but behind closed doors

welcome you to <i>Life Today</i>.

00:00:58.258 --> 00:00:59.626 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
We've got a wonderful guest

00:00:59.692 --> 00:01:00.994 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
that is very much loved

00:01:01.060 --> 00:01:02.228 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
and very popular.

00:01:02.295 --> 00:01:04.097 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
Her name is Nicole Mullen,

00:01:04.164 --> 00:01:05.865 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
and she's got a book here now,

<i>It's Never Wrong</i>

00:01:07.734 --> 00:01:09.102 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
<i>to Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:01:09.169 --> 00:01:10.236 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Why would you ever

00:01:10.303 --> 00:01:11.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
wonder about that?

00:01:11.504 --> 00:01:12.939 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
It's pretty easy to do, but

00:01:13.006 --> 00:01:14.107 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I think after you listen

00:01:14.174 --> 00:01:15.708 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to her, and hopefully,

00:01:15.775 --> 00:01:17.343 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
you'll get the book but

00:01:17.410 --> 00:01:18.511 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I think what you hear today

00:01:18.578 --> 00:01:19.712 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%

00:01:31.791 --> 00:01:32.792 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
JAMES: Thanks for being

00:01:32.859 --> 00:01:33.860 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
our friend.

00:01:33.927 --> 00:01:34.928 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
NICOLE: My pleasure.

00:01:34.994 --> 00:01:36.563 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
JAMES: I want you to take off

00:01:36.629 --> 00:01:37.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
on the situation.

00:01:37.697 --> 00:01:39.365 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
we realize that sometimes

00:01:39.432 --> 00:01:40.667 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
it's painful, it seems like,

00:01:40.733 --> 00:01:42.268 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to do the right thing,

00:01:42.335 --> 00:01:43.970 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
but it's right to do it.

00:01:44.037 --> 00:01:45.071 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
But can you tell us

00:01:45.138 --> 00:01:46.339 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
about the journey of pain

00:01:46.406 --> 00:01:47.907 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
that started when

00:01:47.974 --> 00:01:50.009 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
you were quite young?

00:01:50.076 --> 00:01:51.077 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
You had enough stuff

00:01:51.144 --> 00:01:52.345 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
thrown at you that you could

00:01:52.412 --> 00:01:54.147 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
be wondering why was it hard

00:01:54.214 --> 00:01:56.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
to do the right thing for you,

00:01:56.249 --> 00:01:57.450 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and when they know

00:01:57.517 --> 00:01:58.785 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
awful things that happened,

00:01:58.852 --> 00:02:00.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
and they might understand.

00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:01.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But <i>It's Never Wrong</i>

NICOLE: Thank you again

00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:07.427 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
for having me.

00:02:07.494 --> 00:02:08.495 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
I'm so thrilled because

00:02:08.561 --> 00:02:09.562 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
the Lord has been good,

00:02:09.629 --> 00:02:10.630 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
even through the good

00:02:10.697 --> 00:02:11.698 align:start line:63% position:10% size:30%
and the bad.

00:02:11.764 --> 00:02:12.832 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
I was blessed to grow up

00:02:12.899 --> 00:02:13.900 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
in a Christian home.

00:02:13.967 --> 00:02:14.968 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
My parents were deacons

00:02:15.034 --> 00:02:16.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
in the church.

00:02:16.102 --> 00:02:17.103 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
My grandparents were

00:02:17.170 --> 00:02:18.171 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Pentecostal pastors

00:02:18.238 --> 00:02:19.305 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
on both sides of the family.

00:02:19.372 --> 00:02:20.740 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
So I love to say I was

00:02:20.807 --> 00:02:21.808 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
in church like eight, nine,

00:02:21.875 --> 00:02:22.876 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
ten days a week,

00:02:22.942 --> 00:02:23.943 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
like all the time.

00:02:24.010 --> 00:02:25.378 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But it was in the midst of

00:02:25.445 --> 00:02:26.679 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
another circumstance that

00:02:26.746 --> 00:02:28.081 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I really had a chance

00:02:28.147 --> 00:02:29.616 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to learn the heart of God.

00:02:29.682 --> 00:02:30.717 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
When I was around 20,

00:02:30.783 --> 00:02:32.919 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
almost 21, I said "I do"

00:02:32.986 --> 00:02:34.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to a man that I thought

00:02:34.087 --> 00:02:35.588 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
on the outside was just

00:02:35.655 --> 00:02:36.756 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
"the one."

00:02:36.823 --> 00:02:37.857 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
He had the right lingo,

00:02:37.924 --> 00:02:39.259 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
he had the right look,

00:02:39.325 --> 00:02:42.061 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
he was "in the ministry,"

00:02:42.128 --> 00:02:43.496 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
but behind closed doors

00:02:43.563 --> 00:02:44.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
for about three years,

00:02:44.631 --> 00:02:46.699 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
he would beat me physically.

00:02:46.766 --> 00:02:48.134 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
I remember --

00:02:48.201 --> 00:02:49.435 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
JAMES: It's hard to believe!

00:02:49.502 --> 00:02:51.838 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
NICOLE: So just having that.

00:02:51.905 --> 00:02:53.773 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I remember one night,

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:55.475 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
just asking the Lord

00:02:55.542 --> 00:02:58.177 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to take me in my sleep.

00:02:58.244 --> 00:02:59.779 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I love it because sometimes

00:02:59.846 --> 00:03:01.681 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the best, yes, the Lord will

00:03:01.748 --> 00:03:03.016 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
give us is in the form

00:03:03.082 --> 00:03:04.217 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20%
of a no.

00:03:04.284 --> 00:03:06.920 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
So the Lord gave me that no,

00:03:06.986 --> 00:03:08.087 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
but he awakened me

00:03:08.154 --> 00:03:09.088 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
the next day because

00:03:09.155 --> 00:03:11.591 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
he wasn't done with me.

00:03:11.658 --> 00:03:12.625 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
A lot of the encouragement

00:03:12.692 --> 00:03:13.793 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
that he has given me

00:03:13.860 --> 00:03:14.861 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
throughout the years,

00:03:14.928 --> 00:03:16.029 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
in him carrying me through

00:03:16.095 --> 00:03:17.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
different night-seasons,

00:03:17.630 --> 00:03:19.232 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
are found in the word.

00:03:19.299 --> 00:03:20.667 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So I found encouragement in

00:03:20.733 --> 00:03:22.735 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
a story of Abigail; you know,

00:03:22.802 --> 00:03:25.171 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Abigail in First Samuel 25,

00:03:25.238 --> 00:03:26.306 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and she had a husband

00:03:26.372 --> 00:03:27.473 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
named Nabal.

00:03:27.540 --> 00:03:28.575 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
The Bible says he was

00:03:28.641 --> 00:03:31.010 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
a little on the foolish side.

00:03:31.077 --> 00:03:32.445 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
He was actually bringing

00:03:32.512 --> 00:03:34.647 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
danger to their home,

00:03:34.714 --> 00:03:36.416 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and Abigail found the courage

00:03:36.482 --> 00:03:37.517 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
to do the right thing

00:03:37.584 --> 00:03:39.385 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
because she ran for safety.

00:03:39.452 --> 00:03:40.853 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
She ran for interference.

00:03:40.920 --> 00:03:42.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
She ran to David to say,

00:03:42.255 --> 00:03:43.289 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Hey, I didn't know about

00:03:43.356 --> 00:03:45.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
what he had said to you.

