hello and welcome back to 3, A B
and today LIVE would then have
an incredible time. Yeah,
00:00:12.67\00:00:17.78
I'm hearing about Jesus and the
lives of people. But you know
what's amazing that God
00:00:17.78\00:00:23.75
can use us and he uses. That's
in spite of us. No one. We have
nothing good. We're
00:00:23.75\00:00:28.62
always filthy rags. Bible says
compared to to the Lord, but
he's willing to use in spite
00:00:28.62\00:00:35.63
of us. And he says, I-5 be
lifted up from this Earth will
draw men. so all the way we
00:00:35.63\00:00:40.70
need to do in our White says
this beautifully is this. She
says their own personal
00:00:40.70\00:00:44.61
testimonies are greatest asset.
Well, for people who say, well,
00:00:44.61\00:00:50.58
I can't give Bible studies.
We're learning that we can.
Thanks to you and thanks to you

for you. Yvonne, you had a good
00:00:59.12\00:01:02.79
time. >> You know that little
song brighten the corner where
you are. that's what I think
00:01:02.79\00:01:06.96
about with this. Because
wherever were planted, we can
brighten that corner. We can
00:01:06.96\00:01:11.60

everyone our sphere of
influence. It's so important

studies to. We have we

hand? Yeah, you're using
00:01:42.96\00:01:52.07
whats in your hand to share the
love of Jesus within your sphere
00:01:52.07\00:01:54.78

the song Lady Love Smith. One of
my favorite, our on all
00:06:33.25\00:06:37.73
the world. We've traveled to
with them too. Israel would bend
Australia. We've been how
00:06:37.73\00:06:47.17
many mean, I don't you name it
just about we travel together
and they always in Reggie that
00:06:47.17\00:06:52.67
they just love Jesus so much
that we will be in a restaurant
00:06:52.67\00:06:57.58
eating somewhere and and one
night we noticed she was gone.
They were closing the rest. Are
00:06:57.58\00:07:02.02
we looking for lady? And she was
in the kitchen because one of
the waitresses had same down
00:07:02.02\00:07:08.06
and she was talking to her about
Jesus some 8. So it kind of fits
00:07:08.06\00:07:11.86
in with we're all hearing and
here. So again, we're so glad
that you're here this hour past
00:07:11.86\00:07:18.70
market and then kind of turn out
like what you do want to go. You
kind of was a captain. So we're
00:07:18.70\00:07:23.00
just here supporting we want to
go and I hope it does speak ill
00:07:23.00\00:07:28.24
of me. But >> you know, one of
the things aside this extremely
important is the tie that we
00:07:28.24\00:07:34.45
have to the church. You know,
it's I became an organization
initially to get strength to
00:07:34.45\00:07:41.49
self-supporting ministers, they
could have a voice and they were
00:07:41.49\00:07:44.76
department of the Joint
conference until about early
1980's. And then the became a
00:07:44.76\00:07:49.36
division of the North American
division. The people are the
North American division. And I
00:07:49.36\00:07:54.67
don't take any time from these
gentlemen that are going to
share what happened in Poland
00:07:54.67\00:07:58.31
and home to. But there's a
statement I want to read. It's
in testimonies, volume 9, but
00:07:58.31\00:08:03.88
says the work of God in this
food can never be finished until
00:08:03.88\00:08:09.28
the men and women comprising all
membership. Raleigh to the loop.
And unite their efforts with
00:08:09.28\00:08:16.73
those of ministers and church
offices. And so we're going to
be going to see in this section
00:08:16.73\00:08:21.86
of the members in action is
seeing how that leadership and
its site came together just like
00:08:21.86\00:08:31.61
to alleviate since suffering.
And so we're going to hear from
Malkin from Brian and
00:08:31.61\00:08:37.08
hopefully Denzel and they're
just going to share with us some
stories. Okay. Then what
00:08:37.08\00:08:40.58
we're going to do is just bring
it around to why we do what we
do. What's the making?
00:08:40.58\00:08:45.35
A motivating force and tie that
into the 3 inches messages. I
00:08:45.35\00:08:50.76
think the very, very interesting
conversations so Time is yours.
Well, the 7th, they have a
00:08:50.76\00:08:59.73
>> is concerned about human As
we look at the world, we ask
ourselves the question, how
00:08:59.73\00:09:05.57
can we alleviate the suffering
of our world? I was interested
in the opening song that is
00:09:05.57\00:09:12.85
played on this program. You
know, I've we give our lives too
mend, broken people. And
00:09:12.85\00:09:18.89
that's really the message of
Christ. It's the message of the
Gospel. How do we reach
00:09:18.89\00:09:23.69
out in the brokenness of our
world and share Jesus? Recently
with the conflict in
00:09:23.69\00:09:30.67
the Ukraine. And I should
mention this that 7th, they have
minister concerned. For
00:09:30.67\00:09:34.27
every Russian mother, you lose a
son in that war. here is about
the fact that that's on
00:09:34.27\00:09:43.11
his We are concerned free
Ukrainian refugee. And, you
know, there have been 2.5
00:09:43.11\00:09:51.79
million refugees that have come
across the Polish border, but
500,000 that have come
00:09:51.79\00:09:57.73
across Hungarian border. And so
recently I was invited by the
president of the train's
00:09:57.73\00:10:07.37
European division said that
they have in us, which includes
00:10:07.37\00:10:11.61
hungry in Poland. With my wife,
Cheney to come to give
encouragement to our pastors,
00:10:11.61\00:10:15.28
encourage me refugees. Many of
our churches are open. These
people are displaced. They're
00:10:15.28\00:10:20.85
living in our churches and we're
feeding them 3 meals a day for
giving them food and our members
00:10:20.85\00:10:29.76
are just opening up their homes
with Christian love and many
people coming into their
00:10:29.76\00:10:33.63
homes. And so my wife and I were
invited to come just at that
moment. I was talking to
00:10:33.63\00:10:38.23
one of the S I lead ERs. And
they said to me, well, you know,
Pastor Mark, we too, are
00:10:38.23\00:10:43.00
planning to do something for
these refugees. These displaced
00:10:43.00\00:10:49.18
people and immediately because
of our relationship in the past.
We began talking about projects.
00:10:49.18\00:10:55.92
S I voted to print magazines of
hope and encouragement, both for
adults and children
00:10:55.92\00:11:04.33
in the Ukrainian language. The
Polish language, an Hungarian et
cetera. And we bonded
00:11:04.33\00:11:12.97
together Denso and Bryan
traveled with us every evening I
would preach a couple
00:11:12.97\00:11:19.41
messages at night. One in. And I
think we just came back God that
we were home 14 hours and
00:11:19.41\00:11:26.75
then we came out to 3 at the
much. We love you. Ha you know.
