HELLO, I'M BRIAN WARREN.

AND I'M LAURA LYNN TYLER

THOMPSON, WELCOME TO TODAY'S

SHOW.

LAURA LYNN, IN TODAY'S

SOCIETY, IT SEEMS LIKE THE

TRUTH HAS BEEN DRESSED UP IN A

LIE'S CLOTHING, HAVE YOU EVER

FALLEN FOR THE OLD SUPER DUPER.

I HAVE NEVER DONE DOPE, BUT

I HAVE BELIEVED A FEW OF THE

LIES, LIKE THAT IT'S MORE

IMPORTANT HOW YOU LOOK THAN WHO

YOU ARE ON THE INSIDE, AND

THAT'S A LIE THAT WE LEARN WHEN

WE'RE VERY YOUNG AND THEN YOU

GET OLDER AND YOU REALIZE WHAT

YOU LOOK LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE,

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOUR LIFE

IS TANKING, WHAT'S ON THE

INSIDE, THAT'S WHAT GOD LOVES

AND THAT'S WHAT HE BUILDS, WHEN

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL ON THE

INSIDE, HAVEN'T YOU EVER KNOWN

SOMEBODY WHO'S LIKE 80 AND THEY

ARE SO RADIANT, I WANT TO LOOK

JUST LIKE THAT, THIS BEAUTY

THAT COMES OUT OF THEM, THAT'S

BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THE TRUTH

AND NOT THE LIE.

WE USED TO LAUGH WHEN WE

WERE KIDS, BEAUTY IS SKIN DEEP

BUT UGLY GOES ALL THE WAY TO

THE BONE, WE LIVE IN A DARK

WORLD, BUT TODAY WE ARE

OFFERING SOME HOPE.

TODAY YOU'LL SEE THE

INCREDIBLE JOURNEY THAT JULIE

WIDNER TOOK TO FIND PEACE IN HER

LIFE AND HOW THE DESIRES OF HER

HEART WERE GRANTED BY GOD, YOU'L

SEE THAT DESPITE THE BROKEN PIES

OF OUR PATHS, THERE IS ALWAYS

HOPE AND A CHANCE TO START OVER.

BUT FIRST CON ARTISTS WHO

ARE TARGETING SENIOR CITIZENS

HAVE FOUND A NEW APPROACH AS

SOCIAL MEDIA HAS GIVEN LIFE TO

A NEW GANG, TODAY YOU'LL SEE

HOW YOU CAN BECOME A VICTIM.

FAMILY MEANS EVERYTHING TO

LEON AND NINA MERRICK, THEY

LOST EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING.

MY DAUGHTER, MY

GRANDCHILDREN WAS THE ONLY

PEOPLE WE HAD.

I AM THE ONLY SURVIVOR FROM

MY FAMILY, SO MY GRANDSON MEANS

A LOT TO ME.

AND HE WAS ON NINA'S MIND

WHEN HE ANSWERED HER PHONE A

FEW WEEKS AGO.

HE SAID, HI, GRANDMA, HOW

ARE YOU DOING?

AND I SAID, WHO AM I TALKING

TO, AND HE SAID, YOUR GRANDSON

JOSHUA, AND I SAID JOSHUA

NEVER CALLS ME GRANDMA, HE

CALLS ME SASHA.

HE TOLD HER HE HAD BEEN IN

GREECE ATTENDING A FRIEND'S

WEDDING.

HE SAID I AM IN BIG TROUBLE

AND PROMISE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO

TELL ME PARENTS.

SO THE STORY GROWS AND

GROWS, THE CALLER WAS

SUPPOSEDLY IN JAIL BECAUSE HE

WRECKED A RENTAL CAR.

I'M IN BIG TROUBLE, THEY

WILL NOT LET ME GO GET OUT OF

THE COUNTRY UNTIL I PAY THE

DAMAGES.

I SAID, SO HOW MUCH ARE THE

DAMAGES, HE SAID 3500

DOLLARS, NINA GAVE THE PHONE TO

HER HUSBAND WHO PRESSED THE

CALLER FOR A NUMBER TO CALL HIM

BACK.

