1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:14.280
We're going to be doing more and more fun phase three sessions with spotlights and dating

2
00:00:14.280 --> 00:00:19.760
games and even online shuffles and different things where you will have the opportunity

3
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:24.480
to meet the men and women that are part of the last year, single community and family.

4
00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:28.560
Some of them are part of the program last year, single first phase one, two, and three.

5
00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:34.320
Some of them are private clients and some of them are people that are part of other

6
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.480
programs and different things that we have going on.

7
00:00:37.480 --> 00:00:42.040
And so you're going to see a lot of new faces and I'm excited about that guys.

8
00:00:42.040 --> 00:00:48.480
I had another guy from my guys group get engaged over the weekend.

9
00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:55.140
And so very excited to announce that those guys are popping like popcorn over there.

10
00:00:55.140 --> 00:00:58.380
And so very excited to announce that.

11
00:00:58.380 --> 00:01:02.060
And you know, he had, he had a lot of moving pieces.

12
00:01:02.060 --> 00:01:03.340
Let me say it that way.

13
00:01:03.340 --> 00:01:06.460
So for those of you that feel like you're disqualified from a love story, because you

14
00:01:06.460 --> 00:01:10.140
have a lot of moving pieces, I want to tell you, it's not true.

15
00:01:10.140 --> 00:01:11.780
He'd been divorced.

16
00:01:11.780 --> 00:01:18.020
He had an unfortunate story with that, that a lot of people probably would have dismissed

17
00:01:18.020 --> 00:01:24.260
him or disqualified him because of but it wasn't, it wasn't anything he could control.

18
00:01:24.380 --> 00:01:26.620
And so he had that going on.

19
00:01:26.620 --> 00:01:34.100
He had some, from some odd dynamics with his former spouse, that is the mother of children,

20
00:01:34.100 --> 00:01:39.660
more than one child, older children, and in lots of them that he was the sole proprietor,

21
00:01:39.660 --> 00:01:41.540
the sole provider for.

22
00:01:41.540 --> 00:01:45.420
And so just lots of things that a lot of you ladies, even though you're like, Oh, all I

23
00:01:45.420 --> 00:01:47.140
want is to be married.

24
00:01:47.140 --> 00:01:53.700
A lot of you would be turned off by some of those, some of those details simply because

25
00:01:54.140 --> 00:01:55.140
Sounds like a lot of work.

26
00:01:55.140 --> 00:01:57.540
That sounds like a lot of trouble.

27
00:01:57.540 --> 00:02:00.460
That sounds like something I don't want to sign up for.

28
00:02:00.460 --> 00:02:01.780
And I get it.

29
00:02:01.780 --> 00:02:03.020
I understand.

30
00:02:03.020 --> 00:02:09.100
And I remember thinking after I got married to David that man, blending a family sounded

31
00:02:09.100 --> 00:02:10.100
so easy.

32
00:02:10.100 --> 00:02:15.500
And yet now it is not, it is not.

33
00:02:15.500 --> 00:02:19.980
And I want to let you know that we are here for you and we are blended family experts.

34
00:02:19.980 --> 00:02:20.980
What does that mean?

35
00:02:21.020 --> 00:02:26.180
We've walked through the fire with gasoline underwear on, and we have survived.

36
00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:29.140
And so we know how to help you survive as well.

37
00:02:29.140 --> 00:02:35.020
And we have so many beautiful partners and affiliates that have marriage ministries and

38
00:02:35.020 --> 00:02:38.100
blended family ministries and blended family plans.

39
00:02:38.100 --> 00:02:42.540
And then I believe that God has given us grace and anointing as well to speak into that.

40
00:02:42.540 --> 00:02:46.080
So if you are in a serious relationship and you want to make sure that you are prepared

41
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.000
for anything and everything that can come at you in a possible engagement or marriage,

42
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.320
you definitely want to take our Simba's classes is a plug for our Simba's S Y M B I S it stands

43
00:02:56.320 --> 00:02:58.760
for save your marriage before it starts.

44
00:02:58.760 --> 00:03:03.400
Most people that come through this program that get engaged because of the teaching and

45
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:07.360
the coaching and matchmaking that happens here do take our Simba's or they take the

46
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:10.640
equivalent through their own church or spiritual community.

47
00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:14.280
And it is a game changer, but I will say this about our Simba's.

48
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:15.600
We get into the nitty gritty.

49
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:20.920
We get into things that you're probably not going to have other dating or I'm sorry, other

50
00:03:20.920 --> 00:03:26.880
premarital coaches actually get into because we know that there's a lot of bombs that we

51
00:03:26.880 --> 00:03:33.480
want to defuse before they go off and explode and destroy a potential beautiful marriage.

52
00:03:33.480 --> 00:03:34.800
And so we're going to help you do that.

53
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.400
And we have a lot of fun, you know, if it's not fun, I don't want to do it.

54
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:39.880
So there's a lot of fun as well.

55
00:03:39.880 --> 00:03:40.880
Right.

56
00:03:40.880 --> 00:03:43.040
So father God, I thank you, Lord, for this community.

57
00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:44.640
I thank you for tonight.

58
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:49.120
I thank you for all of these single men and women, your sons and daughters, and for the

59
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.080
matches that you have for them.

60
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:56.880
I thank you, Lord, that hearts are open and that we are allowing you, Lord, to to help

61
00:03:56.880 --> 00:04:02.360
us to be drawn towards and be attracted to the things that are best for us and the people

62
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:07.160
that are best for us as far in the area of partnership and all of the beautiful things

63
00:04:07.160 --> 00:04:12.000
that you have for our future complementary opposites, because we are better together.

64
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.640
And we ask that tonight and let's have fun in Jesus name.

65
00:04:15.640 --> 00:04:16.640
All right.

66
00:04:16.640 --> 00:04:21.360
So you guys, this new single spotlight thing we're going to do, we usually pair that with

67
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:25.920
ask Jackie or love seats, which is my dating coaching session, but we're not going to do

68
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:27.240
that tonight.

69
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.320
All spotlights all the time.

70
00:04:29.320 --> 00:04:30.320
Okay.

71
00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:32.520
And so we're going to go ahead and let ladies go first.

72
00:04:32.520 --> 00:04:35.400
So guys, I know that you're here and you're ready, but we're going to let our ladies go

73
00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:40.600
first for those ladies that are like, Hey, how come those ladies get to be spotlighted?

74
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:45.040
Because in your phase three group, there was a post that was featured in the featured

75
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:49.680
section, the marked for announcement section that just said, Hey, we're going to do spotlights

76
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:50.920
on Thursday night.

77
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:54.800
The first 20 women that say, Hey, I'm definitely going to be there.

78
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:59.680
And I'm going to be ready to be spotlighted, are going to be chosen for this go around.

79
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:00.680
And so

80
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.160
That's how these 20 ladies got chosen, very random.

81
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:00.680


82
00:05:03.200 --> 00:05:07.320
They were first come first serve, but don't forget, this is just the

83
00:05:07.320 --> 00:05:09.280

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:44.320
would call the peanut gallery.

98
00:05:44.760 --> 00:05:47.780
For those of you that are just in the general population tonight,

99
00:05:47.780 --> 00:05:48.920
you're not being spotlighted.

100

And if you're, um, in some fun fact about you.

Okay.

And so without further ado, our first spotlight is beautiful.

106
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:09.800
Rachel.

107
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:11.880
All right, Rachel, you're up.

00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:12.400
Go ahead.

109
00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:13.400
Tell us about you.

110
00:06:14.580 --> 00:06:14.780
Hello.

111
00:06:14.780 --> 00:06:17.880
My name is Rachel and I am 46 years old.

112
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:19.900

I live in Portland area in Oregon.

114
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:26.320
And, um, a fun fact about me.

115
00:06:27.080 --> 00:06:30.920
Um, I love to cook, but I don't love to cook for myself.

116
00:06:31.320 --> 00:06:35.120
So I love to have my home open for a lot of people.

117
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:40.440
And oftentimes those are teenagers and young adults that are in my house.

118
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:45.760
Um, my kids have told me that because I, because I went to Bible school, all the

119
00:06:45.760 --> 00:06:49.760
kids like to congregate at my house and talk Bible and theology, so I feed them

120
00:06:49.760 --> 00:06:52.640
good food and we talk Bible theology.

121
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:54.560
I love it.

122
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:55.880

I'm 59 years old and I live in South Florida.

135
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:39.000
Um, one fun fact about me is, um, I've always had a dream, um,

136
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:40.600
to write a children's book.

137
00:07:40.880 --> 00:07:43.880
And so this summer, that's exactly what I did.

138
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:49.520
Um, it was inspired, uh, by Jackie Dorman and, uh, the name of

139
00:07:49.520 --> 00:07:51.720
the book is one can, but two can't.

140
00:07:52.520 --> 00:07:52.880
No.

141
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:53.720
Oh, I love it.

142
00:07:53.960 --> 00:07:55.240
Can't put two cans.

143
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:55.640
Sorry.

144
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:57.280
I did it.

145
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:00.000
That's such a fun fact.

146
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:00.560
I love that.

147
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:01.920
I need a copy of that book.

148
00:08:02.320 --> 00:08:03.240
Yes, for sure.

149
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:04.280
Okay.

150
00:08:04.280 --> 00:08:04.800

I'm trying to get it.

161
00:08:27.880 --> 00:08:28.320
Hello.

00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:29.920
I see myself.

163
00:08:29.960 --> 00:08:35.000
Um, yeah, I don't know how that happened unless someone else is spotlighting.

164
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:36.400
Maybe someone else is doing it.

165
00:08:36.400 --> 00:08:37.360
Cause I didn't do it.

166
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:37.760
Okay.

167
00:08:37.760 --> 00:08:37.960
Right.

168
00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:38.520
Go ahead.

169
00:08:38.520 --> 00:08:38.880
Go for it.

170
00:08:38.880 --> 00:08:39.200
Okay.

171
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:40.919
So, so my name is Cheryl.

172
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:42.400
I'm 55.

173
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:44.640
I live in Colorado, Colorado.

174
00:08:45.160 --> 00:08:48.520
I'm actually originally from the Pacific Northwest.

175
00:08:48.640 --> 00:08:54.520
Um, so I'm definitely an outdoor kind of gal love, love the mountains, love the

176
00:08:54.520 --> 00:09:00.200
water, but I think just a fun, fascinating fact is I have a little bit of an

177
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:06.680
adventurous heart that has led me places that has made my life a lot richer.

178
00:09:06.680 --> 00:09:12.440
And one of those is I actually, my twenties went to Kiev Ukraine and I lived there.

179
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:14.920
I was a missionary there for almost two years.

180
00:09:14.920 --> 00:09:19.440
And so, and when I say adventurous, I don't mean like a daredevil, like I

181
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:23.920
won't jump out of a plane or anything, but, but I do have that heart that just

182
00:09:23.920 --> 00:09:28.360
kind of spurs me on into things that I'm super thankful because it's

183
00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:29.560
made my life a lot richer.

184
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:30.920
So fun.

185
00:09:30.920 --> 00:09:32.920
So she has an adventurous spirit guys.

186
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:37.320
And so if you are a couch potato, if you're a spud, then you're not for her.

187
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:40.480
So Cheryl with a C and she is in Colorado.

188
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:44.120
And so if you want to know more about her, you can email us once

189
00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:46.280
again, put Cheryl in the subject line.

190
00:09:46.280 --> 00:09:47.640
Cheryl, thanks for joining us.

191
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:51.600
That red spot of red there looks beautiful on you on.

192
00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:52.120
Yeah.

193
00:09:52.280 --> 00:09:53.480
One of my faves on.

194
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:53.840
Yeah.

195
00:09:53.880 --> 00:09:57.120
Tell us, tell us all about good evening.

196
00:09:57.160 --> 00:09:59.720
So I'm on, yeah, I'm 42 years old.

197
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:07.760
Um, and I am originally from Germany, but I now live in Oxford in the UK and have done

198
00:10:07.760 --> 00:10:11.080
since the last 16 years, uh, I'm, I've never been married.

199
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:17.000
I have no children, um, and a, it was called a fascinating fact about myself.

200
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:23.240
Um, there's a lot, so you have to find out more about one is, uh, I like to dance on

201
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:27.720
tall buildings vertically.

202
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:32.760
I feel like you have to explain that maybe just a little bit, people think it's for core

203
00:10:32.760 --> 00:10:33.760
dancing.

204
00:10:33.760 --> 00:10:34.760
Partly.

205
00:10:34.760 --> 00:10:35.760
Yes.

206
00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:36.760
So I do.

207
00:10:36.760 --> 00:10:37.760
Um, I do dance.

208
00:10:37.760 --> 00:10:41.680
I'm, um, I'm a trained performer and I've run a physical theater company as well, and

209
00:10:41.680 --> 00:10:43.680
I love doing aerial dance as well.

210
00:10:43.680 --> 00:10:48.960
And so that involves dancing on buildings, whether that's 30 meter high or six meters,

211
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:49.960
whatever.

212
00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:55.440
Um, but yeah, on, on a rig and I am safe up there, obviously, but enjoy, I enjoy being

213
00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:58.080
in different, um, yeah.

214
00:10:58.080 --> 00:10:59.080
Perspectives.

215
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:00.080
Let's say.

216
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:01.080
Yes.

217
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:02.080

Oh, that purple's gorgeous.

229
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:31.600
All right.

230
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:32.600
Crystal.

231
00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:33.600
I'm sold.

232
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:38.600
I am in field Ohio right now.

233
00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:42.600
Um, I don't have any children and I've never been married.

234
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:49.600
A fun fact about myself is that I ate a tarantula while living in Cambodia.

235
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:50.600
Nope.

236
00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:51.600
Nope.

237
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:52.600
Nope.

238
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:53.600
Nope.

239
00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:54.600
Nope.

240
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:55.600
Nope.

241
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:56.600
Nope.

242
00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:57.600
Was it cooked?

243
00:11:57.600 --> 00:11:58.600
Yeah, it was deep fried.

244
00:11:58.600 --> 00:11:59.600
Oh, I mean, anything can be deep fried.

245
00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:00.600
Right.

246
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:01.600
It can be.

247
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:02.600
Let me guess.

248
00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:03.600
It tasted like chicken.

249
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:04.600
Ish.

250
00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:10.720
Like the legs were kind of like French fry ish in the body would be like chicken.

251
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:17.640
All right, you guys, she's adventurous and she's, uh, she's well-traveled and she actually

252
00:12:17.640 --> 00:12:23.560
is a, uh, an administrator and a teacher and a coach and a counselor and all different

253
00:12:23.560 --> 00:12:24.740
types of things.

254
00:12:24.740 --> 00:12:28.680
She is in my home state of O H I O national champs.

255
00:12:28.680 --> 00:12:30.280
Come on everybody.

256
00:12:30.280 --> 00:12:35.080
And if you want to meet her crystal with a C, you can go ahead and email us and we would

All right.

259
00:12:37.680 --> 00:12:38.680
Thank you so much.

260
00:12:38.680 --> 00:12:42.120
Crystal wasn't expecting that tarantula thing.

261
00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:43.120
That's awesome.

262
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:44.120
Okay.

263
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:47.680
And her husband is probably scarred for life because he can't even look at a picture of

264
00:12:47.680 --> 00:12:48.680
a spider.

265
00:12:48.680 --> 00:12:49.680
All right.

266
00:12:49.680 --> 00:12:50.680
Okay.

267
00:12:50.680 --> 00:12:51.680
Who is up next?

268
00:12:51.680 --> 00:12:52.680

269
00:12:52.680 --> 00:12:54.160

We have Juliana.

271
00:12:55.160 --> 00:12:56.160

272
00:12:56.160 --> 00:12:57.160
Yes.

273
00:12:57.160 --> 00:12:58.160
Is that who's spotlighted right now?

274
00:12:58.160 --> 00:12:59.160
Sorry.

275
00:12:59.160 --> 00:13:00.160
I can't see.

276
00:13:00.160 --> 00:13:01.160
Emily Blair.

277
00:13:01.160 --> 00:13:02.160
Yeah.

278
00:13:02.160 --> 00:13:03.160
It's Emily.

279
00:13:03.160 --> 00:13:04.160
Okay.

280
00:13:04.160 --> 00:13:05.160
Emily.

281
00:13:05.160 --> 00:13:06.160
Sorry about that.

282
00:13:06.160 --> 00:13:07.160
Emily.

283
00:13:07.160 --> 00:13:08.160
Go ahead.

284
00:13:08.160 --> 00:13:09.160
Introduce yourself.

285
00:13:09.160 --> 00:13:10.160
How are you?

286
00:13:10.160 --> 00:13:11.160
Hey everybody.

287
00:13:11.160 --> 00:13:12.160
I'm Emily.

288
00:13:13.160 --> 00:13:16.880
I'm 43 and I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

289
00:13:16.880 --> 00:13:19.280
No children, never married.

290
00:13:19.280 --> 00:13:22.600
I guess a fun and fascinating fact about me.

291
00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:25.440
I really love to learn and experience new things.

292
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:30.960
So something I do every year is plan a big international trip and I've had a lot of cool

293
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:34.160
adventures but I also try to always learn something when I go.

294
00:13:34.160 --> 00:13:38.240
So I've done things like learn how to surf, learn how to cook different things in the

295
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:45.120
local cultures, take language classes, always trying new and different things when I travel.

296
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:46.120
I love that.

297
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:49.720
I actually might know someone to introduce you to.

298
00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:53.480
Let me write it down because when I say that in these live sessions, I always forget who

299
00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:55.280
I'm talking about later.

300
00:13:55.280 --> 00:13:56.280
Okay.

301
00:13:56.280 --> 00:13:57.280
So awesome.

302
00:13:57.280 --> 00:13:58.280
All right.

303
00:13:58.280 --> 00:13:59.280
Thank you so much, Emily.

304
00:13:59.280 --> 00:14:00.280
Great.

305
00:14:00.280 --> 00:14:01.280
All right.

306
00:14:01.280 --> 00:14:06.880
If you guys want to meet Emily, E-M-I-L-Y.

307
00:14:06.880 --> 00:14:08.520
E-M-I-L-L-S.

308
00:14:08.520 --> 00:14:11.000
Make sure you include that bio in those pictures.

309
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:15.840
Otherwise, we're just going to put your inquiry in the trash.

310
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:16.840
Okay.

311
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:19.880
So we need that and we're not going to go hunting for it.

312
00:14:19.880 --> 00:14:21.000
All right.

313
00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:22.000
Next up, beautiful Joy.

314
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:23.000
Hi, Joy.

315
00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:24.000
Can you hear me?

316
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:25.000
Yes, we can hear you.

317
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:31.000
Go ahead and introduce yourself and tell us that fun fact.

318
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:36.080
Hi, my name is Joy Wichert and I'm 49.

319
00:14:36.280 --> 00:14:42.000
I'm from Atlanta, Georgia, and I've never been married and never had kids.

320
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:50.960
I do volunteer at my church with the teens, so I'm surrounded by teens on the weekends.

321
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:58.960
The fun fact about me, though, is I worked for the Braves for seven years.

322
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:02.680
Um, from 2008 to 2014.

323
00:15:03.520 --> 00:15:07.320
And, um, I want to leave you with a little cliffhanger.

324
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:17.600
If you, um, Google, uh, Braves and, um, guy in a wedding dress, there's

325
00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:20.160
an interesting story I can tell you about that if you'd like to hear.

326
00:15:21.760 --> 00:15:25.520
All right, you guys Google Braves and guy in wedding dress.

327
00:15:25.560 --> 00:15:28.160
I really, I'm going to Google that tonight because I want to

328
00:15:28.160 --> 00:15:29.520
know what that's all about.

329
00:15:30.040 --> 00:15:32.760
Way to leave us with a little intrigue there, joy.

