Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just Rachel and Brown. Welcome to the table.

25
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: How are you?

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 6: I'm good and I'm so grateful for our guests today,

27
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 6: for their vulnerability and transparency to share, to share what

28
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 6: they've gone through, because it hasn't always been easy. And

29
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 6: you look at him now and you would never know

30
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 6: the struggle that they went through. But stories helped transform

31
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 6: people's lives. And when they authentically share, people are going

32
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 6: to find freedom and breakthrough in their marriages. And I

33
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 6: believe that a lot of people are going to be

34
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 6: encouraged today.

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: I believe that too.

36
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: In Cindy Murdhock, we love testimonies, don't we.

37
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 2: Well, I love testimonies. I was and you went through

38
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: a divorce.

39
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 7: But God brought someone else into my Prince came, He

40
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 7: came riding.

41
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, took my heart away.

42
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 7: And I know that God encourages all of us by

43
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 7: the stories of people that God has brought them through.

44
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 7: And I was thinking about when Jesus said to Peter,

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 7: now the enemy's going to really sift you.

46
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna pray for you.

47
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 7: So that when you come back, you will encourage your brothers.

48
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,240

49
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: of you watching, you've gone through a divorce, and I

50
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: want you to know God's not through.

Speaker 1: sharing your story. So just kind of go back to

72
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: the beginning. You met Kelly in high school.

73
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 8: Yep, she was seventeen. P K. I'm PK. Preacher's kid.

74
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 8: She was seventeen. I was eighteen, and when she opened

75
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 8: the door, I said, oh go, you're my wife. And

76
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 8: the old noahs because already had a couple of girlfriends oh,

77
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 8: and so that was kind of my iniquity always say

78
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 8: but God, but I knew, and it was interesting because

79
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 8: I would always tell her I love you, but I

80
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 8: like them, Yes, but thank God for deliverance.

81
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: And we're going to tell the story because it is

82
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: quite an amazing story. So you raised Catholic Kelly to

83
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: tell about this relationship and how it started you.

84
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: Fall in love?

85
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, I met him when he said you're my wife.

86
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 9: Of course I believed him, but grow woulden I'm seventeen

87
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 9: years old and he was so cute.

88
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 3: Oh yes, so cute I still is.

89
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 9: I'm like, yeah, absolutely, I believe you, and I was.

90
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 9: I think nine days later, I asked you, you know,

91
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 9: what are we doing? Because we saw for every day.

92
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 9: So I'm like, let's just, you know, ask me to

93
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 9: be your girlfriend. And he did and I said okay,

94
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 9: and so we started dating. But I knew he had

95
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 9: many other options. And I have to understanding I was

96
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 9: raised in a home where they were Catholic, but my

97
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 9: mom and Di divorce because of infidelity, and my mindset

98
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 9: was that my mom we just forgiven them they would

99
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 9: have stayed together. So you have to understand that background

100
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 9: on why I was so gracious before, what grace was

101
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 9: to him and his life. Thought, I'm like, if it

102
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 9: as long as i'm first, I'm okay with that. So

103
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 9: dated him that way and got pregnant before we went

104
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 9: to college.

105
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,640

00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 3: He was like, keep the baby. I promise I'll help you.

125
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: Isaiah is thirty two years young. Yeah, beautiful, and I said,

126
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: you can't imagine not having him, even though everything would

127
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: say there's no way you can fit this baby into

128
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: your life, and you decided to keep the baby.

129
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:42,679
Speaker 2: Was it easy?

130
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 9: No, it was very hard because my parents kicked me

131
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 9: off the house. They thought that if I got kicked out,

132
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 9: I'd have nowhere to go. But his parents were pastors,

133
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 9: so I moved in with his family, and that's how

134
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 9: I was forced into storefront pentecostal tampering, thumping, everybody's getting

135
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 9: the liver industry from being Catholic.

136
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: I didn't know what I mean, Dorothy, she did not

137
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: know what in the world she was walking into.

138
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 3: The next week.

139
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 9: And I was the one that I always said, They're

140
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 9: trying to push me down, and I'm like, I'm not

141
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 9: gonna fall. I'm not going to fall, and so I

142
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 9: was fighting them since it's the demon, you know, they

143
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 9: were trying to push me down, and that's I was

144
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 9: thrust into that life.

145
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: But that's where I got introduced to Jesus.

146
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 9: And at that time he was born again on fire,

147
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 9: changed his life, was living for God, stopped smoking weed,

148
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 9: stopped the women, stopped the drinking. For a season. I

149
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 9: got pregnant again with the second baby, and then I said,

150
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 9: you know, I don't want to look downb here.

151
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: You need to marry me. And we got married.

152
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 9: And that's when he said, you know what, I never

153
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 9: had fun and left the Lord for about five years.

154
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.

155
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: And I think we have that picture of when y'all

156
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: got married, both so beautiful. What in the world, Regie

157
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: is going on?

158
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: I mean, we have to.

159
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: Put it in perspective.

160
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: My my husband, who's the psychologist, said and you have

161
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: to remember, this is, you know, eighteen, nineteen, twenty year old.

162
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 3: We're talking about.

163
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: Their mindset is not that of a mature adult at

164
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: this point, right, So what happened? And what were your

165
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: parents saying, you know to you? Because all of a

166
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: sudden you have a wife and another kid on the

167
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,119
Speaker 1: way and all this responsibility.

168
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 8: It was very scary, you know, being I mean, I'm

169
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 8: already still trying to figure out who I am, you know,

170
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 8: so I'm going through what I call an identity crisis,

171
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 8: because you can grow up in church and still not

172
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 8: know who you are, and especially growing up in the church.

173
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 8: And I appreciate my parents, but it was more inspiration

174
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 8: and not a lot a whole lot of information. And

175
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 8: so over time, though I fell in love with God's word,

176
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 8: you know, got my life, got my footing, began to

177
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 8: find out really who I am. And God didn't No

178
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 8: Revelation one and six says that I'm a priest and

179
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 8: the King. You know, I didn't know that I was

180
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 8: fearfully and wonderfully made, you know. And so when I

181
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 8: began to really get to fall in love with the Word,

182
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 8: I begin to make some adjustment to my life.

183
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: That took about five years. But there was one event

184
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: that took place. And I always say this to people, Now,

185
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: don't pray this prayer, Dorothy.

186
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 2: Unless you really mean it. The Lord will take you

187
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 2: up on it. Whatever it takes.

188
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: You can pray the whatever it takes, takes, you know,

189
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: whatever it takes.

190
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 2: That's a serious prayer.

191
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: But at the time, you were tell everybody what you

192
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: were doing, and you got to that point, Yes, I

193
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: got to this is like almost at the end of

194
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: the five years of you believe in this is.

195
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 9: This is yeah, close to the five years of me

196
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 9: believing for him.

197
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 2: So how are you living? Tell everybody, we're living.

198
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 9: On Section eight housing, roach infested apartments, on food stamps.

199
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 9: Didn't have any communication with my parents or his because

200
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 9: we left the church, so they of course let us

201
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 9: go out there. Best thing they could have did. But

202
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 9: at the time we had no support and I had

203
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 9: radically changed my life and gave my life to Jesus.

