From the field:The last newsletter of the year! Many exciting things happened this year and a lot of momentum is building for the start of the year.
There will be several upcoming speaking engagements, lectureships and special speaking events for all of us. Some of those are stated below.
This time brings much change for me as well as Kristie and I will be moving to Port St. Joe, FL this weekend! We are excited to start our new journey there as well as to grow our outreach with The Gospel of Christ in new areas. For those asking, nothing really changes for our studio/office and so on. I will be working remotely, continuing to travel a lot and will be at the studio multiple times in 2026 to record and work with Beverly there to process our videos and any other task that she needs me to do! You can still reach me at 931-492-9566 or my cell at 615-542-4384. Some of you may have seen a recent letter from us. If you have, thank you for reading and for the incredible encouragement we have had in responses. If you have not yet received the letter, in a nutshell, we have found that 4th quarter woe again this year. We started the year off with some reserves, but with many changes to our television offerings, increased costs and a couple of necessary technology purchases this year, we are currently in a deficit of about $25,000 for the year. Some have asked how they can help, and details are in the letter if you receive one; however, the easiest way to help is to go to our support page at www.thegospelofchrist.com/support and look at the options for both mail and an electronic donation. Even just $50 helps and we have launched a program called 20 for 12 to encourage individuals to consider donating $20 per month for 12 months. We have calculated/estimated that each person that does this helps us to reach 80 new souls per week! If you would like to consider that option, we can do that via ACH or also online at www.thegospelofchrist.com/20for12. Thank you so much for your consideration and continued encouragement supporting us in every way you can. As always, we would be happy to answer any questions that you may have in regards to support, amounts spent in certain areas, and so on. Give us a call or email for more information regarding any financial questions. We will share that in 2025, our 85 cents of every dollar has gone directly to broadcasting the program. That is an extremely tight budget and we are pleased to be able to keep our administrative and organizational costs to a minimum in order to reach many more souls. ============================================== The following television markets are available for congregations to sponsor (and have your name on the program multiple times!).
