And things that i thought that i knew, even about herod,
00:02:04.581 --> 00:02:05.648
That i knew, even about herod, i just didn't know.

For you to write this book about herod and mary? kathie: it is a series

About herod and mary? kathie: it is a series of new books
00:02:13.990 --> 00:02:15.158
Kathie: it is a series of new books and we're hoping that
00:02:15.225 --> 00:02:16.326
Of new books and we're hoping that it will do well enough
00:02:16.392 --> 00:02:17.460
And we're hoping that it will do well enough we can do maybe ten of them.
00:02:17.527 --> 00:02:18.695
It will do well enough we can do maybe ten of them. everybody is talking so much
00:02:18.761 --> 00:02:20.063
We can do maybe ten of them. everybody is talking so much about the evil in the world;
00:02:20.129 --> 00:02:21.331
Everybody is talking so much about the evil in the world; there is so much more evil
00:02:21.397 --> 00:02:22.532
About the evil in the world; there is so much more evil in the world.
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:23.967
There is so much more evil in the world. actually, evil has been
00:02:24.033 --> 00:02:25.335
In the world. actually, evil has been in the world since
00:02:25.401 --> 00:02:26.569
Actually, evil has been in the world since the garden of eden.
00:02:26.636 --> 00:02:27.770
In the world since the garden of eden. it just has been.
00:02:27.837 --> 00:02:29.372
The garden of eden. it just has been. there was no cable news
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:30.773
It just has been. there was no cable news network then.
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.308
There was no cable news network then. but what's also been
00:02:32.375 --> 00:02:33.810
Network then. but what's also been ancient evil,
00:02:33.876 --> 00:02:36.045
But what's also been ancient evil, what's always been true
00:02:36.112 --> 00:02:37.480
Ancient evil, what's always been true as well is there's been
00:02:37.547 --> 00:02:38.781
What's always been true as well is there's been living hope right next to it
00:02:38.848 --> 00:02:40.717
As well is there's been living hope right next to it -- living hope.
00:02:40.783 --> 00:02:42.018
Living hope right next to it -- living hope. so that's the series name,
00:02:42.085 --> 00:02:44.087
-- living hope. so that's the series name, "ancient evil, living hope."
00:02:44.153 --> 00:02:45.588
So that's the series name, "ancient evil, living hope." the first one is about herod,
00:02:45.655 --> 00:02:47.490
"ancient evil, living hope." the first one is about herod, who called himself
00:02:47.557 --> 00:02:48.658
The first one is about herod, who called himself "the king of the jews."
00:02:48.725 --> 00:02:49.792
Who called himself "the king of the jews." he wasn't even a jew.
00:02:49.859 --> 00:02:51.628
"the king of the jews." he wasn't even a jew. the jews hated him.
00:02:51.694 --> 00:02:53.329
He wasn't even a jew. the jews hated him. and then "living hope"
00:02:53.396 --> 00:02:55.331
The jews hated him. and then "living hope" is mary because just at
00:02:55.398 --> 00:02:57.400
And then "living hope" is mary because just at the time, as you know because
00:02:57.467 --> 00:02:59.102
Is mary because just at the time, as you know because you've read the book,
00:02:59.168 --> 00:03:00.336
The time, as you know because you've read the book, just as herod's
00:03:00.403 --> 00:03:02.205
You've read the book, just as herod's unbelievable evil life
00:03:02.272 --> 00:03:04.173
Just as herod's unbelievable evil life was coming to an end,
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:05.441
Unbelievable evil life was coming to an end, he was just --
00:03:05.508 --> 00:03:06.776
Was coming to an end, he was just -- he was going around his palace
00:03:06.843 --> 00:03:08.578
He was just -- he was going around his palace in jericho going,
00:03:08.645 --> 00:03:10.613
He was going around his palace in jericho going, mariamne! mariamne!"
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:13.283
In jericho going, mariamne! mariamne!" the only woman he had
00:03:13.349 --> 00:03:14.450
Mariamne! mariamne!" the only woman he had ever truly loved
00:03:14.517 --> 00:03:15.785
The only woman he had ever truly loved in his whole life
00:03:15.852 --> 00:03:16.953
Ever truly loved in his whole life and he had murdered her.
00:03:17.020 --> 00:03:18.321
In his whole life and he had murdered her. he murdered almost everybody
00:03:18.388 --> 00:03:19.522
And he had murdered her. he murdered almost everybody in his family,
00:03:19.589 --> 00:03:21.024
He murdered almost everybody in his family, and anybody that was
00:03:21.090 --> 00:03:22.959
In his family, and anybody that was his enemy, politically.
00:03:23.026 --> 00:03:25.495
And anybody that was his enemy, politically. i didn't know that about him.
00:03:25.561 --> 00:03:27.964
His enemy, politically. i didn't know that about him. and then juxtapose that
00:03:28.031 --> 00:03:29.932
I didn't know that about him. and then juxtapose that with the birth of mary,
00:03:29.999 --> 00:03:32.669
And then juxtapose that with the birth of mary, this beautiful, beautiful,
00:03:32.735 --> 00:03:34.937
With the birth of mary, this beautiful, beautiful, elegant, godly, pure woman
