1
00:00:02.060 --> 00:00:05.640
Okay, man, I'm so excited to be with you for our check-in.

2
00:00:06.820 --> 00:00:13.760
I have A, I'm always here to talk dating advice with you, but I actually pulled up my copy

3
00:00:13.760 --> 00:00:18.180
of the heart work from when I did it back in 2021.

4
00:00:19.340 --> 00:00:26.260
Bethany is going to start to give me notes that she gave to David of like things to kind

5
00:00:26.260 --> 00:00:28.900
of go over because I don't see that guy that was here.

6
00:00:29.740 --> 00:00:33.360
Who was the guy that was here a couple the last time?

7
00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:34.120
Tim.

8
00:00:35.380 --> 00:00:35.860
Tim.

9
00:00:36.080 --> 00:00:37.020
Yeah, but he's not here tonight.

10
00:00:37.420 --> 00:00:37.760
Okay.

11
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:42.280
Well, I was thinking of Tim going, well, you know, we're going to always have new people.

12
00:00:42.480 --> 00:00:45.520
And so there's always topics I'd love for us to revisit.

13
00:00:46.740 --> 00:00:49.840
Um, oh my gosh, you guys, you're also good looking.

14
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:54.160
I mean, y'all, like, are we sure you're I'm okay.

15
00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:57.120
So I'm like talking sideways.

16
00:00:57.500 --> 00:00:59.100
Let's talk dating first.

17
00:00:59.120 --> 00:01:03.140
And then I have a couple topics we can talk about tonight, but I'm really excited to see

18
00:01:03.140 --> 00:01:03.840
all of you tonight.

19
00:01:03.900 --> 00:01:04.140
Okay.

20
00:01:04.140 --> 00:01:04.900
So David, right.

21
00:01:04.940 --> 00:01:06.700
You had three zoom dates.

22
00:01:06.820 --> 00:01:08.080
Did any of them go anywhere?

23
00:01:08.620 --> 00:01:09.100
Yeah.

24
00:01:09.100 --> 00:01:13.060
So I, I kind of need the council of, of the, of the table here.

25
00:01:14.220 --> 00:01:16.840
So, uh, yeah, I, uh, one person.

26
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:22.280
So I've been talking with somebody for five weeks now and, uh, after my first spotlight,

27
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.480
they found me and, uh, she just said, she said, Hey, I got sent it.

28
00:01:26.500 --> 00:01:29.160
She wasn't there, but she said, I got sent it by six different people.

29
00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:33.580
And even one of the coaches was like, Hey, you need to give this guy a shot.

30
00:01:33.660 --> 00:01:34.520
You're in his age range.

31
00:01:35.540 --> 00:01:44.180
Um, and so we have now gone on, uh, we've gone on two dates and, uh, yeah, it's pretty

32
00:01:44.180 --> 00:01:44.620
awesome.

33
00:01:44.660 --> 00:01:45.680
Do you mean video dates?

34
00:01:45.820 --> 00:01:46.680
Are you guys local?

35
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:47.160
No.

36
00:01:47.160 --> 00:01:47.600
In real life.

37
00:01:47.720 --> 00:01:48.980
So we've video dates.

38
00:01:48.980 --> 00:01:49.480
Yeah.

39
00:01:49.580 --> 00:01:54.400
So video dates probably about like 20 at this point, but real life dates too.

40
00:01:55.020 --> 00:01:55.140
Shut up.

41
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:55.960
Okay.

42
00:01:55.960 --> 00:01:57.480
Wait, you're in Canada, right?

43
00:01:57.980 --> 00:01:58.400
Yeah.

44
00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:00.020
Where is, who is it?

45
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:00.700
Do we get to know?

46
00:02:01.100 --> 00:02:01.600
Yeah.

47
00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:03.280
You can know Evelyn in Ottawa.

48
00:02:04.340 --> 00:02:06.180
I am so excited.

49
00:02:06.740 --> 00:02:07.620
I don't know Evelyn.

50
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:07.640


51
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:14.380
And so, uh, we, uh, we, uh, got inspired by your and Brian's talk and because you were

52
00:02:14.380 --> 00:02:16.700
all talking about community dating, right?

53
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:23.040
So we kind of made a plan and I said, Hey, uh, would it be okay if I went to your church

54
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:23.620
on Sunday?

55
00:02:23.740 --> 00:02:29.020
So I woke up at six 40 in the morning and I drove for two and a half hours to her church

56
00:02:29.200 --> 00:02:31.300
and I wasn't praying or doing any of that.

57
00:02:31.460 --> 00:02:34.540
And so we were, cause we're trying to like, you know, separate church and state.

58
00:02:34.820 --> 00:02:38.900
But I said, Hey, even if I just get to meet some of your people at the end of church,

59
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:40.200
that's enough for me.

60
00:02:40.200 --> 00:02:43.740
And so she said, well, my people don't show up until the 9am service, not the 1130.

61
00:02:43.740 --> 00:02:45.480
And I said, well, let's go to the 9am.

62
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:50.040
And so we met her friends and her friends were smart and good friends.

63
00:02:50.040 --> 00:02:52.380
And they said, you came here just to meet us for five minutes.

64
00:02:52.440 --> 00:02:53.900
And I said, absolutely.

65
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.640
And they said, I looked at her and said, this is a good man.

66
00:02:56.980 --> 00:02:57.420
We approve.

67
00:02:59.100 --> 00:03:01.340
And, uh, yeah, so that went really well.

68
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:04.040
So what's your question for the men?

69
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:04.980
Sorry.

70
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:05.740
So, sorry.

71
00:03:05.880 --> 00:03:06.480
Getting to the point.

72
00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:13.960
So the question is, is that, um, we, I went dancing and before dancing, I wanted to establish

73
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:17.160
and I said, Hey, I'm okay if we hold hands because I've grew up dancing.

74
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.380
I know in dancing, you hold hands.

75
00:03:19.740 --> 00:03:20.100
Right.

76
00:03:20.100 --> 00:03:23.280
And I said, Hey, I know we're both trying to follow the rules and be really careful

77
00:03:23.300 --> 00:03:23.660
here.

78
00:03:23.860 --> 00:03:26.860
But I said like, at this point, I am okay if we hold hands.

79
00:03:27.320 --> 00:03:31.180
And so she said, she said, I'm okay with it too, but you just review that with the council.

80
00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:35.780
And she said, if this is something that we have to peel back a bit, and if your council

81
00:03:35.780 --> 00:03:39.520
says, Hey, that's, that's too early or too soon, she says, I'm okay with that.

82
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:45.760
Um, and so, yeah, we went dancing and had a great time and, uh, yeah.

83
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:46.440
Okay.

84
00:03:46.440 --> 00:03:48.040
But it's been five weeks, right?

85
00:03:48.040 --> 00:03:51.080
You said five weeks, five weeks of, of talking.

86
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:54.320
I actually, cause I asked the Holy spirit and I said, Lord, is this from you?

87
00:03:54.320 --> 00:03:57.120
And he said, no count from when your first message was.

88
00:03:57.140 --> 00:03:58.720
And so the first message was five weeks ago.

89
00:03:59.020 --> 00:03:59.460
Okay.

90
00:03:59.600 --> 00:04:00.040
Perfect.

91
00:04:01.160 --> 00:04:09.540
Um, so I mean, dancing is kind of different than like, what kind of dancing y'all doing?

92
00:04:10.040 --> 00:04:14.000
Like West coast, uh, tango.

93
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:19.579
So I guess like, I don't know, maybe I made a mistake, but like, it's free in the park.

94
00:04:19.740 --> 00:04:22.060
So in, in Canada, we like, we like to dance.

95
00:04:22.260 --> 00:04:26.060
So like in our, in our city parks, we often have like free tango classes.

96
00:04:26.060 --> 00:04:29.920
So we did like a, it's like a little lesson for an hour and then a free dance for an hour.

97
00:04:30.660 --> 00:04:32.160
So that was great.

98
00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:33.900
No, I mean, tango is great.

99
00:04:34.620 --> 00:04:44.380
It's just, let's just say there's a little more heat packed into a tank than like a waltz,

100
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:45.040
right?

101
00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:47.020
There, Jesus was in the middle.

102
00:04:47.220 --> 00:04:51.840
We left room for Jesus with us.

103
00:04:51.900 --> 00:04:53.200
We were dancing like this.

104
00:04:53.200 --> 00:04:56.840
It was like middle school, like Jesus was present.

105
00:04:57.680 --> 00:04:59.980
How often are you guys chatting with each other?

106
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:08.300
Every day every day. Yeah. Okay. So do you think you guys are talking to other people right now? I

107
00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:10.120
Kind of stopped

108
00:05:11.260 --> 00:05:16.060
Talking to other people just because I thought yeah, I was like I kind of liked the direction this was going

109
00:05:16.060 --> 00:05:22.480
And so I also like due to your encouragement. I went back on online dating and just got swamped and

110
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:28.240
And and I was like I got 300 inquiries and I was like this is too many

111
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:33.160
And I took all Jackie's advices like I hired a photographer and we got professional pictures and

112
00:05:35.620 --> 00:05:37.500
Yeah, I was like I said

113
00:05:37.500 --> 00:05:39.920
I'm just gonna talk to people with the zoom and then I was like

114
00:05:39.980 --> 00:05:44.060
Really? Like I just kind of want to talk to her but I don't want to like skip

115
00:05:44.620 --> 00:05:46.400
Where is she at?

116
00:05:48.440 --> 00:05:53.780
Like like yeah, no, she wants to be exclusive I think so here's so um

117
00:05:53.780 --> 00:05:58.440
Jackie calls it like three level three. I call it 3a and 3b

118
00:05:59.220 --> 00:06:07.200
You know cuz I'm the one that has to live it out. So I think it is. Okay, you guys have been talking long enough. I

119
00:06:07.200 --> 00:06:11.300
Think it's okay to say hey Evelyn, you know, I'm really enjoying

120
00:06:12.320 --> 00:06:15.260
Getting to know you I'm not sure where you're at

121
00:06:15.260 --> 00:06:17.140
But I'm really comfortable

122
00:06:17.140 --> 00:06:22.220
Pausing talking to other people and us just figuring out where we

123
00:06:22.340 --> 00:06:24.100
each other is going

124
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:26.960
That's different than what I call 3b

125
00:06:27.320 --> 00:06:32.380
Which is like she's my girlfriend. We're showing up hand in hand

126
00:06:32.380 --> 00:06:36.560
She's my plus one at all of the dates and just say like look, you know

127
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:41.900
We're still getting to know each other but like the hand-holding stuff is the stuff that you would do

128
00:06:42.820 --> 00:06:48.820
At phase three, you know, and so when it's just one person so if you want to be right

129
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:53.200
Did you skip a step no

130
00:06:54.480 --> 00:07:01.220
No, I mean all of the video calls okay, that was level two and

131
00:07:01.220 --> 00:07:03.040
You've had a couple in person days

132
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:08.840
I mean you obviously may want to I mean Jackie always says like when someone's long-distance she wants you to

133
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:16.380
You know, she wants you to at least get like four, you know dates or you know for

134
00:07:16.420 --> 00:07:22.660
Within four video dates to get in a live visit. And so you guys how far away do y'all live from each other?

135
00:07:26.400 --> 00:07:32.020
Did I lose him or like she lives in Ottawa so that's like where she lives

136
00:07:32.460 --> 00:07:32.860
I'm

137
00:07:36.280 --> 00:07:36.680
We're

138
00:07:37.340 --> 00:07:41.040
Where she lives it's about like two and a half hours three hours

139
00:07:41.400 --> 00:07:46.380
So, oh, so she's got a little bit of distance for me to get to Ottawa's two hours, but she lives in the other end

140
00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:50.600
Yeah, okay. So you guys are doing yeah, and so that's why I was like we were like like

141
00:07:52.540 --> 00:07:58.380
Yeah, which is why which is why it took kind of so long to meet just because yeah, there's distance there right so

142
00:07:58.380 --> 00:08:01.940
Are you is your intention to get to her every week now?

143
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:09.240
Yeah, I think we both kind of made that commitment of being like hey like

144
00:08:09.820 --> 00:08:12.800
You know, we'll make the plan to try to like see each other

145
00:08:13.540 --> 00:08:14.840
every weekend and

146
00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:18.380
Yeah, we're gonna take turns. I

147
00:08:18.380 --> 00:08:23.280
Think it's okay for you to tell her you don't want you to you want to put all your focus on her right now

148
00:08:23.280 --> 00:08:28.360
I think that's different than saying will you be my girlfriend? I'm committed to like potentially getting married to you

149
00:08:28.380 --> 00:08:29.460
Do you know what I'm saying?

150
00:08:30.220 --> 00:08:36.360
I think it's especially when it's long-distance bright Brian was ready to say that after the first week and I was just like now

151
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:43.480
But um, I

152
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:50.060
Think that five weeks in and with a couple dates under your belt with that kind of distance and you guys committing to seeing each

153
00:08:50.060 --> 00:08:56.060
Other every weekend. I think it's okay to say like hey, I've paused that other stuff

154
00:08:56.060 --> 00:09:03.240
You know, I can't make you pause either but she'll probably it sounds like she'll probably say oh my gosh

155
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:08.200
I want to pause too. And then that's all you have to define what that means right now

156
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.820
You don't have to define anything else on what that means

157
00:09:10.820 --> 00:09:18.160
But it does give you a little latitude on the hand-holding thing to knowing that you're not out there on other dates with other people

158
00:09:19.280 --> 00:09:20.900
yeah, yeah, and

159
00:09:21.660 --> 00:09:24.640
I mean I prayed about it too and I was like praying but for me

160
00:09:24.640 --> 00:09:30.740
It was important that I established that before we went dancing because dancing you're basically holding hands the entire time anyways

161
00:09:31.780 --> 00:09:36.700
and so for me like yeah, I just wanted to make sure that like

162
00:09:36.920 --> 00:09:42.420
That she knows that that we're not just doing this like oh, it's kind of way to skirt around the levels because we're dance

163
00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:47.000
Yeah, I like that. We had the conversation for

164
00:09:47.760 --> 00:09:53.480
Yeah, and that's that verbal consent and I said like hey, we're about to go dancing and then dancing you're basically

165
00:09:54.020 --> 00:09:56.080
She's never taken a dance lesson and I grew up dancing

166
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.640
My parents said there's nothing more mammal than a man who knows how to dance

167
00:09:59.400 --> 00:09:59.980
so my

168
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.920
Me and my five brothers all knew how to dance and like shoot guns and cut wood.

169
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:06.460
And that was part of being a man was you knew how to dance.

170
00:10:07.140 --> 00:10:10.600
Um, and so very quickly, I don't want to take all the time, but I, so like two

171
00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:13.760
things kind of happened, which is follow-up is one, is it like, cause I

172
00:10:13.760 --> 00:10:17.480
know last year single is like, okay, like don't pray, don't kind of do ministry

173
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:19.200
together, just get to know each other.

