Episode Transcript
[00:00:04] Speaker A: Hey, everybody. Welcome back to grow tension. This is a podcast where we are a father daughter duo. I'm with my dad, doc. How you doing today?
[00:00:12] Speaker B: I'm doing good.
[00:00:14] Speaker A: Part of the heartbeat of this podcast is, while we are learning and growing, we want to help share with you what we are learning so that you can grow also right alongside with us. And today we have one of our favorite topics. We like to choose different topics to kind of hit people where they're at. But this is our favorite topic.
[00:00:34] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:00:35] Speaker A: So today we're gonna dig into scripture and who God is. But first, tell me something fun. Dad, what's new?
[00:00:44] Speaker B: Well, we're gonna sell our house and move to a one floor house that's right in your neighborhood.
[00:00:51] Speaker A: Yeah, I was just saying we're gonna be able to film the podcast in your house coming up soon. Yeah. We are so excited for that. You'll be right. You'll be a 1 minute drive or a five minute walk, or maybe we'll have to get you a golf cart.
[00:01:05] Speaker B: Or I'll ride my motorcycle over.
[00:01:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
Okay. Well, I'm really looking forward to that. I love now the whole Collings clan is going to be in a five minute radius outside of our brother J, who lives in Vermont. That sucker needs to come home.
[00:01:21] Speaker B: Yes, he does.
[00:01:22] Speaker A: I miss him and love him. Okay, so today we're gonna look at psalms 145. And I have been thinking a lot about something that you said so often. In our meetings, we have time where you just teach us something good, a good idea, and it's part of your leadership style. Every time we meet, you teach us a good idea.
[00:01:45] Speaker B: We have to add value to people who come to our meetings.
[00:01:49] Speaker A: And so you were taking us through psalms 145, and you were saying that sometimes our idea of God can be so vague that it's hard to think about him in the right way. Expand upon that for our audience so.
[00:02:07] Speaker B: You can test this in your own self.
When you think the thought of God, what images come to your head.
And if you think the thought of God and it's nebulous and you don't really know what to attach to it, that's a problem.
Or if what you're attaching to the word God is things that people have taught you that aren't really true, that's not healthy.
So a lot of people think that God is angry and vindictive.
So when they think the thought God, they think that God is angry, and they want to keep a safe distance from him.
On the other hand, if I think about God, the way he reveals himself in the Bible, something in me wants to draw close to him.
[00:03:08] Speaker A: Yeah. It's funny, because I've been thinking a lot about there's times in our lives where we're gonna fail, and people will say, failing is good, and you gotta fail to get better. But no one really ever teaches you what to do when you fail, you know? And so I think specifically, when it comes to God, if we aren't careful, we can feel like a failure more than we can feel like a friend to God. And so part of thinking properly with God is, who is this friend of mine? What does he reveal about himself to us?
And that was one of the things you said to us. Is he. The way we know God is because he reveals himself, and one of the best ways he reveals himself is through scripture.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:03:55] Speaker A: So, psalms 145, you've kind of looked at this, studied it, and broken it up into about six stanzas, correct? Five, five. And then it's a response and a response. I'm sorry. So five stanzas and then a response. And so the way we understand stanzas in the Bible, how if you're looking at your Bible right now and you open up to psalms 145, how could they clearly see?
[00:04:20] Speaker B: So if you opened your Bible and you looked at psalm 145, and then you looked at the. Between three and four, there's a double space.
That means that's a stanza. And if you look between seven and eight, there's a double space. That's a stanza. So the stanzas are marked for us. But even if they weren't, we could mark them out ourselves because they carry a dominant idea in the poem.
The dominant idea creates the stanza.
[00:05:00] Speaker A: Okay, so the author of psalms 145 is David.
[00:05:03] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:05:03] Speaker A: And.
[00:05:05] Speaker B: Well, we think it is.
It's a praise of David.
[00:05:10] Speaker A: Best guess, best summary of. Okay, so the first stanza, it talks about the greatness of God, and we see it in verse three. It says, great is the Lord and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable. So explain to me if it's unsearchable, like, how do we define that? And what does that look like?
[00:05:32] Speaker B: So the psalmist says, when you start thinking about God, let your idea of God be associated with the great things you can think about in the world.
