00:01:06.16\00:01:08.50
WITH YOU.
00:01:08.53\00:01:09.60
I'M JUST DELIGHTED TO
LOOK AT SOMEBODY WHO DOESN'T
00:01:09.63\00:01:11.27
HAVE GRAY HAIR.
00:01:11.30\00:01:12.37
HOW MANY YEARS-WELL,
LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT FIRST
00:01:12.40\00:01:17.31
ABOUT WHERE HAVE YOU
BEEN INVOLVED SO FAR IN GOSPEL
00:01:17.34\00:01:19.71
OUTREACH?
00:01:19.74\00:01:20.64
SO I HAVE BEEN TO
INDIA TWICE WITH GOSPEL
00:01:20.68\00:01:23.48
OUTREACH.
00:01:23.51\00:01:24.61
I'VE BEEN TO INDIA A
TOTAL OF THREE TIMES DOING VIDEO
00:01:24.65\00:01:27.22
WORK FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH
MAKING VIDEOS TO PROMOTE
00:01:27.25\00:01:30.72
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND SHOW
THE DONORS WHAT THEY ARE,
00:01:30.75\00:01:35.46
WHERE THEIR MONEY IS
GOING AND HOW THE GOSPEL IS
00:01:35.49\00:01:38.13
GETTING SPREAD.
00:01:38.16\00:01:39.13
SO HOW DID YOU GET
INVOLVED IN CINEMATOGRAPHY
00:01:39.16\00:01:41.43
AND VIDEOGRAPHY?
00:01:41.46\00:01:42.50
SO I STARTED MAKING
VIDEOS ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO.
00:01:42.53\00:01:44.70
I WAS NEVER
INTERESTED IN VIDEO WORK.
00:01:44.73\00:01:47.34
I NEVER HAD A DESIRE TO
DO THAT AND THEN ONE DAY I
00:01:47.37\00:01:50.11
PICKED UP A CAMERA
AND STARTED FILMING LIKE
00:01:50.14\00:01:52.67
SPORT-STYLE VIDEOS WITH
A GOPRO, A SPORTS CAMERA,
00:01:52.71\00:01:55.98
AND THAT'S WHERE I
REALIZED THAT I HAD A
00:01:56.01\00:01:58.21
TALENT FOR MAKING
VIDEOS AND I ENJOY TELLING
00:01:58.25\00:02:00.88
STORIES THROUGH VIDEO.
00:02:00.92\00:02:02.58
WELL THE EXCITING
THING FOR ME IS THAT YOU KNOW
00:02:02.62\00:02:05.29
YOU GO INTO CINEMATOGRAPHY
YOU COULD GO TO HOLLYWOOD,
00:02:05.32\00:02:08.09
YOU COULD GO TO SPORTS.
00:02:08.12\00:02:09.52
THEY NEED YOUNG PEOPLE
WHO CAN UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE
00:02:09.56\00:02:12.86
DIMENSION.
00:02:12.89\00:02:13.76
ANOTHER YOUNG MAN
THAT I KNOW OF HE IS A
00:02:13.80\00:02:16.90
SPECIALIST, WORLD CLASS.
00:02:16.93\00:02:18.03
HE'S A TEENAGER BUT
HE RUNS THE BEST DRONE
00:02:18.07\00:02:21.57
PHOTOGRAPHY THERE IS AND
IT WILL TAKE HIM ALL OVER
00:02:21.60\00:02:23.41
THE WORLD.
00:02:23.44\00:02:24.11
A YOUNG PERSON.
00:02:24.14\00:02:25.27
HAVE YOU DONE ANY
DRONE PHOTOGRAPHY?
00:02:25.31\00:02:27.01
I HAVE DONE DRONE
PHOTOGRAPHY AND I'VE JUST
00:02:27.04\00:02:29.38
STARTED DOING
WEDDINGS WHICH IS EXCITING,
00:02:29.41\00:02:32.85
STRESSFUL.
00:02:32.88\00:02:33.95
NOW HERE YOU ARE IN ONE
OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES
00:02:33.98\00:02:37.82
IN THE COUNTRY.
00:02:37.85\00:02:38.49
COEUR D'ALENE.
00:02:38.52\00:02:39.45
YES.
00:02:39.49\00:02:40.59
TELL US A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT YOUR BACKGROUND GROWING UP
00:02:40.62\00:02:42.86
AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR
PERSONAL TESTIMONY THAT
00:02:42.89\00:02:45.06
WANT'S TO MAKE YOU
GET INVOLVED IN SPIRITUAL
00:02:45.09\00:02:48.36
THINGS AND HELPING TO
ENLARGE THE FOOTPRINT OF
00:02:48.40\00:02:50.50
GOD, NOT JUST GO OUT AND
MAKE MONEY FOR TELEVISION.
00:02:50.53\00:02:54.47
WELL I'LL JUST TRY TO
COVER MY TESTIMONY VERY
00:02:54.50\00:02:57.47
QUICKLY FOR YOU SO WE
CAN GET BACK TO BIBLE WORKERS
00:02:57.51\00:03:00.41
AND GOSPEL OUTREACH AND
ALL THAT EXCITING STUFF.
00:03:00.44\00:03:02.24
I GREW UP IN AN ADVENTIST
CHURCH AND A LOT OF TIMES
00:03:02.28\00:03:06.31
I THINK WHEN PEOPLE GROW
UP IN THE ADVENTIST CHURCH
00:03:06.35\00:03:09.72
WHEN YOU BECOME A TEENAGER
YOU START TO ASK LOTS OF
00:03:09.75\00:03:13.12
QUESTIONS AND A LOT OF
TIMES YOU STRAY AWAY FROM
00:03:13.15\00:03:15.22
THE CHURCH.
