Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to World View Matters, discussing controversial issues, discerning current events,
- 0:10defending biblical Christianity, no topic, off limits.
- 0:16And now, here's your host, David Firazzo.
- 0:20Friends and family in Christ, thank you so much for joining us and we just love the fact
- 0:25that you guys are tuning in watching and sharing the podcast.
- 0:29I do want to mention some exciting news.
- 0:31We've got the website for the conference up and that is worldviewmattersconference.com.
- 0:39So you can check that out.
- 0:41We'll tell you more about it next week, but worldviewmattersconference.com.
- 0:48So when that's coming up May 1st and 2nd, so today's guest, it's good to have her back.
- 0:52I can't believe we haven't talked to Jack Marino Chen in a year or more, but the website
- 0:58Jackjacmarino.com, she's got a new book.
- 1:03It's coming out soon.
- 1:04We're going to talk about that and just kind of catch up with her, her YouTube channel.
- 1:09Look up Jack Marino Chen on YouTube and she's on Instagram, Facebook.
- 1:14Well, let's bring her in right now from the west coast or should I say left coast.
- 1:19Sorry, Jack.
- 1:20Good to see you.
- 1:21It's so good to be here and it's so good to be talking with you today.
- 1:24Thank you for having me.
- 1:26Thanks for coming back on and looking forward to catching up.
- 1:28It's been a while.
- 1:29We had you on first.
- 1:31I think the first time was with Doreen and let's see, oh my goodness, Jen, Niza.
- 1:39That's right.
- 1:41And so we had you on a couple of times by yourself after that and we haven't had you
- 1:45on in a while.
- 1:46So Jeff, before we do anything else, let's bring up the book.
- 1:50It's on Amazon friends.
- 1:52It's not out yet, but you can look up the information and pre-order.
- 1:56It's called ensnared and this is what we're talking about today, overcoming the darkness
- 2:01of the new age and occult with the light of God's truth.
- 2:07That sounds good.
- 2:08It sounds like a tall order for some, Jack.
- 2:10So first before we do anything else, you've been married now for four years.
- 2:14Just to me, I was telling you before we got on the podcast, it seems like you're still
- 2:17in newlywed.
- 2:18But I keep up with you on your Facebook.
- 2:21You are very active at your church.
- 2:23How are things going with you personally in that church?
- 2:26And of course, your marriage.
- 2:27Yes, that's very kind of you.
- 2:30Going really well, marriage is such a gift.
- 2:32As you know, it's a blessing.
- 2:33It's sanctifying for many different reasons, but I am just so thankful for my husband.
- 2:39I'm thankful that we get to serve at our local church, which has been a huge blessing
- 2:43to me, even as a single woman, just that was such a blessing to me being at my local
- 2:48church and growing there and then met my husband there.
- 2:51And we continue to be blessed by our church and serving there and our friends and our
- 2:56family and just learning how to be married and really, really enjoying it.
- 3:01So it's been a sweet few years.
- 3:04So you also are a worship leader or on the worship team.
- 3:09I know you are a good singer.
- 3:11Tell us a little bit about your music ministry, that side of things.
- 3:14Do you do that?
- 3:15You and your husband work together on that?
- 3:17Yeah, that's been so sweet.
- 3:18I remember the first time that I sang after I was saved.
- 3:22It was like, this is why I sing.
- 3:24It's so clear now why I have a voice at all.
- 3:26It's to glorify God and my husband and I'm on the worship team at our church.
- 3:31So that's always sweet when you get to serve together.
- 3:33And then my husband is just, he loves writing songs if he's left alone for any amount
- 3:39of time or he has any free time.
- 3:41He'll be at the piano just writing songs and the Lord has really gifted him with that.
- 3:45So it's been a joy for me to get to sing those songs and little, you know,
- 3:50little quote unquote, recording studio and it's that it's not much, but it's ours kind of thing.
- 3:55But we really enjoy just recording songs and getting to share them to hopefully encourage others.
