Gordon: CULTURAL

WAVES SEEM TO BE SHIFTING.

IF YOU BELIEVE YOU

SHOULD SHARE YOUR FAITH

WITH SOMEONE, THAT IS

VIEWED BY 60% OF AMERICANS

TO BE EXTREMISTS.

Gordon: SOCIETY SAYS

CHRISTIANS ARE THE

PROBLEM.

THERE ARE SOME

CHALLENGING REALITIES WE

HAVE TO ADDRESS.

Gordon: WHAT WILL THE

FUTURE LOOK LIKE?

IF WE DON'T RISE TO THE

OCCASION, IN 10 YEARS IT

WILL BE A DIFFERENT KIND

OF CHURCH.

Gordon: WHY

RESEARCHERS SAY GOOD FAITH

IS THE SOLUTION.

ON TODAY'S "700 CLUB

INTERACTIVE."

WELCOME TO THE SHOW.

FORLY MILLIONS OFOR MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO

GREW UP IN CHURCH,

CHRISTIANITY HAS BECOME

BACKGROUND NOISE AND THIS

NOISE CAN BE SAFELY

IGNORED.

THEY ARE NOT EXACTLY

DENYING GOD, AND YET THEY

FIND CHRISTIANS

IRRELEVANT.

Terry: AND ANOTHER

GROUP OF AMERICANS THINK

CHRISTIANS ARE NOT JUST

IRRELEVANT, BUT THEY'RE

EXTREMIST.

THAT HAS MANY OF US ASKING

HOW CAN CHRISTIANS BE A

FORCE IN THE WORLD THAT IS

INCREASINGLY HOSTILE TO

OUR FAITH.

Reporter: THESE

PEOPLE SEEMED TO BE

EXTREMISTS, THE PARIS AND

BRUSSELS ATTACKERS, THE

BOSTON MARATHON BOMBERS.

TODAY, HOWEVER, IT IS

THESE PEOPLE THAT

INCREASING WEAR THAT

LABEL.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT JESUS

IS THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN?

YOU'RE AN EXTREMIST.

HAVE YOU EVER PRAYED FOR

SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW?

EXTREMIST.

BELIEVE THAT MARRIAGE IS

MEANT TO BE BETWEEN ONE

MAN AND ONE WOMAN?

EXTREMIST.

MANY PEOPLE OF FAITH ARE

FINDING IT HARDER THAN

EVER TO LIVE OUT THEIR

CONVICTIONS.

THEY FEEL THAT RELIGION IS

BEING PUSHED TO THE

MARGINS.

DAVID KINNAMIN AND DAVE

LIONS SAY DON'T DISPAIR.

THEY SHOW YOU HOW IN A NEW

BOOK, "BEING A CHRISTIAN

WHEN SOCIETY THINKS YOUR

IRRELEVANT AND EXTREME."

Gordon: DAVID

KINNAMIN JOINS US NOW.

AND HE IS THE CO-AUTHOR OF

"GOOD FAITH."

THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

Gordon: WHY HAS

AMERICAN CULTURE BECOME

HOS TAIL THOSTILE TO CHRISTIANS?

I THINK THE NEW

RELIGION IS THIS SORT OF

VACUUM AT THE CENTER.

WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANY

RELIGION AT ALL DOMINATING

THE AIRWAVES.

Gordon: SO LET'S

CHECK NONE.

LET'S HAVE NO RELIGION.

THE FASTEST GROWING IS THE

RELIGIOUSLY UNAFFILIATED.

THEY'RE LIKE, CHRISTIANITY

HAS HAD ITS TIME, AND

LET'S PUSH IT TO THE

MARGINS.

42% OF AMERICANS SAY THAT

PEOPLE OF FAITH ARE

ACTUALLY PART OF THE

PROBLEM WE'RE HAVING IN

OUR CULTURE TODAY.

AND SO LET'S SIDE LINE

THEM, LET'S MARGINALIZE

THEM.

IN THE PAST, THE PROBLEM

OF IRRELEVANCE WAS FAITH

WASN'T THAT RELEVANT -- A

PERSON COULD HAVE BEEN A

LIFE-LONG GOER OF CHURCH,

BUT THEY DON'T GO ANYMORE.

IF YOU CAN PUT IT TO THE

SIDE, YOU CAN TRY TO

LEGISLATE AROUND IT.

