Your Move with Andy Stanley | Andy Stanley - Paper Walls (Part 4) | September 27, 2025

...
00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:00.351
Andy stanley: hey everybody, welcome to "your move" where we
00:00:00.885 --> 00:00:02.153
Help you make better decisions and live with fewer regrets.
00:00:02.287 --> 00:00:04.355
I'm andy stanley and i'll be your guide.
00:00:04.489 --> 00:00:06.357
So there are two kinds of people in the world.
00:00:06.458 --> 00:00:08.526
People who make excuses and people who make a difference.
00:00:08.660 --> 00:00:12.363
Which one are you and which one do you wanna be?
00:00:12.464 --> 00:00:16.101
That's what i thought.
00:00:16.234 --> 00:00:17.435
Stick around and we'll talk about it right here on
00:00:17.569 --> 00:00:18.803
"your move."

Andy: chances are at some point along the way you have
00:00:46.364 --> 00:00:49.167
Heard it said that there are two kinds of people in
00:00:49.167 --> 00:00:53.138
The world, right?
00:00:53.138 --> 00:00:54.472
In fact, you've heard this so many times, that's the only part
00:00:54.472 --> 00:00:57.242
Of it that you remember, right?
00:00:57.242 --> 00:00:58.910
You can't even remember what comes after this.
00:00:58.910 --> 00:01:00.845
This is what originally attributed to mark twain.
00:01:00.845 --> 00:01:03.114
I assume he's the first person who popularized.
00:01:03.114 --> 00:01:05.116
There are two kinds of people in the world and whatever follows
00:01:05.116 --> 00:01:08.253
This is generally some sort of oversimplification.
00:01:08.253 --> 00:01:11.623
But that's okay because simple things are sticky things and
00:01:11.623 --> 00:01:14.559
Sometimes it's better to oversimplify something to
00:01:14.559 --> 00:01:16.494
Remember it than to make it complicated and, you know, tease
00:01:16.494 --> 00:01:18.763
It all out, but you can't remember anything that was said.
00:01:18.763 --> 00:01:20.732
So there are two kinds of people in the world.
00:01:20.732 --> 00:01:23.868
People who make a difference and people who make what?
00:01:23.868 --> 00:01:28.006
Excuses.
00:01:28.006 --> 00:01:29.374
Yeah, there are people who make a difference.
00:01:29.374 --> 00:01:30.708
There are people who make excuses.
00:01:30.708 --> 00:01:32.076
And so the question is which kind of person do you wanna be?
00:01:32.076 --> 00:01:35.980
The kind of person that makes the world better, the kind of
00:01:35.980 --> 00:01:39.884
Person that makes the people around them better?
00:01:39.884 --> 00:01:42.954
Or do you want to be somebody who lives behind what we've
00:01:42.954 --> 00:01:46.024
Called paper walls.
00:01:46.024 --> 00:01:49.794
Behind the excuses that we disguise as reasons, but at the
00:01:49.794 --> 00:01:54.199
End of the day, they're just excuses.
00:01:54.199 --> 00:01:57.569
Today we're wrapping up our series if you haven't been with
00:01:57.569 --> 00:01:59.671
Us, "paper walls: moving beyond the excuses that hold you back."
00:01:59.671 --> 00:02:03.775
We've said throughout the series there are things that are worth
00:02:03.775 --> 00:02:05.743
Carrying season to season, year to year, good friends, good
00:02:05.743 --> 00:02:09.581
Habits, and there are things that need to be left behind once
00:02:09.581 --> 00:02:13.184
And for all, and namely we're talking about excuses.
00:02:13.184 --> 00:02:16.287
That whatever our excuses are, they need to be abandoned once
00:02:16.287 --> 00:02:19.324
And for all.
00:02:19.324 --> 00:02:20.692
We said throughout the series that excuses are a lot like
00:02:20.692 --> 00:02:23.094
Paper walls that from a distance it looks real, it looks like an
00:02:23.094 --> 00:02:26.698
Actual obstacle, it looks like there's no way through and we
00:02:26.698 --> 00:02:30.535
Present it that way to ourselves and we present it that way to
00:02:30.535 --> 00:02:33.938
Other people.
00:02:33.938 --> 00:02:35.306
And then before we know it, our excuses, our excuses become our
00:02:35.306 --> 00:02:39.944
Becauses, our becauses.
00:02:39.944 --> 00:02:41.713
Becauses that we retreat to when certain topics come up, certain
00:02:41.713 --> 00:02:45.183
People come up, certain challenges come up.
00:02:45.183 --> 00:02:48.019
Becauses that we hide behind and defend ourselves with.
00:02:48.019 --> 00:02:51.189
Well, why don't you? well, because.
00:02:51.189 --> 00:02:54.025
Well, why haven't you? because.
00:02:54.025 --> 00:02:56.728
Why do you always? because.
00:02:56.728 --> 00:02:58.062
Why do you act that way? because.
00:02:58.062 --> 00:02:59.397
Why don't you just give that up? because.
00:02:59.397 --> 00:03:01.633
Why don't you just talk to her?
00:03:01.633 --> 00:03:03.034
Why don't you just talk to him? because.
00:03:03.034 --> 00:03:04.602
Why don't you just forgive them? because.
00:03:04.602 --> 00:03:06.537
Why don't you call your dad? because.
00:03:06.537 --> 00:03:08.206
Why don't you call your mom? because.
00:03:08.206 --> 00:03:09.540
Why don't you reach out?
00:03:09.540 --> 00:03:10.875
Why why? because, because, because.
00:03:10.875 --> 00:03:12.443
And often, as we said, because isn't really the cause.
00:03:12.443 --> 00:03:17.248
Our because is an excuse masquerading as a cause.
00:03:17.248 --> 00:03:22.754
So in this series throughout we've asked this question and
00:03:22.754 --> 00:03:25.089
I've tried to be gentle.
00:03:25.089 --> 00:03:26.524
So i've, you know, i've posed the question in somewhat of
00:03:26.524 --> 00:03:29.327
A gentle way.
00:03:29.327 --> 00:03:30.662
Is it possible? is it possible?
00:03:30.662 --> 00:03:33.631
Would you be open to considering?
00:03:33.631 --> 00:03:35.600
Is it possible that you're missing out because you have
00:03:35.600 --> 00:03:39.637
Walled yourself in?
