主又對他們說,你們往普天下去,傳福音給萬民聽,信而受洗的,必然得救,不信的必被定罪。(馬可福音十六:6)
	林:親愛的朋友平安,今天播恩中心請到了從台灣來的陳文逸牧師來分享,陳牧師,你好。
	陳:大家好。
	林:陳牧師請問你是怎麼信耶穌的呢?
	陳:我在台灣屏東的鄉下成長,身體不好,我媽媽就把我帶到廟裡,給偶像做乾兒子。在整個成長的過程裡面,就是在廟裡拜拜、改運啊。後來到台北唸大學的時候,我姐姐邀我到教會。我想自己的姐姐不會邀我到不好的地方,去試試看吧,也沒有說是去追求真理。大概去了兩、三個月,我就發現不太一樣,我的裡面有很多的喜樂,很平安啊!過去我是靠自己的努力,想讓自己的心平靜,但是用了很多方法,覺得成果有限。後來我到了教會,覺得聖靈的工作在我裡面,我就很平安,很多的喜樂。後來我才知道那是重生的生命,就這樣子成為基督徒,很認真的讀聖經,大概一年後受洗。
	林:啊,感謝主。那麼你覺得信主以後有什麼轉變?
	陳:過去我總是想追求一些外在看得見的東西,成為自己的或者別人的肯定。但是到教會以後,我讀聖經好像有一種感覺,就是即使我沒有什麼,但是我還是可以很平安,很喜樂。慢慢地在信仰的認識裡面,我發現神是完全接納我的,所以價值觀有很大的不一樣。
	林:那麼多久以後才感受到神要你全職事奉祂?
	陳:因為我自己從民間信仰的背景信主的,所以信主的過程,重生的生命很清楚。信主後很努力的在追求,很認真讀聖經,很認真聚會,裡面也常常有感動,感覺我的一生可以出來傳道。
	林:那麼你是在什麼樣的情況之下接受呼召的?
	陳:有幾年的時間,我一直覺得能夠辭掉工作,全時間出來服事上帝,是我生命裡面最有價值的事情。比我賺更多的錢,比我追求更高的學歷,爭得更高的地位更有價值,我覺得這是神漸漸的呼召。
	我剛開始想全時間服事的時候,總是想先進神學院,還有三年的時間。學校畢業以後,我是做軟體工程的開發,特別是金融軟體│銀行,大概做了三年半,我就想是不是應該進神學院了?那個時候我跟家人談這個事情,他們都很反對。
	我的父母親還沒有進教會,當然他們對我也有一些期待。特別我媽媽很愛我,她會覺得本來你是我的孩子,怎麼跑去變成上帝的孩子。另外她也怕我要當牧師,那我吃得飽、吃不飽?....我想這兩種複雜的情緒在她心裡面。
	林:所以家裡給你一些攔阻,那時你結婚了沒有?
	陳:還沒有。他們動員一些親戚朋友要來說服我,打消這個念頭。後來我去禱告山一個禮拜,在那裡安靜尋求,禁食。剛好那時我現在的太太已經在嘉義的海邊漁村開拓福音工作,差不多進入第三年。她有一點挫折就請假到禱告山去,安靜禱告。我們是在那裡遇到,很奇妙,神給我特別的禮物,在山上認識。我有機會去她那邊看看,看了以後,我覺得有感動,在鄉下民間信仰影響這麼深的地方,居然有一個單身姊妹,在資源、人力很少的情況下做福音的工作。後來跟她交往,就考慮結婚,既然我辭掉工作,想全職事奉,不如我先去她那裡。她已經在鄉下服事,鄉下有那麼需要,我覺得這是神奇妙的帶領,就投入了鄉下的事工。
	林:你服事這個「鄉村基層福音佈道團」有多長的時間?
	陳:1991年3月我結婚就辭掉工作,到鄉下嘉義漁村。一年半以後,大概1992年9月我到台北唸神學院,1995年7月畢業再回來,一直到現在23年了。
	林:對於在台灣民間信仰那麼沉重的環境裡面,你跟太太如何打破,然後引領他們棄絕偶像的迷信,到真神的面前?
