Gideon Dietrich has been working on memorizing the book of Matthew. He is only 10 years old so this seems quite an undertaking. You will be thrilled to listen to him confidently and expressively recite Chapter 1 of Matthew with all of the begats! We hope this will be encouragement to young people to memorize scripture. "Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee."

As host of the Minnesota Adventist Podcast I want to give praise and honor to my Lord and Savior and Dearest Friend, Jesus Christ, as being the inspiration behind and producer of this podcast. With His oversight and blessing, I want to offer to Seventh-Day Adventists across the state of Minnesota and beyond, news and inspiration, testimonies, interviews, sermons, music and whatever else I believe can be a help and blessing to our ever growing Adventist family. At this time, when the crescendoing judgements of God are falling upon the land and the signs of Christ's soon return are more evident everyday, we need each other. We need to band together and "press together" that we may be "one" in Christ and answer His earnest prayer to "love one another" as He has loved us. It is only in doing so, that we can help one another and others to be fully committed and ready for His soon return. "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near...." Joel 3:14 .

I, who am less than the least of His,
