- SO MY MOTHER INSTILLED IN ME
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:09.190
FAITH IN CHRIST.
00:00:09.220 --> 00:00:11.190
Announcer: COMING UP, SCOTT TURNER WENT FROM GROWING UP IN A BROKEN HOME
00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:14.190
TO PLAYING IN THE N.F.L.
00:00:14.220 --> 00:00:16.190
TO BECOMING A WHITE HOUSE APPOINTEE.
00:00:16.220 --> 00:00:18.280
- SO I SAW MY FAMILY UNIT BROKEN RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES.
00:00:19.010 --> 00:00:22.070
BUT IT WAS IN THAT MOMENT WHEN I SAW MY MOTHER AND FATHER SEPARATE
00:00:22.100 --> 00:00:25.060
THAT GOD PUT A DREAM AND A VISION IN MY HEART.
00:00:25.090 --> 00:00:27.270
I TOLD MY MOTHER, "ONE DAY I'M GOING TO PLAY IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:30.290
AND I'M GOING TO TAKE CARE OF YOU."
00:00:31.020 --> 00:00:32.290
Announcer: FINDING HOPE NEXT!
00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:36.010
00:00:42.190 --> 00:00:49.060
James: I AM SO GLAD.
00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:57.160
I'M THRILLED TO BE HERE.
00:00:57.160 --> 00:00:58.270
I'M NOT HAPPY THAT BETTY
00:00:58.270 --> 00:01:00.050
IS NOT SITTING HERE.
00:01:00.050 --> 00:01:01.050
YOU SAY, "WHY IN THE WORLD
00:01:01.050 --> 00:01:02.070
BECAUSE WE HAVE COME IN
00:01:03.130 --> 00:01:04.210
AT A TIME WE NEVER TAPE.
00:01:04.210 --> 00:01:05.260
LIKE KIND OF RIGHT
00:01:05.260 --> 00:01:07.010
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY.
00:01:07.010 --> 00:01:08.040
BECAUSE...
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:09.070
BY THE WAY,
00:01:09.070 --> 00:01:10.110
I'M JAMES ROBISON.
00:01:10.110 --> 00:01:11.110
WELCOME TO LIFE TODAY .
00:01:11.110 --> 00:01:12.130
AND I MISS BETTY
00:01:12.130 --> 00:01:13.180
BUT SHE IS SO GLAD I'M HERE.
00:01:13.180 --> 00:01:14.240
WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO TODAY
00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:15.290
IS SHARE AN ANSWERED PRAYER.
00:01:15.290 --> 00:01:17.060
I MEAN AN ANSWER TO A PRAYER
00:01:17.060 --> 00:01:18.130
THAT I'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR
00:01:18.130 --> 00:01:19.200
MORE THAN 20 YEARS
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:20.260
BECAUSE YOU KNOW THIS,
00:01:20.260 --> 00:01:22.010
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE US
00:01:22.010 --> 00:01:23.060
GIVE SHOES AND SMILES
00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:24.100
TO OVERLOOKED CHILDREN
00:01:24.100 --> 00:01:25.180
ALL OVER THE WORLD
00:01:25.180 --> 00:01:26.220
AND YOU'RE GOING
00:01:26.220 --> 00:01:27.260
TO BE EXCITED ABOUT IT.
00:01:27.260 --> 00:01:29.040
AND EVERY TIME YOU WATCH US
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:30.090
YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING TO TOUCH
00:01:30.090 --> 00:01:31.140
SOMEBODY THAT HAS A NEED.
00:01:31.140 --> 00:01:32.160
BUT FOR YEARS
00:01:32.160 --> 00:01:33.230
I'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR PEOPLE
00:01:33.230 --> 00:01:34.260
WHO GREW UP
00:01:34.260 --> 00:01:36.020
LIKE I DID WITHOUT A FATHER,
00:01:36.020 --> 00:01:37.250
GREW UP IN CHALLENGED AREAS
00:01:37.250 --> 00:01:39.140
WHERE THEY WONDERED
00:01:39.140 --> 00:01:40.260
IF ANYBODY EVER NOTICED.
00:01:40.260 --> 00:01:42.010
AND WE HAVE
00:01:42.010 --> 00:01:43.050
SO MANY COMMUNITIES HERE
00:01:43.050 --> 00:01:44.090
IN THE UNITED STATES,
00:01:44.090 --> 00:01:45.190
IN THE URBAN AREAS,
00:01:45.190 --> 00:01:46.240
IN THE INNER CITY,
00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:47.270
SO MANY THAT LIVE
00:01:47.270 --> 00:01:49.030
WITHOUT DAD IN THE HOME
00:01:49.030 --> 00:01:50.090
WHO REALLY FEEL LIKE
00:01:50.090 --> 00:01:51.190
NOBODY NOTICES.
00:01:51.190 --> 00:01:53.030
AND I'VE BEEN PRAYING, GOD...
00:01:53.030 --> 00:01:55.080
I MEAN THIS IS
00:01:55.080 --> 00:01:56.170
A 20-YEAR PRAYER,
00:01:56.170 --> 00:01:57.250
IT IS A FERVENT PRAYER!
00:01:57.250 --> 00:01:59.000
GOD, WOULD YOU PLEASE
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:00.120
MAKE IT POSSIBLE
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.030
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE
00:02:02.030 --> 00:02:03.070
BEEN BLESSED BY YOU
00:02:03.070 --> 00:02:04.130
WITH ENTREPRENEURIAL SKILLS,
00:02:04.130 --> 00:02:06.270
WHO CREATE WEALTH
00:02:06.270 --> 00:02:08.070
AND JOBS AND OPPORTUNITY,
00:02:08.070 --> 00:02:10.020
TO GO ON INTO
00:02:10.020 --> 00:02:11.100
THESE CHALLENGE AREAS
00:02:11.100 --> 00:02:12.210
AND BE WILLING TO TAKE A RISK
00:02:12.210 --> 00:02:15.010
TO INVEST IN THE FUTURE
00:02:15.010 --> 00:02:16.130
OF THESE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE
00:02:16.130 --> 00:02:18.040
TOO OFTEN OVERLOOKED
00:02:18.040 --> 00:02:19.160
AND SHOW THEM A FATHER,
00:02:19.160 --> 00:02:21.000
A MENTOR,
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:22.080
SOMEBODY THAT LOVES THEM
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:23.190
AND GET INVOLVED
00:02:23.190 --> 00:02:24.240
TO HELP THEM GET STARTED?
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:25.270
I'M TELLING YOU WHAT,
00:02:25.270 --> 00:02:27.030
I'M SEEING THE ANSWER
00:02:27.030 --> 00:02:28.080
TO THAT PRAYER.
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:29.130
AND I MET THE MAN,
00:02:29.130 --> 00:02:30.170
THE FOOTBALL PLAYER,
00:02:30.170 --> 00:02:31.250
THE N.F.L. FOOTBALL PLAYER,
00:02:31.250 --> 00:02:32.290
PLAYED FOR SEVERAL TEAMS,
00:02:32.290 --> 00:02:34.030
DIDN'T PLAY FOR DALLAS,
00:02:34.030 --> 00:02:35.070
DEAR GOD, FORGIVE DALLAS
00:02:35.070 --> 00:02:36.130
FOR NOT GETTING HIM
00:02:36.130 --> 00:02:37.220
BUT I'M TELLING YOU,
00:02:37.220 --> 00:02:38.280
WHEN I FOUND OUT
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:40.070

00:02:45.140 --> 00:02:46.260
WAS SUDDENLY SENT BY GOD
00:02:46.260 --> 00:02:48.280
RIGHT INTO THE ROOM
00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:50.140

00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.290

00:03:10.100 --> 00:03:11.150

THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY.
00:03:23.090 --> 00:03:24.140
WHY WOULD YOU GO TO
00:03:24.140 --> 00:03:25.190
THE TROUBLE OF REARRANGING
00:03:25.190 --> 00:03:26.240

00:03:29.060 --> 00:03:30.110
I'M CURIOUS ABOUT THAT.
00:03:30.110 --> 00:03:31.160
Scott: WELL, IT'S YOU!
