The federal government. democrat it's probably are not
00:05:46.536 --> 00:05:49.639
Democrat it's probably are not responding as many americans.
00:05:49.773 --> 00:05:50.373
Responding as many americans. what do you think?
00:05:50.507 --> 00:05:53.143
What do you think? >> well, look, i thought
00:05:53.276 --> 00:05:53.810
>> well, look, i thought actually that was the key part
00:05:53.944 --> 00:05:54.544
Actually that was the key part of the whole speech last night.
00:05:54.678 --> 00:05:57.180
Of the whole speech last night. i know a lot of folks will talk
00:05:57.314 --> 00:05:58.181
I know a lot of folks will talk about different portions of it
00:05:58.315 --> 00:06:00.217
About different portions of it but let's think about it.
00:06:00.350 --> 00:06:00.851
But let's think about it. let's talk let's go to the
00:06:00.984 --> 00:06:01.551
Let's talk let's go to the heartland and talk about you
00:06:01.685 --> 00:06:04.287
Heartland and talk about you know, someone that just doesn't
00:06:04.421 --> 00:06:05.055
Know, someone that just doesn't care too much about politics
00:06:05.188 --> 00:06:05.755
Care too much about politics but is listening to the speech
00:06:05.889 --> 00:06:08.024
But is listening to the speech for a moment and then donald
00:06:08.158 --> 00:06:08.792
For a moment and then donald trump the president starts to
00:06:08.925 --> 00:06:09.526
Trump the president starts to rattle a list of these wild
00:06:09.659 --> 00:06:12.696
Rattle a list of these wild things that are being on the
00:06:12.829 --> 00:06:16.366
Things that are being on the taxpayers dime like $8 million
00:06:16.500 --> 00:06:17.133
Taxpayers dime like $8 million to make mice what you know it's
00:06:17.267 --> 00:06:20.871
To make mice what you know it's like that type of stuff.
00:06:21.004 --> 00:06:24.574
Like that type of stuff. and he just went on and on with
00:06:24.708 --> 00:06:25.442
And he just went on and on with it and i think that really
00:06:25.575 --> 00:06:26.276
It and i think that really bonded i believe with the
00:06:26.409 --> 00:06:28.745
Bonded i believe with the american people when you start
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:29.479
American people when you start to go over and over again and
00:06:29.613 --> 00:06:32.849
To go over and over again and explain these programs of like
00:06:32.983 --> 00:06:33.617
Explain these programs of like what are we doing here, i think
00:06:33.750 --> 00:06:35.685
What are we doing here, i think that plays to his brand of
00:06:35.819 --> 00:06:36.353
That plays to his brand of common sense and we're seeing
00:06:36.486 --> 00:06:37.053
Common sense and we're seeing polls this morning and or
00:06:37.187 --> 00:06:39.823
Polls this morning and or indeed that that the president
00:06:39.956 --> 00:06:40.557
Indeed that that the president was well-received last 6% it
00:06:40.690 --> 00:06:43.527
Was well-received last 6% it was a yougov poll cbs actually
00:06:43.660 --> 00:06:44.294
Was a yougov poll cbs actually a cbs yougov poll showing 76%
00:06:44.427 --> 00:06:46.730
A cbs yougov poll showing 76% of americans enjoyed the speech
00:06:46.863 --> 00:06:50.600
Of americans enjoyed the speech by president trump.
00:06:50.734 --> 00:06:51.134
By president trump. >> we expected protests.
00:06:51.268 --> 00:06:51.768
>> we expected protests. we saw them.
00:06:51.902 --> 00:06:54.638
We saw them. democrats tried to protest the
00:06:54.771 --> 00:06:55.372
Democrats tried to protest the president in different ways how
00:06:55.505 --> 00:06:58.542
President in different ways how do you think that's going to
00:06:58.675 --> 00:06:59.242
Do you think that's going to play with the american people?
00:06:59.376 --> 00:06:59.976
Play with the american people? >> it was night for democrats.
00:07:00.110 --> 00:07:02.012
>> it was night for democrats. you know they've tried
00:07:02.145 --> 00:07:02.612
You know they've tried everything the old kitchen sink
00:07:02.746 --> 00:07:05.715
Everything the old kitchen sink strategy has not worked as
00:07:05.849 --> 00:07:09.586
Strategy has not worked as trump pointed out by the way,
00:07:09.719 --> 00:07:10.420
Trump pointed out by the way, last night in his state of the
00:07:10.554 --> 00:07:11.388
Last night in his state of the union.
00:07:11.521 --> 00:07:13.623
Union. but look, they held signs you
00:07:13.757 --> 00:07:14.457
But look, they held signs you know, of course al green who
00:07:14.591 --> 00:07:17.527
Know, of course al green who went ahead and, you know,
00:07:17.661 --> 00:07:18.161
Went ahead and, you know, protested, shaking cane up in
00:07:18.295 --> 00:07:22.032
Protested, shaking cane up in the air and he had to be
00:07:22.165 --> 00:07:22.699
The air and he had to be escorted out which by the way
00:07:22.832 --> 00:07:23.400
Escorted out which by the way is unprecedented.
00:07:23.533 --> 00:07:23.900
Is unprecedented. that's happened before.
00:07:24.034 --> 00:07:25.869
That's happened before. some congressmembers walked out
00:07:26.002 --> 00:07:28.705
Some congressmembers walked out ,for example, never even
00:07:28.838 --> 00:07:29.372
,for example, never even attended the state of the
00:07:29.506 --> 00:07:30.006
Attended the state of the union.
00:07:30.140 --> 00:07:30.307
Union. so tried all different tactics.
00:07:30.440 --> 00:07:33.209
So tried all different tactics. but the problem is is that
00:07:33.343 --> 00:07:36.846
But the problem is is that there's a fundamental
00:07:36.980 --> 00:07:37.414
There's a fundamental disconnect between what the
00:07:37.547 --> 00:07:38.081
Disconnect between what the democrats doing and what the
00:07:38.214 --> 00:07:40.183
Democrats doing and what the american people want and
00:07:40.317 --> 00:07:43.720
American people want and specifically you know, with doj
00:07:43.853 --> 00:07:46.790
Specifically you know, with doj they're the 13 year old brain
00:07:46.923 --> 00:07:47.624
They're the 13 year old brain cancer child.
00:07:47.757 --> 00:07:51.094
Cancer child. look, democrats sat on their
00:07:51.227 --> 00:07:51.795
Look, democrats sat on their hands.
00:07:51.928 --> 00:07:52.095
Hands. they didn't even applaud him.
00:07:52.228 --> 00:08:02.205
They didn't even applaud him. lincoln riley's mother and
00:08:02.339 --> 00:08:02.872
Lincoln riley's mother and daughter were the chamber last
00:08:03.006 --> 00:08:03.607
Daughter were the chamber last night.
00:08:03.740 --> 00:08:03.907
Night. they sat on their hands, didn't