Gordon: AND YOU CAN

ALSO LEGISLATE AGAINST IT,

AND THAT ACTUALLY CONCERNS

ME.

EXACTLY.

Gordon: AND ONE OF MY

CONCERNS IS THAT IT SEEMS

TO BE TARGETED

SPECIFICALLY AT

CHRISTIANITY.

IF YOU JUST TAKE CHRISTIAN

OUT OF WHATEVER STATEMENT

IS BEING MADE AND INSERT

MUSLIM, THAT WOULD THEN BE

ATTACKED, THAT YOU'RE

GOING AFTER ISLAM.

AND THAT'S NOT PROPER, OR

BUDDHISTS -- OR NAME ANY

OTHER RELIGION.

IT JUST SEEMS TO BE OKAY

TO TRASH CHRISTIANITY, BUT

IT'S NOT OKAY TO GO AFTER

THESE OTHER RELIGIONS.

I'VE BEEN AT BARNA

GROUP NOW FOR 21 YEARS,

AND THE VERY FIRST PRESS

RELEASE THAT I WROTE WAS

CHRISTIANITY HAS A STRONG

POSITIVE IMAGE, DESPITE

FEWER ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS.

YOUR MEMORY FOR THESE

EARLY THINGS THAT YOU DO

IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL LIFE.

AND.

Congressman: CHRISTIANITY HAD A

STRONG POSITIVE IMAGE.

WE INTERVIEWED LIKE A

MILLION INTERVIEWS OVER

THE 20 YEARS I'VE BEEN AT

BARNA, AND IT IS AN

AMAZING COMPANY, AND PART

OF THE REASON I WROTE THIS

BOOK IS BECAUSE I'M

ACTUALLY REALLY SURPRISED

AT THE SPEED WITH WHICH

CHRISTIANITY'S IMAGE HAS

CHANGED.

AND NOT JUST THAT WE CAN

IGNORE IT BECAUSE, BEEN

THERE, DONE THAT, BUT THE

DEGREE TO WHICH

CHRISTIANITY IS BEING

SIDELINED, IT IS THE

ACTIVE SORT OF

MARGINALIZATION OF

CHRISTIANS AND THIS IDEA

WE'RE SOCIAL EXTREMISTS.

AND IF YOU'RE TRYING TO

SHARE YOUR FAITH, 60% OF

AMERICANS WOULD SAY THAT

IS EXTREMIST, OR IF YOU

WERE TRYING TO PRAY FOR A

STRANGER.

WE'RE TRYING TO GIVE

CHRISTIANS PERMISSION TO

BE IRRELEVANT AND EXTREME

AS CHRIST CALLS US TO BE.

Gordon: I WANT TO GET

BACK TO THE POINT, WHY THE

DOUBLE STANDARD?

BECAUSE THERE DOES SEEM TO

BE A DOUBLE STANDARD.

JUST ANYONE WHO STANDS UP

TO SAY, WHAT ISLAM IS

DOING TO WOMEN IN SAUDI

ARABIA IS WRONG.

IF YOU WERE TO DO THAT, I

THINK YOU WOULD BE

LABELLED EXTREMIST BY

MAKING THAT STATEMENT.

EVEN THOUGH THE VERY FACTS

ON THE GROUND IN SAUDI

ARABIA -- YOU CAN'T VOTE,

YOU CAN'T DRIVE.

AND THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF

THINGS WOMEN CAN'T DO IN

THAT CULTURE.

WHY THE DOUBLE STANDARD?

I THINK WE'RE LIVING IN

AN ERA WHEN THE MEDIA SORT

OF DOMINATES THE WAY

STORIES ARE BEING TOLD.

AND THIS GENERATION DIDN'T

REALLY UNDERSTAND THE WAY

IN WHICH SORT OF THESE

REALITIES OCCUR.

IF YOU THINK ABOUT THIS,

OUR SPIRITUAL SIDE TO OUR

WORLD -- OUR ADVERSARY

CAN'T CREATE ANYTHING.

HE CAN ONLY DECEIVE

PEOPLE.

HE CAN ONLY DISTORT

THINGS.

IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS

TONS OF DISTORTIONS THAT

ARE ENTERING INTO OUR

EQUATION.

89% SAY YOU SHOULDN'T

CRITICIZE SOMEONE ELSE'S

LIFE CHOICES.

