  • Thought where this one what happened?
  • 00:19:00.225 --> 00:19:00.459
  • Happened? so we actually started almost
  • 00:19:00.592 --> 00:19:03.729
  • So we actually started almost 30 years ago i was working as a
  • 00:19:03.862 --> 00:19:04.596
  • 30 years ago i was working as a volunteer youth pastor in
  • 00:19:04.730 --> 00:19:07.833
  • Volunteer youth pastor in colorado springs.
  • 00:19:07.966 --> 00:19:08.333
  • Colorado springs. the 16 year old girl came and
  • 00:19:08.467 --> 00:19:09.101
  • The 16 year old girl came and sat next to me and from she
  • 00:19:09.234 --> 00:19:11.703
  • Sat next to me and from she held out her arms and i could
  • 00:19:11.837 --> 00:19:12.404
  • Held out her arms and i could see where she'd been cutting up
  • 00:19:12.537 --> 00:19:13.171
  • See where she'd been cutting up and down her arms and she was
  • 00:19:13.305 --> 00:19:15.440
  • And down her arms and she was sobbing.
  • 00:19:15.574 --> 00:19:15.774
  • Sobbing. >> so i turned to her and i
  • 00:19:15.907 --> 00:19:16.475
  • >> so i turned to her and i said you have to do that
  • 00:19:16.608 --> 00:19:18.510
  • Said you have to do that because i believe jesus did
  • 00:19:18.643 --> 00:19:19.177
  • Because i believe jesus did that for us 2000 years ago.
  • 00:19:19.311 --> 00:19:19.878
  • That for us 2000 years ago. so i thought you know what,
  • 00:19:21.847 --> 00:19:22.748
  • So i thought you know what, next wednesday night i want to
  • 00:19:22.881 --> 00:19:23.482
  • Next wednesday night i want to do an illustrated sermon, a
  • 00:19:23.615 --> 00:19:24.149
  • Do an illustrated sermon, a drama that would show two
  • 00:19:24.282 --> 00:19:26.451
  • Drama that would show two things the price that jesus pay
  • 00:19:26.585 --> 00:19:29.421
  • Things the price that jesus pay so that young people would know
  • 00:19:29.554 --> 00:19:30.288
  • So that young people would know no matter what you're going
  • 00:19:30.422 --> 00:19:30.989
  • No matter what you're going through, no matter how dark the
  • 00:19:31.123 --> 00:19:31.757
  • Through, no matter how dark the season, no matter what it is
  • 00:19:31.890 --> 00:19:33.525
  • Season, no matter what it is you're struggling with, jesus
  • 00:19:33.658 --> 00:19:34.226
  • You're struggling with, jesus understands because he's here
  • 00:19:34.359 --> 00:19:36.828
  • Understands because he's here and the number two i wanted to
  • 00:19:36.962 --> 00:19:37.596
  • And the number two i wanted to show the reality of what i call
  • 00:19:37.729 --> 00:19:38.397
  • Show the reality of what i call the spiritual for the destiny
  • 00:19:38.530 --> 00:19:41.266
  • The spiritual for the destiny identity and calling of young
  • 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:41.967
  • Identity and calling of young people and.
  • 00:19:42.100 --> 00:19:44.536
  • People and. then it grew over the next 25
  • 00:19:44.669 --> 00:19:45.404
  • Then it grew over the next 25 years to what it is today.
  • 00:19:45.537 --> 00:19:48.373
  • Years to what it is today. wow.
  • 00:19:48.507 --> 00:19:48.640
  • Wow. how many iterations have we
  • 00:19:48.774 --> 00:19:49.374
  • How many iterations have we had?
  • 00:19:49.508 --> 00:19:49.641
  • Had? do we do movie?
  • 00:19:49.775 --> 00:19:52.644
  • Do we do movie? how does this fall?
  • 00:19:52.778 --> 00:19:53.211
  • How does this fall? so so it began in the local
  • 00:19:53.345 --> 00:19:55.347
  • So so it began in the local church and then we began to get
  • 00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:56.214
  • Church and then we began to get calls from other churches
  • 00:19:56.348 --> 00:19:56.882
  • Calls from other churches around country saying would you
  • 00:19:57.015 --> 00:20:00.018
  • Around country saying would you bring this to our church?
  • 00:20:00.152 --> 00:20:00.685
  • Bring this to our church? so then we went through about
  • 00:20:00.819 --> 00:20:02.087
  • So then we went through about ten years of we became an
  • 00:20:02.220 --> 00:20:02.788
  • Ten years of we became an independent production company

  • Mega-churches around the country to do the production in
  • 00:20:07.993 --> 00:20:09.961
  • Country to do the production in different mega-churches and
  • 00:20:10.095 --> 00:20:10.629
  • Different mega-churches and then my wife and i had an idea
  • 00:20:10.762 --> 00:20:11.396
  • Then my wife and i had an idea what if we could film the thorn
  • 00:20:11.530 --> 00:20:13.899
  • What if we could film the thorn and put it in movie theaters?
  • 00:20:14.032 --> 00:20:14.633
  • And put it in movie theaters? so we partnered with fathom
  • 00:20:14.766 --> 00:20:17.736

  • Like i finally had answers with astrology things still weren't
  • 00:44:51.827 --> 00:44:54.463
  • Astrology things still weren't getting better.
  • 00:44:54.596 --> 00:44:54.930
  • Getting better. i had this podcast where i'm
  • 00:44:55.063 --> 00:44:55.631

  • 00:45:02.838 --> 00:45:09.111
  • I just wanted to die honestly. >> all i know is that i was
  • 00:45:09.244 --> 00:45:10.045

  • 00:45:10.179 --> 00:45:12.414
  • Just at the end of myself and nothing else had worked some
  • 00:45:12.548 --> 00:45:16.685
  • Nothing else had worked some part of my soul just knew.
  • 00:45:16.818 --> 00:45:17.419
  • Part of my soul just knew. cry out to and that's what i
  • 00:45:17.553 --> 00:45:20.389

  • 00:45:23.692 --> 00:45:27.362
  • And it was a moment of complete desperation because i didn't
  • 00:45:27.496 --> 00:45:28.063
  • Desperation because i didn't know what else to do or where
  • 00:45:28.197 --> 00:45:28.864

  • 00:45:28.997 --> 00:45:34.970
  • Else go and i don't know why i woke up the next after that
  • 00:45:35.103 --> 00:45:38.640
