00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,760
Young Voices for Christ is here to light
your path.

11
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:48,400
Good afternoon.

12
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,160
This is, Clement
and today we're going to be talking

13
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,000
about dealing with stress and anxiety
from a Christian perspective.

14
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,320
Today is going to be just a discussion
with myself and Ope is with me.

15
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,280
So we're
just going to, first of all, start with,

16
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,280
that'll be looking at things along
the lines of everyday challenges.

17
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,120
And, it's just to set the show.

18
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,200
I just want to read a short verse
from first Peter five seven

19
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,200
which says, cast all your anxiety on him
because he cares for you.

20
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,800
So I don't know about you.

21
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:27,720
Is this a subject you feel that you

22
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,720
that resonates with you?

23
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,640
In a sense, yes.

24
00:02:33,640 --> 00:02:39,200
Because even though consciously,
I don't necessarily feel stressed

25
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,560
on the day to day
understanding for sure that it does

26
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,560
manifest, in many different ways.

27
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,160
So, for instance,
perhaps you feel tense, me as well.

28
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,880
I think a lot of things,
even though I would say worry,

29
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,360
I do have to overthink some things.

30
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,240
And sometimes when you think
about those things and not taking time

31
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,600
to actually be still sometimes
and you can and,

32
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,480
processing your body
and your mind, feeling a bit fatigued.

33
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,880
So in a sense, those relate to me.

34
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,080
In the sense that because of that,
because of that,

35
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:16,560
I do try and take active steps
to be still, to evolve.

36
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,640
Whether it's reading,
whether it's playing or meditating

37
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:22,640
or exercising to relieve any stress.

38
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,600
But, yeah, I definitely do relate

39
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,400
to the subject of, you know,
how to manage stress and what not.

40
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,800
Because even though it's not even a, 
so I feel stressed, I know that

41
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,400
your body doesn't lie.

42
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:39,480
And sometimes, even if it's a
you might feel is due to medical things

43
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,720
you might be thinking about or concerned
about on the day to day.

44
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,200
But I just wanted to,
what's become in kind of a society

45
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,320
now that talks a lot about anxiety
and stress.

46
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,920
And I'm just wondering
if it really used to be like this.

47
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,560
Maybe people are recognizing that, well,
maybe society's going to change

48
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,120
because when we
when I think about maybe triggers for me.

49
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:02,880
But like, you know,

50
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,880
maybe I'll just wake up in the middle
of the night and things like that.

51
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,640
It's usually happens because,

52
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,640
I've got time to think about these things,
I guess.

53
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,840
Sometimes I'm paralyzed.

54
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,040
So I just wonder if my if if I was doing

55
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,440
something with my hands
or something physical.

56
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,640
I just wonder if I'd be as anxious.

57
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,920
So, I mean, the kind of look we have here.

58
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,960
Nowadays, where you front of the computer,
you've got all the time in your phone,

59
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,520
and someone's always asking you
to get something done.

60
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,080
Maybe like 75% of all of these things
actually contribute or Landsman.

61
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,080
So it's it's it's like this.

62
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,960
I do think so I would agree,
I think nowadays with what's bombarded

63
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,960
by a lot of very trivial things
and trivial

64
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
concerns to a point where

65
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,040
we all

66
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,880
focusing too much energy into things
that don't necessarily

67
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:06,240
match on or conducive or both of us would,
as you said, you know, when you're busy,

68
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:10,080
you don't really have time
to be pondering, you know?

69
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,640
I don't the nights
and about certain things most okay,

70
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,640
what's the task
and what has been accomplished today?

71
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,960
You've got your plan,
and then you're busy doing that.

72
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,920
But in this age
with, you know, social media,

73
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:24,320
well,

74
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,240
many of the things that we see on TV,
especially with more generation, younger

75
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,960
generation telling us how to do this,
get this quickly.

76
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:35,360
Chase this car, chase this job,

77
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,880
you know, for guys, maybe chase that woman
or try and get this.