00:03:35.004 --> 00:03:39.409
This beautiful, beautiful, elegant, godly, pure woman going down to give birth
00:03:39.475 --> 00:03:42.712
Elegant, godly, pure woman going down to give birth to the messiah.
00:03:42.779 --> 00:03:44.847
Going down to give birth to the messiah. there is no greater honor
00:03:44.914 --> 00:03:46.749
To the messiah. there is no greater honor anybody has ever been given
00:03:46.816 --> 00:03:48.418
There is no greater honor anybody has ever been given in all of history
00:03:48.484 --> 00:03:50.153
Anybody has ever been given in all of history than was given to mary,
00:03:50.219 --> 00:03:51.788
In all of history than was given to mary, to bring the messiah
00:03:51.854 --> 00:03:52.922
Than was given to mary, to bring the messiah into the world.
00:03:52.989 --> 00:03:55.458
To bring the messiah into the world. and what did she say?
00:03:55.525 --> 00:03:57.193
Into the world. and what did she say? "let it be unto me
00:03:57.260 --> 00:03:58.594
And what did she say? "let it be unto me as you have said."
00:03:58.661 --> 00:03:59.896
"let it be unto me as you have said." that's such a message
00:03:59.962 --> 00:04:02.065
As you have said." that's such a message for all of us today in life.
00:04:02.131 --> 00:04:04.701
That's such a message for all of us today in life. because the lord is asking
00:04:04.767 --> 00:04:06.035
For all of us today in life. because the lord is asking something of us right now,
00:04:06.102 --> 00:04:07.270
Because the lord is asking something of us right now, too, every one of us who
00:04:07.337 --> 00:04:09.238
Something of us right now, too, every one of us who calls ourselves believers.
00:04:09.305 --> 00:04:13.276
Too, every one of us who calls ourselves believers. i want to be able to say
00:04:13.343 --> 00:04:14.410
Calls ourselves believers. i want to be able to say every single day
00:04:14.477 --> 00:04:15.611
I want to be able to say every single day what mary said,
00:04:15.678 --> 00:04:16.746
Every single day what mary said, "let it be unto me,
00:04:16.813 --> 00:04:17.947
What mary said, "let it be unto me, lord as you say."
00:04:18.014 --> 00:04:19.816
"let it be unto me, lord as you say." so anyway, i love the idea
00:04:19.882 --> 00:04:23.019
Lord as you say." so anyway, i love the idea and it truly was my son's idea
00:04:23.086 --> 00:04:25.388
So anyway, i love the idea and it truly was my son's idea of mom living --
00:04:25.455 --> 00:04:27.290
And it truly was my son's idea of mom living -- when i went to israel
00:04:27.357 --> 00:04:28.658
Of mom living -- when i went to israel and learned about herod,
00:04:28.725 --> 00:04:30.593
When i went to israel and learned about herod, i'd only known a few
00:04:30.660 --> 00:04:31.861
And learned about herod, i'd only known a few little things about him
00:04:31.928 --> 00:04:33.029
I'd only known a few little things about him from the scriptures.
00:04:33.096 --> 00:04:34.163
Little things about him from the scriptures. there is very little.
00:04:34.230 --> 00:04:35.631
From the scriptures. there is very little. but when i got there
00:04:35.698 --> 00:04:36.833
There is very little. but when i got there and i started studying,
00:04:36.899 --> 00:04:37.867
But when i got there and i started studying, i said, oh my gosh.
00:04:37.934 --> 00:04:39.102
And i started studying, i said, oh my gosh. if jesus is the greatest story
00:04:39.168 --> 00:04:40.370
I said, oh my gosh. if jesus is the greatest story ever told, which we all know
00:04:40.436 --> 00:04:42.238
If jesus is the greatest story ever told, which we all know he is, then herod is
00:04:42.305 --> 00:04:44.841
Randy: kathie lee, it is easy
00:04:49.312 --> 00:04:50.713
Randy: kathie lee, it is easy for us to just curse
00:04:50.780 --> 00:04:52.181
For us to just curse the darkness but jesus
00:04:52.248 --> 00:04:54.350
The darkness but jesus called himself the light
00:04:54.417 --> 00:04:55.818
Called himself the light of the world.
00:04:55.885 --> 00:04:57.153
This evil we have to hold up
00:04:59.021 --> 00:05:01.224
This evil we have to hold up the light as you know.
00:05:01.290 --> 00:05:03.092
This evil we have to hold up the light as you know. what is it about mary
00:05:03.159 --> 00:05:05.128
The light as you know. what is it about mary that you connect with
00:05:05.194 --> 00:05:06.329
What is it about mary that you connect with that touches you so deeply?
00:05:06.396 --> 00:05:07.864
That you connect with that touches you so deeply? because obviously,
00:05:07.930 --> 00:05:09.165
That touches you so deeply? because obviously, you feel some sort of
00:05:09.232 --> 00:05:10.833
Because obviously, you feel some sort of connection there.
00:05:10.900 --> 00:05:13.569
You feel some sort of connection there. kathie: well, i think
00:05:13.636 --> 00:05:15.271
Connection there. kathie: well, i think everybody feels
00:05:15.338 --> 00:05:16.506
She was probably about 13
00:05:18.074 --> 00:05:20.343
She was probably about 13 or 14 years old when
00:05:20.410 --> 00:05:22.345
Or 14 years old when the holy spirit came upon her.
00:05:22.412 --> 00:05:24.113
Jesus into my heart
00:05:27.850 --> 00:05:29.519
Jesus into my heart in a movie theater
