Right. Good morning everyone. Good morning to those who are online as well. Alright, so let's pick up from where we started last week, the last class. Last class we looked at the introduction of the 5-fold ministry. We saw that the ministry gift is a divine call. It is not a choice that we have. And usually when God calls us, it's aligning to our gifts that He places in us. And very importantly, we looked at this Ephesians 4, 11 through 16. We saw why the Lord Jesus has the 5-fold ministry. It's not so that we can be called pastor or prophet or apostle or get fame or all of that. But He goes on to say that He says, for the perfecting of the saints, so that the saints can do the work of the ministry which will build up the board twice. So we looked at the first chapter and before I go ahead to the second chapter, I just wanted to make a mention of this. Now there are two things. One is there is a difference between ministry function and a ministry gift. So there are two aspects here. We must understand this. There is a ministry function and a ministry gift. Now what is a ministry function? For example, all of us can evangelize. We don't have to wait for the tag of being an evangelist. All of us can evangelize. All of us can flow in the prophetic. All of us can pray for sick people, the working of miracles. All of us can walk in a greater measure of faith. And this is the ministry function. All believers. But then the ministry gift is usually assigned. God gives it to that person where they flow more. The anointing is more towards that gift. You got it? Did you understand? Let me give you an example. Who is the greatest evangelist? Billy Graham? So there is a difference between when Billy Graham evangelizes and preaches the gospel. And there will be a difference when we do it. Why? Because he is flowing in the ministry gift. Now then you will also see the prophetic. There will be people who will be prophetic every time. By nature they are very prophetic. But then you have some believers who every once in three months can prophesy. So nothing wrong in that. It's only that there is a ministry function and there is a ministry gift. Everyone understood? So now when you are flowing in the gifts, don't think about, is this a ministry function or is this a ministry gift? It doesn't matter. As long as you are serving, you are doing it for what? For the building of the saints, a coping of the church. So always remember this. Let's go to chapter 2. The evangelist and Jesus as our example. Now, even as we go ahead, we will set Jesus as our example in all of these three portions. The evangelist, pastor and teacher. So first one is the evangelist. Did the Lord Jesus evangelize? We see that he did a lot of traveling, but he didn't travel more than 150 miles away from his hometown. But he did a lot of traveling, a lot of evangelism. So the Greek word for evangelism, evangel means to proclaim the good news. Let's read Romans 116. Romans 116 is familiar verse. Any one of us can read. Romans chapter 1 and verse 16. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. So what is the primary responsible of an evangelist? The primary responsibility is to minister the gospel, to reach out. But the mindset now is that evangelist is somebody who has these big meetings and only go to different cities have these meetings. That's not only the mindset. We need to come out of that. We can be somebody who is doing ministry in our cities, in our towns, villages. We are an evangelist. When you see the Lord Jesus, when he started off his ministry, he started off with less people. He chose 12. He was there with them. He went to a few places. He went to Judea. He went to the neighboring cities and towns, sharing the gospel. Over time, only after maybe 8, 10 months was when the 100 started coming. After a year, it was thousands. So it was not all of us started. Just like Jesus, even our responsibility is to proclaim the gospel. Now, how did the Lord Jesus function as an evangelist? How many of you here know your calling is to be an evangelist? Anyone here? Like full-time evangelist. Okay, nice. All right. So how did the Lord Jesus function as an evangelist? The characteristics of his ministry, let's look at it. First one, he was empowered. He was empowered. The Lord Jesus was empowered by the Spirit. Now, when the Lord Jesus was... Just picture this, right? The Son of God came down from heaven. Now, he's growing up. There's an anointing upon him already. But the Bible says that when he was baptized, when he came out, the Holy Spirit came as a dove upon him. And he goes on to the desert to pray 40 days and 40 nights. Why would he have to do that? 40 days of not eating is not easy. Now, what would have happened if he didn't pray? Would always ask questions the other way around. What would have happened? Say Jesus got baptized, he went back home, had a nice meal, got some rest, woke up the next day. Okay, today I'm starting my ministry. What would have happened? Would there be a difference in his ministry? No. Because he's the Son of God. But why did he do this? To set an example for us. To set an example, of course, he also... As a human being, he also wanted... He wanted us... He wanted to depend on the Holy Spirit, right? But he was setting an example. 40 days he fasted and prayed and he was empowered. Not only in his Spirit, I'm sure his mind is... He would have come out of that 40 days so strong. Right? The temptations that were recorded was just three. But everywhere it says that the Lord Jesus... Sorry, the devil left him for a while. He would come back every now and then, tempted him but he overcame all those temptations. He was empowered by the Spirit and it was only after that, 40 days when he came out, we could see the miracles that he did. Now, this is a wonderful example for us. If we want to do a powerful ministry, if we want to minister to God, if we want to reach out to people, we want people to be... Their lives to be touched, prayer is important. We need to be empowered by the Holy Spirit. Now I always say this. We can do some things on our own ability, but it will last only for a while. It will last. Example, we want to start a church. We can start. Nowadays, it's nothing, not a big deal, right? Maybe 15 years from now, oh, we started a church, it was very difficult. Now it's not a big deal. Buy one two speakers, buy one mixer and you start... That's all you have to do. All equipment, you don't even have to go out. Buy it on Amazon, they'll come and deliver at home. Nothing wrong. Nowadays, you have one small hall, like this is church, over. Or you can also get a big space. Everyone are willing to give. It's not a big deal, but we can start something. And we can continue also. But if we are not empowered by the Holy Spirit, we will not see good. We will not see. But in that also, God is faithful, right? So sometimes we may not have spent time in God's presence.  God will still heal people. God will still do miracles. God will still touch people's lives because that's who he is. That's what he does. But the Lord Jesus didn't depend on... If you look at his ministry, he didn't depend on those 40 days. I finished my 40 days of fasting and prayer. So it's okay. It will leave me for the next one year, no problem. I've charged up for one year, no. What did he do? Every morning he would wake up, go and pray. And he set the example to his disciples as well. So when we are doing ministry, we need this enormous power. That was a enormous dynamo. Like a dynamite. We need that power. You know why? I can share a couple of instances. There was a time when we... Somewhere I was sharing the gospel. I was just standing, sharing the gospel. I was fully excited. There was nothing. This is about Jesus and how he can save your life. All of a sudden, one of the five guys came and stood next to me. Now, where's the dynamite power? Everything is gone. Everything is gone. Because you don't know how... How many of you have gone through first-hand persecution? You've seen it in your own eyes? Yeah, I'm sure. Is it easy? It's definitely not easy. Because I used to preach, you know, we need the strength of God, we need God. But when I saw that day, these five guys, why six guys, right in my face, you know? And it's scary. They said, what are you doing here? They're not smiling at all. They're not saying, oh, good job. What is this about? Right in my face. I thought, I knew that, you know, they're going to either beat me up or something is going to happen. When was the initial days? I remember saying, no, this is about Jesus. And I was very fearful inside. But then I went back home and I prayed and I said, God, why was that fear there? You have not given me a spirit of fear. What a power, love and sound mind. But why was that fear? Is it because I didn't pray enough? Is it because I didn't trust you enough? Or is it because of my, I let my natural thought, my natural instincts overpower me? It's natural to be fearful. The disciples who were with Jesus, walked with Jesus, saw the miracles of Jesus. They were also fearful. So what about us? So I went back and asked God. And thankfully the Lord ministered, right? He said, for this kind of ministry, in the power of God, you need the anointing. One hour is not enough. One hour just praying. Okay, thank you for fridge washing machine. All those things is not going to help out. Thank you for all the things you have blessed me with. Good day, nice trees, all that was not going to help us. He wants us to rest in His presence. Rest in His presence. When we stay and abide, that's when we are empowered. And over time, some kind of boldness came. Some kind of boldness. And there was situations that came up. And I thank God that God gives us the boldness. I'm not saying that initially itself will be fully bold and strong, but over time it will come. But for that, we must be empowered. And the best example is that of the disciples. So fearful. They were hiding. What happened to them? What happened in the book of Acts? The same disciples. They're standing there. Hey, you put me in jail. You do what you want. I will preach the gospel. What happened two months, one and a half months back? They were running away. That's the difference. When you're empowered, we can do anything. God will empower us. Our ministry will really be blessed, right? And that's what Jesus did. There are a couple of verses. Look 418. Look 418. Maybe one of us can open to Hebrews 2, 2-4. Hebrews 2-4. Look 418. The spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed. The spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me, and then that list. He set the captives free to bring liberty to the poor. But he starts off by saying, the spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me. I always say this. It is only the anointing that can make a difference. Only the anointing. Even if we are preaching a five-minute sermon, if it is anointed by God, it will touch people's life. It will, right? And people will remember it. How many of you remember a sermon you've preached, you've heard ten years back? There will be that one or two sermons because that will be very annoying. Now, I'm not saying others are not annoying. But I'm just saying it would have, like the Lord would have really ministered to you. Right? So that way, when we are anointed, empowered, and we reach out, when we minister to people, they will remember it. Right? There are some things that I remember. I remember this guy in Bible college when I was studying, right? He was from North India. He wouldn't speak in English, but he would come. Every time I see him in the room, he'd be praying. I said, what are you praying so much? And I would feel so insecure because I felt, hey, I'm not praying like this fellow. Because how much he's praying? He's going on and he's kneeling. He'd be kneeling in the room. Same in the rooms that we have. It was something like this, right? We had those same, but he would kneel. He would not even be on the cot. Tell this fellow, he prayed for so long. And he talks in Hindi. He doesn't even know English. I pray. And I remember this sermon. Same way that in the mornings, he would all preach. Same thing. He came up once and he started preaching. 