• 2:46
  All
• 2:46
  right,
• 2:47
  so
• 2:47
  today
• 2:47
  we're
• 2:48
  talking
• 2:48
  about
• 2:49
  what
• 2:49
  the
• 2:49
  church
• 2:49
  could
• 2:50
  learn
• 2:51
  from
• 2:51
  comic
• 2:52
  Cons.
• 2:52
  I
• 2:53
  have
• 2:53
  been
• 2:53
  going
• 2:53
  to
• 2:53
  cons
• 2:54
  for
• 2:54
  a
• 2:54
  long
• 2:55
  time,
• 2:55
  and
• 2:55
  I'll
• 2:56
  never
• 2:56
  forget
• 2:56
  my
• 2:56
  very
• 2:57
  first
• 2:57
  Con.
• 2:58
  I
• 2:58
  left
• 2:58
  thinking,
• 2:59
  wow,
• 2:59
  this
• 3:00
  is
• 3:00
  the
• 3:00
  most
• 3:00
  inclusive
• 3:01
  and
• 3:01
  diverse
• 3:02
  place
• 3:03
  I've
• 3:03
  ever
• 3:03
  really
• 3:04
  just
• 3:04
  spent
• 3:05
  time
• 3:05
  in.
• 3:05
  And
• 3:06
  wouldn't
• 3:06
  it
• 3:06
  be
• 3:06
  cool
• 3:07
  if
• 3:07
  the
• 3:07
  church
• 3:08
  was
• 3:08
  a
• 3:08
  lot
• 3:09
  more
• 3:09
  like
• 3:09
  that?
• 3:10
  Church
• 3:10
  and
• 3:11
  con
• 3:11
  spaces
• 3:12
  both
• 3:12
  center
• 3:12
  on
• 3:12
  community,
• 3:13
  but
• 3:13
  only
• 3:14
  one
• 3:14
  typically
• 3:15
  lets
• 3:15
  you
• 3:15
  show
• 3:15
  up
• 3:16
  in
• 3:16
  full
• 3:16
  cosplay.
• 3:17
  Now,
• 3:17
  that
• 3:17
  doesn't
• 3:18
  mean
• 3:18
  that
• 3:18
  some
• 3:18
  of
• 3:18
  us
• 3:19
  don't
• 3:19
  still
• 3:20
  show
• 3:20
  up
• 3:20
  to
• 3:20
  church
• 3:20
  dressed
• 3:21
  up
• 3:21
  from
• 3:21
  time
• 3:21
  to
• 3:22
  time.
• 3:23
  Right.
• 3:23
  But
• 3:24
  it's
• 3:24
  not
• 3:24
  as
• 3:25
  widely
• 3:26
  accepted.
• 3:27
  Yeah.
• 3:28
  And
• 3:28
  there
• 3:28
  are,
• 3:28
  like,
• 3:28
  special
• 3:28
  cases.
• 3:29
  You
• 3:29
  know,
• 3:29
  you
• 3:30
  have,
• 3:30
  like,
• 3:30
  motorcycle
• 3:31
  churches.
• 3:31
  And
• 3:32
  that's
• 3:32
  true.
• 3:32
  That
• 3:32
  kind
• 3:33
  of
• 3:33
  thing.
• 3:33
  That's
• 3:33
  true.
• 3:34
  The
• 3:34
  whole,
• 3:34
  like,
• 3:35
  cowboy
• 3:35
  church
• 3:35
  thing.
• 3:36
  And,
• 3:36
  you
• 3:36
  know,
• 3:37
  one
• 3:37
  time
• 3:38
  I
• 3:38
  did
• 3:38
  wear
• 3:38
  my
• 3:38
  Ghostbusters
• 3:39
  costume,
• 3:40
  proton
• 3:40
  pack
• 3:40
  and
• 3:41
  everything
• 3:41
  on
• 3:41
  Pentecost
• 3:42
  because
• 3:42
  we
• 3:42
  were
• 3:42
  talking
• 3:42
  about
• 3:42
  the
• 3:43
  Holy
• 3:43
  Ghost
• 3:43
  and
• 3:44
  that
• 3:44
  was
• 3:44
  fun.
• 3:45
  Any
• 3:45
  good
• 3:45
  excuse?
• 3:46
  That's
• 3:46
  kind
• 3:46
  of
• 3:46
  so
• 3:46
  you.
• 3:47
  So
• 3:47
  you
• 3:47
  were
• 3:47
  going
• 3:47
  to
• 3:48
  bust
• 3:48
  the
• 3:48
  Holy
• 3:48
  Ghost?
• 3:49
  Well,
• 3:49
  you
• 3:49
  know,
• 3:49
  we
• 3:50
  tried
• 3:50
  not
• 3:50
  to,
• 3:50
  you
• 3:51
  know,
• 3:51
  but
• 3:51
  we
• 3:52
  talked
• 3:52
  about
• 3:53
  Ghost
• 3:53
  and
• 3:53
  the
• 3:53
  Ghost.
• 3:54
  I
• 3:54
  don't
• 3:54
  know.
• 3:54
  It
• 3:55
  didn't
• 3:55
  fit.
• 3:55
  It
• 3:55
  was
• 3:55
  an
• 3:56
  excuse
• 3:56
  to
• 3:56
  wear
• 3:56
  my
• 3:56
  proton
• 3:57
  pack.
• 3:57
  Someone
• 3:57
  started
• 3:58
  speaking
• 3:58
  in
• 3:58
  tongues
• 3:58
  and
• 3:59
  you
• 3:59
  turned
• 3:59
  on
• 3:59
  the
• 3:59
  proton
• 4:00
  pack.
• 4:01
  Just
• 4:01
  don't
• 4:02
  cross
• 4:02
  the
• 4:02
  streams.
• 4:03
  It'll
• 4:03
  be
• 4:03
  fine.
• 4:05
  So
• 4:06
  I
• 4:06
  think
• 4:06
  we've
• 4:06
  all
• 4:06
  felt,
• 4:07
  though,
• 4:07
  that
• 4:07
  tension
• 4:08
  between
• 4:08
  sacred
• 4:08
  spaces
• 4:09
  and
• 4:09
  those
• 4:10
  things
• 4:10
  that
• 4:10
  we
• 4:10
  are
• 4:11
  passionate
• 4:11
  about.
• 4:12
  What
• 4:12
  is
• 4:12
  it
• 4:13
  for
• 4:13
  us?
• 4:13
  Where
• 4:14
  do
• 4:14
  we
• 4:14
  find
• 4:14
  that
• 4:14
  sacred
• 4:15
  space
• 4:15
  or
• 4:15
  those
• 4:16
  places
• 4:16
  where
• 4:16
  we
• 4:16
  can
• 4:17
  be
• 4:17
  fully
• 4:18
  ourselves?
• 4:19
  And
• 4:19
  it
• 4:20
  matters
• 4:20
  because
• 4:20
  we're
• 4:21
  in
• 4:21
  a
• 4:21
  world
• 4:21
  where
• 4:21
  there
• 4:22
  is
• 4:22
  some
• 4:22
  skepticism,
• 4:23
  maybe
• 4:23
  towards
• 4:24
  the
• 4:24
  church
• 4:24
  or
• 4:25
  towards
• 4:25
  systems
• 4:25
  or
• 4:26
  establishments
• 4:27
  as
• 4:27
  a
• 4:27
  whole.
• 4:28
  And
• 4:28
  so
• 4:29
  how
• 4:29
  do
• 4:29
  we
• 4:29
  create
• 4:29
  space
• 4:30
  where
• 4:30
  people
• 4:30
  feel
• 4:30
  that
• 4:31
  belonging
• 4:31
  that
• 4:31
  they
• 4:32
  might
• 4:32
  feel
• 4:33
  at
• 4:33
  a
• 4:33
  convention?
• 4:34
  And
• 4:34
  what
• 4:34
  can
• 4:35
  that
• 4:35
  teach
• 4:35
  us
• 4:35
  about
• 4:35
  where
• 4:35
  the
• 4:36
  Holy
• 4:36
  Spirit
• 4:36
  is
• 4:36
  moving
• 4:37
  in
• 4:37
  the
• 4:37
  world
• 4:37
  around
• 4:38
  us?
• 4:39
  So
• 4:39
  let's
• 4:39
  dive
• 4:39
  in.
• 4:40
  So,
• 4:40
  tj,
• 4:41
  what's
• 4:41
  your
• 4:41
  Comic
• 4:42
  Con
• 4:42
  experience
• 4:43
  like?
• 4:44
  So
• 4:45
  I've
• 4:45
  never
• 4:46
  been
• 4:46
  to
• 4:46
  a
• 4:46
  Con
• 4:47
  that
• 4:48
  I
• 4:48
  wasn't
• 4:48
  speaking
• 4:49
  at.
• 4:49
  Okay.
• 4:50
  Like,
• 4:50
  I've
• 4:50
  never
• 4:51
  just
• 4:51
  attended
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  Con
• 4:52
  just
• 4:52
  because,
• 4:53
  like,
• 4:53
  I
• 4:54
  much
• 4:54
  would
• 4:55
  prefer
• 4:55
  to
• 4:55
  be
• 4:55
  at
• 4:56
  home
• 4:56
  doing
• 4:56
  something
• 4:57
  mode,
• 4:57
  like
• 4:58
  90%
• 4:59
  of
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  time.
• 5:00
  So
• 5:00
  usually
• 5:00
  when
• 5:01
  it
• 5:01
  comes
• 5:01
  up,
• 5:01
  I'm
• 5:01
  like,
• 5:01
  oh,
• 5:02
  no.
• 5:03
  Or
• 5:03
  like,
• 5:04
  it
• 5:04
  just
• 5:04
  doesn't
• 5:04
  work
• 5:04
  with
• 5:04
  my
• 5:04
  work
• 5:05
  schedule.
• 5:06
  So
• 5:06
  I've
• 5:07
  never
• 5:07
  been
• 5:07
  to
• 5:07
  a
• 5:07
  Con
• 5:08
  just
• 5:08
  to
• 5:08
  go
• 5:08
  to
• 5:09
  a
• 5:09
  Con.
• 5:10
  The
• 5:10
  ones
• 5:10
  I've
• 5:10
  spoken
• 5:10
  at,
• 5:11
  though,
• 5:12
  really
• 5:12
  fun.
• 5:13
  It's
• 5:13
  always
• 5:13
  a
• 5:13
  good
• 5:14
  time.
• 5:14
  It's
• 5:15
  just
• 5:15
  me
• 5:16
  personally,
• 5:16
  I
• 5:17
  love
• 5:17
  being
• 5:17
  in
• 5:17
  my
• 5:17
  home.
• 5:18
  I
• 5:18
  pay
• 5:18
  to
• 5:19
  live
• 5:19
  here,
• 5:19
  you
• 5:19
  know,
• 5:20
  I'm
• 5:20
  going
• 5:20
  to
• 5:21
  enjoy
• 5:21
  it.
• 5:22
  That's
• 5:22
  fair.
• 5:23
  So
• 5:23
  for
• 5:23
  me,
• 5:24
  GalaxyCon
• 5:25
  is
• 5:25
  my
• 5:25
  favorite
• 5:26
  weekend
• 5:26
  of
• 5:26
  the
• 5:26
  year
• 5:26
  every
• 5:27
  year.
• 5:27
  GalaxyCon
• 5:28
  is
• 5:28
  in
• 5:28
  Raleigh
• 5:29
  every
• 5:29
  year.
• 5:30
  And
• 5:31
  it.
• 5:31
  Well,
• 5:31
  it's
• 5:31
  all
• 5:31
  over
• 5:32
  the
• 5:32
  place,
• 5:32
  actually.
• 5:32
  They
• 5:33
  go
• 5:33
  to
• 5:33
  Richmond,
• 5:33
  all
• 5:34
  sorts
• 5:34
  of
• 5:34
  places.
• 5:35
  But
• 5:35
  we've
• 5:36
  been
• 5:36
  going
• 5:36
  to
• 5:36
  galaxycon
• 5:37
  since
• 5:37
  it
• 5:38
  was
• 5:38
  still
• 5:38
  Supercon,
• 5:39
  which
• 5:39
  was
• 5:40
  a
• 5:40
  long
• 5:40
  time
• 5:40
  ago,
• 5:42
  almost,
• 5:42
  I
• 5:42
  guess,
• 5:43
  eight
• 5:43
  or
• 5:43
  nine
• 5:43
  years
• 5:43
  ago.
• 5:44
  So
• 5:44
  not
• 5:44
  that
• 5:44
  long,
• 5:44
  but
• 5:45
  long.
• 5:46
  And
• 5:47
  so
• 5:47
  that's
• 5:47
  our
• 5:48
  big
• 5:48
  vacation
• 5:48
  every
• 5:48
  summer
• 5:49
  is
• 5:49
  to
• 5:49
  go
• 5:49
  to
• 5:49
  galaxycon.
• 5:50
  Our
• 5:50
  kids
• 5:51
  dress
• 5:51
  up.
• 5:51
  My
• 5:51
  husband
• 5:52
  and
• 5:52
  I
• 5:52
  dress
• 5:52
  up.
• 5:52
  We
• 5:52
  sit
• 5:53
  in
• 5:53
  on
• 5:53
  panels
• 5:54
  like
• 5:54
  it's
• 5:54
  a
• 5:55
  whole
• 5:55
  thing
• 5:55
  for
• 5:55
  our
• 5:56
  family.
• 5:56
  And
• 5:56
  I
• 5:56
  think
• 5:57
  our
• 5:57
  most
• 5:57
  exciting
• 5:58
  moment
• 5:58
  was
• 5:59
  a
• 5:59
  few
• 5:59
  years
• 6:00
  ago.
• 6:00
  Ernie
• 6:00
  Hudson
• 6:01
  was
• 6:01
  at
• 6:02
  GalaxyCon.
• 6:03
  And
• 6:03
  again,
• 6:03
  we're
• 6:03
  a
• 6:04
  Ghostbusters
• 6:04
  family.
• 6:05
  But
• 6:05
  my,
• 6:06
  my
• 6:06
  middle
• 6:06
  son
• 6:06
  was
• 6:07
  obsessed,
• 6:08
  like,
• 6:08
  obsessed
• 6:09
  obsessed
• 6:10
  with
• 6:10
  Ghostbusters.
• 6:11
  And
• 6:11
  he
• 6:11
  especially
• 6:12
  loved
• 6:12
  Ernie
• 6:13
  Hudson.
• 6:13
  And
• 6:14
  so
• 6:14
  there's
• 6:14
  this
• 6:14
  long
• 6:14
  line
• 6:15
  of
• 6:15
  people
• 6:15
  in
• 6:15
  line
• 6:16
  to
• 6:16
  ask
• 6:16
  questions.
• 6:17
  And
• 6:17
  Alan
• 6:18
  at
• 6:18
  the
• 6:18
  time
• 6:18
  was,
• 6:18
  like,
• 6:19
  three
• 6:19
  years
• 6:19
  old.
• 6:19
  And
• 6:20
  I'm
• 6:20
  holding
• 6:20
  him,
• 6:20
  and
• 6:21
  we
• 6:21
  go
• 6:21
  up
• 6:21
  to
• 6:21
  the
• 6:21
  microphone,
• 6:22
  I
• 6:22
  say,
• 6:22
  alan
• 6:22
  has
• 6:23
  a
• 6:23
  question.
• 6:23
  And
• 6:23
  he
• 6:23
  goes,
• 6:24
  Mr.
• 6:25
  Hudson?
• 6:26
  He
• 6:26
  goes,
• 6:27
  I
• 6:27
  love
• 6:28
  this
• 6:28
  town.
• 6:28
  And
• 6:29
  at
• 6:29
  first,
• 6:29
  Ernie
• 6:29
  Hudson
• 6:30
  was
• 6:30
  like,
• 6:30
  yeah,
• 6:30
  I
• 6:30
  like
• 6:31
  Raleigh,
• 6:31
  too.
• 6:31
  And
• 6:31
  then
• 6:31
  he
• 6:32
  realized
• 6:32
  that
• 6:32
  was
• 6:32
  his
• 6:32
  last
• 6:33
  line
• 6:33
  in
• 6:33
  the
• 6:33
  movie,
• 6:34
  and
• 6:34
  he
• 6:35
  lost
• 6:35
  it.
• 6:36
  So
• 6:36
  for
• 6:36
  the
• 6:36
  rest
• 6:37
  of
• 6:37
  the
• 6:37
  time,
• 6:37
  when
• 6:37
  we'd
• 6:38
  run
• 6:38
  across
• 6:38
  him
• 6:38
  at
• 6:39
  the
• 6:39
  con,
• 6:39
  because
• 6:39
  he
• 6:39
  would
• 6:40
  just
• 6:40
  wander
• 6:40
  around,
• 6:40
  he'd
• 6:41
  look
• 6:41
  at
• 6:41
  my
• 6:41
  kid
• 6:41
  and
• 6:41
  yell,
• 6:42
  I
• 6:42
  love
• 6:42
  this
• 6:43
  town.
• 6:43
  And
• 6:43
  it
• 6:43
  was
• 6:43
  just
• 6:44
  the
• 6:44
  coolest
• 6:44
  thing.
• 6:45
  And
• 6:45
  so
• 6:46
  cons,
• 6:46
  I
• 6:46
  feel
• 6:47
  like,
• 6:47
  not
• 6:47
  only
• 6:48
  let
• 6:48
  you
• 6:48
  create
• 6:48
  a
• 6:48
  sense
• 6:49
  of
• 6:49
  belonging,
• 6:49
  but
• 6:49
  they
• 6:50
  let
• 6:50
  you.
• 6:51
  I
• 6:51
  don't
• 6:51
  know,
• 6:51
  there's
• 6:51
  a
• 6:52
  sense
• 6:52
  in
• 6:52
  which
• 6:53
  you
• 6:53
  sort
• 6:53
  of
• 6:53
  develop
• 6:54
  a
• 6:54
  camaraderie,
• 6:54
  even
• 6:55
  with
• 6:55
  people
• 6:55
  you
• 6:55
  don't
• 6:55
  know
• 6:56
  at
• 6:56
  all,
• 6:56
  even
• 6:57
  the
• 6:57
  celebrities.
• 6:58
  And
• 6:58
  there's
• 6:58
  something
• 6:59
  really
• 6:59
  cool
• 6:59
  about
• 6:59
  that.
• 7:00
  Yeah,
• 7:00
  it
• 7:01
  almost
• 7:01
  feels
• 7:01
  like
• 7:02
  the
• 7:02
  summer
• 7:02
  camp
• 7:02
  effect,
• 7:03
  where,
• 7:04
  like,
• 7:05
  everyone's
• 7:05
  just.
• 7:06
  Just
• 7:07
  happier
• 7:07
  in
• 7:07
  general.
• 7:08
  Like,
• 7:08
  everyone's
• 7:09
  more
• 7:09
  willing
• 7:09
  to
• 7:09
  meet
• 7:09
  strangers.
• 7:10
  For
• 7:10
  sure,
• 7:11
  everybody's
• 7:11
  a
• 7:12
  stranger,
• 7:12
  and
• 7:12
  you're
• 7:13
  all
• 7:13
  here
• 7:13
  doing
• 7:14
  something
• 7:14
  you
• 7:14
  love.
• 7:14
  Unless
• 7:15
  you
• 7:15
  got
• 7:15
  forced
• 7:15
  to
• 7:15
  go
• 7:15
  to
• 7:16
  summer
• 7:16
  camp,
• 7:16
  in
• 7:16
  which
• 7:16
  case,
• 7:17
  sorry,
• 7:18
  but,
• 7:19
  you
• 7:19
  know,
• 7:19
  a
• 7:19
  lot
• 7:19
  of
• 7:20
  us
• 7:20
  wanted
• 7:20
  to
• 7:20
  go,
• 7:22
  so
• 7:23
  it
• 7:23
  feels
• 7:23
  similar
• 7:23
  to
• 7:24
  me.
• 7:24
  So
• 7:24
  it's.
• 7:25
  It's.
• 7:25
  There's
• 7:26
  less
• 7:26
  pressure.
• 7:27
  Like
• 7:27
  a
• 7:28
  church
• 7:28
  where,
• 7:29
  you
• 7:29
  know,
• 7:29
  everyone
• 7:29
  expects
• 7:30
  you
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  be
• 7:30
  a
• 7:30
  certain
• 7:30
  way.
• 7:31
  At
• 7:31
  a
• 7:31
  Con,
• 7:32
  everyone
• 7:32
  just
• 7:33
  expects
• 7:33
  you
• 7:33
  to
• 7:33
  be
• 7:34
  you.
• 7:34
  So.
• 7:36
  Yeah,
• 7:36
  yeah,
• 7:37
  absolutely.
• 7:38
  I
• 7:38
  think
• 7:38
  there's
• 7:39
  something
• 7:39
  really
• 7:39
  beautiful
• 7:40
  about
• 7:42
  that
• 7:42
  sort
• 7:42
  of
• 7:42
  just
• 7:43
  sense
• 7:43
  of
• 7:43
  camaraderie.
• 7:44
  There's
• 7:44
  a
• 7:44
  girl
• 7:44
  that
• 7:45
  goes
• 7:45
  to
• 7:45
  galaxy
• 7:45
  Con
• 7:46
  every
• 7:46
  year
• 7:46
  with
• 7:46
  her
• 7:47
  violin,
• 7:48
  and
• 7:48
  she
• 7:48
  walks
• 7:49
  up
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  different
• 7:49
  people
• 7:50
  and
• 7:50
  will
• 7:50
  play
• 7:50
  the
• 7:51
  theme