174
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:24.400
So was going to church with her too much because we, her and I kind of went

175
00:10:24.400 --> 00:10:27.220
through it and she kind of didn't want the after, like didn't want me to meet

176
00:10:27.220 --> 00:10:32.340
her friends at her lunch, but for me, I kind of saw it as, look, we're in

177
00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:39.840
community anyways, and we are article going on thing, you know, on, on Sundays

178
00:10:39.920 --> 00:10:40.940
and Saturdays.

179
00:10:40.940 --> 00:10:43.840
So to me, it's not really any different than what we've already been doing.

180
00:10:44.060 --> 00:10:46.100
We're just sitting in church together.

181
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.620
And so I, that was kind of my reasoning, but.

182
00:10:48.860 --> 00:10:52.780
I mean, I think it's okay because you've spent so much time

183
00:10:52.780 --> 00:10:54.680
building a foundation with her.

184
00:10:54.680 --> 00:10:59.560
So when we ask folks to not do church together and pray together, it's

185
00:10:59.560 --> 00:11:04.340
especially in those first few weeks when you're just like getting to know somebody.

186
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:07.600
So it kind of sounds like you're already past that.

187
00:11:07.780 --> 00:11:09.700
So I think you're fine, David.

188
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:14.020
I mean, I think that you're doing a broad enough amount of stuff with

189
00:11:14.020 --> 00:11:15.200
her that I think you're fine.

190
00:11:16.880 --> 00:11:17.440
Okay.

191
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:21.200
And then the other question was, is that I, I woke up this

192
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:22.940
morning and I felt so much guilt.

193
00:11:22.940 --> 00:11:25.200
I felt like the kind of guilt is like, you know, when you do, when

194
00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:26.960
you go too far with a girl, right?

195
00:11:26.980 --> 00:11:30.060
Like I'm still a virgin, but like, you know, that you feel that feeling,

196
00:11:30.060 --> 00:11:33.060
everybody in this call knows it, that feeling of like, Oh, sorry.

197
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:34.160
Oh, shoot.

198
00:11:34.820 --> 00:11:36.180
I've just gone too far.

199
00:11:36.420 --> 00:11:38.740
And now I, you know, like everybody's felt that feeling.

200
00:11:38.900 --> 00:11:41.840
And so, but I was like, but Lord, like I didn't overshare.

201
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:43.120
We weren't physical.

202
00:11:44.060 --> 00:11:48.060
There wasn't like, it was really like, we were really like careful with our

203
00:11:48.060 --> 00:11:51.840
distance and really trying to respect each other and, and, and I was like, but

204
00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:53.680
then why am I still feeling that feeling?

205
00:11:53.860 --> 00:11:54.960
And I, and I just rebuked the enemy.

206
00:11:55.020 --> 00:11:56.080
I was like, get behind me, Satan.

207
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:57.840
That was, that was my response.

208
00:11:57.940 --> 00:12:01.280
I was just like, Hey, this is from the enemy because he doesn't like

209
00:12:01.280 --> 00:12:02.560
that I'm trying to do a new thing.

210
00:12:02.760 --> 00:12:03.120
Yeah.

211
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:04.660
That I'm trying to walk in victory.

212
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:05.560
Yeah.

213
00:12:05.560 --> 00:12:07.800
Well, I'll let the other guys weigh in.

214
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:12.320
How do you know when it's the Holy spirit convicting you versus

215
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:14.120
you just getting in your own head?

216
00:12:14.400 --> 00:12:16.300
Mike, did you want to give some thoughts on that?

217
00:12:16.340 --> 00:12:17.580
Is that why your hands raised?

218
00:12:20.760 --> 00:12:21.900
Go for it, bub.

219
00:12:22.060 --> 00:12:23.860
I'm sure I'm having a hard time unmuting.

220
00:12:25.400 --> 00:12:27.080
So I just want to give you props, David.

221
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.800
Like it's just, I mean, to me, you're already in a three, you

222
00:12:30.800 --> 00:12:32.080
just haven't made it official.

223
00:12:32.160 --> 00:12:34.820
I mean, like the fact that you're doing these things, I'm like, you've

224
00:12:34.820 --> 00:12:38.620
already crossed that threshold, whether you know, realize it or not.

225
00:12:39.060 --> 00:12:42.020
But like, and tango, like, I'm like, if you're tangoing, holding

226
00:12:42.020 --> 00:12:44.980
hands, this is a secondary thing, bro.

227
00:12:45.140 --> 00:12:47.560
Like, but you know, like the holding hands, they're, they're, they're

228
00:12:47.560 --> 00:12:51.000
holding hand is like way up the list and tango is like down the list.

229
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:56.560
So, but, but you know what, here's the thing.

230
00:12:56.160 --> 00:13:02.760
Um, so it's the spirit, like your, uh, condemnation, right.

231
00:13:03.140 --> 00:13:06.300
The, the, the Holy spirit would be like, Hey, you know what?

232
00:13:06.860 --> 00:13:08.500
You should probably watch out for that.

233
00:13:09.020 --> 00:13:09.420
Right.

234
00:13:09.420 --> 00:13:13.560
Like, you know, uh, versus like you blew it.

235
00:13:13.740 --> 00:13:14.000
Right.

236
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:15.240
That's the spirit of condemnation.

237
00:13:15.300 --> 00:13:16.580
And that's completely from the enemy.

238
00:13:16.580 --> 00:13:19.920
That's the, you know, that's him coming at you because the Holy spirit's

239
00:13:20.540 --> 00:13:21.120
constructive, right?

240
00:13:21.140 --> 00:13:24.480
It's like, Hey, if you get, if you continue down this road, be careful

241
00:13:24.520 --> 00:13:29.480
because X will happen or whatever, or like, or, you know, like, um, so I

242
00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:30.900
just, but I just want to give you props.

243
00:13:30.900 --> 00:13:32.420
And it's just, it's a beautiful thing.

244
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.460
And I love your obedience.

245
00:13:34.760 --> 00:13:35.160
Right.

246
00:13:35.160 --> 00:13:38.380
I, you know, and like, I mean, and, and the honor, like, you know, I mean,

247
00:13:38.380 --> 00:13:42.700
you're, you're, you're a mighty man of honor and like, that's such a

248
00:13:42.700 --> 00:13:44.240
beautiful thing to see this nowadays.

249
00:13:44.780 --> 00:13:49.580
And, um, I just, I just want to commend you, you know, I mean, not many, I

250
00:13:49.580 --> 00:13:54.680
don't know, maybe a couple of guys on a hand that would have done what you've

251
00:13:54.680 --> 00:13:54.700
done.

252
00:13:54.800 --> 00:13:56.940
So I just give you, give you props.

253
00:13:57.920 --> 00:13:58.820
That means a lot.

254
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:00.840
Yeah.

255
00:14:01.220 --> 00:14:05.460
And to Mike's point, I just wouldn't have the Tango be something you do

256
00:14:05.520 --> 00:14:07.280
every single night and every weekend.

257
00:14:07.820 --> 00:14:08.720
Like, Oh no.

258
00:14:09.160 --> 00:14:09.640
Yeah.

259
00:14:09.640 --> 00:14:11.740
It's just, it was one of the things.

260
00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:12.920
Yeah.

261
00:14:13.380 --> 00:14:18.620
And I, I think too, is that it was the last session for the year.

262
00:14:19.560 --> 00:14:25.020
And so, and I think like, and it was my idea, but she had said, like, she

263
00:14:25.020 --> 00:14:27.880
was like, you know, I've always prayed that someone would come and do the

264
00:14:27.880 --> 00:14:28.340
Tango with me.

265
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.140
She's like, you know, I always walk, I've been walking by this for 10

266
00:14:31.140 --> 00:14:32.540
years and always wanted to do it.

267
00:14:33.220 --> 00:14:38.420
And I, I like, she didn't bring it up at all and never mentioned it, but I

268
00:14:38.420 --> 00:14:41.580
was just like, Hey, like there's, I know that there's a Tango in the

269
00:14:42.540 --> 00:14:43.640
dance and Dave.

270
00:14:44.680 --> 00:14:46.300
Yeah, that's probably wise.

271
00:14:46.800 --> 00:14:47.660
There's some wisdom there.

272
00:14:48.060 --> 00:14:49.000
Um, but you know what?

273
00:14:49.060 --> 00:14:49.980
It was the last of the season.

274
00:14:50.040 --> 00:14:52.620
And she just said, she's like, I, I've been prayed that someone will be

275
00:14:52.620 --> 00:14:55.960
willing to go and dance with me in the square, so we'll just give it some

276
00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:59.560
grace and you know, like I'm not looking, I'm looking her up, man.

277
00:14:59.560 --> 00:14:59.980
Cause I'm.

278
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:00.980
Just nosy.

279
00:15:01.820 --> 00:15:02.080
Let's see.

280
00:15:02.460 --> 00:15:04.100
Can I send a picture in the chat?

281
00:15:04.300 --> 00:15:05.020
Is that doable?

282
00:15:05.020 --> 00:15:06.200
Yeah, man, that's even better.

283
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:09.020
How do I do that, Mike?

284
00:15:10.540 --> 00:15:11.860
Is there a way to do that?

285
00:15:13.820 --> 00:15:15.520
I'm not sure if you can do pictures.

286
00:15:15.880 --> 00:15:17.780
I know you can do links, but not pictures.

287
00:15:18.140 --> 00:15:19.360
I haven't tried pictures.

288
00:15:20.420 --> 00:15:22.760
Well, if I can find her on the Facebook page,

289
00:15:22.780 --> 00:15:24.400
I can show everybody what she looks like.

290
00:15:24.420 --> 00:15:25.900
How does she spell her name?

291
00:15:27.760 --> 00:15:28.200
Evelyn.

292
00:15:28.260 --> 00:15:29.360
I don't know the way you spell Evelyn.

293
00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:31.960
Like E-V-E and then Lynn?

294
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:32.880
She's not showing up.

295
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:34.320
That's why.

296
00:15:35.300 --> 00:15:37.340
She's been in the program since 2021.

297
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:39.220
She's an OG.

298
00:15:40.820 --> 00:15:41.300
That's why.

299
00:15:41.400 --> 00:15:42.980
I know I know what she looks like.

300
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:44.340
It's bugging me.

301
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:47.480
Just share.

302
00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:48.480
I can't share the name.

303
00:15:48.740 --> 00:15:53.080
But I just think this is a great thing for all the rest of us

304
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:58.360
guys to be like, you know, I'm challenged to actually think

305
00:15:58.360 --> 00:15:59.520
of steps, right?

306
00:15:59.520 --> 00:16:00.380
I don't know about you.

307
00:16:00.820 --> 00:16:05.100
Oh, E-V, and then she spells it E-V and then L-Y-N-E.

308
00:16:05.880 --> 00:16:06.020
Yeah.

309
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:09.340
Oh, she's beautiful.

310
00:16:10.680 --> 00:16:11.200
Yeah.

311
00:16:11.300 --> 00:16:12.220
Is this her?

312
00:16:12.760 --> 00:16:14.100
That's her, yeah.

313
00:16:14.420 --> 00:16:15.000
Y'all.

314
00:16:15.820 --> 00:16:18.040
OK, wait, let me get, let's see if I've

315
00:16:18.040 --> 00:16:19.720
got any more photos of her.

316
00:16:20.380 --> 00:16:23.140
Because that's just, oh.

317
00:16:23.140 --> 00:16:23.780
Thanks, guys.

318
00:16:23.780 --> 00:16:25.220
This is, this means a lot.

319
00:16:25.580 --> 00:16:26.720
I was so worried.

320
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:28.800
I was like, oh, no, what if like the Council of the Elders,

321
00:16:29.060 --> 00:16:30.820
like, I'm going to be one of the reasons I wasn't.

322
00:16:30.820 --> 00:16:30.820


323
00:16:30.920 --> 00:16:32.320
Those are the only two photos.

324
00:16:33.340 --> 00:16:33.820
Yeah.

325
00:16:33.900 --> 00:16:35.040
But she's adorable.

326
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:37.060
Look at you guys together.

327
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:38.260
You look so cute.

328
00:16:39.420 --> 00:16:42.460
Slight clarification, are we the Council of Elders here?

329
00:16:43.020 --> 00:16:43.380
Yes.

330
00:16:43.820 --> 00:16:46.600
OK, because I was like, who is he talking about?

331
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:48.180
He's talking about y'all.

332
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.480
OK, so, and we get to do Monday nights however you guys want.

333
00:16:52.620 --> 00:16:53.740
Sometimes I'll have teaching.

334
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:54.840
Sometimes David will.

335
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:56.020
Sometimes Jackie will.

336
00:16:58.280 --> 00:17:01.300
You might actually start seeing, someday,

337
00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:02.740
you might start seeing Brian.

338
00:17:03.340 --> 00:17:07.300
And so, OK, so we feel good.

339
00:17:07.500 --> 00:17:10.119
You're going to tell her that you guys have inched

340
00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:12.960
your way to level three without even realizing it.

341
00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:14.060
But it's just 3A.

342
00:17:14.619 --> 00:17:17.099
You don't have to worry about calling each other,

343
00:17:17.099 --> 00:17:17.780
boyfriend or girlfriend.

344
00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:21.940
But now, I mean, but it is fun to like,

345
00:17:21.940 --> 00:17:24.220
when you guys have these longer dates,

346
00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:27.099
you know, because one of you is going to come to town

347
00:17:27.099 --> 00:17:28.240
for a whole day, right?

348
00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:29.660
Is that what you're going to start doing?

349
00:17:29.820 --> 00:17:30.340
Yeah.

350
00:17:30.420 --> 00:17:33.160
So that's how you slip in an afternoon

351
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.180
or a lunch with other people,

352
00:17:35.360 --> 00:17:37.720
is it was so much time together.

353
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:40.860
It's easy to start booking that.

354
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:44.300
And I just, there's a girl I'm coaching in the community

355
00:17:44.300 --> 00:17:45.840
because she's dating a guy too.

356
00:17:45.840 --> 00:17:48.140
And it's been a couple months now.

357
00:17:48.280 --> 00:17:49.740
And I said the same thing.

358
00:17:49.740 --> 00:17:51.860
I said, it's time for you to start putting him

359
00:17:51.860 --> 00:17:52.820
in front of people.

360
00:17:53.060 --> 00:17:55.520
And I said, you don't want to put it in front of the people

361
00:17:56.340 --> 00:17:58.280
who are going to be like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh.

362
00:17:58.780 --> 00:18:00.920
No, but you want to put it in front of people

363
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.620
you trust and admire that have made

364
00:18:03.940 --> 00:18:05.260
healthy relationship decisions.

365
00:18:05.280 --> 00:18:08.960
And you want to be able to like, do a fun thing with them.

366
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:12.480
Go bowling, go putt-putt, you know, not take,

367
00:18:12.760 --> 00:18:14.500
no, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

368
00:18:14.660 --> 00:18:16.640
We went apple picking was the first date.

369
00:18:17.780 --> 00:18:18.180
Apple picking?

370
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:19.120
Yeah.

371
00:18:19.840 --> 00:18:21.620
So cute, oh my God.

