Posted by Shawn

Kids 4 Truth is pleased to announce the release of their latest dynamation, “Creation’s Voice.”

Contact: Bob Roberts, Kids 4 Truth, 866-754-4272

MEDIA ADVISORY, Sept. 20 /Christian Newswire/ — Has the God of the universe spoken? Yes, He has. He has communicated His existence in such a way that no one can avoid His message. God’s created universe continually heralds the truth of His awesome presence and power.

In other words, Creation is speaking. Are you listening?

Whether they enjoyed the privilege of hearing a preacher carefully articulate the Bible, or whether they never once heard the name “Jesus Christ,” all people who have ever lived on Earth have been exposed to God’s revelation of Himself as almighty Creator. The testimony of the created universe is so clear that nobody could ever claim a legitimate excuse for failing to acknowledge that God is real. We are all accountable to answer to Him and to seek after Him.

“Creation’s Voice” graciously confronts viewers to stop, look, and listen carefully to the message that “nature” has been broadcasting for thousands of years. We must pay attention to the greatest Reality that ever was or ever will be: GOD.

Nuthin’ But Dogs News: Dogs and Developmentally Disabled Unite for Special AKC Event

Posted by Shawn

Date of Article: September 20, 2007

– AKC Educational Match at Hunterdon Developmental Center Invites Dog Lovers to Learn About the World of Canine Competition –

The American Kennel Club® (AKC) will hold an AKC Educational Match on Saturday, September 29th on the grounds of the Hunterdon Developmental Center (HDC) in Clinton, N.J. In the world of canine competition, the word “match” refers to a dog show that is intended for newcomers or those who want to practice dog handling skills without actually competing for Championship points.

The event is open to the public and offers a friendly forum in which to learn about the sport of purebred dogs as well as an opportunity for Hunterdon residents to partake in an event which will have therapeutic benefits for both man and animal. Hunterdon residents have benefited from ongoing interaction with dogs since 1994 via a number of other AKC events held on the grounds, therapy dogs who make regular visits and the employees who bring their dogs to work every day.

Several dozen of the HDC residents will contribute to the event in numerous ways. They will kick off the festivities by singing the national anthem, accompanying dogs and volunteers in the ring for an “Honor Parade” and “Parade of Breeds” and serving as trophy presenters.

“Many of our clients have a great fondness for animals- dogs especially,” says Connie Butherus, HDC’s Human Rights Committee Chair and the liaison between AKC and HDC. “The dogs enjoy the attention and reward the residents with never-ending demonstrations of affection. The combination of the residents and the dogs is a win-win situation. It is so inspiring to watch the mutual affection that is given and enjoyed, to the benefit of all.”

“Many people enjoy watching dog shows on TV but don’t realize that it’s a fun, family sport that’s easy to get involved in. Learning to show your dog can be intimidating to a novice so we are holding this unique event specifically to create a welcoming and educational environment for newcomers,” said Gina DiNardo Lash, AKC spokesperson. “We are so thankful to Hunterdon for use of their grounds and thrilled to be able to encourage the beneficial interaction between dogs and the developmentally disabled.”

Dog owners in attendance will learn how to groom, train and show their dogs with the help of AKC staff and local area AKC club members. The educational portion of the event — running 9 a.m. through noon — is free and open to anyone with an interest in dogs. Planned activities include:

* Handling classes for adults and juniors
* Grooming demos and one-on-one tutorials
* Dog show 101 classes - how a dog show works, descriptions of different classes, how to become an AKC Champion
* Dog show entry assistance from an AKC licensed superintendent
* Equipment advice - breed specific advice on equipment and tools
* AKC Canine Good Citizen information and testing
* Agility, Obedience and Rally demos

At 10:00 a.m. an AKC C-Match will be held for Obedience and Rally, at noon a Junior Showmanship competition will be held and at 1:00 p.m. an AKC Conformation B-Match will be held. CGC Testing will be open to the first 40 dogs that sign-up and will be held from 11-noon and 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm. The entry fee for the match is $5.00 per dog for Conformation and $5.00 per run-through for Obedience and Rally.

Scripture-Tees News: Bill Keller World’s Largest Internet Evangelist Calls Osama Bin Laden to Repent and Turn his Life Over to Jesus Christ

Posted by Shawn

The leader of LivePrayer.com an internet ministry that has over 2.4 million subscribers worldwide reading his Daily Devotional, releases a powerful video asking Osama and his American born right hand man, Adam Gadahn, to give up the false religion of Islam and get saved.

Contact: Bill Keller, bkeller@liveprayer.com; WDC Media PR, 877-862-3600 ext. 2, office@wdcmedia.com

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Sept. 16 /Christian Newswire/ — Bill Keller who is seen by thousands daily on Florida’s WTTA TV 38 has blanketed the internet with a video message that speaks directly to Osama Bin Laden and all of Islam. The message has been submitted to over 50 U.S. video hosting sites, 100 international sites and 30 Islamic sites in a saturation plan to reach Osama.

Keller says, “Osama, since you seem to be a fan of video messages, I thought this would be the best way to communicate with you.” Following the taunting message Osama recently released and seen by millions of Americans, Bill Keller’s message is as timely as it is controversial.

