  Speaker 1: her tracks when she heard this.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: The dishonest manager is very difficult to understand.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: What the dishonest manager? Moah, what does it mean.

  Speaker 3: To be faithful in the little things? The manager is
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: dishonest in the little things?
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Ah, dishonest little little the quarters. I'm not being dishonest.
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: Little things are really big things. If a person can't
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: be honest and taking care of something small, then can
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: you really trust them with bigger things? Bigger things like
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: what well things that are more valuable in God's eyes.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: If we're not honest with small things, then can we
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: really be trusted with bigger responsibilities.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: The manager isn't honest with the little things, so.
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: I guess not, well, I never And if you're not

  Speaker 6: riches are things that matter in eternity.

  Speaker 5: Like telling people about God and helping them to be saved.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, That's what I want the children at some
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: account to experience.
