Gosh, at least fifteen years ago. 41 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 2: So thank you again. I appreciate it, but I wanted 42 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: to get your take. You know, this month marks a 43 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: time of great change with the inauguration and the annual 44 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: March for Life, and of course Martin Luther King Junior day. 45 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 6: What are your thoughts? 46 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 2: Is this a convergence or a coincidence. 47 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 4: When parophials collide, convergence is imminent. There's no such thing 48 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 4: really as sarendiffancy or coincidence. They seem to be coincidental, 49 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 4: but there really are not. Before we jump into that, 50 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: I hear that one of our President Trump's executive orders 51 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 4: is going to address people being hired based on the 52 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 4: color of this scan. And I think you doing an 53 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 4: executive order possibly that says we're not going to have 54 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 4: anything any rule a lord that says people have to 55 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 4: be hired because of the color of their skin. I 56 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 4: haven't looked into that yet, but it makes sense to me. 57 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: If we're one blood and one human race, all of 58 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 4: us have created equal. My uncle, Reverend doctor Martin Luther 59 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 4: King Jenior, says we must learn to live together as brothers, 60 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 4: our added sisters, and not paired together as fools. We 61 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 4: need to have fair treatment to all Americans, regardless of 62 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 4: skin color, gender, all of those kinds of things, socioeconomic conditions. 63 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 4: We need to be fair to each other and give 64 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 4: everybody a chance on a level playing field. 65 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 6: I do agree with that absolutely. 66 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: What's your reaction to President Trump being sworn in last 67 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 2: week and what do you expect to see in terms 68 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: of faith and patriotism in America? Now that he's back 69 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 2: in office. 70 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 4: Well, as he was going in on the day of 71 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 4: the Martin Luther King Junior Holiday, I said, Hey, the 72 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 4: American dream here we are. So I believe that we're 73 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: going to have to hold the President Trump and his 74 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 4: whole cabinet accountable and we have to support them, agree 75 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 4: with them, and help them to unite and make this 76 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 4: country strong and beautiful. And I know we can do it, 77 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 4: and I know we can do it together. 78 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 6: I do too. 79 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: You know Ephesians six ' ten through eighteen talks about 80 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: we don't wrestle against flesh and blood. It's not against 81 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: each other. But what has happened in mainstream media is 82 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 2: that they made us believe that it was that way. 83 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: And I'm so glad that obviously that President. 84 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 6: Trump is back in office. 85 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: Now, I understand that you have a powerful call to 86 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: action for American people. 87 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 6: Could you tell us a little bit about that. 88 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 4: With that cause to action, First, we're going to pray. 89 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 4: Then we're going to act upon really for me, the 90 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 4: word of God. I'm a Christian evangelist. We're going to 91 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: have a good work ethic. We're going to learn to 92 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,679 Speaker 4: repent and to forgive, to listen and hear each other. 93 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: And as we do that, in the next elections to come, 94 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 4: we're going to carefully examine the policies and positions of 95 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 4: the candidates, not the personality. These are the types of 96 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 4: things that we have to do first the whole life, 97 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 4: sales accountable, and then others. So that's part of the 98 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 4: call to action, to stop fighting, to stop making enemies, 99 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 4: and let's build a strong nation. 100 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 6: I agree. 101 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: You know, we have more in common on both sides 102 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 2: of the aisle than we understand, or we've been pushed 103 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: to disagree with each other because of certain things, and 104 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: you know, it doesn't make any sense to me. 105 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 6: But I'm so glad that you're in this ring. 106 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: You're of the person in the arena to talk about 107 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 2: faith and what your uncle stood for and ask actually 108 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: I wanted to ask you, how did you celebrate Martin 109 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: Luther King Junior holiday? 110 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 6: What did you do or what traditions do you have. 111 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 4: I was in Washington, d C. On January the twentieth, 112 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 4: which was the day we celebrate my uncle' birthday and 113 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 4: the inauguration, so certainly I the day before I was 114 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 4: at the breakfast, the Martin Luther King Breakfast acknowledging the 115 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 4: ministry and work of my uncle, and I think that 116 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 4: it was very important. At the same time, I donate 117 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 4: to a ministry that feeds different communities around the world, 118 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 4: combating Hunter. So this time we sold money into feeding 119 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 4: people in Haiti who needed food in honor of my uncle. 120 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: So every Martin's the King Holiday, I do something to 121 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 4: serve the community, and when I'm in Atlanta, I will 122 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 4: actually go myself and take baskets of food and other 123 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 4: items that the people in those communities need. 124 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 6: So what are next steps for you? What are you 125 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 6: planning in the future, and. 126 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: How can our audience get involved in help this cause. 127 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 4: I am director of the Center for the American Dream 128 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 4: at America First Policy Institute.

