Upcoming Series On the Prophecy of Jesus’ Second Coming
Beginning, Sunday, August 30, Bryant Wright began preaching an 11-week series entitled "Knowing the Future to Understand Today." This series focuses on prophecy--what the Bible has to say about the end times and what the future holds for God’s people and the world. If you miss a sermon, you can view and/or listen at
rightfromtheheart.org/series. Sermons are normally available Monday afternoon following the Sunday message.
Also, you can purchase the entire series from our web site after the last message is preached. However you choose to get the message, you don’t want to miss this series!
What is Social Networking & Why Are We Involved?
You may be aware of the proliferation of web sites that help people keep up with their "friends," share pictures, chat, and update one another on what’s going on in their lives. Two of the most popular social networking sites are Facebook and Twitter. Did you know that Facebook has over 250 MILLION participants worldwide? What a tremendous opportunity for us to share our faith! Our daily devotions on Facebook
and short messages on Twitter offer words of encouragement and tell others about Christ.
Our prayer site, rightfromtheknees.org, encourages the Body of Christ to lean on, pray for, and support each other while looking to the Lord as the Supplier of all our needs.
We’ve also developed a "Google-Gadget" that will put the RFTH Daily Devotion on your iGoogle home page!
If you haven’t perused our web sites lately, please take a few minutes to see the wealth of resources available there. While there, comment on the latest devotion, request prayer or pray for someone, and if you’re using Twitter or Facebook, “friend/follow” us!
In His Service!
Jim Murphy
Executive Director
New TV Spots to Run in Late August and September
Filmed while on a ministry tour of the Mediterranean
During a recent trip to the Mediterranean, Bryant recorded new TV spots that will air the last week of August and the first two weeks of September in the morning news slots on CNN, ESPN, Headline News, and Fox News Channel. We are happy to have the visibility this schedule will bring to our messages and, as always, are trusting God for future schedules.
If you miss these spots on TV, you can always view our TV spots at rightfromtheheart.org/tv.
A Thank You to Andy Knight
We are saddened to report that Andy Knight, our web director, has left RFTH to accept a job on the web team of LifeChurch.tv, based in Oklahoma City.
Andy has done a wonderful job for nearly three years, upgrading our online tools for spreading the Gospel.
The good news is that Andy will continue to live in North Georgia and work with us on a contract basis, helping the ministry to continue growing our web presence with the same level of excellence we endeavor to achieve in all our publications. We wish Andy the best as he continues his career in the ministry.
Your Kindness Refreshes the Hearts of God’s People
From Paul while in a Roman Prison
I always thank my God when I pray for you because I keep hearing about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for his people. I am praying that you will put into action the generosity that comes from your faith as you understand and experience all the good things we have in Christ. Your love has given me much joy and comfort, my brother, for your kindness has often refreshed the hearts of God’s people. - Philemon 1:4-7 (NLT)
The kindness and generosity of you, our faithful friends, is an encouragement to the RFTH team. Your support allows us to refresh the hearts of God’s people and share the Gospel of Christ. During these difficult times, we’ve been forced to drastically reduce our radio and TV broadcasts. We are committed to our mission to share Christ but cannot do it without you!
May you "put into action the generosity that comes from your faith." My heart is always refreshed by your kindness and generosity! I hope to hear from you soon! And remember, you can always donate online at rightfromtheheart.org/donate.
To Further Our Reach,
Barry Wheeler,
Director of Donor Development