00:03:31.160 --> 00:03:32.230

00:03:35.090 --> 00:03:36.130
AND YOU UNDERSTOOD THAT.
00:03:36.130 --> 00:03:37.160
Scott: YES, SIR.
00:03:37.160 --> 00:03:38.180
BECAUSE I BELIEVE
00:03:38.180 --> 00:03:40.020
THAT COULD REVOLUTIONIZE
00:03:41.090 --> 00:03:42.110
OUR COUNTRY.
00:03:42.110 --> 00:03:43.190
NUMBER ONE,
00:03:43.190 --> 00:03:44.290
BEING A BELIEVER
00:03:44.290 --> 00:03:46.070
THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:49.240
THAT WE GET THIS STORY,
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.060
AND WHAT'S GOING ON RIGHT NOW
00:03:52.060 --> 00:03:53.200

WHO HAVE THE SAME HEART,
00:03:56.070 --> 00:03:57.150
AND EVEN THOSE WHO MAY NOT
00:03:57.150 --> 00:03:58.200
EVEN HAVE THAT HEART YET,
00:03:58.200 --> 00:04:00.050
BUT AFTER HEARING
00:04:00.050 --> 00:04:01.120
WHAT'S GOING ON THEY WILL.
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:02.220
AND SO I WANT TO DO
00:04:02.220 --> 00:04:03.290
EVERYTHING WE COULD
00:04:03.290 --> 00:04:05.080

00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:06.130
James: I WANT YOU TO SHARE
00:04:07.170 --> 00:04:08.180
A LITTLE OF YOUR TESTIMONY
00:04:08.180 --> 00:04:09.240
BUT TELL OUR VIEWERS

THE LEADER OF THIS COUNCIL
00:04:53.260 --> 00:04:55.010

DOING AMAZING THINGS.
00:04:56.080 --> 00:04:57.140
James: DON'T YOU BELIEVE THIS
00:04:57.140 --> 00:04:58.240
CAN GIVE PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T
00:04:58.240 --> 00:04:59.290
THINK ANYBODY CARED,
00:04:59.290 --> 00:05:01.070
GIVE THEM HOPE
00:05:01.070 --> 00:05:02.110
AND OPPORTUNITY,
00:05:02.110 --> 00:05:03.170
AND THE ENTREPRENEURIAL MIND
00:05:03.170 --> 00:05:05.280
UNDERSTANDS A RISK.
00:05:05.280 --> 00:05:07.130
BUT BECAUSE OF THE OVERSIGHT
00:05:07.130 --> 00:05:09.020
THAT'S GOING INTO THIS
00:05:09.020 --> 00:05:10.150
FROM WASHINGTON,
00:05:10.150 --> 00:05:12.010
FROM THE WHITE HOUSE,
00:05:12.010 --> 00:05:13.130
PROPER OVERSIGHT THEY'RE
00:05:13.130 --> 00:05:14.210
GOING TO HAVE LESS RISK
00:05:14.210 --> 00:05:16.240
BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO KNOW
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:18.100
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
00:05:18.100 --> 00:05:19.240
AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACTUALLY DO
00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:20.280
WHAT THEY GO IN THERE TO DO
00:05:20.280 --> 00:05:22.060
AND HELP THE PEOPLE.
00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:23.170
YOU SEE THIS AS CHANGING
00:05:23.170 --> 00:05:24.250
THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE
00:05:24.250 --> 00:05:26.080
AND THEN SUDDENLY FINDING
00:05:26.080 --> 00:05:27.200
THEY MAY NOT HAVE A FATHER
00:05:27.200 --> 00:05:29.040
BUT THEY'VE GOT A MENTOR
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:30.150
REPRESENTING A FATHER'S HEART
00:05:30.150 --> 00:05:31.250
WHICH YOU'RE DOING ALSO,
00:05:31.250 --> 00:05:33.080
DR. CARSON DOES,
00:05:33.080 --> 00:05:34.200
BUT THEY'RE GOING TO THEN SEE
00:05:34.200 --> 00:05:36.010
THAT THEY CAN ACTUALLY
00:05:36.010 --> 00:05:37.110
FIND OPPORTUNITY,
00:05:37.110 --> 00:05:38.170
CREATE OPPORTUNITY
00:05:38.170 --> 00:05:39.260
AND MAYBE CREATE
00:05:39.260 --> 00:05:41.040
THEIR OWN WAY OUT
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:42.110
OF LET'S SAY THE CHALLENGES
00:05:42.110 --> 00:05:43.150
THEY'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING
00:05:43.150 --> 00:05:44.200
ALL THEIR LIFE.
00:05:44.200 --> 00:05:45.230
Scott: ABSOLUTELY.
00:05:45.230 --> 00:05:47.000
THAT'S THE HEART.
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:48.100
THE SPIRIT OF THIS
00:05:48.100 --> 00:05:49.170
IS TO BRINGING REVITALIZATION
00:05:49.170 --> 00:05:50.260
AND REAL TRANSFORMATION
00:05:50.260 --> 00:05:52.070
TO DISTRESSED COMMUNITIES
00:05:52.070 --> 00:05:53.140
IN AMERICA.
00:05:53.140 --> 00:05:54.220
AND OFTENTIMES THE PRESIDENT,
00:05:54.220 --> 00:05:55.280
DR. CARSON AND OTHERS TALK
00:05:55.280 --> 00:05:57.050
ABOUT THE FORGOTTEN PEOPLE.
00:05:57.050 --> 00:05:58.100
THOSE THAT LIVE
00:05:58.100 --> 00:05:59.160
IN THE DISTRESSED UNDERSERVED
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:02.040
COMMUNITIES OF AMERICA
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:03.120
WHERE THERE HASN'T BEEN
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:04.210
A LOT OF INVESTMENT
00:06:04.210 --> 00:06:06.000
IN DECADES.
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:07.100
AND EVEN WITH
00:06:07.100 --> 00:06:08.160
THE SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WE HAVE
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:09.220
IN OUR GOVERNMENT SYSTEM THAT
00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:11.130
DOESN'T INCENTIVIZE PEOPLE
00:06:11.130 --> 00:06:13.110
TO MOVE FORWARD.
00:06:13.110 --> 00:06:14.160
IT DOESN'T INCENTIVIZE PEOPLE
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:15.190
TO WORK HARD AND GET RAISES;
00:06:15.190 --> 00:06:17.280
IN PARTICULAR,
00:06:17.280 --> 00:06:19.000
IF YOU'RE ON
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:20.050
GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE BECAUSE
00:06:20.050 --> 00:06:21.100
THEN YOUR RENT GOES UP AND
00:06:21.100 --> 00:06:22.150
THEN THERE'S NO MOTIVATION.
00:06:22.150 --> 00:06:23.200
THERE'S NO MOTIVATION
00:06:23.200 --> 00:06:24.260
TO HAVE A MOTHER AND A FATHER
00:06:24.260 --> 00:06:25.290
IN THE HOUSE BECAUSE NOW
00:06:25.290 --> 00:06:27.020
YOU DON'T RECEIVE
00:06:27.020 --> 00:06:28.060
THE SAME SUBSIDY.
00:06:28.060 --> 00:06:29.070
SO THAT SYSTEMIC PROBLEM
00:06:29.070 --> 00:06:30.080
HAS TO BE BROKEN.
00:06:30.080 --> 00:06:31.080
James: IT DOES.
00:06:31.080 --> 00:06:32.090
IT'S KEEPING THOSE PEOPLE
00:06:32.090 --> 00:06:33.130
IN BONDAGE.
00:06:33.130 --> 00:06:34.170
IT IS A WORSE FORM
00:06:34.170 --> 00:06:35.210
TO FIND ONESELF IN
00:06:35.210 --> 00:06:36.220
THAN SLAVERY ITSELF.
00:06:36.220 --> 00:06:37.240
THEY'RE IN TOTAL BONDAGE,
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.080
SUBJECT TO A HIGHER POWER THAT
00:06:39.080 --> 00:06:40.120
NEVER LETS THEM GO ANYWHERE
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:41.190
AND THEY'VE NEVER
00:06:41.190 --> 00:06:43.030
BECOME PRODUCTIVE.