15-minute sermon in Hindi. He's crying. And I looked around. All of us are crying. Half of them didn't understand what is speaking here. But all are crying. And until now, I remember that sermon. He was talking about Lazarus. I remember that. It's 12 years now. I still remember. It's a picture in my mind. How? Because of the anointing. Because of what he did. Five or eight-minute sermon that was, we still remember it. It was anointed of God. When we spend time in God's presence, it will reflect in our public ministry. It will reflect. Right? Hebrews 2-4.  Hebrews chapter 2 from verse 2. Thank you.  One time, he had 5,000 people. At one time, he had 8,000 people. At one time, he had 5 people. At one time, he had children coming to him. Right? So, it is not a ministry that was restricted to a certain place or a certain kind of people. He ministered to everyone. Right? And his ministry was so empowered that the sad thing is that many of them followed him for the miracles. But you see the miracles that he did. Right? Breaking five blows of bread and two fish. Walking on water. And he did it. He did it. He did it. Bread and two fish. Walking on water. Powerful miracles. Healing the blind. Leppers being healed. It is all because he was empowered. Now, we must remember that he was walking in his sonship glory. Right? And the Bible says that the same spirit that was in Jesus is in us. So, how much we must believe and know that God can do these miracles.  Remember, we were in forget the place. I think it was Rajasthan. I may have shared this with you. In Rajasthan, one thing about Rajasthan is if you have been there, the believers are 10 times much more faith than us. I will tell you, we know so much from the Bible. They hardly know anything. But the faith they have is too much. I went there and we were doing a conference and did I tell you about the car? How the car was locked? Did I give you that example?  So, they closed the door. The key is inside and the car is locked. The baby doesn't know anything. Baby is some 10 month old baby. The car is locked. Glasses are all up. Everyone are panicking. What to do? Let's break the glass around. Suddenly, one man came, the leader, cell group leader. He came, what happened and all that. He said, no, the car is locked. Open the car. No, the key is inside. We will pray. I am watching all this. I said, okay, pray. He opened the door. He opened the door. He just prayed and he opened the door. He said, okay, take the key. Okay, let's go back to the conference. He said to me, what are you doing? So, there are many things that I saw, many, many things that I saw, right? Yeah, they were praying. So, they had the 15 minutes prayer before the service starts. All are screaming, you know, right in North India. Screaming and shouting and praying. Wailing their hearts out. Powerful 15 minutes of prayer. That first 15 minutes, there's no power. It's fully dark in the church. Fully dark, pitch dark. You can't see anything. Everyone are holding the phone down with the torch light which is going up. It's pitch dark. No light, no fan, nothing. Then the worship team, they've come early morning, they practiced. Okay, they are praying, God bless the worship time, bless the preaching time. So, I was looking around, when will this current come? I'm not able to pray because I was worried about the power. What if the power doesn't come? These guys are praying. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. You are blessed the worship time, blessed the sermon time. Let there be no miracles, all that. I'm looking around, nobody's bothered, okay, there's no power. Then I asked one person, is there power backup? What is that he asked? I said, okay, it's fine. Exactly as the worship prayer got over, the power came. They went on stage, the whole service power was there. Then we finished that by afternoon we stayed back. We had lunch. I asked the people how come exactly before the worship time the power comes? Every Sunday it goes at 7 o'clock in the morning. It's like the devil doesn't want us to have service. So, every Sunday we pray every Sunday if the service starts at 8.30, 8.28 the power will come back. Every Sunday. So, we are used to this.  You see the faith they have and it's a natural thing. Don't worry pastor, next Sunday you come same thing will happen. The power will go, we will pray power will come. There were times where there were some testimonies they shared where the light pole itself has fallen down. It's broken. Nobody has power, only church has power. Everyone are looking at the church, how come this place has power? They've all come in and through that some people have become believers who came to church. So, the understanding is very different. But it's the same Holy Spirit. Sometimes we get so sophisticated in our ministry we should know everything from the Bible. All this is important. But what God wants us to do is to apply it to be empowered in it. So, when we look at Jesus, he prayed. But then after praying he went and did it. He used it. He didn't say I'm the son of God and sit in his house. He did something about it. You and I as God's children, we do something about it. Next one, what was his audience? The audience was the poor, the lost sheep of Israel, the sinners. But we also look at he was also ministering to those who were wealthy. Let's look at Luke chapter 4 and 18. Oh, we already looked at that. Matthew 10, 5 and 6. Matthew chapter 10 and verse 5 and 6. Matthew chapter 10 verses 5 and 6. Yes, go ahead. These 12 Jesus sent out and commanded them saying do not go into the way of the Gentiles and do not enter a city of the Samaritans. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Yeah. So he's saying here go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Then look 1910. Luke chapter 19 verse 10 for the son of man came to seek and to save what was lost. Yeah. So the audience we see that Jesus minister to those who are poor, those who are lost, those who are sinners. Now you and I can do this too. We go to the lost those who are sinners. Now the thing is when we look at people who are sinners, this morning I got a message from a friend of mine an old friend of mine we were childhood friends in Sunday school and all of it. A very close friend of mine passed away this morning.  He passed away this morning. I just got the message. But the thing is I'm guessing he died of a drug overdose because he was a drug addict and I was thinking to myself man look at the enemy and look at what he does. 33 years old he's a pastor's son he's a pastor's son. So I just got the message saying the body is in his house pastor's son only son right. He knows everything from the Bible brilliant guy in Sunday school we used to have something called as Bible boy and gospel girl meaning whoever says all the Bible verses correctly and whoever knows the most from the Bible and that'd be like a quiz out of 200, 300 boys you get one Bible boy and about 200 girls so they both are the best they know everything. He was Bible boy for like 2-3 years consecutively right. What is his end? Died of a drug overdose this morning look at how Jesus when you look at Jesus as ministry he reached out it's not like he didn't know my friend he knew everything he knew the verses he knew verses that we don't know but you see how the enemy comes to steal the word of God he can do anything the enemy if we don't guard our heart we don't guard what we learn he'll come to steal it the Lord Jesus when he ministered to the people he ministered in power but there were some people who received some who did not receive there were some people who believed some who did not believe now think about this when the Jews Jesus went and said I am the Messiah how many of them would have criticised him any of them actually if you look at it very few believed he is the Messiah other people believed he is a prophet or a healer but when the Lord Jesus ministered he didn't look at their background he didn't look at do you really believe me do you really think you can you will follow me will you obey me will you love me there were times he healed people and he has not seen them again before remember the leper if you are willing to heal me I know you can Jesus so what does Jesus say I am willing what should I do go to the temple show yourself to the priest offer the sacrifices of Moses be on your way so when we minister to people we minister not waiting for something in return we just minister with all our heart there will be people who receive there will be people who will not receive now that is not our responsibility our responsibility is to minister 3 what was his message the main message was repentance which is to leave the things of the world and turn to Jesus repentance was his main message repent turn away from God turn away from the things of the flesh turn away from the things of this world right then his his message was also forgiveness right where if you look at the old covenant if you look at the old testament we see the offerings right the sin offering now these two the sin and the guilt offering were offerings for forgiveness right the sin the guilt offering were