00:03:45.158 --> 00:03:46.826 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
I didn't know about him saying

00:03:46.893 --> 00:03:50.063 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
no for your request of goods.

00:03:50.129 --> 00:03:51.397 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And so, David was going

00:03:51.464 --> 00:03:52.632 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
to come and bring disaster,

00:03:52.699 --> 00:03:54.267 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
so she ran interference.

00:03:54.334 --> 00:03:56.436 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
In doing that, God allowed her

00:03:56.502 --> 00:03:58.371 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
to save their whole household.

00:03:58.438 --> 00:04:00.673 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
So she acted wisely.

00:04:00.740 --> 00:04:02.208 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
She also entrusted

00:04:02.275 --> 00:04:03.443 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
her husband to the Lord.

00:04:03.509 --> 00:04:04.611 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
She didn't go along with

00:04:04.677 --> 00:04:05.912 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
the wrong, she didn't go along

00:04:05.979 --> 00:04:06.946 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
with the danger, she didn't

00:04:07.013 --> 00:04:08.114 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
go along with the evil,

00:04:08.181 --> 00:04:09.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
she stood up

00:04:09.248 --> 00:04:10.249 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
for righteousness. And because

00:04:10.316 --> 00:04:11.351 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
of that, like I said,

00:04:11.417 --> 00:04:12.452 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
God brought safety.

00:04:12.518 --> 00:04:14.087 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So it gave me the courage

00:04:14.153 --> 00:04:15.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
in the midst

00:04:15.254 --> 00:04:16.422 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
of my night-season to say

00:04:16.489 --> 00:04:17.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
it's okay to run

00:04:17.690 --> 00:04:18.891 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
for safety sometimes.

00:04:18.958 --> 00:04:19.892 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Sometimes, you're going

00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:20.994 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to have to appeal

00:04:21.060 --> 00:04:22.095 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to someone else and say,

00:04:22.161 --> 00:04:23.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
We need help here.

00:04:23.196 --> 00:04:24.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
What do I need to do?

00:04:24.964 --> 00:04:26.499 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
So her courage gave me

00:04:26.566 --> 00:04:27.533 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
courage in the midst

00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:28.868 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
of that night-season.

00:04:28.935 --> 00:04:33.039 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
It also led me back to

00:04:33.106 --> 00:04:34.474 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
just even the origins

00:04:34.540 --> 00:04:35.541 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
of my family.

00:04:35.608 --> 00:04:36.609 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
God has been good

00:04:36.676 --> 00:04:38.111 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to my family, like I said

00:04:38.177 --> 00:04:39.312 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
earlier, and I was able

00:04:39.379 --> 00:04:40.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
to write about them

00:04:40.446 --> 00:04:41.848 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
in the book as well.

00:04:41.914 --> 00:04:43.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
But my grandmother,

00:04:43.249 --> 00:04:44.717 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
back in the day, her and

00:04:44.784 --> 00:04:46.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
my grandfather, they were

00:04:46.219 --> 00:04:47.987 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
young 20 somethings

00:04:48.054 --> 00:04:49.622 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
when they got married.

00:04:49.689 --> 00:04:50.857 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
It just so happens,

00:04:50.923 --> 00:04:51.958 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
today is her birthday,

00:04:52.025 --> 00:04:53.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
would have been her birthday.

00:04:53.526 --> 00:04:54.727 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
But they had gotten married

00:04:54.794 --> 00:04:56.896 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and were living in the South.

00:04:56.963 --> 00:04:57.997 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
They had lost their first

00:04:58.064 --> 00:04:59.098 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
child because they had

00:04:59.165 --> 00:05:00.466 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
a baby soon after.

00:05:00.533 --> 00:05:02.068 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
So they moved to Cincinnati,

00:05:02.135 --> 00:05:03.202 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Ohio, where I was born

00:05:03.269 --> 00:05:04.303 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
and raised.

00:05:04.370 --> 00:05:05.371 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And before you knew it,

00:05:05.438 --> 00:05:06.439 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
they had another son,

00:05:06.506 --> 00:05:07.507 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
God had gifted them

00:05:07.573 --> 00:05:08.574 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
with another child.

00:05:08.641 --> 00:05:09.642 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Well, everybody was happy.

00:05:09.709 --> 00:05:10.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Then all of a sudden,

00:05:10.777 --> 00:05:11.778 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
the doctors told

00:05:11.844 --> 00:05:13.012 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
my grandmother, after she had

00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:14.313 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
had her newborn, to just

00:05:14.380 --> 00:05:15.381 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
leave him in the hospital,

00:05:15.448 --> 00:05:17.216 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
this is 1936, because

00:05:17.283 --> 00:05:19.118 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
he wasn't going to make it.

00:05:19.185 --> 00:05:20.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Well, that didn't sit well

00:05:20.420 --> 00:05:21.421 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
with her because

00:05:21.487 --> 00:05:22.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
she loved life

00:05:22.555 --> 00:05:23.723 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and she believed Christ.

00:05:23.790 --> 00:05:24.924 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
She had remembered something

00:05:24.991 --> 00:05:26.526 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
in the Scripture that said

00:05:26.592 --> 00:05:27.927 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
that if someone is sick,

00:05:27.994 --> 00:05:29.062 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
take them to the elders

00:05:29.128 --> 00:05:30.263 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
of the church, and the prayer

00:05:30.329 --> 00:05:31.698 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
of faith will heal the sick.

00:05:31.764 --> 00:05:32.799 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
So she defied the doctor's

00:05:32.865 --> 00:05:34.600 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
orders and said, Huh-uh!

00:05:34.667 --> 00:05:35.835 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I'm taking my baby.

00:05:35.902 --> 00:05:37.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
She took him to the house

00:05:37.070 --> 00:05:39.038 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
of God, and the elders prayed.

00:05:39.105 --> 00:05:40.339 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
And because of that,

00:05:40.406 --> 00:05:42.275 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the Lord granted him life,

00:05:42.341 --> 00:05:43.810 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
and he lived.

00:05:43.876 --> 00:05:45.545 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So eventually, this young son

00:05:45.611 --> 00:05:47.447 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
of hers grew up,

00:05:47.513 --> 00:05:48.581 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and began to sing.

00:05:48.648 --> 00:05:50.283 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
He sang like Nat King Cole.

00:05:50.349 --> 00:05:52.652 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And he met a woman.

00:05:52.719 --> 00:05:53.820 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
She was, well, 16 at the time,

00:05:53.886 --> 00:05:55.054 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
and he was 25.

00:05:55.121 --> 00:05:56.189 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I mean, we don't do that

00:05:56.255 --> 00:05:57.623 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
these days, but anyway,

00:05:57.690 --> 00:05:58.791 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
they got married and had

00:05:58.858 --> 00:06:00.560 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
three beautiful girls.

00:06:00.626 --> 00:06:01.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
I'm the youngest

00:06:01.894 --> 00:06:03.396 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
of the three.

00:06:03.463 --> 00:06:05.364 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So without my grandmother

00:06:05.431 --> 00:06:06.666 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
standing up for life,

00:06:06.733 --> 00:06:07.700 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
without my grandmother

00:06:07.767 --> 00:06:10.036 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
fighting for her son to live,

00:06:10.103 --> 00:06:11.637 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I wouldn't be here.

00:06:11.704 --> 00:06:13.773 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I would have no existence.

00:06:13.840 --> 00:06:15.141 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And so I honor her.

00:06:15.208 --> 00:06:16.342 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I honor her tenacity.

