Abiding in Jesus
Bill Taylor is the weather chief for KENS 5 in San Antonio, Texas. He grew up in northern New Jersey and first moved south when he was 19. For most of his life, he thought “down south” was Virginia. Then, he found out about southwest Louisiana and the Cajun life. Between crawfish boils and Mardi Gras, he squeezed in a degree in journalism from McNeese State University in Lake Charles.
Bill began his television career there, too, at NBC affiliate KPLC. Upon landing the weekend weather chair, he enrolled in the meteorology program at Mississippi State University. Then, it was on to Dixie and the state of Alabama. Following a four-year study of the skies over Montgomery, where he worked for WSFA-TV, he applied for a weekend weather position at KENS 5.
Bill has served the viewers of South Texas since 1996. The most important thing he does is keep people ahead of severe, life-threatening weather situations. But THE MOST important thing he does is serve his three girls as a dad,” Bill says. “I enjoy EVERY SECOND I’m blessed to spend with Carissa, Kendall and Peyton. And, when we can, my beautiful wife Jamie and I really enjoy a round of golf and a good wine.”
Bill stands 6-foot-3, but he’s never taller than when a big storm is approaching and it’s all hands on deck in the KENS 5 studio. That’s when the otherwise wild-and-wacky, up-for-anything TV personality displays the kind of gravitas needed for weather that’s become a matter of life and death.
Among the many hats that Bill wears, he is also one of the pastors at Gateway Fellowship Church. He is heavily involved in”Bill’s Elves”, the Alzheimers Association and the Cancer Society. Bill seems to pop up in many city functions, interviewing people and chlidren somewhere. Bill is a perfect example a community role model and is a perfect example for all of us as an asset to society and one who follows the teachings of Jesus.

Healing and Faith
Marcus Burgos Jr. had just finished his fourth year at Lee University in Cleveland, Tennessee. He had been studying Music Business with a focus on Saxophone with a dream of someday performing. Then on July 18, 2021, with scant warning, Marcus Jr went from casually working out in his college home to lying in a hospital bed, unable to walk or talk. His life was hanging in the balance. There were no major clues that a trial so serious could change that dream so quickly.
Physicians discovered Marcus Jr. was born with an arteriovenous malformation, a clump of veins formed incorrectly in his brain that burst. The doctors performed open brain surgery to correct this life-threatening condition. The results of AVM mimic a stroke. In Marcus Jr.’s case, the muscles on the left side of his body, his occipital lobe, and a small portion of his brain stem were affected. This meant his ability to walk, talk, see, and even breathe became extremely difficult.
Before his injury, Marcus Jr. recalls getting “cold feet” in his relationship with God. He was getting frustrated with the rules of Christianity and decided to become “less strict when it comes to religion.” Shortly after his shocking experience, he talked to God and decided to devote every aspect of his life to him. All of the distractions he had before this time were taken away.
Marcus Sr. asked the Lord whether his son would live, He put a verse on his heart almost immediately. 1 Samuel 20:8b says “And the Lord told him, ‘Yes, go after them. You will surely recover everything that was taken from you!’” He believed this was God’s way of saying “Yes, Marcus will surely recover ALL!”…
Praise. Praise God with the Burgos family that their son did not die and is recovering from the ordeal.
Pray. Ask the Holy Spirit to pour out a special anointing over Marcus Jr. and his gift of music and worship. If you know someone going through a trial, pray that God will show them through.

Salvation to Abundant Life
Lesa Jagmin is a director for re|engage in San Antonio, TX . Re|engage is discipleship-based enrichment for every marriage – the healthy, the struggling, and the broken. This ministry draws married couples to the church, giving them a safe place to move toward oneness through small groups, teaching, and stories of hope.
Re|engage is a small-groups based ministry. Unlike traditional counseling or mentoring where couples meet with an individual or one other couple, we believe life (and marriage) transformation best occurs in the context of relationships with others. This is a big difference from many other couples and marriage ministries.

