The 700 Club | January 24, 2025 | January 24, 2025

This is a cbn closed captioning audio video test.
00:01:24.951 --> 00:00:01.415
(upbeat music)
00:00:01.982 --> 00:00:03.517
- [announcer] the following program is sponsored by cbn.
00:00:03.517 --> 00:00:06.320
- [gordon] coming up.
00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:07.754
- [drew] i heard some noise in the living room.
00:00:07.754 --> 00:00:09.723
- [narrator] a home invasion.
00:00:09.723 --> 00:00:11.125
- there's somebody in my living room.
00:00:11.125 --> 00:00:13.427
- [gordon] this man goes chasing a robber.
00:00:13.427 --> 00:00:16.196
- i move him out of the way pretty easily.
00:00:16.196 --> 00:00:17.831
- [gordon] and runs straight into two more.
00:00:17.831 --> 00:00:20.634
- and the last noise that i remember hearing
00:00:20.634 --> 00:00:22.736
Was the gunshot go off.
00:00:22.736 --> 00:00:24.004
(loud gunshot)
00:00:24.004 --> 00:00:25.506
- [gordon] then he takes a bullet in the face.
00:00:25.506 --> 00:00:28.075
- [drew] you should not be alive.
00:00:28.075 --> 00:00:29.643
- [gordon] his story on today's 700 club.
00:00:29.643 --> 00:00:33.981
(upbeat inspiring music)
00:00:34.648 --> 00:00:36.450
Well welcome to the 700 club.
00:00:36.450 --> 00:00:38.218
Countries can rise or fall on a piece of technology
00:00:38.218 --> 00:00:41.822
That fits on the tip of your finger.
00:00:41.822 --> 00:00:44.391
Semiconductors are critical
00:00:44.391 --> 00:00:46.226
For everything from weapon systems to microwaves.
00:00:46.226 --> 00:00:49.830
Currently the world's biggest manufacturer
00:00:49.830 --> 00:00:52.733
Of these chips is taiwan,
00:00:52.733 --> 00:00:55.035
Although china is set on taking over global production.
00:00:55.035 --> 00:00:59.406
As brody carter reports,
00:00:59.406 --> 00:01:01.241
That could mean a chip war in the making.
00:01:01.241 --> 00:01:04.711
- the key to dominating international technology
00:01:05.846 --> 00:01:08.982
And computing power rests in semiconductor chips.
00:01:08.982 --> 00:01:12.319
Basically, the brains of modern electronics.
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.755
And you might be surprised the united states
00:01:14.755 --> 00:01:16.723
Isn't the world leader
00:01:16.723 --> 00:01:17.891
In this multi-billion dollar industry.
00:01:17.891 --> 00:01:19.726
It's not even second.
00:01:19.726 --> 00:01:21.295
The us government's goal is simply to stay ahead of china.
00:01:21.295 --> 00:01:24.598
- when we look at the world's most advanced chips,
00:01:24.598 --> 00:01:27.601
Taiwan makes 92% of them.
00:01:27.601 --> 00:01:30.003
Matter of fact, one company in taiwan makes 92%.
00:01:30.003 --> 00:01:33.340
- [brody] the small island of taiwan
00:01:33.340 --> 00:01:34.808
Clearly dominates the world's semiconductor market.
00:01:34.808 --> 00:01:37.778
That single manufacturer chang refers to is tsmc,
00:01:37.778 --> 00:01:41.548
Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company
00:01:41.548 --> 00:01:44.218
And apple is its biggest customer.
00:01:44.218 --> 00:01:46.520
- so if it were knocked offline,
00:01:46.520 --> 00:01:48.622
We'd face a huge economic crisis
00:01:48.622 --> 00:01:51.091
Because our inability to get the chips we need.
00:01:51.091 --> 00:01:53.627
- [brody] tufts university professor chris miller,
00:01:53.627 --> 00:01:55.862
Is the author of "chip war: the fight for the world's
00:01:55.862 --> 00:01:58.232
Most critical technology.
00:01:58.232 --> 00:02:00.033
He says the taiwanese company's dominance in semiconductors
00:02:00.033 --> 00:02:03.003
Makes opec 40% share of world oil production
00:02:03.003 --> 00:02:06.139
Pale by comparison.
00:02:06.139 --> 00:02:07.708
- today china spends as much money importing semiconductors
00:02:07.708 --> 00:02:12.346
As it spends importing oil
00:02:12.346 --> 00:02:14.448
And it buys those ship in large part from us firms
00:02:14.448 --> 00:02:17.751
That make great business selling to china.
00:02:17.751 --> 00:02:20.587
- [brody] the chip industry is made possible
00:02:20.587 --> 00:02:22.155
By a symbiotic relationship among key countries
00:02:22.155 --> 00:02:25.025
That forms a very complex supply chain.
00:02:25.025 --> 00:02:27.461
America, the world's largest market,
00:02:27.461 --> 00:02:29.763
Also makes up 40% of the total value
00:02:29.763 --> 00:02:32.399
Of this international supply machine.
00:02:32.399 --> 00:02:34.768
- today, if you wanna make an advanced chip,
00:02:34.768 --> 00:02:36.470
The most cutting edge chips that you'd find
00:02:36.470 --> 00:02:39.172
In a smartphone or data center,
00:02:39.172 --> 00:02:40.374
It's simply impossible to do without
00:02:40.374 --> 00:02:42.109
Using software from the us,
00:02:42.109 --> 00:02:44.144
Machine tools from the netherlands,
00:02:44.144 --> 00:02:47.147
The us and japan ultra purified chemicals from japan,
00:02:47.147 --> 00:02:51.685
As well as manufacturing capabilities in taiwan.
00:02:51.685 --> 00:02:54.021
It's an international process.
00:02:54.021 --> 00:02:55.522
- [brody] just a few years ago,
00:02:55.522 --> 00:02:57.057
China's tech giant huawei was tsmcs number two customer.
00:02:57.057 --> 00:03:01.495
Then the trump administration tightened restrictions
00:03:01.495 --> 00:03:04.064
Preventing huawei from getting chips developed by the us
00:03:04.064 --> 00:03:07.367
Due to espionage and national security concerns.
00:03:07.367 --> 00:03:10.437
- huawei is something that's very dangerous.
00:03:10.437 --> 00:03:13.006
You look at what they've done from a security standpoint,
00:03:13.006 --> 00:03:15.642
From a military standpoint, it's very dangerous.
00:03:15.642 --> 00:03:17.811
- if taiwan were taken over
00:03:17.811 --> 00:03:20.147
Or even if the taiwan wasn't taken over,
00:03:20.147 --> 00:03:21.915
But there was a war on the taiwan strait
00:03:21.915 --> 00:03:24.985
That taiwan repelled,
00:03:24.985 --> 00:03:26.486
Even still, the shock that semiconductor supply chains
00:03:26.486 --> 00:03:29.656
Would cause a deep depression
00:03:29.656 --> 00:03:31.491
In manufacturing industries worldwide.
00:03:32.526 --> 00:03:34.027
And the reason is that today all types
00:03:34.027 --> 00:03:37.664
Of goods require semiconductors.
00:03:37.664 --> 00:03:39.132
It's not just smartphones or pcs,
00:03:39.132 --> 00:03:40.867
Sort of high tech goods that you might think of.
00:03:40.867 --> 00:03:42.969
It's your car which might have
00:03:42.969 --> 00:03:45.138
Hundreds of semiconductors inside,
00:03:45.138 --> 00:03:47.040
Your coffee maker, your microwave,
00:03:47.040 --> 00:03:49.876
Almost anything with an on/off switch today
00:03:49.876 --> 00:03:52.112
Has semiconductors inside of it.
00:03:52.112 --> 00:03:54.314
- [brody] more importantly, miller told cbn news
00:03:54.314 --> 00:03:56.383
Microchips has revolutionized american warfare.
00:03:56.383 --> 00:03:59.519
Semiconductors made in taiwan are used in f35 fighter jets
00:03:59.519 --> 00:04:03.757
And a wide range of us military grade weapons
00:04:03.757 --> 00:04:06.460
And defense systems.
00:04:06.460 --> 00:04:07.894
Since the world's entire tech ecosystem can't function
00:04:07.894 --> 00:04:11.031
Without these chips, that makes the sovereign island
00:04:11.031 --> 00:04:13.734
Ground zero for a chip war between the us and china.
00:04:13.734 --> 00:04:17.471
- and that means that the world's made
00:04:17.471 --> 00:04:19.439
To order chips are made on china's doorstep.
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:23.443
Both south korea and taiwan are vulnerable
00:04:23.443 --> 00:04:26.513
And it is not inconceivable
00:04:26.513 --> 00:04:28.115
That china could take over both of them.
00:04:28.115 --> 00:04:30.016
- [brody] that's what makes the communist governments
00:04:30.016 --> 00:04:31.618
Made in china 2025 plan
00:04:31.618 --> 00:04:33.787
To make the country dominant
00:04:33.787 --> 00:04:35.188
In global high-tech manufacturing,
00:04:35.188 --> 00:04:37.357
A true threat to the us,
00:04:37.357 --> 00:04:39.025
Both economically and militarily.
00:04:39.025 --> 00:04:41.695
- as china's become stronger, it's become more belligerent,
00:04:41.695 --> 00:04:44.598
More provocative, more aggressive.
00:04:44.598 --> 00:04:46.967
This is perhaps the greatest mistake america
00:04:46.967 --> 00:04:49.536
Has made throughout its history
00:04:49.536 --> 00:04:51.438
And it's a mistake that we may not survive.
00:04:51.438 --> 00:04:54.007
- [brody] it's one reason the us followed suit
00:04:54.007 --> 00:04:55.976
With the chips act pouring out billions
00:04:55.976 --> 00:04:58.245
To bring chip manufacturing and research back to the us.
00:04:58.245 --> 00:05:01.848
- if you wanna build a cutting edge chip making facility,
00:05:01.848 --> 00:05:04.785
It'll cost 20 or $25 billion for just one plant.
00:05:04.785 --> 00:05:08.722
These are the most expensive factories in human history.
00:05:08.722 --> 00:05:12.726
- [brody] tsmc has committed at least 12 billion
00:05:12.726 --> 00:05:15.128
To build a chip fabrication plant in arizona.
00:05:15.128 --> 00:05:17.564
Still, neither china nor the us can overtake taiwan
00:05:17.564 --> 00:05:20.600
And achieve self-sufficiency anytime soon.
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:23.303
- we should care about where they're made
00:05:23.303 --> 00:05:24.571
Because we need them to drive our economy
00:05:24.571 --> 00:05:27.240
And it is the case increasingly that things
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:30.944
That are further away,
00:05:30.944 --> 00:05:32.479
Things that are at the hands of geopolitical adversaries,
00:05:32.479 --> 00:05:34.347
May not be attainable at all
00:05:34.347 --> 00:05:36.349
Times and that provides, you know,
00:05:36.349 --> 00:05:38.218
A concern of vulnerability for us.
00:05:38.218 --> 00:05:39.853
It also provides our adversaries,
00:05:39.853 --> 00:05:41.988
A strength that they can use.
00:05:41.988 --> 00:05:43.590
- [brody] while taiwan has maintained its sovereignty
00:05:43.590 --> 00:05:45.492
For more than 70 years,
00:05:45.492 --> 00:05:47.060
China still considers the island nation its property
00:05:47.060 --> 00:05:49.763
And regularly provokes it militarily.
00:05:49.763 --> 00:05:52.265
Given china's authoritarian use
00:05:52.265 --> 00:05:53.900
Of technology against its own people
00:05:53.900 --> 00:05:55.969
And the potential power of semiconductors,
00:05:55.969 --> 00:05:58.338
Who controls the world's technology
00:05:58.338 --> 00:06:00.307
And data is paramount.
00:06:00.307 --> 00:06:02.275
This evolving technology makes semiconductors even more
00:06:02.275 --> 00:06:05.212
Of a national security concern,
00:06:05.212 --> 00:06:07.013
Especially with progress and artificial intelligence
00:06:07.013 --> 00:06:09.716
And quantum computing.
00:06:09.716 --> 00:06:11.351
The chip war is well underway
00:06:11.351 --> 00:06:12.786
And exactly how hostile this war becomes,
00:06:12.786 --> 00:06:15.589
Remains to be seen.
00:06:15.589 --> 00:06:17.023
Brody, carter, cbn news,
00:06:17.023 --> 00:06:19.759
- well any kind of strength/weakness analysis,
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.263
You always look at single points of failure.
00:06:23.263 --> 00:06:26.399
If taiwan semiconductor would fail,
00:06:27.400 --> 00:06:29.736
You literally wipe out 90% of the world's production.
00:06:29.736 --> 00:06:33.974
That's why it's important for us to stand for taiwan
00:06:33.974 --> 00:06:37.110
And to stand for taiwan's independence.
00:06:37.110 --> 00:06:40.213
Literally everything that we use
00:06:40.213 --> 00:06:42.215
To run the world is dependent on that one company.
00:06:42.215 --> 00:06:46.286
We'll be back with more of the 700 club right after this.
00:06:46.286 --> 00:06:50.290
(upbeat music)
00:06:50.290 --> 00:06:52.759
(soft music)
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:54.094
- [narrator] wanna be a part of a community
00:06:54.094 --> 00:06:55.629
That inspires your spiritual growth while winning prizes?