00:06:16.409 --> 00:06:18.745 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I honor her in the face

00:06:18.811 --> 00:06:21.280 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
of a diagnosis of, no,

00:06:21.347 --> 00:06:22.615 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
he's not going to live.

00:06:22.682 --> 00:06:23.816 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Or no, he shouldn't live

00:06:23.883 --> 00:06:24.817 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
because there are those

00:06:24.884 --> 00:06:25.918 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
who maybe didn't want him

00:06:25.985 --> 00:06:27.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to live either.

00:06:27.220 --> 00:06:28.254 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But she said, No, his life

00:06:28.321 --> 00:06:29.522 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
is valuable.

00:06:29.589 --> 00:06:31.157 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
And so because of her example,

00:06:31.224 --> 00:06:32.325 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
they have taught me to value

00:06:32.391 --> 00:06:33.426 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
life from the womb

00:06:33.493 --> 00:06:34.560 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
to the tomb.

00:06:34.627 --> 00:06:35.995 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
So after that, my grandparents

00:06:36.062 --> 00:06:37.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
went on and they had

00:06:37.163 --> 00:06:38.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
other children.

00:06:38.397 --> 00:06:39.732 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
They became foster parents,

00:06:39.799 --> 00:06:40.933 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and eventually,

00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:42.635 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
they adopted children.

00:06:42.702 --> 00:06:44.537 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
From that, as my parents,

00:06:44.604 --> 00:06:46.606 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
they grew, they also

00:06:46.672 --> 00:06:48.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
became foster parents,

00:06:48.241 --> 00:06:49.442 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and then they adopted

00:06:49.509 --> 00:06:50.810 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
two of my siblings.

00:06:50.877 --> 00:06:52.912 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And then as I grew,

00:06:52.979 --> 00:06:54.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
as I was growing,

00:06:54.247 --> 00:06:55.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I saw my aunts and uncles,

00:06:55.414 --> 00:06:56.916 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
they did the same.

00:06:56.983 --> 00:06:59.318 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
My sister became a foster mom.

00:06:59.385 --> 00:07:00.653 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
And then eventually, when

00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:01.954 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
it was my turn, I was able

00:07:02.021 --> 00:07:03.623 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to take in some children.

00:07:03.689 --> 00:07:05.191 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
They were unofficially foster

00:07:05.258 --> 00:07:06.325 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
kids but then I was able

00:07:06.392 --> 00:07:08.661 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to officially adopt.

00:07:08.728 --> 00:07:10.563 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
My oldest son is adopted.

00:07:10.630 --> 00:07:11.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
He was adopted at the age

00:07:11.931 --> 00:07:13.332 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
of three and a half weeks old.

00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:14.834 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
He is now 28

00:07:14.901 --> 00:07:15.902 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
and he's married,

00:07:15.968 --> 00:07:17.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and he has my first grandson.

00:07:17.336 --> 00:07:19.038 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And so, he and his wife

00:07:19.105 --> 00:07:20.173 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
are looking to eventually

00:07:20.239 --> 00:07:21.407 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
adopt and increase

00:07:21.474 --> 00:07:22.775 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
their families also.

00:07:22.842 --> 00:07:24.677 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
And so from their legacy,

00:07:24.744 --> 00:07:26.179 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
from their examples,

00:07:26.245 --> 00:07:28.114 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
they did not just teach us

00:07:28.181 --> 00:07:31.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to value life in your words,

00:07:32.051 --> 00:07:33.452 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
but when you value life,

00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:34.654 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
when you're protecting life,

00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.322 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
it causes you to do something.

00:07:36.389 --> 00:07:37.490 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
And sometimes,

00:07:37.557 --> 00:07:38.591 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that will cause you

00:07:38.658 --> 00:07:39.792 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to be inconvenienced

00:07:39.859 --> 00:07:41.027 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
but life is worth it

00:07:41.093 --> 00:07:42.261 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
because life matters.

00:07:42.328 --> 00:07:44.430 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Because of that, my heart

00:07:44.497 --> 00:07:45.731 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
is to protect life.

00:07:45.798 --> 00:07:47.333 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
My heart is to speak up

00:07:47.400 --> 00:07:48.501 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
for life.

00:07:48.568 --> 00:07:50.870 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
My heart is to say, even if

00:07:50.937 --> 00:07:52.405 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
you've made a bad decision

00:07:52.471 --> 00:07:53.439 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
in the past, because I know

00:07:53.506 --> 00:07:54.707 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
a lot of my sister girls,

00:07:54.774 --> 00:07:56.209 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
they've made, you know,

00:07:56.275 --> 00:07:57.276 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
not so good decisions

00:07:57.343 --> 00:07:58.377 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
in the past

00:07:58.444 --> 00:07:59.745 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and I've been there.

00:07:59.812 --> 00:08:01.848 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
I've been tempted, but there's

00:08:01.914 --> 00:08:03.416 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
forgiveness for whatever

00:08:03.482 --> 00:08:05.117 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
it is that we repent of.

00:08:05.184 --> 00:08:06.252 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And there's healing for

00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:07.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
whatever is broken on

00:08:07.420 --> 00:08:08.421 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
the inside of us,

00:08:08.487 --> 00:08:09.722 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and Christ is the cure.

00:08:09.789 --> 00:08:10.957 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So for those who may have

00:08:11.023 --> 00:08:12.225 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
made a wrong decision,

00:08:12.291 --> 00:08:13.326 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
there's grace

00:08:13.392 --> 00:08:14.427 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and there's mercy.

00:08:14.493 --> 00:08:15.561 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
God loves them.

00:08:15.628 --> 00:08:16.662 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
He cares about them,

00:08:16.729 --> 00:08:17.763 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and he wants to make them

00:08:17.830 --> 00:08:19.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
the biggest champion for life.

00:08:19.098 --> 00:08:20.233 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
For those who are looking

00:08:20.299 --> 00:08:21.300 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
to adopt, the Lord, I believe

00:08:21.367 --> 00:08:23.069 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
has the right someone

00:08:23.135 --> 00:08:24.203 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
out there, the right child

00:08:24.270 --> 00:08:25.671 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
out there to help increase

00:08:25.738 --> 00:08:27.440 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
their families.

00:08:27.506 --> 00:08:28.674 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I believe there are

00:08:28.741 --> 00:08:30.443 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
other roles for people who may

00:08:30.509 --> 00:08:32.211 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
not be an adoptive family,

00:08:32.278 --> 00:08:33.379 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
but they might be someone

00:08:33.446 --> 00:08:34.647 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
who can help facilitate

00:08:34.714 --> 00:08:36.182 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
that adoption.

00:08:36.249 --> 00:08:38.184 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
There's grace for them, too.

00:08:38.251 --> 00:08:39.619 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
So a lot of that is included

00:08:39.685 --> 00:08:41.888 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
in the book but <i>It's Never</i>

00:08:41.954 --> 00:08:43.456 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
<i>Wrong to Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:08:43.522 --> 00:08:45.324 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
JAMES: What we're doing with

00:08:45.391 --> 00:08:47.593 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
Rescue Life is we're giving

00:08:47.660 --> 00:08:48.961 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
a home and a future

00:08:49.028 --> 00:08:50.663 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
to those who had no hope,

00:08:50.730 --> 00:08:51.864 align:start line:63% position:10% size:25%
no future,

00:08:51.931 --> 00:08:52.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
those who have been

00:08:53.032 --> 00:08:54.367 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
taken prisoner.

