SPONSORED BY CBN.

> COMING UP, THE TODAY SHOW

ANCHOR, LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER

SEEN HIM BEFORE.

NBC'S CRAIG MELVIN OPENS UP

ABOUT HIS LIFE OFF CAMERA.

> AND, THE PERFECT STORM

TAKING OUT OUR FOOD SUPPLY.

WAR, INFLATION AND BAD WEATHER

OF MILLIONS ON THE BRINK OF

STARVATION.

LET'S TALK ABOUT AFGHANISTAN.

90% OF THE POPULATION DO NOT

HAVE ENOUGH FOOD TO EAT.

WHAT IS BEING DONE TO AVERT

THE CRISIS.

1 MILLION CHILDREN UNDER THE

AGE OF FIVE COULD DIE FROM OUR

NUTRITION BY THE END OF THIS

YEAR.

ON TWO DAYS, 700 CLUB.

> WELCOME TO THE 70000 C

DESTROYING WOMEN'S SPORTS,

COMPROMISING SAFETY AND

PRIVACY.

THAT COULD BE THE OUTCOME OF

PRESIDENT BIDEN'S PUSH TO

REDEFINE THE FEDERAL LAW CALLED

TITLE IX.

50 YEARS AGO, THE LAW WAS

ESTABLISHED TO PROHIBIT SECS-

BASED DISCRIMINATION IN HIGHER

EDUCATION.

NOW THE ADMINISTRATION WANTS TO

EXPAND IT TO PROTECT GENDER

IDENTITY.

HEATHER SELLS HAS THE STORY.

Reporter: THE EDUCATION

DEPARTMENT HAS MADE CLEAR FOUR

MONTHS, IT PLANS TO CHANGE

TITLE E IXM A FEDERAL LAW

CREATED TO PROTECT GIRLS RIGHT

IN SCHOOL AND SPORTS TO ONE

THAT ALL ALSO PROTECTS GENDER

IDENTITY.

IT IS BASED WHOLLY ON SOMEONE'S

SUBJECTIVE GENDER IDENTITY. THE

WASHINGTON POST REPORTING THE

PROPOSED CHANGE AND LEGAL

ANALYST SARAH PARSHALL PERRY

SAYS IT'S NO SURPRISE GIVEN THE

ADMINISTRATION'S ARTISTE.

THE PROPOSAL IS A DRAMATIC

REDEFINITION OF THE

GROUNDBREAKING CIVIL RIGHTS LAW

DESIGNED TO LEVEL THE PLAYING

FIELD FOR R WO

IT WOULD EXPAND THE MEANING OF

SEX DISSEMINATION TO INCLUDE

SEXUAL ORIENTATION AND GENDER

IDENTITY.

IT WILL NOT ONLY ELIMINATE

ATHLETIC OPPORTUNITIES FOR

YOUNG GIRLS AND WOMEN, IT IS

GOING TO ELIMINATE THEIR SENSE

OF SAFETY, SECURITY AND

PRIVACY.

Reporter: CONSERVATIVE LEGAL

SCHOLARS LIKE PERRY AND

FEMINISTS AGREE IF MEN IDENTIFY

AS WOMEN CAN COMPETE AGAINST

WOMEN AND SHARE THEIR LOCKER

ROOMS AND BATHROOMS, IT WILL

ERASE WOMEN'S SPORTS ALONG WITH

THEY POINT TO NCAA SWIMMER LEAH

THOMAS, FORMERLY WILL L TH,

WHO BECAME A NATIONAL CHAMPION

IN HIS FIRST SEASON COMPETING

AGAINST WOMEN.

FORMER EDUCATION SECRETARY

BETSY DIVORCE IS ALSO CONCERNED

CALLING THE ADMINISTRATION OUT

OF LINE.

CONGRESS HAS NOT ACTED, WHICH

IS HOW OUR SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT

REQUIRES SUCH CHANGES TO BE

MADE.

SHE ARGUED RECENTLY.

THE PERSON SEES YOU.

Reporter: PRESIDENT BIDEN IS

FORMALLY COMMITTED TO ANYONE

WHO SAYS THEY ARE CHANGING

THEIR GENDER.

HE WANTS THEIR PARENTS ONBOARD.

THE PARENTS O OF CHEN,

AFFIRMING YOUR CHILD'S IDENTITY

IS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL

THINGS YOU CAN DO TO KEEP THEM

SAVED IN HEALTHY.

Reporter: IS WHY HEALTH AND

HUMAN SERVICES IS WORKING TO

REDEFINE SEX, MAKING IT ILLEGAL

FOR HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND

PARENTS POTENTIALLY TO REFUSE

WHAT IS KNOWN AS GENDER

AFFIRMING CARE.

PARENTS, AS WELL, WHO

REFUSED TO AFFIRM THOSE GENDER

IDENTITIES OF MINOR CHILDREN

COULD BE DEEMED TO BE UNSAFE

AND ABUSIVE PARENTS.

Reporter: IT WILL GO THROUGH

A PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD THAN

THEY CAN BECOME LEGALLY

BINDING, GORDON.

HOW LIKELY IS IT THIS TITLE

IX CHANGE WILL TAKE EFFECT?

Reporter: TO PUT IT IN

PERSPECTIVE, GORDON, THE BIDEN

ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCED ON DAY

ONE VIA EXECUTIVE ORDER THEY

WERE GOING TO LOOK AT ALL

REGULATIONS IN ALL DEPARTMENTS.

AND LOOK AT THEM THROUGH THE

LENS OF THE 2020 DECISION AND

ADD GENDER IDENTITY PROTECTION

IN.

THAT IS THE BACKDROP TO THIS.