The sun is great.
A beautiful day is great.
A panoramic view of nature is great. Start connecting with God, the concept of greatness, and then push yourself to think beyond the greatness that you can compare God to, to a greatness that is uncomparable. God is greater than anything you can compare him to. His greatness is beyond our comprehension.
A billion years from now, we will be learning new things about the greatness of God because he is infinite.
[00:06:39] Speaker A: Okay, so put this into context of you are.
It's just a normal day. How do you think about the greatness of God in a normal day?
[00:06:52] Speaker B: So if I'm. If I've got something hard I'm working on, I remind myself, God is great. This is hard for me, but it's not hard for him.
If the challenge. If the challenge is a little overwhelming, this might overwhelm me, but it won't overwhelm the greatness of God.
If God asked me to do something that's clearly too hard for me, this. I'm not great enough for this, but God is great enough for it.
[00:07:26] Speaker A: Could you substitute great with big?
[00:07:31] Speaker B: Yeah. Big is limited to space, though. I want to think of great in terms of completely sufficient, awesome, competent in everything.
[00:07:51] Speaker A: Yeah. We are starting a weekly midweek service, and one of the prayers has been that God is just going to show up in these great and awesome ways. But when you start to break down how to actually do a weekly service, it can be overwhelming.
And so I was meeting with one of our interns, and we were just praying and seeking God. And the heartbeat that I wanted to share with her is that God wants to do good and mighty things in this world. He wants to partner with us to do this. So sometimes when life can seem overwhelming, we have to know and cling to that God is with us, that he is great, and that he's walking alongside of us, and it is going to happen if we trust in him, seek him, and do our kind of side of the deal, you know?
[00:08:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Sarah.
I want to do things that are harder than what I can do, because then I have to have God, and life's an adventure. That way, when we play it safe and we only plan to do what we can do comfortably, we kind of say to God, we don't need you. I want to be where I'm desperate and say, God, if you don't help me, I'm going to fail.
[00:09:07] Speaker A: Yeah. We get one life. I want to live it with an adventure.
[00:09:10] Speaker B: Absolutely.
[00:09:10] Speaker A: I want to live it with purpose and meaning.
Okay. So when we think about God is great and he's revealing himself to us through the things that you had said, what would your response be to people that maybe feel the hurt of God or have. Have made it God's business?
I'm not saying this right. Do you understand the question I'm asking, like, when you are blaming God for all the bad.
[00:09:41] Speaker B: That is. That is a symptom that I really don't understand who God is.
When I am, when I am accusing him, or when I am challenging his competence or goodness, it is a warning sign to me that the person I am calling God is not God.
I have invented a God, and I have given him attributes, but they're not really who he is.
The next stanza is going to get us there.
God shows us who he is by what he does.
[00:10:32] Speaker A: Yeah. Read it for us. Where are you at?
[00:10:35] Speaker B: I'm going to start at verse five.
On the glorious splendor of your majesty and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
They will speak of the might of your awesome deeds, and I will declare your greatness.
See, when I really know who God is, I start connecting his character with the awesome things he has done. And the Bible is a catalog of the awesome works that God has done.
[00:11:14] Speaker A: I think I might have talked about it before, but I remember years ago really struggling with some of the scripture, because in it, I wasn't looking for who God was. I was looking at what was going on around the people or things that, I don't know, seemed unfair somehow to me. And I remember you saying, when you truly believe that God is good, you will see his goodness in all of it. And so look for his goodness. And it shaped the way I started to think.
The filtering process of our brain, the reticular activating system.
We program what we look for.
[00:11:53] Speaker B: Yes, we do.
[00:11:54] Speaker A: And if I have a misunderstanding about God, then I see those misunderstandings. But if I can think about God in the way scripture tells us, in the way he's meant to be thought about, then I start to see it even in the hardest parts of our life.
In fact, you and I, we did a cc midweek where we talked about, I think it's called endurance. We didn't really title it, but we use scripture to kind of go through some of the hardest times of your life. And maybe what I'll do is release it here on the podcast so that they can listen to that, because I think that was extremely helpful. When you're going through the hard, how do you see the good? Or how do you see God properly? So let's do that. I'll release that. This is going to be released next week, and I'll just release it in the same week. So we'll do two podcasts back to back next week.