204
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: I had an encounter with God.

205
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: That's so good.

206
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was. We were following.

207
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 9: I knew my marriage was falling apart, and I had

208
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 9: the babies.

209
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 3: He was never home.

210
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 9: You'd be gone for weekends at a time, and I

211
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 9: knew my world was falling apart. My Jesus was attached

212
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,479
Speaker 9: to him, so if if.

213
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: He was going to church, I would go. If he

214
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 3: didn't go, I wouldn't go.

215
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 9: So I literally idle worshiped him and I was going

216
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 9: to church, but didn't have a relationship with Jesus. Until

217
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 9: I felt like I was losing my mind. I dropped

218
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 9: the babies off to the Grandmas. I wanted to be

219
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 9: a responsible parent. Came home and started walking back and forth,

220
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 9: and the devil was telling me, your life is terrible.

221
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 9: Nothing's here, and your parents are right, and all the.

222
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: Things and those are the voices of the enemy. Yes,

223
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: the condemnation that tell you you're worthless.

224
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 2: You made too many mistakes.

225
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: There's no way God could love you, There's no way

226
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: he could forgive you. He didn't have any purpose for

227
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: your life. Those are all the wrong voices, So do

228
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: not believe those voices.

229
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 2: So when you heard those voices, what did you do?

230
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: Because I'd been going to church, I remember to call.

231
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 9: On Jesus, and I said, Jesus helped me, and I

232
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 9: felt in Russian and I literally felt the arms of

233
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 9: Jesus hugged me. So I fill about poet spear. No

234
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 9: one can ever tell me that did not happen. That

235
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 9: was my personal experience with Jesus and my life. My

236
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 9: life radically changed. So I began to pray, be my

237
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 9: word never missed. Church changed my whole atmosphere of the home,

238
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 9: stopped my drinking, stopped the partying lifestyle, with being getting

239
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 9: to clean up. I talked to the mothers of the

240
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 9: church because I would always lie and say he was

241
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 9: at work, even though I didn't know where he was

242
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 9: on the weekend, but I knew to cover him, and

243
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 9: I would The mothers of the church would say, get

244
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 9: anointing oil and just anoint his head so all I.

245
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 3: Could find all I could afford. Was cooking Greece.

246
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 9: I couldn't get the olive oil, so I got to like.

247
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 8: Crisco and be like, I'll wake up with crosses on

248
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 8: my head. I'm wondering why my feet are greasy. I'm like,

249
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 8: what mean is this? And what I love about my wife,

250
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 8: she's such a woman of faith. She was supposed to

251
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 8: move to Virginia and take a nine to one operator

252
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 8: position in Richmond, Virginia, because that's where her family's from.

253
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 8: Because she worked for the Fetish Police Apartment in Arizona

254
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 8: for thirteen years. And when I got home to our apartment,

255
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 8: I said, I thought you were leaving with the three kids,

256
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 8: and she said, I had a dream the Holy Spirit

257
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 8: told me you're going to be a preacher. I can't leave.

258
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 8: And I told her, listen, you got you got this thing, twisted.

259
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 3: Dream.

260
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, this whole preach, the thing is not going

261
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 8: to happen. I didn't know three four years later, getting

262
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 8: in trouble would push me and thrust me into my purpose.

263
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: So tell the prayer that you prayed. And this was

264
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: probably like what towards them.

265
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 9: Four years let's say, four years, ten months to where

266
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 9: we're at now.

267
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 3: And I said, Lord, do whatever it takes.

268
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 9: To save him, because I was so frustrated, so angry,

269
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 9: because you you know, I'm walking in the spirit, walking

270
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 9: my face, and I know God graced me for that season,

271
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 9: but I was getting weary, so I said, God, do

272
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 9: whatever it takes to save him. And one night I

273
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 9: was working as a dispatcher.

274
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 3: Nine one nine one.

275
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, I get a call for armed robbery and process.

276
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 3: I get the.

277
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 9: Canine unit, the air unit, the perimeter set up. We're

278
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 9: chasing after them, and I actually ended up arresting my

279
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 9: own husband. What he's supposed to be watching my kids

280
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 9: at home.

281
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 8: I would call my sister, she would watch the kids

282
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 8: while I'm mining, and I had.

283
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 9: No idea because I work nights. So this is three

284
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 9: in the morning waiting.

285
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 6: How did you find out?

286
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 9: Well, I was dispatching. I knew because they get they

287
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 9: when they arrest people, they give you their name, and

288
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 9: they give him name and birthday, and I said ten nine,

289

Speaker 2: the whatever it whatever.

299
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 3: So he's arrested.

318
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 9: He gets arrested, and I knew, well we got him,

319
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 9: you know, And he went to He was in jail

320
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 9: for three.

321
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 8: Days and then when that third day, I'm reading them

322
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 8: by Bissy.

323
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 3: On the third day, Jonah.

324
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 8: I said, Lord, if you're give me out of this,

325
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 8: I'll serve you three seconds later, they said, still, roll up.

326
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 8: And so I'm like, wait a minute. To God at

327
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 8: the bottom Bunck, I asked him, I said, did they

328
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 8: say still? He said yeah, I think so. So I

329
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 8: go up front. They said, yeah, you've been bonded out.

330
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 8: And so I get in the parking lot and there

331
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 8: she is with my parents and I looked at my

332
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 8: dad and I said, I'm ready to be a preacher.

333
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 8: I said, I've been running from God and I'm ready

334
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 8: to get them.

335
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: Then what was different about this time.

336
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 8: Seven to twenty one years?

337
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 4: Wow?

338
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, when they said when you said that prayer, it

339
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: wasn't just to be rescued. You really meant this is

340
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: my surrender body. I'll do what you want me to do.

341
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 8: Because I was. I was a horrible husband, but like

342
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 8: she mentioned earlier, I was a great father. And I'm like,

343
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 8: wait a minute. My kids are three, two, and my

344
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 8: daughter Stella was probably seven or eight months old. She'll

345
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 8: be thirty here real soon this next month, matter of fact,

346
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 8: and so I'm like, I'm going to be missing out

347
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 8: on my kids. So I'm like, I got to get

348
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 8: it together. And so I begin to make those adjustments

349
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 8: in my life, and I stopped drinking. I stopped smoking.

350
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: When your dad say, when you said you want to.

351
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 8: Preach, I said, he said, well, you and Kelly cleaned

352
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 8: my church for a year. And he said on Monday

353
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 8: and Thursdays. And he said, and then I'll let you preach.

354
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: So instead of handing you a mike, he gave me

355
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 2: a mob. He gave you a mob.

356
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: That's right, and I love it.

357
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 9: Here one for free, yeah.

358
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 8: Free, ever got paid. You would take our three kids

359
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 8: and we would lay them in the altar area and

360
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 8: they would sleep, and while we would clean the church

361
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 8: for hours, and you.

362
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: Would do it too, even though you were working full time.

363
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: I was, I was.

