Buy a Toy/Get a Bible!

You can go give a Bible away at any event if you allow God to help you, even at a toy sale.

Liam Winter was cleaning his room and decided that he would sell some toys to buy a game that he had not yet saved up enough money to purchase. He also wanted to give away Bibles to help LifeLight spread the good news. His solution... With every purchase of a toy, the customer would receive an adult or children's Bible for free!!! And he gave away 5 kids and 2 adult Bibles... which he donated some of his profits to. One of his friends named Sarah donated money to cover the rest!

What a great day and a great example of how to get God involved in all we do. Way to go Liam!!

The Truth

I am Worthless.......
I have failed......
There is no hope for me.......
Nobody loves me......
I'm in this alone......
God does not love me anymore....

These are just a few examples of the Lies that we as people often allow to linger in our minds. We let circumstances, actions and thoughts that we are not proud of trick us into believing these lies. It doesn't take long before we give way for these lies to determine how we live and how we treat others.

But the reality is that, the Word of God contains the absolute truth about us. The words from God recorded in this Book are the absolute truth. God shows us what he thinks of us and how he sees us, in the Bible. All the negative thoughts mentioned above are not anywhere in the Bible and are therefore nothing more but lies!

It says in God's word: 


For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future,nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8 : 38 - 39


God loves you unconditionally! He loves you no matter what your past has been. He loves you not matter what situation you are going through. Nothing, not your guilt, not your shame, not your loss, not your hurt, not your pain, not your doubt, can ever separate you from the love of God.

So what are you allowing to determine how you live? The lies of this world? Or the truth from the Word of God? How about others around you? Can you make a difference in their lives by providing them with a Bible so that they may also read and learn about the truth of who they are through God's love?

If you want a Bible for yourself or to give away, contact us: 204-339-3770 or emails us at bibles@thelifelight.com ro leaves us a comment on facebook

We would love to get a copy of this book of love so you can read for yourself about the Love of God!

Give scripture to the taxi driver


This morning on the way to the airport I found out our driver was born in Punjab India and came to Canada in 1981. I asked him if he was a Christian and he said he was Hindi. I asked him if he had ever read the Bible. He didn't know what that was. I asked him if he wanted a copy and he said "it wouldn't hurt to read it". I told him I had one in my bag and when we got to the airport I gave him my last copy of "Find God". He was happy to receive it and said he often had hours of time waiting for the next fare.
Earlier on this trip I had given away a 1/2 dozen testaments to other happy recipients.

Bible give Away

Stan came to pick up the old fridge yesterday. It was too heavy for the two of us to handle. He loaded the fridge doors and an old washing machine. When he was ready to go I gave him a The LifeLight New Testament. When he came back today to pick up the fridge, he brought his wife with him. They were so enthusiastic about that Bible I had given them! The missus told me she and her son were reading it and following the suggested daily reading plan. She told me she has 6 children. I asked her if she wanted another copy for her son. She said yes. I had 4 more copies in the house, so I gave her all of them. She was EVER so grateful!

When The Two Amigos fridge delivery people were done delivery of our new fridge, I offered them each a gift of Find God New Testament. They accepted them gladly.

The lesson of the day? Have more scriptures available. God will provide the distribution opportunities!

SAVED!!!

Last Wednesday I spoke at a church banquet here in Winnipeg and challenged a group of about 80 people to give away a Bible before the end of the week. We had a great response with many people committing to give a Bible away for the first time. This morning, one of the ladies from that church stopped by to share a story with Marge and I. She told me that my message and challenge had really encouraged her to be bold in her faith and to share her faith with a family that she new needed the Lord.......what happened next is an amazing example of what God can do when we act on the prompting of the Holy Spirit. The family she connected with was an immigrant family from the Philippines. She has gotten to know them over the past couple of years but hadn't really talked in depth about her faith. She went to their place with a Bible for each family member and started talking about Christ and what He has done for her life and what He can do for their lives as well. By the end of the evening, the entire family was led to the Lord and they all had their own Bibles to grow in their faith. They will also be coming to church as well. AMAZING!!!!!!! I don't always get to hear the outcomes of my presentations, so it was so cool to hear this story first thing this morning. Made my week!!

Trip North

Thanks for the update!
Glad you had a safe trip.
May God bless the reading of His Word! Are you going to Ontario or Saskatchewan next?

On 26-Nov-12 2:14 PM, Wayne wrote: The latest trip north started Nov. 11 at 11:00 am. I made this trip with Bill Penner who has worked in the north for many, many years. We had planned to leave earlier that day but we chose to heed the storm warnings . At 9:00 am they advised against traveling on #6. By 10:00 am that restriction had been lifted and so I phoned Bill in Steinbach and he was in Wpg by 11:00 am and we began our journey north.
We arrived in Thompson at 10:00 p.m.. The roads were snow covered except the last 100 km south of Thompson. Our travels took us as far as Lynn Lake, Gillam and Norway House.
We traveled 4100 km and distributed 2500 NTs. Many were praying and God opened doors and gave us favour.
Thanks to those who prayed and we need to continue to pray that God will motivate and direct that the Word of God will get into the right hands and be read and bear fruit.

LifeLight Fall Supper


Watch the video now.  Donate here

Thanks to all of you who came out on Sunday night for our LifeLight banquet. We've had so much good feedback of how people really enjoyed the entire night. It was truly a successful evening.

I have a meeting on Wednesday with somebody willing to give their testimony for the native Bible. He is an amazing singer/songwriter that has won various awards including an aboriginal music award. The process for the native Bible is slow but steady. Lots of work is going into this but we know God has a plan for this Bible and so we are happy to work at His pace as He provides more testimonies and insight.

Stay tuned for more highlights soon.

LifeLight Evening

Justin Hanson shared inner city ministry experiences.

Shaun McClarin shared inner city women's ministry

Tim Elias prison chaplain report:
Scripture impact is very significant in prison.
George is a striker for Hell's angels.
Loving your enemies they say is crazy. I  entrust them with a Bible. They read it. That Bible is an amazing book. If you abide in Jesus word you will have life.
Thank you for your support. The Bible was a clear message from God to 3 prisoners when they started to read it together.
1st nations ministry is a big part of LifeLight for many years. LifeLight is in the process of preparing a 1st nation's Bible. Getting lots of good feedback. Fresh IE got involved and is really excited about this new Bible.

Barb will share. 1996 she applied to work up north. Her 1st trip was to Split Lake where a woman wanted her to bring God. Soon she started giving LifeLight scriptures and lives were changed.
Gave away 100s of Bibles over the years. The Bible is the most influential book in history. It changes people.

Perimeter Air flies Bibles north at no cost. A big thanks to them.

Christian camps reach kids for Jesus. We donated 7,000 Bibles to campers this year. 7,000 homes have been impacted.

Shane Reimer has been working at Fisher Bay Bible Camp. An 8 year old got a Bible last year. He was concerned about his family. He came back to camp this year. He had been reading his The LifeLight Bible every day.
My camp is a low budget camp and we are very thankful for free LifeLight scriptures.

One camp director asked for 1,000 Bibles and he burst into tears of thankfulness when he got them.

Each ministry here is going home with a box of Scriptures.
