CRIMINAL EFFORTS TO OVERTURN

THE 2020 ELECTION, THAT IS WHAT

FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP IS

FACING ALONG WITH SIX UNNAMED

CO-CONSPIRATORS.

TRIAL MAINTAINS THE CHARGES

ARE POLITICALLY MOTIVATED AND

SOME AGREE BUT NOT ALL.

ABIGAIL ROBERTSON HAS THE

LATEST.

Reporter: SPECIAL COUNSEL

JACK SMITH ANNOUNCING THE

INDICTMENT OF DONALD TRUMP

RELATED TO HIS ACTIONS IN THE

2020 ELECTION. THE INDICTMENT

ACCUSES TRUMP OF ADVANCING

FALSE CLAIMS OF ELECTION FRAUD

TO REMAIN IN POWER.

SINCE THE ATTACK , THE

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE HAS

REMAINED COMMITTED TO

ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THOSE

CRIMINALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT

HAPPENED THAT DAY. THIS CASE

WAS BROUGHT CONSISTENT WITH

THAT COMMITMENT .

Reporter: CONSPIRACY TO

DEFRAUD THE UNITED STATES,

CONSPIRACY TO OBSTRUCT AN

OFFICIAL PROCEEDING,

OBSTRUCTION OF AND ATTEMPT TO

OBSTRUCT AN OFFICIAL PROCEEDING

AND CONSPIRACY AGAINST RIGHTS .

IN THIS CASE, MY OFFICE WILL

SEE A SPEEDY TRIAL SO THAT

EVIDENCE CAN BE TESTED IN COURT

AND JUDGED BY A JURY OF

CITIZENS.

245-PAGE INDICTMENT ACCUSES

TRUMP OF MAYBE SIX CONSPIRATORS

TO ASSIST IN THE CRIMINAL

EFFORTS TO OVERTURN THE

LEGITIMATE RESULTS OF THE 2020

ELECTION BY CREATING PROJECT

STATES OF ELECTORS IN SEVEN

STATES. PROSECUTORS CLAIM

TRUMP KNOWINGLY REPEATED FALSE

CLAIMS OF ELECTION FRAUD AND

MADE THEM APPEAR LEGITIMATE

CREATING AN INTENSE ATMOSPHERE

OF MISTRUST AND ANGER

CULMINATING IN THE DEADLY RIOT

. IN A STATEMENT, TRUMP

CAMPAIGN CLAIMS THIS IS NOTHING

MORE THAN THE LATEST CORRUPT

CHAPTER IN THE CONTINUED

PATHETIC ATTEMPT BY THE BIDEN

CRIME FAMILY AND THE RECOGNIZE

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE TO

INTERFERE WITH THE 2024

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

WE HAVE NEVER HAD AN

ELECTION WHERE THE -- WHAT IS

GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN THERE IS A

REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION?

WILL THERE BE AN EFFORT TO

CRIMINALIZE SPEECH BY

DEMOCRATS?

Reporter: ARGUING TRUMP'S

CLAIMS ARE PROTECTED UNDER THE

CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT OF FREE

SPEECH.

IF WE HAVE A SITUATION WHERE

THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE IS

GOING TO FACT CHECK POLITICIANS

AND POLITICAL SPEECH AND

WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE

FACTUALLY ACCURATE, THEN THIS

COUNTRY WILL SHUT DOWN

POLITICALLY BECAUSE IT IS A

NEVER ENDING CYCLE OF FOR TAT

AND THAT IS THE RISK OF

INJECTING POLITICS INTO THE

CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM .

Reporter: ALSO INCLUDING

NOTES FROM FORMER VICE

PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE AND TRUMP

SHOWING THE PRESIDENT WANTED

HIS BP TO REJECT ELECTORAL

VOTES ON JANUARY THE SIXTH.

MIKE PENCE NOW SAYING ANYONE

WHO PUTS HIMSELF OVER THE

CONSTITUTION SHOULD NEVER BE

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

IN A POST, RON DESANTIS, HIS

TRIBAL -- TRUMPS STRONGEST

BIBLE SAYS THE INDICTMENT IS

BEING POLITICIZED WRITING ONE

OF THE REASONS OUR COUNTRY IS

IN DECLINE IS THE

POLITICALIZATION OF THE LAW. NO

MORE EXCUSES. I WILL END THE

WEAPONIZATION OF THE FEDERAL

GOVERNMENT. TRUMP WILL RETURN .

THE JUDGE HAS HANDED OUT THE

LONGEST PRISON SENTENCES FOR

CAPITOL RIOTERS, THUS FAR

ABIGAIL ROBERTSON, CBN NEWS.

> THE CHIEF POLITICAL ANALYST

, DAVID BRODY, JOINS US NOW.

THREE OF THESE ARE CONSPIRACY

COUNTS. THAT MEANS THEY ARE

ALLEGING WHAT YOU TALKED

ABOUT. TRUMP'S ATTORNEYS ARE

ARGUING ALL OF THIS IS GOING

TO BE PROTECTED UNDER FREE

SPEECH. WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS

IS GOING TO DO . DO YOU THINK

THIS WILL BUY INTO SOME GRAND

CONSPIRACY OR IT IS POLITICAL

SPEECH?

OBVIOUSLY, TRUMP WILL HAVE

ISSUE AFTER ISSUE. POLITICALLY,

THIS IS A BOOM TO HIM. THE LAST

TIME HE WAS INDICTED, THE FIRST

TIME HE WAS INDICTED, HE RAISED

$4 MILLION A DAY IN THAT FIRST

WEEK. AND I DON'T SEE THAT

CHANGING ANYTIME SOON. WHAT I

BELIEVE , GORDON, AND I BELIEVE

THIS VERY STRONGLY FROM AN

ANALYTICAL STANDPOINT, WHAT WE

HAVE SEEN SO FAR, THE MOR

INDICTMENTS THAT PRESIDENT

TRUMP GETS AND THERE WILL BE A

COUPLE OF MORE COMING OR AT

LEAST ONE MORE IN GEORGIA, FOR

SURE, THE MORE INDICTMENTS THAT

PILE UP , THE CLOSER DONALD

TRUMP IS TO BECOMING THE

EX-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED

STATES AND THIS IS THE REASON

WHY: WHAT THE LEFT GETS WRONG,

WHAT THE MEDIA GETS WRONG IS

THAT THEY THINK THIS IS ALL

ABOUT TRUMP. IT HAS NEVER BEEN

ABOUT TRUMP . WHAT IT HAS BEEN

ABOUT IS THE LACK OF FAITH IN

OUR PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS. THE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. AND THAT

GOES BACK DECADES AND DECADES.

