The Tide®

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.— Men who weren’t quite brave enough to be a part of The Tide® ( www.thetide.org ) ministry’s unique “Year Beard” challenge during all of 2019 still have a chance to help the global radio organization raise funds and awareness as it spreads the Gospel worldwide. The Tide ministry and “ Year Beard ” participants are on the cusp of a special monthlong observation called “No Shave November,” where guys who grow goatees, a beard or even a mustache can make a shorter facial hair commitment yet still help more people learn about the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Fourteen men have been growing their beards all year with a $1,000 fundraising goal each to help The Tide ministry purchase more airtime for its Gospel radio broadcasts in Asia, Africa and Europe. A motivating factor is the knowledge that for every dollar given, 20 more people worldwide can hear about Jesus. Thus far, $16,000 has been raised through the initiative. “The group of ‘Year Beard’ men have created s

HARRISBURG, Pa.— With a brand new radio studio up and running in Zimbabwe, more listeners are hearing the life-changing—and life-saving—Gospel of Jesus Christ through programs from  The Tide® ( www.thetide.org )  global radio ministry.

A new radio studio in Zimbabwe has allowed more listeners to hear about the saving grace of Jesus Christ through   The  Tide ®   ( www.thetide.org )  global radio ministry, as they also experience growth through downloadable devotionals and interact with pastors for prayer and other needs.  “Listeners in Zimbabwe most commonly ask for prayer concerning their marriages and relationships, finances and health,” said The Tide Director Don Shenk. “They also contact preachers with questions if they are new believers, need doctrinal clarification or are seeking encouragement and strength in their faith walk. Our partners and pastors are thankful that more are reaching out to them for guidance and insight. This means listeners are taking what they hear over the airwaves and applying it to their lives.” The new studio in Zimbabwe was under construction for many months, opened this past spring and was officially dedicated this summer. While the project has allowed more people to hear the Gospe