00:03:15.26\00:03:16.19
SO THAT'S WHAT I DID.
00:03:16.22\00:03:17.63
WHEN I WAS 15 YEARS
OLD I HAD NO DESIRE TO BE
00:03:17.66\00:03:22.06
INVOLVED WITH THE
CHURCH IN ANY ASPECT.
00:03:22.10\00:03:25.17
I WENT A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT DIRECTION.
00:03:25.20\00:03:27.77
I STARTED PARTYING A
LOT, ALCOHOL AND DRUGS AND I
00:03:27.80\00:03:31.04
SOON REALIZED THAT I
HAD A KNACK FOR BEING LIKE A
00:03:31.07\00:03:34.14
BUSINESS MAN SO I
STARTED-YOU KNOW YOU JUST
00:03:34.18\00:03:36.34
START FALLING FURTHER
AND FURTHER INTO THIS PIT.
00:03:36.38\00:03:38.65
I STARTED DEALING
DRUGS AND GETTING INVOLVED IN
00:03:38.68\00:03:41.22
THAT SCENE.
00:03:41.25\00:03:41.92
OH WOW.
00:03:41.95\00:03:42.95
AND I WAS JUST HANGING
OUT WITH COMPLETELY WRONG
00:03:42.98\00:03:45.39
PEOPLE AND YOU KNOW I
SAW PEOPLE AROUND ME O.D.
00:03:45.42\00:03:48.49
SOMEBODY THAT I USED
TO PURCHASE DRUGS FROM GOT
00:03:48.52\00:03:53.60
SHOT AND THIS IS
THE SCENE THAT I WAS IN.
00:03:55.70\00:03:58.93
YOU WERE DEEP INTO THIS.
00:03:58.97\00:04:00.87
THIS ISN'T JUST A CASUAL
LITTLE DRUG HERE OR THERE.
00:04:00.90\00:04:04.07
YES.
00:04:04.11\00:04:05.11
AND HOW DID IT MAKE
YOU FEEL WHEN YOU SAW THIS
00:04:05.14\00:04:07.38
OTHER PERSON O.D.? YOU
KNOW, I NEVER FELT LIKE IT
00:04:07.41\00:04:12.91
WOULD HAPPEN TO ME.
00:04:12.95\00:04:13.92
I ALWAYS FELT SO MUCH
MORE SUPERIOR THAN THAT.
00:04:13.95\00:04:15.88
THE OTHER GUY.
00:04:15.92\00:04:16.69
YES YES.
00:04:16.72\00:04:17.69
IT'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE THAT GUY.
00:04:17.72\00:04:19.12
I'LL BE OK YOU KNOW.
00:04:19.15\00:04:20.36
I SEE PEOPLE GET
ARRESTED AND GO TO JAIL, GO TO
00:04:20.39\00:04:23.12
PRISON AND ITS LIKE I'M
NEVER GOING TO GET CAUGHT
00:04:23.16\00:04:25.49
I'M TOO GOOD FOR THAT.
00:04:25.53\00:04:26.49
NOW JUST BE REAL
HONEST, WHAT WAS YOUR MOTIVATION
00:04:26.53\00:04:29.13
AT THAT POINT?
00:04:29.16\00:04:30.23
WHY DID YOU GO AFTER
THESE DRUGS AND WANT MORE AND
00:04:30.27\00:04:32.43
MORE AND DEEPER AND
MORE EXCITING THINGS?
00:04:32.47\00:04:34.67
MONEY.
00:04:34.70\00:04:35.57
YOU KNOW I JUST
WANTED TO MAKE MONEY.
00:04:35.60\00:04:37.04
SO YOU WERE IN IT
FOR ULTERIOR PURPOSES.
00:04:37.07\00:04:40.01
NOT JUST FOR THE WAY
YOU WOULD FEEL YOURSELF.
00:04:40.04\00:04:42.71
DEFINITELY.
00:04:42.74\00:04:43.78
AND I ENJOYED THAT AS
WELL AND I DID MY FAIR AMOUNT
00:04:43.81\00:04:46.28
OF DRUGS BUT YES, I
REALLY WAS IN IT FOR THE MONEY.
00:04:46.31\00:04:50.02
I WANTED TO MAKE MONEY FAST.
00:04:50.05\00:04:51.69
EVERYBODY WANTS TO GET
RICH QUICK AND SO THAT WAS
00:04:51.72\00:04:53.02
MY WAY THAT I WAS
GOING TO GET RICH QUICK.
00:04:53.05\00:04:54.69
BUT I WAS VERY UNHAPPY.
00:04:54.72\00:04:55.79
I WAS AN EXTREMELY UNHAPPY
PERSON FALLING IN AND OUT
00:04:55.82\00:04:56.52
OF DEPRESSION ALL THE TIME.
00:04:56.56\00:04:57.46
AND WHEN I WAS 18
I ATTEMPTED TO COMMIT
00:04:57.49\00:04:58.73
SUICIDE.
00:04:58.76\00:05:00.43
I TOOK A 45 CALIBER
HAND GUN AND I HELD IT TO MY
00:05:00.46\00:05:05.47
HEAD AND I PULLED THE
TRIGGER AND IT JAMMED.
00:05:15.94\00:05:21.02
WOW.
00:05:21.05\00:05:22.02
IT WAS THE FIRST TIME
THAT GUN HAD EVER JAMMED
00:05:22.05\00:05:24.99
BEFORE.
00:05:25.02\00:05:25.99
IT WAS SUCH A
RELIABLE WEAPON AND IT JAMMED.
