Hey, what's up Ken folk , how y'all doing listen
0:13
, uh , I'm PT, Gullo
0:15
, and I'm Ray
0:18
Sanders. All right . So
0:20
the question for today, the question
0:22
for today was this. I wish
0:25
I knew about the different types of love, the
0:27
Bible references, especially the three types
0:30
and songs of songs, romantic
0:32
commitment, and sexual wish.
0:34
I had a better understanding of God's love before
0:36
getting married, though
0:39
his wisdom and timing didn't provide that.
0:41
And I know I can trust his plan. Wish
0:44
I knew how to reject teachings that idolized
0:46
marriage, rather than ponder them as
0:49
possibly credible. So
0:51
this is a multipart question , uh
0:53
, that our friend Sonia asked . And
0:55
so we're not gonna get to the whole question today,
0:58
but I , what I wanted to deal with today
1:00
was specifically her thought of
1:03
idolizing marriage. And,
1:07
you know, this is a conversation. And
1:09
so for those of you who are there , um
1:12
, man , we just, we want to just foster a
1:14
conversation between us
1:20
and you and whoever else is gonna be
1:22
joining us about marriage. And whether
1:24
you think in the culture is idolized. And
1:26
so I'm a , I'm gonna let Ray talk a
1:29
few Ray, what's up first
1:32
off . I obviously I'm
1:34
not married. Yeah. And I
1:36
would , I'm pursuing that that path, but
1:39
how do you not idolize the
1:43
world ? What do you think that it's idolized? Yeah,
1:45
I think , I think that the, the , what
1:47
I want to tackle is the fairy
1:49
tale that Disney has sold us, that there's a happily
1:52
ever after. And that marriage is built upon
1:54
love and love will make everything better.
1:57
And although that's true, I think that we romanticize
2:00
it a little too much. So that's why I think the idolization
2:02
comes because , uh,
2:04
I don't want to sound too extreme,
2:07
but it , it , to me, from what I've seen and
2:10
heard, it seems like the altar
2:12
is more of a picture , uh
2:15
, picture time and not necessary. I think
2:17
a lot of people don't think past the altar
2:20
and the cameo and the pitcher and the celebration.
2:23
Yo, I used to have a saying , we
2:26
nobody thinks about, well, I want say
2:28
it's very, very sex . I don't have the
2:31
side of , is this safe, safe space? I
2:34
don't know if it's safe or not. <laugh>, they're
2:36
safe for me, man . I gotta go home. But no , uh
2:39
, I used to have this saying , everybody thinks about
2:41
the wedding. Nobody thinks about, I
2:44
used to say, nobody thinks about being a wife, but
2:46
conversely, everybody thinks about the wedding, right?
2:48
Nobody thinks about being a husband,
2:51
you know, and what that entails and what that's
2:53
going to take. And
2:55
that's where I met with it. What , like, what does it,
2:58
after, after the honeymoon is
3:01
where the marriage I feel really takes
3:03
place. So how do we go
3:05
from what we've seen? Like the
3:07
, the bat Tourettes, the , the
3:09
, uh , the fairytale weddings. How do we go
3:12
from that to really understanding that you gotta dig
3:14
in? Yeah. And how does, how
3:16
does God look at a marriage
3:19
and how do we look at it? Like God. So we see
3:21
it the right way. Well, yeah , man,
3:23
it's , it's funny that you say that cuz the
3:25
rest of her question kind
3:28
of alluded to some of the things you're talking
3:30
about cuz um, she
3:32
, she, she went on to say specifically ones
3:34
that subversively promote marriage as
3:37
excluding, replacing other friendships
3:40
and make marriage seem like a necessary
3:42
tool of salvation rather
3:44
than one of the many things God uses
3:47
to bless us and grow us. So
3:50
I guess, I guess today, what
3:52
do we, what do we really need
3:54
marriage for? Yeah. No. Okay.
3:58
First of all, I love being married. Um,
4:02
but I think, I think we,
4:05
we go into marriage sometimes looking for marriage
4:08
to serve us rather than for
4:10
us to serve God through the marriage. Um,
4:14
there's uh , a passage of scripture I'd
4:16
like to look at it's Ephesians chapter five. I
4:19
wish I could pull it up for y'all but I'm gonna just pull it
4:21
up on my own. Ephesians chapter
4:23
five, verse
4:26
25, he'll say husbands, love your wives.
