>> YOU AND I UNDERSTAND
THAT CHRISTIANS

HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY.

Announcer: NEXT,
JAMES AND BETTY ROBISON,

ALONG WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH, STRESS THE IMPORTANCE

OF GETTING INVOLVED IN
CHOOSING OUR NATION'S LEADERS.

>> MOST EVERYONE IS TELLING ME
THAT THIS MAY BE

THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION
IN OUR NATION'S HISTORY.

HERE IS WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO
TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Announcer: STAY TUNED
AND DISCOVER WHAT YOU CAN DO

TO SHAPE THE FUTURE
OF OUR NATION.

♪

James: WELCOME!
WELCOME TO ALL OF YOU.

WE WELCOME YOU TO LIFE TODAY!
I'M JAMES ROBISON.

BETTY AND I ARE GRATEFUL
FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY

TO SPEAK TO YOU.
I THINK WE'RE AT ONE OF

THE MOST PIVOTAL,
CRITICAL MOMENTS

IN OUR NATION'S HISTORY.
THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE

WATCHING US ALL OVER THE WORLD
MUST UNDERSTAND THAT

I'M REFERENCING NOT ONLY
WHAT'S GOING ON ALL OVER

THE WORLD AS FAR AS SPIRITUAL
NEED BUT IN OUR OWN NATION.

WE'RE FACING A VERY
IMPORTANT MOMENT.

I'M ACTUALLY TRYING TO FOCUS
THE ATTENTION OF

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NOT JUST
ON AN UPCOMING ELECTION

FOR NATIONAL LEADERS BUT
ON A DIRECTION FOR THE NATION

BECAUSE WE NEED
A COURSE CORRECTION.

WE NEED TO STOP
DIGGING DITCHES.

WE NEED TO STOP WALKING
IN BLINDNESS; SO OFTEN AS

BLIND LEADERS LEADING THE BLIND
INTO A DITCH OF DEBT AND DEFEAT

AND DESPAIR AND DEPRESSION
AND DIVISION AND DISSENSION.

WE NEED TO OFFER HEALING.
I HAVE ON MY LAPEL

A CHRISTIAN VOTE PIN.
I'M OFFERING THE CHRISTIAN

VOTE PIN, THERE'S ACTUALLY
A WEB SITE WHERE YOU COULD

DIRECT YOUR FRIENDS
TO THE WEB SITE.

TODAY HOWEVER I WILL GLADLY
SEND YOU TWO OF THE PINS

IF YOU WILL ASK FOR THE BOOK,
INDIVISIBLE, WHICH I BELIEVE IS

A TEXTBOOK OUT OF THE VALLEY,
OUT OF THE DITCH,

OUT OF THE ERROR OF DEFEAT
AND THE DEBT AND THE DIVISION

AND OFFERING THE SOLUTIONS.
AND OF ALL THINGS, BETTY,

I WROTE THIS AS A PROTESTANT
EVANGELICAL, HIGHLY VISIBLE

WITH A CATHOLIC PHILOSOPHER,
JAY RICHARDS.

AND BOTH THE CATHOLIC LEADERS
AND THE PROTESTANT LEADERS

ACROSS THE BOARD EMBRACED IT
AND ENDORSED IT.

IT'S AN IMPORTANT TIME FOR YOU
TO GET THIS.

YOU SAY OKAY, WHAT ARE
THE ANSWERS TO ALL

THE SOCIAL ISSUES?
WHAT ARE THE ANSWERS

TO MARRIAGE AND FAMILY?
WHAT ABOUT POVERTY

AND HOW WE ADDRESS IT?
WHAT ABOUT EDUCATION?

HOW DO WE CORRECT THESE THINGS?
WHAT ABOUT THE ECONOMY

AND HOW DO WE ADDRESS IT?
IT'S ALL HERE.

WE'LL GLADLY SEND IT TO YOU.
INTERESTINGLY, WE'LL SEND IT

TO YOU IF YOU'LL SIMPLY
HELP US RESCUE YOUNG GIRLS

AND WOMEN FROM BEING
TRAFFICKED IN THE SEX TRADE.

SO WE'RE ASKING YOU
TO HAVE A PART IN THAT.

