And as we approach twenty 19 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 2: twenty five, I got to say, I'm really inspired by 20 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: President Trump's leadership and his vision for making America great 21 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: again and healthy again. With that same spirit of renewal, 22 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 2: I'm excited to announce my new book, Abundantly Well, available 23 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 2: January seventh.

You know, America faces a growing crisis 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: of poverty, health struggles, and failing schools. Challenge is rooted 29 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: in a bigger issue, government dependency. The federal government thrives 30 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: on keeping people reliant, using control as a means of power, 31 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: which is why breaking free from this dependency is crucial 32 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: for real progress. My guest today, Star Parker, is the 33 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: founder and strategic advisor of the Center for Urban Renewal 34 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: and Education. Her new book is called The State of 35 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: Black Progress, Confronting Government and Judicial Obstacles. Star, thanks for 36 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: joining me. 37 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 1: You're very, very welcome. What an introduction to be along 38 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: with your introduction that you're glad about the changes that 39 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: Trump is going to bring here to Washington, d C. 40 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: So I guess government dependency won't be so big and 41 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: vast in other people's lives. After all, we're looking forward 42 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: to a really, really good next four years. 43 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, how about you, what are your thoughts on 44 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: Trump's selection and everything moving forward. 45 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Well, what we do know based on what this interview 46 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: is about, and that's breaking the cycle of poverty, and 47 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: in order to do that, we've got to break the 48 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 1: cycle of government dependency. What we do know is this 49 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: new team coming in to Washington has a focus on that. 50 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Too much has broken down in our society. We're far 51 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: away from our founding principles, and so there will be 52 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: a correction coming into place over the next year. And 53 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: so we're very excited here at Cure Policy to work 54 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: with the incoming administration, in particular on issues of culture, race, 55 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: and poverty. 56 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,839 Speaker 2: Why is it do you think that immigrants coming here 57 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: often seem to get more resources and opportunities while so 58 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 2: many other Americans are still struggling. 59 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: Well, one of the things that we do know about 60 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 1: Americans that struggle is what we've done coming out of 61 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: the sixties is we targeted people groups, poverty groups, and 62 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: put them in under government controls. So we have about 63 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: eighty seven hundred broken zip codes across the country where 64 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: everything in those zip codes are broken. One of the 65 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: things that President Trump was able to do the last 66 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: time he was in town was signed into the tax 67 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: bill and opportunities on initiatives so that moneys could focus, 68 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: private money could focus on these hard hit areas. But 69 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: after that a decade we're talking now four decades actually 70 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: of government dependency, growth in government dependency in some of 71 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: our hardest hit communities, you will have that struggle with 72 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: the people that are living there. 73 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 2: What are some of the actionable steps that your foundation 74 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: talks about and suggests that communities and individuals can break 75 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: this cycle. 76 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's interesting question because during twenty twenty, 77 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: when we had the Summer of Love and the peaceful 78 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: protesters marching through our streets even though everybody else was 79 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: locked down during pandemic, but they were so upset with 80 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: George Floyd they decided that they wanted to destroy other 81 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: people's property. Well, cure did was went into some of 82 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 1: our most hard hit communities with a billboard campaign. We 83 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: had the success sequence on these billboards. They were very simple. 84 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: Tired of poverty, then finish school, take any job, get married, 85 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: save and invest, get back to your community. Had a 86 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: little proverb on it, and it had instructions for they 87 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: wanted more materials to follow up on those simple success 88 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: sequence initiatives for their own personal Lives that we would 89 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: send it to them. Well, BLM, Black Lives Matters went 90 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: to the Billboard company and demanded that they took those 91 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: boards down. They said, you take them down, or will 92 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: burn them down. So what we're up against is a 93 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: regime of pagan progressives who like the status quo. They 94 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: like people trapped in poverty, they like people trapped in 95 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: poor communities, and so we're going to have to push in. 96 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: We're going to have to break that cycle through public policy. 97 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: So what we do here are cures. We focus on 98 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: public policy, what broke down, where is it, and let's 99 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: go and get ourselves uprooted from it. So we're looking 100 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: very very forward to not only working with those that 101 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: are in departments, whether it's HUT or whether it's AJHS, 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 1: whether it's energy, education and or labor, but also with 103 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: the Vick and Elon to make sure that they understand 104 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: where that two trillion is so that they can go 105 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: and purge it out. Not just because of the money, 106 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: but what we're doing is we're destroying potential. People have 107 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: resources that they need to pull out of themselves, but 108 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: government gets in the way of them discovering their own 109 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: personal purpose in life. So we decided years ago, I 110 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: decided to found this organization. That was after experience in 111 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: firsthand living on welfare. I believed all the lives of 112 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: the left. I believed the government promises that they would 113 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: take care of me from womb to tomb, even though 114 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: I had gotten involved in criminal activity and drug activity, 115 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: and sexual activity and abortion activity, and finally end up 116 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: living on welfare. I'll tell you, it just doesn't work 117 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: for people. So what we're going to have to do 118 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: is what we did, and welfare reform in the nineties 119 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: continue that process to dismantle the relationship that individuals have 120 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: with their government so that they can discover their personal work, 121 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: their dignity, and their purpose for life. 122 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: You know, I was scrolling on TV and I saw 123 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 2: you come up, and I went, Star Parker, I need 124 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 2: to have her on my show. My husband is a 125 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: huge of yours and years ago. Yes he is, and 126 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: that's why I remember. I remember you and remember your 127 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 2: story and what you've been through. Can you share just 128 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 2: a couple of minutes of. 129 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: That, You know, I would really like to meet him, 130 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: because you're absolutely right. In fact, back in the Rush 131 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: Limbaugh days, that's how I knew about your husband because 132 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: I published a book in Rush had endorsement called Pimps, 133 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Horse and Welfare Brats, and it was my autobiography talking 134 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: about how I was able to break free after a 135 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: born again experience and then leaving welfare. And yeah, he 136 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: was shout out on any show that he was on. 137 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 2: Here I want to meet. 138 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: That's Stark Parker, welfare brat. So when I saw your 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: invite him, I was just thrilled to be here with you. 140 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, it isn't rocket science. What we've 141 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: done is we've stolen the potential for people to discover 142 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: themselves and their unique gifts. And when government got involved 143 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: in other people's problems and lives coming out of the 144 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: sixties into the seventies, we started destroying family life. And 145 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: once you get into fairly life being destroyed, people really 146 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: just don't know what to do. It's very easy to 147 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: get lost if you don't have instruction. So what we 148 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: have to do is rebuild instruction in our society, and 149 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: it starts with faith. I mean faith in God alone 150 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: will help people make better decisions for their lives. So 151 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: we have to kind of like a stick shift car, 152 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: you're going to have to learn how to press on 153 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: the gas as you lift off the clutch. And that's 154 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the activity that's going to be going 155 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: on here in Washington under the leadership for President Trump. 156 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: I'll come next year. However, those that know how to 157 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: drive a stick shift car and know that there are 158 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: a lot of times that you got to stall out, 159 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: so it will be difficult to get that balance. But 160 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: I think that people will end up better as my 161 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: life did after I left welfare and got into my 162 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: own potential, finish school, get to college, and then started 163 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: a business. 164 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 2: I love that, and I wanted to ask you what 165 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 2: role does faith and personal responsibility play in creating lasting 166 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: changes for people and finding their pose in life. 167 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: I can't think of any other. I think trying to 168 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: do it by yourself is just tragic. I think that, 169 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 1: especially with so many influences from outside and with social 170 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: media and other influences. When you don't have church life, 171 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: you don't have truth, you don't have balance. You're making 172 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: it up as you go along, and then you have 173 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: Uncle Sam promise, and don't worry about any natural consequences. 174 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: We've safety nets on anyone that's been caught in one 175 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: of those safety nets. Knows that it's just not working 176 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: for them. It was actually a born again for me. 177 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: But also to get up and read a proverb day. 178 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: Once you start reading a proverb by day and you 179 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: start getting that habit and you start believing what you're reading, 180 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: you can recover various skills that you didn't know that 181 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: you had. And it doesn't matter then what the circumstances 182 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: outside are telling you what kind of start? If I 183 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: want to go in the House of Projects and talk 184 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: to the girls said, you know, your faith is not 185 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: your destiny. Where you start is not where you have 186 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: to finish. So no matter how broken your life may 187 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: appear that day, it doesn't have to stay that way 188 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: if you apply certain principles. And yes, those principles are 189 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: rooted in Scripture. Our founders knew it, freedoms to in 190 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: and on it. And now it's about people rebuilding family 191 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: life and their own personal structure of responsibility to make 192 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: choices that are going to leave them a legacy and 193 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: life of peace. 194 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 2: You know, Star, you are certainly an esther. You were 195 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 2: born for such a time as this, and you saw 196 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: a moment and you jumped in and you were bold 197 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 2: and brave. So thank you, and God bless you for 198 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: doing that and for speaking out because so many other 199 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: people could have just taken care of their own lives 200 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: and one long, you know, with their own business, but 201 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 2: you saw a need and you jumped right in there. 202 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 2: I got about a minute left.

