HELLO, I'M BRIAN WARREN.
AND I'M LAURA LYNN TYLER
THOMPSON, WELCOME TO THE SHOW.
LAURA LYNN, GRACE IS
SOMETHING THAT WE REALLY
CELEBRATE HERE, ESPECIALLY WITH
THE 700 CLUB CANADA, GRACE IS
GOD'S RICHES AT CHRIST'S
EXPENSE, IS THERE A TIME THAT
YOU KNEW THAT YOU NEEDED GRACE,
SAVING GRACE?
I DON'T THINK THERE'S A DAY
THAT I DON'T NEED IT BECAUSE I
WOULDN'T BE HERE IF I DIDN'T
HAVE A GREAT REVELATION OF
GOD'S GRACE, THERE WERE TIMES
IN MY LIFE THAT WERE VERY
BROKEN, I WAS DEALING WITH A
LOT OF FAILURE AND HURT FROM
OTHER PEOPLE, AND GOD'S GRACE
CAME IN AND SHOWED ME THAT I
WAS NOT MY PAST, I WAS NOT, YOU
KNOW, ALL OF THOSE MISTAKES, IT
WAS HIS GRACE, IT WAS HIS
UNBELIEVABLE GRACE THAT HAD SET
ME FREE, SO I WALK IN THAT
TODAY.
AND YOU KNOW, THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT WE BELIEVE A LOT
OF AND TODAY YOU'LL SEE THE
UNBELIEVABLE POWER THAT GRACE
CAN HAVE ON SOMEONE'S LIFE,
GRACIA BERNUM OPENS UP
ABOUT HER ABDUCTION AND HER
HEROING ESCAPE FROM CAPTURE,
SHE'S DISCUSSED THAT SHE WAS
ABLE TO MOVE ON FROM THE TEN
YEARS SINCE THAT UNBELIEVABLE
ORDEAL.
TODD GOBELL'S LIFE WAS
SPIRALING OUT OF CONTROL AND
TODAY HE WILL EXPLAIN HOW GOD
WAS ABLE TO FINALLY HEAL HIM.
FIRST, GRACIA BERNUM
OPENS UP ABOUT HER YEAR IN
CAPTIVITY.
IT BECAME ONE OF THE YEAR'S
BIGGEST STORIES,
MARTIN AND GRACIA BERNUM,
HEY WERE HELD CAPTIVE
FROM A MUSLIM RADICAL
GROUP, THE COUPLE HAD BEEN
CELEBRATING THEIR 18TH WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY IN A RESORT IN
PALAUAN WHEN TERRORISTS
KIDNAPPED THEM AND MORE THAN A
DOZEN OTHERS.
RIGHT NOW, WE'RE PASSING BY
THE AREA WHERE THEY FIRST
BROUGHT MARTIN AND GRACIA
BERNUM WHEN THEY WERE KIDNAPPED
BACK IN 2001, THEY SPENT JUST
OVER A YEAR IN THESE JUNGLES,
CONSTANTLY ON THE RUN, NOT
KNOWING WHERE THEIR NEXT MEAL
WOULD BE COMING FROM AND
DEPENDED UPON GOD FOR THEIR
CONSTANT SURVIVAL.
WE ASKED GOD FOR EVERYTHING
WE NEEDED, IF WE NEEDED A DRINK
OF WATER, I ASKED GOD FOR A
DRINK OF WATER AND WHEN WE CAME
TO A STREAM, I DRANK THE WATER,
IT DIDN'T MATTER THAT IT WAS
DIRTY, IT WAS WATER AND GOD HAD
PROVIDED IT FOR US.
WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER MOST
ABOUT THAT DAY?
