  • Cancel culture where they're trying to deprive you of your
  • 00:12:48.028 --> 00:12:49.696
  • Trying to deprive you of your civil liberties just because
  • 00:12:49.830 --> 00:12:51.531
  • Civil liberties just because you speak up in the public
  • 00:12:51.665 --> 00:12:53.367
  • You speak up in the public square and say i want to defend
  • 00:12:53.500 --> 00:12:56.403

  • Available that will encourage mothers to give birth and in
  • 00:13:07.915 --> 00:13:10.651
  • Mothers to give birth and in that they want to target you.
  • 00:13:10.784 --> 00:13:12.052
  • That they want to target you. so it's wonderful the supreme
  • 00:13:12.386 --> 00:13:14.288
  • So it's wonderful the supreme court has ruled no.
  • 00:13:14.421 --> 00:13:15.722
  • Court has ruled no. these are private records.
  • 00:13:15.856 --> 00:13:17.124
  • These are private records. uh, you don't get to go after
  • 00:13:17.257 --> 00:13:18.959
  • Uh, you don't get to go after them.
  • 00:13:19.092 --> 00:13:19.259
  • Them. you don't get to have this kind
  • 00:13:19.393 --> 00:13:20.994
  • You don't get to have this kind of disclosure.
  • 00:13:21.128 --> 00:13:22.195
  • Of disclosure. i couldn't applaud it more.
  • 00:13:22.329 --> 00:13:23.630
  • I couldn't applaud it more. there's also a very well
  • 00:13:24.164 --> 00:13:25.866
  • There's also a very well established precedent for it.
  • 00:13:25.999 --> 00:13:27.401
  • Established precedent for it. so if you think it's some kind
  • 00:13:27.534 --> 00:13:28.635
  • So if you think it's some kind of new ruling, think again.
  • 00:13:28.769 --> 00:13:29.670
  • Of new ruling, think again. the federal election commission
  • 00:13:30.404 --> 00:13:32.906
  • The federal election commission when it was formed, uh, there
  • 00:13:33.040 --> 00:13:35.342
  • When it was formed, uh, there was a carve out for the
  • 00:13:35.475 --> 00:13:36.777
  • Was a carve out for the communist party.
  • 00:13:36.910 --> 00:13:37.577
  • Communist party. the communist party did not
  • 00:13:37.711 --> 00:13:39.413
  • The communist party did not have to disclose their donors.
  • 00:13:39.546 --> 00:13:41.048
  • Have to disclose their donors. uh, i think it was on the basis
  • 00:13:41.381 --> 00:13:43.283
  • Uh, i think it was on the basis that well, they weren't really
  • 00:13:43.417 --> 00:13:44.484
  • That well, they weren't really going to have any influence but
  • 00:13:44.618 --> 00:13:45.919
  • Going to have any influence but there would be obvious, uh,
  • 00:13:46.053 --> 00:13:48.956
  • There would be obvious, uh, persecution against any donor
  • 00:13:49.089 --> 00:13:50.590
  • Persecution against any donor to the communist party.
  • 00:13:50.724 --> 00:13:51.625
  • To the communist party. so those records were sealed.
  • 00:13:51.758 --> 00:13:53.226
  • So those records were sealed. uh, they weren't ever publicly
  • 00:13:53.760 --> 00:13:55.462
  • Uh, they weren't ever publicly just disclosed the supreme
  • 00:13:55.595 --> 00:13:57.297
  • Just disclosed the supreme court said yes to that.
  • 00:13:57.431 --> 00:13:58.699
  • Court said yes to that. so you look at these things how
  • 00:13:58.832 --> 00:14:01.568
  • So you look at these things how do we protect minority
  • 00:14:01.702 --> 00:14:02.970
  • Do we protect minority interest?
  • 00:14:03.103 --> 00:14:03.337
  • Interest? but most importantly how do we
  • 00:14:03.470 --> 00:14:05.806
  • But most importantly how do we protect the ability for people
  • 00:14:05.939 --> 00:14:07.441
  • Protect the ability for people to have influence in the public
  • 00:14:07.574 --> 00:14:09.276
  • To have influence in the public square?
  • 00:14:09.409 --> 00:14:09.676
  • Square? influence based on the dictates
  • 00:14:10.210 --> 00:14:12.112
  • Influence based on the dictates of their conscience?
  • 00:14:12.245 --> 00:14:13.146
  • Of their conscience? that's a fundamental american
  • 00:14:13.280 --> 00:14:15.582
  • That's a fundamental american right.
  • 00:14:15.716 --> 00:14:15.882
  • Right. we need to always uphold it.

