00:01 Do you have superficial Bible study?
00:03 Are you longing to have a deeper, 00:05 more meaningful study of God's word? 00:08 Well, stay tuned to meet a young woman 00:09 who is using her gifts for God 00:11 and willing to share some tips and strategies 00:14 to enhance your walk with Him. 00:16 My name is Yvonne Lewis 00:18 and you're watching Urban Report. 00:43 Hello and welcome to Urban Report. 00:45 My guest today is evangelist Lola Moore, 00:48 Director of Young Adult Ministries 00:50 for the South Central Conference 00:52 of Seventh-day Adventist 00:54 and author of the "Gospels Challenge 30 days: 00:58 Through the Words and Miracles of Jesus". 01:01 Welcome to Urban Report. 01:03 It's so wonderful to be here, Thank you. 01:05 Oh, thank you. May I call you Lola? 01:06 That's fine. Great, great. 01:08 You have a very interesting story 01:12 and I love for the Dare to Dream viewers 01:15 to know about our guest. 01:17 Now you are no stranger to Dare to Dream. 01:20 That's correct. 01:21 Because you were on the first season 01:23 of Pure Choices. 01:25 Yes, I am. 01:26 And that was such a blessing with you 01:28 and all the other pastors, Pastor Seth Yelorda 01:31 and just everybody that was there 01:33 was just really a blessing, 01:35 you guys did a wonderful job. 01:37 So thank you. 01:38 And it feels good to be here, thank you very much. 01:39 Yes, yes, and now you have written a book? 01:43 That's correct. 01:45 So before we get to the book, 01:46 let's talk about your journey 01:48 and how you got to the place of writing a book. 01:51 Where were you raised? 01:52 Absolutely, I was raised in the state of New Jersey. 01:56 Yes. 01:58 And my parents, my grandparents were lovers of the word 02:01 and so from a very young age 02:03 we were introduced to reading the Bible. 02:06 And my grandmother, especially, was a lover of the stories. 02:10 So she would act out all of the stories with, 02:13 I mean, some great energy and gave us a love 02:16 of wanted to just see what the word said. 02:18 So we really enjoy sharing the Bible together. 02:22 How many siblings that you have? 02:24 Well, I have two younger sisters, 02:26 who also learn to love the word along with me. 02:29 That's so good. 02:31 So you grew up in a Christian household 02:33 and the focus was on the word? 02:35 Absolutely. 02:37 Did you ever have, 02:38 during your high school or college experience, 02:41 did you ever have any time 02:43 when you were pulled away from the word 02:45 or were you always just pretty focused on love 02:49 in the Lord solely? 02:50 Well, I mean, I would love to say 02:52 that I was never pulled away. 02:54 But, I mean, as a teenager 02:56 there are so many different things 02:57 to get into and to enjoy, 02:59 I have developed a love for music, 03:03 was very active in school, but thank God, 03:05 I was always also involved in my Church, 03:09 and still learnt to, as a young teenager, 03:13 to navigate the word in the best way 03:15 that I could at that time. 03:17 Yes, and I'm glad you said that 03:18 because that's probably one of the things 03:22 that led you to write this book. 03:24 What led you to write this book? 03:25 Well. 03:26 You know, I was sharing with some friends 03:29 my personal love for the word. 03:31 But I was realizing that not many people, 03:35 who are young, 03:36 could navigate the word with ease. 03:38 Number one, they were intimidated 03:41 because the Bible sometimes has a language 03:44 that's hard to navigate. 03:46 And then sometimes 03:47 there are a lot of different points of view. 03:49 There are people who believe that you have to be scholar 03:52 in order to understand the word. 03:54 But I understand that the Holy Spirit 03:56 has promised to give wisdom to anybody who tries. 03:58 Mm-hm. 04:00 And so I wanted to create a tool for individuals 04:02 who wanted to get started on the journey. 04:05 That's so good. 04:06 You know, when I was looking at the book 04:09 I thought this is such a necessary tool 04:13 to help people to get into deeper Bible study. 04:17 Because so many people, as you say, are intimidated by, 04:20 they don't understand like where do I start? 04:24 Like, this is, it's 66 books, you know, 04:27 do I start with the New Testament 04:29 or I start with the Old Testament, 04:31 where do I start? 04:33 So you decided to write a book to help. 04:35 Is it more targeted toward younger people? 04:38 Who is the intended audience? 04:40 Actually, my audience is anyone 04:44 who has a trouble or has some trouble 04:46 navigating the words. 04:48 So it doesn't have to be a young person. 