1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:28.000
I'm going to share my screen.

2
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:37.000
I'm going to share my screen.

3
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:42.000
Originally my Friday was clear until this evening.

4
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:46.000
I thought I don't have anything until a lot later.

5
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:50.000
I'm sitting there eating.

6
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:54.000
I get a notification from Zoom.

7
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:58.000
I'm going to share my screen.

8
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:04.000
That's fine.

9
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.000
I was going to say I was playing Candy Crush.

10
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:12.000
I've heard it sucks you in.

11
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:16.000
I've never played it.

12
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:20.000
I've had it on my phone three times.

13
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:24.000
I've had it on my phone for a year.

14
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:28.000
I put it back on.

15
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:32.000
It's so much fun.

16
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:36.000
I have no idea how you play it.

17
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:40.000
It's not an addiction.

18
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:44.000
It just draws you in.

19
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:48.000
When I was stopped at stoplights,

20
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:52.000
I was playing Candy Crush.

21
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:56.000
That's so funny.

22
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.000
That's when you wanted to play.

23
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.000
That's hilarious.

24
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:08.000
How have you been?

25
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:12.000
This has been a really hard week.

26
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:16.000
At work.

27
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.000
We've lost the people who know stuff.

28
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:24.000
She lost 10 people.

29
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.000
Her name is Debbie.

30
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:32.000
She's a believer too.

31
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:36.000
She's finding it very hard.

32
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:40.000
People will come to her with questions.

33
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.000
Those questions were answered by the two people who got laid off.

34
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.000
It's hard.

35
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:52.000
I was talking to the guy that I work with.

36
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.000
I was saying.

37
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.000
We are now this company called Altaeus.

38
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.000
It started January 1.

39
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:08.000
It's not a good feeling.

40
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.000
It's like they don't care.

41
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:16.000
I'm working on a project.

42
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:20.000
The gal is from this company.

43
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:24.000
We are now Altaeus.

44
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:28.000
We merged with them.

45
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.000
This gal is so aggressive.

46
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:36.000
The new leader over clinical operations.

47
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:40.000
I don't know.

48
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.000
They are not people you would like or want to hang out with.

49
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.000
Not.

50
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.000
I have a meeting at 1 o'clock.

51
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:56.000
The doctors.

52
00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:00.000
I don't know how to say it.

53
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.000
They have their patients.

54
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.000
This program is supposed to help them.

55
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:12.000
They are called e-consults with Stanford.

56
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:16.000
It's too intrusive.

57
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.000
On the provider.

58
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.000
The primary care doctor.

59
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.000
We had two doctors.

60
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:32.000
They didn't like the way it was done.

61
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:36.000
We put it on pause.

62
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:40.000
The gal who is leading it changed some things.

63
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.000
It still seems the same to me.

64
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:48.000
It still seems too intrusive.

65
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.000
This company has changed.

66
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:56.000
The manager of Altaeus.

67
00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:00.000
The manager of the department said.

68
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.320
doesn't have any enthusiasm for work, you know?

69
00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:07.520
Because it's losing the people,

70
00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:09.360
but it's not just losing them.

71
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:13.200
It's the big change within the company

72
00:05:13.200 --> 00:05:17.480
that is no longer the company we were hired by, you know?

73
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.240
That's always really challenging.

74
00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:21.280
I know, it's really hard.

75
00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:22.120
Yeah.

76
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:24.000
And I've got two different cultures,

77
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:29.000
especially in the culture that buys you out or whatever,

78
00:05:30.440 --> 00:05:35.000
isn't as healthy as the culture that you were hired by.

79
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:35.840
I'm sorry.

80
00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:37.080
Yeah, yeah.

81
00:05:38.640 --> 00:05:41.600
I'm glad that you're feeling good, though.

82
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:43.600
I mean, all things considered,

83
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.480
like better than what you were concerned that,

84
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.040
you know, that the side effects would be.

85
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:50.680
Yeah.

86
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.560
I thought I'd have much worse side effects,

87
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:56.160
like fatigue and everything, but I didn't.

88
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:57.920
I just had my normal tiredness.

89
00:05:58.840 --> 00:06:01.920
Yeah, so, and then the, I mean,

90
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:05.600
the skin discoloration and a few things like that,

91
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:09.320
those aren't troublesome, really, you know, those things.

92
00:06:09.320 --> 00:06:10.880
Is your doctor pleased?

93
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:13.080
Yeah, yeah.

94
00:06:13.080 --> 00:06:15.840
And I need to make an appointment, I think.

95
00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:18.920
I'm not taking the hormone therapy

96
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:22.320
because it was making me feel kind of weird.

97
00:06:22.320 --> 00:06:23.160
Yeah.

98
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:26.440
So, and I didn't tell the oncologist yet

99
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:27.880
that I'm not doing it,

100
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:31.240
but I wanted to feel good this month

101
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:33.600
when I'm doing the teaching, you know,

102
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.440
four weeks of, I did that this morning.

103
00:06:36.440 --> 00:06:39.320
I was gonna ask, how's it been going?

104
00:06:39.320 --> 00:06:40.160
It was good.

105
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:41.920
I got the course written.

106
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.800
I had one and a half PowerPoints done.

107
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.120
So I have, what, two and a half to do.

108
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:51.520
But I think it went well.

109
00:06:51.520 --> 00:06:53.320
Yeah, yeah, I think it went well.

110
00:06:53.320 --> 00:06:55.040
That's great.

111
00:06:55.040 --> 00:07:00.040
And like, and the interpretation was, went well too.

112
00:07:00.960 --> 00:07:02.480
She's really good.

113
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:03.600
I mean, I don't know if she's saying

114
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:07.760
what I exactly say or not, but she's really quick.

115
00:07:07.760 --> 00:07:09.920
And it's- Yeah, that's great.

116
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:12.480
And I don't lose my train of thought and-

117
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.000
That's great.

118
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.680
Yeah, and I haven't, things are all written out.

119
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:19.400
Yeah. So I can-

120
00:07:19.400 --> 00:07:20.240
Yeah.

121
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:22.440
Get rid of things, I've got the PowerPoint.

122
00:07:22.440 --> 00:07:23.280
Yeah.

123
00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:24.880
I didn't know how it was gonna work

124
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.280
because I thought maybe she would translate my PowerPoint.

125
00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:29.920
And then, so at the very beginning,

126
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.160
I found out she wanted me to use my PowerPoint.

127
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.560
So that was just as well.

128
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:35.880
Okay.

129
00:07:35.880 --> 00:07:36.880
Okay.

130
00:07:36.880 --> 00:07:38.000
Yeah.

131
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:40.520
And you had mentioned at some point,

132
00:07:40.520 --> 00:07:42.160
you never actually asked me,

133
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:43.960
but you had mentioned to some other,

134
00:07:43.960 --> 00:07:45.640
I think an arrest group,

135
00:07:45.640 --> 00:07:49.560
that you wanted to ask me a question about something.

136
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:52.640
But did you get that all figured out on your own?

137
00:07:52.640 --> 00:07:53.880
I don't know what it was now

138
00:07:53.880 --> 00:07:56.120
because you mentioned something about that before.

139
00:07:56.120 --> 00:08:01.120
Yeah, it was related to you teaching the Bible study

140
00:08:03.200 --> 00:08:05.040
or the course, you know.

141
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:07.400
Oh yeah.

142
00:08:07.400 --> 00:08:11.360
I'm vaguely remembering that it was, what was it?

143
00:08:14.440 --> 00:08:18.720
Something about teaching and rest or I don't know.

144
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:19.960
Yeah.

145
00:08:19.960 --> 00:08:20.800
Something like that.

146
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:22.640
Something about rest, that's all I know,

147
00:08:22.640 --> 00:08:23.680
which is why you thought of me

148
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:25.640
and it's like, well, it has to do with rest.

149
00:08:25.640 --> 00:08:28.200
So, but I wasn't quite sure of what the question was though.

150
00:08:28.200 --> 00:08:31.360
And it sounds like, and since you hadn't asked since,

151
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:33.559
you know, hoping that you'd gotten it figured out,

152
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.640
whatever it was, I just wanted to make sure I hadn't like,

153
00:08:36.640 --> 00:08:40.200
you hadn't felt abandoned and unanswered.

154
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.640
So you were unable to ask your question, so.

155
00:08:43.640 --> 00:08:44.480
Yeah.

156
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:47.880
And I think it was when I was writing the course.

157
00:08:47.880 --> 00:08:49.400
Oh, okay.

158
00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:50.240
Yeah.

159
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:55.240
And that, I mean, that was a bit stressed getting it done.

160
00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:59.640
I was late getting it done.

161
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:01.880
I mean, I didn't realize, well,

162
00:09:01.880 --> 00:09:04.560
I had to do all sorts of research and stuff too.

