- [Narrator] RetiredV.A. nurse, Joyce Mack,

has been an avid viewer of"The 700 Club" since the 1970s,

when she'd tune in to hearPat Robertson's insights.

- It kinda taught mehow to read the Bible,

what I was to look for in the Bible.

He always went intodetail about what it meant

or what a word would mean.

(gentle music)

- [Narrator] Joyce alsofollowed "The 700 Club"

for another, more personal reason.

She often called the 24-hour prayer center

to pray for her husband, Otto,

a veteran of two wars who wasbattling PTSD and alcoholism.

- I would just wake up and be upset.

They're the only people I know I can call

at three o'clock in the morning.

(phone rings)

- [Narrator] During someof their hardest moments,

talking with the CBN prayerteam gave Joyce hope.

- We would pray about Otto's drinking.

We'd pray about being patient.

We'd pray that Godwould answer the prayer.

I usually slept better, (laughs) yeah.

- [Narrator] Those prayers were answered

when a friend led Otto to accept Christ.

He immediately stopped drinking,

and he and Joyce had a freshstart in their marriage.

- He was able to love more.

Every day we read the Bible together.

Every day, Otto insisted on that.

- [Narrator] Grateful forhow CBN had helped her,

Joyce decided to become a CBN partner.

- They have this passion

to have everybody know about Christ.

I always feel this when they go on there

and really preach your need for Jesus.

And I like that.

- [Narrator] Otto passed away in 1991,

but Joyce still supports CBN,

and she's grateful that "The 700 Club"

continues to help peoplelike her around the globe.

- [Joyce] Whether it's justto touch or to cry with them,

or just whisper that God loves you,

they're spreading the gospel.

I think that is the mostwonderful thing in the world.