  • 00:29:03.975 --> 00:29:05.676
  • Giving the neurosurgeon, um a better opportunity to fully
  • 00:29:05.810 --> 00:29:07.311

  • I love that how she practices joy um when few others could.
  • 00:48:00.348 --> 00:48:02.450
  • Joy um when few others could. was practicing it when she
  • 00:48:02.583 --> 00:48:04.685
  • Was practicing it when she wasn't.
  • 00:48:04.819 --> 00:48:05.019
  • Wasn't. getting exactly the answer to.
  • 00:48:05.152 --> 00:48:07.121
  • Getting exactly the answer to. what she prayed.
  • 00:48:07.254 --> 00:48:08.356
  • What she prayed. so long and so.
  • 00:48:08.489 --> 00:48:09.557
  • So long and so. hard for.
  • 00:48:09.690 --> 00:48:10.992
  • Hard for. and you know.
  • 00:48:11.125 --> 00:48:12.193
  • And you know. ,sometimes.
  • 00:48:12.560 --> 00:48:13.027
  • ,sometimes.
  • 00:48:12.560 --> 00:48:13.227
  • >> that's the end of the story.
  • 00:48:13.361 --> 00:48:14.462
  • >> that's the end of the story. and yet she.
  • 00:48:14.595 --> 00:48:15.896
  • And yet she. sets that example of you.
  • 00:48:16.030 --> 00:48:18.332
  • Sets that example of you.
  • 00:48:16.030 --> 00:48:18.532
  • >> could.
  • 00:48:18.666 --> 00:48:18.899
  • >> could. do it even when you're not
  • 00:48:19.033 --> 00:48:20.601
  • Do it even when you're not getting.
  • 00:48:20.735 --> 00:48:20.935
  • Getting.
  • 00:48:20.735 --> 00:48:21.135
  • >> what your heart desires.
  • 00:48:21.268 --> 00:48:22.336
  • >> what your heart desires. how do you suggest people do
  • 00:48:23.070 --> 00:48:25.172
  • How do you suggest people do that pursue that when their
  • 00:48:25.306 --> 00:48:26.807
  • That pursue that when their prayers aren't.
  • 00:48:26.941 --> 00:48:27.274
  • Prayers aren't. finding answers?
  • 00:48:27.541 --> 00:48:28.642
  • Finding answers? one of the things i learned in
  • 00:48:29.176 --> 00:48:31.078
  • One of the things i learned in doing this study is that it's
  • 00:48:31.212 --> 00:48:32.480
  • Doing this study is that it's not just some joy is not just
  • 00:48:32.613 --> 00:48:33.914
  • Not just some joy is not just something that you anticipate
  • 00:48:34.048 --> 00:48:35.549
  • Something that you anticipate as someone who's put your trust
  • 00:48:35.683 --> 00:48:36.951
  • As someone who's put your trust in jesus.
  • 00:48:37.084 --> 00:48:37.385
  • In jesus. yes, that's true but it's
  • 00:48:37.518 --> 00:48:38.986
  • Yes, that's true but it's something that you can also
  • 00:48:39.120 --> 00:48:41.022
  • Something that you can also participate in now.
  • 00:48:41.155 --> 00:48:42.023
  • Participate in now. yes.
  • 00:48:42.590 --> 00:48:42.857
  • Yes. um, savoring is one of my
  • 00:48:42.990 --> 00:48:45.092
  • Um, savoring is one of my favorite practices.
  • 00:48:45.226 --> 00:48:46.093
  • Favorite practices. it helps us to attract more joy
  • 00:48:46.227 --> 00:48:49.530
  • It helps us to attract more joy from the life that we are
  • 00:48:49.663 --> 00:48:50.765
  • From the life that we are already living so often with
  • 00:48:50.898 --> 00:48:52.600
  • Already living so often with joy we see it on the far side
  • 00:48:52.733 --> 00:48:54.835
  • Joy we see it on the far side of a dream realized or a goal
  • 00:48:54.969 --> 00:48:57.071
  • Of a dream realized or a goal achieved.
  • 00:48:57.204 --> 00:48:57.471
  • Achieved. but savoring actually helps us
  • 00:48:57.605 --> 00:49:00.107
  • But savoring actually helps us practice um the joy that we
  • 00:49:00.241 --> 00:49:02.343
  • Practice um the joy that we have in our everyday lives.
  • 00:49:02.476 --> 00:49:03.978
  • Have in our everyday lives. we don't need to add anything
  • 00:49:04.111 --> 00:49:05.379
  • We don't need to add anything in the way that you practice it
  • 00:49:05.513 --> 00:49:07.214
  • In the way that you practice it is you just ask your five
  • 00:49:07.348 --> 00:49:09.050
  • Is you just ask your five traditional senses what they're
  • 00:49:09.183 --> 00:49:10.885
  • Traditional senses what they're going to remember about
  • 00:49:11.018 --> 00:49:12.720
  • Going to remember about one small moment in your
  • 00:49:12.853 --> 00:49:14.522
  • One small moment in your everyday life.
  • 00:49:14.655 --> 00:49:15.356
  • Everyday life. so what do you see?
  • 00:49:15.489 --> 00:49:16.757
  • So what do you see? what do you hear?
  • 00:49:17.091 --> 00:49:18.392
  • What do you hear? what do you smell?
  • 00:49:18.526 --> 00:49:19.593
  • What do you smell? what do you taste and what do
  • 00:49:20.161 --> 00:49:21.829
  • What do you taste and what do you feel?
  • 00:49:21.962 --> 00:49:22.463
  • You feel? yeah and that helps you
  • 00:49:22.596 --> 00:49:24.698
  • Yeah and that helps you experience the joy of the lord.
  • 00:49:24.832 --> 00:49:26.100
  • Experience the joy of the lord. notice his goodness in your
  • 00:49:26.233 --> 00:49:27.535
  • Notice his goodness in your everyday life.
  • 00:49:27.668 --> 00:49:28.569
  • Everyday life. you know.