[00:12:49] Speaker B: Sarah, the first thing, the unholy one did to mankind is he made them doubt the goodness of God, and he's played that same trick through every generation.
[00:13:03] Speaker A: Yeah. And it's like, hey, wife, come up with something new if that works.
[00:13:06] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:13:07] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. So when you think about the wondrous deeds of God and the greatness of who he is and his mighty works, tell me what that practically looks like for you.
[00:13:18] Speaker B: It's rehearsing the Bible. I mean, the great works of God in creation, the great works of God in the life of Abraham, the incredible work of God in the life of Joseph, the miraculous work of God in Moses delivering the children of Israel, the unpredictable greatness of God's work in the victories that David won over his enemies, the goodness of God, the greatness of God in the prophets, the unpredictable greatness of God in the return after the babylonian captivity.
The whole life of Christ, every page of the gospel, is the great works of God, the book of acts, God in the church.
[00:14:22] Speaker A: It doesn't stop there, because it is part of our history, too.
[00:14:26] Speaker B: Yes, it is.
[00:14:27] Speaker A: And when we properly think about God, even if we look back on our life and we can say, oh, man, this was a hard time, and I was lonely. But here's how God showed up, and I can rehearse my life. It's one of the healthiest things I can do, is go back and look and see how God moved throughout my life when I knew it and when I didn't. So not too long ago, Jacob and I sat down, and we were young parents, and it kind of shaped a lot of our history together. And we went out on a date, and we purposely sat and we thought back in all the ways that God worked and moved. And by the time we were done, we were both in tears because we could look back and see what we couldn't see at the time. But just the hand of God directing and guiding and shaping and bringing us to where we're at today. Where my baby is graduating high school tonight.
[00:15:25] Speaker B: Dad, that's a beautiful thing.
[00:15:27] Speaker A: My baby's graduating high school. They're all adults.
[00:15:30] Speaker B: Yeah, but guess what? That boy is going to pack his suitcase.
[00:15:34] Speaker A: I know. Don't rub it in. He's leaving me.
Didn't you say something like, if you wanted to have adult children, what did you say?
[00:15:42] Speaker B: If I wanted to have adults, I wouldn't have had children.
[00:15:46] Speaker A: But they're all here in my home right now, so I'm gonna live in that moment.
[00:15:49] Speaker B: Yes, we are.
[00:15:50] Speaker A: All right, so this takes us when we keep going. So the first stanza is the greatness of God. The second is his mighty works. And now it gets a little bit more specific.
[00:16:00] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:16:01] Speaker A: So let's look at verse five, eight and nine. And I like how you said, this is the hinge.
[00:16:06] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:16:07] Speaker A: So if you think about here's these two verses. This is the hinge. And then we've got two other stanzas.
I like this being the hinge.
[00:16:17] Speaker B: I do too.
[00:16:18] Speaker A: God is so good and I love it. All right. Verse eight. The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. The Lord is good to all and his mercy is over all that he has made. Talk to us.
[00:16:34] Speaker B: I want to think this. This is what I want to think about God.
So I want to explain some of these words. Grace. Is God treating me better than what I deserve?
Every time I think the word God, I want to thank the one who treats me better than I deserve.
Only God. Only God has divine grace. The rest of us have.
We have limited grace.
[00:17:09] Speaker A: This is a good point because I think we only can shape our life basically on experiences. And when you think about God, sometimes we insert experiences. So maybe you had a bad dad. And when you hear, like, you know, God the father, you start putting experiences in of some. Something unhealthy. And so say it one more time how you said it.
[00:17:37] Speaker B: God is always going to treat me better than what I deserve. It's who he is.
And when I thank God, I want to thank the one who always treats me better than I deserve. Then the next word is mercy.
Mercy is God's response to human misery.
[00:17:58] Speaker A: Yeah, I really like that.
[00:18:00] Speaker B: When I'm miserable, I want to think God is the answer to my misery.
[00:18:07] Speaker A: I think this shapes how we fail too, then. So if I think about God in the kind of way that says he's going to treat me better than I deserve in the moments where I failed, or in the moments where I haven't treated the people right that he's put in my life, or the moments where my anger got the best of me. Or whatever your fail might look like, knowing that you have a God who wants you to come to him because he is going to treat you better than you deserve. Treat you better than you might think.
