Laramie, starring Raymond Burr as Captain Lee Quince, specially transcribed tales of the dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier, the saga of fighting men who rode the rim of empire, and the dramatic story of Lee Quince, Captain of Cavalry. You alive, Harrison? No, Sir Heed. Moving back with the others? The name of heaven, Captain. How could he be alive? Look at him. Moving back, Harrison. Lieutenant Cybridge is directing the grave detail. Now give him a hand. We're gonna bury him all? It's the least we can do. I can't do it, Captain Quince. I can't. I'm all hot, cold, and my belly. I just can't look at any more of this. You get a firm grip on that belly of yours, Harrison. This kind of cleanup's gotta be done. Now don't look. Don't think. Just do your work. Yes, sir. Yes, I'll do that. It was old ladies. I figured there was too old for travel, anyway. See those graves are cairned. Lieutenant's seeing to that, Captain. All I gotta do is dig them. Count 12 wagons burning. Them engines don't leave nothing to chance. Oh, not much.  For good measure, they set fire to them. Better get back to work, hook.  Sometimes, hook. Sometimes. Captain, uh... Yeah? Maybe you ought to speak to the lieutenant. How's that? He's fair carried away with all his burying stuff. I declare he'll be laying the dead stock to rest next, so as he can speak words over them. That all, hook? I bet you ought to take a look, Captain. I think it's real touching. Thinkin' it's not any party, you hook, any more than feelin' is. I don't want to see that spade of yours stop the next two hours. Yes, sir. This one's still alive. Are you conscious? I just come on him. I heard him. Uh, mister? Uh, Sue... Hundreds, hundreds of Sue. Must've read it from the south, Hazen. If it was, Sue. I gave the major that report. They've been buildin' up to somethin' for months now. Mister! How many people in your train, mister? We counted twelve wagons. Oh, yeah. Fifty-two. Fifty-two. And they took... Only fifty bodies, Captain. Lieutenant Cybers and I just took count. You sure, Hazen? Yes, sir. Forty-nine dead in this one. Beasley. It took the Beasley... Beasley girls. It took... Make that fifty dead, Hazen. Yeah. We're goin' after him. With twenty men? We'll be another couple of hours here, and it'll still take us three more to get back to the fort. Them girls, that's... Well, dying's easier, Captain. You tellin' me somethin' I don't know, Hazen? Yeah, I'll go after him when I stand a chance of gettin' him. Meantime, you pick up the trail. Yes, sir. I oughta come on a suit camp before night. If I do, I'll make it back to the fort by daylight. I'm goin' after him at setup, whether you're back or not. Suppose I had the company with you, then what? We'd have finished our burying a little earlier, Major. That's all? That's all. Captain, I have to make a report to Washington. I'd like to make it look as if the Army meant somethin' out here. So far, I can tell him that a patrol of twenty men arrived in time to bury the members of an entire wagon train. Would it make your report read any better if you told him a whole company arrived in time to bury him, Major? I'm not interested in your impertinence, Captain. I'm not interested in your report, sir. All right, all right. I know you don't think much of paperwork, Lee. Reports to Washington, all of this. But the point is, it all has to be done whether you like it or not. My point is we'd have been just as late with 80 men as we were with 20. You'd still have to report 50 dead and two missing. I don't like to think about those young women. Somebody better think about them. You've seen what... you know the savagery they're bound to endure. How soon can you leave, Captain? At dawn, whether Hazen's back or not. You sent him on ahead? He's been scouting the suit territory for the last few months. If they've gone back south, we'll find him. I suppose you'll want the company this time? I'd want more than one company if I intended to go after him. There's only one company available, Captain. Major... I'd like to bargain with them. Bargain? After a massacre like this? Yes, sir. If we don't have the men to fight it out with them. What kind of bargain? Big elk. Big elk for the young women. I don't know. He wasn't easily captured, Quince. I know. I brought him in. He's not doing us much good lying around the stockade. I suppose the Sioux consider him valuable enough to trade for him. He's a chief. What if Hazen isn't back by morning? If you expect to find those young women alive, you can't wait much longer. We may pick Hazen up on the trail, but Big elk can lead us to the camp. Yeah, but will he? To get out of the stockade? Yeah, he'll lead us. You'll understand he's not free till he does. You better talk to him, Quince. Report back to me tonight. I'd like to leave at sun-up, sir. If we're satisfied that Big elk's a best chance, you'll pass the head of your column through the main gates half an hour before Reveley tomorrow morning. Right, sir. Kill me, dog. Leave it to me. Look, he's nothing to you. I just give him a drink. He asked for one to me.  You men are be better off than your bunks. Try to kill me. I will. I get the chance. Something on your mind? Hook? He's just tormenting him, Captain. Big elk asked for a drink. Hook here gave him some bills war. But it wouldn't have killed him. He just made him good and sick like he makes me. You're to leave him alone, Hook. Hey, let them white women alone, Captain. Not one of them engines is leaving them be.  Now, get back to your quarters, all of you. We're going after the women before Reveley. That too ain't sounded yet, Captain. What did you say, trooper? Nothing, sir. Come on. Here you are. Here, you can drink this, big elk. White man, no friend. Try to kill me.  I brought you here instead. Now go on, drink it. It's for my own canteen. Good. Good water. Good water. Put out fire and belly.  Big elk, no sea people many moons. A brother white man only. White man, no brother big elk. A hunting still good along Lodgepole. Good grass, good water. Why would they move camp? Not now. If we let you go, big elk, you could find your people. Big elk, big coup for white man. White man, no let big elk go. Well, if you couldn't find your way back, no sense talking to you. You don't know where your people are. Why you let big elk go? A fair trade. You lead us to the Sioux camp. We'll trade you to your tribe for the white women they have. No trade. Your people don't think much of you, do they? Big elk hold high honor in tribe. Little Sioux proud warrior, hunter, leader big elk. Then why won't they trade? White man, no trade big elk for white woman. That's just where you're wrong. White men go pretty high on their women, folk. Captain, you play trick? No trick. You have my word. No trick. Then big elk give word. We'll lead to Sioux camp. There's a lot of story in that, Captain, of yours, Harrison. You still think he knows all there is that's right? Captain Quintz knows what he's about. You see he does. And he knows that you're in it, though, don't he? Him plain eating out of that engine's hand. You're just trying to rile me, Hook. And I ain't giving you the satisfaction. Look at him, Harrison. The engine pokes his head to the right. Same with the left.  He'd have us climb in the air. You'd best keep your face shut, Hook. I swear you keep me no telling what I'll do. You'll do like you're told. No more. That Captain will tell you do anything at all. You bust yourself doing it.  I ain't snapping at your bait no more. You can talk all you like. I just ain't listening. I'm just riding along here, and I don't even know no dumb trooper named Hook. Ain't just me talking, Pootlecker. They don't sit well with a single white man riding in this column being let around by no engine. You giving any thought to them white women, Harrison? You ever seen one once a bunch of engines got through with her? Well, we're doing a decent thing, ain't we? We're going after them. No, we ain't. We're just out riding around, Harrison. Follow the engine wherever he means to take us. Like his naughties leading us into an ambush right this minute. I ain't listening to you again, Hook. Eat here in a word you see. I'll tell you one thing, Pootlecker. That's a dead engine up there. He don't know it yet, but he's just as dead as he can be. There, Creek. There's still daylight enough to see us there. Still Bivouac there for the night. I know, Cybert. I think it's Hazen. The word on the Sioux Camp. I'm meaning to make a camp here, are you, Captain? No, we're heading to Bear Creek for the night. That's more like it. There's water there, grass, natural camp. You just a day out of Fort Laramie? Left the post just at Sunup. Made good time. Well, Big Elk's picking the trail. Good job. We're right on the line of the Sioux Camp. We'll leave Bear Creek at Sunup. You'll make it the large full creek by mid-morning. Fair enough. You got reinforcements coming? I'm riding in under a white flag. I planned to trade Big Elk for the white women. Oh, it might work. I got in awful close. Don't even think they got scouts out. East-wise, I didn't see any. Any sign of the women? Not likely there would be. No, Captain, there's still we're looking awful peaceful. For your sakes, I hope there are. You sent for me, sir? Yeah, sit down, Mr. Sabitz. Thank you, sir. What's the talk among the men? You know the men, Captain, just camp talk. Just camp talk? That's all, sir. Well, that's good. I had an idea maybe feeling was running a little high against Big Elk. Well, it is. You know, men feeling the way they do about the Sioux capturing the white women, they're taking on with him a little. What do you mean? Well, Josh and him making threats, little things. Well, for example, he's half-starving, I guess, and thirsty, of course. So? Well, they keep putting food and water just out of his reach. And you stood there and let it happen, Mr. Sabitz? Well, sir. Just camp talk, Mr. Sabitz. It's more my fault, Captain. You can't blame the men. I can blame the men, and I can blame you. He's not free! Pick it! He's just loose! White man, they tried to kill me.  