In the construction building process there is a special carpenter that is called in once all of the utilities, walls, flooring, fixtures have been installed. Ordinary projects done by ordinary contractors will all too often deliver the project in this state but not so for those who seek to deliver excellence. There is a special guy that is called in to ensure perfection on the finished product.

Often, this carpenter’s skills and his attention to detail sets him far and above other carpenters who are generally considered to be experts themselves but they are not quite as proficient. They are so valuable finishers also are generally higher paid.

As a builder/ general contractor/developer, we know that the finished product’s look and feel will make the difference in how quickly your development will sell, be occupied and most importantly, for how much.

I’m reminded of the greatest finisher of all time. When the purpose for which He was born and called upon was successfully completed, His signature was placed on the job by stating: “It Is Finished!”

Jesus said “It is Fininshed”

When Jesus completed His Ministry mission of taking on the sins of the world by being tried by a court of His “peers”, beaten mercilessly to the point he wasn’t recognizable then crucified unto death on the cross, He, at The Father’s will, gave mankind it’s greatest gift since our creation: Salvation. NOW THAT’S A FINISHER! HE FINISHED WHAT HE STARTED!

Encouraged as i am as a construction professional and as an apostolic minister, i desire to be known by man and God as one who completes the building process and delivers a product where one can perfectly dwell and abide. I am even more so determined to Finish the work and purpose I have been created for by God and trained by men. That is in the realm of communications.

From a youth whose desire was to be the next Walter Cronkite and then Max Robinson, to my present state of determination to build a platform that advances the kingdom message throughout the world. The slogan I developed over 20 years ago-“taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ around the corner and around the world”- “Fulfilling the great commission through media” says it all.

Many years have passed since the vision and mission was given and became clear to me. Much trial and tribulation has occurred in my life since. The enemy of our souls has tried to overtake me and turn me back but because God has been faithful to me, I remain faithful to Him. Faithful to the call to advance this message to whosoever will receive it.

The best is yet to come!

Therefore, I recommit my heart, my hand and all I have to finishing that what He began in me. I believe the Word when God promised that He would complete the good work He began in me. The vision for GoodNews, a media platform that gives God all glory and takes His message into the world bringing His sons and daughters back home into His loving embrace.

Specifically, I present to the world- The GoodNews Network and The GoodNews Gateway. GoodNews is my brand and GoodNews in my message. In the beginning I prayed asking God to give me wisdom and understanding with the ability to fathom to see technology as it developed and how to use it for the advancement of His kingdom on the earth. He has been faithful.

I’ve studied the marketplace and have developed into a process certain key “Tools of Attraction” that lifts up the name of Jesus into the airwaves. GoodNews’ mission is to do what Jesus commanded- “If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto Him.

These “Tools” are various communications strategies, techniques and technologies that when properly and prophetically deployed, serve to carry the Gospel into every heart, every home and every mind.

Our mission is to seek to save the lost at whatever cost!

This mission is one that I cannot ignore or let die inside of me. In the days, weeks and even years to come I will pour out all that is within me to create, curate, compile to deliver information, motivation and inspiration to the marketplace. All with the purpose and intent to turn the hearts of the sons back to the Father.

I am praying that our Father will send talented, anointed, spirit filled communicators, administrators and executives who can see the value in developing a Christ Centered Communications enterprise who’s sole purpose is saving souls.

In this space I will share the vision and mission of GoodNews and how we can can labor to finish the work of the cross in the earth. We are in the last days and i firmly believe that it is the will of our Father to take command of the airwaves and present the Gospel and make disciples of men.

If this message bears witness to your calling and desire to see the world come to the saving grace of Jesus Christ, then come on aboard. We need your supply

. I commit myself to the local church to develop systems and a mindset to promote themselves to identify and reach their target markets through established and emerging media channels. 


To build a community of christian business leaders who will market their goods and services to target markets and will support the gospel Message through sponsorships, advertising and donations. Building directories and communities that gather, establish, train and support their business efforts. 


My main focus is to establish the corporate channels of GoodNews providing viewers with inspiration, motivation and entertainment. Building a “feeding hole” where they gather to drink and communicators can find, connect and influence.

 

GoodNews is a collective of apostolic Minisries to playback on our channels and build their own distinct, proprietary channels. Our concept is less about building a web for our corporate benefit but to assist associated Ministeries to create/build their unique channels and to replicate and develop new Independant and interdependent channels to ultimately become networks that replicates themselves. 


That’s the apostolic media mindset. Building collectively to extend and expand reach Into known and unknown/unreached markets. 


So now my efforts are 3 fold. 


1- build the linear and mobile channels within the GoodNews Networks. GNN flagship channel is GoodNewsTV. It is here that we are building viewership by identifying and engaging client programming for airing on our network. 


Our individual channels will begin as categories to be grown into channels. The growth model is:

  • categories= 12 programs
  • channels=1 programmers with 12 programs 
  • networks = 12 programmers with 12 programs under a central theme/organization. 

2- build GoodNews Media as the media agency that serves the business/marketing/promotional needs & activities of GoodNews Networks and client ministries & businesses. 

-We build individual and corporate media plans and strategies that reach target markets. 

-We utilize and deploy a wide range of tactics that penetrate markets to dominate through messaging. 

-We use our channels as a promotional vechile to reach our target markets (build client base) and replicate. 


The first effort is our “free gift” to local ministries and businesses- “The Perfect Near Me Marketing System”. 

We will give away the outline of the plan as a free report and fill in each category with client services that dig deeper to deliver enhanced support services.  


We will build out the “System” using PLR (Private Label Reports) reports, affiliate software, services and our client services. 


The idea is to constantly build and energize our organization through innovation, information, motivation and inspirational messages, ideas and systems. 


We want to build a community that is client based, delivering services and translate the collective into our prepietory channels- KBEN and Prosperity One Network. 


We will launch P1 August 6,2021 with the Near Me Local Marketplace Summit. 


3- The training process of NewLife HCD at Building Futures in Washington DC. Learning how to manage HUD properties to establish and build our own

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