	陳:特別是鄉下的百姓,他們生活在一個很緊密的社群結構裡面,大家都認識,大家都有關係,三叔公、五嬸婆。在這種情況下,要離開原來的信仰不容易。在這當中我們就要跟他們建立關係,和他們做朋友,取得他們的信任,同時我們也做許多比較實際的,比如課後輔導,幫他們孩子們的功課,他們身體有需要的時候,帶他們去醫院,常常為他們禱告,陪伴他們等等。
	在好多年前,有一位媽媽原是一貫道的,當年有兩個孩子在小學二、三年級的時候,聽到教會有兒童的讀經班,她就很高興叫他們來。一貫道有讀經她也帶去,兩邊都帶。但是我們要跟她談福音,她就說你們不要跟我講這個,我19歲就去一貫道,我信的很好。後來她又懷孕了,她懷第二胎,家裡經濟狀況不是很好。懷第三胎時,她壓力很大,所有的親戚朋友都叫她把孩子拿掉。那時我們剛剛懷了第四胎,又是雙胞胎,我就告訴她,孩子是上帝給我們屬靈的產業。後來她生產的時候難產,我們教會就在經濟上幫助她,在她做月子時幫助她,她就感受教會的人比她的親戚朋友更愛她。所以她慢慢地越來越多的進入教會。她本來常說你們教會怎麼樣,我們一貫道怎麼樣。後來就慢慢地改成說,我們教會怎麼樣,他們一貫道怎麼樣。她的孩子現在已經上大學了,她也很穩定在教會裡幫忙、服事、參加小組活動,她跟三個孩子都受洗了。
	林:啊,感謝主,她全家得救啊,那她先生呢?
	陳:她先生還沒有。
	林:只剩下她先生,是早晚的事。請問陳牧師,你們的事工還有什麼需要,可以跟我們的聽眾朋友分享?
	陳:我們需要大家的代禱,我們有一個網站,你只要點「鄉村福音」,或者「鄉福」就可以看到。那上面有我們很多的消息,代禱事項。我們很需要人力,我們也在鼓勵一些可以提早退休的基督徒,特別早期在美國的移民、留學生。如果他們的孩子都長大了,我們鼓勵他投入宣教工作,叫作「事奉第二春」,被神所用。
	到目前大概每年都有一對從美國回去的家庭,他們真的是賣掉房子回去。然後我們每年11月,辦一個「壯年體驗營」,有6天的時間,全部為了幫助這些可以提早退休的人服事而設計的,在我們的網站上有。
	感謝主,那麼在經費上,「鄉福」也算是一個信心的團體,我們沒有特別向外募款,但是很感謝神,我不那麼擔心財務的狀況,只要忠心做神要我們做的事情。
	林:感謝主,你還希望有什麼更好的開拓跟展望呢?
	陳:我們的負擔是在台灣的鄉鎮,我剛才提到,台灣鄉鎮最主要的是民間信仰的問題,根深蒂固。從最早的移民到這土地上幾百年,經過那麼久的時間,民間信仰的種子已經長成一棵大樹。暑假我們在鄉下開始開拓教會附近的國中或國小,辦20個營會。台灣的大學生大概300多人,北美回去的有100多人,這已經是個不小的事工。每年參加的國中生和國小高年級超過1300人,我們就在這些營會中把福音種子撒在他們的生命裡面。這幾年慢慢聽到一些見證,7-8年前他唸國中一年級,他參加這個營會,現在信了主,上了大學,又回來當輔導。我們也在培養年輕的同工,支持他們唸神學院,或者鼓勵提早退休的人。我們想盡辦法,徵召願意宣教的人力去鄉鎮,像一粒麥子種下去,10年、20年以後,教會一定會成長起來,我相信台灣民間信仰的這塊土質是會改變的。
	林:感謝主,你們有5個孩子,相當不容易,你們是怎麼處理的呢?
	陳:我想這點很感恩啦,師母本身也是傳道人,家庭要兼顧。當然我們是有分工的,也有很多的溝通協調,時間久了,她了解我,我也了解她,凡事互相體諒。孩子也慢慢的長大,我們是越來越好,看到神的恩典在我們家庭裡面。
	林:非常感謝陳牧師給我們這麼美好的分享,願神賜力量在你的事工上,也施恩在你的家庭,感謝讚美主!