offerings for forgiveness so what would they do every 2 months the Jews would go they would offer the sin offering then they would offer a guilt offering oh God I am guilty I am guilty of sin I am guilty of my words what I have said, what I have thought of what I have spoken I am guilty so the guilt offering is given so and then we got the then he would preach the kingdom of God and we see a lot of parables that the Lord Jesus spoke of about the kingdom of God and he demonstrated faith he walked in faith teaching session we see there all the way from the beginning he goes on to say he talks about who God is what God can do through you and what you can become entire teaching right so his message was plenty repentance forgiveness, he talked about the kingdom of God and he talked about walking in faith next one what were the methods that he used this is very important when we evangelize when we reach out to people there are different methods that we can use what is the method that Jesus used firstly we know that he prayed we know that he spent time in God's presence he received as much as he could and then did ministry and one of the main methods was signs and wonders let's read these two verses Matthew chapter 9 35 and 36 and one of us can read Acts 222 Matthew 9 35 to 36 Jesus went through all the town and villages teaching in the synagogues preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness when he when he saw the crowd he had compassion on them because they were harassed and helpless like a sheep without a shepherd Acts 222 men of Israel hear these words Jesus of Nazareth and man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs which God did through him in your midst as you yourself also know yeah so we see Jesus' method first one he thought he preached and he did signs, wonders and miracles he thought he preached signs, wonders and miracles and then we see that the Lord Jesus that the disciples continued the same thing after the Lord Jesus had gone right, they also thought they preached there were signs, wonders and miracles so for us to minister in such a way we must learn to maintain this balance of teaching, sharing preaching preaching meaning now for example you are sharing the gospel with somebody you don't have to sit and preach the law of Moses said this and then you know the guilt offering was this and they will say ok I don't want right, we should be wise we should know now the setting where Jesus was was because people were following him they had to go back home and cook they were free so Jesus used that but what did Jesus do during the time when he met the Samaritan woman he didn't say come I'll sit down let me explain to you he knew next 5 minutes he's going to go from here so we use wisdom but what did he do he taught he preached and then there were signs, wonders and miracles and we can do that as well we follow his example we will look at the book of Acts the disciples did the same thing the great apostle Paul did the same thing right and then all of us can do the same thing same method, preach teach signs, wonders and miracles now many of them, many people ask why signs, wonders and miracles are not happening in the church recently somebody had sent an email why is it not happening in the church why why people who are deaf cannot hear people who are blind cannot see why is it not happening now that's a it's a good question but we need to understand a few things one is eventually it is not in our hands God is the healer but he is willing two there are things that we must do we must walk in faith also we must believe whenever we go to North India really it's very different because every time we go it's not like we are doing ministry there we come back and we think they are doing so much more than us of course there are different kinds of ministries and God is using different churches different ministries but if you read about the miracles that are happening not only not even here there are miracles there are things that God is doing right he has done wonderful things he is doing wonderful things recently about two months back I am speaking to a friend of mine and he was terminal right he was terminal he had stage 2 cancer but he was about 38-39 years old stage 2 right and so he went to church to another church he was there and he was praying he was asking God you know I have my whole life in front of me I have my like a small child here who look after my wife doesn't work so he has been praying and then recently he went to a prayer meeting within the church itself and he felt that God healed him right so he came back he didn't have any symptoms so after 2-3 days he went to the doctors checked himself the doctor said there is no cancer right so there are things that are happening and this is just maybe one or two God is working but he wants to do more in the church he wants each one of us to step out in faith right he wants us to spend time and then go about doing what he wants us to do so the question is not why God is not doing the question is are we ready for a sacrifice are we ready to walk in this greater measure of faith are we ready to let go of certain things right there were times I prayed over people prayed such a prayer I thought they would be healed immediately so it got worse I was saying no pastor still the same what you know it's very difficult right pray for my back ok praying praying how do you feel now it's paining more pastor because I am standing down ok what will you do sit down it's not easy and see nowadays people don't want to please tell the fact it's paining no doesn't mean that ok because it's still paining maybe I have not done something or maybe he's not done something see we must understand that these things happen have you ever thought about this in the pool of silo Jesus went there so many people were there so many people have you ever thought of it why did he go to this one person he could have gone ok rise up walk ok rise up walk one by one he would have gone everywhere finished off the whole pool of silo will be empty right it makes so much sense then the Pharisees and Sadducees would have said this guy is really something but he healed one fellow and he walked out right so God has his ways of dealing with situations dealing with people we trust his ways but he's willing to bring healing he's willing to bring blessings so as ministers we follow Jesus's example have faith do trust in God preach teach let there be science wonders and miracles if it's not yet started in your ministry in your life pray ask God when I pray for people you touch them you heal them let them experience your healing and you will notice that probably about 22 23 years old all these people would come in they would look at me they would go up a small boy what he'll pray it's ok that was the mindset I was very small and I knew I was very small but over time the anointing will change things people will recognize people will come never think that we are too small or we are insignificant we must know God will bring people you pray you spend time in God's presence you will see the fruit in your ministry and you will see science wonders and miracles let me give you this example I've said this example in Mangalore when we were in Mangalore we were 5 or 6 people 8 people the first Sunday that I was there I said God you have to do something here I've come from Bangalore so many things to do in ministry 8 people they come half the sermon they were sleeping half the sermon they were awake and older people you have to do something here so over time people started catching the vision became 15, 20, 25 so when I came to east east I think we were first Sunday remember first Sunday I think we were 50 50 or 60 first Sunday after the lockdown and all many families went home 60 people I said what is this I said we have to do something about this so we started doing some kind of ministry reaching out to people and I remember saying God you give us a better space than this this space I don't want I really prayed that I'm being honest I said I don't want this place because there was so much of difficulty children's church and something was not right in my spirit whenever I go there it's a very nice place it's a hotel it was a nice very nice place but every time I go I say God I change this place I don't want this place so I prayed I said God I don't want this place change this place suddenly we got to know AC is not working in the hotel so we bought fans so we were using the fans I said no I don't want this place give me a new place then we got a space right now that we are in huge hall it seats about 300 people so that was a temporary move until this AC gets fixed so the point was we are going to go back once the AC is fixed I was praying I don't want that AC even if you are fixed we don't want to go back so much I prayed I said God this hall is the best this is what I envisioned I can picture 300 people sitting in this church I want this place those fellows that the people that keys the hotel hotel people said okay it's ready please you can come back because all the equipment everything was there then I checked with the team and said okay just find out they doubled the rent I said thank you lord so we are going to stay back here sent an email pastor said no going back there you stay here thank you lord so now we have a 300 seater auditorium with a stage everything I am praying God you fill it up he will fill it up I don't know but he will do it what is our responsibility do our programs, do outreaches pray, teach, minister let science wonders and miracles happen will God fill it up he will fill it up whether I am there or no I don't know but he should fill it up right when in Mangalore we were 10 people I would say God I would ask the people how many people in this place can fill they said 80 people squeezed God we have to move out of this place next week they are moving out 100 odd people in the church now so God is able to I am really saying God is able to but it is only how much we put in how much we sow is what we can reap right so the methods were the same then Jesus went about traveling to places he went preaching the gospel motivation to go from place to place cities, towns, villages and he was able to preach the gospel right yes go ahead we are we have to be for example I mean sometimes I have a lot of experiences I really speak about different things but we have a conversation we try talk to them then this is what Jesus can do to our life depending on the situation depending on the situation is there like also always we have to I mean yeah we really go across the situation but only that this traditional way yes that's perfectly fine so Ravali's question