78
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,200
There's so much of being constantly
inundated with, I think,

79
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,600
as you said, it does paralyze us.

80
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,880
So I honestly think the change is more so.

81
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,280
We've been bombarded by a lot of things
that are rather trivial.

82
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,720
And so instead of actually
occupying ourselves or doing things

83
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,680
or conducive and, you know,
not being idle, so to speak, we've

84
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,760
we've become kind of burdened
with all these things

85
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,240
that in the world that we're being told
that we should be attaining.

86
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,040
That's how I see it.

87
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:09,480
Yeah.

88
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,200
I mean, I agree.

89
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,520
I'm just wondering, actually,
as part of the topic

90
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,920
we're talking about as well,
how did Jesus himself, handle pressure?

91
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:22,840
Because if you think about it as a human,

92
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,720
as a human being, very famous
human beings raising from the dead,

93
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,720
he's turned water into wine and stuff
like that.

94
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,160
Being so famous
for people pushing all the time,

95
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,160
human, human, you know, Satan
and all that kind of stuff.

96
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,800
As a man, that would have been quite,

97
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,880
stressful, I think, for him.

98
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,640
So I'm just having the,

99
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,880
some things that Jesus did.

100
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,200
Thing one, I think he always tends to

101
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,760
withdraw to a quiet place to pray

102
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,400
for guidance and pressure.

103
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,280
One of the, pressure? Yeah. Those ones,

104
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:05,480
I guess.

105
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:05,680
Yeah.

106
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,960
So I also think there's this thing
about trusting in God's plan.

107
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,800
Because if you think about it,

108
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,800
some of the things that maybe make us
anxious is usually

109
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,800
when we haven't got a plan,

110
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,000
we haven't actually mapped out,
what's the day going to look like?

111
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,160
What am I going to get done?

112
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,480
And so on, so forth.

113
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,480
Yeah.

114
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,640
Yeah.

115
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,400
Praise as well, I think kind of listens to

116
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:36,960
those on radio.

117
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,880
The other day there was a program on radio
four where they were talking about

118
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:45,440
how music is actually quite the same thing
that, although in different cultures,

119
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,720
whatever people call
the healing process was chanting

120
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,840
and dancing
and moving around and stuff like that.

121
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,440
But you can imagine what it must be like
if you just when you go to church and you,

122
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,080
feeling a certain way,
you really get to praise.

123
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,960
It does help to lift the spirits.

124
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,440
It does, it does, it does.

125
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,560
Like one of my one of my favorite,
praise songs is,

126
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,680
no weapon formed against me,
but these are also.

127
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,000
That's a lovely, lovely song.

128
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,160
And it's true.

129
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,560
Praise and worship.

130
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,280
It really does lift the spirits.

131
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,680
I mean, it's meant to, you know, encourage
and, you know, lift up each other,

132
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:31,440
you know, and come together
to, to worship and to honor God.

133
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,640
It definitely does, refocus us

134
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,200
in terms of what I really should be
or I'm not so concerned

135
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,840
or any sort of importance
because, as you said, you know, when we

136
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,640
when we don't was so focused
on not having a plan,

137
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,760
you know, in front of us to do
we do concentrate

138
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,960
anxiety
and become stressed because of that.

139
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:59,800
But as you said, it's about, trying to,
you know, follow God's plan, trying

140
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,280
to hearken into what he wants for us
and and letting him actually take control.

141
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,640
And it's very hard to do as human beings
because we love to be in control,

142
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,320
because that gives us security.

143
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,320
So the hundred percent,
you know, you're right.

144
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,040
That's what I was even thinking that
like I say, trusting in the plan

145
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:17,800
and also having

146
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:19,440
having that work,

147
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:25,520
to keep you occupied because as Jesus
said so many times in, these verses

148
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,600
when he was questioned about, you know,
are you doing his weight in that?

149
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:31,960
I'm about my father's work.

150
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,560
So he's there's a plan to,
you know, plan to do so.

