Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hello everyone.
It's Brother Dylan here.
The time is now to let you guysknow the great news and several
great little small news.
We're very excited to get thisgoing and let's get right into
it, alright.
So the first thing on theagenda tonight is that Holiness

(00:25):
Preaching Online has been aroundfor a very long time.
Brother Stacey Evans hasstarted that in 2010, and he's
grown to what it is now.
I joined later, I think maybein 2015, 2016, if I'm not
mistaken.
I've been trying to help BrotherStacey with the podcast

(00:45):
ministry since then and it'sbeen going great.
I started I'm sorry, let mebacktrack, but 2015-2016, around
that time I started with himand kind of helped him.
You know, get sermons and youknow kind of promote it, promote
the ministry itself.
If I can finally spit it out,you guys know me I'm very hard

(01:11):
with words and this is verynerve-wracking sometimes, but
anyway, let's get back to it.
Helping him with the ministryas far as getting sermons to him
and kind of promoting it and,you know, helping his ministry
in a way.
And then eventually I came upwith the idea of doing the
podcast ministry part of his.

(01:32):
You know what he had startedand he was on board and you know
, whenever we started that Ican't remember what year we did,
but we did it for a while andyou know still doing it as it
was now but, um, we've beenpraying and seeking God, um, as
a podcast team.
Um, you know a lot of them.

(01:52):
We, um there were several peoplethat have joined um since you
know, I started the ministry andwe we come to a collective
agreement that we would like totry our own ministry and kind of
do a different thing, adifferent twist to it.
So we'll still be doing sermonsand having a podcast and all

(02:13):
that on Apple Podcasts andSpotify, but we're also forming
a resource for the holinessmovement.
So what that means is thatwe're going to be having, you
know, church listings, um, ofcourse, sermons.
We're going to have song lyrics.
Um, we're going to have a wayfor people to find out about the

(02:37):
events Um, like, for example,pfyc or ministers conference or
camp meetings.
We're going to have that optionfor people.
We're going to have a blogdevotionals.
We've partnered with a coupleof devotional people that's

(02:58):
going to go and write devotionsfor us and, you know, I think
that's going to be a wonderfulthing and a wonderful aspect.
I know a lot of the movementhave asked.
You know, we don't have a wholelot of holiness writers that
are writing devotionals, and sowe're going to be looking for
people to join part of that andto write devotionals.

(03:19):
And if that's something thatyou're interested in, please
send us an email.
And we're all going to becentering around trying to help
the holiness movement in a waythat they have everything there
in a center place.
I see the burden of that.
The holiness movement doesn'thave a place where everything is

(03:42):
together.
In a way.
We're going to be promotingministries, going to be
promoting a lot of things forthe holiness movement.
I have a place where everythingis together in a way.
We're going to be promotingministries, going to be
promoting a lot of things forthe holiness movement, and I
felt like we can all cometogether in a way in unity, to
be able to share our ministriestogether and work together.
So we're very excited.
So you may ask well, how are yougoing to do that, brother Dylan

(04:05):
?
Well, that leads us to the nextthing, and the very exciting
thing that we're very happy toannounce is that our ministry is
changing and it's called theHoliness Foundations.
So now that we're branched offand kind of went to our own
ministry besides the Holinesspreaching online.
We're now called HolinessFoundations.

(04:27):
We left in good terms andBrother me and Stacey Evans is,
you know, great friends andgreat brothers and, I think, the
world of him but we'reexploring as a podcast team,
we're exploring our own ministryand we're very excited to see
what direction this goes andwe're excited to see what God is

(04:48):
going to have in store for usand we're very excited.
So we're no longer being knownas Holiness Preaching Online but
Holiness Foundations.
Our podcast cover arts aregoing to change.
You're going to see a differentlogo and you're going to see
some other things on our otherpodcast.
That's going to be changing.

(05:10):
We are keeping the archive fromthe Holiness Preaching Online.
Yes, some of the intros willhave the Holiness Preaching
Online intro part of it.
I'll get that out finally, soyou may hear.
If you go down deep into thesermon or sermon archive on the

(05:32):
podcast on Spotify and Apple,you'll see.
You know you can hear theholiness preaching online.
We're eventually going to havean intro that's going to say
holiness foundations on our newsermons that we post.
Um, we are working on that andtrying to get that ready to go
and, uh, we're excited aboutthat.

(05:52):
Um, I hope this doesn't turnanybody away.
Um, I really don't hope, youknow.
We don't want to anybody to beupset or say you know, you know
why are changing?
Is you know?
Was there something going on?
No, there was nothing going on,and I just want to be
transparent with our audience.
It's just something that we'reexploring and we're excited to

(06:13):
see what God is bringing us to,and I've been praying and really
seeking God after it and I feellike this is what we need to do
, and me and the team took avote and we all agreed With.
That being said, we, you know,legally were known as Wholeness
Foundations and we're veryexcited.