364
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 9: But even God set it up then that we knew

365
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 9: were a package deal. So I felt, if he does it,

366
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 9: I'm going to do it. And we did it together.

367
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: And so wow, working through that year of doing that

368
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: and just submitting to your father who bonded you out,

369
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: and then of course you to court and then.

370
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 2: You get a real miracle.

371
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, real miracle.

372
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: And did the judge know that you had returning your

373
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: life around in all or did you know what happened?

374
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 8: I don't think he knew, but because it took like

375
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 8: a year, almost a year and a half for me

376
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 8: to get sentenced to the four years probation. And he

377
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 8: looked at me. He said, listen, you're very familiar with

378
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 8: criminal activity, but this was my first felony. And he said,

379
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 8: if you run a stop sign during these four years,

380
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 8: if you flunk one drug test during these four years,

381
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 8: you're done.

382
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 3: We're going to visual into prison, jail, Prince.

383
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: So you say that probation and that accountability saved your.

384
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 8: Life, Oh, absolutely absolutely, And then she'll tell you my

385
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 8: probation officer would come to our home.

386
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 9: Yeah, random all the time, check searches because they were

387
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 9: trying to get him, you know, because he had a record.

388
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 3: He wasn't a good guy.

389
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 9: Although he was a psychiatric tech by day or robber

390
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 9: by night. Yeah, but that just shows your mind is

391
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 9: so when you don't know who you are, you'll do anything.

392
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 9: And so those four years he couldn't go out, he

393
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 9: had to be had a curfew, he couldn't do drugs,

394
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 9: he couldn't drink, had to get permission to.

395
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 3: Do everything, and that's permission.

396
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 9: That was the boundaries he needed.

397
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 3: To totally clean up his life.

398
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 8: Absolutely.

399
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

400
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 6: What was the process like for you to forgive him, like,

401
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 6: was it just like the supernatural grace?

402
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 3: Or were you like what the heck were you?

403
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: Was there some counseling like, No, that back then counseling

404
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: wasn't it was It wasn't to know the al and

405
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: be free.

406
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 3: That's right.

407
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 9: They had the altar and say Jesus exactly. But no,

408
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 9: I when when we were going through a process within

409
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 9: our marriage, I learned how to forgive him because I

410
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 9: realized that God had forgiven me. So when I realized

411
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 9: that God forgive forgiving me for all the stuff I've done,

412
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 9: the stuff that I know and the stuff nobody else knows,

413
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 9: how could I not extend forgiveness to him? You know,

414
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 9: I understood, you have understand He married me telling me

415
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 9: I'll probably never be faithful. He married me telling me

416
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 9: I'll probably always have other women in my life. So

417
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 9: I knew I was so women. When you get married,

418
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 9: you got to know his better and his worse. And

419
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 9: I married his worse. So when it came up, I

420
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 9: didn't excuse his behavior, but I understood it, and I

421
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 9: knew that there was something missing within him. Because I

422
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 9: always saw greatness in him. I knew he'd be an amazing.

423
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 8: Lead were always tell me, why are you hanging out

424
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 8: with all these thugs? She was like, don't you see

425
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 8: You're better?

426
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 3: Don't match.

427
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 8: I would be like, no, I don't see it, No,

428
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 8: you don't match.

429
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 9: And so I just believed in him supernaturally, and I said,

430
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 9: you know what, I just know that God can do

431
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 9: anything with your life, especially when I have that dream

432
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 9: of him preaching, not past oring, but preaching, and I

433
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 9: knew that he wasn't It wasn't him.

434
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 3: I was fighting.

435
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 9: It was a spirit It's a spiritual battle, spiritual warfare.

436
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 9: So that's why I was able to go to God

437
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 9: and say, Lord, I know in the spirit he's yours

438
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 9: and it's his flesh. But God give me the grace,

439
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 9: give me the strength to keep on loving him. And

440
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 9: by the grace of God, I did so.

441
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 1: But later counseling would come in. Yes, and that was

442
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: an important part of what God needed to heal in

443
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: your marriage, how to do therapy. But one year of

444
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: the MOP, then what.

445
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 2: Happened with the dad?

446
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 8: And then I finally got a mic and a message

447
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 8: called And what did you think of it?

448
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 11: Oh?

449
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 3: I was amazed. I knew he'd be awesome.

450
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 9: I was one of those always believed it him, you'd

451
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 9: be great, and it was fantastic. And then you know,

452
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 9: my husband's not ashamed of that.

453
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 3: He's justle sick.

454
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 9: And he was very hard from to read the Bible.

455
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 9: And I say, honey, I just wish I could remember scripture.

456
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 9: And this guy has like literally memorized the Word of God,

457
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 9: like it's amazing how he just spits them out.

458
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 8: I've got worked hard these twenty eight years just memory.

459
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,959
Speaker 8: But he said in this word that he'll bring all

460
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 8: things back to your remembrance. And so we've been into

461
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 8: her and I with fast a lot, Like we're talking

462
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 8: three days, five days. I've been did twenty one days

463
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 8: with no food. Yes, because I just really wanted to

464
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 8: fall in love with God. So I'm just grateful for

465
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 8: what he's done. And one thing I will say about

466
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 8: my wife, I can remember to answer your question too.

467
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 8: I knew Grace kicked in because there was a time

468
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 8: where I wouldn't come home for two or three days.

469
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 8: I looked at the bathtub one time and she bleached

470
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 8: all my clothes. And I looked at the toilet and

471
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 8: my toothbrush was floating in the toilet. Thank God, she

472
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 8: wasn't home.

473
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 9: I was tired, I'm speaking and tired of that day.

474
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 8: But then months later I come home two three days

475
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 8: later and she's like, what do you want for dinner?

476
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 8: And I'm like, and then my clothes are lost, and

477
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 8: I'm like, Okay, she's going to kill me. Oh she

478
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 8: set me up. So now I'm super a while.

479
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 9: You know, during that time, the Holy Spirit will really

480
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 9: give you guidance and how to handle things. And it

481
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 9: would be the Holy Spirit that say, are in his

482
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 9: clothes and I'm literally getting his clothes ready for the

483
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 9: weekend when he's going to spend time with the side chick.

484
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 9: And I knew that, and he would deliterally the Holy

485
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 9: Spirit say make his food, make us run his bath water.

486
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 9: This is all grace living. And I know it was

487
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 9: for me. It may not be for everybody, but this

488
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 9: was what God instructed me to do.

489
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 1: And there may be people watching who did something similar.

490
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: But you know, you can't make that person make the

491
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: right choice. At some point, God would would have released

492
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: you had he not changed right.

493
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 9: And Joni, I wish, I wish I could say my

494
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 9: husband turned around with my prayers or because he loved

495
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 9: me so much, but the truth is how to get arrested,

496
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 9: how to face twenty one years. That's what made him

497
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 9: minus life up when I did that. Whatever it takes,

498
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 9: prayer I.

499
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 2: Want you just said, take a moment.

500
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: We're going to pause for just a second, Pastor Reggie,

501
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: and just lead someone to Jesus that doesn't know Jesus.

