HELLO, I'M BRIAN WARREN.
AND I'M LAURA LYNN TYLER THOM.
WELCOME TO THE SHOW.
LAURA LYNN, GROWING UP YOU KN,
WE ALL HAVE OUR FEARS AND PHOBI.
NOW LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION.
YES.
WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST FEAR
GROWING UP AND HOW DID YOU
OVERCOME IT?
OH, MY BIGGEST FEAR WAS
GROWING UP IN AFRICA WAS
CROCODILES AND ELEPHANTS. I
WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE BAD
DREAMS. MY MOM WOULD SAY
IF YOU DON'T BE GOOD I'LL THROW
YOU TO THE CROCODILES. OF COURSE
SHE WAS JUST KIDDING, BUT I WOUD
YOU KNOW I WOULD HAVE DREAMS
THAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE
MUNCHING DOWN ON ME. HOW
I OVERCAME IT WAS I JUST GREW UP
AND I REALIZED THAT I JUST WOULT
GO ANYWHERE NEAR A CROCODILE AND
I'LL BE FINE.
WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT; I DON'T K
YOU HAD A WHOLE LOT TO WORRY. YE
A APPETIZER FOR A CROCODILE.
I AM AN APPETIZER, YEAH.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVE AN INCREDIBE
WEEK OF SHOWS FOR YOU ON THE 700
CLUB CANADA. AS WE'RE GOING TO K
AT WHAT IT TAKES TO BE AN OVER .
HUM, WE'VE ALL HAD EXPERIENCES
IN OUR LIVES THAT LITERALLY STOS
IN OUR TRACKS. AND FOR SOME THE
CIRCUMSTANCES ARE SO PARALYZING
THAT IT'S DIFFICULT TO RECOVER.F
YOU'RE STUCK IN A PLACE WHERE FR
AND WORRY ARE DOMINANT FACTORS N
YOUR LIFE. THEN STAY WITH US TO.
WE'VE GOT SOME AMAZING STORIES
INSPIRE YOU TO OVERCOME.
YOU KNOW THE BIBLE SAYS THAT
WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIB.
NOW IT'S HARD FOR A LOT OF PEOPE
TO LIVE LIKE THAT. BUT YOU'LL SE
WHAT HAPPENED WHEN ONE RUSSIAN
COUPLE PUT THEIR FAITH IN GOD, D
WOUND UP CHANGING THE CULTURE
AROUND THEM. NOW THIS STORY PROS
THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE QUALID
FOR GOD TO USE YOU. YOU JUST HAO
BE WILLING.
ALSO WHEN DAN FANDANGOS' DOCTS
GAVE HIM THREE MONTHS TO LIVE, E
HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO BELIEVE GOD
FOR A MIRACLE. AND YOU'LL SEE HW
HIS FAITH PAID OFF.
AND I'LL BE TALKING
WITH DR. GRANT
MULLEN TODAY, AND ALL WEEK AS HE
SHARES HIS EXPERT ADVICE ON HOW
TO LIVE A TRANSFORMED LIFE. BUT
FIRST, THIS IS HOW ONE COUPLE
OVERCAME A DARK PATH, AND ARE
NOW LIVING A LIFE WITHOUT FEAR.
[MUSIC]
FOR THE HUMAN MIND IT SEEMS
ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. BUT SPEND
TIME WITH THE FASANO FAMILY, AND
THEY'LL SOON CONVINCE YOU THAT
WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIB.
THE MOMENT YOU SEE AN ORPHANS
EYES I PROMISE IT WILL CHANGE YR
LIFE.
TEN YEARS AGO SVETLANA LIVED
WITH A DARK PAST. UVGANIE WAS
A DRUG ADDICT AND HIV POSITIVE.
BOTH HAD A RADICAL ENCOUNTER WIH
JESUS CHRIST, THAT CHANGED THEIR
LIVES FOREVER.
I BEGAN TO SEARCH FOR GOD. I D
SEE THE PATH THAT I NEEDED TO G.
THE COUPLES DREAM, TO SEE THER
NATION OF UKRAINE WITHOUT ORPHA.
IF SOMEONE TOLD ME TEN YEARS O
I WOULD HAVE THESE MANY
CHILDREN, AND WOULD BE MARRIED O
AN HIV POSITIVE MAN, I WOULD
SAY THAT'S HUMANLY IMPOSSIBLE. T
GOD BIRTHED IN US SOMETHING
SPECIAL.
[MUSIC]
SVETLANA AND UVGANIE, BECAME
THE FIRST FAMILY IN UKRAINE TO
ADOPT A CHILD WITH HIV.
NOT JUST ONE; SEVEN HIV
POSITIVE CHILDREN.
IF WE WANT TO SEE A UKRAINE
WITHOUT ORPHANS CHRISTIANS HAVE
TO BE A PART OF THE SOLUTION.
AND CHRISTIANS ARE ANSWERING
THE CALL. SVETLANA JOINED
HUNDREDS OF PASTORS AND
CHRISTIAN LEADERS FROM DIFFERENT
PARTS OF THE GLOBE IN KEY OF
RECENTLY, FOR A SUMMIT ON ORPHAN
CARE. ORGANIZER LOUSLAN MILOUTA
LEADS A GRASS ROOTS MOVEMENT
COMMITTED TO CARE FOR UKRAINE'S
ORPHANS.
GOD SAID THAT HE IS THE FATHER
OF THE FATHERLESS. WHICH MEANS
THAT HE WANTS EVERY ORPHAN TO
BE IN A FAMILY.