That's a safe place to land.
[00:18:41] Speaker B: Oh, yes, it is.
[00:18:42] Speaker A: And every time I feel like it's our gut reaction to not want to go. Yeah, right.
[00:18:49] Speaker B: Because we're thinking improperly about him.
[00:18:51] Speaker A: Correct. I'm thinking about the times I've gone to the people in my life and how poorly it's gone. And what's funny is every time I go, I am met with this grace. I am met with this mercy, where I feel miserable about something. God shows up, and there's like, a gentleness and a peace and a calmness or a call to something better.
[00:19:13] Speaker B: Right. Hebrews says we have access to the throne of grace, where we will receive grace and mercy and help in time of need. It doesn't get any better than that.
[00:19:29] Speaker A: No, it doesn't. And what a waste of time wallowing when we can go to the throne of grace. Yes, I love it.
[00:19:40] Speaker B: Slow to anger. God does not. God is not quick tempered with me.
He doesn't fly off the handle with me.
He doesn't overreact and over respond. A steadfast love means God loves me because he's loving, not because I'm lovable.
God loves me just as much when I disappoint him as when I please him.
[00:20:08] Speaker A: Let's say that a little louder for the people in the back, because that is such important to not just hear, but it's important to take into your heart, your mind and your soul and to marinate in it.
[00:20:20] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:20:20] Speaker A: God loves you just as much when you're a good girl or a good boy as you are when you're failing on the mountain or in the valley.
[00:20:29] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:20:30] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:31] Speaker B: And then it says, because don't you.
[00:20:33] Speaker A: Think sometimes we feel like we can earn God's oh, yeah.
[00:20:36] Speaker B: Or I don't deserve it, or you can lose it.
[00:20:40] Speaker A: Yeah. So then it's this rat race of trying to stay in the median instead of knowing you are loved right now as much as you will ever be loved.
[00:20:48] Speaker B: That's right.
And then he says, God is good to all.
And I want to emphasize the all here, because actually there are 17 alls in this chapter.
Every single being God is good to in some way, God even treats the most wicked better than what they deserve.
God has some goodness for absolutely every living being.
His goodness is infinite and capable of providing something for the very best to the very worst.
[00:21:38] Speaker A: And I think sometimes we can think more highly of ourselves, and sometimes we can think lower of ourselves. And so there are moments where it's like, yep, I get that. But there are moments where it's like, I need to think about this. And he says, all 17 times in this scripture, and it's not. It is for all.
[00:21:59] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:22:00] Speaker A: Considering especially you in all your stages.
[00:22:05] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:22:05] Speaker A: Amen.
[00:22:06] Speaker B: And I like to think that there are maybe that person that I'm annoyed with. God is good to them in some way. And maybe he wants.
[00:22:18] Speaker A: Do you like to think about that?
[00:22:20] Speaker B: Well, I want to. I want to do better. I want to do better. Maybe today is the day. God wants to be good to that person through me.
[00:22:30] Speaker A: I like other psalms that David does when it comes to that.
[00:22:33] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:22:35] Speaker A: But I like your holy answer. I like it and I respect it. And I'll want to be better too.
[00:22:40] Speaker B: Oh, I'm striving to be better at it. I have not arrived.
[00:22:44] Speaker A: All right, so then we move into the fourth stanza here.
[00:22:48] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:22:49] Speaker A: And what does the fourth stanza represent in your life?
[00:22:51] Speaker B: This is about the reign of God, the sovereign reign of God.
[00:22:55] Speaker A: Okay, so what does that mean?
[00:22:58] Speaker B: It means that your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom and your dominion endures throughout all generations.
It means that they will speak of the glory of your kingdom and tell of your power.
The world is not out of control.
Life is not happening randomly.
God has a sovereign rule over all.
[00:23:26] Speaker A: Define sovereign.
[00:23:28] Speaker B: Sovereign means absolute authority. It means rightful dominion.
It means.
[00:23:36] Speaker A: And dominion is another way of authority rule.
[00:23:40] Speaker B: Yeah.