We're having a little 276 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 5: Christmas early Christmas celebration here with my mom. 277 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 2: Nice, wonderful. Well, I'm so glad you guys took time 278 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: out of your busy schedule to spend it with me. 279 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: You know, we often rush through the Christmas season, buying 280 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: gifts and decorating trees and going to parties, but we 281 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 2: miss the true meaning of Christmas. How can your new 282 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 2: book Christmas for Forty Days help us slow down and 283 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 2: really get that message into our hearts and our minds 284 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 2: and our souls. 285 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 6: That is the hope behind the book is, let's not 286 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 6: rush through this season, and let's focus on the intent 287 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 6: behind the season. And so for forty days we encourage 288 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 6: people to do this devotional. It takes thirty days to 289 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 6: form a habit. So the idea is, if you do 290 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 6: this devotional for forty days. And by the way, every 291 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 6: devotion every day is includes what we call a Christmas 292 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 6: commission or two, which our ideas to implement Christmas into 293 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 6: your life or to share the joy of Christmas with 294 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 6: other people. One of the things that we've done for 295 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 6: several years, and I involved the kids in this, is 296 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 6: we would pack Christmas boxes for Operation Christmas Child, which 297 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 6: is a Samaritan's. 298 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: Purse outreach to the greater world. 299 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 6: And I'll tell you why, because years ago, when I 300 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 6: was on radio, I invited a young man on while 301 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 6: my producer did right, and I interviewed him and he 302 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 6: had been the recipient of an Operation Christmas Child box, 303 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 6: and it changed his whole life because for that brief moment, 304 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 6: he understood that somebody in the world loved him and 305 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 6: that that person was God. And so to do things 306 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 6: like that is to share the joy of Christmas. And 307 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 6: it's something that we really shouldn't lose sight of. But 308 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 6: it's so easy to lose sight of it with all 309 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 6: of the holidays, stress and stuff that's going on. And 310 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 6: so that's what the book is about, is it's just 311 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 6: about celebrating Christmas for more than just the day. 312 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 5: Well, Sam, she mentioned it takes thirty days befom a habit. 313 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 5: For me, Unfortunately, I was one day of golf and 314 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 5: that became my habit. And I'm sure with Ted it 315 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 5: was one day of hunting. So yes, we're hoping that 316 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 5: this becomes a habit for people just one day as well. 317 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 2: I love that. So what tradition from your book or 318 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: practices that some of us take for granted. Could other 319 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 2: people realize that, you know, it could transform their families. 320 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: You know, there are a lot of people still coming 321 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: to christ there are a lot of people who are 322 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 2: new here. And that's what I hope to read, which 323 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 2: is there are a lot of believers watching this. But 324 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 2: if you had one message to give to people for 325 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 2: hope and change in their lives, what would that be. 326 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,479 Speaker 5: Well for everyone who says happy Holidays, look at them 327 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 5: and say, no, it's merry Christmas. The reason for the 328 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 5: season is Jesus, not gift giving. Gift gimming is wonderful 329 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 5: and it's part of our tradition, part of our family 330 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 5: as well. But I very loudly proclaim anyone who says 331 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 5: Happy Holidays to me that it actually is Merry Christmas. 332 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: I love that. I see your tweets sometimes and I'm like, moow, 333 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 2: he's really getting bold and brave. You're a lot like 334 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 2: my husband Kevin. You know that right, You. 335 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 5: Know it's funny. The first time I met Ted in 336 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 5: person was four or five years ago when we were 337 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 5: in Waco. 338 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 2: Six years came. 339 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 5: It was when Nancy Pelos.

