00:03 - Welcome everyone. 00:05 We're excited to share some Country Wisdom with you. 00:07 - King Solomon had a thing or two to say 00:09 about the path to wisdom. 00:11 In Proverbs 4 he wrote, let your eyes look directly forward 00:16 and your gaze be straight before you, 00:19 keep straight the path of your feet 00:21 and all your ways will be sure. 00:23 - Join us now for Country Wisdom. 00:26 (gentle music) 00:33 (indistinct chatter) 00:41 (long beeping) 00:45 You know, Jay, right now, while I'm talking, 00:47 I hope the camera's focused on that T-shirt 00:49 because that T-shirt really says it all, 00:52 saved by Jesus and an organ donor. 00:56 You're here today by a miracle, 00:58 and I don't think. 00:59 - More than one. 01:00 - More than one, yeah, more than one, 01:02 so we'd like to hear that story today. 01:03 We'll just let you kind of take it. 01:05 - Well, I appreciate the opportunity 01:08 to tell you my life and how it transpired, 01:11 particularly over the last five months, 01:14 in a dramatic way, but in a real positive way. 01:20 The Lord is good. 01:22 I shouldn't be here. 01:24 I should have died more than once. 01:26 And I'm very grateful that God saw through a bigger purpose 01:33 because what transpired, 01:36 starting back in March of this year, 01:40 culminated to a new heart, 01:44 physical new heart, and I'm very grateful, 01:48 very grateful to be here today, talking to you guys. 01:51 - We're grateful for that too. 01:52 And Janice, maybe tell him why we're so far apart. 01:54 - Right, we purposely are outdoors 01:57 and far more separate from you. 02:00 Usually whoever we're talking to is right nearby, 02:03 but we don't want to do anything to compromise you 02:06 because you're still in some ways in precarious health 02:10 in that your immune system, 02:13 you have to be given time to recover from this 02:16 and to make sure nothing's going to reject that heart. 02:18 - Yeah, and I appreciate that, 02:20 that's just part of the process. 02:23 You have some rules you have to go by, but in the long run, 02:26 once you get through this first year, you're home free, 02:29 and I wanna say that my new heart, I've had no rejection, 02:33 I've had eight biopsies, I do another one, 02:36 and Lord is blessing me, 02:38 and he handpicked this heart. 02:40 And I wanna tell you that story of how it all transpired. 02:45 - Yeah, briefly, what led up to your doctor saying, 02:49 here's your only choice. 02:50 - Yeah. 02:52 Well, you know, I was given a gene 02:57 that is very much a dangerous gene, 03:01 which I didn't know about it. 03:02 Obviously, I have some family history. 03:05 My grandfather, his brothers, my uncle, 03:09 my mom, she died of congestive heart failure, 03:12 and then it all culminated back when I was 45, 03:17 so that's been 11 years ago 03:18 that this gene started to kind of react and not knowing, 03:22 what it could culminate to. 03:25 I got my first pacemaker in 2011 03:29 that transpired to a defibrillator pacer in 2017. 03:34 I've had multiple ablation surgeries, 03:36 try to fix this crazy genetic rhythm issue. 03:42 And then in March of this year, 03:45 it started really culminating to react in a negative way. 03:51 Won't feeling the greatest, 03:52 decided to go into the ER, 03:55 and what, I was glad I did 03:58 'cause I was in a sustained Ventricular Tach, 04:00 which is a very dangerous rhythm, 04:05 and they got me stable. 04:05 I remember that early morning, 04:08 my cardiologists coming in 04:10 and I guess I was taking a real turn for the worst, 04:12 but my life was saved then, 04:15 but I didn't think it was gonna be saved 04:17 because of the way I was feeling, 04:19 and I could see in the doctor's eyes, 04:20 it was not a good situation. 04:23 In that moment, I basically said my peace with the Lord. 04:26 I said, Lord, I love you, 04:29 I wanna be with you in heaven, 04:30 and I asked him for forgiveness of sins. 04:33 I said, but if you want me to still be here on this earth, 04:37 then you're gonna have a purpose. 04:38 - Jay, if I can, I'm gonna leave you right at that moment. 04:42 Let's go back to previous history. 04:45 Were you're a Christian? 04:46 Did you love God? 04:47 What was your spiritual life like? 04:49 Kind of unpack some of that for us, if you would. 