Yeah. so this is actually my 10th
00:34:38.128 --> 00:34:40.330
So this is actually my 10th year here at cbn and i came
00:34:40.464 --> 00:34:41.097
Year here at cbn and i came back basically from my third
00:34:41.231 --> 00:34:44.334
Back basically from my third baby and i felt like just a
00:34:44.468 --> 00:34:45.202
Baby and i felt like just a real stirring from the holy
00:34:45.335 --> 00:34:47.838
Real stirring from the holy spirit that it was time to step
00:34:47.971 --> 00:34:48.638
Spirit that it was time to step into something different and
00:34:48.772 --> 00:34:49.306
Into something different and this really came about, you
00:34:49.439 --> 00:34:51.908
This really came about, you know, lots of holy spirit
00:34:52.042 --> 00:34:52.609
Know, lots of holy spirit moments a of divine
00:34:52.742 --> 00:34:55.178
Moments a of divine connections.
00:34:55.312 --> 00:34:55.579
Connections. but essentially i was listening
00:34:55.712 --> 00:34:58.882
But essentially i was listening to my co-host ryan buffet.
00:34:59.015 --> 00:34:59.549
To my co-host ryan buffet. he created the exorcist and i
00:34:59.683 --> 00:35:02.686
He created the exorcist and i was listening to him do an
00:35:02.819 --> 00:35:03.386
Was listening to him do an interview a little over a year
00:35:03.520 --> 00:35:04.187
Interview a little over a year ago talking about how he got
00:35:04.321 --> 00:35:06.456
Ago talking about how he got started doing the exorcist
00:35:06.590 --> 00:35:07.123
Started doing the exorcist files and how originally his
00:35:07.257 --> 00:35:10.093
Files and how originally his intent was to do a podcast on
00:35:10.227 --> 00:35:10.994
Intent was to do a podcast on miracle and how god ended up
00:35:11.127 --> 00:35:14.698
Miracle and how god ended up leading him down a very
00:35:14.831 --> 00:35:15.332
Leading him down a very different path and you know,
00:35:15.465 --> 00:35:17.801
Different path and you know, kind of did the opposite of
00:35:17.934 --> 00:35:18.502
Kind of did the opposite of miracles.
00:35:18.635 --> 00:35:18.869
Miracles. but his podcast is still
00:35:19.002 --> 00:35:21.805
But his podcast is still leading people to the lord and
00:35:21.938 --> 00:35:22.572
Leading people to the lord and just wild the enough i heard
00:35:22.706 --> 00:35:25.442
Just wild the enough i heard that and i was thinking wow, a
00:35:25.575 --> 00:35:26.176
That and i was thinking wow, a podcast on miracles would be
00:35:26.309 --> 00:35:28.445
Podcast on miracles would be amazing.
00:35:28.578 --> 00:35:28.778
Amazing. 2 to 3 weeks later my husband
00:35:28.912 --> 00:35:29.646
2 to 3 weeks later my husband and i find ourselves at a
00:35:29.779 --> 00:35:32.883
And i find ourselves at a retreat which ryan was at as
00:35:33.016 --> 00:35:33.617
Retreat which ryan was at as well i didn't know him and we
00:35:33.750 --> 00:35:37.320
Well i didn't know him and we end up talking and i told him i
00:35:37.454 --> 00:35:38.188
End up talking and i told him i was like stephen's been in the
00:35:38.321 --> 00:35:40.657
Was like stephen's been in the business of sharing miracle
00:35:40.790 --> 00:35:41.324
Business of sharing miracle stories for more than 60 years.
00:35:41.458 --> 00:35:44.160
Stories for more than 60 years. this is a great idea and if
00:35:44.294 --> 00:35:45.028
This is a great idea and if you'd want to with us to put
00:35:45.161 --> 00:35:47.564
You'd want to with us to put this together let's do it and
00:35:47.697 --> 00:35:48.431
This together let's do it and sure, a week later we were on
00:35:48.565 --> 00:35:51.735
Sure, a week later we were on the phone and we just started
00:35:51.868 --> 00:35:52.469
The phone and we just started praying over this.
00:35:52.602 --> 00:35:55.005
Praying over this. when i went to pitch it
00:35:55.138 --> 00:35:55.772
When i went to pitch it everyone thought it was a great
00:35:55.906 --> 00:35:56.540
Everyone thought it was a great idea except one problem was i
00:35:56.673 --> 00:35:58.909
Idea except one problem was i was the white house
00:35:59.042 --> 00:35:59.442
Was the white house correspondent and that not
00:35:59.576 --> 00:36:01.978
Correspondent and that not really in my my purview so that
00:36:02.112 --> 00:36:06.049
Really in my my purview so that really i just started praying
00:36:06.182 --> 00:36:06.750
Really i just started praying because i feel like the holy
00:36:06.883 --> 00:36:07.484
Because i feel like the holy spirit is moving in ways i have
00:36:07.617 --> 00:36:10.020
Spirit is moving in ways i have not seen in my lifetime and
00:36:10.153 --> 00:36:13.390
Not seen in my lifetime and just felt a stir that maybe it
00:36:13.523 --> 00:36:14.357
Just felt a stir that maybe it was time to step away from
00:36:14.491 --> 00:36:15.191
Was time to step away from news and to really instead be
00:36:15.325 --> 00:36:17.861
News and to really instead be on the forefront of sharing the
00:36:17.994 --> 00:36:18.595
On the forefront of sharing the miraculous ways god is moving
00:36:18.728 --> 00:36:21.364
Miraculous ways god is moving today in our world which is not
00:36:21.498 --> 00:36:22.299
Today in our world which is not anything to you now because
00:36:22.432 --> 00:36:25.502