Although the evangelist has been blasted by Arab American organizations like CAIR he refers Osama to the historical facts about the doubtful beginnings of the Islamic religion. Keller’s honesty makes the revelations of Salmon Rushdie look tame by comparison but the message is lovingly delivered even without any punches being pulled. Keller said, “As someone God has called to lead people to faith in Jesus Christ, I believe that even an evil man like Osama Bin Laden’s heart can be changed.”

An army of people are praying for Keller’s success many of whom watch his ground-breaking television program and read his cutting edge Daily Devotional. Liveprayer receives and sends personal responses to over 40,000 e-mails for prayer each day. The video directed to Osama Bin Laden can be seen on LivePrayer.com

Bill Keller is the internets premiere evangelist. He hosts “Live Prayer AM with Bill Keller” each day for one hour starting at 7:30 am on Tampa’s WTTA TV 38. His no nonsense style of evangelism is refreshing if not radical. Keller stays close to his Biblical worldview and quotes from the bible constantly in his presentations. He doesn’t clamor for money but calls attention to everything gone wrong in America. He delivers his daily messages with compelling authority and conviction and keeps the last five messages archived online so his viewers can see any they have missed. With guests often as interesting as him, the broadcast is anything but boring. Live Prayer is soon to be aired nationwide on the i network (ION TV) formerly known as PAX TV.

In 1999 Bill Keller launched LivePrayer.com; it has gone on to become the most successful online faith ministry in the history of the internet. Live Prayer is now providing a daily devotional written by Bill Keller for its over two million e-mail subscribers. Information on how and where to watch the broadcast is available at www.LivePrayer.com

Scripture-Tees News: Press Release - Asian Religious Youth Leaders Reject Abuse of Religions, Forge Consensus at Regional Summit

Posted by Shawn

(SINGAPORE, August 30, 2007)/Religions for Peace/—Asian youth leaders will forge an alternative to religious extremism and the violent abuse of religion in support of violence at the Summit of Asian Religious Youth Leaders, 4–7 September 2007 in Singapore. The event will bring together youth representatives of major pan-Asian religious organizations and religious youth leaders from 18 countries.

The summit will be held at the Raffles Town Club, 1 Plymouth Avenue, Singapore 297753. The Summit will be co-sponsored by Religions for Peace, Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS), the Inter-religious Organization in Singapore (IRO), and Majlis Ugama Islam Singapore (MUIS). The event is open to the press.

Violent threats to peace are manifested in conflict, war, terrorism, arms proliferation, extreme poverty, environmental degradation and human rights abuses in many parts of Asia. Religions are often misused by extremists, unscrupulous politicians and sensationalist media to incite violence and hatred. Youth are often exploited as a consequence of such abuse of religions.

The alternative is the world’s religious communities cooperating effectively for peace. Action-oriented examples of inter-religious cooperation will be shared by youth leaders from 18 countries in Asia. In Indonesia, the Religions for Peace affiliated inter-religious organization engages women and youth in preventing and transforming conflicts. In Cambodia, young Buddhist monks, in partnership with religious leaders from other faiths, provide rural villagers with non-violent conflict resolution skills. In Mindanao, the Philippines, Muslim and Christian youth leaders are at the forefront of inter-religious mediation. China, South and North Koreas, and Japan have been consolidating their sub-regional inter-religious network to discern their common values and address their common concerns. Muslim, Hindu and Christian communities in India are working together to address the plight of HIV/AIDS.

Asian youth leaders’ creative undertakings will be further strengthened by the solidarity of the Religions for Peace Global Youth Network. Dr. Hayder Abdul Karim, an Iraqi Muslim, 32-year-old medical doctor and Religions for Peace coordinator in Iraq, will share his own experience in advancing Sunni, Shia, Kurdish and Christian inter-religious cooperation in Iraq. Ms. Avigail Moshe, an Israeli Jew, a member of Religions for Peace International Youth Committee, will present her work on the building of Jerusalem Inter-religious Youth Council as an instrument for peace in the troubled region.

RELIGIONS FOR PEACE GLOBAL YOUTH NETWORK

Religions for Peace Global Youth Network harnesses the energy and commitment of religious youth leaders all over the world to advance the mission of multi-religious cooperation for peace.

The Global Youth Network gained full momentum in 2006 when the six regional inter-religious youth networks were launched in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, North America, as well as in Latin America and the Caribbean. Concrete success in mounting action programs among six regions has inspired donors to award funding to carry out similar projects around the globe. Today, the Global Youth Network is developing pilot programs to confront some of our most urgent challenges—building peace, addressing environmental issues, and coping with the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

Concurrently, the youth are working to mainstream youth and youth issues into Religions for Peace programming activities at the local, regional, and global levels. This important work is led by the International Youth Committee (IYC), comprised of fifteen members representing the world’s faith traditions from six continents. The IYC was first established at the Sixth World Assembly in Riva del Garde, Italy, in 1994, and the current members were elected at the Religions for Peace VIII World Assembly in Kyoto, Japan in August 2006. Currently, the Religions for Peace Global Youth Network is led by its newly elected Youth Coordinator, Ms. Stellamaris Mulaeh, who also serves as Pax Romana’s national coordinator for peacebuilding in Kenya.

The Global Youth Network seeks to advance its work of mobilizing power of religious youth, building strategic partnerships with the United Nations, inter-governmental institutions, and civil society organization, and implementing action programs through national and regional inter-religious youth networks.
