to Believe in the Journey Podcast where I'm your host, Javita Harris, and
2:55
we are slowly wrapping up Season one of Belief in the Journey Podcast along with
3:01
my other podcast family members, the crew. So I want to start off
3:07
by saying thank you guys for being here from the very beginning and tuning in
3:13
and showing your love and support not only for me but for all of my
3:16
family members of the crew y'all. I have no idea what happened, but
3:30
we are having some technical difficulties. We were having this before we got started.
3:36
I had my brother who was gonna be my guest tonight, but we
3:40
are experiencing to technical difficulties. He's dealing with the storm and my lights over
3:47
here are starting to flicker. So if we go out, just understand that
3:52
we are just trying to do what we need to do while God is doing
3:57
his work as well. So I cannot do anything without going to God first.
4:00
So, Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for bringing us here tonight,
4:03
as you do each and every time we come before you. Let the words
4:08
of my mouth be connected to the ears that need to hear I am not
4:12
sure where you want me to go tonight, but I'm going to be obedient
4:15
to what you tell me to do. And your precious and holy name Jesus,
4:18
I pray Amen. I'm going to bring up my mentor tonight, and
4:24
I want to talk to miss Angela and let her know just how much I
4:30
appreciate the push, you know, So come on up, queen. Yeah,
4:44
I swear technology is not always as friendly as it needs to be,
4:50
but this podcast has really brought me out of my shell in so many different
4:59
ways. Because I am normally in the background pushing somebody else to be in
5:04
the forefront. Because I not only am the small one of the group of
5:12
any people I'm included with is because when you're only four eight, people tend
5:17
to overlook you. They don't really see you as being noticeable. But just
5:26
because I'm small and statue doesn't mean that I'm not going to be seen.
5:30
But I've always been in the shadow of other people and never being in the
5:32
front of what I needed to do. But being with Angela, she has
5:40
pushed me outside of my comfort zone. From meeting her when I did the
5:45
virtual monologue a Mask behind the Mask, and ever since then she has pushed
5:50
me outside of my comfort zone to do things that I would not normally do.
5:57
Even though I prayed and asked God to help me to step out side
6:00
of my comfort zone, I did not know what that entail. I was
6:06
just saying to help me step outside of my comfort zone and step into the
6:11
person that He's created me to be. And so with that being said,
6:16
I've done a lot of things that I did not know I was capable of
6:20
doing, but other people saw the potential, and I've been able to grow
6:26
in many, many different ways in many different areas. Twenty twenty, I
6:30
wrote a book due to the push of my best friend, even though I
6:34
was really stubborn about that as well. But she didn't let up. She
6:42
pushed until I did it, and from there I've written three books. From
6:47
there, I started a publishing business, and from there I've published an anthology
6:57
book and I'm working on a second one or another client, and I'm working
7:02
on to other books for myself. So it has been a journey. So
7:12
hello, Hello, if it let me on, if it let me listen,
7:25
I'm sweared. I know it's been. It's doing its own thing.
7:32
It's doing its own thing. But you were gonna make it do what it
7:41
do. But right now I want to take this time and this opportunity to
7:44
tell you just how much I appreciate you, and I thank you for pushing
7:48
me outside of my little space, in my little bubble, because I can
7:57
easily hide behind myself, but you don't let me hide, you don't let
8:01
me stay in the space where I'm comfortable, you know, and meeting you
8:07
in twenty twenty when we did the virtual monologue together, and you have been
8:18
pretty much consistent and persistent in making sure I stay on task of what you
8:26
see for me, you know, So I want to make sure that I
8:30
tell you thank you and how much I appreciate you for being the leader and
8:33
being a big sister, being a source of support, being a source of
8:39
encouragement and inspiration because there's so many things that I see by being in the
8:48
space with you, and you're encouraged not only myself but everyone that you meet.
8:56
And you're never selfish with what you give, and that's a blessing because
9:01
not always people will look for what they can gain from helping without you know,
9:09
saying I'm just helping you because I want to, and not looking for
9:13
something in return, So thank you. Well, just well, I think
9:22
I have to thank the people that I come in contact with, the people
9:28
that allow me in their space, because you know, there are billions of
9:33
people in this world, and you could have chose to occupy space with those
9:41
billions of people in this world, but yet you chose to be in a
9:46
space with me, in my circle and my realm. I thank God for
9:54
that because I'm not always been in a place where I've been that person that
10:01
cared about the next person. You know, you look at me about ten
10:07
years ago, when I was in college, I had this attitude to where
10:16
if it didn't benefit me, I didn't care, never about the next person.