Now, listen to me! I won't let anyone harm you. Your word no mean much. White man, no honor. What do you know about honor? Listen to me. And understand me. I don't know what's behind all this, but for your sakes, I'm gonna put it down to your feeling for the captured white women. All right, all right, quiet! We'll lay it to that for now. But I'm not forgetting what happened here. Now, use your heads. Big Elk's our best chance to get those women out of the suit camp safely, maybe our only chance. I gave him my word, there'd be no tricks. The stockade's waiting for the next man who abuses him. Any questions? Harrison? Yes, sir? See that there's water and warm food for Big Elk. Where were you, sir? Now, any of you get any ideas, I'll be waiting for you. That's all. Dismissed. All right, Big Elk. Captain Quince. I'm sorry, sir, I should've stopped all that. Any man could've stopped it, Mr. Cybert. But being an officer and all, I should have. The army saw fit to make you an officer, Mr. Cybert. Being a man's entirely up to you. I just... That's all, Mr. Cybert. Camp of my people in valley below. Big Elk, keep word. Big Elk, if I had a home like that, I'd never leave it. Red men first here. Then white men come with gun. Yeah, yeah, I know. I'll take the flag, Mr. Cybert. You have your orders? Yes, sir. We'll ride in under your cover. There's to be no firing unless there's trouble.  Any questions? No, sir. Then pass the word. Big Elk and I are riding in. Good luck, Captain. You leave, Big Elk. No sign of your scouts yet. My people expect no trouble. There'll be no trouble. Big Elk turned back on white men. Not safe. No trust. I've kept my word, Big Elk. The rest is up to your chiefs. No. Big Elk knows fear. No, you're safe with me. No. Big Elk, no trust. He's straight there.   It was look shot him, sir, before anyone could stop it. He'll rot in the stockade for this. Stand the horse! Lieutenant Cybert, we'll be coming back immediately. I know how you feel, Captain. But it's done. The man will be dealt with fully. Major, it was the coldest kind of murder.  Especially you. Right now I'm thinking about those white women. I don't think there's a chance they're alive now. The Sioux will take this out on somebody. And they're handiest. We can't think about that. We're going after those women this time with every man in our command. With at least a thousand Sioux at Lodgepole Creek? We'll do our best, Captain. Gorse had been with me. I'd have seen this since. Sergeant Gorse was accompanying the first wagon train through. I know that. It's my own stupidity. Stupidity? Surely you're not blaming yourself. For taking hook on that patrol, you bet I am. I'm long enough in the army to spot a troublemaker. You're not thinking straightly. I count on your judgment because it's cool and straight. You're no good to me in this turn of mine. Major, my guts are crawling now. What do you want? I want an officer with head enough to command Company B to engage the Sioux. All right, sir. You got one. I'm all right. Captain Matheson moved into the post yesterday with Sea Company. With Mead's infantry and Howard's, we should give you the cover you need. I'm not used to this much support, Major. I'd get lost in that crowd. Your job is to get those women and get out. After your initial charge, the main fighting's up to Sea Company and the infantry. Yes, sir. Get the women, bring them here. And you'll stand by as reinforcements for Matheson and Mead. Right. Yes. Major, come in. Captain. Azen. We're going to need your help, Azen. Well, there's a chance you can surprise them. They're on the move. Which way? North and to the west. Where's your map? Right here. This was their main camp at Lodgepole. Uh-huh. Now, they moved along the valley where you were, Captain. Along the stream and then up to Horse Crick there. Then branched up to Bear Crick near Iron Mountain right there. We bivouacked there. You were a little to the east, but no matter. They moved across to Chugwater along here, see? And followed along the Laramie Range there. The whole Lodgepole camp on the move? All of them. But this is where I think you can get them. If it's still the Beasley girls you're after. They're our first objective. All right. The warriors, the main force of the tribe, they're well up front, moving ahead. They're not expecting any trouble from the rear. And so that's where they got their squaws and old folks and young ones. Yeah, likely the Beasley women are back there with them. It's a near cinch. Now in your judgment. The natural camp spots about there on the Laramie River. Moving slow like they got along that range, they should make camp there tonight. If it was me, I wouldn't wait for Sunup to move in. He's right, Major. Can you have Bee Company ready to move out by dusk? I can. Pass the word, Captain. Report back in half an hour. Matheson and me will be here. We'll lay out a full plan. Right, sir. Mr. Savers. Right here, Captain. Men filed out in position. Yes, sir. As ordered. Harrison, move up. Yes, sir. Harrison, you'll flank me on the charge.  I sure do, sir. Good. Proud to. Company! Company! At the truck! Captain Quincy. It's them women. Them Beasley girls. They can't be over five, six years old. Either one of them. Come on, Harrison. Let's get these women out of here. Company Tension! Dismiss!

Welcome to Spotlight. I'm Bruce Gulland. And I'm Liz Wade. Spotlight uses a special English method of broadcasting. It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live. Imagine a building full of graffiti. Pictures and words are painted all over the building. This graffiti is crude. It says hateful things about black and brown people. Next to this are symbols from Nazi Germany, swastikas. Above this someone has written, My Hitler. This graffiti is meant to be offensive. It is meant to spread hate. Then a man appears. He is carrying dozens of cans of colorful spray paint. He stares at the wall for a moment. Then he begins to paint. Over the swastika he paints two large purple cupcakes.  My Hitler turns into my muffins. Next to the muffins he paints a small signature. It says Cibo. Cibo is an artist from Italy. His name means food in Italian. Cibo paints murals of food over fascist graffiti. He tries to make his city more beautiful. But his real goal is to fight hate with art. Today's spotlight is on Cibo. Cibo's real name is Pierre Paolo Spinazzi. He lives in Verona, a city in northern Italy. Cibo loves his city. But he also believes the city has a problem. It tolerates hateful people, especially neo-fascists. Fascism is a kind of extremist way of thinking that appeared in Europe during World War I. It celebrates authoritarians and nationalists.  For many years Italy was too. Neofascism is a renewal of these beliefs. Neofascists do not like people coming to Italy from other countries. They are often hateful to people who are not like them. They will not tolerate diversity or different ways of thinking. And they will often use violence to enforce their beliefs. Neofascism is a growing concern in Italy. Political parties like Forza Nuova express fascist viewpoints. Some groups have committed violent attacks against immigrants and people groups. And incidents like this are increasing. Cibo has experienced this violence. He told Italics Magazine in 2019 I have seen the marks of neo-fascist violence on my friends. Eleven years ago, a group of neo-fascists killed a fellow university student. After that day, I decided that that was enough. Although it was not much, I would have, should have, done something about it. Soon after his friend's death in 2008, Cibo saw a wall full of neo-fascist graffiti. It made him angry. His friend had just died. And here were signs from the people who killed him. So, Cibo did what he knew how to do. He went and got his paints. And he covered the graffiti with an image of big Italian sausages. The next day, Cibo went back to the same wall. Someone had painted more graffiti over the sausages. But this did not discourage Cibo. Instead of giving up, Cibo painted sauce on the sausage. The sauce covered up the graffiti. And it made his art more detailed. He did this every time someone defaced or ruined his work. The mural became bigger and more interesting. Soon there was an entire meal beautifully painted on the wall. After some time, the neo-fascists gave up. Cibo's mural stayed. This became a pattern for Cibo. He would find hateful graffiti somewhere in Verona. Then he would cover it with a painting of food. When someone ruined his painting, Cibo would just change it. Neo-fascists actually helped him make more interesting art. He told Italics, These fascists are dangerous as a group.  I can usually predict what they will do. I use them to create work that gallery artists cannot even imagine. Without their hate, I would never have become so famous. Cibo has made it his goal to cover up all hateful graffiti in Verona. And today, he has been doing it for more than 10 years. Not everyone likes his work. He has received death threats from neo-fascist groups. And there are other artists who do not respect his work. But he also has over 350,000 followers on social media. These followers help him locate hateful graffiti. And he has inspired many people to do what he does. But for Cibo, the goal is not to attack neo-fascists. Instead, his art is a message to the people of Verona and Italy. He told Italics, I do not want to challenge just those fascists who spread graffiti. They are fools. And they will get tired of what they do. Instead, I want to overthrow the growing acceptance of hate.  They try to forget about hanging statues of people of color at the stadium.  Cibo paints food because it helps send a message of unity. Almost everywhere in the world, food is something that brings people together. When people get together to eat, they get to know each other more. It is easy to dislike someone who you do not know. But when you actually meet them, it is harder to hate. Food is also international. Every culture has their unique foods. But everywhere, food is a comfort and a joy. Instead of hate, Cibo tries to spread this comfort. He also points out that even unique national foods are made of ingredients. Each of these ingredients come from somewhere different. For example, the Caprese salad is a very Italian dish. It is made from mozzarella, basil, and tomatoes. Cibo often paints this salad. He talked to Quartz Magazine about one mural. He said that the Caprese is a message. Caprese is a message that food is open to the world. The basil comes from India, the oil is from Syria, the mozzarella is Italian, and the tomatoes come from Colombia. Cibo believes that his country is like a Caprese. Its people come from many different places. But this does not make them less Italian. Instead, what makes Italy Italy is all of its people, no matter where they are from. The neo-fascists believe that Italy should only behave like one dish. But Cibo presents a varied cuisine. It is full of spice and flavour. And it is made of ingredients that come from all over the world. Do you ever see hateful graffiti? How do you deal with it? What would you do if you could?

