  ALL RIGHT, WELCOME EVERYBODY. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
• 0:12
  HERE, AND I KNOW SOME MORE PEOPLE ARE COMING IN, BUT I WANT
• 0:14
  TO GREET THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING AROUND REALLY THE
• 0:18
  WORLD, BUT THE UNITED STATES. YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THAT IT
• 0:21
  IS AT THIS TIME IN OUR COUNTRY, SO THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
• 0:24
  IT'S GREAT TO HAVE MANY OF OUR PASTORS AND FRIENDS, BUT REALLY
• 0:28
  SOME OF THOSE THAT ARE RUNNING FOR OFFICE, BUT YOU THE PEOPLE
• 0:33
  THAT ARE GONNA MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COUNTRY. SO I'D LIKE FOR
• 0:36
  US TO TAKE A FEW MOMENTS, LET'S JUST GO AHEAD AND STAND. WE'RE
• 0:38
  GONNA PRAY AND WE'RE ALSO GOING TO SAY THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE,
• 0:42
  BUT WE'RE GONNA BEGIN WITH PRAYER TO THE LORD. SO HEAVENLY
• 0:45
  FATHER, WE COME TO YOU TONIGHT. WE THANK YOU FOR THIS TIME IN
• 0:48
  OUR COUNTRY. WE REMIND YOU THAT WE REDEDICATED THIS COUNTRY BACK
• 0:54
  INTO THE HONOR OF YOU, OUR GOD. YOU SAID, "BLESSED IS THE NATION
• 0:59
  WHO THE LORD IS THEIR GOD." AND SO, LORD, WE BELIEVE THAT. AND
• 1:02
  WE BELIEVE THAT THE GOD FACTOR IS IN MOTION. BUT NOW YOU'RE
• 1:05
  LOOKING TO US, THE PEOPLE, TO HELP ACCELERATE YOUR PLAN, NOT
• 1:09
  ONLY FOR THIS TIME, BUT FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. AND SO,
• 1:13
  LORD, WE'RE ASKING YOU TO COME AND SHED YOUR GRACE UPON THIS
• 1:17
  GREAT COUNTRY. AND AS WE STAND AND CONTINUE TO FIGHT, BLESS IT
• 1:21
  THAT, LORD, WE WILL SEE VICTORY ON EVERY SIDE. AND EVERYBODY
• 1:25
  SAID, AMEN. LET'S GO AHEAD AND LOOK TO THE FLAG AND LET'S SAY
• 1:29
  THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TOGETHER. I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO
• 1:33
  THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR
• 1:38
  WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH
• 1:44
  LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. I CAN'T STOP LOOKING AT THAT GREAT
• 1:49
  FLAG. AMEN. WHY DON'T YOU GO AHEAD AND BE SEATED. I THANK
• 1:52
  GOD. ALSO, HOW MANY VETERANS ARE IN HERE? WOW. WOW. THANK YOU FOR
• 1:59
  YOUR SERVICE. ALSO ONLINE, IF YOU'RE A VETERAN, LET US KNOW SO
• 2:02
  THAT WE CAN HONOR YOU AS WELL. IN FACT, TALKING ABOUT VETERANS,
• 2:05
  BRENDA AND I DECIDED WE'RE GONNA PROBABLY GO AROUND AND LOOK AT
• 2:07
  DIFFERENT— WE WENT TO THIS SARPY COUNTY COMMISSION. AND JUST KIND
• 2:13
  OF SEEING TODAY WAS THE FIRST DAY OF EARLY VOTING. AND I COULD
• 2:16
  NOT BELIEVE ALL OF THE AMERICAN FLAGS THAT PEOPLE WERE WEARING.
• 2:24
  YOU'LL BE ENCOURAGED, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, PATRIOTIC
• 2:27
  GEAR. I'VE NEVER SEEN IT LIKE THAT. I EVEN COMMENTED TO
• 2:31
  SOMEONE THAT HAD WORKED THERE. I SAID, HAVE YOU EVER SEEN IT LIKE
• 2:34
  THIS? HE SAID, FIRST OF ALL, RECORD NUMBERS TODAY. SECOND OF
• 2:37
  ALL, NO, WE HAVE NOT SEEN THAT. WELL, YOU KNOW, AND YOU AND I
• 2:39
  BOTH KNOW THAT THOSE WHO LOVE THEIR COUNTRY AND LOVE THE FLAG
• 2:43
  AND SUCH, THEY USUALLY DON'T WEAR THAT KIND OF STUFF. THEY
• 2:46
  WOULD RATHER HAVE A PRIDE FLAG OR SOMETHING ELSE, OR A
• 2:49
  PALESTINIAN FLAG OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. SO I THINK THAT'S A
• 2:52
  GOOD SIGN TO START IT OFF WITH. WELL, I WANNA TALK TO YOU FOR
• 2:55
  JUST A FEW MOMENTS. THIS IS NOT MY TIME HERE FULLY, BUT WE DO
• 2:59
  HAVE A LOT OF GREAT GUESTS THAT ARE GONNA SHARE, ESPECIALLY RICK
• 3:03
  GREEN. SO AREN'T YOU GLAD THAT HE'S IN THE HOUSE? HE'LL BE
• 3:06
  COMING IN JUST A MOMENT. I WANT TO SHARE SOMETHING WITH YOU, AND
• 3:12
  THAT'S THIS, THAT WE'RE IN A STRATEGIC TIME IN OUR NATION. I
• 3:14
  DON'T THINK IT'S ANY SECRET TO ALL OF YOU THAT NOT ONLY ARE WE
• 3:17
  IN A CULTURAL WAR, BUT WE'VE BEEN IN A REALLY A POLITICAL
• 3:20
  BATTLE, WE'VE BEEN IN SPIRITUAL BATTLE, BUT WE'VE BEEN IN A
• 3:23
  BATTLE WITH THE CHURCH. AND IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT WAY WITH AN
• 3:27
  APATHY THAT HAS SET IN AMONG THE MINDSETS OF CHRISTIANS TODAY
• 3:33
  THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE INVOLVED IN POLITICS. AND SO MY
• 3:36
  QUESTION ALWAYS IS, WELL THEN, WHO ARE YOU LEAVING IT TO, TO BE
• 3:40
  THE MORAL STANDARD, TO BE THE VOICE? AND OUR GREAT COUNTRY WAS
• 3:44
  FOUNDED OFF OF THE BLACK ROBE REGIMENT OF PASTORS THAT WERE
• 3:49
  ACTUALLY THE FIRST CONCEALED CARRIERS. WHILE THEY WOULD
• 3:51
  PREACH AND ENCOURAGE THEIR CONGREGATION TO JOIN THE
• 3:54
  REVOLUTION AT HAND, THEY WERE CONCEALING THEIR WEAPONS
• 3:57
  UNDERNEATH THEIR ROBES. BUT IT CAME FROM THE CHURCH HOUSE. THEY
• 4:01
  WERE THE ONES THAT WERE TELLING THEIR PEOPLE, TO GO AHEAD AND
• 4:04
  FIND SHOVELS, WHATEVER YOU CAN, AND FIGHT FOR YOUR FREEDOM,
• 4:09
  FIGHT FOR GOD, AND FIGHT FOR YOUR COUNTRY. AND SO IT'S SUCH A
• 4:14
  GREAT THING TO SEE MANY OF THE PASTORS HERE AND YOU AS
• 4:17
  CHRISTIANS, OR MAYBE YOU'RE HERE JUST BECAUSE YOU LOVE THE
• 4:21
  COUNTRY. AND IN THIS TIME OF WAR, I WANNA BRING YOU TO
• 4:24
  SOMETHING. WHEN I SAY WAR, I'M TALKING ABOUT NOT AN IRANIAN
• 4:28
  WAR, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE WAR ON REALLY GIVING OUR CHILDREN
• 4:33
  AND THE NEXT GENERATION THE AMERICA THAT MANY OF US GREW UP
• 4:37
  TO LOVE AND TO KNOW AND TO APPRECIATE, THAT WE HAD JUSTICE,
• 4:42
  WE HAD TRUTH, WE HAD LIBERTY, WE HAD TRUE FREEDOM. WELL, THAT'S
• 4:46
  WHAT I'M STANDING AND FIGHTING FOR, IS I WANNA HAND THAT NOT
• 4:48
  ONLY TO THE PRESENT GENERATION, BUT I WANNA HAND IT TO THE
• 4:52
  FUTURE GENERATION OF OUR CHILDREN. I WANNA REALLY BE ABLE
• 4:54
  TO TELL 'EM ABOUT AMERICA THE GREAT, ONE NATION UNDER GOD. AND
• 4:59
  SO THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. BUT I WANNA DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO A
• 5:03
  SCRIPTURE, JUDGES 5, VERY QUICKLY. AND I WANT YOU TO LOOK
• 5:07
  AT THIS, THE CONDITIONS OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING IN JUDGES 5 THAT
• 5:10
  SOUNDS A LOT LIKE OUR DAY-TO-DAY. IT SAYS, IN THE DAYS
• 5:14
  OF SHAMGAR, THE HIGHWAYS WERE UNOCCUPIED. IN OTHER WORDS, THAT
• 5:17
  PEOPLE GOT OFF THE MAIN ROAD. THIS IS WHY WE DID THIS EVENT,
• 5:21
  FOR PASTORS TO COME TOGETHER, FOR YOU, THE PEOPLE, TO COME
• 5:23
  TOGETHER SO THAT WE CAN HELP NAVIGATE THIS COUNTRY THROUGH
• 5:27
  THE CHALLENGES THAT IT HAS TO GET BACK ON THE MAIN ROADS OF
• 5:30
  WHAT HAS MADE AMERICA GREAT AND WHAT BRINGS THE BLESSING OF GOD.
• 5:34
  THE NEXT THING THAT WE SEE IS IN VERSE 8. IT SAYS THEY CHOSE NEW
• 5:37
  GODS. LIKE NEVER BEFORE, WE ARE NOW FACING ISLAM. WE'RE FACING
• 5:43
  AN ISLAMIC MOVEMENT. THEY'RE REGISTERING 1,000 PEOPLE A WEEK
• 5:47
  TO VOTE. 80 TO 90% OF THE MUSLIMS VOTE, 22% OF CHRISTIANS
• 5:55
  VOTE. YOU TELL ME ON THAT RATE, WHERE IS OUR COUNTRY HEADING IF
• 6:00
  WE CONTINUE TO HAND IT TO PEOPLE LIKE THAT? THEY CHOSE NEW GODS,
• 6:03
  THEN WAS THERE WAR IN THE GATES? I'VE NEVER SEEN SO MUCH CULTURAL
• 6:07
  BICKERING AND FIGHTING AND MISUNDERSTANDING AND CONFUSION.
• 6:10
  AND THEN LASTLY, WAS THERE A SHIELD OR SPEAR SEEN IN 40,000?
• 6:15
  IN OTHER WORDS, THEY LOST THEIR FIGHT, BUT WHAT I LOVE ABOUT IT
• 6:17
  IS, VERSE 7, DEBORAH AROSE AS A LEADER, AND THAT'S WHAT IT'S
• 6:20
  GONNA TAKE. IT'S WHY WE'RE DOING THIS. IT'S WHY YOU PASTORS BEING
• 6:24
  HERE, ENGAGING YOUR CONGREGATION, ENCOURAGING PEOPLE
• 6:27
  GET UP. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A POLITICIAN. SHE WAS
• 6:31
  A MOTHER, BUT SHE AROSE AND SHE GOT INVOLVED IN POLITICS. LOOK
• 6:34
  AT VERSE 9. SHE WENT AND SAID, "MY HEART IS FOR THE GOVERNORS."
• 6:37
  COME ON, IS YOUR HEART TOWARDS THE POLITICIANS THAT ARE OUT
• 6:40
  THERE TODAY? IS YOUR HEART OUT THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY BE
• 6:44
  REMINDED, THEY WORK FOR US. AND SO THE LAST ONE I WANNA SHOW YOU
• 6:48
  IN JUDGES 5 IS THIS, AND IT SAYS THIS, THAT THEY WENT TO THE
• 6:52
  TRIBE OF REUBEN AND THEY SAID IN VERSE 15, AND REUBEN REPRESENTS
• 6:59
  THE CHURCH, AND THEY SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, WE HAVE GREAT
• 7:01
  THOUGHTS OF HEART. AND THAT'S REALLY WHERE A LOT OF CHURCHES
• 7:03
  ARE, A LOT OF CHRISTIANS ARE, IS, YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANNA GET
• 7:07
  INVOLVED. WELL, THAT'S HOW YOU RUIN YOUR COUNTRY AND IT'S HOW
• 7:10
  YOU GET YOUR RELIGIOUS LIBERTIES TAKEN. AND WE HAVE GOT TO CHANGE
• 7:14
  THAT. SO GUESS WHAT SHE DID? SHE WENT OUT AND BEGAN TO RECRUIT,
• 7:18
  GETTING OTHER PEOPLE TO VOTE, GETTING OTHER PEOPLE TO JOIN
• 7:22
  WHAT WE ARE ALL WANTING TO JOIN TOGETHER, AND THAT'S FOR A
• 7:25
  BETTER AMERICA, A BETTER FUTURE. LASTLY, I WANNA SAY THIS. I WANT
• 7:30
  THEM TO PUT UP THIS GRAPHIC. I PREACHED THIS ON SUNDAY. I
• 7:33
  ALWAYS KNOW WHEN I DO THIS, I FEEL THE VULNERABILITY AT THE
• 7:37
  END BECAUSE YOU'RE ALWAYS GONNA GET SOMEBODY WHO'S NOT GONNA I
• 7:40
  LIKE WHAT YOU SAY, BUT I'M NOT HERE FOR POPULARITY. I'M HERE
• 7:42
  FOR TRUTH. AND I'M HERE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THOSE THAT CAN'T
• 7:46
  SPEAK. THIS GENERATION, THE NEXT GENERATION. BUT I MADE IT VERY
• 7:50
  CLEAR, THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO THE VOTING BOOTH. THIS IS
• 7:53
  WHAT YOU'RE FACING. THIS IS WHAT THE DEMOCRATIC PROGRESSIVE
• 7:56
  MOVEMENT, WHAT THEY'RE FOR. THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY FOR ABORTION.
• 7:59
  THEY'RE AGAINST RIGHTS TO BEAR ARMS. THEY WANNA TAKE YOUR GUNS
• 8:02
  AWAY. THEY'RE AGAINST LEGAL IMMIGRATION. THEY WANT ANYBODY
• 8:06
  TO COME OVER THE BORDER, ESPECIALLY CRIMINALS. AND THEY
• 8:10
  DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU THE CITIZENS' RIGHTS. AND IT GOES ON
• 8:13
  AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON. THEY'RE AGAINST A STRONG DEFENSE
• 8:16
  AND MILITARY. YOU CAN SEE THAT. THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING,
• 8:20
  THIS IS THE ONE THAT I THINK IS THE MOST ALARMING BECAUSE AGAIN,
• 8:23
  BLESSED IS THE NATION OF THE LORD IS THEIR GOD. THE LAST ONE,
• 8:27
  ACKNOWLEDGING THE CHRISTIAN HERITAGE OF OUR NATION. I'VE
• 8:29
  NEVER SEEN IN ALL MY LIFE WHERE EVERYBODY ELSE GETS THE
• 8:33
  OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS THEIR FAITH BUT CHRISTIANS. AND IF YOU
• 8:36
  DO, YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN NATIONALIST, YOU'RE A BIGOT.
• 8:38
  THEY CALL YOU ALL KINDS OF NAMES. SO THESE ARE THE REAL
• 8:41
  ISSUES. AND HERE'S WHAT I WANT TO LEAVE YOU WITH. IN 1 TIMOTHY
• 8:45
  CHAPTER 4, KEEP IT UP PLEASE, GRAPHICS. I WANT YOU TO HEAR ME
• 8:48
  VERY CLEARLY. I WANT TO QUOTE A SCRIPTURE. JESUS SAID IN THE
• 8:50
  LAST DAYS, 1 TIMOTHY 4, THAT THERE WOULD BE DOCTRINES OF
• 8:54
  DEVILS AND SEDUCING SPIRITS THAT WOULD SEDUCE A GENERATION AND A
• 9:00
  PEOPLE. AND THEN IT SAYS IN VERSE 2 THAT IT WOULD CAUSE
• 9:03
  PEOPLE'S MINDS TO BE SEARED. AND I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN IN
• 9:07
  ALL OF MY LIFE, YOU TALK TO CHRISTIANS TODAY AND THEY WILL
• 9:11
  DEFEND THE RIGHT TO KILL A BABY IN THE WOMB AND ARGUE WHETHER
• 9:14
  IT'S A CHILD OR NOT. THEY WILL FIGHT FOR THE DRAG QUEEN TO KEEP
• 9:19
  READING TO THE KIDS IN SCHOOL AND PEDOPHILIA AND PORNOGRAPHY
• 9:23
  TO BE CHECKED OUT BY A 7-YEAR-OLD. THEY WILL FIGHT,
• 9:26
  CHRISTIANS AND PASTORS WILL SAY NOTHING AND BE QUIET WHILE
• 9:30
  CHILDREN ARE BEING CONVINCED BY VERY EVIL PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT
• 9:34
  EDUCATING OUR CHILDREN BUT INDOCTRINATING THEM AND TELLING
• 9:38
  A 6, 7, 8, 9-YEAR-OLD THAT THEY CAN BE SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN
• 9:42
  THEIR GOD-GIVEN GENDER, AND YOU THE PARENTS DON'T HAVE A RIGHT.
• 9:46
  AND THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THERE IS A GENERATION THAT THEIR
• 9:49
  CONSCIENCE WILL BE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON BECAUSE OF THE DEMONIC.
• 9:53
  AND I AM IMPLORING US AS THE AMERICAN CHURCH, I'M IMPLORING
• 9:58
  YOU THAT ARE PASTORS TO ENGAGE LIKE NEVER BEFORE AND ENCOURAGE
• 10:03
  YOUR PEOPLE. THIS ISN'T ABOUT WIN OR LOSE BY WAY OF YOUR
• 10:08
  FAVORITE CANDIDATE. YES, THAT'S IMPORTANT, BUT WHAT WE CANNOT
• 10:11
  LOSE IS A NATION THAT JUST GOT DEDICATED TO GOD. WE CANNOT LOSE
• 10:16
  THE MOMENTUM OF HOW GOD WANTS TO BLESS THIS NATION AND IS IN
• 10:20
  PROCESS IF WE TURN THE OTHER WAY AND PUT PEOPLE IN OFFICE THAT
• 10:26
  BELIEVE, VOTE, AND STAND FOR IT. SO CHURCH, WE'VE GOTTA WAKE UP.
• 10:32
  WE HAVE TO DO OUR PART, AND THAT'S WHAT OUR MESSAGE IS
• 10:35
  TONIGHT. WE GOTTA GET OUT AND VOTE. WE CAN'T HAVE OUR
• 10:38
  CONSCIENCE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON. AND HERE'S THE QUESTION I
• 10:41
  WANT TO LEAVE YOU. ARE YOU READY? IT'S WHAT I SAID TO OUR
• 10:43
  CHURCH. JESUS SAID IN LUKE 21 THAT YOU GOTTA GET YOUR HEAD
• 10:48
  STRAIGHT, BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR HEAD STRAIGHT, HE SAID
• 10:52
  THAT THERE'LL BE, IN THE LAST DAYS, THERE'LL BE OCEANS AND
• 10:55
  WATERS ROARING GREATLY, HE SAID THAT THE NATIONS WOULD BE IN
• 10:59
  PERPLEXITY BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE LOOKING AT THE THINGS THAT ARE
• 11:02
  COMING. MY QUESTION IS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT
• 11:06
  WHAT THE AGENDA OF THE BLUE RIGHT THERE IS TRYING TO DO TO
• 11:11
  YOUR CHILDREN, TO OUR COUNTRY? AS PASTORS AND AS LEADERS AND AS
• 11:15
  CHURCHES, CONGREGATIONS, WHAT ARE WE DOING? ARE WE STANDING BY
• 11:19
  QUIET AND ALLOWING IT TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OUR HEAD IS NOT SCREWED
• 11:23
  ON STRAIGHT? WE SHOULD NEVER ALLOW THIS LEVEL OF EVIL OR
• 11:27
  INJUSTICE TO GO ON. WE HAVE BEEN CALLED OF GOD AS CHRISTIANS AND
• 11:31
  PASTORS TO DO SOMETHING. IT IS NOT ONLY OUR MORAL OBLIGATION,
• 11:35
  IT IS OUR OBLIGATION AS CHRISTIANS, GOD-FEARING PEOPLE,
• 11:40
  TO STAND FOR THE TRUTH, TELL THE TRUTH, AND FIGHT FOR IT. AMEN?
• 11:46
  NOW EXODUS 8:16, IT SAYS THIS, AND PASTOR BRENDA, I'M GOING TO
• 11:52
  HAVE YOU COME. PHARAOH WAS GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET RID OF THE
• 11:58
  FROGS IN EXODUS 8. WE'VE GOT A LOT OF FROGS, REPUBLICAN,
• 12:01
  DEMOCRAT. FROGS ARE UNCLEAN SPIRITS. FROGS IN REVELATION
• 12:06
  SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE DRAGON SATAN. WE'VE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE
• 12:10
  THAT ARE SPEAKING VERY SATANIC EVIL AGENDAS THAT PEOPLE ARE
• 12:14
  BELIEVING. IT'S SEARING THEIR MIND. AND HE HAD A CHOICE. WHAT
• 12:18
  ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THESE FROGS, PHARAOH? HE SAID, LET
• 12:22
  THEM STAY HERE UNTIL TOMORROW. I'M CONVINCED IF WE DON'T SHOW
• 12:26
  UP AT THE VOTING BOOTH, WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO HAVE THESE
• 12:29
  FROGS, THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE ABOUT THE AGENDA OF H***. I SAY
• 12:35
  NO MORE. NO MORE ELECTIONS HAVING PEOPLE WHO AREN'T GOING
• 12:38
  TO WORK FOR US AND BE ABOUT WHAT IS IMPORTANT. TO GOD AND TO OUR
• 12:45
  CHILDREN. AND SO I JUST WANNA ENCOURAGE YOU. I WANNA SAY THIS,
• 12:48
  PASTOR BRENDA, COME, 'CAUSE I'LL KEEP GOING, BUT I DO HAVE ONE
• 12:50
  LAST VERSE I DO WANNA SAY. I'VE HAD PASTORS SAY, YEAH, BUT I'M
• 12:54
  AFRAID TO RISK IT ALL. OUR CHURCH HAS EXPLODED IN GROWTH
• 12:58
  OVER THE YEARS. THE BOLDER I GOT, THE MORE IT GREW. BUT
• 13:02
  HERE'S A PRINCIPLE THAT I WANNA SHARE WITH EVERY PASTOR AND
• 13:04
  EVERYONE THAT'S WATCHING ONLINE. IT'S WHY I LOVE PRESIDENT TRUMP.
• 13:08
  I DON'T WORSHIP HIM. I DON'T HATE HIM. BUT I THANK GOD FOR
• 13:12
  SOMETHING, AND IT'S THIS STRONG LEADERSHIP. JUDGES 5 SAYS THIS,
• 13:15
  VERSE 2. WHEN ISRAEL'S LEADERS, OR WHEN AMERICA'S LEADERS,
• 13:22
  AMERICA'S PASTORS, AMERICAN STRONG CHRISTIANS ROSE UP, WHEN
• 13:28
  THEY ROSE UP BOLDLY, IT SAYS THE PEOPLE WILLINGLY FOLLOWED. DON'T
• 13:31
  EVER THINK THAT YOUR BOLDNESS THAT YOUR EFFORT IS IN VAIN, OR
• 13:35
  IF YOU SPEAK UP THAT IT'S NOT FOR ANY GOOD. NO, THE MORE
• 13:41
  BOLDER YOU ARE ABOUT THE RIGHT THINGS, YOU'LL BE SURPRISED AT
• 13:45
  HOW PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO FOLLOW IT. THEY JUST NEED A LEADER.
