We're going to be doing more and more fun phase three sessions with spotlights and dating
games and even online shuffles and different things where you will have the opportunity
to meet the men and women that are part of the last year, single community and family.
Some of them are part of the program last year, single first phase one, two, and three.
Some of them are private clients and some of them are people that are part of other
programs and different things that we have going on.
And so you're going to see a lot of new faces and I'm excited about that guys.
I had another guy from my guys group get engaged over the weekend.
And so very excited to announce that those guys are popping like popcorn over there.
And so very excited to announce that.
And you know, he had, he had a lot of moving pieces.
Let me say it that way.
So for those of you that feel like you're disqualified from a love story, because you
have a lot of moving pieces, I want to tell you, it's not true.
He'd been divorced.
He had an unfortunate story with that, that a lot of people probably would have dismissed
him or disqualified him because of but it wasn't, it wasn't anything he could control.
And so he had that going on.
He had some, from some odd dynamics with his former spouse, that is the mother of children,
more than one child, older children, and in lots of them that he was the sole proprietor,
the sole provider for.
And so just lots of things that a lot of you ladies, even though you're like, Oh, all I
want is to be married.
A lot of you would be turned off by some of those, some of those details simply because
Sounds like a lot of work.
That sounds like a lot of trouble.
That sounds like something I don't want to sign up for.
And I get it.
I understand.
And I remember thinking after I got married to David that man, blending a family sounded
so easy.
And yet now it is not, it is not.
And I want to let you know that we are here for you and we are blended family experts.
What does that mean?
We've walked through the fire with gasoline underwear on, and we have survived.
And so we know how to help you survive as well.
And we have so many beautiful partners and affiliates that have marriage ministries and
blended family ministries and blended family plans.
And then I believe that God has given us grace and anointing as well to speak into that.
So if you are in a serious relationship and you want to make sure that you are prepared
for anything and everything that can come at you in a possible engagement or marriage,
you definitely want to take our Simba's classes is a plug for our Simba's S Y M B I S it stands
for save your marriage before it starts.
Most people that come through this program that get engaged because of the teaching and
the coaching and matchmaking that happens here do take our Simba's or they take the
equivalent through their own church or spiritual community.
And it is a game changer, but I will say this about our Simba's.
We get into the nitty gritty.
We get into things that you're probably not going to have other dating or I'm sorry, other
premarital coaches actually get into because we know that there's a lot of bombs that we
want to defuse before they go off and explode and destroy a potential beautiful marriage.
And so we're going to help you do that.
And we have a lot of fun, you know, if it's not fun, I don't want to do it.
So there's a lot of fun as well.
Right.
So father God, I thank you, Lord, for this community.
I thank you for tonight.
I thank you for all of these single men and women, your sons and daughters, and for the
matches that you have for them.
I thank you, Lord, that hearts are open and that we are allowing you, Lord, to to help
us to be drawn towards and be attracted to the things that are best for us and the people
that are best for us as far in the area of partnership and all of the beautiful things
that you have for our future complementary opposites, because we are better together.
And we ask that tonight and let's have fun in Jesus name.
All right.
So you guys, this new single spotlight thing we're going to do, we usually pair that with
ask Jackie or love seats, which is my dating coaching session, but we're not going to do
that tonight.
All spotlights all the time.
Okay.
And so we're going to go ahead and let ladies go first.
So guys, I know that you're here and you're ready, but we're going to let our ladies go
first for those ladies that are like, Hey, how come those ladies get to be spotlighted?
Because in your phase three group, there was a post that was featured in the featured
section, the marked for announcement section that just said, Hey, we're going to do spotlights
on Thursday night.
The first 20 women that say, Hey, I'm definitely going to be there.
And I'm going to be ready to be spotlighted, are going to be chosen for this go around.
And so
That's how these 20 ladies got chosen, very random.
They were first come first serve, but don't forget, this is just the
first of many sessions like this.
So please don't have FOMO.
All right.
So lady's going to remind you, we want your name.
We want your age.
We want your location.
This is what you're going to share.
Write it down.
If you have to your name, your age, your location.
Um, whether you're, whether you're raising any children in the home still,
do you have kids at home still okay.
That you're raising and a fun fact about you and keep those fun facts
brief and powerful because we got a lot of people to get through tonight.
And then friends, for those of you that are in what my grandpa
would call the peanut gallery.
For those of you that are just in the general population tonight,
you're not being spotlighted.
Feel free to go ahead and post a fun fact about yourself.
You can post the same information, your age, you know, where you live,

adventurous heart that has led me places that has made my life a lot richer.
And one of those is I actually, my twenties went to Kiev Ukraine and I lived there.
I was a missionary there for almost two years.
And so, and when I say adventurous, I don't mean like a daredevil, like I
won't jump out of a plane or anything, but, but I do have that heart that just
kind of spurs me on into things that I'm super thankful because it's
made my life a lot richer.
So fun.

Um, there's a lot, so you have to find out more about one is, uh, I like to dance on
tall buildings vertically.
I feel like you have to explain that maybe just a little bit, people think it's for core
dancing.
Partly.
Yes.
So I do.
Um, I do dance.
I'm, um, I'm a trained performer and I've run a physical theater company as well, and
I love doing aerial dance as well.

I really love to learn and experience new things.
So something I do every year is plan a big international trip and I've had a lot of cool
adventures but I also try to always learn something when I go.
So I've done things like learn how to surf, learn how to cook different things in the
local cultures, take language classes, always trying new and different things when I travel.
I love that.

You're not yet.
You're good.
Okay.
I'm Julie.
I am 37 years young and I live in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, which is
about two hours West of Philly.
And an interesting fact is, um, the summer of 2020 in the middle of COVID, I
packed everything I owned in South Carolina into a box truck and I moved
550 miles to Pennsylvania to revamp my life.
And I absolutely love the North and I'm so glad that I did.

Thank you so much.
All right.
We have another Texas girl here.
Sorry guys, a little technical difficulty.
All right.
Um, Hmm.
It's not giving me the option to spotlight you, Lily.
Are you on camera?
Yeah, I am now.
Okay.
You are now.
Let me see.
There we go.
All right.
Lily is up right here in DFW.
Hey, I just moved to Fort Worth from Weatherford.
I sold my ranch.
I'm 52.
I'm an empty nester.
My, both of my children are adults.
And I'm a lifelong horsewoman.
So I come as a package deal with four legs and mine, not her four legs.
She's only how many, how, when you say horsewomen, just explain
a little bit of what that means.
I trained horses professionally for 20 years on the East coast from
New York to Florida, competing them.
And then now I'm, um, like an amateur non-pro and I purchased
a rating horse in September.
So I'll be competing her in the national running horse association
shows in Texas, Oklahoma, uh, kind of regionally where I am.
So exciting.
All right.
If you want to meet Lily and you're interested in, um, knowing more about
what it means to be a horsewoman, you can put her in the subject line of
your email, L I L L Y, and we would love to make that introduction for her.
I know Lily and I can vouch that she is so much fun and you definitely, if
you live in that area, want to take her on a date.
All right.
Let's see who we got next.
Um, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.
And I have Catherine get ready for the spotlight.
Oh, hi.
Catherine, that green is gorgeous.
Tell us all about you.
Well, hi, I'm Catherine and I am from
the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
I am 32 years old and I have never been married
and I don't have any kids.
Like a lot of other people, I love to travel.
I'm an adventurous person
and one of my favorite adventures happened in Norway.
I went on a hike called Jroltunga
where I got to experience every season.
Started out really hot and ended up snowing,
raining, sleeting, all the things.
It was an amazing adventure I'll never forget.
Wow, in Norway, that sounds beautiful.
So she is Catherine with a K.
She's also in the DFW area.
And so if you want to know more about Catherine
or if you just know someone that Catherine should meet,
that goes for all of these spotlights.
You know, maybe you're a lady
and you see one of these other ladies spotlighted,
your sister's in this community and you're like,
wow, I need to introduce her to my brother or my cousin
or my next door neighbor.
Then you also can email in and with that guy's information,
with his permission, of course,
and we would love to make those introductions.
So I felt like I needed to say that for that one.
And so let's make sure that we are
community-based matchmaking friends.
That is what we're here to do.
All right, so I have everyone on that list.
Next is Katie.
Guys, we have all of these.
We got Katie, we had Catherine,
we had Julie and Juliana.
So here is Katie.
Hear me?
Yes, we can hear you.
Hi, I'm Katie.

I'm really, yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
I mean, the transition's a little much,
but it's gonna be great.
I have a daughter at home.
I'm in North Central Pennsylvania,
so the Williamsport area.
I'm an architect by profession, and I love it.
And let's see, a fun fact.
So I don't own a TV, actually.