I want to review the anatomy of the thoracic cavity, and I want you to listen to this next piece, keeping in mind our anatomy that we've already looked at. I'm going to simplify this picture like ridiculously. I'm going to simplify it down to just a mouth, a trachea, and a lung inside the thoracic cavity, and I'm going to draw the whole thing out for you because I think that if we have a simplified version, I think it will help significantly. So let's start with a trachea that is open. We know that the trachea bifurcates, but let's just go no bifurcation. Let's just simplify this thing down. We know that it switches into bronchi, and it bifurcates into bronchioles. I'm just showing you my bronchioles just by showing you this red color, and then we're going to culminate in an alveoli. I mean, an alveolus. Does this work for you? Totally diagrammatic. Now, I'm going to throw in the thoracic cavity. This is, I don't know, look at this. The trachea is out here. It's open. Do you agree to the atmosphere? Here's the atmosphere. That says atmosphere. Of course it does. And it's open, which means the atmosphere can actually go inside your trachea. That's a wild thought, but that's exactly what's happening. The atmosphere can go all the way into an alveolus. And then the atmosphere, after we do some exchanging of gases, can go back out again. You've got a context. So I don't know, this blue line right here, that's probably my clavicles, right? And then the rest of my box is what, my ribs. This is all what defines the thoracic cavity. And this is important. At the base of the thoracic cavity, separating the thoracic cavity from the abdominal pelvic cavity is a structure made out of skeletal muscle. And this thing is the diaphragm. This is very important. It actually is shaped like this. This is the diaphragm. It is skeletal muscle. When it contracts, it does this kind of movement. Can you see how I'm shortening my fingers? But the shape of it means that when the diaphragm contracts, we get some interesting stuff happening here in the thoracic cavity. Now, the thoracic cavity, remember that it actually contains two plural cavities. And so really what I have drawn here is a single lung sitting inside a single plural cavity.  Keeping in mind, because you are brilliant, that my plural cavity is really out of proportion here. My plural cavity is defined by two cirrus membranes, two layers. And this one is called the visceral pleura. And the visceral pleura is a cirrus membrane that covers the lung tissue itself. And it's really important. This is not something that I'm just randomly like, dude, this is cool. No, this is the visceral pleura. This is just a membrane. It's responsible for producing cirrus fluid to reduce friction. We also have cirrus membranes are double layered. So there's also a pleura. This is the parietal pleura. The parietal pleura lines the cavity. It actually is going to line the pleural cavity. And this right here is the parietal pleura. Parietal pleura. So really, you probably would say, ugh, it's a little bit tricky because the heart is in here. There's a lot of anatomy that we're leaving out here. This whole, this box actually probably represents the pleural cavity. And this, there's a space that I've drawn here that looks gigantic, but it actually isn't. This is the intraplural space. And the visceral pleura and the parietal pleura produce pleural fluid. It's a cirrus fluid. And this is a crazy thing. All told, you have like 25 milliliters. Here's one milliliter. So you can imagine 25 of those. It's not very much fluid in there. This space is actually super, super small. They consider it a potential space. And we'll see the importance, like, the function of this space and this fluid. I'm showing it to you like this so that you have an appreciation of the big, we can blow it up so we can see the mechanics that are involved in breathing. This space is really important to ventilation. I think that that is what we need. The next thing that we're going to talk about are some gas laws that are going to, what, regulate, provide rules for ventilation. Gases have to follow a couple of laws. There's actually three of them that we're going to look at. And once we've got our anatomy, we're going to look at the rules we have to follow with the gas laws, and then we're going to put those pieces together and we're going to end up with some mechanisms for how we breathe.


My question was, is there a way to embrace the life of the Holy Spirit, the supernatural without becoming weird? And I promise you today is going to be a weird free zone. Hopefully we'll see some wonderful stuff go on, but I promise you I'm not going to try to make it weird. It doesn't have to be. It doesn't have to be. We can do a lot in our own strength, but only the Holy Spirit can transform us and use us as agents of transformation. That is why Jesus sent the early saints to the upper room to wait until they were endued with power. Acts 1-8. Endued means to bestow upon, to clothe. It means to put on. The Greek word for dunamis is a root word for dynamite or dynamic. And the night I was filled with the Spirit and I asked God to give me a prayer language. I didn't receive tongues. I received tongue. I got one word. And it was the word dunamis. And I didn't know what that meant. And what I thought was just, I heard this word I'd never heard before and I said it. And this this studious looking guy came over who turned out to be a college professor in Bible. And he said, Sunday, do you understand Greek? And I said, no, I'm struggling with English right now. He said, well, the words you've been saying for the last 20 minutes is dunamis. He went on to say it's the word for power. And then he prophesied over me that I would be a pastor and that I would prophesy to nations. And that word came over me again and again for the next few years until I finally caved in and submitted to God and put trying to go my own way. But that dunamis power is not just potential power. It's power in motion. It means power to work to get things done. It's about a power that actually moves things, moves people, moves cities, moves churches. Here's the deal. I believe the world is waiting to see a naturally supernatural church. And I believe it's possible for disciples of Jesus to embrace the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit without getting goofy. All right. Wouldn't that be something that we just were normal enough to be accepted at Walmart and say revival breakout at Walmart and not just in our church on a Sunday morning? Well, if you've got your Bibles turned to Acts 11, the early church continued the ministry of Jesus. And that's what the book of Acts is all about. Dr. Luke told the story what happened after Jesus, what happened when Jesus was here, but he was telling the story of what was happening with the disciples after he departed and went to heaven. Dr. Luke wrote in the book of Acts, he wrote to his friend Theophilus. Theophilus name means lover of God. So I guess the book of Acts was written to lovers of God. Anybody in here come under that category, written to lovers of God, written to us. The theme of Acts is that which Jesus continued to do by his spirit through his disciples. The heart of being naturally supernatural is to continue to do what Jesus did, being endued with power by the Holy Spirit. Let's look at verse one. I'm going to read through verse 11. Now the Jesus movement was about three things basically, is about being witnesses. I'd never witnessed anybody in my life until I was filled with the Spirit. And the night I got filled with the Spirit, I started telling my friends about Jesus. It just started bubbling out of me. So the Jesus movement was about being witnesses, is about getting baptized in the Holy Spirit. The big question was, I got it last night. Did you get it? I heard even Mary got it. Oh my God, everybody's getting it. And we thought that the Holy Spirit wasn't it, was an experience. And that would have been good enough. But when we learned that he really was third part of the Godhead, the Comforter, the one that comes alongside, the one that points us to Jesus, the one that empowers us to do those things that Jesus did, it changed everything. So I quit praying just to the Father, just to Jesus. Sometimes I just talk to the Holy Spirit and praise God. Sometimes the Holy Spirit talks to me. So the Jesus move is about being witnesses, being baptized in the Holy Spirit, and proclaiming the return of Jesus. We told everybody, Jesus is coming again. Jesus is coming again. We weren't worried about when he might come. We were just filled with the hope that he would come again. I remember one time in one of our meetings, we met every morning at 12.30 on the college campus, and there's a time change. And so a friend of mine went into the meeting and there's nobody there. He fell down on his knees and said, oh Jesus, you came and took everybody and you didn't take me. And he was crying when all the rest of us start trickling in, and he just, he forgot to change his clock as some college kids do. Let's read this starting with verse one. In my former book Theophilus, Lover of God, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach. Now there's an order there, do and to teach, until the day he was taken up to heaven after giving instructions to the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. After his suffering, when he had suffered and died on the cross, he showed and resurrected. He showed himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of 40 days and spoke about the kingdom of God. On one occasion while he was eating with them, he gave them this command, do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days, you'll be baptized with the Holy Spirit. That was the promise, the promise of the Holy Spirit. So when they met together, they asked him, Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel? He said to them, it is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority, but you will receive power, dunamis, when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth, even Texas. After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes and the cloud hit him from their sight. They were looking intently up into the skies. He was going when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. Men of Galilee, they said, why do you stand here looking at the sky? This same Jesus who has been taken from you will into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven. Now, when we started reading the book of Acts together, we just got lit up. We thought, that's exactly what's happening to us. That's what we're doing. The Holy Spirit is filling us and doing this with power, and we're sharing the gospel everywhere we go. We're talking about Jesus coming again, and we're seeing the stuff, we're seeing signs and wonders and miracles, and it just seems normal.  