00:05:29.585 --> 00:05:31.154
Jesus into my heart in a movie theater in annapolis, maryland,
00:05:31.220 --> 00:05:32.889
In a movie theater in annapolis, maryland, watching a movie that
00:05:32.955 --> 00:05:34.090
In annapolis, maryland, watching a movie that billy graham's organization
00:05:34.157 --> 00:05:35.158
Watching a movie that billy graham's organization had put out called
00:05:35.224 --> 00:05:36.392
Billy graham's organization had put out called "the restless ones."
00:05:36.459 --> 00:05:37.660
Had put out called "the restless ones." and i knew that jesus
00:05:37.727 --> 00:05:38.995
"the restless ones." and i knew that jesus spoke so clearly to me.
00:05:39.061 --> 00:05:40.263
And i knew that jesus spoke so clearly to me. said, "kathie, i love you.
00:05:40.329 --> 00:05:41.864
Spoke so clearly to me. said, "kathie, i love you. i love you.
00:05:41.931 --> 00:05:42.932
Said, "kathie, i love you. i love you. and if you will trust me,
00:05:42.999 --> 00:05:44.534
I love you. and if you will trust me, i will make something
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:45.735
And if you will trust me, i will make something beautiful out of your life."
00:05:45.802 --> 00:05:47.303
I will make something beautiful out of your life." so it is the same thing.
00:05:47.370 --> 00:05:50.606
Beautiful out of your life." so it is the same thing. the angel came to mary
00:05:50.673 --> 00:05:52.975
So it is the same thing. the angel came to mary and said if you will
00:05:53.042 --> 00:05:54.177
The angel came to mary and said if you will trust jesus,
00:05:54.243 --> 00:05:55.278
And said if you will trust jesus, if you will trust god
00:05:55.344 --> 00:05:56.813
Trust jesus, if you will trust god he will make something
00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:58.014
If you will trust god he will make something beautiful and magnificent --
00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:01.717
He will make something beautiful and magnificent -- the magnificat,
00:06:01.784 --> 00:06:02.852
Beautiful and magnificent -- the magnificat, that's what she wrote,
00:06:02.919 --> 00:06:04.220
The magnificat, that's what she wrote, out of your life.
00:06:04.287 --> 00:06:06.022
That's what she wrote, out of your life. i think as a young woman,
00:06:06.088 --> 00:06:09.091
Out of your life. i think as a young woman, i just always related
00:06:09.158 --> 00:06:10.426
I think as a young woman, i just always related to the fact that --
00:06:10.493 --> 00:06:11.894
I just always related to the fact that -- what would i have said
00:06:11.961 --> 00:06:13.229
To the fact that -- what would i have said to the angel?
00:06:13.296 --> 00:06:14.997
What would i have said to the angel? what would my response
00:06:15.064 --> 00:06:16.299
To the angel? what would my response have been?
00:06:16.365 --> 00:06:17.500
What would my response have been? i'd like to think i would
00:06:17.567 --> 00:06:18.568
Have been? i'd like to think i would say what mary said,
00:06:18.634 --> 00:06:20.603
I'd like to think i would say what mary said, "how could this be?"
00:06:20.670 --> 00:06:21.804
Say what mary said, "how could this be?" how could it be?
00:06:21.871 --> 00:06:23.339
"how could this be?" how could it be? she was a virgin;
00:06:23.406 --> 00:06:24.974
How could it be? she was a virgin; she had never ever
00:06:25.041 --> 00:06:26.142
I was too when
00:06:28.177 --> 00:06:29.212
I was too when i was that age.
00:06:29.278 --> 00:06:30.546
I was that age. there is an innocence
00:06:30.613 --> 00:06:31.814
There is an innocence about you.
00:06:31.881 --> 00:06:33.049
About you. you don't know
00:06:33.115 --> 00:06:34.183
You don't know what that's all about.
00:06:34.250 --> 00:06:35.318
What that's all about. you just know that god
00:06:35.384 --> 00:06:36.652
A woman who trusts him.
00:06:38.521 --> 00:06:42.191
A woman who trusts him. look at women who later
00:06:42.258 --> 00:06:44.026
A woman who trusts him. look at women who later in life after living
00:06:44.093 --> 00:06:45.528
Look at women who later in life after living very, very hard lives,
00:06:45.595 --> 00:06:48.164
In life after living very, very hard lives, mary magdalene, seven demons,
00:06:48.231 --> 00:06:50.600
Very, very hard lives, mary magdalene, seven demons, all the prostitutes,
00:06:50.666 --> 00:06:52.535
Mary magdalene, seven demons, all the prostitutes, all these women certainly
00:06:52.602 --> 00:06:54.737
All the prostitutes, all these women certainly were not virgins but
00:06:54.804 --> 00:06:56.806
All these women certainly were not virgins but the beauty of their story
00:06:56.873 --> 00:07:01.277
Were not virgins but the beauty of their story is that they met jesus,
00:07:01.344 --> 00:07:03.513
The beauty of their story is that they met jesus, and jesus saw them as pure.
00:07:03.579 --> 00:07:06.015
Is that they met jesus, and jesus saw them as pure. jesus saw them
00:07:06.082 --> 00:07:07.250
And jesus saw them as pure. jesus saw them as wrapped in a robe
00:07:07.316 --> 00:07:08.518
Jesus saw them as wrapped in a robe of righteousness.
00:07:08.584 --> 00:07:10.786
As wrapped in a robe of righteousness. he saw them as beautiful,
00:07:10.853 --> 00:07:14.090