372
00:18:21.620 --> 00:18:22.900
Yeah, so we went and picked apples.

373
00:18:23.340 --> 00:18:26.100
Although there's a lot you can say about the apple,

374
00:18:26.560 --> 00:18:29.520
putting it between your teeth for a tango dance.

375
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:32.960
Hey, she did go for the kiss on the first date.

376
00:18:33.280 --> 00:18:34.920
And I just said, I just said, hey, you know what?

377
00:18:34.980 --> 00:18:36.580
I said, I got to get out of here before I'm in trouble.

378
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:37.640
I said, time to run.

379
00:18:37.740 --> 00:18:39.080
And she laughed and laughed.

380
00:18:39.180 --> 00:18:42.080
And I said, and she said, thank you for giving boundaries.

381
00:18:42.180 --> 00:18:43.260
And I was like, what?

382
00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:46.300
No one's ever thanked me for not falling through before.

383
00:18:46.300 --> 00:18:49.340
Yeah, I'm really excited for you

384
00:18:49.340 --> 00:18:50.800
and we'll be praying for you.

385
00:18:51.060 --> 00:18:54.040
And we're your, you know, we are your accountability group.

386
00:18:54.060 --> 00:18:56.700
So David, yeah, like there's,

387
00:18:56.700 --> 00:18:58.720
part of dating in community is this.

388
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:01.540
It's you guys holding each other accountable

389
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:06.300
and checking in for sure.

390
00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:09.360
Okay, okay.

391
00:19:09.360 --> 00:19:11.400
So I want to, so I'm going to actually,

392
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:13.620
I want to check in with all of you tonight

393
00:19:13.620 --> 00:19:16.540
and see where you're at in your dating world

394
00:19:16.540 --> 00:19:19.840
and your heart healing world.

395
00:19:20.300 --> 00:19:21.780
But seriously, if you came online,

396
00:19:22.600 --> 00:19:26.180
next Tuesday night is a combination,

397
00:19:26.340 --> 00:19:27.500
it's a community event.

398
00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:31.000
We're going to do some he said, she said, single spotlight.

399
00:19:31.220 --> 00:19:33.560
I will say, David, I'm going to encourage you

400
00:19:33.560 --> 00:19:36.340
to not let me put you in the spotlight.

401
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:37.340
Okay.

402
00:19:38.280 --> 00:19:40.380
Because I feel like if I were her,

403
00:19:40.380 --> 00:19:41.900
that would make me really uncomfortable.

404
00:19:41.900 --> 00:19:42.200
Yeah.

405
00:19:43.420 --> 00:19:45.080
She loved the second spotlight.

406
00:19:45.780 --> 00:19:47.900
I had one person who I was talking with

407
00:19:47.900 --> 00:19:49.460
and they said, you know, after your second spotlight,

408
00:19:49.560 --> 00:19:51.120
she was like, I don't think we're a match.

409
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:54.080
She's like, you know, you're just a little too like funny.

410
00:19:54.740 --> 00:19:55.460
And-

411
00:19:55.460 --> 00:19:55.460


412
00:19:55.660 --> 00:19:56.720
Oh my gosh, but you know what?

413
00:19:56.900 --> 00:19:57.660
Great, right?

414
00:19:58.120 --> 00:19:58.500
Yeah.

415
00:19:58.940 --> 00:19:59.980
And she just said,

416
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.040
You know, like she didn't like my seven foot,

417
00:20:02.040 --> 00:20:04.120
seven foot tall and plays guitar joke.

418
00:20:05.560 --> 00:20:07.300
But, but everyone thought it was hilarious.

419
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:09.300
She's like, people take themselves way too seriously.

420
00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:11.360
And so she said it was good that you gave that humor.

421
00:20:11.620 --> 00:20:12.680
Well, tell her I apologize.

422
00:20:12.840 --> 00:20:15.580
I didn't realize y'all were, you, you kept it under wraps.

423
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:16.860
So I didn't know about her,

424
00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:18.940
else I wouldn't have put you in the spotlight so quickly.

425
00:20:19.260 --> 00:20:24.160
It's still pretty early, like I think it's still early, so.

426
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:26.100
It is still early, so it was good.

427
00:20:26.260 --> 00:20:28.880
All right, so I want you all to show up next Tuesday night.

428
00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:31.080
I want you to all look good.

429
00:20:33.500 --> 00:20:35.940
And I want you to see how the camera is,

430
00:20:35.940 --> 00:20:38.020
like the light is facing me.

431
00:20:38.380 --> 00:20:40.620
We got a nice picture behind me.

432
00:20:40.980 --> 00:20:44.140
I can see my face, but it's not so much

433
00:20:44.140 --> 00:20:46.420
that it's like this, right?

434
00:20:47.020 --> 00:20:49.280
So you want to make sure you got it going on.

435
00:20:49.300 --> 00:20:50.700
John, I could see you really well.

436
00:20:50.940 --> 00:20:52.040
David, I could see you well.

437
00:20:52.540 --> 00:20:54.480
Mike, you're kind of lounging, it's just the dudes.

438
00:20:54.740 --> 00:20:57.320
So I don't know if you're remotely even interested

439
00:20:57.320 --> 00:20:59.000
in being spotlighted anymore,

440
00:20:59.060 --> 00:21:00.900
but there's a bunch of new women that have come in

441
00:21:00.900 --> 00:21:02.320
since you were spotlighted before.

442
00:21:03.220 --> 00:21:06.020
David, I don't know, David, have we spotlighted you yet?

443
00:21:07.420 --> 00:21:11.160
Yeah, I'm the one with the 31 ugly Christmas sweaters

444
00:21:11.420 --> 00:21:13.460
from like a year ago.

445
00:21:15.300 --> 00:21:17.720
Wait, you got spotlighted a year ago?

446
00:21:19.140 --> 00:21:20.960
Yeah, about around that time.

447
00:21:21.800 --> 00:21:23.860
Was I, you know, cause I took a little hiatus.

448
00:21:24.040 --> 00:21:25.700
So was I, I may have missed it.

449
00:21:26.380 --> 00:21:29.800
I think it was, I think you had missed it.

450
00:21:30.760 --> 00:21:33.320
Long story short, I moved cross country.

451
00:21:33.900 --> 00:21:34.620
Where are you now?

452
00:21:34.660 --> 00:21:35.340
You're in Illinois?

453
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:36.640


454
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:38.140
Oh, okay.

455
00:21:38.220 --> 00:21:40.240
Where, yeah, where no one else is, so.

456
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:43.040
You and a bunch of other fields, man.

457
00:21:43.420 --> 00:21:44.180
Yeah, but-

458
00:21:44.180 --> 00:21:46.140
I've been to Iowa, it is beautiful,

459
00:21:46.280 --> 00:21:47.900
but okay, so you're in Iowa.

460
00:21:48.560 --> 00:21:51.140
Yeah, in a doctorate program for chiropractic.

461
00:21:51.740 --> 00:21:52.220
Nice.

462
00:21:52.860 --> 00:21:55.180
My social life went out the window.

463
00:21:56.700 --> 00:21:58.140
This is like the first men's meeting

464
00:21:58.140 --> 00:22:01.540
I've been able to get to in life.

465
00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:04.340
My nephew, my niece's husband

466
00:22:04.340 --> 00:22:06.160
is just finishing up that program.

467
00:22:06.600 --> 00:22:08.260
Bless his heart, he's always studying.

468
00:22:08.500 --> 00:22:10.520
It's as bad as my seminary program.

469
00:22:10.800 --> 00:22:13.740
I'm currently studying 241 questions

470
00:22:13.740 --> 00:22:15.220
for an exam on Wednesday.

471
00:22:16.360 --> 00:22:16.880
And it's like-

472
00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:18.160
Well, I'm honored.

473
00:22:18.360 --> 00:22:20.360
Okay, do you think you'll be able

474
00:22:20.360 --> 00:22:22.340
to come on next Tuesday night?

475
00:22:22.540 --> 00:22:23.960
I'll make time for it.

476
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:25.060
What about you, John?

477
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:27.200
Yeah.

478
00:22:28.420 --> 00:22:29.780
You gonna come, John?

479
00:22:30.600 --> 00:22:32.260
Yeah, I remember where I was last week.

480
00:22:32.360 --> 00:22:33.980
I was at a concert, that's where I was.

481
00:22:34.280 --> 00:22:36.000
Well, all right, I'm letting it go.

482
00:22:36.800 --> 00:22:39.100
Okay, Christopher DeLuca, is it DeLuca?

483
00:22:39.580 --> 00:22:40.580
How do you say that, your name?

484
00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:44.000
You gonna be there next week too?

485
00:22:46.340 --> 00:22:47.920
I probably can be.

486
00:22:48.800 --> 00:22:51.640
Well, I mean, this is only if you guys wanna meet girls.

487
00:22:51.740 --> 00:22:54.540
I mean, there's like 200 women that come to these suckers.

488
00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:58.060
All right, I just took a screenshot of all of you.

489
00:22:58.300 --> 00:22:58.820
I better see-

490
00:22:58.820 --> 00:23:01.020
Oh, no, I was looking down and made a weird face.

491
00:23:01.540 --> 00:23:01.920
Oh, no.

492
00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:03.040
It's okay, it's just for me.

493
00:23:03.580 --> 00:23:04.160
Okay, cool.

494
00:23:04.320 --> 00:23:07.840
This is just for me, just so I can, I mean, yeah.

495
00:23:08.280 --> 00:23:10.040
Okay, so Mike went off camera.

496
00:23:10.280 --> 00:23:12.100
So I'm gonna come back to him.

497
00:23:12.900 --> 00:23:14.060
David from Pennsylvania,

498
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:16.540
catch me up on what's going on in your life.

499
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:25.080
Hey, I don't know, just general stuff,

500
00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:26.840
hard work stuff, or-

501
00:23:26.840 --> 00:23:27.560
Yeah, hard work, date.

502
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:29.180
Tell me how you deal with the hard work

503
00:23:29.180 --> 00:23:30.260
and how you deal with dating.

504
00:23:31.120 --> 00:23:32.760
Yeah, I'm not dating right now,

505
00:23:33.360 --> 00:23:36.700
but David Wright from Canada is in the middle

506
00:23:36.700 --> 00:23:38.560
of getting me introduced to someone

507
00:23:38.560 --> 00:23:41.300
that I apparently years ago wasn't worked for.

508
00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:42.220
So, yeah.

509
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:44.840
I actually have three people now

510
00:23:44.840 --> 00:23:45.880
that I wanna introduce you to,

511
00:23:46.060 --> 00:23:47.540
but I'll email you,

512
00:23:47.540 --> 00:23:49.140
because there's three people who I,

513
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:50.740
I showed one girl at church her picture

514
00:23:50.740 --> 00:23:52.880
and she said, why haven't you introduced me to that man?

515
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:53.840
He's so good looking.

516
00:23:54.140 --> 00:23:55.920
So I'll send you her picture today

517
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:57.400
and you can see if you're interested.

518
00:23:58.380 --> 00:23:59.760
Okay, are they near you in Kingston

519
00:24:00.220 --> 00:24:02.240
or to Ottawa, it's like the first one

520
00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:04.080
you already told me about, or?

521
00:24:04.940 --> 00:24:06.460
They're near me in Kingston,

522
00:24:08.060 --> 00:24:10.180
but they're willing, they all have said,

523
00:24:10.340 --> 00:24:12.120
oh, I love Pennsylvania, I'll go to Pennsylvania.

524
00:24:12.360 --> 00:24:13.900
David, how old are you?

525
00:24:15.660 --> 00:24:17.980
I'm a young 51.

526
00:24:18.280 --> 00:24:20.900
Okay, I'm gonna show you a picture of somebody.

527
00:24:22.580 --> 00:24:24.140
She's my single girlfriend.

528
00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:26.020
She was dating a guy.

529
00:24:26.800 --> 00:24:28.480
Well, let me ask you this, I will warn you.

530
00:24:28.560 --> 00:24:30.020
She's got four girls.

531
00:24:30.460 --> 00:24:32.660
Are you remotely interested in becoming a parent?

532
00:24:33.660 --> 00:24:36.840
Well, was it, not that it matters that much,

533
00:24:36.860 --> 00:24:39.220
but I'm just curious, is she divorced or widowed?

534
00:24:39.540 --> 00:24:40.360
She's divorced.

535
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:41.760
Okay.

536
00:24:41.900 --> 00:24:42.960
Her husband,

537
00:24:44.740 --> 00:24:48.680
he has a very severe porn addiction.

538
00:24:51.460 --> 00:24:51.920
I'm sorry.

539
00:24:52.180 --> 00:24:53.520
They were doing counseling

540
00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:58.760
and she thought things were going well, but not.

541
00:25:00.740 --> 00:25:06.560
Yeah, that's like a very deep material. That's it's sad. I'm sorry. Well, and it's hard because

542
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:10.180
The guy that she was dating

543
00:25:10.800 --> 00:25:12.760
she met through

544
00:25:12.760 --> 00:25:18.640
online and mutual friends, but he was like 15 my age like 58 or 59 and

545
00:25:19.900 --> 00:25:25.200
he has two grown kids and I had a feeling the kids was gonna end up being an issue and

546
00:25:25.320 --> 00:25:29.020
They were doing a lot of dating in my opinion

547
00:25:29.020 --> 00:25:33.340
This is the downside when you have kids like I know you don't want to introduce them to a guy right away

548
00:25:33.580 --> 00:25:39.960
But the downside is you can fall in love with each other, but someone's still a parent and if you pretend that that's not true

549
00:25:41.760 --> 00:25:44.180
Then you know you can get hurt

550
00:25:45.560 --> 00:25:47.900
You can yeah, okay

551
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:59.360
Her name is Jackie and she's in the program too. She actually she actually heads up the single-city Nashville stuff

552
00:25:59.700 --> 00:26:00.900
Okay, so

553
00:26:02.120 --> 00:26:06.620
I could tell her to be online next week and you guys can maybe

554
00:26:07.100 --> 00:26:12.480
Interact in the chat or something. Do it Rizzo. I

555
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:14.720
Just want her to be a really good man

556
00:26:15.740 --> 00:26:17.880
And you're perfect. I think she's like 14 my age

557
00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:19.300
146 so

558
00:26:21.540 --> 00:26:27.680
It's just something you just need you well between David's people and me sending you to people you just need to start

559
00:26:29.500 --> 00:26:33.820
Dating. Yeah. Well, I mean I have a little issue now because my passports expired

560
00:26:33.820 --> 00:26:37.900
So I can't cost in the Canada like the good old days you need more than just a driver's license now

561
00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:43.780
So I grew up in Buffalo, New York, and I would hop across over in a Toronto, you know growing up

562
00:26:43.780 --> 00:26:46.940
I didn't know you could cross the border without a passport

563
00:26:46.940 --> 00:26:52.380
It's a Canada back in the day. All you needed was your driver's license. You could drive right over the bridge in Niagara Falls

564
00:26:55.040 --> 00:26:59.860
It just depends on the on the guard so it's far easier to get into Canada

565
00:27:09.400 --> 00:27:12.480
In level six man, he's you're awesome Dave

566
00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:18.120
There is there anything you want to bring up or ask the team about or me about David

567
00:27:19.760 --> 00:27:20.360
Um

568
00:27:21.380 --> 00:27:27.260
Do you remember the little prophecy that David and Jackie Dorman God about David's coming into the program? I know it's real short

569
00:27:27.260 --> 00:27:30.980
But oh, yeah, but like I I'm messing it up

570
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.760
From the field the Davids are coming in from the field

571
00:27:35.500 --> 00:27:37.720
Okay. Yeah, that that's yeah

572
00:27:38.620 --> 00:27:44.960
The reason I say cuz he hasn't like once he came in was after the last damn time they mentioned that so

573
00:27:46.340 --> 00:27:46.780
hmm

574
00:27:47.620 --> 00:27:51.240
Are you coming to the five-year reunion in Austin?