• 13:48
  THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, PASTOR. WELL,
• 13:53
  JUST A COUPLE THINGS I JUST WANTED TO SHARE VERY QUICKLY,
• 13:56
  AND THEN I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO TERRI BLACKBURN. SHE'S
• 13:59
  OUR POLITICAL LEAH'S ON HERE AT LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH. BY THE
• 14:03
  WAY, PASTORS, IF YOU CAN HAVE A POLITICAL PERSON THAT'LL DO
• 14:07
  FOOTWORK FOR YOU. AND I'M JUST GOING TO SAY A COUPLE OF GREAT
• 14:09
  THINGS ABOUT HER BECAUSE AFTER THIS SEGMENT, I WON'T HAVE THE
• 14:12
  MIC AGAIN. BUT I DO WANT TO SAY TERRI HAS SPENT HUNDREDS OF
• 14:17
  HOURS PUTTING TOGETHER VOTER GUIDES, WHICH WE HAVE AVAILABLE
• 14:21
  TONIGHT. BOB WILL TALK ABOUT THAT. OF EVERY SINGLE
• 14:25
  INITIATIVE, EVERY JUDGE. HOW MANY OF YOU EVER GOTTEN TO THE
• 14:28
  VOTING BOOTH AND YOU DIDN'T KNOW IF THE JUDGE WAS AN IDIOT OR HE
• 14:32
  WAS WORTH KEEPING? SHE HAS PUT ALL THAT, DONE ALL THAT FOOTWORK
• 14:36
  FOR BOTH DOUGLAS AND SARPY COUNTY. WE HAVE ALL OF THOSE IN
• 14:39
  HERE. THERE'S A BOATLOAD OF INFORMATION OUT THERE, AND I'LL
• 14:43
  LET, OF COURSE, HER AND BOB TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT PART OF OUR GOAL
• 14:47
  TONIGHT IS TO GET CHURCHES LITERALLY ENGAGED, PASTORS
• 14:52
  ENGAGED, AND BEING A PART OF, YOU KNOW, AND I KNOW RICK WILL
• 14:56
  TALK A LITTLE BIT TONIGHT ABOUT HOW JUST A SMALL HANDFUL OF
• 15:01
  BELIEVERS THAT DECIDE TO TAKE THEIR PLACE CAN MAKE A SHIFT IN
• 15:06
  THE ELECTION. AND I BELIEVE WE ARE THE SEED OF THAT TONIGHT
• 15:11
  HERE IN NEBRASKA. AND BY THE WAY, WE WILL HAVE THOUSANDS OF
• 15:15
  PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE WORLD. YOU KNOW, WE FELT LIKE TO USE
• 15:18
  OUR STREAMING AUDIENCE OF PEOPLE THAT ARE WATCHING IN OTHER
• 15:21
  STATES, THIS IS ALSO FOR YOU. TERRI WILL ALSO BE TALKING
• 15:25
  TONIGHT ABOUT HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED IN THE POLITICAL
• 15:29
  SPHERE, THE WHOLE IDEOLOGY THAT THE CHURCH SHOULD NOT BE
• 15:33
  INVOLVED IN POLITICS IS JUST A MISNOMER. IT'S NOT POLITICS
• 15:38
  WE'RE INVOLVED IN. WHAT WE'RE INVOLVED IN IS BEING THE LIGHT,
• 15:42
  THE CITY SET ON A HILL THAT JESUS SAID WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE.
• 15:46
  A REGION THAT SAT IN DARKNESS, COME ON, SOMEBODY, SAW A GREAT
• 15:50
  LIGHT. AND WE ARE THAT LIGHT. IF WE'RE NOT THAT LIGHT, THEN
• 15:54
  NOBODY'S GOING TO BE THAT. SO, NO, WE'RE BEING INVOLVED IN THE
• 15:58
  VERY PEOPLE, THE CANDIDATES, THE INITIATIVES, THE LEGISLATION
• 16:03
  THAT GOES ON THAT CONTROLS ULTIMATELY OUR DAILY LIFE. PAUL
• 16:08
  PRAYED IT THIS WAY IN THESSALONIANS. HE SAID THESE
• 16:11
  WORDS. HE SAID, "PRAY FOR US THAT THE GOSPEL WOULD HAVE FREE
• 16:15
  COURSE." THAT'S WHAT WE'RE AFTER. WE NEED OUR PULPITS TO
• 16:19
  REMAIN FREE. DON'T TELL ME IN MY PULPIT THAT I CAN'T SAY THAT
• 16:24
  MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN. DON'T TELL ME IN MY
• 16:28
  PULPIT THAT WE CAN'T STAND UP AND HAVE GOD'S DEFINITION OF
• 16:32
  MALE AND FEMALE. SO, THAT ASIDE, I WANNA READ VERY QUICKLY TO YOU
• 16:38
  AN ARTICLE, IT'S VERY SHORT, THAT SOMEBODY SENT ME, WRITTEN
• 16:44
  BY DAVE RAMSEY. HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE HEARD OF DAVE RAMSEY? AND
• 16:48
  MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN PRIVILEGED TO RECEIVE FROM HIS GREAT
• 16:52
  CONTENT. BUT HERE'S WHAT HE'S HAD TO SAY ABOUT WHAT WE'RE UP
• 16:57
  AGAINST, AND THIS IS PART OF THE REASON WE ARE HOLDING THIS
• 17:00
  EVENT. WE ARE UP AGAINST THINGS. CAN I BE HONEST WITH YOU? PASTOR
• 17:04
  HANK AND I STARTED THIS CHURCH IN 1997 WITH A SMALL HANDFUL OF
• 17:09
  PEOPLE, AND I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT IN THOSE DAYS, WE'RE
• 17:13
  JUST TRYING TO PREACH THE BIBLE. WE WANT TO TEACH PEOPLE HOW TO
• 17:17
  PRAY. WE WANT TO TEACH THEM HOW TO HAVE FAITH. WE WANT TO TEACH
• 17:21
  THEM HOW TO KNOW JESUS. WE WANT TO BRING PEOPLE IN SO THEY CAN
• 17:24
  BE SAVED AND DELIVERED. AND WE NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT BACK IN
• 17:29
  1997 THAT THERE WOULD BE SO-CALLED PASTORS MARRYING TWO
• 17:37
  MEN OR TWO WOMEN AND ENDORSING THOSE UNIONS. WE WOULD HAVE
• 17:41
  NEVER THOUGHT THAT IN OUR LIFETIME. SO, WE ARE UP AGAINST
• 17:44
  A LOT AND WE ARE AT CRITICAL MASS NOW. AND THE CHURCH HAS TO
• 17:48
  BE, COME ON, WE ARE THE FORCE THAT'S GONNA PUSH BACK THE GATES
• 17:52
  OF H***. SO, HERE'S WHAT DAVE HAD TO SAY ABOUT WHAT WE'RE UP
• 17:57
  AGAINST, AND THIS REALLY GAVE ME MOTIVATION AS TO TONIGHT. HE
• 18:03
  SAID, "THIS MORNING I REALIZED THAT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT TO
• 18:07
  CHANGE. NO MATTER HOW I VOTE OR WHAT I SAY, LIVES JUST ARE NOT
• 18:12
  GOING TO BE THE SAME. I AM TOTALLY CONFUSED BY THE
• 18:17
  HOSTILITY OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS." I LOOK AT PEOPLE I'VE
• 18:21
  KNOWN ALL MY LIFE THAT ARE SO HATE-FILLED, AND THEY SUDDENLY
• 18:25
  NOW AGREE WITH OPINIONS THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER EXPRESSED AS
• 18:28
  THEIR OWN. I THINK IT'S LIKE WE'VE ENTERED THE TWILIGHT ZONE.
• 18:33
  YOU SIMPLY CANNOT JUSTIFY THIS INSANITY. WE'VE BECOME A NATION
• 18:38
  THAT HAS LOST ITS COLLECTIVE SENSE OF DIRECTION. WE SEE OTHER
• 18:42
  COUNTRIES GOING SOCIALIST AND COLLAPSING, BUT SOMEHOW IT SEEMS
• 18:47
  LIKE A GREAT PLAN FOR US. SOMEHOW IT'S UN-AMERICAN FOR THE
• 18:51
  CENSUS TO COUNT HOW MANY ACTUAL AMERICANS ARE IN AMERICA. PEOPLE
• 18:56
  WHO SAY THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS GENDER ARE NOW DEMANDING A
• 18:59
  FEMALE PRESIDENT. LET THAT SINK IN. UNIVERSITIES THAT ADVOCATE
• 19:07
  EQUALITY DISCRIMINATE AGAINST ASIAN AMERICANS IN FAVOR OF
• 19:12
  AFRICAN AMERICANS. BY THE WAY, THE LAST TIME I REMEMBER, WE
• 19:15
  HAVE ONE NATIONAL ANTHEM, ONE. AND I CAN SAY THAT BOLDLY. WE
• 19:23
  HAVE A VERY MULTIRACIAL CHURCH HERE AT LORD OF HOSTS. SOME
• 19:29
  PEOPLE ARE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THINGS THAT HAPPENED BEFORE THEY
• 19:32
  WERE BORN, WHILE OTHERS ARE NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR
• 19:36
  ACTIONS AT THE PRESENT TIME. CRIMINALS ARE CAUGHT AND
• 19:40
  RELEASED, TO HURT MORE PEOPLE, BUT STOPPING THEM IS BAD BECAUSE
• 19:45
  IT'S A VIOLATION OF THEIR RIGHTS. PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER
• 19:49
  OWNED SLAVES SHOULD NOW PAY SLAVERY REPARATIONS TO PEOPLE
• 19:54
  WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN A SLAVE. WHERE DOES THAT START AND
• 19:59
  FINISH? AFTER LEGISLATING GENDER, IF A DUDE PRETENDS TO BE
• 20:04
  A WOMAN, YOU'RE NOW REQUIRED TO PRETEND WITH HIM. YOU KNOW, I
• 20:08
  THOUGHT ABOUT THAT LONG AND HARD, AND I THOUGHT, NO,
• 20:11
  IDENTIFYING WITH IS NOTHING MORE THAN I AM PLAYING MAKE-BELIEVE,
• 20:16
  AND YOU HAVE TO AGREE WITH ME. IT WAS COOL FOR JOE BIDEN TO
• 20:23
  BLACKMAIL THE PRESIDENT OF UKRAINE, BUT IT'S NOW AN
• 20:27
  IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE IF DONALD TRUMP INQUIRES ABOUT THAT.
• 20:31
  PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN TO COLLEGE SHOULD NOW PAY THE DEBTS
• 20:35
  OF COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO TOOK OUT HUGE LOANS FOR THEIR DEGREES.
• 20:41
  IMMIGRANTS WITH TUBERCULOSIS AND POLIO ARE WELCOME HERE, BUT BOY,
• 20:45
  YOU BETTER BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT YOUR DOG IS VACCINATED. WOW.
• 20:54
  IRISH DOCTORS AND GERMAN ENGINEERS WHO WANT TO IMMIGRATE
• 20:57
  TO THE US MUST GO THROUGH RIGOROUS VETTING PROCESSES. I
• 21:02
  WISH FAUCI WOULD HAVE GOT THAT NOTE. VIGOROUS VETTING. BUT ANY
• 21:08
  ILLITERATE GANGBANGER WHO JUMPS THE SOUTHERN FENCE IS WELCOME.
• 21:13
  $5 BILLION FOR BORDER SECURITY WAS SAID TO BE TOO EXPENSIVE.
• 21:20
  BUT $1.5 TRILLION— WITH A T, BY THE WAY— FOR FREE HEALTHCARE IS
• 21:25
  NOT. IF YOU CHEAT TO GET INTO COLLEGE, YOU GO TO PRISON. BUT
• 21:30
  IF YOU CHEAT TO GET INTO THE COUNTRY, YOU GO TO COLLEGE FOR
• 21:33
  FREE. ISN'T THAT FUN? AND POINTING ALL OF THIS HYPOCRISY
• 21:40
  OUT SOMEHOW MAKES US RACIST. NO, I BELIEVE IT MAKES US RIGHTEOUS.
• 21:50
  NOTHING MAKES SENSE ANYMORE. NO VALUES, NO MORALS, NO CIVILITY.
• 21:54
  AND PEOPLE ARE DYING OF A CHINESE VIRUS, BUT IT'S RACIST
• 21:57
  TO EVEN REFER TO IT AS CHINESE, EVEN THOUGH IT BEGAN IN CHINA.
• 22:03
  WE ARE LIVING IN AN UPSIDE-DOWN WORLD WHERE RIGHT IS WRONG AND
• 22:06
  WRONG IS RIGHT, AND MORAL'S IMMORAL. YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE
• 22:09
  TALKS ABOUT THAT IN ISAIAH 5. IMMORAL, AND WHAT IS IMMORAL IS
• 22:13
  NOW CONSIDERED MORAL, WHERE GOOD IS EVIL, EVIL'S GOOD, AND
• 22:16
  KILLING MURDERERS IS WRONG, BUT KILLING INNOCENT BABIES IS NOW
• 22:21
  SOMEHOW RIGHT. WAKE UP, AMERICA. THE GREAT UNSINKABLE SHIP
• 22:27
  TITANIC HAS HIT AN ICEBERG AND TAKING ON WATER AND SINKING
• 22:31
  FAST. AND I'M GONNA TELL YOU TONIGHT, I BELIEVE EVERY ONE OF
• 22:34
  US IN THIS ROOM AND THOSE THAT ARE WATCHING FROM AROUND THE
• 22:36
  WORLD, WE ARE HERE BECAUSE WE ARE THE BUCKETS THAT ARE GONNA
• 22:40
  START PUSHING THAT WATER OUT OF THAT TITANIC. COME ON, ALL HOPE
• 22:44
  IS NOT LOST FOR AMERICA. WE STILL HAVE OF HOPE, BUT WE'RE
• 22:48
  HERE TO BE THE CHURCH. AMEN AND AMEN. ALL RIGHT, WELL, LET ME
• 22:53
  TURN IT OVER TO TERRI. WELCOME THE AMAZING TERRI BLACKBURN.
• 23:04
  THANK YOU, PASTOR BRENDA. I HAVE THE ABSOLUTE HONOR JUST TO
• 23:11
  ACKNOWLEDGE AND THANK AND WELCOME THE ELECTED OFFICIALS
• 23:15
  THAT WE HAVE ACTUALLY IN THE ROOM, OR CANDIDATES THAT ARE
• 23:16
  RUNNING FOR OFFICE THAT DECIDED TO JOIN US. SO FIRST, I WANT TO
• 23:24
  WELCOME BILL BOWES. HE IS RUNNING FOR THE NEBRASKA STATE
• 23:28
  LEGISLATURE DISTRICT 14. SO THAT'S PAPILLION AND LA VISTA.
• 23:32
  GO AHEAD AND STAND UP SO PEOPLE CAN SEE. YES, THANK YOU. NEXT, I
• 23:42
  HAVE THE HONOR OF WELCOMING A LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH MEMBER,
• 23:46
  LINDA VERMOOTEN. SHE IS RUNNING FOR THE DOUGLAS AND SARPY
• 23:50
  LEARNING COMMUNITY DISTRICT 5.
• 23:58
  THE NEXT PERSON I HAVE THE HONOR
• 24:00
  OF WELCOMING, ANOTHER LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH MEMBER, I LOVE
• 24:03
  THAT, IS DALE WILLIAM BRANSBURG. HE IS RUNNING FOR EDUCATIONAL
• 24:08
  SERVICE UNIT 3, DISTRICT 5.
• 24:16
  AND THE LAST PERSON I WANNA MENTION,
• 24:18
  HE WAS HERE EARLIER FOR OUR DINNER WITH THE PASTORS, AND HE
• 24:23
  WASN'T ABLE TO STAY, BUT I WANTED TO ACKNOWLEDGE HIM FOR
• 24:26
  TAKING TIME OUT OF HIS BUSY SCHEDULE TO BE HERE, AND THAT IS
• 24:29
  SENATOR BRAD VON GILLERN. HE IS A CURRENT NEBRASKA STATE
• 24:32
  LEGISLATOR IN DISTRICT 4. HE IS ACTUALLY RUNNING FOR REELECTION.
• 24:36
  HE WAS HERE EARLIER, AND I JUST WANNA THANK HIM SO MUCH FOR
• 24:39
  TAKING TIME. NOW HERE'S THE FUN PART. DID I FORGET ANYBODY? NO,
• 24:49
  I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT. AND WE HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS OF SOME TOO.
• 24:54
  WE HAVE A VIDEO OF SOME THAT WEREN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT THAT
• 24:57
  WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY— YEAH, YOU KNOW, WE'RE COMPETING
• 25:00
  WITH THE TRUMP RALLY HERE. BUT WE DID, WE HAD SOME THAT WANTED
• 25:04
  TO SEND A VIDEO, AND SO YOU'LL HEAR FROM THEM LATER TOO. YOU'LL
• 25:06
  ALSO HEAR FROM THE OTHER ONES THAT I MENTIONED THAT ARE
• 25:09
  PHYSICALLY HERE TOO. YOU'LL HEAR FROM THEM AS WELL. ABOUT WHY
• 25:11
  THEY'RE RUNNING AND THE THINGS THAT THEY'RE FIGHTING FOR. AND
• 25:15
  SO NOW I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO BOB, AND HE'S
• 25:18
  GOING TO WELCOME THE PASTORS THAT ARE HERE. THANK YOU, TERRI.
• 25:22
  LET'S HEAR IT AGAIN FOR TERRI. AND THAT'S NO JOKE. THAT'S
• 25:27
  HUNDREDS OF HOURS IN THE VOTER GUIDE, AND WE'RE GOING TO TALK
• 25:30
  ABOUT THOSE THINGS. WE'VE GOT SOME RESOURCES FOR YOU AT THE
• 25:32
  END. BUT WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO NOW, IT'S OUR HONOR TO ALWAYS
• 25:36
  HAVE, OR WHENEVER WE HAVE, OTHER PASTORS IN OUR MIDST. THESE
• 25:42
  PASTORS ARE ON THE FRONT LINES, LIKE PASTOR BRENDA SAID. TODAY'S
• 25:46
  EQUIVALENT, IN MY OPINION AND THE OPINION OF MANY PEOPLE WHO
• 25:49
  ARE HERE, IS OUR PASTORS ARE TODAY'S BLACK ROBE REGIMENT THAT
• 25:54
  SERVED OUR COUNTRY AND OUR PEOPLE AT ITS FOUNDING IN THE
• 25:57
  LATE 1700S. THEY'RE CRITICAL PEOPLE TO US, AND WE'RE THRILLED
• 26:01
  THAT YOU'RE HERE. I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO JOE AND LAURA
• 26:04
  LAUGHLIN FROM VICTORY CHURCH. THANKS FOR COMING, YOU GUYS.
• 26:12
  MIKE AND KATHY GARDNER, YES, PLEASE STAND UP. STAND UP WHEN
• 26:15
  THE APPLAUSE IS OVER. THANK YOU, GUYS. MIKE AND KATHY GARDNER
• 26:20
  FROM HARVEST CHURCH, THEY CAME ALL THE WAY FROM NORFOLK,
• 26:22
  NEBRASKA. TONY AND JEANETTE FINLEY ARE HERE FROM FAITH
• 26:29
  FAMILY CHURCH IN OMAHA. I'M GONNA GET YOUR LAST NAME WRONG.
• 26:38
  I'M SO SORRY. WE HAVE DAVID AND NATALIE LEGGETT. LEGGETT, I GOT
• 26:44
  IT RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING. DAVID AND NATALIE FROM
• 26:49
  NEW LIFE FELLOWSHIP OVER IN COUNCIL BLUFFS. AND WE ALSO HAVE
• 26:53
  ELI NELSON HERE FROM CHURCH OF THE HEARTLAND. AND ELI BROUGHT A
• 27:00
  SMALL TEAM WITH HIM, HIS PARENTS SCOTT AND CHARLIE AND BRENT.
• 27:02
  THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING TONIGHT. AND WHAT I'D ALSO LIKE
• 27:08
  TO DO, ARE THERE ANY OTHER PASTORS, CLERGY, FULL-TIME
• 27:12
  MINISTERS IN THE ROOM? WOULD YOU PLEASE STAND UP? ALL RIGHT.
• 27:21
  WELCOME. THANK YOU FOR COMING. THE CAUSE FOR CHRIST DOES NOT
• 27:27
  HAPPEN UNLESS YOU PASTORS ANSWER THE CALL, FULFILL THE CALL, AND
• 27:33
  CONTINUE TO DO THAT THE REST OF THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE. SO WE'RE
• 27:36
  HONORED TO HAVE YOU WITH US TONIGHT. AND NOW IT'S MY
• 27:39
  DISTINCT HONOR TO INTRODUCE OUR SPECIAL GUEST, RICK GREEN, THE
• 27:43
  HONORABLE RICK GREEN. SO I HAD TO DO SOME READING ABOUT RICK.
• 27:48
  AND RICK IS A VERY HUMBLE GUY. HE'S GOING TO ENJOY THIS
• 27:51
  INTRODUCTION IMMENSELY. I HAVE 4 PAGES. HE'S STILL BACKSTAGE. THE
• 28:02
  HONORABLE RICK GREEN. HE IS A FORMER TEXAS STATE
• 28:04
  REPRESENTATIVE. SO WHEN IT COMES TO THE POLITICAL ARENA, RICK
• 28:08
  LIVED IT. HE'S A LAWYER. WELL, I THOUGHT I'D HAVE A PAUSE THERE.
• 28:14
  HE EARNED HIS JD FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN.
• 28:19
  ARE THERE ANY HUSKER FANS IN THE CROWD? HAWKEYE FANS? SEE, I
• 28:24
  THOUGHT THAT WOULD GET MORE OF A RESPONSE. RICK IS ALSO CO-HOST
• 28:27
  OF A DAILY PROGRAM YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD ON THE RADIO CALLED
• 28:30
  WALLBUILDERS WITH DAVID AND TIM BARTON. YEP, LET'S HEAR IT FOR
• 28:34
  WALLBUILDERS. I THINK RICK AND THE BARTONS HAVE FORGOT MORE
• 28:38
  THAN WE'LL EVER LEARN ABOUT AMERICAN HISTORY. THOSE GUYS ARE
• 28:40
  AMAZING. HE ALSO HOSTS A PROGRAM AT THE CORE, WHICH IS TWICE A
• 28:44
  WEEK, AND HE'S A REGULAR GUEST ALONG WITH PASTOR HANK ON
• 28:48
  FLASHPOINT. AND MANY OF US HERE PROBABLY GOT TO KNOW HIM FROM
• 28:51
  FLASHPOINT. RICK AND HIS WIFE, KARA, THEY'RE ALSO ENTREPRENEURS
• 28:56
  WHO CO-FOUNDED THE PATRIOT ACADEMY MORE THAN 2 DECADES AGO.
• 29:01
  YEP, LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE PATRIOT ACADEMY. PATRIOT ACADEMY
• 29:04
  IS IN FREDERICKSBURG, TEXAS, AND IT'S BECOME A PROMINENT FORCE IN
• 29:09
  EDUCATING PEOPLE FROM ACROSS THE UNITED STATES ON OUR NATION'S
• 29:13
  FOUNDING AND OUR BIBLICAL HERITAGE. RICK'S PASSION IS
• 29:17
  ABOUT BRINGING AMERICA'S FORGOTTEN HEROES, MANY OF WHICH
• 29:21
  SHARE OUR COMMON FAITH IN CHRIST, TO THE FOREFRONT. HIS
• 29:25
  GOAL IS TO BECOME— AND THIS WAS STATED— HIS GOAL, AND I LOVE IT,
• 29:28
  HIS GOAL IS TO BECOME SALT AND LIGHT IN EVERY AREA OF LIFE AND
• 29:33
  TO UNDERSTAND AND SHARE GOD'S— AMERICA'S, EXCUSE ME, GODLY
• 29:37
  HERITAGE. THE PATRIOT ACADEMY IS AN ELITE LEADERSHIP TRAINING
• 29:41
  PROGRAM FOR ALL AGES SPECIALIZE IN APPLIED CIVICS WITH A
• 29:45
  BIBLICAL, HISTORICAL, AND CONSTITUTIONAL FOUNDATION. NOW
• 29:50
  OF US, THAT LAST SENTENCE SOUNDS SLIGHTLY BETTER
• 29:53
  THAN GETTING BAMBOO SHOVED UNDERNEATH OUR FINGERNAILS,
• 29:57
  RIGHT? CIVICS IS A BIG WORD. IT'S A TOUGH THING TO GET
• 30:00
  INVOLVED IN. BUT LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING FROM FIRSTHAND
• 30:04
  EXPERIENCE. RICK'S HIGH ENERGY, HIS DEEP KNOWLEDGE, AND HIS
• 30:08
  DOWN-TO-EARTH PERSONALITY, THEY'RE GOING TO CAPTIVATE YOU
• 30:11
  TONIGHT. AND THE HUMOROUS WAY THAT HE SHARES FACTUAL
• 30:14
  INFORMATION ABOUT WHO WE ARE AS AMERICANS AND WHERE WE CAME
• 30:19
  FROM, IT'S GOING TO INSPIRE YOU TONIGHT, AND IT'S GONNA HELP YOU
• 30:23
  STAY AND GET INVOLVED AND STAY INVOLVED. HE'S KNOWN AS
• 30:26
  AMERICA'S CONSTITUTIONAL COACH.
• 30:28
  LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, RICK GREEN.