So every evening we're
00:11:26.75\00:11:34.62
in Poland, 5.30. >> I'm
preaching is translate to
polish. We have a short
00:11:34.62\00:11:41.13
break preaching again,
translated into Ukrainian and
then my wife was giving health
00:11:41.13\00:11:47.20
presentations on TV for them
in Poland. And then. >> We're
00:11:47.20\00:11:51.44
visiting refugees during the day
with Brian in visiting.
Sometimes we'd have groups of 40
00:11:51.44\00:11:57.35
that we would meet with and
share with them other times
personally and listening to
00:11:57.35\00:12:01.65
their heartbreaking stories in a
new Brian. We've got some
amazing stories. What you share
00:12:01.65\00:12:06.39
with us. >> I would like to
just have us play the video Hub
00:12:06.39\00:12:11.43
Springs to life in the U.S. Side
Ministry that helped with the
printing I think we we have
00:12:11.43\00:12:16.26
that clip. If we could just show
that to lay the groundwork and
00:12:16.26\00:12:19.60
then we can start telling some
stories. >> The situation in
Ukraine was a big surprise all
00:12:19.60\00:12:30.28
of us. We'll located in Poland,
the neighboring country.
Influenced by so many people,
00:12:30.28\00:12:38.02
refugees coming from Ukraine.
Almost 3 million people play
now. And as you can imagine,
00:12:38.02\00:12:43.86
they for Ukrainian league
pitcher rose very We wanted to
respond to this need. When the
00:12:43.86\00:12:52.40
last 3 weeks with 3 to 10, more
than copies. So the front line
median pay a good example
00:12:52.40\00:13:01.21
of this is that we can by mark
May and the Ukrainian and
Russian language. Well, the
00:13:01.21\00:13:10.92
same qualities reach especially
publication. Brad just for 10's
00:13:10.92\00:13:14.66
and makes plain the situation of
the world? And thank you to all
our sponsors and a site for
00:13:14.66\00:13:20.66
making this possible. >> And
that just illustrates to me some
00:13:20.66\00:13:28.94
of the miracles that were
happening even before this
crisis started, they were able
00:13:28.94\00:13:32.74
to stockpile paper. They've been
stockpiling pair for for the
last 12 months or more. They
00:13:32.74\00:13:38.31
have paper all over the Roundup.
Ross is that they don't normally
00:13:38.31\00:13:40.38
have normal. It's in a
warehouse. The Providence, Ali,
they just were impressed to
00:13:40.38\00:13:44.85
start getting as much paper as
they can. And now papers not
available now. Yes, hard to
00:13:44.85\00:13:49.32
get paper here in the United
States. Let alone in Poland, but
they're in a sign 2
00:13:49.32\00:13:58.00
brothers, Robert and Victor,
they come right early to assign.
00:13:58.00\00:14:00.07
It's a way that we were able to
partner with using Pastor Mark
in the materials he was able to
00:14:00.07\00:14:04.41
produce. They were able to
translate it into Russian and to
pull us into Ukraine. And
00:14:04.41\00:14:10.31
that's all over for children and
for adults and just talking to
00:14:10.31\00:14:16.69
refugees that are coming back.
They just can't get spiritual
material. This is picture that's
00:14:16.69\00:14:24.86
from the process of people, the
press than those magazines that
were being given to children
00:14:24.86\00:14:30.13
that we saw distributed
throughout Poland distributed
down and hungry, but also being
00:14:30.13\00:14:34.70
distributed new in Ukraine.
There are ministers supported by
churches with Ford. A look
00:14:34.70\00:14:41.84
at our just in one in Chicago
that donated the money for a The
church in Warsaw has now
00:14:41.84\00:14:48.05
purchased 10 downs that are
going into Ukraine taking
supplies, taking type of
00:14:48.05\00:14:53.82
pamphlets and then they bring
back refugees with them to the
church and in the church. 60
00:14:53.82\00:15:01.23
or more people are being housed
in the basement and some of the

even in the annex to the
sanctuary for. You can see the
betting packed stacked up in the
00:15:05.97\00:15:13.64
corners and the stack it up
during the day. And it's all

opportunity to just to meet with
the refugee after refugee and

just hear very compelling
stories. is at the 7th. They
haven't the seminary, which is
00:15:26.39\00:15:30.89
about 30 minutes outside of
Warsaw, where they've converted
classrooms into sleeping
00:15:30.89\00:15:35.76
quarters for children and
families. Most of the people
there are mothers with their
00:15:35.76\00:15:42.17
children as men had stayed
behind this was a picture down
in. I'm hungry customer. Can
00:15:42.17\00:15:53.35
you really got really spend some
time with the 2 boys and their
mother and then these
00:15:53.35\00:15:56.85
are the 2 girls actually, I'm
the mother behind and in front
as her sister and her
00:15:56.85\00:16:03.06
daughter. I'm their mother is
still back in Ukraine in the
service. And so just to see
00:16:03.06\00:16:11.07
how people were displaced, but
yet keeping their faith their
hope. What a cute little story
00:16:11.07\00:16:14.70
about these boys >> what we
saw was family separated and
00:16:14.70\00:16:23.11
mothers. As Brian said, Doctor
Brian coming across the border
themselves. Some of them 7
00:16:23.11\00:16:27.18
hours, some of them. 3 days,
some of them 2 weeks to get
across took to one family and
00:16:27.18\00:16:37.06
they talk to the children. They
said, you know, we stood for 7
hours in the cold, just
00:16:37.06\00:16:41.40
shaking, but the 2 boys in the
picture that you just saw these
little boys, one is 11
00:16:41.40\00:16:46.30
years old and they came with
nothing and they're sleeping in
one room in the church with
00:16:46.30\00:16:52.27
their mama. And so I said, did
you do when you're back home? He
said I love to play soccer.
00:16:52.27\00:16:59.01
I was on one of the Ukrainian
soccer teams, OK? So teeny an I
talk to Lisa took. Let's get
00:16:59.01\00:17:03.95
that boy, a soccer ball. So we
gave the pastors of money the
little boys la face just lit
00:17:03.95\00:17:12.46
up. You know, I think a soccer
but they come with nothing
traumatized bombs falling all
00:17:12.46\00:17:20.27
around the Bodies lying in the
streets and hearing the
explosions of But it's amazing
00:17:20.27\00:17:29.94
to see the outpouring of love of
7th day. It just the willingness
00:17:29.94\00:17:34.25
to go the second mile the 3rd
mile to to provide food to
provide clothing in one of the
00:17:34.25\00:17:40.82
churches we were in in Warsaw,
for example, they to craft
program with the children
00:17:40.82\00:17:45.19
could learn crafts during the
day they have to to programs for
the children and to see
00:17:45.19\00:17:50.67
this compassion. This Ministry
of Christ for people that are
have been displaced is really
00:17:50.67\00:17:58.81
remarkable. And it is so yeah, I
was just very impressed to see
how church members have
00:17:58.81\00:18:03.04
been opening up their homes for
sometimes 2, 3 or 4 families to
00:18:03.04\00:18:06.85
stay with them in their homes
are much smaller than ours. >>
Over over in the European
00:18:06.85\00:18:11.85
countries. So they're using the
church's. They're using their
homes, their housing
00:18:11.85\00:18:15.82
people, and they're doing it.