HE SAID, I'LL PAY YOU BACK

EVERY PENNY, IF YOU'RE NOT

GOING TO GIVE ME THE MONEY,

THEY WENT LET ME LEAVE THE

COUNTRY, I SAID, JOSH, IT

DOESN'T SOUND LIKE ME, YOU HAVE

TO GIVE ME A TELEPHONE NUMBER,

OKAY, LET ME THINK AND MAYBE I

HAVE TO TALK TO SOMEBODY, AND

HE DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE ME THE

TELEPHONE NUMBER, AND AT THAT

POINT, WE GOT DISENGAGED,

THAT'S IT, NO MONEY.

LEON THEN CALLED HIS

GRANDSON WHO WAS SAFE IN ISRAEL.

TO BE ABLE TO EXPLOIT

SENIORS AND THEIR LOVE FOR

THEIR GRANDCHILDREN IS ABOUT AS

LOW AS IT COMES.

ERIK FREEDMAN HEADS THE

CONSUMER PROTECTION AGENCY, HE

TOLD ME THE MERRICK'S PHONE CALL

FOLLOWED THE FOUR STEP DANCE TO

THE GRANDPARENT'S SCAM,

ESTABLISH CREDIBILITY,

EMERGENCY AND SECRECY, THEN

EXPLOIT GRANDPARENT'S NATURAL

DESIRE TO HELP THEIR

GRANDCHILDREN.

WE HAVE HEARD FROM SENIORS

WHO HAVE WIRED SEVERAL THOUSAND

DOLLARS, 3000, 3800

DOLLARS TO THESE CROOKS.

THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA IS

ALSO MAKING IT EASIER FOR

CROOKS TO GET INFORMATION ON A

POSSIBLE TARGET LIKE HERE ON

FACE BOOK, MILLIONS COME TO

POST PICTURES AND PERSONAL

INFORMATION, ON A HAND OF A

CROOK, THAT COULD BE CRUCIAL TO

A GRANDPARENT WHO ISN'T LIKELY

TO HAVE A FACE BOOK PAGE.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE DO THEY

GET THIS INFORMATION.

I MEAN, THAT I HAVE A GRANDSON

WHOSE NAME IS JOSHUA.

THIS IS THE MOST DESPICABLE

TYPE OF CONSUMER FRAUD THAT WE

HAVE SEEN IN THIS OFFICE, IT'S

JUST ONE DROP SHORT OF VIOLENT

CRIME.

GRANDPARENTS AREN'T THE ONLY

ONES WHO NEED TO BE CAREFUL,

FREEDMAN ENCOURAGES ALL

CONSUMERS, NEVER RUSH TO WIRE

MONEY ANYWHERE UNLESS YOU KNOW

FOR SURE WHO WILL GET IT.

TYPICALLY WIRING MONEY IS NO

DIFFERENT THAN HANDING CASH TO

SOMEONE ONCE THEY RUN AWAY, THE

MONEY IS GONE.

AND THE MERRICKS SHARE

THEIR OWN ADVICE AFTER ALMOST

BECOMING A VICTIM.

HE ANSWERS FOR EVERYTHING,

IT IS IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO

ASK QUESTIONS, PERSONAL

QUESTIONS TO MAKE SURE THAT

THIS IS THEIR LOVES ONES.

EFREM GRAHAM, C B M NEWS,

MONTGOMERY MARYLAND.

WOW, LAURA LYNN, IT BOTHERS

ME WHEN I SAY THAT, WE LIVE IN

A WORLD WHERE WE TAKE ADVANTAGE

OF THE VULNERABLE, MAKE SURE

YOU DO YOUR CHECK, DO ALL THE

DIAGNOSTIC, ASK AND ASK, DO

YOUR CHECKS.

YOU KNOW, BRIAN, YOU JUST

HOPE THAT EVERYBODY IS KIND,

YOU HOPE THAT EVERYONE'S

AUTHENTIC, WE SEE IT IN THE

NEWS EVERY SINGLE DAY, THERE

ARE SOME HEART HEARTED, MEAN

COLD PEOPLE OUT THERE, THEY

NEED JESUS AND THEY WOULDN'T BE

LIKE THAT ANYMORE, LIFE IS

GIVING HOPE AND A DIRECTION, UP

NEXT.

