The First Time
"The first time I put the principals of "Law to the proud/Grace to the humble" into practice, it was upon myself. I examined my own heart by the standard of the Ten Commandments..." |
Ray Comfort |
The Monkey
"Recently, a friend told me that a Christian woman went into her house, closed the door, fell on the floor, and pleaded with God to forgive her. Her fiance's father had suddenly committed suicide. There were no warning signs. He wasn't saved, and she had never bothered to witness to him..." |

Evolution vs. Intelligent Design
The controversy between evolution and intelligent design is huge at the moment, with school boards being challenged by many to allow intelligent design to be presented to students as an option to the theory of evolution. So we have put together "The Evolution Package." The package includes five copies of the award-winning DVD "The Science of Evolution" FREE ($60 worth of material for $40). These are for you to send to your local school board members. The cover has been designed so that there is no indication whether it is for evolution or intelligent design, so that viewers can watch it with an open mind. Here is what you get in the package:
1. The Evidence Bible (pocket version). Answers to 100 commonly asked questions and objections to the Christian faith, including many about evolution.
2. God Doesn't Believe in Atheists (192 pages). Makes the atheist backslide by proving the existence of an Intelligent Designer. Very humorous. Great gift for the unsaved.
3. The Way of the Master for Kids. Proves intelligent design in a way kids understand.
4. Did the Butterfly Evolve? (greeting card tract). More compelling evidence for intelligent design--open the card and a butterfly flies out.
5. Scientific Facts in the Bible (96 pages). Quick reference book of scientific facts that prove that creation is right and evolution is wrong.
6. And you get five copies of "The Science of Evolution" free of charge. This DVD doesn't follow the normal format of having different experts presenting evidence for and against the theory of evolution. It instead lets evolutionary believers put their own foot in their mouth, simply by asking them probing questions about the scientific basis of the theory. As the program evolves, Kirk and Ray take an orangutan to lunch, where the three of them discuss the theory over salads. They also call eight major airlines and ask if a "relative" can join them on a plane.
Living Waters Australia and Europe
The exciting news is that two more agents have opened their online doors: Living Waters Australia and Living Waters Europe. Now those of you who live in these areas won't have to pay the high overseas shipping costs to have access to the ministry's videos, teaching materials, and tracts. Also keep your eyes open for Living Waters Africa... coming soon. |

Christmas Ideas
Don't pass up the many opportunities this Christmas season to share the gospel with those around you. Think about all the people in your circle: your relatives, neighbors, the mailman, the UPS driver, or your work mates.
Our Christmas Special this year includes: four copies of What Hollywood Believes (softcover), three of 101 Things Husbands Do to Annoy Their Wives (hardcover), and three of Life's Emergency Handbook (hardcover). We will also throw in a free "The Narnia Story" CD. Instead of fattening up neighbors and friends with a box of chocolates this Christmas, give them something that will send them to the cross. $25.
Perhaps this would be a good time to give "The Greatest Gamble," God Doesn't Believe in Atheists, or "The Science of Evolution" to family and friends who are resistant to your witness. Check out our Christmas Gift Ideas for other suggestions on maximizing this opportunity. We also have great gifts for the Christians in your life to help them learn how to tell others about the Savior.
Strangers seem to be much more friendly and receptive this time of year, so we should be prepared to take advantage of this season. Here are some more ideas:
- Go to the malls and hand out the Printable Christmas Quiz Tract, or give one to the cashier/salesperson each time you shop.
- Have a float in the Christmas parade and hand out Million Dollar Bills or the Printable Christmas Quiz Tract.
- As crowds are gathered to watch the Christmas parade, offer people hot chocolate and a tract, or take them through the Christmas Quiz.
- Send the Christmas E-Card.
- Fill small gift bags with small toys/trinkets, homemade Christmas goodies, fresh fruit, and a tract, and have your Sunday school class or youth group go caroling door-to-door. Do this in the poorest neighborhoods in your town, and you will be so blessed!
The Way of the Master Radio Fundraising Banquet
The Way of the Master Radio program will begin airing on January 2, 2006. If you'd like to be involved in getting this unique program on stations worldwide, there's still time for you to sign up to attend a fundraising banquet in Los Angeles. Over four hundred people have registered to join Kirk, Ray, and Todd Friel on December 2 to hear about this exciting opportunity. We would love to see you there. For more details just follow this link.
Getting the Secret Out
A Christian sister in Sydney, Australia, asked if we would allow her to send out the "Hell's Best Kept Secret" CD to the pastors in her city. We were delighted to work with her and formulated a letter with some encouraging endorsements for her to include. The following week 1,368 pastors in Sydney received free copies of this powerful, life-changing message. Please pray that they take the time to listen to it. You might like to do a similar mailing in your city. We can provide the letter in PDF format, and if you are sending the CD to pastors, you can get them professionally packaged in shrink-wrapped jackets for just 60 cents each.
Narnia CD
In addition to the free email tract that you can send to lost friends and relatives, we now have a Narnia CD available, thanks to Kingdom Tapes, Inc. This 16-minute evangelistic message has been produced for the unsaved, and is priced so that you can afford to give it away. You can listen to the very clear gospel message by Ray (introduced by Kirk) online at www.NarniaStory.com.
Left Behind III
The Left Behind: World at War DVD includes a specially adapted version of "The Firefighter" (an episode of "The Way of the Master" TV show) at the end of the disk under "Special Features." Please pray that the many Christians who watch the movie also watch this program, which challenges them about their evangelistic responsibility. The Left Behind DVD is also now available for purchase through our ministry.
Local Ministry
Because of ministry commitments, Ray turns down most requests for him to speak long distances from the Southern California area. However, he is available for churches nearby. Inquires can be sent to schedule@livingwaters.com.
Join Students Worldwide
Do you want to deepen your passion for the lost and for God? Almost everywhere Ray and Kirk travel, they meet excited Christians who have enrolled in the online School of Biblical Evangelism. Whether you're a pastor who wants to turn his church upside-down or simply a Christian with a desire to reach this world with the gospel, you can join 5,800 students worldwide and learn to witness biblically and defend the faith. In 101 online lessons, Kirk and Ray will help you prove the Bible's authenticity, the deity of Jesus, reality of hell; refute evolution, atheism, other religions; and more. There are numerous benefits of enrolling--in addition to the 101 lessons, you will receive copies of free books and CDs, access to over 45 audio messages, discounts on products, and other bonus materials.