Cheerfully. It's easy to get
burned out. When you're
00:18:15.82\00:18:21.73
hearing these kind of stories
day in and day out. I have the
opportunity actually spend a
00:18:21.73\00:18:25.97
couple hours counseling with.
I'm one of the caretakers at the
church who's been just
00:18:25.97\00:18:34.01
giving him his wife just giving
their whole day and night just
00:18:34.01\00:18:37.85
to be with the refugees. He
actually suffering depression
and had been in the medical word
00:18:37.85\00:18:43.95
for 3 or 4 days, getting treated
for the overwhelming depression
from hearing the stories. I
00:18:43.95\00:18:47.19
felt bad that you we could we
can go in with her stories that
would just tear your
00:18:47.19\00:18:52.59
heart apart. But yeah, we can go
back to our hotel room and
ultimately we can come back to
00:18:52.59\00:18:56.30
United States. But the people in
Poland and hungry and the
surrounding countries, they're
00:18:56.30\00:19:00.80
living with us day after day
after day. The thing that I also
00:19:00.80\00:19:07.21
thought that was impressive. It
is there were actually some
Russian refuges Ukrainian
00:19:07.21\00:19:13.52
refugees and their meeting
together in the same church
worshipping together. Now that
00:19:13.52\00:19:18.22
some of oven to us and they're
also not of interest that have
been directed to that church.
00:19:18.22\00:19:20.76
There was a couple we
interviewed at the cemetery who
had. Driven past takes gone
00:19:20.76\00:19:28.30
through checkpoints, taken days
to drive across the country
their car, couldn't go any
00:19:28.30\00:19:33.13
farther. And then they were
actually picked up by a van and
taken to the Adventist Church in
00:19:33.13\00:19:37.04
the loop over on the western
part of Ukraine. They spent 3
weeks there. The people in that
00:19:37.04\00:19:40.58
church. Give them blankets. They
give them food. They gave them
closing. And then after
00:19:40.58\00:19:47.75
that can get the right papers
together, it was safe enough.
They brought him across the
00:19:47.75\00:19:49.82
border in the other refugees
that the oven to seminary.
They're not out to us, but she
00:19:49.82\00:19:58.29
spoke pretty good English since
he said. I just want you to know
00:19:58.29\00:20:01.76
that the people of your church
are like kind of like, 0, zones.
But she just said there is those
00:20:01.76\00:20:09.00
they have Mister to us. She
didn't know anything about dozen
before that. But her heart was
00:20:09.00\00:20:14.48
very, very touched. was just the
incredible story and story after
story like that. There's
00:20:14.48\00:20:17.05
one that I think a story that
Denzel could tell about a lady
who spent 21 days. House down
00:20:17.05\00:20:24.95
in the basement of one of the
buildings. 2 of them outside of
Kim. I'm not able to come
00:20:24.95\00:20:29.36
up not able to see the sun. I'm
not knowing whether it was night
or day. No electricity,
00:20:29.36\00:20:36.06
heat or powers can just see her
breath. She was there with 160
of her neighbors. And when
00:20:36.06\00:20:44.67
the bombs start falling, the
neighbors are come are the
quarter where she was and we
00:20:44.67\00:20:47.04
want you to pray for us. God is
with you and we feel safe when
you're biased and she
00:20:47.04\00:20:52.68
would actually get Bible
studies. He would read the Bible
in the morning and read
00:20:52.68\00:20:56.02
the Bible in the evening. But
she talked about the sound of to
talk that Jesus was coming
00:20:56.02\00:20:59.75
again. She is being bombarded
her life's been turned upside
down. Her apartment building
00:20:59.75\00:21:04.16
has been levels. He has nothing
but a little sets. All. And
she's yet what this
00:21:04.16\00:21:08.46
interior neighbors. It was just
incredible. And probably it does
well as on does. It
00:21:08.46\00:21:12.30
was particularly touched by the
story because we were able to
talk to her about what her
00:21:12.30\00:21:17.07
knees were and maybe does look
uncertain. The rest of that
story here. Thank you, Brian.
00:21:17.07\00:21:21.34
>> And no food. >> You can hear
me. yeah, it was a very touching
00:21:21.34\00:21:27.32
story listening to this lady. Be
able to Bible studies to share
the Bible to pray with the
00:21:27.32\00:21:36.16
people and people literally
they're in. They were so scared.
People die down there
00:21:36.16\00:21:40.96
from heart It was so scared.
They were so scared. But the
thing that impressed me the
00:21:40.96\00:21:45.10
most is I was so touched by her
ministry and what you've been
doing, I asked or is
00:21:45.10\00:21:49.07
there anything you need? And she
said that, sir, that's not right
there. The lady there,
00:21:49.07\00:21:56.38
lady there. She says that
there's is there anything you
need? And she said she looked
00:21:56.38\00:21:59.21
at me and she goes, you know, I
got a plane ticket. I'm going to
go into groups, go to
00:21:59.21\00:22:04.35
my daughters to live with my
daughter. But what I really like
to do is I really like to
00:22:04.35\00:22:10.16
help their ministry in Brazil
because that's where she's
going. Could you help with the
00:22:10.16\00:22:13.80
ministry and Brazil? And I was
so touched needless to we help
their ministry and Brazil. was
00:22:13.80\00:22:22.54
such a blessing to be able to
see with that. The the of these
people in the caring
00:22:22.54\00:22:28.04
that they had. people is you
when I asked one per one group,
I said how many people,
00:22:28.04\00:22:35.55
how many people are seeing
your home and he goes, everybody
00:22:35.55\00:22:42.12
refugees in their own. We're all
taking care, the and they're
giving all they can. You know,
00:22:42.12\00:22:49.26
we went to their their where
their where their plane, the
food, they don't have a lot
00:22:49.26\00:22:53.03
themselves. know, they need
help, but financially is that
we're able to help them somewhat
00:22:53.03\00:22:57.17
a little bit anyway into helping
them with their financial needs.
But the panel and talk about
00:22:57.17\00:23:01.94
is what the literature is. One
of the things that we talked
about. When asked over and
00:23:01.94\00:23:06.95
over again, what are their
needs? They really said they
really need. As we know, the
00:23:06.95\00:23:11.72
breakup of the family is Pastor
Finley and brightest spoke
about, but they also
00:23:11.72\00:23:16.36
their spiritual And so we're
brainstorming what we can do to
help. And we came up with
00:23:16.36\00:23:21.60
that idea of a children's book.