DON'T TOUCH ME, I'M SICK AND

TIRED.

A MAN GOES TO WORK, A MAN

COMES HOME, A MAN DRINKS, A MAN

AND WOMAN FIGHT.

THERE WAS A LOT OF FIGHTING

THAT WE SAW WHEN WE WERE

CHILDREN.

WELL, EVERYONE WEEKEND, WE'D GO

CAMPING, SOMETIMES THE ADULTS

WOULD GO INTO TOWN AND LEAVE US

WITH THE FAMILIES LIVED CLOSER,

IT WAS THEIR OLDER TEENAGE SON

THAT MOLESTED ME WHEN I WAS

ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE, IT

CONTINUED AND WHAT HE HAD SAID

TO GET ME NOT TO TELL WAS, YOU

KNOW HOW YOUR DAD IS, IF HE

FOUND OUT, YOU KNOW WHAT HE'S

GOING TO DO TO YOU, THAT'S WHAT

HE HAD TOLD ME.

MY PARENTS GOT DIVORCED WHEN I

WAS ABOUT 8, WHEN I WAS 9, I

STARTED SMOKING CIGARETTES AND

BY 11, I WAS DABBLING INTO

DRUGS, I JUST SPIRALED DOWN, I

WAS DRINKING AND DOING ACID, I

TRIED CRYSTAL METH, COKE, AND?

MY MIND, I WOULD LIVE TO DIE, I

JUST DIDN'T CARE, I JUST HURT

SO BAD BECAUSE THE MOLESTATION

WHEN I WAS YOUNGER THAT I JUST

DIDN'T FEEL WORTHY IN A SENSE.

JULIE RAN TO THE STREETS

BROKEN.

SHE ENDED UP WITH TWO KIDS FROM

FAILED RELATIONSHIPS.

I ENDED UP HOMELESS, LOST

ALL MY STUFF, ENDED UP ON THE

STREETS WITH THE TWO KIDS AND

DURING THAT TIME, I WAS

DRINKING AND DOING WHATEVER.

I JUST DIDN'T CARE, YOU KNOW, I

JUST THOUGHT, IF I DIE, MY KIDS

WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER.

ON THE EDGE OF SUICIDE, A

MAN ON THE STREET HANDED JULIE

A BIBLE.

WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER, WE

WENT TO CATHOLIC CHURCH SO WE

WEREN'T ALLOWED TO HAVE BIBLES

SO HERE'S MY FIRST BIBLE, I

SAID, WOW, THIS IS GREAT, AND

EVENTUALLY, READING THE WORD, I

CAME TO THIS POINT WHERE I WAS

GOING TO DIE OR LIVE, AND FROM

READING THE BIBLE, I MADE A

DECISION TO LIVE.

MY SECOND CHILD, SHE WOKE ME

UP, SHE SAYS, GOD TALKED TO ME,

I NEVER DISCUSSED GOD WITH HER,

AND SHE SAYS, HE TALKED TO ME

AND MOMMA, AND HE SAYS

EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE

ALRIGHT, AND SO I WAS (CRYING).

WHEN YOU BEAT YOURSELF UP SO

MUCH AND YOU HAVE THIS LITTLE

ONE TELL YOU THAT, AND YOU'RE

JUST LOOKING FOR HELP, YOU

KNOW, A MENTAL ACT, SO I GOT IT

TOGETHER AND I GOT OFF THE

STREETS.

I WAS A SINGLE MOM FOR SO LONG

AND I GUESS I WAS SEEKING OUT

THIS FATHER FIGURE FOR THE

KIDS, I GUESS IT WAS IN MY MIND.

IT FELT LIKE THEY WERE MISSING

SOMETHING, I COULDN'T DO

ENOUGH, I FELT I NEEDED A

PROTECTOR, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT

MAKES SENSE.

