Devotions

Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give. Matthew 10:8

In God’s Hand in Galaxy

The internet is a great place to minister to others. We want to help you. YWAM Hollywood has created our Media Resource Center to provide content that you, and your ministry, can use to further the Kingdom of God. Most of the resources are free! Several volunteers from around the world have worked with us to create free content available for you of graphics, and other multimedia, that can be used on your websites & social media posts as you share the love of God with the world.

When I was working at the School of Music Ministries International I was blessed to work with, and become good friends with, many wonderful musicians and worship leaders from around the world. Paul Baloche and his wife, Rita, are two of those. They worked with us in several schools, and they also led worship at our local church in East Texas.

This month, for your August 2021 Free Gift, we want to share with you a Free Worship Workshop that Paul Baloche taught at the Christian Musicians Summit.

This is a wonderful Worship Workshop from our friend Paul Baloche. He teaches on ministering to the Lord in worship. You will also learn how to be creative and make songs out of the Psalms like we did last week. Enjoy!  Watch on Vimeo

A few weeks ago, my nephew sent me a video about how to publish kids ebooks on Kindle. I already have over 50 books that I have written available on Amazon, but only a few are available as ebooks on Kindle.

But, his email got me thinking…

A few years ago I was honored to go with YWAM to our Olympic outreach in Australia. I was part of the Media team interviewing Christian athletes for a documentary. I can’t go to the Olympic outreach this year, but maybe I can still create some content that encourages kids to do their best, and to know that prayer works. I decided to write and publish a few new kids ebooks about athletes going for gold medals, just in time for the Olympics.

I have three new kids e-books out for the Olympics, available on Amazon. They are published under the Destiny Center name, which is one of my publishing companies. These are “picture books” for little kids, from baby on up to about age 10.

If you have KindleUnlimited you can read them ALL for free. (After you do, if you like them, write a great review! Five stars…) 🙂 You can tell all your friends too – as the books are available, this month, for FREE for anyone with KindleUnlimited. Here is the link to the series to get you all three books: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B099CBGNFS

If you don’t have KindleUnlimited, you can still download one of the books for FREE on your Superstar Member’s page. The link to the pdf copy of the ebook will be available TODAY through next Friday.

P.S. Maybe it’s time for you to write and publish one of your books! Our “How to Write Your Non-fiction book” class can help you get started and get it done. You can find more info here: https://www.ywamhollywood.com/course/index.php?categoryid=4

And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:16 Berean Study Bible 

Did you know that our staff and other volunteers have been busy creating content for you of graphics, and other multimedia, that can be used on your websites & social media posts as you share the love of God with the world?

Well, we have!

SO, this month’s gift is letting you know about all the great social media graphics that are FREE for you to use on your websites or social media.

Here is the link to FREE resources for you in our YWAM Hollywood Media Resource Center

We created our YWAM Hollywood Media Resource Center to provide content that you, and your ministry, can use to further the Kingdom of God. Most of the resources are free!

Several volunteers from around the world have worked with us to create free content available for you in our YWAM Hollywood Media Resource Center on our website.

No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. John 15:15 NKJV 

Today I helped my Mom send a birthday card to her best friend. They have been best friends for over 50 years. They met at church. Both of their husbands worked for oil companies, and they both had young children at home that were about the same ages. They had their faith, family, and occupations in common. It made for a lifetime bond.

The more you have in common with someone, the easier it is to become friends, and also to remain friends for years. That is especially true when you have your faith in common. When you are friends with someone who shares the same spiritual beliefs as you do, you have a solid foundation for a friendship. For not only a lifetime, but for eternity!

Jesus calls us friends! And God is the best friend you can ever have! Like the old hymn says, “What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry, Everything to God in prayer!”

The free gift for MAY is a free instrumental MP3 of the song, “What a friend we have in Jesus.” DOWNLOAD IT on your Superstar Members page.

Our Superstar Club FREE GIFT to you for April 2021, is a free ebook devotional that I have put together around the Gospel account of Holy Week from the book of Matthew. You can use this book during your time of worship, prayer, and contemplation anytime, but especially during this Easter Season.

If you haven’t created your Superstar account yet, to download your free copy, you can do that from the log in page at ywamHollywood.com

Her children rise up, and call her blessed. Proverbs 31:28 KJV

I am blessed to have a wonderful Mom. Next week my Mom turns 96! 96 – WOW! For her first few years of school she attended a one room school house. She rode in a horse drawn buggy pulled by “Old Dolly” when she went to school. They didn’t have electricity to their farmhouse and her Mom cooked their meals on a wood stove. Their refrigerator was literally an ice box.

She has seen lots of changes in her life.

But one thing that never changes, is the goodness of God, and the calling that He has placed on your life!

For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable [for He does not withdraw what He has given, nor does He change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call]. Romans 11:29 Amplified Bible

In honor of my Mom’s birthday, I wanted to again give you for your March Gift 2021, the private links to The New Happy Birthday Song videos that I wrote. Private links to the 2 video versions of the song can be found on your Superstar Member’s page.
