John Fischer The Catch

No, John. Jumping won’t solve anything. Even George Bailey couldn’t jump without saving somebody else. Poor George thought his life was a failure. He couldn’t see that all his failures and disappointments ended up in making someone else’s life better. 

In this episode, our angels talk about failure, and how it is a euphemism for success. And if you wonder about angels failing, well remember, Clarence is an Angel Second Class and Angels have to learn things too. 

Putting your focus on somebody else changes everything.

Now we ask you to put your focus as well on giving and how the Catch is getting everyone to rethink what it truly means to follow Christ. We have boots on the ground all over the world. We only have a few hours left and we have a long way to go. There’s too many of you waiting for someone else to give. Don’t miss out on the blessing!

This episode’s story is about a Nobody who desires to be a Somebody but is not recognized by a Somebody who should know better. Just because he’s speaking to a Nobody from another generation, that should not make any difference.

Relationships are all about having patience and being willing to learn. It’s the adventure of discovering someone different than you.

The Catch is all about developing relationships because relationships are eternal, and they are they way God has designed the gospel of welcome — grace turned outward — to go forward and spread out into the world. Relationships are everything.

Enjoy this video (#4) about Isaiah, a Millennial, and Jim, a Boomer, and what they have to gain through a relationship with each other.

And then we ask that you be generous with your year-end gift to the Catch Ministry. This is our last day! Time is almost up! Help us get ready for 2023! Join us as we prepare more boots on the ground for the relationships that will make a difference for eternity.

It’s official. Everybody is a nobody. No one can measure up to the standard of perfection required without Christ. Which means no one is anyone without grace. But Christ brings to us His great gift of Grace that upends God’s law, and suddenly, I am no longer NOBODY but SOMEBODY. I am alive!

Certainly within the Catch and its ministries, whenever the Grace of God is preached, people whose lives have come under duress based on both choice and events, gravitate to its message. And since we are an international community, the messengers of Grace become more numerous. Their message multiplies to finally, everyone, everywhere, causing thousands of people to escape a place of NOBODY to become a SOMEBODY in God’d kingdom.

The Catch Ministry will never turn its back on a NOBODY for any reason. We recognize it is God’s business to bring His people to Himself. We are the messengers of His greatest Gift, whether they are or are not part of the body of believers. We do not know whether they will or will not come to Christ, and we do not know when they will or will not. Thus, we treat everybody with the dignity and respect due an ongoing creation of God. Their final choices are not for anyone to judge, but to walk alongside treating everybody as a SOMEBODY.

So when you contribute to the Catch and its ministries, you are not just investing in a NOBODY but a SOMEBODY saved, just like yourself, by Grace.

As we travel this journey together for the sake of the Grace given to each of us and for the purpose of giving it to everyone, everywhere — turning multiples of people from NOBODIES to SOMEBODIES — let’s celebrate. We are alive!

Celebrate with us by making a year-end gift contribution … and might we dare suggest, stretching your gift and your capability to give. God meets us, not in our scarcity, but in our ability to believe.

As we close out 2022, we turn your attention to everyone’s favorite Christmas Eve movie, It’s A Wonderful Life, that heart-warming story of how one man found out his life counted.

We want you to know how much your life counts to us, to all the members of the Catch, and mostly to God above. For these last two days of the year, we will be recalling the charming story of George Bailey and the town of Bedford Falls in order to tell your story through the lives of a number of our Catch members.

Stay tuned to the Catch. You won’t want to miss one of our clever videos starring John & Marti Fischer and produced by Gunnar Simonsen, where, through the magical venue of radio drama theater, we will bring you our stories of how many of our Catch members are discovering it truly is a wonderful life.

Below are links to our YouTube video, and to our donation page where you can record your end-of-the-year gift to keep our important ministry going forward. And keep connected to the Catch. We will be posting a new video every few hours for your entertainment and edification.