And I've been in church all my life, and I've not seen these kind of things that was going on. This seemed more real than anything I'd ever seen. Now, doing and teaching. We do a lot of teaching. We form a lot of committees to plan the doing, but often we don't get around the doing. We just do the teaching. Let me tell you what, teaching is a lot easier if they've seen you do it. If you do the stuff, then the teaching comes alive. And I'm telling you, people are hungry for the stuff. They're tired of our words. They're tired of our platitudes. They're tired of our cliches. They just want to see their mom who's dying get healed. That's what they're wanting to see. And it is a ripe time for another move, the Spirit to come. Pentecostal or Charismatic folks I've noticed through the years are all about worship and they're about baptism in the Spirit. But if you want to go to a Pentecostal or Charismatic Church, you're going to hear about baptism in the Spirit. And that's what they bring to the body of Christ, and I so appreciate them for it. Evangelical or Word folks tend to focus on the Bible and being witnesses to the ends of the earth. I love my Baptist friends. They love the Bible. They'll witness to anything that moves. They're like witnessing tanks. But I don't think they do as well without each other. Evangelical or Word folks, they're strong. They win people to the Lord. They love the Bible. Charismatic Pentecostal folks will worship until the cows come home. They'll get in the presence of God. They'll be transformed. They'll receive the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit. And then often that's it. They'll just echo around the walls inside the church and enjoy God's presence. Well, I think God is combining. The Word and the Spirit was meant to walk together. Jesus said they began to do and to teach, began to do the stuff. So the Charismatics and the Pentecostals need the Baptist. The Baptist evangelicals need the Charismatic and the Pentecostals. Maybe we just need to take those labels off and just be believers. Just be followers of the way. Here's the focus. Verse 3 shows that after his resurrection, Jesus appeared to them over a 40-day period, and he spoke about one thing. He didn't talk about the gifts of the Spirit. He didn't talk about the Torah or the word they had at the time. He talked about the kingdom of God. And that is the focus of being naturally supernatural. It's not about events or how many people come or how many records you sell or how many books you sell. It's about the kingdom of God. And when you tap into that, God can start using you in more powerful ways than you ever imagined that you could be used. Now, Jesus had one message in ministry. It was the Good News of the Kingdom. Mark 1, 14 and 15 says this, after John was put in prison, Jesus went to Galilee proclaiming the Good News of God. He said, the time has come. The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the Good News. Now we have messages like, we hope you have a great weekend experience. And I want a good weekend experience. I want to experience the presence of God. I want to make it easy for my neighbors and my unsaved friends to come to church. But it's more than that. The kingdom of God is near. There's a move of the Spirit that's breaking out all over the world right now. And we want to be a part of it. Since January, I prayed with, I think, 70 people to give their hearts to Jesus just since January. And I've not had a bunch of hype. I just asked people, wouldn't you like to be saved? Wouldn't you like to give your heart to Jesus? And people are saying yes. But no one's ever told me what to do. Let me tell you, the opportunity is unbelievable right now. We just need to meet. We just need to meet it with our doing and just quit teaching about it, but do it. Repent, believe the Good News. The Word and the Spirit working together. Matthew 9, 35 through 38 says, Jesus went through all the towns and villages teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the kingdom. Look at this. And healing every disease and sickness. Word and the Spirit together. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. The kingdom of God is the recurring theme of Jesus' message and ministry. It needs to be ours as well. I don't need 12 more steps. I need the power of the Holy Spirit. Now I've got friends whose lives have been saved in some of the 12 step ministry, and I'm not putting that down, but I'm telling you what the church needs is the power of the Holy Spirit moving through believers. Two consistent expressions of Jesus' ministry, proclamation, and demonstration. He proclaimed, repent, the kingdom of God is near. I've tried to change my prayers from, oh God, please do this. I go and I pray over cities. I pray over churches. I pray over neighborhoods. I pray over families. And I start proclaiming what I know God wants for them. I'll start proclaiming, repent the kingdom of God is near. God has a destiny for you.  He doesn't want you hiding and cowering in your house.  Now, I'm not necessarily an evangelist. I mean, this is what evangelists always tell you, but when you get filled with the Holy Spirit and you start to experience a move of God, you get evangelistic. Your heart starts burning to see your friends and family members come into Jesus and you quit worrying about that they might get mad at you if you say something. Amen. Demonstration acts of mercy, healing, deliverance, multiplying food, raising people from the dead, power and authority over sin, sickness and death, doing the stuff. Jesus was doing the stuff before John Wimber coined the phrase and he was saying, you do this stuff too. And he said, greater stuff will you do than I've done. And I thought about that. How can you do something greater than Jesus did? Well, I led somebody to the Lord in Australia a few weeks ago from my office on Zoom. I don't think Jesus ever did that. I mean, he could have. But I thought, this is a greater thing. I got to lead someone to the Lord in Australia from Arkansas on Zoom. How cool is that? Now, many wonder why we don't see the stuff today, the healing, the miracles, the signs of wonders. Could it be that we've gotten away from the main aspect of Jesus' ministry? It's about the kingdom. It's not about me and my kingdom. It's proclamation with demonstration. Is it possible that we rely on human effort and human wisdom to fulfill a commission that could never be accomplished in our human strength? What Jesus asked you to do, he's tricky. You can never do it by yourself.  He wants you to depend on him. He sent the Holy Spirit to come alongside you to empower you to do those great and wonderful things that you'll never be able to do. I don't care how charismatic you are.  You don't have the stuff without the stuff. You don't have it within your human self. The Holy Spirit has everything you need and God will provide according to his riches and glory all that you need to fulfill your calling and we all have a calling. Is it possible that we rely on human effort and human wisdom more than we do on the Holy Spirit? Is our confidence in the Lord or is it in ourselves? People say all the time. Now, brother so-and-so, he witnesses to everybody and I'm just not that. I'm just not an evangelist and I just can't tell people about Jesus. That's just not my gifting. It's not my grace. Well, the Great Commission was to everyone. It wasn't just to the gifted evangelist. It was to everyone and he said, I will be with you. I will walk with you if you'll just do it. If you'll just tell others about me and I'm finding some ways that it's a lot, it goes a lot easier if you show people the gospel and don't just tell them the gospel. It's coming home. The whole COVID thing happened and my travel was shut down and I was coming home one day going, you know, Lord, my call is now out there. What do I do? I just can't shut down in my house and I had a picture of this little three by five card and I saw my name and address and phone number on it. I said, Lord, what are you showing me? He said, write all this down just like that and take it to your neighbors and just tell them that you're there if they need you. So I'm ashamed to admit of my four neighbors, I only knew one of them a little bit. I traveled all the time. I went around and said, hi, I'm your neighbor. You may not even know my name, but it really is Wayne Drain and this is my address and this is my phone number. I know that we're really concerned about COVID right now and you may be scared. You may need someone to go and get some food for you, whatever. Just let me know. Well, I had responses like this. Who does this? Who does this?  And so she starts talking to me. We talk about the Lord and we've had subsequent talks. Another guy who was, I think probably a college professor, who was probably an atheist. My wife felt when we went over to him to take a puzzle for some reason and she gave a puzzle to his wife who loved to do puzzles. Then they came back and they brought us some cookies that she had made and we took them a pie and now we're praying for each other all these things are happening and I just saw, naturally supernatural isn't always in front of thousands of people. Sometimes it's in your office writing on a three by five card your address and just saying, if you need me, I'm here. There's all kinds of ways that we can be used, that we haven't even thought about, that the Lord will help you. Well, let me give you an overview of the kingdom of God message that we proclaim. This is the Wayne Drain version. I haven't copyrighted it so you feel free to use it. Number one, we have a king who created everything. He gave creation to Adam and Eve to oversee and attend. They blew it by sending and gave up the authority, their authority to the devil. Satan wants to keep it, but our king has a recovery plan. Did a whole lot of things in the Old Testament getting ready for it, but in the New Testament, God sent his own son, the second Adam, on behalf of the king who brought with him the kingdom of God. Now the kingdom of God is not a place necessarily. It's wherever his rule and reign is. The kingdom of God is wherever you find his rule and reign. In the first place, you want to find it is in your own heart. Is the kingdom of God really in your heart? Are you willing to do what God wants you to do? It's his rule and reign in your heart. On the cross, Jesus ripped the authority and the power of Satan away from him, disarming him and delivering what would be a