00:05:26.02\00:05:28.29
YOU CAME TO THE POINT
OF SUCH DISCOURAGEMENT AND
00:05:28.32\00:05:30.89
UNEASINESS AND RAGE AND
EMPTINESS YOU THOUGHT IT'S
00:05:30.93\00:05:36.10
OVER.
00:05:36.13\00:05:36.77
YES.
00:05:36.80\00:05:37.80
AND IT SCARED ME AND I
REALIZED WHAT I HAD TRIED
00:05:37.83\00:05:40.94
TO DO AND IT REALLY
REALLY MADE ME START TO THINK.
00:05:40.97\00:05:44.77
AND THEN TWO DAYS
AFTER I ATTEMPTED TO COMMIT
00:05:44.81\00:05:47.64
SUICIDE I SHOT MYSELF IN
THE LEG WITH THE SAME GUN
00:05:47.68\00:05:49.38
BY MISTAKE.
00:05:49.41\00:05:50.45
BY MISTAKE WHILE
CLEANING THE WEAPON THE GUN WENT
00:05:50.48\00:05:51.25
OFF AND I SHOT
MYSELF IN THE LEG.
00:05:51.28\00:05:52.71
I SHATTERED MY TIBIA,
HAD TO HAVE A ROD AND SOME
00:05:52.75\00:05:54.08
SCREWS PUT INTO MY LEG.
00:05:54.12\00:05:55.08
AND IT WAS LIKE, OH
LORD WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO
00:05:55.12\00:05:56.08
TEACH ME HERE.
00:05:56.12\00:05:57.12
I MEAN I TRIED TO
COMMIT SUICIDE TWO DAYS BEFORE
00:05:57.15\00:05:58.02
AND NOW I JUST
SHOT MYSELF IN THE LEG.
00:05:58.05\00:05:59.42
AND YOU SAW WHAT
IT DID TO YOUR LEG.
00:05:59.45\00:06:00.82
I DID SEE WHAT IT DID TO MY LEG.
00:06:00.86\00:06:02.19
I LOOK BACK AT IT NOW
AND IT'S JUST LIKE WOW, THE
00:06:02.22\00:06:07.30
LORD WAS REALLY
TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING.
00:06:10.90\00:06:15.94
IN TECHNICOLOR THAT
YOUR BRAINS MIGHT HAVE BEEN
00:06:24.08\00:06:26.82
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR LEG.
00:06:26.85\00:06:30.12
YES, EXACTLY.
00:06:30.15\00:06:31.52
SO AFTER THAT HAPPENED
I REALIZED THAT I SORT OF
00:06:31.55\00:06:34.39
NEEDED TO GET
AWAY FROM ALL OF THAT.
00:06:34.42\00:06:36.32
AND SO I SPENT A
SUMMER HITCH HIKING AROUND THE
00:06:36.36\00:06:40.70
WEST COAST, AND THEN
I SPENT A SUMMER ON THE
00:06:40.73\00:06:44.37
PACIFIC CREST TRAIL
WHICH IS A FOOTPATH THAT GOES
00:06:44.40\00:06:48.64
FROM MEXICO TO CANADA
ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.
00:06:48.67\00:06:51.61
IT'S 26 HUNDRED MILES.
00:06:51.64\00:06:53.41
AND I THINK I WAS
SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING
00:06:53.44\00:06:56.64
WHEN I WENT OUT THERE.
00:06:56.68\00:06:57.71
I WAS ALSO TRYING TO GET
AWAY FROM THE SCENE THAT I
00:06:57.75\00:07:00.18
HAD GOTTEN A PART OF
BECAUSE I KNEW IN MY HEART
00:07:00.22\00:07:03.25
THAT IF I DIDN'T GET
AWAY FROM IT THAT IT WAS GOING
00:07:03.28\00:07:04.65
TO KILL ME.
00:07:04.69\00:07:05.82
AND I HAD GOTTEN SO
DEEP IN THAT I JUST NEEDED TO
00:07:05.85\00:07:08.56
GET OUT.
00:07:08.59\00:07:09.62
SO EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY
NOT KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE IT,
00:07:09.66\00:07:12.33
YOU CAN PROBABLY
SENSE THAT SOMETHING, SOME
00:07:12.36\00:07:14.73
POWER, SOME FORCE,
SOMEONE WITH A CAPITAL "S" WAS
00:07:14.73\00:07:19.57
DRAWING YOU AWAY FROM
THAT WHICH WOULD HAVE DESTROYED
00:07:19.60\00:07:23.30
YOU TO SOMETHING BETTER.
00:07:23.34\00:07:24.71
AND YOU KNOW NO
MATTER WHAT, I ALWAYS KNEW, I
00:07:24.74\00:07:27.61
ALWAYS KNEW
THAT THERE WAS A GOD.
00:07:27.64\00:07:29.24
I ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT
THERE WAS A GOD, BUT THE
00:07:29.28\00:07:32.08
PULL OF WANTING TO
MAKE MONEY AND BE SUCCESSFUL
00:07:32.11\00:07:36.38
AND GET RICH QUICK, I
HAD NO DESIRE TO BE A PART OF
00:07:36.42\00:07:41.72
ANY CHRISTIAN FAMILY EVEN
THOUGH I KNEW THAT GOD WAS
00:07:41.76\00:07:45.29
REAL.
00:07:45.33\00:07:46.33
AND NOW I CAN LOOK
BACK AND SEE HOW MANY TIMES
00:07:46.36\00:07:48.66
THAT GOD HAD SAVED MY LIFE.