Serving Others
Joining us today is CEO Megan Legacy and Program Director Janiece Cantu from San Antonio Hope Center. SA Hope Center began over 30 years ago as a benevolence ministry of Oak Hills Church.
In 2014, the SA Hope Center’s program model took a shift from a food pantry program to a multi-faceted social service agency that addresses the root causes of poverty to help the community become holistically sustainable.
Their programs are relationally-focused and provide various programs including financial literacy, job training, senior services, nutrition assistance, health and wellness screenings and classes, parenting classes, spiritual programs, and many more.
SA Hope’s passion is to bring that purpose to life through compassion, empathy, and a Christ-like culture. We exist for one reason: to be the voice for the voiceless and to empower them to succeed. There are some values that are inherent to who we are. Their Christ-like culture fosters these values, which they live by on a daily basis. Genuinely caring about those they help, combined with their passion to empower, makes them who they are. SA Hope is love.
Values of SA Hope Center
EMPOWERING – RELATIONSHIPS – COMPASSIONATE-SERVICE – DIVERSITY
SA Hope provides those in need the tools necessary to get back on their feet, not only by helping them in the moment, but by providing them with a plan that will positively impact the rest of their lives. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. Trust is important. Assuring those who come to SA Hope that there is hope for their future empowers them to believe again, and having confidence in their services is key. Empathy is a part of who they are. SA Hope understands the struggles and are ready to help. They welcome all those in need and they go above and beyond to help them succeed in life. SA Hope judges no one. Anyone seeking help has found it with them. No matter the circumstances, they do their best to guide everyone to a brighter future.

John 10:10
Yalew Kebede is an elder at the Ethiopian International Evangelical Church in San Antonio Texas. Yalew and his wife Sophia retired in the year 2004. In 2005 they went to the Philippines on a mission trip. They rented a house and started to disciple college students and teach the word of God in the town of Dapitan. While they were there, they were able to see an entire community come to faith in Jesus Christ and because of this there was a church established in the town of Napo. As they realized the Lord was using them, they returned to the Philippines for the next 4 years to work as missionaries. They were able to finance the mission in the Philippines by working for a couple of months as a consultant in the environmental field. Since that was Yalew’s background before he retired.
Yalew and Sophia then began to work in Ethiopia to reach the people there with the gospel of Jesus. The official religion in Ethiopia is Eastern orthodox, which has some similarity with the Catholic Church belief system. By following the leading of the Lord they found God had opened the door for them to bring the message of the gospel to Ethiopia. The 2 scriptures they have used to make a difference in their message is in 2nd Corinthians 5:22 and Hebrews 2:11.
The 2nd religious group that the Lord used to bring the gospel to was Islam. They are seeing many Muslims turning to Jesus to get saved in Ethiopia. The numbers are in the thousands. The role of Yalew and Sophia is to disciple new believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord has helped them build 3 churches with 2 more in the process of being built. One church that is being built is for a Muslim sheik they came to faith in Jesus and has many followers.
Yalew and Sophia returned in January 2023 from a two-month trip to Ethiopia. They are now in the process of returning to Ethiopia for one entire year. Their faithfulness to God’s calling has changed many lives and it is apparent that Jesus is the Lord of their lives.

Faith
Michail and Tatiana (Tanya) Duca were born when Moldova was part of USSR so, we grew up in a very antichristian environment. Because of communist propaganda they studied at school that there is no God and religion is just a way to control masses. It affected their worldview so, they were raised as atheists. Moldova became an independent country in 1991 after the USSR has fallen. From that moment many missionaries came to ex USSR countries to share the Gospel.
Both Michail and Tayna believed in Jesus when they were students. They met Christian students from Campus Crusade for Christ (now Cru) that helped them to know more about God. After graduation they decided to join Cru. The stories look similar but, Michail and Tayna grew up in different parts of Moldova and met for the first time in 1999. At that year Tanya became a Cru staff and moved from a small town to the capital. Michail joined Cru in 2002. At the same year Michail and Tayna got married. To date, they served God in different sites, different countries and ministries.
In 2014 Michail and Tayna moved back from Russia where they served for 5 years in a Muslim area. After 15 years in student ministry, they are now serving in Digital Strategies and Leadership Development. Michail and Tayna believe that God has many other adventures for them.