WE SAW A LOT OF THE GRUMBLINGS

IN THE TEA PARTY AND NOW HERE

IS DONALD TRUMP IN 2024, 2023,

EXCUSE ME. BUT YOU HAVE A LACK

OF FAITH IN PUBLIC

INSTITUTIONS LIKE THE

GOVERNMENT AND THE MEDIA AND

BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE LOST FAITH,

THEY SAID DONALD TRUMP IS A

VICTIM. HE IS A VICTIM

ACCORDING TO MANY FOLKS WHO

SUPPORT HIM AND IT IS NOT JUST

REPUBLICANS. THERE ARE A LOT OF

BLUE-COLLAR INDEPENDENCE,

BLUE-COLLAR DEMOCRATS THAT

VOTED FOR HIM IN 2016 THAT FEEL

GRIEVED, FRUSTRATED THAT DON'T

TRUST THE GOVERNMENT, DON'T

TRUST MEDIA AND EVERY TIME THEY

PYLON TO DONALD TRUMP, THEY

SAY, WAIT A MINUTE, HE IS NOT

THE PERSON DOING ANYTHING

WRONG, HE IS THE VICTIM. AND I

BELIEVE THAT IS WHY DONALD

TRUMP WILL ACTUALLY BE MUCH

CLOSER TO THE PRESIDENCY AFTER

ALL OF THESE INDICTMENTS AND

THAT IS THE WORST SCENARIO

HERE, GORDON.

> I THINK YOU ARE UNDER SOME

REALLY IMPORTANT AND THAT IS TO

TIE ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE TEA

PARTY AND THEIR EFFORT TO

MOBILIZE IN 2012 THE IRS,

ABSOLUTELY BLOCKED IT . THAT

ACTION ON THEIR PART WAS

ABSOLUTELY ILLEGAL. BUT NOBODY

PAID A PRICE FOR THAT. LOIS

LERNER IS STILL PULLING A

GOVERNMENT PENSION AND SHE HAS

TAKEN THE FIFTH AMENDMENT IN

FRONT OF CONGRESS OVER WHAT SHE

DID AND SHE HAD REGULAR

MEETINGS IN THE OBAMA WHITE

HOUSE. SO, YOU DO LOOK AT THIS

AND GO, IS THERE A DOUBLE

STANDARD? IS IT BEING EQUALLY

APPLIED? ALL OF THAT ASIDE, I

DO THINK JACK SMITH IS AN

INCREDIBLY CAPABLE ATTORNEY.

AND I ACTUALLY THINK HE COULD

OBTAIN A CONVICTION FROM A

REEF. HE IS THE SAME LAWYER

THAT TRIED GOVERNOR BOB

McDONALD'S AND GOD A

RECONVICTION AND GOD AN

AFFIRMATION FROM THE FOUR

CIRCUITS AND DISCIPLINE COURT

WEIGHED IN AND SAID, THIS CASE

HOLDS ALL POLITICS SHUT DOWN.

THIS IS ESSENTIALLY WHAT

POLITICIANS DO , THEY GIVE

FAVORS TO THEIR SUPPORTERS AND

THAT IS WHAT THIS CASE IS ALL

ABOUT.

DECISION. DO YOU THINK WE WILL

SEE THAT KIND OF OUTCOME HERE

OR YOU COULD ACTUALLY GET A

RECONVICTION ? IT GOES TO THE

SPRING COURT. THAT WILL BE

AFTER THE 2024 ELECTION. HOW

IS THIS GOING TO PLAY OUT?

BECAUSE IT JUST SEEMS TO BE THE

MOST UNUSUAL THING IN MY VIEW

IN ALL OF AMERICAN HISTORY.

YOU WILL HAVE A BETTER LEGAL

SENSE OF THIS I WILL. I WILL

SIMPLY SAY THAT TO PROSECUTE

THIS CRIMINALLY, IT IS GOING TO

BE VERY DIFFICULT. THIS IS NOT

-- YOU HAVE READ THE

INDICTMENT. IT GOES THROUGH

THIS IDEA THAT TRUMP KNEW IT

WAS FALSE, REALLY? NOW WE HAVE

MIND READING? ACTUALLY, HE DID

NOT KNOW IT WAS FALSE BECAUSE

HE WAS GETTING ALL OF THIS

ADVISE SAYING IT WAS FALSE.

BUT WHAT HE DOESN'T SAY IN THE

INDICTMENT IS HE IS GETTING A

LOT OF EFFORT -- OTHER

INFORMATION SAYING IT IS A

FALSE AND TRUMP DECIDED TO GO

WITH WHAT HE THOUGHT WAS TRUE

AND NOT WITH WHAT EVERYBODY

ELSE WAS TELLING HIM. YOU CAN

DISAGREE AND SAY HE IS

STUBBORN, RIDICULOUS AND HE

SHOULD HAVE NEVER DONE IT. AND

REMEMBER THE ELECTORAL COUNT

WHICH IS WHY DONALD TRUMP WAS

FACING A LOT OF THIS ON MIKE

PENCE HAD THE ABILITY TO SEND

THIS BACK TO THE STATE

LEGISLATURES. IT HAD NEVER

BEEN TESTED BEFORE TRUMP WANTED

TO TEST IT SO, THAT IS WHAT

PART OF THIS WAS ABOUT. WE

DON'T SEE THAT AT ALL IN THE

INDICTMENT NOT TO MENTION THE

FACT THAT CONGRESS, THE SENATE

ACTUALLY CHANGED THE ELECTORAL

COUNT BECAUSE THEY NEEDED TO

CLARIFY SO THAT WOULD GO IN

TRUMP'S FAVOR, THE FACT THAT

THEY HAVE CLARIFIED THE

ELECTORAL COUNT BUT THE PLAY

IS, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO

ACTUALLY START TO CRIMINALIZE

WHAT SOMEONE IS THINKING AND

WHAT SOMEONE IS IN ESSENCE

TRYING TO MAKE HIS CASE TO SAY

HE THOUGHT THE ELECTION WAS

UNFAIR AND STOLEN.