Of righteousness. he saw them as beautiful, beautiful creations
00:07:14.156 --> 00:07:15.358
He saw them as beautiful, beautiful creations of father god.
00:07:15.424 --> 00:07:17.460
Beautiful creations of father god. and that's why women respond
00:07:17.527 --> 00:07:20.196
Of father god. and that's why women respond to jesus like they did.
00:07:20.263 --> 00:07:22.999
And that's why women respond to jesus like they did. women had never been
00:07:23.065 --> 00:07:24.367
To jesus like they did. women had never been treated equally in the culture
00:07:24.433 --> 00:07:26.936
Women had never been treated equally in the culture and they still aren't
00:07:27.003 --> 00:07:28.104
Treated equally in the culture and they still aren't all around the world.
00:07:28.170 --> 00:07:29.238
And they still aren't all around the world. but back then,
00:07:29.305 --> 00:07:31.007
All around the world. but back then, they were just considered
00:07:31.073 --> 00:07:32.241
But back then, they were just considered like maybe a third,
00:07:32.308 --> 00:07:33.876
They were just considered like maybe a third, maybe two-thirds of a man,
00:07:33.943 --> 00:07:35.111
Like maybe a third, maybe two-thirds of a man, dependent on where
00:07:35.177 --> 00:07:36.445
Maybe two-thirds of a man, dependent on where they live.
00:07:36.512 --> 00:07:37.947
Dependent on where they live. they were never considered
00:07:38.014 --> 00:07:39.649
They live. they were never considered full and valuable creatures
00:07:39.715 --> 00:07:43.052
They were never considered full and valuable creatures made in the image of god
00:07:43.119 --> 00:07:44.720
Full and valuable creatures made in the image of god at all.
00:07:44.787 --> 00:07:46.222
Made in the image of god at all. and here comes jesus,
00:07:46.289 --> 00:07:49.458
At all. and here comes jesus, here comes jesus
00:07:49.525 --> 00:07:51.394
And here comes jesus, here comes jesus and he knows their names.
00:07:51.460 --> 00:07:53.396
Here comes jesus and he knows their names. don't you love that
00:07:53.462 --> 00:07:54.764
And he knows their names. don't you love that the first person he saw
00:07:54.830 --> 00:07:56.966
Don't you love that the first person he saw when he came from the tomb,
00:07:57.033 --> 00:07:59.669
The first person he saw when he came from the tomb, and mary magdalene didn't
00:07:59.735 --> 00:08:01.637
When he came from the tomb, and mary magdalene didn't recognize him at the tomb
00:08:01.704 --> 00:08:04.040
And mary magdalene didn't recognize him at the tomb because it was early?
00:08:04.106 --> 00:08:05.541
Recognize him at the tomb because it was early? she said, "where have you
00:08:05.608 --> 00:08:06.676
Because it was early? she said, "where have you taken my lord?
00:08:06.742 --> 00:08:07.944
She said, "where have you taken my lord? tell me where
00:08:08.010 --> 00:08:09.111
Taken my lord? tell me where you've taken him.
00:08:09.178 --> 00:08:10.146
Tell me where you've taken him. i will come and get him."
00:08:10.212 --> 00:08:11.347
You've taken him. i will come and get him." and all he had to do,
00:08:11.414 --> 00:08:12.882
I will come and get him." and all he had to do, you guys, i think this is
00:08:12.949 --> 00:08:14.116
And all he had to do, you guys, i think this is my favorite scripture
00:08:14.183 --> 00:08:16.485
You guys, i think this is my favorite scripture in the whole bible.
00:08:16.552 --> 00:08:19.188
My favorite scripture in the whole bible. she said, "tell me
00:08:19.255 --> 00:08:20.856
In the whole bible. she said, "tell me where my lord is and i will
00:08:20.923 --> 00:08:21.958
And he said, "mary!"
00:08:24.327 --> 00:08:29.031
And he said, "mary!" he said her name.
00:08:29.098 --> 00:08:32.635
He said her name. instantly, she knew
00:08:32.702 --> 00:08:34.103
Instantly, she knew it was jesus
00:08:34.170 --> 00:08:36.339
It was jesus because she had heard him
00:08:36.405 --> 00:08:38.341
In such love.
00:08:41.143 --> 00:08:43.312
In such love. this woman probably had
00:08:43.379 --> 00:08:44.847
In such love. this woman probably had been seduced by 100 men,
00:08:44.914 --> 00:08:46.282
This woman probably had been seduced by 100 men, a thousand men, who knows?
00:08:46.349 --> 00:08:48.551
Been seduced by 100 men, a thousand men, who knows? all her life.
00:08:48.618 --> 00:08:50.086
A thousand men, who knows? all her life. demons tormenting her.
00:08:50.152 --> 00:08:53.422
All her life. demons tormenting her. and jesus just says,
00:08:53.489 --> 00:08:55.491
Demons tormenting her. and jesus just says, "mary."
00:08:55.558 --> 00:08:58.427
And jesus just says, "mary." it is the most beautiful
00:08:58.494 --> 00:09:00.129
"mary." it is the most beautiful scripture in the whole bible
00:09:00.196 --> 00:09:02.198
It is the most beautiful scripture in the whole bible to me because
00:09:02.264 --> 00:09:04.300
Scripture in the whole bible to me because that's what he says to me
00:09:04.367 --> 00:09:05.968
To me because that's what he says to me when i'm hurting.
00:09:06.035 --> 00:09:07.737
That's what he says to me when i'm hurting. that's what he says to you,
00:09:07.803 --> 00:09:09.338
When i'm hurting. that's what he says to you, randy and tammy.

