  1. 0:01Darkness is not an affirmative force.
  2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
  3. 0:07This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
  4. 0:12It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
  5. 0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
  6. 0:18And the philosophies of this world.
  7. 0:21God has called you and me to be his ambassador.
  8. 0:24Even in this dark moment.
  9. 0:27Let's not miss our moment.
  10. 0:29And now, the Hamilton Corner.
  11. 0:33Good evening, everyone.
  12. 0:35Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
  13. 0:37My name is Abraham Hamilton the third.
  14. 0:40I am the host of this program.
  15. 0:42I am joined, thankfully, by the corner contingent.
  16. 0:48The people that make the wheels on this bus go round and round.
  17. 0:52I know I'm on the mic and I'm, you know,
  18. 0:55up front on the video, but without the people behind the scenes,
  19. 0:58man, we wouldn't be able to get this show done.
  20. 0:59I'm telling you.
  21. 1:00So I am grateful for right across from me as usual while my man One hundred grand.
  22. 1:04Mr Bobby.
  23. 1:07S I, and then the screening reduced extraordinary often imitated,
  24. 1:11never duplicated.
  25. 1:15Not successfully that is to real Jay Mac ladies and gentlemen,
  26. 1:19and we're ready to rock and roll.
  27. 1:20With the day's addition of the program.
  28. 1:23First thing I got to say,
  29. 1:26I'm not trying to say I told you so,
  30. 1:28but if you saw Prime Minister Beebe Netanyahu came out pretty forcefully against this so-called
  31. 1:37ceasefire deal. We'll get into that. The confirmation hearings continue on Capitol Hill.
  32. 1:46A former North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum has been nominated to be the Secretary of the Interior.
  33. 1:51Yes, Scott Besant, which I am greatly concerned about,
  34. 1:55the nominated to be the Treasury Secretary and who my name is John Radcliffe,
  35. 2:01Representative Radcliffe is nominated to be the CIA Director. They all had confirmation hearings today.
  36. 2:06But before we get to any of that, I want to remind you, just as I do on a daily basis,
  37. 2:13because at this very moment, many of you, if not most of you, are making your transition
  38. 2:18from your part-time jobs where you generate an income to your full-time jobs where you cultivate
  39. 2:23an outcome and I articulate this notion in this way intentionally in an effort to aid us
  40. 2:28in recalibrating our thought processes.
  41. 2:31Our culture is wired to make us think in terms of our income generation being our full-time
  42. 2:39jobs as well as synonymous with our identities.
  43. 2:43How often are people measured by, well, what do you do for a living and what do you do for
  44. 2:49a living?
  45. 2:50Income generation is important, but it's not synonymous with identity.
  46. 2:53And frankly, for Christ's followers, our full-time jobs,
  47. 2:58it's outcome cultivation, vis-a-vis the Great Commission.
  48. 3:02As the Scripture unfolds it, the Lord's instruction to us is to recognize
  49. 3:07that the outcome cultivation must begin at home. So often, we neglect the home in an effort to be
  50. 3:16faithful, fruitful, and effective everywhere else.
  51. 3:19And we allow the home to be secondary, if not a tertiary concern, but it's to Lord's will,
  52. 3:27and my hope and encouragement for this audience to restructure that notion and recognize, and
  53. 3:33what we do in our homes is of utmost importance because what goes on in your house is far,
  54. 3:40far, far more important, far more important than what goes on in the White House.
  55. 3:47We have a full show today.
  56. 3:49We've been talking about pre-born this entire week.
  57. 3:52I am looking forward to having pre-borns executive director on the program today.
  58. 3:57We have a full show, but let's begin as we do in the word of God.
  59. 4:02Joshua chapter four is where I want to go.
  60. 4:05And I want to take my time in describing this because this has been something that's been
  61. 4:09heavy on my heart in so many, so many ways, but I'm going to start with the scripture and
  62. 4:15unpack what I mean. Joshua chapter four, this is a critical portion of scripture for us verses
  63. 4:22one through seven and this is what God's word says. Now, when all the nation had finished
  64. 4:29crossing the Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua saying, take for yourselves 12 men from the
  65. 4:34people, one man from each tribe and command them saying, take up for yourselves 12 stones
  66. 4:40from here out of the middle of the Jordan, from the place where the priests feet are standing
  67. 4:46firm and carry them over with you and lay them down in the lodging place where you will lodge
  68. 4:51tonight. So Joshua called the twelve men whom he had appointed from the sons of Israel, one
  69. 4:57man from each tribe. And Joshua said to them, cross again to the ark of the Lord your God
  70. 5:02in the middle of the Jordan. And each of you take up a stone on his shoulder according to
  71. 5:06the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel. Let this be a sign among you so that when,
  72. 5:14when your children ask later, saying, What do these stones mean to you? Then you shall say to them
  73. 5:20because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord.
  74. 5:24When it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off, so these stones shall be
  75. 5:29a memorial to the sons of Israel forever. Now the events should be obvious, but just in case,
  76. 5:36It's not clear what's happening here. This is when Joshua led the Israelites into the promised land,
  77. 5:42crossing over the Jordan River to begin taking the promised land. Similar to what happened in the
  78. 5:50Red Sea, the waters rolled back as the Ark of the Covenant was sent first into the waters.
  79. 5:56And I want you to note something. Whose idea was it in the first place? As this is going on,
  80. 6:01You can imagine the huge quantity of people that are involved.
  81. 6:04You have fighting men, soldiers that are crossing over the Jordan River.
  82. 6:10But notice it was God who instructed Joshua to erect a memorial immediately.
  83. 6:17And he stated that the memorial was intentionally put in place to provoke inquiry for subsequent generations of Israelites.
