Hello, and thanks for stopping by for today's Destin for Victory with Pastor Paul Shepard.

Glad you're with us.

Pastor Paul's message, when Jesus comes, comes your way next in just a moment.

But first, if you are a faithful listener to this program, you know that recently we shared with you the news about an unexpected financial need.

So, before we get

started today, our executive director, Alicia Greer, would like to share an update and a word of

thanks. Alicia? Thank you so much to everyone who responded to our appeal. We are so grateful for

your support. We're not all the way out of the woods yet, but I can say that

your support has helped and we're so grateful for all of you who are continuing to support the

ministry. You know, my dad often quoted Philippians 1-6 that talks about God being faithful

to complete the work that he has begun in us. And I just know that God is faithful to complete the work

that he began and destined for victory. That work did not end when my father passed. And I have

every hope and confidence that God is going to see the work through. And so we're excited to continue

to move forward. And we're so grateful for your

support. Yes, all of us here at Destin for Victory are so thankful to all of you who listen to

these messages and who so generously support our media ministry with your prayers and gifts. And as you

heard Alicia say just now, with your help, our plan is to continue bringing timeless truth for a

victorious life for many years to come.

Should you choose to make a generous gift today, we have a great resource to send as our way of

saying thanks. Our latest booklet, Access Granted. Based on the first eight verses of Romans

Chapter 5, this great resource examines what it means to be justified by faith and the blessings we receive at the point of salvation.

Again, that's access granted,