They sat on their hands, didn't applaud him.
00:08:04.808 --> 00:08:05.108
Applaud him. payton mcnabb a traumatic brain
00:08:05.241 --> 00:08:05.842
Payton mcnabb a traumatic brain injury as as it relates to an
00:08:05.976 --> 00:08:06.610
Injury as as it relates to an injury she had playing against
00:08:06.743 --> 00:08:07.310
Injury she had playing against a man in women's sports.
00:08:07.444 --> 00:08:10.380
A man in women's sports. democrats just sat on their
00:08:10.513 --> 00:08:11.081
Democrats just sat on their hands.
00:08:11.214 --> 00:08:11.381
Hands. well, that's a bad look.
00:08:11.514 --> 00:08:14.551
Well, that's a bad look. >> the democrats it was notable
00:08:14.684 --> 00:08:15.318
>> the democrats it was notable the moments they did remain
00:08:15.452 --> 00:08:16.019
The moments they did remain seated and were quiet.
00:08:16.152 --> 00:08:17.687
Seated and were quiet. anything surprise you in the
00:08:17.821 --> 00:08:18.388
Anything surprise you in the speech?
00:08:18.521 --> 00:08:18.722
Speech? well, couple of things he did
00:08:18.855 --> 00:08:21.725
Well, couple of things he did say on tariffs that there might
00:08:21.858 --> 00:08:22.492
Say on tariffs that there might be a little disturbance on
00:08:22.626 --> 00:08:25.128
Be a little disturbance on tariffs really?
00:08:25.261 --> 00:08:25.595
Tariffs really? well, maybe more than a little
00:08:25.729 --> 00:08:26.363
Well, maybe more than a little disturbance that was you.
00:08:26.496 --> 00:08:29.099
Disturbance that was you. trump rarely acknowledges some
00:08:29.232 --> 00:08:29.866
Trump rarely acknowledges some potential problems down the i
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:33.103
Potential problems down the i mean everything's just you
00:08:33.236 --> 00:08:33.770
Mean everything's just you know, sunny and a lot of roses
00:08:33.903 --> 00:08:36.306
Know, sunny and a lot of roses and everything's going to be
00:08:36.439 --> 00:08:37.040
And everything's going to be just fine.
00:08:37.173 --> 00:08:37.407
Just fine. but he did say there could be a
00:08:37.540 --> 00:08:38.174
But he did say there could be a little disturbance clearly
00:08:38.308 --> 00:08:40.110
Little disturbance clearly talking about the stock market
00:08:40.243 --> 00:08:40.844
Talking about the stock market and potentially prices up if
00:08:40.977 --> 00:08:44.447
And potentially prices up if the little disturbance becomes
00:08:44.581 --> 00:08:45.181
The little disturbance becomes a big disturbance.
00:08:45.315 --> 00:08:45.715
A big disturbance. obviously that's a big problem
00:08:45.849 --> 00:08:47.684
Obviously that's a big problem for this white house.
00:08:47.817 --> 00:08:48.284
For this white house. so i thought that was of note
00:08:48.418 --> 00:08:49.019
So i thought that was of note also the greenland where he
00:08:49.152 --> 00:08:51.421
Also the greenland where he said look, we're going to get
00:08:51.554 --> 00:08:52.255
Said look, we're going to get greenland one way or another.
00:08:52.389 --> 00:08:54.557
Greenland one way or another. okay.
00:08:54.691 --> 00:08:54.858
Okay. could you maybe expand to
00:08:54.991 --> 00:08:58.395
Could you maybe expand to one way or another aspect?
00:08:58.528 --> 00:08:59.062
One way or another aspect? didn't get much details but
00:08:59.195 --> 00:09:02.298
Didn't get much details but stood out to me.
00:09:02.432 --> 00:09:02.832
Stood out to me. >> oh, it certainly didn't get
00:09:02.966 --> 00:09:03.633
>> oh, it certainly didn't get much details.
00:09:03.767 --> 00:09:04.067
Much details. i was surprised that was kind
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:04.801
I was surprised that was kind of left hanging i was surprised
00:09:04.934 --> 00:09:06.703
Of left hanging i was surprised he had greenland before the
00:09:06.836 --> 00:09:07.370
He had greenland before the ukraine actually.
