Fund Raising For TV Series: 15% Complete
The fundraising for a Planet In Distress TV series on Hope Channel is about 15% complete, as a bit over $1500 has been raised or pledged so far toward this $10,000 goal. I will be meeting with a Hope Channel producer in January to hash the details out and, if things somehow go off the rails (which, sadly, happens often enough with media projects), then a Planet In Distress TV series (complete with DVD set of the series) WILL be completed with another Christian broadcaster.
Interestingly, if you go to the Planet In Distress page at the Adventist Book Center web site, you will see that a DVD set is “available”. This project was never finished before the publisher, Review and Herald, went out of business (and, for some reason, the page was never taken down by ABC, so people are still adding it to their “wish list”). It is my keen desire to complete this project and to spread the concrete indications of Christ’s soon coming as far and wide as possible. If you want to join me in giving a “Wake Up!” shout to both Christian and secular audiences, then please send your tax-deductible check to the Northern New England Conference (who has “adopted” the PID ministry and keeps the books), with “Planet In Distress” in the memo area.

Good morning Scott,
There is a piece in this morning’s Washington Post: “the Most Unconventional Weapon in Syria: Wheat” by Annia Ciezadlo. It speaks to a topic, likely of growing global significance, that you might mind relavant, interesting, and of use.
Happy to see that the funds for the TV project are coming in.
Best to you, and God bless.

Wow, Rus — thank you! This comes as I am writing a series of 10 3-minute programs that I will tape this Tuesday for Loud Cry Radio. I am working just now on the link between food price spikes and societal instability and conflict. No doubt it will be invigorating to read this article in that context.
I hope you are well and that your courage is strong!
Scott