HOW IS GOD GOING TO DO IT IS FOR
THE CHURCH. ADOPTION AND
PROVIDING A HOME FOR AN
ORPHAN IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF
PART OF THE GOSPEL.
AND THIS IS A CROWD THAT IS
VERY SERIOUS ABOUT SEEING A
UKRAINE WITHOUT ORPHANS.
SITTING IN THE CROWD THERE
ABOUT A HUNDRED AND SIXTY
FAMILIES THAT HAVE EITHER ADOPTD
A UKRAINIAN CHILD OR ARE TODAY
ARE FOSTER PARENTS.
GUDINI MONIKO IS ONE OF THEM.
HE IS A PASTOR, AND ALONG WITH
HIS WIFE THEY HAVE THIRTY-ONE
FOSTER CHILDREN.
SHOULD ALL FAMILIES TAKE
THIRTY-ONE CHILDREN IN LIKE WE
DID? NO. BUT IF THIS MOVEMENT
IS TO HAVE A LASTING IMPACT
CHRISTIAN LEADERS MUST SET THE
EXAMPLE, AND THEY ARE. THE
LAST FEW YEARS GOD HAS BEEN
MOVING IN THE HEARTS OF PASTORS
TO LEAD THE CHARGE.
PAUL PENNINGTON IS VERY ENCOUD
BY WHAT HE SEES HAPPENING IN
UKRAINE.
THE POTENTIAL HERE IS HUGE BEE
THE CHURCH IS ENGAGED ACROSS
DENOMINATIONAL LINES, AND TO BE
A REALLY A MODEL TO COUNTRIES
AROUND THE WORLD, HOW THE CHURCH
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR CHILD.
PENNINGTON IS WITH HOPEFUL
ORPHANS. A TEXAS GROUP HELPING
UKRAINIAN CHURCHES WITH BIBLE
BASED ORPHAN MINISTRIES.
PENNINGTON HAS SIX CHILDREN.
FIVE OF WHOM ARE ADOPTED.
THE ONLY WAY TO REACH A
HUNDRED AND FORTY MILLION
ORPHANS AROUND THE WORLD
IS THROUGH THE CHURCH. BECAUSE
ONLY THE CHURCH IS BIG ENOUGH.
ONLY THE CHURCH HAS THE POWER
AND THE MANDATE TO REACH THAT
MANY CHILDREN IN A SUSTAINED
WAY.
PASTORS IN RUSSIA, BELARUS,
ROMANIA, AND MOLDOVA HAVE
STARTED SIMILAR NATION WITHOUT
ORPHANS MOVEMENTS.
WHAT AN HONOR TO BE IN A ROOM
FULL--
WEST STAFFORD PRESIDENT OF
COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL, SAYS
HE'S MOVED BY
THE PASTORS DEDICATION
TO THE VISION.
THEY DO IT WITH AN UNDERSTANDG
THAT GOD COMMITS TO BLESS ORPHAS
AND THOSE WHO DO BLESS ORPHANS.
TO SEE AN AUDACIOUS VISION THAT
THESE GUYS ACTUALLY ARE QUALIFIO
TALK ABOUT, BECAUSE THEY'RE DOIG
IT.
STEVE WEBBER CALLS THE MOVEMET
A MIRACLE. WEBBER LEADS CBNS
UKRAINE OFFICE; WHICH HAS AN
ACTIVE ORPHANS PROMISE OUTREACH.
TWENTY YEARS AGO THERE WAS
SUCH A STIGMA AGAINST THE ORPHAN
THAT CHRISTIANS WOULD FAKE
PREGNANCY BY CARRYING A PILLOW
BEFORE THEY WOULD TAKE AN ORPHA.
TODAY WE'RE PREACHING TAKE THE
ORPHANS HOME IN OUR CHURCHES.
AND THE PUBLIC IS TAKING NOTE.
AT A NATIONALLY TELEVISED EVENT
THAT DREW UKRAINE'S RICH AND
FAMOUS, SVETLANA AND UVGANIE
RECEIVED HERO STATUS, AND HONORD
WITH THE PRIDE OF THE NATION
AWARD FOR THEIR HEART FOR ORPHA.
THERE WAS HARDLY A DRY EYE IN TE
CROWD AS PEOPLE STOOD AND
APPLAUDED.
WE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT ANY AWA.
WE SIMPLE WERE DOING WHAT WAS IN
OUR HEARTS TO DO.
WE HAVE ONLY GOD TO THANK.
HE SHOWS US HOW TO LOVE THE
UNLOVABLE WITHOUT HIM WE
HAVE NO LIFE. WITHOUT HIM MY
CHILDREN HAVE NO HOPE.
WITHOUT HIM THE ORPHANS OF
UKRAINE HAVE NO HOPE.
GEORGETOWN CBN NEWS
KIEV, UKRAINE.
I LOVE THAT LAURA LYNN.
YOU KNOW WHEN YOU LOOK AT
THE SIVA'S AND COMING FROM
AN HIV BACKGROUND, AND VERY
HARD ORGANIZED CRIME, DRUGS
AND EVERYTHING ELSE, AND NOW
THE WORLD IS RECOGNIZING THAT
THEY ARE ALSO CHANGING THE
WORLD ON NATIONAL TV IN
THE UKRAINE. THAT'S POWERFUL.
YOU KNOW WHAT; IT'S NEVER
TOO LATE TO DO SOMETHING
AMAZING TO CHANGE THE WORLD.
THAT'S RIGHT.
RIGHT.
THAT'S LOVE, LOVE IN ACTION.
