- 1:03So good to see you again.
- 1:05Welcome back to World View Matters.
- 1:06Hi David, nice to be back, thanks for having me.
- 1:10Yeah, I just want to just start off by just asking what's been going on with your life
- 1:15because you've had like the accident here and there and you've had your health battles
- 1:21before, of course, with chemo and everything you went through and God is sustaining you,
- 1:27but now these other little things are going on.
- 1:30And sometimes we think, well, it's spiritual warfare, but sometimes it's just life, you
- 1:34know, in this imperfect planet where we are in these bodies, but just share a little
- 1:38bit of what you've been going through lately.
- 1:42Yeah, so as you know, I was diagnosed in August of 2021 with stage 4 lung cancer, non-smoker,
- 1:50and after much testing, they put me on a target pill called Tigrasso, and I've been
- 1:56not on that ever since I take it once a day.
- 1:59And then in January of 2023, I started feeling funny, like not doing so well because I'd
- 2:04had a whole bunch of lung drains done about 40 of them.
- 2:07And I was doing well.
- 2:08And then I wasn't, so then I went on chemo therapy, someone on chemo since last May of 2023.
- 2:15And actually, most people complain about chemo, I actually feel really good on it.
- 2:19I don't have any nausea, I feel good on it, I have no problem with it whatsoever.
- 2:24So my doctor laughs at me because she's like usually most people might say, oh, I feel
- 2:29nauseous or I don't feel that good.
- 2:30And I said, no, I feel like I'm walking on water.
- 2:33Like Peter walking on water, I said, I feel good.
- 2:36So my chemo was held for the past eight weeks because I woke up in the middle of the night
- 2:42and my arm felt sore.
- 2:44And I thought, this is really weird.
- 2:46And I look at it and it looked like a pimple was on my arm and I'm thinking, this is
- 2:50like in the end of February.
- 2:52And I thought, why do I have a pimple on my arm?
- 2:54First of all, I'm older, I really don't get pimples, right?
- 2:57And it didn't look weird, it just looked weird.
- 3:01And to make a long story short, within a few days, it got huge.
- 3:05And it became an abscess, which I don't really know anything about abscessies.
- 3:09All I know is it's an infected, just a huge body.
- 3:13And it was probably this big.
- 3:16And the whole thing had to be insized drained.
- 3:18I mean, I went to the emergency room several times and it was painful.
- 3:23And so they held my chemo.
- 3:26And they said, well, because of wound healing, chemo causes you to have less wound healing.
- 3:34So they held my chemo for eight weeks.
- 3:35In the meantime, a few weeks after this happens with my arm, I was pretty tired one day.
- 3:40And I had come home from taking my car and to get it looked at if there was like an oil
- 3:44leak or something, which it wasn't.
- 3:46And I'm in the garage and my mom's aid had left.
- 3:50She had, she was working like 35 hours a week and ended up having some health issues
- 3:55herself.
- 3:56So I was desperately looking for aids for her.
- 3:59And I thought, I'm just going to be at the entrance to the garage and I'm vacuuming.
- 4:03And I tripped over this rolled up rug in the corner.
- 4:08And I was like, my ankle went right in and I thought, oh, no.
- 4:11And you know, I'm a higher physical therapist.
- 4:14So I knew right away.
- 4:15I thought, I hope it's not my ankle.
- 4:17Well, it wasn't my ankle.
- 4:18It was my foot and my left foot started hurting and I started icing it and so forth.
- 4:23And it wasn't going.
- 4:24And then I went to the grocery store two days later and I'm walking and walking, walking
- 4:28up the aisles and it just kept getting worse.
- 4:31And then the next day was church and I ended up going to the orthopedic urgent care.
- 4:37And the physician's assistant was like, I can't believe you're not crying.
- 4:42And I go, why would I be crying?
- 4:44And she goes, the top phone, she pulled it up on the x-ray.
- 4:46The top phone was going to the left and the bottom bone was going to the right.
- 4:49Oh, and it was complete severed.
- 4:52And I was like, wow, and I said, is this going to require surgery?
- 4:58And she said, no, but you're going to be in a cam boot, you know, which is a half boot for a while.
- 5:04So I've been in the cam boot for two months and I just had it react straight on Monday.
- 5:11And the doctor said probably one more month, but it's called a ballerina fracture.