Radu and Liuda Cucos have been full-time missionaries with Campus Crusade for Christ (CRU) for over 20 years to the Republic of Moldova. Moldova is the little country between Ukraine and Romania. Before the war in Ukraine, Moldova has been the poorest country in all of Europe. The average income in the city is around $350 per month. Therefore, many people work outside of the country to provide for their families. This leaves spouses and children without the companionship and home structure needed to create and sustain a solid home environment. This also gives rise to a divorce rate of over 55%. Right now, the evangelical Christians only make up 2% of the population with an uphill battle to share the love of Jesus and what it means to live in holiness as they teach, new and old believers alike, to follow the teachings of Jesus.
However, it is evident that God is alive and working in the ministries of dedicated missionaries like Radu and Liuda, who are committed to Jesus as they strive to become more like Him in a country where people have little hope and need a savior. These are caring people, which has been proven by the humanitarian care given to over 300,000 Ukrainian refugees fleeing for their lives.
Our Bible discussion will be based on Ehpesians 4:17-32. Solving conflicts.

Independent recording artist, Glenn Green, began his deep-rooted love for music as a child learning hymns and songs played from his grandfather’s autoharp. He never imagined this humble beginning would blossom into a more than 35 year career in the church. Over the years, Glenn has become a well respected musician in South Texas, serving as worship leader to many congregations and establishing himself through frequent appearances at coffee houses, restaurants, retreats, schools, festivals, and community events. His five independent projects are finding a niche with their diverse sounds ranging from soulful, thought-provoking ballads to high-energy pop-rock praise to his most recent Christmas album, “Ornaments”, released in the fall of 2021.
Mission work has always been at the heart of Glenn’s ministry leading him to establish connections in Uganda over the past 12 years to train musicians for the church. This has led to bringing more than 30 guitars into the country to share a multiplication teaching model and leading songwriting workshops. Because of his desire to connect with musicians around the world, Glenn has also built relationships in Israel resulting in leading his own tour for songwriters in 2019. In an effort to provide more opportunities for Texas songwriters Glenn organizes regular songwriting retreats.
These past 3 years have been particularly fruitful with several song cuts – most notable, “Right Now” by The Taylors and “Count the Stars” by Lifeway Music choral division. His newest venture is the release of his first children’s book entitled, “Snow Day” to be released in the fall of 2022. In addition to his full-time songwriting schedule, Glenn serves on staff with Write About Jesus, as a board member of Ner LeRaglai, and as an itinerant Worship Pastor throughout the San Antonio/Austin corridor. He resides in Spring Branch, Texas with his wife, Sharon, and son, Tyler.

Chad Clark is the Co-Founder of C.D. Clark Diamonds and Design Studio, along with his wife Stephanie. C.D. Clark Diamonds and Design Studio is dedicated to creating one-of-a-kind jewelry through a merger of cutting-edge technology and time-honored jewelry making traditions. As a family owned business, the Clark’s bring over 40 collective years of experience in the world of fine jewelry to the table. Chad and Stephanie are highly respected gold buyers and dealers in precious stones and estate jewelry, with extensive experience in bespoke custom and remount pieces.
Somewhere along his success in business, Chad found himself personally lost and totally broken. With the power of sin that was in control of his life, Chad could not see any way out. With a sincere cry to God for redemption and freedom, The Holy Spirit took a hold of Chad, dramatically freed him from bondage, created a new life in Jesus and began to mold him into the man God so desired. Chad is now an ordained pastor. Today, he serves Jesus everywhere he goes…including in his business, during business hours. There are now people who come to his store seeking prayer for the breaking of Satan’s chains on their lives. On Chad’s business card is written; Luke 10:19-20, which reads: “I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Chad truly believes in the power of prayer, the power of Jesus’ redemption and the power of change in The Holy Spirit.
I read this testimony from Chad and felt the need to share: “It’s always a great privilege to bring God’s word that He lays on my heart. It’s only by his grace and mercies over my life that I’m able to do this. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. I say to myself, The LORD is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!” Lamentations 3:23-24

