We've got similar stories. 00:01:57.651 --> 00:01:58.986 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% James: We really do. 00:01:58.986 --> 00:02:01.121 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% Tell us what happened in your childhood that was a pretty 00:02:01.121 --> 00:02:02.723 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% big blow. 00:02:02.723 --> 00:02:04.057 align:start line:63% position:47% size:53% Bill: Well, you know, I grew up very poor. 00:02:04.057 --> 00:02:08.562 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% My dad was the oldest of eight, lived in a three-room log cabin 00:02:08.562 --> 00:02:11.264 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% in the hills of the Missouri Ozarks. 00:02:11.264 --> 00:02:15.502 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% So if you do the math, that's a lot of kids for a three-room 00:02:15.502 --> 00:02:16.837 align:start line:69% position:50% size:25% log cabin. 00:02:16.837 --> 00:02:18.205 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% Still standing. 00:02:18.205 --> 00:02:21.174 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% But like a lot of people in that day, his big job was, how do I 00:02:21.174 --> 00:02:23.377 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% get out of that kind of lifestyle? 00:02:23.377 --> 00:02:28.181 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% So he joined the service, went overseas to Japan, met my mom 00:02:28.181 --> 00:02:32.552 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% there post-Korean War, and brought her back and had 00:02:32.552 --> 00:02:33.887 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% six kids. 00:02:33.887 --> 00:02:36.723 align:start line:63% position:47% size:53% But it was a very dysfunctional family. 00:02:36.723 --> 00:02:40.827 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% He was an alcoholic, heavy smoker, and we were a welfare 00:02:40.827 --> 00:02:42.262 align:start line:69% position:50% size:45% family, very poor. 00:02:42.262 --> 00:02:44.698 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% He was just a blue-collar laborer. 00:02:44.698 --> 00:02:50.037 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% And then in the middle of all that kind of mess he got cancer. 00:02:50.037 --> 00:02:55.742 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% He was a heavy smoker, so he had emphysema and lung cancer, and 00:02:55.742 --> 00:02:58.745 align:start line:63% position:50% size:61% ultimately he died when I was 12 years old. 00:02:58.745 --> 00:03:01.982 align:start line:63% position:47% size:58% So, left my mom with six kids to raise. 00:03:01.982 --> 00:03:06.853 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% She'd never worked outside the home and couldn't hardly speak 00:03:06.853 --> 00:03:09.723 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% English, didn't even have a driver's license, so here she 00:03:09.723 --> 00:03:12.025 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% was with six kids to raise. 00:03:12.025 --> 00:03:16.029 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% And I was fifth out of six, so that was the beginning of our 00:03:16.029 --> 00:03:17.364 align:start line:69% position:50% size:31% family life. 00:03:17.364 --> 00:03:19.699 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% But it's actually really, as you appreciate, James, that's the 00:03:19.699 --> 00:03:21.868 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% beginning oftentimes of your ministry. 00:03:21.868 --> 00:03:23.837 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% James: So what do you call the ministry now? 00:03:23.837 --> 00:03:26.473 align:start line:63% position:50% size:61% Bill: So the ministry is called Legacy Stone. 00:03:26.473 --> 00:03:30.110 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% So if you take that whole idea, is that God gives us stones of 00:03:30.110 --> 00:03:33.180 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% remembrance, and that's all throughout Scripture, you'd 00:03:33.180 --> 00:03:37.717 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% build an altar every time something significant would 00:03:37.717 --> 00:03:40.020 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% happen, and that's this idea of legacy. 00:03:40.020 --> 00:03:44.491 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% And so we really want to teach families this idea of how you 00:03:44.491 --> 00:03:48.728 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% set in motion a powerful legacy, just like you two have done. 00:03:48.728 --> 00:03:52.165 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% It's that idea that someday in heaven, you're gonna gather 00:03:52.165 --> 00:03:56.103 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% around with your family, your friends, and it's gonna be a 00:03:56.103 --> 00:03:57.437 align:start line:69% position:50% size:45% great celebration. 00:03:57.437 --> 00:03:59.539 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% And that's what we wanna do for families. 00:03:59.539 --> 00:04:01.775 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% James: We're gonna meet a lot of people who could wave and say, 00:04:01.775 --> 00:04:05.212 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% "We're here because of you coming and telling us 00:04:05.212 --> 00:04:06.847 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% about Jesus." 00:04:06.847 --> 00:04:10.917 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% And I just, I know I can look over a host of people who came 00:04:10.917 --> 00:04:15.021 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% to Christ because God changed this fatherless boy. 00:04:15.021 --> 00:04:18.291 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% My mother was raped when she was 40, didn't have a father. 