That's what he says to you, randy and tammy. that's what he says
00:09:10.773 --> 00:09:11.907
Randy and tammy. that's what he says to all of us.

He knows us by name. tammy: yes! i think that's

Kathie lee, to me too.
00:09:18.948 --> 00:09:19.949
Kathie lee, to me too. when you talk i can feel
00:09:20.016 --> 00:09:21.450
When you talk i can feel the same emotion because
00:09:21.517 --> 00:09:22.818
The same emotion because i think no matter what
00:09:22.885 --> 00:09:24.186
I think no matter what i've gone through in life,
00:09:24.253 --> 00:09:25.988
That my life matters,
00:09:28.424 --> 00:09:29.825
That my life matters, what i've gone through,
00:09:29.892 --> 00:09:31.327
That my life matters, what i've gone through, the details of my life,
00:09:31.394 --> 00:09:32.728
What i've gone through, the details of my life, the good and the bad,
00:09:32.795 --> 00:09:33.863
The details of my life, the good and the bad, the ups and the down,
00:09:33.929 --> 00:09:34.930
The good and the bad, the ups and the down, i'm never abandoned,
00:09:34.997 --> 00:09:36.165
That god is walking
00:09:36.265 --> 00:09:37.433
That god is walking everything out with me,
00:09:37.500 --> 00:09:38.567
That god is walking everything out with me, i think is the greatest gift
00:09:38.634 --> 00:09:39.702
Everything out with me, i think is the greatest gift to think that you could
00:09:39.769 --> 00:09:40.836
I think is the greatest gift to think that you could hear the voice of god.
00:09:40.903 --> 00:09:42.104
To think that you could hear the voice of god. kathie: he is a personal god.

Tammy: yes, he is. kathie: people don't know that and it is just --
00:09:48.978 --> 00:09:50.446
Kathie: people don't know that and it is just -- it breaks my heart.
00:09:50.513 --> 00:09:54.216
I try to spend my whole life
00:09:54.316 --> 00:09:56.719
I try to spend my whole life in -- my ministry has been
00:09:56.786 --> 00:09:58.521
I try to spend my whole life in -- my ministry has been in the entertainment world
00:09:58.587 --> 00:09:59.722

In the entertainment world but it was always my mission field.
00:10:00.956 --> 00:10:02.591
But it was always my mission field. my mission was always
00:10:02.658 --> 00:10:04.560
My mission field. my mission was always to tell people
00:10:04.627 --> 00:10:06.062
My mission was always to tell people that god loves them.

That god loves them. entertain them, make them laugh, you can be bawdy,

Entertain them, make them laugh, you can be bawdy, you can be silly,

Laugh, you can be bawdy, you can be silly, you can be all these things
00:10:13.102 --> 00:10:14.503
You can be silly, you can be all these things but make sure people know

You can be all these things but make sure people know that i love them, kathie.

Randy: one of the questions
00:10:24.680 --> 00:10:25.748
Randy: one of the questions that people ask is
00:10:25.815 --> 00:10:27.149
That people ask is if god is a good god
00:10:27.216 --> 00:10:29.251
If god is a good god how could he allow such evil
00:10:29.318 --> 00:10:31.854
How could he allow such evil in our world?
00:10:31.921 --> 00:10:33.289
The evil with hope.
00:10:35.357 --> 00:10:38.294
The evil with hope. what do you see
00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:39.929
The evil with hope. what do you see and what do you say to those
00:10:39.995 --> 00:10:41.297
What do you see and what do you say to those who look around the world
00:10:41.363 --> 00:10:42.398
And what do you say to those who look around the world today and think,
00:10:42.465 --> 00:10:44.667
Who look around the world today and think, where is god?
00:10:44.734 --> 00:10:45.968
Today and think, where is god? if god is here
00:10:46.035 --> 00:10:47.303
Where is god? if god is here where is he?
00:10:47.369 --> 00:10:48.671
If god is here where is he? kathie: i understand

Kathie: i understand the question and i've asked it myself just recently.

The question and i've asked it myself just recently. believe me, it never gets old.
00:10:54.110 --> 00:10:55.544
Myself just recently. believe me, it never gets old. [laughing]
00:10:55.611 --> 00:10:57.780
Believe me, it never gets old. [laughing] here's the thing.
00:10:57.847 --> 00:10:59.815
[laughing] here's the thing. god never wanted us
00:10:59.882 --> 00:11:03.085
Here's the thing. god never wanted us to know evil in the world.
00:11:03.152 --> 00:11:04.920
He created perfection for us
00:11:08.057 --> 00:11:10.793
He created perfection for us and put us there to love
00:11:10.860 --> 00:11:12.461
And put us there to love each other and to have
00:11:12.528 --> 00:11:16.031
Each other and to have communication with him.
00:11:16.098 --> 00:11:18.601
Communication with him. he wanted to walk with us
00:11:18.667 --> 00:11:19.902
He wanted to walk with us in the garden.
00:11:19.969 --> 00:11:21.103
In the garden. he wanted to see what
00:11:21.170 --> 00:11:22.304
He wanted to see what we were going to build.
00:11:22.371 --> 00:11:23.439
We were going to build. he wanted to see what
00:11:23.506 --> 00:11:24.607
He wanted to see what we were going to name
00:11:24.673 --> 00:11:25.608
We were going to name the animals.
00:11:25.674 --> 00:11:26.709
The animals. he wanted community with us.
00:11:26.776 --> 00:11:28.377
He wanted community with us. we're the ones that created
00:11:28.444 --> 00:11:29.945
We're the ones that created the evil that's
00:11:30.012 --> 00:11:31.580
The evil that's in the world today.
00:11:31.647 --> 00:11:33.015
In the world today. don't blame it on god.
00:11:33.082 --> 00:11:34.850
Don't blame it on god. gave us perfection
00:11:34.917 --> 00:11:36.519
It is our fault.
00:11:39.522 --> 00:11:41.624
It is our fault. it is our fault individually
00:11:41.690 --> 00:11:43.659
It is our fault. it is our fault individually and it is our fault
00:11:43.726 --> 00:11:44.827
It is our fault individually and it is our fault collectively.
00:11:44.894 --> 00:11:46.028
And it is our fault collectively. and when people blame god
00:11:46.095 --> 00:11:47.530
Collectively. and when people blame god i just go, what did
00:11:47.596 --> 00:11:48.697
And when people blame god i just go, what did god ever do to you?
00:11:48.764 --> 00:11:50.599
I just go, what did god ever do to you? no! uh-uh.

