRAYER FOR HIM, GOOD, AND SO-FROM 18:38 THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER. 18:39 FROM THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER SO HERE IS THE 18:41 PASTOR WITH THE RED HAT ON, YES, IT IS COLD TO 18:44 THEM, YES, AND SO HE PRAYED FOR THIS AH, 18:48 STUDENT AND THEY WERE SO THANKFUL FOR IT AND HE WAS 18:51 SUCCESSFUL IN PASSING HIS EXAMINATIONS AND OFCOURSE, 18:54 THEY GIVE CREDIT TO WHERE IT CAME FROM. 18:58 AND YOU KNOW, GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS HOWEVER GOD SEES 19:01 FIT, RIGHT? 19:02 YES. 19:03 BUT IT IS SO EXCITING IN WITH OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH 19:06 WORKERS THAT GOD DECIDES TO HAVE IT BE SO FAVORABLE 19:11 FOR THESE PEOPLE BECAUSE HE KNOWS THE POWER OF ALL 19:14 OF THEIR BELIEFS AND SUPERSTITIONS AND ALL OF 19:16 THIS. 19:16 GOD IS SO GOOD. 19:17 YES. 19:18 EVERYTIME THAT WE SEE A MIRACLE AND WE DON'T EVEN 19:22 CLAIM IT SOMETIMES AS A MIRACLE BUT GOD IS 19:26 OVERSEEING EVERYTHING IN OUR LIVES. 19:29 ABSOLUTELY. 19:30 AND HERE THIS YOUNG MAN'S FATHER ASKING FOR PRAYER 19:33 FOR HIM AND HE WAS SUCCESSFUL. 19:35 PRAISE GOD. 19:37 RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO THE HOUSE THERE THEY HAD SOME 19:39 PROPERTIES SO NIROBINDER ASKED CAN WE GROW A FEW 19:42 GREENS HERE? 19:43 AND SO, THIS WAS HIS GARDEN. 19:45 GREENS THAT THEY CAN USE FOR THEIR COOKING, FOR 19:48 THEIR VEGETARIAN WAY OF LIFE -THEY SHOW IT. 19:51 NO COWS. 19:52 NO COWS, EXACTLY. 19:53 BUT THE MONKEYS DO VISIT THERE ONCE IN AWHILE. 19:57 OH INTERESTING. 19:58 OK. 19:59 WHILE WE WERE THERE, THEY KEPT THEIR USUAL PRACTICE 20:02 BECAUSE THEY WERE NEW IN TOWN, THEY WANTED TO 20:04 ESTABLISH A FRIENDSHIP WITH EVERYONE THEY COULD 20:07 SO THEY WOULD GO FOR A WALK EVERY MORNING AND WE 20:11 WENT WITH THEM. 20:12 GOOD. 20:12 HERE IS THIS LADY COLLECTING COW DUNG AND 20:16 PUTTING IT IN A PILE MIXING IT WITH A LITTLE 20:19 MUD AND WATER AND THEN SHE PUTS IT ON A TREE TO DRY 20:25 AND AS WE WERE WATCHING HER, SHE WAS SHOWING OFF 20:29 HOW SHE DID IT. 20:31 AND YOU KNOW THE AMAZING THING BEV, THE PREVIOUS 20:33 PICTURE AND THIS PICTURE THIS WOMAN IS SMILING. 20:36 NOW IF THIS HAD BEEN ME, I WOULD NOT BE SMILING DOING 20:40 THIS I CAN HONESTLY TELLYOU THAT WOULD NOT 20:42 HAVE BEEN MY EXPRESSION. 20:45 WOULD THAT HAVE BEEN YOURS? 20:46 NOT QUITE. 20:47 BUT YOU KNOW THE OTHER THING IS THIS IS A NASTY 20:51 JOB, A DIRTY JOB AND THEY GIVE IT TO THE WOMAN WHO 20:55 IS LEAST IN THE TOTEM POLE, IN THE FAMILY, AND 20:58 USUALLY THIS IS A NEW BRIDE, THE NEW 21:00 DAUGHTERINLAW. 21:00 YES. 21:02 WELL, AND YOU KNOW BEV, I HAVE SAT HERE WITH MANY 21:04 INTERVIEWS AND JOYFULLY LEARNED SO MANY THINGS 21:07 FROM YOU WHICH I THANK YOU. 21:08 THE LORD HAS TAUGHT ME MANY THINGS THROUGH YOU 21:11 AND ONE OF THE CULTURAL THINGS THAT I HAVE LEARNED 21:14 FROM YOU IS THIS PRACTICE IN THESE DIFFERENT 21:16 COUNTRIES AND RECENTLY I WAS IN THE 10/40 WINDOW 21:19 AND I KNEW EXACTLY WHAT WAS DECORATING THE HOUSES 21:22 ALL ALONG BECAUSE YOU HAD EDUCATED US AND EDUCATED 21:25 ME BUT WE LAUGH ABOUT THIS HOWEVER, THIS IS SERIOUS. 21:29 I MEAN JUST TO THINK THIS IS HOW THEY MAKE THE 21:33 BIOFUEL. 21:34 IT IS THEIR BIOFUEL, RIGHT. 