00:04:18.291 --> 00:04:21.061 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% Most of you know that, I don't need to repeat it. 00:04:21.061 --> 00:04:25.232 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% But I'm telling you, it's-- I just glanced down here 00:04:25.232 --> 00:04:26.566 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% at a book that we're offering. 00:04:26.566 --> 00:04:30.103 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% It's called, it's "A Life of Compassion" and it's filled with 00:04:30.103 --> 00:04:32.906 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% pictures on the mission field, but here we are. 00:04:32.906 --> 00:04:37.711 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% And I just love that picture, because that is compassion. 00:04:37.711 --> 00:04:39.246 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% We went all over the world. 00:04:39.246 --> 00:04:43.350 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% We went into 40 Third World countries and started saving 00:04:43.350 --> 00:04:48.121 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% lives because of you, because we showed the need and we showed 00:04:48.121 --> 00:04:51.324 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% that there's a way to meet it, and there are people that are 00:04:51.324 --> 00:04:55.896 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% sent by God and placed there to handle it, and you made 00:04:55.896 --> 00:04:57.230 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% the difference. 00:04:57.230 --> 00:05:00.634 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% Okay, you and I have been captured by the thought of 00:05:00.634 --> 00:05:04.504 align:start line:69% position:44% size:78% leaving legacy, impact, behind. 00:05:04.504 --> 00:05:09.042 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% So tell us how you help people understand the importance of 00:05:09.042 --> 00:05:12.245 align:start line:63% position:50% size:45% legacy life and creating a legacy. 00:05:12.245 --> 00:05:15.749 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Bill: Well, the first thing that we do is we talk about this 00:05:15.749 --> 00:05:20.287 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% legacy idea and say again, it is, what are you putting in 00:05:20.287 --> 00:05:23.023 align:start line:63% position:50% size:45% place that's gonna last for eternity? 00:05:23.023 --> 00:05:26.726 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% But as our ministry we have a small group curriculum that any 00:05:26.726 --> 00:05:28.895 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% family can complete. 00:05:28.895 --> 00:05:30.864 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% They can go through it as a church, they can go through it 00:05:30.864 --> 00:05:35.468 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% with their own family, but the key, for a family to be able to 00:05:35.468 --> 00:05:38.205 align:start line:69% position:48% size:43% last a long time. 00:05:38.205 --> 00:05:40.006 align:start line:69% position:45% size:73% Our God's a generational God. 00:05:40.006 --> 00:05:43.610 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% He thinks and he plans in terms of generations. 00:05:43.610 --> 00:05:45.045 align:start line:69% position:50% size:56% God told Abraham what? 00:05:45.045 --> 00:05:48.281 align:start line:63% position:47% size:53% That his family would go down into Egypt 00:05:48.281 --> 00:05:50.584 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% and be there for 400 years. 00:05:50.584 --> 00:05:54.254 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% I mean, how many times does God speak to us about hundreds of 00:05:54.254 --> 00:05:55.589 align:start line:69% position:47% size:53% years for our family? 00:05:55.589 --> 00:05:58.091 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% But that's how God wants us to think and plan. 00:05:58.091 --> 00:06:01.328 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% But the key for families to have that kind of generational 00:06:01.328 --> 00:06:05.065 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% impact, the Scriptures are very clear, that you've got to have a 00:06:05.065 --> 00:06:10.870 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% clear vision, mission, and values defined for your family. 00:06:10.870 --> 00:06:13.940 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% James: Well, one of the families you helped to gain legacy was 00:06:13.940 --> 00:06:19.446 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% the Hobby Lobby family, David Green, because you impacted his 00:06:19.446 --> 00:06:23.350 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% personal family, and then the two of you began to grow 00:06:23.350 --> 00:06:26.987 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% together and you inspired him. 00:06:26.987 --> 00:06:31.291 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Would you say that Hobby Lobby and the family has left an 00:06:31.291 --> 00:06:32.626 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% amazing legacy? 00:06:32.626 --> 00:06:34.261 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% Bill: Yeah, it's an incredible story. 00:06:34.261 --> 00:06:38.064 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And just, again, like you all, they have a very ordinary story 00:06:38.064 --> 00:06:41.635 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% at the beginning because his mom and dad were preachers, pastors 00:06:41.635 --> 00:06:43.536 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% of very small churches. 00:06:43.536 --> 00:06:46.906 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% Nobody would have ever had them on a TV show. 00:06:46.906 --> 00:06:48.341 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% They never wrote any books. 