fatal blow. Jesus' death and resurrection took the keys of the kingdom right back into God's hands, and then salvation and deliverance from the devil became a reality. And God started a whole new tribe of people on planet earth. They're called believers, disciples of Jesus, Christians, followers of the way, lovers of God. And if you know Jesus, you're part of that tribe if you want to be. I'll tell you right now, you'll never be happy if you're passive. You need to do stuff. As subjects of the king, we work alongside the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Many think it's the Father, Son, and the Holy Bible, and I love the Bible. But the Trinity is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we look for every opportunity to rob the enemy of his prizes. That's people held captive by his lies and his deception. That's why we proclaim and demonstrate. That's why we need to show and tell the kingdom has come and chains are broken. So we prophesy, we preach, we do the stuff wherever we go, wherever we are. That's what we do. I was trapped in a I was missing a conference in Nashville not long ago because of a bad connection. I'm sitting there frustrated. Then I thought, well, I wonder if God has me here for a reason. I looked over and there was a gal over there crying. I'm sensitive. A guy talking to a galley doesn't know, so I always kind of do this. I said, ma'am, I'm a believer. I said, I'm not trying to flirt with you. I'm a married man and all that. But I feel like a breakthrough is coming in the next few minutes. She starts crying and she had just gotten engaged and she was going to South Africa, her, the guy she was engaged to was going to meet her in South Africa, meet the parents for the first time.  I said, do you want to pray? And we prayed and she had all but given up hope. She was going to have to stay there all night and sleep there. And I said, let's, we prayed and then we heard an announcement. The flight is opening up. She runs down to the plane and she waves at me. Now that could have been, that could have been just something that would have happened anyway, but I don't think so. I don't think so. I think God wanted that little girl to get home and she had said, oh God, please help me. Opportunities are around us all the time if we will just look all the time. The kingdom has come, the chains are broken, but the final consummation of God's kingdom is still yet to come. So we live in the time between the times, the now, but the not yet between the first coming of Jesus and the second coming of Jesus. It's a unique season. The devil is defeated, but still powerful, bound, but not yet condemned to hell, active on earth, but limited in influence. Wimber taught that our job description as ambassadors of the kingdom of God was very specific, very biblical. He said, as subjects of the king, our job is to simply listen and obey. I remember I saw him in Little Rock and sometimes in his meetings demons would start crying out of people. So a lot of my friends I took hadn't experienced that before. So there's these people in the back in this lady just starts manifesting these demons. John's up there preaching and he said, he said, don't worry about that. That's just demons. My team will go back there and take care of that. You just let's keep talking here. And he was so cool and laid back his team went back there, prayed for her. She was delivered, set free, normal again. And I love it.  Roll over, went back to sleep. I believe we can live that way, but it's going to take some investment in the kingdom. It's going to take you trusting the Holy Spirit to do what he wants to do through you. Amen. A couple more things real quick. John said something that changed my trajectory of ministry. He said, the ministry of Jesus is transferable. That idea rocked my world. It means that the professionals are not the only ones who get to do the stuff. God's people are a kingdom of priests where everyone has access to the Father. Everyone has a pulpit. Everyone gets to play. Everyone gets to do the stuff. And you're thinking even me and I'm saying yes, even you. The reality is this, Jesus kingdom ministry of words and works are transferable to every born again disciple of Jesus. And that includes all of you. There's only one ministry that can transform the lives of millions. And Jesus kingdom ministry. Now get this part expressed through us and I'll add in naturally supernatural ways. Church scared me when I was little. I thought I was going to get yelled at and get called out of all my sins and I just wanted to get out of there as quick as I could. But one night when I saw a member of my family healed, I thought maybe I can follow this Jesus. What is all this about practically? Simply this, it's about hearing and saying his words and doing his works. It's about proclamation and demonstration. It's about doing the stuff. I believe the world is waiting to see a naturally supernatural church. Doesn't always make sense to our human logic, but sometimes God offends our minds to reveal our hearts. With all the challenges swirling around us in church, city, states, nations, politics, education, you name it, everything swirling in confusion. We need to hire logic. We need to hire wisdom. We need greater strength in our own. We need words and wisdom and power from heaven. If we ask God to use us and listen till we hear and then do what we hear can be a time that faith overcomes fear. Generosity can overcome greed. Covenant can overcome broken promises and love can overcome hate. How does that work by saying his words and doing his work? Not just in churches on Sunday mornings, but at Walmart on Mondays, Wednesday at Wendy's. I was in a hurry to get to a meeting and I had just a few minutes to grab a chicken sandwich at Wendy's a little while ago. So I didn't go inside because living in a small town and everyone sees you and they want to talk and all that. I just had a few minutes off, pulled through Wendy's. I'm just going to grab my chicken sandwich and get to my next thing. And I hear the girl come on the intercom and she said, can I help you, sir? And when she spoke, God said, I want you to tell her something. I said, oh Lord, I'm in a hurry. I've got to get, I just want my chicken sandwich. And he said, no, are you going to say this? And I said, oh Lord, I'm in a hurry. And he said, all right, I'll get somebody else. I said, okay, okay. I knew I was really close to a woodshed moment. So I said, what do you want me to tell him?  And I said, I'm not flirting with you. I did all that stuff.  I'm supposed to tell you not to be afraid that everything's going to be all right. She looked at me and she said, do you know me? And I said, no ma'am, I don't. Did someone tell you about me? And I said, no, I didn't. I said, she said, well, do you know what happened last night? And I said, well, just what I just told you, that's what I know. She said, well, my husband left with my best friend last night and left me alone in my living room. And I cried out to God and I said, God, that's my husband. I'm not going to let him go.  So I said, well, can I pray for you? And so she said, yeah. So I just prayed there and she's leaning out the drive-thru window and I'm praying for her and holding her hand and she's crying and all that stuff. I mean, she's sobbing. I'm getting all the chicken sandwich wet, all that stuff. So I went on, I circle around, I come back a couple of weeks later and then she's there. And I said, hey, how are you doing? She said, you're that guy. You're that guy that God spoke to about me. That's never happened in my life. I said, well, what's happened? My husband came back the next morning, had left my best friend and said, I'm sorry. He repented. He went with me to see a pastor and we're in counseling. Our marriage is going to make it because I cried out to God. I was going to give up. You heard the Lord. You spoke that to me and my marriage is together. It doesn't have to be a big Reinhardt-Bonkey thing. It can be you at Wendy's, moving naturally, supernatural. Somebody said, that's good. That's good stuff right there. What would it look like if we took our gifts and talents and hearts to serve out beyond the walls of our church? What about if you went out in those doors today, you determined, I want to be naturally supernatural? God, is there someone you want me to talk to? There's something you want me to see or do? I can tell you, it can feel scary, uncomfortable and risky, but it's worth it to see people set free and added to the kingdom. And I promise you, whenever I've taken a step of faith, and I think this is the same for you, whenever you take a legitimate step of faith, you'll find Jesus is already there waiting for you.  Let's go do this. Let's go do this. Here's what I'd like to do. I know there may be some questions. Here's what I'd like to do. I'd like to just wait a minute and just be still with the Lord. See if you might have something for us. We're going to do that in just a minute. Can I just ask you first, is there a Paula or a Pauline in here today? Maybe someone's online. Well, if Paula or Pauline is here, and maybe you're online, let me know. I think the Lord gave me a word for you. This lady with the blue jean jacket with dark hair, girl in the mask, the one right behind her. That's you. Yes. What's your name, hun? Donna. I feel like I heard this for you when I walked in. This is how it happens. I just walk in, I turn around, I see Donna, and the Lord just speaks the word. I could say, that's good Lord, I'll pray for her, or I can take a chance of embarrassing myself and missing it by just giving her what I have. Donna, here's what I got. Just a simple thing. You're at a tipping point. It's a place where prayers and waiting become actions. I saw a gate opening and you running out of it like a little dog that's just been released from being inside a pen. What you have cried out for and secret, you will see answers and breakthroughs out in the open. I think by July, everything is going to change for you. Things you've been praying about, almost giving up hope on. They're going to come true. Breakthroughs are coming. July's going to be a big month for you. Can you receive that? Amen? All right. Let's just be quiet for a second, wait on the Lord and see what he might want to do with us. Thank you Jesus. I was doing a class like this at an Anglican conference in England a couple years ago and I'd been teaching on the Holy Spirit and I just could tell people weren't getting it. I think you're getting it. I'm not saying that about you, but they just weren't getting it. There's about 500 people there and we didn't have a lot of time and I said, Lord, it just seems like I'm not getting through. And he said, ask them if they want to receive the Holy Spirit. I said, Lord, this is a Holy Spirit conference. Ask them. So ask if anybody would like to be baptized in the Spirit and 200 of the 500 stood up, gave their lives to Jesus. And before I even talked about the gifts of the Spirit or a prayer language, they just start spontaneously speaking in tongues all over the room. Then they start singing and this sound goes up from that place that we were at and it was amazing. And then the very next thing we did is I just, and I prayed a prayer over them and they went out all over the campus telling people about Jesus, many witnessing for the first time.  