You are exemplary in these principles that you're teaching and the way in which you're
00:00:06.100
And I want to just encourage everybody who's watching right now, if you are feeling that
00:00:13.000
Holy Spirit fire within you and it's almost as though God is speaking to you saying, get

I want to start Action for Canada here in the United States.

I don't know if that's allowed, but I want to stay friends with you.

I want to continue to learn from you and what you're doing.

00:01:23.480
And we're so grateful that he was able to join Tanya for a pre-recorded conversation.
00:01:29.340
Kirk is a man of faith, a husband, father, actor, producer, speaker, and an icon in the television
00:01:38.860
Kirk's mission is to nurture children's innocence and to counter the evil agenda that is polluting
00:01:46.580
He is the author of the book, As You Grow, which teaches biblical wisdom based on the fruit
00:01:52.540
of the spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,
00:02:00.760
Kirk will be giving us a glimpse into his documentary, The Homeschool Awakening, where he provides
00:02:06.440
a look into how homeschooling parents balance work and life, as well as offering solutions
00:02:12.280
to parents who think they aren't qualified to homeschool their children.
00:02:18.740
And won't you please join me as we listen to the conversation between Tanya Gah and Kirk Cameron.
00:02:24.780
Well, thank you, Heather, and welcome, everybody.
00:02:36.200
I'm so happy to have Kirk Cameron here tonight.
00:02:39.940
We're going to be talking about a lot of important issues.
00:02:43.040
We're going to be talking about the libraries and reading to children.
00:02:48.480
And as you know, back to school is right around the corner.
00:02:51.160
And we are campaigning for as many parents as possible to pull their kids out of school
00:02:56.560
and actually give them learning and safe spaces.
00:03:13.820
So, so encouraged and inspired by all that you're doing there in Canada.
00:03:26.360
Well, I, you know, a little pre-show, we were talking about Action for Canada's notices of
00:03:31.300
liability and our campaign to combat this within our school boards.
00:03:35.220
Before we get into talking a little more about that, I think it's really important for people
00:03:41.180
to know more about who Kirk Cameron is and how the Lord brought you to be where you are
00:03:47.520
today and being able to speak into the hearts and minds of millions of people, not only in
00:03:56.640
And I was hoping that we could start with your conversion story.
00:03:59.880
When I'm preparing for guests to come on and creating their bio pages, I do a lot of
00:04:06.120
research and I found your conversion story heartwarming, how you got into acting, because
00:04:12.080
I understand that you had big plans to be a doctor.
00:04:15.300
And then I also really appreciated the story of how you met your wife and the adoption of
00:04:22.240
your four children and then your two additional children.
00:04:26.800
And I think that what I felt that very much aligned with Action for Canada is you have
00:04:35.060
And because of that, God has just blessed you and given you a platform to speak into
00:04:40.240
the hearts and minds and the lives of so many people.
00:04:43.280
So I just want to hand the floor over to you and just let you go at it there for a minute.
00:04:53.800
And so I hope I can fill in some of the cracks in between the things that you've mentioned.
00:05:01.460
So as far as my conversion, there was a real transformation that took place.
00:05:08.220
I was proud of the fact that I had not succumbed to the mental delusion that there was some invisible
00:05:14.680
being hiding behind a cloud, keeping track of who has been naughty and who's been nice
00:05:19.280
sounded like a grown-up version of the Santa Claus story.
00:05:24.020
And rather than bringing coal for the bad boys and girls, you went to a place of eternal
00:05:31.060
But you had gifts if you were on the good list.
00:05:34.880
Well, I was on the middle of a television program here, growing pain since I was 14 years
00:05:45.580
And it wasn't until I was about 17 years old that I was interested in a young girl who invited
00:05:54.360
I didn't have any interest in church, but I was interested in the girl.
00:05:59.220
And because I was an actor, I could pretend for the morning and play along in church.
00:06:04.200
And I heard the message of the gospel from a very wonderful speaker, a committed and intelligent
00:06:17.180
As I found answers to those questions and read some books, including beginning to read
00:06:22.980
the Bible, I became persuaded that I could be wrong.
00:06:28.080
And I remember praying as I sat in my sports car as a 17-year-old on the top of my career
00:06:37.360
without a care in the world, other than the fact that I knew that one day I would die.
00:06:42.660
And if I found out that what that preacher said was true, and there was a heaven and there's
00:06:54.120
I couldn't have explained the resurrection or the virgin birth or how Noah got all those
00:06:59.920
But I asked God to please show me who he is, forgive me for what I've done that's been wrong
00:07:09.320
and to change me into the person he wants me to be.
00:07:15.720
I felt obligated to not be a hypocrite and filled with gratitude as I learned more and more
00:07:25.820
And I began to follow Christ as the Lord of my life when I was about 17 years old.
00:07:33.840
So here I am, grateful, realizing that I didn't find God in Hollywood because he wasn't lost.
00:07:48.320
And, you know, oftentimes we've said, especially in this day and age right now with what we've
00:07:52.980
all been through in the last three and a half years, people need hope.
00:07:58.960
It's through difficult times that we finally get on our knees.
00:08:02.180
And I would say that God uses what the enemy meant for harm for his good and his glory.
00:08:07.020
And Action for Canada, we consider ourselves with all of our chapters across the nation
00:08:15.440
And we've become a place, you know, a refuge for many, many people with those kinds of questions.
00:08:22.100
And there is nothing that you did at 17 years old to bring about that conversion.
00:08:29.080
You were having a nudge from the Holy Spirit that something, you know, was further out there.
00:08:34.460
And you began to question that and come to that decision.
00:08:39.160
And, you know, my hope and prayer is that many people who are going through the stressful
00:08:43.660
times that they are right now and wondering what in the world is going on are beginning
00:08:48.280
to look up and rather than count on their self or live in fear.
00:08:52.440
And so that's why I wanted you to, you know, talk a little bit about this, because I think
00:08:57.820
that we need to be pointing people in a direction to understand they're not alone.
00:09:09.440
And that I want to move towards that uncompromising spirit that you've had as well in the decisions
00:09:16.820
And I think it's only during those times that we are permitted that God can use us to the
00:09:22.360
capacity that he's using you and why he's giving you a platform to reach the hearts and
00:09:27.340
minds of so many people with your movies, with your books, and with your testimony.
00:09:34.640
Well, I feel so honored to be speaking with you, not because you have a celebrity name or
00:09:44.480
some great big platform or millions of followers on social media.
00:09:48.940
But what I am so excited about is what you're doing and your faithfulness to the Lord and
00:09:56.700
the wholeheartedness, the lack of a divided heart and the single-mindedness of being faithful
00:10:03.520
to God and putting feet to your faith in the form of action for Canada.
00:10:10.920
That's what we need our pastors to begin doing.
00:10:13.080
That's what we need mothers and fathers to be doing.
00:10:16.760
And, you know, it's so easy to get frustrated with apathetic, lazy people.
