Well, thank you for inviting me here. It's a great honor and pleasure. I met Marcel in 1981 in fall when I came to Paris as an exchange student, being completely naive and ignorant, I have to say. But due to not only Marcel, but the atmosphere that he created around him and his young people. So when I came, I had some vague idea that maybe geometry was something that I could like. And after one year, it was kind of clear that I would never escape geometry again. I was completely captured and fascinated by the subject, and in particular also by Marcel's way to discuss mathematics and introduce concrete problems that had difficult, but perhaps concrete, answers. So I hope I can give you today a little bit of lecture in the spirit of this philosophy that you might be interested in concrete questions. There's been a lot of progress ever since. But somehow, maybe the progress leads now to us being able in the hopefully near future to solve problems that were not reachable back then. But maybe there isn't reach right now. Let me start with something so very simple related to Bruce's talk. So Bruce said, now that we understood geometrization, we can ask sort of more advanced questions that follow up. And let me just go back to something that is familiar to all of you. Name, let's look at a closed surface where somehow you could think of everything as understood. And for me, everything is oriented. I don't write this down. All my manifolds will be oriented. And let's take a closed surface of genus G bigger equal than 2. And we all know that this surface has a hyperbolic structure. That means a constant curvature, a metric, a constant curvature of minus 1. And furthermore, there exists a 6G minus 6 dimensional parameter space of such metrics of curvature minus 1. And we, in addition, have Gauss-Bonnet theorem, which says that for each such metric, the integral or the volume of the surface is equal to 2 pi times the Euler characteristic, the absolute value of the Euler characteristic. So it's a fixed number. And this has a kind of very easy consequence that for all x and s. So now I think of it as equipped with such a metric, the injectivity radius at x is less or equal to some constant times logarithm of G. Where does this come from? It comes from the fact that if you have a disk in the hyperbolic plane of a radius r, then the volume is roughly e to the power r. It's not quite correct, but up to some constant. And so if we had a large injectivity radius around a point, the volume would be very large. But the volume is not very large because the volume is uniformly bounded. Of course, we can have points where the injectivity radius is arbitrarily small. We can produce hyperbolic metrics on any of the surfaces such that the system, that means the length of the shortest closed geodesic is arbitrarily small. That's not a problem at all. So now, all these sort of things related, we can look at the rank of the fundamental group of s. What is this? This is a minimal number of generators of pi 1 s. That's a number. And this is actually the number that we can easily compute. It's 2G. So what we can say is that injectivity radius here point-wise is bounded from above by a function which only depends on the rank. That's a kind of very satisfactory result if you look at understanding the geometry of the surfaces. And you immediately observe that there's nothing much to do with having a hyperbolic metric here. We could have a negatively curved, pinched metric. And we would get not the same constant, but we would get very similar statements here. So there's no problem with that. Let me give you just to make an advertisement for my student, Bram Petri, give you a kind of, I think, nice result that he proved last year. So we can have, actually, this is sort of sharp in a way, a strong sense. There exists a sequence of surfaces, hyperbolic surfaces, GI of genus GI going to infinity, such that S, say Si, GI, GI going to infinity, such that Si, GI has a systolic pens decomposition. So what is a systolic pens decomposition? A pens decomposition is something that I might wish to draw on the right-hand side here. So you decompose your surface into pairs of pens. A pair of pens is just, for example, like this. A pair of pens is just a three-fold sphere. And now you can decompose your surface into such three-fold spheres. I forgot one corner here. And now what he proved is that there is a pencil composition of this particular surface, which is systolic. That means each of these pens curves from the decomposition has the length is equal to the smallest length of any closed geodesic on the surface. So the metric is hyperbolic. And the length of each of these curved systols is bigger equal 4 over 3 times the logarithm of GI minus some constant.  I showed you here the point-wise injectivity radius is less or equal than c times log g. And now he produced something where you actually have a pencil composition. And all these pens, these curves here are systolic. So that means injectivity radius on each of these curves is what you get from the number. And you have plenty of them. So no, no. It came out of the proof. Yeah, it's just a number. I mean, here. So it has to do with the construction. But I mean, you may or may not be able to improve this. I don't know. So now the question that arises is, what about three manifolds? Now, we know that due to the work of Perlman, there is geometrization. So what we know in particular is that if m is closed, again, my manifolds will be oriented for simplicity. So I don't write this down as closed three manifold, but a spherical, meaning that the second fundamental group of m is trivial. And a to order, meaning that their pi 1m, so I'm slightly informal here, does not contain z cross z. Then Perlman showed, so this is one of his consequences of his work. So this statement is weaker than geometrization. But it comes out of Perlman's work on geometrization that m admits a hyperbolic metric with curvature minus 1. So now, most of the rigidity, as Bruce explained to you in the last talk, most of the rigidity implies that this metric is unique up to isometry. We are now in 3D. So we're not in the two-dimensional case anymore. But of course, the diffeomorphism group acts on this metric. And so it looks, if you try to describe this metric, it's maybe slightly complicated due to the fact that the diffeomorphism group acts. But up to isometry, this metric is unique. Now, once we have understood this, we somehow can ask now refined questions as you see here that are known for surfaces. So one of the refined questions would be that was a question that was raised by McMullen, actually in the early 90s. So the conjecture by McMullen says, let's m be closed hyperbolic, that means. And again, I mean, this has a friend. This conjecture has a friend. So this conjecture was stated before geometrization. So now, in the view of geometrization, this conjecture should have a friend for variable negative curvature. And it says, if for all k bigger than 2, there exists a constant u of k bigger than 0, such that if the rank of pi of pi 1 of m is less than equal than k, rank in this sense. So you look at the minimal number of generators of the fundamental group, then the injectivity radius of x is less than equal than c of k for all x. So meaning that although there are definitely examples with arbitrarily small injectivity radius at some point, we require that at every point, the injectivity radius is bounded from above. So and again, if this were true due to geometrization, we assume that the same thing is true also for variable negative curvature provided that you have some pinching assumption. Now, this would shed a light on the geometry of those three manifolds, which would lead to a better understanding. Let me now give you some overview of what's known towards this conjecture. So first of all, there's a CO by white. Unfortunately, there are lots of people whose name is white. So and I forgot this first thing. I never met this person. He's a student of McCullough. So he did in the early 2000s. He proved that for all such m, x and m such that the injectivity radius at x is less or equal to, I'm saying, c prime of k. So the global injectivity radius for any such manifold whose rank of the fundamental group is less or equal than k is can be bounded from above by a uniform number. But of course, this is very far away from saying that the point was injectivity radius is bounded. That's much, much stronger. So there is a serum which somehow solves the conjecture, which is due to a Birner and Zutow. And they show that they prove the conjecture. So this is 2017. This is maybe 2005. This is 2017. That proves the conjecture for a manifold with injectivity radius at x, bigger or equal, some constant, a nu, bigger than 0, nu is universal, plus some small additional assumptions. I confess that I did not read this paper. This paper is available on the archive. And it's 170 pages long. So it's a very difficult technical work. But I mean, that proves this conjecture under these assumptions. So now let me give you a sort of weaker form of this conjecture of McMullen that is maybe geometrically more accessible than which I will discuss for the remainder of my talk. So the rank is controlled by something out which is called the Higa genus. And let me explain what that is. There is a fact. Any clues? And this is easy to prove. This has various ways to do it. I mean, if you believe that manifolds can be triangulated, just take a triangulation and you take tubular neighborhoods of the one skeleton you get going. That's an easy result. Any closed three manifold can be glued from two handlebodies with a different morphism of the boundary. So what does that mean? So I, in some sense, draw already here a picture of a handle body. So handle body is a neighborhood of a bouquet of G circles in R3. So you think of it as this thing here bringing this surface here built in the interior. Now you can take a point here and you draw a bouquet of, in this case, three circles. And you flatten this up and you get this handle body as we draw here. And now what's assumed this is, if you take a closed three manifold, then you can find some G. So the genus of the handle body is a genus of the boundary surface such that you obtain this three manifold by taking the boundary surface here, taking another copy and gluing it with a different morphism. So now the smallest G, smallest genus, genus G such that this is possible. That means such that we can glue our manifold from these two handlebodies of genus G. It's called the Hagar genus. Now as a Hagar genus, understanding the