THERE IS A LONG HISTORY AND

CRIMINAL JURISPRUDENCE ABOUT

DOING EXACTLY THAT. THAT IS

WHAT CONSPIRACY CHARGES ARE ALL

ABOUT NOT ONLY DID YOU THINK

ABOUT IT BUT YOU TALKED ABOUT

IT. YOU MAY NOT HAVE DONE THAT

BUT THE FACT THAT YOU TALKED

ABOUT IT IS ENOUGH TO GET A

CONVICTION AND THAT HAS BEEN

HAPPENING A LONG TIME SO, LET'S

TURN BACK TO POLITICS. LET'S

GET OFF OF THE LAW OF THIS BOOK

IS TRUMP BURNING THROUGH A LOT

OF CASH JUST TO PAY LEGAL

BILLS?

YEAH, THEY HAVE GONE THROUGH

$40 MILLION FOR THIS YEAR

ALONE. $60 MILLION IF YOU GO

BACK TO 2021 SINCE HE LEFT

OFFICE AND IF YOU LOOK AT RON

DESANTIS NUMBERS, HE HAS ABOUT

TRIPLE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT

DONALD TRUMP HAS WHAT IT COMES

TO THESE PACK AND IT GETS A

LITTLE COMPLICATED. THERE ARE

ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT PACKS.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS, IS IN A

HURTING MODE INTENSE FINANCES.

THE GOOD NEWS FOR TRUMP IS THAT

HE WILL RAISE A LOT OF MONEY

OFF OF THIS AND HE WILL

CONTINUE TO RAISE MONEY AND

HE'S DONALD TRUMP. IT IS A

TEFLON , XYZ DOESN'T SEEM TO

AFFECT TOO MUCH BECAUSE HE HAS

A CONNECTION WITH THE PEOPLE.

HE FEELS HE HAS BEEN AGGRIEVED

AND THE PEOPLE AGREE. I THINK

RIGHT THERE IS WHERE IT BEGINS

AND ENDS AND THE LEFT DOESN'T

LIKE IT BUT THAT IS THE

REALITY.

LET'S LOOK FORWARD TO A VERY

ACTIVE CAMPAIGN. THIS IS GOING

TO BE INTERESTING. THIS IS

GOING TO BE THE MOST

ROUGH-AND-TUMBLE CAMPAIGN I

THINK WE WILL EVER, EVER SEE.

AT LEAST, I HOPE WE WILL EVER

SEE IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

> LET'S TURN TO OTHER NEWS,

CORRIE 10 BOOM AND HER FAMILY

RISKED EVERYTHING TO HIDE

JEWISH REFUGEES FROM THE IN

WORLD WAR II. THEIR HEROIC

STORY IS TOLD IN THEIR 1971

ORDERED -- AUTOBIOGRAPHY, THE

HIDING PLACE. EFREM GRAHAM

CAUGHT UP WITH THE CAST AND

CREATORS FOR A PREVIEW.

OH MY DEAR CORNELIA , [

CRYING ] WHEN THE TIME COMES,

COURAGE, YOUR FATHER WILL GIVE

YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED.

COURAGE, IT IS THE BEST WORD

TO DESCRIBE THE STORY OF COREY

TENBOOM AND HER HUMBLE FAMILY

OF CHRISTIAN WATCHMAKERS WHO

HIT HUNDREDS OF JEWISH

NEIGHBORS DURING WORLD WAR II,

RISKING EVERYTHING AND ENDURING

I HAVE SOME NEWS PICS OUT

WITH IT, THEN! [ LAUGHTER ]

THIS STORY MADE FOR THE

STAGE NOW MOVES TO THE BIG

SCREEN.

I PLAYED COREY TENBOOM .

I AM THE DIRECTOR AND

DESIGNER.

MY NAME IS PETE PETERSON, I

AM THE WRITER OF THE STAGEPLAY

AND THE PRODUCER OF THE FILM,

THE HIDING PLACE.

I AM MEETING MY POSITION AT

THE CHURCH .

WATCH? HOW CAN YOU? BUT

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

I THINK MINISTRY IS CALL. I

HAVE OPENED A HOME FOR THE

ELDERLY.

THE ELDERLY?

THE PLAY IS BASED ON COREY

TENBOOM'S BOOK BY THE SAME

NAME

WHAT WAS THE PROCESS OF

TURNING THE HIDING PLACE INTO A

STAGEPLAY?

THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION. I

WENT INTO IT WITH A LOT OF FEAR

AND TREMBLING. MY WIFE AND I

JUMPED ON A PLANE AND VISITED

THE HIDING PLACE THAT WE DROVE

ACROSS GERMANY TO VISIT ROBINS

BROOKE CONCENTRATION CAMP

WHERE COREY AND BETSY ENDED UP.

UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN IN A

CONCENTRATION CAMP, YOU CANNOT

REALLY FATHOM HOW BIG THE EVIL

THAT HAPPENED WAS. WALKING TO

THE GAS CHAMBER AND TO

LITERALLY STAND IN FRONT OF THE

OVEN WHERE BETSY TENBOOM WAS

DISPOSED OF AND THAT IS A

PROCESS OF RESEARCH THAT

FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED MY

RELATIONSHIP TO THE STORY AND

THE ONE THING THAT WAS REALLY

CLEAR TO ME IS THAT IT IS

REALLY EASY TO THINK THE HIDING

PLACE IS ABOUT COREY TENBOOM

AND IT IS, OBVIOUSLY, BUT BETSY

TENBOOM IS THE REAL HERO OF

THE STORY IN A LOT OF WAYS.

COREY'S INTENT WITH TELLING

THE STORY IN SOME WAYS WAS TO

HONOR THE BEAUTIFUL PERSON THAT

HER SISTER WAS. SO I REALLY

WANTED TO BE COMMITTED TO

MAKING SURE THAT WE TOLD THAT

STORY, AS WELL. BACK TO YOU

THINK SHE GETS OVERLOOKED IN

HISTORY?

I THINK SHE WAS LOTS OF

PEOPLE BY THE NAME COREY

TENBOOM BUT BETSY IS NOT

TALKED ABOUT AS MUCH IN BETSY

IS ONE OF THE MOST REMARKABLE

PEOPLE THAT I HAVE EVER

ENCOUNTERED. IN THE MIDST OF

THE WORST CIRCUMSTANCES IS

SOMETHING I STRUGGLE TO DO WHEN

I AM JUST HAVING A BAD MONDAY.

IT IF YOU CONSIDER ME A

PRIEST.

