NO STONES AT YUVI; NO STONES AT YOU….

(Duke Jeyaraj puts the India-Sri Lanka T20 World Cup Final 2014 held on 6 April 2014 in Dhaka in poem and drives home an important message at the end!)

“Will the T20 World Cup 2014, be Captain Cool’s 3rd World Cup win as India’s Captain?”
 "Would Lanka’s Twin Towers end their T20 Careers on the peak of the Victory Mountain?"
Well, for the die-hard Cricket fan, these pre-match questions were the oft-asked refrain!
 With Kohli’s big-hitting in the 16th, certainly past 170, seemed to go, the Indian batting train!
 With him was Yuvraj, the 6-sixes-in-1-Death-Over man all geared up, one and all to entertain,
 But alas, he batted for 21 deliveries seemingly without applying his brilliant, big-hitting brain!
 His rusty, slow-coach 11, Kohli’s valiant efforts, seemed to send straight to the drain!
 What was worse, even Dhoni could make only 4 runs off 7 balls, that too after much strain!
 Raina, who plundered 17 runs in 1 Over in the Semis never got to bat and that was insane!
 With 19 scored off the last 4 – how well did Malinga & Co, the Indians at the end, did contain!
The accurate wide Yorkers they sent down could have landed in an on-pitch proverbial grain!
 Theirs was one of the best ever Death bowling efforts seen in a T20 game – this was plain!
 The Lankans were off the blocks in the 130-run target chase set for them like a Great Dane! 
Just-in Sanga’s catch wasn’t taken by Mohit and unhappy Dhoni pushed back his mane!
Sri Lanka still needed 53 in 45 with 6 wickets remaining when Mishra dismissed Thirimanne,
But the match turned conclusively when from Thisara Perera’s bat, a barrage of sixes did rain!
 Sanga & He ensured it was Lanka that took with it the T20 World Cup home in their plane!
 Kohli hugged Sanga the legend, swallowing his bitter disappointment and hiding his pain,
 In fury, stones were thrown at Yuvi’s home – he was seen that sad night as a terrible villain!


 When the numb-in-pain Yuvraj pondered, “Why are stones thrown at me by all and sundry?”
I recalled the One who refused to pick up a stone and throw it at a woman caught in adultery!
 He told her, “Leave your life of sin!” much to fury of those who watched him from the gallery!
 This “He” is Jesus, the God-in-flesh who came to release us from life’s purposeless drudgery!
 Repent from sin and turn to Him in faith, you will spend your life with him joyously in eternity!

EXAM-SEASON ABCs....

Duke Jeyaraj scripts practical tips to write exams well from the life of Paul

Here are my ABCs that will gear up students for the tough season ahead even as the examinations inch closer. These exhortations are given in a random order so that they would orderly fit an A-G acronym. Some of the exhortations are supported by an incident in the life of the most brilliant student we get to meet in the entire Bible—Paul. Here they are:

ATTEMPT questions for all the marks in your exam paper. If we don’t even attempt to answer all questions we are showing contempt towards God who loves to bless any honest effort. If your efforts were zero then even if God multiplied it a million times it would be still a zero! Before Paul achieved anything for Jesus we read that he tried to “attempt” things for Jesus (Acts 9:26).

BURN the midnight oil. Chances are that for some unavoidable reasons you have started dusting your textbooks just before the exam season. What do you do then? There is only one answer: burn the midnight oil and sacrifice sleep. If you can stay up late or get up early to watch live cricket action out of Australia and New Zealand then surely you CAN do the same for the sake of your studies. You must! If Paul had a task to complete he would not mind tossing aside sleep (2 Cor 6:5; 11:27).

CONCENTRATE when it comes to doing well in exam. What matters most is how much concentration you put in your studies and not just how long you study. It is about quality rather than mere quantity. It is about how deep you can go into your subject. Forget your friends for some time. Turn off the TV for a while. You can catch up on the latest Cricket action little later. Concentrate. Paul was quite adept at that. He wrote, “I decided to concentrate only on Jesus Christ and his death on the cross” to the Corinthians (1 Cor 2:2).