Hagar genus is a bit more friendly if it comes to understanding, trying to understand the topology of such a manifold. So what we know is that if the Hagar genus is of M, is less or equal than G, then the rank of pi 1 of M is less or equal than G. And this comes from the fact that the fundamental group of such a handle body is a free group into NG generators. So that's an easy statement. But now if you replace in McMullan's conjecture the rank by the Hagar genus, then it becomes a little easier. So let me, however, state that the rank is not equal to the Hagar genus because there is a theorem by Tao Li. It was conjectured to be the same by Waldhausen, but this is false. There is a theorem by Tao Li such that the Hagar genus of M minus a rank of pi 1 of M can be arbitrary and large. So some care has to be taken into account. So now if you think about, however, using the Hagar genus to understand our manifold, then it reduces to understanding how the gluing works. And the fact is that the manifold only depends on, so as a topological manifold depends on a differentiable manifold on the element, the gluing map or the class of the gluing map. In what Bruce already introduced, it was a mapping class group, mod S. So this is a group of different morphisms of the boundary surface S divided out by the different morphisms, which are isotopic to the identity. So in other words, if you take two different morphisms that are isotopic, you get the same manifold back. And actually, it depends on much less on a double coset, but this will not be important with the reason being that an element, if you have a different morphism of the boundary surface, which extends to the three manifold, then we are actually in the setup of Bruce's theorem that we deal with pulling everything back by different morphisms of the three manifold. And so this is not what we will be interested in. So now the mapping class group here. This is a nice group. It's finally presented. It's finally generated, was proven by Lekorich finding, sort of recovering of an old theorem by Dain and Nielsen. And then it's finally presented. This was initiated by Hedger-Sressen, the same Hedger as before. And then there is work by Weinweb. So this was done in the early 80s. Everything was done in the early 80s, Lekorich's earlier. So now what we can do is we can choose now a probability measure nu on mod S. So for the sake of sort of making things simple, let's assume that it's finally supported, and that the support generates mod S. For example, you could take a simple probability measure which just takes a final generating set and gives each of these generators an equal weight, such that the weight sum up to one. And then you get such a probability measure, and then you get a random walk on mod S. And what you can ask now is, I mean, what is a random manifold? Which random manifolds, in some sense, may be easier to study than other manifolds with other properties. Now I have the challenge here that I have to somehow maneuver the blackboards. All right. So what I mean a random walk, so what we do is, I mean, we have a probability space. So the probability to go from the identity to one of my generators is exactly what is prescribed by this measure. So it's a total mass of this generator. And then the probability, so we go here, say, from the identity to some point G, with probability, say, epsilon. And so now we start our process again. So we have this weight epsilon. And we go to the next step. So we attach a generator here. And then we ask ourselves what is the probability to go from the G epsilon to the next element, which is of the form G epsilon times S, where S is one of these generating things. And this will be given according to the weight of this S. And then we have to sum up overall ways to get to this point in order to get the probability. But now we can ask ourselves what is a random property. Let me define this formula. A property P holds for a random three manifold of rank G, say, if the probability for P tends to one with the step lengths of the random walk tends to infinity. So now what does that mean? We fix the genus. So we fix the genus of this handle body. Now we look at all elements in this mapping glass group. And we ask ourselves, I mean, we produce now using the elements in the mapping glass group, we produce three manifolds by gluing them together with this corresponding diffeomorphism. And diffeomorphism will present in this glass. So we glue together to this manifold. And we ask ourselves, what are the expected properties of such a manifold as a step length scores to infinity? Now I assume, which was proven by Dunfield and Thurston, maybe 2000, about 2000. And it says a random, so random three manifold in the sense of rank G. So it's not clear that the rank is actually equal to G. If you start this process, a random three manifold of rank G has rank G. So the rank is actually equal to G of the fundamental group, and not smaller, not bigger, has HECA genus equal to G. So the HECA genus is actually this G and not anything smaller. So you could do some sort of cancellation here that produces, for example, this fear. And the HECA genus of this fear is definitely zero in the way you construct it. So the random manifold is actually HECA genus G. And it is hyperbolic. So now let me state a theorem that I proved in joint work with my student Gabriele Biacchi. So what we showed is that a random, so we cannot prove McMullan's conjecture. But we can prove the following. So a random three manifold of rank G McMullan's theorem holds two. And we showed something else which is related to some other geometry quantities that you associate to such a manifold. And maybe show that for random three manifold. So McMullan's conjecture holds two, meaning that there is a constant only depending on the rank here, that a random three manifold has satisfied McMullan's conjecture for this particular constant. And for random three manifold, we have that of rank G in the sense that we have that lambda 1 of m, the first eigenvalue of m, is contained in and now comes a uniform constant b over the volume of m squared and a constant depending on G over the volume of m squared. So we somehow understand at least part of the spectrum. That means we understand the smallest eigenvalue for such a manifold. Now, let me add some remarks on this lambda 1 of m. So where does this estimate come from? This comes from an old theorem of Rick Shane. What he proved in, I have to check the date for an 82. What he proved is that regardless for all closed hyperbolic three manifolds over under some suitable curvature conditions, so if say n, let me give a different symbol, so make sure that we are not in the realm of hyperbolic manifolds anymore, but n of uniformly bounded curvature, uniformly bounded curvature closed say dimension. I mean, this theorem works for all dimensions, but we have looked at dimensions v. So the constants depend on the dimension and the curvature. Then lambda 1 of m is bigger equal than some constant b. And again, this constant depends on the data that I was discussing. So in the case of the pinch negative curvature, b is actually explicit. That's nice. Now, this was generalized to finite volume manifolds of negative curvature per random. And let's see, Randall, sorry, and Dodger, in 86. So let me discuss briefly what is known for the upper bound. So here, what we say is for random three manifold, this is essentially shop. So this is essentially what we expect. Of course, this c of g is not really explicit, unfortunately. But I mean, this is all what we can say. Let me discuss a little bit where upper bounds for the first eigenvalue come from, because it will somehow show you how things are a little bit related. So the first upper bound comes from the celebrated Chica constant. So what is this? This is something that is kind of very easy to write down, which makes it so attractive. So the Chica constant is the infimum. Probably all have seen this before. Overall, set E, so submanifolds E, that are hyper surfaces dividing my manifold into two pieces. And now we look at the volume, or the surface area. If in our case, it will be a two dimensional manifold, then we can look at the surface area of this E divided over the minimum over the volume of A and volume of B, where these are the two components that I obtained by cutting along E. So in other words, I have A disjoint union of B is equal to M minus E. This is a way to write it down. So this is a celebrated Chica constant. And now, what the Chica inequality says at lambda. Yeah, that was funny. So the Chica constant is nowadays, so very celebrated. I'm very sort of honored that now Jeff just ended the move. So the Chica constant, this lambda 1 is bigger equal to H2S squared over M over 4. All right. And so this gives a lower bound for lambda 1. This looks the same as here, but I mean now we also have under some curvature assumptions and dimension restrictions, we have an upper bound that comes from the work of Boozor. And Boozor showed that lambda 1 of M is less or equal. And these constants now depend on the dimension and the curvature, but I mean here everything is bounded. It's less or equal than B times H of M plus H squared of M. So this was proven in the 80s. This gives an upper bound for lambda 1 of M and let me now sort of quote a theorem that allows us to use the upper bound. Oops, now this was to use the upper bound coming from the Chica constant to give us, in the case we are interested in, to give us a bound on lambda 1. And this is work of Mark Lackenby. So Mark Lackenby proved in 2006 the following beautiful film. So it's very explicit. And he showed that this Chica constant of M, so now we look at M a closed type of Bollack's V manifold. So this is less or equal than 4 pi times. And so in order to formulate it in the sharp form, I don't use a HAKAR genus. I use a HAKAR Euler characteristic. So this is given by 2 HAKAR genus minus 2. And you divide out over the volume of M. And now if you put this together, we get immediately that lambda 1 of M is contained in universal constant B over volume of M squared and some constant over the volume of M. And this always holds true in the case of hyperbolic V manifolds using this theorem of Lackenby and what we saw before. Now this turned out to be conjecturally somehow not sharp in our case, the upper bound. The lower bound is, as I showed you, up to constant, but conjecturally, so is the conjecture, if the bank. So let G be the bank of pi 1 of M. Then lambda 1 of M should be less than some constant over the volume of M. And now comes an explicit exponent 2 to