REPORTER: AT HOME WITH THE
LONE STAR STATE'S KNEWEST
SENATOR.
WHY TED CRUISE IS CALLING IT THE
NEWEST HOPE.
IT IS A TEST TO SEE WHAT WE
THE PEOPLE CAN DO STANDING
TOGETHER.
REPORTER: PLUS THE CIVIL
RIGHT'S HERO WHO WAS MARTIN
LUTHER KING'S HERO.
HOW HE FOUGHT FOR CHANGE WHILE
RISKING HIS LIFE.
EVERYONE IN THES HOUSE IS
THROWN OUT.
PAT: WELCOME LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN TO THIS EDITION OF
"700 CLUB." THEY ARE BACK TO
FIGHTING IN WASHINGTON.
PRESIDENT BACK FROM PLAYING GOLF
WITH TIGER WOODS.
HE TOOK LESSONS, I MIGHT ADD
FROM TIGER WOODS FORMER COACH.
MAYBE HIS GOLF GAME IMPROVED.
I DON'T KNOW.
HE IS BACK TO FIGHT THE
REPUBLICANS.
HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE HORRIBLE
THING THAT IS WILL HAPPEN IF
THIS SO-CALLED SEQUESTER IS PUT
IN PLACE.
WALL STREET JOURNAL HAD
SOMETHING INTERESTING.
THEY SAID THIS IS 3.2% OF THE
TOTAL FEDERAL SPENDING.
AND I ASK YOU VERY COGENTLY,
WOULD 3.2% OF YOUR SPENDING
DESTROY YOUR LIFE?
KRISTI IS HERE, I'LL ASK THAT
QUESTION WOULD 3.2% CUT IN YOUR
OVERALL SPENDING DESTROY YOUR
LIFE?
KRISTI: NO, BUT IF THESE CUTS
CONTINUE, IN TERMS OF THE
SPENDING IT IS OKAY.
DON'T KEEP RAISING THE TAXES,
THAT INFEAR RATES ME.
PAT: THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE
PRESIDENT IS SAYING.
YOU ARE RIGHT.
YOU CAN'T RACE TAXES, 3.2% IS
PEANUTS.
WE HAVE 3.6 TRILLION DOLLAR
BUDGET AND TAKE OUT ABOUT 80 OR
90 BILLION DOLLARS OUT OF IT.
IT IS PEANUTS.
IT IS AMAZING.
AT ANY EVENT.
THIS IS THE GAMESMANSHIP.
THEY WANT TO KEEP GETTING MORE
AND MORE MONEY.
THEY COULD START BY TAKING 550
MILLION DOLLARS GOES TO PLANNED
PARENTHOOD.
THE GOVERNMENT COULD STOP THAT
IN A HEART BEAT IF THAT IS THE
BIG PROBLEM AND LEAVE THE LIGHTS
ON THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
KRISTI: PAT, IF THEY CAN'T
REACH A DEAL BY MARCH 1ST,
AUTOMATIC SPENDING CUTS GO INTO
EFFECT.
HOW SERIOUS ARE THOSE CUTS?
EPHRAIM GRAHAM HAS THE STORY.
REPORTER: PRESIDENT OBAMA IS
TURNING UP THE PRESSURE ON
REPUBLICANS.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: PEOPLE WILL
LOSE JOBS.
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE MIGHT PICK UP
AGAIN.
REPORTER: IT IS SET TO GO
INTO EFFECT IN 10 DAYS, KNOWN AS
SEQUESTRATION AND INCLUDING THE
MILITARY.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: IF CONGRESS
ALLOWS THIS MEAT CLEAVER
APPROACH, IT WILL JEOPARDIZE
MILITARY READINESS AND EDUCATION
AND ENERGY AND MEDICAL RESEARCH.
REPORTER: PRESIDENT SAID IF
THESE CUTS GO INTO PLACE, IT
