Tw<> chi replica of Noah's ark they hod received for Christrnos-one that contained all sorts of toy animals. One of the children sug– gested: "We ought to do like Noah when he came out of the ark, and built an altar, to burn an animal as a sacrifice to
thank God." So off they .went to get sticks, paper, and stones; but as they were ready to begin their child-like ceremony, the other declared, "Oh wait, we can't burn these nice animals; let's go get some of those broken ones we've had all year and offer them." And so, there on the altar were little broken, useless animals. This simple illustration reminds me of the verse, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." Is it possible that we today, a:; Christians, may be guilty of giving to God what is left over, or our second best? In the matter of time, we usually give to Him the part of the day which is not token up with our own doily routines. Then in stew– ardship, there is a vast difference between a giver and one who sacrifices. Do your offerings to the Lord affect your budget, so that you hove felt a closer share in the ministry of God's Son? Do our very lives reveal sacrifice for Him?
As we begin this new year, many of us need to be challenged anew with the sacrificial 'Cross of Christ, to consider what we ore offering to God ·and hOw much we deny ourselves for His sake. For it could easily be that many of us ore giving Him only the broken and useless things of our lives. It is our prayer at BIOLA, that 1954 may be filled with real joy, power, and a "looking for that blessed hope and glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ."

Report lrom Dr. Talbot (DIRECT TO BROADCASTER READERS) " I have always known of the great island of New Guin'ea, but never·real– ized just how many thousands of people live and die here without hav– ing ever heard the n~me of Christ. My eyes ·have seen;· s 1 ights of _inde– scribable horror and sin, with heath– enish cannibalistic rites which date back hundreds of years. The Lord willing, I will show you several thou– sand feet of this latest missionary venture when I return. Next stop . .. Africa, where Mr. Oran Smith and I will report to you from . various parts of that dark continent. Now, Brethren, pray for me."
NEW FEATURES ADDED FOR 1954 In addition to a con tinu–
ance of those features which were incorporated into the broadcasts last year; 1954 prom– ises to bring more moments of en– joyable, inspiring listening for all. Miss Nancy Woolnough, whom you
see pictured on the right, will begin a series of "m iss:on3ry reports revealing interesting highlights from the time a cand idate is accepted to the moment he arrives on the field. Miss Woolnough, a BIOLA alumnus, is an able journalist, radio writer-producer, and a missionary herself. Another new feature will be the salute to different out stand ing fundamental churches · in cities where the Bible Institute Hour is heard, with local pastors reporting on current spiritual conditions and special musical numbers from the church choirs. .

For 1954 ------------------------ WHAT? * * * * A NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION I won't look back- God knows the fruitless efforts, The wasted hours, the sinning, the regrets; I leave them all with Him who blots the record, And mercifully forg1ves- and then forgets. I won't look forward, God sees all the future-- The road that, short or long, will lead me home : And He will face with me its every trial, And bear with me the burdens that may come. But I'll look up into the face of Jesus, For there my heart can rest, my fears are stilled, And there is joy and love and light for darkness, And perfe'ct peace, and every hope fulfilled. • * • * • BEGIN THE NEW YEAR RIGHT RECEIVE NEW LIFE: "If any man be in Christ he is a new creature: old things are passed away: behold, all things are become new" (Z Cor. 5:17). RECEIVE NEW JOY: "He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praises unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord" (Psa. 40:3). RECEIVE NEW HOPE: "Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ" (Tit. 2:13) . * * A NEW YEAR'S PROMISE Another year I enter, Its history unknown ; Oh, how my feet would tremble To tread its paths alone! But I have heard a whisper; I know I shall be blest; "My presence shall go with thee And I will give thee rest." What will the New Year bring me? I may not, must not know; Will it be love and rapture, Or loneliness and woe? Hush! Hush! I hear His whisper; I surely shall be blest; "My presence shall go with thee And I will give thee rest."