No! uh-uh. i will not let anybody ever get away with that.

I will not let anybody ever get away with that. that's so easy so you can say
00:11:55.237 --> 00:11:57.940
Ever get away with that. that's so easy so you can say i don't believe in god
00:11:58.007 --> 00:11:59.175
That's so easy so you can say i don't believe in god because he would do that.
00:11:59.241 --> 00:12:00.509
I don't believe in god because he would do that. no, he didn't do that.
00:12:00.576 --> 00:12:01.977
Because he would do that. no, he didn't do that. we did.
00:12:02.044 --> 00:12:03.746
No, he didn't do that. we did. randy: and he went through
00:12:03.813 --> 00:12:04.947
We did. randy: and he went through extraordinary lengths
00:12:05.014 --> 00:12:06.315
Randy: and he went through extraordinary lengths to bring salvation to us.
00:12:06.382 --> 00:12:08.951
Extraordinary lengths to bring salvation to us. one thing i appreciate, and

The rabbinic learning, the context, the place, and the culture, it was
00:12:15.758 --> 00:12:17.493
The context, the place, and the culture, it was an amazing thing to see

And the culture, it was an amazing thing to see the setup for christ
00:12:19.929 --> 00:12:22.298
An amazing thing to see the setup for christ in the way that even rome,
00:12:22.364 --> 00:12:24.400
The setup for christ in the way that even rome, which was awful,
00:12:24.466 --> 00:12:26.235
In the way that even rome, which was awful, god was able to turn that
00:12:26.302 --> 00:12:27.603
Which was awful, god was able to turn that for good to use it to pave
00:12:27.670 --> 00:12:31.106
God was able to turn that for good to use it to pave the way for christ,
00:12:31.173 --> 00:12:32.808
For good to use it to pave the way for christ, and then for christianity
00:12:32.875 --> 00:12:34.143
The way for christ, and then for christianity to go forth.

Kathie: well, because rome was this center of the universe to humankind
00:12:45.654 --> 00:12:48.224
Rome was this center of the universe to humankind at the time, but it wasn't
00:12:48.290 --> 00:12:49.358
The universe to humankind at the time, but it wasn't the center of god's universe.
00:12:49.425 --> 00:12:51.594

God gave us great blessings and we chose to try to be like god.
00:13:22.191 --> 00:13:23.993
And we chose to try to be like god. and we ruined it;
00:13:24.059 --> 00:13:25.094
To be like god. and we ruined it; we've ruined it ever since,
00:13:25.160 --> 00:13:27.329
And we ruined it; we've ruined it ever since, and then we blame god for it.
00:13:27.396 --> 00:13:30.132
We've ruined it ever since, and then we blame god for it. we're doing it now.
00:13:30.199 --> 00:13:31.600
And then we blame god for it. we're doing it now. we're doing it now.
00:13:31.667 --> 00:13:33.202
We're doing it now. we're doing it now. so rome is no different
00:13:33.269 --> 00:13:34.570
We're doing it now. so rome is no different than america is today.

