"Is there anything KBLN Better Life Television can do that 3ABN can’t?” This question came to me on Sept. 2, 2005, while I was praying about the future of KBLN and considering what to do next. We had accomplished our goal to broadcast the gospel into seven southern Oregon and two northern California counties. "Where do we go from here?” I prayed.
Recently, with Oregon Conference support, KBLN developed and aired a 32-episode series by Seminars Unlimited with Willard Regester, evangelist. Churches delivered the lessons to more than 400 people. The project was a significant success. “We want to do this again,” stated Tom Lemon, Oregon Conference ministerial and evangelism director.
KBLN could develop specific conference-oriented programming to broadcast throughout the conference. Advancing “Project Oregon” would require visits with Danny Shelton of 3ABN and Tom Lemon. Meetings occurred in mid October 2005, with very favorable results.
“Project Oregon” will uplink to satellite and establish downlinks throughout the Oregon Conference to broadcast 3ABN and KBLN conference-oriented programming.
Many doors need to be opened, and much help is required before this can happen, but we know that God is in control. “The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it. Brothers and sisters, pray for us” (1 Thes. 5:24, 25).
My wife, Marta, and I joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1998 after watching KBLN. We know firsthand the effectiveness of the excellent 3ABN and KBLN programming and are now station managers of KBLN Better Life Television in Grants Pass.