330
00:15:32.760 --> 00:15:33.760
That's awesome.

331
00:15:33.760 --> 00:15:35.200
Thank you so much for joining us.

332
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:36.440
You guys are good at this.

333
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:39.480
All right, Julianna, you are up.

334
00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:41.840
Hi there, Julianna.

335
00:15:42.880 --> 00:15:43.600

I'm 33.

339
00:15:51.280 --> 00:15:56.440
Um, I love to travel and I have been, my interesting fact is I've been to one of

340
00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:01.280
the ancient wonders of the world and one of the new seven wonders of the world.

341
00:16:01.800 --> 00:16:05.720
So I've been to the Taj Mahal, um, in Agra, India, and I've been to the

342
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:08.440
temple of Artemis, um, in Ephesus, Turkey.

343
00:16:09.160 --> 00:16:09.920
Wow.

344
00:16:09.960 --> 00:16:11.280
That's amazing.

345
00:16:11.920 --> 00:16:12.680
Love that.

346
00:16:12.760 --> 00:16:14.360
You've how many countries have you been to?

347
00:16:16.040 --> 00:16:18.800
I don't know the exact number I've been to a lot.

348
00:16:18.800 --> 00:16:24.200
So I did traveling, um, quite a bit, um, in college and then

349
00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:25.800
I've done a lot of cruises.

350
00:16:26.040 --> 00:16:27.760
So I've done, I've been to China.

351
00:16:27.760 --> 00:16:31.160
I've been to India, Turkey, Greece, Italy.

352
00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:35.320
Um, a lot of the Caribbean, Alaska.

353
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:37.200
I lived in California for a year.

354
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:42.520
So that country of California, you know, what was your favorite?

355
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:48.280
Um, I really liked we, when we were in Venice, we went to the island of

356
00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:52.960
Verano, uh, which if you've seen the really pretty like houses that are all

357
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:56.880
bright colors, um, and we went to where they make lace there and it was just

358
00:16:56.880 --> 00:17:00.960
very calm and peaceful and it just was lovely.

359
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:02.680
Sounds lovely.

360
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:04.720
Well, Juliana, we're glad to have you.

361
00:17:04.800 --> 00:17:11.440
If you want to meet Juliana, J U L I A N N A, go ahead and email us and we

362
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:13.560
would love to help connect you to her.

363
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:14.240
All right.

364
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:16.160
Next up we have Julie.

365
00:17:17.760 --> 00:17:18.599
Welcome Julie.

366
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:22.400
Oh, you're muted or something.

367
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:22.839
Yep.

368
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:23.280
You're muted.

369
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:27.040
What about now?

370
00:17:27.400 --> 00:17:28.040
You're not yet.

371
00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:28.600
You're good.

372
00:17:28.800 --> 00:17:29.240
Okay.

373
00:17:29.520 --> 00:17:30.520
I'm Julie.

374
00:17:30.560 --> 00:17:36.200
I am 37 years young and I live in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, which is

375
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:38.920
about two hours West of Philly.

376
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:46.160
And an interesting fact is, um, the summer of 2020 in the middle of COVID, I

377
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:51.440
packed everything I owned in South Carolina into a box truck and I moved

378
00:17:51.600 --> 00:17:55.560
550 miles to Pennsylvania to revamp my life.

379
00:17:55.600 --> 00:17:59.760
And I absolutely love the North and I'm so glad that I did.

380
00:18:00.760 --> 00:18:01.720
That's so awesome.

381
00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:06.520
How about it's that's very brave of you and adventurous and I love it.

382
00:18:06.840 --> 00:18:10.800
And so if you guys want to meet Julie, you can meet her by emailing us and

383
00:18:10.800 --> 00:18:15.240
putting Julie in the subject line and we will make that introduction.

384
00:18:15.600 --> 00:18:16.480
Thank you so much.

385
00:18:16.520 --> 00:18:16.760
All right.

386
00:18:16.760 --> 00:18:18.680
We have another Texas girl here.

387
00:18:21.840 --> 00:18:24.320
Sorry guys, a little technical difficulty.

388
00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:25.760
All right.

389
00:18:26.040 --> 00:18:28.880
Um, Hmm.

390
00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:31.920
It's not giving me the option to spotlight you, Lily.

391
00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:32.840
Are you on camera?

392
00:18:34.120 --> 00:18:35.400
Yeah, I am now.

393
00:18:36.080 --> 00:18:36.400
Okay.

394
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:36.800
You are now.

395
00:18:36.800 --> 00:18:37.240
Let me see.

396
00:18:37.520 --> 00:18:37.920
There we go.

397
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:39.120
All right.

398
00:18:39.120 --> 00:18:41.880
Lily is up right here in DFW.

399
00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:45.400
Hey, I just moved to Fort Worth from Weatherford.

400
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:46.240
I sold my ranch.

401
00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:47.320
I'm 52.

402
00:18:47.560 --> 00:18:48.520
I'm an empty nester.

403
00:18:48.520 --> 00:18:50.320
My, both of my children are adults.

404
00:18:50.840 --> 00:18:52.720
And I'm a lifelong horsewoman.

405
00:18:53.280 --> 00:18:58.640
So I come as a package deal with four legs and mine, not her four legs.

406
00:18:58.640 --> 00:19:03.520
She's only how many, how, when you say horsewomen, just explain

407
00:19:03.520 --> 00:19:04.800
a little bit of what that means.

408
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:10.080
I trained horses professionally for 20 years on the East coast from

409
00:19:10.080 --> 00:19:11.520
New York to Florida, competing them.

410
00:19:11.520 --> 00:19:16.360
And then now I'm, um, like an amateur non-pro and I purchased

411
00:19:16.360 --> 00:19:17.960
a rating horse in September.

412
00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:21.160
So I'll be competing her in the national running horse association

413
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:25.080
shows in Texas, Oklahoma, uh, kind of regionally where I am.

414
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:27.200
So exciting.

415
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:27.720
All right.

416
00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:32.160
If you want to meet Lily and you're interested in, um, knowing more about

417
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:35.360
what it means to be a horsewoman, you can put her in the subject line of

418
00:19:35.360 --> 00:19:39.880
your email, L I L L Y, and we would love to make that introduction for her.

419
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:46.560
I know Lily and I can vouch that she is so much fun and you definitely, if

420
00:19:46.560 --> 00:19:48.600
you live in that area, want to take her on a date.

421
00:19:49.120 --> 00:19:49.520
All right.

422
00:19:49.520 --> 00:19:51.520
Let's see who we got next.

423
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:54.520
Um, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.

424
00:19:55.120 --> 00:19:59.240
And I have Catherine get ready for the spotlight.

425
00:19:59.400 --> 00:19:59.760
Oh, hi.

426
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.000
Catherine, that green is gorgeous.

427
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:03.960
Tell us all about you.

428
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:06.640
Well, hi, I'm Catherine and I am from

429
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:09.320
the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

430
00:20:09.320 --> 00:20:12.840
I am 32 years old and I have never been married

431
00:20:12.840 --> 00:20:15.080
and I don't have any kids.

432
00:20:15.080 --> 00:20:17.980
Like a lot of other people, I love to travel.

433
00:20:17.980 --> 00:20:20.280
I'm an adventurous person

434
00:20:20.280 --> 00:20:25.280
and one of my favorite adventures happened in Norway.

435
00:20:25.320 --> 00:20:27.800
I went on a hike called Jroltunga

436
00:20:27.840 --> 00:20:30.360
where I got to experience every season.

437
00:20:30.360 --> 00:20:33.560
Started out really hot and ended up snowing,

438
00:20:33.560 --> 00:20:35.160
raining, sleeting, all the things.

439
00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:37.760
It was an amazing adventure I'll never forget.

440
00:20:37.760 --> 00:20:40.240
Wow, in Norway, that sounds beautiful.

441
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:41.680
So she is Catherine with a K.

442
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:43.600
She's also in the DFW area.

443
00:20:43.600 --> 00:20:45.640
And so if you want to know more about Catherine

444
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:47.800
or if you just know someone that Catherine should meet,

445
00:20:47.800 --> 00:20:49.680
that goes for all of these spotlights.

446
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:51.960
You know, maybe you're a lady

447
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:54.600
and you see one of these other ladies spotlighted,

448
00:20:54.600 --> 00:20:56.160
your sister's in this community and you're like,

449
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:58.720
wow, I need to introduce her to my brother or my cousin

450
00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:00.400
or my next door neighbor.

451
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:05.000
Then you also can email in and with that guy's information,

452
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:06.400
with his permission, of course,

453
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:08.720
and we would love to make those introductions.

454
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:11.520
So I felt like I needed to say that for that one.

455
00:21:11.520 --> 00:21:14.040
And so let's make sure that we are

456
00:21:14.040 --> 00:21:15.880
community-based matchmaking friends.

457
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:17.520
That is what we're here to do.

458
00:21:17.520 --> 00:21:20.280
All right, so I have everyone on that list.

459
00:21:20.280 --> 00:21:21.200
Next is Katie.

460
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:22.720
Guys, we have all of these.

461
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:25.480
We got Katie, we had Catherine,

462
00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:27.280
we had Julie and Juliana.

463
00:21:27.280 --> 00:21:29.720
So here is Katie.

464
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:33.880
Hear me?

465
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:35.320
Yes, we can hear you.

466
00:21:35.320 --> 00:21:36.280
Hi, I'm Katie.

467
00:21:36.280 --> 00:21:39.720
I am 39, so I'll be the big 4-0 this year.

468
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:42.800
I'm really, yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

469
00:21:42.800 --> 00:21:44.480
I mean, the transition's a little much,

470
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:46.720
but it's gonna be great.

471
00:21:47.800 --> 00:21:49.840
I have a daughter at home.

472
00:21:49.840 --> 00:21:51.960
I'm in North Central Pennsylvania,

473
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:53.920
so the Williamsport area.

474
00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:58.480
I'm an architect by profession, and I love it.

475
00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:01.080
And let's see, a fun fact.

476
00:22:01.080 --> 00:22:03.040
So I don't own a TV, actually.

477
00:22:03.040 --> 00:22:05.880
I'm not super tech savvy,

478
00:22:05.880 --> 00:22:09.440
and I'm much more kind of like low-key that way.

479
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.320
And in a few weeks, I'm going to El Salvador

480
00:22:13.320 --> 00:22:15.440
with my church on a missions trip.

481
00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:18.200
We're gonna be building housing for women

482
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:20.240
who were rescued from human trafficking.

483
00:22:20.800 --> 00:22:22.960
And then in a few months,

484
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.040
I'm going to Paris with my daughter.

485
00:22:26.040 --> 00:22:29.480
So it's like our first big trip, super excited.

486
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:31.240
Just go big.

487
00:22:31.240 --> 00:22:32.320
Go big.

488
00:22:32.320 --> 00:22:34.040
I love it so much.

489
00:22:34.040 --> 00:22:35.280
So there you have it.

490
00:22:35.280 --> 00:22:39.520
Katie is living up there in Pennsylvania,

491
00:22:39.520 --> 00:22:42.520
and she is single and ready to mingle.

492
00:22:42.520 --> 00:22:45.320
She's got some great things about her there.

493
00:22:45.320 --> 00:22:46.720
If you wanna meet Katie,

494
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:49.760
then make sure that you email us and let us know.

495
00:22:50.560 --> 00:22:51.400
That you wanna meet her.

496
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:54.560
You guys, do I sound like a game show host?

497
00:22:54.560 --> 00:22:56.680
There's a game show out there that's missing their host,

498
00:22:56.680 --> 00:22:58.000
and I think it's me.

499
00:22:58.000 --> 00:22:59.040
I think it's me.

500
00:22:59.040 --> 00:23:00.360
All right, let's go.

501
00:23:00.360 --> 00:23:04.160
Let's go on to Christine from Louisville.

502
00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:05.520
I would say Louisville,

503
00:23:05.520 --> 00:23:07.440
but I have friends that live there,

504
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:10.280
and they're like, Jackie, it's Louisville.

505
00:23:10.280 --> 00:23:11.400
Roll the tongue.

506
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:13.600
That's right.

507
00:23:13.600 --> 00:23:14.600
I'm Christine.

508
00:23:14.600 --> 00:23:16.440
I'm 60 years old.

509
00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:19.280
Hey, wait, girl, you're 60 years old?

510
00:23:19.800 --> 00:23:20.640
I'm 60.

511
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:22.240
Come on, you're looking good.

512
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:23.360
No filters.

513
00:23:23.360 --> 00:23:24.640
No filters, come on.

514
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:31.400
Louisville, Kentucky, Kentucky Derby.

515
00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:33.680
We always have fun.

516
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:39.920
Empty Nester, two grown sons who are both married.

517
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:45.080
God and family mean everything to me.

518
00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:47.800
I love to cook.

519
00:23:47.800 --> 00:23:49.440
I'm Italian.

520
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:51.600
I love to cook for a lot of people.

521
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:58.640
I published my first book about six months ago

522
00:23:59.520 --> 00:24:03.440
about trusting God with everything in your life.

523
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:06.520
So God just led me through it,

524
00:24:06.520 --> 00:24:09.920
and it was amazing.

525
00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:11.360
It's all about God.

526
00:24:11.360 --> 00:24:13.360
So I love to have fun.

527
00:24:13.360 --> 00:24:16.720
I love music, instruments,

528
00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:20.840
just that's about it.

529
00:24:20.840 --> 00:24:21.680
That's a lot.

530
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:23.000
That's a lot of good stuff.

531
00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:24.200
That's Christine, you guys.

532
00:24:24.200 --> 00:24:25.600
That's Christine with a K.

533
00:24:25.600 --> 00:24:28.200
And so if you want to meet Christine with a K,

534
00:24:28.200 --> 00:24:30.200
then email us.

535
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:32.160
Wow, looking good, girl,

536
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:33.480
and got a lot going on there

537
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:34.520
that you should be proud of.

538
00:24:34.520 --> 00:24:36.600
Congratulations for both of you ladies

539
00:24:36.600 --> 00:24:37.560
that just published books.

540
00:24:37.560 --> 00:24:40.400
Congratulations, because I know what that is,

541
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:42.080
and that is a lot of work.

542
00:24:42.080 --> 00:24:44.360
All right, so Lacey is next up.

543
00:24:44.360 --> 00:24:45.400
Lacey in Colorado.

544
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:46.880
Hey there, girl.

545
00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:47.760
Hi.

546
00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:48.600
Thank you.

547
00:24:48.600 --> 00:24:49.760
Yeah, my name is Lacey.

548
00:24:49.760 --> 00:24:51.400
I live in Colorado Springs.

549
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.000
I'm 43.

550
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:55.960
I have no children and I've not been married yet,

551
00:24:57.040 --> 00:24:58.120
but I grew up in Michigan,

552
00:24:58.120 --> 00:24:59.280
which has nothing to do with children,

553
00:24:59.280 --> 00:25:00.520
but I wanted to say that.

554
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.920
that. So I really love to be outdoors, and I'm thankful to

555
00:25:02.920 --> 00:25:05.880
live in Colorado to have the mountains, but I also like the

556
00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:09.720
water. An interesting or fun fact about me is that whenever I

557
00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:13.040
travel to a different country or city, there are two souvenirs

558
00:25:13.040 --> 00:25:17.720
that I look for. The first is a magnet because it's flat and

559
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:21.320
relatively light, so it doesn't take up a lot of space. And

560
00:25:21.320 --> 00:25:25.640
then I'm reminded when I see that of the adventure that I

561
00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:28.800
had there and the people that I met. And then if possible, I

562
00:25:28.800 --> 00:25:34.160
like to find like a local yarn shop and buy yarn that has been

563
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:38.280
spun in that country or that place. So then I can make

564
00:25:38.280 --> 00:25:42.280
something when I come home and remember the culture and the

565
00:25:42.280 --> 00:25:43.840
people that I met there.

566
00:25:44.360 --> 00:25:48.440
I love that. That is so beautiful and sentimental. And

567
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:50.480
I will forgive you from being from Michigan.

568
00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:54.600
Yeah, it's been real hard for me not to say like, go blue, go

569
00:25:54.600 --> 00:25:56.640
blue, whenever you're talking about Ohio.

570
00:25:57.080 --> 00:25:57.840
I hear you.

571
00:25:57.880 --> 00:25:59.440
I've refrained until now.

572
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:03.760
I hear that. I hear that. All right. In spite of all that, you

573
00:26:03.760 --> 00:26:09.840
can still meet Lacey. L-A-C-E-Y. We will give her her spotlights

574
00:26:09.840 --> 00:26:14.000
when they come through, even though, even though she said go

575
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.560
blue. All right. Who is next on our list? I don't want to make

576
00:26:17.560 --> 00:26:23.000
sure I don't miss anyone. Melissa Joy. Hi there, girl.

577
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:31.120
Hi, my name is Melissa Joy. I will be 47 at the end of May

578
00:26:31.120 --> 00:26:37.320
when I land in Austin, Texas. I currently am in Ohio. I about

579
00:26:37.320 --> 00:26:41.720
10 years ago, I moved to Hawaii and I had an amazing encounter

580
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:45.960
with really good theology and grace. And so I left religion

581
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:50.720
and did life with God. And I told him, if I know that you

582
00:26:51.320 --> 00:26:55.600
love me for anything, and when I land in Texas, it'll be 16

583
00:26:55.720 --> 00:27:00.360
moves in the last four years. He is taking my word. I lived in

584
00:27:00.360 --> 00:27:03.040
Paris, France for a while and trained as a pastry chef and

585
00:27:03.040 --> 00:27:07.840
learning French and just added German to that. So definitely a

586
00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:11.760
lot of fun. I would not mind living in France again, but for

587
00:27:11.760 --> 00:27:16.360
now, going to Texas and not live in a suitcase for a little

588
00:27:16.360 --> 00:27:20.640
while. It'll be really nice and no kids in the house. So that's

589
00:27:20.640 --> 00:27:23.840
yes, that's awesome. Okay, she's taking the same kind of

590
00:27:23.840 --> 00:27:27.880
trajectory as David and I from Ohio to Texas to Austin. And we

591
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:31.280
can't wait to get here. I think you're gonna love it. She's

592
00:27:31.280 --> 00:27:34.360
polyglot. She speaks a couple languages. She's got all kinds

593
00:27:34.360 --> 00:27:37.080
of stuff going on there that I think is amazing. And so if you

594
00:27:37.080 --> 00:27:40.840
want to meet Melissa Joy, go ahead and email us and we will

595
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:44.280
make that introduction. Thank you, Melissa. Always good to see

596
00:27:44.280 --> 00:27:49.640
you. All right. And Rhonda's up. Help me, Rhonda. Hi.

597
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:54.440
Hi. Okay, I was named after that song, by the way.

598
00:27:55.480 --> 00:27:58.680
Of course you were because that's that makes all the sense.

599
00:27:58.680 --> 00:28:02.640
And so you guys don't know those words. It's a love song and

600
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:05.040
Rhonda's got it. She's the girl. All right.