00:10:22.160
But I'm also learning to have compassion for apathetic and lazy people because at times I am
00:10:28.100
And I also recognize that we have been fed a steady diet of apathy and laziness and inaction
00:10:39.120
And many of our leaders were trained in seminaries that have been infiltrated by bad ideas and
00:10:47.720
And so I appreciate those who sound the alarm and I appreciate the comforters and the exhorters
00:10:53.820
and those who are rushing out to the front lines.
00:11:01.060
I think here in America, I've done a deep dive into the history of our country to discover
00:11:13.820
that what our children are being taught is completely false.
00:11:17.980
It is propaganda with regard to the beginnings of our nation and getting back to the root of
00:11:25.280
who we are, not just here in America, but any free people.
00:11:29.700
We have to understand that freedom defined the way that we define it.
00:11:34.560
Being free from government interference or any other tyrannical pressure to conform to
00:11:41.560
a set of values that are contrary to the freedom that God has given us to govern ourselves under
00:11:47.620
That freedom has a root that goes so deep back into history, all the way back to the Garden
00:11:58.300
And here in America, we were established by biblicists, people who understood and were overwhelmed with
00:12:09.780
gratitude for a Bible that they could hold in their hands in the 1500s, that they could study
00:12:15.220
as a family and recognize that kings and prime ministers and presidents do not have this divine
00:12:23.100
right of kings so-called that allows them to become tyrants in the name of God.
00:12:27.680
They're to be ministers of God for the service and the good of the people.
00:12:31.940
Our country was built on self-governing people, on the foundation of the gospel, people who love
00:12:38.960
and fear God and want to serve their neighbors and then put their government in place as their
00:12:44.280
representatives and they are there to do the will of the people, not to control them and
00:12:50.420
plunder their property, but to protect their property.
00:12:54.560
And we've so gotten away from that and become illiterate and become ignorant of who we are
00:13:00.360
and where we came from that we've forgotten the covenants that our ancestors have made in
00:13:07.160
the presence of God with one another to uphold these principles.
00:13:10.040
And that's what I'm fighting for and trying to get back to in my own way through the American
00:13:16.420
campfire revival, through some of these other things that you've mentioned.
00:13:20.600
And boy, this is the testing of fire that we are experiencing right now.
00:13:27.140
And this is the crucible in which, you know, the boys will be separated from the men and the
00:13:33.520
women from the girls and, um, we need to be more than patriots.
00:13:39.740
We need to be Christians who don't divorce our faith in God from our responsibilities to
00:13:56.800
So, uh, I'll stop talking now because I'm sure you have other questions.
00:14:03.460
I mean, this is the first time you and I have spoken.
00:14:05.640
We didn't get a chance, uh, you know, previously to have a conversation.
00:14:09.780
And I know when we were pre-show having a bit of conversation, you were, uh, you know,
00:14:14.020
quite excited to, uh, obviously you read in a little bit to what we're doing here with
00:14:18.600
our notices of liability and asserting our rights as, as God has, um, uh, uh, permitted
00:14:26.160
And I just finished a two and a half week speaking tour.
00:14:31.660
And the major part of that speaking tour was talking about the fact that Canada is a Judeo-Christian
00:14:37.540
nation, which was inherited through our British Commonwealth.
00:14:40.100
And it's embedded in our Magna Carta forms, our laws and our values, and is a system of
00:14:45.980
governance that sets us apart from totalitarian extremists and communist regimes, giving us
00:14:51.620
the freedom to believe or not to believe without fear of persecution, oppression, or even death.
00:15:02.180
And, you know, it was many years ago when I, you know, I've been at this for eight years,
00:15:08.060
the, the battle, and it was many years ago when I was hearing all about love and diversity,
00:15:15.780
They were perverting our biblical values and what this country was founded on.
00:15:19.700
And I was appealing, you know, to God to say, how do we fight this evil?
00:15:26.240
And I said, then I need you to help me to be able to communicate in such a way that the
00:15:32.160
enemy cannot debate what comes out of my mouth and that it will fall sweetly on the ears of
00:15:40.680
And, and so, you know, the knee-jerk reaction I say to people is to reject what we have to
00:15:46.400
say about our countries being based on biblical principles, because for decades we've been
00:15:51.860
being groomed and, uh, you know, uh, manipulated into believing we were secular nations into
00:16:02.040
And if we take a look at the, uh, other nations around the world and how they're functioning,
00:16:07.380
they have a core belief system and they're living by that belief system, which is anti-God,
00:16:13.420
capital G-O-D, and they're all living under tyranny and oppression.
00:16:17.640
And so my challenge is to people, rather than your knee-jerk reaction,
00:16:21.860
if you succumb to COVID, if you succumb to the mask, if you succumb to thinking that
00:16:26.920
love is love, even when that involves man-boy love, then you need to wake up.
00:16:31.720
You need to take a step back and think maybe that you've been deceived at a deeper level.
00:16:36.780
And now it is time, you know, for a great reset, but not the one that the globalists are talking
00:16:42.900
But I think that's the battle on the front lines.
00:16:45.420
This is, uh, you know, an unprecedented battle for good and evil.
00:16:48.540
And if we don't rise up, even as non-Christians and Christians and understand what, uh, godly
00:16:54.120
biblical principles gives us as far as, uh, freedom and democracy, we're lost.
00:17:04.820
Everybody, um, uh, go back or hit rewind and go back and listen to everything that she just
00:17:09.820
said and memorize it and tell it to your children and tell it to your friends.
00:17:14.080
It, my sister had asked me if there's one question for Kirk, because she loves your movie,
00:17:20.080
I mean, you've made so many, uh, good ones, but she said, you know, because you showed in,
00:17:25.040
uh, in a, in a tremendous way, the history of America.
00:17:29.540
And even when what I've, what I've just repeated, this is the history of Canada that they're trying
00:17:34.420
to erase, but it would be wonderful to put it into, uh, you know, the format of a movie like
00:17:44.060
And, um, that, that would be, that would be phenomenal.
00:17:48.080
I think, I think one of your listeners who, uh, has the financial means to, to get, put
00:17:55.400
And I would be happy to help, uh, you on, you know, finding people on the production side
00:17:59.900
who could help put something like that together.
00:18:04.760
Uh, I'd love, if you don't mind, I want to just go back to something in case someone is,
00:18:09.200
uh, coming to this, uh, fresh, like, like I was what you have done, what action for Canada
00:18:15.460
has done with these notices of liability is phenomenal.
00:18:20.160
I have not, I have not heard of anybody else doing what I see you doing.
00:18:29.460
You have, you have given a, uh, a tool and you placed it into the hands of parents to
00:18:37.000
personally combat and beat back the tyranny that is coming to their children.