WILL BE BECAUSE REPUBLICANS WERE
NOT WILLING TO WORK WITH
DEMOCRATS.
REPUBLICANS ARE FIGHTING BACK.
THEY SAY THE CUTS WILL HAPPEN
AND THE PRESIDENT SHOULD BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE.
THEY ARGUE THE SEQUESTER WAS HIS
IDEA.
SOME POINT OUT HE THREATENED IN
NOVEMBER OF 2011 TO VETO ANY
ATTEMPT TO STOP THE SEQUESTER.
WE ARE HERE BECAUSE THE
PRESIDENT REFUSED TO CUT
SPENDING IN ANY PLACE AND WOUND
UP WITH A SEQUESTER.
REPORTER: CRITICS SAY THEY GO
FAIRLY UNNOTICED.
ENTIRE SEQUESTER CUT IS 80
BILLION OUT OF 400 BILLION
DOLLARS, IT IS BARELY
UNNOTICEABLE.
IT IS WHAT THEY SPEND ON POST-IT
NOTES.
REPORTER: THE PRESIDENT
ALREADY GOT THE TAX INCREASES
DURING NEGOTIATIONS OVER FISCAL
CLIFF.
REPUBLICAN PARTY IS NOT GOING
TO TRADE SPENDING CUTS.
REPORTER: MOT LEY SAYS.
TO MAKE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
FIGHT WITH THEM AMONGST
THEMSELVES IN THE HOPES TO
CREATE ENOUGH TURMOIL THAT THEY
LOSE CONTROL OF THE PARTY IN
2014.
REPORTER: REPUBLICANS
PROPOSALS INCLUDE ELIMINATING
LOOPHOLES AND SUBSIDIES IN THE
TAX CODE.
EPHRAIM GRAHAM, CBN NEWS.
PAT: WHAT I THINK THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD DO IS
CALL ON THE CONGRESS, ESPECIALLY
REPUBLICANS TO STAND TOUGH ON
THIS ONE.
AGAIN 85 BILLION DOLLARS OUT OF
3.6 TRILLION IT IS NOTHING IN
COMPARISON.
IT IS UP TO THE PRESIDENT.
HE DECIDED ON THIS SEQUESTER.
IT WAS HIS IDEA.
HE WAS GIVEN THE SIMPSON-BO
PLAN.
IN MY OPINION A BRILLIANT PLAN
TO MAKE ACROSS THE BOARD
ANALYSIS OF WHERE THE NEEDS WERE
AND POTENT SHL REVENUE SOURCES,
IT WAS HIS COMMITTEE.
THEY GAVE HIM A REPORT, HE PUTS
IT IN THE BOTTOM DRAWER.
DOESN'T PAY ATTENTION TO IT.
AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE JUST NOT
FOOLS.
HE MUST THINK THEY ARE.
BUT THE TIME HAS COME AND IF YOU
WANT TO LET YOUR VOICE BE KNOWN,
CAPITOL HILL 202-224-2131.
TELL YOUR SENATOR TO HANG TOUGH
ON THIS THING.
KRISTI POINTED OUT, WE DON'T
NEED TAXES RAISED.
THEY ARE HITTING PEOPLE PRETTY
HARD.
THIS 'OBAMACARE' IS HURTING
PEOPLE DRAMATICALLY IN TERMS OF
HEALTH CARE.
IT IS DRAMATIC!
THE DANGER THAT IS TAKING PLACE.
SO ANYHOW, SO MUCH FOR THAT.
IT IS GOING TO BE THE DEBATE.
I THINK IF THERE EVER WAS A
FALSE ONE, IT IS THIS ONE,
PRESIDENT CREATE AS SEQUESTER
AND COMES UP TO FIGHT AGAINST
THE SEQUESTER, REPUBLICANS FAULT
THEY DON'T COME OFF A SEQUESTER
HE PROPOSED.
DANGERS OF BIG SPENDING ARE
CATCHING UP WITH SOME AMERICAN
STATES AS WELL AS THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT, ALSO SOME OF THE

