Highlights from Letters to Power 88

You have no way of knowing how much you support me on a daily and some times moment to moment basis. I can remember the time before Power 88 and I do not want it to go back to that.

Library loses in Court

 

 

A California library has been ordered to let a Christian group use its facility. The Contra Costa County Library had refused to let Faith Center Church Evangelistic Ministries meet at the Antioch branch.

Baptist Cut Ties with Church

 

 

Southern Baptists have ended a 125-year old relationship with a Texas church over gay members. The annual Southern Baptist Convention, meeting in Kentucky , decided to dismiss Fort Worth ’s Broadway Baptist Church. The church had a controversy arise two years ago about whether to include photos of same-sex couples in the membership directory. The congregation decided to compromise by including group photos rather than shots of single families. Here is more about the photo controversy. Staff members say the church has taken no stance on gay issues.

 

 

 

 

 

Jon and Kate

 

 

Kate of Jon and Kate Plus 8 was featured in a video series for a Chicago megachurch called Families at their Best. But now that the couple featured on the TLC reality show are divorcing, Willow Creek Community Church is trying to reach out to Kate Gosselin. The live interview between her earlier this year with the church’s teaching pastor drew a large crowd. They discussed her faith and family. However, TLC would not allow the program to be recorded.

 

 

Video Game Murder

 

An Ohio pastor's son says he killed his mother for taking away his video game. A judge sentenced Daniel Petric to 23 years in prison for shooting her and his father. Petric says she tried to stop him from playing Halo 3. He had been playing it as much as 18 hours a day. The judge in the case said in his ruling, “I feel confident that if there weren't such things as violent video games, I wouldn't know Daniel Petric.” His father is pastor of New Life Assembly of God in Wellington , Ohio . He told the judge that the family had forgiven him and asked for leniency.

Engineering at the Transmitters

The Goforth Media stations were off the air at times last week while engineers made repairs at our transmitter sites. The work included replacing a high voltage transformer in the Power 88 transmitter, measuring and tuning the WLPR/WBHY antenna system, Installing a Digital SCA Encoder, hooking up the Digital SCA Receivers and other needed work. The pictures are at http://user.goforth.org/more_Station_Events/Events2.htm  

 

 

Indifference from God’s people

 

The Goforth Media Christian radio stations have become such a permanent fixture along the upper Gulf Coast it may be easy to assume the radio ministry will continue indefinitely. But the truth is that God will keep this station on-the air and the only thing that can put an end to the outreach is indifference from God’s people. Our Lord has given us a reminder with music and word of His presence in our lives each day. But if we choose to neglect His gift, He will not force it on us. Let’s make sure Power 88 never leaves the airwaves because we fail to take care of it. You can support Christian Radio today by clicking here or Write PO Box 1328, Mobile , AL 36633.
