I was. I had my head 12 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: down and it was thinking of what I wanted to 13 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: say this morning. But it kind of it's kind of 14 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: be something I've lived for a long time, and you know, 15 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: for a long time, you know, I had a lot 16 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: of faith in people. You know. It's strange too, because 17 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: you know, you know, my mother was a Sunday school teacher, 18 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: so of course I grew up around it, knowing the 19 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: scriptures and things like that. Not not a lot of them, 20 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: but you know, the ones I retained. But having her 21 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: as a mother was was a huge help and understanding 22 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: about faith. But even with that, as I grew up, 23 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: I began to put a lot of faith in people. 24 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: And you know, I figured, you know, just like everybody else, 25 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: you know, man if I could just meet this person, 26 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: or if I could just sit down with that person, 27 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: or man if I could just get this person to 28 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: hear my ideal, or man if if this person could 29 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: hear my track, or man if I could just get 30 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: this in the hands or somebody in the know. I was, 31 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: like everybody else, I thought that way. You know, I 32 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: actually thought that if I could get in a certain 33 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: situation with a certain person, that if a certain person 34 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: were to meet me, that you know, it could change 35 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: everything for me. Oh man, Oh how wrong I was? 36 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: Oh how wrong I was? How long did I spend 37 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: feeling that way? And how many of you out there 38 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: possibly have felt that way before? You know, like even 39 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: in a relationship, this is the person for me, and 40 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: you know, you just lay claim to that, you know, 41 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: not necessarily being a fact, but you just lay claim 42 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: to it. This is the person for me, This is 43 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: the person that I want to spend the rest of 44 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: my life with. You know, sometimes you know, we just 45 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: lay claim to stuff and it's not always what's in 46 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: our best interests, or it's not always a fact. It's 47 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: just what we decided we want it. And I was 48 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: guilty of that, just like anybody else. And I spent 49 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: a lot of years in my life putting faith in people. Man, 50 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: if I could tell you anything this morning, it's to 51 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: stop putting your faith in people and put your faith 52 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: in God where it counts the most. I mean, you 53 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: can get something out of this one. See, here's a 54 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: deal about a relationship with God. It's the same all 55 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: the time. He never changes. His word is one absolute. 56 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: His word doesn't have loopholes in it, none of that. 57 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: It's this is what it is. He's very clear. Now, 58 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: you can deviate off your end at a bargain, but 59 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: it don't stop what he says from being true. But 60 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: if he asks you to do something, if God asks 61 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: you to be a certain way, to do a little 62 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: something a certain way, and you don't do it that way, 63 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: then you know you could still possibly get by for 64 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: a while. But don't you understand that his end of 65 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: the deal stays the same, and as long as you're 66 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: not doing it the way you're supposed to, the results 67 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: are not going to be what you wanted to be. 68 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: And I did this for years and years and years, 69 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: and I counted on people, and you know, I got 70 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: myself in a lot of situations. And I got out 71 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: one a dire situation that I'd been in for a 72 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: number of years. But he had protected me from years 73 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: prior to that. I didn't even know what was going on, 74 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: and then he made it away. It made me aware 75 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: of the problem. And then, man, lord ha mercy, I 76 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: was in a dismal situation. And then at the end 77 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: of the year, I was free, free from it all. 78 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: But it was a decision that I had made that 79 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: led up to that, and in going through that process, 80 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: I had to learn something. Man. I learned a lot 81 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: about people. See, if you want to learn about your friends, 82 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: if you want to learn about your people people around you, 83 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: Get yourself in some trouble, get yourself in a situation. Oh, man, 84 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: you start looking around. Man, the field get real clear 85 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: when you're in trouble. The field clear is out when 86 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: you're in doubt, when you don't know what to do, 87 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: when you need help, it get real clear on the 88 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: play and field, then don't it. Oh, But when things 89 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: is going right, it's time for a party we throw 90 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: in a celebration. We were gonna we're gonna do one 91 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 1: down here. Oh man, there's plenty of people on the field. 92 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: But but but get yourself in a situation. You find 93 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: out rather quickly that old no, old no, everybody ain't here. 94 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: And that's when I started learning. And I'm telling you, 95 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: I had to start learning this for real until I 96 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: finally got it to stop putting my faith in people 97 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: and put all of mine in God where it counts 98 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: the most. Now is that to say that there are 99 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: people that you can't trust. No, that's not what I'm saying. 100 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: I ain't say you can't trust him, but you can't 101 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: dump your faith in him. I got it all riding 102 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: on what he say. I got it all riding on 103 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: what she say. Na, Na, No, I hear you saying it. 104 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna keep my own on this situation because 105 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: I hear you saying it. But I'm gonna take this 106 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: faith of mine and instead of putting it in people, 107 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it in God where it counts the most. 108 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: Because his word is absolute. What he say he gonna do, 109 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: he gonna do what he says. He's not gonna tolerate. 110 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: He's not gonna tolerate. Now, you can make it, you 111 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: can make it tolerable for yourself, but he's not gonna 112 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: tolerate it. And that's just the end of the line. 113 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: And so you know, I'm wondering how many people out 114 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: there finding themselves in a situation like me, or maybe 115 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: you've gotten yourself in a situation because you put your 116 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: faith in some people and now you wound up in 117 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: a different type of situation. Now, let me ask you 118 00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: whetting people that the only one that I found when 119 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: I was in my deepest trouble, when me and my 120 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: wife were in our darkest situation, was God. Is the 121 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: only one, was the only one who was just right there, 122 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: right there, all the way through. Now, let me explain 123 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: something to you. Because you have this relationship with God, 124 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: it does not mean, it does not mean now that 125 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: it won't get it won't still be a situation, you understand. 126 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: But what He will do is protect you during that period. 127 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 1: He'll cover you during that period that it is a situation. 128 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: He will give you the strength to overcome the situation 129 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: when it turns into a situation. Then when he cracks 130 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: it open for you and the sun is bright and shining. 131 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: What he don't want you to do is when he 132 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: gets sunny again, to forget about him, who was there 133 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: when it was dark for you. See, I used to 134 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: do that too, you know I was Oh, man, I 135 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: did it. I'm telling you right now, I did it. 136 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you man, when I learned a very 137 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: serious lesson and I watched some people I thought were 138 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: friends of mine just sort of casually remove themselves from 139 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: the situation. Then I said, okay. Me and Margie looked around. 140 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: We said okay, it's just me, you and God, and 141 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: we started conducting ourselves accordingly. So when it's sunny for us, 142 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: we remember God. We stay prayerful, we keep talking to him. 143 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: We thank him for the sunshine, we thank him for 144 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: the dark days that he allowed us to do, who 145 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: allowed us to survive it and turn it into sunny days. 146 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: And we talked to him constantly to protect us of 147 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 1: our future enemies. And that's what the deal is. So 148 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: if I was everybody, I would stop putting your faith 149 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 1: in people and put your trust in God where it 150 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: really does count the most, It really really does. You're listening, 151 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, man, I have your attention please, as 152 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: I always ask for on a daily basis, but as 153 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: you can probably give me credit for when I asked 154 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: for your attention.

Yeah, you're listening to show time 195 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 1: now for asked Steve. Okay, Steve, here's a question from 196 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: Sonia in Detroit. Okay. Sonia is from Detroit. From our 197 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: Homestation Mix ninety two three, she says, Dear Steve, I 198 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: live with my mother because I've been ill and I'm employed. 199 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: I recently purchased a lottery ticket and wrote my mother's 200 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,599 Speaker 1: name on the back because she has better luck than me. 201 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: Now it turns out that the ticket was a winning ticket, 202 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: but she is not giving me the money. My Christian 203 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: mother does not believe in gambling, but now that I won, 204 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: she wants to keep the money for herself. I can't 205 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: believe that. What should idea say? That's the loveliest question. 206 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: When is it a rule where it's the law that 207 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: Christians don't gamble. I be in a Vegas man and 208 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: a Christian myself, I must hold your mother's rule that 209 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: she may not go to gamble, but Christians have a 210 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: tendency to gamble. Next point I think is your mother. 211 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: It depends to see. Obviously, this is not a huge 212 00:14:55,400 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: ticket where it's like megaball several hundred million. This is 213 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: one of the tickets pick three. She wants some money. 214 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: You know, you might y'all might have won ten thousand, 215 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: five thousand maybe something like that. Yeah, that's a nice 216 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: chunk of jack. Now here's the deal. You just said 217 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: that you wrote your mama's name on the back of 218 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: the ticket. She had more luck. And obviously you told 219 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: your mama that you wrote her name on the back 220 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: of the ticket. Now here's my other question, and here's 221 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: three things. Like him. You've been staying with your mother 222 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: because you ill, and you ain't working. So now when 223 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: you about the ticket, were you able to lead a 224 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: house and buy the ticket? Or where your mama outside? Where? 225 00:15:54,880 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: And now if your mama bought this ticket and rolled 226 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: her name on the back of it, you damn write. 227 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: Your mama ain't giving you nothing. If you want to 228 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: lay claim to the money, your mama probably figure you 229 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: old hull. You stand at her house and you ain't working, 230 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: eating groceries and you're using this juice bill electricity is 231 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: you hit a lot of new No, that's that's that's 232 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: cold electric hood electrician and don't cut your juice off. Okay, 233 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: So now hang that she's so bush. So now that's 234 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: why your mama it's not giving you the money and 235 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: it ain't really nothing you can do about it. And 236 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: she's still a Christian because she wasn't a real good Christian. 237 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: She to put your hands out. You're right, you have 238 00:16:54,320 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: some place to live. Girl. So there's there's two things 239 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: you need to know. Two slogans that Christians have developed. 240 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: It's Christian light as a bill, which is what I am. 241 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: I'm Christian Light. And then the one that your mother's 242 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: probably using is Christianity has its privileges, a bill slogan 243 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: and a credit card slogan, and your mama is using both. 244 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: She wants to know what should she do, though, ain't 245 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: damn what she's gonna do. She can't put out she 246 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: too sick to hell. Yeah, if you say something, you 247 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: can't you can't go to work.

So instead of going to 484 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: social media with the means and the ignorant statements about 485 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: what could be wrong, making fun of the water, these 486 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: are human beings who a lot of them are doing 487 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: their time, but their time doesn't have to be a 488 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: living hell, right, they should just do their times. Not 489 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: having drinking water and sewage facilities, I can't tell you 490 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: about the heat, the food, and just the way they 491 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: treat people and they don't have safety around. These people's deplorable. 492 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: And as a nation, we should be better than that. 493 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: With the richest country in the world with the highest 494 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: prison population, we have to do a better job. Command 495 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: Rock Nation, Yeah, we do stave. All right, let's switch 496 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: gears here, time now for today's headlines. Fee ladies and gentlemen, 497 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: Miss ann Trip, thank you, thank you very much, in 498 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: good morning. Members of the House of Representatives delivered two 499 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: articles of impeachment to the US Senate yesterday against Donald Trump, 500 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: thus clearing the way for his impeachment trial, which is 501 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: expected to begin next week. The President says he's not 502 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: worried and expects to be acquitted. However, didn't look that 503 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: way yesterday while the Commander in chief was at the 504 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: White House with Chinese leader signing a new trade deal. 505 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: We're delighted that the Chinese consumers will now enjoy the 506 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: greater access to the best products on Earth. Those may 507 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: grown and raised right here in the USA. Chinese say, 508 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: by the way, the deal is good for them because 509 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: it's what they wanted anyway. At one point, Trump looked 510 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: at the Republican lawmakers in the room, though, and he 511 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: urged them to get to work on something else. It's 512 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: not going to matter because it's going very well. But 513 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: I'd rather have you voting than sitting here listening to 514 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: me introduce you. Okay, they have a hoax going on 515 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: over there, let's take care of it. See. Administration officials 516 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: say they expect the trial to end, by the way, 517 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: in under two weeks. On the subject of the Congress's 518 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: effort to alter the War Power Act to try and 519 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: limit Trump's ability to wage war without Congressional support, four 520 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: members of the GOP now say they're breaking ranks in 521 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: their radia vote with the Democrats.

A 524 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: federal judgy says that President Trump cannot give state and 525 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: local government's veto power to turn refugees away. Back in September, 526 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: presidents signed an executive order requiring written consent from state 527 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: and local officials before refugees can settle in their jurisdictions. 528 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: That order has been challenged in court. The entire entire 529 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: Russian government resigned yesterday. President Vladimir Putin's already named a 530 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: new prime minister and a whole series of constitutional amendment. 531 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: Excuse me, guys, Federal climate scign to say the twenty 532 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: nineteen was the second warmest year ever, the second hottest 533 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: since they started keeping records in eighteen eighty.

The most popular pet 538 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: in this country is still a dog, next cat, and 539 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: some people like snakes. I don't know. And finally, this 540 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 1: seems like what's going on with me right now? Today 541 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: is National Spicy Food Days.

He then demanded to see their IDs 548 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: and is actually seen on videos saying I got my 549 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: rights to do anything I want to.

You get into the richness of a 564 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: subject when you covered so in Conversations In Black Man, 565 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 1: you discuss racism that's some of the overt racism that 566 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: we face now, and you cover everything from Colin Kaepernick's 567 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: activism in Black Lives Matter movement, the pain of Nipsey 568 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: Hustle's death, and deprid of the Black Panther. Just tell 569 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,240 Speaker 1: us about what was your thinking on putting this book together. 570 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: As you all know, you know often when you do interviews, 571 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: the best parts of your interviews happened before or after 572 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: the mic has turned off. And I've had great conversations 573 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: with people over the years, and you know, I started thinking, Man, 574 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't it be great if I could have those conversations 575 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 1: and bring them to people. And then I thought about 576 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: all the diverse folks I talked to, and so I 577 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: started this idea. In twenty twelve, had to put it 578 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: down because I got a TV project, looked at where 579 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 1: the world is today and picked it back up. So 580 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: what I did is I knew I couldn't get all 581 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: these people in the same room, So I became the 582 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: Lynch Pen. I interviewed forty plus of our top leaders 583 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: and influencers. Let me just give you a quick list. 584 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:55,720 Speaker 1: Maxine Waters, Ian Lavanza Charlomagne and God, Stacy Abrams, Eric Holder, 585 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: Jamel Hill, Al Sharpton, Michael, Eric Dyson, t I Angela 586 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: Ry for Rain. The list goes on and on, Ben Crump, 587 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: Trayvon Martin's mother Sabrina Forth. It's forty of these folks. 588 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: And then I wrote the book as if we were 589 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: all in the same room having a conversation. The Great 590 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,919 Speaker 1: Harabellafani was part of a Killer Mike And each chapter 591 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: is a different subject. And so what I found is 592 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: people tend to be very candid if there's no camera around, 593 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: and so we literally talk about everything. We talk about 594 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 1: black leadership, we talk about the black political muscle, we 595 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: talk about images in the media. You know, I saw 596 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: Tyler Perry yesterday and Tyler has talked about extensively in 597 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: that chapter. You know, people love what he's done as 598 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,240 Speaker 1: a mogul, but there's some people who still have issue 599 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,280 Speaker 1: with the art that he puts out. You know, Black leadership, 600 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: are they doing the job they should do? We reflect 601 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: on Obama's years. So it's a book that you don't 602 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: have to be a political junkie. It's not written academically. 603 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: It's written as if we were all sitting around in 604 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 1: the backyard talking out of barbecue and it's it's very 605 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: very candid. Hey, y'all, hang on right there. Oh, we're 606 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: gonna have more with Ed Gordon right after this sit 607 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: tight you're listening, all right, y'all, we're back and we're 608 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: talking to one of the great journalists of our time, 609 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 1: my man or mister Ed Gordon. Let let's let me 610 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: just touch on one subject that I know it's anyboo 611 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: because about the Colin Kaepernick. Just give me a couple 612 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: of points that you that you would cover talking about 613 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. We'll really talk about activism in general. And 614 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, whether or not we like to support an activist, 615 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: but how far are we willing to go? Tommy Smith, 616 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: the brother for those that don't know, in sixty Olympics, 617 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 1: he and John Carlos had the picture of the fifth up, 618 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: the iconic picture um in protest. He's in the book 619 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 1: as well, and he talks about the idea of what 620 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: they were willing to do. And I have suggested that, 621 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 1: you know, if you really supported Colin Kaepernick, it ain't 622 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: an to buy his Nike shoes. It's not enough. You know, 623 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: one weekend we all should have said, including black players, 624 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: we're just not gonna watch football that weekend. Black folks, 625 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: just don't watch football, Go to the movie, go do 626 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: something else. Black players, all of all gets sick just 627 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 1: one weekend, just one weekend, all of you, including the stars, right, 628 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna do then who's playing that? Because then you 629 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: start to speak from a position of power. Now, is 630 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,320 Speaker 1: it ideally to assume we're all gonna walk in lockstep? 631 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: Yeah it is, because that didn't even happen in sixties. 632 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: But there came a critical point where all of those 633 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,439 Speaker 1: people in Montgomery decided, we're not getting on that bus. 634 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: Yeah right, we all come into Washington to march when 635 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: King calls. And I'm talking about the vast majority. So 636 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: if every superstar, black superstar decided, you know what, they 637 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 1: can't fire us all. We're just not playing the second 638 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: Sunday of next season until they get this right, because 639 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: look at the Rooney Rude two thousand and three. Look 640 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: at the coach that were hired after this season, not 641 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: one black coach. Right, you want to see why things 642 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: haven't changed five years ago? Oscar so white. It's still 643 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: very pale.

Dear Stephen Shirley, I am a 840 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 1: thirty one year old single man. I'm six four and 841 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: I work out five days a week, so I'm in 842 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 1: great physical condition. I am a doctor now, and I 843 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,399 Speaker 1: come from a large family, so to put myself through 844 00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 1: medical school, I worked as a mail dancer and porn star, 845 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 1: and I was able to make a lot of money. 846 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 1: Sex was never a problem for me, and when I worked, 847 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: I was having sex up to five times a day 848 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 1: with all kinds of voluptuous women. I didn't think much 849 00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 1: about sex because it was my job. All of that 850 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: changed when I met a new girl at work. She 851 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: walked into the set and we both were nude, and 852 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: she had the most beautiful body I'd ever seen. She 853 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 1: was a veteran in the industry, and I was intrigued 854 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: that she wanted to work with me. We had sex 855 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: on camera and it was instant chemistry. It was like 856 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:49,399 Speaker 1: we were made for each other. Sex didn't mean much 857 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: to her either, Steve, You're gonna love this line, but 858 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 1: she had to admit that I was very good at 859 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 1: what I did. He ended up being friends with benefits, 860 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: and that's all we could be since she was married. 861 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: There's also an age difference she's older, but that never 862 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: mattered to her and we have been in our situationship 863 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 1: for over six years. To this day. I'm still under 864 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: her spell. She is not happy in her marriage, but 865 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 1: she told me she'd never get a divorce because her 866 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: husband always supported her lifestyle and he has been good 867 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,840 Speaker 1: to her. I love her too, and I want to 868 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 1: be with her. You love her too, Junior. I'm thinking 869 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 1: about moving to a neighboring city to get a fresh start, 870 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: but I'm afraid she will forget about me. Am I 871 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: crazy to think she might have a change of heart 872 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 1: and want me, Uncle Steve, Should I start dating other 873 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 1: women or should I keep shooting my shot with her?

Everybody says 878 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 1: they're not happy in their marriage when you're dating them. Yeah, 879 00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,799 Speaker 1: everyone says that when when they're in an affair, they're 880 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 1: not happy in their marriage. Everybody says that, Um, whooo, 881 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: who are you talking to? Who say it? Yes? You did? Yes, 882 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: she did?

It usually never works out that way. Okay, 893 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 1: it just does. You're doctor. You can get someone.

I mean, 896 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: you're not crazy, but most people who think that their 897 00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 1: wish does not come true. For the most part.

Yes, 968 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 1: come on, Dog, sex didn't mean much to her either, 969 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 1: I guess not. I don't mean nothing to her. We 970 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: ended up being friends with benefits and that's all we 971 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 1: could be sense.

Folks left the room. 1113 01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:16,680 Speaker 1: They went to their room. So after that, it was 1114 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:21,240 Speaker 1: the next morning Yavannia. She packed her bags and left 1115 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 1: went back home to Atlanta. Uh Nini left because she 1116 01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 1: had a show or a gig, you know that she 1117 01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:31,800 Speaker 1: had to host. So she left and the ladies put 1118 01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 1: on their costumes. They party with the Canadians during Carnival. 1119 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,880 Speaker 1: It was a lot like Mighty Gras. They had a 1120 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:39,599 Speaker 1: good time. They looked like they had a lot of fun. 1121 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:43,519 Speaker 1: But then towards the end of the episode, Kenya, she's 1122 01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:47,519 Speaker 1: so wrong for this. She's talking to Tenny. Tanny was 1123 01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 1: the one that hosted the trip. Kenya asked Tanya like 1124 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:56,600 Speaker 1: a hypothetical cheating scenario that she heard uh from a 1125 01:13:56,760 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 1: lady who owns a cookie like a bakery play. Basically, 1126 01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:06,400 Speaker 1: this woman told Cynthia and Kenya that Tanya's fiance flirted 1127 01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:10,040 Speaker 1: with her. So it was kind of like Kenya put 1128 01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:13,360 Speaker 1: that mess out there. She didn't get real specific with Tanya, 1129 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 1: didn't say it was her man Anyway, Tanya was just 1130 01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:19,720 Speaker 1: basically saying, in this relationship with her fiance Paul, if 1131 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:22,479 Speaker 1: she ever found out he was cheating, it would be over. 1132 01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 1: Then she said later that she would just be heartbroken. 1133 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,720 Speaker 1: But that was just a little messy for Kenya to 1134 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:31,280 Speaker 1: even go with that. So you know, everybody was like, oh, 1135 01:14:31,400 --> 01:14:35,080 Speaker 1: the cookie lady said, oh man was flirting with her. 1136 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:37,200 Speaker 1: So a lot of drama with that.

The lawsuit filed on Tuesday in federal court. Uh, 1167 01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:58,599 Speaker 1: they have been at there have been at least five 1168 01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: prisoners who have died in Mississippi. In the maximum security prison, 1169 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:09,000 Speaker 1: Parchment doesn't have enough mattresses for the inmates, cells are 1170 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 1: covered in black mold, and ross sewage is spilling onto 1171 01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 1: the floors. The prison allegedly has a serious water problem too. 1172 01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:20,479 Speaker 1: In the lawsuit, Team Rock Nation claims the drinking water 1173 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 1: for inmates repeatedly fails to meet federal standard safety standards. Also, 1174 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:29,760 Speaker 1: according to the lawsuit, inmates are exposed to serious harm 1175 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:34,440 Speaker 1: and left unprotected because there just aren't enough prison guards. Yogatti, 1176 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 1: David Banner, other community leaders are demanding that Mississippi Governor 1177 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,880 Speaker 1: Phil Bryant make changes or face a lawsuit.

Yogatti said, the lives of countless 1182 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 1: individuals in Mississippi prison they are at stake, and we 1183 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 1: will not stop until this is fixed. So shout out 1184 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:08,760 Speaker 1: to them. Yeah, man, I really do hope this is effective. 1185 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 1: I really really do, because these are things that we 1186 01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:14,280 Speaker 1: really need to be addressed. Look, if a person commits 1187 01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 1: a crime, everybody in prison, first of all, is not guilty. 1188 01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:25,439 Speaker 1: Everybody in prison has not received fair punishment befitting the crime. 1189 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 1: Let's just be honest about this. Now, some people doing 1190 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 1: some time for over juice and yeah, now we know 1191 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 1: that racism exists, it's hard to get these systems to 1192 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 1: admit to it. So what we need, man, is for 1193 01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: things like this to really get behind it. So instead 1194 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:52,640 Speaker 1: of going to social media with the means and the 1195 01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:56,120 Speaker 1: ignorant statements about what could be wrong making fun at 1196 01:18:56,120 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 1: the water. These are human beings who a lot of 1197 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:04,560 Speaker 1: them are doing their time. But their time doesn't have 1198 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:09,320 Speaker 1: to be a living hell, right, they should just do 1199 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 1: their time in humane conditions. Yeah, not having drinking water 1200 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:17,760 Speaker 1: and sewage facilities. I can't tell you about the heat, 1201 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 1: the food, and just the way they treat people and 1202 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 1: they don't have safety around these People's deplorable. And as 1203 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 1: a nation, we should be better than that. With the 1204 01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 1: richest country in the world with the highest prison population, 1205 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:35,639 Speaker 1: we have to do a better job.

I just try to 1232 01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 1: put the same level of effort into becoming a better person. Now. 1233 01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:47,960 Speaker 1: When I fall short, as we all do from time 1234 01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:53,160 Speaker 1: to time, I just accepted and move on. I want 1235 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 1: to take a moment for this subject today. Close remarks 1236 01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 1: would be a little short, I may do it. Tommy 1237 01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:06,600 Speaker 1: sent me a post to sort of give me a 1238 01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:09,640 Speaker 1: thought starter, and it made a lot of sense to me. 1239 01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:12,280 Speaker 1: And I've touched on this subject many times before, but 1240 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:16,240 Speaker 1: it gave me a new set of thoughts. The post said, 1241 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 1: when you carry bricks from your past, you end up 1242 01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 1: building the same house. When you carry bricks from your past, 1243 01:22:31,080 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 1: you end up building the same house. How many times 1244 01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:39,559 Speaker 1: have you met someone, or you know someone, or maybe 1245 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:42,800 Speaker 1: even yourself that something has happened had happened to you 1246 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 1: in your past and you just couldn't let it go, 1247 01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:49,679 Speaker 1: And you try to start something new, and you bring 1248 01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:54,080 Speaker 1: that baggage with you, or you bring them same bricks 1249 01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,679 Speaker 1: with you, and so now you're trying to move forward, 1250 01:22:58,080 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 1: but you're trying to move forward with the same bricks, 1251 01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 1: and you end up like the post, say, building the 1252 01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 1: same house because we simply just didn't let it go. 1253 01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:12,639 Speaker 1: You know, God is really really brilliant man, the way 1254 01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:14,800 Speaker 1: he set this thing up, because he set it up 1255 01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:18,960 Speaker 1: in three parts. He set up the past, he set 1256 01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:23,560 Speaker 1: up the present, and he set up the future. And 1257 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 1: he gave them all names that we could apply to 1258 01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:32,160 Speaker 1: our life to day. The past they simply name that 1259 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:36,160 Speaker 1: history because it belongs in the past. It's a part 1260 01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:42,559 Speaker 1: of history. Now the future, it belongs to the future. 1261 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 1: The reason it don't need another late, another name is 1262 01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:50,240 Speaker 1: because no one knows exactly what it holds. We can 1263 01:23:50,360 --> 01:23:52,840 Speaker 1: hope and want for things in the future, but we 1264 01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:56,280 Speaker 1: don't know what the future holds. It's the future. The 1265 01:23:56,520 --> 01:24:04,439 Speaker 1: past belongs to history, The future belongs to God. The 1266 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:09,439 Speaker 1: present is all we have. And they call it the 1267 01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 1: present because it is a present from God. Because we 1268 01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:18,640 Speaker 1: have now. That is the one thing that we can 1269 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:23,160 Speaker 1: do something about now. We can't control what happens in now, 1270 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,360 Speaker 1: but we can control what we do about now every 1271 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:32,040 Speaker 1: single step of the way. But if you are constantly 1272 01:24:32,160 --> 01:24:37,200 Speaker 1: bringing bricks from your past, which belongs to history, you 1273 01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: will continue to build the same house. So let me 1274 01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 1: simplify this for me. You know what, Steve, Sometimes you 1275 01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: just got to let it go because if it goes, 1276 01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 1: if it's gone away from you, it's gone for a reason. 1277 01:24:56,080 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't need to rekindle that old relationship, it's 1278 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,440 Speaker 1: gone for a reason. Sometimes you don't need to interject 1279 01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:08,599 Speaker 1: that business partner back into your life because it's gone 1280 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,800 Speaker 1: for a reason. Sometimes you don't have to bring up 1281 01:25:11,840 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 1: that issue that you got over ten years ago because 1282 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 1: it's gone for a reason. Sometimes you don't have to 1283 01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 1: let that friend back in your life that wronged you 1284 01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:24,240 Speaker 1: and let them back in your life with the promise 1285 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:29,240 Speaker 1: of day've changed. Well, if you've changed, congratulations, I applaud 1286 01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:31,840 Speaker 1: you and I wish you the best. But I'm not 1287 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 1: fit to sit through to see if the change will 1288 01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,759 Speaker 1: affect our current friendship because it didn't work in the past. 1289 01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:42,240 Speaker 1: That don't make me wrong or evil.

I don't want 1297 01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:07,000 Speaker 1: none of that because I'm allowing God to do a 1298 01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:11,040 Speaker 1: new thing in me, a brand new thing in me. 1299 01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 1: So forget the thing of the past and let God 1300 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 1: do a new thing in you in twenty twenty.
