From Rick Warren…….
Take on an entirely new way of life – a God-fashioned life, a life renewed from the inside and working itself into your conduct as God accurately reproduces his character in you. Ephesians 4:22-24 (MSG)
“Why would God provide heaven on earth when he’s planned the real thing for you in eternity?”
Dear KKIM/KARS Family,
May the Strength, Peace and Wisdom of our Lord be with you and yours forever and ever!
In the last several weeks we have had many new folks join us here at the CUP! The latest is Phil! Welcome Brother!
Last night at our softball game……we lost, but GREAT time!……..Peter Arndt had the line of the night…..You Baseball fans know what a hit rookie pitcher Stephen Strasburg has been, WOW is he getting it done or what! Anyhow Peter said, “Strasburg is the only one in Washington DC that knows what he is doing!” AMEN to that! LOL! LOL!
If you are like me worry has at times played to big a part of my life! Here is some words from Phil Callaway in “Who Put My Life on fast Forward”
A Doctor once told me, “Seventy percent of all my patients could cure themselves if they would get rid of their worry and fear.”
Callaway continues………All my life I’ve had to fight worry, like a pesky mosquito, worry saps our energy and sends us in out of the bright sunshine. Perhaps the only good thing about worrying is the things we worry about never seem to happen.
Worry is a non-confidence vote in God, so let your worry be replaced by SIMPLE TRUST in HIM today. HE is at work. HE is in control. HE is in the middle of whatever is happening. has happened, or will happen to us. And HE will never take HIS children where HE has not gone.
AMEN! Let that soak in! Chew on that for awhile! I am………..
WOW! Josh McDowell Part 2 is on Focus on the Family today..replayed at 1pm today and Part 2 of Randy Alcorn on Family Life Today at 7am and 8:30pm. I am so thankful for all the wonderful programs on KKIM/KARS! By the way, part of Josh McDowell’s presentation on Focus was what he shared with us last year right here in Albuquerque at the Jubilee Festival! And as I mentioned yesterday Randy Alcorn was just in Albuquerque at Desert Springs Church! PRAISE GOD for all that HE is doing!
Yesterday I got the following note about “Brothers Day” from Pastor/FMR Congressman Bill Redmond……Bill is such a Dear Man of God…….Wow.he has touched my life and thousand more! The following is also to you! I am also going to include all my Sister’s in Christ………this is to all who Read the CUP! This is the Body of Christ………..
Happy Brothers’ Day, Brother.
This one is for you my Brother.
Be the kind of man that when your feet hit the floor each
morning the devil says “Oh Crap, he’s up!”
Brother, life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right. Love the ones who don’t
just because you can. Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly. God never said life would be
easy. He just promised it would be worth it.
Today is Brother’s day, send this to all your brothers, fathers, sons.
If you get back 7, you are loved. Happy Brothers Day!
I LOVE YA BROTHER’!!!
To the men that have touched my life. Here’s to you!!
“A real Brother walks with you when the rest of the world
walks on.”
Send this to all your Brothers because the fake ones won’t.
I am such a blessed man, to have many Brothers and Sisters in the Lord like Cowboy Clarence…….Clarence wanted me to share this story with you all here at the CUP! Clarence is always the first to encourage others!
MY FRIEND DEWEY
By Cowboy Clarence
Dewey is a radio broadcaster for a Christian station. Dewey is my friend
And my brother that I had the privilege of knowing as the associate pastor of the Church of God in Los Lunas, NM. Dewey sat with me in church and we had fun together. We had a good time, we put our arms around each others backs and when church was over he wanted to give me a Bible. I told him I had one at home with giant print. He said to me, goodbye and that he had to go back to work in Albuquerque and he hugged me.
For 35 years Dewey has been in the radio business and has 5 kids
Dewey has an eye infection and I pray that he get well very soon.
Dewey’s Uncle Joe was a veteran of the Korean war. When Dewey was a
Young boy, his uncle used to take him places.
Dewey always make me feel happy. Dewey always make feel like part of fund raising events. He tries to get me involved. That is just the way he has always been with me.
I met Dewey when I used to go to the Arc of NM Convention in Albuquerque about five or six years ago. The first time was when other people with disabilities and I did some modeling at one of the conventions. Even since then he has been a loyal friend and a strong Christian brother.
Here is a note from another Brother…….Paul Dokken from my hometown, Windom, Minnesota……Paul and I got hooked up again after 30 some years.The CUP brought us back together after being Classmates and Football managers for Coach Ron Meyer…….
