- 0:03Hey guys, has anyone seen any grass around here?
- 0:07I'm a little hungry. Hey, Barbara, how's it going?
- 0:13Shirley, what are you doing out in the middle of nowhere when
- 0:18you don't have a shepherd like us anyways?
- 0:21Nowhere. What's up?
- 0:26Hey. You're new around here.
- 0:29Have you seen any grass? Yeah, we're starved.
- 0:32I know where the grass is green and the wolves are mean.
- 0:36What did you say? I know where the grass is green.
- 0:41No, that last part about the wolves are mean.
- 0:45I'd said the. Bowls are.
- 0:47Clean. I know where there is so much
- 0:50grass that they serve it in bowls.
- 0:53I've never eaten out of a bowl before.
- 0:57Neither have I. What's a bowl?
- 1:00You don't know what a bowl is. No.
- 1:03It's not important. The important thing is that they
- 1:06have plenty of green grass and plenty of beer to drink.
- 1:10Beer to drink? Oh no, that doesn't sound good.
- 1:15Drinking beer is bad for us. Even we should know that.
- 1:19I didn't say beer. Yes, you did.
- 1:22You said plenty of beer to drink.
- 1:24I said plenty of deer. Plenty of deer to drink.
- 1:30You can't drink deer. I said plenty of deer drinking
- 1:36the Stillwater. Even the deer drink it.
- 1:39Wow, maybe you'll see Bambi. Silly sheep.
- 1:43Everybody knows Bambi is just a cartoon.
- 1:47You 2 need a shepherd, don't you?
- 1:49Yes, do. You know any?
- 1:52Do I know any? Shepherds.
- 1:54I know a bunch of them. Buddha, Muhammad, Satan, I know
- 2:00them all. Isn't Satan bad?
- 2:03Yeah, he's bad. Did I say Satan?
- 2:07Yes. I meant to say waiting.
- 2:10Oh. Waiting.
- 2:13Yeah, I'm waiting for an answer from you. 2 You see, I represent
- 2:21Jesus to the world, you know, sharing the good news that God
- 2:25loves everyone and he has some green grass for you.
- 2:30So are you coming or not? My, that's the big nose you
- 2:35have. There.
- 2:36The better to smell you with, I mean the better to smell with.
- 2:41That's why I know where the green grass is.
- 2:44I can smell it a mile away. My those are very big tea.
- 2:49The better they eat you with, I mean, the better to eat with you
- 2:55the grass if you're coming, that is no pressure.
- 2:59What do you take us for? A couple of dumb sheep?
- 3:04Of course we're coming. We're starved.
- 3:07Show us the way. Sheep with no shepherd.
- 3:12That's what I call dinner. Jesus calls himself the Good
- 3:26Shepherd, and he calls those who have received him as their Lord
- 3:30and Savior his sheep. Or if you're a kid, he calls you
- 3:34his Lambs. Jesus loves his sheep and lambs,
- 3:39and He wants to take good care of us, but we have to learn His
- 3:42word, listen to His voice that's inside of us, and obey His
- 3:46warnings. Jesus warns us in Matthew 715 to
- 3:51beware of false prophets or people who try to lead us to do
- 3:55something that could hurt us. He said that they would disguise
- 3:58themselves as harmless sheep, but are really vicious like
- 4:03wolves. Did you know that sheep
- 4:05recognize their shepherd's voice and they'll only follow their
- 4:09shepherd, not a stranger? When we learn God's Word, we
- 4:13learn to follow Jesus and obey His voice that's inside of us
- 4:17and that will keep us safe from following wolves in sheeps
- 4:21clothing. Special thanks to Annika and
- 4:24Bellapowski. This Acme dog costume will fool
- 4:35these dumb sheep. They'll never know it's really
- 4:37me. The devil.
- 4:40Here's sheep. Come here.
- 4:42Come to me. I'm your new shepherd.
- 4:45Here's sheep. You're not Ralph Bad.
- 4:48Where's Ralph? Ralph quit.
- 4:51I'm the new shepherd. Now hush up and.
- 4:54Get over here. You're not the Shepherd.
- 4:57You're the devil. Help Ralph.
- 4:59It's the devil. It's the devil.
- 5:02Hey, are you messing with my sheep?
- 5:04These are my sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I
- 5:08know them, and they follow me. John 1027.
- 5:11What's? That a Bible verse.
- 5:13Yes, Jesus is Jehovah Rohi, our Good Shepherd.