• 7:51
  song
• 7:51
  for
• 7:51
  whatever
• 7:52
  they're
• 7:52
  dressed
• 7:52
  as,
• 7:53
  just
• 7:54
  on
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  fly.
• 7:54
  It's
• 7:54
  one
• 7:55
  of
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  coolest
• 7:55
  things.
• 7:57
  So
• 7:57
  thinking
• 7:57
  of
• 7:58
  cons
• 7:59
  as
• 7:59
  maybe
• 8:00
  the
• 8:00
  new,
• 8:01
  Not
• 8:02
  a
• 8:02
  replacement
• 8:02
  for
• 8:02
  the
• 8:02
  church,
• 8:03
  but
• 8:03
  as
• 8:03
  a
• 8:03
  church
• 8:04
  experience.
• 8:04
  Comic
• 8:05
  cons
• 8:05
  are
• 8:05
  places
• 8:06
  that
• 8:06
  are
• 8:06
  typically
• 8:06
  pretty
• 8:07
  inclusive.
• 8:08
  You
• 8:08
  can
• 8:08
  be
• 8:09
  a
• 8:09
  Jedi
• 8:09
  or
• 8:09
  a
• 8:09
  hobbit
• 8:10
  or
• 8:10
  a
• 8:10
  superhero
• 8:11
  or
• 8:11
  just
• 8:11
  be
• 8:12
  yourself,
• 8:12
  and
• 8:13
  somebody
• 8:13
  is
• 8:13
  going
• 8:13
  to
• 8:13
  find
• 8:14
  you
• 8:14
  and
• 8:14
  recognize
• 8:15
  you
• 8:15
  and
• 8:15
  make
• 8:15
  you
• 8:15
  feel
• 8:16
  welcome.
• 8:17
  People
• 8:17
  gathered
• 8:18
  for
• 8:18
  a
• 8:18
  shared
• 8:18
  story,
• 8:19
  A
• 8:19
  sense
• 8:19
  of
• 8:19
  belonging
• 8:20
  for
• 8:21
  the
• 8:21
  love
• 8:21
  of
• 8:21
  whatever
• 8:22
  it
• 8:22
  is
• 8:22
  that
• 8:23
  they
• 8:23
  are,
• 8:23
  you
• 8:23
  know,
• 8:23
  part
• 8:24
  of
• 8:24
  the
• 8:24
  fandom
• 8:24
  of,
• 8:24
  and
• 8:25
  they're
• 8:25
  designed
• 8:26
  to
• 8:26
  make
• 8:26
  space
• 8:27
  for
• 8:27
  everyone.
• 8:27
  So
• 8:28
  what
• 8:28
  would
• 8:28
  it
• 8:28
  look
• 8:28
  like
• 8:28
  if
• 8:29
  churches
• 8:30
  took
• 8:30
  a
• 8:30
  page
• 8:31
  from
• 8:31
  that
• 8:31
  book?
• 8:32
  Yeah.
• 8:32
  So
• 8:33
  I
• 8:33
  feel
• 8:33
  like
• 8:34
  what
• 8:34
  happens
• 8:34
  in
• 8:34
  a
• 8:34
  church
• 8:35
  is,
• 8:36
  you
• 8:36
  know,
• 8:36
  you
• 8:36
  show
• 8:37
  up.
• 8:37
  Everyone
• 8:37
  expects
• 8:38
  you
• 8:38
  to
• 8:38
  be
• 8:38
  perfect.
• 8:39
  Like,
• 8:39
  churches
• 8:40
  aren't
• 8:40
  a
• 8:40
  place
• 8:40
  for
• 8:41
  you
• 8:41
  to
• 8:41
  become
• 8:42
  closer
• 8:42
  to
• 8:42
  God
• 8:43
  anymore.
• 8:43
  You're
• 8:44
  just
• 8:44
  supposed
• 8:44
  to
• 8:44
  be
• 8:45
  there
• 8:45
  already.
• 8:46
  No
• 8:46
  one
• 8:46
  expects
• 8:46
  you
• 8:47
  to
• 8:47
  act
• 8:47
  that
• 8:47
  way.
• 8:47
  And
• 8:48
  a
• 8:48
  lot
• 8:48
  of
• 8:48
  churches,
• 8:49
  you
• 8:49
  just
• 8:49
  go
• 8:49
  in,
• 8:49
  you
• 8:50
  sit
• 8:50
  down,
• 8:50
  you
• 8:50
  do
• 8:50
  nothing,
• 8:51
  you
• 8:51
  listen
• 8:51
  for
• 8:52
  40
• 8:52
  minutes
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  maybe
• 8:54
  sing
• 8:54
  a
• 8:54
  couple
• 8:54
  of
• 8:54
  songs,
• 8:54
  and
• 8:54
  you
• 8:55
  go
• 8:55
  home.
• 8:55
  And
• 8:56
  a
• 8:56
  lot
• 8:56
  of
• 8:56
  churches
• 8:57
  have
• 8:57
  lost
• 8:57
  that.
• 8:58
  Like,
• 8:59
  this
• 8:59
  is
• 8:59
  where
• 8:59
  we
• 9:00
  build
• 9:00
  ourselves
• 9:01
  up.
• 9:01
  This
• 9:01
  is
• 9:01
  where
• 9:02
  we
• 9:02
  spread
• 9:02
  the
• 9:02
  word.
• 9:03
  This
• 9:03
  is
• 9:03
  where
• 9:03
  we
• 9:03
  deal
• 9:03
  with
• 9:04
  our
• 9:04
  problems.
• 9:05
  That's
• 9:05
  gone.
• 9:06
  The
• 9:07
  church
• 9:07
  is
• 9:07
  no
• 9:07
  longer
• 9:08
  the
• 9:08
  place
• 9:09
  where
• 9:09
  the
• 9:09
  community
• 9:10
  gathers.
• 9:10
  It's
• 9:11
  where
• 9:12
  we
• 9:12
  go
• 9:12
  before
• 9:13
  Sunday
• 9:13
  lunch.
• 9:13
  Yeah.
• 9:15
  So
• 9:16
  coming
• 9:16
  over
• 9:17
  that,
• 9:17
  I
• 9:17
  think,
• 9:18
  would
• 9:18
  be
• 9:18
  pretty
• 9:18
  helpful,
• 9:19
  for
• 9:19
  sure.
• 9:20
  Yeah.
• 9:21
  I
• 9:21
  remember
• 9:21
  growing
• 9:21
  up
• 9:22
  being
• 9:22
  a
• 9:22
  preacher's
• 9:23
  kid.
• 9:24
  If
• 9:24
  you
• 9:24
  didn't
• 9:24
  go
• 9:25
  to
• 9:25
  church,
• 9:25
  you
• 9:25
  didn't
• 9:25
  get
• 9:25
  to
• 9:25
  go
• 9:26
  out
• 9:26
  to
• 9:26
  eat
• 9:26
  afterwards.
• 9:27
  That
• 9:27
  was
• 9:27
  the
• 9:27
  rule.
• 9:27
  So
• 9:28
  you
• 9:28
  could
• 9:28
  skip,
• 9:28
  but
• 9:29
  you
• 9:29
  also
• 9:29
  skipped
• 9:29
  out
• 9:30
  on
• 9:30
  Outback
• 9:30
  or
• 9:30
  wherever
• 9:31
  we
• 9:31
  were
• 9:31
  going
• 9:32
  that
• 9:32
  day
• 9:32
  for
• 9:33
  lunch.
• 9:34
  Yeah.
• 9:34
  I
• 9:34
  agree
• 9:34
  with
• 9:34
  that.
• 9:35
  As
• 9:35
  someone
• 9:35
  who
• 9:35
  works
• 9:35
  in
• 9:35
  a
• 9:36
  restaurant
• 9:36
  on
• 9:36
  a
• 9:36
  lot
• 9:36
  of
• 9:37
  Sundays,
• 9:38
  I
• 9:38
  agree
• 9:38
  with
• 9:38
  that.
• 9:38
  Yeah.
• 9:39
  A
• 9:39
  lot
• 9:39
  of
• 9:39
  times
• 9:39
  somebody
• 9:40
  will
• 9:40
  come
• 9:40
  up
• 9:40
  after
• 9:41
  they've
• 9:41
  eaten
• 9:41
  and
• 9:41
  order
• 9:42
  something
• 9:42
  else.
• 9:42
  I
• 9:42
  was
• 9:42
  like,
• 9:43
  don't
• 9:43
  get
• 9:43
  them
• 9:43
  anything.
• 9:44
  They
• 9:44
  didn't
• 9:45
  go
• 9:45
  to
• 9:45
  church.
• 9:46
  They
• 9:46
  don't
• 9:47
  get
• 9:47
  to
• 9:47
  eat.
• 9:48
  Yeah.
• 9:48
  Punch
• 9:48
  the
• 9:48
  ticket,
• 9:49
  you
• 9:49
  know.
• 9:50
  No,
• 9:50
  it's
• 9:50
  so
• 9:50
  true,
• 9:51
  though.
• 9:51
  Do
• 9:51
  we.
• 9:52
  And.
• 9:52
  And
• 9:52
  I
• 9:53
  realize
• 9:53
  there
• 9:53
  are
• 9:53
  definitely
• 9:54
  some
• 9:54
  churches
• 9:54
  where
• 9:54
  there's
• 9:55
  more
• 9:55
  of
• 9:55
  a
• 9:55
  shared
• 9:55
  vulnerability
• 9:56
  in
• 9:56
  that
• 9:57
  sort
• 9:57
  of
• 9:57
  space.
• 9:58
  But
• 9:58
  what
• 9:58
  if
• 9:58
  that
• 9:59
  was
• 9:59
  the
• 10:00
  absolute
• 10:00
  MO
• 10:00
  of
• 10:01
  the
• 10:01
  church
• 10:01
  that
• 10:01
  we
• 10:02
  come
• 10:02
  and
• 10:02
  we
• 10:02
  bring
• 10:02
  our
• 10:03
  vulnerabilities,
• 10:03
  we
• 10:04
  bring
• 10:04
  the
• 10:05
  entirety
• 10:05
  of
• 10:06
  who
• 10:06
  we
• 10:06
  are
• 10:06
  into
• 10:07
  worship.
• 10:07
  We're
• 10:08
  not
• 10:08
  just
• 10:09
  trying
• 10:09
  to
• 10:09
  create
• 10:09
  a
• 10:10
  cohesive
• 10:11
  space.
• 10:11
  Right.
• 10:12
  But
• 10:12
  there's.
• 10:13
  There's
• 10:13
  space
• 10:13
  for
• 10:14
  us
• 10:14
  to
• 10:14
  share
• 10:14
  what
• 10:14
  it
• 10:15
  is
• 10:15
  that
• 10:15
  we
• 10:15
  believe
• 10:15
  or
• 10:16
  to
• 10:16
  share
• 10:16
  our
• 10:16
  experiences
• 10:17
  or
• 10:17
  to
• 10:17
  share
• 10:18
  our
• 10:18
  pains
• 10:18
  or
• 10:19
  the
• 10:19
  things
• 10:19
  that
• 10:20
  we're
• 10:20
  going
• 10:20
  through
• 10:21
  at
• 10:21
  the
• 10:21
  moment.
• 10:22
  One
• 10:23
  of
• 10:23
  the
• 10:23
  things
• 10:23
  that
• 10:23
  I
• 10:24
  love
• 10:24
  so
• 10:24
  much
• 10:24
  about
• 10:25
  cosplay
• 10:25
  is
• 10:25
  it
• 10:26
  is
• 10:26
  a
• 10:26
  chance
• 10:27
  to.
• 10:28
  To
• 10:29
  really
• 10:29
  lean
• 10:29
  into
• 10:30
  what
• 10:30
  it
• 10:30
  is
• 10:31
  that
• 10:31
  you
• 10:31
  love.
• 10:32
  Right.
• 10:32
  Or
• 10:33
  to
• 10:33
  express
• 10:33
  yourself
• 10:34
  in
• 10:34
  a
• 10:34
  different
• 10:35
  way
• 10:36
  through
• 10:36
  costuming,
• 10:37
  through
• 10:38
  whatever
• 10:38
  it
• 10:38
  is
• 10:38
  that
• 10:39
  you
• 10:39
  may
• 10:39
  do
• 10:40
  to
• 10:40
  cosplay.
• 10:41
  And
• 10:41
  we
• 10:41
  have
• 10:41
  this
• 10:42
  conversation
• 10:42
  in
• 10:43
  the
• 10:43
  church
• 10:43
  a
• 10:43
  lot
• 10:43
  about
• 10:44
  the
• 10:44
  imago
• 10:45
  dei,
• 10:45
  dei,
• 10:46
  and
• 10:47
  how
• 10:47
  what
• 10:47
  it
• 10:48
  means
• 10:48
  to
• 10:48
  have
• 10:48
  the
• 10:49
  image
• 10:49
  of
• 10:49
  God
• 10:50
  within
• 10:50
  us.
• 10:51
  And
• 10:52
  being
• 10:52
  made
• 10:52
  in
• 10:52
  the
• 10:52
  image
• 10:53
  of
• 10:53
  God
• 10:53
  includes
• 10:54
  creativity,
• 10:54
  imagination,
• 10:55
  and
• 10:56
  identity.
• 10:57
  So
• 10:57
  if
• 10:57
  Comic
• 10:58
  Cons
• 10:58
  celebrate
• 10:59
  individuality,
• 11:00
  why
• 11:01
  does
• 11:01
  the
• 11:01
  church
• 11:01
  often
• 11:02
  seem
• 11:02
  suspicious
• 11:03
  of
• 11:03
  it?
• 11:04
  Yeah.
• 11:05
  Yeah.
• 11:05
  I
• 11:05
  think
• 11:05
  it
• 11:05
  would
• 11:06
  be
• 11:06
  so
• 11:06
  fun
• 11:06
  if
• 11:07
  people
• 11:07
  came
• 11:07
  to
• 11:08
  church
• 11:09
  just
• 11:09
  dressed
• 11:09
  like
• 11:10
  wise
• 11:10
  men.
• 11:12
  Like,
• 11:12
  if
• 11:12
  everyone
• 11:12
  just
• 11:13
  came
• 11:13
  to
• 11:13
  church,
• 11:13
  like
• 11:13
  their
• 11:13
  linen
• 11:14
  robe,
• 11:14
  you
• 11:14
  know,
• 11:15
  whatever
• 11:15
  they
• 11:15
  have
• 11:16
  made
• 11:16
  out
• 11:16
  of
• 11:16
  like,
• 11:16
  one
• 11:17
  material.
• 11:18
  I
• 11:18
  think
• 11:18
  that
• 11:19
  would
• 11:19
  be
• 11:19
  a
• 11:19
  lot
• 11:19
  of
• 11:19
  fun
• 11:20
  and
• 11:20
  not
• 11:20
  detract
• 11:21
  from
• 11:21
  the
• 11:22
  church.
• 11:22
  I
• 11:22
  feel
• 11:23
  like
• 11:23
  that's
• 11:23
  what
• 11:23
  a
• 11:24
  lot
• 11:24
  of
• 11:24
  people
• 11:24
  are
• 11:24
  afraid
• 11:24
  of.
• 11:25
  Like,
• 11:25
  they
• 11:25
  think
• 11:26
  if
• 11:26
  they
• 11:26
  are
• 11:27
  to
• 11:27
  themselves,
• 11:27
  they're
• 11:28
  going
• 11:28
  to
• 11:28
  distract
• 11:28
  people
• 11:29
  from
• 11:29
  God.
• 11:30
  Mm.
• 11:31
  That's
• 11:31
  not
• 11:31
  how
• 11:31
  that
• 11:32
  works.
• 11:32
  For
• 11:33
  sure.
• 11:33
  That's
• 11:33
  not
• 11:33
  how
• 11:34
  that
• 11:34
  works.
• 11:34
  People
• 11:36
  often,
• 11:36
  I'll
• 11:36
  find,
• 11:38
  are
• 11:38
  going
• 11:38
  to
• 11:38
  church
• 11:39
  just
• 11:39
  because,
• 11:40
  like,
• 11:40
  they're
• 11:41
  supposed
• 11:41
  to,
• 11:42
  and
• 11:42
  they're
• 11:42
  not
• 11:42
  going
• 11:43
  because,
• 11:44
  you
• 11:44
  know,
• 11:44
  they
• 11:44
  want
• 11:44
  to
• 11:44
  be
• 11:45
  in
• 11:45
  the
• 11:45
  church.
• 11:46
  They're
• 11:46
  going
• 11:46
  because
• 11:47
  people
• 11:47
  expect
• 11:47
  them
• 11:47
  to
• 11:47
  be
• 11:47
  in
• 11:47
  the
• 11:48
  church.
• 11:48
  Not
• 11:48
  saying
• 11:49
  you
• 11:49
  shouldn't
• 11:49
  be
• 11:49
  in
• 11:50
  the
• 11:50
  church,
• 11:50
  but
• 11:51
  I
• 11:51
  am
• 11:51
  saying
• 11:52
  you
• 11:52
  should
• 11:52
  probably
• 11:52
  go
• 11:52
  to
• 11:53
  one
• 11:53
  where
• 11:53
  it
• 11:53
  feels
• 11:53
  like
• 11:54
  you
• 11:54
  belong
• 11:55
  and
• 11:55
  you
• 11:55
  want
• 11:55
  to
• 11:56
  be
• 11:56
  there.
• 11:57
  Yeah.
• 11:58
  It's
• 11:58
  been
• 11:58
  interesting
• 11:59
  where
• 11:59
  I
• 12:00
  serve
• 12:00
  at
• 12:00
  Lewisburg
• 12:01
  College.
• 12:01
  You
• 12:01
  know,
• 12:01
  I'm
• 12:02
  the
• 12:02
  chaplain
• 12:02
  there.
• 12:02
  And
• 12:03
  it's
• 12:03
  always
• 12:03
  funny
• 12:03
  to
• 12:04
  me
• 12:04
  when
• 12:04
  we
• 12:04
  start
• 12:04
  the
• 12:04
  semester,
• 12:05
  I
• 12:06
  have
• 12:06
  students
• 12:06
  that
• 12:07
  are
• 12:07
  like,
• 12:07
  I
• 12:08
  didn't
• 12:08
  know
• 12:08
  that
• 12:08
  a
• 12:08
  pastor
• 12:09
  could
• 12:09
  have
• 12:09
  tattoos
• 12:10
  or
• 12:11
  that
• 12:11
  it
• 12:11
  was
• 12:11
  okay
• 12:12
  for
• 12:12
  a
• 12:12
  Christian
• 12:12
  to
• 12:12
  play
• 12:13
  Call
• 12:13
  of
• 12:13
  Duty
• 12:13
  or,
• 12:15
  you
• 12:15
  know,
• 12:15
  all
• 12:16
  of
• 12:16
  those
• 12:16
  sorts
• 12:16
  of
• 12:16
  things.
• 12:17
  They'll
• 12:17
  ask
• 12:17
  me
• 12:17
  those
• 12:17
  kind
• 12:18
  of
• 12:18
  questions,
• 12:18
  you
• 12:18
  know,
• 12:18
  is
• 12:19
  it
• 12:19
  okay
• 12:19
  for
• 12:19
  me
• 12:20
  to
• 12:20
  be
• 12:20
  a
• 12:20
  believer
• 12:21
  and
• 12:21
  play
• 12:22
  Fortnite?
• 12:22
  You
• 12:23
  know,
• 12:23
  and.
• 12:23
  And
• 12:24
  I
• 12:24
  think
• 12:24
  in
• 12:24
  church,
• 12:25
  we
• 12:25
  don't
• 12:25
  talk
• 12:25
  about
• 12:25
  those
• 12:26
  things
• 12:26
  enough
• 12:26
  to
• 12:26
  give
• 12:27
  people
• 12:27
  space,
• 12:27
  to
• 12:27
  realize,
• 12:28
  yes,
• 12:28
  it's
• 12:28
  okay
• 12:29
  to
• 12:29
  be
• 12:29
  a
• 12:29
  human
• 12:29
  being
• 12:30
  that
• 12:30
  is.
• 12:31
  That
• 12:31
  has
• 12:32
  things
• 12:32
  that
• 12:32
  you
• 12:32
  love
• 12:33
  and
• 12:33
  things
• 12:33
  that
• 12:33
  you
• 12:33
  participate
• 12:34
  in.
• 12:35
  I
• 12:35
  did
• 12:35
  a
• 12:36
  whole
• 12:36
  sermon
• 12:36
  series
• 12:36
  once
• 12:37
  on
• 12:37
  Star
• 12:38
  wars,
• 12:38
  and
• 12:38
  there
• 12:38
  were
• 12:38
  some
