Title: "New" President and CEO for 3ABN
Post by: christined on July 24, 2015, 12:02:16 PM
Unbelievable!!! Just saw on FACEBOOK that Jim Gilley is retiring and the new President and CEO is Danny Shelton.  I guess that enough time has gone by that there are enough people out there that don't know the past.  Sad day!

3ABN Board Elects a New President

After seven and a half years of leadership, 3ABN president and CEO, Jim Gilley, felt it was time to retire, and on July 20, 2015, he informed 3ABN’s Administrative Committee of his decision.

Soon after, 3ABN’s board of directors met, and at that time, Jim submitted his letter of resignation. 3ABN’s board accepted his resignation with best wishes for his future.

Danny Shelton was nominated to serve as 3ABN’s president and CEO, and was elected by unanimous vote. Bruce Fjarli was also elected as the new chairman of the board.

All of us here appreciate the years of service given to 3ABN by Jim and Camille Gilley, but as Jim so eloquently said as he addressed the staff, “‘To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven,’ (Ecclesiastes 3:1) and it is time for me to step down as president.”

We hope you will join us in prayer for Jim and Camille as they move in a new direction in life.

Saw it on face book as well. 
Hard to believe they would elect him to represent Adventism to the Television world again.

But I guess he never really stepped down -- just stepped back a bit from the public eye for seven years.

3ABN's Form 990's report that 3ABN bought $250,000 from DLS Publishing from 2011 to 2013. Has anything changed?