So rome is no different than america is today. we've got everybody
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:38.507
Than america is today. we've got everybody all over the world
00:13:38.574 --> 00:13:40.342
We've got everybody all over the world and none of them,
00:13:40.409 --> 00:13:41.644
All over the world and none of them, none of them know jesus,
00:13:41.710 --> 00:13:43.012
And none of them, none of them know jesus, none of them know god
00:13:43.078 --> 00:13:44.446
None of them know jesus, none of them know god and they're all trying
00:13:44.513 --> 00:13:45.581
None of them know god and they're all trying to be god.
00:13:45.648 --> 00:13:46.982
And they're all trying to be god. all of them.
00:13:47.049 --> 00:13:48.417
To be god. all of them. and they can't be
00:13:48.484 --> 00:13:49.752
All of them. and they can't be and they never will be.
00:13:49.818 --> 00:13:51.253
And they can't be and they never will be. the point of our book
00:13:51.320 --> 00:13:52.855
And they never will be. the point of our book is ancient evil is the same
00:13:52.922 --> 00:13:55.124
The point of our book is ancient evil is the same as present-day evil.
00:13:55.190 --> 00:13:56.792
Is ancient evil is the same as present-day evil. it's there.
00:13:56.859 --> 00:13:58.127
As present-day evil. it's there. but what's the most
00:13:58.193 --> 00:13:59.929
It's there. but what's the most exciting thing is that --
00:13:59.995 --> 00:14:02.031
But what's the most exciting thing is that -- but living hope --
00:14:02.097 --> 00:14:05.067
Exciting thing is that -- but living hope -- our living hope.
00:14:05.134 --> 00:14:06.235
But living hope -- our living hope. jesus said, "i am the way,
00:14:06.302 --> 00:14:07.503
Our living hope. jesus said, "i am the way, the truth, and the life.
00:14:07.569 --> 00:14:09.471
Jesus said, "i am the way, the truth, and the life. no one comes to the father
00:14:09.538 --> 00:14:10.873
The truth, and the life. no one comes to the father except through me."
00:14:10.940 --> 00:14:12.174
No one comes to the father except through me." i know a lot of my people,
00:14:12.241 --> 00:14:13.409
Except through me." i know a lot of my people, my friends who are not
00:14:13.475 --> 00:14:14.510
I know a lot of my people, my friends who are not believers will say,
00:14:14.576 --> 00:14:15.744
My friends who are not believers will say, "well, that's so intolerant!
00:14:15.811 --> 00:14:16.979
Believers will say, "well, that's so intolerant! what do you mean?"
00:14:17.046 --> 00:14:19.048
"well, that's so intolerant! what do you mean?" people don't understand
00:14:19.114 --> 00:14:20.649
What do you mean?" people don't understand that when jesus said that,
00:14:20.716 --> 00:14:21.917
People don't understand that when jesus said that, that's the best news
00:14:21.984 --> 00:14:23.085
That when jesus said that, that's the best news in the whole world.
00:14:23.152 --> 00:14:24.420
That's the best news in the whole world. if you're going to have
00:14:24.486 --> 00:14:25.621
In the whole world. if you're going to have the one person who is there
00:14:25.688 --> 00:14:27.523
If you're going to have the one person who is there to make sure you get
00:14:27.589 --> 00:14:28.524
The one person who is there to make sure you get into paradise, okay,
00:14:28.590 --> 00:14:31.260
If it is jesus,
00:14:33.062 --> 00:14:34.730
If it is jesus, he is the only one out of
00:14:34.797 --> 00:14:36.131
He is the only one out of all these so-called gods
00:14:36.198 --> 00:14:37.766
All these so-called gods and religions
00:14:37.833 --> 00:14:38.801
And religions and everything else,
00:14:38.867 --> 00:14:39.969
And everything else, he's the only one who gave
00:14:40.035 --> 00:14:41.570
Suffered the most
00:14:44.373 --> 00:14:45.607
Suffered the most agonizing death
00:14:45.674 --> 00:14:47.443
Suffered the most agonizing death you could have at that time,
00:14:47.509 --> 00:14:49.345
Agonizing death you could have at that time, was crucifixion.
00:14:49.411 --> 00:14:51.413
You could have at that time, was crucifixion. and people don't even know,
00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:52.681
Was crucifixion. and people don't even know, you learn from my book

And people don't even know, you learn from my book that crucifixion,
00:14:54.483 --> 00:14:56.518
You learn from my book that crucifixion, back in the times of jesus,
00:14:56.585 --> 00:14:57.786
That crucifixion, back in the times of jesus, was not done on a hill
00:14:57.853 --> 00:14:59.955
Back in the times of jesus, was not done on a hill where you saw some people
00:15:00.022 --> 00:15:01.156
Was not done on a hill where you saw some people hanging from crosses.
00:15:01.223 --> 00:15:02.458
Where you saw some people hanging from crosses. no, it was at eye level;
00:15:02.524 --> 00:15:04.493
Hanging from crosses. no, it was at eye level; eye level on the road
00:15:04.560 --> 00:15:06.028
No, it was at eye level; eye level on the road where everybody could see
00:15:06.095 --> 00:15:07.429
Eye level on the road where everybody could see how you were suffering.
00:15:07.496 --> 00:15:08.931
Where everybody could see how you were suffering. and you were naked;
00:15:08.998 --> 00:15:10.165
How you were suffering. and you were naked; you didn't have the thing
00:15:10.232 --> 00:15:11.233
And you were naked; you didn't have the thing around you that you see
00:15:11.300 --> 00:15:12.301
You didn't have the thing around you that you see in pictures.
00:15:12.368 --> 00:15:13.402
Around you that you see in pictures. no, you were stark naked
00:15:13.469 --> 00:15:15.371
In pictures. no, you were stark naked so you were shamed
00:15:15.437 --> 00:15:16.705
No, you were stark naked so you were shamed to begin with, and then
00:15:16.772 --> 00:15:17.873
So you were shamed to begin with, and then you were right here
00:15:17.940 --> 00:15:20.109
To begin with, and then you were right here so that people could look
00:15:20.175 --> 00:15:21.677
You were right here so that people could look at your suffering.
00:15:21.744 --> 00:15:23.178
So that people could look at your suffering. you could basically
00:15:23.245 --> 00:15:24.580
At your suffering. you could basically tell them by your suffering,
00:15:24.646 --> 00:15:26.081
You could basically tell them by your suffering, don't mess with rome.
00:15:26.148 --> 00:15:27.916
Tell them by your suffering, don't mess with rome. this is what
00:15:27.983 --> 00:15:29.184
Tammy: can i ask you
00:15:30.452 --> 00:15:31.420
Tammy: can i ask you something?
00:15:31.487 --> 00:15:32.488
Something? okay, i read your book
00:15:32.554 --> 00:15:33.589
Okay, i read your book and i have my own takeaway,
00:15:33.655 --> 00:15:35.958
And i have my own takeaway, which was what
00:15:36.025 --> 00:15:37.426
Which was what you talked about.
00:15:37.493 --> 00:15:38.794
I'm so glad i read it, truly.
00:15:40.362 --> 00:15:42.598
I'm so glad i read it, truly. i got through chapters
00:15:42.664 --> 00:15:44.066
I'm so glad i read it, truly. i got through chapters one, two, and three
00:15:44.133 --> 00:15:45.334
I got through chapters one, two, and three and i'm telling you, i had
00:15:45.401 --> 00:15:46.602
One, two, and three and i'm telling you, i had to look at siri and talk
00:15:46.668 --> 00:15:47.770
And i'm telling you, i had to look at siri and talk into my phone so many times
00:15:47.836 --> 00:15:48.837
To look at siri and talk into my phone so many times and say, "pronounce this word
00:15:48.904 --> 00:15:49.972
Into my phone so many times and say, "pronounce this word for me."
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:51.140
And say, "pronounce this word for me." or "tell me
00:15:51.206 --> 00:15:52.241
For me." or "tell me where this place is."
00:15:52.307 --> 00:15:53.475
Or "tell me where this place is." there was so much history
00:15:53.542 --> 00:15:54.643
Where this place is." there was so much history there that i felt like
00:15:54.710 --> 00:15:55.844
There was so much history there that i felt like i was learning along the way.
00:15:55.911 --> 00:15:56.912
There that i felt like i was learning along the way. so by chapter four,
00:15:56.979 --> 00:15:58.213
I was learning along the way. so by chapter four, i was all in.
00:15:58.280 --> 00:15:59.415
So by chapter four, i was all in. and so i think about
00:15:59.481 --> 00:16:00.549
I was all in. and so i think about when people were passing
00:16:00.616 --> 00:16:01.717
And so i think about when people were passing by this book,
00:16:01.784 --> 00:16:03.252
When people were passing by this book, looking at herod and mary ,
00:16:03.318 --> 00:16:05.087