For God so loved the world that he 142 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes on him 143 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 4: will not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did 144 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 4: not send his son into the world to condemn the world, 145 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 4: but that the world through him might be saved. And 146 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 4: then you'll hear me very often everywhere I go his 147 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 4: one little line to a song, let your light go sign. 148 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 4: That's Jesus talking, this little light of mine.

The last four 288 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 3: years have been devastating, and we this this weekend as 289 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 3: we were in d C. We felt a few little 290 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 3: things still hangover, but it was so great to be 291 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 3: back in DC.

But at the end of the day, 303 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 3: my heart is the faith of our nation, and believe 304 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 3: the faith is what really founded our nation, and so 305 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 3: we're going to be involved helping as an advisor to 306 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: the president discussing faith in ways that we can improve that. 307 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: Under George W. Bush, actually the Faith Team was created, 308 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 3: but under President Trump and around twenty seventeen, he really 309 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 3: expanded it. And so we have a faith director working 310 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 3: with every secretary of each department, and there is a 311 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 3: lot of fun things planning. Here's what's really cool is 312 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 3: next year is going to be the two hundred and 313 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 3: fiftieth birthday of our nation and we're already working on that. 314 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 3: We're going to have a massive, massive celebration. You know, 315 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 3: anything President Trump does, he does to the biggest and 316 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 3: the best, and we're going to have a massive celebration. 317 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 3: We're already looking ahead to that and very much focusing 318 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 3: on the faith that founded our nation. And so I'm 319 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 3: excited about that. You know, it's funny how many people 320 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 3: attack President Trump and you know, talk about maybe his 321 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 3: lack of faith or whatever. And you know, there was 322 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 3: some people attacking the fact that he didn't have his 323 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 3: hands on the Bible when he swore in, and of 324 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 3: course that was not President Trump's fault. The Chief Justice 325 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 3: rushed things a little bit Malania didn't get a chance 326 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 3: to get in place quite quick enough. But I can 327 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 3: promise you that the President understands the importance of the 328 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 3: Bible and God's word and actually partnered with us with 329 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 3: Lee Greenwood on the God bless you to say Bible. 330 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 3: But he is all about bringing the Bible back and 331 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: putting it back into schools, putting it back in the 332 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 3: government buildings. I don't know if you're aware of this, 333 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 3: but you know, scripture is all throughout DC. But unfortunately 334 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 3: this past administration started covering up some of it in 335 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 3: places like the Library of the Congress. And so we're 336 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 3: doing our best to quickly get to all those murals 337 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 3: that were hungover scripture taken down, so people can see 338 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 3: the Bible again because it's the word of God. It's 339 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 3: the faith in God that really shaped our great nation. 340 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 6: Well, I'm so happy for you. I'm so excited. 341 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: I hope you come back on many many times. 342 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 6: But tell, let's go back a little bit. 343 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 2: How did we get here at ben How do we 344 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 2: see this attack on Christianity over the past. It wasn't 345 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: just four years, It started happening a little longer ago. 346 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 6: How did we get here? 347 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 3: Well, I think, you know, I wrote a book last 348 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: year called Ignorance and Apathy, two of America's deadliest sins, 349 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 3: And I believe that really the blame goes to Christians 350 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 3: and really ultimately to pastors who became passive and quit 351 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 3: speaking the truth, quit preaching the truth, and you know, 352 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 3: for sake of them saying, you know, we don't want 353 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 3: to offend anybody, we quit speaking truth. And so we 354 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 3: began to give up our rights, our spiritual rights, our freedoms, 355 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 3: and we allowed, you know, all of a sudden, Christianity 356 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 3: was under fire and attack and we just set aside 357 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 3: and a lot of people did nothing about it, and 358 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 3: then we ultimately got to the place that we're at today. 