DIVIDE equal time to answer each question you know the answer for. You may know the solutions for all the problems printed in your Maths paper. But solving them on the answer sheet will only give you the marks due to you. Because Paul was a good time- manager, he could confidently tell the folks at the Ephesus church to “make the best use of the time, because the days are evil” (Eph 5:16).

ENJOY the entire exam season. Don’t think of them as a “necessary evil.” When I was in Bible School, some of my most enjoyable times were the exam times. Boy, it was fun! You see, your mind will never entrap what it never enjoys. Paul taught young Timothy about a “God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy”—your God and my God (1 Tim 6:17). If God has provided us “with everything to enjoy,” the word “everything” includes most definitely studying and examinations!

FEAR the Lord because that is the beginning of wisdom (Prov 1:7). Doing daily devotions even during exam time, praying before you start to study or before you start to write an exam, refusing to copy, etc are pragmatic ways you show the fear of God amidst an increasingly God-defying generation of students. Paul was a stand-out student in Gamaliel’s school before he met Christ, before he had the fear of the Lord. But guess what? He confesses that all that he accomplished outside of a relationship with Christ was “rubbish” (Phil 3:8).

GOOFING UP in one exam paper does not mean you are no good in that subject or that all is over. It just means you should work more hard in the same. Just a little more! So don’t give up! If that subject is Chemistry you will do well to write out the complex equations a dozen times before the exam, instead of flipping through them as you perhaps did. If that subject is Maths you would do yourself a world of good by solving the problems step by step instead of reading the already solved problem like it was an Enid Blyton’s Novel! Forget what happened in that exam and face the other exams with a fresh mind. Paul’s counsel is relevant here: “But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead” (Phil 3:13).

I could take you till we reach Z. But I guess you’ve to return to your study room…!

HELPING GOOGLE GENNERS HANDLE ROMANTIC REJECTION, THE BIBLICAL WAY!

FIVE WERE THERE TO HEAR DUKE'S TRACT DISTRIBUTION MESSAGE; NOW OVER 100 HAVE HEARD THE SAME MESSAGE!

On the 25th of January, 2014, Grabbing the Google Generation from Gehenna Mission (G4 Mission) planned a tract distribution for the area of Sainikpuri - posh locality in Secunderabad full of Google Generation youth. Five young people joined Duke in this outreach. Around 200 folks were reached with the Gospel through the "Bubbly" and "Dhoni" tract that day. Duke, Arul Johnson had a chance to meet with a gun-man and share the Gospel with him personally that day. That gun-man was given a Gospel booklet as well. Nagaraj and his friend Hareesh gave tracts to students in their college buses as well in the A. S. Rao Nagar area. We have only one life to live. It will be soon past. Whatever we do for Jesus will only last.

Post the tract distribution, Duke and these friends stood on an empty plot to pray for God to bless this evangelistic effort. Post that prayer, Duke shared a brief 12-minute message on heart-warming truths that could be learnt from Eshter Anuhya's heart-crushing end. Esther was a TCS techie was murdered (and perhaps raped) during January 2014.

That message can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/shoutaloud/esther-anuhya-heart-warming

Though only five people were there when Duke shared it, thanks to the above link, over 100 people have listened to it!

ENCOURAGING MESSAGE FROM JESUS' REPEATED MIRACLES DELIVERED TO US-HEADING IT PROS!

Duke brought a message that challenged believers who gathered on the miracles that Jesus repeated during his ministry in a thanks giving meet which Jethin Noah, a dear friend, organised. Jethin was leaving to the US for work. That challenging message Duke shared in that occasion is found here: https://soundcloud.com/shoutaloud/the-oft-repeated-miracles-of

Post that message, Evangelin Duke led in a powerful prayer of blessing. It was indeed a joy for Duke to preach in a meet which was chaired by some prominent Baptist church pastors of the city of Secunderabad.

HELPING GOOGLE GENNERS HANDLE ROMANTIC REJECTION.
 

