00:43 >> Welcome to It Is Written 00:45 Canada. 00:45 Last week Mario Roque, our 00:47 special guest, shared his story 00:50 of how, although he was a 00:52 successful business man making 00:53 his first million building 00:55 houses at an early age, he did 00:58 not find the happiness that he 01:00 was searching for. 01:02 >> Mario shared how he ended up 01:04 losing it all, his wife and his 01:07 fortune, and he was even 01:09 $2 million in the hole. 01:12 However, this time of personal, 01:14 emotional, financial, and 01:17 relational despair, became the 01:19 time of his greatest blessing 01:21 when he had a personal 01:23 encounter with God. 01:24 >> Mario is now back this week 01:27 to share with us how he has 01:29 been serving God daily and what 01:31 miracles he has been witnessing 01:34 in his service of the Lord. 01:36 Mario, welcome back to It Is 01:38 Written Canada. 01:40 >> Glad to be back. 01:41 Thank you. 01:41 >> So last week, Mario, you had 01:43 told us about what drives you 01:46 is your desire to expand the 01:49 kingdom of God. 01:50 Tell us how the Lord has been 01:52 leading you and guiding you to 01:54 do that. 01:55 >> One of my first experiences 01:58 with God was... 02:01 with my friend, Lorne. 02:02 We went to a convention, the 02:05 pastor asked us to pray for 02:08 someone near us for healing. 02:11 This friend of mine had myelin 02:15 atrophy, that's where the 02:16 nerves have no coating on them, 02:19 he had been-- 02:20 from his knees down. 02:22 He was on a narcotic patch for 02:25 15 years. 02:27 I prayed for him for just two 02:28 minutes as a brand new 02:30 Christian and he said to me, 02:32 "Mario, it's gone!" 02:34 And I said, "What's gone?" 02:36 And he said, "The pain, it's 02:37 disappeared." 02:39 Of course, ten minutes later I 02:40 had asked him, "How is it?" and 02:42 he said, "Mario, I told you, 02:43 it's gone." 02:44 Half hour later I asked him 02:45 again, "How is it?" he says, 02:47 "Look, I told you, it's gone!" 02:50 And sure enough, til the day he 02:53 died, about a year ago, he had 02:56 no more pain like that. 02:58 It completely vanished. 03:00 >> And he had been suffering in 03:01 pain for how long? 03:02 [MARIO] Fifteen years. 03:05 The... 03:08 The narcotic patch muted the 03:11 pain so it could be bearable 03:14 and he could take a lot of 03:15 pain, Lorne could take a lot of 03:17 pain, but it was 03:19 completely gone. 03:20 The hardest part for him was 03:22 actually getting off the 03:24 medication. 03:25 He did it on his own. 03:27 For 11 days he didn't sleep, he 03:30 was having the shakes, the 03:31 sweats, never told the doctor 03:33 anything til about almost three 03:34 weeks later, took him about two 03:36 months to get rid of the 03:39 residue from the narcotics. 03:42 So he was truly-- it was truly 03:44 a miracle that I experienced 03:46 with him and I praise God 03:48 for that. 03:50 Locally, I've-- the Lord, I 03:52 believe, has inspired me to, of 03:55 course I've supported my local 03:56 church for the last 19, 20 03:59 years, built a church in 04:02 Hamilton, Really Living Church. 04:04 [upbeat musi] 04:06 [MARIO] In the winter of 2016, I 04:08 was inspired to start a nutrient 04:10 dense organic farm 04:12 in Hamilton, Ontario. 04:14 So now we have a market garden, 04:17 green houses, and an orchard. 04:19 We also are doing a lot of 04:21 ministry through the health 04:24 message and we have a 04:25 naturopathic doctor, 04:27 nutritionist, etcetera that 04:28 come and do consultation here, 04:32 we also have a 30 Day in 04:33 Paradise and the first time we 04:36 did that was two years ago. 04:38 There was a young lady that I 04:39 met that looked very distraught 04:41 and didn't look well at all. 04:43 I saw her a few months later, I 04:44 didn't recognize her after she 04:46 took the program. 04:47 So it works very well for a lot 04:49 of people. 04:50 As well as we have at Camp 04:53 Frenda in the Muskokas in 04:55 Ontario, we have a One Week in 04:57 Paradise where we administer to 05:00 about 22 or 23 guests through 05:04 nutrition, we also do some 05:06 spiritual teachings and so on 05:09 and it's been fairly 05:11 successful. 