10:22
Seriously that that was the actage. That's true I had, But that
10:30
allowed me to go through some things under why I have had these conversations with
10:39
people. Even with my mom at thirteen and fourteen, I used to have
10:45
these grown up conversations with her. I thought, you know, why am
10:50
I having these conversations with her? But now I see why I was having
10:54
these conversations with her because I lost my mom twelve days after my sixteenth birthday,
11:00
and it's been my mom would have been seventy seven the fourth and like,
11:09
now, I see why we had those conversations because those things that she
11:16
instilled in me have been able to remind me and keep me in a place
11:24
of humbleness, because sometime we'll get in a place to where we start to
11:31
think that this is about us when it's right. So I'm thankful for my
11:37
journey. I'm thankful for every person that has crossed my path. I'm thankful
11:46
for just being able to lead by example. You know, oftentimes we say
11:50
we want to be a leader, but are we willing to learn along this
11:58
journey? That means be teachable, be willing to you know, take that
12:03
critical take that you know you might can do it this way, or you
12:09
might can do it. You know. Sometimes people don't. People are not
12:13
coachable, that's true, willing to relearn some things that they learned in error,
12:20
you know, right, Yeah, I think that sometimes in leadership,
12:26
I think some people misunderstand the role of a leader because sometimes a leader has
12:31
to step back and be a follower too, and sometimes they don't want to
12:37
do that because they don't think that they can learn from the next person.
12:41
And being a true leader is learning and knowing when to follow. And I
12:48
haven't always been in situations and places where I felt like I was the leader
12:54
in anything. But as I look back, like I have a new person
13:00
that's been training with me over the last couple of weeks. And she told
13:05
me the other day Friday, she was like, I intimidate her. And
13:09
I asked her, I said, well, how do I intimidate you?
13:13
She said, well, you know, when you're sitting away from me,
13:16
I'm comfortable and I'm okay. But now that we're up close and I'm right
13:20
beside you, and I'm watching you register seven people while I'm still over here
13:26
working on one, it's intimidating. And I told her, I said,
13:30
well, first off, don't focus on what I'm doing, I said,
13:33
because you're doing an excellent job, I said, And you're doing everything that
13:37
you're supposed to be doing. I said. So you are good at what
13:41
you do because you've been trained. I said, So don't watch what I'm
13:46
doing. Your speed will get up to par I said, But I've been
13:48
doing this so long that it comes to second nature. I said, so
13:54
don't be intimidated by me. But if it makes you feel any better,
13:58
I will sit at the end so that you don't have to focus on what
14:01
I'm doing. She was like, but you just you make it look so
14:05
easy that it's intimidating. I said, well, baby, listen, don't
14:09
be intimidated, because we're right here together and we're doing the same job.
14:13
I said. It's just the fact that I've been doing it a little longer
14:16
so i can multitask, I said. And plus I've been by myself,
14:20
so I've had to I said. But you're good, girl, You are
14:24
all right. It is no worries and there's no need to be intimidated because
14:28
you got it. But you know, people, you know, I look
14:39
at myself as being being a little direct in certain situations where people can't always
14:52
handle that, because I think some people want you to sugarcoat certain things for
14:56
them when it's a learning experience, and you can't always sugarcoat when it's a
15:01
necessity. Especially working in healthcare, you can't sugar coat certain things because you
15:07
got to follow certain protocols, so you gotta be very direct. But most
15:13
people don't like that, and they don't understand that I'm not here to hold
15:18
your hand. I'm here to make sure that you do the job and do
15:20
it correctly, So you got to remove the feelings from it and be able
15:26
to do what you're supposed to do right. And then we have to understand
15:31
too that we all have our own speed, we all have our own niche,
15:35
we all have that thing that we have that is it's for us.
15:41
So of course you you and then you you've been that long with than her,
15:48
So who you you've got, you've grasped it. She's still learning,
15:54
and yeah, it'll come, like it's gonna come. And then when when
15:58
she trained somebody, then she's gonna be able to experience the same thing that
16:03
that that she experienced with you, because they gonna look at her and be
16:07
like, because I can imagine everybody probably say that about their trainer, because
16:12
yeah, they're trainer for a reason. Muh, because they have experienced this
16:19
and they have the wisdom and the knowledge to transfer that to somebody else.