the power 2G minus 2 over 2 to the power 2G minus 2 minus 1. That looks a bit funny. So the exponent is 2 to the power 2G minus 2 over 2 to the power 2G minus 1. Sorry, 2G minus 2 minus 1. So this is a little smaller than this one. So you have a little higher exponent. So this is a conjecture that this upper bound should be OK. And this is essentially this is true and sharp for manifolds, which fiber. So hyperbolic V manifolds, which fiber over the circle. And I guess that the same should hold true in general. But I mean, we are very far away from proving this. So this is due to myself and to work with Hong Kong bike and Ilya Gekhtman independently due to Lensen and Suto. So that's the picture. And now let me spend the last maybe 10 minutes so giving you some idea on how to prove the theorem that I wrote down for the random three manifold and a little bit what kind of tools go in. So the tools is actually a combination of things that were discovered somehow after Perlman and tools that were developed before Perlman's work and the Ricci flow does not enter. So Perlman does not enter. So what the starting point is, the starting point is foundational work of Jaya Minsky and then collaboration of Jaya Minsky together with Jeff Brock and Dick Canary. And so what Jaya proved is this is an amazing theorem. And then so Brock, Canary, Minsky. So they proved the following. So for M closed hyperbolic as before, I don't write this down for the sake of time saving, fibering over the circle. So if I have a closed manifold which fibers over the circle, then this admits an infinite cyclic covering whose fundamental group is the fundamental group of a closed surface. So M hat, the infinite cyclic cover, pi 1 of M hat is equal to pi 1 of some surface, Sg of some genus. There exists an explicit model manifold. So that means a manifold that you can write down by hand, where you can write down the geometry by hand explicitly. And the curvature is a bounded curvature. The curvature bounds do depend on the Gs or Gs fixed, a bounded curvature, negative curvature. This can be arranged in such that this model metric is uniformly by-lipschitz to the hyperbolic metric. And of course, this model manifold satisfies McVown's conjecture. That's something amazing. I mean, so I discussed at the beginning of this lecture how you can describe surfaces explicitly. So in the case of surface, there's no big deal. But here we can write down, for those particular manifolds, we can write down explicitly how the geometry looks like. Let me recall also a theorem, a celebrated theorem of Egan-Egel, so he proved that any M, so M closed hyperbolic admits a finite cover, fibering over the circle. Now you might think that you are set with these two results, but you are not very far from being set, simply because the degree of this cover cannot be controlled.  And so we don't know. We cannot argue using the injectivity radius. But now, so the goal is somehow to try to understand somehow how you obtain an arbitrary manifold using the information, or at least a random manifold, using the information that you get from this theorem. Now what the idea is, the idea is very simple. And then comes some tools that were sort of paper almond, which I'm going to explain to you. So the idea for random three manifold. And let me now give you the idea for the control on lambda 1 because this is a little easier. The idea for random three manifold is somehow you have information on the gluing map. You don't have information on the geometry, but you have information on the gluing map. And now how you would like to think about a random three manifold is as follows. So you have your two handle bodies. And you glue them together with an element in this mapping class group, which is very large. Here you have a handle body. Now what you think of it, this is sort of a precise piece. Here you have a handle body. And now just pictorial you think of as if we didn't glue them directly together along the boundary.   And now you think of this manifold being decomposed into three pieces. You have these pieces. This piece that is, I mean, a different morphic to S-class this interval. You have here the bottom and the top. You have here handle body where you know nothing much about. And now you try to use Minsky's model for this piece somehow. You think of this piece as being part of this manifold or piece of the manifold that you obtained by taking a manifold fibering over the circle by taking this infinite circle cover. And you like to import this piece somehow into such a manifold. This is actually what you can do for the random manifold. In the following sense, you can identify gluing regions where you produce the following picture. So it's possible to decompose this manifold M into three components. Say V1, V0, V1, V2. And these components are as follows. So V0 is stiffenmorphic to a handle body. V1 is stiffenmorphic to the surface cross, say, an interval. Let me take an open interval. And V2 is stiffenmorphic to a handle body. Now, in addition, in this case of, so you use some information on the random manifold to do this in such a way that you can equip these pieces with some hyperbolic metric suitable. And then you glue the pieces. So the metrics on the pieces, glue them to along the overlap. So you think of it as these pieces overlap. These are open submanifold. They overlap somehow along V0, intersected V1, and V1 intersected V2. We will have V1, V0, and V1, V2, which is joined. We glue them along these intersection components to metrics of bounded negative curvature. Now, we don't quite know what's going on on V0, but on V1. But we can produce this model geometry on V1, where we have a lot of control. And the model geometry is imported from the work of Jai Minsky and his collaborators. So we can arrange, we can assure, that a large piece, a large portion of V1 is uniformly bilibchitz embedded in the hyperbolic manifold. So what does it mean is we have this metric which has bounded curvature. And we have this large region where we have essential perfect control. And we can assure that this large region, though we haven't basically the identity map, which maps this region into the hyperbolic manifold, this original manifold has a hyperbolic metric. This is a uniform bilibchitz map. So the geometry is different, but nevertheless, we have a uniform bilibchitz map in between. And now, we could use the control on this V1 if we knew somehow that we have some control on V0 and V2 as well. And this is a little more difficult, because this work of Minsky and his collaborators is not valid in this case. But we, however, can assure also that we can assure for the metric of variable curvature, the volume of V0 union V1, V2, sorry, is much, much less than the volume of V1. So almost all the volume is eaten up by this region where we have control. But now what we are going to do. So what comes now, what we like to say is this geometry here is not too far away from the geometry that we're aiming at, it's a hyperbolic geometry. So the entire summer, I stared at this problem and tried to use a Ricci flow to get this settled. And I never succeeded. I asked everyone that I knew who works on the Ricci flow to help me out. And I didn't get any answer. And then eventually, I remembered that there was another fantastic tool, and that's called the BCG map. All right. And I'm very happy now to say that this was, came to my rescue, the work of Besson-Coudreaux and Galovic states, is this prepairman. So what that proof is, that now we are in a situation where we can apply it. So what that proof is, and so this is some souped up version of the work is that, in the case at hand, there exists a map. Now, we are talking about the same underlying manifolds, but the geometry is different between the variable curvature. And here comes to the constant curvature.  It's essentially decreasing volume. It's a point-wise decreasing volume, essentially. So point-wise. It's not literally true, but I mean, so let me cheat a little bit, point-wise, decreasing volume. And now, we use this, and so now we analyze this map, what it does on the part that we have a perfect control. And we realize there are nothing much happens, so the volume essentially remains the same. This uses precise information on this piece in the middle. And on these pieces here, v0 and v1, where we do not have much control, it decreases the volume. So now, we use a volume information to get lambda 1 going very easily. So this allows you to show, to deduce, that the volume of this v0 and union v1 for the hyperbolic metric is not bigger. Not bigger is not literally true. There is a small constant. But this is, I mean, we had arranged this for the variable curvature metric that the volume of this union is much, much smaller. It's not bigger than for the variable curvature metric. Now, even more, this approach by Besson-Côte-Var and Galoux is so amazing that it can be souped up and proved. So I don't use exactly what they do, but I use a slight variation of what they do. And it can be souped up to also prove McMullen's conjecture in the situation where I have to analyze a little bit what these great minds did in their work and then using my souped up version that get me going.  Thank you very much. I'm not sure it makes much sense, but could one hope to get some average value in this Ago theorem you quoted? And could one hope this number to be one and then get a proof you want? Here's a theorem that we can prove. V meaning me and seven, it was a paper that I wrote with seven other courses, so I don't name all of them. But what we proved is that for the random sweep, so when you fix a number, any number of 10,000, for the random sweep manifold, you will not find a cover of degree 10,000, which does a job, so you have to go a higher degree, yeah. So this, I mean, all this can be sort of made a quite, so this isn't the sort of the power of random method that you can make sure that you don't try to do something that's not going to work. Is there any geometrical understanding about the bone on the ramp that you get in the random case? Sorry, what? Is this C of K on the ramp? Is there any geometrical understanding of these constructs? Yeah, I mean, you can basically, this can be given an explicit interpretation. Actually, the C of K can be more or less calculated, more or less explicitly. So you have to do a lot of refined analysis. Depends a little bit on the random work, however. But you have to, this kind of refined analysis has to do with dynamics of the mapping class group, actually, that can be made quite explicit. So I'll question you. So thank you again.


