- [Announcer] The followingprogram is sponsored by CBN.

- [Wendy] Coming up, kidnapped by ISIS.

- [Interpreter] We knew thatthey were going to take us

out of this house.

- [Wendy] Forced to convert to Islam.

- [Interpreter] All these houses

were full of Yazidi families.

- [Wendy] Her husband was killed.

- [Interpreter] I will never forget

the suffering they caused us.

- [Wendy] She was traded as a sex slave.

- ISIS treated these women as subhuman.

- [Wendy] Her harrowing story.

- [Interpreter] I never thought

that one day I would be free.

- [Wendy] On today's "700 Club."

(dramatic music)

- Well welcome, folks, to thisedition of "The 700 Club."

Adding fuel to the fire,

new information that the Atlanta cop

who shot and killed RayshardBrooks had been reprimanded

about a use of force.

To quell the protests rocking Atlanta

and other parts of America,

President Trump is set tosign an executive order

on police reform today.

But will that be enoughto stop the violence?

Dale Hurd reports.

- New information today thatthe Atlanta police officer

who shot and killed Rayshard Brooks

had received a written reprimand in 2017

over use of force involving a firearm.

This is the newly released 911 call

that led up to the fatal shootingof the 27-year-old Brooks

in a Wendy's parking lot.

- [Caller] He's in themiddle of my drive-through.

- [Operator] Ma'am, does heappear to have any weapons

from where you can see it?

- [Caller] No, no, Ithink he's intoxicated.

- [Dale] Here's surveillancein police body cam footage.

- Stop.- You're gonna get tased.

You're gonna get tased.- Stop.

- [Dale] As Brooks is running away,

you see him point the stungun he took from officers

at Garrett Rolfe, whothen fired three shots.

Brooks later died at the hospital.

(protestors shouting)

And that set off protestsovernight in Atlanta.

- Atlanta's mayor has ordered a list

of new police procedures.

- I'm also requiringdeescalation generally

and specifically prior tothe use of deadly force.

- I thought it was a terrible,

but I'm not gonna compare things,

but I thought it was a terrible situation.

- The incident comes as thenation has been engulfed

in protest over thekilling of George Floyd

and Washington is taking action.

Democrats have alreadyintroduced a police reform bill

and President Trump is expectedto sign an executive order

on police reforms today.

The executive order wouldincentivize police agencies

to adopt best practices on use of force,

share information aboutofficers' misconduct

and use social workersin nonviolent situations.

Republicans are expected

to release a bill onpolice reform Wednesday.

Dale Hurd, CBN News.

- Well Senator James Lankfordof Oklahoma is working

with Tim Scott

on the police reform taskforce.

Senator, what do you think isgonna come out of the Senate

on this bill?

- Well there'll be severalthings that'll come out.

Basic transparency is always needed,

but that'll come out ofthis police reform bill.

So if a police officer hastheir employment records,

they've moved to anotherplace to be able to work,

their employment records needto be able to move with them.

If there's a use of force,

whether that be for severe bodily injury

or if someone dies in police custody,

that information needs to be collected

on a national level as well.

About 40% of the departmentsalready collect that

and turn that into the FBI.

We'd like for that tobe turned in nationwide.

We want people to be ableto see what's going on

in different law enforcementsand quite frankly,

for the good police officers to be able

to identify bad police officersthat are in their midst,

that are distracting from thework that's happening there

and from the good reputationof people doing law enforcement

all over the country.

But there'll be about15 different proposals

that will roll out tomorrowin our total package.

- Is there a police unionthat might stand in the way

of those reforms?

- Well we're gonna talkwith the police unions.

This has been a challenge

and several police officershave actually identified to me

to say that at times aperson is actually fired

or goes through a process of arbitration.

At the end of that arbitrationthey're put back on the force

and the other officers thatwork with them are frustrated

because they know thatthis person doesn't have

what it takes to be a goodpolice officer on the street.

And so there's a couple ofthings that we're trying

to be able to work through.