04:51 - Yeah, I've grown up a Christian my whole life, 04:53 I went to Christian education, 04:57 I've had a good family upbringing, 05:00 we had worships in our family, 05:02 but to be honest, I wasn't on fire for the Lord. 05:06 I was considered what you would call 05:08 the Laodicea church, 05:10 but the Laodicea person, lukewarm, 05:12 and you know, that's not the way to be, 05:15 you're not, you really can't go through life doing that 05:19 as a Christian upfront, 05:21 but in inside, are you really in communication, 05:24 and do you have Christ in your life on a daily basis? 05:28 Well, I think it took this experience 05:31 that I'm talking to you about today 05:33 to realize for me personally 05:36 that there is definitely a trust factor 05:39 that you gotta have and you gotta trust in your Lord 05:42 to give you a new heart spiritually, every day. 05:46 I've been gifted with a new heart physically, 05:50 but that spiritual aspect, it needs to be daily, 05:53 and here's the deal, I didn't realize it 05:56 until this whole experience 05:57 that Christ gave his heart for us, right? 06:01 And ultimately, it was death. 06:03 So, reality is, that gift 06:06 of having a spiritual new heart 06:08 is available for us every day. 06:11 Now, not everybody gets a physical new heart 06:14 that is in need of one. 06:16 I'm lucky. 06:17 I'm lucky. 06:20 - You weren't on the list very long, were you? 06:22 - No, not at all. 06:25 I got through that one situation in March, 06:28 and it was doing okay. 06:29 It ended up having a major, another major ablation 06:33 that they're trying to fix it 06:35 'cause ultimately, this, the last resort is 06:39 a brand new physical heart, 06:41 I mean, that, you don't wanna go there, 06:43 but if you, they're trying to do everything possible. 06:46 Well, they thought it was successful with that procedure. 06:49 It ended up not working 06:52 because on April 12th, I had a very traumatic, 06:55 probably the most traumatic experience of my life, 06:58 just here at the end of the driveway, 07:00 I was actually going to rehab for my previous surgery 07:03 and my defibrillator decided to go off. 07:06 I'd never been shocked before. 07:07 It always paced down this crazy rhythm, 07:09 that's what it's designed to do. 07:11 And all, the pacer is an internal shocking system 07:16 to shock it back in rhythm. 07:17 You're supposed to go back in rhythm 07:18 within a one or two shocks. 07:20 - Is that something you really physically feel? 07:23 - Oh, absolutely. 07:24 - [Jim] Absolutely. 07:25 - It knocks people down. 07:28 Yeah, I'm pretty much in good shape otherwise, health-wise. 07:32 I was in the car sitting down. 07:34 The Lord blessed me without being on the highway 07:37 'cause it could have been very traumatic experience 07:40 and I could have crashed, 07:42 but anyway, I was at the end of the driveway, 07:45 I got shocked for the first time, 07:46 I knew what it was, you kind of black out, 07:49 came back in, kept getting shocked, 07:51 woke my wife up from a dead sleep. 07:54 It's very painful as we got to get to the emergency 07:58 because I knew what was gonna calm it down 08:00 from the previous experience and it's magic Lidocaine, 08:06 they call it rocket fuel for irregular rhythms, 08:09 so we, my wife was, had the spirit with her. 08:13 She drove like cool as a cucumber, and we. 08:16 - I'm still, I got to interrupt, 08:18 I'm still hung up on these shocks, 08:19 and, you know, you kind of just pass over it like, 08:22 yes, it's a hard deal. 08:23 - We have all seen medical shows with the paddles, 08:26 and it, you come off the table 08:28 and that's happening to you from the inside? 08:30 - Yes, that's what an internal defibrillator device does, 08:35 and it's the last resort 08:36 because if you don't get that out of rhythm, 08:39 then you could die instantly, and you know. 08:43 - And you're walking around and that's going on? 08:45 It never. 08:46 - Well, yeah. 08:47 In the car, all total, it went off 26 times. 08:53 Now that is unheard of. 08:54 The people at the emergency said, we haven't seen this, 08:58 you're lucky to be here from that. 09:01 It's just one of those things that that's a lot. 09:03 - I'll tell you right now, 09:04 our doctor volunteer's on the other camera, 09:07 he shaking his head, you know, thinking about that. 09:11 - Well, it was supposed to go off 21 more times 09:14 according to the records 09:16 'cause they have all this in your device, it's a computer, 09:19 and it didn't have the capacitor strength to do it. 09:22 So I shouldn't have made it then. 09:24 I mean, medically, that's number two in a period, 09:30 yeah, second time that you've been gifted. 