** Find out what Graham is up to today!!! His vision for the world and how you can join-in and be part of the ripple effect that can change the world!
Graham also talks about his:
* Gold Medal from the 1968 Culinary Olympics
* A book he wrote with Treena about the lifecycle of a pair of Salmon that emulates their life together
* A movie that is currently in post-production about his life.
Now that Graham has followed Treena into a life of faith, now what? Start a couples retreat in the Rocky Mountains? Join a Christian cult? Join YWAM and go back into the media? That would be crazy right?
Learn how Graham changed his entire concept of food and how those changes affected his family! Graham talks about Treena's death, and a great story of how she was going to have eggs and tea with Jesus.
Graham talks about his own journey to faith, and how watching people who love Jesus changed his life! Can you imagine a hug from the Holy Spirit? Graham talks about his incredible experience! Find out what happened when Graham brings his new found Christianity into the studio...will heads roll (namely his)?
After the car accident in 1971, Graham is able to limp back into the studio to complete the 1972 series of the "Galloping Gourmet", but it's not the same without Treena. After the show ends, they build a 71' sailboat to sail around the world, but discover that Treena has a mass in one of her lungs.
Spontaneously, Graham purchases a mansion on Chesapeake Bay, hoping this would be a solution to their marriage problems, but Treena has been having frightening visions, and is unable to cope without meds. A young black girl named Ruthie, comes knocking on their door and changes their lives forever!
Graham receives an offer from Fremantle of Canada to perform 650 'Galloping Gourmet' shows! Within 6 weeks, it would reach every city in the U.S., and soon it would go international. However, their kids were in a boarding school back in New Zealand. Eventually, the family would unite in Canada, but Graham and Treena's filming schedule would still take priority. As you can imagine, this caused problems within the family.
Graham talks about his international reputation vs. what he wanted to be known for. Learn what ended the 'Galloping Gourmet' show, and tune into Part 3 to learn where Graham and Treena landed.
Graham talks about his big media start in Australia and how his meteoric rise to fame was more that he could handle. His character was challenged, and he failed his self, and his family in an event that led to a decade of unforgiveness. Enormous success on screen, and 9 1/2 years of misery at home would follow.
My friend Scott Landre has a few weeks left on this earth according to his doctors, but we know God has the final say in everyone's transition into eternity!

You'll be amazed at his faith, hope and excitement for his future.

Steve Tull, Co-Founder and Exec. Director of "Sent Ones International", joins us to share the vision for his ministry in Rwanda. God provided Steve with the vision while visiting the genocide museum in Rwanda. 800,000 Tutsi Rwandans were murdered in 1994 by Hutu extremists.

You are a leader! We are all called to be leaders, no matter what your daily life looks like. God has called you to lead, so don't discount your calling! What does servant leadership look like? Your actions speak louder than words. Do you need a title to be a leader? Are you ready to lead? Look for the opportunities!!!
A church can’t function without people working within the gift of “Helps”, and the heart of a servant. Humility is key to serving… not always easy because our flesh wants to be praised for doing good works! Serving with others creates an incredible bond with those you serve with! As Bob Dylan said: “You’re Gonna have to serve somebody”. Who are you serving today?
For the church to be a fully functioning body, the gift of tongues and the interpretation of tongues needs to be present. The interpretation provides context and understanding to what has been spoken in tongues. Listen to a great story of how tongues, and the interpretation of tongues, led a young woman to the Lord!
Worshiping in a godly language provides us with an unlimited vocabulary for expressing our deepest thoughts. Speaking in tongues provides a unique level of hope as God directs our prayers to where they are needed. Speaking in tongues is a violation of our intellect, but Pastor Judi shares a technique to begin the process of bypassing our mind. How do we make sense of something that makes no sense? I Corinthians 12:31 says we should desire the greater gifts... is tongues one of those? We all have the responsibility to read God's word... that is where the truth resides!