One is we want to continue tobe able to work with unions.

The union individuals

and all those kinds offolks are not our problem,

it's the system thatthey've created on this

where it pushes peopleback out onto the street

that maybe they're not atthat spot to be able to be.

So we want to get morehelp to police officers

because they deal with verydifficult issues all day long.

It's not unlikely for a police officer

to deal with a domestic violence,

to be able to deal with a sexual assault,

to be able to deal with a person

that's actually trying to steal

and be able to run away from them

and then go work at aschool later on that day.

There's a lot of emotionthat's built up in that

and we want to make sure thatwe're helping police officers

in every way that we can.

But we're also bringingpeople alongside of them

to say if there's someonein the middle of the group

that's distracting from the good work

that's happening in law enforcement,

we need to help themfind a different thing

to be able to do.

- Can Mitch McConnell andyou all get this thing

through the Senate and throughthe Congress by July the 4th?

I think that's the deadlineyou're setting for it.

- So we're trying to get thisthrough as quickly as we can.

Obviously everything in hereneeds bipartisan support.

Democrats have already put outtheir proposal in the House.

There are some areasof common ground there.

For instance, there's ananti-lynching section of it

that we've worked on together for years.

So there's several areas

that we're gonna find common ground on.

The difficulty will bein some of the areas

where we don't have common ground

and the hope is to beable to work those out.

We're all trying to get to a result

to be able to help as muchas we can across the country.

Support law enforcement,

but to be able to deal withany issues that are out there

and to be able to makesure we are deescalating

and that we are findingways to be able to say

there's a better way to serve and protect

that's not as violent.

- Well what do you thinkis causing all of this,

well the civil discord and race relations?

Is it the police brutality

or is something underlying all this

that needs to be dealt with?

- Yeah so we have a bigchallenge, obviously, in America

dealing with race

because we are actually dealing with race.

What's interesting on this

is a lot of countries around the world

still don't deal with race.

People are still very isolatedand there is no desire,

people stay separated.

In the United States we are not.

We have 400 years of historystacked on top of each other

with slavery, with Jim Crow laws,

with all different thingsthat dealt with race

for a very long time to suppress

and now we have worked for decades now

to be able to unwind all of that

and to be able to give opportunities.

We have a lot of peoplethat are very successful

in our country that are African-Americans,

obviously we've had anAfrican-American president,

we have African-American billionaires,

we have successful leadersin media and sports

and in business and in life and family.

So there's lots of greatexamples and greater resilience,

but there's also individuals

that are still pushingdown African-Americans

simply because of preference.

So that's something we got to deal with,

but that's not something youcan vote on, that's families.

And what I challenge families on is,

has your family ever inviteda family of another race

into your home for a meal,

just to be able to come overfor a meal like friends would?

And I'm amazed at howmany people would say,

"I'm friendly with people of another race,

"but I've never developed a friendship

"with someone from another race."

There's never been anyonein your home for a meal

from another race and soit's a simple challenge.

The issue of race is a national issue,

but it really boils down tofamilies and individuals.

If individuals aren'tdeveloping relationships

with people of other race anddeveloping real friendships,

our nation is not developingthose kind of friendships.

And so I challenge families

to be able to develop those relationships

so our nation can workon this issue together.

- Well, Senator, we applaud your efforts.

I appreciate it so much

and thanks for being withus on "The 700 Club."

- Thank you.- Tremendous initiative.

By the way, I want topoint out somebody that is,

you know they talk nowabout defunding the police

and Representative Omarhas said something about,

"Well I want to defund the police,"

and I have this scriptureI want to share with you

from the Book of Romans.

It says, "Let everyone be subject

"to the governing authorities,for there is no authority

"except that which God has established.

"The authorities that existhave been established by God.

"Consequently, whoeverrebels against the authority

"is rebelling againstwhat God has instituted

"and those who do so willbring judgment on themselves."

Well that's what the ApostlePaul said in the Roman Empire

with those terrible Roman emperors,

he said the governing authority.

