The program from the heart to the heart 3 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,800 S1: for the heart. I need your help today. A lot 4 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,880 S1: of what we do at the Radio Backyard fence is 5 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:20,239 S1: just kind of process life together. And for the last 6 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,320 S1: 25 years, I've been processing an event that happened on 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,920 S1: this day, and I want to hear from you about 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,800 S1: how you are observing, how you're looking at this date, 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,280 S1: dealing with all the feelings. I'll be honest with you, frankly, 10 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,120 S1: I haven't been doing too well with how to approach 11 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,479 S1: this day. So help me out. Your response might be 12 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,520 S1: just what somebody else needs to hear, and I might 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,080 S1: be that somebody. Let me thank our team. Ryan McConaughey 14 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,080 S1: doing all things technical. Trish is our producer. Lisa is 15 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,320 S1: in the engineer chair today. Josh will be answering your calls. 16 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,840 S1: And since it's Friday. That's right. It's time for the 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,880 S1: fabulous Fabry Friday side. Here's what it does. One, we 18 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,700 S1: oxygenate your blood. Two, we get your endorphins going? Three. 19 00:01:00,740 --> 00:01:05,020 S1: We raise your serotonin level. Four. We promote lymphatic drainage 20 00:01:05,020 --> 00:01:08,180 S1: and five, we stimulate your parasympathetic system. That's why we 21 00:01:08,180 --> 00:01:11,380 S1: call it the five lung languages. We also stimulate your 22 00:01:11,420 --> 00:01:14,300 S1: vagus nerve. We help you release acetylcholine. And don't you 23 00:01:14,340 --> 00:01:18,260 S1: dare forget what it does to cortisol dissipation. Taking four 24 00:01:18,260 --> 00:01:21,020 S1: seconds of air through your nose right now. Hold it 25 00:01:21,020 --> 00:01:23,980 S1: for seconds. And then as you release that air through 26 00:01:24,020 --> 00:01:26,339 S1: your mouth, push on the left side of your rib 27 00:01:26,340 --> 00:01:29,100 S1: cage to get rid of all that bad carbon dioxide. 28 00:01:29,459 --> 00:01:32,700 S1: Here's one thing I realized in preparation for today. On 29 00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:35,899 S1: a day like this, you need a sigh more than ever. 30 00:01:36,220 --> 00:01:38,260 S1: And I believe one of the positive things we can 31 00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:42,059 S1: do in response to trauma and traumatic events that happen 32 00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:45,900 S1: in small or large scales, is to move forward, live 33 00:01:45,900 --> 00:01:48,420 S1: fully from the heart. It's to allow the pain and 34 00:01:48,420 --> 00:01:51,820 S1: the hard memories to propel us forward instead of paralyzing us, 35 00:01:51,820 --> 00:01:54,300 S1: holding us back. Do not let the enemy steal your 36 00:01:54,340 --> 00:01:58,140 S1: joy or your sigh today, because we need that delight, 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,680 S1: that ability to experience truth and beauty while we remember. Therefore, 38 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,800 S1: take as many fabulous Fabry Friday sighs as you need today. 39 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,680 S1: On September 11th. So I have two questions for you today, 40 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,720 S1: and maybe a third. The two questions you can answer. 41 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,680 S1: One of them. You can answer both of them if 42 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,359 S1: you'd like. Maybe you'll answer the third. How are you 43 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:27,200 S1: observing the 25th anniversary of nine over 11? Meaning what 44 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:32,239 S1: is it you're doing? Uh, and maybe intentionally should be 45 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,200 S1: added in there. But where are you going? Are you 46 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,520 S1: going to join with others today or over the weekend? 47 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,200 S1: Are you going fishing with your grandkids because you feel 48 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,079 S1: like that would be something really positive to do? Grandparents 49 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,000 S1: day is this Sunday, by the way, don't forget. Maybe 50 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,080 S1: you're slowing down today and you're just remembering some things 51 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,839 S1: you've forgotten, or you just need kind of a quiet place. 52 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,109 S1: Your observance, your answer to that question, might really help 53 00:02:59,110 --> 00:03:01,869 S1: somebody else today who kind of feels alone with how 54 00:03:01,870 --> 00:03:08,990 S1: they feel. So call me just you and me today. (877) 548-3675. 55 00:03:09,830 --> 00:03:13,230 S1: How is this 900 1125 years down the road? How 56 00:03:13,230 --> 00:03:16,710 S1: is it hitting you? How are you observing it? And 57 00:03:16,710 --> 00:03:19,990 S1: it doesn't have to be a profound thing. In fact, 58 00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:23,870 S1: sometimes the most profound things seem like they're not. So 59 00:03:23,870 --> 00:03:30,110 S1: don't hold back. (877) 548-3675. So that's the first question. How 60 00:03:30,150 --> 00:03:34,550 S1: are you observing? Second question is, is there a verse? 61 00:03:34,550 --> 00:03:37,630 S1: Is there a psalm is and people have responded to 62 00:03:37,630 --> 00:03:40,670 S1: this on Facebook. Is there a hymn? Is there a 63 00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:45,830 S1: song that captures your heart on this day? Has something 64 00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:49,270 S1: a poet said given you encouragement? I saw a quote 65 00:03:49,870 --> 00:03:53,750 S1: from Corrie ten boom a little earlier. Has something in 66 00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:57,770 S1: God's Word really hit you more deeply because of what 67 00:03:57,770 --> 00:04:01,210 S1: we're going through today. Same number. Let's talk about it 68 00:04:01,210 --> 00:04:08,690 S1: at the radio backyard fence (877) 548-3675. And the third question 69 00:04:08,690 --> 00:04:13,970 S1: is it's more I'm projecting on you the more. The 70 00:04:13,970 --> 00:04:17,010 S1: third question is, are you struggling with either of those 71 00:04:17,050 --> 00:04:19,970 S1: first two questions? Are you struggling with? It's like I'm 72 00:04:19,970 --> 00:04:23,169 S1: not observing. I've tried to stay away from the internet. 