It 352 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 5: was awesome with a lot of veterans. It's a veteran. 353 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 5: A guy runs a place there for veterans for hunting 354 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 5: and fishing, and it's just it's a wonderful place. What 355 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 5: this guy puts. 356 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: Together, Well, you have to come out and visit again. 357 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: I know that. One of the things that I wanted 358 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 2: to talk to you about. I wanted to pick your 359 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: brain a little bit because I know you both, and 360 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,959 Speaker 2: you've done so many projects together, movies and written books together, 361 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: and I know what it's like as a husband and 362 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 2: wife team. You know, it sounds fun, but it can 363 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 2: often be challenging. So how do you balance having perhaps 364 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:56,239 Speaker 2: different perspectives on a project without allowing the stress of 365 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: that to do anything to your relationship. 366 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 5: I just have to I'm always right, I'm in trouble. 367 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to need that in a quote because 368 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 2: I have to share that with my husband. He's I 369 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 2: think that is true. But really, seriously, you work long 370 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 2: hours together, especially filming movies. Are there any times where 371 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 2: you just go you have to take a break or yeah, so. 372 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 5: Tis Yeah, we're both very creative people, and I think 373 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 5: we have strong opinions and most of the time when 374 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 5: I'm directing a movie, I'm also starring at it, and 375 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 5: she's always producing them and sometimes he's starring in them. 376 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 5: But you know when when you say cut and you 377 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 5: go to the next scene, or a show show coming 378 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 5: with notes that I may agree with or not to 379 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 5: agree with, and the same thing the other way around. 380 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 6: So it's it's really just a matter of understanding the 381 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 6: respect between us, and I respect his opinion. I might 382 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 6: think that he's wrong, but I still give him the 383 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 6: respect that he's due, and vice versa. I should point 384 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 6: out that you can get the book at Sorbo Studios 385 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 6: dot com.

We've been practicing it 401 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 6: and it's such an encouragement. And I know that, you know, 402 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 6: some people come into our house and they're like, oh, you. 403 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: Still have a tree up like that. We're not ashamed. 404 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 2: We just we really enjoy it. 405 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 6: There's a reason that we worship Geese Christ and I 406 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 6: think that it's a good thing to bring into the 407 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,959 Speaker 6: rest of your life. Oh and we also have a 408 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 6: new ornament this year for Christmas. That's part of our 409 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 6: Christmas Bundle.