was there are times when we can when sharing the gospel we don't we don't go through that traditional okay we were all sinners what we learned in lifestyle evangelism yeah that's fine we don't have to go through it because you're able to speak to them you're able to let them know about what God can do in their life and if you're meeting like if you're doing street evangelism it's not easy that you may meet them again but you can that's where we need to depend on the Holy Spirit God give me a word for him give me a prophetic word even if I say 2-3 sentences let it touch their lives right so God will put the words in your mouth how to speak but there's nothing wrong in talking to them they may talk about work and you're sitting and listening ask God to give you opportunities so that's not wrong see one thing is important we must understand the motivation right why are we doing this if you know your motivation it's okay I want people to know about Jesus whatever you do is fine right however you express it it's fine doesn't matter then when Jesus did his ministry he also saw a lot of challenges just like what you and I see unbelief they were you know people were people didn't believe in him didn't believe his message right so there will be times when we go out if people don't believe our message nothing to cry go to the next person simple right move on there'll be demonic encounters Jesus himself saw demonic encounters there were people who were possessed by demons right who came and Jesus was able to encounter them right and then there was opposition from religious leaders right so here in our society there may not be opposition from religious leaders but there will be opposition from people around us and of course here is where we walk in wisdom so people ask me right so sometimes they say if Jesus could do and Jesus did everything he says go reach out to people what to do in places where there is you know where there is persecution where there is you know people you know that you will get persecuted for sharing the gospel so the answer is this the Lord Jesus when he was in Jerusalem what did they do they wanted to kill him firstly they didn't accept his message then they wanted to get rid of him but he knew his time was not right so what did he do he went to Judea very simple right he says that's why when he is coming back from Judea he looks over the city of Jerusalem and he weeps over it right because why does he weep they were waiting for the Messiah the Messiah is here their eyes are not able to see it right so here there will be opposition there will be we may need to use wisdom we may need to just step out walk away Jesus did that so when we can do it it's not a sign of fear right it's not a sign of fear to say okay this is not like for example we know there are certain areas in Bangalore which is dominated by other faiths it's a strong area right we pray over them but we need to be wise how we do ministry there right we can't say oh God is all powerful we know that the Lord Jesus himself said let me step away he went to Judea when things settled down in Jerusalem he came back wisdom right and finally he had support he sent others to reproduce and people gave into his ministry financially as well how do we know that because we know that Thomas was keeping the accounts sorry Judas was keeping the accounts right so he had support he raised up leaders he said go minister to people so we see that Jesus he fulfilled all the criteria to be an evangelist as well he set the example he set the model for us so that we can also you know go ahead and be these evangelists now if your calling is not an evangelist see one thing I know is my calling may not be evangelist but I love to reach out to people I love to go out you know every now and then I keep going to Whitefield where the church is let's go reach out give tracks try to reach out to people it's okay right we know now but if I have to go to a certain place where we know it's not safe I need to be wise I didn't need to think so we model ourselves we model our ministry our life it's like how Jesus did right right so we finish this chapter we'll meet next class for the next chapter chapter 3 thank you everyone thank you online students God bless you have a good week ahead


We're at South High School's Acuity Field House, where tonight the Red Wings host Green Bay Notre Dame. Hello everybody, alongside the coach Chris Wright, I'm Mike Martin. Chris, a couple, not all I say they're bottom feeders, but they're in the second half of the league this year. We did see Notre Dame earlier this season against North. They got beat pretty bad. South seems to be coming on. Yeah, well, we talked about this earlier in the year about South High School. They're very, very young. As is Notre Dame, they only have three seniors themselves. South only has two. But we knew it was going to be a work in progress for Sheboygan South. And they played some really, really, really tough ball games early in the season against some very highly ranked opponents. And the other day, they went up to Bayport and stunned them close at halftime, but pulled away in the second half for a six point win. So to say you're kind of on a roll to get things going towards the second half of the conference schedule, I would say the Red Wings are one of those clubs. Notre Dame could make the same argument. They had a good win up in Manitowoc. They beat them 60 to 59 in overtime. So both teams coming off a win. It should be an interesting game tonight. One thing I did notice in doing my research today was Max Reitzstein was averaging about 15, almost 16 points a game. He's down to now at 10 points a game. We don't know the reason, but his scoring has gone down, but they still seem to have pretty good balance. Yeah, a lot of balance is right. Marty, they got three guys that are over 10 points a game. So something to look out for. And again, like you mentioned, a nice win in overtime against Manitowoc. Manitowoc's got some of their horses back. They played north to a close game last week. So obviously very impressive win by the Triton as well. But, you know, I'm starting to feel like the athletes for South are kind of getting together and starting to play a little better. And, you know, as the season goes on, you know, this has a chance, you know, at the turning point for South to be four and four in conference at 500, which would not be something that Coach Rank would be disappointed with. South comes in with 66 three-pointers on the year, according to the WIS Sports website. And Notre Dame at 64. So we might see some three-pointers getting launched tonight. Yeah, and we keep mentioning the game that the three-point shot is, you know, such a nice thing to bring you back into games, especially games that are really, really close. Both teams obviously have struggled in shooting this year. So anytime you can put up a three and put it in the hoop, that's definitely a bonus. A week ago when we were here, that was the case with a couple three-pointers by A.J. Guterres. And that first half kind of led to the blowout a week ago. So let's see if South can keep it on a roll here. That Reese Kidd had 18 points the other night. I think it was in the win up at Bayport. He had nine. So Tyson Reese is a kid that they're going to have to watch out for. He's been playing more and playing better. Yeah, if you want to get on the floor, put up 20 points, 18 points in a ball game. And they did that a week ago. And he's, you know, up his average kind of someone who was kind of lost on the end of the bench. But, you know, when you have a little spark plug like that, like Tyson did, you know, showing himself a little, getting a little better, you got to get him on the floor someplace. You know, again, I think South, we mentioned before, has so many, so much talent on their team. They have so many good athletes. You know, it's just a matter of putting the right pieces into the puzzle for Coach Rankin. Well, it's the second half of the conference season goes on. Maybe we'll see more of that. All right. Let's talk about what needs to be done to win tonight's ball game. For South, what do you see as being crucial to getting a win tonight? What do they have to do? Well, I think they got to shoot well. They, you know, what we said before, they haven't shot very well all year. Just continue to shoot better. Keep taking the shots that you had.  You know, you don't just need Logan Hamilton, who's leading their team and scoring or, you know, Tyler Gunther to lead them. They have a lot of guys that can spread it out and score. You know, you mentioned Reese as one of those kids, but maybe it's Gaturas. Maybe it's, you know, who knows, Split Gerber or something like that. Maybe it's Martins or Golvec. I mean, all those guys can contribute. So I think shooting the ball well for them is a key to victory. And what do you see as Notre Dame's path to victory? Well, I think they got to go out in their mojo. You know, they nice win against Notre, against some man to walk the other day. So playing on the road on a cold game, just, you know, go with what you have. You know, I mentioned to Coach Rank, I said, we've been playing a lot of basketball games. There's not a lot of prep time.  Oh, he's like, a lot of preparation.  Well, you're playing Tuesday, Friday, Tuesday, Friday. There's not a lot of off time. So, you know, getting back on the court right away, it's not necessarily, you know, the preparation is just, you know, continuing what you're doing well before. And both these teams coming off victories should have confidence in tonight's game. All right, with that, we're going to step out. And when we come back, we'll have the starting lineups and a tip off for tonight's basketball game. He serves his party best, who serves the country best, rather for it behaves. Patriotism is easy to understand in America. It means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country, Calvin Coolidge. Government is the people's business. And every man, woman and child becomes a shareholder with the first penny of tax pay, Ronald Reagan. There's nothing wrong in America that can't be fixed of what is right in America, William Clinton. Either we, now. I'm a board certified pediatrician. I've practiced pediatrics now for about 14 years. And I always tell my parents, I give the vaccine to both of my daughters. And I really do not want them to come to me 20 years from now and say, Mom, I have cervical cancer, and you did nothing to protect me. This is a vaccine that is safe, is effective, and it can prevent cancer. Cable access channels ensure you the ability to exercise your First Amendment rights through the medium of television.