359 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 3: And so I think we need to understand that. You know, 360 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: while everybody has a chance to worship or not worship 361 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 3: however they see fit. Freedom of religion, it's not freedom 362 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 3: from religion. We don't kick God out, we don't remove God. 363 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 3: And if it offends somebody, they don't have to participate, 364 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 3: they don't have to be involved. But we know as 365 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 3: believers that we're completely spitting in the eye of God 366 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 3: if we tell him he's not invited. And you know, 367 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 3: It's like you see it all the time. A tragedy 368 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 3: happens at a school and people are like, how could 369 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 3: God let this happen? And you know, we can't blame 370 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 3: it on God. We kicked God out of our schools 371 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 3: a long time ago. We've told God he's no longer welcomed. 372 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 3: But now we have a president that understands we can't 373 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 3: do this without God. And I think, especially when President 374 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 3: Trump was nearly assassinated and he said this at the 375 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 3: inauguration speech, he understands God gave him an opportunity. God 376 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 3: put him here, and he understands that he owes a 377 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 3: lot to God for sparing his life, and he wants 378 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 3: to make sure he honors God. And so that's our goal. 379 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 3: That's what we're going to try to do, to help 380 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 3: this administration honor God and to put God first in 381 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: everything we do. 382 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 6: I love that. 383 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 2: What do you think is the number one obstacle that 384 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 2: can get in the way of America putting God first, 385 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 2: regaining our faith and being bold and brave about it. 386 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 3: Well, I mean I always go back to history tells 387 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 3: us when we have every thing we want, we tend 388 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: to not need God. And that's just people. And so 389 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 3: you know, the last four years, the economy got tight, 390 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 3: you know, inflation all that people were in need. So 391 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 3: right now people are a little more open to this. 392 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 3: What we can't do is now relax and go, well, okay, 393 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 3: President Trump's end and we're going to see the economy 394 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 3: sore again, and we're going to see our freedoms, you know, 395 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 3: be able to be enjoyed a little bit more. We 396 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 3: can't just relax now and and forget about what we're 397 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 3: supposed to do. And this is a message that I'm 398 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 3: really passionate about, is we've been given another chance. But 399 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 3: we can't just sit back and do nothing. We can't 400 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: just you know, hope somebody else takes the reins and moves. 401 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: We each individual have to step forward and stand strong 402 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 3: in our faith and not allow us to go back 403 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 3: again to where we were, and make sure we do 404 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 3: our part to let people know the reason we're blessed 405 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 3: is because we are one nation under God, and we 406 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 3: must as a nation put Him first. And and so 407 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 3: so that's my challenge to our new president, my challenge 408 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 3: to all of our leaders as we've been meeting with 409 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 3: the new cabinet members, is please put God first in 410 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 3: everything you do. And if we'll do that, we know 411 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 3: that we're honoring God. In the return, I know that 412 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 3: God will honor us and we'll still be blessed as 413 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 3: a nation. 414 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 6: I love that. So what's next for you besides this? 415 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 2: So you can still be able to I know you're 416 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 2: involved in acting and producing films. 417 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 6: Are you still going to be able to do that? 418 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 3: We're planning on it. I have been sitting for almost 419 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 3: a month not being able to put anything on my schedule, 420 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 3: my calendar waiting, and so I'm set to do the 421 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 3: lead in two movies and a series this year, and 422 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 3: so all the dates on that have been put on hold. 423 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 3: I have another book that's coming out this year that's 424 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 3: been put on hold because we were trying to decide 425 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 3: is this going to be the right book for this 426 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 3: year with what we're doing. And so finally just now 427 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 3: I'm starting to be able to get things in my calendar. 428 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 3: And I was talking to my family at lunch today. 429 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 3: We just got back from DC and we're talking about it. 430 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 3: I have one hundred and seventy requests something like that 431 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 3: for speaking events and different things, which I love, and 432 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 3: so now we just got to try to do what 433 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 3: we can. But honestly, the most important thing, and this 434 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 3: is why challenge everybody in your schedule is prioritize. My 435 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 3: number one priority is my relationship with God.