SO INSPIRING. NOW WE'RE
GOING TO TALKING ABOUT FEAR
TODAY BRIAN, AND I'M WONDERING
WHAT IS A FEAR THAT SORT OF
BOTHERS YOU ON A DAILY BASIS?
OTHER THAN STEPPING HERE WITH
ME?
YOU KNOW WHAT, THAT'S A BIG O.
YEAH.
BUT YOU KNOW ONE OF THE THINGS
AS FAR AS A PASTOR;
IT'S ALWAYS THAT
YOU KNOW THE PEOPLE, AND OTHER
PEOPLE; NOT NECESSARILY MYSELF,
AND MY SCHEDULE THAT I'M NOT
GOING TO MAKE THE GOOD CHOICE
OF THE URGENT, AND ALSO THE
IMPORTANT. BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT
OF THINGS THAT SCREAM AT US
THAT AREN'T NECESSARILY--
YES.
--FOR US TO DEAL WITH RIGHT.
BUT THE IMPORTANT YOU CAN'T, YOU
CAN'T LET THAT DROP.
YES.
WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF?
YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAVE
LEARNED TO LIVE IN THE FEAR OF
GOD. I WANT TO PLEASE HIM.
I WANT TO DO TODAY WHAT HE'S
ASKED ME TO DO. AND SOMETIMES
I MISS IT.
YEAH.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
SURE.
THE END OF THE DAY COMES
AND IT'S LIKE, I HAVE NOT DONE
WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE.
AND THAT IS A FEAR TO ME,
AND I DON'T WANT TO LIVE LIKE
THAT.
SIMILAR TO MINE. SIMILAR
YEAH.
YEP. UP NEXT, DR. GRANT MULLEN
IS HERE WITH SOME ADVICE ON HOW
WE CAN GET OVER FEAR, AND WORRY
BEFORE THEY GET THE BEST OF US.
THAT WILL BE WITH BRIAN.
[MUSIC]
WELCOME. I'VE GOT THE
PRIVILEGE TODAY TO HAVE A
AN IN DEPTH BUT ALSO
INTIMATE CONVERSATION WITH
MY FRIEND. DR. GRANT MULLEN
GRADUATED FROM THE UNIVERSITY
OF TORONTO MEDICAL SCHOOL, AND
ALSO HE IS AFFECTION ALLY KNOWN
AS THE MAN WHO LOVED TO PUT
PEOPLE TO SLEEP. BUT HE'S NOT
PUTTING PEOPLE TO SLEEP NOW.
HE'S ACTUALLY HELPING PEOPLE
TO HAVE A SWEET SLEEP. WOULD
YOU WELCOME TO THE 700 CLUB
CANADA, DR. GRANT MULLEN. SO
GOOD TO BE HERE WITH YOU AGAIN.
>IT'S NICE TO BE BACK WITH YOU
BRIAN.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE LOOKING
GOOD. IT SEEMS LIKE YOU'VE
BEEN TRAVELING AN AWFUL LOT.
THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS HAPPENIG
WITH YOU.
WELL KATHY, AND I TRAVEL
TEACHING SEMINARS ON HOW TO
LIVE A TRANSFORMED LIFE.
NOW THAT'S THAT IS SO
VALUABLE TODAY, BECAUSE WHEN
YOU TALK ABOUT TRANSFORMATION
I THINK WE'RE LIVING IN AN AGE
WHERE IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO
SEE TRANSFORMATION; ESPECIALLY
IN THIS POST MODERN SOCIETY.
THAN ANY OTHER GENERATION,
BECAUSE OF THE TRAUMA THAT
WE EXPERIENCE AS FAR AS WHAT
WE SEE IN THE NEWS. WHAT
HAPPENS IN DAY TO DAY LIFE.
NOW WHAT YOU SPECIALIZE IN
IN THESE CONFERENCES IS REALLY
HELPING PEOPLE UNDERSTANDING
AND UNFOLDING WHAT'S HAPPENING
ON THE INSIDE OF THEIR LIVES.
YEAH, WELL ACTUALLY THE GREAT
REVELATION TO ME WAS THAT WHEN
I REALIZED IN MY
ADULT LIFE IS THAT
GOD WANTED US TO BE MORE THAN
SAVED.
YES.
WELL SEE, I WAS RAISED IN THE
CHURCH IN A CHRISTIAN HOME, AND
SO I KNEW ALL ABOUT SALVATION;
WHICH IS WONDERFUL. BUT I DIDN'T
KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT AFTER
SALVATION. SO GOD'S JUST
REVEALED TO ME; I GUESS
THROUGH AND THE CRISIS
THAT KATHY AND I WENT THROUGH
IN OUR MARRIAGE.
YES.
THAT HE WANTED US TO BE
SAVED, AND TRANSFORMED. SO
HOW DO YOU BE TRANSFORMED?
AND SO THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT
OF OUR SEMINARS IS.
YES.
HOW DO YOU DO THAT AFTER
YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN, HOW DO YOU
BE TRANSFORMED?
YOU KNOW GRANT, ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT I APPRECIATE IS YOU
SAID THAT WE HAD PROBLEMS. I
THINK MANY TIMES THAT PEOPLE
THINK WE HAVE TO FAKE IT TILL
WE MAKE IT. THAT WE DON'T
REALLY HAVE PROBLEMS AS FAR
AS A DOCTOR, PASTOR'S, AND
OTHER PEOPLE. TELL US HOW
DID CHRIST CAPTURE YOUR HEART
FIRST OF ALL. WHAT--
HOW DID I BECOME A CHRISTIAN?
