Bad way to start....?

They say the number eight(8) is a sign of new beginnings. Okay, I say lets prove it and you can make a determination:
Oil
1988 I find my way to Texas meet some Christian friends, attend a local church and all seem fine in Texas.
Then In recalled to the state of Michigan where I grew up 99.9% of my life. I meet a Pastor who became my mentor for 26 years, a great thing right?
Some where in this era I bought a Asus G60 laptop. Great piece of hardware except now it sits in need of repairs.
Lastly, I wind up losing a friend over a error is judgment on both sides of the coin, if you please.

                              Fast forward
                            Janauary 2018

With the loss of my friend, financial advisor and all my financial records I move onward. After all, in life we can expect gains and losses, even friendships if you please.

Then, one morning Microsoft sent my newer Asus laptop some updates. The laptop NEVER recovered when it went into a restart. All I get us this black screen with a whirls icon that sits there for hours. So I attempt to use every shortcut I remember of my 15 plus years experience with desktop and laptop computers. End result...... zip.... zilch....nothing. I am dead in the water as they might say.

Then, even though I am paying on my Flint Michigan water bill I get what amounts to, shall we say, a nasty letter demanding more money than I have period. So now I'm faced with two disasters. As if that is not enough right? Wrong!

Of you read my last rambling you would know of the water breach in the basement due to an all day rains and very warm temperatures. Now I have this mess and the story does not end there; according to my insurance agent I need funds, that I don't have, in order to get a cleanup & repair crews in to take care of the flood.

                                       In Short

I no longer buy into the idea that the number eight is a sign of new beginnings. Unless you want to talk about disasters, malfunctions and lack of funding then I might buy into it.

                                   Life is good?

Despite pitfalls and so forth life still is better than before. At least I am not in prison, even though prison life does have its perks. At least In not living in an apartment where you may get loud neighbors from time to time. But with an apartment there's no grass to mow, snow to shovel or plow.

Life is good if you have a relationship with the very God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. A life built on faith, trust and belief is better than a life....in a body bag.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope I didn't bore you!

The Underddog

A vast majority of Christian ministries are listed as "non-profit" and do pretty well. listed as a But What happens when a ministry is "profit" ministry?  Truth of the matter is they strive to stay afloat, often digging into their own pockets to make ends meet. Thus the underdog as in the case of Thunderdome Ministries Network.

From 1983 to 1989 Thunderdome Ministries often published a newsletter. At one point  there was 150 subscribers each and every month. Sadly the newsletter had cease due to rising costs. What is even more sad is the fact that not one subscriber sent in funding.

 This is one example of what can transpire when the elect of outside God fail. And  part of it this is due to the thinking that they should receive just about everything free. In fact they believe that any outside assistance, such as in evangelism, should be paid little to nothing. 

Thunderdome Ministries is underdog ministry striving to stay afloat after all these years. How does the  ministry do so?  Well its simple; when there is a mountain to be moved we tell it to be gone in the name of Jesus. And we press on  moving the stones and rocks out of the way one bit at a time.
As of 1982 there has been one mountain  that yet needs to be moved,  obtaining funding for a homeless ranch(?) for the Christian community. And right now we are about three million dollars short.

The ministry mentioned above is not the only underdog ministry within the invisable walls of these United States. In  truth I would guess there are over five thousand underdog ministries. And they too need the assistance of the Christian community

Now dear reader, Christian, what will you do to help underdog ministries in your city, state and country? Will you assist in moving their mountains or will you hold back from the Lord?

A NEW ERA

Welcome
To
    Thunderdome Ministries Network Inc

                                                Dawn of A New Era

You know this ministry for its work in the prison ministry.  Now we embark in to a new era where the vision is as enormous. What you are about to read is a small fraction of what will occur.

                                                             Stage I

Housing for Christians who are in need of temporary(3-8 months) housing while waiting to move into their own house.

                                                                   Stage II

Temporary housing for Christian music groups on tour. Not a hotel or motel not even a dormitory but  an actual furnished house. To boot there would be parking for their tour bus in a garage large enough to hold two tour buses and do any minor repairs.

                                                             But How
                          #1. Buy 100+ acre of land with some needed buildings
                          #2. Build actual 4 bedroom rustic ranch homes via

 Monolithic Dome homes and churches   

 #3. Build a 300 seat chapel with a learning center with the same style as mentioned above in number two .

                                                                Why?
  #1. Some Christians either lose their house to fire or are buying for the first time need housing
   #2. On the road Christian musicians either sleep in their tour bus of spend money on cheap hotels or motels. Some passing Pastor could rest his head thus he too could be spared various expenses
 #3. The chapel will be used for such things as a Christian coffee house. The ministry could even hold Sunday evening services.