So from script to screen, so every 530 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: every script, every story, that's what we're focused on. 531 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've seen that video, a trailer 532 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 2: with there's a couple of. 533 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 6: Celebrities, Hollywood celebrities, Matthew. 534 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 2: McConaughey and a couple of others are driving in a 535 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 2: car and they're talking. 536 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 6: About bringing Hollywood or filming. 537 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: And nowadays you can film with your phone, right, you 538 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 2: can create really good quality films with your phone.

But how important is it for us and 541 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 2: for creators filmmakers to create inspiring movies that empower and 542 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: talk about God's miracles rather than quite honestly, the crap 543 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 2: that you see at the box office. 544 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 3: Yes. 545 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the movies that I produced was a 546 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: movie called Blue Miracle starring Dennis Quaid. And the whole 547 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: reason I got involved I saw the article about a 548 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: group of orphan boys that win the sport fishing tournament 549 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: down in Mexico and how it saved their orphanage. And 550 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: the reason I really got involved was I felt like 551 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: I could say that God loves the orphans without saying 552 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: God loves the orphans, and it worked out beautifully. Over 553 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: one hundred million people have seen the film. It's had 554 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: a huge impact on the Orphanage. People have donated from 555 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: all over the world to keep the Orphanage in business 556 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: and doing its mission just because we told it's that 557 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: is amazing. 558 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 6: I want to see that. 559 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 2: But you've got a new movie coming out the end 560 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 2: of this month. 561 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 6: Tell us about that. 562 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 4: Ah. 563 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's a movie called Green and Gold and 564 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: it hits theaters. There's a poster right there. It hits 565 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: theaters January thirty first across the country. It stars Craig 566 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: t Nelson, who I love. He's a man of faith 567 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: and he's just amazing in this film. Also got some 568 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: other talent, and it's got music in it, so original music, 569 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: which always makes it fun. And it deals with the 570 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: farming crisis going on in our country. Looks like you 571 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: have the trailer going there. 572 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's so exciting and so needed, and you 573 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 2: get to tell stories that are important to everybody. We 574 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 2: know that we've been brainwashed by Hollywood over the years. 575 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: We are seeing only what they want us to see 576 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 2: and I think people have gotten beyond that and we're 577 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 2: tired of it. And one of the things I wanted 578 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: to ask you about is how can we change the 579 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 2: laws to give film I don't know where you're located, 580 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 2: but to give filmmakers more incentive in certain states and 581 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: more kickbacks. They would say, certain states like Texas, how 582 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 2: do we do that? 583 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, so Texas should be a great place to film. 584 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it really should, but they don't have a 585 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: big enough incentive package. So I think it's getting in 586 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: touch with all of your with your starting at your 587 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: governor and saying, hey, we need to compete with you know, 588 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: Georgia and Louisiana and the other states, because Texas should 589 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: be where we're taking these faith friendly, family friendly films 590 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: to go go make them there. 591 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean at one point there were more films 592 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 2: being made in Texas and then laws changed. 593 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 6: But I wanted to ask you to what. 594 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 2: What do you think the future holds for faith based film? 595 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 2: I mean years ago, of course, with Hollywood, people often 596 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 2: looked at faith based filming and thought, okay, that's it's 597 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 2: kind of. 598 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 6: You know, it's not as exciting. 599 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 2: We've gotten used to you know, shoot them up movies 600 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 2: and things like that. 601 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 6: But what is the future hold. 602 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 2: Do you think that there's ever going to be something 603 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 2: in between, the gap where it's not just you know, 604 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 2: a Hallmark type movie, and it certainly isn't you know 605 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 2: X or R or anything like that. 606 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 6: Is there a need for something in between? 607 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: Oh, at the end of the day, most of us 608 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: want great stories, and we don't want the F words 609 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: and we don't want the gratuitous violence. But we have 610 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: to raise the quality and so financing is a big 611 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: part of that. But I believe that when when we 612 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: have the ability to pay for talent to to be 613 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: in these amazing stories that are out there, it will raise, 614 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: it'll continue to raise the bar we're seeing it raise. 615 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 3: Hopefully I'm a part of that. 616 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: Uh And in my opinion, the best movies have not 617 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: been made yet, and hopefully Reserve Entertainment will be a. 618 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 3: Part of that. 619 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 2: Well, then I need to talk to you because my 620 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 2: son Roco and I are both screenwriters and we've got 621 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 2: a few stories and screenplays that we are mulling around. 622 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: So I'm going to definitely talk to off Era about 623 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 2: all that. 624 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 6: But what do you think the future holds for faith 625 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 6: based films. 626 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,239 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's pretty obvious that more exactly what 627 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 2: you said, We don't want to hear this f that 628 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 2: all the time.