163
00:09:04.560 --> 00:09:08.120
I mean, you know, going back and reading over things

164
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:12.280
and it was so, yeah.

165
00:09:12.280 --> 00:09:16.080
It was so good to go back over this stuff.

166
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.480
You know, it just got me, you know,

167
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.960
and the thing about,

168
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:25.040
that I'm emphasizing through the whole thing

169
00:09:25.040 --> 00:09:29.160
is the glory of God, His relational beauty

170
00:09:29.160 --> 00:09:34.160
and seeing His glory, you know, experiencing it.

171
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:41.520
And I even talked about relationship, love and union today.

172
00:09:41.520 --> 00:09:43.440
Wow, great.

173
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:44.280
Yeah.

174
00:09:44.280 --> 00:09:46.400
So I would put the four together, glory.

175
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:51.440
I mean, glory is really the way it was defined

176
00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:55.320
in this missions course I took,

177
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:58.120
is like His relational beauty.

178
00:09:58.120 --> 00:09:58.960
Yeah.

179
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:00.280
His grace, His love and all that.

180
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.800
and, you know, his holiness and everything like that, too. But

181
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:13.360
so I'm emphasizing that. And I think it's, I'm just enjoying it

182
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:17.920
so much, because, you know, I have a passion for his glory.

183
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.840
And, you know, this week was really rough. And so I was

184
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:24.840
reading some verses last night, and it just brought it out

185
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:31.080
again, he's all about his glory. Yeah. He's all about that

186
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:37.080
and making it known to the nations. Which is ethnic groups,

187
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:47.560
not countries. Yeah. So yeah, so it was really an immediate, you

188
00:10:47.560 --> 00:10:53.040
know, seeing some of the people, some are in Dubai. There's about

189
00:10:53.040 --> 00:10:57.680
two or three in Dubai, some in Sri Lanka. And Sri Lanka is

190
00:10:57.680 --> 00:11:00.720
really going through a hard time. Some couldn't get on the

191
00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:05.960
call because of electricity being out. And their inflation

192
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:12.360
was like 70%. You know, it's like, from what I've heard, it

193
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:17.000
sounds like the government is corrupt. That's what, yeah, so

194
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:24.600
I think somebody was from either was either Kuwait or Yemen. So

195
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:28.800
it was just really, and I don't, I wish, you know, if I was

196
00:11:28.800 --> 00:11:34.160
normally teaching, there would be discussion time. But it's

197
00:11:34.160 --> 00:11:38.240
kind of hard to do that with this. I don't know. You know,

198
00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:43.600
because she would have to translate them. Although one of

199
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:47.360
the gals that's in Dubai can speak English. You know, she's

200
00:11:47.400 --> 00:11:53.720
spoke a bit. But and I would have to break up into groups

201
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:59.720
like you do and discuss things. But there. I don't know. It just

202
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:05.400
doesn't seem to be the time to do that. But I don't know. What

203
00:12:05.400 --> 00:12:05.720
do you think?

204
00:12:06.520 --> 00:12:09.720
I mean, I mean, you can do it just I don't know, just however

205
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.520
you want, whatever you think you could even try it once or you

206
00:12:12.520 --> 00:12:16.440
could try it like at the end of one of your things for like five

207
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.440
minutes or say, Hey, you know, we've got time for one question.

208
00:12:20.760 --> 00:12:24.200
And you can see how the one question goes. You know, instead

209
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:27.800
of like, oh, we've got all of this 15 or 20 or 30 minutes to

210
00:12:27.800 --> 00:12:32.000
fill with this, with this experiment, I'm trying, you

211
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:34.280
could just have like open the floor for like one question or

212
00:12:34.280 --> 00:12:39.560
something. And, you know, me, I used to not do the I, this is

213
00:12:39.640 --> 00:12:42.320
this past rest intensive was the very first time I'd ever done

214
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:47.200
rest groups. I'd always just had q&as. And I'd only done them

215
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:51.320
once a week. But I began to realize what in the many rest

216
00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:53.760
intensives that I would do the importance of meeting more than

217
00:12:53.760 --> 00:12:58.640
once a week, I found that very impactful for people. And then I

218
00:12:58.640 --> 00:13:03.080
decided, for whatever reason, oh, then I decided, you know

219
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.120
what, let's try let's get everyone always wants community.

220
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.800
They're always talking in the rest intensive about how much

221
00:13:09.800 --> 00:13:15.120
they enjoy each other. But because everything's q&a, and

222
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:19.720
then just simply like the live videos on the that posts that

223
00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:22.560
people do for their journey shares, they don't get to

224
00:13:22.560 --> 00:13:26.400
actually interact unless they privately message each other. So

225
00:13:26.400 --> 00:13:29.360
I thought, okay, so let's do something like a small group,

226
00:13:29.400 --> 00:13:32.600
give people an opportunity to interact. Apparently, from

227
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.800
everybody's response, it was like one of everybody's

228
00:13:34.800 --> 00:13:38.320
favorite things in the group. So meaning like in the program, so

229
00:13:38.680 --> 00:13:43.120
anyway, so my point is, for me, I used to not do it either. And

230
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:47.640
it only came up recently, because I, I kept I was

231
00:13:47.640 --> 00:13:50.640
listening for feedback, because I'm always trying to figure out,

232
00:13:50.640 --> 00:13:53.040
okay, where are people getting the biggest thing for their

233
00:13:53.040 --> 00:13:56.880
book? Where are they ship? What is helping them shift the

234
00:13:56.880 --> 00:14:01.760
fastest, you know, and, and so one of the feedbacks I kept

235
00:14:01.760 --> 00:14:05.000
hearing was community and, oh, love getting together with

236
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.960
everybody. And so I thought, well, how do I add this? So I

237
00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:12.120
ended up adding the element, but it worked just fine before then

238
00:14:12.160 --> 00:14:15.680
people were shifting, people were, you know, we're changing.

239
00:14:16.680 --> 00:14:23.240
So it can work either way. And what you could do is what I did

240
00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:27.360
just on a smaller scale, because it you're dealing with more

241
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:29.680
factors than I was, you're dealing with multiple

242
00:14:29.680 --> 00:14:33.080
languages, you know, and a difference in language, not only

243
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.760
between the teacher and then this in the students, but maybe

244
00:14:35.760 --> 00:14:41.480
even between the students. And so so anyway, you could just

245
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:44.480
kind of like experiment with, like a little bit of something.

246
00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:48.320
So now, do all the students speak the same language as each

247
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.920
other? I think they all speak the Sierra Lankan single ease, I

248
00:14:52.920 --> 00:14:56.120
think. Okay, great. Well, I don't know, you could just do

249
00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:00.080
little breakout rooms. Are y'all on zoom? Yeah, it's on zoom.

250
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:06.120
And you could do it for like 10 minutes, give them all a question to talk about

251
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:10.080
in their group, let them handle it however they want, and then bring them

252
00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:12.400
all back in and just let it be real quick.

253
00:15:12.760 --> 00:15:15.160
You know, so you can do it like that.

254
00:15:15.160 --> 00:15:16.680
Cause that's what my rest groups were.

255
00:15:16.680 --> 00:15:17.680
They were an experiment.

256
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:19.120
I was like, let's see if this works.

257
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:23.800
And then, so for you, if you've got more factors involved, you still

258
00:15:23.800 --> 00:15:28.120
try it and experiment like I did, but on a bit of a smaller scale, because

259
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.800
you've got more factors involved, like other languages or in different

260
00:15:31.800 --> 00:15:33.560
countries and all kinds of stuff.

261
00:15:33.560 --> 00:15:36.480
So, but I've just noticed that.

262
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:38.280
That people love it.

263
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:43.520
Now, maybe if I was in y'all situation in the rest intensive and I was a student,

264
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:47.800
maybe I'd enjoy it too, but the reason I'd never added it before is

265
00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:49.480
I'm not big on discussion groups.

266
00:15:49.640 --> 00:15:52.320
I do not like participating in discussion groups.

267
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:53.720
I don't find it fun at all.

268
00:15:54.400 --> 00:15:59.000
And so case in point in, in ed's, um, school of the profits,

269
00:15:59.040 --> 00:16:00.360
they had discussion groups.

270
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:05.360
And I set at a table with him and, and a couple of the people, a couple

271
00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:10.120
of the, a couple of people who support him in, in administrative work.

272
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:14.480
And then another couple of people who are, I don't know, I think

273
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:16.000
they're, they're both in their seventies.

274
00:16:16.040 --> 00:16:19.680
And one of them is taking all of the notes from all of the speakers

275
00:16:19.680 --> 00:16:25.640
and like literally noting and notating everything that they say.

276
00:16:26.280 --> 00:16:27.560
And then his wife sits with him.

277
00:16:27.560 --> 00:16:28.960
So we're all in one table.