575
00:27:52.600 --> 00:27:57.520
Yeah, I got a VIP. I went all out good cuz I will be there Brian and I will be there

576
00:27:57.520 --> 00:27:59.920
But there's gonna be a lot of the girls in the program there

577
00:28:01.460 --> 00:28:04.620
Okay, so that will be another great way for you to meet people

578
00:28:05.760 --> 00:28:06.240
And

579
00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:09.900
Like I'll promote you on my socials

580
00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:13.240
Because there's a lot of there's a lot of singles. I live in Nashville

581
00:28:13.240 --> 00:28:18.620
There's a lot of singles in mine. There's a lot of single women in this community. Oh

582
00:28:19.320 --> 00:28:20.280
No pressure

583
00:28:21.260 --> 00:28:28.080
Okay, let me show you a picture of another person who I absolutely adore she does not have kids she's amazing

584
00:28:29.260 --> 00:28:30.480
Can't be real with you

585
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:34.760
I find myself being a little bit shy because of recent events that happened in my life

586
00:28:34.760 --> 00:28:38.940
But not nice much that but because I grew up with only two brothers no sisters

587
00:28:38.940 --> 00:28:44.760
So that makes it even more kind of distorted how you see women and just being honest

588
00:28:44.760 --> 00:28:49.180
No, like what does that mean? Like are you picky about what she has to look like? Tell me what does this mean?

589
00:28:50.740 --> 00:28:50.960
it

590
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:55.160
It's a title. I mean, I but yeah

591
00:28:55.300 --> 00:28:57.940
I've gotten over most of it

592
00:28:57.940 --> 00:29:04.500
But what it means is it's a lot easier to get sucked into lies and objectification on the negative side

593
00:29:04.900 --> 00:29:07.680
Because you didn't have to live with them growing up

594
00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:12.780
You know I'm saying and and instead of seeing them as people and human beings, you know, I'm saying

595
00:29:13.420 --> 00:29:17.740
All right, somebody spit tell me in English. What is he trying to tell me? What's he trying to tell me?

596
00:29:20.680 --> 00:29:23.260
I'm speaking neurodivergent speak

597
00:29:23.260 --> 00:29:25.420
Okay, I love it, okay

598
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:28.160
Okay, David

599
00:29:29.100 --> 00:29:29.820
Shanna

600
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:36.480
Shauna she's also amazing. She just okay. So she does not live here in Franklin, but she comes here all the time

601
00:29:36.500 --> 00:29:42.760
she lives I forget where but she's like a major director of a

602
00:29:43.020 --> 00:29:50.040
Retirement home, but she just wrote a play that's actually being shopped around in Nashville

603
00:29:50.040 --> 00:29:57.640
So, yeah really kind of she's really kind of interesting too, okay, so I appreciate it

604
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:07.200
I did. Okay, wait, hold on. Okay, you guys are so darn cute.

605
00:30:07.260 --> 00:30:10.660
Okay. All right. Well, we're gonna keep working on you. All

606
00:30:10.660 --> 00:30:13.400
right, john. Yeah, let's do one.

607
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:15.720
I'm doing a

608
00:30:17.220 --> 00:30:21.040
tank just hanging out. Going out.

609
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:26.200
Are you? Huh? Are you dating?

610
00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:33.500
Ah, yes. Well, I'm, I've been dating a woman, but it's been

611
00:30:33.500 --> 00:30:38.360
like a situation ship. And she's really so this is what she's

612
00:30:38.360 --> 00:30:40.160
really nice. I really like her. I just can't.

613
00:30:40.760 --> 00:30:43.220
Who's making it a situation ship you or her?

614
00:30:43.780 --> 00:30:47.440
It would be me. And this is this is becoming a pattern. This is

615
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:55.840
like the third one. Oh, yeah. And it's like, but I but the

616
00:30:55.840 --> 00:30:59.200
bad thing is, I kind of know from the get go. And I'm just

617
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:02.880
going, well, they're really nice. Just, you know, give them

618
00:31:02.980 --> 00:31:06.260
a chance. But I but I kind of pretty much knew from the

619
00:31:06.260 --> 00:31:09.080
beginning. It wasn't like someone that I thought that I

620
00:31:09.080 --> 00:31:10.940
would want to pursue to marry.

621
00:31:12.220 --> 00:31:14.760
So okay, so if she's not somebody you want to pursue,

622
00:31:14.920 --> 00:31:16.480
then why are you still talking to her?

623
00:31:16.740 --> 00:31:21.920
Exactly. Because she's really nice. And and she's easy to

624
00:31:22.020 --> 00:31:23.640
hang out with. She's we have

625
00:31:25.020 --> 00:31:27.460
does she like you? Does she really like you?

626
00:31:31.300 --> 00:31:36.260
So that's so we've been like, on and off breaking it up. But

627
00:31:36.260 --> 00:31:36.820
then

628
00:31:36.820 --> 00:31:38.740
how long have you been on and offing?

629
00:31:42.260 --> 00:31:44.000
Probably like six months.

630
00:31:48.140 --> 00:31:50.920
It's kind of like she's like, Oh, we can be friends. We'll

631
00:31:50.920 --> 00:31:52.960
just hang out. And then we just

632
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:55.860
yeah, I have a girlfriend who's there's a guy that she's been

633
00:31:55.860 --> 00:31:58.580
dating for a year. That's kind of pulling that crap with her.

634
00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:00.960
Well, we can keep hanging out. No.

635
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:05.420
It's not just me either. I mean, I like hanging out with her

636
00:32:05.420 --> 00:32:05.620
though.

637
00:32:06.520 --> 00:32:11.560
No, I know. You're both paying bad. No. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

638
00:32:11.700 --> 00:32:14.000
You're you're how old are you john?

639
00:32:15.520 --> 00:32:19.720
63? Well, actually, this month, I'll be in October. I'll be 64.

640
00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:22.740
Okay, so let me ask you, then let me ask you a question. Do you

641
00:32:22.740 --> 00:32:24.980
actually want to be with? Are you? Have you ever been married?

642
00:32:26.300 --> 00:32:29.120
Yeah, my wife passed away. I've been married twice. My wife

643
00:32:29.120 --> 00:32:33.040
passed away in 2019. I have five kids. So that's the other thing

644
00:32:33.040 --> 00:32:37.780
too. So I've been there. You know, as I'm kind of at first, I

645
00:32:37.780 --> 00:32:41.240
wanted to get remarried after she passed away, because I'm so

646
00:32:41.240 --> 00:32:44.500
used to it. And now I've gotten used to

647
00:32:44.620 --> 00:32:48.960
it's actually very common for widowed people. They want to

648
00:32:48.960 --> 00:32:53.380
touch back very quickly. But if they get past that window, then

649
00:32:53.380 --> 00:32:57.800
they don't anymore. And the bigger question is, you may not

650
00:32:57.800 --> 00:33:03.560
want to like and that's okay. Then but then you would not be

651
00:33:03.560 --> 00:33:07.540
the 3m guy, you'd be the guy that's just I'm hang out. I

652
00:33:07.540 --> 00:33:11.740
mean, and there are plenty of women who either a feel the same

653
00:33:11.740 --> 00:33:18.640
way as you do just want to hang out and then that's fine. Or you

654
00:33:18.640 --> 00:33:24.780
guys are just passing the time. The problem is, um, David, yes,

655
00:33:24.780 --> 00:33:30.220
we are recording. And the problem is, it is going to stop

656
00:33:30.220 --> 00:33:33.480
you from meeting somebody that you actually married.

657
00:33:33.760 --> 00:33:38.800
And I know if I do meet someone that, that I would want to get

658
00:33:38.800 --> 00:33:40.280
married, but I just haven't met that person.

659
00:33:40.980 --> 00:33:44.140
Okay, so let me ask you a question. What are you doing?

660
00:33:44.500 --> 00:33:47.980
What effort are you putting into to meet and go out with other

661
00:33:47.980 --> 00:33:48.380
women?

662
00:33:49.560 --> 00:33:52.020
I've been going to like meetup groups and stuff and meeting

663
00:33:52.020 --> 00:33:55.600
women like that. That's how I met this one. And it's kind of,

664
00:33:55.640 --> 00:33:58.680
I kind of liked a little meetup group because we kind of go out

665
00:33:58.560 --> 00:34:01.700
and, and she's part of it. And that's part of it.

666
00:34:01.700 --> 00:34:03.760
Okay, but you're not going to meet a different woman.

667
00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:06.900
I'm going to a different meetup group to where they have events.

668
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:09.940
I've been doing that. And so I've met a couple other people,

669
00:34:10.260 --> 00:34:16.139
but not and at least I haven't pursued anymore, knowing that I

670
00:34:16.199 --> 00:34:17.900
wasn't interested from the get go.

671
00:34:18.060 --> 00:34:19.520
Where do you live, John?

672
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:23.520
I'm in Brentwood. I'm in Northern California, San Francisco

673
00:34:23.520 --> 00:34:24.340
Bay Area.

674
00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:24.780
Okay.

675
00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:26.020
At Walnut Creek.

676
00:34:26.520 --> 00:34:29.940
Okay. Well, there's a lot of women your age in the community.

677
00:34:30.300 --> 00:34:31.100
Yeah, I know.

678
00:34:32.940 --> 00:34:36.080
Are you, do you think you might be interested in any of them or

679
00:34:36.080 --> 00:34:36.659
you don't know?

680
00:34:36.900 --> 00:34:40.300
You know, I don't know. And I have a hard time telling who's

681
00:34:40.300 --> 00:34:41.940
my age and who's not my age.

682
00:34:42.080 --> 00:34:45.040
Okay, well, I can fix that next Tuesday night.

683
00:34:45.040 --> 00:34:49.600
Okay. And I'm kind of, I'm, I will be honest, I'm kind of

684
00:34:49.600 --> 00:34:53.679
setting my ways. I don't really, you know, want to be moving

685
00:34:54.139 --> 00:34:58.740
like far. Or I mean, I figure if God's got someone for me, he's

686
00:34:58.740 --> 00:34:59.980
got someone close. I don't need

687
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:06.900
So are you, so are you willing to date long distance if she's willing to move to you?

688
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:08.620
Or no?

689
00:35:09.820 --> 00:35:11.120
You might as well be honest.

690
00:35:11.320 --> 00:35:13.000
You'd have to be really special.

691
00:35:14.480 --> 00:35:19.680
I mean, it would have to be like, well, tell, ask me, tell me why you joined the program,

692
00:35:19.900 --> 00:35:20.000
John.

693
00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:23.240
What do you, what do you, what are you trying to get out of this program?

694
00:35:24.140 --> 00:35:32.440
Just to reconnect and not just sit at home because, you know, so to, to have a fellowship

695
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:37.660
and reconnect and, you know, I figure if, if there's someone out there, God can, you

696
00:35:37.660 --> 00:35:42.360
know, bring him, you know, have somebody close by, or I'm sure there's people in the group

697
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:43.360
who are semi-close.

698
00:35:44.800 --> 00:35:47.040
So I don't know, friends of friends or something.

699
00:35:47.860 --> 00:35:51.280
All right, well, I say come next Tuesday.

700
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:51.660
Okay.

701
00:35:51.660 --> 00:35:52.840
Let's give it a shot.

702
00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:59.420
See if we can find some local ladies that are your age and we'll, we'll see.

703
00:35:59.680 --> 00:36:01.680
It's one thing to do.

704
00:36:01.780 --> 00:36:03.140
It's one thing to do.

705
00:36:03.980 --> 00:36:04.260
Okay.

706
00:36:06.940 --> 00:36:07.500
Okay.

707
00:36:07.860 --> 00:36:09.700
Why didn't you bring that up earlier?

708
00:36:10.780 --> 00:36:12.340
Because I, I forgot.

709
00:36:13.120 --> 00:36:13.680
Okay.

710
00:36:13.680 --> 00:36:19.440
So she, so David Wright is telling us, I'm going to, I'll jump in and answer this question.

711
00:36:20.020 --> 00:36:21.580
She brings up age a lot.

712
00:36:21.860 --> 00:36:23.720
Tell me, what does she say about age?

713
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:24.600
How old is she?

714
00:36:25.560 --> 00:36:27.720
She's 43 and I'm 33.

715
00:36:28.200 --> 00:36:28.520
Okay.

716
00:36:28.520 --> 00:36:29.860
What is she saying about it?

717
00:36:30.300 --> 00:36:34.220
Well, like today she said that she feels like we're in a different generation and that like,

718
00:36:34.220 --> 00:36:35.540
I don't always get all her references.

719
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:40.820
And I just said, Hey, like I get them, like you're the same age as my, my brothers.

720
00:36:41.420 --> 00:36:44.000
So it's not, it's not a big deal for me.

721
00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:45.820
Here's what, you know what, you know what though?

722
00:36:46.100 --> 00:36:47.440
I would nip it in the bud.

723
00:36:47.960 --> 00:36:51.360
I would just say Evelyn, cause she's older than you.

724
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:55.920
So it might be code for, she's feeling uncomfortable that she's the older person.

725
00:36:56.500 --> 00:37:00.340
And you know, traditionally it's okay when the guy's older, but not the girl.

726
00:37:00.700 --> 00:37:05.920
And so I think it's okay for you to say, Evelyn, is age an issue for you?

727
00:37:06.540 --> 00:37:09.120
Is our age difference a yellow flag for you?

728
00:37:10.040 --> 00:37:11.480
I'd be straight up with her.

729
00:37:11.680 --> 00:37:13.980
Like you, you've brought it up a number of times.

730
00:37:13.980 --> 00:37:17.500
I just need to see how much of a concern this is for you.

731
00:37:17.520 --> 00:37:21.600
It's not a concern for me, but my age isn't going to change.

732
00:37:22.900 --> 00:37:25.920
So I'm just trying to get, I'm just curious.

733
00:37:26.200 --> 00:37:27.340
That's how you ask.

734
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:31.720
I'm curious how concerned you are about this.

735
00:37:34.020 --> 00:37:35.580
That's what I would do.

736
00:37:35.680 --> 00:37:36.500
That's a good answer.

737
00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:37.240
Yeah.

738
00:37:37.240 --> 00:37:38.200
I'm just curious.