I'm not super tech savvy,
and I'm much more kind of like low-key that way.
And in a few weeks, I'm going to El Salvador
with my church on a missions trip.
We're gonna be building housing for women
who were rescued from human trafficking.
And then in a few months,
I'm going to Paris with my daughter.
So it's like our first big trip, super excited.
Just go big.
Go big.
I love it so much.
So there you have it.
Katie is living up there in Pennsylvania,
and she is single and ready to mingle.
She's got some great things about her there.
If you wanna meet Katie,
then make sure that you email us and let us know.

There's a game show out there that's missing their host,
and I think it's me.
I think it's me.
All right, let's go.

I love music, instruments,
just that's about it.
That's a lot.
That's a lot of good stuff.
That's Christine, you guys.

that you should be proud of.
Congratulations for both of you ladies

Congratulations, because I know what that is,
and that is a lot of work.
All right, so Lacey is next up.
Lacey in Colorado.
Hey there, girl.
Hi.
Thank you.
Yeah, my name is Lacey.
I live in Colorado Springs.
I'm 43.
I have no children and I've not been married yet,
but I grew up in Michigan,
which has nothing to do with children,
but I wanted to say that.
that. So I really love to be outdoors, and I'm thankful to
live in Colorado to have the mountains, but I also like the
water. An interesting or fun fact about me is that whenever I
travel to a different country or city, there are two souvenirs
that I look for. The first is a magnet because it's flat and
relatively light, so it doesn't take up a lot of space. And
then I'm reminded when I see that of the adventure that I
had there and the people that I met. And then if possible, I
like to find like a local yarn shop and buy yarn that has been
spun in that country or that place. So then I can make
something when I come home and remember the culture and the
people that I met there.
I love that. That is so beautiful and sentimental. And
I will forgive you from being from Michigan.
Yeah, it's been real hard for me not to say like, go blue, go
blue, whenever you're talking about Ohio.
I hear you.
I've refrained until now.
I hear that. I hear that. All right. In spite of all that, you
can still meet Lacey. L-A-C-E-Y. We will give her her spotlights
when they come through, even though, even though she said go
blue. All right. Who is next on our list? I don't want to make
sure I don't miss anyone. Melissa Joy. Hi there, girl.
Hi, my name is Melissa Joy. I will be 47 at the end of May
when I land in Austin, Texas. I currently am in Ohio. I about
10 years ago, I moved to Hawaii and I had an amazing encounter
with really good theology and grace. And so I left religion
and did life with God. And I told him, if I know that you
love me for anything, and when I land in Texas, it'll be 16
moves in the last four years. He is taking my word. I lived in
Paris, France for a while and trained as a pastry chef and
learning French and just added German to that. So definitely a
lot of fun. I would not mind living in France again, but for
now, going to Texas and not live in a suitcase for a little
while. It'll be really nice and no kids in the house. So that's
yes, that's awesome. Okay, she's taking the same kind of
trajectory as David and I from Ohio to Texas to Austin. And we
can't wait to get here. I think you're gonna love it. She's
polyglot. She speaks a couple languages. She's got all kinds
of stuff going on there that I think is amazing. And so if you
want to meet Melissa Joy, go ahead and email us and we will
make that introduction. Thank you, Melissa. Always good to see
you. All right. And Rhonda's up. Help me, Rhonda. Hi.
Hi. Okay, I was named after that song, by the way.
Of course you were because that's that makes all the sense.
And so you guys don't know those words. It's a love song and
Rhonda's got it. She's the girl. All right.
Okay, so my name is Rhonda. I'm 45. I've never been married. I
don't have any kids. I live in Youngstown, Ohio, which is just
about an hour from Cleveland. And it's also like an hour from
Pittsburgh. So I'm like kind of like in that Northeast Ohio
area. So I was going to do two truths and a lie for my fun
fact. My two truths and a lie would be that I have been to
every major ballpark in the United States. I have swam in a
volcano in El Salvador. And I have gone on a hike in Scotland
and gotten lost on a golf course. So you guys can figure
out which one you think is the lie. Put it in the chat. What do
you think? What do you think? Got lost on a golf course on a
hike and a golf course. Went on a went on a went to every
ballpark in the US swimming a volcano. Which one do you think
is the lie? What do we got? Who thinks what the golf course? I
mean, golf courses, you could get lost there depending how big
it is. You know, well, I took a hike in the mountains and I
ended up on a golf course. Okay, she got Oh, she went on a hike
in Scotland. Now everybody knows that that's not lost. Okay, so
that's the truth. So swim in the volcano is what people think is
the lie. No, actually, I did swim in a volcano in El
Salvador. So the lie is that I've only been to five of the
major ballparks. How many are there? Like 20 or 30. Okay, so
listen, guys, if you're into baseball, and you want to take
her to the rest of these ballparks, we need you to email
us and put Rhonda in the subject line so that she's not out lying
in these streets. We don't want her lying out here. Okay, make
it true. Make it true.
Rhonda, we're so glad to have you.
We always love redheads around here.
So if you guys want to meet Rhonda,
make sure that you message us
because we'd love to introduce her.
Okay, we just got two more
and we're gonna get to our guys.
Sarah, you're up.
Hello, I'm Sarah Beth or Sarah.
I answer to either one.
I live in Wise, Virginia
and that is in the mountains of Virginia.
As you can probably hear,
I have a little bit of a Southern drawl.
I do have children in the home
and I'm 40 years old.
And some fun facts about me
is that I lift weights regularly.
I have a home gym, a garage gym
that I absolutely love.
And I roast my own coffee beans at home.
I've been doing that for several years.
I cannot tell you the last time
that I bought a bag of coffee in the grocery store.
My friends may or may not call me a coffee snob
but I kind of like to think of it
as more of a coffee connoisseur.
So anyway, and also I play the keyboard
and I sing and I'm a worship leader, so.
That's awesome.
Those are such beautiful, fun facts.
So if you like to work out
and you like coffee and you like worship
then Sarah is your match.
So let's make sure,
and you don't have to be able to do any of that yourself.
She will do it, but you do have to be fit, all right?
Or you have to wanna get fit.
So Sarah with an H, S-A-R-A-H.
And just got to put Sarah Beth just in case
cause we have a lot of Sarah's in this community.
Sarah Beth in the subject line
and we would be happy to introduce you to Sarah.
Sarah, thanks for joining us.
All right, we have last female spotlight.
Last female spotlight is our own, our own Stacy.
Hello, hello Jackie D.
Texas.
Hello, Stacy V.
My name is Stacy and I live in Austin, Texas.
I'm 53 years old.
I have no children.
I was married once, but that was about 10 years ago.
And a fun fact about me is I'm from Wisconsin.
So if you're from Wisconsin
that means that you are born loving the Green Bay Packers.
And this summer, me and my friends
got a private tour of Lambeau Field
because we went to high school
with the field manager of the Green Bay Packers.
So that's a fun fact.
I am involved in my church.
Love that.
I have great relationships and community
and I love friendships.
I love leadership.
And my favorite go-to karaoke song is Pat Benatar's
Hit Me With Your Best Shot.
Hit me with your best shot.
I love it.
When Stacy and I introduced her,
when I introduced Stacy, did anyone kind of hear the,
hello Newman?
Hello Jerry.
Did you guys hear that?
Stacy and I really love each other,
but if you're a Seinfeld fan,
that's what it reminded me of.
And I thought it was funny.
All right.
Stacy is fun.
She's funny.
She is being very humble right now.
She is so well-known in the city.
She is an Austin mascot almost.
She knows so many people and so many people love her.
She is a leader of leaders.
And I am so blessed that she is my friend
and that she is in this community.
And so if you want to meet Stacy,
S-T-A-C-E-Y, no, just Y.
S-T-A-C-Y, Texas.
Put Stacy, Texas.
Cause we do have some Stacys in this community.
Make sure that you email us
because we want to make that introduction for sure.
All right, ladies, thank you so much for joining us.
I see a lot of people shared their information in the chat
and I love that.
And we're going to get to the guys.
All right.
We are going to get to the guys here.
And I think what I'm going to do,
let's see, we have about 25 minutes left in this session.
I'm going to let you ask the guys questions,
but ladies, I want you to keep it basic.
I don't want you to go deep into the rabbit hole
of wanting to know stuff about them
that you wouldn't ask on a first date.
If you wouldn't ask it on a first date,
then don't ask it here.
Okay.
If you wouldn't feel comfortable,
some of y'all are bold though.
So I might not even say that
cause some of y'all are bold.
Okay.
You might ask for someone's tax returns on a first date.
I know some of you guys.
All right.
So let's put it this way.
If someone with good boundaries
wouldn't ask it on a good date,
on a first date, then don't ask it.