- 4:00So every time I see either a video or something on, you know, something that you put out,
- 4:07and I see you flash some old images of you BC before Christ.
- 4:14It really is astounding to look at you now.
- 4:16And I know I've told you this before, I think every time I have you,
- 4:20when I tell you this, I mean, you're still glowing and that's the lead of the Lord truly.
- 4:24And it's just amazing.
- 4:25It just seems like completely different people that were looking at the old Jack and now the new.
- 4:31And really you are a new creation in Christ and you still are in that stage.
- 4:36I think I don't know how long that lasts.
- 4:38I think it's different for everybody depending on their background, how they got saved.
- 4:42And everybody has a testimony, but can you speak to that for a moment?
- 4:46There are a lot of people out there that know someone that really needs Christ and really needs to be saved.
- 4:52But they seem so far from God, like it's hopeless, but it's never hopeless.
- 4:57Talk to us a little bit about that before we dive into your book a little bit.
- 5:01Yes, that's such a good point.
- 5:02I know before I was saved, I really bought into the lie that I was too far gone to be saved.
- 5:07I thought I'd dug myself into a hole to keep to ever crawl out of.
- 5:10The darkness that I was in just seemed, it seemed too late for me.
- 5:14And I really believed that lie.
- 5:16And yet it wasn't that I cleaned myself up or did all these works, got myself right.
- 5:21And then the Lord saved me.
- 5:23But it was in my brokenness, in my despair, in that darkness that Jesus Christ saved me.
- 5:30And when I look back at those old photos, I mean, it's not just a picture to me.
- 5:34I remember how I felt.
- 5:36I remember who I was.
- 5:37I remember that that sickening feeling of just being so gut wrenchingly empty and hopeless.
- 5:43And then I look at my life now and it's so easy to forget that because Jesus Christ has
- 5:48redeemed my life.
- 5:49And so just encouraging if you're still alive, if your loved one is still alive, it is
- 5:53not too late for Jesus Christ to completely save you eternally and save your soul and
- 5:59to redeem your life.
- 6:01And how that plays out, the redeeming part looks different for everyone, for me, having
- 6:05a lot of drug and alcohol addiction, sobriety.
- 6:09It's such a blessing.
- 6:10I'm eight years sober now.
- 6:12And so I just, I can see a physical change as well as a spiritual change.
- 6:18So that's a blessing.
- 6:20And yeah, I'm just, I'm so amazed by who the Lord truly is.
- 6:25And it does seem when you're in it that it might be hopeless and you don't seem like
- 6:30anyone could love you, especially as much as Jesus loved us enough to die for us.
- 6:37You mentioned John 15 on your website, the light shines in the darkness and the darkness
- 6:41has not overcome it.
- 6:43And I want to read just the first sentence on your book page.
- 6:48And then Jeff, if you could go to Jack's website and scroll down right under where it says
- 6:54testimony, just just let that video play for B-roll where it says my testimony right
- 7:00there.
- 7:01Look at that.
- 7:02So I'm just going to read this.
- 7:03It just seems like you're not even the same person because you're not.
- 7:06It says Jack Marino Chan was a drug and alcohol addicted self described sorceress practicing
- 7:13ritual magic in a Masonic temple trapped by darkness, deception and hopelessness.
- 7:19She didn't think there was a way out until Jesus rescued her.
- 7:23And then you were into the new age as well.
- 7:26In past programs, we've talked to you about the growth of witchcraft and the occult.
- 7:33And in the public schools and the government schools and I wrote a little bit about that
- 7:36in past books on what they allow in the public schools and they were all into Harry Potter.
- 7:42And that just took things to a new level of interest in the occult and witchcraft.
- 7:46Can you speak to that a little bit, Jack?
- 7:48Yes, I can even speak to when I was in high school, you know, couldn't go back to the
- 7:52day.
- 7:53But everyone in the 2010s and in PE, we were doing yoga.