73 00:04:23,170 --> 00:04:29,450 S1: I can't I just can't anybody, anybody wave a hand 74 00:04:29,450 --> 00:04:33,969 S1: at me? Are you struggling in some way with even 75 00:04:33,970 --> 00:04:39,890 S1: processing what you're going through 25 years later? Phone lines 76 00:04:39,890 --> 00:04:45,610 S1: open for you. (877) 548-3675. Now, I told you it's just 77 00:04:45,610 --> 00:04:47,529 S1: you and me, but I want I want you to 78 00:04:47,529 --> 00:04:51,130 S1: hear from my friend Lori. Lori Campbell Nunez. If you 79 00:04:51,170 --> 00:04:53,289 S1: are a back fence partner or a friend of the program, 80 00:04:53,290 --> 00:04:56,070 S1: you have benefited from the behind the scenes work of 81 00:04:56,070 --> 00:04:59,429 S1: Lori and Little Bird told me that she was on 82 00:04:59,430 --> 00:05:02,110 S1: the road, so I caught up with her yesterday to 83 00:05:02,150 --> 00:05:06,229 S1: find out her answer to this question. How she's. She 84 00:05:06,230 --> 00:05:09,870 S1: is observing nine over 11 in a unique way. 85 00:05:10,589 --> 00:05:13,910 S2: Yes, I am a part of a larger event that's 86 00:05:13,910 --> 00:05:17,470 S2: happening in the lower Michigan area, where we are closing 87 00:05:17,470 --> 00:05:21,750 S2: out the day of different events that are happening of 88 00:05:21,790 --> 00:05:24,790 S2: praise and worship and prayer walks and all that kind 89 00:05:24,790 --> 00:05:27,190 S2: of thing with various speakers. But we're doing a concert 90 00:05:27,190 --> 00:05:30,870 S2: which is really more of a worship service to kind 91 00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:34,950 S2: of honor God's faithfulness through all of, you know, the, 92 00:05:34,950 --> 00:05:38,029 S2: the trauma and the grief and the fear that people, 93 00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:41,229 S2: you know, have had through the event. But you know, 94 00:05:41,589 --> 00:05:45,390 S2: it even to now in our culture, it's a crazy time. 95 00:05:45,750 --> 00:05:48,390 S2: But just to kind of look back and, and praise 96 00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:50,950 S2: him and just spend the time sharing the hope of 97 00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:55,089 S2: Christ and sharing the love to the community that only 98 00:05:55,130 --> 00:05:57,370 S2: God can give us to. You know, as we reach 99 00:05:57,370 --> 00:06:00,370 S2: out to people who may not know the Lord, that 100 00:06:00,370 --> 00:06:04,330 S2: they may still be harboring those hurts. And, and, uh, 101 00:06:04,370 --> 00:06:06,890 S2: from the event where their hearts are heavy that we 102 00:06:06,890 --> 00:06:11,089 S2: want to just provide that, that hope that only, you know, 103 00:06:11,130 --> 00:06:15,010 S2: in Christ. So that's, it's a great, hopefully will be 104 00:06:15,010 --> 00:06:18,170 S2: a great time of celebration of just that, that hope 105 00:06:18,170 --> 00:06:19,330 S2: that we have in Christ. 106 00:06:19,650 --> 00:06:23,650 S1: Isn't it interesting what music can do? And you mentioned 107 00:06:23,690 --> 00:06:26,850 S1: the pain and the trauma and the memories and all that. 108 00:06:26,850 --> 00:06:30,730 S1: Isn't it interesting what what music can do inside the 109 00:06:30,730 --> 00:06:31,650 S1: human heart? 110 00:06:32,210 --> 00:06:35,969 S2: Yeah, absolutely. I mean, you know, me, I'm, I'm an introvert. 111 00:06:35,970 --> 00:06:39,369 S2: And so through music, it's, it's my way that God 112 00:06:39,370 --> 00:06:42,650 S2: can use the gift that I have, the little gift 113 00:06:42,650 --> 00:06:47,130 S2: that I have to offer that, um, an uplifting hymn 114 00:06:47,130 --> 00:06:49,610 S2: or an anthem that focuses on the majesty of the 115 00:06:49,610 --> 00:06:52,600 S2: Lord that really can touch somebody's heart in a way 116 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,520 S2: that I could never use words. I'm not, you know, 117 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,680 S2: go up to somebody and, hey, you know, where's your walk? 118 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,400 S2: And it's, it's harder for me in, in casual conversation, 119 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,440 S2: but through music, it's, it's so much easier to step 120 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,760 S2: out in that through him. Obviously nothing of my own 121 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,120 S2: because I'm a, I'm, you know, I'll stay in the 122 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,160 S2: back shadows of the, the back office, you know. But yes, 123 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,240 S2: through music it's it's so moving. It's so easier, much easier. 124 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,000 S1: Is there a song that you're going to be singing? 125 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,800 S1: Because this is this is an event in Michigan. Where 126 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,119 S1: in Michigan, where is it? 127 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,720 S2: Uh, it's outside of Brighton. Um, so it's a lower, 128 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,640 S2: lower Michigan. So the churches in the area and different 129 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,520 S2: people I've, I was belong, I belong to a church, um, 130 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,000 S2: in Brighton when I was here taking care of my dad. 131 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,360 S2: And so they called and said, hey, you remember that 132 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,920 S2: duet you did? What do you, what are you doing 133 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,740 S2: around 911? So, we'll be doing that duet that we 134 00:07:52,740 --> 00:07:56,260 S2: used to sing together called Threshold of Glory. And it's 135 00:07:56,260 --> 00:08:00,500 S2: a it really is a powerful, moving piece that kind 136 00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:04,540 S2: of brings you to God's throne. And it's, you know, 137 00:08:04,580 --> 00:08:06,540 S2: it's focused on the majesty of the Lord and the 138 00:08:06,540 --> 00:08:10,340 S2: power of faith in that face of adversity and that we, 139 00:08:10,940 --> 00:08:14,020 S2: you know, through trials, we have to remember that he 140 00:08:14,020 --> 00:08:17,260 S2: is faithful. He's the one that provides that, you know, 141 00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:21,300 S2: that love and care and protection. And so we're just, 142 00:08:21,340 --> 00:08:25,540 S2: it's a, it's a cool anthem in my mind. But, uh, 143 00:08:25,540 --> 00:08:27,180 S2: so yeah, they asked me to come back and sing 144 00:08:27,180 --> 00:08:29,660 S2: the duet with a friend of mine. And so part 145 00:08:29,660 --> 00:08:32,780 S2: of the whole concert we're going to, you know, it 146 00:08:32,780 --> 00:08:35,100 S2: is well with my soul and all these different, you know, 147 00:08:35,140 --> 00:08:39,100 S2: amazing Grace and different anthems closing out with the The 148 00:08:39,140 --> 00:08:43,260 S2: Battle hymn. But it's, um, it's not an agenda. There's 149 00:08:43,260 --> 00:08:46,459 S2: no politics. We're not focusing on any of that. It's not, 150 00:08:46,820 --> 00:08:50,680 S2: it's all about worshiping the Lord and, and appointing people 151 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,480 S2: to to that hope in him. 152 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,440 S1: And really at the at the bottom of all of 153 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,720 S1: that is, is a hope of healing, a hope of 154 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,560 S1: being able to, to move forward and really hang on 155 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,520 S1: to him in the middle of thinking of this, you know, 156 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,400 S1: 25 years ago, it's been a long time, but it's 157 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:10,520 S1: still there, isn't it? 158 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,920 S2: Yeah. I think people, you know, they get wrapped up, 159 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,920 S2: you know, we all do the heaviness of the world. 160 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,400 S2: And if you look at the news and you're, you know, 161 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,280 S2: you're worried about this or that and your family, and 162 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:27,080 S2: we can get so sidetracked. So that's, you know, really 163 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,560 S2: helps just regroup and say, remember, remember, the Lord was 164 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,160 S2: with us. Remember the people that came after the event 165 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,680 S2: and said, you know, hey, what is why are you 166 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,760 S2: why can you handle this? This is, you know, a 167 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,000 S2: huge trauma in our culture and our, in our society 168 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,480 S2: and say, but the Lord is worthy.