Okay.
Think, what would someone with good boundaries do?
And then do that.
All right.
And so I'm going to go ahead and spotlight our first guy.
We used to do them on a panel, you guys,
but I'm going to do them one at a time
and I'm going to try to get through them all
in good timing here.
But first up, and when I get you up here,
this is Dustin, when you get up here,
I want you to give those same facts,
you know, what's your name?
Where are you from?
Have you ever been married?
Do you have any kids?
And some kind of fun fact,
and then we'll let the ladies ask the rest of the questions.
How's that?
Dustin, those eyes, those eyes, Dustin.
And ladies, they're a little blue.
They're a little blue.
OK, go ahead and tell us those fun, those basic bio
facts about yourself.
My name's Dustin.
I live in North Dallas.
I am 42 years old, never married, no children.
Oh, and fun fact, I will say that I
have done a lot of work in the Middle East recently,
one of which is a project working
for the Prince of Saudi Arabia.
Though I've never met him and never would,
it's just not part of the process.
Wow, is he single?
He, I'm sure, has quite a few lady friends.
Lady friends, yes, got it.
All right, you guys, so those are the basic info
about Dustin.
He's right here in Dallas, Texas.
So let's let the question asking begin.
I know you all got some questions for him.
People are like, hey, Dustin, hey.
All right, let's see, let's see, let's see.
I see that, Kenton, you're funny.
Willing to relocate, Dustin?
That's your first question.
Oh, that's a tough one.
I have not thought about it that much,
just because my whole family is fairly close.
And so I wouldn't say it's a possibility.
I would just say that it is a very low percentage.
OK, so he's entrenched, you guys.
He's embedded.
He's not saying never.
He's just saying it's unlikely, unless, of course,
God would move on him and all the things.
Guys, I know you didn't ask this,
but I'm going to say this, because so many of you
ladies are like, oh, how tall is he?
He's 6'5", is that right?
Did I get that right in my head?
Yes, that's correct, yeah.
6'5", y'all.
That's a tall man.
OK, and we know that, because tall Paul is here tonight.
And he's got you beat by like 2 inches, Paul.
You got 6'6", 6'7".
What are you?
You guys, you know why I love that?
Because I'm 5'10", and these men make
me feel small and dainty, which never happens to me.
All right, let's see.
Talk about the art behind you.
The women want to know, because you're creative, Dustin.
Aren't you creative?
Generally, yeah.
I've traveled quite a bit, and so I
have lots of photos in my house.
So those are some that I've taken,
and I have quite a few others in other parts.
He did take those photos, ladies.
You're asking about that, so yes.
Yep, so just fun memories from fun trips.
And so I always travel with my camera, despite the weight.
And just take pictures for myself for fun, so.
Love that so much.
Favorite athletic activity?
I've played a lot of basketball.
I'm actually playing basketball later tonight in like two hours.
OK.
In men's league, though I kind of retired,
and then people keep pulling me back in, and I don't know.
I'll probably play until I hurt myself too bad,
and then decide never to do it again.
But I grew up doing quite a few sports like most guys did.
OK.
And what about long distance?
How would you feel about getting to know someone long distance?
I think it would just take a lot of effort on both people's
parts to be intentional and actually give it a try.
I don't know.
Seems difficult. I've done a, you know,
David, someone that was a number of hours away.
And I mean, it was fine for a short while,
but then you just have to make, like, try to see each other.
It's kind of hard if you just never see each other
and try to actually, like, have a relationship.
So that's the trick.
Long distance, you got to be all in, y'all.
You guys know it has to.
You have to really know that it has a lot of potential
in order to invest that time and energy and money.
Someone wants to know exactly what your work is.
You're an architect, right?
Yes, I'm an architect.
I design hotels and resorts, and I've
done that for like 20 years.
And then I've started designing high end homes on the side.
So I've done a few.
Favorite food and favorite place you've traveled.
Favorite food?
Oh my goodness, sadly, I'm gluten free now.
So I'm just going to go with, I'm from Nebraska.
And so steak and sweet corn is probably perfect.
Favorite place I've ever traveled.
It changes frequently.
I would probably say Cambodia or Botswana,
or I don't know, somewhere with water.
I love going to Kauai.
That's Kauai right there, a little private beach.
So it just changes on the mood or what the conversation is.
But most of my trips have been enjoyable.
So I don't have that many that have been not in contention
for one, my favorite trip.
OK, that's awesome.
Someone wants to know your favorite camera lens.
I have a 24 by 70 for my Sony, which I am getting used to now.
I miss having a larger zoom, but with a larger zoom,
something like a 200 millimeter, it just adds so much weight.
But I have one of those for my old camera
that I still enjoy because it's just fun to zoom in on things.
Yeah, no, absolutely. Okay. So that is what we're going to ask Dustin for now,
because we have a guy that needs to leave in five minutes for worship practice.
So we're going to get to him. So Dustin, thanks for joining us. A lot of people interested ladies,
Dustin is 42. He's never been married. Doesn't have any kids and he wants to get married and
have children. Um, so if you were, you know, also in the baby making frame of mind, you know,
you want to build a family with someone, um, then that is going to be the first kind of non-negotiable
here. Also, we're trying to stay local with this match at first. Okay. And so if you're local within
a, you know, two and a half, three hour drive of Dustin, and you are in that same season of life
where you're wanting to have children, uh, and build a family, then we would love to hear from
you. Okay. And then of course, all the other artsy creative, wonderful things we want you to have,
you know, those in common, I will tell you, Dustin is a sapiosexual. So he likes, he's got a little
sarcastic sense of humor. He likes to have, you know, good conversation with someone. And so that
is going to be really important in this match. So if you're witty, okay. And you're pretty,
then we want to hear from you. All right. And so go ahead and email us Dustin. Thanks so much for
joining us. I appreciate it. And I want to go ahead really quickly before he's got to run away
and get Mike up here. Oh, you guys, um, well, good grief.
And you know, the it department just left.
All right. Let me go ahead and scroll for it then. Hold on a second. Y'all
we're going to get there. It's not letting me type in anything.
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.
Good to see you. All right. Just those facts about yourself, where you live. We just said
Canada Edmonton, your age. Have you ever been married? Do you have any kids and a fun fact?
Yeah. So I'm in Alberta. I'm 39 years old. Um, fun fact, uh, I've been doing worship since I was
about, uh, 10 years old. Um, I just recently got a job, uh, as a worship pastor, um, at a church
in Alberta doing that full time. Uh, I love to travel up into about five or six different
countries. My favorite was Malaysia. Um, probably some of the best food and best people I've ever
met and ate. Um, and yeah, I, that's probably it for now. Do you, do you,
when you lead, when you lead worship, do you lead worship and do you sing,
do you play an instrument? What do you do? Yeah, I lead, I sing and I play guitar when I lead,
but I play different instruments. Like I played drums, guitars, bass, piano,
sing. So, but when I lead, yeah, I sing and play guitar. That's awesome. What's your favorite
worship song? Gratitude by Brandon Lake. Hey, I love me some Brandon Lake. That's awesome.
Okay. And let's see, uh, people are going to want to know. So are you interested in dating
one from the States? You looking only for Canadian ladies? What do we, what do you think about that?
Yeah, I actually lived in the States for about 12 years. Um, so I just recently moved back from
California, so I'm definitely open to meet some from the States along and do long distance. Um,
yeah. So. Okay. You guys, he's open and can you, can you remind them of your age?
I'm 39. I just turned 39 on the 21st. So. Okay. Just turned 39. And so, and I'm assuming that
you don't have any kids and you would like to have. Yeah. So no kids never married. Yeah.
So, so ladies, once again, he's in that season, remember we don't match ages, we match seasons.
So he's in that season of wanting to start a family, build a family with someone. Um, he is
willing to do long distance and, uh, we just give us two more hobbies besides worship two other
things that you're interested in. I love outdoors. I love to hike. I hike frequently. Um, I love like
backpacking trips, hiking trips. Um, I love sports. I've been playing soccer since I was like
six years old. So I played pretty competitively, uh, in high school and as an actually still
currently play on a team. Um, so love sports hikes, um, anything outdoorsy. I love outdoorsy.
So summer sports, winter sports, uh, skiing, snowboarding, I love lakes tubing, water skiing,
uh, all those things. So, yeah. Awesome. I was actually just writing someone down that I think
you should meet. Okay. All right, Mike. We're so glad that you're here. Be blessed in your worship
practice. And if you guys want to meet Mike from Canada, make sure you put that in the subject
line. Cause we have a lot of mics. Um, then please write into us. Thanks, Mike. Have a great night.