00:03:39.637 --> 00:03:42.206
Is it possible, is it possible that there is something on the
00:03:42.206 --> 00:03:45.576
Other side of your excuses that is good?
00:03:45.576 --> 00:03:48.379
Is there something on the other side of your excuses that you
00:03:48.379 --> 00:03:51.015
Would benefit from?
00:03:51.015 --> 00:03:52.350
Is there something on the other side of your excuses that would
00:03:52.350 --> 00:03:54.018
Allow you to make the people around you better and make the
00:03:54.018 --> 00:03:56.154
World better?
00:03:56.154 --> 00:03:57.522
Now the truth is, and we could spend a lot of time on
00:03:57.522 --> 00:03:59.257
This, but we won't.
00:03:59.257 --> 00:04:00.625
Most of our paper walls or most of our excuses are fear based.
00:04:00.625 --> 00:04:04.862
In my case, i almost didn't go to my graduate, the graduate
00:04:04.862 --> 00:04:08.299
School that i really wanted to go to because i was afraid.
00:04:08.299 --> 00:04:11.569
I was just afraid.
00:04:11.569 --> 00:04:13.204
And of course, when people would ask and i would talk about it
00:04:13.204 --> 00:04:15.807
With my family, i didn't say i'm afraid, i had other reasons.
00:04:15.807 --> 00:04:18.710
I had several, but, you know, paper walls as to why i wasn't
00:04:18.710 --> 00:04:21.879
Going to attend that particular graduate school, but i would
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:25.883
Never say it was because i was afraid because, you know, fear
00:04:25.883 --> 00:04:28.553
Wasn't a reason you get fear of failure, isn't it true?
00:04:28.553 --> 00:04:30.855
Fear of failure is very difficult to admit.
00:04:30.855 --> 00:04:32.924
And the most difficult person it is to admit to is to ourselves.
00:04:32.924 --> 00:04:37.929
But i was actually afraid of the academic rigor of that
00:04:37.929 --> 00:04:41.132
Particular school.
00:04:41.132 --> 00:04:42.500
I knew i could get in, but i may never get out.
00:04:42.500 --> 00:04:45.002
It would be my "hotel california."
00:04:45.002 --> 00:04:46.838
I would be there forever trying to make my way out because it
00:04:46.838 --> 00:04:49.907
Was just gonna be too difficult.
00:04:49.907 --> 00:04:51.576
So i just threw it out of my mind.
00:04:51.576 --> 00:04:53.244
I'm not even gonna go there.
00:04:53.244 --> 00:04:54.579
I didn't even fill out the app--i filled out half the
00:04:54.579 --> 00:04:56.881
Application, then just quit and decided to go to another school.
00:04:56.881 --> 00:04:59.183
And i was at home.
00:04:59.183 --> 00:05:00.551
I was living in my parents' basement.
00:05:00.551 --> 00:05:01.886
I had just finished georgia state university, getting ready
00:05:01.886 --> 00:05:03.521
For grad school.
00:05:03.521 --> 00:05:04.856
And my dad was out of town and he called me.
00:05:04.856 --> 00:05:06.724
He literally called me on the phone.
00:05:06.724 --> 00:05:08.059
I was gonna say he called me on it.
00:05:08.059 --> 00:05:09.427
He did call me on it.
00:05:09.427 --> 00:05:10.762
He called me on the phone.
00:05:10.762 --> 00:05:12.130
And he knew, he knew that the reasons i had been giving him
00:05:12.130 --> 00:05:15.733
And he had heard me give other people, they weren't
00:05:15.733 --> 00:05:18.236
Really reasons.
00:05:18.236 --> 00:05:19.604
They were excuses.
00:05:19.604 --> 00:05:21.072
And he decided, you know what?
00:05:21.072 --> 00:05:22.407
I'm gonna interfere and he called me and he challenged me.
00:05:22.407 --> 00:05:25.076
And he didn't accuse me of being afraid, but you know what
00:05:25.076 --> 00:05:28.312
He did?
00:05:28.312 --> 00:05:29.647
He was so wise.
00:05:29.647 --> 00:05:31.015
He led me right up to the paper wall and then he just left
00:05:31.015 --> 00:05:33.050
Me there.
00:05:33.050 --> 00:05:34.419
And he ended the phone call and no lie, i was so angry.
00:05:34.419 --> 00:05:38.756
I was so angry at him because i already had a roommate, i'd
00:05:38.756 --> 00:05:42.794
Already sent in my deposit for the other school.
00:05:42.794 --> 00:05:44.829
I had already had a dorm.
00:05:44.829 --> 00:05:46.197
I had everything worked out and now he's interfering with my
00:05:46.197 --> 00:05:49.033
Plan because he knew i was making an excuse.
00:05:49.033 --> 00:05:54.305
I was afraid, a failure.
00:05:54.305 --> 00:05:59.110
And i changed my mind at the last minute and i went to the
00:05:59.110 --> 00:06:01.345
School of my choice and i'm so extraordinarily, extraordinarily
00:06:01.345 --> 00:06:04.515
Grateful that i did.
00:06:04.515 --> 00:06:06.784
Now our fear comes from several things.
00:06:06.784 --> 00:06:09.454
You know, oftentimes our fear that sort of is the seed bed for
00:06:09.454 --> 00:06:13.024
Our excuses, it comes from our past experience.
00:06:13.024 --> 00:06:15.726
There's something we experienced in the past and we don't ever
00:06:15.726 --> 00:06:18.029
Wanna experience that again.
00:06:18.029 --> 00:06:19.397
It may not be the exact same circumstances, but it creates
00:06:19.397 --> 00:06:21.466
That same sense of fear.
00:06:21.466 --> 00:06:23.034
Fear of abandonment or fear of failure or fear of just being
00:06:23.034 --> 00:06:26.971
Embarrassed or ashamed.
00:06:26.971 --> 00:06:28.806
But most of the time, i think we don't even know where it
00:06:28.806 --> 00:06:31.042
Comes from.
00:06:31.042 --> 00:06:32.410
We don't know, but there's something that just triggers, it
00:06:32.410 --> 00:06:35.179
Just automatically triggers our because narrative and we just go
00:06:35.179 --> 00:06:39.083
There over and over and over.
00:06:39.083 --> 00:06:40.485
So off we go and then we don't grow and we're stuck.
00:06:40.485 --> 00:06:46.591
Because you should know this, excuses are like kryptonite to
00:06:46.591 --> 00:06:49.293
Your soul.
