You know you turn love, you gonna turn, got to

mouth water the money up, come come out.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
You're thinking, uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody.
You are listening to the voice, Come on dig me now.
One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Ain't
God been good to me? But then again, ain't He
been good to you? Two?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Though?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I mean, really, man, think of all the blessings God
has given you. You know what, that's a good news
today though, y'all. In the face of the world being
the way it is, the evilness that's out there, it
just it just seems like that's all that's on the
news sometimes. You know, we got we got news of
parents not really standing up being parents. We got news
(02:37):
stories of children turning on their parents. You got, you
got everything, the economy, you got places you thought used
to beautiful places to go. Now they got travel alerts.
It's just it's all over us. It's it's all over.
But the good news is there's something that you can
have in this relationship with God that gives you a
(03:02):
way to deal with it all. And I'm not saying
that it'll protect you from every single thing out that
is happening, because some things are going to happen to you.
You're going to be in an accident from time to time.
You're going to make a mistake and fall down from
time to time. But man, wouldn't it be incredible to
you for you if you understood that you had some
(03:25):
insurance in all of this that no matter what happened
to you, you know you will covered. You know, look,
insurance companies as good as they are, you know, like
our friends that stay Farm or any other insurance company
you know they do, they do some amazing things. Insurance
is a really really good thing to happen in the
event that something happens to you. You know, you may
(03:47):
not want to pay the premium, but guess what in
the event that something happens to you that insurance is
absolutely critical. Well, but guess what they cover certain things.
You could get life insurance, you can get auto insurance,
you can get accident insurance, you can get health insurance.
There is nothing that you can buy to safeguard you
(04:10):
against life's decisions. You know, if you make a mistake,
if you cheat, if you lie, if you if you
fall down and you can't seem to get it together,
and you make a crazy decision about how you're gonna
go about securing an income, there are there are no
(04:31):
policies you can buy for that. You can't buy a
policy if you stop being the man you're supposed to be,
and and and and give up on your children. You
can't buy a policy if something happens as a mother
and all of a sudden you're not the mother you're
supposed to be. But there is some insurance coverage out.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
There for you.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
And that relationship that you form with God, that friendship
that you form with help, that that alliance, that partnership,
that prayer that you put in all the time, there
is an insurance policy that you have taken out when
you form a relationship with your heavenly Father, when you
(05:15):
form a friendship, when you form a bond that protects you,
that protects you when these things happen in the event
that they happen. Now here's a great thing about prayer.
Prayer can head off some stuff from happening. It really
really can. Prayer can prevent some things from happening. You know,
(05:36):
I'll give you an example in my life. Okay, here
we go, because see, see it's the best way for
me to do it, because see, what I don't like
to do is talk to people without letting them know. Hey,
look I'm in this hole with you. I feel where yet? Okay,
here we go. I was making some decisions a few
years ago because what I thought I was doing was
(05:58):
counterbalancing something that was happening in my life. You know,
I thought that since I wasn't happy or well for
whatever the reason I thought I wasn't happy, if I,
as wrong as I am, wanted to blame somebody else
from my unhappiness. That's really if I make a bad
decision because I'm thinking I'm unhappy with somebody, Holy pardon too.
(06:22):
Wrongs don't make it right, and I make a decision
to do something wrong, and now the consequences come when
I do something wrong. See then that I already know,
as an intelligent thinking man, as most of you are,
that when you do something wrong, that you know there
is a consequence for that. I teach that to my sons.
(06:44):
When you do something wrong, there is a consequence. So
as an adult, I fully understood the consequence. And so
what I was doing was I was making some decisions
that was causing some consequences in my life, that was
delaying my happiness, delaying my progress, causing my business not
to go the way it could go, so forth and
(07:04):
so on. Well, what I started doing was I took
out this insurance policy called Prayer, and I started putting
it in my mix on a daily basis. And then
I started putting it in my mix, you know, two
three times a day. And then I found myself using
it all the time. And then I really started putting
it in when I didn't need any help, when I
(07:24):
wasn't in trouble, I started putting insurance in. I started
making deposits into the bank. I started paying my premiums
down and Prayer is like a premium, you just pay
into it. Then, when situations started coming up, now that
Prayer that I had put in, that in those premiums
I had paid it started preventing me from making the
(07:46):
decisions I was making in the past. Thus I didn't
have to suffer the consequences. Thus, my businesses didn't have
to be delayed in this progress because I had put
some payments on some premiums. I had taken out an
insurance policy with my life, my real life. I'm talking
about your life where you make your day to day
(08:08):
decisions in I'm not talking about see life. Insurance is
only good if you die. God has a policy that's
available that's available for you. Why are you living?
Speaker 3 (08:19):
See?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
In order for an insurance policy to pay, something bad
got to happen. Now, there may be some others out
there I don't know nothing about, but all the ones
I got my co insurance, they only come into play
if I have an accident. I have an accident insurance
policy where if something happens to me, I got accident,
I got, I got My voice is covered in case
(08:42):
something happened to that. I got that, but I got
to not be able to talk to cash that one.
You understand everything I got homeowners insurance. Don't nothing show
up on my homeowner's insurance unless it's a flood of fire,
of felt something bad got to happen for my insurance
to even make sense. When you take out the policy
(09:06):
with your heavenly father, when you pay the premiums of prayer,
and that's all it costs. Man, It ain't you. Ain't
got to have no money for this policy I put
into the policy. It pays me dividends and benefits for living.
Ain't nothing got to go wrong for me to cash
(09:27):
in on this policy. I use this policy for good things.
I give you example. I use this policy to ask
God to watch over my family when I travel, make
the decisions to pay your premiums in prayer. Talk to
your heavenly father, get you some insurance in your life.
(09:47):
And when you have little things like that, keep on stepping.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Man.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
God loves you.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Man, Man, I show hope you talk to God today
because guess what He shure would like to hear from you.

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