Thank you. Bye. All right, ladies, we got some good looking men up in here and it's not going to
end because I see this list in front of me. It's just going to get just, it's just great. All of
it. Okay. All right. So let me just cross it off my list, especially since I can't pull up people's
names right now. What the heck is wrong with my situation? Oh, the IT department.
Eat it right now.
All right.
So we're going to go back to, since someone said go blue, I think
we're going to go back to OH.
Let me hear it.
Right.
You guys, this is drew from Columbus, Ohio.
True.
We're going to start out with just those basic facts that everyone else is sharing.
And then we'll let the ladies ask questions.
Yeah, absolutely.
Good evening, everybody.
Uh, my name is drew, uh, live here in Columbus.
42 years old.
Um, never married, no kids.
Um, definitely, um, want to have those experiences.
So, um, that is definitely in my future.
Um, God willing.
Um, fun fact about me is, um, I'm a very competitive person.
I played college athletics and, um, I've had eight surgeries, um, since through
my time in sports and athletics, um, and to carry over some of my competitive
passions within the last year, um, I started doing, uh, motivational and
inspirational speaking, um, to high school athletic teams in and around
the Columbus area here, really relying on the word of God, um, and incorporating
that into, um, the speeches that I've given to local, uh, athletic teams.
That's awesome.
You guys have fun.
All right.
So we got someone who cares about young people.
Um, some eight surgeries are like, Oh, what, what's, what's like
the biggest surgery you had?
Oh, wow.
Um, the biggest one that I had, let's see, I've had both hips operated on.
I've had a hamstring, a thumb, um, an ankle, a knee.
I'd say probably the hamstring was probably the worst one that I've had.
Completely tore it off the bone.
They had to read.
Oh, you guys, this is the dirty little secret of high school and college sports.
And no one tells anybody about it and the joint pain that you have
when you're older, right?
But you guys, he is all put back together.
He's now the bionic man.
And so it's going to be okay.
All right.
So ladies, go ahead and start asking those questions.
What about long distance?
What do you think about it, Drew?
Um, yeah, I think it all comes down to the level of commitment, right?
Um, you know, long distance.
Couple hours, maybe.
Um, anything outside of that would really have to be exploratory, but, um, I
never say no, uh, until there's conversations that are had.
Yeah.
It's called it's a yes until it's a no.
And you got it, Drew.
You nailed it.
What is your favorite sport?
Uh, football.
Football.
Okay.
Football.
And besides, do you know, obviously Ohio state, but, uh, what's your favorite
protein?
Yeah.
I'm big, big Denver Broncos fan grew up loving the orange and blue.
John Elway was my, uh, childhood hero.
Yeah.
Awesome.
Okay.
For those of you that are asking about, um, we have guys of all ages tonight.
So let the millennial ladies have their due.
And then I will bring on, um, some more seasoned men for y'all too.
So don't worry about that.
For those who have city or country, someone's asking you city or country.
City boy or a country boy.
Yeah.
Uh, I was raised the country boy, but, um, I'm so ingrained.
I've been so ingrained in the city for the last, you know, 15, 18 years or so
being down here in Columbus, that, um, pretty much a city boy, but my
folks still live in the country.
So a little bit of both best of both worlds.
Now, because you like sports so much, do you think that you could be
compatible with a woman?
Who's not into watching sports?
Of course.
Okay.
So for those of you that are asking, do I have to be into sports too?
No, you don't got to be into sports too.
What are some other hobbies that you have?
Um, that you just enjoy doing.
Yeah.
Um, I love the golf, love to travel.
Um, I love concerts and music.
That's, um, a really big, um, activity for me, especially in the summertime
where we can get outside and go, go enjoy a nice show outdoors.
Um, yeah, those would be three of the big things I would say.
What kind of music?
Uh, a range.
Uh, I love gospel music.
Obviously that's kind of my, my Zen music.
Um, early in the day when I'm preparing for my day, when I'm in the car
traveling, it's gospel, uh, like country, um, country rock.
Um, that's really where I kind of hang my hat at.
Um, but I can listen to almost anything.
Yes.
Okay.
I love that.
I'm like that too.
I can listen to almost anything too.
What's the most inspiring thing you've experienced while working with kids?
Wow.
That's a great question.
Um, just the level of commitment that they have to one another at such an early
age, um, the commonality of goals that they set for themselves and the
willingness to, to all work together to achieve those goals.
Um, and no matter who I talk to, whether it's a football team or a lacrosse
team or a cross country team, um, they all have common objectives, uh, and
they all are working towards one goal and to see them rally around one another.
Um, and I'll try to achieve that goal.
Uh, it's really inspiring to see some.
what's happening from our youth.
Yeah, no, I agree with you.
I feel like that's so inspiring.
In fact, I loved how cohesive
this year's Ohio State team was.
You know, they loved God.
They weren't afraid.
Every time they got the microphone,
they were like, I gotta say,
you know, gotta thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
You know, they weren't afraid
to not just exhibit their faith,
but their love for their team and their country
and each other and their coach.
And I was just really,
I was really rooting for them to win for that reason,
nothing to do with just it being my home state.
I was just like, that's a really quality group of guys.
So love that.
But yeah, the revival.
And a revival, yeah.
They had a revival, I heard that.
They had a revival, so it's so cool.
A lot of those guys attend my church as well.
So I see those guys.
Oh, wow.
Pretty much on a regular basis, yeah.
Yeah, so you love going to church?
You serve at your church?
I do, yep.
Serve on the volunteer teams on Sunday mornings.
I usually serve for the nine o'clock service
and I sit the 11th.
I'm involved in youth groups, men's groups, small groups,
just really try to be as active as what I can.
That's what actually kind of sparked
and led me to motivational speaking,
was a connection that I formed through that,
through a local coach.
And it just kind of took off from there.
I love that.
Well, you guys, if you know anyone in Ohio,
you think that would be Ohio or any area around there,
Indianapolis, Cincinnati,
because he's in Columbus, Cleveland.
We have a single city, Cleveland and Columbus.
So if you know anyone that you think that Drew should meet,
definitely email into us.
And if you should meet Drew,
if you are wanting to build a family, raise a family,
wanting to be a Buckeye,
then definitely email into us.
Drew, thanks so much for being here.
Thank you, Jackie.
Drew, we have mutual really close friends.
So Drew is good friends with my lifers,
people I've known since I was like 19 years old.
And I'm telling you, he comes with good references.
Okay, so if you're like, man, he seems too good to be true.
He's not.
Okay, so, and for all you ladies that are like,
are there any good guys left in the world?
Yeah, as you can see tonight, there are.
All right, let me get another Texas,
another Texas going on here.
Chad from San Antonio, you're up in the spotlight.
Hi, Chad.
Can you hear me?
How are you?
I caught you off guard.
I'm like, hi, Chad.
You're like, wait, it's me.
I'm like an unfolded lawn chair right now.
My goodness gracious.
It was like being on the kiss cam,
but you're like, wait, it's me.
Right, totally.
So I'm Chad.
I'm from San Antonio, Texas.
Live here now, 51 years old, have two kids.
My son is 16 and he just got accepted
on the worship team, by the way.
That's awesome.
22 year old daughter that is going to be married
that we just were talking about wedding plans
just yesterday.
And so that's, I can't believe my daughter's
getting married.
I can't even believe I'm saying that,
but just amazing kids.
What else?
She gave us like five things to remember.
I can only remember.
A fun fact, a fun fact.
So I'm gonna, I'm a talker,
so I'm going to give you three.
Fun fact is I've been in the same business line of work
for 30 years.
And the Lord called me just a short while ago
to start a business in real estate on the side.
And when God does something, as you know,
he kicks the door wide open.
So July, I didn't have any properties
and we are actually closing on our fourth tomorrow.
It's just been exploding.
It really has.
I'm very, very much deep rooted in the country.
Whether it's building projects out of metal,
team roping, whatever, building fence, whatever.
Love doing all that.
And the last two summers,
I've been on mission trips to England.
Wow, that's awesome.
What, did you go to Oxford?
What part of England did you go to?
Oh, we went to Brighton, just south of London.
Okay.
My daughter went-
I just started a podcast about two years ago too.
You did, you started a podcast.
And what's that about?
Just a Christian podcast.
It's just about encouragement,
just to let all God's children know that they're loved.
I love it.
Stacey, Stacey here in Austin is asking
what type of missions did you do in England?
So, because everybody's over there are atheist,
that literally evangelism is 100% my spiritual gift.
So I don't know when to stop talking
and where the off button is.
So you talk to everybody over there
that literally has skipped a generation.
So you are just almost like street evangelism.
Okay.
Yeah, I know.
That sounds great.
Now, of course,
all the ladies always want to know how tall people are.
6'2".
All right, you guys got some tall oak trees in here tonight.
I love San Antonio, beautiful area.
Yes.