00:06:48.341 --> 00:06:50.744 align:start line:69% position:45% size:73% They never filled any arenas. 00:06:50.744 --> 00:06:56.116 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% A very humble ministry, and yet they gave birth to six kids, one 00:06:56.116 --> 00:06:59.986 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% of those being their son David, who went on to found Hobby 00:06:59.986 --> 00:07:04.924 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% Lobby, now more than 1,000 stores, 50,000 employees, 00:07:04.924 --> 00:07:06.393 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% $8 billion in sales. 00:07:06.393 --> 00:07:09.729 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% But when I came to the family, they were already doing 00:07:09.729 --> 00:07:11.097 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% great things. 00:07:11.097 --> 00:07:12.432 align:start line:69% position:50% size:61% They were very generous. 00:07:12.432 --> 00:07:16.636 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% But they said, "Look, we've got kids who are entering--grandkids 00:07:16.636 --> 00:07:19.939 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% who are entering the business and we need to do better because 00:07:19.939 --> 00:07:23.009 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% we want to make sure that our family stays together." 00:07:23.009 --> 00:07:25.712 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And so one of the things that I told them, I said, "You guys 00:07:25.712 --> 00:07:28.815 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% have good legal plans, but you don't have much of a 00:07:28.815 --> 00:07:30.350 align:start line:69% position:50% size:31% legacy plan. 00:07:30.350 --> 00:07:34.487 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% And so you guys need to actually define, write down on paper, 00:07:34.487 --> 00:07:35.955 align:start line:69% position:50% size:70% your vision for the family." 00:07:35.955 --> 00:07:39.492 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% So their vision is going on the adventure of impacting the world 00:07:39.492 --> 00:07:40.827 align:start line:69% position:48% size:28% for Christ. 00:07:40.827 --> 00:07:42.929 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% James: Define legacy from your point of view and the way you 00:07:42.929 --> 00:07:44.397 align:start line:69% position:44% size:78% hope people will understand it. 00:07:44.397 --> 00:07:48.535 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% Bill: So we tell people that legacy is really this idea of 00:07:48.535 --> 00:07:50.370 align:start line:69% position:44% size:78% what are you putting in motion. 00:07:50.370 --> 00:07:53.773 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% It is less about what you leave behind and it's what you're 00:07:53.773 --> 00:07:55.175 align:start line:69% position:50% size:45% putting in motion. 00:07:55.175 --> 00:07:58.278 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% And that definition, when you say "What are we putting in 00:07:58.278 --> 00:08:02.115 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% motion?" is what are the values that we want our family to grab 00:08:02.115 --> 00:08:06.286 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% a hold of and then teach from generation to generation. 00:08:06.286 --> 00:08:08.221 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% It's the principle of what you guys have tried to do with 00:08:08.221 --> 00:08:09.589 align:start line:69% position:50% size:25% your kids. 00:08:09.589 --> 00:08:11.057 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% Deuteronomy 6, what are you supposed to do? 00:08:11.057 --> 00:08:14.260 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% You're supposed to talk about these things that are in your 00:08:14.260 --> 00:08:17.230 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% heart, and then talk about them when you get up, when you lay 00:08:17.230 --> 00:08:20.433 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% down, when you're walking by the way, which is pretty much all 00:08:20.433 --> 00:08:21.768 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% the time. 00:08:21.768 --> 00:08:25.538 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% So our dream and our hope is that every family that is in the 00:08:25.538 --> 00:08:29.109 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% church across the world, if they would simply define that, if all 00:08:29.109 --> 00:08:31.845 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% they did was define their values. 00:08:31.845 --> 00:08:37.751 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% The Green family values, it's God, people, and others. 00:08:37.751 --> 00:08:41.554 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Our family values, God's Word, generosity, adventure, 00:08:41.554 --> 00:08:43.223 align:start line:69% position:48% size:48% story, restoration. 00:08:43.223 --> 00:08:46.659 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Those are guiding values that we can sit down now with our 00:08:46.659 --> 00:08:50.463 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% grandchildren and talk about those values as a family. 00:08:50.463 --> 00:08:53.133 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% Betty: Well, I think it's beautiful, because I hear of 00:08:53.133 --> 00:08:56.436 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% your testimony, and I know James's testimony and where you 00:08:56.436 --> 00:08:59.506 align:start line:69% position:45% size:73% came from, and most unlikely. 