00:09:07.504 --> 00:09:07.871
Ukraine actually. let's talk about the ukraine in
00:09:08.004 --> 00:09:08.638
Let's talk about the ukraine in our final moment here.
00:09:08.772 --> 00:09:10.473
Our final moment here. ukraine's president zelensky
00:09:10.607 --> 00:09:11.174
Ukraine's president zelensky trying to repair the
00:09:11.307 --> 00:09:11.741
Trying to repair the relationship that oval office
00:09:11.875 --> 00:09:14.544
Relationship that oval office blow up.
00:09:14.678 --> 00:09:14.878
Blow up. what's trump's strategy forward
00:09:15.011 --> 00:09:17.280
What's trump's strategy forward in negotiations?
00:09:17.414 --> 00:09:17.747
In negotiations? >> well, look, i mean he got
00:09:17.881 --> 00:09:21.217
>> well, look, i mean he got zelensky to do what trump
00:09:21.351 --> 00:09:21.885
Zelensky to do what trump wanted him to do, which is dare
00:09:22.018 --> 00:09:24.521
Wanted him to do, which is dare i say come back to the table
00:09:24.654 --> 00:09:25.288
I say come back to the table and grovel a bit.
00:09:25.422 --> 00:09:25.822
And grovel a bit. i mean we saw what with that
00:09:25.955 --> 00:09:28.825
I mean we saw what with that statement saying yeah, that
00:09:28.958 --> 00:09:29.526
Statement saying yeah, that meeting didn't go too well i'd
00:09:29.659 --> 00:09:32.529
Meeting didn't go too well i'd love to sign a minerals deal
00:09:32.662 --> 00:09:33.263
Love to sign a minerals deal and basically you're the best
00:09:33.396 --> 00:09:35.932
And basically you're the best president since sliced bread.
00:09:36.066 --> 00:09:36.666
President since sliced bread. he didn't say that but you know
00:09:36.800 --> 00:09:37.434
He didn't say that but you know that was basically the grovel
00:09:37.567 --> 00:09:39.469
That was basically the grovel tone by zelensky.
00:09:39.602 --> 00:09:39.969
Tone by zelensky. so trump got him to the
00:09:40.103 --> 00:09:43.673
So trump got him to the negotiating table to look at
00:09:43.807 --> 00:09:44.407
Negotiating table to look at peace.
00:09:44.541 --> 00:09:44.708
Peace. it's not going to be a good for
00:09:44.841 --> 00:09:47.444
It's not going to be a good for ukraine.
00:09:47.577 --> 00:09:47.777
Ukraine. that's the truth of the matter.
00:09:47.911 --> 00:09:48.511
That's the truth of the matter. and also remember when zelensky
00:09:48.645 --> 00:09:50.647
And also remember when zelensky walked away and were was
00:09:50.780 --> 00:09:54.417
Walked away and were was escorted out of the white house
00:09:54.551 --> 00:09:55.251
Escorted out of the white house last week remember europe then
00:09:55.385 --> 00:09:59.322
Last week remember europe then came to the table and said you
00:09:59.456 --> 00:10:00.056
Came to the table and said you know what?
00:10:00.190 --> 00:10:00.423
Know what? >> i'll tell you what we'll do
00:10:00.557 --> 00:10:01.191
>> i'll tell you what we'll do an hundred billion dollars
00:10:01.324 --> 00:10:02.492
An hundred billion dollars euros is 900 billion u.s. money
00:10:02.625 --> 00:10:04.928
Euros is 900 billion u.s. money and that's exactly another that
00:10:05.061 --> 00:10:08.698
And that's exactly another that trump wants which is europe
00:10:08.832 --> 00:10:09.399
Trump wants which is europe doing more of their fair share.
00:10:09.532 --> 00:10:10.200
Doing more of their fair share. so so trump is getting
00:10:10.333 --> 00:10:12.902
So so trump is getting everything in the art of the
00:10:13.036 --> 00:10:13.603
Everything in the art of the deal and zelensky does have he
00:10:13.737 --> 00:10:15.772
Deal and zelensky does have he doesn't have any cards to play.
00:10:15.905 --> 00:10:16.539
Doesn't have any cards to play. he just doesn't and trump knows
00:10:16.673 --> 00:10:17.407
He just doesn't and trump knows that and that's where we're at.
00:10:17.540 --> 00:10:20.076
That and that's where we're at. >> all right, david, appreciate