• 30:36
  THANK YOU, BOB. ALL RIGHT. LEAVE IT TO MY BUDDY BOB
• 30:43
  TO TOTALLY, TOTALLY SET ME UP FOR FAILURE. NOT 2 STRIKES, BUT
• 30:47
  3 STRIKES. POLITICIAN, LAWYER, AND UT AUSTIN GRAD. SO, YOU
• 30:50
  KNOW, HERE I AM IN CORNHUSKER COUNTRY AND HE INTRODUCES ME
• 30:53
  LIKE THAT. THANKS A LOT, BROTHER. BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS
• 30:57
  I'M ACTUALLY A RECOVERING POLITICIAN. I GO TO A TUESDAY
• 31:00
  NIGHT MEETING EVERY WEEK. HI, I'M RICK. YOU KNOW, I'M 8 YEARS
• 31:05
  CLEAN OFF THE BALLOT, SO THAT'S GOOD. BUT SO I'M PRAYING FOR YOU
• 31:10
  GUYS. WHERE'D OUR CANDIDATES GO? I CAN'T REMEMBER WHERE. OH YES,
• 31:12
  YES. PRAYING FOR Y'ALL AND THANKFUL FOR YOU. AND I SAY
• 31:15
  THAT, OF COURSE, JOKING. I THINK WE ARE PROBABLY TOO CYNICAL.
• 31:18
  WHAT WE WANT ARE NOT POLITICIANS. WE WANT PATRIOTS.
• 31:21
  ALL RIGHT. AND THE DIFFERENCE— IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE
• 31:24
  DIFFERENCE AS YOU GET READY TO GO VOTE. A POLITICIAN IS ONLY
• 31:27
  THINKING ABOUT THE NEXT ELECTION. A PATRIOT IS THINKING
• 31:30
  ABOUT THE NEXT GENERATION. SO THEIR DECISIONS AND WHAT THEY DO
• 31:33
  AND EVEN WHY THEY'RE DOING IT— I KNOW THESE FOLKS. I KNOW WHY
• 31:35
  THEY'RE DOING IT. THEY'RE DOING IT FOR THEIR GRANDCHILDREN
• 31:37
  AND YOUR GRANDCHILDREN, MY GRANDCHILDREN. SO THAT'S WHAT WE
• 31:40
  WANT MORE OF. SO WE CAN JOKE ABOUT BEING CYNICAL, BUT WE
• 31:43
  CAN'T BE CYNICAL ANYMORE. WE CAN'T JUST STAY HOME AND HOPE
• 31:46
  THAT SOMEBODY ELSE WILL TAKE CARE OF IT. MAN, PASTOR BRENDA
• 31:49
  WAS PREACHING FIRE, AS MY KIDS MIGHT SAY. IS IT SPITTING BARS,
• 31:52
  LAYING BARS? I DON'T KNOW, THEY HAVE ALL THESE WEIRD PHRASES. I
• 31:54
  DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. ANYWAY, THAT WAS AMAZING. I'M
• 31:57
  STEALING EVERY WORD THAT YOU SAID. I'LL GIVE YOU CREDIT THE
• 32:00
  FIRST TIME I USE IT. AFTER THAT, IT'S MINE. THAT WAS AWESOME.
• 32:02
  EVERY WORD YOU SAID, SPOT ON. SO LET ME JUST START WITH KIND OF
• 32:05
  WHERE WE ARE AS A COUNTRY RIGHT NOW. SORT OF WHAT TIME IS IT?
• 32:08
  HOW CAN WE BECOME GOOD MEN AND WOMEN OF ISSACHAR THAT
• 32:11
  UNDERSTAND THE TIMES? AND THEN WE'LL TALK ABOUT KNOWING WHAT TO
• 32:14
  DO. HOW DO WE ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON
• 32:17
  IN A POSITIVE WAY? WE DON'T HAVE TO BE DEPRESSED ABOUT THIS. ONE
• 32:19
  REASON I LOVE COMING TO LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH IS BECAUSE THE JOY
• 32:23
  HERE IS AMAZING. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW BAD THE FIGHT IS OR
• 32:26
  HOW HARD THE FIGHT IS. EVEN WHEN WE WERE EXPERIENCING ABSOLUTE
• 32:28
  TYRANNY IN THIS COUNTRY, THERE WAS JOY COMING OUT OF THIS
• 32:30
  PULPIT. ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU HAVE
• 32:36
  JOY WITH COLLARS THAT HIGH, HANK, BUT ANYWAY, THAT WOULD
• 32:39
  LIKE ITCH MY HEAD OR MY NECK OR SOMETHING. AND WHAT IS
• 32:49
  HAPPENING? DO I HAVE TO GO PUT THE GREEN BAY SHIRT ON AGAIN? DO
• 32:55
  I HAVE TO WEAR THE MUSTARD YELLOW SHIRT AGAIN? THE
• 32:58
  CHEESEHEADS ARE GONNA TACKLE ME BACKSTAGE. THE HOOK IS COMING.
• 33:03
  ALL RIGHT, ANYWAY, SO SERIOUSLY, HANK AND BRENDA ARE SO GOOD AT
• 33:06
  THAT. JUST LITERALLY COUNTING IT ALL JOY WHEN WE EXPERIENCE
• 33:09
  VARIOUS TRIALS, 'CAUSE GOD'S USING THAT TO TEACH US PATIENCE
• 33:12
  AND PERSEVERANCE, MAKE US PERFECT AND COMPLETE. SO WHETHER
• 33:15
  WE'RE IN THE TOUGH, TOUGH, TOUGH TIMES, OR WE'RE IN, I THINK
• 33:17
  RIGHT NOW, A REPRIEVE AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOME REALLY
• 33:19
  GREAT THINGS, IN AMERICA, I LOVE THE FACT THAT THEY STAY STEADY,
• 33:23
  THAT THE JOY COMES FROM THE LORD. IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF WHERE
• 33:26
  WE ARE OR WHO'S IN THE WHITE HOUSE, IT'S BECAUSE OF WHOSE WE
• 33:29
  ARE, RIGHT? AND SO THAT WE CAN APPROACH THIS WHOLE TOPIC
• 33:31
  TONIGHT WITH A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE THAN THOSE
• 33:35
  WHO DO NOT HAVE THE JOY OF THE LORD. SO I LOVE THE 250TH. I
• 33:38
  DON'T KNOW IF— ARE MY SLIDES HOOKING IN? NO, THEY'RE NOT. OR
• 33:41
  ARE THEY? YES. LOOK AT THAT BEAUTIFUL SLIDE. THAT'S AN
• 33:43
  AMAZING, AMAZING PICTURE RIGHT THERE. THERE WE GO. ALL RIGHT.
• 33:47
  SO I LOVE THE 250TH. WE WERE THE 250TH BIRTHDAY OF THE NATION. SO
• 33:50
  IT'S A PERFECT TIME FOR US TO TALK ABOUT WHY WE'RE GOING TO
• 33:53
  VOTE AND WHAT IT IS THAT WE'RE VOTING FOR, WHAT WE'RE TRYING
• 33:55
  TO— EVEN WHEN WE SAY I'M A CONSERVATIVE, WHAT ARE WE TRYING
• 33:58
  TO CONSERVE? IF WE WANT TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, WHAT MADE
• 34:01
  AMERICA GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE? WHAT IS IT THAT WE'RE
• 34:04
  FIGHTING FOR? SO THIS YEAR IS A PERFECT TIME TO DO THAT. I LOVE
• 34:06
  ALL THESE CELEBRATIONS. THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN SO HELPFUL
• 34:10
  AND BEEN WILLING TO WORK WITH US AND EVERY DATE WE'VE GIVEN THEM.
• 34:12
  I MEAN, WHETHER IT WAS THE MAY 17TH REDEDICATION OR JUNE 14TH,
• 34:16
  FLAG DAY, OR ANY OF THESE WONDERFUL TIMES TO HAVE CIVIC
• 34:19
  RITUAL IN AMERICA AND REMIND US WHO WE ARE. THEY HAVE BEEN
• 34:22
  ACTIVE ON THAT. AND I'M JUST TELLING YOU FROM BEING THERE
• 34:25
  FIRSTHAND, WORKING WITH THE PEOPLE 3 YEARS AGO THAT WERE
• 34:28
  STARTING TO LOOK TOWARDS THE 250TH, THAT THE PEOPLE COMING
• 34:31
  OUT OF WASHINGTON, D.C. THAT WERE IN CHARGE OF ALL OF THIS,
• 34:33
  IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DRAG QUEEN STORY HOUR ALL YEAR LONG. I'M
• 34:36
  SERIOUS. I KNOW THAT'S FUNNY, BUT I'M SERIOUS. IT'S THE TRUTH.
• 34:39
  THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE PLANNING. IT WAS ALL THIS CRAZY
• 34:42
  STUFF. THANKFULLY, GOD GAVE US A REPRIEVE, AND DONALD J. TRUMP,
• 34:46
  EVEN THOUGH HE KIND OF DISTRACTED FROM TONIGHT— HOW
• 34:49
  DARE HIM COME WITHIN 3 HOURS OF WHERE I HAD TO FOLLOW HIM ONE
• 34:53
  TIME AT ONE EVENT. IT WAS A FAITH AND FAMILY COALITION
• 34:55
  EVENT. AND OF COURSE, HE'S SUPPOSED TO GO AN HOUR AND HE
• 34:58
  GOES 2.5 HOURS INTO MY SPEAKING TIME. SO IMAGINE THAT, THE
• 35:02
  PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TAKING MY SPEAKING TIME. NO. SO
• 35:04
  ANYWAY, I'M THRILLED FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT GOT TO GO SEE HIM
• 35:06
  TONIGHT. WHERE WAS IT? WHAT TOWN DID YOU SAY IT WAS? YEAH, THERE.
• 35:09
  SO ANYWAY, I'M JUST GLAD HE'S IN NEBRASKA. THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU
• 35:12
  GUYS THAT HE'S GETTING PEOPLE EXCITED AND ENCOURAGING THEM TO
• 35:16
  TURN OUT. BUT ANYWAY, HIS TEAM AT THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN
• 35:20
  PHENOMENAL TO WORK WITH. SO WHEN I SAY, LIKE, FOR INSTANCE, JUNE
• 35:22
  14TH, FLAG DAY, WHAT THEY DID WAS THEY USED THAT DAY TO TEACH
• 35:26
  CIVIC RITUAL. AND THE REASON THEY HAD THE UFC FIGHTS AT THE
• 35:29
  WHITE HOUSE AND HAD THE MARINE CORPS BAND DOING THE MUSIC AND
• 35:32
  ALL OF THAT WAS TO BRING ATTENTION TO THE AMERICAN STORY.
• 35:35
  SO IF YOU HAPPEN TO WATCH THAT NIGHT, IN BETWEEN EACH OF THE
• 35:38
  FIGHTS— I KNOW THIS IS ONE OF THE FEW CHURCHES I CAN TALK
• 35:40
  ABOUT THE UFC— AND MY FAVORITE UFC FIGHTER IS A KID NAMED JON
• 35:42
  KUNNEMAN. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE HEARD OF HIM OR NOT, BUT HE'S MY
• 35:46
  FAVORITE. BUT THAT NIGHT, IT WAS SO COOL. THERE'S 150 MILLION
• 35:50
  PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD WATCHING, AND IN BETWEEN EACH
• 35:53
  FIGHT, THEY PLAYED VIDEOS THAT TAUGHT CIVICS. SO THEY HAD
• 35:58
  EVERYBODY'S ATTENTION, AND THEN WHILE THEY HAD THEIR ATTENTION,
• 36:01
  THEY PLAYED A VIDEO OF RONALD REAGAN GIVING HIS
• 36:03
  ENTIRE FLAG DAY SPEECH ON JUNE 14TH, 40 YEARS AGO, TEACHING
• 36:06
  ABOUT WHY THAT FLAG RIGHT THERE IS WORTHY OF BEING WAVED SO THAT
• 36:10
  WE DON'T JUST WAVE THE FLAG, BUT WE UNDERSTAND WHY THAT ONE IS
• 36:13
  WORTHY OF BEING WAVED, WHAT IT STANDS FOR. THEY PLAYED BETWEEN
• 36:16
  A COUPLE OF FIGHTS, THEY PLAYED THIS MONTAGE OF QUOTES FROM
• 36:19
  PRESIDENTS AND FOUNDING FATHERS TALKING ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF
• 36:22
  BEING PATRIOTIC AND CIVIC RITUAL AND PARTICIPATING IN YOUR
• 36:25
  GOVERNMENT AND ALL THOSE THINGS. IT WAS JUST A PHENOMENAL,
• 36:27
  PHENOMENAL EVENING. AND THEN THE EVENING CAPPED OFF, THE LAST
• 36:31
  FIGHT OF THE NIGHT, IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THE KID THAT
• 36:33
  WAS IN THE FIGHT ACTUALLY TRAINS WITH JOHN, GOOD FRIEND OF
• 36:35
  JOHN'S, AND NOBODY THOUGHT THIS KID WAS GONNA WIN. HE'S FROM
• 36:39
  ARIZONA, HE WAS AN UNDERDOG, 6-TO-1 UNDERDOG. THE GUY HE'S
• 36:41
  FIGHTING FROM SPAIN WAS AN UNDEFEATED CHAMPION OF 2
• 36:45
  DIVISIONS. I MEAN, JUST A BEAST. NOBODY THOUGHT THAT JUSTIN
• 36:49
  GAETHJE WAS GONNA WIN THAT FIGHT. AND HE ENDS UP, WELL, IN
• 36:52
  FACT, WHEN IT OPENED UP, LET ME SHOW YOU THIS SLIDE TOO. SO THE
• 36:55
  PICTURE, WHAT THEY DID WHEN THEY DID THE WALKOUT, YOU KNOW, IF
• 36:58
  YOU WATCH A BOXING MATCH, IF YOU'RE NOT A UFC FAN BUT YOU
• 37:00
  WATCH BOXING, IF YOU'VE EVER SEEN A BOXING MATCH, IF YOU'VE
• 37:02
  EVER SEEN THE WALKOUT, THEY PLAY THE SONG CHOICE OF THE FIGHTER.
• 37:05
  AND THEN AS THEY'RE WALKING OUT, IT'S A BIG CEREMONIAL THING.
• 37:08
  WELL, BECAUSE THEY WERE AT THE WHITE HOUSE, THEY EACH GOT TO
• 37:10
  WALK OUT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. AND SO YOU GOT TO SEE ALL THIS
• 37:12
  ARCHITECTURE AND HISTORY AND COOL THINGS. WELL, IT OPENS UP
• 37:16
  ON JUSTIN GAETHJE AND HE'S STANDING IN THE OVAL OFFICE WITH
• 37:19
  THE AMERICAN FLAG WRAPPED AROUND HIM, LOOKING UP AT THE
• 37:22
  DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. I MEAN, COME ON. I CAME OUT OF MY
• 37:27
  CHAIR. I WAS LIKE, YEAH, LET'S GO, JUSTIN. I'M SO GLAD YOU DID
• 37:32
  THAT RIGHT BEFORE YOU GO GET YOUR BRAINS BEAT IN. ACTUALLY
• 37:36
  PUT MONEY ON IT ANYWAY. NO. SO I WAS THINKING, THOUGH, I'M FOR AN
• 37:40
  UNDERDOG ANYWAY. BUT OF COURSE I'M YELLING AND SCREAMING FOR
• 37:42
  THE AMERICAN. WELL, THIS KID GOES OUT, BY THE WAY, HIS SONG,
• 37:45
  THERE AIN'T NO GRAVE. I LOVE IT ANYWAY. SO HE WALKS OUT THERE.
• 37:49
  HE ENDS UP WINNING THE FIGHT. IT WAS AMAZING. AND THEN JOE ROGAN
• 37:53
  SHOVES THE MICROPHONE IN HIS FACE AND SAYS, JUSTIN, YOU WERE
• 37:56
  A 6-TO-1 UNDERDOG. THIS WAS IMPOSSIBLE. HOW DO YOU FEEL
• 37:59
  RIGHT NOW? AND JUSTIN'S RESPONSE IS, JOE, 250 YEARS AGO, AMERICA
• 38:04
  WAS WORSE THAN 6-TO-1 UNDERDOGS. I'M AN AMERICAN. THIS IS IN MY
• 38:07
  DNA. YEAH, BABY. I LOVE THAT. I LOVE THAT. SO THE 250TH IS AN
• 38:15
  EXCITING TIME TO BE ALIVE. I'M SO THANKFUL THAT GOD'S PUT US
• 38:18
  HERE. RONALD REAGAN USED TO SAY, I'M GLAD WE DON'T LIVE IN PALE
• 38:21
  AND TIMID TIMES. I'M GLAD WE LIVE AT A TIME WHERE WHAT WE'RE
• 38:24
  DOING MAKES A DIFFERENCE. THIS IS AN INFLECTION POINT IN
• 38:29
  AMERICA'S HISTORY. WE'RE AT THE 250TH. WE HAVE TO DECIDE, DO WE
• 38:33
  WANT AMERICA TO BE GREAT AGAIN, OR ARE WE GOING TO LET HER FALL
• 38:35
  APART? MOST NATIONS FALL APART AT 250 YEARS. THAT'S THE NORMAL,
• 38:39
  REALLY ABOUT 240 TO 260 YEARS. MOST GREAT NATIONS HAVE
• 38:43
  CRUMBLED. RABBI DANIEL LAPIN HAS A GREAT PIECE ON THIS, AND HE
• 38:45
  DOCUMENTS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM. AND SO WE'RE RIGHT IN THE
• 38:48
  MIDDLE OF THAT AT 250, AND NORMALLY YOU WOULD FALL APART.
• 38:52
  HERE'S WHY WE HAVE A CHANCE FOR AMERICA TO HAVE ANOTHER 250
• 38:55
  YEARS, SHOULD THE LORD TARRY. I DON'T KNOW WHEN HE'S COMING
• 38:57
  BACK. JESUS SAID NO MAN KNOWS. SO, YOU KNOW, HE MAY COME BACK
• 39:01
  TOMORROW AND MESS UP ALL MY PLANS. PRAISE GOD, I HOPE THAT
• 39:03
  HAPPENS. BUT IF HE DOESN'T AND HE TARRIES FOR ANOTHER 50 YEARS
• 39:08
  OR 150 YEARS OR 250 YEARS OR WHATEVER IT IS, I WANT TO MAKE
• 39:11
  SURE I'M HANDING TO MY GRANDCHILDREN A NATION WHERE
• 39:14
  THEY HAVE THE FREEDOM TO WORSHIP GOD AS THEY CHOOSE. I WANT TO
• 39:20
  MAKE SURE THAT I'M HANDING MY GRANDCHILDREN THE FREEDOM TO BE
• 39:23
  ABLE TO CHOOSE WHAT GOD CALLED THEM TO, SO THAT THEY GET TO
• 39:25
  CHOOSE WHAT THEY DO WITH THEIR LIVES, NOT HAVE SOME DICTATOR
• 39:28
  TELL THEM WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO. I WANT THEM TO LIVE IN
• 39:30
  FREEDOM, IN OTHER WORDS. AND SO THE WAY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE
• 39:33
  HAVE A CHANCE AT ANOTHER 250 YEARS IS TO TAKE THE ADVICE OF
• 39:36
  THE FOUNDING FATHERS. THIS GUY GEORGE MASON WAS THE FATHER OF
• 39:38
  THE BILL OF RIGHTS. HE WAS A FRAMER OF THE CONSTITUTION. ONE
• 39:41
  OF THE 55 THAT FRAMED IT, NOT ONE OF THE 39 THAT SIGNED IT. HE
• 39:44
  WAS ONE OF THE ONES THAT REFUSED TO SIGN BECAUSE IT DIDN'T YET
• 39:47
  END SLAVERY COMPLETELY, AND IT DIDN'T HAVE THE BILL OF RIGHTS
• 39:50
  IN THE CONSTITUTION AT THE TIME THEY DID THE CONSTITUTION THAT
• 39:52
  SUMMER IN 1787. BUT HE SAID THIS, HE SAID, NO FREE
• 39:55
  GOVERNMENT NOR THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY CAN BE PRESERVED TO ANY
• 39:57
  PEOPLE BUT BY A FREQUENT RECURRENCE TO FUNDAMENTAL
• 40:00
  PRINCIPLES. AND IF YOU BREAK THAT DOWN, WHAT HE'S SAYING IS
• 40:02
  IF WE WANT THAT FREEDOM, IF WE WANT TO PASS IT TO OUR CHILDREN
• 40:04
  AND OUR GRANDCHILDREN, THEN WE HAVE TO HAVE A FREQUENT
• 40:07
  RECURRENCE TO THE PRINCIPLES THAT ACTUALLY GAVE US THAT
• 40:09
  FREEDOM IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO IN OTHER WORDS, WHAT DID WE PUT
• 40:12
  INTO THE CULTURE TO GET THE OUTPUTS OF FREEDOM AND THE
• 40:15
  BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY? AND IF WE WANT TO HAVE 250 MORE YEARS OF
• 40:18
  THAT, WE GOT TO KNOW WHAT THE FORMULA IS. SO I'M GOING TO GIVE
• 40:21
  YOU A FEW QUOTES. WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS FOR JUST A MINUTE,
• 40:23
  AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO TALK SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE DUTY TO
• 40:26
  VOTE, THE RESPONSIBILITY, NOT JUST A RIGHT, BUT THE DUTY TO
• 40:30
  VOTE AND PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROCESS. SO BENJAMIN RUSH, ONE
• 40:32
  OF THE SIGNERS OF THE DECLARATION, OTHER FOUNDING
• 40:35
  FATHERS AT THE TIME SAID HE WAS ONE OF THE TOP 3 MOST IMPORTANT
• 40:37
  FOUNDING FATHERS. WE DON'T TALK ABOUT HIM A LOT TODAY, BUT HE
• 40:39
  WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN THE FOUNDING OF THIS COUNTRY. AND THIS QUOTE
• 40:42
  REALLY DOES TELL YOU WHY OUR FAITH— NUMBER 1, WHY AS
• 40:45
  CHRISTIANS WE HAVE A DUTY TO DO THIS, BUT NUMBER 2, WHY IT'S A
• 40:48
  BLESSING TO EVERYONE IN AMERICA WHEN CHRISTIANS HAVE THEIR VOICE
• 40:52
  HEARD. HE SAYS, CHRISTIANITY IS THE ONLY TRUE AND PERFECT
• 40:54
  RELIGION. IN PROPORTION AS MANKIND ADOPTS ITS PRINCIPLES
• 40:57
  AND OBEYS ITS PRECEPTS, THEY WILL BE WISE AND HAPPY. THE
• 41:00
  GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST PRESCRIBES THE WISEST RULES FOR
• 41:03
  JUST CONDUCT IN EVERY SITUATION OF LIFE. HAPPY THEY ARE WHO ARE
• 41:06
  ENABLED TO OBEY THEM IN ALL SITUATIONS. THE BIBLE CONTAINS
• 41:09
  MORE KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY TO MAN IN HIS PRESENT STATE THAN ANY
• 41:12
  OTHER BOOK IN THE WORLD. BY RENOUNCING THE BIBLE,
• 41:14
  PHILOSOPHERS SWING FROM THEIR MOORINGS UPON ALL MORAL
• 41:17
  SUBJECTS. NOW THINK ABOUT WHAT THAT LINE MEANS. WHEN YOU
• 41:19
  RENOUNCE THE BIBLE, YOU SWING FROM YOUR MOORINGS. SO NOW
• 41:21
  YOU'RE NOT ANCHORED TO ANYTHING. YOU ACTUALLY GET SO DECEIVED YOU
• 41:24
  DON'T KNOW WHAT A WOMAN IS. YOU GET SO DECEIVED, YOU THINK MEN
• 41:29
  CAN HAVE BABIES. I MEAN, WE'RE AT THAT POINT. WE'RE LITERALLY
• 41:32
  LIVING OUT— WE RENOUNCE THE BIBLE, SO NOW THESE PHILOSOPHERS
• 41:35
  HAVE SWUNG COMPLETELY FROM ANY KIND OF AN ANCHOR. THE BIBLE IS
• 41:39
  THE ONLY CORRECT MAP OF THE HUMAN HEART THAT HAS EVER BEEN
• 41:41
  PUBLISHED. THE ONLY MEANS— SO THIS IS TO THE ELECTION— THE
• 41:45
  ONLY MEANS OF ESTABLISHING AND PERPETUATING OUR DEMOCRACY.
• 41:49
  THANK YOU FOR CATCHING THAT. OUR REPUBLICAN FORMS OF GOVERNMENT.
