00:00I have a powerful urge to communicate with you, but I find the distance between us insurmountable.
00:25There is a crack.
00:28And if we don't fix that crack, it doesn't matter how solid this building is, we will
00:33crumble.
00:34And I just want you to know that I think this new direction you're taking us is exciting.
00:38We are no longer a congregation that says, my way is the only way.
00:44The Lord is telling me you are going against his word.
00:49Yes, I got that, Brother Joshua.
00:52If you really believe what you say, you believe you are not my brother, then you're free to
00:56leave this church.
01:05You're saying that absolute tolerance requires intolerance of the intolerant.
01:13My advice to you is to be patient, to sit with it, to pray, to have an open heart,
01:22and the understanding will come.
01:25What happens when you tell a congregation they don't need to believe?
01:29What do you want me to do?
01:31What I want you to do, I don't want you to do because I want you to do it.
01:34I want you to do something because you believe it.
01:46They say your wife is leaving you.
01:48Where did people hear that?
01:49You never consulted me, you never told me you were struggling with something.
01:53That tells me that I am not on the same level as you.
01:55They say people don't attend the church anymore.
01:58Attendance went down.
01:59They say the church has gone back into debt.
02:02We've hit a rough patch.
02:03I believe what I believe because I know it's true.
02:07But why do I know it's true?
02:10It's a feeling.
02:12And where did that feeling come from?
02:14God.
02:16I'm praying for you, brother.
02:33I'm praying for you, brother.