What an incredible testimony. but i'm reminded of the
00:27:42.326 --> 00:27:42.927
But i'm reminded of the scripture that i actually saw
00:27:43.060 --> 00:27:43.661
Scripture that i actually saw in my devotional this morning
00:27:43.794 --> 00:27:45.429
In my devotional this morning and it's the scripture where
00:27:45.563 --> 00:27:46.130
And it's the scripture where it's talking about god all
00:27:46.263 --> 00:27:49.333
It's talking about god all things out for good.
00:27:49.467 --> 00:27:49.867
Things out for good. and in my devotional i was
00:27:50.001 --> 00:27:53.871
And in my devotional i was saying that even our problems
00:27:54.005 --> 00:27:54.605
Saying that even our problems even the the things don't want
00:27:54.739 --> 00:27:57.475
Even the the things don't want to be walking through and going
00:27:57.608 --> 00:27:58.209
To be walking through and going through the areas the difficult
00:27:58.342 --> 00:28:01.412
Through the areas the difficult places, the pain our bodies,
00:28:01.545 --> 00:28:05.483
Places, the pain our bodies, even those problems in those
00:28:05.616 --> 00:28:06.183
Even those problems in those situations god can work it and
00:28:06.317 --> 00:28:09.653
Situations god can work it and is working it all out for our
00:28:09.787 --> 00:28:12.556