  84. 6:29He explained that this memorial is placed here to provoke inquiry from the latter generations
  85. 6:38so that they can be oriented appropriately to the genesis of this land being Israel, the
  86. 6:47genesis of it being a sovereign display of God's potency in that there is not a person
  87. 6:57on the earth who could accomplish what Yahweh did sovereignly in rolling the waters, cutting
  88. 7:05off the waters at the Jordan River. The memorial's purpose, and again, this was God directing
  89. 7:12Joshua to do this. The memorial's purpose was to provoke inquiry to direct subsequent generations
  90. 7:18of Israelites to the founding reality of God with us, if you will, God with them in our day
  91. 7:27in our time and I've talked before toward the end of the year, people like Richard Dawkins
  92. 7:32start saying things like, he's a cultural Christian. You have more and more people coming
  93. 7:36out describing themselves as cultural Christians and simply put this no such thing as a cultural
  94. 7:42Christian in terms of orthodox reality. But what he's saying is very well after Richard
  95. 7:47Dawkins has spent his life advocating for atheism, he didn't consider the ultimate conclusion of
  96. 7:57his ideology that if people actually believe what he believes, it will result in a godless
  97. 8:02humanity. And then the things he likes about humanity, which actually have their, dare I
  98. 8:08say trappings, truthfully, it is the foundations of which are rooted in a worldview that was
  99. 8:15propounded solely by biblical Christianity. You know, he got in his British accent as I
  100. 8:23I like the cathedrals and I like Christmas.
  101. 8:27And you like all these, you like the idea of liberty,
  102. 8:32of the value of the individual.
  103. 8:33All of these ideas were foreign to the history of humanity,
  104. 8:41prior to a biblical worldview,
  105. 8:44taking root, establishing the foundation
  106. 8:46of what became Western civilization.
  107. 8:49You know, Augustine, city of God,
  108. 8:52Yes, that's Augustine the theologian and apologist.
  109. 8:57And the concept of individual liberty is connected directly to the biblical notion of the Amago
  110. 9:02Day.
  111. 9:03I've explained it on this program before.
  112. 9:05The value of the individual is directly connected to the biblical notion of the Amago Day and
  113. 9:14the protection of the God given unalienable rights to the individual, which I would remind
  114. 9:24you that must include the unborn. The preamble to the United States Constitution says that we are
  115. 9:30seeking to establish, to preserve for ourselves and our posterity, a nation to secure the blessings
  116. 9:39of liberty. There's no posterity without children. All of this is connected. And so what has happened
  117. 9:47by and large in our society, and this is something that I've been just pondering, meditating over
  118. 9:51and even really lamenting in many ways that many of us, we have inherited an America as
  119. 10:01a, as the most prominent feature of Western civilization without vigorous and vigilant
  120. 10:11contending for the foundations of what created a man.
  121. 10:15This is why I often say it's so easy for people who have been born and raised in this country
  122. 10:19and they say very casually negative things about our nation, but you speak to people who
  123. 10:22who come to our nation from other nations
  124. 10:24and I have personally witnessed foreigners
  125. 10:27get off transportation mechanisms
  126. 10:29and physically kiss the ground when they arrive.
  127. 10:32You know, to say it in a different way,
  128. 10:33I don't see people risking life and limb
  129. 10:35to make it over into Cuba.
  130. 10:38I don't see that.
  131. 10:40I don't see that.
  132. 10:41I don't see people scurrying
  133. 10:43and selling all their possessions
  134. 10:46and trying to hire a coyote to help them
  135. 10:48get into Venezuela.
  136. 10:49I don't see that happening.
  137. 10:52but lots of us who are here.
  138. 10:54And I would add into this consideration,
  139. 10:56not just people in America and citizens of this country,
  140. 10:59but I would also add the believer,
  141. 11:00the professing believer in our country.
  142. 11:05We might recognize that we have the capacity
  143. 11:06to have free access to church attendance,
  144. 11:08but we don't think about why, we don't think about how.
  145. 11:11And it is added in many ways to
  146. 11:16a laziness in some instances concerning the faith,
  147. 11:21manifested by a lack of curiosity.
  148. 11:24The Lord calls all believers to be theologians.
  149. 11:27Every believer should know what we believe.
  150. 11:30Every believer should know why we believe it.
  151. 11:32Every believer is tasked with being able to communicate
  152. 11:35that responsibly and effectively to the world around us.
  153. 11:41But because of the prevalence of cultural Christianity,
  154. 11:46we haven't really had to ask.
  155. 11:49And so when you have things where you have people
  156. 11:51that are asking substantive questions,
  157. 11:54I can't tell you the number of times
  158. 11:56when I've talked to people who presented themselves to me
  159. 11:59as if they have abandoned the faith
  160. 12:01is because at various stages in their lives and developments,
  161. 12:03they've had significant substantive questions
  162. 12:07that simply have gone unanswered.
  163. 12:09And I'm not sitting here telling you,
  164. 12:10I know every answer to every question,
  165. 12:14but I will share what I know,
  166. 12:15and I will continue to be a student
  167. 12:18of the faith description commands me,
  168. 12:20to show myself to acquit myself as a workman approved,
  169. 12:24rightly dividing the word of truth
  170. 12:25with indicates that there is a wrong way
  171. 12:27to approach the word of truth.
  172. 12:30But if I don't know the answer,
  173. 12:31I have a duty to seek it out.
  174. 12:34And there have been many young person
  175. 12:36who had legitimate questions,
  176. 12:39not because whatever issue they're presenting is true,
  177. 12:43but they have legitimate questions
  178. 12:44as to what's necessary for their faith
  179. 12:46to be made their own,
  180. 12:48and they were derisively or dismissively say,
  181. 12:50oh, you just got to have faith.
  182. 12:56Or that's another good point.
  183. 12:58Or they will simply offer the,
  184. 13:01I said this way, an insufficient answer.
  185. 13:03So what I'm saying is that we don't have the luxury,
  186. 13:07what's happened is that the comfortable negligence
  187. 13:12and lack of rigorous individual,
  188. 13:16hungering and thirsting for righteousness
  189. 13:19and to know who we serve, what we believe,
  190. 13:21why we believe it.
