Message from the President
New Year,
New Opportunities!
Nothing invites creativity like a blank sheet of paper. And
I am glad God gives us the new year wrapped up in the
bright, blank paper of new beginnings. But what will we do
with it?
You, our loyal partner, have prayed and supported Hope
Channel since we began in 2003. As we start our twelfth
year, we believe what God has done in the past is but a
token of what He has planned for the future!
Let me share with you some of our goals for 2015.
Sharing Jesus. Hope Channel looks forward to continuing
to influence people to seriously consider Jesus Christ and
the Bible truths crucial to the times in which we live. In 2015
we look forward to tens of thousands of people accepting
Jesus and eagerly awaiting His Second Coming.
Adding new programs. Our goal is to be the best in
Christian television. Why? Because God gave His best in
Jesus Christ and we can do nothing less. You will be thrilled
with Revolutionary: Jesus Then, Jesus Now, a program to be
released in 2015. We strive to improve our programming so
you can always have an enjoyable viewing experience at
Hope Channel.
with the rest of the channels in the Hope Channel Network,
these new channels will air contextualized programing
in local languages. This expansion represents millions of
potential new viewers. Additionally, we will be adding Los
Angeles to the list of major U.S. cities where Hope Channel
is on free-to-air television (see p. 14 for details).
Space and time do not allow me to mention more of our
plans, but there are two key concepts that describe Hope
Channel: sharing Jesus and growing our broadcast network!
We intend to push forward boldly to fulfill the mission of
Jesus Christ to take the Gospel to the entire world.
Hope Channel’s ministry is possible only because of your
support and God’s blessings. Thank you for being a partner
in prayer and financial support for this broadcast ministry.
Your friend,
Brad Thorp
Improving our service. As part of our commitment to
excellence, in 2014 we installed a new broadcast delivery
system to stabilize and expand our cable and Internet
distribution, enabling us to provide you with a better
variety of programs in 2015. This upgrade will make Hope
Channel available to hundreds of thousands of more
homes!
Extending distribution. In 2003 we began with one Hope
Channel. Today we have thirty-three channels broadcasting
full time. In 2015, we will be adding five new channels: three
in Inter-America; one in Fiji; and one in New Zealand. As

What Viewers are Saying
Chairman, Board of Directors
Pardon Mwansa
My friends and I have been getting
together once a week for many years
to have a meal and support one
another through all the problems we
go through. Recently one of my friends
suggested that we watch Let’s Pray
together before we talk about our
problems. What a difference Let’s Pray
has made to our little support group!
We now have others besides ourselves
for whom to pray.

I made the best entertainment decision
ever—I cancelled my cable subscription
and bought a Roku stick.* Now I get to
watch all my favorite television channels,
including Hope Channel, and don’t have a
monthly cable bill.
—Yvette
Flipping through the channels, I found Hope
Channel quite by accident. GOD? was playing,
and I loved it. Some of the questions about
life that I’ve been wondering about for many
years have been answered by that show. I love
it and will be sharing it with my friends.
—Sherman
My day is not the same when I don’t watch
Hope Channel. It is always playing in the
background when I’m getting ready to leave
for work and whatever I hear helps me have
a better day.
—Arthur
For as long as I can remember, my mother has
been depressed and has refused to get help.
I started watching Cross Connection with her
Tuesday evenings just as something to do. The
show uplifted her spirit so much and she has
finally made an appointment to see a doctor.
—Joseph
I am a nurse and love good health shows.
Dr. Oz is my favorite. Go Healthy for Good on
Hope Channel is my second favorite. I love
everything about it. And even though I am a
health professional, I learn new things from
Hope Channel all the time.
—Fred

glad I support a ministry that shares the good
news of Jesus Christ.

The Fragile Teacup
“See you tomorrow!”
Yu called out as she waved goodbye
to her friends as they left her home
to return to their own homes and responsibilities. They had spent the afternoon watching TV, sipping tea, and sharing stories of how God was working in their lives. Looking back, Yu recollected
the twists and turns that had led her to this point. Eighty-four years old, she was still in awe at
how God had used her quiet introverted spirit in such a miraculous way; at how, of the billion and
more people in China, He picked her to start a ministry. Gathering up the dirty teacups to wash,
she remembered how it all began so many years ago.

