Letters from Viewers
“TBN has been my total lifeline 24 hours a day. I am like a
sponge. I was saved at 60 years old in 2010 while in front of
my TV.” — Tacoma, WA
“I just want to say thank you on behalf of inmates around the
world. It’s because of you that I’m able to hear the word of
God 24/7. You don’t know what it means to a guy who’s been
to church all my life serving in so many capacities to lose all of
that. To go from being in church every Sunday to not being
able to go at all. You guys do an awesome work. Thank God
for Paul and Jan Crouch. I’m so glad they hearkened to the
voice of God.” — Walla Walla Penitentiary
“I am partially disabled and get such deep benefit from TBN
ministry.” — Spokane, WA
“I am incarcerated at Airway Heights Correction Center. I have
the ability to watch TBN here. I watch a lot of your shows. I
believe in my heart we are entering the time when Christians
will be persecuted without the threat of punishment. We are
also told that we cannot pray openly, that even includes over
our meals. Please pray for us, we need it badly.”
“Thank you for all your loving work and dedication for all us
out here! You are so very much appreciated and in my
prayers. I love you, my dear family!” — Camano Island, WA
I love the Lord with all my heart. I am from Europe but love
this USA. The Lord has been with me my whole life—I am 76
years old—and I trust in him completely.” — Chehalis, WA
Seattle Praise the Lord!
April not only brought spring to the Pacific Northwest, but a blessing to KTBW-TV’s Seattle Praise the Lord program.
The theme of our April in-studio program was “What Is God Doing to Empower You to Be a Blessing in the Marketplace?” We need to disciple others, even to the point of being “midwives” or “parents” to them.
Guests included Julaine Smith who felt that God has called her to raise up women in the business world, to help them start and run profitable companies.
Tony Bianco, an on-line marketing executive, said that marketplace Christians should not hide the gifting God has given them.
Phil Cerna, an entrepreneur who has grown a number of business ventures over the past 30 years, considers himself a pastor to business people.
Nelson Yung, a digital marketing strategist, was a “prodigal” who was raised by a single mom and came back to the Lord because of her prayers. “It is important to remember where you came from,” he said. “I once was there, but now I am here.”
Nathalie Armstrong suggested that to reach people for Christ you need to break bread with them, to get into their lives.

Joy in Our Town Guests...
Mike Lonergan, Pierce County Assessor/Treasurer, who explained the property valuation and taxation process. “The government doesn’t want people to lose their homes because of their inability to pay their property tax. We want property owners to pay their fair share, no more and no less.”
Mike Johnson, CEO, Tacoma Rescue Mission. “Most single homeless people have never had the advantages of a loving supportive family. We need to craft a way for them to get back into the community, not through programs but through relationship.”

Dr. Charles Emlet, Professor of Social Work at the University of Washington, Brenda Milewski, Puyallup Area Aging in Community Committee, and Bob Riler, Pierce County Aging Resource Center. “Aging can be a beautiful thing, a wonderful opportunity. Yet there’s often a lack of respect from the younger members of our society.”
We also interviewed former East German Michael Furchert, Christian speaker, writer, pianist and composer, for our Seattle Praise the Lord program. “Growing up behind the Berlin Wall, I learned early to defend my faith in Jesus Christ in a secular society and a socialist educational system.”