151
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:37,040
It isn't to worry about that.

152
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,040
So he just has to do the work
the Lord has given us.

153
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,720
So I think that was, that does help.

154
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,040
I'm just,
I'm also thinking as well about,

155
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,440
you know,
the practical things that we can do.

156
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,080
So I was told about praying
when I choose, and,

157
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,280
I think journaling as well
might be another good one.

158
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,280
I don't know if that's something
you've ever tried doing.

159
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,840
It's actually funny enough,
is something I started doing.

160
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:07,200
But last year, like on summer time,
I'm going to consistent with that,

161
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:10,320
trying to get back into it.

162
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:11,760
But when I was journaling,

163
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,360
it was definitely help because I was
thinking about me to journal.

164
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,320
And when I start to do it
and I'm actually,

165
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,760
I have, you know, to pay for,
you know, my thoughts, my my concerns.

166
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,800
You know, what God has done for me,
what I'm studying for us.

167
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,760
You always have a reference point
for what

168
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,760
God brought you through
and what God can bring you through.

169
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:36,880
I think it's so important.

170
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,840
Always remember that, like,
you know, it talks about in the Scripture

171
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,920
in Old Testament about there's one
that's always been taught to remember,

172
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:43,960
to write things down.

173
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,000
I remember, you know, of the ancestors
and what he.

174
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:47,360
Yeah.

175
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,040
So, sister,

176
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,920
it's really important
to have that reference point

177
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,000
because you could
easily get swamped by that.

178
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Now, in terms
of what's happening in the flesh,

179
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,120
you might forget
what God's actually was. So

180
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,280
I think journaling is definitely

181
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,880
a great way to alleviate stress

182
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:10,280
and anxiety and,
just to actually have your thoughts

183
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,600
on paper, it's easier for yourself anyway
when you actually written something down.

184
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,640
That's good and actually kind of links.

185
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,280
That actually leads on
to a kind of ideas.

186
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,800
Gratitude is

187
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,120
the power of gratitude
can actually shift perspectives.

188
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,360
So if you're anxious about something
and you're thinking about something

189
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,720
you haven't done or haven't got or,
so you can't achieve,

190
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,720
but then maybe,
like I say, through journaling,

191
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,760
you kind of shift the perspective to,
what I've been able to achieve.

192
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,720
Look what I've got,
you know, that can also reduce anxiety.

193
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,320
So that's I don't know, 
speaking as a 50 something year old,

194
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,400
is it

195
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,400
do you see the
as a, as part of the younger generation?

196
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,040
You have a lot more to worry about that
there's lots not just the immediate

197
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:05,600
things around you, but also all the stuff
that you get constantly fed

198
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:11,120
on the news from climate change
to the in office and stuff like that.

199
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:13,640
That's a good question, uncle.

200
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:18,440
Honestly, how I see it truly is,
you know, this isn't

201
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,400
nothing new under the sun.

202
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,840
So ultimately, the general struggles

203
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,680
we face as human beings in the flesh
isn't actually hasn't actually changed.

204
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,040
One thing has happened
is there's just a lot more present

205
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,560
that we're being told to concern ourselves
with and to worry about.

206
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,760
And because of technology,
our false information

207
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,240
transfers, is really across the world.

208
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:48,440
Things arrive, things
we trusted far sooner than they would have

209
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,440
maybe 50 years ago, a hundred years ago.

210
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:55,160
But the overall concern
necessarily different.

211
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,720
I just think that we're
being inundated by so much.

212
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,760
And so maybe the problems aren't

213
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,800
necessarily different, but more so

214
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,000
our approach to actually dealing
with them is, for instance, if

215
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:09,280
all I

216
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,920
see is if you knew your,
you know, your enemy,

217
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,440
but you're facing some sort of enemy
and you know, okay,

218
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,320
you're not to reside in the area
and and it will come over,

219
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:24,080
they'll breach you and like, you know,
ten days, then at least you're aware of.

220
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,280
Okay,
I know the enemies, you know, attribute.