It began when she retired. After years of hard work, Yu was
slowing down. She didn’t have the stamina she once had, and
she wasn’t excited about moving into a retired life of puttering around her home, being unproductive. Yet there she was,
months into retirement, doing nothing but puttering around
the house and watching a lot of television. Tiring of one channel, she would switch to another and then another and yet another. And that’s how she stumbled upon Hope Channel China
one day. Intrigued by all the new things she was learning about
a healthy, balanced Christian lifestyle, she left her television on
all day, tuned to Hope Channel.
A few times a week, she walked to the local village market to
buy fresh vegetables and groceries. But other than that, Yu was
confined to her home. There were a few women at the marketplace with whom she exchanged pleasantries, but other than
that, she had no one she could call a friend.
Every day was the same as the day before. She was definitely
not enjoying retirement.
One bleak winter afternoon, Yu was watching Hope Channel
and wishing the sun would linger a little longer and delay the
long, lonely night ahead of her. Just then there was an unexpected knock on the door. Unprepared for a visitor, Yu made
a feeble attempt at straightening out her wrinkled apron as
she opened the door. It was Tien, a woman she had met at the
market a few months earlier. She didn’t know Tien very well. In
fact she knew very little about her except that she lived a few
villages over. What could she possibly want, Yu wondered.
Seeing the puzzled look on Yu’s face, Tien said, “Please, I need
your help. Something tells me that you can help.”
Before Sister Yu could even invite her in, Tien was walking toward the couch, talking excitedly about a conversation she had
overhead at the market, in a quiet corner behind the butcher’s
HOPELINK

stall. The people were talking about a holy book called the
Bible and were sharing stories that they read in that book.
She wanted to know more, but was afraid to show any interest. And just then, something inside of her said, “Go talk to Yu.
She will help you.” The feeling was so strong that Tien immediately set out to find Yu’s home, asking many people along
the way for directions.
Yu was so shocked by what she was hearing that she had no
words. By watching Hope Channel all these months she felt she
was a Christian in her heart, but she absolutely did not have the
confidence to share her new faith. To add to her discomfort,
she remembered hearing stories all her life of Christians being
persecuted, some of whom even mysteriously disappeared.
Yet, from somewhere inside of her, she felt the uncontrollable
urge to help Tien. So, gathering up her courage, she spoke softly, “I don’t know how to explain how and why I believe in God,
but I can sit with you in my home as you watch Hope Channel. I
am sure you will find all your answers there.” The television was
already tuned to Hope Channel. Together they watched several
shows. Tien was excited and had much to think about when
she returned home that evening.
And with that began Yu’s television-watching ministry. First it
was just Tien, but now there is a group of seven women who
meet at Yu’s home regularly to sip tea, watch Hope Channel,
and support one another with both their personal lives and
their spiritual growth.
Putting her clean tea cups back in her cupboard, Yu realized how retirement was the best thing that could ever have
happened to her. Her life had a new purpose. Like the fragile
china teacups that she brought out every week for her new
friends, God had used her fragile spirit to feed the souls of her
new friends.