739
00:37:38.900 --> 00:37:39.720
I'm just curious.

740
00:37:41.240 --> 00:37:47.460
Because you'll say I'm good with it, but what I don't want to do is have you keep bringing

741
00:37:47.460 --> 00:37:51.800
it up and then three or six months from now, it's like the thing.

742
00:37:52.840 --> 00:37:54.800
Because I can't change my age.

743
00:37:54.860 --> 00:37:56.220
I get your references.

744
00:37:56.840 --> 00:37:59.800
Even if I were the same age, that doesn't mean I'd always get your jokes.

745
00:38:00.160 --> 00:38:03.820
I mean, Brian is only four years older than me, but he watches movies.

746
00:38:03.820 --> 00:38:09.800
I don't like, I'm going to, I'm going to embarrass myself because the guy who's doing the ceremony

747
00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:14.120
of the wedding, him and Brian went on this whole riff because I've never seen the princess

748
00:38:14.120 --> 00:38:14.580
bride.

749
00:38:14.660 --> 00:38:18.060
And so they were doing the whole thing, the wedding ceremony.

750
00:38:18.240 --> 00:38:20.140
And I had no idea this whole joke.

751
00:38:21.120 --> 00:38:21.680
Inconceivable.

752
00:38:22.780 --> 00:38:24.700
Marriage brings us together today.

753
00:38:27.040 --> 00:38:30.240
To celebrate that blessed arrangement.

754
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:31.240
See?

755
00:38:31.240 --> 00:38:32.940
So you guys all know.

756
00:38:32.940 --> 00:38:36.120
As you wish.

757
00:38:36.900 --> 00:38:43.640
So all that to say, you could be in the same age, like you guys are 20 years younger than

758
00:38:43.640 --> 00:38:46.000
him and you still know what he's talking about.

759
00:38:48.680 --> 00:38:51.280
So that was an official movie in college.

760
00:38:51.360 --> 00:38:54.740
I mean, it's just, I mean, I've heard it's just an official movie.

761
00:38:54.780 --> 00:38:57.080
I will need to watch it apparently at some point.

762
00:38:59.040 --> 00:38:59.600
Okay.

763
00:39:00.260 --> 00:39:04.420
Um, Tim, I see you and Christopher, you guys aren't on camera yet, so I'm not going to

764
00:39:04.420 --> 00:39:05.120
call on you yet.

765
00:39:05.720 --> 00:39:07.640
David 40 in Iowa.

766
00:39:07.700 --> 00:39:09.500
We started to talk about you.

767
00:39:09.920 --> 00:39:10.900
So you're in Iowa.

768
00:39:11.100 --> 00:39:12.660
Did you move there for your job?

769
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:15.480
Uh, moved there for school, for chiropractic.

770
00:39:16.460 --> 00:39:16.460


771
00:39:16.460 --> 00:39:16.460


772
00:39:16.560 --> 00:39:17.080
I'm sorry.

773
00:39:17.240 --> 00:39:17.880
You already told me.

774
00:39:18.360 --> 00:39:18.360


775
00:39:18.940 --> 00:39:19.820
So when did you graduate?

776
00:39:21.000 --> 00:39:24.740
Uh, at this point, uh, forever from now.

777
00:39:25.100 --> 00:39:25.620
I understand.

778
00:39:26.000 --> 00:39:26.660
Uh, yeah.

779
00:39:26.660 --> 00:39:30.460
Uh, it's like 20, 29 probably.

780
00:39:30.740 --> 00:39:31.220
Okay.

781
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:35.060
So you would need somebody who's either local or willing to come to you.

782
00:39:35.060 --> 00:39:36.060
Pretty much.

783
00:39:36.200 --> 00:39:36.780
That's okay.

784
00:39:37.540 --> 00:39:38.180
That's okay.

785
00:39:39.300 --> 00:39:49.220
And also wanted to have kids and within like five years, plus or minus is apparently difficult

786
00:39:50.240 --> 00:39:53.040
to meet someone on that same level.

787
00:39:53.040 --> 00:39:59.980
I've tried dating locally and it's more of a headache and robbing me of peace.

788
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:12.340
than instilling any sort of friendship or someone that's wanting to do stuff that grieves the Holy Spirit versus just develop a friendship, you know?

789
00:40:12.340 --> 00:40:20.380
Or it's someone that wants to change me away from who I am to what they want, and I'm like, nah, I'm good, you know?

790
00:40:21.380 --> 00:40:32.480
And I hate having that attitude. The last gal I dated, it kind of went in that direction, and I kept saying, hey, we're not doing this.

791
00:40:32.820 --> 00:40:39.000
And she kind of went too far. I didn't really speak it out loud against her.

792
00:40:40.580 --> 00:40:51.400
I started distancing myself from her in the sense of, okay, I'm recognizing very quickly that I am having less and less time to do anything.

793
00:40:52.460 --> 00:41:00.260
I haven't even watched a TV show in the last three months to the point where I was just like, I should probably just cancel all my streaming services,

794
00:41:00.260 --> 00:41:04.580
because at this point, it's just money that's not even going into anything.

795
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:13.160
Haven't played a video game, haven't gone out hiking. I get in my flow of working out twice a day.

796
00:41:13.440 --> 00:41:22.580
I pledged a professional fraternity so that push comes to shove in three or four years, I can get a job anywhere.

797
00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:27.420
I'm looking at Iowa to see what states are close to Iowa.

798
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:39.420
Illinois to the east, Wisconsin to the north, all those weirdos with cheese and Packers fans.

799
00:41:39.520 --> 00:41:42.320
Okay, how far away are you from Wisconsin?

800
00:41:46.120 --> 00:41:49.320
That was just a short joke, all you Wisconsin people on the call.

801
00:41:50.160 --> 00:41:54.800
I see Iowa. Okay, Iowa. Oh my gosh, that's where Iowa is.

802
00:41:54.800 --> 00:42:04.720
Yeah, so Green Bay is 244 miles by comparison. I should have done Milwaukee. I guess that's closer.

803
00:42:05.200 --> 00:42:11.660
Yeah, I see it. Well, you guys are all amazing. I'm going to start putting my little feelers out.

804
00:42:13.420 --> 00:42:18.260
But can you come on for a little bit next Tuesday night? You're going to make it work, right? You're going to make it work for a little bit.

805
00:42:18.540 --> 00:42:23.400
I'll make it for Tuesday. It's just been Mondays have been exceptionally difficult.

806
00:42:24.560 --> 00:42:30.320
Yeah, you're good. And here's the thing. I'm actually telling you that I'm going to be the one hosting it.

807
00:42:30.340 --> 00:42:38.560
And I'm already telling you what kind of night it is. I'm going to cheat and make you guys, I'm going to let you guys look good.

808
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:41.320
Because that's what I do. I'm going to cheat.

809
00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:43.360
She has powers, trust me.

810
00:42:43.880 --> 00:42:45.420
You're under the impression I can look good?

811
00:42:45.860 --> 00:42:51.440
No, no, yeah. But here's the things I'm going to go ask you to go find in your house because I'm going to ask the girls to do this.

812
00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:52.820
But I'm not going to warn them.

813
00:42:55.300 --> 00:43:02.780
Let's see, I'm going to make a list of random things and you guys can help change this list.

814
00:43:03.220 --> 00:43:04.560
Like an ugly Christmas sweater?

815
00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:08.320
No, no. Well, OK, but I was going to.

816
00:43:08.460 --> 00:43:09.440
That's a Halloween one.

817
00:43:09.580 --> 00:43:15.880
OK, no, I was going to do something as simple as first thing I was going to do is go to your cupboard.

818
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:21.640
Except for salt and pepper, find me a seasoning that you like to cook with.

819
00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:24.280
That'll get me in trouble.

820
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:28.560
Why?

821
00:43:29.680 --> 00:43:31.360
Because I like spicy things.

822
00:43:31.720 --> 00:43:33.020
Perfect. I love it.

823
00:43:33.080 --> 00:43:37.260
OK, another thing, that's something in the kitchen.

824
00:43:38.560 --> 00:43:41.280
I might ask you to go find me a book.

825
00:43:44.040 --> 00:43:47.860
And it's OK, David, for you to pull out your chiropractic book.

826
00:43:48.080 --> 00:43:50.980
That's your I was going to say it's literally sitting next to me.

827
00:43:51.200 --> 00:43:53.100
So that's the one you'll pull up.

828
00:43:53.540 --> 00:43:54.980
OK, let's see.

829
00:43:55.260 --> 00:43:59.300
Do you guys like our guys into because Brian has one here?

830
00:43:59.300 --> 00:44:01.480
Well, we're starting to merge his stuff into my home.

831
00:44:01.500 --> 00:44:02.200
See, there you go.

832
00:44:02.820 --> 00:44:04.940
And he's got like a Pittsburgh Steeler blanket.

833
00:44:05.120 --> 00:44:09.460
Do you guys all have like blankets of your team or something that you like?

834
00:44:10.060 --> 00:44:12.840
There's also a Brian thing.

835
00:44:13.140 --> 00:44:13.880
Do you guys have blankets?

836
00:44:14.860 --> 00:44:17.440
Like if I don't, you don't have a blanket.

837
00:44:19.300 --> 00:44:20.260
What do you do in your.

838
00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:23.720
We're like sure.

839
00:44:25.120 --> 00:44:26.600
Oh, yeah, a sport.

840
00:44:26.720 --> 00:44:29.040
I'll say, yeah, go find something sports memorabilia.

841
00:44:30.300 --> 00:44:32.560
OK, OK, I'll keep it simple.

842
00:44:32.560 --> 00:44:33.040
Sports.

843
00:44:33.040 --> 00:44:38.000
Oh, I'm going to go ask you to grab your toothpaste,

844
00:44:39.640 --> 00:44:42.820
because that's how we'll see whether you squeeze from the bottom or the top.

845
00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:44.840
Or you might have one of those fancy ones.

846
00:44:45.340 --> 00:44:45.640
Oh, rollers.

847
00:44:47.460 --> 00:44:47.940
Mm hmm.

848
00:44:48.380 --> 00:44:49.900
You're going to grab your toothpaste.

849
00:44:55.500 --> 00:44:56.060
And.

850
00:44:57.860 --> 00:44:59.980
I'm going to go ask you to grab your old.

851
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:06.720
This one of your oldest items of clothing, it could be a hat pair of shoes in the closet.

852
00:45:11.060 --> 00:45:20.700
And it could be that you don't have to necessarily wear it, but y'all like when I was cleaning out because I had to make room for Brian and my tiny little she shed. So I just pulled. See, there you go.

853
00:45:20.700 --> 00:45:46.880
I pulled out y'all and it still fit. How is that? I still, I found my high school cheerleading letterman jacket in my closet. Sucker still fit too. So that would be fun for people to show up in something fun. Okay. Those are the five items. A seasoning you cook with, a book you're reading, something sports memorabilia, your toothpaste, just cause, um, oldest item in your closet.

854
00:45:48.320 --> 00:46:14.180
All right, but you're going to have to like, pretend to leave the room and come back with it, you know, that will make it some fun. Okay. So David, you're in school. Life sucks a little bit right now. Totally feeling you glad you're here tonight. Um, but some girl is going to be okay with that. Brian was okay with me being in school.

855
00:46:14.180 --> 00:46:43.600
I mean, he would argue that now he goes, now that he proofreads all my papers, he'll go, so what did we get on that paper? What did we get? He proofreads. So he thinks he gets the wee. He's about to read a 12 page paper on the doctrine of purgatory from medieval church. So he's going to be excited about, Hey, he, I said, Hey, I have to write a paper either about the early church or the medieval church. Do you care? And he goes, I would like the medieval church. I'm like, fair enough.

856
00:46:43.600 --> 00:47:04.780
You're doing the proofreading. I'll let you pick. So it's actually, it's been fascinating. Okay. Christopher, thank you for putting a shirt on. I appreciate you. All right. Tell us how you are doing and let me know if you're going to be around. Do you have a problem with Packers fans? Wait, does somebody say that they had a problem with Packer fans?

857
00:47:04.780 --> 00:47:16.040
Oh, okay. Okay. But go bears go. Oh, I see. I'm just slow. Oh my gosh. Y'all are so funny. All right. Christopher, how are you doing?

858
00:47:17.520 --> 00:47:34.380
Oh, that's a loaded question. Hang on. Is this on? Can you hear me? Yep. I should turn up the game. Hold on. This microphone's old. I I'm trying to get used to this microphone. Uh, I'm that kind of a loaded question. Not great. In the grand scheme of things.

859
00:47:34.780 --> 00:47:36.960
Sorry. Do you want to tell us or no?

860
00:47:39.800 --> 00:47:42.440
Uh, I, I don't know.

861
00:47:43.220 --> 00:47:46.920
Uh, give us the genre of what your concern is right now.

862
00:47:48.300 --> 00:48:11.920
Uh, well, there's, there's a really long story with something that I was, I was kind of doing for a few months that I, I honestly not rather not get into, but, um, the, the dating life's not great and hasn't ever really been stellar, but it's just not great. I had, um, I had a date with somebody recently that just ended with the both of us agreeing not to see each other. So, okay.

863
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:25.740
Okay. Well, you know what? That's okay. Chris, will you be around? You've heard me chatter for the last 20 minutes. So will you be around next Tuesday night? And are you open to being spotlighted?

864
00:48:26.680 --> 00:48:29.720
Uh, yeah, I can, I can make time the seventh, right?

865
00:48:29.620 --> 00:48:32.440
Yeah. Now how old are you and where do you live?

866
00:48:33.580 --> 00:48:34.420
34 Syracuse, New York.

867
00:48:34.420 --> 00:48:54.480
Oh, perfect. Okay. So just so you guys know, when I do like exactly how David writes, looks your name, your age and your area, um, is really helpful because we only want women to kind of drop hankies to you that, that fit in your do hickey.

868
00:48:55.180 --> 00:49:11.200
And so, um, because I'm going to kind of round robin it, it's really going to allow you to pay attention to what's going on in the chat this time, instead of like me concentrating a 30 minute conversation on you and you're like, oh my gosh, how do I read what women are saying?

869
00:49:11.520 --> 00:49:22.160
And so it'll give you a chance to poke around and see what other women are answering and I'll make sure they do the same thing, that they have their name, their age and that their camera ready.

870
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:28.680
And so you might read somebody's answer in the chat going, oh my gosh, that's Sally and she's my age.

871
00:49:28.800 --> 00:49:30.540
Let me go find her in the picture.

872
00:49:30.560 --> 00:49:35.320
And then you go to the participation, then you can kind of find her and you can kind of scan the things.

873
00:49:36.140 --> 00:49:43.880
Um, and then if you guys are interested, you can kind of like, you know, make a play, just say, and make a play.

874
00:49:45.080 --> 00:49:45.480
Um,

875
00:49:45.520 --> 00:49:48.560
I think I can be, I think I can be there next week.

876
00:49:48.560 --> 00:49:49.900
I'll just be out of town.

877
00:49:49.900 --> 00:49:54.260
Uh, I'll be, I'll be away on, on business, but I'll have a laptop with me.

