I wonder why? 00:00:44.66\00:00:47.35 I think it's important to figure out 00:00:47.36\00:00:49.06 why those stories were in the Bible, don't you? 00:00:49.07\00:00:51.50 Because God always has a good reason 00:00:51.51\00:00:53.64 for everything He does. 00:00:53.65\00:00:55.36 And in our Bible story today, the Prophet Elisha, 00:00:55.37\00:00:58.05 told a man to do a very strange thing. 00:00:58.06\00:01:00.57 No, it wasn't a big thing, but it was a bit strange. 00:01:00.58\00:01:04.43 It just didn't make any sense 00:01:04.44\00:01:06.08 and doing it would even be a little embarrassing. 00:01:06.09\00:01:09.57 He was a very important man 00:01:09.58\00:01:11.25 and he didn't want to do anything 00:01:11.26\00:01:12.90 that was embarrassing. 00:01:12.91\00:01:14.20 He almost didn't do it 00:01:14.21\00:01:16.09 and that could have cost him his life. 00:01:16.10\00:01:19.38 Sometimes God tests us with small things 00:01:19.39\00:01:22.01 to let us know that may be we need to trust Him more. 00:01:22.02\00:01:25.63 Why don't you think about that today 00:01:25.64\00:01:27.15 as you watch our Bible story, okay? 00:01:27.16\00:01:29.37 Right now, it's time for our Nature Time. 00:01:29.38\00:01:33.53 Welcome to Nature Time. 00:01:40.21\00:01:41.38 We're at Binder Park Zoo in, Battle Creek, Michigan. 00:01:41.39\00:01:44.10 And we've got this neat animal that 00:01:44.11\00:01:46.22 I've never even heard before kids, 00:01:46.23\00:01:48.60 and that's why we have Baggy. 00:01:48.61\00:01:50.00 Baggy, I'm glad, you're the expert on this animal. 00:01:50.01\00:01:52.30 Yeah, thanks for coming out. 00:01:52.31\00:01:53.82 So now what do we have? 00:01:53.83\00:01:55.72 This is what you called a red river hog. 00:01:55.73\00:01:59.00 Yes, a red river hog. 00:01:59.01\00:02:00.04 So why do they call it a red river hog? 00:02:00.05\00:02:01.57 It looks kind of red, is that why? Yes. 00:02:01.58\00:02:03.48 Okay, now tell me a little bit about this red river hog. 00:02:03.49\00:02:06.69 What does it do? Where does it live? 00:02:06.70\00:02:09.30 It lives in Western Central Africa. 00:02:09.31\00:02:11.45 They spend most of the day lying in a burrow, 00:02:11.46\00:02:13.80 that they construct themselves out of mud. 00:02:13.81\00:02:16.72 So it's like a little, they dig away burrow hole. 00:02:16.73\00:02:20.03 It's a big dig undergrounds. Okay. 00:02:20.04\00:02:21.77 Usually with mud and other plants around it. 00:02:21.78\00:02:25.09 Is that, is that because when they dig down, 00:02:25.10\00:02:26.67 they stay cool that way? 00:02:26.68\00:02:27.72 Yes, they stay cool. 00:02:27.73\00:02:28.81 Okay, and they're, and they're from Africa. 00:02:28.82\00:02:30.81 Where about in Africa? Western Central Africa. 00:02:30.82\00:02:33.26 Okay, now they've got this funny looking thing 00:02:33.27\00:02:36.25 coming out of their ears, what's that called? 00:02:36.26\00:02:38.68 They're called ear tassels and actually they puff them out, 00:02:38.69\00:02:41.96 when they're threatened, 00:02:41.97\00:02:42.99 so that they look bigger to scare off predators. 00:02:43.00\00:02:45.14 Wow! Isn't God amazing, kids? 00:02:45.15\00:02:47.42 He's always doing something to help these animals. 00:02:47.43\00:02:50.07 Now, you've got two of them here in the zoo 00:02:50.08\00:02:53.61 and I heard that these are new to the zoo. 00:02:53.62\00:02:57.43 Yes, their names are Harley and Squeaky. 00:02:57.44\00:02:59.38 Harley and Squeaky, and they've been here 00:02:59.39\00:03:00.83 for a little bit over a year, 00:03:00.84\00:03:02.13 but we had to raise the money to build their exhibit. 