- 5:17Well go quote your Bible verse somewhere else.
- 5:20These are my sheep. I was here first.
- 5:23My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
- 5:30John, 1027. Oh, I bet that.
- 5:36Hurt, I tried to tell him. Well, since that dog costume
- 5:44didn't work, I'm going to try dressing up like a shepherd ass.
- 5:48I found this Bo Peep costume on acme.com, maybe this will work.
- 5:54Back. Yoohoo.
- 5:57Here, woolly, comfortable. Peep.
- 6:01Where are you? Little sheep.
- 6:05Hush up, Lamsey, if you know what's good for you.
- 6:08My names not Lamsey. It's Woolly Help.
- 6:11It's the devil. It's the devil.
- 6:14What's going on over? Here.
- 6:17What are you doing with my? Sheep, you must be mistaken.
- 6:21These are my. Sheep.
- 6:22No, Jesus. Is Jehovah Rohi?
- 6:26Our Good Shepherd, my sheep, hear my voice.
- 6:31And I know them and they. Follow me, John, 1027.
- 6:37Listen, I don't want to hear your Bible verse.
- 6:40These are my sheep. Now scram, little girl.
- 6:43My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
- 6:49John, 1027. No.
- 6:54Oh. I bet he has a.
- 6:56Headache. I tried to tell.
- 6:59Him. Oh, woolly you.
- 7:01Heard my voice. I've been looking all over for
- 7:05you. This new and improved Acme dog
- 7:14costume is guaranteed to fool sheep, dogs and shepherdesses.
- 7:20Nice sheep, nice sheep, nice tasting sheep.
- 7:25Did you say nice tasting? Hey, you're not Sam.
- 7:29Yes I am. Look at my ears.
- 7:32Well, you've got ears like Sam. That voice.
- 7:37I'm a real dog. Roof, Roof.
- 7:39I know Sam's voice. Who are you really?
- 7:43It doesn't matter now, I've got you and I'm going to eat you.
- 7:47Help Sam. It's the devil.
- 7:50It's the devil. What are you doing with my
- 7:53sheep? Your sheep.
- 7:55I beg your pardon, This is my sheep.
- 7:59No, Jesus is Jehovah Rohi, our Good Shepherd.
- 8:03My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
- 8:07John, 1027. Why does everyone have to quote
- 8:11the Bible? Look dog, you've obviously made
- 8:14a mistake. Why don't you go find a fire
- 8:17hydrant somewhere and leave me to my meal?
- 8:20I mean lamb. I'm a sheep.
- 8:22Whatever. My sheep hear my voice, and I
- 8:27know them, and they follow me. John, 1027.
- 8:43I tried to tell him. That devil just never learns.
- 8:52So what are we going to do today?
- 8:53Pain. Same thing we always do, sneaky
- 8:57try to take over the world. How are we going to do that,
- 9:00boss? Jesus is walking around
- 9:02preaching and healing the sick, cleansing lepers, raising the
- 9:05dead and casting out devils. That's the part I hate the most
- 9:09pain, the casting out devils. What do you hate the most?
- 9:12Pain. I hate it all.
- 9:15Jesus must be stopped before I can take over the world.
- 9:19Well, he can only talk to so many people.
- 9:22Sneaky, I have a plan. You and I will scatter the
- 9:26people like sheep and run them ragged with sickness.
- 9:30And problems. And disease.
- 9:33And problems. And even death.
- 9:36What about problems? Pain.
- 9:38What do you think? Sickness and disease are sneaky.
- 9:41They're all problems. I was thinking more like getting
- 9:43gum stuck in the armpits. Now that's a problem.
- 9:46Sometimes sneaky. I want to grab you and all
- 9:51right, we'll put gum in their armpits.
- 9:54Oh goody goody, you just wait pain.
- 9:57You'll see what a good idea it is.
- 9:59I had gum in the armpit once, sort now that was a problem.
- 10:03I'm sure it was the low point of your life.
- 10:05Sneaky. Now that's enough about gum in
- 10:08the armpits. Let's figure out a way to
- 10:11scatter the people. Sneaky.
- 10:16Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
- 10:19I think so. Pain.
- 10:20But how many licks does it take to get to the center of a
- 10:22Tootsie pop? I would hit you, but I'm afraid
- 10:26I'd knock something looser. Come on, sneaky.
- 10:29Let's scatter the sheep and create chaos.
- 10:32Sickness, scatter. Disease, scatter.
- 10:38Death. Scatter.
