A message from
Kerstin Gothson
President - Good News for All Nations

GOOD NEWS FOR ALL NATIONS
originated from the capital area of North Carolina. I saw the need to reach the total area of the Research Triangle with influx of people from all around the world.

I grew up in Sweden in a christian family and accepted Christ as my Savior at the age of 9. Later I became a Registered Nurse. A scholarship in the US and a visit to relatives in Wisconsin brought me to the USA. After additional study in North Carolina a period of time was spent in Louisiana.

I was busy as a Registered Nurse 20 years ago and for over 10 years had combined Nursing and teaching Sunday School. Arriving in North Carolina after my time in Louisiana, I enrolled in night classes at the Theological Seminary in the area, and juggled a schedule divided between the hospital, home, and church.

One of my forefathers spent his life as a pioneer missionary in China, one sister spent her life in Chile as a missionary and one cousin spent his life in Africa as a missionary. The Research Triangle surely was a mission field with people from all over the world.

When I discovered a newly opened Christian TV station, it did not take long for me to sense that a voice was needed outside the church and on the airways.Though reluctant, after much prayer the TV program Good News for All Nations was born in January of 1983. In later years my son, Robert, has been hosting programs and ministers with music and song. Robert is a teacher by profession and leads worship music in churches. He has also served as a Youth Minister in local churches.

The Apostle Paul's speech at Athens, on a missionary journey in Europe, was to become my guiding light: "From one man He (God) made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth. And He determined the times set for them, and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek Him, and perhaps reach out for Himand find Him, though He is not far from each one of us." Acts 17:26-27

The weekly TV program Good News for All Nations is seen on Cable TV in the Raleigh, NC area, on Sky Angel satellite the Angel One channel, and also some programs are sent to be uplinked on Hot Bird satellite from Kazakhstan reaching across Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. I have taken mission trips in Romania, Russia, South America and Europe.

5. "THEN THE EYES OF THE BLIND WILL BE OPENED, AND THE EARS OF THE DEAF UNSTOPPED.
THEN WILL THE LAME LEAP LIKE A DEER, AND THE TONGUE OF THE DUMB SHOUT FOR JOY.

"AND A HIGHWAY WILL BE THERE; IT WILL BE CALLED THE WAY OF HOLINESS.
THE UNCLEAN WILL NOT JOURNEY ON IT; IT WILL BE FOR THOSE WHO WALK IN THAT WAY."

"BUT ONLY THE REDEEMED WILL WALK THERE, AND THE RANSOMED OF THE LORD WILL RETURN. THEY WILL ENTER ZION WITH SINGING; EVERLASTING JOY WILL CROWN THEIR HEADS. GLADNESS AND JOY WILL OVERTAKE THEM, AND SORROW AND SIGHING WILL FLEE AWAY."

AND FOLLOWED JESUS ALONG THE ROAD."
