Oh, this has been
an amazing journey.
00:00:01.36\00:00:04.13
How did you come back?
When did you come back, JD?
00:00:04.17\00:00:07.40
Well, of course,
00:00:07.44\00:00:08.77
the Holy Spirit's
working on you all the time.
00:00:08.80\00:00:10.27
Right.
00:00:10.31\00:00:11.64
And I just felt now is the time,
00:00:11.67\00:00:13.11
so in March of
2004, I was re-baptized.
00:00:13.14\00:00:16.64
'03. Did I say '04?
00:00:16.68\00:00:19.15
In 2003. And wonderful time.
00:00:19.18\00:00:23.08
Here again, Pastor Jim Graves
who we just fell in love with.
00:00:23.12\00:00:26.86
But what was really amazing,
Shelley and I have been blessed
00:00:26.89\00:00:29.89
with having a
great relationship.
00:00:29.92\00:00:31.93
From day one, I love you, honey,
00:00:31.96\00:00:33.90
I love you,
honey, I love you, honey.
00:00:33.93\00:00:36.26
And then, after...
00:00:36.30\00:00:37.90
We stayed here
probably five or six years,
00:00:37.93\00:00:41.44
and I was maturing in
the Lord, and Shelley says,
00:00:41.47\00:00:45.47
you know, "I love
you a thousand times
00:00:45.51\00:00:47.94
more than I ever
thought that I could love you
00:00:47.98\00:00:49.64
because now you are
the spiritual leader
00:00:49.68\00:00:51.75
of the family."
00:00:51.78\00:00:53.42
And so, to the women out there
00:00:53.45\00:00:57.05
that they are
currently carrying that burden,
00:00:57.09\00:01:00.69
being the spiritual
leader of the church
00:01:00.72\00:01:02.72
because where's the man
00:01:02.76\00:01:04.09
supposed to be the
priest of the family.
00:01:04.13\00:01:06.96
Just continue to pray.
00:01:07.00\00:01:08.76
Shelley's prayed
every day of her life,
00:01:08.80\00:01:10.80
and if the Lord can work
on me, He can work on anybody.
00:01:10.83\00:01:13.97
You know, it's just,
00:01:14.00\00:01:15.34
God is the God
of second chances,
00:01:15.37\00:01:17.94
perhaps the third,
the fourth, the fifth,
00:01:17.97\00:01:20.51
the thousandth chances,
00:01:20.54\00:01:22.31
you know, He's never
going to give up on you.
00:01:22.34\00:01:23.88
That's right.
00:01:23.91\00:01:25.25
And you should
never give up on Him.
00:01:25.28\00:01:28.08
I just want to say one thing,
00:01:28.12\00:01:29.45
it is such a
privilege to work here,
00:01:29.48\00:01:31.62
and it's such a privilege
to be able to speak for God,
00:01:31.65\00:01:35.42
and I'm so honored that
God chose us to come here,
00:01:35.46\00:01:39.23
we love you all.
00:01:39.26\00:01:40.60
And it is absolutely a
team, ain't that amazing?
00:01:40.63\00:01:42.46
When God called, He
didn't just call you,
00:01:42.50\00:01:45.67
you know, he called JD,
00:01:45.70\00:01:47.04
a very important role
what you do right now.
00:01:47.07\00:01:49.70
And I hear everywhere
we travel around the world,
00:01:49.74\00:01:52.44
JD Quinn's name comes up
probably as often as yours
00:01:52.47\00:01:55.81
because people
say, "I called JD.
00:01:55.84\00:01:58.08
I called the prayer
line, I talk with him.
00:01:58.11\00:02:00.28
He is just so kind.
00:02:00.32\00:02:01.65
He just helps me,
he encourages me."
00:02:01.68\00:02:03.55
And so, it's a
teamwork that what you're doing.
00:02:03.59\00:02:05.89
So again, we're so
thankful for both of you.
00:02:05.92\00:02:08.72
And, of course,
Yvonne, I hear that about you
00:02:08.76\00:02:11.33
when we travel that
you encourage people,
00:02:11.36\00:02:13.29
so we're here
today to encourage.
00:02:13.33\00:02:15.16
And so today,
00:02:15.20\00:02:16.53
if you have needs, you can call.
00:02:16.56\00:02:17.97
When you call the prayer line,
00:02:18.00\00:02:19.33
you'll know that JD or
one of the other folks here,
00:02:19.37\00:02:22.00
we care about you,
we're praying for you.
00:02:22.04\00:02:24.01
Our time is all gone for today,
but until we see you next time,
00:02:24.04\00:02:26.94
may the Lord richly bless you
00:02:26.98\00:02:28.31
abundantly more than
you could ever ask or think.
00:02:28.34\00:02:31.01
Amen.
00:02:31.05\00:02:32.38