00:06:43.030 --> 00:06:44.130
I WANT YOU TO TELL US
00:06:44.130 --> 00:06:45.230
A LITTLE ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY.
00:06:45.230 --> 00:06:47.000
YOU PLAYED FOR SEVERAL
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:48.060
FOOTBALL TEAMS --
00:06:48.060 --> 00:06:49.130
NAME SOME OF THE N.F.L. TEAMS
00:06:49.130 --> 00:06:50.260
YOU PLAYED FOR.
00:06:50.260 --> 00:06:52.020
Scott: SO I GOT DRAFTED
00:06:52.020 --> 00:06:53.120
BY THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS.
00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:54.170
James: OH NO!
00:06:54.170 --> 00:06:55.230
Scott: I COULD HAVE
00:06:55.230 --> 00:06:56.260
GOT DRAFTED BY THE COWBOYS
00:06:56.260 --> 00:06:57.290
BUT WE'VE ALREADY HAD
00:06:57.290 --> 00:06:59.010
THAT CONVERSATION.
00:06:59.010 --> 00:07:00.060
WE TALKED ABOUT IT
00:07:00.060 --> 00:07:01.110
BUT WE'RE GOOD.
00:07:01.110 --> 00:07:02.160
James: YOU TOLD JERRY
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:03.170
YOU WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE
00:07:03.170 --> 00:07:04.180
A PLANE TICKET,
00:07:04.180 --> 00:07:05.190
Scott: I'M RIGHT HERE.
00:07:06.220 --> 00:07:07.230
SO I GOT DRAFTED
00:07:07.230 --> 00:07:08.260
BY THE REDSKINS
00:07:08.260 --> 00:07:09.280
AND ALSO PLAYED
00:07:09.280 --> 00:07:11.010
FOR THE SAN DIEGO CHARGERS
00:07:11.010 --> 00:07:12.030
AND THE DENVER BRONCOS
00:07:12.030 --> 00:07:13.060
SO GOD GAVE ME NINE YEARS
00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:15.150
IN THE N.F.L.
00:07:15.150 --> 00:07:16.170
I WAS THE SEVENTH ROUND
00:07:16.170 --> 00:07:17.210
DRAFT PICK.
00:07:17.210 --> 00:07:18.210
I WASN'T EXPECTED
00:07:18.210 --> 00:07:19.210
TO GET DRAFTED,
00:07:19.210 --> 00:07:20.260
WASN'T EXPECTED TO MAKE IT,
00:07:20.260 --> 00:07:22.050
AND PARTICULARLY, THAT LONG.
00:07:22.050 --> 00:07:24.130
BUT I HAVE A STORY OF COMING
00:07:24.130 --> 00:07:26.170
FROM A BROKEN HOME.
00:07:26.170 --> 00:07:28.280
I LOVE MY MOTHER AND MY FATHER
00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:30.250
BUT THEIR MARRIAGE WAS BROKEN.
00:07:30.250 --> 00:07:33.070
THERE WAS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE,
00:07:33.070 --> 00:07:36.070
THERE WAS ALCOHOLISM.
00:07:36.070 --> 00:07:37.140
THEY WERE YOUNG TEENAGERS
00:07:37.140 --> 00:07:39.100
THAT GOT MARRIED
00:07:39.100 --> 00:07:40.120
AND THEY STAYED MARRIED
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:41.180
FOR TEN YEARS;
00:07:41.180 --> 00:07:42.230
UNFORTUNATELY
00:07:42.230 --> 00:07:43.260
THEY WERE DIVORCED.
00:07:43.260 --> 00:07:45.030
SO I SAW MY FAMILY UNIT
00:07:45.030 --> 00:07:46.080
BROKEN RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES.
00:07:46.080 --> 00:07:48.090
BUT IT WAS IN THAT MOMENT
00:07:48.090 --> 00:07:49.130
WHEN I SAW MY MOTHER
00:07:49.130 --> 00:07:50.160
AND FATHER SEPARATE
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:51.160
THAT GOD PUT A DREAM
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:52.200
AND A VISION IN MY HEART.
00:07:52.200 --> 00:07:54.110
I TOLD MY MOTHER.
00:07:54.110 --> 00:07:55.130
I SAID, "ONE DAY
00:07:55.130 --> 00:07:56.160
I'M GOING TO PLAY IN THE
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:57.190
NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
00:07:57.190 --> 00:07:58.230
AND I'M GOING
00:07:58.230 --> 00:07:59.270
TO TAKE CARE OF YOU."
00:07:59.270 --> 00:08:01.060
SHE SAID, "YOU CAN DO IT."
00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:02.120
SHE SAID, "TRUST GOD."
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:03.180
SO MY MOTHER INSTILLED IN ME
00:08:03.190 --> 00:08:06.190
FAITH IN CHRIST.
00:08:06.190 --> 00:08:08.130
I ACCEPTED CHRIST
00:08:08.130 --> 00:08:09.190
AT 13 YEARS OLD
00:08:09.190 --> 00:08:10.250
AT MOUNT PLEASANT
00:08:10.250 --> 00:08:11.280
MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH
00:08:11.280 --> 00:08:13.090
AND WAS BAPTIZED
00:08:13.090 --> 00:08:14.200
AND HAVE NEVER LOOKED BACK.
00:08:14.200 --> 00:08:16.020
GOD BROUGHT MEN IN MY LIFE
00:08:16.020 --> 00:08:18.000
ALONG THE WAY
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.080
THAT DISCIPLED ME
00:08:20.080 --> 00:08:21.170
AND THAT MENTORED ME
00:08:21.170 --> 00:08:22.290
AND THAT CHALLENGED ME
00:08:22.290 --> 00:08:24.100
AT THE RIGHT TIMES
00:08:24.100 --> 00:08:25.190
IN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE,
00:08:25.190 --> 00:08:27.080
AND IN THE PROS.
00:08:27.080 --> 00:08:28.120
AND THEN WITH DR. JACK GRAHAM
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:30.000
BEING MY PASTOR NOW,
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:31.060
AND DAVID SOTO
00:08:31.060 --> 00:08:32.090
FROM SAN DIEGO,
00:08:32.090 --> 00:08:34.030
AND PASTOR BRETT FULLER;
00:08:34.030 --> 00:08:35.120
SO THESE MEN
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:36.180
HELPED DISCIPLE ME;
00:08:36.180 --> 00:08:37.290
AND DARRELL GREEN
00:08:37.290 --> 00:08:39.020
AND TIM JOHNSON
00:08:39.020 --> 00:08:40.070
AND ON AND ON --
00:08:40.070 --> 00:08:41.120
AENEAS WILLIAMS.
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:42.150
SO WITH THAT
00:08:42.150 --> 00:08:44.010
GOD HAS BEEN PREPARING ME.
00:08:44.010 --> 00:08:46.090
AND MY FATHER TAUGHT ME
00:08:46.090 --> 00:08:47.210
TO HAVE GREAT WORK ETHIC,
00:08:47.210 --> 00:08:50.060
TO HAVE A SENSE OF PRIDE
00:08:50.060 --> 00:08:52.130
IN WORKING HARD TO ACHIEVE
00:08:52.130 --> 00:08:54.080
AND TO EARN WHAT YOU WANT.
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.290
SO MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME FAITH,
00:08:56.290 --> 00:08:58.050
MY FATHER TAUGHT ME
00:08:58.050 --> 00:08:59.120
WORK ETHIC, AND THEN GOD
00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:00.160
PUT THE MEN IN MY LIFE
00:09:00.160 --> 00:09:01.210
TO TEACH ME SPIRITUALLY
00:09:01.210 --> 00:09:03.080
AND GIVE ME
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:04.180
A STRONG FOUNDATION.
00:09:04.180 --> 00:09:07.080
THE GREATEST PART OF THAT
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:09.100
IS THAT I GOT TO
00:09:09.100 --> 00:09:10.150
PORTRAY THOSE SKILLS
00:09:10.150 --> 00:09:11.200
AT SPRING CREEK BARBECUE
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:14.120
IN RICHARDSON, TEXAS.
00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:15.200
I WAS A DISHWASHER.