God has not only the right to govern everything, he has the capacity to do it. He's infinitely wise. He's infinitely good. He is infinitely powerful. There is no limit on God that would make him not able to rule well.
His rule is righteous.
Everything he does is absolutely right.
[00:24:14] Speaker A: What's the passage where it says he works all things out for the good of those who love him?
[00:24:18] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:24:20] Speaker A: Sometimes one of the best ways you get through those tough spots or you get through the hard parts or where you're struggling is to think about this, is that God is ultimately in control. And even though right now it doesn't feel like I want it to, even though right now it hurts maybe more than I knew it would, or it's harder than I thought it would be that ultimately God is going to work all things out.
[00:24:46] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:24:47] Speaker A: And when I think about, you know, a lot of stuff coming up with the new election, and there's just a lot of stuff that you can think and worry and stress, but it's like ultimately God is sovereign. God is in control. How does this play out in your daily life?
[00:25:08] Speaker B: Well, when I'm at my best, I say, dear God, you know what's happening here and I'm counting on you to guide me.
I want to be part of how you make this work out. Right.
And when I'm at my worst, I doubt.
I say, where are you? This isn't going the way it should be going.
[00:25:32] Speaker A: I like how you connected yourself to it, though, where you said I want to help be a part?
[00:25:36] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:25:37] Speaker A: What a great insight. You want to be a part of what God's doing in the world of the good work. And so when you're thinking about the sovereignty of God, you're saying, how can I partner with you? Oh, I love that.
[00:25:51] Speaker B: Yes. You're in charge. I'm on your team. What's my assignment?
[00:25:55] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:25:57] Speaker B: I also like to think that it's safe for me to try really hard things because God has the ultimate say.
[00:26:08] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:26:10] Speaker B: Back in the day when I was negotiating with banks and they were being unpleasant, I had the security that ultimately God is sovereign, the kingdom is his, and he'll have a way to get me what I need.
[00:26:30] Speaker A: Yeah. That was when we were trying to build a new building and purchase the land. Yeah, man. I think that's immensely helpful. I love when you think about God the right way. I just. I love it because it changes, it gives you a hope, it gives you a future. Instead of staying stuck in places that I think, like you said earlier, the unholy one wants to keep you stuck.
[00:26:53] Speaker B: Right.
[00:26:53] Speaker A: Because if you're stuck and not moving.
[00:26:56] Speaker B: You know, when Shea had her stroke, I remember praying.
We want the doctors to do everything the best they can, but we also believe that you are greater than the doctors, that they serve your purpose. And so please grant them all that you can grant them so they can do your kingdom work.
[00:27:23] Speaker A: Yeah. Yep.
Alright, let's go on to the fifth stage because this one is, there's something you just said that leads right into it, that God is sovereign and we are praying for the best doctors. But really, at the end of the day, it's God who's providing.
[00:27:44] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:27:45] Speaker A: So when we look at this fifth stanza, we see this powerful idea of the provision of God.
[00:27:50] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:27:50] Speaker A: Verse 18, the Lord is near to all who call on him. To all who call on him. In truth, he fulfills the desire of those who fear him. He also hears their cry and saves them. You had a really cool thought about the desires in this idea, so could you share that with us?
[00:28:10] Speaker B: So we often think about God in a sense that my God will provide all your needs according to his riches and glory in Christ Jesus. So that God only provides what I need and my desires really aren't important to him. But the psalmist says very plainly that your personal desires are meaningful to God.
I believe with all my heart.
The way this works is God has things that he wants to do in the world and he works in our hearts and he aligns our desires with what he already wants to do.
[00:28:56] Speaker A: Yeah.
Yeah. At its best.
[00:28:59] Speaker B: At its best, yeah.
[00:29:00] Speaker A: Because there are, I think, inside of all of us really beautiful, healthy desires, and then there's some really unhealthy desires. Right. But the beautiful desires I love. You had said specifically that you. How old were you when you got the vision of the church?
[00:29:18] Speaker B: Yeah, 28.
[00:29:20] Speaker A: 28.
And you had this idea of what the church could be. And you said that God put those desires in your heart because he wanted this church in the world.
[00:29:33] Speaker B: I believe that.
