00:20 ♪ >> THIS IS HOW THE PROGRAM IS
00:23 SUPPOSED TO GO. [ LAUGHTER ] 00:26 >> WE WANT YOU TO KNOW -- WE PLAN THESE THINGS, OCCASIONALLY, 00:32 BUT WE DIDN'T DO ANY OF THE THINGS ON HERE. 00:35 BUT WE ALSO LIKE TO BE MOVED AND FEEL WE ARE LOVED BY THE HOLY 00:44 SPIRIT. IT IMPRESSED ME LET DANNY TALK, 00:47 AND THEN MOLLY, AND YVONNE, AND JILL, AND JORGE. 00:54 BECAUSE WE ARE THANKFUL THAT YOU ARE IN THIS WITH US. 00:58 WE'RE THANKFUL THAT WE ARE FOLLOWING THE LEADING OF THE 01:02 LORD AS BEST WE CAN WHEN WE COME TOGETHER FOR PRAYER. 01:08 AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, WE DEDICATE OURSELVES AGAIN TO THE 01:14 MOVINGS OF THE LORD. SO WHEN WE SEE THE MOVINGS OF 01:17 THE LORD, IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR EYES, AND WE LIKE TO SIT BACK A 01:22 LITTLE BIT AND REMINISCE AND REFLECT ON THE GOODNESS OF THE 01:25 LORD, AND WHEN I SAW DANNY THS MORNING, I SAW HE HAD A LITTLE 01:31 SPARKLE IN HIS EYES. I KNEW I NEEDED TO LET HIM GO A 01:36 LITTLE BIT. SO WE HAVE SOME THINGS TO COVER. 01:40 SO WE HAVE TO MOVE FASTER IN THE SECOND HALF. 01:43 >> BEFORE WE DO. WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR $0.02. 01:48 >> I THOUGHT OF THAT AS PUTTING IN MY $0.02. 01:53 >> NO, WE WANT TO HEAR FROM CA.-LET'S HEAR -- BECAUSE YO HAVE GOT SUCH A GREAT PERSPECTIVE. 02:00 YOU HAVE BEEN IN MINISTRY FOR SO MANY YEARS. 02:03 YOU HAVE WORKED WITH THE CHURCH, WITH 3ABN, AND NOW YOU ARE 02:08 WORKING TOGETHER DOING THINGS LIKE WITH ELDER WILSON, IN THE 02:12 HOPE CHANNEL AND ALL OF THIS. I MEAN, GIVE US YOUR -- YOUR 02:17 VIEW OF THIS YEAR, AND WHAT IS TO COME IN THE FUTURE. 02:21 >> THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS THAT THAT QUSTION OCCURS TO ME. 02:25 ONCE THAT I CAME OUT OF SCHOOL FOR PASTORING 40-PLUS YEARS AGO, 02:31 AND HAVE BEEN IN MINISTRY ALL OF THE YEARS, AND HAVE SEEN THINGS 02:36 AND SEEN THE CHURCH GROW, AND SEEN TROUBLED TIMES IN THE 02:42 CHURCH TOO. AND I HAVE TRACKED A PATERN OF 02:45 GROWTH IN THE CHURCH THAT STARTS IN THE MID-'80S. 02:49 >> UH-HUH. >> OKAY. 02:52 >> AND -- AND HAS CRESCENDOED SINCE THEN. 02:56 AND I HAVE GOT ATTRIBUTE IT TO BEING AN HISTORIAN OF THE CHURCH 03:02 TO OUR AGGRESSIVE MOVE INTO TELEVISION, INTO THE MEDIUM THAT 03:07 WAS THERE. GOD HAS ALWAYS TOLD HIS PEOPLE 03:10 TO USE WHAT IS IN YOUR HANDS. WE GOT NEWSPAPER. 03:17 WE GOT PRINT. LET'S USE THAT. 03:19 WELL, IN THE '80S, THE LORD -- WENT OUT TO A CORN FIELD 03:24 AND FOUND A LITTLE GUY, 5'8", 5'9", MAYBE ON HIS TIPPY TOES. 03:36 >> NO. [ LAUGHTER ] 03:38 >> AND SAID WHAT IS IN YOUR HAND, MAN? 03:41 AND OUT OF THAT BECAME A NETWORK. 03:43 I WAS IN THE COMMITTEE MEETINGS WHEN HOPE CHANNEL GOT STARTED. 03:47 AND I HEARD THEM SAY, LOOK AT WHAT THIS GUY IN THE CORN FIELD 03:51 IS DOING. LOOK AT WHAT 3ABN IS DOING. 03:54 WE NEED MORE OF THAT. AND SO THE BLESSING THAT GOD DID 03:58 THROUGH YOU, BECAME A RALLYING CRY FOR A BUNCH OF MINISTRIES. 04:07 YOU HAVE AMAZING BROADCASTING, BUT ONLY ONE PERSON GETS TO BE 04:11 FIRST, AND THAT WAS 3ABN. AND WE SAY THAT NOT PATTING 04:15 OURSELVES ON THE BACK. IT'S JUST THAT GOD WAS READY TO 04:25 DO SOMETHING, AND HE FOUND SOMEBODY READY TO TAKE ON THAT 04:29 CHALLENGE. HE FOUND A 7TH GRADE GIRL WHO 04:34 HADN'T BEEN IN SCHOOL FOR YEARS BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T STUDY. 04:38 AND GOD SAID AFTER TWO TRIE, WILLIAM FOYE, HASTEN FOSS, THEY 04:47 ARE NOT GOING TO DO IT. I'LL GET THIS THIRD-GRADE 04:52 EDUCATED GIRL, AND YOU SIR, AND NOW I'LL GET A GUY WHO IS JUST 04:57 DUMB ENOUGH TO FOLLOW ME WHEN I LEAD HIM, AND THAT'S DANNY 05:02 SHELTON. [ LAUGHTER ] 05:03 >> SO YEARS LATER, THE LORD CHOOSES TO SURROUND HIM WITH 05:08 PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME VISION AND DNA, AND IT IS MARVELOUS IN 05:13 MY EYES. I WORKED FOR THE CHURCH ALL OF 05:16 MY LIFE, AND THEN I CAME TO 3ABN, AND DANNY AS THE LORD 05:22 LIVETH, AND AS THE SOUL LIVETH, I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. 