  • You know. you talk.
  • 00:49:29.503 --> 00:49:29.870
  • You talk.
  • 00:49:29.503 --> 00:49:30.071
  • >> about joy drawing us.
  • 00:49:30.237 --> 00:49:32.106
  • >> about joy drawing us. closer to the lord.
  • 00:49:32.239 --> 00:49:33.340
  • Closer to the lord. how does that work?
  • 00:49:33.474 --> 00:49:34.341
  • How does that work?
  • 00:49:33.474 --> 00:49:34.542
  • >> i mean.
  • 00:49:34.675 --> 00:49:34.975
  • >> i mean. obviously we sing songs.
  • 00:49:35.109 --> 00:49:36.410
  • Obviously we sing songs. his goodness is running after
  • 00:49:36.544 --> 00:49:38.045
  • His goodness is running after us.
  • 00:49:38.179 --> 00:49:38.446
  • Us. he's good all the time.
  • 00:49:38.579 --> 00:49:39.480
  • He's good all the time. how does joy bring us back to
  • 00:49:39.613 --> 00:49:41.515
  • How does joy bring us back to the heart of.
  • 00:49:41.649 --> 00:49:42.016
  • The heart of. god which.
  • 00:49:42.149 --> 00:49:42.550
  • God which. is for our good?
  • 00:49:42.683 --> 00:49:43.951
  • Is for our good? i think it's remembering his
  • 00:49:44.085 --> 00:49:47.188
  • I think it's remembering his character and recalling his
  • 00:49:47.321 --> 00:49:49.023
  • Character and recalling his faithfulness over the course of
  • 00:49:49.156 --> 00:49:50.658
  • Faithfulness over the course of time.
  • 00:49:50.791 --> 00:49:50.958
  • Time. one of the things that my
  • 00:49:51.592 --> 00:49:52.693
  • One of the things that my family loves to do is collect
  • 00:49:52.827 --> 00:49:54.528