THEY HAVE BEEN MASKING WITH
LONG-TERM BORROWINGS.
REPORTER: FINANCIAL EXPERTS
BELIEVE BANKRUPTCY MAYBE
DETROIT'S ONLY REMEDY.
THEY ARE CONFIDENT THERE ARE
OTHER SOLUTIONS IF THE CITY AND
STATE WORK TOGETHER.
PRICE OF OIL MAY GO ABOVE $100.
THAT COULD MEAN HIGHER PRICES AT
THE GAS PUMP.
OIL HAS BEEN MOVING HIGHER IN
THE LAST FEW MONTHS, FROM LOW OF
77 DOLLARS LA$77 LAST SUMMER TO $98 A FEW
WEEKS AGO.
OIL HASN'T BEEN ABOVE $100 FOR
NEARLY A YEAR.
IT COULD TAKE MORE MONEY OUT OF

THE ECONOMY.

THEY ARE ABLE TO CLOSE DOWN WITH
THESE THINGS.
THEY CAN CLOSE DOWN OUR POWER
GRID, SHUT DOWN THE
TRANSPORTATION NETWORK, SHUT
DOWN THE GROUND CONTROL FOR OUR
AIRLINES.
THEY CAN WREAK HAVOC WITH THE
STOCK MARKETS.
IT IS INCREDIBLE HOW BRITTLE WE
ARE IN RELATION TO THE COMPUTERS
WE USE.
THEY ARE SUCH GREAT TOOLS.
IF THEY GO BAD, YOUR SOCIETY IS
IN TROUBLE.
THE CHINESE ARE EXPLOITING IT
FOR ALL THEY ARE WORTH.
NOT JUST THE CHINESE, OTHERS
DOING THE SAME.
RUSSIAN MOBS INVOLVED IN THE
THING, CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES
HACKING IN.
I THINK ONE COMPUTER I AM
FAMILIAR WITH, PERSON IN CHARGE
TOLD ME THEY WERE GETTING
300,000 HITS A DAY TAX AGAINST

WHO KNOWS WHAT IS BEING DONE TO

PAT: HE NEEDS 61 VOTES.
HE PERSONALLY WON 31.
HE HAS TO HAVE A COALITION.
SHE IS A LABOR PARTY.
THEY HAVE A BIG BLOCK.
HE IS MORE COMFORTABLE WITH HER.
IT IS RATHER UNUSUAL.
THEY ARE ENEMIES, POLITICS MAKES
STRANGE BEDFELLOWS.
I AM NOT SAYING THEY ARE
BEDFELLOWS, IT IS A METAPHOR

YEAH.
IT WAS ROUGH.
REPORTER: SHE TRIED ALL KINDS
OF MEDICINES WHICH CAUSED
TERRIBLE SIDE EFFECTS AND DIDN'T
EVEN WORK.
THEN SHE HEARD ABOUT EPILEPSY
SURGERY.
EPILEPSY SURGERY CAN HELP
MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN TAKING
MEDICINE ALL THEIR LIFE,
CONTINUING TO SEIZE AND NOT
PARTICIPATE IN LIFE.
REPORTER: DR. WILLIAM BINGMAN
HAS BEEN PERFORMING EPILEPSY
SURGERY FOR THE LAST 15 YEARS
INVOLVES FINDING THE SPOT WHERE
THE SEIZURES ORIGINATE AND
CUTTING IT OUT.
FROM A PERSONALITY
STANDPOINT, WE HAVE ALL SEEN
MOVIES WHERE PEOPLE HAVE FRONTAL
LOBEECTOMIES AND IT IS NOT LIKE
THAT WITH THIS TYPE OF SURGERY.
REPORTER: EPILEPSY SURGERY
HAS A HIGH SUCCESS RATE, TO THE
PATIENT, THE IDEA IS DAUNTING TO
SAY THE LEAST.
I TALKED TO GOD DAILY
THROUGHOUT THE 10 PLUS YEARS OF
HAVING SEIZURES.
CAME TO A POINT WHERE I REALLY
FELT I HEARD HIM SAY NOW IS THE
TIME TO HAVE THE SURGERY.
IT GAVE ME THE COURAGE TO MOVE
FORWARD WITH SOMETHING SO
INCREDIBLY SCARY.
REPORTER: NOW SHE IS SO GLAD
SHE DID.

RESEARCHERS FROM KANSAS STATE
UNIVERSITY STUDIED 63,000
AUSTRALIAN MEN.
THOSE THAT SAT MORE THAN FOUR
HOURS A DAY WERE MORE LIKELY TO
GET CANCER OR ARTHRITIS.
IT INCREASES IF THEY SIT LONGER.
THOSE SITTING MORE THAN EIGHT

RISK.
PAT, OUR CONTROL ROOM, THESE

THEY ARE OUT OF THEIR SEATS AND
STANDING, GOOD FOR THEM!
PAT: WE'LL GIVE THEM --

I AM SITTING HERE.
I READ.
I DON'T READ STANDING UP AND
WALKING AROUND.
KRISTI: IN OFFICES, PAT,
PEOPLE ARE DOING DIFFERENT
THINGS SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO
SIT.
AT "THE 700 CLUB," A LOT OF THE
PRODUCERS THAT HAVE THEIR DESK
RAISED AND THEY STAND.
I AM NOT ONE OF THEM.
[LAUGHTER].

