If you've never been in addiction. And I tell people this 27 00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:59.480 all the time that I know have never been in addiction. Uh, it 28 00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:01.799 starts out perhaps having a good time. You know, let's party, let's 29 00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:07.480 party, And it starts out that way, especially with like meth. First 30 00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:09.840 couple times, I mean it's it's a rock and roll baby, I mean, 31 00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:14.280 do it. But then after that it's like the devil has his claws 32 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:17.120 in you, and that third time you come into that, I mean you're 33 00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:21.599 hooked already. And the way I try to explain it to people is this, 34 00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:29.240 there's a it's demonic, but there's this gnawing and clawing and scratching and 35 00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:32.919 digging on the inside of you that's driving you to cause you to need that 36 00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:38.360 next fix. It already went beyond party. Let's have fun to an addiction 37 00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.919 to where you will do anything that it takes to get that next fix. 38 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:47.199 Shiloh jokingly but sadly. At the same time, she jokingly says that she 39 00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:53.039 pondered her mama's gold tooth when she was in her addiction. You know, 40 00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:55.800 it will get that personal will. You will hurt the ones you love the 41 00:02:55.800 --> 00:03:00.800 most and yet justify it some way. But what we're trying to do, 42 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:05.840 what we're trying to do get real ministries, is we have the answer. 43 00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:09.840 The answer is Jesus Christ. But not only that, we have associates that 44 00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:16.520 come along the side with us for rehab facilities and addiction facilities and things such 45 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:22.800 as that. So the reason that we're having this March against meth slash Fentanyl 46 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:27.439 event is so that the people of Bartlesville will know, Hey, there's somebody 47 00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:31.240 out there that actually cares. Now, they may not remember all the resources 48 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:36.919 that show up for the event, but they'll remember get real ministries had something 49 00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:39.800 going on, and I heard somebody say that they can help me out in 50 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:43.919 this addiction, or I heard somebody say they can help me out with a 51 00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.080 little bit of food or some clothes, and they'll know where to come to 52 00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.400 and then we can guide them and direct them to where they need to go. 53 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:54.039 And that has happened over and over and over and over and over and 54 00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.879 over again. And I don't want to be like, hey, we're the 55 00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:01.400 hero of the town, because we're not. We're working into conjunction with other 56 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:05.919 amazing resources here in Bartlesville. You know, we try to hold hands with 57 00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:11.680 any and everyone that's trying to reach out to better Bartlesville. We have some 58 00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:15.439 amazing sponsors, amazing partners. You guys here at the radio station, the 59 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.120 Potter family, you guys go above and beyond helping us out. Painted Horse, 60 00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:25.800 Oh my goodness, the Hamburger meat that's supplied each month by Painted Horse. 61 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:28.639 I'm going to start naming names. I'm gonna forget some of the most 62 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.000 important people, and I'll be in trouble for doing that. But anyway, 63 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:38.600 it's an amazing event and it's open to the public. Now. Not only 64 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:44.319 not only are there going to be testimonies from people people that have themselves come 65 00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:47.399 out of addictions or have had family members come out of addictions, but O 66 00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:56.079 Sage Nation O Sage Indian tribe O Sage Nation is also providing Narcan, which 67 00:04:56.199 --> 00:05:00.879 Narcan is the antidote if you will to overdose for fentanyl. It'll save your 68 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:03.560 life. It will save your life. And they're going to supply us with 69 00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:10.600 an abundant amount of Narcan for us to hand out. Now, once again, 70 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.199 I want to say, this event is open to all of Bartlesville. 71 00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:16.279 And you may be listening to this program you're thinking, well, I don't 72 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:20.240 have an addiction problem, nobody in my family has an addiction problem. Well 73 00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:25.160 you may not have, but your family member may be hiding it quite well. 74 00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.480 And what I want to say is this narc and everybody everyone should carry 75 00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:33.519 Narkin with him, whether you're an addiction or not, because you never know. 76 00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:39.399 And the great thing about narcan if you think somebody is having an overdose 77 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.560 episode, the great thing about narkn you can go ahead and administer it, 78 00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:46.959 and it's it's a nasal spray. It's not a shot. You don't use 79 00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:49.560 a needle. It's a nasal spray. You can go ahead and use it. 80 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:55.079 Even if it's not a drug overdose. It will not hurt the person. 81 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:59.040 All that does is neutralize the effects of fen exactly exactly, So it's 82 00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:01.319 a win win sitch, you know. First thing you do, of course, 83 00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.000 is called nine to one one, you know, and then administer the 84 00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:10.240 narcan. But everyone needs to carry an ar can, and we encourage our 85 00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.720 people that are living on the streets, are strung out or whatever it may 86 00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:17.240 be. Everybody carries a backpack and we want to make sure that everyone has 87 00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:24.079 a dose of narcan in their backpack to take care of one another. Indeed, 88 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:28.279 indeed, this is really something else. You've got the Jesus Burger where 89 00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:32.399 you can feed you're telling me feed your body. You've got the worship that 90 00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:38.160 will take care of feeding your soul. Yes, and then in case of 91 00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:43.639 an emergency, you've got something there to take care of what needs to be 92 00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.600 taken care of in it. Absolutely, so there's a lot of there's a 93 00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:49.399 lot of upside going. Oh, yes, and clothes for the need each 94 00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:54.720 other. Yes, yes, So we have a clothing ministry right across from 95 00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:58.040 the church, we have a food ministry. The clothing ministry I call it 96 00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.360 Little Dillard's Marty, and the ladies at the church. I mean you you 97 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:09.000 walk into this building and everything is organized, I mean sizes and colors and 98 00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:13.759 shapes and seasons and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So the 99 00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.920 thing is amazing how well organized it is. And then we've got the ladies 100 00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:21.120 that take care of the food pantry where we hand out the food bags. 101 00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.319 I mean, they've got everything organized. It's almost like walking into homeland or 102 00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:30.399 is it homeland outdowns, Yeah, okay, safe Way, Homeland, whatever 103 00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.360 it may be. It's like walking into the grocery store. I mean, 104 00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:36.319 we've got people that have been there, have been in these addictions, have 105 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:42.480 been living on the streets. We've got so many success stories of people that 106 00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.279 are just there to help. They want to serve, they want to help 107 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:50.079 other people get back to a sense of normality. You know, what's normal. 