Goodness and the majesty and the greatness of god.
00:36:33.109 --> 00:36:33.577
The greatness of god. there are so many stories to be
00:36:33.710 --> 00:36:37.314
There are so many stories to be told and you have had some
00:36:37.447 --> 00:36:38.148
Told and you have had some really different but each
00:36:38.281 --> 00:36:41.418
Really different but each one significant guests on the
00:36:41.551 --> 00:36:45.255
One significant guests on the podcast so far how do you
00:36:45.388 --> 00:36:45.922
Podcast so far how do you decide who's going to be on how
00:36:46.056 --> 00:36:48.592
Decide who's going to be on how do you determine that really
00:36:48.725 --> 00:36:49.292
Do you determine that really through a lot of prayer and we
00:36:49.426 --> 00:36:51.895
Through a lot of prayer and we made sure for this first season
00:36:52.028 --> 00:36:52.696
Made sure for this first season to pick people we knew know
00:36:52.829 --> 00:36:56.132
To pick people we knew know their stories are true and we
00:36:56.266 --> 00:36:56.866
Their stories are true and we know that people will be
00:36:57.000 --> 00:36:57.534
Know that people will be touched hearing them stories
00:36:57.667 --> 00:37:00.503
Touched hearing them stories that have personally blown us
00:37:00.637 --> 00:37:01.237
That have personally blown us away when we've heard them and
00:37:01.371 --> 00:37:04.074
Away when we've heard them and that is what we want our
00:37:04.207 --> 00:37:04.741
That is what we want our audience to really take away
00:37:04.874 --> 00:37:07.377

That these people in very different industries i mean we

Different industries i mean we have a law enforcement officer
00:37:16.252 --> 00:37:18.355
Have a law enforcement officer that decided to partner with
00:37:18.488 --> 00:37:19.055

Just insane. only god could orchestrate the

God would meet people right where they're at and that's
00:38:05.969 --> 00:38:06.536
Where they're at and that's what i hear you saying is that
00:38:06.670 --> 00:38:09.739
What i hear you saying is that people being so different in