Marie, 202 00:11:59,150 --> 00:12:00,510 S1: tell me why you called today. 203 00:12:02,590 --> 00:12:06,829 S3: Well, the experience that I went out, um, the Friday 204 00:12:06,830 --> 00:12:10,709 S3: before and my 25 year old daughter followed me. I 205 00:12:10,710 --> 00:12:14,390 S3: went out to see a friend, um, an actor that I, I, 206 00:12:14,710 --> 00:12:18,350 S3: I knew and she decided last minute to come out, 207 00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:21,110 S3: but she couldn't come out till Saturday. And we went up, 208 00:12:21,110 --> 00:12:25,589 S3: we saw the friend, um, and uh, had fun. We 209 00:12:25,590 --> 00:12:27,950 S3: were supposed to leave Wednesday. In fact, she was going 210 00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:32,829 S3: in a separate plane back, but um, Wednesday we were, 211 00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:35,630 S3: you know, Tuesday morning we got up trying to enjoy 212 00:12:35,630 --> 00:12:39,270 S3: the last day in California. And that's when the, the, 213 00:12:39,590 --> 00:12:42,070 S3: the towers came down and we were, we were stuck 214 00:12:42,390 --> 00:12:45,730 S3: in the airport for the rest of the week, but 215 00:12:46,210 --> 00:12:49,410 S3: I just thought the, uh, the camaraderie between the people, 216 00:12:49,410 --> 00:12:52,290 S3: even out in California, I was like, well, we're from 217 00:12:52,330 --> 00:12:55,770 S3: we were from Jersey at the time. And they said, well, 218 00:12:55,809 --> 00:12:59,130 S3: New York's in our backyard. We're sorry to signs went 219 00:12:59,130 --> 00:13:03,929 S3: up on people's cars how, you know, put America first. And, 220 00:13:03,970 --> 00:13:06,929 S3: you know, it's just, you know, we're all together. And 221 00:13:07,170 --> 00:13:10,970 S3: the camaraderie, it was an experience. And even being stuck 222 00:13:10,970 --> 00:13:13,530 S3: in the airport for a few days, you know, if 223 00:13:13,530 --> 00:13:15,850 S3: we went and grabbed some lunch, we'd sit with people 224 00:13:15,850 --> 00:13:17,810 S3: we didn't know, and we'd sit there talking about, where 225 00:13:17,809 --> 00:13:20,490 S3: were you going? Where were you going? Where were you 226 00:13:20,490 --> 00:13:23,810 S3: supposed to end up? You know? And we made friends 227 00:13:23,850 --> 00:13:30,130 S3: all across the country. Um, but, uh, that part, you know, the, the, 228 00:13:30,130 --> 00:13:32,569 S3: the sad day that it was, it was an experience 229 00:13:32,570 --> 00:13:35,850 S3: to be out in California and just see the camaraderie 230 00:13:36,050 --> 00:13:38,290 S3: with the people out there. Yeah. 231 00:13:38,770 --> 00:13:41,490 S1: It, it puts us all in the same boat, didn't it? 232 00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:46,430 S3: Yeah, yeah it did. And they felt so strongly that way. 233 00:13:47,030 --> 00:13:49,550 S3: I wish they did today. But, uh. 234 00:13:49,550 --> 00:13:52,550 S1: Okay, you put your finger on the struggle, then, you know, 235 00:13:52,590 --> 00:13:55,550 S1: what are you struggling with? It's like we're never forget. 236 00:13:55,550 --> 00:13:59,069 S1: And all the things that we said and singing God 237 00:13:59,070 --> 00:14:01,709 S1: Bless America on the Capitol steps. And, you know, we're 238 00:14:01,710 --> 00:14:03,750 S1: going to be united here. Even if we disagree, we're 239 00:14:03,750 --> 00:14:05,870 S1: going to be united. It's like, well, I don't know. 240 00:14:06,190 --> 00:14:10,870 S1: I don't know, 25 years down the road, uh, that, that, 241 00:14:11,030 --> 00:14:13,910 S1: that we kept up with that. And I don't know 242 00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:17,910 S1: that I think that's part of what I'm struggling with 243 00:14:17,950 --> 00:14:23,270 S1: is the, the false idol that we have of our 244 00:14:23,270 --> 00:14:27,190 S1: own ability to get along together with the people that 245 00:14:27,190 --> 00:14:27,910 S1: we don't. 246 00:14:28,270 --> 00:14:29,190 S3: And yeah. 247 00:14:29,470 --> 00:14:34,510 S1: And looking at the reality of, okay, we have differences 248 00:14:34,510 --> 00:14:38,070 S1: of opinion, we have differences of opinion about all, everything, 249 00:14:38,110 --> 00:14:42,620 S1: you know, uh, and, and so where does that leave me? 250 00:14:42,660 --> 00:14:46,060 S1: And what? How do I observe this today? So 25 251 00:14:46,100 --> 00:14:50,060 S1: years later, you remember the unity, right? 252 00:14:51,020 --> 00:14:56,980 S3: Yeah. Yeah, yeah. So it was something, um, you know, 253 00:14:57,020 --> 00:14:59,660 S3: we made friends across the country just from that. We 254 00:14:59,660 --> 00:15:02,540 S3: felt like we've known each other for, for years. There 255 00:15:02,540 --> 00:15:04,140 S3: was no stranger that day. 256 00:15:04,340 --> 00:15:07,620 S1: Yes, yes. And that was real. And here's what I 257 00:15:07,620 --> 00:15:10,100 S1: want to say to you. And thank you for your call. 258 00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:15,500 S1: That was real. That was a real in space and time, uh, 259 00:15:15,500 --> 00:15:19,580 S1: occurrence of, you know, what you experience was reality. Now, 260 00:15:19,620 --> 00:15:25,900 S1: 25 years later, we're, we're experiencing reality. And it's in 261 00:15:25,900 --> 00:15:29,060 S1: some ways, it's really, really hard to, to get to 262 00:15:29,100 --> 00:15:33,580 S1: where we are today and ask those questions. But, but why? Um, 263 00:15:33,620 --> 00:15:35,820 S1: so I'm going to leave it right there with Marie 264 00:15:35,820 --> 00:15:38,500 S1: and go to Anna in Tennessee. Anna, tell me why 265 00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:39,420 S1: you called today. 266 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:45,320 S4: Well, I called today because I heard Mike Kellogg reading 267 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,240 S4: meet Me in the stairwell this morning as I was 268 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:52,119 S4: listening to Moody. Um, and I was touched so deeply 269 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,720 S4: by some of the lines of that poem, including, you know, 270 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,200 S4: I studied your hand when you called your wife to 271 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,400 S4: say you wouldn't be coming home. I was with the 272 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:08,600 S4: priest who was ministering to so many of you. Um, 273 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,320 S4: as you took your last breath. And, but at the 274 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,360 S4: end of the poem really resonated so much with me. Um, 275 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,160 S4: and I don't remember the words entirely, but my takeaway 276 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,720 S4: was that if, if you were not in one of 277 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,920 S4: those buildings, on those days, on that day, if you 278 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,000 S4: were not on one of the planes that went down 279 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:36,720 S4: in Pennsylvania, um, then remember that you are here for 280 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:42,220 S4: a purpose and live intentionally. And that's my takeaway. 