BETTY, YOU AND I UNDERSTAND
THAT CHRISTIANS HAVE

A RESPONSIBILITY AND YOU
AND I HAVE BEEN APPALLED

TO KNOW THROUGH SURVEYS --
NOW THINK ABOUT THIS.

JUST LISTEN TO ME,
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT YOU

HEAR THIS -- ESPECIALLY,
I WANT YOU TO ZERO IN ON ME

FOR A MOMENT BECAUSE I WANT
TO TALK VERY DIRECTLY TO YOU

AS THOUGH I WAS SEATED
ACROSS THE ROOM WHERE WE WERE

REAL CLOSE OR PERHAPS IT'S
TO AN ENTIRE CONGREGATION.

NOW LISTEN VERY CLOSELY,
AS BELIEVERS, AS PEOPLE

OF FAITH, WE HAVE BEEN LEFT
HERE AS WITNESSES OF HIM

WITH A COMMISSION TO MAKE
DISCIPLES NOT ONLY

OF INDIVIDUALS, NOT MERELY
OF A CHURCH FAMILY

BUT OF THE NATIONS.
IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE'RE GOING

TO BE AN ANSWER TO THE PRAYER
THAT JESUS TAUGHT US TO PRAY

AND THE PRAYER THAT
HE PRAYED IN JOHN 17,

THAT WE BE ONE WITH THE FATHER
AND PERFECTED IN SUPERNATURAL

UNITY WITH ONE ANOTHER,
BUT ALSO THE MODEL PRAYER

WHICH WE SO OFTEN CALL
THE LORD'S PRAYER AND THAT

INCREDIBLE PHRASE THAT SAYS
"THY KINGDOM COME,

THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH
AS IT IS IN HEAVEN."

NOW WAIT A MINUTE,
NOT IN HEAVEN SOME DAY WHEN

THERE IS NO MORE CHALLENGE.
IN OTHER WORDS, WHEN THERE

WOULD BE NO NEED TO PUT ON
THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD

BECAUSE THERE IS NO CONFLICT.
NO NEED TO CALL US

"MORE THAN CONQUERORS" BECAUSE
THERE HAS BEEN NO BATTLE

TO WIN, NO ENEMY, NO OBSTACLE
TO OVERCOME.

HE HAS LEFT US HERE
AS WITNESSES.

AND INTERESTINGLY,
IN THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT,

WHEN HE TALKED ABOUT
OUR ATTITUDES, WHICH GOD KNOWS

WE NEED A LESSON IN ATTITUDES
AMONG BELIEVERS AND CERTAINLY

AMONG POLITICIANS AND LEADERS
NATIONALLY, WE NEED A HEALING

OF OUR ATTITUDE, AND
THE DISSENSION AND DIVISION,

WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT IT IS TO HAVE DIALOGUE

AND DEBATE AND DISCUSSIONS THAT
LEAD TO MEANINGFUL SOLUTIONS.

IN THAT SERMON ON THE MOUNT,
HE SAID TO US AS BELIEVERS,

"YOU ARE HERE AS SALT
AND LIGHT."

IF YOU UNDERSTAND ANYTHING
ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE TWO

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT SALT
IS UNQUESTIONABLY,

THROUGHOUT ALL HISTORY,
IT IS A PRESERVATIVE.

IT PRESERVES THE PRECIOUS.
OF COURSE, IT ADDS AND ENHANCES

FLAVOR AND CERTAINLY,
CHRISTIANS SHOULD ENHANCE

EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE,
BUT WE SHOULD CERTAINLY

FULFILL THE MAIN QUALITY
AND CHARACTERISTIC AND THAT'S

PRESERVING THE PRECIOUS,
PROTECTING THE INNOCENT.

WHAT ABOUT THE PRECIOUSNESS
OF LIFE?

ARE WE DOING IT WELL?
WHAT ABOUT THE MOST INNOCENT,

HELPLESS IN THE WOMB?
HOW SAFE IS THAT ANYMORE?

SHOULD THAT MATTER TO THE SALT?
AND THE LIGHT?

WHAT DOES LIGHT DO?
THE MOMENT LIGHT COMES ON

YOU SEE EVERYTHING THAT'S
OUT OF ORDER AND OUT OF PLACE;

YOU CAN CORRECT IT
OR YOU CAN NEGLECT IT.

