Extracts from letters to TBN UK

Edwina: “I am writing to thank you for the Grace and Hope journal I just received. This book is a wonderful blessing and full of our Lord’s living word and truths. It really couldn’t come at a better time, as I need his encouragement right now.”

Elaine: “Many thanks for your continued hard productive work. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the Bible Code. God bless you all. Much love.”

Ian: “Thank you all for your faith- building programmes. As I have no access to internet etc. please tell Pastor White just how much his talk about Moses really blessed me this last Tuesday. He is a great encouragement to me among all your wonderful young up and coming preachers. God bless you all.”

Sheila: “Dear Friends, as an elderly lady of 91, conf ined to living in the house and not being able to walk very well. Last summer in 2015, I was unable to sleep so I got up and switched on the TV and changed the channels. I was about to give up when I came acrossTBN UK, and what a blessing it has been to me, especially as I am not able to go to church. Church services have been brought into mybedroom. Thank you for the wonderful awe inspiring programmes we are viewing. Thank you for the gifts received from each month. Myprayers and love go out to all of you.”

Joy: “I am writing to thank you for the wonderful, genuine and balanced ministry we are able to receive through the blessing of the TBN channel. It has truly been a blessing, comfort and encouragement to me, especially as through illness I rarely manage to go to church or enjoy other Christian fellowship. I am encouraged and uplifted by the TBN ministry. Sometimes I feel too weak and unwell to lift my Bible and read, and my mind too scrambled to pray, but so often at these times when I switch on to TBN, the exact, perfect word, teaching, ministry that I have so desperately needed is on at that moment. How kind our God is!! Then I am reduced to tears, tears of thanksgiving, tears releasing sorrow, pain and grief. Tears as I am touched by his love, tears of joy. So thank you, thank you.”

Anon: “Just to say thanks for the books and all the work you do – it is excellent and you are brilliant!! Have a great week!!”

Ruth: “Many thanks for the journal sent after I became a partner. Since f inding TBN UK on Freeview I have been blessed with so many of your programmes. I pray that lives will be touched and saved by this broadcasting, I will pray to this end as the Lord leads me to support monthly.”

Elizabeth: “Thank God for TBN UK. It is wonderful to hear all the great preaching. God bless you with love in Jesus.”

Extracts from letters to TBN UK (continued)

Dian: “Dear Richard and Leon and every member of the worldwide team that work so tirelessly to produce such programmes for us. Thank you. In this land like it says in Amos 8:11, there is a famine of the hearing of the word of God in this land. Thirty years agoI became a Bible believing born again Christian. Many churches do not preach or believe the Bible. I didn’t know about Richard Dawkins, but just thinking about the apostle Paul on the road to Damascus – is there anything too hard for God? Thank God for the people who do understand that through the Holy Spirit that prayer changes things and people. I have seen this in my own family and I am overjoyed and excited when I heard on Sunday night that over 1000 more people had become partners. God is so faithful to answer the prayers of His children. Praise his name!”

KJ: “Thank you for all the help I have received through TBN UK. I found your channel in October and started listening to Joseph Prince.I have tuned into his early morning programme every week day since then and through the holiday periods, recording each slot and making notes. His messages have opened my heart to Jesus, renewed a passion within me to follow Him, speak of Him, and want to pour out my devotion to Jesus. I know I am righteous because Jesus is righteous. I love the thread of Jesus in the OldTestament being lit up in the New Testament in fullness of grace and truth. I am not a scholar but the Holy Spirit is enabling me to remember theHebrew and Greek revelations of how God has been and is at work amongst his people. I am now rich beyond compare in the word and revelation of Christ. Increasingly there has been a nudge to move from my comfort zone into whatever Jesus requires of me, so I am to retire from paid work in the next few months in order to – as one friend mentions, “be ref ined for him.” Therefore, please receive the enclosed donation for your ministry. Many blessings upon all of you.”

Anon.: “Can never thank you enough for TBN UK. Joseph Prince ‘s teaching is wonderful. I cannot believe I can have this teaching at least 3 times a day awesome! Think with Andrew Wilson is excellent. Can we have more stuff like this? Leon Fontaine’s messages are Wonderful, as are Bobby Schuller’s. TBN UK is stylish and professional. Well done! It is all a really good balance. Glad to see Jewish Voice also. Freedom Church is excellent!”

