From Addicts to Disciples

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:28:13 GMT

Did you know that you make it possible for more than one million people to tune in and watch Amazing Facts programs every week? Some of these souls have come to the very end of their ropes—people like Rich and Susan, addicted to drugs, in and out of jail, and unable to turn their lives around.

That’s why Pastor Doug is so happy to introduce to you these two precious friends who heard the Holy Spirit calling them after having watched one our programs. Their testimony will bless you abundantly … and you’ll see just how much a difference your gifts to Amazing Facts are making to grow His kingdom!

Dynamo of Evangelism

Jesus said, “This gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14). During 2011, your partnership with Amazing Facts literally sent the Good News around the globe.

Join Pastor Doug as he recounts how the Holy Spirit used your loving support to change countless lives for eternity—and how you and Amazing Facts will partner in 2012 to do even more as the work becomes ever more crucial day by day.

Surviving a Modern Lion’s Den

Tue, 13 Dec 2011 19:31:26 GMT

The only reason Amazing Facts exists—our broadcasts, our websites, our resources—is for the salvation of souls. And your partnership in 2012 was the fuel that made new life in Christ possible for so many.

That’s why we want to introduce you to Daniel, a former U.S. soldier you had a major hand in helping us reach. He was struggling in a veritable lion’s den in the middle of a warzone when, by God’s grace, Amazing Facts made our first contact with him. You’ll really want to read the whole story to understand how God’s miraculous providence worked so powerfully to change a life!

Reclaiming Faith and Plugging the Leak

Mon, 05 Dec 2011 09:29:47 GMT

“There is a serious leak of members draining from our North American churches. If this breech is not soon addressed, it will eventually erupt … causing a tragic, escalating loss of souls.” —Pastor Doug

You have the power today to do something that can turn the tide and bring thousands of missing sheep back into the fold of Jesus Christ. Pastor Doug explores the awesome opportunities we have as a church and as individual members to reclaim former members and begin growing our church when it matters the most.

How to Shrink a Planet … and Reach a World!

Tue, 01 Nov 2011 11:24:42 GMT

Pastor Doug’s outreach trip to the Muslim strongholds of Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates was a powerful, eye-opening experience for him—and he wants to share it with you.

In this very personal letter, you’ll be utterly astonished how even in countries where witnessing and open worship are discouraged … if not banned outright … you are helping Amazing Facts take the good news to those who have never heard it before.

Message of Hope

Wed, 19 Oct 2011 16:15:52 GMT

Can you imagine receiving a special message in a bottle—years and years after it was tossed into the ocean? For many, it would be like a fairytale come true.

But for Buddy, drowning his sorrows in a bottle of alcohol was no fairytale at all—and it became more like a living nightmare when he was thrown into jail for burglary and selling drugs. After his release, well, life continued to spiral downward for him until … finally … he reached his rock-bottom breaking point. And that’s when God moved in a powerful way.

Discover how God used your partnership with Amazing Facts to deliver Buddy and his family a transforming message of hope that turned their world around!

Missing Children … Found!

Wed, 28 Sep 2011 08:46:26 GMT

Perhaps enchanted by the world, some slowly wandered from their church homes. Others stopped attending because of some conflict with another member or the pastor. Perhaps a sickness or a death shook their faith. For others, the stress of work and family might have eclipsed their vibrant relationship with Jesus. Whatever the cause, now their seats at the church are empty.

But it’s not hopeless!

Join Pastor Doug as he uncovers the tragic reality of souls who have wandered from the church—and learn how you can help restore God’s missing children to their church family. It’s a message you simply can’t miss if you know one of His straying sheep!

Three Screens of Light and Life

Tue, 06 Sep 2011 14:03:12 GMT

In Matthew 5:14, Jesus says, “You are the light of the world.” These words of Christ are a declaration of purpose, a call to live a life that illuminates others for God … and they are a commission for your future! The world is a desperately dark place, and it’s getting darker as we near the end.

But out there are sincere people everywhere yearning to find hope and purpose—to see the light, and God wants them to see it through you.

A Global Flood of Living Water

Wed, 03 Aug 2011 15:00:25 GMT

Noah is one of the most extraordinary evangelists in history—not because he had many converts, but because of his faithfulness to preach an unlikely, unpopular message in a violent, sinful age. Of course, the Lord has warned us that we can expect similar conditions to Noah’s day at the end of time.

Pastor Doug now examines a different kind of flood that will come upon the world as we near the second coming. What will it be like—and how will Amazing Facts help prepare the world for it? Find out in this insipring message!

The Safest Doomsday Shelter

Thu, 07 Jul 2011 11:34:16 GMT

So many people think the best way to prepare against future catastrophe is by hoarding food and gas or stockpiling guns, gold, and supplies in some “doomsday shelter.” But according to Jesus, if you’re only thinking of saving yourself, you’re probably doomed anyway.

Pastor Doug confronts the many dire last-day predictions challenging the faith of believers—and shares the only way that God’s people can truly prepare themselves for the end of the world.