• 12:39
  people
• 12:39
  that
• 12:39
  were
• 12:39
  like,
• 12:39
  can
• 12:40
  we
• 12:40
  please
• 12:40
  stop
• 12:40
  talking
• 12:40
  about
• 12:41
  Star
• 12:41
  wars
• 12:41
  in
• 12:41
  church?
• 12:42
  Because
• 12:42
  you're
• 12:42
  obsessed
• 12:42
  with
• 12:43
  it.
• 12:43
  Chill
• 12:43
  out.
• 12:44
  But
• 12:45
  there
• 12:45
  were
• 12:45
  other
• 12:45
  people
• 12:46
  who
• 12:46
  were
• 12:46
  like,
• 12:46
  wow,
• 12:47
  I
• 12:47
  didn't
• 12:47
  realize
• 12:48
  there
• 12:48
  were
• 12:48
  so
• 12:48
  many
• 12:48
  connections
• 12:49
  between
• 12:49
  Star
• 12:49
  wars
• 12:50
  and
• 12:50
  the
• 12:50
  gospel
• 12:51
  and
• 12:51
  this
• 12:51
  image
• 12:52
  of
• 12:52
  light
• 12:52
  and
• 12:53
  dark
• 12:53
  and
• 12:53
  how
• 12:53
  do
• 12:53
  those
• 12:54
  things
• 12:54
  tie
• 12:54
  together?
• 12:54
  Yeah,
• 12:55
  we
• 12:55
  had
• 12:55
  one
• 12:56
  of
• 12:56
  those.
• 12:57
  One
• 12:57
  of
• 12:57
  the
• 12:57
  pastors
• 12:57
  we've
• 12:57
  had
• 12:58
  at
• 12:58
  our
• 12:58
  church
• 12:58
  in
• 12:58
  the
• 12:58
  past
• 13:00
  was
• 13:01
  great.
• 13:01
  All
• 13:01
  the
• 13:01
  kids
• 13:01
  loved
• 13:02
  him.
• 13:02
  He
• 13:02
  was.
• 13:03
  Because
• 13:03
  he
• 13:03
  was
• 13:03
  the
• 13:03
  youth
• 13:04
  pastor,
• 13:04
  but
• 13:04
  he
• 13:04
  was
• 13:04
  also
• 13:05
  the
• 13:05
  associate
• 13:05
  pastor.
• 13:06
  You
• 13:06
  know
• 13:06
  how
• 13:06
  that
• 13:06
  goes.
• 13:07
  And
• 13:08
  small
• 13:08
  church
• 13:08
  business.
• 13:10
  But
• 13:11
  one
• 13:11
  day
• 13:12
  he
• 13:13
  was
• 13:13
  in
• 13:13
  charge
• 13:13
  Sunday
• 13:13
  morning,
• 13:14
  and
• 13:14
  he
• 13:14
  did
• 13:14
  a
• 13:14
  Lord
• 13:15
  of
• 13:15
  the
• 13:15
  Rings
• 13:15
  sermon.
• 13:16
  And
• 13:17
  all
• 13:17
  of
• 13:17
  the
• 13:17
  older
• 13:18
  members
• 13:18
  of
• 13:18
  the
• 13:18
  church
• 13:18
  was
• 13:18
  like,
• 13:19
  yeah,
• 13:19
  we
• 13:19
  got
• 13:19
  to
• 13:19
  get
• 13:19
  rid
• 13:20
  of
• 13:20
  him.
• 13:20
  Got
• 13:20
  to
• 13:20
  get
• 13:21
  rid
• 13:21
  of
• 13:21
  him.
• 13:21
  Even
• 13:22
  though,
• 13:23
  you
• 13:23
  know,
• 13:23
  it's
• 13:23
  Lord
• 13:24
  of
• 13:24
  the
• 13:24
  Rings.
• 13:24
  So,
• 13:25
  like,
• 13:25
  it's
• 13:26
  pretty
• 13:26
  much
• 13:26
  just
• 13:26
  the
• 13:26
  Bible.
• 13:29
  They
• 13:29
  got
• 13:29
  rid
• 13:29
  of
• 13:29
  it.
• 13:30
  They
• 13:30
  voted
• 13:30
  them
• 13:30
  out.
• 13:31
  So
• 13:31
  the
• 13:32
  church
• 13:32
  has
• 13:32
  declined
• 13:32
  a
• 13:33
  bit
• 13:33
  since
• 13:33
  then.
• 13:34
  A
• 13:34
  little
• 13:34
  bit.
• 13:35
  It's
• 13:35
  so
• 13:35
  crazy.
• 13:36
  Because
• 13:36
  when
• 13:36
  you
• 13:36
  hear
• 13:37
  about
• 13:37
  those
• 13:37
  things
• 13:37
  happening,
• 13:38
  you
• 13:38
  just
• 13:38
  wonder,
• 13:39
  did
• 13:39
  you
• 13:39
  really
• 13:40
  listen
• 13:40
  to
• 13:40
  what
• 13:40
  the
• 13:41
  sermon
• 13:41
  had
• 13:41
  to
• 13:41
  say,
• 13:42
  or
• 13:42
  was
• 13:42
  it
• 13:42
  just
• 13:43
  you
• 13:43
  heard
• 13:43
  the
• 13:43
  title
• 13:44
  and
• 13:44
  you're
• 13:44
  like,
• 13:44
  nope,
• 13:44
  this
• 13:45
  isn't
• 13:45
  for
• 13:45
  us.
• 13:46
  They're
• 13:47
  just
• 13:47
  like,
• 13:47
  oh,
• 13:47
  magic.
• 13:48
  Don't
• 13:48
  like
• 13:49
  magic.
• 13:50
  Let
• 13:50
  me
• 13:50
  tell
• 13:50
  you
• 13:51
  about
• 13:51
  a
• 13:51
  story
• 13:51
  where
• 13:51
  Jesus
• 13:52
  turned
• 13:52
  water
• 13:52
  into
• 13:52
  wine.
• 13:54
  And
• 13:54
  I'm
• 13:54
  not
• 13:54
  saying
• 13:55
  it's
• 13:55
  magic.
• 13:55
  I'm
• 13:55
  just
• 13:56
  saying
• 13:56
  there
• 13:57
  are
• 13:57
  similarities
• 13:57
  in
• 13:58
  how
• 13:58
  these
• 13:58
  things
• 13:59
  play
• 13:59
  out.
• 13:59
  Right.
• 14:00
  You
• 14:01
  know,
• 14:01
  what
• 14:02
  if
• 14:02
  we
• 14:02
  didn't
• 14:02
  get
• 14:03
  so
• 14:03
  stuck.
• 14:03
  I
• 14:04
  think
• 14:04
  that's
• 14:04
  what
• 14:04
  happens,
• 14:05
  is
• 14:05
  we
• 14:05
  get
• 14:05
  so
• 14:06
  stuck
• 14:06
  on
• 14:06
  semantics
• 14:07
  and
• 14:07
  on
• 14:07
  these
• 14:07
  things
• 14:07
  that
• 14:08
  we
• 14:08
  refuse
• 14:08
  to
• 14:08
  see
• 14:09
  that
• 14:09
  Jesus
• 14:09
  spoke
• 14:10
  in
• 14:10
  parables.
• 14:10
  Right.
• 14:11
  So
• 14:12
  why
• 14:12
  not
• 14:12
  take
• 14:12
  all
• 14:12
  these
• 14:13
  parables
• 14:13
  and
• 14:13
  these
• 14:13
  stories
• 14:14
  that
• 14:14
  are
• 14:14
  out
• 14:14
  in
• 14:14
  the
• 14:14
  world
• 14:15
  and
• 14:15
  remind
• 14:15
  ourselves
• 14:15
  that
• 14:16
  the
• 14:16
  gospel
• 14:16
  can
• 14:16
  find
• 14:17
  its
• 14:17
  way
• 14:17
  into
• 14:17
  a
• 14:18
  lot
• 14:18
  of
• 14:18
  things
• 14:19
  if
• 14:19
  we
• 14:19
  just
• 14:20
  take
• 14:20
  the
• 14:20
  time
• 14:20
  to
• 14:20
  pay
• 14:21
  attention
• 14:21
  to
• 14:21
  it?
• 14:21
  Yeah.
• 14:22
  And
• 14:22
  it's.
• 14:24
  A
• 14:24
  lot
• 14:24
  of.
• 14:24
  It
• 14:25
  just
• 14:25
  feels
• 14:25
  like
• 14:25
  the
• 14:25
  church
• 14:25
  can
• 14:25
  be
• 14:26
  stuffy,
• 14:26
  like
• 14:27
  you're
• 14:27
  not
• 14:27
  supposed
• 14:27
  to
• 14:27
  express
• 14:28
  yourself.
• 14:28
  Absolutely.
• 14:30
  That's
• 14:30
  more
• 14:30
  of
• 14:30
  a
• 14:30
  cultural
• 14:31
  thing
• 14:31
  that's
• 14:32
  kind
• 14:32
  of
• 14:32
  difficult
• 14:33
  to
• 14:33
  fix.
• 14:33
  But
• 14:34
  wouldn't
• 14:34
  it
• 14:34
  be
• 14:34
  nice
• 14:34
  if
• 14:35
  walking
• 14:35
  into
• 14:35
  church
• 14:36
  felt
• 14:36
  like
• 14:36
  walking
• 14:36
  into
• 14:36
  galaxycon?
• 14:37
  Yeah.
• 14:38
  Yeah.
• 14:38
  You
• 14:38
  know,
• 14:39
  what
• 14:39
  if
• 14:39
  the
• 14:39
  organist
• 14:39
  saw
• 14:40
  you
• 14:40
  and
• 14:40
  they're
• 14:40
  like,
• 14:40
  you're
• 14:41
  wearing
• 14:41
  a
• 14:41
  Zelda
• 14:41
  shirt.
• 14:41
  Let
• 14:42
  me
• 14:42
  play
• 14:43
  the
• 14:43
  intro
• 14:43
  music
• 14:44
  for
• 14:44
  you.
• 14:44
  On
• 14:45
  the
• 14:45
  organization.
• 14:46
  Here's
• 14:46
  great.
• 14:46
  Fairy
• 14:46
  fountain.
• 14:48
  Read
• 14:49
  John
• 14:49
  3:16.
• 14:50
  I
• 14:51
  love
• 14:51
  it.
• 14:51
  That's
• 14:51
  great.
• 14:53
  It
• 14:53
  just.
• 14:54
  It
• 14:54
  does
• 14:55
  feel
• 14:55
  that.
• 14:55
  That
• 14:55
  pressure
• 14:56
  to,
• 14:56
  like,
• 14:57
  be
• 14:58
  dressed
• 14:58
  up
• 14:59
  in,
• 14:59
  like,
• 14:59
  a
• 15:00
  specific
• 15:01
  way.
• 15:02
  Like,
• 15:02
  you
• 15:03
  know,
• 15:03
  I
• 15:03
  don't
• 15:03
  know
• 15:03
  how
• 15:04
  the
• 15:04
  church
• 15:04
  uniform
• 15:05
  became
• 15:05
  business
• 15:05
  casual.
• 15:07
  No,
• 15:08
  no.
• 15:08
  If
• 15:08
  that
• 15:08
  was
• 15:09
  a
• 15:09
  little
• 15:09
  different,
• 15:09
  maybe
• 15:09
  people
• 15:10
  would
• 15:10
  be
• 15:10
  a
• 15:10
  lot
• 15:10
  more
• 15:10
  comfortable.
• 15:12
  Yeah.
• 15:12
  It's
• 15:12
  funny,
• 15:13
  I've.
• 15:13
  Now
• 15:14
  that
• 15:14
  I'm
• 15:15
  not
• 15:15
  working
• 15:16
  as
• 15:16
  a
• 15:16
  pastor
• 15:17
  on
• 15:17
  Sunday
• 15:17
  mornings,
• 15:17
  I'm
• 15:18
  just
• 15:18
  pastoring
• 15:18
  at
• 15:18
  a
• 15:18
  school
• 15:19
  on
• 15:19
  Sundays.
• 15:19
  I
• 15:19
  go
• 15:20
  to
• 15:20
  church
• 15:20
  with
• 15:20
  my
• 15:20
  husband
• 15:20
  now,
• 15:21
  which
• 15:22
  is
• 15:22
  weird
• 15:22
  because
• 15:22
  we're
• 15:23
  both
• 15:23
  pastors,
• 15:23
  so
• 15:23
  we
• 15:23
  haven't
• 15:24
  always
• 15:24
  been
• 15:24
  able
• 15:24
  to
• 15:25
  do
• 15:25
  that.
• 15:26
  So
• 15:26
  I
• 15:26
  did
• 15:26
  the
• 15:26
  preacher
• 15:27
  wife
• 15:27
  thing
• 15:27
  and
• 15:28
  I
• 15:28
  joined
• 15:28
  the
• 15:28
  choir.
• 15:29
  So
• 15:29
  my
• 15:30
  problem
• 15:30
  is
• 15:31
  I
• 15:31
  have
• 15:31
  to
• 15:31
  dress
• 15:31
  up
• 15:32
  every
• 15:32
  day
• 15:32
  of
• 15:33
  the
• 15:33
  week,
• 15:33
  and
• 15:33
  Sunday
• 15:34
  is
• 15:34
  the
• 15:34
  only
• 15:34
  day
• 15:35
  I
• 15:35
  can
• 15:35
  wear
• 15:36
  jeans.
• 15:37
  So
• 15:37
  you
• 15:37
  better
• 15:37
  believe
• 15:37
  on
• 15:38
  Sunday,
• 15:38
  I'm
• 15:38
  rolling
• 15:39
  into
• 15:39
  the
• 15:39
  church
• 15:40
  in
• 15:40
  jeans,
• 15:41
  which
• 15:42
  I
• 15:42
  wouldn't
• 15:42
  have
• 15:42
  done
• 15:42
  before
• 15:43
  as
• 15:43
  the
• 15:44
  pastor,
• 15:44
  because
• 15:45
  it's
• 15:45
  like,
• 15:45
  well,
• 15:46
  you
• 15:46
  know,
• 15:46
  is
• 15:46
  that
• 15:46
  going
• 15:47
  to
• 15:47
  distract
• 15:47
  people
• 15:47
  or
• 15:48
  make
• 15:48
  somebody
• 15:48
  uncomfortable?
• 15:49
  But
• 15:49
  for
• 15:49
  me,
• 15:49
  I'm
• 15:49
  like,
• 15:50
  I
• 15:50
  feel
• 15:50
  like
• 15:51
  Jesus
• 15:51
  would
• 15:51
  be
• 15:52
  okay
• 15:52
  with
• 15:52
  me
• 15:52
  wearing
• 15:53
  my
• 15:53
  jeans
• 15:53
  so
• 15:54
  that
• 15:54
  I
• 15:54
  could
• 15:54
  be
• 15:54
  comfortable
• 15:56
  and
• 15:56
  enjoy
• 15:57
  where
• 15:57
  I
• 15:57
  am
• 15:57
  on
• 15:58
  Sunday.
• 15:58
  Mornings
• 15:58
  is
• 15:58
  the
• 15:59
  one
• 15:59
  day
• 15:59
  I
• 15:59
  can
• 15:59
  be
• 15:59
  myself
• 16:00
  and
• 16:00
  not
• 16:01
  have
• 16:02
  to
• 16:02
  be
• 16:02
  dressed
• 16:02
  up
• 16:02
  or
• 16:03
  looking
• 16:03
  a
• 16:03
  certain
• 16:03
  way.
• 16:04
  Yeah.
• 16:04
  And
• 16:04
  that's
• 16:05
  another
• 16:05
  thing
• 16:06
  I.
• 16:07
  You
• 16:07
  know,
• 16:07
  the
• 16:07
  Bible
• 16:07
  does
• 16:07
  say
• 16:07
  to
• 16:08
  be
• 16:08
  respectful
• 16:08
  of
• 16:08
  the
• 16:08
  people
• 16:08
  around
• 16:09
  you.
• 16:09
  And
• 16:09
  a
• 16:10
  lot
• 16:10
  of
• 16:10
  the
• 16:10
  older
• 16:10
  people
• 16:10
  in
• 16:11
  our
• 16:11
  churches,
• 16:12
  you
• 16:12
  know,
• 16:12
  find
• 16:13
  it
• 16:13
  disrespectful
• 16:14
  to
• 16:14
  not
• 16:14
  be
• 16:14
  dressed
• 16:14
  up
• 16:15
  at
• 16:15
  church.
• 16:16
  So
• 16:16
  I
• 16:16
  understand
• 16:17
  it,
• 16:17
  too.
• 16:18
  And
• 16:18
  that's
• 16:18
  just,
• 16:19
  again,
• 16:19
  a
• 16:19
  cultural
• 16:20
  thing.
• 17:17
  For
• 17:17
  sure.
• 17:18
  For
• 17:18
  sure.
• 17:20
  I
• 17:20
  remember
• 17:20
  in
• 17:20
  Still
• 17:21
  Magnolia,
• 17:21
  there's
• 17:22
  a
• 17:22
  line
• 17:22
  where
• 17:22
  Dolly
• 17:22
  Parton
• 17:23
  says,
• 17:23
  God
• 17:23
  doesn't
• 17:24
  care
• 17:24
  what
• 17:24
  you
• 17:24
  wear
• 17:24
  as
• 17:24
  long
• 17:25
  as
• 17:25
  you
• 17:25
  show
• 17:25
  up.
• 17:25
  Right.
• 17:26
  But
• 17:27
  it
• 17:27
  is
• 17:27
  hard
• 17:27
  because
• 17:28
  especially
• 17:28
  when
• 17:28
  you
• 17:28
  are
• 17:29
  brought
• 17:29
  up
• 17:29
  a
• 17:29
  certain
• 17:30
  way,
• 17:30
  to
• 17:30
  see
• 17:31
  that
• 17:31
  shift
• 17:31
  can
• 17:32
  feel
• 17:32
  like
• 17:33
  it
• 17:33
  comes
• 17:33
  from
• 17:33
  a
• 17:34
  place
• 17:34
  of
• 17:34
  disrespect.
• 17:35
  Or
• 17:35
  we
• 17:36
  could
• 17:36
  see,
• 17:36
  hey,
• 17:37
  people
• 17:37
  are
• 17:38
  feeling
• 17:38
  at
• 17:38
  home
• 17:38
  and
• 17:39
  more
• 17:39
  comfortable
• 17:39
  here,
• 17:40
  which
• 17:40
  is
• 17:40
  always
• 17:41
  a
• 17:41
  good
• 17:41
  thing,
• 17:42
  Right?
• 17:43
  So
• 17:43
  what
• 17:43
  if
• 17:44
  churches
• 17:45
  had
• 17:46
  cosplay
• 17:46
  Sundays?
• 17:47
  And
• 17:47
  I
• 17:47
  don't
• 17:48
  mean,
• 17:48
  y'
• 17:48
  all
• 17:49
  trunk
• 17:49
  or
• 17:49
  Treat
• 17:50
  when
• 17:50
  we
• 17:50
  tell
• 17:50
  everybody
• 17:50
  to
• 17:50
  dress
• 17:51
  up
• 17:51
  as
• 17:51
  a
• 17:51
  Bible
• 17:51
  character
• 17:52
  at
• 17:52
  Trunk
• 17:52
  or
• 17:52
  Treat,
• 17:53
  but
• 17:53
  I
• 17:53
  mean,
• 17:53
  what
• 17:54
  if
• 17:54
  churches
• 17:54
  had
• 17:55
  full
• 17:55
  on
• 17:55
  cosplay
• 17:57
  Sundays
• 17:57
  where
• 17:58
  you
• 17:58
  came
• 17:58
  as
• 17:58
  your
• 17:58
  favorite
• 17:58
  character?
• 17:59
  Who
• 17:59
  would
• 18:00
  you
• 18:00
  dress
• 18:00
  up
• 18:00
  as?
• 18:02
  That's
• 18:03
  hard.
• 18:04
  I
• 18:04
  don't
• 18:04
  know.
• 18:04
  It
• 18:05
  would
• 18:05
  be
• 18:05
  expensive
• 18:05
  because
• 18:06
  I
• 18:06
  don't
• 18:06
  like
• 18:06
  to
• 18:07
  do
• 18:07
  things
• 18:07
  cheaply.
• 18:08
  But
• 18:09
  Corvo
• 18:10
  Attano
• 18:11
  from
• 18:11
  Dishonored,
• 18:12
  most
• 18:12
  of
• 18:13
  it
• 18:13