4:28
Justice Christ love the church and gave
4:30
himself up for, to make
4:32
a holy cleansing her by
4:34
the washing with water, through the word and
4:37
to present her to himself as a radiant
4:39
church, without staying or rink or
4:41
any other blemish, but holy and
4:43
blameless in this same way, husbands out to love their
4:45
wives as their own bodies. He loves his
4:47
wife, loves himself after all, no one
4:49
ever hated their own body,
4:52
but they feed and care for their body. Just as
4:54
Christ does the church for, we are members
4:56
of his body. For this reason, a
4:59
man will leave his father and mother and
5:01
be United to his wife and the two will become
5:03
one flesh. So then, you know,
5:05
he's taught my man , but then he goes on in verse 32
5:07
to say, this
5:10
is a profound mystery, but
5:12
I'm talking about Christ and the church
5:16
and you
5:19
, you know, he , he basically
5:21
takes marriage and
5:25
he says
5:28
that basically it's a earthly
5:32
copy of a heavenly reality. It's
5:35
supposed to help us see the
5:38
ultimate marriage Christ
5:40
and his church. And so, you
5:43
know, when we talk about the gospel message, when
5:46
you go to a wedding and, and people are
5:48
at a wedding and you're just like, yo it , you
5:50
, you see the bride and groom get together. It's
5:54
supposed to remind each and each and every
5:56
one of us of this eternal
5:59
unending, undying love
6:01
that we have , uh
6:03
, with Jesus Christ that's possible. Uh
6:06
, because cuz we are his bride of course.
6:09
And he's
6:12
uh , he's out , he's outgrow . And
6:14
so rather than it pointing
6:17
to, you know, so, so I think
6:19
what happens sometimes is like we don't see that
6:22
the weddings here, point to the ultimate
6:24
wedding that we have in Christ
6:26
Jesus and the gospel. So
6:29
in today's in today's world
6:32
is really just our opportunity to
6:35
see what the relationship will
6:38
be like when Christ
6:40
comes back kind of . Yeah,
6:43
well, yes.
6:45
But then also now, like
6:48
we have the opportunity to experience , to
6:50
feel and to experience unending
6:55
UN committed love right now.
6:57
Like I don't need to settle for
7:00
anything less than God's best,
7:03
which is Jesus in the church . So that, so
7:05
that every time I'm at a wedding, it should remind me,
7:08
Ooh , I got the same love available
7:10
to me right now, whether
7:13
I'm married or whether I'm single. That's
7:17
a lot. That is a lot, man. We
7:19
, uh, uh , it's something,
7:22
you know, I , I think over, over
7:24
time you kind of, you know, I
7:26
, I , I think sometimes like the culture
7:28
says, Hey, everybody needs
7:31
to get married. And you know,
7:33
when you look at the statistics, that's
7:35
not gonna bear itself out. You
7:37
know, if you know, 80%
7:40
of people, you know, if we
7:42
talk about African Americans , 80%
7:45
of , uh , women are in are
7:47
single, you know, not married
7:50
then you know those numbers,
7:53
aren't going to bear themselves out. And so
7:55
is it that God wants us to have less
7:57
than his best or is it that God uses
8:01
the, the temporary , uh
8:03
, institution of marriage to
8:06
point us to where we can get love real
8:08
love right now with the way love
8:10
and marriage is going. What
8:12
do you think, what do you think is pointing
8:14
to like with the divorce rates , the
8:17
marriage rates, the what
8:20
in the macro sense, is
8:22
there a problem with the way that we are looking
8:24
at marriage? Or is it
8:26
a misunderstanding of marriage or, well
8:29
, well , I think a lot of times we put the,
8:33
the eternal weight of Godhead on
8:35
marriage. Like all
8:37
my problems, all my issues, all
8:40
my needs, all my, whatever, like on
8:42
that person and that person can't
8:44
bear the weight of God, like
8:46
at , at , and vice versa. And
8:49
so ultimately sometimes
8:52
I think some of our , um
8:54
, broken or sometimes
8:56
the , that, that breaking
8:59
or tearing of that union is it sometimes
9:01
I will , a lot of times I think it's it's
9:04
I idolize the person I married. I thought
9:07
they were God. I mean, no one will say that,
9:09
but they weren't and they always let
9:11
you down. Okay.
9:15
So, I mean, look at the
9:17
movies and stuff that we watch . I , I can go all like
9:20
, everything is like, yo,
9:23
like I watch one. I , this person, yeah.