502
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: Just a simple prayer will repeat after you.

503
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 8: Say, Father, forgive me of my sins. Come into my heart,

504
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 8: and I thank you, thank you that Jesus and Jesus

505
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 8: died for me. I thank you for his resurrection. Thank

506
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 8: you for because of his resurrection, I am now saved.

507
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 3: I am now saved that I'm free from.

508
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 2: My past and free from my past.

509
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 8: In Jesus' name, Jesus.

510
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 3: Amen, Amen, Jesus.

511
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 1: You know that prayer, Kelly, is so powerful for those

512
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: that prayed it, and for you that day when you

513
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: said help me Jesus. You didn't even have any more

514
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: to the prayer except help me Jesus.

515
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 2: He met you where you were, and you had a person.

516
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: You no longer went through your husband or your mother

517
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: in law or your father in law or the church.

518
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: It was it was between you and God at that point.

519
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 9: Right, Yes, and he meets you anywhere. I tell people

520
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 9: all the time, I wasn't at church, the music wasn't going,

521
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 9: the lights were dim. I was alone at my worst

522
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 9: place out and he's a very present help in time

523
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 9: of trouble. And I was in trouble and he showed up.

524
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 9: And it's really a miracle. There's nothing God cannot do. Yeah,

525
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 9: there's nothing.

526
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the church. So you started the church

527
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: and paycheck. Well, tell everybody what you started and where

528
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: you are now.

529
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, we started and they swapped me slash Fleet Market

530
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 8: with thirty seven people. Ninety three people came to our

531
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 8: first service, and that was on January second, two thousand

532
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 8: and five, and then the next Sunday, thirty seven people

533
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 8: came back out of the ninety three. So I was

534
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 8: preaching the more chairs than people, but we stayed encouraged.

535
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 8: And now here we are twenty years later. You know,

536
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 8: we've passed their thousands of people. And it's interesting. During

537
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 8: our tenth year, God blessed us with ten acres that

538
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 8: we were able to purchase, and now we have a

539
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 8: church in the facility that can hold almost thirteen hundred

540
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 8: pe people.

Speaker 2: I mean you hear your story like date.

558
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 9: You can help us now, you know, we didn't know

559
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 9: that our ministry was going to be so centered around marriage.

560
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 9: If it really started organically and innocently. A gentleman named

561
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 9: Leo Gossage came to us and said, you need to

562
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 9: talk about marriage, And honestly, he said, African American leaders

563
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 9: need to talk more about marriage. And we stepped out

564
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 9: and did our third year ministry.

565
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 8: And actually our first year and we were only married

566
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 8: for twelve years. The church was one years old, and

567
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 8: she mentioned Leo Gossage. He's with the Lord now, but

568
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 8: he challenged us to really pour into marriages and.

569
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 9: We started talking about it every quarter and people loved

570
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 9: our story. We didn't know our story would be so

571
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 9: enjoyable because when you're walking through, which is what we did,

572
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 9: but now we see it's remarkable and so our.

573
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: Trade could be a movie and.

574
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 3: At least at least on two B.

575
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 9: So we just started organically talking about So our family

576
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 9: is very family based. We're about families. Married, single, divorce

577
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 9: doesn't matter, and we do that. So we have marriage

578
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 9: conferences and every Friday we encourage our couples to date

579
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 9: and go out.

580
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 3: He takes me out every single Friday.

581
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 2: But we do date too, don't Yeah, we do that

582
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 2: kind of date. So we're gonna go.

583
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 3: To a break.

584
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: When we come back, we're gonna pray over all of

589
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 2: You had when a hurricane is tearing through your life.

596
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: your marriage better from a to zy quickly.

597
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 2: The Lord gave you the book?

598
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: And what kind of impact has it had, Kelly, A

599
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: great impact.

600
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 9: It's really easy, it's simplified. We have a paragraph for

601
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 9: each letter of the alphabet, three words that we have

602
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 9: and I figure life is hard enough.

603
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 3: We don't need to sit down and read.

604
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 9: And let's be honest, our men don't particularly read that book,

605
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 9: so you read to them and that and it has

606
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 9: activities that go along with everything. So like for affirmation,

607
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 9: you know, you learn that you build each other up, obviously,

608
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 9: but the activity is when you're out in public purposely

609
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 9: or firm your husband or wife in front of people.

610
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 9: I think sometimes we don't do that, you know. And

611
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 9: it's just every every letter, every word has an activity

612
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 9: attached to it.

613
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: I love that as I appreciate a firm, attentive be

614
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: is Feld believe let me see is compromise, celebrate consistency.

615
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

616
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 1: I mean so it's just a neat little book that

617
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,400
Speaker 1: you can do together. And I wonder, Kelly, if you would,

618
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: just as we leave the air today, if you would

619
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: pray for whoever that is just watching that can relate

620
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: and it's hurting.

621
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 2: Give them hope.

622
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Father.

623
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 9: I just thank you God for the person that's watching

624
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 9: right now. Lord, I thank you God that their steps

625
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 9: were ordered, that this is not an accident, but they

626
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 9: were asking God, give me an answer. God, give me

627
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 9: somebody that can relate to me that I can understand

628
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 9: I'm going through. And I believe by faith that you

629
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 9: are the one that is watching. You're watching right now

630
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 9: on purpose, for purpose. I know what it's like to

631
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 9: have a marriage that feels destroyed, but God can repair it.

632
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 9: I know what it feels like to have a marriage

633
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 9: that will never be restored, but God is a restorer,

634
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 9: He could put things back together again.

635
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 3: Put God first. Know that Jesus loves you.

636
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 9: With an undying love, and know that nothing is impossible

637
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 9: with Him.

638
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 3: So by faith, I attach my faith to yours and

639
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 3: know that it is done in Jesus' name. Amen.

640
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: Everybody said Amen, well, we're out of time. Won't you

641
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 1: remember that Jesus work on the cross released the power

642
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: to restore even the most broken relationships when he did

643
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: that at Calvary, when he shed his blood for our sins,

644
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: he paid the price for all sin of all humankind

645
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: and made a way for us to again have that

646
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: personal relationship with God where we can come to the

647
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: Father and say Jesus, and he hears us, and he

648
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: wants to talk to us. He wants to interact with us,

649
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: he wants to be in our lives. He wants a

650
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 1: personal relationship with all of us. So, no matter how

651
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,119

Speaker 13: his sister was a missionary, and his brother was a

710

712
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 3: And they said it wasn't us.

713
00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 13: It was the grandparents who started praying and stockpiling for

714
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 13: the great grandchildren that they had never yet met, and

715
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 13: those prayers have been visited down upon our children.

716
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:07,920

00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,160

Speaker 7: They showed us something about living for the Lord and

738
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 7: rejoicing that I had never seen.

00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they danced and sang.

741
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 7: Now, honestly, it was amazing how you impacted the body

742
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 7: of Christ. You got us out of religions skirt instead.

743
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,600

Speaker 2: Please welcome, Philip Cameron. Welcome to Have.

