Maelstrom Report

Prayer Warriors, I don't report as I ought during the season. Things move quickly. But I want to give you enough so that you can pray on point, if you're moved to do so.

CBN arrived a day early and shot all day yesterday. Gailon Totheroh, CBN Senior Reporter and science correspondent, was taken with the Star. He has ample material on tape to do a strong piece, and I know he intends to put the Star Project in a positive light. We need to pray that he will cut a great piece and can succeed in getting it aired early and often. Also that his producer will allot him appropriate time. The piece will likely be 5 - 10 minutes long. He expects it to be translated and broadcast in Central and South America, as well.

PBS will shoot here on December 11 for a piece they will air on their Religion & Ethics weekly magazine. It should be around 7 minutes. I feel good about the relationship developing with the producer, and have high hopes for the piece.

Today, I present in Colorado Springs. Got up at 4.30a, only to be socked in by fog. Could have slept until 6a! I'll nap in CoS before I present.

If you have time, join me in prayer.

"Father, stamina. Jesus needed it. He went into the wilderness to be alone with you because he was constantly surrounded by people. He loved the crowds, but he needed to recharge. Each of us labors hard and needs to recharge. Sometimes the holiday season makes that need greater. Help us to learn from the habits of the master. The best example of living a human life well. We ask that the media people who touch your celestial poetry do it with respect. We ask that you message survives being massaged by people with agendas of their own. We praise you for the way your DVD is being accepted by so many! Go, Lord! Now, help us calm before you, as did Jesus. Help us remember that Christmas is His, Christmas is yours! We love you, Lord! And we pray in His name, amen."
