>> And all the sudden, that
graveyard burst out laughing.
00:00:11.511 --> 00:00:13.480 align:center line:69% position:50% size:58%
Everybody was laughing.
00:00:13.546 --> 00:00:16.082 align:start line:10% position:20% size:58%
Coming up, Mark Rutland
shares funny stories
00:00:16.149 --> 00:00:18.451 align:center line:10% position:50% size:35%
he experienced
in ministry.
00:00:18.518 --> 00:00:21.020 align:start line:69% position:30% size:38%
>> Laugh first.
00:00:21.087 --> 00:00:24.657 align:start line:63% position:15% size:68%
Everybody's going to laugh.
Laugh first!
00:00:24.724 --> 00:00:27.927 align:start line:63% position:20% size:58%
I thought, any ministry
that begins that way,
00:00:27.994 --> 00:00:30.029 align:center line:63% position:50% size:48%
there's going to be
some funny stuff,
00:00:30.096 --> 00:00:34.234 align:center line:63% position:50% size:70%
and I'm going to be laughing
right to the end
00:00:34.300 --> 00:00:36.369 align:center line:69% position:50% size:50%
-- right to the end!

JAMES: We welcome you.
00:00:55.488 --> 00:00:57.290 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
Betty I'm already laughing.
00:00:57.357 --> 00:00:58.591 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
Excuse me, James Robinson,
00:00:58.658 --> 00:00:59.893 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
Betty, welcome you
00:00:59.959 --> 00:01:01.127 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
to Life Today.
00:01:01.194 --> 00:01:02.395 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
Mark Rutland's with us.
00:01:02.462 --> 00:01:03.430 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
I remember the first time
00:01:03.496 --> 00:01:05.432 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I heard him 35 years ago.
00:01:05.498 --> 00:01:06.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I didn't know that much
00:01:06.633 --> 00:01:08.368 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
about him at all really.
00:01:08.435 --> 00:01:09.569 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I hadn't not even
00:01:09.636 --> 00:01:11.037 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
heard of him.
00:01:11.104 --> 00:01:12.372 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I did hear that he had been
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:13.606 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
part of the Church of God,
00:01:13.673 --> 00:01:15.375 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
part of a Methodist Church,
00:01:15.442 --> 00:01:18.244 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that he was pastoring
00:01:18.311 --> 00:01:20.246 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
a big church in Florida
00:01:20.313 --> 00:01:21.548 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and then ends up at
00:01:21.614 --> 00:01:22.549 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Oral Roberts University
00:01:22.615 --> 00:01:23.850 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
as the president.
00:01:23.917 --> 00:01:25.552 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
We were friends here,
00:01:25.618 --> 00:01:26.686 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
but I had no idea
00:01:26.753 --> 00:01:27.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
where this guy was going.
00:01:27.787 --> 00:01:29.122 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
Now, here he is,
00:01:29.189 --> 00:01:30.290 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Betty and I are 81,
00:01:30.356 --> 00:01:31.791 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
he's in his late 70s;
00:01:31.858 --> 00:01:32.959 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
he may want to be specific
00:01:33.026 --> 00:01:34.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
about it.
00:01:34.327 --> 00:01:35.328 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
But he's just written
00:01:35.395 --> 00:01:36.463 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
another book, which
00:01:36.529 --> 00:01:37.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
he's written a bunch
00:01:37.630 --> 00:01:38.631 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
of great books.
00:01:38.698 --> 00:01:40.834 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
It says Keep On Keeping On.
00:01:40.900 --> 00:01:42.168 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Then you've got to read
00:01:42.235 --> 00:01:43.837 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
the sweatshirts,
00:01:43.903 --> 00:01:45.772 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
"How to Die Young"
00:01:45.839 --> 00:01:47.807 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and "As Old as Possible."
00:01:47.874 --> 00:01:49.075 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
BETTY: I love that!
00:01:49.142 --> 00:01:50.176 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
JAMES: Mark, welcome
00:01:50.243 --> 00:01:51.211 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to Life Today.
00:01:51.277 --> 00:01:52.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
MARK: It's great
00:01:52.345 --> 00:01:53.746 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to be back with you guys.
00:01:53.813 --> 00:01:54.814 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
JAMES: You've been here
00:01:54.881 --> 00:01:55.882 align:start line:85% position:10% size:15%
a lot.
00:01:55.949 --> 00:01:57.383 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
And you've been in a lot
00:01:57.450 --> 00:01:58.451 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
of our conferences.
00:01:58.518 --> 00:01:59.519 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You've been with us
00:01:59.586 --> 00:02:00.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in a lot of different
00:02:00.787 --> 00:02:01.788 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
types of meetings.
00:02:01.855 --> 00:02:03.289 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
MARK: And all over the world.
00:02:03.356 --> 00:02:04.357 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
BETTY: That's right!
00:02:04.424 --> 00:02:05.425 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
MARK: Asia and China.
00:02:05.492 --> 00:02:06.493 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
JAMES: You exposed us
00:02:06.559 --> 00:02:07.727 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to something we had been
00:02:07.794 --> 00:02:08.928 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
exposed to, but taking care
00:02:08.995 --> 00:02:09.996 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
of girls that
00:02:10.063 --> 00:02:11.498 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
have been trafficked.
00:02:11.564 --> 00:02:14.200 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
And literally, going into
00:02:14.267 --> 00:02:15.468 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
the areas where they were
00:02:15.535 --> 00:02:16.803 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
kidnapped, so to speak,
00:02:16.870 --> 00:02:18.905 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
or bought for a television
00:02:18.972 --> 00:02:20.840 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
or $100, and promised to
00:02:20.907 --> 00:02:22.375 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
take them to get a good job;
00:02:22.442 --> 00:02:23.510 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
where they ended up,
00:02:23.576 --> 00:02:24.878 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
you showed me.
00:02:24.944 --> 00:02:26.513 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
But you headed them off.
00:02:26.579 --> 00:02:28.314 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
You rented property in
00:02:28.381 --> 00:02:29.449 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Thailand and other places.
00:02:29.516 --> 00:02:30.850 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I took you to China
00:02:30.917 --> 00:02:33.219 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and you saw them dedicate
00:02:33.286 --> 00:02:35.355 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
a great place of outreach
00:02:35.421 --> 00:02:37.156 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to orphans that we built,
00:02:37.223 --> 00:02:38.558 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and they treated me like
00:02:38.625 --> 00:02:40.226 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I was in great favor
00:02:40.293 --> 00:02:41.261 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
with them, didn't they?
00:02:41.327 --> 00:02:42.295 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
MARK: They sure did.
00:02:42.362 --> 00:02:44.063 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
It was exciting.
00:02:44.130 --> 00:02:45.431 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
JAMES: Only God could do it.
00:02:45.498 --> 00:02:46.499 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
MARK: Only God could do it.
00:02:46.566 --> 00:02:47.600 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
JAMES: Both of us
00:02:47.667 --> 00:02:48.701 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
were doing it; it ended up
00:02:48.768 --> 00:02:49.769 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that you blessed us
00:02:49.836 --> 00:02:50.870 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and inspired us,
00:02:50.937 --> 00:02:51.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and then we ended up
00:02:52.038 --> 00:02:53.039 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
building the great
00:02:53.106 --> 00:02:54.107 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Destiny House there,
00:02:54.173 --> 00:02:55.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the beautiful home.
00:02:55.241 --> 00:02:56.242 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Now then we're about
00:02:56.309 --> 00:02:57.277 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to try to get what amounts
00:02:57.343 --> 00:02:58.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to a hotel because you can't
00:02:58.344 --> 00:02:59.345 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
get rental property
00:02:59.412 --> 00:03:00.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
to take care of all
00:03:00.446 --> 00:03:01.581 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
these trafficked kids.
00:03:01.648 --> 00:03:02.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Anyway, we started
00:03:02.849 --> 00:03:04.183 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
doing things together.