Now we have no king, no emperor,

and the people are theones that are in charge

and we set up these lawsand police are our agents

and to rebel against them is so wrong.

But at the same time,

the right of the people topetition their government

for redress of grievancesshall not be abridged.

So we have a right for peaceful protest

and if there is a problem,

we ought to be able to peaceably solve it.

But these riots, this looting

and all this business is wrong,

it is ungodly and it iscontrary to what the Bible says.

So we believe in peaceful protest

and the right of the peopleto petition their government

for redress of grievances.

If you look back at thehistory of the United States,

we started in a revolutionagainst the King of England

and oppressive laws that were put in place

by the parliament of England

and we got the whole concept

of taxation withoutrepresentation is tyranny

and I remember Patrick Henry.

I remember, but I wasn't there,

(laughs) but I'd like to sayold Patrick and I were buddies

but I--- Like this. (laughs)

- But that marvelous speech,

"Is life so dear or peace so sweet,

"as to be purchased at theprice of chains and slavery?

"Forbid it, Almighty God.

"As for me, I know no course except,"

you know that's what he's gonna do,

"give me liberty or give me death."

And we wanted liberty and Ithink our people want liberty,

but we do not want anoppressive police force

and we certainly do notwant racial injustice

in this country.

And I think that we can get a balance,

but we cannot permit this stuffthat's going on in Seattle,

for example.

I saw Mike Huckabee the other day,

it was brilliant what he had to say.

He said, "Look," what did they call it,

that free zone in Seattle?

He said, "It's real simple.

"Cut off their electricity,cut off their power,

"cut off their sewer andcut off their internet

"and then see how farthey're gonna survive

"as this, 'free nation.'"

Well we don't want,again, an armed conflict,

but nevertheless, "Hethat resists the authority

"that is ordained by God isviolating God," all right?

Well in other news, thePresident is sending a warning

to former National SecurityAdvisor John Bolton.

He says, "I'm gonna sueyou over your new book."

And John Jessup is saying, "Maybe not."

- Well, Pat, President Trump says

Bolton could face criminal charges

if he moves forward with hisbook's publication next week.

Administration officialsusually sign an agreement

requiring them to submit toa process for vetting books

for sensitive or classified information.

The President and AttorneyGeneral Bill Barr claim

Bolton has fallen short.

- And we don't believe

that Bolton went through that process,

hasn't completed the process

and therefore is inviolation of that agreement.

- [John] Now Bolton's attorney says

his client has spent months working

with the National Security Council

to avoid publishingclassified information.

He's accusing the WhiteHouse of using the process

to block the book's release.

It is titled, "The Room Where it Happened,

"A White House Memoir,"

and is expected to paintan unflattering picture

of the President's decision making, Pat.

- Well I don't know what it's gonna be,

but the thing about Boltonwas that he really was right

in terms of analyzing the dangers we felt.

He wanted bold action overand over and over again

and I think the Presidenthad to hold him back.

He thought these dictatorsneeded to be reined in.

We need to take strong action

against some of them like Kim Jong-un

and Erdogan of Turkey and others

and the President resisted that.

So anyhow, they had thatclash, but Bolton is a good guy

but he needs to follow thelaw like everybody else

and I hate to see him get introuble because of this book.

But if the attorney generalsays he hasn't complied,

then he's got to comply, it'sjust one of those things.

John.

- Pat, critics say theSupreme Court redefined

the meaning of sex Monday

in a landmark rulingprotecting LGBT employees.

And as Paul Strand reports,

many fear it will alsohave a profound impact

on religious freedom.

- [Paul] The Court's rulingsays you can't discriminate

on the basis of sex, whichin 1964 meant male or female.

But sex now means bothyour sexual orientation

and your gender identity.

- They've ruled, I've read the decision

and some people were surprised,

but they've ruled and welive with their decision.

That's what it's all about.

We live with the decisionof the Supreme Court.

Very powerful, verypowerful decision actually,

but

they have so ruled.

