May the Lord watch over and be glorified in all that goes on on that site as well as this one. Thank you.
Words cannot express my deep sorrow for the loss of Gary Smalley. He was an inspiration to be around and he was a great over-comer.
He overcame academic difficulties by writing bestselling books that everyone could understand. He overcame hurts and offences by forgiving and helping millions to follow his steps to freedom. He overcame conflicts by learning how people think and sharing what he learned.
He overcame discouragement by seeing positive benefits and inspiring man...y to follow his outlook. And now he has overcome death by entering into his eternal rest and the great rewards of his life. There will always be a special place in my heart for Gary, for Norma, and each of the children.
Love in Christ,
Bill
I was recently sent this picture taken at my 81st birthday. I was blessed with a surprise party at my home and I was encouraged by those that were able to be there. Please pray for me as I look to the Lord for the year ahead with its challenges and wonderful opportunities.
I am giving thanks this afternoon for many things and wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving.
On Sunday morning, August 23, 2015, I was given the opportunity to present to a church in Wisconsin the powerful truths which God graciously taught me during the past 18 months of day and night meditation.
After the first hour of speaking there was a 5 minute break for those that wanted to leave. The pastor was amazed that no one left. The overflow crowd listened attentively for a second hour and then 60 leadership people stayed on for a third hour of questions and answers. ...
Pastor Olsen has stated that in his 17 years of ministry at his church he has never seen such excitement about actually carrying out God's way of life.
On Thursday evening, October 8, 2015, God brought together over 40 leaders representing 4 nations and 4 significant professions for a 3 day conference. The same material that was given at Pastor Olsen's church was presented to them.
The first woman senator of a nation of 90 million people was at this conference with her husband. She reported that the prime minister of her nation had just sent her an urgent appeal to return and help them during a time of crisis. She stated, "The truths that I have just heard are exactly what my nation needs and must hear, and I am dedicated to make sure that this happens."
The recently retired vice president of world sales in 147 nations for IBM stood and said, "I have never heard the truths that have been presented today. They have transformed my life. Every person in the world must hear these truths."
A doctor with thousands of patients that come for treatment from America and many other nations declared, "All my patients must hear this information. It will resolve their stresses and produce lasting healing!"
The senior pastor of a 6000 member church with a television ministry stated, "Every member of my church and ministry should hear this message and I intend to give it to them."
The life-changing truths created a one-accord power and fellowship in the entire group. Every man was trained and equipped to share this seminar from his own experiences in accordance with 2 Timothy 2:2, "The things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also."
There was such a joyful fellowship among every person in the group that an unexpected and spontaneous initiative spread among them to provide funds to make sure that this message reaches the world. One man wrote a check for $20,000!
The next step is to bring in thousands of leaders and equip them to effectively communicate this "new seminar" to the world. Please pray for the Lord's guidance in this endeavor.

The result of crying out is a wonderful demonstration of His supernatural power to achieve all that is needed.
His promise, so long ago, is just as true for us today.
I am so thankful for the outpouring of thoughtfulness and support during the last 18 months as I have faced the greatest trials of my life. God has been so faithful and even in discipline has stood with me and encouraged me like never before. Through all of this He has given me treasures and insights I could never have imagined. It is my earnest desire that I will be able to see His blessing ministered into the lives of each of you with the time and strength He continues to give me.
As we consider where to invest our time in 2014, remember the laws of the harvest: We reap what we sow & where we sow, we reap more than we sow & in a different season than we sow.
- Went through the then Called ( Institute of Basic Youth Conflicts )... Now called ( Institute in Basic Life Principles ) 3 Times Live. I am currently going through it again. I have and will continue to apply the principles learned from the Seminar. Has and continues to be helpful. See More
- Thank you for your ministry and standing strong on the principle tha...t the Bible is sufficient for all areas of life. I hope you learn whatever lesson God is bringing to you through these trials and are able to keep leading others toward the truth. The slanderblogs have been attacking many, many conservative leaders. Anyone can see their aim, since many of the complainers out there have complained about not being accepted for their homosexuality, and they stand for the feminist doctrine that has crippled our families and killed so many babies. It's just the war against biblical thought, though God allows it so that we can grow in grace, shedding our sins and fears. See More
- We've heard the same story over and over again. But as Christians, w...e have a holy responsibility to love each other and to communicate the grace that God showed us in our sin to our heavenly family. How can we expect to be effective in the world and hope for grace for others when we ourselves are failing to show grace to each other? "Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. For each will have to bear his own load. Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith." (Galatians 6:1-10) See More