  would
• 18:13
  be
• 18:13
  really
• 18:13
  cheap.
• 18:13
  But
• 18:14
  I
• 18:14
  want
• 18:14
  the
• 18:14
  mask
• 18:14
  to
• 18:14
  be,
• 18:15
  like,
• 18:15
  functional.
• 18:16
  So
• 18:17
  probably
• 18:17
  Corvo.
• 18:18
  And
• 18:18
  that
• 18:19
  would.
• 18:19
  I
• 18:19
  would
• 18:19
  understand
• 18:20
  if
• 18:20
  I
• 18:20
  got
• 18:20
  some
• 18:20
  looks
• 18:21
  for
• 18:21
  that
• 18:21
  on
• 18:21
  a
• 18:21
  Sunday.
• 18:22
  But
• 18:23
  that's
• 18:24
  the
• 18:24
  kind
• 18:24
  of
• 18:24
  thing
• 18:24
  like,
• 18:24
  church
• 18:25
  is
• 18:25
  just
• 18:25
  for
• 18:25
  you
• 18:26
  being
• 18:26
  yourself.
• 18:26
  I
• 18:26
  think
• 18:26
  it'd
• 18:27
  be
• 18:27
  super
• 18:27
  fun
• 18:27
  to
• 18:28
  be
• 18:28
  in
• 18:28
  cosplay,
• 18:29
  you
• 18:29
  know,
• 18:29
  talk
• 18:30
  about
• 18:30
  it
• 18:30
  for
• 18:30
  10
• 18:30
  minutes
• 18:31
  before
• 18:31
  the
• 18:32
  sermon
• 18:32
  starts.
• 18:32
  And
• 18:32
  then
• 18:33
  do
• 18:33
  church.
• 18:33
  Yeah.
• 18:34
  And
• 18:34
  then
• 18:34
  everyone
• 18:34
  does
• 18:35
  fellowship
• 18:35
  and
• 18:35
  they're
• 18:35
  in
• 18:36
  their
• 18:36
  costume,
• 18:36
  I
• 18:37
  think
• 18:37
  that
• 18:37
  kind
• 18:37
  of
• 18:38
  thing.
• 18:38
  Yeah.
• 18:39
  You
• 18:39
  could
• 18:39
  probably
• 18:39
  get
• 18:40
  away
• 18:40
  with
• 18:40
  that
• 18:40
  in
• 18:40
  a
• 18:40
  bigger
• 18:41
  city.
• 18:42
  That's
• 18:42
  very
• 18:42
  true.
• 18:42
  Not
• 18:43
  for
• 18:43
  me.
• 18:44
  I
• 18:44
  think
• 18:45
  that
• 18:45
  would
• 18:45
  be
• 18:45
  a
• 18:45
  hard,
• 18:45
  hard
• 18:46
  sell
• 18:46
  at
• 18:47
  my
• 18:47
  church.
• 18:48
  But
• 18:48
  that
• 18:48
  would
• 18:48
  be
• 18:49
  super
• 18:49
  fun.
• 18:49
  And,
• 18:50
  you
• 18:50
  know,
• 18:50
  it
• 18:50
  doesn't
• 18:50
  even
• 18:51
  necessarily
• 18:51
  have
• 18:52
  to
• 18:52
  be
• 18:52
  a
• 18:52
  Sunday
• 18:53
  if,
• 18:53
  you
• 18:53
  know,
• 18:53
  we
• 18:53
  could
• 18:54
  take
• 18:54
  baby
• 18:54
  steps
• 18:54
  Wednesday
• 18:55
  night.
• 18:55
  That's
• 18:55
  true.
• 18:56
  Wednesday
• 18:57
  night,
• 18:57
  cosplay.
• 18:58
  But
• 18:58
  eventually,
• 18:59
  cosplay
• 19:00
  Sunday
• 19:00
  I
• 19:00
  could
• 19:01
  see
• 19:01
  happening.
• 19:01
  Yeah.
• 19:02
  Because
• 19:02
  cosplays
• 19:03
  can
• 19:03
  be
• 19:03
  super
• 19:03
  casual.
• 19:06
  I've
• 19:07
  been
• 19:07
  working
• 19:07
  at
• 19:07
  my
• 19:08
  restaurant
• 19:08
  for
• 19:08
  a
• 19:08
  very
• 19:09
  long
• 19:09
  time,
• 19:10
  and
• 19:10
  sometimes
• 19:11
  they
• 19:11
  allow
• 19:11
  us
• 19:11
  to
• 19:11
  dress
• 19:12
  up
• 19:12
  for
• 19:12
  Halloween.
• 19:13
  The
• 19:14
  first
• 19:14
  year
• 19:15
  that
• 19:15
  I
• 19:15
  worked
• 19:16
  for
• 19:16
  Chipotle.
• 19:17
  Just
• 19:17
  gonna
• 19:17
  say
• 19:18
  it.
• 19:18
  Hope
• 19:18
  I
• 19:18
  don't
• 19:18
  get
• 19:18
  fired,
• 19:19
  but
• 19:21
  I
• 19:21
  didn't
• 19:21
  Know
• 19:22
  that.
• 19:22
  So
• 19:22
  I
• 19:22
  just
• 19:23
  bought.
• 19:24
  Wore
• 19:24
  some
• 19:24
  clothes,
• 19:25
  and
• 19:25
  I
• 19:25
  had,
• 19:25
  like,
• 19:26
  a
• 19:26
  beige
• 19:26
  vest
• 19:27
  and
• 19:27
  I
• 19:27
  had
• 19:28
  my
• 19:29
  lab
• 19:30
  goggles
• 19:31
  because
• 19:31
  I
• 19:31
  was
• 19:31
  in
• 19:32
  bio
• 19:32
  lab
• 19:32
  and
• 19:33
  chem
• 19:33
  lab
• 19:33
  that
• 19:33
  year.
• 19:35
  And
• 19:35
  I
• 19:36
  put
• 19:36
  on
• 19:36
  some
• 19:36
  khakis
• 19:37
  and
• 19:37
  some
• 19:37
  nice
• 19:37
  little
• 19:37
  tan
• 19:38
  boots,
• 19:39
  and
• 19:39
  I
• 19:39
  was
• 19:40
  Luke.
• 19:40
  I
• 19:40
  was
• 19:41
  hoth
• 19:41
  Luke
• 19:42
  at
• 19:42
  work
• 19:42
  and
• 19:43
  my
• 19:43
  little
• 19:43
  fuzzy
• 19:43
  hat
• 19:44
  on.
• 19:44
  It
• 19:44
  was
• 19:44
  great,
• 19:45
  and
• 19:45
  it
• 19:45
  was
• 19:46
  ridiculously
• 19:47
  hot,
• 19:47
  but
• 19:47
  it
• 19:47
  was
• 19:47
  worth
• 19:47
  it.
• 19:48
  It
• 19:48
  was
• 19:48
  fun.
• 19:49
  I
• 19:49
  love
• 19:49
  it.
• 19:49
  That'd
• 19:49
  be
• 19:49
  Luke
• 19:50
  Skywalker
• 19:50
  at
• 19:50
  work.
• 19:50
  I
• 19:51
  love
• 19:51
  it.
• 19:51
  But
• 19:52
  it
• 19:52
  might
• 19:52
  have
• 19:52
  been
• 19:53
  hot
• 19:53
  there.
• 19:53
  But
• 19:53
  do
• 19:53
  you
• 19:53
  know
• 19:53
  what
• 19:54
  the
• 19:54
  temperature
• 19:54
  is
• 19:54
  inside
• 19:55
  of
• 19:55
  a
• 19:55
  tauntaun?
• 19:56
  Yeah,
• 19:57
  it's
• 19:57
  lukewarm.
• 19:58
  Honestly,
• 19:58
  probably
• 19:59
  insane.
• 19:59
  It's
• 19:59
  lukewarm.
• 20:00
  It's
• 20:00
  lukewarm.
• 20:00
  Yeah.
• 20:01
  Okay.
• 20:03
  Yeah,
• 20:03
  yeah.
• 20:04
  Anyway,
• 20:05
  so
• 20:05
  cosplay.
• 20:06
  I
• 20:07
  know.
• 20:07
  I
• 20:07
  love
• 20:07
  that,
• 20:08
  though.
• 20:08
  I
• 20:08
  think
• 20:08
  that's.
• 20:09
  It's.
• 20:09
  It's
• 20:10
  so.
• 20:10
  Last
• 20:11
  year
• 20:11
  at
• 20:11
  school,
• 20:12
  I
• 20:12
  was.
• 20:13
  I'm
• 20:13
  just
• 20:13
  used
• 20:13
  to
• 20:14
  Halloween
• 20:14
  being
• 20:14
  a
• 20:15
  big
• 20:15
  thing.
• 20:15
  It's
• 20:15
  my
• 20:15
  favorite
• 20:16
  holiday
• 20:16
  of
• 20:16
  the
• 20:16
  year,
• 20:16
  if
• 20:16
  I'm
• 20:17
  just
• 20:17
  being
• 20:17
  honest,
• 20:18
  which,
• 20:18
  you
• 20:18
  know,
• 20:19
  it's
• 20:19
  just
• 20:19
  a
• 20:19
  fun
• 20:20
  holiday.
• 20:20
  I
• 20:20
  love
• 20:20
  it
• 20:20
  because
• 20:21
  my
• 20:21
  kids
• 20:22
  are
• 20:22
  into
• 20:22
  it.
• 20:22
  We
• 20:23
  have
• 20:23
  traditions
• 20:23
  around
• 20:24
  Halloween.
• 20:25
  And
• 20:25
  so
• 20:26
  last
• 20:26
  year
• 20:26
  at
• 20:27
  school,
• 20:27
  I
• 20:27
  was
• 20:27
  like,
• 20:28
  I'm
• 20:28
  going
• 20:28
  all
• 20:28
  out.
• 20:29
  So
• 20:29
  I
• 20:29
  did
• 20:30
  my
• 20:31
  Mrs.
• 20:31
  Frizzle
• 20:32
  costume,
• 20:33
  did
• 20:33
  the
• 20:33
  hair,
• 20:34
  had
• 20:34
  the
• 20:35
  thing,
• 20:35
  everything,
• 20:36
  and
• 20:37
  showed
• 20:37
  up
• 20:37
  at
• 20:37
  school,
• 20:38
  and
• 20:38
  only
• 20:38
  one
• 20:39
  other
• 20:39
  person
• 20:39
  in
• 20:40
  the
• 20:40
  entire
• 20:40
  campus
• 20:40
  dressed
• 20:41
  up
• 20:41
  that
• 20:41
  day.
• 20:42
  And
• 20:42
  so
• 20:43
  I.
• 20:43
  That's
• 20:43
  tragic.
• 20:44
  Felt
• 20:44
  so
• 20:44
  weird.
• 20:45
  That's
• 20:45
  so
• 20:45
  sad
• 20:46
  day.
• 20:47
  And
• 20:47
  what
• 20:47
  was
• 20:48
  sad,
• 20:48
  though,
• 20:48
  is
• 20:48
  I
• 20:49
  had
• 20:49
  a
• 20:49
  couple
• 20:49
  students
• 20:49
  who
• 20:49
  were
• 20:50
  like,
• 20:50
  Ms.
• 20:50
  Frizzle.
• 20:50
  And
• 20:50
  then
• 20:51
  the
• 20:51
  rest
• 20:51
  of
• 20:51
  my
• 20:51
  students
• 20:52
  were
• 20:52
  like,
• 20:52
  this
• 20:52
  is
• 20:52
  how
• 20:53
  you
• 20:53
  dress
• 20:53
  every
• 20:53
  day.
• 20:54
  So
• 20:54
  we
• 20:54
  didn't
• 20:54
  know.
• 20:57
  So
• 20:57
  that's
• 20:57
  normal,
• 20:57
  right?
• 20:58
  Like,
• 20:58
  this
• 20:58
  is
• 20:58
  just
• 20:58
  what
• 20:59
  you
• 20:59
  look
• 20:59
  like.
• 20:59
  It's
• 21:00
  fine.
• 21:00
  I'm
• 21:00
  like,
• 21:00
  okay,
• 21:01
  well,
• 21:01
  maybe
• 21:02
  that's
• 21:02
  kind
• 21:02
  of
• 21:02
  funny.
• 21:02
  Maybe
• 21:03
  every
• 21:03
  day
• 21:03
  is
• 21:03
  cosplay
• 21:04
  Sunday
• 21:04
  for
• 21:04
  me.
• 21:05
  I
• 21:05
  don't
• 21:05
  know.
• 21:06
  That
• 21:06
  would
• 21:06
  be
• 21:07
  such
• 21:07
  a
• 21:07
  fun
• 21:08
  thing,
• 21:08
  though,
• 21:08
  because
• 21:08
  on
• 21:09
  Halloween,
• 21:09
  like,
• 21:10
  there
• 21:10
  are
• 21:10
  so
• 21:10
  many
• 21:11
  teachers
• 21:11
  and
• 21:12
  media
• 21:12
  that
• 21:12
  you
• 21:12
  could
• 21:12
  be
• 21:12
  on
• 21:13
  Halloween.
• 21:13
  It's
• 21:14
  very
• 21:14
  true.
• 21:14
  Like,
• 21:15
  somebody
• 21:15
  could
• 21:15
  be
• 21:16
  Coach
• 21:16
  Carter.
• 21:16
  Yeah.
• 21:17
  Mr.
• 21:17
  Ratburn.
• 21:19
  Like,
• 21:19
  there's.
• 21:19
  There's
• 21:19
  a
• 21:19
  lot
• 21:20
  you
• 21:20
  could
• 21:20
  do
• 21:20
  there.
• 21:20
  It's
• 21:20
  very
• 21:20
  true.
• 21:21
  Super
• 21:21
  fun.
• 21:22
  Yeah.
• 21:23
  No.
• 21:23
  So
• 21:23
  this
• 21:23
  year,
• 21:24
  as
• 21:24
  I'm
• 21:24
  typing
• 21:24
  up
• 21:25
  my
• 21:25
  syllabi
• 21:25
  for
• 21:25
  the
• 21:25
  fall,
• 21:26
  I'm
• 21:26
  like,
• 21:26
  if
• 21:26
  you
• 21:26
  dress
• 21:27
  up
• 21:27
  on
• 21:27
  Halloween,
• 21:27
  you
• 21:28
  get
• 21:28
  extra
• 21:28
  credit.
• 21:29
  So
• 21:29
  we'll
• 21:29
  see
• 21:29
  if
• 21:30
  anybody
• 21:30
  follows
• 21:31
  that.
• 21:31
  Oh,
• 21:31
  yeah.
• 21:31
  But.
• 21:32
  Oh,
• 21:32
  yeah.
• 21:33
  So
• 21:34
  in
• 21:34
  line
• 21:35
  with
• 21:35
  that,
• 21:35
  thinking
• 21:35
  about
• 21:35
  how
• 21:36
  churches
• 21:37
  could
• 21:37
  be
• 21:37
  more
• 21:38
  like
• 21:38
  a
• 21:38
  con.
• 21:39
  What
• 21:39
  if
• 21:39
  churches
• 21:40
  had
• 21:40
  panels
• 21:41
  instead
• 21:41
  of
• 21:41
  sermons
• 21:42
  with
• 21:42
  a
• 21:42
  Q
• 21:43
  and
• 21:43
  A
• 21:43
  Dialogue.
• 21:44
  Like,
• 21:44
  what
• 21:44
  if
• 21:44
  you
• 21:45
  could
• 21:45
  just
• 21:45
  ask
• 21:45
  questions
• 21:46
  in
• 21:46
  the
• 21:46
  middle.
• 21:47
  Yeah.
• 21:48
  Of
• 21:48
  church?
• 21:49
  How
• 21:49
  cool
• 21:50
  would
• 21:50
  that
• 21:50
  be?
• 21:50
  I
• 21:50
  mean,
• 21:50
  it'd
• 21:51
  be
• 21:51
  terrifying
• 21:51
  as
• 21:52
  a
• 21:52
  pastor,
• 21:52
  but
• 21:52
  how
• 21:53
  cool
• 21:53
  would
• 21:53
  that
• 21:53
  be
• 21:53
  as
• 21:54
  people
• 21:54
  sitting
• 21:55
  in
• 21:55
  the
• 21:55
  pews
• 21:56
  on
• 21:56
  Sunday
• 21:56
  morning?
• 21:57
  Yeah,
• 21:57
  that
• 21:57
  would
• 21:58
  be
• 21:58
  great.
• 21:58
  Because
• 21:58
  it's
• 21:58
  like,
• 21:59
  that's
• 21:59
  something
• 22:00
  that
• 22:00
  we
• 22:01
  in
• 22:01
  the
• 22:01
  church
• 22:01
  reserve
• 22:02
  for,
• 22:02
  like,
• 22:02
  conferences,
• 22:03
  you
• 22:03
  know,
• 22:04
  like,
• 22:04
  it's,
• 22:04
  you
• 22:05
  know,
• 22:05
  once
• 22:05
  a
• 22:05
  year,
• 22:06
  go
• 22:06
  to
• 22:06
  the
• 22:06
  conference
• 22:07
  there.
• 22:07
  You
• 22:07
  can
• 22:07
  ask
• 22:07
  your
• 22:07
  questions.
• 22:09
  It.
• 22:09
  The
• 22:09
  church
• 22:10
  deserves
• 22:10
  to
• 22:10
  be
• 22:11
  more
• 22:11
  than
• 22:11
  that.
• 22:11
  Yeah.
• 22:12
  You
• 22:12
  should
• 22:12
  be
• 22:12
  able
• 22:13
  to
• 22:13
  do
• 22:13
  that
• 22:13
  kind
• 22:13
  of
• 22:14
  thing
• 22:14
  on
• 22:15
  a
• 22:15
  Sunday.
• 22:15
  Maybe
• 22:15
  like,
• 22:16
  you
• 22:16
  know,
• 22:16
  maybe
• 22:16
  not
• 22:17
  every
• 22:17
  Sunday
• 22:17
  at
• 22:18
  first,
• 22:19
  but,
• 22:20
  like,
• 22:20
  if
• 22:20
  you
• 22:20
  have
• 22:21
  a
• 22:21
  question
• 22:21
  about
• 22:21
  the
• 22:21
  sermon,
• 22:22
  you
• 22:22
  should
• 22:22
  be
• 22:22
  able
• 22:22
  to
• 22:22
  ask
• 22:23
  it
• 22:23
  for
• 22:23
  sure.
• 22:24
  You
• 22:24
  know,
• 22:24
  instead
• 22:25
  of
• 22:25
  sitting
• 22:25
  there
• 22:25
  and
• 22:25
  getting
• 22:26
  on
• 22:26
  your
• 22:26
  phone
• 22:26
  and
• 22:26
  being
• 22:26
  like,
• 22:26
  what
• 22:27
  is.
• 22:28
  What
• 22:28
  does
• 22:29
  this
• 22:29
  mean?
• 22:29
  You
• 22:30
  should
• 22:30
  be
• 22:30
  able
• 22:30
  to
• 22:30
  ask
• 22:30
  your
• 22:30
  pastor,
• 22:31
  because
• 22:31
  they
• 22:32
  know,
• 22:32
  they
• 22:32
  did
• 22:32
  the
• 22:32
  research.
• 22:33
  And
• 22:33
  then
• 22:34
  hopefully
• 22:34
  you'd
• 22:34
  have
• 22:35
  those
• 22:35
  few
• 22:36
  people
• 22:36
  that
• 22:36
  are
• 22:36
  like
• 22:37
  the
• 22:37
  ones
• 22:37
  that
• 22:37
  get
• 22:38
  in
• 22:38
  line
• 22:38
  at
• 22:38
  a
• 22:38
  con
• 22:38
  and
• 22:39
  always
• 22:39
  ask
• 22:39
  the
• 22:39
  same
• 22:40
  question.
• 22:40
  What's
• 22:40
  your
• 22:41
  favorite
• 22:41
  flavor
• 22:41
  of
• 22:41
  ice
• 22:42
  cream?
• 22:42
  That
• 22:42
  one
• 22:43
  always
• 22:43
  cracks
• 22:43
  me
• 22:43
  up.
• 22:43
  You'll
• 22:44
  be
• 22:44
  in
• 22:44
  the
• 22:44
  midst
• 22:44
  of
• 22:44
  these
• 22:44
  deep
• 22:45
  conversations,
• 22:45
  and
• 22:45
  here
• 22:46
  comes
• 22:46
  that
• 22:46
  one
• 22:46
  person
• 22:47
  with
• 22:47
  their
• 22:47
  question
• 22:47
  that
• 22:47
  they
• 22:48
  ask
• 22:48
  at

