CBN ANIMATION’S
“I WANTED TO BE LIKE DANIEL”
Your compassionate support helps lead children to the Lord
Eleven-year-old Bakti,* who was raised in Indonesia, faced pressure to conform to Islam. “I was told I had to memorize the Quran and attend an Islamic school,” he shared.
A Sunday school teacher introduced him to CBN Animation’s Superbook at his church. Bakti recalled, “The Superbook story I watched that day was ‘In the Beginning.’”
Bakti continued attending Sunday school, where he viewed more episodes of Superbook. Later, he saw the episode about Daniel. “I learned that I wanted to be like Daniel and only worship the Lord,” he said. Bakti then prayed to become a Christian. Bakti no longer attends Islamic school. Instead, he shares Superbook stories with his family. He hopes that his loved ones will someday embrace Christianity too. Grateful for Superbook’s impact, he said, “I want to say thank you to all of the people who gave us Superbook. God bless you!”

The grand opening of the International Communications Center—which is now the Studio Headquarters Building—happened on October 6, 1979. This took place on the eve of the Feast of Tabernacles that year, and the CBN center dedicated it to the glory of God as Billy Graham gave the keynote address. To this day, The 700 Club continues to air in that very studio building.
TRADING DESPERATION FOR OPPORTUNITY
Your love gives hope to children like Donalson

Donalson’s world is a stark contrast to our own. Living with his mother, baby sister, and stepfather, the family resides on the fringes of a dump in the Dominican Republic.
In a life defined by scarcity, his home is a single-room hut where electricity and clean water are distant luxuries. Yet, his spirit shines brighter than this harsh reality.
Because of partners like you, CBN’s Orphan’s Promise is bringing hope to Donalson and others through a local ministry. Your support helps fuel programs that provide food, shelter, education, and spiritual guidance. Today, Donalson dreams of a future. He’s learning to read and write—and his laughter echoes inside the classroom.
“From the day I accepted Jesus, I started to change,” he said. “I always felt that I was poor, that I would never have anything. When I started to talk to God, everything got better.”
SHARING TRUTH THROUGH THE LENS OF FAITH
Discover Your Impact Through CBN News
Because Truth Matters ®
As a generous supporter and friend of CBN, you are making a profound difference in the world by helping us deliver news that matters—news grounded in truth, fairness, and a distinctly Christian worldview. Your commitment to our ministry enables us to broadcast stories that go beyond the surface, providing a perspective that is often overlooked by mainstream media.
In today’s rapidly changing world, the need for trustworthy news sources is more critical than ever. The media landscape is increasingly polarized, with many outlets prioritizing sensationalism over substance and bias over balance. At CBN News, we stand apart by upholding the values of truth and fairness, rooted in the belief that every story should be told from a perspective that honors God’s truth. Rob Allman, vice president of CBN News, reminds us that this commitment allows our viewers to make informed decisions, knowing they are receiving the full picture, not just one side of the story.
The mission of CBN News is to share
the truth, particularly as it pertains to issues that affect the Christian community and our nation as a whole.
In a world where biased reporting and propaganda have become the norm, CBN News remains steadfast in its dedication to providing balanced coverage that aligns with biblical principles. This approach is more than just a journalistic standard; it’s a reflection of our calling to be a light in a world that increasingly seeks to silence the truth.
Our dedication to honest reporting is grounded in Scripture. As Allman observes, today’s media environment often mirrors the warning in 2 Timothy 4:3, where Paul writes, For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. At CBN News, we resist this trend by challenging our viewers to think critically and biblically about the issues that shape our world.
God’s guidance—combined with your incredible support—is the driving force
behind everything we do at CBN News. It allows us to report on critical issues from a Christian perspective, ensuring that our audience hears stories that reflect their values and faith. Whether it’s covering religious liberty, defending the sanctity of life, or shining a light on the persecution of Christians around the globe, your generosity enables us to keep these vital stories at the forefront.
In addition to our core news programming, CBN News offers comprehensive coverage across multiple platforms, making it easier than ever for viewers to access the information they need. Utilizing our website at CBNNews.com, the CBN News app, and our social media presence on YouTube and other digital platforms, we are committed to reaching as many people as possible with the truth. We also broadcast on the CBN News Channel, available through cable providers like Xfinity in 29 states and Washington, D.C., and on The 700 Club via Freeform and 13 Over-the-Air (OTA) channels. This broad accessibility ensures that no matter where our viewers are, they can stay informed and inspired.
Our commitment to truth extends beyond the headlines. At CBN News, we believe that every story we tell should reflect the values of faith, integrity, and compassion. This mission is not just about delivering the news—it’s about making a difference in the lives of our viewers and the world at large. Through your support, you are helping us accomplish this goal. You are ensuring that CBN News can continue to share stories that matter, stories that inspire hope, and stories that uphold the truth.
As we look to the future, we are excited about the opportunities ahead to expand our reach and deepen our impact. But we know that none of this would be possible without you. Your partnership with CBN News is transforming lives and bringing the light of Christ into some of the darkest corners of the world. Thank you for your continued support.