- 8:00I learned Namaste.
- 8:01I bowed to the light in you, meditating.
- 8:04And although it seems I didn't think that big of a deal then.
- 8:09And my mom would have probably been really embarrassed if she complained because it seemed
- 8:12like everyone else was fine with it.
- 8:14Those little seeds, those ideas planted in my head of yoga, of those those experiences
- 8:21that pseudo piece that I felt during those meditative states learning about, oh, what
- 8:26does it mean?
- 8:27The light in me bow so light in you that actually played into my later belief systems developing
- 8:33into the new age movement and then later into ritual magic in the occult.
- 8:38So it breaks my heart, the things that seem innocent or fun and yet are glorifying and
- 8:42glamorizing occult and new age practices in children in those formative years, those
- 8:47years.
- 8:48I mean, if we're adults, we can remember how much those formative years impact us deeply.
- 8:53And I can speak from my own experience and the experience of so many others, those little
- 8:57seeds planted of deception later grow into, they can grow into very, very ugly things.
- 9:02And I'm so thankful for people who have parents who know the Bible and can equip their kids
- 9:06with the Bible, which I didn't have.
- 9:09So that when they see something that is fake, that is opposed to the Bible, it's clear.
- 9:13But for me, it sounded beautiful.
- 9:16But what is that lure or I'm sure there's many different ones depending on where kids
- 9:21are coming from, but what generally that from your experience and you know a lot of people
- 9:26probably that were also practicing witchcraft and jumped into this?
- 9:30What lures them in is it promises of power, a different life, happiness, whatever.
- 9:37Tell us about what lures anyone, not just children or young people, but anyone into these
- 9:44practices, the occult witchcraft, things like that.
- 9:47Yes, that's a great question.
- 9:49And I really do think it comes down to, as the Bible talks about when we're lured away
- 9:53and entice by our own desires, by our own lusts, like the lust of the eyes and the lust of
- 9:58the flesh and the boastful pride of life, whether it's pride, a feeling special.
- 10:02If you have a supernatural experience, people who have those experiences are usually seen
- 10:06as having secret knowledge from the great beyond or it's, it seems like this great
- 10:10thing that, oh, you had the supernatural experience that kind of sets you apart.
- 10:14Or if you've had it, I can speak for myself, I really felt special and chosen and powerful.
- 10:20And it gave me the sense of pride and a desire to pursue more of those experiences.
- 10:25Or if it's just, there's so many different ways that in our sin, we lust after these
- 10:30things.
- 10:31And one way that I really see it played out for young people is, I mean, it is really
- 10:36enticing to think that you have the power to be like God.
- 10:39And a lot of the new age, the occult witchcraft tells you that you can manifest your own life.
- 10:45You can make your will be done.
- 10:47You can actually be the one in control.
- 10:49You have the pender at your own story.
- 10:51You are the powerful one and you deserve to have everything you've ever dreamed.
- 10:55And not only that, but you deserve to unleash the power within you to make it happen.
- 10:59And the occult can tell you how to do that.
- 11:01And you know, we're back in the garden with the serpent lying and saying that you can
- 11:05be like God and wanting us to be destroyed.
- 11:08But I really see that even with young kids this, I mean, we all suffer.
- 11:12We all struggle.
- 11:13We all have trials in our life.
- 11:15And to be promised this, oh, you can actually have the control to create your own life.
- 11:20And you just have to embrace this secret knowledge.
- 11:23Plus, it's glamorized and glorified in our culture is cool to be a wizard or a witch
- 11:28or a sorcerer.
- 11:29It's enticing in our sin.
- 11:32It's absolutely correct.
- 11:33It's glamorized and it is cool to rebel against God.
- 11:37And almost in us, you know, well, the Bible says there will be mockers and scoffers in
- 11:42the end time.
- 11:43And here we are in the last days.