Does Chad want to have me on his podcast?
Stacey, who's here that I said is the leader of leaders
here in Austin.
She said, does he want to have me on his podcast?
I'm sure he does.
We'll connect you guys for that reason.
Okay.
Any ever come to any ropings in North Texas?
I actually went to a school up there in Decatur, but I've not
been to an actual roping up there, but I went to a school out in Decatur.
All right.
Well, our resident horse woman, Lily would love to invite you to that.
I'm sure you guys can get a rope and go in what age group of, uh, okay.
That's I think that's for Drew.
Um, everyone wants to know the name of your podcast.
We're going to come listen to it.
Living water, Christian podcast.
You living water, the whole word, uh, the whole thing, it comes up.
Okay.
Favorite book you've ever read.
Are you a reader or do you, or you could say, yeah, so later in life, uh, I've
definitely, uh, man, I don't know.
I read a lot of like motivational books, uh, books by, by pastors.
Um, I'm going to say the one I'm reading right now is the, um, the, the Rick
Warren one, um, purpose-driven, uh, life that is, that's a good one.
It is.
It's very, very good.
Yeah, it's a good, it's an oldie, but goodie for sure.
All right.
Okay.
Ladies, you have any other questions for Chad?
He's just right here in San Antonio, Texas.
San Antonio is beautiful.
Love San Antonio.
Um, he obviously serves at his church.
Passionate about the Lord has a great podcast.
You guys can go and get to know him better as you listen to that.
If you want to meet Chad, then you can just email us and drop Chad and put,

It's been around this community for a while now out in California.
Timothy, welcome to single spotlight.
Timothy's out in Reading.
We're going to go ahead and let you answer those basic questions that
everyone else has answered, and then we'll let the ladies ask you some.
Sounds good, Jackie.
I just think you're ready for radio.
That's what I'm hearing this whole time.
I've been writing down some of the phrases like seasoned man.
Okay.
Am I seasoned man?
What's I don't know.
Like what's going on now?
I'd listen.
I'm picking randomly from my list.
Yeah.
I've really enjoyed this.
And I also enjoyed the, like the positive comments.
I see people sending out.
I think that's great.
You know, that people are just encouraging everyone.
Yeah.
My name's Timothy.
I'm 49.
I live out in Reading.
I go to Bethel church.
I'm a database programmer, not the most exciting, but it pays the bills.
And, uh, I like doing artwork.
And, um, one of my favorite things to do on the weekends is play pickleball.
So that's, uh, something that I love playing pickleball.
Um, and I'm on the prophetic teams at Bethel.
So that's my main gifting is to do prophetic ministry.
And, uh, I do, uh, mountains is my main thing.
I lived in Colorado Springs for a while.
So painted mountains and was in a couple of galleries out there.
And so getting back into painting mountains and, uh, doing that.
Um, what else?
Oh, yeah.
I wrote down like my number one priority is putting God first in my life.
So God is, uh, definitely my number one priority in my life.
Um, I do, uh, I'm starting to do videos of the, uh, prophetic ministry
that I do on Sundays where I'll put like certain stories into a prophetic.
Bang.
And then I'll use some AI to generate videos of what I felt
like I was seeing in the spirit.
And, um, yeah, I'm six foot four.
Try and think of all the questions.
Um, you guys are all so tall.
My good.
Yeah.
Um, I, I like working in acrylic because it's fast, uh, opposed to like oil, which
takes a really long time to dry and it's really smelly, so I mainly use it acrylic
with an extender in there to make that paint.
Uh, yeah, it's great being out here in Bethel reading.
I work remotely, so I'm able to do that.
And, um, yeah, it's
you haven't been out there for very long.
How long have you lived there?
It's around four months right now.
Um, yeah.
Would you be willing to relocate again?
I am open to it.
I think if it was the right situation.
Um, yeah, I think that's my ultimate goal is to be married and have kids still.
And, um, just enjoy life together, be able to laugh.
That's another big thing.
Um, two of my biggest things I'm six foot two barefoot.
That's funny.
Um, some of my big things is being able to laugh together and have a, like a long
lasting.
conversation and then also being able to work through conflict. Those are my two number one
things that I look for. But, um, You guys, Timothy has done the work. Okay. He's done the work. He,
like I said, he's been around here for, you know, I've known him for a couple of years now and he's
definitely done the work. The heart work is what I'm talking about. He's dig, he's dug into his
stuff, you know, everyone needs to do that. And so he is ready to make a connection. All right.
So it seems like he was able to look at all your questions. So it sounds like he answered
most of them. Does anyone else have any more questions for Timothy? He does want to have a
family. Um, and so if you are in that season of life where you are still wanting to give birth
to babies and raise them, uh, then that will be one of the main criteria here. And then of course,
fun and active and love God and all the things that he mentioned, even if you don't do them,
can you appreciate them? Do you appreciate art? Um, do you like to have conversations?
Are you healthy in solving and communicating and solving problems and conflicts? Um,
are you asking how old Timothy is? He's 49 years old. Favorite food. There's an easy one.
What's your favorite. Yeah, I don't know. It's cross. I like, uh, Mexican food. And, um,
I also like Panda express or like good, I don't know, like Japanese, Chinese, Japanese, Thai food.
I like mixing it up, but like going to mod pizza once in a while. Oh yeah. Mod pizza is great.
Which is also just like my pizza, but, and then, you know, you, you go, um, what's the name of
that pizza place with where you are? Um, I don't know. The wood fired pizzas. Oh,
I haven't been there yet. Oh, you got to go there. You'd like it. Oh, okay. All right. It's really
good. Write it down. I wish I could tell you the name of it. Oh, Cinders. It's called Cinders.
Cinders. Yes. Like Cinderella. All right. Some of you say you're visiting Bethel next month. Some
of you say you live there. We do have a big single city there. So you met Timothy here.
If you want us to make an introduction, even if he's in your city, we can do that. If you email
us and put Timothy, but Timothy Redding, okay. Redding, California in the subject line, make
sure that you share with us your bio and your pictures. Once again, we're not going to go
hunting for them. We will just put your requests in the trash. If you do not include that. Okay.
All right. Yes. Mellow mushroom pizza is so good in Ohio too. Jen, that's a really good pizza place.
All right, Timothy. Thanks so much for joining us. I've got to run. Thank you, everyone.
And by the way, y'all, I was on, I was on the radio for years. So I think that's where that
comes from. Okay. All right. Who's next? Let's see. All right. I don't know if he's here yet.
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
that. Um, let me see a couple more guys on my list. Are you guys having fun tonight? Is this fun?
I see Andy's here. So I'm going to go ahead and go to Andy next. Andy is in Allen park, Michigan.
And you guys, I want to let you know, I am very aware that Michigan is a beautiful state.
Okay. I have been there many times and it is objectively a gorgeous place. All right. So
Andy, uh, same as everybody else, give us some of those, those basic facts about yourself and
then one fun fact, and then we'll let everyone else ask you questions. Go ahead. So I'm a 33.
I'm never married. Don't have any kids. Um, and, um, I have a number of very unique hobbies. Um,
well, first of all, I'm, I'm a plumbing engineer for work and I sing Gregorian chant at mass and
I like sci-fi writing and board game designing and, um, YouTube videos about Dante's Inferno.
I make, and also, um, studying alternative medicine. Wow. That's amazing. Okay. You guys,
what Gregorian chant is cool says Becca. Yes, I agree with that. Um, go ahead and Cheryl,
thank you for putting those synopsis up. If you guys are catching those, Cheryl is putting all of
their, their bio facts up there, um, together so you can see it. All right. Love your ways of
interest. Have you ever designed a board game? Yes. That's, that's one of the things I said,
I designed, I said, what's it called? I'm sorry. What's it called?
Oh, what, what are my games called? I've designed many games. Um, the first game I designed was
game called Shooter which was a game involving marbles and marble shooters and the board was
originally made out of a styrofoam container for ice cream cones and I thought it was a good shape
for games so I used it for that. I've designed many playing card games like Jack of Time is a
trick-taking card game involving time travel and there's many others. That's really cool.
I like the sound of that. The marble shooter, that's cool. I used to play. I wasn't really
good at it but we did used to shoot marbles when I was a kid. My siblings and I designed
a board game. Oh, cats or dogs or neither? Well, I don't have any pets. I mean I'm open to cats
though. My parents have a cat and I like cats. For pets, I'm mostly a plant person.
I like taking care of plants. Okay, that's great and it's good that you can keep plants alive. I
have a hard time keeping them alive. Someone wants to know how tall are you? 5'4". Okay, 5'4".