09:33 Well, the next phase was okay, 09:37 he's not well off, so I got transferred to 09:40 Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital up in Nashville, 09:43 and they saw immediately that there wasn't many options, 09:47 but they wanna give you the options. 09:49 And ultimately the option was, 09:51 you're a good candidate for a heart transplant. 09:54 And there was eight specialists that came in 09:57 on that Wednesday morning, 10:00 and that was on April the 14th, I won't forget that day, 10:06 and they're basically throwing a lot of stuff at you. 10:10 I didn't know how serious it really was 10:12 'cause I can talk just like I'm talking to you 10:15 and feel okay if I'm not in some crazy rhythm, 10:18 but if you're in some crazy rhythm, 10:19 it's very serious, 10:22 and so they saw that, and I'm going, 10:24 so, if you're in my shoes, what would you do? 10:28 And they said, you need a heart transplant. 10:30 So that culminated to, okay, we're gonna move forward, 10:34 I have no other option. 10:35 And they worked very closely. 10:39 They said, you're gonna go into two. 10:41 Now there's a scale of, like, one to six on a rating, 10:45 and two's very high. 10:48 I mean, you gotta get one pretty quickly, 10:50 I, knowing that now. 10:52 And so they went through some tests and I qualified, 10:56 they said, oh, you're a perfect candidate 10:57 'cause I basically lived a good life. 11:00 I don't smoke, I don't drink, 11:01 I get good health standards, I just had a bum heart, 11:05 and they saw all that. 11:06 They said, and I'm fairly young, 11:09 I'm 56 and so there's. 11:11 - In going this time, walk us through a little bit of your, 11:17 what's going on with you and the Lord. 11:19 - Well, I already saw that there was gifted of life 11:26 and that he granted me purpose, 11:29 so I'd been, I had a miracle happen on that first situation 11:35 from the surgery they had in March, 11:37 and that was a direct hand from God, 11:41 basically coming in and giving healing immediately 11:47 to what is called heart edema, cardiac edema. 11:53 I've experienced it before with another surgery, 11:55 so it's drowning, and he healed me from that, 11:58 and I felt the hand of God. 12:01 - The older I get, the more I realize 12:04 that the years of this life are finite. 12:07 You see, we are born with an incurable disease called death. 12:11 It will happen to all of us unless the Lord comes soon, 12:16 but this was not God's plan, 12:18 this was the work of the devil. 12:20 But our God has a plan that ends in eternal life 12:24 for those who buy into his plan. 12:27 I have a pamphlet here I'd like to offer you for free. 12:30 Yes, free. 12:32 Go to TalkingDonkeyInternational.org, 12:35 and request offer #111. 12:37 You Can Live Forever. 12:41 - So I already had some confidence, but look. 12:45 - I can't let you. 12:47 - I know, I was just about to stop him 12:49 'cause earlier when you were giving us a brief run down, 12:52 there's a little bit more to that story 12:54 about you feeling the hand of God. 12:56 - Yes. 12:57 Yeah, so you've already felt the hand of God, 13:00 you've been, you've gone through a lot. 13:04 - He's still not gonna tell you. 13:05 - But we're still human, right? 13:07 I'm still human. 13:09 I've got nerves that this is gonna be, 13:11 this is not a good experience, 13:14 it's gonna happen, there's a lot involved, 13:15 there's rules you gotta follow. 13:17 - Oh, my blood pressure is rising 13:18 just having to talk about his heart going out. 13:19 - And Jay, you can't get past us on this. 13:22 We want to hear what went on. 13:24 - The hand of God when you felt, 13:27 you said you recognized it 13:28 from previous complication of surgery. 13:31 - Because I know the same God of the Bible 13:32 is the same God today. 13:33 He does mighty things, 13:34 so you've got to unpack that story a little more for us. 13:37 - [Jay] Okay. 13:38 - You said you were trying to decide 13:39 whether to push that nurse's button. 13:40 - Yes, well, I was in the hospital coming out of surgery, 13:45 I came out fine. 13:47 I'll never forget it was a 12 o'clock at midnight 13:50 and I'm wide awake, 13:53 and I felt this cardiac edema come on. 13:58 Uh-oh, I don't really wanna deal with this 14:00 'cause I know what that's about. 14:01 The only way you can get it off is with a BiPAP, 14:03 that gets really bad or surgically remove the fluid. 