We have this idea executive
00:23:21.60\00:23:29.80
committee. We're talking about.
And Mark Sister, Sandra,
actually, there's a picture of
00:23:29.80\00:23:32.07
Jesus still cares. She we called
her on an evening and she wrote
the script during the evening
00:23:32.07\00:23:39.38
and it was completed the next
Then we talked to Justin Lars
and he printed 15 new art
00:23:39.38\00:23:45.85
pieces, including the cover and
did less than 2 weeks. So in
less than 3 weeks, we're
00:23:45.85\00:23:51.16
able to print it. These
children's books that we were
reprinted we printed 70,000
00:23:51.16\00:23:57.77
copies of it so far. We just OK
yesterday to print another
50,000 because they going out.
00:23:57.77\00:24:06.84
and then we also work with
Pastor Finley Ana, on the
program. You can see the
00:24:06.84\00:24:12.98
magazine for the adults on that
side. And that is a to hope
again. there we know are
00:24:12.98\00:24:24.13
pretty more of that polish, into
Hungarian it to you created and
00:24:24.13\00:24:30.73
also into Russian. Yeah. So
reaching all the people all
those in that. What he mentioned
00:24:30.73\00:24:38.41
to you saw a living springs is
done a great job with their
pretty neatly printed. They got
00:24:38.41\00:24:44.58
paper had tied the door, really
bless their ministry and they're
really committed team that is
00:24:44.58\00:24:48.35
really doing working. They're
working 24 6 to get that done.
You can see some of the
00:24:48.35\00:24:54.29
pictures of what they're doing
there and they have printed the
as you mentioned over 95
00:24:54.29\00:25:03.10
9 million, 500 odd pages so far.
And yesterday are going to print
an additional 6,500
00:25:03.10\00:25:10.01
plus pages. That River bridge in
the next week or were really
blessed. That or is
00:25:10.01\00:25:15.98
that family has come together
given to this project. We want
to thank each and every one of
00:25:15.98\00:25:18.85
them. And we're you know, we're
limited by the funds that we get
00:25:18.85\00:25:25.55
to Brett we can print more. One
thing we have phone from this
area is people are coming into
00:25:25.55\00:25:32.39
this country. Their stand for 5
days, maybe 3 days and then they
go off to visit other people. So
00:25:32.39\00:25:38.37
there's a Ukrainian population
in Spain. There's one in
Germany. There's what all the
00:25:38.37\00:25:44.84
major cities throughout Europe.
So as a result of that, we're
working with our division to
00:25:44.84\00:25:49.78
be able to get those those
papers to the Ukrainians and to
the in their where they're
00:25:49.78\00:25:57.89
located throughout Europe. And
so we're really excited about
this project is really great.
00:25:57.89\00:26:04.13
Working together. You know, I
really love firmly believe that
we are able to from a
00:26:04.13\00:26:09.26
concept to completion in less
than 3 weeks. I mean, that's
just amazing. Because the Lord
00:26:09.26\00:26:15.44
and ever he multiplies we were
together for him. So it's a real
blessing to see the work
00:26:15.44\00:26:19.41
been going on. Not over there.
And we need to pray for a the
war we need to create for both
00:26:19.41\00:26:27.65
sides of the war because people
are hurting all both sides of
conflict in and, you
00:26:27.65\00:26:34.76
know, we just want them to
know Jesus and know that there's
00:26:34.76\00:26:38.49
something better coming very,
very soon him. And now I've
gotten to know our viewers
00:26:38.49\00:26:44.43
pretty well over the >> Nearly
38 years. >> And right now you
00:26:44.43\00:26:49.24
set this thing up there. People
at home saying how can I And
maybe there's people who are
00:26:49.24\00:26:54.11
impressed. You're sitting home
right now and you feel like
maybe the Lord wants me to to
00:26:54.11\00:26:58.08
give some money to help in the
printing more help and and the
overall work of the God of
00:26:58.08\00:27:03.35
evangelism. And so I can ask as
president of uh, yes, I may be.
What about the folks that
00:27:03.35\00:27:10.89
are watching right now? If they
want to make a donation? Who did

00:28:07.15\00:28:13.39
Well, we were in. >> Ukraine,
Poland and Hungary with the deep
00:28:13.39\00:28:21.73
hunger to spiritual hunger of
people and the desire to have a
new life to my wife t needed
00:28:21.73\00:28:28.77
health programs each evening and
hungry. those programs was so
well received the in then I
00:28:28.77\00:28:36.51
preached. They were sent via
streaming and we had 20 30,000
views. Scores of people in
00:28:36.51\00:28:43.75
Ukraine. We were translated into
Russian. Into Chinese because
Us-chinese contingent
00:28:43.75\00:28:50.79
there earlier in 2, the
Ukrainian language into
Hungarian polish and to see
00:28:50.79\00:28:57.83
the spiritual hunger and the
desire to know Christ and there
was one pastor's wife
00:28:57.83\00:29:04.77
had been his pastor. Who? The
pastor stayed to minister to his
flock and he stayed
00:29:04.77\00:29:13.95
because his son could not
believe he was not of a
sufficient age where he was
00:29:13.95\00:29:16.99
able to leave thing. Ukrainian
government head kept all.
There's a picture of the yeah.
00:29:16.99\00:29:24.76
Yeah. They had kept all young
men between 16 and 60 had to
stay in the country. So this
00:29:24.76\00:29:31.10
pastor chose to stay with his 19
year-old son in the midst of a
war zone she came out
00:29:31.10\00:29:36.67
with her other 2 children. As we
talked to her. The thing that
she said is just so long
00:29:36.67\00:29:43.18
to be with my family. I just
long to be together. And so I
thought about that Russian and
00:29:43.18\00:29:51.22
Ukrainian eastern European
Hungarian and Polish. We're all
part of the family God is
00:29:51.22\00:29:56.62
made of one blood donations. And
I thought today's the ultimate
00:29:56.62\00:30:02.33
day when all of Christ children
would be home. have that longing
for home in our hearts. Yes, and
00:30:02.33\00:30:09.24
I know that tonight, even our
viewers, we have that long for
home. A place with no more
00:30:09.24\00:30:14.64
sickness are suffering are hard
their death, where war will be
no more. And that's
00:30:14.64\00:30:17.78
the whole conclusion of the
Bible. And as we travel together
with Denzel and with
00:30:17.78\00:30:24.99
the Bryan and do with my wife,
that was our our major mission,
our primary mission.
