In the past, we have used the phrase “For Such a Time as This” (from Esther 4:14) as our ministry theme. We used it in a way to help our prayer and financial supporters to be encouraged that we have been encouraging and equipping youth and their parents at that current time, and also that we were preparing for the future to lovingly engage people with the truth of God and His good and right ways. Then, 2020 came upon us. We truly believe, as a ministry, that we have been raised up for such a time as this. Literally, for this very moment! More than ever, people are seeking and searching for truth, but many are also seeking and searching for their own way and not Almighty God’s way.
We have been preparing for this very moment in time, and now we need your help more than ever before. We have done the hard work of preparing for this moment and building up what God has called us to do. Worldview Warriors started a blog and a podcast many years ago before they were the “in” thing to do. We stayed faithful to the work by staying faithful to the Lord and trusting in Him that the day would come when what we were offering would be so sought out by many that we eventually could be overwhelmed by people’s responses. Though we have not been overwhelmed, because I fully believe we were wise in preparing for this moment, the amount of engagement we are now receiving is very encouraging. Not only are we receiving inquiries from people about how to be in a right relationship with God Almighty, we are also receiving many comments like the following from those engaging with the ministry:
Your stance for the Word of God is encouraging. It strengthens my faith. -JH from North Carolina
I believe the Lord is telling me to contact you regarding discipling my children. Share what you did or are doing. -CK from Pennsylvania
Great message I heard from you about accountability. -KC from Ohio
Keep on keeping on. When you are discouraged. Don’t give in. I appreciate your boldness for the Kingdom of God. The work you are doing is so vital and important. You are a great encouragement to all of us. -PA from Ohio
Jason DeZurik’s passion for the Lord and his willingness to seek and engage with the truth in love is unparalleled. Your faith in Jesus is very encouraging. -IW from Michigan
You sir are, and will continue to be, the villain of this story. Because you speak against the new virtues (of the world). You are the crazy one now. But, continue, there are still some crazy people left that are seeing what you see. -A message sent to Jason DeZurik from TC in Ohio
God has been so good to us, and we thank you for being such a faithful partner in allowing us to do God’s work and to do His will in this way. We are all moving into a new year; 2021 starts tomorrow. Many of us now have seen the Church and our foundational beliefs being shredded, not only in the public square but even by those many of us may have learned from and followed in learning about Christ in the past. I know this is a hard truth to swallow, but I truly believe we need to be open and honest with each other more than ever before. I believe God is wanting His people to be unified right now. He wants us to come under His banner and proclaim truth in love. He is looking for those who are not only standing on the Word of God through prayer and petition, but also to those who are willing to act on His Word in love as well.
As Scripture states, “As far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone” (Romans 12:18). Please keep in mind, peace doesn’t mean without difficulty. I think many of us have thought that peace means being without difficulty or without disagreement with one another. I believe God is calling those in His Church to dig even deeper into His glorious and wonderful ways all in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. He wants us to grow and become mature and complete, not lacking anything. More than ever, we need to be as iron sharpens iron.