278
00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:32.560
And so when everyone breaks out for the discussion time, we don't

279
00:16:32.560 --> 00:16:33.960
even discuss among ourselves.

280
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:37.640
We're busy doing other things and I don't enjoy it.

281
00:16:37.880 --> 00:16:41.520
I just don't, I, I'm not a huge Bible study person.

282
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:43.000
I just don't get much out of it.

283
00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:45.160
Everybody else seems to, I just don't.

284
00:16:45.800 --> 00:16:49.040
So if I don't get much out of it and I don't particularly enjoy it

285
00:16:49.040 --> 00:16:54.000
historically, I didn't want to put it in my program, but everyone else kept

286
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:57.760
saying that they really enjoy that kind of thing, so I was like, well, let's try it.

287
00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:00.680
You know, or they wanted community.

288
00:17:00.920 --> 00:17:06.359
So I thought, well, small group gets you an opportunity to visit with other people,

289
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:10.200
but I put it within a structure of like having them like talk only about rest.

290
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:14.680
And then for you, you could even give more structure of answer of having

291
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:17.400
them ask us this answer specific question.

292
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:22.079
So, because if all, otherwise some of those people, you know, I mean,

293
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:24.040
you can't control the discussion.

294
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.520
So you get on and give them some parameter of a source.

295
00:17:26.520 --> 00:17:29.280
Hey, it's going to be 10 minutes and there's three per group.

296
00:17:29.560 --> 00:17:34.600
So each of you as like three minutes, here's the question, you know, or, or

297
00:17:34.600 --> 00:17:40.440
something, you know, and to more structure you put in place, and I don't

298
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:44.760
mean you need to make it rigid, but the more like few little things that you put

299
00:17:44.800 --> 00:17:49.400
in place, the more successful it's likely to be and effective and helpful.

300
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:53.920
And the thing is that they'll enjoy getting to contribute, getting to

301
00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:55.360
have their say, getting to talk to.

302
00:17:55.360 --> 00:17:57.920
They've been sitting there and listening to a teacher the whole time.

303
00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:02.680
Now they get, now someone else gets to hear them, their opinion, you know, and

304
00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:08.000
they're in the epiphany that they, that they heard, and they always say

305
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:12.720
psychologically that it helps people learn more if they got, if they have to

306
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:16.880
verbalize it, or if they get to express an opinion on the subject or whatever,

307
00:18:17.120 --> 00:18:22.200
they're more likely to connect with the material and own it.

308
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.680
So whatever you want to do, but those are just some ideas.

309
00:18:27.280 --> 00:18:27.840
Yeah.

310
00:18:28.120 --> 00:18:28.640
Yeah.

311
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:33.120
I mean, I technically, I don't know how to do that, you know,

312
00:18:34.600 --> 00:18:35.560
the breakout rooms.

313
00:18:35.760 --> 00:18:36.320
Yeah.

314
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:36.680
Yeah.

315
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:37.920
I, I'm not sure.

316
00:18:38.360 --> 00:18:44.560
I mean, like today there was, I don't know if there was maybe 10 people,

317
00:18:45.360 --> 00:18:46.480
something like that.

318
00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:52.600
Um, I know I'm at the beginning of next class.

319
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:58.560
I'm going to ask them all a question because they had homework and I had

320
00:18:58.560 --> 00:19:02.040
them, I gave them two things to do because they're supposed to have four

321
00:19:02.040 --> 00:19:02.760
assignments.

322
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:10.560
Um, one was to look at all the verses on the great commission and to kind of

323
00:19:10.560 --> 00:19:14.200
combine them and see what Jesus is, is actually commanding.

324
00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:22.000
And, um, and then we can discuss that a bit about, you know, I just

325
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.720
discovered last week or was it this week?

326
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:27.160
I don't remember.

327
00:19:27.160 --> 00:19:32.320
But anyway, that the disciples did not obey the great commission.

328
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:38.040
They did not, they did not go into all the world.

329
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:38.640
Correct.

330
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:39.800
It was Paul.

331
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:40.720
Yeah.

332
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:42.720
Paul was the only one.

333
00:19:43.760 --> 00:19:45.240
They all stayed in Jerusalem.

334
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:49.560
And then eventually though, eventually though they, they traveled, like what

335
00:19:49.560 --> 00:19:56.560
was it, Thomas went to India, you know, that was, that was John.

336
00:19:57.160 --> 00:19:59.960
Wherever it was.

337
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.680
eventually got, you know, was persecuted. They all died horrible deaths, except John,

338
00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:10.480
and because they couldn't kill him. But yeah, they wouldn't, it took them a long time to leave.

339
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:17.920
They got a lot of persecution because they stayed. And in fact, God used persecution to spread them

340
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:28.400
out, not on purpose. Yeah. And then the destruction of Jerusalem too. So it's interesting that they

341
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:36.880
did not, I hadn't realized that before reading something that Don Richardson, I don't know if

342
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:45.280
you know who he was, Peace Child. Well, that sounds familiar. Peace Child, the missionaries

343
00:20:45.280 --> 00:20:53.520
to the Saudi cannibals. And, you know, anyway, it was, it's quite a story. But I got his book

344
00:20:53.520 --> 00:20:57.920
Eternity in Their Hearts. In the very last chapter, he asked that question.

345
00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:01.840
Did the disciples obey the Great Commission? Really?

346
00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:13.200
I had never thought about it. And it, and as I, you know, in Genesis 11, where, well,

347
00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:21.200
in the very beginning, he tells them to be fruitful and multiply and, you know, go into

348
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:28.240
all the world. Correct. And they didn't, they went to Babel, you know, the Tower of Babel.

349
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.480
To try to stay together. Yeah.

350
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:36.720
Isn't that fascinating? I know. And then, and then the disciples, they were sent out into all the

351
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:48.000
world, but it was Paul who first got the heart for the Gentiles. Now, Peter had to be talked to

352
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:55.680
by the Lord a bit, because with Cornelius, you know, and so, and kind of prompted, but you like,

353
00:21:55.680 --> 00:22:00.720
but even Paul talked about the fact, I believe, if I remember correctly, that Peter acknowledging

354
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:06.000
the fact that Peter was really, he didn't say he was called to the, to the Jews, but that he had

355
00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:09.920
a heart for the Jews, you know, all of the disciples did. They had a heart for their own

356
00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:15.760
people. And so it's hard for them to get Phil to get up and leave and, and whatever. So it is

357
00:22:15.760 --> 00:22:23.280
fascinating to you that, that we all, it was just goes to show us that if that's happened multiple

358
00:22:23.280 --> 00:22:29.760
times in history, even with people that saw the son of God in the flesh and lived with him and

359
00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:34.800
knew him better than anyone else after like living with him for four, three years and very

360
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:40.560
in suffering type situations, you know, cause that really bonds you with suffering,

361
00:22:40.560 --> 00:22:46.480
you know, and, and they even didn't obey. And it took them a long time to be pushed out.

362
00:22:47.040 --> 00:22:53.040
That's, you know, just kind of, I don't know, just kind of helps us understand, wow, we, we,

363
00:22:53.040 --> 00:22:58.800
why the Lord pushes us to do it because we're going to have this tendency, this very strong

364
00:22:58.800 --> 00:23:04.400
tendency to not want to do it. Yeah. Yeah. That's so fascinating. I know that, that they've learned

365
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:11.120
so much from, from you, your experience, your heart, your spirit, you know seeing God in the

366
00:23:11.120 --> 00:23:17.200
way that you do having experienced him in the way that you do. And then just there's a gentleness

367
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:26.640
about you that makes people risk more receptive to the truth and feel more safe and able to be open.

368
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:33.600
You know? Oh, thanks. Very helpful. Yeah. I mean, and, and I've also, you know, like I'm

369
00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:38.400
talking about motivation and, you know, and I read somewhere too, and I was

370
00:23:38.400 --> 00:23:43.360
feeling this before I even read this, but that our motivation is progressive

371
00:23:44.800 --> 00:23:51.600
that it progresses because like at the beginning, maybe you see the need or, you know, God, maybe

372
00:23:51.600 --> 00:23:59.840
he's called you and then you see the need and, and then you see, or maybe it's duty or,

373
00:23:59.840 --> 00:24:04.160
and then you feel God's love is, is, you know, you get to know God's love

374
00:24:05.760 --> 00:24:12.320
by experience and then that is moving you, motivating you. And then, you know, when I saw

375
00:24:13.040 --> 00:24:19.120
this whole thing of glory, you know, that was even after I came back from Japan, when I went to a

376
00:24:19.120 --> 00:24:30.640
missions class, 15 week. Anyway, it, it kind of changes now. It's, it's not just the love

377
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:38.640
constraining, but it's, you know, God's glory and, and understanding and experiencing it that,

378
00:24:40.800 --> 00:24:46.480
and I mean, love's involved in it, but that is what, when you see it all the way through scripture

379
00:24:46.480 --> 00:24:59.760
too. Yeah. And yeah. So, I mean, this class is just really, you know, got me jazzed up.