Remember, Safford and we as teams are cheering on the community for your bold team. You can see bold teams are getting ready to be introduced south, obviously, in the home white. Notre Dame in their visiting blue. Nick Wagner, number 20, making a start for Notre Dame. Number 25 is Max Reitstein. Number 32 is Matthew Rader. We've got a brother, Mike Rader on the team also. Number 42 is Reese Johnson. And rounding out the starting five is Jonathan Santaga. Not very tall, Chris. For the Red Wings, they'll be starting Tyler Ginter. Jared Splitgerber, 5'11 Junior. AJ Gutierrez, number 12 making a start. Jared Govec is a 6'1 Junior. And rounding out the starting five for south is Logan Hamilton, 6'4 Junior. Notre Dame is coached by John Taylor. South by Mike Rank. I think we mentioned Notre Dame comes in overall 6'5, 2'5 in conference. South is 4'7 overall and 3'4 in conference. Both teams coming off a win. Notre Dame winning their last game at Manitowoc in overtime by a point. And South pulling off a huge upset up at Bayport winning by a 6. South on the attack first. Chris and I were talking to some friends out in the comments prior to the game. And Chris, I was surprised at the evaluation of the three-point shot that some of those guys didn't want it in the game. I think it's a great thing actually. Speaking of that, they hit one. Yeah, I like the three-point shot. It makes the game more exciting. Brings the small man into the game. Used to be just a big man's game. And I would love to see him like Pistol Pete Merovic shoot up threes. And Oscar Robinson and some of those guys. Yeah, really. Ball tipped away. Picked up by Govec. Pardon me, Notre Dame is going to get it. Thought he traveled. Yeah, I was going to say either way, Notre Dame was going to get it. And like in the NBA, I don't like the two-on-two isolation. Three guys totally on the other side. I love the way the Golden State Warriors play. Zone to start for South here again. Notre Dame not particularly tall. Not that South is overly big either, but Logan Hamilton is the tallest guy out on the court right now. Right sign is also listed as 6-4. Three ball, no good. And Notre Dame comes away with the rebound. And putting it up and in was Santaga. Logan for three. Rims out. South on top three to two early on. Good hands. Notre Dame able to get it back. Santaga for three. Five to three. Notre Dame on top. And have to find that Santaga guy, Chris. Yep. Kick out to Hamilton. Split Gerbert. Good penetrating pitch, but they can't get the shot to go. And Guterres tipping it out of bounds. AJ is, I know we've mentioned this before, but he's a whale of a good baseball player. Yep.  Oh, yeah. Plays outfield for him. Had a great season two years ago. Offensively. He's one of the best in our league. Wrightstein's shot from close in was short armed. Couldn't get it. Kovac on the drive down the lane. Scores. We're all tied up at five. Three minutes in. Yep. Which means it's 15 minutes left. And Notre Dame chooses not to attack the two-on-one. They seem to want to set things up, Murray. Probably not a bad idea, but then we get a foul on the floor. Another crew here that we're not too used to. I thought you had a good point when we were talking to Chris Hine about the new officials, is they need to get some new blood in there. Yep. Another three by Santaga. Oh, boy. He's got eight points. It's only averaging 11, Marty. I got a feeling he's going to get there this game. Yeah, he had 19-3s coming in. Now he's got 21. Nice drive to the basket and a score by Ginther. Eight to seven. Santaga feeling it. Couldn't get that one in and Gutierrez takes the rebound away from Reitstein. Hamilton open. Again couldn't get it, but Govec with the rebound fakes and then he's fouled. That foul is going to get called on Nick Wagner. Ball on the shot means Jared Govec will get two. Missed the first. That free throw ties up the ball game at eight apiece with 13-57 left. Tyson Reese comes in. We talked about him. He's been hot the last few games. And early off the bench, traditionally we see him much later down the bench. Earning some minutes. Yep. Shot attempt is no good by Wagner and then the ball is tipped out of bounds by O'Connell. Now Tyson plays, he's been scoring a lot of points of his bugaboo to talk about would be turnovers. He's got to take a little bit better of the basketball. At the north game he had trouble with that aspect of the game. Couple times earlier. We know he can score. Cut down on those, turn a little bit there, Tyson. South working the perimeter. Notre Dame doing a pretty good job. Logan Hamilton leans in, got the shot off the glass but couldn't get it to go. And coming away with the rebound was Reese Johnson. South sticking with the zone. Good ball movement. Wide open shot rims out for Matthew Rader. And we have a whistle. Ball's going to go on Notre Dame's Reese Johnson. Mike Rank Jr. in the ball game for South along with Evan Oppenorth. That's pretty close to a carry right there, Chris. Yep, through five blue shirts. Yeah, doesn't know his work so good, does it? Tyson scores and he's fouled. Tyson Reese. Tacked the basket, used the backboard, drew the foul. Gives South the lead. Saltaga picks up the foul. Left a little short. South on top, 10-8. Good pass in the middle. Saltaga with a 10-footer, couldn't get it to go. Oppenorth looking to go baseline but then brought it back out. Could close out deep by Notre Dame. Yeah. Tell you what, when they drive to the basket all the blue shirts fill up the paint. Saltaga, no basket, foul on the floor. I think they're going to call that on Matthew Rader. This is a blocking foul. Yeah, setting a screen, Marty, to free. Here's one of my favorite players to watch, Dylan Martins. Mine too. The old bull in the China shop. I like Dylan. I like Govec and his hustle. Hey, just to keep ourselves out of trouble, I like all the players. They're all really sweet. Wait, how can he come out? What's going on? But I'm disappointed. That was strange. Yeah, really. Gutierrez couldn't quite catch it and then was covered up for the shot attempt. Hopkin-Orth with a rainbow, no good. Rolling down to the 11-minute mark. Salt still on top, 10-8. Hopkin-Orth, that was silly. What are you doing? We're at the 11-minute mark. Oh, James, pretty much trading baskets, huh, Marty? Presently, Salt is on a 5-point run. They were down 8-5. Now they're up 10-8. But a lot of trips, a lot of empty trips.  That young man got away with a push. That was Avery Lyons. And Salt picks up a foul. It'll be Jared Govec, Wagner on the line. Free throw shooting hasn't been very good so far. South is 1-3. Notre Dame now 0-1. Roller, split Gerber has it, brings it up into the attack zone. Notre Dame continues in there, man-to-man defense. Rees backs it out, resets the offense. Little scoop shot, got it. Nice and Rees, he was just trying to probe in there and he got in there and tell you what, when you're on a roll, literally. Keep shooting. Yeah. A lot of days those shots aren't going to go in. That's double dribble. Yeah, what in the world is that? Opka North playing the good post defense. Lyons had it tipped away. Had a 2-on-1 and split Gerber pulls it back out. Govec looking to go, had to pull it back out. Rees is going to get fouled. He'll be at the line shooting a pair. Tell you, keeps finding a way through a hole there and the defense closes, but without not making some contact, I guess is the best way to put it. Yeah, we get a timeout by Notre Dame. It's a full timeout, Kerry, with 9-38 left in first half, south on top. Beckett, South High School's a cutie fieldhouse and there you see Mike Rank talking to the troops. Defense has been pretty good tonight. Yeah, they both hustling and helping on defense. But as I was mentioning before the break, I was kind of laughing, Marty, because all the Notre Dame guys are setting up for a timeout and South was all setting up for a free throw. But anyway, it's going to mention Tyson just seems to get into the little gaps and he's being rewarded with a little contact while he's driving to the basket. He's pretty slick with the basketball. I got him at 75% from the free throw line, Marty. 50% in the game. Boy, those you got to make, those are free throws. Not being guarded. South and a man-to-man now, Chris. Yep. Ball is tipped away and scrum. Martin's on the floor now. Number 42, he checked in during that timeout. Ontavo in two first action. Jesse goes 6-1. He's a senior. Rob inside to Martin's. He's tipped away by Notre Dame's Max Reitzstein. Martin's 6-6. Get it inside, that's right.  