I have been telling you about the BIG things that God is doing in a tiny quiet town in West Texas. And I have told you about their world wide internet radio ministry. That's just one facet here. Here is another one.
Dr Ned Hicks - for many years has a Correspondence Bible School for prisoners across America. Alone and by himself he has written an entire curriculum that has been sharing the Gospel of Jesus in prisons across America for years. Without any fanfare, no one watching, or public honors or encouragement, he has been silently shouting the Gospel into the darkness with the written page. He is one of God's partners in the earth.
Now in his years of warring faith his health has become a struggle to maintain amidst the hundreds and hundreds of souls he carries. So the Lord has sent a fresh change and a fresh breath of Heaven to him in his burden. The Bishop.
Joe - Dr Hick's assistant has been working with the flood of inmate letters and exams day by day. And this ministry has increased 100 fold over time.
It's loads of paperwork, copies and files that keeps growing year by year!
Dr Hicks begins to show me letters and letters and letters from inmates searching for God's help in their lives. My heart is so touched by seeing all of this. This ministry now is over 5,600 people strong and in 43 states and British Columbia. Dr Hicks has honored us by asking us to take on this tremendous ministry.
I am thrilled beyond words!!!
I can see how he needs help..... can we do it? YES WE CAN.
Taking notes, and details of what the day to day schedule is, I am literally handling souls that are finding their way to God every day here.
The Bishop and I are honored to get to be a part of this great man of God's vision! I know New Life will also be happy as they have a heart for missions.