00:03:04.250 --> 00:03:05.652 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You hosted Life Today
00:03:05.718 --> 00:03:07.053 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
some with us together
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.955 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and even considered you
00:03:09.022 --> 00:03:10.123 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
maybe doing that before
00:03:10.189 --> 00:03:11.291 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
you ended up
00:03:11.357 --> 00:03:12.725 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
at Oral Roberts University.
00:03:12.792 --> 00:03:15.028 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So I'd say we're close.
00:03:15.094 --> 00:03:16.963 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I believe the two of us,
00:03:17.030 --> 00:03:19.265 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
and our wives,
00:03:19.332 --> 00:03:20.400 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and everybody around us,
00:03:20.466 --> 00:03:21.534 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
we believe we were left here
00:03:21.601 --> 00:03:22.602 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
for a purpose,
00:03:22.669 --> 00:03:23.703 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
not to get us out of here.
00:03:23.770 --> 00:03:25.071 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
He's coming to get us,
00:03:25.138 --> 00:03:26.105 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
all right, but he left us here
00:03:26.172 --> 00:03:27.240 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
on a divine assignment.
00:03:27.307 --> 00:03:28.308 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Do you agree with that?
00:03:28.374 --> 00:03:29.475 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
MARK: Yeah. Jesus said,
00:03:29.542 --> 00:03:31.311 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
"Occupy until I come."
00:03:31.377 --> 00:03:33.179 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
We're not supposed
00:03:33.246 --> 00:03:35.315 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
to just sit around.
00:03:35.381 --> 00:03:36.749 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
We have heaven for later.
00:03:36.816 --> 00:03:37.817 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
We'll enjoy heaven.
00:03:37.884 --> 00:03:38.885 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
It'll be eternal.
00:03:38.952 --> 00:03:39.953 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
It'll be blessed.
00:03:40.019 --> 00:03:41.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
It'll be wonderful.
00:03:41.087 --> 00:03:42.155 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
There'll be no preaching
00:03:42.221 --> 00:03:43.289 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in heaven; that'll be
00:03:43.356 --> 00:03:45.024 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
a relief to a lot of
00:03:45.091 --> 00:03:46.159 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the people that listen
00:03:46.225 --> 00:03:47.293 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to you and me.
00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:48.361 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
Thank God!
00:03:48.428 --> 00:03:49.529 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
There'll be no sermons.
00:03:49.596 --> 00:03:51.464 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
There'll be none of that.
00:03:51.531 --> 00:03:53.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
That's now. That's here.
00:03:53.633 --> 00:03:55.101 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So I'm going to work
00:03:55.168 --> 00:03:56.402 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
until I can't work, and when
00:03:56.469 --> 00:03:57.537 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I can't work, I'm going
00:03:57.604 --> 00:03:59.105 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to pray till I can't pray,
00:03:59.172 --> 00:04:00.106 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and then I'm going
00:04:00.173 --> 00:04:01.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
to be in heaven.
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:02.475 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
JAMES: You would agree with me
00:04:02.542 --> 00:04:04.143 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
that since we were left here
00:04:04.210 --> 00:04:05.578 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
to proclaim the gospel
00:04:05.645 --> 00:04:06.713 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
of the kingdom,
00:04:06.779 --> 00:04:08.748 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
his kingdom here on his earth,
00:04:08.815 --> 00:04:10.483 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
you would agree that
00:04:10.550 --> 00:04:12.452 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we can be overcomers
00:04:12.518 --> 00:04:13.953 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
in this kingdom.
00:04:14.020 --> 00:04:15.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
We don't have to be overcome.
00:04:15.922 --> 00:04:16.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
We can be more
00:04:17.023 --> 00:04:18.224 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
than conquerors.
00:04:18.291 --> 00:04:19.392 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
We should live that way.
00:04:19.459 --> 00:04:20.526 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
MARK: That's declared.
00:04:20.593 --> 00:04:22.028 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
We are more than conquerors.
00:04:22.095 --> 00:04:23.229 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Therefore, we simply have
00:04:23.296 --> 00:04:24.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to live as that which God
00:04:24.964 --> 00:04:26.966 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
has already told us we are.
00:04:27.033 --> 00:04:28.768 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
We are more than conquerors.
00:04:28.835 --> 00:04:31.604 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Do you remember the
00:04:31.671 --> 00:04:32.772 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
"Thrilla in Manila?"
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:34.207 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
You're old enough to remember
00:04:34.273 --> 00:04:37.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that fight when Ali
00:04:37.310 --> 00:04:39.312 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and who was it, Frazier?
00:04:39.379 --> 00:04:41.147 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
They got finished,
00:04:41.214 --> 00:04:42.682 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and they took them out
00:04:42.749 --> 00:04:44.017 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
to the center and those men
00:04:44.083 --> 00:04:45.151 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
looked like they had
00:04:45.218 --> 00:04:47.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
been in a war!
00:04:47.220 --> 00:04:48.721 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
They lifted Muhammad Ali's
00:04:48.788 --> 00:04:49.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
hand up, you know,
00:04:50.023 --> 00:04:51.257 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and he's like this.
00:04:51.324 --> 00:04:54.494 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I said, that's a winner?
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:55.762 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
That's a winner?
00:04:55.828 --> 00:04:58.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
We are more than conquerors.
00:04:58.097 --> 00:04:59.766 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
We're more than conquerors!
00:04:59.832 --> 00:05:01.367 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
This is not to beat us up.
00:05:01.434 --> 00:05:02.635 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
We're more than conquerors.
00:05:02.702 --> 00:05:04.070 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
JAMES: Okay.
00:05:04.137 --> 00:05:05.304 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
What in the world led you
00:05:05.371 --> 00:05:07.273 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
down this path?
00:05:07.340 --> 00:05:08.408 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Because you've gone
00:05:08.474 --> 00:05:09.509 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
on a lot of unusual,
00:05:09.575 --> 00:05:10.610 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
and important,
00:05:10.677 --> 00:05:11.878 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and great paths.
00:05:11.944 --> 00:05:13.312 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But this is just interesting.
00:05:13.379 --> 00:05:14.881 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
MARK: This is my 20th book,
00:05:14.947 --> 00:05:16.382 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and the 19 previous ones
00:05:16.449 --> 00:05:17.583 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
have all been very serious
00:05:17.650 --> 00:05:18.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and good books,
00:05:18.785 --> 00:05:19.786 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
great books, won
00:05:19.852 --> 00:05:21.521 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
New York Times' bestseller.
00:05:21.587 --> 00:05:23.389 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
It's all been great.
00:05:23.456 --> 00:05:25.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
But now, here I am
00:05:25.158 --> 00:05:27.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
in my late 70s, as you said,
00:05:27.760 --> 00:05:29.328 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
and I just made my mind up.
00:05:29.395 --> 00:05:30.530 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
I don't want to be
00:05:30.596 --> 00:05:31.698 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that old guy that spends
00:05:31.764 --> 00:05:32.932 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
my senior years chasing kids
00:05:32.999 --> 00:05:34.400 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
out of my yard, "Get away
00:05:34.467 --> 00:05:36.269 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
from my apple trees!"
00:05:36.335 --> 00:05:37.303 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I just don't want
00:05:37.370 --> 00:05:38.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to be that guy.
00:05:38.504 --> 00:05:39.906 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Then it dawned on me,
00:05:39.972 --> 00:05:40.940 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I don't want any Christian
00:05:41.007 --> 00:05:44.343 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to be that guy, that person.
00:05:44.410 --> 00:05:46.446 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
So, Travis said,
00:05:46.512 --> 00:05:47.613 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
"Dad, I've never known…"
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.116 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Our son said, "I've never
00:05:50.183 --> 00:05:52.185 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
known anybody with as many
00:05:52.251 --> 00:05:53.553 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
funny church stories
00:05:53.619 --> 00:05:55.154 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
as you have."
00:05:55.221 --> 00:05:56.923 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I took those stories
00:05:56.989 --> 00:05:58.357 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and weaved them together
00:05:58.424 --> 00:06:00.326 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
into a book about
00:06:00.393 --> 00:06:04.063 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
aging with joy.
00:06:04.130 --> 00:06:05.498 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
The Lord is clear.