• 41:54
  WE ARE NOT A DEMOCRACY. WE ARE A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. WE'RE
• 41:56
  NOT EVEN JUST A PURE REPUBLIC. WE'RE NOT GOING TO ELECT THESE
• 41:59
  FOLKS AND SAY, HEY, JUST GO DO THE BEST YOU CAN. WE'RE GOING TO
• 42:01
  ELECT THESE FOLKS AND SAY, HEY, GO DO THE BEST YOU CAN WITHIN
• 42:04
  THESE BOUNDARIES, BECAUSE THE CONSTITUTION GIVES US A
• 42:08
  DEFINITION OF WHAT AUTHORITY THEY HAVE OR DON'T HAVE. SO
• 42:11
  ANYWAY, OUR REPUBLICAN FORMS OF GOVERNMENT. AND BY THE WAY, IF
• 42:14
  ANYBODY EVER TELLS YOU YOU'RE A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY, YOUR
• 42:17
  RESPONSE SHOULD BE, YOU'RE DARN RIGHT, BECAUSE THESE GUYS SAID
• 42:21
  DEMOCRACY WAS MOBOCRACY. THEY CALLED IT ONE OF THE GREATEST OF
• 42:25
  EVILS. THEY SAID, WE DON'T WANT THAT. IT ALWAYS ENDS IN
• 42:28
  VIOLENCE. IT ALWAYS FALLS APART. WE DON'T WANT DEMOCRACY. WE WANT
• 42:30
  TO BE A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. ANYWAY, HE SAID, THE ONLY MEANS
• 42:32
  WE'RE GOING TO PERPETUATE— IN OTHER WORDS, PASS THIS ON TO THE
• 42:35
  NEXT GENERATION— IS THE UNIVERSAL EDUCATION OF OUR YOUTH
• 42:37
  IN THE PRINCIPLES OF CHRISTIANITY BY MEANS OF THE
• 42:39
  BIBLE. IN OTHER WORDS, WE HAVE TO HAVE THE BIBLICAL FOUNDATIONS
• 42:42
  THAT'S WHAT MADE US GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE. WE'VE GOT TO COME
• 42:45
  BACK TO IT. ANOTHER ONE OF THE GUYS THAT FRAMED THE
• 42:47
  CONSTITUTION WAS FROM MARYLAND. OH, THERE WE GO. SORRY, WE CAN
• 42:52
  SKIP THAT ONE. IT IS LOCKING UP. OH, SORRY, GUYS. I TELL YOU
• 42:56
  WHAT, I'LL DO THIS AND Y'ALL ADVANCE. OH, NO, YOU CAN'T,
• 42:58
  BECAUSE WE'RE GOING FROM HERE, AREN'T WE? LET'S SEE. I'M GOING
• 43:03
  TO TRY IT HERE. OKAY. JAMES MCHENRY. HERE WE GO. SO HE'S AT
• 43:07
  THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION. HE STARTS THE MARYLAND BIBLE
• 43:09
  SOCIETY. BY THE WAY, BENJAMIN RUSH STARTED THE PHILADELPHIA
• 43:11
  BIBLE SOCIETY. THESE GUYS STARTED THE AMERICAN BIBLE
• 43:13
  SOCIETY, ALL THESE DIFFERENT BIBLE SOCIETIES. WHY WOULD THEY
• 43:16
  START BIBLE SOCIETIES IF THEY DIDN'T WANT THE BIBLE TO BE IN
• 43:19
  THE CULTURE? THEY'RE DOING THAT TO SPREAD THE WORD OF GOD, TO
• 43:22
  TEACH THE WORD OF GOD, TO GET PEOPLE TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD.
• 43:24
  THEY UNDERSTOOD THAT IF THE BIBLE PERMEATES THE CULTURE, THE
• 43:27
  CULTURE REFLECTS BIBLICAL VALUES. AND IF YOU SAY, WELL, I
• 43:30
  DON'T KNOW IF I WANT BIBLICAL VALUES REFLECTED, WELL, LET'S
• 43:33
  SEE, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE PEOPLE
• 43:36
  ACTUALLY TREAT THEIR NEIGHBORS THE WAY THEY WANT TO BE TREATED?
• 43:40
  I THINK THAT'S WRITTEN DOWN SOMEWHERE IN THE BIBLE. HOW
• 43:44
  WOULD YOU LIKE TO LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD? IMAGINE THIS. THIS
• 43:46
  WOULD BE CRAZY. WHAT IF YOU LIVED IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE
• 43:48
  PEOPLE THOUGHT MURDER IS WRONG? WOULDN'T IT BE NICE TO HAVE
• 43:54
  NEIGHBORS? I WISH WE ARE BROADCASTING THIS. ALL VIEWERS
• 43:57
  IN CALIFORNIA, LISTEN CLOSE. WOULDN'T IT BE NICE TO HAVE
• 44:01
  NEIGHBORS WHO ACTUALLY THINK STEALING IS WRONG AND THERE'S NO
• 44:04
  $900 EXCEPTION TO THE EIGHTH COMMANDMENT? I KIND OF LIKE
• 44:09
  THOSE BIBLICAL VALUES. WHAT ABOUT YOU? HONOR YOUR FATHER AND
• 44:13
  MOTHER, YOU KNOW, DON'T DECEIVE. I MEAN, ALL OF THESE THINGS USED
• 44:17
  TO BE TAUGHT IN THE CULTURE BECAUSE IF YOU TEACH THAT, YOU
• 44:19
  GET GOOD NEIGHBORHOODS, YOU GET GOOD NEIGHBORS. I MEAN, EVEN
• 44:22
  JUST LOOK AT THE CONSTITUTION. YOU'VE GOT ALL THESE PHRASES IN
• 44:24
  THE CONSTITUTION BASED ON BIBLICAL— OOPS, LET'S SEE, IS IT
• 44:27
  LOCKED UP AGAIN? OKAY, YOU'VE GOT ALL THESE PHRASES IN THE
• 44:31
  CONSTITUTION. IF Y'ALL WANT TO GO FROM BACK THERE, I'LL JUST DO
• 44:33
  THIS AND THEN Y'ALL JUST KIND OF FOLLOW ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT
• 44:38
  COMING THROUGH, I DON'T THINK. OH, YOU WANT TO TRY AGAIN? ALL
• 44:42
  RIGHT. WHAT WAS I SAYING? I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS SAYING.
• 44:46
  CONSTITUTION. OH YEAH. SO THERE'S PHRASE AFTER PHRASE
• 44:49
  AFTER PHRASE IN THE CONSTITUTION YOU SAW FOR A SECOND THERE
• 44:51
  THAT'S BASED ON A BIBLE VERSE. EVEN THE WAY THAT WE CHOOSE OUR
• 44:54
  LEADERS, THE FACT THAT WE HAVE LEADERS OF TENS, FIFTIES,
• 44:57
  HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS, THAT'S RIGHT OUT OF EXODUS. THAT'S YOUR
• 44:59
  LOCAL, COUNTY, STATE, FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, THE TYPES OF LEADERS
• 45:02
  THAT WE CHOOSE. WE'RE TOLD IN EXODUS, CHOOSE OUT FROM AMONG
• 45:04
  YOU LEADERS OF TENS, FIFTIES, HUNDREDS, AND THOUSANDS, ABLE
• 45:07
  MEN SUCH AS FEAR GOD, MEN OF TRUTH, HATING COVETOUSNESS. SO
• 45:10
  WE EVEN GET A GUIDELINE FOR THE TYPES OF LEADERS TO CHOOSE. YOU
• 45:13
  THINK ABOUT ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE TAKE FOR GRANTED
• 45:16
  IN OUR SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT, EVEN OUR REPUBLICAN FORM OF
• 45:18
  GOVERNMENT, EVEN THE FACT THAT WE HAVE TAX EXEMPTION FOR
• 45:20
  CHURCHES, THE FACT THAT WE HAVE SEPARATION OF POWERS. JEREMIAH
• 45:23
  17:9, THE HEART IS EVIL, NO MAN CAN KNOW IT. OUR FOUNDERS
• 45:26
  UNDERSTOOD WELL, YOU MIGHT BE A GREAT PERSON, BUT IF I PUT ALL
• 45:28
  THE POWER IN YOUR HANDS, YOU'VE GOT EVIL IN YOUR HEART YOU DON'T
• 45:31
  EVEN KNOW IS THERE. THAT POWER WILL— ULTIMATE POWER WOULD
• 45:34
  CORRUPT YOU. SO WE NEED CHECKS AND BALANCES IN ORDER TO KEEP
• 45:36
  THAT FROM HAPPENING. ALL OF THAT IS BASED ON BIBLICAL VALUES AND
• 45:41
  BIBLICAL IDEAS. SO JAMES MCHENRY, BACK TO JAMES MCHENRY,
• 45:43
  HE WAS THE ONE FROM MARYLAND, AND I WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW
• 45:45
  IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE THE BIBLE IN THERE. BIBLES ARE
• 45:48
  STRONG PROTECTIONS. WHERE THEY ABOUND, MEN CANNOT PURSUE WICKED
• 45:52
  COURSES AND AT THE SAME TIME ENJOY QUIET CONSCIENCE. WHAT
• 45:55
  HE'S SAYING IS IF THE BIBLE'S PERMEATING THE CULTURE, RIGHT
• 45:58
  AND WRONG IS KIND OF ON EVERYBODY'S MIND. SO YOU'RE
• 46:01
  CONSTANTLY BEING REMINDED, YOU'RE BEING CONVICTED ABOUT
• 46:03
  RIGHT AND WRONG. SO YOU CAN'T PURSUE EVIL AND HAVE A QUIET
• 46:06
  CONSCIENCE. I MEAN, WE'VE ALL DONE EVIL, BUT IF WE HAVE GOOD,
• 46:09
  IF WE HAVE BIBLICAL VALUES BEING TAUGHT IN THE SCHOOLS AND FROM
• 46:12
  GOVERNMENT AND FROM OUR CHURCH AND ALL THESE DIFFERENT AREAS
• 46:15
  AND OUR MENTORS, AND YOU HAVE WHAT I'M LOVING RIGHT NOW IS
• 46:17
  THESE INFLUENCERS AND ATHLETES THAT ARE IN THEIR PRESS
• 46:20
  CONFERENCES TALKING ABOUT BIBLICAL VALUES. THE MORE THAT
• 46:23
  HAPPENS, THERE'S A CONSCIOUSNESS, A GOD
• 46:25
  THAT IS STARTING TO PERMEATE THE CULTURE. AND
• 46:28
  THAT'S WHAT HE'S REFERRING TO THERE IS IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE
• 46:30
  BIBLE IN THE CULTURE, PEOPLE, THERE'S STILL A SERIES OR THERE
• 46:33
  IS A SEARING OF THE CONSCIENCE THAT TAKES PLACE BECAUSE GOD'S
• 46:36
  WORD IS NOT PERMEATING THE CULTURE. SO LET'S SEE. YEAH, GO
• 46:39
  AHEAD AND GO TO THAT NEXT ONE. PUBLIC UTILITY. SO NOT JUST
• 46:41
  PRIVATELY. OFTEN WE THINK OF OUR SPIRITUAL LIVES AS IT'S JUST FOR
• 46:45
  US PRIVATELY. NO, HE'S SAYING PUBLIC UTILITY. PLEADS MOST
• 46:49
  FORCIBLY FOR THE GENERAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE HOLY
• 46:51
  SCRIPTURES. WITHOUT THE BIBLE, IN VAIN DO WE INCREASE PENAL
• 46:54
  LAWS AND DRAW ENTRENCHMENTS AROUND OUR INSTITUTIONS. IN
• 46:57
  OTHER WORDS, WE CAN PASS ALL THE LAWS TO SAY DON'T KILL, DON'T
• 47:00
  STEAL, DON'T DO THIS, DON'T DO THAT, BUT IF WE DON'T HAVE
• 47:02
  BIBLES IN THE CULTURE, WE'RE JUST PUTTING WORDS ON PAPER. WE
• 47:05
  CAN PASS ALL THOSE LAWS, BUT WE'VE GOT TO HAVE THE BIBLE IN
• 47:07
  THE CULTURE BECAUSE WE HAVE SELF-GOVERNMENT. WITHOUT
• 47:09
  SELF-GOVERNMENT, YOU'RE GOING TO LEAD TO TOTAL TYRANNY. THINK
• 47:12
  ABOUT IT. THE MORE THE MORE WE BELIEVE IN A LICENTIOUSNESS
• 47:17
  WHERE WE JUST SAY EVERYBODY DO WHATEVER FEELS GOOD, DO
• 47:19
  WHATEVER'S RIGHT IN THEIR OWN EYES, THEN MANKIND GOES DOWN
• 47:22
  THAT ROAD AND THE CRAZIER THINGS GET, THE WORSE CRIME GETS, THE
• 47:26
  MORE UNSAFE IT IS EVEN JUST TO WALK FROM THE GROCERY STORE TO
• 47:28
  THE CAR. AND SO SOONER OR LATER, THE PEOPLE START CLAMORING FOR
• 47:32
  GOVERNMENT TO STOP THAT. AND SO WHEN GOVERNMENT TRIES TO COME IN
• 47:35
  AND STOP ALL OF THAT, NOW GOVERNMENT HAS TO BECOME
• 47:37
  TYRANNICAL AND MICROMANAGE EVERY LITTLE THING EVERYONE DOES. YOU
• 47:41
  DON'T WANT IT TO BE THAT WAY. YOU WANT SELF-GOVERNMENT SO THAT
• 47:44
  WE ARE GOVERNING OURSELVES BECAUSE OF THE CONVICTION THAT
• 47:47
  WE GET FROM HEARING THE WORD OF GOD THAT TELLS US TO LIVE A
• 47:50
  CERTAIN WAY AND THEN TREAT OUR NEIGHBORS A CERTAIN WAY. THAT
• 47:53
  ALWAYS PRODUCES A FAR BETTER CULTURE THAN GOVERNMENT TRYING
• 47:55
  TO FORCE IT ON YOU. NOAH WEBSTER SAYS BASICALLY THE SAME THING,
• 47:58
  BUT IN THE REVERSE. HE SAYS, ALL THE MISERIES AND EVILS WHICH MEN
• 48:02
  SUFFER FROM VICE, CRIME, AMBITION, SLAVERY, AND WAR. SO
• 48:04
  ALL THE BAD STUFF YOU DON'T WANT IN THE CULTURE HE SAYS YOU GET
• 48:07
  THAT BECAUSE YOU NEGLECT OR DESPISE THE PRECEPTS CONTAINED
• 48:11
  IN THE BIBLE. SO IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE REJECT THE BIBLE OR WE
• 48:14
  IGNORE IT OR WE JUST KIND OF NEGLECT IT EVEN AS BELIEVERS,
• 48:18
  BECAUSE I USED TO READ THAT AND I'D SAY, I TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW,
• 48:20
  THIS IS, IT'S THE LEFT'S FAULT, IT'S THE COMMUNISTS, IT'S THE
• 48:23
  PROGRESSIVES, IT'S THE DEMOCRATS. BUT I REPEAT MYSELF,
• 48:26
  IT'S THOSE OTHER FOLKS. THEY'RE THE REASON BECAUSE THEY HATE
• 48:31
  GOD'S WORD, THEY DESPISE GOD'S WORD. AND THEN I WAS GIVING A
• 48:33
  PRESENTATION AND THAT WORD NEGLECTING, GOD JUST ILLUMINATED
• 48:36
  IT. I'M LIKE, OH, WAIT A MINUTE, WHO CAN NEGLECT SOMETHING? THE
• 48:40
  PEOPLE THAT HAVE IT. WE HAVE THE PRECEPTS CONTAINED IN THE BIBLE
• 48:45
  THAT APPLY TO EVERYTHING IN LIFE. IT'S THE SOLUTIONS FOR
• 48:49
  EVERYTHING WE'RE FACING AS A CULTURE, AS A FAMILY, AS A
• 48:51
  BUSINESS, AS A CHURCH, ALL OF THAT. AND WE'VE NEGLECTED TO
• 48:54
  APPLY THE PRECEPTS CONTAINED IN THE BIBLE TO THE CULTURAL ISSUES
• 48:57
  OF THE DAY. AND NOW WE'RE GETTING MORE CRIME, MORE
• 49:00
  AMBITION, MORE SLAVERY. WE GOT MORE SLAVES TODAY THAN WE'VE
• 49:02
  EVER HAD IN HISTORY. THE SEX SLAVE SEX TRAFFICKING AROUND THE
• 49:06
  WORLD IS EVEN WORSE THAN SLAVERY WAS 400 YEARS AGO. ALL OF THESE
• 49:10
  THINGS ARE HAPPENING BECAUSE WE NEGLECTED THE PRECEPTS CONTAINED
• 49:13
  IN THE BIBLE. BUT GUESS WHAT? WE THE CHURCH HAVE THE WORD OF GOD,
• 49:17
  AND IF WE STOP NEGLECTING AND WE START EMBRACING AND WE START
• 49:20
  TEACHING AND WE START VOTING BASED ON THOSE PRINCIPLES, WE
• 49:23
  CAN GET RID OF THE BAD STUFF AND GET BACK TO THE GOOD STUFF.
• 49:26
  ANYBODY WANT THAT? SO IT'S NOT COMPLICATED. HERE'S WHAT WE'RE
• 49:32
  ATTEMPTING TO DO. WE'RE TRYING TO TAKE THE ADVICE OF GOOD OLD
• 49:34
  RONALD REAGAN WHEN HE SAID THAT IF WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE DID, WE
• 49:38
  WON'T KNOW WHO WE ARE. SO IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE DON'T KNOW
• 49:40
  OUR HISTORY, IF WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED IN OUR HISTORY AND
• 49:42
  WHAT PRODUCED THIS GREAT, INCREDIBLE AMERICAN SOCIETY,
• 49:46
  THEN WE'RE GOING TO LOSE THE GREATNESS OF AMERICA. IN FACT,
• 49:48
  THE WAY HE SAID IT WAS, I'M WARNING OF AN ERADICATION OF THE
• 49:51
  AMERICAN MEMORY THAT WILL LEAD TO AN EROSION OF THE AMERICAN
• 49:54
  SPIRIT. SO IF YOU LOSE YOUR MEMORY, IF YOU LOSE WHO WE— WHAT
• 49:57
  WE DID IN THE PAST, THE STORIES OF THEM. AND I MEAN THE GOOD,
• 49:59
  THE BAD, AND THE UGLY. I'M NOT SAYING WE SHY AWAY FROM OR
• 50:02
  SUGARCOAT IT. YOU TELL THE WHOLE STORY SO WE CAN LEARN FROM THE
• 50:04
  WHOLE THING. BUT IF WE KNOW THOSE STORIES, THEN WE'LL
• 50:07
  CONTINUE OUR PATRIOTISM, WE'LL KEEP OUR CIVIC DUTY, WE'LL BE
• 50:10
  INVOLVED. WE WON'T HAVE THIS ABYSMAL VOTING PERCENTAGE AND
• 50:13
  ALL THAT IF WE REMEMBER WHAT WE DID. BUT IF WE FORGET WHAT WE
• 50:17
  DID, THEN WE GET SOFT. WE KIND OF GET SPOILED. WE'VE HAD THE
• 50:20
  BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY AND SOMEBODY ELSE PAID THE PRICE, SO
• 50:23
  WE HAVEN'T REALLY PAID ATTENTION TO IT. WE'VE ENJOYED GETTING TO
• 50:27
  LIVE IN FREEDOM AND MAKE DECISIONS AND ALL THAT, BUT WE
• 50:30
  HAVEN'T REALLY DONE THE HARD WORK TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S
• 50:33
  PRESERVED FOR THE NEXT GENERATION. SO IT'S ESSENTIALLY
• 50:35
  THAT OLD MEME ABOUT TOUGH TIMES MAKING TOUGH MEN, TOUGH MEN MAKE
• 50:38
  GOOD TIMES, GOOD TIMES MAKE SOFT MEN, SOFT MEN LEAD YOU BACK INTO
• 50:41
  TOUGH TIMES. WE'RE IN THAT GOOD TIMES FOR THE LAST, YOU KNOW,
• 50:44
  REALLY 100 YEARS AT LEAST, AND WE'VE GOTTEN SOFT. WE'VE GOTTEN
• 50:48
  VERY SOFT, AND THE CHURCH HAS GOTTEN SOFT, AND HASN'T DONE ITS
• 50:50
  JOB, HASN'T ENGAGED, HASN'T PARTICIPATED. AND AS A RESULT,
• 50:54
  NOW WE'VE STARTED HEADING BACK INTO TOUGH TIMES. HOW DO YOU
• 50:57
  STOP THAT? HOW DO YOU REVERSE THAT AND GET BACK TO THE GOOD
• 50:59
  TIMES? EXACTLY WHAT REAGAN SAID. CIVIC RITUAL AND MORE EMPHASIS
• 51:03
  ON HISTORY. SO IF WE WILL DO THESE THINGS, WHAT WE'RE DOING
• 51:05
  TONIGHT, I MEAN, THE FACT THAT ESPECIALLY FOR THESE OTHER
• 51:08
  PASTORS THAT CAME AND JOINED WITH HANK AND BRENDA AND AS A
• 51:12
  COMMUNITY AND YOU WERE WILLING TO COME HERE AND PARTICIPATE,
• 51:14
  THAT IS SUCH A GOOD SIGN FOR REVIVAL IN OUR COUNTRY. SUCH A
• 51:17
  GOOD SIGN THAT YOU'RE ALREADY SPEAKING UP AT YOUR CHURCHES AND
• 51:23
  ENCOURAGING VOTING AND EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE BALLOT
• 51:26
  INITIATIVES AND ALL THAT. SUCH A GOOD SIGN FOR WHERE WE ARE.
• 51:28
  YOU'RE DOING CIVIC RITUAL, YOU'RE TEACHING HISTORY, AND
• 51:30
  THAT'S HOW WE GET BACK TO SAVING THE COUNTRY. I NEED TO ADDRESS
• 51:34
  THE NAYSAYERS OUT THERE THAT SAY, YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD JUST
• 51:37
  BE, QUOTE UNQUOTE, PREACHING THE GOSPEL. YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO
• 51:39
  PUT POLITICS IN THE PULPIT. WELL, FIRST OF ALL, WHAT IS THE
• 51:43
  GOSPEL? NOT WHAT DOES RICK SAY IT IS, BUT WHAT DID JESUS SAY IT
• 51:47
  IS? WHAT IS THE GREAT COMMISSION? GO AND MAKE OF ALL,
• 51:52
  TEACHING THEM TO OBEY ONLY THOSE THINGS THAT AREN'T POLITICALLY
• 51:55
  CONTROVERSIAL. I'M WATCHING OUT FOR THE LIGHTNING RIGHT NOW
• 52:00
  BECAUSE I JUST ADDED TO THE WORD OF GOD OR TOOK AWAY FROM THE
• 52:03
  WORD OF GOD. NO, TEACHING THEM TO OBEY EVERYTHING I COMMANDED
• 52:06
  YOU. AND HE HAD ALL KINDS OF COMMANDS ABOUT HOW TO TREAT YOUR
• 52:09
  NEIGHBOR AND ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS. TAXES. HE HAD PARABLES
• 52:13
  ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF MEDDLING, WHICH IS
• 52:16
  THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL, IS COMPLETELY
• 52:19
  ANTI-BIBLICAL. HE HAS AN ENTIRE PARABLE ABOUT HOW IT'S BETWEEN
• 52:22
  YOU AND ME, EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE. IT'S NOT UP TO
• 52:24
  GOVERNMENT OR THE OTHER EMPLOYEES HOW MUCH I PAY YOU OR
• 52:27
  HOW MUCH YOU'RE WILLING TO WORK FOR OR I'M WILLING TO WORK FOR.
• 52:29
  JESUS SPOKE TO ALL THESE THINGS THAT DO IMPACT WHAT OUR CULTURE
• 52:33
  LOOKS LIKE, BUT WE BOUGHT THIS WHOLE IDEA OF JUST PREACH THE
• 52:35
  GOSPEL. WELL, THE GOSPEL IS TO MAKE DISCIPLES THAT UNDERSTAND
• 52:38
  HOW TO LIVE OUT EVERYTHING HE COMMANDED AT WORK, AT CHURCH, IN
• 52:42
  GOVERNMENT, ALL THOSE THINGS. NOBODY HERE, ALL THESE PASTORS
• 52:45
  THAT ARE HERE, I BET YOU'VE NEVER HAD ANYBODY IN YOUR CHURCH
• 52:47
  LEAVE THE SERVICE ON SUNDAY DRIVING HOME GOING, WHAT A GREAT
• 52:50
  MESSAGE ON HOW TO BE A GOOD HUSBAND, GOOD FATHER, GOOD
• 52:52
  MOTHER, GOOD WIFE. I WISH WE COULD USE IT AT HOME, BUT YOU
• 52:55
  KNOW, SEPARATION OF HOME AND CHURCH. NO, DOESN'T HAPPEN,
• 53:01
  RIGHT? I HOPE WE HAVEN'T GOT THAT BAD. YOU DON'T LEAVE GOING,
• 53:05
  GREAT SERMON ON HOW TO HAVE A GOOD EMPLOYEE, BE A GOOD
• 53:08
  EMPLOYEE AND HAVE GOOD WORK ETHIC OR CREATE A GREAT WORK
• 53:11
  ENVIRONMENT IF YOU'RE THE ENTREPRENEUR THAT STARTED THE
• 53:13
  COMPANY OR WHATEVER. WISH WE COULD USE THAT MONDAY AT WORK,
• 53:16
  BUT SEPARATION OF WORK AND CHURCH. WHY HAVE WE BOUGHT THIS
• 53:19
  LIE THAT SAYS, MAN, BOY, HANK AND BRENDA WERE TALKING ABOUT
• 53:23
  BEING GOOD STEWARDS OF MY VOTE AND KNOWING THE CONSTITUTION
• 53:27
  AND THE BIBLE AND HOW TO BE A GOOD CITIZEN AND ALL THAT. BUT I
• 53:29
  CAN'T DO THAT TUESDAY BECAUSE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.