WANTING A PROTECTOR, JULIE

MARRIED AND DELIVERED HER THIRD

CHILD.

THE MAN BECAME A MONSTER AND

HER REALITY BECAME A NIGHTMARE.

HE PUSHED ME AWAY FROM

CHRISTIANITY, I ALLOWED HIM TO.

HE DESTROYED MY FAMILY.

HE WAS SO ABUSIVE.

I FELT LIKE A PRISONER.

ME AND THE KIDS WERE SLEEPING

IN MY ROOM AND HE HAD JUST

GOTTEN OFF AND HE WAS LEAVING

AGAIN AND WE WERE SCARED AND WE

WERE ALL HUDDLED UP IN MY

BEDROOM, HE COMES BANGING ON

THE HOUSE, AND THE KIDS WERE

LIKE, DON'T ANSWER, DON'T

ANSWER, AND I SAID I HAVE TO,

HE'S NOT GOING TO GO AWAY, I

ANSWERED THE DOOR AND HE HAS A

KNIFE IN HIS HANDS AND HE HAD

BLOOD AND APPARENTLY JUST

STABBED SOMEONE AND HE WANTED

ME TO GIVE HIM A RIDE OUT OF

TOWN AND I DIDN'T WANT TO, AND

I STARTED DRIVING AND HE WAS IN

AND OUT AND HE'D COME TO, WAKE

UP, AND HE'D GET REALLY ANGRY

AND I SAID, PLEASE, JUST PUT

THE KNIFE DOWN, JUST, GOD, IN

MY HEAD, JUST, GOD, PLEASE,

PROTECT US, AND I MADE IT

PROBABLY ABOUT 30 MINUTES OUT

OF TOWN AND I FINALLY WAS ABLE

TO SAY, LISTEN, I'M ALMOST OUT

OF GAS, I HAVE TO GET BACK TO

THE KIDS, YOU KNOW THEY'RE

PROBABLY SCARED, HE DIDN'T CARE

ABOUT ANY OF THAT, HE GOT OUT

OF THE CAR AND I STARTED CRYING

AND I'M DRIVING AS FAST AS I

CAN, AND I'M THINKING, HE'S

STILL BEHIND ME, I GOT A CALL

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT HE'S

STILL IN THE CAR, HE WENT INTO

A TREE AND HE DIED, IT WAS ME

OR HIM THAT NIGHT AND I WAS

GLAD I WAS THERE FOR MY BABIES.

JULIE STARTED TO PICK UP THE

PIECES OF HER BROKEN LIFE AND

YEARS LATER, JULIE MET BRIAN.

I SAW IN HIM A COMMON BOND,

A COMMON DESIRE TO HAVE A GOOD

LIFE AND TO HAVE A FAMILY AND

EVERYTHING I DREAMED ABOUT, YOU

KNOW, THAT I SOUGHT AFTER IN

THE WRONG PEOPLE.

BOTH BRIAN AND JULIE WANTED

TO START THEIR FAMILY, SO THEY

MARRIED.

I FOUND A BIBLE IN MY HOUSE

AND I STARTED PICKING IT UP AND

STARTED READING AND I MEAN, I

THINK I WAS READING ALMOST

DAILY, TRYING TO GET THE WORD

IN AND WE DECIDED TO DRIVE DOWN

TO TENNESSEE TO VISIT MY DAD

AND MY FAMILY, WE WENT TO

CHURCH AND WHEN WE WENT THERE,

IT FELT LIKE THE SERMON WAS

SPEAKING AT US AND WE WANTED TO

BOTH GET UP AND GIVE OUR LIVES

BUT WE WERE NERVOUS AND SCARED

BECAUSE IT WAS ALL NEW AGAIN.

MOVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT,

JULIE AND BRIAN RETURNED TO

THAT CHURCH.

AND SINCE WE GOT TO CHURCH,

WE BOTH HAD THE CALLING, WE

WENT UP AT THE SAME TIME AND

GAVE OUR LIVES TO THE LORD AND

YOU KNOW STARTED OVER.