00:28:12.690 --> 00:28:16.727
Good because he loves and he is a good heavenly father.
00:28:16.861 --> 00:28:17.361
A good heavenly father. but but what my devotional said
00:28:17.495 --> 00:28:20.931
But but what my devotional said was basically we have to trust
00:28:21.065 --> 00:28:21.699

00:28:21.832 --> 00:28:21.966
Him. we have to trust him and
00:28:24.101 --> 00:28:25.002
We have to trust him and believe him at his word that
00:28:25.136 --> 00:28:28.472
Believe him at his word that yes, even though my pain and
00:28:28.606 --> 00:28:29.206
Yes, even though my pain and suffering is but moment god is
00:28:29.340 --> 00:28:31.675
Suffering is but moment god is working it out for good.

00:44:05.906 --> 00:44:07.942
Satisfaction that mirrors winning?
00:44:08.075 --> 00:44:08.275
Winning? ultimately nothing can truly

00:44:38.139 --> 00:44:38.873
I know that i'm a child of god because of where father he
00:44:39.006 --> 00:44:41.442
Because of where father he gives us that drive and that
00:44:41.575 --> 00:44:42.176

00:44:50.017 --> 00:44:52.686
Bridging with others in being present with them
00:44:52.820 --> 00:44:56.157
Present with them unconditionally in both their
00:44:56.290 --> 00:44:56.891
Unconditionally in both their struggle and their.
00:44:57.024 --> 00:45:00.261
Struggle and their. their success.
00:45:00.394 --> 00:45:00.728
Their success. just being intentional with
00:45:00.861 --> 00:45:01.395
Just being intentional with others just the way business
00:45:01.529 --> 00:45:03.464
Others just the way business is.
00:45:03.597 --> 00:45:03.731
Is. guys are in and out.
00:45:03.864 --> 00:45:04.298
Guys are in and out. there's new teams every year
00:45:04.431 --> 00:45:04.999
There's new teams every year and so some cases you only have
00:45:05.132 --> 00:45:07.835
And so some cases you only have a six month window with some
00:45:07.968 --> 00:45:08.702
A six month window with some guys to be able to build a
00:45:08.836 --> 00:45:12.273
Guys to be able to build a relationship with them, share
00:45:12.406 --> 00:45:12.973
Relationship with them, share christ with them.
00:45:13.107 --> 00:45:13.474
Christ with them. so i think just being
00:45:13.607 --> 00:45:15.576
So i think just being intentional with the time that
00:45:15.709 --> 00:45:16.343
Intentional with the time that you have especially your locker
00:45:16.477 --> 00:45:17.144
You have especially your locker mates, the ones to listen to
00:45:17.278 --> 00:45:20.314
Mates, the ones to listen to your right i think god places
00:45:20.447 --> 00:45:21.015
Your right i think god places those people beside us for a
00:45:21.148 --> 00:45:21.749
Those people beside us for a reason and the relationships is
00:45:21.882 --> 00:45:23.784
Reason and the relationships is huge and especially to to be a
00:45:23.918 --> 00:45:24.552
Huge and especially to to be a great team you got to be tight
00:45:24.685 --> 00:45:26.187
Great team you got to be tight in the locker cubicle on your
00:45:26.320 --> 00:45:27.054
In the locker cubicle on your left in your right.
00:45:27.188 --> 00:45:27.621

Absolutely. and single day and just knowing
00:45:31.525 --> 00:45:35.496
And single day and just knowing that you have a chance to
00:45:35.629 --> 00:45:36.297
That you have a chance to impact and not just in a
00:45:36.430 --> 00:45:39.166
Impact and not just in a football way and help them in
00:45:39.300 --> 00:45:39.900
Football way and help them in that way but also from a
00:45:40.034 --> 00:45:43.003
That way but also from a spiritual way as well.
00:45:43.137 --> 00:45:43.604
Spiritual way as well. god has made us to to be in a
00:45:43.737 --> 00:45:47.141
God has made us to to be in a relationship we're not you
00:45:47.274 --> 00:45:47.775
Relationship we're not you know, the devil thrives in
00:45:47.908 --> 00:45:48.442
Know, the devil thrives in isolation.
00:45:48.576 --> 00:45:50.945
Isolation. so i think god going before us
00:45:51.078 --> 00:45:51.812
So i think god going before us and knowing that he's already
00:45:51.946 --> 00:45:52.546
And knowing that he's already there.
00:45:52.680 --> 00:45:54.582
There. what is it about being a
00:45:54.715 --> 00:45:55.349
What is it about being a professional football player
00:45:55.482 --> 00:45:57.384
Professional football player that has uncommonly rushed you
00:45:57.518 --> 00:45:58.319
That has uncommonly rushed you forward for both the need and
00:45:58.452 --> 00:46:02.089
Forward for both the need and desire for divine?
00:46:02.223 --> 00:46:05.759