IN TERMS OF TIMING RIGHT NOW,

WE ARE E EXPNG THESE PROPOSED

REGULATIONS TO COME OUT IN THE

NEXT MONTH.

THERE'S A 30 TO 60 DAY COMMENT

PERIOD.

THEN THE DEPARTMENT HAS TO LOOK

AT ALL COMMENTS.

POTENTIALLY THIS FALL WE COULD

BE SEEING THESE REGULATIONS PUT

INTO PLACE.

WE ARE, OF COURSE, ALSO

EXPECTING LEGAL CHALLENGES. IN

FACT, JUST YESTERDAY FOX NEWS

IS REPORTING 15 ATTORNEYS

GENERALS ARE SAYING THEY ARE

GOING TO FIGHT BACK IN REGARDS

TO THESE PROPOSED REGULATIONS.

YOU MENTIONED BOSS STOCK.

IS THIS ANOTHER CASE WHERE THE

SUPREME COURT IS CREATING

LEGISLATION BY CHANGING WHAT

THE WORD SEX MEANS IN

PARTICULAR?

AND THAT ONE, IT WAS ABOUT SEX

DISCRIMINATION AT THE

WORKPLACE.

ARE THEY JUST SAYING WE ARE

GOING TO TAKE THAT DECISION AND

MAKE IT FEDERAL LAW FOR TITLE

IX?

YES, INDEED, THE BIDEN

ADMINISTRATION HAS A DIFFERENT

VIEW OF BOSSDOC.

THEY ARE BROADLY INTERPRETING

IT.

THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WAS

NARROWLY A INTERPRETING IT. THE

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS SAYING,

LOOK, WE NEED TO REVIEW ALL

REGULATIONS IN LIGHT OF

BOSSDOC.

POTENTIALLY, WE ARE LOOKING AT

VERY WIDE SWEEPING CHANGES IN

EDUCATION, IN HEALTHCARE . I

THINK, IN SOME WAYS, WE HAVE

KNOWN THIS IS COMING BUT IN

SOME WAYS THE GENERAL PUBLIC IS

NOT AWARE OF WHAT IS COMING

DOWN THE PIKE. LET'S TALK A

COMING DOWN THE PIKE.

WHAT'S THE RISK TO PARENTS WHO

DON'T AFFIRM CHILDREN WHO SAY,

WELL, I BELIEVE I'M OF ANOTHER

SEX?

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THEM?

Reporter: THAT IS WHAT THE

15 ATTORNEYS GENERAL WERE

POINTING OUT SAYING, WE ARE

VERY CONCERNED ABOUT PARENTS'

RIGHTS AND CONCERNED PARENTS

AREN'T GOING TO HAVE A SAY WHEN

IT COMES THINGS LIKE GENDER

ISSUES.

WE ARE ALREADY SEEING THIS PLAY

OUT IN A NUMBER OF SCHOOLS

WEATHER IS COUNSELING TAKING

PLACE AROUND GENDER ISSUES AND

PARENTS ARE BEING KEPT OUT OF

THE LOOP.

THAT'S A BIG CONCERN.

THERE'S ALSO A GROWING

BIPARTISAN PARENTS MOVEMENT IN

THIS COUNTRY.

PARENTS ARE MORE AWARE OF WHAT

IS GOING ON IN EDUCATION THAN

THEY HAVE EVER BEEN.

THERE ARE THESE PUBLIC COMMENT

PERIOD THAT WILL BE COMING UP

WHERE PEOPLE CAN RESPOND AND

WHERE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION

WILL BE GAUGING THE POLITICAL

WINS, IF YOU WILL.

THERE'S ALSO SCOREBOARD

ELECTIONS COMING UP.

THERE'S A LOT GOING FORWARD.

PUBLIC DEBATE AROUND THIS OF

ISSUE.

LET'S TALK ABOUT ONE OF THE

MAIN AREAS FOR PUBLIC DEBATE,

WHICH IS HHS.

IT'S A SIMILAR RULE MANDATING

HEALTHCARE COVERAGE AND I

ASSUME HEALTHCARE TREATMENT FOR

TRANSGENDER SERVICES.

WHAT IMPACT WILL THAT HAVE ON

EMPLOYERS, HOSPITALS, AND

ESPECIALLY PARENTS?

Reporter: THIS IS REALLY

STUNNING.

WHAT THE POTENTIAL

RAMIFICATIONS COULD BE.

THE CATHOLIC NEWS SERVICE IS

REPORTING THE CATHOLIC BENEFITS

ASSOCIATION, WHICH OVERSEES OR

IS AN ASSOCIATION FOR CATHOLIC

EMPLOYERS, HAS RECEIVED

DOCUMENTS THAT INDICATE THERE

ARE GOING G TOMANDATES IN

TERMS OF SURGICAL ABORTION, IN

TERMS OF TRANSGENDER HORMONES,

TRANSGENDER SURGERY, THAT THEY

ARE GOING TO REQUIRE ALL

HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO PROVIDE

THESE TYPES OF SERVICES.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A NO GO FOR

CATHOLIC HOSPITALS. THEY ARE

NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO ABIDE

BY THIS.

THEY HAVE ONE SIXTH OF ALL OF

THE HOSPITAL BEDS IN THE

COUNTRY.

THE POTENTIAL RAMIFICATIONS OF

SOME OF THESE HHS REGULATIONS

THAT WE THINK ARE GOING TO BE

COMING OUT NEXT MONTH ARE

REALLY SIGNIFICANT AND COULD

AFFECT, OF COURSE, MORE THAN

CATHOLIC HOSPITALS.

COULD AFFECT THE FAITH-BASED

EMPLOYERS OF ALL KINDS.

IT IS NOT LOOKING LIKEKE T'S

GOING TO BE RELIGIOUS

EXEMPTIONS.

