=== Rabbi's Trip Prayer (03:48) ===

[00:00:00]  You did something about the unplanned, the movie planned.
[00:00:05]  And you took that on.
[00:00:08]  And, you know, you talked about how tight money had been at one time.
[00:00:14]  And then God helped you.
[00:00:16]  But you were so, you just took out a check and I just sent him a million dollars at that moment.
[00:00:23]  I, you know, the story I was in, I was leaving for Israel.
[00:00:25]  I'll kind of reach out part of it.
[00:00:27]  I was, and this was about a year and a half ago.
[00:00:31]  And I was.
[00:00:32]  Was that when you went with Rabbi?
[00:00:35]  No, that was the trip.
[00:00:36]  Was it Kenner?
[00:00:37]  Yeah.
[00:00:38]  Oh, yeah, it was.
[00:00:39]  Yeah, that was that trip.
[00:00:40]  Yeah, that was.
[00:00:41]  I mean, I just.
[00:00:43]  No, that's when I got baptized in the Jordan River.
[00:00:45]  That's right.
[00:00:46]  There it is, right there.
[00:00:48]  Rabbi sent us a picture.
[00:00:50]  There I go.
[00:00:51]  That's you in the Jordan River.
[00:00:54]  That's right.
[00:00:55]  White people love the rabbi.
[00:00:57]  We love the rabbit.
[00:00:58]  He was so awesome.
[00:00:59]  I met him, and then he, of course, he had to sit right in front of me on my bus.
[00:01:03]  So he got a kick out and I fell asleep in my seat.
[00:01:06]  I think, you know, well, it was like in Israel, I could do it, look at all the stuff during the day, do my work because of the time change back here, call him back and forth.
[00:01:14]  So get to bed about one in the morning and start over again.
[00:01:16]  It was fun, but so it was so amazing over there.
[00:01:19]  That was amazing.
[00:01:20]  We went on a trip with Rabbi.
[00:01:21]  Yeah, absolutely.
[00:01:22]  Hilanders.
[00:01:23]  There's nothing like it.
[00:01:24]  There's a whole show just on that.
[00:01:26]  Absolutely.
[00:01:26]  But my trip, but my trip, you know, that whole trip to Israel, it started out divinely as we were waiting to leave.
[00:01:32]  You know, and I get a call from the airport, this guy, and he goes, I hadn't talked to him in three years, just an acquaintance.
[00:01:37]  And he goes, yeah, this is Michael.
[00:01:40]  Mike, this Michael, and he said, I got a couple producers here.
[00:01:44]  Now, I wasn't into movies.
[00:01:45]  He knew I was going to do a movie someday from my book, you know, and I'd been, and, but he said, I got two producers that we prayed about, and you're going to be in our movie as a cameo.
[00:01:54]  And I go, I haven't prayed about it.
[00:01:56]  What's this movie all about?
[00:01:57]  He tells me, you know, this true story of Abby Johnson.
[00:02:00]  How she was with a director for Planned Parenthood.
[00:02:03]  And then what she's seen, she just totally went the other way, got attacked for leaving, everything else.
[00:02:09]  And I said, well, let me pray about it.
[00:02:12]  I got off the phone, prayed with Kendra.
[00:02:14]  And not even three minutes, I called him back.
[00:02:16]  I said, okay, I'll be in it, but I want to make sure that it's not just a good movie with good content.
[00:02:21]  I want it to be a good movie, too, not just with a good message.
[00:02:24]  And I said, are you short any money?
[00:02:26]  They said, yeah, we're short a million dollars.
[00:02:27]  And I said, well, just a minute.
[00:02:29]  Our plane's taken off.
[00:02:30]  And I wired the money without no contract or anything.
[00:02:33]  That was on faith.
[00:02:34]  And we got back from Israel and we filmed in a secret place in Oklahoma.
[00:02:39]  And it's funny, I got down there, and then these guys tell me, you know what?
[00:02:42]  We really had prayed about the money too.
[00:02:44]  And they said, call Mike Lindell.
[00:02:45]  They needed it that day or the movie wouldn't be here.
[00:02:48]  So it was such timing.
[00:02:49]  But I'll tell you, I got to tell a funny part.
[00:02:51]  We get down there to do now.
[00:02:52]  I'm going to do this cameo.
[00:02:54]  And I drive a bulldozer in the thing.
[00:02:57]  And you're going to get one shot at this.
[00:02:59]  So I'm dressed up.
[00:03:00]  And there's 300 extras.
[00:03:02]  And I had never been anything like this.
[00:03:05]  And all of a sudden, I look over and there's a guy dressed like me.
[00:03:09]  And he's going to be, he's a stunt double.
[00:03:11]  And I said, oh, no, I'm doing, I'm driving this bulldozer.
[00:03:14]  This guy don't even have a mustache.
[00:03:18]  And I'm sitting there and I go, and now the producers are all worried because the sun's going to go down.
[00:03:22]  You're only going to get one shot at this.
[00:03:24]  And they're going, they're talking about safety and stuff.
[00:03:26]  I go, you didn't tell me this before.
[00:03:28]  I'm riding this.
[00:03:29]  I'm not going to go on national TV and say I had to have a stunt double to drive a bulldozer.
[00:03:32]  So anyway, I get in there.

