Acts 22:1-21

A time-honoured, effective method of evangelism is your personal testimony. Just telling about your spiritual pilgrimage. The skeptic may deny your doctrine or attack your church, but he cannot honestly ignore the fact that your life has been cleaned up and revolutionized.

Now I'm not talking about some stale, dragged-out verbal marathon. That kind of testimony never attracted anyone! I'm speaking of an effective, powerful missile launched from your lips to the ears of the unsaved. Consider these five suggestions:

Canada announced the details of a $64.8 million military aid package to Ukraine Friday as National Defence Minister Bill Blair attended a NATO defence ministers meeting in Brussels.

Ukraine's ongoing war with Russia was a key topic at the meeting, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the ministers during the meeting.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, chairing his first NATO defence ministers' meeting since taking the role earlier in October, said the alliance's members are on track to deliver almost $60 billion in security assistance to Ukraine.

Love & The Outcome's Jodi King and Chris Rademaker have asked their fans for help as they work on their next project. 

The former Winnipeggers, and husband-wife duo, have started a Kickstarter campaign to help them raise funds to create a Hymns record.

Jodi says the pair both grew up with their grandparents singing hymns in church and the Blessing before every meal, something they feel is relatable for many.

After years of pursuing solo music careers, Drew & Ellie Holcomb are preparing to release a new full-length studio album.

The couple, who have pursued their careers individually, carved out time earlier this year to write and the result is a new record. 

Their title track 'Memory Bank, released on Thursday, is a song they hope listeners will want to play every time they get in the car.

Roughly 6,500 university students gathered for a praise and worship event held at the University of Mississippi last week that ended with students getting baptized in the parking lot.

The event was put on by Unite US on October 10 at one of the biggest party schools in the U.S.A. 

It was so well-received that afterward in the parking lot, there were baptisms held in the back of a pickup truck with a tarp and water added.

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
