John Tesh Testimony Riverside Gospel Truth Seminar 2017
it’ll test them on in I just got to meet
got John and Connie this Wednesday was
the first time I’ve met them but you
know what they’ve already become my
newest best friends I’ve just loved to
end John had an awesome miracle happen
that he just heard about this afternoon
so I’d like to ask John and Connie come
on Connie I’d like to invite them up
here just to tell you a little bit about
what’s happened to them and I if I’m
correct it’s only been three or four
weeks ago that I think it was cha cha
right here that gave them some of my
materials it means these people are
fired up and love with the Lord and I
just but I don’t know why I miss my kids
I haven’t prayed about my throat yet
because I know it’s temporary and what
we’ve been praying about for John was
more important to our legend
well actually Connie does get her voice
back every every morning because we pray
about it but then she sings so allows
the worship services you know I’ve been
struggling because I’ve been singing all
right so yeah some of this isn’t you
just got to control yourself yeah yeah
well like you said I’m Italian yeah yeah
I want to use that later off you just
control yourself honey so so Connie and
I said I don’t want to take up too much
your time because I can’t wait for the
teaching tonight just yeah just like you
but I want a quick story because I think
maybe it’ll speak to you first of all
Connie I’ve been married we’re on our
25th year and
and it’s been you know when I was a
recovering Methodist and so I I grew up
on Long Island and when I got to college
I was sort of okay I’m Donna I completed
that whole thing and sort of went crazy
and then I met Connie in 1991 and we
were going out and and she said hey
would you like to come to my my church
and I said you know I really not really
not not interested I’ve already
completed that program and so she said
well if you like me you’ll come to my
church I said okay okay okay okay okay
tell me so if there have been thudding
gasps exactly so they’ve been so many
times in my life where this has happened
to me where Connie has put me in the
position of just being being being
blessed and what happens to me a year
and a half ago to sort of cut to the
chase is that my doctor sort of
accidentally found a lump and I long
story short I ended up with probably the
most aggressive prostate cancer gene you
could possibly imagine
thank the guys it’s one of the hospitals
here locally said you need to just get
your affairs in order and trying to make
lemonade out of lemons and and so we
went of course immediately into prayer
begging God and her for help and before
I knew the truth and and so we ended up
in this great Hospital and with this
amazing surgeon who’s a believer and he
ended up curing me operating on me and
curing me and and and they to this day
they said it was them one of the most
aggressive cancers they’d seen and one
of the most unusual so he pretty much
said I hit the jackpot and I was I
hadn’t had treatment I would have
probably wouldn’t have wouldn’t I made
it so we’re going about our lives and
then
how long ago was it when like if we
complete that month ago so a month ago I
had a checkup and the cancer had
metastasized and so it had moved to
another part of my body right right near
my my pelvis and so we would I get went
on this journey when traveling around
through which all these big hospitals
and all these tests and everything and
you know bone marrows which I’m sure you
guys will have these tests and it just
you know no fun and all these scans and
everything and I you know it you’ll
definitely resonate with this Andrew I I
my philosophy my paradigm changed from
really you know energetic and and
purpose driven guy to cancer patients
and so all of a sudden I had a cancer
story and I would tell that to people
see how you’re doing well I’ve got
cancer how you doing well I when you I
had the most very on the cash kept
playing these stories about how how
cancer was was killing me not realizing
the cancer had no dominion over me and
so it so we went through this process
and Connie was try was I was depressed I
was going through a terrible time I
couldn’t even even work I just you know
making plans for somebody to replace me
on day on the shows that we do and then
we about three weeks ago our friend
cha-cha sand of all we were we were in
church out in Chino Hills and she and
she said to me she said hey miss Akane
she said why don’t you won’t she will
listen to these these tapes and I mean
listen we we must have people give us
tapes like five or six a week you know
hey listen to this guy hey listen
there’s limit so we’re in the car and
I’m not gonna put this thing in there
this CD in the copy has to figure I’ve
already I’ve already heard all this so
Connie splits this CD in and and before
she does is shot says says you should
