Focal Point with Pastor Mike Fabarez

Turn on the television or the radio any time day or night and you can find the political pundits bantering back and forth. With a race to occupy the Oval Office, political posturing is in full swing. As a minister of the Gospel, I am not called to be politically correct. I’m commissioned to be biblically accurate. The Scripture calls pastors to “preach the word!” And so when I stand before God’s people to preach, and when we prepare to bring you our radio broadcast, I give no thought to tailoring my words to please people in places of political power and influence. Respect authority? Yes. Compromise the message of God’s Word? No. My goal is to open God’s Word and clearly articulate what it says and urgently persuade God’s people to put it into practice. I trust that you have noticed that my focus is on boldly presenting God’s truth without apology. To do otherwise would be a compromise of my pastoral calling.

We are so thankful for those in our loyal listening family who share our convictions and help provide Focal Point to the broadest possible audience. We count on men and women just like you to help defray the cost of purchasing airtime on radio stations across the country and on OnePlace and Lightsource. Your support helps to keep this preaching on the air. And to express my appreciation, I want to provide this month’s donors with an insightful and thought-provoking book by my former pastor, Dr. Erwin Lutzer. It’s called, Is God on America’s Side? This is certainly a timely question for us to be asking. I am sure you’ll find Dr. Lutzer’s biblical answer to that question very helpful during this election year.

In addition to your financial support, would you consider taking time to pray for Focal Point? We have completed one of the most exciting and expansive years of outreach in the history of this ministry. And God appears to be opening even more doors of opportunity for further expansion on more strategic radio stations in 2012. Please pray with us that God will provide the wisdom, resources and volunteer help that are required to take advantage of these unprecedented prospects. We know God can do it. We trust he will prompt many to partner with us to see more lives changed through this radio outreach.

Remember to let others know about the broadcast. Inform them of the many resources that Focal Point provides online for free. I am praying that God will use this ministry to transform more and more lives for his glory through the ministry of his Word.