I THINK THE DOUBLE

STANDARD IS SUCH THAT

WE'RE LIVING IN A

SPIRITUALLY CONTENTIOUS

TIME, AS HUMAN BEINGS HAVE

ALWAYS DONE, BUT IT IS

BEING FOCUSED NOW ON

CHRISTIANITY IN NORTH

AMERICA BECAUSE WE HAVE

HAD A LOT OF CULTURAL

POWER.

AND THAT POWER IS NOW

SLIPPING AWAY.

AND SO THE GOVERNMENT AND

OTHER KINDS OF FORCES OF

POWER, EVEN SOCIAL MEDIA,

AND THE WAY THE NEXT

GENERATION VIEWS

CHRISTIANITY, IT IS

CHANGING THE POWER.

IT IS CHANGING THE WAY

CHRISTIANS HAVE EXERCISED

POWER.

Gordon: ALL RIGHT.

I'M ACTUALLY THINKING

THERE IS A NEW TERM

ARRIVING, THAT ORTHODOX

CHRISTIANITY -- AND I

NEVER THOUGHT THAT WOULD

EVER COME OUT OF ME -- YOU

ACTUALLY BELIEVE THE

BIBLE.

AND IF YOU'RE ORTHODOX IN

YOUR BELIEFS, IS THERE --

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE

TEMPTATION TO SORT OF HUN

HUNKER DOWN AND PULL BACK

AND SAY, IF THE CULTURE IS

GOING TO GO THIS WAY, LET

THEM GO, AND WE'RE JUST

GOING TO GO TO THE

MOUNTAIN OR TRY TO FIND

SOME HIDDEN VALLEY TO

DWELL IN.

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THAT?

I THINK CERTAINLY THIS

IDEA OF BEING SEPARATE

FROM THE WORLD.

SOME CHRISTIAN

COMMUNITIES, THE AMISH

COME TO MIND, HAVE CHOSEN

THAT PATH.

THAT IS ONE PATH TO

FAITHFUL LIVING IN THE

WORLD TODAY, IS TO BE

SEPARATE FROM THE WORLD.

FOR MOST OF US AS

BELIEVERS, IN TODAY'S

CITIES AND IN CONTEXT,

THAT IS NOT REALLY THE

OPTION WE'RE LIKELY TO

CHOOSE.

WE THINK THERE IS A WAY TO

BE FAITHFUL, TO BE

ORTHODOX, TO HOLD TO THESE

HISTORIC TRUTHS.

WE ACTUALLY THINK THAT SO

MANY OF THESE THINGS WILL

TURN OUT TO BE A DEAD END

FOR TODAY'S CULTURE, THE

IDEAS ABOUT SEX AND

SEXUALITY, THE IDEA ABOUT

HOW IT IS WE LIVE AS

FLOURISHING HUMAN BEINGS,

AND THAT THESE ALL NEED TO

BE RETHOUGHT.

AND ALL MILLENNIALS ARE

WAITING FOR THESE DEEPER

ANSWERS, THESE ORTHODOX

ANSWERS.

WHEN DO YOU THINK THE

CULTURE IS GOING TO WAKE

UP, AND ACTUALLY, WE'VE

BEEN HERE BEFORE AS A

SPECIES.

AND ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS

LOOK AT GREEK HISTORY, AND

ROMAN HISTORY, AND YOU'LL

FIND THIS KIND OF PLEASURE

SEEKING, AND CHRISTIANITY

ACTUALLY SURVIVED, AND NOT

ONLY SURVIVED, BUT THRIVED

AND THEN BECAME THE

DOMINANT THOUGHT OF LET'S

NOT DO THAT.

LET'S NOT GIVE INTO THAT.

LET'S LIVE A RIGHTEOUS AND

HOLY LIFE.

IT IS HARD TO PREDICT

BASED ON THE TRENDS, WHEN

PEOPLE WILL WAKE UP TO

THAT.

THERE CAN BE ECONOMIC

CRISIS OR HEALTH CRISIS OR

OTHER KINDS OF THINGS.

WE SEE THAT PEOPLE

INDIVIDUALLY WAKE UP TO

THOSE THINGS, THAT

SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION

HAPPENS EVERY DAY ACROSS

THE COUNTRY.

IN INDIVIDUAL LIVES.

MAYBE NOT CULTURAL-WIDE.

THAT'S WHAT EACH FAMILY

AND CHURCH LEADER AND

CHRISTIAN COULD ASPIRE TO.