People being so different in their backgrounds and their

Their backgrounds and their stories where they've come from
00:38:11.241 --> 00:38:13.476
Stories where they've come from for all of us to see that god
00:38:13.610 --> 00:38:16.780
For all of us to see that god does meet us right where we're
00:38:16.913 --> 00:38:17.514
Does meet us right where we're at that he's that special
00:38:17.647 --> 00:38:18.181
At that he's that special purpose and the place that he

Four king and country singers luke smallbone and we brought
00:38:34.931 --> 00:38:36.900
Luke smallbone and we brought on because the 700 club has
00:38:37.033 --> 00:38:37.634
On because the 700 club has shared her testimony of being
00:38:37.767 --> 00:38:38.368
Shared her testimony of being radically freed from addiction
00:38:38.501 --> 00:38:41.304
Radically freed from addiction and from anxiety so that was
00:38:41.438 --> 00:38:45.108
And from anxiety so that was one of the reasons we wanted to
00:38:45.241 --> 00:38:45.875
One of the reasons we wanted to talk to her about that radical
00:38:46.009 --> 00:38:46.609
Talk to her about that radical transformation and in the
00:38:46.743 --> 00:38:48.878
Transformation and in the process we find out she has an
00:38:49.012 --> 00:38:49.713
Process we find out she has an insane story of when the holy
00:38:49.846 --> 00:38:52.982
Insane story of when the holy spirit spoke to her and told
00:38:53.116 --> 00:38:55.251
Spirit spoke to her and told her about her eight week old
00:38:55.385 --> 00:38:55.952
Her about her eight week old son who was sleeping in his
00:38:56.086 --> 00:38:56.653
Son who was sleeping in his crib do not believe what you
00:38:56.786 --> 00:38:59.255
Crib do not believe what you see when you go in there.
00:38:59.389 --> 00:38:59.956
See when you go in there. she finds her son lifeless, not
00:39:00.090 --> 00:39:00.724
She finds her son lifeless, not breathing and she cries out to
00:39:00.857 --> 00:39:04.194
Breathing and she cries out to the lord and prays that god
00:39:04.327 --> 00:39:05.061
The lord and prays that god will her son and it is
00:39:05.195 --> 00:39:08.531
Will her son and it is miraculous what happened what
00:39:08.665 --> 00:39:09.265
Miraculous what happened what in she the way she this i don't
00:39:09.399 --> 00:39:11.434
In she the way she this i don't want to give everything away
00:39:11.568 --> 00:39:12.168
Want to give everything away but it wasn't some crazy prayer
00:39:12.302 --> 00:39:15.238
But it wasn't some crazy prayer .
00:39:15.371 --> 00:39:15.472
. it was just she said it was a
00:39:15.605 --> 00:39:16.306
It was just she said it was a simple prayer of a mother
00:39:16.439 --> 00:39:16.973
Simple prayer of a mother crying out to lord and she had
00:39:17.107 --> 00:39:19.609
Crying out to lord and she had that warning from the holy
00:39:19.743 --> 00:39:20.276
That warning from the holy spirit before and we want to
00:39:20.410 --> 00:39:22.912
Spirit before and we want to really demystify what it means
00:39:23.046 --> 00:39:23.646
Really demystify what it means to hear god.
00:39:23.780 --> 00:39:26.216
To hear god. you know, i obviously grew up
00:39:26.349 --> 00:39:26.983
You know, i obviously grew up in a very christian family when
00:39:27.117 --> 00:39:30.120
In a very christian family when i would hear my grandfather
00:39:30.253 --> 00:39:30.820
I would hear my grandfather talk about hearing from god, i
00:39:30.954 --> 00:39:33.656
Talk about hearing from god, i literally believed that he was
00:39:33.790 --> 00:39:34.424
Literally believed that he was hearing the audible voice of
00:39:34.557 --> 00:39:37.460
Hearing the audible voice of lord because to me he was such
00:39:37.594 --> 00:39:38.328
Lord because to me he was such an honorable, righteous holy