380
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.740
Oh, that's wonderful. Yeah, yeah. Well, is there anything you

381
00:25:07.760 --> 00:25:11.440
like to update me on as far as like, how you're doing with

382
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:16.520
like, I don't know, with rest with, with stress with anxiety

383
00:25:16.520 --> 00:25:22.080
with them? I don't know, just your feeling and interaction

384
00:25:22.080 --> 00:25:29.280
with relationships or I don't know, connection or church or

385
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:31.360
the Lord or anything.

386
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:37.680
I like I was yesterday I was feeling really anxious about

387
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:43.520
this class. And I just called on the Lord, you know. And, and

388
00:25:43.520 --> 00:25:48.320
then you know, when I it just changed things and then reading

389
00:25:48.320 --> 00:25:53.680
some verses about his glory and, you know, reading john 17. It

390
00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:56.520
just kind of changed things. So when I had to get up at five

391
00:25:56.520 --> 00:26:01.040
this morning, which is early for me, because I tend to go to

392
00:26:01.040 --> 00:26:07.600
bed late. But yeah, it was like he had my focus in the right

393
00:26:07.600 --> 00:26:10.680
place when I was teaching the class.

394
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:16.320
Yeah, you just kind of let it go and like, okay, what happens

395
00:26:16.320 --> 00:26:20.840
happens. And then God just takes care of it. The more work that

396
00:26:20.840 --> 00:26:25.200
we put in the more even like the more internal effort and strife

397
00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:28.800
we put towards it, the less likely it is, we're basically

398
00:26:28.800 --> 00:26:33.680
sowing death into it, not sowing life. So it, it, it

399
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:38.560
doesn't have life in order in spirit in order to make it into

400
00:26:38.560 --> 00:26:43.040
make it, you know, good and healthy or whatever. So for

401
00:26:43.040 --> 00:26:47.240
coming into it, just like, okay, Lord, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm not

402
00:26:47.240 --> 00:26:50.600
prepared in a worldly sense. And I knew that you were prepared in

403
00:26:50.600 --> 00:26:53.160
worldly sense. But what I mean is like, there's some, there's a

404
00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:56.280
reason why you're anxious. There's all of these what ifs,

405
00:26:56.320 --> 00:27:00.480
what if I forgotten something, what if, and you know, I'm not,

406
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:04.400
I haven't done my due diligence, what if something is going to

407
00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:08.440
come up, that is going to require something of me that I

408
00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:11.480
either didn't prepare for or didn't know, know to prepare

409
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:14.160
for, you know, that's, that's what creates all this anxiety,

410
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:17.680
right? But if we just approach it is like, No, Lord, you are

411
00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:22.080
going to create the outcome, I am just going to show up. So

412
00:27:22.080 --> 00:27:25.760
Lord, I make myself available, this is you and me showing up

413
00:27:25.760 --> 00:27:30.440
you and me giving ourselves to these people, not knowledge, but

414
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:33.320
ourselves to these people, and therefore the life of the spirit

415
00:27:33.320 --> 00:27:36.160
within you, you know, being unified with Christ, that will

416
00:27:36.160 --> 00:27:39.040
that will do the wonders, you know, Paul even talks about the

417
00:27:39.040 --> 00:27:43.760
fact he says, he says, I very purposefully try to not talk to

418
00:27:43.760 --> 00:27:49.840
y'all in like, big words and with and make everything sound

419
00:27:49.840 --> 00:27:54.560
very, like and speak in very fine speech, he said, because I

420
00:27:54.560 --> 00:28:01.320
want to allow the power of the simplicity of the gospel, to

421
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:06.560
have basically to have all of the all of the glory, because

422
00:28:06.560 --> 00:28:10.040
it's actually not my logic and the words that I use, but

423
00:28:10.040 --> 00:28:12.560
rather the power, the transforming power of just the

424
00:28:12.560 --> 00:28:15.880
message, and you know, the spirit that's in the message of

425
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:21.080
the gospel. So anyway, so I'm excited, you know, you're just

426
00:28:21.080 --> 00:28:24.680
you're, you're resting, you're you're applying it, you're, I'm

427
00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:27.960
one with God, I'm abiding in him. And so he and I are showing

428
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.600
up. And then this is how we transform creation when he and I

429
00:28:31.600 --> 00:28:33.200
are present. It's great.

430
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:41.360
Yeah, it's really good. Yeah, I did for you. Yeah. So and I want

431
00:28:41.360 --> 00:28:45.400
to take the next one, but I'm not sure, you know, yeah, if I'm

432
00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:49.760
going to have the time, or, yeah, I'm not sure yet.

433
00:28:50.080 --> 00:28:55.560
Yeah, well, I would be, it's just an opportunity for people.

434
00:28:55.600 --> 00:29:01.320
And, and so it's just there is someone wants it, but in just,

435
00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:04.320
and it's, I don't know, it's just for every person to

436
00:29:04.320 --> 00:29:07.880
determine between them and the Lord, if that is something that

437
00:29:08.280 --> 00:29:12.480
is needed or wanted, right now, and where they are on their

438
00:29:12.480 --> 00:29:15.520
journey, because God might just be like, yeah, let's have a

439
00:29:15.520 --> 00:29:18.280
different focus for a while, a different, more concentrated

440
00:29:18.280 --> 00:29:23.760
focus in a different area. And so anyway, but I didn't want to

441
00:29:23.800 --> 00:29:28.160
not offer it. And then my incentive that I was making in

442
00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:30.760
in the whole family and friends thing of like, you know, hey, if

443
00:29:30.760 --> 00:29:34.000
you have any family, friends, you can come in for, you can

444
00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:40.000
have the core group core program for free. That wasn't even to

445
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:43.160
incentivize people to share it with family and friends. That

446
00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:45.960
was to incentivize people who were already sharing it with

447
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:49.320
family and friends, that if their friends come, I wouldn't

448
00:29:49.320 --> 00:29:52.560
want to do incentivize people to come in with them. In other

449
00:29:52.560 --> 00:29:56.160
words, it would help support the family and friends give them a

450
00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:59.360
more powerful and transformative and supportive,

451
00:29:59.360 --> 00:30:00.080
experience.

452
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.360
experience to be able to change.

453
00:30:02.560 --> 00:30:08.120
So even me offering the incentives that I had, they were it was just kind of as a as

454
00:30:08.320 --> 00:30:14.400
a way to kind of like love on y'all to give and to offer something to y'all.

455
00:30:14.600 --> 00:30:16.960
But just in case y'all wanted it.

456
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:22.400
And then, like I said, the free incentive was simply to incentivize people

457
00:30:22.600 --> 00:30:26.920
to join with family or friends that they were already choosing to share it with

458
00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:31.760
so that to to just encourage them, hey, you can do this with them.

459
00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:34.440
You can live life in a deeper way

460
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:36.520
with people that you're already living life with.

461
00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:40.080
And I'll provide the means by which you can do that.

462
00:30:40.280 --> 00:30:43.280
Basically, I'll support you in that and doing that.

463
00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:48.600
So anyway, but it's just all it is, is it's just an offer for if people if it's

464
00:30:48.800 --> 00:30:52.560
something that people decide is for them and their and where it is that they are

465
00:30:52.560 --> 00:30:54.600
in their life right now, it's all it is.

466
00:30:54.800 --> 00:30:57.600
So it's here if you if you want it and if

467
00:30:57.800 --> 00:31:02.040
it's not part of what God has you to do, then you go do what God has you do.

468
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:03.640
Yeah.

469
00:31:04.080 --> 00:31:05.360
Yeah, yeah.

470
00:31:05.560 --> 00:31:06.800
It's been really good, though.

471
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:08.760
I'm so glad that you've enjoyed it.

472
00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:09.760
And yeah.

473
00:31:09.960 --> 00:31:12.680
And the people, you know, the other aren't they special?

474
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:14.160
Yeah, that's right.

475
00:31:14.360 --> 00:31:15.040
Yeah.

476
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:16.760
Everybody is. Yeah.

477
00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:17.760
Yes.

478
00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:21.000
Yeah. So the family or friends are coming in.

479
00:31:21.040 --> 00:31:25.720
You know, I said, you know, without applications, they can come in without

480
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:32.200
applying and they can just register, but the people that more because what I've

481
00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:37.760
historically done is I've historically required people to apply.

482
00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:40.320
And the reason I'm talking about this is you had just mentioned, you know, oh,

483
00:31:40.320 --> 00:31:43.280
all of these other people that were that were in the group, weren't they special?

484
00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:47.440
For one thing, God's the one who attracts all of those people, you know, and they're

485
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:53.320
just and they're on the same part of their journey with the Lord as as each other is.