- 5:16And no, I'm not a ballerina, but that's the position that a lot of arenas.
- 5:22I guess fracture, they're what?
- 5:24So yes, I've been going through that.
- 5:27Oh, my goodness.
- 5:28Now, I mean, I, what we were saying before we got on the program is people,
- 5:33everyone wants to hear about that.
- 5:34How you did that because everybody vacuums or everybody has vacuumed at some point.
- 5:39And you broke your foot, vacuuming.
- 5:42And so people want to know what to be careful for rolled up carpets, right?
- 5:45Is that over something?
- 5:47Yeah.
- 5:48I rolled, there was a rolled up in the corner in the garage and I tripped over it.
- 5:52And that's when my ankle turned.
- 5:54So it actually is the most common of the fractures in the foot, the fifth metatarsal.
- 5:59And the doctor said it's very, very common.
- 6:02And it's funny because my mom's a van driver when she goes for a lab set,
- 6:06she had the same exact thing, a ballerina fracture.
- 6:10Huh.
- 6:11Interesting.
- 6:12So I mean, we were planning on talking about this, but just your quick thoughts.
- 6:16A lot of people would chalk that up to, you're out there, you're a believer in Christ,
- 6:21you're well trained and educated, you're sharing the gospel.
- 6:25You've got an amazing biblical worldview and you're really ticking off the devil.
- 6:30You're ticking off the right, you know what I mean?
- 6:33The right, you know, entities.
- 6:35And so people said that's got to be spiritual warfare.
- 6:38But then other people in another camp might say, well, you know, I hurt myself all the
- 6:42time because I'm a clots or whatever, it's just life.
- 6:45Some people have diseases, some people have, you know, things at home or physical things.
- 6:49What's your quick thoughts on that?
- 6:51I mean, we're not going to spend a lot of time on that.
- 6:53I just thought I'd ask.
- 6:55Yeah.
- 6:56It's all right.
- 6:57You know, I think sometimes I have a tendency to take on too many things, even though
- 7:02it doesn't seem like I do because, you know, I'm retired right now, but I have a tendency
- 7:06to do a lot at once.
- 7:09And I think I should have listened to my body more and said, you know what, slow down,
- 7:12do it later.
- 7:14You know, I came home from doing a bunch of errands and taking my car and in everything.
- 7:19And truly, chemotherapy and my medicine does make me tired.
- 7:23So I do need more sleep and rest than I ever did before.
- 7:27So I have to adjust that and I have to say, okay, this is not maybe the pan I was two and
- 7:32a half years ago.
- 7:33I need to maybe take a break for half an hour and then go out and vacuum.
- 7:36But no, I was in hurry and wanted to get it done, you know.
- 7:40What would I attribute it to?
- 7:41Probably just poor planning on my behalf and not listening to my, my body, which God
- 7:46makes us hold beings, you know, physical, virtual, mental, emotional, everything.
- 7:55And sometimes it's, it's just saying slow down, you know, just slow down pan.
- 7:59And he slowed me down.
- 8:00I mean, he allowed it to happen because now I've been, you know, I've just had my leg
- 8:04up for a while and now I'm walking on it and so forth.
- 8:07And for the first month, it was so painful.
- 8:09I had to have it up in the air a lot.
- 8:11So it just is the way it is.
- 8:13But I ended up getting a lot, I, I've been working on a second book and I got quite
- 8:18a, you know, a bit going on that.
- 8:22So in that sense, he did slow me down and I'm more focused with that stuff again.
- 8:28So yeah.
- 8:29Well, it does say in Psalm 23, he, there are times when he makes us lie down in green
- 8:35and pastures, but here we are, a lot of us, you know, are in relatively good health
- 8:42and we're listening to you.
- 8:45You have a passion and a joy to share the gospel.
- 8:48And by the way, the book, friends, bridge of love, it is on Amazon, but it's also on
- 8:53Pam's website, which we will link to, I want to make sure you guys check it out.
- 8:59And we'll go, well, I just mentioned some table, the contents in a minute.
- 9:02Here we are hearing you and you just so countersally said, Oh, yeah, I've had however many
- 9:08lung drains, I want to make sure people know what that is.
- 9:11They literally, the drain fluid from your lung.
- 9:15Is that correct?
- 9:16Yeah.