  191. 13:23Over time, it manifested itself in a more comfortable
  192. 13:26Christianity, the way I tell this story often
  193. 13:30that in a well-church portion of the country,
  194. 13:31I would ask people how they came to faith in Christ
  195. 13:34and they wouldn't understand the question
  196. 13:35I'm asking their answer to me would be,
  197. 13:37oh, I've been a member of this church all my life.
  198. 13:39And I would simply say, thank you for telling me
  199. 13:41the church you've been a member of,
  200. 13:42but would you share with me how Jesus saved you?
  201. 13:45And they would look at me with the most curious look like,
  202. 13:48what do you mean?
  203. 13:48I just told you, I've been a member of beds,
  204. 13:50I've baptized this for 25 years.
  205. 13:52And I would simply respond, I said, I appreciate that.
  206. 13:56But church membership is not synonymous with being born again.
  207. 14:00And he would look at me so great, like,
  208. 14:02curiously, my simple point is there's a reason
  209. 14:05why God directed Joshua to erect the memorial, to provoke the inquiry so that each generation
  210. 14:11of Israelite would understand the substance of who they were and what they would believe
  211. 14:16and ultimately what was the source and the basis for their national formation.
  212. 14:21And I am saying similarly, each generation of believer has a responsibility to know what
  213. 14:26we believe, to know why we believe it and to be able to reasonably articulate that to
  214. 14:30world around us because it is only when we are there and we have a collective investment
  215. 14:36in the execution of our Lord's commission that we will be able to not only enjoy the fruits
  216. 14:44of what a biblical world view can provide for us, but we will enjoy the robustness of
  217. 14:50vibrant relationship with Christ Jesus where he truly to each one of us, he is our prize.
  218. 15:01a discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
  219. 15:04Time reading and meditating on God's word is so valuable.
  220. 15:09It blesses you in ways that you and I don't fully comprehend.
  221. 15:13But remember this, when you're reading the word of God,
  222. 15:15you're spending time with Jesus.
  223. 15:17You're spending time in the presence of Jesus.
  224. 15:19Jesus is touching you, ministering to you,
  225. 15:22giving you wisdom, insight, and the knowledge of God.
  226. 15:26And let me say to every parent listening again,
  227. 15:28Having a child to read the word out loud to you every day,
  228. 15:31I can't overemphasize how important that very important
  229. 15:34spiritual habit is in your home for you and your family as well.
  230. 15:38Remember when the child is reading the word of God out loud to you.
  231. 15:42They're spending time with Jesus.
  232. 15:44Jesus is touching their life.
  233. 15:46He's ministering to them.
  234. 15:47He's pouring grace, peace, and light into your child's heart and mind.
  235. 15:52Nothing will bless your child more than the powerful word of God.
  236. 16:04Shining light into the darkness.
  237. 16:07This is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
  238. 16:11Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton.
  239. 16:13The third here I am delighted to have joining me again
  240. 16:16on the program.
  241. 16:17I can't say she's new to the corner
  242. 16:19because she's been here before.
  243. 16:20None other than the executive director of Preborn,
  244. 16:24this Roxy Lamborghis.
  245. 16:27Make sure I got that right.
  246. 16:29I'm so excited to have you on the program
  247. 16:31because we've been talking all week about Preborn
  248. 16:34and a necessity of in our execution of salt and light duty,
  249. 16:38being salt and light in an effort to protect
  250. 16:41the most vulnerable among us, which is unborn children,
  251. 16:44including their moms and really as many family members
  252. 16:48that are involved in the process.
  253. 16:50And what you do at Preborn is so vital.
  254. 16:53So I'm glad that you were able to join us here
  255. 16:55on the program and you as Executive Director of Preborn,
  256. 16:58you manage a team of 75 passionate pro-life people
  257. 17:03and you serve along with the president of preborn.
  258. 17:05Thank you for joining us here on the Hamilton Corner.
  259. 17:08Thank you for having us.
  260. 17:09We're excited to have this week with you all.
  261. 17:11Yeah, it is one of the things that I look forward to,
  262. 17:15which is the work we do together
  263. 17:17because it's such a vital, vital work.
  264. 17:20And in the times of the post-dobs world that we're living in
  265. 17:25and the transition from surgical abortions
  266. 17:28being the preeminent mechanism of termination
  267. 17:33to chemical abortions, the work that you all do
  268. 17:36is so vital in this moment.
  269. 17:37Would you just share with the audience a little bit
  270. 17:39about what preborn is and what it is that you guys do?
  271. 17:43Yeah, so preborn is a national pro-life
  272. 17:45evangelical ministry.
  273. 17:46Our focus is simple, save lives and win souls for Jesus.
  274. 17:51And really that's what we champion.
  275. 17:53And we do it by providing free ultrasound skins
  276. 17:57to moms across the nation for free.
  277. 18:00So she has an opportunity to hear the baby's heartbeat
  278. 18:03for the first time that doppel search hands of choosing life.
  279. 18:07And then it opens an opportunity for us as well
  280. 18:10to share the truth about the gospel message of Jesus Christ.
  281. 18:14In fact, last year we saw more than 61,000 babies saved
  282. 18:18and more than 8,500 confessions of faith.
  283. 18:22Wow, that is fantastic.
  284. 18:25And I love how you combine the ultrasound opportunity
  285. 18:30with the gospel presentation
  286. 18:32because frankly, in a lot of places, you won't get that.
  287. 18:34You won't hear that.
  288. 18:35And so I'm so excited to know that that is something
  289. 18:38that you all do.
  290. 18:40So we are in this week, and I think it's important
  291. 18:42because again, I announced to introduce you
  292. 18:44as a preborn executive director,
  293. 18:46but would you just share with the audience a bit,
  294. 18:48what was it about preborn that drew you
  295. 18:50to use your talents and abilities
  296. 18:52to really serve the Lord frankly
  297. 18:54through your work in this ministry?