- 11:46So is it also maybe in your experience from people or young people that you knew that
- 11:53were also involved in that do some do it for attention as I mean, that seems like one
- 11:58of the, maybe the bottom reasons, but I see anything that would give someone attention
- 12:03doing something different and getting into this.
- 12:06Is that an element of this too?
- 12:08Yes.
- 12:09I think I can definitely play into a desire to belong and a desire to be accepted this,
- 12:15this, I mean, apart from Christ and living in this world without peace, wanting to belong
- 12:19with wanting to have acceptance and then offered that if you rebel, then you can have
- 12:25that acceptance you're looking for.
- 12:26You'll be seen as cool or maybe, you know, with the psychic gifts, mediumship, these experiences,
- 12:32then you have this upper hand where you not only are accepted, but you're dependent on
- 12:36to provide secret knowledge to people that they can't get by other means, but you've
- 12:40been chosen as a special to relay psychic messages and insights or, or if you're a witch,
- 12:46you can read their cards and suddenly you have an in that feels real and in reality.
- 12:53It's a deception that is leading to your own destruction and it's heartbreaking, but it
- 12:58feels good to be accepted by the world and this world's corrupt system.
- 13:03And sadly, in this world's corrupt system, more and more, this occultism and new ageism
- 13:09is what is cool, is what is accepted because this world is opposed to God and it's really
- 13:14sad to see that playing out in our culture where, you know, back in the day, you had to go
- 13:19to a seek like an off the beaten path store to get tarot cards to get witchcraft books
- 13:24and things like that.
- 13:25It was maybe not taboo, but close to it.
- 13:28It was not super acceptable, but now, I mean, similar to the LGBTQ movement, sadly, it's
- 13:35cool to be different.
- 13:37It's cool to be a witch.
- 13:39It's cool to be a rebel against the system, against the patriarchy, against whatever it
- 13:44is so that you can be your own God and that you can define who you are in your own way.
- 13:52And it just breaks my heart because false identities that the occult and the new age give,
- 13:58they are, that's what they are, they're false and there's no real hope there.
- 14:03It's all an illusion and it leaves you dead.
- 14:06Well, all of this is false.
- 14:09It's a counterfeit.
- 14:10It's something, it's the opposite.
- 14:12It's anti-Christ.
- 14:13And in your description of the book ensnared, you use the word false when it comes to promises
- 14:20of connection, it's as break free from false promises of connection, identity, control,
- 14:27and be empowered to reach out to others caught in the deception.
- 14:32Identity is a big thing.
- 14:33I mean, the last several decades can't believe how that word and that idea identity is just
- 14:38so important to some.
- 14:39I mean, some people idolize identity, right?
- 14:42And we know that's with the LGBTQ and that's the culture we're living in now.
- 14:47Identity is so big.
- 14:48And in this case, we're talking about demonic influences.
- 14:52In fact, you, that's on the book description as well.
- 14:56These are all demonic elements behind occult practices.
- 15:00And whatever you want to touch on, Jack, because you mentioned numerology, crystals, tarot
- 15:06cards, Ouija boards, alien contact, witchcraft, and more, maybe we should go to something that
- 15:14we hardly ever hear much about, alien contact.
- 15:18Some people just say, no, no, no, no, that's, there's no such thing.
- 15:23Other people are all in, but we understand these are demonic spirits.
- 15:28Are they not?
- 15:29Yes, they are.
- 15:31And I'm glad they brought that up because ensnared.
- 15:34My heart was really to follow my life like a trail.
- 15:38And with pit stops at these really big moments in my life that, you know, it sounds crazy
- 15:44that I ended up in a Masonic temple in a black robe practicing ceremonial ritual magic.
- 15:51You know, people that sounds really hard to wrap your head around, especially wrapping
- 15:55your head around that someone could think that's good and right and pure even.
- 16:00But my desire was to show how it really was for me this slow burn, this gradual, um,
- 16:08floating, almost drifting into where I ended up there by the time I got to the Masonic
- 16:14temple.
- 16:15It didn't seem weird.