Well hello and welcome to Understand Men Now. I'm your host Jonathan Asley of JonathanAsley.com and I'm so excited to be shooting this short video for you today. Our topic, Men Value Women They Earn or Men Value Women They Pursue. Wrong! Okay, I'm sorry for being so blunt but really quickly if you're new to my YouTube channel check out the link below to hit the subscribe button, hit the bell so you can get notified of new content. Okay, Men Value Women That They Pursue Wrong! You know there's this fantasy, I'm sorry there's this misconception it's a it's wrapped in a fantasy that men value what they pursue. In other words if they pursue something if they make a tremendous amount of effort they will eventually value it. In other words they will put it up on a pedestal and set it apart from everything else on the planet. Okay? I mean let's think about this for a second.  I want to stick my finger down my throat and so let me give you an example and I'm going to use my son Colin that's him right there and the graduating boy right there. Back when he was 14 he wanted to buy this video game and he worked really hard and he worked really hard to save up money to get this video game and then this video game came out on midnight at Best Buy so we went there and stood in line from five in the afternoon because he wanted to get it right away and he worked really hard he put a lot of effort into it and we stood in line and waited waited waited we got inside the store shortly after midnight when it opened and he got this video game and he played it and he played it and he played it and then a new video game came out and he did the same thing and another video came out and he did the same thing he worked hard and he valued it until he no longer cared about it so where is this perception that when we work hard for something we value it that is a crock of shit we only value what we genuinely appreciate and in today's world this is the biggest issue that we're dealing a relationship is a lack of appreciation for one another in fact this is one of the fundamental challenges with men and women today because we literally begin to take things for granted let me ask you a question have you been to a funeral ever I'm sure you have right when you're at a funeral and you're hearing the eulogy and they're talking about this wonderful person who's your friend someone you care about a loved one maybe and you think to yourself when you leave I'm not going to waste one more minute of my life I'm going to go out and live life to the fullest and then three days later you go right back to your old routine what happened you said you were going to live life to your fullest but you went back to your old routine men value things that they earn my son worked hard and valued it and it was on the shelf a month later it's because it's human nature we don't value what we earn and so don't buy into this narrative because a guy works hard in the beginning of the relationship that means he's going to be all in for the rest of his life because we know that's a crock of shit and ladies you're buying into a narrative that you know subconsciously doesn't work anyway so stop buying into it and when others give you this advice don't buy into it as well this is when the reason is why a really good relationship fails because you're under this notion that a man has to put in effort and effort and effort and effort and effort because if he doesn't put in effort he doesn't value but think about this have you heard the story where you take a boiling hot water right and you drop a frog in it the frog is going to jump out really quickly okay as soon as he jumps in the water he's going to drop he's going to jump out okay but if you put a frog in lukewarm water and then you turn up the heat and it slowly starts to simmer it's going it's going to eventually die but the point is a relationship is a slow simmer it's not a full-blown massive effort means he loves you it doesn't mean he loves you a genuine real relationship is built through time through trust through commitment and if you're not familiar with the book eight dates read this book so you can understand the mechanics of a healthy happy relationship because a relationship isn't built on the the effort has to be mutual you're both at the 50-yard line giving effort to one another when the effort is mutual and consistent it has the greatest chance for success it's not the man going past the 50 past the 50-yard line to bring you to the 50-yard line it's that you're meeting each other on the 50-yard line of effort because when effort's imbalanced it's like this you're your efforts here and his efforts here where does that make sense I know I wouldn't date a woman if her effort is here and my effort is here I want our effort to be mutual I want it to be like a ping-pong game where it's a mutual dance of working to getting to know one another but this fantasy that men make effort when a man pursues a woman it's going to work out that's wrong I'm just sorry it just drives me nuts when I hear this rhetoric so stop buying into this dating advice you get the gist of where I'm going I think you understand hey look you might have something to say so you think you know better than me why don't you post a question and tell me why that's gonna why that has worked in the past because if you're watching this channel there's a chance that your past experiences didn't work and maybe this is one of the narratives that you bought into from all these other coaches to tell you that men are make effort and don't get me wrong when a man likes you he's gonna put in effort that's not the issue but men don't value what they pursue narrative is just a crock of shit and that's I mean that's all I'm here to tell you so don't buy into that okay all right again if you have a question please post it below this resonated with you and you wanted some help with a guy because you're dating a guy and you're pulling your hair out check out the link to discover a schedule of discovery called to see if working with the coaches right for you okay I'm gonna wrap up this videos I always do first off giving myself a big gigantic job to bear a hug of self love just like my book what the heck is self love anyway I'm gonna give you a hug of love I'm gonna ask you to turn to one of your friends and give them a hug of love because hugs are a great source of love and we can all use more love in our lives thanks so much and wishing you a super duper wonderful day bye bye now


Good evening everyone. I hope you all are doing well. I am this is guys. This is just really really really really extra Extra informal. We're just I'm testing something. I am one I don't know it by the way. Tell me if you can tell the difference that there is a That you can see if you can see a difference in this in the way the picture looks. Let me know I am doing something with it. I am testing something This this signal strength matter of fact Where's that so I'm trying to see With what happened the last one that was it sometime last week when my picture just froze on me So I'm trying to I think I figured it out So I want to make sure that doesn't happen again. I don't know what it was doing was sending like something hundred gigabytes of Memory all at once and so it just But then something else happened in my I use when I go when I show the the software here I always use this this according software last night my my Lagos software just kind of just I Don't know what it's doing. I don't know what it's doing So at first it was one particular Media file that I could look at now. It's everything and so I hadn't hadn't had time to go and deal with Their technical support. So I don't know I'll figure it out. I'll mess with it But anyway, I said, you know what? Let me just go ahead while I'm testing this stuff. I've been moving around a lot today And I was actually out at yeah the coast listen. Yes. Yes, the culture is sponsoring this Yes, indeed the culture is sponsoring this so perceptive of you And then my daughter is getting ready to leave My youngest daughter is going out of town to what tomorrow her I think this is her little her best friend and She's not just going out of town. She's going out of the country. I never would have thought in many years I would let my baby go out of the country but but My wife convinced convince me. I never thought that she would want to Did I know that what that Roman Catholic? Oh, did you know Roman Catholics believe they accept Jesus in the mouth? Oh You mean as far as the the bread and the The bread and the Wine is actually being his his body in his blood. Yeah. Yeah, you said I have a hum in the audio Is there a hum now? There was a hum a second ago because my daughter was my other daughter was calling me and so I Sent her to voicemail She should she should actually be watching it. I don't know why she's no You all do you all hear a hum now? Please tell me you don't hear hum now. Please tell me you don't hear him now Please hope not. You said the lighting is perfect. You know what it took me forever I finally got it. I finally got it consistent.  It's a big old. It's a ball Now the ball does a good job that that I don't know what you call those little thing got cob light I think it's what it's called It does a good light up a good job of lighting the whole room I could make it warmer in terms of the temperature or a little wider So I can go from a yellow look to a white look And then what are they called the feel light? And then a little light back there So what am I using this is this is this is ecam. I use ecam Ecam to me it is so much better. I don't know why you might well I guess there's other reason I I hear that OBS is really good It's just technically difficult sometimes To me you you couldn't wait. I guess you could pay me. I guess you could pay me to do What's that stream yard? I just don't like I don't like dream yard If I want to go from one scene to the next thing put up put a video picture of what have you I just you use ecam to Wait a second. Wait a second. You're the hold on Um It didn't dawn on me when I when I until I saw you Yeah, okay. I I know you are uh is Okay, your your name is is it edwardo? Is that your is that your I think it's your name edwardo I think is Edward edwardo. I think Forgive me if I'm saying it incorrectly But uh, yeah guys check out check out his channel to a good brother good brother um But yeah, I ecam ecam is okay. It is okay cool You get your you get your uh Uh, you two personalities confuse sometimes and I don't know as many people as I as I probably should But uh, yeah, it took me a while to kind of get this little lighting going and so Um, I'm going to what's funny is I I've been really thinking about replacing that light because it's just it's not in the way but it's in the way If that makes sense If that makes sense and so um, I was planning on if I didn't have to do this I was going to go ahead and And uh, oh, how am I using my how am I getting my uh my sound in? The sound I'm using this, uh, what do you call this thing the shure the shure seven whatever I don't know what this sure seven something Uh, and it's going in Actually, it's plugged in directly to I have this um This mac studio is plugged in directly into into it Uh, rather than going to the camera the camera is coming out. It was I didn't realize this Listen, this is how Technologically slow I am Yeah, it's yes the the mb7. Yeah, the the shure mb7 Um, I think and you know, I probably should have went with it with the the other one the bigger one Someone said hey the other one the the smaller one just is fine But no actually the bigger one you get more more volume, but that's okay because what I was looking to do was