PAT: REPUBLICANS ARE
EARNESTLY SHOPPING AROUND TO
FIND SOMEBODY THAT CAN BE THEIR
STANDARD BEARER.
THEY SEEM TO LIKE HISPANICS
BECAUSE THE HISPANICS ARE THE
LARGEST VOTING BLOCK IN THE
COUNTRY AS THEY KEEP
PROGRESSING.
A MAN NAMED TED CRUZ FROM TEXAS
WHO TOOK HIS PLACE IN THE SENATE
IN JANUARY.
HE QUICKLY BECAME ONE OF THE FEW
REPUBLICANS CALLED A POTENTIAL
ROCK STAR AND SHAKING THINGS UP
IN WASHINGTON.
WHAT MAKE THIS IS LONE STAR
LAWMAKERS TICK?
OUR DAVID BRODY TRAVELED TO
TEXAS TO FIND OUT.
I GOT MONEY.
REPORTER: THIS IS WHAT TRULY
DRIVES TED CRUZ, TIME AT HOME
WITH WIFE AND DAUGHTERS IN
HOUSTON, AWAY FROM WASHINGTON'S
HUSTLE AND BUSTLE.
DILIGENCE, PROVERBS 22:29
TELLS US
REPORTER: FAMILY DEVOTIONS.
ALTHOUGH THEY FACE WORK WHEN
DADDY GOES TO WASHINGTON.
IN THE TWO MONTHS SINCE TED CRUZ
DESCENDED ON WASHINGTON HE HAS A