878
00:49:54.560 --> 00:49:54.700
Great.

879
00:49:55.480 --> 00:49:55.720
Great.

880
00:49:56.020 --> 00:49:58.780
Well, you know, just know that we're praying for you, dude.

881
00:49:58.960 --> 00:49:59.980
And I'm sorry that you.

882
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:06.940
you're going through stuff, but this team of amazing men, they got your backs.

883
00:50:08.740 --> 00:50:11.580
And so I love that you guys are all, here's what I love.

884
00:50:11.660 --> 00:50:15.340
You guys, I don't ever remember this kind of season and Mike, you've been around long

885
00:50:15.340 --> 00:50:15.500
enough.

886
00:50:15.580 --> 00:50:16.660
You know what I'm talking about?

887
00:50:17.220 --> 00:50:21.940
Like y'all are just here for each other, whether you're dating or not, you're like, I'm going

888
00:50:21.940 --> 00:50:23.000
to support each other.

889
00:50:23.000 --> 00:50:28.260
And I appreciate that because so many men don't have good guy friends, which is why

890
00:50:28.780 --> 00:50:31.200
I want, you know, I just had this conversation with Brian.

891
00:50:31.340 --> 00:50:33.500
I'm like, Brian, do you feel like you're meeting enough friends here?

892
00:50:33.500 --> 00:50:37.660
Cause you know, he moved here for me and he's working and he's hanging out with all my friends,

893
00:50:37.660 --> 00:50:41.180
but I'm like, I want you to feel like you can go find your own friends too.

894
00:50:41.520 --> 00:50:45.500
So I really appreciate that you all, that you're all are doing that.

895
00:50:45.560 --> 00:50:48.080
Um, Tim, hello Tim.

896
00:50:48.200 --> 00:50:48.440
Okay.

897
00:50:48.480 --> 00:50:54.040
So Tim, you're the person I was talking about tonight at the beginning, cause I have my

898
00:50:54.040 --> 00:51:00.900
heart work book handy and tell, tell me, cause you're one of the newer folks on the

899
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:01.480
scene.

900
00:51:02.520 --> 00:51:05.060
Um, how far are you into the book?

901
00:51:06.560 --> 00:51:09.660
Um, I got stuck at the questions for chapter four.

902
00:51:10.020 --> 00:51:12.140
I can't relate to any of them.

903
00:51:12.140 --> 00:51:12.440
Okay.

904
00:51:12.460 --> 00:51:13.780
Well I'm going to go to chapter four.

905
00:51:13.780 --> 00:51:16.820
And I've been busy with work and I haven't done anything in like two weeks.

906
00:51:17.220 --> 00:51:17.740
Okay.

907
00:51:17.740 --> 00:51:18.620
Not a problem.

908
00:51:18.880 --> 00:51:20.120
I'm glad you said that.

909
00:51:20.120 --> 00:51:25.920
We're going to go to chapter four and we might find one of those questions to chat about.

910
00:51:26.420 --> 00:51:29.300
Tell me how you're doing otherwise though.

911
00:51:29.920 --> 00:51:32.980
Um, I'm busy and broke simultaneously.

912
00:51:33.900 --> 00:51:33.960
Awesome.

913
00:51:36.600 --> 00:51:37.280
Awesome.

914
00:51:37.500 --> 00:51:37.900
Busy and broke.

915
00:51:37.900 --> 00:51:39.140
Are you working right now?

916
00:51:40.020 --> 00:51:40.480
Yeah.

917
00:51:40.480 --> 00:51:42.360
I just got home from work.

918
00:51:42.500 --> 00:51:50.100
I commissioned sales and I started a couple months ago, so it's not cash flowing that

919
00:51:50.100 --> 00:51:50.760
well yet.

920
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:51.600
Yeah.

921
00:51:51.600 --> 00:51:52.480
I get it.

922
00:51:53.060 --> 00:51:53.600
Okay.

923
00:51:53.880 --> 00:51:54.780
I get it.

924
00:51:54.780 --> 00:51:57.260
And we're heading into the slow season, so I'm kind of concerned.

925
00:51:57.960 --> 00:51:58.640
I'm sorry.

926
00:51:58.840 --> 00:52:05.680
Is there anything else that you can do on the side to help you?

927
00:52:05.700 --> 00:52:06.640
I'm not sure.

928
00:52:07.940 --> 00:52:12.720
It's tough to do things on the side with my current job.

929
00:52:13.580 --> 00:52:16.940
Over the winter I might just be able to say, Hey, don't give me leads.

930
00:52:16.940 --> 00:52:19.780
Basically just lay me off for the winter or come back next spring.

931
00:52:20.080 --> 00:52:21.540
But I can't do that yet.

932
00:52:22.160 --> 00:52:24.560
What kind of sales are you in?

933
00:52:25.720 --> 00:52:26.600
Residential exteriors.

934
00:52:27.180 --> 00:52:28.420
So roofing, siding, doors, windows.

935
00:52:29.220 --> 00:52:30.100
Oh yeah.

936
00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:31.400
Yeah.

937
00:52:31.400 --> 00:52:31.580
Yeah.

938
00:52:31.600 --> 00:52:35.360
Sometimes I'm the annoying person that knocks on your door after a hailstorm.

939
00:52:36.260 --> 00:52:36.260


940
00:52:36.580 --> 00:52:37.020
Okay.

941
00:52:37.060 --> 00:52:37.640
That's all right.

942
00:52:37.640 --> 00:52:39.020
But you're a good looking guy, Tim.

943
00:52:39.100 --> 00:52:43.000
So, you know, that's how you might meet your spirit mate right there knocking on her door.

944
00:52:43.500 --> 00:52:43.940
Okay.

945
00:52:43.940 --> 00:52:44.860
Where do you live?

946
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:45.680
Tell me where you live.

947
00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:46.840
Minnesota.

948
00:52:47.760 --> 00:52:48.020
Okay.

949
00:52:48.160 --> 00:52:52.080
You look at you guys all up in the Midwest, man.

950
00:52:52.460 --> 00:52:54.160
Up where it gets cold.

951
00:52:54.920 --> 00:52:55.240
Okay.

952
00:52:58.640 --> 00:53:03.180
All right, so this chapter is a lot about like the difference between your heart and

953
00:53:03.440 --> 00:53:05.540
your soul and your mind.

954
00:53:08.260 --> 00:53:11.140
So that's a good chapter though.

955
00:53:11.140 --> 00:53:17.140
I mean, to kind of talk about that, the unhealthy heart is a great pretender.

956
00:53:19.120 --> 00:53:20.120
It's a puzzle.

957
00:53:21.360 --> 00:53:22.960
Oh my goodness, I love it.

958
00:53:23.500 --> 00:53:29.200
When your heart is hurting, it wants the right things for all the wrong reasons.

959
00:53:30.560 --> 00:53:33.560
It wants success only because it feels worthless.

960
00:53:34.480 --> 00:53:37.900
It wants to help others, but only to prove it's good.

961
00:53:37.900 --> 00:53:40.680
It wants expensive things because it can show off.

962
00:53:41.280 --> 00:53:45.820
That broken heart will have you chasing shadows and living in a completely counterfeit life

963
00:53:45.820 --> 00:53:47.760
that is unworthy of you and your true destiny.

964
00:53:48.320 --> 00:53:57.440
So that chapter is a lot about making sure you are taking care of your heart and that

965
00:53:57.440 --> 00:54:03.540
you feel loved and valued and that you remember that you belong to God first and foremost.

966
00:54:03.720 --> 00:54:07.660
So Tim, I'm sorry you're going through that, Chris, I'm sorry that you are going through

967
00:54:07.660 --> 00:54:09.600
you guys, that's real stuff.

968
00:54:10.440 --> 00:54:18.520
And I know for men too, even more so than with women, it is really hard to date when

969
00:54:18.520 --> 00:54:22.880
you feel like your career is a little out of whack because you're kind of like, I feel

970
00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:24.920
like I need to bring something to the table.

971
00:54:25.620 --> 00:54:30.900
So if that's not where you are right now, then continuing to be with these guys and

972
00:54:30.900 --> 00:54:35.280
be friends is a great thing for your spirit in there.

973
00:54:35.280 --> 00:54:36.560
So I'm glad you're here, Chris.

974
00:54:36.560 --> 00:54:37.560
I'm glad you're here, Tim.

975
00:54:37.660 --> 00:54:39.800
It'd be really easy for you guys to blow off tonight.

976
00:54:41.160 --> 00:54:45.100
Mike, we started with you, but I didn't really get to check in and how you are doing.

977
00:54:45.360 --> 00:54:46.000
Tell me how you're doing.

978
00:54:47.000 --> 00:54:52.880
I'm doing amazing, but I just want to just speak to like Chris and Tim.

979
00:54:54.060 --> 00:54:58.760
So we just break our hopelessness and things are coming.

980
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:11.500
Don't keep running, just stay healthy is all. He's got you, right?

981
00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:17.660
We're kind of losing you, Mike.

982
00:55:18.880 --> 00:55:22.720
So, prophetic word. But you know, you guys, the Lord's got you right where you are.

983
00:55:22.900 --> 00:55:25.660
And he sees you, he knows your helplessness, he knows your pain.

984
00:55:26.120 --> 00:55:30.360
He, you know, like Tim, he'll bring the rain, he'll bring what you need.

985
00:55:30.740 --> 00:55:34.140
You just need to trust in him. And like, you know, this last week I had

986
00:55:34.880 --> 00:55:37.800
hopelessness broken off of me. So, Lord, whatever you've done in me, I just pray

987
00:55:37.800 --> 00:55:42.960
that you give to these men on this call. And that, Lord, the web that was enveloping

988
00:55:42.960 --> 00:55:46.560
me, that was just sucking the life out of me that broke, I just pray any web

989
00:55:46.560 --> 00:55:50.000
that's over these guys, we just plead the blood of Jesus over every single one of

990
00:55:50.000 --> 00:55:52.980
them and that you would deliver them and bring them into the freedom because he

991
00:55:52.980 --> 00:55:56.700
who descends that's free is free indeed. And we just, we just proclaim freedom

992
00:55:56.700 --> 00:56:00.520
in Jesus name. Amen. Sorry, I was in my little warfare mode.

993
00:56:00.820 --> 00:56:06.300
So, Mike's doing really good. I don't know, like, even though my circumstances

994
00:56:06.340 --> 00:56:10.500
haven't changed, you know, like last week, I jiggerized my church.

995
00:56:10.540 --> 00:56:13.520
It was kind of funny because the Lord's like, because we're doing prophetic words

996
00:56:13.520 --> 00:56:17.220
and the Lord's like, I want you to hoo-hoo-hoo over people. So I was like,

997
00:56:17.260 --> 00:56:20.400
hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo over, you know, like, because I'm a jigger, right? And I just,

998
00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:25.060
I just released the jigger anointing over all you all in joy. I just more joy over

999
00:56:25.060 --> 00:56:29.720
every one of you guys. Right. You know, and I just appreciate y'all. But, um,

1000
00:56:30.540 --> 00:56:34.700
I have a funny dating history and, um, and, you know, part of it, Rene, but like,

1001
00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:38.900
I have visions, the Lord's like this, and it seems like prophetesses are really

1002
00:56:39.060 --> 00:56:43.140
hard to connect with. I don't know, whatever. But like, I have a call on my

1003
00:56:43.140 --> 00:56:48.180
life and there's has to be a call on my wife as well. Right. You know, and they're

1004
00:56:48.180 --> 00:56:53.040
and like, not just anybody. I mean, well, Rene, I mean, like, you know, like what

1005
00:56:53.040 --> 00:56:56.380
you're going through with your ministry. Right. Like it's not everybody that can

1006
00:56:56.380 --> 00:57:01.560
walk along. I need a peer to walk alongside. I go to the gates of hell quite

1007
00:57:01.560 --> 00:57:06.620
often, and it's not really something for people who, you know, my ex got

1008
00:57:06.660 --> 00:57:11.360
obliterated by the enemy. Right. And like, and I, I'm not going to watch that again.

1009
00:57:11.360 --> 00:57:17.920
Yeah. You know, and so, um, you know, so I just, the Lord's like, you know, I had a

1010
00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:21.260
vision, the scale at this church anyways, you know, and I'm like, Lord, okay, we'll

1011
00:57:21.260 --> 00:57:26.900
make it. So, uh, he has, he has stopped me from doing long distance dating and it's

1012
00:57:26.900 --> 00:57:31.600
annoying as all get out. Right. Like, you know, I feel like there's a kibosh. I have

1013
00:57:31.600 --> 00:57:35.560
money for a ring. I have money for a wedding. I am like, Lord, let's go. And he's

1014
00:57:35.560 --> 00:57:41.060
like, yeah, no, take your time. So, so I won't be there. You know, like it's kind

1015
00:57:41.060 --> 00:57:46.180
of a pointless journey to me there Tuesday. Cause it's just a matter of, I don't

1016
00:57:46.180 --> 00:57:50.500
want to, um, you don't think there's any girls in your area that are in the

1017
00:57:50.540 --> 00:57:55.180
community that weren't there a year ago? I know I'm in a single city spotlight.

1018
00:57:55.300 --> 00:57:58.100
See, here's the thing is I'm looking for somebody who's going to be able to run

1019
00:57:58.100 --> 00:58:01.600
alongside me. And most of the people are way out of shape and not even close to

1020
00:58:01.600 --> 00:58:06.860
being attractive. And my ex became a couch potato. And, um, then we could, we

1021
00:58:06.860 --> 00:58:10.740
couldn't do things. Wait, there are some really beautiful women in the community

1022
00:58:10.740 --> 00:58:12.640
or do you mean the ones that are local to you?

1023
00:58:12.980 --> 00:58:16.580
The ones that are local to me. Right. And so therefore the ones that are in my,

1024
00:58:16.720 --> 00:58:21.220
and so like, you know, and there's this gal and, um, you know, it's so funny.

1025
00:58:21.220 --> 00:58:24.780
She's orbiting me, but she's giving me the time of day, which is kind of funny.

1026
00:58:24.820 --> 00:58:28.400
But, um, I'm like, Lord, the Lord's I'm just letting the Lord move. And I'm like,

1027
00:58:28.400 --> 00:58:32.520
Lord, if I'm free, I really like this to be somewhere, somewhere, something or

1028
00:58:33.500 --> 00:58:38.000
somewhere on a faith journey in that. But I see how she really matches me well.

1029
00:58:38.580 --> 00:58:44.820
Right. Like in that, so I'm looking for a kingdom partner, um, who can be on

1030
00:58:44.820 --> 00:58:49.860
stage with me and do the things that I'm going to be doing. And I, there's a lot

1031
00:58:49.860 --> 00:58:54.280
of people I could marry that want to be, I have people orbiting me constantly.

1032
00:58:56.500 --> 00:59:00.800
And I'm like, and they're like, pick me, pick me. And I'm like, you're beautiful.

1033
00:59:00.860 --> 00:59:03.180
And they're like, well, what's wrong. It's like, cause we just don't match.