On 2 February, 2014, at the G4 Mission rented base in Hyderabad, a Bible Study was held. Over 15 plus Google Genners joined. Hudson, not only brought couple of his friends, but played the guitar during the worship. Duke explained from the Bible how one can handle romantic rejection in what was not only a soothing talk but also a challenging talk. You can listen that talk here:

Esther Anuhya: She may be dead, but she still speaks!

Duke Jeyaraj

 She would perhaps check her WhapsApp updates early in the morning. Like you and me perhaps do. She died unexpectedly, unfortunately. Like you and I, unfortunately, perhaps can. We are talking about Esther Anuhya. Only 23. A Techie. From Machipatnam. Worked in TCS-Mumbai. Reached Mumbai's LTT Railway Station after spending Christmas holidays in her hometown in Andhra Pradesh at 4:50 AM on 5th Jan. after a long train journey which started from Vijayawada, in all likelihood, going by her cell-phone records. Co-passengers confirmed that she had alighted from the train at the Lokmanya Tilak Terminus Station in Mumbai. She checked her WhatsApp at 4:54 AM on 5th Jan., 2014, according to reports. Someone who sent her a WhatsApp message saw the double green tick and understood this. But what they did not perhaps realize was this: someone perhaps put a tick next to Esther's pic and said to himself, "I will harm this girl." Her college Professor Dad Mr. Jonathan Surendra Prasad, was waiting her call which he hoped will go this way: "Daddy, I reached my room in YWCA Hostel Andheri, Mumbai, safely. I am missing you already!" But that call never came. Early that morning, it looks like she could have hailed an auto to her hostel. Her last published tweet to the world was this: "I rather have an honest enemy than a fake friend." Whoever took her from that Railway Station tragically turned out to be a "fake friend" (see https://twitter.com/Esther_Anuhya). "Don't put too much of belief in anyone. Even your shadow leaves you when you are in the dark," she once tweeted. On that stomach-churning morning, it looks like she put her trust in someone - an auto-driver, cabdriver or whoever - much to her grave disappointment. She loved the self-defense stalwart hero-filled Japanese and Korean movies. But her efforts at self-defense on that tear-filled day came to a naught, it looks like. On 16th Jan 2014, her half-decomposed, waist-down burnt, rodents-bitten, dead body was identified in the Vikhroli Creek just meters off the Eastern Express Highway in Mumbai.Esther's uncle, Arun Kumar told a newspaper that while Esther was 5 feet 3 inches tall what remained of her body only made up two feet. The rest were burnt. Thus the nine-day long search her family launched for her in a city they knew little about came to a spine-tingling, sorry, end. The girl who wished Tennis Star, Roger Federer, a happy long life on his birthday via Twitter, did not live long, unfortunately. Her end came in the most saddest of circumstances. Was she raped and burnt to destroy evidence? "According to a preliminary post-mortem report, the victim was sexually abused before being killed," a police source said. Police suspect that she might have been gang-raped. "She might have been taken to a secluded place off the Eastern Express Highway in Bhandup, Mumbai, where she was gangraped," police sources revealed. ("Police looking at techie-gang rape theory," page 5, January 18, 2014, Hyderabad edition; The Indian Express online edition, January 23, 2014; Hyderabad Chronicle, 26 January 2014; http://www.ndtv.com/article/blog/blog-i-was-her-best-friend-writes-esther-anuhya-s-father-475404 (accessed 28 January 2014).