WHY DO YOU THINK IT IS

IMPORTANT FOR THIS TO GO FROM

STAGE, NOW, TO SCREEN?

BECAUSE IT WILL REACH SO

MANY MORE PEOPLE. WE WILL GET

TO KNOW THIS STORY. THE

CURRENT GENERATION DOESN'T KNOW

A LOT ABOUT COREY. AND IT IS

SO IMPORTANT FOR THIS STORY TO

BE RE-TOLD AND RETOLD. NOT

ONLY FROM THE STANDPOINT THAT

IF YOU DON'T KNOW HISTORY, YOU

ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT BUT WE

NEED TO BE ENCOURAGED. WE NEED

TO KNOW THE NAMES OF THE

PEOPLE IN THAT CLOUD OF

WITNESSES.

CBN NEWS, NASHVILLE,

TENNESSEE.

> THE HIDING PLACE WILL BE IN

THEATERS THIS THURSDAY AND

SATURDAY. TO FIND OUT WHERE

YOU CAN SEE IT, GO TO CBN

NEWS.COM. I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU

TO WRITE ABOUT COREY TENBOOM

AND BETSY TENBOOM AND HOW THEY

WERE SO COURAGEOUS AND HOW THEY

STOOD UP AGAINST EVIL AND

BETSY DID THAT AND GAVE HER

LIFE. COREY WENT THROUGH

UNBELIEVABLE HORRORS IN A

CONCENTRATION CAMP AND THESE

ARE THINGS THAT WILL ENCOURAGE

US AS WE GO THROUGH

DIFFICULTIES IN LIFE AND THAT

IS PROMISED TO US IN THE BIBLE

. IN THIS WORLD, YOU WILL HAVE

TROUBLE, BUT BE OF GOOD

COURAGE FOR I HAVE OVERCOME THE

WORLD WHEN YOU READ THE

TESTIMONIES OF PEOPLE WHO TRULY

OVERCOME THE WORLD AND NOT

JUST OVERCAME IT IN A LITTLE

WAY BUT TRIUMPHED OVER IT, IT

WILL GIVE YOU THE COVERAGE YOU

NEED TO FACE LIFE. ASHLEY?

> I WANTED TO MENTION, CORRIE

TENBOOM WAS A GUEST ON THE 700

CLUB .

WE WALKED DOWN EVERY

SATURDAY TO DO THIS, THERE WAS

COREY BEING INTERVIEWED BY MY

FATHER. I WAS A VERY YOUNG MAN

AND IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT

I WAS BUT I WAS A VERY YOUNG

MAN AND I MET HER. THE PRESENCE

THAT SHE HAD, WHAT SHE CARRIED

IN HER CHARACTER, THE

ATMOSPHERE THAT SHE BROUGHT

WITH HER WAS ABSOLUTELY

STUNNING. YOU GOD INTO HER

PRESENCE AND YOU JUST HAD A

SENSE OF HOLINESS. IT LEFT

SUCH AN IMPRESSION ON ME.

EVEN AT SUCH A YOUNG AGE,

THAT IS AMAZING

ANYBODY AT ANY AGE GETS

LITTLE SKINNY WIMPS.

THE LORD OPENED UP MY HEART

TO OPEN MY HOUSE FOR A SAFE

PLACE FOR WOMEN TO COME FROM

BEFORE. I SAID, IF THERE IS A

GOD, HELP YOUR CHILD! JESUS! I

HEARD A SOUND AND HE SAID,

CHILD, GET UP. WHEN I HEARD

THAT VOICE, I COULDN'T GET UP

> A FOREST FIRE FATHER

FORCED TO LISTEN TO THE READING

OF THE QURAN DURING THE DAY AND

AT NIGHT FOR US TO VIOLATE HER

OWN SISTER. HER CHILDHOOD WAS A

TWISTED TALE OF SEXUAL

PERVERSION UNTIL THE NIGHT LISA

POUNDED ON HER FRONT DOOR.

OUR FAMILY WAS VERY STRICT

MUSLIMS. MY FATHER WAS VERY

SERIOUS ABOUT US STUDYING THE

KORAN AND KNOWING WHAT IT SAID.

LISTEN, IT WAS DEMANDED OF

HER AS SHE HEARD THE KORAN READ

OUT LOUD. MISHA OBEYED BECAUSE

SHE WANTED TO PLEASE A LAW AND

NOT ANGER HER FATHER.

I WAS VERY PROUD TO WEAR MY

HEADDRESS EVEN AS A CHILD, I

FELT KIND OF SUPERIOR.

Reporter: BUT DESPITE HIS

RELIGIOUS FERVOR, HIS FATHER

WAS PHYSICALLY AND SEXUALLY

ABUSIVE .

I REMEMBER ONE TIME LAYING

NEXT TO MY SISTER AND MY FATHER

AS HE SEXUALLY ABUSED HER. IT

WAS SO PAINFUL. I DIDN'T KNOW

WHAT WAS GOING ON. IT MADE ME

FEEL LIKE I WAS VERY ALONE

EVEN THOUGH MY FATHER DIDN'T

ABUSE ME, I FELT EVERYTHING

LIKE I WAS BEING ABUSED. I FELT

EVERYTHING, I THOUGHT MY

SISTER'S PAIN BECAUSE I WATCHED

IT. I WATCHED EVERYTHING THAT

THEY WENT THROUGH. I WATCHED

EVERYTHING. MY MOM WAS SO

HELPLESS. SHE HAD NO ONE TO

HELP HER . ONE TIME, I SAW MY

MOM AND DAD FIGHT EACH OTHER .

SHE WOULD THROW WEIGHT SET HIM

TO FIGHT BACK. IT WAS A VERY

VIOLENT UPBRINGING. I THOUGHT

THIS WAS NORMAL, THIS WAS MY

NORMAL.

PLEASE, PLEASE .

ALTHOUGH MISHA WASN'T ABUSED

LIKE HER MOTHER AND SISTERS,

THE PERVERSION AT HOME MADE HER

QUESTION --

I FELT THE URGE TO PRAY TO

GOD AND NOT ÷ LA . I ASKED

GOD, PLEASE HELP MY SISTERS SO

THEY WON'T GET BEAT HIM

ANYMORE. I REMEMBER CRYING AND

I REMEMBER PRAYING THAT PRAYER.

Reporter: THE NEXT NIGHT,

POLICE POUNDED ON THEIR DOOR

AND ARRESTED MISHA'S FATHER

AND HE WAS SENTENCED TO 10

YEARS IN PRISON TO MISHA, IT

WAS A SIGN .