WE'RE NOT CALLED TO CHANGE

THE WHOLE CULTURE, BUT WE

ARE CALLED TO BE IN THE

INDIVIDUAL RELATIONS THAT

GOD CALLED US TO BE IN.

WHAT KIND OF CHURCH WILL

WE HAVE IN 100 YEARS?

HOW CAN WE BUILD MEDIA

COMPANIES AND SCHOOLS AND

COLLEGES AND STRUCTURES

THAT CAN LAST IN THIS NEW

KIND OF EXILE-TYPE

EXPERIENCE.

BECAUSE WE'RE NOT THE

MAJORITY ANYMORE.

HOW DO WE LIVE IN A

RELIGIOUSLY PLURAL

CULTURE.

I THINK DANIEL IN THE OLD

TESTAMENT IS A GREAT

EXAMPLE WHO GIVES US

FAITHFULNESS UNDER

PRESSURE, AND SERVES AS

SECRETARYCSECRETARY OF STATE UNDER

THREE DIFFERENT REGIMES,

BUT HE IS FAITHFUL TO

YAHWEH.

I THINK THIS FAITHFULNESS,

BEING COUNTER-CULTURAL,

AND SERVING THE NEEDS OF

OUR COMMUNITIES, BUILDING

GREAT BUSINESSES, BEING

THE VERY BEST NEIGHBORS,

THOSE ARE SOME OF THE

THINGS THAT COULD DEFINE

US IN THIS ERA OF

SKEPTICISM.

Gordon: IN IS A

GOODPOINT.

THE CHURCH IN 100 YEARS IN

AMERICA WILL LIKELY BE

HISPANIC.

THE DEMOGRAPHICS ARE

PRETTY UNAVOIDABLE.

AND THERE ARE

INCREDIBLE SIGNS OF GROWTH

AMONG CATHOLIC HISPANICS,

AS WELL AS AMONG CATHOLIC

HISPANICS CONVERTING TO

PROTESTANTISM.

THE HISPANIC CHRISTIAN

FUTURE IN AMERICA IS

REALLY GROWING.

Gordon: THE BOOK,

"GOOD FAITH, BEING A

CHRISTIAN WHEN SOCIETY

THINKS YOUR IRRELEVANT AND

EXTREME," AND DAVID HAS

PUT TOGETHER A WONDERFUL

BOOK.

I ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET IT.

IT IS AVAILABLE WHEREVER

BOOKS ARE BEING SOLD.

WE WANT TO KEEP THIS

CONVERSATION GOING, SO

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE

SHOW TODAY, SOME OF OUR

PRODUCERS WILL BE GOING

LIVE ON Facebook, AND

THEY WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU

ON THIS QUESTION: HOW CAN

WE BE EFFECTIVE CHRISTIANS

WHEN SOCIETY THINKS WE'RE

IRRELEVANT OR EXTREME.

DAVID, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

MY PLEASURE TO BE HERE.

Gordon: GOD BLESS

YOU.

TERRY, OVER TO YOU.

Terry: COMING UP, A

TRAVELLING EVANGELIST IN

UGANDA MEETS INA.

IN ABOUT 14 MINUTES, HE

SAID, I WANT TO GIVE MY

LIFE TO THE LORD.

Terry: HOW DID HIS

VILLAGE, KNOWN FOR ITS

WITCHCRAFT, RESPOND?

FIND OUT AFTER THIS.

Gordon: IN THE

AFRICAN NATION OF UGANDA,

SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS REAL.

AND WITCH DOCTORS CONTROL

ENTIRE VIL LAISMS.

VILLAGES.

AS STEVE LITTLE SHOWS US

IN THE LATEST "UNDER THE

RADAR," THEY'RE NO MATCH

FOR THE GOSPEL OF JESUS

CHRIST.

Reporter: THESE ARE

THE STORIES OF BELIEVERS,

STEPPING UNAN UP AND STEPPING

OUTSIDE CHURCH WALLS.

NOT LOOKING FOR ATTENTION;

SIMPLY LOVING THE WAY

JESUS DID.

THIS IS "UNDER THE RADAR."

PETER WAS A TRAVELLING

EVANGELIST, AND INOC WAS A

WITCH DOCTOR.

THIS ONE PARTICULAR

VILLAGE, IN A DISTRICT IN

A WHOLE COUNTRY THAT HAD A

LOT OF WITCHCRAFT.