14:06 So I'm like, man, I really, Lord you can take this away. 14:13 So I just really opened up and just in the hospital bed, 14:15 my wife's just wore outside asleep, 14:17 so it's just me and God really. 14:19 And I said, look, you know, I don't, 14:22 you know what's going on here, 14:23 but you can take this away, 14:25 and I'm gonna ask you to take this away, 14:27 I'm gonna go ahead and thank you for it. 14:29 It's the positive way, 14:30 which I went through in this late seventies. 14:33 And then, you know, I said, thank you for doing this, 14:36 and I want you to know that I very quickly, 14:39 I felt the hand of God coming in, 14:41 whatever you wanna call it, the hand, spirit, 14:45 and it went right to that spot. 14:46 And I'm telling you it was gone. 14:50 It's a miracle, I mean, that's a small miracle, 14:52 but it gave me a lot of faith. 14:54 And I feel like that little things like that 14:56 in people's lives can sure give strength and give clarity 15:02 as you go through life, 15:05 and we need to hear more of those little miracles. 15:07 - Well, thank you. 15:08 It took us a little bit to pull it out of him. 15:10 Well, we got it. 15:11 Now let's go back to you're number two on a list, 15:14 maybe of six. 15:16 Go ahead. 15:17 - Yeah, so to stay at a two, 15:21 because I'm on electrical situation then, 15:25 there's a group that's called UNOS, 15:27 it's a National Network for Organ Sharing. 15:29 And they control who is eligible for organs 15:35 to make sure that it's the right person, 15:37 everything that's good. 15:40 You call like the federal government of organ donor, 15:42 but they're there to protect, okay. 15:46 The rule with electrical changed 15:49 and they needed some additional activity 15:52 because I had been put on this rocket fuel, 15:55 I didn't have any activities sitting in bed 15:57 for some period of time. 15:58 - So, now you seem fine for the moment. 15:59 - For the moment, 16:01 but yet you're still being controlled by this med, 16:02 so you don't react because my heart was tired, 16:05 it was irritated, it was done. 16:08 And they knew it, but we had to prove it to this group. 16:11 - To stable now, basically. 16:13 - To stable, if you wanna call it that. 16:15 So they sent the head of the department in and he comes in 16:19 and he's there to kind of get some activity 16:21 by getting you angry, getting you riled up. 16:25 I didn't know what he was there for, 16:27 but he's there to say, well, we got a dilemma, Mr. Jones. 16:33 You can't be on this drip for the rest of your life. 16:35 And we got this situation and we all knew you need a heart, 16:39 but if we take in and push the issue and get your heart, 16:43 then they're gonna shut our program down 16:45 because it's against their rule. 16:47 And so I said, well, I don't want that. 16:49 And I said, but we might have to put an LVAD in, 16:52 which is an artificial heart as a bridge. 16:54 And we might have to do all this stuff, 16:57 and I'm going, where in the world is this coming from? 17:01 And I'm like, well you know what, doc 17:03 I said, my Lord's got the heart already picked out. 17:06 And I said, if I have to go down to a six 17:08 and I gotta wait a year or whatever, 17:10 then so be it because I trust in him. 17:13 And I said, I'm sorry, but you need to take me off this, 17:18 and let me walk through, 17:18 take me off this "Rocket Fuel", 17:20 and let me walk down the hall 17:21 and I'll give you Ventricular Tach 17:22 because that's what this is all about. 17:24 - So your line, is this pretty stable yet? 17:27 He didn't get a rise out of you. 17:28 - No he didn't, but he did out of my wife, 17:31 my wife got really upset. 17:32 So you're gonna send him home to die? 17:37 That upset me. 17:40 I went from 80 to 280, just like that, 17:43 and it was that serious. 17:45 I hear like a bunch of elephants coming down the hall 17:47 with nurses and it's going off, you know, 17:50 they're seeing it and hold it all back, hold back, 17:53 he's fine, he's fine, 17:54 and well, that's what they needed, 17:57 that's what they needed to pass the test. 17:59 But I really think I passed the test for my Lord, 18:02 'cause I gave him, gave him the glory and trust. 18:06 But at the same time, 18:07 I passed the test for the doc and the hospital. 18:11 He came back in 10 minutes later, he goes, 18:14 you're officially a two and you could get a heart tonight. 18:18 So, that was a big moment. 