BUT AT LEAST IT REVEALS
THE SITUATION, IT REVEALS

THE WAY OUT OF THE WILDERNESS.
IT REVEALS ANSWERS.

JESUS SAID, "YOU ARE A LIGHT
AND DON'T HIDE IT."

NOW THINK ABOUT THIS A MOMENT.
CHRISTIANS, YOU SAY,

"HOW DO YOU GET IT
UNDER A COVERING?"

HE SAID, "DON'T PUT IT
UNDER A BUSHEL, DON'T PUT IT

UNDER A COVER."
HOW MIGHT WE AS CHRISTIANS

HIDE THE LIGHT?
WE SIMPLY LIVE IN THE LIGHT

AND RADIANCE OF GOD'S PRESENCE
IN OUR FAMILY, OUR SITUATION,

OUR CHURCH BUT WE DON'T
PIERCE THE DARKNESS.

WE DON'T LOOK BEYOND
OUR LITTLE COMFORTABLE WORLD

AND BEGIN TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
IN A WORLD THAT'S UPSIDE DOWN

IN ITS WORLDVIEW
AND ITS DIRECTION.

YOU KNOW WHAT JESUS SAID ABOUT
SALT THAT LOSES IT EFFECT?

HE SAID IT IS GOOD FOR NOTHING
BUT TO BE TRAMPLED

UNDER THE FEET OF MEN.
WOULD YOU PLEASE CONSIDER

THE FACT THAT MUCH THAT
IS SACRED AND PRECIOUS IS BEING

TRAMPLED UNDER THE FEET OF MEN?
WE MAKE MOCKERIES TODAY

OF CHRISTIAN BUSINESSMEN.
WE'RE GOING TO SIT BACK

AND TOLERATE AN ASSAULT
ON EVERYTHING THAT IS PRECIOUS,

OUR FREEDOMS,
OUR OPPORTUNITIES,

AND WE'RE GOING TO CREATE
MORE CLASS WARFARE UNTIL

WE ARE NOT ONLY CONCERNED
ABOUT THE GREED OF THE FARMER

AND THE FACT THAT HE THINKS
TOO MUCH ABOUT HIMSELF

BY BUILDING ONLY BIGGER BARNS,
EVEN THOUGH HE'S PROVIDED JOBS

AND OPPORTUNITIES
AND A HARVEST,

BUT HE'S WRAPPED UP IN HIMSELF
AND JESUS SAYS HE IS A FOOL.

NOW WE'RE NOT ONLY GOING
TO SAY GREED IS A PROBLEM,

WE'RE GOING TO CONDEMN
THE FERTILE FIELDS

OF OPPORTUNITY, WE'RE GOING
TO DESTROY THE POSSIBILITY

OF HAVING THE MEANS
AND WHEREWITHAL TO ADDRESS

ANY LEGITIMATE NEED.
AND BY THE WAY, IF THERE IS

A LEGITIMATE NEED THAT NEEDS
TO BE ADDRESSED, SHOULD IT

NOT BE ADDRESSED BY EVERYONE
WHO SAYS THAT'S A PROBLEM?

SHOULD WE NOT ALL SOMEHOW
WANT TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY

RATHER THAN HANDING IT OFF
TO SOMEBODY ELSE THAT WE CAN

TEACH EVERYBODY ELSE
TO RESENT AND HATE?

RIGHT NOW, 68 YEARS I'VE BEEN
ON THIS PLANET, WE FACE

THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISION
IN THE UPCOMING ELECTION

IN MY LIFETIME
AND IT'S ABOUT PRINCIPLE,

IT'S ABOUT WORLDVIEWS.
HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH PERSONS

OR PARTIES BUT RATHER
BELIEF SYSTEMS.

I WANT YOU TO LISTEN TO
A PASTOR DO WHAT I THINK

IS GOING TO HAVE TO HAPPEN
IF AMERICA IS GOING

TO BE HEALED.
I WANT YOU TO LISTEN

TO PASTOR DAVID JEREMIAH.
HE IS A GREAT BIBLE TEACHER,

A GREAT AUTHOR.
HE HAS A TREMENDOUS

TELEVISION MINISTRY; PASTOR OF
SHADOW MOUNTAIN CHURCH

IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA,
THE SAN DIEGO AREA.