281 00:16:42,580 --> 00:16:47,340 S1: Yes. So what are you doing today to live intentionally 282 00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:49,620 S1: other than calling me? Because you did a good thing 283 00:16:49,620 --> 00:16:52,580 S1: right there. You know, to respond to that. And this is, 284 00:16:52,620 --> 00:16:54,620 S1: you know, it's a very good thing. You know, you're 285 00:16:54,620 --> 00:16:57,380 S1: expressing your heart. You're saying that you heard and you 286 00:16:57,380 --> 00:16:59,820 S1: mentioned a friend of mine, Mike Kellogg, you know, who 287 00:16:59,820 --> 00:17:03,980 S1: passed away a few years ago. And I miss him dearly. Yeah. Um, 288 00:17:04,100 --> 00:17:07,380 S1: you know, and his work that informs, you know, what 289 00:17:07,380 --> 00:17:10,379 S1: we do here at Moody Radio. So what are you 290 00:17:10,380 --> 00:17:11,980 S1: doing other than calling me? 291 00:17:13,180 --> 00:17:17,740 S4: Uh, I took a few moments to call some people 292 00:17:17,740 --> 00:17:20,859 S4: very dear to me, to remind them that God has 293 00:17:20,859 --> 00:17:24,420 S4: a purpose for their lives. Um, and some of them 294 00:17:24,420 --> 00:17:28,580 S4: responded that, wow, why did you call today? I needed 295 00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:33,780 S4: to hear that. Um, so I loved that. And then, um, 296 00:17:33,780 --> 00:17:36,500 S4: I met with my small prayer group and we of 297 00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:40,080 S4: course Prayed for all of the people and everyone that's 298 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,880 S4: been affected by nine over 11. So that's, that's what 299 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:44,919 S4: we've done today. 300 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,359 S1: That's fantastic. It's very intentional. And that you took the 301 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,920 S1: and I heard your your voice break there a little bit. 302 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,840 S1: You know, as you're talking about the chaplain, I remember that, 303 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,040 S1: you know, that image of that chaplain being carried, you know, 304 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:06,240 S1: and those who ran toward the trouble rather than running away. Um, so, Anna, 305 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,359 S1: thanks for sharing your heart today. That's exactly what I 306 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:16,280 S1: wanted to hear. So here's the number (877) 548-3675. Isn't it 307 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,080 S1: interesting how, uh, Laurie was talking about music and how 308 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,720 S1: music can touch the heart in ways and then stories 309 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,920 S1: and poems, and Trisha tells me that poem that she 310 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,280 S1: referenced was by Stacie Randall. Meet me in the stairwell. 311 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,150 S1: That how how what somebody else has said or written 312 00:18:38,830 --> 00:18:41,590 S1: can touch us in a, in a way that then 313 00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:44,870 S1: motivates us. And I think that's the struggle that I 314 00:18:44,869 --> 00:18:48,710 S1: have is the. On that day I wasn't doing radio, 315 00:18:48,750 --> 00:18:54,110 S1: I wasn't I wasn't actively doing anything on the air, um, 316 00:18:54,710 --> 00:19:01,190 S1: at that point, but I felt the paralysis that everybody 317 00:19:01,190 --> 00:19:07,150 S1: else felt. It's like I, I, and I, 25 years later, 318 00:19:07,150 --> 00:19:11,750 S1: I feel the same thing. I feel the same thing inside. 319 00:19:12,470 --> 00:19:15,869 S1: And I, and I understand it. I understand the feeling. 320 00:19:16,430 --> 00:19:18,950 S1: But at the same time, I want to tell myself 321 00:19:19,350 --> 00:19:22,470 S1: and I will tell you. And just like Anna did, 322 00:19:22,510 --> 00:19:26,030 S1: there's a purpose here. If you've been left here. Or 323 00:19:26,030 --> 00:19:29,590 S1: maybe you were born after nine over 11 and you 324 00:19:29,590 --> 00:19:32,430 S1: have no idea, you just hear our hearing people talk 325 00:19:32,430 --> 00:19:37,130 S1: about it. There is a purpose for you to be here. 326 00:19:37,490 --> 00:19:40,050 S1: And maybe it is as simple as what I said 327 00:19:40,050 --> 00:19:43,609 S1: just a little bit ago. Grandparents day on Sunday. Uh, 328 00:19:43,609 --> 00:19:46,810 S1: not that you needed a a holiday, you know, a 329 00:19:46,810 --> 00:19:50,250 S1: day to remember you, uh, to get out there and 330 00:19:50,250 --> 00:19:54,609 S1: be a grandparent and to, to do what those who 331 00:19:54,609 --> 00:19:59,250 S1: now can't embrace for whatever, if they were there or 332 00:19:59,250 --> 00:20:02,090 S1: if they got sick after the towers came down, to 333 00:20:02,130 --> 00:20:05,409 S1: be able to do that and to live fully from 334 00:20:05,410 --> 00:20:11,010 S1: the heart rather than to hold back, to hold back 335 00:20:11,050 --> 00:20:14,570 S1: the smile, to hold back the laughter, to hold back 336 00:20:14,609 --> 00:20:19,370 S1: a Friday sigh. I thought, no, we should do somber music. 337 00:20:19,369 --> 00:20:25,929 S1: This is a somber time. We can't. He said. No, no. Live. Um, 338 00:20:26,650 --> 00:20:30,010 S1: Noel is in Florida.

I'm a 341 00:20:37,750 --> 00:20:40,550 S5: survivor at the Pentagon. I got blown back when the 342 00:20:40,550 --> 00:20:45,190 S5: aircraft hit the building. I was outside and suffered quite 343 00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:50,510 S5: a few injuries. And if it hadn't been for for 344 00:20:50,510 --> 00:20:56,030 S5: God and knowing Christ and and actually having some folks 345 00:20:56,030 --> 00:20:58,990 S5: that are praying with me and helping me throughout these years, 346 00:20:58,990 --> 00:21:01,830 S5: I don't think I would have been here today. I 347 00:21:01,869 --> 00:21:05,070 S5: honestly don't think I would have been here today. I, um, 348 00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:09,750 S5: shortly after that, I almost tried to take my life 349 00:21:09,950 --> 00:21:12,510 S5: a couple of times. I just it was hard. It 350 00:21:12,510 --> 00:21:16,430 S5: was hard during that time. I lost quite a few 351 00:21:16,430 --> 00:21:21,270 S5: friends on, on that day at the Pentagon. Military members 352 00:21:21,270 --> 00:21:26,950 S5: like me. So it it's a very different, unique day 353 00:21:26,950 --> 00:21:28,470 S5: for me. And this is the first time that I've 354 00:21:28,510 --> 00:21:33,370 S5: actually been out and about, uh, doing anything on this day. 355 00:21:33,410 --> 00:21:37,250 S5: I've usually been sheltered in my house and didn't want 356 00:21:37,250 --> 00:21:39,210 S5: to be bothered with anybody, to be honest with you. 357 00:21:39,250 --> 00:21:40,250 S6: Yes, yes. 358 00:21:40,730 --> 00:21:45,050 S1: Because it is a very intensely personal time for you 359 00:21:45,050 --> 00:21:48,010 S1: as as you're thinking about this and the whole the 360 00:21:48,010 --> 00:21:52,050 S1: whole paralysis thing, I would imagine that that that you 361 00:21:52,090 --> 00:21:54,530 S1: felt that way for a long time of just, I 362 00:21:54,570 --> 00:21:56,330 S1: don't know that I can do anything. 363 00:21:57,410 --> 00:22:01,929 S5: I at all times and I, I still feel and 364 00:22:01,970 --> 00:22:06,530 S5: basically in that way because, um, there are those times when, uh, 365 00:22:06,810 --> 00:22:11,290 S5: you know, I get, uh, thinking about my friends, uh, 366 00:22:11,450 --> 00:22:15,130 S5: the pilot that was on that, uh, that lost his 367 00:22:15,130 --> 00:22:18,050 S5: life that day that was crashed into the Pentagon two 368 00:22:18,050 --> 00:22:22,450 S5: weeks before I helped bury his father at Arlington Cemetery. 369 00:22:23,530 --> 00:22:26,570 S5: And then two weeks later, I'm pulling his body out 370 00:22:26,570 --> 00:22:30,410 S5: of the rubble.

And then, as you said, 382 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,120 S1: you lost a lot of friends there. And I'd say 383 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,120 S1: the same thing though, to you that Anna said that 384 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,720 S1: that she thought of would listen to that poem.