04:50 I find that even some of our older people 04:52 are trying to get deeper in the word 04:54 and having a hard time. 04:55 So anybody who's just trying to get a start 04:58 can get started with that tool. 05:00 That's so good. 05:01 You know, one of the things 05:03 that I'm seeing in the Church is this, 05:07 there are different things from Eastern Mysticism 05:09 and things trying to creep into the Church 05:12 and we really, really have to get deeper into the word 05:16 so that we recognize the truth from counterfeit. 05:20 And one of the things 05:22 that I love about this book is you give everyday 05:26 there is some new story or a miracle 05:29 or something for people to get into. 05:31 Let's talk about the book and the way it's laid out. 05:35 How did you lay it out? Sure. 05:36 Well, we had a fun way of starting the book. 05:40 I did a live challenge online. Okay. 05:44 So I walked a group of 500 people 05:47 from the beginning of the Gospels to the end 05:50 over a 30-day period. 05:52 And we decided that we could use some sizable chunks, 05:56 about three chapters a day that we could read through 06:00 and pick out the stories that jumped out the most. 06:03 So each day you have some miracle of Jesus, 06:06 some sermon of Jesus that we, 06:09 you know, pick apart and talk through. 06:12 And actually I would like to go back and say that 06:15 that's how I started reading the Bible in high school. 06:18 I had a reading assignment in my advanced English class 06:23 to read anything 30 minutes a day. 06:25 And I decided it will be a good opportunity 06:27 to read the Bible and that's how I started myself, 06:30 right in the tenth grade. 06:32 Were you in public school? I was in public school. 06:34 And there was no push back on that? 06:37 Not at all, we could read anything. 06:38 They really just wanted us to read something. 06:40 Right, right. 06:41 And so I choose to read that. 06:44 And by Gods grace I got through the whole Old Testament 06:47 in my high school, tenth grade class. 06:50 But I thought that the gospels would be a non-invasive, 06:54 non-scary way for people to jump in. 06:57 I mean, what better way to get into the Bible and Jesus, 06:59 right? 07:00 That's what I was going to say. 07:02 I mean, really, the first step is introducing them to Jesus 07:06 and I love that about the book. 07:07 Absolutely. 07:08 You introduce people to Jesus and what He did and how He was. 07:13 And to me, 07:14 it's like once you establish that connection with Him 07:19 everything else just falls in the place. 07:20 Absolutely. 07:22 So when you did this in a high school did this, 07:26 kind of, create in you a desire 07:29 to get into the Bible more deeply 07:32 or what, how did it impact you? 07:34 Absolutely, God was merciful to me. 07:38 And one thing that I tell people 07:40 who want to get into the Bible is the first step, 07:43 is finding an easy reading translation. 07:45 Good. 07:47 Read something that you can understand. 07:50 No slide on the King James Version, 07:53 we love the King James Version for what it has done for us, 07:56 but sometimes the thee's and thou's and, you know, 07:59 the language can be a little intimidating. 08:03 So I'll choose an easy reading translation 08:06 as a tenth grader. 08:07 And seeing how plainly some other stories came out, 08:11 I mean it's a page-turner, 08:12 it's better than anything you wanted in me. 08:14 And so it was the same way when I've read the Gospel, 08:17 you know, you're just fallen in love everyday 08:19 when you see Jesus talking to individuals 08:22 just like you, you know, 08:23 people who have challenges just like you 08:26 and just like a shepherd He is gently leading His people 08:29 to love Him more. 08:30 I just, you just can get enough of Him. 08:33 It was so beautiful. 08:34 I remember, in my own experience, 08:38 I had drifted away from the Lord 08:40 and a friend came to visit me 08:42 and she had her Living Bible with her 08:44 and I had grown up with the King James 08:46 and you know the thee and thou's I was used to it, 08:49 that's what I knew. 08:50 But when she sent me a card 08:52 and in it was Philippians 4:3 I think or 4:13 and it was, 08:59 don't worry about anything instead pray about everything. 09:02 It was in from the Living Bible and I thought, wow, 09:06 I had never seen another version 09:09 so what you're saying is so true. 09:12 You need to have a version that is readable for you, 09:17 that's comfortable 09:18 so that you understand what you're reading 09:20 'cause lot of are will be, 09:21 I mean, that thee and thou thing 09:23 just put some off. 09:24 They can't, they just can't get with it. 09:26 So the first step, 09:28 'cause you're giving your steps now, 09:29 so the first step 09:30 in getting into a deeper study of the Bible 09:35 is to find a translation that is more readable. 