PPT President John Lind to be interviewed on TBN
Scottsdale, AZ – Presidential Prayer Team President/CEO John Lind will appear on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) later this month to introduce viewers to PPT and its Adopt Our Troops program.
“I look forward to sharing with the TBN audience the powerful work the Presidential Prayer Team is doing through prayer, especially through our Adopt Our Troops initiative,” Lind said. “Over 166,000 troops are being prayed for by name by over 500,000 folks who have adopted these troops. We have seen God work in miraculous ways through those who are obedient in their call to pray daily for our Armed Forces.”
The program, the Dallas, TX-area Praise the Lord segment for KDTX-TV 58, will have a patriotic theme and will be hosted by Pastor Richard Hoag. In addition to talking about PPT during the 20-minute interview, Lind will also pray for the nation’s military. The show, taped at TBN’s Dallas studios, is scheduled to air nationally and internationally on the following schedule:
- May 23 – 9:00-11:00am Central Daylight Time
- May 24 – 1:00-3:00am Central Daylight Time
- May 24 – 4:00-6:00pm Central Daylight Time
Through PPT’s Adopt Our Troops outreach, anyone can register a member of the military they know and love so he or she can be prayed for by someone else. They can also post an update on that person anytime they’d like. People are also given the option to commit to pray for a member of the military randomly selected for them from PPT’s adoption files, or pray for a specific person of their choosing.
Through the Internet at adoptourtroops.org, people are able to stay informed on each troop they’ve committed to pray for, and see at any given time how many troops are being prayed for, and how many are awaiting adoption in prayer. They are also given access to troop profiles and selected prayer resources.
PPT is a non-profit, non-partisan prayer ministry dedicated to informing and encouraging people to pray daily for our President, our leaders, our nation and our Armed Forces. Membership is free and open to anyone who is willing to commit to pray each day. Participants receive free weekly email prayer updates, access to prayer resources on the Internet, and a membership decal. To join The Presidential Prayer Team, apply at www.pptambassador.org/Team153