05:28 NO TWO DAYS ALIKE. [ LAUGHTER ] 05:30 >> EVERYBODY IS NODDING OVER HERE. 05:32 >> BECAUSE THEY ALL KNOW. AND I AM THRILLED TO GET TO WORK 05:36 WITH SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT ALL OF THE PEOPLE I HAVE MET IN MY 05:40 LIFE, AND I HAVE MET MANY, NONE FINER, NONE MORE COMMITTED THAT 05:45 THIS GROUP OF PEOPLE HERE. AND SHELLEY IS HOME ILL. 05:51 BOBBY DAVIS, ILL. PASTOR LOMACANG IS IN NEW YORK 05:56 AT MY OLD CHURCH -- I LET HIM PLAY THERE. 05:59 BUT IT IS THE MOST EXCITING TIME OF MY LIFE, AND THEN YOU GET 06:04 LETTERS LIKE I REFERRED TO IN THE FIRST HALF, WHAT A JOY. 06:08 >> AMEN. >> TO KNOW YOU ARE PART OF 06:10 SOMETHING THAT IS BIGGER THAN YOU. 06:13 AND YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT. >> ABSOLUTELY. 06:15 THAT THE LORD HAS GRACED YOU AND ALLOWED YOU TO BE THE HEAD OF 06:21 THIS THING, BUT IT'S GOD. AND SEE YOU OPENED UP THE 06:27 GATE -- [ LAUGHTER ] 06:29 >> THE LORD HAS PUT AT THE SPEAR END OF THIS MINISTRY, TWO PEOPLE 06:32 WHO HE HAS GIVEN THE ABILITY TO SMILE THROUGH PAIN, AND LAUGH -pTHROUGH PERSONAL TRAGEDY, AND 06:40 ALWAYS -- I HAVE NEVER GONE INTO MOLLIE'S OFFICE, AND SAID HOW 06:44 ARE YOU DOING? AND GOT WOE IS ME, I AM UNDONE. 06:48 >> RIGHT. >> AND THERE ARE TIMES WHEN SHE 06:52 COULD WELL SAY, WOE IS ME, I AM UNDONE. 06:58 THERE IS ENOUGH JESUS IN HER THAT SHE WILL SUMMON JESUS AND 07:04 GIVE YOU THAT. AND SAME WITH YOU. 07:06 I HAVE NEVER HEARD YOU SAY, I'M DONE. 07:10 THE LORD HAS LEFT. >> I THINK YOU HAD IT RIGHT A 07:18 WHILE AGO, I'M DUMB ENOUGH NOT TO LET IT GET ME DOWN. 07:24 MY DAD WOULD ALWAYS SAY, YOU CAN TELL BY HIS LITTLE FACE HE AIN'T 07:31 RIGHT. [ LAUGHTER ] 07:32 >> AND PEOPLE WOULD COM OVER, OR WE WOULD BE AT A GAS STATION, 07:36 AND I WAS ALWAYS A HAPPY KID. AND MY BROTHERS WOULD SAY MAKE 07:41 HIM SHUT UP. AND MY DAD SAID AS LONG AS HE IS 07:44 NOT CRYING OR COMPLAINING, JUST LET HIM DO WHAT HE WANTS. 07:48 BUT HE WOULD ALWAYS SAY DANNY IS AS HAPPY AS IF HE HAD GOOD 07:54 SENSE. SO IT'S NOTHING NEW IN MY LIFE 07:56 TO BE HAPPY, BUT I NEVER FOUND REAL HAPPINESS UNTIL I COMMITTED 08:03 MY LIFE TO JESUS, AND THEN 3ABN. SO IT'S REALLY HARD. 08:07 YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN IT IN THE PHYSICAL, SO IF YOU ARE A 08:11 DOUBTER, I CAN'T CHANGE YOUR MIND. 08:12 BUT IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH IT, MAYBE YOU WILL UNDERSTAND IT, 08:17 BUT I CAN HONESTLY TELL YOU, EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN THROUGH 08:21 FOR 33 YEARS, I HAVE NEVER REALLY BEEN UNHAPPY. 08:25 DO I GET FRUSTRATED AND UNHAPPY AT TIMES? 08:31 YES. DO I GET THROUGH IT? 08:33 YEAH, I REALLY HAVE. IF HAPPINESS -- IF YOU DON'T 08:36 LIKE THAT WORD, MAYBE IF YOU RELATE HAPPINESS TO RUNNING 08:40 AROUND SCREAMING, NO, BUT MAYBE PEACE. 08:43 I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A PEACE THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL. 08:46 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> SO NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY 08:49 OR DO, IT REALLY DOESN'T EFFECT ME. 08:52 I JUST KNOW WHAT THE LORD SAID TO DO. 08:55 TRY TO DO IT. MAKE MISTAKES ALONG THE WAY, ASK 09:00 GOD TO FORGIVE ME, AND MOVE ON. BUT I THINK THE PEACE THAT EVERY 09:06 ONE OF YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS LIKE.-SO THE PEACE IN THE MIDST OF THE 09:12 STORM, SO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE NOT REALLY COMMITTED YOUR LIVES 09:16 TO JESUS. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE -- THERE 09:18 ARE A LOT OF FOLK IN THE CHURCH, GOING TO CHURCH EVERY SABBATH, 09:23 EVERY SUNDAY, THAT YOU REALLY DON'T HAVE A PEACE IN YOUR LIFE, 09:28 AND MAYBE YOU WANT TO ASK GOD FOR A NEW RELATIONSHIP, BECAUSE 09:33 I PROMISE YOU, HE WLL GIVE YOU PEACE IN THE MIDST OF THE STORM 09:37 LIKE YOU NEVER KNEW WAS POSSIBLE. 09:40 I CAN HONESTLY SAY THROUGH ALL OF THE THINGS WE HAVE GONE 09:43 THROUGH IN THE LAST 30-SOME YEARS -- AND WE HAVE GONE 09:47 THROUGH SOME THINGS. WE'RE NOT EXCEPTIONS. 09:52 YOU HAVE BEEN ATTACKED JUST AS MUCH IN DIFFERENT WAYS. 09:55 BUT I HAVE NEVER LOST SLEEP OVER WORRYING WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN 09:58 TO ME IN WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO 3ABN. 10:02 I HAVE NEVER LAID AWAKE -- I CAN'T REMEMBER EVER LAYING AWAKE 10:05 AT NIGHT, SAYING, OH, MY, THIS IS TERRIBLE. 