  298. 18:58As simple as it sounds, it was a genuine straight call.
  299. 19:02I knew in a season of praying and fasting
  300. 19:06that I was called out and the Lord ministered to my heart
  301. 19:09to quit my job, saying nothing.
  302. 19:12But I prayed, I saw, I fasted, I sought mentorship.
  303. 19:15I submitted it to my pastors.
  304. 19:18And they all said, like, I think the Lord is calling you.
  305. 19:20So I quit my job and through a series of divine
  306. 19:23providential events, I ended up at the doors of freeborn.
  307. 19:25Go figure, that was 10 years ago.
  308. 19:27Oh, wow, wow.
  309. 19:29That decade seems like it's flown by.
  310. 19:31I'm saying that I'm pretty sure you might have a different take on it. I don't know.
  311. 19:38So with this and you mentioned that the ultrasound that are offered to these moms is free. I mean,
  312. 19:45it's free to them, but it's not necessarily free. I mean, somebody has to pay for it. And
  313. 19:52so that's where I think we can come in here at AFR in this audience to help provide those
  314. 19:57resources to make those ultrasounds available, how can people listening participate in that?
  315. 20:02Yes, and number one, we just invite you because it's so important. Again, it's one of the things,
  316. 20:10the tools that God has given us that allows her to choose life and $28 helps provide one
  317. 20:18ultrasound for a mom $140 will provide five ultrasound scans for free to that mother.
  318. 20:27And you could give one time, you could give monthly or if the Lord is blessed and you want
  319. 20:34to sow a just a leadership gift of $5,000 in sponsor a day of life or a clinic that underwrites
  320. 20:42200 ultrasound scans and help us through this week, our goal is to underwrite 4,500 ultrasounds.
  321. 20:53And that's just very, very important.
  322. 20:55It matters in her decision making.
  323. 20:58If that's something you want to do, call 877-616-2396.
  324. 21:03That's 877-616-2396 or visit aFR.net.
  325. 21:09We just experienced something that many people have been praying for, working for, looking
  326. 21:15forward to seeing happen, but some never thought it would happen.
  327. 21:18And that is to see Roe versus Wade overturned via the Dobs decision.
  328. 21:22And then following that, there's been a flurry of state ballot initiatives to expand the right
  329. 21:28for what I call the premeditated intentional elimination of an unborn human being all around
  330. 21:35the country.
  331. 21:36And while that's happening shortly before row is overturned, there was kind of a change
  332. 21:42in our nation away from the surgical abortions being the primary means for the unborn to be,
  333. 21:51you know, slaughtered frankly, to chemical abortions, which in my view amplifies a need
  334. 21:58for ministries like pre-born because for so long, many people in our country and many still think
  335. 22:04that you know, that's not a baby, it's just a clump of cells.
  336. 22:08But when moms actually, as you rightly pointed out,
  337. 22:11get to physically see their babies on an ultrasound,
  338. 22:14it has a heart-sauffening impact, and as you just reported here,
  339. 22:1861,000 babies last year alone were saved.
  340. 22:22How many more can be saved now?
  341. 22:24Do you see this post-Dobbs environment
  342. 22:29as a ripe environment where we need even more information,
  343. 22:33education, but more specifically, the ultrasound resources for moms who may be maybe deceived
  344. 22:39by some lies or just in the difficult situation that don't understand the gravity, that that's
  345. 22:44an image bearer that they're carrying.
  346. 22:47Absolutely, absolutely.
  347. 22:49Did you know that after the fall of Rome, which were now like two and a half years past
  348. 22:55it, right?
  349. 22:56In 2023, abortion actually increased to more than a million.
  350. 23:00In fact, it was a million and 36,000.
  351. 23:03At the close of 2024, it comes close to 1.2 million.
  352. 23:09So the battle has just changed,
  353. 23:12but we need all the help that we can give.
  354. 23:14It is a prime opportunity for you
  355. 23:16to actually join in the fight
  356. 23:18and help save babies and moms.
  357. 23:23And it's just very important.
  358. 23:24So again, like $28 helps provide one ultrasound,
  359. 23:28$140 helps provide five ultrasound scans and a $5,000 gift would underwrite an entire day
  360. 23:38of life would help rescue babies from abortion.
  361. 23:42And if that's something that's stirring in your heart, 877-616-2396 or AFR.net because
  362. 23:50ultrasound genuinely is still the most powerful tool we have.
  363. 23:54It is an amazing tool and many people are listening to me right now and you've been thinking, you've
  364. 23:59been praying, what can I do?
  365. 24:01You may not be able to be one of these people on the front lines in certain ways, going to
  366. 24:05the places, counseling women, but this is something that we all can do at the levels that we can
  367. 24:10do it.
  368. 24:11To use resources that God has blessed us with in a manner that glorifies him and helps to aid
  369. 24:18you want to talk about love for your neighbor.
  370. 24:20What greater love is there to be able to use our resources to help save the lives of these
  371. 24:24innocent unborn babies and really even these moms, many of them who don't understand the
  372. 24:29scenarios in fullness that they're faced with.
  373. 24:32And as you pointed out, Roxy, seeing the baby on the ultrasound is often the gang change.
  374. 24:37Would you just speak a little bit?
  375. 24:39You refer to some of the statistics, but just speak a little bit to the significance of moms
  376. 24:43actually being able to see their babies be ultrasound.
  377. 24:47I used to do these ultrasound scans.
  378. 24:50The job that the Lord called me out of was nursing.
  379. 24:54So when I entered a field, I'm actually a nurse.
  380. 24:57I was providing this ultrasound.
  381. 24:59I remember seeing a client that was just determined.
  382. 25:02She was not talking to me.
  383. 25:04She didn't want spiritual conversations, none of that.
  384. 25:07I want an abortion and there's no talking.
  385. 25:10But God's providence, I am clinical.