YEAH, BECAUSE A DOCTOR, I MEA,
THAT'S ALMOST LIKE AN OXYMORON.
WELL, I WAS RAISED IN A CHRISN
HOME SO IT WAS THE LOGICAL THING
TO DO.
OKAY.
BUT THEN I HAD A, JUST A
DEMATIC PERSONAL REVELATION
OF THE FATHER'S HEART FOR ME.
YES.
IN WHEN I WAS IN MY FORTIES,
AND THAT JUST CHANGED ME. AND
THAT'S WHEN GOD STARTED TO REVEL
THE PROBLEMS IN MY HEART AND IN
MY MARRIAGE, AND THEN I BECAME
ALIVE TO THIS WHOLE AREA OF THEY
OF TRANSFORMATION.
YES.
AND THAT THE TRANSFORMATION IS
BY THE RENEWING OF OUR MIND.
YES.
AND SO BECAUSE I WAS REALLY
INTERESTED IN MENTAL HEALTH,
GOD JUST SAID, WELL YOU KNOW
THAT I'M IN A PERFECT SPOT
BY UNDERSTANDING MENTAL HEALTH
AND THE SPIRIT WHELM, AND THE
EMOTIONAL WHELM, THAT WE COULD
ACTUALLY LEAD CHRISTIAN'S TO A
GREATER FREEDOM THEY EVER THAN
THEY EVER KNEW WAS POSSIBLE.
BECAUSE WHEN I WALK THROUGH THE
TRANSFORMATION PROCESS I
COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH
DIFFERENT I WAS AT THE END.
YES.
I NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS POSSIB.
AND THEN I THOUGHT, WHY DIDN'T
SOMEONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS
THIRTY YEARS EARLIER.
WELL, YOU KNOW I THINK THERE
ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE
ASKING THE SAME QUESTION RIGHT
NOW. TODAY WE'RE GOING TO BE
FOCUSING ON WORRY AND FEAR.
AND I'D LIKE TO JUMP IN AND
ASK YOU A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.
YOU'VE GOT A FANTASTIC BOOK
EMOTIONALLY FREE, AND IT IS,
IT'S A VALUABLE TOOL. I ENCOURAE
EVERYONE TO GET A COPY OF THIS,
BECAUSE IT IS SO POWERFUL, AND
I'M GLAD THAT I'VE GOT MINE,
AND I DON'T HAVE TO GIVE IT UP.
BUT, YOU KNOW, INSTEAD OF
HAVING ANTS IN OUR PANTS WHEN
WE WERE A LOT YOUNGER, NOW
IT SEEMS LIKE WE HAVE ANTS IN
OUR HEADS. AUTOMATIC NEGATIVE
THINKING SYNDROME. IT MEANS
THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE LIVING IN
A GENERATION WHERE WE GET SAVED
BUT THERE'S STILL SOME PROBLEMS
ON THE INSIDE. GIVE US A
PRACTICAL UNDERSTANDING OF
LET'S SAY A TRANSFORMATION
FOR THE DIM.
>HA, HA YES.
WHAT AREAS ARE WE DEALING
WITH ON THE INSIDE?
YEAH, LET ME GIVE YOU A
REAL EASY TO UNDERSTAND
FRAMEWORK OF HOW TRANSFORMATION
WORKS.
OKAY.
AND LET'S JUST APPLY IT, BECAE
YOU CAN TAKE THIS MODEL AND APPY
IT ALMOST ANYWHERE. BUT LETS
APPLY IT TO FEAR, WORRY, AND
ANXIETY, BECAUSE THAT WAS ONE
OF THE MOST COMMON ISSUES
THAT PEOPLE BROUGHT TO MY
MOOD DISORDER CLINIC. IT'S
JUST HUGE, AND IT'S IN THE
CHRISTIAN, AND NON CHRISTIAN
POPULATION. WELL THE BIBLE
SAYS THAT THERE ARE THREE
PARTS TO HUMANS; BODY,
SOUL, AND SPIRIT.
RIGHT.
AND SOUL AND PERSONALITY
ARE THE SAME THING. SO
BODY, PERSONALITY, AND SPIRIT.
AND IN EACH--THESE THREE AREAS
OF OUR LIFE INFLUENCE HOW WE
THINK AND FEEL; WHICH THEN
WHICH THEN OF COURSE
INFLUENCES OUR EMOTIONS
AND OUR RELATIONSHIPS. AND
SO IF WE REALLY WANT TO COME
TO TRANSFORMATION, AND WE
WANT TO BE FREE OF FEAR. WE
HAVE TO ADDRESS THESE THREE
CATEGORIES.
OKAY.
SO IN THE BODY THERE ARE
PHYSICAL CONDITIONS THAT CAN
MAKE US FEARFUL OR ANXIOUS.
SURE.
AND THOSE ARE THE ANXIETY
DISORDERS.
AND THEY ARE TRIGGERS AS
WELL RIGHT? THAT OPEN UP
THESE ANXIETY DISORDERS?
WELL, COME TO THAT.
OKAY.
BUT SO THAT--THOSE WOULD BE
THE CHEMICAL IMBALANCE MOOD
DISORDERS WHICH REQUIRE
MEDICAL TREATMENT.
OKAY.
AND THEN IN THE SPIRIT WHELM
SATAN HATES OUR GUTS, AND HE'LL
DO ANYTHING TO INTERFERE WITH
THE WAY WE THINK. SO WHAT
HE WANTS TO DO IS INSERT HIS
THOUGHTS INTO OUR MIND IN
A WAY THAT WE WON'T NOTICE
THAT IT CAME FROM HIM TO GET
US UPSET.