Be a blessing to others and not for our own personal gain
00:46:11.632 --> 00:46:14.101
For our own personal gain something that i always try to
00:46:14.235 --> 00:46:14.868
Something that i always try to keep in mind feel like god is
00:46:15.002 --> 00:46:17.204
Keep in mind feel like god is revealing to me on day in and
00:46:17.338 --> 00:46:17.972
Revealing to me on day in and day out.
00:46:18.105 --> 00:46:18.339
Day out. that's the reason you're here
00:46:18.472 --> 00:46:19.073
That's the reason you're here is to impact souls for the

I'm not perfect. i mess up daily.
00:46:32.953 --> 00:46:33.354
I mess up daily. but like i said, thank god that
00:46:33.487 --> 00:46:35.789
But like i said, thank god that i'm not where i was.
00:46:35.923 --> 00:46:36.457
I'm not where i was. he continues to work in me and
00:46:36.590 --> 00:46:37.491
He continues to work in me and refine me and so but i just
00:46:37.625 --> 00:46:40.694
Refine me and so but i just know if it wasn't for jesus i
00:46:40.828 --> 00:46:41.428

Step for me. i love how we always meet after

I love how we always meet after the game and pray in the 50
00:46:48.936 --> 00:46:51.872
The game and pray in the 50 yard line we get the
00:46:52.006 --> 00:46:52.439
Yard line we get the opportunity to go out to the
00:46:52.573 --> 00:46:53.173
Opportunity to go out to the field.
00:46:53.307 --> 00:46:53.474
Field. that's the guys that battled
00:46:53.607 --> 00:46:55.342
That's the guys that battled against and just went to war
00:46:55.476 --> 00:46:56.076
Against and just went to war against the good together and
00:46:56.210 --> 00:46:58.479
Against the good together and deflect that glory back to god.
00:46:58.612 --> 00:46:59.280
Deflect that glory back to god. what does that look like?
00:47:01.782 --> 00:47:02.483
What does that look like? >> being bold and our
00:47:02.616 --> 00:47:06.987
>> being bold and our in-your-face is just so
00:47:07.121 --> 00:47:07.621
In-your-face is just so important.
00:47:07.755 --> 00:47:07.988
Important. on my prayer versus romans 116

You know for i want to send the gospel knowing that especially
00:47:10.891 --> 00:47:12.493
Gospel knowing that especially in this business in this
00:47:12.626 --> 00:47:13.160
In this business in this platform that it's not a
00:47:13.294 --> 00:47:13.794
Platform that it's not a popular thing to do to follow
00:47:13.927 --> 00:47:16.030
Popular thing to do to follow christ.
00:47:16.163 --> 00:47:16.363
Christ. but you know, we know that
00:47:16.497 --> 00:47:17.064
But you know, we know that that's the best thing to do.
00:47:17.197 --> 00:47:20.801
That's the best thing to do. it's the best way it's the best
00:47:20.934 --> 00:47:21.769
It's the best way it's the best road through jesus that's just
00:47:21.902 --> 00:47:24.405
Road through jesus that's just the most that we have to have
00:47:24.538 --> 00:47:25.272
The most that we have to have is just to be unashamed
00:47:25.406 --> 00:47:25.906
Is just to be unashamed especially when trials and
00:47:26.040 --> 00:47:26.573
Especially when trials and tribulations come our way.
00:47:26.707 --> 00:47:28.575
Tribulations come our way. >> just be unashamed.
00:47:28.709 --> 00:47:31.245
>> just be unashamed. >> that's alex highsmith.
00:47:31.378 --> 00:47:31.912
>> that's alex highsmith. i mean that guy.
00:47:32.046 --> 00:47:35.449

Spiritual insights. yeah, stand out guy.