HOPE CHANNEL RUSSIA
GETS RARE BROADCAST LICENSE
R
ecent events in Russia, the likes of which were improbable, if not impossible even twenty years ago,
could lead to a faith revival unseen in this vast country.
After centuries-long controls over religion, Russia began
loosening its grip on communities of faith in the early
1990s. It is within this context that God has provided
Hope Channel with its newest channel. On October 1,
2014, the Russian government issued Hope Channel a
rare television broadcast license that permits a 24/7 signal across all eleven time zones to its nearly 145 million
citizens.
From two studios (with more in development), Hope
Channel Russia is currently producing programs on
biblical and lifestyle topics. There are enough programs
on file to start broadcasting today. However, there are
still a few administrative and technological hurdles to
overcome.
Hope Channel’s Roots in Russia
Why Russia Needs Hope
Demographers report* some very bleak statistics:
• Roughly 75 percent of Russia’s population lives in
crowded big cities
• Only 30 percent of Russian babies are born healthy
• 25 percent of Russian men die before age 55, many
from alcoholism
• The damaging effects of cheap vodka and cigarettes
are rampant. In some areas as many as 90% of youth
between 15 and 17 drink vodka regularly
• Russia has more heroin addicts than any other
country
In general, since the collapse of the Communist regime
in 1991, Russians of all religions have enjoyed a relative
freedom of worship. Large numbers of abandoned or
converted religious buildings have been returned to active religious use.
It is into these circumstances God has arranged for Hope
Channel to tell of His love and forgiveness; to share
His principles for a happy, healthy life; and to prepare
millions for the world to come. This broadcast license
couldn’t have come at a more divinely-appointed time.
Since that time, the unthinkable has miraculously transpired: In 1992 Hope Channel board vice chairperson Pastor Mark Finley presented a series of gospel and proph-

Channel Europe carried Russian programming across
borders to teach the gospel and healthful living. In 2013
Hope Channel Ukraine began its 24/7 broadcast and
today carries Russian and Ukrainian language programs
by satellite, cable systems, and over-the-air stations.

Jackpot of
Opportunities
S
avvy entrepreneurs, Lazarrenna and Melwert have a keen eye for
new opportunities. More impressive is the level of risk they are willing to take in pursuit of the vision they have for their future. This is who
they are—both in their business and their faith. And this time, it looked
like they hit the jackpot!
The first opportunity was a stone quarry for sale in Palau. There were
many questions and doubts about the stone quarry business that
caused their family a lot of concern. But Lazarrenna and Melwert
pressed on with their plans. From their personal study of people in the
Bible—Moses, Gideon, and others—they knew that their stone quarry
and their lives would be used mightily for God.
Lazarrenna’s risk-taking, adventurous
spirit continues to be restless. She
now feels the calling to open a lifestyle
center and a vegetarian restaurant in
Palau. She believes her faith and her
partnership with God will somehow
make this happen too.
Keep Lazarene and her Hope
Channel ministry in your prayers.
When the quarry was ready to be opened, they realized they had a
problem—their little island did not have the labor force they needed.
So, they began recruiting workers from the Philippines and from Bangladesh. But they ran into another problem—accommodations for their
new employees.
Miraculously, another opportunity came their way—a large building that
could easily be converted into a hostel for their employees. Not only did
it have comfortable living accommodations, but it had a large common
area perfect for meals and socializing.
Within weeks, the new employees moved into their new home. Lazarrenna placed a television in the common area and left it tuned to
Hope Channel all day long. When the men were not at work or in their
rooms, they gathered to watch Hope Channel. When they missed their
families back home, Hope Channel kept them company; when they
needed an uplifting message, Hope Channel was there. And Lazarrenna
quickly became their “quarry mom.”
Observing a change in their spirits caused by Hope Channel, Lazarrena
took her role as quarry mom to the next level. She decided to fix dinner
for all the men every Friday. Cooking for thirty or more was not an easy
task, but she strongly believed that God had more in mind for her than
providing housing for the them.
Her Friday dinners slowly grew into a tradition. Over dinner, questions
would often be asked about topics learned on Hope Channel, and the
questions soon grew into Bible studies. Out of courtesy and not wanting to seem like they were taking advantage of the free meal, even the
Muslim employees participated in the Bible study.
Over the next three years, twenty Filipino employees accepted Jesus as
their Savior through Hope Channel. And Lazarrenna and Melwert helped
them start their own church so they could praise and preach in their
own language. And recently three of the Muslim workers have asked
Lazarrenna for Bible studies!