05:12 At the end of the road I would 05:14 love to have an agricultural 05:16 facility here, agrotourism 05:18 facility as well as a wellness 05:20 centre on the property 05:21 to cap off. 05:23 That would be the crown jewel 05:24 of everything we're attempting 05:26 here. 05:26 [upbeat music continues] 05:29 ♪♪ 05:32 [MARIO] I'm involved locally 05:33 like that as well as I've done 05:37 a lot of foreign missions. 05:40 I first got involved where I 05:42 visited a number of times, 05:45 Cuba, Laos, Vietnam, China, and 05:49 I also supported North Korea. 05:52 Five out of the six communist 05:53 countries where it's some of 05:56 the most difficult places to 05:58 preach the gospel because of 05:59 the rules. 06:00 For instance, in Laos, the 06:02 church cannot own churches, 06:04 cannot own property, so we've 06:07 devised certain ways of getting 06:09 around that. 06:11 So I'm, right now I'm just very 06:13 heavily involved in Laos 06:15 primarily although I've 06:16 supported work in Peru through 06:20 ADRA last year and would like 06:24 to support that again and also 06:27 in Belize, I'm supporting 06:29 building onto a school there, 06:32 upgrading the church, there was 06:34 a person there that needed a 06:38 kidney transplant. 06:39 Of course they have no funds so 06:41 I've been supporting 06:41 that family. 06:43 Things like that, but for the 06:45 most part it's been mostly I've 06:47 decided to concentrate on one 06:49 country. 06:50 That's Laos. 06:52 Why Laos? 06:53 Two reasons: A, it's the 06:55 poorest country in the region, 06:58 it's surrounded by, if no one 07:01 knows where Laos is, Cambodia 07:03 on the south, on the west, I 07:05 believe it's west, it's 07:08 Thailand, Vietnam on the other 07:10 side, Myanmar and China, so 07:13 it's around-- it's in the 07:15 centre of all those countries, 07:17 not in the centre, but it 07:19 borders all those countries. 07:21 So I decided to support it for 07:22 two reasons like I mentioned, 07:24 one being because I can trust 07:27 the people there and I 07:29 believe-- they're so 07:30 hard-working, they're just, 07:32 they're totally consecrated to 07:34 the Lord and give their 07:35 lives for that. 07:37 And two... 07:39 ...is again, like I said, 07:41 is because it's the poorest 07:43 country in the region, I always 07:45 love the underdog. [chuckles] 07:47 So that's who they are 07:49 in the region. 07:50 So I've been supporting that 07:51 for about three years now and 07:53 I've made a commitment for five 07:54 years which hopefully it'll be 07:56 forever. 07:59 That's what I'm doing 08:00 right now. 08:02 >> So, Mario, when you go to a 08:04 country like Laos, what do 08:05 these people feel that God has 08:07 done for them? 08:11 >> Well, first of all, they 08:13 find that they have hope. 08:16 I can tell you a few stories 08:17 like that. 08:19 The first time I went there we 08:21 went to some very remote 08:22 village and we ate outside by a 08:26 river, there was a number of 08:29 people there, there was a 08:31 pastor, he's the only one that 08:33 had a Bible, but these people 08:35 wanted to know about the Lord. 08:37 So I actually asked these two 08:39 women, "What has the Lord done 08:41 for you?" and the first one 08:44 said, "I used to be terribly 08:47 afraid to go into the jungle, 08:48 we're right on the edge of the 08:50 jungle actually, and I used to 08:52 be terribly afraid to go into 08:54 the jungle because I thought 08:55 the spirits of the jungle would 08:57 attack me and I would die and I 09:01 don't believe that anymore, I 09:02 believe Jesus is my protector 09:04 and I feel free." 09:07 I asked second person the 09:08 same-- similar question to 09:11 another person, another woman, 09:14 and she said something very 09:16 similar, "I used to be afraid 09:17 of the water, of the river, 09:19 because I thought that it would 09:21 drown me, the spirit would 09:22 drown me," because in Laos 09:25 there have-- they basically 09:28 have two religions, one is 09:30 Buddhism and the other one is 09:33 Spiritism and the believe that 09:36 everything has spirits. 09:38 So the rocks have spirits, the 09:39 jungle has spirits and they can 09:41 attack you or they can-- 09:44 they still sacrifice animals to 09:46 these spirits there. 09:49 So before they build a house, 09:51 they sacrifice animals 09:53 for safety. 09:55 That's how far back 09:57 where they are. 09:59 I've seen a lot of 10:01 stories of hope. 10:03 I visited in a town, a house 10:06 church on Saturday and while I 10:10 was outside, before I went in, 10:11 I could feel the presence of 10:13 God in there and they were 10:14 worshipping God, playing guitar 10:16 and singing in their native 10:18 tongue. 