18:23 So we transpired, 18:25 I actually had some more episodes in the hospital. 18:27 I did get shocked again. 18:28 They just finally just turned off the defibrillator 18:31 and said, well, it ain't do any good. 18:33 And why put him through that torture anymore? 18:35 It still worked because I needed a pacer to run the heart, 18:38 but 'cause of a block situations, 18:40 it's a messed up gene, 18:42 it's a cursed gene. 18:44 But I'll never forget on May the 4th, 18:50 my surgeon come in at seven in the morning. 18:52 I said, you got a heart? 18:55 Yes, yes, sir. 18:56 We got one, it's a good one. 18:58 - [Jim] Did your wife get to hear that? 18:59 - No she wasn't there at that early in the morning. 19:02 They keep you up all night, you know? 19:04 So you're wide awake at seven in the morning 19:05 when you're in the hospital. 19:07 And he says, hey, we could go into surgery by noon. 19:11 So we're gonna be doing some things. 19:13 Well it ended up getting delayed, they had weather issues. 19:16 You got four hours and five minutes to get that organ 19:19 from the recipient to you, and that's it. 19:23 There's no good. 19:24 So there's time sensitivity. 19:28 And to be able to match up a heart to the person, 19:31 there's a lot involved, there's the blood type, 19:34 there's the size, there's all this stuff, 19:36 that's why they take lots of blood and do all these tests 19:39 because you gotta have that miracle to happen as well. 19:46 So, it ended up being the morning of the 5th, 19:50 at two in the morning, we had the surgery, 19:52 and I'll never forget, I said, 19:53 my one request is I wanna have prayer with the team, 19:56 and you, and we did that. 19:59 And I'll never forget my last words before the surgery. 20:01 I said, Godspeed with you, 20:02 I'm wide awake, so I got your heart right here. 20:05 It's kind of interesting. 20:08 It's there on ice. 20:09 So anyway, it was about five and a half hour surgery. 20:13 I had about a two hour recovery. 20:15 So I'm up at 11 in the morning 20:17 and they're walking me to the chair. 20:19 They said it was a record, I don't know. 20:21 They said he's gonna sleep all day, they called my wife, 20:23 she had left. He said, he's up. 20:27 God already had plans to move forward, I guess. 20:31 So anyway, had some complications after I got through those 20:34 with my kidneys and I was released on the 20th of May, 20:40 that was after 39 days of being in the hospital. 20:44 I was about 21 days of being assessed 20:51 that you needed a heart. 20:53 And only 13 days from the time I was officially on the list 20:57 to get a heart, that's record speed, 20:59 because on the day I was released, 21:02 the assistant to the surgeon, I said, 21:03 man, I can't thank you guys enough, 21:05 it's great staff, I mean, you have really taken care of me. 21:09 And I said, you said, we need to get a heart 21:11 within four weeks. 21:13 He goes, no sir. 21:15 He said, you had less than that. 21:17 You had about a week to week and a half left. 21:21 So Lord knew what the timing was. 21:22 - Wow. 21:23 - He got a good one. 21:24 Surgeon said, it's a great heart. 21:27 The only thing I know is that that's younger. 21:30 It's 20 times better than the one I had, 21:32 and they played soccer, so got some athletic, 21:37 going for you there. 21:38 So, I'm thankful to be alive today 21:43 because I wouldn't have, 21:44 if I had not been gifted from a donor, from a recipient, 21:50 the gift of a new heart and for God to intervene 21:55 and work through the timing, 21:56 I was at the right place at the right time 21:58 with the right folks and everything lined up. 22:01 I don't think that can happen unless it's intervention 22:05 with what I've heard from previous recipients, 22:10 I'm thankful to my family and everyone that prayed for me. 22:13 I had about 4,000 people lifting up prayers, this got out, 22:18 that gave me strength too, 22:22 I have a promise that I used a lot in my life, 22:25 it's Isaiah 26:3, 22:27 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, 22:29 whose mind is stayed on thee. 22:30 And that was a real strength for me 22:32 getting through this episode. 22:34 And it has been a strength for me throughout my life, 22:36 but it particularly given me peace, 22:38 having a good attitude with what you're being dealt with. 22:44 My new heart is strong physically, but at the same time, 22:50 there is the spiritual side of this. 22:53 You know, I mentioned I was a lukewarm Christian, 22:56 I'm not anymore. 