And you have, is that your tree? Is that your Christmas tree back there? It is and I have it
up because it's 2025 because December 25th, 2025, you know? So I'm leaving out the whole year because
it's 2025. Oh, interesting. Okay, raise your hand if you still have your Christmas tree up. I want
to see how many people still have their Christmas tree up. You're in the honor system right now.
Raise your hand if your Christmas tree is still up. Raise your hand. I see all those hands. Look
at all those hands y'all because I saw some of your Christmas trees on some of these sessions
that we've been on since the first. Okay, no shame, no game. I left my Christmas tree up until
May one year. It was a busy year. All right, so Andy has a purpose. He's not just not wanting to
take it down. He's leaving it up prophetically because it is December 25th is Christmas day and
it is the year 2025. All right, that's fun and it makes it really nice and festive in your house.
All right, Andy, thank you so much for joining us. You guys, if you want to know more about Andy or
you want an introduction, please put Andy Michigan in the subject line of your email
and remember to add all of your information so that we can make that introduction.
Thank you so much, Andy. You have so many really interesting interests and I bet you're a really
fun guy to hang out with. All right, okay, let's try to find, he said he's here. Can you go ahead and
raise your hand, Mark, because I can't find you. Raise your little avatar hand so that I can find
you and I can spotlight you, please. Raise your little avatar hand.
I still don't see you.
Mark.
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
on to Kenton. We have another Canadian gentleman with us tonight. Kenton, so good to see you. Go
ahead and answer that basic bio information and we'll let the ladies ask you some questions.
Absolutely. Good evening, all LYS community, especially you ladies. Good to see you all out
tonight. I am Kenton Restolk and it is phonetically correct, absolutely. I am a 65-year-old man with
a 30-year-old body. Sorry to have to tell you that because I'm totally into sports,
totally into athletic events. Something that might be a little bit interesting in my life
was I was the smallest police officer ever hired in Canada. I'm 5'6", if you're interested. Most
were 5'10 or above at that time and since that time they've been hiring much smaller people
because I was able to prove that smaller people can use their mouths much better than they can
fists. So it works even though I'm a self-defense instructor. I'm also a motorcycle, was a motorcycle
cop, so I enjoyed that life. Then I went on to full-time ministry after that and enjoyed doing a
seven-year course for a Bachelor of Religious Education, a pastoral study with counseling,
and I did it all in three years. Now that was fun. Try it sometime. But besides that, I enjoy,
I've got four lovely children. I've got 10 great grandchildren and they are absolutely fantastic.
Grandparents would love getting dirty and messy,
and let's get down and play with the old,
the old, what do they call that?
Little Play-Doh stuff that they have in the bakeries.
They have those little kitchens.
I love doing it with my grandkids.
It's just much fun.
What I love to do is I love to play volleyball,
pickleball, those are two of my go-to sports.
I love skiing in the wintertime,
and I love doing motorcycles in the summertime as well too.
But I'm an athletic person, outdoor person,
and indoor person.
That's why I enjoy all sports.
I have not matched, have met my match yet, ladies.
I'm still looking for that can actually keep up with me.
I am just so active all the time.
It's just like, yeah, you gotta keep,
you gotta keep yourself going
because I'm a squirrel on steroids in so many ways.
All right, ladies, that's a lot.
There's a lot of things there.
I know you wanna ask some questions, so go ahead.
Let's ask Kenton some questions.
He's looking for someone who can keep up with him.
And you know, that's real true
because a lot of people have a retired kind of mentality.
He wants to refire.
He wants to go after everything that's still available.
And I know a lot of you ladies are like that as well.
So he's 65.
He's got kids and grandkids.
He's from Alberta,
self-defense instructor with a pastoral bent.
This is what Cheryl has written about him.
And there's lots of other things
that he shared about himself.
Go ahead.
There's also, I was an advocate for women in ministry
here in Alberta with the POC churches.
So I believe in women being in ministry,
they should have been there in the first place.
And so if you're in ministry
and that's something that you're interested in
having somebody to come alongside of you
and to just be a man that can be just a helpmate to you
or help meet.
I love that, that's awesome.
Love women in ministries, that's awesome.
I am a hunter by the way.
So I do like elk and moose.
Wow.
Yeah.
And I drive the biggest trucks in the world
by the way right now in the biggest sandbox.
There are 410 trucks.
So if you ever need a job,
just let me know, we'll get you up North.
Wow, amazing.
Okay, so what is your favorite book?
Do you like to swim and kayak?
Yes, I swim like a lead balloon, but I can swim.
I do kayak, I do water sports.
I enjoy that as well too.
So yeah, that's all fun.
What was the other question?
I missed out on that.
Your book, your favorite book.
Oh, favorite book.
Well, Jackie just had my most favorite book
was the one you wrote.
You know what?
I like you more and more all the time.
That was an impacted book.
Your illustrations and your life story alone
was just, it brought me to tears.
I have to say that.
Oh, I'm so glad.
I share that with other people I buy it from as well too.
Oh, I love that.
That's so amazing.
Ladies wanna know if you're willing to date Americans,
date long distance and obviously date long distance
in Canada too, because you know, Canada is big.
Yeah, no, Canada is huge.
There's no doubt about it.
I have the ability with my job,
as long as I can be near a large airport
where I can fly back to Canada.
I work seven days in, seven days out.
And so that means I need to be gone every second week.
But that means I get those long extended holidays
when I take seven days off.
So I can go to Israel, Italy.
Those are my next two places I'm ready to go to.
Wonderful.
Italy is amazing.
I haven't been to Israel yet, but that is awesome.
Some ladies here are swooning over you.
That's cute.
Okay.
All right.
Does anyone else have any more?
I know we're running out of time.
We have three more guys to get to,
but if you want to meet Kenton from Canada,
please put that in the subject line.
Kenton, Canada.
All right.
Ken, K-E-N-T-O-N, or is it E-N?
Is it O-N, right?
O-N.
O-N, that's correct.
K-E-N-T-O-N.
One little thing,
if you really want to know what I'm all about,
if anybody's seen that amazing little article
that said the meaning of true love from a man,
if you ever go there,
you'll find out exactly who and how I am.
There you go.
Google that, and then you will know all you need to know
about Kenton from Canada.
And so drop us an email, put him in the subject line,
make sure you include your information,
and we would love to connect you to Kenton.
All right.
I was just in Vegas,
and I did not get to meet this guy in person.
I wish I could have, but I didn't get to.
Actually, I don't see him.
He might've had to go.
David in Vegas.
Are you still here?
He might've had to go.
Dang, y'all.
He just put a chat in chat.
He's in the chat, Jackie, saying that he's here.
Oh, he is?
Okay.
All right.
I'm sorry.
Once again, I can't find anyone.
It should be in alphabetical order here,
because I usually should be able to type it in,
but it's just not working tonight, of course.
So I'm looking, I'm looking, can you raise your hand so I can find you because you are
not in the D's.
I saw you earlier.
Turn on your camera for sure and that will bring you back up.
He raised his hand, Jackie.
Can you see him at the top?
Thank you so much.
All right.
All right, David, how are you?
Good.
How are you?
Good.
It's good to see you.
All right, ladies.
Okay.
We have David here.
He currently lives in Vegas and I'm going to let him go ahead and tell you all that
basic information, include the fun fact, and then we'll let the ladies ask you questions.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm David, born in Phoenix, but raised in Vegas all my life.
I'm adventurous.
I love the outdoors.
I love music.
I play music.
I love anything outdoors.
I love lakes and rivers and anything fun outdoorsy.
Yeah, I'm a good man.
I'm a responsible man and I'm just in the season of life where I feel like things are
changing and I'm ready for the change.
So yeah.
Awesome.
Ladies.
What questions do you have for David?
I am 36 years old, 36, never married, no kids.
Okay.
So, and you want a family, right?
Definitely.
Yep.
Right.
So ladies, that's going to be a non-negotiable.
He wants to have a family.
So if you're in the season of life where you want to also have babies and raise them, then
this is going to be a good match for you.
He is in Vegas.
I love lakes and rivers too.
Willingness to relocate.
And of course, everyone wants to know how tall you are.
Sorry guys.
This is a common question.
Yeah, I'm 5'9".
Willingness to relocate, possibly.
It's not something I really want to do, but I'm open.
Right.
And you're like a prolific musician.
Yeah.
I've been playing music for 25 years.
I play a lot of different instruments and stuff.
I went to the Eagles concert at the Sphere.
Nice.
They are still so good.
I bet.
I know.
They are.
I mean, I'm sure that, you know, they were taking, you know, some breaks and sitting
down, but they are still so good.
Just musically, it was just amazing.
What is your favorite outside activity?
Honestly, I just like being in the peace and quiet.
Just being by a lake or a river or fishing, or I like doing activities too, like skiing
or whatever, but just being out there is just so good for my soul.