GOING THROUGH WHAT I DID, IT'S

LIKE YOU ALWAYS HAVE THIS

WEIGHT ON YOUR BACK AND YOUR

LIFE IS RESTRICTED.

YOU JUST HAVE NO FREEDOM AND I

CAN TELL YOU WHEN I MADE THE

DECISION THAT LITERALLY

PHYSICALLY I JUST -- THIS PEACE

CAME OVER ME, YOU KNOW, IT'S

AMAZING, I THANK GOD THAT I CAN

LOVE.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT JULIE, YOU

RECOGNIZE THAT THERE ARE A LOT

OF PEOPLE THAT ARE LIVING IN

FEAR, ALL EVIDENCE APPEARING

REAL BECAUSE WHAT YOU SAW IS

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER AT AN

EARLY AGE, THAT TRAUMA AS FAR

AS THE RAPE, AND THERE ARE MANY

PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING THROUGH

THAT, SOME OF THOSE THAT I'M

TALKING TO RIGHT NOW BUT ONE

WRONG DOESN'T LEAD TO ANOTHER

WRONG, YOU NOTICE THAT HOW

WANTED TO USE A PERMANENT

SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM, SHE

WANTED TO KILL HERSELF, IT WAS

GOD COMING INTO HER LIFE.

SO OFTEN WHEN WE GET WHAT WE

WANT, WE END UP DROPPING GOD

BECAUSE SHE WANTED A PROTECTOR,

THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT THAT AS

WELL, ABOUT BEING ALONE, IT'S

BEEN SAID THAT WE ARE BORN

ALONE AND DIE ALONE AND

THEREFORE GOD IS ALWAYS THERE

WITH US IN THE PROCESS, THE

BIBLE SAYS IN LUKE, CHAPTER 18,

SHE WENT TO A JUDGE AND SHE

SAID, GIVE ME JUSTICE, THE

JUDGE SAID, I DON'T FEAR GOD OR

MAN, THIS WOMAN, I BELIEVE THE

ONLY REASON THIS IS IN THE

BIBLE IS BECAUSE GOD WANTS US

TO BE PERSISTENT AND COME AFTER

HIM, NOT LOOKING FOR A MAN OR A

WOMAN TO COMPLETE US, WE ARE

COMPLETE IN CHRIST JESUS, I AM

GLAD THEY WENT TO A CHURCH WITH

THE TATTOOS, THE PIERCING,

EVERYTHING ELSE, IF THAT'S YOU

RIGHT NOW AND HAVE ALL THE

SLEEVES AND EVERYTHING, KNOW

THAT GOD LOVES YOU AND THERE IS

A PLACE FOR YOU, TODAY YOU HAVE

TO COME INTO THAT REALITY THAT

YOU'RE NOT ALONE, YOU'RE NOT BE

YOURSELF AND GOD HAS A PERFECT

PLAN FOR YOU, I KNOW THE PLANS,

IT'S PEACE.

YOU KNOW, BRIAN, WHEN YOU

WERE READING THAT STORY ABOUT

THE PERSISTENT WIDOW, THE WORD

OF GOD SAYS I PRESS TOWARDS THE

MARK, I PUSH UP, I TENACIOUSLY

PURSUE THE DESTINY THAT GOD HAS

FOR ME, NO MATTER WHAT YOUR

PAST WAS, GOD HAS CREATED YOU

FOR THE FUTURE, FOR YOUR

PURPOSE, TODAY YOU CAN PUT ALL

THAT STUFF ASIDE, YOU CAN

FORGIVE EVERYONE WHO'S HURT YOU

IN THE PAST, PUT ALL THE

FAILURES BEHIND YOU AND YOU CAN

PRESS TOWARDS THE MARK OF THE

HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN YOUR

LIFE.

AMEN, WE HAVE SOME

LITERATURE I WOULD LOVE TO GET

INTO YOUR HANDS, THIS ONE IS

CALLED FREE INDEED, AND I

REALLY BELIEVE GOD IS SAYING

TODAY IS YOUR BEST DAY, I DON'T

KNOW WHO THIS IS BUT I NEED YOU

TO CALL US BECAUSE I'M GOING TO

PRAY AND LEAD YOU IN A PRAYER,

YOU'VE BEEN HIDING THE TATTOOS

AND THE PIERCED EARS AND THE

BLUE HAIR AND ALL OF THOSE

OTHER THINGS, GOD SAYS I LOVE

YOU AND NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO,

THAT WILL NOT CHANGE BECAUSE I

CREATED YOU.