747
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 4: You watched this program. I've never been this the first

748
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 4: time on table to Talk, and I think one of

749
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 4: these days when I make it.

750
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 2: Listen, Philip, we go back so far.

751
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: I mean, we go back to my first child being born,

752
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: my second child being born, Rachel was born in Montgomery, Alabama,

753
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: and you and Chrissy and.

754
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 4: Fifty years next year.

755
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: Wow, wow, fifty that is amazing. I remember we came

756
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: to your house because they lived down the street from us,

757
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: and it was you know, she made some hot tea

758
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: that's what you drink in Scotland, and then she put

759
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: some milk in it and I'm like, oh wow, you

760
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: put milk in and it tasted really good, and I

761
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: was like, I've never done that before.

762
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 3: Do you remember that that's.

763
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 4: Drink teas with milk and shore.

764
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was so good.

765
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: Well, you know, for generation, Philip Cameron's family battled alcoholism

766
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: until God rewrote their story. Today he's going to share

767
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: how God redeemed his household and why no one is

768
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: too far gone for salvation. And we really want to

769
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: focus today on those of you that are believing for

770
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: a loss of loved one to come to the Lord,

771
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: and we want to encourage you. Some of you are

772
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: watching right now. You know you just don't even know

773
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: what's going on. No, no, no, no, I don't. But

774
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: God does, and he loves you, and he loves that

775
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: loved one, and your prayers are powerful, and we're just

776
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 1: going to encourage you to believe for them to be

777
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: saved and come to the Lord, or if they've gotten

778
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: away from God, that they would come back in.

779
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 2: Relationship with God. And Philip, can we believe for that today?

780
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 4: Absolutely? It's a well of God. More importantly about me

781
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 4: wishing that were to happen. What you could understand is

782
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 4: that is the explicit will of God that none should perish. Yes,

783
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 4: when God, when God set out to the deem mykind,

784
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 4: he didn't do it with diamonds. He didn't say, well,

785
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 4: let's get a bite with oil. The value system that

786
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 4: God sees for redemption is for God soul of the

787
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 4: world that he gave his only so God's God's value

788
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 4: system is totally wrapped up in family. So I can't

789
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 4: sit at that table and talk to God about his

790
00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 4: power because I've got no power come to him or wealth.

791
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 4: I can't talk. But he's a dad and I'm a dad,

792
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 4: and I love my kids, maybe not so much as

793
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 4: he loves his son. But so when God sees us,

794
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 4: he looks us to the lens of the family. And

795
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 4: so I just I just encourage someone watching today and

796
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 4: you're thinking, you know, my family never gets saved. We

797
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 4: were a bunch of drunks in Scotland with no hope,

798
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 4: absolutely no hope, and two young boys came from a

799
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 4: Bible school in England and preached in someone's bedroom. They

800
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 4: couldn't rent a room building, so they rented this guy

801
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 4: let them use the bedroom to get the table, the chest,

802
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 4: the drawers and the bed out and stuff. And the

803
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 4: ninety six converts in the back of beyond in Scotland,

804
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 4: and sixty seven of them are camerons. Because my uncle

805
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 4: started praying seven years save my family, wouldn't quit. And

806
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 4: the power that you have in your life to say

807
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 4: to the devil, get out of my family. When you

808
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 4: resist the devil. He's got to flee from you. So

809
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 4: it's totally in God.

810
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 1: So tell us that a little bit of the history

811
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: of the Cameron family in Scotland.

812
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 4: Well, every every generation for two hundred years was a drunkard.

813
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 4: I'm the first Cameron that has never tasted alcohol.

814
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 2: So for two hundred years, totally.

815
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 4: Lost, hated by a whole town. I mean we were

816
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 4: the rival riser. Yes, we were the folk you crossed

817
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 4: the street and no one wanted to talk to us.

818
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 4: And my uncle Michael went up to the was subscripted

819
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 4: to go up and break an American boat that had

820
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 4: been repeeded by the Nazis off the coast of Scotland.

821
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 4: And they broke this metal boat up and put all

822
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 4: the iron back onto the onto a train down to

823
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:50,320
Speaker 4: England to remake for weapons. And he took the weekend.

824
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 4: You get a pass and across the mainland a mile

825
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 4: off the coast, and you'd get a bus to the

826
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 4: bar and get drunk the whole weekend. And then when

827
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 4: he didn't drink, you would take back with him across

828
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 4: to this god feeding island of Calvinists, I mean, you know,

829
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 4: and terrorized them. And one day doing this he came

830
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 4: from the island to the mainland and waiting for a

831
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 4: bus to come. And there's a cup of tea. You

832
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 4: orders a cup of tea and a salt and pepper

833
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 4: shaker picks up this piece of paper for God, soul

834
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 4: of the world, that he gave his only begotten son,

835
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 4: and the wairess came up with her tracked her witness.

836
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 4: We are the modern gospel tract. We are the one

837
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 4: that comes and sits in people's living room and say, Hi,

838
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 4: we're here.

839
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: You think about a little piece of paper broke broke?

840
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,839
Speaker 4: He never heard the gospel, never.

841
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 2: Been What did say when she came over, Well, he

842
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: was crying.

843
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 4: He was reading this Forgod at twenty one and he's shaking.

844
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 4: And she says, are your kiss? Are you saved? And

845
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 4: we come from a fishing town, so you know it

846
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 4: saved as a boat. And he looked up and he says, oh,

847
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 4: I'm saved. And he says, what's these words? And she

848
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 4: says that's the Bible, Son't you obviously didn't know what

849
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,719
Speaker 4: it meant? And she says a book. God wrote a

850
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 4: book to mankind. He said, well, where can they get

851
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 4: this book from? She says, well, if you go into Wick,

852
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 4: which is the big town, she says, go down to

853
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 4: the Krakascol and the church has column and they've got

854
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 4: a book room down in the basement. You can buy one.

855
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 4: And he went in and but his wages on the

856
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 4: on the disk bought all the Bibles. He could get

857
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 4: back to the bus, back to the drawing boat, and

858
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 4: walk around the entire island of Strama, knocking on people's doors, saying,

859
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,359
Speaker 4: I just met a band culture.

860
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 3: From one verse of one versus script.

861
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 4: So what I'm what I'm saying is the power of this,

862
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 4: the will of God for salvation is so is so intense.

863
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 4: He gave his boy to die. And if he's willing

864
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 4: to give his boy to die for us, then if

865
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 4: you if you're watching the day and your son's breaking

866
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 4: your heart, boy, he loves you, and he loves your family.

867
00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 4: Without love that will never let you go. So seven

868
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 4: years past, they try to abuse him, they mean him

869
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 4: trying to break his will, and two young boys can't

870
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 4: walk town ninety six converts sixty seven.

871
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 6: Given your family's response, yeah, for your uncle's.

872
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 4: Well, when he came in first, oh Rachel, they hated him,

873
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 4: hated everything about him, tried to break his will. Would

874
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 4: come in and switch on the radio in those days.

875
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 2: Would that be Simon, that would be.

876
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 4: Michael, that's Michael, Yes, Simon, it was my dad. He's

877
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 4: his younger brother. So he come home from his work.