have that have the actual uh microphone out of the shots you couldn't see any of but What difference does it make it's that you all know I'm using the microphone anyway Um, but the camera I I used to well sometimes I do the usb streaming Uh, now I'm going through the hdmi hdmi and With the little the little cam link thing and something with the cam link just did something Uh, and so now I am I'm a little clearer now you can see The beauty of my bald head now So But that but but yeah that that's not that's not through the usb so Anyway, but yeah this this uh, and I got this little this little bitty stream deck I may have to get a bigger stream deck. I may have to get a bigger stream deck because you can cycle through the different pages but You can cycle through the different pages and get to where you want to but If you had a bigger one you can and they don't they don't look they don't cost that much so um Yeah, I was I was thinking about going through the uh through the through xlr too But that's just more that's just more work You want to it was funny though. Here's the funny thing. This is the irony of all of the stuff that i'm doing Here's the irony Before I went on my federal tour Which is so famously spoken about nowadays before I went on my federal tour Uh, a couple of things that I that I used to do in the church Not only just being over the uh, the young adults of college age all the way down to the babies But then also dealing with the sound the audio the videos like that Uh, and just making sure the worship service flow And so making sure and it's kind of weird how that all happened the way this happened guys was We were it was a particular sunday and we were doing something for the youth in in the main in the sanctuary for all of the people And you know, we didn't have at this time. Of course, you know, we're talking about the uh the late early 2000s And so a lot of churches didn't have this you think you take it for granted now but back then Churches didn't have a lot of churches did not have the the screens where you can see the the verses and so forth And so we put up something I had uh, I took two Uh projectors from my office and put it there and just project them to the to the side of the wall And when I did that there was a guy who actually worked at For the government. What was that he worked for social security and they they have this big Sweet of technology and stuff like that. And so he said, you know what that really looks cheesy That is so he said that is so ghetto and just bad-looking. Let's do better next time. So We said what we're gonna do we had a a What do we have some sort of praise night And we were also I was installing some some sound stuff. I went and got a rear A rear projecting screen, but I was borrowing it We use it airplane hanger a hanger wire air hanger wire Whatever you call it hanger wire to hang it so you really couldn't see it But we were written it and I said, you know what I don't want to get back up on on this big gigantic lift So I am several feet in the air probably about 30 or 40 20 30 feet in the air 30 feet 40 feet I'm not sure When you're that high it feels like you're 200 feet in the air So now if I fail I've been messed up If I would have died I've been I wish I'd have died but anyway So no, it's not a real plant behind me. I don't do real plants. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope Nope first of all the cat messes with the plant. So I won't do that but Rather than me Taking it down. I just called the people said, hey, can we have this thing? Can I buy it? And he said well this thing that that listen we make a lot of money off of that That is I would have to sell to you for a thousand dollars Oh no, a thousand dollars And the guys let me think about it for so you see you said this is a church. Yep He said tell you what just give it $200 and you can have it Amen, amen And so I was used to doing all a lot of this technology stuff and then doing video editing and things like that And even used to use adobe the adobe suite Yeah, I don't do it now. I wouldn't you I wouldn't dare use adobe, but You kind of forgot what you knew and then came back now. I'm doing doing this on this side. Who would have who would have thought? No, that's you all are really that is a cheap plant That is some I don't I guess it's made it look like some sort of fern And then there's another one over here You all can't see it But when I start shooting shots over on the other side of the room in the chair You'll see the the course is not set up yet or the syphonese is going. There's not set up yet So anyway But anyway We ended up we ended up having we had a nice little Television sound suite we could record if someone wanted to come and do some actual professional recording We could do all that kind of stuff Anyway, and it was it was a headache It was a serious headache Sunday mornings making sure this this this this this this this this and this were done And when I I probably undersold how many things had to have it ready for sunday morning So no, my video didn't freeze. No, no, no, no, no, no Don't do that rooming or rooming Yeah, that's the point. I'm trying to figure out because what I'm doing is I'm watching to see how much Uh memory How much ram is being used how much memory is being used right now? So I'm literally looking at that I'm looking at my signal strength so And what's funny is we have we have two internet um providers two internet providers Thanks to the thanks of the u.s. Government They messed us up during what was that um covid y'all remember covid covid During covid this dog. I'm this dog. I really want to choke this dog. I want to choke her. She barks at everything And she's about this big she's about this big she barks at everything But then when someone comes someone questionable comes by the house. She doesn't bark I'd like to get rid of her but I can't You know, I can't because my daughter my second oldest daughter is her dog But when she moved out and she's married That dog is still here. She loved her so much.  She'll come and just lay beside me But she is the worst. I mean the worst She's horrible. She is horrible, but um Did you see that? No, I haven't seen any questions. I haven't seen any questions You know why because I'm just what's the word? I'm just hanging out. I can I can take some questions So listen, I'll take questions about anything take questions about um the internet Uh take questions about the bible. By the way, everybody is is is making normal There will be no choking of the dogs girl. No choking of the dog But everybody's just all abuzz over this little deal that happened down in alabama And I I think it's kind of it. I think it's getting out of hand I think it's getting out of hand where I'm doing fine. I'm doing I'm doing well. Uh Do see car You know what? I'm not even you know what? Let's just do it this way I'm doing fine. How are you? I can't Yeah, you know what? I'm sorry dcbm how about that But uh, I saw that and where I guess some guys got a little drunk Some good old boys got a little drunk and and jumped and jumped the brother who was the um Why don't we do that the black guys the brother? Jumped the black guy who's a security guard and then um There's a few other black folks there the funny part was The funny part Was the black guy in the in the water swimming that way? I thought that was hilarious But now everybody's making a whole lot out of it and it's now I will say this though The fellas who jumped them they got they they got what they had coming But I think too many people are It's taken on too much of a of a racial tinge And that's that's the only problem about it. Um, so I thought that was that was kind of cool Uh, do I think that the lake of fire is annihilation return? It's eternal torment And he says where the worm never dies. It is it is eternal torment. Why is he bringing up my past? I don't know. Maybe doesn't like my future. Maybe don't like the word my or my future's headed. Maybe didn't like his future I don't know I don't know. I'm start. I'm starting to get the impression That he doesn't like me Yeah, I'm I'm almost ready to say he doesn't like me Or he's just bored How should we respond if you are called the n word? Is it okay to hit? Okay. All right. Let's have a conversation It just got real It just got real. How should you respond if you're called the n word? well Here's the question How do you want to respond? And when I say, how do you want to respond? What do you want the end result to be? The other thing about that This is where and and granted this is where you this is where you're going to have to test because I'm going to assume that you're black But then again white folks get called in word black folks get caught his batting folks I've seen Asian folks call each other in word like what in the world is going on And listen, we literally had fights in prison over people, you know, non-black calling blacks in work But then it got to the point where everybody's called everybody in word. So what do you do? What what what's the goal? Are you trying to teach this person that it's a bad Word that you shouldn't call anybody that is that what you're trying to do?  Why do you want to just punish them? Because it first of all it may not work out the way you want you may want to slap the person person beat you up That's that's happened before too Black folks can't beat up everybody. We ain't the best.   That's fine Go ahead.  So some people Really what it is the reason the the greatest reason grace mercy the reason why why they believe that is because It doesn't seem like it is in fitting with a loving god and it makes sense to them But again, we're not god. Am I sorting through some of the new conversations pertaining to aliens? No, I know I'm not no, I'm not guys when I tell you guys I'm I'm it's not that I I guess I am busy, but I'm just really Unorganized I could be I could be better organized. I could be better efficient That is the that's a the good way of saying unorganized. I'm just not efficient as I should be And so I haven't I've seen Clips or thumbnails people talk about aliens, but I haven't I haven't delved into it. I haven't looked into it But when someone asked me sometime ago, do I think there are aliens? I have no idea If there are god didn't tell us and so it's not as it's not that important to us for our salvation Could there be I guess there could be I don't know, you know, I didn't I can't tell god uh or hey god Did you did you create these aliens? Please don't let it be so please let it be so if it is can we can we get in touch with them? No, so uh You what? No, he did not he came absolutely with nothing He came with I'm talking to my wife my wife and my grandsons Uh, uh three didn't come here with anything. He came with some uh with a pair of clothes But that's it Oh his clothes They're right there on the on the chair Yeah, my grand my grandson was playing with me today and spit on my head today He thought he thought it would be so cute.  I'm sweating. Um Like what is that? And so that's what you spit on me and he smiled. He's he's three We call him three We call him three because his father's name is anthony and his friend if I think it was anthony and his name is anthony He spit on me it was like What Are you are you And so I didn't yell at him This wasn't a lot of spit because he can't spit that well, but I said don't do that again.  Why are you crying?   