I WANT YOU TO LISTEN TO
A CHARGE THAT HE GAVE

NOT ONLY TO HIS CHURCH BUT
TO THE CHURCH, TO THE COMMUNITY

OF FAITH HERE IN AMERICA,
AND I BELIEVE AROUND THE WORLD.

LISTEN TO PASTOR
DAVID JEREMIAH.

I SUGGEST THAT YOU PLAY THIS
ON SUNDAY, ON SATURDAYS

IF YOU MEET ON THE SABBATH.
I SUGGEST YOU PLAY THIS

IN YOUR CHURCHES.
YOU CAN PULL IT DOWN

OFF OF LIFETODAY.ORG.
YOU MAY WANT TO PLAY EVERYTHING

YOU'VE JUST HEARD
AND END WITH THIS.

HERE'S PASTOR DAVID JEREMIAH.

>> JUST A FEW DAYS AGO,
WE PAUSED TO CELEBRATE

236 YEARS OF FREEDOM
AS AMERICANS.

HERE IN SAN DIEGO,
IN THE CHURCH THAT I PASTOR,

WE CELEBRATED WITH STIRRING
PATRIOTIC MUSIC, PAGEANTRY,

AND INDOOR FIREWORKS.
WE ALSO PLACED OVER 1,000

MEDALS OF HONOR AROUND
THE NECKS OF OUR VETERANS

AND THOSE CURRENTLY SERVING
IN THE MILITARY.

[ Cheers & Applause ]
THIS YEAR AMONG THOSE

WE HONORED WERE
21 WOUNDED WARRIORS

FROM THE NAVAL HOSPITAL.
SEVERAL SURVIVING HEROES

FROM PEARL HARBOR,
AND A YOUNG CORPSMAN

WHO HAS SERVED FIVE TOURS
OF DUTY IN IRAQ,

ONE IN AFGHANISTAN,
AND WAS HEADED BACK

TO AFGHANISTAN FOR
HIS SEVENTH APPOINTMENT.

EACH YEAR, AS I WATCH
THESE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN

COME FORWARD TO RECEIVE
OUR GRATITUDE, I WONDER

IF WHAT WE HAVE ALLOWED
TO HAPPEN IN OUR COUNTRY

IS WORTHY OF THEIR SACRIFICE.
TODAY, AMERICA SEEMS TO HAVE

LOST HER WAY.
WALL STREET COLUMNIST,

PEGGY NOONAN SUMS IT UP BEST
WHEN SHE WRITES THAT

"THERE IS ACROSS AMERICA
A SENSE THAT THE WHEELS

ARE COMING OFF THE TROLLEY
AND THE TROLLEY IS OFF

THE TRACKS AND HURDLING FORWARD
TOWARD AN UNKNOWN DESTINATION;

THAT IN SOME DEEP
AND FUNDAMENTAL WAY

THINGS HAVE BROKEN DOWN
AND CAN'T BE FIXED OR

WON'T BE FIXED ANY TIME SOON.
FINANCIALLY, WE ARE IN

A DEEP HOLE AND CONTINUE
TO DIG THAT HOLE DEEPER.

PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR HOMES
AND ALONG WITH

LOSING THEIR HOMES,
MANY HAVE LOST THEIR HOPE.

SPIRITUALLY, WE HAVE
MARGINALIZED THE BIBLE.

WE'VE TRIVIALIZED MARRIAGE
AND WE HAVE NEUTRALIZED

THE CHURCH.
AMERICA TODAY IS IN

GREAT TURMOIL.
IT FEELS LIKE THE SOUL

OF OUR NATION HAS
BEEN TAKEN FROM US."

NOW, MOST OF US HERE
ARE FULLY AWARE OF

THE PRECARIOUS SITUATION
IN WHICH WE FIND OURSELVES

ECONOMICALLY, SPIRITUALLY,
AND POLITICALLY.

AND, YET, AT THE SAME TIME
IF WE'RE HONEST, WE FEEL

RATHER POWERLESS
TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

NOW, I UNDERSTAND THAT FEELING
OF HELPLESSNESS BUT

I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT
WE ARE NOT HELPLESS.