9:25
My life becomes complete because
9:27
I can depend on this person, yo look, EV
9:30
like, okay, I don't hold it radar . Nobody's
9:32
afraid , but no, we got to I , no, no, I don't.
9:34
I mean, I watch these movies
9:36
right. And great
9:39
movies. And , and I also watch
9:41
, uh , Marvel movies that
9:43
ain't real too. So nobody don't nobody. Yeah
9:45
. Yeah . Okay. So, but like
9:48
it's, they meet the person head
9:50
over heels and then instantly
9:53
life is 50 times
9:55
better and they live heavily ever
9:58
after. That's what we sell every
10:01
time you see one of these. So
10:03
then, so then what do you think happens
10:06
with the individuals , uh,
10:09
that are looking for love and looking for
10:11
something real and meaningful?
10:14
Oh, it gets deeper than that because you
10:16
see the , you see the movies, right . You see the happily
10:18
ever athlete . Right . Then you look at your parents. Mm
10:21
. So now where do you exactly
10:23
look for the actual reality of
10:26
what love and relationship and marriage.
10:29
So then you start to idolize, you
10:31
know what it seems like, because if they're putting
10:34
it on TV, that means, well, I
10:36
guess subconsciously I could say from my point of view,
10:38
it means that this is what society is really thinking
10:40
since they're putting it on movies, putting it on screen. Yeah
10:42
. This must be what majority of society is
10:44
thinking. And if somebody that doesn't really think clear critically
10:47
to me, if they don't look at it,
10:49
like this is just a movie, then they're looking
10:51
at society. Like this is what it should be.
10:53
And then that's their expectations
10:56
for yeah. I
10:58
, I , so I'm with you there, but okay.
11:00
So I'm gonna push a little bit. Okay. What
11:03
if that's what we were design for and
11:07
like, instead of suppressing the, the,
11:12
the want and desire to be fully
11:15
loved and fully known , um,
11:18
what if we are just looking for
11:21
love in the wrong places,
11:25
but where , but where are the right places? Well , and
11:27
see, that's what I've said. I think we were
11:30
designed for
11:32
a love that no. Wow
11:34
. No other human can give
11:36
you that mud came full circle, right?
11:39
No other human. Well, if
11:42
his name is G and , and that's really what we said,
11:45
love it . Oh , okay. Right . Okay. So
11:47
deep down in our soul, you
11:49
know, I used to say this all the time. Um,
11:52
I took it from GK Chesterton, he's
11:54
from the 18th century. And so I had
11:57
to bring it in into today. A
11:59
man , uh , a
12:01
man goes into a strip club looking for God
12:05
like that, that
12:07
deep down in every one of you'll
12:10
catch that other way . <laugh> right . That
12:13
, that deep down in every one of our souls,
12:15
right. There's this, there's this
12:18
hunger , uh , for
12:20
God. Okay . And we just feel
12:22
it with junk food. Yeah
12:25
. And you know how we eat, eat some junk
12:27
food, eat
12:29
a little bit here, eat a little bit, there, you
12:31
get hungry with in an hour, two hours and
12:33
you want to eat again. Right. That's how I ate my
12:35
last paint on ice cream. Right. That's exactly
12:37
how I did it . Right. You know , I mean, but, but
12:40
the full meal is Christ
12:43
is Jesus, right? Yeah. And
12:45
I think everything in our world pulls us
12:47
away from that. Yeah. Uh , and
12:49
there're tantalizing things that we see
12:52
with our eyes each and every day
12:54
that take our focus and
12:57
that sometimes even lie to us and say,
13:01
that's not glorious. Jesus. I
13:03
am. Oh , that brings
13:05
me to another question. So I saw , oh , okay
13:08
. Like serious come . So this , so this
13:10
, uh , I , I think I might have sent you
13:12
the video, this , uh , Muslim devout
13:14
, Muslim, Muslim , like not the
13:16
, um , nation
13:19
. Yeah . Not nation , no Muslim Muslim. He
13:21
was saying that , um , one , some of the differences between
13:23
, uh , was
13:26
, is Islam and Christianity
13:29
is that with the women covering up
13:31
and the men, you know , how , how they dress
13:34
is to keep the distractions down.