The Secret Place by Marissa Nordlum
Digital Graphic Designer, CBN
Are your prayers tired and boring? Have you ever found yourself in a season where you’ve become apathetic to feeling God’s presence in prayer? Perhaps you only pray when you have a 911 request. I can relate to you. Let us choose to see prayer and our connection to God differently today.
Matthew 6:5-6 ( nlt ) says:
When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father who sees everything will reward you.
People often refer to this place of private prayer with the Lord as the “secret place.” This is an intimate place of fellowship that Jesus, our Savior, often withdrew to (Luke 5:15-16).
Jesus is calling us into that type of fellowship—a place where we can be in genuine communion with God. It’s a continual place of prayer where the conversation never ends. This type of prayer life fosters connection, healing, and freedom. If your prayer life revolves around public moments, begin to allow God to call you into deeper fellowship with Him. Start now, even with just five minutes in private prayer. God awaits. And once you begin, you’ll crave the richness of intimate conversation with Him— for His presence is a well that never runs dry.
Q&A
with Gordon Robertson
Watch
Is a Word of Knowledge just for one person, or can several people claim the same healing?
The Bible says that the Word of God is seed. If a farmer goes out and plants wheat seed but then expects a corn crop, what do you think of the farmer? You reap what you sow.
If you’re sowing words of healing that land in good soil, it can produce a crop of 30-fold, 60-fold, or 100-fold (see Mark 4:3-8).
And when someone receives that Word of Knowledge and is healed, the person can say, “I want to spread this Word”—and it multiplies again.
When Jesus spoke, He was speaking for all time. His words in the Bible are powerful seeds that still have the same power, force, and effect—and they are still producing crops today. God bless you!

SMART IDEAS
A Witness to the Nations
By Gordon Robertson President and CEO
It’s incredible to look back at the momentous events that have rocked America, Israel, and the world over the past year. Indeed, you and I are witnessing history being made. The need is greater than ever for those events to be reported in a clear, factual way from a Christian perspective.
That’s why I am so grateful for the sure footing CBN News has provided during these tumultuous times. Our entire news team goes above and beyond the call of duty to broadcast in-depth reporting about the momentous events that are shaping our future.
Often on The 700 Club, we feature live updates from Chris Mitchell, our CBN News bureau chief in Jerusalem. He is our “watchman on the wall,” reporting from the field and from our news studio overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives, where Christ will return someday.
Through your dedicated prayers and support of CBN, you too are a watchman
on the wall—helping to alert the world about significant events that are unfolding before our eyes today.
CBN’s guiding verse is engraved over the doors of our buildings and should be engraved on our hearts as well. In Matthew 24:14, Jesus tells us:
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.”
Together, we are proclaiming the Good News of Jesus and preparing the nations for His return—empowered by His Spirit, His anointing, and His ability.
And we have His promise in Isaiah 59:21: “As for Me,” says the Lord, “this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants … from this time and forevermore.”
God bless you!
Scripture is quoted from the NKJV.