00:06:49.293 --> 00:06:50.628
They slowly kill you on the inside, they kill us on the
00:06:50.628 --> 00:06:52.230
Inside because we're not able to do the thing that we were
00:06:52.230 --> 00:06:55.600
Created to do.
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:57.468
We're not able to be the person that we were created as we're
00:06:57.468 --> 00:06:59.904
Gonna see in just a few minutes to be.
00:06:59.904 --> 00:07:02.073
Andy: hey, i wanted to take just a minute to address a growing
00:07:03.274 --> 00:07:06.143
Crisis in america.
00:07:06.143 --> 00:07:07.512
Did you know that nearly 75 million americans have no
00:07:07.512 --> 00:07:10.781
Religious affiliation, none whatsoever?
00:07:10.781 --> 00:07:13.150
Most of us know some of these people.
00:07:13.150 --> 00:07:14.585
Many of us are related to some of these people.
00:07:14.585 --> 00:07:16.587
So for us, they aren't statistics, they're people we
00:07:16.587 --> 00:07:19.390
Love and would love to see return to faith in jesus.
00:07:19.390 --> 00:07:22.593
So at "your move," we are committed to reaching people
00:07:22.593 --> 00:07:25.496
With the teaching of jesus right where they are and when they
00:07:25.496 --> 00:07:28.833
Least expect it.
00:07:28.833 --> 00:07:30.234
We use a research back digital strategy that's already making
00:07:30.234 --> 00:07:33.905
A difference.
00:07:33.905 --> 00:07:35.239
So if you'll stick around after today's message, we would love
00:07:35.239 --> 00:07:37.174
To tell you more about it or visit the website or call the
00:07:37.174 --> 00:07:40.478
Number on your screen to learn how you can be a part of this
00:07:40.478 --> 00:07:43.381
Revolutionary approach to introducing and reintroducing
00:07:43.381 --> 00:07:46.817
People to jesus.
00:07:46.817 --> 00:07:49.687
Andy: excuses, and we don't do this on purpose, excuses make us
00:07:49.687 --> 00:07:53.257
Small and excuses ultimately make us selfish and
00:07:53.257 --> 00:07:57.461
Relationally, they make us unavailable because excuses are
00:07:57.461 --> 00:08:02.366
Fueled by a lie or lies that we tell ourselves and then we don't
00:08:02.366 --> 00:08:05.970
Think about it as lying, we end up lying to other people.
00:08:05.970 --> 00:08:09.574
Andy, why aren't you gonna go to that school?
00:08:09.574 --> 00:08:11.208
Here's why i'm not gonna go to that school.
00:08:11.208 --> 00:08:13.144
And everything i said after that was a lie that i had
00:08:13.144 --> 00:08:16.080
Internalized and then i told other people.
00:08:16.080 --> 00:08:20.851
You'll miss out.
00:08:20.851 --> 00:08:23.020
You miss out.
00:08:23.020 --> 00:08:24.589
And then because of your excuse, the world misses out on you and
00:08:24.589 --> 00:08:30.027
It's all because you've allowed or i've allowed an excuse to
00:08:30.027 --> 00:08:33.831
Become the boss of me, a tyrant, a king.
00:08:33.831 --> 00:08:37.935
A king that says, you can't try that, you'll fail.
00:08:37.935 --> 00:08:40.371
You can't do that, you know what happened last time.
00:08:40.371 --> 00:08:42.506
You shouldn't try that, somebody else has already done that.
00:08:42.506 --> 00:08:44.508
Somebody else has already tried that.
00:08:44.508 --> 00:08:46.143
Somebody else already wrote that.
00:08:46.143 --> 00:08:47.511
Somebody else already started something like that.
00:08:47.511 --> 00:08:49.313
Somebody else already did that or somebody else already failed
00:08:49.313 --> 00:08:51.949
At that.
00:08:51.949 --> 00:08:53.517
So you miss out, the world misses out on you, but here's
00:08:53.517 --> 00:08:56.754
The worst thing, and here's what we're gonna talk about for just
00:08:56.754 --> 00:08:58.589
A few minutes.
00:08:58.589 --> 00:09:00.191
You run the risk, and i know you don't wanna do this, you run the
00:09:00.191 --> 00:09:03.694
Risk of missing out on god's plan for you.
00:09:03.694 --> 00:09:07.632
Now, i need you to just work with me for just a minute, and
00:09:07.632 --> 00:09:10.368
Especially if you're not a christian or you're not even
00:09:10.368 --> 00:09:13.337
Sure there is a god, just use your imagination with me for
00:09:13.337 --> 00:09:16.574
Just a minute, okay?
00:09:16.574 --> 00:09:18.876
If there is a personal god, and by personal god i mean a
00:09:18.876 --> 00:09:23.114
Personal god who knows you, who knows maybe your name, who is
00:09:23.114 --> 00:09:27.718
Aware of you.
00:09:27.718 --> 00:09:29.086
So if there is a personal god who knows you.
00:09:29.086 --> 00:09:31.589
And if god has invited you to interact with and speak to him
00:09:31.589 --> 00:09:37.194
And respond to him as if he is a perfect father, a perfect
00:09:37.194 --> 00:09:41.165
Heavenly father, and jesus said that is how we're to approach
00:09:41.165 --> 00:09:43.901
God as a perfect heavenly father.
00:09:43.901 --> 00:09:46.404
If that's the case, then think about it, the god of the
00:09:46.404 --> 00:09:50.474
Universe may have a plan for your life.
00:09:50.474 --> 00:09:54.912
And i don't mean on monday at 3 o'clock kind of plan.
00:09:54.912 --> 00:09:57.281
I mean, the god of the universe may in fact have something
00:09:57.281 --> 00:10:00.017
You're supposed to do with your life.
00:10:00.017 --> 00:10:02.920
There may be something that is unique to you that god wants you
00:10:02.920 --> 00:10:06.857
To do.
00:10:06.857 --> 00:10:08.225
And if you're not careful, and if i'm not careful, we can miss
00:10:08.225 --> 00:10:11.996
It because we live behind excuses and paper walls.
00:10:11.996 --> 00:10:17.301
Now, this isn't original with me.
00:10:17.301 --> 00:10:19.303
The apostle paul, who, as most of you know, steps onto the
00:10:19.303 --> 00:10:22.673
Pages of history as saul of tarsus who hates christians.