00:18:43.560
Well, first of all, by doing the most important thing, which would be to exit your children
00:18:48.340
from the public education system, because the public education and your company, uh, your
00:18:52.600
country, as it sounds, uh, has happened in ours as well, has been completely hijacked and
00:18:59.400
Um, it's nothing but a distribution pipeline for government propaganda to turn our children
00:19:05.140
into obedient little lemmings who will put masks on their faces, uh, injections into their
00:19:10.480
bodies and, uh, believe that boys can be girls and girls can be boys and do whatever the almighty
00:19:16.840
government says, uh, as the provider and protector and the safekeeper of, of all things from your
00:19:22.560
health to your education, to your family and everything, uh, your money and, and your freedoms.
00:19:27.240
And, um, this notice of liability for parents who are not yet able to take their kids out of
00:19:33.840
school allows them from what I understand to hand to the principal, hand to the teacher, to
00:19:39.560
the administrators, a notice that puts them on notice that if they participate in exposing
00:19:49.600
children to pornographic materials, to, to obscenity and lewdness, that there are laws on the books
00:19:56.580
that will hold them personally reliable, uh, liable, not just the school. They can't, they don't have
00:20:02.780
the excuse of, well, I'm just being, I'm just doing what I'm told and I'm being paid as a teacher to
00:20:06.520
show this stuff to the kids. No, you personally are on the hook, liable, liable for, uh, exposing
00:20:13.440
children to pornography. And there are criminal, uh, and civil penalties for that. That now gets them
00:20:20.640
where it, it means something to them. There's a personal pressure point that is now going to get
00:20:26.560
them on the side of what is good and, and lawful. And I've not heard of anybody else doing this.
00:20:33.160
That's absolutely fantastic. Yeah. So thank you for that, Kirk. We started this, uh, back in March
00:20:39.720
of 2021 to get the masks off children and it was very successful. I hate to say it this way, but for
00:20:45.960
the parents that were brave enough to use it, I mean, their children were being abused on mass
00:20:50.800
everywhere. They were not the spreaders of this virus. In fact, their strong immune systems should
00:20:56.880
have been good for grandma and grandpa. And, you know, it was about matter of a barometer to measure who
00:21:02.640
was complying, even for all of society, they're useless. Then we, uh, started notices of liability
00:21:09.760
for employees to give to employers, uh, against the unions. This is the one for the, uh, SOGI 123,
00:21:17.760
which we launched, launched in June of 2022. And we had a great success rate with the notices of
00:21:25.300
liability against the VAX. And, uh, prior to me creating the notice of liability for the sexual
00:21:31.860
orientation and gender identity, because it's holding that school board trustee, say her name is
00:21:37.520
Susie Smith. We're holding Susie Smith personally liable. And it is not her under the protection of a
00:21:45.040
school board trustee. They don't have that protection. It's the same as if a trustee were to come in and
00:21:51.280
physically abuse somebody, sexually abuse somebody. And so the notice of liability, it's not a legal
00:21:57.120
document in and of itself until we use it as evidence. So it's basically, we're serving you saying
00:22:04.060
under all of these grounds that we have set out, we're letting you know that what you're doing is
00:22:09.020
either illegal or causing harm. And in this situation, it's both because we know that children
00:22:15.140
are being harmed by this. It's leading to them being confused, uh, puberty blockers, antidepressants,
00:22:22.300
and some having their bodies mutilated. And it's illegal because you are deceiving children,
00:22:27.580
you, you know, under your care, under your trusted position of authority, and you are, uh, sexualizing
00:22:35.160
them. And we don't have a lot of good judges in Canada, but what has happened as a result of this,
00:22:42.880
this is breaking down. And across Canada now, thank God in the United States, you have 26 states
00:22:49.940
that are passing legislation to protect children. And we were in a real mess in Canada until about
00:22:56.200
two months ago when our New Brunswick government said, Hey, you know what their parents have rights
00:23:01.500
to know what's going on with their children. And then Manitoba and Saskatchewan and Toronto and Ontario
00:23:07.040
have all got on board in Saskatchewan. We recently had a huge win because they were going to bring in
00:23:14.160
the SOGI 123 secretly under the radar in September. And we started lobbying government
00:23:20.420
in an April. When we found out about this, we started advising them that there is measurable harm
00:23:25.680
in other provinces to show that this program is causing harm to children. And as a result, we were able
00:23:32.700
to advise the, uh, government of Saskatchewan, the Minister of Education, that there was measurable harm
00:23:40.860
in other provinces that have already implemented this learning resource and that they could be held
00:23:45.800
personally liable and accountable. And so as a result, uh, last week, the Minister of Education,
00:23:52.700
Dustin Duncan, ended up putting a pause on the SOGI and, uh, disallowing any other NGOs from coming in
00:24:00.860
teaching sexual health, et cetera, such as Planned Parenthood. And so this has been a really huge win.
00:24:06.560
We haven't had to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for lawyers. Uh, we didn't have to go
00:24:11.480
before corrupt judges to get this decision. And, uh, we are a hundred percent committed to keep going
00:24:18.340
at this until this is eradicated from our school system. And, uh, so anyways, and as I see down in
00:24:25.140
the States, you guys are having some very good success in there. And, uh, that has been, um, inspirational
00:24:31.540
and motivational for us in Canada. Hmm. I have a pastor friend, Gary Hamrick in Virginia, who just
00:24:40.460
started a brand new school and they had the greatest enrollment rate in the state of Virginia at this
00:24:48.820
school. I think in the history of first days, uh, of enrollment and because parents were not just
00:24:54.680
walking their children to this school, but running their children to this school because it was a school
00:25:00.760
that's going to partner together with parents as the primary teachers and assist them in teaching
00:25:06.940
their children a biblical worldview. Um, education is, is enormous. Uh, we, we understand that. Um,
00:25:13.680
we have a founding father here in the U S, uh, Noah Webster, who gave us Webster's dictionary. He was a
00:25:18.020
founding father and also, uh, known as the father of American education. And he said that every civil
00:25:24.260
government is founded on some religion or, uh, philosophy of life and the education of that
00:25:31.600
nation will propagate the religion of that nation here in America, that religion is Christianity.
00:25:36.460
And he said that it was sewn into the hearts of people for two centuries through the home and
00:25:43.420
through private and public schooling and through the church and our success and our liberty is the
00:25:51.900
result of that biblical way of life. And the continuation of our prosperity and our freedoms depends on
00:26:01.340
the continuation of teaching our children, the principles of Christianity. So, um, this is, as you said,
00:26:10.180
it's baked into the Magna Carta. This is baked into our documents of Liberty, uh, that are connected
00:26:16.280
all the way back to the scriptures themselves. Uh, they're baked into our founding documents.