Meet Gabriel Begle
M
eet Gabriel Begle, Hope Channel’s vice president for
programming, production, and broadcast.
Raised in Argentina and other South American countries,
Begle’s education and experience are in broadcast media,
ministry, and healthcare. While new to this position, Gabriel
is not new to Hope Channel. For the past three years he has
been the producer of Hope Channel’s Go Healthy for Good!
Recognizing’s Begle’s skills and experience, Hope Channel
president Brad Thorp says, “Gabriel is just the right person
to continue leading Hope Channel in its quest to become the
premiere Christian television network.”
When asked what he envisions as Hope Channel’s future,
Begle says, “Modern TV is all about stories, and we’ll work
diligently to make Hope Channel the best storyteller in
Christian media. It’s about making a connection with a world
of people who are looking to God for a better life.”
He summarizes the existence of television ministry as one
that strives to accomplish five goals:
• Alleviate the ever-growing spiritual, mental, and physical
• Minister and touch people at a personal
level by connecting television viewers to a
local church community
• Expose the beauty, truth, and values of the
Gospel message
• Present the wholeness and
advantages of a biblical
Christian lifestyle
• Prepare everyone for
Jesus’s Second Coming
Hope Channel is excited about
the future of its programming
and production under
Begle’s vision, passion, and
leadership. With him, we
see on the horizon many
more relevant programs that
help you live a balanced Christian
lifestyle.

Change in Broadcast System
A
s of January 2015 Hope Channel will discontinue its
broadcast services of eleven years in California and will
begin broadcasting directly from its headquarters in Silver
Spring, Maryland.
To effectively manage this change and its future
broadcasting needs, Hope Channel has purchased an
advanced broadcast system that is highly automated,
customizable, and one that requires less in staff resources
and labor cost than the option used thus far. The benefit
of this new investment will be seen in better programs,
current and informational spots, higher quality images, and
ultimately a high-definition broadcast.
program schedule. We apologize for the inconvenience this
transition may cause you. But please stay with us through
this temporary period of positive change, and we promise
that at the end of it you will be blessed by a new and
improved Hope Channel experience.
During this transition period, if you can’t find your favorite
program being broadcast, you will most likely find it or
another great Hope Channel program on our website where
you can stream shows at any time, at your convenience. Just
go to hopetv.org/programs for our video-on-demand service

Los Angeles
H
ope Channel is in the final stages of
launching a new over-the-air television
broadcast in Los Angeles and outlying Southern
California areas.
Los Angeles is the second largest television market in North America with a population of more
than 14.4 million. In this metropolitan city one
out of every four people watch free, over-the-air
television.
Los Angeles will be the newest addition to
Hope Channel’s network of successful big city
broadcasts already airing in New York, Boston,
Philadelphia, and Tampa. With Los Angeles,
Hope Channel will be blessed with 24/7, lifechanging television programs in three of the five
largest television markets in North America (see
hopetv.org/watch/local-channels/ for complete
list of local, free-to-air Hope Channel stations).
This incredible opportunity to broadcast in Los
Angeles and Southern California is possible for
just 15 cents per potential viewer. However, 15
cents per viewer quickly adds up to 500,000
dollars. Over the past few months, Hope Channel has received many generous donations from
its supporters but still needs $100,000 to move
forward with the project.

Hope Channel programs touch the hearts of
people regardless of their age, economic status,
or culture. For example, Go Healthy for Good is
an excellent program for the many people in
Southern California in search of a healthy lifestyle; Unhooked addresses the needs of those
who suffer with addictions and compulsive behaviors; and Hope Sabbath School introduces
viewers to ways of faith and a relationship with
God. Hope Channel has a show for everyone in
Southern California.
This opportunity, however, will affect more than
just the people of Southern California. With Los
Angeles being the media capital of the world
and with Hollywood next door, we believe that
the reach of Hope Channel will go beyond the
ordinary, everyday people of the city. We believe that even the people in the entertainment
industry will discover a new way of living that
could affect their creative productions.
Join Hope Channel in sharing with the people of
Los Angeles the good news about Jesus Christ.
To find out more information about Hope Channel in Los Angeles or to make a donation, please
visit hopetv.org or call 888-446-7388.