- LGBTQ groups are rejoicing.

The organization Out and Equal announced,

"The Supreme Court has made its statement.

"Our bedrock civil rightsprotections do apply

"to LGBTQ workers.

"This is a momentousday for the community."

Judicial Crisis Network'sCarrie Severino suggested

that justices had toreally twist the meaning

of sex discrimination toinclude these new categories.

- It's very clear that howeverpeople might read that today

in 2020, that is nowhere near

how those words were understood in 1964

and for many decades thereafter.

- [Paul] The case involvedhomosexuals fired from their jobs

and a man who wanted toidentify as a woman fired

from his job at a funeral home.

But the case has broadimplications outside the workplace.

- Is it gonna be discrimination

to not use a preferred pronoun?

Will employers now berequired to cover healthcare

when it comes to differenttransition-related things?

What about religious employers?

- Things like bathroom usage.

Things like whetherwomen's sports can continue

to exist as we know it ifthey're forced to allow men

to participate in those same sports.

A lot of religious freedom questions.

- [Paul] Alliance DefendingFreedom's Kate Anderson

represented a women's shelter in Alaska.

- It had to allow a biological man

who identified as female into the shelter

where he would sleep mere feet from women,

many of whom had beenabused, trafficked, raped.

These are women who, becauseof their past trauma,

really couldn't bearound a biological male

while they slept.

- As for people of faith,

Tony Perkins at the FamilyResearch Council warned,

"This ruling poses a gravethreat to religious liberty."

And Southern BaptistConvention's Russell Moore

predicts years of lawsuitsand court struggles.

Paul Strand, CBN News, Washington.

- Paul and Pat, it wasa surprise 6-3 ruling

with the majority opinion written

by Trump appointee, Justice Neil Gorsuch.

- I'm not quite surewhat they were saying.

That person was fired

because

he was

homosexual.

That's a little differentfrom saying a college has got

to have a sports team

with males running against females.

But like so many things,

you know our society works very nicely

if we allow the peopleto make the decisions.

But every time you take thatdecision making power away

from the people and give it

to five unelected guys on a Supreme Court,

all of a sudden you've got problems.

We had the problem with Roe v.Wade, we've had it for years.

And over and over againyou've got all these things,

the people say,

"Well we don't think that gaymarriage is a good thing."

All across the nation thepeople didn't want to,

it was suddenly there was thatruling in the Supreme Court

that says, "Oh no, we're gonnalegalize same sex marriage,"

and suddenly there's a chorus of problems.

And here again I am surprised that Gorsuch

and men that were so conservative,and Roberts, have voted,

but I'm not sure of the extentof what that ruling means.

Well does it mean thata university has got

to have men running in thetrack team against women

in a so-called women'ssport under the Title IX?

- Well I think what Paul said is true.

There are gonna be a lotof legal repercussions.

- Oh we haven't begun to see the trouble.

Every time they stepinto something like this

and take the power away from the people,

you're gonna haveconstant, constant trouble.

Roe v. Wade was an openinggun, but then that decision

that was made about homosexual marriage,

it went against theexpress will of the people

of almost every state in the union.

And now the Supreme Court,maybe, has done it again.

I'm not sure how extensive this ruling is

and later cases willdetermine exactly what it is,

but nevertheless you just look in horror.

How can they do it to us?

Terry.

- Well coming up later, code blue.

A man's heart suddenly stops beating,

he has no pulse and hestops breathing on his own.

Dead for 55 minutes, howdid he come back to life?

But first, a shocking story.

A young woman sold as a slavealong with her two children

and repeatedly raped.

You'll never guess who kidnapped them

and how they finally got free.

(somber music)

(dramatic music)

- Where did it happen and who did it?

Kidnapping, rape, sex slavery,

these atrocities were common

when ISIS controlledparts of Syria and Iraq.

They call it the caliphate.

Well U.S. led the coalition forces

drove out the brutal jihadist group,

but even though they lost their territory,

they still kept their female captives.

