COMING UP.

IT WAS A CRAZY IDEA.

BUT I KNEW WE HAD TO DO

SOMETHING.

MEET A FAMILY WITH 32

KIDS.

IF WE DIDN'T TAKE THEM

OFF THE

STREETS, MOST OF THEM WOULD

BE DEAD.

PLUS, A FIREBALL ON THE

FREEWAY.

MY FIRST REACTION WAS I

DIDN'T

THINK THEY WERE ALIVE.

A HERO SPRINGS INTO

ACTION.

AND MAKES A SUPERNATURAL

RESCUE.

GOD PUTS ME WHERE I NEED

TO BE.

ON TODAY'S "700 CLUB".

Gordon: WELCOME ON THIS

DAY AFTER

EASTER. WE ARE GOING TO HAVE

SOME

GREAT STORIES.

FIRST IS TO HUNT DOWN THE

ISIS TERROR

CELL BEHIND THE BRUSSELS

BOMBING.

MANY OFFICIALS REFUSE TO

ADMIT THAT

THERE IS A WAR AGAINST

EUROPE.

AS CHRIS MITCHELL REPORTS

ON

BRUSSELS, THE NEXT ATTACK IS

IS NOT A

QUESTION OF IF, BUT WHEN.

JUST AS FOLLOWING THE

LAST YEAR'S

TERROR ATTACKS, BELGIUM SET

UP A

MEMORIAL.

THIS IS THE SITE WHERE MANY

PEOPLE

HAVE GATHERED TO HONOR THOSE

KILLED

IN THE TERROR ATTACKS.

IT'S FILLED WITH FLOWERS AND

CANDLES.

HAVE CAME TO REFLECT AND

REMEMBER.

MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL IN

SHOCK.

I THINK IF WE KNEW

SOMETHING WAS

GOING TO HAPPEN, EVERYBODY

IS STILL

IN SHOCK. TERRORIST ATTACK

IS FOR

TERROR.

THEY WANTED PEOPLE TO BE IN

TERROR.

BASICALLY WHAT'S MOST

IMPORTANT IS

WORLD IS THE END OF THE

CIVIL WAR.

WE LIVE IN SUCH A TIME.

HE SPENT 40 YEARS IN

COUNTER

INTELLIGENCE. HE HAS NEVER

SEEN

ANYTHING LIKE THIS IN HIS

PROFESSIONAL CAREER.

WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN

EUROPE, WHAT

WE HAVE SEEN IN EUROPE

ESPECIALLY

SINCE 1992 IS A WORSE

SITUATION

ESPECIALLY WHAT I HAVE SEEN

IN THE TV

SCENE, IN BAGHDAD, AND NOT

IN EUROPE.

IT LEAVES MANY TO WONDER

IF

BELGIUM AND OTHER EUROPEAN

POWERS CAN

MEET THIS THREAT.

THERE ARE SOMEWHERE IN

THE

NEIGHBORHOOD OF 5,000

MUSLIMS THAT

HAVE JOINED ISIS.

HUNDREDS HAVE ALREADY

RETURNED.

THIS IS AN UNPRECEDENTED

THREAT

LEVEL. MANY COUNTRIES

INCLUDING THIS

ONE ARE NOT PREPARED IN

TERMS OF

COUNTER TERRORISM, POLICING.

ACCORDING TO OFFICIALS,

BELGIUM

HAS MORE ISLAMIC TERRORIST

THAN ANY

OTHER EUROPEAN NATION PER

CAPITA.

BUT PATRICIA SAYS THE

POLITICIANS

REFUSE TO NAME THE PROBLEM.

YOU WILL NEVER SEE THE

TERRORIST

RADICAL METHOD, WHY?

DESPITE THE POLITICIANS

OR POLICE,

MANY CHURCHES CONTINUE THE

BATTLE IN

PRAYER.

MANY SERVICES, THIS CHURCH

PRAYED FOR

A MEMBER NEARLY KILLED.

WE THANK YOU LORD, FOR

ALLOWING

HIM TO BE WITH US THIS

MORNING.

AND THEY ALSO PRAYED FOR THE

CITY.

LORD, WE ASK FOR THE CITY

OF

BRUSSELS AND THE SURROUNDING

COMMUNITIES, YOUR DIVINE

PROTECTION.

CBN NEWS LEARNED THE

BOMBINGS THAT

TOOK PLACE TUESDAY WERE

PLANNED FOR

EASTER SUNDAY.

THEY BELIEVE THE MASTER MIND

SALAH

ABDESLAM THAT THE TERRORIST

DECIDED

TO ACT.

THE CHURCH NEEDS TO PREPARE

FOR A NEW

REALITY.

WE KNOW THAT WHAT IS

HAPPENING IN

BRUSSELS IS NOT UNIQUE. WE

LIVE IN A

NEW DAY, A NEW AGE, AND OUR

LORD TOLD

US THERE WOULD BE A

TRIBULATION.

WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO

CONTINUE TO

PREACH THE GOSPEL AND WE ARE

GOING TO

KEEP DOING THAT.

Pat: BELGIUM IS SO SMALL.

THAT

MEANS THAT MAGNIFIES THE

NUMBER.

IF YOU HAVE 5,000 DEDICATED

PEOPLE,

JUST THINK OF A PEACEFUL

SOCIETY.

HOW MUCH DAMAGE ONE OR TWO

PEOPLE CAN

DO.

YOU HAVE 5,000 OF THEM

PLANNING BOMB

ATTACKS. IT SO EASY TO LEAVE

A BOMB

BY A BUS STOP OR RAILROAD

STATION OR

IN SOME AIRPORT TERMINAL.

IT'S SO

EASY, UNLESS SOCIETY IS ON

COMPLETE

MARSHALL LAW AND LOCK DOWN

AND THE

COMPLETE SOCIETY DOESN'T

WANT THAT.

IT'S TERRIBLE AND EXPERTS

SAYING THIS

IS AS BAD AS WORLD WAR II IS

VERY

VERY SERIOUS. THESE

SO-CALLED PEOPLE

OF RELIGION OF PEACE DECIDED

THEY

WOULD GO AFTER PEOPLE

WORSHIPPING IN

EASTER AND THEY STRUCK IN

PAKISTAN.

THEY INTENTIONALLY MURDERED

CHRISTIANS ON THE HOLIEST

DAY IN

EASTER.

HERE IS JOHN.

John: THANKS, PAT.