I REMEMBER THAT WE HADN'T
EATEN FOR -- WE WERE GOING ON
OUR 10TH DAY, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU
COULD LIVE FOR 10 DAYS WITHOUT
FOOD, BUT WE HAD SALT AND WE
HAD WATER, WE WOULD EAT LITTLE
LEAVES FROM CERTAIN PLANTS THAT
WE WOULD PASS BY, SO WE WERE
WEAK AND EXHAUSTED, I TOLD
MARTIN I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH
LONGER I CAN DO THIS, I ALWAYS
SAID THAT TO HIM, AND HE SAID,
YOU KNOW, GRACIA, I THINK
WE'RE GOING TO GET OUT OF HERE,
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN.
ABOUT NOON ON JUNE 7, 2002,
SHOTS RANG OUT AS THE
PHILIPPINES MILITARY ATTEMPTED
TO RESCUE MARTIN AND GRACIA
FROM THEIR YEARLONG CAPTIVITY.
I IMMEDIATELY WAS SHOT IN
THE LEG BEFORE WE GOT TO THE
GROUND, AND I SLID DOWN THE
HILL AND CAME TO REST BESIDE
MARTIN AND HE WAS BLEEDING FROM
HIS CHEST AND THEY SAW I WAS
ALIVE AND CAME AND STARTED
DRAGGING ME UP THE HILL AND I
LOOKED BACK AT MARTIN AND HE
WAS WHITE, AND THAT'S WHEN I
KNEW HE WAS DEAD.
AND THEY KIND OF BANDAGED ME UP
AT THE TOP OF THE HILL AND
CALLED A HELICOPTER AND IT CAME
AND LIFTED ME RIGHT OUT OF
THERE.
YEAH.
BEFORE THEIR YEAR IN
CAPTIVITY, MARTIN WAS A BUSY
PILOT FOR NEW TRIBES MISSION
WHILE GRACIA SUPPORTED HIM AND
HELPED RAISE THEIR THREE
CHILDREN IN THE PHILIPPINES.
THIS IS WHERE THE BURNUMS
LIVED WHILE THEY WERE
MISSIONARIES, MANY OF THEM HAVE
FOND MEMORIES OF THEIR TIMES
WITH MARTIN AND GRACIA.
SHE WAS THE ONE WHO TAUGHT
ME HOW TO MAKE PIZZA, AND WE
WOULD MAKE DIFFERENT TOPICS,
GRACIA, I STILL LOVE TO MAKE
PIZZA, IT'S BECAUSE OF YOU.
THE BEST PILOT THAT I'VE
EVER SEEN.
MARTIN OFTEN FLEW THE DOCTOR
TO REMOTE VILLAGES.
TO ME, MARTIN AND GRACIA
REFLECT GOD, WHY MARTIN AND
GRACIA, WHY NOT THEM?
BECAUSE I THINK THE PEOPLE THAT
ABDUCTED, IF THEY HAD SEEN WHAT
CHRISTIANS OUGHT TO BE.
GRACIA, THEY TOOK SO MUCH
FROM YOU, YOUR HUSBAND, A YEAR
OF YOUR LIFE, HOW DO YOU FIND
FORGIVENESS?
I THINK GOD CAME AND DID
SOMETHING IN MY HEART AND I
ASKED HIM, WOULD YOU BUILD
FORGIVENESS IN MY LIFE, WOULD
YOU HELP ME START TO LOVE THESE
GUYS, AND HE DID IT.
TODAY, SEVERAL MEMBERS HAVE
COME TO KNOW THE LORD BECAUSE
GRACIA CHOSE TO FORGIVE AND
BEGAN THE MARTIN AND GRACIA
BERNUM FOUNDATION TO HELP
REACH MUSLIMS IN THE
PHILIPPINES.
SOME OF THE GUYS THAT HELD
US HOSTAGE GOT A HOLD OF THINGS
THAT WE PRINTED AND IT IMPACTED
THEIR LIVES AND GOD SOMEHOW
USED IT AND SO FAR, FOUR OF
THEM HAVE COME TO KNOW THE LORD.
GRACIA WROTE THE NEW YORK
TIMES BEST SELLER, IN THE
PRESENCE OF MY ENEMIES AND A
FOLLOW-UP TO FLY AGAIN, SHE'S
ALSO A MUCH SOUGHT AFTER
SPEAKER WHOSE STORY OF GOD'S
GRACE UNDER TRIAL RESONATES
WITH EVERYONE.