221
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,680
So I know what strategies are
I prepare, you know, for ten days.

222
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:32,160
But in this generation,

223
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,360
because of what's around
us, things a lot more present enemies.

224
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,920
Let's see what things about more present.

225
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,680
So I see is the way in which we deal
with things to be a lot more,

226
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:44,000
which take a lot of action

227
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,800
much sooner in terms of,
you know, combating what we, we hear, what

228
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,920
we're dealing with as opposed to,

229
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,320
you know, 50 years ago,
hundred years ago.

230
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:55,400
So that's how I see it.

231
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,880
Essentially what I'm saying is
what other humbling is, the enemy

232
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,240
and the challenges are the same,
but how we approach

233
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,240
them is to be a bit
more different because of how present

234
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,360
those challenges are.

235
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,280
You know, so true. Yeah.

236
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,080
And like I said, I mean, everything
we've we have all these conversations now

237
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,320
past nine episodes, and I think
we all talk about how this digital age

238
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,560
kind of accelerates
everything, just, amplifies things.

239
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,800
And you're right now, I think
because, of algorithms and everything,

240
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,640
we are told
what we should consider as important.

241
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,040
So I guess the question
is probably important.

242
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,440
Like, I know you always pray for this
group discernment.

243
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,240
I think it's really important to

244
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,440
continue to have that kind of prayer,
because then you can see

245
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,640
what is and what isn't important.

246
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,760
I want to see
the end of Renewal testaments.

247
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,120
And I've been going through the prophets

248
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,000
and I've mixed up
all the different verses of them myself.

249
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,760
Oh, I should really make a note of that,
because there are some there where

250
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:56,560
it talks about,

251
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,760
I, you know, it was and John was saying,

252
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,840
I talks about God
blinding people to the truth

253
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:09,320
because of the reluctance to kind of
you said they will, not because of that,

254
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,280
they will not, see the truth,
but impressively slaps them in the face.

255
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,880
So when you look at, things around
that, people are saying,

256
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,720
this is important,
you must you must, pay attention to this.

257
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,280
I'm thinking of,

258
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,840
but the first thing to cross my mind

259
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,840
at the moment is Elon Musk, to be honest,
because

260
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,840
he doesn't want to metrics everything
he tweets as newsworthy.

261
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,400
I mean, to control
not everything in tweets as newsworthy.

262
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,400
There are people,

263
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,600
dying in other parts of the world.

264
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,680
There's big companies, listen, people,

265
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,880
there's logging still going on the Amazon
basin and all sorts of things.

266
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,040
But we are, we're not at the summit.

267
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,360
We are slaves to the screen space
of one person's Twitter account.

268
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,760
This is something I think we need to

269
00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:02,920
really just pray for that, to serve
and to know what's really important

270
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,120
or to preserve what you were saying.

271
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,360
I remember this one quite heard recently,
actually, a couple of years ago,

272
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,880
I was like, you know, the elixir
of this century would be the ones that,

273
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,240
I'm able to read or write, but

274
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,920
people, they'll be unable to, you know,
learn and unlearn certain things.

275
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:25,320
And to recognize, you know, the agenda
of what's being pushed towards them.

276
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,320
I remember, you know,
talk to us long time ago about how,

277
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,480
you know, when it comes to the news,
you listen to your work or,

278
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,960
or sources from, you know,
what's the agenda behind it

279
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,160
and what the spirit behind it in terms
of what they're trying to tell us.

280
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:40,400
And is it actually edifying?

281
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,760
Is it actually, leading us, you
know, towards God and is actually true?

282
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,960
And as you talked about
and as we talked about,

283
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,080
you know, today, right now,
I think that this understanding

284
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,160
is, is so important because, you know, 
and it says those things like,

285
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,800
you know, crowd in line
and we have to be constantly vigilant.

286
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,360
And now more than ever, really,
just really in the woods

287
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,960
and really shine
as to what God wants for us.