  386. 25:12So I said, why don't we talk about your health, what this does to you?
  387. 25:16Let's talk about the risk and just discuss the entire process with her.
  388. 25:20So that was my like entry point, right?
  389. 25:23And then it said, we provide free ultrasounds.
  390. 25:25Would you at least let me do that so we could know that your pregnancy is actually in uterus
  391. 25:30and all these things.
  392. 25:31And so we provided her with the skin and she was laying in bed.
  393. 25:36And the ultrasound bed, the screen in front of her, she was laying like this, right?
  394. 25:41And so I moved to provide the skin.
  395. 25:44She was farther along than she was.
  396. 25:46And when the baby flashed on the screen, the baby was laying like this.
  397. 25:50Wow.
  398. 25:51back same way and the heart and heart I saw tears roll down the side of her face and she said
  399. 25:59It's my child acts like me. I turned on the heartbeat
  400. 26:04She just started crying and that day
  401. 26:07She chose life and the hardness of her heart got toiled that I got to talk to her afterwards
  402. 26:13Minister to her share the gospel and she actually chose life for herself and her baby that day
  403. 26:19Wow, that's amazing. For those of you in the radio audience or the podcast audience that you weren't able to see
  404. 26:27Roxy's gestures. She indicated that the patient she was serving was reclined with
  405. 26:32her left arm up above her head and behind with her hand behind her head and when
  406. 26:38Roxy turned on the ultrasound machine, the baby was in the exact same physical posture.
  407. 26:44You cannot make this stuff up. That is amazing and it was that
  408. 26:49And as you described it, she was pretty determined, wasn't conversing with you, but when she saw
  409. 26:55the baby's physical posture.
  410. 26:58Even before the heartbeat came on, when she saw the physical posture,
  411. 27:02she, the Lord used that to break in on her and cause that hard heart to be softened.
  412. 27:06And oh man, praise God, I'm so grateful that you were there for her and for that particular baby.
  413. 27:12And this is what we're endeavoring to offer to many, many, many more.
  414. 27:16I mean, I'm overwhelmed in thinking that 61,000 women just last year gave birth to their babies
  415. 27:23following ultrasounds that they received through preborn. Would you call 877-616-2396 now so that
  416. 27:31you can offer your contribution? $28 provides one free ultrasound, $140 provides five ultrasounds,
  417. 27:3887616-239-6 or you can go to aFR.net to give securely online to support the work of preborn
  418. 27:48Roxy. You mentioned that you came from a nursing before you took the executive director's position.
  419. 27:53I can only imagine the types of things you saw as a nurse and as you transition over to
  420. 27:59preborn that just solidified for you your conviction to serve the Lord in its manner through pro-life
  421. 28:04ministry.
  422. 28:06That's right. I mean, here's the thing. I'm not a medical professional. I'm a missionary that happens
  423. 28:12to have a medical license. Everything we have is to be offered to the Lord. That included.
  424. 28:19And I think it's a beautiful thing because it mirrors, it merges my professional career and my
  425. 28:27personal calling. And I'll just share a story of my first client ever that was told that she was
  426. 28:34unfit to become a mom. But as I should have an abortion, then
  427. 28:39genuinely that changed my heart because we're still friends to
  428. 28:42this day and the baby's so, you know, grown when I performed
  429. 28:46the ultrasound and she chose life. And more than that, she came
  430. 28:50in there suicidal hopeless depressed in addiction. And I was
  431. 28:54it we were able to share the truth about the gospel of Jesus
  432. 28:58Christ. And she said, whatever you have, I want that peace. And we
  433. 29:03prayed together and she confessed the Lord as her Savior.
  434. 29:06And you can just see every burden lifted.
  435. 29:09We connected her to the church.
  436. 29:11She got a disciple.
  437. 29:12Months later, she called me, I need your help.
  438. 29:15I'm like, what do you need?
  439. 29:16He said, send me a new Bible.
  440. 29:18Mine fell apart.
  441. 29:19Wow.
  442. 29:22That's enough.
  443. 29:23I don't.
  444. 29:23It doesn't even matter.
  445. 29:25But this is why we're inviting everyone to take part of the journey, right?
  446. 29:30call 877-616-2396 or visit aFR.net.
  447. 29:37These moments are what we're asking for.
  448. 29:41This is the invitation.
  449. 29:42It's not just to grow a ministry, none of that.
  450. 29:46It's really to push for the transformational life change,
  451. 29:49that only the gospel of Jesus can bring.
  452. 29:52Amen.
  453. 29:53And I would add as you're calling
  454. 29:54and you're making your contributions,
  455. 29:57I would ask for you to pray for that mom and the baby
  456. 30:00that dilute with usual resources to serve.
  457. 30:04And I pray that the numbers in 2025
  458. 30:08exponentially increased beyond the 61,000
  459. 30:11from this previous year.
  460. 30:13And as the gospel was proclaimed,
  461. 30:14the thousands who professed faith in Christ Jesus
  462. 30:18as a result of pre-born ministry
  463. 30:19would also be expanded because man,
  464. 30:22that's almost enduring need is for repentance.
  465. 30:26And at this critical moment,
  466. 30:28when all kinds of thoughts and circumstances are swirling,
  467. 30:32it's a crisis moment so often for these moms
  468. 30:36that pre-borners right there
  469. 30:37to really be the hands and feet of Jesus
  470. 30:39to come alongside these moms and show them that,
  471. 30:42listen, inside of your tummy is an image bearer of God.
  472. 30:46And it is your privilege and opportunity
  473. 30:48to give this baby life,
  474. 30:51because God has already given them life
  475. 30:52and you get to agree with what God has started.
  476. 30:55We only have a few minutes left, Roxie,
  477. 30:57I toss it to you to just close us out in this portion of the program.
  478. 31:01Yeah, I just want to encourage everybody again.
  479. 31:03It's an invitation to help transform lives.