- 9:17I had that done in 21 to 22.
- 9:20So initially you go to the hospital and you have what's called a thoracinthesis, which
- 9:26is you lean over this table and the interventional radiologist comes and puts a hole with a needle
- 9:33into your back and drains the fluid from your lung.
- 9:36So you really can't see what's going on, which I'm glad because I really don't want to
- 9:39watch it.
- 9:40And it goes into bad and, you know, it's, it's very painful, especially the longer it's
- 9:45been in there, it can become what's called laculated, which is stuck to the sides of
- 9:49your lung.
- 9:50And then it's extremely painful.
- 9:52So I had that done four times and then I, because it was so gray, like, I don't know if my
- 10:01lung is full, I couldn't tell.
- 10:03So the hospital had said they really thought it was best, um, razzle park, which is a cancer
- 10:08hospital to have a pleurex put in.
- 10:10And that's a small indwelling catheter.
- 10:12So I have surgery on that.
- 10:13It's just an outpatient procedure where you go in, they put a small catheter in, but it
- 10:16was extremely painful because they go through ribs.
- 10:20And that took probably a month to heal.
- 10:23And in the meantime, I slept in a recliner for nine months straight up and down because
- 10:28I could not lay in a bed because I couldn't breathe.
- 10:32And also because of the fact that after I had the surgery with the pleurex, it was extremely
- 10:37painful.
- 10:38So then the nurse would come out to the house every other day and drain my lung.
- 10:41And this went on for six months, but initially was every other day and then it went down.
- 10:46And it was scary.
- 10:47I mean, I'm not going to deny it.
- 10:48I'm a person that was always in good health, went to the gym, never had issues like this,
- 10:54could do whatever I wanted.
- 10:55And now I'm leaning over the kitchen table with a nurse, you know, draining my lung.
- 11:00And it was just horrifying.
- 11:04And honestly, the only thing that kept me kind of like grounded is my faith.
- 11:09You know, I just keep pleading, not pleading, but just saying, Jesus, you know, you're with
- 11:14me.
- 11:15Please help there to be very minimal fluid today.
- 11:18And I just kept praying and praying and sometimes it two or three in the morning, I would be
- 11:21calling in prayer hotlines because I couldn't sleep.
- 11:25And it was just, you know, things can get to you emotionally because it is.
- 11:29It's very scary to go through these things.
- 11:32And I'm very thankful for the Christian community because there, you know, it's, it's people
- 11:37all over the world.
- 11:38I mean, I had people, my one friend, Dr. Kama, she had friends calling me for a different
- 11:43areas of India and just praying for me.
- 11:46And I was, wow, you know, so they really do come together the body of Christ.
- 11:51I love the fact that we're all kind of, you know, family, we are family.
- 11:54We are.
- 11:55And we're not just because we're across the miles and different states, even in different
- 11:59countries, same, same God, same Holy Spirit, we are family.
- 12:05And in fact, not for this top, this show, but it's a different topic.
- 12:09We have to have that perspective and that frame of mind when it comes to our persecuted
- 12:14brothers and sisters in different countries because we've had such a reprieve here.
- 12:18And we've been so blessed to be in America.
- 12:21But that's again, that's for another show.
- 12:23But we are family are, we have in America here, if you're a Christian, we have dual citizenship.
- 12:29Our citizenship is in heaven as believers.
- 12:31We are positionally already there.
- 12:33But physically we are still here to do the work that God's called us to do, which brings
- 12:37us to Pam walk, which I've had on the show before and I'm inspired by you sister.
- 12:42I really am when I tend to start thinking, oh, you know, complaining about something in
- 12:47my life, I look at you and go, man, I don't know how she does it.
- 12:51But it has to be God and the strength that he provides and gives you.
- 12:55And before we got on the air, I asked what was on your heart.
- 12:58And can I share the scripture from Romans 12?
- 13:01Yeah.
- 13:02So this is what we're going to talk about a little bit often on today.
- 13:05In Romans 12, a starting in verse 11, it says, not lagging behind indiligence, fervent
- 13:12in spirit, serving the Lord, rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted
- 13:19to prayer, another translation says faithful to prayer.
- 13:24And I just want you to share whatever you would like to about that verse because God put
- 13:28it on your heart.