00:08:59.506 --> 00:09:03.309 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% But God says all things are possible, and I think the legacy 00:09:03.309 --> 00:09:07.480 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% you're talking about is more, it's not--everyone can have it 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:08.815 align:start line:69% position:50% size:35% and obtain it. 00:09:08.815 --> 00:09:14.020 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% It's not about the finances, it's about life, and where your 00:09:14.020 --> 00:09:18.558 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% importance is in life as far as your relationship with God, how 00:09:18.558 --> 00:09:22.462 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% you teach your children, how you help them to learn the 00:09:22.462 --> 00:09:24.597 align:start line:69% position:50% size:81% foundations of God's principles. 00:09:24.597 --> 00:09:25.932 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% Isn't that more what you're talking about? 00:09:25.932 --> 00:09:27.967 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Bill: That's it, I mean, one of the things that we know about 00:09:27.967 --> 00:09:32.372 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% Jewish culture is that from zero to five, 00:09:32.372 --> 00:09:37.110 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% from birth to five years of age, they did two things. 00:09:37.110 --> 00:09:39.279 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% They taught the Shema, Hear O Israel. 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.214 align:start line:69% position:47% size:53% So look up, children. 00:09:41.214 --> 00:09:44.184 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And then the second thing they did is they taught stories, the 00:09:44.184 --> 00:09:48.655 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% stories of the Bible, because if you get that kind of foundation, 00:09:48.655 --> 00:09:53.126 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% then you can then teach your children and carry it on from 00:09:53.126 --> 00:09:54.494 align:start line:69% position:47% size:63% generation to generation. 00:09:54.494 --> 00:09:57.897 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% Psalm 78 verses 5 through 7 talks about that idea. 00:09:57.897 --> 00:10:02.335 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% It says that God gives us a testimony, which we all have. 00:10:02.335 --> 00:10:05.905 align:start line:63% position:47% size:58% He gives us law, or which is a way of life, 00:10:05.905 --> 00:10:07.407 align:start line:69% position:50% size:65% but then what does he say? 00:10:07.407 --> 00:10:10.944 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% That our fathers should teach their children who would 00:10:10.944 --> 00:10:14.948 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% teach their children, the children yet unborn, and even 00:10:14.948 --> 00:10:19.319 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% the children beyond that, five generations, so that they would 00:10:19.319 --> 00:10:20.653 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% put their trust in God. 00:10:20.653 --> 00:10:22.021 align:start line:69% position:50% size:41% That's Psalm 78. 00:10:22.021 --> 00:10:23.490 align:start line:63% position:50% size:61% Betty: So you could start this early in your 00:10:23.490 --> 00:10:24.824 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% family relationship. 00:10:24.824 --> 00:10:27.594 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% It's not just for the older people that start thinking about 00:10:27.594 --> 00:10:30.430 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% what they're leaving behind and what they've left and taught 00:10:30.430 --> 00:10:32.665 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% their families and everything, but it starts, it can start 00:10:32.665 --> 00:10:34.033 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% early, right? 00:10:34.033 --> 00:10:36.336 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% Bill: Yeah, absolutely, and that's, again, our hope. 00:10:36.336 --> 00:10:39.439 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% The best families are actually those ones that we get even 00:10:39.439 --> 00:10:40.807 align:start line:69% position:50% size:56% before they have kids. 00:10:40.807 --> 00:10:43.810 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% So what we say, encourage families to do is write this 00:10:43.810 --> 00:10:47.914 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% down, put it on the door frames of your home, literally, Betty, 00:10:47.914 --> 00:10:50.016 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% and then when you sit down at night, say, "Here's the five 00:10:50.016 --> 00:10:51.351 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% family values." 00:10:51.351 --> 00:10:53.419 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% And so that's what we do with our grandkids. 00:10:53.419 --> 00:10:57.991 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% James: You know, you've brought some of the blueprints and so 00:10:57.991 --> 00:10:59.325 align:start line:69% position:47% size:53% forth that you offer. 00:10:59.325 --> 00:11:02.228 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% Just for instance, that first one has a reference about 00:11:02.228 --> 00:11:03.963 align:start line:69% position:50% size:41% family conflict. 00:11:03.963 --> 00:11:07.100 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% There seems to be a lot of that, and a lot of conflict in the 00:11:07.100 --> 00:11:09.836 align:start line:63% position:47% size:53% nation, but it starts with the family. 00:11:09.836 --> 00:11:13.473 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% So tell us what it is you're offering, because you can 00:11:13.473 --> 00:11:14.807 align:start line:69% position:50% size:25% go online. 