HELLO.
I'M BRIAN WARREN.
I'M LAURA-LYNN TYLER
THOMPSON.
THANKS FOR JOINING US.
LAURA-LYNN, YOU KNOW, ONE OF
THE BEST THINGS, I MEAN, AFTER
THE OLYMPICS IT WAS REALLY
EXCITING, BUT WHEN YOU SEE
SOMEONE DO SOMETHING SO WELL, IT
TELLS YOU THAT -- EXCELLENCE IS
POSSIBLE.
YES.
YOU CAN DO THAT.
YEAH.
BUT I THINK THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IS NOT JUST
PERFORMING EXCELLENCE, BUT
A LIFE LIVED WELL.
YES.
YOU KNOW --
DO YOU KNOW ANYBODY LIKE
THAT?
WE CANNOT ALL BE PERFORMERS
THAT ARE OLYMPIC GOLD METALISTS
BUT WE CAN DO THE BEST THAT WHAT
WE DO.
I REMEMBER, BRIAN, TJ JAKE SAID
SOMETHING WHEN HE WAS PREACHING
ONE TIME, HE SAID --
YOU LIKE THE BROTHER
PREACHER, DON'T YOU?
I DO, BRIAN, THAT'S WHY I
LIKE YOU.
THAT'S WHY I LIKE YOU.
YEAH.
YEAH.
TUNE IT UP A LITTLE BIT.
YOU KNOW WHAT HE UNDERSTAND
HE SAID WHEN YOU START DOING
WHAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO
THERE AIN'T NOBODY THAT CAN DO
IT LIKE YOU AND YOU ARE BAD WHEN
YOU DO IT.
I THOUGHT, I WANT TO BE BAD WHEN
I DO IT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
IN A GOOD WAY.
IF I SHUT MY EYES, I WOULD
HAVE SAID, GET READY, GET READY,
GET READY, GET READY.
SOMEONE WILL GET THAT ON THE WAY
HOME.
ON TODAY'S SHOW, YOU'LL SEE TWO
WOMEN WHO ARE MAKING MOST OUT OF
THEIR LIVES THANKS TO A LITTLE
HELP FROM GOD.
PUTTING ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF
THE OTHER IS COMMON PRACTICE FOR
MOST OF US.
BUT FOR LISA RICHMOND, IT MEANT
EXCRUCIATING PAIN.
YOU'LL SEE HOW HER TV PLAYED A
KEY ROLE IN PUTTING THE BOUNCE
BACK IN HER STEP.
YES.
AND VULINSA CHRISTOPHER KNEW
BOTH SIDES OF FORGIVENESS.
SHE DEALT WITH THE UNSPEAKABLE
ABUSE IN HER LIFE, BUT IT ONLY
WHEN SHE LEARNED TO FORGIVE THAT
HER LIFE BEGAN TO CHANGE.
YOU'LL SEE HOW LIFE FREED HER IN
HER INCREDIBLE STORY.
I CONTINUE MY ON GOING SERIES
ON WHAT YOU BELIEVE, CANADA, AS
I HIT THE STREETS TO TALK ABOUT
FAITH AND I SHARE MY FASCINATING
CONVERSATION WITH A WOMAN.
BUT FIRST, LISA RICHMOND SHARES
THE STORY OF HOW SHE WAS HEALED
BY WATCHING TV.
FOR FIVE YEARS LISA RICHMOND
LIVED WITH SEVERE PAIN IN HER
FEET.
IT EFFECTED MY WHOLE FOOT
REALLY, BUT MOSTLY THE ARCH OF
MY FOOT.
I EXPERIENCED A LOT OF PAIN.
IT WOULD GET WORSE WHEN I
EXERCISE OR TRY TO WALK.
EVEN WALKING MY DOG BECAME
A TOTAL PAIN.
IT FELT LIKE NEEDLES JUST
STICKING, JUST TINY NEEDLES
STICKING ME THROUGH THE ARCHES
OF MY FEET.
HER DOCTOR'S DIAGNOSIS WAS
PLANTER FASCIITIS.
A PAINFUL CONDITION CAUSED BY
STRAINED LIGAMENTS.
THEY BASICALLY SAID WEAR
BETTER FOOTWEAR, MORE SUPPORT
FOOT WEAR WITH AFTER SUPPORT AND
A LITTLE BIT OF A HE.
I WAS ESSENTIALLY WEARING HEELS
THAT'S MANY GRANDPARENTS WEAR.
( LAUGHTER ).
BEING A 20 SOMETHING IS A LITTLE
DEPRESSING.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I WAS THINKING FOR THE REST OF
MY LIFE I'M GOING TO HAVE TO
LIFE WITH THIS CONDITION.