00:08:54.433 --> 00:08:55.902 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
We can actually get in;

00:08:55.968 --> 00:08:57.036 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
we actually work with

00:08:57.103 --> 00:08:58.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
law enforcement now to go in

00:08:58.304 --> 00:08:59.972 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and get them out of the place

00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:01.040 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
where they're being held

00:09:01.107 --> 00:09:02.608 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
captive and take them into

00:09:02.675 --> 00:09:04.577 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
a new place in another area

00:09:04.644 --> 00:09:05.845 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
where they're safe.

00:09:05.912 --> 00:09:07.013 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
And then, we find many

00:09:07.079 --> 00:09:08.247 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
of them who are vulnerable

00:09:08.314 --> 00:09:09.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
to be taken,

00:09:09.849 --> 00:09:11.951 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and we show them a way.

00:09:12.018 --> 00:09:13.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Many of these children,

00:09:13.219 --> 00:09:14.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Betty, which we've seen,

00:09:14.420 --> 00:09:15.588 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
they go out to the children

00:09:15.655 --> 00:09:18.124 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
living in impoverished areas,

00:09:18.190 --> 00:09:19.558 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and they will actually go up

00:09:19.625 --> 00:09:20.626 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to the family and say,

00:09:20.693 --> 00:09:21.761 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We're going to give

00:09:21.827 --> 00:09:23.195 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
your daughter a future.

00:09:23.262 --> 00:09:24.297 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
We're going to get them

00:09:24.363 --> 00:09:25.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:15%
a job.

00:09:25.398 --> 00:09:26.465 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
We're going to get them

00:09:26.532 --> 00:09:27.600 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
trained, and we'll give you

00:09:27.667 --> 00:09:29.769 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
a $100 for your child

00:09:29.835 --> 00:09:30.836 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
or we'll give you

00:09:30.903 --> 00:09:32.505 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
a television or a radio,

00:09:32.571 --> 00:09:33.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
which they have nothing.

00:09:33.806 --> 00:09:34.740 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
They will actually trade

00:09:34.807 --> 00:09:36.375 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
the child, believing the child

00:09:36.442 --> 00:09:37.576 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
is going to get help --

00:09:37.643 --> 00:09:38.744 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
but they don't.

00:09:38.811 --> 00:09:40.346 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
They take them, literally,

00:09:40.413 --> 00:09:41.681 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
take them captive

00:09:41.747 --> 00:09:42.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and take them where

00:09:42.848 --> 00:09:43.849 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the parents can't find them,

00:09:43.916 --> 00:09:44.951 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and they use them.

00:09:45.017 --> 00:09:46.018 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
We set them free.

00:09:46.085 --> 00:09:47.086 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And then we show people

00:09:47.153 --> 00:09:48.120 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
how they can love.

00:09:48.187 --> 00:09:49.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
That's what our viewers do.

00:09:49.288 --> 00:09:50.256 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Well, <i>It's Never Wrong</i>

00:09:50.323 --> 00:09:51.357 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
<i>To Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:09:51.424 --> 00:09:53.092 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
What are some of the things

00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:54.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that you think people

00:09:54.327 --> 00:09:55.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
might feel like it's a strain

00:09:55.895 --> 00:09:57.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to do this, it's difficult

00:09:57.196 --> 00:09:58.197 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
to do this?

00:09:58.264 --> 00:09:59.799 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Some of them you touch on

00:09:59.865 --> 00:10:00.866 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
in the book.

00:10:00.933 --> 00:10:01.934 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
NICOLE: I think sometimes

00:10:02.001 --> 00:10:03.002 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
people may think that

00:10:03.069 --> 00:10:04.070 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
certain times

00:10:04.136 --> 00:10:05.304 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
it's too expensive;

00:10:05.371 --> 00:10:06.839 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
it may cost me too much.

00:10:06.906 --> 00:10:08.374 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But I think if we are saying,

00:10:08.441 --> 00:10:10.142 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
okay, Lord, I belong to you

00:10:10.209 --> 00:10:11.877 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
and life matters,

00:10:11.944 --> 00:10:13.145 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
then there's really no price

00:10:13.212 --> 00:10:14.413 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that's too great because

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:15.614 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Christ has already

00:10:15.681 --> 00:10:16.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
set the example.

00:10:16.849 --> 00:10:17.883 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
The Bible says, "God so loved

00:10:17.950 --> 00:10:19.051 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the world that he gave

00:10:19.118 --> 00:10:20.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
his only begotten Son."

00:10:20.419 --> 00:10:21.754 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
So when we are saying

00:10:21.821 --> 00:10:22.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that we love someone,

00:10:22.922 --> 00:10:23.990 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the next thing that

00:10:24.056 --> 00:10:25.024 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
we're called to do

00:10:25.091 --> 00:10:26.125 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
is really to give.

00:10:26.192 --> 00:10:27.326 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
And really, the proof of

00:10:27.393 --> 00:10:28.427 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
our love for Christ

00:10:28.494 --> 00:10:30.429 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
is our obedience to His Word.

00:10:30.496 --> 00:10:33.032 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
And also, it's like the proof

00:10:33.099 --> 00:10:35.101 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
that we are living out

00:10:35.167 --> 00:10:36.502 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
our faith is that

00:10:36.569 --> 00:10:37.536 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
we're attaching it

00:10:37.603 --> 00:10:38.871 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
with our works.

00:10:38.938 --> 00:10:39.872 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
So if we're saying,

00:10:39.939 --> 00:10:41.273 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I believe in freedom,

00:10:41.340 --> 00:10:43.109 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I believe in the children,

00:10:43.175 --> 00:10:44.310 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
I believe in life,

00:10:44.377 --> 00:10:46.145 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
then we are called to either

00:10:46.212 --> 00:10:47.213 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
be someone to take

00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:48.314 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
these children.

00:10:48.381 --> 00:10:49.515 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I believe, or we're called

00:10:49.582 --> 00:10:51.717 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
to support ministries

00:10:51.784 --> 00:10:52.818 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
like yours who are saying,

00:10:52.885 --> 00:10:54.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I want to help facilitate

00:10:54.754 --> 00:10:56.856 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
the rescue, the livelihood,

00:10:56.922 --> 00:10:59.225 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the freedom of a child.

00:10:59.291 --> 00:11:01.093 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
We're called to put faith

00:11:01.160 --> 00:11:03.029 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
and works together, otherwise,

00:11:03.095 --> 00:11:04.397 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
our faith is dead

00:11:04.463 --> 00:11:05.498 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
if it's just something

00:11:05.564 --> 00:11:07.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
that we say, but we don't do.

00:11:07.633 --> 00:11:09.001 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
BETTY: Well, I think, too,

00:11:09.068 --> 00:11:10.636 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and you kind of related to it

00:11:10.703 --> 00:11:12.838 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
earlier through your story

00:11:12.905 --> 00:11:15.107 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
is we kind of tend to think,

00:11:15.174 --> 00:11:16.308 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
okay, God, I love you

00:11:16.375 --> 00:11:17.410 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
with all my heart.

00:11:17.476 --> 00:11:18.644 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You're in my heart.

00:11:18.711 --> 00:11:21.414 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
Now it should be smooth going.

00:11:21.480 --> 00:11:23.149 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
We've been greatly deceived.

00:11:23.215 --> 00:11:24.683 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
God never promised that.

00:11:24.750 --> 00:11:26.786 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
He said, Hold on to me

00:11:26.852 --> 00:11:29.255 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and trust me in all ways,

00:11:29.321 --> 00:11:30.489 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and I will bring you

00:11:30.556 --> 00:11:31.557 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and give you the desires

00:11:31.624 --> 00:11:32.591 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
of your heart.