THAT BOMB KILLED MANY PEOPLE

INCLUDING WOMEN AND CHILDREN

AFTER

THEY ARE ALREADY ON HIGH

ALERT FOR

TERRORISM ON EASTER SUNDAY.

EFREM GRAHAM HAS THIS STORY

ON GLOBAL

TERROR FROM PAKISTAN

Efrem: PAIN HAS STRUCK

THIS TOWN IN

PAKISTAN WITH BOMBINGS AND

HURTING

WOMEN AND CHILDREN.

WE ARE SO UPSET BECAUSE

THIS WAS A

DAY OF OUR WORSHIP.

A CHRISTIAN LEADER IN

PAKISTAN

TOLD CBN NEWS THE GOVERNMENT

IS NOT

DOING ENOUGH TO PROTECT

CHRISTIANS.

THERE WAS NO PROPER

SECURITY.

IT WAS AT LEAST 3,000 PEOPLE

AND

THERE WERE ONLY TWO

POLICEMEN THERE.

TOO DEATH TOLL FROM THE

MASSIVE

SUICIDE BOMBING HAS CLIMBED

TO MORE

THAN 70 WITH AT LEAST 300

WOUNDED.

AS THE COUNTRY BEGINS A

3-DAY

MOURNING PERIOD.

WE THANK YOU FOR PRAYING

FOR THE

PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN.

REMEMBER US IN YOUR PRAYERS

BECAUSE

WE NEED IT RIGHT NOW.

THIS ATTACK COMES A WEEK

AFTER THE

DEADLY BOMBING ATTACKS IN

BRUSSELS.

WHEN IT'S ONLY BEGIN THE

CAPACITY TO

PARTIALLY RESUME SERVICE.

MEANWHILE AUTHORITIES ARE

STILL

TRYING TO FIND THOSE BEHIND

THE

DEADLY ATTACKS. THEY

ARRESTED A MAN

IN ITALY WHO THEY BELIEVE

FORGED

DOCUMENTS FOR TERRORIST IN

BRUSSELS

AND PARIS. POLICE IN HOLLAND

ARRESTED

A FRENCH MAN FOR PLANNING

AND ATTACK.

ACROSS BELGIUM NINE PEOPLE

HAVE BEEN

DETAINED AFTER MORE THAN A

DOZEN

RAIDS.

THEY HAVE EVIDENCE ISIS MAY

HAVE

PLANNED TO ATTACK A NUCLEAR

PLANT IN

BELGIUM.

CONFIRMED FOUR AMERICANS

WERE KILLED

IN BOMBINGS. THEY INCLUDE

THE YOUNG

COUPLE, JUSTIN AND STEPHANIE

SCHULTS.

STEPHANIE HAD A STRONG

BELIEF IN GOD.

THIS WEEKEND TROOPS WITH

AUTOMATIC

WEAPONS COULD BE FOUND

OUTSIDE THE

CATHEDRAL IN PARIS AND ST.

PETER'S

SQUARE IN ROME.

EFREM GRAHAM, CBN NEWS.

THANKS, FREM.

A VICTIM 40 YEARS, WROTE

ON

FACEBOOK, GOOD FRIDAY, VERY

HAPPY

EASTER ESPECIALLY TO MY

BELOVED

CHRISTIAN NATION. POLICE

HAVE

ARRESTED A 32-YEAR-OLD MAN

IN

CONNECTION WITH HIS DEATH.

A BILL THAT GEORGIA

PROTECTS FAITH

GROUPS. IT DOESN'T APPLY TO

BUSINESSES.

DISNEY, MARVEL AND THEATRES

AND

HOLLYWOOD ACTORS AND

PRODUCERS HAVE

ALSO THREATENED TO BOYCOTT

THE PEACH

STATE.

THE GRANT SAYS IT DOES NOT,

RATHER IT

CONTAINS THE GROWING

DISCRIMINATION

AGAINST CHRISTIANS WHO

SIMPLY WANT TO

LIVE OUT THEIR FAITH.

CBN SPOKE WITH THE SENATOR

WHO

SPONSORED THE BILL.

I HOPE THAT THESE

COMPANIES AND

CEO'S OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS

TAKE THE

TIME TO READ THE BILL AND

LOOK AT

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE OTHER

21

COUNTRIES THAT HAVE PASSED

SAME SEX

LAWS.

IT HAS QUELLCHED THE 1ST

AMENDMENT

RIGHTS.

WE ARE TRYING TO BE FAIR AND

EQUITABLE IN GEORGIA.

HE SAYS IT WAS TIME THEY

SIGNED

THAT BILL.

Pat: THESE GUYS ARE

SUPPOSED TO BE

TOUGH WARRIORS IN THE NFL.

WHY ARE THEY SUDDENLY GOING

OUT TO

BOYCOTT A STATE BECAUSE OF

SOME

ALLEGED OFFENSE AGAINST

HOMOSEXUAL

MARRIAGE? THESE NFL PLAYERS

ARE NOT

GOING TO GET SAME SEX

MARRIAGE, YOU

WOULDN'T THINK.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH

PEOPLE? THIS

IDEA THAT THIS IS SOME KIND

OF RACIAL

DISCRIMINATION IS NONSENSE.

WE ARE MAKING A PROTECTED

CLASS OF

SOMEBODY THAT, YOU KNOW, IT

JUST FOR

CENTURIES HAVE BEEN ON THE

EDGES OF

SOCIETY.

NOW SUDDENLY IT HAS BECOME

THE BIG

DEAL AND BIG COMPANIES

BOYCOTTING A

STATE BECAUSE THEY HAVE

PASSED A LAW

SAYING PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE

DISCRIMINATED AGAINST

BECAUSE THEY

BELIEVE IN GOD.

I MEAN, WHAT KIND OF A

BOYCOTT IS

THAT? IT'S RIDICULOUS.

I COMMEND FRANKLIN FOR

STANDING UP

AND I THINK OTHERS SHOULD DO

THE SAME

THING AS WE ARE GOING TO

STAY WITH

GEORGIA ON THIS ONE.

THIS ALLEGED OFFENSE IS JUST

ABSURD.

JOHN? JOHN I --

John: PAT, "OPERATION

BLESSING"

DELIVERED TO MANY FAMILIES

AND

CHILDREN ON SUNDAY WHO WERE

INVOLVED

AFTER A FLOOD.

TODAY THEY REMOVED DRYWALL

AND

CAPTURING FROM THEIR HOMES.

RESIDENTS EXPRESSED THEIR

GRATITUDE

LIKE ONE YOUNG MOTHER WHO

HAS TWO

18-YEAR-OLD TWIN DAUGHTERS

AND ONE IS

EXPECTING A GRANDCHILD.