We had a good time He sat there watched played his little game and watched some stuff and then Took a nap and ran around and did what three-year-olds do This question I have been having since my church pastor Preached yesterday from matthew chapter three chapter three and four When did jesus fully realize he was the son of god on uh, his When did he realize he was the son of god? Well, the bible doesn't say Clearly Did he know he was the son of god at one? Did he know he who he was as a you know as a as an infant when he first started crawling because y'all do realize Jesus did not come out of the womb walking He grew like a like a regular kid Didn't say so I wouldn't say but I don't think it took him long I don't think he I don't think he took it took him long to uh to figure it out.  He is he is god. So it's not like he didn't know So I don't I don't know I don't I don't I don't know um I wouldn't what I would not do I would not do is be definitive in your statement to say that He uh, he knew at a certain age because it just doesn't know The earliest account that we have of him definitely knowing when he was 12 And he said did you not know telling it telling mary and joseph that I mean that my father's business so There's just no way to know. Oh, okay And I'll get to uh, I'll ask one of these again. They don't all have to be bible questions guys They don't we're not going to be here too long But I'm just okay. Hold on. Let me check my let me check with my deal Ah She's holding up quite nicely. I feel like I feel like is it scotty. Yeah, I feel like scotty on the on the enterprise I almost I almost want to speak in a scottish accent, but you said Oops in john 21 15 17. Why did oh, okay. I already talked about you when jesus is speaking to peter Something that something that you guys need to know John 21 This is interesting as a matter of fact something that people I think Sometimes people make too much of some of the words Yeah, I'm gonna tell you what I mean by that Have you all heard? Let me come back off springy. Have you all heard people say Make making a deal a big deal or issue out of the Ray my word This this this rainbow word gotta gotta get a rainbow word Well, I would say this don't do that Don't do that because The words that are used for reyma or legate or any words that's used to say to speak It is they're they're the same. They really are they can be they can be used interchangeably It's not that reyma is so it's it's it's more spiritual than the other words. It's it's not it's not So But then here's another example and I bring it up because of this example right here in john 21 15 Uh, he says simon peter. Do you love me more than these and the word that is used there is Gotta use some greek guys is the word. I got pice or I got pace I got bumps or I got pice Uh, and then we go down. Yes lord, you know that I Now look what he says Philo You know that I love you Now there are three words that are brought up and you guys heard this before that the three words To convey love agape filet oh and Gotta find that word eros eros Is there a difference well eros it is That word is different, but what about the other two filet oh and agape or gapo Is there a difference? well not really Agape is most commonly used in terms of how god loves us But you'll there are passages where we love each other in the agape way, but we also where We love each other in the same godly manner using filet oh Because there's passages where jesus loves god and god loves uh, uh, jesus loves the father I think there's one also where he where it's precipitated in the in the word filet oh is used also And so here's one where he says because I love you Uh hate filet oh say which is because I love you So this word is different than agape now what happens is somebody's going to try to make a big difference out of that particular word So we'll see peter said it the wrong way. He didn't say it the way jesus said it Okay, and so let's keep reading.  He said lord, you know and he said uh filo again You know, I love you. He said to him Shepherd my sheep. He said to him a third time simon son of john. Do you love me now? Look how jesus said it though This is why you don't make you shouldn't make too big a deal because what did jesus say jesus used that word again filet uh He said uh simon. He only us. I'm sorry Heo knew ianu These words uh filet may which is do you love me? Peter was grieved. He said to him a third time. You know Do you do you love me? You know, look at the word that he uses filet And so he used the word kyla get out to which is this the other word for for to say or speak Uh And he says you know that I love you same word filo tend to my sheep so There is you don't really want to make a big deal out of the difference between the words because even here jesus uses the words interchangeably Most commonly though when we're talking about a godly love when we're talking about that kind of love You'll see and we know we're talking about because the context we know we're talking about how god loves us Most commonly you'll see that word uh agape Uh, but filo is also used as well just like in this example as well. So they can be interchangeable. I wouldn't make too I Sometimes when you're preaching or you're teaching you do want to make a big deal out of it. So you're you're getting really really deep Sometimes you can sometimes you can sometimes right below the surface Uh in the languages, there's a there's a fuller richer Understanding that that you can get But then sometimes it's not sometimes we we kind of make stuff up Or we think we're getting somewhere. I'll give you another perfect example You guys have heard this word dunamis used all the time that see that's where we get our our english word for dynamite And so this dunamis means power No, it doesn't not power in essence. It just means power or the ability to you can do something Able that's all it means. So if I say that I lifted this cup up Right by the way, great cup out of this cup up I I would use that same word dunamis. There's nothing nothing powerful about that. Um I'll pick up Somebody's contact lens case I I I have the ability to pick this up It's not nothing powerful about it, but that same word we use it. So sometimes we can make something more out of a particular word So somebody thought Napoleon dynamite Uh, so anyway I wouldn't I wouldn't I wouldn't do I wouldn't make two now There are times where you do have to make something out of the words or use words do matter But sometimes there are words that are used interchangeably Okay, so The deliverance ministry start with Derek Prince. No, it did not no it did not it didn't start with Derek Prince as a matter of fact, uh the Deliverance ministry of what we see it it predates him there was some of this stuff that was happening before Uh, matter of fact in different cultures and with different religions When you see Muslims and when you see buddhas when you see a lot of pagans doing that when you realize this is So but true deliverance true deliverance started with Jesus True deliverance started with Jesus. How about that? What did I click? Oh, I already clicked it. Okay Let me check my signal. Let me check my signal.  Let me check one other thing One second guys click on this Click on that And make sure okay cool All right, cool How was it going? That's I'm glad you asked a question. We need more churches need more churches to be added to so now You will appreciate the fact that they're they're being put in um manually I wish I could just click on this and just Upload all of me and like that. No So by the way, if you happen to see one when it when it goes up If you happen to see one, it's like that's questionable. Please let us know Please let us know our feminist in heaven If they place their faith in Christ and died, yeah Uh Feminist or feminism has changed over the course of time Feminists in the 60s and 70s are not like feminist today They just are not so Anyway Is anthony richeson the guy for us? I hope so I think I was talking to a buddy of mine And I said, no, I think he looks good. He hadn't been he hadn't he's only got like a year worth of experience in college so I think he's gonna struggle at sometimes maybe because having the best arm You can have all as a matter of fact, let me just use his football analogy to make a life Uh comparison you can have all the the tools You can have all the talent But there's just something about the wisdom that comes from experience Knowing what to expect Making the right in football making the right reads knowing where they're going to be at okay And looking at how The other team is aligned how your opposition is lined up against you where they're going to be because it's not just good enough to Know that this man that you're going to throw the ball to is going to be right there Because if you throw it right there and you already know the defensive back is going to be right there Then what what does it matter? You need to also have enough wisdom to know how life is going to play out or how this part is going to play out Something a lot of kids don't get something that a lot of kids don't get Because they they can think they can see And they feel like they understand but not realize hey, this is this is When I drive When I drive I drive defensively now now when I was a teenager It took me forever to understand what defensive driving is You get on the Texas highways now you better know what defensive driving is so I assume that when I'm in my lane That everyone is getting ready to come into my lane I assume that this car right here is getting rid of some of these breaks I assume that there's getting ready to be an accident everywhere that I at every turn I assume that the guy behind me is not paying attention. So if I slow down too fast, he's gonna hit me Right Well, some of those same little things you have to be thinking about as you're growing up And that's just that's just what wisdom doesn't so our I'm saying all this as a question about a quarterback I think he's gonna be fine, but not not this year. He's got he's got to develop not be if now listen If he wins if he wins one game I'm I'm whoo-hooing and yeah, we're going to Super Bowl and then the next week We could be 45 to 10 because he threw 12 interceptions So No, I don't I have no idea uh who that church is I I don't know Sorry, could I explain Matthew? 