00:11:32.658 --> 00:11:33.826 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
We married, we had

00:11:33.893 --> 00:11:35.761 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
our first child.

00:11:35.828 --> 00:11:36.996 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
And then I wanted

00:11:37.063 --> 00:11:39.465 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
more children so, so bad.

00:11:39.532 --> 00:11:41.033 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
It just wasn't happening.

00:11:41.100 --> 00:11:42.368 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
I'd been to the doctor

00:11:42.435 --> 00:11:43.536 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
and they said, "Well,

00:11:43.602 --> 00:11:44.570 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
to be honest with you,

00:11:44.637 --> 00:11:45.671 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
you have some

00:11:45.738 --> 00:11:46.705 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
physical challenges.

00:11:46.772 --> 00:11:47.840 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
I don't think you'll ever

00:11:47.907 --> 00:11:48.941 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
have another child."

00:11:49.008 --> 00:11:50.076 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
Well, that broke my heart.

00:11:50.142 --> 00:11:52.344 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So I immediately went to God.

00:11:52.411 --> 00:11:53.746 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I said, God, this was

00:11:53.813 --> 00:11:55.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the desire of my heart.

00:11:55.347 --> 00:11:56.582 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
What's going on?

00:11:56.649 --> 00:11:58.484 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
He said, Trust me.

00:11:58.551 --> 00:12:00.352 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
And then a year, oh,

00:12:00.419 --> 00:12:01.921 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
five years later, Rhonda was

00:12:01.987 --> 00:12:03.456 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
about five, God brought

00:12:03.522 --> 00:12:05.357 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
this little precious boy

00:12:05.424 --> 00:12:06.759 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
into our hearts,

00:12:06.826 --> 00:12:08.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
we adopted him.

00:12:08.761 --> 00:12:09.862 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Three years later,

00:12:09.929 --> 00:12:11.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
God answered the desire

00:12:11.097 --> 00:12:12.932 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
of my heart,

00:12:12.998 --> 00:12:14.400 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I had another child that

00:12:14.467 --> 00:12:16.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I wasn't supposed to have.

00:12:16.102 --> 00:12:18.204 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So if we just wait for God,

00:12:18.270 --> 00:12:19.705 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
we don't get in a hurry, but

00:12:19.772 --> 00:12:21.140 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
we follow the path

00:12:21.207 --> 00:12:22.208 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that he's put us on

00:12:22.274 --> 00:12:23.709 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and be faithful,

00:12:23.776 --> 00:12:25.211 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
He will lead us

00:12:25.277 --> 00:12:26.212 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
in the right way.

00:12:26.278 --> 00:12:28.447 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
NICOLE: Yes and amen!

00:12:28.514 --> 00:12:29.682 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
That will preach in itself.

00:12:29.748 --> 00:12:30.816 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
That also reminds me,

00:12:30.883 --> 00:12:32.151 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Miss Betty, of the story

00:12:32.218 --> 00:12:33.219 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
of Hannah.

00:12:33.285 --> 00:12:34.286 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I speak about Hannah

00:12:34.353 --> 00:12:35.521 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in the Bible, too.

00:12:35.588 --> 00:12:36.589 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
She was actually barren,

00:12:36.655 --> 00:12:37.656 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
and she couldn't have

00:12:37.723 --> 00:12:38.757 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
any children, and she was

00:12:38.824 --> 00:12:39.859 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
taunted by another woman

00:12:39.925 --> 00:12:41.160 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
who kept making fun of her.

00:12:41.227 --> 00:12:42.228 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
She poured out her heart

00:12:42.294 --> 00:12:43.496 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
to God, and she was like,

00:12:43.562 --> 00:12:44.563 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
God, if you give me

00:12:44.630 --> 00:12:45.631 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
what I want the most,

00:12:45.698 --> 00:12:46.966 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I'm going to give this child

00:12:47.032 --> 00:12:48.033 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
back to you.

00:12:48.100 --> 00:12:49.135 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And you know, my head

00:12:49.201 --> 00:12:50.202 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
is kind of like thinking,

00:12:50.269 --> 00:12:51.437 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
you know, saying, God, if you

00:12:51.504 --> 00:12:52.505 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
give me a million dollars,

00:12:52.571 --> 00:12:53.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I'm going to give you

00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:54.640 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the whole one million.

00:12:54.707 --> 00:12:55.908 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I'm not just going to just

00:12:55.975 --> 00:12:56.976 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
pay my tithe, I'm going

00:12:57.042 --> 00:12:58.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to give it all.

00:12:58.110 --> 00:12:59.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But she's knew that she could

00:12:59.345 --> 00:13:00.346 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
never give to God more

00:13:00.412 --> 00:13:01.413 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
than he would multiply

00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:02.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
back to her.

00:13:02.548 --> 00:13:04.316 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And so she prayed and

00:13:04.383 --> 00:13:05.618 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
she asked God, and she poured

00:13:05.684 --> 00:13:06.852 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
out her heart to him

00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:08.087 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and the Lord heard her.

00:13:08.154 --> 00:13:09.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Immediately after she poured

00:13:09.522 --> 00:13:11.056 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
her heart out to God,

00:13:11.123 --> 00:13:12.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the Bible says that

00:13:12.424 --> 00:13:13.392 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
her countenance changed.

00:13:13.459 --> 00:13:14.827 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Like her face was no longer

00:13:14.894 --> 00:13:16.495 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
downcast, and her appetite

00:13:16.562 --> 00:13:17.496 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
returned.

00:13:17.563 --> 00:13:18.597 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Her appetite for life

00:13:18.664 --> 00:13:19.598 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
returned because she had

00:13:19.665 --> 00:13:20.666 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
poured out her heart.

00:13:20.733 --> 00:13:22.501 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
She believed by faith

00:13:22.568 --> 00:13:23.802 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
he had heard her, and that

00:13:23.869 --> 00:13:25.037 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
he would grant her what

00:13:25.104 --> 00:13:26.138 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
she had requested of him.

00:13:26.205 --> 00:13:27.640 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
And in the course of time,

00:13:27.706 --> 00:13:28.874 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
God allowed her

00:13:28.941 --> 00:13:30.042 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
to become pregnant.

00:13:30.109 --> 00:13:31.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
We know that her son

00:13:31.143 --> 00:13:32.378 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
was Samuel.

00:13:32.444 --> 00:13:34.446 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
He was one of the mightiest

00:13:34.513 --> 00:13:37.249 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
judges and prophets in Israel.

00:13:37.316 --> 00:13:38.384 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
He began to rule

00:13:38.450 --> 00:13:39.652 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
before they had a king.

00:13:39.718 --> 00:13:40.719 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
He's the one who installed

00:13:40.786 --> 00:13:43.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
King Saul and King David.

00:13:43.522 --> 00:13:46.025 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
But it started with a woman

00:13:46.091 --> 00:13:47.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
who decided to ask God --

00:13:47.526 --> 00:13:49.361 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
to go to God with her hurt

00:13:49.428 --> 00:13:50.429 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
and her heartache.

00:13:50.496 --> 00:13:51.530 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
A woman who decided, Lord,

00:13:51.597 --> 00:13:52.598 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
this is the desire

00:13:52.665 --> 00:13:53.666 align:start line:63% position:10% size:30%
of my heart.

00:13:53.732 --> 00:13:55.601 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
You said that if I trust

00:13:55.668 --> 00:13:56.735 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
in you, you would give me

00:13:56.802 --> 00:13:57.803 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
what to desire and

00:13:57.870 --> 00:13:58.904 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
then you would fulfill it.

