Bunny Brock teaches that praise, not just prayer, “obtains the answer.” Al Brock compares the letdown after a mountaintop experience to Elijah resting under a broom tree, before God sends him back to work. This is the closing Saturday session of the 1985 Florida Family CFO.
Al Brock and Bunny Brock teach on spiritual warfare, urging campers to put on the armor of God. At the Florida Family CFO in 1985, Al tells of a young woman who drove off an attacker in her dorm room by saying, “In the name of Jesus, get out of here.”
On the 4th of July at the Florida Family CFO in 1985, Bunny Brock and Al Brock share personal disciplines. Bunny prays instead of nagging her rebellious son. Al retells how a prisoner claimed a stolen shovel to spare his fellow captives and was beaten to death, transforming a brutal POW camp.
Bunny Brock tells of nearly dying at eighteen from a bleeding tumor. “I am a miracle,” she says. Al Brock then teaches on the barriers that block campers from wholeness: unconfessed sin, unforgiveness, and bondage. The healing and blessing service comes from the Florida Family CFO in 1985.
Al Brock traces his path from a twin brother’s shadow and a father lost to alcoholism, telling the Florida Family CFO in 1985 that prayer counseling healed both griefs. The path leads on to a runaway son’s homecoming under trees draped in white sheets as a sign of welcome.
Al Brock and Bunny Brock open the week’s evening service at the Florida Family CFO in 1985. Bunny urges campers to bring specific requests to God. Al then retells Esther and Mordecai, asking whether campers are here by accident or “for such a time as this.”
Johnny Johnson uses a vineyard hedged against foxes to argue that small, unconfessed sin, not the obvious kind, is what quietly kills a Christian’s spirit. He applies an oak tree and rope image to show how a wandering spouse or child is drawn back gently rather than snapped straight. He also tells how his daughter’s anger over a flag burned at her school led the boys responsible to buy the school a new one. The talk comes from the 1985 Florida Family CFO.
On July 4 at the Florida Family CFO in 1985, Johnny Johnson tells how a red-headed stranger let him carry a full-sized American flag in a Chicago parade as a boy. He then traces the First Amendment to a Baptist preacher named Leland, who sponsored James Madison for office to win freedom to worship. He closes with his wife’s high-risk pregnancy, when she refused the abortion her doctors urged and delivered a healthy son.
Johnny Johnson walks through the Lord’s Prayer phrase by phrase as a path out of personal bondage, retelling how a stuttering insurance salesman became a top seller and a paralyzed veteran became the top pot and pan salesman in his territory. He also tells of a Marine corporal who ran through sniper fire for a wounded friend and years later returned missing both arms. At the Florida Family CFO in 1985, he closes by having campers lay their bondages on a table: cigarettes, candy, notes of unforgiveness.
Johnny Johnson recalls being turned away from a childhood friend’s front door for being black, and how the boy’s mother invited him back in and reconciled them. He also describes his own baptism in the Holy Spirit years later. The talk was given at the Florida Family CFO in 1985.