LET'S CRY OUT TO GOD RIGHT NOW,

WHY DON'T YOU JUST BALL YOUR

HANDS UP, WHY DON'T YOU DO THAT

BECAUSE THAT'S HOW YOU FEEL A

LOT OF TIMES, I HAVE TO PROTECT

MYSELF FROM THIS MONSTER, GOD,

I RECOGNIZE ONE WRONG DOES NOT

MAKE ANOTHER WRONG, IT DOESN'T

LEAD TO ANOTHER WRONG, GOD,

WOULD YOU SAVE ME, EVEN ME, I

NEED YOU, I'M A SINNER, BUT I

OPEN UP MY HEART NOW AND

RECEIVE YOU, JESUS CHRIST, AS

MY SAVIOR, I TURN FOR MY SIN

AND MYSELF AND I TURN TO YOU,

THANK YOU THAT I'M NOT ALONE,

MAKE ME INTO YOUR SON, YOUR

DAUGHTER, WHAT YOU WANT ME TO

BE IN JESUS SAME, NOW OPEN UP

YOUR HANDS, IF YOU'VE OPENED UP

YOUR HANDS.

IF YOU PRAYED THAT PRAYER

FOR BRIAN, CALL US AT

1-855-759-0700, MINISTRY

PARTNERS ARE STANDING BY.

TOO OFTEN, WE CARRY BAGGAGE

FROM OUR PAST, YOU KNOW WHAT

IT'S LIKE, IT AFFECTS

EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE IN OUR

LIVES, IT'S ALWAYS THERE

WEIGHING US DOWN AND KEEPING US

FROM ACHIEVING TRUE HAPPINESS,

BUT YOU KNOW, DO YOU KNOW GOD

NEVER MEANT FOR US TO BE

TRAPPED IN THE PAST, YOU CAN BE

FREE OF YOUR BAGGAGE, LEARN HOW

GOD'S FORGIVENESS LEADS TO

CHANGED LIVES AND NEW

BEGINNINGS, CALL THE 700 CLUB.

DO YOU EVER WONDER WHAT IS

HAPPENING IN THE WORLD, HAVE

YOU NOTICED IT'S GETTING WORSE

AND WORSE OUT THERE.

THERE ARE VOICES AND INFLUENCE

THAT ENDEAVOR TO STEER US INTO

MORE WICKEDNESS, STANDING UP

FOR WHAT'S RIGHT ISN'T EASY,

THERE ARE MOCKERS OF

RIGHTEOUSNESS WHO WANT TO DEFY

GOD.

IN OUR HOME, WE HAVE PLACED ALL

LOCKS ON INTERNET THAT IS

INAPPROPRIATE AND DON'T THINK

WE HAVEN'T HEARD OF THE

COMPLAINTS FROM OUR KIDS ABOUT

HOW THEIR FRIENDS ARE WATCHING

PROGRAMS AND HOW OLD FASHIONED

WE ARE, THAT GETS ME WHERE IT

HURTS, IT TAKES A LOT TO STAND

UP TO THE LIES OF THIS AGE, BUT

I LOVE MY KIDS TOO MUCH TO BE

SWAYED OR MANIPULATED BY THEIR

CURRENT LACK OF UNDERSTANDING.