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:16.290
WITH ALL THE FAITH
00:09:16.290 --> 00:09:18.180
THAT GOD GAVE ME,
00:09:18.180 --> 00:09:19.210
I STAYED IN THAT DISH ROOM
00:09:19.210 --> 00:09:20.260
WITH MY FRIENDS RIDICULING ME,
00:09:20.260 --> 00:09:23.070
LAUGHING AT ME,
00:09:23.070 --> 00:09:24.130
LOOKING IN THE WINDOW SAYING,
00:09:24.130 --> 00:09:25.170
"HEY! WE'RE GOING OUT.
00:09:25.170 --> 00:09:26.220
YOU'RE WASHING DISHES."
00:09:26.220 --> 00:09:28.060
BUT IN MY HEART OF HEARTS
00:09:28.060 --> 00:09:29.160
I KNOW GOD WAS SAYING,
00:09:29.160 --> 00:09:30.180
"DON'T DESPISE THE SMALL THING
00:09:30.180 --> 00:09:32.270
THE LITTLE THINGS I HAVE YOU."
00:09:32.270 --> 00:09:35.090
SO WHEN I WENT TO
00:09:35.090 --> 00:09:36.230
THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS
00:09:36.230 --> 00:09:39.180
I WASN'T HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER
00:09:39.180 --> 00:09:41.110
AS A RECRUIT
00:09:41.110 --> 00:09:42.250
GOING TO THE N.F.L.
00:09:42.250 --> 00:09:44.270
BUT ILLINOIS HAD A STADIUM
00:09:44.270 --> 00:09:47.020
CALLED MEMORIAL STADIUM,
00:09:47.020 --> 00:09:49.030
AND BY THAT TIME
00:09:49.030 --> 00:09:50.140
I'M 23 YEARS OLD
00:09:50.140 --> 00:09:52.190
AND GOD HAD BEEN SENDING
00:09:52.190 --> 00:09:54.000
THESE MEN TO DISCIPLE ME.
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:55.110
I HAD BEEN THROUGH
00:09:55.110 --> 00:09:56.180
A LOT OF HARDSHIP AS FAR
00:09:56.180 --> 00:09:57.250
AS MY CAREER AT ILLINOIS,
00:09:57.250 --> 00:09:59.100
NOT BEING ABLE TO GET
00:09:59.100 --> 00:10:00.200
ON THE FIELD FOR THREE YEARS.
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:02.030
I WAS A FULL TIME STARTER.
00:10:02.030 --> 00:10:03.040
THEN STARTED FINALLY
00:10:03.040 --> 00:10:04.260
MY SENIOR YEAR
00:10:04.260 --> 00:10:06.010
AT A POSITION I NEVER PLAYED.
00:10:06.010 --> 00:10:07.060
ALL MY LIFE
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:09.160
AND NOW I'M A CORNER
00:10:09.160 --> 00:10:10.210
MY SENIOR YEAR.
00:10:10.210 --> 00:10:11.260
SO HERE COMES
00:10:11.260 --> 00:10:13.010
THE N.F.L. COMBINE.
00:10:13.010 --> 00:10:14.050
THEY INVITE 300 PLAYERS
00:10:15.140 --> 00:10:16.170
TO THE COMBINE.
00:10:16.170 --> 00:10:17.210
I WAS A STARTER ON THE DEFENSE
00:10:17.210 --> 00:10:18.270
BUT I DIDN'T GET INVITED.
00:10:18.270 --> 00:10:20.010
I'M LIKE, I KNOW
00:10:20.010 --> 00:10:21.060
I'M SUPPOSED TO GET INVITED.
00:10:21.060 --> 00:10:22.150
RIGHT?
00:10:22.150 --> 00:10:23.220
AND ALL OF MY FRIENDS STARTED
00:10:23.220 --> 00:10:24.240
GETTING THE INVITATIONS
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.240
IN THE MAILBOXES.
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:26.240
AND I'M LOOKING
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:27.250
IN THE MAILBOX FOR MINE,
00:10:27.250 --> 00:10:28.260
I NEVER GET IT!
00:10:28.260 --> 00:10:30.000
YOU KNOW SOMETIMES
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.010
WE LOOK FOR THINGS IN LIFE
00:10:31.010 --> 00:10:32.050
AND THEY NEVER SHOW UP.
00:10:32.050 --> 00:10:33.090
AND THAT'S WHY OUR FAITH
00:10:33.090 --> 00:10:34.130
IN CHRIST HAS TO KICK IN
00:10:34.130 --> 00:10:35.160
BECAUSE WE WALK BY FAITH
00:10:35.160 --> 00:10:36.190
AND NOT BY SIGHT.
00:10:36.190 --> 00:10:37.220
I DIDN'T SEE AN INVITATION
00:10:37.220 --> 00:10:38.250
BUT I SAW GOD AND I WENT
00:10:38.250 --> 00:10:40.010
OVER TO THEIR STADIUM.
00:10:40.010 --> 00:10:41.050
I STARTED RUNNING STADIUM
00:10:41.050 --> 00:10:42.060
STEPS BY MYSELF IN THE COLD
00:10:42.060 --> 00:10:43.110
IN CHAMPAGNE, ILLINOIS
00:10:43.110 --> 00:10:44.190
BECAUSE I KNEW THE VISION
00:10:44.190 --> 00:10:46.040
THAT GOD GAVE ME
00:10:46.040 --> 00:10:47.140
THAT HE WOULD REVEAL IT TO ME
00:10:47.140 --> 00:10:48.220
AND THAT IT WOULD COME TO PASS
00:10:48.220 --> 00:10:50.040
IF I TRUSTED HIM.
00:10:50.040 --> 00:10:51.100
WELL, LONG STORY SHORT
00:10:51.100 --> 00:10:52.190
22 TEAMS CAME TO MY SCHOOL
00:10:52.190 --> 00:10:55.150
FOR A PRO DAY
00:10:55.150 --> 00:10:57.070
AND THEY ALLOWED US
00:10:57.070 --> 00:10:58.120
TO RUN THE 40-YARD DASH.
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.030
WHEN I STOOD UP TO THE LINES
00:11:00.030 --> 00:11:01.090
THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW MY NAME.
00:11:01.180 --> 00:11:04.180
HAVE YOU EVER FELT
00:11:04.180 --> 00:11:05.260
OBSCURE BEFORE?
00:11:05.260 --> 00:11:06.290
INVISIBLE?
00:11:06.290 --> 00:11:08.150
I STEPPED UP TO THAT LINE
00:11:08.150 --> 00:11:09.230
AND I SAID,
00:11:09.230 --> 00:11:10.290
"I DON'T SEE 22 MEN,
00:11:10.290 --> 00:11:12.090
I SEE 22 STOP WATCHES."
00:11:12.090 --> 00:11:14.190
AND ALL OF THESE VISIONS
00:11:14.190 --> 00:11:15.260
FROM MY CHILDHOOD
00:11:15.260 --> 00:11:17.000
AND WORKING HARD
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:18.000
AND THE VICTORIES
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:19.000
AND THE DEFEAT,
00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:20.020
AT THAT MOMENT,
00:11:20.020 --> 00:11:21.040
AT THAT TIME ON THAT LINE
00:11:21.040 --> 00:11:22.060
I LOOKED DOWN THERE
00:11:22.060 --> 00:11:23.080
AND I SAID, "I'M GOING TO GET
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:24.100
DOWN THERE AS FAST AS I CAN,
00:11:24.100 --> 00:11:25.120
FROM HERE TO THERE
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.140
AS FAST AS I CAN."
00:11:26.140 --> 00:11:27.160
I TOOK OFF.
00:11:27.160 --> 00:11:28.180
MAN, I'M RUNNING.
00:11:28.180 --> 00:11:29.200
AND I CROSSED THE FINISH LINE
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:30.230
AND ALL I HEAR THEM SAYING
00:11:30.230 --> 00:11:31.250
IS, "WHOO!"
00:11:31.250 --> 00:11:33.070
[Laughter]
00:11:33.070 --> 00:11:34.150
THEY LOOKED AT THEIR WATCH
00:11:34.150 --> 00:11:35.220
AND THEY WERE LIKE 4.22,
00:11:35.220 --> 00:11:37.220
4.24
00:11:37.220 --> 00:11:39.110
AND THEY WERE LIKE, "SON,
00:11:39.110 --> 00:11:40.170
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?"