• 53:32
  WE BOUGHT A LIE. IT DOES NOT MEAN PEOPLE OF FAITH DON'T GET
• 53:37
  INVOLVED IN THE STATE. YOU JUST STAY OVER HERE IN YOUR LITTLE
• 53:39
  BOX AT CHURCH. IT MEANS THE STATE CANNOT COME INTO THE
• 53:42
  CHURCH AND TELL YOU HOW TO LIVE OUT YOUR FAITH. WE'VE TOTALLY
• 53:48
  TURNED IT ON ITS HEAD. SO GOT 11 MINUTES. ALL RIGHT. I'VE BEEN
• 53:54
  GOING REALLY SLOW UP UNTIL NOW. SO WE'RE GOING TO RATCHET IT UP.
• 53:59
  DAVID BARTON AND I BOTH GET ACCUSED OF TALKING 90 WORDS A
• 54:02
  MINUTE WITH GUSTS UP TO 350. AND I THINK I STARTED AT 350. WE'RE
• 54:06
  ABOUT TO GUST ON UP TO 700. OKAY. SO SERIOUSLY, THERE'S A
• 54:10
  COUPLE OF GUYS THAT SAID THIS WAY BETTER THAN I EVER COULD.
• 54:13
  CHARLES FINNEY, HE WAS SECOND GREAT AWAKENING, REALLY WELL
• 54:16
  KNOWN, BIG PART OF HOW ALL THAT HAPPENED. HE EVEN STARRED IN A
• 54:19
  MOVIE, STAYING ALIVE. IF YOU EVER SAW THAT. I NEVER SAID IT
• 54:28
  THAT WAY, BUT THAT'S ACTUALLY FUN. THAT'S PRETTY FUNNY. OKAY,
• 54:32
  IT'S NOT JOHN TRAVOLTA. SO CHARLES FINNEY SAID IT THIS WAY.
• 54:34
  HE SAID THE CHURCH MUST TAKE RIGHT GROUND IN REGARD TO
• 54:38
  POLITICS. POLITICS ARE PART OF A RELIGION IN A COUNTRY SUCH AS
• 54:45
  THIS. WE'LL COME BACK TO THAT. AND CHRISTIANS MUST DO THEIR
• 54:48
  DUTY TO THEIR COUNTRY AS A PART OF THEIR DUTY TO GOD. GOD WILL
• 54:50
  BLESS OR CURSE THIS NATION ACCORDING TO THE COURSE
• 54:53
  CHRISTIANS TAKE IN POLITICS. SO LET'S BACK UP AND BREAK THAT
• 54:57
  DOWN. THE CHURCH TAKING GROUND IN POLITICS. WHY? BECAUSE
• 55:01
  POLITICS, WHEN YOU LIVE IN A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC,
• 55:04
  POLITICS IS JUST PART OF YOUR LIFE. IT'S JUST PART OF A
• 55:07
  RELIGION, NO DIFFERENT THAN PREACHING THE GOSPEL ON HOW TO
• 55:11
  CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT AT WORK OR HOW TO HAVE GOOD WORK ETHIC OR
• 55:14
  HOW TO BE A GOOD HUSBAND OR FATHER AND MOTHER, OR HOW TO BE,
• 55:17
  YOU KNOW, A GOOD STEWARD, WHATEVER IT IS. EVERYTHING IN
• 55:19
  LIFE THE BIBLE SPEAKS TO. AND IN AMERICA, YOU DON'T RENDER UNTO
• 55:24
  CAESAR WHAT IS CAESAR'S AND UNTO GOD WHAT IS GOD'S, MEANING WE
• 55:27
  LIVE UNDER A CAESAR THAT'S A DICTATOR. IN AMERICA, IT'S
• 55:29
  DIFFERENT. IN AMERICA, WHO IS CAESAR? YOU ARE. I AM. SO IF
• 55:35
  YOU'RE GOING TO DO YOUR DUTY, IF POLITICS IS PART OF YOUR
• 55:38
  RELIGION BECAUSE YOU LIVE IN A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC, YOU GOT
• 55:40
  TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO CAESAR WELL. YOU'RE CAESAR. SO HOW DO
• 55:44
  YOU DO CAESAR? WELL, BECAUSE WE THE PEOPLE ARE CAESAR, RIGHT?
• 55:47
  THAT'S HOW THIS WORKS. OUR GOVERNMENT, BECAUSE THE WAY THE
• 55:49
  DECLARATION LAYS IT OUT, WE SAY THAT TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS,
• 55:53
  GOVERNMENTS ARE INSTITUTED AMONG MEN, DERIVING THEIR JUST POWERS
• 55:55
  FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED. SO THE WHOLE PURPOSE
• 55:57
  OF GOVERNMENT IS LAID OUT RIGHT THERE IN THE DECLARATION TO
• 56:00
  SECURE THESE RIGHTS. AND THE ONLY POWER GOVERNMENT GETS IS
• 56:03
  FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED. SO WE THE PEOPLE ARE
• 56:06
  CONSTANTLY SORT OF INFLUENCING WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT LOOKS LIKE.
• 56:10
  IN FACT, THE NEXT LINE IN THE DECLARATION WE DON'T REPEAT VERY
• 56:13
  OFTEN TODAY. JEFFERSON SAID THAT WHEN ANY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
• 56:16
  BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE OF THESE ENDS, WHAT ENDS? EARLIER HE HAD
• 56:20
  SAID WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS, SO DESTRUCTIVE OF TRUTH, THAT ALL
• 56:23
  MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL, THAT THEY'RE ENDOWED BY THEIR
• 56:25
  CONGRESS, THAT THEY'RE ENDOWED BY THEIR— THIS IS A GREAT CROWD,
• 56:30
  MAN, YOU TAUGHT THEM WELL— THAT WE'RE ENDOWED BY OUR CREATOR
• 56:33
  WITH CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, THAT AMONG THESE ARE LIFE, SO IF
• 56:36
  GOVERNMENT BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE OF LIFE, LIBERTY, THE PURSUIT OF
• 56:40
  HAPPINESS, GOVERNMENT STARTS CONTROLLING YOUR LAND, TELLING
• 56:42
  YOU WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR LAND OR WITH YOUR BUSINESS. SO
• 56:45
  HOW ABOUT EVEN GIVING OR REFUSING CONSENT OF THE
• 56:47
  GOVERNMENT? IF WE'RE MANIPULATING ELECTIONS OR MAKING
• 56:50
  IT DIFFICULT TO KNOW IF THE ELECTIONS ARE SECURE, ALL OF
• 56:53
  THAT IS GOVERNMENT AT SOME LEVEL DESTROYING THE VERY THINGS THEY
• 56:57
  JUST LAID OUT IN THE DECLARATION. SO WHAT DOES HE SAY
• 56:59
  TO DO? THAT WHEN ANY FORM OF GOVERNMENT, LOCAL, COUNTY,
• 57:01
  STATE, FEDERAL, THEY CAN ALL DO THIS. THAT WHEN ANY FORM OF
• 57:04
  GOVERNMENT BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE OF THESE ENDS, IT IS THE RIGHT
• 57:07
  OF THE PEOPLE TO ALTER OR ABOLISH IT. NOW, THAT DOES NOT
• 57:11
  MEAN— SOMEBODY OUT THERE IS GOING TO TAKE ME OUT OF CONTEXT—
• 57:14
  RICK AND HANK, WE'RE CALLING FOR AN ABOLISHMENT OF ALL
• 57:16
  GOVERNMENT. NOT AT ALL. WE'RE SAYING IN A CONSTITUTIONAL
• 57:20
  REPUBLIC, YOU GET TO ALTER OR ABOLISH PIECES OF GOVERNMENT AS
• 57:24
  WE GO. THAT'S WHAT THE WHOLE THING'S ABOUT. THAT'S WHAT
• 57:26
  VOTING IS ABOUT. AS A LEGISLATOR, EVERY TIME I FILED A
• 57:29
  BILL OR VOTED FOR A BILL, WE WERE ALTERING WHAT OUR
• 57:33
  GOVERNMENT LOOKED LIKE. AND SOMETIMES WE WERE ABOLISHING
• 57:36
  PARTS OF OUR GOVERNMENT. SO IF YOU HAD A DEPARTMENT THAT WAS NO
• 57:38
  LONGER NEEDED, OR MAYBE AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL, A DEPARTMENT THAT
• 57:41
  NEVER SHOULD HAVE EXISTED IN THE FIRST PLACE, LIKE THE FEDERAL
• 57:42
  DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, RIGHT? ABOLISH THE FEDERAL DEPARTMENT
• 57:47
  OF EDUCATION. SO THAT'S ALL JEFFERSON— THEY SET IT UP SO
• 57:51
  THAT WE COULD DO THAT PEACEABLY. WE DON'T HAVE TO GRAB THE
• 57:53
  PITCHFORKS. WE DON'T HAVE TO TAKE UP ARMS AGAINST OUR
• 57:55
  GOVERNMENT OR ANY OF THAT. WE DON'T NEED BULLETS FOR A
• 57:57
  REVOLUTION, WE NEED BALLOTS. WE NEED TO BE VOTING AS THE CHURCH
• 58:02
  AND WE CAN ALTER OR ABOLISH. SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO.
• 58:06
  THAT'S WHAT THE DECLARATION TELLS US TO DO. AND CHARLES
• 58:08
  FINNEY LAID IT OUT. THE NATION WILL BE BLESSED OR CURSED
• 58:12
  DEPENDING UPON WHAT CHRISTIANS DO. IT'S OUR DUTY TO DO THIS.
• 58:16
  CAN I JUST TELL YOU, THERE IS NO SECULAR OR SPIRITUAL SPLIT IN
• 58:21
  AMERICA. PSALMS 24:1 SAYS, THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S AND THE
• 58:24
  FULLNESS OF IT. AND THE FULLNESS THEREOF. NOW SINCE BOB TOLD YOU
• 58:27
  I'M FROM TEXAS, I'M JUST GONNA GIVE YOU TEXAS LANGUAGE ON WHAT
• 58:30
  THAT SCRIPTURE MEANS. IT MEANS IT'S ALL HIS. EVERY BIT OF IT.
• 58:36
  SO THAT MEANS THERE'S NOTHING OFF LIMITS. THERE'S NO
• 58:39
  SECULAR-SPIRITUAL SPLIT. YOU'RE NOT MORE HOLY BECAUSE OF A
• 58:42
  PARTICULAR PROFESSION YOU GO INTO. YOU ARE A MINISTER OF THE
• 58:46
  GOSPEL IF YOU'RE A MECHANIC, IF YOU'RE A PASTOR, IF YOU'RE A
• 58:48
  TEACHER, IF YOU'RE RUNNING FOR OFFICE, WHEREVER YOU ARE, YOU
• 58:52
  ARE SUPPOSED TO TAKE GOD'S WORD THERE. SO WE DON'T SPLIT THIS
• 58:55
  STUFF UP AND SAY SOME THINGS ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS. I'LL GIVE
• 58:58
  YOU AN EXAMPLE AND THEN I'LL TRY TO WRAP THIS THING UP. SO THESE
• 59:01
  GUYS, THIS IS A PASTOR NAMED JOHN PETER GABRIEL MUHLENBERG.
• 59:05
  NOW JOHN PETER GABRIEL MUHLENBERG WAS A PASTOR OF TWO
• 59:08
  CHURCHES IN VIRGINIA DURING THE REVOLUTION. AND HE ACTUALLY GOES
• 59:12
  FROM THE LEGISLATURE IN VIRGINIA, HE RIDES MOST OF THE
• 59:16
  NIGHT, GETS THERE IN TIME TO PREACH ON SUNDAY MORNING,
• 59:18
  PREACHES OUT OF ECCLESIASTES, TALKS ABOUT THERE'S A SEASON FOR
• 59:20
  THIS, A SEASON FOR THAT. THIS IS JANUARY '75 OR '76. JANUARY '76,
• 59:25
  I BELIEVE IT WAS. AND SO HE GETS UP AND HE'S PREACHING AND HE
• 59:27
  GETS TO THAT VERSE, "THERE'S A TIME OF PEACE AND THERE'S A TIME
• 59:30
  OF WAR." I THINK IT'S VERSE 8. AND HE CLOSES HIS BIBLE, LOOKS
• 59:34
  OUT AT HIS CHURCH, TAKES OFF HIS CLERICAL ROBE. THAT'S WHAT THIS
• 59:36
  PAINTING IS DEPICTING. TAKES OFF HIS CLERICAL ROBE AND UNDERNEATH
• 59:39
  HIS CLERICAL ROBE, HE'S IN THE FULL DRESS MILITARY UNIFORM OF
• 59:41
  AN OFFICER IN THE REVOLUTIONARY ARMY. AND HE SAYS TO HIS
• 59:44
  CONGREGATION, IT'S NO LONGER A TIME OF TIME OF PEACE HERE. IT'S
• 59:46
  A TIME OF WAR. ORDERS THE MEN OUTSIDE TO BEAT THE DRUMS, CALLS
• 59:50
  HIS MEN TO ARMS. 300 MEN FROM HIS TWO CHURCHES JOIN UP. THEY
• 59:52
  BECOME THE 8TH VIRGINIA REGIMENT. HE GOES ON TO BECOME A
• 59:55
  MAJOR GENERAL, ONE OF ONLY 13 GUYS TO DO THAT. FIGHTS
• 59:57
  THROUGHOUT THE REVOLUTION. HE HAS A BROTHER WHO'S ALSO A
• 1:00:01
  PASTOR, AND FREDERICK AUGUSTUS IS UP IN NEW YORK. AND FREDERICK
• 1:00:04
  AUGUSTUS WRITES HIM AND SAYS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS.
• 1:00:07
  YOU'RE JUST SUPPOSED TO PREACH THE GOSPEL. HE SAYS, YOU WOULD
• 1:00:10
  HAVE ACTED FOR THE BEST IF YOU'D KEPT OUT OF THIS BUSINESS FROM
• 1:00:13
  THE BEGINNING. I NOW GIVE YOU MY THOUGHTS IN BRIEF. I THINK YOU
• 1:00:15
  WERE WRONG. JOHN PETER WRITES HIM BACK AND SAYS, YES, I'M A
• 1:00:17
  CITIZEN OF HEAVEN, BUT I'M ALSO A CITIZEN OF EARTH, AND MY
• 1:00:20
  LIBERTY IS AS DEAR TO ME AS IT IS TO ANY— AS THE POOREST
• 1:00:22
  LAYMAN. MY— YEAH, AS TO ANY MAN. SHALL I THEN SIT STILL? HEAVEN
• 1:00:26
  FORBID IT. I'M CONVINCED IT'S MY DUTY SO TO DO, AND DUTY I OWE TO
• 1:00:29
  GOD AND COUNTRY. AND HE GOES ON AND FIGHTS. WELL, THEY GO BACK
• 1:00:33
  AND FORTH. THEY GOT THIS GREAT ARGUMENT GOING BETWEEN THE TWO
• 1:00:35
  OF THEM. FREDERICK AUGUSTUS FINALLY WRITES HIM AND HE SAYS,
• 1:00:37
  YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM? IT'S YOU VIRGINIANS. YEAH. YOU BUNCH OF
• 1:00:41
  RABBLE-ROUSERS. YOU GOT PATRICK HENRY DOWN THERE AND JEFFERSON,
• 1:00:44
  ALL THESE GUYS CAUSING PROBLEMS. HE SAID, UP HERE IN NEW YORK
• 1:00:46
  WHERE I PASTOR, WE DON'T HAVE ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS. 2 MONTHS
• 1:00:49
  LATER, THE BRITISH COME INTO HIS HOMETOWN, KICK HIM OUT OF HIS
• 1:00:52
  CHURCH, DESECRATE HIS CHURCH, AND FREDERICK AUGUSTUS GOES,
• 1:00:55
  HMM, MAYBE BABY BROTHER WAS ON TO SOMETHING. THAT MAN YOU'RE
• 1:00:59
  LOOKING AT RIGHT THERE WAS A PASTOR THAT SAID DON'T GET
• 1:01:01
  INVOLVED. AND THEN WHEN IT AFFECTED HIS BACKYARD, HE GOT SO
• 1:01:05
  INVOLVED THAT IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE BILL OF RIGHTS, THERE ARE
• 1:01:07
  TWO SIGNATURES ON THE BILL OF RIGHTS. JOHN ADAMS WAS VICE
• 1:01:10
  PRESIDENT. I MEAN, YEAH, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
• 1:01:12
  SO HE'S PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE. FREDERICK AUGUSTUS MUHLENBERG
• 1:01:15
  WAS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE IN THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS THAT GAVE
• 1:01:19
  US THE BILL OF RIGHTS. FREEDOM OF RELIGION IN THE FIRST
• 1:01:22
  AMENDMENT FROM A PASTOR. NOW, THAT'S NOT THEM GIVING YOU
• 1:01:26
  FREEDOM OF RELIGION. GOD GAVE YOU FREEDOM OF RELIGION. THAT'S
• 1:01:29
  THEM GIVING YOU THE FIRST AMENDMENT THAT MAKES IT CLEAR
• 1:01:31
  THAT GOVERNMENT'S JOB IS TO PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM OF
• 1:01:33
  RELIGION. BY THE WAY, JOHN PETER WAS ALSO IN THAT CONGRESS. THESE
• 1:01:35
  TWO BROTHERS, PASTORS IN THE FIRST CONGRESS, GIVING US THE
• 1:01:38
  BILL OF RIGHTS. SOMEBODY MAKE A MOVIE OUT OF THOSE GUYS, MAN.
• 1:01:41
  I'M TELLING YOU, INCREDIBLE. OKAY, SO LET ME GO BACK TO
• 1:01:44
  FINNEY. FINNEY WENT ON TO SAY, AND I'M NOT PICKING ON THE
• 1:01:48
  PASTORS THAT ARE HERE TONIGHT BECAUSE YOU'RE HERE, YOU ALREADY
• 1:01:51
  KNOW THIS, BUT A LOT OF OUR PASTORS AND CHRISTIANS, WE PICK
• 1:01:54
  ON THE PASTORS MAYBE A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH BECAUSE THIS IS ALL
• 1:01:56
  OF US. WE NEED TO RECOGNIZE THIS. FINNEY SAID, BRETHREN, OUR
• 1:01:59
  PREACHING WILL BEAR ITS LEGITIMATE FRUITS. IF IMMORALITY
• 1:02:02
  PREVAILS IN THE LAND, THE FAULT IS OURS. IN A GREAT DEGREE. IF
• 1:02:06
  THERE'S A DECAY OF CONSCIENCE, THE PULPIT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
• 1:02:09
  IT. IF THE PUBLIC PRESS LACKS MORAL DISCRIMINATION, THE PULPIT
• 1:02:12
  IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. IF THE CHURCH IS DEGENERATE AND
• 1:02:15
  WORLDLY, THE PULPIT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. IF THE WORLD
• 1:02:18
  LOSES ITS INTEREST IN RELIGION, THE PULPIT'S RESPONSIBLE FOR IT.
• 1:02:21
  IF SATAN RULES IN OUR HALLS OF LEGISLATION, THE PULPIT'S
• 1:02:23
  RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. IF OUR POLITICS BECOME SO CORRUPT THAT
• 1:02:26
  THE VERY FOUNDATIONS OF OUR GOVERNMENT ARE READY TO FALL
• 1:02:30
  AWAY, THE PULPIT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. LET US NOT FORGET THIS
• 1:02:33
  FACT, MY DEAR BRETHREN, BUT LET US LAY IT TO HEART AND BE
• 1:02:36
  THOROUGHLY AWAKE IN OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RESPECT AND
• 1:02:40
  RESPECT TO THE MORALS OF THIS NATION. IN OTHER WORDS, THE
• 1:02:43
  CHURCH MUST BE SALT AND LIGHT. WE MUST. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
• 1:02:49
  WHAT THE CULTURE LOOKS LIKE. I WOULD SUBMIT TO YOU THAT THE
• 1:02:53
  CHURCH HAS BEEN SUGARY AND DULL. WE'VE BEEN TOO SWEET. WE'VE BEEN
• 1:02:57
  SO WORRIED ABOUT BEING NICE. DON'T WANT TO OFFEND ANYBODY.
• 1:03:00
  DON'T WANT TO STEP ON ANYBODY'S TOES. LISTEN, IF I STEPPED ON
• 1:03:03
  YOUR TOES TONIGHT, I DO APOLOGIZE. MY INTENT WAS TO
• 1:03:05
  STOMP ON THEM. WE GOTTA STOP BEING SO WORRIED ABOUT
• 1:03:10
  OFFENDING. YOU KNOW THE GOSPEL IS OFFENSIVE. WE GOTTA STOP
• 1:03:15
  WORRYING ABOUT, "OH, WE GOTTA BE SO—" NO, WE NEED TO BE SALTY AND
• 1:03:18
  BRIGHT. NOT SUGARY AND DULL. SALT AND LIGHT IS WHAT WILL SAVE
• 1:03:22
  THIS COUNTRY. OUR FOUNDERS CERTAINLY UNDERSTOOD THAT.
• 1:03:24
  THAT'S WHY THE BIBLE PERMEATES EVERYTHING IN OUR CULTURE. AND
• 1:03:28
  SO HERE'S THE DEAL: 100 YEARS AGO, THIS GUY RIGHT HERE,
• 1:03:30
  PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES JAMES GARFIELD, SPOKE TO US 100
• 1:03:33
  YEARS LATER, WHAT HE CALLED THE NEXT CENTENNIAL. HE SAID, NOW
• 1:03:37
  MORE THAN EVER, THE PEOPLE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHARACTER OF
• 1:03:40
  THEIR CONGRESS. THIS VOTE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO CAST— I KNOW
• 1:03:42
  NOBODY IN HERE IS GOING TO STAY HOME OR WHINE— YOU'RE GOING TO
• 1:03:45
  CAST A VOTE. YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHARACTER OF YOUR
• 1:03:48
  CONGRESS. IF THAT BODY BE IGNORANT, RECKLESS, AND CORRUPT,
• 1:03:52
  A COUPLE OF CONGRESSMEN I'D LOVE TO SHOW A PICTURE OF, BUT I'M
• 1:03:54
  NOT GOING TO DO IT. IF IT BE INTELLIGENT, BRAVE, AND PURE,
• 1:03:58
  IT'S BECAUSE THE PEOPLE DEMAND THESE HIGH QUALITIES TO
• 1:04:00
  REPRESENT THEM IN THE NATIONAL LEGISLATURE. IF THE NEXT
• 1:04:04
  CENTENNIAL DOES NOT FIND US A GREAT NATION— HE ALREADY HAD A
• 1:04:06
  RED HAT THAT SAID MAKE AMERICA GREATER— HE SAID IF THE NEXT
• 1:04:08
  CENTENNIAL DOES NOT FIND US A GREAT NATION, IT WILL BE BECAUSE
• 1:04:11
  THE PEOPLE WHO REPRESENT THE ENTERPRISE, CULTURE, AND
• 1:04:13
  MORALITY OF THE NATION DO NOT AID IN CONTROLLING THE POLITICAL
• 1:04:15
  FORCES. FOLKS, HE'S SAYING EXACTLY WHAT I'M SAYING TONIGHT.
• 1:04:18
  IT IS UP TO US TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR CONGRESS, OUR STATE
• 1:04:22
  LEGISLATURE, OUR SCHOOL BOARD, ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT ENTITIES
• 1:04:25
  REFLECT A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW AND HAVE BIBLICAL VALUES. WE GET TO
• 1:04:29
  CHOOSE OUR LEADERS. MOST PEOPLE WHO EVER LIVED ON THE PLANET
• 1:04:32
  DIDN'T GET TO DO THAT. WE GET TO CHOOSE WHAT OUR COUNTRY IS GOING
• 1:04:35
  TO LOOK LIKE, WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO LOOK
• 1:04:36
  LIKE, WHAT OUR COMMUNITIES ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE. BUT IT'S
• 1:04:38
  GOING TO TAKE EFFORT. IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO JUST SIT BACK AND TALK
• 1:04:43
  ABOUT IT OR ENCOURAGE OTHER PEOPLE TO DO IT OR HOPE SOMEBODY
• 1:04:45
  ELSE RUNS FOR OFFICE. WE HAVE TO GIVE OF OUR LIVES, OUR FORTUNES,
• 1:04:48
  AND OUR SACRED HONOR. OUR LIVES IS OUR TIME STUDYING THE
• 1:04:51
  CONSTITUTION, STUDYING THE WORD OF GOD, STUDYING WHAT MADE OUR
• 1:04:54
  NATION GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND THEN ACTING ON IT, MAKING
• 1:04:56
  SURE THAT WE GO OUT AND VOTE. NOW, I'M GOING TO VERY QUICKLY
• 1:04:59
  TRY TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE REASONS CHRISTIANS DON'T VOTE.