If there's anyone here today that you've been wondering about the Holy Spirit, about being baptized in the Spirit, about receiving spiritual gifts, maybe receiving your prayer language in tongues as well, I promise you it won't get weird. But if you'd like for me to pray for you, would you just stand up where you are and if there's anyone in there that wants me to pray, I'll pray for you. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Lord. When Peter had had a trance and the Lord showed him, he wasn't going to be prejudiced about Jews. He was going to, I mean, about Gentiles. He was going to love the Gentiles and I won't go into that story. But at the end of it, he went and prayed for people. He normally wouldn't pray with and the whole family came to the Lord. And then he said in Acts 11, verse 15, as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning. Then I remembered that the Lord had said, John, baptize with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. And God gave them the same gift as he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. Who was I to think that I could oppose God?  I personally believe the Holy Spirit comes in when you are saved. But there are baptisms, there are feelings, there's continual feeling and there are little baptisms of feeling being filled as you go along. And I believe today I want to pray for you that you'd be baptized in the Holy Spirit and there'd be a release of you being naturally supernatural, that your gifts, whatever gifts the Holy Spirit decided to give you would be activated. And I'm also going to pray that you would receive your prayer language. So now as I give you a chance to pray, it just may start to happen. It may happen in the car on the way home. It may happen in the shower in the morning, but it's going to happen. All right, put your hand on your heart if you want me to pray for you and many people around you could just point their hands towards you. Anyone else want to stand before I pray? All right.  All right, those of you standing pray out loud. Lord Jesus, I can't do this on my own. My strength is not enough. I want to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. I want to be in dude with power so I can be a witness so I can embrace a holy life and I can find faith to obey you. Holy Spirit, whatever gift you have for me, I want. I tell you, you are welcome. You are welcome in me. Come Holy Spirit. Now I'll say this, now Father, I ask you to come and baptize these that have stood in the Holy Spirit. Let them be able to speak in other tongues. Let them have a prayer language. If they're prophetic, activate that prophetic gift. If they're evangelistic, activate that evangelistic gift. Lord, give them words of knowledge, words of healing. Come Holy Spirit. They'll never be the same. When they walk through these doors, they'll have more power. They'll have that dunamis, that dynamic, that dynamite power of the Holy Spirit to do things beyond their human ability. Now come Holy, not just be quiet and you guys just begin to pray.  Chances are that's the Holy Spirit. All right, just begin to pray. Thank you God. That's it. Thank you Holy Spirit. Thank you Holy Spirit. Father in Jesus' name, let this not be something for the moment. Father, I pray that they'd walk out of this door different, more power, more faith. I pray this in Jesus' name. You can be seated if you're able. Now I want to demonstrate that for these that stood up and let's just applaud them for having the courage to stand up. But I also wanted you to see that that whole activation doesn't have to be, you don't have to screw up your face and speak in King James and yell and stuff. You can just speak normally, naturally, and supernatural things are going to start to break out of these that stood up. Amen. I don't know how much time, just a few minutes. Are there any questions that have someone's given you, whoever's doing that, or anybody in here you got a question for me? All right. Yes sir. What advice would you give a younger you to start with? Tell yourself. Could we repeat the question? Yeah, his question was what would I advise someone if I could see myself 20, 30 years younger, what to do, what to focus on. I would keep it about Jesus. I wouldn't chase doctrines. I mean, I'd study the Bible. You know, I would serve in church, but I'd keep it about Jesus and I would chase him. He's the one that I would chase. I would focus on him. I wouldn't try to have a ministry. I just try to serve Jesus. That's what I do. And I try to be more obedient quicker. It took me a while to learn that. Anybody else got a question? All right. Do you believe a lack of desperation for God and the minimal natural move of the supernatural is disconnected? So a connection between lack of desperation and what you're talking about here today. You know, there's a lot of folks talking about being desperate for God. And I just like to change that narrative. It's almost you feel like you're condemned. Oh, I'm not desperate enough. Oh, I must not be desperate enough. I mean, just fall to Jesus. Just fall in love with him. Want him more than you want anything else. And you'll walk with a holy desperation. I wake up in the morning, I get up early. And the first thing I do is I set myself up to hear from God. I'll say, this is the day the Lord's made. I'll rejoice and be glad in it. First thing I say, then the next thing I say is, Jesus, is there anything you want to say to me? Holy Spirit, is there anything you want me to do for you today? And then I write it down. I make it more of a habit, a lifestyle, rather than trying to work up a desperation. So I'm telling you, yes, we need to be desperate for God, but it can become the new legalism if we don't watch it. I'm just telling you, Jesus is greater than you can ever imagine. He sees more in you than you'll ever see in yourself. He never calls you out. He always calls you up. So just get up and just make a step toward Jesus. And I promise he will meet you there. I promise he'll meet you there. One of the things that I've learned is music styles have changed through the years, and songs that used to really light me up. And then some of the newer songs, as things started to change, didn't light me up so much. And then I started realizing I was married to a style. And on my worship, I should be able to worship with two sticks out in the middle of the jungle. And so it just, I mean, this morning, I was just worshiping like a wild man. And it just felt so good. A lot of songs I didn't know. But let me tell you, there's something about just making a choice. I'm going to follow after Jesus. I'm going to worship. The context doesn't matter. This is who I am. Maybe one more question? Yes, ma'am. I'm just going to use this opportunity. Do you have a word over Kalamazoo for this day, this hour, that you can just declare of us, please? Well, I have thought about that. Michigan's kind of known right now as a very cross the nation, a very liberal state. It's known more for those that are nominal Christians than those that are Christians. But I've seen revival in the middle of this church. I've told Pastor Lee I've seen an awakening breaking out in Kalamazoo.  I just saw revival breaking out. I saw an awakening breaking out. And when the enemy tries to control the narrative, you can bet the Holy Spirit is going to break out and he's going to reverse it. So I believe something wonderful is rising up in Kalamazoo. One thing you're going to have to do though is you're going to have to be unified. If someone divides with you, make sure it's not your fault. Make sure you've done nothing but maintain the unity and the bond of peace. Bible says in Psalm 133, how beautiful, how lovely it is when people dwell together in unity because it says there in that place, I command a blessing. And I sense a blessing of God coming to this city, an expansion of his kingdom. And I think there are some key leaders here that are going to impact the nation and maybe even the world. So something's up. Anybody else? All right, there's one more thing I want to do and then it'll be time to go. Impartation means to transfer or to extend something that you have. Now you can't you can't give somebody something you don't have. So I can't impart to you the art of bricklaying. I'm not a bricklayer, but I've been giving gifts in the pastoral and in the prophetic, worship leader, songwriter, and I move in the apostolic. So in those areas I can impart. Paul said to the Romans, I long to see that I might impart some spiritual gift to you. So if you're here and you'd like for me to pray for you in those one of those areas, the prophetic words of knowledge, words of wisdom, the pastoral side, the creative side, whether it's songwriting or worship leading.  It's most of you. Those of you that stood up, please put your hand on your heart and I just want to pray. Lord, you said that I could impart gifts that I've been given. I could give away what I've been given. So Lord, this morning in the name of Jesus, I impart, I extend, I transfer those gifts in the prophetic, those gifts in the pastoral, those creative gifts in leading worship and songwriting and music, words of knowledge, words of wisdom. Lord, those things and a heart for evangelism. Lord, I don't call myself an evangelist, but I have a heart for evangelism. So I just impart, I extend into everyone that's standing up and I ask you Lord for them to walk out of this place with a greater measure of anointing than when they walked in. So I pray this prayer of impartation because I want to see the kingdom expand. I want to see the ministry of Jesus transferred and extended and I challenge all of you when you have an opportunity impart the gift that you've been given and do others. Those sons and daughters and granddaughters and grandsons coming along call out their destiny and impart your gifts into them and bless them in that way. I pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus. Amen. Thank you so much for coming. I'll see you a little later.