I THANK GOD FOR THE HUGE

BLESSING.

OTHER THAN THAT I WOULD BE

LOST.

TODAY, "OPERATION

BLESSING" WILL

PACK UP AND GO BACK TO ITS

HEADQUARTERS IN VIRGINIA

BEACH.

Pat: WE ARE THERE WHEN

THERE IS A

NEED. YOUR HEART GOES OUT TO

SOMEBODY. A FLOOD COMES AND

TAKES ALL

OF YOUR POSSESSIONS. THEY

DON'T HAVE

ANY EMERGENCY INSURANCE,

DON'T HAVE

BACK UP.

THEY PROBABLY DON'T HAVE A

JOB AND

RESERVE CURRENCY.

WE ARE GOING TO FIND MORE

AND MORE.

AS PEOPLE GET OLDER, THEY DO

NOT HAVE

A RETIREMENT INCOME,

AMERICAN PEOPLE

DO NOT HAVE SAVINGS AND WHEN

THIS

HAPPENS, THERE IS NO

DISASTER FUNDS

AND THE GOVERNMENT IS GOING

TO RUN

SHORT.

THE COMMUNITY CAN REACH OUT

TO THOSE

THAT ARE HURTING.

SO, WE NEED TO DO THAT.

HERE, "OPERATION BLESSING"

WAS

INVOLVED IN LOUISIANA.

WE HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IF

THERE IS A

TORNADO, IF THERE IS AN

EARTHQUAKE,

IF THERE IS SOME MASSIVE

DISASTER.

"OPERATION BLESSING" IS

THERE AS AN

EMERGENCY TO HELP THOSE

PEOPLE IN

NEED.

IF YOU WANT TO HELP

"OPERATION

BLESSING", BY THE WAY, THE

NUMBER IS

ON YOUR SCREEN, TOLL-FREE

PHONE

NUMBER: 1-800-759-0700.

IT'S "OPERATION BLESSING"

DISASTER

RELIEF.

YOU SAY, I LOVE THE LORD,

HE'S BEEN

GOOD TO ME, LET ME BE GOOD

TO OTHERS.

TERRY?

Terry: UP NEXT, A COUPLE

WHO ARE

PARENTS TO 32 CHILDREN.

SEE HOW THEY ARE ON A

MISSION TO

CREATE A WORLD WITHOUT

ORPHANS.

A STUDENT ASKED A

NOT DEAD" TOMORROW ON THE

"700 CLUB".

Pat: YOU ARE WATCHING THE

"700

CLUB".

THIS IS THE DAY AFTER EASTER.

WE ARE GLAD TO HAVE YOU WITH

US.

AROUND THE WORLD, AN

ESTIMATED 8

MILLION CHILDREN ARE LIVING

IN

ORPHANAGES.

"OPERATION BLESSING" AND

THROUGH

ORPHANS PROMISE, TERRY HAS

BEEN DOING

A TREMENDOUS JOB ON THIS.

SOME CHRISTIANS ARE SAYING,

WE ARE

NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANY

LONGER.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. THEY ARE

MAKING A

MOVEMENT TO PUT THESE

CHILDREN IN

SAFE, STABLE NURTURING

FAMILIES.

GEORGE THOMAS IS ON THIS

MISSION TO

CREATE A WORLD WITHOUT

ORPHANS.

GENNADIY MOKHNENKO IS A

PASTOR

FROM EASTERN UKRAINE.

BACK IN 1998 HE SAW

FIRSTHAND THE

PLIGHT OF CHILDREN LIVING ON

THE

STREETS AND IN ORPHANAGES IN

HIS TOWN.

I JUST DISINTEREST --

DIDN'T KNOW

HOW I COULD HAVE LEFT THEM

ON THE

STREET.

I UNDERSTOOD IT WAS THE

HEART OF GOD.

IT WAS A CRAZY IDEA BUT I

KNEW I HAD

TO DO SOMETHING.

WHAT HE AND HIS WIFE DID

WAS

REMARKABLE. OVER THE YEARS

THEY HAVE

BEEN PARENTS TO 32 CHILDREN.

THAT'S RIGHT, 32 CHILDREN.

MOST ARE ADOPTED.

MY ADOPTED CHILDREN WERE

LIVING ON

THE STREETS. SOME OF THEM

WERE AS

YOUNG AS 4 AND 5, SOME OF

THEM AS

YOUNG AS 2.

IF WE DIDN'T TAKE THEM OFF

THE

STREETS, MOST OF THEM WOULD

BE DEAD.

HE RUNS A PROGRAM FOR

STREET YOUTH

IN UKRAINE.

NOBODY NEEDS TO ADOPT 32

CHILDREN

LIKE WE DID.

MY FAMILY IS NOT THE NORM,

BUT I

STRONG HE BELIEVE THERE ARE

ENOUGH

CHRISTIAN FAMILIES IN THE

WORLD WHO

CAN ADOPT ONE, MAYBE TWO AND

THEN

THERE WILL NOT BE ANY ORPHAN

CHILDREN

IN THE WORLD.

HE TOOK THAT MESSAGE TO

THAILAND

WHERE THE LEADERS MET FOR A

GLOBAL

MEETING FOR A WORLD WITHOUT

ORPHANS.

IT'S VERY EASY, IT'S TO

PROVIDE A

PLACE FOR A PERMANENT PLACE

FOR A

SAFE FAMILY.

HE SAYS THAT CHRISTIAN

ORGANIZATIONS HAVE TO INVEST

IN

FAMILIES.

IT'S NOT EASY.

YOU CAN'T DISCLOSE AN

ORPHANAGE.

WE NEED TO CHANGE THE WAY

PEOPLE

THINK FIRST.

CRAIG GREENFIELD WORKS

AMONG

VULNERABLE CHILDREN IN ASIA.

HE SAYS

THE CHANGE HAS TO START

WITH FAITH

BASED GROUPS.

UNFORTUNATELY IT'S

CHRISTIAN

ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE

PERPETUATING

THIS MODEL.

THEY HAVE NOT SUPPORTED OR

DONE --

ORPHANAGES FOR MANY YEARS.

IT'S THE BEST WAY TO CARE

FOR

CHILDREN.

THE CHILDREN BEING CARED FOR

ARE

CHILDREN WITH FAMILIES,

CHILDREN WITH

PARENTS AND THERE IS POVERTY

AND NO

ACCESS TO EDUCATION.