- 13:30Yeah, I just saw, I feel like the last month or two, it's been kind of like one thing
- 13:35after another with different afflictions between myself or just even trying to find
- 13:41aids for my mom or just anything.
- 13:45And just some personal things.
- 13:46And I just felt like he really put on my heart that verse about being joyful and hope
- 13:51in patient and affliction, specifically the patient in affliction because I think sometimes
- 13:56I'm not always patient.
- 13:57I know I'm not.
- 13:59And I always have to, like I said, even just the vacuuming just slow down and be patient
- 14:05with myself and also patient with others when they don't maybe get what I'm saying or
- 14:10just personality things or whatever, just being patient in affliction because whenever
- 14:18we go through life, I mean, the Bible says in this world, you will have trouble.
- 14:22You will have trouble.
- 14:24So the Lord already tells us that and we have to be patient in affliction.
- 14:30It doesn't mean we don't do anything.
- 14:32I mean, we pray, but we also act responsibly.
- 14:35And when we do that, I think that glorifies him because we're being patient.
- 14:40And like I said, I think he gave me that verse because, you know, sometimes I get frustrated
- 14:46and, you know, I'm like, okay, my foot is still not healed.
- 14:50And now it's going to be summer.
- 14:51And I'd like to go walking or I was supposed to go on a vacation at the end of April.
- 14:56I was going to see the ark and the creation museum in Kentucky.
- 14:59Yes.
- 15:00And, yeah, and they have got postponed down because it's a lot of walking.
- 15:04And I thought when they do be in a scooter.
- 15:07So I'm not think people can't go on scooters.
- 15:10But normally I walk so I would prefer to be able to walk.
- 15:14So I will go at a later date.
- 15:16And I thought, well, you know,
- 15:19I just have to be patient in affliction here because I can't change it.
- 15:24All I can do is pray that the Lord manifests his healing and that it will happen soon.
- 15:28And, you know, but yeah, that's the verse about being joyful and whole.
- 15:31Patient affliction and faithful in prayer.
- 15:36Yes.
- 15:37So it's so important to keep praying and not to stop praying because I remember one time I heard on a Christian TV show.
- 15:43The guy saying that he prayed for 35 years for his family to come to Christ.
- 15:4835 years.
- 15:49Because I was kind of complaining in my head, which I know it's not a good thing to complain.
- 15:55Because we're not supposed to be complaining.
- 15:56Lord, what is taking so long for so and so to get saved or become a believer.
- 16:00And then right away I turn on the TV and the guy's talking about 35 years.
- 16:04And I thought, he's patient.
- 16:06You know, I need patients.
- 16:09Yeah.
- 16:10So I'll never.
- 16:12That's Romans 12 12.
- 16:14We've got to take a brief pause. We're with Pam walk.
- 16:17We're going to talk more with her about other things.
- 16:20We've talked about the book before Bridge of Love and we'll touch on that.
- 16:24But I also want to ask her about some photos on her website when we come back on World View Matters.

- 17:36So Pam walk is our guest today at Pam.
- 17:39It's Pamela walk.
- 17:40The website is Pamela walk and the web.
- 17:43The last name, of course, W-A-L-C-K. Pamelawalk.com.
- 17:49So I want to talk to you about a photo of a woman we both knew.
- 17:54You got to spend some time with her in person.
- 17:57Me, she had me on her radio show several times Linda Penn, who is now with the Lord.
- 18:03Praise God.
- 18:04I'm a little jealous, to be honest.
- 18:06But anyway, so there's a photo of you and an interview.
- 18:11And tell us a little bit about we touched on this last time you were on.
- 18:16And that was, I think that was that was shortly after she went home, the beef of the Lord.
- 18:21So why did you decide to put this picture on your website?
- 18:26Well, Linda always meant a lot to me.
- 18:29She, she was a wonderful mentor.
- 18:32And she really had a zeal for Jesus.
- 18:35You know, she was always sharing the gospel Bible studies.
- 18:38She had this thing called death by chocolate at the church that I attended.
- 18:42I, you know, been attending for 20 some years.
- 18:44And there would be like 3000 women that would attend it.
- 18:47It was once a year is called death by chocolate.
- 18:49And it was all chocolate and cappuccinos and everything.
- 18:51It was a huge outreach to try to get the community in.
- 18:54And she just always had ideas, you know, to try to reach people for Christ.
