Dear Sir or Madam:

I love broadcasting, and I am interested in employment opportunities in the Omaha/Lincoln, Nebraska, area.

• I am an eager and reliable employee.
• I routinely arrive early for work each day so that I have ample time to prepare for my daily duties and can be ready to go to work at my scheduled start time.
• I am willing to work extra hours whenever needed.
• I work very well alone, but I am also able to easily work with others and follow instructions as given.
• I am creative and detail oriented.
• I am always on the look-out for better and more efficient ways of completing my duties.

• I love radio so much, that I have been volunteering as an on-air personality/producer for a public radio station in Lincoln for nearly five years. (I’d rather do radio for nothing, then not do it at all).

It is my sincere hope and desire that you will take a close and thoughtful look at me as a potential employee, and encourage you to review the attached resume. I thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Respectfully yours,



Bradley Scott Roenfeldt

Who has sinned? The Bible clearly states that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. And sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. (Romans 3:23 and James 1:15) The psalmist David reenforced this truth when he said, "There is none the doeth good, no not one. " (Psalm 53:3)

Because of one man's disobedience, many were made sinners. (Romans 5:19) Adam and Eve disobeyed God, and sin came into the world. As all sin must be punished, Adam and Eve were driven from their beautiful home, the Garden of Eden. All mankind everywhere must also suffer their other punishments, too, which included suffering, toil, and finally, death.

Yes, because of sin, death was introduced, But when Jesus Christ suffered death on the cross for our sins, He arose the third day, conquering death, hell and the grave. He arose as a victorious Christ! No more would Satan have dominion over death and the grave. Jesus suffered the atonement that we might have eternal life. He literally redeemed us from Satan by His supreme sacrifice.

The four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, each tell the thrilling story of the life of Jesus Christ for all men everywhere. Just who was this man who captivated so much attention as He walked the shores of Galilee, healing the sick, preaching in the villages, and teaching about a kingdom that was to come? How fortunate that we know Jesus was "God manifested in the flesh." (I Timothy 3:16) How wonderful to know the real reason for the remarkable power to do miracles.

In the Gospels you can read to find out how Jesus called His disciples and how they left all to follow Him. You can also realize that Jesus expects us to be led by His Spirit and follow His examples and teachings.

As you read, you will understand the real reason Jesus came to earth, which was to call sinners to repentance. (Mark 2:17) God expects us to share in His ministry by loving others and helping them to find reality in serving Jesus Christ. We can help others understand that the One True God can and will help them as they help others. This is a sharing ministry. There is no room for selfishness.

Do you understand the true nature of Jesus Christ? How did He do the healings and miracles that He did? Because God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself. (2 Corinthians 5:19) When Jesus was questioning His followers, asking, "Whom do men say that I, the Son of man am?" The answered in many ways, such as, "Some say you are John the Baptist; some Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets." But Jesus was much more specific. He said, "But whom do you say that I am?"

Simon Peter answered and said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." (Matthew 16:16) Jesus answered and said, "Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona; for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father, which is in heaven." (Matthew 16:17)

Then Jesus gave Peter the keys to the kingdom of heaven. From that time, He told His disciples of the things that were to happen to Him in the near future. Peter was later to use the keys or authority given him on that day by Jesus Christ as he preached on the Day of Pentecost and established the Church of the living God.

Who was Jesus Christ? What did Isaiah say about Him? Isaiah did not know God's real name, but he prophesied and said, "His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace." Isaiah also pointed out that His name would be called Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Jesus was really God, clothed in human flesh and dwelling among us. He who knew no sin found it necessary to share our grief and sorrow, so that He might pay the debt we owed for our sins. Only then, through sinless sacrifice, could we be brought back into perfect fellowship and harmony with God. All mortals had their sin debt "paid in full" once and for all by Jesus' death on the cross. This great and tragic event marked the end of an era in history. No more must we offer sacrifices once a year for out sins. Jesus paid the supreme sacrifice, and He did it willingly.