11 12 I try let's see what it says I promise you this that if I don't know, I'll just make up something. How about that from the days of John DeBat? What did I just do? Oh, it stayed up there from the day really wait a second huh normally Informal again guys, but normally when I click on this on this The uh the little picture right there or how I do it get right there goes away. It slides away But it didn't okay Matter of fact what I was told to do is to put a timer on so they don't just stay up there. But anyway From the days of John the Baptist until now the king of heaven. Oh the king of heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force Tell you what I'm gonna do Is he healing Put it in the comment section and I'm gonna send you the video that I did over that You need to read what we do sometimes is the king of god suffers violent violent take it by force He didn't say a song about it and it's wrong That we're supposed to be forceful in how we respond backwards. No um He's really speaking about how He's really giving a story about John the Baptist and what he what he's gone through Um, there's more to it and I don't I don't want to go into it right now um, but I tell you what, uh Am I sending right keelin? Make sure as soon as we're finished as soon as we're finished Put a comment in so I can send you the link to that video How should you respond to true pastors who actually do have integrity for it? How should you respond to true pastors who actually have integrity and preach the truth? Uh by as paul says by giving them honor By giving them honor. That's why that's how um We should treat pastors the way god wants you to Hold them in high esteem And then when they mess up then you you deal with them, but but again remember Uh, there's a higher bar to leveling accusations against the pastor And when I say accusations, I mean something sinful something in the heart The pastor's going to mess up He has to you know why because he's even being he's going to mess up And I think the good part about him messing up is that he helps us to see that Hey, he's still human, but we still give honor to those that labor Amongst us, so If you've got a good one then let one let him know Um, and then you know support him support the church It's difficult When the pastor is trying to think because there's there should be There should be a lot of things that are on his plate You think about that. It's just the the preaching of sunday what's happening on sunday. No, there's more to it than that There is more to it than that Um Because he's got hopefully he's got elders He's got different auxillars and and depends upon how the church is ruled How if it's elder ruled or what have you I won't get into that but The the fact of it is The fact is uh, he's got a lot he's got to deal with There are sheep that he has to tend to somebody's in a hospital somebody's sick somebody's getting married somebody just passed away All the different things because you know what else he has to worry about that we don't think about the the uh logistical issues involved The lights could have to be on the temperature the phones dependent upon the size of the church matter of fact it didn't even depend on the size of the church Let me recap that retract that it doesn't even depend on the size of the church If it's a small church If it's a medium-sized church 100 members 200 300 400 whatever you if it's a mega church 1,000 5,000 10,000 The pastor is responsible for the lights He's responsible for the the seat cushion that you sit on He's responsible for the condition of the bathroom He's responsible for the parking lot the conditions parking lot. He's responsible for the key is running around the church You know why I say that? Because the first time that someone has a legitimate complainer who's gonna hear him It's going to get back to him and he's going to be treated as though. Hey, what's wrong with his bathroom pastor? As though the pastor is putting together a sermon while he's sweeping the bed so He's got to be a good leader a good make sure that he's delegated to the right people But it has to also inspire the people encourage them and so forth Hopefully he's not beating up. Listen, you don't want to walk on your pastor And he's got his finger in in the in the face of the janitor if I see one more spot one more smear on that mirror That's not what you don't you don't want to see that either. You don't want to see some overbearing pastor either So he's got a lot and so when you find you have that you have a good one Well, then let him know let him know and it doesn't have to be it doesn't have to be mild and tear Just say thank you pastor. I just want to let you know that I appreciate what you did. I appreciate what you're doing I understand how hard it can be Because you think about how hard how hard you have it with another member of the church Well multiply that times the other members because he's if mary's got a problem with sue Then mary goes the pastor and he's got to deal with that but then sue goes a pastor now what do you do? So Okay, hold on let me look up something Do I think that there will ever be uh Wreck it reconciliation Do y'all know how many times I've been I've been asked that by people who call them Hey, Cory, let's just want to see if we can if we can reconcile get this, you know fix this make Fix me some reconciliation. I said, okay. What do you want me to do? What do you want me to do what or what are you going to stop doing? Once you tell me what to do or what to stop doing Then gladly Well, well, I just hope I listen I do too. I do too I wished everybody on the planet liked me. I wish everybody on the planet just loved them some Cory mine, but that's not the case so Um, it's not going to be the case Can I tell you this and this just for everybody this this is really for everybody Um, I have no what what did you just put? What did you just write? What did you type in here? You type something in chinese or japanese or Okay, negative. I can't figure this out. I can't figure this out Okay, I see what it is I'm gonna copy and paste it and see what it was. You just typed over here fella I'm sorry guys. It just caught me and I need to see what that is. I need to see what that is How about hold on one second. I have no idea what what that is. All right That means I have no idea what that means. It didn't tell me normally go This is I have no idea. I have no idea. You didn't mess up the whole live stream because that's all that chinese I'm sorry Um, but anyway The bible says to as as much as it is with with you to be at peace with everybody Just as much as it is up to you. So if if you can do something about it, then fine No, you're fine. You're fine. Jeff If if it's up to you then fine if if if there's nothing you can do about it What you have to do and not just in one of those situations It has to be one of those things where You um are being godly Whatever you do make sure that if god is taking notes Analyzing giving you a grade I want to make sure that god gives me a good grade that I look good on this test because that's what it is a test And so and sometimes you you you can't reconcile sometimes a person should not be reconciled with you Sometimes a person needs to get reviewed sometimes a person needs to be put in their place Sometimes a person needs to be knocked down Sometimes a person needs to be killed. But guess who doesn't determine that? I don't god does you don't god does or maybe What's happening is is good for you Either one you deserve it or two it grows you Somebody's saying something about me now. What is it? What's it going to be like in five years? In 10 years in 20 years probably far worse, so What should I do it again?  I think I think it's long questions I'm reading the first part of it seems good It says when when is it okay to use your reasoning to figure things out where the bible doesn't give you all the details for example I assume that cane was rejected because he didn't offer what god told him Well, I think you make a correct assumption In this in this regard you there there are some times where you give some some reasoning Now if there is an example there's an opportunity for you to say hey listen, but i'm not totally sure Then offer that offer that caveat to say you know what this is what I believe but i'm not totally sure So in this issue with can't matter of fact, there's a lot of things such as such as that came Can't enable issue in the in genesis Can't enable matter of fact it says in genesis is a five that in the course of time they were bringing an offering to the lord Well, why were they bringing an offering to the lord? Well, it doesn't tell us that he said so But clearly god had to say how to do so You know why we would think that god told them how to do so because there's a right and a wrong way to do So why do we think that there's a right and a wrong way to do so because cane didn't do it the right way And god said that if you do good And then he says but if you do bad then sin lies so There's there's clearly a right way. We just weren't told when it happened We weren't given all the parameters of their offering Folks who say well, he should have brought an animal instead of because he was a tiller of the ground Well, no, he was a tiller of the ground So we can't we can't assume or the assumption that Eve sin that eve lied when she said To to the serpent he said don't eat of it and don't even touch it We and some folks will assume well eve lied he just made that up. I don't know eve hadn't sinned yet Eve had not sinned and so we can't impugn her would sin So but so but to answer your question There are times where you do need it. It's good to go ahead and use reasoning but If you don't have extra information from the bible to back up your reasoning Then let folks know let me you know what this is what what I assume here's why I assume so and then that'll be that Because I can promise you whatever your your answer or whatever you give Somebody's gonna hold that against you, but if you just give yourself an out hey, listen, I could be wrong But here's why I say this Can I say why people? I'm say god doesn't punish anymore like in the old testament you mean like sitting fire down on people I wouldn't say that I wouldn't say that at all um He sends tornadoes down. He sends uh hurricanes and water Fire Ground opening up and swallowing people that's happened buildings falling down on people airplanes crashing so Whenever someone dies From the youngest to the oldest From just natural Um health complications or something that we would think is kind of gruesome When you die, that's god when you're born. That's god.  No, we don't see that So now if that doesn't happen anymore, why didn't happen anymore? I don't know could couldn't say Couldn't say are people right to call it a bet Between god and satan for the soul of joe. Please answer I guess if you if you want to but understand there's there's really no wager It's not hey satan. I watch this. I bet you I bet she's gonna do this and if not, what would we bet? No No, um, it really wasn't a bet So I I honestly I would not use that word matter of fact I would say don't use that word one because it's gonna cause a conversation in the storm But you don't even need to have no, it wasn't a bet. You know, I wasn't bet because god didn't call it a bet He just said have you considered my servant joe and say as well only because he's this and that No watch do this watch him now What it really is is a display God is displaying the character of joe But then also displaying himself as well. So that that's what I would say I wouldn't do that Huh, hold on. What hold on? Hello, Cory um I guess somebody called it quits with 20 year old female pastor.  