00:11:40.170 --> 00:11:42.090
I SAID,
00:11:42.090 --> 00:11:43.110
"MAN, I LOOKED IN MY MAILBOX,
00:11:43.110 --> 00:11:44.160
BUT Y'ALL NEVER
00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:45.230
SENT MY INVITATION!"
00:11:45.230 --> 00:11:47.110
WELL, I WAS 23.
00:11:47.110 --> 00:11:49.240
WHEN I WAS STANDING
00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:50.290
ON THE THRESHOLD
00:11:50.290 --> 00:11:52.000
OF THAT FRONT DOOR
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:53.000
OF MY MOTHER THAT DAY
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:54.010
I HEARD MY FATHER SEPARATE,
00:11:54.010 --> 00:11:55.060
I WAS TEN YEARS OLD
00:11:55.060 --> 00:11:56.090
AND I'M REMINDED,
00:11:56.090 --> 00:11:57.140
THAT WAS 13 YEARS
00:11:57.140 --> 00:11:58.180
OF TRUSTING GOD,
00:11:58.180 --> 00:11:59.270
OF BELIEVING HIM,
00:11:59.270 --> 00:12:01.130
OF SAYING "YES"
00:12:01.130 --> 00:12:02.200
WHEN EVERYBODY SAID "NO"
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:03.270
-- 13 YEARS OF PREPARATION
00:12:03.270 --> 00:12:06.180
FOR FOUR SECONDS.
00:12:06.180 --> 00:12:08.070
CHANGED MY LIFE.
00:12:08.070 --> 00:12:09.220
AND MY LIFE
00:12:09.220 --> 00:12:11.020
HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME.
00:12:11.020 --> 00:12:12.150
A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY, "OH
00:12:12.150 --> 00:12:14.060
IT WAS JUST A 40-YARD DASH."
00:12:14.060 --> 00:12:15.110
NO, THAT WAS TRANSFORMATIONAL
00:12:15.110 --> 00:12:16.160
IN MY LIFE BECAUSE GOD
00:12:16.160 --> 00:12:18.010
THAT PUT THAT VISION IN ME
00:12:18.010 --> 00:12:20.140
HE DID IT
00:12:20.140 --> 00:12:21.200
ON THAT DAY 13 YEARS LATER.
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:23.010
SO I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE,
00:12:23.010 --> 00:12:24.020
HOLD ON TO THE VISION
00:12:24.020 --> 00:12:25.220
AND TO THE WORD
00:12:25.220 --> 00:12:26.280
AND TO THE DREAMS
00:12:26.280 --> 00:12:28.090
GOD GIVES YOU.
00:12:28.090 --> 00:12:29.180
AND EVEN THOUGH
00:12:29.180 --> 00:12:30.210
THE WORLD MAY SAY NO,
00:12:30.210 --> 00:12:31.230
THE DEVIL MAY SAY NO,
00:12:31.230 --> 00:12:32.290
YOUR FLESH MAY SAY NO,
00:12:32.290 --> 00:12:34.040
James: I WANT US
00:12:35.130 --> 00:12:36.200
TO STAND AGAINST EVERYTHING
00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:37.250
THAT EVER KILLED THE VISION
00:12:37.250 --> 00:12:39.050
OF EVERY YOUNG MAN
00:12:39.050 --> 00:12:40.120
LIKE ME AND LIKE YOU
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:41.170
WHO DIDN'T HAVE A DAD
00:12:41.170 --> 00:12:42.220
THE VISION IN DR. BEN CARSON
00:12:43.270 --> 00:12:45.020
BECAUSE HE DIDN'T
00:12:45.020 --> 00:12:46.090
HAVE A FATHER.
00:12:46.090 --> 00:12:47.140
I WANT TO PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU
00:12:47.140 --> 00:12:49.090
THAT FELT LIKE, I DON'T KNOW
00:12:49.090 --> 00:12:50.140
IF I HAVE A DREAM.
00:12:50.140 --> 00:12:51.220
IT BREAKS MY HEART TO THINK
00:12:51.220 --> 00:12:52.280
THAT MIGHT BE THE CASE
00:12:52.280 --> 00:12:54.060
WITH ANY OF YOU OR ANYONE
00:12:54.060 --> 00:12:55.110
YOU KNOW.
00:12:55.110 --> 00:12:56.190
MAYBE YOU KNOW SOMEONE
00:12:56.190 --> 00:12:57.250
THAT FEELS LIKE
00:12:57.250 --> 00:12:58.260
THEY DON'T HAVE A DREAM
00:12:58.260 --> 00:13:00.030
OR YOU WISH THEY DID.
00:13:00.030 --> 00:13:01.070
AND MAYBE YOU COULD GET THEM
00:13:01.070 --> 00:13:02.140
TO WATCH THIS ON LINE
00:13:02.140 --> 00:13:03.210
WHERE I'M TALKING TO SCOTT
00:13:03.210 --> 00:13:04.240
BECAUSE I WANT EVERYBODY
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:05.280
TO KNOW
00:13:05.280 --> 00:13:07.040
THAT GOD HAS A DREAM FOR YOU.
00:13:07.040 --> 00:13:09.020
FATHER, I PRAY FOR EVERYONE
00:13:09.020 --> 00:13:10.100
THAT FEELS LIKE
00:13:10.100 --> 00:13:11.140
I DON'T EVEN HAVE A DREAM.
00:13:11.140 --> 00:13:12.180
LORD, I WANT YOU TO SHOW THEM
00:13:12.180 --> 00:13:13.230
YOUR DREAM FOR THEM.
00:13:13.230 --> 00:13:15.290
BECAUSE I KNOW SCOTT TURNER
00:13:15.290 --> 00:13:17.150
HAS COME TO TALK ABOUT
00:13:17.150 --> 00:13:19.020
YOUR DREAM FOR ALL THE PEOPLE
00:13:19.020 --> 00:13:20.240
HE'S GOING TO SEEK TO HELP
00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:22.190
AND THAT OTHERS WHO ARE GIFTED
00:13:22.190 --> 00:13:23.250
WILL SEEK TO HELP.
00:13:23.250 --> 00:13:24.290
AND THEN LORD FOR THOSE
00:13:24.290 --> 00:13:26.010
WHO HAVE A DREAM BUT THEY'VE
00:13:26.010 --> 00:13:27.050
NEVER SEEN IT FULFILLED,
00:13:27.050 --> 00:13:28.100
I WANT YOU TO GIVE THEM HOPE
00:13:28.100 --> 00:13:29.180
THAT IT WILL BE FULFILLED;
00:13:29.180 --> 00:13:31.000
IN JESUS' NAME.
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:32.080
I WANT TO SAY
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:33.140
TO ALL OF YOU WATCHING,
00:13:33.140 --> 00:13:35.130
YOU PRAY FOR SCOTT TURNER.
00:13:35.130 --> 00:13:37.100
THE FIRST TIME
00:13:37.100 --> 00:13:38.140
I HEARD HIM SPEAK
00:13:38.140 --> 00:13:39.160
HE WAS RUNNING
00:13:39.160 --> 00:13:40.190
TO BE A REPRESENTATIVE
00:13:40.190 --> 00:13:41.240
HERE IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.000
I KNEW I WAS LISTENING
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:44.050
TO AN ATHLETE,
00:13:44.050 --> 00:13:45.130
A FORMER N.F.L. PLAYER
00:13:45.130 --> 00:13:47.090
WHO HAD GOD ALL OVER HIM.
00:13:47.090 --> 00:13:49.170
I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE EVER
00:13:49.170 --> 00:13:50.190
SEEN ANY MORE ZEAL OR PASSION
00:13:50.190 --> 00:13:52.220
BUT WHAT'S BEST FOR THE PEOPLE
00:13:52.220 --> 00:13:54.050
IN OUR STATE.
00:13:54.050 --> 00:13:55.120
THEN WHEN I SAW HIM
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:56.170
IN WASHINGTON D.C.