16:25
And see, sometimes we don't, we don't grasp that, we don't grasp
16:30
that along this journey and we miss out, like we look at what everybody
16:34
else is doing on their entrepreneur journey. And you know, as an author,
16:41
as a as a creative person, as a entrepreneur, you know a
16:48
lot of us were doing the same thing, but we are all different.
16:53
Yeah, we we don't all see things the same. We don't have the
16:57
same perspective. I may look at something and it may look look yellow to
17:03
me, and you may look at it and it may look orange, So
17:07
you may see it differently. But we may have similar similar aspects or perspectives
17:15
about it, but overall it still comes out different because we are not the
17:19
same. None of us are the same. And when we grasp that,
17:23
it's like we're able to work with other people. We're able to pour into
17:27
other people, We're able to help other people with their talents. Because guess
17:32
what, where everybody think that I may be this person that just got it
17:37
going on or this person that just got it all together, there still may
17:41
be areas where I'm weak and y'all can help me. And that's where I
17:48
don't think we grasp the fact that when we say we have we're a part
17:52
of this circle. You know, a circle, it is a bond that
17:56
can never be broken. It's connected all the way around, it's we together.
18:03
So guess what if everybody in the circle got a circle, then guess
18:07
what all of these circles are connected around and guess what. As these circles
18:11
connect around you got them connecting all the way around the circle, then guess
18:17
what, it ripples out and guess what. If you are a great leader,
18:22
then as those circles grow, then guess what, it all comes back
18:26
to you. Because if you're a great leader, then people are not gonna
18:30
forget that leader. People are not going to forget what you did for them
18:33
and what they can pay on to the next person. That's why I try
18:38
to pour into people the way I pour into it. That's why I try
18:42
to make people understand that they are a purpose that they didn't get dropped out
18:48
of the sky. And just as you know you see doing whatever I'm doing,
18:53
you can do it too, because who am I? Right? Who
18:56
am I? And I want you to do it? And if I can
19:00
help you do it, I'm gonna help you do it. Guess what,
19:03
Because guess what? If you do what I do, then I know you're
19:07
gonna help somebody else, because that's what I always try to help somebody else.
19:11
I never go to a platform without sharing it with somebody else, and
19:17
that's what I tell people. So every time y'all see me sharing the fact
19:21
that I've been featured in a magazine or featured in this and featured in that,
19:25
you better better believe that I ain't being featured by myself. You better
19:30
believe that somebody else gonna be featured right along with me. You may not
19:33
see us advertising it together, because that's how we gotta do. Right in
19:37
fact that we've done it, you know that that's how that mattered. If
19:42
you do it for the next person, then it can continue, it can
19:45
continue, and it can become a ripple effect. And if everything become a
19:48
ripple effect, then we'll begin to see the change that we desired to see.
19:52
That's how modeling exactly exactly. And that's one thing that I can honestly
19:56
say, is that anything that I've learned and just being with you and before
20:03
I even met you, anything that I've learned, I've always tried my best
20:07
to share it with somebody else. Because I didn't know a lot about self
20:12
publishing. I didn't know a lot, but I taught myself. But I've
20:17
been able to teach what I know to other people as well, and I
20:22
always tell them any new person that I come in contact with my publishing business,
20:26
is that what I know I'm willing to share with you. It's not
20:30
about the money for me, because if it was about the money, I'll
20:36
never get it, you know, because the money is not what's gonna motivate
20:38
me. The money will eventually come how it's supposed to, but that's not
20:42
what motivates me to do what I do. I do it because what am
20:47
I gonna do with this knowledge when I'm no longer here. If I've kept
20:49
it in the whole entire time, nobody benefits from that, you know,
20:55
nobody benefits from it staying within me. So anything that I know, I'm
20:59
willing to share with the next person so that they can actually share it with
21:02
somebody else, because I don't understand people who are selfish, are that looks
21:07
to gain monetarily just to say that they did something without the actual care and
21:15
concern that goes along with it, because yeah, you can get the money,
21:19
but do you really care about the person that you're helping. No,
21:23
I really care about them, and I want to ensure that they get the
21:26
best of me, because I'm not gonna give them just the worst or just
21:30
a little bit, just so that they can say that I can say that
21:33
I did something for them that's just not I can't see how people do it.
21:38
It bothers me when they do stuff like that, because it's like and
21:42
then what also bothers me about that is in they want to try to throw
21:47
God over in there. God ain't pleased with that foolishness at all. You
21:51
can prosper right now, but in the end, it's gonna come back on
21:55
you. You know, I just I don't know. I don't understan saying
22:00
that every time everything that's done in the dark, I always come back.