What's going on, everyone? Sam here with late in sports car, dripping 2012 upper deck, exquisite football hobby, three bucks case. Random team style, all teams are in. So here are your random results. We are starting up with David V. Again, I'll kind of just go down a little bit, all of your names. Again, these are copied over on the website under the results tab, as well as the link and chat. So Jacob P on the bottom with the Ravens, Brent with the bucks, and up top, David V with the browns. So good luck. Here we go. Was I peed? What are you, three rich? I freaked out for a second. I thought I said 2013. I was like, oh no. Oh God. What did I do? I need for the I say I peed. I will. I don't care. I absolutely will. Bro, how do you open this? I think it's that way, right? All right, we got it. We got the tin here. That's why I do. Let's see. These are kind of fire, actually. Oh my Lord. So it's like that right there. So there's cards we just take out, I guess. We've got a Bart Star, 40 out of 85. That'll be for the Packers. Nice one there. That is Alabama. Assuming this will go to the, I'll take this out. 42 out of 175, Eddie Leasy, the Packers. This, I think this guy is still in the NFL, actually. Do you want to explain how these will go? Yeah, so any guy that's retired will go to the longest tenure and anybody who's still in the NFL will go to the team that they are currently on. So this is gonna go Falcons because he is still currently on the Falcons right as we speak. This is gonna be Casey Hayward. Inscribed Go Commodores. That's really cool. Casey Hayward inscribed Go Commodores 27 out of 99. This guy brings up memories right here, dude. This guy brings up freaking memories. Holy cow, I'm pretty sure he's only, like I know where he's gonna go. But this is Georgia Tech legend, man. Yeah, longest, I guess longest tenure would be the Jets. Career stats of this guy would be, yeah, he'll go to the Jets.  That's gonna be, how about Stephen Hill? Three colored RPA, 38 out of 50 going to the Jets. Nice one there, Jets. Stephen Hill, Georgia Tech yellow jacket legend, dude, this one's so nasty. I got a double check, but I think this goes where I think it does. With this, this was somebody we were having a conversation about earlier as well. This is somebody we were having a conversation about earlier.  How about the muscle hamster? Doug Martin, four out of 60 on the silhouette auto. Dude, that's so sick. The dimensions.  I think so, yeah. Doug Martin, the muscle hamster. I have no idea where this guy goes. This will go Chargers. This will go Chargers. We've got a Johnny Rogers. Johnny Rogers from Nebraska. That is 39 out of 60. Nice, Johnny Rogers. And then this is this, this is awesome. This is fantastic. How about 33 out of 65, Trent Richardson? There we go, baby. Let's go, dude, the gold auto. One of my original email passwords was Alabama Three because of Trent Richardson. That's so sick. I loved Trent Richardson. That's so cool. That's going to Cleveland right there, longest tenure with the Browns. I believe, let me double check, because he did get traded to Colts. I don't know how long he lasted there, but that is cool. That's the allegiance of American football. Oh, that's right. He was on the Ravens practice squad too. That's cool. I believe he played the most with Cleveland. Yes, yeah, he played 15 and 16 games with Cleveland and then additional two, then only 14 and 15 with the Colts. So yes, that'll go to the Browns. Got some of that Browns. That is going to the Chargers. That is going to the Chargers. Ian Thomas? No, not Ian Thomas. Ian, no, Vinny Peretta. Vinny Peretta. That's who proposed to his girlfriend after the game, Vinny Peretta. Or it was Ian Johnson. Ian Johnson. There you go, using the rich one right there. We've got John Hannah. That's 63 out of 85. John Hannah. I'm assuming this goes to the Seahawks. That's going to be Geno Smith on the rookie, the 2013 rookie. West Virginia legend, Mountaineer. Nice one there. No idea where this goes. No idea. I think this goes Cardinals. Yeah, this'll go Cardinals. We've got Laren Bird. That is inscribed Go Hurricanes. Chill, chill, chill, Wahoos, chill. Nice one there. Trade Upper Deck. First round quarterback draft pick. Do we, that's a rich question right there. Trade Upper Deck, we will mail you. This expires on June 1st, 2015. Random? I believe this goes Lyons, but let me double check. I'll do this guy, which is so good. Yeah, this'll go Lyons. How about four out of 150? That is Ryan Broyles. Let's go, baby. Ryan Broyles. Two colored RPA for the Lyons, that's so sick. This is kind of nasty too, in terms of. This'll go Dallas. This is going to go Dallas right here. That is Herschel Walker, 28 out of 60. Nice one there, congrats Dallas. That's right, I just got harder to beat. That's sick, that's really sick. Congrats Dallas, this next one is pretty freaking awesome. Rest in peace right here. Going to the Packers, 24 of 75, Bart Starr, boom, let's go. RIP man, Absolute Legends, Absolute Legend. Be thoroughly missed. He's a hawk, okay, that'll go. I think that's, I'm still so far, my reaching is so far behind. Yeah, mine is pretty slow too. Yeah, we've got, that is 26 of 65, Muhammad Sanu. I don't believe he's on a team at the moment. Let me double check that really quick. Agents, I'm assuming, where did he have his, most games, let's see, he was recently released by the Dolphins Practice Squad. Technically, his majority played four years in Cincinnati and four years in Atlanta. He played more games with Cincinnati. So that is 26 out of 65. Going to the Bengals, Muhammad Sanu, where he was drafted, very nice. So they said redemption for luck. First round of a first round quarterback draft pick. Let's do the last one. Yes, yes. This stuff is so slow. Oh, sure. Once that guys. Doc's coming in here quick, y'all. We only have the last four breaks remaining with spots for today. Next one's going to be a three box mosaic, football number 39, I'll show the link here. Now, restreams back up to speed again. Take this out of the box, out of the box. We've got a Jason White to 85. Oh, then we got Rich's boy behind that. Going to the Patriots to 175. That is Aaron Dompson, Marshall and Patriot Legends. Let me check this guy really quick. I think it's Texans. Yep, this will go to the Texans. We've got Keshon Martin. Nice one there, congrats on that. Keshon Martin, return specialist for the Texans. Every single one of his one-of-ones. Next up, I think it's Colts. I just don't know how long he played on the other team. Yep, this will go Colts. We got Andrew Lux, roommate in college. That is Kobe Fleener on the two-colored patch auto. Thompson, oh no. Nice one there, congrats on that, Indianapolis. Next up, we got going to the Raiders. That's nasty. That's gonna be a bow, Jackson. Very nice, congrats on that. Exquisite choice, interesting. We've got exquisite choice quad signatures. I don't wanna mess with this too much. Joe Washington, Anthony Carter, Trent Richardson, and Jerryus Wright. Let me go ahead and, I know we got Browns and I think Vikings for Wright, but he was actually in the NFL for longer than I thought. You can slide those tabs out, okay. Okay, so Vikings for Jerryus Wright, Browns for T-Rich. Joe Washington. Joe is gonna be washed for the Redskins, I believe. Yeah, he'll be Redskins, and then Anthony Carter will be Vikings. Vikings, so Vikings with two. So who's got the Vikings? Minnesota is Justin T. Browns is David V. And then, yeah, I'm assuming that, unless Justin has the other one, which is Washington. Dustin, so yeah, that'll be a random to those four teams at the end on the exquisite choice quad signatures. And then Arizona State Legend right here, I think, I just don't know if he is. Majority lies. This'll go to the Cardinals. Jake Plummer, Jake the Snake, four out of 65. Very nice. All right, guys, let's do a quick random, really quick. Trent Richardson, Jerryus Wright, Joe Washington, Anthony Carter. And we'll do a quick recap and then I will actually turn it over to Kenzie now. Laking. All right, guys, again, doing the random for the exquisite choice. Trent Richardson, Jerryus Wright, Joe Washington and Anthony Carter quad signatures. Jerryus Wright and Anthony Carter, both Majority Vikings, Trent Richardson, Browns and Joe Washington with the Commanders. Gonna roll the dice, whatever team is on top after 12 times, look at the card. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12. Going to the Commanders. Commanders getting that card.