Brenda Kay Deyo is a local acrylic painter here in San Antonio Texas. She is the owner of Brenda’s Creations Art Studio and Gallery and CEO & co-founder along with her husband Roger Deyo, of Artist Night Out Experience, now located at Rolling Oaks Mall.
Brenda struggled much of her life with loss and misfortune. But, because of her grandmother’s encouragement and investment into her life, her love of art and the seed that was planted in Brenda’s heart by the Holy Spirit, at a young age, Brenda has emerged with amazing insight and strength to reach a world for Jesus that few would ever visualize, much less even try.
As a young girl Brenda was inspired to be an artist like her grandmother. Self-taught, encouraged and guided by the memories of her grandmother, Brenda has developed her skills over time. Today, Brenda is a minister of word of God. She has taught for 20 years as a youth pastor, teacher, and preacher. She sells her paintings and teaches art to beginner artists and uses the word of God as a foundation for her instruction. She along with her husband own the only Christian Night Club in San Antonio known as Artist Night Out.
Brenda Kay’s spiritual gift is in the prophetic, and her art is abstract in nature. Her style is a mix of expressionism with impressionism. She uses symbols as keys to interpret scripture in a visual way. Biblical images appear as she paints during worship telling a story and expressing the atmosphere through color and imagination. Brenda believes that art is a gift from God and can be used as a tool to bring light into a dark world. She began an outreach called Artist Night Out Experience as a way of reaching out to the public using creative gifts to deliver the message of Christ. Brenda believes that art is more than just something pretty, she believes that God can use artists to change the world by using their gifts to bring people together in a new creative way. Brenda Kay has also ministered with her live painting services. Having performed live painting for many church organizations and events like Last Chance Ministries at the Alamo Dome for an event called Crusade 300 and the Unsealed Scroll Prophesy Conference with Jonathan Cahn at the Grand Hyatt.
Brenda also believes in giving to non-profit organizations and has done so through donating her gift of live painting and raising money by selling what she paints. One of her most recent events she has donated to was Adult and Teen Challenge’s their and yearly banquet at the Trinity University here in San Antonio. Brenda has also been interviewed on tv and radio stations several times, has ministered at many out of town and local church services, concerts, weddings, and parties and is now host and MC at Artist Night Out Experience.
Brenda knew she was called but didn’t understand why, after everything she had been through. So, she just followed the leading of the Holy Spirit as he taught her about value. God began showing her, her own value and now the Lord uses her gift to help others. Today she ministers to artists teaching them about their value and how much God loves them. A true success story!
Join us for an amazing discussion and teaching from 1Peter 2:9 – A royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people.

Chris Soto has a deep love for God’s people. Especially those the world has given up on. Chris was one of those people. But God, never gave up on him. First and foremost, Chris Considers himself an Ambassador of Jesus Christ.
Chris has spent time in jail. And in 2009 in the Bexar County jail in San Antonio, Texas his life changed forever. It’s where he came to know Jesus as his Lord.

Jerry Dyke is the National Director of Church Mobilization with East-West Ministries International. The vision of East-West is to glorify God by multiplying followers of Jesus in the spiritually darkest areas of the world. They exists to mobilize the Body of Christ to evangelize the lost and equip local believers to multiply disciples and healthy churches among unreached peoples and/or in restricted access communities.
Using simple, Biblical, and reproducible tools, the missionaries and national partners of East-West, invite the lost into a relationship with Jesus. They empower local believers with simple tools to share the gospel, disciple new believers, and plant churches so that the unreached are reached by the gospel.
East-West deploys teams of missionaries and works with national partners to start church planting movements in the spiritually darkest areas of the world. Their work spans nearly 60 countries across 10 major world regions.
In today’s discussion, we are going to use Matthew 9:35-38 as a base where Jesus addresses how the laborers are few and the harvest is plentiful…

John-David Martinez is an accomplished musician and songwriter. He has served in the capacity of Worship Leader and Worship Pastor for the last 15 years. Presently John David is the Music director / Missions leader at Freedom Fellowship Church, in New Braunfels, Texas.
JD has recorded 50 Songs and 4 Albums. Not only is he an excellent singer, his music is the kind that touches the inner depths of your soul.
John David is the founder of Shoe Box Ministries and JD Martinez Ministry. He considers himself a part-time missionary and travels often to the country of Peru, where he spends much of his time and ministry with the Casa Del Aguila Orphanage.
From what I have gathered, the major cornerstone in John David’s journey as a missionary in helping the orphanage, stems from the finding and recording of several songs he wrote that were lost for several years in a shoe box. This is an amazing and God directed story…
Join us as we talk about honoring Jesus in everything we do…at all times.

He has seen over 200,000 decisions for Christ, one of which was his own father, been in over 3000 churches, written two books, and built a ministry around this one choice to accept Christ.