- 18:59It was all her agenda was always the kingdom.
- 19:03You know, how can we grow people?
- 19:05How can we grow disciples?
- 19:06How can we multiply disciples?
- 19:08And when she started her radio program today's living hope.
- 19:12She had asked me to be on it.
- 19:13And I loved being on it.
- 19:14It was wonderful.
- 19:15And Linda was just, I don't know, she was such a light, you know.
- 19:19And I just, I'm sad that she's gone now because it just was so sudden.
- 19:24But at the same time, yes, like you said, I mean, she's with Jesus.
- 19:27We know that.
- 19:28And her husband, Ralph is still, you know, I think he moved from this.
- 19:33The area back to where his son is, but at the same time on, you know,
- 19:37I'm sure he's comforted in knowing that he will see her one day again.
- 19:41Yeah, she had a radio show today's living hope.
- 19:44I believe it was called and she did that for years.
- 19:47And that's how we got connected with her.
- 19:50There you are in the studio with Linda Penn.
- 19:53All right.
- 19:54Now with Jesus.
- 19:56I want to go over to your book.
- 19:58And again, it's on Amazon friends or you can go to Pamela walk.com.
- 20:03Just look at the table of contents.
- 20:05And I'm just going to pick out one or two or maybe you can share whatever you'd like.
- 20:09But just so many, you say 30 stories and you're not kidding.
- 20:13I mean, in the Isles of Walmart, you know what, let's just stop right there.
- 20:19Because everybody goes grocery shopping or we're in a department store or something.
- 20:24I know that's got to be about you sharing the gospel.
- 20:27So tell us about that one.
- 20:29That's chapter three in the Isles of Walmart.
- 20:33Okay.
- 20:34So this is kind of a girly girly one a little bit, but not.
- 20:38You know, just the beginning of it.
- 20:40Nothing was I went to the store to buy mascara.
- 20:43And, you know, it was almost closing time and I'm walking around and I'm looking at.
- 20:47There's like so many choices.
- 20:49This is many years ago.
- 20:50And there wasn't like a particular brand I used and I was just looking like Lord.
- 20:53Why is this so hard to just find a brand?
- 20:56There's like so many brands and all of a sudden and I know this sounds crazy.
- 21:01But I literally felt like the Holy Spirit said go witness to them.
- 21:06I was like, this has got to be my imagination.
- 21:09Well, I turned around and I had not like I was very focused on these mascara.
- 21:15The makeup and I turn around and there are a few Muslim women standing there and they're looking at perfume.
- 21:21And I thought wow, I did not see them at all because they must have came up after I was there.
- 21:26And I thought maybe that was the Holy Spirit.
- 21:28Maybe that was Jesus trying to tell me to talk to them.
- 21:31I think what am I going to talk to complete strangers about?
- 21:34So I came up with something.
- 21:36I just said, hi, how are you?
- 21:37What, you know, what kind of perfume you're looking for or whatever?
- 21:40We ended up in this conversation.
- 21:43And you know, I just said, oh, you know, we both have accents where you from.
- 21:47And the one was coming was visiting.
- 21:50And the other woman was attending the University of Buffalo, her husband was attending.
- 21:55And we ended up exchanging phone numbers.
- 21:58And we met a few times and we discussed the differences between the Quran and the Bible.
- 22:04And it was just like a, we had a friendship for about six months.
- 22:08And after that, it kind of dissipated because her husband was very busy and she had just had a baby.
- 22:14Maybe and so forth.
- 22:16And then the other sister had gone back to the country.
- 22:20But it just, it's just reminding me just about being obedient.
- 22:23And I don't mean every single thought that comes into your head is necessarily God.
- 22:26Right.
- 22:27It could just be, you know, your imagination.
- 22:29It could be anything.
- 22:30You could eat something funny one day and something pops into your head.
- 22:33But I turned around and I thought, well, there's an opportunity.
- 22:37So yeah, because I asked for opportunities, you know, I pray for opportunities to share the gospel.
- 22:43And it's.
- 22:46It is scary sometimes because you don't know what to say, especially, you know,
- 22:49they're like myself, when am I going to say to these two women that I don't even know,
- 22:53but I'm very glad I did because you don't know one day.
- 22:57You never know, you never know.