00:10:22.673 --> 00:10:25.676
You may hate christians in your mind.
00:10:25.676 --> 00:10:27.044
He had had christians arrested and tortured, anyway.
00:10:27.044 --> 00:10:29.714
And then he becomes one fascinating story, and then he
00:10:29.714 --> 00:10:33.084
Becomes the most famous one ever.
00:10:33.084 --> 00:10:35.486
And in a letter that he wrote to christians living in ephesus in
00:10:35.486 --> 00:10:38.656
The first century, listen to what he says to them and what he
00:10:38.656 --> 00:10:41.625
Says to you and what he says to me.
00:10:41.625 --> 00:10:42.993
He writes, "for we," this is so powerful.
00:10:42.993 --> 00:10:45.196
You may have, you've probably read this before or heard it
00:10:45.196 --> 00:10:47.064
Before, "for we are god's creation."
00:10:47.064 --> 00:10:50.868
Now think about this, anything that's created is created with
00:10:50.868 --> 00:10:55.272
A purpose in mind.
00:10:55.272 --> 00:10:56.774
Anything that's created is created with a purpose in mind.
00:10:56.774 --> 00:10:59.243
Anything that's created is created as a means to an end
00:10:59.243 --> 00:11:03.714
That's not the thing.
00:11:03.714 --> 00:11:05.683
But then the apostle paul drops back and he addresses a subset
00:11:05.683 --> 00:11:09.286
Of god's creation.
00:11:09.286 --> 00:11:10.621
He says, we are all god's creation.
00:11:10.621 --> 00:11:13.157
Some of us, because of a choice we've made, created in christ
00:11:13.157 --> 00:11:16.727
Jesus or recreated in christ jesus, and this is the apostle
00:11:16.727 --> 00:11:20.264
Paul's code terminology for new covenant.
00:11:20.264 --> 00:11:23.400
Whenever the apostle paul writes in christ, he's talking about
00:11:23.400 --> 00:11:26.237
People who have embraced jesus's new covenant.
00:11:26.237 --> 00:11:29.006
When jesus said, i've come to establish a different kind of
00:11:29.006 --> 00:11:31.242
Relationship between god and man.
00:11:31.242 --> 00:11:32.743
I'm the mediator of a brand new contract, a brand new covenant.
00:11:32.743 --> 00:11:36.447
And in this covenant, you enter it by placing your faith in me
00:11:36.447 --> 00:11:40.017
And there's only one rule in this covenant.
00:11:40.017 --> 00:11:41.986
You are to love other people as i have and i am about to
00:11:41.986 --> 00:11:45.489
Love you.
00:11:45.489 --> 00:11:47.091
And the apostle paul says, "for we are god's creation, created
00:11:47.091 --> 00:11:50.161
In christ jesus," check this out, "to do good works."
00:11:50.161 --> 00:11:54.732
That means that god has something for you to do.
00:11:54.732 --> 00:11:59.937
God has a to do list for you.
00:11:59.937 --> 00:12:03.674
And this isn't about being good for goodness sake or even for
00:12:03.674 --> 00:12:07.044
Your sake.
00:12:07.044 --> 00:12:08.412
This is if you're in the new covenant, this is about being
00:12:08.412 --> 00:12:10.014
Good for the sake of the people around you and the world's sake.
00:12:10.014 --> 00:12:13.050
And then listen to how he caps this off.
00:12:13.050 --> 00:12:15.085
This is so powerful.
00:12:15.085 --> 00:12:16.487
This should move us all beyond our excuses, "which god prepared
00:12:16.487 --> 00:12:23.394
In advance for us to do."
00:12:23.394 --> 00:12:28.432
I mean, just suspend your agnosticism for just a minute or
00:12:28.432 --> 00:12:32.303
Your unbelief for just a minute and just imagine, just imagine.
00:12:32.303 --> 00:12:36.073
This is why it's called good news because anything that's
00:12:36.073 --> 00:12:37.975
Good news, you want it to be true even before you're
00:12:37.975 --> 00:12:39.543
Convinced the truth.
00:12:39.543 --> 00:12:40.911
I mean, imagine how good this news is that the god who
00:12:40.911 --> 00:12:45.049
Breathed the universe into existence.
00:12:45.049 --> 00:12:49.053
That the god who created everything, created you and
00:12:49.053 --> 00:12:52.823
Knows you and has a purpose for your life.
00:12:52.823 --> 00:12:57.561
What if god has a plan and a purpose for your life?
00:12:57.561 --> 00:13:03.234
And what if you're missing it or missing part of it because
00:13:03.234 --> 00:13:08.372
You're hiding out and you're excusing out and you're opting
00:13:08.372 --> 00:13:13.510
Out of that good purpose for your life because of fear,
00:13:13.510 --> 00:13:17.781
Because of insecurity, because of something somebody who
00:13:17.781 --> 00:13:20.718
Doesn't even know you anymore labeled you, somebody who's not
00:13:20.718 --> 00:13:23.254
Even around anymore called you.
00:13:23.254 --> 00:13:25.556
Because there's something in your past that just undermined
00:13:25.556 --> 00:13:28.259
Your self-esteem and undermined your, you know, your belief in
00:13:28.259 --> 00:13:31.395
Yourself, all of which would be understood, you know, anybody
00:13:31.395 --> 00:13:33.464
Who hears your story would understand, but what if that is
00:13:33.464 --> 00:13:36.467
Holding you back from the thing god created you to do?
00:13:36.467 --> 00:13:41.538
And who god created you to be.
00:13:41.538 --> 00:13:45.609
Now, kind of pulling back for a minute, back to just everybody.
00:13:45.609 --> 00:13:49.513
Here's the thing, regardless if you're a religious person or not
00:13:49.513 --> 00:13:51.582
Or a christian person or not, this is so important, okay?
00:13:51.582 --> 00:13:54.485
Excuses, and we don't think of it this way, but it's true.
00:13:54.485 --> 00:13:57.554
Excuses are really a subtle way of refusing to take
00:13:57.554 --> 00:14:01.058
Responsibility for our lives.
00:14:01.058 --> 00:14:04.094
Excuses are really a subtle way of refusing to take
00:14:04.094 --> 00:14:06.597
Responsibility and the reason you know that to be the case is
00:14:06.597 --> 00:14:09.500
You've seen people, you know, they've excused their
00:14:09.500 --> 00:14:12.136
Irresponsibility with excuses.