21:35 THEY HEAT THEIR STOVES IN THEIR KITCHEN, YES, FOR 21:39 MAKING RICE AND DAL AND ALL OF THE THINGS AND KEEP 21:42 THEIR HOUSE WARM. 21:43 THEY MIX THIS COW DUNG WITH A LITTLE BIT OF MUD 21:45 AND THE MUD IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF HOLDING THE 21:48 HEAT LONGER. 21:49 THEY MIX IT ALSO WITH A LITTLE BIT OF STRAW AND 21:52 SOMEPLACES MORE THAN OTHERS AND THE STRAW IS 21:54 FOR FAST FIRE. 21:55 IT IS ALL PUT TOGETHER FOR A REAL THOUGHTFUL WAY OF 22:00 HEATING. 22:01 YES, AND THEY ARE USING THE RESOURCES THAT THEY 22:04 HAVE BUT THERE ARE NO RUBBER GLOVES, THERE ARE 22:07 NO BOTTLES OF PUREL AND WE JUST PRAY TO THE LORD THAT 22:11 HE PROTECTS THEM BUT AS WE SIT AND WATCHING THESE 22:15 PICTURES HERE WE ARE IN OUR WESTERN WORLD IN NORTH 22:18 AMERICA AND I DON'T' HAVE TO DO THIS, YOU DON'T HAVE 22:21 TO DO THIS I HOPE BUT JUST THINK OF HOW HISTORICALLY 22:24 THE BUFFALO CHIPS HERE IN AMERICA, YES, AND TO THINK 22:27 HOW FAR WE HAVE PROGRESSED IN OUR COUNTRIES WHERE WE 22:30 LIVE AND WHERE GOSPEL OUTREACH IS IN CANADA, 22:33 AMERICA AND BRAZIL AND THE FACT THAT WE CAN THEN HELP 22:37 THESE PEOPLE IN THE 10/40 WINDOW. 22:39 WE CALL IT PROGRESSION. 22:41 YES, AND YET IT IS VERY LOGICAL WHAT THEY ARE 22:45 DOING. 22:45 ABSOLUTELY. 22:46 IT IS THE NEEDS THAT THEY HAVE BUT WE -OUR NEEDS ARE 22:48 MET WHERE WE LIVE, RIGHT, SO THEREFORE WE CAN HELP 22:52 THEM, RIGHT, WITH THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE 22:53 LEARNED. 22:54 AND IT WAS AMAZING TO ME HOW WE WENT ON THIS WALK 22:56 AND WE WOULD BE INVITED IN. 22:58 I REMEMBER ONE PLACE THEY INVITED US IN -I DIDN'T 23:01 DARE TAKE A PICTURE BECAUSE WHEN WE WALKED IN 23:03 THEIR DAUGHTER WAS DOING A POOJA, A PRAYER FOR HER 23:07 IDOLS, AND WE HAD TO RESPECTFULLY WAIT. 23:10 YES, FOR HER TO FINISH HER POOJA. 23:11 THERE IS SOME PCITURES THAT YOU WOULD LOVE TO 23:13 TAKE BUT OUT OF RESPECT FOR PEOPLE YOU JUST GO, 23:16 OK, LORD I'VE GOT THE MEMORY AND I CAN SHARE THE 23:18 STORY. 23:19 THAT'S RIGHT. 23:21 OUR VISIT TO THIS AREA, THIS IS SHOWING YOU THAT I 23:25 DO HAVE TO DO SOMETHING WHEN I'M OVER THERE. 23:27 ABSOLUTELY NO, YOU WORK VERY HARD. 23:29 YOU ARE PREACHING, YOU ARE TEACHING. 23:31 THE BIG THING IS I WANT TO ENCOURAGE, MOTIVATE, YES, 23:36 AND DO WHATEVER I CAN TO HELP GOSPEL OUTREACH 23:40 WORKERS SO THAT THEY CAN BE SUCCESSFUL IN WHATEVER 23:43 THEY DO. 23:44 I'M NOT A PASTOR AND IT IS ONLY AS I GET IDEAS FROM 23:47 DIFFERENT PLACES THAT I CAN SHARE THEM AND SO THAT 23:51 IS MY WORK PART. 23:53 OH, THIS IS A SWEET PICTURE. 23:54 WHAT'S THIS? 23:55 THIS LITTLE GIRL IS PART OF A GROUP OF SCHOOL 23:57 CHILDREN WHO HAD SNUCK OFF TO THE UNFINISHED CHURCH 24:02 TO LEARN SONGS, ACTION SONGS WITH THE GOSPEL 24:05 OUTREACH WORKER AND THEY WANTED TO SAY THEM WITH 24:09 RESPECT TO THE LEADER OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH 24:12 WORKERS THERE. 24:13 GIVE NIROBINDER HIS GARLAND AND HE IS OUR 24:17 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER OVER THERE? 24:19 NO, HE IS THE PASTOR IN CHARGE OF THE OUTREACH 24:22 WORKERS. 24:23 AND HE IS WONDERFUL IN DEVELOPING, WORKING WITH, 24:27 ENCOURAGING AND BEING AN EXAMPLE FOR THE GOSPEL 24:30 OUTREACH WORKERS. 24:31 AND THAT'S USUALLY HOW IT IS, THERE IS A PASTOR WHO 24:33 IS CHARGE LOCALLY IS THAT HOW IT WORKS? 