It airs there at 8:30 p.m Sunday and 10:30 a.m. Monday (these are Mountain Time). The response continues to be excellent, with first time callers at an all time high. If you are one of those who watch Forgotten Truths, then welcome! We are glad you're here.
• KEEP UP WITH REGULAR GOINGS ON via our blog at GraceLifer.blogspot.com. While this site is designed to be a teaching venue, the blogs gives a more personal avenue of expression. There I'll keep you up-to-date (sort of!) on what is happening as we press forward with the nuts and bolts of life and ministry. So, visit the blog, bookmark it and return often. Don't forget to let me hear from you, too.

• Our Southern California Conference was a wonderful time, filled with special blessings. The studies were outstanding and are on the www.Helpersofyourjoy.com site.
• WE ARE GREAT GRAND PARENTS! Spiritually, that is. Shorewood Bible Church gave birth to a daughter, Shorewood--South, several years ago on the southside (of course!!) of Chicago. Under the leadership of Pastor Art Johnson, South presented us with a "grand daughter" a couple of years ago by giving birth to Westside Grace Ministries, located in Oak Park, IL. Pastor Michael McDaniel has now lead this young ministry in giving birth to our first Chicagoland "great grand daughter," Kelley Temple Bible Church. Pastor James Kelley is leading this new church and he can be heard over WYLL (1160AM) radio, Sundays at 6:00 p.m.. April 6th we enjoyed celebrating their first anniversary with them in a great service. Their choir is outstanding! Pray for all these ministries as we press forward with the task of planting sound grace churches across the Chicago area. Our motto: "Reaching the World by Reaching Chicagoland." Our vision is to see 150 grace church established in this great metro region.
• THE OBSERVANCE OF THE LORD'S SUPPER has long been a point of contention among various branches of Christendom. Paul's instructions in I Corinthians 11 make it abundantly clear that it is designed to provide special instructive value for the local church. Rethinking The Lord's Supper is an article by Richard Jordan that provides insight in both the meaning, procedure and value of the Lord's Supper. You can also listen to a recent study preached at Shorewood Bible Church the morning they observed the Lord's Supper together.
• EVER WONDER WHEN CHRIST WAS REALLY BORN? You can know, inspite of all those who say otherwise. Read a transcript of The Real Miracle of Christmas, taken from a study of Luke 1 that will help you answer for yourself this important quesiton.
• TWO COMPLETE SETS OF GRACE SCHOOL OF THE BIBLE CLASSES ON DVD has been shipped to communist China. Through contacts with "underground" house-church networks, these classes will be distributed among literally thousands of believers hungry--and receptive--for the message of grace and the Word rightly divided. Pray for these developments. It will not be until the Judgment Seat of Christ that we learn the fruit. There are scores of "new" grace believers across China! UPDATE: Already underway is an impressive project to translate the classes into Mandrian along with the training of key pastors. Click here for a more detailed report and to read our article, "Two Asian Giants and the Gospel of Grace."
• THE MOTION PICTURE VERSION OF DAN BROWN'S BLOCKBUSTER NOVEL, THE DAVINCI CODE, has created quite a stir. While neither the book nor the movie are the "be all and end all" of such stories, the uninformed will no doubt take much of this to heart. Numerous works have been produced to demonstrate the lack of historic credibility in Brown's work As I read the book (yes, I read the book, but only after it came out in paperback--and I have seen the movie too!) I kept wondering how Brown could have made such obviously bogus assertions when he knew they would be easily rebutted. Although I haven't yet seen this pointed out in other reviews, I think this can be explained by the hidden code embedded in the story by the author himself suggesting his plot should not be believed. Read about it here.
• GRACE SHOOL OF THE BIBLE is now being made available on DVD as well as VHS. We are working to also make it available on the internet. Stay tuned for developments!
• THE CURRENT ISSUE OF THE GRACE JOURNAL is now on-line. We trust you enjoy the Bible studies and news updates. Click here.
• MARVIN TAYLOR SINGS AGAIN on his latest album, See What the Cross Has Done. Once again Marvin thrills our hearts with his beautiful singing and clear grace-oriented message as he performs twelve more gospel songs. The title song is another original by Marvin and once again the mix includes old time favoites. If you enjoy good gospel singing, done "southern style," you will want this for your enjoyment and edification.

• Seeing sound doctrine operating in the reality of a believer's life is an exciting thing. Recently we received an article from a dear friend that demonstrates the "real answers" that grace provides to the "real issues of real life." Take a moment and read this penetrating look into the inner working of God's Word in the open heart of a saint who learned a touching lesson about "not I, but Christ." "All the doctrine I had stored up seemed to slip away. Emotion took over and I didn't recognize myself anymore....I tried to hold up under my own steam...." Sound familar? This is a testimony you need to read. To read "The Night Season" click here.

We have entered into a 52 week contract so be praying for this outreach effort. We also will need financial support to keep the program on for the long hawl. The response to Forgotten Truths has been overwhelming. There are multitudes who need the message we proclaim and it is important to be getting it out into the market place through efforts like this.