[00:29:34] Speaker A: And so I think there are things that maybe other people push down or say they're not what you need to be doing in your life, but really maybe they're a beautiful desire that God has put in you that you shouldn't give up on.
[00:29:52] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:29:53] Speaker A: That you should pursue, that you should keep going after.
[00:29:56] Speaker B: I believe that.
[00:29:57] Speaker A: I think the. In the scripture where it says not my will, but your will be done, I think there, there is place in each of us that there. I don't know. I'm excited about this because I was thinking about what I want cc midweek to look like. It's fresh in my mind. So sorry for talking about it so much today, but I want young college students to feel vibrant and alive for Christ. And I want there to be just a movement at Christchurch at what God's going to do in the age of those kids.
[00:30:33] Speaker B: Absolutely.
[00:30:34] Speaker A: And so I've been praying it and thinking about it, and I was like, that is the desire of God. That is not some good thought that Sarah thought up of. That's something I think God placed inside of me.
[00:30:45] Speaker B: I do, too.
[00:30:46] Speaker A: And I think when you can, you can verbalize what that looks like, maybe it's in your home or with your marriage or with your kids. I think it is a good thought from God. And I think it's awesome.
[00:30:57] Speaker B: Right? I have to. I have to. Nobody can answer these questions for me. What do I want and why do I want it?
And then do I believe in a God who wants to give me my desires as much as I want them?
Or have I made God stingy? That I have to negotiate with him and wheel and deal? Are I have to somehow or another, yeah.
[00:31:36] Speaker A: It's up to us somehow as opposed to who he really is. So let's just recap it really quick. Psalms 145 gives us a really great, beautiful thoughts and reveals the character of God. And in it, the first stanza reveals the greatness of God.
[00:31:55] Speaker B: The greatness of God.
[00:31:57] Speaker A: In the second stanza, it reveals that he is a God that does mighty works. He's active in the world. He's doing good things. It's not just the past. It's the present, too.
Then we see the goodness of God. And that when we think about God, we need to think that he treats us better than we deserve. And God responds to our misery with his mercy.
And he's slow to anger. Anything else that you've been taught or people try to show you, ignore it. Slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love. That's the hinge. And then our fourth stanza, we see that God is sovereign, that he has ultimate authority, and that he's going to work it all out.
And then.
[00:32:45] Speaker B: And when he does work it out, it's going to be splendor. It's going to be. It's awesome. This is all going to be better than what you think.
[00:32:54] Speaker A: And then we see the provision of God, that he doesn't just meet our needs, which is an awesome thing. Thank you, God. But he also meets the desires of our heart.
[00:33:02] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:33:03] Speaker A: Okay, so when we. I want to wrap up here. When we see God in this way, psalms 145 ends with how the human heart should respond. Would you like to read it for us?
[00:33:17] Speaker B: My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord and let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
That is the natural impulse of the heart that is looking at God properly.
[00:33:33] Speaker A: When you look at God properly, there is. There is praise.
The impulse of our heart is to praise him. What does your praise look like? Mine looks like worship. Mine looks like singing or being goofy. What does. Sometimes it looks like I'm on my knees and crying. What does your praise look like?
[00:33:51] Speaker B: I just like to tell God, thank you.
It usually looks like gratitude, and it's usually me saying, I thank you that you are faithful. I thank you that you are great. I thank you that you provide. I thank you that you're merciful and slow to anger. I like to rehearse to myself in thanksgiving to God who he is.
[00:34:15] Speaker A: Yeah, I think there's, there are indicators of health and indicators of we need to rethink some things. And so I love this verse or this chapter ending with the indicator of health. When we understand God in the way he wants us to understand him, there should be praise and gratitude in our heart. And if it's anything else, it's an indicator to turn back again to him. We've missed him and redefine.
[00:34:48] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:34:50] Speaker A: All right. Any other thoughts?
[00:34:53] Speaker B: This is the kind of a chapter that has to be meditated on.
[00:34:57] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:34:58] Speaker B: It can't be absorbed in one short podcast.
[00:35:01] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:35:01] Speaker B: So I encourage people to pick parts of this and then meditate on it.
[00:35:05] Speaker A: Yeah. I love it. Just choose the one word or the one thought, the one idea.
[00:35:10] Speaker B: Yeah.