  480. 31:07As these ultrasounds are like a window to heaven, again, an opportunity so that these moms
  481. 31:12can meet their babies for the first time here at that heartbeat.
  482. 31:16And there's so many opportunities.
  483. 31:19We don't only ask that you contribute, like you own this mission.
  484. 31:23This is our job as a body of believers.
  485. 31:26God has called us to this, it's written in his word.
  486. 31:29God is about life.
  487. 31:31From the very beginning,
  488. 31:33he's already talked to us about life, right?
  489. 31:36Jesus said, I have come that we may have life
  490. 31:38and life more abundantly.
  491. 31:40This is his idea.
  492. 31:42So again, we invite you in whatever level capacity,
  493. 31:46please join the battle, be activated as a believer.
  494. 31:50Help provide the swim and free ultrasounds, $28,
  495. 31:54one time or monthly or $140 one time or monthly.
  496. 31:59And again, if the Lord stirs you hard, $5,000
  497. 32:03and helps sponsor a day of life rescue babies
  498. 32:08for an entire day, 200 of them,
  499. 32:10call 87616-2396-87616-2396 or visit AFR.net.
  500. 32:20Thank you so much, Roxy.
  501. 32:21May God bless the worker pre-born.
  502. 32:24And I am so grateful for what you all are doing.
  503. 32:26And I echo what she just said,
  504. 32:29as the Lord is stirring you to participate in this mission,
  505. 32:33I wholeheartedly invite you to join 877-616-2396,

  508. 32:44the demonic lie purported as law that was Roe v. Wade,
  509. 32:48but we can be Jesus's hands and feet,
  510. 32:51rescue moms and their babies by God's grace.

  529. 34:00The Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Common
  530. 34:07Terrets are available at AFR.net.
  531. 34:10Back to the Hamilton Quarter on American Family Radio.
  532. 34:14Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner.
  533. 34:16Well, it didn't take long for Israel's Prime Minister
  534. 34:20to be being that Yahoo to let his,
  535. 34:22let it be known what he thought about the deal.
  536. 34:25You all, if you tuned in yesterday,
  537. 34:28you heard me explain the details are,
  538. 34:30as I understood them with the proposed three stage,
  539. 34:37hostage released by the terrorist organization, Hamas,
  540. 34:41as well as to propose ceasefire.
  541. 34:44Well, be being that Yahoo said, no go, no go.
  542. 34:49that he, Israel, the Knesset will not support any measure
  543. 34:54that allows Hamas to remain intact.
  544. 34:56And if you were listening yesterday,
  545. 34:57this is one of the things I said, it was like,
  546. 34:58wait a minute, what's going on here?
  547. 35:01One of the things that Prime Minister Netanyahu let out
  548. 35:04is that it seems that after Israel
  549. 35:08and their negotiators left the table,
  550. 35:10Hamas tried to change the terms of the deal.
  551. 35:14That they're announcing to the world
  552. 35:16that Israel had agreed to a framework
  553. 35:18where it's military would withdraw from Gaza,
  554. 35:23to which Prime Minister Netanyahu said, no way.
  555. 35:27I mean, he knows what to speak in Spanish,
  556. 35:30but he said, no way, Jose.
  557. 35:33And he immediately came out with his opposition,
  558. 35:40Israel's Security Council
  559. 35:43that was purportedly supposed to meet this morning,
  560. 35:46to consider the deal and vote on it, did not do so.
  561. 35:49Knesset did not vote on it.
  562. 35:53And Prime Minister Netanyahu was clear with stating,
  563. 35:57and no uncertain terms,
  564. 35:58that they will not agree to a deal
  565. 36:00that allows Hamas to remain intact.
  566. 36:02Because weren't they responding to Hamas's attack
  567. 36:07in the beginning?
  568. 36:07It would be no fighting if Hamas
  569. 36:10then invade in slaughter, innocent Israelis,
  570. 36:14and kidnap and torture others.
  571. 36:17Listen to, let me explain this as well.
  572. 36:19The comments I'm about to share from Prime Minister Netanyahu are in Hebrew, but we have
  573. 36:24a English translation of his remarks. Listen to and watch clip number one.
  574. 36:30Go.
  575. 36:31Throughout the negotiations, Israel demonstrated a willingness to go a long way, a long way
  576. 36:37that was described by US Secretary of State Blinken and others as extraordinarily generous.
  577. 36:42But while Israel showed this willingness, Hamas remained entrenched in its extreme positions.
  578. 36:47Leave among them the demand to withdraw all our forces from the Strip, end the war and
  579. 36:51leave Hamas intact.
  580. 36:53The State of Israel cannot accept this.
  581. 36:55We are not ready to accept a situation in which the Hamas battalions come out of their
  582. 36:59bunkers, take control of Gaza again, rebuild their military infrastructure and return to
  583. 37:05threatening the citizens of Israel in the surrounding settlements, in the cities of the South, in
  584. 37:10all parts of the country.
  585. 37:15So that was very interesting.
  586. 37:20And not only that, and I'm looking for the report
  587. 37:23that I have on this one, is it here or is it this one,
  588. 37:27there also was a vote for Israel to no longer allow Al Jazeera
  589. 37:33to gallivant around in Israel any longer.
  590. 37:40So that is the latest on that front.
  591. 37:45I mean, we'll pay attention because version of Trump,
  592. 37:46He said it outright.
  593. 37:48You know, the hostages have to be returned before or by my inauguration day.
  594. 37:54Otherwise, you know the rest.
  595. 37:58That's what he said.
  596. 38:00That's what he said.
  597. 38:01That's what I'm sorry.
  598. 38:02That's what he said.
  599. 38:03So today was a very busy busy day on Capitol Hill because we had day two of the Pam Bondi
  600. 38:10hearings for her confirmation to be the United States, the next United States Attorney General,
  601. 38:15that continued today.
  602. 38:18And I had the clip between her and Adam Schiff from yesterday.