AND THEY JUST WANT TO HUG ME
AND SAY, WE PRAYED FOR YOU AND
I NEVER GET TIRED OF HEARING
THAT.
TODAY, GRACIA'S YOUNGEST SON
ZACK STUDIES MUSIC IN BIBLE
SCHOOL IN KANSAS CITY, THE SAME
SCHOOL WHERE HIS PARENTS MET
AND MARRIED, HER OLDER SON JEFF
IS A PILOT SERVING IN AFRICA.
MY [INAUDIBLE0, YAY, AND
THE CHILDREN ARE GROWN AND
THEY'RE FINE AND THEY LOVE THE
LORD, SO THE REST OF WHAT
HAPPENS TO ME IS JUST ICING ON
THE CAKE.
GRACIA SAYS JUST LIKE THE
TITLE OF HER SECOND BOOK, SHE
IS LEARNING TO FLY AGAIN.
IT WOULD BE AWFUL IF I HAD
GONE THROUGH THIS HORRIBLE
THING AND COME OUT ON THE OTHER
END THINKING I HAD ANYTHING TO
DO WITH IT, SO IF I'M FLYING
TODAY, IT'S BECAUSE OF GOD'S
GOODNESS IN MY LIFE.
WENDY GRIFFITH, CBN NEWS,
KANSAS.
WOW, IT'S AMAZING HOW GOD'S
GRACE BROUGHT GRACIA OUT OF
THAT AS WELL AND OUR PRAYERS
ARE WITH HER BECAUSE MARTIN
DIDN'T MAKE IT, BUT THE
BEAUTIFUL THING IS GOD SHOWED
GREAT FRUIT OUT OF THAT, UNLESS
A SEED FALLS TO THE GROUND AND
DIES, IT [INAUDIBLE] TO BRING
DOWN MUCH FRUIT, THE CAPTORS
WERE THE RESULT OF THAT.
AMAZING THAT SHE COULD HAVE
FORGIVENESS IN HER HEART.
UP NEXT, TODD DOBELL
DISCUSSES WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO
BE A PIMP.
AS A LITTLE BOY, TODD
GOBELL WAS LIKE MOST CHILDREN,
PLAYFUL AND HAPPY, ALL OF THAT
CHANGED WHEN HE WAS PUT IN
DAYCARE.
I WAS ABUSED FOR QUITE SOME
TIME AT A KIND OF A DAYCARE
CENTER TYPE OF PLACE, AND I
KNEW THAT WAS WRONG, DIDN'T
KNOW WHY EXACTLY, OBVIOUSLY AT
THAT AGE, I WAS A LITTLE TOO
YOUNG TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ANY OF
THAT MEANT BUT I KNEW SOMETHING
WAS WRONG.
THE WOMAN WHO ABUSED TODD
ALSO THREATENED HIM.
SHE TOLD ME IF I
WASN'T GOING TO GO ALONG WITH
THIS, SHE WOULD TELL MY
PARENTS, AND IT WAS ONE OF THE
MOST AMAZING CONS OF ALL TIMES,
I THOUGHT I WOULD BE IN BIG
TROUBLE IF MY PARENTS FOUND OUT
WHAT WAS HAPPENING.
THE ABUSE CONTINUED FOR OVER
A YEAR.
I ENDED UP FEELING UNSURE
ABOUT SEX STUFF AND I DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG AND RIGHT,
I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS OKAY TO
THINK THOSE THOUGHTS TO BE
SEXUALLY ATTRACTED TO SOMEBODY
OR HAVE THOSE FIRST INITIAL
SEXUAL THOUGHTS, GUILT AND
SHAME KIND OF CAME UP, IT FELT
MAYBE LIKE IT WAS SOMETHING
THAT WASN'T OKAY.
IN HIGH SCHOOL, THOSE
FEELINGS TURNED TO RAGE.