POTENTIALLY SOME REALLY

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES COMING

FORWARD.

HEATHER, THANK YOU FOR THE

INSIGHTS.

THIS IS DEFINITELY TROUBLED

WATERS.

JUST LOOK AT THAT STATISTIC.

ONE SIXTH OF ALL HOSPITAL BEDS

ARE DONE BY CATHOLIC CHARITIES.

HOSPITALS WERE ESSENTIALLY

CREATED BY CHRISTIANS.

THIS IS OUR HERITAGE.

YOU CAN LOOK AT THE MEDICAL

HISTORY OF MISSION WORK.

YOU LOOK AT THE MEDICAL HISTORY

OF EUROPE AND AMERICA.

THESE WERE ALL FOUNDED

INITIALLY ON CHRISTIAN PRECEPTS.

LET'S HEAL THE SICK, HELP THE

POOR, DO GOOD TO OTHER PEOPLE.

NOW THAT WE ARE BECOMING

INCREASINGLY SECULARIZED, AND

WHEN YOU HAVE AN ADMINISTRATION

THAT SEES WEDGE ISSUES, YOU

WILL SEE THOSE RELIGIOUS RIGHTS

TRAMPLED.

I HOPE SOME COMMON SENSE COMES

INTO CONGRESS AND TO THE

ADMINISTRATION SAYING, WHY ARE

YOU TRYING TO DIVIDE US EVEN

MORE?

IF A CATHOLIC HOSPITAL WANTS TO

PROVIDE HOSPITAL SERVICES, THEY

HAVE A PERFECT RIGHT TO.

IF A PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL

WANTS TO PROVIDE HOSPITAL

SERVICES, THEY HAVE A PERFECT

RIGHT TO AND YOU CAN'T COME IN

AND MANDATE THINGS THAT ARE

AGAINST THE RELIGIOUS

CONSCIENCE.

LETS US ESTABLISH FREEDOM OF

CONSCIENCE, FREEDOM OF BELIEF,

FREDOM OF RELIGION AS A

BULWARK OF AMERICAN SOCIETY AND

STOP TRYING TO IMPOSE YOUR VIEW

ON PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST TRYING

TO DO GOOD.

> A POLITICAL CRISIS LIVING

IN ISRAEL AFTER THE GOVERNING

COALITION LOST A KEY MEMBER.

JOHN JESSUP HAS MORE ON THAT

STORY FROM HER CBN NEWS BUREAU

IN WASHINGTON.

Reporter: A M MEMR

ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER THE TELE

BENNETT COALITION QUIT CLAIMING

ISRAEL IS LOSING ITS JEWISH

IDENTITY UNDER THE CURRENT

GOVERNMENT.

THE DEPARTURE RAISES THE

POSSIBILITY OF NEW ELECTIONS

LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER THE

GOVERNMENT TOOK OFFICE.

WHILE BENNETT REMAINS IN POWER

INSTEAD OF A 61-59 MAJORITY, HE

NEVER RECEIVES 6060. THAT WILL

MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE

GOVERNMENT TO FUNCTION OR PASS

LEGISLATION.

OPPOSITION LEADER AND FORMER

PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU WELCOMED THE DECISION.

TURNING TO THE CRISIS IN

EUROPE.

UKRAINE'S PRESESIDT LLING THE

UNITED NATIONS TO BOOT RUSSIA

OFF THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL FOR

ATROCITIES AGAINST CIVILIANS.

THIS, AS THE WORLD PREPARES

SANCTIONS AGAINST RUSSIA.

THE UNITED STATES AND ARMS TO

UKRAINE.

Reporter: SPEAKING TO THE

RESEARCHER TO COUNSEL TO THE

PRESIDENCY CALLED ON THE BODY

TO HOLD RUSSIA ACCOUNTABLE FOR

WAR CRIMES AS HE LAID OUT THE

ATROCITIES COMMITTED BY RUSSIAN

FORCES IN THE TOWN OF BUCHA.

THEY WERE KILLED IN THEIR

APARTMENTS, HOUSES, APARTMENTS.

CIVILIANS WERE CRUSHED BY TANKS

BY SITTING IN CARS.

Reporter: HE ALSO URGED

REFORM AT THE U.N. BY KICKING

RUSSIA OUT OF THE SECURITY

COUNCIL AND REMOVING ITS VETO

POWER.

SPECULATORS AND GENTLEMEN, YOU

READY TO CLOSE THE U.N.? DO YOU

THINK THE TIME OF INTERNATIONAL

LAW IS GONE?

IF YOUR ANSWER IS NO YOU NEED

TO ACT IMMEDIATELY.

Reporter: WHILE THE RUSSIANS

ARE CALLING THE IMAGES FAKE,

TESTIMONIES OF SURVIVORS ARE

COMING OUT EVERY DAY.

THE VICTIMS INCLUDE INNOCENT

MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN.

SOME, APPARENTLY TIED UP,

TORTURED AND SHOT AT CLOSE

RANGE.

THIS MAN SAYS MEN YOUNGER THAN

50 WERE LINED UP AND SHOT ON

THE SPOT.

HE SURVIVED BECAUSE HE IS 53.

WHAT WE SEE IN BUCHA IS NOT

THE RANDOM ACT OF A ROGUE UNIT.

IT'S A DELIBERATE CAMPAIGN TO

KILL, TO TORTURE, TO RAPE, TO

COMMIT ATROCITIES.

Reporter: PRESIDENT BIDEN

AND EUROPEAN LEADER SET TO

ANNOUNCE MORE SANCTIONS AGAINST

RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS

AND FAMILY MEMBERS.

THE EUROPEAN UNION REPORTEDLY

PROPOSING SANCTIONS DIRECTLY

AGAINST VLADIMIR PUTIN'S TWO

DAUGHTERS.