• 1:05:03
  NUMBER ONE REASON I ALWAYS HEAR IS, I WILL NOT VOTE FOR THE
• 1:05:06
  LESSER OF TWO EVILS. JUST WON'T DO IT. TO THAT PERSON I SAY,
• 1:05:12
  UNLESS JESUS CHRIST IS ON THE BALLOT, YOU WILL VOTE FOR THE
• 1:05:17
  LESSER OF TWO EVILS. THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NOT ONE. WE
• 1:05:21
  ARE ALL FLAWED JARS OF CLAY. I HAVE YET TO FIND A CANDIDATE I
• 1:05:24
  AGREE WITH 100%. I DON'T EVEN AGREE WITH MYSELF 100% OF THE
• 1:05:27
  TIME. HOW AM I GOING TO FIND A CANDIDATE? THERE IS NO PERFECT
• 1:05:29
  CANDIDATE. OKAY, YOU ARE ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE TO GO IN AND SAY,
• 1:05:33
  WELL, I DON'T LIKE THIS THING THAT THAT PERSON DID BECAUSE
• 1:05:35
  THEY'RE NOT PERFECT. AND THERE MAY BE A LOT OF THINGS YOU DON'T
• 1:05:38
  LIKE ABOUT THIS PERSON OVER HERE, BUT IT'S NOT THAT
• 1:05:40
  COMPLICATED, FOLKS. IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO VOTE BECAUSE MAYBE
• 1:05:45
  THE CANDIDATE THAT EVERYBODY ELSE IN CHURCH IS VOTING FOR,
• 1:05:47
  SAY THEY'RE 80% BIBLICAL AND YOU'RE NOT VOTING FOR THEM
• 1:05:50
  BECAUSE YOU'RE MAD ABOUT THE OTHER 20%, BUT THE OPPONENT IS
• 1:05:53
  LIKE 10% BIBLICAL. BY NOT VOTING, YOU ARE HELPING THE
• 1:05:57
  PERSON THAT IS ONLY 10% BIBLICAL DEFEAT THE ONE THAT WAS 80%
• 1:06:00
  BIBLICAL. DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYBODY? I THINK WHAT
• 1:06:05
  BRENDA LAID OUT SHOULD BE HEARD BY EVERYONE IN THE CHURCH ACROSS
• 1:06:08
  AMERICA. I HAVE CHRISTIANS TELLING ME THAT THEY'RE NOT
• 1:06:11
  GOING TO GO VOTE IN 3 WEEKS OR IN EARLY VOTING THIS NEXT COUPLE
• 1:06:14
  OF WEEKS BECAUSE THEIR CANDIDATE DIDN'T WIN THE PRIMARY. DO YOU
• 1:06:17
  KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAD TO HOLD MY NOSE AND VOTE FOR JOHN
• 1:06:20
  CORNYN IN TEXAS, WHO I THINK WAS A TERRIBLE SENATOR FOR A
• 1:06:25
  REPUBLICAN, BUT HE WAS WAY BETTER THAN ANY DEMOCRAT? I
• 1:06:27
  TRIED TO BEAT HIM IN THE PRIMARY FOR 20 YEARS. AND I LOST AND I
• 1:06:31
  LOST AND I LOST. AND SO I TURN AROUND AND VOTE FOR HIM IN
• 1:06:33
  NOVEMBER, EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T LIKE HIM, EVEN THOUGH LOTS OF
• 1:06:35
  REASONS. BUT I VOTED FOR HIM BECAUSE HE WAS BETTER THAN THE
• 1:06:38
  ALTERNATIVE. WE HAVE CORNYN VOTERS ALL OVER TEXAS RIGHT NOW
• 1:06:40
  SAYING, I'M NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR KEN PAXTON BECAUSE OF BLAH,
• 1:06:43
  BLAH, BLAH, WHATEVER EXCUSE. AND THEY'RE GOING TO VOTE FOR THIS
• 1:06:45
  TALE OF FRICO KID THAT LITERALLY IS FOR CHOPPING OFF THE GENITALS
• 1:06:50
  OF CHILDREN, MURDER OF A BABY UP UNTIL BIRTH, ALL OF THESE THINGS
• 1:06:54
  THAT ARE SO EVIL. AND YET WE HAVE CHRISTIANS THAT I'M JUST SO
• 1:06:57
  RIGHTEOUS. AND I'M SO FULL OF MYSELF, I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO
• 1:07:00
  VOTE FOR THIS ONE OVER HERE. SO I'M GONNA BE HELPING THE MURDER
• 1:07:03
  OF CHILDREN AND HELPING THE CHILDREN TRANSGENDER AGENDA.
• 1:07:07
  THAT IS FOOLISH, FOLKS. IT IS SPIRITUAL IMMATURITY. IT'S
• 1:07:11
  ABSOLUTELY NOT UNDERSTANDING THAT WE LIVE IN A FALLEN
• 1:07:14
  SOCIETY. THERE IS NO PERFECT CANDIDATE OR PERFECT GOVERNMENT.
• 1:07:16
  JAMES MADISON EVEN SAID OF OUR GOVERNMENT, HE SAID IT'S THE
• 1:07:19
  WORST FORM OF GOVERNMENT OTHER THAN EVERY OTHER ONE. SO IF YOU
• 1:07:25
  NEED TO REMEMBER THAT, JUST GO IN AND SAY, I'M GOING TO VOTE
• 1:07:27
  FOR THIS GUY OR THIS GAL. THEY'RE THE WORST CANDIDATE
• 1:07:31
  OTHER THAN EVERY OTHER ONE. AND THEN YOU GO VOTE FOR THEM.
• 1:07:34
  BECAUSE ALSO, MAN, I LOVE THAT SHEET THAT TERRI MADE. I DON'T
• 1:07:38
  SEE HER, BUT THAT SHEET SHOWING THE DIFFERENCE. I USED TO
• 1:07:41
  JOKINGLY SAY, NOT GOING TO TELL YOU WHO TO VOTE FOR. YOU CAN
• 1:07:44
  VOTE FOR THE REPUBLICANS OR THE COMMUNISTS. IT'S NOW. IT'S REAL.
• 1:07:50
  IT'S LIKE YOU EITHER VOTE FOR THE REPUBLICANS OR YOU ARE
• 1:07:52
  VOTING FOR THE COMMUNISTS. AND YOU EITHER VOTE FOR THE
• 1:07:55
  REPUBLICANS OR YOU STAY HOME, YOU'RE HELPING THE COMMUNISTS.
• 1:07:59
  SO ANYWAY, ALL THAT TO SAY, LESSER OF TWO EVILS, YOU'RE NOT
• 1:08:01
  GOING TO GET AWAY FROM THAT. SOME PEOPLE ARE BEING SO WHINY.
• 1:08:03
  OH, I'M OFFENDED BY SOMETHING THE WHATEVER CANDIDATE SAID. AND
• 1:08:06
  SO THEY'RE GOING TO HELP THE CRAZY ONES. IT JUST MAKES NO
• 1:08:08
  SENSE WHATSOEVER. OTHERS, AND I UNDERSTAND THIS ONE, A LOT OF
• 1:08:12
  CHRISTIANS DECIDE NOT TO VOTE BECAUSE THEY'VE BOUGHT INTO THE
• 1:08:14
  BLACK PILL KIND OF DEFEATIST ATTITUDE. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY
• 1:08:17
  DIFFERENCE. REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE THE SAME, WHICH IS
• 1:08:19
  BALONEY, BY THE WAY. THE DIFFERENCE— AND BELIEVE ME, I
• 1:08:22
  GOT REPUBLICANS I DON'T EVEN LIKE TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM AS
• 1:08:26
  THEM. OKAY. NOBODY PERFECT ON THAT SIDE. THE PARTY'S NOT
• 1:08:30
  PERFECT, ALL THAT. BUT WHEN YOU COMPARE IT TO THE ALTERNATIVE,
• 1:08:34
  THEY ARE INCREDIBLY DIFFERENT. AND SO DON'T BUY THESE DEFEATIST
• 1:08:38
  IDEAS THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO MATTER NO MATTER WHO GETS IN
• 1:08:40
  OFFICE, NO MATTER WHO THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE IS, NO
• 1:08:42
  MATTER WHO'S PRESIDENT. NOTHING EVER CHANGES. THAT IS SUCH A
• 1:08:44
  LIE. I'M TELLING YOU THE THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED. THAT'S WHAT
• 1:08:46
  I SHOULD HAVE DONE TONIGHT WAS JUST READ THE LIST OF, THERE'S
• 1:08:49
  ABOUT 250 THINGS THAT JUST THROUGH THE FAITH OFFICE AT THE
• 1:08:53
  WHITE HOUSE HAVE HAPPENED IN AMERICA AND AROUND THE WORLD,
• 1:08:56
  PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS THAT HAVE BEEN SAVED, ALL KINDS OF
• 1:08:58
  INCREDIBLE THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THE
• 1:09:00
  DIFFERENCE IN HAVING A REPUBLICAN SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE
• 1:09:03
  AND A REPUBLICAN MAJORITY LEADER AND A REPUBLICAN IN THE WHITE
• 1:09:05
  HOUSE. IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE. IT'S NOT PERFECT. WE
• 1:09:09
  DON'T GET EVERYTHING. IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE. SO DON'T BUY
• 1:09:11
  THAT LIE. DON'T BE A DEFEATIST. EVEN IF IT DIDN'T MAKE A
• 1:09:14
  DIFFERENCE, YOUR DUTY DOESN'T CHANGE. EVEN IF YOU THINK, WELL,
• 1:09:20
  HOWEVER I VOTE, THEY'RE GOING TO BE ABOUT THE SAME, OR IT'S ONLY
• 1:09:23
  GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT. SO WHAT? YOU DON'T
• 1:09:25
  HAVE A LACKADAISICAL JUST I GET TO CHOOSE TO VOTE OR NOT. NO,
• 1:09:29
  THIS IS A DUTY YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN THE PARABLE OF THE
• 1:09:33
  TALENTS. YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN A TALENT OF FREEDOM AND A VOTE. IF
• 1:09:36
  YOU WORK THAT TALENT, IF YOU MULTIPLY THAT TALENT, IF YOU USE
• 1:09:39
  THAT TALENT AND GO USE IT, I BELIEVE YOU'LL BE CALLED THE
• 1:09:41
  GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT. IF YOU BURY THAT TALENT, EITHER
• 1:09:46
  BECAUSE YOU'RE WHINING ABOUT WHO THE CANDIDATES ARE, OR YOU DON'T
• 1:09:49
  THINK IT'S GOING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, OR YOU'RE BEING LAZY
• 1:09:50
  OR WHATEVER, WHAT DOES THE MASTER SAY TO THAT? WICKED AND
• 1:09:54
  SLOTHFUL SERVANT. I DON'T WANT TO BE THE WICKED AND SLOTHFUL
• 1:09:57
  SERVANT. DO YOU? SO LET'S NOT TAKE THIS DEFEATIST ATTITUDE AND
• 1:10:01
  SAY, I'M NOT GOING TO VOTE BECAUSE OF WHATEVER. OKAY, LAST
• 1:10:03
  ONE. OH NO, TWO MORE. POLITICS IS DIRTY. I'M JUST NOT GOING TO—
• 1:10:06
  YOU KNOW, POLITICS. ROB MCCOY, WHEN WE FILMED BIBLICAL
• 1:10:10
  CITIZENSHIP, WE WERE SITTING IN HIS CHURCH AND I WAS ASKING HIM
• 1:10:12
  ABOUT ALL THIS STUFF AND HE SAID, YEAH, THEY ALWAYS SAY
• 1:10:14
  POLITICS IS DIRTY. HE SAID, THE CHURCH IS DIRTY. WHAT'S YOUR
• 1:10:16
  POINT? WE'RE HUMANS, RIGHT? I MEAN, WHAT DO YOU THINK? THERE'S
• 1:10:22
  NO— ANYWAY, SO DON'T BE SILLY LIKE THAT AND THINK, OH, IT'S
• 1:10:24
  JUST A DIRTY BUSINESS OVER THERE. THIS IS JUST LIFE. THIS
• 1:10:27
  IS THE JOY OF WORKING WITH PEOPLE, HUMAN BEINGS THIS SIDE
• 1:10:33
  OF HEAVEN. OKAY. AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS THE ONE WE'RE
• 1:10:36
  SOLVING TONIGHT. SOME CHRISTIANS JUST DON'T KNOW. THEY DON'T
• 1:10:39
  KNOW. THEY REALLY DON'T. THEY DIDN'T GET RAISED IN A FAMILY OR
• 1:10:43
  GO TO A CHURCH WHERE IT'S TALKED ABOUT. AND THEY'RE JUST— THEY'RE
• 1:10:46
  LITERALLY CHECKED OUT. THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THERE'S AN
• 1:10:48
  ELECTION COMING UP. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW CLOSE THINGS ARE
• 1:10:51
  IN WASHINGTON, D.C., OR THE IMPACT IT'S GOING TO HAVE ON
• 1:10:53
  THEIR LIFE. THAT'S WHERE YOU CAN IMMEDIATELY MAKE A DIFFERENCE
• 1:10:56
  TONIGHT. USING THE APP, SENDING IT TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY,
• 1:11:00
  TAKING THESE VOTER GUIDES. THIS MAKES SUCH A DIFFERENCE, FOLKS.
• 1:11:03
  NORMALLY, ABOUT HALF OF CHRISTIANS ARE REGISTERED TO
• 1:11:06
  VOTE, AND ABOUT HALF OF THOSE SHOW UP AND VOTE. CAN YOU
• 1:11:09
  IMAGINE? 25%. THIS IS LIKE GOING OUT ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD WITH 3
• 1:11:15
  PLAYERS AND TAKING ON THE OPPOSITION. NOW, IF YOU'RE THE
• 1:11:18
  COWBOYS PLAYING THE PACKERS, YOU COULD PROBABLY DO THAT AND BE
• 1:11:21
  OKAY, BUT I'M GOING TO GO TO THIS SIDE OF THE STAGE. I THINK
• 1:11:27
  I'M GOING TO AVOID MY BUDDY OVER HERE. SO SERIOUSLY, AND BY THE
• 1:11:34
  WAY, WHEN WE WHINE ABOUT WHO THE CANDIDATE IS ON THE BALLOT, YOU
• 1:11:38
  KNOW, IT'S KIND OF LIKE BEING— IF YOU'RE ONE OF THE LINEMEN AND
• 1:11:41
  YOU GET IN THE HUDDLE AND THE COACH IS SENDING A QUARTERBACK
• 1:11:43
  THAT YOU DON'T LIKE, SO YOU JUST DECIDE NOT TO EVEN BLOCK. YOU
• 1:11:49
  DECIDE TO JUST LAY DOWN ON THE FIELD AND LET YOUR TEAM LOSE
• 1:11:52
  BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T LIKE THE CALL THAT THE COACH MADE OR THE
• 1:11:55
  QUARTERBACK IS GOING IN. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE DOING WHEN YOU CHECK
• 1:11:58
  OUT OF THIS PROCESS BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE THE REPUBLICAN
• 1:12:00
  CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR OR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR OR WHATEVER
• 1:12:02
  THE RACE IS THAT YOU'RE MAD ABOUT. FOLKS, IT'S A TEAM SPORT.
• 1:12:06
  THAT'S JUST HOW POLITICS WORKS IN AMERICA. IT'S A TEAM SPORT.
• 1:12:09
  AND WHO THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE IS MATTERS BIG TIME. WE WILL GET
• 1:12:13
  NO VOTE ON A LIFE ISSUE OR ANY OF THE PRESIDENT'S AGENDA. THERE
• 1:12:17
  WON'T EVEN BE A VOTE. LET ALONE A CHANCE TO WIN THE VOTE, THEY
• 1:12:19
  WON'T BRING IT TO THE FLOOR. IT MATTERS WHO THE SPEAKER OF THE
• 1:12:22
  HOUSE IS. IT MATTERS WHO THOSE MAJORITIES ARE. SO LAST, LAST,
• 1:12:26
  LAST QUOTE. OH YEAH. AND YOU'RE— AND BY THE WAY, IF YOU THINK IT
• 1:12:28
  DOESN'T MATTER OR THAT YOUR VOTE WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE, I LOST
• 1:12:31
  MY FIRST RACE FOR THE LEGISLATURE WITH 30,000 VOTES
• 1:12:34
  CAST ON ELECTION NIGHT. I LOST BY 20 VOTES. THERE'S NOT A
• 1:12:39
  PERSON IN THIS ROOM THAT BETWEEN NOW AND ELECTION DAY IS
• 1:12:42
  INCAPABLE OF GOING OUT AND GETTING 20 MORE PEOPLE TO VOTE
• 1:12:45
  IN THIS ELECTION. EVERYBODY IN HERE COULD DO THAT. IF YOU SPENT
• 1:12:47
  JUST A LITTLE BIT OF TIME DOING THIS. 20 VOTES. IN FACT, THE GUY
• 1:12:50
  STANDING NEXT TO ME, AFTER WE TALLIED EVERYTHING, HE GOES,
• 1:12:52
  RICK, MAN, 20 VOTES. HE SAID, I COULD HAVE GOT YOU 20 MORE
• 1:12:55
  VOTES. I WANTED TO LAY HANDS ON HIM WITHOUT PRAYER AT THAT
• 1:12:59
  MOMENT. I'M TELLING YOU. NOW, FORTUNATELY, BACK THEN WE HAD
• 1:13:04
  PAPER BALLOTS, AND SO WE HAD A RECOUNT, AND WE PUT OUR HANDS ON
• 1:13:07
  EVERY SINGLE BALLOT. WE LOOKED AT EVERY BALLOT, ALL 30,000
• 1:13:10
  BALLOTS, COUNTED IT ALL AGAIN, AND I WON BY 36 VOTES. SO I'M
• 1:13:15
  JUST TELLING YOU, EVERY VOTE COUNTS. AND THAT WAS BACK IN
• 1:13:18
  1998, BY THE WAY. GEORGE BUSH WAS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS AT THE
• 1:13:21
  TIME WHEN HE FOUND OUT IT WAS THAT CLOSE AND I WON. HE SAID,
• 1:13:23
  HE SAID, GREEN, THAT WAS CLOSE. HE SAID, I'M OFFICIALLY DUBBING
• 1:13:26
  YOU LANDSLIDE GREEN. HE THOUGHT THAT WAS REALLY FUNNY IN 1998.
• 1:13:32
  2000, FLORIDA RETURNS COME IN, HE QUIT LAUGHING ABOUT RECOUNTS.
• 1:13:35
  I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, HE LEARNED HIS LESSON. CAN I JUST
• 1:13:39
  TELL YOU THAT MUSLIMS IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW ARE VOTING, DEPENDING
• 1:13:41
  ON THE POLL YOU LOOK AT, 93 TO 97%. 93 TO 97%. THEY'RE TALKING
• 1:13:48
  ABOUT IT IN THEIR MOSQUES AND THEY'RE TELLING EVERYBODY GO
• 1:13:50
  VOTE. THEY'RE DRAGGING EVERYBODY TO THE POLLS. CHRISTIANS ARE
• 1:13:53
  VOTING 25%. YOU WONDER WHY WE'RE LOSING. WE CAN TURN THAT AROUND
• 1:13:56
  IF WE SHOW UP. EVERY VOTE COUNTS. THERE'S NO PERFECT
• 1:14:00
  CANDIDATE. LAST QUOTE. I KNOW I WENT OVER. I'M GOING TO TURN IT
• 1:14:03
  OVER TO THESE GUYS. THIS IS NOAH WEBSTER. HE SAID, WHEN YOU
• 1:14:07
  BECOME ENTITLED TO EXERCISE THE RIGHT OF VOTING FOR PUBLIC
• 1:14:09
  OFFICERS, EVERYBODY IN THIS ROOM, I DON'T THINK I SEE
• 1:14:11
  ANYBODY UNDER 18. THERE MIGHT BE A FEW IN HERE. ALMOST EVERYBODY.
• 1:14:13
  THERE'S A COUPLE OF THEM OVER HERE. ALMOST EVERYBODY IN HERE,
• 1:14:15
  YOU ALREADY FIT THIS. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO VOTE, TO CHOOSE WHO
• 1:14:19
  YOUR PUBLIC OFFICERS ARE GOING TO BE. SO YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN THE
• 1:14:22
  TALENT. NOW WHAT DOES HE SAY ABOUT IT? LET IT BE IMPRESSED ON
• 1:14:24
  YOUR MIND THAT GOD COMMANDS FOR YOU TO CHOOSE YOUR RULERS,
• 1:14:29
  CHOOSE FOR YOUR RULERS, JUST MEN WHO WILL RULE IN THE FEAR OF
• 1:14:32
  GOD. THE PRESERVATION OF OUR GOVERNMENT DEPENDS ON THE
• 1:14:35
  FAITHFUL DISCHARGE OF THIS DUTY. IF THE CITIZENS NEGLECT THEIR
• 1:14:38
  DUTY AND PLACE UNPRINCIPLED MEN IN OFFICE, THE GOVERNMENT WILL
• 1:14:41
  SOON BE CORRUPTED. LAWS WILL BE MADE NOT FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD SO
• 1:14:43
  MUCH AS FOR SELFISH OR LOCAL PURPOSES. CORRUPT OR INCOMPETENT
• 1:14:46
  MEN WILL BE APPOINTED TO EXECUTE THE LAWS. THE PUBLIC REVENUES
• 1:14:49
  WILL BE SQUANDERED ON UNWORTHY MEN, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE
• 1:14:51
  CITIZENS WILL BE VIOLATED OR DISREGARDED. SOUNDS LIKE WE'RE
• 1:14:54
  READING TODAY'S HEADLINES, RIGHT? WE'VE SEEN THAT IN THE
• 1:14:56
  LAST 20 YEARS. AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT BECAUSE WE PUT
• 1:15:00
  UNGODLY PEOPLE IN OFFICE. IF OUR GOVERNMENT FAILS TO SECURE
• 1:15:03
  PUBLIC PROSPERITY AND HAPPINESS, IT MUST BE BECAUSE THE CITIZENS
• 1:15:06
  NEGLECT THE DIVINE COMMANDS AND ELECT BAD MEN TO MAKE AND
• 1:15:10
  ADMINISTER THE LAWS. I MEAN, HE BASICALLY TOOK THE
• 1:15:13
  RESPONSIBILITY AND DUTY AND HE JUST PUT IT SQUARELY ON YOUR
• 1:15:16
  SHOULDERS AND MY SHOULDERS. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT OUR
• 1:15:19
  GOVERNMENT LOOKS LIKE. SO WE'VE GOT TO BE ENGAGED. YOU'VE GOT TO
• 1:15:22
  MULTIPLY YOUR VOICE BY TAKING THE APP, TAKING THESE VOTER
• 1:15:25
  GUIDES, SENDING THEM TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. TAKE OUR
• 1:15:27
  RADIO PROGRAM, WALLBUILDERS, AND SOME OF THESE OTHER THINGS
• 1:15:30
  AND SPREAD THE WORD. PASS THE TORCH TO THE NEXT GENERATION.