Track and set spiritual goals.
00:07:02.736 --> 00:07:04.771
Enjoy conversation starters
00:07:04.771 --> 00:07:06.339
With friends and family and collect points to win prizes.
00:07:06.339 --> 00:07:09.876

Grow, connect, have fun.
00:07:16.149 --> 00:07:18.652
The all new mycbn app.
00:07:18.652 --> 00:07:21.721
(soft music)
00:07:22.255 --> 00:07:23.657
- i remember just walking through the wilderness
00:07:23.657 --> 00:07:24.824
And just mesmerized by the nature.
00:07:24.824 --> 00:07:27.227
The beauty, the silence.
00:07:27.227 --> 00:07:29.329
But in the midst of that silence,
00:07:29.329 --> 00:07:31.298
God began to reveal himself to me.
00:07:32.332 --> 00:07:36.403
God showed me what i had become.
00:07:37.203 --> 00:07:38.572
I just got up and i said, i need something greater than me.
00:07:39.973 --> 00:07:42.909
When you've tried everything and nothing's worked,
00:07:44.210 --> 00:07:45.679
Cry out to jesus.
00:07:45.679 --> 00:07:47.681
(soft inspirational music)
00:07:48.448 --> 00:07:51.985
- it was alarming how much i was vomiting.
00:07:51.985 --> 00:07:54.988
- it was a condition called acute tubular necrosis.
00:07:54.988 --> 00:07:57.724
- [speaker] they kept saying septic, septic.
00:07:57.724 --> 00:07:59.326
I think she's getting septic.
00:07:59.326 --> 00:08:00.493
- they sent this lady in to prepare us
00:08:00.493 --> 00:08:03.330
For a lifetime of dialysis
00:08:03.330 --> 00:08:05.632
And this medicine was going
00:08:05.632 --> 00:08:07.100
To destroy every dream my girl could possibly have.
00:08:07.100 --> 00:08:09.436
- thousands and thousands,
00:08:09.436 --> 00:08:10.971
Literally around the world were praying for her.
00:08:10.971 --> 00:08:13.840
Her mom runs out into the hallway
00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:15.375
And she's like, he just told me he canceled your surgery.
00:08:15.375 --> 00:08:19.746
He was like, your kidney biopsy came back completely clean.
00:08:21.147 --> 00:08:23.717
I stood up on my hospital bed with my iv bag,
00:08:23.717 --> 00:08:26.286
Just we were hugging and screaming.
00:08:26.286 --> 00:08:28.054
It was like just the biggest celebration.
00:08:28.054 --> 00:08:30.624
- i know there were a lot of people praying for her.
00:08:30.624 --> 00:08:32.826
I think those prayers were answered.
00:08:32.826 --> 00:08:34.961
- hi.
00:08:34.961 --> 00:08:36.062
Yay,
00:08:36.062 --> 00:08:37.998
- [speaker] you did it.
00:08:38.698 --> 00:08:39.566
- i am beyond thankful
00:08:39.566 --> 00:08:41.301
That i have been singing nonstop.
00:08:41.301 --> 00:08:43.336
Prayers work.
00:08:43.336 --> 00:08:44.170
They work.
00:08:44.170 --> 00:08:45.138
Ask people to pray for you
00:08:45.138 --> 00:08:46.506
And like really believe,
00:08:46.506 --> 00:08:48.041
Really believe that anything is possible.
00:08:48.041 --> 00:08:51.611
(soft music)
00:08:52.178 --> 00:08:53.013
- [narrator] life.
00:08:53.013 --> 00:08:54.481
It's meant to be lived fully.
00:08:54.481 --> 00:08:58.051
Jesus said it, "i came to give you life."
00:08:59.219 --> 00:09:02.689
Life to the fullest.
00:09:03.356 --> 00:09:05.925
Life in your family life.
00:09:06.693 --> 00:09:09.029
Life in your finances,
00:09:09.729 --> 00:09:11.965
Life in your body, mind, and spirit.
00:09:13.033 --> 00:09:17.637
Life in your everyday.
00:09:18.338 --> 00:09:24.244
At cbn.com, we're taking what jesus said seriously.
00:09:25.478 --> 00:09:32.652
We're here to help you discover life.
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:40.193
Life,
00:09:40.627 --> 00:09:42.362
Live it fully.
00:09:42.962 --> 00:09:44.798
Cbn.com.
00:09:44.798 --> 00:09:48.835
(soft inspirational music)
00:09:49.636 --> 00:09:52.439
(soft music)
00:09:52.439 --> 00:09:53.440
- i was muslim for four years.
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:56.376
I had spells cast on me
00:09:56.376 --> 00:09:57.744
And just everything you can think of.
00:09:58.878 --> 00:10:00.380
I never got what i was looking for.
00:10:00.380 --> 00:10:03.183
There was no real power to change my life.
00:10:03.183 --> 00:10:06.953
I had tried everything.
00:10:06.953 --> 00:10:08.655
It was just came to a point
00:10:08.655 --> 00:10:10.190
Where it was like, you know what?
00:10:10.190 --> 00:10:11.658
I don't want to do this anymore.
00:10:11.658 --> 00:10:13.426
The little old lady at the church, she'd come and get me.
00:10:13.426 --> 00:10:16.830
She prayed for me and all i know
00:10:16.830 --> 00:10:19.432
Is i felt the love of god.
00:10:19.432 --> 00:10:22.335
We would read from genesis to revelation
00:10:22.335 --> 00:10:24.771
And we just went deep in the word of god.
00:10:24.771 --> 00:10:27.707
Everything about me, even my very countenance
00:10:27.707 --> 00:10:30.410
Begin to change after that point.
00:10:30.410 --> 00:10:33.446
And now i just have a desire
00:10:33.446 --> 00:10:35.415
To see them experience the loving kindness of god
00:10:36.683 --> 00:10:40.120
That i have experienced.
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.855
To see that true change is possible
00:10:41.855 --> 00:10:44.657
And that what you thought that you were looking
00:10:44.657 --> 00:10:46.693
For can only be found in christ.
00:10:46.693 --> 00:10:50.029
(soft inspirational music)
00:10:50.830 --> 00:10:52.499
- [narrator] stay connected with cbn news
00:10:52.499 --> 00:10:54.701
All day across our platforms.
00:10:54.701 --> 00:10:57.804
- mommy wine culture.
00:10:58.538 --> 00:11:00.173
Well that's a catchphrase
00:11:00.173 --> 00:11:01.674
Of a marketing campaign targeting young mothers.
00:11:01.674 --> 00:11:05.311
It aims to convince them that they need alcohol to cope
00:11:05.311 --> 00:11:09.015
With the pressures of raising children.
00:11:09.015 --> 00:11:11.384
Social media memes make it sound like it's harmless fun.
00:11:11.384 --> 00:11:15.021
Our cbn medical reporter, lorie johnson,
00:11:15.021 --> 00:11:17.457
Shows us why it's deadly serious.
00:11:17.457 --> 00:11:22.061
- wine gets better with age.
00:11:22.862 --> 00:11:25.498
I get better with wine.
00:11:25.498 --> 00:11:27.700
Okay, guilty.
00:11:28.268 --> 00:11:29.202
You girls know that's true.
00:11:29.202 --> 00:11:30.904
- we do.
00:11:31.304 --> 00:11:32.739
- [lorie] the troubling messages often try to be humorous
00:11:34.007 --> 00:11:37.377
And appear on a number of products
00:11:37.377 --> 00:11:39.679
From baby clothes with "mommy drinks because i cry,"
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.750
"to wine glasses with mommy's sippy cup."
00:11:43.750 --> 00:11:47.187
T-shirts reading, "coffee hockey mom, wine, repeat."
00:11:47.187 --> 00:11:51.324
And even memes like the most expensive part
00:11:51.324 --> 00:11:54.127
Of having kids is all the wine you have to drink.
00:11:54.127 --> 00:11:57.831
- i think this messaging that is everywhere,
00:11:57.831 --> 00:12:01.935
It normalizes
00:12:01.935 --> 00:12:04.137
This behavior of drinking to survive parenthood
00:12:05.405 --> 00:12:07.340
And it normalizes this idea
00:12:07.340 --> 00:12:09.542
That like drinking a lot is no big deal.
00:12:09.542 --> 00:12:12.612
- [lorie] as it turns out,
00:12:12.612 --> 00:12:13.847
The messaging sadly reflects reality.
00:12:13.847 --> 00:12:17.350
Kelly manley turned to alcohol to fit in with her peers
00:12:17.350 --> 00:12:21.054
Who she observed drinking everywhere,
00:12:21.054 --> 00:12:23.590
At kids' birthday parties, soccer practices, you name it.
00:12:23.590 --> 00:12:27.694
- people would show up to the park with little, you know,
00:12:27.694 --> 00:12:30.730
Discrete glasses of wine to have at, you know,
00:12:30.730 --> 00:12:33.266
4:00 pm on a play date at the park.
00:12:33.266 --> 00:12:35.468
You know you go to the zoo
00:12:35.468 --> 00:12:37.904
And for a small upcharge you can buy a flight of beer,
00:12:37.904 --> 00:12:41.040
Not just a beer,
00:12:41.040 --> 00:12:42.542
But a flight of beer
00:12:42.542 --> 00:12:44.010
To enjoy while you're pushing your kid around the zoo.
00:12:45.311 --> 00:12:46.846
- [lorie] and like other events these days,
00:12:46.846 --> 00:12:49.015
It's going digital.
00:12:49.015 --> 00:12:50.483
Like the moms who need wine facebook group.
00:12:50.483 --> 00:12:53.853
- alcohol has been sold as the ultimate way to decompress,
00:12:53.853 --> 00:12:58.725
To cope and to bond with other women
00:12:58.725 --> 00:13:01.728
And it's very dangerous.
00:13:02.462 --> 00:13:04.030
- [lorie] the alcohol industry has certainly played a part.
00:13:04.030 --> 00:13:07.700
Back in the nineties it ushered in this
00:13:07.700 --> 00:13:09.769
So-called pinking of the market,
00:13:09.769 --> 00:13:12.272
Making and advertising booze aimed specifically at women.
00:13:12.272 --> 00:13:17.343
- drink these sweetened, pre-unsweetened, gorgeous,
00:13:18.578 --> 00:13:20.613
Attractive pink drinks that will
00:13:21.414 --> 00:13:23.449
End you into drinking spirits, drinking pretty wine,
00:13:24.784 --> 00:13:28.354
Drinking wine with names like you know,
00:13:28.354 --> 00:13:32.158
French rabbit.
00:13:32.725 --> 00:13:33.793
- [lorie] and it worked.
00:13:33.793 --> 00:13:35.194
While historically men consumed the most alcohol,
00:13:35.194 --> 00:13:39.098
Women are now catching up.
00:13:39.098 --> 00:13:41.434
In the last 15 years,
00:13:41.434 --> 00:13:43.069
The greatest increase in consumption has been
00:13:43.069 --> 00:13:45.738
Among women in their thirties and forties.
00:13:45.738 --> 00:13:48.374
However, because of biological differences,
00:13:48.374 --> 00:13:50.843
Women absorb more alcohol
00:13:50.843 --> 00:13:53.179
And take longer to metabolize it than men.
00:13:53.179 --> 00:13:56.449
That means the same amount
00:13:56.449 --> 00:13:57.884
Of alcohol typically damages the female body
00:13:57.884 --> 00:14:01.254
More than the man's.
00:14:01.254 --> 00:14:03.256
After drinking the same amount of alcohol,
00:14:03.256 --> 00:14:06.025
Women tend to have higher blood alcohol levels than men
00:14:06.025 --> 00:14:10.229
And the effects usually occur more quickly
00:14:10.229 --> 00:14:12.966
And last longer in women.
00:14:12.966 --> 00:14:15.468
Alcohol also makes women more susceptible than men
00:14:15.468 --> 00:14:19.105
To liver disease, heart disease,
00:14:19.105 --> 00:14:21.240
Cancer and cognitive decline.
00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:24.177
Us health officials recommend women should drink no more
00:14:24.177 --> 00:14:27.880
Than five ounces of wine a day.
00:14:27.880 --> 00:14:30.783
Canadian health officials go further saying
00:14:30.783 --> 00:14:33.753
Only two five ounce glasses per week.
00:14:33.753 --> 00:14:37.090
- this is a women's health issue.
00:14:37.090 --> 00:14:39.392
It's in fact a big public health issue.
00:14:39.392 --> 00:14:42.261
- [lorie] and it's not just physical.
00:14:42.261 --> 00:14:43.930
Alcohol affects mental health too,
00:14:43.930 --> 00:14:46.966
Which is why kelly gave it up.
00:14:46.966 --> 00:14:49.302
- it just exacerbated my feelings of anxiety
00:14:49.302 --> 00:14:52.839
And depression and i felt like i was betraying myself
00:14:52.839 --> 00:14:57.910
Every time i drank.
00:14:58.578 --> 00:14:59.579
- [lorie] she's not alone.
00:14:59.579 --> 00:15:01.047
More moms are rejecting mommy wine culture
00:15:01.047 --> 00:15:04.784
And turning to groups like sober mom squad,
00:15:04.784 --> 00:15:08.087
- having a safe space where you can talk
00:15:08.087 --> 00:15:09.756
To other moms about, you know,
00:15:09.756 --> 00:15:11.424
The questions you're having about alcohol
00:15:11.424 --> 00:15:13.192
Or how difficult it is to navigate in this culture
00:15:13.192 --> 00:15:17.363
Where everyone tells you you need to drink to be a parent
00:15:17.363 --> 00:15:20.566
And not have to justify
00:15:20.566 --> 00:15:22.135
That you should just be grateful to have kids.
00:15:22.135 --> 00:15:24.570
- [lorie] many moms are also saying no
00:15:24.570 --> 00:15:27.040
Because they're concerned about the culture's impact
00:15:27.040 --> 00:15:29.942
On their child's self-esteem.
00:15:29.942 --> 00:15:32.378
- most problematic part of it
00:15:32.378 --> 00:15:34.414
Is what is it saying to your kids?
00:15:34.414 --> 00:15:37.283
Again, if it's, you know, tongue in cheek jokes like
00:15:38.618 --> 00:15:41.154
Between friends, that's one thing,
00:15:41.154 --> 00:15:42.688
But when you're wearing the t-shirt
00:15:42.688 --> 00:15:44.390
That said "mommy needs wine," you know,
00:15:44.390 --> 00:15:46.359
Saying that you have to, you know,
00:15:46.359 --> 00:15:47.627
I have to drink because you're difficult.
00:15:47.627 --> 00:15:50.196
I think that leads into something that's even more damaging.
00:15:50.196 --> 00:15:54.333
- [lorie] so while pop culture
00:15:54.333 --> 00:15:55.835
And big alcohol try to convince new moms
00:15:55.835 --> 00:15:59.372
Life is better with booze,
00:15:59.372 --> 00:16:01.607
A growing number are rejecting that message
00:16:01.607 --> 00:16:04.777
For the sake of their own health as well as their families.
00:16:04.777 --> 00:16:09.182
Lorie johnson, cbn news,
00:16:09.182 --> 00:16:11.150
- i wish being sober were somehow cool in our culture,
00:16:12.518 --> 00:16:16.055
But unfortunately there's no industry behind sobriety.
00:16:16.055 --> 00:16:19.192
There's plenty of industry behind the wine industry,
00:16:19.192 --> 00:16:23.096
Behind the alcohol industry,
00:16:23.096 --> 00:16:25.364
And all they're trying to do is encourage you
00:16:25.364 --> 00:16:27.200
To drink more of their product.
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:29.335
But here's the problem.
00:16:29.335 --> 00:16:30.970
If you drink to solve your problems,
00:16:31.971 --> 00:16:35.308
All you're doing is irrigating them
00:16:35.308 --> 00:16:37.643
And you're making them worse.
00:16:37.643 --> 00:16:39.879
Alcohol, medical science says, alcohol is a depressant.
00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:44.851
So if you're sad,
00:16:44.851 --> 00:16:46.953
If you're overcome by what's going on in your life
00:16:46.953 --> 00:16:49.655
And you add alcohol to the mix,
00:16:49.655 --> 00:16:51.791
All you're doing is making it worse.
00:16:51.791 --> 00:16:54.894
It's not helping you at all.
00:16:54.894 --> 00:16:57.130
So if you see someone wearing that t-shirt,
00:16:57.130 --> 00:16:59.899
If you see someone with that throw pillow,
00:16:59.899 --> 00:17:03.236
It's a warning sign.
00:17:03.236 --> 00:17:04.537
It's a wake up call for all the friends,
00:17:04.537 --> 00:17:07.240
All the family around that individual, they need help.
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:10.877
And wouldn't it be wonderful if the community came
00:17:10.877 --> 00:17:13.779
Around mothers and said, how can we help you?
00:17:13.779 --> 00:17:17.250
How can relieve your burden today?
00:17:17.250 --> 00:17:20.820
Instead of that glass of wine,
00:17:20.820 --> 00:17:22.388
How about having a spa day and i'll help you with the kids
00:17:22.388 --> 00:17:25.992
And you go have a moment where you can decompress
00:17:25.992 --> 00:17:29.795
And do so very healthily with health behind it,
00:17:29.795 --> 00:17:33.833
Not with something that's going to make it worse, terry,
00:17:33.833 --> 00:17:38.171
- well, up next, startled by a noise in his living room,
00:17:38.171 --> 00:17:41.541
Then staring down the barrel of a .45,
00:17:41.541 --> 00:17:45.144
The last thing this man remembers is the sound of a gunshot.
00:17:45.144 --> 00:17:49.215
See how he survived getting shot in the face after this,
00:17:49.215 --> 00:17:54.287
And then later a desperate prayer from a man
00:17:55.488 --> 00:17:56.589
With an aortic dissection.
00:17:56.589 --> 00:17:58.891
God, just don't let me die like this.
00:17:58.891 --> 00:18:01.460
See how this man miraculously beat the odds
00:18:01.460 --> 00:18:03.996
And walked out of the hospital.
00:18:03.996 --> 00:18:06.132
Plus we're gonna be praying for you, so stay with us.
00:18:06.132 --> 00:18:10.803
(soft inspirational music)
00:18:11.571 --> 00:18:15.641
- [speaker] giving to the 700 club is giving to the world.
00:18:15.641 --> 00:18:19.445
- [speaker] 700 club are my feet.
00:18:19.445 --> 00:18:21.147
- they're walking it there.
00:18:21.147 --> 00:18:22.582
All i'm doing is helping write the check.
00:18:22.582 --> 00:18:25.284
- it's just like planting a seed in the ground
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:28.621
And the water comes and the sun hits it and it grows.
00:18:28.621 --> 00:18:33.025
- you can trust cbn, they're gonna take your money
00:18:33.025 --> 00:18:35.761
And invest it wisely.
00:18:35.761 --> 00:18:37.496

00:18:37.496 --> 00:18:41.834
(soft inspirational music)

- for me as a musician and my identity,
00:19:45.164 --> 00:19:47.166
That was like the ultimate validation,
00:19:47.166 --> 00:19:48.968
Just literally going out and like living the rockstar life.
00:19:48.968 --> 00:19:51.704
It was a darkness that started to wear on me.
00:19:51.704 --> 00:19:54.206
I realized how fake it was, so without talking to anybody,
00:19:54.206 --> 00:19:57.510
I silently left hollywood with my dreams shattered,
00:19:57.510 --> 00:20:00.846
Because that was the epitome.
00:20:00.846 --> 00:20:02.548
And i said, god, i need help.
00:20:02.548 --> 00:20:04.917
And at that moment i knew i needed to figure out
00:20:04.917 --> 00:20:07.920
Who jesus is.
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:09.221
I found that acceptance i was looking for.
00:20:09.221 --> 00:20:11.657
The only thing that can fill that hole is jesus christ.
00:20:11.657 --> 00:20:15.227
(upbeat music)
00:20:15.227 --> 00:20:16.062

- god, i can't stop.