00:06:05.565 --> 00:06:06.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
The joy of the Lord
00:06:06.666 --> 00:06:07.967 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
is our strength.
00:06:08.034 --> 00:06:10.803 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
So, anything that sucks down
00:06:10.870 --> 00:06:13.906 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
on my joy takes away
00:06:13.973 --> 00:06:16.409 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
from my strength in God.
00:06:16.476 --> 00:06:18.344 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So, if I allow aging
00:06:18.411 --> 00:06:19.345 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
and the aches and pains --
00:06:19.412 --> 00:06:20.913 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
look, things change.
00:06:20.980 --> 00:06:22.515 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I'm not making light of that.
00:06:22.582 --> 00:06:23.916 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
A bunch of stuff hurts
00:06:23.983 --> 00:06:25.651 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
that didn't used to hurt.
00:06:25.718 --> 00:06:26.719 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Things don't work
00:06:26.786 --> 00:06:28.654 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
that used to work.
00:06:28.721 --> 00:06:30.256 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
So, that's all part of it.
00:06:30.323 --> 00:06:32.391 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But if it makes you angry,
00:06:32.458 --> 00:06:34.060 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
then it wins.
00:06:34.127 --> 00:06:35.428 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
So what I'm saying in
00:06:35.495 --> 00:06:37.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
this book is keep on giving,
00:06:37.697 --> 00:06:38.865 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
keep on rejoicing,
00:06:38.931 --> 00:06:40.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
keep on forgiving,
00:06:40.633 --> 00:06:42.602 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
keep on releasing.
00:06:42.668 --> 00:06:43.836 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
Just different ways
00:06:43.903 --> 00:06:45.138 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
to Keep On Keeping On,
00:06:45.204 --> 00:06:46.873 align:start line:63% position:10% size:30%
to have fun.
00:06:46.939 --> 00:06:48.207 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
I thought back over my life,
00:06:48.274 --> 00:06:51.978 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
and my ministry began
00:06:52.044 --> 00:06:53.379 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
with one of the funniest
00:06:53.446 --> 00:06:54.680 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
things that's ever happened
00:06:54.747 --> 00:06:55.748 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in anybody's life,
00:06:55.815 --> 00:06:57.316 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I promise you, James,
00:06:57.383 --> 00:06:59.619 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
if you live to be a thousand.
00:06:59.685 --> 00:07:01.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
My very first funeral --
00:07:01.287 --> 00:07:04.457 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
my first funeral, I was 22;
00:07:04.524 --> 00:07:06.058 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
a 22-year-old boy should not
00:07:06.125 --> 00:07:07.426 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
be given a driver's license,
00:07:07.493 --> 00:07:10.363 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
let alone a church.
00:07:10.429 --> 00:07:12.632 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I had this guy in my church
00:07:12.698 --> 00:07:14.033 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
who was an alcoholic
00:07:14.100 --> 00:07:15.635 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and he couldn't get over it.
00:07:15.701 --> 00:07:16.969 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
When he died, his wife
00:07:17.036 --> 00:07:18.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
who was in the Primitive
00:07:18.204 --> 00:07:19.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Baptist church wanted me
00:07:19.806 --> 00:07:22.575 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to take part in his funeral.
00:07:22.642 --> 00:07:23.943 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
So, I went up there
00:07:24.010 --> 00:07:25.077 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to this little Primitive
00:07:25.144 --> 00:07:26.412 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Baptist church in the middle
00:07:26.479 --> 00:07:28.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
of the Appalachian Mountains,
00:07:28.114 --> 00:07:29.115 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and the old preacher
00:07:29.182 --> 00:07:31.517 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
was so angry I was there.
00:07:31.584 --> 00:07:34.554 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
He just treated me so mean.
00:07:34.620 --> 00:07:35.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
I was 22,
00:07:35.922 --> 00:07:38.491 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
it was my first funeral.
00:07:38.558 --> 00:07:40.226 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
He basically denounced me
00:07:40.293 --> 00:07:41.727 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
from the pulpit.
00:07:41.794 --> 00:07:43.930 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
It was humiliating.
00:07:43.996 --> 00:07:45.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
We went out to the little
00:07:45.398 --> 00:07:47.533 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
cemetery right outside.
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:49.135 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
The pallbearers are carrying
00:07:49.202 --> 00:07:50.903 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the casket the old-timey way
00:07:50.970 --> 00:07:53.639 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and set my friend up
00:07:53.706 --> 00:07:55.441 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
on the sling there.
00:07:55.508 --> 00:07:56.742 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I asked the old preacher,
00:07:56.809 --> 00:07:57.877 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
"Do you want me
00:07:57.944 --> 00:07:58.911 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
to have any part
00:07:58.978 --> 00:08:00.046 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in the graveside?"
00:08:00.112 --> 00:08:01.247 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
And he said, "No!"
00:08:01.314 --> 00:08:02.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
He said, "You've done enough!"
00:08:02.348 --> 00:08:03.749 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
It was fine.
00:08:03.816 --> 00:08:05.451 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
But he was sure I was going
00:08:05.518 --> 00:08:07.787 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to try to insinuate myself
00:08:07.854 --> 00:08:08.888 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and so he was going
00:08:08.955 --> 00:08:09.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
to block me.
00:08:10.022 --> 00:08:11.257 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
He stepped out
00:08:11.324 --> 00:08:12.625 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
like that to keep me
00:08:12.692 --> 00:08:14.227 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
from getting in there.
00:08:14.293 --> 00:08:15.461 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
And he stepped out on
00:08:15.528 --> 00:08:17.230 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
the felt and shot down
00:08:17.296 --> 00:08:20.466 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
in the end of that grave.
00:08:20.533 --> 00:08:21.667 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
The casket was a little bit
00:08:21.734 --> 00:08:22.768 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
loose on the sling,
00:08:22.835 --> 00:08:24.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and it gave way.
00:08:24.303 --> 00:08:26.272 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
He shot down and it pinned him
00:08:26.339 --> 00:08:28.007 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
just like a bug on
00:08:28.074 --> 00:08:30.009 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
an insect collection,
00:08:30.076 --> 00:08:32.511 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
and they couldn't get him out.
00:08:32.578 --> 00:08:33.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
So they finally had
00:08:33.646 --> 00:08:34.647 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to call the gravediggers
00:08:34.714 --> 00:08:35.715 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
out of their truck.
00:08:35.781 --> 00:08:36.849 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
They were in their truck
00:08:36.916 --> 00:08:37.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
having a smoke, and had
00:08:38.050 --> 00:08:41.888 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to crank, and pull him up.
00:08:41.954 --> 00:08:44.824 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
He was wet with Georgia clay.
00:08:44.891 --> 00:08:46.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
His little wife is dabbing
00:08:46.525 --> 00:08:48.227 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
at him with his hankie.
00:08:48.294 --> 00:08:49.395 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You know what I mean?
00:08:49.462 --> 00:08:50.730 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Globs of wet clay
00:08:50.796 --> 00:08:52.265 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
dripping off of him.
00:08:52.331 --> 00:08:54.200 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And all the sudden,
00:08:54.267 --> 00:08:55.268 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
that graveyard
00:08:55.334 --> 00:08:56.836 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
burst out laughing.
00:08:56.903 --> 00:08:58.104 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Everybody was laughing.
00:08:58.170 --> 00:08:59.338 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Listen, you make a Baptist
00:08:59.405 --> 00:09:02.541 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
laugh --.
00:09:02.608 --> 00:09:03.809 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
They were laughing.
00:09:03.876 --> 00:09:05.111 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
He went off to his car
00:09:05.177 --> 00:09:07.046 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and drove off angry.
00:09:07.113 --> 00:09:08.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
I heard two things
00:09:08.347 --> 00:09:09.448 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
in that cemetery
00:09:09.515 --> 00:09:10.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that changed my life.
00:09:10.716 --> 00:09:12.385 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
The first one is,
00:09:12.451 --> 00:09:14.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
when you do a funeral
00:09:14.220 --> 00:09:16.589 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
stand back from the grave.