OKAY.
AND SO WHEN IT COMES TO FEAR
HE'LL DO ANYTHING TO GIVE US A
THOUGHT TO ERODE OUR TRUST.
BECAUSE WHEN TRUST IS LOST,
FEAR WILL ALWAYS REPLACE IT.
OKAY.
SO THAT'S HIS ROLE IS TO
ALWAYS ERODE YOUR TRUST.
AND THEN IN THE THIRD AREA
IS OUR PERSONALITY, AND OUR
PERSONALITY IS SHAPED BY OUR
EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE, AND SO
OUR EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE MEANS
THE EVENTS OF OUR PAST, AND
MORE IMPORTANTLY THE
CONCLUSIONS THAT WE MADE ABOUT
THOSE EVENTS. SO IF YOU'RE
RAISED IN A FEARFUL HOME BY
FEARFUL PARENTS, THEY WOULD
TEACH YOU HOW TO BE FEARFUL.
SURE.
AND SO FEAR IS A LEARNED
BEHAVIOR. SO IF WE WANT TO
ACTUALLY CONQUER FEAR, WORRY,
AND ANXIETY, WE HAVE TO
ADDRESS ALL THREE PARTS.
OKAY.
SO--
HOW DO WE START WITH THAT
IN A PRACTICAL WAY?
I'M GLAD YOU ASKED THAT. SO
THIS IS WHAT I DID IN MY CLINIC.
THE FIRST THING YOU DO IS AN
ASSESSMENT OF DO YOU HAVE
A CHEMICAL IMBALANCE ANXIETY
DISORDER?
BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US
TO UNDERSTAND IF IT'S--
PHYSICAL.
--ANATOMICAL PHYSIOLOGICAL.
YEAH.
YEAH.
BECAUSE TEN TO FIFTEEN
PERCENT OF THE POPULATION HAS
A CHEMICAL IMBALANCE MOOD
DISORDER, AND EIGHTY PERCENT
ARE UNDIAGNOSED AND
UNTREATED.
IS THAT IN PART BECAUSE OF DE?
WELL, AMONG MEN YES.
OKAY.
WOMEN AREN'T AS MUCH IN
DENIAL. BUT YES. BUT ALSO JUST
LACK OF AWARENESS.
OKAY.
AND SINCE WE DON'T HAVE A TEST
PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL
IF THEY DO HAVE THE CHEMICAL
IMBALANCE. BECAUSE THERE
ISN'T A BLOOD TEST OR AN X-RAY.
RIGHT.
PEOPLE HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO
ACCESS THEM THEMSELVES.
OKAY.
SO HERE'S HOW YOU DO IT.
IF YOU CAN'T SHUT YOUR MIND
OFF. SO THAT'S THE KEY
SYMPTOM TO A MOOD DISORDER.
OKAY.
AND SO I ACTUALLY HAVE THE
CRITERIA OF HOW TO DO A SELF
ASSESSMENT IN THE BOOK, ON
MY WEBSITE; IT'S ALL OVER THE
STUFF I DO. HOW TO ACCESS YOURSF
FOR A MOOD DISORDER. BUT
BASICALLY IF YOU CAN'T SHUT OFF
ANXIOUS THOUGHTS, AND YOU
CAN'T STOP WORRYING OVER MONTHS
OR YEARS, THEN YOU PROBABLY
HAVE AN ANXIETY DISORDER WHICH
IS TREATABLE WITH MEDICATIONS.
OKAY.
SO THAT'S THE FIRST ASSESSMEN.
NOW DO--DOES A PERSON RIGHT
NOW THAT IS LISTENING NEED TO
IDENTIFY A PRACTITIONER THAT
UNDERSTANDS EMOTIONAL DISORDERS
MORE SO THAN JUST A GENERAL
PRACTITIONER IN ORDER TO
GET TO THE ROOT CAUSE OF
THESE THINGS?
WELL, ACTUALLY ANXIETY
DISORDERS ARE SO COMMON.
OKAY.
EVERY GENERAL PRACTITIONER
IN THIS COUNTRY HAS PROBABLY A
QUARTER OF HIS PRACTICE HAS
ANXIETY DISORDER.
OKAY.
SO THEY ARE GPS' TREAT ANXIETY
DISORDER VERY HANDILY.
BEAUTIFUL.
SO IF A PERSON GOES TO MY
WEBSITE, OR GOES TO THE BOOK,
AND DOES THE CHECK LIST OF
SYMPTOMS.
OKAY.
OR THEY FIND THEY CAN'T SHUT
THEIR MIND OFF, THEN TAKE
THAT CHECK LIST TO THEIR DOCTOR,
AND THEY--SEE YOUR GP CAN TREAT
YOU FOR THAT.
EXCELLENT, AND NOW MOVING
NEXT. AFTER YOU'VE IDENTIFIED
YOURSELF. YOU'VE BEEN SELF
ANALYZED; WHAT DO YOU DO NEXT?
SO ASSUMING NOW THAT YOU
DON'T HAVE A CHEMICAL IMBALANCE.
OKAY.
BECAUSE IF YOU DO SEE
YOUR DOCTOR FIRST.
OKAY.
THEN THE SECOND IS, THE
SPIRITUAL EMOTIONAL, OKAY
THEY'RE VERY TIED TOGETHER.
BECAUSE THE DISTURBING
THOUGHTS THAT SATAN WANTS
TO DROP INTO YOUR MIND TO
GET YOU WORRIED ARE ALWAYS
OUT OF YOUR EMOTIONAL
BAGGAGE. SO IN OTHER WORDS,
THE THOUGHTS THAT HE FEEDS
INTO YOUR MIND TO MAKE YOU
ANXIOUS ARE THINGS THAT HE
KNOWS YOU WILL RESPOND TO.