00:30:24.99\00:30:30.29
We listened a lot. We met with
groups of refugees. We met with
the individuals week
00:30:30.29\00:30:38.87
literally cried with them in our
hearts were broken, would go
back to our room every
00:30:38.87\00:30:41.20
night would say what
devastation. But our major goal
was to give them hope,
00:30:41.20\00:30:48.84
that there's hope something
beyond this world that beyond
the problems of life and the
00:30:48.84\00:30:52.75
difficulties of life in the
heart aches of life, there's a
crisis that wants to be with
00:30:52.75\00:30:57.29
you Christ. It will strengthen
you to every trial. But in
Jesus, who's coming Jesus, who
00:30:57.29\00:31:04.06
will come to solve the problems
of this society. And he is the
00:31:04.06\00:31:09.36
great Prince of peace. And we
pray for peace. We long for
peace. Our hearts are broken
00:31:09.36\00:31:15.60
over war. But we know that the
ultimate piece is going to come
when Jesus, the prince of peace
00:31:15.60\00:31:21.31
returns. the thing I think I
came home thinking, is that
going through a crisis like what
00:31:21.31\00:31:24.88
these people have done? >>
Either strengthens your faith
that reveals how deep it
00:31:24.88\00:31:31.35
or it can weaken your faith. But
it reveals your faith. >> One of
00:31:31.35\00:31:35.16
the leaders of the church and
hungry stated to us that, you
know, one of the things that the
00:31:35.16\00:31:42.36
refugees are doing is
encouraging our members and
surrounding countries to realize
00:31:42.36\00:31:45.67
that they need to have their
faith grounded. They're actually
inspiring the churches that
00:31:45.67\00:31:49.57
are taking care of them to have
a deeper relationship with Jesus
00:31:49.57\00:31:54.11
as these people have had nothing
else to hang on to. But Jesus,
they have no earthly
00:31:54.11\00:31:59.51
possessions, maybe us out. So
maybe a few. This is a clothing.
And it's just before we
00:31:59.51\00:32:04.85
transition. There's another way
that people can amen. They
haven't us medical vandalism.
00:32:04.85\00:32:11.19

00:32:39.79\00:32:44.36
the other day I heard you right.
>> That really have thought
about it. Numerous times. You
00:32:44.36\00:32:49.06
said their churches. Removing
taking out their seats and
taking out and everything in
00:32:49.06\00:32:59.91
order to bring people in to help
them like that's what church
really is. that's what
00:32:59.91\00:33:06.05
the loving Jay-Z is. The living
Jay-Z's remains not so we well,
let's don't disturb
00:33:06.05\00:33:11.22
our pews disturb or, you know,
our whole system in our savage
00:33:11.22\00:33:14.92
school classrooms. >> But you
say over there that there you
saw people, let's move them out.
00:33:14.92\00:33:17.96
We've got to bring people in.
That's to me is rightly
representing juice. You know,
00:33:17.96\00:33:24.90
it's interesting story union
president in a poll and told us.
>> That there are churches in
00:33:24.90\00:33:31.24
the Ukraine Adventist churches
that become refugee sites. So
there are so many refugees
00:33:31.24\00:33:37.25
that had one church, a number of
churches, in fact, they had to
move the pews out. As you
00:33:37.25\00:33:41.45
said, the refugees came in and
the members then met in homes on
Sabbath, right. You know,
00:33:41.45\00:33:49.96
I've got one amazing story about
the Budapest Central Church that
00:33:49.96\00:33:56.60
church is taking in refugees, of
course, and we don't call them
refugees. And so we call them
00:33:56.60\00:34:02.34
because these are our guests.
You know, these are our guests.
The God sent Yeah, OK, I want to
00:34:02.34\00:34:06.64
take you back to 1943. Second
World War. The Budapest Central
Church today is taking in
00:34:06.64\00:34:13.65
refugees. But during the second
World War. Housed Jewish
individuals that were
00:34:13.65\00:34:21.49
fleeing from the Nazis regime.
It has a large plaque on the
wall. It's been awarded by
00:34:21.49\00:34:27.13
Israel and there's a tree
planted for the pastor of that
church. So he hid these. Jews
00:34:27.13\00:34:34.57
in the Baptists tree and covered
it up with the board. He hid
them in the recesses of
00:34:34.57\00:34:43.31
the church. So they told us the
story. One day he's preaching
00:34:43.31\00:34:50.39
and 2 SS soldiers came in with a
German Shepherd on Sabbath
morning to look for these Jews.
00:34:50.39\00:34:56.49
So he's preaching. He walked out
of the pope that he said, how
dare you bring that dog into the
00:34:56.49\00:35:06.20
house of the Lord. Turned around
and walked Haha. So this is this
spirit. is this spirit of God's
00:35:06.20\00:35:13.31
people then and hold this for
Jesus, storm beautiful. And, you
know, I think this is just
00:35:13.31\00:35:20.68
such you can go on and on with
all these stories. >> I think
00:35:20.68\00:35:25.89
the question arises, why are we
doing what we're doing? What is
your we talked about it together
00:35:25.89\00:35:33.80
and, you know, as I mentioned at
the beginning, history is so
important. And I was
00:35:33.80\00:35:38.23
discussing past month, by the
way, I love this man. He is he's
what I call my wing man.
00:35:38.23\00:35:46.47
And so I'm just go through the
sitting next to me to be tonight
is just a blessing.
00:35:46.47\00:35:51.61
But he's my official mentor. And
I just really a pretty slow for
past a But, you know,
00:35:51.61\00:35:57.92
history is important and windy.
Read the story. The history of s
00:35:57.92\00:36:02.86
I. >> What sometimes does not
get told and I think speaks to
what you're talking about is
00:36:02.86\00:36:06.16
the gospel that moved and they
met. In October of 18. 88. After
the General Conference
00:36:06.16\00:36:15.47
session again attended that
session and they became friends
through Ellen White
00:36:15.47\00:36:21.84
and they met in her home and she
taught them the message of
Russian spy And if you read
00:36:21.84\00:36:30.12
the book Medicine goes beautiful
farm. Which is about is I his
ship s I. There are
00:36:30.12\00:36:36.19
12 references in there to that,
right? Just by faith and a That
Joel Conference knee.
00:36:36.19\00:36:42.46
And it's interesting how they
attributed the success of their
ministry. As we know the
00:36:42.46\00:36:49.74
E fathered at least 50 units
different self-supporting
stations around the whole
00:36:49.74\00:36:54.58
country. Why? Because they had,
as they described that light of
00:36:54.58\00:37:01.15
that message of righteousness by
faith. Khweis is behind them,
guiding the book begins that way
00:37:01.15\00:37:08.62
and it ends that way. So there
was something it wasn't. And
when you see the the the the
00:37:08.62\00:37:13.70
impact of the work that they
did, something was guiding them.
