Merry Christmas from Pastor Ed and Amy Boston

The plan for today was for Amy and I to record a Christmas video to our family, friends and followers. Unfortunately, my voice is totally gone making the video impossible.

Amy and I are in total awe of the support we receive in all of the different legs our ministry efforts.

To those who are part of The Father’s House, the home church that we founded that will begin year 4 in January – thank you for helping us keep a promise to God that if He allowed us to buy Amy’s childhood home that we would use it for His glory.

To our wonderful Old Union Church family, thank you for adopting us into your community, your families, and your church. We are truly blessed to be a part of something special that God has big plans for.

To our faithful Prayer and Share prayer warriors, you are amazing with prayers requests for over 700 situations having been shared and prayed for. What started as a prayer service about the pandemic in March of 2020, has morphed into many miracles, healings, and friendships with folks we would have never known.

To those who have ever been a part of the over 2000 episodes of The Ed Boston Podcast, you have helped this small town pastor do things that I would never have imagined. I’ve interviewed and prayed with a member of the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame: 2 winners, a runner-up, and finalist of America’s Got Talent; and a well known actress who most know from her role as an angel. I could name a long list of people you would recognize and proud to say that even though they may be rich or famous, they are just wonderful human beings like you and I. My friend Trevor, all the PR reps and contacts have been such a huge part of The Ed Boston podcast and I’m looking for big things to happen in 2024.

Please continue to pray for us!

Say Goodnight Amy! (Goodnight Amy!)

And for now, Go out and ……….

Do The Right Thing

Friend of the Podcast Update: Jingle Smells


Friends of the Podcast are folks who have been interviewed by Pastor Ed Boston and appeared on an episode of The Ed Boston Podcast. We like to keep track of our “Friends”. This press release includes both John Schneider and Victoria Jackson

Jingle Smells’ Dashing All the Way to One Day Early!!!

Due to overwhelming audience demand, Rumble has released the new family comedy Jingle Smells a day early. Their first feature film starring John Schneider, Eric Roberts and Ben Davies with executive producers Logan Sekulow and Sean Hannity, is the first non-documentary film to premiere exclusively on the Rumble platform. Originally set for release on Thanksgiving Day, the early release was announced today on The Sean Hannity Show.

This family-friendly holiday film’s all-star cast includes John Schneider (The Dukes of Hazzard, Smallville), Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, The Expendables), and Ben Davies (Courageous, War Room).

“It’s not often that someone comes up with a whole new angle on a Christmas movie, Jingle Smells is exactly that. A breath of cool, fresh air!” – John Schneider

The film features war vet Nick Gutman (Ben Davies) who is forced to take a job with his dad’s (John Schneider) quirky garbage men buddies, who are hired to conduct a wild secret mission — destroying perfectly good toys by Christmas Eve. These popular toys were pulled from the shelf after the film star (James Storm) they are based on is “canceled” for his patriotic views. Instead of destroying them, Nick takes on the secret identity Jingle Smells and becomes a Robin Hood of the Holidays.

Jingle Smells also stars Jim Breuer (Saturday Night Live), Victoria Jackson (Saturday Night Live), Dylan Postl (WWE), Brad Stine, James Storm, Jaclyn Stapp, Sean Hannity and features a special appearance by the Jay Sekulow Band and a special voice appearance by Gov. Mike Huckabee. 

“We’re breaking away from mainstream Hollywood and doing something totally different, Jingle Smells is a hilarious and heartwarming story filled with a great message and void of all the crazy agendas being presented by those other entertainment platforms. Jingle Smells is a movie that your entire family can enjoy together this Christmas season.” – Sean Hannity 

“We are thrilled to further expand our pay-per-view with the first feature movie launching on the platform, in partnership with Logan Sekulow and Sean Hannity, we are excited to see a significant turnout of viewers for this Christmas movie event.” – Rumble CEO & Chairman Chris Pavlovski

Jingle Smells hails from ACLJ Films in association with Laugh-O-Gram Studios, Logan Sekulow Originals and Keystone Films. Daniel Lusko directed from a script by Bart Scott and Logan Sekulow. 

Viewers can stream the movie for $19.99 at JingleSmells.movie.

WallBuilders Celebrates an Anniversary and a Birthday

Join with friend of the ministry/podcast David Barton, founder and president of Wallbuilders, to celebrate both the birthday of the US Army and Flag Day.

https://wallbuilders.com/

Today is the anniversary of two significant days in American history: the birthday of the US Army, and Flag Day!

The Army was created by the Continental Congress on June 14, 1775. George Washington was elected Commander-in-Chief the next day and issued orders for the military, including one declaring: The blessings and protection of Heaven are at all times necessary…The General hopes and trusts that every officer and man will endeavor [to] live and act as becomes a Christian Soldier defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country.

The Army has continuously been recognized throughout American history. Such as by Frederick Douglass who reminded the nation: We must never forget that the loyal soldiers who rest beneath this sod flung themselves between the nation and the nation destroyers. [I]f the Star-Spangled Banner floats only over free American citizens in every quarter of the land…we are indebted to the unselfish devotion of the noble army who rest in these honored graves all around us.

General George Marshall also spoke about the United States’ mission during WWII:We are determined that before the sun sets on this terrible struggle, our flag will be recognized throughout the world as a symbol of freedom on the one hand and of overwhelming force on the other.

Flag Day commemorates June 14, 1777 when the Continental Congress passed a resolution establishing the look of the first national flag. The first Flag Day celebration occurred in 1885 as a school celebration in Wisconsin. The idea of honoring our flag spread across the country and President Woodrow Wilson eventually issued a 1916 presidential proclamation recognizing Flag Day. Since then, generations have continued to celebrate the American flag.

Today, let’s celebrate the American Army and all our military who so ably defend our flag, our God-given freedoms, and God-blessed nation!

Billy Graham Preaches About The Cross and Gives The Invitation That Led Millions To Christ

Billy Graham gave the invitation at the end of this video to millions around the world, and over 3.2 million people came to know Jesus during the crusades that Reverend Graham did all over the world.

I would be blessed to know if you made your decision to ask Christ into your life after watching this. Shoot me an email at ed@edbostonministries.com and let me know so that I can be praying for you!

Special Good Friday Prayer Service

Each night since March 18th (minus 1 night), Ed Boston Ministries has hosted an online Prayer Service in response to the National Emergency happening in the United States and around the world.

With this being Holy Week, we thought we would have a special Prayer Service on Good Friday at 7 pm eastern on the ministry Facebook page. The link there is www.facebook.com/edbostonministries. This service will be different than what we have been doing each night, so why not join us and help us observe Good Friday!