Dear Dewey: So many years ago,,,, when you and I were the managers on the football team, I never had the foggiest idea about a relationship with Jesus Christ. My life has been transformed by Him and it is being blessed by you. Enjoy the opportunity to read your morning emails and always take away a thought or two to chew on.
Actually I have a prayer request. I’ve been involved with Native American ministries and have recently met a young man named Mike. (I say young,,,,, he’s in his early 40’s and has 6 children.) Mike was recently released from jail he is on my heart. He has accepted Jesus as his Saviour and is excited about sharing his faith with family and friends. Please pray that the words he uses would be the Holy Spirits and not his. Also, his wife Tanya and he are attending our church. He is looking for employment and is excited about an opportunity for a carpenter position. I would really appreciate your prayers for he and his family. Blessings to you Dewey. Take care and may God continue to richly bless you. Your friend, Paul
Here is a wonderful writing by Dr. Deb Gunderman……..it is so nice to hear from her……….
Dear Ambassadors,
Word for the Week
Have you ever walked into the break room or lunch room at your place of work and heard something like this:
First person says, “Did you hear about Bob and Nancy? Someone said that they have split up and are getting a divorce?”
The other person says, “No, where did you hear that?”
First person says, “I don’t remember but I wonder what happened. I just saw them last week at their son’s soccer game and they seemed fine. Maybe I will ask Brenda what she knows.”
When surveys are conducted about what people consider to be the top ten problems or challenges in the workplace, consistently the number one problem is gossip. A recent media report stated that sixty percent of working Americans consider gossip to be the #1 problem in the workplace. A small survey I conducted among Christian women in the workplace ended up with the same number one answer. Fifty–seven percent of these women stated that gossip was the number one workplace problem or challenge they face.
Gossip is addressed in the Old Testament as well as in the New Testament. In the Old Testament the term used is “talebearer.” It is found in Leviticus as well as several times in Proverbs. In the New Testament, the term used is “tattlers.” It is found in 1 Timothy 5:13.
As Ambassadors for Christ in the workplace we are called to a different standard than the world. Being around worldly behavior on a daily basis challenges us to stay true to God’s Word. So what does the Word tell us to do when faced with gossip in the workplace? This is a great topic for discussion. I am willing to come to your workplace to facilitate such a discussion. For our purposes here, let me direct you to Scripture that you can review on your own. James 3:6 warns us about our tongues. James 4:11 tells us to not speak evil of others. James 5:9 says not to grumble about each other. In Philippians 4:8, Paul lists the things we are to think of. In response to gossip, we can choose not to participate in the gossip and/or change the conversation from gossip to the things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous, and praiseworthy about others. May you bring God’s truth to the workplace this week in these ways.
In obedience to Him,
Dr. Deb

Many of you have sent prayers my way….Thanks so much.The Lord gave me great strength yesterday at work and also I was able to play softball last night and have a great game for God’s Glory Alone! I do all for God’s Glory! Let us ask ourselves when we are about to do something..is this for the Lord?
Jesus, we come to you in the name of our Father and ask you to touch Brother Dewey with your healing power. Lord, continue to heal his body from sickness and restore him to wholeness, that he might continue to be a testament to Your faithfulness and greatness. We ask this is your precious name!
Amen.

Dear KKIM/KARS Family
May the Strength, Peace and Wisdom of our Lord be with you and yours forever and ever!
What a wonderful…..peaceful morning here in the Duke City! The Birds are singing away and it is a bit cooler! Make sure and feed the birds and have water for them!
“I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.”
Isaiah 45:2 WOW! How powerful is that! Read that assurance from our Lord again!
You will find that today’s CUP fit’s that scripture………..
Don’t forget that Monday is Flag Day! Fly the flag and show your love for our Country! My dad, Wally, was born on Flag Day and I was born on the 4th of July! We are a very patriotic family. I sure do miss my Dad, I will never forget that he bought me my first brand new bike, before that we just got used bikes, but he bought me a new bike, red in color(my favorite color) with baskets on it for my newspapers, as I did a paper route, ON HIS BIRTHDAY! Folks in Windom who read this might remember the Old Coast to Coast Hardware store, that is where he bought it! That’s was my Dad, always putting others before himself! That gift by my Dad on his birthday was a huge lesson for me that has stuck with me to this day…….put others first.
President Woodrow Wilson in 1916 declared June 14th as Flag Day. WOW! Uncle Joe was born in 1915!
I have to say my family always flew the flag….long history of military service, local service such as being Fireman in our hometown, and just a pure love for our Country. You should see our front lawn at our house on Memorial Day, Flag Day and the 4th of July………I have flags all over!