THAT'S WHEN LISA SAW AN
EPISODE OF "THE 700 CLUB
CANADA."
IT WAS NEARING THE END OF
THE, THE SHOW.
THEY WERE STARTING TO PRAY FOR
PEOPLE.
I WAS JUST THINKING, MAN, THAT
WOULD BE REALLY COOL IF THAT
HAPPENED TO ME, BUT NO WAY, LIKE
THIS SHOW IS TOO BIG.
THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE WATCHING.
SO MANY PEOPLE WITH WAY BIGGER,
MORE IMPORTANT ISSUES THAN MY
LITTLE FOOT PROBLEM.
THEY STARTED TALKING ABOUT HOW
THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE WITH
A FOOT PROBLEM THAT'S BEEN
HAPPENING, GOING ON FOR QUITE
A WHILE.
THERE IS SOMEONE, YOU HAVE
A CONDITION WITH THE ARCHES OF
YOUR FEET.
IT IS VERY PAINFUL.
GOD IS HEALING THAT FOR YOU
RIGHT NOW.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE
DISCOMFORT AGAIN.
I ACTUALLY LAID BOTH OF MY
HANDS ON MY FOOT AND CLOSED MY
EYES AND PRAYED WITH THEM.
I FELT JUST THE POWER OF GOD
COME UPON ME.
I FELT THIS WARMTH GO THROUGH MY
BODY.
I KNEW AT THAT MOMENT THAT GOD
WAS DOING SOMETHING.
I COULD NOT DENY THAT GOD WAS
DOING SOMETHING AT THAT MOMENT.
OUT OF FAITH, JUST SLOWLY STOOD
UP, BUT ONE FOOT ON THE GROUND
AND THEN THE OTHER AND STOOD UP
AND FELT NOTHING.
FELT NOTHING AT ALL.
THE NEXT DAY, LISA TOOK HER
DOG FOR A WALK.
GOT MY SNEAKERS ON AND PUT
HIS LEASH ON.
WE HEADED OUT.
CAME ALL OF THE WAY BACK NO
PAIN, NOTHING.
THE PAIN WAS NO LONGER AN ISSUE.
I DON'T WAKE UP AND DREAD
STANDING OR WALKING MY DOG OR
DOING THE THINGS THAT NORMAL
PEOPLE DON'T THINK ABOUT.
GOD IS BIG AS HE IS, IS MIGHTY
AND POWERFUL AND ALL KNOWING AS
HE IS, WOULD CARE ENOUGH ABOUT
THE ARCHES OF MY FEET.
[ LAUGHTER ]
TO HEAL THEM.
TO TOUCH THEM.
JUST LEFT ME BREATHLESS.
GOD WILL ALSO LEAVE YOU
BREATHLESS.
I HAVE LIVED MY WHOLE LIFE
SERVING GOD.
TO THIS VERY DAY, HE STILL
LEAVES ME BREATHLESS WITH HIS
POWER.
OVERCOME BY HIS COMPASSION, IN
AWE OF HIS GOODNESS TO US.
MERE SPECS OF DUST THERE.
IS SOMEONE OUT THERE RIGHT NOW,
JUST LIKE IN THIS LAST STORY, WE
SAW THAT SOMEONE WAS TOUCHED BY
THE POWER OF GOD THROUGH WHAT
THEY SAW ON TELEVISION.
AS I WAS WRITING THIS, I FELT
THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE WITH
A SHOULDER INJURY.
PERHAPS IT IS THE ROTATOR CUFF
AND THERE IS SOME KIND OF DAMAGE
THAT HAS BEEN DONE.
GOD IS TOUCHING YOU RIGHT NOW.
HE IS RELEASING COMPETE AND
TOTAL WHOLENESS.
IT MAY BE IN THE SCAPULA AREA.
WE ASK IN JESUS' NAME THIS BE
REMOVED.
THERE IS ALSO SOMEONE WITH A LOT
OF PAIN GOING DOWN YOUR RIGHT
LEG EVERY DAY.
GOD IS GOING THE TOUCH YOU THAT
THIS ISSUE WILL BE GONE RIGHT
NOW IN JESUS' NAME.
WE DECLARE, ACCORDING TO 42,
WHICH STATES THAT TO YOU WHO
FEAR MY NAME, THE SON OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL ARISE WITH
HEALING IN HIS WINGS.
FATHER I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD LET
YOUR HEALING WINGS SPREAD OVER
YOUR CHILDREN TODAY.