I mean, 413 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:51,480 S1: you're getting just a thumbnail sketch of his life of 414 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,960 S1: the the what he's from from D.C. to the Pentagon 415 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,760 S1: all the way down to Florida and how he wanted 416 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,960 S1: to stay sequestered in his house on this day. Didn't 417 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,919 S1: want to move around and look what he did.

And Stephanie responded immediately and said, I'm sorry 434 00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:23,940 S1: that the birth, the wonderful birth of your daughter was 435 00:26:23,940 --> 00:26:26,530 S1: marred by such a tragedy, but I pray you can 436 00:26:26,570 --> 00:26:29,169 S1: both look at it as a message that in the 437 00:26:29,170 --> 00:26:36,530 S1: midst of unimaginable loss, beautiful things can still happen. Uh, 438 00:26:36,570 --> 00:26:40,530 S1: Cheney says, it reminds I'm reminding my students about the 439 00:26:40,530 --> 00:26:44,490 S1: significance of the day and sharing my personal experience. I 440 00:26:44,490 --> 00:26:47,730 S1: worked in Washington, D.C., not far from the white House. 441 00:26:49,770 --> 00:26:54,010 S1: It's my 50th wedding anniversary. Mary says on nine over 11, 442 00:26:54,490 --> 00:26:57,010 S1: I will always remember the tragic events of that day 443 00:26:57,010 --> 00:27:01,850 S1: and pray we are kept from a repeat. Priscilla, remembering 444 00:27:01,850 --> 00:27:05,290 S1: my cousin who was in the South Tower expecting a 445 00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:11,890 S1: child watching some of the New York City remembrances. Her 446 00:27:11,890 --> 00:27:19,209 S1: cousin passed away. And that's the struggle. And also how they. 447 00:27:19,490 --> 00:27:22,730 S1: Each of those people are dealing with this, especially the 448 00:27:22,730 --> 00:27:28,510 S1: teacher who's saying, here's what really happened. Here's here's my 449 00:27:28,510 --> 00:27:32,630 S1: perspective of that. Sharon is in Indiana. Sharon, why did 450 00:27:32,630 --> 00:27:33,430 S1: you call today? 451 00:27:34,390 --> 00:27:39,150 S7: Well, um, you were asking about what you do to, uh, 452 00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:43,190 S7: in remembrance of it. And, uh, we had a Christian 453 00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:47,750 S7: school at the time, and, um, it really affected us 454 00:27:47,790 --> 00:27:49,830 S7: a whole because we did a lot of American history 455 00:27:49,830 --> 00:27:54,149 S7: and stuff. And my daughter had a vision, uh, of 456 00:27:54,190 --> 00:27:58,230 S7: putting up a trade tower on the church's property and 457 00:27:58,230 --> 00:28:01,949 S7: remembrance of nine over 11. So the community kind of 458 00:28:01,990 --> 00:28:06,190 S7: came together, which was amazing. And we raised the money 459 00:28:06,430 --> 00:28:09,590 S7: and we have a monument on the side of our 460 00:28:09,590 --> 00:28:13,030 S7: church that has a like a place to sit down 461 00:28:13,030 --> 00:28:16,350 S7: and the monument and the American flag behind it. And 462 00:28:16,350 --> 00:28:18,910 S7: we find so many people just drive here and they'll 463 00:28:18,910 --> 00:28:21,149 S7: sit down and eat their lunch or they'll come out here, 464 00:28:21,430 --> 00:28:24,930 S7: or they put. They still put flowers and little gifts 465 00:28:25,250 --> 00:28:28,410 S7: because they know it represents the trade towers from nine 466 00:28:28,410 --> 00:28:31,730 S7: over 11. So we decided after that we would have 467 00:28:31,730 --> 00:28:37,330 S7: a service outside for the community every year. So we've 468 00:28:37,330 --> 00:28:42,530 S7: got the roads blocked off already. And um, 5:00 this 469 00:28:42,530 --> 00:28:45,730 S7: evening we will have an I think he's an Air 470 00:28:45,730 --> 00:28:51,090 S7: Force guy. Uh, Mr. Haggard, uh, will be speaking and 471 00:28:51,090 --> 00:28:55,090 S7: we will have, uh, another guy that was in Vietnam 472 00:28:55,130 --> 00:28:59,690 S7: who will be saying, uh, a prayer, uh, all military 473 00:28:59,690 --> 00:29:05,570 S7: or somebody that's in connection with, uh, first responders or something. 474 00:29:05,850 --> 00:29:09,890 S7: We'll be doing the service, and it's in remembrance of 475 00:29:09,890 --> 00:29:14,650 S7: 911 this year. Excuse me. We went a little further 476 00:29:15,370 --> 00:29:18,490 S7: and we got the it's called Pike Place. It's a 477 00:29:18,490 --> 00:29:21,570 S7: real nice little park behind the church, uh, where we're 478 00:29:21,570 --> 00:29:24,670 S7: going to have a gospel singing from about oh 6 479 00:29:24,670 --> 00:29:27,830 S7: to 8. It will be very unusual and laid back 480 00:29:27,830 --> 00:29:30,350 S7: because it's going to be. I have young students that 481 00:29:30,350 --> 00:29:34,150 S7: learn violin and instruments that will be playing like a 482 00:29:34,150 --> 00:29:36,390 S7: little recital like thing to get them in front of people. 483 00:29:36,390 --> 00:29:39,190 S7: And then I got some very experienced people that will 484 00:29:39,190 --> 00:29:42,470 S7: just be singing worship songs. But this will be our 485 00:29:42,990 --> 00:29:46,310 S7: 24th year. If I got it right, of having a 486 00:29:46,350 --> 00:29:47,630 S7: 911 service. 487 00:29:48,190 --> 00:29:49,430 S6: That's fantastic. 488 00:29:49,470 --> 00:29:52,310 S1: And Sharon, it sounds like you have been involved just 489 00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:54,070 S1: about all along. Is that true? 490 00:29:54,590 --> 00:29:58,270 S7: Yes. I've got people now that take over. Hallelujah. On 491 00:29:58,270 --> 00:30:03,070 S7: it and organize it. Yeah. But it's been a blessing 492 00:30:03,110 --> 00:30:06,270 S7: for years. And this time they stretched it a little 493 00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:08,710 S7: bigger when they wanted to park behind the building, which 494 00:30:08,710 --> 00:30:12,229 S7: is a great park. Yeah. And one of the ladies 495 00:30:12,230 --> 00:30:14,030 S7: at Bible study the other night said, we got to 496 00:30:14,030 --> 00:30:16,390 S7: do this every year. I said, it's in your lap. 497 00:30:16,390 --> 00:30:17,110 S7: She said, okay. 498 00:30:18,630 --> 00:30:23,220 S1: But yeah, you pray about it and sign up for it. Well, 499 00:30:23,220 --> 00:30:25,220 S1: the thing I really like about that is the different 500 00:30:25,220 --> 00:30:28,220 S1: ages too. So if you have younger kids, you know, they, 501 00:30:28,220 --> 00:30:31,380 S1: they don't know everything about, you know, what happened 25 502 00:30:31,380 --> 00:30:33,540 S1: years ago, but they're part of this, right? 503 00:30:33,580 --> 00:30:37,060 S7: Yes. I asked one of my kids. He was oh, 504 00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:39,740 S7: he was about 13. He says, oh, I had to 505 00:30:39,740 --> 00:30:42,340 S7: study in my homeschool. I know what it's all about. 506 00:30:42,700 --> 00:30:45,140 S7: And I said, great, you know, but they weren't even 507 00:30:45,140 --> 00:30:46,060 S7: born yet. 508 00:30:46,180 --> 00:30:49,660 S1: Right. Well, and the other thing, the, the bench that 509 00:30:49,660 --> 00:30:52,979 S1: you put out there, and I don't where, where in 510 00:30:52,980 --> 00:30:54,700 S1: Indiana is this is it? 511 00:30:54,860 --> 00:30:57,260 S7: Uh, in Crawfordsville, Indiana. 