I'm gonna wreck my marriage.
00:21:17.423 --> 00:21:18.324
I'm gonna wreck my family.
00:21:18.324 --> 00:21:19.625
I had this just lust, this physical dependency
00:21:19.625 --> 00:21:22.128
That i had to these drugs.
00:21:22.128 --> 00:21:24.163
- i just couldn't be with him the rest of my life.
00:21:24.163 --> 00:21:26.866
I decided to leave.
00:21:26.866 --> 00:21:29.068
(soft inspirational music)
00:21:29.835 --> 00:21:31.170
- i just remember him doing the altar call.
00:21:31.170 --> 00:21:32.972
And if you're not sure that you're gonna go to heaven,
00:21:32.972 --> 00:21:35.641
You've gotta confess with your mouth.
00:21:35.641 --> 00:21:38.277
Say that you're a sinner.
00:21:38.277 --> 00:21:39.678
You gotta believe that christ died for your sins.
00:21:39.678 --> 00:21:41.714
There's only one way.
00:21:41.714 --> 00:21:42.982
There's only one hope, and that's christ.
00:21:42.982 --> 00:21:45.484
- i'm not breathing enough to make a feather move.
00:21:45.484 --> 00:21:48.087
That really frustrated me
00:21:48.087 --> 00:21:49.555
Because my quality of life had drastically changed.
00:21:49.555 --> 00:21:54.627
I could just say, just lord, i need your help.
00:21:55.795 --> 00:21:57.897
- there is someone else, you breathing issues.
00:21:57.897 --> 00:22:00.099
Take a complete breath
00:22:00.099 --> 00:22:01.567
And exhale as jesus christ heals you completely.
00:22:01.567 --> 00:22:05.371
- i can feel that air going clear down
00:22:05.371 --> 00:22:08.841
To my stomach and back.
00:22:08.841 --> 00:22:10.910
He will always be there walking this out for your benefit.
00:22:10.910 --> 00:22:15.481
- drew anderson said he needed two things in life,
00:22:16.715 --> 00:22:19.652
The first, a heartbeat, the second, cocaine.
00:22:19.652 --> 00:22:23.823
Drew said the drug gave him a feeling of invincibility.
00:22:23.823 --> 00:22:27.593
Then the night three men broke into his house,
00:22:27.593 --> 00:22:30.296
All that came crashing down.
00:22:30.296 --> 00:22:33.833
- one night i was asleep and it was early in the morning
00:22:35.234 --> 00:22:38.204
And i heard some noise in the living room.
00:22:38.204 --> 00:22:40.372
And you know, i got up out of bed
00:22:41.340 --> 00:22:43.275
And there's somebody in my living room.
00:22:43.275 --> 00:22:45.978
So i go after him.
00:22:45.978 --> 00:22:47.146
I move him out of the way pretty easily.
00:22:48.280 --> 00:22:50.382
What i didn't see was two other people.
00:22:50.382 --> 00:22:53.118
And they stood up and one of them had a gun.
00:22:53.118 --> 00:22:55.287
And i remember looking at the gun being pointed at me
00:22:55.287 --> 00:22:59.258
And the last noise that i remember hearing
00:22:59.258 --> 00:23:02.228
Was the gunshot go off.
00:23:02.228 --> 00:23:03.095
(loud gunshot)
00:23:03.095 --> 00:23:05.464
- [narrator] drew anderson was on a crash course
00:23:05.464 --> 00:23:07.433
With destruction long before he was shot in the face
00:23:07.433 --> 00:23:10.769
During a random home invasion.
00:23:10.769 --> 00:23:13.339
He was adopted from korea
00:23:13.339 --> 00:23:14.707
By military parents when he was a child.
00:23:14.707 --> 00:23:17.142
They moved frequently,
00:23:17.142 --> 00:23:18.777
Leaving drew longing for a sense of identity.
00:23:18.777 --> 00:23:21.514
- you know, i was given up at birth
00:23:22.581 --> 00:23:24.550
And so i just really struggled, you know,
00:23:24.550 --> 00:23:27.720
To identify with where i belonged and who i was.
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:30.723
And so i just literally became a kid who existed
00:23:30.723 --> 00:23:34.894
Until it was time to exist somewhere else.
00:23:34.894 --> 00:23:37.396
- [narrator] when he was 14,
00:23:37.396 --> 00:23:38.964
His parents retired in san antonio.
00:23:38.964 --> 00:23:41.534
Desperate for friendships,
00:23:41.534 --> 00:23:42.968
Drew quickly got in with a rough crowd.
00:23:42.968 --> 00:23:45.704
- i wanted to belong to something.
00:23:45.704 --> 00:23:47.606
And so i started to look for that
00:23:47.606 --> 00:23:50.142
And it ended up being the people who wanted
00:23:50.142 --> 00:23:53.412
To take advantage of my vulnerability
00:23:53.412 --> 00:23:55.548
And my emotional, you know, situation,
00:23:56.649 --> 00:23:58.884
Where i was literally just desperately searching
00:23:58.884 --> 00:24:02.354
For somebody to accept me.
00:24:02.354 --> 00:24:04.290
You know, i went from being a pretty innocent, silent kid,
00:24:04.290 --> 00:24:07.293
To being very vocal, very aggressive,
00:24:07.293 --> 00:24:09.895
Very outspoken, smoking weed, drinking,
00:24:09.895 --> 00:24:14.433
Small criminal stuff like theft
00:24:14.433 --> 00:24:16.869
And breaking into people's homes.
00:24:17.836 --> 00:24:20.005
And it just, it moved very, very quickly
00:24:20.005 --> 00:24:21.941
Because i was finally getting acceptance, affirmation,
00:24:21.941 --> 00:24:24.910
And i felt as if i belonged to something.
00:24:24.910 --> 00:24:27.446
- [narrator] drew left home at 17
00:24:27.446 --> 00:24:29.348
And felt empowered to explore his new identity.
00:24:29.348 --> 00:24:32.351
Cocaine use became a daily obsession.
00:24:32.351 --> 00:24:35.054
- i became lawless.
00:24:35.054 --> 00:24:36.155
Drugs all day, high on cocaine.
00:24:36.155 --> 00:24:38.424
You know, now i'm going to rob people,
00:24:38.424 --> 00:24:40.426
Now i'm going to sell at a higher ratio.
00:24:41.560 --> 00:24:42.861
I'm gonna sell more, i'm gonna make more money.
00:24:42.861 --> 00:24:45.297
And so the floodgates
00:24:45.297 --> 00:24:46.532
Of criminal activity just opened all the way up.
00:24:47.800 --> 00:24:50.603
- [narrator] cocaine fueled him
00:24:50.603 --> 00:24:51.937
And gave drew a feeling of invincibility.
00:24:51.937 --> 00:24:54.707
People respect me more when i'm on this stuff.
00:24:54.707 --> 00:24:57.776
People take me more seriously when i'm on this stuff.
00:24:57.776 --> 00:25:00.479
And so it felt as if next to a heartbeat
00:25:00.479 --> 00:25:03.782
That it was the the second most necessary thing
00:25:03.782 --> 00:25:06.051
In my life to be on.
00:25:06.051 --> 00:25:07.319
I was definitely addicted,
00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:09.922
But addiction wasn't even how i felt.
00:25:09.922 --> 00:25:11.323
It, it was just, i need this because it makes me
00:25:11.323 --> 00:25:14.259
Who i am.
00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:15.527
Then in 2012,
00:25:15.527 --> 00:25:16.929
Drew confronted the men who broke into his home.
00:25:16.929 --> 00:25:19.798
The bullet to his face lacerated his brain instead
00:25:19.798 --> 00:25:23.035
Of traveling right through it.
00:25:23.035 --> 00:25:24.937
He woke days later in the hospital,
00:25:24.937 --> 00:25:26.939
Broken and helpless.
00:25:26.939 --> 00:25:29.341
- when i woke up, i couldn't hear out of my right ear.
00:25:29.341 --> 00:25:33.412
I couldn't open my mouth and speak.
00:25:33.412 --> 00:25:36.015
The first question i had
00:25:36.015 --> 00:25:37.750
That i wrote on my little board was, what happened?
00:25:37.750 --> 00:25:41.353
You know, and they're like,
00:25:42.154 --> 00:25:43.622
You got shot with a .45 caliber handgun
00:25:43.622 --> 00:25:45.858
From nearly point blank range
00:25:45.858 --> 00:25:48.193
And you should not be alive.
00:25:48.994 --> 00:25:50.663
I had a nurse that was assigned to my room,
00:25:51.830 --> 00:25:53.632
One of the very first days i was there.
00:25:53.632 --> 00:25:55.701
She sat in a chair next to me and started to read the bible
00:25:55.701 --> 00:26:00.773
And started to pray.
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:03.242
And i wish i could have told her to leave,
00:26:04.343 --> 00:26:05.878
Or, you know, to get out
00:26:05.878 --> 00:26:07.246
Because that's definitely what i wanted her to do.
00:26:07.246 --> 00:26:10.182
But i couldn't, 'cause my mouth was wired shut.
00:26:10.182 --> 00:26:13.686
- [narrator] his nurse continued to visit drew
00:26:13.686 --> 00:26:16.121
And read the bible faithfully for the next 90 days.
00:26:16.121 --> 00:26:19.792
- she just stayed consistent.
00:26:19.792 --> 00:26:21.994
Came in, told me, i've looked at your chart.
00:26:21.994 --> 00:26:24.329
I know what you've been through.
00:26:24.329 --> 00:26:25.698
I know that you got this going on.
00:26:25.698 --> 00:26:27.232
You shouldn't be alive, but you're alive
00:26:27.232 --> 00:26:29.134
And god has plans for you.
00:26:29.134 --> 00:26:31.303
You know, god wants to do something in your life.
00:26:31.303 --> 00:26:34.406
And you know, over time as it passed
00:26:34.406 --> 00:26:35.774
And her consistency grew, i just submitted to it.
00:26:35.774 --> 00:26:38.911
By the time i left the hospital, you know,
00:26:38.911 --> 00:26:41.113
She asked me a question
00:26:41.113 --> 00:26:42.781
And she was like, you know, promise me
00:26:42.781 --> 00:26:44.149
That you're gonna go find a church.
00:26:44.149 --> 00:26:46.952
She had earned my trust
00:26:46.952 --> 00:26:48.387
And she had earned my respect and her consistency.
00:26:48.387 --> 00:26:50.389