09:40 Which ones do you recommend? 09:42 Well, there's quite a few out there, 09:44 my personal favorite is the New Living Translation. 09:49 Now, it's important, we're on the Urban Report 09:51 so I'm thinking that these statistics would be important, 09:55 that in the United States 09:56 that most adult read at about a seventh-grade reading level. 10:01 And so at the beginning of each Bible, 10:04 it will actually tell you 10:06 what grade reading level is appropriate 10:10 for this actual book. 10:13 So you have the New International Version 10:16 some challenges with that 10:18 but the Holman Christian Standard Bible 10:20 is a more advanced Bible. 10:23 It's also a plain reading Bible 10:25 but it's more scholarly in its presentation. 10:28 So those two Bibles, the New Living Translation 10:31 for just devotional reading, 10:33 and then if you wanted to do some deeper study, 10:35 Holman Christian Standard Bible, 10:37 the New American Standard Bible is also a very good Bible 10:41 for scholarly reading. 10:43 That's good. 10:44 So what happens when you read, 10:48 though, like let's say, in one translation 10:55 it won't emphasize certain things 10:57 the way another will. 10:59 Like is the New Living, is that more of a paraphrase 11:03 or is that an actual translation? 11:06 Well, so when you look at the title of a Bible 11:11 it will tell you 11:12 what the answer to your question is. 11:13 Okay. Good. Good. 11:15 So there are translations and there are versions. 11:17 Okay. 11:18 So translations contain to be more paraphrased 11:22 and versions are gonna be your deeper, 11:24 exact from the text derivative of the Bible. 11:30 So even from looking at the title of a Bible 11:33 you can tell which one is gonna give you a more of a, 11:38 like I said, devotional, a surface reading, 11:40 and a deeper reading. 11:42 See, that's so good. Yeah. 11:43 I never even knew that. 11:45 So it's important actually I would think to have both. 11:51 Absolutely. Right? 11:52 Absolutely, and I think that 11:54 this is where maturity comes in for all of us. 11:58 You know, everyone is in different places 12:01 but there is a little bit here and there 12:02 that can be beneficial for everyone. 12:05 If you can think about any story 12:08 where there are eye witnesses, 12:10 everyone has their own vantage point 12:12 and from each vantage point there are things that you get 12:15 and things that you miss. 12:16 And so it's a collaboration of the perspectives 12:21 that gives you more of a full picture. 12:23 And so if you think about it that way 12:25 you can actually use a series of Bibles 12:28 to help you to see a fuller picture 12:31 of what God's word is really saying. 12:33 This is so good. 12:35 Okay, so the first thing is find a readable Bible. 12:39 Yes. What's the second strategy for digging deeper? 12:42 Well, you know when you're digging 12:44 you have to use some good tools. 12:45 Right. 12:46 And so it's not like, you know, 12:49 some times in the 70s and the 60s, you know, 12:51 you had to buy these larger volume of tools 12:55 in order to be able to, 12:56 you know, understand concordances, 12:58 and encyclopedias, and dictionaries. 13:01 Now you can find everything online. 13:03 Right. 13:04 And so for free you can actually find 13:06 some very good Bible tools 13:09 that will help you to understand 13:10 where Jesus was when he was talking. 13:13 You can see some words and some descriptions 13:16 of His parables posts to help us to know 13:18 what He was really saying 13:19 and how the regional people would have read it. 13:22 Get some good tools to dig with. 13:25 And I wouldn't say dig in whole chapters, 13:28 if you read a chapter for the day 13:30 there might be one verse that stuck out to you. 13:32 You take sometime and study that one verse. 13:36 And find a word in there 13:39 that's interesting and look up the, 13:41 you know, meaning of the word 13:43 look up the meaning of the parable. 13:45 That's how we really grow muscles in the word. 13:48 It's not enough to devotionally read 13:50 over the scripture, 13:51 you have to also dig 13:53 so that you'll get a deeper picture 13:54 what God is saying. 