00:26:22.080
And I think it is just, it is brilliant that you have gotten ahold of these things and you've
00:26:28.520
repurposed what the enemy has meant for evil and used it for good. I even heard you just mentioned a
00:26:33.980
phrase of safe spaces. Hey, what a great idea. You're right. You're right, folks. We need safe spaces
00:26:39.880
for our children so that they are not being abused with this. So G one, two, three stuff. Uh, we need
00:26:49.080
to let, you know, because we're Christians that we care about you. If I were in your position,
00:26:53.860
I wouldn't want to be blindsided by a lawsuit holding me personally, uh, liable for damaging and
00:27:00.700
harming children physically and emotionally. And, um, mentally I would want to know. And so I'm giving
00:27:07.500
you this notice of liability because I care about you and about our children. Exactly. Yeah. And when
00:27:14.480
I say measurable harm, I have moms who are in touch with me and some of the most sad stories. One is a
00:27:20.520
young woman that at 14 years old, trans people were invited into the school without parental knowledge,
00:27:27.020
which is what they're doing everywhere, giving their testimony of how they transformed from a girl
00:27:33.880
into a boy and how their life is so much more fulfilling, which is a complete and utter lie. And now these
00:27:39.820
kids are hearing, if you happen to feel this way, if you, you're gender dysphoric, if you're not
00:27:44.700
comfortable, you know, in your body and what a reckless thing to say to young women and young men who are
00:27:51.260
developing. And as a result with this one lady, her 14 year old daughter, not only began down the path of
00:27:58.040
being lesbian, then bi, etc. It seems to morph and evolve for them. And it's very confusing state. She also got into
00:28:05.840
the group who were doing drugs. And ultimately, at the age of 20, she had a fentanyl overdose, but not before she
00:28:13.580
had realized that she'd been deceived. And she'd, she'd, unfortunately, she's passed away. Her mother is
00:28:19.260
devastated. But this is directly related to what the school has taught them. And then Sarah is another gal that I've had on my
00:28:27.240
school on my show. Exact same story at the age of 14. Trans activists came into the school, gave their stories.
00:28:35.280
They're now going in teaching this to grade 11 year old olds as well. And Sarah at the age of 20 realized something was
00:28:42.220
wrong. And she got off the antidepressants. Because if your kids are on antidepressants, that's because they're trying to
00:28:47.920
numb them and dumb them down from being able to think and process through this. Then they get them on the puberty blockers and
00:28:54.420
fast track many of them to the surgeries, which is what happened to Sarah. And at the age of 21, she ended up at church
00:29:02.500
with her mom and dad. And the pastor was teaching on biblical sexuality. And she realized that she'd been
00:29:08.400
deceived. And she is detransitioning. And she has turned her life back to the Lord, but not without first having
00:29:15.280
her breasts removed and facial hair and now having to undo the damage that began in the school systems.
00:29:23.360
And so action is coming. And so the trustees better figure out what side of this war they want to be on,
00:29:31.160
because they're going to be held accountable at one point. And who knows which one of them it's going
00:29:37.560
to be. But we're coming for them. That's for sure. Wonderful. This is this is actually this is so
00:29:45.300
encouraging. You know, so many of us watch the news, we turn on the television, in hopes that we
00:29:52.440
might hear something of that gives us hope, we want to be aware of what's happening, so that we're ready
00:29:59.120
for, for for some disaster. And we usually end up turning off the television with a sense of feeling
00:30:07.660
numb, and feeling a low grade fear that just interrupts our sleep, and inches us closer and
00:30:17.620
closer to the cliff of despair. And what we want to hear is the kind of things that you're saying right
00:30:23.200
now. We want to see action that has measurable improvements. And the other thing that I'm learning
00:30:30.580
just by this conversation is that, you know, we can actually learn from the enemy, because their
00:30:37.160
techniques work. And what's interesting, for example, a trans activist can come into a school
00:30:43.560
and as a result of their testimony, can change the worldview of a young person. Doesn't that sound
00:30:50.980
familiar? Isn't that what we hope happens when a Christian goes into a school or a youth group and
00:31:00.160
shares their testimony? It could change a godless atheist and to to adopt a biblical worldview and
00:31:08.340
transform their life. So you see, I see the enemy is really just picking up our biblical playbook
00:31:15.480
of sharing our personal testimony in order to transform people, only they're taking them from
00:31:23.000
light to darkness. Why don't we bring out the scriptures again and apply all the principles of
00:31:30.580
God, all the tactics and strategies of love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, speaking the truth in
00:31:37.000
love, being compassionate, caring one another's burdens, rescuing those from the fire while there's
00:31:43.620
still time. If we would do that, I believe that we would have the blessing of God behind that,
00:31:53.080
you know, rather than the favor of the devil that may seem to win some here and there and more and
00:31:59.620
more, we would have the favor of God and the power that raised Christ from the dead behind a movement
00:32:06.800
leading people back to truth and goodness and beauty. There's great reasons for hope.
00:32:14.020
Well, and I, you know, you may not realize this, but you have been an inspiration of hope for
00:32:19.420
everyone as well. Like even, especially with Action for Canada, when you wrote your book,
00:32:24.860
As You Grow, and started going into those libraries, we were going, wahoo! And, you know,
00:32:30.220
celebrating this because of the onslaught of drag queens that were rising up, you know, within our
00:32:36.900
public libraries, being invited into schools. And here you were with this amazing book to speak
00:32:42.980
life into children, to nurture their goodness. And, and that was an easy journey for you at times as
00:32:50.680
well. Let's talk a little bit about that. There's the book. We're hoping that people can get their
00:32:55.220
hands on that. Now, can you clarify something for me, Kirk? My understanding is, is that your book
00:33:01.280
cannot yet be shipped into Canada. Is that correct? I understand that through Amazon, you can get
00:33:08.920
shipments into Canada. So you can go to the website at bravebooks.com. That's bravebooks.com to learn all
00:33:18.260
about that and many other books, which are all, they share the same characters that live in, in the
00:33:24.440
universe, uh, that we call Freedom Island. And, uh, interestingly, Freedom Island is shaped, uh, in
00:33:30.400
the form of the original 13 colonies of the United States of America. And, uh, the idea is for all of
00:33:36.600
these characters, uh, to be, be teaching the next generation of freedom fighters, the heroes to protect
00:33:44.060
the freedom on Freedom Island. And that's what we need to be doing in Canada as well. So, uh, my book is
00:33:49.660
called, as you grow, it teaches children, uh, how to grow the sweet fruit of the spirit, uh, through the
00:33:55.160
seasons of life, love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, self-control, faithfulness. And then I
00:34:00.160
wrote a second book, uh, that is called pride comes before the fall. And that's a book, uh, that teaches
00:34:08.020
children the valuable lesson of humility. And, uh, with our pride months, so-called this last June,
00:34:15.680
we released this book on June 1st and we, uh, debuted it in Seattle, Washington, where, uh,
00:34:23.020
there, there was quite a bit of protesting going on, uh, because they assumed this was a book that
00:34:28.040
was anti LGBT. Actually, it's not. Um, it's, uh, based on Proverbs 16, 18, I believe it is that
00:34:34.880
pride comes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. And that it's better to be humble
00:34:41.080
than to share plunder with the proud. So, uh, this caused a bit of controversy, but it's, uh,
00:34:48.080
the good kind of controversy because it's bringing parents to that place that you've been bringing
00:34:52.680
them, uh, to be awake, to be alarmed, and then to be activated. And that's what we've got to do.