I BEGAN FIGHTING IN SCHOOL,
GETTING IN TROUBLE FOR PHYSICAL
FIGHTS.
I WAS IN A WHOLE LOT OF TROUBLE.
HE STARTED EXPERIMENTING
WITH DRUGS AND ALCOHOL.
THE SECOND THAT I HAD TASTED
ALCOHOL, I WAS -- I DIDN'T KNOW
AT THE TIME I WAS AN ALCOHOLIC,
FROM THE FIRST SIP, IT HAD ME
AND THAT WAS JUST THE ULTIMATE
THING TO NUMB MY EMOTIONS AND
FEELINGS AND BY THE TIME I WAS
THROUGH HALF MY LEHMAN YEAR IN
HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS EXPELLED
FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRIBUTES, I
WASN'T IN SCHOOL AT 15 AND I
CLUNG TO DRUGS AND ALCOHOL.
AT 16, TODD MADE A HIGH
SCHOOL SENIOR WHO WAS MARKETING
HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS A DAY AS A
PIMP.
HE WOULD COME WITH A BRIGHT
NEW MOTORCYCLE, I REACHED OUT
TO HIM AND WOULD INSTANTLY
BECAME BEST FRIENDS.
TODD QUICKLY LEARNED HOW TO
LURE WOMEN INTO PROSTITUTION
ALL MENTAL MANIPULATION,
ESSENTIALLY, YOU HAVE TO TRUST
ME, I'M YOUR MAN BUT ALSO YOUR
MANAGER AND I CAN SEE PAST THIS
CURB AND THE ROAD YOU CAN'T
SEE, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
TRUST ME ON THAT.
I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT FOR
WOMEN, SO IT WAS THIS WEIRD
PARADOX WHERE WE CONSIDERED
THEM NAMES THAT I WOULDN'T SAY
ON CAMERA.
ENFORCEMENT WAS THE PRIMARY
RESPONSIBILITY, HIS GIRLS HAD
TO PERFORM AND HIS CUSTOMERS
HAD TO PAY.
ONE DAY, A CUSTOMER REFUSED
PAYMENT.
I WENT INTO A BLIND RAGE, IF
YOU WILL, AND I GRABBED A
HATCHET, A MACHETE TYPE OF
THING AND I WENT AHEAD AND WENT
BACK TO HIS HOUSE AND I
ATTACKED THE MAN AND BEGAN TO
CHOP HIM UP WITH THE AXE, AT
THAT POINT IN TIME, I WAS
ARRESTED AND CHARGED WITH
ATTEMPTED, ROBBERY IN THE FIRST
DEGREE BECAUSE I WAS DEMANDING
MONEY INSIDE OF THE GUY'S HOME.
HE WAS SENTENCED TO 4 YEARS
AT A CORRECTIONAL FACILITY,
AFTER HE SERVED HIS SENTENCE,
HE WASTED NO TIME REVIVING HIS
CRIMINAL SKILLS, HE COMMITTED A
STRING OF VIOLENT CRIMES AND
WAS IN PRISON FOR 9 YEARS,
AFTER HE LEFT, HE TRIED TO
START A NEW FRESH START.
HE SAID, WHAT YOU'RE DOING
IS ON THE TITANIC AND THE SHIP
IS SINKING AND YOU'RE
REARRANGING THE DECK CHAIRS,
YOU'RE STILL GOING DOWN, THAT'S
A LITTLE POWERFUL AND FOR SOME
REASON, THAT ANALOGY HIT HOME
WITH ME, HE TOOK ME OUT TO THE
MOUNTAINS THAT ARE THE THREE
SISTERS THAT YOU CAN SEE FROM
BEND AND HE HAD ME WALK OUT
INTO THE FIELD AND HE SAID, YOU
SEE HOSE MOUNTAINS HOW THEY'RE
WHITE COVERING SNOW, THAT'S HOW
GOD LOOKS AT YOU, REGARDLESS OF
WHAT YOU'VE DONE, WHAT MOVED ME
SO MUCH WAS THE MAJOR CONTRAST
BETWEEN WHAT I FELT INSIDE ME
AND MY INSIDES, I FELT LIKE IF
YOU COULD RIP OPEN MY INSIDES,
IT'S LIKE THOSE SMOKING
COMMERCIALS, I FELT SO DIRTY
AND DECREPIT INSIDE, LOOKING AT
THAT MOUNTAIN, IT WAS THIS
CONTRAST, I THOUGHT, THAT'S THE
OPPOSITE OF WHAT I AM, THE
POLAR OPPOSITE.