THANKS BE TO GOD.
REPORTER: CRUZ STARTED AS A
POLITICAL UNKNOWN REGISTERING 2%
POLES.
TEA PARTY PACKING AND STRONG
MESSAGE LED TO PRIMARY WIN
AGAINST GOP LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR
AND POWERED HIM TO THE SENATE.
IT WAS BREATHTAKING AND A
TESTAMENT TO THE GRASS ROOTS.
IT WAS A TESTAMENT TO WHAT, WE,
THE PEOPLE CAN DO STANDING
TOGETHER.
REPORTER: CRUZ FAMILY IS USED
TO OVERCOMING ODDS, CUBAN FATHER
ARRIVED IN THE STATES AT AGE 18
SPEAKING NO ENGLISH WITH $100 TO
HIS NAME.
HE WENT FROM A DISHWASHER TO
REGULARLY WORKING SEVEN DAYS A
WEEK AND PUT HIMSELF THROUGH
COLLEGE.
HIS FATHER TRAVELS AS A BAPTIST
PASTOR.
MY DAD HAS BEEN MY HERO MY
WHOLE LIFE.
WHAT I HAVE FOUND MOST
EXTRAORDINARY IS HOW COMMON
SENSE IT IS.
REPORTER: CRUZ'S CAREER
FOLLOWS UP BRINGING WITH
POLITICAL DISCUSSION AROUND THE
FAMILY TABLE.
EVEN MEMORIZED U.S. CONSTITUTION
AS A SUPERSMART HIGH SCHOOLER.
I GAVE 80 SPEECHES ALL OVER
THE STATE ON FREE MARKET
ECONOMICS AND BECAME MY PASSION.
REPORTER: IN COLLEGE, CRUZ
CONNECTED THE CONSTITUTION WITH
HIS CHRISTIAN FAITH.
HIS MENTOR, CHRISTIAN PROFESSOR
AND CONSERVATIVE ROBBIE GEORGE
HELPED HIM EMBRACE CONCEPT OF
LAW.
RIGHTS ARE GIVEN TO EVERY ONE
GOD.@;
ROLE OF GOVERNMENT FUNDAMENTALLY
IS TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS.
REPORTER: THAT BECAME CENTRAL
TO CRUZ'S POLITICAL COURT.
CRUZ, A SOUTHERN BAPTIST DOESN'T
SHY AWAY FROM TALKING ABOUT HIS
FAITH.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, FAITH
IS NOT ORGANIZED RELIGION.
IT IS NOT GOING TO A CHURCH.
IT IS A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
WITH JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD
AND SAVIOR.
REPORTER: HE IS DETERMINED
NOT TO USE IT AS A WEAPON.
I THINK ANYONE IN POLITICS,
YOU HAVE A SPECIAL OBLIGATION TO
AVOID BEING A PHARISEE, TO AVOID
OSTENTATIOUSLY WRAPPING YOURSELF
IN YOUR FAITH.
REPORTER: CRUZ HAS TAKEN
STRONG STANDS AGAINST INCREASING
DEBT CEILING.
WE DO NOT KNOW FOR EXAMPLE,
IF HE RECEIVED COMPENSATION FOR
GIVING PAID SPEECHES AS EXTREME
OR RADICAL GROUPS.
SENATOR CRUZ HAS GONE OVER
THE LINE.
HE BASICALLY HAS IMPUGNED THE
PAY PATRIOTISM.
REPORTER: FIRST CLASS CRUZ,
NEXT NEW HOME.
ALSO REPUBLICAN BARACK OBAMA.
REPORTER: THEY ARE CALLING
YOU A GOP ROCK STAR, WHAT DO YOU
THINK?
I TRY TO PAY VERY LITTLE
ATTENTION TO THE MEDIA.
IT IS A FICKLE CREATURE.
REPORTER: CRUZ IS FOCUSSED ON
A NEW REPUBLICAN PARTY.
I THINK PRESIDENT OBAMA IS
THE MOST RADICAL PRESIDENT WE
HAVE EVER SEEN.
AN AWFUL LOT OF REPUBLICANS FAIL
TO STAND FOR PRINCIPLE AND
CONTRIBUTED TO THIS MESS.
REPORTER: HEIDI CRUZ KNOWS HE
WILL STAND FOR PRINCIPLE.
ONLY GOT BETTER AND BETTER AS
THINGS GOT TOUGHER.
THAT GAVE VOTERS AND US AS HIS
FAMILY A LOT OF CONFIDENCE HE IS
PRETTY GOOD.
REPORTER: CALM IN THE
STRENGTH IN THE STORM?
INTERESTING.
I AM NOT SURE THAT ASSESSMENT
IS ALWAYS TRUE AROUND THE DINNER
TABLE.
REPORTER: IT IS TRUE IN
NATIONAL POLITICS, DAVID BRODY,
CBN NEWS, IN HOUSTON, TEXAS.
PAT: THINK ABOUT RONALD
REAGAN, HE WAS SMART ENOUGH TO
REALIZE THEY HAD TO MAKE
COMPROMISES FROM TIME TO TIME,
HE DID SO.
AT THE SAME TIME, HE HELD TO
CORE, BASIC AMERICAN, FREE
MARKET PRINCIPLES.
AND THAT IS WHAT ENDEARED HIM TO
THE PEOPLE.
TED CRUZ HAS DEEPLY HELD
BELIEFS, HAVING MEMORIZED THE
CONSTITUTION.
THAT IS SOMETHING.
HAVING GONE TO HARVARD LAW
SCHOOL, HE IS NOT AN
INTELLECTUAL SLOUCH.
HE HAS DEEPLY HELD BELIEFS AND
COMPORT TO WHAT THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT THE COURSE OF
THIS COUNTRY AND THAT IS WHY HE
WINS IN TEXAS.
KEEP YOUR EYE ON HIM.
HE DOESN'T LOOK OR APPEAR QUOTE
HISPANIC.
HE DOESN'T TALK THAT WAY, HE
DOESN'T HAVE ANY ACCENT OR
ANYTHING.
IT LOOKS LIKE THAT MAYBE THE
FUTURE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
TED CRUZ AND MARCO RUBIO, TWO
RISING STARS, VERY ATTRACTIVE,
INTELLIGENT ARTICULATE PEOPLE.
WE WISH THEM THE BEST.
SURE KRISTI DOES, TOO.
KRISTI: LET'S SWITCH GEARS.
EVERYBODY KNOWS YOU LOVE HORSES.
YOU BEGAN RIDING HORSES AS A
YOUTH.
COMING UP, A WOMAN TRAPPED
BENEATH HER HORSE WITH NO ONE
AROUND TO HELP.
HE GOT HIS HOOF CAUGHT.
HE STRUGGLED.
I WENT DOWN WITH HIM.
THAT WAS THE MOST HELPLESS
FEELING.
KRISTI: A SERIES OF MIRACLES
HELPED THESE TWO WALK OUT OF THE
WOODS WITHOUT A LIMP.
PLUS PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOUR
NEEDS, WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T GO
AWAY.
@?
KRISTI: EVERY MORNING AMY
JACOBS ENJOYS RIDING HER HORSE,
CHIC.
PAT, WHAT IS THE NAME OF YOUR
HORSE?
PAT: UFANO PORTUGUESE.
I HAVE RIDDEN ABOUT 70 YEARS.
KRISTI: THAT IS A LONG TIME.
PAT: I HAVE HAD A HORSE FALL
ON ME, ONE FALL DOWN WITH ME ON

I HAVE HAD ANY NUMBER OF TIMES
BEEN BOUNCED OFF OF PEOPLE THAT
DID SOMETHING.
WHAT ELSE HAVE THEY DONE TO ME?
I AM STILL SURVIVING.
KRISTI: YET YOU SURVIVED.