13:56 See, that's such a good point because you can read something, 14:01 it's kind of like, okay, this is my devotional time, 14:05 I'm gonna give 30 minutes or whatever it is. 14:08 So I'm reading that scripture and I'm reading this scripture, 14:11 like depending on which your devotional plan is. 14:15 But you're not really digging, you just kind of, 14:18 it's just that surface reading which, you know, I mean, 14:22 there's something to be said for reading 14:24 but when you want to get into it deeper, 14:27 you're saying read over that scripture 14:29 and then see 14:31 how the Holy Spirit is impressing you. 14:33 Because there might be something in that passage 14:36 that applies to you, so read it, read it, 14:42 and read it over again. 14:43 Yeah, and the thing about scripture 14:45 that it's so lovely is that you can go 14:48 to the same scripture multiple times 14:50 and get different things from it. 14:51 Yes. 14:53 The Holy Spirit can inspire you 14:54 a new way in the same old place, 14:57 so I love that. 14:59 So, you know, sometimes we read over things and, 15:02 you know, we get bored with it, but if you trust God, 15:06 I believe that God has new and fresh living water 15:09 that he can bring from the same old text. 15:11 I love that. 15:13 Okay, so get a good version, get the right tools, 15:17 and then read more deeply, 15:21 go over a passage there is no time limit on it, 15:25 you can just sit with the passage 15:27 and go through it. 15:28 And I love the idea of like getting a dictionary, 15:31 looking up some words. 15:33 I think it's so easy to just kind of superficially read 15:37 and feel like you've done 15:39 which you've had a do for the day, 15:40 the obligatory thing. 15:42 But what you're saying is dig deeper. 15:46 Okay, so give us some more. 15:48 I think a big key that we didn't start with 15:52 but I think should be infused 15:53 in your entire Bible study is prayer. 15:55 Yes. 15:57 Often times, you know, 15:59 we can use an academic approach to scripture, 16:01 you know it's there and you can read it, 16:03 and, you know, take a blade, 16:05 you know something quickly. 16:06 But it is the Holy Spirit who gives us the eyes to see 16:11 and so I have learnt to pray and ask the Lord 16:14 to show me what the Lord has for me in a text, 16:18 in the scripture. 16:19 There are some revelations 16:20 that will come without a dictionary, 16:23 without an encyclopedia. 16:25 Of course, we have to test all things 16:27 and prove all things. 16:29 But there's something 16:30 that God wants to also communicate with us. 16:33 So we have to take some time with the Lord in prayer 16:36 and allow Him to personally communicate to us 16:39 what He has for us in that scripture. 16:41 And then ultimately I think that 16:43 all of this is meant for us to share with someone else. 16:47 There have been sometimes 16:49 when the Lord would give a message 16:50 but that message really wasn't for me, it was for a co-worker, 16:53 it was for a friend, it was for a family member. 16:56 And so I believe in sharing good news, 16:59 I believe the Bible is good news, 17:00 the gospel is good news 17:02 and I believe that when we derive good news 17:05 from a scripture that God is hoping for us to share 17:07 that with someone else. 17:08 Oh, that's great, that is so good. 17:11 This... we have a cover up for you, 17:16 we wanna put the cover up so that you can see the book, 17:19 The Gospels Challenge, 17:21 30 days Through the Words and Miracles of Jesus. 17:25 And talk about the social media platforms 17:31 that you used this book were. 17:33 Absolutely, there is no secret 17:35 that most people are connected with at least one social media, 17:40 social media interface. 17:42 Facebook is I think my favorite. 17:45 But we used several of them to connect with people 17:49 who like the audience 17:52 that I hope the book would bless 17:54 and we're looking for a deeper walk with the Lord. 17:57 And we were able, through social media, 18:00 to do live broadcasts, speaking to people, 18:04 taking their questions, 18:05 sometimes just praising God over the text, 18:08 thanking Him for His revelation. 18:10 We talk about, you know, 30 minutes, 18:12 40 minutes a day in group Bible study, 18:15 but what I was hoping to do is to translate that love 18:20 and passion that I have for scripture for others. 18:23 Sometimes the last thing people wanna do 18:25 is pickup a Bible there. 18:27 You know, already yawning 18:28 and thinking that is gonna be boring, 18:30 but I realized that, you know, 18:32 sometimes you have to have a spark to get a fire going. 18:35 So I was just hoping to be that spark over social media 18:38 and praise God it actually worked for some of our people. 18:41 That's so great. 18:42 So it is actually a 30-day challenge... 18:45 Yes, it is. 18:46 That anybody can, 18:48 you can hand this at your Church 18:50 with your youth group 18:52 and with your Sabbath school class, 18:54 AY whatever. 18:55 Absolutely. 