486
00:31:53.520 --> 00:31:55.800
So there's that kind of connection that really helps.

487
00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:58.440
It's like, oh, you understand and you have

488
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:02.080
the same passion to the same extent that I do.

489
00:32:02.280 --> 00:32:03.760
And that just kind of bonds people.

490
00:32:03.960 --> 00:32:09.120
But also I usually take people through an application process where I make sure that

491
00:32:09.320 --> 00:32:13.800
the people that are being attracted are ready for this.

492
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:17.200
Like, is this really, you know, God's timing for it or not?

493
00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:21.720
And I hear the I try to hear the Lord for them as well of whether or not I should

494
00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:28.160
offer them to be able to come in and I and part of that is I don't I want to make

495
00:32:28.360 --> 00:32:32.080
sure that they're that they're ready for it so that they don't get discouraged.

496
00:32:32.280 --> 00:32:34.600
So instead of being encouraged and going

497
00:32:34.800 --> 00:32:39.640
through the program, if if someone came in at the wrong time.

498
00:32:39.840 --> 00:32:42.720
Then they would just get discouraged, they would be to feel defeated,

499
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:45.160
they would feel like, well, why can't I get it when everybody else is?

500
00:32:45.320 --> 00:32:49.680
It's just because they're they're just not at that place yet in life.

501
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:52.160
You know, they've been working on other areas of their life.

502
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:54.080
God's been working on other areas of their life.

503
00:32:54.280 --> 00:32:58.960
But then then there are other people that, you know, they're just they're they're

504
00:32:59.160 --> 00:33:05.560
ready and it helps to create and maintain a particular type of culture in the group

505
00:33:05.760 --> 00:33:12.520
that enables it to be safe for everyone, that enables it to be where everyone's

506
00:33:12.560 --> 00:33:17.480
respectful and respectful of each other's time,

507
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:20.880
respectful of each other's feelings, you know, et cetera.

508
00:33:21.080 --> 00:33:25.880
And and I'm very I'm very protective of that because I try to create an

509
00:33:26.080 --> 00:33:30.680
environment where people feel safe enough to face themselves in ways that they

510
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:34.120
haven't felt safe enough to do up to this point.

511
00:33:34.320 --> 00:33:36.360
They were afraid to face that part of themselves.

512
00:33:36.360 --> 00:33:38.720
They were afraid to expose that part of themselves.

513
00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:41.520
They were afraid to be vulnerable in that area with the Lord.

514
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:45.960
So anyway, and that means that only certain

515
00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:51.160
people who were at a particular walk with their Lord, with the Lord and conduct

516
00:33:51.360 --> 00:33:55.720
themselves in a particular way, get the privilege of coming into the group.

517
00:33:55.920 --> 00:34:01.520
But it creates this environment in which in this community where everyone sees

518
00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:07.680
the tremendous value in each other and just really are able to connect because I

519
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:11.760
try to gather a group that is all about this the same.

520
00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:13.199
You know, everyone's very, very different.

521
00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:16.880
But what I mean is like they're all they're all in kind of like the same phase.

522
00:34:17.080 --> 00:34:20.199
And so that maintains a particular culture

523
00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:25.560
in the group, not a victimhood, but of encouragement, of support and hope.

524
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:26.480
Yeah.

525
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:30.040
And and so that helps maintain that atmosphere.

526
00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:34.040
And anyway, and so it helps everyone enjoy each other's company,

527
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:37.040
you know, enjoy time with each other because they don't listen to each other.

528
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:40.000
Complain. So anyway, I'm really glad that you've

529
00:34:40.199 --> 00:34:44.880
enjoyed it and glad that you've gotten to enjoy visiting with everyone and

530
00:34:45.080 --> 00:34:46.199
and have friends.

531
00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:48.920
And so anyway, that's great.

532
00:34:49.120 --> 00:34:49.960
Yeah, yeah.

533
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:55.280
So I just haven't decided I've got to make a decision soon, though.

534
00:34:55.480 --> 00:34:59.400
Well, you know, it's open until

535
00:34:59.600 --> 00:35:00.120
it's open.

536
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:11.520
Until what is it January I guess the 27th I haven't really thought about it, and yeah I guess it would be open to January 27 I might change that it might be January 26 because.

537
00:35:11.880 --> 00:35:18.160
That would leave me a day to make sure that all the technical stuff is put in place for people.

538
00:35:18.560 --> 00:35:24.520
And that would be joining the conference on the 28th but anyway point is 26 or 27th being the deadline.

539
00:35:25.240 --> 00:35:32.520
I'm just doing a special offer for anyone who joins on the fourth by the 14th that they get to all have an additional.

540
00:35:33.200 --> 00:35:47.720
fireside chat for them and then i'll do they can do the kitchen series, which is the original rest series that I did that's in the in the Facebook group, did you ever watch that one it's in the guides.

541
00:35:48.720 --> 00:35:51.280
um no I watched.

542
00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:58.000
A video or so from from I don't remember it wasn't in the regular.

543
00:35:59.240 --> 00:36:00.280
wasn't in the Facebook group.

544
00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:05.360
It was in the Facebook group, but it was on the side.

545
00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:13.880
Correct yes, those are the guides yes, so it there's there's session one through session 13 that is my original rest.

546
00:36:14.880 --> 00:36:27.480
teachings, the very first ones I ever did in April of 2020 I would just jump on live on random nights of the week and then that actually me jumping in live and just talking about stuff on various topics.

547
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:39.360
Is what became the rest intensive so anyway people, they would have access to that if they join on the 27th of January, but the thing is, by that time they're focused on learning all of these other.

548
00:36:39.600 --> 00:36:45.880
On focused on this other set of teachings, which are the inner his rest ones, you know that you watched already.

549
00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:55.360
So what i'm doing is some people were like well, we wanted to start earlier than January 28 so what i'm doing is i'm giving them the opportunity to.

550
00:36:55.560 --> 00:37:02.120
start early and i'm making it kind of a mini program where they literally can go through a whole course on rest.

551
00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:12.320
And then i'll do a fireside chat where they can ask me questions so that is the benefit of jump of doing it early but you've already that.

552
00:37:12.920 --> 00:37:23.720
you've already been exposed to those teachings so and then you know, and I mean it is the case for everyone they anyone would have access to those teachings after the 27th.

553
00:37:24.400 --> 00:37:33.000
And it's just that most people are so focused on the meetings by then, and what it is that they're learning and applying.

554
00:37:33.400 --> 00:37:41.200
That they're not going to want to go into and watch a whole other course in addition to all of that.

555
00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:54.280
they're just going to be focusing on that drinking from a fire hose on Saturday and Sunday, all of those seven teachings they're probably just going to rewatch those that's why I made this other thing, even though it's available later.

556
00:37:54.720 --> 00:38:03.320
made it into its own little thing it's just kind of like sometimes you just kind of have to divide things up for people to make it more consumable for them, because otherwise.

557
00:38:03.640 --> 00:38:19.120
They just kind of get overwhelmed with Oh, you could do two courses and meet three times a week in six weeks it's just it's just too much so anyway, so that's the that's the that's the benefit that.

558
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:21.640
you've already had.

559
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:24.920
By time, as you need.

560
00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:35.840
So it's by January 14 you'd see see the videos inside the Facebook, the ones you did from the very beginning, is that what yours.

561
00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:43.040
Yes, so if someone joins by January the 14th then they get to then I read, then I add them to the Facebook group.

562
00:38:43.560 --> 00:38:49.680
You know, and then it's in there in the Facebook group, so they can go ahead and be in the Community, you know that you've been in for 12 weeks.

563
00:38:50.280 --> 00:39:02.920
They can see all of those rest teachings and start going through all of those and then I will make myself available before the program even starts before the official program even starts on the 28th.

564
00:39:03.400 --> 00:39:14.600
i'll i'll do a fireside chat with them and let me let them ask me questions and whatever it's just in it and it's no extra money it's just a benefit for for registering early instead of later.

565
00:39:15.040 --> 00:39:23.920
I wanted to give them like a bonus like an extra course because, and the whole reason this came up is, I was talking to someone and they said well Ashley that sounds great.

566
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:32.520
i'd love to join, but I was really hoping it started earlier, so that I could do it now, and so I thought well what could I do if I don't want to.

567
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:38.400
bring up I don't want to move the date of the official of the official program.

568
00:39:38.680 --> 00:39:46.960
For whatever reason i've asked the Lord if I could move it up and I just feel that January 28 and 29 was the dates that he'd set aside i'm like okay.

569
00:39:47.400 --> 00:39:59.960
So I won't move those and I felt him on those dates, so I thought well i'll do a basically a DIY course where they could take themselves through another additional rest course.