24:35 YES. 24:36 AND THEN WHEN YOU GO YOU ARE MEETING WITH THE 24:39 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS AND THE PASTOR WHO IS IN 24:41 CHARGE OF THE WORKERS. 24:42 I WORK I MEET WITH THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE 24:46 CHURCH AREA, WITH THE PASTORS WHO ARE 24:49 SUPERVISING GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS. 24:51 THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS AND THEIR WIVES 24:54 AND IT IS -AND SOMETIMES WE ALSO INCLUDE THE GLOBAL 24:58 MISSION PIONEERS. 24:59 OH SURE. 25:00 AND WE ALL MEET TOGETHER AND WE GET THE 25:03 ENCOURAGEMENT OF BEING TOGETHER. 25:05 SO, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT PEACE. 25:07 YOU'VE TOLD US A STORY OF THE DEAR YOUNG GIRL WHO 25:10 HAD THE EVIL SPIRIT AND PRAISE THE LORD HE FREED 25:13 HER FROM THAT. 25:14 AMEN. 25:15 THE MAN WHO HAD BACK PAIN WHO IS NOW SHARING JESUS 25:17 BECAUSE GOD HAS HEALED THEM. 25:19 SO, AS SOMEONE WATCHING RIGHT NOW BEV, WHAT WOULD 25:23 YOU APPEAL TO THE PERSON WHO IS WATCHING? 25:25 I AM LOOKING AT THE SMALL GROUPS THAT ARE FORMING 25:30 BECAUSE OF THIS. 25:31 WHEN WE WERE THERE THIS IS A TREAT BEFORE WE GO OUT 25:36 TO SEE THE VILLAGES, AND IN THE VILLAGES, WE SEE 25:40 THE PLACES WHERE THEY ARE HOLDING MEETINGS, GOSPEL 25:44 MEETINGS. 25:46 WHEN WE GO ON THE ROAD WE GO TO THE END OF THE ROAD 25:49 AND THIS SHOWS WHAT A ROAD IS LIKE AND THEN ADD TO 25:53 WHEN WE CAN'T GO ANY FURTHER YOU SEE ON THE 25:55 RIGHT THERE, THERE IS A PILE OF GRAIN ON THE TARP 25:58 AND SO THAT BLOCKS THE ROAD RIGHT THERE BUT WE 26:01 ARE GOING TO A VILLAGE AND THE VILLAGE IS RIGHT THERE 26:05 AND THEN AS WE GO IN THE VILLAGE WE SEE A VERANDA 26:09 THERE AND WE GO AROUND THE HOUSE TO SEE WHAT THE 26:12 VERANDA LOOKS LIKE AND HERE IS A WOMAN WHO IS 26:16 MIXING COW DUNG WITH MUD AND WATER AND PAINTING THE 26:21 FLOOR. 26:22 THAT IS SO THE INSECTS WON'T DISTURB THEM WHILE 26:24 THEY ARE WORSHIPING ON THIS VERANDA. 26:27 SO, THEY ARE GATHERING AND HAVING THESE SMALL GROUPS 26:29 HERE. 26:30 SMALL GROUPS ON THESE VERANDAS. 26:30 WELL, BEV THIS IS EXCITING. 26:32 ONE VILLAGE AFTER ANOTHER IT IS THIS WAY. 26:35 SO, WE HAVE THE SMALL GROUP MEETING, WE HAVE THE 26:38 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS GOING DOOR TO DOOR AND 26:40 THEN THE VILLAGE SO. 26:41 YES. 26:42 WELL WONDERFUL. 26:43 WELL YOU NEED MORE WORKERS, CORRECT? 26:45 FOR SURE. 26:46 YES. 26:47 WHEN WE START ALL OF THESE SMALL GROUPS OH MY, HOW 26:49 MANY MORE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS DO WE NEED TO 26:51 START MORE GROUPS. 26:52 YES. 26:53 WELL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING WITH US BEV AND 26:55 MAY THE LORD'S PEACE BE WITH YOU AS YOU WORK WITH 26:57 THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS AND PLEASE SHARE 26:58 OUR PRAYERS WITH THEM AS WELL. 27:00 THANK YOU. 27:01 AND WE WANT TO SAY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING 27:04 THE PEACE OF JESUS, THE LOVE OF JESUS AND THE FACT 27:07 THAT JESUS IS COMING AGAIN SOON AND WE WANT MORE 27:10 PEOPLE TO ACCEPT HIM AND KNOW ABOUT THAT. 27:12 SO, ON BEHALF OF "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" 27:14 AND GOSPEL OUTREACH, I'M JULIE SANDERS-KEYMER AND 27:57 MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU TODAY. |