18:57 And get people to get more involved in the word. 19:00 I just think this is a wonderful tool. 19:02 You're available to come to different Churches, 19:05 we have your website, we'll put your website up 19:08 so that people can contact you, 19:10 and you can go to their Churches 19:12 and kind of get them started on the challenge. 19:15 Gladly and inside the book that information is all there 19:18 so when they get their copy of the book... 19:20 Right, that's right. 19:22 ..they can also have all that information if they want that. 19:23 Where can they, can they get it of the website? 19:25 Absolutely, yes, they can. Good. 19:27 And they can have as many copies, 19:28 you know, all of it is available for them. 19:31 Yeah, order it for your Church, for your Church groups, 19:33 I mean, this is so important 19:35 that we can't even emphasize enough 19:38 how important it is to get into the word 19:41 and we need tools that help us to get into the word 19:45 and that's what this is. 19:46 And when I saw this I thought 19:48 we had to have you on here to talk about this. 19:49 Oh, thank you. 19:51 ..to talk about this. 19:52 So tell us some of the challenges 19:55 that people come to you with, 19:58 like in things that, 20:01 excuses that they make about getting into the word, 20:05 and why they can't do it, 20:06 and then what you tell them. 20:09 Well, we live in a society that is being overwhelmed. 20:15 And we're overwhelmed with stimuli from our families 20:20 and our responsibility to them, 20:22 our work and our responsibilities there, 20:25 but then there is also media everywhere 20:28 that's clamoring for our attention 20:30 and makes for a time 20:32 where we seldom have any space to meditate on anything. 20:37 You know. 20:38 And so, most people are trying to find anytime 20:43 to be able to do it. 20:45 And I realize that with making time for the Lord 20:50 you have to actually carve out, designate a time. 20:55 Sometimes having to wake up 30 minutes ahead of time, 20:59 sometimes having to go to bed a little earlier, 21:02 but it is the fight of our life to just make time. 21:07 And I believe that it's intentional, 21:10 our enemy who will like to choke out any connection 21:13 that we have to heaven so that we're powerless. 21:17 This is something I've been talking to people 21:19 about as of late 21:20 that because that hour is short 21:23 and our Savior is coming back soon 21:25 that we are more and more inundated with stimuli 21:29 to cut us off from heaven. 21:31 It is myth so that we will be powerless 21:33 against the enemy. 21:35 It is not something that 21:36 we're gonna be able to do haphazardly, 21:39 it's something that we have to fight for, 21:41 we have to fight for the time 21:43 to spin with heaven in the same way 21:46 that you will fight for breath if you were drowning, 21:48 we have to fight for the time to connect with heaven 21:51 so that we can be effective in warfare. 21:54 I love that, I love that because that's so true. 21:57 Distraction... 21:59 Absolutely. 22:00 ..is one of His primary tools 22:03 and I'm noticing like, I like to watch television, 22:06 it's just true confessions is good for the soul. 22:09 As Danny says, 22:10 "Good for the soul bad for the reputation". 22:12 So... 22:13 And I noticed there are more and more programs coming on 22:17 that I really like and I have to make 22:20 a conscious decision 22:21 that I'm not gonna watch so much television that, 22:24 except 3ABN of course. 22:28 Of course, they're all... 22:29 The spiritual television, that's one thing, 22:30 secular is another. 22:32 And... 22:34 But it's a conscious decision, 22:36 it's where we yield our will to God 22:39 because otherwise as you said, as you said, 22:42 the enemy is doing all he can do now 22:45 to turn us away from heaven, 22:48 to disconnect us from the power source. 22:51 And if we don't get into that word, 22:54 we won't have anything to fight with. 22:56 Absolutely. 22:57 Nothing to fight with. 22:58 So that's I totally agree 23:02 that we have to make a conscious decision to do it. 23:06 Are you finding that young people 23:07 are getting into the word more deeply 23:10 as a result of the book? 23:11 Yes. 23:13 I've had so many testimonials of individuals 23:16 who would enjoy the book enough 23:18 to start their own devotional life. 23:20 It's been beautiful to hear 23:22 how the small spark that God started in me 23:25 has started flames and fires in other people. 23:27 It's been incredible. 23:29 That's great. 23:30 How has writing this book changed the way you write, 23:34 your whole approach to writing? 