ONE OF THE THINGS I LOVE MORE

REPORTER: PIECE OF METAL LAY
HIDDEN IN THE WEEDS.
OPENINGS ARE 8X6.
HE GOT HIS HOOF CAUGHT.
HE STRUGGLED AND FELL COMPLETELY
OVER.
OF COURSE I WENT DOWN WITH HIM.
MY LEFT FOOT WAS UNDER HIM.
I TRIED TO GET IT OUT FROM UNDER
HIM.
I COULDN'T MOVE IT.
THAT WAS THE MOST HELPLESS
FEELING.
REPORTER: AS THE 1200 POUND
HORSE STRUGGLED TO GET ON HIS
FEET, AMY WAS IN DANGER OF BEING
CRUSHED TO DEATH, ONE WRONG MOVE
COULD BREAK HIS LEG.
HIS MASSIVE BODY WEIGHT
SMOTHERED AMY'S LEG AND AFTER
HOURS COULD LEAD TO DAMAGE.
I SAID A SILENT PRAYER AND
SAID GOD IT IS UP TO YOU.
I WAS IN THE WOODS BY MYSELF.
I COULDN'T YELL TO SOMEONE TO
HELP ME.
IT WAS CHIC AND ME AND I KNEW
GOD HAD TO HELP US.
REPORTER: AMY SAW HER CELL
PHONE STILL HAD A SIGNAL AND
IMMEDIATELY CALLED FOR HELP.
I CALLED MY FAMILY, NO
ANSWER.
ABOUT THE FOURTH CALL WAS TO

THE PHONE.
HE COULD GET IN CONTACT WITH
PEOPLE THAT COULD HELP ME.
REPORTER: JAMIE SPARKS AND
RESIDENT HORSE TRAINER WAS
CALLED IN FOR HELP.
I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE
AND MY DAD CALLED AND SHE WAS ON
THE BACK OF THE FARM.
SHE CAME AROUND BEHIND ME AND
RAKED ME OUT FROM UNDER THE
HORSE RIGHT AS SHE TRIED TO
STAND UP.
THE FEELING CAME BACK IN MY LEG.
I TOLD HER TO LAY ON CHIC'S
HEAD AND KEEP HIM CALM.
HORSES CAN STRESS OUT AND
EVENTUALLY DIE IF THEY ARE TOO
STRESSED.
REPORTER: SOON MORE HELP
ARRIVED.
IT LOOKED SERIOUS TO ME.
HORSE WAS PRETTY CALM.
IF THE HORSE STARTED KICKING, IT
COULD HAVE DONE DAMAGE.
I HAD TO USE THE CUTTERS TO PULL
HIS LEG FREE.
REPORTER: CHIC JUMPED TO HIS
FEET AGAIN VIRTUALLY UNHARMED.
GOD DEFINITELY SAVED ME AND
CHIC.
NEITHER ONE OF US LIMPED OR WENT
TO THE DOCTOR OR LASTING
PROBLEMS.
HE WENT BACK TO THE FIELD TO
GRAIZE, BUSINESS AS USUAL.
IT WAS AMAZING.
WE HAD MIRACLE AFTER MIRACLE.
CASCADE OF MIRACLES.
GOD MADE ME HAVE PEACE AND MADE
SURE CHIC DIDN'T PANIC.
GOD CAN MAKE A DONKEY TALK.
HE ANSWERS PRAYER.
I AM GLAD HE ANSWERED THAT ONE
THAT DAY.
KRISTI: I LOVE THAT.
GOD DOES ANSWER PRAYERS.
HE IS A MIRACLE-WORKING GOD,
ISN'T HE, PAT.
PAT: HE HAS THE ANGELS
LOOKING AFTER US.
LET'S PRAY FOR SOME PEOPLE.
WHEN I WAS A KID, MAYBE 13, 14,
SOMETHING, I WAS GALLOPING A
HORSE ACROSS A FIELD.
THERE WAS A SMALL DITCH.
HE STEPPED INTO IT.
NEXT THING YOU KNOW I WAS
LOOKING THAT HORSE STRAIGHT IN
THE EYE, HE WAS COMPLETELY ON