13:37
Mm-hmm <affirmative> . So we look at them crazy for the women having
13:39
to dress up mm-hmm <affirmative> , but in their eyes, they're
13:41
looking at, if, if I marry this woman
13:43
and she's dressed up and the only time that I get
13:45
to see her undresses me being
13:47
married in her , in our room together,
13:50
then I won't get distracted by the
13:52
social media, the women outside
13:54
that are, I don't want that dress.
13:56
However they want to dress. Mm-hmm <affirmative> so
13:58
what you just said, just resonate with me is everything
14:01
in this world is distracting. So how do you feel about the
14:03
way that Muslim,
14:07
the Muslim society? Do
14:09
you think that there's a connection between the two? Yeah,
14:11
so I , I think, okay. All
14:13
of us are, I think at
14:18
some level we all know that we
14:21
are susceptible to distractions
14:24
that there's something better out there, but
14:27
there's something in us that is
14:29
keeping us from being able to
14:31
get that something out there. Yeah. So
14:34
I think there's two, that's two problems.
14:36
We've note . Uh , and so
14:38
classically, we would say the first problem internally
14:42
is , is us or whatever, you know,
14:44
sin, whatever the word people want
14:46
to use sin. Right. And then , uh
14:49
, then externally the problem is
14:52
I can't find what I'm looking for. If
14:54
I'm looking for a one of one . Right.
14:58
But everything in me says
15:01
it , it says there is
15:03
no one of one out there. Just do whatever it
15:05
is that you're doing. You got two problems. One I
15:07
need to be , I need somebody to help
15:10
me internally. And
15:12
then I need somebody to show me the
15:15
one of one externally. So
15:18
see, to me, I think the issue with the Muslims
15:21
and all of us is we
15:23
try to solve our problems with,
15:26
with solutions that can't keep
15:28
us. Right. So
15:30
I , I , I'm sitting here, I'm , I'm watching
15:32
this, you know, and I'm like, oh, okay,
15:35
well, if I do X, Y, and Z, then I won't
15:37
be distracted. But then , but then
15:39
the problem is, and I
15:41
think this is where Christianity comes in. Okay. This
15:44
is , we need divine intervention.
15:47
I need somebody to come in, remake
15:49
me, right. Or
15:52
regenerate me or renew
15:54
me or make me a new man.
15:57
I new woman, whatever, like, cuz
15:59
my heart is desperately wicked. And
16:02
no matter what I try to do, I
16:05
try to do to change it. Nothing happens.
16:08
Right. Or, you know, and
16:10
you , you you've heard in some of those cultures,
16:12
there's a lot of abuse. Mm-hmm <affirmative> it it's
16:14
undercover, but it ain't. Right.
16:17
So all you'd really do is you push the
16:20
abuse underground versus Hey
16:23
Lord, I need help. I
16:26
I'm a sinner. Change me,
16:28
remake me. And , and so John
16:31
talks about the new birth experience that
16:33
happens from the inside out rather
16:35
than from the outside in . So then
16:38
now I can see that
16:40
there's something that is one
16:43
of one out there that no
16:46
other human being is . And notice
16:48
I don't, I count Jesus as a human,
16:50
no other human being can meet except
16:53
Jesus Christ. The , the
16:55
God man . And so I think
16:57
you gotta have that two point process. We
17:08
were going back full circle with , uh
17:10
, needing divine intervention to get,
17:13
get , hold against cuz instead of looking for the
17:15
worldly things that will help fill
17:17
that void, like the LUS,
17:20
the affection, the, the
17:23
looks that we're looking for in our partner
17:25
, stuff like that. So we need Christ to, to
17:28
renew us, make us new so
17:30
that we can see that he's the most glorious. So
17:33
he is the most glorious thing that
17:35
, that , that we, we can have. I
17:38
mean , uh, uh
17:40
, listen , um, if
17:42
I put , uh , a
17:45
Ford TAUs in the , in
17:48
a Bentley Azu in front
17:50
of you now you automatically
17:53
know which car to
17:55
pick, but if
17:57
you were seven years old, you
18:00
might not know cuz
18:03
you would just look at two cars. You , you
18:05
might pick the tourist , right. Might pick the
18:07
it's a chance that you might pick the tours because
18:10
at seven you don't have the,
18:13
you don't have the knowledge probably
18:16
never driven before you
18:18
kind of just learning about cars or whatnot
18:20
. And you
18:22
might pick the tours , but when your
18:24
eyes have been open and
18:28
you have an appreciation, that's
18:31
when you see a Bentley and
18:33
a tourists together, you are 10 outta
18:35
10 going pick the tours . Yeah . See
18:38
when God, and this is
18:40
divine intervention. This is actually when
18:42
people come to faith, he
18:44
takes them from seven olds to
18:47
adults. He opens their eyes so
18:49
that they can see that, that
18:51
Bentley of a life that
18:53
he has. And if you look at that Bentley, let's say that Bentley
18:56
is Jesus. Okay. I hate to objectify
18:58
Jesus, but it is the only way I could , I
19:00
, this is how I , this is how I think if
19:03
, if you see that, that, that Bitly
19:06
and uh, uh , you
19:08
can appreciate it. But before he
19:11
does his work in our heart, you're
19:14
blind to it. John nine talks about
19:16
the man who was born blind. Like we
19:18
were all born blind and
19:20
it takes Jesus to
19:23
open our eyes. So that now when we look
19:27
it's irresistible, when you see,
19:29
see him for who he is, you're going to choose
19:31
him 10 outta 10 times. Right?