10:09 THIS IS NOT GOING TO WORK OUT. BECAUSE I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN IT'S 10:14 NOT MY PLAN OR MINISTRY. THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT CALLED DANNY 10:18 SHELTON MINISTRIES. AND I NEVER DREAM -- IT NEVER 10:21 DREAMED ON ME TO CALL IT -- BECAUSE WHEN I DO THAT, I 10:25 PUT ALL OF THE WEIGHT RIGHT HERE. 10:27 I KNEW THIS MINISTRY -- IT NEVER ENTERED MY MIND. 10:32 THIS IS THE DANNY MINISTRY. THIS IS THE SHELTON MINISTRY. 10:37 WE HAD A CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, SHELTON MINISTRY. 10:41 THAT TOLD WHO WE WERE. BUT I WANTED TO BE GOD'S 10:46 MINISTRY. >> AMEN. 10:47 >> 3ABN, THE NAME, SAYS WHAT WE'RE ALL ABOUT, END TIMES 10:52 MESSAGE FOR END TIMES PEOPLE. SO I HAVE A PEACE ABOUT IT. 10:55 AND I HAVE GONE THROUGH A LOT OF THINGS, AS YOU HAVE, BUT THE JOY 10:59 IN THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH. AND I ENCOURAGE YOU TODAY TO SAY 11:05 I REALLY WANT PEACE IN MY LIFE. I REALLY WANT JOY IN MY LIFE, 11:09 AND GOD WILL GIVE IT TO YOU IN THE MIDST OF THE STORM. 11:14 SO WHETHER WE LIVE ANOTHER DAY OR NOT, THAT'S ALL IRRELEVANT. 11:17 I HAVE HAD A GREAT RUN. AND I THANK GOD EVERY DAY, EVERY 11:24 HOUR, EVERY MINUTE, THIS FALL WILL BE HALF OF MY LIFE. 11:27 I'M 66, SO IT DOESN'T TAKE A GREAT MATHEMATICIAN, I STARTED 11:31 AT 33, I WAS 33 YEARS OLD, AND 66, SO I CAN'T REALLY REMEMBER 11:38 MUCH OF MY LIFE PRIOR -- PRE-3ABN, BECAUSE IT 11:43 HAS BEEN SUCH A HUGE -- NOT PART OF MY LIFE. 11:46 IT REALLY IS MY LIFE. >> PRAISE THE LORD. 11:51 PASTOR LOMACANG AND I ARRIVED AT THIS AT DIFFERENT POINTS. 11:56 I HAVE BEEN PREACHING ABOUT PURPOSE AND FOCUS. 11:59 WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR PURPOSE, IT ALLOWS YOU TO DEAL WITH A LOT OF 12:05 THE STUFF THAT COMES YOU, BUT YOU KNOW YOUR PURPOSE, SO WHEN 12:09 STUFF COMES I DON'T LOSE MY MIND, MY WAY, MY RELIGION, 12:13 BECAUSE I KNOW MY PURPOSE. I KNOW WHY GOD HAS PUT ME HERE 12:17 AND WHAT HE HAS PUT ME HERE TO DO, SO I MANTAIN MY FOCUS, SO 12:22 YOU HAVE HAD OPPORTUNITIES THAT -- YOU ARE JUST UNDONE, BUT 12:25 YOU KNOW YOU PURPOSE. SO YOU MAINTAIN YOUR FOCUS, AND 12:30 THEN AFTER A WHILE YOU SEE THE CLOUDS ROLL AWAY, AND GOD SMILES 12:34 AND STUFF IS HAPPENING, LIKE IT IS HAPPENING NOW, AND THIS IS 12:38 TURNING OUT TO BE ONE OF THE BEST YEARS, MOLLIE. 12:41 >> ABSOLUTELY. >> BECAUSE UR PURPOSE WAS TO 12:45 LIFT UP JESUS. AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PURPOSE 12:47 IS. AND ONCE YOU DO THAT, YOU KNOW 12:50 WHERE YOU WILL BE. >> IT IS GOING TO BE THE 12:53 GREATEST YEAR EVER. >> AMEN. 12:55 >> LET'S CHAGE JUST A LITTLE BIT. 12:59 AND TALK ABOUT "SPIRITUAL VIGILANTES." 13:01 DO YOU WANT TO TAKE THIS? OR IS JILL GOING TO GIVE US 13:07 NUMBERS? IT IS MAKING WAVES. 13:10 I GOT A HOT EMAIL JUST TWO DAYS AGO -- YEAH, TWO DAYS AGO, HOT 13:18 EMAIL, AND SOMEONE VEHEMENTLY DISAGREED WITH SOME OF THE 13:22 PREMISES IN THE BOOK, AND -- AND SOME OTHER THINGS THAT ACCRUED 13:26 FROM THAT, AND I -- WROTE THEM BACK, AND -- BECAUSE THEY WERE 13:31 LONG ON ACCUSATION AND SHORT ON INFORMATION. 13:34 [ LAUGHTER ] >> AND I SAID TO THEM, WHEN YOU 13:36 WRITE SOMEBODY THAT KNOWS A LITTLE MORE THAN YOU, YOU HAVE 13:40 TO BACK UP YOUR ACCUSATION WITH INFORMATION. 13:44 >> SURE. >> BECAUSE IF YOU JUST HAVE 13:46 ACCUSATION AND NO INFORMATION, THEN IT JUST LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE 13:49 GOT AN AGENDA, SO I SAID YOU NEED TO STUDY A LITTLE BIT, THEN 13:53 COME BACK, AND I'LL CONVERT TO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IF YOU BRING 13:58 ME INFORMATION. BUT SINCE YOU HAVE NO 14:04 INFORMATION, I GOT TO STICK WITH WHAT I KNOW. 14:07 SO THE BOOK IS MOVING PEOPLE WITH PASSION BECAUSE YOU ARE 14:12 TOUCHING ON SOME THINGS. SOME PEOPLE GET A LITTLE NERVOUS 14:16 WITH THAT KIND OF SPEECH. >> UH-HUH. 14:19 >> AND YET, IT'S A WONDERFUL BOOK. 14:22 IT'S A BOOK WHOSE TIME HAS COME. AND WE PRAISE THE LORD THAT HE 14:30 HAS BROUGHT YOU TO WRITE THAT. >> PEOPLE EITHER LOVE SPIRITUAL 14:36 THINGS OR HATE SPIRITUAL THINGS. AND HAVE ONE FOOT IN BOTH. 14:41 I'M NOT SURPRISED BY THAT. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS TWICE 14:47 REMOVED DOES THE SAME THING. I THINK IN THIS BOOK THIS MORE 14:52 RUFFLES THE FEATHERS OF PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH. 15:07 BUT WHEN THIS ONE IS TALKING ABOUT TAKING A LOOK INSIDE, AND 15:12 KEEPING ALL OF THE COMMANDS OF GOD, WHICH INCLUDES THE SABBATH, 15:19 SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, ABORTION, AND RIGHT ON DOWN THE LINE, SO THE 15:23 CHURCH IS MOVING -- YOU KNOW, AS IT HAS DONE OVER THE 15:27 YEARS -- AND WHEN I SAY THE CHURCH, THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, IT 15:34 DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE BAPTIST OR WHATEVER, BUT 15:38 EVEN WITHIN OUR OWN SPECIFIC CHURCH THERE ARE MOVEMENTS OF 15:42 THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING. WHAT IS POLITICALLY CORRECT, 15:47 WHAT ISN'T POLITICALLY CORRECT? SO THIS BOOK IS CAUSING SOME 15:51 FOLK TO BE A LITTLE UPSET, AND I'M SURPRISED THAT -- ONE PERSON 15:57 WROTE AND SAID, WELL, I WAS GOING TO GIVE IT OUT, BUT HE 16:02 SAID WE'RE A DEMOCRACY, AND AMERICA IS NOT REALLY A 16:06 DEMOCRACY, IT'S A REPUBLIC. WELL, I HAPPENED TO HAVE DONE MY 16:11 HOMEWORK ON IT, AND IT IS A DEMOCRACY IN A SENSE. 16:16 IT'S ALSO A REPUBLIC. AND THE FOUNDING FATHERS 16:20 REFERRED TO IT IN THEIR SPEECHES AS A REPUBLIC. 16:26 THEY SAID SOMEBODY IN OUR CHURCH ORDERED LIKE 500 OR A THOUSAND, 16:30 BUT NOW WE'RE NOT GOING TO PASS THEM OUT, BECAUSE YOU MESSED 16:35 UP -- AND I WAS LIKE SOMEBODY DIDN'T DO THEIR HOMEWORK, BUT ON 16:39 THIS ONE I DID MY HOMEWORK. BUT EMOTIONS RUN. 16:43 BUT WE'RE GETTING GREAT REPORTS TOO FROM PEOPLE. 16:46 AND YOU GET THOE. AND A LOT OF EMAILS SAYING THIS 16:50 REALLY HAS BEEN LIFE CHANGING FOR ME. 16:53 JILL WE HAVE HAD QUITE A FEW ORDERS? 16:56 >> WE HAVE INDEED. I THINK THIS BOOK IS LIFE 16:59 CHANGING. WHEN PEOPLE READ IT, AND GET 17:01 INTO IT, AND STUDY IT, AND SEE WHERE WE ARE TODAY, TO ME IT IS 17:07 LIKE A SIGN OF THE TIMES. WE ARE AT THE END OF TIME. 17:10 AND YOU SEE THAT WHEN YOU READ THE BOOK. 17:12 YOU SEE WHAT GOD IS DOING, AND GOD WANTS TO RAISE UP A PEOPLE 17:17 WHO WILL BE TRE TO THE WORD OF GOD. 17:20 AND THAT'S WHAT THE BOOK DOES. IT CALLS US BACK TO THE WORD OF 17:24 GOD. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 17:25 >> SO WE ARE EXCITED. OH, I THINK THERE'S JUST ABOUT 17:30 300,000 OF THESE BOOKS THAT HAVE BEEN -- 17:32 >> SO FAR. >> -- SO FAR. 17:36 AT THIS POINT, 300,000. WE GET THE STATISTICS FROM THE 17:40 CALL CENTER. AND THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING SO 17:43 HARD. THEY ARE ON THE PHONES TAKING 17:45 THE ORDERS, GETTING THE BOOKS SHIPPED OUT. 17:49 WE'RE DOING QUITE A FEW ZIP CODE MAILINGS. 17:53 AND THEN WE'RE TAKING THE ORDER, SO IF YOU WANT TO DO A ZIP CODE. 18:00 IF YOU SAY, HEY, I WANT TO DO MY ZIP CODE. 18:04 JUST CONTACT US, AND THEN WE WILL LET YOU KNOW -- WE CONTACT 18:09 REMNANT BECAUSE THEY HAVE THAT INFORMATION, AND THEN WE LET YOU 18:12 KNOW, IT WILL BE HIS MANY HOMES, SO YOU KNOW, IT'S $0.45 A 18:19 BOOK, SO YOU MULTIPLY THAT OUT AND FIGURE OUT THE COST, BUT YOU 18:22 CAN ORDER THE BOOKS AND PASS THEM OUT YOURSELF. 18:27 CALL US AT 618-627-4651, OR YOU CAN EMAIL US AT M 18:46 MAILROOM@3ABN.TV. SO -- 100 BOOKS COME IN A CASE. 18:50 AND SAY YOU WANT A HUNDRED BOOKS TO PASS OUT. 18:54 IT'S $18.50 FOR SHIPPING. WE NEED MORE VIEWERS TO DONATE 18:58 TO SUPPORT THIS BOOK, SO THAT WE CAN GIVE THE BOOKS OUT FOR FREE, 19:03 SO WE NEED PEOPLE TO SEND IN DONATIONS FOR THAT 19:07 BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GIVE OUT THE BOOK, $18.50 A CASE, OR 19:12 37 FOR TWO, AND KEEP MULTIPLYING ON UP. 19:17 IF YOU HAVE A GREATER QUANTITY, IT'S CHEAPER. 19:21 SO CONTACT US, 618-627-4651, CALL THE CALL CENTER AND THEY 19:24 WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU WITH THAT. 19:27 AN INTERESTING THING -- WE MESSED UP ON A CERTAIN ORDER. 19:30 I TALKED TO A LADY YESTERDAY FROM FLORIDA. 19:32 SHE SAID I CALLED AND WANTED NINE BOOKS. 19:39 BUT WHEN I WENT TO THE MAILBOX, THEY SAID YOU NEED TO COME TO 19:43 THE POST OFFICE TO PICK THIS UP, AND I THOUGHT I ONLY ORDERED 19:48 NINE BOOKS. GUESS WHAT WE SENT HER? 19:51 NINE CASES? [ LAUGHTER ] 19:52 >> THEY HAD IT ON A TRUCK -- >> 900. 