                                                       What About Costs?
  At present there is a location that fits a huge percentage of this new era. The listed asking price is $2,250,000 million dollars plus taxes closing costs and so forth. Thus we are looking at a need of perhaps five to ten million. Such would enable the building of not only the chapel but very well three to four houses

     NOW that you heard about this new aspect the question becomes as follows:
            
                         Will you  help us so we can help them?
            Send checks and or money orders to the following.
                          Thunderdome Ministries Network Inc.

*** This ministry is not tax deductible. Still tiled as a "profit ministry"  per the IRS. Thus all gift are classified as "love gift"

Personal Plea

I am penning this not as the founder, president, CEO of  Thundrdome Ministries !  Instead I am writing this as David Liebler aka Littlethunder. Furthermore, I am writing this as a person in need of your assistance. Allow me to explain;

Several years back I was informed  that I was legally disabled and I would not be allowed to return to the work force. That was devastating news to say the least as I am one who pretty much enjoyed going to work. Thus began the disability funds and other items that go with the territory.

Today I find myself in dire need of your assistance as money is limited. Below is a short list of thing that need to be repaired:

1. New tires on 007 Dodge Caliber
2. new brakes on 007 Dodge Caliber
3. New air filter for car
4. Tune-up for car
5. Repair heater in car
6. Suspension system on car needs repairing
7. Asus G60vx needs many things fixed and upgraded
   
   
   The above is only a small part of things that are needed.
   Will you help?

Stick To Yer Guns

This entry may be a bit lengthy but I would like to make several points. Thus if you get boarded you are free to bookmark this entry and return at a later time. With that said allow  me to proceed.

During my recent ordeal I heard advice from several  people of the family of God. Their advice was sound and sometimes even harsh when it was necessary, I knew they all were well meaning and attempting to point me into the right direction. But sometimes even when you know full well they are right there also  be another way.

One certain thing I had to take into consideration is this. God is not the author of confusion. And at times yours truly felt as if he were on a carousel that just did not seem to have rhyme or reasoning. So what does one do in cases like I was going through.

• Consider your health.  God created you to be who you are. He has done this from the time of Adam until forever.  Know your limitations and  be careful.. If you attempt to push the boundaries you will pay a price as I did. And the road to recovery could be long.
• Remember what God has done for you in the past. If God did things for you in a certain manner then He is bound to do the same thing time and time again. I call it a comfortable pattern. A pattern that God know you  can handle.
• Stand fast in His Word.  Continue reading/listening to His Holy Word. By so doing you build up your most holy faith. I choose to listen to Gods Word as the scripture says faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. If you think your not doing any good by reading His Word  you press on and continue. That Word is getting into you even if you don’t think so.
• Enjoy what is around you.  When God created this planet He did so for many reason. One of those reasons is so you can enjoy and use what is around you.
• Never loose heart. God, the very God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has a plan for your life even if you can not see it or understand it. Even if everyone is against you God is not.
• Stick to yer Guns,  Sometimes people will tell you one thing that just does not seem right between you and God. Stick to your guns and go where God is leading you, as long as it is legal. Never stick to your guns if the path is illegal. Always stay within the law. It was suggested that I go to a homeless shelter for a day or two. While that sounds good, and you may have to go that route, I stuck to my guns and waited for God to act. Now I will tell you that it may seem foolish but watch what took place: within one hour God provided a choice of two different places to stay. Mind you I had to make a few phone calls but it was Him who really opened the doors.
• Be thankful always. Yes its hard to thank God for things when your in a storm. But even in the midst of the storm the lighthouse still shines her light for safe passage. If your not thankful some may consider you ungrateful.

I have been serving the Lord since 1982 and I can say with confidence this very thing:

Your faithfulness to Him has its own rewards in the end.

Just as long as you

“Stick To Yer Guns”

Alive

It has been a while since you heard from yours truly. So allow me to give you an update.
Yours truly moved from Oakland County Michigan into Genesee County. In fact the name of the city is Fenton.

At present I am at a friend's apartment. Waiting on the Lord to bring forth funds to put on a house. During this time. God, who is rich in mercy had to break the mold to bring forth what HE wants. It has been painful but I seem to love Him more and more each day. Even as I trust Him to bring forth the funds for my first house.

So, dear reader, here is the skinny as I see it; somewhere beyond this pen and paper lies a brother/sister in the faith that God is leading to help come up with a love offering of an amount only God knows at this point and time. You know as well as I do what it takes in funding to obtain a nice home. 
And I believe the funds will come forth as YOU obey God.

God has yours truly in this area for a reason. That reason is and will be a direction change in Thunderdome Ministries and its vision.

So here is YOUR opportunity to not just be a header of HIS Word but also a doer.
If you so feel led of the Lord to help with a love gift please do so today in obedience to Him
You can send your live gift to the following address;

David Liebler
1024 North Rd.
Apt D5
Fenton Michigan 48430

If and when you give as He directs your path be sure it is in U.S. Dollars.

I am confident that as you sow the seed of faith He will bless accordingly.
Thank you for you time, prayers and faithfulness Him today.