EVERYBODY THAT TALKED

ABOUT IT KNEW THAT THE

PEOPLE THAT LIVED THERE,

THESE ARE PEOPLE THAT

WOULD BEWITCH YOU AND YOU

WOULD DIE IN A SHORT TIME.

Reporter: ONE DAY

PETER TOLD HIM TO TEACH

THE GOSPEL IN THAT

VILLAGE.

AND WHAT HAPPENED?

I SAID I'M HERE TO TELL

PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS.

AND I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS A

WITCH DOCTOR.

AND HE TOLD ME, PLEASE

TELL ME ABOUT THE LORD.

IN ABOUT 40 MINUTES, HE

SAID, I WANT TO GIVE MY

LIFE TO THE LORD.

I SAID, WOW, THIS IS

QUICK.

SO WE PRAYED TOGETHER.

Reporter: SOON INOC

LED HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER

TO THE LORD.

SO PETER STARTED A

BIBLE STUDY IN HIS HOUSE.

IN THE COURSE OF ONE

YEAR, WE HAD ABOUT 35

PEOPLE THAT HAD GIVEN

THEIR LIVES TO THE LORD.

Reporter: YOU KNOW

WHAT HAPPENED NEXT.

ON THE 25th OF

DECEMBER 2008, THE CHURCH

WAS STARTED THEN.

Reporter: TODAY, THE

CHURCH STARTED BY THE

EVANGELIST AND THE

ONE-TIME WITCH DOCTOR

HELPS FIGHT SPIRITUAL

DARKNESS IN UGANDA.

BUT THAT IS A STORY FOR

THE NEXT TIME.

THIS IS STEVE LITTLE FOR

"UNDER THE RADAR."

Gordon: EVIDENCE THAT

EVEN IN THE MOST DIFFICULT

CIRCUMSTANCES, THE POWER

OF GOD IS ABLE TO PREVAIL.

AND CHURCHES ARE BEING

BORN.

WE NEED TO RECOGNIZE THAT

WE'RE IN THE GREATEST

REVIVAL THE CHURCH HAS

EVER SEEN.

THIS IS AN AMAZING TIME.

THE FINAL IN-GATHERING OF

THE GENTILES.

WHAT THE APOSTLE POWELL

PROPHESIED IS HAPPENING

TODAY.

AND WE NEED TO REJOICE AT

WHAT IS GOING ON AROUND

THE WORLD.

Terry: BOY, THAT IS

FOR SURE.

IT IS EXCITING TO SEE

THAT.

A GOOD THING TO REMEMBER

ON THE HEELS OF OUR OWN

CULTURE GOING THROUGH

TRANSITION, RIGHT?

> EVERY DAY TAYLOR PUT

HIS LIFE ON THE LINE.

HE WAS A DEEP SEA DIVER

WHO HAD TO PROVIDE FOR HIS

FAMILY.

EVEN THOUGH HIS JOB WAS

DANGEROUS, IT STILL DIDN'T

PUT ENOUGH ON THE TABLE TO

EAT.

7-YEAR-OLD DITO WAITS ON

THE SHORES IN SOUTHERN

THAILAND, WONDERING IF

THIS IS THE DAY HIS FATHER

WILL COME HOME.

I MISS MY DADDY A LOT.

MOMMY AND I ALWAYS PRAY

FOR HIM.

I WISH DADDY WERE HERE

EVERY DAY.

Terry: HIS FATHER

DIVES FOR A LIVING, USING

A SINGLE HOSE ATTACHED TO

A COMPRESSOR.

HE MUST SWIM UP TO

130 FEET BELOW THE SURFACE

AND STAY UNDER WATER FOR

AN HOUR.

HE IS LOOKING FOR AN ASIAN

DELICACY.

MANY HAVE DIED OR BEEN

PARALYZED DOING THIS.

HE SAYS HE HAS BEEN LUCKY

SO FAR.

HE EARNS JUST $4 A DAY FOR

THE RISKY JOB.

IF I HADN'T TAKEN THE

JOB, MY FAMILY WOULD HAVE

NOTHING TO EAT.

THERE ARE NO OTHER JOBS

HERE.

I STILL HAVE TO BORROW

MONEY FOR FOOD.

Terry: BACK HOME,

TAYLOR'S WIFE TRIES TO

REPAIR THEIR FISHING NET.

THEY OWN A SMALL FISHING

BOAT, BUT WITH NO MOTOR.