601
00:28:06.600 --> 00:28:10.800
Okay, so my name is Rhonda. I'm 45. I've never been married. I

602
00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:14.760
don't have any kids. I live in Youngstown, Ohio, which is just

603
00:28:16.120 --> 00:28:18.680
about an hour from Cleveland. And it's also like an hour from

604
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:22.160
Pittsburgh. So I'm like kind of like in that Northeast Ohio

605
00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:26.840
area. So I was going to do two truths and a lie for my fun

606
00:28:26.840 --> 00:28:32.680
fact. My two truths and a lie would be that I have been to

607
00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:39.160
every major ballpark in the United States. I have swam in a

608
00:28:39.160 --> 00:28:46.200
volcano in El Salvador. And I have gone on a hike in Scotland

609
00:28:46.480 --> 00:28:51.320
and gotten lost on a golf course. So you guys can figure

610
00:28:51.320 --> 00:28:55.440
out which one you think is the lie. Put it in the chat. What do

611
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:58.840
you think? What do you think? Got lost on a golf course on a

612
00:28:58.840 --> 00:29:04.200
hike and a golf course. Went on a went on a went to every

613
00:29:04.200 --> 00:29:07.840
ballpark in the US swimming a volcano. Which one do you think

614
00:29:07.840 --> 00:29:14.720
is the lie? What do we got? Who thinks what the golf course? I

615
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:17.520
mean, golf courses, you could get lost there depending how big

616
00:29:17.520 --> 00:29:21.680
it is. You know, well, I took a hike in the mountains and I

617
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.400
ended up on a golf course. Okay, she got Oh, she went on a hike

618
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:28.760
in Scotland. Now everybody knows that that's not lost. Okay, so

619
00:29:28.760 --> 00:29:31.920
that's the truth. So swim in the volcano is what people think is

620
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:35.720
the lie. No, actually, I did swim in a volcano in El

621
00:29:35.760 --> 00:29:39.600
Salvador. So the lie is that I've only been to five of the

622
00:29:39.600 --> 00:29:46.360
major ballparks. How many are there? Like 20 or 30. Okay, so

623
00:29:46.360 --> 00:29:48.640
listen, guys, if you're into baseball, and you want to take

624
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:51.440
her to the rest of these ballparks, we need you to email

625
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:55.440
us and put Rhonda in the subject line so that she's not out lying

626
00:29:55.440 --> 00:29:58.760
in these streets. We don't want her lying out here. Okay, make

627
00:29:58.760 --> 00:30:00.000
it true. Make it true.

628
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:01.960
Rhonda, we're so glad to have you.

629
00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:04.080
We always love redheads around here.

630
00:30:04.080 --> 00:30:06.440
So if you guys want to meet Rhonda,

631
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:08.080
make sure that you message us

632
00:30:08.080 --> 00:30:09.440
because we'd love to introduce her.

633
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:10.440
Okay, we just got two more

634
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:12.240
and we're gonna get to our guys.

635
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:13.680
Sarah, you're up.

636
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:18.280
Hello, I'm Sarah Beth or Sarah.

637
00:30:18.280 --> 00:30:20.600
I answer to either one.

638
00:30:20.600 --> 00:30:22.000
I live in Wise, Virginia

639
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:24.520
and that is in the mountains of Virginia.

640
00:30:24.520 --> 00:30:25.480
As you can probably hear,

641
00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:28.360
I have a little bit of a Southern drawl.

642
00:30:28.360 --> 00:30:30.560
I do have children in the home

643
00:30:30.560 --> 00:30:32.720
and I'm 40 years old.

644
00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:34.200
And some fun facts about me

645
00:30:34.200 --> 00:30:36.600
is that I lift weights regularly.

646
00:30:36.600 --> 00:30:38.720
I have a home gym, a garage gym

647
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:40.280
that I absolutely love.

648
00:30:40.280 --> 00:30:44.120
And I roast my own coffee beans at home.

649
00:30:44.120 --> 00:30:46.120
I've been doing that for several years.

650
00:30:46.120 --> 00:30:47.920
I cannot tell you the last time

651
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:51.000
that I bought a bag of coffee in the grocery store.

652
00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:53.640
My friends may or may not call me a coffee snob

653
00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:55.040
but I kind of like to think of it

654
00:30:55.040 --> 00:30:56.800
as more of a coffee connoisseur.

655
00:30:56.800 --> 00:31:00.680
So anyway, and also I play the keyboard

656
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:03.800
and I sing and I'm a worship leader, so.

657
00:31:03.800 --> 00:31:04.800
That's awesome.

658
00:31:04.800 --> 00:31:07.280
Those are such beautiful, fun facts.

659
00:31:07.280 --> 00:31:08.920
So if you like to work out

660
00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:11.520
and you like coffee and you like worship

661
00:31:11.520 --> 00:31:13.880
then Sarah is your match.

662
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:15.080
So let's make sure,

663
00:31:15.080 --> 00:31:17.200
and you don't have to be able to do any of that yourself.

664
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:20.040
She will do it, but you do have to be fit, all right?

665
00:31:20.040 --> 00:31:21.560
Or you have to wanna get fit.

666
00:31:21.560 --> 00:31:25.320
So Sarah with an H, S-A-R-A-H.

667
00:31:25.320 --> 00:31:27.600
And just got to put Sarah Beth just in case

668
00:31:27.600 --> 00:31:29.560
cause we have a lot of Sarah's in this community.

669
00:31:29.560 --> 00:31:31.640
Sarah Beth in the subject line

670
00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:33.760
and we would be happy to introduce you to Sarah.

671
00:31:33.760 --> 00:31:35.440
Sarah, thanks for joining us.

672
00:31:35.440 --> 00:31:38.200
All right, we have last female spotlight.

673
00:31:39.880 --> 00:31:44.880
Last female spotlight is our own, our own Stacy.

674
00:31:45.480 --> 00:31:47.400
Hello, hello Jackie D.

675
00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:48.240
Texas.

676
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:49.320
Hello, Stacy V.

677
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:53.960
My name is Stacy and I live in Austin, Texas.

678
00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:55.280
I'm 53 years old.

679
00:31:55.280 --> 00:31:56.760
I have no children.

680
00:31:56.760 --> 00:32:00.160
I was married once, but that was about 10 years ago.

681
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:04.040
And a fun fact about me is I'm from Wisconsin.

682
00:32:04.040 --> 00:32:05.480
So if you're from Wisconsin

683
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:10.160
that means that you are born loving the Green Bay Packers.

684
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:13.560
And this summer, me and my friends

685
00:32:13.560 --> 00:32:16.800
got a private tour of Lambeau Field

686
00:32:16.800 --> 00:32:18.320
because we went to high school

687
00:32:18.320 --> 00:32:21.200
with the field manager of the Green Bay Packers.

688
00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:22.320
So that's a fun fact.

689
00:32:23.960 --> 00:32:26.400
I am involved in my church.

690
00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:27.240
Love that.

691
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:29.520
I have great relationships and community

692
00:32:29.520 --> 00:32:32.200
and I love friendships.

693
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:33.840
I love leadership.

694
00:32:33.840 --> 00:32:38.840
And my favorite go-to karaoke song is Pat Benatar's

695
00:32:40.680 --> 00:32:42.000
Hit Me With Your Best Shot.

696
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:43.960
Hit me with your best shot.

697
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:44.800
I love it.

698
00:32:44.800 --> 00:32:46.200
When Stacy and I introduced her,

699
00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:49.960
when I introduced Stacy, did anyone kind of hear the,

700
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.320
hello Newman?

701
00:32:51.320 --> 00:32:52.640
Hello Jerry.

702
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:53.760
Did you guys hear that?

703
00:32:54.520 --> 00:32:55.360
Stacy and I really love each other,

704
00:32:55.360 --> 00:32:57.320
but if you're a Seinfeld fan,

705
00:32:57.320 --> 00:32:58.360
that's what it reminded me of.

706
00:32:58.360 --> 00:32:59.320
And I thought it was funny.

707
00:32:59.320 --> 00:33:00.160
All right.

708
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:01.000
Stacy is fun.

709
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:01.840
She's funny.

710
00:33:01.840 --> 00:33:04.040
She is being very humble right now.

711
00:33:04.040 --> 00:33:06.160
She is so well-known in the city.

712
00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:08.320
She is an Austin mascot almost.

713
00:33:08.320 --> 00:33:11.160
She knows so many people and so many people love her.

714
00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:12.760
She is a leader of leaders.

715
00:33:12.760 --> 00:33:15.840
And I am so blessed that she is my friend

716
00:33:15.840 --> 00:33:17.800
and that she is in this community.

717
00:33:17.800 --> 00:33:19.440
And so if you want to meet Stacy,

718
00:33:19.440 --> 00:33:22.040
S-T-A-C-E-Y, no, just Y.

719
00:33:22.040 --> 00:33:25.120
S-T-A-C-Y, Texas.

720
00:33:25.120 --> 00:33:26.440
Put Stacy, Texas.

721
00:33:26.440 --> 00:33:28.440
Cause we do have some Stacys in this community.

722
00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:30.560
Make sure that you email us

723
00:33:30.560 --> 00:33:33.360
because we want to make that introduction for sure.

724
00:33:33.360 --> 00:33:35.240
All right, ladies, thank you so much for joining us.

725
00:33:35.240 --> 00:33:37.880
I see a lot of people shared their information in the chat

726
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:38.720
and I love that.

727
00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:40.200
And we're going to get to the guys.

728
00:33:40.200 --> 00:33:41.240
All right.

729
00:33:41.240 --> 00:33:42.840
We are going to get to the guys here.

730
00:33:42.840 --> 00:33:44.520
And I think what I'm going to do,

731
00:33:44.520 --> 00:33:48.120
let's see, we have about 25 minutes left in this session.

732
00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:51.360
I'm going to let you ask the guys questions,

733
00:33:51.360 --> 00:33:53.200
but ladies, I want you to keep it basic.

734
00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:56.360
I don't want you to go deep into the rabbit hole

735
00:33:56.360 --> 00:33:58.840
of wanting to know stuff about them

736
00:33:58.840 --> 00:34:00.520
that you wouldn't ask on a first date.

737
00:34:00.520 --> 00:34:02.120
If you wouldn't ask it on a first date,

738
00:34:02.120 --> 00:34:03.600
then don't ask it here.

739
00:34:03.600 --> 00:34:04.440
Okay.

740
00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:05.800
If you wouldn't feel comfortable,

741
00:34:05.800 --> 00:34:07.240
some of y'all are bold though.

742
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:08.480
So I might not even say that

743
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:09.920
cause some of y'all are bold.

744
00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:10.760
Okay.

745
00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:13.159
You might ask for someone's tax returns on a first date.

746
00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:14.560
I know some of you guys.

747
00:34:14.560 --> 00:34:15.400
All right.

748
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:18.080
So let's put it this way.

749
00:34:18.120 --> 00:34:20.800
If someone with good boundaries

750
00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:22.360
wouldn't ask it on a good date,

751
00:34:22.360 --> 00:34:24.440
on a first date, then don't ask it.

752
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:25.280
Okay.

753
00:34:25.280 --> 00:34:27.760
Think, what would someone with good boundaries do?

754
00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:29.320
And then do that.

755
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:30.159
All right.

756
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:34.000
And so I'm going to go ahead and spotlight our first guy.

757
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:35.719
We used to do them on a panel, you guys,

758
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:37.320
but I'm going to do them one at a time

759
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:39.159
and I'm going to try to get through them all

760
00:34:39.159 --> 00:34:41.040
in good timing here.

761
00:34:41.040 --> 00:34:44.320
But first up, and when I get you up here,

762
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:47.040
this is Dustin, when you get up here,

763
00:34:47.040 --> 00:34:49.320
I want you to give those same facts,

764
00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:50.480
you know, what's your name?

765
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:51.320
Where are you from?

766
00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:52.159
Have you ever been married?

767
00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:53.040
Do you have any kids?

768
00:34:53.040 --> 00:34:54.760
And some kind of fun fact,

769
00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:56.760
and then we'll let the ladies ask the rest of the questions.

770
00:34:56.760 --> 00:34:57.600
How's that?

771
00:34:57.600 --> 00:35:00.160
Dustin, those eyes, those eyes, Dustin.

772
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.520
And ladies, they're a little blue.

773
00:35:02.520 --> 00:35:03.440
They're a little blue.

774
00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:07.280
OK, go ahead and tell us those fun, those basic bio

775
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:09.400
facts about yourself.

776
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:10.600
My name's Dustin.

777
00:35:10.600 --> 00:35:13.000
I live in North Dallas.

778
00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:16.920
I am 42 years old, never married, no children.

779
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:21.280
Oh, and fun fact, I will say that I

780
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:24.280
have done a lot of work in the Middle East recently,

781
00:35:24.280 --> 00:35:26.040
one of which is a project working

782
00:35:26.040 --> 00:35:28.720
for the Prince of Saudi Arabia.

783
00:35:28.720 --> 00:35:30.560
Though I've never met him and never would,

784
00:35:30.560 --> 00:35:32.760
it's just not part of the process.

785
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:35.760
Wow, is he single?

786
00:35:35.760 --> 00:35:39.040
He, I'm sure, has quite a few lady friends.

787
00:35:39.040 --> 00:35:40.720
Lady friends, yes, got it.

788
00:35:40.720 --> 00:35:43.320
All right, you guys, so those are the basic info

789
00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:44.040
about Dustin.

790
00:35:44.040 --> 00:35:46.080
He's right here in Dallas, Texas.

791
00:35:46.080 --> 00:35:49.920
So let's let the question asking begin.

792
00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:51.880
I know you all got some questions for him.

793
00:35:51.880 --> 00:35:54.320
People are like, hey, Dustin, hey.

794
00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:57.080
All right, let's see, let's see, let's see.

795
00:35:57.080 --> 00:35:58.840
I see that, Kenton, you're funny.

796
00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:00.320
Willing to relocate, Dustin?

797
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:03.600
That's your first question.

798
00:36:03.600 --> 00:36:05.240
Oh, that's a tough one.

799
00:36:05.240 --> 00:36:07.280
I have not thought about it that much,

800
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:09.600
just because my whole family is fairly close.

801
00:36:09.600 --> 00:36:12.120
And so I wouldn't say it's a possibility.

802
00:36:12.120 --> 00:36:14.720
I would just say that it is a very low percentage.

803
00:36:14.720 --> 00:36:16.760
OK, so he's entrenched, you guys.

804
00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:17.480
He's embedded.

805
00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:18.920
He's not saying never.

806
00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:23.520
He's just saying it's unlikely, unless, of course,

807
00:36:23.520 --> 00:36:25.520
God would move on him and all the things.

808
00:36:25.560 --> 00:36:26.880
Guys, I know you didn't ask this,

809
00:36:26.880 --> 00:36:28.920
but I'm going to say this, because so many of you

810
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:30.680
ladies are like, oh, how tall is he?

811
00:36:30.680 --> 00:36:32.400
He's 6'5", is that right?

812
00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:33.800
Did I get that right in my head?

813
00:36:33.800 --> 00:36:35.120
Yes, that's correct, yeah.

814
00:36:35.120 --> 00:36:36.960
6'5", y'all.

815
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:38.280
That's a tall man.

816
00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:41.920
OK, and we know that, because tall Paul is here tonight.

817
00:36:41.920 --> 00:36:44.000
And he's got you beat by like 2 inches, Paul.

818
00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:45.640
You got 6'6", 6'7".

819
00:36:45.640 --> 00:36:47.080
What are you?

820
00:36:47.080 --> 00:36:47.640
What are you?

821
00:36:47.640 --> 00:36:49.080
You guys, you know why I love that?

822
00:36:49.080 --> 00:36:50.680
Because I'm 5'10", and these men make

823
00:36:50.680 --> 00:36:54.520
me feel small and dainty, which never happens to me.

824
00:36:54.520 --> 00:36:55.440
All right, let's see.

825
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:57.600
Talk about the art behind you.

826
00:36:57.600 --> 00:36:59.920
The women want to know, because you're creative, Dustin.

827
00:36:59.920 --> 00:37:01.840
Aren't you creative?

828
00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:03.840
Generally, yeah.

829
00:37:03.840 --> 00:37:06.520
I've traveled quite a bit, and so I

830
00:37:06.520 --> 00:37:08.280
have lots of photos in my house.

831
00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:09.720
So those are some that I've taken,

832
00:37:09.720 --> 00:37:14.040
and I have quite a few others in other parts.

833
00:37:14.040 --> 00:37:15.520
He did take those photos, ladies.

834
00:37:15.520 --> 00:37:17.960
You're asking about that, so yes.

835
00:37:17.960 --> 00:37:20.640
Yep, so just fun memories from fun trips.

836
00:37:20.640 --> 00:37:23.560
And so I always travel with my camera, despite the weight.

837
00:37:23.600 --> 00:37:27.760
And just take pictures for myself for fun, so.

838
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:28.680
Love that so much.

839
00:37:28.680 --> 00:37:32.320
Favorite athletic activity?

840
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:33.840
I've played a lot of basketball.

841
00:37:33.840 --> 00:37:37.400
I'm actually playing basketball later tonight in like two hours.

842
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:38.000
OK.

843
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:41.440
In men's league, though I kind of retired,

844
00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:43.960
and then people keep pulling me back in, and I don't know.

845
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:46.160
I'll probably play until I hurt myself too bad,

846
00:37:46.160 --> 00:37:48.440
and then decide never to do it again.

847
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:52.440
But I grew up doing quite a few sports like most guys did.

848
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:53.320
OK.

849
00:37:53.320 --> 00:37:54.920
And what about long distance?

850
00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:58.360
How would you feel about getting to know someone long distance?

851
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:01.480
I think it would just take a lot of effort on both people's

852
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:06.600
parts to be intentional and actually give it a try.

853
00:38:06.600 --> 00:38:07.400
I don't know.

854
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:09.320
Seems difficult. I've done a, you know,

855
00:38:09.320 --> 00:38:12.120
David, someone that was a number of hours away.

856
00:38:12.120 --> 00:38:14.560
And I mean, it was fine for a short while,

857
00:38:14.560 --> 00:38:19.400
but then you just have to make, like, try to see each other.

858
00:38:19.400 --> 00:38:21.720
It's kind of hard if you just never see each other

859
00:38:21.720 --> 00:38:23.960
and try to actually, like, have a relationship.

860
00:38:23.960 --> 00:38:25.200
So that's the trick.

861
00:38:25.200 --> 00:38:27.000
Long distance, you got to be all in, y'all.

862
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:28.160
You guys know it has to.

863
00:38:28.160 --> 00:38:30.880
You have to really know that it has a lot of potential

864
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:33.880
in order to invest that time and energy and money.

865
00:38:33.880 --> 00:38:35.840
Someone wants to know exactly what your work is.

866
00:38:35.840 --> 00:38:37.680
You're an architect, right?

867
00:38:37.680 --> 00:38:38.880
Yes, I'm an architect.

868
00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:42.920
I design hotels and resorts, and I've

869
00:38:42.920 --> 00:38:44.640
done that for like 20 years.

870
00:38:44.640 --> 00:38:48.760
And then I've started designing high end homes on the side.

871
00:38:48.760 --> 00:38:49.800
So I've done a few.

872
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:52.960
Favorite food and favorite place you've traveled.

873
00:38:52.960 --> 00:38:54.480
Favorite food?

874
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:57.400
Oh my goodness, sadly, I'm gluten free now.

875
00:38:57.400 --> 00:39:01.000
So I'm just going to go with, I'm from Nebraska.

876
00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:05.400
And so steak and sweet corn is probably perfect.

877
00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:07.920
Favorite place I've ever traveled.

878
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:09.640
It changes frequently.

879
00:39:09.640 --> 00:39:12.360
I would probably say Cambodia or Botswana,

880
00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:16.480
or I don't know, somewhere with water.

881
00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:17.680
I love going to Kauai.

882
00:39:17.680 --> 00:39:22.360
That's Kauai right there, a little private beach.

883
00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:25.320
So it just changes on the mood or what the conversation is.

884
00:39:25.320 --> 00:39:27.040
But most of my trips have been enjoyable.

885
00:39:27.040 --> 00:39:30.880
So I don't have that many that have been not in contention

886
00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:33.160
for one, my favorite trip.

887
00:39:33.160 --> 00:39:34.320
OK, that's awesome.

888
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:36.280
Someone wants to know your favorite camera lens.

889
00:39:39.160 --> 00:39:45.960
I have a 24 by 70 for my Sony, which I am getting used to now.