And so i told her i would.
00:26:50.389 --> 00:26:52.257
- [narrator] the very next day, drew stepped into a church.
00:26:53.659 --> 00:26:55.928
In a moment, he found what he had longed
00:26:55.928 --> 00:26:57.996
For his entire life.
00:26:57.996 --> 00:27:00.466
- i walk into this church and got watery eyes
00:27:00.466 --> 00:27:04.369
And i don't really understand why.
00:27:04.369 --> 00:27:07.039
But then the pastor at the time
00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:09.475
Has an impromptu altar call right in the middle of worship,
00:27:10.876 --> 00:27:13.245
Offering people the chance to accept jesus
00:27:13.245 --> 00:27:17.149
As their lord and savior.
00:27:17.149 --> 00:27:18.884
And i just wept man.
00:27:19.551 --> 00:27:20.919
I accepted jesus as my lord and savior.
00:27:20.919 --> 00:27:23.422
I felt this just this weight come off of me
00:27:23.422 --> 00:27:26.291
And i was just crying, unexplainably crying.
00:27:26.291 --> 00:27:29.795
Full peace had come over me.
00:27:29.795 --> 00:27:33.732
- [narrator] drew was set free from cocaine
00:27:34.933 --> 00:27:37.503
And his identity was redefined
00:27:37.503 --> 00:27:39.371
As he immersed himself in the bible
00:27:39.371 --> 00:27:41.373
And his new church community.
00:27:41.373 --> 00:27:43.408
- when i to to read his word, i felt different.
00:27:43.408 --> 00:27:45.911
When i started to pray, i felt the peace
00:27:45.911 --> 00:27:48.046
That i had always looked for.
00:27:48.046 --> 00:27:49.515
I started to read my identity in a book
00:27:49.515 --> 00:27:52.518
And found my identity in the lord.
00:27:52.518 --> 00:27:55.420
- [narrator] drew says he is thankful his life was spared
00:27:55.420 --> 00:27:58.590
And for a second chance to find meaning
00:27:58.590 --> 00:28:00.959
And purpose in the time he's been given.
00:28:00.959 --> 00:28:04.263
- i lost so much time.
00:28:04.263 --> 00:28:06.098
I lost a lot of people.
00:28:06.098 --> 00:28:08.467
I lost, you know, time even with my parents,
00:28:08.467 --> 00:28:11.804
And man, god has restored it all.
00:28:11.804 --> 00:28:13.739
You know, beautiful wife, ministry,
00:28:13.739 --> 00:28:17.042
Tons of spiritual kids now 'cause i'm a youth pastor
00:28:17.042 --> 00:28:19.845
And i'm so grateful that jesus stepped in
00:28:21.013 --> 00:28:24.249
And that jesus made himself known to me
00:28:25.384 --> 00:28:27.619
When i would never have sought him out.
00:28:27.619 --> 00:28:31.657
- he comes after us.
00:28:32.324 --> 00:28:33.859
He comes after us because he loves us,
00:28:33.859 --> 00:28:36.428
Because he sees us in our lostness trying
00:28:36.428 --> 00:28:40.098
To figure out who we are.
00:28:40.098 --> 00:28:42.301
Don't you think everybody goes through
00:28:42.301 --> 00:28:43.969
That at some point in their life?
00:28:43.969 --> 00:28:45.470
It's not just what is my life about?
00:28:45.470 --> 00:28:47.506
It's who am i?
00:28:47.506 --> 00:28:48.507
Why am i here?
00:28:48.507 --> 00:28:50.375
I mean, i think most of us ask that question at some point.
00:28:50.375 --> 00:28:53.245
Some of us take a longer journey than others finding it
00:28:53.245 --> 00:28:56.114
And some don't ever find it, but you are meant to find it.
00:28:56.114 --> 00:29:01.153
I love the fact that drew says,
00:29:01.987 --> 00:29:03.488
"as that faithfulness nurse read the word of god,
00:29:03.488 --> 00:29:06.792
He began to hear who he was".
00:29:06.792 --> 00:29:09.361
You know, god doesn't keep a secret from us.
00:29:09.361 --> 00:29:11.730
He wants us to know him.
00:29:11.730 --> 00:29:13.665
We are the ones who shy away from coming to him,
00:29:13.665 --> 00:29:16.802
Shy away from his words, shy away from even the message
00:29:16.802 --> 00:29:19.972
Of his love because we wanna do it our way,
00:29:19.972 --> 00:29:23.242
Because we think we've got the answers.
00:29:23.242 --> 00:29:25.177
Because we think we've figured out how to belong,
00:29:25.177 --> 00:29:27.679
How to feel special,
00:29:27.679 --> 00:29:28.981
How to feel like our lives are significant.
00:29:28.981 --> 00:29:31.450
The search for significance,
00:29:32.251 --> 00:29:33.952
It's in all of us.
00:29:33.952 --> 00:29:36.021
Why are we here?
00:29:36.021 --> 00:29:38.290
You know, until you really meet the one
00:29:38.290 --> 00:29:40.926
Who created you to be here,
00:29:40.926 --> 00:29:42.828
Who created you with intention and purpose,
00:29:42.828 --> 00:29:45.364
It's hard to get an answer to any of that.
00:29:45.364 --> 00:29:48.333
You are a creation of the living god.
00:29:48.333 --> 00:29:52.070
He saw you.
00:29:52.638 --> 00:29:53.939
The bible says these are the kinds of of bits
00:29:53.939 --> 00:29:57.175
Of information that put the whole picture together.
00:29:57.175 --> 00:29:59.711
He saw you while you were being formed
00:29:59.711 --> 00:30:01.747
In your mother's womb.
00:30:01.747 --> 00:30:03.315
He knew you before then
00:30:03.315 --> 00:30:05.417
And had ordained your days, that says.
00:30:05.417 --> 00:30:08.120
And then it talks about a god
00:30:08.120 --> 00:30:10.122
Who loved you enough seeing you in your lostness,
00:30:10.122 --> 00:30:13.859
Who came himself to suffer so that you wouldn't have to,
00:30:13.859 --> 00:30:18.330
To die so that you wouldn't have to,
00:30:19.398 --> 00:30:22.267
To pay the price so that you could have eternity with him,
00:30:22.267 --> 00:30:25.904
With this one who loves you
00:30:25.904 --> 00:30:27.873
Beyond anything the world can offer you.
00:30:27.873 --> 00:30:30.509
If you are someone today who is searching for significance,
00:30:31.944 --> 00:30:34.947
If you don't understand why you're here, come to jesus.
00:30:34.947 --> 00:30:39.384
I know that can sound so simple,
00:30:39.384 --> 00:30:41.186
But what a difference it makes in your life
00:30:41.186 --> 00:30:43.422
And what have you got to lose?
00:30:43.422 --> 00:30:45.257
When i made a commitment to christ,
00:30:45.257 --> 00:30:46.825
It was pretty, pretty raw.
00:30:46.825 --> 00:30:49.161
I just said, jesus, if you're there,
00:30:49.161 --> 00:30:50.796
I give you what's left of my life.
00:30:50.796 --> 00:30:51.997
And if you're not, i'm no worse off
00:30:51.997 --> 00:30:54.032
Than i was before i said this prayer,
00:30:54.032 --> 00:30:55.901
But i meant it
00:30:55.901 --> 00:30:57.502
And he knew i meant it and he came
00:30:57.502 --> 00:31:00.906
And he waited while i read his word, while i grew,
00:31:00.906 --> 00:31:04.042
While i recognized the things
00:31:04.042 --> 00:31:05.677
In my life that i needed to change.
00:31:05.677 --> 00:31:07.779
God never took anything from me.
00:31:07.779 --> 00:31:09.915
He changed me and i got rid of the junk in my life.
00:31:09.915 --> 00:31:13.285
He'll do that for you too.
00:31:13.285 --> 00:31:15.287
He loves you so much more than you could ask for or imagine.
00:31:15.287 --> 00:31:20.425
Just pray this prayer.
00:31:21.126 --> 00:31:22.928
Jesus, i want to know you.
00:31:23.695 --> 00:31:26.665
I wanna know who i am and why you created me.
00:31:26.665 --> 00:31:29.668
I wanna know where we fit together in this world
00:31:29.668 --> 00:31:33.338
And the the life that you've given me.
00:31:33.338 --> 00:31:35.741
I wanna be forgiven because i've made a lot of dumb choices
00:31:37.142 --> 00:31:39.878
And i've done many foolish things.
00:31:39.878 --> 00:31:41.613
I've hurt others.
00:31:41.613 --> 00:31:42.547
I've hurt myself and jesus,
00:31:42.547 --> 00:31:45.450
I'm asking you to forgive me.
00:31:45.450 --> 00:31:48.020
There's no other name under heaven by which men may be saved
00:31:49.421 --> 00:31:52.124
And i declare your name today.
00:31:52.124 --> 00:31:54.026
Jesus, be my savior.
00:31:54.026 --> 00:31:55.560
Be my lord.
00:31:55.560 --> 00:31:57.162
Show me how to live.
00:31:57.162 --> 00:31:58.397
Teach me your ways.
00:31:58.397 --> 00:31:59.731
Fill me with your holy spirit
00:31:59.731 --> 00:32:01.833
So that i can live differently, live for you, live with you.
00:32:03.301 --> 00:32:06.338
I'm asking this in your mighty name.
00:32:06.338 --> 00:32:08.774
Jesus, amen.
00:32:08.774 --> 00:32:10.575
If you've prayed that prayer, then life is about to begin
00:32:12.010 --> 00:32:15.147
For you in a really special way.
00:32:15.147 --> 00:32:17.149
We've got something to help you grow.
00:32:17.149 --> 00:32:18.917
It's called "a new day."
00:32:18.917 --> 00:32:20.185
It's a packet put together just for you.
00:32:20.185 --> 00:32:22.421
Wanna encourage you also to get ahold of a bible.
00:32:22.421 --> 00:32:24.923
The word of god will change your life.
00:32:24.923 --> 00:32:28.260
If you'd like to get ahold of our "new day" packet,
00:32:28.260 --> 00:32:30.462
We'd love to send it to you.
00:32:30.462 --> 00:32:31.563
It's absolutely free.
00:32:31.563 --> 00:32:32.831
So is the number to get it, 1-800-700-7000.
00:32:32.831 --> 00:32:36.234
Just call now.
00:32:36.234 --> 00:32:37.803
Say i prayed that prayer and i'd like the "new day" packet.
00:32:37.803 --> 00:32:39.638
Send it to you, gordon
00:32:39.638 --> 00:32:41.540