Pauline: “It’s great to have channel 65. I have it on constantly. Keep up the good work. God Bless.”

Anthony and Ruth: “Dear friends, thank you so much for the books and CD you sent. They are a blessing to us now in our old age. May the Lord continue to bless your work.”

Dennis: “I asked Jesus into my life when I was 3 years old. I am now 72. He has been faithful through all those years. And now, thanks to you at TBN. He is teaching me why! What a wonderful God we serve!”

Extracts from phone calls to TBN UK

Dianna: We prayed with Dianna for healing over cancer in her lungs. She was watching 700 Club and they were praying for someone with cancer in the lungs. Dianna claimed the healing and on Friday she was watching again and they said that someone is healed and she claimed it. She now feels that the cancer is now completely gone. She has a follow up scan on this Friday and she is feeling conf ident. She will call with the outcome.

John and Priscilla: They absolutely love TBN UK. They both gained so much from the channel while they were looking for a new church. Priscilla has started a Facebook page called “Friends who love TBN UK.”

Ernest: “TBN has really helped me in my Christian life. Not every Christian channel is Christ centred but I am so pleased that TBN is sticking to the word of God. It is the real deal.”

Kathleen: “Thank you for a wonderful morning’s television. There were some men talking about their lives. (She doesn’t know the names of the programmes but) I have been watching TBN all morning. You’re getting better and better every week.”

Sheila: “I’ve been a believer for a long time but drifted away from Christ. I found TBN purely by chance scrolling through Freeview and through TBN UK I came back to the Lord. I am rejoicing that God has placed TBN in the UK.”

Esther: “God bless you for the TV programmes. They saved my life. Pastor Prince is my favourite because he’s a very wise man. In each situation, he gives revelation in the Lord. I study with him. I’m very happy with the TV (channel). I play it all the time.”

David: “I love the preaching by the gentleman about fully functioning faith (Destiny’s Pastor Andrew Owen) ....”

Angela: “I am really blessed by TBN UK. Thank you for all the work you are doing.”

Paula: “TBN has been a blessing in my life when I was really down so I wanted to help TBN in some way. This (her donation) is my act of faith. I am to be an instrument of God. It’s been the best thing in my life for the last few months. I’m happy to be doing this (her donation). You have no idea how TBN has changed my life. All the preachers on TBN like Joel Osteen and Joseph Prince – have savedme, and have saved my Spirit. My TV is always on TBN.”

Anon.: “Thanks for prayers. I am much better. Found out the reason. GP sorted it out. Prayer was wonderful.”

“Such a great programme (Young Soldierz). To see young people hungry for the LORD was a true delight. I will continue to pray for this great organisation, particularly the pastor and the young lady that had such a strong testimony. Well done to all at TBN for continuing to provide such wonderful content. God bless.” – John

“Just watched Empowered 21 and was inspired in my walk with God. Superb inspiring words. TBN does wonderful work. Particularly helped by Momentum and The Call to Ministry. Keep up the good work TBN UK.” – Susan

“Joyce Meyer and Potters Touch – Thank you for the above programmes which have helped sustain me when I needed it.” – Wendy

“Thank you so much for this channel. I thoroughly enjoy listening (and watching) especially during the nights when I f ind it hard to sleep. The teaching is so good and something for every taste, but no matter what taste it is biblical based. I cannot fault the teaching. Thank you TBN, long may you grace our TV screens.” – Angela

“Thank you so much for TBN UK. There are some real gems of programming featured on the station. I have really been enjoying the Hour of Power broadcasts on Saturday evening – especially as my non-church attending spouse also watches the broadcast with me.Joseph Prince of New Creation Church and Pastor Hagee are also favourites. I consider TBNUK – and the programming provided freeto millions of UK homes – to be playing a vital role of support in the worship life of many UK Christians who need guidance and Spirit-f illed encouragement outside of the normal Church environment on a Sunday. God bless this station.” – Philip

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the video by Clayton Jennings, that really touched me in a powerful way and made me realize that there are some Christians out there who are not there to judge gay people but to show us the same love that Christ showsus and treat us with the same respect that we have for them. Peace in blessings to you all, in Jesus' Name. Amen!”