00:11:14.807 --> 00:11:18.778 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% If people wanna contact you, wanna learn from you, want to 00:11:18.778 --> 00:11:21.681 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% get material from you, where would they go online to get it? 00:11:21.681 --> 00:11:25.084 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Bill: Yeah, they just go to our website, legacystone.com. 00:11:25.084 --> 00:11:27.320 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% That's the website, legacystone.com. 00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:28.922 align:start line:63% position:47% size:63% But these are small group materials. 00:11:28.922 --> 00:11:32.959 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Some of this is available, too, as an on-demand curriculum. 00:11:32.959 --> 00:11:37.564 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% This is the base curriculum here, the 7 Generation Family, 00:11:37.564 --> 00:11:38.932 align:start line:69% position:45% size:73% but they can go through this. 00:11:38.932 --> 00:11:41.100 align:start line:63% position:50% size:45% It's a seven-week small group study. 00:11:41.100 --> 00:11:43.503 align:start line:63% position:47% size:53% Now, some people go through it faster. 00:11:43.503 --> 00:11:46.539 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% But again, this is our hope is that every family would go 00:11:46.539 --> 00:11:48.741 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% through this particular study. 00:11:48.741 --> 00:11:52.645 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% It goes through and it really sets up the worldview for a 00:11:52.645 --> 00:11:57.684 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% family which is that God intends for your family to make an 00:11:57.684 --> 00:11:59.452 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% impact for generations. 00:11:59.452 --> 00:12:02.121 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% But then of course it also goes through family vision 00:12:02.121 --> 00:12:03.456 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% mission values. 00:12:03.456 --> 00:12:08.027 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% So families will walk out of this study with a clear vision, 00:12:08.027 --> 00:12:11.264 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% mission and value statement, and that's what they can put on the 00:12:11.264 --> 00:12:13.032 align:start line:69% position:48% size:48% wall of their home. 00:12:13.032 --> 00:12:15.668 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% James: Well, I want you to get the material. 00:12:15.668 --> 00:12:20.373 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% But to leave a legacy, too, you show people that we can leave 00:12:20.373 --> 00:12:24.344 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% out of all of the wealth that God has entrusted to us that we 00:12:24.344 --> 00:12:28.381 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% have earned or grown during our lifetime, whether it was one 00:12:28.381 --> 00:12:31.784 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% grown with a lot of wisdom, or a lot of amazing supernatural 00:12:31.784 --> 00:12:34.954 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% blessing, or just unexpected blessing. 00:12:34.954 --> 00:12:36.289 align:start line:69% position:48% size:48% The money is there. 00:12:36.289 --> 00:12:41.060 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Right now, the seniors of the United States of America, let's 00:12:41.060 --> 00:12:45.398 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% say people 50 and over, maybe 60 or 70 and over, and certainly 00:12:45.398 --> 00:12:49.602 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% those even in the 70s and 80s where Betty and I are in the 80s 00:12:49.602 --> 00:12:54.374 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% now, but these people have a tremendous amount of money that 00:12:54.374 --> 00:12:59.045 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% could be left in some kind of a legacy and impact the whole 00:12:59.045 --> 00:13:02.215 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% world with the gospel of the kingdom. 00:13:02.215 --> 00:13:03.583 align:start line:69% position:50% size:41% Is that correct? 00:13:03.583 --> 00:13:05.852 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Bill: Yeah, we're living in one of the greatest times in the 00:13:05.852 --> 00:13:07.186 align:start line:69% position:47% size:53% history of the world. 00:13:07.186 --> 00:13:11.824 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% There's--some people anticipate that it's as much as $100 00:13:11.824 --> 00:13:14.861 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% trillion that's going to change hands over about the next 30, 00:13:14.861 --> 00:13:16.663 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% 40 years. 00:13:16.663 --> 00:13:17.997 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% And we're seeing it. 00:13:17.997 --> 00:13:23.569 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% If you translate that though, if 1%, just call it $60 trillion, 00:13:23.569 --> 00:13:29.075 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% dumb it down, make it smaller, that's $600 billion, if 1% of 00:13:29.075 --> 00:13:31.611 align:start line:69% position:50% size:56% $60 trillion is given. 00:13:31.611 --> 00:13:33.846 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% So it's an incredible time. 00:13:33.846 --> 00:13:35.181 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% We were talking about this. 00:13:35.181 --> 00:13:37.283 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% James: This is in the hands of the older people, the seniors 00:13:37.283 --> 00:13:39.852 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% really, who control it. 00:13:39.852 --> 00:13:41.554 align:start line:69% position:50% size:65% And am I right about this? 00:13:41.554 --> 00:13:47.293 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% If we're captured by his vision, his vision is that his family 00:13:47.293 --> 00:13:51.431 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% would do his will on earth as it is in heaven. 