SID: Hello. Sid Roth here with “Something More!” And why something more? Because it’s twice the length of “It’s Supernatural!” television. And this is our new digital show. I want some feedback from ya. I want you to tell me what you think of it. And we’re going to get to the point where it’s going to be so interactive you’ll be able to send us questions while the show is on the air. That’s what my heart’s desire. I have a guest. I don’t believe I’ve personally met you, Robby. His name is Robby Dawkins but he has something to offer. The best word I know in Hebrew to describe Robby Dawkins is this guy has got “chutzpah!” Now the big question, Robby, is do you know what chutzpah is that you have? (laughing)
ROBBY: (laughing) I have heard the word but I am not quite sure what it means.
SID: It means NERVE! It means BOLDNESS!
ROBBY: (LAUGHING)
SID: Am I describing you? Am I nailing you right now?
ROBBY: I think my wife would completely agree with that, with that word. (laughing).
SID: Now according to my notes you were born in a missionary family. You were saved as a child. But there was a major thing that happened in your life. Your parents brought a heroin addict home to live in your home. Now I don’t know—
ROBBY: Yes.
SID: —that I would bring back a heroin addict to live in my home. How did you have such chutzpah?
ROBBY: (laughing) Well at the time I was nine years old so I really didn’t have much choice in the matter. But it was, it was my dad. You know I mean he was a—
SID: No, no, no. I mean how did he have so much chutzpah? That’s the better question.
ROBBY: How did he have chutzpah— I think it’s a “holy chutzpah” (laughing) that comes though.
SID: Yeah!
ROBBY: Uh, yeah. He, you know he just was seeing so many young people that were just roaming the streets, that had run away, that were getting into drugs and it just broke his heart, you know, and he wanted to do something about it. And you know this is, this is back in the ‘70’s. You know it would have been in the early-mid 70’s and just, he didn’t, didn’t know of very many programs. You know Teen Challenge wasn’t in our area—
SID: Uh huh.
ROBBY: —or things like that so there wasn’t a lot of ministries in the area that could draw to. And so he just said we need to help ‘em. And so he went out one night, found this young man, brought him home. And my wife, excuse me, my mother was like well where are we going to put him? And he says well you know we got a bed besides Robby’s bed. Let’s just put him in there.
SID: Oh, no!
ROBBY: And so, yeah, this is not, this is not something I recommend. But, but the Lord really did something spectacular with it. This story really demonstrates the redemptive power of God, I feel, because—
SID: I could have, I could have NEVER have put a heroin addict next to my daughter!
ROBBY: Exactly. Exactly.