Our Chuck Holden went over there

to find out the story of one woman

who finally escaped morethan five years of captivity.

Watch this.

- [Chuck] Six years ago, LeilaTaalo was kidnapped by ISIS,

along with her entire family.

They're Yazidi, an ancient people

who were brutally oppressed by ISIS

when the terror groupflooded into their area

in Northern Iraq in 2014.

After their capture fromtheir home in Sinjar,

her family was forciblyconverted to Islam.

This allowed her family to live

as second-class citizens for a while,

working for the IslamicState mainly as herders,

along with other Yazidiswho were moved there.

- [Interpreter] This is the room

where my husband and I were living.

All these houses werefull of Yazidi families,

they were living here.

- [Chuck] But after some Yazidis escaped,

the militants gathered allthe men and took them away,

never to be seen again.

Many were killed anddumped into this sinkhole

where their bones can stillbe seen whitening in the sun.

- [Interpreter] We knew thatthey were going to take us

out of this house.

We were worried about the mobile phones,

that they would find outwe had mobile phones,

so my brother's wife andI took two mobile phones

and buried them here.

We hid them in the ground andthere were cigarettes, too.

- Without her husband to protect her,

Taalo and her two childrenwere sold as slaves.

She and other Yazidi womenwere traded like livestock

and raped repeatedly by every new owner.

Twice she became pregnant,

but the Saudi man responsible forced her

to abort the babies, eventhough it was forbidden by ISIS.

The city of Sinjar was liberated

by Kurdish Peshmerga forces in late 2015.

Days afterward, I toured the empty city.

You know if you ever heard

of the city of Stalingrad in World War II,

this is what I imagine it looking like.

Look at this, everythingjust collapsed, destroyed.

It's just a wrecked and shattered city.

It just goes to show thatISIS only comes to kill

and steal and destroy, justlike someone else we know.

Dr. Anne Speckhard has interviewed dozens

of escaped Yazidi womenand their families.

- One Yazidi family that Ispoke to was, step by step,

buying their daughtersback from ISIS operatives.

And it tells you thatthere's something corrupt

and horrible going on thatISIS is still able to operate.

ISIS treated these women as subhuman

and you know subjected them to rape

and treated them as slaves.

- [Chuck] Leila was abused byat least seven different men

during her captivity.

Her family was finallyable to secure her release

by paying a ransom of over $19,000.

She recently took journalists back

to see where her ordeal took place.

- [Interpreter] I wishI was back in the past,

even if I was in the handsof the Islamic State,

but at least I was livingwith my family here,

my brothers and my husband were alive.

No matter how long thecaptivity, five years or more,

as long as we are togetherand not separated,

regardless of the sufferingand no matter what happens,

but not to lose them.

- [Chuck] The systematicabuse of women continues

in many places,

but only under ISIS was itgiven theological justification

and many women have yet to be freed.

According to Kurdish authorities,

at least 2,900 Yazidis have yet

to be returned to their families,

including more than 1,300 women and girls.

- [Interpreter] When Iwas here I never thought

that one day I would be free.

Now I am here and I am free, thank God,

but I will never forget thesuffering they caused us.

- [Chuck] But for Leilaand those still waiting,

closure won't come untilevery Yazidi girl comes home.

For CBN News, I'm Chuck Holton.

- The horrors of war.

That Baghdadi and that ISISwas a horrible, horrible thing

and what they did to those women,

but we need to do everythingwe can to get them free.

Whatever, you cannotallow them to continue.

ISIS supposedly is dead,Baghdadi was killed,

but, but, but what about the women?

We want to do what we can to help them.

Terry.

- Well still ahead, a YouTube favorite,

- We want to introduceyou now to a man who died.

He coded, he was dead,what got him to life?

Tony Dunn, he said, "I'm out of the woods

"and ready to go homeafter I had surgery,"

and then suddenly, Tony'sheart stopped beating.

And Tony had no pulse

and he was no longer breathing on his own.

Tony was dead.

What happened next?