THE U.S. IS SENDING AN

ADDITIONAL $100 MILLION IN

SECURITY ASSISTANCE TO UKRAINE.

THAT'S HELPING MILITARY SECURE

MORE JAVELIN ANTI-ARMOR

SYSTEMS.

MEANWHILE, RUSSIAN FORCES

DEPLOYED TO THE SOUTH AND EAST.

HUMAN RIGHTS GROUPS SAY THE

SITUATION IN MARIUPOL IS

DESPERATE AND THE ATROCITIES

ARE LIKELY MUCH WORSE.

DETAILS.

Reporter: IT IS MEALTIME IN

THE NATION OF YEMEN.

HE IS AN EATING SO HIS CHILDREREN

HAVE ENOUGH FOOD.

HE SAYS HE AND HIS FAMILY LIVE

LIKE ANTS OR FISH. WE EAT WHAT

WE CAN FIND.

EXPERTS WARN IN THE MONTHS AHEAD

FOOD IS GOING TO BE HARDER TO

FIND IN MANY MORE NATIONS.

A PERFECT STORM OF SEVERAL

PROBLEMS IS DECIMATING THE

WORLD FOOD SUPPLY. IT HAS BEEN

CALLED THE BIGGEST FOOD CRISIS

SINCE WORLD WAR II.

AN ESTIMATED 285 MILLION PEOPLE

FACE STARVATION.

THE HEAD OF THE WORLD FOOD

PROGRAM, FORMER SUCCULENT THE

GOVERNOR, DAVID BEASLEY, SAYS

THE WORLD FOOD SUPPLY ALREREAD

FACED A CATASTROPHE BEFORE THE

WAR IN UKRAINE.

WE'RE SO SHORT OF FUNDS

ALREADY, AND NOW WITH UKRAINE,

WE'VE GOT 50% RATIONS FOR

PEOPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, IN YEMEN,

I'VE JUST CUT 50% RATIONS FOR

EIGHT MILLION PEOPLE.

NIGER, 50% RATIONS, CHAD, 50%

RATIONS.

AND 50% DON'T HAVE ANYTHING,

THOSE WHO ARE IN EXTREME NEED.

Reporter: IN THE U.S.,

AMERICANS HAVE SEEN FOOD COSTS

RISE 10 PERCENT OVER LAST YEAR,

THE STEEPEST INCREASE IN 40

YEARS, WHICH EXPERTS SAY WILL

LEAD TO AN INCREASE IN

MALNUTRITION AMONG AMERICA'S

POOR.

EXPERTS PREDICT IT WILL LEAD TO

AN INCREASE IN MALNUTRITION N

AMONG AMERICA'S POOR.

IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD,

HOWEVER, IT HAS BECOME A MATTER

OF LIFE AND DEATH.

RUSSIA AND UKRAINE TOGETHER

PRODUCE ALMOST 1/3 OF THE WORLD

WHEAT.

UKRAINIAN FARMERS HAVE BEEN

SIDELINED BY THE WAR.

RUSSIA HAS BEEN BANNED EXPORTS.

THEY'VE GOT TO BE PLANTING

AGAIN AND HARVESTING AGAIN.

IF THEY DON'T, YOU'RE GOING TO

HAVE A GLOBAL SUPPLY PROBLEM.

Reporter: THE WAR IN UKRAINE

IS ONLY THE LATEST OF MANY

PROBLEMS TO HIT THE WORLD FOOD

SUPPLY.

FROM SOARING INFLATION AND FUEL

COSTS.

FERTILIZER PRICES ARE NOW 40%

HIGHER THAN A MONTH AGO BEFORE

THE INVASION OF UKRAINE.

ALONG WITH HIGH FUEL PRICES IT

MAKES IT TOO EXPENSIVE FOR SOME

FARMERS TO PLANT CROPS THIS

YEAR.

WE'VE NEVER SEEN THESE TYPES

OF INCREASES IN FERTILIZER.

YOU'RE TALKING 300% TO 400%

INCREASES IN A 14 MONTH PERIOD.

Reporter: ADD TO THAT A

DROUGHT THAT DAMAGE THE U.S.

WINTER WHEAT HARVEST.

AND CHINA, SEVERE FLOODING LATE

LAST YEAR WRECKED THE WHEAT

HARVEST AND HAS THE COMMUNIST

GOVERNMENT TRYING TO BUY UP AS

MUCH OF THE WORLD SUPPLY AS

POSSIBLE.

OTHER NATIONS.

AFGHANISTAN . 98% OF THE

POPULATION DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH

FOOD TO EAT.

98%.

1 MILLION CHILDREN UNDER THE

AGE OF FIVE COULD DIE FROM AN

ATTRITION BY THE END OF THIS

YEARAR.

IN YEMEN, 8 MILLION PEOPLE ARE

Reporter: EVEN AFRICA'S

WEALTHIEST NATION FACES A FOOD

CISIS, ACCORDING TO NIGERIAN

AGRI-INVESTOR IMAL SILVA, WHO

TOLD US A MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS

ARE FACING MALNUTRITION.

THOSE THAT ARE MOST AFFECTED

ARE THE MAJORITY IN THE LOWER

AND MIDDLE CLASS OF SOCIETY.

THOSE THAT WERE LIVING BELOW A

PARTICULAR LEVEL OF INCOME

WOULD FEEL THE PINCH AND THAT'S

QUITE A LARGE MAJORIT.

Reporter: BEASELEY WARNED

THE WORLD FOOD CRISIS COULD

SPIRAL INTO A POLITICAL CRISIS.

YOU GOT CATASTROPHE COMING

TO CATASTROPHE.

