Dear, dear partners — our beautiful world is in amess! Oh, there are still parts of this planet with

majestic splendor, but man has turned many spots intovirtual hellholes! In prayer I cried out to the Lord andasked, “Father, how long will you allow this madnessto continue?” Israel and the Palestinians; the madmanMahmoud Ahmadinejad, president of Iran, whodeclares that Israel must be “wiped off the map”; thewar in Iraq rages on with many giving their lives toestablish a free democratic nation next door to Iran.North Korea is just as crazy with President Kim Jong-ilrefusing to cease research for the ultimate weapon —the atomic bomb!

Precious partners, forgive me for opening this letter on such a downer! But we have GOODNEWS for you, our TBN family! Yes, let’stake a look at what God has allowed us to doin 2007. I will not bore you with miles andmiles of statistics, but will condense them andgive you just a few.

FIRST LET ME ASK YOU to place this letter and report for 2007 onyour refrigerator, prayercloset, or some promi-nent place in your home.Lift these excitingaccomplishments to God daily, if only fora few minutes, and ask him to open evengreater doors for 2008!

First of all, God gave us a beautiful little

studio theater in Union Square in Manhattan, NewYork City! It is virtually remodeled and ready tobecome the new home for Channel 54, soon tobecome Channel 27 when digital TV becomes a reality on February 7, 2009.

Next, we were able to acquire a nice older building in Philadelphia which is complete and we’llsoon be producing local and even international Praisethe Lord programs (wow)!

The largest acquisition was the HOLY LANDEXPERIENCE theme park in Orlando, Florida featuring music programs, dramas, a new children’ssection, and most important — the recreation ofChrist’s passion, crucifixion and, of course, His

resurrection! Praise the Lord! Many have acceptedChrist as a result of this realistic drama.Please come and see the 60 foot high re-creation of Solomon’s magnificent Templeand its new VR Theatre.

In the foreign field there were several majorexpansions: TBN’s new satellite uplink facility in

the Philippines, the hubfor all of TBN’s broad-casts into Asia, becameoperational; TBN’s Farsi

language network, Nejat TV, is sending a whole new channel to Iranand is also reaching North Americavia the Telstar 5 satellite; four TBN

On the home front, the news was just as thrilling!Three full power digital stations signed on in Phoenix,AZ; Harlingen, TX; and Ft. Pierce, FL. This completesour compliance with the FCC mandated switchover todigital broadcast format for 31 of our TBN owned andaffiliated stations! The FCC also granted TBN 125 lowpower digital channels throughout the U.S., which wewill begin building this year! Oh, I could go on and on,but the precious testimonies we receive, like the onebelow, are the greatest joy—

“THANK YOU TBN FAMILY, when I was down andout and deeply tormented, severely depressed, no moneyto phone anyone or go anywhere TBN was on…. I hadNO HOPE, TBN gave me a fresh word…that has kept megoing ever since. Only God knows how much TBN hasblessed me & my family…. TBN, I would have committedsuicide had it not been for you. I LOVE YOU ALL SOMUCH. I WON’T STOP GIVING FOR WHAT YOUGIVE TO ME IS PRICELESS.”

The JCTV, all youth network, grew by leaps andbounds! The young people love it, especially those in foreign countries. A precious 13-year old girl in Jeddah,Saudi Arabia recently wrote: “I love JCTV.

But I feel the most important report I can give comesfrom TBN’s Prayer Partner department. Again, this isonly the tip of the iceberg, since many do not call orwrite, but our staff logged 4,659 new souls in 2007 whohave received Jesus as Savior. This does not count theforeign number or the many recorded by the various TBNprogrammers worldwide! The grand total of all salvations stands at 36,606,554! Hallelujah!

Dear partners, most of you cannot go to a foreigncountry to be that laborer that Jesus prayed for and asksus to pray for. But through TBN, with over 12,000 affiliates, plus 64 satellite footprints, YOU ARE one ofthose laborers Jesus asked us to pray for! God bless you!

Yes, the Harvest truly is plenteous — but with satellite and TV, together we are MANY! Jan and I loveyou more and more with each passing year. Without you