00:13:51.431 --> 00:13:53.966 align:start line:63% position:47% size:58% That's not just wishful thinking, that's an 00:13:53.966 --> 00:13:55.601 align:start line:69% position:50% size:35% actual prayer. 00:13:55.601 --> 00:14:00.373 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% I have been captured by the vision of God. 00:14:00.373 --> 00:14:01.774 align:start line:69% position:50% size:65% I've been captured by him. 00:14:01.774 --> 00:14:03.576 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% He's captured my heart. 00:14:03.576 --> 00:14:08.247 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% I wanna see his will done on his earth and the gospel of his 00:14:08.247 --> 00:14:13.086 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% kingdom in us proclaimed to the ends of the earth, because he 00:14:13.086 --> 00:14:16.322 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% said, "The gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all nations, 00:14:16.322 --> 00:14:17.690 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% then I come." 00:14:17.690 --> 00:14:19.826 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% So why in the world can't we get on with that? 00:14:19.826 --> 00:14:23.196 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% And I hear you talking about the fact that we can live this 00:14:23.196 --> 00:14:27.533 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% legacy, and we can leave in place what God's entrusted our 00:14:27.533 --> 00:14:33.206 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% watch care, to have a kingdom impact on every nation on earth. 00:14:33.206 --> 00:14:34.874 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% Do you bear witness with that? 00:14:34.874 --> 00:14:37.744 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Bill: One of the things that we say to those families that are 00:14:37.744 --> 00:14:43.316 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% saying, "Boy, how can I set in place a legacy that lasts for 00:14:43.316 --> 00:14:44.784 align:start line:69% position:48% size:43% all of eternity?" 00:14:44.784 --> 00:14:48.254 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Well, we know that the families that are most united are the 00:14:48.254 --> 00:14:49.922 align:start line:69% position:50% size:70% families that give together. 00:14:49.922 --> 00:14:51.924 align:start line:69% position:50% size:61% It's no surprise, is it? 00:14:51.924 --> 00:14:55.161 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% And so that's one of the statements or the encouragements 00:14:55.161 --> 00:14:58.164 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% that we have for families is to say, "Let's do some 00:14:58.164 --> 00:14:59.866 align:start line:69% position:48% size:43% giving together." 00:14:59.866 --> 00:15:02.602 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Sometimes we'll say to families that, if they're planning their 00:15:02.602 --> 00:15:05.671 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% estate, for instance, and if they're going to leave money to 00:15:05.671 --> 00:15:09.675 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% their three kids, have a fourth kid, and have that fourth kid 00:15:09.675 --> 00:15:11.010 align:start line:69% position:50% size:31% be ministry. 00:15:11.010 --> 00:15:14.714 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Have it be ministries like "Life Today" as a for instance. 00:15:14.714 --> 00:15:17.450 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% That's the way that you get your family together. 00:15:17.450 --> 00:15:22.588 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% In this first study, by the way, we talk about that the easiest 00:15:22.588 --> 00:15:24.791 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% conversation to have, certainly there would be families who 00:15:24.791 --> 00:15:27.860 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% would be listening to this broadcast today and they'd be 00:15:27.860 --> 00:15:31.697 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% saying, "Man, I've got tension and strife inside of my family," 00:15:31.697 --> 00:15:34.367 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% which by the way, that's our second study, which is 00:15:34.367 --> 00:15:35.802 align:start line:69% position:50% size:41% family conflict. 00:15:35.802 --> 00:15:38.805 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% It's the thing that breaks people apart. 00:15:38.805 --> 00:15:42.642 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% But the easiest conversation to have for a family is 00:15:42.642 --> 00:15:44.010 align:start line:69% position:50% size:35% family giving. 00:15:44.010 --> 00:15:47.280 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% So if you want to call a family meeting, bring the family 00:15:47.280 --> 00:15:50.983 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% together and say, "Hey, we're gonna do some giving together 00:15:50.983 --> 00:15:52.685 align:start line:69% position:48% size:48% today as a family." 00:15:52.685 --> 00:15:57.023 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% James: You know, Bill, I feel like God has called me really to 00:15:57.023 --> 00:16:02.895 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% seek to inspire the church to be captured by the Father's vision. 00:16:02.895 --> 00:16:05.798 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% He didn't leave us here to get us out of here. 00:16:05.798 --> 00:16:09.969 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% He left us here to fulfill his kingdom purpose on earth. 