00:09:16.656 --> 00:09:18.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
The second thing is,
00:09:18.124 --> 00:09:21.627 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
if you fall in, laugh first!
00:09:21.694 --> 00:09:24.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Everybody's going to laugh,
00:09:24.096 --> 00:09:25.865 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
laugh first.
00:09:25.932 --> 00:09:27.333 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
And I thought any ministry
00:09:27.400 --> 00:09:29.201 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that begins that way,
00:09:29.268 --> 00:09:30.403 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
there's going to be
00:09:30.469 --> 00:09:31.637 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
some funny stuff,
00:09:31.704 --> 00:09:34.073 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and I'm going to be laughing
00:09:34.140 --> 00:09:35.541 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
right to the end --
00:09:35.608 --> 00:09:37.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
right to the end!
00:09:37.777 --> 00:09:39.578 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
JAMES: Tell me how
00:09:39.645 --> 00:09:40.913 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
you think you're going to
00:09:40.980 --> 00:09:42.248 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
-- that was great!
00:09:42.315 --> 00:09:43.883 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
You can tell so many stories,
00:09:43.950 --> 00:09:45.484 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
and I know you've got
00:09:45.551 --> 00:09:46.652 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
just bunches of them in here.
00:09:46.719 --> 00:09:48.187 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
I've heard bunches of them,
00:09:48.254 --> 00:09:49.555 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
I'm sure.
00:09:49.622 --> 00:09:50.923 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But what do you want
00:09:50.990 --> 00:09:52.191 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to happen to the people
00:09:52.258 --> 00:09:53.259 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
who get the book?
00:09:53.326 --> 00:09:54.527 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I mean, it's not just
00:09:54.593 --> 00:09:56.062 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
going to be a book that
00:09:56.128 --> 00:09:57.363 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we got a few laughs.
00:09:57.430 --> 00:09:58.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I think you're beyond
00:09:58.931 --> 00:10:00.800 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
just the surface reality
00:10:00.866 --> 00:10:04.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
of it's a joy to laugh.
00:10:04.070 --> 00:10:06.839 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
It's a peacemaker.
00:10:06.906 --> 00:10:09.208 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
It lightens the load.
00:10:09.275 --> 00:10:11.310 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
It is a ministry in itself.
00:10:11.377 --> 00:10:13.112 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
It's good medicine.
00:10:13.179 --> 00:10:14.547 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
What do you pray?
00:10:14.613 --> 00:10:15.781 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
MARK: One of your major
00:10:15.848 --> 00:10:17.183 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
themes is that we're
00:10:17.249 --> 00:10:18.617 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
supposed to be about this
00:10:18.684 --> 00:10:19.819 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
until the return of the Lord
00:10:19.885 --> 00:10:22.254 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
or until we go to heaven.
00:10:22.321 --> 00:10:24.223 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
What I say is you,
00:10:24.290 --> 00:10:26.459 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
whoever you are,
00:10:26.525 --> 00:10:27.893 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
you have people whose lives
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:29.729 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
are impacted by your life
00:10:29.795 --> 00:10:31.297 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
right to the end.
00:10:31.364 --> 00:10:33.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Grandchildren that you may
00:10:33.666 --> 00:10:36.369 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
have to leap over a generation
00:10:36.435 --> 00:10:38.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to reach some, young people,
00:10:39.038 --> 00:10:40.539 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
people in stores
00:10:40.606 --> 00:10:42.041 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
that you can have an impact
00:10:42.108 --> 00:10:43.209 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
on their lives
00:10:43.275 --> 00:10:44.744 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in your senior years.
00:10:44.810 --> 00:10:45.878 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
This is a strange thing
00:10:45.945 --> 00:10:47.046 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
people don't believe,
00:10:47.113 --> 00:10:48.314 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
but it's true.
00:10:48.381 --> 00:10:49.415 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You can have impact
00:10:49.482 --> 00:10:50.516 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
on some people's lives
00:10:50.583 --> 00:10:51.550 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
in your senior years that
00:10:51.617 --> 00:10:53.319 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
you cannot when you're young.
00:10:53.386 --> 00:10:54.553 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You have a built-in
00:10:54.620 --> 00:10:55.688 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
kind of trust.
00:10:55.755 --> 00:10:56.756 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
If you will handle it
00:10:56.822 --> 00:10:59.392 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
with grace and with joy,
00:10:59.458 --> 00:11:00.559 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
you can touch them.
00:11:00.626 --> 00:11:01.594 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
Our son pastors
00:11:01.660 --> 00:11:02.661 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a great church in Georgia.
00:11:02.728 --> 00:11:03.963 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So, when I'm on the road,
00:11:04.030 --> 00:11:05.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
I'm not there.
00:11:05.097 --> 00:11:06.098 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
But when I'm home,
00:11:06.165 --> 00:11:07.166 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
which is rare enough,
00:11:07.233 --> 00:11:08.267 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I hang around the lobby
00:11:08.334 --> 00:11:09.535 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
of the church and joke around
00:11:09.602 --> 00:11:10.669 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
with people and talk,
00:11:10.736 --> 00:11:11.670 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and I love to joke
00:11:11.737 --> 00:11:13.105 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
with the teenagers.
00:11:13.172 --> 00:11:14.974 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
When the youth pastor
00:11:15.041 --> 00:11:16.776 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
moved on, the kids asked
00:11:16.842 --> 00:11:19.412 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Travis to make me
00:11:19.478 --> 00:11:21.313 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the youth pastor at 77!
00:11:21.380 --> 00:11:23.215 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Well, I didn't take the job;
00:11:23.282 --> 00:11:26.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
one overnight would kill me.
00:11:26.218 --> 00:11:27.553 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
But it was one of
00:11:27.620 --> 00:11:29.155 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the great honors of my life.
00:11:29.221 --> 00:11:30.723 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
That's what I'm saying.
00:11:30.790 --> 00:11:32.525 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You can touch people.
00:11:32.591 --> 00:11:33.659 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We don't have to be
00:11:33.726 --> 00:11:34.827 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
that mean person
00:11:34.894 --> 00:11:36.462 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in the grocery store.
00:11:36.529 --> 00:11:37.530 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
You can touch people
00:11:37.596 --> 00:11:39.065 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
whose lives are --
00:11:39.131 --> 00:11:41.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
everybody's looking for a dad
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.569 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
or a granddad or grandma,
00:11:43.636 --> 00:11:45.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and if we can do it with joy
00:11:45.504 --> 00:11:48.107 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and grace and wisdom.
00:11:48.174 --> 00:11:50.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
You know things.
00:11:50.142 --> 00:11:51.410 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
You know things right now
00:11:51.477 --> 00:11:52.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
that you did not even know
00:11:52.745 --> 00:11:54.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
ten years ago. Don't you!
00:11:54.447 --> 00:11:56.015 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
You can pour that
00:11:56.082 --> 00:11:58.017 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
into people's lives
00:11:58.084 --> 00:11:59.351 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
if you can get the buy-in
00:11:59.418 --> 00:12:00.886 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
to get there.
00:12:00.953 --> 00:12:03.656 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
If you go in angry and smug --
00:12:03.722 --> 00:12:04.890 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Look, one of the problems
00:12:04.957 --> 00:12:06.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
we face in our senior years
00:12:06.225 --> 00:12:07.526 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20%
is fear.
00:12:07.593 --> 00:12:08.627 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
The world around us
00:12:08.694 --> 00:12:09.728 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
is changing, and
00:12:09.795 --> 00:12:11.530 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
it's changing so fast.
00:12:11.597 --> 00:12:12.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Changes like that make
00:12:13.032 --> 00:12:15.801 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
one afraid, you know?
00:12:15.868 --> 00:12:16.869 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
I'll give you
00:12:16.936 --> 00:12:18.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
an example, tattoos.
00:12:18.070 --> 00:12:19.105 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I'm not preaching
00:12:19.171 --> 00:12:20.206 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
against tattoos, okay?
00:12:20.272 --> 00:12:21.340 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Everything's cool.
00:12:21.407 --> 00:12:22.541 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
But when I was a kid,
00:12:22.608 --> 00:12:23.709 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
the only people that
00:12:23.776 --> 00:12:26.479 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
had tattoos were pirates.
