Letter From Bryant

Bryant Wright Dear Friends,

In 2007, Right From The Heart celebrated 15 years of ministry, and what a year it has been. Even in the earliest days as I prayerfully envisioned the future of RFTH, I realize now that I couldn’t have begun to imagine the magnitude of what God had in mind. He has taken the original vision He planted in my heart – to take the message of Christ outside the walls of the church – and through the amazing advances and innovations in technology, God has literally given RFTH an international platform to reach and change lives. As you have seen in this brochure, we are moving forward, constantly looking for new and better ways to expand, partner, and use the ever-changing technologies to reach and disciple more people for Jesus Christ. In the coming months and years, we will continue to build on that mission as we plant seeds in the hearts and minds of a world that desperately needs a Savior. On behalf of the entire team of Right From The Heart, I thank you for partnering with us. Without your prayers and support, we simply could not continue what we believe God has called this ministry to do, reaching and discipling people for Christ. Yours in Christ,

Bryant Wright
Founder
Right From The Heart Ministries

TV and Radio

Looking back on another year of ministry at Right From The Heart, there have been many exciting and encouraging developments, allowing us to effectively reach more people for the Kingdom.

Domestically, we touch an average of 5.6 million people each month with our television spots, radio spots, and radio teaching programs.
We continue to air Bryant’s 30-minute teaching programs on Christian stations, growing listeners in their faith.
We are reaching more people, more often with our 60-second radio spots in Georgia and Florida.
We expanded our 60-second radio spots to include WCRV-AM, located in Memphis, Tennessee. The signal from this 50,000 watt station covers 8 states with the message of Christ.
New methods of producing our television spots are driving more of the viewing audience to our web site.
Our 15-second Gateway Ads running on wsbradio.com are producing significant results in getting more people engaged with the spiritual content on our web site.
To further increase the reach of the Right From The Heart messages, we have also added our television spots to such popular web sites as YouTube, GodTube, and iTunes.
We continue to reach millions of listeners in India, partnering with the Rajasthan Bible Institute.
We are producing radio spots in Polish and Spanish for introduction in 2008.

Domestically, we TOUCH an average of 5.6 MILLION PEOPLE each month!

Internet

We redesigned our site to make it more user friendly than ever.

There has been tremendous growth in our Internet reach this year, with visits to the web site more than doubling to over 13,000 per month.

The number of sermons downloaded from our web site has more than tripled, averaging more than 2000 per month.

We are developing an interactive Prayer Community, where visitors will experience the encouragement of knowing other people are praying for them, as well as the joy of ministering as they pray for others.

"I've never heard a pastor make God's Word so applicable to real life."

Daily Devotions

Daily devotions were made available to subscribers on the web site via email, RSS feeds, and most recently, as an application on Facebook.
We added a feature to our Daily Devotions, allowing our readers to see and make comments about the devotions. This has become a forum for discussing differing views on theological and social issues raised by the devotions.
The number of Daily Devotion subscribers is steadily increasing at a rate of 400-500 per month.
Devotions are being translated into Polish, Spanish, Hindi and German.

"These email devotions have quickly become the highlight of my day."

Worldwide Impact

We are tremendously excited about the potential for the ministry of Right From The Heart to reach and disciple people for God’s kingdom. In 2008, we expect to expand our presence, both domestically and internationally, by making the devotions we are currently translating into other languages available online. We are also expanding the foreign language radio markets to include not only India, but also Poland. As with our traditional radio spots, these will feature a socially relevant topic from a Biblical perspective and will include a tag that directs the listener to our web site, where they can find additional information, request prayer, find a church and/or subscribe to the Daily Devotions in their native language.

Financial Glance

Looking back on another year of ministry at Right From The Heart, there have been many exciting and encouraging developments, allowing us to effectively reach more people for the Kingdom. Overall, the impact of Right From The Heart continues to expand. As we develop our capabilities and take advantage of new technologies, our stewardship of the resources placed in our care is enhanced, thereby allowing more people throughout the world to be exposed to the truth of God’s Word. In 2007, the efficiency of television, radio, and the growth of the Internet presence allowed RFTH to touch people with the message of Jesus Christ an average of 5.6 million times per month at an average cost of 2 cents per touch!