Team foul is piling up on Notre Dame. They have six now. The second under halfway. Martin's makes his first free throw. Short arm, that one. South leaving a lot of free throws. Leaving a lot of points at the line. Yeah, at the line. Easy chances for points. Sontaga. Good pressure, good recovery that time by Tyler Ginther. Put a little pressure on Sontaga's shot. But then he commits a foul. Fourth team foul on South. Good ball movement. O'Connell. A lot of contact. Yeah. I thought they did a good job of collapsing on the ball, but then Guterres really scraped him pretty good. O'Connell at the line. He's 87% and he misses. He didn't even look good on that one. It's cold outside and it's colder in here at the basket. Free throws, nothing's going in. There you get a good shot of Ryan. He looked like an 80% free throw shooter there. Ginther, a little too hard off the board. Kick out pass wide. Open three is nailed by Max Ligel. They're saying it legal, so we'll call them legal too. Just his third three pointer of the season. Pulse Notre Dame within one. Eight minutes left. Guterres got it. That breaks a run for Notre Dame. Got a couple of threes just like a week ago. We're here. A lot of active hands by the Red Wings. Legal down the baseline scores. Another basket for him. Shot is blocked. A kick out pass. O'Connell would have behind the back dribble. He gets fouled. That one, that'll be his second. Second, but no bonus. Both teams now tied. Here comes Logan Hamilton. We haven't seen much of him. Logan's just got to let the game come to him. He seems like he always just presses so hard. Get those first couple baskets. Once he gets it going, like we saw a week ago, late, things are all better. Same in the North-South game. It came alive in the second half. Yeah, he got those two fouls early and then had to sit out for an extended period of time. Whitestein with a three. That's four threes for Notre Dame. And now they have the lead, two, 18 to 17. Oh, boy. It seemed like the Red Wings had a little more success when they were sitting in the zone. They've gone to the man-to-man. They haven't been quite as effective. Oh, Reese got back-screened. Yeah, he got picked off pretty good. Wide open three is no good. That shot was missed by a legal. And that's just a foolish, foolish foul. Now they need to really start making them, Chris. Bonus time. We said Tyson came in at 75% there. So missed a couple, so he's due to make a couple in a row. Let's get it up to 60%, three for five. He bangs this one home. All tied up at 18. Under six and a half minutes left in the first half. Hamilton goes for the steal, couldn't quite get it. Double dribble. Let's see if they caught that one. Yeah, really. Four turnover on the Tritons. South has got some good ball handlers in there now with Split Gerber and Reese. Hamilton posting up low. Get them the ball. Turnovers now on South. It's not too bad, actually. They only have six baskets on Marty. Sontaga missed the shot, but then Mike Rank Jr. couldn't control the rebound. Five-fifty left in the first half. Tyson Reese with a good steal. Kick it over to Guterres. Good decision by E.A.J. Not the force at South setting it up. Get it inside to Logan. Guterres puts it up and in. He's three for three from the floor. Gives South the lead with the five minutes left in the half. Looks like they're back in a zone, Chris. Keep an eye on Sontaga, number 50. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. The jump shot in the lane is good by Max Reitstein. That's the shot we wanted, but I didn't expect it to go in. Yeah, that was an easy call. 42 or 25? 25. His first foul. Hamilton making his first trip to the line. Got him at 69%. 13.8 points per game. 5.7 rebounds. Leads South in points and rebounds. The peer lead. Only a junior. Go ahead. Only a junior, I was going to say. North. North trails to peer. To peer and Bayport tomorrow play. By a half a game North. And North plays to peer. Up there on Friday night. South plays Southwest, I think. Good kick out past a Wagner. He scores a two. Nice pass from Sontaga. Notre Dame on top. 22 to 21. Hamilton trying to drive through.   Shouldn't the arrow point? South sway? Yep. He gave it to Notre Dame. South control the trap. Tapping. And there was a tie up down at the other end. They gave it to Notre Dame. And now they gave it to them again. Well, there was one underneath here, Marty. I didn't remember that one either. You mean they were right and we were wrong? Come on. Wrightstein makes that one. This is going to be the sixth free throw by Notre Dame in the half. South is shot three, five, seven, nine, 11. South shooting 46% in the game. Their problem has been missed free throws. One, two, three, four, five out of 11. Not good enough. Tyson Reese down Main Street. Couldn't get it in. Good no call too, by the way. Yep. Good positioning by the Triton defenders. Wrightstein. Bangle. That hurts. Five threes in the half. That's a lot. Hamilton. Got it. It's going to say kind of force that one again, Marty. He got the roll. Rather see him a little bit more squared to the basket. Learn to use that left hand. Under three minutes. Another force. Right in the middle of the lane to put it up and in was legal. Do a better job of blocking out. Couple late offensive rebounds by Notre Dame here. Almost lost by South, but they keep it rolling down to two minutes left. Good ball movement. Tyson Reese around and out. Opkinorth no good. And then off of the hands of Jonathan Sontaga. South will keep it. 218 left in the first half. 29-23. Notre Dame on top. I thought South was going to get a tip back just like Notre Dame had. Split Gerber. Couldn't save it. Sontaga with a layup. Not a good finish to this first half, Chris. Split Gerber driving down into the land of giants and couldn't get the pass off, but he was fouled. It's one thing that's kind of worked for South. Seen Reese do it. Now Splitty do it. Splittin' that Notre Dame defense and then it seems like they get called for fouls. So the officials are calling a lot of those. Something to think about at halftime when you're sitting there. Hopefully the South coaching staff sees that as well. But you've got to make the free throws, Marty. Yeah. Hey! Two in a roll. South down six. Notre Dame with it. South back into a man-to-man defense. Sontaga goes right around Split Gerber, but left the shot short and then commits the foul. His third. Right. And that was just being frustrated because you missed your shot. And that's going to hurt them. He's been their best player here in the first half. More free throws. We need them. I was just thinking, Notre Dame's up by about six points under two minutes. You got the basketball. Be a little bit smarter. They actually got up eight. It was 31-23. Now you're down to a four-point lead. And your best player in the first half is sitting on the bench with three fouls. Too much spaghetti for supper. Did you have sauce on that spaghetti? Now watch it miss. They get the rebound. No good, not a good choice there. But they come away with it. And out of bounds, Tyson Reese must have tipped it away. It's just going to say, get the rebound there, come down and score. Yeah, jeez. That's kind of how I'd do it, Chris. There ain't no way I'm throwing it in. Lyons in the ballgame. Minute 0-8. Lyons, the shot is no good. But Notre Dame comes away with it till Logan Hamilton steals it away. Good hustle by the boys that time. Not a smart shot by Lyons, a sophomore. Under a minute, 45 seconds left. Notre Dame up four. Oh, four set time. Almost set a turnover. I called that a shot, Marty. Okay. Even though it went over the basket. Looks like Notre Dame will play for one. Tyson Reese with the foul early. Probably better not to give him the easy basket. But that is his second. 15.4 seconds left. Have Reese Johnson at 46% from the free throw line. Oh, yeah. Good rebound by Hamilton. He's got three. We're under 10, Marty. Yep. Step back jumper is no good by Tyson Reese. Long bat at the buzzer is off the rim. No good and we're at halftime here at South High School's Acuity Fieldhouse with Notre Dame on top. 32 to 27. Actually quite recently, just a year ago when I met Donna, because she was so motivated and ready to lose weight and to get healthier. Well, since I've met Sue and listened to her guidance, I've lost about 80 pounds and I have been taking off almost all my medications. I mean, that's something to shout about. I just see the future getting better and better and better because I'm getting healthier and healthier and healthier. Ian Ralston was a combat medic who was injured in Iraq.