SO THE THINGS THAT WOULD MAKE
ME ANXIOUS; YOU WOULDN'T GIVE
IT A SECOND THOUGHT.
SURE.
SO HE'LL ONLY PICK THINGS
OUT OF YOUR BAGGAGE AND DROP
IT IN YOUR MIND.
OKAY.
AND SO THE WAY YOU COMBAT
THAT IS BY GETTING RID OF
YOUR EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE.
BECAUSE THEN YOU WOULD
DISARM HIM.
YES.
BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING
TO THROW AT YOU.
EXCELLENT.
SO THAT IF YOU HAVE
IF YOU HAD A TRAUMATIC
LIFE EXPERIENCE.
BUT YOU SAID SOMETHING
REALLY FAST. YOU'VE GOT TO
HANDLE YOUR BAGGAGE
YOUR SAYING?
TOTALLY.
YEAH, YOU CAN'T JUST LET THESE
THINGS SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S
NOT THERE. LET'S DENY IT, AND
IT GOES AWAY.
YES, AND THAT IS; WHEN YOUR
TALKING ABOUT DENIAL THAT'S
REALLY WHERE DENIAL LANDS IS
IT'S BAGGAGE ISSUES.
OKAY.
BECAUSE, SEE WE'RE TAUGHT TO
BECOME SAVED. YOU KNOW, OUR
SINS ARE GONE.
YES.
BUT JESUS CAME TO ALSO
GET RID OF OUR BAGGAGE. NOT
JUST OUR SINS. BUT WE DON'T
TALK ABOUT BAGGAGE SO
CHRISTIANS UNFORTUNATELY
ARE STILL CARRYING THEIR
BAGGAGE NEEDLESSLY. SO
ONE OF MY GREAT THEMES IS
JESUS CAME TO TAKE AWAY
YOUR BAGGAGE TOO. YOU
HAVE TO GIVE HIM PERMISSION.
YEAH.
AND YOU CAN'T BE HEALED OF
A PROBLEM YOU DON'T KNOW
YOU HAVE. SO YOU HAVE TO
IDENTIFY IT, AND THEN LET HIM
TAKE IT.
BEAUTIFUL. WE'RE GOING TO BE
HERE ALL WEEK WITH DR. GRANT
MULLENS, AND THIS IS A
GREAT BOOK. EMOTIONALLY
FREE. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
WORRY, AND ALSO ANXIETY. BUT
I WANT YOU TO CALL THE NUMBER
ON THE SCREEN 1-855-759-0700.
WE HAVE SOME PRAYER PARTNERS,
AND THEY ARE STANDING BY TO
HELP YOU IN COMING TO
AGREEMENT WITH YOU. WELL,
UP NEXT ONE MAN CHOICES
FAITH OVER FEAR. SEE HOW IT
SAVED HIS LIFE.
[MUSIC]
TWENTY-SEVEN YEAR OLD
DANIEL FASANO, NEVER SAW
IT COMING.
I DEVELOPED STRANGE SENSATIONS
IN MY CHEST. IT EVENTUALLY
TURNED INTO PAIN, AND IT WAS
RADIATING DOWN MY RIGHT SIDE
INTO MY ARM.
HE DROVE HIMSELF TO THE
EMERGENCY ROOM. THE
DOCTOR ORDERED X-RAYS AND
CT SCANS.
THE DOCTOR CAME BACK AND HE SD
WELL WE FOUND SOMETHING
AND IT'S A RATHER LARGE MASS
IN YOUR CHEST. AND I ASKED
HIM WELL HOW LARGE IS
RATHER LARGE, AND HE
SAID IT'S GRAPEFRUIT SIZE.
AND HE SAID THIS IS VERY
SERIOUS. YOU NEED TO GET
IT EVALUATED IMMEDIATELY.
I HAD TO GO GET A BIOPSY
AND, YOU KNOW, IT TOOK
ABOUT A WEEK OR SO TO GET
THE RESULTS, AND WHEN THE
DOCTOR CALLED ME IT WAS AS HE
FEARED, LYMPHATIC CANCER. IT
WAS SHOCKING. IT WAS SURREAL.
IT DIDN'T QUITE SINK IN AT FIRS.
GETTING THAT NEWS AFTER HAVING
NEVER BEEN SICK BEFORE IN MY
LIFE, IT WAS ALMOST LIKE I WAS
STARRING IN AN EPISODE OF THE
TWILIGHT ZONE. IT WAS THAT
SURREAL.
DANIEL CALLED HIS GIRLFRIEND
ZAHANIE, WHO WAS A MED STUDENT.
IT WAS DEFINITELY A SHOCK,
AND YOU KNOW, YOU HEAR THE WORD
CANCER, AND YOU JUST AUTOMATICAY
ASSOCIATE IT WITH DEATH AND DYI,
AND END OF LIFE. HIS TUMOR WAS O
LARGE THAT WHEN HE HAD SHOWN ME
HIS PET SCAN I HAD LOOKED AT IT
AND I SAID, "OH, WELL THAT'S
YOUR HEART." AND HE GOES,
"ACTUALLY NO, THAT'S MY TUMOR."
IT WASN'T THE CANCER ITSELF TT
WAS THE THREAT. IT WAS THE ACTUL
PHYSICAL SIZE THAT WAS THE THRE.