THERE ARE SO MANY LIES OUT

THERE, LIES THAT SAY IT'S OKAY

TO INDULGE IN A SEXUALLY

IMMORAL LIFESTYLE, TO BE

VIOLENT, TO LACK INTEGRITY, TO

LET DRUGS BE YOUR CRUTCH AND

YOUR COMFORT ZONE, ALL OF THIS

WILL LEAD TO NOTHING BUT PAIN

IN OUR LIVES, THE ROAD TO

MISERY IS PAVED WITH GOOD TIMES

AND AT THE END OF IT ALL, IT

CAN BE A DISASTER BUT WHEN WE

MAKE A CHOICE TO DO THE RIGHT

THING, YOU CAN BET WE ARE GOING

TO HAVE OPPOSITION, NOW AM I

TRYING TO WIN THE FAVOR OF MEN

OR OF GOD, DO I SEEK TO PLEASE

MEN, IF I WERE STILL SEEKING

POPULARITY WITH MEN, I SHOULD

NOT A BOND SERVANT OF CHRIST,

JESUS HIMSELF WARNED US THAT

FOLLOWING HIM WOULD BE A VERY

DIFFICULT PATH, IN JOHN 518, HE

SAYS IF THE WORLD HATES YOU,

BEAR IN MIND, IT HATED ME

FIRST, IF IT'S REAL IMPORTANT

THAT EVERYONE LIKES YOU AND

DOUGH DON'T APPEAR TO HAVE ANY

DIFFERENCES IN ANYONE, YOU

WON'T BE A GREAT INFLUENCER,

GOD WANTS TO MAKE YOUR LIFE

STAND OUT, SOME OF THE

SIGNIFICANT LEADERS HAVE STOOD

OUT IN THEIR BELIEFS, ALBERT

SIGN STEIN SAID GREAT SPIRITS

HAVE FOUND VIOLENT OPPOSITION

FROM MEDIOCRE MINDS, THAT MEANS

THE MEDIOCRE MINDS CANNOT

UNDERSTAND IT WHEN A MAN DOES

NOT THOUGHTLESSLY SUBMIT TO

HEREDITARY PREJUDICES BUT

COURAGEOUSLY USES HIS

INTELLIGENCE AND FULFILLS THE

DUTY TO EXPRESS THE RESULTS OF

HIS THOUGHTS IN CLEAR FORM.

WHAT HE'S SAYING IS SOME PEOPLE

WILL NOT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU

JUST DON'T GO WITH THE FLOW, HE

CALLED THEM MEDIOCRE MINDS, IT

TAKES INCREDIBLE STRENGTH, I'M

TALKING COURAGEOUS STRENGTH TO

LIVE A LIFE THAT TENACIOUSLY

PURSUES THAT DOESN'T MEET THE

STATUS QUO OF YOUR GENERATION,

GOD WILL EMPOWER AND ANOINT AND

GRACE THE POWER TO FOLLOW THAT,

YOU DON'T DO THAT ALONE,

ELEANOR ROOSEVELT SAID, NO ONE

CAN MAKE YOU FEAR INFERIOR

WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT, HE WANTS

YOU TO BE EITHER HOT ON FIRE

FOR HIM OR JUST BE COLD BECAUSE

BEING A MEDIOCRE CHRISTIAN IS

NOT POWERFUL AND WON'T CHANGE

THE WORLD.

MAKE A DECISION TO STAND UP AND

STAND OUT.

AMEN.

AND LAURA LYNN, SHE IS SO RIGHT

WITH THAT, A LOT OF YOU SAID

HOW DO YOU DO THAT AS WELL,

IT'S NOT A FORMULA BUT I

BELIEVE IT IS TRULY A PATTERN

THAT GOD GIVES US BUT WHAT YOU

HAVE TO DO IS NOT JUST COME TO

CHRIST AND SAY, JESUS, I'M

YOURS AND I'LL GO WHERE YOU

WANT ME TO GO BUT IT'S

FOLLOWING THE SPIRIT OF TRUE,

JOHN SAID IN JOHN, CHAPTER 14,

WHEN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES,

IT WILL LEAD YOU TO ALL TRUTH,

THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN

RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE

BECAUSE GOD OF THIS WORLD HAS

BEEN CAST OUT, YOU BECOME A

JUNIOR PARTNER, DO IT EVERY DAY

AND WATCH GOD CHANGE YOUR

WORLD, FATHER, BLESS YOUR KIDS,

DO A GREAT WORK TODAY, MAY THEY

RECEIVE THE HOLY GHOST.