108 00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:55.279 What's normal for me may not be normal for well, probably for anybody, 109 00:07:55.319 --> 00:08:01.839 but well, you know, the thing is that. I guess it 110 00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:11.480 was a couple of years ago when we were doing some publicity things at Crossing. 111 00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:16.759 Second, you brought some people who had recently been in places that most 112 00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:20.879 places, most people haven't been, and they are now amongst what you would 113 00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:26.720 call or a society would deem the normal, and in fact highly normal and 114 00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:31.159 highly functioning, and in fact they take care of some business there at the 115 00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:37.440 get Real Ministries. Earned that position of a responsibility. And that's the key 116 00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.799 phrase earned. You know, it's sad, they'll tell you they earned it. 117 00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:43.279 It's sad to say, but you know, you have to prove yourself. 118 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:48.480 I'm not going to let us whosoever will walk into the ministry and have 119 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:52.720 a position. I mean, the word of God tells us to know those 120 00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.559 who labor among you. And we have known a lot of people that are 121 00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:01.039 now serving at get Real Ministries for a number of years and they are on 122 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:07.039 fire. They are on fire to yeah, and they can relate to folks 123 00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.879 who do have problems, they can relate to folks who don't have problems. 124 00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.759 They've been on both sides of that equation and they know where the equalizer is. 125 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:22.720 Absolutely the Lord Jesus, absolutely so that the jail ministry. We're getting 126 00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:28.679 fired back up on the jail ministry once again. And and Derek Maynard, 127 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:33.200 Derek and Ergie, but Derek's going to head up the jail ministry. He 128 00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.879 was there for he visited there for a while and they started a prayer group, 129 00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.080 a Bible study group while he was in there, and they call it 130 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:46.840 the God Pod. And the God Pod is still continuing. So he has, 131 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:50.440 if you will, in society's eyes, I hate say that phrase, 132 00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:54.360 but he has earned his way back into graces. Well, they're going to 133 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.000 allow him to come in now. He was once a resident there, but 134 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:01.320 they're gonna allow him to come in now and continue on with the Bible study 135 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:05.840 and the prayer group. So you know, that's just one of many, 136 00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:09.159 many, many success stories. Wow, it is and it truly is. 137 00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:15.559 And you know, I hope someday that folks, if you haven't heard his 138 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:20.039 testimony, you haven't heard his story, do yourself a favor and get to 139 00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.759 a point where you can because if you know, if this fella can make 140 00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:30.440 it, you can do it. So we've got another gentleman, Mario Russo. 141 00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.879 Street Man. He was street, he was street all the way our 142 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.440 core now hardcore.

I had 145 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.720 ministered to him on the side for about three years and finally we got him 146 00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:56.279 locked or into a place where we could minister to him. And he is 147 00:10:56.360 --> 00:11:03.559 now finishing his second year reign of Bible College. Wow, yes, finish 148 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:05.600 it. He's getting ready to graduate in May from his second year of RAMA 149 00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:09.320 Bible College. And I spoke to him one day at the church. I 150 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.279 said, Mario, I said, my friend, I see you going to 151 00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.200 ram a Bible Institute. And he said, boy, that would be amazing. 152 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.799 I said not only that, I said, I can see you going 153 00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:22.279 full time. Not only going full time, I said, I see you 154 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.600 living on the property, and I see you working there as a job. 155 00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:30.480 I see your tuition paid in full.

And then once the water 171 00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:41.120 baptism start, we've had as many as eighteen people line up for water baptism. 172 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:46.440 Why is water baptism important? I believe it's important because Christ and Jesus 173 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:52.080 instituted it. He said, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing 174 00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.559 them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. 175 00:12:54.919 --> 00:13:00.840 So I believe water baptism an easy way to say that it's an outward expression 176 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:07.039 of an inward commitment you've made to Christ Jesus well put, and you never 177 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.639 know, you just never know how many baptisms will take place. Now, 178 00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:15.279 it was kind of chilly last year, and we we had like eight yes, 179 00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.759 yes, yes, when we were downtown at the Unity Square. I 180 00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:24.360 mean, brother, it was cold there. My little chubby yourself was playing 181 00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:26.559 a guitar, and I'm thinking, well, they got they got the tank 182 00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:31.200 out there. I don't sit any here. Oh no, And by got 183 00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:33.960 the eight people did and they there today they'll testify and tell you that was 184 00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:39.559 the best. Absolutely speaking of our friend, most of them did that day. 185 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.399 Our friend Kevin Oles. I happened to come by the creamery yesterday and 186 00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.799 I see his car there. And Kevin every day every Thursday at noon he 187 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:52.279 sets up at the creamery. Yeah, from noon to three at the creamery, 188 00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.080 playing music and just eleven on people and and sharing he and his family, 189 00:13:56.120 --> 00:14:00.320 sharing smiles and sharing Jesus with people. It was amazing. So I 190 00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.399 stopped in vistor with him for a while, and on my way out, 191 00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:05.200 I said, play me a song, piano man, and he did. 192 00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:09.000 And he did play piano man.