I KEPT PRAYING THAT WAY

BECAUSE I KNEW GOD WOULD

ANSWER.

TO GET HELP FROM OTHER

RELATIVES, MISHA'S MOTHER, HER

DAUGHTERS MOVED TO NEW YORK

CITY. HOWEVER, THERE WAS NEVER

ENOUGH MONEY TO SUPPORT THEM SO

MISHA SHED HER DIGNITY TO HELP

PAY FOR HER FAMILY'S FOOD AND

RENT.

I STARTED STRIPPING WHEN I

WAS 15 YEARS OLD. MY MOM DID

NOT HAVE ANY IDEA AND IT WAS

FAST AND IT WAS EASY. AND I

NEEDED THAT MONEY. I STOPPED

BELIEVING AT ALL. I DIDN'T

CARE ABOUT ANY GOD . I WAS

LIVING FAST AND I WAS LOVING

IT.

Reporter: TWO YEARS AFTER

MISHA'S FATHER WAS PAROLED, HE

DIED MISHA FOLLOWED HER MOTHER

AND SISTERS TO ALABAMA WHERE

THEY HAD RELOCATED. STILL IN

HIGH SCHOOL, SHE MET LARRY AND

FELL IN LOVE AFTER GRADUATION,

THEY MARRIED.

THERE WAS A GENUINENESS

ABOUT A , THERE WAS A REALNESS,

HE WAS A LOVING I THINK YOU

FILLED THAT VOID THAT I REALLY

WANTED SOMEONE TO LOVE ME.

Reporter: AT TIMES, SHE WENT

TO CHURCH WITH LARRY'S FAMILY

AND COUSIN .

WORSHIPING TOGETHER, MEN

AND WOMEN , BEING RAISED AS

MUSLIMS, I THOUGHT IT WAS

STRANGE.

Reporter: SHE WASN'T EXCITED

ABOUT CHURCH BUT RATHER A

SECRET RELATIONSHIP. SHE LEFT

LARRY AND COMMITTED ADULTERY

WITH AN OLDER MAN.

I SAW MY FATHER BE

PROMISCUOUS AND I THOUGHT IT

WAS OKAY WHILE HE WAS MARRIED

SO I FIGURED, WHY NOT? WHY NOT?

THEY GOD BACK TOGETHER TO

TRY TO WORK THROUGH THE

BETRAYAL. LARRY'S COUSINS

STARTED POSTING SERMONS ABOUT

JESUS. ONE DAY IN HER CAR,

MISHA STOPPED AND LISTENED TO A

POST THAT OVERWHELMED HER.

I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I WAS

OUT BUT I KNOW THAT I WAS OUT.

AND THAT DAY, MY SOUL WAS

SAVED. AND THE PRAYER, SHE WAS

SAYING, SURRENDER. SAY IT, I

SURRENDER. AND I KEPT TELLING

JESUS, I SURRENDER! I

SURRENDER, JESUS. AND I HEARD

HIS VOICE LIKE I HAVE NEVER

HEARD ANYBODY TALK LIKE THAT IT

WAS LIKE A FEAR WASHED OVER ME.

NOT LIKE A FEAR THAT I WAS

SCARED OF THE DARK BUT A FEAR

THAT WAS HEAVY . IT WAS NO

LONGER GOD, IT WAS JESUS. AND

I SURRENDER TO HIM THAT DAY,

FULLY, TOTALLY, BECAUSE I SAID

IT WITH MY MOUTH, WITH MY

HEART, WITH MY MIND. I MEANT

IT.

Reporter: IMMEDIATELY, SHE

FELT DEEP SORROW FOR THOSE SHE

HARMED AND FORGIVENESS TOWARD

THOSE WHO WANTED HER .

IT ADDED MORE PAIN IN MY

HEART TO SEE LARRY IN PAIN, TO

SEE LARRY HURTING THE WAY I

MADE HIM HURT AND I ACTUALLY

WROTE THAT AND I SAID, I CAUSED

THIS. EVERYBODY WHO OFFENDED

ME OR EVERYBODY WHO DID

ANYTHING TO ME, HE TOLD ME TO

PRAY FOR THEM, LET THEM GO.

HER DESIRES AND PRIORITIES

CHANGE, TO MAKE.

I STARTED TO WANT AND

DESIRE HIS WORD, I WAS READING

THE BIBLE MORE AND MORE, I WAS

IN THE WORD MORE AND MORE, I

WAS HUNGRY BUT NOW, BECAUSE I

TAKE THE WORD AND I APPLY THE

WORD TO MY LIFE, TO MY FAMILY,

TO THOSE AROUND ME, TO THE

CHILDREN THAT I MINISTER TO,

THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE. WE HAVE

PEACE, WE HAVE LOVE, AND I

REMEMBER THE LORD ALWAYS TOLD

ME , I WILL NEVER ALLOW

VIOLENCE BE MENTIONED IN YOUR

LAND EVER AGAIN AND THERE IS

NO MORE VIOLENCE. JESUS GAVE

ME SOMETHING THAT I NEVER HAD.

HE WAS THE FATHER. HE IS ABBA

FATHER. HE WAS THE FATHER I

WAS SEEKING FROM OTHER MEN. HE

WAS THE GOOD, GOOD FATHER THAT

I DESPERATELY WANTED TO MEET

AND I NEEDED.

HE WILL BE YOUR COMFORTER.

HE WILL BE YOUR SAVIOR. HE

WILL BE YOUR ALL AND ALL . WHAT

HAPPENED TO MISHA CAN HAPPEN

TO YOU. YOU CAN HAVE A

TRANSFORMATION FROM ALL OF THAT

HURT AND ALL OF THAT WILL TAKEN

AWAY . AND YOU GET LIFE MORE

ABUNDANTLY. YOU GET TO HAVE

JOY. YOU GET TO HAVE ALL OF

THESE THINGS, ALL BECAUSE YOU

CHOSE JUST LIKE MISHA CHOSE .

SHE MADE A CHOICE TO SURRENDER

ALL. TO NOT KEEP SOME THINGS

BACK BUT TO SAY JESUS, I GIVE

YOU PART OF MY LIFE. NO, SHE

SAID I GIVE IT ALL TO YOU. AND

WHEN YOU DO THAT, THAT IS WHEN

YOU ENTER INTO HIS PRESENCE.