00:12:26.545 --> 00:12:27.980 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Now you go to a wedding
00:12:28.047 --> 00:12:29.115 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and the bride comes down
00:12:29.181 --> 00:12:30.382 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the aisle and she's got
00:12:30.449 --> 00:12:31.484 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
a death's head tattooed
00:12:31.550 --> 00:12:33.853 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
between her shoulder blades.
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.623 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
You just say, is she a pirate?
00:12:37.690 --> 00:12:41.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Now, I realize I can let
00:12:41.527 --> 00:12:43.496 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that all make me afraid
00:12:43.562 --> 00:12:46.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
or I can laugh.
00:12:46.665 --> 00:12:48.100 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Do you ever watch TV
00:12:48.167 --> 00:12:49.301 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and they're advertising
00:12:49.368 --> 00:12:51.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
something and you realize
00:12:51.203 --> 00:12:52.705 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
you don't know what it is?
00:12:52.771 --> 00:12:54.073 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
BETTY: A lot!
00:12:54.140 --> 00:12:55.541 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
JAMES: Almost all the ads.
00:12:55.608 --> 00:12:57.710 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
I go, why did they do that?
00:12:57.776 --> 00:12:58.911 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
BETTY: What did it have
00:12:58.978 --> 00:13:00.179 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
to do with the product?
00:13:00.246 --> 00:13:01.213 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
JAMES: They sell you
00:13:01.280 --> 00:13:02.214 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
a car, they teach you
00:13:02.281 --> 00:13:03.215 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
how to wreck it,
00:13:03.282 --> 00:13:05.017 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
how to kill people in it.
00:13:05.084 --> 00:13:06.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
How to do everything
00:13:06.218 --> 00:13:07.753 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
wrong with your car!
00:13:07.820 --> 00:13:09.054 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
MARK: You check out at the
00:13:09.121 --> 00:13:10.823 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
checkout at the grocery store
00:13:10.890 --> 00:13:12.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
line and all the magazines
00:13:12.725 --> 00:13:14.560 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
are there, and you realize
00:13:14.627 --> 00:13:16.629 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
you don't know anybody
00:13:16.695 --> 00:13:17.863 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
on any of these magazines.
00:13:17.930 --> 00:13:18.931 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
You don't know why
00:13:18.998 --> 00:13:20.299 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
they're famous
00:13:20.366 --> 00:13:21.734 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
or what their tragedy
00:13:21.800 --> 00:13:22.935 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
has to do with anything.
00:13:23.002 --> 00:13:24.436 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
It suddenly dawns on you,
00:13:24.503 --> 00:13:25.704 align:start line:85% position:10% size:10%
OMG!
00:13:25.771 --> 00:13:27.806 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Clark Gable's dead!
00:13:27.873 --> 00:13:29.675 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Life has moved on.
00:13:29.742 --> 00:13:31.076 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
Well, that can make you
00:13:31.143 --> 00:13:32.745 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
angry and afraid.
00:13:32.811 --> 00:13:34.847 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
What I'm saying is,
00:13:34.914 --> 00:13:36.248 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
embrace those changes
00:13:36.315 --> 00:13:38.217 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
with joy unspeakable
00:13:38.284 --> 00:13:39.885 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
and full of glory.
00:13:39.952 --> 00:13:42.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
If you can say to that kid --
00:13:42.555 --> 00:13:45.724 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
you go to a restaurant
00:13:45.791 --> 00:13:47.760 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and the waitress
00:13:47.826 --> 00:13:50.563 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
has her tongue pierced.
00:13:50.629 --> 00:13:51.830 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Okay, this is bad.
00:13:51.897 --> 00:13:52.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
The tongue --
00:13:53.032 --> 00:13:55.834 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
no, no, that is disgusting!
00:13:55.901 --> 00:13:57.469 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I can't even talk
00:13:57.536 --> 00:13:58.537 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to her because
00:13:58.604 --> 00:14:00.239 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
[Mumbling]
00:14:00.306 --> 00:14:03.342 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
"Can I help you?"
00:14:03.409 --> 00:14:05.277 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But she's frightened, too.
00:14:05.344 --> 00:14:06.812 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
That's what I learned.
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:08.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
She's frightened.
00:14:08.113 --> 00:14:09.548 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And if I can make her
00:14:09.615 --> 00:14:10.916 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
feel better about herself
00:14:10.983 --> 00:14:13.552 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
and about me, I may be able
00:14:13.619 --> 00:14:14.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
to let God get a word
00:14:14.753 --> 00:14:16.055 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
in edgewise.
00:14:16.121 --> 00:14:17.656 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I'm enjoying these last years
00:14:17.723 --> 00:14:19.058 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
of my life talking
00:14:19.124 --> 00:14:20.192 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
to waitresses with
00:14:20.259 --> 00:14:21.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
pierced tongues
00:14:21.327 --> 00:14:22.928 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and brides with tattoos.
00:14:22.995 --> 00:14:25.831 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I'm okay with life right now.
00:14:25.898 --> 00:14:26.899 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
BETTY: Well, I'm excited
00:14:26.966 --> 00:14:27.967 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
about this book.
00:14:28.033 --> 00:14:29.034 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I think it's just great
00:14:29.101 --> 00:14:30.102 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
because so many people
00:14:30.169 --> 00:14:31.170 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
our age, they think, oh,
00:14:31.237 --> 00:14:32.371 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
I'm just going to sit down,
00:14:32.438 --> 00:14:33.439 align:start line:63% position:10% size:25%
I'm tired.
00:14:33.505 --> 00:14:34.707 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
I'm just going to sit here
00:14:34.773 --> 00:14:35.774 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
in my chair until
00:14:35.841 --> 00:14:36.842 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
God takes me home.
00:14:36.909 --> 00:14:37.910 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
Well, that's no fun!
00:14:37.977 --> 00:14:38.978 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
MARK: It is no fun.
00:14:39.044 --> 00:14:40.045 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
There's no use.
00:14:40.112 --> 00:14:41.113 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
BETTY: There's no use.
00:14:41.180 --> 00:14:42.181 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I want to live till
00:14:42.248 --> 00:14:43.249 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Jesus comes; he takes me
00:14:43.315 --> 00:14:44.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
or he comes back.
00:14:44.717 --> 00:14:46.652 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I want to be full servant
00:14:46.719 --> 00:14:47.853 align:start line:85% position:10% size:18%
to him.
00:14:47.920 --> 00:14:48.921 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
That's what James and I are
00:14:48.988 --> 00:14:49.989 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
trying to inspire
00:14:50.055 --> 00:14:51.323 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
people to do.
00:14:51.390 --> 00:14:52.458 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
God still has something
00:14:52.524 --> 00:14:53.626 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
for us to do.
00:14:53.692 --> 00:14:54.660 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
MARK: Of course!
00:14:54.727 --> 00:14:55.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And you're proving it
00:14:55.761 --> 00:14:56.729 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
with your own lives
00:14:56.795 --> 00:14:57.830 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and your ministry.
00:14:57.896 --> 00:14:58.998 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
It's self-defensive, too.
00:14:59.064 --> 00:15:00.065 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Look, I always tell
00:15:00.132 --> 00:15:01.267 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
senior citizens, when that
00:15:01.333 --> 00:15:02.334 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
nurse is coming towards you
00:15:02.401 --> 00:15:04.169 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
with a hypodermic in her hand,
00:15:04.236 --> 00:15:07.640 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
don't be mean to her.
00:15:07.706 --> 00:15:11.443 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
That's a moment for nice.
00:15:11.510 --> 00:15:14.213 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
It's a strange world.
00:15:14.280 --> 00:15:16.382 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
And I listened the other day
00:15:16.448 --> 00:15:17.783 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to the flight attendant
00:15:17.850 --> 00:15:18.851 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
on the plane.
00:15:18.917 --> 00:15:20.019 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I'm on planes, just like
00:15:20.085 --> 00:15:21.320 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
you are, all the time.
