GIJAPA stands for:  God Is Just A Prayer Away

Ed Bousman started the radio broadcast ministry as a result of a sermon he preached one morning.  He told the congregation to go home and pray of something impossible.  For his prayer, Ed prayed for a nation-wide ministry

In September 1997, he started on Shortwave Radio--Bible Voice Europe, reaching all countries throughout Europe including Russia. In November 1997 he began Shortwave Radio Africa reaching over 140 million English-speaking people in three former British Colonies: Nigeria, Ghana and Cameroons.  Beginning June 1999 we started broadcasting in to India by the SUPER-POWER Radio Sri Lanka—the Giant of Asia. This shortwave broadcast reaches India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the local language is English reaching out to over one billion. Excess funds from the The Preaching Christ TV Ministry made it possible in April 2003 to begin broadcasting into Western Russia, Estonia, latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, Czech Republic and Bulgaria by means of the the powerful 100,000 watt transmitter--Bible Voice Russia.