00:39:38.461 --> 00:39:39.028
An honorable, righteous holy man it would make sense to me
00:39:39.162 --> 00:39:41.831
Man it would make sense to me that god would audibly speak to
00:39:41.965 --> 00:39:42.665
That god would audibly speak to me as and but then as i grew
00:39:42.799 --> 00:39:45.769
Me as and but then as i grew older and kind of you know,
00:39:45.902 --> 00:39:48.838
Older and kind of you know, gained spiritual maturity and
00:39:48.972 --> 00:39:49.539
Gained spiritual maturity and started to recognize the ways
00:39:49.672 --> 00:39:50.273
Started to recognize the ways the holy was speaking to me,
00:39:50.406 --> 00:39:52.475
The holy was speaking to me, i've never heard the audible
00:39:52.609 --> 00:39:53.143
I've never heard the audible voice of god but if talk to me
00:39:53.276 --> 00:39:55.879
Voice of god but if talk to me i talk about hearing from got
00:39:56.012 --> 00:39:56.613
I talk about hearing from got all the time and the holy
00:39:56.746 --> 00:39:57.380
All the time and the holy spirit know told me to do this
00:39:57.514 --> 00:40:00.383
Spirit know told me to do this that and what we want people to
00:40:00.517 --> 00:40:01.317
That and what we want people to tell glean from this is to hear
00:40:01.451 --> 00:40:04.120
Tell glean from this is to hear these stories and say hey,
00:40:04.254 --> 00:40:07.791
These stories and say hey, something like that happened to
00:40:07.924 --> 00:40:08.591
Something like that happened to me.
00:40:08.725 --> 00:40:08.858
Me. maybe that was the way there's
00:40:08.992 --> 00:40:09.592
Maybe that was the way there's still a small voice that the
00:40:09.726 --> 00:40:11.861
Still a small voice that the holy spirit was trying to get
00:40:11.995 --> 00:40:12.595
Holy spirit was trying to get my attention was trying to
00:40:12.729 --> 00:40:13.263
My attention was trying to speak to me and you will hear
00:40:13.396 --> 00:40:15.865
Speak to me and you will hear from christians who are very
00:40:15.999 --> 00:40:16.566
From christians who are very mature in their spiritual locks
00:40:16.699 --> 00:40:19.169
Mature in their spiritual locks have learned to hear and
00:40:19.302 --> 00:40:19.803
Have learned to hear and discern the voice of god
00:40:19.936 --> 00:40:20.470
Discern the voice of god without a shadow of a doubt and
00:40:20.603 --> 00:40:23.540
Without a shadow of a doubt and what happens when they have
00:40:23.673 --> 00:40:24.240
What happens when they have that radical even when it
00:40:24.374 --> 00:40:26.843
That radical even when it doesn't make sense.
00:40:26.976 --> 00:40:27.410
Doesn't make sense. you'll hear these stories are
00:40:27.544 --> 00:40:30.613
You'll hear these stories are so encouraging and that's what
00:40:30.747 --> 00:40:31.347
So encouraging and that's what we want.
00:40:31.481 --> 00:40:31.681
We want. we want you to take hear them
00:40:31.815 --> 00:40:34.284
We want you to take hear them and say okay, maybe the lord's
00:40:34.417 --> 00:40:35.018
And say okay, maybe the lord's trying to speak to me too
00:40:35.151 --> 00:40:37.887
Trying to speak to me too because it's not a question of
00:40:38.021 --> 00:40:38.655
Because it's not a question of whether or not god if if god to
00:40:38.788 --> 00:40:41.524
Whether or not god if if god to you he is speaking he is
00:40:41.658 --> 00:40:42.258
You he is speaking he is pouring out his spirit on all
00:40:42.392 --> 00:40:43.026
Pouring out his spirit on all of us it's a question of are we
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:45.795
Of us it's a question of are we listening and do we know how to
00:40:45.929 --> 00:40:49.098
Listening and do we know how to and hear his voice.
00:40:49.232 --> 00:40:49.666
And hear his voice. >> i just want to say also