IT'S NOT WITHOUT IT'S

CRITICS,

HERE IN CHIANG MAI, THERE

ARE 600

PRIVATE ORPHANAGES, AND MANY

OF THEM

LIKE THIS ONE, ARE RUN BY

CHRISTIANS.

I GREW UP IN AN ORPHANAGE

AS WELL,

SO MY DESIRE IS TO TAKE CARE

OF

ORPHAN CHILDREN.

HE RUNS HIS HOME.

HIS FAMILY WITH A TOO POOR,

SO THEY

SENT HIM AWAY.

THERE WAS NO HOME IN MY

VILLAGE.

MY PARENTS SENT ME TO AN

ORPHANAGE TO

GET AN EDUCATION.

NOW HE AND HIS WIFE TRY

TO CREATE

A FAMILY LIKE ATMOSPHERE FOR

THE 30

CHILDREN THEY CARE FOR.

HE SAYS THEY ONLY TAKE THOSE

WHO ARE

TRULY ORPHANED.

THE TRUTH IS CHILDREN

SHOULD LIVE

WITH THEIR FAMILY, BUT IF

THAT CAN'T

HAPPEN FOR WHATEVER REASON,

THERE HAS

TO BE PLACES LIKE THIS.

THERE CAN'T BE ANOTHER

CHOICE FOR

THEM.

PEOPLE PARTICIPATING FROM

DIFFERENT

COUNTRIES AND SEMINARS

MAKING

AWARENESS OF FAMILIES AND

COMMUNITY

CARE.

THEY ADDRESSED THE FORUM

INCLUDES OUR

VERY OWN "700 CLUB" TERRY

MEEUWSEN.

MEEUWSEN STARTED ORPHANS

PROMISE IN

2005.

PEOPLE STILL COME TO ME

AND SAY, I

WOULD LIKE TO BUILD AN

ORPHANAGE.

CAN I DO THAT THROUGH

ORPHANS

PROMISE? I SAY YOU CAN DO

THAT

THROUGH HELPING FAMILIES.

WE ARE NOT BUILDING

ORPHANAGES.

WE CHANGE HOW THEY CAN FEEL.

"ORPHAN'S PROMISE" WORKS

IN 60

COUNTRIES.

HOW MANY WAYS CAN WE

PREPARE?

I TOLD YOU SHE'S

RESOURCEFUL.

MEEUWSEN SAYS WHILE THIS

NEW SHIFT

DOESN'T ALWAYS GUARANTEE

THAT

CHILDREN WILL HAVE HEALTHY

FAMILIES

TO GO BACK TO, IT IMPORTANT

THAT THE

BODY OF CHRIST FILLS IN THE

GAPS.

LET'S TAKE THE CHILDREN

INTO A

FAMILY SETTING.

LET'S LET THEM FIND

WHOLENESS SO WE

ARE CREATE ING A WORLD OF

HEALTHY

FAMILIES.

SHE'S EXCITED TO SEE MORE

AND MORE

PEOPLE WITH THIS MIND-SET OF

CARE.

HERE IS A GREAT PART

ABOUT THIS

THAT NOT EVERYONE CAN ADOPT,

NOT

EVERYONE CAN FOSTER, NOT

EVERYONE CAN

HAVE THIS PROGRAM, BUT

EVERYONE CAN

HELP, EVERYONE CAN PRAY AND

EVERYONE

WHO SPENDS SOME TIME IN THIS

FIELD

KNOW IT'S A LONG AND

COMPLICATED

PROCESS, BUT WE HAVE TO

START

SOMEWHERE.

HE SAYS IT'S A NEW PHASE

OF THAT

LONG AND DIFFICULT JOURNEY

TO A WORLD

WITHOUT ORPHANS.

CHIANG MEI, THAILAND.

Pat: I HAVE BEEN AROUND TO

MANY

PLACES AND IT DOESN'T MATTER

WHETHER

IT'S IN AFRICA OR EUROPE.

THE KIDS WANT TO BE HUGGED,

THEY WANT

TO BE LISTENED TO AND THEY

WANT

SOMEBODY TO HUG THEM.

WHEN PEOPLE HUG THEM,

THEY KNOW

IT'S SAYING I VALUE YOU.

THEY WANT TO GROW UP WHOLE

AND THAT'S

HOW WE HAVE A GREAT CULTURE.

MY THREE YOUNGEST DAUGHTERS

CAME OUT

OF AN ORPHANAGE OF 350

CHILDREN.

Pat: IN ROMANIA, THAT WAS

HORRIBLE.

THEY GREW UP WITH HUNDREDS

OF KIDS.

THAT WAS TERRIBLE.

WE CAN HELP THAT.

LET'S MAKE IT SMALL, LET'S

HAVE HOUSE

PARENTS AND LET'S MAKE IT A

FAMILY

SETTING AND WHETHER CHILDREN

ARE

THERE BECAUSE OF POVERTY OR

THEIR

PARENTS HAVE ISSUES, LET'S

HELP THE

FAMILY SO THEY CAN BE WITH

THEIR

MOTHER AND FATHER AND NOT

THE

INSTITUTION.

THEY DID A STUDY WITH

LITTLE

CHIMPANZEES AND THEY EVEN

HAD A FAKE

MOTHER, A STUFFED MOTHER AND

THAT

BABY WANTED TO HUG THEIR

MOTHER.

THEY JUST WANT THE TOUCH OF

A MOTHER.

THEY SAY THAT A BABY

KNOWS THE

DISTINCT SMELL OF ITS

MOTHER BY 3

DAYS. ANY REMOVAL CAUSES

TRAUMA.

Pat: THANK YOU FOR WHAT

YOU ARE

DOING.

THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF

ORPHANS BEING

HELPED.

THE ORPHANAGES ARE GOING OUT

AND

SAYING, LET'S HAVE FAMILIES.

IT'S A BIG JOB.

YOU TAKE ON SOMEBODY, IT'S A

CHORE.

I'M JUST PEOPLE OUGHT TO

WEIGH THE

COST.

IT'S NOT LIKE TAKING A DOG.

THESE ARE HUMAN BEINGS AND

THEY NEED

THE ATTENTION. THEY HAVE

ISSUES AND

THEY HAVE ANGER AND THEY

HAVE SPELLS

AND THEY HAVE ALL THE REST

OF US.

THESE FAMILIES NEED THE

ENCOURAGEMENT.

BY THE WAY, "ORPHAN'S

PROMISE" AND

CBN SPONSORS THOSE

THROUGHOUT THE

WORLD. WHEN YOU JOIN, WE

WANT TO SAY

THANK YOU.