Hmmm. After discovering that women aren't shying away from reporting rape these days, it looks like certain shameful, stubborn, men still want to rape and go on to destroy the possibly-damning evidence by burning their rape victims. By doing that, they perhaps think they are safe. Safe from being found out. Safe from a jail punishment. But God knows, the Bible declares (Josh 22:22). These people - whoever they may be - may escape jail here on the earth, but if they do not repent and come to Christ in faith, they will not escape hell on the other side of the earth. These people who played with the very life of the girl who recently straightened her hair and showed it to her dad via skype (Esther), will be straightened on the day of the Lord without any hype. Surely. On the other side of eternity. This is true not only true about them. It's true about everyone. We all need to repent. We all need to uncover our sins. We all need to come to Christ who died on the cross for our sakes. For our sins. If we do not uncover our sins before Jesus in prayer, here and now, they will be uncovered before the whole world on that terrible judgement that is certainly coming. This is the teaching of the Bible (Read Matthew 10 and 25 in the Bible and you will get this). The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast - so warns the Bible in Proverbs 5:22. Burning evidence of transgression cannot ensure escape from punishment, whoever we may be. Your sin will eventually find you out, the Bible teaches (Num. 32:23). On this side of eternity in certain cases like it happened in the case of Achan, Prophet Jonah, Ananias-Saphira, etc., in the Bible. Or on the other side of eternity like it will surely happen for those who reject Jesus stubbornly finally and go to hell. The fire that the perpetrators of the horrific crime against Esther Anuhya started died down. But the fire of torment in hell will never die down, Jesus warned (Mark 9:47-48). So, why do you run and hide? Come to only-God-in-flesh Jesus in true repentance and hide in His grace that was expressed on the Cross where he shed his blood for you. Do it now. Before it's too late. There is no condemnation for those who go on being in Christ Jesus, the Bible teaches (Rom. 8:1).

ANOTHER YEAR OF THROWING THE FIRE OF GOD ON THE FACEBOOK FOLKS: GRABBING THE GOOGLE GENERATION FROM GEHENNA MISSION (G4 Mission) REPORT 2013

We praise God for the wonderful way he has led us in Grabbing the Google Generation From Gehenna Mission (G4 Mission) in 2013. This ministry for presentday people was founded by Duke Jeyaraj in 2006.

It was a year of SPIRITUAL BLESSING for us at G4 Mission. Duke and his wife, Evan Duke, had intense times of intercession through the year. During May and in November we had specially good week-long times of intercession. God taught us from His Word during these times on the theme of Restoration. We were part of the RZIM National Conference where we learnt edifying and enlightening truths from Dr. Ravi Zacharias and his speaking team during Sept 2013. Receiving a book from the great man for having won a Facebook contest RZIM ran was an unforgettable experience for Duke this year. While driving our car during 2013, we listened to Uncle R. Stanley's message, Arrows of Discouragement, which was a big blessing. We have been blessed by the preaching of our local pastor, Sis. Arlene Stubbs. Her series from the book of Hebrews enabled us to learn fresh lessons and taught us that our fight against popular false teaching like hyper-grace and health-wealth Gospel was on the right track. We were blessed by the messages of Rev. Valson Varghese and Rev. Younus Samuel as well in the church we are every Sunday if we not ministering elsewhere.

It was a year of MATERIAL BLESSINGS for us at G4 Mission. In 2013, the Lord graciously added very useful things. We don't do ministry to get things. But things are useful to do the ministry in a more efficient way. We were blessed with a Yellow Vespa Scooter in April 2013. We were blessed with a Benq GP 10 projector this year. As the icing in the God-given cake, we were blessed with a 20 20 Dell All-in-One Personal Computer this December. All the three gifts were given by Indians friends of our little work for the Lord. Three Indians made a single offering/donation/bank transfer for us to be able to buy these. "This is the Lord's doing and its marvellous in our eyes!"

It was a year of FINANCIAL BLESSINGS for us at G4 Mission. God moved the hearts of Indian folks of our ministry and as a result they made that online transfer, sent that money order, sent money through Western Union, etc, to us, this year. And as a result, every ministry bill is paid and all our needs were taken care of. We had offerings sent to us from those living Tinsukia to those in Tirunelveli! There were those who dropped in Rs.20, those who sent Rs.200 Rupees, those who sent Rs.2000 rupees Rupees, for our ministry this year at various time! And for each of those sacrificial givers we praise God! Even those in fulltime ministry were moved by the Spirit to send us an offering this year! Like we always do, we too have given more than a tithe of what we received to ministries we believe the Lord lead us to support, this year.

It was a year of MINISTERIAL BLESSINGS for us at G4 Mission. The following paragraphs talk about this.

Because Duke is in the final phase of writing of my Doctor of Ministry project, he could not take up too many preaching assignments this year. There were invitations to preach in places like Punjab, which Duke could not take up because of this very reason.