00:13:58.971 --> 00:14:00.272 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And so, she took him up

00:14:00.339 --> 00:14:02.341 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
on his word that she must

00:14:02.408 --> 00:14:04.109 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
have perceived in her heart,

00:14:04.176 --> 00:14:06.879 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and the Lord answered.

00:14:06.946 --> 00:14:08.247 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
Regardless of what it is that

00:14:08.314 --> 00:14:09.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
we're asking God for, because

00:14:09.415 --> 00:14:10.482 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
we all have night-seasons,

00:14:10.549 --> 00:14:11.617 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we all have desires,

00:14:11.684 --> 00:14:13.018 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
we all have things that

00:14:13.085 --> 00:14:14.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
we feel like at times have

00:14:14.787 --> 00:14:15.854 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
been withheld from us,

00:14:15.921 --> 00:14:17.656 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
but God's timing is perfect.

00:14:17.723 --> 00:14:18.791 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I think sometimes

00:14:18.857 --> 00:14:20.059 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
he withholds things

00:14:20.125 --> 00:14:21.327 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
so that we will ask

00:14:21.393 --> 00:14:22.428 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
for the right thing

00:14:22.494 --> 00:14:23.562 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
at the right time, and

00:14:23.629 --> 00:14:24.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
then he can show off and

00:14:24.697 --> 00:14:26.098 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
he can flex as our hero.

00:14:26.165 --> 00:14:27.233 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
JAMES: One of the most

00:14:27.299 --> 00:14:28.434 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
powerful incidents

00:14:28.500 --> 00:14:29.668 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
in the Bible you talk about

00:14:29.735 --> 00:14:31.203 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
in the book, <i>It's Never Wrong</i>

00:14:31.270 --> 00:14:33.239 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
<i>to Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:14:33.305 --> 00:14:34.873 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
And it's the three men

00:14:34.940 --> 00:14:36.508 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
that were thrown in the fire.

00:14:36.575 --> 00:14:37.576 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
That has really,

00:14:37.643 --> 00:14:38.844 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
really blessed me because

00:14:38.911 --> 00:14:40.012 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the most powerful thing

00:14:40.079 --> 00:14:41.313 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
about it is, it says

00:14:41.380 --> 00:14:42.881 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
God is able to rescue us

00:14:42.948 --> 00:14:45.951 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
if the fire won't get us.

00:14:46.018 --> 00:14:47.186 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But even if it does,

00:14:47.253 --> 00:14:48.387 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
we're still not going

00:14:48.454 --> 00:14:49.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
to bow down to anyone

00:14:49.555 --> 00:14:50.556 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20%
but God.

00:14:50.623 --> 00:14:51.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
We are not going

00:14:51.690 --> 00:14:52.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to worship your idols.

00:14:52.725 --> 00:14:53.659 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
We're not going to worship

00:14:53.726 --> 00:14:54.827 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
you as king.

00:14:54.893 --> 00:14:56.095 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
We're not going to do it.

00:14:56.161 --> 00:14:57.229 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And I thought, boy,

00:14:57.296 --> 00:14:58.664 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
God, that is exactly right.

00:14:58.731 --> 00:15:00.132 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
But how did that story

00:15:00.199 --> 00:15:01.433 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
bless you so much?

00:15:01.500 --> 00:15:03.435 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
NICOLE: Really, Mr. James,

00:15:03.502 --> 00:15:05.404 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that's where we live.

00:15:05.471 --> 00:15:06.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Because a lot of times,

00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:08.073 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
we feel like, God can do it,

00:15:08.140 --> 00:15:09.308 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and he's going to do it,

00:15:09.375 --> 00:15:10.376 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
but sometimes, we get offended

00:15:10.442 --> 00:15:11.443 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
with God with the

00:15:11.510 --> 00:15:12.511 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
"even if he doesn't."

00:15:12.578 --> 00:15:13.779 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But that's where he causes us

00:15:13.846 --> 00:15:15.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
to say, okay, even if I don't,

00:15:15.347 --> 00:15:16.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
will you worship me?

00:15:16.415 --> 00:15:17.416 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Will you love me?

00:15:17.483 --> 00:15:18.484 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I've had those moments.

00:15:18.550 --> 00:15:19.752 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I thought, well, here I am.

00:15:19.818 --> 00:15:20.819 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I was a good kid.

00:15:20.886 --> 00:15:22.121 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I gave my heart to you

00:15:22.187 --> 00:15:23.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
at the age of eight,

00:15:23.255 --> 00:15:24.256 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
went to Bible school

00:15:24.323 --> 00:15:25.324 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
at the age of 17.

00:15:25.391 --> 00:15:26.392 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
I loved you.

00:15:26.458 --> 00:15:27.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
I kept myself.

00:15:27.526 --> 00:15:29.728 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
And God, I got abused!

00:15:29.795 --> 00:15:31.196 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I had hard times.

00:15:31.263 --> 00:15:32.264 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I thought that it would

00:15:32.331 --> 00:15:33.699 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
keep me from it.

00:15:33.766 --> 00:15:34.867 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But I think the real question

00:15:34.933 --> 00:15:36.402 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
like you're asking was,

00:15:36.468 --> 00:15:38.737 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
would I still serve him

00:15:38.804 --> 00:15:40.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
even if he didn't rescue me

00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:41.607 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
in my time,

00:15:41.674 --> 00:15:42.675 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
even if he didn't keep me

00:15:42.741 --> 00:15:43.742 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
from hardship?

00:15:43.809 --> 00:15:45.210 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
And my answer has to be yes.

00:15:45.277 --> 00:15:46.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
JAMES: Even if he doesn't

00:15:46.345 --> 00:15:47.513 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
do it the way you think

00:15:47.579 --> 00:15:48.580 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
He should.

00:15:48.647 --> 00:15:49.648 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
NICOLE: Absolutely!

00:15:49.715 --> 00:15:50.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I think that's what

00:15:50.783 --> 00:15:51.950 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
we all have to answer often.

00:15:52.017 --> 00:15:53.018 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
It's not even

00:15:53.085 --> 00:15:54.086 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
a one-time test.

00:15:54.153 --> 00:15:55.321 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
I think it's an everyday test

00:15:55.387 --> 00:15:56.388 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
because if my answer is

00:15:56.455 --> 00:15:57.456 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
no, I won't worship you

00:15:57.523 --> 00:15:58.524 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
beyond this, then really

00:15:58.590 --> 00:16:00.492 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
I'm saying that thing

00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
was my God and not you.

00:16:02.895 --> 00:16:04.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
He said it is he that has

00:16:04.196 --> 00:16:05.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
made us and not we ourselves.

00:16:05.397 --> 00:16:07.232 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
So my aim and my purpose

00:16:07.299 --> 00:16:08.834 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
is in everything

00:16:08.901 --> 00:16:10.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
to give him thanks.

00:16:10.102 --> 00:16:11.170 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Sometimes, it's hard to give

00:16:11.236 --> 00:16:12.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
him thanks for everything,

00:16:12.304 --> 00:16:13.339 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I'm not going to lie.

00:16:13.405 --> 00:16:14.406 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
But in everything

00:16:14.473 --> 00:16:15.641 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
we're commanded to say,

00:16:15.708 --> 00:16:17.309 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
God, I will worship you.

00:16:17.376 --> 00:16:19.211 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I will believe you.

00:16:19.278 --> 00:16:20.279 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I will trust you.