IN THIS ELECTION WE WILL
DETERMINE WHO THE MEN

AND WOMEN WILL BE WHO
WILL LEAD US IN THIS

CRITICAL HOUR OF OUR NATION.
MOST EVERYONE IS TELLING ME

THAT THIS MAY BE
THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION

IN OUR NATION'S HISTORY.
HERE IS WHAT YOU AND I CAN DO

TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
FIRST OF ALL, WE CAN PRAY.

THE OLD TESTAMENT TEACHES US
THAT IF WE HUMBLE OURSELVES

AND PRAY, GOD WILL HEAR FROM
HEAVEN AND HEAL OUR LAND.

AND THE NEW TESTAMENT ASSURES
THAT THE FERVENT PRAYERS

OF RIGHTEOUS MEN CAN
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

YES, WE CAN PRAY.
AND SECONDLY, WE CAN REGISTER

AND VOTE.
IN THE LAST ELECTION,

LESS THAN HALF OF THOSE
WHO ARE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE

WERE REGISTERED.
AND OF THOSE WHO DID REGISTER,

LESS THAN HALF OF THEM
ACTUALLY WENT TO THE POLLS

AND VOTED.
OUR YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN GIVE

THEIR LIMBS AND THEIR LIVES
TO ASSURE OUR FREEDOM

AND WE DON'T EVEN
TROUBLE OURSELVES TO VOTE.

NO WONDER WE ARE IN THE MESS
WE ARE IN.

SOME SAY TO ME THAT
THEY DON'T VOTE BECAUSE

THEY DON'T BELIEVE THAT
ONE VOTE MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE.

BUT THE TRUTH IS YOU ARE YOU,
THE ONLY YOU IN THE WORLD.

EDWARD EVERETT HALE PUT IT
THIS WAY, "I AM ONLY ONE

BUT STILL I AM ONE.
I CANNOT DO EVERYTHING

BUT I CAN DO SOMETHING,
AND I WILL NOT REFUSE TO DO

THE SOMETHING I CAN DO."
HISTORY IS FULL OF STORIES

OF SINGLE INDIVIDUALS
MAKING A DIFFERENCE.

THINK OF THE MANY MILITARY
BATTLES THAT TURNED

ON THE HEROISM OF ONE MAN.
THINK OF THE MEN AND WOMEN

OF THE BIBLE AND THE MEN
AND WOMEN OF HISTORY WHO

BELIEVED IN THE POWER OF ONE
AND CHANGED THE WORLD.

IF WE ARE HONEST, THE REAL
REASON WE DON'T VOTE

IS SIMPLY THIS.
WE ARE INDIFFERENT, AND YET,

WE ARE SO VOCAL AND CRITICAL
WHEN THINGS DO NOT TURN OUT

THE WAY WE WANT THEM TO.
SEVERAL YEARS AGO DURING

A CLASS IN POLITICAL SCIENCE
IN A CHRISTIAN COLLEGE,

THERE WAS AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT
OF COMPLAINING OVER THE CITY

POLITICIANS THAT HAD BEEN
ELECTED IN THE RECENT ELECTION.

YET WHEN THE PROFESSOR ASKED
THE STUDENTS TO RAISE

THEIR HANDS IF THEY HAD VOTED,
ONLY TWO OF THEM RAISED

THEIR HANDS AND THE REST
OF THE CLASS ADMITTED

THEY HAD NOT EVEN REGISTERED.
WELL, THE PROFESSOR TOLD

THE CLASS FOR THE REST
OF THE SEMESTER,

IF YOU DIDN'T VOTE,
YOU HAVE LOST YOUR RIGHT

TO COMPLAIN IN THIS CLASS.
YEARS LATER THE STUDENTS

STILL REMEMBERED THAT CLASS.
AS CHRISTIANS, THE BIBLE

TELLS US THAT WE ARE TO BE
SALT AND LIGHT IN THE WORLD

AND THE TIME HAS COME FOR US
TO LET OUR VOICES BE HEARD

AND OUR VOTES BE COUNTED.
THIS TIME WHEN YOU VOTE,

DON'T VOTE
YOUR GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION.

DON'T VOTE YOUR RELIGIOUS
DENOMINATION.

DON'T VOTE YOUR POLITICAL
AFFILIATION.

DON'T VOTE YOUR RACIAL
IDENTIFICATION.

DON'T EVEN VOTE YOUR UNION
OBLIGATION.