AND HE RECEIVES YOU WITH OPEN

ARMS. NOW, SOME OF YOU MAY BE

LIKE MISHA WHERE YOU HAVE HAD

ABUSIVE PARENTS. MAYBE SOME OF

YOU HAVE GONE JUST LIKE MISHA

WENT THROUGH SEXUAL ABUSE. AT

15, IF YOU ARE GOING TO STRIP

CLUBS PERFORMING, YELL, YOU

ARE GOING TO BE TRAUMATIZED BY

THAT. SHE WAS TRAUMATIZED BY

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER SISTER.

SHE WAS TRAUMATIZED BY WHAT

HAPPENED . AND MAYBE THAT IS

YOU. MAYBE IT DIRECTLY HAPPENED

TO YOU, MAYBE YOU WITNESSED

IT. EITHER WAY, YOU ARE STILL

CARRYING THAT HURT. YOU ARE

STILL CARRYING THAT WOUND. I

HAVE GREAT NEWS FOR YOU, JESUS

CAN HEAL IT. HE CAN COME INTO

YOUR LIFE AND MAKE YOU

BRAND-NEW, HE CAN BE YOUR

FATHER, YOUR COMFORTER, YOUR

SAVIOR, YOUR ALL. YOU HEARD

IT, YOU SAW THE CHANGE, YOU SAW

IT IN HER EYES, WHAT SHE WAS

SAYING IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE AND

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER CAN

HAPPEN TO YOU . IF YOU JUST

TAKE THE SAME STEPS. SO LET'S

DO THAT RIGHT NOW, LET'S PRAY.

GOD IS ALL AROUND YOU AND HE

CAN HEAR YOU. HE HAS GONE

THROUGH EVERYTHING WITH YOU. HE

HAS EXPERIENCED ABUSE, TOO. HE

KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS. HE

WANTS TO COME AND HELP YOU.

AND HE WANTS TO BE YOUR SAVIOR

, YOUR MESSIAH , YOUR COMFORTER

, YOUR FATHER , YOUR ALL IN

ALL. SO LET'S PRAY AND ASK HIM

TO DO THAT AND HE WILL PRAY

WITH ME. JESUS, SAY HIS NAME,

SAY IT OUT LOUD -- JESUS, I

WANT TO SURRENDER ALL . I WANT

TO SURRENDER . YOU KNOW THE

HURT THAT IS IN MY HEART. YOU

KNOW THE REJECTION I FEEL . YOU

KNOW THE PAIN . AND, LORD GOD

ALMIGHTY, I SURRENDER IT ALL TO

YOU. AND I ASK THAT YOU COME IN

, THAT YOU MAKE ME NEW AGAIN ,

THAT YOU FILL MY HEART WITH JOY

, WITH PEACE , THAT YOU WOULD

BE THE COMFORTER FOR ME , THAT

YOU WOULD WRAP ME IN YOUR LOVE

AND FILL ME TO OVERFLOWING

AND LET ME KNOW THAT I AM

ACCEPTED IN YOU . JESUS , I

TURN IT ALL TO YOU

DO IT ON MY OWN, I TURNED IT

ALL TO YOU. AND IF YOU TAKE

THIS, IF YOU TAKE MY LIFE, I

WANT TO FOLLOW YOU ALL THE DAYS

OF MY LIFE . I DON'T WANT TO

TAKE IT BACK, I WANT TO GIVE IT

CONTINUALLY TO YOU. HEAR MY

PRAYER FOR I PRAY IT IN JESUS

NAME . AMEN. FATHER, FOR THOSE

WHO JUST PRAYED, I ASK FOR A

BAPTISM. I ASK THAT YOU BREATHE

ON THEM , THAT YOU FILL THEM

WITH YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, WITH

YOUR LOVE, WITH YOUR

ACCEPTANCE, WITH YOUR COMFORT .

CLEANSE THEM FROM THE TOP OF

THE HEAD TO THE SOLES OF THEIR

> THERE IS AN OLD SAYING IN

BASEBALL: YOU CAN SEE SOMETHING

NEW EVERY DAY. AS A VETERAN OF

10 PRO SEASONS, NICK AHMED HAS

WITNESSED HIS SHARE OF THE

UNUSUAL. STILL, THERE IS ONE

GAME THAT STICKS OUT IN

PARTICULAR. HE WAS STANDING AS

SHORTSTOP BETWEEN INNINGS WHEN

HE DID SOMETHING HE HAS NEVER

DONE BEFORE. HE GAVE HIS LIFE

TO GOD. TOM DEARING HAS HIS

STORY.

Reporter: FLOURISHING IN THE

PHOENIX DESERT IS A FAMILIAR

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS, NICK

ALLMOND IS A TWO TIME

SHORTSTOP WHOSE PRESENCE BRINGS

POISE AND PURPOSE TO AN

EMERGING YOUNG CONTENDER IN THE

NATIONAL LEAGUE WEST, EMBRACING

HIS OWN PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION

THAT IS DEEP ENOUGH TO GET

TRACTION TO A GAME AND CAREER

THAT ARE BOTH STILL EVOLVING.

WHAT CHANGES THIS YEAR?

DIFFICULT TRANSITION FOR YOU?

THE PITCH WAS DEFINITELY

SOMETHING TO GET USED TO, THE

PITCHING TEMPO, GETTING IN AND

OUT OF THE BATTER'S BOX,

PLANNING AND FILLED HAS HAD AN

EFFECT ON ME A LOT, HAVING ONLY

TWO GUYS ON EACH SIDE OF SECOND

BASE, HAVING TO STEP IN THE

DIRT. STEALING BASES THIS YEAR

IS EXCITING. ESPECIALLY WITH A

YOUNG TEAM WITH SPEED. MOST

GUYS ARE ENJOYING THE DIFFERENT

STYLE OF PLAY. 25 OR 26 MINUTES

ON AVERAGE. YOU MULTIPLY THAT

OVER 162 GAMES AND IT IS LIKE

40 EXTRA GAMES. SO THAT IS

SOMETHING OF A GOOD BENEFIT

FOR PLAYERS AND FANS, AS WELL.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL

SURPRISE US MOST STANDING IN

YOUR CLEATS FOR THAT IN GAME

EXPERIENCE?