890
00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:48.880
I miss having a larger zoom, but with a larger zoom,

891
00:39:48.880 --> 00:39:52.200
something like a 200 millimeter, it just adds so much weight.

892
00:39:52.200 --> 00:39:56.640
But I have one of those for my old camera

893
00:39:56.640 --> 00:40:00.600
that I still enjoy because it's just fun to zoom in on things.

894
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:04.800
Yeah, no, absolutely. Okay. So that is what we're going to ask Dustin for now,

895
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:07.440
because we have a guy that needs to leave in five minutes for worship practice.

896
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:12.560
So we're going to get to him. So Dustin, thanks for joining us. A lot of people interested ladies,

897
00:40:12.560 --> 00:40:16.640
Dustin is 42. He's never been married. Doesn't have any kids and he wants to get married and

898
00:40:16.640 --> 00:40:21.760
have children. Um, so if you were, you know, also in the baby making frame of mind, you know,

899
00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:27.440
you want to build a family with someone, um, then that is going to be the first kind of non-negotiable

900
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:33.600
here. Also, we're trying to stay local with this match at first. Okay. And so if you're local within

902
00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:43.360
where you're wanting to have children, uh, and build a family, then we would love to hear from

903
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:48.560

904
00:40:48.560 --> 00:40:53.600

905
00:40:53.600 --> 00:41:00.640
sarcastic sense of humor. He likes to have, you know, good conversation with someone. And so that

906
00:41:00.640 --> 00:41:05.520
is going to be really important in this match. So if you're witty, okay. And you're pretty,

00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:49.120
All right. All right. Our only Canadian spotlight tonight on the guy's side.

Meet Mike. Hey Mike, how are you doing? Hey, good. How are you doing? Good to see you.

Canada Edmonton, your age. Have you ever been married? Do you have any kids and a fun fact?

917
00:42:04.640 --> 00:42:13.200
Yeah. So I'm in Alberta. I'm 39 years old. Um, fun fact, uh, I've been doing worship since I was

918
00:42:13.200 --> 00:42:19.360
about, uh, 10 years old. Um, I just recently got a job, uh, as a worship pastor, um, at a church

919
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:23.760
in Alberta doing that full time. Uh, I love to travel up into about five or six different

920
00:42:23.760 --> 00:42:29.440
countries. My favorite was Malaysia. Um, probably some of the best food and best people I've ever

921
00:42:29.440 --> 00:42:37.360
met and ate. Um, and yeah, I, that's probably it for now. Do you, do you,

948
00:44:47.680 --> 00:44:53.600

So we're going to go back to, since someone said go blue, I think

953
00:45:06.920 --> 00:45:08.840
we're going to go back to OH.

954
00:45:12.160 --> 00:45:12.880
Let me hear it.

955
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:15.920
Right.

956
00:45:16.160 --> 00:45:19.000
You guys, this is drew from Columbus, Ohio.

957
00:45:19.280 --> 00:45:19.480
True.

958
00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:22.520
We're going to start out with just those basic facts that everyone else is sharing.

959
00:45:22.520 --> 00:45:24.400
And then we'll let the ladies ask questions.

960
00:45:24.560 --> 00:45:25.320
Yeah, absolutely.

961
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:26.160
Good evening, everybody.

962
00:45:26.200 --> 00:45:28.360
Uh, my name is drew, uh, live here in Columbus.

963
00:45:28.840 --> 00:45:29.800
42 years old.

964
00:45:30.360 --> 00:45:32.040
Um, never married, no kids.

965
00:45:32.120 --> 00:45:35.960
Um, definitely, um, want to have those experiences.

966
00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:38.280
So, um, that is definitely in my future.

967
00:45:38.600 --> 00:45:39.400
Um, God willing.

968
00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:44.360
Um, fun fact about me is, um, I'm a very competitive person.

969
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:49.920
I played college athletics and, um, I've had eight surgeries, um, since through

970
00:45:49.920 --> 00:45:54.880
my time in sports and athletics, um, and to carry over some of my competitive

971
00:45:54.880 --> 00:45:59.880
passions within the last year, um, I started doing, uh, motivational and

972
00:45:59.880 --> 00:46:03.760
inspirational speaking, um, to high school athletic teams in and around

973
00:46:03.760 --> 00:46:08.440
the Columbus area here, really relying on the word of God, um, and incorporating

974
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:13.440
that into, um, the speeches that I've given to local, uh, athletic teams.

975
00:46:14.720 --> 00:46:15.440
That's awesome.

976
00:46:15.440 --> 00:46:16.520
You guys have fun.

977
00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:17.560
All right.

978
00:46:17.560 --> 00:46:20.640
So we got someone who cares about young people.

979
00:46:20.640 --> 00:46:25.360
Um, some eight surgeries are like, Oh, what, what's, what's like

980
00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:27.280
the biggest surgery you had?

981
00:46:27.680 --> 00:46:28.680
Oh, wow.

982
00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:33.240
Um, the biggest one that I had, let's see, I've had both hips operated on.

983
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:37.760
I've had a hamstring, a thumb, um, an ankle, a knee.

984
00:46:37.800 --> 00:46:40.280
I'd say probably the hamstring was probably the worst one that I've had.

985
00:46:40.640 --> 00:46:41.880
Completely tore it off the bone.

986
00:46:41.880 --> 00:46:42.240
They had to read.

987
00:46:42.240 --> 00:46:46.760
Oh, you guys, this is the dirty little secret of high school and college sports.

988
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:50.440
And no one tells anybody about it and the joint pain that you have

989
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:51.200
when you're older, right?

990
00:46:51.200 --> 00:46:53.560
But you guys, he is all put back together.

991
00:46:53.560 --> 00:46:54.840
He's now the bionic man.

992
00:46:54.880 --> 00:46:56.880
And so it's going to be okay.

993
00:46:57.200 --> 00:46:57.520
All right.

994
00:46:57.520 --> 00:47:01.320
So ladies, go ahead and start asking those questions.

995
00:47:01.600 --> 00:47:02.800
What about long distance?

996
00:47:03.120 --> 00:47:04.120
What do you think about it, Drew?

997
00:47:04.600 --> 00:47:08.080
Um, yeah, I think it all comes down to the level of commitment, right?

998
00:47:08.200 --> 00:47:10.320
Um, you know, long distance.

999
00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:12.160
Couple hours, maybe.

1000
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:17.440
Um, anything outside of that would really have to be exploratory, but, um, I

1001
00:47:17.440 --> 00:47:20.400
never say no, uh, until there's conversations that are had.

1002
00:47:21.200 --> 00:47:21.440
Yeah.

1003
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:23.200
It's called it's a yes until it's a no.

1004
00:47:23.200 --> 00:47:24.160
And you got it, Drew.

1005
00:47:24.160 --> 00:47:24.840
You nailed it.

1006
00:47:24.880 --> 00:47:25.960
What is your favorite sport?

1007
00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:27.680
Uh, football.

1008
00:47:29.520 --> 00:47:30.360
Football.

1009
00:47:30.480 --> 00:47:30.920
Okay.

1010
00:47:30.920 --> 00:47:31.520
Football.

1011
00:47:31.520 --> 00:47:35.960
And besides, do you know, obviously Ohio state, but, uh, what's your favorite

1012
00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:36.440
protein?

1013
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:37.160
Yeah.

1014
00:47:37.200 --> 00:47:40.640
I'm big, big Denver Broncos fan grew up loving the orange and blue.

1015
00:47:40.760 --> 00:47:43.600
John Elway was my, uh, childhood hero.

1016
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:44.840
Yeah.

1017
00:47:44.840 --> 00:47:45.400
Awesome.

1018
00:47:45.400 --> 00:47:46.080
Okay.

1019
00:47:46.240 --> 00:47:49.600
For those of you that are asking about, um, we have guys of all ages tonight.

1020
00:47:49.600 --> 00:47:52.520
So let the millennial ladies have their due.

1021
00:47:52.520 --> 00:47:56.440
And then I will bring on, um, some more seasoned men for y'all too.

1022
00:47:56.440 --> 00:47:57.320
So don't worry about that.

1023
00:47:57.320 --> 00:48:01.000
For those who have city or country, someone's asking you city or country.

1024
00:48:02.160 --> 00:48:03.680
City boy or a country boy.

1025
00:48:03.920 --> 00:48:04.480
Yeah.

1026
00:48:04.640 --> 00:48:08.360
Uh, I was raised the country boy, but, um, I'm so ingrained.

1027
00:48:08.360 --> 00:48:12.760
I've been so ingrained in the city for the last, you know, 15, 18 years or so

1028
00:48:12.760 --> 00:48:16.160
being down here in Columbus, that, um, pretty much a city boy, but my

1029
00:48:16.160 --> 00:48:17.840
folks still live in the country.

1030
00:48:17.840 --> 00:48:19.880
So a little bit of both best of both worlds.

1031
00:48:20.640 --> 00:48:23.440
Now, because you like sports so much, do you think that you could be

1032
00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:24.560
compatible with a woman?

1033
00:48:24.560 --> 00:48:26.080
Who's not into watching sports?

1034
00:48:26.440 --> 00:48:26.960
Of course.

1035
00:48:27.240 --> 00:48:27.760
Okay.

1036
00:48:28.200 --> 00:48:30.520
So for those of you that are asking, do I have to be into sports too?

1037
00:48:30.560 --> 00:48:32.320
No, you don't got to be into sports too.

1038
00:48:32.520 --> 00:48:34.920
What are some other hobbies that you have?

1039
00:48:35.520 --> 00:48:36.800
Um, that you just enjoy doing.

1040
00:48:37.120 --> 00:48:37.560
Yeah.

1041
00:48:37.600 --> 00:48:40.040
Um, I love the golf, love to travel.

1042
00:48:40.240 --> 00:48:41.880
Um, I love concerts and music.

1043
00:48:41.880 --> 00:48:46.800
That's, um, a really big, um, activity for me, especially in the summertime

1044
00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:50.440
where we can get outside and go, go enjoy a nice show outdoors.

1045
00:48:50.880 --> 00:48:54.560
Um, yeah, those would be three of the big things I would say.

1046
00:48:55.080 --> 00:48:56.000
What kind of music?

1047
00:48:56.960 --> 00:48:57.880
Uh, a range.

1048
00:48:57.920 --> 00:48:59.080
Uh, I love gospel music.

1049
00:48:59.080 --> 00:49:01.760
Obviously that's kind of my, my Zen music.

1050
00:49:01.800 --> 00:49:04.960
Um, early in the day when I'm preparing for my day, when I'm in the car

1051
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:09.080
traveling, it's gospel, uh, like country, um, country rock.

1052
00:49:09.240 --> 00:49:11.160
Um, that's really where I kind of hang my hat at.

1053
00:49:11.600 --> 00:49:15.760
Um, but I can listen to almost anything.

1054
00:49:16.920 --> 00:49:17.440
Yes.

1055
00:49:17.480 --> 00:49:17.880
Okay.

1056
00:49:17.880 --> 00:49:18.280
I love that.

1057
00:49:18.280 --> 00:49:18.960
I'm like that too.

1058
00:49:18.960 --> 00:49:20.520
I can listen to almost anything too.

1059
00:49:20.800 --> 00:49:24.520
What's the most inspiring thing you've experienced while working with kids?

1060
00:49:25.880 --> 00:49:26.120
Wow.

1061
00:49:26.120 --> 00:49:27.120
That's a great question.

1062
00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:33.240
Um, just the level of commitment that they have to one another at such an early

1063
00:49:33.360 --> 00:49:38.400
age, um, the commonality of goals that they set for themselves and the

1064
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:41.960
willingness to, to all work together to achieve those goals.

1065
00:49:42.040 --> 00:49:46.440
Um, and no matter who I talk to, whether it's a football team or a lacrosse

1066
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:51.480
team or a cross country team, um, they all have common objectives, uh, and

1067
00:49:51.480 --> 00:49:55.040
they all are working towards one goal and to see them rally around one another.

1068
00:49:55.400 --> 00:49:57.960
Um, and I'll try to achieve that goal.

1069
00:49:58.080 --> 00:49:59.920
Uh, it's really inspiring to see some.

1070
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:01.600
what's happening from our youth.

1071
00:50:01.600 --> 00:50:03.080
Yeah, no, I agree with you.

1072
00:50:03.080 --> 00:50:04.920
I feel like that's so inspiring.

1073
00:50:04.920 --> 00:50:07.640
In fact, I loved how cohesive

1074
00:50:07.640 --> 00:50:10.280
this year's Ohio State team was.

1075
00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:11.480
You know, they loved God.

1076
00:50:11.480 --> 00:50:12.360
They weren't afraid.

1077
00:50:12.360 --> 00:50:13.520
Every time they got the microphone,

1078
00:50:13.520 --> 00:50:14.440
they were like, I gotta say,

1079
00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:17.160
you know, gotta thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

1080
00:50:17.160 --> 00:50:18.360
You know, they weren't afraid

1081
00:50:18.360 --> 00:50:19.740
to not just exhibit their faith,

1082
00:50:19.740 --> 00:50:21.760
but their love for their team and their country

1083
00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:23.160
and each other and their coach.

1084
00:50:23.160 --> 00:50:24.640
And I was just really,

1085
00:50:24.640 --> 00:50:26.880
I was really rooting for them to win for that reason,

1086
00:50:26.880 --> 00:50:29.240
nothing to do with just it being my home state.

1087
00:50:29.320 --> 00:50:32.680
I was just like, that's a really quality group of guys.

1088
00:50:32.680 --> 00:50:34.400
So love that.

1089
00:50:34.400 --> 00:50:35.880
But yeah, the revival.

1090
00:50:35.880 --> 00:50:36.720
And a revival, yeah.

1091
00:50:36.720 --> 00:50:38.080
They had a revival, I heard that.

1092
00:50:38.080 --> 00:50:40.720
They had a revival, so it's so cool.

1093
00:50:40.720 --> 00:50:42.640
A lot of those guys attend my church as well.

1094
00:50:42.640 --> 00:50:44.040
So I see those guys.

1095
00:50:44.040 --> 00:50:44.880
Oh, wow.

1096
00:50:44.880 --> 00:50:46.320
Pretty much on a regular basis, yeah.

1097
00:50:46.320 --> 00:50:48.280
Yeah, so you love going to church?

1098
00:50:48.280 --> 00:50:49.440
You serve at your church?

1099
00:50:49.440 --> 00:50:50.600
I do, yep.

1100
00:50:50.600 --> 00:50:53.960
Serve on the volunteer teams on Sunday mornings.

1101
00:50:53.960 --> 00:50:55.680
I usually serve for the nine o'clock service

1102
00:50:55.680 --> 00:50:57.040
and I sit the 11th.

1103
00:50:57.400 --> 00:51:01.680
I'm involved in youth groups, men's groups, small groups,

1104
00:51:01.680 --> 00:51:04.000
just really try to be as active as what I can.

1105
00:51:04.000 --> 00:51:05.200
That's what actually kind of sparked

1106
00:51:05.200 --> 00:51:08.000
and led me to motivational speaking,

1107
00:51:08.000 --> 00:51:09.920
was a connection that I formed through that,

1108
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:11.320
through a local coach.

1109
00:51:11.320 --> 00:51:13.480
And it just kind of took off from there.

1110
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:14.480
I love that.

1111
00:51:14.480 --> 00:51:16.080
Well, you guys, if you know anyone in Ohio,

1112
00:51:16.080 --> 00:51:19.440
you think that would be Ohio or any area around there,

1113
00:51:19.440 --> 00:51:20.840
Indianapolis, Cincinnati,

1114
00:51:20.840 --> 00:51:22.680
because he's in Columbus, Cleveland.

1115
00:51:22.680 --> 00:51:24.760
We have a single city, Cleveland and Columbus.

1116
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:28.960
So if you know anyone that you think that Drew should meet,

1117
00:51:28.960 --> 00:51:31.000
definitely email into us.

1118
00:51:31.000 --> 00:51:32.240
And if you should meet Drew,

1119
00:51:32.240 --> 00:51:35.360
if you are wanting to build a family, raise a family,

1120
00:51:35.360 --> 00:51:37.760
wanting to be a Buckeye,

1121
00:51:39.800 --> 00:51:42.520
then definitely email into us.

1122
00:51:42.520 --> 00:51:44.040
Drew, thanks so much for being here.

1123
00:51:44.040 --> 00:51:45.080
Thank you, Jackie.

1124
00:51:45.080 --> 00:51:48.040
Drew, we have mutual really close friends.

1125
00:51:48.040 --> 00:51:50.440
So Drew is good friends with my lifers,

1126
00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:53.440
people I've known since I was like 19 years old.

1127
00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:56.120
And I'm telling you, he comes with good references.

1128
00:51:56.120 --> 00:51:58.920
Okay, so if you're like, man, he seems too good to be true.

1129
00:51:58.920 --> 00:52:00.160
He's not.

1130
00:52:00.160 --> 00:52:03.520
Okay, so, and for all you ladies that are like,

1131
00:52:03.520 --> 00:52:05.520
are there any good guys left in the world?

1132
00:52:05.520 --> 00:52:08.280
Yeah, as you can see tonight, there are.

1133
00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:10.680
All right, let me get another Texas,

1134
00:52:10.680 --> 00:52:12.960
another Texas going on here.

1135
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:16.720
Chad from San Antonio, you're up in the spotlight.

1136
00:52:16.720 --> 00:52:17.560
Hi, Chad.

1137
00:52:20.120 --> 00:52:21.280
Can you hear me?

1138
00:52:21.280 --> 00:52:22.120
How are you?

1139
00:52:24.120 --> 00:52:25.160
I caught you off guard.

1140
00:52:25.160 --> 00:52:26.360
I'm like, hi, Chad.

1141
00:52:26.360 --> 00:52:27.200
You're like, wait, it's me.

1142
00:52:27.200 --> 00:52:28.440
I'm like an unfolded lawn chair right now.

1143
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:30.000
My goodness gracious.

1144
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:32.600
It was like being on the kiss cam,

1145
00:52:32.600 --> 00:52:34.920
but you're like, wait, it's me.

1146
00:52:34.920 --> 00:52:35.800
Right, totally.

1147
00:52:36.640 --> 00:52:38.360
So I'm Chad.

1148
00:52:38.360 --> 00:52:40.040
I'm from San Antonio, Texas.

1149
00:52:40.040 --> 00:52:44.080
Live here now, 51 years old, have two kids.

1150
00:52:44.080 --> 00:52:48.600
My son is 16 and he just got accepted

1151
00:52:48.600 --> 00:52:50.080
on the worship team, by the way.

1152
00:52:50.080 --> 00:52:51.040
That's awesome.

1153
00:52:51.800 --> 00:52:54.160
22 year old daughter that is going to be married

1154
00:52:54.160 --> 00:52:56.120
that we just were talking about wedding plans

1155
00:52:56.120 --> 00:52:57.320
just yesterday.

1156
00:52:57.320 --> 00:52:59.520
And so that's, I can't believe my daughter's

1157
00:52:59.520 --> 00:53:00.360
getting married.

1158
00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:01.200
I can't even believe I'm saying that,

1159
00:53:01.200 --> 00:53:03.600
but just amazing kids.

1160
00:53:05.080 --> 00:53:05.920
What else?

1161
00:53:05.920 --> 00:53:06.840
She gave us like five things to remember.

1162
00:53:06.840 --> 00:53:07.680
I can only remember.

1163
00:53:07.680 --> 00:53:09.040
A fun fact, a fun fact.

1164
00:53:09.040 --> 00:53:10.960
So I'm gonna, I'm a talker,

1165
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:12.520
so I'm going to give you three.

1166
00:53:14.720 --> 00:53:17.720
Fun fact is I've been in the same business line of work

1167
00:53:17.720 --> 00:53:19.280
for 30 years.