00:15:21.387 --> 00:15:22.454 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I listened to her little
00:15:22.521 --> 00:15:26.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
patter, no social media
00:15:26.425 --> 00:15:27.559 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and all those things,
00:15:27.626 --> 00:15:29.361 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and I realized there was
00:15:29.428 --> 00:15:31.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
nothing that she said
00:15:31.163 --> 00:15:32.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
that would have been
00:15:32.398 --> 00:15:34.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
intelligible to an American
00:15:34.199 --> 00:15:35.801 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
30 years ago.
00:15:35.868 --> 00:15:37.136 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
There was not one word
00:15:37.202 --> 00:15:38.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
that she said.
00:15:38.304 --> 00:15:39.338 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Look, when I was a kid,
00:15:39.405 --> 00:15:40.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
social media meant talking
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:43.008 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
at a drive-in movie.
00:15:43.075 --> 00:15:47.613 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
There was no cell phones.
00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:50.582 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
She says, "Put your devices
00:15:50.649 --> 00:15:53.285 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
into flight mode." Okay.
00:15:53.352 --> 00:15:55.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
What does that even mean?
00:15:55.287 --> 00:15:56.388 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But it does mean things
00:15:56.455 --> 00:15:57.890 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to people now.
00:15:57.956 --> 00:15:58.924 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
I have to know
00:15:58.991 --> 00:16:00.192 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
what it means.
00:16:00.259 --> 00:16:01.527 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I have a podcast.
00:16:01.593 --> 00:16:02.761 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
What's a podcast?
00:16:02.828 --> 00:16:04.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I thought that meant throwing
00:16:04.163 --> 00:16:06.098 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
cotton balls at people.
00:16:06.165 --> 00:16:07.900 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
But now I have a podcast.
00:16:07.966 --> 00:16:09.034 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
Here we are.
00:16:09.101 --> 00:16:10.102 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
We do what we do.
00:16:10.169 --> 00:16:11.370 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
I'm with Betty,
00:16:11.437 --> 00:16:13.505 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I'm not going to sit back
00:16:13.572 --> 00:16:15.107 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and sit down and let
00:16:15.174 --> 00:16:17.276 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
old age happen to me.
00:16:17.343 --> 00:16:19.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
I'm going to be going at this.
00:16:19.745 --> 00:16:21.880 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I hope that God will give me
00:16:21.947 --> 00:16:23.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the grace to tell somebody
00:16:23.248 --> 00:16:25.784 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
a joke on my deathbed.
00:16:25.851 --> 00:16:27.252 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
BETTY: It's just like
00:16:27.319 --> 00:16:28.587 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
with the cell phones
00:16:28.654 --> 00:16:31.690 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and the texting, my kids
00:16:31.757 --> 00:16:33.892 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and grandkids can text
00:16:33.959 --> 00:16:35.961 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
almost before I send mine.
00:16:36.028 --> 00:16:37.296 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
Answer me.
00:16:37.363 --> 00:16:38.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
It's like I just texted that
00:16:38.931 --> 00:16:39.998 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and I've already got
00:16:40.065 --> 00:16:41.033 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
an answer back.
00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:42.534 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
And here I am trying to just
00:16:42.601 --> 00:16:43.702 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
-- it may take me ten minutes
00:16:43.769 --> 00:16:44.837 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to get the answer
00:16:44.903 --> 00:16:46.004 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
back to them.
00:16:46.071 --> 00:16:47.039 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
MARK: Well, pick up
00:16:47.106 --> 00:16:48.173 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the phone and call.
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:49.241 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
BETTY: I'd rather them
00:16:49.308 --> 00:16:50.275 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20%
call me.
00:16:50.342 --> 00:16:51.643 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
But that's okay.
00:16:51.710 --> 00:16:52.978 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
It's okay.
00:16:53.045 --> 00:16:54.012 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
JAMES: I want to tell you
00:16:54.079 --> 00:16:55.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
something.
00:16:55.247 --> 00:16:56.715 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We come on the air,
00:16:56.782 --> 00:16:57.883 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
you know that we're going
00:16:57.950 --> 00:16:59.451 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
to do our best to get
00:16:59.518 --> 00:17:00.886 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
God's arms around somebody
00:17:00.953 --> 00:17:01.887 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that thought nobody ever
00:17:01.954 --> 00:17:03.489 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
even knew they were alive,
00:17:03.555 --> 00:17:04.823 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
or care if they were
00:17:04.890 --> 00:17:05.891 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
alive or dead.
00:17:05.958 --> 00:17:06.959 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
We do help
00:17:07.025 --> 00:17:08.026 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the least of these.
00:17:08.093 --> 00:17:09.361 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We, meaning you and us
00:17:09.428 --> 00:17:10.429 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
together.
00:17:10.496 --> 00:17:11.764 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
As a matter of fact,
00:17:11.830 --> 00:17:12.831 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Mark went with us
00:17:12.898 --> 00:17:13.899 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to the mission fields.
00:17:13.966 --> 00:17:15.167 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
We do so much in harmony
00:17:15.234 --> 00:17:17.469 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
with one another because
00:17:17.536 --> 00:17:18.570 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we not only have joy
00:17:18.637 --> 00:17:20.072 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
in our heart but we have
00:17:20.139 --> 00:17:21.607 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the compassion of the Lord
00:17:21.673 --> 00:17:22.641 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
for people who are
00:17:22.708 --> 00:17:23.942 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
the least of these.
00:17:24.009 --> 00:17:26.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But, I'm convinced that
00:17:27.045 --> 00:17:29.515 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Mark is going to continue
00:17:29.581 --> 00:17:30.682 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
getting people to live
00:17:30.749 --> 00:17:32.251 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
on the bright side
00:17:32.317 --> 00:17:34.119 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
while looking to the light
00:17:34.186 --> 00:17:35.487 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and letting that light,
00:17:35.554 --> 00:17:36.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
his light shine
00:17:36.889 --> 00:17:38.190 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
wherever they are.
00:17:38.257 --> 00:17:39.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Mark, I want to get
00:17:39.425 --> 00:17:40.759 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
everybody here to ask
00:17:40.826 --> 00:17:41.827 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
for this book.
00:17:41.894 --> 00:17:42.895 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We're going to ask you
00:17:42.961 --> 00:17:44.263 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to help us do what Mark
00:17:44.329 --> 00:17:45.330 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and I did together
00:17:45.397 --> 00:17:46.398 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in the early years
00:17:46.465 --> 00:17:47.466 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
of our relationship,
00:17:47.533 --> 00:17:49.234 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and that was rescue girls
00:17:49.301 --> 00:17:50.402 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
from trafficking.
00:17:50.469 --> 00:17:52.171 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Also, rescue children
00:17:52.237 --> 00:17:53.305 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
that were about
00:17:53.372 --> 00:17:54.540 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to be trafficked or were
00:17:54.606 --> 00:17:56.341 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
about to be sold foolishly
00:17:56.408 --> 00:17:57.910 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
to a trafficker.
00:17:57.976 --> 00:17:59.111 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
We did this.
00:17:59.178 --> 00:18:00.512 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We did it in Thailand.
00:18:00.579 --> 00:18:02.080 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
We did it in the mountains.
00:18:02.147 --> 00:18:03.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
MARK: We're still doing it!
00:18:03.415 --> 00:18:04.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
JAMES: We're still doing it.
00:18:04.716 --> 00:18:05.751 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
We went to China and
00:18:05.818 --> 00:18:06.819 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
you saw what we were
00:18:06.885 --> 00:18:08.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
doing there.
00:18:08.086 --> 00:18:09.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
We got the adoption business
00:18:09.288 --> 00:18:10.222 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
turned over to where
00:18:10.289 --> 00:18:11.390 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
it would be legal
00:18:11.457 --> 00:18:13.725 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and not plundering everybody.
00:18:13.792 --> 00:18:14.860 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
These were things
00:18:14.927 --> 00:18:15.961 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
you and I did together.
