God Saved My Life 5 Years Ago—What Now? A Personal Message From Hank

Author: The Christian Research Institute December 19, 2024 Duration: 15:43
I am five years removed from a stem-cell transplant that saved my life. And seven years removed from an initial cancer diagnosis of stage four mantle cell lymphoma. I greet you with a heart of gratitude but also a spirit of resolve. Resolve to remember that life is fleeting. Resolve captured by the words, “Only one life, ’twill soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last.”During the past twelve months, users have accessed our website equip.org from more than 230 countries—benefiting from our vast reservoir of unrestricted resources, such as the Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank Unplugged podcast, Bible Answer Man YouTube Channel, Daily e-Truths, and Christian Research Journal online, available to anyone with Internet access anywhere in the world.I am deeply grateful to all who answer by your continued support of the many outreaches of the Christian Research Institute. I am sincerely grateful for all you do to strengthen our 24/7 outreaches. Outreaches making a strategic difference at home and around the globe.As I approach three quarters of a century in age, I am acutely aware of the reality of being in the fourth quarter of my life. A life motivated by the apostle Paul’s admonition to “run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:1–2).In closing,  I’ve provided a link to our Website here. Thank you for the vital difference your year-end gift will make in so many lives. https://www.equip.org/product/year-end-gift-2024-hup/