And what is, people want to know what's your favorite food?
There's a place in Vegas called Brio, and they have a dish called spicy shrimp and eggplant.
And it is, oh my God, it is just so good.
You have to get it.
And you can dip, the sauce is so good.
You dip your bread in it.
It's just, it's miraculous.
Oh my gosh.
For those of you that know my daughter Reagan, who works for Last Year Single and her new
husband Trevor, does not, David reminds us of Trevor.
You're a lot like my son-in-law, it's very funny.
Are you willing to date long distance?
Again, I'm open to it.
It's definitely not a preference though.
I think it'd be pretty hard.
Yeah.
Can you dance?
Can you cook?
They want to know everything about you.
No.
I mean, I cook a little bit just to survive.
It's not my thing.
I actually don't prefer it because I eat so fast.
So it's like spend 30 minutes cooking and then eat it in three minutes.
It's not worth it to me.
So I try to just cook fast, but no, I'm very, I'm very talented.
I'm very active in a lot of different things, a lot of different hobbies.
I love pickleball too, that's changed my life.
My social life has changed in the last two years so dramatically just because of a little
sport like that.
I love that.
Yeah.
I'm a golfer too.
And so I do a lot of things for sure.
That's awesome.
Okay, ladies, what other questions do you have?
Oh, did you, did you say whether you could dance or not?
Someone's asked that more than once.
Never even tried.
Never even, never tried.
No type of dancing ever.
No.
Just play the music.
You don't dance to it.
Exactly.
Is that right?
Okay.
And I know you play the guitar.
Yeah.
Anything else?
Yeah.
I play, I play drums and keys and bass and sing as well.
So yeah.
Would you like to be married to a woman who's musical?
I'm not saying it's a criteria, but what do you think about it?
Honestly, no, not, not really.
I mean, sure.
If she, if she's.
into that, but no, it's, it's not a priority, um, for someone that's more
of a, a helpmate and a partner wants to, uh, have the freedom to be adventurous
and travel and, and has that ability.
Um, so yeah, that's not a priority.
Um, and are you, are you a professional musician?
Like, does that how you make your living?
So I used to do, so I had my own little home studio for awhile.
I did that for about 10 years or so.
Um, uh, and bands would come over.
I'd track and record and produce their stuff, but I kind of got burnt out with
that because I wasn't doing my music.
And it was, um, it was just becoming more taxing than, than anything.
It was, it was not even my own creativity anymore.
Um, so I, I have not been doing that.
So I trade stocks now for, for income.
Okay.
Awesome.
Uh, our family does that type of stuff as well.
What are the top three qualities that you're looking for in a woman?
Um, that's a good question.
Um, I would say, I would say, uh, a sense of loyalty and kindness, say
probably some sort of entrepreneurial kind of vibe, like wants to make
something of herself, wants to, um, create your own income stream in one way or
another.
Um, and I would say probably, especially for the future, like, uh, someone
who would be a really good mom.
Love it.
You guys, that is David in Vegas.
So put David Vegas in the line, in the subject line, if you know anyone
that David should meet, okay.
Um, he was a referral from someone that I know and trust.
That's how I met David in the first place.
And, um, I do believe that, um, he is everything that he appears to be.
And so he's going to be a great husband and father.
Um, and so if you know anyone that should meet David, if anything's coming to your
mind, to your spirit, if anyone's popping up beside, you know, even if it's not
you, then please message us and we will help make that connection.
David, thanks for joining me.
Thank you.
All right.
And he has been traveling all day and I've been trying to get you.
I have two guys left.
I have Mark and Phillip and they're both amazing.
So please hang out for both of them.
We'll try to get, get here in just the next couple of minutes.
Um, we're going to do Mark first since he's been traveling all day.
Hi, Mark.
Sorry for the delay.
I know you tired.
You're tired.
You've been traveling all day.
Uh, we can't hear you.
Hopefully we're going to get some sound here.
Oh,
you might want to just skip the earbuds and just go straight for it.
Okay.
As Mark's getting that figured out, we'll just go over here to Phillip.
Cause I know y'all we've been on here for a while now.
Um, Phillip.
Oh, wait.
I see Mark.
Okay.
Phillip, where's it going to go?
I'm trying to figure it out with Mark.
Mark, we're going to, we're going to figure it out.
This is Phillip.
Hi, Phillip.
Thanks for hanging in with us.
Go ahead and give us that basic information about yourself, including
the fun fact, and then we'll let the ladies ask some questions.
So my name is Phillip.
I am 38 years old.
I'm currently living in Athens, Georgia, and, um, I am never been to
the U.S. before, but I've been to the U.S.
I'm currently living in Athens, Georgia, and, um, I am never been married.
Don't have any kids.
I am moving to Athens, Greece, uh, in April.
So the fun fact about me is I'm a missionary.
I've lived in, um, three different countries.
I've lived in Israel, Jordan, and Turkey, learned Arabic, and I'm
a missionary to Arab Muslims.
So that's the fun fact about me.
Wow.
That's amazing.
I just realized that I know someone that went to my home church that also she's in
Iraq, but she is a missionary to, to, uh, to, uh, Muslims as well.
And so that might be a connection for you.
All right.
So you guys, what do you want to ask him besides, wow, that, that, that's a
very interesting conversation.
Calling and ministry. And some people probably feel a little scared when you hear that.
But I will say this, I will say that I believe that God is moving all of his people around
to places because there is this beautiful kingdom age that is dawning. And so it's very
exciting. All right. So if you have a missionary heart, this is probably going to be someone
that you want to connect with because it doesn't really matter what people group is about having
a missionary heart. Okay. So what questions do you have? Did you get snow yesterday in
Georgia? They want to know. We did. It was just a little bit, but yeah, we got enough
to, uh, that I had an appointment that canceled because the doctor's office was, you know,
shut down for the day. So we had enough to, enough to cancel in Georgia, not enough to
do anything in Ohio. Ohioans are hardcore. They don't, they don't, that's a little, that's
nothing to them. What about Greece? How long are you going to be in Greece? People want
to know. Um, so I'm planning to go there longterm. I don't have any, um, end date. I'm going
to be a part of a ministry that ministers to refugees coming in from the middle East.
So I'll be there, um, until God says different. So, okay. And when are you planning on leaving
in April? Okay. So in April, he's planning on leaving and he does not have a return ticket.
Y'all he's going and staying, um, for right now. Okay. I know I'll be back a couple of
times, um, to the States in 2025 for sure in the summer. But, um, other than that, you
know, I don't have it several times, but at least with an organization or are you an independent
missionary? I I'm going with my denomination. So church of God, um, it's, it's like assemblies
of God. And so, um, I'll be going there. I have a community that, you know, will be around
me when I get there. So I'm not going on my own. Um, there's already a community center
that's doing ministry and I'll be joining them. Okay. That's awesome. Um, where's your
family from? My family's from Georgia. So, um, when I'm back in the States, Georgia is
kind of my home base of operations. All right. And how old are you? I am 38. So what do you
do in ministry? Like, you know, are you a preacher? Are you a teacher? Are you, you
know, like what, what do you do? Yeah. So, I mean, primarily I'm a minister, so I primarily,
um, it's teaching. So I do a lot of the, there's a lot of people getting saved in Greece, thank
God. And so I'll be doing a lot of the discipleship and teaching them in Arabic. Um, but that's,
that's my primary gifting. I have also, um, been a worship leader at different points.
So I enjoy music. I'm not as gifted as some of the other guys that were on here, but I
can carry a tune. So I love that. No. So you speak Arabic? I do. I studied it in Jordan.
So wow. That's some, that's really impressive. I'm super impressed by that. A lot of people
are admiring your heart. You guys. Um, I, I, I got a word. I don't know if any of you
are, you know, have been in this community long enough to remember. I know Bethany will,
that God gave me a word that he was partnering his missionaries so that he was getting, you
know, he was bringing in, uh, you know, spouses and partners for his missionaries that a lot
of them had sacrificed, you know, their years of their lives, those decades when other people
were getting married and building careers and families, they were doing the full-time
work of the ministry and of the Lord. And so they missed out on some of that stuff,
so to speak. And God said that, you know, as he is bringing this revival of marriage
and family, that his missionaries and his ministers would basically go first. And so
I just released that over you, Philip and anyone else that that pertains to. So if you
want, does anyone else have any other questions? Cause I know we're getting late here for Philip,
but, um, if you, if you want to know, if you want to know more about Philip, if you want
to connect with him and then put Philip and put Georgia in the subject line of the email
and give us your information, we would love to connect you. And if you know anyone, like
there's already a couple of girls that are coming to my mind. Um, cause I didn't even
know some of this stuff about Philip before tonight that I think that would be quality
introductions for him. So if you know anyone, someone's like, do you sense a future call
to Canada? Um, there's Muslims there too. That's true. You guys, he's just doing what
the Lord has told him to do. He has no idea what's next. And I appreciate that. Raise
your hand. If you feel like you're the kind of person that if God said, go, you would
go, even if you didn't know how or why or for how long, let's see the hands of Melissa
joy. I know that's definitely true for you. Okay. So look at all of those people raising
their hands. They're like, yes, yes. Lord choose me, send me, pick me. I would do it.