Notre Dame was led by Max Reitzstein and Jonathan Santaga. They each had 10. Max Ligeloff the bench had 7. For us south, A.J. Guterres had 8. Tyson Ries off the bench had 6. Logan Hamilton 5. Those were the main scores for the Red Wings. What do you got, Chris? 38% shooting for both teams, Marty. Notre Dame did hit three more threes. But I think the three fouls on Santaga might come into play. See what happens here with number 50 in blue. Kick out to Guterres. Couldn't get it to go. And then we're going to get a jump ball. Govac was tied up. Probably should have passed it out. Reitzstein on the tie up and Notre Dame will get it. Well, they got A.J. on a wide open three coming out of the half time off the set. Just couldn't get it to go. Yeah, just couldn't get over the rim. Santaga rims off Hamilton with a good rebound and Splitgerber on the push. Govac trying to go down the lane and scores. I'd be very surprised to see Notre Dame pull away from south. I think south will make a run. Catch up. Get him here in the second half. Drive down the lane and the basket is good by Matthew Rader showing good strength that time. Notre Dame has put together a little bit. They did win the state championship in football this year, Marty. Oh, boy. Logan Hamilton had a good look. Govac with the rebound off the glass and in. Govac with a couple of quick baskets to start the second half. Yeah, he's got two offensive rebounds in the first minute and a half for south. Notre Dame on top 34 to 31. Second time they've been called for an illegal screen, Marty. Wagner, I think, picked up that foul. The score is 34 to 31. Notre Dame. Notre Dame continuing to play a man-to-man defense. Guterres stopped from driving to the hoop and now south pulls it back out. Ginther, quick release on the three, no good. And soon as the Notre Dame player lost possession they had to call a foul on Guterres. Two minutes in. Notre Dame by three. South starting the second half in a man-to-man defense. They started the game with a 2-3 zone. Boy, Santago looked like he got open there. Chris didn't take the shot. Posting up inside is Rader. He kicks it back out to Santago whose shot is no good. And Wagner with a strong rebound taking it right away from the south defender. But saving it is Tyler Ginther down three. Guterres, banked goal. He's got all three threes for south to tie up the score. Legal threw it away. Pardon me, that was Reitstein. Guterres feeling it. Two in a row. Notre Dame just won a four to start the second half with two turnovers. Santago, good pass to Johnson, no good. And Govac with a good tip to himself grabbed that rebound and he's taking it right to the house. But gets followed on the way in. Govac with six rebounds now in the basketball game. Very active on the offensive boards. Why would you want to take the three ball out of the game? With those two threes, AJ now has 14 points. Ginther good ball movement. Logan Hamilton wide open, couldn't get it to go. And Guterres couldn't control it and south loses it out of bounds. Logan now one of six all four from there. Just as soon see Logan around the basket. Lauren Fergens and Justice Rees were two of the dancers out there and Chris and they were student helpers for at least two games so far this year. Nice to see those girls out there involved. Rader for an easy two. He's their leading score but tonight he's just got two baskets here. Turnover? South still on top, 37-36. There's 13-45 left in the ball game. Very entertaining. Well Notre Dame had to have season high for points and a half. That was a good match up underneath. Two Hamilton and Rader number 32 and they're going to get Splitkerber for a hold underneath. That's a tough match up for Jared because Wagner is about three inches taller than him. Both guys kind of jostling. I didn't think Jared did anything exceptionally long there. What's a little hold among friends? I didn't think there was that much of an impact. Splitkerber on the program is 5-11. Wagner on the program is 6-3 so that's a four inch difference. Wagner picks up his third recent the ball game. See if we can get some dry penetration by number three. Or number five? Instead Logan to the rack. Kisses it off the glass. No good. Opkinorth with a strong rebound. Keeps it alive for South. Good effort. Skip pass. That's well, Ginther's going to get a look at a three and nails it but it wasn't a good post feed. Three threes and a half for South in the first five and a half minutes and good hustle by Opkinorth. Opkinorth was tripped up. No foul call there saying the ball went out of bounds off of Notre Dame's Max Legal. Third turn over and a half for Notre Dame. What did South finish up with in terms of turnovers in the first half Chris? They have five in the first half. Seven in the game. That's quite good. Back out to Opkinorth. The rainbow of three. Misses everything. Oh boy. On a late call. Probably the correct call but it was late. Picks up his third. Golvec and Montalvo. Checking in. And Jesse Edwards checking in. Jesse's got the do work in the night. I bet he had it working during the day too. Yep. Day off today for the boys. Yeah. And girls. Maybe that's why the crowd is not very good tonight, Chris. They're all home studying for exams tomorrow. Oh. That's got to be a travel call. I think it's a combination of the cold weather. Different night for a game Monday night. Yeah. Not a typical night for a nice cold basketball. Matthew Radar now with five points. Chris had mentioned he's their leading scorer averaging 11.4. There's three seniors on Notre Dame so a lot of these guys will be back. Montalvo. Going hard to the hoop. And again as we mentioned in the first half if you drive to the basket there seems a tendency to be a lot of calls. You know, if you draw some contact. Well they're not giving them a shot on that, Chris. Chris mentioned it before. They do a good job of help side defense.  Well, Connell good defense by Ginter. Edwards playing the ball there. Radar short jumper is good. We mentioned it's their leading scorer didn't have a basket in the first half. Now they're going to call travel on Logan. He's got eight points. He's got all her points here in the second half, Chris. Their only seniors are Wagner number 20 at play on Rollstein at number 25 but the rest of the guys are all in their classmen very much like south. Oh boy. Ran away from the ball and he still missed the shot. I think they're going to get Guterres on this fall, Chris. Nope. Montalvo is going to pick up that foul. 11 minutes left. Yeah, legal has it. We're all tied at 40. Oh boy. Flat footed jump shot. I shouldn't say jump shot. Set shot by Quinn Snyder. Edwards couldn't get it. Martin with the rebound couldn't get it and Raider comes away with the rebound. Snyder bumped by Edwards stops action for Jesse that's his first. Lions is going to come in and Snyder is going to come out. I don't think coach really appreciated that flat footed jump shot or set shot. Hey, you got it up there though. I didn't think it was going to get up there. Neither did his mother. Oh boy. Martin's hustling down. Whoa. Get it inside to Dillon. Not good post moves by him, Chris. He's not going to have a hard time getting it in. Montalvo looking no good. I'll tell you the last couple trips down they looked pretty disjointed on offense. Raider being guarded by Martin's that's a great match up down deep. Oh, Martin gets away with a foul. We'll give him a block. But he fell asleep a little bit on the defense that allowed him to get the ball to Raider. Who are your scores out there, Chris? Well, you got A.J. and Golvec, the only two starters on the floor. They're setting up the offense. See if Golvec can drive or A.J. can get open for a three. Edwards looking. Couldn't find anybody. Just under nine minutes left in the ball game. Tried to slip it inside but Lyons was on to him and made the interception. Got the guards, started guards back in the game for South. Edwards trying to slice through and steal it. Raider had it tipped away and going inside and not making it because Lachlan Larson Johnson but putting it up and in was Matthew Raider and South calls a time out. Now the military, I was missing this camaraderie. It's frustrating when you try and talk to people that you don't understand. I still had the anger, I still had the addictions, but we didn't talk about that. Came to a point where it's like, okay, I really need to talk to somebody about this. Family more or less encouraged me, it's okay to talk to people because it takes true strength to ask for hope. Here veterans real stories of strength and recovery at MakeTheConnection.net Back at South High School's at Cutie Fieldhouse Mike Rank trying to fire up the troops. Matthew Raider had no points at halftime. He was the leading scorer for Notre Dame. He has 10 points here in the second half all of the Notre Dame points. Yeah, he's 4-5 from the floor. He's got an offensive rebound. Four rebounds in the game. Somebody's got to get a body on him, Marty. That's the key. Keep him out of the paint off the glass. He got him listed as 6-6 and pretty good match up with him and Martins. Logan Hamilton had his hands full trying to guard him a little earlier in the half. Self struggling now. They got to get somebody to drive to the basket. Then you can maybe kick it out like this. Ginter had a look. Couldn't get it. I thought it hit the bracket up there. No call. Good try by A.J. again on the offensive glass. Inside. Nice feed to Lachlan Johnson who scores. Not-named Raider finally scored for Notre Dame. I like the drive penetration and the kick out because either you can draw a foul or you can bang down that 3. South can do that again. Starting 5 on the floor for South. Logan Hamilton goes to the basket and scores. There's that drive penetration. Logan 2 of 8 from the floor tonight. 4-42. Notre Dame on top. Good feed inside to O'Connell. He shoots and is fouled by Tyler Ginter. Tyler picks up his third foul. Well coming in I had him at 87% O'Connell that is. I know he's missed at least two. He was 1 for 2 with that trip and 0 for 1 now so he's 1 for 3. Doesn't look good from the free-to line. Ball goes off of Lachlan Johnson. South's ball. Raider coming out of the game. It's kind of strange they just had a time out. What's that mathematical term when you go back to the average? You know you're way up there and then you move back to the average? Slump. You're talking baseball terms now. It's a little surprise that they took Raider out of the game. South just had a time out so he had a quick blow. I wouldn't keep Batman on the bench for long. Three seconds in the lane. Turnover on Notre Dame. 6-20 left in the ballgame. South needs to put some offense together. They've struggled the second half. Well they hit those 3s Marty but they only have two baskets that are two pointers. What I'm thinking is they just don't look like they're moving well. With a purpose it's get their wild shot. Not a good play there. Or they force it. Try to get that dry penetration which they kind of like. Connell had it tipped away by Gutierrez. Gets it over to Rhys Johnson over to Hamilton. Got it. All tied up at 4. Good teamwork by the boys. Time out in Notre Dame. Full time out. 5-33 left. We're all tied up. Healthy diet and plenty of exercise are keys to success. Both on and off the ice.