10:19 And I asked them, "Where do 10:21 you-- how did you guys end up 10:23 meeting in this house as a 10:26 church?" and they said, 10:28 "Because we're from the north 10:30 and we've been run out of our 10:32 home and our land because of 10:34 our faith. 10:36 We're not allowed to practice 10:37 our faith so we had to move." 10:40 So that is like a house of 10:41 refuge owned by someone and 10:43 when they come from the north 10:44 they stay there for a while, 10:46 try to find a job. 10:48 So they have hope. 10:52 I also met a young man that was 10:54 leading a house church in a 10:56 village and I notice that there 11:00 were about 40 people in this 11:01 house church and the reason I 11:04 was taken there is because they 11:05 wanted to buy a piece of land 11:08 to build a formal church 11:09 because it was outgrowing the 11:11 house church. 11:13 So I noticed that this young 11:14 man was preaching and most 11:16 family-- most of the people 11:18 there were young families 11:20 except for an old woman. 11:23 And then they told me their 11:24 story that this old woman used 11:29 to travel from there, that's in 11:32 the capital, but it's in the 11:33 outskirts of the capital, take 11:35 her five, six hours to walk 11:37 to church. 11:39 And sometimes some people in 11:42 the church would give her money 11:43 to take a bus part of the 11:45 way home. 11:48 This young man was at one time 11:51 demonically possessed, chained 11:53 to a post outside... 11:57 because they couldn't 11:58 deal with him. 11:58 A lot of people had taken him 12:00 to hospitals, some people had 12:03 prayed for him, this older 12:05 woman prayed for him fervently 12:09 and this was the young man that 12:10 was standing there preaching, 12:12 he was totally healed, had a 12:14 wife, a child, and it was-- 12:16 he was a very happy young man. 12:19 When you see stories like that 12:20 it just breaks your heart and 12:22 you wanna do more because in 12:24 countries like that, dramatic 12:26 things do happen because these 12:28 people are simple people. 12:32 While I was there last time as 12:33 well, I went, we did some 12:38 projects out in the country and 12:40 I asked, there were 12:41 interpreters, "Is there 12:41 mice here?" 12:42 What a silly question. 12:44 And he said, "Of course 12:45 there is, we eat them." 12:48 And he said, "We also eat rats." 12:52 I went to the market, local 12:54 market, 90, 100 degrees 12:57 temperature, in wicker basket 13:01 was bat meat, looked very dark 13:03 to me with flies all around it 13:06 and they were selling that. 13:08 Laos suffered a lot of hunger 13:12 during the war, the Vietnam 13:13 War, and they've never really 13:15 recovered fully with 13:17 enough food. 13:19 So one of the things we did, I 13:21 started there on a full time 13:23 basis about three years ago, 13:26 during COVID they didn't have 13:27 enough food to eat so they 13:29 rented trucks and bought a lot 13:31 of rice and brought it to 13:33 villages to feed these people 13:35 because a lot of 'em could die 13:36 from hunger there. 13:38 It's that desperate. 13:40 So hope, when the people find 13:44 Christ, they definitely have 13:46 hope because living without 13:48 hope, they know they're gonna 13:49 live and die in poverty, live 13:52 and die in an environment where 13:55 there's no medical available, 13:58 no-- not enough food available. 14:01 And if you notice, one of the 14:03 things I notice, everybody 14:05 there is very slim. 14:07 You don't see overweight 14:07 people, especially out 14:08 in the country. 14:09 In the city you see the odd 14:10 person, in the country you 14:11 don't 'cause the simply do not 14:13 have enough food. 14:15 I've seen some of the most 14:16 dedicated people to the gospel 14:19 in places like that. 14:21 Met an older woman, went to her 14:24 house, we had din-- lunch at 14:26 her house. 14:28 Very unusual foods that looked 14:29 like herbs and a lot of very 14:31 unusual vegetarian dishes and 14:36 she used to be in the army at 14:38 one time and was a communist 14:40 supporter and she found the 14:42 Lord and now she preaches the 14:44 gospel, she's the local 14:46 evangelist and she's been to 14:48 prison a number of times, but 14:50 it has never stopped her. 14:52 That's how dedicated some of 14:53 these people are. 14:54 It's incredible. 