"The Arena" A place to discuss 70 A.D. and it's relevance to Bible prophecy...

Preterist Radio @ AD70.NET has now been broadcasting for close to 8 months. And let me just say...What a ride it has been. 8)

When I began this project I had no idea how long it would last, or how much work it would take. Nor did I completely realize the effectiveness that it would have in conveying this message of fulfillment. While one of the goals has been met by providing a place of meeting for those outside of conventional forms of fellowship, I never imagined that for many it would become a church home. Preterist Radio @ AD70.NET has quite literally become many listeners virtual church home.

One of the biggest surprises over the last 8 months has been the popularity of the podcast page. There are now more than 330 podcasts available for download at http://thepodcast.org and we are quickly approaching 40,000 podcasts downloaded. That’s more than 40,000 hours of teaching from a fulfilled perspective reaching out to the uttermost parts of the Earth.

The most recent addition to the teaching line up on Preterist Radio is John Noe, author of “Beyond The End Times,” and “Shattering the ‘Left Behind’ Delusion.” His program called Kingdom Christianity, airs live at 12 Noon, Pacific Standard Time on Thursdays. Coming up this fall Ed Stevens and Tim Martin will also be joining the line-up. We also have in the works at least one Spanish broadcast in the near future.

Over the next few months we will begin hosting a live feed from a number of preterist conferences. In July we will be hosting a number of the lectures from the Preterist Pilgram Weekend. Coming up in August we will be airing the first completely virtual conference hosted by Tim Martin and Jeff Vaughn of “Beyond Creation Science,. And in September we will be hosting the “New Covenant Eyes,” conference. With more to come. This way we can all be a part of these conferences even if we can’t make it in person.

So far we’ve all done a very good job at promoting Preterist Radio within the fulfilled community...But now is the time to begin reaching out and advertising to the non-preterist and general public. I’m currently working on a number of advertising and promotional projects that will bring more people to the station. Projects that will not only consume a considerable amount of time, but also resources. The foundation has been laid. Now we need to build the house.

I want to personally thank each and every one of you that has so generously elected to support Preterist Radio financially. We couldn’t have made it this far without you. Support has reached a point where the cost of running things has been covered along with enough funds to cover other projects like AD70.TV. A video sharing site much like YouTube, solely dedicated to preterism, without the file size and time limitations of YouTube. Go check it out. If you have any good preterist videos, please feel free to register and upload them for the world to see. And if you have a website please consider promoting it there.

Which brings me to a topic I’ve been avoiding as long as possible...Finances. 8)

Over the last year, God has richly blessed my family with the financial freedom to actually make Preterist Radio a possibility. However...That will be changing over the coming months and I will have to make some tough decisions regarding the future of Preterist Radio to ensure that my family’s needs continue being met.

I have the opportunity to go back to work as a longshoreman down here in the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. However...I would much rather continue putting my full-time effort and more in to building a full fledged Preterist Broadcast Network that will someday rival the likes of the Trinity Broadcast Network.

So I guess in some sense, I’m at a crossroads and I’d like some feedback from everyone.

We’ve seen some very significant growth in the preterist movement over the last 12 months and I believe that the Preterist Broadcast Network will play a very big roll in the continued growth of the end times reformation that we are all currently witnessing.

I’ve often wondered how many preterist’s there are in the world today. Even if there were only 500 of us, $5 a month from each would ensure the future and continued growth of the Preterist Broadcast Network. That breaks down to just 17 cents a day. $10 a month(34 cents a day) from 500 people would make it possible for many more things including promotional products like shirts, hats, bumper stickers, coffee mugs, promotional cards and eventually advertising campaigns.

Imagine seeing, “The end WAS near...Preterist Radio @ AD70.NET!!!” plastered across the side of every bus in every major U.S. city starting in 2013.

We all know what mass media and advertising has done for futurism...Now lets see what we as preterist’s can do to ensure the continued growth of this modern day reformation.

And so I ask every one out there that has not yet become a financial partner of the Preterist Broadcast Network to prayerfully consider what you can do. I firmly believe that where God guides He provides. He’s done so this far and I’m confident that He will continue to do so.

Support Preterist Radio “Here”