  • Collection. yours is probably massive.
  • 00:49:58.399 --> 00:49:59.100
  • Yours is probably massive. it's huge.
  • 00:49:59.233 --> 00:49:59.700
  • It's huge. but i look at our collection
  • 00:50:00.034 --> 00:50:01.936
  • But i look at our collection and even though that brought us
  • 00:50:02.069 --> 00:50:03.370
  • And even though that brought us so much joy in the present and
  • 00:50:03.504 --> 00:50:04.972
  • So much joy in the present and helped us notice what was good
  • 00:50:05.106 --> 00:50:06.807
  • Helped us notice what was good .
  • 00:50:06.941 --> 00:50:07.041
  • . i see the collection and i see
  • 00:50:07.541 --> 00:50:09.844
  • I see the collection and i see the way that god has woven
  • 00:50:09.977 --> 00:50:11.078
  • The way that god has woven friendship into our family and
  • 00:50:11.212 --> 00:50:12.713
  • Friendship into our family and the ways he has been so
  • 00:50:12.847 --> 00:50:14.748
  • The ways he has been so faithful through some of the
  • 00:50:14.882 --> 00:50:15.950
  • Faithful through some of the hardest, most painful seasons
  • 00:50:16.083 --> 00:50:17.384
  • Hardest, most painful seasons of our life.
  • 00:50:17.518 --> 00:50:17.885
  • Of our life.
  • 00:50:17.518 --> 00:50:18.085
  • >> you're looking for his
  • 00:50:18.219 --> 00:50:19.019

  • 00:50:19.153 --> 00:50:20.254
  • Goodness in the midst of it all?
  • 00:50:20.387 --> 00:50:20.521
  • All? yes.

  • Yes. what do you want the take away
  • 00:50:20.988 --> 00:50:23.090

  • I think i would i would hope that readers don't see their
  • 00:50:27.094 --> 00:50:29.997
  • That readers don't see their joy on the far side of a dream
  • 00:50:30.131 --> 00:50:32.233
  • Joy on the far side of a dream realized or a goal achieved
  • 00:50:32.366 --> 00:50:33.467
  • Realized or a goal achieved that something that they can
  • 00:50:33.601 --> 00:50:35.469

  • 00:50:35.603 --> 00:50:36.704
  • Access when there's certain things has changed but
  • 00:50:36.837 --> 00:50:37.738
  • Things has changed but something that they can
  • 00:50:37.872 --> 00:50:39.140
  • Something that they can participate in now.
  • 00:50:39.273 --> 00:50:40.574
  • Participate in now. and god doesn't ask us to
  • 00:50:40.708 --> 00:50:42.810
  • And god doesn't ask us to pretend when he asks us to
  • 00:50:42.943 --> 00:50:45.646
  • Pretend when he asks us to choose joy, he just wants us to
  • 00:50:45.779 --> 00:50:47.882
  • Choose joy, he just wants us to lean into his power and
  • 00:50:48.015 --> 00:50:49.717
  • Lean into his power and presence even in our pain.
  • 00:50:49.850 --> 00:50:51.018
  • Presence even in our pain. and that's what choosing joy
  • 00:50:51.152 --> 00:50:52.253
  • And that's what choosing joy can look like.
  • 00:50:52.386 --> 00:50:52.853
  • Can look like. we can.
  • 00:50:52.987 --> 00:50:53.287

  • And i turned it in and i had a sense that i just wasn't done
  • 00:51:47.274 --> 00:51:49.143
  • Sense that i just wasn't done with learning about joy.
  • 00:51:49.276 --> 00:51:50.377
  • With learning about joy. and as i studied the scriptures