00:16:20.346 --> 00:16:21.447 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I will hold on to what you've

00:16:21.513 --> 00:16:22.781 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
already said, no matter what.

00:16:22.848 --> 00:16:23.849 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
JAMES: Yeah, that was

00:16:23.916 --> 00:16:24.983 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
a powerful statement you just

00:16:25.050 --> 00:16:27.019 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
made to say thank Him for it.

00:16:27.086 --> 00:16:28.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But in those things,

00:16:28.287 --> 00:16:29.321 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
thank him because

00:16:29.388 --> 00:16:30.389 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
he's still God,

00:16:30.456 --> 00:16:31.457 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
He's still able,

00:16:31.523 --> 00:16:32.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
He's still in control.

00:16:32.725 --> 00:16:33.859 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Give him the time

00:16:33.926 --> 00:16:35.060 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to work it out.

00:16:35.127 --> 00:16:36.128 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
You just deal

00:16:36.195 --> 00:16:37.663 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
in such a magnificent way.

00:16:37.730 --> 00:16:38.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
You not only have

00:16:38.931 --> 00:16:39.932 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
a great voice,

00:16:39.998 --> 00:16:41.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and ability to sing

00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:43.202 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
and write great songs, but,

00:16:43.268 --> 00:16:44.336 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
this book is great!

00:16:44.403 --> 00:16:45.504 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
And <i>It's Never Wrong</i>

00:16:45.571 --> 00:16:46.972 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
<i>to Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:48.040 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
And you're facing

00:16:48.107 --> 00:16:49.608 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
many challenges.

00:16:49.675 --> 00:16:51.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
You could be watching today

00:16:51.110 --> 00:16:52.044 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
as though you're the only one

00:16:52.111 --> 00:16:53.112 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
watching.

00:16:53.178 --> 00:16:54.413 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
God says, I got more than

00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:55.581 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
just the program, and

00:16:55.647 --> 00:16:57.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Nicole and Betty and James.

00:16:57.783 --> 00:16:58.884 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I've got something I think

00:16:58.951 --> 00:17:00.586 align:start line:58% position:10% size:58%
will be a real blessing

00:17:00.652 --> 00:17:01.720 align:start line:58% position:10% size:18%
to you.

00:17:01.787 --> 00:17:02.721 align:start line:58% position:10% size:35%
So here's what

00:17:02.788 --> 00:17:03.789 align:start line:58% position:10% size:58%
we're asking you to do.

00:17:03.856 --> 00:17:05.891 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
Just help us rescue those

00:17:05.958 --> 00:17:07.159 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
who are trafficked,

00:17:07.226 --> 00:17:08.961 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
sexually trafficked --

00:17:09.027 --> 00:17:11.230 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
mostly girls, some boys.

00:17:11.296 --> 00:17:12.698 align:start line:58% position:10% size:65%
But we have literally now,

00:17:12.765 --> 00:17:14.166 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
saved the lives of millions

00:17:14.233 --> 00:17:16.135 align:start line:58% position:10% size:73%
of people all over the world.

00:17:16.201 --> 00:17:17.202 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
We've been doing this

00:17:17.269 --> 00:17:18.737 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%
for nearly 20 years.

00:17:18.804 --> 00:17:20.873 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
We built huge rescue places

00:17:20.939 --> 00:17:22.808 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
like House of Destiny,

00:17:22.875 --> 00:17:24.209 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
all these different places.

00:17:24.276 --> 00:17:25.844 align:start line:58% position:10% size:28%
You did it.

00:17:25.911 --> 00:17:26.979 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
Betty, they saw

00:17:27.045 --> 00:17:28.046 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
the people suffering.

00:17:28.113 --> 00:17:29.181 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
They saw the opportunity

00:17:29.248 --> 00:17:30.716 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
to express God's love,

00:17:30.783 --> 00:17:31.917 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
and you've done it.

00:17:31.984 --> 00:17:33.652 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
We need you to do it again.

00:17:33.719 --> 00:17:35.187 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
By the way, we have

00:17:35.254 --> 00:17:36.555 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
some gifts to offer you.

00:17:36.622 --> 00:17:38.157 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
Don't miss getting

00:17:38.223 --> 00:17:39.425 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
the greatest, most beautiful

00:17:39.491 --> 00:17:41.093 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%
throw I've ever seen

00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:42.227 align:start line:58% position:10% size:28%
in my life.

00:17:42.294 --> 00:17:43.295 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
I'm telling you,

00:17:43.362 --> 00:17:44.363 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
I will be using this.

00:17:44.430 --> 00:17:45.497 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
I have poor blood flow

00:17:45.564 --> 00:17:47.433 align:start line:58% position:10% size:73%
in my legs and I use a throw.

00:17:47.499 --> 00:17:48.667 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
And that one is going

00:17:48.734 --> 00:17:49.902 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
to be the throw,

00:17:49.968 --> 00:17:51.170 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
and you will want it.

00:17:51.236 --> 00:17:52.638 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
But anyway, help us

00:17:52.704 --> 00:17:54.373 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
set people free.

00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:55.374 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
Please make the best gift

00:17:55.441 --> 00:17:56.475 align:start line:58% position:10% size:20%
you can.

00:17:56.542 --> 00:17:59.912 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
It takes $128 to rescue one.

00:17:59.978 --> 00:18:01.013 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%
How about rescue ten

00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:02.214 align:start line:58% position:10% size:25%
with 1280?

00:18:02.281 --> 00:18:03.215 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
Father, show people that

00:18:03.282 --> 00:18:04.249 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
they can do more than

00:18:04.316 --> 00:18:05.384 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
they might have thought.

00:18:05.451 --> 00:18:06.518 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
It may be the biggest thing

00:18:06.585 --> 00:18:07.786 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
they've ever done, but

00:18:07.853 --> 00:18:09.421 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
for the person and

00:18:09.488 --> 00:18:11.089 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
the individuals they rescue,

00:18:11.156 --> 00:18:12.191 align:start line:58% position:10% size:58%
it's the greatest thing

00:18:12.257 --> 00:18:14.226 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
that's ever happened to them

00:18:14.293 --> 00:18:16.195 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
-- they've been given life;

00:18:16.261 --> 00:18:17.429 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
in Jesus' name.

00:18:17.496 --> 00:18:19.064 align:start line:58% position:10% size:75%
Please just let God direct you

00:18:19.131 --> 00:18:20.399 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
in what you do.

00:18:20.466 --> 00:18:21.700 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I want you to look in on

00:18:21.767 --> 00:18:22.901 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a situation where you will

00:18:22.968 --> 00:18:25.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
see and hear from our mission

00:18:25.337 --> 00:18:27.339 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
workers, and see the love

00:18:27.406 --> 00:18:28.674 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and the compassion and

00:18:28.740 --> 00:18:31.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the courage and the blessing

00:18:31.310 --> 00:18:32.878 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
they're able to bestow

00:18:32.945 --> 00:18:35.113 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
because of people like you.

00:18:35.180 --> 00:18:37.382 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
You are a miracle worker

00:18:37.449 --> 00:18:38.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that many people thought

00:18:39.051 --> 00:18:40.486 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
they would never see.

00:18:40.552 --> 00:18:41.920 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Watch it prayerfully.

00:18:41.987 --> 00:18:43.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Watch it carefully.