(06:34):
So now you may ask how you knowyou're going to put this all
together.
The next exciting thing that wehave to announce is that our
ministry now has an app that youcan download on Google, your
Android and your iPhone.
We are partnering with Tithely.

(07:02):
They are a church managementorganization company and they've
offered to help us with an app.
When you log in and youdownload the app, you'll see
that it's got a Tithely logo,but our logo is eventually going
to change and you're going tosee our professional logo, but

(07:25):
we're going to go ahead and giveyou guys access On this app.
We're eventually going to haveseveral different resources.
We're going to have eventswhere you can see upcoming
events in the holiness movement,like ministers conference, the
fire conference, camp, meetings,revivals.
We're going to have an optionwhere you guys can go in and

(07:46):
submit that to us and then wecan post them to our app.
So we're very excited aboutthat and it's going to be.
It's going to be wonderful.
Another thing is all of ourpodcast is going to be on this
app.
So the directories and all thesermon archives for holiness
preaching online, for classicholiness sermons if you listen

(08:11):
to that one and then also forour children's ministry that is
going to be on the app.
We are going to be excited toannounce we're still in the work
in progress and it'll take sometime, but we are starting a
devotional podcast with two ofour podcast administrators and

(08:31):
they're very excited.
They're preparing and workingon getting the background of it
and getting all the informationthat they need to start doing
devotionals and doing kind of aBible plan and some doctrinal
stuff and they're really excitedto get that started and once we
get that going, we'll upload itto the app and we'll also

(08:52):
upload it to Spotify and ApplePodcasts and we'll let you guys
know whenever that's available.
We'll be making an announcementwhenever they get it up to get
to recording and start theirprocesses.
So we're very excited aboutthat.
Also, on the app, a lot ofpeople was asked this you know

(09:12):
how to submit sermons.
I know it was a pain in theprogress.
We did create like a GoogleDrive folder that you could
upload to and it went to our.
You know you had to go to theshow notes and click on that.
Well, that's going to change Onthe app.
If you have the sermons on yourphone, you can actually go into

(09:36):
the app and there's a buttonthat you can click and it takes
you to a form.
You complete the information inthe form and there's an option
where you can submit sermons tous on that form and it goes
directly to us and then we canpost all the sermons on the
podcast once you submit that tous.
So we're very excited to seethat feature.

(09:58):
Another feature is our giving.
So it's going to give us anoption just by the app.
You can click on a button andit takes you to another form and
the form will let you enteryour credit card information and
you can give to our ministry alot easier to what we have now,
and the form will let you enteryour credit card information.
You can give to our ministry alot easier to what we have now.
You don't have to sign up forsubscriptions to help us.

(10:21):
You know, with Buzzsprout oranything like that, you can just
strictly do it from the app.
You can do recurring giving oryou can just do it one time,
however you feel, so that optionwill be available.
We're still working through thegiving portion.
We have to get some legal stuffout of the way first, but that
soon will be in the process andwe're very excited to see if

(10:42):
that will benefit you all.
And we're really excited to seewhere God's going to lead in
that direction as well.
There will be other informationon there.
There's going to lead in thatdirection as well.
There'll be other informationon there.
There's going to be some prayerwall.
So if you have a prayer request, you can submit that and
everybody that has the app canactually see the prayer request
coming in and they can pray overyour prayer and as a team us.

(11:06):
Here we can pray and reallyseek God for your desired prayer
, and I feel like that's verymuch needed.
Another thing is going to be onthe app.
We're going to try to work onsome getting church listings
posted.
So like if you're out and aboutand you're vacationing and want

(11:29):
to go to church somewhere andyou want to find a good,
wholesome church, we're helpingBrother David Johnson with his
ministry and he's created awebsite that has all the church
listings on there.
You can just type in the statethat you're in and the area that
you're in and it'll take youstraight to a church that's
nearby.
So you'll have that option onour app.

(11:51):
We'll have it tied into our appand you can go on there and
check that out.
We're very excited to see thatand check that out.
And we're very excited to seethat Other ministries you know,
like Sister Blue and Mike Blue,you know with Little Mary, that

(12:13):
available for you all.
So we're very excited to kindof see what direction that's
heading.

heading.
Also, we'll have where there'sautomatic notifications on apps.
So if we send out anotification about a sermon
that's been posted, you'll seethat notification.
We'll have groups on the app,which means people can get into

(12:43):
these groups on the app andcommunicate with each other and
learn about the classic holinesssermons, anything like that.
We're excited to see what thatwill bring to our ministry.
You'll be able to reach one ofour moderators.