- coming up later, their loved one was in the hospital
00:32:41.540 --> 00:32:44.576
And only one thing could help him.
00:32:44.576 --> 00:32:47.112
See how their prayers led this man to make a full recovery.
00:32:47.112 --> 00:32:52.851
(soft music)
00:32:53.385 --> 00:32:58.523
- i start drinking alcohol under the pretense
00:32:59.724 --> 00:33:02.527
Of i'm celebrating.
00:33:02.527 --> 00:33:04.362
I wasn't celebrating, i was medicating myself.
00:33:04.362 --> 00:33:07.499
I felt completely defeated and broken.
00:33:08.600 --> 00:33:11.269
I was weak in my relationship with god
00:33:11.269 --> 00:33:13.538
And i was just a weak human being
00:33:13.538 --> 00:33:16.241
And god got further and further away.
00:33:16.241 --> 00:33:18.610
When you feel his presence
00:33:19.377 --> 00:33:20.912
And you walk away from it, there's guilt, there's shame,
00:33:20.912 --> 00:33:24.349
But there's also a sort of a sense that
00:33:24.349 --> 00:33:27.018
It'll never happen for you again.
00:33:27.018 --> 00:33:29.254
My daughter, who was 12 at the time, she said,
00:33:29.254 --> 00:33:31.957
"daddy, i want you to be happy.
00:33:31.957 --> 00:33:34.226
I want you to know jesus."
00:33:34.226 --> 00:33:36.428
God started to reveal himself to me again
00:33:37.596 --> 00:33:40.665
And he started to melt away the ice that was my heart.
00:33:40.665 --> 00:33:45.270
I'm trying to talk people into this life
00:33:46.404 --> 00:33:49.441
That is second to none.
00:33:49.441 --> 00:33:51.676
This life of failing christ's presence in your life.
00:33:51.676 --> 00:33:56.615
(soft music)
00:33:57.149 --> 00:33:59.618
- [narrator] melissa and her husband rick,
00:33:59.618 --> 00:34:01.052
Have come a long way from when they met.
00:34:01.052 --> 00:34:03.221
Melissa was in real estate.
00:34:03.221 --> 00:34:04.856
Rick had been living on credit cards,
00:34:04.856 --> 00:34:07.058
Trying to start a number of businesses
00:34:07.058 --> 00:34:09.327
And was $80,000 in debt.
00:34:09.327 --> 00:34:11.796
All the while the hinnant were tithing
00:34:11.796 --> 00:34:14.466
And the newly married couple started working their
00:34:14.466 --> 00:34:16.568
Way out of the red.
00:34:16.568 --> 00:34:17.936
- i think i had bought into society saying,
00:34:17.936 --> 00:34:21.373
Here's what you should have.
00:34:21.373 --> 00:34:22.707
I simply asked god, do i have money before you?
00:34:22.707 --> 00:34:26.011
I asked god to forgive me instantly.
00:34:26.011 --> 00:34:28.980
I told god whether i make a lot of money or not,
00:34:28.980 --> 00:34:33.084
I'm done striving.
00:34:33.084 --> 00:34:34.819
- today, rick and melissa have three children
00:34:34.819 --> 00:34:37.389
And choose to live way below their means
00:34:37.389 --> 00:34:39.558
So they can help the poor.
00:34:39.558 --> 00:34:41.359
They've already built 13 orphanages
00:34:41.359 --> 00:34:43.695
And a freedom house in india.
00:34:43.695 --> 00:34:45.597
- what i loved about operation blessing
00:34:45.597 --> 00:34:47.332
Is that we were really able to see the fruit of that gift.
00:34:47.332 --> 00:34:51.336
- now i have the hunger to make more money
00:34:51.336 --> 00:34:53.805
So we truly can give to all of these places,
00:34:53.805 --> 00:34:57.075
'cause there's a lot of need out there.
00:34:57.075 --> 00:34:59.678
(soft music)
00:35:00.212 --> 00:35:29.674
- the only way i can describe it is i was supernaturally
00:35:31.076 --> 00:35:33.545
Delivered from a nine year cocaine addiction.
00:35:33.545 --> 00:35:37.315
I loved jesus.
00:35:37.315 --> 00:35:38.650
I was a christian, but i was deeply in pain.
00:35:38.650 --> 00:35:41.419
I was physically addicted.
00:35:41.419 --> 00:35:42.954
I was mentally addicted.
00:35:42.954 --> 00:35:44.022
I was all of those things.
00:35:44.022 --> 00:35:45.056
I knew how bad off i was
00:35:45.056 --> 00:35:48.293
And what i felt him saying was,
00:35:49.094 --> 00:35:50.929
I created you for more than this my girl.
00:35:50.929 --> 00:35:53.498
God filled those holes with a beautiful message to say,
00:35:53.498 --> 00:35:57.168
You are enough in me.
00:35:57.168 --> 00:36:00.038
- i just turned and excruciating pain
00:36:01.139 --> 00:36:04.342
Came in my knee on the inside
00:36:04.342 --> 00:36:08.079
And it was like a jabbing knife.
00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:10.382
I made it to the doctor.
00:36:10.382 --> 00:36:12.150
Found out it was a torn meniscus.
00:36:12.150 --> 00:36:14.085
So having the knee injury,
00:36:14.085 --> 00:36:16.855
Having to slow down was depressing.
00:36:16.855 --> 00:36:20.392
I was like, lord, heal this.
00:36:20.392 --> 00:36:22.460
Sitting on the couch, the 700 club came on
00:36:22.460 --> 00:36:25.463
And that's when i saw gordon on.
00:36:26.264 --> 00:36:29.167
- we say out loud to it, be healed,
00:36:29.167 --> 00:36:33.538
And be made whole.
00:36:33.538 --> 00:36:35.707
May all pain leave me,
00:36:35.707 --> 00:36:39.577
In jesus' name.
00:36:40.111 --> 00:36:41.279
I receive it now.
00:36:41.913 --> 00:36:43.915
Now what you couldn't do before, do now.
00:36:43.915 --> 00:36:46.885
- [speaker] by faith i'm going to do this.
00:36:46.885 --> 00:36:49.421
By faith, i'm gonna walk
00:36:49.421 --> 00:36:50.388
And i was walking.
00:36:50.388 --> 00:36:51.323
It wasn't hurting.
00:36:51.323 --> 00:36:52.824
I know that god healed me beyond a shadow of a doubt.
00:36:52.824 --> 00:36:56.795
(soft music)
00:36:57.329 --> 00:37:01.666
- one meal a day,
00:37:02.300 --> 00:37:03.835
That's all isabelle and her son could afford to eat.
00:37:03.835 --> 00:37:06.971
Sometimes they went the whole day with no food at all.
00:37:06.971 --> 00:37:10.909
Then operation blessing came to their village
00:37:10.909 --> 00:37:13.545
And now this mother and son eat three meals a day.
00:37:13.545 --> 00:37:16.915
Here's how you help make that happen.
00:37:16.915 --> 00:37:20.485
- [narrator] isabel is a single mother raising
00:37:21.653 --> 00:37:23.455
Her son marco in iquitos, peru.
00:37:23.455 --> 00:37:25.957
To support him, she grows and sells chili peppers
00:37:25.957 --> 00:37:29.127
And she makes and sells corn tamales on the main
00:37:29.127 --> 00:37:31.930
Street of her community.
00:37:31.930 --> 00:37:33.898
Five-year-old marco likes to help.
00:37:33.898 --> 00:37:36.401
- [interpreter] i help my mom
00:37:36.401 --> 00:37:37.669
To make the tamales and with the housework.
00:37:37.669 --> 00:37:40.138
- [narrator] but the money isabel earned
00:37:40.138 --> 00:37:41.506
Working seven days a week was often not enough
00:37:41.506 --> 00:37:44.409
To restock the business
00:37:44.409 --> 00:37:45.910
And buy food for the day.
00:37:45.910 --> 00:37:48.646
- [interpreter] i typically only make enough for us
00:37:48.646 --> 00:37:50.849
To eat one meal a day.
00:37:50.849 --> 00:37:52.984
- [narrator] there were times when marco said
00:37:52.984 --> 00:37:54.486
They went the whole day without eating.
00:37:54.486 --> 00:37:56.921
- [interpreter] i remember a day
00:37:56.921 --> 00:37:58.056
When i didn't have anything to eat.
00:37:58.056 --> 00:38:01.126
Then a neighbor gave us some food.
00:38:01.126 --> 00:38:03.395
I decided to give it to my son.
00:38:03.395 --> 00:38:06.097
That night, i tried to make him fall asleep
00:38:06.097 --> 00:38:09.701
So that he would not ask me for food.
00:38:09.701 --> 00:38:12.437
- [narrator] then operation blessing came to the community
00:38:12.437 --> 00:38:15.173
And trained isabel how to raise and sell broiler chickens.
00:38:15.173 --> 00:38:19.010
After the training, operation blessing built a coop
00:38:19.010 --> 00:38:22.147
And gave her 100 broiler chickens
00:38:22.147 --> 00:38:24.349
To start the poultry business.
00:38:24.349 --> 00:38:26.251
- [interpreter] they not only gave me a shed,
00:38:26.251 --> 00:38:27.986
But feeders for food and water,
00:38:27.986 --> 00:38:30.288
Everything needed to raise the chickens.
00:38:30.288 --> 00:38:33.324
- [interpreter] when mom sells chickens,
00:38:33.324 --> 00:38:35.160
She buys food for me.
00:38:35.160 --> 00:38:36.795
Now, we eat three times a day.
00:38:37.629 --> 00:38:40.265
- [interpreter] i have now been raising
00:38:40.265 --> 00:38:41.666
And selling chickens for two years.
00:38:41.666 --> 00:38:44.235
With the profits,
00:38:44.235 --> 00:38:45.570
I am increasing the business thanks to god
00:38:45.570 --> 00:38:48.773
And the people who have blessed my family.
00:38:48.773 --> 00:38:52.644
- and that thank you goes to your home and to you.
00:38:53.912 --> 00:38:57.215
If you're a member of the 700 club,
00:38:57.215 --> 00:38:59.851
Just imagine all across the globe,
00:38:59.851 --> 00:39:03.154
People giving thanks to god because you cared,
00:39:03.154 --> 00:39:05.557
Because you came to them in their hour of need.
00:39:05.557 --> 00:39:08.193
Not with some temporary handout,
00:39:08.193 --> 00:39:10.395
But with a hand up to say, we believe in you.
00:39:10.395 --> 00:39:13.531
We know that god has a hope and a future for you.
00:39:13.531 --> 00:39:16.234
We want to give you the dignity
00:39:16.234 --> 00:39:18.369