878
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 4: He is now the mom from hes back working and

879
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 4: my dad would come home from school and walk past

880
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 4: his bedroom and Uncle Michael would come straight home from

881
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 4: from his work for lunch, eat his lunch into his

882
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 4: bedroom and my dad walked past it. Hear my uncle

883
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 4: Michael saying that Simon saves Simon. Jesus please save Simon.

884
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 2: And Simon didn't like that.

885
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, Well, my dad was drafted into the army.

886
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 4: My mom and dad were having a baby that was sixteen,

887
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 4: and he went lately and could the wine and booze

888
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 4: and stuff my mom. The baby died in my mom's

889
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 4: arms at three days of age, and my mom wanted

890
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 4: to see her baby again. And that's how that's the whole. So,

891
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 4: while my dad was in Italy, these two young boys

892
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 4: came to our retown and and so my mother funny

893
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 4: and because she works here, my mom, her grandma, was

894
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 4: not a Christian girl. My mother was raised Anglican so

895
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 4: she said, what Chrissy needs is some from some religion.

896
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 4: So my mom invited my Auntie Christy, Leslie's grandma, to

897
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 4: go and hear these two young preachers.

898
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: Leslie works for us.

899
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, so Leslie. My mom got saved and my

900
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 4: Auntie Christie got saved the same night. But your dad,

901
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 4: so he came back. My mom wrote and says, I've

902
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 4: given my heart to Jesus. And my dad thought my

903
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 4: mom had given had fallen over. I called Jesus. He

904
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 4: would have nothing to do with this. So my mom

905
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,919
Speaker 4: wrote him three times a day about what Jesus could

906
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 4: do for them and the piece he could give them

907
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 4: in And they were living in a twelve six wooden

908
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 4: shack at this time.

909
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 2: And he was resisting for a long time.

910
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 4: He came home, stopped going to church, beat her if

911
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 4: she prayed, if if she ever caught with a Bible,

912
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 4: she would would slap her around, forced to go to

913
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 4: the bar, and she just wouldn't quit. And one particular.

914
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 2: Day, how long did it take?

915
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:27,399
Speaker 4: So seven years?

916
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 2: Another so.

917
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 4: He's working in a sawmill with his brothers who are

918
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 4: now all saved, and he's working in this big thirty

919
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 4: inch saw and he had a huge fight with my

920
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 4: mother and I'm done with you. I'm done with this.

921
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 4: This religion nonsense has ruined my life. So he's back

922
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 4: at work and he's putting in the wood at this

923
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 4: big saw. Looked up at the clock. It was two

924
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 4: o'clock and he's cussing, hitting my mother, hating God, and

925
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 4: he's shoving this saw, this wood, the saw, and he

926
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 4: looked up and Summon hit him and began to cry

927
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 4: and he started shaking, and another brother, John walked past

928
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 4: and says, Simon, throw you. He said, then I can,

929
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 4: And then I can. I don't know, I don't know,

930
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 4: And he says, get off that saw, man, you're gonna

931
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 4: cut your hands off. So they took him up and

932
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,720
Speaker 4: carried him up to this little tea room that office

933
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 4: they had, and sent for his mom, my granny, and

934
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 4: she says, what's wrong with your Simon? And then I can,

935
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 4: Then I can, And they put him in a car

936
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 4: and drove him back to my mother and carried him

937
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 4: into the shack and my mother says, what's wrong with

938
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,760
Speaker 4: your Simon? And then I can? And then he stopped

939
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 4: and looked at my mother and he says, Wendy I'm

940
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 4: nay worthy, I'm not worthy. I'm there worthy, Wendy, I'm

941
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,960
Speaker 4: there worthy, I'm may worthy. And my mother, after being beaten,

942
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 4: if she ever talked about this, she looked at me.

943
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,879
Speaker 4: She said, Simon, I know what's wrong with you. You're under

944
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 4: the conviction of the Holy Ghost. And instead of beating her,

945
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 4: he looked and and she says, if you call upon

946
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 4: the name of the Lord, you're going to be saved.

947
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 4: And he thought it meant shout call. So he's lying.

948
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 4: Jesus tuk me, Jesus stalk me, and he took him wow,

949
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,840
Speaker 4: and he was born again. I watched Jonastine cry a

950
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 4: bunch of times. So my father said he remember when

951
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 4: the first wave of forgiveness hit him? Yes, yes, And

952
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 4: he said the lights were turned on double power. The

953
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 4: birds were singing that Simon Cameron had been reconciled with God.

954
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, so good. And how old were you

955
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 2: when your dad got said.

956
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,959
Speaker 1: I was too, so you probably don't remember that much

957
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: about what was going on.

958
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,280
Speaker 4: No, No, the dad I knew was a lunatic. For Jesus,

959
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 4: we preached that a corps actually did preach to a corpse.

960
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 2: And I mean he went from one extreme to the other.

961
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 1: Yes, And that's what happens a lot of times when

962
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: when you surrender your heart and your life to God

963
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 1: and you get online with the King of Kings, of

964
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,839
Speaker 1: the Lord of Lords that created you, and you allow

965
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: him to do in your life when he wants to do.

966
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: Amazing things happened, and God used your dad in such

967
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 1: an incredible way. I remember, I was always so impressed

968
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: with his fervor for the Lord.

969
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 4: He never he never looking back. I traveled with him.

970
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 4: He took me to America when I was thirteen. I

971
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 4: played that courtd and sang, and he preached and I

972
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 4: sat mesmerized by him seven nights a week, ten months

973
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 4: a year. Never met a guy the hunger.

974
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 2: For godlike and a soul winner.

975
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 4: Oh they died. I flew home to Scotland, walked in

976
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 4: this hospital room and all the machines wring and he says,

977
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 4: what are you doing here? I says, Oh, I says,

978
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 4: I just came to see you. Always made to see

979
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 4: you in Scotland. He says, what you're doing for the

980
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 4: Kingdom of God.

981
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:57,400
Speaker 2: He would always send you off to do things missions.

982
00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 4: Well, all the stuff we do nowadays. Was told because

983
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 4: of him. He just he would have a model. Why

984
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 4: I have a dog and bark yourself, Oh wow wolf.

985
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 4: So he got the dream and I got the job.

986
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 4: That was how we were.

987
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 1: When you talk about one of the things is that

988
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 1: you really got a reality of hell in a startling

989
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: way because a lot of people want to believe in heaven.

990
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 2: You know, Hell was never built for us.

991
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,319
Speaker 1: I mean God made a way of escape through his

992
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 1: son Jesus. All we have to do is say, Jesus,

993
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 1: forgive me coming in my heart. It's done. Hell was

994
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: not created for us, and yet those that reject.

995
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's real Jesus.

996
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 2: It's a real place to else.

997
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:43,760
Speaker 3: So what happened.

998
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 4: I took over the Minutes from Dead when I was

999
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 4: twenty one, and we sang and traveled on TV. But

1000
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 4: I began to feel a starring inside me. If you

1001
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,400
Speaker 4: ever had feel like the Lord's want to talk to

1002
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 4: you with something, you don't know whether I was there.