19:57 >> 900 BOOKS, THEY HAD IT ON A TRUCKLOAD. 20:04 I SAID I'M SO SORRY. SHE SAID I CAN USE THESE BOOKS. 20:10 I'M SHIPPING SOME OVERSEAS TO MY FAMILY. 20:13 I ALREADY GAVE A WHOLE CASE TO THIS CHURCH. 20:15 I'M GIVING A WHOLE CASE TO THIS OTHER CHURCH. 20:18 AND SHE PASSED OUT HE 900 BOOKS. 20:22 [ LAUGHTER ] >> THAT DOESN'T USUALLY HAPPEN. 20:25 BUT IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY. >> PRAISE THE LORD, IT TURNED 20:28 OUT TO BE SOMEBODY WILLING TO GET THEM OUT. 20:31 TO ME IT HAS BEEN VERY -- SOMETIME THINGS WE DO IN 20:35 LIFE, YOU DON'T EVER GET TO HEAR THE RESPONSES, BUT IT IS GOOD TO 20:39 SEE FOLK WHO HAVE CHANGED THEIR OPINIONS AND VIEWS ON CERTAIN 20:43 THINGS THAT AS A CHURCH AND AS A PEOPLE, AND WHETHER IT BE 20:47 ABORTION OR SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, THAT'S NOT ALL WE DEAL WITH. 20:51 WE DEAL WITH ALL OF THESE THINGS, BUT PEOPLE SAY I'M GLAD 20:54 YOU ARE SPEAKING OUT. WE HAVE ACTUALLY HAD CONFERENCES 20:57 THAT HAVE ORDERED PALETTES OF THESE WHO ARE DONATING THEM. 21:02 I HAVE HAD PASTORS CALL ME AND SAY THING YOU FOR DEALING WITH 21:06 THE SUBJECT THAT IT'S HARD FOR THE CHURCH OR PEOPLE IN GENERAL 21:09 TO DO THIS. WE'LL PASS THE BOOKS OUT, AND 21:12 THANK YOU FOR WRITING THIS INFORMATION, BUT -- AND ACTUALLY 21:16 I THINK -- QUITE A FEW THOUSANDS-HAVE GONE OUT, BUT WE HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF PEOPLE AT CAMP MEETING 21:25 PASTORS HAVE TOLD ME, THANK YOU SO MUCH, BECAUSE I REALLY NEED 21:28 THIS, BECAUSE SOME OF THESE TOPICS ARE REALLY RIGHT NOW HOT 21:32 TOPICS WITHIN THE CHURCH, AND IT HELPS FOR ME TO GIVE THESE BOOKS 21:36 OUT AND THEN WE TALK ABOUT IT WITH THE PEOPLE. 21:38 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I'M 21:43 STRUCK WITH IS IT'S NOT A COMFORTABLE THING TO LOOK AT 21:46 YOURSELF. AND THE BOOK CAUSES YOU TO LOOK 21:49 AT YOURSELF, AND THE BIBLE TELLS US TO WORK ON OURSELVES WITH 21:55 FEAR AND INTREPIDATION. AND WHEN WE DO THAT, WE SEE HOW -WE MEASURE UP, AND WHAT IS THE -STANDARD TO THE LAW OF GOD. 22:05 SO THE BOOK IS NOT JUST ABOUT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE. 22:09 IT'S A ABOUT THE SABBATH, SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, ABORTION, 22:13 IT'S ABOUT LOOKING AT THE LAW OF GOD AND SEE HOW WE MEASURE UP. 22:17 AND ARE WE ALLOWING POLITICALLY CORRECTNESS TO TAKE US AWAY FROM 22:23 WHAT WE KNOW IS RIGHT. SO I THINK IT'S REALLY CAUSING A 22:26 LOT OF SELF EVALUATION, WHICH IS REALLY IMPORTANT. 22:30 IT'S A REALLY GOOD POINT. >> THAT'S WHAT I FELT. 22:33 IF ANYTHING IT BRINGS YOU TO A POINT OF DECISION. 22:36 AM I GOING TO CONTINUE BELIEVING WHAT I BELIEVE OR DOING WHAT I 22:40 AM DOING EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IT'S NOT RIGHT? 22:43 OR AM I GOING TO MAKE A CHANGE? FOR THOSE THAT ARE NAY SAYERS, 22:48 IT'S BECAUSE LIGHT IS SHINING, AND THEY ARE RESISTANT TO THE 22:52 LIGHT. AND THEY SAY WHY DO PEOPLE 22:54 RESIST THE LIGHT? WHY DO PEOPLE HATE THE LIGHT? 23:00 IT'S BECAUSE THEY LOVE THE DARKNESS, SO YOU ARE EITHER 23:04 GOING TO MOVE INTO A RELATIONSHIP LIKE -- LIKE I FEEL 23:07 LIKE IN THIS CASE, DANNY HAS DROPPED A PLUMB LINE, AND IN THE 23:12 MIDST OF THE CHURCH, DROPPED A PLUMB LINE. 23:15 WHAT -- WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU -- WHEN YOU DROP THE PLUMB 23:19 LINE AND YOU FIND THAT YOUR WALL IS OUT OF -- OUT OF PLUMB? 23:23 YOU CAN DO ONE OF TWO THINGS? YOU CAN SHOOT THE PROPHET, OR 23:28 YOU CAN STRAIGHTEN THE LAW. [ LAUGHTER ] 23:30 >> SO WHAT WE'RE PRAYING, AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING GOD DOING IN A 23:35 MIGHTY WAY IS THOSE SAYING I'M GOING TO STRAIGHTEN THE WALL. 23:40 >> SHE'S NOT SUGGESTING SHOOTING THE PROPHET. 23:44 [ LAUGHTER ] >> IT'S JUST A TERM FROM 23:47 ALABAMA. >> WHAT DO THEY DO IN THE OLD 23:50 TESTAMENT WHEN THE PROPHET CAME TO TOWN? 23:54 DANNY, THEY WOUL SHOOT THE PROPHET. 23:56 [ LAUGHTER ] >> I WOULD CHALLENGE YOU 23:57 PROBABLY -- AND I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS HERE, 24:01 BUT WE SHOULD THINK ABOUT DOING THIS BOOK IN SPANISH. 24:04 THIS IS NOT A -- A -- JUST A PROBLEM OR AN ISSUE IN THIS PART 24:09 OF THE WORLD. IT'S ALL OVER THE WORLD. 