Every month of this year, we were able to have a Bible Study for a small group of Google Genners at our home/base. These Bible study messages were audio and video recorded and made available in www.soundcloud.com/shoutaloud (audio) and in www.youtube.com/visitduke (video) for a larger audience. In fact, our SoundCloud account was set up this year thanks to the generous giving of a young Indian man blessed by the online messages of Duke. Our Youtube video channel has now over 125,000 hits. In these monthly Bible Studies, Duke summarized the message of the books of 2nd Peter, John, I John, 2 John, 3 John, Jude and Revelation this year. Each time he used the name of the relevant Bible book as a summary for its message. For example, the message of Revelation was put in the acronym r-e-v-e-l-a-t-i-o-n. These Bible Study outlines were made available at www.FreshBibleStudy.WordPress.com - a place to visit for Duke’s sermon outlines which are still raw. Duke taught on Sexual Ethics, Fasting, Discipleship and Starting Workplace Small Group Fellowships, Intercession, etc, as well to small groups of Youtube Youth, this year, via Bible Studies at the G4 Mission rented base at various times.

From June 2013, we have had the FOUNTAIN OF TEARS AGAINST MOUNTAIN OF FEARS (name based on Jeremiah 9:1,10 given to us while we were fasting in May 2013) fasting prayer every month to encourage the Facebook Folks to seek God's face. It was a blessing to intercede for the lost, the leaders and nations before praying for personal needs amidst us. Some people received miracles after attending this event and we praise God and give him the glory. Prayer is the stop that keeps us going!

Duke and Evan ministered in a camp for corporates in Bangalore, this year. The husband-wife duo not only preached in various sessions together but also answered questions posed by the young pros who came from different cities to attend this camp. Duke’s doctoral course research is about developing discipleship strategies for IT Professionals. Braving hairline fracture, Evan Duke stood to hear IT Professionals talk about their personal struggles and gave them Biblical answers that came from a warm heart and an eloquent tongue, this year. Her message in the birthday party of an 8-year-old this year titled, “Little Boys of the Bible,” was talked about long after it was shared. Evan shared an encouraging Word from Job in the Living Spring English Church - Assemblies of God this year. An International Student present testified to the blessings of that message.

Helping churches in their existing youth ministry is one task we are often called for. Rev. Chaitanya Gera, invited Duke to minister to the youth of his church this year. The direct, dynamic messages moved Google Genners who attended the special 1 day meeting organised by Capstone Church. The questions of young people on a rainbow range of topics were answered with clarity and conviction.

Duke encouraged the believers of a large AG church during their lent season fasting prayer with two messages, this year. Duke spoke in the Sunday Services in towns as diverse as Trichy, Kolkata, New Delhi and Chennai this year. One of his most-remembered messages was from the Bible character of Uriah. He used this character to call the church believers to become faithful soldiers for Jesus. Duke even addressed the married women of a leading church telling them ways from the Bible as to how to understand typical men better, this year.

Both Duke and Evan were involved in direct counseling, internet counseling and phone counseling this year. Marriages broken-down, questions about porn-watching, masturbation, sex, relationships, life partner choice confusion, etc. were answered, biblically and frankly with a heart of compassion. Young people were constantly told what they should hear, not what they wanted to hear.

Writing remains Duke’s primary call. The South India Assemblies of God published Duke’s article on effective youth ministry in their magazine in 2013. Through Facebook updates (www.facebook.com/googleduke), through blog posts (www.purposespot.blogspot.in), Duke continued to wrap Bible Truth around contemporary events Jesus style, even this year. We continued to publish our magazine that does that, The Days of Your Youth, this year as well, though we were limited by Duke’s doctoral course commitments. Not only that. We printed two of our Gospel tracts for the Google Generation this year. They were called Bubbly Outside, Yet Empty Inside? And Two Who Willingly Walked Into Tough Situations: Dhoni and Guess Who? The Bubbly tract and the Dhoni tract were given in 10 different locations (malls, railways stations, traffic signals, outside college campuses, etc) during 10 different months by G4 Mission volunteers (including Duke) this year. A fellowship in Singapore ordered 300 copies of the Bubbly tract this year. A medical college student fellowship ordered 1000 copies of the Bubbly tract this year. Some volunteers testified that they gave their first ever Gospel tract through G4 Mission this year! This year Duke made fully online his two books – No Beating About the Bush Straight Talk & Good News for the Google Generation - in his Scribd account - www.scribd.com/duke_jeyaraj. We continued to distribute our two books. Eight copies of our twin books were ordered by students of Angola origin in the month of December 2013. A young woman living in Jharkhand wrote to us saying, "I have already both your books. When are you going to write your next book?" Plans are on the anvil for two more books of Duke.