1003
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 4: And one day I was in my office and I said, Lord,

1004
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 4: show me what I'm missing. And I had him speak

1005
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 4: and he said, I'll show you. And as soon as

1006
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,280
Speaker 4: he said that, it was like a waterfall of people

1007
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 4: and all of mine came around this river, and we're

1008
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,760
Speaker 4: living and laughing and having kids and marrying and just life.

1009
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 4: And I began to notice that we were moving, and

1010
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 4: it began to worry, why are we moving? Where are

1011
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 4: we going to? So I tiptoe and try and find

1012
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 4: and then I started looking down on top, so it

1013
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 4: was like a split thing. And then I saw the

1014
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 4: end of this thing, and they were falling off the

1015
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 4: edge of time into eternity. And I began to scream

1016
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 4: when I saw this, and I'm saying, God, no, stop this.

1017
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 4: And he said, they'll never laugh again, they'll never know

1018
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 4: peace again. There's no escape from this. And he says,

1019
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 4: my will is for your families to be saved. And

1020
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,879
Speaker 4: that day I stopped singing, stopped the group traveling. And

1021
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,800
Speaker 4: I've been speaking with household salvation ever since.

1022
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 2: So that how that encounter changed you?

1023
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 4: Oh, my goodness, changed me completely. We sang, you know,

1024
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 4: we sang all those praise songs and stuff, and I

1025
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,839
Speaker 4: couldn't even find the courage to sing a praise song

1026
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 4: because it was so flippant compared to the torture. My

1027
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 4: mother's mother had died two weeks before this happened, and

1028
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,280
Speaker 4: it was Alice, and she died in my mom's arms,

1029
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 4: with my mom trying to get her saved, and she

1030
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 4: died blaspheming God.

1031
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 3: Wow.

1032
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 4: And God spoke to me that day. He says, Alice

1033
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 4: is lost, She's gone. She'll never she'll never know peace again.

1034
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 2: But it is a choice.

1035
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 4: This is a choice.

1036
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 2: It's a choice we have, April Man.

1037
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 12: You know, I think about your grandfather you talked about

1038
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 12: he didn't know God.

1039
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 2: My dad didn't know God.

1040
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 12: But it just took one person to calm that there

1041
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,439
Speaker 12: was a God. And that one person because of that,

1042
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 12: you know, my family's legacy is owed to that person,

1043
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 12: that somebody that spoke up. Dorothy used to win cells

1044
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 12: at college. And it just takes us speaking out. You know.

1045
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 12: We could say, well, I come from a line of alcoholics,

1046
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 12: but you can just say ran in the.

1047
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 2: Family until it ran into me.

1048
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 12: And today I'm making the choice to change the trajectory

1049
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 12: of my family and make that decision.

1050
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 2: It'll change everything.

1051
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it doesn't matter I mean the past, I

1052
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 5: mean yes, you know, but its lessons learned and it's

1053
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 5: generations that changes forever. And his love is so deep

1054
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 5: he never ever gives up. Seven years it seems like

1055
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 5: a long time. Yes, yes, so it's such a beautiful story.

1056
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,959
Speaker 13: It is, and compared to eternity, that's not very long,

1057
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 13: is it.

1058
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:32,920
Speaker 12: You know.

1059
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 3: I was talking to a friend recently.

1060
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 13: He was talking about how bad things were, and I said,

1061
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 13: this is just a snap of a finger compared eternity.

1062
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 13: Our assignment is here on earth, you know, but our

1063
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 13: home is heaven.

1064
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 3: Let's just not put you.

1065
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,879
Speaker 13: Know this, This earth is so important because it determines

1066
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 13: our eternity, the choices we make here. But other than that,

1067
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 13: it is insignificant.

1068
00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 6: What do you think, you're dad?

1069
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 2: Do we think of all that you've accomplished?

1070
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 4: Now, Well, I don't see. You don't see what you've accomplished.

1071
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 4: I bet when you guys walk through it through here,

1072
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 4: you mostly see the stuff that's still got to be

1073
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 4: done and challenges the more countries to reach for the gospel.

1074
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 4: You know, so it changes. It's pretty proud of me,

1075
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:16,280
Speaker 4: I know, he's product.

1076
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 6: We'll talk about the Orphan Hands for people that don't

1077
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 6: know about that organization, because that's an amazing work that

1078
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 6: you've steered it these years.

1079
00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 4: And that's one of those things. Rachel. I have a

1080
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 4: dog and bark yourself. He called me up one day

1081
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:27,839
Speaker 4: and he says, I'm watching the TV and that our

1082
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 4: baby's dying. I said, what are you talking about? I'm

1083
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,720
Speaker 4: watching your dad. I'm in America.

1084
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,319
Speaker 1: Your dad is in heaven now, Simon five years and

1085
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 1: your mother is ninety.

1086
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 4: Six, living by ourselves, still talk to everything. It's amazing.

1087
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 4: So what happens? He calls up and he says that

1088
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 4: our baby's dying. I says where? He says, in the Romania?

1089
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 4: I says, isn't that where nadia commination comes from? He says?

1090
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 4: He says. So, he says, and what's your plans? I

1091
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 4: said about what? He says? What you going to to

1092
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 4: help these kids? And I said, Dad, this is not

1093
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:10,439
Speaker 4: my mob. He says, so you need to help. I says,

1094
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,360
Speaker 4: I I'll send it right right across. Some money, one

1095
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 4: hundred dollars. He says, no, no, no, no, no, that's

1096
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 4: not enough. Next day, he calls me, what do you doing?

1097
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 4: Our baby's dying? I said, Dad, you told me that yesterday.

1098
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 4: You're sick. He was recovering from a cancer surgery. The

1099
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 4: wounded burst in his back terrible minutes. I says, I says,

1100
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,760
Speaker 4: you're sick and I'm busy. I says, to leave this alone.

1101
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 4: Next day the call came, well, I've been thinking, I'm

1102
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 4: going by myself. If I die on my way. If

1103
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,759
Speaker 4: I die on the way, it's your fault his sake.

1104
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 4: Mind stop it, I says, I'm coming home. So I

1105
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 4: flew home. The local press discovered cancer stricken pasted Romania.

1106
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 4: So the people started bringing us. I mean, all of

1107
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,319
Speaker 4: the studio could have been filled with bags. So it

1108
00:49:56,360 --> 00:50:01,240
Speaker 4: started him and me and I thought everything anything, imagine Johnny.

1109
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 4: So we drove to Romania, got to this place and

1110
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 4: I walked in with this, a box of powdered milk,

1111
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 4: baby milk. And I walked in, opened the doors and

1112
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 4: the smell of human waste. I gaged that, dropped the

1113
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,280
Speaker 4: box right outside, went back to the van. I'm standing

1114
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,839
Speaker 4: leaning on the hood of the van. Nick's back out.

1115
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 4: He says, get in there. I says, dude, no, no, no,

1116
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 4: you want to go to an orphan There you go.