- 16:16It didn't seem scary.
- 16:17It seemed like home because I was so familiar with it.
- 16:19And starting in my childhood, my first really supernatural experience was with these lights
- 16:25in the sky that I thought were angels because that's the only concept that I had.
- 16:31I thought they were the deceased angels or spirits of my dad's friends who passed away
- 16:37from the effects of drug and alcohol addiction that I was close to.
- 16:42And then I learned about aliens.
- 16:43And that gave a framework for what I experienced that made a lot more sense.
- 16:48UFO, the alien thing, and that supernatural experience.
- 16:51It was a high for me.
- 16:53And I believe that I, they saw, I had a childhood sexual abuse.
- 16:58I believed that they saw all that.
- 17:01They knew the real me.
- 17:02They knew all the secrets that I had been hiding about that abuse and that they accepted
- 17:06me.
- 17:07And I from that experience really ran after supernatural experiences.
- 17:13I got, um, I had homosexuality in my life that I was pursuing in rebellion, thinking
- 17:19I could embrace this forbidden knowledge in different facets of rebellion.
- 17:23And then really throughout my life, I continued having these eight quote unquote alien experiences
- 17:30throughout my life since a child to where when I became an adult and those experiences
- 17:36became more outwardly evil in a quote unquote, abduction experience that was horrifying
- 17:43and terrifying and embarrassing.
- 17:45And, um, I, you know, if I had just had that, it would have clearly been scary, but because
- 17:51I embraced these supernatural experiences since my childhood and thought that they were
- 17:56my guides, that they were my friends, that they were imparting to me the knowledge that
- 18:02I am to embrace good and evil to gain power and all these teachings that are patently
- 18:07unbiblical and evil, um, by the time things got really weird, I had already been sensitized
- 18:14to them and refused to let it go and just kept telling myself, no, this, this must be
- 18:19good.
- 18:20Um, so it's really tragic how people get caught up in the alien, cool, exciting, supernatural
- 18:26experience.
- 18:27Wow.
- 18:28What a high.
- 18:29And then in reality, over and over again, we see when people have alien, quote unquote,
- 18:33contact experiences that the knowledge that they're imparted is actually just demonic
- 18:39foolishness to embrace evil.
- 18:43The spiritual realm is real.
- 18:47And I mean, people that read the Bible, Christians understand that.
- 18:51We talk about spiritual warfare a lot, but it is very real.
- 18:54We have an enemy of our soul that hates us.
- 18:57That's why I mean, you know, Jesus talked about that, Paul talked about that.
- 19:01Um, so you mentioned a lot of different things there and how people can be duped by this
- 19:06and then become familiar with it.
- 19:08And there's a little mystery involved in this too, because other than maybe the books
- 19:12that the witches and the, you know, Satan has put out, here's how you do this.
- 19:16Here's how you cast spells for the average person or young person that is not as exposed
- 19:21maybe as, as you were, there's some mystery to it that kind of maybe draws them in.
- 19:26Is there not?
- 19:28Oh, yes, let, you know, it's very enticing the seat, the, I don't know, that's why I try
- 19:33to be so careful in talking about it as well, because I get that in our flesh, that
- 19:37secret knowledge is so enticing and it sounds mysterious.
- 19:41But I mean, that is really the heart of the book as well is to break down and show on
- 19:48its face what these teachings are, what the experts in these fields say and how what
- 19:53it seems to be hidden behind all this code and allegory and initiations and secret
- 19:57knowledge is actually just the same old, nothing new under the sun, unbiblical, demonic
- 20:03lies, that is nothing new.
- 20:06And praise the Lord that he spoke to these things in the Bible that the gospel really
- 20:11is the answer that Jesus really is the only Savior that God really is holy and that he
- 20:16so loved the world that he sent his son Jesus Christ to live the life that we haven't lived
- 20:22perfectly without sin, even though he was tempted to go to the cross and die on behalf of
- 20:27sinners, bearing sin and the just punishment that we deserve in our place really died, really
- 20:33was buried, really rose on the third day and then ascended to the right hand of the Father
- 20:37as the only way for us to be saved and have eternal life as the only mediator between God
- 20:43and man.