00:13:56.170 --> 00:13:57.210
AND KNEW THAT HE WAS ACTUALLY
00:13:57.210 --> 00:13:59.050
WORKING WITH DR. BEN CARSON
00:13:59.050 --> 00:14:00.240
THAT I LOVE AND PRAYED WITH
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:02.260
FOR SO LONG FOR SO MANY YEARS;
00:14:02.260 --> 00:14:04.070
HE SPOKE AT
00:14:04.070 --> 00:14:05.170
MY 50TH ANNIVERSARY,
00:14:05.170 --> 00:14:06.190
MY WIFE AND I AT
00:14:06.190 --> 00:14:07.210
GATEWAY CHURCH.
00:14:07.210 --> 00:14:08.260
WHAT A BLESSING.
00:14:08.260 --> 00:14:10.010
ALL THE SPEAKERS WERE.
00:14:10.010 --> 00:14:11.010
BEN'S BEEN A BLESSING.
00:14:11.010 --> 00:14:12.020
WELL, WHEN I REALIZED
00:14:12.020 --> 00:14:13.040
THAT THIS GREAT YOUNG MAN
00:14:13.040 --> 00:14:14.080
IS NOW WORKING WITH HIM,
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.220
THAT HE'S ACTUALLY GOING
00:14:16.220 --> 00:14:17.270
TO IMPLEMENT A VISION
00:14:17.270 --> 00:14:19.010
THAT GOD GAVE PEOPLE
00:14:19.010 --> 00:14:20.090
AROUND THE PRESIDENT
00:14:20.090 --> 00:14:21.160
WHO LOVED JESUS
00:14:21.160 --> 00:14:22.210
WITH ALL THEIR HEART,
00:14:22.210 --> 00:14:23.240
AND THE PRESIDENT CAUGHT IT
00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:25.150
AND LAUNCHED IT
00:14:25.150 --> 00:14:26.250
AND YOU'RE GOING TO TALK
00:14:26.250 --> 00:14:27.270
ABOUT IT IN-DEPTH
00:14:27.270 --> 00:14:29.020
IN THE NEXT PROGRAM THAT
00:14:29.020 --> 00:14:30.070
WE'RE GOING TO DO TOGETHER.
00:14:30.070 --> 00:14:31.150
I WANT YOU TO TELL ME
00:14:31.150 --> 00:14:32.220
WHAT YOU BELIEVE GOD WILL DO
00:14:32.220 --> 00:14:34.140
WITH YOU AS YOU GO INTO
00:14:34.140 --> 00:14:36.100
THESE URBAN COMMUNITIES
00:14:36.100 --> 00:14:37.170
AND INNER CITY AREAS
00:14:37.170 --> 00:14:38.190
WHERE THAT DREAM
00:14:38.190 --> 00:14:39.210
NEEDS TO COME ALIVE
00:14:39.210 --> 00:14:40.210
AND PEOPLE NEED
00:14:40.210 --> 00:14:41.230
TO SEE OPPORTUNITY.
00:14:41.230 --> 00:14:42.290
WHAT DO YOU THINK
00:14:42.290 --> 00:14:44.010
IS GOING TO HAPPEN
00:14:44.010 --> 00:14:45.020
IN THESE AREAS
00:14:45.020 --> 00:14:46.040
WHERE YOU ALL GO WITH
00:14:46.040 --> 00:14:47.070
THIS REVITALIZATION EFFORT?
00:14:47.070 --> 00:14:49.170
THAT GOD HAS PREPARED ME
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:51.270
FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.
00:14:51.270 --> 00:14:53.070
BECAUSE I LIKE TO TELL PEOPLE,
00:14:53.070 --> 00:14:54.250
I'VE BEEN THROUGH
00:14:54.250 --> 00:14:56.040
BUT I'VE ALSO SEEN VICTORY.
00:14:57.260 --> 00:14:59.280
I'VE BEEN VERY BLESSED
00:14:59.280 --> 00:15:01.150
AND GOD HAS GIVEN ME
00:15:01.150 --> 00:15:02.210
A TREMENDOUS PLATFORM.
00:15:02.210 --> 00:15:04.050
AND HE'S GIVEN ME
00:15:04.050 --> 00:15:05.120
A HEART FOR THE HURTING,
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:06.230
A HEART FOR THE LOST,
00:15:06.230 --> 00:15:08.140
A HEART FOR THOSE
00:15:08.140 --> 00:15:09.190
THAT MAY HAVE BEEN VICTORIOUS
00:15:09.190 --> 00:15:11.020
BUT NOW ARE ON HARD TIMES.
00:15:11.100 --> 00:15:14.100
IN ISAIAH IT TALKS ABOUT
00:15:14.100 --> 00:15:15.220
BEING A REPAIRER OF THE BREACH
00:15:15.220 --> 00:15:16.270
AND A RESTORER OF THE STREETS.
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:20.000
WHEN I WENT TO THE WHITE HOUSE
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:21.210
AND I GOT THIS OPPORTUNITY
00:15:21.210 --> 00:15:23.070
AND ACCEPTED IT, SAID,
00:15:23.070 --> 00:15:24.140
"IT'S GREAT TO BE HERE
00:15:24.140 --> 00:15:26.070
IN D.C., IT'S GREAT TO BE
00:15:26.070 --> 00:15:27.150
IN THE WHITE HOUSE
00:15:27.150 --> 00:15:28.220
AND I'M SO BLESSED
00:15:28.220 --> 00:15:29.280
BUT I'M A STREET MAN.
00:15:29.280 --> 00:15:31.000
I WANT TO GO TO THE PEOPLE
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:32.060
AND TO BRING ABOUT THIS
00:15:32.060 --> 00:15:33.170
AND BE A CATALYST
00:15:33.170 --> 00:15:34.240
TO RESTORE DIGNITY AND HOPE
00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:37.130
IN THE COMMUNITIES
00:15:37.130 --> 00:15:39.010
THAT HAVE NOT SEEN THAT.
00:15:39.010 --> 00:15:40.130
AND TO BRING IN
00:15:40.130 --> 00:15:41.210
PUBLIC INVESTMENT
00:15:41.210 --> 00:15:42.260
AND PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP,
00:15:42.260 --> 00:15:44.160
PRIVATE MEN AND WOMEN
00:15:44.160 --> 00:15:45.250
THAT HAVE RESOURCES
00:15:45.250 --> 00:15:47.120
TO PARTNER,
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:49.040
TO INVEST IN THE COMMUNITIES
00:15:49.040 --> 00:15:50.280
THAT HAVE NOT SEEN IT,
00:15:50.280 --> 00:15:52.110
TO BUILD NEW BUSINESSES,
00:15:52.110 --> 00:15:54.020
TO BUILD AFFORDABLE HOUSING
00:15:54.020 --> 00:15:57.010
FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE AND TO WORK
00:15:57.010 --> 00:15:59.270
IN THEIR COMMUNITY,
00:15:59.270 --> 00:16:01.030
AND THE BENEFIT,
00:16:01.030 --> 00:16:02.080
AND THRIVE IN THE COMMUNITIES
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:04.280
THAT ARE BEING REVITALIZED,
00:16:04.280 --> 00:16:06.040
NOT TO BE DISPLACED,
00:16:06.040 --> 00:16:07.180
NOT TO BE MOVED, BUT TO LIVE
00:16:07.180 --> 00:16:08.220
AND THRIVE RIGHT THERE.
00:16:08.220 --> 00:16:09.230
THAT'S THE SPIRIT OF THIS.
00:16:09.230 --> 00:16:11.160
THAT'S THE SPIRIT
00:16:11.160 --> 00:16:12.230
THAT'S THE SPIRIT
00:16:13.240 --> 00:16:14.240
OF THE PRESIDENT, DR. CARSON,
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:15.270
AND ALL OF US
00:16:15.270 --> 00:16:16.280
THAT ARE INVOLVED IN THIS,
00:16:16.280 --> 00:16:17.290
THAT'S OUR HEART IS TO BRING
00:16:17.290 --> 00:16:19.210
YOU SEE REVITALIZATION,
00:16:21.050 --> 00:16:22.240
IT DOESN'T HAVE A COLOR.
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:25.000
IT DOESN'T HAVE A PARTY.
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:26.210
REVITALIZATION
00:16:26.210 --> 00:16:27.280
STARTS IN THE HEART.
00:16:27.280 --> 00:16:29.020
SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE BRINGING.