DON'T BE SURPRISED IF YOU SEE

DESTABILIZATION IN SEVERAL

NATIONS OVER THE NEXT SIX TO

NINE MONTHS.

THERE'S A NEW TERM IN

NONPROFITS CALLED FOOD AND

SECURITY.

THAT'S ANOTHER TERM FOR HUNGER.

WE ARE GETTING INTO A VERY OLD-

FASHIONED WORD, STARVATION.

YOU JUST DON'T HAVE ANY FOOD.

YOU HAVE NO ABILITY TO GET

FOOD.

WHERE IS THAT GOING TO HIT?

THAT'S PRIMARILY GOING TO HIT

NATIONS YOU JUST HEARD ABOUT AN

AFRICA -- NICE YEAR, NIGERIA.

FOOD INSECURITY WILL GET TO A

LEVEL THEY LITERALLY DO NOT HAVE

ENOUGH FOOD TO FEED THEIR OWN

POPULATION.

WHY?

IT'S THE PERFECT STORM.

UKRAINE IS ONE OF THE LARGEST

PRODUCERS OF RED WHEAT.

YOU TAKE THAT SOURCE OF SUPPLY

OFF THE TABLE, THEN YOU ADD

INTO IT TRANSPORTATION ISSUES

COMING OUT OF CHINA.

THE WHOLE PORT OF SHANGHAI IS

SHUTDOWN RIGHT NOW.

YOU HAVE A DROUGHT IN OUR OWN

COUNTRY IN THE MIDWEST, WHICH

IS AFFECTING THE WHEAT HARVESTSTST

RIGHT HERE AT HOME.

THEN YOU HAVE SKYROCKETING

FERTILIZER PRICES BECAUSE FUEL

COSTS ARE GOING THROUGH THE

ROOF.

CAN YOU AFFORD TO EVEN PLANT

YOUR CROP AND PROPERLY

FERTILIZE IT?

ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE COMING

TOGETHER.

LEFT US PRAY TO GOD. THAT IS

WHAT WE NEED RIGHT NOW TO SAY,

WE NEED YOU.

PLEASE AVERT THIS CATASTROPHE.

WE CAN SEE IT COMING.

HOW DO WE GET FOOD PRODUCTION

GOING IN THESE NATIONS IN

AFRICA?

HOW CAN WE PROVIDE IRRIGATION?

THAT IS THE NUMBER ONE THING

THEY NEED.

HOW CAN WE BREAK THE LOGJAM SO

FERTILIZER PRICES COME DOWN.

THAT IS SOMETHING CONGRESS

DEFINITELY CAN DO RIGHT HERE IN

THE UNITED STATES TO GET OUR

OWN FARMERS PLANTING AGAIN.

ALL OF THESE THINGS CAN HAPPEN.

WE HAVE TO HAVE THE FORESIGHT

TO BRING IT TO BEAR.

WE NEED THE UNITY TO BRING IT

TO BEAR.

WHAT A GREAT CAUSE.

LET'S COME TOGETHER SO THAT NO

ONE HAS TO START OF IN THE

COMING YEAR.

INTERVIEWED CRAIG MELVIN.

STAY TUNED TO SEE A SIDE OF THE

NBC ANCHOR YOU WON'T SEE

ANYWHERE ELSE.

THAT'S RIGHT AFTER THIS.

> WE HAVE SEEN NBC ANCHOR

CRAIG MELVIN ON THE TRANSSEXUAL,

OLYMPIC GAMES, SUPER BOWL, IF

YOU PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATIONS

IN PRETTY MUCH EVERY MAJOR

EVENT THAT HAS CROSSED THE

NEWSWIRES.

ALONG THE WAY, CRAIG HAS MADE

HEADLINES HIMSELF.

Reporter: CRAIG MELVIN IS

THE COHOST OF THE TRANSIT SHOW

AND WILL BE FRONT AND CENTER AS

THE ONLY NETWORK ANCHOR TO

COVER THE ENTIRE DURATION OF

THE OLYMPIC GAMES.

AS A DEVOTED HUSBAND, FATHER

AND MAN OF FAITH, HE

UNDERSTANDS THE IMPORTANCE OF

TURNING TO GOD FOR HELP.

HE GARNERED ATTENTION WHEN HE

ASKED TO PRAY FOR OUR NATION ON

LIVE TV.

30 SECONDS FOR FOLKS WHO

AREN'T ABLE TO GET TO CHURCH

YESTERDAY.

I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS ON THE

AIR.

CAN YOU LEAD US IN PRAYER FOR

30 SECONDS.

YES, I CAN.

OUR FATHER AND OUR GOD, WE BOW

OUR HEADS TO YOU.

Reporter: HAD CRAIG MELVIN

JOINS US VIA SKYPE.

WELCOME TO THE SHOW.

IT IS GREAT TO HAVE YOU ON

TODAY.

GOOD TO BE WITH YOU.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

Reporter: WE JUST SAW A

SNIPPET OF YOUR VIRAL MOMENT

WITH BISHOP T.D.

JAKES.

WALK US THROUGH WHAT HAPPENED.

THAT WAS REALLY EARLY ON IN

THE PANDEMIC WHEN WE JUST

DIDN'T KNOW A WHOLE LOT ABOUT

THE VIRUS AND WE DIDN'T KNOW A

WHOLE LOT ABOUT WHERE ALL OF IT

WAS HEADED AND PEOPLE WERE

SCARED.

MYSELF INCLUDED.

AND, YOU KNOW, I'M ONE OF THOSE

GUYS WHEN I DON'T KNOW

SOMETHING, I TURN TO GOD.

IN THAT MOMENT, I FELT LIKE A

LOT OF FOLKS JUST DIDN'T KNOW A

LOT, AND I FELT T T LICOULD

USE A MOMENT WITH GOD.