00:18:16.028 --> 00:18:17.029 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
But one of the things
00:18:17.095 --> 00:18:18.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
you've always done
00:18:18.163 --> 00:18:19.231 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
is you've helped us
00:18:19.298 --> 00:18:20.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to have our day brightened
00:18:20.632 --> 00:18:21.934 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
by the reality of the presence
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:23.869 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
of God and the joy of the Lord
00:18:23.936 --> 00:18:25.204 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that he puts in us.
00:18:25.270 --> 00:18:26.371 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
Do you believe that
00:18:26.438 --> 00:18:28.140 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
if people would read the book
00:18:28.207 --> 00:18:29.541 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
they would actually find
00:18:29.608 --> 00:18:31.577 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
inspiration in doing
00:18:31.643 --> 00:18:32.744 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
what you have implied
00:18:32.811 --> 00:18:33.946 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
in this title?
00:18:34.012 --> 00:18:35.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
MARK: Yes, one of
00:18:35.113 --> 00:18:36.248 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the whole chapters is,
00:18:36.315 --> 00:18:37.349 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
each chapter is "Keep on…"
00:18:37.416 --> 00:18:38.450 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
Keep on with something.
00:18:38.517 --> 00:18:39.585 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
"Keep on Forgiving."
00:18:39.651 --> 00:18:42.054 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
But one is "Keep on Giving."
00:18:42.120 --> 00:18:43.989 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
A whole chapter on giving.
00:18:44.056 --> 00:18:46.158 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
As we get older, we tend
00:18:46.225 --> 00:18:48.727 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to let everything occlude.
00:18:48.794 --> 00:18:50.796 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Certainly, some revenue
00:18:50.863 --> 00:18:52.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
streams can go down and
00:18:52.097 --> 00:18:53.765 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I understand all that.
00:18:53.832 --> 00:18:56.301 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
But the fear that sets in
00:18:56.368 --> 00:18:57.503 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
in our senior years can
00:18:57.569 --> 00:18:59.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
cause us to quit giving.
00:18:59.204 --> 00:19:00.873 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
We quit tithing
00:19:00.939 --> 00:19:01.940 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
to our churches.
00:19:02.007 --> 00:19:03.141 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
We quit giving to missions.
00:19:03.208 --> 00:19:05.611 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We quit supporting.
00:19:05.677 --> 00:19:06.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
There are people right now,
00:19:07.045 --> 00:19:08.080 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
seniors in America,
00:19:08.146 --> 00:19:09.715 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
that are holding
00:19:09.781 --> 00:19:12.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a vast fortune in America.
00:19:12.784 --> 00:19:14.319 align:start line:85% position:10% size:13%
Huge!
00:19:14.386 --> 00:19:15.787 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I say this is the time
00:19:15.854 --> 00:19:16.955 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
in our lives when we should
00:19:17.022 --> 00:19:18.390 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
be more generous.
00:19:18.457 --> 00:19:19.958 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Don't let fear cause you
00:19:20.025 --> 00:19:21.627 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to grip what you have.
00:19:21.693 --> 00:19:22.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
You spend your
00:19:22.895 --> 00:19:24.029 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
whole life giving.
00:19:24.096 --> 00:19:25.130 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
In your senior years,
00:19:25.197 --> 00:19:26.298 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
give generously,
00:19:26.365 --> 00:19:27.366 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
give graciously,
00:19:27.432 --> 00:19:28.433 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and give with faith.
00:19:28.500 --> 00:19:29.501 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
God will take care of us.
00:19:29.568 --> 00:19:30.903 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
Keep on giving.
00:19:30.969 --> 00:19:32.271 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
JAMES: Mark, I want to ask
00:19:32.337 --> 00:19:33.939 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
our viewers to just look in
00:19:34.006 --> 00:19:37.242 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
on our mission director
00:19:37.309 --> 00:19:38.544 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
who has been a pastor,
00:19:38.610 --> 00:19:39.545 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
a wonderful father,
00:19:39.611 --> 00:19:41.113 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
wonderful man; been with us
00:19:41.179 --> 00:19:43.081 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
for 25 or 30 years.
00:19:43.148 --> 00:19:44.783 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
But just listen.
00:19:44.850 --> 00:19:45.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
He's there in the midst
00:19:46.051 --> 00:19:47.452 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
of the suffering of those
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:49.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
who are being trafficked.
00:19:49.288 --> 00:19:51.189 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And you, our viewers,
00:19:51.256 --> 00:19:53.392 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
have given so many,
00:19:53.458 --> 00:19:55.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
literally millions now
00:19:55.527 --> 00:19:57.529 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
an opportunity to live.
00:19:57.596 --> 00:19:59.131 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I want you to watch
00:19:59.197 --> 00:20:00.832 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and I want you to help
00:20:00.899 --> 00:20:02.868 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
put God's arms around
00:20:02.935 --> 00:20:04.570 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the trafficked in the area
00:20:04.636 --> 00:20:06.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that he's referring to.
00:20:16.281 --> 00:20:19.318 align:start line:10% position:20% size:70%
JOHN: You look behind me and
it sounds like a big party
00:20:19.384 --> 00:20:23.155 align:center line:10% position:63% size:58%
but all I see
is brokenness and pain.
00:20:23.221 --> 00:20:27.593 align:center line:10% position:68% size:45%
It's sorrow,
regret, and shame.
00:20:29.995 --> 00:20:32.130 align:start line:79% position:20% size:60%
I can tell you right now
there's a thousand girls
00:20:32.197 --> 00:20:36.234 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
right behind me who did not
wake up at seven years old
00:20:36.301 --> 00:20:41.773 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
and think I want to do this
for the rest of my life.
00:20:41.840 --> 00:20:46.178 align:start line:79% position:28% size:43%
As a dad,
I am just broken.
00:20:49.715 --> 00:20:51.750 align:start line:79% position:20% size:58%
Beyond all the lights
and everything you see,
00:20:51.817 --> 00:20:53.819 align:center line:79% position:50% size:73%
and as Americans,
you think people choose this.
00:20:53.885 --> 00:20:55.854 align:start line:79% position:13% size:73%
I know no little girl woke up
thinking they wanted
00:20:55.921 --> 00:20:58.423 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
to be a go-go dancer
or a prostitute,
00:20:58.490 --> 00:21:01.560 align:center line:85% position:50% size:60%
or a massage bar worker.
00:21:01.627 --> 00:21:04.696 align:start line:79% position:25% size:48%
I'm a dad!
Don't tell me that.
00:21:04.763 --> 00:21:06.832 align:center line:85% position:50% size:35%
I know better.
00:21:06.898 --> 00:21:09.568 align:start line:79% position:33% size:35%
Nobody chooses
this life.
00:21:12.104 --> 00:21:14.106 align:start line:85% position:25% size:48%
It's chosen because
00:21:14.172 --> 00:21:16.875 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
there seems
to be no other hope.
00:21:19.878 --> 00:21:21.613 align:start line:79% position:28% size:45%
If I can wrap them
all up in my arms,
00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:24.016 align:center line:85% position:50% size:73%
and say there's a better way.
00:21:24.082 --> 00:21:26.585 align:center line:85% position:50% size:40%
There is a hope.
00:21:28.987 --> 00:21:34.259 align:start line:79% position:23% size:55%
This is what I know,
Jesus is a better way.
00:21:34.326 --> 00:21:38.997 align:center line:85% position:50% size:38%
It is not this.
00:21:40.632 --> 00:21:42.701 align:start line:79% position:25% size:48%
Here's some amazing
mission partners
00:21:42.768 --> 00:21:44.803 align:center line:79% position:50% size:38%
that are giving
their lives;
00:21:44.870 --> 00:21:48.540 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
sacrificed everything
to help young girls,
00:21:48.607 --> 00:21:53.111 align:center line:79% position:50% size:38%
young boys find
a better way.
00:21:53.178 --> 00:21:57.883 align:start line:74% position:20% size:60%
I want to do,
and I'm asking you
to do everything you can
00:21:57.949 --> 00:22:01.486 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
to keep them here
so that young people
00:22:01.553 --> 00:22:03.855 align:center line:79% position:50% size:35%
can have
a better life.