- 20:44I mean, you search the world, you search the occult, you search in the darkest pits and
- 20:48you don't find salvation, you don't find true forgiveness, you don't find true redemption.
- 20:52It's in Jesus Christ alone that these things are found.
- 20:55So what sounds so enticing and new, whatever is just illusion, it's all a mirage that just
- 21:01leads to drops off in hell tragically.
- 21:05Yes.
- 21:06That's why it's important that you are out here proclaiming the truth of who Jesus is and
- 21:11standing up against this false system in this world.
- 21:15Amen.
- 21:16So, I mean, if fun, study to do friends, if you ever do a study on light and darkness,
- 21:22do a word search and just look up scriptures and how Jesus said what Paul said, what the
- 21:26Bible teaches about light and darkness, I just want to mention one verse that's on your
- 21:30website, another really good one, Colossians 1, 13, he has delivered us from the domain
- 21:36of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved son in whom we have redemption,
- 21:44the forgiveness of sins.
- 21:45I love that delivered and then transferred.
- 21:50The book is called In Snared, great title.
- 21:53Did you decide on that word?
- 21:56Did you get input from other people that knew your story?
- 22:00How did the title come about?
- 22:01Because it's a perfect word for what you're describing.
- 22:04Yes.
- 22:05I, man, I'm just so thankful for just how kind the Lord is to provide that.
- 22:11That was something that in talking back and forth, that was a name that was thrown out.
- 22:15And it just, it was so clear when I saw that that this, this is it.
- 22:19That is exactly what I thought I was ensnared.
- 22:21The Bible talks about being ensnared and I was trapped in this deception thinking it's
- 22:26light.
- 22:27And one thing I will say because when I was in that whole alien world, I, I met with
- 22:31a guy who used to travel with Stephen Greer, one of the top, you know, UFOologist and
- 22:37this guy was a scientist and he told me he can help me with the scary things I was going
- 22:41through and he was all about peace and love.
- 22:44And I recently, my husband and I had an opportunity to talk to him and warn him that what he thinks
- 22:48is light is truly demonic.
- 22:51And what's so hard is then, back then, what I believed in what this man believes is that
- 22:55know these, these beings are light and peace and good.
- 22:59And that's really because those definitions get redefined.
- 23:02So we're using the same words, but we have different definitions for love and peace and
- 23:06good.
- 23:07And everything gets flipped on its head, which is exactly what you speak up against in
- 23:10the culture that, and a lot of times we're using the same words, but the culture redefines
- 23:14things that have different definitions that are on biblical, and that breaks my heart
- 23:18because you get in stared in these things.
- 23:19So whether I'm speaking to anyone watching this, maybe you're in the occult, maybe you
- 23:23stumbled upon this, maybe you're in, which chapter you know someone who is, I understand
- 23:29that it might seem like light, but I completely agree with what David said, go and search
- 23:35the scriptures for what true light is because what this world and the occult plot is light
- 23:41is truly darkness disguised as light.
- 23:43And I think of second Corinthians 1114 that says Satan masquerades.
- 23:47He disguises himself as an angel of light, but that mask is Satan.
- 23:53Absolutely.
- 23:54He's a counterfeit.
- 23:55He's the author of lies, the author of confusion, the father of lies.
- 23:59And you said about that, the guy that you had known before that was in all this, light
- 24:05peace and good.
- 24:07And those are counterfeits because that's who Jesus is.
- 24:10Jesus is the light of the world.
- 24:11Jesus is our peace.
- 24:13We can have true peace in Christ, and Jesus is good.
- 24:16And even though he said only one is good, but God alone, but Jesus is God.
- 24:20So their counterfeits, anyone else masquerading as light, peace, good, we're running out
- 24:25of time, Jack, but I wanted to touch on one thing specifically.