  What's
• 22:49
  your
• 22:49
  favorite
• 22:49
  flavor
• 22:49
  of
• 22:49
  ice
• 22:50
  cream?
• 22:50
  So
• 22:50
  you
• 22:50
  could
• 22:50
  have
• 22:50
  those
• 22:50
  gimme
• 22:51
  questions.
• 22:51
  Right.
• 22:52
  But
• 22:52
  at
• 22:52
  the
• 22:53
  same
• 22:53
  time,
• 22:54
  I
• 22:54
  mean,
• 22:54
  I
• 22:55
  don't
• 22:55
  think
• 22:55
  get
• 22:55
  up
• 22:55
  and,
• 22:56
  like,
• 22:56
  challenge
• 22:56
  your
• 22:56
  pastor.
• 22:57
  Like,
• 22:57
  what
• 22:58
  were
• 22:58
  you
• 22:58
  thinking
• 22:58
  when
• 22:59
  you
• 22:59
  said,
• 22:59
  but,
• 23:00
  you
• 23:00
  know.
• 23:00
  Right.
• 23:00
  But
• 23:01
  to
• 23:01
  ask,
• 23:01
  like,
• 23:01
  where
• 23:01
  did
• 23:02
  that
• 23:02
  story
• 23:02
  come
• 23:02
  from?
• 23:03
  Or
• 23:03
  you
• 23:03
  talked
• 23:04
  about
• 23:04
  this
• 23:04
  thing
• 23:04
  that
• 23:05
  you
• 23:05
  learned
• 23:05
  in
• 23:05
  this
• 23:06
  movie.
• 23:06
  Tell
• 23:06
  us
• 23:07
  more
• 23:07
  about
• 23:07
  that
• 23:07
  or
• 23:07
  how
• 23:07
  it,
• 23:08
  you
• 23:08
  know,
• 23:08
  how
• 23:08
  you
• 23:09
  found
• 23:09
  that
• 23:09
  image
• 23:10
  or
• 23:10
  how
• 23:10
  can
• 23:10
  we.
• 23:11
  What
• 23:11
  if
• 23:11
  we
• 23:11
  taught
• 23:12
  people
• 23:12
  how
• 23:12
  to
• 23:12
  find
• 23:13
  those
• 23:13
  images?
• 23:14
  And
• 23:14
  in
• 23:14
  movies,
• 23:15
  you
• 23:15
  know,
• 23:15
  how
• 23:15
  do
• 23:16
  you
• 23:16
  see
• 23:16
  God
• 23:16
  in
• 23:16
  every
• 23:17
  movie
• 23:18
  that
• 23:18
  you
• 23:18
  watch
• 23:18
  or
• 23:19
  every
• 23:19
  book
• 23:20
  that
• 23:20
  you
• 23:20
  read?
• 23:21
  And
• 23:21
  if
• 23:21
  we
• 23:21
  taught
• 23:22
  people
• 23:22
  to
• 23:22
  see
• 23:22
  it,
• 23:22
  maybe
• 23:23
  it'll
• 23:23
  be
• 23:23
  less
• 23:23
  scary
• 23:23
  when
• 23:23
  the
• 23:24
  pastor
• 23:24
  talks
• 23:24
  about
• 23:24
  Lord
• 23:25
  of
• 23:25
  the
• 23:25
  Rings
• 23:25
  on
• 23:26
  a
• 23:26
  Sunday
• 23:26
  morning,
• 23:26
  you
• 23:27
  know.
• 23:27
  Yeah.
• 23:28
  And
• 23:28
  that's.
• 23:28
  This
• 23:29
  is
• 23:29
  one
• 23:29
  of
• 23:29
  the
• 23:29
  major
• 23:29
  advantages
• 23:30
  that
• 23:30
  I
• 23:30
  feel
• 23:30
  the
• 23:31
  Catholic
• 23:31
  Church
• 23:31
  has,
• 23:33
  because
• 23:34
  if
• 23:34
  you
• 23:34
  attend
• 23:35
  the
• 23:35
  Catholic
• 23:35
  Church,
• 23:35
  you
• 23:35
  can
• 23:36
  go
• 23:36
  up
• 23:36
  there
• 23:36
  every
• 23:36
  day.
• 23:37
  There's
• 23:37
  something
• 23:37
  going
• 23:38
  on.
• 23:38
  You
• 23:38
  go
• 23:39
  up
• 23:39
  there
• 23:39
  every
• 23:39
  day.
• 23:40
  The
• 23:40
  Catholic
• 23:41
  Church,
• 23:41
  I
• 23:41
  think,
• 23:41
  and,
• 23:42
  you
• 23:42
  know,
• 23:42
  the
• 23:42
  Orthodox
• 23:43
  church
• 23:43
  churches
• 23:44
  have
• 23:45
  kind
• 23:45
  of
• 23:45
  maintained
• 23:46
  that
• 23:46
  sense
• 23:46
  of
• 23:47
  community
• 23:47
  a
• 23:47
  lot
• 23:47
  better
• 23:48
  than,
• 23:49
  you
• 23:49
  know,
• 23:49
  I
• 23:50
  was
• 23:50
  going
• 23:50
  to
• 23:50
  say
• 23:50
  Pentecostal,
• 23:51
  but
• 23:51
  Protestant
• 23:52
  for
• 23:53
  sure.
• 23:53
  I
• 23:53
  feel
• 23:53
  like.
• 23:53
  Feel
• 23:54
  like
• 23:54
  some
• 23:54
  Pentecostal
• 23:54
  churches
• 23:55
  still
• 23:55
  do
• 23:55
  a
• 23:55
  good
• 23:55
  job.
• 23:56
  We
• 23:57
  try,
• 23:58
  but
• 23:58
  I
• 23:59
  feel
• 23:59
  like
• 23:59
  that
• 23:59
  is
• 23:59
  one
• 24:00
  major
• 24:00
  thing
• 24:00
  that
• 24:01
  we
• 24:01
  lost
• 24:02
  During
• 24:03
  Reformation,
• 24:04
  for
• 24:05
  sure.
• 24:05
  Maybe.
• 24:06
  Maybe
• 24:06
  open
• 24:06
  the
• 24:07
  church
• 24:07
  every
• 24:07
  day,
• 24:07
  then
• 24:08
  we
• 24:08
  could.
• 24:08
  Maybe
• 24:08
  we
• 24:08
  could
• 24:08
  afford
• 24:09
  to
• 24:09
  keep
• 24:09
  it
• 24:09
  open
• 24:09
  every
• 24:10
  day
• 24:10
  if
• 24:10
  we
• 24:10
  felt
• 24:11
  like
• 24:11
  a
• 24:11
  real
• 24:11
  community.
• 24:12
  It's
• 24:12
  very
• 24:12
  true.
• 24:13
  Like,
• 24:13
  what
• 24:13
  if
• 24:14
  church,
• 24:15
  you
• 24:16
  know,
• 24:16
  not
• 24:16
  just
• 24:16
  theoretically
• 24:17
  on
• 24:17
  Sundays
• 24:18
  or
• 24:18
  Wednesdays,
• 24:18
  we're
• 24:19
  creating
• 24:19
  this
• 24:19
  space
• 24:20
  of
• 24:20
  community.
• 24:21
  But
• 24:21
  what
• 24:21
  if
• 24:21
  it
• 24:21
  was
• 24:22
  a
• 24:22
  genuine
• 24:22
  space?
• 24:23
  Like,
• 24:23
  you're
• 24:23
  bored,
• 24:23
  show
• 24:24
  up
• 24:24
  and
• 24:24
  play
• 24:24
  cards,
• 24:25
  or,
• 24:26
  you
• 24:26
  know,
• 24:27
  just
• 24:27
  come
• 24:27
  and
• 24:28
  ask
• 24:28
  questions.
• 24:28
  You
• 24:29
  know,
• 24:29
  it's
• 24:29
  a
• 24:29
  space
• 24:29
  that
• 24:30
  you
• 24:30
  can
• 24:30
  actually
• 24:30
  show
• 24:30
  up
• 24:31
  at
• 24:31
  and
• 24:32
  bring
• 24:32
  yourself
• 24:32
  and
• 24:33
  your
• 24:33
  questions
• 24:33
  and
• 24:34
  you.
• 24:34
  You
• 24:34
  know,
• 24:34
  your
• 24:35
  hobbies
• 24:35
  and
• 24:35
  all
• 24:35
  the
• 24:36
  things
• 24:36
  that
• 24:36
  you
• 24:37
  love
• 24:37
  with
• 24:37
  you.
• 24:38
  Yeah.
• 24:38
  Like,
• 24:39
  there's
• 24:39
  a
• 24:39
  church
• 24:40
  in
• 24:40
  my
• 24:40
  hometown
• 24:41
  where
• 24:41
  people
• 24:42
  just
• 24:42
  go
• 24:42
  play
• 24:42
  basketball.
• 24:43
  Does
• 24:43
  the
• 24:44
  pastor
• 24:44
  love
• 24:44
  to
• 24:44
  play
• 24:45
  basketball?
• 24:45
  So,
• 24:45
  yeah,
• 24:46
  it
• 24:46
  would
• 24:46
  be
• 24:46
  there.
• 24:47
  It
• 24:47
  was
• 24:47
  awesome.
• 24:48
  It
• 24:48
  was
• 24:48
  great.
• 24:48
  And
• 24:49
  it
• 24:49
  really
• 24:49
  felt
• 24:49
  like
• 24:49
  being
• 24:50
  a
• 24:50
  part
• 24:50
  of
• 24:50
  the
• 24:50
  community
• 24:50
  because
• 24:51
  you
• 24:51
  just
• 24:51
  meet
• 24:51
  a
• 24:51
  bunch
• 24:52
  of
• 24:52
  people
• 24:52
  that
• 24:52
  live
• 24:52
  in
• 24:52
  the
• 24:53
  town
• 24:53
  that
• 24:53
  you've
• 24:53
  never
• 24:53
  met
• 24:54
  to
• 24:54
  play
• 24:55
  basketball
• 24:55
  at
• 24:56
  a
• 24:56
  church.
• 24:56
  I
• 24:57
  think
• 24:57
  that's
• 24:57
  awesome.
• 24:58
  To
• 24:58
  create
• 24:58
  that
• 24:58
  space
• 24:59
  and
• 24:59
  that
• 24:59
  community.
• 24:59
  It's
• 25:00
  also
• 25:01
  it.
• 25:01
  It
• 25:02
  reminds
• 25:02
  people,
• 25:02
  too,
• 25:03
  that
• 25:03
  your
• 25:03
  pastors
• 25:04
  are
• 25:04
  not
• 25:04
  these
• 25:05
  perfect
• 25:05
  people
• 25:06
  who
• 25:06
  live
• 25:07
  in
• 25:07
  the
• 25:07
  sanctuary.
• 25:08
  And
• 25:08
  it's.
• 25:09
  I
• 25:09
  always
• 25:09
  feel
• 25:10
  like
• 25:10
  people
• 25:10
  see
• 25:10
  pastors,
• 25:11
  like,
• 25:11
  the
• 25:11
  way
• 25:12
  kids
• 25:12
  see
• 25:12
  their
• 25:12
  teachers.
• 25:13
  Like
• 25:13
  when
• 25:13
  they're
• 25:13
  out
• 25:13
  in
• 25:14
  public,
• 25:14
  they're
• 25:14
  like,
• 25:14
  whoa,
• 25:15
  what
• 25:15
  are
• 25:15
  you
• 25:15
  doing
• 25:15
  outside
• 25:15
  of
• 25:16
  the
• 25:16
  church?
• 25:16
  Yeah.
• 25:17
  I
• 25:17
  didn't
• 25:18
  know
• 25:18
  you
• 25:18
  could
• 25:18
  leave
• 25:18
  and
• 25:18
  go
• 25:18
  to
• 25:19
  Target.
• 25:22
  That's
• 25:22
  weird.
• 25:23
  Yeah.
• 25:23
  It's
• 25:23
  crazy.
• 25:24
  I
• 25:24
  don't
• 25:24
  know,
• 25:24
  it
• 25:25
  even
• 25:25
  feels
• 25:25
  a
• 25:25
  little
• 25:26
  odd
• 25:26
  to
• 25:26
  go,
• 25:26
  like,
• 25:27
  with
• 25:27
  your
• 25:27
  pastor
• 25:28
  out
• 25:28
  to
• 25:28
  eat
• 25:28
  after
• 25:28
  church.
• 25:29
  Maybe
• 25:30
  you're
• 25:30
  sitting
• 25:30
  there
• 25:30
  across
• 25:30
  from
• 25:30
  your
• 25:31
  pastor,
• 25:31
  you're
• 25:31
  like,
• 25:31
  huh,
• 25:32
  they
• 25:33
  eat.
• 25:33
  Yeah.
• 25:34
  I
• 25:34
  didn't
• 25:34
  think
• 25:34
  they
• 25:34
  had
• 25:35
  to
• 25:35
  do
• 25:35
  that.
• 25:37
  They
• 25:37
  live
• 25:38
  by
• 25:38
  the
• 25:38
  word
• 25:39
  of
• 25:39
  God.
• 25:39
  Yeah.
• 25:40
  I
• 25:40
  thought
• 25:40
  they
• 25:40
  just
• 25:41
  ate
• 25:41
  pages
• 25:41
  from
• 25:41
  their
• 25:41
  Bibles.
• 25:42
  Yeah.
• 25:43
  That's
• 25:43
  why
• 25:43
  they
• 25:43
  have
• 25:43
  to
• 25:43
  buy
• 25:43
  so
• 25:44
  many.
• 25:44
  Drink
• 25:44
  the
• 25:45
  living
• 25:45
  water.
• 25:45
  Totally
• 25:46
  sustained,
• 25:47
  you
• 25:47
  know?
• 25:47
  Yeah.
• 25:48
  We
• 25:48
  give
• 25:48
  them
• 25:48
  a
• 25:48
  loaf
• 25:48
  of
• 25:49
  bread
• 25:49
  and
• 25:49
  some
• 25:49
  fish
• 25:49
  every
• 25:49
  year.
• 25:50
  They
• 25:50
  eat
• 25:50
  off
• 25:50
  it
• 25:51
  for
• 25:51
  all
• 25:51
  eternity,
• 25:52
  you
• 25:52
  know?
• 25:52
  It's
• 25:52
  great.
• 25:53
  Yeah.
• 25:54
  And
• 25:54
  if
• 25:54
  they
• 25:54
  run
• 25:55
  out,
• 25:55
  they
• 25:55
  eat
• 25:55
  the
• 25:55
  communion
• 25:56
  wafers.
• 25:57
  They
• 25:57
  pace
• 25:57
  themselves
• 25:58
  for
• 25:58
  the.
• 25:58
  For
• 25:58
  the
• 25:58
  communion
• 25:59
  wine.
• 26:01
  That
• 26:02
  sounds
• 26:02
  terrible.
• 26:03
  Could
• 26:04
  you
• 26:04
  imagine?
• 26:06
  That's
• 26:06
  a
• 26:06
  hard
• 26:06
  life.
• 26:07
  Yeah.
• 26:07
  That's
• 26:07
  not
• 26:07
  for
• 26:07
  me.
• 26:08
  Take
• 26:08
  me.
• 26:09
  That's
• 26:09
  a
• 26:09
  hard
• 26:09
  to.
• 26:09
  Chili's.
• 26:10
  And
• 26:10
  let
• 26:10
  me
• 26:10
  get
• 26:10
  those
• 26:11
  mozzarella
• 26:11
  sticks.
• 26:12
  The
• 26:12
  Nashville
• 26:12
  hot
• 26:13
  ones.
• 26:13
  I
• 26:13
  love
• 26:13
  those.
• 26:14
  Oh,
• 26:14
  yeah,
• 26:14
  I
• 26:14
  love
• 26:14
  those.
• 26:14
  They're
• 26:15
  so
• 26:15
  good.
• 26:15
  Delicious.
• 26:16
  Chili's
• 26:17
  is
• 26:17
  great.
• 26:19
  So
• 26:19
  on
• 26:20
  this
• 26:20
  topic,
• 26:21
  what
• 26:22
  if
• 26:23
  spiritual
• 26:24
  practice
• 26:24
  practices
• 26:25
  within
• 26:25
  our
• 26:26
  churches
• 26:26
  or
• 26:26
  within
• 26:27
  our
• 26:27
  communities
• 26:28
  were
• 26:29
  styled
• 26:29
  the
• 26:30
  way
• 26:30
  that
• 26:30
  you
• 26:30
  see
• 26:30
  Artist
• 26:31
  Alleys
• 26:31
  or
• 26:32
  tabletop
• 26:33
  areas
• 26:34
  in
• 26:34
  a
• 26:34
  convention.
• 26:35
  So
• 26:35
  one
• 26:36
  of
• 26:36
  the
• 26:36
  things
• 26:36
  that,
• 26:36
  first
• 26:36
  of
• 26:36
  all,
• 26:37
  galaxycon
• 26:37
  has
• 26:37
  gotten
• 26:38
  huge.
• 26:38
  It
• 26:38
  takes
• 26:38
  up
• 26:38
  all
• 26:39
  of
• 26:39
  this
• 26:39
  space
• 26:39
  in
• 26:39
  downtown
• 26:40
  Raleigh.
• 26:41
  It's
• 26:41
  at
• 26:41
  the
• 26:42
  convention
• 26:42
  center,
• 26:42
  but
• 26:42
  it's
• 26:43
  also
• 26:43
  throughout
• 26:43
  the
• 26:43
  hotels
• 26:44
  and
• 26:44
  stuff
• 26:44
  too.
• 26:45
  So
• 26:45
  one
• 26:45
  of
• 26:46
  the
• 26:46
  things
• 26:46
  I
• 26:46
  love
• 26:46
  is
• 26:47
  usually
• 26:47
  there's
• 26:47
  a
• 26:48
  big
• 26:49
  tabletop
• 26:49
  gaming
• 26:50
  room
• 26:50
  where
• 26:50
  there's
• 26:51
  a
• 26:51
  library
• 26:52
  of
• 26:52
  games.
• 26:52
  But
• 26:52
  then
• 26:52
  people
• 26:53
  also
• 26:53
  just
• 26:53
  show
• 26:53
  up
• 26:54
  with
• 26:54
  their
• 26:54
  games
• 26:55
  and
• 26:55
  sit
• 26:55
  at
• 26:55
  a
• 26:55
  table
• 26:56
  until
• 26:56
  someone
• 26:56
  shows
• 26:57
  up
• 26:57
  to
• 26:57
  play
• 26:57
  with
• 26:57
  them,
• 26:58
  which
• 26:58
  is
• 26:59
  really
• 26:59
  cool.
• 26:59
  There's
• 27:00
  just
• 27:00
  like
• 27:00
  this
• 27:00
  innate
• 27:02
  sort
• 27:02
  of
• 27:03
  assumed
• 27:04
  invitation
• 27:05
  for
• 27:05
  whoever
• 27:05
  wants
• 27:06
  to
• 27:06
  go.
• 27:06
  So
• 27:06
  you
• 27:06
  don't
• 27:07
  have
• 27:07
  to
• 27:07
  show
• 27:07
  up
• 27:07
  with
• 27:07
  your
• 27:07
  own
• 27:07
  board
• 27:08
  games.
• 27:08
  You
• 27:08
  don't
• 27:08
  even
• 27:08
  know
• 27:08
  how.
• 27:09
  Have
• 27:09
  to
• 27:09
  know
• 27:09
  how
• 27:09
  to
• 27:09
  play
• 27:10
  a
• 27:10
  game
• 27:10
  because
• 27:10
  somebody
• 27:11
  will
• 27:11
  teach
• 27:11
  you.
• 27:12
  And
• 27:12
  the
• 27:12
  same
• 27:13
  thing
• 27:13
  with
• 27:13
  these,
• 27:13
  like,
• 27:14
  artists
• 27:14
  alleys.
• 27:14
  Galaxycon
• 27:15
  always
• 27:15
  has
• 27:15
  a
• 27:15
  huge
• 27:16
  artist
• 27:16
  alley
• 27:16
  with
• 27:17
  a
• 27:17
  whole
• 27:17
  room
• 27:18
  filled
• 27:18
  up
• 27:18
  with
• 27:18
  lots
• 27:19
  of
• 27:19
  space
• 27:19
  where
• 27:19
  you
• 27:19
  can
• 27:19
  show
• 27:20
  up
• 27:20
  and
• 27:20
  talk
• 27:20
  to
• 27:20
  the
• 27:20
  artists
• 27:21
  and
• 27:21
  ask
• 27:21
  questions
• 27:22
  or
• 27:23
  get
• 27:23
  to
• 27:23
  know
• 27:23
  people
• 27:24
  who
• 27:24
  have
• 27:24
  designed,
• 27:25
  like,
• 27:25
  comic
• 27:26
  books
• 27:26
  and
• 27:26
  all
• 27:26
  sorts
• 27:27
  of
• 27:27
  things.
• 27:27
  There's
• 27:27
  this
• 27:28
  access
• 27:29
  that
• 27:29
  you
• 27:30
  get.
• 27:30
  So
• 27:30
  what
• 27:31
  if
• 27:31
  that
• 27:31
  was
• 27:31
  a
• 27:31
  spiritual
• 27:32
  practice
• 27:32
  for
• 27:32
  the
• 27:32
  church
• 27:33
  to
• 27:33
  just
• 27:33
  show
• 27:34
  up
• 27:34
  and
• 27:34
  be
• 27:35
  in
• 27:35
  the
• 27:35
  community
• 27:35
  and
• 27:36
  be
• 27:36
  in
• 27:37
  the
• 27:37
  world
• 27:37
  in
• 27:38
  such
• 27:38
  an
• 27:38
  invitational
• 27:38
  way?
• 27:39
  That
• 27:40
  would
• 27:40
  be
• 27:40
  great.
• 27:40
  I
• 27:41
  just.
• 27:41
  Because,
• 27:42
  I
• 27:43
  don't
• 27:43
  know,
• 27:43
  that's
• 27:43
  the
• 27:43
  kind
• 27:43
  of
• 27:43
  thing
• 27:44
  that
• 27:44
  makes
• 27:44
  a
• 27:44
  con
• 27:45
  feel
• 27:45
  special.
• 27:46
  Also
• 27:47
  a
• 27:47
  little
• 27:47
  solicitous.
• 27:49
  But,
• 27:50
  you
• 27:50
  know,
• 27:50
  it
• 27:51
  feels
• 27:51
  like
• 27:51
  a
• 27:51
  community
• 27:51
  and
• 27:52
  you
• 27:52
  can
• 27:52
  always
• 27:52
  find
• 27:52
  someone
• 27:52
  who
• 27:53
  is,
• 27:54
  you
• 27:54
  know,
• 27:54
  making
• 27:54
  something
• 27:55
  that
• 27:55
  you're
• 27:55
  interested
• 27:55
  in.
• 27:56
  So
• 27:56
  if
• 27:56
  we
• 27:56
  had,
• 27:57
  if
• 27:57
  church
• 27:57
  was
• 27:57
  like
• 27:57
  that,
• 27:58
  if
• 27:58
  the
• 27:58
  foyer
• 27:58
  was
• 27:58
  just
• 27:58
  full
• 27:59
  of
• 27:59
  people
• 28:00
  showing
• 28:00
  off
• 28:00
  that
• 28:00
  the,
• 28:01
  you
• 28:01
  know,
• 28:01
  the
• 28:01
  stained