00:14:12.136 --> 00:14:14.138
And you look at what they could be and should be, what they
00:14:14.138 --> 00:14:16.173
Should do and the opportunities that come their way and they
00:14:16.173 --> 00:14:18.409
Miss out on it and you feel like, goodness, you're just
00:14:18.409 --> 00:14:20.744
Being irresponsible with the opportunities and the gifts,
00:14:20.744 --> 00:14:23.714
You know, that come your way.
00:14:23.714 --> 00:14:25.049
Now, so to wrap up, here's what i wanted to do.
00:14:25.049 --> 00:14:28.786
Here's what i decided to do.
00:14:28.786 --> 00:14:30.154
I'm gonna give you five not so easy steps for breaking through
00:14:30.154 --> 00:14:35.159
Paper walls that hold you back.
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:37.061
But before we start with the list, i need just one disclaimer
00:14:37.061 --> 00:14:40.197
Or really it's a warning.
00:14:40.197 --> 00:14:41.865
If you work through this list and if you take it seriously,
00:14:41.865 --> 00:14:44.568
You're going to get your feelings hurt by you.
00:14:44.568 --> 00:14:48.272
You are going to have to hurt your own feelings, okay?
00:14:48.272 --> 00:14:52.409
But if you will be honest with these questions, if you'll be
00:14:52.409 --> 00:14:54.945
Honest with this process, you're gonna discover something about
00:14:54.945 --> 00:14:57.948
You that may have the potential that has potential maybe to
00:14:57.948 --> 00:15:01.352
Really change the whole trajectory of your life.
00:15:01.352 --> 00:15:04.021
It'll certainly enrich your relationships.
00:15:04.021 --> 00:15:06.523
And the thing is this, whatever you discover may be new to you,
00:15:06.523 --> 00:15:11.495
But it will not be new to the people around you.
00:15:11.495 --> 00:15:14.732
In fact, when you share what you've discovered that is an
00:15:14.732 --> 00:15:17.634
Excuse rather than a cause, you may be, you know, you may be
00:15:17.634 --> 00:15:21.605
Excited about this new revelation.
00:15:21.605 --> 00:15:23.407
They won't be surprised.
00:15:23.407 --> 00:15:24.775
They're gonna be relieved because they already know just
00:15:24.775 --> 00:15:30.314
Like you already know.
00:15:30.314 --> 00:15:32.416
We can smell an excuse a mile off unless we're the one
00:15:32.416 --> 00:15:37.921
Who stinks.
00:15:37.921 --> 00:15:39.390
I just made that up.
00:15:39.390 --> 00:15:40.724
Okay, anyway.
00:15:40.724 --> 00:15:42.092
So here's step number one.
00:15:42.092 --> 00:15:43.460
Everybody ready?
00:15:43.460 --> 00:15:44.795
Step number one, here we go.
00:15:44.795 --> 00:15:46.163
Step number one, go through this quick.
00:15:46.163 --> 00:15:47.498
Step number one, you gotta identify 'em.
00:15:47.498 --> 00:15:48.832
You can't abandon an excuse you have failed to identify.
00:15:48.832 --> 00:15:51.435
And the best way to identify an excuse, we've talked about this,
00:15:51.435 --> 00:15:54.405
The best way to identify 'em is you have to get in the habit of
00:15:54.405 --> 00:15:57.074
Listening to your becauses.
00:15:57.074 --> 00:15:59.610
Listen to your becauses.
00:15:59.610 --> 00:16:01.545
I can't, because.
00:16:01.545 --> 00:16:02.880
I quit, because.
00:16:02.880 --> 00:16:04.214
I won't, because.
00:16:04.214 --> 00:16:05.582
I have this debt, because.
00:16:05.582 --> 00:16:06.917
I'm out of shape, because.
00:16:06.917 --> 00:16:08.285
The reason i don't exercise, because.
00:16:08.285 --> 00:16:09.620
The reason, because, because.
00:16:09.620 --> 00:16:10.988
Listen to your becauses because we have a tendency, you know,
00:16:10.988 --> 00:16:15.359
It's a rut in the road we just go to the same becauses over
00:16:15.359 --> 00:16:18.062
And over.
00:16:18.062 --> 00:16:19.430
So listen to your becauses.
00:16:19.430 --> 00:16:20.764
And when you catch yourself becausing and you realize,
00:16:20.764 --> 00:16:23.467
You know what?
00:16:23.467 --> 00:16:24.835
I think i say this just about every time she comes up,
00:16:24.835 --> 00:16:26.437
He comes up, that comes up, the past comes up, you know,
00:16:26.437 --> 00:16:28.739
You mention that.
00:16:28.739 --> 00:16:30.074
I want you to write it down, even when you know it's
00:16:30.074 --> 00:16:32.543
An excuse, okay?
00:16:32.543 --> 00:16:33.911
Step number two.
00:16:33.911 --> 00:16:35.245
First we're gonna identify 'em.
00:16:35.245 --> 00:16:36.613
Second, second excuse, and, okay, this one, this is where
00:16:36.613 --> 00:16:40.451
You might hurt your own feelings, okay?
00:16:40.451 --> 00:16:44.455
You need to interrogate your becauses.
00:16:44.455 --> 00:16:47.424
That is, you begin to ask the question why?
00:16:47.424 --> 00:16:51.261
For example, why, why do i immediately opt for that
00:16:51.261 --> 00:16:55.399
Particular because?
00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:56.733
That's you're gonna interrogate your becauses.
00:16:56.733 --> 00:16:58.102
You got a because here or several becauses.
00:16:58.102 --> 00:16:59.837
Okay, i'm gonna interrogate 'em, i'm gonna ask these becauses
00:16:59.837 --> 00:17:01.905
Some questions.
00:17:01.905 --> 00:17:03.240
Why do i immediately opt for that particular because?
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:06.710
You need to know.
00:17:06.710 --> 00:17:08.378
Why do i make that excuse whenever that topic comes up,
00:17:08.378 --> 00:17:11.915
That part of my past comes up, that relationship comes up.
00:17:11.915 --> 00:17:15.419
Why do i immediately go to that because?
00:17:15.419 --> 00:17:19.223
You gotta ask really hard questions like, what am i
00:17:19.223 --> 00:17:21.658
Afraid of?
00:17:21.658 --> 00:17:23.026
I'm not afraid of anything.