FOR THOSE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING
HEADACHES AND TUMORS AND CANCER,
WE ASK THAT YOU BEGIN TO COME
OVER THIS LAND IN A MIRACULOUS
WAY THAT SIGNS AND WONDERFUL
FOLLOW YOUR POWER AND ANOINTING.
IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE TODAY WHO
NEEDS HEALING.
CALL THEM AND TELL THEM GOD IS A
MIRACLE WORKING GOD.
JOIN YOUR FAITH WITH THEIRS.
IF THEY WANT US TO PRAY FOR
THEM, ASK THEM TO CALL "THE 700
CLUB CANADA" PRAYER LINE.
BECAUSE WE HAVE FAITH FOR YOUR
ISSUES AND YOUR DISEASES AND
YOUR CONCERNS.
WE BELIEVE THAT GOD IS A
MIRACLE, POWERFUL HEALING GOD.
YOU KNOW, OUR PRAYER LINES
ARE RINGING OFF THE HOOK.
I WANT TO BLEND FAITH RIGHT NOW
WITH ANDRIA IN ONTARIO AND ALSO,
WE HAVE DIANE.
SHE'S JUST ASKING FOR --
INTESTINAL CANCER.
FATHER IN THE NAME OF JESUS WE
BELIEVE YOU.
FOR THE BLOOD OF JESUS ON THOSE
ISSUES AND NEEDS RIGHT NOW.
WE COME INTO AGREEMENT IN JESUS'
NAME.
AMEN.
IF YOU BELIEVE THAT GOD HAS
TOUCHED YOU THROUGH THIS
TIME OF PRAYER,
1-855-759-0700.
GIVE US A CALL.
OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY.
WE WANT TO CELEBRATE WITH YOU.
GOD BLESS.
TOO OFTEN WE CARRY BAGGAGE
FROM OUR PAST.
YOU KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE?
IT AFFECTS EVERYTHING AND
EVERYONE IN OUR LIVES.
IT IS ALWAYS THERE, WEIGHING US
DOWN AND KEEPING US FROM
ACHIEVING TRUE HAPPINESS.
BUT DO YOU KNOW GOD NEVER MEANT
FOR US TO BE TRAPPED IN THE
PAST?
YOU CAN BE FREE OF YOUR BAGGAGE.
LEARN HOW GOD'S FORGIVENESS
LEADS TO CHANGED LIVES AND NEW
BEGINNINGS.
CALL "THE 700 CLUB CANADA."
[ MUSIC ]
THIS LAST YEAR I HAD AN
ADJUSTMENT PERIOD WHERE STRESS
BEGAN TO TAKEOVER MY THOUGHTS.
THE PRESSURE OF ALL OF THE
COMMITMENTS ON MY AGENDA AND THE
SHEER LACK OF TIME TO GET THE
NECESSARY TASKS DONE.
WELL, IT BEGAN TO CONSUME MY
JOY.
I FELT LIKE THE WALKING DEAD.
I WENT FROM ONE APPOINTMENT TO
THE NEXT GRASPING FOR SANITY.
THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN
THE DAY TO GET MY WORK DONE.
I WOULD CALL MY PASTOR AND HE
HAD THE CHURCH PRAY FOR ME.
I KEPT THINKING THE BIBLE SAYS
THAT HIS YOKE IS EASY AND HIS
BURDEN IS LIGHT.
WHY DO I FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN
THROWN INTO THE DEEP END OF
A SWIMMING POOL AND I CANNOT
SWIM?
MY ARMS ARE FLAILING.
I'M GASPING FOR BREATH.
I THINK I'M GOING DOWN FOR THE
COUNT.
IT WAS ALL THAT I COULD DO TO
MAINTAIN MYSELF, AS I GOT DOWN
ON MY KNEES IN BY BEDROOM FLOOR.
I CRIED OUT TO GOD FOR HELP AND
I SAID, GOD, RESCUE ME.
I THOUGHT, IF THE WORD SAYS THAT
WE ARE TO LIVE AN ABUNDANT LIFE,
WHY AM I LIVING IN THIS OVERDONE
MESS.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD TIMES LIKE
THAT?
AM I THE ONLY ONE?
I SAT DOWN AND STARTED TAKING
STOCK OF ALL AT WAS ON MY PLATE
TO SEE IF I COULD CUTBACK, BUT
THE TRUTH IS THAT I KNEW THAT
GOD HAD CALLED ME TO EACH OF THE
LARGE PROJECTS THAT WERE ON MY
DOCKET.
IN HIS MOST GENTLE AND KIND WAY
GOD GAVE ME A PICTURE OF THE
MOVING SIDEWALKS AT THE AIRPORT.
YOU KNOW THE ONES?