570
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:05.280
learn whatever it is that they want to learn on their own about REST and then even throw in a

571
00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:10.400
night where they could ask me questions. It's just a bonus for registering early and it gives

572
00:40:10.400 --> 00:40:15.680
people an opportunity that want to start early to strike while the iron's hot, but it's no extra

573
00:40:15.680 --> 00:40:19.920
money. So it just means that they have to pay earlier instead of later in order to get the

574
00:40:19.920 --> 00:40:29.200
benefit, but no extra money. So are those videos shorter than the REST content? I didn't think

575
00:40:29.200 --> 00:40:35.040
they were, but they are. They're like, some of them are an hour, but I noticed that a lot of

576
00:40:35.040 --> 00:40:42.880
them are like 30 minutes or something like that, but they are the original teachings that transformed

577
00:40:43.840 --> 00:40:52.720
groups of people. Like I don't know how many people, I think 25 people went through my REST

578
00:40:52.720 --> 00:40:58.960
intensive with not at the same time, but over time through those teachings, that's what they used.

579
00:40:59.920 --> 00:41:06.160
And so, but no, they're not as long. When I did the conference, I had been teaching

580
00:41:06.160 --> 00:41:11.040
on REST for a year by then. So I had even more that could flesh out the teaching

581
00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:20.160
and to just really be extra thorough about the concepts. And I even added more

582
00:41:20.160 --> 00:41:25.920
on like the things about the power of intention or goals, dreams, and promises. That is not in

583
00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:30.720
the original teaching, but in the original teaching, I do talk a lot more about business.

584
00:41:31.680 --> 00:41:38.720
I talk about, I don't know. I don't know what I said, like how to make business decisions maybe,

585
00:41:38.720 --> 00:41:45.040
or I think I have several things. In fact, I even thought about mentioning to like

586
00:41:45.600 --> 00:41:51.200
writing them out on the, on the website. What is all in them? Oh, wow. That's weird.

587
00:41:53.920 --> 00:42:07.120
It doesn't let me, that is so strange. It's not letting me see the guides for,

588
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:16.400
for the REST intensive. That is so strange. Anyway. If I remember right, they were gone

589
00:42:17.120 --> 00:42:23.920
after a certain point. They were gone. Well, I don't remember exactly, but it seems like

590
00:42:24.560 --> 00:42:32.560
I saw them there and like I listened to the one that I did. And then after that, I couldn't see

591
00:42:32.560 --> 00:42:43.760
them. Well, they, here I'm looking at it right now. No, I know for sure that they're there unless

592
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:48.320
we're talking about two different things. So, okay, here it is. Here's guides. I don't know

593
00:42:48.320 --> 00:42:56.080
why it's not showing up online. I mean, on, on the, can you see me by the way? Yeah. Okay. Cause

594
00:42:56.080 --> 00:43:02.160
I can't see you now that I'm pulling up my other window. Okay. So the session one is love affair,

595
00:43:02.160 --> 00:43:09.200
session two is rest, how to receive session three is how to release session four is how to believe

596
00:43:09.920 --> 00:43:16.160
session five is how to decide. And then session six, one with God session, seven, two trees,

597
00:43:16.160 --> 00:43:20.400
session eight, three realms, you know, the ones you're familiar with. And then session nine is

598
00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:26.800
business forming a business in rest. Session 10 is business and how to approach goals.

599
00:43:27.520 --> 00:43:33.840
Session 11 is business and how to operate in business. Um, session 12 is how to attract

600
00:43:33.840 --> 00:43:40.000
clients in business and session 13 is how to lead in business. In other words, business leadership.

601
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:49.200
So those, those that's the course, but underneath that are 44 bonus teachings, some of which,

602
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:55.120
and that may be what you're talking about. Um, I mean, there are all kinds of things like

603
00:43:55.120 --> 00:44:00.000
faith for unfulfilled promises or the difference between sons of God and daughters of God, or

604
00:44:00.560 --> 00:44:07.760
what do personality tests do us tell us or how to process grief. But then in addition to those are

605
00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:18.640
all of the ones that I, uh, that I made when, um, uh, that I made when you were, uh, uh, during

606
00:44:19.520 --> 00:44:24.800
y'all's rest intensive. And I was answering questions. I just answered questions and then

607
00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:30.000
I called them and then I did, and those were teachings and I just added them to the guides.

608
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:36.560
So in other words, there's 13 sessions of my original rest course. And then in addition to

609
00:44:36.560 --> 00:44:45.440
that, there's 44 bonus teachings on a variety of things, half of which actually were filmed.

610
00:44:46.320 --> 00:44:53.120
And, um, during y'all's rest intensive and answers to questions that were asked and you already have

611
00:44:53.120 --> 00:44:59.200
lifetime access to those. Cause I also duplicated them and put them on the rest intensive members

612
00:44:59.200 --> 00:44:59.760
page.

613
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.640
So you already have access to those.

614
00:45:02.640 --> 00:45:07.120
So anyway, so in, like I said, all of this year,

615
00:45:07.120 --> 00:45:10.040
if you were to join on January 27th, you know,

616
00:45:10.040 --> 00:45:12.720
or January 26th, whatever,

617
00:45:12.720 --> 00:45:14.520
you'd have access to all of this.

618
00:45:14.520 --> 00:45:16.600
I just am offering this, you know,

619
00:45:16.600 --> 00:45:17.520
and letting people know

620
00:45:17.520 --> 00:45:19.480
who've never been in the Facebook group before that,

621
00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:22.600
hey, there's a whole bonus course in there

622
00:45:22.600 --> 00:45:25.720
that if they want to jump in and do that now,

623
00:45:25.720 --> 00:45:27.600
I'll answer questions and everything,

624
00:45:27.600 --> 00:45:29.840
and they get to get started before the official course,

625
00:45:29.840 --> 00:45:32.040
even starts with a totally different

626
00:45:33.720 --> 00:45:38.720
eight, nine hour conference group of sessions.

627
00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:42.200
So I just want to make sure that you know,

628
00:45:42.200 --> 00:45:45.160
and that it's very clear that there's no,

629
00:45:45.160 --> 00:45:50.160
you don't get anything more by joining earlier,

630
00:45:50.200 --> 00:45:52.680
and it, but it also doesn't cost you anything more

631
00:45:52.680 --> 00:45:54.440
to join earlier.

632
00:45:54.440 --> 00:45:59.320
It just means you pay earlier in order to have access,

633
00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:01.960
you know, before instead of later.

634
00:46:01.960 --> 00:46:04.360
So that's the only difference.

635
00:46:04.360 --> 00:46:07.000
You're giving us a discount anyway.

636
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:08.360
Well, yes, yes, y'all.

637
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:11.640
Yeah, I think it's what, I don't remember.

638
00:46:13.160 --> 00:46:15.320
Is it 500 or 600?

639
00:46:15.320 --> 00:46:16.440
How much are you charging?

640
00:46:16.440 --> 00:46:18.800
500 and something, I think.

641
00:46:18.800 --> 00:46:19.640
Oh, okay.

642
00:46:19.640 --> 00:46:20.840
Is it, oh, 525.

643
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:21.680
That's what it is.

644
00:46:21.680 --> 00:46:25.880
So it's almost half, not quite half, but almost half.

645
00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:28.200
Yeah, yeah.

646
00:46:29.080 --> 00:46:31.280
Who has signed up so far?

647
00:46:31.280 --> 00:46:35.760
No one, but I've had a lot of conversations for new people.

648
00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:40.760
And then some of the, I know of multiple,

649
00:46:41.000 --> 00:46:44.120
well, I'm trying to think of how to describe this.

650
00:46:44.120 --> 00:46:45.760
No one's committed to anything,

651
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:48.200
but there have been people who are talking

652
00:46:48.200 --> 00:46:50.320
and having been in the old rest intensive,

653
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:53.280
meaning like just this past one, you know,

654
00:46:53.280 --> 00:46:56.080
talking about the same thing as you,

655
00:46:56.080 --> 00:47:00.240
like, well, they're thinking about joining,

656
00:47:00.240 --> 00:47:03.480
but they're not sure if that's a time commitment

657
00:47:03.480 --> 00:47:05.640
that they want to make with other things

658
00:47:05.640 --> 00:47:07.720
that they've got going on.

659
00:47:07.720 --> 00:47:11.400
So, but they have, some of them have family or friends

660
00:47:11.400 --> 00:47:13.160
that they're wanting to refer,

661
00:47:13.160 --> 00:47:15.600
and they're just not sure whether or not

662
00:47:15.600 --> 00:47:16.520
they're gonna join them.

663
00:47:16.520 --> 00:47:17.840
So that's all I know.

664
00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:21.040
No one has, no one signed up, no one's committed.

665
00:47:22.040 --> 00:47:25.440
I have a new person that was referred

666
00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:27.640
by someone not in the group,

667
00:47:27.640 --> 00:47:29.880
but someone that I've mentored on the side.