22:07
I mean, there's a scripture that that reminds us that you know, everything
22:10
that you think you doing in secret shall be revealed. You know, you
22:14
you think you getting away with it like and and and I thank God for
22:18
confirmation because it was confirmed to me the other night right here alive on air.
22:22
You know some things that I have been wrestling with, you know,
22:26
wrestling with people, wrestling with you know, am I doing enough? Am
22:33
I am? I? You know, just wrestling with a lot of stuff.
22:36
And you know God is good because he'll send his angels, he said,
22:40
his problem, send his word. He'll send what just what you need
22:45
on time. And and he touched me and I'm just so pleased to be
22:51
to be a part of the Cooper podcasts. I'm so I'm thankful for brother
22:56
oh Over on the w b n N. This year coming up twenty twenty
23:00
four, May twenty four, I will celebrate my fourth year on the network.
23:07
I never thought I would I will be doing broadcasting. I never thought
23:11
I would be doing a lot of the stuff that I do. You talking
23:15
about a girl that really really stuttered. I had an attitude when it comes
23:19
to talking because my teacher when I was in third grade, she scarred me
23:25
because I used to read and talk really really fast, and after everything,
23:30
she would always make me pause and I would get an attitude and I would
23:33
do that. So when I started reading and we have to read out loud,
23:37
and I would always like to read out loud, and I would do
23:41
this. It was like always slacking my lips and like I just had an
23:45
attitude, and like I never thought that I would be doing broadcasting. Never
23:53
thought even you know, I've been on two syndicated radio stations. I've been
23:57
a part of the wb IN for four years. And you know what Brother
24:02
oh Usta always tell me. He said, Angela, you can do this.
24:06
He said, you can do this. He said, you can do
24:07
this, and I'm gonna have to get him over here on the network and
24:10
really show him how much I appreciate him, because if it was not for
24:14
him, we wouldn't be right here tonight on the Crew podcast doing just this.
24:19
You know, I listened to him. I listened to the story of
24:23
how he got into broadcasts and how somebody told me the same thing. And
24:29
he will always tell me, and this brother will always tell me. I
24:32
see you, I see you going in the Hall of Fame. I see
24:34
you doing this. I see you doing this. But guess what, I
24:38
didn't see it. But when I began to see it, when I begin
24:42
to say, well, that could be me, because guess what I was
24:45
between two Hall of famers. You had Jared Petito that came on on Tuesday
24:49
before myself, and then you had Brother Honey that came on after me.
24:56
This is people were in the Hall of Fame and been in the Hall of
24:57
Fame since before, and I'm in between them. So guess what I had
25:02
to show up. I had to show up. Because I didn't show up,
25:06
they would show up around me and I didn't want that. So I
25:10
had to show up. So I began to show up. I began to
25:14
believe that I could be a Hall of Famer too. And this is as
25:18
soon as I started believing it myself, guess what happened and started showing International
25:25
Radio Hall of Fame this year a class of twenty twenty three. I never
25:33
I'm talking about you, talking about cutry girl from Cleveland, South Carolina.
25:36
People be like, where is that at? And then they always making jokes
25:38
about leveland and calling it Neverland, Like no, it's in between Abbeville and
25:45
Anderson, in between us it Atraville. Yeah like no. But anyway,
25:53
I'm thankful because even my peers, my peers own the network, they thought
25:59
enough for me to vote me host of the Year. I'm a Host of
26:03
the year. Betweenty twenty three. I won that Anna Wydell Host of the
26:07
Year award that was on the network and she passed away and brother old name
26:18
of the award after her. And it represents someone with resilience because they said,
26:26
that's what she did, and she was someone that spoke her truth.
26:30
She was someone that if she believed in something, she stood on the end
26:34
like that's me, Like I I didn't get the chance the opportunity. But
26:44
yeah, yes, that's my and then I'm excited. I'm excited about season
26:49
two for us, for y'all. Hopefully I'll get to stay behind the scenes
26:55
a little more. Hopefully we will. Thank you Tanya for jumping on.
27:00
Yes, you need to join the Crew podcast, join the family. We
27:03
do have six spots available if you would like to be a part of the
27:10
Crew Podcast. And we're gonna be doing some things different coming up this season.