COMING UP, A TRUCK DRIVER

WITNESSES A

HORRIFIC CRASH RIGHT BEFORE

HIS EYES.

THE ROAD, THE CAR,

EVERYTHING WAS

ON FIRE. MY FIRST REACTION,

I DIDN'T

THINK ANYONE WAS ALIVE.

WATCH THIS MIRACLE UNFOLD.

THAT'S NEXT.

GIVE YOU YOUR MONEY BACK.

TO SEE THIS WEEK'S TOP ON

DEMAND

VIDEOS, GO TO CBN.COM.

FREDERICKSEN IS A TRUCK

DRIVER.

HE HAD JUST TAKEN OVER

DRIVER DUTIES

WHEN HE SAW DANGER AHEAD.

I GOT A GLIMPSE OF A

FRONT GRILL

OF A CAR THAT LOOKED LIKE IT

WAS

COMING IN THE WRONG

DIRECTION.

OTHER THAN AUGUST 11,

2014, DAVID

FREDERICKSEN AND HIS DRIVER

PARTNER

WERE DRIVING IN MISSISSIPPI

WHEN

DAVID'S DASH CAM RECORDED

THE CRASH.

THE ROAD, THE CAR,

EVERYTHING WAS

ON FIRE.

AS HE DROVE BY THE CAR,

HE GRABBED

THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER.

WHEN I PULLED THE PEN,

AUTOMATICALLY, I WAS SAYING,

GOD,

PLEASE DON'T HAVE ME DEAL

WITH

ANYBODY SCREAMING. I DIDN'T

THINK

THEY WERE ALIVE.

SOMETHING CAUGHT HIS EYE.

I SAW SOMEONE POPPED UP.

IT WAS A WOMAN AND HER

GRANDDAUGHTER.

SHE IS TRYING TO KICK THE

DOOR

OPEN.

DAVID TRIED TO GET THE

DOOR OPEN.

TIME WAS RUNNING OUT.

I HEARD THE METAL

BURNING. I'M A

PRETTY BIG GUY.

I TRIED TO GET IT OPEN, IT

WOULDN'T

OPEN.

ONCE MORE, HE PRAYED.

I DIDN'T KNOW.

I HAD NEVER BEEN IN A

SITUATION LIKE

THAT.

THE DOOR FINALLY BROKE

FREE.

THEN I SAW THE HEAD POP

UP AGAIN

AND I SAW OTHER PEOPLE

SHOWING UP. I

GOT INTO THE BACKSEAT AND

GRABS THE

LITTLE GIRL. I REACHED IN

AND SHE

GRABBED ME AROUND THE NEXT.

WHILE SOMEONE ELSE HELPED

THE

GRANDMOTHER, DAVID PULLED

THEM TO THE

SIDE.

DAVID KNOWS GOD

INTERVENED AND

USED HIM TO HELP RESCUE

THEM.

THE FIRE DIDN'T BURN MY

HANDS.

IT WASN'T HOT. I DO BELIEVE

HE

PROTECTED ME AND PROTECTED

THEM. IF I

WOULD HAVE BEEN 20 SECONDS

SOONER, I

WOULD HAVE BEEN DOWN THE

ROAD. FW --

IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN 10

SECONDS

SOONER.

I'M GLAD I WAS ABLE TO HELP

HER.

HE WAS THANKFUL GOD USED

HIM.

THAT LITTLE GIRL, I KNOW

THAT

GOD'S GOT PLANS FOR HER.

THAT'S WERE HE PROTECTED HER

THAT DAY.

GOD PUTS PEOPLE WHERE THEY

NEED TO BE.

HE ASSURED ME THAT HE NEEDS

ME AND

PUT ME IN FRONT OF SOMEONE

THAT

NEEDED MY HELP.

YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO GOD.

THERE IS A WORD FOR ALL

OF US.

HE DID

-- DOES PUT PEOPLE WHERE

THEY ARE

NEEDED.

Pat: A BURNING CAR AND IT

CAN

EXPLODE ANY MINUTE.

IT MUST BE BLAZING HOT AND

WILL BURN

YOU IF YOU TOUCH THEM. HE

WENT RIGHT

IN THERE AND DIDN'T GET A

SCRATCH.

IT IS JUST AMAZING.

SOMEONE TO HAPPEN TO HAVE

A FIRE

EXTINGUISHER.

THAT WAS AMAZING.

THIS IS WANDA WHO LIVES

IN

VIRGINIA.

SHE SUFFERED WITH FEVER THAT

LASTED 3

HOURS. HER DOCTOR SAID YOU

HAVE A

NERVOUS CONDITION.

THE LORD IS WORKING ON YOUR

BODY AND

THAT SHAKING AND FEVER HAS

STOPPED.

Pat: THIS IS FROM DETROIT.

SHE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH AN

AUTOIMMUNE

DISORDER AND WOKE UP VERY

SWOLLEN AND

PAINFUL AND I SAID THERE WAS

A

SWELLING IN YOUR THROAT,

REACH UP AND

TOUCH IT AND TERRY SAID

THERE IS

SWELLING AND REACH OUT AND

TOUCH IT

AND THERE WAS AN AMAZING

HEALING.

FOLKS, IT'S MONDAY.

IT IS THE FIRST DAY OF

WHATEVER

STARTS AFTER EASTER.

FIRST DAY AFTER EASTER.

BUT THIS COULD BE THE DAY

THAT THE

LORD DOES SOMETHING

WONDERFUL FOR YOU.

WHAT I WANT TO YOU DO IS TO

TRUST GOD

WITH US. TERRY AND I ARE

GOING TO TO

JOIN HANDS AND WE ARE GOING

TO

BELIEVE GOD FOR YOU.

FOR YOU.

WHAT IS YOUR NEED? YOU SAY

GOD CAN'T

HEAL THAT, YES HE CAN. WITH

GOD, ALL

THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.

SO WE JOIN TOGETHER.

FATHER, IN THE HOLY PRECIOUS

NAME OF

JESUS, WE SPEAK OF THE WORD

OF FAITH.

YOUR RIGHT SHOULDER IS IS

LOCKED UP.

IT'S REALLY JUST LOCKED UP.

RIGHT NOW

IF YOU WILL MOVE IT, IF YOU

REACH OUT

AND TOUCH THAT SHOULDER, IN

THE NAME

OF JESUS, TOUCH.