IT WAS CRUSHING THIS MAJOR ARTE.
WE KIND OF WERE FORCED TO GO
THROUGH CHEMO, AND THE WAY
THE DOCTORS SAID, YOU KNOW,
"WE'RE GOING TO GIVE YOU A FORM
OF CHEMO THAT IS RELATIVELY A
PALLIATIVE FORM. WE DON'T
EXPECT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO
GET BETTER. BUT YOU HAVE TO
DO SOMETHING."
AND THEY WEREN'T SURE IF IT
WAS GOING TO RESPOND. BUT
WITHOUT IT HE SAID I
WOULD BE DEAD WITHIN A MATTER
OF THREE WEEKS TO THREE MONTHS.
IT WAS CRUSHING HIS PULMONARY
ARTERY; WHICH MEANS HIS LUNGS
WERE NOT GETTING BLOOD WHICH
MEANS THERE WAS NO OXYGENATED
BLOOD GOING TO THE REST OF HIS .
SO HE WAS LITERALLY SUFFOCATINGO
DEATH BECAUSE OF THIS TUMOR.
DANIEL STARTED HIS SIX MONTH
REGIME OF VARIOUS TYPES OF
CHEMO.
MY WHOLE BODY WAS JUST
IN PAIN. ALMOST LIKE BURNING
ON THE INSIDE OF ME. I WAS TOO
WEAK TO WALK. YOU KNOW YOUR
GI TRACK AND YOUR GUMS, EVERYTHG
GETS SORE.
HE COULDN'T KEEP ANYTHING
DOWN, AND HE WAS JUST DRY
HEAVING TO THE POINT WHERE
HE WAS PROBABLY VOMITING
BILE, BECAUSE IT WAS GREEN.
MY HEART JUST BROKE FOR HIM,
BECAUSE I WAS LIKE, GOSH.
I WAS LIKE GOD, I WILL TAKE HIS
PLACE. JUST LET ME DO ANYTHING
I CAN TO TAKE HIS SUFFERING AWA,
AND THERE IS NOTHING. YOU KNOW,
AND YOU TRY TO HAVE FAITH THAT
THERE'S GOING TO BE GLORY
THAT'S GOING TO COME OUT OF
IT, BUT YOU DON'T IN THAT MOMEN.
YOU JUST DON'T. SO THOSE WERE,
THOSE WERE SOME DARK MOMENTS.
FRIENDS AND FAMILY VISITED
DANIEL IN THE HOSPITAL.
I HAD SO MANY PEOPLE
PRAYING FOR ME. I HAD PEOPLE
PROPHESYING TO ME SAYING
THIS THING WAS BORN TO DIE.
IT'S GOING TO BE A TESTIMONY
TO THE LORD.
JUST PRAYING FOR HIM AND
FOR US, AND FOR HIS PARENTS,
AND YOU JUST FELT THE WHOLE
WEEK LIKE THEY WERE THERE
WITH YOU. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE--
YOU JUST FELT LIKE THERE WERE
ANGELS PRAYING FOR YOU THE
WHOLE TIME. YOU JUST FELT
THEIR PRESENCE, AND IT WAS
AMAZING.
PEOPLE ANOINTING ME WITH OIL,
AND PRAYING OVER ME, BOTH IN
THE HOSPITAL, AND AFTER I GOT
OUT AND I REMEMBER THE
PASTOR SAYING, "YOU NEED TO
JUST CRY OUT TO GOD AND LET
HIM KNOW THAT YOU NEED
HIM." AND BECAUSE I WAS
REALLY HOLDING EVERYTHING
INSIDE, AND IT WAS AT THAT POINT
WHEN MY FRIENDS WERE LAYING
HANDS ON ME IN THE CHURCH, I
JUST DROPPED DOWN ON MY
KNEES, AND JUST THE FLOOD
GATES OPENED. I WAS CRYING
HYSTERICALLY. JUST CRYING OUT
TO GOD, SAYING, "GOD, I NEED
YOU. I NEED YOU." AND I
HAVE NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE.
THAT WAS A BIG STEP FOR ME.
DANIEL WENT BACK TO THE
HOSPITAL FOR HIS NEXT
TREATMENT.
THE TUMOR HAD GOTTEN
BIGGER. IT WAS CRUSHING MY
PULMONARY ARTERY. I WAS
SUFFOCATING, AND I REMEMBER
BEING IN THE HOSPITAL BED
LITERALLY DYING, AND I
REMEMBER JUST LOOKING UP TO
GOD, AND SAYING, YOU KNOW
WHAT? IF YOU WANT TO TAKE ME
I'LL GO WITH YOU. I KNOW I'M
YOUR CHILD. YOUR WORD SAYS
THAT TO ABSENT FROM THE
BODY IS TO PRESENT WITH
THE LORD, AND I BELIEVE
THAT. AND I SAID IF
YOU WANT TO HEAL ME
AND LET ME LIVE I'LL JUST
DO MY BEST TO SHARE WITH
THE WORLD YOUR GOODNESS,
YOUR GRACE, YOUR LOVE, YOUR
MERCY, AND YOUR POWER.
AND THAT WAS REALLY A TURNING
POINT FOR ME. LEARNING TO
LET GO, AND TO JUST TRUST
THE LORD.
DANIEL WENT IN FOR TESTS
AT THE MIDWAY POINT OF HIS
CHEMO.