CATCHING LARGER FISH TO

SELL IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE.

EVERY TIME MY HUSBAND

LEAVES, WE WONDER IF HE

WILL COME HOME SAFELY.

WE DONT WANT HI DON'T WANT HIM TO GO,

BUT WE NEED THE MONEY.

Terry: THE COUPLE

REALIZED THEY NEEDED TO

ASK FOR HELP.

THAT'S WHEN CBN'S

"ORPHANS' PROMISE" STARTED

A PRE-SCHOOL IN THEIR

COMMUNITY.

THERE THE CHILDREN ENJOY

HEALTHY LUNCHES.

MAWA EVEN WORKS PART-TIME

THERE, AND IS BRINGING IN

A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY FOR

THE FAMILY.

BECAUSE OF "ORPHANS'

PROMISE," MY CHILDREN HAVE

NOT MISSED A SINGLE MEAL.

AND I LOVE TEACHING THE

OTHER CHILDREN BIBLE

STORIES AND SONGS.

Terry: THEN WE WERE

ABLE TO HELP TAYLOR STAY

CLOSER TO HOME, BY GIVING

HIM A BOAT ENGINE AND SOME

NEW NETS.

I'M ABLE TO CATCH SO

MANY FISH AND CRABS, I CAN

BUY ENOUGH FOOD FOR MY

FAMILY FOR EVERY MEAL.

THANK YOU, CBN.

Terry: IF YOU'RE A

"700 CLUB" MEMBER, I HOPE

YOU CAN SEE IN THAT STORY

HOW YOUR KINDNESS, YOUR

COMPASSION, YOUR

GENEROSITY, TOUCHED AN

ENTIRE FAMILY.

WE WANT TO SAY THANK YOU.

GORDON?

Gordon: STILL AHEAD,

SHE WAS ASHAMED.

IT WAS ITCHING TO

THEPOINT OF PRACTICALLY

SEEING BLOOD.

BUT IT WAS TOO

EMBARRASSING.

Gordon: AND SHE

COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT

IT.

HEAR WHAT GAVE HER BACK

HER LIFE, AFTER THIS.

Terry: SANDRA'S SKIN

WAS, WELL, EMBARRASSING.

THE YOUNG MOTHER HAD

RASHES AND BLISTERS THAT

COVERED HER BODY AND

FORCED HER TO STAY

INDOORS.

AND NO MATTER HOW MANY

CREAMS AND MEDS THE

DOCTORS DESCRIBED, NOTHING

WORKED, UNTIL SHE HEARD

GORDON GIVE A WORD OF

KNOWLEDGE.

IT WAS ITCHING TO THE

POINT OF ACTUALLY SEEING

BLOOD.

I WASN'T GOING OUT BECAUSE

IT WAS TOO EMBARRASSING.

Reporter: IN 2006,

SANDRA WENT TO THE DOCTOR

TO FIND A RELIEF FOR A

SEVERE RASH ON HER LEGS.

I WAS EXPLAINING THE

SYMPTOMS TO THE DOCTOR,

AND HE JUST TOLD ME, WELL,

IT'S A FORM OF ECZEMA.

HE SAID IT CAN JUST

GRADUALLY COME ABOUT.

AND THE BEST HE CAN DO WAS

TO PRESCRIBE SOME CREAMS

FOR ME.

Reporter: THE OVER

THE COUNTER CREAM THAT THE

DOCTOR PRESCRIBED DIDN'T

WORK.

THAT SUMMER NEW SYMPTOMS

APPEARED.

I NOTICED BLISTERS ON

MY HANDS.

SO I WENT BACK TO THE

DOCTOR.

AND HE SAID, YES, THIS IS

ANOTHER FORM OF ECZEMA AND

IT COMES OUT IN THE HEAT.

Reporter: HER DOCTOR

PRESCRIBED MORE CREAMS.

THE DOCTORS WERE PRETTY

NEGATIVE.

THEY JUST SAID THAT THAT'S

ALL THEY COULD DO, AND I

WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH

IT.

II WAS TOO SELF-CONSCIOUS.

IT WAS TW TOO EMBARRASSLY.

I WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING.

Reporter: SANDRA

LIVED WITH THE ITCHING AND

EMBARRASSMENT FOR TWO

YEARS.

DURING THIS TIME SHE

STARTED PRAYING AND

READING HER BIEBLG.