It was that the Holy Spirit was
00:37:13.70\00:37:19.47
put out at that time and that 3
angels messages, which we're
told is the message of
00:37:19.47\00:37:27.34
justification by faith and
Verity was what guided them. And
so as we transition, we're
00:37:27.34\00:37:31.55
going to have kind of a little
conversation about what is it
about the gospel that makes us
00:37:31.55\00:37:40.19
want to do even more and more
and more for Jesus Christ. What
is it? And so we're going
00:37:40.19\00:37:44.96
to have that discussion in past.
Mock will. We'll kind of lead us
00:37:44.96\00:37:48.76
in that. And it's going to be
amazing conversation. You know,
I read a statement earlier
00:37:48.76\00:37:55.60
today. In included one of the
messages I preached here on
3ABN. >> From David Livingston,
00:37:55.60\00:38:04.18
great missionary to Africa. You
know, for many, many years
missionary doctor, he told
00:38:04.18\00:38:06.82
about the fact that people would
come to him and say Doctor
Livingston, this is
00:38:06.82\00:38:11.49
such a sacrifice for you to go
to Africa. And his comment was
I've never made a sacrifice.
00:38:11.49\00:38:18.16
When I think about the sacrifice
of Jesus, the and I think for
00:38:18.16\00:38:22.73
me, one of the things that the
trip has done is reinforced in
my mind. The reality of Second
00:38:22.73\00:38:30.71
Corinthians chapter as AnM. The
scripture says that the first 14
for the love of Christ
00:38:30.71\00:38:43.39
constrains us. That word
constrains, of course, means
prompts motivates The love
00:38:43.39\00:38:48.82
Christ compels it's a very
strong word. You know, it
compels us forward. And so to
00:38:48.82\00:38:56.43
me, the motivation for all
witness. Is the sacrifice of
Christ on Calvary's That Christ
00:38:56.43\00:39:04.04
is redeemed to me by his grace.
I'm a child of God adopted into
the family of gaunt. And
00:39:04.04\00:39:09.34
if Christ is stunned that for
me, his love motivates me to
reach out and touch somebody
00:39:09.34\00:39:16.52
else with the gospel. So I think
you have to say always that the
00:39:16.52\00:39:19.82
cross is the major motivator for
with this and the cross
motivates us. Lead others to the
00:39:19.82\00:39:28.83
Christ that we know when we know
Christ his love resound set our
hearts overflows from our hearts
00:39:28.83\00:39:36.14
that touch others, Brian. That's
Yeah. One. >> When this even
00:39:36.14\00:39:43.98
this crisis began in Ukraine,
that many of us felt like why
are people doing this? And I
00:39:43.98\00:39:47.02
begin to realize, you know, I
just started praying for the
leaders on both sides. God use
00:39:47.02\00:39:55.12
Daniel to rich the beacon as
or who was conquering his people
00:39:55.12\00:39:59.09
and causing displacement of
families. Just like what's going
on now and then. Yeah, those
00:39:59.09\00:40:04.13
slaves that were taking their
said Brett Knese Second-and-goal
and Daniel himself had the
00:40:04.13\00:40:07.00
opportunity to witness. God was
able to take somebody who was
the conqueror of the
00:40:07.00\00:40:12.31
world, put him out to pasture,
so to speak, to learn of him. 2
at the very end of his life,
00:40:12.31\00:40:19.01
he could testify that God was
the true God just begin to
realize that I shouldn't be
00:40:19.01\00:40:27.49
having a girl, my heart toward
what anyone does. I need to be
praying for all people. I need
00:40:27.49\00:40:33.46
to those patients that are less
than desirable as Jesus died for
them. Yeah, I need to
00:40:33.46\00:40:39.93
see those people that are
suffering eastern Europe. Jesus
died for every last one
00:40:39.93\00:40:43.27
of them. considering what Jesus
gave up. All the heavily rounds
to come in to rescue
00:40:43.27\00:40:49.51
me. How can I not put my
resources and my time my working
time, my vacation time
00:40:49.51\00:40:59.92
all my time to be doing has
worked to reach others. Then
that I had open with us tech
00:40:59.92\00:41:05.03
stuff for us do. That would be
the perfect tux because that
toughens up the love of Christ
00:41:05.03\00:41:10.80
come tells us the low for him.
And that's really what the
message of rushed us by faith
00:41:10.80\00:41:18.07
that came to our church over 100
years ago. And did it inspired?
00:41:18.07\00:41:24.88
Again in Southern want to begin
ministries that have had other
ministries pop up all around the
00:41:24.88\00:41:29.95
world as a result, it's what
motivated listeners to go all
around the world. I'm convinced
00:41:29.95\00:41:35.06
more than ever that God wants to
bring that message. The message
of Christ and his right. Just
00:41:35.06\00:41:40.00
this back to our church in this
very day that I have high hopes
00:41:40.00\00:41:44.40
for the general conference
session were delegates are
coming for all around the world
00:41:44.40\00:41:49.10
that this has to be a corporate
process that we as a church are
praying for the outpouring of
00:41:49.10\00:41:54.24
the latter am. And I believe
that looking at the events that
are happening right now now is
00:41:54.24\00:41:58.78
the time that God wants to pour
out his holy spirit and I would
invite every viewer,
00:41:58.78\00:42:05.02
everyone to begin praying that
God would be able to do that in
our day. Miss that. Right
00:42:05.02\00:42:11.66
away. And so they have really
great hopes for what's about to
happen as we come together
00:42:11.66\00:42:16.23
as a church. God wants to do
something powerful and blessing
of God is on the go.
00:42:16.23\00:42:21.20
That's right. Says Go ye into
all the world. And I can tell
from H one. And then Dylan,
00:42:21.20\00:42:24.37
Donna. >> And everybody
that that that's Mark said. Of
00:42:24.37\00:42:28.48
course, it goes back to the
cross. But what privilege. It
is. An honor and opportunity to
00:42:28.48\00:42:35.42
be able to witness for the Lord.
And think as we said earlier,
that he uses this in spite you
00:42:35.42\00:42:38.69
know, >> as we think about
the crisis in the world today,
00:42:38.69\00:42:46.13
this world is on very, very
shaky footing. look at the
economy of the world. many
00:42:46.13\00:42:51.73
economists are predicting that
there will be some very dire
consequences in the future.