22:59 God has shown me what he can do for you 23:02 and what he did for me physically. 23:04 But on a spiritual note, he already died for my sins. 23:09 He gave the gift of life 2000 years ago. 23:13 It's a gift for us, each and every day. 23:16 Now, we can take that gift for granted, 23:20 just like we do every day of our lives, 23:24 but I don't take this heart for granted, 23:26 that's physically given to me. 23:27 I now don't take the gift of spiritual gift that God gave us 23:31 by dying on the cross. 23:35 He gave me life physically, 23:37 but he gives me life spiritually. 23:39 I think it's important, and what I'm doing now is a more, 23:43 a daily relationship with him that is through prayer, 23:51 through study and just, we call it quiet time with him. 23:57 To me, that's the most important thing. 23:59 And I already know he's got a divine appointment for me, 24:02 and I asked for that every day, 24:04 what is it you got in store for me? 24:06 Because I shouldn't be here, 24:09 you've allowed me to be here. 24:11 Let's make the best of it, 24:13 but let you take control of my life on a daily basis 24:17 that I don't have to worry about. 24:19 - Amen, Jay, we've got just a couple of minutes left. 24:23 Well, actually, probably less than that, 24:24 but what would you share with the folks 24:29 that are watching right now? 24:30 I mean, you've experienced a lot of things. 24:33 What would you share with them? 24:34 What's important? 24:35 The most important thing you know. 24:37 - There's one thing that struck me and I'll make it short, 24:39 so you have the rest of the time. 24:41 You said you had inherited a cursed gene. 24:45 And I thought we all have, 24:47 every one of us has inherited a broken, twisted, bad heart, 24:54 except most of us don't realize it, 24:56 it was brought up front and center in your life. 24:59 Most of us cruise through, are tempted sometimes to think, 25:03 hey, we're doing okay, I'm a good person. 25:07 God needs to bring in front of all of us, 25:09 every day the fact that we need a new heart, 25:13 you were lucky in a way that you got to see it so clearly. 25:19 - Absolutely, I mean, it's yeah, 25:22 I guess it took going through, 25:23 I went through for me to open up and to realize that 25:29 there's a big picture to this. 25:32 And if there's any one thing I can say to individuals is, 25:38 don't take life for granted, 25:40 have a relationship with Christ on a daily basis. 25:43 And I'm telling you, your life will be fulfilled 25:47 because I feel like my life's been fulfilled. 25:49 And I'll tell you there's two texts 25:51 that is very interesting, 25:53 that relates to what I went through. 25:55 The first one is Psalms 73:26. 25:59 My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, 26:02 but God remains the strength of my heart; 26:05 he is mine forever. 26:07 And then there's another one, Ezekiel 36:26. 26:13 And I will give you a new heart, 26:15 I will put a new spirit in you. 26:17 I will take your stony, stubborn heart 26:20 and give you a tender, responsive heart. 26:22 - Amen, Amen. 26:24 - So he took the old physical, stubborn, tired heart away. 26:27 He gave me a new, younger heart. 26:30 It's still used, but in our heart spiritually 26:35 can be stubborn at times too. 26:37 - Yeah, and that Jay 26:38 and we've kinda got to wrap it up, 26:39 and I wanna tell the audience, 26:42 one of my favorite writers says, 26:44 take my heart Lord for I cannot give it. 26:48 That should be the prayer of every one of us. 26:50 Lord, you take my heart, you change me, 26:53 you make me into the new person, really just like Jay. 26:56 Jay, thank you so much for being with us today. 26:58 - Well, thank you. 27:04 - The older I get, the more I realize 27:06 that the years of this life are finite. 27:09 You see, we are born with an incurable disease called death. 27:14 It will happen to all of us unless the Lord comes soon, 27:18 but this was not God's plan, this was the work of the devil, 27:23 but our God has a plan that ends in eternal life 27:27 for those who buy into his plan. 27:29 I have a pamphlet here I'd like to offer you for free. 27:33 Yes, free. 27:34 Go to TalkingDonkeyInternational.org 27:37 and request offer #111. You Can Live Forever. 27:44 (gentle music) 27:48 - Thank you for watching. 27:49 Join us again for another exciting Country Wisdom. 27:51 - See you next time. 27:53 (gentle music) |