• 1:15:33
  DON'T YOU WORRY MUCH ABOUT THIS RIGHT NOW. FOCUS ON THE
• 1:15:35
  ELECTION. BUT BETWEEN NOW AND NEXT SUMMER, BE THINKING ABOUT A
• 1:15:37
  YOUNG PERSON YOU CAN SEND TO PATRIOT ACADEMY. WE'LL TRAIN YOU
• 1:15:40
  UP A LEADER THAT WILL THEN COME BACK HOME AND START A BRUSHFIRE
• 1:15:43
  OF LIBERTY RIGHT HERE. SO CHECK THAT OUT AS WELL. GIVE TO
• 1:15:46
  CANDIDATES, DONATE TO THESE CANDIDATES AND OTHER FOLKS
• 1:15:48
  AROUND THE COUNTRY THAT ARE IN CLOSE RACES. THAT'S INVESTING
• 1:15:51
  YOUR LIFE, YOUR FORTUNE, AND YOUR SACRED HONOR. GIVE MORE TO
• 1:15:55
  YOUR CHURCH. AND I MEAN THAT. THE CHURCH IS TO BE THE
• 1:15:58
  EPICENTER OF THE COMMUNITY. IF YOU WANT TO SHRINK GOVERNMENT,
• 1:16:00
  YOU'VE GOT TO EXPAND THE CHURCH. THE MORE THE CHURCH IS ABLE TO
• 1:16:04
  DO WHAT THE CHURCH HAS ALWAYS BEEN SUPPOSED TO DO, AS WE TAKE
• 1:16:06
  CARE OF THE POOR, AS YOU LOOK AT ALL THE MINISTRIES THIS CHURCH
• 1:16:08
  DOES AND THESE CHURCHES ARE DOING, WE WANT MORE OF THAT. SO
• 1:16:11
  THAT MEANS THE MORE THAT WE CAN GROW THE CHURCH, THE LESS WE CAN
• 1:16:14
  GET THE TAX BILL, THE MORE THE MONEY CAN GO AND BE MORE
• 1:16:16
  EFFECTIVE. THE CHURCH IS TWICE AS EFFECTIVE AS GOVERNMENT AT
• 1:16:19
  TAKING CARE OF THE POOR AND DEALING WITH THOSE NEEDS IN OUR
• 1:16:21
  COMMUNITY. AND THEN LASTLY, JUST SPEAK THE TRUTH. JUST BE WILLING
• 1:16:24
  TO STAND UP AND SAY, THIS IS RIGHT, THIS IS WRONG, I'M GOING
• 1:16:27
  TO SPEAK TRUTH. BUT DO NOT THINK THAT ANY OF US TONIGHT ARE
• 1:16:30
  SAYING POLITICS IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING. IT'S JUST PART OF A
• 1:16:34
  RELIGION IN A COUNTRY SUCH AS THIS. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING—
• 1:16:38
  BACK TO BENJAMIN RUSH, WHO WE OPENED WITH— HE SAID TO JOHN
• 1:16:41
  ADAMS RIGHT THERE AT THE CONTINENTAL CONGRESS, HE SAID,
• 1:16:42
  WELL, WE WIN DO YOU THINK WE CAN DEFEAT GREAT BRITAIN? I MEAN,
• 1:16:46
  WE'RE TAKING ON THE GREATEST MILITARY IN THE WORLD. DO YOU
• 1:16:48
  REALLY THINK WE CAN DO THIS? AND JOHN ADAMS DID NOT RESPOND WITH
• 1:16:51
  A MILITARY STRATEGY OR A DISSERTATION ON CIVIL RIGHTS. HE
• 1:16:54
  SAID, YES, IF WE FEAR GOD AND REPENT OF OUR SINS. SO IF WE ARE
• 1:17:00
  INDIVIDUALS UNDER GOD, WE CAN BECOME A NATION UNDER GOD AGAIN,
• 1:17:04
  AND WE'RE GOING TO DO IT TOGETHER. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS.
• 1:17:06
  THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
• 1:17:21
  THANK YOU, RICK. THAT WAS INSPIRING,
• 1:17:24
  EDUCATIONAL, ALL IN ONE. NOW I KNOW WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
• 1:17:29
  ABOUT THE FACT THAT, YOU KNOW, EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM IS VOTING
• 1:17:31
  AND THEY'RE GONNA GO FIND A FRIEND TO TELL THEM TO VOTE AS
• 1:17:33
  WELL. YOU KNOW, AND I MENTIONED THAT, AND I WANT TO ALSO— THE
• 1:17:38
  REASON I'M OUT HERE AGAIN IS TO REMIND YOU THAT THE WORK TO
• 1:17:43
  UPHOLD AND DEFEND OUR BIBLICAL VALUES DOESN'T END ON NOVEMBER
• 1:17:50
  3RD. IT DOESN'T END WHEN WE VOTE IN THE MIDTERMS. AND ACTUALLY, I
• 1:17:54
  ARGUE IT DOESN'T EVEN START THEN. A LOT OF THE THINGS I'M
• 1:17:58
  GOING TO MENTION HERE IN THE NEXT COUPLE MINUTES WE CAN START
• 1:18:01
  DOING THIS TOMORROW. WE CAN START DOING THIS RIGHT NOW. WE
• 1:18:05
  DON'T HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER 3RD TO START GETTING
• 1:18:08
  ENGAGED, START GETTING INVOLVED, AND START UNDERSTANDING HOW OUR
• 1:18:13
  CITY COUNCILS AND OUR SCHOOL BOARDS ARE WORKING. THESE ARE
• 1:18:15
  THINGS WE CAN START DOING RIGHT NOW. AND I CAN ALREADY SEE SOME
• 1:18:19
  PEOPLE ALREADY STARTING TO LIKE, OH, TERRI, GETTING INVOLVED IN
• 1:18:23
  THE CITY COUNCIL OR GETTING INVOLVED IN THE SCHOOL BOARDS,
• 1:18:25
  THAT SEEMS LIKE A LOT. TAKE A DEEP BREATH. THESE ARE EASY.
• 1:18:28
  THESE ARE EASY STEPS. DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU THINK YOU CONSIDER
• 1:18:31
  YOURSELF AN INTROVERT, AN EXTROVERT, DOESN'T MATTER.
• 1:18:35
  ANYONE CAN DO A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT I'M GOING TO LIST OUT HERE
• 1:18:39
  TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR VOICE GETS HEARD, BUT MORE
• 1:18:41
  IMPORTANTLY, THAT OUR BIBLICAL VALUES CONTINUE TO BE UPHELD
• 1:18:44
  WHEREVER YOU LIVE, WHETHER THAT'S HERE IN NEBRASKA, WHETHER
• 1:18:46
  THAT'S WHEREVER YOU'RE WATCHING. YOU CAN IMPLEMENT THESE SHORT
• 1:18:50
  LITTLE THINGS. AND I WILL SAY THIS IS NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST
• 1:18:54
  BY ANY MEANS. THESE ARE JUST 4 QUICK POINTS WHERE I WAS LIKE,
• 1:18:58
  YOU KNOW, I THINK THESE ARE GOOD. LET'S START HERE. WE CAN
• 1:19:01
  START HERE AND THEN BUILD FROM THERE. AND I'M GOING TO RUN
• 1:19:05
  THROUGH THESE KIND OF FAST, BUT IF YOU'RE A NOTE-TAKER, WE
• 1:19:08
  ACTUALLY HAVE ALL OF THESE LISTED OUT ON OUR WEBSITE AT
• 1:19:11
  VOTEYOURVALUES.INFO. YOU CAN GO BACK AND READ THOSE IF YOU
• 1:19:14
  MISSED ANYTHING THAT I SAY. YOU CAN GO BACK AND CHECK IT OUT
• 1:19:16
  THERE. BUT THE FIRST THING I'M GOING TO MENTION HERE, THINGS
• 1:19:19
  THAT WE CAN DO STARTING TOMORROW, IS STARTING TO ATTEND
• 1:19:23
  LOCAL GOVERNMENT MEETINGS. SO OUR SCHOOL BOARDS, OUR CITY
• 1:19:26
  COUNCILS, ANYTHING LIKE THAT, YOU CAN START GOING TO THOSE.
• 1:19:30
  YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO AND ATTEND. AND ACTUALLY, I SAID ONE, I
• 1:19:33
  COULD ACTUALLY DO LIKE A 0.5. YOU COULD START WATCHING. 0.5 IS
• 1:19:38
  WATCHING. STEP ONE IS ACTUALLY GOING AND ATTENDING. YOU KNOW, A
• 1:19:42
  LOT OF THESE SMALLER GOVERNMENT MEETINGS, A LOT OF THEM ARE
• 1:19:48
  LIVESTREAMED. SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY WATCH THEM, TURN THEM
• 1:19:51
  ON. YOU KNOW, I'M ONE OF THOSE, I'LL BE WORKING IN MY OFFICE. A
• 1:19:54
  LOT OF THEM ARE DURING THE DAY, AND I'LL HAVE THE LEGISLATURE ON
• 1:19:56
  OR I'LL HAVE THE CITY COUNCIL ON AND JUST LISTENING AND GETTING
• 1:20:00
  AN IDEA OF WHAT ISSUES ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT, WHAT THINGS ARE
• 1:20:04
  BEING TALKED, DEBATED AND VOTED ON. GET AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT
• 1:20:07
  THEY'RE EVEN TALKING ABOUT. SO THEN WE CAN THEN ENGAGE. WE
• 1:20:11
  CAN'T ENGAGE IF WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT. YOU
• 1:20:14
  KNOW, THE BODY OF CHRIST IN THE PAST HAS BEEN UNFORTUNATELY VERY
• 1:20:18
  REACTIVE. YOU KNOW, HOW MANY OF YOU GUYS HAVE SCROLLED ON SOCIAL
• 1:20:20
  MEDIA AND YOU SAW LIKE A VOTE THAT HAPPENED IN YOUR CITY
• 1:20:23
  COUNCIL, YOUR STATE LEGISLATURE, AND YOU WERE LIKE, WHEN DID THAT
• 1:20:27
  HAPPEN? LIKE, WHAT? LIKE, HOW DID— WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING
• 1:20:30
  ABOUT? HOW MANY TIMES HAS THAT HAPPENED TO YOU? AND YOU'RE
• 1:20:32
  LIKE, IF I ONLY KNEW. IT'S TIME TO GET PROACTIVE. HOW DO WE
• 1:20:37
  KNOW? IF WE START WATCHING. IF WE START ATTENDING THESE
• 1:20:40
  MEETINGS, THEN WE'LL KNOW WHAT'S COMING DOWN THE PIPELINE. AND SO
• 1:20:45
  THAT'S STEP 1, WATCHING AND ATTENDING OUR LOCAL MEETINGS.
• 1:20:49
  AGAIN, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AN EXTROVERT TO DO THAT. YOU CAN
• 1:20:52
  JUST GO, YOU CAN SIT, YOU CAN PRAY IN THE BACK. I DEFINITELY
• 1:20:55
  ENCOURAGE THAT, THEY COULD USE THAT. AND THEN GET AN
• 1:20:59
  UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THINGS THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT, WHAT
• 1:21:02
  ISSUES ARE BEING DISCUSSED, SO THEN WE CAN THEN GO BACK AND
• 1:21:06
  SAY, HEY, HEY, THIS BILL, THIS ISSUE IS COMING DOWN, THEY'RE
• 1:21:09
  GOING TO VOTE ON IT NEXT WEEK. LET'S GET A CALL TO ACTION.
• 1:21:12
  LET'S GET PEOPLE OUT THERE CALLING THEIR REPRESENTATIVES
• 1:21:15
  NOW INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL THE NIGHT BEFORE AND WE'RE
• 1:21:17
  SCRAMBLING. NOW WE CAN START BEING MORE PROACTIVE ABOUT WHAT
• 1:21:21
  WE'RE DOING. SO NUMBER 1, ATTENDING LOCAL GOVERNMENT
• 1:21:23
  MEETINGS. NUMBER 2, OKAY, NOW THAT WE'VE STARTED ATTENDING AND
• 1:21:26
  WE'VE GOT AN IDEA OF WHAT'S GOING ON, YOU KNOW, WE CAN START
• 1:21:29
  PARTICIPATING IN PUBLIC HEARINGS AND TOWN HALLS. YOU KNOW, A LOT
• 1:21:33
  OF THESE LOCAL GOVERNMENT MEETINGS, THEY WILL HAVE SOME
• 1:21:36
  KIND OF PUBLIC COMMENT TIME WHERE YOU CAN GO AND THEY CAN
• 1:21:40
  HEAR FROM YOU. AND I FEEL LIKE THIS IS THE POINT WHERE A LOT OF
• 1:21:44
  PEOPLE ARE LIKE, BUT TERRI, I'M JUST ME. AND I'M GUILTY OF THIS,
• 1:21:48
  WHERE I'M LIKE, I'M JUST ME. WHY DO THEY WANT TO HEAR FROM ME? I
• 1:21:51
  DON'T HAVE 10 DEGREES BEHIND MY NAME AND A MILLION LETTERS TO
• 1:21:55
  BACK UP WHAT I'M SAYING. BUT AS RICK WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT,
• 1:21:58
  THIS GOVERNMENT IS FOR YOU. THESE PEOPLE ARE ELECTED BY YOU.
• 1:22:02
  THE VOTES THAT THEY MAKE AND THE DECISIONS THAT THEY MAKE IMPACT
• 1:22:06
  YOU. SO YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO GO AND SAY HOW THIS IS GOING TO
• 1:22:11
  IMPACT YOU AND HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT. YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO GO
• 1:22:14
  AND VOICE THAT. AND SO FAR WE'VE BEEN LETTING THAT SLIDE TO THE
• 1:22:18
  WAYSIDE. AND SO I ENCOURAGE YOU TO START TAKING ADVANTAGE OF
• 1:22:21
  THOSE PUBLIC HEARINGS, THOSE PUBLIC COMMENT MOMENTS, THOSE
• 1:22:24
  TOWN HALLS. GO AND VOICE YOUR OPINION. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE
• 1:22:29
  ALL THE DATA. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE ALL THE NUMBERS. IF THAT'S
• 1:22:31
  YOUR THING, ABSOLUTELY, MORE POWER TO YOU. GO DO IT. BUT HEY,
• 1:22:35
  GO AND SAY A PERSONAL, THIS IS HOW THIS IMPACTS ME. THIS IS HOW
• 1:22:41
  THIS VOTE, THIS ISSUE IS GOING TO IMPACT MY DAILY LIFE. BECAUSE
• 1:22:46
  ESPECIALLY WITH THESE LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, YOUR CITY
• 1:22:51
  COUNCILS, YOUR SCHOOL BOARDS, THOSE ARE THE THINGS YOU'RE
• 1:22:53
  GOING TO START SEEING IMMEDIATELY WHEN THEY VOTE ON
• 1:22:55
  IT. SO USE A PERSONAL, HEY, THIS IS HOW THIS PERSONALLY AFFECTS
• 1:23:00
  ME. AND YOU KNOW, THAT ACTUALLY WEIGHS VERY HEAVILY ON A LOT OF
• 1:23:03
  THOSE ELECTED OFFICIALS. THOSE ARE THINGS THAT THEY'RE LOOKING
• 1:23:06
  AT. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES I'VE WATCHED A STATE, I'VE
• 1:23:10
  WATCHED FLOOR DEBATE AT THE STATE LEGISLATURE, OR I'VE GONE
• 1:23:12
  TO A CITY COUNCIL MEETING, AND THEY'VE SAID, OH, WELL, YOU
• 1:23:15
  KNOW, I ONLY HEARD FROM 3 PEOPLE ON THIS ISSUE, OR I ONLY GOT A
• 1:23:20
  HANDFUL OF EMAILS ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE, SO CLEARLY IT'S
• 1:23:24
  NOT IMPORTANT. WE'VE GOT TO TELL THEM AND LET THEM KNOW THAT
• 1:23:29
  THESE BIBLICAL VALUES, THESE THINGS THAT WE HOLD DEAR, THEY
• 1:23:33
  ARE IMPORTANT. AND WE'RE GOING TO STAND UP FOR THEM, AND WE'RE
• 1:23:36
  GOING TO SPEAK OUT AND DEFEND THEM, AND WE WANT THEM TO DO THE
• 1:23:39
  SAME. SO WE'VE STARTED WATCHING OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT MEETINGS.
• 1:23:48
  WE STARTED ATTENDING THE GOVERNMENT MEETINGS. WE STARTED
• 1:23:51
  GOING AND SPEAKING OUT. AND SPEAKING AT PUBLIC HEARINGS AND
• 1:23:54
  TOWN HALLS. NOW I FEEL LIKE THE NEXT THING— I DIDN'T ACTUALLY
• 1:23:56
  MAKE THIS LIST TO BE LIKE AN ASCENDING THING, BUT IT KIND OF
• 1:23:59
  HAPPENED THAT WAY. THE NEXT THING YOU COULD DO, GET TO KNOW
• 1:24:03
  YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS, IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY BY THIS POINT.
• 1:24:07
  GET TO KNOW THEM. AND AGAIN, IF YOU'RE LIKE, "TERRI, OH MAN, I'M
• 1:24:12
  REALLY GETTING OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE AGAIN, THAT'S GONNA BE
• 1:24:14
  REALLY HARD," START WITH A PHONE CALL, AN EMAIL, WRITE THEM A
• 1:24:18
  LETTER. AND LET THEM KNOW, HEY, MY NAME'S SO-AND-SO, I'M A
• 1:24:23
  CONSTITUENT OF YOURS, AND THIS IS HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
• 1:24:26
  AND JUST REACH OUT TO THEM. AGAIN, ANOTHER EASY STEP THAT
• 1:24:32
  YOU CAN MAKE YOUR VOICE BE HEARD AND LET THEM KNOW WHERE YOU
• 1:24:36
  STAND, WHERE THEIR CONSTITUENTS STAND ON SPECIFIC ISSUES. AND,
• 1:24:43
  YOU KNOW, THE OTHER THING I MENTIONED ABOUT THIS, TOO, IS
• 1:24:46
  WE'RE PRETTY GOOD ABOUT REACHING OUT TO THEM WHEN WE'RE MAD AT
• 1:24:49
  THEM. YOU KNOW, IT'S EASY TO GO AND TO YELL AND BE LIKE, AH, WHY
• 1:24:55
  DID YOU VOTE THAT WAY? BUT I TAKE AN EXAMPLE OF THE FACT OF
• 1:25:02
  PROTECTING OUR GIRLS' SPORTS AND KEEPING BIOLOGICAL BOYS OUT OF
• 1:25:05
  THEM. I KNOW THAT THAT'S AN ISSUE THAT HAS NOT ONLY BEEN
• 1:25:08
  HERE IN NEBRASKA, BUT ACROSS THE NATION, WHERE THAT'S BEEN IN A
• 1:25:11
  LOT OF STATE LEGISLATURES SPECIFICALLY. AND I KNOW THAT
• 1:25:14
  THERE HAVE BEEN SOME LEGISLATURES THAT HAVE ACTUALLY
• 1:25:17
  PROTECTED GIRLS' SPORTS. HOW MANY OF US REACHED OUT TO THOSE
• 1:25:22
  ELECTED OFFICIALS AND SAID THANK YOU? THANK YOU FOR UPHOLDING AND
• 1:25:27
  PROTECTING GIRLS' SPORTS. THANK YOU FOR DEFENDING TRUTH. BECAUSE
• 1:25:32
  THEY'RE TAKING SHOTS OUT THERE TOO, WHEN THEY INTRODUCE THOSE
• 1:25:36
  BILLS AND THEN WHEN THEY GO AND VOTE FOR THEM. YOU KNOW, WE DO
• 1:25:40
  SO MUCH TO TRY TO RECRUIT GOOD CANDIDATES THAT ARE GOING TO
• 1:25:44
  STAND AND DEFEND OUR BIBLICAL VALUES. AND WE'RE LIKE, YEAH,
• 1:25:48
  WHEN THEY'RE RUNNING FOR OFFICE, AND THEN THEY GET IN OFFICE AND
• 1:25:50
  WE'RE LIKE, OKAY, YOU GOT IT. THEY NEED TO KNOW THAT THEY'VE
• 1:25:55
  GOT PEOPLE BEHIND THEM. THEY'VE GOT TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE
• 1:25:59
  PEOPLE THAT ARE PRAYING FOR THEM, THAT ARE GOING TO SUPPORT
• 1:26:02
  THEM WHEN THEY DO STAND FOR OUR BIBLICAL VALUES. AND SO I
• 1:26:06
  ENCOURAGE YOU, IF YOU HAVEN'T YET, AGAIN, THIS IS SOMETHING
• 1:26:09
  YOU COULD EVEN DO THIS TONIGHT, SEND THEM AN EMAIL AND LET THEM
• 1:26:12
  KNOW, HEY, THIS IS WHO I AM. SO, WE'VE STARTED WATCHING OUR LOCAL
• 1:26:18
  GOVERNMENT MEETINGS AND ATTENDING LOCAL GOVERNMENT
• 1:26:20
  WE'VE STARTED GOING AND PARTICIPATING IN TOWN HALLS
• 1:26:25
  AND PUBLIC HEARINGS, WE'VE GOTTEN TO KNOW OUR ELECTED
• 1:26:27
  OFFICIALS. OKAY, THE LAST THING WE CAN START DOING HERE, WE CAN
• 1:26:31
  ACTUALLY START JOINING SOME OF THOSE LOCAL BOARDS, BOARDS,
• 1:26:34
  COMMISSIONS, AND COMMITTEES. YOU KNOW, A LOT OF CITIES AND
• 1:26:41
  COUNTIES HAVE VOLUNTEER-APPOINTED BOARDS AND
• 1:26:46
  COMMISSIONS THAT RESIDENTS CAN BE A PART OF, THAT CITIZENS CAN
• 1:26:49
  BE A PART OF, WHERE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE. LET'S
• 1:26:55
  TALK ABOUT THAT FOR A SECOND. YOU HAVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE
• 1:26:59
  WHEN POLICY IS FIRST BEING TALKED ABOUT. SO BEFORE WE EVEN
• 1:27:03
  GET TO THE VOTING PART, BEFORE WE EVEN GET TO THAT, YOU
• 1:27:07
  ACTUALLY CAN, AGAIN, TALKING ABOUT BEING PROACTIVE, NOW ALL
• 1:27:12
  OF A SUDDEN YOU'RE AT THE TABLE WHERE THEY START TALKING ABOUT,
• 1:27:14
  OH, IS THIS AN ISSUE WE SHOULD EVEN BRING UP? CAN YOU IMAGINE
• 1:27:19
  WHAT SOME OF THESE BOARDS WOULD LOOK LIKE, OR WHAT SOME OF OUR
• 1:27:24
  CITIES AND COMMUNITIES WOULD LOOK LIKE IF WE HAD BOLD
• 1:27:28
  BELIEVERS ON EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
• 1:27:33
  SITTING AT THE TABLE, HELPING TO DECIDE WHAT THINGS ACTUALLY THEN
• 1:27:41
  GO FORWARD ONTO, WHETHER IT'S A CITY COUNCIL MEETING OR A STATE
• 1:27:45
  LEGISLATURE. AND THESE BOARDS RANGE FROM ALL DIFFERENT THINGS.
• 1:27:48
  IT CAN BE ANYTHING FROM YOUR— THEY'VE GOT PUBLIC ARTS
• 1:27:51
  COMMISSIONS, THEY'VE GOT THE ELECTRICAL BOARD, THEY'VE GOT
• 1:27:54
  THE LIBRARY BOARD. I KNOW WE NEED PEOPLE ON THAT, THAT'S FOR
• 1:27:57
  SURE. BUT THERE'S A LOT OF BOARDS OUT THERE. WHEN I
• 1:28:02
  ACTUALLY WORKED AT THE CITY, THIS WAS ONE OF THE THINGS I
• 1:28:04
  DID, WAS TRYING TO FIND PEOPLE TO FILL THESE POSITIONS. THERE
• 1:28:08
  ARE ALWAYS POSITIONS OPEN. SO I WOULD RECOMMEND LOOKING AT YOUR
• 1:28:13
  CITY WEBSITE, YOUR COUNTY WEBSITE, SEEING WHAT BOARDS,
• 1:28:18
  WHAT COMMISSIONS YOU CAN SIT ON. EVEN AT THE STATE LEVEL, WE HAVE
• 1:28:21
  STATE-LEVEL BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS AS WELL. CAN YOU
• 1:28:24
  IMAGINE IF WE HAD BOLD BELIEVERS AT THE STATE LEVEL THAT WERE
• 1:28:29
  SITTING AT THE TABLE OF POLICY DEVELOPMENT? WHAT WOULD OUR
• 1:28:34
  CITIES, OUR COMMUNITIES, AND OUR STATES LOOK LIKE? THERE ARE SO
• 1:28:39
  MANY WAYS THAT WE CAN IMPACT AND MAKE SURE THAT OUR BIBLICAL
• 1:28:44
  VALUES ARE BEING UPHELD WAY PAST WHEN WE VOTE NOVEMBER WE CAN
• 1:28:49
  START WATCHING OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT MEETINGS AND
• 1:28:55
  ATTENDING THE GOVERNMENT MEETINGS. WE CAN START GOING TO
• 1:28:58
  PUBLIC HEARINGS AND TOWN HALLS. WE CAN START GETTING CONNECTED
• 1:29:01
  WITH OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS. WE CAN START LOOKING AT WHAT
• 1:29:04
  OPPORTUNITIES WE HAVE TO JOIN BOARDS AND TASK FORCES AND WHERE
• 1:29:08
  WE CAN FIT. AND I'M JUST GOING TO— LIKE I SAID, THIS IS JUST
• 1:29:12
  NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST AT ALL. BUT THIS IS JUST AN EASY PLACE
• 1:29:15
  THAT YOU COULD START TOMORROW. AND I'M GOING TO TAKE KIND OF A
• 1:29:19
  LITTLE BOOK OUT, A PAGE OUT OF RICK'S BOOK HERE. I DIDN'T EVEN
• 1:29:22
  KNOW, BUT I HAD A QUOTE JUST TO END WITH HERE, AND IT'S FROM
• 1:29:26
  JOHN ADAMS, AND IT SAYS, OUR CONSTITUTION WAS MADE FOR A
• 1:29:31
  MORAL AND RELIGIOUS PEOPLE. IT IS WHOLLY INADEQUATE TO THE
• 1:29:36
  GOVERNMENT OF ANY OTHER. AND WHEN I READ THAT QUOTE, TO ME
• 1:29:41
  THAT SAYS THAT OUR GOVERNMENT, OUR CONSTITUTION WAS MADE WITH
• 1:29:46
  THE INTENT OF CHRISTIANS BEING INVOLVED AND BEING A PART OF IT.