I remember we 692 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 2: had to come inside when the street lights came on 693 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 2: during the beautiful warm summer Michigan afternoons and evenings. But 694 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 2: then those street lights came on, we had to come in. 695 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 2: When we were outside all day long. We just if 696 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 2: we were thirsty, we didn't go inside to drink water. 697 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 2: We just drank out of the garden hose. Remember those days. 698 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: You can't do that anymore. Sadly, we don't know what's 699 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 2: in the water. Maybe just a little bit of voc 700 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 2: volatile organic compounds, maybe some arsenic I mean yuck.

Here with me now to discuss 713 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 2: is the author of Moving Ahead, Tom Linders. Tom, thanks 714 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 2: so much for joining me. 715 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,959 Speaker 7: That's my pleasure. Thank you for having me. 716 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: So what prompted you to write your new book Moving Forward? 717 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 8: I am the backup preacher of my church and my 718 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 8: pastor and went on a vacation and I appreciate part 719 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 8: of this message the summer, but then he had a 720 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 8: stroke and for seven weeks I preached seven sermons on. 721 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 7: David, which is why I have David on the cover. 722 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 8: And when I got done with that, I got just 723 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 8: put it on my heart that this was actually a 724 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 8: book that I needed to share beyond the walls of 725 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 8: that church. 726 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 7: And we do webcasts, but. 727 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 8: I just felt that God had given me a book 728 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 8: that I had to write. 729 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 2: What's the best way that we could go about rebuilding 730 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,240 Speaker 2: the national identity to focus on Christ. 731 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 8: If we all the values that Jesus represented, if we 732 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 8: all to be a Christian means to be christ Like. 733 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 8: So if we show Christ in how we conduct ourselves 734 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 8: both in business and personal, even with those we disagree with, 735 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 8: and then there are plenty of those and they're screaming loud, 736 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 8: But how we handle that moving forward? That's why I 737 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:04,240 Speaker 8: titled the book that will show Christ's character to others 738 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 8: and enable them to come to faith in Him. Wanting 739 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 8: them to our side. Making them conservative or Republicans isn't important. 740 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 8: I mean, ultimately I think that's where they'll end. But 741 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 8: getting them to know Jesus Christ is the key to 742 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 8: the whole. 743 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 2: Thing, you know, the media over not just the past 744 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 2: four years, but longer than that. 745 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 6: For a while, they were trying. 746 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 2: To dissuade us into thinking that, you know, we weren't America, 747 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 2: the beautiful, We weren't America that was great, and they 748 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: pushed the Dei agenda on us and so many other 749 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:45,800 Speaker 2: things that we all knew were wrong. But we said nothing, 750 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,479 Speaker 2: we did nothing, We were apathetic, and we. 751 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 6: Allowed this to happen. 752 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 2: So how do we empower the next generation to lead 753 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 2: a christ centered life. 754 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 3: Again? 755 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 8: We start by displaying that ourselves, but then we encourage 756 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 8: them with compassion. We keep our shoulder, you know, our 757 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,439 Speaker 8: arm around their shoulder, letting him know. 758 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 7: That, yeah, you're gonna get rops through on that you. 759 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 8: Jesus said that if you love me, the world isn't 760 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 8: gonna hate you. 761 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 7: But we do. We stand with them and with each other. 762 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 8: So that we know we're not alone and we can 763 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 8: have that moral support needed. And then trusting God. I mean, 764 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 8: God shielded David in the battle. And that's why I 765 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 8: focus so much on David in the book. He would 766 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 8: be out there with swords and spears and arrows bringing 767 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 8: down on him, and if he was counting on his 768 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 8: own ability. I don't think he could have went out 769 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 8: a second time, but he knew that God was protecting him. 770 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 8: And we've got to help everybody know that you can 771 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 8: go out there boldly because if you're going out there 772 00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 8: with God, he will protect you. 773 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 2: Linders, thank you so much for joining me.