00:07:48.70\00:07:50.27
I HAVE BEEN THROUGH-I
COULD TELL YOU SO MANY
00:07:50.30\00:07:52.43
STORIES OF WHERE I CAME
SO CLOSE TO DEATH WHILE I WAS
00:07:52.47\00:07:55.30
OUT TRAVELLING AND HITCH
HIKING AND LIVING OUT OF A
00:07:55.34\00:08:00.31
TENT ON THE GROUND FOR
MONTHS AT A TIME AND ALL
00:08:00.34\00:08:03.71
THE TIMES THAT THE
LORD HAS PROTECTED ME.
00:08:03.75\00:08:05.71
SO THIS IS YOUR
LIFE BEFORE CHRIST.
00:08:05.75\00:08:08.02
THIS IS MY LIFE BEFORE CHRIST.
00:08:08.05\00:08:09.45
THIS IS PART "A" AND
WE'VE GOT PART "B" THE "AHA"
00:08:09.48\00:08:11.49
MOMENT WHEN YOU MEET HIM
AND THEN OF COURSE WHAT'S
00:08:11.52\00:08:15.19
IT LIKE SINCE.
00:08:15.22\00:08:16.29
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PART "B".
00:08:16.32\00:08:18.46
HOW DID THINGS CHANGE?
00:08:18.49\00:08:20.03
WHERE DID YOU HAVE A
DAMASCUS ROAD EXPERIENCE
00:08:20.06\00:08:24.40
LIKE THE APOSTLE PAUL
WHERE SUDDENLY THE LIGHTS
00:08:24.43\00:08:26.50
CAME ON AND THINGS CHANGED?
00:08:26.53\00:08:29.14
WELL LONNIE, I WAS SITTING
IN A ROOM WITH A BUNCH OF
00:08:29.17\00:08:32.07
PEOPLE WHO WERE
PARTAKING IN DRUGS.
00:08:32.11\00:08:36.11
YOU WERE IN A DRUG SCENE.
00:08:36.14\00:08:37.15
I WAS IN A DRUG SCENE
AND EVERY DRUG OF CHOICE WAS
00:08:37.18\00:08:40.28
THERE.
00:08:40.32\00:08:41.38
THERE WERE PEOPLE SHOOTING
UP WITH HEROINE AND I WAS
00:08:41.42\00:08:45.35
SITTING THERE AND I HAD
SOMEWHAT OF AN OUT-OF-BODY
00:08:45.39\00:08:47.16
EXPERIENCE.
00:08:47.19\00:08:47.72
I SAW WHAT WAS GOING ON.
00:08:47.76\00:08:48.82
IT'S LIKE I COULD SEE THE
WHOLE ROOM AND I COULD SEE
00:08:48.86\00:08:49.92
THE PAIN THAT EVERYBODY
IN THAT ROOM WAS FEELING AND
00:08:49.96\00:08:50.83
I JUST FELT SO
ASHAMED OF WHERE I WAS.
00:08:50.86\00:08:52.49
I FELT EXTREMELY ASHAMED
AND I HAD NEVER FELT THAT
00:08:52.53\00:08:53.86
BEFORE.
00:08:53.90\00:08:54.46
THIS WAS A UNIQUE VISION.
00:08:54.46\00:08:55.43
GOD WAS HAVING YOU
LOOK OUT AT WHAT THIS WAS
00:08:55.46\00:08:56.50
REALLY ALL ABOUT.
00:08:56.53\00:08:57.17
YES.
00:08:57.20\00:08:58.23
AND YOU KNOW PEOPLE
OFTEN ASK ME YOU KNOW, WERE YOU
00:08:58.27\00:08:59.13
DOING HALLUCINOGENICS
DURING THAT TIME.
00:08:59.17\00:09:00.57
IS THAT WHY YOU HAD THIS HAPPEN?
00:09:00.60\00:09:01.94
NO I WAS NOT.
00:09:01.97\00:09:02.47
I WAS NOT THAT DAY.
00:09:02.50\00:09:03.51
BUT YET I STILL, I SAW
THIS AND I REALIZED THAT,
00:09:03.54\00:09:04.64
I REALIZED THAT WHAT I
WAS DOING WAS JUST NOT WHERE I
00:09:04.67\00:09:05.67
WANTED TO BE AND I FELT,
I FELT ASHAMED AND I FELT
00:09:05.71\00:09:11.05
THE PRESENCE OF THE
LORD THERE STRONGER THAN I'VE
00:09:35.00\00:09:37.67
EVER FELT BEFORE.
00:09:37.71\00:09:39.17
AND IT WAS A MATTER OF A
FEW MONTHS AFTER THAT THAT
00:09:39.21\00:09:43.88
DEL AND BONNIE ORSER
WHO ARE DIRECTORS FOR GOSPEL
00:09:43.91\00:09:47.35
OUTREACH WHO I HAD
BEEN FRIENDS WITH FOR MANY
00:09:47.38\00:09:50.35
YEARS.
00:09:50.39\00:09:51.12
DO THEY LIVE IN COEUR D'ALENE?
00:09:51.15\00:09:51.92
THEY LIVE IN
COEUR D'ALENE AS WELL.
00:09:51.95\00:09:53.32
THEY CALLED ME AND
THEY ASKED ME IF I WAS
00:09:53.36\00:09:55.02
INTERESTED IN
GOING TO INDIA WITH THEM.
00:09:55.06\00:09:56.96
REALLY.
00:09:56.99\00:09:57.63
YES.
00:09:57.66\00:09:58.69
NOW HERE THEY ARE IN
THEIR MID SEVENTIES AND YOU'RE
00:09:58.73\00:09:59.86
JUST A YOUNG KID.