1034
00:59:03.520 --> 00:59:07.880
You can't walk with me. You'll get burned up. Right. And like, um, I'm not

1035
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:11.220
allowed to go to evangelical churches for that reason, because we need to be

1036
00:59:11.220 --> 00:59:15.260
unequally yoked. So I have a distinct, I'm sorry, what kind of church do you go

1037
00:59:15.940 --> 00:59:18.300
to charismatic? Yes, I am.

1038
00:59:18.860 --> 00:59:21.940
You think a charismatic church is not an evangelical church.

1039
00:59:22.840 --> 00:59:28.920
Okay. So excuse me, I stand corrected, ma'am, but, um, I was just curious.

1040
00:59:29.100 --> 00:59:30.360
I'm just curious.

1041
00:59:31.240 --> 00:59:37.160
So, I mean, I was evangelical for most of my life, which we did. We had the

1042
00:59:37.160 --> 00:59:38.340
father, son and the Holy spirit.

1043
00:59:38.720 --> 00:59:43.140
Gotcha. You, you, you want to be, cause like the church I go to the new church

1044
00:59:43.140 --> 00:59:47.960
I'm going to with Brian, it is definitely deep in the word, but it also deep in

1045
00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:49.180
the Holy spirit. So.

1046
00:59:49.520 --> 00:59:53.320
See that, that would be fine, you know? And like, and so it's, it's my faith.

1047
00:59:53.440 --> 00:59:57.380
It's I'm like, Lord, I'm really annoyed, but like, I just trust that you're good.

1048
00:59:58.060 --> 00:59:58.520
Right.

1049
00:59:58.520 --> 00:59:59.980
I mean, you are.

1050
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:07.600
I mean and David Wright said it like you're looking for something really specific and so

1051
01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:11.160
You know, you're just gonna have to trust God on it

1052
01:00:11.160 --> 01:00:17.420
And I you know people would argue I was looking for something really specific and you guys I'm getting married for the first time at

1053
01:00:17.420 --> 01:00:19.860
57 years old so I

1054
01:00:19.860 --> 01:00:24.920
Would argue I was really picky. I was really damn picky and I was like, but like you Mike

1055
01:00:24.920 --> 01:00:28.860
I was like, I need somebody who can do ministry with me who can handle that

1056
01:00:28.860 --> 01:00:32.440
I'm in seminary at 57 years old and who's gonna run alongside that

1057
01:00:33.860 --> 01:00:34.360
and

1058
01:00:35.240 --> 01:00:35.740
so

1059
01:00:36.140 --> 01:00:38.840
So I had a lot of things that were important to me, too

1060
01:00:38.840 --> 01:00:46.460
So I would just say keep running your race and keep trusting God and just making sure that you're giving people a chance

1061
01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:51.820
I mean, I went to school the prophets. Well, yeah. Well, okay, so

1062
01:00:51.820 --> 01:00:58.320
All right, so just so my school the prophets right there's this gal I'm annoyed I'm annoyed like she's just driving me freaking crazy

1063
01:00:58.320 --> 01:00:59.740
She's actually hasn't even been kind

1064
01:00:59.740 --> 01:01:01.980
She's doing out of her way to be a pain in the butt

1065
01:01:02.060 --> 01:01:08.100
But I'm sitting there and there's some gals from the community at school the prophets and so I'm like, let's go

1066
01:01:08.100 --> 01:01:13.240
And as I'm walking up to them, I'm having an open vision of her and I'm like lord

1067
01:01:13.240 --> 01:01:18.420
this is not freaking fair right like you know, and you know, and so I was like and

1068
01:01:19.020 --> 01:01:22.320
And so I couldn't wholeheartedly I took them all out to dinner

1069
01:01:23.060 --> 01:01:26.740
like as a group right but um, but I couldn't wholeheartedly

1070
01:01:28.360 --> 01:01:34.560
I'm not gonna jump in halfway. Yeah, right. And so so that's why I'm saying it's like it's been this crazy faith journey

1071
01:01:34.560 --> 01:01:40.500
And I I actually you guys I prayed for a crazy God story that would go that would glorify him

1072
01:01:41.340 --> 01:01:44.060
When this turns out it's gonna be the most insane thing ever

1073
01:01:44.060 --> 01:01:47.480
But you know, I look back and I'm like, maybe I shouldn't have made that prayer

1074
01:01:47.480 --> 01:01:52.820
But you know like so I just encourage you all like I hope you can take some joy for me today

1075
01:01:53.040 --> 01:01:57.060
You know, my circumstance hasn't changed but like Jesus is good, right?

1076
01:01:57.120 --> 01:02:03.560
Like he's amazing and even if it all doesn't work out. I'm good. I'm perfectly fine and he's

1077
01:02:03.920 --> 01:02:08.780
Right, and I'm really blessed. And like I say, I've had a marriage fund for three years now

1078
01:02:09.400 --> 01:02:13.100
Right, you know a ring and marriage fund like it's like, you know

1079
01:02:13.580 --> 01:02:20.060
If she says yes, it's we could be married in a month or three, you know, like but whatever so anyways

1080
01:02:20.060 --> 01:02:24.200
It's just that's kind of my thing. And that's why I've been reticent to jump on any calls

1081
01:02:25.560 --> 01:02:26.980
I know I

1082
01:02:28.360 --> 01:02:34.700
Hate saying no to people. Are you saying you mean that the community calls like your co-ed calls? Yeah

1083
01:02:34.700 --> 01:02:36.700
That's why you don't that's why you don't see me

1084
01:02:37.460 --> 01:02:44.040
You know what you could do you could always come on to get ministered to and just keep your camera off and change your name

1085
01:02:44.040 --> 01:02:47.420
On the I will be a me government. Oh, yeah. My name is Antigua, but oh

1086
01:02:48.120 --> 01:02:49.940
You know like maybe I can do that, you know

1087
01:02:49.940 --> 01:02:55.340
But I mean if you're trying to if you still want to get blessed by the you know, whatever the teaching is

1088
01:02:55.900 --> 01:03:00.460
Yeah, and I just in those gals that were at the school of prophets were amazing. We're absolutely phenomenal

1089
01:03:01.020 --> 01:03:04.980
Right, but the Lord's like he's kibosh me working like long distance

1090
01:03:04.980 --> 01:03:09.740
So, you know should he school of the prophet not local to you Bethel?

1091
01:03:10.740 --> 01:03:12.980
Yeah, I think that's four hours. So I

1092
01:03:13.660 --> 01:03:17.800
Was like so you're talking like David is two and a half hours. I'm like, that's a lot closer than ready

1093
01:03:17.800 --> 01:03:23.140
I wouldn't consider that long distance but because I can do that in a after work, but I mean, you know

1094
01:03:24.100 --> 01:03:26.140
Brian was three and a half hours away

1095
01:03:26.140 --> 01:03:32.000
It's I would call that long distance because it's not like he can just hop in his car when we before he moved here

1096
01:03:32.000 --> 01:03:34.840
It wasn't like he could just say hey, let's go do dinner. Oh

1097
01:03:34.840 --> 01:03:40.840
We could be out. That would be cool. So and I'm hoping that this works out and that happens that happens and I

1098
01:03:41.800 --> 01:03:46.700
Know the Lord's telling her I just need to let you know, but you know, there's free will and everything

1099
01:03:46.920 --> 01:03:49.300
I would not want to be in her shoes though, because

1100
01:03:52.840 --> 01:03:59.000
You are an eclectic group of men, I love it. I love you all I shall be the six-fingered man

1101
01:04:00.400 --> 01:04:02.400
Killed my father prepared to die

1102
01:04:03.360 --> 01:04:05.640
You special guy don't like

1103
01:04:05.740 --> 01:04:11.540
Thank you. So like honestly Mike like I wouldn't be surprised if someone in this community was like, you know what for you?

1104
01:04:11.760 --> 01:04:14.600
I will go there to be with you because when I said you're a unicorn

1105
01:04:14.780 --> 01:04:17.880
it is so rare to see a man like you Mike and

1106
01:04:18.440 --> 01:04:19.680
Yeah, so just be encouraged

1107
01:04:19.680 --> 01:04:26.040
Don't be discouraged and I would say just don't be afraid because somebody might just jump on a plane and say like I'm ready to

1108
01:04:26.040 --> 01:04:27.340
Meet you. I wouldn't be surprised

1109
01:04:27.780 --> 01:04:30.160
You can either be praying that the Lord wishes

1110
01:04:30.760 --> 01:04:36.140
Releases my kibosh for doing long-distance so that can actually happen or the gal that is actually

1111
01:04:36.140 --> 01:04:41.780
Fife was five feet for me Sunday would actually open her heart and jump in and see that. I'm sorry

1112
01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:47.700
So there's a woman that caught your eye on Sunday. I asked her out in January

1113
01:04:47.700 --> 01:04:50.680
She ghosted me then the Lord called me to her church

1114
01:04:51.060 --> 01:04:52.960
like literally and I'm like

1115
01:04:53.300 --> 01:04:59.980
And I told him no I said absolutely freaking up and after about three months. He's like, are you gonna still how long?

1116
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:01.180
I'm going to get to be disobedient.

1117
01:05:01.820 --> 01:05:02.940
And I was like,

1118
01:05:04.680 --> 01:05:09.820
okay, but you tried and she's basically not reciprocated.

1119
01:05:11.580 --> 01:05:15.280
Yeah. And you know, but now we're in community and actually, and she,

1120
01:05:15.400 --> 01:05:17.940
you know, she's broken a lot of my anxious attachment, which has been amazing.

1121
01:05:18.280 --> 01:05:21.640
Um, I had deliverance of that and like, and so, but she's,

1122
01:05:21.640 --> 01:05:25.220
she's never experienced me. And like this last week I became me again.

1123
01:05:25.220 --> 01:05:29.360
And I was like, Oh, she's in trouble. Cause cause I am back, baby.

1124
01:05:29.360 --> 01:05:33.420
Let's go. I'd be like, dude, I can't tell you how exciting it is.

1125
01:05:33.420 --> 01:05:37.700
So my ex had cancer 15 years ago. And in that journey,

1126
01:05:38.560 --> 01:05:39.040
um,

1127
01:05:41.180 --> 01:05:42.060
I broke

1128
01:05:44.400 --> 01:05:47.380
things inside me broke that I could, that I couldn't, I mean,

1129
01:05:47.380 --> 01:05:50.680
I've done counseling and it hasn't, I couldn't unbreak them.

1130
01:05:50.720 --> 01:05:55.440
And then she filed for divorce, which was like, just broke that further.

1131
01:05:55.440 --> 01:05:59.340
You know, after, after carrying her for three years, you know,

1132
01:05:59.360 --> 01:06:02.340
you know, every, I never missed a chemo appointment.

1133
01:06:02.540 --> 01:06:05.200
I never missed a radiation appointment. I was, you know,

1134
01:06:05.200 --> 01:06:08.860
and then she just jettisoned me from her life. And so, um,

1135
01:06:10.020 --> 01:06:13.720
last week I realized I'm smiling again. And I'm like,

1136
01:06:14.500 --> 01:06:17.540
I'm like, I can't remember the last time I smile.

1137
01:06:19.680 --> 01:06:23.340
And then all of a sudden my joy came back and I was like, Oh, I'm,

1138
01:06:24.100 --> 01:06:26.620
I'm bouncing again. I'm a tigger. Right. You know?

1139
01:06:26.620 --> 01:06:29.080
And then one of my good friends who's known me for a long time, she's like,

1140
01:06:29.080 --> 01:06:32.180
it's really good to have you back. That's the Mike I remember.

1141
01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:34.720
And so it's just, and I just released that you guys,

1142
01:06:34.860 --> 01:06:36.860
you may have been going through a really hard time.

1143
01:06:36.900 --> 01:06:39.700
And that's been my last 15 years has been hell. I mean,

1144
01:06:39.700 --> 01:06:43.340
there's no other way to describe it, but I can tell you he's,

1145
01:06:43.540 --> 01:06:46.980
he is faithful and he will restore the things that are broken.

1146
01:06:47.700 --> 01:06:52.580
And there's great things coming. And I, and I, and I'm a testimony to that.

1147
01:06:53.760 --> 01:06:57.240
And, um, like I said, I feel like I've been veiled for so long.

1148
01:06:57.240 --> 01:07:01.720
And now all of a sudden I'm alive again and I'm seeing things clearly and I'm

1149
01:07:01.720 --> 01:07:02.020
bouncing.

1150
01:07:02.200 --> 01:07:07.280
And I literally picked up people and watch the lady get healed on Sunday from a

1151
01:07:07.280 --> 01:07:09.280
brain injury. And like,

1152
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:13.080
all these crazy things are happening just because I'm in the fullness of me.

1153
01:07:13.500 --> 01:07:17.960
Right. And like, and because he's flowing through me fully. And so like,

1154
01:07:17.960 --> 01:07:21.560
you know, Chris, dude, he's got you. I've been there, bro. I,

1155
01:07:21.560 --> 01:07:25.700
I was playing wow. 19 hours a day for a while. You know, like I just,

1156
01:07:25.700 --> 01:07:29.840
you know, I just, so like, I can't say that. I don't know, but I don't know,

1157
01:07:29.980 --> 01:07:30.580
but I can't say that.

1158
01:07:30.680 --> 01:07:33.640
I'll tell you what. So next time I'm with you guys,

1159
01:07:33.700 --> 01:07:35.760
which will be in a couple of weeks, you know,

1160
01:07:35.760 --> 01:07:40.540
I wrote a book on hope and I know what it's like to feel

1161
01:07:41.320 --> 01:07:42.580
hopeless for sure.

1162
01:07:42.580 --> 01:07:47.080
But my tidbit that I'll give you on this, when it comes to hopelessness,

1163
01:07:48.820 --> 01:07:49.780
um, we,

1164
01:07:50.080 --> 01:07:54.880
the earthly version of hope is like a wish or

1165
01:07:54.880 --> 01:07:55.500
grit.

1166
01:07:56.160 --> 01:08:00.980
It matters how much I feel about and how much energy I put in it.

1167
01:08:00.980 --> 01:08:03.300
But the hope that we have in Christ,

1168
01:08:03.600 --> 01:08:07.180
we actually don't have to do any mustering up.

1169
01:08:07.200 --> 01:08:09.460
We just have to reach for it.

1170
01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:13.000
And so we have to like kind of just say that mantra,

1171
01:08:13.320 --> 01:08:17.399
like I'm going to hope in God. And how do I get to hope in God?

1172
01:08:17.399 --> 01:08:21.740
I get to do it through Christ and I do it by the power of the Holy spirit.

1173
01:08:22.359 --> 01:08:26.880
And so try not to find your hope on your own strength,

1174
01:08:27.580 --> 01:08:31.060
ask the Holy spirit to deposit fresh manna,

1175
01:08:31.399 --> 01:08:34.520
fresh hope every single day. Um,

1176
01:08:34.520 --> 01:08:39.520
and I think that's like the most beautiful thing I can tell you about hope is,

1177
01:08:39.880 --> 01:08:44.140
um, I actually put, talking about the dark night of the soul,

1178
01:08:44.140 --> 01:08:46.240
I put this tattoo on my wrist.