00:35:00.580
There's too many of us who have just been lulled to sleep with, um, promises from the government
00:35:06.420
with, uh, a lazy, um, luxurious lifestyle, uh, or whatever the excuse is, but we've been entrusted
00:35:14.220
with the sacred, uh, treasure of the hearts and minds and souls of our children. And we have got
00:35:20.360
to take care of them. This, this is our sacred duty. We do. We have to invest in them. Uh, what is
00:35:26.960
it good? Marxist tyrants have always known that the, uh, future of a country relies on the hearts and
00:35:32.780
minds of the children of the children. And, uh, they've worked, uh, Hitler had the Hitler youth,
00:35:38.160
uh, today is the radical trans, uh, youth, the Marxist youth. Uh, they're using our schools as
00:35:44.420
petri dishes of indoctrination, uh, marching out Marxist soldiers. And if we don't like the looks of
00:35:50.660
this, then we need to do something about them. I really want to encourage our viewers that you would
00:35:55.880
go on to brave books and then go to your local libraries and either buy the books and bring them
00:36:03.220
in and encourage them to carry books that positively influence the hearts and minds of
00:36:08.680
children. And, and so that was exciting when I was looking the other day and I saw the new book about
00:36:13.480
pride comes before a fall. And isn't it just so, uh, through television, media, music, uh, we're in a
00:36:19.820
fast food credit card generation where, uh, you know, our young people don't understand the art of
00:36:28.080
working for something and having the right kind of pride in working and earning. They can easily go
00:36:35.220
into debt. And I think all the way around what you are doing Kirk and investing into our children is
00:36:43.520
essential if we're going to have, uh, positive, great leaders for the future. And, and I think
00:36:50.440
that's something that we really need to focus on. Absolutely. Absolutely. You know, uh, I'm one of
00:36:58.000
those who feel like I'm late to the game. I'm 53 years old and I'm late to the, the realization
00:37:04.280
that all these things that my grandparents told me, the things that I was, uh, made to, to read and
00:37:12.260
learn about in school when, when I was in school are so much more important than I realized as a young
00:37:18.080
man. And it wasn't until I had children. And I realized now that these things really matter.
00:37:24.820
And I just thank God that, that you and I and others who are listening here have an opportunity
00:37:33.040
to repent, to turn back to God and say, Oh God, we've been so foolish. All of this tyranny
00:37:40.220
at least I can say this, all of this tyranny that I see in my generation has happened on
00:37:49.860
our watch. We, we have roots and a foundation and a legacy that was purchased with blood and sacrifice
00:38:00.720
that has given us unprecedented freedom in the world. But that freedom has been used for license,
00:38:09.800
to sin and abuse people. And we have allowed the, the, um, the, the governmental and the family
00:38:20.040
and the church structure to be infested with termites. And we've not done the hard work of
00:38:26.020
evangelism and, uh, honest to goodness discipleship to keep the integrity and the foundation strong
00:38:35.060
in the family, the church and in civil government. And I, for one, want to be a part of, uh, of that
00:38:41.460
committed group of people who can do my, I can do my part, whatever that is, uh, that, that God allows
00:38:52.380
Well, I think what you're saying as well as is dead right on. I mean, there's that saying that goes
00:38:57.340
something like freedom is not free. It's not just naturally handed down to the next generation.
00:39:01.560
We have to fight for it. And, uh, we've been a generation, my mom and dad both came through the
00:39:06.380
war. My dad was from England. My mom was from the Netherlands. Their houses were bombed. They,
00:39:11.300
they went through poverty and they were some of those white Europeans that came to Canada
00:39:17.260
with nothing. And my dad had a grade six education and really had to work very hard. And so did my mom
00:39:25.560
to, uh, uh, uh, provide for us and to provide a home, but they bestowed upon us values and character
00:39:34.100
and, uh, you know, that the discipline that was healthy and needed. And, uh, I think that when
00:39:41.560
we're looking at what's being taught, uh, the reason I point out white Europeans is because of course,
00:39:46.840
the government is trying to come down with critical race theory and all of these other things,
00:39:52.380
but it's the, the bottom line is to destroy our founding fathers. It's to undermine the work that
00:39:58.520
they've done. And at the bottom of that is to under undermine Christianity. And I've always said,
00:40:04.720
my God doesn't know the color of your skin. He cares about the condition of your heart and mind.
00:40:09.940
So this has nothing to do with white privilege. This has nothing to do with any of that because my mom
00:40:17.400
and dad are, are individuals, like I say, who are evidence that there was no white privilege there.
00:40:23.960
And if we're, you know, handing money over to our youth and giving them things for nothing,
00:40:30.420
which is what they did on mass through, uh, these government lockdowns, it was to buy votes.
00:40:36.000
Uh, mass immigration is to buy votes to keep these tyrants in office forever and ever.
00:40:41.240
And, and so there's so many different ways that we're needing to, uh, protect the walls of our
00:40:46.980
countries. And, and God says that we have a right to protect our territory and we have a duty to do
00:40:52.560
that. We have a duty not to allow false gods, gods to come in and take over our nation. We have a duty
00:40:58.880
to speak out against abortion and, uh, putting our children on the altar of Baal and Malik and having
00:41:05.620
them, uh, destroyed in society. And we have a duty and a responsibility at this point to get on
00:41:11.220
our knees and to repent and ask God to forgive us for our complacency and, uh, to rise up and do
00:41:19.120
something about that. And it comes with the promise in second Chronicles that he will heal our land.
00:41:24.040
And, uh, I can hear that you're doing that in the United States. We're doing that in Canada.
00:41:29.100
And because of that, you know what, that faith of a mustard seed is moving mountains and God hears us.
00:41:34.860
That's right. That's right. And Tanya, um, I, I was reminded by my mentor, uh, Dr. Marshall,
00:41:41.220
Foster, who recently went on to be with the Lord. There's a, there's a hole in my heart,
00:41:44.720
the size of a meteor crater. Uh, I, I, I miss him so much, but he said, Kirk,
00:41:50.300
he said, remember, he said throughout history, revivals have always come during times of moral
00:42:03.380
decline, spiritual apathy, and economic collapse. This is when people wake up and they turn back
00:42:11.160
to God and we're about due for another one right now. They, they, they, they, they tend to come in,
00:42:18.240
in waves, maybe 50 years apart and we are there. And so I'm hoping and praying that, uh, people will
00:42:28.880
thank God for COVID, that they will thank God for the masks, thank God for, uh, the trans movement,
00:42:36.460
not because they are intrinsically good. No, these things were evil, but God is the blessed controller
00:42:43.580
of all things. And what others mean for evil can be used for a good to, if, if it will wake us up
00:42:51.760
and, and, and rend our hearts and turn us back to the father, um, and use this as, as our wake up call
00:43:01.260
to perhaps see the church's finest, finest hour in Canada and in the United States and around the
00:43:11.300
world. And what you're doing, Tanya is, uh, it's spectacular. Yeah. Well, it's awesome. You know,
00:43:18.560
we have an amazing team at our national office. And, uh, when we look at what we're doing with
00:43:25.600
Action for Canada nationwide with all of our chapters, we have vetted our chapter leaders
00:43:31.040
and that's, that's a look, we are growing. We're committed to be in every single town and community,
00:43:36.760
wherever there's a mayor and city council, a township, wherever there are school board trustees,
00:43:41.560
we are focused on getting in there, reaching out to churches and raising up elected officials to,
00:43:47.740
uh, take back every level of government. And in the last election last year, we got a number of
00:43:54.700
our chapter leaders elected into these positions and we are doing this on a shoestring budget.
