Now I See Podcast

Bonnie Kelley uses her knowledge and experience in nursing and business development to lead the League of Volunteers, a group of 25 people doing the most good through their work at the Salvation Army.

George Matthews tells how he overcame the trauma of severe childhood abuse, forced separation from his family, homelessness, drug addiction and crime, imprisonment, restlessness and rejection, to become a successful business, church and family leader. His surprising transformation is recorded in his autobiographical book, A Walk With the Living God, and on this week’s episode of the Now I See podcast.

Bob and Debbie Long have given their lives to serving the needs of students at home and abroad. After 40+ years of youth work, when most people consider retirement, they are creating opportunities for college students in the Philippines to become the next generation of youth leaders.

Bob Long is a professor at both the Baptist Theological College, and Cebu Graduate School of Theology in Mandaue City, Philippines. He teaches youth ministry, theology, Bible and leadership courses. His wife Debbie leads the student orientation classes, and the engagement and ESL (English as a Second Language) groups. After 40+ years of working with youth as pastors, directors, facilitators and consultants in the United States, many people thought they would retire. Instead Bob and Debbie moved from the Windy City (Chicago, Illinois), to Mandaue City, a tropical island paradise in the Philippines, and joined the work the was happening there.

Since beginning their teaching at the Cebu schools, Bob and Debbie have overcome numerous challenges, from starting over in a brand new climate and culture, to knowing how to help the students, many of whom come from impoverished homes. Most recently, they struggled to keep the school open when the students were in Covid lockdown and had limited access to the internet, and when their city was devastated by a direct hit from Typhoon Odette.  The resilience and courage of the struggling students encourages and inspires.

To help bring food, clothing, shelter, education, medical care and hope to the students whose homes were destroyed by the typhoon, and to rebuild on-campus housing at the schools, a generous donor has offered to match your gifts, dollar for dollar up to $2500, through the month of July. To make your gift to the Philippine Typhoon Relief project go twice as far, give today to:

Nathan Oloumu is transforming his city by housing and educating orphans, and combatting fatherlessness by working with prisoners, planting churches that strengthen and equip families, and training groups of men how to become leaders in their homes, work places, churches and communities.

Nathan Oloumu is a community leader in Kenya, East Africa, who is transforming his city by serving the people who are most overlooked. He built an orphanage and a school that cares for 43 children. He visits prisoners to bring encouragement, hope and rehabilitation. He plants churches that help strengthen and equip families, and train men to be leaders in their homes, workplaces, churches and communities.

Nathan and his wife Florence have three children, one they adopted when the mother died in childbirth. They have given their lives to serving their community, and now they are inviting us to unite with them on their noble mission. $35 will feed, clothe, educate and provide medical services for a child for one month. $15,000 will allow them to purchase reliable transportation to bring food and supplies from the market, a child to the hospital, or create opportunities for Nathan to meet face to face with the prisoners, church planters, and discipleship groups he leads. $10,000 will buy property where 40 tiny houses will be built at a cost of $40/unit. These homes will give shelter, safety, security and a sense of dignity to needy families. When these homes are rented, they will supply enough income to cover the costs of all the other projects and make them sustainable long-term.

To give, visit our site, https://nis.media, for a link that will take you to a ministry partner (Chosen to Speak) that is able to get funds to Nathan.  To talk to Nathan directly, use:

Kyle Turner’s life turned upside-down when his daughter Maegan was diagnosed with a neurological disorder that required 24/7 care, a role he joyfully embraces. Hear what being a father and grandfather mean to him this week on Now I See.

Six years in the army and fourteen years as an owner/manager of six high profile health and fitness centers helped Kyle Turner become tough. Being a husband, a father of three, and a grandfather of three has made him tender. This is especially evident in the way he cares for Maegan, his daughter who was diagnosed with a neurological disorder that requires 24/7 care. Kyle found a job he could do from home so he could be present and provide for his family. In the course of Maegan’s care, Kyle and his wife Vernetta learned more than they never wanted to know about seizures and medications, breathing treatments, feeding tubes, palliative career, cognitive and muscle therapies. They have spent more than 900 days in the Neurovascular Intensive Care Unit (NVICU), and even more on their knees in prayer.

—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I never saw this as a burden,” said Kyle, who embraces the opportunity to show a high level of extraordinary care for his family. Rather than feeling like he’s missing out on life, Kyle insists he has grown richer in all the ways that really matter. His faith in God is strong and sure. His life is full of meaningful relationships with people he’s known since high school, business colleagues and friends, a close-knit family, and a team of medical professionals who have walked with them every step of the way. Life’s unpredictabiites have caused him to let go of the things he can’t control, and prioritize the things he can, chief among them, his attitude. He is joyful, peaceful and grateful. How? You’ll have to hear him tell it on this week’s episode of Now I See.