19:34
And so I think this is the process.
19:37
You know, this is gone from Mary to
19:39
this, but I think that's, that's literally, I think
19:41
what happens. We idolize the
19:44
TAUs marriage, right? Because
19:47
we think it's the ultimate. But
19:49
until somebody helps us to see in somebody
19:51
being, Jesus helps us to see that
19:54
know there's a Bentley standing right next to it.
19:56
We will not , we will always put the
19:58
way the God head on the marriage
20:01
situation and run
20:03
that little towards ragged and run that and
20:05
run that towards ragged and
20:08
then do then go and then complain
20:11
that , and then go by a new car, right? Another
20:14
TAs and run it ragged another
20:16
TA versus
20:19
me seeing , okay, wait, this,
20:21
this, this can't sustain
20:24
me. Me. This
20:27
can so that if
20:29
God blesses me to have this
20:32
other situation, this my situation,
20:35
I , I , I can tell I , I can, instead
20:37
of the tool, that's what I was saying. Instead
20:40
of the tool using me, I
20:43
can use a tool for the Gloria guide . Okay.
20:47
So this opens up many
20:49
dimensions of questions for me because
20:52
when you use, so
20:54
if we were to, I
20:57
can't honestly say that I'm pursuing marriage
21:00
and this is my safe space. So y'all just have
21:02
to deal with it. I can't honestly say that I'm a
21:04
hundred percent pursuing marriage for
21:07
Christ. Right? So with,
21:10
with what you've been saying, it's making me think about,
21:13
so how do you actually ch
21:16
cause when you're looking at cars, you look, whatever
21:19
fit , whatever the card looks like is
21:22
what attracts me to it. Are
21:24
we doing it wrong? The way that we're looking for
21:27
a relationship? Are we, are
21:30
we looking too much into our natural
21:34
feelings and inclinations to,
21:36
to pick up a partner? I , I just
21:38
think that we, we
21:41
are making, when you make
21:43
something ultimate, like
21:46
do or die. Yeah. You
21:48
put everything on it versus
21:53
yo I'm F I have a found , well,
21:55
hopefully I'm have a growing foundation
21:58
in Christ. So that then
22:00
I'm trying to figure out how
22:03
can you know who okay. So then when
22:05
we pick it is sometimes we're
22:07
asking the wrong questions. Okay.
22:10
The question probably we should ask is yo,
22:15
is this person somebody
22:18
I can glorify God with? Versus
22:22
is this person somebody who
22:24
is here solely to meet my
22:27
needs, two different things. See
22:30
Jesus is here to meet your needs. Right?
22:35
Our , our marriage is to help praise
22:38
Jesus. Yeah. And I
22:40
just think it's perspective. Yeah. But,
22:42
but , but you can't get that perspective if
22:45
your needs ain't being met. Oh
22:49
, you dropping some heavy stuff today. That's
22:51
crazy. This is the only episode one. You gotta relax. I
22:54
, I , I really , really, we was just
22:56
supposed to do just 30 . We were supposed to
22:58
just do 30 minutes of me thought through 30 minutes to be done . But,
23:01
but no, I mean, if you , if you , if
23:03
you think about it, like, and , and so that's what I
23:06
, I think God is , you know, I , uh
23:08
, Piper has , it said, God is most glorified.