• 28:02
  glass
• 28:02
  they're
• 28:02
  making.
• 28:03
  Yeah.
• 28:03
  And
• 28:03
  different
• 28:04
  scenes
• 28:04
  in
• 28:04
  the
• 28:04
  Bible,
• 28:05
  that
• 28:05
  would
• 28:05
  be
• 28:05
  awesome.
• 28:06
  And
• 28:06
  you
• 28:06
  could
• 28:07
  buy
• 28:07
  one,
• 28:07
  be
• 28:07
  super
• 28:08
  cool.
• 28:08
  And
• 28:08
  it's
• 28:08
  a
• 28:08
  great
• 28:08
  way
• 28:08
  to,
• 28:09
  like,
• 28:09
  actually
• 28:10
  get
• 28:10
  some
• 28:11
  practice
• 28:11
  and
• 28:11
  some
• 28:12
  confidence.
• 28:13
  If
• 28:13
  you're
• 28:14
  like
• 28:14
  one
• 28:14
  of
• 28:14
  those
• 28:14
  creatives
• 28:15
  who
• 28:15
  likes
• 28:15
  to
• 28:15
  create
• 28:16
  things
• 28:16
  and,
• 28:16
  you
• 28:17
  know,
• 28:17
  that
• 28:17
  just
• 28:17
  has
• 28:18
  them
• 28:18
  sitting
• 28:18
  around
• 28:18
  because
• 28:18
  they
• 28:19
  don't
• 28:19
  want
• 28:19
  to
• 28:19
  risk
• 28:19
  selling
• 28:20
  them.
• 28:20
  Feel
• 28:20
  at
• 28:21
  a
• 28:21
  church,
• 28:21
  people
• 28:21
  are
• 28:21
  a
• 28:21
  lot
• 28:22
  more
• 28:22
  willing
• 28:22
  to,
• 28:22
  you
• 28:23
  know,
• 28:23
  buy
• 28:24
  something
• 28:25
  even
• 28:25
  if
• 28:25
  it's
• 28:25
  not
• 28:25
  perfect.
• 28:26
  Like,
• 28:26
  you
• 28:27
  know,
• 28:27
  there's
• 28:27
  a
• 28:27
  couple
• 28:27
  errors
• 28:28
  in
• 28:28
  it
• 28:28
  and
• 28:28
  that's
• 28:28
  okay.
• 28:28
  I'm
• 28:29
  still
• 28:29
  going
• 28:29
  to
• 28:29
  buy
• 28:29
  this
• 28:29
  because
• 28:29
  it
• 28:29
  looks
• 28:30
  great.
• 28:31
  So
• 28:31
  that
• 28:31
  would
• 28:31
  be
• 28:31
  so
• 28:32
  super
• 28:32
  cool.
• 28:33
  And
• 28:33
  then
• 28:33
  just
• 28:34
  if
• 28:35
  before
• 28:35
  and
• 28:35
  after
• 28:35
  church,
• 28:36
  people
• 28:36
  are
• 28:36
  just
• 28:36
  hanging
• 28:37
  around,
• 28:38
  sitting
• 28:38
  around,
• 28:38
  playing
• 28:39
  cards,
• 28:39
  talking
• 28:39
  about
• 28:40
  the
• 28:40
  Bible.
• 28:40
  That's
• 28:41
  what
• 28:41
  a
• 28:41
  community
• 28:41
  feels
• 28:41
  like,
• 28:41
  for
• 28:42
  sure.
• 28:42
  That's
• 28:43
  what
• 28:43
  college
• 28:43
  felt
• 28:44
  like,
• 28:44
  you
• 28:44
  know.
• 28:44
  Yeah.
• 28:45
  You
• 28:45
  don't
• 28:45
  know
• 28:45
  what
• 28:46
  to
• 28:46
  do
• 28:46
  just
• 28:46
  walk
• 28:46
  around?
• 28:47
  Somebody's
• 28:48
  doing
• 28:48
  something?
• 28:49
  No,
• 28:49
  I
• 28:49
  love
• 28:50
  that.
• 28:50
  I
• 28:50
  think
• 28:50
  that's
• 28:50
  one
• 28:50
  of
• 28:50
  the
• 28:51
  things
• 28:51
  that
• 28:51
  is
• 28:51
  so
• 28:51
  cool
• 28:52
  about,
• 28:52
  like,
• 28:52
  college
• 28:52
  campuses
• 28:53
  is
• 28:53
  that
• 28:54
  people,
• 28:55
  even
• 28:55
  if
• 28:55
  they're
• 28:55
  in
• 28:55
  their
• 28:55
  dorms
• 28:56
  or
• 28:56
  doing
• 28:56
  their
• 28:56
  own
• 28:56
  things,
• 28:57
  like,
• 28:57
  they're
• 28:58
  still
• 28:58
  part
• 28:58
  of
• 28:58
  a
• 28:58
  community.
• 28:58
  They're
• 28:59
  all
• 28:59
  going
• 28:59
  to
• 28:59
  run
• 28:59
  into
• 28:59
  each
• 29:00
  other
• 29:00
  and,
• 29:01
  you
• 29:01
  know,
• 29:01
  there
• 29:02
  is
• 29:02
  no
• 29:02
  escaping
• 29:02
  the
• 29:03
  inevitable
• 29:03
  community
• 29:04
  that
• 29:04
  is
• 29:04
  within
• 29:04
  a
• 29:05
  college
• 29:05
  campus.
• 29:06
  And
• 29:06
  so,
• 29:06
  yeah,
• 29:07
  that
• 29:08
  idea
• 29:08
  that
• 29:08
  you
• 29:08
  can
• 29:08
  just
• 29:09
  run
• 29:09
  into
• 29:09
  someone
• 29:09
  and
• 29:10
  say,
• 29:10
  hey,
• 29:10
  what
• 29:10
  are
• 29:11
  you
• 29:11
  doing
• 29:11
  right
• 29:11
  now?
• 29:12
  Yeah,
• 29:13
  right
• 29:14
  now,
• 29:14
  right
• 29:14
  in
• 29:14
  this
• 29:15
  moment.
• 29:16
  In
• 29:16
  fact,
• 29:16
  I
• 29:16
  have
• 29:16
  a
• 29:16
  student
• 29:17
  who's
• 29:17
  really
• 29:17
  good
• 29:18
  at
• 29:18
  that.
• 29:18
  If
• 29:18
  I'm
• 29:18
  walking
• 29:19
  across
• 29:19
  campus
• 29:19
  and
• 29:20
  she
• 29:20
  sees
• 29:20
  me,
• 29:20
  she'll
• 29:20
  say,
• 29:21
  hey,
• 29:21
  you
• 29:22
  want
• 29:22
  to
• 29:22
  go
• 29:22
  to
• 29:22
  the
• 29:22
  chapel
• 29:22
  and
• 29:23
  pray
• 29:23
  with
• 29:23
  me?
• 29:23
  And
• 29:23
  it
• 29:23
  won't
• 29:24
  just
• 29:24
  be
• 29:24
  her
• 29:24
  and
• 29:24
  I.
• 29:24
  She
• 29:25
  will
• 29:25
  stop
• 29:25
  every
• 29:26
  person
• 29:26
  that
• 29:26
  we
• 29:27
  see
• 29:27
  along
• 29:27
  the
• 29:27
  way
• 29:27
  and
• 29:27
  say,
• 29:28
  hey,
• 29:28
  what
• 29:28
  are
• 29:28
  you
• 29:28
  doing
• 29:28
  right
• 29:28
  now?
• 29:29
  And
• 29:29
  she'll
• 29:29
  ask
• 29:29
  them
• 29:30
  how
• 29:30
  long
• 29:30
  they
• 29:30
  have
• 29:30
  till
• 29:31
  they
• 29:31
  need
• 29:31
  to
• 29:31
  be
• 29:31
  there,
• 29:32
  and
• 29:32
  she'll
• 29:32
  invite
• 29:32
  them
• 29:32
  to
• 29:33
  come
• 29:33
  and
• 29:33
  pray.
• 29:34
  And
• 29:34
  it's
• 29:35
  just,
• 29:35
  she
• 29:35
  has
• 29:35
  that.
• 29:36
  That
• 29:36
  sort
• 29:36
  of
• 29:37
  calling
• 29:37
  that
• 29:37
  is
• 29:38
  very
• 29:38
  innate
• 29:39
  within
• 29:39
  her.
• 29:39
  What
• 29:40
  if
• 29:40
  churches
• 29:40
  had
• 29:41
  merch
• 29:41
  tables
• 29:42
  or,
• 29:43
  you
• 29:43
  know,
• 29:43
  ways
• 29:44
  that
• 29:44
  we
• 29:44
  could
• 29:44
  support
• 29:45
  the
• 29:45
  creators
• 29:46
  within
• 29:46
  our
• 29:46
  churches?
• 29:47
  I
• 29:47
  mean,
• 29:47
  like
• 29:47
  you
• 29:47
  said,
• 29:47
  you
• 29:48
  know,
• 29:48
  you
• 29:48
  walk
• 29:48
  through
• 29:48
  church,
• 29:49
  somebody
• 29:49
  selling
• 29:49
  their
• 29:49
  stained
• 29:50
  glass
• 29:50
  windows
• 29:51
  or
• 29:51
  something,
• 29:52
  that
• 29:52
  allows
• 29:53
  us
• 29:53
  to
• 29:53
  see
• 29:53
  the
• 29:53
  beauty
• 29:53
  and
• 29:54
  the
• 29:54
  creativity
• 29:54
  that
• 29:54
  we
• 29:55
  all
• 29:55
  have
• 29:55
  to.
• 29:56
  To
• 29:56
  offer.
• 29:58
  I
• 29:58
  think
• 29:58
  sometimes
• 29:58
  we're
• 29:59
  afraid
• 29:59
  to
• 29:59
  share
• 29:59
  our
• 30:00
  talents
• 30:00
  and
• 30:01
  what
• 30:01
  it
• 30:01
  is
• 30:01
  that
• 30:01
  we
• 30:01
  have
• 30:02
  for
• 30:02
  fear
• 30:02
  of
• 30:03
  judgment
• 30:03
  or,
• 30:03
  like
• 30:04
  you
• 30:04
  said,
• 30:04
  that
• 30:04
  lack
• 30:04
  of
• 30:05
  perfection.
• 30:05
  But
• 30:05
  I
• 30:05
  think
• 30:06
  one
• 30:06
  of
• 30:06
  the
• 30:07
  ways
• 30:07
  that
• 30:07
  the
• 30:07
  church
• 30:08
  could
• 30:08
  grow
• 30:08
  is
• 30:09
  in
• 30:10
  being
• 30:10
  able
• 30:10
  to
• 30:11
  point
• 30:11
  out
• 30:11
  our
• 30:11
  own
• 30:12
  imperfections
• 30:12
  and
• 30:13
  to
• 30:13
  remember
• 30:14
  that
• 30:14
  to
• 30:15
  be
• 30:15
  knit
• 30:15
  together
• 30:15
  means
• 30:16
  you're
• 30:16
  going
• 30:16
  to
• 30:16
  have
• 30:16
  a
• 30:16
  few
• 30:17
  loose
• 30:17
  stitches.
• 30:18
  Right.
• 30:18
  But
• 30:18
  there's,
• 30:19
  you
• 30:19
  know,
• 30:20
  that's
• 30:20
  part
• 30:20
  of
• 30:20
  the
• 30:20
  beauty
• 30:21
  of
• 30:21
  it.
• 30:21
  Yeah.
• 30:21
  And
• 30:22
  the
• 30:22
  church
• 30:22
  historically
• 30:23
  has
• 30:23
  supported
• 30:24
  the
• 30:24
  arts
• 30:25
  and
• 30:25
  that.
• 30:25
  That
• 30:26
  feels
• 30:26
  kind
• 30:26
  of
• 30:26
  lost
• 30:26
  these
• 30:27
  days.
• 30:27
  Nowadays,
• 30:27
  the
• 30:27
  only
• 30:28
  talent
• 30:29
  you
• 30:29
  can
• 30:29
  have
• 30:29
  that
• 30:29
  a
• 30:30
  church
• 30:30
  is
• 30:30
  going
• 30:30
  to
• 30:30
  really,
• 30:31
  you
• 30:31
  know,
• 30:32
  endorse
• 30:32
  and
• 30:32
  support
• 30:33
  is
• 30:33
  singing.
• 30:34
  Yeah,
• 30:34
  like,
• 30:34
  oh,
• 30:35
  you
• 30:35
  can
• 30:35
  sing.
• 30:35
  Awesome.
• 30:36
  You
• 30:36
  can
• 30:36
  dance.
• 30:38
  That'll
• 30:38
  be
• 30:38
  cool.
• 30:39
  Once
• 30:39
  a
• 30:39
  month.
• 30:40
  Once
• 30:41
  a
• 30:41
  month.
• 30:41
  That'll
• 30:41
  be
• 30:42
  awesome.
• 30:43
  It's
• 30:44
  just
• 30:44
  those
• 30:44
  things
• 30:45
  that
• 30:45
  the
• 30:46
  church
• 30:46
  seems
• 30:46
  to
• 30:46
  care
• 30:46
  about
• 30:47
  these
• 30:47
  days,
• 30:47
  or
• 30:47
  a
• 30:47
  lot
• 30:47
  of
• 30:47
  them
• 30:48
  at
• 30:48
  least.
• 30:48
  So
• 30:49
  it'd
• 30:49
  be
• 30:49
  awesome
• 30:49
  if,
• 30:50
  like,
• 30:50
  if
• 30:51
  your
• 30:51
  passion
• 30:51
  is,
• 30:52
  you
• 30:52
  know,
• 30:53
  creative
• 30:53
  writing,
• 30:54
  short
• 30:54
  writing,
• 30:55
  you
• 30:55
  know,
• 30:55
  recontextualizing
• 30:57
  Bible
• 30:57
  stories
• 30:58
  into,
• 30:59
  like,
• 30:59
  more
• 30:59
  modern
• 31:00
  stories,
• 31:01
  and
• 31:01
  you
• 31:01
  just
• 31:02
  have
• 31:02
  those
• 31:02
  out
• 31:02
  on
• 31:02
  a
• 31:03
  table
• 31:03
  and
• 31:03
  like,
• 31:03
  hey,
• 31:03
  take
• 31:04
  a
• 31:04
  look
• 31:04
  at
• 31:04
  this.
• 31:04
  That'd
• 31:05
  be
• 31:05
  awesome.
• 31:05
  That'd
• 31:05
  be
• 31:05
  so
• 31:06
  cool.
• 31:06
  Just
• 31:07
  that.
• 31:07
  That
• 31:07
  space
• 31:07
  to
• 31:08
  express
• 31:08
  yourself
• 31:08
  within
• 31:09
  the
• 31:09
  tradition.
• 31:10
  That's.
• 31:10
  That's
• 31:11
  not
• 31:11
  something
• 31:11
  that's
• 31:11
  really
• 31:11
  offered
• 31:12
  in.
• 31:13
  In
• 31:13
  just
• 31:14
  everyone's
• 31:14
  church.
• 31:14
  Right.
• 31:15
  We
• 31:15
  have
• 31:15
  to
• 31:15
  seek
• 31:15
  that
• 31:16
  out.
• 31:16
  We
• 31:16
  have
• 31:16
  to
• 31:16
  go
• 31:16
  to
• 31:16
  a
• 31:17
  conference
• 31:17
  for
• 31:17
  that,
• 31:18
  and
• 31:18
  we
• 31:18
  have
• 31:18
  to
• 31:19
  pay
• 31:19
  a
• 31:19
  lot
• 31:19
  of
• 31:19
  money
• 31:19
  to
• 31:20
  go
• 31:20
  to
• 31:20
  those
• 31:20
  conferences.
• 32:07
  Right,
• 32:08
  right.
• 32:09
  Yeah.
• 32:10
  Almost
• 32:10
  like
• 32:10
  a
• 32:11
  liturgical
• 32:11
  crowdsourcing.
• 32:12
  Like,
• 32:13
  here's
• 32:13
  our
• 32:13
  shared
• 32:14
  stuff
• 32:14
  that
• 32:15
  as
• 32:15
  a
• 32:15
  church,
• 32:15
  we
• 32:15
  value
• 32:16
  and
• 32:16
  bring
• 32:16
  to
• 32:17
  the
• 32:17
  table.
• 32:17
  You
• 32:17
  know,
• 32:17
  here's
• 32:18
  everybody's
• 32:18
  things
• 32:19
  that
• 32:20
  they
• 32:20
  can
• 32:20
  do
• 32:20
  and
• 32:20
  that
• 32:21
  they
• 32:21
  can
• 32:21
  design
• 32:21
  and
• 32:21
  that
• 32:22
  they
• 32:22
  can
• 32:22
  practice,
• 32:23
  and
• 32:24
  how
• 32:24
  can
• 32:24
  we
• 32:25
  get
• 32:25
  people
• 32:25
  interested
• 32:26
  in
• 32:26
  those
• 32:26
  different
• 32:27
  things,
• 32:27
  you
• 32:28
  know?
• 32:29
  So
• 32:29
  this
• 32:29
  is
• 32:29
  a
• 32:30
  little
• 32:30
  bit
• 32:30
  of
• 32:30
  a
• 32:30
  shameless
• 32:31
  plug,
• 32:31
  because
• 32:31
  I'm
• 32:31
  getting
• 32:31
  ready
• 32:32
  to
• 32:32
  start
• 32:32
  my
• 32:32
  doctorate
• 32:33
  work
• 32:34
  in
• 32:34
  this
• 32:34
  particular
• 31:48
  topic.
• 32:35
  But
• 32:36
  one
• 32:36
  of
• 32:36
  the
• 32:36
  things
• 32:37
  that's
• 32:37
  growing
• 32:38
  in
• 32:38
  the
• 32:38
  church
• 32:38
  right
• 32:39
  now,
• 32:39
  at
• 32:39
  least
• 32:39
  in
• 32:40
  sort
• 32:40
  of
• 32:40
  the
• 32:40
  Protestant
• 32:41
  world,
• 32:42
  is
• 32:42
  the
• 32:43
  Fresh
• 32:43
  Expressions
• 32:44
  movement.
• 32:44
  A
• 32:44
  lot
• 32:44
  of
• 32:44
  churches
• 32:45
  have
• 32:45
  things
• 32:45
  like
• 32:45
  this,
• 32:46
  but
• 32:46
  they
• 32:46
  have
• 32:46
  different
• 32:47
  names
• 32:47
  or
• 32:47
  titles.
• 32:49
  So
• 32:49
  in
• 32:49
  the
• 32:49
  Methodist
• 32:50
  Church
• 32:50
  in
• 32:50
  particular,
• 32:51
  where
• 32:51
  I
• 32:51
  come
• 32:51
  from,
• 32:52
  Fresh
• 32:52
  Expressions
• 32:53
  is
• 32:53
  sort
• 32:53
  of
• 32:53
  rooted
• 32:54
  in
• 32:54
  this
• 32:54
  very
• 32:54
  idea
• 32:55
  that
• 32:56
  church
• 32:57
  is
• 32:57
  not
• 32:57
  just
• 32:57
  about
• 32:57
  meeting
• 32:58
  on
• 32:58
  Sunday
• 32:58
  morning,
• 32:59
  but
• 32:59
  it's
• 32:59
  about
• 32:59
  going
• 32:59
  out
• 33:00
  to
• 33:00
  the
• 33:00
  places
• 33:00
  where
• 33:00
  you
• 33:01
  already
• 33:01
  are
• 33:02
  and
• 33:02
  finding
• 33:03
  ways
• 33:03
  to
• 33:03
  connect
• 33:04
  in
• 33:04
  natural
• 33:05
  ways
• 33:05
  to
• 33:05
  show
• 33:06
  people
• 33:06
  that
• 33:06
  God
• 33:06
  is
• 33:07
  good,
• 33:07
  that
• 33:07
  there's
• 33:08
  something
• 33:08
  worth
• 33:09
  celebrating
• 33:09
  and
• 33:10
  getting
• 33:10
  to
• 33:10
  know.
• 33:11
  But
• 33:11
  it
• 33:12
  celebrates
• 33:12
  the
• 33:12
  things
• 33:12
  that
• 33:13
  people
• 33:13
  are
• 33:13
  already
• 33:13
  doing.
• 33:14
  So,
• 33:14
  for
• 33:14
  instance,
• 33:15
  there's
• 33:15
  Fresh
• 33:16
  Expressions
• 33:16
  churches
• 33:17
  that
• 33:17
  take
• 33:17
  place
• 33:18
  in
• 33:18
  tattoo
• 33:18
  parlors.
• 33:19
  So
• 33:19
  everybody
• 33:20
  goes
• 33:20
  and
• 33:20
  gets
• 33:20
  a
• 33:20
  tattoo
• 33:21
  together,
• 33:21
  and
• 33:21
  that's
• 33:22
  their
• 33:22
  expression.
• 33:23
  But
• 33:23
  then
• 33:23
  they
• 33:23
  talk
• 33:23
  about
• 33:24
  God,
• 33:25
  or,
• 33:26
  you
• 33:26
  know,
• 33:26
  there's
• 33:26
  groups
• 33:27
  that
• 33:27
  have,
• 33:27
  like,
• 33:28
  D
• 33:28
  and
• 33:28
  D
• 33:28
  groups
• 33:29
  that
• 33:29
  get
• 33:29
  together
• 33:29
  and
• 33:29
  they
• 33:30
  play
• 33:30
  D
• 33:30
  and
• 33:30
  D.
• 33:31
  And,
• 33:32
  you
• 33:32
  know,
• 33:32
  it's
• 33:33
  not
• 33:33
  necessarily
• 33:33
  always
• 33:34
  churchy,
• 33:35
  but
• 33:35
  they'll
• 33:35
  share
• 33:36
  their
• 33:36
  vulnerabilities
• 33:36
  and
• 33:37
  their
• 33:37
  stories
• 33:37
  and
• 33:37
  their
• 33:38
  things
• 33:38
  that
• 33:38
  are
• 33:38
  going
• 33:38
  on
• 33:38
  in
• 33:39
  their
• 33:39
  lives.
• 33:39
  And
• 33:39
  it.
• 33:39
  It
• 33:40
  takes
• 33:40
  this
• 33:40
  very
• 33:40
  sort
• 33:41
  of
• 33:42
  personal
• 33:42
  place
• 33:43
  within
• 33:43
  the
• 33:43
  community.
• 33:44
  And
• 33:44
  so
• 33:45
  there's.
• 33:46
  Like
• 33:46
  I
• 33:46
  said,
• 33:46
  there's
• 33:46
  lots
• 33:47
  of
• 33:47
  different
• 33:47
  ways.
• 33:47
  I
• 33:47
  know
• 33:47
  the
• 33:48
  Methodist
• 33:48
  church
• 33:48
  because
• 33:48
  that's
• 33:49
  where
• 33:49
  I
• 33:49
  come
• 33:49
  from,
• 33:50
  but
• 33:50
  there's
• 33:50
  lots
• 33:50
  of
• 33:50
  different
• 33:51
  ways
• 33:51
  that
• 33:51
  that's