288
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,800
Because, 
yeah, it's not about being fearful,

289
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,000
but it's really about being vigilant
and not being honest about

290
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,920
what what we're facing.

291
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,080
And when we have an enemy
that is trying to deceive us

292
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,080
because this is in the super world,
we we know that,

293
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:27,080
we're dealing with an entity that is
seeking to make things that they're not.

294
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,280
And this is a mess with our generation.

295
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,280
The younger people, you know, we don't
we don't know much.

296
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,880
I mean, we just got here
and I know more younger.

297
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,560
We think we know everything, but we don't.

298
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,120
And I know Satan.

299
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:43,560
I see the arrogance of, okay,

300
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,520
you know,
I've been in for like 21 or 25 years.

301
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,600
You know, you're right.
You know, you do it.

302
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,400
And we, we, we see this thing of,
you know, the youth not really

303
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,560
respecting the, the seniors and the adults
in terms of the wisdom expression.

304
00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,440
They actually, you know, they have
and I think

305
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,640
that is another aspect
of when we're talking about,

306
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,560
you know, discernment that factors in
we have to be, as younger people,

307
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,760
a little more receptive to what's, 
seniors

308
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,760
are telling us, just in a sense of

309
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,480
they've passed or they passed or youth,
there's insights

310
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,600
into how we navigate things

311
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,960
that will help us, especially since,
as we talked about, nothing is new under

312
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:24,360
the sun,

313
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,520
issues and and the battles we face.

314
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,040
I would change most of the context
in which they occur.

315
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,440
So, yeah, as we just talked about,

316
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,120
praying for that wisdom,
praying for the summit and,

317
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:38,120
leaning on that understanding,
I that's really, really important.

318
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,840
It's very odd sometimes not do that

319
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,840
when you're, you're not focused on

320
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,240
what God's plan is for you
or when you think you know it all,

321
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,520
especially as younger
people tend to move some for a lot.

322
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:54,840
Yeah.

323
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,680
I think the virtue referred to,

324
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,120
I think that you mentioned earlier
on the things for Philippians four eight.

325
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,240
Finally, brethren, whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever

326
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,760
things are honest, whatsoever things are
just, whatsoever things are pure,

327
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,160
whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever
things are of good report,

328
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,200
if there be any virtue, if there be
any praise, think on these things.

329
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,600
And that's a really good recipe
for good mental health skills. Yes,

330
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:24,680
yes, things are going, things are rough
I think earlier this week.

331
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,320
But the message say,

332
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:31,400
it's like it's really depressing
trying to find something, actually.

333
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,440
Yeah.

334
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,000
Pleasant to,

335
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:36,920
listen to.

336
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:42,160
Anything you're getting is to soak in news
about, Well, you mentioned about you.

337
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,840
I don't give in too much. Really?

338
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:44,960
What's going on in America?

339
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,720
And, you know, in the Middle East, but,

340
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,760
yeah, if we take that scripture,
I think that's really which.

341
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:52,680
That's right.

342
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,680
So in itself, it's a

343
00:19:56,360 --> 00:19:58,040
is a good way of stability.

344
00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,040
You got your mental health.

345
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,840
I think myself as a Christian is,

346
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,400
faith does complement doesn't replace
mental health resources completely.

347
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,640
I mean, exercise is great.

348
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,160
Breathing techniques that you might bring.

349
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,160
Yes, meditation as well,
because if you do that to

350
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,120
mostly call it,

351
00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:22,120
smell the roses candle for you.

352
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,560
So there's some real silver,

353
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,400
breathing through your

354
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,400
nose and through your mouth
slowly say a prayer.

355
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,520
Yeah, that can calm the mind,
that can focus on the physical activity

356
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,360
of right there and take your mind off
whatever it is.

357
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,400
It's,

358
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,680
it's kind of kindling.

359
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,880
And I think there's also
this kind of stigma around mental health.