Yeah, stand out guy. i actually wrote down what he
00:47:39.353 --> 00:47:39.987
I actually wrote down what he said.
00:47:40.120 --> 00:47:40.287
Said. he said football a great game
00:47:40.421 --> 00:47:43.457
He said football a great game but a terrible god and i think
00:47:43.590 --> 00:47:44.425
But a terrible god and i think that's reminder for all of us
00:47:44.558 --> 00:47:46.760
That's reminder for all of us and you know, whatever we're
00:47:46.894 --> 00:47:47.461
And you know, whatever we're doing, let's not make that an
00:47:47.594 --> 00:47:50.698
Doing, let's not make that an idol in our lives.
00:47:50.831 --> 00:47:51.231
Idol in our lives. let's not make that our god
00:47:51.365 --> 00:47:52.032
Let's not make that our god obviously the lord led us to
00:47:52.166 --> 00:47:55.002
Obviously the lord led us to these opportunities.
00:47:55.135 --> 00:47:55.569
These opportunities. >> we got to give him the glory
00:47:55.703 --> 00:47:57.304
>> we got to give him the glory and he talked about a lot of
00:47:57.438 --> 00:47:58.172
And he talked about a lot of different things.
00:47:58.305 --> 00:47:58.672
Different things. >> but he's the devil thrives
00:47:58.806 --> 00:47:59.373
>> but he's the devil thrives in isolation that's a great
00:47:59.506 --> 00:48:02.476
In isolation that's a great reminder like when we're alone
00:48:02.609 --> 00:48:05.312
Reminder like when we're alone and looking or comparing and
00:48:05.446 --> 00:48:06.013
And looking or comparing and just sometimes like we make
00:48:06.146 --> 00:48:06.714
Just sometimes like we make ourselves vulnerable to our
00:48:06.847 --> 00:48:10.551
Ourselves vulnerable to our enemy who wants to pounce and
00:48:10.684 --> 00:48:11.285
Enemy who wants to pounce and destroy and kill and steal it's
00:48:11.418 --> 00:48:13.387
Destroy and kill and steal it's great word from alex.
00:48:13.520 --> 00:48:13.987

We've got your email questions and this is mitchell.
00:50:07.501 --> 00:50:07.968
And this is mitchell. he wrote in and said can god
00:50:08.101 --> 00:50:11.138
He wrote in and said can god remove sadness from your life?
00:50:11.271 --> 00:50:11.872
Remove sadness from your life? >> think the holy spirit the
00:50:12.005 --> 00:50:15.576
>> think the holy spirit the parakeet greek for someone who
00:50:15.709 --> 00:50:19.146
Parakeet greek for someone who comes along side and comforts.
00:50:19.279 --> 00:50:19.880
Comes along side and comforts. that's the biggest way i think
00:50:22.149 --> 00:50:22.983
That's the biggest way i think the holy spirit of god, right?
00:50:23.116 --> 00:50:23.784
The holy spirit of god, right? there's a psalm in which the
00:50:23.917 --> 00:50:26.720
There's a psalm in which the song was says i cried out to
00:50:26.854 --> 00:50:27.654
Song was says i cried out to god but my soul refused to be
00:50:27.788 --> 00:50:30.724
God but my soul refused to be comforted.
00:50:30.858 --> 00:50:33.360
Comforted. and i think there's two
00:50:33.494 --> 00:50:34.027
And i think there's two dynamics to that actually.
00:50:34.161 --> 00:50:34.695
Dynamics to that actually. one is that trauma and the pain
00:50:36.129 --> 00:50:36.864
One is that trauma and the pain is so intense that we just have
00:50:36.997 --> 00:50:37.664
Is so intense that we just have trouble moving forward.
00:50:37.798 --> 00:50:40.267
Trouble moving forward. >> sometimes we have a
00:50:40.400 --> 00:50:40.901
>> sometimes we have a resistance to wanting peace and
00:50:41.034 --> 00:50:44.171
Resistance to wanting peace and right.
00:50:44.304 --> 00:50:44.605
Right. i'm refusing to overlook this
00:50:44.738 --> 00:50:45.372
I'm refusing to overlook this offense or.
00:50:45.506 --> 00:50:48.375
Offense or. just look out for am i somewhat