>BIBLE.

MATTHEW SAYS, I TAKE

CARE OF THE BIRDS IN THE

AIR, THE FLOWERS, HOW MUCH

MORE WILL I TAKE CARE OF

YOU?

THAT KEPT COMING AROUND IN

MY HEAD.

I SAID, I KNOW HE LOVES

ME, SO I'LL JUST KEEP

PRAYING.

THAT'S ALL I CAN DO.

Reporter: THEN ONE

DAY SHE WAS WATCHING "THE

700 CLUB."

THEN THE WORD OF

KNOWLEDGE CAME ON, AND

GORDON STARTED TALKING

ABOUT SOMEONE WITH ECZEMA.

Gordon: YOU HAVE A

SKIN CONDITION AND IT IS

CAUSING BUBBLES ON THE

SKIN.

THEY'RE, LIKE, FILLED WITH

FLUIDS, AND GOD IS HEALING

THAT.

HE IS TAKING THAT ALL AWAY

FROM YOU RIGHT NOW.

IN JESUS' NAME.

Terry: THANK YOU,

LORD.

Gordon: BE HEALED.

AMEN.

I KIND OF JUMPED UP AND

DOWN CLAIMING IT.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.

OUT OF EVERYONE THAT WAS

WATCHING, YOU PAID

ATTENTION TO ME.

I KNEW GOD WAS DOING

SOMETHING FOR ME.

AS SOON AS I STARTED

FEELING THE TINGLING ON MY

LEGS, I KNEW IT WAS

HAPPENING.

HE WAS HEALING ME.

MAYBE WASN'T RIGHT AWAY.

BUT HE WAS WORKING.

Reporter: WITHIN SIX

MONTHS, ALL OF HER

SYMPTOMS OF ECZEMA WERE

COMPLETELY GONE.

MY CONFIDENCE CAME

BACK.

I WAS NOT EMBARRASSED

ANYMORE.

I WAS VERY EXCITED.

Reporter: SANDRA

OFFERS ENCOURAGEMENT ON

ANYONE WAITING ON GOD FOR

HEALING.

I WOULD SAY, DON'T GIVE

UP.

CERTAINLY PRAY.

AND TALK TO JESUS.

HE'S THE BEST PERSON TO GO

TO.

HE IS YOUR CREATOR.

HE IS A BIG GOD.

I KNOW GOD HEALS TODAY

BECAUSE HE HEALED ME.

Terry: AND HE CAN

HEAL YOU, TOO.

WE'VE RECEIVED SOME PRAYER

REQUESTS ON Facebook,

AND BEFORE WE PRAY TODAY,

WE JUST WANT TO SHARE

THOSE WITH YOU SO WE CAN

ALL PRAY TOGETHER AS

FAMILY.

INGRID WRITES, "PLEASE

PRAY FOR ME.

THE DOCTORS FOUND SOME

NODULES IN MY THYROID AND

I WILL HAVE A BIOPSY ON

JUNE 7th.

PLEASE PRAY IT ISN'T

CANCER AND FOR COMPLETE

HEALING AND PEACE OF

MIND."

JULIE SAYS, "MY

ONE-MONTH-OLD COOPER IS

GOING TO FOR TESTING FOR

CYSTIC FIBROSIS.

PLEASE PRAY ALL OF THE

TESTS OF NEGLECT."

Gordon: AND DARIUS

SAYS, "PLEASE PRAY FOR THE

REFUGEES COMING INTO

GERMANY AS WE WORK TO SAVE

THEM, AND MAKE JESUS KNOWN

TO THEM SO THEY CAN ACCEPT

HIM AS THEIR SAVIOR.

I AM A VOLUNTARY

MISSIONARY."

LET'S PRAY AND REALIZE

THAT GOD PAYS ATTENTION TO

YOU.

HE KNOWS THE VERY HAIRS ON

YOUR HEAD.

HE HAS EVERY ONE OF THEM

NUMBERED.

IF HE CARES FOR THE BIRDS

OF THE AIR -- THAT'S WHAT

JESUS SAID, IF HE CARES

FOR THEM, HOW MUCH MORE

DOES HE CARE ABOUT YOU?

HOW MUCH MORE ARE YOU

VALUABLE TO HIM?

ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS

BELIEVE THAT AND DWELL IN

THAT AND UNDERSTAND THAT.

AND THEN EVERYTHING ELSE

COMES INTO PLACE.