360
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,800
I mean, I've got so Baptist
Church now, but

361
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,040
I'm just one of those prosperity churches

362
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,640
where, especially, back home where

363
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,040
something's going on in the process.

364
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,200
Like it as well.

365
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,200
Well, thank you so much with the Monty
Python sketch with the guys on this, it's.

366
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,160
Oh, it's only a flesh wound.

367
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,680
It's just it's let you know, because.

368
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,480
What,
you're not allowed to have a breakdown.

369
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,480
Not allowed to be stressed
because you're a Christian.

370
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,000
And I just feel stressed.

371
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,480
You're, what's the word for it?

372
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,800
You know, kind of faith.

373
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,440
So now let's just it's over the,
the across the generations.

374
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,760
Or is it just because it's something
I noticed when people are supposed to be

375
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:31,320
successful and so far in church,
they're not with it going through stuff.

376
00:21:31,360 --> 00:21:33,360
And, and faith is a strong enough brother.

377
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,480
Yeah, that's an interesting, point.

378
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,680
And honestly, I, I just mean,
do you see the innocence of what

379
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,800
it's almost like what's what's, you know,

380
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,280
we're not meant to feel
vulnerable is very, very.

381
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,400
I don't think they're quite what
maybe it wasn't necessarily

382
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,840
the most accurate word,
but as normal to feel vulnerable and

383
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,040
understand that, you know,
we we're not always going to be strong,

384
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:06,440
you know, and, human beings in the flesh
won't always be strong all the time.

385
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,440
And that's why, you know,
we have, you know,

386
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:13,880
well, when we must also
when we're not strong enough.

387
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,160
God is strong for us
and also this moment to be.

388
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,840
Well, welcome to our our own strength
on, you know, guidance to God

389
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,880
and Jesus Christ as well.

390
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,840
So, yeah, the notion that we have to

391
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,680
we're not going to feign this,

392
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,680
you know, it's everything is well,
suck it up.

393
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,000
And if you don't, we feel stress
or you feel anxiety that,

394
00:22:38,360 --> 00:22:41,520
you know, you're you're not trusting
God is very, very harmful because,

395
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,560
it's not allowing us to confront

396
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,560
what those, those issues are.

397
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,920
And I think when you're not
confronting it, to be honest with

398
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,400
anything in your life,
because when it strongholds

399
00:22:55,520 --> 00:23:00,640
or, you know, fears, you know, feelings,
then you're leaving a foothold

400
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,720
for those to become, you know, strongholds
and yeah, I definitely do agree

401
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,880
that that is something that reducing
our generation a bit more especially.

402
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,760
And it is kind of an aside, but,

403
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,280
we're being taught to not show feelings

404
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:21,720
or to not commit to things
or to not tell someone you love them or,

405
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:27,200
you know, just just to be human
and yeah, I know I'm rambling a bit.

406
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,600
My thought was good on that a bit,
but I do agree with you

407
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,600
that it's definitely something
that I'm seeing as an issue.

408
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,040
Amongst our generation.

409
00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:37,120
So what
would you be your kind of advice about?

410
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:38,280
Turn that around.

411
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,680
If people from that kind of
have you already of, yeah.

412
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,120
Everyone wants to belong.

413
00:23:44,120 --> 00:23:46,240
Everyone wants to run with the herd.

414
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,920
But some people say they don't
want to run, but they want to be.

415
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,600
I want to be unique,
end up running with the unique herd.

416
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,600
But how do you get people to change

417
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,800
that kind of way of looking at things?

418
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,720
Good question.

419
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,720
How do we get them
to change their perspective?

420
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,720
Well, I think ultimately

421
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,160
I think it starts by recognizing,

422
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,240
first and foremost, you're an individual.

423
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,320
And that's not to say that, you know,

424
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,640
we shouldn't we shouldn't,
we should say community

425
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,680
or gathering or whatnot,
but I think it's good to understand that,

426
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,320
you know, your your feelings
or your own thoughts or your own,

427
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:29,920
and you really have to, think about,

428
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,600
what what what are you

429
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,560
what are you doing or or what thoughts
or things you listening to

430
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,000
that are actually edifying to you?

