Like marriage is a ministry, it's work, like 504 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like and so I just 505 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 3: think for women and men because I can already see 506 00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 3: the comments. 507 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 2: And that's fine. He's paying all the bills and it's. 508 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 4: So basically I'm a higher is a woman a hired help? 509 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying, like is your partner hired 510 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 3: help because you pay the bills. That means you don't 511 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 3: have to pick up your draws.

I mean, if 519 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 3: you want to cut somebody out, it's a mother fl 520 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 3: what's your mama had to do with it?

And that's why I 663 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: go so hard on this to put try to like 664 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: kind of balance it out. You know. 665 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 3: I'm more concerned with messaging because Danny is a sinner, 666 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 3: we all are. 667 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 2: Center is gonna send it's a character? 668 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, is there a redemptive art? 669 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 3: What is what's our messaging? What story are we telling? 670 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 3: What messaging are putting out into the world. That's what 671 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 3: I care more about, because even Jesus praised the shrewd 672 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 3: servant who was stealing essentially, Yeah, because I mean so 673 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 3: I tell people that storytelling is spiritual because what did 674 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 3: Jesus do in order to get his message? 675 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 2: Stories? 676 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 3: Storytelling is a ministry and that's why that's why there's 677 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 3: so much darkness in Hollywood, because the enemy understands how 678 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:33,719 Speaker 3: powerful storytelling is. 679 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 2: Right. I think that's my point. 680 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 3: Like, yes, and so I don't mind a character who's 681 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 3: a sinner. I send too. I might not send the 682 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 3: same way she does, but what is our message? That's 683 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 3: that's where you know, I'm trying to tweak things here 684 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 3: and tweak things There's like and I catch things from 685 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 3: a you know, the female perspective, and like we've had those. 686 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: Conversations, yeah, where we're like, Okay, where is she going? 687 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 4: Is? 688 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 2: What are we doing here? What's the story we're telling? 689 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: And then we're able to go back and say, okay, 690 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: like this or this is fine, but we need to 691 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: see where she's going. When you say the redemptive arc, 692 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: where is this going? And house can she redeem herself? 693 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: That's one thing I love about Denzel when he plays 694 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: all these characters. And he talked about training day and 695 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: he said, yeah, he was doing all these horrible things, 696 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: he said, but at the end he did. 697 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 2: Originally he didn't die. 698 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: He said I wanted him to have or he did die, 699 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: but he said, I wanted it to be brutal. 700 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 2: He was like, and that's why it was as bad 701 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 2: as it was, He said, I need. 702 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: Them to understand when you do we're on these are 703 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: the consequences, Like you can't just get away with it, 704 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: you know. 705 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: And it made me look at it different. But just 706 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 2: listening to you, even just. 707 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: Now, really helped me kind of process it and not 708 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: be so judgmental of the character, like overthinking it because 709 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: my parents always like, it's sorrytelling you're just portraying a 710 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: character that's not who you are. But I'm like, but 711 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: what is somebody out there is really taking that Fatima 712 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: serious and like she's always carrying a gun and ready 713 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: to book up on people and think that's the way 714 00:33:58,800 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: to live, you know. 715 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 2: So I was always like mindful of those things. 716 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 3: And I understand that and I agree with that. I 717 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:11,399 Speaker 3: think it's the job of us, Crystal in your mind, 718 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 3: to be and embody our beliefs in our life, yes, 719 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 3: our characters. And now if I can't say this, I'm 720 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 3: sure you can cut it. But we got this discussion 721 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 3: for season ten storyline is like, if this is not 722 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 3: going to serve a purpose, then I don't know why 723 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 3: we're doing it. 724 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:31,479 Speaker 2: Because we've done this. 725 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 3: Right, Yes, it's brutal. What are we saying? What is 726 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 3: the point of it? And I think that's what storytellers 727 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:45,919 Speaker 3: have to take into account, not just entertainment, because there 728 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,479 Speaker 3: are young girls watching us. And that's why I said 729 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 3: it on Twitter this season with Jonah. I said, it's 730 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 3: important for you to know, ladies and gentlemen, that we 731 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 3: have to stop putting the onus on girls to not 732 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 3: be attacked. 733 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, when we talked about that too, and that 734 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: when we're on the phone. Yeah, just because she's wearing 735 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: a short dress, she's asking to be raped. 736 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,720 Speaker 3: Non men have to start teaching men to be safe. 737 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 3: And yes, I understand there's always going to be criminals 738 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 3: in the world, but good girls get attacked too. 739 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 740 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 3: Bad things happen to good people too. Yeah, so how do. 741 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 2: We explain that? Yeah? How do we put the onus 742 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 2: on the girl? Then? 743 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 3: Right, she wasn't drinking, she wasn't wearing anything wrong, she 744 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,240 Speaker 3: wasn't teasing anybody. 745 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, she was at the library, right, she. 746 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 2: Was out jogging in the park. Yeah. 747 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 3: Okay, ladies, and you to take self to finished classes. Okay, 748 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 3: she took a self to finished class. He had a 749 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 3: gun yeah, So I think it's most important for us 750 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 3: to understand what stories we're telling, what's the messaging. And 751 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 3: I understand what you're saying about you know, Fatima and 752 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 3: Danny and all of that, But I just think that 753 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 3: things like having Danny in therapy and having Fatima be 754 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 3: the one who referred the therapist that matters to those 755 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 3: And I think that, you know, every TV show can't 756 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 3: be the chosen. 757 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 2: Right right. 758 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: Right, you know who else? I talked to Divine Franklin 759 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: about this. I always talk to people who I know 760 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: are are strong in their faith about when I have questions, 761 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: and he was like, Crystal, he said, there's so many 762 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: different characters in the Bible. And he was like, so 763 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 1: what we're doing is just like just we're acting. We're 764 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: playing characters in real life. And he said, in those 765 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: characters in the Bible were living their real life at 766 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: that time. 767 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 4: He said, you had all different types of people. And 768 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 4: Sampson was an acting baby, but hello, he was not acting, 769 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 4: but he was. But he's still failful. He's still fail 770 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 4: for it. 771 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 2: Seriously. 772 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: So I've had these conversations with a lot of people, 773 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: just especially they're in the industry, but also of the faith. 774 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 2: They're like, how do you feel about this? 775 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 3: But also, you don't control. You're not in the writer's room. 776 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 2: I'm not in the writers. 777 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 4: You don't control. You don't control what your character does. 778 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 3: I mean obviously where we are, Thankfully we're in this 779 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 3: space to be able to call on Mone and be 780 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 3: like yeah, yeah, saying but I also don't think it's 781 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 3: realistic to try to have every character be a saint. 782 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 4: No, because it's almost isn't it almost. 783 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: Self righteous if we think we have to play perfect 784 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 3: characters if we ourselves aren't perfect. I'm not saying that 785 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 3: to you, but I'm saying like, because I did have something. 786 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 3: I'm saying that because I did have a church lady 787 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,720 Speaker 3: email me season one about Danny. 788 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 2: Wow, I just ignored it. Yeah, I was just like 789 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: mm hmmm, mm hmm. It's hypocritical, Like it's self righteous. 790 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 3: I mean, no, like I don't want little girls to 791 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 3: live the way Danny lives. But I still don't think 792 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 3: Danny's deserved the stuff she went through, you know what 793 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 3: I mean. 794 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 2: Like, so I just. 795 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 3: It is it is a tightrope, but I think it's 796 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 3: also just understanding. Like Devon said, like, look at the 797 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 3: people God used, come on, Rahab is in the lineage 798 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 3: of Jesus, like when you look at Matthew, Yeah, that 799 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 3: working girl. 800 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is in the lineage of work is m. 801 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 3: So I don't think it's about God looking for people 802 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 3: who are perfect. It's about God looking for people who 803 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 3: have hearts that are looking for him. It's not to 804 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 3: say that we continue and sin so that grace may 805 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 3: have bound me. But yes, no, but I mean, yeah, 806 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 3: I think playing a character who is imperfect is it's 807 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 3: not only natural, but why would people watch it if 808 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 3: it's not relatable? And then it's my job as a 809 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 3: door tell her to have some message in there. Yeah, 810 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 3: that I'm trying to download to people. 811 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: Right, I love that.

But 836 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: they had a pastor on set praying every day. 837 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 2: But the Deliverance, but I know that. And then in 838 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: the I didn't. 839 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: I never watched it, but I've watched a lot of 840 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 1: the commentary about it when people were getting online talking 841 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: about it. The importance of binding demons in the name 842 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: of Jesus, and that was like the biggest part takeaway 843 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 1: from that movie. And I was like, Okay, I guess 844 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 1: if I had to watch it. When I see stuff 845 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,439 Speaker 1: like that, I'm like, it makes me more comfortable. 846 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 2: Because I know you can. They did cover that in 847 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 2: the movie. That's yes, Yeah, so that's good. But I'm scary. 848 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 3: That's why I stopped watching that show Evil. I like 849 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 3: that show a lot. I liked it, but I realized 850 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 3: why they didn't talk about the power of the name 851 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 3: of Jesus because the show have been over in two minutes. 852 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 3: Wouldn't beinish show it be short, wouldn't even been a shorter, 853 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 3: been a skit, like because they tremble at the name 854 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 3: of Jesus. Yes, you see what I'm saying. So, I mean, 855 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 3: I believe in portals being opened up. I believe in 856 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 3: I believe that demons have territory, like when Jesus cast 857 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 3: Legion out of the gentleman and the gatherings, and they 858 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 3: were like, don't make us leave this area, let us 859 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 3: go into the pigs, and then they went into the water. 860 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 3: But water is a body too, that's why it's called 861 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 3: a body of water. Come on, they need to stay 862 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 3: in their territory. Yeah, And I believe that demons have 863 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 3: like territory on blood lines because of you know, Great 864 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 3: Granny putting roots on Grand dadd because he wouldn't stop 865 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 3: messing with Shirlene and now now this, now there's the 866 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 3: devil has a demonic contract with this bloodline because of 867 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 3: Grandma playing in which craft and not realizing the ramifications 868 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 3: of it. 869 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 1: No, you aresocated.

It was one of those things that 1042 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 1: kind of scared me, and I was afraid to invest 1043 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 1: in people and their businesses for a while, and I 1044 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,319 Speaker 1: to this day, I just when we were talking about it, 1045 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about that in a while. 1046 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 2: I want my money back now. 1047 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 1: Man, Man like I had the fellow of the guy 1048 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: was dated at the time, and he was just sending 1049 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 1: us in circles. 1050 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 2: But that was like that was I mean, it was 1051 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 2: a mistake that I made. You think it was a mistake. 1052 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 2: It wasn't mistake. It was just a bad investment. Yeah. 1053 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: He just wasn't an integral person. See that's why I'm 1054 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 1: slow to do stuff. 1055 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1056 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 1: I think that's why it's hard for me to like 1057 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: even do business with people, like let's do this together, 1058 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 1: because I just don't know how you're going to act, 1059 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, Like I got good people around me now 1060 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 1: where I trust him.

So that's somebody that I know, like if 1063 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: we did business together, he's not gonna like screw me over, 1064 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 1: you know. 1065 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 2: But it's it's hard. That's always yesterday asking chat GPT. 1066 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 3: Is it legal to do a mental health screening before 1067 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 3: hiring someone? It needs to be legal, No, because people 1068 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 3: be pre hospital dealing with you. 1069 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:31,560 Speaker 2: No, seriously, And I don't know. 1070 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 3: I don't know what you want me to do because 1071 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 3: I'm human too. I make mistakes too. I'm dealing with 1072 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 3: things too, and and I just yeah, it's tough. You'd 1073 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 3: be trying to help people, trying to put people on 1074 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 3: work with people. 1075 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. But that's the other thing that I think. 1076 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 3: Part of the reason why I haven't done as much 1077 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 3: investing too, is because I'll see something about somebody, but 1078 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 3: then I'd be still trying to make it work. 1079 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 2: It's a lack of trust to myself too. Yes, I 1080 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 2: know exactly what you mean. 1081 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and be feeling like a bad person because 1082 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 3: they're so nice. But I'm like I can just mm, yeah, 1083 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,879 Speaker 3: yeah something yes, and you gotta trust that. 1084 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,760 Speaker 1: You have to trust that God has given us that 1085 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: that's that spirit of discernment that He has blessed us with. 1086 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you there's been so many times, just 1087 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 1: like you were, I've ignored it and it came to 1088 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: buy me in the But every single time, every single time. 1089 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like now. 1090 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 1: Like for me, say things are like real estate, like 1091 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,879 Speaker 1: I'll buy a house in a heartbeat, you know, any 1092 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 1: type of property, I'll do that. It's just that that's 1093 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: a safer, low risk investment for me that I know 1094 00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: I can control, you know, I have a little more 1095 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: control over it. But when it comes to investing in 1096 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: people and really taking a risk with other people, it's 1097 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 1: really that really damaged me. 1098 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 2: It really did. Yeah. 1099 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 3: The other thing I was thinking too, about a relationship, 1100 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,440 Speaker 3: I was like, because that's how this one more talking 1101 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 3: about how God wanted to heal her disappointment because she 1102 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 3: realized that if God were to send the right person 1103 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 3: in her life, she would still see life through the 1104 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 3: lens of disappointment. And would you even be able to 1105 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,879 Speaker 3: open up to him and trust him. I'm like, because 1106 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 3: out of all the videos that I suggested to me 1107 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 3: that day, that one did, and I was like, oh. 1108 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 2: That's good. He's healed me from disappointment. 1109 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,320 Speaker 3: Tell me from the disappointment and the lack of trust. 1110 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 3: Because if it's a good dude, you're gonna sabotage it. 1111 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 3: I don't even think it's I think that's part of it. 1112 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 3: But I think it'll be more so like the only 1113 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 3: people like if I'm a boundary person. 1114 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:39,880 Speaker 2: You know me, I'm a boundary person. I'm kind of guarded. 1115 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 3: I'm like, but like you can still see it's like, yeah, 1116 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:47,920 Speaker 3: you know, you're a decent human being, so you're not 1117 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,359 Speaker 3: gonna try to climb over those boundaries. Right, So if 1118 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 3: he's a decent person, he's gonna be like, I like her, 1119 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 3: but I don't think she's I wouldn't even he wouldn't 1120 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,759 Speaker 3: even feel like he had the opportunity to be like, hey, 1121 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 3: so yes, but somebody who is a narcissist will be like, 1122 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 3: I can break down those boons, you know what I'm saying. 1123 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 1: But is he a narcissist or somebody that like really 1124 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:10,799 Speaker 1: likes you is not going to give up. 1125 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:18,359 Speaker 3: I think that a good man will be in proximity 1126 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:22,840 Speaker 3: and will be It's kind of like when people rescue dogs, 1127 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 3: they just sit. They'll sit there for an hour until 1128 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 3: the dog comes to them. But human beings don't have 1129 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 3: that type of time.