HALFWAY THROUGH THE TREATMENTS
WHEN THEY TOOK THAT SECOND SCAN;
WHICH THEY WERE JUST HOPING THE
TUMOR WOULD BE SMALLER, AND IT
CAME BACK COMPLETELY NEGATIVE
LIKE JUST GONE. I REMEMBER
WALKING OUT OF THE RADIOLOGY
PLACE; IT WAS JUST BEFORE
CHRISTMAS. I'M LOOKING UP
TO HEAVEN IT WAS A
BEAUTIFUL DAY. CRYSTAL CLEAR
BLUE SKY, AND JUST TEARS
RUNNING DOWN MY EYES, AND
I WAS JUST SAYING, THANK YOU LO.
THANK YOU. THAT'S THE BEST
CHRISTMAS GIFT I EVER HAD.
THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN. I
MEAN I SAW THAT TUMOR. IT
WAS ENORMOUS, AND I SAID,
IT DOESN'T JUST GO AWAY. WELL
NOT ONLY WAS IT NOT THERE;
THERE WASN'T EVEN SCAR
TISSUE. USUALLY WHEN TUMORS
RETRACT THERE IS SOME TYPE OF
SCAR TISSUE THAT'S LEFT BEHIND,
AND THERE WASN'T ANYTHING.
WORDS CAN'T EVEN DESCRIBE THE
FEELING, I MEAN I'M WALKING ON R
COMING OUT OF THIS PLACE HOLDING
THIS PICTURE IN MY HAND OF A
COMPLETELY NORMAL PET SCAN
WHEREAS THREE MONTHS EARLIER
I HAD THIS OMINOUS TUMOR
THREATENING MY VERY LIFE.
WORD'S CAN'T DESCRIBE THE
FEELING, YOU KNOW, OF BEING
ABLE TO TELL MY FAMILY, AND
MY FRIENDS THAT I'M GOING
TO BE OKAY. IT WAS JUST
AMAZING.
DANIEL AND ZAHANIE MARRIED
IN 2003. ZAHANIE GRADUATED
FROM MED SCHOOL IN 2007. TODAY
SHE'S A PODIATRIST, AND DANIEL
IS THE PRODUCER AND HOST OF
DEVINE INTERVENTION, A POPULAR
RADIO SHOW ABOUT MODERN DAY
MIRACLES.
IT WAS THE FAITH OF MY
FRIENDS AND MY FAMILY
WHO CAME AROUND ME, AND
JUST GIRDED ME UP AND PRAYED
FOR ME, AND I'M REMINDED
ALL OF THE TIME OF THE STORY
AND THE GOSPEL OF MARK; I
BELIEVE IT IS, WHERE THE FOUR
FRIENDS ARE CARRYING THE
PARALYTIC FRIEND TO JESUS, AND
THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE
CROWD, AND THEY HAVE TO GO
UP ON THE ROOF AND LOWER
HIM DOWN, BECAUSE OF THE
CROWD, AND IT SAYS THAT WHEN
JESUS SAW THEIR FAITH HE
HEALED THE PARALYTIC. I
DON'T KNOW WHETHER THE
PARALYTIC HAD FAITH OR NOT.
BUT I KNOW HIS FRIENDS DID.
AND SOMETIMES THAT'S WHAT
YOU NEED. YOU NEED PEOPLE
AROUND YOU TOO REALLY GIRD
YOU UP, PREY FOR YOU, AND BRING
YOU INTO THE PRESENCE OF JESUS.
AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED IN
MY CASE.
YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU LOOK
AT DAN'S STORY IT IS A
POWERFUL TESTIMONY THAT
JESUS STILL HEALS TODAY.
YES HE DOES, AND YOU KNOW
A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE
SAY, WELL THAT WAS WHAT
HAPPENED BACK IN THE OLD
DAYS. YOU KNOW, JESUS
WOULD TOUCH PEOPLE, AND
THEY WOULD BE HEALED. HE
WAS HERE ON EARTH, BUT TODAY
THERE ARE MIRACLE STORIES, AND
WE BRING THEM TO YOU.
UM-HUM, AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
THERE'S A LOT OF SHOWS ON TV, AD
THESE DAYS PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR
AMAZING STORIES, AND INSPIRING
STORIES, BUT WE AT THE 700 CLUB
CANADA GIVE YOU TRUE STORIES.
WE GIVE YOU THE POWER OF GOD
WORKING TODAY. JESUS LOVES
CHANGED LIVES, AND THIS IS
CHANGING THE NATION. WE
INVEST IN BRINGING THE GOD
STORIES OF OUR DAY SO THAT
YOU AND OTHERS WHO MAY BE
STRUGGLING TO OVERCOME
TREMENDOUS DIFFICULTIES OR FIND
HOPE, PEACE, POWER TO GET
THROUGH IT, BECAUSE OF WHAT
YOU SEE RIGHT HERE. YOU KNOW,
I WISH I COULD SAY THAT IT WAS
EASY TO MAKE THIS ALL HAPPEN,
BUT THE TRUTH IS IT REQUIRES
SACRIFICE AND COMMITMENT
ON THE PART OF EVERYONE AT
THE 700 CLUB CANADA. YOU
KNOW, IT'S COSTLY, BUT NECESSARY
TO GET THE MESSAGE OF JESUS

NATION OF CANADA. YOU KNOW,

IT WAS THE MOST ANGELIC,
THE MOST--
PEACEFUL, SAFE, LOVING PLACE.
I WASN'T AFRAID.
THERE WAS NOT A FEELING OF
TIME.
I WAS COMFORTED. I HAD A PEAC,
AND JOY I'VE NEVER HAD.
I WAS ABSOLUTELY
OVERWHELMED BY THIS SENSATION
OF BEING HOME.
YOU JUST CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE.