00:17:23.026 --> 00:17:24.394
Okay, we're all afraid of something, okay, so just get
00:17:24.394 --> 00:17:26.530
Over that one.
00:17:26.530 --> 00:17:27.865
What am i afraid of?
00:17:27.865 --> 00:17:29.233
What, who am i afraid of?
00:17:29.233 --> 00:17:31.001
Who--is there somebody i'm afraid of?
00:17:31.001 --> 00:17:33.403
Ask yourself, i know this is hard.
00:17:33.403 --> 00:17:35.038
Am i just being lazy?
00:17:35.038 --> 00:17:36.640
Am i just refusing to move forward because i'm just being
00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:40.277
Lazy, which means am i just being selfish because lazy and
00:17:40.277 --> 00:17:44.648
Selfish generally go together.
00:17:44.648 --> 00:17:46.517
Am i just being insecure?
00:17:46.517 --> 00:17:48.919
Is this something that i know i ought to, i know i should, but i
00:17:48.919 --> 00:17:52.990
Don't say to people i know i ought to, i know i should.
00:17:52.990 --> 00:17:55.058
I give them the because, because, because,
00:17:55.058 --> 00:17:56.793
Because, because.
00:17:56.793 --> 00:17:58.128
And don't move ahead until you have an answer, until you've
00:17:58.128 --> 00:18:01.765
Interrogated your becauses.
00:18:01.765 --> 00:18:03.700
And here's why.
00:18:03.700 --> 00:18:05.202
Because this is so important.
00:18:05.202 --> 00:18:06.570
Your answer, if you'll do this, i'm telling you, if you do this,
00:18:06.570 --> 00:18:09.173
Your answer will clarify whether or not it's an actual reason
00:18:09.173 --> 00:18:14.178
Because there are some actual reasons why we don't do
00:18:14.178 --> 00:18:16.513
Certain things.
00:18:16.513 --> 00:18:17.848
If it's an actual reason or a made up reason.
00:18:17.848 --> 00:18:20.484
If it's an actual brick wall or just a paper wall.
00:18:20.484 --> 00:18:24.721
And here's the thing, answering why is gonna reduce the power of
00:18:24.721 --> 00:18:28.959
The excuse.
00:18:28.959 --> 00:18:30.527
Anytime we bring an excuse into the light, you know
00:18:30.527 --> 00:18:33.197
What happens?
00:18:33.197 --> 00:18:34.565
It gets lighter. it gets lighter.
00:18:34.565 --> 00:18:37.401
It gets smaller.
00:18:37.401 --> 00:18:38.902
It gets sillier.
00:18:38.902 --> 00:18:40.904
It begins to look more and more ridiculous.
00:18:40.904 --> 00:18:44.508
It becomes disposable.
00:18:44.508 --> 00:18:47.911
Suddenly it's much easier to leave behind.
00:18:47.911 --> 00:18:53.116
Third step is this, it's gonna re-label 'em.
00:18:53.116 --> 00:18:56.286
That's not a reason.
00:18:56.286 --> 00:18:58.088
That's not how you look in the mirror, you just tell yourself,
00:18:58.088 --> 00:18:59.690
You know what?
00:18:59.690 --> 00:19:01.024
That's not a reason. that's an excuse.
00:19:01.024 --> 00:19:03.660
And you say it out loud.
00:19:03.660 --> 00:19:05.028
And here's the thing, you can say this, you know what?
00:19:05.028 --> 00:19:06.496
This is an excuse i created.
00:19:06.496 --> 00:19:08.765
This is an excuse, this is a paper wall that i built.
00:19:08.765 --> 00:19:11.902
And here's the great liberating news.
00:19:11.902 --> 00:19:14.004
And if i built it, in other words, if i created this wall
00:19:14.004 --> 00:19:19.009
That's not even really a wall, if i built it, i can tear
00:19:19.009 --> 00:19:24.014
It down.
00:19:24.014 --> 00:19:25.349
I'm not a victim.
00:19:25.349 --> 00:19:26.717
I'm not a prisoner to my past.
00:19:26.717 --> 00:19:28.852
I'm not a prisoner to what i've been labeled.
00:19:28.852 --> 00:19:30.821
I'm not a prisoner to the fact that i tried and failed once.
00:19:30.821 --> 00:19:33.290
I'm not a prisoner to my fear.
00:19:33.290 --> 00:19:35.525
I've been created by god to do stuff.
00:19:35.525 --> 00:19:38.528
If i'm a creation, i'm a means to an end and i wanna know what
00:19:38.528 --> 00:19:42.132
The end is, and i'm not gonna spend my life hiding behind
00:19:42.132 --> 00:19:45.669
A paper wall and live my whole life and get to the end and
00:19:45.669 --> 00:19:49.139
Never know what i was ultimately born to be a means to an end for
00:19:49.139 --> 00:19:54.344
Or for whom i was born to be a means to an end.
00:19:54.344 --> 00:19:59.383
I've got a life to live.
00:19:59.383 --> 00:20:01.151
I've got a world to improve.
00:20:01.151 --> 00:20:03.020
And now, you're on your way.
00:20:03.020 --> 00:20:06.290
Now you're on your way.
00:20:06.290 --> 00:20:07.658
Now there's nobody else to blame.
00:20:07.658 --> 00:20:08.992
Now there's no other reason to hide here.
00:20:08.992 --> 00:20:10.494
Now you hold all the cards.
00:20:10.494 --> 00:20:12.729
Now you're in the driver's seat.
00:20:12.729 --> 00:20:15.098
You got, you cut ties with the lies, right?
00:20:15.098 --> 00:20:18.935
You disabled the labels.
00:20:18.935 --> 00:20:21.371
One more.
00:20:21.371 --> 00:20:22.739
I like this one.
00:20:22.739 --> 00:20:24.074
You just sent your justification on a permanent vacation.
00:20:24.074 --> 00:20:26.677
That's some good preaching.
00:20:26.677 --> 00:20:28.011
I'm not really that good of a preacher, but i like that one.
00:20:28.011 --> 00:20:29.780
Anyway, the point is, once you're willing to make this
00:20:29.780 --> 00:20:32.582
Discovery, once you're willing to step into this and
00:20:32.582 --> 00:20:34.351
Acknowledge it, acknowledge it with yourself, the truth, the
00:20:34.351 --> 00:20:38.555
Truth has begun to set you free.