668
00:47:29.880 --> 00:47:34.880
And so she might be joining soon, but anyway.

669
00:47:35.520 --> 00:47:38.480
So no one's joined yet, but yeah, it's early.

670
00:47:38.480 --> 00:47:40.480
Yeah, yeah.

671
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:43.720
So I was gonna say something, but I just forgot.

672
00:47:46.360 --> 00:47:50.280
Oh, well, as my dad would say, must not be important.

673
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:52.920
I know, my dad would say the same thing.

674
00:47:52.920 --> 00:47:53.840
Must not be important.

675
00:47:53.840 --> 00:47:56.320
I learned though, that is not always true, dad.

676
00:47:56.320 --> 00:47:57.400
That is not always true.

677
00:47:57.400 --> 00:47:59.680
Sometimes you forget very important things.

678
00:47:59.680 --> 00:48:02.000
I like to always tease my dad about that.

679
00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:03.960
Sometimes it's actually not true, dad.

680
00:48:05.080 --> 00:48:07.680
Well, I know what I was gonna tell you.

681
00:48:07.680 --> 00:48:10.640
That session with Ed was really good.

682
00:48:10.640 --> 00:48:11.480
Really?

683
00:48:11.480 --> 00:48:13.280
I'm so glad it was helpful.

684
00:48:13.280 --> 00:48:15.040
Yeah, that was so helpful.

685
00:48:15.040 --> 00:48:17.280
And I'm gonna go back and listen to it again.

686
00:48:17.280 --> 00:48:18.200
Oh, good.

687
00:48:18.200 --> 00:48:21.040
Yeah, very helpful and encouraging.

688
00:48:21.040 --> 00:48:24.240
I'm so glad, so very glad.

689
00:48:24.240 --> 00:48:25.080
Yeah.

690
00:48:25.080 --> 00:48:26.920
You guys are a good match, good match.

691
00:48:26.920 --> 00:48:27.880
Thank you.

692
00:48:27.880 --> 00:48:29.280
We think so.

693
00:48:29.280 --> 00:48:31.400
Yeah, it's been really fun

694
00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:33.760
and it's gonna continue to be a fun adventure

695
00:48:33.760 --> 00:48:36.680
to see what the Lord does

696
00:48:36.680 --> 00:48:40.840
and how he has us just compliment one another.

697
00:48:40.840 --> 00:48:43.200
Just what our spirits carry

698
00:48:43.200 --> 00:48:46.560
and how we, our hearts for other people.

699
00:48:46.560 --> 00:48:48.200
We have similar hearts for other people,

700
00:48:48.200 --> 00:48:50.360
but we express it differently.

701
00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:52.800
He expresses it as like a very,

702
00:48:53.760 --> 00:48:56.000
he expresses his care for other people

703
00:48:56.000 --> 00:48:57.960
through like the heart of a father.

704
00:48:57.960 --> 00:48:59.920
And then me, I do it through,

705
00:48:59.920 --> 00:49:01.040
kind of like the heart of a mother,

706
00:49:01.040 --> 00:49:05.440
very nurturing, trying to make a safe place, you know?

707
00:49:05.440 --> 00:49:10.080
And he does it with providing a lot of like security

708
00:49:10.080 --> 00:49:14.120
and like, and safety and everything.

709
00:49:14.120 --> 00:49:15.960
And so anyway, and then he does,

710
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:17.680
he has a lot of his experiences

711
00:49:17.680 --> 00:49:19.320
in inner healing and deliverance.

712
00:49:19.320 --> 00:49:22.160
And a lot of my experiences in like helping people

713
00:49:22.160 --> 00:49:26.680
like make those feel safe enough to be vulnerable

714
00:49:26.680 --> 00:49:28.640
with the Lord and make really hard decisions

715
00:49:28.640 --> 00:49:30.840
and whatever to do it with intentionality.

716
00:49:31.760 --> 00:49:35.520
And anyway, so, but yeah,

717
00:49:35.520 --> 00:49:39.000
so it's fun to get to work together and operate together.

718
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:41.120
And we're just still discovering what that looks like.

719
00:49:41.120 --> 00:49:44.160
But I know he was, he enjoyed,

720
00:49:44.160 --> 00:49:47.160
he was greatly encouraged by all of the benefit

721
00:49:47.160 --> 00:49:48.960
that people seem to express that they got

722
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:50.320
when during-

723
00:49:50.320 --> 00:49:52.800
Yeah, you can tell him that I, that was so good.

724
00:49:52.800 --> 00:49:53.640
Yeah.

725
00:49:53.640 --> 00:49:54.480
I'm so glad.

726
00:49:54.480 --> 00:49:56.920
I'm really glad that that was so helpful.

727
00:49:56.920 --> 00:49:59.600
Well, he enjoyed getting to meet with you.

728
00:49:59.600 --> 00:50:00.440
Well, thank you.

729
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:02.160
That was, yeah, it was very helpful.

730
00:50:02.360 --> 00:50:03.080
Good.

731
00:50:03.520 --> 00:50:07.200
Well, I know we're probably in the middle of your work day, but is there anything

732
00:50:07.200 --> 00:50:12.280
else that you, that you need, that you, you know, that you have questions

733
00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:15.240
about that, I don't know, just whatever.

734
00:50:15.480 --> 00:50:20.160
Well, Ashley, right at the moment, um, you're always just so easy.

735
00:50:20.160 --> 00:50:24.000
You've got such a long history of walk with the Lord that I've

736
00:50:24.000 --> 00:50:25.160
noticed when I get on with you.

737
00:50:25.160 --> 00:50:27.280
You're like, well, I don't have any questions.

738
00:50:28.560 --> 00:50:29.280
Amazing.

739
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:34.800
Well, you know how to walk me.

740
00:50:35.040 --> 00:50:39.160
I've, I would have been in this, um, a bunch of years ago.

741
00:50:39.160 --> 00:50:43.840
I mean, God, I mean, it was encouraged, encouraging to hear Ed say, you know,

742
00:50:43.840 --> 00:50:52.200
you seem stable while I didn't use to be very stable, look what the Lord has done.

743
00:50:56.320 --> 00:50:58.520
She would have done it like 20 years ago though.

744
00:50:58.560 --> 00:51:03.880
So I had to have longer to, you know, minister, you know, all that,

745
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:06.440
but, you know, his timing is good.

746
00:51:06.680 --> 00:51:07.360
Yeah.

747
00:51:07.520 --> 00:51:07.840
Yeah.

748
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:08.160
I know.

749
00:51:08.160 --> 00:51:12.200
That's one of the things I kind of, that I struggled with, you know, when I first

750
00:51:12.200 --> 00:51:17.400
learned about, about, um, about rest or really other things as well.

751
00:51:17.400 --> 00:51:22.560
I remember when I first started learning about the demonic, meaning like how

752
00:51:22.560 --> 00:51:28.200
active that it is and how influential it is and deliverance and all of that.

753
00:51:28.560 --> 00:51:31.600
I remember asking my mom one time.

754
00:51:32.120 --> 00:51:33.360
I was very upset.

755
00:51:33.400 --> 00:51:37.160
Now I tried to, I was very kind about it, but inside I was very upset and I'm,

756
00:51:37.240 --> 00:51:41.920
and I wasn't, I was an adult and I said, mom, why didn't you tell me?

757
00:51:42.360 --> 00:51:46.160
Why didn't I know that this is how life is, that this

758
00:51:46.160 --> 00:51:48.240
is spiritually what's going on.

759
00:51:48.560 --> 00:51:50.920
And so she just, she explained, she's like, well, sweetheart,

760
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:51.960
she said multiple reasons.

761
00:51:51.960 --> 00:51:56.960
She said, well, one, you know, you're, you're, you were a kid, you

762
00:51:56.960 --> 00:52:00.800
know, when you were in my house, there were things that you didn't, you

763
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:05.600
didn't need to, um, always have to, you know, be focused on like all the

764
00:52:05.600 --> 00:52:09.520
negative or whatever we wanted you to put to, we wanted you to talk to you

765
00:52:09.520 --> 00:52:12.920
about like the positive things and the truth of God and the whatever she said.

766
00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:18.040
And also she said, there's a tendency of people to just, to start

767
00:52:18.040 --> 00:52:19.840
seeing a devil under every rock.

768
00:52:19.880 --> 00:52:23.960
In other words, that, that the demonic is the problem and the, and

769
00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:26.200
the cause of everything, you know?

770
00:52:26.480 --> 00:52:30.760
And in basically just giving Satan just too much glory anyway.