27:15
Everyone that joined this year, you're gonna have a founding hosts to work
27:19
with you. You're gonna have someone that you will be assigned to to work
27:23
with you and to be that support for you throughout the whole entire year,
27:29
and then next year you get to do this same thing for somebody. It's
27:36
always pouring into and the overthrow and pour into one cup and overflow into the
27:45
next. That nobody's cup is ever in. But you know, this year
27:53
has been truly, truly, it's been outstanding because to go from where I
28:04
saw my I saw myself in the beginning, I was very, very timid
28:11
and shy, did not want to talk to anybody, want to interview anybody,
28:18
didn't want to do none of that. But number one, I was
28:19
obedient to what God said to do. So I made the phone call and
28:23
I asked you what was the podcast about. So when you told me what
28:29
it was about, what you were looking for, I said, okay,
28:32
I'll do it. But in the back of my mind, I'm like,
28:34
I don't do public speaking. I don't do none of this. I just
28:40
don't. But I've seen the growth within myself and even like tonight, my
28:47
guess that I originally had did not confirm. And also I tried to get
28:52
my brother but they're having a storm so didn't get to work that out.
28:57
But you know, I would have just been like, Okay, you know
29:00
what, we're not even going to do the show because nobody is available or
29:06
anything like that. But I even, you know, did a quick little
29:11
talk in the beginning. And I still sometimes want to just go hide in
29:17
the back and just sit back there and let everybody else do everything. But
29:22
I'm stepping more into who God has called me to be and not shine away
29:29
from that. And I thank everybody from our crew family that has been very
29:36
supportive and encouraging through everything, and you know, losing Mom in the midst
29:42
of all of that, that was really tough, you know, but to
29:47
stay strong and to still be able to do this, And this is one
29:51
of the other things that keeps me motivated to do this because Mama loved the
29:55
podcast. You know how much she loved the family, and she just knew
30:00
she was part of it anyway, and you ain't have to tell her she
30:03
was or she was. She was part of it, recards. So I
30:07
want to make sure that I may continue to make her proud by doing what
30:14
she enjoyed watching me do. Definitely was a part of the Crew. Yes,
30:22
that was That was my purple lip friend. That was my purpose.
30:26
I tell you, I enjoyed having her. She's always going to be a
30:32
part of the Proof podcast. I'm definitely going to try to figure out a
30:37
way to keep her memory alive. You know, she is an honorary host
30:42
here. Yeah, it will always be an honorary host. That would be
30:48
a memory that we're able to keep alive. And I am going to figure
30:52
out a way that I can keep that alive. And I'm excited about twenty
31:00
No. A lot of people slipped on the Crew podcast, but I want
31:03
them to know that there are six amazing individuals. If I've watched them grow
31:11
and if y'all tune in next Sunday, it's going to be our family show,
31:17
so everybody's gonna have a chance to be on. And then we're all
31:19

31:26

31:42

31:45

34:22
and make sure that you are connected to these different brands, because I'm telling
34:27
you the podcast is we y'all. We are a mixture of everything. When
34:30
I said of everything, you got your reader right here like she was the
34:37
books you got her. If you need a book published, she can run
34:42
you down a to z you you got over there. She's a book viewer.
34:47
She does blocks. She anything I gotta do with books over there,
34:54
she will help you with it. She even started right y'all. She's in
35:00
a couple of anathologies with me. Y'all. I'm telling you, I push
35:02
you outside your comfort on. So don't uh. I'm telling you, she's
35:15
supportive and she always shows up. She's always so one, and she would
35:20
do whatever it is she don't. I mean, I don't know what she
35:22
can't do because I see all these flyers this she doing. I see all
35:28
of the different connections that she's making. I see all of the different things.
35:32
So where when we have all the personal consultation, me and her really
35:37
don't have one. I'm not she could really help me out with some stuff.
35:42
I tell you, I'm about to push out of her comfort zone.
35:45
She's gonna be like, why are you doing this? But because I've been
35:50
trying to push up for the last few years and she ain't been wanting to
35:52
come out of So if you can push a little bit more, she might
36:00
When I finished with her, she might have wish she might not have followed
36:04
you over here. Okay, Look, I keept trying to tell her,
36:14
you can't follow me everywhere I go. Now you follow me in certain places,
36:16
they gonna get you in the space you ain't gonna be ready for you.