23:11
Yeah. Um , when we are most
23:13
satisfied in him, like, yo
23:16
, yo , you
23:19
are your, your, your needs are
23:22
things that the
23:25
, you know, of
23:27
course, some of , some of 'em , you know, oh,
23:30
I need a Bentley. Well, I mean, you know, you
23:33
want a Bentley, you want , do you need, do
23:35
you need a Bentley, but your basic need,
23:38
your basic God shape . Vacuum is,
23:41
is something that Jesus meets. So
23:44
that then instead, again, instead
23:46
of the tools using you, you
23:48
can use the tools for the glory of God. So
23:53
should we even be sorry, y'all
23:55
, I'm kind of like black and white with it
23:57
Uhhuh . So should we even be looking for relationships until
24:00
we can, until we have some
24:02
kind of sense that God is satisfying
24:04
our needs. I , I think there's wisdom, right.
24:08
B but I , I , I don't think there's
24:10
a one size fits all . Cuz some people get
24:13
married and they figured out why they get married. Right.
24:16
Some people wait and
24:19
you know, they, you
24:22
know, go to school,
24:24
buy a house, do you know? And then they
24:26
get married. But I do think there's some wisdom.
24:30
Cause in asking the
24:32
question, what is it
24:34
that I am looking for in
24:37
this person? Am, am
24:41
I looking for, you
24:43
know, am I really just looking for
24:45
God? And this person is, is,
24:48
is, is somebody that I'm thinking can
24:50
give me God. Or, and
24:53
if that's the case, then you know, I think
24:55
you are at a place where man,
24:58
and I've been there, you know, where
25:00
I'm like, okay, wait, I feel unbalanced.
25:03
I feel like I'm
25:06
leaning too heavily on food
25:10
or leaning too heavily on whatever,
25:12
you know, and why
25:14
is that? Uh , because
25:17
I maybe deep down inside,
25:20
I don't feel
25:22
the satisfaction of knowing that
25:25
I am , uh,
25:28
accepted in the beloved that I am
25:30
grounded in who he is. And so, you
25:32
know, life gets outta balance. And so
25:35
man, I just, I just think you gotta ask those questions.
25:38
Those are questions you ask while
25:40
you ask, is this the person? Could
25:42
you list the questions again? <laugh> is
25:45
there , is there a few questions that okay, so yeah. Well
25:48
I would say one, what is it that I'm
25:50
looking for in a person? Yeah . Right . Uh
25:52
, or what is it that I'm looking for? The person. Yeah. What
25:55
is it that I'm looking for in a person can
25:57
sometimes help you determine what is it
25:59
that you're looking for? Period. Mm-hmm <affirmative>, you know, if
26:01
it's, you know,
26:05
and sometimes we have these unrealistic
26:09
standards or expectations that we're looking for,
26:11
people mm-hmm <affirmative> and what
26:13
you realize is that
26:16
thing that you need is
26:19
something that no, no other human other
26:21
than Jesus can meet. Mm-hmm <affirmative>. And
26:24
so once you get, once you get there, I
26:26
think the next question then is , um,
26:32
just escape me. The
26:34
, the next question is , uh,
26:38
if this is the person , uh,
26:42
I think you gotta , so I guess
26:44
if I broke this down as a man, what
26:47
is your vision? What is God's vision
26:49
for your life? Uh,
26:53
how does he best want you to
26:55
, um,
27:00
how does he best want you to use
27:03
his resources for his
27:05
glory ? And when you're able to answer
27:07
that question, then you could say, well,
27:12
is this person somebody that
27:16
can come alongside me as
27:18
a helpmate to fulfill this vision, you
27:21
know, versus,
27:25
okay, I'm just, you know, I'm
27:27
going through going with the flow . Like, and , and
27:30
I also wanna say this God's
27:32
grace is sufficient. He can
27:34
do anything with, with anybody.
27:38
So, so we need the cheat
27:40
code is never what you can do. The
27:42
cheat code is yo Jesus
27:45
makes miracles happen all the time
27:47
and he can take messed up situations
27:50
and make beautiful things out of
27:52
it. I , the , the questions
27:54
are more so like guidelines. Yo, if you
27:57
are in the situation and you're thinking about it, these are
27:59
some things to ask. I
28:02
mean, they , uh , if anything,
28:04
I learned Uhhuh quite a bit in
28:06
just the little time that we, we have. I
28:08
hope, I hope that everybody else got a piece
28:10
of picked up one of the jewels that you dropped.
28:13
Okay. Because you dropped quite a few
28:15
and it , I have some pondering to do when I
28:17
get home To
28:19
make sure.