1168
00:53:19.280 --> 00:53:22.400
And the Lord called me just a short while ago

1169
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:25.000
to start a business in real estate on the side.

1170
00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:27.440
And when God does something, as you know,

1171
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:28.600
he kicks the door wide open.

1172
00:53:28.600 --> 00:53:30.840
So July, I didn't have any properties

1173
00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:34.240
and we are actually closing on our fourth tomorrow.

1174
00:53:34.240 --> 00:53:35.600
It's just been exploding.

1175
00:53:35.600 --> 00:53:36.880
It really has.

1176
00:53:36.880 --> 00:53:40.000
I'm very, very much deep rooted in the country.

1177
00:53:40.000 --> 00:53:42.520
Whether it's building projects out of metal,

1178
00:53:42.520 --> 00:53:46.200
team roping, whatever, building fence, whatever.

1179
00:53:46.200 --> 00:53:47.120
Love doing all that.

1180
00:53:47.120 --> 00:53:48.960
And the last two summers,

1181
00:53:48.960 --> 00:53:51.520
I've been on mission trips to England.

1182
00:53:51.520 --> 00:53:52.840
Wow, that's awesome.

1183
00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:53.880
What, did you go to Oxford?

1184
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:55.080
What part of England did you go to?

1185
00:53:55.080 --> 00:53:57.280
Oh, we went to Brighton, just south of London.

1186
00:53:57.280 --> 00:53:58.760
Okay.

1187
00:53:58.760 --> 00:53:59.600
My daughter went-

1188
00:53:59.600 --> 00:54:02.280
I just started a podcast about two years ago too.

1189
00:54:02.280 --> 00:54:03.800
You did, you started a podcast.

1190
00:54:03.800 --> 00:54:05.120
And what's that about?

1191
00:54:05.120 --> 00:54:06.320
Just a Christian podcast.

1192
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:08.160
It's just about encouragement,

1193
00:54:08.160 --> 00:54:12.120
just to let all God's children know that they're loved.

1194
00:54:12.120 --> 00:54:13.280
I love it.

1195
00:54:13.280 --> 00:54:16.000
Stacey, Stacey here in Austin is asking

1196
00:54:16.040 --> 00:54:18.440
what type of missions did you do in England?

1197
00:54:18.440 --> 00:54:21.440
So, because everybody's over there are atheist,

1198
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:24.600
that literally evangelism is 100% my spiritual gift.

1199
00:54:24.600 --> 00:54:26.760
So I don't know when to stop talking

1200
00:54:26.760 --> 00:54:27.720
and where the off button is.

1201
00:54:27.720 --> 00:54:30.200
So you talk to everybody over there

1202
00:54:30.200 --> 00:54:32.800
that literally has skipped a generation.

1203
00:54:32.800 --> 00:54:35.560
So you are just almost like street evangelism.

1204
00:54:35.560 --> 00:54:36.440
Okay.

1205
00:54:36.440 --> 00:54:37.280
Yeah, I know.

1206
00:54:37.280 --> 00:54:38.120
That sounds great.

1207
00:54:38.120 --> 00:54:38.960
Now, of course,

1208
00:54:38.960 --> 00:54:41.880
all the ladies always want to know how tall people are.

1209
00:54:41.880 --> 00:54:42.720
6'2".

1210
00:54:42.720 --> 00:54:43.720
6'2".

1211
00:54:43.720 --> 00:54:47.000
All right, you guys got some tall oak trees in here tonight.

00:54:47.000 --> 00:54:48.920

00:54:56.960 --> 00:54:58.760
She said, does he want to have me on his podcast?

1218
00:54:58.760 --> 00:54:59.600
I'm sure he does.

1219
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:03.360
We'll connect you guys for that reason.

1220
00:55:03.360 --> 00:55:03.640

00:55:03.640 --> 00:55:07.240
Any ever come to any ropings in North Texas?

I actually went to a school up there in Decatur, but I've not

1223
00:55:11.400 --> 00:55:14.560
been to an actual roping up there, but I went to a school out in Decatur.

1224
00:55:15.080 --> 00:55:15.400
All right.

1225
00:55:15.400 --> 00:55:18.140
Well, our resident horse woman, Lily would love to invite you to that.

Okay.

1244
00:56:04.120 --> 00:56:06.240
Ladies, you have any other questions for Chad?

1245
00:56:06.240 --> 00:56:08.280
He's just right here in San Antonio, Texas.

1246
00:56:08.280 --> 00:56:09.360
San Antonio is beautiful.

1247
00:56:09.360 --> 00:56:10.520
Love San Antonio.

1248
00:56:11.000 --> 00:56:13.560
Um, he obviously serves at his church.

1249
00:56:13.840 --> 00:56:16.520
Passionate about the Lord has a great podcast.

1250
00:56:16.520 --> 00:56:19.840
You guys can go and get to know him better as you listen to that.

1251
00:56:20.200 --> 00:56:24.960
If you want to meet Chad, then you can just email us and drop Chad and put,

00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:36.520
So we can make sure that we get that introduction to him, Chad.

1255
00:56:36.520 --> 00:56:38.000
Thanks so much for joining me tonight.

1256
00:56:38.360 --> 00:56:40.120
Thank you for having me appreciate it.

1257
00:56:40.440 --> 00:56:40.960

1258
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:42.320
So that's another great guy.

1259
00:56:42.360 --> 00:56:42.760
All right.

1260
00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:45.160
We're going to keep on moving down the line.

1261
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:47.920
Still can't type in there.

1262
00:56:47.920 --> 00:56:49.800
So I'm going to scroll, scroll, scroll.

1263
00:56:51.120 --> 00:56:51.520
All right.

1264
00:56:51.520 --> 00:56:55.040
Next up, we have someone out, a guy, great guy.

1265
00:56:55.520 --> 00:56:59.440
It's been around this community for a while now out in California.

1266
00:56:59.800 --> 00:57:02.920
Timothy, welcome to single spotlight.

1267
00:57:03.400 --> 00:57:04.760
Timothy's out in Reading.

1268
00:57:05.200 --> 00:57:07.880
We're going to go ahead and let you answer those basic questions that

1269
00:57:07.880 --> 00:57:10.480
everyone else has answered, and then we'll let the ladies ask you some.

1270
00:57:11.120 --> 00:57:12.640
Sounds good, Jackie.

1271
00:57:12.640 --> 00:57:14.560
I just think you're ready for radio.

1272
00:57:14.560 --> 00:57:15.960
That's what I'm hearing this whole time.

1273
00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:20.400
I've been writing down some of the phrases like seasoned man.

1274
00:57:21.720 --> 00:57:22.040
Okay.

1275
00:57:22.040 --> 00:57:23.400
Am I seasoned man?

1276
00:57:23.400 --> 00:57:24.240
What's I don't know.

1277
00:57:24.240 --> 00:57:25.600
Like what's going on now?

1278
00:57:25.600 --> 00:57:26.200
I'd listen.

1279
00:57:26.200 --> 00:57:28.400
I'm picking randomly from my list.

1280
00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:30.320
Yeah.

1281
00:57:30.680 --> 00:57:31.760
I've really enjoyed this.

1282
00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:34.720
And I also enjoyed the, like the positive comments.

1283
00:57:34.720 --> 00:57:36.000
I see people sending out.

1284
00:57:36.000 --> 00:57:36.960
I think that's great.

1285
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:39.880
You know, that people are just encouraging everyone.

1286
00:57:40.960 --> 00:57:41.280
Yeah.

1287
00:57:41.280 --> 00:57:42.040
My name's Timothy.

1288
00:57:42.040 --> 00:57:42.800
I'm 49.

1289
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:43.640
I live out in Reading.

1290
00:57:43.640 --> 00:57:45.440
I go to Bethel church.

1291
00:57:45.480 --> 00:57:49.760
I'm a database programmer, not the most exciting, but it pays the bills.

1292
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:52.800
And, uh, I like doing artwork.

1293
00:57:52.840 --> 00:57:57.320
And, um, one of my favorite things to do on the weekends is play pickleball.

1294
00:57:57.320 --> 00:58:01.200
So that's, uh, something that I love playing pickleball.

1295
00:58:01.680 --> 00:58:04.520
Um, and I'm on the prophetic teams at Bethel.

1296
00:58:04.520 --> 00:58:08.160
So that's my main gifting is to do prophetic ministry.

1297
00:58:08.200 --> 00:58:12.840
And, uh, I do, uh, mountains is my main thing.

1298
00:58:12.840 --> 00:58:14.560
I lived in Colorado Springs for a while.

1299
00:58:14.560 --> 00:58:18.000
So painted mountains and was in a couple of galleries out there.

1300
00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:23.240
And so getting back into painting mountains and, uh, doing that.

1301
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:25.040
Um, what else?

1302
00:58:25.160 --> 00:58:26.520
Oh, yeah.

1303
00:58:26.600 --> 00:58:31.040
I wrote down like my number one priority is putting God first in my life.

1304
00:58:31.120 --> 00:58:35.800
So God is, uh, definitely my number one priority in my life.

1305
00:58:36.440 --> 00:58:41.120
Um, I do, uh, I'm starting to do videos of the, uh, prophetic ministry

1306
00:58:41.160 --> 00:58:45.520
that I do on Sundays where I'll put like certain stories into a prophetic.

1307
00:58:46.080 --> 00:58:46.320
Bang.

1308
00:58:46.320 --> 00:58:48.840
And then I'll use some AI to generate videos of what I felt

1309
00:58:48.840 --> 00:58:50.120
like I was seeing in the spirit.

1310
00:58:50.800 --> 00:58:54.000
And, um, yeah, I'm six foot four.

1311
00:58:54.160 --> 00:58:55.720
Try and think of all the questions.

1312
00:58:56.200 --> 00:58:58.480
Um, you guys are all so tall.

1313
00:58:58.480 --> 00:58:58.960
My good.

1314
00:59:00.520 --> 00:59:00.880
Yeah.

1315
00:59:01.560 --> 00:59:07.960
Um, I, I like working in acrylic because it's fast, uh, opposed to like oil, which

1316
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:13.200
takes a really long time to dry and it's really smelly, so I mainly use it acrylic

1317
00:59:13.200 --> 00:59:15.360
with an extender in there to make that paint.

1318
00:59:15.920 --> 00:59:20.280
Uh, yeah, it's great being out here in Bethel reading.

1319
00:59:20.320 --> 00:59:23.000
I work remotely, so I'm able to do that.

1320
00:59:23.040 --> 00:59:25.360
And, um, yeah, it's

1321
00:59:25.920 --> 00:59:27.320
you haven't been out there for very long.

1322
00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:28.240
How long have you lived there?

1323
00:59:29.080 --> 00:59:30.840
It's around four months right now.

1324
00:59:31.080 --> 00:59:32.520
Um, yeah.

1325
00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:34.840
Would you be willing to relocate again?

1326
00:59:35.720 --> 00:59:37.000
I am open to it.

1327
00:59:37.040 --> 00:59:39.360
I think if it was the right situation.

1328
00:59:39.520 --> 00:59:44.320
Um, yeah, I think that's my ultimate goal is to be married and have kids still.

1329
00:59:44.360 --> 00:59:49.480
And, um, just enjoy life together, be able to laugh.

1330
00:59:49.480 --> 00:59:50.560
That's another big thing.

1331
00:59:50.600 --> 00:59:54.040
Um, two of my biggest things I'm six foot two barefoot.

1332
00:59:54.040 --> 00:59:54.600
That's funny.

1333
00:59:55.640 --> 00:59:59.400
Um, some of my big things is being able to laugh together and have a, like a long

1334
00:59:59.400 --> 00:59:59.960
lasting.

1335
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.640
conversation and then also being able to work through conflict. Those are my two number one

1336
01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:12.320
things that I look for. But, um, You guys, Timothy has done the work. Okay. He's done the work. He,

1337
01:00:12.320 --> 01:00:16.720
like I said, he's been around here for, you know, I've known him for a couple of years now and he's

1338
01:00:16.720 --> 01:00:21.920
definitely done the work. The heart work is what I'm talking about. He's dig, he's dug into his

1339
01:00:21.920 --> 01:00:28.880
stuff, you know, everyone needs to do that. And so he is ready to make a connection. All right.

1340
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:32.960
So it seems like he was able to look at all your questions. So it sounds like he answered

1341
01:00:32.960 --> 01:00:38.080
most of them. Does anyone else have any more questions for Timothy? He does want to have a

1342
01:00:38.080 --> 01:00:44.160
family. Um, and so if you are in that season of life where you are still wanting to give birth

1343
01:00:44.160 --> 01:00:49.920
to babies and raise them, uh, then that will be one of the main criteria here. And then of course,

1344
01:00:49.920 --> 01:00:55.600
fun and active and love God and all the things that he mentioned, even if you don't do them,

1345
01:00:55.600 --> 01:01:01.360
can you appreciate them? Do you appreciate art? Um, do you like to have conversations?

1346
01:01:01.360 --> 01:01:07.360
Are you healthy in solving and communicating and solving problems and conflicts? Um,

1347
01:01:08.000 --> 01:01:12.800
are you asking how old Timothy is? He's 49 years old. Favorite food. There's an easy one.

1348
01:01:14.240 --> 01:01:22.000
What's your favorite. Yeah, I don't know. It's cross. I like, uh, Mexican food. And, um,

1349
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:31.840
I also like Panda express or like good, I don't know, like Japanese, Chinese, Japanese, Thai food.

1350
01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:39.520
I like mixing it up, but like going to mod pizza once in a while. Oh yeah. Mod pizza is great.

1351
01:01:40.880 --> 01:01:45.840
Which is also just like my pizza, but, and then, you know, you, you go, um, what's the name of

1352
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:53.840
that pizza place with where you are? Um, I don't know. The wood fired pizzas. Oh,

1353
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:58.560
I haven't been there yet. Oh, you got to go there. You'd like it. Oh, okay. All right. It's really

1354
01:01:58.560 --> 01:02:03.040
good. Write it down. I wish I could tell you the name of it. Oh, Cinders. It's called Cinders.

1355
01:02:03.760 --> 01:02:09.520
Cinders. Yes. Like Cinderella. All right. Some of you say you're visiting Bethel next month. Some

1356
01:02:09.520 --> 01:02:13.600
of you say you live there. We do have a big single city there. So you met Timothy here.

1357
01:02:13.600 --> 01:02:18.320
If you want us to make an introduction, even if he's in your city, we can do that. If you email

1358
01:02:18.320 --> 01:02:24.080
us and put Timothy, but Timothy Redding, okay. Redding, California in the subject line, make

1359
01:02:24.080 --> 01:02:27.680
sure that you share with us your bio and your pictures. Once again, we're not going to go

1360
01:02:27.680 --> 01:02:34.160
hunting for them. We will just put your requests in the trash. If you do not include that. Okay.

1361
01:02:34.960 --> 01:02:41.520
All right. Yes. Mellow mushroom pizza is so good in Ohio too. Jen, that's a really good pizza place.

1362
01:02:41.520 --> 01:02:45.760
All right, Timothy. Thanks so much for joining us. I've got to run. Thank you, everyone.

1363
01:02:50.000 --> 01:02:53.920
And by the way, y'all, I was on, I was on the radio for years. So I think that's where that

1364
01:02:53.920 --> 01:03:03.120
comes from. Okay. All right. Who's next? Let's see. All right. I don't know if he's here yet.

1365
01:03:03.120 --> 01:03:10.960
He's traveling. So let me see if he made it in time. I don't see him yet. So we'll come back to

1366
01:03:10.960 --> 01:03:16.800
that. Um, let me see a couple more guys on my list. Are you guys having fun tonight? Is this fun?

1367
01:03:18.800 --> 01:03:25.040
I see Andy's here. So I'm going to go ahead and go to Andy next. Andy is in Allen park, Michigan.

1368
01:03:26.400 --> 01:03:31.040
And you guys, I want to let you know, I am very aware that Michigan is a beautiful state.

1369
01:03:31.040 --> 01:03:38.160
Okay. I have been there many times and it is objectively a gorgeous place. All right. So

1370
01:03:38.240 --> 01:03:43.440
Andy, uh, same as everybody else, give us some of those, those basic facts about yourself and

1371
01:03:43.440 --> 01:03:50.320
then one fun fact, and then we'll let everyone else ask you questions. Go ahead. So I'm a 33.

1372
01:03:50.320 --> 01:04:01.440
I'm never married. Don't have any kids. Um, and, um, I have a number of very unique hobbies. Um,

1373
01:04:02.080 --> 01:04:11.200
well, first of all, I'm, I'm a plumbing engineer for work and I sing Gregorian chant at mass and

1374
01:04:11.200 --> 01:04:18.720
I like sci-fi writing and board game designing and, um, YouTube videos about Dante's Inferno.

1375
01:04:18.720 --> 01:04:26.320
I make, and also, um, studying alternative medicine. Wow. That's amazing. Okay. You guys,

1376
01:04:26.320 --> 01:04:32.480
what Gregorian chant is cool says Becca. Yes, I agree with that. Um, go ahead and Cheryl,

1377
01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:36.400
thank you for putting those synopsis up. If you guys are catching those, Cheryl is putting all of

1378
01:04:36.400 --> 01:04:42.880
their, their bio facts up there, um, together so you can see it. All right. Love your ways of

1379
01:04:42.880 --> 01:04:48.080
interest. Have you ever designed a board game? Yes. That's, that's one of the things I said,

1380
01:04:48.080 --> 01:04:51.360
I designed, I said, what's it called? I'm sorry. What's it called?

1381
01:04:51.360 --> 01:04:59.280
Oh, what, what are my games called? I've designed many games. Um, the first game I designed was

1382
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:06.160
game called Shooter which was a game involving marbles and marble shooters and the board was

1383
01:05:06.160 --> 01:05:12.720
originally made out of a styrofoam container for ice cream cones and I thought it was a good shape

1384
01:05:12.720 --> 01:05:19.600
for games so I used it for that. I've designed many playing card games like Jack of Time is a

1385
01:05:19.600 --> 01:05:28.640
trick-taking card game involving time travel and there's many others. That's really cool.

1386
01:05:28.720 --> 01:05:34.880
I like the sound of that. The marble shooter, that's cool. I used to play. I wasn't really

1387
01:05:34.880 --> 01:05:39.040
good at it but we did used to shoot marbles when I was a kid. My siblings and I designed

1388
01:05:39.040 --> 01:05:46.800
a board game. Oh, cats or dogs or neither? Well, I don't have any pets. I mean I'm open to cats

1389
01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:55.040
though. My parents have a cat and I like cats. For pets, I'm mostly a plant person.

1390
01:05:56.000 --> 01:06:01.920
I like taking care of plants. Okay, that's great and it's good that you can keep plants alive. I

1391
01:06:01.920 --> 01:06:08.000
have a hard time keeping them alive. Someone wants to know how tall are you? 5'4". Okay, 5'4".

1392
01:06:08.000 --> 01:06:12.080
And you have, is that your tree? Is that your Christmas tree back there? It is and I have it

1393
01:06:12.080 --> 01:06:18.960
up because it's 2025 because December 25th, 2025, you know? So I'm leaving out the whole year because

1394
01:06:18.960 --> 01:06:25.760
it's 2025. Oh, interesting. Okay, raise your hand if you still have your Christmas tree up. I want

1395
01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:29.200
to see how many people still have their Christmas tree up. You're in the honor system right now.

1396
01:06:29.920 --> 01:06:38.080
Raise your hand if your Christmas tree is still up. Raise your hand. I see all those hands. Look

1397
01:06:38.080 --> 01:06:43.360
at all those hands y'all because I saw some of your Christmas trees on some of these sessions

1398
01:06:43.360 --> 01:06:47.680
that we've been on since the first. Okay, no shame, no game. I left my Christmas tree up until

1399
01:06:47.680 --> 01:06:53.200
May one year. It was a busy year. All right, so Andy has a purpose. He's not just not wanting to

1400
01:06:53.200 --> 01:06:58.960
take it down. He's leaving it up prophetically because it is December 25th is Christmas day and

1401
01:06:58.960 --> 01:07:05.840
it is the year 2025. All right, that's fun and it makes it really nice and festive in your house.