512 00:30:57,420 --> 00:31:02,020 S1: Crawfordsville. Okay. And it's at the Indiana. What part did 513 00:31:02,020 --> 00:31:03,580 S1: you say it was going to be at? 514 00:31:04,220 --> 00:31:08,580 S7: Well, the church is right here on 116 South Walnut Street. 515 00:31:08,620 --> 00:31:12,540 S7: The Pentecostals of Crawfordsville. It's huge. And then right behind 516 00:31:12,540 --> 00:31:18,780 S7: us is the Pat. Uh, what is it? Pike place. Park. 517 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,719 S7: And it's only been up for, I don't know how 518 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,840 S7: many years, but we have our. We have our farmer's 519 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,760 S7: market here every Saturday. We have everything going on all 520 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,040 S7: the time over in this corner. So, uh, this will 521 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,760 S7: be our biggest one because, um, we opened it up 522 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,400 S7: to go longer and to kind of stretch ourselves. 523 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,840 S1: Well, I'm glad you did that. And I'm glad. I'm 524 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,640 S1: glad you let us know it. And what I was 525 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,920 S1: going to say about the, um, that bench that you 526 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,000 S1: have there, there is a thing, the, the, the violence 527 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,120 S1: of that day, the horror of that day, the people 528 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:59,280 S1: running that day, all of the things that were crashing 529 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,400 S1: to the ground, both in New York City and then 530 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,080 S1: in Shanksville and the Pentagon. Um, that what you've done 531 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:11,200 S1: is create this place of peace where people can come 532 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,560 S1: and they may not even know exactly what is, you know, 533 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,000 S1: why this was there, but they can have their lunch 534 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,980 S1: and they can hear the birds sing and they could 535 00:32:18,980 --> 00:32:21,580 S1: see the squirrels or whatever it is that is going 536 00:32:21,580 --> 00:32:24,820 S1: on there. It is just such a peaceful thing that 537 00:32:24,820 --> 00:32:26,100 S1: came out of that day. 538 00:32:27,700 --> 00:32:32,340 S7: It was really a miracle how this all got pulled up, 539 00:32:32,340 --> 00:32:35,740 S7: because our community just we had to open an account 540 00:32:35,740 --> 00:32:38,900 S7: for the monument. They just kept sending money to us. 541 00:32:39,420 --> 00:32:41,780 S7: And my daughter was 16 at the time, and I said, 542 00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:45,460 S7: you better get this together. And she did. And a 543 00:32:45,500 --> 00:32:48,940 S7: lot of it was donated. Uh, so to this day, 544 00:32:48,980 --> 00:32:52,300 S7: it means a lot to our community. It means a 545 00:32:52,300 --> 00:32:53,060 S7: lot to them. 546 00:32:53,700 --> 00:32:55,660 S1: I'm glad we found out about it. So it's the 547 00:32:55,660 --> 00:32:59,540 S1: Pentecostal church there in Crawfordsville, Indiana. And behind it is 548 00:32:59,540 --> 00:33:03,900 S1: the Pike Place Park, and it starts at 5:00 this afternoon. 549 00:33:03,900 --> 00:33:04,700 S1: Is that right? 550 00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:08,380 S7: Yes, Sergeant. 5:00. And then we're we're going to close 551 00:33:08,380 --> 00:33:13,140 S7: it on, uh, walnut right here. We're we'll unblock this 552 00:33:13,140 --> 00:33:16,340 S7: street and then we're going to go back behind the church, 553 00:33:16,340 --> 00:33:18,440 S7: to the park to do the gospel singing. 554 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,360 S1: Should I bring my lawn chair? 555 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,920 S7: Yes. That's why we always put in the brochure in 556 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,160 S7: the newspaper. Bring your lawn chair. But we have some 557 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,520 S7: precious students from Wabash College, uh, which comes over here 558 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,760 S7: and helps us get things set up. PA chairs out there. 559 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,160 S7: Really good. And, uh, we're just really blessed to have 560 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,360 S7: a community that, you know, cares. 561 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,280 S1: Yes. You can have unity without community. I just thought 562 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,400 S1: of that. See that when people come together like that 563 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,000 S1: and there's probably people who, you know, are of different 564 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,240 S1: theological stripes or no theological stripe at all, you know, 565 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,840 S1: who are going to be there, who are going to 566 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,840 S1: are going to be together. Uh, I can't are you 567 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,640 S1: going to say something else? Go ahead. Sharon. 568 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,880 S7: Yeah. At one time we had a gentleman. We played 569 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,120 S7: bluegrass gospel music for years in our community and all 570 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,640 S7: the churches. We just had fun. And he was a 571 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,430 S7: World War Two veteran, and he could. He was a fiddler. 572 00:34:18,469 --> 00:34:20,549 S7: Oh my gosh. Well, he won the state. I don't 573 00:34:20,550 --> 00:34:22,879 S7: know how many times he passed away about 4 or 574 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,069 S7: 5 years ago. I can't remember his name. Archie. Thank you. 575 00:34:26,070 --> 00:34:29,230 S7: My husband just told me and Archie would come. He 576 00:34:29,230 --> 00:34:31,950 S7: would sit there with his cap on. I mean, World 577 00:34:31,950 --> 00:34:34,310 S7: War Two. The man was in his 80s or something 578 00:34:34,310 --> 00:34:38,390 S7: then and or who was up there. And then afterwards 579 00:34:38,390 --> 00:34:41,069 S7: we'd get out our instruments and just sit around and 580 00:34:41,070 --> 00:34:44,509 S7: fiddle and have music. And it was awesome. And he 581 00:34:44,510 --> 00:34:47,470 S7: was an elderly man that could just make you run 582 00:34:47,469 --> 00:34:50,430 S7: for your money when it comes to fiddling on a fiddle. 583 00:34:50,870 --> 00:34:53,350 S1: Okay. Sharon. What? What is your husband's name? 584 00:34:53,989 --> 00:34:55,630 S7: Larry. Larry Sharpe. 585 00:34:55,790 --> 00:34:59,509 S1: Okay, so, Larry, Larry is your co-pilot there? He's he's 586 00:34:59,510 --> 00:35:01,750 S1: your memory for you when you can't remember, right? 