    Summary
    Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have had a fiery 90-minute debate in Philadelphia - their first of the 2024 US presidential election
    kra15.gl
    After shaking hands - it was the first time they had met - the pair debated policy before moving onto more personal attacks

    Harris said people leave Trump rallies early "out of exhaustion and boredom" - he said people don't go to hers in the first place
    kra5.cc
    https://krak8.com
    Trump criticised Harris's record on immigration and the border, and also her shifting policy positions - Harris blamed him for "Trump abortion bans" and for the 6 January attacks on the US Capitol

    Snap polls suggest Harris won the debate, but Trump says afterwards that she "lost very badly"

    With the election taking place on 5 November, Harris is slightly ahead in national opinion polls - but polls are very tight in key battleground states

    Shortly after the debate, Taylor Swift endorsed Harris on Instagram, calling her a ''gifted leader''

    I can drive people to modify to English, and that seems an improvement in comparison with 20 years ago, but I've managed to get by more often than not.

    On a long-dormant pad in Florida, a rocket that could challenge SpaceX’s dominance is poised to launch
    kraken тор

    On a Florida launchpad that has been dormant for almost two decades, a new, roughly 320-foot (98-meter) rocket — developed by Jeff Bezos’ company Blue Origin — is poised for its maiden flight.

    The uncrewed launch vehicle, called New Glenn, will mark Blue Origin’s first attempt to send a rocket to orbit, a feat necessary if the company hopes to chip away at SpaceX’s long-held dominance in the industry.

    New Glenn is set to lift off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station as early as next week.

    The rocket, which stands about as tall as a 30-story building, consists of several parts: The first-stage rocket booster gives the initial thrust at liftoff. Atop the booster is an upper rocket stage that includes a cargo bay protected by a nose cone that will house experimental technology for this mission.

    And, in an attempt to replicate the success that SpaceX has found reusing rocket boosters over the past decade, Blue Origin will also aim to guide New Glenn’s first-stage rocket booster back to a safe landing on a seafaring platform — named Jacklyn for Bezos’ mother — minutes after takeoff.

    Like SpaceX, Blue Origin will seek to recover, refurbish and reuse first-stage rocket boosters to drive down costs.

    For this inaugural mission, a smooth flight is not guaranteed.

    But the eventual success of New Glenn, named after storied NASA astronaut John Glenn, is instrumental to some of Blue Origin’s most ambitious goals.

    The rocket could one day power national security launches, haul Amazon internet satellites to space and even help in the construction of a space station that Blue Origin is developing with commercial partners.

    A year ago today, things went from bad to worse for Boeing
    кракен онион

    At 5 p.m. PT on January 5, 2024, Boeing seemed like a company on the upswing. It didn’t last. Minutes later, a near-tragedy set off a full year of problems.

    As Alaska Airlines flight 1282 climbed to 16,000 feet in its departure from Portland, Oregon, a door plug blew out near the rear of the plane, leaving a gaping hole in the fuselage. Phones and clothing were ripped away from passengers and sent hurtling into the night sky. Oxygen masks dropped, and the rush of air twisted seats next to the hole toward the opening.

    Fortunately, those were among the few empty seats on the flight, and the crew got the plane on the ground without any serious injuries. The incident could have been far worse — even a fatal crash.

    Not much has gone right for Boeing ever since. The company has had one misstep after another, ranging from embarrassing to horrifying. And many of the problems are poised to extend into 2025 and perhaps beyond.

    The problems were capped by another Boeing crash in South Korea that killed 179 people on December 29 in what was in the year’s worst aviation disaster. The cause of the crash of a 15-year old Boeing jet flown by Korean discount carrier Jeju Air is still under investigation, and it is quite possible that Boeing will not be found liable for anything that led to the tragedy.
    But unlike the Jeju crash, most of the problems of the last 12 months have clearly been Boeing’s fault.

    And 2024 was the sixth straight year of serious problems for the once proud, now embattled company, starting with the 20-month grounding of its best selling plane, the 737 Max, following two fatal crashes in late 2018 and early 2019, which killed 346 people.

    Still the outlook for 2024 right before the Alaska Air incident had been somewhat promising. The company had just achieved the best sales month in its history in December 2023, capping its strongest sales year since 2018.

    It was believed to be on the verge of getting Federal Aviation Administration approval for two new models, the 737 Max 7 and Max 10, with airline customers eager to take delivery. Approvals and deliveries of its next generation widebody, the 777X, were believed to be close behind. Its production rate had been climbing and there were hopes that it could be on the verge of returning to profitability for the first time since 2018.