- The diagnosis alone forpancreatic cancer was devastating.

I just felt there was no hope,

I really felt there wasno hope at that point.

- [Reporter] In 2013,Beverly Dunn's husband, Tony,

was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

Beverly is a nurse

and knew the odds oflongterm survival were slim.

- Usually when pancreatic cancer is found,

it's found way too late.

I didn't really see anoutcome for it other than

death.

- [Reporter] Two months later,

Tony underwent a Whipple procedure,

a radical surgery thatremoves parts of the stomach,

pancreas, gall bladderand small intestine.

Tony's son, Justin, sayshis dad was eager to go home

after the surgery.

- Every time we visitedhe was always focused

on doing what he had to do.

Gettin' up and walkin' around,

to do what he could do tospeed his recovery along

as quickly as he couldso that he could get back

to normal life.

- [Reporter] Unknown to everyone,

he was allergic to theblood thinner, heparin.

The day he was to be released,

Tony struggled to breathedue to clotting in his lungs.

Then he suffered a pulmonary embolism.

Nurse Bill Bolton was there

when Tony's heartsuddenly stopped beating.

- There was no pulse and hewas not breathing on his own.

If the nurses I wasworkin' with and myself,

if we stopped pumpin' on his chest

he didn't have a heart rhythm.

He was essentially dead.

- [Reporter] A team of doctorsdescended on Tony's room

in an effort to revive him.

Meanwhile calls went outto family and friends

to pray for Tony.

His daughter, Tara,remembers getting the call.

- I fell to the floor

and I just cried out,

"Please, Jesus," andthat's all I could say.

I just

knew

that there was power in that name.

- Our family and friendswere beginning to gather.

They were in the room with us.

We were wall-to-wall peoplethat had heard what was going on

and joined us.

Prayer was what we had and weknew that God would hear us.

- I knew that our Creator,

all powerful, had the ability to intervene

in my dad's circumstances right then

and in my heart I wasstill holdin' on to hope.

- [Reporter] 30 minutes into the code,

a doctor came out to update the family.

- He said to me that nothingthey were doing was working.

That they couldn't get a heartbeat

and that there wasnothing that was working.

- [Reporter] As lifesavingmeasures continued,

Beverly and Justin wereallowed into the room.

- It was very apparent duringthose few moments in the room

that they were doingeverything in their power

to give my dad a chance to live.

- I felt like Tony was already gone.

His eyes were open.

They had a glazed over lookas if nothing was there.

But I bent down to him and I asked him,

"Just please don't leave.

"Just don't leave."

At that time I wasn't ready for him to go.

- [Reporter] 55 minutes afterTony's heart quit beating,

his doctor came out of the room once again

to talk with Beverly.

- He had a reallypuzzled look on his face,

a really questioning lookon his face and he said,

"You have hope.

"We have a heartbeat."

Almost like the words that he was speaking

he was hardly believing.

- [Reporter] Miraculously,Tony's heart was beating

on its own again, but nowmore challenges lay ahead

as Tony faced thepossibility of brain damage

due to lack of oxygen during the code.

- The longer a code transpires,

or the more time thatgoes on during the code,

the more likely that theperson that is being coded

is gonna have some kind of brain injury

due to

not efficient compression of the heart.

- [Reporter] It was nearly certain

he would have some level of brain damage.

Three days later, Tonystarted moving his hands

as if trying to communicate.

His daughter, Tara, got a paper and pen.

- Beverly asked him ifhe knew what had happened

and why he was there and hewrote, "Pulmonary embolism,"

with perfect handwritingand perfectly spelled.

And we're all just lookin'at each other goin',

"How is this even possible?"

You know nobody anticipated that at all.

- At that point we knew he's all there.

We're just waiting forhim to progress forward

and we'll talk to him in a little bit.

- [Reporter] To the doctor's amazement,

Tony survived without any brain damage.

Family, friends andhospital staff were amazed

at how God was with them andhad answered their prayers.

- God intervened in everythingwe needed for his healing.