1402
01:07:05.840 --> 01:07:10.400
All right, Andy, thank you so much for joining us. You guys, if you want to know more about Andy or

1403
01:07:10.400 --> 01:07:17.040
you want an introduction, please put Andy Michigan in the subject line of your email

1404
01:07:17.040 --> 01:07:21.200
and remember to add all of your information so that we can make that introduction.

1405
01:07:21.200 --> 01:07:26.800
Thank you so much, Andy. You have so many really interesting interests and I bet you're a really

1406
01:07:26.800 --> 01:07:32.800
fun guy to hang out with. All right, okay, let's try to find, he said he's here. Can you go ahead and

1407
01:07:32.800 --> 01:07:40.080
raise your hand, Mark, because I can't find you. Raise your little avatar hand so that I can find

1408
01:07:40.080 --> 01:07:50.640
you and I can spotlight you, please. Raise your little avatar hand.

1409
01:08:04.160 --> 01:08:05.200
I still don't see you.

1410
01:08:10.800 --> 01:08:18.640
Mark.

1411
01:08:20.080 --> 01:08:26.800
Okay, I'm going to move on. I still can't find you. I'm not seeing your hand. All right, so let's go

1412
01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:36.080
on to Kenton. We have another Canadian gentleman with us tonight. Kenton, so good to see you. Go

1413
01:08:36.080 --> 01:08:41.600
ahead and answer that basic bio information and we'll let the ladies ask you some questions.

1414
01:08:42.160 --> 01:08:47.279
Absolutely. Good evening, all LYS community, especially you ladies. Good to see you all out

1415
01:08:47.279 --> 01:08:56.160
tonight. I am Kenton Restolk and it is phonetically correct, absolutely. I am a 65-year-old man with

1416
01:08:56.160 --> 01:09:00.240
a 30-year-old body. Sorry to have to tell you that because I'm totally into sports,

1417
01:09:00.240 --> 01:09:07.439
totally into athletic events. Something that might be a little bit interesting in my life

1418
01:09:07.439 --> 01:09:13.040
was I was the smallest police officer ever hired in Canada. I'm 5'6", if you're interested. Most

1419
01:09:13.040 --> 01:09:19.439
were 5'10 or above at that time and since that time they've been hiring much smaller people

1420
01:09:19.439 --> 01:09:24.080
because I was able to prove that smaller people can use their mouths much better than they can

1421
01:09:24.080 --> 01:09:31.760
fists. So it works even though I'm a self-defense instructor. I'm also a motorcycle, was a motorcycle

1422
01:09:31.760 --> 01:09:39.120
cop, so I enjoyed that life. Then I went on to full-time ministry after that and enjoyed doing a

1423
01:09:39.120 --> 01:09:45.359
seven-year course for a Bachelor of Religious Education, a pastoral study with counseling,

1424
01:09:45.359 --> 01:09:51.920
and I did it all in three years. Now that was fun. Try it sometime. But besides that, I enjoy,

1425
01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:59.360
I've got four lovely children. I've got 10 great grandchildren and they are absolutely fantastic.

1426
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:02.880
Grandparents would love getting dirty and messy,

1427
01:10:02.880 --> 01:10:05.600
and let's get down and play with the old,

1428
01:10:05.600 --> 01:10:08.080
the old, what do they call that?

1429
01:10:08.080 --> 01:10:11.080
Little Play-Doh stuff that they have in the bakeries.

1430
01:10:11.080 --> 01:10:12.240
They have those little kitchens.

1431
01:10:12.240 --> 01:10:13.880
I love doing it with my grandkids.

1432
01:10:13.880 --> 01:10:14.920
It's just much fun.

1433
01:10:16.360 --> 01:10:20.680
What I love to do is I love to play volleyball,

1434
01:10:20.680 --> 01:10:23.520
pickleball, those are two of my go-to sports.

1435
01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:24.800
I love skiing in the wintertime,

1436
01:10:24.800 --> 01:10:27.740
and I love doing motorcycles in the summertime as well too.

1437
01:10:27.780 --> 01:10:30.300
But I'm an athletic person, outdoor person,

1438
01:10:30.300 --> 01:10:31.420
and indoor person.

1439
01:10:31.420 --> 01:10:33.140
That's why I enjoy all sports.

1440
01:10:33.140 --> 01:10:36.220
I have not matched, have met my match yet, ladies.

1441
01:10:36.220 --> 01:10:39.560
I'm still looking for that can actually keep up with me.

1442
01:10:40.500 --> 01:10:42.980
I am just so active all the time.

1443
01:10:42.980 --> 01:10:45.020
It's just like, yeah, you gotta keep,

1444
01:10:45.020 --> 01:10:46.180
you gotta keep yourself going

1445
01:10:46.180 --> 01:10:49.100
because I'm a squirrel on steroids in so many ways.

1446
01:10:50.740 --> 01:10:52.340
All right, ladies, that's a lot.

1447
01:10:52.340 --> 01:10:53.780
There's a lot of things there.

1448
01:10:53.780 --> 01:10:55.900
I know you wanna ask some questions, so go ahead.

1449
01:10:55.900 --> 01:10:58.620
Let's ask Kenton some questions.

1450
01:10:58.620 --> 01:11:01.260
He's looking for someone who can keep up with him.

1451
01:11:01.260 --> 01:11:03.260
And you know, that's real true

1452
01:11:03.260 --> 01:11:06.420
because a lot of people have a retired kind of mentality.

1453
01:11:06.420 --> 01:11:07.600
He wants to refire.

1454
01:11:07.600 --> 01:11:10.660
He wants to go after everything that's still available.

1455
01:11:10.660 --> 01:11:13.180
And I know a lot of you ladies are like that as well.

1456
01:11:13.180 --> 01:11:14.420
So he's 65.

1457
01:11:14.420 --> 01:11:15.960
He's got kids and grandkids.

1458
01:11:15.960 --> 01:11:17.040
He's from Alberta,

1459
01:11:17.040 --> 01:11:19.460
self-defense instructor with a pastoral bent.

1460
01:11:19.460 --> 01:11:20.940
This is what Cheryl has written about him.

1461
01:11:20.940 --> 01:11:22.100
And there's lots of other things

1462
01:11:22.100 --> 01:11:23.540
that he shared about himself.

1463
01:11:24.380 --> 01:11:25.220
Go ahead.

1464
01:11:25.220 --> 01:11:28.380
There's also, I was an advocate for women in ministry

1465
01:11:28.380 --> 01:11:30.220
here in Alberta with the POC churches.

1466
01:11:30.220 --> 01:11:32.500
So I believe in women being in ministry,

1467
01:11:32.500 --> 01:11:34.380
they should have been there in the first place.

1468
01:11:34.380 --> 01:11:35.740
And so if you're in ministry

1469
01:11:35.740 --> 01:11:37.020
and that's something that you're interested in

1470
01:11:37.020 --> 01:11:39.020
having somebody to come alongside of you

1471
01:11:39.020 --> 01:11:43.360
and to just be a man that can be just a helpmate to you

1472
01:11:43.360 --> 01:11:44.200
or help meet.

1473
01:11:44.200 --> 01:11:46.420
I love that, that's awesome.

1474
01:11:46.420 --> 01:11:49.340
Love women in ministries, that's awesome.

1475
01:11:49.340 --> 01:11:51.020
I am a hunter by the way.

1476
01:11:51.020 --> 01:11:52.780
So I do like elk and moose.

1477
01:11:53.700 --> 01:11:54.740
Wow.

1478
01:11:54.740 --> 01:11:55.580
Yeah.

1479
01:11:55.580 --> 01:11:57.220
And I drive the biggest trucks in the world

1480
01:11:57.220 --> 01:12:00.000
by the way right now in the biggest sandbox.

1481
01:12:00.000 --> 01:12:01.060
There are 410 trucks.

1482
01:12:01.060 --> 01:12:02.660
So if you ever need a job,

1483
01:12:02.660 --> 01:12:05.220
just let me know, we'll get you up North.

1484
01:12:05.220 --> 01:12:06.660
Wow, amazing.

1485
01:12:06.660 --> 01:12:09.900
Okay, so what is your favorite book?

1486
01:12:09.900 --> 01:12:12.140
Do you like to swim and kayak?

1487
01:12:13.100 --> 01:12:18.100
Yes, I swim like a lead balloon, but I can swim.

1488
01:12:18.540 --> 01:12:21.020
I do kayak, I do water sports.

1489
01:12:21.020 --> 01:12:23.120
I enjoy that as well too.

1490
01:12:23.720 --> 01:12:24.920
So yeah, that's all fun.

1491
01:12:26.640 --> 01:12:27.600
What was the other question?

1492
01:12:27.600 --> 01:12:29.040
I missed out on that.

1493
01:12:29.040 --> 01:12:31.000
Your book, your favorite book.

1494
01:12:31.000 --> 01:12:32.120
Oh, favorite book.

1495
01:12:32.120 --> 01:12:34.240
Well, Jackie just had my most favorite book

1496
01:12:34.240 --> 01:12:35.440
was the one you wrote.

1497
01:12:36.440 --> 01:12:37.560
You know what?

1498
01:12:37.560 --> 01:12:39.520
I like you more and more all the time.

1499
01:12:41.080 --> 01:12:42.680
That was an impacted book.

1500
01:12:42.680 --> 01:12:44.680
Your illustrations and your life story alone

1501
01:12:44.680 --> 01:12:46.880
was just, it brought me to tears.

1502
01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:47.720
I have to say that.

1503
01:12:47.720 --> 01:12:49.160
Oh, I'm so glad.

1504
01:12:49.160 --> 01:12:51.960
I share that with other people I buy it from as well too.

1505
01:12:51.960 --> 01:12:52.840
Oh, I love that.

1506
01:12:53.560 --> 01:12:54.400
That's so amazing.

1507
01:12:54.400 --> 01:12:57.200
Ladies wanna know if you're willing to date Americans,

1508
01:12:57.200 --> 01:12:59.840
date long distance and obviously date long distance

1509
01:12:59.840 --> 01:13:02.400
in Canada too, because you know, Canada is big.

1510
01:13:02.400 --> 01:13:03.600
Yeah, no, Canada is huge.

1511
01:13:03.600 --> 01:13:04.480
There's no doubt about it.

1512
01:13:04.480 --> 01:13:06.760
I have the ability with my job,

1513
01:13:06.760 --> 01:13:10.240
as long as I can be near a large airport

1514
01:13:10.240 --> 01:13:11.920
where I can fly back to Canada.

1515
01:13:11.920 --> 01:13:16.720
I work seven days in, seven days out.

1516
01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:19.480
And so that means I need to be gone every second week.

1517
01:13:19.480 --> 01:13:21.880
But that means I get those long extended holidays

1518
01:13:21.880 --> 01:13:23.080
when I take seven days off.

1519
01:13:23.080 --> 01:13:25.320
So I can go to Israel, Italy.

1520
01:13:25.320 --> 01:13:28.360
Those are my next two places I'm ready to go to.

1521
01:13:29.360 --> 01:13:30.680
Wonderful.

1522
01:13:30.680 --> 01:13:31.560
Italy is amazing.

1523
01:13:31.560 --> 01:13:34.040
I haven't been to Israel yet, but that is awesome.

1524
01:13:34.040 --> 01:13:35.920
Some ladies here are swooning over you.

1525
01:13:35.920 --> 01:13:37.840
That's cute.

1526
01:13:37.840 --> 01:13:38.760
Okay.

1527
01:13:38.760 --> 01:13:39.600
All right.

1528
01:13:39.600 --> 01:13:40.440
Does anyone else have any more?

1529
01:13:40.440 --> 01:13:41.520
I know we're running out of time.

1530
01:13:41.520 --> 01:13:42.960
We have three more guys to get to,

1531
01:13:42.960 --> 01:13:45.000
but if you want to meet Kenton from Canada,

1532
01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:46.400
please put that in the subject line.

1533
01:13:46.400 --> 01:13:48.240
Kenton, Canada.

1534
01:13:48.240 --> 01:13:49.080
All right.

1535
01:13:49.080 --> 01:13:51.440
Ken, K-E-N-T-O-N, or is it E-N?

1536
01:13:51.440 --> 01:13:52.280
Is it O-N, right?

1537
01:13:52.280 --> 01:13:53.120
O-N.

1538
01:13:53.120 --> 01:13:54.280
O-N, that's correct.

1539
01:13:54.280 --> 01:13:55.120
K-E-N-T-O-N.

1540
01:13:55.120 --> 01:13:55.960
One little thing,

1541
01:13:55.960 --> 01:13:57.720
if you really want to know what I'm all about,

1542
01:13:57.720 --> 01:14:01.560
if anybody's seen that amazing little article

1543
01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:04.280
that said the meaning of true love from a man,

1544
01:14:04.280 --> 01:14:05.480
if you ever go there,

1545
01:14:05.480 --> 01:14:08.560
you'll find out exactly who and how I am.

1546
01:14:09.640 --> 01:14:10.480
There you go.

1547
01:14:10.480 --> 01:14:12.960
Google that, and then you will know all you need to know

1548
01:14:12.960 --> 01:14:15.480
about Kenton from Canada.

1549
01:14:15.480 --> 01:14:18.960
And so drop us an email, put him in the subject line,

1550
01:14:19.720 --> 01:14:20.680
make sure you include your information,

1551
01:14:20.680 --> 01:14:23.280
and we would love to connect you to Kenton.

1552
01:14:23.280 --> 01:14:24.120
All right.

1553
01:14:24.120 --> 01:14:26.040
I was just in Vegas,

1554
01:14:26.040 --> 01:14:29.160
and I did not get to meet this guy in person.

1555
01:14:29.160 --> 01:14:32.360
I wish I could have, but I didn't get to.

1556
01:14:32.360 --> 01:14:34.040
Actually, I don't see him.

1557
01:14:34.040 --> 01:14:35.400
He might've had to go.

1558
01:14:38.240 --> 01:14:39.880
David in Vegas.

1559
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:41.240
Are you still here?

1560
01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:45.000
He might've had to go.

1561
01:14:45.000 --> 01:14:46.320
Dang, y'all.

1562
01:14:46.320 --> 01:14:47.160
He just put a chat in chat.

1563
01:14:47.160 --> 01:14:48.840
He's in the chat, Jackie, saying that he's here.

1564
01:14:49.640 --> 01:14:50.480
Oh, he is?

1565
01:14:50.480 --> 01:14:51.320
Okay.

1566
01:14:51.320 --> 01:14:52.160
All right.

1567
01:14:52.160 --> 01:14:53.000
I'm sorry.

1568
01:14:53.000 --> 01:14:54.720
Once again, I can't find anyone.

1569
01:14:54.720 --> 01:14:56.640
It should be in alphabetical order here,

1570
01:14:56.640 --> 01:14:58.280
because I usually should be able to type it in,

1571
01:14:58.280 --> 01:15:00.520
but it's just not working tonight, of course.

1572
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:05.240
So I'm looking, I'm looking, can you raise your hand so I can find you because you are

1573
01:15:05.240 --> 01:15:06.920
not in the D's.

1574
01:15:06.920 --> 01:15:10.640
I saw you earlier.

1575
01:15:10.640 --> 01:15:27.680
Turn on your camera for sure and that will bring you back up.

1576
01:15:27.680 --> 01:15:29.080
He raised his hand, Jackie.

1577
01:15:29.080 --> 01:15:32.000
Can you see him at the top?

1578
01:15:32.000 --> 01:15:34.240
Thank you so much.

1579
01:15:34.240 --> 01:15:37.640
All right.

1580
01:15:37.640 --> 01:15:41.400
All right, David, how are you?

1581
01:15:41.400 --> 01:15:42.400
Good.

1582
01:15:42.400 --> 01:15:43.400
How are you?

1583
01:15:43.400 --> 01:15:44.400
Good.

1584
01:15:44.400 --> 01:15:45.400
It's good to see you.

1585
01:15:45.400 --> 01:15:46.400
All right, ladies.

1586
01:15:46.400 --> 01:15:47.400
Okay.

1587
01:15:47.400 --> 01:15:48.400
We have David here.

1588
01:15:48.400 --> 01:15:51.640
He currently lives in Vegas and I'm going to let him go ahead and tell you all that

1589
01:15:51.640 --> 01:15:55.920
basic information, include the fun fact, and then we'll let the ladies ask you questions.

1590
01:15:55.920 --> 01:15:56.920
Okay.

1591
01:15:56.920 --> 01:15:57.920
Yeah.

1592
01:15:57.920 --> 01:16:02.440
I'm David, born in Phoenix, but raised in Vegas all my life.

1593
01:16:02.440 --> 01:16:03.480
I'm adventurous.

1594
01:16:03.480 --> 01:16:04.480
I love the outdoors.

1595
01:16:04.480 --> 01:16:06.120
I love music.

1596
01:16:06.120 --> 01:16:08.200
I play music.

1597
01:16:08.200 --> 01:16:09.200
I love anything outdoors.

1598
01:16:09.200 --> 01:16:13.600
I love lakes and rivers and anything fun outdoorsy.

1599
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:16.400
Yeah, I'm a good man.

1600
01:16:16.400 --> 01:16:21.240
I'm a responsible man and I'm just in the season of life where I feel like things are

1601
01:16:21.240 --> 01:16:23.760
changing and I'm ready for the change.

1602
01:16:23.760 --> 01:16:24.760
So yeah.

1603
01:16:24.760 --> 01:16:25.760
Awesome.

1604
01:16:25.760 --> 01:16:26.760
Ladies.

1605
01:16:27.520 --> 01:16:32.280
What questions do you have for David?

1606
01:16:32.280 --> 01:16:37.160
I am 36 years old, 36, never married, no kids.

1607
01:16:37.160 --> 01:16:38.160
Okay.

1608
01:16:38.160 --> 01:16:40.880
So, and you want a family, right?

1609
01:16:40.880 --> 01:16:41.880
Definitely.

1610
01:16:41.880 --> 01:16:42.880
Yep.

1611
01:16:42.880 --> 01:16:43.880
Right.

1612
01:16:43.880 --> 01:16:44.880
So ladies, that's going to be a non-negotiable.

1613
01:16:44.880 --> 01:16:45.880
He wants to have a family.

1614
01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:50.480
So if you're in the season of life where you want to also have babies and raise them, then

1615
01:16:50.480 --> 01:16:53.160
this is going to be a good match for you.

1616
01:16:53.160 --> 01:16:54.920
He is in Vegas.

1617
01:16:55.080 --> 01:16:57.960
I love lakes and rivers too.

1618
01:16:57.960 --> 01:16:58.960
Willingness to relocate.

1619
01:16:58.960 --> 01:17:00.760
And of course, everyone wants to know how tall you are.

1620
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:01.760
Sorry guys.

1621
01:17:01.760 --> 01:17:02.760
This is a common question.

1622
01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:04.840
Yeah, I'm 5'9".

1623
01:17:04.840 --> 01:17:07.640
Willingness to relocate, possibly.

1624
01:17:07.640 --> 01:17:11.400
It's not something I really want to do, but I'm open.

1625
01:17:11.400 --> 01:17:12.400
Right.

1626
01:17:12.400 --> 01:17:16.400
And you're like a prolific musician.

1627
01:17:16.400 --> 01:17:17.400
Yeah.

1628
01:17:17.400 --> 01:17:18.400
Yeah.

1629
01:17:18.400 --> 01:17:21.720
I've been playing music for 25 years.