00:16:29.020 --> 00:16:30.070
I'M EXCITED TO SEE
00:16:30.070 --> 00:16:31.120
James: I WANT OUR VIEWERS
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:33.260
OF LIFE TODAY ,
00:16:33.260 --> 00:16:35.010
IF THERE ARE ANY PEOPLE
00:16:35.010 --> 00:16:36.060
ON THIS PLANET,
00:16:36.060 --> 00:16:37.130
ALL OVER THE WORLD
00:16:37.130 --> 00:16:38.200
TOO OFTEN OVERLOOKED,
00:16:39.290 --> 00:16:41.110
JESUS SAID
00:16:41.110 --> 00:16:42.230
"THE LEAST OF THESE,"
00:16:42.230 --> 00:16:43.280
YOU DO.
00:16:43.280 --> 00:16:45.080
I WANT YOU TO FOCUS
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:46.200
YOUR PRAYERS
00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:48.000
ON WHAT DR. CARSON,
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:49.140
WHAT SCOTT AND ALL
00:16:49.140 --> 00:16:50.280
THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH HIM,
00:16:50.280 --> 00:16:52.070
AND YES, WHAT THE PRESIDENT
00:16:52.070 --> 00:16:53.210
HAS INITIATED AND PUT HIS,
00:16:53.210 --> 00:16:55.070
NOT ONLY APPROVAL ON
00:16:55.070 --> 00:16:56.190
BUT SUPPORT BEHIND,
00:16:56.190 --> 00:16:58.030
THAT WE WILL LITERALLY
00:16:58.030 --> 00:16:59.160
SEE A MIRACLE TAKE PLACE.
00:16:59.160 --> 00:17:01.080
WHEN THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE --
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:03.180
AND THIS IS WHAT'S SAD.
00:17:03.180 --> 00:17:05.000
A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:06.100
WHO CREATE GREAT WEALTH,
00:17:06.100 --> 00:17:07.250
THEN THE GOVERNMENT EXTRACTS
00:17:07.250 --> 00:17:09.160
FROM THAT WEALTH
00:17:09.160 --> 00:17:10.260
CERTAIN TAXES.
00:17:10.260 --> 00:17:12.040
ERRONEOUSLY,
00:17:12.040 --> 00:17:13.150
THESE WEALTH CREATORS
00:17:13.150 --> 00:17:14.180
WHO PAY THESE TAXES
00:17:14.180 --> 00:17:15.210
LIKE MANY AMERICANS THINK,
00:17:15.210 --> 00:17:17.170
WELL, I PAID TAXES,
00:17:17.170 --> 00:17:18.200
THAT'S SUPPOSED
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:19.250
TO TAKE CARE OF THE POOR,
00:17:19.250 --> 00:17:20.270
AND TAKE CARE OF THIS.
00:17:20.270 --> 00:17:22.020
WITHOUT ANY PERSONAL OVERSIGHT
00:17:22.020 --> 00:17:23.080
OR COMPASSION CONNECTION
00:17:23.080 --> 00:17:24.110
YOU'RE JUST TAKING
00:17:24.110 --> 00:17:25.170
THE PEOPLE'S MONEY
00:17:25.170 --> 00:17:26.260
AND TARGETING IT AT SOMETHING
00:17:26.260 --> 00:17:28.020
THAT IT SELDOM HITS
00:17:28.020 --> 00:17:29.070
AND STICKS.
00:17:29.070 --> 00:17:30.120
AND IF THERE IS
00:17:30.120 --> 00:17:31.170
NO LOVE INVOLVED,
00:17:31.170 --> 00:17:32.210
THERE IS NO CHANGE MADE.
00:17:32.210 --> 00:17:33.260
IT ACTUALLY KEEPS PEOPLE
00:17:33.260 --> 00:17:34.290
DEPRAVED AND DEFEATED,
00:17:34.290 --> 00:17:36.020
AND WITH NO INCENTIVE,
00:17:36.020 --> 00:17:37.070
AND THEY NEVER CHANGE.
00:17:37.070 --> 00:17:38.120
THEY JUST STAY STUCK.
00:17:38.120 --> 00:17:39.160
BUT PEOPLE IN POWER USE THEM
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:41.160
TO STAY IN POWER
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:42.210
WHERE THEY NEVER HELP THEM.
00:17:42.210 --> 00:17:43.280
I WANT OUR VIEWERS TO PRAY
00:17:43.280 --> 00:17:45.210
THAT THIS WILL BRING REAL LIFE
00:17:45.210 --> 00:17:48.060
TO THE WEALTH CREATOR
00:17:48.060 --> 00:17:50.000
WHO WILL SAY, OKAY, I'M NOT
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:51.200
JUST GOING TO HAND IT OVER
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:52.220
HERE TO UNCLE SAM
00:17:52.220 --> 00:17:54.040
OR TO SOME PHARAOH OR CAESAR,
00:17:54.040 --> 00:17:55.230
I'M GOING TO PERSONALLY
00:17:55.230 --> 00:17:57.010
GET INVOLVED,
00:17:57.010 --> 00:17:58.010
LET ME GIVE THEM MONEY,
00:17:58.010 --> 00:17:59.030
BUT I'M GOING TO BE
00:17:59.030 --> 00:18:00.060
RISK TAKING,
00:18:01.080 --> 00:18:02.110
AND PUTTING MY LIFE IN
00:18:02.110 --> 00:18:03.170
LET'S SAY THE GIFTING
00:18:03.170 --> 00:18:04.260
GOD'S GIVEN ME
00:18:04.260 --> 00:18:05.280
AND THE ABILITY, I'M GOING
00:18:05.280 --> 00:18:07.050
TO INVEST IT RIGHT THERE.
00:18:07.050 --> 00:18:08.110
THIS IS CALLED REAL
00:18:09.180 --> 00:18:10.240
ON-SITE COACHING FROM SOMEBODY
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.000
WHO KNOWS HOW TO WIN.
00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:13.040
AND IT CAN TOTALLY
00:18:13.040 --> 00:18:14.110
CHANGE EVERYTHING.
00:18:14.110 --> 00:18:15.190
Scott: YES, SIR.
00:18:15.190 --> 00:18:16.270
AND I BELIEVE THAT IT WILL.
00:18:16.270 --> 00:18:18.000
BECAUSE THERE IS
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:19.080
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
00:18:19.080 --> 00:18:20.160
AND THERE'S
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:21.230
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.
00:18:21.230 --> 00:18:22.290
THERE IS ECONOMIC IMPACT
00:18:22.290 --> 00:18:25.070
AND THEN A SOCIAL IMPACT.
00:18:25.100 --> 00:18:28.100
AND THERE'S NEW TOOLS
00:18:28.100 --> 00:18:30.050
WITH OPPORTUNITY ZONES
00:18:30.050 --> 00:18:31.100
WHICH WE'LL TALK ABOUT LATER.
00:18:31.100 --> 00:18:32.150
James: THAT'S WHAT
00:18:32.150 --> 00:18:33.200
WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:34.250
IN DETAIL.
00:18:34.250 --> 00:18:36.000
SCOTT'S GOING TO GO OVER THIS
00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:37.010
IN DETAIL IN THE NEXT PROGRAM.
00:18:37.010 --> 00:18:38.020
SCOTT, SIMPLY BECAUSE
00:18:38.020 --> 00:18:39.090
I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO HAVE
00:18:39.090 --> 00:18:40.110
AS MUCH TIME AS OPRAH,
00:18:40.110 --> 00:18:41.140
SO WE HAVE TO KIND OF
00:18:41.140 --> 00:18:42.220
WRAP OURS UP IN A HALF HOUR,
00:18:42.220 --> 00:18:43.250
AND YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.
00:18:43.250 --> 00:18:44.260
BUT DO YOU KNOW
00:18:44.260 --> 00:18:46.000
WHAT WE'RE DOING?
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:47.080
I KNOW YOU LOVE THIS.