=== Miracle Movie Timing (02:05) ===

[00:03:34]  They finally agree and I get in there and I put it in reverse and it's, whoa, it's getting low.
[00:03:40]  I forgot to take the emergency breath.
[00:03:43]  So I'm going, boom, boom, boom, boom.
[00:03:44]  And I go, boom, boom, boom, boom.
[00:03:45]  And I stick my hand out.
[00:03:46]  Do we want it though?
[00:03:47]  Let's just do it the way we practice.
[00:03:49]  I go, please God, please God.
[00:03:51]  You know, I get out.
[00:03:52]  When you see me cheering, it's because I pulled it off.
[00:03:58]  But it was a miracle movie for me to be able to use my platform now with God's timing when that came out because we were attacked for the rating of the movie.
[00:04:08]  We were, I don't know, I, it's funny, I didn't get attacked as much as I think somebody else would have because I've already been attacked for going all in for the president and everything else.
[00:04:17]  And so I've kind of been through it.
[00:04:18]  They go, oh, you know, we attacked Mike Lindell and he keeps doing the same old stuff.
[00:04:22]  We went all in and bold everyone in the movie from the from the Abby to Ashley, most amazing actress I've ever seen.
[00:04:30]  Oh, I think ever.
[00:04:31]  And we went in, even with all the attacks, they took us down on Twitter for two hours the day of the movie launch.
[00:04:37]  It was banned in Canada.
[00:04:38]  It was banned in Canada.
[00:04:40]  Then it finally got through.
[00:04:42]  It was just, it was, in every country, it was a battle because of the message and because of the message.
[00:04:48]  That's right.
[00:04:49]  Can you imagine they let loose the most filthy, horrible motion pictures in the world?
[00:04:57]  Right.
[00:04:58]  And they banned something to save little babies.
[00:05:01]  Yeah.
[00:05:01]  Yeah.
[00:05:02]  This is how sick we become, people.
[00:05:04]  But you think, look at this, you know, Pastor, with the timing.
[00:05:08]  When this movie came out, it was all over the news about New York lighting up buildings for killing babies and Virginia for killing babies.
[00:05:16]  And here they're, you know, then they got stuff on the other coast where, hey, let's save the minnows, but kill the babies.
[00:05:21]  That's right.
[00:05:21]  Come on.
[00:05:22]  This is where, but the timing of the movie was absolutely God's timing.
[00:05:26]  Absolutely.
[00:05:27]  You couldn't, you know, everybody and the movie, when they, even though they tried to stop it, it just went everywhere.
[00:05:33]  I mean, they expected the success of that movie to be one-fifth what it was.
[00:05:38]  Nobody could explain it.
[00:05:39]  We could.