Terry: YOU AND YOURSELF

ARE PRAYING

ABOUT A MOVE THAT GOD MAYBE

CALLING

YOU TO THAT MEANS YOU GOING

AWAY FROM

YOUR EXTENDED FAMILY.

THE LORD IS LISTENING.

LISTEN TO

GOD'S WORD.

GO WITHOUT FEAR.

THERE IS A PURPOSE.

SOMEONE IS ASKING FOR A

REVELATION

FROM GOD.

YOU ARE SAYING I WANT A

REVELATION.

I HAVE GOT TO HAVE A

DECISION.

GOD IS GOING TO REVEAL HIS

WILL TO

YOU IN A SUPERNATURAL WAY.

JUST RECEIVE IT IN JESUS'

NAME.

A MOM IS PRAYING FOR YOU

AND YOUR

CHILDREN.

GOD'S HEARD YOUR CRY.

IT'S GOING TO COME FROM

UNEXPECTED

PLACE.

BUT IT'S HEADED YOUR WAY.

Pat: RECEIVE THE ANSWER.

MAY OUR GOD ANSWER YOUR

PRAYERS.

PRAISE GOD.

GIVE HIM PRAISE, WORSHIP GOD.

BELIEVE HIM. THERE IS

NOTHING

IMPOSSIBLE WITH THE GOD WE

SERVE.

NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE.

RECEIVE IT.

TERRY?

Terry: STILL AHEAD,

ANOTHER ROUND

OF BRING IT ON.

MARY BETH SAYS AS A NEW

EMPLOYEE,

SOMEONE DOESN'T ACKNOWLEDGE

SOMEONE

WHO IS HERE BEFORE 8:00 A.M..

SHOULD IDEAL WITH THAT?

AMERICA.

APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE NOW.

WELCOME BACK TO

WASHINGTON FOR

THIS CBN NEWSBREAK.

MOTHER ANGELICA, THE FOUNDER

OF THE

GLOBAL CATHOLIC NETWORK DIED

THIS

SUNDAY.

SHE BEGAN WITH A RELIGIOUS

WORLD TV

SHOW FROM A GARAGE IN

BIRMINGHAM,

ALABAMA.

THAT ENDED UP BEING A

WORLDWIDE TV

PUBLICATION. SHE DIED AFTER

A SERIES

OF STROKES, MOTHER ANGELICA

WAS 92.

CBN IS PROVIDING

HEALTHCARE

ORPHANAGES.

THE SMILE CLUB ALSO PROVIDES

FOOD AND

CLOTHING.

CBN OFFERS MESSAGE OF LOVE

AND

SALVATION. MANY COME UP NOT

JUST WITH

NEW SMILES BUT ALSO WITH

RENEWED AND

ENCOURAGED HEARTS.

YOU CAN FIND OUT MORE ABOUT

WHAT CBN

IS DOING AROUND THE WORLD BY

LOGGING

ON TO CBN.COM/INTERNATIONAL.

PAT AND TERRY WILL BE RIGHT

Terry: TIME TO BRING IT ON

WITH THE

E-MAILS.

THIS ONE COMES FROM MARY

BETH.

SHE SAYS AS A NEW EMPLOYEE I

WORK

WITH SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T

ACKNOWLEDGE

ANYONE WORKING BEFORE 7:00

A.M. EVEN

THOUGH HER DAY BEGINS AT

4:30 AND

SHUTS THE LIGHTS OFF FOR

QUIET TIME.

I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A

SITUATION

LIKE THIS.

THE BOSS DOESN'T ARRIVE

UNTIL 9:00

A.M..

SHOULD I SAY ANYTHING?

I THINK YOU MIGHT SAY

SUCK IT UP

AND GO AHEAD AND LIVE WITH

IT.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

THE GUY IS

A LITTLE WEIRD, BUT HE COMES

IN EARLY

AND WORKS HARD AND WANTS TO

CHILL OUT

FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE THE

NEXT

TASK.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT HE'S

DOING, GO

TO THE LUNCHROOM.

THAT'S WHAT I WOULD

RECOMMEND.

I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T REPORT

HIM TO

THE BOSS AND MAKE YOU LOOK

BAD.

OKAY.

THIS IS EDWARD WHO SAYS I

HAVE HEARD

IT SAY THAT WHEN YOU PRAY

AND TALK TO

GOD THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO

BE ON YOUR

KNEES TO PRAY.

IS IT DIFFERENT WHEN SAYING

GRACE

BEFORE A MEAL. CAN YOU GIVE

THANKS

WITHOUT CLOSING YOUR EYES

AND BOWING

YOUR HEAD.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I WANT TO GET IT RIGHT.

JESUS SAYS TO WORSHIP GOD

IN

SPIRIT, IT HAS NOTHING THE

DO WITH

THE POSTURE OF YOUR BODY.

THAT BOWING

SAYS THAT I ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR

SOVEREIGNTY.

PEOPLE KNEEL AND BOW AND DO

SO TO SAY

YOU ARE SOVEREIGN AND I'M A

CREATURE

MADE BEFORE YOU, BUT IF YOU

ARE

DRIVING A CAR, HEY, DON'T

CLOSE YOUR

EYES. YOU KEEP DRIVING.

NEVERTHELESS,

THERE IS NOTHING -- WE PRAY

24 HOURS

A DAY.

THE BIBLE SAYS PRAY WITHOUT

CEASING.

YOU CAN'T PRAY WITHOUT

CEASING IF YOU

ARE KNEELING ALL THE TIME.

THIS IS FLORENCE.

SHE SAYS DOES GOD WANT US TO

TAKE

MEDICATION. I HAVE A FAMILY

AND THEY

ALWAYS TAKE IT AND THEY SAY

IT'S

GOD'S WILL.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE

DEAL IS.

A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE ARE

OVER

MEDICATED AND THEY KNOW IT'S

NOT GOOD

FOR THEM. I'M ONE WHERE IT

COMES A

TIME YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE

A

MEDICINE.

THEY SAY YOU TAKE THIS.

I'M NOT GOING TO DO IT.

WE KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH

OUR

BODIES.

YOU MUST TAKE IT.

WHETHER IT'S GOD'S WILL OR

NOT, THE

MEDICINE THEY GIVE US IS A

BLESSING.

THE MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY IS A

BLESSING

FROM GOD, BUT WHAT IS IT?

90,000 TO

100,000 PEOPLE DIE BECAUSE

OF

MISDIAGNOSED MEDICINE.

THEN YOU HAVE THE ISSUE

OF MENTAL

HEALTH AS WELL WHERE

SOMETIMES YOU

NEED TO BE TAKING MEDICATION

TO

BALANCE YOURSELF CHEMICALLY.