Wherever we're able
to arrest a trafficker,

00:19:37.476 --> 00:19:39.478 align:center line:69% position:50% size:38%
it's a huge win

00:19:39.545 --> 00:19:41.713 align:center line:63% position:50% size:40%
because not only
does it mean

00:19:41.780 --> 00:19:44.082 align:center line:79% position:50% size:38%
that that place
is shut down

00:19:44.149 --> 00:19:46.084 align:center line:79% position:50% size:35%
but that might
mean that tens

00:19:46.151 --> 00:19:48.420 align:start line:79% position:28% size:43%
or maybe even
hundreds of girls

00:19:48.487 --> 00:19:50.422 align:center line:79% position:50% size:48%
won't be trafficked
because of them.

00:19:50.489 --> 00:19:52.424 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
<i>SWAT raids are</i>

00:19:54.526 --> 00:19:56.461 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%

00:20:00.699 --> 00:20:04.002 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%

00:20:43.375 --> 00:20:44.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
JAMES: I don't know

00:20:44.776 --> 00:20:46.244 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
how you could watch

00:20:46.311 --> 00:20:48.947 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and see those precious girls

00:20:49.014 --> 00:20:51.516 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and boys that are being held

00:20:51.583 --> 00:20:55.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
as sex slaves and not want

00:20:55.287 --> 00:20:56.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to set them free.

00:20:56.555 --> 00:20:59.224 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We can! We can because

00:20:59.291 --> 00:21:00.626 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
we found the people

00:21:00.692 --> 00:21:01.927 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
that have so much love

00:21:01.994 --> 00:21:03.795 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
that they plant God's love

00:21:03.862 --> 00:21:04.896 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
right in the midst of

00:21:04.963 --> 00:21:06.365 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that pain and suffering.

00:21:06.431 --> 00:21:07.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
Betty, they move

00:21:07.666 --> 00:21:09.601 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
their families from all over

00:21:09.668 --> 00:21:12.004 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the world to go there.

00:21:12.070 --> 00:21:13.305 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But they have to have support

00:21:13.372 --> 00:21:14.706 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
to be there.

00:21:14.773 --> 00:21:15.874 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I told the missionaries,

00:21:15.941 --> 00:21:17.042 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
Betty, "Let us come over here

00:21:17.109 --> 00:21:18.110 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and just stay here

00:21:18.176 --> 00:21:19.244 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
and help you."

00:21:19.311 --> 00:21:20.312 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
They said, "Please don't."

00:21:20.379 --> 00:21:21.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
It wasn't that they didn't

00:21:21.446 --> 00:21:22.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
like us or want us.

00:21:22.547 --> 00:21:23.749 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
They said, "Please go back

00:21:23.815 --> 00:21:25.417 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and get us help

00:21:25.484 --> 00:21:26.818 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
so we can stay here

00:21:26.885 --> 00:21:28.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and not be empty-handed.

00:21:28.787 --> 00:21:30.022 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
Please do that!"

00:21:30.088 --> 00:21:31.323 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
We came back.

00:21:31.390 --> 00:21:32.424 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
We did not know

00:21:32.491 --> 00:21:33.659 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
if anybody would help.

00:21:33.725 --> 00:21:35.193 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You have amazed us.

00:21:35.260 --> 00:21:36.728 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
You have put God's arms

00:21:36.795 --> 00:21:38.497 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
around more overlooked people

00:21:38.563 --> 00:21:39.731 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
and abused people

00:21:39.798 --> 00:21:40.966 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and trafficked people

00:21:41.033 --> 00:21:42.200 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and damaged people than

00:21:42.267 --> 00:21:43.869 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
you could ever imagine.

00:21:43.935 --> 00:21:45.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
Thank you!

00:21:45.337 --> 00:21:47.072 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Thank you in their behalf.

00:21:47.139 --> 00:21:48.407 align:start line:58% position:10% size:73%
So we're asking you right now

00:21:48.473 --> 00:21:49.508 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
in what we call

00:21:49.574 --> 00:21:51.076 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
Mission: Rescue Life.

00:21:51.143 --> 00:21:54.046 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
Help us rescue thousands

00:21:54.112 --> 00:21:56.014 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
and thousands of children

00:21:56.081 --> 00:21:57.182 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
and those who are

00:21:57.249 --> 00:21:58.383 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
being trafficked.

00:21:58.450 --> 00:22:00.352 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
It costs an average of $128

00:22:00.686 --> 00:22:02.754 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
to rescue -- that's reach,

00:22:02.821 --> 00:22:04.456 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
rescue, and restore

00:22:04.523 --> 00:22:05.691 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
to begin that process.

00:22:05.757 --> 00:22:07.159 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
That's what it costs.

00:22:07.225 --> 00:22:09.161 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
Would you rescue one?

00:22:09.227 --> 00:22:10.796 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
Would you give $1,280

00:22:10.862 --> 00:22:12.564 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
and rescue ten?

00:22:12.631 --> 00:22:13.965 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
I always ask people, Betty,

00:22:14.032 --> 00:22:15.100 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
to think bigger than

00:22:15.167 --> 00:22:16.301 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
you normally do.

00:22:16.368 --> 00:22:17.335 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
Think what I could do

00:22:17.402 --> 00:22:18.470 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
more than I could do.

00:22:18.537 --> 00:22:20.272 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
God will enable you to do it.

00:22:20.338 --> 00:22:21.940 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
So make the very best gift

00:22:22.007 --> 00:22:23.375 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
or gifts you can.

00:22:23.442 --> 00:22:25.343 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
Please! We have some gifts

00:22:25.410 --> 00:22:26.745 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
to send you that I promise you

00:22:26.812 --> 00:22:28.346 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
will really bless you.

00:22:28.413 --> 00:22:29.481 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
We got the most beautiful

00:22:29.548 --> 00:22:31.650 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
throw I have ever seen.

00:22:31.717 --> 00:22:32.918 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
And we have great books

00:22:32.984 --> 00:22:34.519 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
to inspire you.

00:22:34.586 --> 00:22:36.021 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
You can get, if you would

00:22:36.088 --> 00:22:37.389 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
like to have it, Nicole's

00:22:37.456 --> 00:22:40.659 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
book, <i>It's Never Wrong</i>

00:22:40.726 --> 00:22:42.527 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
<i>to Do the Right Thing</i>.

00:22:42.594 --> 00:22:43.762 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
I want to promise you

00:22:43.829 --> 00:22:45.964 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
right now it's the right thing

00:22:46.031 --> 00:22:47.766 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
to rescue the perishing,

00:22:47.833 --> 00:22:49.768 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
to care for those

00:22:49.835 --> 00:22:51.169 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
who are in prison,

00:22:51.236 --> 00:22:52.738 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
who are held captive.

00:22:52.804 --> 00:22:54.773 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
You can set them free.

00:22:54.840 --> 00:22:56.608 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
Please, get your bank card,

00:22:56.675 --> 00:22:57.976 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
use it like a check.

00:22:58.043 --> 00:22:59.144 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
Write a check, make it

00:22:59.211 --> 00:23:00.378 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
to LIFE because that's what

00:23:00.445 --> 00:23:01.546 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
you're giving.

00:23:01.613 --> 00:23:04.216 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
I want you right now

00:23:04.282 --> 00:23:05.417 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
to simply do what

00:23:05.484 --> 00:23:07.085 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
God's led you to do. Please!

00:23:07.152 --> 00:23:09.054 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
Father, help each person

00:23:09.121 --> 00:23:10.989 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
watching to reach out

00:23:11.056 --> 00:23:12.257 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
and touch someone

It's the "Lion of Judah,"

00:26:16.942 --> 00:26:18.576 align:start line:58% position:10% size:73%
but it's the cross that gives