listen to him but but don’t pay don’t be
pulled off by his accidents because it’s
because it’s because it’s very different
well what what cha-cha doesn’t know is
that is it my whole family from the deep
south so all of a sudden the CD goes in
there and and Gomer pile comes on
and and starts and sorry I’m really
sorry about this no it’s true it starts
and starts it starts teaching and Connie
and I who have been in the words and you
know since forever all of us on our
heads are spinning around because we’d
never heard teaching like this before
and we’re realizing it oh my gosh we can
we can work with Jesus with God and we
can provide we can take the full
authority of God and work on the healing
here and Connie was it never stopped
praying for for healing for and for a
cure
she’ll destroy hell we weren’t finished
by the time we got home there was two
more on the first day on the first CD we
sat in the driveway with the CD cause it
was really sick I mean I mean and then
and then we met we met Andrew and and
Jamie on Thursday and we had breakfast
with him and they were telling us their
stories and we were like no we heard
that one no no we got that one together
and so we were we really read it for
three weeks we devour these these tapes
but just couldn’t get enough and I
realized when I look on Andrews face
that he we look at me like I’m afraid
these people might be stalkers but
anyway what happened today was well
about a week ago we got a result from
from UCLA from this high-end scan and
all of a sudden they’re like well we see
that tumor that you guys saw in Chicago
but now it’s not making much of a signal
and so we’re not really sure what’s
going on this is in the middle of these
of these teachings and then today and
why don’t you tell them what happened
because they can’t hear me
the Epis morning service I said to John
after he’s been prayed over and we have
agreed that he’s cured I said to him and
leaned over to him and I said you know
when we get the biopsy report back and
that’s what we’ve been waiting for is
they did a bone-marrow biopsy because
the doctors are very concerned that the
cancer has gone to his bones because
that’s what prostate cancer does oh look
my voice is back hey man
so we did we did the biopsy which was a
very very painful experience for him and
so I said to him today I said if the
biopsy report comes back positive you’re
going to have to take another test
before you get any treatment because now
you’re cured and you’re going to have to
show the doctors that your charge by
taking another test and then we finish
the service we went back to the hotel
and had some lunch and we’re sitting at
lunch and I got the email
I’m MD Anderson that it’s not it’s about
[Applause]
so I lay me to listen I I have to tell
you that you know I grew up I grew up as
and as an engineer as a scientist and
some of you may know me from working on
sports and the Olympics and
Entertainment Tonight I’ve lived in the
world for for so long but um this is it
this is amazing not only the healing
right but the but the teaching and and I
feel like I feel compelled to tell you
that that if if that CD from from ChaCha
had ended up in our car I don’t know
what would have happened to me and and
and I think I just would have been on
the on the same journey and so I really
want to exhort you guys and really and
really encourage you to do the same
thing you know one of the hardest things
to do
certainly in Hollywood right but one of
the hardest things to do for anybody is
to witness to a friend it’s really hard
sometimes to a non-believer because I
what I’m going to do my alternatives I’m
not going to lose a friend it can be as
simple it’s just taking one of these CDs
and saying hey listen to this guy
because not only does he make a heck of
a lot of sense but it’s always in the
word right and he’s hilarious I mean I
have you heard the story about him going
on the cruise if you haven’t heard that
story you know one more thing what we’re
saying for things okay so this book this
book right here this book is not
available here right this is an amazing
book living in God’s best but the one
thing we need to do is to go on Amazon
right or go on – go on go on the website
and by this book I’m going to tell you
why because then it’ll end up being a
best-seller and then people are get it
going to show up at people’s
recommendations right and they’re going
to say who is this guy and I think that
God Andrew I think I think that God
ended up putting together an experiment
one day he said hey what would happen if
I gathered up some of Paul’s DNA some of
Billy Graham’s and some of Gomer piles I
put them all together and what would I
get and if this guy so god bless you
thank you thank you
hey god bless you guys let me grow in
that great at the current testimony just
happened today got that report back