  happening
• 33:52
  in

  the
• 33:52
  church

• 33:59
  and
• 33:59
  connect
• 34:00
  with

  people
• 34:01
  and

  build

  community
• 34:02
  where
• 34:02
  people
• 34:02
  already

• 34:35
  Like,
• 34:36
  love
• 34:36
  dnd.
• 34:37
  And
• 34:37
  I
• 34:37
  have
• 34:37
  tried
• 34:38
  to
• 34:40
  kindly
• 34:40
  coerce
• 34:41
  my
• 34:41
  students
• 34:42
  into
• 34:42
  playing
• 34:42
  D
• 34:42
  and
• 34:42
  D.
• 34:43
  Like,
• 34:43
  I've
• 34:43
  offered
• 34:43
  extra
• 34:44
  credit
• 34:44
  for
• 34:44
  it
• 34:44
  and
• 34:46
  you
• 34:46
  see
• 34:46
  a
• 34:46
  theme
• 34:46
  here.
• 34:47
  I'm
• 34:47
  offering
• 34:47
  extra
• 34:47
  credit
• 34:48
  for
• 34:48
  things,
• 34:48
  but.
• 34:49
  But
• 34:50
  I.
• 34:50
  It
• 34:51
  doesn't.
• 34:52
  They're
• 34:52
  not
• 34:52
  so
• 34:53
  interested
• 34:54
  because
• 34:54
  they
• 34:55
  think
• 34:55
  they're
• 34:55
  not
• 34:55
  ready
• 34:56
  to
• 34:56
  embrace
• 34:56
  their
• 34:56
  inner
• 34:56
  nerd.
• 34:57
  Right?
• 34:57
  But
• 34:57
  if
• 34:58
  church
• 34:58
  brought
• 34:58
  this
• 34:58
  out
• 34:59
  of
• 34:59
  them,
• 34:59
  imagine
• 35:00
  where
• 35:00
  that
• 35:00
  could
• 35:01
  lead.
• 35:01
  Right?
• 35:02
  And
• 35:02
  oddly
• 35:03
  enough,
• 35:03
  there
• 35:03
  was
• 35:04
  a
• 35:04
  summer
• 35:04
  camp,
• 35:05
  a
• 35:05
  Methodist
• 35:05
  summer
• 35:06
  camp
• 35:06
  at
• 35:06
  our
• 35:06
  school
• 35:06
  a
• 35:06
  couple
• 35:07
  of
• 35:07
  weeks
• 35:07
  ago,
• 35:07
  and
• 35:08
  we
• 35:08
  did
• 35:08
  do
• 35:08
  a
• 35:08
  D
• 35:09
  and
• 35:09
  D
• 35:09
  group
• 35:09
  with
• 35:09
  like,
• 35:10
  25
• 35:10
  kids,
• 35:11
  which,
• 35:11
  by
• 35:11
  the
• 35:11
  way,
• 35:12
  do
• 35:12
  not
• 35:13
  Recommend
• 35:13
  Trying
• 35:13
  to
• 35:13
  DM
• 35:14
  for
• 35:14
  25
• 35:14
  people.
• 35:15
  However,
• 35:16
  it
• 35:16
  was
• 35:16
  chaos
• 35:17
  and
• 35:17
  it
• 35:17
  was
• 35:17
  so
• 35:18
  much
• 35:18
  fun.
• 35:18
  But,
• 35:18
  yes,
• 35:19
  I
• 35:19
  would
• 35:19
  love
• 35:20
  for
• 35:20
  people
• 35:20
  to
• 35:20
  jump
• 35:21
  in
• 35:21
  and
• 35:21
  play
• 35:21
  D
• 35:21
  and
• 35:21
  D
• 35:21
  with
• 35:22
  us.
• 35:22
  That
• 35:22
  would
• 35:22
  be
• 35:22
  so
• 35:22
  much
• 35:22
  fun
• 35:23
  because
• 35:24
  I
• 35:25
  am,
• 35:25
  as
• 35:25
  I'm
• 35:25
  sure
• 35:26
  some
• 35:26
  of
• 35:26
  you
• 35:26
  can
• 35:26
  imagine,
• 35:27
  a
• 35:27
  chaos
• 35:28
  person
• 35:28
  in
• 35:28
  all
• 35:29
  ways
• 35:29
  when
• 35:29
  it
• 35:29
  comes
• 35:30
  to
• 35:30
  D
• 35:30
  and
• 35:30
  D.
• 35:30
  Just
• 35:31
  chaos.
• 35:32
  That's
• 35:33
  me.
• 35:33
  Oh,
• 35:33
  yeah.
• 35:34
  So
• 35:34
  let
• 35:34
  us
• 35:34
  know
• 35:35
  if
• 35:35
  that's
• 35:35
  something
• 35:35
  you'd
• 35:35
  be
• 35:35
  interested
• 35:36
  in.
• 35:36
  And
• 35:36
  joining
• 35:37
  us
• 35:37
  on
• 35:37
  Patreon.
• 35:38
  We
• 35:38
  will
• 35:38
  start
• 35:38
  doing
• 35:39
  that
• 35:39
  again.
• 35:40
  I'm
• 35:40
  here
• 35:41
  for
• 35:41
  it.
• 35:42
  We
• 35:42
  will
• 35:42
  start
• 35:42
  doing
• 35:43
  that
• 35:43
  again.
• 35:43
  So
• 35:44
  I
• 35:44
  think
• 35:44
  all
• 35:45
  of
• 35:45
  this
• 35:45
  comes
• 35:45
  down
• 35:46
  to
• 35:47
  a
• 35:47
  question
• 35:48
  of
• 35:49
  how
• 35:49
  can
• 35:49
  the
• 35:49
  church
• 35:51
  create
• 35:51
  space
• 35:51
  for
• 35:51
  people
• 35:52
  to
• 35:52
  be
• 35:52
  truly
• 35:53
  who
• 35:53
  they
• 35:53
  are?
• 35:54
  And
• 35:55
  even
• 35:55
  if
• 35:55
  the
• 35:56
  church
• 35:56
  doesn't
• 35:56
  create
• 35:56
  space
• 35:57
  on
• 35:57
  its
• 35:57
  own,
• 35:57
  how
• 35:58
  can
• 35:58
  we
• 35:58
  show
• 35:58
  up
• 35:59
  fully
• 35:59
  with
• 36:00
  all
• 36:00
  that
• 36:00
  we
• 36:00
  are
• 36:01
  into
• 36:01
  those
• 36:01
  spaces?
• 36:02
  And
• 36:03
  what
• 36:03
  would
• 36:03
  it.
• 36:03
  What
• 36:04
  would
• 36:04
  it
• 36:04
  do
• 36:05
  to
• 36:05
  those
• 36:05
  who
• 36:06
  maybe
• 36:07
  have
• 36:07
  been
• 36:07
  afraid
• 36:08
  to
• 36:08
  enter
• 36:08
  those
• 36:09
  spaces
• 36:09
  to
• 36:09
  know,
• 36:10
  hey,
• 36:10
  there's
• 36:10
  someone
• 36:10
  just
• 36:11
  as
• 36:11
  nerdy
• 36:11
  as
• 36:11
  me
• 36:12
  there,
• 36:12
  or
• 36:12
  there's
• 36:13
  someone
• 36:14
  like
• 36:14
  me
• 36:15
  in
• 36:15
  that
• 36:15
  space
• 36:15
  or
• 36:16
  someone
• 36:16
  who
• 36:16
  has
• 36:16
  the
• 36:16
  same
• 36:17
  questions
• 36:17
  I
• 36:17
  do.
• 36:18
  Yeah,
• 36:19
  that's
• 36:19
  like,
• 36:19
  I
• 36:20
  think
• 36:20
  one
• 36:20
  of
• 36:20
  the
• 36:20
  coolest
• 36:21
  things
• 36:21
  about
• 36:22
  playing
• 36:22
  games
• 36:23
  online,
• 36:23
  you
• 36:24
  know,
• 36:24
  specifically,
• 36:24
  like,
• 36:25
  for
• 36:26
  specifically
• 36:26
  tactical
• 36:27
  FPS
• 36:27
  games,
• 36:28
  which
• 36:28
  I
• 36:29
  play
• 36:29