771
00:52:31.440 --> 00:52:34.920
So I remember like that as a moment, you know, in my life or whatever,

772
00:52:34.920 --> 00:52:39.960
where I just remember thinking, why didn't I know, you know, that would

773
00:52:39.960 --> 00:52:44.920
have helped if I'd understood that there was that things that were going on in

774
00:52:44.920 --> 00:52:50.480
my life were more than just me, that it was me being affected by the spiritual

775
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:54.600
realm, it was me being in something bigger than myself and my physical

776
00:52:54.640 --> 00:52:59.080
circumstances that sometimes when you're being attacked, it's not the

777
00:52:59.080 --> 00:53:03.040
person it's what's behind the person that's coming out to, you know, just

778
00:53:03.040 --> 00:53:03.840
stuff like that.

779
00:53:03.840 --> 00:53:07.640
I'm like, how much more could my life have felt more free?

780
00:53:07.640 --> 00:53:12.640
You know, if I know, or when I learned about rest, I'm like, why Lord, have

781
00:53:12.640 --> 00:53:18.360
I lived my life so long in such stress and such agony, such torment and such

782
00:53:18.360 --> 00:53:20.440
disappointment, you know?

783
00:53:20.920 --> 00:53:23.000
And then, um, why do it?

784
00:53:23.000 --> 00:53:27.000
Why did I have to learn it as late, you know, as at the time that I did.

785
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:29.640
And then there are other people who are older than me and they're like, well,

786
00:53:29.840 --> 00:53:31.880
you, I wish I'd gotten to learn it early.

787
00:53:31.880 --> 00:53:40.320
Like you, everything's relative, but anyway, I understand.

788
00:53:40.320 --> 00:53:42.920
So, but I'm really excited for you.

789
00:53:42.920 --> 00:53:48.400
Um, I really am hoping that, um, your life continues to unfold and

790
00:53:48.400 --> 00:53:50.400
becomes even more free.

791
00:53:50.400 --> 00:53:56.360
Um, I'm really hoping for, um, relationships for you, you know, um,

792
00:53:56.360 --> 00:54:01.560
connection and belonging and, um, and just, I don't know the word I keep

793
00:54:01.720 --> 00:54:06.320
seeing and hearing is just connect, not connect like acquaintances or

794
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:08.720
whatever, but just like real true connection, you know, where it's

795
00:54:08.720 --> 00:54:10.800
important and it's life giving.

796
00:54:11.480 --> 00:54:17.200
And, um, I don't know, there's a bit of, um, uh, not dependency.

797
00:54:17.240 --> 00:54:22.640
What's the word, um, a bit of, you know, mutual contribution pouring

798
00:54:22.640 --> 00:54:29.600
into and, um, each other enrichment, you know, that you, of you making

799
00:54:29.600 --> 00:54:33.120
another people's lives and then making in you were, like I said, that

800
00:54:33.120 --> 00:54:36.560
it's very life giving, and then it gives you a bit of a network, a bit

801
00:54:36.560 --> 00:54:40.840
of a support and, um, so anyway, that's what, cause you always keep a

802
00:54:40.840 --> 00:54:44.920
really good attitude about that and whatever, but I really would.

803
00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:46.600
You know, wish that for you.

804
00:54:46.640 --> 00:54:50.120
I mean, like outside of work, you know, cause you have it at

805
00:54:50.120 --> 00:54:55.640
works and so that's great, you know, but P yeah, you did, you know,

806
00:54:55.640 --> 00:55:00.080
but, and I know what that's like to not have connection and relationship.

807
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.880
relationship. This is the most I've ever had in my life. You know, this, the past few years

808
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:09.200
since I learned about rest, actually, that is when things opened up for me. In fact,

809
00:55:09.200 --> 00:55:13.440
I have a couple of teachings on how to make friends in rest, because some of the people

810
00:55:13.440 --> 00:55:17.880
that have come into the rest intensive over the years have really struggled in making

811
00:55:17.880 --> 00:55:24.160
friends and in their lives. And I'm not saying you have, my point is they were lonely. They

812
00:55:24.160 --> 00:55:31.720
felt isolated from connection. And so they were wondering, how do you actually start

813
00:55:31.720 --> 00:55:39.400
making connection with other people to build a network of life-giving enrichment, you know,

814
00:55:39.400 --> 00:55:44.160
between people. So anyway, it's a very real thing. Anyway, I pray that for you and desire

815
00:55:44.160 --> 00:55:45.160
that.

816
00:55:45.160 --> 00:55:50.800
Well, thank you. Yeah. That is really my heart's desire. Yeah.

817
00:55:50.800 --> 00:55:58.680
Cause you have so much to give and, um, I hope that, you know, pray that the Lord will

818
00:55:58.680 --> 00:56:09.280
guide you to the people that, that value what it is that is in you. Um, because it's very,

819
00:56:09.280 --> 00:56:17.600
it's very weighty. It's very solid, very, um, uh, it's, uh, I keep, I know I keep using

820
00:56:17.600 --> 00:56:21.640
the word life-giving, but there's another word there it's eternal. It's spirit. It's,

821
00:56:21.640 --> 00:56:28.620
um, it's significant. It's something that can actually change them. Um, it matters,

822
00:56:28.620 --> 00:56:33.160
you know, it, it has value. That's the word I'm looking for. It has value. It has significance

823
00:56:33.160 --> 00:56:40.240
and, um, and, uh, like beyond the fact that, well, we're all valuable. No, it's like, there's

824
00:56:40.240 --> 00:56:43.880
a measure of, you know, you're carrying a measure of heaven and you're actually willing

825
00:56:43.880 --> 00:56:51.600
to pour that out. So they get to benefit from something that's valuable. Um, and, uh,

826
00:56:51.600 --> 00:56:57.080
it's almost like having a friend that's very wealthy. You get to benefit as a result. They'll

827
00:56:57.080 --> 00:57:00.240
take you out to dinner and pay for things and let you stay at their house while they're

828
00:57:00.240 --> 00:57:05.440
at it down and use your pool, lose their pool and whatever. You're that kind of friend.

829
00:57:05.440 --> 00:57:09.880
You're the friend, you're the wealthy friend that people, other people get to benefit from,

830
00:57:10.720 --> 00:57:15.400
because what you have is substantial, it's valuable and significant. So anyway, um, you

831
00:57:15.400 --> 00:57:19.440
know, and I've actually just want to pray about it right now, you know, Lord, we, we,

832
00:57:19.440 --> 00:57:25.240
um, I, I come into agreement, Lord with Chris and, um, and thank you for everything that

833
00:57:25.240 --> 00:57:31.800
you've poured into her life. How much that you have, um, uh, how much that you have poured

834
00:57:31.800 --> 00:57:40.280
into her, enriched her with, um, created her with Lord, um, knitted her together with,

835
00:57:40.280 --> 00:57:45.200
and um, what it is that she has to be able to give to others. And we ask that you would

836
00:57:45.200 --> 00:57:51.800
bring the people to her and attract people to her that can recognize value, appreciate

837
00:57:51.800 --> 00:57:58.320
and receive that, um, for what it is that she would be treated with kindness and dignity,

838
00:57:58.320 --> 00:58:03.000
respect and honor, um, for what it is that she carries, that she would be re that what

839
00:58:03.000 --> 00:58:09.320
it is that she pours out of herself would be received. Um, again, Lord, that she would

840
00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:14.280
be honored in what it is that she is offering of herself that she, that this last half her

841
00:58:14.280 --> 00:58:19.800
life will be more blessed, much more blessed, doubly blessed, like, like I Job, then, um,

842
00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:23.720
her, the previous, um, half of her life Lord in Jesus's name.

843
00:58:24.040 --> 00:58:31.720
Amen. Thank you, Ashley. Thank you. Yeah. Always get to always good to get to see you.

844
00:58:32.520 --> 00:58:38.440
I'm glad it worked out for us to fit it in. Yeah, I am too. Cause I wasn't sure about that. And I,

845
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:45.000
um, about the transformation session. So it was good that you asked. Yeah. Yes. I'm sorry. Maybe

846
00:58:45.000 --> 00:58:49.640
I announced it when you were, uh, when you weren't on a call or something like you weren't able to

847
00:58:49.640 --> 00:58:54.600
make it. So I apologize. I didn't realize that it meant that you'd missed the information. Um,

848
00:58:54.600 --> 00:58:59.320
but what I ended up doing is because of the holidays, I ended up basically kind of like,

849
00:58:59.320 --> 00:59:04.360
it's almost like extending the program for a week by allowing everyone to do a transformation

850
00:59:04.360 --> 00:59:09.400
afterwards, which gives me a touch point. You know, it gives us a touch point with each other

851
00:59:09.400 --> 00:59:13.400
after the program's even done. I was hoping that would be helpful for everyone. So

852
00:59:13.880 --> 00:59:19.000
yeah. Well, thank you. You're welcome. And it's really good to see you.

853
00:59:20.120 --> 00:59:27.480
Yeah. Good to see you too. Take care. Bye-bye.