Also something about my family and birthdays……..I told you about Dad on Flag Day, me on the 4th of July, My Grandpa Caraway on St. Patties Day, and brother Dave on Valentines Day! My Mom’s Birthday is July 5th the day after mine!
This weekend on our TV program, OPEN DOORS, Robert Montoya of Extreme Green Design talks about his Ministry for Haiti. Robert is the son of Pastor Jim Montoya, it is wonderful to see a Father and Son together in the Lord! OPEN DOORS airs on KAZQ CH 32, Comcast 22 Saturdays at 6pm and Sundays at 7pm.
I get asked from time to time, where are you going to preach next? I will be Preaching on my birthday July 4th at our home Church, Los Lunas Church of God! I will also be at Valley View Christian Church in Edgewood for the Fathers Day car show. Look for me and the KKIM Van!
I also am praying and preparing my next write up for the Windom, Minnesota newspaper. www.windomnews.com For God’s Glory Alone! I love my hometown, as it helped bring me up in a wonderful way……My hometown.WOW! What wonderful memories!
Yesterday I met for a time of discussion and prayer with my friends with Son Broadcasting! Annette, Sue, Kitty, Jim and all are always so nice to me! I give Praise and Thanks to our Lord for this relationship. I really am thankful for the time of prayer with Annette and Sue.
It is great when Christian Media can come together for the Lord, that is what we are to do….to be together…Onward Christian Soldiers. I am thankful for the relationship we have with Pastor Ray Franks at Ch 32. There is much more GODLY POWER when we come together rather than march alone.
The Body of Christ cannot be concerned who get’s the credit for work done.
Revival is underway in New Mexico…no doubt……..I see it and feel it!
Last night on NM News and Views Bill Redmond talked about Chuck Colson coming to Albuquerque on August 25th Evangelicals and Catholics coming together for this conference. It will be held at the Albuquerque Convention Center. We will keep you posted.
Another sign that revival is underway…………
Don’t ever forget that God brought Evangelicals and Catholics together to stop same sex marriage here in New Mexico.
So I see the Church coming together and Christian media, no small feat, but in God is the one with the power to do so.
Folks have asked how is Sam doing……..we are praying for Sam’s health……..
Hi there Dewey, and Sharon.
I haven’t been too well the last week, but had two great weeks before that. My Granddaughter and I went to fix-up/touch-up some statues we have here in town. It was fun, and I am teaching my Katie to paint them. She loves it, so I don’t have to worry about them getting touched up anymore. Plus she has a new job..:)
I’m going camping this coming week with my sister. Just for two nights but I plan on catching Alot of Trout! hopefully.. 😉
Then I’ve got to see a Specialist about my illness. Hopefully he can help me. My body is fighting against itself, and when I have a breakout, its very uncomfortable. Painful even. But it seems to stop on its own now, maybe after I see the Dr he will give me something to help. I can tell when its doing it, I feel very weird. I can only pray.
Thank you so much for your caring heart!! God Bless you and Sharon!! sincerely, sam
Ryan Freeman is our new KKIM Ministry Rep. Ryan’s duties are to develop relationships with Church’s and Christian Businesses. Part of his training is to talk to present day KKIM Ministry sponsors and listeners and get a Godly feel for the station. I got this email from KKIM Ministry Sponsors Eric and Chris after a phone call from Ryan……..
Shalom Dewey,
Got a call from Ryan this p.m. What a great kid! Very polite, very focused. Asked what we like about KKIM. Answer: NM News and Views. What else?, he asked. We answered the KKIM Crew’s dedication to the L-rd. It’s not about U guys – it’s about the L-rd.
Always great to hear Bill Redmond. Thanks KKIM!

One final note on this Friday…….. I called Pastor Massimo at First Baptist in Espanola last night after the radio program just to check in with him as his Church is holding vacation Bible School this week for around 200 children. I Wanted him to know we have been praying for him and his team and thanking him again for having me and Sharon up last week to preach. I also shared with him the news that the Fed’s had arrested 34 thugs in Espanola in a drug trafficking ring that distributed heroin, cocaine and meth.
Federal health officials have consistently rated Espanola has having the nations highest per capita death rate from heroin overdoses. Let us pray on this. I told Massimo I really feel God put him in Espanola because of the darkness there. He is reaching God’s little children at his Church, he is reaching into the community. By the way you can hear the excellent teachings of Pastor Massimo Sundays at 1:05pm on KKIM.
Let us pray……………
Lord, We pray for the Espanola Valley, we pray that Your light will shine in this Valley! We pray that more like Pastor Massimo will come into the Valley to Spread Your Word! We thank you Lord for the airwaves of KKIM FM that is reaching into the Valley! In the name of Jesus, AMEN!
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