36:25
But you know you gotta be Yeah, because there is no I guess
36:36
you could say there is and that you got Alma, you got, you
36:42
got minister Alma. She coming with inspirational next year, she's gonna be giving
36:46
out the inspirational. And not to tell you she's truly been a warrior because
36:51
yes, stroke, massive stroke two years ago, confined to a bed,
36:54
Yet this lady still show up. She has not missed the show. She
37:00
may not show up all of the shows, but she do share, She
37:04
do catch you play, She do try to jump phone when I tell you,
37:08
she showed up when she can, and I'm thankful for that. You
37:13
know. She said she's gonna do better in twenty twenty four. I'm looking
37:15
forward to that because I know it's gonna be amazing. And she's had her
37:21
battles, her illness and all that, but you know, so we're looking
37:28
forward to, you know how God is gonna continue to restore her and she'll
37:32
be able to show up better, you know. And I'm just looking to
37:37
who God is gonna bring to sit at the table with us and to be
37:40
a part of what we've already established. Y'all established this, y'all, the
37:45
founding six, the founding six, y'all established this, y'all. Y'all,
37:52
y'all established the Crew podcast, because y'all are what the Crew podcasts have been
37:58
established. People say y'all, people say y'all show up, people say y'all
38:01
deliver these shows. People saw y'all sitting in front of the camera and interview
38:07
these amazing people that y'all have had in the show. I've learned so much
38:12
and I've sit back behind the scene my heart filled with joy because guess what,
38:16
these are people that you know, connected with me and said, now,
38:21
I'm gonna give it a chance. I'm gonna try. I'm gonna be
38:22
a part of the Crew podcast. And the scene, y'all moving and grooving
38:27
in your elements. It just does something to me, and I get excited.
38:31
I get excited. It's the proud mama feeling I believe, you know,
38:36
like, look at my babies. Look at my babies out there doing
38:40
it, you know. But you know, like I said, that's what
38:44
it is. And yeah, you know, look at my babies out there.
38:50
But you know, I want to say that twenty twenty four is definitely
38:53
going to be another year where God is definitely gonna show out and show out
38:59
as he's done for twenty twenty three for us. But I cannot leave this
39:05
show again without telling you just how much I am grateful that he connected our
39:12
past, because had he not connected our pasts, who knows where I would
39:16
have been and who knows what I would be doing. But I know that
39:20
it was by God's design that we both met at the time we met,
39:25
and we continue to have things that He keeps us connected with. And you
39:31
know you had mentioned something earlier, and I just want to elaborate on that.
39:37
You know, everybody has their things that they're good at. And you
39:42
know, I was thinking the other day about a picture, and you know,
39:46
people will say it's picture perfect, but the picture is never really perfect.
39:52
It depends on the viewer. So it's the perspective of the viewer that
39:55
makes the picture perfect. You know, we've had our flaws and everything that
40:00
we've done from start to finish, but in some people's eyes, there's still
40:05
a lot of imperfections. But when you look at us and we asked,
40:08
you know, was this good or was that bad or whatever, we can
40:13
say it was perfect because it was perfect for in the moment that we needed
40:15
it to be. And if you look back, Yak, you can see
40:19
where you could have done something better. But the picture is only perfect to
40:23
the viewer. So if the viewer doesn't see that it's perfect, then this
40:28
the viewer that's looking at it. So nothing is ever going to be perfect
40:34
in the eyes of one person, but it's going to be perfect in the
40:38
person who's viewing it. And we've perfected what we were supposed to perfect and
40:45
we're getting better at each and everything. So just because my view may be
40:50
a little flawed today doesn't mean that it won't be perfect tomorrow. But you
40:53
know, I can't do anything without God, and He leads the path to
40:59
everything that I do. And as always, I thank you, I love
41:02
you, I adore you. I'm going to allow you to continue to push
41:07
me outside of my comfort zone, even though sometimes I want to plant my
41:10
feet and say no, I'm not gonna do it, but I know it
41:14
ain't gonna work anyway, So there's no need in fighting that at all,
41:20
because it's not gonna work. So I'm gonna close out with saying thank you.
41:27
But you know I never close the show without saying stay out of God's
41:31
business. The only thing that he requires you to do is to be obedient
41:35
to what he's called you to do. So as always, I thank you
41:38
guys for tuning in and prepare yourselves for the end of this year. But
41:45
get ready because God is not finished with us, and He has so much
41:49
more for us to do and bring to you in twenty twenty four. So
41:52
do not sleep on the Crew podcast because if you do, you're gonna miss
41:57
it. All right, Love you guys, have a good night. I
42:06
don't think I