IT

TYPICAL THAT PEOPLE WHO

SUFFER FROM

THAT DON'T WANT TO TAKE IT.

WELL, PEOPLE WHO ARE

HAVING A

LITTLE DEMENTIA FORGET WHAT

THEY ARE

SUPPOSED TO TAKE.

IT'S TOO COMPLICATED TO SAY

IT'S

GOD'S WILL. IT'S ONE OF

THESE TOOLS

THAT THESE ARE MADE

AVAILABLE TO US

TO BRING US TO SOME HEALTH.

BUT, AT THE SAME

TIME,ALLEVE, EXTRA

STRENGTH, THEY CAUSE STOMACH

BLEEDING

AND PEOPLE DIE BECAUSE OF

PRESCRIBED

PAIN KILLERS.

SOME OF THEM OVER THE

COUNTER.

OVER THE COUNTER AND

PEOPLE DIE.

THIS IS A VIEW WHO SAYS

THE FATHER

DESIGNS FATHER GOD IS LOVE.

DOES FATHER GOD HAVE A FACE,

DOES GOD

HAVE FEATURES THAT WE ARE

MADE IN HIS

IMAGE.

GOD SAID WHEN YOU SEE ME,

YOU SEE

THE FATHER.

THE FATHER EXPRESSED HIMSELF

THROUGH

HIS SON AND HE TOOK ON THE

FORM OF A

MAN.

BUT HE'S A SPIRIT.

HE'S A SPIRIT.

AND DOES HE HAVE A FACE?

WELL, WE

HAVE WHAT WE CALL ANTHRO

AMORPHISMS.

HIS FACE IS FOR YOU AND

SHINE UPON

YOU.

THESE ARE EXPRESSIONS SO WE

BEGIN TO

UNDERSTAND. JESUS SAID, IF

YOU HAVE

SEEN ME, YOU HAVE SEEN THE

FATHER.

Terry: THAT'S ALL THE TIME

WE HAVE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR

QUESTIONS.

WELL IMAGINE GETTING ONE

SANDWICH A

DAY, PERIOD.

THAT'S WHAT BROTHERS

STRUGGLED TO

SURVIVED ON UNTIL THEY GOD A

HAND UP.

THERE IS ONLY ONE THING

THAT

EDUARDO AND JAIR THINK ABOUT.

FOOD.

ONCE THERE THEY RECEIVE

THEIR FIRST

AND OWN MEAL FOR THE DAY

PROVIDED BY

THE GOVERNMENT.

SOMETIMES THE GOVERNMENT

FOOD DOESN'T

COME.

ON THE DAYS WHEN THERE IS

NO FOOD,

MY STOMACH HURTS AND I FEEL

SICK.

SHE'S A SINGLE MOTHER

RECEIVING

HELP FROM HER MOM. WHEN SHE

WAS LET

GO FROM THE FACTUALLY THEY

WENT

WITHOUT MANY MEALS.

SOMETIMES SHE HAS

TO BEG THE NEIGHBOR TO HIRE

HER.

I TOLD HER I HAD NO FOOD

TO GIVE

TO MY CHILDREN. I ASKED HER

IF I

COULD WORK IN HER HOUSE.

HE KNOWS HOW TOUGH THINGS

ARE. HE

DOESN'T MIND HELPING.

I LOVE TO GO TO GET MONEY

TO BUY

FOOD.

HE WAS SO WEAK FROM NOT

EATING

THAT HE FAINTED AT SCHOOL.

SHE PANICKED.

I HAD NO IDEA WHY HE

FAINTED.

I STARTED CRYING.

"OPERATION BLESSING"

LEARNED THE

FAMILY WAS STARVING.

WE HELPED HER WITH

EVERYTHING SHE

NEEDED TO MAKE TORTILLAS AND

TAMALES

TO SELL .

EVERYDAY THEY MAKE TORTILLAS

AND

TAMALES. EVERYDAY THE BOYS

SELL THEM

ON THEIR BICYCLES, ANOTHER

BLESSING

FROM "OPERATION BLESSING".

EVERYBODY LOVES THE

TORTILLAS.

WE SELL ALL OF THEM.

THE FAMILY NOW MAKES OVER

$200 A

MONTH AND JAIR HAS NEVER

GONE HUNGRY

AGAIN.

THANKS, "OPERATION

BLESSING" FOR

HELPING MY MOM AND THANKS

FOR MY NEW

BIKE.

CHILDREN ARE NOT MEANT TO

GO TO

SCHOOL HUNGRY. THEY ARE

GROWING, THEY

NEED NUTRITION.

ADULTS AREN'T MEANT TO GO

HUNGRY.

IS THE

PROBLEM.

COMING UP, A CHEATING

HUSBAND GETS

BUSTED BY HIS WIFE.

I SAID ARE YOU HAVING AN

AFFAIR?

HE SAID YES.

IMMEDIATELY MY HEART SINKS

TO MY

STOMACH.

WATCH WHAT HAPPENS WHEN

WE COME

BACK.

MIRACLES ARE EVERYWHERE.

Pat: MITCH ALVERSON DIDN'T

WASTE

MUCH TIME.

HE WAS STUCK ON PORN.

HE WAS LEFT WITH ONE OPTION,

PACK HIS

BAGS OR TELL THE TRUTH.

MICHELLE CAUGHT MITCH RED

HANDED.

SHE KNEW HE WAS INTO

PORNOGRAPHY.

IT WAS A GUY THING. IT

WAS

SOMETHING THAT MEN DID.

I JUST THE SAID, DON'T DO IT

ANYMORE.

I WAS GOING TO ASK HIM ON A

MONTHLY

BASIS IF HE HAD LOOKED AT

ANYTHING TO

KIND OF HOLD HIM

ACCOUNTABLE.

IT WOULD BE SOMETHING

THAT I WOULD

CONFESS MORE THAN ONCE.

MITCH WAS JUST A CURIOUS

SEVEN-YEAR-OLD WHEN HE

OPENED UP A

PORNOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE LEFT

BY HIS

13-YEAR-OLD BROTHER.

ONE GLIMPSE BECAME A HABIT.

IT BECAME A PART OF MY

EVERYDAY

LIFE.

MITCH COULDN'T STOP.

HE WAS ADDICTED TO

PORNOGRAPHY AND AS

THE CONFESSIONS KEPT COMING,

MICHELLE'S FEELINGS JUST

CHANGED.