And Matthew Rader continues to sit on the bench. Hey, give him a rest. Cary Coutts are our director tonight. Richard Bartson giving you that shot. And we have the invisible man running the floor camera. Accept that half-time. That was me zooming in and out. Goofing up all the settings. But Richard fixed it. Sontaga kicks it out. Lachlan Johnson, no good. Sontaga with the rebound. Kicks it out. Another shot, no good. Sontaga with a hard rebound.  Logan Hamilton with the fall. Sontaga has been quiet since early in the game, Chris. Yep. He's 0 for 3 from the floor here in the second half. So he's 4 of 12 in the game 2 or 6 from 3 points. Finished with 10 points in the first half. Now has 11. And the ball was tipped out apparently by Logan Hamilton. And Notre Dame is going to keep it. I'll tell you what Notre Dame has done really well here in the second half is rebound. Especially on the offensive end. No offense of rebounds Marty. Good point. Raider stays on the bench. No wonder his averages don't tipped away. Almost. Wagner playing strong inside. Hamilton trying to match with him. It was tipped away but it came back to Notre Dame and they get another offense of rebound. Hamilton finally grabs the board for South. He's left in the ballgame. Red Wings down by a point and Mike calls the time out. That was a long trip down Chris. What do you think the Red Wings ought to do? Well they just try to... I still like the penetration idea Marty. I mean their best shooter tonight has been AJ Gutierrez. So if you can get him open somewhere but keep drive penetrating. Hopefully you can get a kick out. Mike's got the whiteboard out. I think he's drawing up the play that you suggested. Our next game is going to be Friday, January 22nd when Christian travels over to Lutheran for their first and only game of the season. They only play once this year and we're a little disappointed. We always like covering those squads. We'll only catch them once this time around. Yeah, the big east. They should make a non-conference game their opposite one. Remember that first couple of times when they designed this conference and in football, Norse salt football was a non-conference game? If I remember, it was at the beginning of the year too. I don't remember. It doesn't matter why aren't they playing a conference game. Four minutes and twenty seconds. I think it's going to come down the last two minutes.  He was doubled up by Wagner. I don't know what the call is going to be but they're going to call it on Johnson. Pardon me, Matthew Raider and they got him for three falls. I look up on the board and three salt players and three Notre Dame players with that situation. Three fouls. Hamilton rattles that one in. Logan with ten points. Guterres is stuck on 14. Sontag almost traveled. Yep. I like Raider out there. Wagner doing a great job of posting up but they don't get him the ball. Reese Johnson's drives and scores at Sontag and Logan scored. Yep. I didn't think he could put the ball in a room for him to put it off the backboard there but he found some daylight. Pretty good South D. Notre Dame up two. How about one? Oh, he got the bounce. Ginther with a three. Oh, baby. Steele. AJ Hamilton was on the line. They're going to give it to Notre Dame. The important point the important point right now is South does have the lead 48 to 47. Matthew Raider out on top you'd like to keep him out there. Get him away from the basket.  The ball is tipped out of bounds by Jared Govec. Wagner goes six three. He's got pretty good size. A little bit of meat on the bone. He actually plays very tough. Got some guys that obviously played football on this team. Yeah, you'd think so. 246 left. Reese Johnson has it out on top. Kick out to Sontag. Bangal. And AJ Guterres was right in his grill. Oh AJ went up didn't get the call. They've been calling that all night. That's not a bad idea to keep doing that AJ. Still plenty of time. Uh-oh. Raider goes. They're not going to give the basket. They're going to say the foul happened prior to the shot attempt. No basket. I said oh no because I saw the lane was open. Took it right down the left side. No help defense. Raider on the line to shoot a pair. 51% free throw. Well it can't be a pair Marty. They didn't count the basket. Should be a one on one. And it is. He misses that one. Yeah he's 51% from the free throw. Rees looking for an opening. Good defense that time by Rees Johnson number 42. Go back trying to muscle his way in. Just got around Lachlan Johnson but Johnson got called for the foul. Only this, well the sixth foul 155 left. Hopefully South will get in the bonus. Inside feed to Ginther who forces it. Logan Hamilton forced it up, got the rebound, put the shot up but couldn't get it to go. You'll have a chance at the line to tie up the ball game. They have six rebounds for Logan now over his average. 5.7. Logan is now 5 for 7 from the line. Nick Wagner out of the game. Wrightstein in. He's sat on the bench for quite a while. Out of the game. 145. Every possession now. Magnified Marty. Exactly. Also the next foul on South will make it the super bonus. Yep. Hamilton working real hard on the inside defense when Raider is down there. I like Raider out there. Backdoor. Basket is up and good by Lachlan Johnson. This ran a flex cut backdoor. AJ had an opening. Didn't take it. Hamilton slides inside and scores. Quit it, go Logan. Yeah, that was a sweet move. Under a minute Marty. All tied up. Exactly one minute left. The clock almost stopped for a second. Interesting. South is in a zone. Hard to hold the ball for a minute. He doesn't want it. There. No. Rolling down to 30 seconds left in the ball game. Hard to hold the ball for a minute Marty. See. Oh, no. Goal back had all ball. You can't call that. It's Dean will be on the line shooting a pair. 73%. Marty. Boy, I thought that was good D. Really good D. Dylan Martin's in the game. Huh. Okay. Dylan says go back.  Go back says Dylan forget it. I think he's doing that to get the rebound Marty. Then they're going to call time out. 10 15 seconds left. Ginther has it on top. Dylan Martin's looking to set a screen. They clear out a side. Ginther off. One goal. And you're going to give it to South. It looked like it was off of A.J. Gutierrez. And South calls a time out with 3.6 seconds left. And they'll have the ball under the basket. What do you do Chris? Well it seems like Notre Dame really packs in the lane Marty. So you're going to have to get something on the wings. I think that's going to be your best opportunity. They just seem like they don't allow once the guys try to drive it is or you catch it and go right to the basket. You only have 3.4 seconds left so you got to make a quick decision. Looks like you're only going to get one shot too.  It doesn't look like Tyson Reese is in the ballgame. I think they have Ginther. I think Dylan Martins Gutierrez and Hamilton in the game. They've got pretty good height. I would think it's Ginther on a drive or Gutierrez or Logan on a jump shot. Colvec could drive it too. I would be surprised to see Martins be the main focus on this just because he's not one of their leading scorers. Big body inside. If a shot comes off the rim and he can tip it. Colvec will throw it in. We've got Ginther out in the corner and Notre Dame now calls a full time out. Kerry let's take a short break with 3.6 seconds left. South down one.

Notre Dame has Santaga Reese Johnson Matthew Rader Max Legal and let's see who's that last guy is that Wrightstein Nick Wagner back in the ball game pretty good game pretty tall kid they're packing it in 3-4 guys in the lane Chris that's what I expected he's got him Guterres can't catch the ball what's the call we got a foul timeout white with 0.4 seconds left we got a tip you can get a tip well I think it's 0.3 when it has to be a tip