- The promises that he gave

2,000-plus years ago

are still relevant today.

"Where two or three aregathered, he will be there."

And he was, he showed up in a big way.

- My own personal feeling is

is that it was a divine intervention

that God was sayin', "I'm not done."

- [Reporter] More thanfive years have passed

since his surgery and miraculous survival.

Follow-up scans haverevealed Tony is cancer-free,

with no need for chemo or radiation.

He says he's thankful for newlife in his body and his soul.

- I have a confidence in Godthat I didn't have before

and it goes beyond faith.

You know faith is what you don't see

and it's as though nowhe made my faith sight.

And you know I'm thankfulto God for what he's done.

- I am so thankful

for believers in prayer

that were around us that took us to God.

- We felt the love of Godbecause of their presence

and because of theirwillingness to serve our family.

- I do believe that the keyto what happened with me rests

in the faith of those who surrounded me.

They fought for me when I wasunable to fight for myself.

"The promises of God made 2,000 years ago

"are still relevant today."

Believe me, they are.

and during the show, Pat,

"There's a lung problem.

"There is a fungus onyour lungs like a growth.

"Put your hand on your chest.

"In the name of Jesus, touch."

Mary Ann claimed the healing.

When she went for her pre-op appointment,

her doctor confirmed it wasn't cancer,

it was just an infection.

- Well God knew what was wrong with you

and he knows what's wrong with you.

of the administration's pushto help the economy recover

from the coronavirus lockdowns.

The Department ofTransportation is preparing

a preliminary version

in which most of the money would be used

for traditional infrastructure,like bridges and roads,

but some money would also beused for 5G wireless technology

and broadband internet in rural areas.

Well turning overseas,

dramatic actiondemonstrating rising tensions

on the Korean peninsula today.

North Korea blew up aliaison office building

just north of the heavily-armedborder with the South today

in a theatrical display of anger.

No South Koreans were working there

and the demolition is largely symbolic,

though it still makes it difficult

for South Korea to continuenormal relations with the North.

Well you can always getthe latest from CBN News

by going to our website at cbnnews.com.

Pat and Terry will be backwith more of "The 700 Club"

right after this.(dramatic music)

(upbeat music)

- Today, Morris and Ethel Foret

own a thriving cleaningcompany, but years ago,

Hurricane Katrina nearlywiped out their business.

During their time of greatest need,

the couple did something counterintuitive.

The result, a random phone call

that led to a booming business.

Take a look.

(somber music)

- [Reporter] In August 2005,

Hurricane Katrina ripped itsway through the Gulf Coast.

Bayou natives, Morris and Ethel Foret,

were relieved to be safe,

but as the owners of a cleaning company,

they feared the storm hadput them out of business.

- Everybody was gone, thebuildings were flooded.

- I thought possibly it wouldhave been end of the game.

- Morris was saying,"Let's move to Dallas."

That was his, you know,

go to plan.

- [Reporter] While Morris wanted

to skip town and start over,

Ethel felt God wanted themto remain in Louisiana.

- I was just saying,

"Look, look, let's seewhat the Lord is gonna do.

"You know, give theLord a chance to work."

- [Reporter] Throughout their marriage,

the Forets had been consistent tithers.

They had seen God provide forthem even in the lean times

and even though they weredevastated by Katrina,

they kept the faith.

- As I said, "We have to look forward

"to what God is gonna do."

- He's still in charge,he's still in control.

He's the God that says,

"You do this and don'tworry about it," you know.

"Sit back, relax, let metake care of my business."

"Okay, Lord."

- [Reporter] In the meantime,

the Forets who were CBN partners,

saw CBN helping out their devastated area.

- God bless you.

- [Reporter] Withbusiness at a standstill,

Morris and Ethel volunteered as well.

- [Morris] We redid aschool and all those kids,

they were so astounded they were in tears,

they were so happy for that performance.

It's exciting to see CBNcame and they stayed.

- [Reporter] After Katrina,

many of the other cleaning companies

in the area had been flooded out.