00:44:00.540
This is grassroots. And the reason it's successful is because all of our people understand that we are
00:44:07.240
at war and it is the kind of war where we don't see the bombs dropping around us, but there are mass
00:44:13.460
casualties in Canada, the United States and around the world. And until people realize, yes, you know
00:44:21.020
what, you've just come through summer, but until people realize that this battle is not over, they're
00:44:26.700
already talking about masks. They're already talking about a ridiculous other variant of COVID and they
00:44:32.720
understand what their God-given rights are and they're willing to assert those rights and that
00:44:38.020
they have a right to do that. Uh, we will continue, you know, to, to fall into tyranny. But I believe
00:44:45.200
that we are at the cusp. We are at a crossroads right now of having the ability to turn this around.
00:44:52.780
And for any of you who are watching and listening to Kirk and I, yes, we are devoted Christians.
00:44:58.400
You know why? Because we know the way, the truth and the life. And the only way is through
00:45:02.380
Christ Jesus. The only way out of this battle is through God. And if you look back on history,
00:45:08.640
it is when nations turn their back on God, that God does turn his back on his people for a period
00:45:14.540
of time. He does allow bad leaders. And you may be saying, well, I was a good person. You know what?
00:45:20.360
I, I didn't bring this on. It's bad governments, but you didn't care about who you were electing into
00:45:25.600
office. And this has been a personal attack against citizens in Western, um, countries around the world
00:45:32.940
because they were relying on our virtues as a nation and use them against us of love, of, of being
00:45:41.540
compassionate, of being caring and giving. And so they manipulated and they used in a psychological
00:45:48.380
military style warfare to attack us. So also give yourself a break. You know, there's grace in the
00:45:55.660
middle of this, but get on board and join us in this battle. We need all hands on deck.
00:46:02.180
That's right. You're talking about the psyops that are used to control people, not physically,
00:46:08.480
but next generation warfare is, uh, to move people and control them by capturing the control center,
00:46:18.800
which is their mind, and then get them to do what you want them to do voluntarily.
00:46:23.820
And you're right. Christians have, uh, we, we've, we succumb to this idea that if we're all about love
00:46:30.900
and they'll even quote Bible verses, you know, um, uh, love your neighbor as yourself. And if you were a
00:46:36.700
real Christian and you really cared about people, you wouldn't be spreading that virus around the
00:46:40.580
way that you are without a mask. And, uh, and, and, and it's, it's, it's sneaky and crafty on their
00:46:48.300
part, but it just speaks to our, our gullibility. It speaks to some of the biblical illiteracy that we
00:46:55.540
don't, if, if we're not understanding that these are being ripped out of context and manipulated to
00:46:59.580
be used against us, but thank God for action for Canada. Thank God for all of those people out there
00:47:05.360
and people here who are recognizing it, who are praying, who are turning their hearts back to God
00:47:10.820
on a personal level. And they are rising up and standing against this and providing positive
00:47:15.240
alternatives, uh, like you're doing. Well, and, and again, I'm going to turn that back to you as
00:47:21.280
well, Kirk, because, uh, when I was doing my research, which I love doing when we have guests on,
00:47:26.580
I had no idea that it wasn't just a matter that you've written two books as you grow and pride comes
00:47:32.440
before a fall, but you have written many books, I believe with Ray Comfort. And is that correct? I
00:47:40.020
saw a full list and of books giving instruction. And, uh, maybe you could tell us a bit about that.
00:47:48.980
Yeah. So Ray Comfort and I are pals from way back. Uh, he's a Kiwi from New Zealand. Uh, he likes to say
00:47:55.660
that, uh, Australia is a tiny little Island off the coast of New Zealand. And, and, uh, we became
00:48:02.400
friends when I saw him open air preaching in New York city in a video. And I was just, uh, amazed at
00:48:08.920
his, um, ability to remind me of the apostle Paul speaking to the pagans of his day. And we got to be
00:48:18.020
friends. I wanted to learn his evangelism methods and we wrote a few books together and we did a
00:48:22.980
television program called the way of the master. So we've got a couple of books. Uh, one of my
00:48:28.240
favorites is called, um, uh, the school of biblical evangelism. And it's a big thick book with 101
00:48:36.380
lessons on biblical evangelism, essentially, uh, sharing the gospel the way that Jesus did,
00:48:43.360
which is not just, um, giving a person a hug and saying, God loves you and has a wonderful plan for
00:48:48.460
your life. But, uh, using the moral law of God, like a doctor uses a cat scan or an MRI to show the
00:48:58.100
patient that there is serious disease going on and they can see it with their own eyes. Uh, they
00:49:03.740
perceive the problem and then they, they, uh, appreciate the fact that the doctor has a cure
00:49:09.880
and they're willing to appropriate it, uh, because they know that it can save their life. This is, uh,
00:49:16.340
the concept of law before grace or biblical evangelism or the way of the master, the way that
00:49:22.600
we like to say it. That's beautiful. And I also want to cover a couple of your movies before we let
00:49:29.600
you go because, uh, they have had such an impact and one of them was fireproof. Uh, you played the
00:49:36.000
role of a fireman. You were married in a relationship that was struggling and there was a process for
00:49:42.820
couples who are going through these kinds of hardships on, on the brink of separation and
00:49:48.320
divorce on, on how to recover. And, and so I think this is a really good opportunity as we're talking
00:49:54.660
about our children, what the best possible gift you can give your child is a healthy, strong marriage.
00:50:02.580
And so I would encourage our viewers to watch this movie fireproof to share it with others who,
00:50:08.720
you know, are possibly, uh, in, in a broken relationship and how they can move and recover.
00:50:15.020
So, uh, yeah, thank you. That movie was absolutely amazing.