00:16:09.969 --> 00:16:12.371 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% You know, when the disciples were talking to him as he's 00:16:12.371 --> 00:16:16.342 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% about to ascend, they brought up, "Now are you gonna restore 00:16:16.342 --> 00:16:17.710 align:start line:69% position:47% size:58% the kingdom to Israel?" 00:16:17.710 --> 00:16:19.512 align:start line:63% position:47% size:58% They were still talking about this kingdom. 00:16:19.512 --> 00:16:21.881 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% He said, "Why are you talking about something only one 00:16:21.881 --> 00:16:23.216 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% person knows? 00:16:23.216 --> 00:16:25.918 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Now I want you to do what I've left you here to do. 00:16:25.918 --> 00:16:29.722 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% But tarry in Jerusalem until you're endued with power 00:16:29.722 --> 00:16:31.457 align:start line:69% position:50% size:35% from on high." 00:16:31.457 --> 00:16:33.092 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% They tarried. 00:16:33.092 --> 00:16:36.229 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% The power of God came on them, and I really believe this 00:16:36.229 --> 00:16:37.597 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% is right. 00:16:37.597 --> 00:16:41.601 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Those who didn't understand kingdom were carried out of that 00:16:41.601 --> 00:16:46.505 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% upper room by the power of the resurrection kingdom living in 00:16:46.505 --> 00:16:50.176 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% them and was expressed through them throughout the 28 chapters 00:16:50.176 --> 00:16:51.510 align:start line:69% position:50% size:21% of Acts. 00:16:51.510 --> 00:16:54.380 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% And they made an impact on the entire world. 00:16:54.380 --> 00:16:58.651 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% That's what we're here to do as the church of the Lord Jesus, as 00:16:58.651 --> 00:17:00.720 align:start line:63% position:48% size:43% the family of the perfect Father. 00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:05.691 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% And that group can leave a legacy that will impact the 00:17:05.691 --> 00:17:10.229 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% world, and direct the resources and the financial power that's 00:17:10.229 --> 00:17:14.867 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% been entrusted to us, to do the kingdom will of God all over 00:17:14.867 --> 00:17:16.235 align:start line:69% position:50% size:25% the world. 00:17:16.235 --> 00:17:17.637 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% That's what I'm excited about. 00:17:17.637 --> 00:17:19.305 align:start line:69% position:50% size:61% I believe it can happen. 00:17:19.305 --> 00:17:22.575 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% I frankly think that's what you've been gifted to help do. 00:17:22.575 --> 00:17:24.677 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% Bill: We're living in a time where it is now 00:17:24.677 --> 00:17:26.879 align:start line:69% position:50% size:65% Great Commission-possible. 00:17:26.879 --> 00:17:29.615 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% It used to be we could never imagine a time where the Great 00:17:29.615 --> 00:17:31.817 align:start line:69% position:50% size:65% Commission could get done. 00:17:31.817 --> 00:17:33.219 align:start line:69% position:48% size:43% But it can today. 00:17:33.219 --> 00:17:36.956 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And it'll ultimately be through families inside the church who 00:17:36.956 --> 00:17:39.325 align:start line:69% position:50% size:75% say, "We wanna get that done." 00:17:39.325 --> 00:17:42.161 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% It's an incredible time for us in the history of the world. 00:17:42.161 --> 00:17:47.300 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% James: It really is, and I want you to go online, get the 00:17:47.300 --> 00:17:52.405 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% material that Bill is offering, stay in touch with us, because 00:17:52.405 --> 00:17:59.245 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% we want to help inspire you to have a kingdom legacy impact, 00:17:59.245 --> 00:18:03.649 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% where God's family begins to look like him and makes a 00:18:03.649 --> 00:18:06.619 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% kingdom impact on the whole world. 00:18:06.619 --> 00:18:11.424 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% I wanna ask you right now to look in and see a tremendous 00:18:11.424 --> 00:18:16.162 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% need, where kingdom impact really needs to be made and has 00:18:16.162 --> 00:18:19.899 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% been being made for many years now. 00:18:19.899 --> 00:18:23.602 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And that's giving people who do not have clean water, water 00:18:23.602 --> 00:18:25.071 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% for life. 00:18:25.071 --> 00:18:31.444 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% I want you to watch this very focused, very carefully, very 00:18:31.444 --> 00:18:34.347 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% prayerfully, please. 00:18:34.347 --> 00:18:37.883 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% This is legacy. 00:18:37.883 --> 00:18:41.120 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% announcer: When water like this is your only choice, you 00:18:41.120 --> 00:18:42.455 align:start line:69% position:48% size:23% drink it. 00:18:42.455 --> 00:18:45.958 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Otherwise, in three to five days without water, you can die due 00:18:45.958 --> 00:18:48.394 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% to dehydration. 