00:20:38.555 --> 00:20:41.024
Free to be, free to love, free to do, free to be fully who god
00:20:41.024 --> 00:20:47.764
Made you to be.
00:20:47.764 --> 00:20:50.200
Step number four.
00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:53.403
This is the nail in the coffin, okay?
00:20:51.535 --> 00:20:55.005
In fact, if you don't do anything else and you realize
00:20:55.005 --> 00:20:58.809
That you've got a paper wall in your life, just one, if you've
00:20:58.809 --> 00:21:01.511
Identified one excuse, and maybe before, maybe you've known for
00:21:01.511 --> 00:21:04.581
Years, if you'll just take that one excuse and you'll do step
00:21:04.581 --> 00:21:08.618
Number four, this may give you the energy and the courage to
00:21:08.618 --> 00:21:12.222
Punch through.
00:21:12.222 --> 00:21:13.557
Step number four is to answer this question.
00:21:13.557 --> 00:21:16.893
What do i lose if i continue to excuse?
00:21:16.893 --> 00:21:20.764
What do i lose if i continue to excuse?
00:21:20.764 --> 00:21:25.068
What do i give up?
00:21:25.068 --> 00:21:27.104
What do i walk away from?
00:21:27.104 --> 00:21:29.106
What do i miss out on?
00:21:29.106 --> 00:21:32.109
What do you give up? who do you give up?
00:21:32.109 --> 00:21:34.811
What do you miss out on?
00:21:34.811 --> 00:21:36.179
Who ends up missing out on you?
00:21:36.179 --> 00:21:38.782
Who for your entire marriage or your entire relationship with
00:21:38.782 --> 00:21:41.351
Them wonders if they're ever gonna have all of you?
00:21:41.351 --> 00:21:44.554
What is the price you're paying for living behind that
00:21:44.554 --> 00:21:48.125
Paper wall?
00:21:48.125 --> 00:21:49.493
What is that one excuse costing you?
00:21:49.493 --> 00:21:53.930
You'll discover that the price, you know, this, the price is
00:21:53.930 --> 00:21:58.268
Just too high.
00:21:58.268 --> 00:22:01.605
Because there are no do-overs.
00:22:01.605 --> 00:22:04.741
There are no do-overs in the arenas of life that matter most.
00:22:04.741 --> 00:22:09.446
You only have one first marriage, right?
00:22:09.446 --> 00:22:11.615
You only get one body to take care of.
00:22:11.615 --> 00:22:14.651
And if you don't take care of your body, do you know what
00:22:14.651 --> 00:22:16.586
You're assuming?
00:22:16.586 --> 00:22:17.921
You're assuming some other body is gonna take care of your body
00:22:17.921 --> 00:22:20.891
And you're gonna get to the end of your life and realize all
00:22:20.891 --> 00:22:23.293
Those reasons i gave for not taking care of my health, they
00:22:23.293 --> 00:22:26.296
Were paper walls and it's too late to go back.
00:22:26.296 --> 00:22:28.932
All those excuses i gave for not managing my finances more
00:22:28.932 --> 00:22:31.902
Responsibly, paper walls and it's too late to go back.
00:22:31.902 --> 00:22:34.738
All those excuses i gave for not reconnecting, not forgiving,
00:22:34.738 --> 00:22:37.774
Not, you know, reconciling, all of those were just paper walls,
00:22:37.774 --> 00:22:40.977
Paper walls, and now it's too late to go back because in the
00:22:40.977 --> 00:22:43.747
Arenas of life that matter most, when time is gone, oftentimes
00:22:43.747 --> 00:22:48.752
The opportunity is gone as well.
00:22:48.752 --> 00:22:51.321
And you don't wanna live that way.
00:22:51.321 --> 00:22:52.923
You don't wanna get to the end of your life and look back
00:22:52.923 --> 00:22:54.825
On regret.
00:22:54.825 --> 00:22:56.193
And you know what regret is?
00:22:56.193 --> 00:22:57.527
Regret is, i should have, i could have, but i didn't.
00:22:57.527 --> 00:23:04.201
I should have, i could have, but i didn't.
00:23:04.201 --> 00:23:09.072
And every single time somebody confronted me about what
00:23:09.072 --> 00:23:12.642
I should have done and could have done, i had an answer.
00:23:12.642 --> 00:23:17.113
But my becauses weren't the cause, they were just
00:23:17.113 --> 00:23:20.350
Paper walls.
00:23:20.350 --> 00:23:23.520
And i don't know you personally, but i know you don't wanna to
00:23:23.520 --> 00:23:27.457
Live that way and you don't wanna end up that way and you
00:23:27.457 --> 00:23:30.894
Don't wanna look back on that and i don't wanna look back on
00:23:30.894 --> 00:23:34.364
That either.
00:23:34.364 --> 00:23:38.168
Step number five though.
00:23:38.168 --> 00:23:39.569
Step number five is for extra credit and it's tell somebody.
00:23:39.569 --> 00:23:42.739
I actually did this recently, about two or three, about two
00:23:42.739 --> 00:23:45.842
And a half months ago.
00:23:45.842 --> 00:23:47.177
I'm in the kitchen with some of our, with our family and my
00:23:47.177 --> 00:23:50.180
Daughter-in-law was there.
00:23:50.180 --> 00:23:51.515
And she said, you know, she calls me mr. andy, i guess it's
00:23:51.515 --> 00:23:54.885
Not mr. stanley, it's not andy, it's in between that's okay.
00:23:54.885 --> 00:23:57.053
"mr. andy," she said,
00:23:57.053 --> 00:23:58.388
I think you should--" and my two sons were are like,
00:23:58.388 --> 00:24:00.790
"dad, yeah, you should."
00:24:00.790 --> 00:24:02.158
And this is something that comes up pretty often.
00:24:02.158 --> 00:24:04.227
And i immediately went to my because.
00:24:04.227 --> 00:24:05.929
Well, i can't do that because.
00:24:05.929 --> 00:24:07.497
I can't do that because.
00:24:07.497 --> 00:24:08.832
And as soon as it came out of my mouth because i was already
00:24:08.832 --> 00:24:10.734
Working on this content, i'm like, there it is.
00:24:10.734 --> 00:24:13.136
Every time this comes up and it's not even a big deal, every
00:24:13.136 --> 00:24:15.939
Time this topic comes up, i immediately retreat to why i
00:24:15.939 --> 00:24:20.644
Can't and why i shouldn't try.