23:36 And you're writing another book right now? 23:37 You know, I'm working on a couple of things. 23:42 That it taught me that 23:45 if you start little by little that it comes together. 23:50 I had always assumed that you had to sit down 23:52 and write in the entire book in about three or four days, 23:55 I don't know why but I was made that assumption. 23:57 Did you really? 23:58 I did, but God allowed me to write that book 24:02 one devotional at a time. 24:04 I sat down to my computer 24:05 and just wrote one day at a time. 24:08 I didn't overwhelm myself with two or three days, 24:10 just one day at a time based upon the reading 24:13 that I had done that day. 24:15 And when I did it that way, it was manageable. 24:19 I would love and when I'm working on, 24:22 it's a project about Hope. 24:24 We have so many people who have lost hope 24:26 because of mistakes they've made in life. 24:29 And I believe that God can use my testimony 24:32 along with the testimony of so many other people 24:34 in scripture to show that 24:35 as long you have God you have hope. 24:38 That's so good. 24:39 Indeed. 24:41 So your focus right now is on giving people hope 24:46 that they can begin again in Christ? 24:48 Absolutely. That's so good. 24:49 Because so many people feel as though I've gone too far, 24:54 God can't forgive me, I'm not good enough, 24:58 I'll never be good enough that kind of thing. 25:00 So you're giving them the one thing 25:02 that people need, yeah, 25:04 of course, besides Jesus, of course, 25:07 people need hope of a better tomorrow. 25:10 Yes. So how are you approaching this project? 25:13 Well, my major focus is that 25:16 Jesus Christ represents the hope that we need. 25:20 In scripture there are so many pictures 25:23 right in those gospels of Jesus coming to people 25:26 who were at the end of a bad decision 25:30 and infusing them with the hope 25:32 that because He was a part of their life 25:34 so they can start again. 25:36 It's like the woman at the well who has, you know, 25:39 basically spent all with her reputation, 25:42 she is out there by herself and Jesus lets her know, 25:45 you know, if you know 25:46 who I was you'd ask me for living water. 25:49 I can put a well inside of you 25:51 that will spring up into eternal life. 25:53 I mean, isn't that beautiful? Yes, yes. 25:54 I'll not only give you the resource 25:56 but I will make you a source of the resource for others. 25:59 Yes. 26:00 And God wants to do that for all of us 26:03 to take us from our dry places 26:06 and put inside of us the very thing 26:08 we were searching for. 26:10 Now we become a tributary to other people. 26:12 Just beautiful. I love it, I love it. 26:14 And I love your passion for the word 26:16 and your passion for Jesus, 26:18 and your passion for your ministry. 26:20 Thank you. Praise God. 26:22 How are things going in South Central Conference 26:24 with Youth Ministries? 26:25 Absolutely fabulous. 26:27 We've been doing some wonderful things 26:29 we have some conferences coming up, 26:32 namely one for young women. 26:34 We're hoping to inject and infuse hope 26:38 and good decisions in them. 26:40 So we're working on some things. 26:42 It's been really good, the response has been great. 26:45 We've been fighting for our young adults as you know, 26:48 they are disappearing demographic in our Churches 26:51 across the board, 26:52 Protestant Churches across the board 26:54 are losing our young adults. 26:57 We're trying to find some solutions 26:58 to get them integrating into our churches. 27:00 So please pray for us 27:02 as we work on those initiatives. 27:04 Yes. Yes, we will. 27:06 And I also have to say that 27:09 your name is no longer just Lola Moore. 27:12 Indeed. It's Lola Moore Johnston. 27:14 Yes, it is. 27:16 And your husband Keith is with us. 27:17 Yes, he is. 27:18 He's so nice, congratulations... 27:20 Thank you very much. 27:21 I'm so happy for you and thankful for all 27:24 that you've been doing with your ministry 27:26 and authoring this book and the one to come. 27:30 Praise God. So make sure you get that book. 27:33 Thank you so much for being with us. 27:35 Thank you for having me. I appreciate you. 27:37 And keep us in prayer as well 'cause, you know, 27:39 the enemy is really very busy trying to distract folks 27:44 from watching Dare to Dream, 27:46 from watching Christian television, 27:47 and for just from being a part of the walk. 27:52 So we thank you for all that you're doing. 27:54 Indeed. 27:55 And thank you, I can't believe 27:57 that we've reached the end of another program. 27:59 Make sure to join us next time 'cause you know what? 28:02 It just wouldn't be the same without you. |