431
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,680
And I'm going to,

432
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,040
should equipping you to to move forward,

433
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,120
you know, with confidence 
and and in peace.

434
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,880
I think when it comes to you
being a believer, first and foremost,

435
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,800
I mean, all religious or,
you know, God, entities.

436
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,280
So I think as a believer, at least, it's

437
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,600
taken more time to be introspective and,

438
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,080
you know, praying, meditating on,

439
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,640
what,

440
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,960
what your thoughts are,
what you listening to.

441
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,640
And then from there moving forward.

442
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,640
Because I think
once you have a solid base in that, then

443
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000
you just like to be swept away by,

444
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,160
you know, group
think or thoughts and you just like,

445
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,200
please feel pressured in terms of conform
to some way of thinking

446
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,560
because everyone is thinking or oh,
you're less than or you're not.

447
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,800
You're not here if you're not
with this crowd or that crowd.

448
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:38,200
So I think, the core comes from having

449
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,960
that religious record
and just start by being selective about

450
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:43,880
what?

451
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,680
What are you listening to?
What's feeding you?

452
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:50,840
And are you are you believing it
or thinking it because they're doing so?

453
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,200
Or there's something that you actually,

454
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,680
want to cosign or, you know, and it's

455
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,640
not actually answering the question,
but that's the way I perceived it.

456
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:02,840
I think that's what it does.

457
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,760
Stop by a discussion. Introspection.

458
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,160
Yeah. It's more of a discussion
in the interview room.

459
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,560
I was just thinking as well,
what you said about,

460
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,720
you know, being introspective

461
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,720
and taking that time out,

462
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,680
usually listen to, sort of the day
of the month of the day or something.

463
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,160
I saw the radio for radio two,

464
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,360
depending on whether or not
you're Christopher or not.

465
00:26:26,360 --> 00:26:31,080
So morning to the radio
two one on seven, 15 on radio two. And,

466
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,280
I think this was.

467
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,680
This was, something to do with noise.

468
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,480
The noise, the.

469
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,880
Because that's what we're hearing, though,
even about fires or, you know, fights

470
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,880
and wars and elections
and all that kind of stuff.

471
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,720
And the
it was actually I was talking about,

472
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,680
where is it?

473
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,240
I think it's in King's
first King's 1911 to 12.

474
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,240
I, as the Lord said, go out
and stand on the mountain

475
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,880
in the presence of the Lord,
for the Lord is about to pass by.

476
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,800
And if he goes through these,
you know, powerful wind,

477
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,480
you know, the storm surges
within 12 miles apart, just the rocks.

478
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,320
But the Lord wasn't
in the wind of the windows.

479
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,640
An earthquake on the wall was like,
just quick, quick earthquake fire.

480
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,920
Then after the fire came a gentle whisper,

481
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,440
and it was in the still small voice.

482
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,080
That's where it was found.

483
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,520
So all the noises around us. God's made it

484
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,720
so, because it was around us,

485
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,200
we should be focusing on the small, 
still small voice.

486
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,600
But that's what I called it.
That's what it called risks.

487
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,600
And if we do that, then,

488
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,480
cuts down on sizing.

489
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,600
And if Jesus did that
and we get so overwhelmed.

490
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,080
This is a quiet place
as he knows what God is. Yes.

491
00:27:52,120 --> 00:27:55,120
You go inside the walls and talk to people
and save them from themselves.

492
00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:00,320
But you know, so
God is the still small, still quiet voice.

493
00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:05,040
So he goes into the wilderness
and he prays and he trusts in God.

494
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,560
He leaves everything to God.

495
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,560
And then finally he praises God.

496
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,200
So about that as well.

497
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,160
And, you know,
he just rests in the moment.

498
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,720
And I think to be able to do that is

499
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,840
feels like a comfortable place to be.