- 24:28Some young people are kids or even adults go into things like weegee boards and they
- 24:32understand, okay, there's like kind of a creepy, dark or demonic element to that.
- 24:38But I've heard of, and I sadly know from a past church, Christian women that were into
- 24:43crystals.
- 24:44Can you speak to that for just a minute or two briefly, please?
- 24:48Yes.
- 24:49And I totally understand that crystals can get their beautiful, their accessible, their
- 24:55an easy way in the door, but when the ideology that comes with crystals is that they hold
- 25:00frequencies stronger than maybe we do, and because in the New Asia, it's taught everything
- 25:06is frequency.
- 25:07If you hold on to a crystal with a frequency of healing or good or prosperity, then your
- 25:12frequency will attune to the crystal's frequency, and then you'll be able to attract those
- 25:17things or heal yourself or people that use them for magical purposes to do magic.
- 25:22And it seems, you know, oh, what's so bad about me holding on to a crystal to heal my
- 25:28broken heart or help me with these things, but at the end of the day, sure you're not
- 25:32bowing down to the crystals, but if you're going to anyone or anything other than God
- 25:36for healing, for peace, or if you're trying to make your will be done manifesting your
- 25:41life's desires, you're practicing idolatry.
- 25:45And so that doesn't mean if you have crystals in your home because they're beautiful, that's
- 25:48wrong.
- 25:49That's a totally different story.
- 25:50But if you are using crystals as a way to heal yourself or to manifest your life or
- 25:54anything like that, that is idolatry.
- 25:59And it's a huge teaching in the occult.
- 26:01And you go to the deepest, darkest corners of the occult, you will find them using crystal
- 26:05surmagical practices because the belief systems behind that are demonic.
- 26:11Thank you.
- 26:12That was good.
- 26:13You've really condensed that and these can turn into idols, friends.
- 26:16And so just be warned, I mean, the last time we had you and I think we talked about yoga
- 26:20too.
- 26:22It's just what's wrong with exercise and stretching.
- 26:25Okay.
- 26:26Let's define what you're doing and anyway, we'll do that another time.
- 26:29Lord willing, we'll talk again about your book and snared.
- 26:32It's coming out, but people can pre-order that, friends.
- 26:34If you can do that while you're thinking about it right now, you can look it up on Amazon,
- 26:39Jack, Marino, Chan, look up and snared, or you can go to her website, jackmarino.com.
- 26:46There you are, beautiful child of God.
- 26:48Thank you so much for being on again with us.
- 26:51It's so great to catch up with you.
- 26:52I can't believe it's been as long as it has, but because I see you, I guess because I
- 26:56see you on either Instagram or Facebook, I see you and your husband or things you put
- 27:00out.
- 27:01So it doesn't seem like it's been as long, but our audience are going, yeah, where's
- 27:05she been?
- 27:06So thanks for all you do.
- 27:08Any closing thoughts real quick, just in 30 seconds, Jack.
- 27:11Thanks.
- 27:12Thank you so much for having me.
- 27:13I just want to encourage you.
- 27:14I'm so encouraged by you.
- 27:15I'm so encouraged by your faith and your boldness and your courage that the Lord has given
- 27:19you by his grace.
- 27:21So just keep on keeping on and everyone watching this.
- 27:24I am so thankful that the Lord has uniquely gifted him to be used in this way.
- 27:29And so if we could all just be praying for your ministry and your life and all the things
- 27:33God is doing in your life that he continues using you for his glory.
- 27:36Amen.
- 27:37Thank God bless you, sister.
- 27:38And good reminder, friends, pray for Jack when anyone in this ministry is a target of
- 27:43the enemy and there's warfare involved.
- 27:45And thank you again for your time.
- 27:47We really appreciate it.
- 27:48We'll do this again.
- 27:49God bless you, friends, as in as always, keep speaking the truth about things that matter.