And here we'll provide so that you can do that.

If you want to be a part of this,
00:39:28.680 --> 00:39:30.448

That's 65 cents a day.

- [speaker] when i was a young girl,
00:41:43.982 --> 00:41:45.550
I went to fetch water for my mother.
00:41:45.550 --> 00:41:47.552
The weight of the water made my neck hurt so bad.
00:41:47.552 --> 00:41:50.321
I just poured the water out
00:41:50.321 --> 00:41:51.556
And went home with an empty container.
00:41:51.556 --> 00:41:53.891
The stream is very far and i go four times a day.
00:41:53.891 --> 00:41:57.795
I get home exhausted.
00:41:57.795 --> 00:41:59.430
I feel terrible drinking that water
00:41:59.430 --> 00:42:01.566
And giving it to my family.
00:42:01.566 --> 00:42:03.234
We often get intense to make eggs and vomit.
00:42:03.234 --> 00:42:06.738
When my son was three, he got very sick from the water.
00:42:06.738 --> 00:42:11.109
Thank you operation blessing
00:42:11.109 --> 00:42:12.443

00:42:12.443 --> 00:42:14.579
When you came, we were all so grateful
00:42:14.579 --> 00:42:17.382
We could not hold back our joy.
00:42:17.382 --> 00:42:19.784
I've never had this kind of water before.
00:42:19.784 --> 00:42:22.553
Every time i drink it,
00:42:22.553 --> 00:42:23.888
I feel good and healthy.
00:42:23.888 --> 00:42:26.224
With the world this close,

00:43:14.072 --> 00:43:17.208
That there could be a miscarriage.
00:43:17.208 --> 00:43:20.011
I don't think i really processed it
00:43:20.011 --> 00:43:21.879
Until we were driving home.
00:43:21.879 --> 00:43:23.414

00:43:23.414 --> 00:43:25.717
- [speaker] god, if this doesn't happen, i still love you.
00:43:25.717 --> 00:43:29.187

(soft music)
00:43:36.294 --> 00:43:41.899
I was surrendering myself.
00:43:42.667 --> 00:43:45.203
I felt held
00:43:45.203 --> 00:43:49.707
- well, we saw the heartbeat
00:43:50.508 --> 00:43:51.809
And that was like, okay.
00:43:51.809 --> 00:43:53.678
- we've never been this far.
00:43:53.678 --> 00:43:55.513
- eight years of of wanting that moment.
00:43:55.513 --> 00:43:58.349

00:45:21.899 --> 00:45:24.936
The fact that he walked out is nothing short of a miracle.
00:45:24.936 --> 00:45:29.707
(soft music)
00:45:30.241 --> 00:45:32.076
- the pain that i felt was so sharp
00:45:32.076 --> 00:45:34.612
And so sudden
00:45:34.612 --> 00:45:36.147
That it felt like i had been shot in the chest.
00:45:36.147 --> 00:45:38.649
- [narrator] latroy dixon was at work
00:45:39.750 --> 00:45:41.285
When the chest pain started.
00:45:41.285 --> 00:45:43.254
At home, later that night, the pain had gotten worse
00:45:43.254 --> 00:45:46.457
And he drove himself to the er.
00:45:46.457 --> 00:45:48.893
Tests showed he had an aortic dissection,
00:45:48.893 --> 00:45:51.562
A tear in the main artery that carries blood from the heart
00:45:51.562 --> 00:45:55.099
That was causing massive internal bleeding.
00:45:55.099 --> 00:45:58.035
Latroy, a nurse's aide, knew it could be fatal.
00:45:58.035 --> 00:46:01.572
- i knew by this point i was in a lot of trouble.
00:46:02.707 --> 00:46:04.642
Then i began to appeal to god,
00:46:04.642 --> 00:46:05.643
'cause i thought i was gonna die.
00:46:05.643 --> 00:46:07.011
I really did.
00:46:07.011 --> 00:46:08.246
God, just don't let me die like this.
00:46:08.246 --> 00:46:10.615
- [narrative] latroy got word out to relatives
00:46:10.615 --> 00:46:12.516
And told them he was scheduled for surgery the next morning.
00:46:12.516 --> 00:46:16.187
As soon as his aunt sharon heard,
00:46:16.187 --> 00:46:18.189
She went to the hospital praying the whole way.
00:46:18.189 --> 00:46:22.126
- that was the scariest thing to me in my life
00:46:22.126 --> 00:46:24.228
To see him like that.
00:46:24.228 --> 00:46:25.396
'cause this was always the strong guy
00:46:25.396 --> 00:46:27.131
That prayed over everybody.
00:46:27.131 --> 00:46:29.100
- [narrator] the next morning, just before the surgery,
00:46:29.100 --> 00:46:31.502
Latroy's younger brother, tremaine, arrived.
00:46:31.502 --> 00:46:34.972
- i was terrified to see him laying on that bed
00:46:34.972 --> 00:46:37.642
With all those cords and it was,
00:46:37.642 --> 00:46:40.878
It was tough.
00:46:40.878 --> 00:46:42.346
And this is my brother.
00:46:42.346 --> 00:46:43.814
He has to make it.
00:46:43.814 --> 00:46:44.782
You don't understand.
00:46:44.782 --> 00:46:45.616
He cannot not make it.
00:46:45.616 --> 00:46:47.351
He has to make it.
00:46:47.351 --> 00:46:48.886
- [narrator] doctors told the family
00:46:48.886 --> 00:46:50.321
To be prepared for the worst.
00:46:50.321 --> 00:46:52.990
Half the people who experience this condition
00:46:52.990 --> 00:46:55.526
Don't live more than 48 hours.
00:46:55.526 --> 00:46:57.895
In fact, doctors were shocked
00:46:57.895 --> 00:46:59.964
Latroy was able to get himself to the hospital
00:46:59.964 --> 00:47:02.733
Before having a stroke.
00:47:02.733 --> 00:47:05.069
- based on what they were saying, i'll be honest,
00:47:05.069 --> 00:47:07.672
I had some doubts.
00:47:07.672 --> 00:47:09.340
Not so much in what christ could do,
00:47:10.341 --> 00:47:14.245
More of this could be it.
00:47:14.245 --> 00:47:17.081
I just kind of had to give it over to him.
00:47:18.249 --> 00:47:19.784
But that was tough.
00:47:19.784 --> 00:47:21.052
- [narrator] it took doctors 12 hours
00:47:22.053 --> 00:47:24.188
To repair the torn artery.
00:47:24.188 --> 00:47:26.524
During the procedure, latroy had a stroke,
00:47:26.524 --> 00:47:29.460
Which complicated his condition even further.
00:47:29.460 --> 00:47:32.663
Latroy's life was still in danger
00:47:32.663 --> 00:47:35.199
And doctors put him in a medically induced coma.
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:38.736
They told the family that if he survives,
00:47:38.736 --> 00:47:41.772
He might be permanently disabled,
00:47:41.772 --> 00:47:44.075
Unable to walk or even talk.
00:47:44.075 --> 00:47:46.877
- they're saying that it's very possible he can wake up.
00:47:46.877 --> 00:47:50.047
He just won't be that latroy.
00:47:50.047 --> 00:47:53.351
That's the part that i feared the most,
00:47:53.351 --> 00:47:55.386
'cause i need him back.
00:47:55.386 --> 00:47:57.922
Me and god tuggle with that part.
00:47:57.922 --> 00:47:59.890
I'm saying, lord, i want him back this way.
00:48:01.025 --> 00:48:03.627
- everything is done on god's time.
00:48:03.627 --> 00:48:05.162
It's his will.
00:48:05.162 --> 00:48:06.364
So that's the only thing we could do.
00:48:06.364 --> 00:48:08.099
But for god to have his will and not give up.
00:48:08.099 --> 00:48:11.469
- [narrator] finally, his family could see him.
00:48:11.469 --> 00:48:14.271
- the hardest moment was seeing him laying on his back
00:48:14.271 --> 00:48:18.509
And his chest going up and down.
00:48:18.509 --> 00:48:21.078
He didn't look like my nephew.
00:48:21.078 --> 00:48:23.581
I tried to stand there.
00:48:24.248 --> 00:48:26.584
I can see him right now.
00:48:27.251 --> 00:48:31.956
It was scary.
00:48:32.523 --> 00:48:35.659
And i tried not to show fear
00:48:34.091 --> 00:48:37.828
'cause i wanted to be a strong one.
00:48:38.796 --> 00:48:42.066
But it was hard.
00:48:42.633 --> 00:48:44.001
It was.
00:48:44.001 --> 00:48:45.302
- [narrator] in the following days,
00:48:45.302 --> 00:48:47.405
It became clear latroy would live.
00:48:47.405 --> 00:48:49.373
Meanwhile, other relatives, friends,
00:48:49.373 --> 00:48:51.642
And church members gathered at the hospital
00:48:51.642 --> 00:48:54.278
Joining in prayer for latroy's complete healing.
00:48:54.278 --> 00:48:58.182
- there's nothing else to do but talk to god.
00:48:58.182 --> 00:49:01.018
Thank god for the deliverance
00:49:01.886 --> 00:49:04.955
And thank god for being the almighty.
00:49:04.955 --> 00:49:07.858
That's all we had to do.
00:49:07.858 --> 00:49:09.827
- [narrator] eight days after his surgery,
00:49:10.928 --> 00:49:12.463
Latroy was brought out of the coma.
00:49:12.463 --> 00:49:15.199
The stroke had left him paralyzed on his right side.
00:49:15.199 --> 00:49:18.936
Then latroy, who's also a pastor,
00:49:18.936 --> 00:49:22.306
Realized something else was wrong.
00:49:22.306 --> 00:49:24.942
- it's a scary feeling to open your mouth,
00:49:24.942 --> 00:49:29.146
To say something, and literally nothing came out.
00:49:29.146 --> 00:49:33.784
I was asking god, what happened?
00:49:33.784 --> 00:49:35.086
Like, what's going on?
00:49:35.086 --> 00:49:35.953
Why did this happen?
00:49:35.953 --> 00:49:37.788
He just communicated.
00:49:38.489 --> 00:49:39.523
He communicated trust to me.
00:49:39.523 --> 00:49:42.359
Trust
00:49:42.359 --> 00:49:43.260
- [narrator] with latroy now in rehab,
00:49:44.361 --> 00:49:46.397
Relearning how to walk and talk,
00:49:46.397 --> 00:49:48.732
The prayers continued.
00:49:48.732 --> 00:49:50.835
- we know prayer changes things.
00:49:50.835 --> 00:49:52.103
First of all, we know that.
00:49:52.103 --> 00:49:53.571
