In a groundbreaking move, Derek Prince Ministries New Zealand has initiated the daily airing of Derek Prince's Bible teachings on Christian radio in New Zealand - in Prime Time. This marks a significant milestone for the ministry, as it is the first time in over two decades that new content from Derek Prince Ministries is being broadcast on a nationwide Christian radio platform in New Zealand. This door had been closed to Warren and his team, so we praise God with them for this amazing opportunity.
The audio podcast is a devotional series, derived from Derek's book "Foundational Truths for Christian Living," and offers a 365-day journey.
"A devotional series that does more than just “tickle” and chat"
Rhema Christian Radio
A partnership with Rhema, New Zealand's largest nationwide Christian radio station, enables DPM-NZ to reach an additional 100,000 listeners weekly, marking a significant victory. They are a permanent feature each week and air Monday to Friday – 6:50 pm & 10:45 pm, and Saturday & Sunday – 2:30 pm & 7:45 pm. Rhema is also working on getting them on Star (another national network). The radio station also requested Derek's resources for giveaways by RMG stations, which the office gladly provided.
DPM-NZ Director, Warren Smith, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "Laying the Foundations is crucial in my mind." With millions coming to Christ in recent years, he believes that a strong biblical foundation is essential for nurturing and strengthening the global church.
"We need to help build and strengthen the global church by providing them with a devotional series that does more than just “tickle” and chat, but dives into what the Christian faith is all about and provides a quality daily teaching of biblical truths. To encourage people to gain a far better understanding of the foundations of the faith than many other devotionals do currently."
Radio and Website
The initial batch of recordings, comprising the first 109 sessions, is now also available on the DPM website, providing audiences with an immersive experience beyond written devotionals.