Oh is our Oh refresh me refresh me You're the one are you the one that that you were talking to the to the young lady and she believes in female pastor She wants to be one if I if I'm correct if I'm correct. I might um so All you can do is all you can do you support what the bible says the bible tells you this Then that's what you go by. I don't care who gets offended by that They should see now if they if they're using the same bible as you Well, then That's on them, but you don't want to find yourself. You don't want to find yourself um Yeah, we oh, yeah, we couldn't see your question the other day You don't want to find yourself going along with someone that you know is clearly going against the bible And if that means that that relationship has to end because of that Well, then god will bring you another relationship you replace with the better But your allegiance is to god Your allegiance is to god All right guys, so we're going to have a q&a later this week. This really wasn't the q&a We're going to have a q&a later this week The devil went down to georgia um We're going to have a q&a and so, um, we will Answer your questions again tomorrow I'm going to be on someone else's channel having a discussion about the end times I think it's about the end. You know, there's several things that we're having discussions about so i'm not sure what the whole thing is about so Um, it's not going to be a it's not a formal debate, which I will never do ever ever ever ever ever But we're having this discussion And so we will not be on tomorrow live at five Will I come on live tomorrow? I haven't decided yet But if you notice something um There is one and I'm going to make an actual official announcement that I'm going to be moving a lot of the Not all but a lot of the content that was hey this pastor or this preacher this person said this And this was wrong. This was false Naming or saying why this person's a false teacher would have you A lot of those videos are moving over to the other channel Okay, by the way, if you haven't subscribed, please, please go and subscribe to that channel This channel is going to be 90 plus percent just teaching teaching teaching teaching I'll do a q&a moses I was taking questions earlier, but i'm but we're gonna leave but i'm doing a q&a later in the week I might do one tomorrow Uh to kind of make up for not being on live tomorrow But this channel will be just teaching teaching teaching Matter of fact, let me put something up on the screen really really quick here Let's go up here to to youtube Now I didn't plan that out. That's just youtube did that and got the guy uh the tgot fell up there Let me let me click on something and go to your channel If you've noticed something guys y'all see this if you notice The sort of videos that that have been going up They've been just stuff that relates to your walk Doctrine things like that Okay, that's kind of uh, what's the name of the channel? What is the name of the channel? Oh The name of the channel is um smart christian's life However, however, no, I don't have a discord. However, that is going to change I'll tell you all more about that and it it's Appropriate that it changes to the name that's going to change to But if you notice though The topics are more now. I I still just did this one over here this one about apostles then versus now I just thought that was cute Here's one apostle getting ready to be Um tortured and killed here's another apostle over here getting off of a private jet Man Being an apostle today is just just drastically different. Of course. We don't agree with that Um, and so in the last several videos, you're gonna you see more of the now I've got them talking about being disqualified to divorce because of divorce whatever um But most of the videos if you go and look lately, they have been Um, just covering different topics even on the lives The lives have been more about Um Doctrine or teachings and so forth. So now are we still fighting against? Bad doctrine and so forth. Sure. We are Sure. We are um Hey, somebody did a video somebody did a video about me. Okay Which is cool. I I need to go back and watch it. Um, see what he said So, um But I'm still gonna we're still we will still call out and name the foolishness. It will just be on the the different channel Okay, so guys, maybe tomorrow Um, definitely friday. We'll have the q&a I started to say in honor of because I think I think I saw someone that that uh, Mike, um Mike Winger's not doing his q&a. So I might say I might call it the Mike Winger's not doing his q&a come over this q&a I wouldn't do that. But anyway Uh What is happening on youtube anyway? Okay Got a lot of cult stuff. I got a lot of football stuff popping up Anyway, so y'all can see what when I'm sitting around I'll just click on something and it's nine times out of 10 It's going to be cult related. It's going to be football related. So Anyway, guys, um That is it. I've got to get ready to see my baby girl out. She is getting ready to Yeah, it is it is. Um Kind of just let me say this. Oh, here is here it is. Here's the uh, thank you, um carol Um, but you're right. It is better. That's the link guys. Please if you haven't subscribed, please And I don't really ask to subscribe I'm going to start asking folks to subscribe to this one But it is better. It is better. As a matter of fact when I do this other content Um, I feel better. Actually, I I enjoy it. I really do And the best part about it is it's what I call, uh, it's got it's got a shelf life. It's or evergreen You talk about You name it, um Music listen to secular music Somebody today wants to hear that but they won't watch this again in in a week In a month in a year. So those sort of topics that are always relevant to a christian's walk That's what this is and to cover, um other topics and so You'll see a whole lot of stuff a lot. So Well, Cory, why do you put out so many videos because it's not hard. It's just I'm sitting here. I'm literally sitting here I'm doing something and I just Press record go over the go over the scripture and then I don't as you can see I don't do a lot of editing is I don't have the sharpest looking edit videos, right? Stuff flying in all over the place. I don't have that. So um That's not what I you know And and maybe I will one day. Who knows maybe I will we started putting in a little bit more text and so forth But that's pretty much it and so it doesn't take a long time if I wanted to cover Okay, let's see k-dub is covering neo So if I wanted to cover that and then put a text up, you know cover text That's relevant to it and I could do that wouldn't take it didn't take very long It it really does But it helps me also to make sure that I stay in my word that I stay steady that I'm answering questions and things like that So That's why I do so.

It's just You all pray for my my baby bailey pray for her Uh, and then y'all pray for yourselves because when she gets back She's out there practicing on the roads driving So y'all pray for the other cars that she might Anyway guys, see you all tomorrow. Be blessed


And I am very happy to be able to talk to you on this very important subject that is immensely useful in our day to day life, that is science and technology communication. Generally science and technology communication is referred to communication of scientific data, scientific concepts, its interpretation to the common man. At the same time science communication has different meanings to different cultures, different socioeconomic societies, different countries and different localities. Like for the western countries science communication is something like making fun, just exploratory effort, something doing for kids, something like that. But science communication for different developing countries like ours has many more meanings. It is something like saving and shaping the lives of the people. In the countries like India, lakhs of people, thousands of people are dying due to lack of petty information, petty diseases. Like from diarrhea lakhs of people are dying in our country, that is curable disease. So only matters that is a simple information that can help save lives of the people. So for science communication is very important for the countries like India for its conducive growth. And we believe that the scientific knowledge as well as the scientific temper if we are able to combine both of them together hold the key for the overall development of the country. For that purpose the National Council for Science and Technology Communication that came into being in 1984. It has been working for two purposes to inculcate the scientific temperament among us the fellow citizens of the country as well as to impart the scientific knowledge to the fellow citizens. So we believe if we are able to synchronize between the scientific temper and the knowledge I think that is very very important for the overall development. Because knowledge is important we can gather knowledge, we can collect knowledge, we can have knowledge, we can create knowledge. But unless we are able to make best use of that knowledge we cannot consider that we are fully developed. For example if we are able to make good highways but it is useless if we are not if we are not aware that how to make best use of these highways. If we don't know how to walk on these highways, how to drive on these highways we will meet the accidents on you. So there comes the role of attitude and I think that is the crux of the subject. The knowledge with attitude, the knowledge with the right kind of attitude that we call the scientific attitude, the analytical attitude. If we are able to take decisions without any bias, without any prejudice, without any pressure, without any greed that means we are having a scientific temperament. But at the same time if we have the right kind of knowledge and we don't have the right kind of attitude I think there is no way of the desired goal. So for this purpose we are using various kinds of mass media because mass media has its deeper reach into the society. Be it great media, electronic media, digital media, folk media where India is very rich, India has a rich tradition in folk media. Like we can use Bihu of Assam for taking the scientific message, taking the message of environment to the common man of the people, common man of the society. We can use Vilu Patu of Tamil Nadu for taking the scientific interpretations to the people for their advantage. We can take advantage of puppetry, puppet shows, street plays and so on. Lot of such heritage, rich heritage is available for our country for communication of science and technology. Even to the nooks and curbs of the country where the traditional media, the available media, the technology cannot reach but our folk media can reach. Apart from that we have interactive media. So all kind of media if we are able to harness them for the purpose of science communication I think that will be very good for, especially for you because you are learning this subject, you are very keen for the subject and I am sure that if you are able to develop right kind of skill, right kind of attitude that success is yours. And lot of opportunities are available nowadays in the area of science and technology communication. As per a survey that we have conducted some years back the science coverage in mass media is something like 3.4 percent that we are trying to enhance up to the level of 10 percent. So how to bridge this gap that is very crucial and we are trying to motivate the media houses, we are trying to motivate the scientific organizations to bridge the gap, scientific organizations can provide the scientific information and the media houses can offer the space and time for science coverage. Then comes the role of a science communicator, then comes the role of the people like you who are a science enthusiast, who have studied science or who has the capacity to understand the scientific jargon to be able to reproduce it in a manner so that it becomes comprehensible. So I think that kind of ability you are going to develop through these courses through these formal and informal education systems and I believe that this science communication is growing in India and India is leading like our like other scientific disciplines India is also leading in science and technology communication and I am happy to say that India has done in the past so many unparallel experiments in the area of science and technology communication, be it science express and exhibition on wheels that is going across the country like science express and the collaborative program with Germany and India has organized Vidyan Jattha that is the unique concept in the world. Vidyan Jattha is a kind of conglomerate that brings together all kind of media for focusing on a particular issue like hygiene, health, sanitation, nutrition, whatever it may be, the high end science as well as the grass root level science. So all kind of scientific concepts, all kind of scientific messages can be carried to the common man and thereby we can empower our common man fellow students to come into the main stream of the development of the country. I wish you all the best on this very occasion. Let us look forward that the future of science communication is very bright and you will be making it more brighter. Thank you.