1179
01:08:46.260 --> 01:08:49.840
Why can't I turn my wrist correctly whenever I'm on camera? It's ridiculous.

1180
01:08:49.840 --> 01:08:52.080
It's the Celtic Trinity sign.

1181
01:08:52.460 --> 01:08:56.540
And I put it on my wrist after one of my high school friends committed suicide.

1182
01:08:57.160 --> 01:08:57.899
And I said, you know,

1183
01:08:57.939 --> 01:09:01.399
what is the difference between me and somebody that chooses to end their life?

1184
01:09:01.420 --> 01:09:03.779
And for me, the only difference,

1185
01:09:03.859 --> 01:09:06.700
cause I know what the dark night of the soul feels like that Mike was talking

1186
01:09:06.819 --> 01:09:12.200
about is I know that there is a God who created me a son who died for me and a

1187
01:09:12.200 --> 01:09:15.200
Holy spirit who lives in me. And that is all I need.

1188
01:09:15.260 --> 01:09:19.420
That's enough hope for tomorrow. And so Chris,

1189
01:09:19.420 --> 01:09:23.180
like and Tim, I don't know everything that's going on in your circumstances,

1190
01:09:23.620 --> 01:09:29.260
but I know that the Holy spirit can give you hope that's not in your own

1191
01:09:29.260 --> 01:09:29.660
strength.

1192
01:09:29.920 --> 01:09:35.660
And so all of us are going to commit to praying that over you guys so that you

1193
01:09:35.660 --> 01:09:39.819
feel supernaturally covered and it's not in your strength.

1194
01:09:39.939 --> 01:09:43.600
So don't try to look for this grit. Grit is good,

1195
01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:47.520
but that's not the kind of hope that the Holy spirit has for you.

1196
01:09:47.520 --> 01:09:53.700
And I just really appreciate y'all being so transparent about it because now we

1197
01:09:53.700 --> 01:09:57.860
know how to lift you up and pray for you and intercede on behalf.

1198
01:09:57.940 --> 01:09:59.980
And remember like the other image.

1199
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:07.040
that's coming to me is, you know, when Moses was too tired to lift his hands anymore, and

1200
01:10:07.040 --> 01:10:13.720
Aaron and her lifted those arms for Moses so that he can continue to praise the Lord.

1201
01:10:14.340 --> 01:10:16.280
And so that's what we get to do for you guys.

1202
01:10:16.460 --> 01:10:23.600
We get to supernaturally or figuratively lift your arms in prayer for you if you are too

1203
01:10:23.600 --> 01:10:25.200
tired to do it yourself.

1204
01:10:26.060 --> 01:10:29.040
And I love the fact that David Wright offered to go visit.

1205
01:10:29.520 --> 01:10:33.760
And so you guys, like, definitely reach out to each other, stay connected.

1206
01:10:33.900 --> 01:10:36.800
And I'm super, super grateful for you all.

1207
01:10:36.840 --> 01:10:40.600
Does anybody else have a question or want to share?

1208
01:10:40.820 --> 01:10:45.180
Because then I definitely do want to do some praying before we go out.

1209
01:10:45.900 --> 01:10:53.020
I just want to share for that last gal that I was dating, it kind of just burned me out.

1210
01:10:53.020 --> 01:11:00.540
And that was, like, two or three months ago when I hopped on the call in, like, July when

1211
01:11:00.540 --> 01:11:01.620
I first started school.

1212
01:11:01.720 --> 01:11:05.220
I just kind of felt like not really wanting to spend time with anyone.

1213
01:11:07.260 --> 01:11:15.740
And she sent me a text saying it was just like a call to power for herself.

1214
01:11:15.800 --> 01:11:20.160
She's like, well, you robbed me of being who I'm called to be by God and blah, blah.

1215
01:11:20.160 --> 01:11:25.160
And it was all this, pardon the phrase, I know the call is being recorded, but I have

1216
01:11:25.160 --> 01:11:31.140
no other way to call it out bullshit of you put your hands on me in an inappropriate way.

1217
01:11:31.580 --> 01:11:37.940
If I had done the same thing, you would have been completely justified to just cut ties.

1218
01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:40.440
So it just felt-

1219
01:11:40.440 --> 01:11:43.160
Wait, I'm sorry, did she put her hands on you?

1220
01:11:43.480 --> 01:11:43.820
Yeah.

1221
01:11:44.260 --> 01:11:44.740
Okay.

1222
01:11:45.740 --> 01:11:51.300
So, and, you know, me from 10 years ago, wouldn't have cared.

1223
01:11:51.640 --> 01:11:55.520
But me nowadays, like, it was just like a righteous indignation.

1224
01:11:55.860 --> 01:11:56.460
Yeah.

1225
01:11:56.460 --> 01:11:58.380
I just left me pissed off.

1226
01:11:59.040 --> 01:12:00.080
Well, I'm sorry.

1227
01:12:00.600 --> 01:12:07.180
And so Jackie will, and so I will say this, if that happened a while ago, and Jackie would

1228
01:12:07.180 --> 01:12:13.540
say to, you know, from the heart work that whenever we feel offended, there is an opportunity

1229
01:12:13.540 --> 01:12:14.460
for an upgrade.

1230
01:12:14.780 --> 01:12:20.020
And so I'd ask you to kind of lean into what Holy Spirit is trying to teach you in that,

1231
01:12:20.020 --> 01:12:24.440
like if you're still fed up and frustrated, and you're not going to like talk to other

1232
01:12:24.440 --> 01:12:26.340
women like, like-

1233
01:12:26.880 --> 01:12:33.440
I've tried, but it's half of them are playing those games of, they'll say something, but

1234
01:12:33.560 --> 01:12:42.380
then they go dark for, I don't know if I've just attracted all of the, it's been so long,

1235
01:12:42.380 --> 01:12:52.640
I can't remember the other term, avoidant attachment disorders or avoidant detachment

1236
01:12:52.680 --> 01:12:53.200
starts.

1237
01:12:53.200 --> 01:12:53.340
Yeah.

1238
01:12:53.600 --> 01:12:58.620
I mean, and if you're coming off anxious, then if you haven't been-

1239
01:12:58.620 --> 01:12:59.400
I'm not.

1240
01:12:59.460 --> 01:13:05.040
It's just, I noticed that it's kind of like, like they trail off in communication and I

1241
01:13:05.040 --> 01:13:07.160
don't hear from them for like a week or so.

1242
01:13:07.180 --> 01:13:07.680
Yeah.

1243
01:13:07.680 --> 01:13:08.780
If I was the last one to talk.

1244
01:13:08.780 --> 01:13:11.700
Are these people you're meeting online?

1245
01:13:12.780 --> 01:13:12.780


1246
01:13:13.480 --> 01:13:16.000
So very well could be AI.

1247
01:13:17.120 --> 01:13:17.460
Oh yeah.

1248
01:13:18.180 --> 01:13:18.840
That's it.

1249
01:13:19.000 --> 01:13:24.500
It's just a bunch of other just miscommunication where it just feels like, this feels kind

1250
01:13:24.500 --> 01:13:24.740
of weird.

1251
01:13:24.820 --> 01:13:27.260
I'm not going to keep entertaining this, you know?

1252
01:13:29.560 --> 01:13:32.460
And David, I would say kind of do what John's doing.

1253
01:13:32.580 --> 01:13:36.040
And I go back, I went back and forth doing different things too.

1254
01:13:36.560 --> 01:13:41.120
Like sometimes I put the time and energy into online dating and sometimes I needed to go

1255
01:13:41.120 --> 01:13:44.300
completely off and I would only do things in real life.

1256
01:13:44.300 --> 01:13:48.140
Like I would do meetup groups, I would do local volunteer groups.

1257
01:13:48.680 --> 01:13:57.700
I would go to outdoor sporting events, outdoor fall festivals, you know, kind of thing.

1258
01:13:57.920 --> 01:14:03.320
And so I would say, David, the thing I would encourage you, especially cause you are in

1259
01:14:03.490 --> 01:14:09.770
school and you have such little disposable time, just make sure that you filter in at

1260
01:14:09.770 --> 01:14:15.270
least once a week, something that you like to do that feeds your soul, that's going to

1261
01:14:15.270 --> 01:14:16.410
put you in public.

1262
01:14:17.130 --> 01:14:17.610
I do.

1263
01:14:18.330 --> 01:14:19.090
It's karaoke.

1264
01:14:19.930 --> 01:14:19.930


1265
01:14:19.930 --> 01:14:23.570
So keep doing that and that will help you.

1266
01:14:24.110 --> 01:14:28.310
And my suspicion is you might find somebody right in that kind of a setting.

1267
01:14:28.910 --> 01:14:36.010
So it doesn't have to feel like work for you for sure, but thank you for sharing that.

1268
01:14:36.370 --> 01:14:38.090
And I'm sorry, you're still struggling with that.

1269
01:14:38.270 --> 01:14:40.470
So now we know how to be praying for you too.

1270
01:14:41.050 --> 01:14:42.890
So I appreciate you guys saying that.

1271
01:14:43.070 --> 01:14:44.650
David, did you want to step in?

1272
01:14:45.070 --> 01:14:45.950
Very, very quickly.

1273
01:14:46.150 --> 01:14:52.090
Should I change my name now to just David Wright and not have my name, my number?

1274
01:14:52.090 --> 01:14:53.310
Yeah, take all that other stuff off.

1275
01:14:53.950 --> 01:14:54.430
Okay.

1276
01:14:55.590 --> 01:14:55.990
Yep.

1277
01:14:55.990 --> 01:14:59.970
Because I'm going to specifically say that on Tuesday night.

1278
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:05.700
I, that if I, if I, somebody saw just my name, it means I'm kind of not on the market.

1279
01:15:07.620 --> 01:15:12.340
Um, and so that's why if Mike just keeps Mike, then that's going to be the code for

1280
01:15:12.340 --> 01:15:15.800
he's, he's really not, but John, I'm not letting you do that.

1281
01:15:15.800 --> 01:15:19.660
Cause I want you to branch out of your situation ship.

1282
01:15:21.240 --> 01:15:23.160
I want you to be at least open.

1283
01:15:24.300 --> 01:15:24.960
I am.

1284
01:15:25.980 --> 01:15:27.020
You're going to be open.

1285
01:15:27.480 --> 01:15:28.160
All right.

1286
01:15:31.060 --> 01:15:32.280
Um, David, right.

1287
01:15:32.420 --> 01:15:35.860
Will you close this out in prayer and kind of cover some of the

1288
01:15:35.860 --> 01:15:36.960
stuff that you've heard tonight?

1289
01:15:38.300 --> 01:15:40.000
Yeah, I'd love to father.

1290
01:15:40.000 --> 01:15:43.580
God, I thank you for, uh, the two new men that came tonight, God, or that

1291
01:15:43.580 --> 01:15:45.720
they've come back and, uh, thank you Lord.

1292
01:15:46.660 --> 01:15:50.780
Or father, I thank you for every man in this chat and Renee and her Brian and

1293
01:15:50.780 --> 01:15:52.760
God, we just pray a special blessing over them, father.

1294
01:15:52.760 --> 01:15:54.980
We pray for our spirit mates, Lord.

1295
01:15:54.980 --> 01:15:57.800
We pray for whoever she is and her family, where she is right now.

1296
01:15:57.800 --> 01:15:58.840
We thank you for her.

1297
01:15:59.520 --> 01:16:01.320
We thank you that you have someone for us.

1298
01:16:01.360 --> 01:16:02.280
I thank you for all these men.

1299
01:16:02.360 --> 01:16:05.260
I just thank you for the love that you poured out on us, father.

1300
01:16:05.480 --> 01:16:07.440
And so Lord, I just pray be with Renee and her studies.

1301
01:16:07.740 --> 01:16:10.860
We thank you that she's taken time out of her busy schedule to spend time with the

1302
01:16:10.980 --> 01:16:13.980
man and we thank you that she is a great advocate for us, God.

1303
01:16:14.320 --> 01:16:16.640
And I just pray you bless her and pray you bless everybody.

1304
01:16:17.020 --> 01:16:19.880
I pray specifically for Chris, that he would feel encouragement today, God.

1305
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:23.520
That he would just be encouraged in Lord when he's playing games, that he would

1306
01:16:23.520 --> 01:16:26.240
just feel the love of the spirit when he's playing the video games, Lord.

1307
01:16:26.240 --> 01:16:28.680
And when he just feel your love and your joy.

1308
01:16:29.060 --> 01:16:33.980
And I pray for David and his studies and I just pray for everybody on this call, Lord

1309
01:16:33.880 --> 01:16:38.900
Mike, Tim, John, and we pray all these things in your name, amen.

1310
01:16:40.360 --> 01:16:40.840
Amen.

1311
01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:41.400
Amen.

1312
01:16:41.400 --> 01:16:46.300
You guys, I'm so glad I got to see you tonight and in two weeks, I'm

1313
01:16:46.300 --> 01:16:47.680
going to talk about hope.

1314
01:16:49.280 --> 01:16:52.000
Oh, so is it Tuesday next Tuesday or Tuesday?

1315
01:16:52.000 --> 01:16:55.380
Tuesday is the single spotlight thing.

1316
01:16:55.560 --> 01:16:58.400
And then the next time I'm on deck, I don't know when I'm on deck.

1317
01:16:58.700 --> 01:16:59.700
So we'll find out.

1318
01:16:59.740 --> 01:17:01.180
It's when John's getting hooked up, bro.

1319
01:17:01.180 --> 01:17:02.040
He's just going to be like,

1320
01:17:03.800 --> 01:17:08.180
Oh, and fishing and he's cut and he's coming home and he's going to land it, baby.

1321
01:17:08.240 --> 01:17:09.220
And there's no situation.

1322
01:17:09.500 --> 01:17:09.500


1323
01:17:09.740 --> 01:17:09.740


1324
01:17:10.440 --> 01:17:10.920
I'm just going to, yeah.

1325
01:17:13.060 --> 01:17:15.700
Is that, is that like, like tomorrow?

1326
01:17:16.320 --> 01:17:18.320
No, Tuesday, like next week.

1327
01:17:18.320 --> 01:17:19.060
Oh my God.

1328
01:17:19.180 --> 01:17:19.920
The next week.

1329
01:17:20.200 --> 01:17:20.640
Okay.

1330
01:17:20.920 --> 01:17:21.600
The seventh.

1331
01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:22.600
Okay.

1332
01:17:22.620 --> 01:17:23.800
That's that's good.

1333
01:17:23.840 --> 01:17:24.220
All right.

1334
01:17:24.220 --> 01:17:25.000
I was thinking it's tomorrow.

1335
01:17:25.420 --> 01:17:25.960
So yeah.

1336
01:17:26.600 --> 01:17:27.120
Okay.

1337
01:17:27.120 --> 01:17:27.700
All right.

1338
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:28.800
See you guys.

1339
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:29.400
All right.