THIS TIME, WHEN YOU VOTE,
VOTE YOUR VALUES.

VOTE YOUR BELIEFS.
VOTE YOUR CONVICTIONS.

AND IF CANDIDATES WANT
YOUR VOTE, LET THEM EARN IT

THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.
LET THEM MAKE COMMITMENTS

TO YOUR VALUES AND LET THEM
KNOW THAT YOU INTEND

TO HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE.
OVER THE LAST YEARS

I'VE TRAVELED, I HAVE BEEN
ASKED THIS QUESTION OVER

AND OVER AGAIN.
"DR. JEREMIAH, DO YOU THINK

GOD IS FINISHED WITH AMERICA?"
BUT THAT IS THE WRONG QUESTION.

THE RIGHT QUESTION IS:
IS AMERICA FINISHED WITH GOD?

OVER THESE NEXT DAYS AS
WE PRAY AND REGISTER AND VOTE,

WE CAN SEND A STRONG MESSAGE
TO THE WATCHING WORLD

THAT WE ARE STILL
ONE NATION UNDER GOD.

I'M DAVID JEREMIAH
AND I APPROVE OF THIS MESSAGE.

James: EVERY PASTOR IN AMERICA
THAT HAS THE FATHER'S HEART

AND THE SHEPHERD'S HEART
NEEDS TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE

TO TAKE A STAND.
JESUS SAID -- NOW THINK ABOUT

THIS -- TO HIS FOLLOWERS,
HIS DISCIPLES, THAT INCLUDES

THOSE OF US WHO CLAIM HIM
AS OUR LORD AND OUR SAVIOR,

GOD AS OUR FATHER
WHO BELIEVE FAITH IS IMPORTANT,

JESUS SAID WE'RE NOT ONLY SALT
AND LIGHT BUT I SEND YOU AS

SHEEP IN THE MIDST OF WOLVES.
THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE

A CHURCH PICNIC
OR A WALK IN THE PARK.

IT SOUNDS LIKE WE'RE GOING
INTO CONFLICT THAT NECESSITATES

THAT THE LORD BE OUR SHEPHERD,
THAT HE PREPARE A TABLE

BEFORE US IN THE PRESENCE
OF ALL ACCUSERS AND ENEMIES,

THAT HE GIVES US ALL THAT
WE NEED TO FACE

EVERY CHALLENGE.
IN THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD

WE FEAR NO EVIL, WE PIERCE
THE DARKNESS, WE PRESERVE

AND PROTECT THE PRECIOUS.
REGISTER AND VOTE.

I WOULD LOVE TO SEND YOU
THE CHRISTIAN VOTE PINS.

I WOULD LOVE TO SEND YOU
THE BOOK INDIVISIBLE.

THIS BECAME IMMEDIATELY
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER.

MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT
IT COULD CHANGE THE COURSE

OF OUR NATION.
I BELIEVE IT.

I'M ASKING YOU TO GET IT.
HERE'S WHAT WE'RE ASKING YOU

TO DO TO GET IT.
YOU CAN GO TO THE BOOKSTORE

AND GET IT, YOU CAN GO
ONLINE AND GET IT.

BUT IF YOU WOULD SIMPLY HELP US
AS DISCIPLES OF JESUS

REACH OUT TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE
BEEN FORSAKEN, WHO HAVE BEEN

SOLD INTO BONDAGE OF ALL THINGS
IN SEX TRAFFICKING,

AS LITTLE CHILDREN THAT HAVE
BEEN PREYED ON AND WITH

PROMISES TO IMPOVERISHED
FAMILIES THAT THEY'RE GOING

TO TAKE THE CHILDREN,
THESE PREDATORS AND GIVE THEM

A FUTURE AND THEN THEY TAKE
THEM INTO THIS TRAFFICKING,

WE CAN SET THEM FREE.
ALL OVER THE WORLD WE HAVE

IN PLACE THE MISSION WORKERS
AND RELIEF WORKERS

AND WE'RE BUILDING THE HOMES
AND THE PLACES TO RESCUE THESE.

I WANT YOU TO WATCH BUT THEN
I WANT YOU TO HELP US RESCUE.

LISTEN TO THIS,
SOME CONCERNED CHRISTIANS,

SOME CARING PEOPLE SAID,
"IF YOU'LL HELP

WE'LL MATCH YOUR GIFT.
WHATEVER YOU DO

WILL BE DOUBLED."
TWICE THE IMPACT.