14:55 They live and breathe 14:57 evangelism and looking after 15:00 one another and so on. 15:02 So in places like that, 15:04 children have no ability to get 15:07 a higher education so one of 15:09 the things we do, we support, 15:11 part of the budget is to 15:13 support students to go to 15:15 Spicer and also to the 15:17 Philippines to study. 15:19 So we have people that are 15:21 becoming doctors and nurses and 15:23 teachers and so-- because there 15:26 is no infrastructure in Laos 15:30 so we're building schools for 15:32 people to learn English, it's 15:33 one way that they use for 15:35 evangelism. 15:36 These large schools, you'd be 15:38 surprised for two, three 15:40 hundred thousand dollars you 15:41 can build a large school 15:42 in Laos. 15:43 And so we're buying land for 15:46 churches, for schools, we're 15:47 building them and giving people 15:49 hope because there is-- in a 15:51 place like that there is 15:52 no hope. 15:53 Their whole-- for generations 15:55 they live and die at a very 15:57 early age. 15:58 The average woman in Laos, I 16:00 don't know exactly what age 16:02 they die, but a lot of them are 16:03 in their 20's and 30's. 16:05 I walked into a village once, 16:08 again, the first time I was 16:10 there, and I noticed it was 16:11 only children, just a couple of 16:13 adults, so we had a service 16:15 there, it was mostly children, 16:16 two adults. 16:17 So I said, "Where are all the 16:19 adults?" 16:19 They're all dead. 16:22 Because they didn't have water 16:25 to drink, good water to drink, 16:27 good sanitation. 16:28 They would go to the bathroom 16:30 in the forest, right next to 16:33 the, I wouldn't even call it a 16:34 river, I was there in the dry 16:36 season so it was very low, very 16:38 brown, and they would go to the 16:40 bathroom next door and then 16:43 they would drink that water and 16:44 it would come from upstream, 16:46 with that kind of material in 16:48 the water as well. 16:50 So they were dying very young 16:51 from gastrointestinal diseases 16:54 because they did not have 16:56 enough water to drink. 16:58 So while it was build there, 17:00 they had water tower, they-- 17:02 bathrooms were built there for 17:06 communal, for women and for 17:07 men, so that they at least-- 17:10 and they were taught some 17:12 hygiene, basic hygiene. 17:14 That's one of the first things 17:15 I noticed in visiting these 17:18 poor, very poor countries, 17:19 hygiene is-- they don't know 17:20 what hygiene is. 17:23 They don't know so they lose 17:24 their teeth very young, they 17:25 die very young, women start-- 17:28 they have nothing to do so they 17:29 get pregnant as soon as they 17:31 are able to and they have too 17:32 many children and they can't 17:34 bear it and they die young. 17:36 So these people need help. 17:38 There was this young lady whose 17:43 husband is a drug addict, she 17:46 had some kind of flesh-eating 17:47 disease on one leg. 17:49 So from the knee down she was in 17:52 excruciating pain over a year. 17:56 No medications, no hospitals, 17:58 no medical, nothing. 18:01 So funds were raised to get her 18:05 leg amputated from the knee 18:07 down, she had that done, I saw 18:10 pictures of her before. 18:12 She looked very, very sad and 18:15 very, like, there was-- you 18:16 could see in her face, the pain 18:18 was coming through. 18:21 Three weeks after the 18:22 operation, three, four weeks, I 18:25 saw her doing some sewing and 18:28 she had the biggest smile on 18:29 her face because all the pain 18:31 was gone and she was 18:33 praising God. 18:35 The other story is local, and 18:37 I've got many story-- I 18:38 probably have a hundred stories 18:39 to tell, but I met a man in his 18:44 early to mid 50's at the farm 18:46 one day and for some reason I 18:49 was inspired to ask him why he 18:52 showed up there and he said 18:54 that he was a very sick person 18:57 and that he came there to buy 18:59 vegetables and so on, he came 19:01 to Paradise Fields to buy 19:02 vegetables. 19:04 And I looked him straight in 19:05 the eye, I said, "God's gonna 19:06 heal you." 19:07 I had no clue what was wrong 19:09 with him. 19:10 Zero. 19:12 So I talked to him on and off 19:13 for about six months, one day 19:15 that friend of mine, Lorne, and 19:18 I visited him, we anointed him 19:22 and asked him if he wanted to 19:23 do Bible studies. 