You're always both of you are always working, 421 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 2: which I love, but you take time to play as well, 422 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 2: which is so important. 423 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: I play if I can. I play golf every morning 424 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 5: by golf Fast for any golfers out there, I do 425 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 5: eighteen holes an hour and a half, and I know 426 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 5: the guys are well, there's no. 427 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 4: Way I do. 428 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 6: And I laugh about playing because even when we're on vacation. 429 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: Right now, we're working. 430 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 2: But it's hard. It's hard to call this work right. 431 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 2: This is fun. 432 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 6: It's fun to visit with you, and it's fun to 433 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 6: to chat about the stuff that we have going on. Incidentally, 434 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 6: my new book Parents Guide to Homeschool is just dropped, 435 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 6: and so this is a great gift for parents who 436 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 6: are maybe young parents who haven't considered how they're planning 437 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 6: to educate their children. Homeschooling is the way to go. 438 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 6: It's the only way to go. And I will say 439 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 6: that till my dying breath. 440 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 2: I agree wholeheartedly. I homeschooled my son for a couple 441 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: of years, but I would not have a child in 442 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 2: public school these days. There's too much going on, and 443 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: homeschool is the only way to go. Really, what made 444 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 2: you want to speak out about that, Sam, I got 445 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 2: about thirty seconds left. But you're so involved in educating. Yeah, 446 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: I was very. 447 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 6: Blessed to finally realize that I would have forfeited my 448 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 6: relationship with my children had had I continued to send 449 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 6: them to school. And it really comes down to that 450 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 6: life is about relationships. It's not about academic prowess. It's 451 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 6: about relationships. And we have skewed our entire culture based 452 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 6: on the school system, to believe that success is money 453 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 6: and it's not. 454 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: Success is relationship. And you know we should know that 455 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: from the Bible. 456 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 4: We don't. 457 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 6: So this is the best way that I know how 458 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 6: to spread that knowledge and truth. 459 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: And we have high hopes President Trump will get rid 460 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 5: of public education. 461 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 2: Well, I was just going to ask you what are 462 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 2: your thoughts on that? Just quickly moving forward, how excited 463 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: are you about President Trump coming into office? 464 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 5: You know, we all know he won the last election 465 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty. Yes, I'm a voter fraud, I believe, 466 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 5: Come and give me a break. But the reality is, 467 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: I think the had to happen. They had to show 468 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 5: not only America, the rest of the world how bad 469 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 5: America is going with the leadership under the Democrat Party, 470 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 5: and now he's going to come in and all those 471 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 5: people that hate him because the media brainwashing him beliefs. 472 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 5: So they're going to have better lives, lower costs and 473 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 5: food lower and gas energy independence ready, safer border. But 474 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 5: you know what, behind closed doors, they'll admit it's good 475 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 5: from but they'll still complain about it when they get 476 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 5: a chance in public because they don't want admit. 477 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: That they're wrong. 478 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 2: And making America healthy again, which is really exciting for me, 479 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: Sam Sam and Kevin Sorbo, thank you so much for 480 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 2: joining me have fun scheme.

But how do 513 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 2: we know which doors to walk through? God often places 514 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 2: open doors before us, divine opportunities designed to lead us 515 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 2: into His purpose and fulfill our destiny. But these doors 516 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 2: often require faith and courage to step through, and sometimes 517 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 2: we miss the mark. Just as Esther was called for 518 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 2: such a time as this, we too have these moments. 519 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 2: We're stepping through an open door, and Nat could change everything. 520 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 2: Pastor Anthony Thomas joins us. Now, welcome, Pastor. 521 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 4: Good to see you, Chamaine. How you doing today? 522 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 2: I'm good. You know you are probably my number one 523 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,719 Speaker 2: most requested guest. Just wanted to let you know, so 524 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: anytime you want to come on, you're welcome. 525 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 4: Thank you, saman That's very sweet. 526 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 2: So you know, in the story of Esther we see 527 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: her face a moment where she had to step out 528 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: in faith and trust God's plan. How can we recognize 529 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 2: those for such a time as this moment in our 530 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 2: own lives. 