IT WAS NOT SOMETHING I HAD

OBVIOUSLY TALKED TO A PRODUCER

OR NEWS MANAGER ABOUT AHEAD OF

TIME.

I WAS MOVED BY THE SPIRIT.

FORTUNATELY FOR ME, PASTOR

JAKE'S DOES A LOT OF TELEVISION.

WHEN I GAVE HIM 30 SECONDS FOR

A PRAYER, HE WASAS AE KEEP

IT TO PRETTY CLOSOSTO 30

SECONDS.

THAT WAS A WISE THING TO DO.

HE HAS SUCH A STRONG PRESENCE.

HE COMMANDS THE PRESENCE OF

PEOPLE AS THEY COME BEFORE THE

LORD.

IT WAS GREAT.

WHAT ARE OTHER WAYS YOU COVER A

NEWS EVENT?

YOU SAY YOU ARE NOT ALWAYS IN A A A

POSITION TO DO THAT.

YEARS AGO THERE WERE STORIES

INVOLVING FAITH.

WE DON'T REALLY COVER FAITH A

GREAT DEAL.

OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, WE

HAVE DONE THAT.

ACT, I AM WORKING ON ONE

NOW.

I LOVE STORIES OF REDEMPTION

AND FORGIVENESS AND WE ARE

WORKING ON A STORY NOW ABOUT A

FELLOW WHO WAS ONCE THE MAYOR

OF DETROIT, WHO FELL ON HARD

TIMES AND WAS INDICTED AND

SPENT A NUMBER OF YEARS IN

FEDERAL PRISON INVOLVING

PRISON.

HE FOUND THE LORD.

NOW, THE ONE TIME HUCKSTER IS A

MAN OF GREAT FAITH AND HE

PREACHES THE GOSPEL.

I LOVE STORIES LIKE THATAT.

THEY SPEAK TO ME, AND I THINK

THEY SPEAK TO A LOT OF FOLKS.

WE ARE MAKING MORE THE

CONCERTED EFFORT FOR THAT.

YOU HAVE LOST AN OLDER

BROTHER TO CANCER.

YOU LOST A NIECE TO PEDIATRIC

CANCER.

THESE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS

THAT SOMETIMES CAUSE PEOPLE'S

FAITH TO FALTER.

YOUR FAITH SUSTAINED YOU DURING

THOSE TRAGEDIES.

HOW?

THEY DID.

FIRST OF ALL, MY OLDER BROTHER

WE LOST TO COLON CANCER AT 43.

HE WAS DIAGNOSED AT 39.

WE LOST HIM AT 3343.

HE WAS A MINISTER.

WE GREW UP W WITH H.

I AM NOT ONE OF THESE PEOPLE

THAT ONLY TURNS TO GOD WHEN

THINGS ARE AT THEIR WORST.

I LIKE TO THANK HIM EVERY

MORNING.

I PRAY A PRAYER OF GRATITUDE TO

START THE DAY.

BUT, THOSE DARK MOMENTS, AND

THEY WERE QUITE DARK, SOMETIMES

THERE'S NO ONE ELSE TO TALK TO.

NO ONE ELSE TO POUR OUR HEART

AND SOUL OUT TO.

NO ONE ELSE TO ASK FOR

GUIDANCE.

WHEN MY NEICEKNEES WAS

DIAGNOSED WITH A RARE FORM OF

SARCOMA, SHE WAS DEAD SIX

MONTHS LATER.

SHE DIED.

THAT, AND MY BROTHER'S ILLNESS.

IT WAS SEVERAL YEARS. HE

SUFFERED FOR A WHILE WITH COLON

CANCER.

I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO LEAN ON

MY FAITH.

LEE NOT ON MY OWN

UNDERSTANDING, RIGHT?

EXACTLY.

GET UP AND CLIMB TO THE ROCK

THAT IS HIGHER T THAU ARE

PERKY YOU PUBLISHED A BOOK ON

SOVEREIGN HOOD.

TELL US ABOUT THE THINGS YOU

LEARN FROM, "POPS."

GOING BACK TO STORIES OF

REDEMPTION.

I'M ALWAYS DRAWN TO THOSE TYPES

OF STORIES.

THERE'S NO STORY OF REDEMPTION

THAT HITS CLOSER TO HOME TO ME

THAN MY FATHER'S STORY.

MY FATHER R WAFUNCTIONAL

ALCOHOLIC FOR DECADES IN SOUTH

ROLINA.

HE WAS NOT PHYSICALLY ABSENT.

HE WAS THERE PHYSICALLY.

HE WASN'T THERE EMOTIONALLY,

CERTAINLY NOT SPIRITUALLY.

THIS IS HOW I GREW UP.

THANK GOD FOR MY MOTHER WHO HAD

TO PLAY THE ROLE OF MOTHER,

FATHER. MY DAD WORKED AT THE

POST OFFICE AND HE WAS A MAIL

CLERK AND RETIRED SEVERAL YEARS

AGO.

AS I GOT OLDER, I STARTED TO

ACHIEVE A MONIKER OF WORLDLY

SUCCESS.

I FOUND MYSELF GROWING ANGRY AT

MY DAD.

THE OLDER I GOT, I WAS

RESENTFUL, AND IT WASN'T GOOD.

I HAD TO, FOR MY OWN SAKE, I

HAD TO GET TO A POINT WHERE I

FOR GAVE HIM.

AND I DID.

THAT HAPPENED SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

HE GOT INTO A DRUNK DRIVING

ACCIDENT SOME YEARS AGO. WE

DECIDED TO USE THAT AS AN

OPPORTUNITY TO TRY TO STATE AN

INTERVENTION.