00:42:51.73\00:42:56.37
You look at the natural
disasters that are taking place
around the world, the
00:42:56.37\00:43:02.18
uncertainty of political affairs
in the world, but conflicts the
00:43:02.18\00:43:06.41
wars. When you look at all of
that, a COVID and the
devastation that it has caused
00:43:06.41\00:43:14.19
in the And you begin to look at
all that and you begin to say we
are on the knife edge of
00:43:14.19\00:43:20.20
eternity. and that this is a
time when the hearts of men and
women are being opened by the
00:43:20.20\00:43:25.23
spirit. And it's a time when as
we are praying as a church and
asking God to fill us with his
00:43:25.23\00:43:35.11
spirit because I'm convinced
that God can something through
us only when he does something
00:43:35.11\00:43:40.95
to us. You he can only do
something with us when he does
something for us and God's
00:43:40.95\00:43:49.72
problem is not more earthquakes,
more famines, more wars. That's
not cause problems. God's
00:43:49.72\00:43:55.03
problem is Hollywood. Does he
develop a people? Who are so
passionate about his love. So
00:43:55.03\00:44:03.20
charmed by his So motivated by
the living Christ that they
sacrifice their all to go out
00:44:03.20\00:44:12.38
and share the cost of a
man. That is the real issue that
00:44:12.38\00:44:18.55
we're facing >> And, you know,
as you're saying, that pass to
mock, you know, we have the 3
00:44:18.55\00:44:21.92
inches messages and the second
is 2 of the bubble fallen and
then revelation says come out of
00:44:21.92\00:44:29.36
the bubble also come out of her.
My people, my husband piece to
00:44:29.36\00:44:34.67
summon a few weeks ago. Your
church. I made an incredibly 2
very important points. One of
00:44:34.67\00:44:43.21
which is. Got most difficult
problem to time with what you're
seeing is not necessary to have
00:44:43.21\00:44:47.55
people come out of Babylon. But
to get and his own and that
really struck me ties to the
00:44:47.55\00:44:55.19
world that things of this world,
our strong. Yeah, I like my come
foods up. admit it, you and
00:44:55.19\00:45:02.83
when talk about a tent, I think
right. you know, but he's
calling us to something
00:45:02.83\00:45:10.64
like he called. >> So let him
again. And they looked at that
00:45:10.64\00:45:16.51
dry, place that they said was a
stinking and he called them to
do something. There and just
00:45:16.51\00:45:22.82
getting that out of getting
Babylon out of us. The other
thing is if we look back in
00:45:22.82\00:45:27.39
history that what made little
battle on for its very
interesting battle on Phil
00:45:27.39\00:45:33.80
Live 2 about October. 12, a
October 7. I think NBC was the
day of atonement and we're
00:45:33.80\00:45:46.37
living in that time and going is
called his people. To submit to
00:45:46.37\00:45:52.75
him to be drawn by the cross and
have him do that work of
cleansing in U.S.. Bush will be
00:45:52.75\00:45:59.02
in a bubble but a lot to full
use waiting as mock said, Basta
Mock said. Not for more
00:45:59.02\00:46:05.59
earthquakes, more wars. He's
waiting for a clinched people
who reflect his character and
00:46:05.59\00:46:10.60
just do his his buildings. And
so, you know, that's one of the
things that motivated us as
00:46:10.60\00:46:15.50
we've talked with, the isn't
shared over the years that the
Gospel, it just come so much
00:46:15.50\00:46:21.24
clear night. I'm the least of
all that the Apostle tell you
that right now, the Lord has
00:46:21.24\00:46:25.45
so much work to do in me, but
praise the Lord. He's promised
that he will finish. That was
00:46:25.45\00:46:31.95
she's begun. So I I'm hopeful
for myself. so so before battle
in Falls, the first
00:46:31.95\00:46:37.83
Angeles method is the
everlasting gospel. >> And
that's part of what
00:46:37.83\00:46:43.63
this message of Christ in his
races. This it's the everlasting
00:46:43.63\00:46:46.20
gospel, the gospel that tells us
that beforetime even begin the
father and the son class 3rd,
00:46:46.20\00:46:52.24
his together in a pledge that
they were going to save man no
matter what it costs themselves.
00:46:52.24\00:46:58.55
That tells us that God loves us
more than he loved. God loves us
more than he loves himself. He's
00:46:58.55\00:47:05.12
willing that he should not exist
so that we could have eternal
life if we just can
00:47:05.12\00:47:11.33
understand that in realize that
at the very close of time, God
00:47:11.33\00:47:16.13
is looking for people who will
give that everlasting gospel.
People. Not everybody is going
00:47:16.13\00:47:20.64
to have to live in a tent. If
you got of. I'm and I'm
impressed with Hebrews. Chapter
00:47:20.64\00:47:27.54
11 that came are able of the
very short life. The unit can
never saw deaf. Some one around
00:47:27.54\00:47:34.85
kids having no homes, others,
I'm like. Solomon and David had
beautiful homes were not all
00:47:34.85\00:47:42.29
called to the exact same thing.
But we're all call and God is
going to use us and God
00:47:42.29\00:47:47.56
is going to use every aside
member in their walk of life.
Some of them are going to live
00:47:47.56\00:47:54.90
healthy lives. Some are going to
suffer cancer and some are going
to die. But doing that,
00:47:54.90\00:47:59.77
they're going to testify for God
and whatever worked round
therein. Some are going to go
00:47:59.77\00:48:04.65
overseas. Some are going to be
missing or is right here. oppose
like to say that you're
00:48:04.65\00:48:10.65
either a missing this and and
you might be a missionary right
00:48:10.65\00:48:15.19
here in the United States. You
might be a missionary. >> Right
now in a war zone in
00:48:15.19\00:48:19.13
Ukraine, you might be a
missionary in Africa but got
his. But God is or ever we are
00:48:19.13\00:48:27.07
planted to be missionaries for
him. might be in It might be RV.
But if God is calling you
00:48:27.07\00:48:35.28
answer the call. This is the
time the God leads people to
give the everlasting you know,
00:48:35.28\00:48:38.58
to follow up on that. Not only
just got call us. >> But God
00:48:38.58\00:48:45.92
gifts us for the whole And so I
know there are many viewers here
wondering what can I do for
00:48:45.92\00:48:52.86
Jesus? Well, how can I become
actively involved? And that's
the spirit of a S a the spirit
00:48:52.86\00:48:57.57
of a s I is taking Christ to
your marketplace. We first begin
by praying that God will lead
00:48:57.57\00:49:04.81
somebody into our life. That we
can share his love with. We
begin praying for souls. We
00:49:04.81\00:49:12.25
write down the name of the
neighbor, the name of the sun,
the name of a daughter. We say
00:49:12.25\00:49:16.82
God open the opportunity for me
to begin to share with that
person. And as the Lord
00:49:16.82\00:49:21.72
impress issue, it may be to
bring a loaf of bread, homemade
bread. on how to make
00:49:21.72\00:49:28.90
it come to my But >> a loaf of
bread into a man with soup whose
00:49:28.90\00:49:36.34
wife's in the hospital. You know
that the word may have pressured
to go cut some widows, grass.
00:49:36.34\00:49:39.54
The Lord may impression to
something private. >> It may be
00:49:39.54\00:49:44.95
given a book. It may be a It may
be to give a Bible study in
maybe to get involved in a
00:49:44.95\00:49:49.25
health ministry. It may be to
get involved in youth ministry.