I THINK THE PREPARATION THAT

GOES INTO IT, MOST GUYS BETWEEN

1:00 AND 1:30. YOU GET A WEIGHT

WORKOUT IN AND WE HAVE

MEETINGS. THE GUYS ARE OUT

HERE RIGHT NOW TAKING GROUND

BALLS, WORKING ON THEIR

PITCHES. THEY TAKE BATTING

PRACTICE AND THEY DO IT AGAIN

RIGHT BEFORE THE GAME SO I

THINK IT IS HOW MUCH

PREPARATION GOES INTO EACH AND

EVERY DAY. STAFF YOU ARE IN

RARE TERRITORY. THIS IS A YOUNG

EMERGING TALENT. THE MORE

VETERAN YOU BECOME, YOU BECOME

MORE TRANSPARENT TO POUR INTO

THEM.

100%, I THINK THAT IS A

ROLE I HAVE ENJOYED OVER THE

PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. KNOWING

THE GUYS THAT ARE COMING UP AND

TRYING TO BE THERE FOR THEM AND

SAYING, HOW ARE YOU DOING,

TODAY? SOME GUYS GET THEIR

IDENTITY REALLY WRAPPED UP IN

WHAT THEY ARE DOING SO THAT IS

ONE OF THE DIFFICULT CHALLENGES

OF THE GAME WHERE EVERYTHING

IS ON A PLATFORM AND IT IS ON

TELEVISION AND THE FANS ARE

BOOING YOU IF YOU DON'T DO

WELL. I'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT

IN THIS GAME AND I RELISH AND

APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITIES TO

HELP THE NEXT GENERATION .

YOUR APPROVAL DEEP WITH IN.

WHERE DOES THAT COME FROM?

COMING UP, I FELT LIKE I

NEEDED TO SUCCEED AND ACHIEVE

TO BE VALIDATED AND WHO I WAS,

GOD TAUGHT ME THAT EARLY ON,

PERFORMANCE -BASED IDENTITY IS

TOXIC AND HE TAUGHT ME A NEW

IDENTITY AND A NEW WAY OF

LIVING.

VERY INTENTIONAL BETWEEN

INNINGS IN A MINOR-LEAGUE GAME

OF HEADING OUT TO YOUR SPOT,

PRAYING A PRAYER THAT CHANGED

YOUR LIFE.

I PUT MY FAITH IN THE LORD.

IT WAS DURING A MINOR-LEAGUE

BASEBALL GAME ON THE FIELD

DURING A GAME, I RAN OUT TO

SHORTSTOP AND I DID NOT PLAN TO

DO IT BUT IT WAS A MOMENT OF

DESPERATION. I WAS HAVING A

LOT OF DIFFICULTY OFF THE FIELD

AND I DID NOT HANDLE IT WELL.

FINALLY, I SAID GOD, I AM DONE

AND I ASKED HIM TO COME INTO

MY HEART. I FELT THE HOLY

SPIRIT COME IN AND IT WAS

PRETTY COOL TO HAVE AN ON THE

FIELD. GOD CAN MEET YOU WHERE

YOU ARE AT. THE THING THAT YOU

WANT

WILL SAY, GIVE THAT TO ME.

THE DESERTS, HOW DID YOU

ADJUST TO THAT?

THE HEAT IN THE SUMMER IS

SOMETHING I AM STILL NOT

ACCUSTOMED TO. WE GO IN AND

HAVE A WATER BREAK AND TRY TO

COME BACK OUT BUT WE NEVER HAD

REAL ISSUES.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THE WATER.

JESUS REFERRED TO HIMSELF AS

THE LIVING WATER. HOW DOES HE

BECOME BETTER FOR YOU?

HE WANTS PEOPLE TO SUCCEED

IN WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING IN

LIFE. THEY FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE

TO WAKE UP THE NEXT DAY AND DO

IT AGAIN AND DO IT AGAIN BUT

JESUS IS THE LIVING WATER. HE

HAS ALREADY GIVEN US EVERYTHING

WE NEED. JUST COMING IN FOR

REFRESHMENT AND RENEWAL IS

SOMETHING I ENJOY DOING.

IN YOUR CLUBHOUSE, WALKING

IN LIFE WITH YOUR GUYS, YOUR

FRIENDS AND OFTEN CASES YOUR

BROTHERS, HOW DO YOU MAKE A

MESSAGE OF A RESURRECTED

CHRIST?

I THINK I HAVE TO LIVE IT

OUT. IF I AM NOT LIVING IT OUT

AND I AM BEING HYPOCRITICAL BY

SAYING ONE THING AND DOING

IN THE CLUBHOUSE ON THE

AIRPLANE, ON THE BUS, IN THE

DUGOUT MORE THAN WITH MY

FAMILY SO I HAVE TO LIVE IT

OUT EACH AND EVERY DAY THAT THE

CHARACTER IS REAL AND THEY WILL

SEE THE PEACE AND JOY THAT I

HAVE THAT IS DIFFERENT. WE

WILL COME TO HAVE THOSE

CONVERSATIONS.

AS AN ATHLETE, THAT DRIVE

FOR YOU IS REQUIRED. SEEING

THE FOCUS AND INTENSITY .

I AM NOT SAYING I AM PERFECT

FOR ANY STRETCH OF THE

IMAGINATION BUT FOR ME, WHEN I

COMMIT TO SOMETHING, I AM ALL

IN. STAYING CONSISTENT AND

DISCIPLINED BUT IT IS A CHOICE

WE HAVE OF WHERE WE PUT OUR

FOCUS AND TIME AND ENERGY. WE

ALL HAVE THAT LUKAS ENJOYS EACH

DAY WHEN WE WAKE UP . JESUS IS

OUR FOUNDATION, OUR CORNERSTONE

.

JESUS IS OUR FOUNDATION AND

OUR CORNERSTONE. THANK YOU SO

MUCH. NICK, THANK YOU FOR

SHARING YOUR TESTIMONY WITH US.

I LOVE THAT YOU ARE BEING THE

LIGHT AND GOD CAUSES ALL OF US

TO BE THE LIGHT AND I LOVE WHAT

NICK SAID, GOD CAN MEET US

RIGHT WHERE WE ARE AT AND GOD

MET HIM ON THE BALLFIELD AND

JUST WHAT HE IS DOING THROUGH

NICK AND HIS SURRENDER. AND IF

YOU GUYS NEED PRAYER FOR

ANYTHING AT ALL, IF YOU WANT

GOD TO MEET YOU RIGHT WHERE YOU

ARE AT NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE

AT, PLEASE GIVE US A CALL. OUR

PRAYER CENTER IS OPEN 24/7 . WE

HAVE PRAYER WARRIORS WANT TO

LIFT YOU UP IN PRAYER AND

REALLY JUST ASK THE LORD TO

> BABY KEENAN WASN'T LIKE

MOST CHILDREN. WHEN HE WAS

BORN WITH A CLEFT LIP, THEY

SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR HELP

AND THAT IS WHERE THEY FOUND

OPERATION BLESSING.