1630
01:17:21.720 --> 01:17:24.040
I play a lot of different instruments and stuff.

1631
01:17:24.480 --> 01:17:26.920
I went to the Eagles concert at the Sphere.

1632
01:17:26.920 --> 01:17:27.920
Nice.

1633
01:17:27.920 --> 01:17:29.920
They are still so good.

1634
01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:30.920
I bet.

1635
01:17:30.920 --> 01:17:31.920
I bet.

1636
01:17:31.920 --> 01:17:32.920
I know.

1637
01:17:32.920 --> 01:17:33.920
They are.

1638
01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:37.280
I mean, I'm sure that, you know, they were taking, you know, some breaks and sitting

1639
01:17:37.280 --> 01:17:40.520
down, but they are still so good.

1640
01:17:40.520 --> 01:17:42.880
Just musically, it was just amazing.

1641
01:17:42.880 --> 01:17:45.320
What is your favorite outside activity?

1642
01:17:45.320 --> 01:17:50.800
Honestly, I just like being in the peace and quiet.

1643
01:17:50.800 --> 01:17:57.920
Just being by a lake or a river or fishing, or I like doing activities too, like skiing

1644
01:17:57.920 --> 01:18:02.960
or whatever, but just being out there is just so good for my soul.

1645
01:18:02.960 --> 01:18:10.040
And what is, people want to know what's your favorite food?

1646
01:18:10.040 --> 01:18:16.000
There's a place in Vegas called Brio, and they have a dish called spicy shrimp and eggplant.

1647
01:18:16.000 --> 01:18:19.400
And it is, oh my God, it is just so good.

1648
01:18:20.000 --> 01:18:21.000
You have to get it.

1649
01:18:21.000 --> 01:18:22.960
And you can dip, the sauce is so good.

1650
01:18:22.960 --> 01:18:24.080
You dip your bread in it.

1651
01:18:24.080 --> 01:18:25.080
It's just, it's miraculous.

1652
01:18:25.080 --> 01:18:26.080
Oh my gosh.

1653
01:18:26.080 --> 01:18:31.280
For those of you that know my daughter Reagan, who works for Last Year Single and her new

1654
01:18:31.280 --> 01:18:35.240
husband Trevor, does not, David reminds us of Trevor.

1655
01:18:35.240 --> 01:18:37.760
You're a lot like my son-in-law, it's very funny.

1656
01:18:37.760 --> 01:18:40.400
Are you willing to date long distance?

1657
01:18:40.400 --> 01:18:42.720
Again, I'm open to it.

1658
01:18:42.720 --> 01:18:44.640
It's definitely not a preference though.

1659
01:18:44.640 --> 01:18:46.560
I think it'd be pretty hard.

1660
01:18:46.560 --> 01:18:47.560
Yeah.

1661
01:18:47.560 --> 01:18:48.560
Can you dance?

1662
01:18:48.720 --> 01:18:49.720
Can you cook?

1663
01:18:49.720 --> 01:18:50.720
They want to know everything about you.

1664
01:18:50.720 --> 01:18:51.720
No.

1665
01:18:51.720 --> 01:18:54.160
I mean, I cook a little bit just to survive.

1666
01:18:54.160 --> 01:18:55.160
It's not my thing.

1667
01:18:55.160 --> 01:18:57.960
I actually don't prefer it because I eat so fast.

1668
01:18:57.960 --> 01:19:01.840
So it's like spend 30 minutes cooking and then eat it in three minutes.

1669
01:19:01.840 --> 01:19:02.840
It's not worth it to me.

1670
01:19:02.840 --> 01:19:07.160
So I try to just cook fast, but no, I'm very, I'm very talented.

1671
01:19:07.160 --> 01:19:09.960
I'm very active in a lot of different things, a lot of different hobbies.

1672
01:19:09.960 --> 01:19:13.680
I love pickleball too, that's changed my life.

1673
01:19:13.680 --> 01:19:18.760
My social life has changed in the last two years so dramatically just because of a little

1674
01:19:18.760 --> 01:19:19.760
sport like that.

1675
01:19:19.760 --> 01:19:20.760
I love that.

1676
01:19:20.760 --> 01:19:21.760
Yeah.

1677
01:19:21.760 --> 01:19:22.880
I'm a golfer too.

1678
01:19:22.880 --> 01:19:25.600
And so I do a lot of things for sure.

1679
01:19:25.600 --> 01:19:26.600
That's awesome.

1680
01:19:26.600 --> 01:19:28.080
Okay, ladies, what other questions do you have?

1681
01:19:28.080 --> 01:19:30.600
Oh, did you, did you say whether you could dance or not?

1682
01:19:30.600 --> 01:19:31.600
Someone's asked that more than once.

1683
01:19:31.600 --> 01:19:32.600
Never even tried.

1684
01:19:32.600 --> 01:19:34.480
Never even, never tried.

1685
01:19:34.480 --> 01:19:36.200
No type of dancing ever.

1686
01:19:36.200 --> 01:19:37.200
No.

1687
01:19:37.200 --> 01:19:38.200
Just play the music.

1688
01:19:38.200 --> 01:19:39.200
You don't dance to it.

1689
01:19:39.200 --> 01:19:40.200
Exactly.

1690
01:19:40.200 --> 01:19:41.200
Is that right?

1691
01:19:41.200 --> 01:19:42.200
Okay.

1692
01:19:42.200 --> 01:19:43.200
And I know you play the guitar.

1693
01:19:43.840 --> 01:19:44.840
Yeah.

1694
01:19:44.840 --> 01:19:45.840
Anything else?

1695
01:19:45.840 --> 01:19:46.840
Yeah.

1696
01:19:46.840 --> 01:19:49.000
I play, I play drums and keys and bass and sing as well.

1697
01:19:49.000 --> 01:19:50.000
So yeah.

1698
01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:51.920
Would you like to be married to a woman who's musical?

1699
01:19:51.920 --> 01:19:55.120
I'm not saying it's a criteria, but what do you think about it?

1700
01:19:55.120 --> 01:19:58.000
Honestly, no, not, not really.

1701
01:19:58.000 --> 01:19:59.000
I mean, sure.

1702
01:19:59.000 --> 01:20:00.000
If she, if she's.

1703
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:04.560
into that, but no, it's, it's not a priority, um, for someone that's more

1704
01:20:04.560 --> 01:20:10.120
of a, a helpmate and a partner wants to, uh, have the freedom to be adventurous

1705
01:20:10.120 --> 01:20:12.440
and travel and, and has that ability.

1706
01:20:12.780 --> 01:20:14.720
Um, so yeah, that's not a priority.

1707
01:20:15.700 --> 01:20:18.160
Um, and are you, are you a professional musician?

1708
01:20:18.160 --> 01:20:19.620
Like, does that how you make your living?

1709
01:20:20.220 --> 01:20:23.800
So I used to do, so I had my own little home studio for awhile.

1710
01:20:23.800 --> 01:20:27.260
I did that for about 10 years or so.

1711
01:20:27.360 --> 01:20:30.420
Um, uh, and bands would come over.

1712
01:20:30.420 --> 01:20:33.900
I'd track and record and produce their stuff, but I kind of got burnt out with

1713
01:20:33.900 --> 01:20:35.500
that because I wasn't doing my music.

1714
01:20:35.500 --> 01:20:39.860
And it was, um, it was just becoming more taxing than, than anything.

1715
01:20:39.860 --> 01:20:42.380
It was, it was not even my own creativity anymore.

1716
01:20:42.820 --> 01:20:44.620
Um, so I, I have not been doing that.

1717
01:20:44.620 --> 01:20:46.580
So I trade stocks now for, for income.

1718
01:20:47.100 --> 01:20:47.500
Okay.

1719
01:20:47.620 --> 01:20:48.140
Awesome.

1720
01:20:48.460 --> 01:20:50.740
Uh, our family does that type of stuff as well.

1721
01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:54.280
What are the top three qualities that you're looking for in a woman?

1722
01:20:56.280 --> 01:20:58.800
Um, that's a good question.

1723
01:20:59.040 --> 01:21:07.760
Um, I would say, I would say, uh, a sense of loyalty and kindness, say

1724
01:21:07.920 --> 01:21:15.240
probably some sort of entrepreneurial kind of vibe, like wants to make

1725
01:21:15.320 --> 01:21:19.720
something of herself, wants to, um, create your own income stream in one way or

1726
01:21:19.720 --> 01:21:20.140
another.

1727
01:21:20.620 --> 01:21:25.620
Um, and I would say probably, especially for the future, like, uh, someone

1728
01:21:25.620 --> 01:21:26.700
who would be a really good mom.

1729
01:21:28.060 --> 01:21:28.500
Love it.

1730
01:21:28.980 --> 01:21:29.260
Love it.

1731
01:21:29.260 --> 01:21:31.820
You guys, that is David in Vegas.

1732
01:21:31.820 --> 01:21:37.300
So put David Vegas in the line, in the subject line, if you know anyone

1733
01:21:37.300 --> 01:21:39.220
that David should meet, okay.

1734
01:21:39.460 --> 01:21:42.220
Um, he was a referral from someone that I know and trust.

1735
01:21:42.220 --> 01:21:44.100
That's how I met David in the first place.

1736
01:21:44.140 --> 01:21:48.860
And, um, I do believe that, um, he is everything that he appears to be.

1737
01:21:48.860 --> 01:21:51.260
And so he's going to be a great husband and father.

1738
01:21:51.600 --> 01:21:56.320
Um, and so if you know anyone that should meet David, if anything's coming to your

1739
01:21:56.320 --> 01:22:00.200
mind, to your spirit, if anyone's popping up beside, you know, even if it's not

1740
01:22:00.200 --> 01:22:04.160
you, then please message us and we will help make that connection.

1741
01:22:04.160 --> 01:22:05.520
David, thanks for joining me.

1742
01:22:05.880 --> 01:22:06.380
Thank you.

1743
01:22:07.240 --> 01:22:07.800
All right.

1744
01:22:08.200 --> 01:22:10.280
And he has been traveling all day and I've been trying to get you.

1745
01:22:10.280 --> 01:22:11.160
I have two guys left.

1746
01:22:11.160 --> 01:22:13.600
I have Mark and Phillip and they're both amazing.

1747
01:22:13.600 --> 01:22:15.160
So please hang out for both of them.

1748
01:22:15.160 --> 01:22:18.240
We'll try to get, get here in just the next couple of minutes.

1749
01:22:18.260 --> 01:22:20.780
Um, we're going to do Mark first since he's been traveling all day.

1750
01:22:21.020 --> 01:22:21.660
Hi, Mark.

1751
01:22:21.900 --> 01:22:22.940
Sorry for the delay.

1752
01:22:22.940 --> 01:22:24.120
I know you tired.

1753
01:22:24.120 --> 01:22:24.600
You're tired.

1754
01:22:24.600 --> 01:22:25.780
You've been traveling all day.

1755
01:22:29.100 --> 01:22:30.180
Uh, we can't hear you.

1756
01:22:34.300 --> 01:22:36.020
Hopefully we're going to get some sound here.

1757
01:22:42.260 --> 01:22:42.660
Oh,

1758
01:22:49.100 --> 01:22:51.660
you might want to just skip the earbuds and just go straight for it.

1759
01:23:05.740 --> 01:23:06.240
Okay.

1760
01:23:06.260 --> 01:23:09.180
As Mark's getting that figured out, we'll just go over here to Phillip.

1761
01:23:09.180 --> 01:23:11.300
Cause I know y'all we've been on here for a while now.

1762
01:23:11.660 --> 01:23:13.980
Um, Phillip.

1763
01:23:15.180 --> 01:23:15.680
Oh, wait.

1764
01:23:15.680 --> 01:23:16.500
I see Mark.

1765
01:23:45.680 --> 01:23:46.180
Okay.

1766
01:23:46.180 --> 01:23:47.300
Phillip, where's it going to go?

1767
01:23:47.300 --> 01:23:48.820
I'm trying to figure it out with Mark.

1768
01:23:48.820 --> 01:23:50.420
Mark, we're going to, we're going to figure it out.

1769
01:23:50.780 --> 01:23:51.580
This is Phillip.

1770
01:23:51.620 --> 01:23:52.380
Hi, Phillip.

1771
01:23:52.500 --> 01:23:53.980
Thanks for hanging in with us.

1772
01:23:54.220 --> 01:23:56.780
Go ahead and give us that basic information about yourself, including

1773
01:23:56.780 --> 01:23:59.020
the fun fact, and then we'll let the ladies ask some questions.

1774
01:23:59.580 --> 01:24:00.740
So my name is Phillip.

1775
01:24:00.800 --> 01:24:02.740
I am 38 years old.

1776
01:24:03.140 --> 01:24:08.860
I'm currently living in Athens, Georgia, and, um, I am never been to

1777
01:24:08.860 --> 01:24:11.060
the U.S. before, but I've been to the U.S.

1778
01:24:11.060 --> 01:24:17.320
I'm currently living in Athens, Georgia, and, um, I am never been married.

1779
01:24:17.360 --> 01:24:18.320
Don't have any kids.

1780
01:24:18.680 --> 01:24:23.320
I am moving to Athens, Greece, uh, in April.

1781
01:24:23.440 --> 01:24:26.120
So the fun fact about me is I'm a missionary.

1782
01:24:26.160 --> 01:24:29.400
I've lived in, um, three different countries.

1783
01:24:29.480 --> 01:24:34.760
I've lived in Israel, Jordan, and Turkey, learned Arabic, and I'm

1784
01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:36.360
a missionary to Arab Muslims.

1785
01:24:36.400 --> 01:24:38.640
So that's the fun fact about me.

1786
01:24:39.120 --> 01:24:39.620
Wow.

1787
01:24:40.000 --> 01:24:40.800
That's amazing.

1788
01:24:41.060 --> 01:24:45.040
I just realized that I know someone that went to my home church that also she's in

1789
01:24:45.040 --> 01:24:51.360
Iraq, but she is a missionary to, to, uh, to, uh, Muslims as well.

1790
01:24:51.400 --> 01:24:53.120
And so that might be a connection for you.

1791
01:24:53.320 --> 01:24:53.680
All right.

1792
01:24:53.680 --> 01:24:59.000
So you guys, what do you want to ask him besides, wow, that, that, that's a

1793
01:24:59.000 --> 01:25:00.320
very interesting conversation.

1794
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:05.760
Calling and ministry. And some people probably feel a little scared when you hear that.

1795
01:25:05.760 --> 01:25:14.520
But I will say this, I will say that I believe that God is moving all of his people around

1796
01:25:14.520 --> 01:25:20.360
to places because there is this beautiful kingdom age that is dawning. And so it's very

1797
01:25:20.360 --> 01:25:25.080
exciting. All right. So if you have a missionary heart, this is probably going to be someone

1798
01:25:25.080 --> 01:25:29.400
that you want to connect with because it doesn't really matter what people group is about having

1799
01:25:29.400 --> 01:25:34.080
a missionary heart. Okay. So what questions do you have? Did you get snow yesterday in

1800
01:25:34.080 --> 01:25:38.800
Georgia? They want to know. We did. It was just a little bit, but yeah, we got enough

1801
01:25:38.800 --> 01:25:44.600
to, uh, that I had an appointment that canceled because the doctor's office was, you know,

1802
01:25:44.600 --> 01:25:49.240
shut down for the day. So we had enough to, enough to cancel in Georgia, not enough to

1803
01:25:49.240 --> 01:25:56.200
do anything in Ohio. Ohioans are hardcore. They don't, they don't, that's a little, that's

1804
01:25:56.200 --> 01:26:00.880
nothing to them. What about Greece? How long are you going to be in Greece? People want

1805
01:26:00.880 --> 01:26:08.160
to know. Um, so I'm planning to go there longterm. I don't have any, um, end date. I'm going

1806
01:26:08.160 --> 01:26:13.680
to be a part of a ministry that ministers to refugees coming in from the middle East.

1807
01:26:13.680 --> 01:26:20.200
So I'll be there, um, until God says different. So, okay. And when are you planning on leaving

1808
01:26:20.200 --> 01:26:26.720
in April? Okay. So in April, he's planning on leaving and he does not have a return ticket.

1809
01:26:26.720 --> 01:26:31.960
Y'all he's going and staying, um, for right now. Okay. I know I'll be back a couple of

1810
01:26:31.960 --> 01:26:39.920
times, um, to the States in 2025 for sure in the summer. But, um, other than that, you

1811
01:26:39.920 --> 01:26:45.000
know, I don't have it several times, but at least with an organization or are you an independent

1812
01:26:45.000 --> 01:26:51.040
missionary? I I'm going with my denomination. So church of God, um, it's, it's like assemblies

1813
01:26:51.040 --> 01:26:57.240
of God. And so, um, I'll be going there. I have a community that, you know, will be around

1814
01:26:57.240 --> 01:27:01.480
me when I get there. So I'm not going on my own. Um, there's already a community center

1815
01:27:01.480 --> 01:27:07.440
that's doing ministry and I'll be joining them. Okay. That's awesome. Um, where's your

1816
01:27:07.440 --> 01:27:13.320
family from? My family's from Georgia. So, um, when I'm back in the States, Georgia is

1817
01:27:13.360 --> 01:27:20.000
kind of my home base of operations. All right. And how old are you? I am 38. So what do you

1818
01:27:20.000 --> 01:27:23.760
do in ministry? Like, you know, are you a preacher? Are you a teacher? Are you, you

1819
01:27:23.760 --> 01:27:29.080
know, like what, what do you do? Yeah. So, I mean, primarily I'm a minister, so I primarily,

1820
01:27:29.080 --> 01:27:34.320
um, it's teaching. So I do a lot of the, there's a lot of people getting saved in Greece, thank

1821
01:27:34.320 --> 01:27:40.840
God. And so I'll be doing a lot of the discipleship and teaching them in Arabic. Um, but that's,

1822
01:27:40.840 --> 01:27:46.160
that's my primary gifting. I have also, um, been a worship leader at different points.

1823
01:27:46.160 --> 01:27:50.240
So I enjoy music. I'm not as gifted as some of the other guys that were on here, but I

1824
01:27:50.240 --> 01:27:56.240
can carry a tune. So I love that. No. So you speak Arabic? I do. I studied it in Jordan.

1825
01:27:56.240 --> 01:28:02.520
So wow. That's some, that's really impressive. I'm super impressed by that. A lot of people

1826
01:28:02.520 --> 01:28:08.040
are admiring your heart. You guys. Um, I, I, I got a word. I don't know if any of you

1827
01:28:08.040 --> 01:28:12.000
are, you know, have been in this community long enough to remember. I know Bethany will,

1828
01:28:12.000 --> 01:28:17.480
that God gave me a word that he was partnering his missionaries so that he was getting, you

1829
01:28:17.480 --> 01:28:23.200
know, he was bringing in, uh, you know, spouses and partners for his missionaries that a lot

1830
01:28:23.200 --> 01:28:29.160
of them had sacrificed, you know, their years of their lives, those decades when other people

1831
01:28:29.160 --> 01:28:32.840
were getting married and building careers and families, they were doing the full-time

1832
01:28:32.840 --> 01:28:37.000
work of the ministry and of the Lord. And so they missed out on some of that stuff,

1833
01:28:37.000 --> 01:28:41.320
so to speak. And God said that, you know, as he is bringing this revival of marriage

1834
01:28:41.320 --> 01:28:46.400
and family, that his missionaries and his ministers would basically go first. And so

1835
01:28:46.400 --> 01:28:50.760
I just released that over you, Philip and anyone else that that pertains to. So if you

1836
01:28:50.760 --> 01:28:55.360
want, does anyone else have any other questions? Cause I know we're getting late here for Philip,

1837
01:28:55.360 --> 01:28:59.840
but, um, if you, if you want to know, if you want to know more about Philip, if you want

1838
01:28:59.840 --> 01:29:07.400
to connect with him and then put Philip and put Georgia in the subject line of the email

1839
01:29:07.400 --> 01:29:11.200
and give us your information, we would love to connect you. And if you know anyone, like

1840
01:29:11.200 --> 01:29:15.720
there's already a couple of girls that are coming to my mind. Um, cause I didn't even

1841
01:29:15.720 --> 01:29:20.620
know some of this stuff about Philip before tonight that I think that would be quality

1842
01:29:20.620 --> 01:29:25.840
introductions for him. So if you know anyone, someone's like, do you sense a future call

1843
01:29:25.840 --> 01:29:32.440
to Canada? Um, there's Muslims there too. That's true. You guys, he's just doing what

1844
01:29:32.440 --> 01:29:35.880
the Lord has told him to do. He has no idea what's next. And I appreciate that. Raise

1845
01:29:35.880 --> 01:29:40.760
your hand. If you feel like you're the kind of person that if God said, go, you would

1846
01:29:40.760 --> 01:29:46.840
go, even if you didn't know how or why or for how long, let's see the hands of Melissa

1847
01:29:46.840 --> 01:29:52.320
joy. I know that's definitely true for you. Okay. So look at all of those people raising

1848
01:29:52.320 --> 01:29:57.120
their hands. They're like, yes, yes. Lord choose me, send me, pick me. I would do it.