And i just went -- i couldn't get through it. i could not get through it.
00:16:31.046 --> 00:16:32.147
I couldn't get through it. i could not get through it. it took me a long time.
00:16:32.214 --> 00:16:33.849
I could not get through it. it took me a long time. i remember thinking,
00:16:33.916 --> 00:16:35.017
It took me a long time. i remember thinking, jesus, i hope
00:16:35.084 --> 00:16:36.418
I remember thinking, jesus, i hope that when people get
00:16:36.485 --> 00:16:37.853
Jesus, i hope that when people get to the end of this book
00:16:37.920 --> 00:16:42.024
That when people get to the end of this book they will have the hope.

They will have the hope. they will have the hope that the man on the cross
00:16:47.062 --> 00:16:50.699
They will have the hope that the man on the cross who had been crucified;
00:16:50.766 --> 00:16:52.468
That the man on the cross who had been crucified; it ends with a scene
00:16:52.534 --> 00:16:54.436
Who had been crucified; it ends with a scene between mary
00:16:54.503 --> 00:16:56.038
It ends with a scene between mary and somebody being crucified.
00:16:56.105 --> 00:16:58.006
Between mary and somebody being crucified. mary was coming back
00:16:58.073 --> 00:16:59.775
And somebody being crucified. mary was coming back from egypt when herod died,
00:16:59.842 --> 00:17:04.046
Mary was coming back from egypt when herod died, this horrible death
00:17:04.113 --> 00:17:05.380
From egypt when herod died, this horrible death that herod deserved.
00:17:05.447 --> 00:17:06.748
This horrible death that herod deserved. jesus did not deserve
00:17:06.815 --> 00:17:08.117
That herod deserved. jesus did not deserve the death he died from.
00:17:08.183 --> 00:17:09.918
Jesus did not deserve the death he died from. but mary has an interaction
00:17:09.985 --> 00:17:12.688
The death he died from. but mary has an interaction with somebody who is
00:17:12.754 --> 00:17:14.223
But mary has an interaction with somebody who is right like this to her.
00:17:14.289 --> 00:17:17.626
With somebody who is right like this to her. i can't tell the end
00:17:17.693 --> 00:17:18.894
Right like this to her. i can't tell the end because she feels jesus
00:17:18.961 --> 00:17:21.530
I can't tell the end because she feels jesus stirring under her cloak
00:17:21.597 --> 00:17:23.065
Because she feels jesus stirring under her cloak because they're going
00:17:23.132 --> 00:17:24.233
Stirring under her cloak because they're going back to nazareth.
00:17:24.299 --> 00:17:25.634
Because they're going back to nazareth. the same angel had come
00:17:25.701 --> 00:17:26.869
Back to nazareth. the same angel had come and said, "it is safe.
00:17:26.935 --> 00:17:28.770
The same angel had come and said, "it is safe. the men who are trying
00:17:28.837 --> 00:17:29.905
And said, "it is safe. the men who are trying to kill her are dead.
00:17:29.972 --> 00:17:31.340
The men who are trying to kill her are dead. go! go home."
00:17:31.406 --> 00:17:32.808

Because you will realize if there's hope for that man, hanging on a cross
00:17:44.153 --> 00:17:47.923
If there's hope for that man, hanging on a cross dying an agonizing death,
00:17:47.990 --> 00:17:50.159
That man, hanging on a cross dying an agonizing death, if there is hope for him,