I WANT YOU TO WATCH CLOSELY.

Announcer: HUMAN TRAFFICKERS TARGET INNOCENT CHILDREN

WHO THEN
BECOME ENSLAVED

IN A MULTIBILLION DOLLAR
A YEAR INDUSTRY

CALLED THE SEX SLAVE TRADE.

>> IMAGINE THIS,
ONE GIRL TAKEN
FROM HER FAMILY,

WHETHER SHE IS KIDNAPPED
OR TRICKED.

SHE IS SEXUALLY ABUSED
OVER AND OVER AGAIN,

MAYBE EIGHT
TO TEN CUSTOMERS

THAT SHE MAY HAVE
TO SERVICE IN ONE DAY.

>> WE'RE FIGHTING FOR CHILDREN
WHO CAN'T FIGHT FOR THEMSELVES,

CHILDREN THAT WOULD BE
OTHERWISE USED IN THE SEX TRADE

OR BE BOUGHT AND SOLD
LIKE ANIMALS

FOR MONETARY GAIN.

IT IS
NOT RIGHT!

>> IT IS KIDS
JUST LIKE THESE

THAT RIGHT NOW
THEY'RE BEGGING

BUT THEY ARE ALSO BAIT
FOR PREDATORS.

IF WE DON'T GET THEM
OFF THE STREET

THEY WILL BE THE NEXT
TRAFFICKED VICTIMS.

Announcer:
AND WHEN THESE CHILDREN BECOME ENSLAVED AND DON'T COMPLY,

HORRIBLE THINGS ARE DONE TO
THEM BY THE HUMAN TRAFFICKERS.

>> IT IS TRAGIC
WHAT IS HAPPENING
TO CHILDREN,

INNOCENT CHILDREN
AND IT IS NOT RIGHT.

OUR HEARTS
ARE BURDENED

BY ALL THE CHILDREN THAT ARE CRYING OUT FOR HELP TODAY,

THIS MOMENT,
THAT NEED INTERVENTION,
THAT NEED HELP,

THAT ARE WAITING FOR
SOMEONE TO HEAR THEIR CRIES

AND WE CAN ONLY DO IT
WITH YOUR HELP.

James: THAT'S SO HORRIBLE
TO IMAGINE THAT THOSE THINGS

HAPPEN TO LITTLE CHILDREN,
THAT THOSE PRECIOUS

LITTLE CHILDREN BEGGING
BUT ALSO THEY'RE PREYED UPON

BY THE PREDATORS AND
THEY'RE TAKEN AND USED.

IT'S HARD TO EVEN FATHOM
PEOPLE DOING THAT --

HARD TO IMAGINE THAT.
BUT IT'S ALSO HARD TO IMAGINE,

BETTY, THAT WE COULD LOOK
AND KNOW THAT WE'VE GOT

PEOPLE IN PLACE AND
WE'VE GOT SYSTEMS THAT WORK

AND CAN BUILD A HAVEN OF HOPE
AND THAT WE WOULDN'T RESPOND

TO JUST DO SOMETHING.
IT LOOKS LIKE EVERYBODY

WOULD WANT TO.
Betty: I KNOW AS A MOTHER,

MY FIRST IMPRESSION WOULD BE,
OH, I WANT TO GO GRAB

ALL THOSE PRECIOUS CHILDREN
AND HOLD THEM IN MY ARMS

AND LET THEM KNOW
THERE IS A WAY OUT.

WE CAN'T DO THAT PHYSICALLY,
WE CAN'T GATHER THEM ALL UP

BUT THERE IS A WAY OUT AND
THAT'S THROUGH YOUR PRAYERS,

FIRST OF ALL,

BUT THROUGH YOUR GIVING.
WE CAN PROVIDE A SAFE HAVEN

FOR THESE PRECIOUS CHILDREN
THAT I FEEL LIKE WHEN I LOOK

INTO THEIR EYES,
THEY'RE OPENING THEIR EYES

EVERY DAY WONDERING,
IS THERE ANY HOPE OUT THERE?

IS SOMEONE GOING TO SAVE ME?
WELL, WE CAN BE THAT WAY

FOR THEM.
I HOPE YOU WILL JOIN US.