00:24:20.644 --> 00:24:23.413
And i called myself out on it later i said to her, i said to
00:24:23.413 --> 00:24:26.149
Danielle, i said, "you know what the other day when you brought
00:24:26.149 --> 00:24:27.751
That up and i said, you know, i said what i said because that's
00:24:27.751 --> 00:24:29.753
What i always say."
00:24:29.753 --> 00:24:31.087
I said, "you know what?
00:24:31.087 --> 00:24:32.422
That's an excuse. that's an excuse.
00:24:32.422 --> 00:24:35.125
And i'm glad you brought it up again."
00:24:35.125 --> 00:24:36.493
And she kind of smiled, which meant, i know we all know that's
00:24:36.493 --> 00:24:38.828
An excuse.
00:24:38.828 --> 00:24:40.163
And when you give the same reason every time, i don't wanna
00:24:40.163 --> 00:24:41.965
Live there, i don't want you to live there.
00:24:41.965 --> 00:24:44.034
So just tell somebody.
00:24:44.034 --> 00:24:46.603
Imagine, i mean this is hard to imagine.
00:24:46.603 --> 00:24:48.705
Imagine if everybody in our community decided to live
00:24:48.705 --> 00:24:52.976
This way.
00:24:52.976 --> 00:24:54.344
Imagine if everybody came clean with their excuses, what would
00:24:54.344 --> 00:24:58.481
Happen in our world or in our community, our nation,
00:24:58.481 --> 00:25:02.018
Our families.
00:25:02.018 --> 00:25:03.954
Last thing.
00:25:03.954 --> 00:25:05.322
And i've kind of said this, but i just wanna say it
00:25:05.322 --> 00:25:07.190
One more time.
00:25:07.190 --> 00:25:08.825
If you don't deal with this, if you don't identify your excuses,
00:25:08.825 --> 00:25:14.798
You're gonna excuse your life away and that's too high a price
00:25:14.798 --> 00:25:21.738
To pay.
00:25:21.738 --> 00:25:23.073
You were created by god to be a means to an end, and until you
00:25:23.073 --> 00:25:27.944
Discover what that end is, there's always gonna be
00:25:27.944 --> 00:25:30.547
Something missing in you because you were made, you were made in
00:25:30.547 --> 00:25:34.718
The image of god, you are an image bearer, you are
00:25:34.718 --> 00:25:38.888
A purpose bearer.
00:25:38.888 --> 00:25:40.690
And anything that's an obstacle to discovering what that is and
00:25:40.690 --> 00:25:43.526
Doing it, you just need to get rid of it.
00:25:43.526 --> 00:25:48.064
You were created to do something in the world, for the world, for
00:25:48.064 --> 00:25:50.834
The people in the world.
00:25:50.834 --> 00:25:52.502
So let's--can we just decide, you know what?
00:25:52.502 --> 00:25:55.271
No more excuses.
00:25:55.271 --> 00:25:57.040
No more hiding.
00:25:57.040 --> 00:25:58.575
I'm gonna make up my mind.
00:25:58.575 --> 00:26:00.577
No more paper walls.
00:26:00.577 --> 00:26:01.945
From now i'm just gonna admit it.
00:26:01.945 --> 00:26:03.279
You know, i said because, but i just wanna stop and say that's
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:05.415
Not really the beca--that's not really the cause.
00:26:05.415 --> 00:26:07.517
The real reason is that just scares me.
00:26:07.517 --> 00:26:11.254
The real reason is that just reminds me.
00:26:11.254 --> 00:26:14.324
The real reason is, i'm afraid of what's on the other side.
00:26:14.324 --> 00:26:17.994
The real reason is i don't even know why i say that, but i just
00:26:17.994 --> 00:26:21.564
Wanna stop myself and let you know that's not a reason.
00:26:21.564 --> 00:26:25.101
That's just an excuse.
00:26:25.101 --> 00:26:28.672
Because, after all, there are just two kinds of people in
00:26:28.672 --> 00:26:33.309
The world.
00:26:33.309 --> 00:26:35.578
There are people who are not you.
00:26:35.578 --> 00:26:39.716
And there's someone who is you.
00:26:39.716 --> 00:26:44.454
And only you can do what god created you to do.
00:26:44.454 --> 00:26:51.194
Andy: hey, thanks so much for watching.
00:26:51.194 --> 00:26:52.862
You may find it hard to believe that 75 million americans claim
00:26:52.862 --> 00:26:56.266
No religious affiliation.
00:26:56.266 --> 00:26:58.401
On a personal note, perhaps you found it nearly impossible to
00:26:58.401 --> 00:27:01.504
Believe that your son or your daughter or perhaps a grandchild
00:27:01.504 --> 00:27:04.374
Drifted away from faith as part of that number.
00:27:04.374 --> 00:27:07.210
This is a crisis culturally and perhaps for you it's
00:27:07.210 --> 00:27:10.213
A crisis personally.
00:27:10.213 --> 00:27:11.548
At "your move," we are committed to addressing that crisis.
00:27:11.548 --> 00:27:15.485
We actually have a plan to solve it, but we need your help.
00:27:15.485 --> 00:27:18.388
We've developed a digital online tool that invites people to take
00:27:18.388 --> 00:27:21.791
A personal assessment that launches them on a journey that
00:27:21.791 --> 00:27:25.195
Eventually intersects their questions with the teaching of
00:27:25.195 --> 00:27:28.498
Jesus and ultimately with a bible teaching church in
00:27:28.498 --> 00:27:32.268
Their community.
00:27:32.268 --> 00:27:33.603
Tens of thousands of people are currently engaged in this
00:27:33.603 --> 00:27:36.039
Process, but we need your help to continue creating the bread
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:39.676
Crumbs, the content that keeps them moving forward on their
00:27:39.676 --> 00:27:43.179
Faith journey.
00:27:43.179 --> 00:27:44.581
We're attempting something that no one has ever attempted before
00:27:44.581 --> 00:27:47.751
And it is already working.
00:27:47.751 --> 00:27:49.586
To find out more, go to the website or call the number at
00:27:49.586 --> 00:27:52.388
The bottom of the screen and as always, thank you so much for
00:27:52.388 --> 00:27:55.525
Watching and now it's your move.
00:27:55.525 --> 00:28:20.950
...
00:28:24.187 --> 00:28:29.010