24:13 IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS -- DIVIDING SOCIETY, 24:16 AND -- ALL OVER THE PLACE. LATIN AMERICA COUNTRIES HAVE 24:22 SEEN THIS SITUATION, SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, AND -- ALL OF THESE 24:26 OTHER IMPLICATIONS SINCE -- QUITE A FEW YEARS BACK, 24:30 SO I THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO PROMOTE THIS IN A 24:35 LANGUAGE -- I MEAN IN SPANISH-SPEAKING LANGUAGE. 24:38 >> YEAH, WE HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF PEOPLE ASK IF WE COULD DO IT IN 24:44 SPANISH, AND I AM NOT AGAINST THAT AT ALL. 24:48 I DON'T KNOW WHO TO START WITH, MAYBE YOU? 24:51 [ LAUGHTER ] >> WE CAN DO -- WE CAN DO THAT. 24:54 >> SURE. PRAISE THELORD. 24:56 ANYWAY IF YOU WANT THE BOOK, CALL HER AND ASK FOR IT. 24:59 IF YOU WANT TO DONATE TO IT, YOU CAN SAY I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE 25:05 DONATION, MAYBE NOT ABLE TO PASS THE BOOKS OUT YOURSELVES, BUT 25:10 JUST PUT NEW BOOK, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO PUT ON IT. 25:14 IF YOU MAKE A DONATION, IT WILL BE TOWARDS THAT, AND IF YOU WANT 25:18 TO PASS THESE OUT FOR YOUR CHURCHES, IF YOU WANT 500, 800, 25:23 WHATEVER IT IS, YOU CAN CALL AND THEY WILL TELL YOU WHAT YOU HAVE 25:27 TO GO THROUGH. WE DON'T WANT ANY BOOKS SITTING 25:30 ON SHELVES. THE IDEA IS WHEN PEOPLE ARE 25:34 DONATING THE MONEY, IT'S TO GET THE BOOKS OUT INTO THE HANDS OF 25:38 THE PEOPLE, AND IT'S ALSO A BOOK I'M ENCOURAGING EACH OF THE 25:42 CHURCH MEMBERS TO READ FIRST. BECAUSE I THINK IT'S DEALING 25:46 WITH US INSIDE THE CHURCH, RATHER THAN MOST OF OUR BOOKS 25:49 THAT WE'RE TRYING TO REACH PEOPLE OUTSIDE. 25:52 LET'S DO THAT FIRST, AND THEN PASS THEM OUTSIDE. 25:54 >> AMEN. >> WELL SAID. 25:56 WELL SAID. NOW WE NEED TO STEP ON THE GAS 25:59 JUST A LITTLE BIT. BECAUSE WE HAVE A LOT OF THINGS 26:02 TO COVER. JILL TELL US ABOUT ASI COMING 26:07 UP. BEFORE WE WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT 26:11 TO TALK TO MS. YVON -- YVONNE ABOUT HER NEW PROJECT. 26:22 WE COULD DROP SOME NAMES TONIGHT -- 26:26 [ LAUGHTER ] >> NAME DROPPING. 26:27 >> I WAS PLEASED TO BE HER SPIRITUAL ADVISOR ON THAT 26:33 PROJECT. SOME VERY GOOD SINGERS, CISSY 26:39 HOUSTON WAS HERE -- >> HERE. 26:41 >> YEAH. >> LUTHER VANDROSS WAS HER 26:46 BACKUP SINGER. >> HE WAS. 26:47 >> ISN'T THAT AMAZING? BECAUSE I ALWAYS TOLD PEOPLE YOU 26:54 WERE HIS BACKUP SINGER. >> I WAS. 26:58 BUT ON THIS PROJECT HE WAS MY BACKUP SINGER. 27:03 >> AND YOU TALK ABOUT THE CREAM-DELA-CREAM ALL DOING BACK 27:08 UP FOR HER. AND A COUPLE OF YEARS LATER, THE 27:12 COMPANY FOLDED. >> YES. 27:14 >> BUT I KNEW SHE HAD IT IN HER. WHEN I CAME HERE, I JUST HAD 27:19 THIS FEELING THAT YVONNE NEEDED TO BE HERE. 27:22 WE TALKED ABOUT THAT. I SAID I JUST FEEL YOU NEED TO -pBE HERE. 27:27 AND ONE THING LEAD TO ANOTHER AND SHE IS HERE. 27:31 WELL, YOU GOT HER TO GO BACK TO THE STUDIO, AND IT WAS A LONG 27:34 TIME COMING, BUT PRAISE THE LORD IT IS HERE NOW, AND I THINK YOU 27:39 WILL AGREE THIS IS A GOOD PROJECT. 27:42 >> I PRAISE THE LORD FOR THIS ONE. 27:44 IT'S DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER ONE IN THAT -- WELL, I DON'T 27:51 KNOW. I MEAN, TO ME, THEY BOTH -- THE 27:54 FIRST ONE WAS KIND OF INDICATIVE OF WHERE I WAS AT THAT POINT IN 27:59 MY LIFE, AND THEN THERE ONE IS TOO. 28:03 THIS ONE HAS, I THINK, BIGGER SONGS IN IT. 28:07 KIND OF MORE DRAMATIC PIECES, BUT THEY ALL ARE POINTING TO 28:13 HIM -- MAGNIFY HIM. THAT'S REALLY THE PURPOSE OF THE 28:17 PROJECT. IT'S NOT JUST FOR ME TO JUST GET 28:19 UP AND SING AND YOU KNOW -- AND THAT'S IT. 28:22 IT'S REALLY TO POINT PEOPLE TO WORSHIP GOD, SO WORSHIP HIM WITH 28:27 ME, AND SO I -- I PRAY THAT THE SONGS WILL BE A SOURCE OF 28:37 ENCOURAGEMENT. THERE WAS ONE I RECORDED ON THE 28:42 FIRST CD, AND RE-RECORDED ON THIS ONE, BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A 28:47 POWERFUL SONG. IT'S NOT A BIG DRAMATIC PIECE, 28:53 BUT IT TALKS ABOUT THE CHRISTIAN WALK, AND HOW, YOU KNOW, WE MAKE 28:57 MISTAKES, BUT -- BUT THANKFULLY GOD IS OUR GOD, AND NOT MAN, AND 29:03 WE CAN ASK HIM TO FORGIVE US ONE MORE TIME. 29:07 SO GOD HAS REALLY BLESSED THIS PROJECT, I FEEL, AND I'M EXCITED 29:12 ABOUT IT, BECAUSE IT RELLY IS A WORSHIP-FILLED PROJECT. 