  You'll

• 36:45
  Like

  their

  name
• 36:45
  will

  be

  based

  off

  of

  the

  other

  if

  you

  like
• 36:53
  that
• 36:53
  thing
• 36:53
  a
• 36:53
  lot,
• 36:54
  you'll
• 36:54
  just
• 36:55
  kind
• 36:55
  of
• 36:55
  be
• 36:55
  stuck

  there

  thinking
• 36:56
  like,
• 36:57
  because
• 36:57
  you'll
• 36:57
  talk

  them
• 36:58
  and

  y'

  all
• 36:58
  will

  game
• 37:00
  chat
• 37:00
  to
• 37:01
  each
• 37:01
  other.
• 37:02
  And
• 37:02
  then
• 37:02
  you'll
• 37:02
  just
• 37:02
  have
• 37:02
  to
• 37:03
  get
• 37:03
  like
• 37:03
  railed,
• 37:04
  just
• 37:04
  absolutely
• 37:05
  dumpstered
• 37:06
  for
• 37:07
  13
• 37:07
  rounds.
• 37:08
  And
• 37:08
  then
• 37:09
  you're
• 37:09
  still
• 37:09
  trying
• 37:09
  to
• 37:09
  be
• 37:09
  friends.
• 37:09
  It's
• 37:10
  just
• 37:10
  a,
• 37:10
  It's
• 37:10
  a
• 37:10
  really
• 37:10
  fun
• 37:11
  time.
• 37:12
  It's
• 37:12
  really
• 37:12
  fun.
• 37:12
  It's
• 37:13
  a
• 37:13
  lot
• 37:13
  of
• 37:13
  fun.
• 37:13
  It
• 37:13
  just
• 37:13
  happened
• 37:13
  to
• 37:14
  me
• 37:14
  before
• 37:14
  we
• 37:14
  started
• 37:14
  doing
• 37:14
  this,
• 37:15
  but
• 37:16
  it's
• 37:16
  a
• 37:16
  great
• 37:16
  time
• 37:17
  because
• 37:17
  you're
• 37:17
  like,
• 37:17
  oh,
• 37:18
  his
• 37:18
  name's
• 37:18
  Gabby
• 37:18
  Maru.
• 37:19
  He
• 37:19
  watched
• 37:19
  Hell's
• 37:19
  Paradise.
• 37:20
  Sweet.
• 37:21
  Better
• 37:21
  talk
• 37:21
  to
• 37:21
  this
• 37:21
  guy.
• 37:22
  I
• 37:22
  love
• 37:23
  it
• 37:23
  though,
• 37:23
  because
• 37:23
  it's
• 37:23
  a
• 37:24
  space
• 37:24
  where
• 37:24
  there
• 37:24
  is
• 37:24
  intentional,
• 37:25
  you
• 37:25
  know,
• 37:26
  sort
• 37:26
  of.
• 37:28
  It's
• 37:28
  an
• 37:28
  intentional
• 37:29
  space
• 37:29
  where
• 37:29
  you
• 37:29
  can
• 37:29
  have
• 37:30
  that
• 37:30
  sort
• 37:30
  of
• 37:30
  invitation
• 37:31
  and
• 37:31
  finding
• 37:32
  your
• 37:32
  common
• 37:33
  ground.
• 37:33
  We
• 37:33
  did
• 37:34
  this
• 37:34
  really
• 37:34
  cool
• 37:34
  activity.
• 37:35
  I
• 37:35
  talk
• 37:35
  about
• 37:35
  school
• 37:35
  a
• 37:36
  lot.
• 37:36
  I'm
• 37:36
  sorry,
• 37:36
  it's
• 37:36
  what's
• 37:36
  on
• 37:36
  my
• 37:37
  brain.
• 37:37
  But
• 37:37
  we
• 37:37
  had
• 37:37
  this
• 37:37
  really
• 37:38
  cool
• 37:38
  activity
• 37:38
  during
• 37:39
  our
• 37:39
  orientation
• 37:41
  last
• 37:41
  week
• 37:41
  where
• 37:42
  we
• 37:42
  played
• 37:42
  the
• 37:43
  popcorn
• 37:43
  game.
• 37:43
  And
• 37:44
  if
• 37:44
  anybody
• 37:44
  has
• 37:44
  done
• 37:44
  youth
• 37:45
  ministry,
• 37:45
  you've
• 37:45
  probably
• 37:46
  seen
• 37:46
  this
• 37:46
  before
• 37:47
  where
• 37:47
  you
• 37:47
  start
• 37:48
  out
• 37:48
  by
• 37:48
  saying,
• 37:48
  I'm
• 37:49
  Laura
• 37:50
  and
• 37:50
  I,
• 37:50
  you
• 37:51
  know,
• 37:51
  have
• 37:51
  a
• 37:51
  dog
• 37:52
  and
• 37:52
  I
• 37:52
  like
• 37:53
  cosplay.
• 37:54
  And
• 37:54
  then
• 37:54
  whoever
• 37:54
  relates
• 37:55
  to
• 37:55
  some,
• 37:55
  you
• 37:55
  just
• 37:56
  keep
• 37:56
  going
• 37:56
  until
• 37:56
  somebody
• 37:57
  pops
• 37:57
  up
• 37:57
  and
• 37:57
  says,
• 37:58
  I
• 37:58
  also
• 37:58
  like
• 37:58
  cosplay.
• 37:59
  And
• 37:59
  then
• 37:59
  they'll
• 37:59
  start
• 37:59
  listing
• 38:00
  things
• 38:00
  about
• 38:00
  themselves
• 38:01
  and
• 38:01
  it
• 38:01
  goes
• 38:01
  on
• 38:01
  and
• 38:02
  on.
• 38:02
  It
• 38:02
  was
• 38:03
  really
• 38:03
  fun
• 38:03
  to
• 38:03
  watch
• 38:04
  this
• 38:04
  group
• 38:04
  of
• 38:05
  18
• 38:05
  year
• 38:05
  olds
• 38:06
  play
• 38:06
  this
• 38:06
  game
• 38:06
  because
• 38:07
  they
• 38:07
  would
• 38:08
  say
• 38:08
  the
• 38:08
  wildest
• 38:09
  things,
• 38:09
  but
• 38:09
  then
• 38:10
  they
• 38:10
  all
• 38:10
  found
• 38:11
  something
• 38:11
  in
• 38:11
  common
• 38:11
  with
• 38:12
  somebody
• 38:12
  else
• 38:13
  in
• 38:13
  the
• 38:13
  room
• 38:14
  just
• 38:14
  by
• 38:14
  playing
• 38:15
  that
• 38:15
  game.
• 38:15
  And
• 38:15
  it
• 38:16
  was
• 38:16
  just
• 38:16
  an
• 38:16
  intentional
• 38:17
  space
• 38:17
  to
• 38:17
  sort
• 38:17
  of
• 38:17
  be
• 38:18
  crazy
• 38:18
  and
• 38:18
  to
• 38:19
  have
• 38:19
  fun
• 38:19
  and
• 38:19
  to
• 38:19
  shout
• 38:20
  out
• 38:20
  things
• 38:20
  that
• 38:21
  you
• 38:21
  like.
• 38:21
  And
• 38:21
  I,
• 38:22
  I
• 38:22
  wonder,
• 38:22
  even
• 38:23
  in
• 38:23
  this
• 38:23
  sort
• 38:23
  of
• 38:24
  mindset,
• 38:24
  what
• 38:24
  if
• 38:24
  we
• 38:24
  did
• 38:24
  that
• 38:25
  in
• 38:25
  church
• 38:25
  and
• 38:25
  we
• 38:25
  just
• 38:25
  popped
• 38:26
  up
• 38:26
  and
• 38:26
  we're
• 38:26
  like,
• 38:26
  hey,
• 38:28
  you
• 38:28
  know,
• 38:28
  I'm
• 38:28
  Laura
• 38:29
  and
• 38:29
  I
• 38:29
  like
• 38:30
  to
• 38:30
  play
• 38:30
  Call
• 38:30
  of
• 38:30
  Duty
• 38:31
  and,
• 38:31
  you
• 38:32
  know,
• 38:32
  I
• 38:32
  collect
• 38:33
  Pokemon
• 38:33
  cards.
• 38:33
  Like,
• 38:34
  what
• 38:34
  joy
• 38:34
  I
• 38:34
  would
• 38:34
  find
• 38:35
  if
• 38:35
  someone
• 38:35
  on
• 38:35
  the
• 38:35
  other
• 38:36
  side
• 38:36
  of
• 38:36
  the
• 38:36
  church
• 38:36
  stood
• 38:37
  up
• 38:37
  and
• 38:37
  yelled
• 38:37
  at.
• 38:38
  I
• 38:38
  also
• 38:38
  collect
• 38:39
  Pokemon
• 38:39
  cards.
• 38:40
  That
• 38:40
  would
• 38:40
  be
• 38:40
  so
• 38:40
  cool
• 38:41
  because
• 38:41
  I
• 38:41
  know
• 38:41
  somebody's
• 38:42
  there.
• 38:42
  They're
• 38:42
  just
• 38:42
  not
• 38:43
  going
• 38:43
  to
• 38:43
  jump
• 38:43
  up
• 38:43
  and
• 38:43
  say
• 38:43
  it
• 38:43
  in
• 38:44
  church
• 38:44
  without
• 38:44
  the
• 38:45
  invitation
• 38:45
  to
• 38:45
  do
• 38:45
  so.
• 38:46
  Yeah,
• 38:46
  what
• 38:47
  cracks
• 38:47
  me
• 38:47
  up
• 38:47
  is
• 38:47
  seeing
• 38:47
  like
• 38:48
  really
• 38:48
  young
• 38:48
  kids.
• 38:49
  By
• 38:49
  really
• 38:49
  young
• 38:49
  kids,
• 38:50
  I
• 38:50
  do
• 38:50
  mean
• 38:50
  like
• 38:50
  18
• 38:51
  year
• 38:51
  olds.
• 38:52
  I'm
• 38:53
  not
• 38:53
  that
• 38:53
  much
• 38:54
  older
• 38:54
  than
• 38:54
  them,
• 38:54
  but
• 38:54
  that's
• 38:55
  still
• 38:55
  A
• 38:55
  really
• 38:55
  young
• 38:55
  kid.
• 38:56
  To
• 38:56
  me,
• 38:57
  they're
• 38:57
  like,
• 38:57
  yeah,
• 38:57
  I
• 38:58
  listen
• 38:58
  to
• 38:58
  Steely
• 38:58
  Dan.
• 38:59
  Okay,
• 39:00
  sure,
• 39:00
  man.
• 39:01
  You
• 39:01
  do?
• 39:02
  All
• 39:02
  right.
• 39:02
  That's
• 39:02
  normal.
• 39:04
  The
• 39:04
  worst,
• 39:05
  though,
• 39:05
  is
• 39:05
  when
• 39:05
  they
• 39:05
  wear.
• 39:06
  No
• 39:06
  offense
• 39:06
  to
• 39:07
  any
• 39:07
  of
• 39:07
  our
• 39:07
  young
• 39:07
  people
• 39:08
  out
• 39:08
  there,
• 39:08
  but
• 39:09
  when
• 39:09
  they
• 39:09
  wear,
• 39:09
  like,
• 39:10
  Metallica
• 39:10
  shirts,
• 39:11
  and
• 39:11
  you
• 39:11
  get
• 39:11
  tricked
• 39:12
  into
• 39:12
  thinking
• 39:12
  they
• 39:12
  like
• 39:12
  Metallica,
• 39:13
  but
• 39:13
  they
• 39:14
  don't
• 39:14
  actually.
• 39:14
  They
• 39:14
  just
• 39:14
  like
• 39:15
  the
• 39:15
  shirt.
• 39:16
  So
• 39:16
  there's
• 39:16
  got
• 39:17
  to
• 39:17
  be
• 39:17
  some
• 39:17
  sort
• 39:17
  of,
• 39:17
  like,
• 39:17
  reverse
• 39:18
  invitation
• 39:19
  where
• 39:19
  we
• 39:19
  can
• 39:19
  say,
• 39:19
  hey,
• 39:21
  you
• 39:21
  like
• 39:21
  the
• 39:22
  shirt?
• 39:22
  Let
• 39:22
  me
• 39:22
  introduce
• 39:23
  you
• 39:23
  to
• 39:24
  someone.
• 39:24
  Yeah.
• 39:25
  Like,
• 39:25
  at
• 39:25
  least
• 39:26
  try,
• 39:26
  right?
• 39:28
  I
• 39:28
  have
• 39:28
  fallen
• 39:28
  for
• 39:29
  that
• 39:29
  so
• 39:29
  many
• 39:29
  times
• 39:30
  because
• 39:30
  they'll
• 39:30
  come
• 39:30
  into
• 39:30
  class
• 39:31
  and
• 39:31
  they've
• 39:31
  got
• 39:31
  these

  So

  up

  To

  out?
• 40:28
  So
• 40:29
  I
• 40:30
  just.
• 40:30
  The
• 40:31
  other
• 40:31
  day,
• 40:31
  I
• 40:31
  was
• 40:31
  just
• 40:32
  hanging
• 40:32
  out
• 40:32
  in
• 40:32
  my
• 40:32
  living
• 40:33
  room
• 40:33
  talking
• 40:33
  to
• 40:33
  my
• 40:34
  roommate
• 40:34
  about
• 40:34
  books
• 40:35
  we've
• 40:35
  read
• 40:35
  in
• 40:35
  the
• 40:35
  past,
• 40:36
  whatever,
• 40:36
  and
• 40:37
  we
• 40:38
  started
• 40:38
  talking
• 40:38
  about
• 40:38
  Patrick
• 40:39
  Rothfuss
• 40:39
  and
• 40:39
  how
• 40:40
  Doors
• 40:40
  of
• 40:40
  Stone
• 40:40
  is
• 40:41
  never
• 40:41
  gonna
• 40:41
  come
• 40:41
  out
• 40:42
  because
• 40:43
  he
• 40:43
  hates
• 40:44
  us.
• 40:45
  But
• 40:45
  that.
• 40:45
  That
• 40:46
  did,
• 40:46
  like,
• 40:46
  throw
• 40:46
  me
• 40:46
  back
• 40:47
  into
• 40:47
  the
• 40:47
  Kingkiller
• 40:48
  Chronicles.
• 40:48
  And
• 40:49
  if
• 40:49
  you.
• 40:50
  If
• 40:50
  you're
• 40:50
  one
• 40:50
  of
• 40:50
  those
• 40:51
  people
• 40:51
  who've
• 40:51
  heard
• 40:51
  the
• 40:51
  name
• 40:52
  Patrick
• 40:52
  Rothfuss
• 40:53
  and
• 40:53
  you've
• 40:53
  heard
• 40:53
  about
• 40:54
  Name
• 40:54
  of
• 40:54
  the
• 40:54
  Wind
• 40:55
  and
• 40:55
  that
• 40:55
  kind
• 40:55
  of
• 40:55
  thing,
• 40:55
  and
• 40:55
  you
• 40:56
  just
• 40:56
  aren't
• 40:56
  sure.
• 40:57
  Just
• 40:58
  read
• 40:58
  slow
• 40:59
  Regard
• 40:59
  of
• 40:59
  Silent
• 41:00
  things.
• 41:01
  Experience
• 41:02
  his
• 41:02
  writing
• 41:02
  style.
• 41:03
  It's
• 41:04
  short.
• 41:04
  It's
• 41:04
  a
• 41:05
  novella.
• 41:05
  It's
• 41:06
  like
• 41:06
  120
• 41:07
  pages.
• 41:08
  Like,
• 41:09
  it
• 41:09
  takes,
• 41:10
  you
• 41:10
  know,
• 41:10
  a
• 41:10
  few
• 41:10
  hours
• 41:11
  maybe,
• 41:12
  to
• 41:12
  read
• 41:12
  for
• 41:12
  you,
• 41:13
  and
• 41:13
  then
• 41:14
  just
• 41:14
  dive
• 41:15
  into
• 41:15
  the
• 41:15
  rest
• 41:16
  because
• 41:17
  if.
• 41:18
  I
• 41:18
  bet
• 41:18
  you'll
• 41:18
  like
• 41:19
  it.
• 41:19
  But
• 41:19
  if
• 41:19
  you
• 41:19
  don't
• 41:19
  like
• 41:19
  it,
• 41:20
  then
• 41:20
  you
• 41:20
  don't
• 41:20
  like
• 41:20
  it,
• 41:20
  and
• 41:20
  you
• 41:20
  probably
• 41:21
  won't
• 41:21
  like
• 41:21
  the
• 41:21
  rest
• 41:21
  of
• 41:21
  the
• 41:21
  series
• 41:22
  either.
• 41:24
  Well,
• 41:24
  thank
• 41:24
  you
• 41:24
  for
• 41:24
  that
• 41:25
  recommendation.
• 41:26
  I,
• 41:26
  as
• 41:27
  I
• 41:27
  have
• 41:27
  been
• 41:27
  saying
• 41:27
  since
• 41:28
  March,
• 41:28
  have
• 41:28
  been
• 41:28
  reading
• 41:29
  every
• 41:29
  Matt
• 41:30
  Deniman
• 41:30
  book
• 41:30
  and
• 41:31
  I
• 41:31
  just
• 41:31
  finished
• 41:31
  Dungeon
• 41:32
  Crawler
• 41:32
  Carl
• 41:32
  and
• 41:33
  then
• 41:33
  I
• 41:33
  read
• 41:33
  one
• 41:33
  of
• 41:33
  his
• 41:34
  older
• 41:34
  books,
• 41:35
  Kaiju
• 41:35
  Battlefield
• 41:36
  Surgeon,
• 41:36
  which
• 41:37
  sounds
• 41:37
  ridiculous
• 41:38
  and
• 41:38
  it
• 41:38
  is
• 41:38
  ridiculous
• 41:39
  because
• 41:39
  it's
• 41:40
  lit
• 41:40
  rpg,
• 41:40
  which
• 41:41
  is
• 41:41
  always
• 41:41
  ridiculous.
• 41:42
  But
• 41:42
  I
• 41:42
  love
• 41:43
  it
• 41:43
  and
• 41:44
  it's
• 41:44
  kind
• 41:44
  of
• 41:44
  a
• 41:44
  depressing
• 41:45
  story.
• 41:45
  But
• 41:45
  I
• 41:45
  just
• 41:46
  want
• 41:46
  people
• 41:46
  to
• 41:46
  read
• 41:47
  all
• 41:47
  these
• 41:47
  Matt
• 41:47
  Deniman
• 41:48
  books
• 41:48
  with
• 41:48
  me
• 41:48
  so
• 41:48
  that
• 41:48
  I
• 41:49
  can
• 41:49
  talk
• 41:49
  about
• 41:49
  them.
• 41:50
  Also,
• 41:51
  go
• 41:52
  watch
• 41:52
  Superman.
• 41:53
  I
• 41:53
  loved
• 41:53
  it.
• 41:54
  Fantastic.
• 41:55
  I
• 41:55
  know
• 41:55
  there's
• 41:55
  going
• 41:56
  to
• 41:56
  be
• 41:56
  an
• 41:56
  episode
• 41:56
  about
• 41:56
  Superman,
• 41:57
  so
• 41:58
  check
• 41:58
  that
• 41:58
  out.
• 41:58
  But
• 41:59
  Superman
• 42:00
  is
• 42:00
  really
• 42:00
  good,
• 42:01
  at
• 42:01
  least
• 42:01
  in
• 42:02
  my
• 42:02
  opinion.
• 42:02
  Yeah,
• 42:03
  I've
• 42:03
  not
• 42:03
  heard
• 42:04
  anyone
• 42:04
  say
• 42:04
  it
• 42:04
  was
• 42:04
  bad.
• 42:04
  So
• 42:05
  far
• 42:05
  I
• 42:06
  loved
• 42:06
  it.
• 42:06
  And
• 42:06
  honestly,
• 42:07
  if
• 42:07
  I'm
• 42:07
  being
• 42:07
  honest,
• 42:08
  they
• 42:09
  have
• 42:09
  really
• 42:09
  under
• 42:10
  marketed
• 42:11

• 42:12
  Like

• 42:13
  got
• 42:13

• 42:13
  put
• 42:13

• 42:14
  crypto
• 42:14
  stuff
• 42:15
  out
• 42:15
  there
• 42:15
  for
• 42:15
  people
• 42:15
  like
• 42:16
  me
• 42:16
  who
• 42:16
  just
• 42:16
  want
• 42:16
  to

• 42:17
  all
• 42:17
  the
• 42:17

• 42:17
  stuff
• 42:17
  because
• 42:17
  that's
• 42:18
  why
• 42:18
  I
• 42:18
  went
• 42:18
  to
• 42:18
  see
• 42:18
  it
• 42:19
  and
• 42:19
  then
• 42:19
  I
• 42:19
  ended
• 42:19
  up
• 42:19
  really
• 42:20
  liking
• 42:20
  the
• 42:20
  movie.
• 42:20
  But
• 42:21
  the
• 42:21
  dog
• 42:21
  is
• 42:21
  what
• 42:22

• 42:24
  as
• 42:25
  he
• 42:25
  should.
• 42:27
  But