And we would pray that he would get better
00:49:53.571 --> 00:49:55.873
And we could see progress.
00:49:55.873 --> 00:49:57.441
It was little, it wasn't a whole lot, just a little bit,
00:49:57.441 --> 00:50:00.511
But we, you know, we trust god.
00:50:00.511 --> 00:50:02.446
- [narrator] after three weeks,
00:50:03.280 --> 00:50:04.615
They knew god had answered their prayers
00:50:04.615 --> 00:50:07.751
- as he started to do things normally,
00:50:07.751 --> 00:50:11.288
That's when god start to show me
00:50:11.288 --> 00:50:13.057
That he's gonna be okay.
00:50:13.057 --> 00:50:14.592
- i remember coming up there
00:50:14.592 --> 00:50:16.193
And him saying that he wanted chicken.
00:50:16.193 --> 00:50:18.395
He started talking about food he wanted.
00:50:19.530 --> 00:50:20.831
I said, oh yeah, i know you getting better now.
00:50:20.831 --> 00:50:22.433
You talking about food.
00:50:22.433 --> 00:50:24.301
- [narrator] after another two weeks in rehab,
00:50:24.301 --> 00:50:26.837
Latroy walked out of the hospital on his own.
00:50:26.837 --> 00:50:30.107
- [speaker] he's on his way out y'all, look at him.
00:50:30.107 --> 00:50:32.009
He walking ahead of me.
00:50:32.009 --> 00:50:33.744
Ooh.
00:50:33.744 --> 00:50:34.578
(people clapping)
00:50:34.578 --> 00:50:36.013
- [narrator] now back at work,
00:50:36.013 --> 00:50:37.181
Latroy has regained full mobility
00:50:37.181 --> 00:50:39.650
And has had no complications.
00:50:39.650 --> 00:50:41.952
He and his family are thankful for the care he received
00:50:41.952 --> 00:50:45.723
And for the prayers they believe were key to his survival
00:50:45.723 --> 00:50:49.760
And complete recovery.
00:50:49.760 --> 00:50:51.862
- i've seen god do miraculous things with prayer
00:50:51.862 --> 00:50:55.499
And my story is one of them.
00:50:56.333 --> 00:50:58.536
- he is a miracle.
00:50:58.536 --> 00:50:59.703
He's a walking miracle.
00:50:59.703 --> 00:51:01.372
I want people to know that when you,
00:51:01.372 --> 00:51:03.941
Anything you go through, nothing is too tough for god.
00:51:03.941 --> 00:51:07.945
- the power of god is just, it's amazing.
00:51:09.113 --> 00:51:10.915
I'm at a point where god can do anything.
00:51:10.915 --> 00:51:14.185
- this is what he does.
00:51:14.185 --> 00:51:16.453
This is the work that he does.
00:51:16.453 --> 00:51:18.255
He's accessible, if we reach out to him.
00:51:18.255 --> 00:51:21.091
He's not lying when he says,
00:51:21.091 --> 00:51:22.793
I'm a very present help in the time of trouble,
00:51:22.793 --> 00:51:24.695
Like that's not a lie.
00:51:24.695 --> 00:51:28.666
- and it's not a lie for you.
00:51:29.500 --> 00:51:31.068
He is our very present help and time of trouble.
00:51:31.068 --> 00:51:34.905
He stands, he watches over his word to perform it,
00:51:34.905 --> 00:51:39.877
And who is he going to perform it for?
00:51:39.877 --> 00:51:42.913
Well, he's looking for trust.
00:51:42.913 --> 00:51:46.083
He's looking for faith
00:51:46.083 --> 00:51:47.818
And trust is another way to say faith.
00:51:47.818 --> 00:51:51.922
For latroy, here he is lying in bed.
00:51:51.922 --> 00:51:54.992
He can't talk.
00:51:54.992 --> 00:51:56.694
He's paralyzed and, of course,
00:51:56.694 --> 00:51:59.630
Within himself he's going,
00:51:59.630 --> 00:52:01.699
Why did this happen?
00:52:01.699 --> 00:52:03.634
And we do that.
00:52:03.634 --> 00:52:05.202
We get stuck in,
00:52:05.736 --> 00:52:07.805
Was there some sin that i did
00:52:07.805 --> 00:52:09.873
Or was there something i did wrong?
00:52:09.873 --> 00:52:12.042
All of these things are running through our heads
00:52:12.042 --> 00:52:15.346
And is this fair?
00:52:15.346 --> 00:52:17.214
You know, all of these questions,
00:52:17.214 --> 00:52:20.284
Why, why, why?
00:52:20.284 --> 00:52:21.852
For latroy, god responded to those questions with trust.
00:52:21.852 --> 00:52:27.258
Trust me.
00:52:27.758 --> 00:52:29.193
And you hear it from latroy's wife,
00:52:29.193 --> 00:52:33.597
We trust god.
00:52:34.164 --> 00:52:36.100
In our prayers, we're going to realize we trust god.
00:52:36.100 --> 00:52:41.739
Trust reliance.
00:52:42.273 --> 00:52:45.142
Those are other words
00:52:45.142 --> 00:52:47.044
That can translate, the wonderful greek word behind faith.
00:52:48.612 --> 00:52:51.982
When you call it faith,
00:52:52.650 --> 00:52:54.385
You're looking at something spiritual that you have
00:52:54.385 --> 00:52:56.487
To drum up.
00:52:56.487 --> 00:52:57.521
When you trust god.
00:52:58.188 --> 00:52:59.723
That's not something you drum up.
00:52:59.723 --> 00:53:01.458
When you rely on god.
00:53:01.458 --> 00:53:03.694
That's not something you have to drum up.
00:53:03.694 --> 00:53:05.362
That's just something that you do.
00:53:05.362 --> 00:53:07.698
And in that, you walk into miracle power.
00:53:08.866 --> 00:53:12.336
The eyes of the lord
00:53:13.003 --> 00:53:14.371
Go to and fro over the whole earth
00:53:14.371 --> 00:53:17.841
To show himself strong
00:53:17.841 --> 00:53:20.711
To those whose hearts are loyal to him.
00:53:20.711 --> 00:53:25.282
That's another way to say faith.
00:53:25.282 --> 00:53:27.718
Are you loyal to god?
00:53:27.718 --> 00:53:29.653
Are you trusting god?
00:53:29.653 --> 00:53:31.188
Are you relying on god?
00:53:31.188 --> 00:53:33.424
Do you realize god watches over his word to perform it?
00:53:33.424 --> 00:53:37.061
Do you say yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and amen.
00:53:37.061 --> 00:53:41.532
When you have the wonderful promises of god flowing
00:53:41.532 --> 00:53:45.703
Through your innermost being,
00:53:45.703 --> 00:53:47.738
Well, then you have all the trust and all the reliance
00:53:47.738 --> 00:53:50.974
And all that you need to walk into the reality
00:53:50.974 --> 00:53:55.346
That he is our very present help in time of trouble.
00:53:55.346 --> 00:54:00.417
Now, we're going to pray for you.
00:54:01.285 --> 00:54:03.020
Before we pray, here's some other miracles
00:54:03.020 --> 00:54:05.289
That have happened to people just like you.
00:54:05.289 --> 00:54:07.958
What god has done for others, he will do for you.
00:54:07.958 --> 00:54:11.328
He's no respecter of persons.
00:54:11.328 --> 00:54:13.330
All he is looking for is, are you loyal?
00:54:13.330 --> 00:54:16.433
Do you trust him?
00:54:16.433 --> 00:54:17.401
Do you believe his worth?
00:54:17.401 --> 00:54:19.236
Well, here's deidre by email.
00:54:20.070 --> 00:54:21.338
"i was watching the 700 club for the first time.
00:54:21.338 --> 00:54:24.541
I've been dealing with left jaw pain
00:54:24.541 --> 00:54:26.243
And swelling for two and a half weeks,
00:54:26.243 --> 00:54:28.312
Taking ibuprofen or acetaminophen
00:54:28.312 --> 00:54:30.881
Every four to five hours, day and night.
00:54:30.881 --> 00:54:33.951
I heard them specifically pray for someone dealing
00:54:33.951 --> 00:54:36.754
With left jaw pain and swelling.
00:54:36.754 --> 00:54:39.156
I wondered if it could have possibly been me.
00:54:39.156 --> 00:54:43.427
It was," all caps.
00:54:43.427 --> 00:54:45.963
It was.
00:54:45.963 --> 00:54:47.331
"i've had no pain whatsoever since that prayer.
00:54:47.331 --> 00:54:48.599
I'm still in shock.
00:54:48.599 --> 00:54:50.934
God is good.
00:54:50.934 --> 00:54:52.936
Isn't it?
00:54:52.936 --> 00:54:54.104
- [terry] that's revelation, right?
00:54:54.104 --> 00:54:55.472
Well, this is an answer to prayer also for a year.
00:54:55.472 --> 00:54:58.375
Fawn who lives in san francisco
00:54:58.375 --> 00:55:00.444
Suffered with chronic neck pain,
00:55:00.444 --> 00:55:02.279
Had two bulging or a bulging disc.
00:55:02.279 --> 00:55:04.648
She was in so much pain.
00:55:04.648 --> 00:55:05.983
She was ready to follow the doctor's advice
00:55:05.983 --> 00:55:07.985
And have surgery.
00:55:07.985 --> 00:55:09.353
While she was texting a question
00:55:09.353 --> 00:55:11.455
About the cost of the surgery,
00:55:11.455 --> 00:55:12.923
She had this program on and, gordon,
00:55:12.923 --> 00:55:14.725
She heard you say,
00:55:14.725 --> 00:55:16.126
"there's someone, you've had stiffness on both sides
00:55:16.126 --> 00:55:18.162
Of your neck.
00:55:18.162 --> 00:55:19.496
You've been diagnosed with the bulging disc
00:55:19.496 --> 00:55:20.731
And you're weighing options right now.
00:55:20.731 --> 00:55:22.633
Here's the option for you, believe right now in jesus' name.
00:55:22.633 --> 00:55:26.537
He's touching that neck.
00:55:26.537 --> 00:55:28.005
That disc is going back into place.
00:55:28.005 --> 00:55:30.307
The vertebrae are coming into alignment.
00:55:30.307 --> 00:55:32.309
You are healed in jesus' name."
00:55:32.309 --> 00:55:34.511
Fawn claimed the word.
00:55:34.511 --> 00:55:35.746
Since then, she hasn't suffered
00:55:35.746 --> 00:55:37.214
Or experienced any neck pain.
00:55:37.214 --> 00:55:39.082
She is praising the lord.
00:55:39.082 --> 00:55:41.285