TO THINK THAT GOD LOOKS AT ME
LIKE THAT, THAT SEEMS
IMPOSSIBLE BUT SUPER PROFOUND,
AND AT THE TIME, IT WAS SO
AMAZING.
HE LED ME THROUGH THE SINNER'S
PRAYER AND LED ME TO CHRIST
THAT DAY AND I WANTED JESUS IN
MY LIFE AND IT WASN'T THAT I
HAD TURNED THE CORNER TO BE ON
FIRE FOR THE LORD BUT I KNEW
WHAT I WAS DOING DIDN'T WORK
AND THE THOUGHT AND THE IDEA
THAT MAYBE THERE WAS THIS
GLIMMER OF AN IDEA THAT I COULD
BE FORGIVEN.
HE SINCERELY ASKED JESUS
INTO HIS HEART BUZZ HE
STRUGGLED WITH HIS LIFESTYLE,
HE DECIDED TO GO HOME TO HIS
PARENTS.
THE IDEA THAT I COULD COME
HOME AND MY PARENTS WOULD TREAT
ME LIKE I WAS THE PROD CAL SON,
THEY DID, AND THEY SHOWED ME
THE REAL LIFE OF JESUS, THESE
PEOPLE THAT I USED TO HATE AND
I JUST THOUGHT WERE FULL OF IT
GOT MORE LOVE THAT I'VE EVER
SHOWN ANY HUMAN BEING, AND MY
DAD PRAYED EVERY NIGHT GOING
OUT PLEADING TO GOD, BEGGING
GOD TO CHANGE ME, BEING ANGRY
WITH GOD.
I COULD NEVER IMAGINE HAVING
SOMEONE PUT THAT MUCH DIRT ON
MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY AND MY
NAME AND HAVE HIM COME BACK
HOME AND TREAT HIM AS THOUGH HE
WAS SOME SORT OF PRINCE.
THERE'S TIMES WHERE YOU TAKE
YOUR CHILD AND LAY THEM ON
GOD'S ALTAR AND SAY, I CAN'T DO
ANYMORE, YOU FINALLY RELEASE
EVERYTHING AND LAY YOUR CHILD
UP ON GOD'S ALTAR, I THINK
THAT'S WHEN GOD DOES HIS BEST
WORK AND WITH WHEN WE SEE THOSE
MIRACLES TAKE PLACE.
TODAY TODD IS MARRIED TO
SARAH AND THEY HAVE A SON AL
LON SOW, TODD OWN AS GRAPHIC
DESIGN AGENCY AND HIS FAMILY
LIVE IN BEND, OREGON.
