23:02.811 --> 23:07.333 [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you've already given good sound advice of like, engage vote. 23:07.693 --> 23:12.055 [SPEAKER_01]: If you are able to vote, you should vote, and you should love your neighbor well. 23:12.095 --> 23:15.897 [SPEAKER_01]: You should stuard your humanity in service of others. 23:15.998 --> 23:17.418 [SPEAKER_01]: Like do all the things you can do. 23:17.939 --> 23:21.480 [SPEAKER_01]: But I would also encourage people to connect with other human beings. 23:21.721 --> 23:26.483 [SPEAKER_01]: I think that we are way too isolated. 23:26.783 --> 23:27.443 [SPEAKER_01]: And I get it. 23:27.564 --> 23:29.324 [SPEAKER_01]: There's nothing riskier than another human. 23:30.405 --> 23:31.947 [SPEAKER_01]: when we're hurt, it's often by people. 23:32.107 --> 23:32.507 [SPEAKER_01]: I get it. 23:32.608 --> 23:33.008 [SPEAKER_01]: I get it. 23:33.869 --> 23:39.435 [SPEAKER_01]: Yet, we have got to break forth and break out and move into real community with other folks. 23:39.636 --> 23:40.056 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yes. 23:40.216 --> 23:45.382 [SPEAKER_01]: AP, AP, AP, even when you watch the news, watch the news with people. 23:45.442 --> 23:50.268 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, like, like, start to like, communally discern what's happening in the world. 23:50.688 --> 23:53.910 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that is, I mean, that's, that's also the key to organizing. 23:54.230 --> 23:58.151 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, anyway, it's knowing your neighbor building, neighborly love, y'all. 23:59.052 --> 24:04.214 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, and not, I mean, I, I mean, I truthfully, I, I mean, I had to be the doomsday profit. 24:05.255 --> 24:06.215 [SPEAKER_00]: Even though that's what I am. 24:06.687 --> 24:11.150 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so, not you, that's okay, but you're stepping into a new season. 24:11.190 --> 24:12.151 [SPEAKER_01]: We'll amen. 24:12.311 --> 24:13.512 [SPEAKER_01]: Expecting the good. 24:13.852 --> 24:14.853 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah. 24:14.873 --> 24:16.414 [SPEAKER_00]: The look, the look is still doing good. 24:16.835 --> 24:17.715 [SPEAKER_00]: It's promising. 24:17.915 --> 24:18.776 [SPEAKER_01]: Exnowaging the mess. 24:18.796 --> 24:20.197 [SPEAKER_01]: The end of the mess, both, both. 24:20.217 --> 24:25.361 [SPEAKER_00]: But you know, it is going to get a bit darker before we get. 24:25.601 --> 24:34.448 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, you know, there's some, there's some shenanigans of foot, you know, um, well, and we know the shenanigans, but we don't know exactly how they go shenanigans. 24:36.232 --> 24:37.072 [SPEAKER_00]: We just have to be ready. 24:37.132 --> 24:57.716 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think to your point about knowing our neighbors community building not being isolated is going to be really key, especially, yeah, as we're heading toward the end of 2026 the year is not over yet, there is still more, yeah, to time to be lived and so I think we just have to be prepared for any any scenario. 24:57.776 --> 25:01.417 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so in the voting booth is again, it's just the start. 25:07.038 --> 25:08.019 [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't look good. 25:08.679 --> 25:15.902 [SPEAKER_01]: Theologically, it doesn't look good because there is no... Well, ecclesiastically, you know? 25:16.122 --> 25:19.144 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm saying, you actually have to repair. 25:19.164 --> 25:19.844 [SPEAKER_01]: You have to repent. 25:20.424 --> 25:27.247 [SPEAKER_01]: And so part of our issue is that, and I mean this from the progressive and the conservative side, part of our issue is that we want to move forward without repentance. 25:28.179 --> 25:29.840 [SPEAKER_01]: you actually have to. 25:29.920 --> 25:32.422 [SPEAKER_01]: We got to be like, yeah, that was over. 25:32.442 --> 25:33.703 [SPEAKER_01]: That was a bit much. 25:33.763 --> 25:35.083 [SPEAKER_01]: We have to. 25:35.123 --> 25:36.404 [SPEAKER_00]: Like church discipline. 25:36.424 --> 25:36.825 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 25:36.845 --> 25:44.209 [SPEAKER_01]:

Yeah, like we, I think we, yeah, like, like, they will, without repentance, there's no confidence that it won't repeat yourself over and over again. 25:44.249 --> 25:45.330 [SPEAKER_01]: You didn't learn your lesson. 25:45.370 --> 25:47.431 [SPEAKER_01]: You didn't demonstrate that we learned our lesson. 25:47.451 --> 25:48.432 [SPEAKER_01]: We haven't turned away. 25:48.452 --> 25:49.633 [SPEAKER_01]: And so you mean like the US? 25:51.157 --> 25:52.738 [SPEAKER_01]: Everything's great. 25:52.818 --> 25:53.638 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what you're talking about. 25:53.658 --> 25:54.258 [SPEAKER_01]: Everything's great. 25:54.278 --> 25:58.060 [SPEAKER_01]: Remember when we gave slaveholders money, we gave them money, give them money. 25:58.160 --> 25:59.421 [SPEAKER_01]: She's them money. 25:59.821 --> 26:02.022 [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, anyway, it's just it's sad. 26:02.062 --> 26:02.782 [SPEAKER_01]: It's really sad. 26:02.822 --> 26:04.523 [SPEAKER_01]: But I think I am holding out. 26:05.083 --> 26:09.985 [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, so I'm well aware sociologically just how busted it is. 26:10.085 --> 26:11.846 [SPEAKER_01]: I am leaving margin in hope. 26:12.386 --> 26:16.628 [SPEAKER_01]: This is where faith comes in for the supernatural. 26:17.408 --> 26:26.377 [SPEAKER_01]: And that's what it would take and that's what it would take the super natural and I'm like If you want to do that, Lord, you do that. 26:26.477 --> 26:31.462 [SPEAKER_01]: If you want to do that, like go for it, like Yes, absolutely do that thing Lord. 26:31.622 --> 26:37.228 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and the Lord could also be like you will reap what you saw That could happen too 26:38.372 --> 26:44.214 [SPEAKER_00]: and is bugged I could turn it, but yeah, it is, it is, you know, side. 26:44.894 --> 27:00.639 [SPEAKER_00]: I know, I know, I'm also curious about what the, um, our, uh, since it's at the table, the brothers in the stand room section have to say, but, you know, this season, it was, there were just, and there were so many, about proud of us for making it because there were so many things changing all the time daily, there was no way you could cover everything. 27:01.099 --> 27:03.320 [SPEAKER_00]: And so much would have under this thing. 27:03.360 --> 27:11.423 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think we did, as well as we could consider, like, for instance, the Jim Crow maps, what he's so so so, we had to get her to talk about this. 27:11.463 --> 27:17.585 [SPEAKER_00]: This whole gerrymandering mess and gutting the voting rights acted diluting black political power. 27:17.665 --> 27:21.666 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, yeah, that was really important for us to get, he's so so so on. 27:21.706 --> 27:24.207 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm so grateful that she came on again. 27:24.427 --> 27:27.489 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, you know, because that to me was all hands on deck. 27:27.509 --> 27:28.289 [SPEAKER_00]: We had to have that. 27:28.909 --> 27:30.890 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that conversation for sure. 27:31.050 --> 27:42.816 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, as always, we featured some really great guests and books that we got to reflect on and, you know, in the midst of laughter and joy, all of those things took place this season. 27:42.836 --> 27:47.899 [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm grateful to be able to be at the table with you, dear sister, and all of the folks. 27:48.559

down and celebrate. 28:47.472 --> 28:55.117 [SPEAKER_00]: Pat ourselves on the back and, you know, give God Lord for just the way that God is kept and sustained the work because it has been through.