Fighting false doctrine that is thriving amidst the Google Generation is also a God-ordained task for us. While we don’t attack the preacher preaching this, we attack the doctrine. We give a rousing call for all believers and preachers to get back to the Bible. This year Duke preached a message in a roof-top of a home fellowship taking the roof off some popular false doctrines like the Health-Wealth Gospel and Hyper-Grace. That message is in Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikqw4AgDsHM). Through Facebook debate Duke took on the popular-with-youth false doctrine of Hyper-grace.
During one of our travels in 2013, we encountered a couple who promoted Jehovah Witness teaching. We showed them from Scripture that Jesus was God and is God. The question we posed, "Where do you see that Jesus was an angel (which is what they claim) in the Bible?" stumped them.


Preaching old-fashioned evangelistic messages is our priority. During August this year, Duke preached a simple, straight Gospel message wrapped around contemporary events (including a quote from Actor Nagarjuna's dad!) to over 1000 college students in a Youth Alive event. Some of them came forward to receive Jesus. In an Orphanage this year, Duke preached a Gospel message from the Christmas narrative. Post that message, young people (from first standard to B. Tech first Year) came forward and received Jesus as Savior standing around a campfire. Our prayer is that the fire lit in their hearts should not die out. Neither should it die out in our hearts!

On World Aids Day 2013 – December 1 – we had an evangelistic conversations dinner in a mall in Hyderabad.  People from different faiths joined in. As people ate food, Duke in a conversational manner, wrapped the Gospel around a AIDS awareness message with references to Tarun Tejpal, Zaheer Khan, etc. Duke led in sinners prayer following that dinner which some who joined the dinner joined in. Some questions the folks who gathered asked were also answered.

We are glad for the opportunity to impact more than one church denomination or more than one organization. This year, God gave us an opportunity to work in programs organized by the Assemblies of God, CSI, Baptist churches. This year, the Lord saw it good to have us speak in meetings organized by Heart-Shakers, Aradana TV, etc. In a RZIM meeting in Hyderabad this year, Duke shared on Bible’s views on Divorce.

God continued to bless you with volunteers as well praying and giving partners this year. Our volunteers help us with day-to-day ministry running. Sunil Babu, our volunteer, loaded countless Youtube videos of ours onto our Youtube channel (www.youtube.com/visitduke) and our SoundCloud channel (www.soundcloud.com/shoutaloud) so faithfully. Eugene Pandian helped design our magazine covers and host our main website, www.googlegeneration.in. Rajasekhar edited some of our videos. Florussel uploaded Duke’s gospel articles to the www.PurposeSpot.blogspot.com. Fenella Nirmal takes care of www.g-4mission.blogspot.com - our ministry news blog. Santosh William helps us with uploads onto www.TheDaysOfYourYouth.com. Ruby Evangel Chandrasekar designed FB Ministry event invites. N Kingsley also did the same. Ravi Alamothu designed the inside pages of the Bubbly Gospel tract. Stephen Jothiraj helped in editing the articles I wrote. Prathusha Nakka helped with base arrangements before an event in the base and with Facebook ministry event invites. Joel Joseph helped with photography and Facebook ministry event invites. Jeyanthi Vuppula, Benjamin Taylor, Preeti Iona Vemu and others have helped in worship in our base events at various times. Bro. Chitty helped with Telugu translation of Duke’s messages. Bro. Christopher was there to help when it came to logistics and moving things. Silver Ramesh annan was there to advice us in his capacity as a Board Member of our ministry. This list of volunteers who helped our ministry this year is only half-full but our hearts of full of thanks to God for all of them.

