New Newsletter Format
WayOfTheMaster.com and the LivingWaters.com monthly newsletters have been combined and streamlined. If you have been enjoying both ministry newsletters each month, now you will begin to receive two identical copies. (If this happens to you, simply manage your subscription and uncheck one of the two.) We hope you enjoy the new format!

Bouncing Off Santa
We couldn’t get a flatbed truck for the Christmas outreach. So we decided to use the Children's Hunger Fund Limo. We purchased a Santa suit, put it on one of our staff (Danny Goodall), put him into the limo, and parked it outside an apartment complex. Kids and parents packed around for Christmas gifts, and . . .

Dr. D. James Kennedy We were encouraged that Truths that Transform once again aired “Hell’s Best Kept Secret” (January 5 & 6), on their “Best of TTT” messages. It is being offered in Dr. Kennedy’s January 2006 Impact newsletter.		Lazarus and the Rich Man - New CD Set We have a new two CD set called “Lazarus and the Rich Man." One of the messages has been lifted from the 16 CD series, but the other is completely . . .		Join us for Dinner in Dallas Join us on Sat., Feb.18 at the Dallas Marriott Las Colinafor where we will be hosting a Fundraising Banquet. We will pay for the paltry poultry dinner and we will share with you all of the exciting details about expanding . . .

On Air
Way of the Master Radio is now on the air. Thank you so much for all your support. Listen to us on your local station Monday through Friday, 2-4PM CST; or online anytime... including free podcasting. And remember, this isn't just a static show... you can now interact with us like you've never been able to before! Call and talk to us on air (1-800-811-WDJD), or email us your questions and comments (studio@wayofthemasterradio.com) to be discussed on air. Please spread the news about the program, and please pray for us. Listen to this feedback we received this week:

"Twenty minutes ago I just found the Way of the Master radio program [on Sirius radio]! Oh my goodness, this is absolutely wonderful. Todd is so cool! This is incredible, I am one happy camper! I am calling everybody! But I am too chicken to call the show, maybe someday. Thank you, thank you. We were huge supporters of you guys anyway and we have ALL your stuff. This is just icing on the cake. Gotta go and listen to the show..." ~Evelyn A.

The Basic Training Course
Based on our television program, this new eight week evangelism course should be available mid-February. Kirk and Ray have been working on this for almost a year (thank you for your patience). The Basic Training Course has been specially formatted to train believers in a group setting to simply and confidently share the gospel with family, friends, and strangers. This will replace our previous course called “The Foundation Course.” We used the best of all our street interviews, added never before seen footage, including lessons on the Top Ten Questions & Objections and the subject of Overcoming Fear. Instead of “Hell’s Best Kept Secret” being spread out over three episodes (as in the Foundation Course), it is presented in one concise 40-minute teaching. We have written a new comprehensive study guide, with much more emphasis on in class roll plays, hands on experience, a “WDJD Quick Reference Card,” and ideas for local “fishing trips.” We poured our heart and soul into this new course, and pray that God uses it to train and raise up laborers.

The Way of the Master Minute
Don't miss the free daily one-minute devotional with Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort at www.Way of the Master Minute.com. This isn't something to replace your daily time with God, but something to supplement it. It's not the main course, but a little something . . .

The Third Season
We have begun writing the scripts for the Third Season, which will be an expose of the great religions of the world: Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc. We will maintain the fast-moving reality format while revealing to the viewer how each of these great religions has a common . . .

Giant Quarters - A New Kind of Tract
The “Quarter Coasters” are actually genuine coffee coasters that look like a huge quarter. If you like tracts with “getaway” time, this is the ultimate. The gospel message is in a spiral format, giving you about two or three minutes before the giddy reader even knows that it’s a tract.

Children's Hunger Fund Banquet
The Children's Hunger Fund banquet will be held March 12, 2006 in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library's new Air Force One Pavillion in Simi Valley, California. For tickets or sponsorship opportunities, please contact them at info@childrenshungerfund.org or call 818.899.5122. Living Waters and The Way of the Master are proud supporters of Children's Hunger Fund.

The New and Improved Smart Card
The Smart Card has always been a very popular tract, but we wanted to make it irresistible—so we gave it a new “high-tech” look (see new tract video). Now instead of a plain red square, the person places his thumb onto a square made with fractured iridescent foil that catches the light and changes colors as the card moves.

Survey Feel free to do a survey for our TV program and ask people what happens after they die. You can either create a form or call random numbers in the phone book, and say, “Hello. I’m doing a survey for a TV production company on spirituality in America. May I ask you a few questions? What do you think happens after someone dies? Where do you think they will go . . .		Join Us For PIE Join Ray Comfort and his team every Friday night for Pizza, Intercession, and Evangelism (PIE).

Tickets to Heaven on a Paved Road
Sent in to us from Pastor Ryan D., Hazleton, Pennsylvania

Back in August, the road directly in front of our church was being entirely repaved by the city. I had just ordered a number of tracts from Living Waters, including Tickets to Heaven. A crew of 15 men was working hard and the day was extremely hot. I knew this would be a great opportunity to witness and to be a good testimony for our church. So I went to the local convenient store and put 25 cold Cokes in a cooler with ice . . .

Do you want to contribute your witnessing experiences, tract stories, and creative evangelism ideas to the "Coffee Break" column? Send them to: share@livingwaters.com, and maybe we'll use yours! (Please include your first name, last initial, and location, in case we use your story!)
