CrosstalkDC Gospel Outreach Report & Future Vision October 12, 2026October 12, 2026 - by vcyamerica - Leave a Comment Date: October 12, 2026 Host: Jim Schneider Guest : Dr. Alton Beal MP3 | Order According to the CDC, one death occurs in the United States every 10 seconds. By the time you finish listening to this 54-minute program, 324 people will have been ushered into eternity. Some recognize their present health condition reveals there is not much time left. For others, death comes by total surprise due to an auto collision, a heart attack, an aneurism, a freak accident or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. We just don’t know when our appointment with death will occur.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is what compels believers in Christ to share the Gospel. Such is the case for our guest on this edition of Crosstalk who became burdened for our nation’s capital, Washington D.C.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">This past January we first introduced you to the DC Gospel Outreach, an organized plan to blanket our nation’s capital this summer with the Gospel as tourists flooded into the city, marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">We asked you to pray…we asked you to go…we asked you to consider a gift and several responded in a variety of ways. Now all these months later we invited our guest back and he provided listeners with a very encouraging report on what happened with the DC Gospel Outreach. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">That guest is Dr. Alton Beal, the executive director of DC Gospel Outreach. He’s also an evangelist and president of Ambassador Baptist College which trains men and women for full-time Christian service.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>More Information</strong></p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">DC Gospel Outreach</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">104 – 1 N.