IF YOU HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO AND
ARE CARRYING BAGGAGE YOU CAN
STEP INTO THAT FLAT MOVING
SIDEWALK.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WALK.
YOU CAN STAND THERE AND YOU
STILL GET TO WHERE YOU NEED TO
GO.
WITHOUT EXERTING YOUR OWN
ENERGY.
IF YOU DO CHOOSE TO WALK ON THAT
SIDEWALK, YOU GO THREE TIMES AS
FAST.
THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO DO I FEEL
LIKE I'M THE BIONIC WOMAN, YOU
KNOW.
IT FELT LIKE GOD SAID TO MY
HEART, I HAVE PUT THE RESOURCES
IN YOUR LIFE THAT WILL GET YOU
TO WHERE YOU NEED TO BE, BUT
YOU'VE BEEN WALKING ON THE
OUTSIDE OF IT ALL BY YOURSELF.
MANAGE THE ASSETS THAT I HAVE
GIVEN YOU.
I STARTED MAKING A LIST OF ALL
OF THE PEOPLE AND PLACES AND
THINGS THAT GOD HAVE
STRATEGICALLY PLACED IN MY LIFE
TO HELP ME.
I REALIZED I HAD NOT ACCESSED
THE GIFTS AND SUPPORTS BECAUSE I
WAS BUSY DOING LIFE ALONE.
THAT MOVING SIDEWALK HAD BEEN
BESIDE ME ALL ALONG BUT I HAD
CHOSEN TO USE MY OWN STRENGTH TO
WALK.
PASTOR MIKE SENT ME PHILIPPIANS
9:14 AND I LOVE THE WAY THE
AMPLIFIED SAID IT, I HAVE
STRENGTH FOR ALL THINGS IN
CHRIST WHO EMPOWERS ME.
I'LL READY FOR EVERYTHING.
I'M EQUAL TO ANYTHING LOW HIM
WHO INFUSES INNER STRENGTH INTO
ME.
I'M SELF-SUFFICIENT, IN CHRIST
SUFFICIENCY.
I HAD A NEW IDEA NOW OF WHAT HIS
STRENGTH WAS.
IT'S THAT MOVING SIDEWALK THAT'S
ALWAYS BESIDE YOU.
IT'S THE PEOPLE AND THE PLACES
THE RESOURCES THAT HE HAS
MASTERFULLY PROVIDED FOR YOUR
JOURNEY.
GOD NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO
ACCOMPLISH ALL THAT HE HAD FOR
YOU TO DO IT BY YOURSELF.
QUITE FRANKLY, YOU CAN'T.
IF YOU'RE SINKING IN THE DEEP
END TODAY, IS GOD TO OPEN YOUR
EYES TO THE AMPLE ENDOWMENT THAT
HE HAS INTENTIONALLY PLACED IN
YOUR LIFE TO ASSIST YOU.
AMEN.
YOU KNOW, WHEN LAURA-LYNN IS
SPEAKING ABOUT, I BELIEVE IT IS
WHAT GOD IS IMPOSING ON ALL OF
US.
BECAUSE I REALLY BELIEVE IN THIS
CHANGING ECONOMY WHERE THE NEW
UP IS STAYING EVEN AND STOPPING
YOUR EROSION.
WHAT GOD IS ALLOWING US TO DO IS
HE'S REVEALING THE TRUE CHURCH.
THAT TRUE CHURCH IS COMING
FORTH BECAUSE IT IS THE CHURCH
DEPENDING ON HIM.
I WONDER IF GOD IS GETTING YOUR
ATTENTION RIGHT NOW WITH THIS
FATIGUE AND ALSO THIS CHALLENGE.
CAN I PRAY FOR YOU AT THIS
MOMENT?
I BELIEVE THAT GOD WANTS YOU TO
HAVE A REFRESHING TIME AS WELL.
REMEMBER HIS STRENGTH IS MADE
PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.
FATHER IN THE NAME OF JESUS WE
ASK YOU NOW FOR REFRESHMENT FOR
ALL OF THOSE YOU WOULD SPEAK NOW
WHEN MY HEART IS OVERWHELMED.
LEAD ME TO THE ROCK THAT IS
HIGHER THAN I.
IN JESUS' NAME.
LAURA-LYNN TAKES US BACK TO THE
STREETS.
FINDING WHAT WE BELIEVE SHE
TALKS TO A PRECIOUS SEEK LADY.
AND WHO IS YOUR GOD NOW?
WELL, YOU KNOW --
YEAH, SEEK RELIGION.
SEEK RELIGION, DO YOU PRAY
ALL OF THE TIME?