531 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 4: It's a great question. There's a scripture, one of my 532 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 4: favorite ones, First Corinthians sixteen to nine, and the apostle 533 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 4: Paul said, for a great and effective door has been 534 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 4: opened to me and there are many adversaries. And I 535 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 4: was praying about twenty twenty five, twenty twenty four. God 536 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 4: told me it was going to be the year of 537 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 4: the throwdown, that it was going to be a continual 538 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 4: fight from beginning, and boy hasn't been. I was praying 539 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 4: about this next year, and he gave me that it's 540 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 4: going to be the year of the open Door. And 541 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 4: I believe that Esther is a type of the church. 542 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 4: She went through a lot of really difficult things and 543 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 4: a really horrific past that God brought her into her 544 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 4: destiny and into her purpose, and her purpose was much 545 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 4: bigger than she could have ever imagined. And I think 546 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,479 Speaker 4: it's very symbolic as we're leaving a very dark age 547 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 4: and time right now, and as Donald Trump our president, 548 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 4: we've supported from the beginning roph aside that we are 549 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 4: going to enter into a golden age. And I believe 550 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 4: that you look at different metals in the Bible. Ron's 551 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 4: was the medal of judgment, silver was the metal of redemption. 552 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 4: Gold is the medal of faith. And that's why the 553 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 4: Bible says our faith is like precious gold. So I 554 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 4: want to encourage I believe, like Esther, we are about 555 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 4: ready to move into a time and season for people 556 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 4: where God is going to bring you through open doors 557 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 4: that will unlock the destiny that God has for you. 558 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 2: Well, Anthony, I have to ask you. So Esther's courage 559 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 2: to walk through that door God opened for her saved 560 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: in entire nation. But how do we find the same 561 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: boldness when God calls us step out of our comfort zones. 562 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 4: That's a great question. One of my very favorite passages 563 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 4: in the entire Bibles John twelve twenty six, and Jesus 564 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 4: said this, He said, wherever I am at, my servant 565 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 4: will be also And Esther lived a life of humility, 566 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 4: and she lived a life of simply wanting to be 567 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 4: wherever the Lord led her. And that's one of the 568 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 4: most precious stories in the Bible because she went through 569 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 4: a lot of circumstances and seasons where I'm sure she 570 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 4: wanted to be somewhere else, but she learned to be 571 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 4: where the Lord was at. And whereever you're at where 572 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 4: the Lord's at, things are going to be amazing and 573 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 4: they're going to be supernatural. You cannot be in the 574 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 4: presence of Jesus and things be ordinary, boring, or not purposeful. 575 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 4: And so I think that's the key that our courage 576 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 4: is the fact that when we're at where Christ is at, 577 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 4: we can always find courage because who's standing next to us? 578 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 2: You know, I face trials and tribulations, and so has everyone. 579 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: But those challenges are are also where I found supernatural strength, 580 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 2: the strength that I never knew I could have. It 581 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 2: wasn't immediately at that moment, but I know that God 582 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 2: had a hand in all of those things that I 583 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,479 Speaker 2: had gone through, and I know that God's guiding us 584 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 2: to grow and trust. What advice would you give to 585 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 2: someone who is just feeling really uncertain about whether a 586 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 2: door in front of them is from God? 587 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 4: That's a great question, you know. I would always say 588 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 4: the Bible's clear, and James, it says when we lack wisdom, 589 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 4: to ask of Him and He'll give it to us 590 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 4: liberally and without reproach. Because the devil can open counterfeit doors. 591 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 4: That is very clear. In fact, many times they will 592 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: happen in the same season when God's about ready to 593 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 4: open a door. So I would encourage the viewers ask God, 594 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 4: spend some time and talk to them and say, Lord, 595 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 4: is this where you're leading me? And then a very 596 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 4: safe prayer. In Revelation, it says He opens doors that 597 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 4: no man shuts, and he shuts doors no man open. 598 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 4: I ask God sometimes, God, if this is not the 599 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 4: door for me, shut it, shut it clearly. And if 600 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 4: it is the open door, help me and move me 601 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 4: through it. And I have found God will supernaturally intervene 602 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 4: because he wants us to enter into those doors that 603 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 4: He's opened up for us. 604 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 2: You know, I'm going to just ask you, sorry to 605 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 2: put you on the spot, but would you say a 606 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 2: prayer for us going into twenty twenty five and opening 607 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 2: doors and for our country and President Trump and leading 608 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 2: us into making America great again and healthy again. 