Welcome to Gospel Truth with Andrew Womack, celebrating 55 years of ministry.

Andrew, I just, I can't thank you enough for taking the vision that God showed you and being so faithful with it.

You honor God's Word, you honor His Spirit.

Thank you for listening to God because so many lives have been changed.

And now, here's Andrew.

Welcome to a very special edition of the Gospel Truth broadcast.

You know, this is the 55th year anniversary of when the Lord changed my life.

And I've spent a lot of time, I go back and remember all of the time, but especially in this 55th anniversary,

I've spent a lot of time just thinking about all that God has done in my life.

And I tell you, it's supernatural.

It really is.

This isn't just personal, although it is personal, but God has touched me and used what He's done in my life to literally touch millions of people in the growth that we've seen.

And the extent of our television outreach, our Bible school, all the materials and just so many other things, it's miraculous.

So I asked my staff if they would just help me to somehow or another celebrate this because I believe that it's not only an anniversary for me, but this is a blessing to so many people.

So my staff has put together a little thing where I just walk around and greet some of our staff, ask them to talk about what's happening in their department and their segment of the ministry.

And I believe that this will bless you.

And really, this isn't about me, this is about the faithfulness of God, and if God will do this for me, He'll do it for anybody.

I think that this will encourage you.

So listen and watch this as we celebrate 55 years of ministry.

Since March 23rd, 1968, Andrew has had many chances to give up.

From the terrors of war to the hardships of pasturing a small church in Siegeville, Texas,

from the uncertainty of teachings to an invisible audience on radio for decades, to a Bible college that outgrew every building we tried to put it in.
