December 2008
It is hard to believe that twenty-five years have come and gone since
Melanie and I accepted God's call to ministry. Much has happened since
that October day in 1983 when we first sensed God uniquely stirring our
hearts. But through the joys and trials - and a couple of million miles
traveled, God has been there with us!
We've been afforded some awesome opportunities and made life-long
friends. However, the most marvelous blessing of these 25+ years has
been the thousands of people who have come to Christ.
To us, this is exactly what the ministry has been all
about - rescuing the lost. Just as our missions statement declares
"Take A Stand! Ministries
exists to see the lost saved and the Church changed by the power of
Jesus Christ."
As in the beginning, we are still using practical Bible-based
apologetics to shine the light of truth on the enemy's work. With your
help, we will continue for many more years.
The road God chose for us has not been without obstacles. Being away
from home and family ministering out on the road over 200 nights each
year has been anything but easy. However, the rollercoaster of finances
has often been the biggest test. But through it all, God has provided
everything by touching the hearts of people to give to the ministry and
see every need supplied.
So, as we end another year and begin our next 25 years of
service to the Kingdom, we remind you that without your partnership we
could never have accomplished His calling to "Take A Stand!" As 2008
comes to a close, please consider us in your year-end giving. Also,
remember that we need your support in January as we prepare for another
season of travel, outreach and soul-winning. Thank you - Thank you -
THANK YOU!