609 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I would be honored to Father. We thank you today, 610 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 4: and we thank you according to that passage that you 611 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 4: hold the keys of David and every door you open, 612 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 4: no man can shut. Every door you shut, no man 613 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 4: can open. We ask for our President Donald J. 614 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 2: Trump. 615 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 4: We asked for this nation, We asked for your people. God. 616 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 4: We're asking that you would lead us into the open doors. God. 617 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 4: We thank you that as we walk through those doors, God, 618 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 4: we enter into our God given destiny. And that's my 619 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 4: prayer God, as a nation, as our president as a people, God, 620 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 4: that we would move into our destiny. And God, let 621 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 4: every adversary that's been sent to block that be removed 622 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 4: right now. Let the path be smooth, and let your 623 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 4: name be glorified. We love you, and we bless you 624 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 4: and Jesus's mighty name. Amen. 625 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: Amen. I love that, and I thank you so much 626 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: for sharing that with me. And people might not realize, 627 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 2: but you also now have your series on you too, 628 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 2: is it Rumble Rumble? 629 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 4: It's on Rumble We got thrown off of YouTube. Yes, 630 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 4: it's on Rumble Tip of the Spirit Church and if 631 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 4: anyone wants to find us at Tip of the Spirit 632 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 4: Church dot org. But I just finished a series actually 633 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 4: on Pester and I think it would really bless some 634 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 4: people if you take the time to watch it. 635 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,239 Speaker 2: How can people you, Pastor Anthony, because I know that 636 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 2: there's very few pastors unfortunately, who speak the way you do. 637 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 2: I always say that if Ted was a pastor, he'd 638 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 2: probably be you. But you speak in a way that 639 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 2: is unconventional according to probably many pastors out there, a 640 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 2: majority of them. But this is exactly what we need. 641 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 2: We are tired of the milk toast. We want the 642 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: meat right. 643 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 4: Well, the main thing, Number one is prayer, I mean, 644 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 4: because there's a lot of attacks that go with when 645 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 4: you're on the front line. And then on our web page, 646 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 4: if anyone wants to financially support, there's a giving box. 647 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 4: I'm not under a denomination that cost me financially that 648 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 4: I have done that so that my voice is not 649 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 4: benevolent to someone. It's to the Lord and him alone, 650 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 4: I'll stand before. So I appreciate that Samaine and everyone 651 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 4: that's prayed that supported what we're doing. I honor that 652 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 4: and I thank them because this journey is awesome, but 653 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 4: it does not go without attacks, and it does not 654 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 4: go without costs. But it's a great honor to serve 655 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 4: Christ and I'm honored to do that. 656 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 2: And just in about a minute left, can you describe 657 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 2: for the people who are watching this for the first 658 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 2: time and aren't maybe they're new to reading the Bible 659 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: and understanding what Jesus is all about and understanding spiritual attacks, 660 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 2: can you describe that quickly what that might look like. 661 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 4: The greatest quote I've ever heard that sums up life 662 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 4: and the Bible and spiritual taxes this and I cannot 663 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 4: remember the author, but at touch my Hearty said, the 664 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 4: Bible is a love story written in the context of war, 665 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 4: and the further you try to follow Jesus, expect that 666 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 4: there will be opposition, and that can come in every 667 00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 4: type of attack, physical attax, emotional attacks, financial attacks, relational attacks. 668 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 4: The devil will attack anything in your life that he can, 669 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 4: especially if you're following Christ. But the awesome thing God 670 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 4: gives us authority to overcome all of his attacks. We 671 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 4: just have to learn how to use it. 672 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 2: I love that, and I'm sorry really quickly, like twenty 673 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 2: seconds you had brought this up, and I wanted to 674 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 2: circle back. How can we discern when you said we 675 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 2: have to discern whether or not it's God opening the 676 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 2: door or the enemy, how can we test that? 677 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 4: That's a great question. That simple answer is this. The 678 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 4: Holy Spirit inside of you will bear witness because he 679 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 4: knows exactly where God's trying to lead you. And so 680 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 4: when I'm asking God, I ask him number one for wisdom, 681 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 4: and then I follow the peace of God that's inside 682 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 4: of me. When I feel peace leave, and I know 683 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 4: God's telling me something's not right with this situation, and 684 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 4: so let the peace of God. The Bible says surpasses 685 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 4: or understanding guide does. When peace is leading you, you 686 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 4: know that the Holy Spirit's leading you to where God's 687 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 4: trying to take you.