That's four Andrew Luck. Kobe Fliener. Ryan Broyles. Steven Hill. We've got the Muscle Hamster, Doug Martin. And a Bart Starr, 24 out of 75 for the Packers. Let me do it for the break, guys. Thanks again for the fill. Next up, we've got 2016, 90. Nice, 20.


Chrysler starts with us gathering the Council of Light to reforge the Chrysler spiral key. The burrowers are trying to overthrow the Umbra Queen. We learn that the Umbra Queen is going to destroy the burrowers' strongholds of Peppergrass Nook and Queen Myrtletown. We get the comb key, which unlocks the gate to the last wood. We get into the last wood and meet their resistance. We disrupt the operations at Tyrion Gorge to push back the Umbra Queen's plan to drop Kermes fire on the burrowers. We hatch some dragonflies, we take control of the banyan tower, we light a smoke signal and the honeycomb wall gets blown up by the flying burrowers. We then storm the Eclipse Tower. We free the caretakers of the tower from Morgant's control. We learn about shadow magic, a dangerous variation of moon magic. After our success in the tower, we restore bastion to what it was before the war. We make peace between mice, sugar gliders and bees, and focus all their forces on stopping Morgant. We force our way to Ghostog, Morgant's first warlord, and defeat him and recover the dying starstone.


The Gavian weirs serve the same functions as impervious weirs, but they have the advantage of being eco-friendly, more stable, and economical and low-to-medium headcases. Additionally, dissolved oxygen is one of the main factors used to determine the purity of water. To compare different models for predicting Gavian wear-aration performance efficiency, APE-20, this study has been conducted using multiple linear regression, MLR, neural network, NIN, neurofuzzy system, NFS, deep neural network, DNN, and reported empirical models. The results showed that the DNN model had the highest value of R2, 0.935, and NSE, 0.934, and had the lowest error rate in validation phase. In addition, the trapezoidal-shaped NFS model had the second best result with R2, 0.873, and NSE, 0.852, while the MLR model had the third best result with R2, 0.905, and NSE, 0.897. Finally, the remaining models of NFS-based and empirical relations were unable to perform. This article was authored by Nan Tuuri, K. M. Luxmi, and Subod Renjun. We are article.tv.

And this is what the surface of a kidney stone looks like under a microscope. Imagine that scraping down your urinary canal. Kidney stones affect approximately 1 in 11 people in the United States, though 20 years ago it was only 1 in 20, a dramatic increase in the prevalence of this disease that started going up after World War II. Our first clue as to why was published in the 1970s. A striking relationship was found between stone incidents and the consumption of animal protein. But this was a population study, though. You can't prove cause and effect. So next, researchers in Britain did an interventional study. Added animal protein to their diet, like an extra can of tuna fish, to their daily diet, and measured stone-forming risk factors in their urine, how much calcium they were peeing out, the concentration of oxalate and uric acid in their urine before and after the extra tuna. Their overall probability of forming stones increased 250% during those days they were eating that extra fish. And that so-called high animal protein diet, that was just enough to bring intake up to that of the average American. So the average American intake of meat appears to markedly increase risk of kidney stones. So what about no meat? Well, even by the late 70s we knew that the only dietary factor consistently associated with kidney stones was animal protein. And not just getting your first kidney stone, the higher the intake of animal protein, the more likely an individual is to have multiple stones rather than just one single stone episode. Not protein in general. It seems specifically high in animal protein. Conversely, a diet low in animal protein may reduce the overall probability of forming stones to become very low indeed, which may explain the apparent low incidence of stones in vegetarian society. So it may be worthwhile advocating a more vegetarian form of diet as a means of reducing the risk. But it wasn't until 2014 when actual vegetarians were studied in detail. Using hospital admissions data they found that vegetarians were indeed at a lower risk of being hospitalized for kidney stones compared to those that ate meat. And among meat eaters, increasing meat intake was associated with a higher risk of developing kidney stones, whereas a high intake of fresh fruit, fiber, and magnesium may reduce the risk. We can use this information to advise the public about prevention of kidney stone formation. What advice should we give in terms of which animal protein is the worst? Despite compelling evidence that excessive animal protein consumption enhances the risk of stone formation, the effect of different sources of animal protein had not been explored until this study was published in 2014. People who formed kidney stones are commonly advised to restrict the intake of red meat to decrease stone risk. But what about chicken and fish? We didn't know until now. Salmon and cod were compared to chicken breast meat and burger and steak. They found that gram per gram fish may actually be worse in terms of uric acid production. However, the overall effects were complex, basically stone formers should be counseled to limit the intake of all animal proteins. And not just a little bit, only those who markedly decrease their animal protein intake may expect to benefit from dietary recommendations. Studies suggest that excessive animal protein consumption poses a risk of kidney stone formation, likely due to the acid load provided by the high content of sulfur-containing amino acids in animal protein. As I explored in my video on preventing kidney stones with diet, but what about treating kidney stones? Most stones are calcium oxalate, formed like rock candy when the urine becomes super saturated. So doctors just assumed if they're made out of calcium, we just have to tell people to reduce their calcium intake. So that was like the dietary gospel for kidney stone sufferers until this study was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, pitting the two diets against one another, low calcium versus low animal protein and salt, and it was the restriction of animal protein and salt that provided greater protection, cutting the risk of having another kidney stone within five years in half. What about cutting down on oxalates, which are concentrated in certain vegetables? A recent study found that there was no increased risk of stone formation with higher vegetable intake. In fact, greater dietary intake of whole plant foods, fruits and vegetables were each associated with a reduced risk independent of other known risk factors for kidney stones, meaning one may get additional benefits bulking up on plant foods in addition to just restricting animal foods. The reasons a reduction in animal protein helps is not only because it reduces the reduction of acids within the body, a reduction of animal protein should also limit the excretion of urate, uric acid crystals that can act as a seed to form calcium stones, or it can create entire stones themselves. Uric acid stones are the second most common kidney stones after calcium. There's two ways to reduce uric acid levels in the urine, a reduction in animal protein ingestion or drugs, and removing all meat can remove 93% of uric acid crystallization risk. Here's the risk of crystals forming, eating the standard Western diet for five days, and then switching to a vegetarian diet leads to a 93% drop in risk within days. To minimize uric acid crystallization, the goal is to get the urine pH up to ideally as high as 6.8, so a number of alkalinalizing chemicals have been developed. We can naturally alkalize our urine up to the recommended 6.8 using purely dietary means, namely by removing all meat, which takes someone eating the standard Western diet up from an acid 5.95 right up to the target of 6.8 eating a vegetarian diet. You can inexpensively test your own diet with a little bathroom chemistry, for not all plant foods are alkalinalizing and not all animal foods are equally acidifying. A so-called lake score was developed, a load of acid to kidney score, which takes into account both the acid load of foods and their typical serving sizes, and can be used to help people modify their diet for the prevention of both uric acid and calcium kidney stones and other diseases. This is what they found. The single most acid producing food was fish, like tuna, then pork, then poultry, then cheese, though milk and other dairy only rates down here. Then comes beef. Now eggs are actually more acidic than beef, more acid forming, but people tend to eat less eggs at a sitting, so they come in here. Some grains can be a little acid forming, such as bread, rice, but not pasta, interestingly. Beans are significantly alkaline forming, but not as much as fruits, and vegetables are the most alkaline forming of all foods. Through dietary changes alone, we may be able to dissolve uric acid stones away completely, cure them. Now you see it, now you don't. No drugs, no surgery, just telling them to drink more water and modify their diet, such as restricting the intake of animal protein, and the kidney stone was gone. To summarize, here are the five types of kidney stones, and the most important things we can do diet-wise is to drink 10 to 12 cups of water a day and reduce animal protein, reduce salt, eat more vegetables, and more vegetarian.