587 00:35:02,030 --> 00:35:04,910 S7: Yeah. He's sitting right here beside me. He's he's had 588 00:35:04,910 --> 00:35:07,229 S7: a couple of strokes, but he can still remember far 589 00:35:07,230 --> 00:35:08,270 S7: more than I can. 590 00:35:08,310 --> 00:35:11,910 S1: I'm so glad. Hey. Thank you. Thank you for picking 591 00:35:11,910 --> 00:35:15,410 S1: up the phone and calling us today. So so there 592 00:35:15,410 --> 00:35:19,890 S1: is that microcosm that that thing that happened 25 years 593 00:35:19,890 --> 00:35:23,330 S1: ago that then has spiraled all the way down to 594 00:35:23,410 --> 00:35:29,090 S1: the Pike Place Park this afternoon in Indiana. There's another 595 00:35:29,090 --> 00:35:33,370 S1: person who called a minute ago. Um, Mary called and 596 00:35:33,370 --> 00:35:36,850 S1: she said on the evening of 911, 25 years ago, 597 00:35:37,690 --> 00:35:41,170 S1: she looked outside and she saw that her neighbors had 598 00:35:41,170 --> 00:35:45,089 S1: lit candles in their driveway, and they were on their 599 00:35:45,090 --> 00:35:48,810 S1: knees praying. And she said, I went out and I 600 00:35:48,850 --> 00:35:54,730 S1: joined them. And we do this every year. Now there's 601 00:35:55,210 --> 00:36:01,370 S1: there's a way to observe what happened and a way 602 00:36:01,370 --> 00:36:06,970 S1: to bring unity in the community. Um, and the reason 603 00:36:06,969 --> 00:36:09,810 S1: I thought of that is because the commercial now that 604 00:36:09,810 --> 00:36:12,930 S1: says you can't have American unless you have, I can, 605 00:36:13,350 --> 00:36:17,189 S1: I think it's it's a credit card or something like that, 606 00:36:17,230 --> 00:36:21,669 S1: a bank, I don't know, but it's true. I can 607 00:36:21,670 --> 00:36:25,989 S1: is in American unity is in community. But you got 608 00:36:25,989 --> 00:36:28,629 S1: to work at it. You got to. And that's one 609 00:36:28,630 --> 00:36:32,270 S1: of the things that I have been struggling with about 610 00:36:32,670 --> 00:36:37,750 S1: a day like today is not just the unity thing. 611 00:36:37,750 --> 00:36:41,469 S1: It's what am I, what is happening to my soul? 612 00:36:42,070 --> 00:36:47,509 S1: What is happening to the soul of others with the 613 00:36:47,510 --> 00:36:54,510 S1: constant repeat of the videos of, you know, the planes 614 00:36:54,510 --> 00:36:57,350 S1: in the building and, and all that. And I don't 615 00:36:57,350 --> 00:37:02,870 S1: think somebody had mentioned on Facebook, um, I watch as 616 00:37:02,870 --> 00:37:05,230 S1: much as I can, you know, of, of the coverage 617 00:37:05,230 --> 00:37:07,910 S1: and the, the stories and the good things that come out. 618 00:37:07,910 --> 00:37:12,810 S1: I totally, totally understand that. And when I see images 619 00:37:12,810 --> 00:37:17,170 S1: or pictures or videos of this, it's like I'm drawn 620 00:37:17,170 --> 00:37:22,090 S1: to it too. But my struggle is after 25 years, 621 00:37:22,410 --> 00:37:28,370 S1: what is that doing to me? Just like the, um, 622 00:37:29,730 --> 00:37:36,690 S1: the President Kennedy and seeing Jackie climb back on the 623 00:37:36,690 --> 00:37:41,810 S1: limousine to watch that again and again and again and 624 00:37:41,810 --> 00:37:48,049 S1: to see it, we have it burned into our souls already. Uh, 625 00:37:48,050 --> 00:37:52,690 S1: but to see what Zapruder took and then others, I, 626 00:37:53,210 --> 00:37:56,489 S1: I'm struggling with it and I'm not, I'm not trying 627 00:37:56,489 --> 00:37:59,049 S1: to project this onto you don't watch those videos or 628 00:37:59,050 --> 00:38:02,090 S1: don't watch the because there's some really, really well done 629 00:38:02,090 --> 00:38:07,650 S1: and redemptive stories we've told them here. You know, last year, 630 00:38:07,690 --> 00:38:11,560 S1: the fellow with the the seeing eye dog who's, you know, 631 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,719 S1: a dog got him down and he he let other 632 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,600 S1: people out. Those are some great stories. I just wonder, well, 633 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,120 S1: now you know what I'm struggling with. We'll take your 634 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:27,520 S1: calls straight ahead. (877) 548-3675. On this day, when we observe, 635 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,879 S1: when we remember what happened 25 years ago, and then 636 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,839 S1: ask the hard question, where do we go from here? 637 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,280 S1: How do I live fully in my life with what's 638 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:43,799 S1: behind me? We'll talk more straight ahead here on Moody Radio. 639 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,560 S1: Last few minutes here on Chris Fabry Live. And I 640 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,279 S1: just want to say thank you for those of you 641 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,839 S1: who called today and responded. For the people who have 642 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:05,239 S1: responded on Facebook, such encouraging words and a lot of 643 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,960 S1: people who are friends and partners of this program have 644 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:12,419 S1: been really encouraging this month in September. It's the 11th, 645 00:39:12,420 --> 00:39:17,900 S1: as you know, and already we're way onto our goal.

And I think part of that is the 648 00:39:24,660 --> 00:39:26,580 S1: thank you that we have this month that we did 649 00:39:26,580 --> 00:39:30,300 S1: in August as well. I thought people who are, you know, 650 00:39:30,340 --> 00:39:32,620 S1: still on vacation in August are not going to hear 651 00:39:32,620 --> 00:39:36,339 S1: about Doctor Kathy Cook's resolve, conflict and find peace and 652 00:39:36,340 --> 00:39:39,500 S1: hope with adult children.

Mary, 667 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:27,960 S1: why did you call today? 668 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:34,120 S8: I called to share not only what I did that day, 669 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,760 S8: which was watched the the tragedy and then turn on 670 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,600 S8: w r, m v and prayed for everybody. And the 671 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,720 S8: whole day I did that. It kept me calm down. 672 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,800 S8: The Lord did through that. But also, we've been praying 673 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:53,840 S8: for the 1040 window since 2000 or more before, and 674 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,759 S8: now we have the people here to witness to. And. 675 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,919 S8: And it's also a time that the church needs repentance 676 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:05,040 S8: and revival will have probably have a great awakening, uh, 677 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:10,540 S8: if the obedience of the church is repenting. So that's 678 00:41:10,540 --> 00:41:11,739 S8: what I called about. 