00:09:59.89\00:10:01.00
YES.
00:10:01.03\00:10:02.50
WHAT DID YOU SAY" I'M
ALWAYS UP FOR AN ADVENTURE
00:10:02.53\00:10:06.74
AND I THINK AT THAT
POINT I WAS ALSO TRYING TO GET
00:10:06.77\00:10:09.27
AWAY AND SO I SAID YES,
ABSOLUTELY I WOULD LOVE TO
00:10:09.30\00:10:11.94
GO.
00:10:11.97\00:10:12.97
AND THE REASON WHY THEY
WERE INVITING ME, ONE OF
00:10:13.01\00:10:15.04
THE REASONS WAS TO DO
VIDEO FOR THEM AND HELP
00:10:15.08\00:10:17.51
THEM AS THEY TRAVEL.
00:10:17.55\00:10:18.48
SO THIS WAS A FAITH
VENTURE ON THEIR PART.
00:10:18.51\00:10:20.32
HERE'S A FAITHLESS
DRUGGIE AND THEY'RE INVITING HIM
00:10:20.35\00:10:24.35
TO GO ON A VERY VERY
HIGH CHRISTIAN FOCUSED MISSION
00:10:24.39\00:10:28.29
AND TO TAKE YOU WITH THEM.
00:10:28.32\00:10:29.76
YES.
00:10:29.79\00:10:30.53
WHAT HAPPENED AS
A RESULT OF THAT?
00:10:30.56\00:10:32.56
YOU KNOW GOING TO
INDIA CHANGED MY LIFE.
00:10:32.59\00:10:35.23
INDIA WAS WHERE WE WERE GOING.
00:10:35.26\00:10:36.80
GOING THERE CHANGED MY LIFE.
00:10:36.83\00:10:38.10
SEEING HOW THE LORD
IS WORKING IN THESE OTHER
00:10:38.13\00:10:40.24
COUNTRIES AND JUST FEELING
THE LORD'S PRESENCE THERE
00:10:40.27\00:10:45.14
IN INDIA.
00:10:45.17\00:10:46.24
SO THAT WAS PART
OF YOU "AHA" MOMENT.
00:10:46.27\00:10:48.61
YES.
00:10:48.64\00:10:49.18
YOU SENSED HIS PRESENCE.
00:10:49.21\00:10:50.21
YOU KNEW HE WAS SPEAKING TO YOU.
00:10:50.25\00:10:51.98
YES AND YOU KNOW I WISH
I COULD TELL YOU THAT I WAS
00:10:52.01\00:10:54.62
CHANGED OVER NIGHT.
00:10:54.65\00:10:55.68
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
00:10:55.72\00:10:56.45
YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT THE REALITY.
00:10:56.48\00:10:57.72
THE REALITY IS THAT THE
DAILY GROWTH EXPERIENCE.
00:10:57.75\00:11:00.32
WELL, YOU'RE LIKE TIMOTHY.
00:11:00.36\00:11:01.36
FROM A CHILD YOU'VE
KNOWN THE SCRIPTURES BUT YOU
00:11:01.39\00:11:04.36
WERE A GOOD SOLDIER BUT
YOU KIND OF STRAYED A LONG
00:11:04.39\00:11:06.66
WAYS FROM CAMP.
00:11:06.70\00:11:07.50
YES.
00:11:07.56\00:11:08.16
TIME TO GET BACK.
00:11:08.20\00:11:08.83
YES SO MUCH SO.
00:11:08.86\00:11:10.73
SO THE TIME THAT I
SPENT IN INDIA WAS EXTREMELY
00:11:10.77\00:11:13.27
MEANINGFUL TO
ME AND JUST SEEING.
00:11:13.30\00:11:16.60
I FELL IN LOVE WITH
GOSPEL OUTREACH ESPECIALLY.
00:11:16.64\00:11:19.54
I BELIEVE IN THE
MISSION THAT GOSPEL OUTREACH IS
00:11:19.57\00:11:23.08
THERE FOR YOU KNOW
TRAINING THESE BIBLE
00:11:23.11\00:11:25.95
WORKERS, USING THESE
BIBLE WORKERS TO REACH THE
00:11:25.98\00:11:28.18
UNREACHED PEOPLE IN
THESE REMOTE VILLAGES.
00:11:28.22\00:11:30.85
IT'S SO POWERFUL AND I
CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE THAT IT
00:11:30.89\00:11:33.82
IS MAKING IN THE WORLD.
00:11:33.86\00:11:34.86
WELL YOU ACTUALLY FELL
IN LOVE WITH THE JESUS THAT
00:11:34.89\00:11:38.33
IS BEHIND THE POWER AND
THE FORCE THAT'S DRIVING
00:11:38.36\00:11:41.33
THESE PEOPLE WHO PUT
THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE.
00:11:41.36\00:11:44.40
YES.
00:11:44.43\00:11:45.37
I SAW HOW THE LORD
PROTECTS THESE PEOPLE WHO
00:11:45.40\00:11:47.74
ARE OFTEN TIMES IN
PLACES WHERE THERE IS HOSTILITY
00:11:47.77\00:11:52.01
TOWARDS THEM
BECAUSE THEY ARE CHRISTIAN.
00:11:52.04\00:11:54.11
SO IN YOUR OWN PRIVATE
WAY YOU WERE SAYING LORD I'M
00:11:54.14\00:11:56.64
GOING TO MY HAND IN
YOURS LIKE THESE FOLKS ARE.
00:11:56.68\00:11:58.78
I WANT TO BE A PART OF THIS.
00:11:58.81\00:11:59.88
YES YES.
00:11:59.91\00:12:00.98
BECAUSE THIS IS
SOMETHING HOLLYWOOD DOESN'T GIVE
00:12:01.02\00:12:03.18
YOU.
00:12:03.22\00:12:04.02
SO TRUE.
00:12:04.05\00:12:04.69
YES.
00:12:04.72\00:12:05.75
THERE ARE PEOPLE WATCHING
BEFORE WE GO TO OUR BREAK
00:12:05.79\00:12:07.56
RIGHT NOW AND THEY ARE
SAYING I WANT MY TEENAGER
00:12:07.59\00:12:11.76
TO WATCH THIS.
00:12:11.79\00:12:12.93
I WANT THEM TO SEE.
00:12:12.96\00:12:14.50
MY KIDS ARE IN DRUGS,
THEY'RE IN ALCOHOL, THEY
00:12:14.56\00:12:16.30
ARE DOING ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
00:12:16.33\00:12:17.33
TALK TO THAT CAMERA
AND TALK TO THAT PERSON AT
00:12:17.37\00:12:19.67
HOME RIGHT NOW AND JUST
TELL THEM WHAT THEY SHOULD
00:12:19.70\00:12:22.94
DO AND HOW THEY CAN BE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO HAVING THAT
00:12:22.97\00:12:26.34
AH HA TRANSFORMING
MOMENT IN THEIR OWN LIVES IN
00:12:26.37\00:12:28.58
THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE.
00:12:28.61\00:12:29.88
I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU
THE PEOPLE AT HOME WHO MAY
00:12:29.91\00:12:32.48
HAVE CHILDREN WHO
ARE GOING THROUGH SOME OF
00:12:32.51\00:12:34.92
THESE THINGS DON'T
STOP PRAYING FOR THEM.
00:12:34.95\00:12:36.79
I BELIEVE THAT THE
PRAYERS OF MY MOTHER AND MY
00:12:36.82\00:12:40.82
GRANDMOTHER AND THE
PEOPLE IN MY LIFE WAS A HUGE
00:12:40.86\00:12:44.06
FACTOR IN WHY I CAME
BACK TO THE CHURCH AND WHY I
00:12:44.09\00:12:48.10
FOUND JESUS AGAIN.
00:12:48.13\00:12:50.67
AND AS A RESULT YOU'RE
HAPPIER THAN YOU EVER WERE
00:12:50.70\00:12:54.20
BEFORE ALL OF THE
ARTIFICIAL STIMULANTS.
00:12:54.24\00:12:56.81
YES YES.
00:12:56.84\00:12:57.71
SO TRUE.
00:12:57.74\00:12:58.77
AND I HAVE NO DESIRE.
00:12:58.81\00:12:59.81
I HAVE NO DESIRE
TO GO BACK THERE.
00:12:59.84\00:13:03.14
ALL THOSE THINGS ARE
JUST EXTREMELY TEMPORARY.
00:13:03.18\00:13:05.51
THIS IS SO TRUE.
00:13:05.55\00:13:06.28
EXTREMELY TEMPORARY.
00:13:06.31\00:13:07.38
YOU TOUCHED MY HEART.
00:13:07.42\00:13:09.88
WE HAVE A LITTLE
BROCHURE AND YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST
00:13:09.92\00:13:13.36

EARTH.
00:13:33.41\00:13:34.04
VAST, BEAUTIFUL.
00:13:34.08\00:13:35.14
BUT TAKE A CLOSER LOOK
AND YOU CAN SEE THE PAIN OF A
00:13:35.18\00:13:40.25
WORLD ON A
COLLISION COURSE WITH IT'S OWN
00:13:42.92\00:13:45.89
GREED.
00:13:45.92\00:13:47.46
HUMANITY.
00:13:47.49\00:13:48.19
WE NEED LOVE.
00:13:48.22\00:13:50.59
WE NEED HOPE.
00:13:50.63\00:13:52.99
WE NEED A SAVIOR.
00:13:53.03\00:13:56.26
MORE THAN ONE THIRD OF
THE WORLD'S SEVEN BILLION
00:13:56.30\00:13:59.00
PEOPLE STILL NEED TO
HEAR ABOUT GOD'S LOVE AND HIS
00:13:59.03\00:14:03.07
PLAN TO SAVE US.
00:14:03.10\00:14:04.47
ONE THIRD.
00:14:04.51\00:14:06.21
IN SUCH A BIG WORLD IT'S
EASY TO FEEL SMALL BUT YOU
00:14:06.24\00:14:12.31
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:14:12.35\00:14:14.55
PARTNER WITH GOSPEL
OUTREACH TO FUND BIBLE
00:14:14.58\00:14:17.49
WORKERS WHO ARE
MISSIONARIES IN THEIR OWN
00:14:17.52\00:14:19.82
VILLAGES, TOWNS AND CITIES.
00:14:19.85\00:14:22.92
THEY SHARE THE
LIFE-CHANGING LOVE AND
00:14:22.96\00:14:27.60
STORY OF JESUS CHRIST.
00:14:27.66\00:14:30.73
THANK YOU FOR GIVING.
00:14:30.77\00:14:33.87
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE SO THAT ALL THE
00:14:33.90\00:14:38.97
WORLD MAY KNOW JESUS.
00:14:41.74\00:14:45.11
I AM SO REFRESHED TO BE
TALKING WITH SOMEBODY AT
00:14:45.15\00:14:47.15
THE YOUNGER EDGE
OF GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:14:47.18\00:14:49.55
IF YOU'VE WATCHED THIS
FOR 25 PLUS YEARS THERE ARE A
00:14:49.58\00:14:52.59
LOT OF FOLKS WITH
GRAY HAIR LIKE MINE.
00:14:52.62\00:14:54.76
HERE WE HAVE ONE OF THESE
YOUNG PEOPLE THAT'S COMING
00:14:54.79\00:14:56.73
ON BOARD AND HE'S
HARDLY 25 YEARS OF AGE.
00:14:56.76\00:14:58.79
HE'S JUST A KID.
00:14:58.83\00:15:00.46
AARON RITTENOUR THANK YOU
FOR OPENING YOUR HEART AND
00:15:00.50\00:15:02.96
SHARING YOUR TESTIMONY.
00:15:03.00\00:15:04.03
I WANT TO SEE A COUPLE
OF EXAMPLES IN A FEW MINUTES
00:15:04.07\00:15:06.27
ABOUT AN ACTUAL VIDEO
YOU HAVE SHOT BECAUSE YOU'RE
00:15:06.30\00:15:08.97
GETTING VERY GOOD AT THIS.
00:15:09.00\00:15:10.01
BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
YOUR PERSONAL TESTIMONY.
00:15:10.04\00:15:12.54
YES.
00:15:12.57\00:15:13.27
YOUR LIFE BEFORE YOU MET JESUS.
00:15:13.31\00:15:14.71
EVEN THOUGH YOU HAD
GROWN UP IN A CHRISTIAN
00:15:14.74\00:15:16.51
ENVIRONMENT YOU
WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
00:15:16.54\00:15:18.65
AND HE KIND OF CAME
AND KNOCKED YOU ON THE HEAD
00:15:18.68\00:15:22.15
WHEN YOU WERE OVER IN INDIA.
00:15:22.18\00:15:23.39
HE DID.
00:15:23.42\00:15:24.42
AND YOU SAW FIRST HAND
WHAT THE GOSPEL DOES TO
00:15:24.45\00:15:26.52
CHANGE PEOPLE'S LIVES.
00:15:26.55\00:15:28.36
NOW AS A RESULT THIS
HASN'T BEEN JUST ALL YOU
00:15:28.39\00:15:31.09
KNOW COOKIES AND
ICE CREAM FOR YOU.
00:15:31.13\00:15:36.43
YOU CAME NEAR
LOSING YOUR OWN LIFE.
00:15:36.46\00:15:39.83
IT'S NOT JUST ALWAYS SAFE.
00:15:39.87\00:15:41.44
TELL US A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT THAT EXPERIENCE.
00:15:41.47\00:15:43.14
SO THE FIRST TIME THAT I
WAS IN INDIA THE DEVIL WAS
00:15:43.17\00:15:46.98
NOT HAPPY THAT I WAS
THERE AND HE KNEW HOW MUCH I
00:15:47.01\00:15:50.68
COULD DO FOR THE LORD.
00:15:50.71\00:15:52.85
AND SO I CAME DOWN WITH
A SICKNESS WHEN I WAS IN
00:15:52.88\00:15:56.45
INDIA AND IT WAS A
COMBINATION OF BEING SICK
00:15:56.48\00:16:01.22
AND ALSO HAVING AN
ALLERGIC REACTION TO A
00:16:01.26\00:16:05.03
DRUG THAT WAS GIVEN TO
ME BECAUSE I WAS EXTREMELY
00:16:05.06\00:16:09.76
SICK, 103 PLUS TEMPERATURE.
00:16:09.80\00:16:11.80
CONTRACTED OVER THERE.
00:16:11.83\00:16:13.27
YES OVER THERE.
00:16:13.30\00:16:14.30
AND THAT'S ONE OF THE
DANGERS OF ANY MISSIONARY
00:16:14.34\00:16:16.60
AND WESTERNER,
CAUCASIAN THAT GOES OVER THERE.
00:16:16.64\00:16:19.51
SO CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE
TEMPERATURES AND HOW YOU
00:16:19.54\00:16:23.21
WERE FEELING?
00:16:23.24\00:16:24.25
I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN THE
AMOUNT OF PAIN THAT I WAS
00:16:24.28\00:16:26.95
IN WHILE I WAS THERE AND
THAT'S INCLUDING SHOOTING
00:16:26.98\00:16:29.82
MYSELF WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.
00:16:29.85\00:16:31.69
THE PAIN WAS TERRIBLE.
00:16:31.72\00:16:32.69
I DO NOT REMEMBER
WHAT HAPPENED FOR TEN DAYS
00:16:32.72\00:16:33.49
BECAUSE I WAS JUST SO OUT OF IT.
00:16:33.52\00:16:35.02
I KNOW THAT I WAS IN
A HOSPITAL FOR A LITTLE
00:16:35.06\00:16:36.36
WHILE AND THEY FINALLY
LET ME GO, AND I WAS IN
00:16:36.39\00:16:37.69
SOMEBODY'S HOUSE AND I
CAME VERY CLOSE TO DEATH.
00:16:37.73\00:16:39.06
I BELIEVE THAT I WAS
RIGHT ON THE DOORSTEP OF DEATH.
00:16:39.09\00:16:40.40
A PASTOR CAME AND I WAS
ON THE EDGE AND A PASTOR CAME
00:16:40.43\00:16:41.70
AND THEY ANOINTED ME
AND PRAYED FOR ME ONE NIGHT.
00:16:41.73\00:16:43.03
THE NEXT MORNING I WAS
DOING SO MUCH BETTER AND I
00:16:43.06\00:16:44.37
WAS ACTUALLY ABLE
TO GET OUT OF BED.
00:16:44.40\00:16:45.70
AND AFTER TEN DAYS OF
JUST THIS EXTREME SICKNESS OVER
00:16:45.73\00:16:47.07
NIGHT BECAUSE OF THE
PRAYERS OF THIS PASTOR AND
00:16:47.10\00:16:48.40
THIS ANOINTING I WAS
ABLE TO CLIMB OUT OF BED AND
00:16:48.44\00:16:49.74
WITHIN THREE DAYS OTHER
THAN THE FACT THAT I LOST
00:16:49.77\00:16:51.07
25-30 POUNDS I WAS
ABLE-WOW, YOU LOST 25-30
00:16:51.11\00:16:52.41
POUNDS?
00:16:52.44\00:16:53.07
YES IN TEN DAYS.
00:16:53.11\00:16:54.08
YOU HARDLY WEIGHT 80
POUNDS IN YOUR STOCKING

NOW YOU KNOW THE TEXT
FROM PAUL MUST APPLY IN MODERN
00:16:56.91\00:16:57.65
WAYS TO YOU AND YOUR JOURNEY.
00:16:57.68\00:16:58.65
PAUL CAME TO THE PLACE
WHERE HE HAD BEEN BEATEN
00:16:58.68\00:16:59.55
UP AND TARRED AND
FEATHERED AND BEATEN AND
00:16:59.58\00:17:01.18
THEY THOUGHT THEY
HAD LEFT HIM FOR DEAD.
00:17:01.22\00:17:02.52
I AM CRUCIFIED WITH
CHRIST NEVERTHELESS I NOW LIVE.
00:17:02.55\00:17:05.99
NOT IN MY OWN POWER BUT
BY THE POWER OF JESUS CHRIST
00:17:06.02\00:17:11.09
THAT LIVES WITHIN ME
AND THAT IS WHAT I HAVE JUST
00:17:13.06\00:17:19.43
HEARD.
00:17:19.47\00:17:20.47
BECAUSE AS A RESULT
ARE YOU BACK ON YOUR FEET?
00:17:20.50\00:17:25.87

00:17:25.91\00:17:28.21
I AM BACK ON MY FEET
AND YOU KNOW THAT EXPERIENCE
00:17:28.24\00:17:33.75
SHOWED ME EVEN MORE
THAT THE LORD HAS A SPECIAL
00:17:33.78\00:17:38.85
PLAN FOR MY LIFE.
00:17:57.71\00:18:02.84
AND EVEN NOW I'M NOT SURE
IF I REALLY KNOW WHAT THAT
00:18:11.89\00:18:14.69
IS.
00:18:14.72\00:18:15.82
I THINK THERE ARE A LOT
OF YOUNG PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO
00:18:15.86\00:18:17.16
MAY BE FEELING THE SAME WAY.
00:18:17.19\00:18:18.46
I'D LIKE TO HAVE YOU
TALK TO THEM DIRECTLY AT THAT
00:18:18.49\00:18:20.20
CAMERA AND TELL THEM
ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE AND WHAT
00:18:20.23\00:18:23.13
THEY MIGHT BE FEELING RIGHT NOW.
00:18:23.16\00:18:26.20
I HAVE SUCH A DESIRE TO
ENCOURAGE YOUNG PEOPLE TO

POINT AND IT HAS TO HAVE A
00:21:05.29\00:21:07.30

IN 1980 I BEGAN TO SHOW
INTEREST IN LEARNING ABOUT
00:23:13.32\00:23:17.26
CHRISTIANITY.
00:23:17.29\00:23:18.49
WHAT THE BIBLE HAD TO
SAY WAS MY CONSTANT ENQUIRY.
00:23:18.53\00:23:20.06

00:23:51.66\00:23:54.60
DEPENDED UPON THE LORD.
00:23:54.63\00:23:56.67
WHEN I WAS CALLED TO
WORK IN THIS VILLAGE I WAS
00:23:56.70\00:23:59.47
OFFERED TO WORK HERE
BECAUSE THE WHOLE VILLAGE
00:23:59.50\00:24:02.74
IS A HIGH CASTE AND
THEY ARE ALL HINDUS.
00:24:02.77\00:24:05.97

IN SOME OF THE
REMOTE VILLAGES IN OUR AREA.
00:24:36.74\00:24:39.11
THE FIRST DAY MY

PERSON TOLD US TO LEAVE.
00:24:50.89\00:24:52.92
LIKE THIS THE WHOLE
VILLAGE TURNED US AWAY.
00:24:52.95\00:24:56.16
NOBODY RESPONDED
POSITIVELY AND I WAS VERY
00:24:56.19\00:24:59.19
DISAPPOINTED.
00:24:59.23\00:25:01.33
BUT ME AND MY HUSBAND
WENT TO THE CHURCH AND STARTED
00:25:02.70\00:25:06.33
ASKING GOD TO OPEN
DOORS FOR OUR MINISTRY.
00:25:06.37\00:25:09.54
ONE DAY A YOUNG BOY
CAME TO OUR HOME AND ASKED ME
00:25:09.57\00:25:14.18

TO HELP HIS SICK GRANDMA.
00:25:14.21\00:25:18.08

HOUSE AND BROUGHT ME TO HIS

GRANDMA'S BEDSIDE.
00:25:22.38\00:25:23.22

I IMMEDIATELY ASKED
THE BOY TO GET ME A COTTON
00:25:25.69\00:25:28.69
CLOTH AND SOME COLD WATER.
00:25:28.72\00:25:30.43
AFTER A FEW DAYS OF
TAKING CARE OF THIS WOMAN AND
00:25:30.46\00:25:34.30