00:50:19.940
Oh, thank you for mentioning that. What an honor to be a part of that. Uh, the Kendrick brothers have
00:50:25.720
made so many good movies like that from the subject of marriage with fireproof to parenting with
00:50:31.580
courageous and, and, uh, reminding us that war, uh, prayer is a powerful weapon in their movie called
00:50:38.120
war room. Um, I had a chance to make another movie with them recently after 10 years, uh, of, uh, of,
00:50:46.660
of doing our own thing. We made a movie called life Mark and life Mark came out this last summer in
00:50:51.320
movie theaters based on a true story about an 18 year old girl who changed her mind on the abortion
00:50:57.380
table and decided to give life to her child. Um, 19 years later, she was contacted by this young man
00:51:07.140
who says that he wants to meet up with her and she thinks he probably hates her for abandoning him
00:51:11.800
as an infant. And instead the opposite is true. He wanted to thank her for the choice that she made
00:51:17.360
to give him life because he loves his life. He loves his family and she is his hero. And, uh,
00:51:24.920
I got to play the adoptive father in that movie, which I know a little something about because
00:51:29.240
my wife and I have six children, four of whom are adopted.
00:51:34.840
Yeah, I was reading that as well. And I was so excited because I recently saw life Mark and, uh,
00:51:40.920
it moved me to tears and it was, it's a movie that I just wish, uh, everybody would see. And that's
00:51:47.660
why I wanted to promote it today on the show. I really encourage people to watch, uh, fireproof
00:51:53.100
life Mark. I want people to see your homeschool awakening and as well, the left behind video
00:52:00.300
series. Uh, because I think, you know, many people feel like, Oh man, it feels like we're in the end
00:52:06.820
times. And you have, uh, some people have just this, again, this window of opportunity. You may be,
00:52:13.120
uh, having this conversation with yourself, like, is there a heaven and is there a hell? I see a whole
00:52:18.020
lot of evil going on in the world. And if you're willing to, uh, you know, admit there's evil,
00:52:23.380
there's gotta be good. And only God is good. And I think that, uh, left behind is a movie that
00:52:30.340
compels people to take a deeper look at that, uh, you know, in order to make a decision.
00:52:37.420
Yes. I, I, I've, I've, I've heard that, that that movie has had that effect. I think it had that
00:52:42.320
effect on my, my sister, Candace. Um, and you know, I, I think regardless of your, your eschatological
00:52:50.900
views and the timing of the second coming, uh, I won't go into it too, too much, but, uh, theologically
00:52:57.400
I, I, uh, I, I, I think I left left behind behind and I've, uh, my views have evolved with regard to
00:53:06.260
end times and all of that. However, um, the reality is that, um, we've been given the blessing
00:53:16.580
of living here on this earth for a certain number of days that only the Lord knows. And in the time
00:53:22.260
that we have, let's make the most of it. Let's honor God with all of our hearts, with an undivided
00:53:28.240
heart. Let's love our neighbors. Let's raise our children. Let's grow the city, advance the kingdom,
00:53:34.700
slay the giants, impact the culture. Let's go. Uh, time, time is a wasting. And, um, this is a
00:53:43.520
great blessing we have to be alive, uh, for, for God to have passed over our, our, our sins because of
00:53:50.040
the, the blood of Christ and the opportunity to make inroads for the kingdom of God.
00:53:56.520
So the homeschool awakening is a documentary that I made just this last year, and it documents
00:54:02.940
how during COVID, the number of families in the United States that homeschooled their kids
00:54:09.500
doubled. And many of those families decided not to send their children back to public school.
00:54:17.260
Once the lockdowns were, were, were, uh, put away and the schools opened back up because they realized
00:54:24.740
and were horrified at how the schools had broken the parents' trust and were teaching their children
00:54:30.760
abhorrent, lewd, and obscene, and un-American ideas. So this documentary answers many of the
00:54:39.460
common questions about homeschooling. How do you do it? How do you get started? Will kids get a good
00:54:43.340
education? What do colleges think of homeschool students? What sort of jobs can they get? Uh,
00:54:48.180
how in the world do I bring an entire school system into my home? Do I have to be a math teacher
00:54:52.280
and a music teacher and a science teacher? Uh, we follow 17 families who go into the journey of
00:54:59.200
homeschooling and we watch how they do it. And they're all different. Some of them are interracial
00:55:03.660
families. Some of them are, um, um, business owners. Some of them are inner city families,
00:55:09.480
rural families, and we watch and see how they process everything, how their kids are learning through
00:55:15.900
different styles of education and how they're turning out. So if you have questions about homeschooling,
00:55:20.920
wondering if this is even a biblical idea, uh, if you have what it takes to do it,
00:55:26.740
I would strongly recommend you watch this documentary. It's an hour long,
00:55:30.880
the homeschool awakening, uh, millions of parents are discovering the blessing
00:55:35.140
of taking back their children's education. Okay, great. I had included the trailer when I released
00:55:43.180
the action the other day, so it will be in the description as well. We'll provide, uh, many of the
00:55:48.280
links that Kirk and I have spoken about today. And I'm just really, I'm going to have Alex Newman on
00:55:54.020
next week. And they put together public school exits. I've had him on a few times. I met him many
00:56:00.420
years ago. He came to Canada and we spoke at the same conference and we've, uh, grown this, uh,
00:56:05.500
friendship and, uh, they were part of public school exit. And my understanding is that at least
00:56:10.300
two million children have been removed from the public school system to alternative homeschool or
00:56:16.820
like you say, churches that are opening up schools, et cetera. And in Canada, uh, with Action for Canada,
00:56:22.620
we have homeschool revolution where we are just encouraging parents. If you need help,
00:56:28.040
please go to Action for Canada's page homeschool revolution. We've got a homeschool association
00:56:33.420
directory there, and we have vetted amazing homeschool associations in every single province across the
00:56:39.680
country to make this as easy as possible. And Doris is our homeschooling lead. You can email her at
00:56:45.380
homeschooling at action for Canada.ca. We provide you parent webinars, et cetera, to help get you going.
00:56:51.780
It's much easier than you think. You can teach your kids more in two hours than they'll learn
00:56:56.580
in five hours at school without the risk of being, being indoctrinated. So we highly encourage you
00:57:02.700
to do what is never, uh, whatever is necessary to make that happen. And we encourage grandparents
00:57:08.320
and the family to get involved in raising our children and make this happen. And, uh, so Kirk,
00:57:14.520
thank you so much for joining us on the show. Is there anything that you'd like to add in closing?
00:57:20.600
Thank you. You are exemplary in these principles that you're teaching and the way in which you're
00:57:25.560
communicating them. And I want to just encourage everybody who's watching right now. Um, if, if,
00:57:32.180
if you are feeling, uh, that Holy spirit fire within you and it, and, and, and it's almost as
00:57:38.800
though God is, is speaking to you saying, get involved in what's going on here. You know, you
00:57:43.860
don't want to, uh, to have regrets later. You want your life to count for something every hour that you
00:57:50.220
have, get involved with action for Canada. Um, just looking at that map of, of all the different
00:57:55.680
chapters across the different provinces, uh, get involved in one. If there's not one near you
00:58:00.000
start one. Um, I want to start action for Canada here in the United States. I'm thinking to myself,
00:58:05.880
wait a minute. I don't know if that's allowed, but I want to stay friends with you. I want to
00:58:10.780
continue to learn from you and what you're doing. And, uh, I want to partner with you in things.