IT WORKED.

WE PUT HIM IN AN INPATIENT

MYSTERIES OF THE ANOINTED.

WELCOME BACK TO THE 700

CLUB, MY DEAR FRIEND, BENNY

HINN.

IT IS GREAT TO HAVE YOU WITH

US.

THANK YOU, AND YOU ARE MY

DEAR FRIENDS.

THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL

PRIVILEGE.

YOU WENT THROUGH A VERY

DIFFICULT TIME FOR THRHREERS

IN YPERSONAL LIFE.

YOU DESCRIBED SOME OF IT IN

YOUR NEW BOOK, MYSTERIES OF THE

ANOINTING. TELL US WHAT

HAPPENED IN THOSE THREE YEARS.

IT WAS 2010, 2011, AND 2012

WHEN I WENT THROUGH THAT.

I CONTINUED MINISTERING.

WHAT WAS AMAZING TO ME WAS MY

PERSONAL LIFE WAS STRUGGLING,

BUT THE ANOINTING IN THE

MEETINGS DID NOT WE CAN OR

DIMINISH.

I WOULD D GOE WONDERING WHY

GOD WOULD USE ME IN THOSE

MEETINGS THAT I HAD DURING

THOSE THREE YEARS.

YET, MY OWN LIFE, SPIRITUALLY,

WAS STRUGGLING.

I CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT

THE ANOINTING ON MY OFFICE HAD

NOTHING TO DO WITH MY LIFE.

AND SO, I BEGAN A SEARCH

THROUGH THE SCRIPTURES, AND I

WANTED TO KNOW EVERYTHING GOD

SAID ABOUT THE ANOINTING.

TO MY AMAZEMENT, I DISCOVERED

THAT EVERYONE OF US AS

BELIEVERS HAS AN ANOINTING

WITHIN THAT WE RECEIVED AT

SALVATION THAT HAS NOTHING TO

DO WITH THE ANOINTING THAT

COMES UPON US WHEN GOD USES US.

TO MY SHOCK, I NEVER REALLY

LOOKED INTO IT LIKE THAT.

TO MY SHOCK, I DISCOVERED IT'S

POSSIBLE FOR SOMEONE TO BE USED

OF GOD AND HAVE A DEMON LIKE

SAUL.

IT'S POSSIBLE TO BE ANOINTED

FOR A MINISTRY AND INVOLVED IN

WITCHCRAFT LIKE -- I BEGAN

LOOKING AT WHAT DOES THEHE B

REALLY SAY ABOUT THAT?

AGAIN, TO MY AMAZEMENT, I FOUND

THREE MAIN RIVERS OF WHAT I

CALL OF THE ANOINTING.

ONE, FOR YOUR PERSONAL WALK IN

YOUR LIFE.

SECOND, ONE THAT COMES UPON YOU

, NOT IN YOU BUT UPON YOU, WHEN

GOD USES YOU.

IT LIFTS WHEN GOD IS DONE USING

YOU.

THREE, AN ANOINTING THAT IS

ONLY USED, RARELY REALLY, UPON

NATIONS RATHER THAN PEOPLE.

THE ANOINTNTIN FIRST JOHN 227

WAS REREAL AING AMAZING, EYE-

OPENING EXPERIENCE WHEN I BEGAN

STUDYING IT.

I SAW SIMILAR SCRIPTURES THAT

TALK ABOUT THE ANOINTING WITHIN.

IN 1 JOHN 2:27 THE TALKS ABOUT

THE ANOINTING THAT ABIDES IN

YOU RATHER THAN THE ANOINTING

THAT COMES AND GOES ON YOU, YOU

KNOW.

SO, AS I BEGAN LOOKING AT THAT

VERSE, IT KIND OF EXPANDED TO

MORE A A AND

JOHN WAS WRITING TO THE CHURCH

AT THAT TIME BECAUSE THERE WAS

A HERESY GOING AROUND WHERE

PEOPLE WERE BELIEVING JESUS WAS

NOT THE SON OF GOD AND DID NOT

COME IN THE FLESH.

JOHN WRITES AND SAYS THE

ANOINTING THAT ABIDES IN YOU

WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH. YOU

WILL KNOW THE TRUTH BY IT.

YOU DON'T NEED ANYONE TO TEACH

YOU BUT THAT ANOINTING IN YOU

TEACHES YOU ALL THINGS.

WELL, HE DIDN'T MEAN THE

ANOINTING WITHIN US WILL TEACH

US EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BIBLE.

HE WAS SIMPLY SAYING THE

ANOINTING IN YOUR HEART WILL

REVEAL TO YOU WHO JESUS IS IN

YOUR LIFE.

THAT HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

HE DID COME IN THE FLESH.

AS YOU LOOK AT THE SCRIPTURES,

YOU KNOW, IT TALKS A LOT ABOUT

THE ANOINTING WITHIN YOU, LIKE,

GOD IS ABLE TO MOVE

EXCEEDINGLY, ABOVE ALL WE ASK

OR THINK ACCORDING TO THE PART

THAT RESIDES IN US.

THAT PART THAT RESIDES ENOUGH,

VERY FEW PEOPLE TALK ABOUT.

WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT THE

ANOINTING, THEY ARE THINKING

MINISTRY.

THEY ARE THINKING SOMEONE

ANOINTED TO PREACH, ANOINTED TO

PRAY FOR THE SICK AND SO ON.

WELL, THE MOST IMPORTANT

ANOINTING IS THE ONE IN

PEOPLE'S LIVES.

IT HAS TO BE NOURISHED. THE WAY

TO KNOW IT IS THERE, FOR

EXAMPLE, I HAVE BEEN MINISTERING

THE GOSPEL NOW, GOODNESS, 48

SOMETHING YEARS.

