Very soon, my son, Royal, and I will be leaving for Papua New Guinea for a time of ministry in churches, schools, and special meetings! We are very excited about this opportunity and wanted to share some of our vision with our friends.

The Country

Papua New Guinea is an island nation just north of Australia. It has historically been one of the most isolated nations in the world, having basically no outside contact until the 1930’s. It was a land of spiritual darkness known for headhunters and cannibals. Many regions of the country are quite poor and continue to be isolated since there are no roads anywhere close to them.

My Connection

Wontok Radio is the largest Christian radio network in PNG. For over 10 years they have broadcast “Redeeming the Time” across their country. Whenever I meet Christians from PNG they almost always tell me they know the program.

The Mission

We will be visiting several regions of PNG, including the highlands and the capital, Pt Moresby sharing the challenge to redeem the time. We have seen a good interest from churches and schools who want to learn more about how to spend their time on what matters most, both now and in eternity. Both Royal and I will be sharing.

How Can You Help?

Pray for us! PNG has a very high crime rate along with many diseases, such as polio, typhoid and malaria, which we don’t experience here in the US. Pray for our safety but most of all pray for our effectiveness and that God would use us in a special way during our time there. The dates of the trip are May 28- June 12. We will have a final service in Australia with a Romanian church on the way home.

As God leads, we also welcome your help with the expenses of the trip. We are asking nothing of the people of PNG. Yet there will be thousands of dollars involved in making it all happen. If you would like to help us with this challenge you may donate here with your credit or debit card or mail a check with PNG on the memo line to:

Daily Planning Questions

As a Christian, planning your day is not a process of inventing your own goals and agendas, but of discerning and detecting God’s directions for the day. That is best accomplished by asking the right questions each morning. Choose a few of the following questions which best resonate with you. Put a star by them. Then use them to plan your day and anticipate the exciting results!

 

  • Questions to focus on God’s best
    • If today were the last day of my life, how would I choose to spend it?
    • What does God want me to do today?
    • Who am I most likely to encounter that needs my help or encouragement today?
    • Where have I seen God blessing in my life recently? Should I do more of that activity?
    • What do I feel passionate about? Could my day take on greater significance by devoting more time and energy to that cause?
    • What task is there that I, and only I, can do, that if done well, could have great results in building God’s Kingdom?
  • Questions to help you produce more
    • What can I do today that will matter in 5 years?
    • What can I do today that will matter in eternity?
    • God has given me a unique set of spiritual gifts. Where can I apply those gifts to realize the greatest possible results?
    • What is the 20% of my day that produces 80% of my results? How can I increase my results by enlarging that 20%?
    • Who do I need to partner with to multiply my effectiveness?
    • What skills could I learn or improve upon to achieve my goals?
    • What is the biggest problem in my life right now? What can I do about it today?
  • Questions to develop Godly character
    • Who can I serve today without expecting anything in return?
    • What fruits of the Spirit do I need to work on today?
    • What promises and commitments do I need to keep today?
    • What have I been procrastinating on that needs my attention today?
    • Which area of my life is lacking and needs my attention today: Spiritual, Financial, Family, Career, Health, or Social?
  • Questions to avoid many dangers, toils, and snares
    • What am I most likely to do today that would keep me from doing the thing I should do?
    • Where did I fail yesterday and how can I avoid making a similar mistake today?
    • Of the many things I could do, which one should I do?
    • Where are today’s interruptions and distractions most likely to arise from?
    • How can I simplify my life today? What clutter can I cut out? What can I delegate?
    • What would it take to end today with no regrets?

Dear Friend of LifeChanging Seminars,

I wanted to let you know of a cost-effective opportunity to help us encourage thousands of people to redeem the time each day!download

Our daily radio program “Redeeming the Time” is currently heard on hundreds of radio stations around the world.  Many of those station contacts have come from my meeting station managers at National Religious Broadcasters Convention over the past 15 years.

NRB is the professional association for Christian broadcasting ministries.   Many of the major leaders of the Evangelical community have some association with it.  You can learn more about NRB and the convention by visiting NRB.org.

In past years we often had sponsors to help us with the expenses of attending the convention.  Unfortunately, we now need one or more new sponsors to keep our radio ministry thriving by participating in the convention.  Since we never ask for donations on the air or in our meetings, I am making this need known only to those who have followed our ministry and believe our message is worthy of your support.

Here are the costs associated with our participation in NRB:

Annual Membership $557

Basic Convention Registration $525

Convention Meals (optional) $80 per person

Spouse Registration (optional) $300

Lodging & travel to convention $400

Materials to hand out at convention $200

If you would be interested in sponsoring any aspect of our radio ministry, you may send a check to:
