Welcome back, we have all
the family here and it may not
00:00:14.12\00:00:16.73
last long either, so I want
to tell you that you can take
00:00:16.76\00:00:19.68
them anytime you need to
take them, but we are going to
00:00:19.71\00:00:22.59
start out with
asking you, there has been
00:00:22.62\00:00:25.74
major changes with Reginald.
00:00:25.77\00:00:27.90
Let's talk about when you
first were dating and all the
00:00:27.93\00:00:30.51
fussing that was
happening in your relationship.
00:00:30.55\00:00:33.11
He was jumping into
gangs and acting like a fool,
00:00:33.14\00:00:35.72
and you guys probably
broke up and got back together
00:00:35.76\00:00:38.30
a number of times.
00:00:38.34\00:00:39.73
So tell us from your point of
view the changes that happened.
00:00:39.76\00:00:43.90
How did this
beautiful family come about?
00:00:43.94\00:00:46.12
Well one time when I
left for about six months,
00:00:46.15\00:00:49.31
I was pregnant with Reginald Jr.
and as I look back I think if
00:00:49.35\00:00:53.96
I would have stayed away, none
of this would have happened.
00:00:54.00\00:00:57.71
It was just a blessing to
see what God has done because
00:00:57.74\00:01:01.42
I came back, and because he
surrendered his life to God.
00:01:01.45\00:01:05.14
Did you believe it
was ever going to happen?
00:01:05.18\00:01:07.51
No! - no, because that
was a huge change, even in his
00:01:07.54\00:01:12.87
testimony that was
a huge change. - yes!
00:01:12.91\00:01:15.75
Did you have a
Christian background yourself?
00:01:15.79\00:01:19.37
I called myself a Christian,
but I was still in and out.
00:01:19.40\00:01:25.33
I wasn't solid. - because
you were attracted to him
00:01:25.37\00:01:27.96
and he wasn't in
that life at all. - Right!
00:01:28.00\00:01:31.06
So you saw a lot
of changes? - yeah!
00:01:31.10\00:01:33.07
How about now, watching
him and your son and the
00:01:33.10\00:01:36.11
other kids, they sing in
church and all that stuff.
00:01:36.14\00:01:39.11
How about that?
00:01:39.15\00:01:40.44
- it's amazing, it is absolutely
amazing what God has done.
00:01:40.47\00:01:43.28
I would've never
thought it would be like this.
00:01:43.32\00:01:45.70
So I'm going to ask now
Renia, you were here during
00:01:47.45\00:01:51.08
this whole segment and listened
to your brother talk about
00:01:51.11\00:01:53.51
his doing a whole Revelation
Seminar, and you listened to
00:01:53.55\00:01:57.30
your dad's
testimony, what do you think?
00:01:57.33\00:01:59.09
Well it is very cool, I really
didn't think that he could
00:01:59.13\00:02:02.92
really do it
because he's just a boy.
00:02:02.96\00:02:04.95
It was incredible how God
could work through my brother.
00:02:04.98\00:02:08.72
Did you listen to the
Revelation Seminar? - yes!
00:02:08.76\00:02:10.62
Did you go to the mall? -
yes, every day I was there.
00:02:10.65\00:02:15.86
It was cool and sometimes I
would go and sing, it was so
00:02:15.89\00:02:20.33
cool how God was working
through our family and our dad's
00:02:20.37\00:02:24.78
testimony was very cool,
and how he was in a gang,
00:02:24.81\00:02:30.98
it's just incredible
how God brings a man like
00:02:31.02\00:02:37.15
him out of that.
00:02:37.19\00:02:38.65
- because you
never knew him like that?
00:02:38.68\00:02:39.99
Now I never knew him like
that, my dad was always gentle
00:02:40.03\00:02:44.19
and kind and all that and
I never knew that he was in a
00:02:44.22\00:02:48.35
gang like that, angry and
all that so it is cool how
00:02:48.38\00:02:52.85
God brought him out of that.
00:02:52.89\00:02:54.83
- it really makes you
believe God can do anything.
00:02:56.12\00:02:58.71
God, can do anything He wants.
00:02:58.74\00:03:00.90
God brought him out so I am
glad I have a dad to protect me
00:03:00.94\00:03:07.93
and keep me safe, I'm glad
I have family because my dad
00:03:07.97\00:03:14.93
he's a good man and
I'm glad he met my mom.
00:03:14.97\00:03:19.03
You guys all sing as
a family right? - Yes!