  603. 38:23We ran out of time.
  604. 38:24So I'm going to play that one today because we ran out of time before we can play the entire
  605. 38:28clip to where Pandy says, listen, man, you were censured by Congress by saying some of the
  606. 38:33lies you're saying right here today, but you have, you have that phenomenon, but you also
  607. 38:38have to counter measure that counterbalance that with, wait a minute, the same Adam Schiff
  608. 38:43that was censored by the House of Representatives was elected by Californians to give him a message
  609. 38:48a promotion. He was promoted from being a representative in the House of Representatives
  610. 38:55to being a state, I'm sorry, being a United States Senator with a statewide election. Somebody
  611. 39:02squared that circle for me. Can't make this stuff up. Can't I make this stuff up? So in
  612. 39:08addition to him, you have Doug Bergum, President Trump's nominee to be Secretary of the Interior
  613. 39:15to where many Americans are like, what do they do? They manage the America's natural resources.
  614. 39:20President Trump has tapped Doug Bergum, who was a businessman former governor of North Dakota.
  615. 39:24He ran for president, if you recall, in the Republican primary.
  616. 39:27This past cycle was not very successful.
  617. 39:30We'd had one little moment, it's called an Bergamentum.
  618. 39:34Bergamentum.
  619. 39:39So he's expected to utilize his expertise to help, you know, no pun intended, but to add
  620. 39:45rocket fuel to America's efforts to become, once again, a net exporter of energy, which
  621. 39:50which happened for the first time in nearly a half century
  622. 39:55in during President Trump's first term.
  623. 39:59So you have that, then you have the CIA nominee,
  624. 40:05John Ratcliffe's hearings began today.
  625. 40:09And you had Scott Besant.
  626. 40:11This is the man who was a former staffer
  627. 40:20for George Soros's hedge fund.
  628. 40:23who represents himself as a homosexual man married to a man.
  629. 40:30But President Trump nominated him to be treasury secretary.
  630. 40:36Yeah, yeah.
  631. 40:39What's that?
  632. 40:41Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
  633. 40:43Yeah, yeah, that's right.
  634. 40:45Yes, thank you.
  635. 40:47So you have all of these things that were happening.
  636. 40:50Because we ran out of time,
  637. 40:51I wanna go back to, and this is from yesterday's hearing
  638. 40:54with Pam Bondi to where she had her clash with Adam Schiff.
  639. 41:02Clip number three, go.
  640. 41:04It will also be important that you give good advice to the president.
  641. 41:08Are you prepared to advise the president not to pardon people who beat police officers?
  642. 41:14Senator as I said, the pardons are at the direction of the president.
  643. 41:19We will look and we will advise.
  644. 41:20I will look at every case on a case.
  645. 41:22So you want to finish on a case by case?
  646. 41:24Okay, good.
  647. 41:25And I have more violence to police officers.
  648. 41:27Follow up with that.
  649. 41:29So will it be your advice to the president, Mr. President?
  650. 41:31I know you said you want to issue hundreds of pardons on day one.
  651. 41:36Will it be your advice to the president?
  652. 41:37No, Mr. President, I need to go over them on a case-by-case basis.
  653. 41:41Do not issue blanket pardons.
  654. 41:44Will that be your advice to the president?
  655. 41:45Senator, I have not looked at any of those files.
  656. 41:49If confirmed, I will look at the files for the president.
  657. 41:51And will you be able to do?
  658. 41:52you will be able to review hundreds of cases on day one?
  659. 41:56I will look at every file.
  660. 41:58I am asking to look at.
  661. 41:58Of course you won't.
  662. 41:59So will you advise the president?
  663. 42:00Can I answer the question?
  664. 42:02Well, my question is.
  665. 42:02I would have plenty of staff.
  666. 42:03You said, of course you want.
  667. 42:05You'll be able to review hundreds of cases on the first day.
  668. 42:07I'm not going to mislead this body nor you.
  669. 42:11All right, let me ask another question.
  670. 42:13You don't want to answer that.
  671. 42:14Let me answer the question.
  672. 42:14You were censured by Congress.
  673. 42:16It was all.
  674. 42:19He cut off.
  675. 42:20You were censored by Congress,
  676. 42:22Senator, for comments just like this.
  677. 42:27And it's just so remarkable
  678. 42:30that they continue to try to question her
  679. 42:33about the 2020 election.
  680. 42:36And the cognitive dissonance is hilarious
  681. 42:42because nearly every American voter knows
  682. 42:46what President Trump has said about the 2024,
  683. 42:48I'm sorry, the 2020 election.
  684. 42:50And guess what?
  685. 42:51They reelected him anyway, anyway.
  686. 43:00Do you think the American people are concerned
  687. 43:04with President Trump's statements about the 2020 election?
  688. 43:07In fact, many of them agree with him.
  689. 43:13And it's just crazy.
  690. 43:15And I alluded to this.
  691. 43:16And I don't think I got to play it.
  692. 43:19The cuts to the chase on Cash Patel yesterday.
  693. 43:22They were asking her more questions about Cash Patel
  694. 43:25in the 2020 election because they know they couldn't challenge her
  695. 43:27credibility and her qualifications and I'm just going to tell you plainly she will be confirmed
  696. 43:33with flying colors. But I want to give you a taste of the efforts to try to use Pam Bondi's
  697. 43:41nomination to already begin. Objections on the record to Cash Patel which causes me to ponder out
  698. 43:52loud. Why are they so afraid of cash? You know, and I ain't talking about Birdman, you know, from
  699. 44:02cash money records or Trio. We finished this, we done. I ain't talking about that.
  700. 44:10I thought my cash would tell. Cash would tell if I show up in his hearing, rubbing his hands together
  701. 44:16like this, talking about, which yeah, listen to and watch clip number two. Why are they so
  702. 44:24So, pressed about Casmetel.
  703. 44:26Clip number two, go.