00:55:41.285 --> 00:55:42.886
And in that prayer, let's have,
00:55:42.886 --> 00:55:45.956
In that praise,

Let's have prayer for you.
00:55:46.857 --> 00:55:48.492
Let's pray together.

We come to you with thanksgiving for what you've done,
00:55:51.829 --> 00:55:55.165
The miracles that you've done,
00:55:55.165 --> 00:55:57.301
How you've released people from paralysis,
00:55:57.301 --> 00:55:59.970

00:55:59.970 --> 00:56:02.739

You've lost a couple of teeth.
00:56:46.550 --> 00:56:48.018
I mean, not in a good way,
00:56:48.018 --> 00:56:49.353
Like the dentist hasn't taken them out.
00:56:49.353 --> 00:56:51.021
They've fallen out.
00:56:51.021 --> 00:56:52.155
You have some dental issues going on.
00:56:52.155 --> 00:56:53.657

And in that you now have a weakened heart muscle.

It's specific to the left ventricle.

00:57:24.388 --> 00:57:26.323
Some of you don't live in this country,
00:57:26.323 --> 00:57:27.157
But you have.
00:57:27.157 --> 00:57:29.259
You have worked so hard in your life.
00:57:29.259 --> 00:57:31.762
Your back is like bowed over.

Let your shoulders drop and lift your hands
00:57:37.267 --> 00:57:39.403
And begin to worship and thank the lord.
00:57:39.403 --> 00:57:41.371
- someone else with pins and needles,
00:57:41.371 --> 00:57:43.373
Pain in your right hand and right arm.
00:57:43.373 --> 00:57:46.176

"faith shows the reality of what we hope for.
00:57:52.649 --> 00:57:55.652
It is the evidence of things we cannot see.
00:57:55.652 --> 00:57:58.689
God bless you."