NOT ALL OF THE TIME.
YOU TRY TO WHEN YOU CAN AND BE
A GOOD PERSON OVERALL.
NOW, SHOULDN'T YOU PRAY MORE
OFTEN IF PRAYER WORKS?
WELL, YOU SHOULD TRY TO PRAY
AS MUCH AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN.
YES.
WHY DON'T WE PRAY MORE?
IT COULD BE TIMING OR JUST
LAZINESS.
LAZINESS.
YOU FORGET.
RIGHT.
RIGHT.
HAVE YOU EVER PERSONALLY
REALLY WONDERED LIKE -- WHO
THE -- REAL GOD IS?
HOW YOU KNOW WHO THAT IS?
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT IT THREW?
I'M SURE EVERYONE HAS SOME
DOUBTS AT SOME POINT AND LIFE.
YEAH.
YOU KIND OF COME BACK AND SAY
THIS IS MY GOD, AND WHO I AM AND
WHO I BELIEVE IN.
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHO IS THE
MOST POWERFUL GOD FOR YOU?
WELL, THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD.
THERE IS ONE GOD.
PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT THERE IS
CHRISTIANS, WHERE IT IS -- YOU
KNOW, DIFFERENT RELIGIONS,
EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN WAY OF
BELIEVING IN GOD.
BUT BOTTOM LINE THERE IS ONLY
ONE GOD, JUST BE A GOOD PERSON.
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE
PRAYING TO IS THE RIGHT ONE
THEN?
THIS, THIS --
I DON'T THINK THERE IS ANY
RIGHT OR WRONG.
YOU DON'T?
YOU JUST KIND OF GO WITH YOUR
FEELINGS AND SAY HOW CAN I BE
A BETTER PERSON.
HOW CAN I MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN
SOMEONE'S LIFE OR GIVE BACK TO
COMMUNITY?
HOW CAN I BE A GOOD PERSON JUST
AS A HUMAN BEING.
THIS RELIGION IS THERE
A HELL?
WHEN YOU DIE WHAT IS GOING TO
HAPPEN TO YOU?
I DON'T KNOW.
DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW?
DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW.
I'M A GOOD PERSON, I'M GOING
TO DO A GOOD THING, I DON'T WANT
TO KNOW THE BAD PART.
YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW THE
BAD PART?
BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS
THAT YOU THOUGHT IT WRAPPED UP
BECAUSE YOU HAVE DONE ALL OF
THESE GOOD THINGS.
YES.
YOU TRY TO BE THE BEST THAT
YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, TRY TO SET
GOOD GOALS FOR YOUR FAMILY,
PEOPLE AROUND YOU, WHATEVER.
OKAY, I WILL ASK YOU A REALLY
TOUGH QUESTION, WHAT FINAL
QUESTION, WHAT IF, IS THAT THE
TRUTH IS THAT JESUS IS THE SON
OF GOD AND HE CAME.
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WHOEVER
ACCEPTS HIM AS THE SON OF GOD,
THERE IS NO OTHER NAME BY WHICH
MEN CAN BE SAVED.
WHAT IS THAT IS TRUE?
I DON'T KNOW, I CAN'T ANSWER
THAT QUESTION BECAUSE, YOU KNOW.
I'M NOT AT THAT POINT.
YES.
WHERE I CAN MAKE THAT
DECISION.
I'M STILL TRYING TO LEARN EVERY
DAY WHAT YOU CAN.
SO, I DON'T KNOW OR I WOULD NOT
GO THAT DIRECTION, I'M NOT GOING
TO SAY THAT I'M GOING TO GO THAT
DIRECTION.
YES.
RIGHT.
YOU DON'T KNOW.
RIGHT.
[ MUSIC ]
WELL, I'M SO GRATEFUL FOR THE
PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE WILLING
TO CHAT WITH ME ABOUT VERY
PERSONAL, PERSONAL ISSUES.
I YOU KNOW, I APPRECIATE WHAT
SHE
HAD TO SAY.
SHE WAS BORN INTO A SEEK FAMILY
AND A SEEK RELIGION.
I WAS BORN INTO A CHRISTIAN
FAMILY.
I WAS TAUGHT ABOUT JESUS SINCE I
WAS REALLY YOUNG.
I ASKED MYSELF THE SAME
QUESTION, DO I JUST BELIEVE IN
JESUS BECAUSE I WAS BORN INTO
A CHRISTIAN FAMILY IT THERE CAME
A POINT WHEN I SAID TO SAY, I
EMBRACE THE TRUTH OF WHO JESUS
IS.
I'M WILLING TO DIE BECAUSE I
BELIEVE IN IT SO STRONGLY.