So that's a lot of ladies.
Raising their hand there and gentlemen. Okay. So.
That's awesome. And it's awesome to know.
And I'm sure that that is encouraging for Philip. All right.
So there's a lot of people that are like, yep, I would do it. Okay.
So you don't have to be called to the Muslim people and you don't have
to necessarily be called to Greece. You have to be like, Hey,
I like that Philip guy and I'd like to get to know him better because
I'm willing to do whatever God shows me to do.
Guess what? He's not moving till April.
That's plenty of time to fall in love.
And so reach out to us if you want to get an introduction to Philip.
All right. Thanks Philip. Appreciate it.
Thank you.
All right.
These spotlights are so much better than the other kind because people
can actually hear you and see you and it is great.
I love it. All right, you guys, let's see if Mark is ready.
See if we figured out what was going on with his stuff.
I'm looking for you, Mark.
How can you hear me?
Yes, we can hear you.
There you are.
Or a step ahead of the game now.
Yeah, you are. Okay.
I may not be able to spotlight you,
but you're the only one talking and everyone can see you there.
So I'm trying to find your spotlight.
But in the meantime, hold on, let me see.
I'm going, I'm going, I'm scrolling up to the top.
Okay.
There we are.
Finally.
Okay.
Yes.
All right. So give us that basic info about you and then we'll let the
ladies ask some questions.
I do know that this man is another active man. You play baseball,
right?
That's correct.
I'm Mark. I'm 67.
I'm from Norman, Oklahoma.
And I'm married.
And I have a daughter.
So we left the house early this morning and headed to the airport. Now.
I landed in Dallas where I'm at my daughter's house.
That's her family.
And.
Something interesting.
Fun fact about me is that I can pass a polygraph.
Faster than most people.
I've had to do that several times in the course of my work.
Wow. Okay.
That's awesome.
And then ladies, you can ask any questions that you want to.
I believe he said he was 67 years old.
He's where, where do you live? You're visiting your daughter in Dallas,
but where do you live?
I live in Norman, Oklahoma.
Norman, Oklahoma.
Where are your kids missionaries in Mexico? Someone wants to know.
They are in a little town called.
It's in.
It's about two and a half hours Northwestern Mexico city up in the
mountains.
It was 50 something degrees in their house all week.
So I've been wearing sweats all that all week.
Oh, wow.
And you're a really active guy. You like to play like, you know,
like competitive baseball still.
Yes. I, I played.
Competitively at Baylor.
Back in the day.
And I was playing a lot of pickleball.
And I was a young lady who.
Dad had started a 60 and over a baseball league here in Oklahoma city.
And so I joined that.
A lot of those guys play in a softball league.
So I wound up playing softball as well.
And we did some traveling. We went to.
I quote world series and Phoenix, Arizona.
Play baseball.
And then we went to Vegas for two weeks to play softball.
Was out there for Vegas for two weeks in Phoenix for another week.
And we did some traveling during the, during the summer.
Softball tournaments.
That's awesome.
I know I saw some pictures of you playing baseball and I was like,
wow, I was like that, that man is, is fit.
All right. So ladies.
What else do you guys want to know about Mark?
Now that we finally got him up.
Yeah.
We got kids that he raised the right way, obviously,
because they're missionaries and.
And he.
It has taken his time to come here tonight.
And be with us.
And so that's great.
So are you retired? So people want to know, what do you,
what do you do for a living? Are you retired? What are you up to?
I am permanently unemployable.
So I've been self-employed for the last.
20 Years.
But I do it work. I set up computers. I do software.
Installations. I do networking, that type of thing.
And I've been in a nutritional business for the last 20 years as well.
So, so you're an entrepreneur and you own your own business.
Yeah.
All right. That's wonderful. That's that.
That's I like that answer.
All right. And so are you widowed or are you divorced?
That's the right kind of answer there.
I'm widowed. I was married for 35 years. Uh,
he had breast cancer, died eight years ago.
Wow. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't know.
My mom, my mom died of breast cancer five years ago.
And so I know that pain and it's very painful.
So I love it that you were married for 35 years.
That means that, you know, you know what it's like to be married.
You know, it's not easy, but it's so worth it.
Will you date long distance is the next question that people have for you.
I'm willing to do that. Yes.
Okay. And are you, um, sorry, these questions keep going up.
What's your ideal, what's your idea of an ideal vacation?
Ooh, there's so many different things. Anything that, uh, involves nature. I've been to
some, you know, of the large cities, my, my entire family took a trip one time to
Africa and then spent a couple of weeks in Europe on a URL pass. And I found that the
cities are just cities, but, uh, God's beauty is everywhere out in the countryside. So I love to
ski or be out in nature, uh, sunset sunrises. I've got two or three pictures this week of
sunrise and all my alcohol. Uh, the, the skies were just gorgeous. We were up above the clouds,
uh, one morning. So we were looking down on the fog.
Oh, that sounds really pretty. Are you willing to relocate?
I could do that. And with the right person, the right circumstances.
All right. Look, y'all, he's super flexible. I know that all of you ladies are like
wanting to ask questions and, you know, go ahead. We just, you know, we're already over time anyway.
So go ahead and get it in there. Um, how tall are you?
Five, nine guys. I'm a firm believer that all men in America are five, nine. Okay. So get over
yourselves. They're five, nine. My husband is five, nine. Everybody's five, nine. That's how
tall men are. And then of course we have all these six footers that just kind of came out of nowhere
tonight, but normally, you know, that's the case. Um, I don't think that Gina, I don't think that
Mark has an age range. I think his range is whoever's in the same season of life as he is.
So he is, you know, he has been married. He's married for 35 years. He has adult children
that are serving the Lord. He's got grandchildren, you know, he's traveling, he's an entrepreneur.
So are you, if you're in the same season of life, we'll go ahead and ask you Mark,
just because sometimes may December romances happen. How would you feel about a woman who
is raising, you know, older children? She's got children that are still in the home.
How do you feel about that? I, that doesn't bother me at all. Uh, I'm really good with,
with kids, uh, especially the young ones, but, uh, my wife and I worked in the church nursery
for years and, uh, just love being around the little kids like that. Uh, the older kids,
I'm a CASA, a court appointed special advocate. Uh, and I joined, I volunteered for that because
I feel like I have a lot of, uh, good background that I can share with children
and help them to have a better life. That's great. That's wonderful. I love that. And do
you have a church community there where you live? Uh, I'm kind of been searching for a while. Uh,
the church that I was in, uh, both my kids met their spouses there. Um, my wife and I served a
lot there. I served after her death, but, uh, one day I was having a conversation with a man and,
uh, God just told me to move on. And yet I still haven't been able to find what a,
a good place to plug in. So I'm, I'm still bouncing around some and, but I, I do attend
regularly, just trying to find the place that really, and I can contribute to. Yeah,
I agree with you. Oh, David and I are in kind of in the same kind of season as you with that.
So, all right, ladies, if you have any other questions for Mark, you want to have a
conversation with him. You want to be introduced to him. Um, you are looking for the same things
that he's looking for the Mark from Oklahoma. Okay. Mark. Okay. Put that in a, the subject
line of your email. Don't forget to tell us who you are and give us some pictures of you.
So we can put a name with the face and we would be happy to make that introduction. If you can
think of any other ladies, you guys, we, there's a lot of people that are not here tonight in our
community. They're going to probably watch this and replay. That's wonderful. But if you can think
of someone that you're like, wow, that guy needs to meet my sister in the community. So-and-so
even if they're in phase two and they're not in phase three yet, make sure that you tell them
about this. And-
You email in for them so that we can make that introduction, Mark.
Thank you so much with all the technical difficulties and all the travel.
Appreciate you coming on here.
Right.
You're a great guy and we're happy to have you here tonight.
So everyone, we had so much fun tonight.
Yes.
Thank you.
We had so much fun tonight.
I hope you guys had fun.
We're going to do more and more and more of this.
I believe that there's going to be some matches made from tonight,
probably more than just a few.
And remember, if they're not for you, they're for someone that you know,
someone knows someone who knows someone who knows your spirit mate.
That is our motto here at last year single.
And so play matchmaker community-based matchmaking, you play matchmaker
and let's make some introductions.
All right.
I love you guys.
Have a great night.
See you soon.
