THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK (3ABN) ASKS
DAVID GATES TO RECORD FOUR SESSIONS OF
"CHRISTIAN CONCERNS"

November 4, 1998

There is a growing sense of spiritual interest in our world today. People are sensing their need for something more, and are searching for spiritual answers. The enemy of souls, intent on derailing honest searchers into a fruitless chase for peace, has many counterfeit solutions on display, while the true solution, a close relationship with our Creator, is frequently overlooked.
[Gates recording
David Gates recording "Christian Concerns" at 3ABN
Focusing on the specific needs of Truth seekers, the Three Angels Broadcasting Network (3ABN) began producing a special series entitled "Christian Concerns". It features different speakers on discussing a variety of spiritual subjects relevant to growing in Christ in today's world.

After hearing David preach a sermon on sacrifice and service at the Marion SDA Church, a member of the 3ABN staff suggested that perhaps it would be a good idea to film these same subjects on Christian Concerns. The administrative staff of 3ABN agreed, and scheduled the whole day of November 4 for recording. Normally, it would have taken only half a day to record the four sessions, but a few technical complications resulted in several restarts and one longer delay. As a result, the majority of the day was spent filming. Never having been before the camera for so long, David was encouraged by the Holy Spirit, and according to him, did much better on 'live' camera than in practice. The repeated technical problems were unusual for the floor and technical staff, who stated that it appeared evident that God had overruled the enemy's intent to disrupt the filming of these special topics.

The following subject areas, which included photo illustrations, were discussed by David:

COMMAND TO GO: A call to obedience and dependence on God
SACRIFICIAL GIVING: Giving opens doors to receiving
PROMISE OF PROVISION: God's provision for his people
TIME TO SPRINT TO THE FINISH LINE: Pulling out all the stops

If you are able to receive 3ABN broadcasting via satellite or television, monitor their program schedule for upcoming events of "Christian Concerns". Once the first program featuring David appears, the following three parts will appear at one-week intervals following the first program