500
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,160
I think those as well, like you
mentioned earlier on about the Israelites

501
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,080
or these guys are putting themselves
and what God did for them in Egypt, those

502
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,440
kind of testimonies and personal stories,
they can always encourage people.

503
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,840
Whenever you hear stories about how God
helps someone to just see that real,

504
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:40,480
I'm not sure.

505
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,080
I don't do six openings on Instagram.

506
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,840
I know that guy in Los Angeles
where everybody's house around him,

507
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,920
but to the ground,

508
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,920
and this was the only house still standing

509
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:52,760
room.

510
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,160
Yeah, I will send you the link
when I find it.

511
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,600
Every house around him,

512
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,840
that timber that he has.

513
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,840
And he was getting ready,
he was even to the decking outside

514
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,160
that nothing touched it.

515
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,680
Wow. It was like yeah that was
there was a bit of smoldering

516
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,080
one part of his garage,
but he did the whole, the whole street.

517
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
I wasn't like there weren't trees around
in the trees around his building.

518
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,440
So when you see that kind of thing out
coming out, some mold of that,

519
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,560
that's what he said. This is what I think.

520
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,800
I'll see it posted on,

521
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,360
then WhatsApp on Facebook
or Instagram as well, so as you can.

522
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:33,400
So there's no God.

523
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,400
That's what it was just saying.

524
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,400
It was like almost two years.

525
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:38,120
Yeah.

526
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,120
Those kind of stories, they kind of
listing, they kind of give you that

527
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,360
help you get through tough times.

528
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:45,480
And they've been quite a few people

529
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,040
have come out
to actually been talking about sharing

530
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,720
stories
and those kind of stories to encourage.

531
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,720
So people have lost everything
or lost their homes and like, well,

532
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,960
I'm still a life that for me
speaks of gratitude.

533
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,200
So maybe this ought to be the lens.

534
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,720
There as well as

535
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,840
you can be for sure.

536
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,200
And I do think, yeah, 
testimonies like that definitely.

537
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,320
Do, you know, encourage us
and can encourage us and

538
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,040
as you said,
you know, the gratitude perspective

539
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,200
and the mindset is
I think it's so important

540
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,960
because it allows us to contextualize
what what we're seeing and ultimately,

541
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,400
despite, you know, the claims
that come before us in this life,

542
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,040
you know, that is life as much as as good
as life as we see there is suffering.

543
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:36,800
But I do think that having that, 
gratitude, you know, posture,

544
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,520
you know, spirit allows us to,
you know, actually see more and more

545
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:41,960
how much God does for us.

546
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,560
And the fact that we have a lot more to be
done for them to do, to complain about,

547
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,400
even though that doesn't
always appear as so.

548
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:49,920
But when we think about,

549
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,480
you know, how much you know
God does for us on a daily for the years,

550
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,680
you know, the decades,
we do really see that, you know,

551
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:00,240
we actually,

552
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,040
You know, in, in prosperity.

553
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,600
So, you know, despite, 
the things that do before us so

554
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,800
hundred percent, 
I do think that having that growth,

555
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,760
you might say,
well, alleviate stress and anxiety.

556
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,280
And actually, most of in a funny way,
but is the truth

557
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,640
a more realistic perspective for wildlife
actually is.

558
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:21,800
Yeah.

559
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,040
So yeah, absolutely.

560
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,120
Well, it's been a good half hour.

561
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,960
So in called distortion, it's a shame
we couldn't

562
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,960
get the other zone around today,
but I it's a business of my,

563
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,160
But anyway
we're going to our next episode.

564
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,440
We'll, we'll then start talking
a bit more about, social media.

565
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,600
So that'll be another good one
to talk about.

566
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,320
And I think not just because

567
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,680
whenever you say social media, people
think of the evils of social media, but

568
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,600
everything can be turned out,

569
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,600
for us, those who love him,
that's when I see him.

570
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,960
So that's, you know,

571
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,520
let's catch up next week.

572
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,800
Or so then.

573
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:04,200
Till then.