I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW.

AM I GOOD ENOUGH? IT'S

BETRAYAL.

IT'S HEARTBREAKING.

SOON AFTER MITCH BECAME A

BELIEVER

TOO BUT THE COUPLE WERE MORE

CONCERNED WITH HOW THEY

LOOKED TO

OTHERS AND DIDN'T REALLY

SURRENDER

THEIR LIVES TO GOD.

I DON'T KNOW, SOME

PROBABLY

SCARED, LONELY AND LOOKING

FOR

SECURITY IN A MARRIAGE AND

NOT IN THE

LORD AT ALL.

I DID RELIGION.

YOU GO TO CHURCH, YOU TAKE

YOUR KIDS

TO SUNDAY SCHOOL AND THEN

EVERYTHING

WORKS OUT PERFECT.

I BELIEVE IN GOD, BUT I

DON'T

THINK HE HAD ANY RULE OR

REIGN OVER

MY LIFE.

IT WAS A MESS.

THE COUPLE WAS ALREADY

BROKEN

APART.

I WAS TAKING CARE OF THE

HOUSE AND

THE KIDS AND JUST BEING US

GIRLS.

BUT MICHELLE HAD NO IDEA

THAT

MITCH WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR.

IT JUST PULLED ME AWAY

AND I

ALLOWED THIS TO COME BETWEEN

THE LORD

AND MY WIFE.

THEN HE REALIZED HE HAD A

TRANSMITTED DISEASE.

YOU NEED TO HIT SOME

BOTTOM BEFORE

YOU UNDERSTAND THE

RAMIFICATIONS OF

WHAT'S GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE.

TURNS OUT HE DIDN'T HAVE

AN STD,

BUT IT WAS ENOUGH TO SCARE

HIM. HE

AND MICHELLE HAD A TALK.

IT GRABBED ME BY THE BACK

OF THE

NEXT.

I STARTED TRYING. I SAID

ARE YOU

HAVING AN AFFAIR? AND HE

SAID YES.

MY HEART SUNK TO MY STOMACH.

I THOUGHT SHE WOULD ASK

ME TO

LEAVE AND I HAD SOME STUFF

IN THE CAR.

THE CONFESSION FROM HER

HUSBAND

WAS DEVASTATING BUT MICHELLE

SAYS THE

HOLY SPIRIT TOOK OVER AND

SHE WAS

SHOCKED BY WHAT SHE DID

NEXT.

I JUST EMBRACED HIM AND

WOULD TELL

HIM THAT I WOULD BE THERE.

IT'S A DEPICTION OF WHAT

JESUS DID

FOR ME.

I MADE MY OWN SELFISH

CHOICES. HE

EMBRACES ME AND LOVES ME.

THAT IS WHAT I DID FOR MITCH

AND IN

THE MIDST I WAS COMFORTED AS

WELL.

MICHELLE SAYS IT WAS GOD.

HE DID THIS FOR ME.

HE'S MADE ME WHOLE AGAIN

THROUGH

JESUS.

MITCH AND MICHELLE MADE

FRIENDS AT

A LOCAL CHURCH.

THAT'S WHERE THEY LEARNED TO

CELEBRATE RECOVERY MINISTRY.

THAT'S WHERE THEY OVERCOME

HURT,

HABIT AND ADDICTION.

IT TAKES SOME

ACCOUNTABILITY.

IT OPENED A PLACE WHERE YOU

FEEL LIKE

YOU CAN ACTUALLY SHARE

WHAT'S GOING

ON IN YOUR HEART.

THE COUPLE DECIDED TO PUT

GOD

FIRST AND LET HIM SHOW THEM

HOW TO

LOVE EACH OTHER.

WE LOVE BECAUSE HE LOVED

US. I

DON'T LOVE MITCH JUST

BECAUSE HE'S MY

HUSBAND, I LOVE MITCH

BECAUSE JESUS

LOVED ME.

I NEED TO LOVE JESUS MORE

THAN I

LOVE THAT SIN.

Pat: THE BIBLE SAYS HE

MADE A SHOW

OF THEM OPENLY TRIUMPHANT IN

HIS

CROSS. IF YOU COVER YOUR

SINS, YOU

WON'T PROSPER.

BUT IF YOU -- CONFESS AND

PROFESS

THEM, YOU WILL FIND MERCY.

HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DONE, HE

KNOWS

WHAT MITCH WAS DOING. YOU

SEE, WE

ARE HUMAN BEINGS AND WE HAVE

URGES

AND DRIVES AND THAT CAN

BECOME AN

OBSESSION, TO BECOME A

HABIT, TO

BECOME SOMETHING THEY CAN

NOT GET RID

OF.

IT'S AN ADDICTION.

AT THAT POINT MITCH HAD LOST

CONTROL.

BUT HE KEPT ON AND HE HAD A

WIFE THAT

IS EXTRAORDINARY WHO REACHED

OUT AND

SAID, LOOK, I'M NOT GOING TO

WALK OUT.

I'M NOT GOING TO SAY,

CHARLIE, PACK

YOUR BACKS.

INSTEAD OF THAT, SHE SAID

JESUS

CHRIST FORGAVE ME, SO I'M

GOING TO

FORGIVE YOU.

NOW, THAT TAKES A LOT OF

DOING.

THAT TAKES AN EXTRAORDINARY

WOMAN TO

FACE AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN TO

SAY I'M

GOING TO FORGIVE AND I'M

GOING TO BE

LIKE GOD. THE ONE THING YOU

DON'T

WANT TO DO IN A SITUATION

LIKE THAT

IS TO THROW IT BACK IN THEIR

FACE.

IF IT WEREN'T FOR THAT CHEAP

WOMAN

AND ALL THE REST OF IT.

WHEN YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT

IT'S

DONE.

THEY HAVE GOTTEN A STABLE

MARRIAGE

BUT THEY ALSO NEED A SUPPORT

GROUP IN

THE CHURCH WHO SAY, WE

UNDERSTAND AND

WE ARE COMING TOGETHER WITH

YOU.

WELL, WE LEAVE YOU WITH

TODAY'S POWER

MINUTE FROM FIRST PETER.

"HUSBANDS...BE CONSIDERATE

AS YOU

LIVE WITH YOUR WIVES, AND

TREAT THEM

WITH RESPECT...SO THAT

NOTHING WILL

HINDER YOUR PRAYERS.: (1

PETER 3:7,

NIV) THAT'S ALL THE TIME

WE'VE GOT.

SEE YOU TOMORROW, BYE, BYE.