679 00:41:11,780 --> 00:41:15,140 S1: I'm glad you did. It's a great reminder. And and 680 00:41:15,140 --> 00:41:17,380 S1: the other part of that, what you talk about is, 681 00:41:17,700 --> 00:41:21,420 S1: you know, there at, at, uh, the Moody radio station 682 00:41:21,420 --> 00:41:24,739 S1: in Florida that you were listening to, this is a 683 00:41:24,739 --> 00:41:29,060 S1: national event that was a global event. You know, people, 684 00:41:29,100 --> 00:41:32,180 S1: there was a football game yesterday in Australia and they 685 00:41:32,180 --> 00:41:35,180 S1: were talking about, you know, what happened 25 years ago 686 00:41:35,380 --> 00:41:38,780 S1: and the Australians who were with us, you know, but 687 00:41:38,780 --> 00:41:41,900 S1: so here's a national international event that was a local 688 00:41:41,900 --> 00:41:45,140 S1: event too, because there were so many people who were involved, 689 00:41:45,140 --> 00:41:49,460 S1: there were so many local things all over the country 690 00:41:49,460 --> 00:41:53,419 S1: that had contact. They had people in those planes or 691 00:41:53,420 --> 00:41:56,500 S1: that were going the next week and driving all the 692 00:41:56,500 --> 00:42:00,660 S1: way to New York City to to give aid and help. Um, 693 00:42:01,060 --> 00:42:04,700 S1: and gander Newfoundland, remember that story, you know, the people 694 00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:08,210 S1: who just opened their. The doors of their homes and said, 695 00:42:08,210 --> 00:42:11,370 S1: come on in. You're stuck here. Come on in. So 696 00:42:11,370 --> 00:42:13,410 S1: there was there's a lot that's going on there. But 697 00:42:13,410 --> 00:42:16,770 S1: then that, as you mentioned, that 1040 window and people 698 00:42:16,770 --> 00:42:19,930 S1: from around the world who are now not we're not 699 00:42:19,930 --> 00:42:22,489 S1: praying for them in the window. They've jumped through the 700 00:42:22,489 --> 00:42:26,770 S1: window they're in. They're in our backyard. And they need 701 00:42:26,850 --> 00:42:31,570 S1: they can hear the message that will change their eternity, 702 00:42:31,570 --> 00:42:36,090 S1: their lives, if we'll be faithful. So thank you, Mary 703 00:42:36,250 --> 00:42:39,490 S1: Mark in Aurora, Illinois. Mark, why did you call today? 704 00:42:40,850 --> 00:42:44,250 S9: Well, you asked for relevant scriptures, and I thought of 705 00:42:44,250 --> 00:42:48,250 S9: this one at the time that 911 happened, because I 706 00:42:48,290 --> 00:42:53,770 S9: got tired of hearing televangelists make pronouncements about who was 707 00:42:53,770 --> 00:42:56,810 S9: to blame and the judgments that God was pronouncing and 708 00:42:56,810 --> 00:43:00,210 S9: so forth. Because a lot of I mean, a lot 709 00:43:00,210 --> 00:43:04,430 S9: of people, a lot of people were loved ones that 710 00:43:04,430 --> 00:43:09,310 S9: their families innocently lost, and I. Josh found the scripture 711 00:43:09,310 --> 00:43:14,150 S9: for me. It's in Luke 13. Jesus says, remember the 712 00:43:14,190 --> 00:43:18,790 S9: folks whose blood Herod mixed with the animal sacrifices? Do 713 00:43:18,790 --> 00:43:21,910 S9: you think that they were any more sinful than you are? 714 00:43:22,070 --> 00:43:26,950 S9: And Jesus says, no, they're not. And watch your own sin, 715 00:43:26,950 --> 00:43:30,350 S9: lest you get into trouble. And then he gives an 716 00:43:30,350 --> 00:43:33,989 S9: example that is so similar to the nine over 11 717 00:43:33,989 --> 00:43:38,310 S9: buildings falling. He says, do you think that the 18 718 00:43:38,430 --> 00:43:43,310 S9: men that the Tower of Siloam fell on are more 719 00:43:43,310 --> 00:43:48,030 S9: sinful than other people? And Jesus said, no. And I 720 00:43:48,030 --> 00:43:50,390 S9: tell you, watch your own sin, lest it get you 721 00:43:50,390 --> 00:43:51,230 S9: into trouble. 722 00:43:53,630 --> 00:43:56,990 S1: Bingo! What do you take away from that mark? 723 00:43:58,590 --> 00:44:03,129 S9: Well, that that we shouldn't we shouldn't appoint ourselves to 724 00:44:03,130 --> 00:44:07,009 S9: be in effect, job's comforters. And. This was a. This 725 00:44:07,010 --> 00:44:11,009 S9: has apparently always been fashionable when. When Jesus and his 726 00:44:11,010 --> 00:44:15,130 S9: disciples encountered a blind man, the disciples said, well, who sinned? 727 00:44:15,130 --> 00:44:18,250 S9: Him or his parents that he's blind? And Jesus said, neither, 728 00:44:18,250 --> 00:44:20,610 S9: but so that the works of God might be shown. 729 00:44:21,090 --> 00:44:23,570 S9: We have. We have this tendency to want to make 730 00:44:23,610 --> 00:44:28,330 S9: attributions about other people's suffering, and Jesus is giving us 731 00:44:28,330 --> 00:44:31,770 S9: a salutary and clear warning not to do that. 732 00:44:32,690 --> 00:44:36,330 S1: Well, and the reason for that, and I'm speaking from experience, 733 00:44:36,330 --> 00:44:40,689 S1: is control. I want to be able to understand and 734 00:44:40,690 --> 00:44:43,569 S1: figure out, you know, what really happened. And it was 735 00:44:43,570 --> 00:44:48,770 S1: a multiple choice question that Jesus says, no, wrong. See? Well, 736 00:44:48,770 --> 00:44:52,770 S1: his parents wanted him at sea. And and look at 737 00:44:52,770 --> 00:44:58,169 S1: what came out of that bad thing. Um, and Anne 738 00:44:58,170 --> 00:45:01,129 S1: says this, Mark, a number of people who are responding 739 00:45:01,190 --> 00:45:05,230 S1: with with verses. The psalm my mom gave me as 740 00:45:05,230 --> 00:45:08,390 S1: a child. Psalm 46. The Lord is my refuge and strength. 741 00:45:08,390 --> 00:45:13,069 S1: I will not fear. Shawna says the Bible's 911 he 742 00:45:13,110 --> 00:45:15,270 S1: who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will 743 00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:19,629 S1: abide in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 911 and 744 00:45:19,630 --> 00:45:22,430 S1: then there was a person who said the hymn that 745 00:45:22,430 --> 00:45:26,310 S1: I'm thinking of. Al, thank you for this. Will your 746 00:45:26,310 --> 00:45:30,630 S1: anchor hold? Listen to these words. Will your anchor hold 747 00:45:30,630 --> 00:45:33,830 S1: in the storms of life. When the clouds unfold. Their 748 00:45:33,830 --> 00:45:37,950 S1: wings of strife. When the strong tides lift and the 749 00:45:37,950 --> 00:45:43,350 S1: cables strain. Will your anchor drift or firm remain. It 750 00:45:43,350 --> 00:45:47,270 S1: is safely moored. Twill the storm withstand. For tis well 751 00:45:47,310 --> 00:45:51,350 S1: secured by the Savior's hand. Though the tempest rage. And 752 00:45:51,350 --> 00:45:56,589 S1: the wild winds blow. Not an angry wave shall our 753 00:45:56,590 --> 00:46:01,300 S1: boat or flow. When our eyes Behold through the gathering 754 00:46:01,300 --> 00:46:06,020 S1: night the city of gold, our harbor bright. We shall 755 00:46:06,020 --> 00:46:10,780 S1: anchor fast by the heavenly shore. With the storms all 756 00:46:10,780 --> 00:46:15,340 S1: past forevermore. And the refrain is, we have an anchor 757 00:46:15,780 --> 00:46:20,460 S1: that keeps the soul steadfast and sure. While the billows 758 00:46:20,460 --> 00:46:25,859 S1: roll fastened to the rock which cannot move. Grounded, firm 759 00:46:26,340 --> 00:46:30,859 S1: and deep in the Savior's love. That's what I want 760 00:46:30,900 --> 00:46:34,060 S1: to hang on to today. And I hope you will too. 761 00:46:34,420 --> 00:46:37,580 S1: To hang on to the love of the Savior who 762 00:46:37,580 --> 00:46:41,180 S1: poured himself out for you and me. Gave the last 763 00:46:41,180 --> 00:46:45,500 S1: full measure for you and me. Aren't you glad that 764 00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:49,940 S1: you can celebrate that even on a day like this day, 765 00:46:50,260 --> 00:46:54,219 S1: September 11th? Have a great weekend. Chris Fabry lives production 766 00:46:54,219 --> 00:46:57,540 S1: of Moody Radio, a Ministry of Moody Bible Institute.