• 1:29:52
  I THINK IT'S TIME FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST TO STOP BEING
• 1:29:55
  REACTIVE, TO BE PROACTIVE AND START TAKING
• 1:29:58
  OUR SEAT AT THE TABLE.
• 1:30:10
  THANK YOU. AND LIKE I SAID, IF I RAN THROUGH THAT, I
• 1:30:12
  RAN THROUGH IT REALLY FAST, BUT YOU CAN GO TO
• 1:30:14
  VOTEYOURVALUES.INFO. THAT HAS ALL OF THE THINGS I WENT THROUGH
• 1:30:18
  TONIGHT. BUT I WANT TO NEXT KIND OF TURN IT OVER TO SOME PEOPLE
• 1:30:22
  WHO HAVE DECIDED TO TAKE THAT STAND AND TO STEP OUT AND TO BE
• 1:30:27
  A PART OF OUR ELECTED GOVERNMENT. I'M GOING TO FIRST
• 1:30:31
  TO FIRST START OFF WITH SOMEONE
• 1:30:33
  WHO WANTED TO BE HERE. HE REALLY DID. HE TRIED HIS BEST TO BE
• 1:30:37
  HERE, BUT HE SENT A VIDEO IN HIS STEAD BECAUSE HE WAS GOING TO
• 1:30:41
  BE, I THINK, HONORED AT THE RALLY LATER. AND THAT IS SCOTT
• 1:30:45
  PETERSEN. HE IS RUNNING FOR NEBRASKA SECRETARY OF STATE. I
• 1:30:49
  KNOW A LOT OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH HIM, YES. AND SO HE SENT A
• 1:30:55
  LITTLE VIDEO THAT I JUST WANT TO SHARE WITH EVERYONE HERE. HI
• 1:31:01
  THERE. I'M SCOTT PETERSEN, AND I'M RUNNING FOR SECRETARY OF
• 1:31:05
  STATE OF NEBRASKA. I WANT TO THANK TERRI AND YOUR TEAM FOR
• 1:31:09
  THE INVITATION TO JOIN YOU. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME. I WISH I COULD
• 1:31:13
  BE HERE. I THINK I'M GOING TO END UP BEING WITH PRESIDENT
• 1:31:17
  TRUMP IN GRAND ISLAND, AND WE'LL HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY ON MONDAY.
• 1:31:22
  BIG MESSAGE IS DEFENDING NEBRASKA. MY CAMPAIGN, BY THE
• 1:31:28
  WAY, I DECIDED TO RUN FOR OFFICE ON FEBRUARY 6TH. I WAS TRYING TO
• 1:31:34
  RECRUIT SOMEBODY ELSE TO RUN FOR OFFICE. NOBODY WOULD DO IT. I
• 1:31:37
  THINK GOD PUT SOMETHING IN MY HEAD AND SAID, RUN. I DECIDED TO
• 1:31:40
  RUN, AND EVERY PRAYER SINCE THEN HAS BEEN ANSWERED, AND WE ENDED
• 1:31:45
  UP WINNING BIG IN THE PRIMARY. IT WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.
• 1:31:49
  SUCH A BLESSING. I GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO ACROSS
• 1:31:52
  NEBRASKA, MEET SO MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE. AND OH, BY THE WAY,
• 1:31:56
  SOMETHING ABOUT WESTERN NEBRASKA, THEY'RE NOT AFRAID TO
• 1:32:00
  TALK POLITICS IN CHURCH. THEY'RE NOT AFRAID TO TALK CHURCH WITH
• 1:32:03
  THEIR POLITICS. SO YOU KNOW WHAT? IT WAS A WONDERFUL
• 1:32:06
  EXPERIENCE. I WOULDN'T GIVE IT BACK FOR ANYTHING. NOW WE'RE IN
• 1:32:09
  THE PRIMARY, OR WE'RE GOING TO THE GENERAL ON NOVEMBER 3RD, AND
• 1:32:14
  IT'S ABOUT DEFENDING NEBRASKA. OUR STATE'S UNDER ASSAULT.
• 1:32:20
  THERE'S SO MUCH MONEY COMING INTO OUR STATE AND SUPPORTING
• 1:32:24
  PEOPLE THAT WOULD ABSOLUTELY DESTROY THE VALUES THAT MAKE
• 1:32:29
  THIS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE, WORK, AND RAISE OUR FAMILIES.
• 1:32:33
  IT'S OUR JOB RIGHT NOW TO GET OUT AND VOTE. YOU BETTER MAKE
• 1:32:37
  YOUR VOICE HEARD BECAUSE WE ARE UNDER ASSAULT, AND THE ONLY WAY
• 1:32:40
  WE DEFEND THIS STATE IS IF WE GET OUT AND VOTE. SO THAT'S THE
• 1:32:45
  MESSAGE. GET INVOLVED. MAKE SURE YOUR VOICE IS HEARD AT THE
• 1:32:50
  ELECTION ON NOVEMBER 3RD. AND WE CAN KEEP NEBRASKA A WONDERFUL
• 1:32:56
  PLACE TO LIVE, WORK, AND RAISE OUR FAMILIES. I WANT NEBRASKANS
• 1:33:02
  DECIDING NEBRASKA'S ELECTIONS. THAT OUTSIDE MONEY IS CORRUPTING
• 1:33:07
  OUR ELECTIONS. WHEN I GET ELECTED AS SECRETARY OF STATE,
• 1:33:10
  I'M GOING TO WORK ON THAT, AND WE'RE GOING TO DISCOURAGE ALL
• 1:33:13
  THAT MONEY COMING INTO OUR STATE AND CORRUPTING OUR ELECTIONS. SO
• 1:33:16
  HELP ME GET OUT AND VOTE. IF YOU WANT TO CHECK ME OUT,
• 1:33:21
  PETERSENFORNEBRASKA.COM. WE DO A LITTLE VOTER TREE PROCESS. IT'S
• 1:33:26
  ALL ABOUT GETTING YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, AND NEIGHBORS OUT TO
• 1:33:28
  VOTE. I ENCOURAGE YOU GUYS. THAT'S WHAT WE DO. AND PETE
• 1:33:32
  RICKETTS SAYS VOTE 10 TIMES. THAT'S WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.
• 1:33:35
  MAKE SURE OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY VOTE. SO, LET'S DO IT. I'M
• 1:33:38
  LOOKING FORWARD TO VISITING SOMETIME. I CAN'T WAIT TO REALLY
• 1:33:42
  BE HERE AND ENJOY ONE OF YOUR SERVICES. I EXPECT AN
• 1:33:46
  INVITATION. SO, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO.
• 1:33:56
  LIKE I SAID, SCOTT TRIED VERY HARD TO BE HERE, SO I WAS
• 1:33:59
  THANKFUL THAT HE WAS ABLE TO SEND A VIDEO FOR US. NOW, I WANT
• 1:34:03
  TO INVITE UP BILL BOESE TO COME ON UP TO THE STAGE. AS A
• 1:34:13
  REMINDER, BILL IS RUNNING FOR NEBRASKA STATE LEGISLATURE
• 1:34:16
  DISTRICT 14. TALK A MINUTE OR TWO ABOUT YOUR RACE. FOLLOWING
• 1:34:21
  RICK AND THEN FOLLOWING TERRI, I DON'T KNOW HOW GOOD THAT IS. MY
• 1:34:25
  NAME IS BILL BOESE. I WANT TO TAKE YOU TO MATTHEW 22, ONE OF
• 1:34:29
  MY FAVORITE LITTLE SECTIONS IN THE BIBLE. THE BIBLE IS AN
• 1:34:33
  AMAZING BOOK. I THOUGHT I'D GET AN AMEN OUT OF THAT. OH, THANK
• 1:34:37
  YOU. OKAY. BUT MATTHEW 22, THE PHARISEES ARE TRYING TO TRAP
• 1:34:42
  JESUS INTO MAKING A STATEMENT THAT WILL INCRIMINATE HIM. ONE
• 1:34:45
  OF THE GROUP OF THE PHARISEES, A LAWYER, SAID, I'VE GOT IT.
• 1:34:49
  JESUS, WHAT IS THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT? JESUS ANSWERS, LOVE
• 1:34:54
  THE LORD YOUR GOD. WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR MIND, WITH
• 1:34:59
  ALL YOUR SOUL. BUT WHAT DOES HE ADD ON TO THAT? LOVE YOUR
• 1:35:05
  NEIGHBOR. EVERYTHING WE DO IS BASED IN LOVE. SOMETIMES LOVE IS
• 1:35:11
  HARD. SOMETIMES LOVE IS EASY. TWO PRINCIPLES THAT I WILL
• 1:35:16
  OPERATE IN THE STATE LEGISLATURE UNDER: JUSTICE, FAIRNESS FOR
• 1:35:21
  ALL, TREAT EVERYONE THE SAME. TREAT EVERYONE WELL ON A BASIS
• 1:35:26
  OF LOVE. I AM PRAYING AND I'M ASKING YOU TO PRAY FOR THE
• 1:35:30
  WISDOM OF SOLOMON. I WANT TO MAKE WISE DECISIONS FOR OUR
• 1:35:34
  STATE, AND THE BASIS OF THAT IS GOING TO BE GOD'S LOVE. AND THEN
• 1:35:39
  NUMBER 2 IS PERSEVERANCE. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR MY
• 1:35:43
  WIFE AND I RIGHT NOW. WE'RE IN THE FINAL 4 WEEKS OF THIS
• 1:35:46
  CAMPAIGN. WE STARTED DOOR KNOCKING IN JULY OF 2025. IT'S
• 1:35:51
  BEEN A LONG ROAD. MY WIFE SAYS I COULD HAVE GIVEN BIRTH TO 2 KIDS
• 1:35:56
  BY NOW. WE'RE READY TO BIRTH THIS ELECTION. THANK YOU FOR
• 1:36:02
  THIS OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND
• 1:36:06
  THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT. THANK YOU, BILL, SO MUCH. WE'VE
• 1:36:17
  GOT A LOT TO FIGHT FOR IN THE LEGISLATURE. NEXT PERSON I WANT
• 1:36:22
  TO INVITE UP WOULD BE LINDA. LINDA VERMOOTEN, COME ON UP. SHE
• 1:36:28
  IS RUNNING FOR THE SARPY AND DOUGLAS COUNTY LEARNING
• 1:36:32
  COMMUNITY. SO SHE'S GOING TO BE FIGHTING FOR OUR CHILDREN IN
• 1:36:36
  BOTH DOUGLAS AND SARPY COUNTY DISTRICT 5. FIRST OF ALL, I LOVE
• 1:36:47
  GOD WITH ALL MY HEART, ALL MY MIND, AND ALL MY SOUL. AND
• 1:36:51
  SECOND OF ALL, I LOVE MY COUNTRY, THE UNITED STATES OF
• 1:36:54
  AMERICA. GOD BROUGHT ME HERE. I'M NOT BORN HERE. MANY OF YOU
• 1:36:59
  KNOW I'M FROM SOUTH AFRICA, AND THERE'S MANY OF OUR CITIZENS
• 1:37:04
  THAT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO COME HERE BECAUSE OF OUR GREAT
• 1:37:07
  PRESIDENT. AND HE'S SAVING THEIR LIVES. AND THAT'S SORT OF MY
• 1:37:11
  FULL-TIME UNPAID JOB AT THE MOMENT IS HELPING THEM. AND
• 1:37:16
  THIRDLY, I LOVE THE CHILDREN OF THESE COUNTIES. MANY OF YOU KNOW
• 1:37:21
  THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'M RUNNING. I RAN FOR THE STATE
• 1:37:25
  BOARD OF EDUCATION. TAKE TERRI'S WORDS TO HEART, GET INVOLVED. IT
• 1:37:32
  MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE IF YOU JUST GO SIT IN THE ROOM AND
• 1:37:36
  PRAY, BECAUSE THE POWERS THAT ARE UNSEEN ARE IMPACTED BY YOUR
• 1:37:42
  PRAYERS. SO NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THAT, AND THEN PLEASE GO AND
• 1:37:49
  TESTIFY. IT'S REALLY NOT SCARY. IT'S MUCH MORE SCARY TO BE UP ON
• 1:37:54
  THE STAGE RIGHT NOW THAN TO TESTIFY THERE. YOU'RE ONLY
• 1:37:59
  TALKING TO THE BOARD, 7 OR 8 PEOPLE. EVERYONE ELSE IS BEHIND
• 1:38:03
  YOU, SO THEY DON'T MATTER, AND YOU'RE JUST TALKING TO THOSE 8
• 1:38:07
  PEOPLE AND YOU'RE SHARING YOUR HEART. OUR KIDS' EDUCATION IS
• 1:38:12
  CRUCIAL. WHAT DOES THE LEARNING COMMUNITY DO? WELL, IT'S
• 1:38:17
  BASICALLY A COMMISSION THAT OVERSEES THE MONEY FOR THE SARPY
• 1:38:22
  AND DOUGLAS COUNTY SCHOOLS. IT'S A GREAT RESPONSIBILITY. AND
• 1:38:27
  THERE ARE VERY FEW PEOPLE THAT ARE REALLY STANDING ON BIBLICAL
• 1:38:31
  PRINCIPLES SERVING ON THIS COMMITTEE. AND WE ALSO STAND TO
• 1:38:37
  HELP THE CHILDREN THAT ARE IN THE IMPOVERISHED AREAS. SO ONE
• 1:38:42
  OF THE CHALLENGES THAT I HAVE NOTED IS THAT SOME OF THIS MONEY
• 1:38:47
  HAS BEEN USED TO PAY FOR ILLEGALS TO HAVE THEIR CHILDREN
• 1:38:52
  IN DAYCARE. NOW, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT AS A CITIZEN, I'M
• 1:38:56
  OUTRAGED BY THAT BECAUSE THAT'S NOT WHAT OUR TAX MONEY IS GOING
• 1:39:02
  FOR. IT'S TO HELP OUR CHILDREN BE SUCCESSFUL SO WE CAN BUILD A
• 1:39:07
  FUTURE FOR THEM AND A BETTER AMERICA FOR ALL OF US. THAT'S
• 1:39:12
  WHY I'M RUNNING. AND I'M LIKE ANY CANDIDATE, HOW CAN YOU HELP
• 1:39:16
  ME? WELL, IF YOU HAVE ANY TIME FREE ON FRIDAY MORNING, WE'RE
• 1:39:19
  GOING TO BE GOING OUT AND KNOCKING DOORS. AGAIN. THAT'S
• 1:39:24
  VERY IMPORTANT, SO PLEASE PRAY IT DOESN'T RAIN BECAUSE A LOT OF
• 1:39:26
  DAYS IT'S RAINED AND THEN YOU JUST GET WET. BUT SECOND, PRAY
• 1:39:34
  LIKE BROTHER BO SAID, WE NEED WISDOM, WE NEED ENERGY, AND I
• 1:39:39
  FUNCTION ON JOSHUA 1:9 WHERE GOD SAYS, "HAVE I NOT COMMANDED YOU
• 1:39:44
  TO BE STRONG AND COURAGEOUS? HAVE I NOT COMMANDED YOU TO BE
• 1:39:48
  VERY COURAGEOUS, AND THE ONLY TIME YOU HAVE TO BE VERY
• 1:39:52
  COURAGEOUS IS BECAUSE THERE'S GOOD REASON TO BE TERRIFIED, BUT
• 1:39:57
  GOD IS WITH US AND HE SAYS, "IF I'M WITH YOU, YOU CAN DO
• 1:40:03
  ANYTHING." SO LASTLY, IN THE LOBBY I HAVE SOME YARD SIGNS. IT
• 1:40:10
  REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE IF YOU PUT A YARD SIGN BECAUSE
• 1:40:13
  IT'S NAME RECOGNITION. PEOPLE DON'T KNOW YOU, BUT THEY SAY,
• 1:40:17
  "OH, I'VE SEEN YOUR NAME EVERYWHERE," SO THEY VOTE FOR
• 1:40:20
  YOU. AND THAT'S HOW THE BAD PEOPLE ALSO GET IN, BECAUSE THEY
• 1:40:24
  DO THE SAME THING. SO PLEASE TAKE SOME OF OUR SIGNS, PUT THEM
• 1:40:28
  IN YOUR YARD. THERE'S ALSO OTHER LITERATURE THERE. AND OF COURSE,
• 1:40:32
  WE ALL NEED FINANCES BECAUSE ALL OF THIS COSTS MONEY, AND WE'RE
• 1:40:35
  IN THAT FINAL PUSH. IT'S EVERYTHING ON THE TABLE. DON'T
• 1:40:40
  LEAVE ANYTHING THAT YOU REGRET, BECAUSE ONE VOTE CAN MAKE A
• 1:40:44
  DIFFERENCE. YOU KNOW, IT'S A FRIEND OF MINE JUST LOST HER
• 1:40:47
  VOTE IN THE PRIMARY BY 13 VOTES, SO GET OUT AND VOTE. THANK YOU.
• 1:40:53
  THANK YOU, LINDA. THANK YOU, LINDA. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I
• 1:41:04
  AM VERY EXCITED TO WELCOME UP TO THE STAGE DALE WILLIAM
• 1:41:07
  BRANDSBERG. HE IS RUNNING FOR EDUCATIONAL SERVICE UNIT NUMBER
• 1:41:18
  3, AND I'M EXCITED THAT YOU GET TO SPEAK TOO BECAUSE I THINK
• 1:41:21
  YOU'RE LIKE THE LAST ONE ON THE BALLOT. I THINK YOU'RE THE LAST
• 1:41:25
  CANDIDATE PEOPLE GET TO VOTE FOR, AND SO MAKE SURE YOU FINISH
• 1:41:28
  YOUR BALLOTS. THANK YOU, TERRI. FIRST, I WANT TO SAY PASTOR HANK
• 1:41:35
  AND PASTOR BRENDA, THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS. THIS IS AN
• 1:41:38
  INCREDIBLE THING. THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY THAT WE
• 1:41:41
  HAVE TO BE ABLE TO GIVE OUR VOICES OUT THERE. AGAIN, I AM A
• 1:41:45
  VERY PROUD MEMBER OF THIS CHURCH, AND I FEEL LIKE THE WAY
• 1:41:49
  MY PASTOR TALKS ABOUT THE POLITICS AND GETTING INVOLVED,
• 1:41:53
  THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS I'M GETTING INVOLVED. NOW, I HAVE A
• 1:41:58
  SPEECH FOR HALF AN HOUR. HOW MUCH TIME DO I HAVE, TERRI? NO,
• 1:42:02
  BUT I DO HAVE A FEW THINGS. I HAVE A FEW THINGS THAT I DO WANT
• 1:42:05
  TO TALK ABOUT. FIRST, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO, IF
• 1:42:10
  YOU'RE NOT THINKING ABOUT VOTING, THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY.
• 1:42:14
  THE LEFT ISN'T TRYING TO GET RID OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOMS. THEY'RE
• 1:42:20
  TRYING TO GET RID OF OUR RELIGIOUS FREEDOMS. THEY'RE
• 1:42:23
  TRYING TO ATTACK US CHRISTIANS AND THE FREEDOMS THAT WE HAVE.
• 1:42:27
  THEY'RE OKAY WITH RELIGION. THEY'RE JUST NOT OKAY WITH OURS.
• 1:42:30
  AND IF YOU'RE NOT VOTING, YOU'RE LETTING THEM TAKE US AWAY. SO MY
• 1:42:38
  NAME IS DALE WILLIAM BRANDSBERG. UNFORTUNATELY, I HAD TO USE MY
• 1:42:42
  MIDDLE NAME BECAUSE I FILLED OUT THE PAPERWORK WRONG. BUT THE
• 1:42:45
  GOOD NEWS IS THAT'S GREAT NAME RECOGNITION, RIGHT? SO IF I HAD
• 1:42:50
  MY WAY, IT'D BE DALE W. BRANDSBERG. BUT, YOU KNOW, SO
• 1:42:54
  THAT'S GOOD NAME RECOGNITION. I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR PEOPLE. DO
• 1:42:58
  YOU KNOW WHAT ESU DOES? IS ANYBODY— THERE'S A PERSON THERE.
• 1:43:03
  SO 1.5% OF THE PEOPLE. SO I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ESU DID EITHER.
• 1:43:08
  I HAD A FRIEND OF MINE COME AND TALK TO ME ABOUT RUNNING FOR AN
• 1:43:11
  OFFICE, AND THIS ESU 3 DISTRICT 5 IS THE OFFICE THAT HE THOUGHT
• 1:43:16
  THAT I SHOULD RUN FOR. WHAT ESU DOES IS THEY'RE VERY, VERY
• 1:43:20
  IMPORTANT. THEY'RE THE GROUP THAT BUYS TEXTBOOKS, BUYS
• 1:43:24
  COMPUTER PROGRAMS, BUYS THE TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMS, AND
• 1:43:28
  THEY ARE THE ONES WHO DISTRIBUTE THEM TO THE SCHOOLS. SO THINK
• 1:43:32
  ABOUT WHAT YOUR KIDS ARE LEARNING RIGHT NOW AND YOUR
• 1:43:34
  GRANDKIDS ARE LEARNING RIGHT NOW. I'M GOING TO BE THE CONDUIT
• 1:43:38
  TO EXPOSE A LOT OF THE STUFF THAT'S IN THOSE TEXTBOOKS. I'M
• 1:43:42
  GOING TO EXPOSE WHAT WE'RE TRAINING, WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH
• 1:43:44
  TEACHERS TRAINING. I WANT TO GET A PROGRAM GOING WHERE PARENTS
• 1:43:55
  AND GRANDPARENTS CAN COME TO ME AND TALK ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON
• 1:43:58
  IN ESU. AND I WILL EXPLAIN TO THEM AND GIVE THEM WHAT IS GOING
• 1:44:02
  ON SO THEY'RE AWARE OF WHAT THEIR KIDS ARE LEARNING. SO I
• 1:44:06
  HAVE GRANDKIDS. MY KIDS ARE OUT OF SCHOOL, BUT MY GRANDKIDS, I'M
• 1:44:10
  AFRAID RIGHT NOW FOR THEM AND WHAT THEY'RE TEACHING IN
• 1:44:13
  SCHOOLS. SO I'M GOING TO BE THAT PERSON WHO IS GOING TO START
• 1:44:17
  EXPOSING THAT AGAIN. IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG PROCESS, BUT I
• 1:44:21
  PROMISE YOU THAT THAT IS WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. THE IDEA
• 1:44:26
  OF VOTING. EVERYBODY HERE, TAKE YOUR KIDS, TAKE YOUR
• 1:44:32
  GRANDKIDS. WHEN YOU GET YOUR BALLOT, FILL IT OUT WITH THEM.
• 1:44:37
  WE NEED THE YOUNGER GENERATION TO KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO
• 1:44:40
  VOTE. AND IF WE GET THEM AND WE SIT DOWN WITH THEM AND START
• 1:44:43
  FILLING THEM OUT, TAKE THEM TO THE POLLS WITH YOU. LET THEM SEE
• 1:44:46
  THAT PROCESS. BECAUSE AGAIN, THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ARE GOING
• 1:44:50
  TO KEEP THIS COUNTRY GOING. WE'RE DOING IT NOW. THEY'RE THE
• 1:44:53
  ONES THAT ARE GOING TO KEEP THIS COUNTRY GOING. GET THEM
• 1:44:56
  INVOLVED. THEY NEED TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS RIGHT
• 1:44:59
  HERE. THE, YOU KNOW, THE VOTING STARTS TODAY. SO LIKE LINDA WAS
• 1:45:06
  SAYING, YOU KNOW, MY CAMPAIGN, IT'S NOT A, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT A
• 1:45:09
  BIG MONEY CAMPAIGN, BUT I STILL, I NEED YARD SIGNS. I NEED MY
• 1:45:13
  NAME OUT THERE. IT'S ALL ABOUT NAME RECOGNITION. SO MY WEBSITE
• 1:45:16
  IS DWB4NE.COM. IF YOU CAN HELP GO DOOR KNOCK, I, MY WHOLE RACE
• 1:45:25
  IS RECOGNITION. THE GUY I'M RUNNING AGAINST, WHO HAPPENS TO
• 1:45:28
  BE A LIBERAL, HE IS, HE'S ONE, AS TERRI MOVES CLOSER. ALL
• 1:45:32
  RIGHT, I'M WAITING FOR THAT GONG SHOW HOOK TO COME. THE FIRST TWO
• 1:45:38
  TIMES HE RAN UNOPPOSED, HE GOT 14,000 VOTES THE FIRST TIME, HE
• 1:45:41
  GOT 6,000 VOTES THE SECOND TIME. A RACE LIKE MINE, 6,000 VOTES.
• 1:45:47
  SO PLEASE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE IN MY DISTRICT, BUT WHATEVER
• 1:45:51
  DISTRICT YOU'RE IN, GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE BALLOT FIRST AND
• 1:45:55
  VOTE UP. THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO DO. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU VERY