00:58:16.640
So I would love that. And everyone listening, please, please, uh, this, this is the wake up call.
00:58:24.420
Answer the clue phone, join in with both feet, get on this and, uh, and participate.
00:58:30.560
Right. Thank you so much, Kirk. And I want to encourage everybody again, all of Kirk's links
00:58:34.780
will be in the description below when we, uh, launch this on rumble. I'm going to give a special
00:58:41.420
shout out right now to my friend, Danielle Pistilli. You and I had some challenges getting you on the show
00:58:46.440
today, and I'm so glad that it worked out. And my friend Danielle was, uh, critical and helping to
00:58:52.260
reach out to Aaron and get this to happen. And, and I can see for greater reasons, you know, why it is
00:58:57.920
Kirk that you and I have met. And I look forward to working together with you and having some
00:59:02.520
conversations of, uh, how we can to get this, uh, get action for Canada moded, whether it's
00:59:08.420
action, you know, for America, however, we're going to work it out. But I think we've got a good plan
00:59:13.600
and I think it can be implemented in the United States as well.
00:59:16.540
Well, I want to make sure you have all the support that you need for this, because this
00:59:20.340
is just, uh, exemplary, exemplary and phenomenal. So those of you out there, um, whatever your
00:59:28.040
opportunities, influences, and resources are, help Tanya and Action for Canada.
00:59:32.380
Kirk, would you actually close us in prayer today?
00:59:37.160
Our father in heaven, it is such a privilege to be able to, uh, to be alive, to not be a pile of
00:59:48.820
cinders, uh, because of our sin, but to be, um, the recipients of your grace and your mercy,
00:59:56.920
your kindness, your love, and your patience. Lord, uh, I'm so thankful that you are the God of the
01:00:03.400
same, the same sky and the same heaven, uh, that Tanya looks up to and that I look up to.
01:00:08.860
And then everyone across the whole globe looks up to. Lord, we're all breathing the same air.
01:00:14.260
Uh, we're drinking the same water. Uh, we're, we're, we're really living on the same land. It's all
01:00:18.860
what you've made. This is your world. And father, I just ask that, uh, you would remember that prayer
01:00:26.160
that your son gave, uh, when he said, may your kingdom come father and may your will be done
01:00:34.720
on earth just as it is in heaven. So father, please export your life-giving transformational
01:00:46.260
principles from the heavenly places to us here on earth. Thank you for your word. Thank you,
01:00:52.140
Holy spirit for illuminating your word and animating us as ambassadors from heaven. Lord,
01:00:59.460
reconcile this world to yourself fully and completely in the family, in the church and
01:01:04.420
in civil government, please protect moms and dads and grandparents help families Lord to get it right.
01:01:11.860
We love you. We thank you for the ministries you've given us. Help us Lord to serve you
01:01:17.840
with our whole hearts. And we ask this in Jesus name. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you.
01:01:27.420
God bless you, sister. God bless you. Thank you, Kirk.
01:01:30.560
Wow. What an amazing time with Kirk Cameron. He is just such a man of integrity. He, like I said at
01:01:49.380
the beginning is, uh, touching the lives and hearts and minds of millions of people. And he's just been
01:01:55.900
given such a blessing and an opportunity. And, uh, I, uh, I honor that. I love his uncompromising spirit.
01:02:02.620
That's what action for Canada is about. And, uh, we just want to continue moving forward. And, uh, of course
01:02:09.700
tonight and what we'll be talking about next week and, uh, September is going to be about our kids. And so
01:02:17.380
next week, Alex Newman will be joining us and he'll be talking about the public school exit. He'll be
01:02:22.760
talking about homeschooling. I believe he has five children and they're homeschooling them all as
01:02:27.700
well. And he's amazing. He's been on the show a few times. And so, uh, Trendu as well. Can we, uh,
01:02:34.020
go to the Bible verse, please? All right. Proverbs 22, six, it says, train up a child in the way he should
01:02:43.520
go. And when he is old, he will not depart from it. And this is something that is so important in this
01:02:50.140
day and age, as we're facing such darkness, as we're facing all of this corruption and deviancy
01:02:55.240
in the school, you can see why it's so important to raise a child in the way they should go. That
01:02:59.280
means to impact their minds and their thoughts, to put good thoughts in there and to educate them
01:03:04.440
well, because when they grow up and become, uh, adults and citizens, they participate in the world.
01:03:10.940
And it's just, how will they be participating in the world? Will, will they be participating
01:03:15.820
as Antifa style individuals? Will they be rude and not respect their elders? Or will these be,
01:03:23.460
uh, minds that have been shaped and molded for goodness? And so we have a choice to make, right?
01:03:28.660
Like I said, we're, we're at a crossroads right now. And I believe that, uh, the tides are turning
01:03:34.020
and I believe that together we are having an impact and, and that we can hit a home run and that we can
01:03:41.960
really turn this around. Uh, but as we said before, we need all hands on deck. And for those of you who
01:03:48.060
are able to give and support Action for Canada, we request that we've got amazing fall programs
01:03:53.560
coming up for our youth program. And for the parent webinar, Phil Lease will, and his team will be coming
01:03:59.640
on, uh, to teach biblical sexuality, to teach a healthy view of sexuality to our youth, to counter
01:04:06.440
what the world is teaching them. And as well for parents, how do I talk to my kids about this stuff,
01:04:11.200
right? And so we think it's really, really important to invest in Canadians. And so we hope
01:04:16.740
that you will, uh, you know, find the value in that and invest in Action for Canada as well.
01:04:21.640
So we look forward to seeing you next week. I hope you have a wonderful week and a great weekend.
01:04:41.200
I'm going to thank God and God alone for the ground that I'm standing on.
01:04:53.480
I'm going to thank our founding fathers for giving their lives and sacrificing so much for our freedom.
01:05:02.120
And I'm calling on you today. Don't put them to shame. Don't waste what they did. We have guaranteed rights in this country.
01:05:16.260
We are putting chapters across the nation. We are going to be in every town and every city and we are going to build communities within these communities of life-minded people who are actually going to care for one another again and love on each other and give each other the help when they're down.
01:05:41.380
We are going to use teams within chapters to support our businesses. The government's actions are completely 100% unlawful. Judgment will again be found on justice and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.
01:06:03.860
You have a virtuous heart if you are here today pursuing freedom and righteousness.
01:06:16.980
God says he will turn the sins of evil people back on them.
01:06:26.480
I take great comfort in that because I serve a mighty living God who has allowed us to go through this season of discomfort because we as a nation have turned our backs on him and we need to get right.
01:06:45.760
So I am just going to say God bless you and God bless Canada.
01:06:54.200
Thank you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you.
01:07:08.260
God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you.
01:07:11.040
God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you.
01:07:16.260
God bless you and God bless you and God bless you and God bless you.