29:18 >> TELL US ABOUT THE TITLE SONG. >> MAGNIFY HIM? 29:23 I DON'T CONSIDER MYSELF A WRITER, BUT WHICH HAVE A PROGRAM 29:28 ON DARE TO DREAM CALLED MAGNIFY HIM. 29:30 AND I ASKED THE LORD TO GIVE ME A THEME SONG FOR IT? 29:34 I SAID LORD WOULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO WRITE A THEME SONG, 29:38 AND HE GAVE IT TO ME. THE LYRICS, THE MELODY, 29:44 EVERYTHING. AND I SAID THANK YOU, LORD, 29:46 BECAUSE LIKE I SAID, I'M NOT A WRITER, SO I DID WRITE THE TITLE 29:51 SONG FOR THE PROJECT. >> YOU DID A GREAT JOB. 29:55 GREG AND I HAVE IT IN THE CAR, AND WE LISTEN IT TO IT GOING 30:01 DOWN THE ROAD. AND IT IS BEAUTIFUL. 30:04 >> YOU COULD DROP SOME MORE NAMES LIKE CHRIS WILKINSON AND 30:12 SOME OF THE ARRANGERS. >> OH, THE ARRANGERS ARE 30:19 AMAZING. I DID A LANNY WOLFE SONG, AND A 30:26 DANNY SHELTON SONG. "JUST IN TIME." 30:30 >> THAT WAS A LARRY GOF SONG. >> YES. 30:36 AGAIN. IT'S A LABOR OF LOVE BUT THE 30:41 INSTRUMENTATION IS JUST -- THE ARRANGEMENT S ARE AMAZING. 30:47 >> AND SHE IS DOING THIS FOR DARE TO DREAM, BASICALLY. 30:50 SO YOU CAN ORDER THIS AT 3ABN. THIS IS NOT GOING INTO HER 30:56 POCKET. THIS ISGOING INTO DARE TO DREAM 31:04 TO SUPPORT THE MINISTRY. SO THIS IS AN ACT OF LOVE ON 31:08 YOUR PART. >> AMEN. 31:10 >> IT TOOK A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TIME TO PUT THIS PROJECT 31:13 TOGETHER AND YOU DO IT FOR GOD'S GLORY AND TO MAGNIFY HIM. 31:20 SO I DON'T KNOW IF WE KNOW PRICES -- SUGGESTED DONATIONS, 31:24 IT'S LIKE 15 OR $16, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 31:27 YOU CAN FIND OUT, JUST GO TO 3ABN. 31:29 AND I KNOW YOU WILL BE BLESSED BY THIS. 31:33 BECAUSE I HAVE IT IN MY VEHICLE, AND I LISTEN TO IT ALL THE TIME. 31:37 I'M LEARNING ALL OF THE SONGS.

SHE SPENT MANY YEARS IN THE 31:52 JINGLE BUSINESS, SINGING COMMERCIALS, AND BACKING PEOPLE 31:56 LIKE LUTHER VANDROSS, SO IT'S INTERESTING TO HEAR THAT LUTHER 32:01 SANG BEHIND YOU, AND BACKED YOU ALSO. 32:03 BUT GOD HAS BLESSED YOU WITH AN INCREDIBLE GIFT. 32:07 I'M GLAD YOU ARE HUMBLE ABOUT IT. 32:10 I HAVE KNOWN HER FOR YEARS, HER SEVEN OR EIGHT PLATINUM RECORDS, 32:18 AND THEY ARE IN THE BASEMENT LEANING AGAINST THE WALL. 32:22 SHE SAYS THAT IS MY OLD LIFE.

EXCEPT FOR 3ABN. 37:32 THAT NIGHT I WATCHED ONE OR MORE PROGRAMS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF 37:37 KEEPING THE SABBATH. FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS THE LORD 37:41 HAS IMPRESSED UPON ME FROM STUDYING THE BIBE THAT THE 37:46 SABBATH WAS HIS HOLY DAY. I TELL THE LORD, IF IT'S THAT 37:50 IMPORTANT, I WILL BECOME A SABBATH KEEPER. 37:53 THE NEXT SABBATH FOUND ME AT THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH IN 37:58 MINNESOTA. I AM CURRENTLY TAKING MEMBERSHIP 38:02 CLASSES IN THE ADVENTIST CHURCH.

THAT'S SOMETHING WE STARTED OF 38:54 LATE. IRENE SAYS JUST WANTED TO SAY 38:56 THANK YOU FOR PUTTING SO MANY PROGRAMS ON YOUTUBE. 39:00 AT THE MOMENT AND FOR THE NEXT FORESEEABLE FUTURE, WE HAVE VERY 39:06 LIMITED MOBILE INTERNET, SO KNOW ROKU, SHE SAYS. 39:10 OUR LIVE STREAMS, AND NO POWER SATELLITE, SO THE CURRENT AND 39:15 PAST PROGRAMS ON YOUTUBE ARE A REAL BLESSING. 39:18 THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS. >> THAT'S GOOD. 39:20 >> THANK YOU, IRENE. WE APPRECIATE THAT. 39:23 >> PRAISE THE LORD. EXCELLENT. 39:26 EXCELLENT. THE LORD IS SITTING ON SO MANY, 39:28 MANY FRONTS. >> AROUND THE WORLD. 39:30 >> YEAH. >> AMAZING. 39:32 >> IT IS. SPEAKING OF AROUND THE WORLD, 39:38 THEEST TREATMENTED ONE, TELL US, YOU LITERALLY JUST LANDED A DAY 39:44 OR TWO AGO. SOME GREAT THINGS HAPPENING WITH 39:47 LATINO CHANNEL. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 39:49 LAST NIGHT MATTER OF FACT. WE JUST CAME BACK FROM MIAMI. 39:53 IN MIAMI -- GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN MIAMI. 39:57 AND WE WENT TO DO OUR WORK -- CAMP MEETING. 