Introducing REAL LIFE - REAL TALK!

Mar 22

Dear Real Life, Real Talk Partner,

Your generous financial support makes it possible for REAL LIFE – REAL TALK to move forward in the vision God has mandated for us at this time, in this season. In addition, your prayer support has granted us Godly favor with film, archaeological and religious leaders on both national and local levels.

The task of making certain that REAL LIFE – REAL TALK is building a strong Biblical foundation, has at times seemed “larger than life” but God has faithfully proven Himself over and again. So much is happening that we’re excited to bring you, our Waymakers, updates in two key areas:

I. PODCAST

Our podcast will be the flagship production of REAL LIFE – REAL TALK and will include a three prong approach:

Interviews:
To date, we have booked a Medal of Honor Recipient, an Israeli Flying Ace, an NYPD police officer wounded in the line of duty, a respected politician, a former drug smuggler who now smuggles Bibles and a world renowned archaeologist. You will be encouraged, thrilled and challenged as you hear their “real talk” sharing “real life” experiences of overcoming impossible circumstances.
“Round table” discussions:
One-on-one and small group gatherings of “everyday folks” who will be engaging in “real talk” about “real life” issues. The conversation promises to be lively, insightful and honest.
Biblical teachings:
Whether challenging traditional norms or drilling deep into end-time prophecy, we’ll be inviting you, the listener to come along with us on what promises to be both eye-opening and faith-building journeys.

II. ONSITE TEACHING

At great effort and cost, we have secured filming rights and permits in:

    1.    Israel (in the cities of Jerusalem, Tiberius.)
    2.    Italy (in the city of Rome.)
    3.    Greece (in the cities of Corinth, Phillipi, Thessalonica.)
    4.    Turkey (in the cities of Galatia, Ephesus, Colossae.)

(I’m certain that the names of the cities that we’ll be exploring give hint to the Books of the Bible that we’ll be studying.)

*Film permits are secured and are effective for the next 2-4 years, depending on filming location. Like everything else, permits are skyrocketing, so we are blessed to have these expenses locked in at significantly reduced cost! In addition to the cost of filming permits, (which grants us access to Biblical and early church history sites,) and rights, (which protects our content,) we’ll be hiring local techs to assist with video, sound and light. We’ll also be required in Israel and Turkey to have licensed guides and security on site.

Like the REAL LIFE – REAL TALK PODCAST, our onsite teaching will be three prong:

Archaeological:
What does the ancient past reveal about the people, culture and customs of Biblical times?
Historical:
Do these first century churches still exist? If so, why? If not, why not? What details surrounded their birth? What caused their demise? What lessons can the 21st century church learn from the churches to which Paul wrote divinely inspired letters?
Prophetic:
What insights were given to these churches that we need to heed? What lessons from their succeses and failures can we learn and practically apply to our lives?

God has helped us accomplish what we were told could not be done! We continue to face challenges, but are determined to be faithful to His call. There’s an old saying, “If we do the difficult, God will do the impossible,” that we’ve literally witnessed fulfilled before our eyes!

If you were to ask, “How can I partner with REAL LIFE – REAL TALK ?” my answer would be:

PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! For open doors, continued favor, good health, local church and conference schedules and safe travel.
Please consider supporting our efforts with your one-time or monthly donations. Our cost of permits, travel and hiring necessary professional personnel is staggering.
Let us hear from you! We’re eager and honored to confidentially hold your request and need up to the Lord in prayer.

You are our REAL LIFE – REAL TALK Partners - our Waymakers - and without your support, none of this would be possible. We love and appreciate you!