- 22:59And if we, we know the word of God, we know most everybody that's truly saved and born again,
- 23:06knows at least the basics of the gospel.
- 23:09And I mean, I'm looking, I'm pointing a finger back at me and saying, wow, help me pray for more opportunities.
- 23:16Because I think that's a prayer that God answers every time.
- 23:19And sometimes, you know, sooner than what we think to bring someone along our path.
- 23:24And may Lord, and just just ask the Lord for all of us watching and listening right now in Pamela and myself,
- 23:31that we would be sensitive to the Holy Spirit when he sends people our way.
- 23:36Please, Lord, we don't have a whole lot of time left.
- 23:39We don't know how much time we have left.
- 23:41So please.
- 23:44Other, yeah, other chapters with the Walgreens parking lot, rich and poor stubborn people,
- 23:52long haired Larry, a Mormon belief system.
- 23:55So I'm guessing you talked with a Mormon, right?
- 23:58Is that, is that true?
- 24:01Number chapter 23.
- 24:03Yeah, our neighbors across the road, they are not Mormon, but all of their relatives are.
- 24:09And I did not know this.
- 24:11And I went to, they have big holiday parties.
- 24:14So I went over there.
- 24:16And I don't even know how the subject came up.
- 24:18But something came up about, bring them, bring them young university.
- 24:22And I knew right away that that was Latter-day Saints.
- 24:25And I thought to myself, I just think everybody hears Mormon.
- 24:29And turns out it was because my mom says, yeah, they're all women.
- 24:32And I said, I didn't know this.
- 24:34So I ended up in a conversation with Max.
- 24:37And Max was curious.
- 24:40He and his wife, teachers.
- 24:42And he was curious about knowing more.
- 24:45And he did visit my church.
- 24:47But unfortunately, he visited during the daytime on a weekday, which is kind of unusual.
- 24:53Obviously, there was no church service going on.
- 24:57But the fact that he even stopped there and walked through it made you realize,
- 25:00well, he has some sort of, you know, thoughts going on in his head.
- 25:03And so Max and I would talk about the gospel.
- 25:06And we still talk occasionally, but I haven't seen Max in a while.
- 25:10So a lot of the stories that are in my book.
- 25:13Sometimes there's endings and sometimes there's not.
- 25:16You know, sometimes you don't know what happens after.
- 25:18And then sometimes you do.
- 25:19For instance, like, you know, you talk about long-haired Larry.
- 25:22I met him in.
- 25:23He was a homeless man.
- 25:26And I met him in Buffalo.
- 25:27Most of the people that lived in the Williamsville Buffalo area.
- 25:30I know not most of the people, but some of the people knew of Larry.
- 25:33He had hair all the way down to his feet.
- 25:35And yeah, it was really long.
- 25:38And he lived in the woods off the 290 expressway for years, like 20 some years.
- 25:44Very like his skin was real rough and hard.
- 25:47And, you know, I talked to him.
- 25:49I would talk to him because I didn't know if he was a Vietnam bat or something psychological going on.
- 25:53I shared the gospel with him multiple times.
- 25:57And he was found in a snowdrift frozen to death.
- 26:01And this is a few years ago.
- 26:03And the community was very upset because this is Buffalo.
- 26:05I mean, people are going to freeze.
- 26:07And I always wondered if one day that would be nice.
- 26:10And it was.
- 26:11So.
- 26:12So Pam, I'm guessing I don't have to guess.
- 26:15You probably have gospel tracks with you when you're out.
- 26:18Where do you get yours?
- 26:20Can you say really briefly?
- 26:21We're almost out of time.
- 26:22Livingwaters.com.
- 26:24Okay.
- 26:25Livingwaters.
- 26:26It's a perfect number in Ray Comfort's website.
- 26:28Yeah.
- 26:29Livingwater.
- 26:30Great ministry for gospel tracks.
- 26:32I love their.
- 26:33God.
- 26:34Yeah.
- 26:35And they have outstanding resources on there too.
- 26:38So Pam, one more question.
- 26:40Last one I promise.
- 26:41People can go to your website, Pamela Walk, W-A-L-C-K.
- 26:45Okay, friends.
- 26:46If God puts it on your heart to buy her book, then buy a couple of them and give them a way as a gift.
- 26:51So, there are three stories of true love and action sharing the gospel.
