Wednesday Addition

I don’t think Rev. Franklin Graham will mind me passing this invitation on to you.

Here’s a wonderful Thanksgiving Day opportunity you won’t want to miss! FOX News Channel has just announced that they will re-air “The Cross”with Billy Graham on Thursday at 10:00 p.m. EST

You can simply invite those who are with you—believers and nonbelievers—to sit down and watch this special program together, and don’t forget to pass the word about this broadcast to others via email, Facebook, and Twitter.

This is a way all of us can be a part of fulfilling the Great Commission. We were told to “Go therefore and make disciples…” (Matthew 28:19, ESV). Each of us can use our living room—or wherever we happen to be—to share the truth of the Gospel this Thanksgiving.

More than 2.5 million households watched “The Cross” on FOX News Channel when it was first broadcast three weeks ago, and many more showed the program to friends on video. We have heard from tens of thousands of people who responded to the Gospel in the last three weeks as a result of this broadcast. I trust you will make the most of this special opportunity.