  704. 44:28Chairman, welcome Ms. Bondi.
  705. 44:30Thank you Senator, and thank you for meeting with me.
  706. 44:32I greatly appreciate that.
  707. 44:33It was a pleasure.
  708. 44:35Ms. Bondi, you were a courtroom prosecutor
  709. 44:37for a great many years.
  710. 44:38As a courtroom prosecutor, did you ever have an enemies list?
  711. 44:44No Senator.
  712. 44:45And you went on to be Florida's Attorney General.
  713. 44:47As Florida's Attorney General, did you ever have an enemies list?
  714. 44:51No Senator.
  715. 44:52as Florida's Attorney General,
  716. 44:54you were responsible for hiring
  717. 44:55into the Florida Department of Attorney General, correct?
  718. 44:59Senator, the Attorney General's Office of Florida
  719. 45:01is the third largest in the state, approximately 1400 employees
  720. 45:05and approximately 400 lawyers, only California
  721. 45:10and Texas are bigger offices.
  722. 45:13And you were responsible for hiring
  723. 45:15into that office while you were Attorney General?
  724. 45:18Yes, yes.
  725. 45:19Would you have hired someone
  726. 45:20to the Florida Attorney General's office who you knew had an enemy's list.
  727. 45:27Senator to cut to the chase you're clearly talking about Cash Patel.
  728. 45:30I don't believe he has an enemy's list.
  729. 45:32He made a quote on TV which I have not heard.
  730. 45:35I saw your sign or Senator Dervan's sign about Cash.
  731. 45:40But I know that Cash Patel has had 60 jury trials as a public defender, as a prosecutor.
  732. 45:50He has great experience in the Intel department, Department of Defense.
  733. 45:56I have known cash and I believe that cash is the right person at this time for this job.
  734. 46:03You'll have the ability to question Mr. Patel.
  735. 46:06And I'm questioning you right now about whether you will enforce an enemy's list that he announced
  736. 46:11publicly on television.
  737. 46:12Oh, Senator, I'm sorry.
  738. 46:13There will never be an enemy's list within the Department of Justice.
  739. 46:17Thank you.
  740. 46:18Oh, they all are afraid.
  741. 46:23I can't recall, it might have happened before,
  742. 46:26but I can't recall any confirmation hearing
  743. 46:30where the questions were offered to one nominee
  744. 46:32that are directed to raise the concern
  745. 46:35about another nominee.
  746. 46:37I can't recall that happening.
  747. 46:40And Pam Boddy says, let me cut to the chase,
  748. 46:42y'all talking about cash ruling everything around you.
  749. 46:45That's what y'all are talking about.
  750. 46:48I think cash will be wonderful.
  751. 46:51And I'm positive.
  752. 46:54I mean, this doesn't take a whole lot of intuition,
  753. 46:56but they're trying to set the stage
  754. 46:57because they are planning to oppose
  755. 47:00cash Patel vigorously, but here's the thing.
  756. 47:02Here's the thing.
  757. 47:05There's nothing they can do about it.
  758. 47:08This is when you hear the elections have consequences.
  759. 47:12This is why it's so important
  760. 47:13that there are 53 Republican senators
  761. 47:17in the United States House,
  762. 47:18I'm sorry, United States Senate,
  763. 47:21because there's nothing they can do about it.
  764. 47:23They can cry, they can moan, they can complain.
  765. 47:27And I don't think Casper Tell's confirmation here
  766. 47:29and he hasn't been scheduled yet.
  767. 47:30Are you aware of it scheduling?
  768. 47:32That's interesting to me.
  769. 47:34I'll say I'll get my popcorn ready for that one.
  770. 47:38It's gonna be fireworks because Casper Tell is competent
  771. 47:42and he's courageous.
  772. 47:45You know, it's one thing to be competent.
  773. 47:47I'm sorry, one thing to be confident,
  774. 47:49but you don't have the know-how to get it done.
  775. 47:51But he's confident, courageous, and he knows how to get it done.
  776. 47:57And they are afraid.
  777. 47:59I mean, of course I couldn't play the entire litany
  778. 48:01of the questioning Adam Ship was going berserk.
  779. 48:04Do you have any evidence, Miss Bondi,
  780. 48:06as to why Liz Cheney should be prosecuted?
  781. 48:08Do you have evidence that would indicate
  782. 48:10she should be placed on investigations like,
  783. 48:12oh no, play I ain't even been off as yet.
  784. 48:15Just I ain't seen one follow yet,
  785. 48:16what you talking about?
  786. 48:17I am right now the nominee.
  787. 48:20But as you know right now, do you have any evidence?
  788. 48:22And it's like, how would I have evidence?
  789. 48:24I ain't even in the office.
  790. 48:25Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh.
  791. 48:29All these people are becoming quite squeamish.
  792. 48:32And the notion of cast-for-tellers as FBI director is causing them to be...
  793. 48:36Hmm.
  794. 48:37Let me just say this.
  795. 48:39A little worried.
  796. 48:40A little worried.
  797. 48:42So today's the last day of Pam Bondy's hearing.
  798. 48:43All of the other nominees as far as I know it will only have one day of hearings to date.
  799. 48:50I'm pretty sure a cast-for-teller might have more.
  800. 48:53but it is going to be interesting to see how this unfolds.
  801. 48:56So stay tuned, and I will do my best to present this information to you.
  802. 49:01But cash is not even on the hill yet, but cash is in their minds, living rent free in their minds of what might they be afraid.
  803. 49:13We're going to see, oh, they're asking about the border.
  804. 49:17Listen, Tom Holman's position is not cabinet level, so it's not subject to any confirmation.
  805. 49:23So there won't be any time home in hearings on the Hill, but I would love to have seen
  806. 49:27those, but they don't require Senate confirmation.
  807. 49:29So I guess we'll just have to wait for their advice and consent concerning one cast rule
  808. 49:34of everything around them.
  809. 49:36Patel.