19:25 This was the beginning of COVID 19:27 and we did Bible studies over 19:30 the phone. 19:31 Now, because he was at home all 19:35 the time, he-- let me tell you 19:37 what his problem was, he was 19:40 very depressed and full of 19:42 anxiety, he didn't wanna leave 19:44 the house, didn't wanna be 19:46 around anybody, wasn't 19:48 sleeping, wasn't eating, just 19:51 very, very dysfunctional. 19:54 So we started doing Bible 19:55 studies with him during COVID 19:57 over the phone. 19:58 Now, he's originally from 20:00 Romania, he was a-- back home 20:03 he was a-- he audited banks, 20:08 that's what he did for a 20:09 living, here he worked with the 20:10 handicapped and things like 20:12 that before he got very sick. 20:14 But we started doing Bible 20:16 studies. 20:17 I did 27 Bible studies with him 20:19 over the phone in 27 days. 20:22 [chuckles] 20:23 And then we did prophecy 20:25 studies. 20:26 Now, they were a little bit 20:27 more complicated, there were 32 20:28 lessons and it took longer, so 20:30 that probably took us about two 20:32 months to do 32 lessons. 20:36 He completely changed. 20:37 He started working on the farm 20:38 and his wife tells me the 20:41 reason he's healed is because 20:42 he worked on the farm, because 20:45 of the peace that he found 20:46 there, the birds, the nature. 20:49 He used to tell me he has a 20:51 friend there who's a frog. 20:52 [chuckles] 20:55 And he's completely healed. 20:57 He's one of the happiest 20:59 persons you'll ever-- people 21:00 you'll ever meet. 21:02 And... 21:04 ...that's a miracle in itself 21:07 and it's all because he got to 21:09 know the Lord and he started 21:11 working in an environment where 21:13 there was peace and there was 21:14 nature and he saw God in 21:16 everything. 21:18 And, as a matter of fact, they 21:20 tell me that in Quebec that 21:22 they have a farm like that 21:23 where they send people, the 21:24 government, I think it's the 21:25 government sends people there 21:27 for healing, working on a farm, 21:29 so... 21:29 And we've had a number of 21:30 healings on the farm. 21:32 Our mechanic used to be 21:34 depressed, he no longer has 21:36 meds. [chuckles] 21:38 He's a happy man. 21:40 We had a young lady that used 21:41 to manage the market garden, 21:43 she was all full of anxiety, 21:45 alcoholic, drug-aholic, quit 21:47 all of that, totally normal. 21:50 So I've see miracles 21:52 everywhere, everywhere I've 21:54 seen a lot of-- in foreign 21:55 lands and here. 21:58 >> So, Mario, God has really 22:00 blessed you and you have 22:03 resources that you can use to 22:05 buy things for yourself. 22:08 Are you ever tempted 22:10 to do that? 22:13 >> Not really, I have 22:14 everything I need, I have a 22:15 home here, I've got a property, 22:18 it's a small property in 22:19 Florida, it's a town home, but 22:21 we go there and we go north a 22:24 little bit in the summer. 22:25 That's good enough for me. 22:27 What more do I need? 22:28 My son is of the same opinion. 22:29 Once you have what you need, 22:30 what do you want more for? 22:32 So we only want more for two 22:34 reasons, one is to make sure 22:35 the company is in good 22:37 financial condition, we don't 22:40 wanna-- I don't wanna go 22:41 through that again where it's 22:42 $2 million in the hole so we 22:44 wanna stabilize the company, 22:46 which it's pretty stable now. 22:48 And apart from that, it's for 22:50 the Lord's work. 22:51 So I hope one day soon that we 22:53 can do 50, 60, 70% of the funds 22:58 for that Lord and that could be 23:00 a tremendous amount of money 23:02 and-- because after all, I take 23:04 it literally, this all belongs 23:05 to Him. 23:06 I'm just His steward 23:07 and I take it literally. 23:09 It's not about me. 23:10 He's blessed me in so many 23:13 ways, I thank Him every day 23:14 when I think about how He's 23:16 blessed me, not just 23:18 financially, but emotionally, 23:20 relationally, friendships, 23:24 peace in my life and I want 23:26 that for the whole world, so if 23:28 I can be a little bit of help 23:30 in that area, I'm willing to do 23:32 what it takes. 