A Note from Jim
As we move from our Thanksgiving celebrations to our celebrations of the
Christmas season, we at Justapreacher Ministries are overwhelmed with
thankfulness to God for all He has done in these twenty-plus years of
ministry! Thanksgiving teaches us to be thankful for all God has blessed
us with, and Christmas reminds us of God’s greatest gift. God sent His
Son as a man to pay the price for our sins, so we could be forgiven and
spend eternity in His presence. These end-of-the-year celebrations help
us focus on thankfulness and giving. This is why we take a couple of
minutes of your time each year-end to let you know how much we thank God
for your partnership with us in this ministry through your gifts. God
has truly blessed us over the years and has provided for us as He
promised He would! He has brought us through times of need and times of
plenty, but no matter what, we trust Him to provide for us since He has
promised in His Word that He will. And He has! He has provided for this
ministry these 20 years through monthly supporters, as well as
occasional gifts, and we thank God for His provision. We have learned
what Paul learned in his life of living off donations:
“Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned, in whatever situation I am, to be content. 12 I
know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every
circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty
and hunger, abundance and need. 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble. 15 And
you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the
gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership
with me in giving and receiving, except you only. 16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit. 18 I
have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having
received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant
offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. 19 And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.” Philippians 4:11-20
As most of you know, to keep us relying on Him, God has challenged us to
give everything away and never to charge for anything the ministry
does. And God, in many different ways, has wonderfully provided for this
ministry for over 20 years!! We thank God, and we thank you, for how He
has used some of you in this endeavor. Like Paul, we write this not
because we are seeking a gift, but because we are thankful to God for
how He has provided through you and how He will bless us and you
together as we continue this partnership in the ministry God has called
us to. We love you! We are grateful for you! And we wish you all a Merry
Christmas!!

2025
has been a year of growth and exciting opportunities for Justapreacher
Ministries. God allowed Jim to teach Bible conferences at churches
around the country, fill the pulpit at many more, teach over seventy
Bible studies, and lead two One-Day Revelation classes in a single year!
He also spoke at special banquets, Sunday School classes, men’s
luncheons, and had the opportunity to bring God’s truth about His plan
for Israel to a Messianic congregation. Beyond Jim’s many speaking
engagements, God has greatly expanded our online reach this year. Due to
the launch of our new website and the addition of short form video
content on our social media, Justapreacher Ministries has reached
unprecedented numbers of people this year—thousands on YouTube,
Instagram, and Facebook alike, with viewers spread across more than
fifteen countries! Thank you for your prayers and support this year as
we continue to seek God's plan for Justapreacher Ministries!