James: WE'VE GOT THE PEOPLE
THAT WERE CALLED THERE

LIKE CAROL HART YOU SAW
THAT HAD THOSE LITTLE CHILDREN

AROUND THEM.
WE HELPED THEM BUILD

THE LARGEST HOME FOR PEOPLE
IN THAT AREA IN THAILAND,

WHICH MAKE IS THE SEX CAPITAL
OF THE WORLD, AND TO SEE

WHAT'S HAPPENED THERE,
TO TAKE THOSE CHILDREN

WHO HAVE BEEN TRAFFICKED
AND THEN SEE THEM SINGING

AND HAPPY IN A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
WE'RE DOING THE SAME THING,

BECAUSE A MODEL, BECAUSE
GISELLE SAW SOMETHING

THAT SHE SAID, "HAPPENED TO ME
AND I CAN HELP THESE PEOPLE"

AND FOUND THE SITUATION
IN NEPAL, WHICH IS NOT

FAR FROM EVEREST,
THIS GREAT, INCREDIBLE,

BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAIN, AND YET
THIS TERRIBLE POVERTY AND

THEN THESE PRECIOUS CHILDREN
TAKEN INTO THE SEX TRAFFIC,

MOST OF THEM INTO INDIA
AND OTHER AREAS.

BUT WE CAN GET THEM OUT.
SHE IS THE ONE THAT WENT IN

AND SAID, "ONCE WE GET THEM OUT
WE'RE GOING TO GIVE THEM

A TRADE.
WE'RE GOING TO TEACH THEM

HOW TO DO SOMETHING WHERE
THEY CAN SELL SOMETHING

TO MAKE A LIVING."
WE'RE GIVING THESE BEAUTIFUL

NECKLACES THAT THEY MADE.
WE'LL SEND ONE TO

EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO SAY,
"I'LL RESCUE ONE OF THOSE

OUT OF THAT TRAFFICKING.
I'LL GET ONE OF THEM OUT

OF THAT PRISON."
WHEN YOU DO IT, IT TAKES $128,

IT'S GOING TO BE DOUBLED,
IT'S GOING TO BE MATCHED

SO YOU'LL BE RESCUING TWO.
AND THEN THINK ABOUT THIS,

SOME PEOPLE SAY, "I COULDN'T
GIVE $120.

THAT'S A STRETCH FOR ME."
$64 RIGHT NOW WILL BE DOUBLED

AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE ENOUGH
TO RESCUE ONE.

SO WE'RE ASKING YOU RIGHT NOW
TO GO TO THE TELEPHONE,

DIAL THE NUMBER,
TAKE YOUR BANKCARD.

WE REALLY NEED TO HEAR FROM
EVERY ONE OF YOU THAT HAVE ANY

ABILITY TO HELP AT ANY LEVEL,
KNOWING IT WILL BE DOUBLED.

IF YOU CAN HELP US BUILD
THAT LIFE CENTER IN NEPAL,

MAKE A GIFT OF $1,000 OR MORE.
PLEASE DO THAT.

WE'RE SENDING "THE LION
AND THE LAMB" BRONZE

THAT YOU MAKE.
IF YOU MAKE A GIFT OF ANY SIZE

AND WE'RE ALSO SENDING
THE CHRISTIAN VOTE PIN

JUST TO REMIND PEOPLE
THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT

WE NEED TO CARE ABOUT
NOT ONLY ELECTIONS, VOTE,

BUT ALSO BE CONCERNED ABOUT
PRAYING ABOUT THE DIRECTION

OF OUR COUNTRY BECAUSE WE NEED
TO MAKE SOME CORRECTION.

WE'LL SEND THIS TO SAY
THANK YOU BUT I'M ASKING YOU

TO GO ONLINE LIFETODAY.ORG,
DIAL THE NUMBER,

TAKE YOUR BANKCARD,
USE IT LIKE A CHECK.

BUT PLEASE, MAKE THE BEST GIFT
YOU CAN AND KNOW THAT

IT WILL BE DOUBLED BECAUSE
OF THE LOVE AND COMPASSION

OF OTHERS WHO SAID WE WANT
TO HELP YOU HAVE

AN EVEN GREATER EFFECT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH

FOR MAKING THAT CALL.