00:03:22.49\00:03:25.69
I know while you were at
3ABN you guys went over and
00:03:25.73\00:03:29.44
some of you got to be on
Tiny Tots, you're coming back to
00:03:29.48\00:03:33.42
maybe be young Kids Time, I
mean that as to be fun to do
00:03:33.45\00:03:37.36
Ministry as a family.
00:03:37.40\00:03:38.98
- all of us know how to
sing and we go around singing in
00:03:39.01\00:03:43.12
places, that's cool.
00:03:43.16\00:03:45.13
I love that and I heard
you singing and you guys are so
00:03:45.16\00:03:49.42
good, so now I want to say,
dad, as you listen to your son,
00:03:49.46\00:03:53.68
Reginald, talking up
here, what did you think?
00:03:53.72\00:03:57.51
You know I can just see
how God is using him as well,
00:03:57.55\00:04:02.34
and I think that for my
life to be straightened up
00:04:02.37\00:04:07.69
was a path away for them,
for them to have a chance.
00:04:07.73\00:04:12.37
When the Lord changed me
for them, for all of this.
00:04:12.41\00:04:16.98
I don't know where He is
taking it, or where He is going,
00:04:17.02\00:04:20.64
but I know He is going
to do some great things.
00:04:20.68\00:04:23.87
- the Bible talks about
that your children are like
00:04:23.90\00:04:27.06
quivers, arrows in
a bow when you shoot
00:04:27.09\00:04:32.17
them out into the future.
00:04:32.20\00:04:33.83
You may never know where
they land, but for you I'm
00:04:33.86\00:04:36.65
looking at all these
beautiful children saying it is
00:04:36.69\00:04:39.45
going to be an
incredible adventure for
00:04:39.48\00:04:42.46
you to watch them.
00:04:42.49\00:04:44.32
They will never
have the life you've had.
00:04:44.36\00:04:47.27
I want you to just talk
not only to me or the people at
00:04:47.31\00:04:52.83
the café, but anybody that
is watching about having the
00:04:52.86\00:04:58.34
courage to step up
and change your life.
00:04:58.38\00:05:00.88
What kinds of things
do they need to remember?
00:05:00.92\00:05:03.14
To do and to turn over,
those kind of things, what would
00:05:03.18\00:05:06.29
you say to someone, what
are the benefits of doing that?
00:05:06.32\00:05:10.38
The thing is that if you
will just take a stand where
00:05:10.41\00:05:14.44
ever your at, one
thing is God loves you.
00:05:14.47\00:05:17.30
No matter what
you are going through,
00:05:17.34\00:05:20.10
or what you have
done, the Lord loves you.
00:05:20.14\00:05:22.28
All you have to do is
allow Him to work through you.
00:05:22.32\00:05:27.19
Be willing to allow God to
mold you, that is what I did.
00:05:27.23\00:05:32.24
Actually allowed Him to
work with me and that's why I am
00:05:32.28\00:05:37.91
telling... - gangsters
how about all the people that
00:05:37.95\00:05:42.16
are in gangs, or acting
out, having this incredible
00:05:42.19\00:05:47.35
struggle and you have to
tell them that God is bigger
00:05:47.38\00:05:52.50
than your
struggle. - that's right.
00:05:52.54\00:05:54.82
He's bigger than your struggle.
00:05:54.86\00:05:57.06
Do you think about where
you've been when you hold on to
00:05:57.09\00:06:00.99
your children, when you
get to pray with them at night,
00:06:01.03\00:06:04.90
and when you're doing family
worship, do you think about
00:06:04.93\00:06:08.17
what it is
really worth this day?
00:06:08.20\00:06:10.63
The fight that you've had?
00:06:10.66\00:06:13.17
This is something, all
this I have been wanting for so
00:06:13.20\00:06:17.90
long and now I am
starting to get it.
00:06:17.94\00:06:19.87
Just have a family and to
have someone to love you and
00:06:19.90\00:06:23.38
stuff like that, and I got
it, the Lord gave it to me.
00:06:23.41\00:06:26.85
Amen, I want to thank
everybody for being here.
00:06:26.89\00:06:30.11
It was amazing to
have you on the program.
00:06:30.14\00:06:32.14
Thank you for saying a few
things about your brother and
00:06:32.18\00:06:35.87
your dad, thanks for
giving us a little bit of your
00:06:35.90\00:06:38.35
testimony and I know it is
really tough for the kids to
00:06:38.38\00:06:40.80
sit so we are going to
go ahead and take a break,
00:06:40.83\00:06:42.98
but when we come back I
would like Reginald for you to
00:06:43.02\00:06:45.66
join me again and
Marquand if you can join me.
00:06:45.70\00:06:47.92
Okay, we'll be
right back, stay with us!
00:06:47.96\00:06:50.80