I HAVE HAD THE ANOINTING COME

UPON ME MANY, MANY, MANY TIMES.

IN DIFFERENT MEETINGS.

WHEN I AM DONE, IT LIFTS.

IT AFFECTED MY PHYSICAL BODY.

NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT ELSE

DOES THAT ANOINTING UPON ME,

THAT COME UPON ME AND LIFTED

WHEN I WAS IN MINISTRY

AFFECTED.

THE ONE IN YOU, HOW DO YOU KNOW

IT'S THERE?

IT'S EASY TO TELL WHEN IT IS ON

YOU BECAUSE YOU CAN FEEL IT.

YOU CAN SENSE IT ON YOU.

HOW DO NO KNOW THE ANOINTING IS

THERE THAT YOU CAN FEEL IT.

THREE THINGS.

NUMBER ONE, THAT ANOINTING CAME

IN WHEN PEOPLE WERE SASAVE

WHEN YOU AND I WERE BORN AGAIN,

THREE THINGS HAPPENED.

NUMBER ONE, WE BECAME HUNGRY

FOR THE LORD.

HUNGER IS THE SIGN OF LIFE.

IN THE SPIRIT AND IN THE

NATURAL.

NUMBER TWO, EVERYTHING IN US

KNOWS I'M SAVED, I BELONG TO

JESUS.

IT IS CALLED FAITH.

WHAT BROUGHT THAT?

WHAT BRINGS THAT FAITH THAT

TELLS ME IN MY HEART I'M BORN

AGAIN?

I DON'T HAVE TO READ A BOOK TO

KNOW THAT.

I DON'T HAVE TO WATCH A TV

PROGRAM TO BE CONVINCED.

NO ANGEL COMES AND SAYS, YOU

ARE SAVED NOW.

I JUST KNOW IT BY THE SPIRIT.

IT'S A WITNESS.

BY THE ANOINTING.

THIRDLY, I BEGAN TO LOVE JESUS

HAVING NOT SEEN HIM. THINK

ABOUT THIS.

THIS IS AMAZING.

2000 YEARS AGO, THOUSANDS SAW

THE LORD AND DID NOT LOVE HIM.

TODAY, WE LOVE HIM HAVING NOT

SEEN HIM.

SO, WHAT BRINGS THAT HUNGER?

WHAT CAUSES IT TO GROW?

WHAT CAUSES FAITH TO GROW?

WHAT CAUSES LOVE TO GROW IN N US

THE ANOINTING.

WHICH ONE?

WITHIN.

I'VE GOT TO ASK THIS QUESTION

. WE'VE JUST GOT THREE MINUTES

LEFT.

I WANT TO FOCUS IN ON THIS

QUESTION THAT READING YOUR

BOOK, LET'S FOCUS ON CHAPTER

13.

YOU TALK ABOUT ONE OF THE KEYS

TO THE ANOINTING IS MINISTERING

TO THE LORD.

THAT HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT

HAS ALWAYS BEEN A PUZZLE.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO MINISTER

TO THE LORD?

AND THAT IS WHAT KEEPS THE

ANOINTING WITHIN A LIFE.

I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE ONE

UPON YOU, THE ONE IN YOU. .

MINISTERING TO THE LORD MEANS

LIKE SAMUEL IN 1 SAMUEL,

CHAPTER 3, MINISTER TO THE LORD

FOR THE LORD.

YOU CANNOT MINISTER FOR THE

LORD UNTIL YOU MINISTER TO THE

LORD.

HE MINISTER TO HIM AND CHANGED

THE WHOLE NATION OF ISRAEL WHEN

HE WAS YOUNG.

THINK ABOUT IN ACTS 13, THEY

WERE MINISTERING TO THE LORD SO

HE WAS CALLED AS HE WAS

MINISTERING TO THE LORD.

THE LORD DID NOT CALL HIM WHEN

HE WAS ON THE ROAD TO DAMASCUS.

HE CALLED HIM WHEN HE WAS

MINISTERING TO HIM.

MINISTERING TO THE LORD'S

WORSHIP.

WHEN WE WORSHIP HIM, WHEN WE

ADORE HIM, WHEN WE SPEND TIME

WITH HIM, WHEN, LITERALLY, WE

SURRENDER COMPLETELY TO HIM, WE

MINISTER TO HIM.

MINISTRY TO THE LORD IS WHAT

HAPPENED WITH ME, DEAR GORDON,

BACK IN THE 70s.

I SPENT HOURS AND HOURS

WORSHIPING THE LORD.

EVEN DURING THE CRUSADES FROM

2:00 PM, I WAS WORSHIPING. THE

WHOLE TIME I WAS WORSHIPING.G.

NOT REALIZING THE POWER THAT IS

IN MINISTERING TO THE LORD.

MINISTERING TO THE LORD

LITERALLY MOVES HIM TO GIVE

HIMSELF TO US.

IT SAYS SO IN EPHESIANS.

THAT IS WHAT NOURISHES THAT

HUNGER, NOURISHES THAT FAITH,

NOURISHES THAT LOVE.

THE ANOINTING UPON SOMEONE HAS

NOTHING TO DO USES THROUGH THEM

TO TOUCH PEOPLE.

ALL RIGHT.

I'VE GOT TO PROMOTE THE BOOK.

THERE'S CHAPTERS YOU HAVEN'T

EVEN TOUCHED.

THE BOOK IS "MYSTERIES OF THE

ANOINTING" AND AVAILABLE

WHEREVER BOOKS ARE SOLD.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING

WITH US.

PLEASURE.

THANK YOU.

NOT BY MIGHT NOR POWER BUT

BY MY SPIRIT SAYS THE LORD OF

HOST. GOD BLESS YOU.