VIEWED STORIES, GO DO CBN.COM.
*
KRISTI: WELCOME BACK TO "THE
700 CLUB," THIS IS YOUR
OPPORTUNITY TO ASK PAT WHATEVER
YOU WANT ON A SEGMENT WE LIKE TO
CALL BRING IT ON.
LYNN SAYS WHAT IS THE MEANING OF
THE EXPRESSION GOD IS MARRIED TO
THE BACKSLIDER?
PAT: UM, I THINK THAT IS A
MISUNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE
BIBLE HAS TO SAY.
FRANKLY, I HAVE NEVER HEARD THE
EXPRESSION BEFORE I WAS ASKED
THAT QUESTION.
WE HAD THE RESEARCH DEPARTMENT
VERY KINDLY REFERRED US TO
JEREMIAH 3:14 WHICH SAYS:
RETURN OH BACKSLIDING CHILDREN
SAYS THE LORD, PERIOD.
FOR I AM MARRIED TO YOU.
WHO IS HE TALKING ABOUT?
HE IS TALKING ABOUT ISRAEL,
JUDAH, EFRAM.
I AM MARRIED TO ISRAEL, NOT
BACKSLIDERS.
TWO FROM ONE FAMILY BRING YOU
THE ZION.
GOD ISN'T MARRIED TO ANY
BACKSLIDERS.
KRISTI: SHERRY SAYS PSALM
139:14, I AM FEARFULLY AND
WONDERFULLY MADE, WHAT IS MEANT
BY "FEARFULLY MADE?"
PAT: LOOK AT SOMEBODY, HE IS
SO SMART IT IS FRIGHTENING, SHE
IS SO BEAUTIFUL IT IS
FRIGHTENING?
KRISTI: NO BUT I'LL TAKE IT.
PAT: THAT IS WHAT IT MEANS,
FEARFUL.
CONSTRUCTION OF OUR BODIES AND
BEINGS SOMETHING THAT COULD
CREATE IN SOMEBODY'S MIND.
SCARY HOW AMAZING WE ARE.
KRISTI: MIKE SAYS I HAVE A
QUESTION ABOUT RECEIVING THE
HOLY SPIRIT.
I DON'T SPEAK IN TONGUES AND
NEVER HEARD AUDIBLE VOICE OF GOD
OR PROPHESIED OR SEEN A VISION.
IS IT POSSIBLE I HAVE A
SPIRITUAL GIFT THAT MANIFESTS
ITSELF IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.
PAT: SOME HOW, YOU ARE
HOLDING BACK.
YOU HAVEN'T MOVED INTO THE
FULLNESS OF THE LORD.
IN ORDER TO HAVE THOSE
MANIFESTATIONS, FIRST THE
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
SOME HOW OR OTHER THAT HASN'T
HAPPENED TO YOU.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NEED
COUNSELING OR SOMEONE TO WORK
WITH YOU OR SURRENDER YOURSELF.
YOU MENTIONED SPEAKING IN
TONGUES.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SPEAK IN
YOUR VENN KNACK LAR AND YOUR
LANGUAGE AT THE SAME TIME.
PEOPLE ARE BUSY ASKING GOD FOR
SOMETHING THEY DON'T HAVE TIME
TO RECEIVE.
IF YOU SAID WOULD YOU LOAN ME A
DOLLAR AND I HELD OUT A DOLLAR.
IF YOU SAID WILL YOU PLEASE GIVE
ME A DOLLAR.
IF YOU SAID WILL YOU PLEASE GIVE
ME THE DOLLAR.
YOU SAID PLEASE, PLEASE, I AM SO
NEEDY.
HERE IS THE DOLLAR.
GOD IS HOLDING OUT THESE GIFTS.
YOU ARE SO BUSY ASKING AND
CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR LACK THAT
YOU ARE NOT RECEIVING THE LORD.
FOCUS IN ON JESUS.
HE IS THE BAPTIZER IN THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
THEN RECEIVE WHAT HE HAS AND
THANK HIM FOR IT.
KRISTI: MAY I ASK YOU IN
TERMS OF SPEAKING FOR TONGUES.
VERY FIRST TIME I EVER SPOKE IN
TONGUES, MY MOTHER TOLD ME THE
SAME ADVISE, OPEN YOUR MOUTH,
KRISTI.
I THOUGHT IT WOULD COME.
I STARTED OPENING MY MOUTH AND
IT CAME OUT.
PAT: BIBLE SAYS THEY SPOKE.
THEY DID THE SPEAKING.
KRISTI: BARBARA SAYS IN
HEAVEN WILL WE BE ONE SEX OR
OTHER WILL WOMEN SHARE EQUALITY
WITH MEN?
PAT: READ THE BIBLE MORE,
JESUS SAID NEITHER MARRIED BUT
LIKE ANGELS, DON'T HAVE SEX.
THEY DON'T REPRODUCE.
THAT IS WHAT SEX IS ABOUT.
MALE AND FEMALE TO HAVE BABIES.
JESUS SAID THEY WILL BE LIKE THE
ANGELS.
THERE IS NOT MALE OR FEMALE.
OF COURSE THEY ARE ALL EQUAL.
KRISTI: THELMA, WHAT IS THE
BEST WAY TO PRAY?
I TRY TO PRAY EVERYDAY BEFORE I
START MY DAY.
PAT: WHAT IS IT IS FOR YOU,
STANDING SITTING, RAISING HANDS,
GOOD FOR YOU.
WHATEVER IT IS, IT IS THE TOUCH
OF YOUR SPIRIT WITH THE SPIRIT
OF GOD.
THAT IS WHAT PRAYER IS ABOUT.
DEEP CALLS UNTO DEEP.
YOUR SPIRIT IS COMMUTING WITH
GOD.
THE PHYSICAL POSTURE OF YOUR
BODY ISN'T WHAT IS IMPORTANT.
IT IS THE ATTITUDE OF YOUR
HEART.
YOU COULD BE ON YOUR KNEES AND
WISHING THAT YOUR SISTER-IN-LAW
WAS DEAD AND YOU ARE NOT EXACTLY
COMMUTING WITH GOD.
IT IS NOT YOUR PHYSICAL POSTURE
AS THE ATTITUDE OF YOUR HEART.
THAT IS WHAT GOD IS LOOKING FOR.
KRISTI: THAT IS IT.
PAT: THAT IS IT?
OH CHRISTY.
KRISTI: IF YOU WANT TO ASK A
QUESTION LOG ON TO CBN.COM.
I THINK THERE IS A BRING IT ON
QUESTION SPACE THERE SOME WHERE.
PAT: YES, IN DEED.
KRISTI: THE SISTERS YOU ARE
ABOUT TO MEET GROUP UP IN A