1849
01:29:57.120 --> 01:29:59.960
So that's a lot of ladies.

1850
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:03.800
Raising their hand there and gentlemen. Okay. So.

1851
01:30:03.800 --> 01:30:05.500
That's awesome. And it's awesome to know.

1852
01:30:05.500 --> 01:30:07.800
And I'm sure that that is encouraging for Philip. All right.

1853
01:30:07.800 --> 01:30:11.400
So there's a lot of people that are like, yep, I would do it. Okay.

1854
01:30:11.400 --> 01:30:15.300
So you don't have to be called to the Muslim people and you don't have

1855
01:30:15.300 --> 01:30:18.300
to necessarily be called to Greece. You have to be like, Hey,

1856
01:30:18.300 --> 01:30:21.300
I like that Philip guy and I'd like to get to know him better because

1857
01:30:21.300 --> 01:30:24.000
I'm willing to do whatever God shows me to do.

1858
01:30:24.000 --> 01:30:25.500
Guess what? He's not moving till April.

1859
01:30:25.500 --> 01:30:28.100
That's plenty of time to fall in love.

1860
01:30:28.100 --> 01:30:32.200
And so reach out to us if you want to get an introduction to Philip.

1861
01:30:32.200 --> 01:30:34.600
All right. Thanks Philip. Appreciate it.

1862
01:30:34.600 --> 01:30:35.700
Thank you.

1863
01:30:35.700 --> 01:30:39.000
All right.

1864
01:30:39.000 --> 01:30:42.300
These spotlights are so much better than the other kind because people

1865
01:30:42.300 --> 01:30:45.600
can actually hear you and see you and it is great.

1866
01:30:45.600 --> 01:30:49.200
I love it. All right, you guys, let's see if Mark is ready.

1867
01:30:49.200 --> 01:30:56.000
See if we figured out what was going on with his stuff.

1868
01:30:56.000 --> 01:30:59.700
I'm looking for you, Mark.

1869
01:30:59.700 --> 01:31:01.200
How can you hear me?

1870
01:31:01.200 --> 01:31:03.400
Yes, we can hear you.

1871
01:31:03.400 --> 01:31:10.300
There you are.

1872
01:31:10.300 --> 01:31:12.300
Or a step ahead of the game now.

1873
01:31:12.300 --> 01:31:13.600
Yeah, you are. Okay.

1874
01:31:13.600 --> 01:31:14.900
I may not be able to spotlight you,

1875
01:31:14.900 --> 01:31:17.300
but you're the only one talking and everyone can see you there.

1876
01:31:17.300 --> 01:31:19.100
So I'm trying to find your spotlight.

1877
01:31:19.100 --> 01:31:21.500
But in the meantime, hold on, let me see.

1878
01:31:21.500 --> 01:31:23.500
I'm going, I'm going, I'm scrolling up to the top.

1879
01:31:23.500 --> 01:31:24.500
Okay.

1880
01:31:24.500 --> 01:31:25.500
Okay.

1881
01:31:25.500 --> 01:31:26.500
There we are.

1882
01:31:26.500 --> 01:31:27.500
Finally.

1883
01:31:27.500 --> 01:31:28.500
Finally.

1884
01:31:28.500 --> 01:31:29.500
Okay.

1885
01:31:29.500 --> 01:31:38.500
Yes.

1886
01:31:38.500 --> 01:31:41.500
All right. So give us that basic info about you and then we'll let the

1887
01:31:41.500 --> 01:31:42.500
ladies ask some questions.

1888
01:31:42.500 --> 01:31:45.500
I do know that this man is another active man. You play baseball,

1889
01:31:45.500 --> 01:31:46.500
right?

1890
01:31:46.500 --> 01:31:47.500
That's correct.

1891
01:31:47.500 --> 01:31:49.500
I'm Mark. I'm 67.

1892
01:31:49.500 --> 01:31:52.500
I'm from Norman, Oklahoma.

1893
01:31:52.500 --> 01:31:53.500
And I'm married.

1894
01:31:53.500 --> 01:31:55.500
And I have a daughter.

1895
01:31:55.500 --> 01:32:01.500
So we left the house early this morning and headed to the airport. Now.

1896
01:32:01.500 --> 01:32:03.500
I landed in Dallas where I'm at my daughter's house.

1897
01:32:03.500 --> 01:32:04.500
That's her family.

1898
01:32:04.500 --> 01:32:06.500
And.

1899
01:32:06.500 --> 01:32:09.500
Something interesting.

1900
01:32:09.500 --> 01:32:11.500
Fun fact about me is that I can pass a polygraph.

1901
01:32:11.500 --> 01:32:15.500
Faster than most people.

1902
01:32:15.500 --> 01:32:17.500
I've had to do that several times in the course of my work.

1903
01:32:17.500 --> 01:32:18.500
Wow. Okay.

1904
01:32:18.500 --> 01:32:21.500
That's awesome.

1905
01:32:21.500 --> 01:32:23.500
And then ladies, you can ask any questions that you want to.

1906
01:32:23.500 --> 01:32:27.500
I believe he said he was 67 years old.

1907
01:32:27.500 --> 01:32:30.500
He's where, where do you live? You're visiting your daughter in Dallas,

1908
01:32:30.500 --> 01:32:32.500
but where do you live?

1909
01:32:32.500 --> 01:32:34.500
I live in Norman, Oklahoma.

1910
01:32:34.500 --> 01:32:36.500
Norman, Oklahoma.

1911
01:32:36.500 --> 01:32:40.500
Where are your kids missionaries in Mexico? Someone wants to know.

1912
01:32:40.500 --> 01:32:42.500
They are in a little town called.

1913
01:32:42.500 --> 01:32:46.500
It's in.

1914
01:32:46.500 --> 01:32:49.500
It's about two and a half hours Northwestern Mexico city up in the

1915
01:32:49.500 --> 01:32:51.500
mountains.

1916
01:32:51.500 --> 01:32:54.500
It was 50 something degrees in their house all week.

1917
01:32:54.500 --> 01:32:57.500
So I've been wearing sweats all that all week.

1918
01:32:57.500 --> 01:32:59.500
Oh, wow.

1919
01:32:59.500 --> 01:33:02.500
And you're a really active guy. You like to play like, you know,

1920
01:33:02.500 --> 01:33:05.500
like competitive baseball still.

1921
01:33:05.500 --> 01:33:08.500
Yes. I, I played.

1922
01:33:08.500 --> 01:33:10.500
Competitively at Baylor.

1923
01:33:10.500 --> 01:33:12.500
Back in the day.

1924
01:33:12.500 --> 01:33:15.500
And I was playing a lot of pickleball.

1925
01:33:15.500 --> 01:33:18.500
And I was a young lady who.

1926
01:33:18.500 --> 01:33:24.500
Dad had started a 60 and over a baseball league here in Oklahoma city.

1927
01:33:24.500 --> 01:33:25.500
And so I joined that.

1928
01:33:25.500 --> 01:33:28.500
A lot of those guys play in a softball league.

1929
01:33:28.500 --> 01:33:32.500
So I wound up playing softball as well.

1930
01:33:32.500 --> 01:33:36.500
And we did some traveling. We went to.

1931
01:33:36.500 --> 01:33:39.500
I quote world series and Phoenix, Arizona.

1932
01:33:39.500 --> 01:33:40.500
Play baseball.

1933
01:33:40.500 --> 01:33:47.500
And then we went to Vegas for two weeks to play softball.

1934
01:33:47.500 --> 01:33:50.500
Was out there for Vegas for two weeks in Phoenix for another week.

1935
01:33:50.500 --> 01:33:52.500
And we did some traveling during the, during the summer.

1936
01:33:52.500 --> 01:33:53.500
Softball tournaments.

1937
01:33:53.500 --> 01:33:59.500
That's awesome.

1938
01:33:59.500 --> 01:34:01.500
I know I saw some pictures of you playing baseball and I was like,

1939
01:34:01.500 --> 01:34:03.500
wow, I was like that, that man is, is fit.

1940
01:34:03.500 --> 01:34:04.500
All right. So ladies.

1941
01:34:04.500 --> 01:34:06.500
What else do you guys want to know about Mark?

1942
01:34:06.500 --> 01:34:07.500
Now that we finally got him up.

1943
01:34:07.500 --> 01:34:08.500
Yeah.

1944
01:34:08.500 --> 01:34:10.500
We got kids that he raised the right way, obviously,

1945
01:34:10.500 --> 01:34:12.500
because they're missionaries and.

1946
01:34:12.500 --> 01:34:17.500
And he.

1947
01:34:17.500 --> 01:34:19.500
It has taken his time to come here tonight.

1948
01:34:19.500 --> 01:34:20.500
And be with us.

1949
01:34:20.500 --> 01:34:26.500
And so that's great.

1950
01:34:26.500 --> 01:34:28.500
So are you retired? So people want to know, what do you,

1951
01:34:28.500 --> 01:34:30.500
what do you do for a living? Are you retired? What are you up to?

1952
01:34:30.500 --> 01:34:32.500
I am permanently unemployable.

1953
01:34:32.500 --> 01:34:36.500
So I've been self-employed for the last.

1954
01:34:36.500 --> 01:34:41.500
20 Years.

1955
01:34:41.500 --> 01:34:45.500
But I do it work. I set up computers. I do software.

1956
01:34:45.500 --> 01:34:50.500
Installations. I do networking, that type of thing.

1957
01:34:50.500 --> 01:34:53.500
And I've been in a nutritional business for the last 20 years as well.

1958
01:34:53.500 --> 01:34:55.500
So, so you're an entrepreneur and you own your own business.

1959
01:34:55.500 --> 01:34:57.500
Yeah.

1960
01:34:57.500 --> 01:34:58.500
All right. That's wonderful. That's that.

1961
01:34:58.500 --> 01:35:00.500
That's I like that answer.

1962
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:02.320
All right. And so are you widowed or are you divorced?

1963
01:35:00.500 --> 01:35:01.500
That's the right kind of answer there.

1964
01:35:03.840 --> 01:35:06.880
I'm widowed. I was married for 35 years. Uh,

1965
01:35:07.520 --> 01:35:09.840
he had breast cancer, died eight years ago.

1966
01:35:10.560 --> 01:35:13.120
Wow. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't know.

1967
01:35:14.160 --> 01:35:16.800
My mom, my mom died of breast cancer five years ago.

1968
01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:21.680
And so I know that pain and it's very painful.

1969
01:35:21.680 --> 01:35:24.000
So I love it that you were married for 35 years.

1970
01:35:24.000 --> 01:35:26.880
That means that, you know, you know what it's like to be married.

1971
01:35:26.880 --> 01:35:28.720
You know, it's not easy, but it's so worth it.

1972
01:35:29.520 --> 01:35:32.800
Will you date long distance is the next question that people have for you.

1973
01:35:34.320 --> 01:35:35.840
I'm willing to do that. Yes.

1974
01:35:36.560 --> 01:35:42.560
Okay. And are you, um, sorry, these questions keep going up.

1975
01:35:42.560 --> 01:35:45.280
What's your ideal, what's your idea of an ideal vacation?

1976
01:35:48.160 --> 01:35:54.240
Ooh, there's so many different things. Anything that, uh, involves nature. I've been to

1977
01:35:54.960 --> 01:36:00.240
some, you know, of the large cities, my, my entire family took a trip one time to

1978
01:36:01.120 --> 01:36:07.520
Africa and then spent a couple of weeks in Europe on a URL pass. And I found that the

1979
01:36:07.520 --> 01:36:15.280
cities are just cities, but, uh, God's beauty is everywhere out in the countryside. So I love to

1980
01:36:15.840 --> 01:36:24.000
ski or be out in nature, uh, sunset sunrises. I've got two or three pictures this week of

1981
01:36:24.000 --> 01:36:31.200
sunrise and all my alcohol. Uh, the, the skies were just gorgeous. We were up above the clouds,

1982
01:36:31.760 --> 01:36:34.960
uh, one morning. So we were looking down on the fog.

1983
01:36:35.840 --> 01:36:38.960
Oh, that sounds really pretty. Are you willing to relocate?

1984
01:36:41.120 --> 01:36:45.520
I could do that. And with the right person, the right circumstances.

1985
01:36:46.480 --> 01:36:51.360
All right. Look, y'all, he's super flexible. I know that all of you ladies are like

1986
01:36:51.920 --> 01:36:57.040
wanting to ask questions and, you know, go ahead. We just, you know, we're already over time anyway.

1987
01:36:57.040 --> 01:37:00.160
So go ahead and get it in there. Um, how tall are you?

1988
01:37:01.920 --> 01:37:08.160
Five, nine guys. I'm a firm believer that all men in America are five, nine. Okay. So get over

1989
01:37:08.160 --> 01:37:12.800
yourselves. They're five, nine. My husband is five, nine. Everybody's five, nine. That's how

1990
01:37:12.800 --> 01:37:17.440
tall men are. And then of course we have all these six footers that just kind of came out of nowhere

1991
01:37:17.520 --> 01:37:23.440
tonight, but normally, you know, that's the case. Um, I don't think that Gina, I don't think that

1992
01:37:23.440 --> 01:37:28.560
Mark has an age range. I think his range is whoever's in the same season of life as he is.

1993
01:37:28.560 --> 01:37:34.880
So he is, you know, he has been married. He's married for 35 years. He has adult children

1994
01:37:34.880 --> 01:37:39.520
that are serving the Lord. He's got grandchildren, you know, he's traveling, he's an entrepreneur.

1995
01:37:39.520 --> 01:37:43.040
So are you, if you're in the same season of life, we'll go ahead and ask you Mark,

1996
01:37:43.040 --> 01:37:47.120
just because sometimes may December romances happen. How would you feel about a woman who

1997
01:37:47.200 --> 01:37:51.120
is raising, you know, older children? She's got children that are still in the home.

1998
01:37:51.120 --> 01:37:59.360
How do you feel about that? I, that doesn't bother me at all. Uh, I'm really good with,

1999
01:37:59.360 --> 01:38:04.880
with kids, uh, especially the young ones, but, uh, my wife and I worked in the church nursery

2000
01:38:04.880 --> 01:38:11.920
for years and, uh, just love being around the little kids like that. Uh, the older kids,

2001
01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:19.040
I'm a CASA, a court appointed special advocate. Uh, and I joined, I volunteered for that because

2002
01:38:19.600 --> 01:38:25.360
I feel like I have a lot of, uh, good background that I can share with children

2003
01:38:25.360 --> 01:38:30.800
and help them to have a better life. That's great. That's wonderful. I love that. And do

2004
01:38:30.800 --> 01:38:37.360
you have a church community there where you live? Uh, I'm kind of been searching for a while. Uh,

2005
01:38:37.360 --> 01:38:44.720
the church that I was in, uh, both my kids met their spouses there. Um, my wife and I served a

2006
01:38:44.720 --> 01:38:50.320
lot there. I served after her death, but, uh, one day I was having a conversation with a man and,

2007
01:38:50.320 --> 01:38:56.960
uh, God just told me to move on. And yet I still haven't been able to find what a,

2008
01:38:56.960 --> 01:39:02.960
a good place to plug in. So I'm, I'm still bouncing around some and, but I, I do attend

2009
01:39:02.960 --> 01:39:09.680
regularly, just trying to find the place that really, and I can contribute to. Yeah,

2010
01:39:09.680 --> 01:39:14.640
I agree with you. Oh, David and I are in kind of in the same kind of season as you with that.

2011
01:39:14.640 --> 01:39:18.880
So, all right, ladies, if you have any other questions for Mark, you want to have a

2012
01:39:18.880 --> 01:39:24.320
conversation with him. You want to be introduced to him. Um, you are looking for the same things

2013
01:39:24.320 --> 01:39:31.120
that he's looking for the Mark from Oklahoma. Okay. Mark. Okay. Put that in a, the subject

2014
01:39:31.120 --> 01:39:36.240
line of your email. Don't forget to tell us who you are and give us some pictures of you.

2015
01:39:36.240 --> 01:39:40.320
So we can put a name with the face and we would be happy to make that introduction. If you can

2016
01:39:40.320 --> 01:39:43.840
think of any other ladies, you guys, we, there's a lot of people that are not here tonight in our

2017
01:39:43.840 --> 01:39:48.000
community. They're going to probably watch this and replay. That's wonderful. But if you can think

2018
01:39:48.000 --> 01:39:53.680
of someone that you're like, wow, that guy needs to meet my sister in the community. So-and-so

2019
01:39:53.680 --> 01:39:58.320
even if they're in phase two and they're not in phase three yet, make sure that you tell them

2020
01:39:58.320 --> 01:39:59.920
about this. And-

2021
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:03.740
You email in for them so that we can make that introduction, Mark.

2022
01:40:03.740 --> 01:40:06.780
Thank you so much with all the technical difficulties and all the travel.

2023
01:40:07.040 --> 01:40:08.480
Appreciate you coming on here.

2024
01:40:09.020 --> 01:40:09.460
Right.

2025
01:40:09.480 --> 01:40:12.120
You're a great guy and we're happy to have you here tonight.

2026
01:40:12.420 --> 01:40:14.760
So everyone, we had so much fun tonight.

2027
01:40:15.200 --> 01:40:15.620
Yes.

2028
01:40:15.620 --> 01:40:16.160
Thank you.

2029
01:40:16.440 --> 01:40:17.700
We had so much fun tonight.

2030
01:40:17.700 --> 01:40:18.820
I hope you guys had fun.

2031
01:40:18.820 --> 01:40:20.160
We're going to do more and more and more of this.

2032
01:40:20.160 --> 01:40:22.680
I believe that there's going to be some matches made from tonight,

2033
01:40:23.040 --> 01:40:25.020
probably more than just a few.

2034
01:40:25.380 --> 01:40:29.240
And remember, if they're not for you, they're for someone that you know,

2035
01:40:29.280 --> 01:40:31.880
someone knows someone who knows someone who knows your spirit mate.

2036
01:40:31.900 --> 01:40:33.840
That is our motto here at last year single.

2037
01:40:34.080 --> 01:40:38.520
And so play matchmaker community-based matchmaking, you play matchmaker

2038
01:40:38.740 --> 01:40:40.840
and let's make some introductions.

2039
01:40:40.900 --> 01:40:41.400
All right.

2040
01:40:41.440 --> 01:40:42.160
I love you guys.

2041
01:40:42.160 --> 01:40:43.080
Have a great night.

2042
01:40:43.080 --> 01:40:43.960
See you soon.