40:02 WE WANTED TO GO THAT WAY, BECAUSE WE TRIED TO EMBOLD THE 40:06 CHURCH, AND THEY DO THE PART. THEY INVITE PEOPLE, SO IT'S A 40:11 BIG EVENT. WE WERE ABLE TO INVITE SEVERAL 40:15 PASTORS, AND THESE MEETINGS WENT FROM THE -- THE WHOLE WEEK, 40:21 JUNE 30TH TO JULY THE 8TH. IN THOSE MEETINGS WE WERE ABLE 40:29 TO DO 24 SERMONS. THERE WAS A VERY, VERY 40:34 INTERESTING RESPONSE, GIVEN THE FACT WE DID THIS DURING THE 4TH 40:39 OF JULY WEEKEND. SO WE WERE KIND OF EXPECTING 40:42 WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE WAS NOT COMPLETELY FULL. 40:48 THERE WERE OVER 700 EVERY WEEKEND, BOTH WEEKENDS. 40:52 BUT WHAT REALLY MADE A DIFFERENCE FOR US, WE TRIED TO 40:57 MAKE SOMETHING DIFFERENT THIS TIME. 40:58 WHAT WE DID WAS TO ESTABLISH A CONNECTION WITH FACEBOOK, AND 41:02 WHAT IS CALLED FACEBOOK LIFE. AND IN FACEBOOK LIFE ALLOWED US 41:07 TO DO TWO HOURS EVERY NIGHT. AND I MENTIONED THAT IN THE 41:12 FIRST HOUR, BUT WITH AN AMAZING THING, BECAUSE WE NOW CAN SEE WE 41:20 REACH OVER 370,000 PEOPLE -- >> WOW. 41:25 >> WOW. >> -- AND THAT IS ALMOST A 4700% 41:30 INCREASE IN THE VIEWING AUDIENCE FROM ONE WEEK TO THE NEXT. 41:34 WHICH WAS THE WEEK OF THE EVENT. NOW VIDEOS WATCHED -- PEOPLE 41:41 WATCHED OVER 75000 -- OVER 75,000 PEOPLE WATCHED THE 41:45 VIDEOS. >> AMEN. 41:46 >> SO THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WE NEVER EXPECTED. 41:49 AND LIKE I SAID BEFORE, THIS IS FACEBOOK STATISTICS. 41:54 IT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE SAYING. SO THAT IS USING THE SOCIAL 41:58 MEDIA IN A WAY THAT WE DON'T EVEN -- CAN'T COMPREHEND, 42:03 BECAUSE SOMEBODY SEES THE PROGRAM AND SHARES WITH 42:06 SOMEBODY, AND SOMEBODY ELSE AND SO ON AND SO ON. 42:09 SO IT'S LIMITLESS. SO WE'RE SO THANKFUL FOR THE WAY 42:13 THAT GOD IS USING HIS MINISTRY, BUT ALSO OF COURSE THROUGH THE 42:17 SOCIAL MEDIA. >> UH-HUH. 42:19 >> MANY PEOPLE CAME TO THE MEETINGS. 42:22 THEY WERE SO THANKFUL. THE SOUTHEAST 42:27 CONFERENCE -- REGIONAL CONFERENCE, WAS THE 42:30 [ INAUDIBLE ] CONFERENCE, SO ALL OF THE PASTORS WHO WERE ALSO 42:33 INVOLVED, LOCAL PASTORS CAME, AND IT WAS VERY, VERY NICE TO 42:38 SEE THE CHURCH EXCITED AND INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT. 42:42 WE EVEN TOOK -- WE TOOK A LOT OF MATERIAL, BUT ALSO A BOX OF 42:48 SPIRITUAL VIGILANTES FOR PEOPLE WHO SPEAKS OR WANTS TO READ 42:55 ENGLISH. THEY WERE GONE IN TEN MINUTES. 42:57 SO IT WAS ALSO A VERY, VERY INTERESTING THING TO HAPPEN 43:02 THERE. SO -- TO MAKE THIS LONG STORY 43:04 SHORT, WE'RE COMING BACK TO START WORKING ON AN EVENT THAT 43:08 IS NOT GOING TO BE BROADCASTED, BUT SOMETHING WE DID IN 43:13 GUATEMALA LAST YEAR. WE'RE INVITING LAY PASTORS OR 43:17 VOLUNTEER PREACHERS TO GO WITH US TO COLUMBIA THIS YEAR. 43:23 LAST YEAR WAS A VERY, VERY INTERESTING -- EXCITING TO SEE 43:27 THAT MANY PEOPLE COME WITH US. THEY PAY THEIR OWN HOTELS AND 43:32 TRIPS AND EVERYTHING. THEY TAKE ON ALL OF THAT. 43:36 WE JUST INTRODUCE THEM TO DIFFERENT PREACHING CENTERS. 43:40 AND IN THEN IN GUATEMALA, 450 PEOPLE WERE BAPTIZED AT THEN OF 43:46 TWO WEEKS OF PREACHING WITH LAY PASTORS AND SOME OTHER GUEST 43:51 PASTORS FROM THE CHURCH. THIS TIME WE'RE GOING TO DO IT 43:55 IN COLUMBIA. IT'S AN 8 MILLION POPULATION 44:00 CITY, THE LARGEST CITY AFTER MEXICO CITY. 44:03 SO THOSE TWO CITIES IN LATIN AMERICA ARE VERY BIG CITIES. 44:11 SO THEY ARE PLANNING ON DOING THE UNION THIS TIME. 44:15 THEY ARE PREPARING 200 CENTERS, SO WE'RE GOING TO 44:20 MOTIVATE -- EVEN PEOPLE WHO SPEECH ENGLISH, THEY CAN COME, 44:23 AND BRING THEIR OWN TRANSLATOR -- OBVIOUSLY WE 44:26 CANNOT PAY FOR TICKETS OR HOTEL. EVERYBODY HAS TO TAKE CARE OF 44:31 THAT. WE'LL GIVE YOU ALL OF THE 44:33 INFORMATION, AND MAKE THE RESERVATION ON YOUR BEHALF, BUT 44:37 EVERYBODY IS TAKING CARE OF THOSE EXPENSES. 44:39 >> THEY HAVE 200 DIFFERENT SITES FOR PREACHING. 44:43 >> THAT'S THE IDEA. THAT'S THE GOAL. 44:45 >> WOW. >> SO FAR WE HAVE AT 44:47 LEAST -- THE 3ABN IS OVER 35 RIGHT NOW OF VOLUNTEER 44:53 PREACHERS, AND THERE'S A BIG AMOUNT OF PEOPLE FROM COLUMBIA 44:57 THAT ARE ALSO GOING TO JOIN US, AND THAT IS AN AMAZING THING 45:00 THAT I'M EXPECTING TO HAPPEN FOR THE LORD. 45:04 SO THAT IS COMING UP IN SEPTEMBER FROM THE 8TH TO THE 45:09 16TH OF SEPTEMBER, SO WE NEED PRAYERS. 45:13 WE NEED ALL OF THE -- THE POWERS -- HERE IS THE GRAPHIC 45:19 THAT YOU CAN SEE, AND WE HAVE TITLED EVANGELIZING WITH POWER 45:24 FROM SEPTEMBER 9TH TO 16.