Reporter: THE 22-YEAR-OLD

AND HERSELF AFTER HER SON WAS

BORN WITH A CLEFT LIP.

I REMEMBER I WAS ABOUT FOUR

MONTHS PREGNANT AND FELL OFF

OF MY SCOOTER AND BROKE MY

RIGHT ARM. I WENT TO SEE A

THERAPIST HOPING IT WOULD

HEAL. PERHAPS IT WAS THE

MEDICINE THAT CAUSED MY SON TO

BE BORN LIKE THAT

AFTER HE WAS BORN, SHE

ASKED HER MOM TO HELP TAKE CARE

OF KEENAN. BOTH REALIZED HOW

DIFFICULT IT WOULD BE FOR HIM

AS HE GREW UP.

IT IS HARD FOR HIM TO DRINK.

THE FORMULA CAME OUT OF HIS

NOSE. IT IS HARD FOR HIM TO

IMAGINE THE REJECTION HE WOULD

FACE AS HE GROWS UP.

AT FIRST, I THOUGHT THAT HE

WOULD NEVER HAVE A NORMAL LIFE

LIKE OTHER KIDS.

Reporter: THE FAMILY KNEW HE

NEEDED AN OPERATION BUT THAT IS

NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. THIS IS

KEENAN'S DAD.

I WORKED AS A TAXI DRIVER

AND I ONLY HEARD -- EARNED

SEVEN TO $10 A DAY. I KNEW WE

COULD NEVER SAVE ENOUGH FOR HIS

OPERATION.

Reporter: SHE SEARCHED ON

THE INTERNET HOPING TO FIND A

HELP FOR HER BABY. THAT IS

WHERE SHE DISCOVERED OPERATION

LESSON FOR INDONESIA.

THE DAUGHTER -- DOCTOR TOLD

ME THE SOONER WE GET HELP FOR

MY SON, THE BETTER. WHEN I

HEARD OPERATION BLESSING WOULD

PROVIDE FREE SURGERY, I WAS

REALLY HAPPY WHEN I LEARNED

THEY WOULD HELP.

WITHIN A FEW WEEKS, HIS LIP

WAS HEALING NICELY. THE

FAMILY REPORTS THAT HE IS NOW

ABLE TO EAT AND DRINK WITHOUT

CHOKING AND HE IS GAINING

WEIGHT.

IS A MOM, I CANNOT EXPRESS

HOW THANKFUL I AM AND ALL OF

THE SURGEONS WHO MADE IT

POSSIBLE FOR OUR SON.

THOSE THANK YOU'S AND THAT

PRICING GOES TO OUR CBN

> WE BROUGHT SOME OF YOUR

EMAIL QUESTIONS WHICH I

BELIEVE GORDON WILL ANSWER

BECAUSE YOU ARE THE WISE AND

ANOINTED ONE . THIS IS COMING

FROM STEPHEN AND HE SAYS MY

WIFE AND I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN.

HOUR 16-YEAR-OLD AND

19-YEAR-OLD DON'T WANT TO GO TO

CHURCH ANYMORE SO WE HAVE LET

THEM STAY HOME. HOUR TWO

YOUNGER CHILDREN WANT TO GO

WITH US. IS IT RIGHT TO LET

THEM STAY AT HOME?

A LOT OF PARENTS ARE FACING

THAT TODAY. YOUR RAISE UP A

CHILD IN THE WAY THEY GO AND

THEY WILL DEPART FROM IT WHEN

THEY ARE OLDER. TRUST WHAT YOU

HAVE PUT INTO THEM. I AM A

BELIEVER THAT A FORCED RELIGION

IS NO RELIGION AT ALL. I HAVE

SEEN THAT AROUND THE WORLD FOR

YOU HAVE THIS MAN WALKING

AROUND WITH A LONG POLE AND HE

HITS PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO

SLEEP TO MAKE SURE THEY STAY

AWAKE FOR THE SERMON. AND I AM

LOOKING AT THAT GOING, I DON'T

WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT. AND

SO, WITH YOUR CHILDREN, THE

BIBLE TALKS ABOUT THE AGE OF

ACCOUNTABILITY. AND THAT IS

USUALLY 12 OR 13. IF YOU HAVE

TAUGHT THEM PROPERLY, THE

COMMANDMENTS BY THE TIME THAT

THEY ARE 12 OR 13, THEY ARE NOT

RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT

INSTRUCTION. IF THEY DECIDE TO

GO OFF ON THEIR OWN AND MANY

YOUNG PEOPLE IN AN EFFORT TO

MAINTAIN OR BE THEIR OWN PERSON

OR TRY IN SOME WEIRD WAY TO FIT

IN WITH THE GROUP AT SCHOOL OR

THEY DON'T THINK IT IS COOL TO

BE CHRISTIAN ANYMORE, ALL OF

THOSE THINGS, TRUST WHAT YOU

HAVE PUT INTO THEM BECAUSE IF

YOU TRY TO ENFORCE IT , YOU ARE

ACTUALLY GOING TO MAKE THEM

EVEN MORE REBELLIOUS. SO TRY TO

TRUST WHAT YOU HAVE PUT INTO

THEM AND TRUST THE UNFAILING

LOVE OF GOD ALMIGHTY , THAT IF

THEY DEPART, IF THEY GO AWAY,

THEY WILL COME TO THEMSELVES

AND RETURN AND REALIZE WHAT

THEY HAVE DONE AND SAY NO, IT

WAS SO MUCH BETTER WITH GOD,

IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER IN

CHURCH, IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER

THAN ALL OF THESE THINGS. SO

TRUST, PRAY OVER THEM AND YOUR

PRAYERS WILL BE HEARD AND THEY

WILL BE ANSWERED.

> HERE IS A WORD FROM PSALMS,

GIVE YOUR BURDENS TO THE LORD

AND HE WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU.

HE WILL NOT PERMIT THE GODLY TO

SLIP AND FALL. FOLLOW US HERE.

GOD BLESS YOU WE WILL SEE YOU