FATHER'S WORK IN THE CIVIL
RIGHTS MOVEMENT.
MY FATHER WAS KNOWN FOR
KINDNESS AND HUMBLE IN A SOFT
SPOKEN GENTLE MAN.
WHEN HE TALKED PEOPLE WOULD
LISTEN.
HE WAS A GREAT NEGOTIATOR.
HE WAS ONE THAT COULD BRING
PEOPLE TOGETHER AT A TABLE AND

A GIANT IN MY ESTIMATION.

BECAME KNOWN AS DYNAMITE HILL.
THERE WAS ZONING LAWS IN THE
EARLY 30S AND 40S WHERE BLACKS
COULD ONLY LIVE ON THE EAST SIDE
AND NOT WEST SIDE.
FOR BLACKS THAT TRIED TO MOVE
INTO HOMES ON WHITES ONLY SIDE
OF THE STREET --
USUALLY THE HOUSE WAS ETHER
BOMBED OR THEY WOULDN'T GET A
CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY TO MOVE
INTO THE HOUSE AFTER THEY SPENT
MONEY TO BUILD A HOME THERE.
THAT HAPPENED TO 50 OR MORE
HOUSES.
IT GOT THE NAME "DYNAMITE HILL"
BECAUSE OF THE HOUSES BOMBED
WERE ALL AROUND AND STRAIGHT UP
THIS HILL.

COVERING SOMETHING UP.
IT HAPPENED TO BE MY FAVORITE
DOG KILLED IN THE BOMBING.
REPORTER: BARBARA TOLD HER
FATHER SHE HATED THE PEOPLE THAT

AGAIN.

I COULD ALMOST CLOSE MY EYES AND
SMELL THE DYNAMITE.

SUCCESSFUL CAREER IN SOCIAL
WORK.

AS A ROLE SERVED
MODEL FOR HER AND OTHER
AFRICAN-AMERICANS.
I AM PROUD HE HAD THE COURAGE
AND FORTITUDE TO TAKE ON CIVIL
RIGHT CASES LONG BEFORE WE HEARD
OF CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE 60S.
EVEN IN THE MIDST OF THREATS TO
HIS LIFE, EVEN IN THE MIDS OF
THREATS TO HIS FAMILY, HE
CONTINUE TO TAKE ON VOTING
RIGHTS CASES.
THES THAT WOULD LEAD TO
TEACHER'S ON OF
SALARIES, DESEGREGATION OF
SCHOOLS.
FATHER'S R: THEIR
SPIRITU
SPIRITU
SPIRITUAL STRENGTH KEPT HIM
GOING.
MY FATHER MARVELLED FOR US
HIS FAITHFULNESS.
EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED, THE
BOMBING, HE NEVER LOST HIS FAITH
AND HIS BELIEF GOD WOULD BRING
HIM AND HIS FAMILY THROUGH ALL
OF IT.