SO WE'RE GOING TO PRAY.

WE'RE GOING TO PRAY FOR

THESE REQUESTS, AND WE'RE

GOING TO PRAY FOR YOU.

SO JOIN WITH US IN PRAYER,

AND THERE IS THIS

WONDERFUL VERSE, IF TWO OR

MORE AGREE, IT SHALL BE

DONE BY OUR FATHER IN

HEAVEN.

SO TERRY AND I ARE GOING

TO AGREE.

THE AUDIENCE IS GOING TO

AGREE.

YOU JOIN IN AND LET'S

AGREE TOGETHER AND SEE

WHAT GOD WILL DO.

LET'S PRAY.

LORD, WE JUST LIFT THE

NEEDS, THE ONES THAT HAVE

BEEN WRITTEN IN RIGHT NOW.

WE PRAY FOR INGRID AND WE

ASK FOR COMPLETE HEALING

FOR HER AND FOR COOPER.

YOU JUST TREASURE HIM.

BE WITH THEM NOW, LORD

GOD.

LET YOUR PRESENCE SURROUND

THEM AND BE ALL OVER THEM

AND IN THEM, AND STRETCH

FORTH YOUR HAND TO DO

MIRACLES AND WONDERS,

SIGNS AND WONDERS,

MIRACLES ON THE EARTH,

LORD GOD.

LET YOUR WILL BE DONE ON

EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.

AND NOW FOR THE REFUGEES

COMING INTO GERMANY, FOR

THOSE IN GREECE,

MACEDONIA, FOR ALL OF

THEM, WE JUST ASK THAT YOU

WOULD REVEAL YOURSELF TO

THEM.

OPEN THEIR EYES, LORD GOD,

THAT THEY MAY SEE.

OPEN THEIR EARS THAT THEY

MAY HEAR YOUR VOICE.

GIVE THEM A HEART OF

UNDERSTANDING SO THAT THEY

WOULD TURN AND FIND

SALVATION WITH YOU.

AND NOW FOR THOSE WHO ARE

WATCHING, WE JUST DECLARE

OVER THEM THAT YOU ARE THE

ANSWER TO EVERY HUMAN

NEED.

YOU PROVIDE FOR ALL.

YOU SHOW NO PARTIALITY.

YOU'RE NOT A RESPECTER OF

PERSONS.

YOU WANT TO COME TO THEM

RIGHT NOW AND LOVE THEM.

SO, JESUS, MANIFEST

YOURSELF RIGHT IN THEIR

PRESENCE NOW.

AND OPEN THEIR EYES THAT

THEY CAN SEE.

OPEN THEIR EARS SO THEY

CAN TURN AND YOU WOULD

HEAL THEM.

TERRY, YOU'VE GOT A WORD?

Terry: I WANT TO PRAY

THAT THOSE WHO ARE HEARING

WOULD BECOME OBEDIENT.

THAT, HOLY SPIRIT, YOU

WOULD BREATHE THAT FRESH

LIFE INTO THEIR HEARTS

THAT SAYS, I WANT TO

FOLLOW JESUS.

GIVE FAITH AND COURAGE --

FAITH TO BELIEVE FOR THOSE

WHO HAVE STOOD ON SHALLOW

GROUND AND ROCKY GROUND,

LORD.

PRAY THAT THEY WOULD SET

THEIR FEET ON THE ROCK OF

JESUS CHRIST.

Gordon: THERE IS A

WOMAN NAMED MARJORIE WHO

IS SEEING FLASHES OF

LIGHT.

YOU'VE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH

A DETACHED RETINA.

AND YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT

GOING BLIND.

JESUS WANTS TO CALL YOU BY

NAME AND LET YOU KNOW HE

IS HEALING THAT.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO

BLIND.

YOU'RE GOING TO SEE

PERFECTLY IN JESUS' NAME.

AMEN AND AMEN.

RIGHT AFTER THE SHOW,

WE'LL BE LIVE ON

Facebook, AND WE WANT TO

HEAR FROM YOU ON THE

TOPIC: HOW CAN WE BE

EFFECTIVE CHRISTIANS WHEN

SOCIETY THINKS WE'RE

IRRELEVANT.

JUST GO TO Facebook.COM.

THAT'S ALL OF THE TIME WE

HAVE.

GOD BLESS YOU.

WE'LL SEE YOU AGAIN

TOMORROW.