00:22:03.922 --> 00:22:05.957 align:start line:79% position:18% size:63%
Thank you for helping us.
God bless you.
00:22:06.024 --> 00:22:08.326 align:center line:79% position:50% size:30%
We love you.
We need you.
00:22:08.393 --> 00:22:11.530 align:start line:79% position:18% size:65%
We need you more now
than probably ever before.
00:22:11.596 --> 00:22:13.832 align:center line:85% position:50% size:45%
We need your help.
00:22:15.734 --> 00:22:17.269 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
JAMES: In that area
00:22:17.335 --> 00:22:18.537 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
of Southeast Asia,
00:22:18.603 --> 00:22:19.638 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
we've been normally having
00:22:19.705 --> 00:22:20.772 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to rent property.
00:22:20.839 --> 00:22:22.441 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
There's no rent properties.
00:22:22.507 --> 00:22:23.542 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You saw the beautiful
00:22:23.608 --> 00:22:24.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
Destiny House
00:22:24.776 --> 00:22:25.711 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
that we built.
00:22:25.777 --> 00:22:26.945 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
A beautiful outreach.
00:22:27.012 --> 00:22:27.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
You've seen many of
00:22:28.046 --> 00:22:29.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the places we've built.
00:22:29.114 --> 00:22:30.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
We've got basically,
00:22:30.248 --> 00:22:31.450 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
a big building like a hotel
00:22:31.516 --> 00:22:33.185 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
we can renovate and move
00:22:33.251 --> 00:22:34.653 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
50 girls into it; I have
00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:36.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
an idea it can go past that.
00:22:36.888 --> 00:22:38.023 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But we're going to have
00:22:38.090 --> 00:22:40.125 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
to have over $1 million.
00:22:40.192 --> 00:22:41.259 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Would you give us
00:22:41.326 --> 00:22:45.363 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
a $1.25 million we need
00:22:45.430 --> 00:22:46.698 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to give precious girls
00:22:46.765 --> 00:22:48.767 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
a chance in life?
00:22:48.834 --> 00:22:50.102 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
In Jesus name.
00:22:50.168 --> 00:22:51.970 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
There's not a better place
00:22:52.037 --> 00:22:53.305 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
for somebody to invest money
00:22:53.371 --> 00:22:54.606 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in an outreach that's
00:22:54.673 --> 00:22:55.707 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
any more effective and
00:22:55.774 --> 00:22:57.375 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
does any more to set people
00:22:57.442 --> 00:22:59.177 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
free from literally living
00:22:59.244 --> 00:23:00.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in hell than doing
00:23:00.645 --> 00:23:01.747 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the kind of outreaches
00:23:01.813 --> 00:23:02.781 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
we're doing.
00:23:02.848 --> 00:23:03.882 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
MARK: Absolutely!
00:23:03.949 --> 00:23:05.183 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
There are people that
00:23:05.250 --> 00:23:07.819 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
have the resources.
00:23:07.886 --> 00:23:09.087 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
They ask themselves
00:23:09.154 --> 00:23:10.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
all the wrong questions,
00:23:10.889 --> 00:23:11.890 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
how will I be able
00:23:11.957 --> 00:23:12.924 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to handle this?
00:23:12.991 --> 00:23:13.992 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
How can I hold on to this?
00:23:14.059 --> 00:23:15.427 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
How can I keep this?
00:23:15.494 --> 00:23:17.562 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And now is not the time
00:23:17.629 --> 00:23:18.663 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
to grip it.
00:23:18.730 --> 00:23:19.931 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Now's the time to invest it
00:23:19.998 --> 00:23:20.999 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
in Kingdom work
00:23:21.066 --> 00:23:22.067 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
just like this.
00:23:22.134 --> 00:23:23.468 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
JAMES: Absolutely.
00:23:23.802 --> 00:23:25.170 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
We want to ask you right now
00:23:25.237 --> 00:23:27.005 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
to go get your bank card
00:23:27.072 --> 00:23:28.673 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
and use it like a check.
00:23:28.740 --> 00:23:30.275 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
Please go get it.
00:23:30.342 --> 00:23:32.477 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
I know you want to do this.
00:23:32.544 --> 00:23:35.046 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
It takes $128 average
00:23:35.113 --> 00:23:36.882 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
to reach, rescue,
00:23:36.948 --> 00:23:38.517 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
and begin to restore someone
00:23:38.583 --> 00:23:40.385 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
in this area.
00:23:40.452 --> 00:23:41.553 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
But we're going to need
00:23:41.620 --> 00:23:43.455 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
$1.25 million and we've got
00:23:43.522 --> 00:23:44.723 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
a building right now
00:23:44.790 --> 00:23:45.991 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
that's going to be perfect.
00:23:46.057 --> 00:23:47.192 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
It's a miracle and
00:23:47.259 --> 00:23:48.393 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
it's going to be a miracle
00:23:48.460 --> 00:23:50.495 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
life-changer for so many.
00:23:50.562 --> 00:23:51.963 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
Would you please
00:23:52.030 --> 00:23:53.765 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
get that bank card?
00:23:53.832 --> 00:23:55.033 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
Would you dial the number
00:23:55.100 --> 00:23:56.701 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
that you see there
00:23:56.768 --> 00:23:58.136 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
and make the gift?
00:23:58.203 --> 00:23:59.471 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
Use that bank card
00:23:59.538 --> 00:24:00.705 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
like a check.
00:24:00.772 --> 00:24:01.740 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
If you write a check,
00:24:01.807 --> 00:24:02.974 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
make it to LIFE but call us
00:24:03.041 --> 00:24:04.376 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
and tell us you're mailing it.
00:24:04.442 --> 00:24:05.443 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
Please do it.
00:24:05.510 --> 00:24:06.945 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
You can go online
00:24:07.012 --> 00:24:08.146 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
and make the gift.
00:24:08.213 --> 00:24:09.181 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
We'll gladly send you
00:24:09.247 --> 00:24:10.649 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
Mark Rutland's book.
00:24:10.715 --> 00:24:12.083 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
I think everything
00:24:12.150 --> 00:24:14.252 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
he's written is a blessing.
00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:15.353 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
Dr. David Jeremiah is one
00:24:15.420 --> 00:24:16.454 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
of the greatest blessings
00:24:16.521 --> 00:24:17.656 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
on the planet.
00:24:17.722 --> 00:24:18.723 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
You know he's over here
00:24:18.790 --> 00:24:19.825 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
shaking his head; he is.
00:24:19.891 --> 00:24:22.093 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
This is daily devotionals.
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:23.161 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
As a matter of fact,
00:24:23.228 --> 00:24:24.229 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
its got a place where
00:24:24.296 --> 00:24:25.297 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
you can tap, or I forget
00:24:25.363 --> 00:24:26.665 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
what they call that app
00:24:26.731 --> 00:24:27.732 align:start line:10% position:10% size:30%
that you do.
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:29.100 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
BETTY: One of those things
00:24:29.167 --> 00:24:30.168 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
we were talking about.
00:24:30.235 --> 00:24:31.570 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
JAMES: One of those things
00:24:31.636 --> 00:24:32.671 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
we were talking about
00:24:32.737 --> 00:24:33.738 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
that older people
00:24:33.805 --> 00:24:34.806 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
don't understand.
00:24:34.873 --> 00:24:36.174 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
But you can actually listen
00:24:36.241 --> 00:24:37.242 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
to the message.
00:24:37.309 --> 00:24:38.376 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
It's a devotional.
00:24:38.443 --> 00:24:39.544 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
You'll love this.
00:24:39.611 --> 00:24:42.514 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
And then we want to give you
00:24:42.581 --> 00:24:43.815 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
"The Lion of Judah"
00:24:43.882 --> 00:24:45.383 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
with the cross.
00:24:45.450 --> 00:24:47.485 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
It is awesome.
00:24:47.552 --> 00:24:50.755 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
Please help us give life
00:24:50.822 --> 00:24:52.390 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
and freedom to these
00:24:52.457 --> 00:24:53.525 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
precious ones that have
00:24:53.592 --> 00:24:55.694 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
been trafficked for so long.