00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:48.140
WE'RE PUTTING, AND I USED
00:18:48.140 --> 00:18:49.240
TO HOLD UP LITTLE SHOES,
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:51.050
I'D ALMOST TEAR UP BECAUSE
00:18:51.050 --> 00:18:52.090
IT LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING
00:18:52.090 --> 00:18:53.110
THAT YOU'D BE SAYING,
00:18:53.110 --> 00:18:54.130
PUT A LITTLE SHOE
00:18:54.130 --> 00:18:55.230
BUT WE'RE GOING TO PUT SHOES
00:18:57.040 --> 00:18:58.130
OF ALL SIZES
00:18:58.130 --> 00:18:59.190
AND THESE DO PRETTY WELL
00:18:59.190 --> 00:19:00.260
EXPAND A LITTLE BIT
00:19:00.260 --> 00:19:02.020
AS A CHILD GROWS,
00:19:02.020 --> 00:19:03.070
BUT WE'RE GOING TO GIVE
00:19:03.070 --> 00:19:04.180
150.000 CHILDREN, MOST OF
00:19:04.180 --> 00:19:06.040
WHO HAVE NEVER HAD SHOES
00:19:06.040 --> 00:19:07.160
IN THEIR LIFE ALL OVER
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:08.270
THE WORLD FOR CHRISTMAS.
00:19:08.270 --> 00:19:10.040
WE START WAY AHEAD OF TIME.
00:19:10.040 --> 00:19:12.050
WE HAVE TO RAISE THE FUNDS
00:19:12.050 --> 00:19:13.150
WAY AHEAD OF TIME
00:19:13.150 --> 00:19:14.210
TO BUY THE SHOES.
00:19:14.210 --> 00:19:15.230
AND THEN WE HAVE TO SHIP THEM
00:19:15.230 --> 00:19:16.260
ALL OVER THE WORLD,
00:19:16.260 --> 00:19:18.040
TO THE VARIOUS PARTS.
00:19:18.040 --> 00:19:19.070
YOU TALK ABOUT
00:19:19.070 --> 00:19:20.150
LIGHTING UP SOMEBODY'S LIFE,
00:19:20.150 --> 00:19:21.210
I MEAN THIS NOT ONLY
00:19:21.210 --> 00:19:22.280
BRIGHTENS THE DAY
00:19:22.280 --> 00:19:24.040
OF THE LITTLE CHILDREN
00:19:24.040 --> 00:19:25.140
BUT WHAT A DIFFERENCE IT MAKES
00:19:25.140 --> 00:19:27.000
FOR THE MISSIONARIES
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:28.260
WHO GET TO SEE THESE
00:19:28.260 --> 00:19:30.030
LITTLE CHILDREN THAT
00:19:30.030 --> 00:19:31.080
THEY LOVE BLESSED SO MUCH.
00:19:31.080 --> 00:19:32.140
SO WOULD YOU RIGHT NOW
00:19:32.140 --> 00:19:33.210
JUST DIAL THAT NUMBER
00:19:33.210 --> 00:19:34.250
THAT'S THERE OR GO ONLINE
00:19:34.250 --> 00:19:36.190
AND WOULD YOU GIVE?
00:19:36.190 --> 00:19:38.100
WOULD YOU GIVE
00:19:38.100 --> 00:19:39.220
TEN PAIRS OF SHOES?
00:19:39.220 --> 00:19:41.010
COULD YOU POSSIBLY GIVE $180
00:19:41.010 --> 00:19:43.110
AND GIVE 50 CHILDREN --
00:19:43.110 --> 00:19:44.210
THINK ABOUT IT,
00:19:44.210 --> 00:19:45.270
WHAT A CHRISTMAS FOR 50 KIDS!
00:19:45.270 --> 00:19:48.100
WOULD YOU GIVE
00:19:48.100 --> 00:19:49.170
50 PAIRS OF SHOES?
00:19:49.170 --> 00:19:50.170
AND THEN WOULD YOU HELP US
00:19:50.170 --> 00:19:52.070
DO THE CLEFT PALATE SURGERIES
00:19:52.070 --> 00:19:53.190
WHERE THEIR
00:19:53.190 --> 00:19:54.270
FACIAL DISFIGURATION
00:19:54.270 --> 00:19:56.030
WILL BE DEALT WITH
00:19:56.030 --> 00:19:57.070
AND WE COULD GIVE
00:19:57.070 --> 00:19:58.160
THOSE SURGERIES THAT COST
00:19:58.160 --> 00:19:59.210
AN AVERAGE OF $500 APIECE?
00:19:59.210 --> 00:20:01.270
THAT'S BECAUSE DOCTORS
00:20:01.270 --> 00:20:03.040
SACRIFICE THEIR TIME
00:20:03.040 --> 00:20:04.060
AND THEIR SKILL.
00:20:04.060 --> 00:20:05.130
BUT $1.000 WILL GIVE
00:20:05.130 --> 00:20:08.010
TWO SMILES FOR CHRISTMAS.
00:20:08.010 --> 00:20:09.280
SO WOULD YOU JOIN US
00:20:09.280 --> 00:20:11.060
WITH CHRISTMAS SMILES
00:20:11.060 --> 00:20:12.160
AND SHOES, PLEASE?
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:13.220
BY THE WAY,
00:20:13.220 --> 00:20:14.250
IF YOU TRIED TO CALL
00:20:14.250 --> 00:20:15.290
AND GET A BUSY, BE DETERMINED.
00:20:15.290 --> 00:20:17.030
CALL UNTIL YOU GET THROUGH.
00:20:17.030 --> 00:20:18.070
SAY I'M GOING TO MAKE
00:20:18.070 --> 00:20:19.110
THIS GIFT.
00:20:19.110 --> 00:20:20.120
IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:20:20.120 --> 00:20:21.260
POVERTY IS A KILLER
00:20:25.090 --> 00:20:27.110
AND BECAUSE OF IT CHILDREN NEEDLESSLY SUFFER,
00:20:27.140 --> 00:20:30.070
NOT ONLY FROM A LACK A FOOD AND CLEAN WATER
00:20:30.100 --> 00:20:32.110
BUT ALSO FROM A LACK OF THINGS
00:20:32.140 --> 00:20:34.110
WE OFTEN TAKE FOR GRANTED
00:20:34.140 --> 00:20:36.110
LIKE A SIMPLE PAIR OF SHOES.
00:20:36.140 --> 00:20:38.210
FAR TOO MANY CHILDREN LIVING IN EXTREME POVERTY
00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:41.080
HAVE NEVER OWNED A NEW PAIR OF SHOES.
00:20:41.110 --> 00:20:43.240
AND WHILE THAT MAY SEEM MINOR IN LIGHT OF ALL THEIR NEEDS,
00:20:43.270 --> 00:20:46.100
WALKING WITH BARE FEET
00:20:46.130 --> 00:20:48.100
PUTS THEM AT RISK OF LIFE-THREATENING INFECTIONS AND DISEASE
00:20:48.130 --> 00:20:51.090
THAT COULD LEAD TO CRIPPLING CONSEQUENCES AND EVEN DEATH.
00:20:51.120 --> 00:20:55.020
BY RESPONDING TODAY YOU CAN HELP IMMEDIATELY SECURE
00:20:55.050 --> 00:20:58.010

00:20:58.040 --> 00:21:00.040
TO 150.000 CHILDREN AROUND THE WORLD
00:21:00.070 --> 00:21:03.020
JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS.
00:21:03.050 --> 00:21:05.200
YOUR GIFT OF $36 WILL HELP PROVIDE TEN PAIRS OF SHOES.
00:21:05.230 --> 00:21:09.060
A GIFT OF $72 WILL PROVIDE 20-PAIR
00:21:09.090 --> 00:21:11.250
AND A GIFT OF $180
00:21:11.280 --> 00:21:13.260
WILL HELP PROVIDE 50 PAIRS OF CHRISTMAS SHOES
00:21:13.290 --> 00:21:16.000
FOR CHILDREN IN NEED.
00:21:16.030 --> 00:21:18.000
AS A THANK YOU FOR YOUR GIFT OF SUPPORT,
00:21:18.030 --> 00:21:20.000
BE SURE TO REQUEST THIS BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED
00:21:20.030 --> 00:21:22.000
GREEN CRYSTAL SHOE ORNAMENT,
00:21:22.030 --> 00:21:24.000
A TREASURE TO DISPLAY AT EACH CHRISTMAS.
