Dear Friends:

From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank you for the tremendous encouragement extended to the families of Vision Forum Ministries by so many of you. This month we also want to make you aware of two special offers:

First, for those who send in a donation of any amount between now and the end of the month, we will send you as our gift, a copy of our previously unreleased message on compact disc, Manly Friendships. This message is probably unlike anything you have heard before, because it addresses an issue that is rarely discussed: The true nature and meaning of biblical, manly friendships. It explains how one develops such relationships, the way that God uses these relationships in the work of the Kingdom, and why such relationships must be nurtured and treasured.

Second, Vision Forum Ministries has purchased fifty sets of the greatest Bible commentary in print: John Gill’s Exposition of the Old and New Testament. These have been among the most prized possessions in my library for close to two decades. Doctrinally, I believe them to be the most trustworthy one can find. They are also the only verse-by-verse commentary of the entire Bible ever produced. A friend recently wrote me and told me that the grand historical and biographical introduction to the set alone was worth the price of purchase. This set (about to be discontinued) originally retailed for $300, We are offering it between now and the end of the month for those supporters who would like to make a significant finanical contribution at this time to help us continue in the work which the Lord has set before us. These resources will help us with our efforts to maintain our staff and operations which are necessary for the work of our conferences and this year’s Jamestown Quadricentennial: A Celebration of America’s Providential History. Of course, we will also include a copy of the compact disc, Manly Friendships. For more information, visit the Vision Forum Ministries site.

If you are unable to support the work of Vision Forum Ministries financially, we humbly ask you as our brothers and sisters in Christ, that you would remember us in prayer. We are a team of families first aspiring to be faithful to the Lord as parents with our own children, but secondarily as Gospel preachers and missionaries to the American family. We recognize our deep need for the blessing and the favor of the Lord in all that we do. Your prayers mean the world to us.

With Love in Christ,
Doug, Beall, and the Staff