YOU KNOW, BRIAN, EACH AND EVERY
ONE OF US, WE CAN'T JUST HAVE
A CONVICTION THAT IS BASED ON
WHAT WE WERE BORN INTO.
I BELIEVE THAT THERE COME AS
TIME WHEN WE NEED TO EXAMINE AND
EXPLORE AND SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH
LIKE ITS GOLD.

IMPORTANT, LAURA-LYNN, BECAUSE

SAYS THAT CANADA IS A CHRISTIAN

[ MUSIC ]
WELCOME BACK.
UP NEXT, VULINSA CHRISTOPHER
FINDS FREEDOM FROM HER DARK
PAST.
I ACTUALLY NEVER MET MY
MOTHER.
SHE WAS MURDERED HERE IN
MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE.
SO, I NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO HAVE
A RELATIONSHIP WITH HER.
HER MOTHER WAS ROBBED, SHOT
AND LEFT FOR DEAD.
VULINSA WAS 2-YEAR-OLD, HER
MOTHER WAS A PROSTITUTE.
AFTER THE MURDER HER FATHER
ABANDONED HER.
SO, HER ALCOHOL GRANDMOTHER TOOK
CARE OF HER AND HER BROTHER.
IT WAS LONELY.
I HAD TO GROW UP REALLY, REALLY
FAST.
I REMEMBER SO MANY NIGHTS NOT
HAVING ANY FOOD TO EAT.
NOT HAVING ANYONE TO SAY I LOVE
YOU.
I REMEMBER MY GRANDMOTHER BEING
JUST DRUNK ALL OF THE TIME.
YOU KNOW, AT 3, 4, 5,
6-YEAR-OLD, JUST RUNNING OFF AND
TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING TO EAT.
GOING TO NEIGHBOR'S HOMES
WHATEVER.
THAT'S ALL THAT I REALLY
REMEMBER.
NOTHING GOOD ABOUT IT.
WHEN SHE WAS 6, SHE MOVED IN
WITH HER AUNT AND UNCLE, BUT
THEIR HOME WAS NOT A SAFE PLACE
EITHER.
WE WERE GOING TO SCHOOL AND
HAD MEALS EVERY DAY.
BUT -- IT CAME TO A POINT WHERE
HE STARTED TO MOLEST ME.
HE TOLD ME THAT I EVER TOLD
ANYONE THAT MY AUNT WOULDN'T
LOVE ME ANYMORE.
I FELT LIKE SHE WAS THE ONLY
PERSON IN THE WORLD THAT CARED
FOR ME.
HE USED THAT AGAINST ME.
HE STARTED TO MOLEST ME FROM THE
AGE OF 6 TO 12.
I FELT SHAMEFUL.
I FELT LIKE IT WAS SOMETHING I
WAS DOING WRONG.
THE REASON THAT HE WAS DOING IT
TO ME, I FELT I WAS A BURDEN.
SO, SOMETHING MAYBE I HAVE TO DO
THIS IN ORDER FOR ME TO LIVE
HERE.
IT GOT TO A POINT WHERE I WAS
GETTING OLDER AND I KNEW IT
WASN'T RIGHT AND IT HAD TO STOP
AT SOME POINT.
I WANTED TO BE FREE.
I WASN'T FREE, IT WAS LIKE I WAS
IN PRISON AND IT WAS TIME FOR ME
TO BE FREE AND BY ME TELLING IT
WOULD BE TIME FOR ME TO BE FREE.
THAT'S WHEN SHE TOLD A FAMILY
FRIEND ABOUT THE ABUSE.
SHE CONTACTED THE APPROPRIATE
AUTHORITIES.
ANOTHER AUNT TOOK HER INTO HER
HOME.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF CRUELTY
FOLLOWED HER THERE.
I CAME OUT OF THE HOUSE WITH
A NIGHT GOWN ON, A NIGHT GOWN
T-SHIRT.
SHE JUST LOOKED AT ME AND SAID
IT WAS YOUR FAULT, LOOK WHAT YOU
HAVE ON.
ALL OF THE WAY TO THE AGE OF 14,
NO ONE SAID I LOVE YOU, BECAUSE
YOU LOVE YOU.
NO ONE HUGGED ME, OR, YOU KNOW,
HELD ME OR -- I NEVER, I DON'T,
I NEVER KNEW WHAT THAT FELT
LIKE.
I WENT OUT AND I WAS SEEKING
LOVE.
I DIDN'T, MAKE A MISTAKE -- AND
GOT PREGNANT, IT WAS AN
INTENTIONAL THING AT 14 YEARS
OLD, BECAUSE IN MY MIND I FELT
LIKE I WANTED TO LOVE ME.