I THINK GOD PURSUES
EVERYBODY AND I'M NOT DIFFERENT
THAN ANYBODY ELSE, GOD PURSUES
US AND HE CONTINUES US, HE
LOOKS AT US LIKE HIS OWN
CHILDREN, SO THERE'S ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING YOU COULD EVER HAVE
DONE IN LIFE OR COULD EVER HAVE
BEEN DONE TO YOU THAT COULD
CHANGE THAT FACT, MAKE GOD LOVE
YOU LESS OR MAKE GOD NOT WANT
TO PURSUE YOU AND HAVE
SOMETHING FOR YOU.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS A
MAGNIFICENT PICTURE THAT TODD
GOT WHEN HE SAID MY LIFE WAS
LIKE THE TITANIC, THE SHIP'S
GOING DOWN AND I'M RUNNING
AROUND REARRANGING THE
FURNITURE, IT MADE NO SENSE,
COMPLETE CHAOS ALL AROUND HIM
AND HE IS JUST ALL CAUGHT UP IN
THINGS THAT ARE NOT GOING TO
MATTER, AND WHEN GOD USED HIS
UNCLE TO BRING HIM OUT TO THAT
FIELD AND TO SEE THE BEAUTIFUL
MOUNTAINS OR TO SEE THE SNOW ON
TOP OF IT AND REALIZE IT WAS SO
PURE, THE WORD OF GOD SAYS
GOD'S CREATION SHOWS US THERE
IS A GOD AND AT THAT MOMENT,
JUST SEE AGO MOUNTAIN, A SNOW
CAPPED MOUNTAIN REVEALED TO HIM
THERE WAS WAY GREATER OUTSIDE
OF HIMSELF, WAY GREATER THAN
THE MESS THAT HE HAD ALREADY
MADE AND MAYBE YOU'RE THERE
TODAY AND YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A
TITANIC, IT IS GOING DOWN AND
YOU'RE RUNNING AROUND
REARRANGING FURNITURE, GOD
WANTS YOU TO KNOW, SHE'S GOT
BUSINESS TO DO WITH YOU, HE'S
GOT A LIFE FOR YOU TO LIVE AND
A DESTINY THAT IS ALL YOUR OWN
AND HE'S GOING GIVE YOU THE
POWER TO DO IT.
YOU KNOW, LAURA LYNN, IT'S
SO TRUE, TODD'S STORY IS NOT
UNLIKE SO MANY OTHER STORIES AS
WELL, AND I BELIEVE TODAY,
THERE IS FREEDOM FOR YOU,
[INAUDIBLE] THAT'S WHAT THE
PSALMS SAY, THE DEPTH OF GOD'S
GRACE AND HIS FORGIVENESS CALLS
TO THE DEPTH OF OUR DEPRAVITY
AND OUR NEED, AND TODAY IS A
NEW DAY FOR YOU, WE'RE GOING TO
DO SOME NEW BUSINESS WITH GOD,
AND WHAT I BELIEVE THIS
BUSINESS AS WE START, YOU'RE
GOING TO BE ABLE TO WALK OUT OF
THIS PLACE FREE BUT YOU'RE
GOING TO NEED THE RESOURCES
RIGHT AFTER THAT AS WELL, THIS
IS WHAT I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO
DO, IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'VE
BEEN TRAPPED IN PORNOGRAPHY, IT
STARTED WITH A CHILD AS TODD,
I'M GOING TO PRAY AGAINST THE
SPIRIT OF MISOGYNY,
THAT'S HATING ON WOMEN,
THAT WOMEN HAVE TO
STICK TOGETHER INSTEAD OF
HAVING A MAN.
I BELIEVE THAT GOD SAYS, LET ME
INTO YOUR LIFE AND LOVE ME MORE
THAN YOUR SIN AND YOU'RE GOING
TO NOW RECOGNIZE THOSE
MOUNTAINS, AND THAT TITANIC GOD
IS GOING TO BRING IT UP, LET'S
DO BUSINESS WITH GOD, WILL YOU
CLOSE YOUR HANDS WITH ME, I
LIKE THAT BECAUSE WHEN I MEAN
BUSINESS WITH GOD, I TIGHTEN UP
MY HANDS AND YOU'RE GOING TO
DECLARE, JESUS, I NEED YOU, I'M
AFRAID, I'M SINKING, I DON'T
KNOW WHAT TO DO, I AM A SINNER,
I CONFESS, WILL YOU COME INTO
MY LIFE AND MAKE ME THE PERSON
THAT YOU WANT ME TO BE, THANK
YOU FOR COMING INTO MY LIFE,
THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME FROM MY
SINS, THANK YOU FOR THE CROSS,
IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.
AMEN.

GONE FOR GOD TO RESCUE YOUR
SOUL.