You know the holidays are here. It's a 729 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 2: time of joy and celebration, and let's face it, indulgence. 730 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 2: You know, nearly forty percent of people make New Year's resolutions, 731 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 2: and maybe you're one of them, and you've set goals before. 732 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: I have, promising to lose weight or exercise more, or 733 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 2: maybe even to read the Bible. But how many times 734 00:38:55,400 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 2: have those resolutions just faded by February This year? I 735 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 2: want to help you make it different. Let's change this. 736 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 2: Let's make America healthy again. You know, our countries at 737 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 2: a crossroads, and leaders like President Trump and Robert F. 738 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior are working hard to make America great again. 739 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 2: But we got to make America healthy again. And let's 740 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 2: be honest. Change doesn't happen from the top down. It 741 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 2: starts with us, with you, with me, because we can't 742 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 2: make our families, our communities, our country stronger if we're 743 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 2: running on empty we can't lead, We can't serve or 744 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 2: fulfill our God given purpose if we're exhausted and sick 745 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,359 Speaker 2: or stuck in unhealthy patterns. Believe me, I know it's 746 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 2: not easy. In college, I struggled with my weight. I 747 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 2: was thirty pounds heavier than I am now, and I 748 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: tried everything and I felt defeated. I understand what that's like. 749 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: Then years later, I had toxic mold poisoning that nearly 750 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 2: killed me. I faced debilitating migraines, sickness, depression, and absolutely 751 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 2: moments of despair where I wondered if I could ever 752 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 2: feel whole again. But by God's grace and through small, 753 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 2: consistent changes, I turned my health around. And that's why 754 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 2: I wrote Abundantly Well, because I understand what it's like 755 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 2: to feel stuck, and I know how transformative it can 756 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 2: be to take control of your health and start living 757 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 2: the vibrant life you were creative for. So this isn't 758 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: just another health book. Abundantly Well is a forty day 759 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 2: journey rooted in faith and practical tips that will meet 760 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 2: you exactly where you are. It's designed for people who 761 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 2: don't have hours and hours to spend at the gym, 762 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 2: or who feel like they've tried every diet and nothing works. 763 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 2: This book isn't about extremes. It's a out balance. It's 764 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 2: about simple, doable steps that are going to help you 765 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 2: overcome your cravings. Trust me, I know what that's like. 766 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 2: I love Freedo's and I love chocolate, But you're going 767 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 2: to find energy you didn't think you had or you 768 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 2: ever could have, and you could feel better, really good, 769 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 2: and every single day will be pain free. Can you 770 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 2: imagine what that's going to be like. You know, we 771 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: don't have perfect conditions, and we can't wait for the 772 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 2: right time in our life. Maybe you're, you know, a 773 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,879 Speaker 2: parent of a young child and you're running around back 774 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 2: and forth to school and activities. I understand what that's like. 775 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 2: There's a season for everything, but you've got to put 776 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: your health first. The time to act is now. So 777 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 2: imagine waking up on New Year's Day knowing that you've 778 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 2: already taken the first steps toward a healthier, happier you. 779 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 2: Imagine how much better you're going to feel in twenty 780 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: twenty five, not just physically, but mentally. Do you ever 781 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 2: have those days? Today was one of those days for 782 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 2: me where I woke up, I have so much to do, 783 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 2: and I had an abundance of energy. I was abundantly well. 784 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 2: I am abundantly well. Not every day is like that, though, 785 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 2: I will be honest. But when I'm taking my supplements, 786 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 2: when I'm taking time to exercise, and I got to 787 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 2: tell you, I don't have an hour a day to 788 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 2: work out. I did a fifteen minute workout today and 789 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 2: a fifteen minute yesterday. That's it. But again, there are 790 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 2: seasons of our lives where we can do more. We 791 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,959 Speaker 2: can go for I don't know, maybe a two hour 792 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 2: walk on the beach, wouldn't that be nice? Sounds nice 793 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 2: right about now. But it's not just about physically looking 794 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 2: good so you can get into a bikini. I'm probably 795 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 2: not going to be doing that anytime soon. But it's 796 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 2: also about mental and emotional and spiritual health. And when 797 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 2: you commit to caring for the body that God gave you, 798 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 2: you'll see how things are going to change.