1117
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 4: This orphanage is right there. I'm done. He says, you

1118
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 4: can't embarrass these folks. I says, I'm not going in there.

1119
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 4: He says, yes, you are. I said, no, I'm not

1120
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 4: and I said, if I stay here, I'm innocent. If

1121
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,280
Speaker 4: I go in there, I'm guilty, he says. He grabbed

1122
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 4: me by my neck and he said, well, you're going

1123
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 4: to have to be guilty. And he started hauling me

1124
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 4: into the door. And I walked into the hill, walked

1125
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 4: into the most unbelievable two hundred kids of starving, dying.

1126
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,320
Speaker 4: And I went up the stairs in this salon five

1127
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 4: with my dad and in this room and there's thirty kids.

1128
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 4: They're all rocking and like this on the cribs because

1129
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 4: they've never been cuddled all day long, all night long.

1130
00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:05,840
Speaker 4: And uh looks it looks down there's a we face

1131
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:09,080
Speaker 4: halfway down and he's looking up on his crib looking

1132
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 4: up at me, his cheeks sucked in. And the Holy said,

1133
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 4: that's your son, clear as I'm talking to you. And

1134
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:18,719
Speaker 4: I went down. I picked him up, and I said,

1135
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 4: I don't know who you are or where you came from,

1136
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 4: but I'm not going to stop until I adopt you.

1137
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:25,359
Speaker 4: And took me a year.

1138
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 1: Not only did you adopt him, but you helped all

1139
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: those other children.

1140
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 4: Well, there's no toilets. They sat on coffee cans with

1141
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 4: the raw edge.

1142
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 2: So there were no blankets, no.

1143
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,839
Speaker 4: Nothing, There was nothing. There was no heating. The water

1144
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 4: was running down the walls and uh. And so it

1145
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 4: took me a year or shout on back every two

1146
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 4: or three weeks before all I got to you were

1147
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 4: they were, you were in this thing, and uh. We'd

1148
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,439
Speaker 4: sit and just hold them and cuddle them.

1149
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:56,360
Speaker 2: And it took a year to get Andrew.

1150
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 4: And by the time we'd finished, I've fixed up the

1151
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 4: orphanage and was completely addicted.

1152
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,800
Speaker 2: Oh yes, the smell is gone.

1153
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 4: So oh yeah. So Simon calls me one day we're

1154
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,839
Speaker 4: gonna have Christmas and Romaanna. He says, I don't want

1155
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 4: you to go to Romagna this year. I want you

1156
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:14,399
Speaker 4: to go to Moldova. I says, where in the name

1157
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 4: of heavens is Modif he.

1158
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: Was still alive, just think of all the places.

1159
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,760
Speaker 4: So I said, where's Moldova? I said, isn't that far away?

1160
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 4: He said, it's just one more country over. So we

1161
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 4: went across the Carpathian Mountains in the midst of Bishi

1162
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 4: Gland and a snowstorm, jack knife trucks everywhere, and found

1163
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 4: this place in a town called in Chess, called the

1164
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 4: Dying Rooms of Moldova and I walked in and the

1165
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 4: director there said. The first thing he said to me

1166
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 4: was I've ever seen a baby freeze to death? And

1167
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 4: my stomach just I said, no, sir, he says, this

1168
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,919
Speaker 4: is eleventh of December and sixteen and frozen to death.

1169
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 4: Their skins stuck to the bars of the cribs. And

1170
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,799
Speaker 4: that was me off in a whole different thing. And

1171
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,759
Speaker 4: I fixed that place up. I built another orphanage, and

1172
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 4: then the government asked me to go to this place

1173
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 4: and we put in three hundred ninety one windows. And

1174
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 4: at the end of the thing, he says, if ever,

1175
00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 4: I said, where did all these girls come? At eighteen

1176
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,239
Speaker 4: girls come out, sat in this park bench and I

1177
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:18,320
Speaker 4: said where are they all going? And he went traffic,

1178
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,399
Speaker 4: And that's how we learned about traffic. So ever since then,

1179
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 4: I've been building houses and rescuing.

1180
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,839
Speaker 1: But because you take the girls in like because at

1181
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:28,800
Speaker 1: eighteen days.

1182
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,879
Speaker 4: From the orphanage that come to us, right, we put

1183
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 4: them back in school. Tell them if you're born, God

1184
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 4: has a plan and you're not a mistake. And they're

1185
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 4: told every day of the life of your garbage, your trash,

1186
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 4: your mother's want you.

00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 10: strength you never knew you had.

1194
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 2: When a hurricane is tearing through your life.

Speaker 2: Oh we're back with Philip Cameron.

1201
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,239
Speaker 7: Phillip, would you just take a moment for those that

1202
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 7: are watching that maybe they have never prayed that prayer

1203
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 7: of salvation.

1204
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 4: Well, Jesus is as close as a whisper. He loves

1205
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,000
Speaker 4: you with a love that will never let you go.

1206
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 4: No what you're doing, where you are going to measure

1207
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 4: in His love never fails. And if you're watching right now,

1208
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 4: when you don't know Jesus, all you've got to do

1209
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 4: is real simple, you've got to say to him, Lord Jesus, come.

1210
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 1: Into a Jesus, come into my heart, forgive me of

1211
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 1: my sins.

1212
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 4: I give you my heart, and I'm going to live

1213
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 4: for you every day, for you every day. Now. The

1214
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 4: Bible says this, if you pray that and believe it

1215
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 4: in your heart, you are saved. What that means is this,

1216
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,400
Speaker 4: You're not going to go to hell. You're going to

1217
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 4: go to heaven. And he's got a plan that's so

1218
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 4: much bigger than you've ever imagined in your life. If

1219
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 4: you'll trust him with it, I'll promise you.

1220
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 2: That's so good, that's so good in it.

1221
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,319
Speaker 1: Well, and you know what you may be watching right

1222
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 1: now and say, you know what I had.

1223
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 2: I'd love to help Philip.

1224
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,359
Speaker 1: We're going to put his information up and you could

1225
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,439
Speaker 1: help with Moultdolva. You could help with what he's doing,

1226
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 1: the orphanages, the sex trafficking, and so many other things

1227
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: that you're actively working on right now. And I know

1228
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: that Father Simon would be so proud to hear about

1229
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:33,440
Speaker 1: all of this.

1230
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 2: But we are out of time.

1231
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:39,359
Speaker 1: We have another country over for you to go here,

1232
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 1: but we are out of time. Don't you remember that

1233
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,319
Speaker 1: Your past may have wounded you, but it does not

1234
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: define you. Your heavenly Father defines who you are, and

1235
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:51,759
Speaker 1: the Bible says we are the righteousness righteousness of God

1236
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: through Christ Jesus, and of course he alone. He can

1237
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,840
Speaker 1: redeem your pain. He can restore what was lost. He

1238
00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:01,879
Speaker 1: can rewrite your story and the stories of those you love.

1239
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: His promises never fail and will be fulfilled in your life.

1240
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,919
Speaker 1: If you're watching today you need prayer, or you prayed

1241
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: that prayer with Philip, call that number on your screen.