23:34 >> Mario, a last question that 23:36 I have for you is maybe there's 23:39 someone who is in a condition 23:42 like you were where you felt 23:45 like you were in your deepest 23:46 despair and they feel like it's 23:50 just too dark, how do I get out 23:53 of this? 23:54 What would you say to them? 23:57 >> I've seen a lot of 23:58 experiences like that so I can 23:59 speak from experience. 24:00 None of these are just stories 24:02 that I read, these are from 24:03 experience. 24:05 Where people are in that kind 24:06 of condition, they have come 24:08 totally out of it and today 24:10 they seek the Lord with all 24:11 their heart, they've tried and 24:13 they've had some help, some 24:16 people helping them. 24:17 And I can tell you a lot of 24:18 stories like that where people 24:21 were going to die from MS, 24:23 today perfectly healthy. 24:27 Was in a wheelchair in their 24:30 late 30's with three children, 24:31 today's totally healthy. 24:33 So I can... 24:36 There is no such thing as 24:37 despair with the Lord. 24:39 You can despair, but if you 24:40 reach out to God and ask Him to 24:43 come in your life and start 24:44 pursuing the Lord, He will work 24:46 miracles in your life, too. 24:50 No question in my mind. 24:51 I'm 100% convinced. 24:53 I've experienced hundreds of 24:55 stories so I believe all of 24:58 that. [laughs] 24:59 With all my heart. 25:00 >> And when you see it first 25:02 hand, you have faith... 25:04 [MARIO] Oh, yes. 25:05 [MIKE] ...that God is faithful. 25:06 >> Yes, yes, yeah. 25:08 [MIKE] Mario, I wonder if you 25:09 could pray for our viewers, 25:12 there are many who are 25:15 listening and they want their 25:16 faith to grow and can you pray 25:19 for them right now? 25:21 >> Certainly. 25:21 Heavenly Father, it is a 25:25 terrible thing to be in despair. 25:27 I've been there. 25:28 I have witnessed hundreds of 25:29 people being in that condition. 25:32 It is a terrible thing, Lord. 25:33 But all who reach out to You 25:35 earnestly from the heart, 25:37 You can heal. 25:39 You are Jehovah-Rophe, the Lord 25:41 is our Healer. 25:42 By Your stripes we are healed. 25:44 Those are not just words on the 25:46 pages of the Bible, 25:48 that is real. 25:49 God is the same yesterday, 25:51 today, and tomorrow. 25:53 When Jesus was on earth, He 25:54 healed everyone that came in 25:55 contact with Him, that reached 25:57 out to Him. 25:58 It's no different today. 25:59 If you reach out to the Lord, 26:02 there's no question in my mind, 26:03 if you do it from your heart, 26:05 He will heal whatever is 26:07 missing in your life and He 26:09 will give you peace and joy 26:11 because in God's presence there 26:12 is fullness of joy. 26:15 Amen. 26:17 [MIKE & RENÈ] Amen. 26:18 >> Mario, thank you so much for 26:20 having us here at your 26:21 beautiful home and for sharing 26:24 your wonderful story with us. 26:27 >> You're quite welcome. 26:28 I hope it inspires others to 26:32 raise their heads high in the 26:34 Lord and I hope everyone that 26:37 is listening today that they 26:39 would have a healing 26:40 in their life. 26:43 >> In the Bible, Jesus 26:45 essentially defined eternal 26:47 life in these two words, 26:49 "Knowing God." 26:51 Not simply knowing about God, 26:54 but actually knowing Him, 26:56 having a personal and positive 26:59 relationship with Him. 27:01 [MIKE] So our free offer for 27:03 you today is the book, 27:04 To Know God. 27:06 This book will walk you through 27:08 a practical step-by-step plan 27:11 for growing closer to Jesus and 27:13 knowing God as your personal 27:15 and eternal friend. 27:19 [VOICE OVER] To receive today's 27:20 offer, you can simply go to our 27:22 website at iiw.ca and click on 27:25 the "News and Offers" tab. 27:27 Again, it's iiw.ca. 27:30 You can also call us at 27:31 1-888-CALL-IIW. 27:37 >> Before you go, we would like 27:39 to invite you to follow us on 27:41 Instagram and Facebook and 27:43 subscribe to our YouTube 27:45 channel and also listen to our 27:47 Podcasts. 27:48 And if you go to our website, 27:50 you can see our latest 27:52 programs. 27:53 [RENÈ] You, too, can experience 27:55 the spirit of life found in the 27:57 words of Jesus when He said, 28:00 "It is written, 'Man shall not 28:02 live by bread alone, but by 28:05 every word that proceeds out of 28:07 the mouth of God.'" 28:11 [MARIO] They have about two to 28:13 three times more antioxidants, 28:16 minerals, and vitamins than 28:19 blueberries. 28:22 [stringed instrument playing 28:23 the tune Amazing Grace] 28:25 ♪♪ |