But as we begin praying, the
00:49:49.25\00:49:57.46
spirit of God impress our heart
with what he wants us to do. And
there's somebody that God is
00:49:57.46\00:50:03.80
going to lead. You to touch with
his grace. There's somebody that
00:50:03.80\00:50:09.84
God is going to lead. You
personally do to be involved in
witness. And the reason we
00:50:09.84\00:50:16.11
witness it's not simply to reach
somebody else. But it's for the
spirit of God to work in because
00:50:16.11\00:50:24.05
witnessing starves selfishness
to death a month. God's big
problem is the fallen nature of
00:50:24.05\00:50:31.19
the human heart and move. And so
as we begin to pray and you
know, you always ask what is the
00:50:31.19\00:50:35.90
motivation of a program like
this? Why do we do it too? And I
think to me, one of the
00:50:35.90\00:50:39.13
reasons we do programs like
this. Is to provide
opportunities for other
00:50:39.13\00:50:46.27
people, lay people to see active
involvement of the lay people
from a s I and they see
00:50:46.27\00:50:51.71
the spiritual life of other
laypeople. And they say, you
know what? I'm reaching out
00:50:51.71\00:50:58.25
for something more. I want
something more fun for with
Jesus in my life and they get
00:50:58.25\00:51:02.46
actively involved. 2 came in. >>
And the beauty of it and what
I'm hearing and it hurt
00:51:02.46\00:51:07.86
all evening is that you can't
give what you don't have this
right and course at first
00:51:07.86\00:51:14.00
Angel fear of God and give glory
to him. Stall about worship. So
00:51:14.00\00:51:19.31
S I involvement because if we're
not involved in evangelism,
we're just worried about me
00:51:19.31\00:51:24.41
myself. And so joining a s I
saying what others are doing and
sometimes been encouraged and
00:51:24.41\00:51:30.05
maybe feel like you they headed
this way is so that we can think
about somebody besides and that
00:51:30.05\00:51:36.16
we literally as you begin to
witness, you know, and you see
God working in you and through
00:51:36.16\00:51:41.46
you in spite of the it's a very
it's like I want to do this
again. When Mark we have
00:51:41.46\00:51:47.57
Yeah, I want to give quick test
to be that involves all of us.
00:51:47.57\00:51:50.57
>> Just to speak to the power of
that. We in his messages as as
when we understand it. Has
00:51:50.57\00:51:57.28
that message of Christ in his
righteousness, we all were with
past affiliate in our
00:51:57.28\00:52:03.82
land. And I was get been given
permission to tell the story is
going to very short because
00:52:03.82\00:52:08.12
the time has just flown. But you
know something when you
introduce this another point
00:52:08.12\00:52:13.93
when you introduced to
somebody's attention, so pass to
mocking introduced often
00:52:13.93\00:52:20.97
because of it was time of Haha.
>> And you didn't even know. I
00:52:20.97\00:52:34.52
love the good of a case of
building in the middle of an Get
00:52:34.52\00:52:40.06
back on track. >> So he
introduced us to a mother and a
daughter. And they will not
00:52:40.06\00:52:45.23
Adventist at the time. And so I
said Great peach Juice is what
happens So I said I'm going to
00:52:45.23\00:52:50.83
follow up. So mock preaches a
series. We did some pretty with
that mocking. We came back to
00:52:50.83\00:52:56.14
the states and I continued to
correspond with her. And give
the kind of studies and just
00:52:56.14\00:53:01.18
to together for about a year.
She finally got baptized. But,
you know, tell you something,
00:53:01.18\00:53:06.41
things were not going so well.
You know, it's hard when you
come out of absolute atheism
00:53:06.41\00:53:10.55
agnosticism and just the world
to all of a sudden conform to
adventurism. And I labeled
00:53:10.55\00:53:16.42
with enabled with the and I love
her to bits. I called my
daughter. She calls me mom. I
00:53:16.42\00:53:22.83
finally said, Lord, I don't know
what to do. I sent to the
conflict. The ages series,
00:53:22.83\00:53:26.90
many things Fina said, okay, I'm
going to center. Material and
kind of study through the
00:53:26.90\00:53:32.37
with the on quest to
righteousness and that did it.
And, you know, today she is a
00:53:32.37\00:53:37.25
medical student at Loma Linda.
Alright, she had a really deep
conversion experience. And if
00:53:37.25\00:53:44.02
you're watching Weny height,
haha, but >> we said we'll bring
00:53:44.02\00:53:50.46
you over to win Mark another
self supporting institution. We
need to get out of our
00:53:50.46\00:53:53.70
initial. She can have good
influences. mushy went unloved
that no, she trained at Saint
00:53:53.70\00:53:59.80
Andrews University in Scotland.
Now, if you go from Ivan each
00:53:59.80\00:54:05.24
cut into, we might put you to
who we my was Ivy League. It was
amazing experience that she had.
00:54:05.24\00:54:10.11
And it's all because when pass
to mock introduced. Us to to to
to her. I said, you know
00:54:10.11\00:54:16.95
something, this someone that
needs a friend in Jesus men. So
I just launched out in and
00:54:16.95\00:54:22.39
praise the Lord. You know, she's
giving Bible study. She loves
the Lord and it's just a
00:54:22.39\00:54:28.53
joy to be able to share. And
that's all because of going to
its side of never even thought
00:54:28.53\00:54:34.17
of it before. But I would have
been out in the first place. But
yes, we had a good time in
00:54:34.17\00:54:40.14
our lives. That's great things
you get to meet other people who
had that same drive and
00:54:40.14\00:54:46.75
have that same desire to share
Jesus and is just. >> It's
really beautiful is a
00:54:46.75\00:54:51.05
great place to network news.
It's such a great opportunity.
Yeah, we've had the
00:54:51.05\00:54:55.62
opportunity to make. >> Friends
that then do ministry together.
00:54:55.62\00:55:03.20
like not just our family
members, but also pastor Mark in
TV, but also down on could go on
00:55:03.20\00:55:08.64
and on and on. And all traces
back to this side. And I just
again impressed as a physician,
00:55:08.64\00:55:15.44
the spread of prophecy tells us
that the right arm of the Gospel
is the health And so
00:55:15.44\00:55:21.25
there's going to be coming down
here. The message of Crestor
righteousness coupled
00:55:21.25\00:55:25.32
with the opening was that we
talked about in the first hour.
That's going enlighten
00:55:25.32\00:55:29.29
the world with God's glory.
That's happening now. I'm happy
to be a part of that.
00:55:29.29\00:55:36.40
>> And you thank you all for
being here tonight. And our time
is just about gone that
00:55:36.40\00:55:39.77
past. Mark, we have about a
minute and a half and there are
people that really are
00:55:39.77\00:55:45.07
seeking the Lord to maybe
tonight they've been inspired a

00:55:45.07\00:55:48.34

prayer for them? I sure will.