For our financial partners (all of whom are Indians) what can we say? There are many ministries and you were kind to include us in the list of ministries you support and we are over-whelmed and we thank God you. There is reward for those who even give a cup of cold water to those who have gone for Jesus’ work, says the Bible. You have done much more. And much more will be your reward.

This year God saved our kids from what could have been a fatal accident in Wonderla, Bangalore. Evan Duke suffered from a hairline fracture that slowed her down for almost four-five months, this year. As we get busy with the ministry of saving “the Google Kids” the Devil targets us, our kids and our everything. But we aren’t about to slacken. We will keep at what God has called to do, till our last breath, with His Spirit enabling us.

Ours is not a 9 to 5 job done to earn some money. We look for ways to grab the Google Generation from going to Gehenna every possible way. That's one reason we give our tracts during journeys. During one train journey from Kolkata to Hyderabad, Duke walked through every compartment in that train and had the joy of giving tracts! During a flight journey this year Duke had the 'over the moon' experience of giving Gospel tracts to a Tamil movie actor.

God is blessing our ministry as this report reveal. Our children, Dale, 10 and Datasha,6, pray everyday, "Oh God of Israel, please bless me, expand our borders, let your hand be with me and keep me from evil!" God is answering this prayer.

“Everyday Atleast Ten Minutes I See Your Speech In YouTube. Really It's Helped Me To Overcome Temptations.”

Testimonies of encouragement we at
Grabbing the Google Generation from Gehenna Mission received this year - 2013

In the year 2013, we at G4 Mission received number of encouraging emails. Here are a few published with no or bare-minimum editing to smudge the identity of the writer. I must say that these are very, very kind words we don’t deserve to receive. But when they came anyway they hugely encouraged us.

HERE THEY ARE:

“I am compulsively given to the habit of fondling and sexually touching some of the girls I dropped home in my car following worship practice. In the direct message I just heard from you, I understood from God’s Word that I have sinned. I repent right now.” – a worship leader to Duke after he preached in a particular Indian city this year.

Dear Duke,
I was introduced to you in a very strange way. Though I don’t know why because it happened 1-2 years ago, now I am slowly learning. God is repeatedly reminding me to assist in some way or shape or form with your ministry. Every time I read your Facebook postings, I always feel jealous about your contributions to the Kingdom of God and your commitment to Christ. I am touched and overflowing with Joy when I read about your recent tracts distribution in Hyderabad Signals and other corners of Hyderabad because very few Pastors and Church invest so heavily on the youths. I also read several of your blog spots, watched your videos in You tube. Thanks for your ministry to the Google Generation.

On the other hand I am very inspired with your posters, tracts and other online materials to reach the losing souls. I am curious to learn from you on your simple approaches to teach the Google Generations. It may be a reverse mission journey as Americans used to send missionary and this is the time in History where America needs missionaries creative genius like you.

Thanks/Regards,

Thank you for being the Light and Salt in this dark world. It takes a few committed soldiers of Christ like you all to impact this world for the Glory of Jesus Christ.

Dear Bro Duke,
I was listening to your message (‘How to start Christian Small Group Fellowship In Your Workplace?’) on Youtube and I just love your passion and the way Lord is using you in whichever place you go. If every person who believes in Christ is ready to standup and do what you talked about in that message, our offices will be the starting places of revival/soul winning.

Hi Duke,

Thank you for your Email Message.I remember you came to one youth meeting of ours,but i dont know where exactly, and you told to give our email ids so you would email us the good news.To tell the truth i did not read any of those emails.I dont know why i didnt have time.But today I am in a very bad situation and I came upon this Email and your message or statement "hole in your heart" really struck me.I really felt listening to cine songs would fill the hole in my heart.I have gone away from Christ and I feel that emptiness in my heart and its not going away at all.

But your this Email has really taught me that only Jesus can fill that hole in my heart.I just want to say thank you brother.You are doing a wonderful Evangelical work.Praise GOD.And I pray that God will bless you and your Family.

Regards,