00:18:48.394 --> 00:18:52.798 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Delfina, now 58 years of age, has fought this battle her whole 00:18:52.798 --> 00:18:56.836 align:start line:63% position:46% size:68% life, needing to give her children water to live, but 00:18:56.836 --> 00:19:00.506 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% having no other choice but to collect it from unsafe sources 00:19:00.506 --> 00:19:02.875 align:start line:69% position:50% size:25% like this. 00:19:02.875 --> 00:19:07.646 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% The result, most of her children died from fever, vomiting, and 00:19:07.646 --> 00:19:11.217 align:start line:63% position:50% size:56% diarrhea brought on by waterborne diseases. 00:19:11.217 --> 00:19:14.820 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Now as a grandmother, her life of sorrow continues with the 00:19:14.820 --> 00:19:17.890 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% recent death of her granddaughter. 00:19:17.890 --> 00:19:22.528 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Isak Pretorius: I asked her how it feels when she thinks of the 00:19:22.528 --> 00:19:29.702 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% children that she's lost, and she just weeps as she remembers 00:19:29.702 --> 00:19:35.374 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% and then shares the pain and the struggle of seeing her children 00:19:35.374 --> 00:19:38.544 align:start line:63% position:50% size:50% go through that, of losing her children. 00:19:38.544 --> 00:19:41.814 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% The pain and the struggle that she's experienced as a mother, 00:19:41.814 --> 00:19:45.718 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% not being able to give her children clean water, water that 00:19:45.718 --> 00:19:47.386 align:start line:69% position:48% size:43% doesn't kill you. 00:19:47.386 --> 00:19:53.025 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Yet when asked what she would say to those who could make it 00:19:53.025 --> 00:19:57.663 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% possible, and her response was that she would plead with us to 00:19:57.663 --> 00:20:01.467 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% be able to do that, but she said, "Not just for me, not just 00:20:01.467 --> 00:20:05.271 align:start line:63% position:50% size:70% for my children, for all the mothers here. 00:20:05.271 --> 00:20:08.207 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% For all the children, for our whole community, because they're 00:20:08.207 --> 00:20:10.943 align:start line:69% position:50% size:61% all suffering the same." 00:20:10.943 --> 00:20:15.414 align:start line:63% position:50% size:65% Like me, you can't imagine losing just one of your 00:20:15.414 --> 00:20:18.818 align:start line:63% position:48% size:48% children, let alone multiple children. 00:20:18.818 --> 00:20:21.887 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% I can't imagine the heartbreak and the anguish of 00:20:21.887 --> 00:20:24.924 align:start line:69% position:50% size:45% experiencing that. 00:20:24.924 --> 00:20:28.661 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% Well, I'm asking you from that heart to join hearts with us and 00:20:28.661 --> 00:20:32.565 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% partner with us to make sure that we can bring fresh, clean, 00:20:32.565 --> 00:20:38.537 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% life-giving water, not the water of death, but the water of life, 00:20:38.537 --> 00:20:44.009 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% to this mother, to her children and grandchildren, to the other 00:20:44.009 --> 00:20:47.346 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% mothers in this community that she literally speaks on 00:20:47.346 --> 00:20:48.714 align:start line:69% position:48% size:33% their behalf. 00:20:48.714 --> 00:20:52.384 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% To the other precious children, the ones who are still here, but 00:20:52.384 --> 00:20:55.821 align:start line:69% position:50% size:50% are still suffering. 00:20:55.821 --> 00:21:01.427 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% James: I pray to God that you are moved by what you just saw. 00:21:01.427 --> 00:21:05.664 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% And we have given water to millions and millions of people 00:21:05.664 --> 00:21:07.032 align:start line:69% position:48% size:48% all over the world. 00:21:07.032 --> 00:21:08.701 align:start line:63% position:45% size:73% When I say "we," Betty, I'm talking about the people that 00:21:08.701 --> 00:21:11.904 align:start line:63% position:50% size:61% watch us, that you just saw the tremendous need. 00:21:11.904 --> 00:21:14.073 align:start line:69% position:46% size:68% What goes on in your heart? 00:21:14.073 --> 00:21:17.510 align:start line:63% position:44% size:78% Because you've been there so much and you've seen the crisis 00:21:17.510 --> 00:21:21.480 align:start line:63% position:50% size:81% of unclean water, the death that pours all over the whole African 00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:23.749 align:start line:69% position:48% size:38% poverty nation. 00:21:23.749 --> 00:21:25.117 align:start line:69% position:50% size:70% What do you want people to-- 00:21:25.117 --> 00:21:26.785 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% Betty: Well, you know, we have been there many times, James, 00:21:26.785 --> 00:21:30.289 align:start line:63% position:50% size:75% and we've seen the graves of these little ones that haven't 00:21:30.289 --> 00:21:32.691