- 10:41Come in the armpit. Scatter.
- 10:45Disciples come to me. The people are scattered
- 10:48everywhere. I need laborers, men and women,
- 10:52boys and girls that can help me reach all the people.
- 10:56I give you power over all, the power of the enemy.
- 10:59You go heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and
- 11:03cast out devils so that people will know that God is good and
- 11:06he loves them. Don't take it so hard, boss.
- 11:15How were we supposed to know that Jesus would anoint his
- 11:18disciples to do the same things he did?
- 11:20I don't want to think about it today.
- 11:22Sneaky. Tomorrow is another day.
- 11:25What are we going to do tomorrow, boss?
- 11:27Same thing we always do, sneaky try to take over the world.
- 11:38The Lord is my babysitter. I shall not want.
- 11:42No, that's not good. The Lord is my grandpa.
- 11:47I shall not want, No. Hidey ho David, what you doing?
- 11:52Just shepherding all you little cotton swabs.
- 11:55The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
- 11:58I like it. Are you busy, David?
- 12:01Wooly, can't you see I'm trying to write a song?
- 12:04You're always writing songs. What's this one called?
- 12:08#23. Song 23 How many songs are you
- 12:13going to write? I don't know, maybe 150?
- 12:17You should write a really long song sometime just to be funny.
- 12:22Sure. OK, I'll do that.
- 12:24Did you need something wooly? Yes, I'm so sorry to bother you,
- 12:27but I'm getting thirsty. So go.
- 12:30Get a drink by myself. The stream of water is right
- 12:33there. But what if I fall in?
- 12:35It's not a raging river, it's a stream.
- 12:38The water is perfectly still. Look.
- 12:42Lead me please. Hey, I just thought of a new
- 12:46line for my song. Give me a second.
- 12:49He leadeth to me beside the still waters.
- 12:52Well, there's one more small problem.
- 12:56Some bear just grabbed my best friend's sweaty.
- 12:59Why didn't you say so sooner? 'Cause it just happened.
- 13:02Wait here, I'll be right back. Be careful, it's a real bear.
- 13:07Mr. Bear that sheep down or I'll cut your head off.
- 13:11You're just a kid and you don't even have a sword.
- 13:15All you have is a slingshot. Way to go, David.
- 13:21Are you going to cut off his head now?
- 13:23I'll. Have to ask my dad if I can use
- 13:25his knife. Wow, you must practice with your
- 13:28slingshot a bunch. Yeah, it's fun.
- 13:30Besides, who knows, I might have to kill a giant Philistine
- 13:34someday. What are you going to be when
- 13:35you grow up, David? A rock star.
- 13:38No, I'm going to be king. So what are you doing wasting
- 13:43your time here with us, Your Highness?
- 13:46I'm not wasting my time. I'm learning to be a leader.
- 13:50I lead you cotton swabs to still waters.
- 13:52I make you lie down in green pastures.
- 13:54Oh, let me write that down. He maketh me lie down in green
- 14:00pastures. Where was I?
- 14:02Oh, yeah. I make sure you're all fed and
- 14:04comfortable when the enemy attacks.
- 14:06I protect you. See, I'm learning to be king
- 14:09over Israel by being your king. You're just taking life one step
- 14:14at a time, huh? Yeah, God is leading me like I
- 14:17lead you. God leads US one step at a time,
- 14:20and I lead you one step at a time.
- 14:22Speaking of leading, I could still use a drink of that
- 14:26Stillwater you mentioned earlier.
- 14:28Oh, sorry, I forgot. Come on.
- 14:32Maybe after you're done writing your song, you could play BLOB
- 14:35with. Me BLOB, what's that?
- 14:37It's a. Game I play when I'm in the
- 14:39valley and a cloud passes overhead.
- 14:42It makes a shadow. I call the BLOB.
- 14:46If the shadow hits you, you're dead.
- 14:49But don't be afraid, you're not really dead.
- 14:51I know it's just pretended. Yes, finally someone gets it.
- 14:56All the other sheep are afraid to play.
- 14:59They think it's evil. Yay.
- 15:01Do I walk through the valley of the shadow of death?
- 15:03I will fear no evil. What?
- 15:06I forgot my songbook. I'll be right back.
- 15:08What about my water? If I fall in, it's going to be
- 15:13his fault. God gave David the strength and
- 15:18courage to become a brave warrior who delivered his people
- 15:22from their enemies, all in preparation for becoming the
- 15:25greatest king that ever lived. So no matter what your position
