Hello friends, this is Paul Scharf, Church Ministries representative in the Midwestern United States for the Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry. Just asking a question, how can we serve you in the days ahead in these possibly last days of the church age? And I'm thinking here about serving you online in particular and I'm asking for some specific reasons as well. Now I'm like the prophet Amos in the Old Testament in the Hebrew Bible and I say I'm like him I'm really not like him but I'm like him in what he said when he answered to Amaziah in Amos 7 verse 14 and he said I was no prophet nor was I a son of a prophet well I'm no prophet and I'm not the son of a prophet and I'm not setting any dates but it seems like something is happening and we all know how quickly things can change after the last couple of years and it just feels to me and to many others I believe like something is going to happen in the future that's going to drive us back to having to focus once again on online ministry. And so before the crisis begins, I'd like to ask the question now and say, what would serve your needs coming from me and my ministry with the Friends of Israel? How could I be of unique help and assistance and service to you at a time like that? And I'm asking that question not just philosophically, not just for the sake of starting an interesting discussion, We're in the process of right now really evaluating some things in terms of trying to improve our online ministry, improving technologically, bringing some new equipment on board, perhaps improving the way that we approach and do things. What would you like to see? What would you like us to prepare for the time that we may need to be ready to minister perhaps for a time strictly online again. What would serve you? What unique niche could we fill? I'd love to hear your responses. You can send them to me via email at pscharf at foi.org. You can contact me through my page on Sermon Audio. I'd love to hear back from you. I'd love to get your questions, your comments, your thoughts, your responses to any of this. And so we hope this doesn't happen, but we want to be prepared in case it does. How are you preparing? What would you like to see us do that would be of benefit to you? Well, thank you for listening. Thanks for thinking with me about this. May God bless you. I'd love to hear from you. And until we talk again, this is Paul Scharf for the Friends of Israel, praying for God's best for you.