The Forets ran one of theonly ones left standing

and because of that,

they started getting more calls for jobs.

- "Maurice," he says,

"are you lookin' for more work?"

I said, "My friend, Ialways need more work."

He said, "I've got 20clinics in New Orleans,"

and he says, "you canhave as many as you want

"or you can have 'em all."

- That's how we got back on our feet.

- [Reporter] 15 years after Katrina,

the Forets are still in Louisiana

and are glad they remained.

Their business is runningstronger than ever.

They say it's because they trusted God

and they encourage othersto do the same by giving.

- Let it go, give your share.

Let the Holy Spirit lead you,

you know he'll tell you what to give.

- I love this story.

(laughs) God is so creative, isn't he?

What I also love aboutthis story is the fact that

you're able to see so clearlythat when there is a need,

Operation Blessing, CBNare there and they stay.

They stay and they get things done.

- You know I was at homeyesterday, the telephone rang

and on the phone was mygood friend, Pat Boone.

And he said, "Listen, Ihave a new music video

"that might help in this racial tension."

It was done after that horriblebeating of Rodney King,

you remember that?

And there were riots inL.A. as a result of that

and Pat wrote this song in 1981

after Rodney King came out ofthe press conference and said,

"Can't we get along?"

Well here is Stephanie Adlington singing,

"Can't We Get Along."

- What a beautiful song.

That thing oughta go viral,I mean it's just magnificent.

It's the answer to whatwe're seeing right now.

The great work, Pat Boone write the song,

"Can't We Get Along" years ago.

Let's get that thing out.

Pat Boone, "Can't We Get Along."

What a fabulous song.

All right, we got a few questions

real quick.- We do,

let's see what we can get in.

This is Jeff who said,

"I asked Jesus into myheart as a teenager.

"When I was 48, I wasbaptized by the Holy Spirit.

"I was wondering, is itnormal to have sin in my life?

"I ask for forgiveness andturn away from the sin,

"but I still feel guilty.

"Will Jesus reject me?"

- No, of course not.

John Wesley said, "There'snot a day that goes by

"that I don't bleed theblood of Jesus Christ,"

and he was a very holy man.

Look, we're all sinnersand God wants to forgive us

so having your, "Consciencecleansed from dead works

"that you may serve the living God,"

of course God will forgive you, okay?

- This is Peggy who says,

"In Matthew 4:7, Jesus says,

"'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'

"What does 'temptingthe Lord' mean exactly?"

- Well in this case it had todo with jumping off a building

and waiting for the angels to catch him.

It is doing some extreme thing

and I rely on God to pick me up.

(laughs) You know beforeI came for the Lord,

I mean I'd be playin'poker for high stakes,

I'd be praying--

- I know where this is going.

- Yeah, I'd feel a straightor get another heart

or something to get a flush.

I mean that's tempting the Lord,

let's not do that all right? (laughs)

- (laughs) Okay this is Pamela who says,

"My granddaughter's best friendneeds a heart transplant.

"She asked me to pray thatone would become available.

"I feel if I do I'mpraying for someone to die.

"How would you handle this?"

- You're not praying for somebody to die.

There are hearts available.

You know,

my friend, Dr. Warren,

used to call motorcycle riders, you know--

- Heart donors.- Organ donors.

- Organ donors, oh my.

- Because these kidsare killed all the time

in reckless driving,motorcycles and so forth.

But no, you're not asking somebody die,

but there are organs available

and the idea of a transplantis perfectly sound.

It's in the Lord's will thatthese organs would be used

to keep people alive.

Well Today's Power Minuteis from the Book of Job,

"You will surely forget your trouble,

"recalling it only as waters gone by.

"Life will be brighter than noonday

"and darkness will become like morning."

That's a good word.

Well tomorrow,

the civil rights fightyou're not hearing about.

That again is the battleto ban transgender athletes

from competing in girls sports.

For Terry and all of us, Pat Robertson,

see you tomorrow, bye bye.(dramatic music)