SO, WHO SAID THAT THEY WOULD
LOVE ME FIRST.
OKAY.
HERE I AM.
WHEN I DID MEET MY KID'S DAD,
THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME.
I WANTED A CHILD.
I FELT LIKE IF I HAD A CHILD,
THEN I ALWAYS HAVE SOMEONE TO
LOVE ME.
SO, AT 14, SHE BECAME
A MOTHER.
SHE HAD A SECOND CHILD BY THE
SAME BOYFRIEND AT 16.
THEIR RELATIONSHIP WAS VOLATILE,
HE CONTROLLED HER EVERY MOVE.
HE WOULDN'T EVEN LET HER LEAVE
THE HOUSE.
I FELT LIKE I WAS IN PRISON.
I FELT TRAPPED.
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
JUST LOST.
A FRIEND ASKED HER TO GO TO
CHURCH.
SHE MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE
HOUSE TO GO.
IT WAS LIKE IT WAS MEANT FOR
ME TO GO ON THIS DAY.
BECAUSE THE FIRST DAY I STEPPED
INTO THE CHURCH MY KID WAS 9, HE
WAS TALKING ABOUT LOVE.
THAT WAS THE ONLY THING I EVER
WANTED.
I DIDN'T WANT ANYTHING BUT FOR
THEM TO LOVE ME.
IT WAS LIKE A LIGHT JUST CAME ON
INSIDE OF ME.
I CRIED THE WHOLE SERVICE.
WHEN -- HE SAID IF YOU WANT
JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR LIFE, IF
YOU WANT THE LOVE OF GOD IN YOUR
LIFE, JUST COME FORWARD.
I RAN.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I LITERALLY RAN.
FROM THAT DAY FORWARD MY LIFE
COMPLETELY CHANGED.
IF I CAN HAVE THIS KIND OF LOVE
AND HE LOVED ME FIRST, THAT'S,
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS
MISSING.
I DIDN'T HAVE TO SEEK LOVE.
GOD LOVED ME THE WHOLE TIME.
SO WHEN I STARTED TO LEARN AND
LEARN ABOUT WHO JESUS WAS, IN
THE GOSPELS, THAT JUST OPENED UP
A WHOLE NEW WORLD FOR ME.
I DIDN'T HAVE TO LIVE BENEATH,
YOU KNOW, WHAT GOD HAS PURPOSED
ME TO LIVE.
SO, AT THAT POINT, I STARTED TO
GET STRONG.
SO, AT 17, SHE LEFT HER
BOYFRIEND.
SHE WAS FREE.
TODAY SHE AND A COSMETOLOGIST.
SHE HAS OWNED A SALON FOR SEVEN
YEARS.
HER CHILDREN ARE BOTH IN COLLEGE
WITH GREAT CAREER PLANS OF THEIR
OWN.
YOU HAVE TO ALLOW GOD TO COME
IN AND HEAL YOUR HEART.
THERE IS ONE BIG KEY IN YOUR
HEALING PROCESS IS FORGIVENESS.
I COULDN'T ALLOW WHAT THEY DID
TO ME KEEP ME FROM MY PURPOSE
AND MY DESTINY.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO HINDER
YOURSELF FROM LIVING THE LIFE
THAT GOD HAS PURPOSED YOU TO
LIVE.
BECAUSE THERE IS NO MUCH MORE ON
THE OTHER SIDE.
IT TAKE AS WHOLE LOT TO HAVE
UNFORGIVENESS IN YOUR HEART,
BUT TO LET IT GO AND BE FREE.
THERE IS FREEDOM AND LIBERATION
IN FORGIVENESS.
AND SHE FOUND THE LOVE SHE
HAS BEEN SEARCHING FOR ALL OF
HER LIFE.
HERE'S MY FATHER.
HE'S MY DADDY.
I HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.
HE'S GIVING.
HE'S LOVING.
HE REWARDS US FOR OBEDIENCES.
HERE'S MY FATHER.
AS THE FATHER, MY HEART
BREAKS WHEN I LOOK AT HER.
WHEN I HEAR OF THE ATROCITIES
THAT WERE COMMITTED AND EVEN
PREPARING FOR THIS, YOU KNOW
WHAT I KEEP SEEING IS A PIECE OF
TAPE, A PIECE OF ELECTRICAL TAPE
THAT IS ON THE MOUTH OF SO MANY
BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE IT IS THEIR
FAULT SOMEHOW AND THEY DID
SOMETHING WRONG.
THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REJECTED
AFTER REJECTED, AFTER REJECTION,
BUT THE BIBLE SAYS SOMETHING
THAT IS SO POWERFUL TODAY, I
WANT YOU TO TAKE THIS.
BECAUSE -- WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO
DO TO BREAK THIS CYCLE IS YOU'RE
GOING TO TAKE THAT TAPE OFF OF
YOUR MOUTH AFTER THIS AND GET
YOUR VOICE BACK.
TAKE YOUR POWER BACK.
THE BIBLE SAYS, BECAUSE STARTED
OFF WITH HER -- PSALMS 27:10, I
DON'T EVEN HAVE TO LOOK AT IT
BECAUSE I KNOW IT BY HEART.
MY MOTHER OR FATHER FORSAKE ME
THEN THE LORD IS GOING TO TAKE
CARE OF ME.
GOD IS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF YOU
TODAY.
BUT YOU GOT TO BREAK THE
SILENCE.
YOU NEVER TOLD ANYONE ABOUT
THIS, BECAUSE THE SHAME IS NOT
ON YOU, BUT WHO DID THAT TO YOU,
BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS TODAY THERE
IS HELP.
I'M GOING PRAY FOR YOU AS I
BRING IN LAURA-LYNN, THERE IS
TWO THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO DO.
YOU HAVE TO FORGIVE YOURSELF
BECAUSE YOU STARTED A BEHAVIOR
PATTERN BECAUSE OF A SYMPATHETIC
TRAUMA, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE TO
FORGIVE THE PERSON THAT HURT YOU
AS WELL.
I KNOW THAT'S DIFFICULT, BUT
ONCE YOU DO THAT, YOU WILL BE
FREE.
TODAY IS YOUR BEST DAY.
BRIAN, I'M THINKING ABOUT
THAT WOMAN OUT THERE THAT'S JUST
SO BROKEN.
YOU STILL HAVE WOUNDS THAT, IT
FEELS LIKE THEY ARE JUST GAPING
WIDE OPEN.
THEY HAVEN'T HEALED.
THERE IS STILL BLOOD OOZING,
OOZING FROM IT.
GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE
BLINDS UP THE BROKERAGE HEARTED
AND CLOSE TO THE ONE THAT FEELS
SUCH TRAUMA AND PAIN IN YOUR
HEART.
GOD LOVES YOU.
HE HAS SEEN EVERYTHING THAT
HAPPENED.
HE KNOWS YOU, HE KNOWS YOUR
HEART.
HE KNOWS YOUR MOTIVES.
HE EVEN KNOWS WHY YOU MADE THE
MISTAKES YOU MADE.
ISN'T THAT AMAZING.
GOD DOESN'T NECESSARILY JUDGE US
BY WHAT WE HAVE DONE.
HE SEES OUR HEART.
MAN LOOKS ON THE OUTSIDE AND
SAYS SHE DID THIS AND THIS AND
THIS.
BUT GOD LOOKS IN YOUR HEART AND
HE'S SEEN EVERY MOMENT FROM THE
DAY YOU WERE CONCEIVED HE KNOWS
EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE.
HE LOVES YOU AND HE HAS
A DESTINY AND NEW PLACE FOR YOU.
THIS IS NOT THE END, THIS IS THE
DAY GOING TO BE THE BEGINNING
FOR YOU.
SO THAT WHAT WAS OLD IS OLD AND
IN THE PAST AND GONE.
GOD IS STARTED A NEW AND A FRESH
DAY FOR YOU.
DO SOMETHING WITH ME.
PUT YOUR HAND OUR YOUR MOUTH
RIGHT NOW.
SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE HELD THEIR
HAND ON YOUR MOUTH AND SAID
DON'T YOU SAY A WORD OR THIS
IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
I'M GOING PRAY WITH YOU, WHISPER
IT UNDER YOUR BREATH AND THEN
TAKE YOUR HAND OFF AND CALL THE
NUMBER ON THE SCREEN COME ON,
FATHER, WOULD YOU COME INTO MY
HEART?
YES.
I'M A SINNER.
I HAVE SINNED, BUT THIS MOMENT,
I BREAK THE SILENCE.
JESUS, SAVE ME.
IN JESUS' NAME.
I TAKE IT OFF.
IF YOU PRAYED THAT PRAYER,
1-855-759-0700.
OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY.
I KNOW THAT GOD IS TOUCHING
SOMEONE TODAY.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO BEING WITH
YOU ALL AGAIN.
UNTIL NEXT TIME, I'M BRIAN
WARREN.
I'M LAURA-LYNN TYLER
THOMPSON.
HAVE A GREAT DAY, CANADA, GOD
BLESS.
