  Speaker 1: doing is he's giving you a deal. I don't know
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: if y'all are hearing this or not, but when you
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: go to them directly and buy the tickets, you avoid
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the surcharges, the big surcharges that come with Ticketmasters. Now,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Ticketmasters is the giants, and there ain't no way around them.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: In a lot of concerts, you have to do.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Business with them.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: It is what it is. They have practically a monopoly,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: but they're asking you to go to mega-fest.com, mega-fest.com, and
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you can buy your tickets directly where you don't pay
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the huge surcharge.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So that's the deal for you. Also, y'all, Babyface going
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: to be there.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Joe going to be there.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Tony Braxton and the Braxton sisters going to be there.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Then they got a special thing. They got a Mega
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Kids Sessions. So you can bring your kids and they
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: can attend the Mega Kids session. Now, if your kids
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: don't know how to act, don't drop them.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Off at the Mega Kids session.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: That ain't what we doing.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: You feel the need to say that. You really do. Because, hey,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: church folk got.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Crazy kids, too.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: You know something? Last time we did Mega Kids, we
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: had almost 10,000 kids under 12. Oh, wow. We had events.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: We had all kinds of contests. We had games for
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: them to play. We taught them. We had movies for them.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: We entertained them. I mean, because it is a family festival.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: We have something for teenagers. We got something for all ages.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: But I was glad that the Lord didn't call me
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: to the children's ministry that day.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Good thing I got called to do adults. Oh, I'm
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: not cut out for this. Sit down.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: I had trouble with five, so, you know.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Because you scared the kids because you ain't the smallest
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: man out there. Papa the Giant Man was telling us
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: about Jesus. That wasn't no giant man. That bitch was Jesus. Hey, man,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I got to commend you. What a great event, man.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: This sounds like the best one ever. Joel Osteen, Marvin Sapp,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you know, Mary Mary. The list goes on and on, everybody.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: But the important thing is his family. It's something for everybody. Look,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: here's the thing I like about Bishop's event. It's for
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: church folk. But guess what? It's for everybody to come.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: And it's something to do, man. You can sit down
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and laugh with Cedric.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: You understand?
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: You can sit down and sing along with Babyface and
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Joe and all these people, man, because they get it.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: He ain't.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Ramming at the cross down your throat for five days.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: We're going to let you have it. But we also
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: got a good balance in there. Teach you how to
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: get through life. Come and learn yourself some life skills, man.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Everybody want to go to heaven. Y'all don't feel like
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: dying to get there. But in the meantime, can you
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: have a little slice of heaven on earth? Come and
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: get your soul filled and fixed. Have a great time
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: with the family. Enjoy yourself. And Lord have mercy. You
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: might walk out of there a better person. I know
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: when I did it, I sure did. Bishop Jakes.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir. You my man, boy. I appreciate you so much, man.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: And speaking of what you did, you just blew the
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: doors off. And we're still talking about it. I think
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: it blew people's mind to find out that Jesus said,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: go into all the world. And this is one of
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: the ways that we can touch people. If we just
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: open up and show them the love that we say
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: that we have, amazing things happen. And you kind of
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: fooled around and got your preacher on when you did yours. Amen.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: You got to quit. You're like a boy.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Thank you Bishop as always.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