00:03:02.14\00:03:04.58 Okay, and I see that, Binder Park Zoo, 00:03:04.59\00:03:09.14 which is amazing to me. 00:03:09.15\00:03:11.27 There's only like you say, 00:03:11.28\00:03:12.31 "Ten zoos like this in the United States 00:03:12.32\00:03:14.44 that are privately owned." 00:03:14.45\00:03:15.52 Yes, we're non-profit organization, 00:03:15.53\00:03:17.33 so we need to raise the money to build new exhibits 00:03:17.34\00:03:20.27 and get new animals. 00:03:20.28\00:03:21.36 So we have a lot of very generous donors, yeah. 00:03:21.37\00:03:24.91 The money that we raise from our admissions 00:03:24.92\00:03:27.34 and our concessions are actually 00:03:27.35\00:03:28.88 used to feed the animals and to pay the staff, 00:03:28.89\00:03:31.94 so that they get the proper care. 00:03:31.95\00:03:33.17 Well, that's so cool. 00:03:33.18\00:03:34.63 Now I see it right now, it looks like, 00:03:34.64\00:03:36.26 it's burying, it looks like, 00:03:36.27\00:03:37.60 they-- You've got this electric fence down there. 00:03:37.61\00:03:40.22 It looks like they're kind of burrowing the ground, 00:03:40.23\00:03:41.80 they like to burrow or what? 00:03:41.81\00:03:42.95 They do, they'd use their really strong noses 00:03:42.96\00:03:45.02 to dig up roots. Okay. 00:03:45.03\00:03:46.27 And to find insects and stuff, 00:03:46.28\00:03:47.85 and that's why the wire is there, 00:03:47.86\00:03:49.26 so that they can't dig out underneath the fence. 00:03:49.27\00:03:52.07 Okay, now do they have any predators? 00:03:52.08\00:03:55.08 I mean, they look kind of small, but I don't think, 00:03:55.09\00:03:57.58 I'd want to tangle with one of those kids. 00:03:57.59\00:03:59.65 Yes, they have some predators, lions. Okay. 00:03:59.66\00:04:02.61 Spotted hyenas, leopards, 00:04:02.62\00:04:04.56 but their piglets are pretty small, 00:04:04.57\00:04:06.62 so they have more predators. 00:04:06.63\00:04:08.43 The same ones and kind of a python too. 00:04:08.44\00:04:11.10 Even a python, a snake. 00:04:11.11\00:04:13.02 Wow! But that's only the little one-- 00:04:13.03\00:04:15.00 Right, right-- 00:04:15.01\00:04:16.10 Okay, and how many little ones do they have? 00:04:16.11\00:04:17.26 They have between one and six, typically four. 00:04:17.27\00:04:19.79 Okay, typically four and out of that, 00:04:19.80\00:04:22.45 you don't know for sure, maybe you know, 00:04:22.46\00:04:24.23 I don't, I certainly don't know, 00:04:24.24\00:04:25.38 like 50%, it seem like in the wild, 00:04:25.39\00:04:28.05 less than half a little ones always live. 00:04:28.06\00:04:30.06 Yeah. It's about right. 00:04:30.07\00:04:31.50 Yeah, 'cause of those predators 00:04:31.51\00:04:32.70 and then humans are also predators, 00:04:32.71\00:04:34.45 but, you know, the development 00:04:34.46\00:04:36.41 and the deforestation. 00:04:36.42\00:04:38.14 Oh, I have another question. 00:04:38.15\00:04:40.04 I'm watching him run around here 00:04:40.05\00:04:41.96 and do they like running around 00:04:41.97\00:04:45.15 more the day light or at night? 00:04:45.16\00:04:46.80 They come out more at night. 00:04:46.81\00:04:48.55 Now why would that be, do you know 00:04:48.56\00:04:49.81 or do they find more animals at night? 00:04:49.82\00:04:51.63 It's cooler at night and-- So they don't like being hot. 00:04:51.64\00:04:56.26 Right. Okay, okay. 00:04:56.27\00:04:58.56 Now you said that if a lion was going 00:04:58.57\00:05:03.65 after one of these red river hogs, 00:05:03.66\00:05:06.66 if they got backed up into a corner 00:05:06.67\00:05:08.45 and has some tusks. 00:05:08.46\00:05:09.80 It has huge tusk that they would use to defend itself. 00:05:09.81\00:05:12.28 A piglet would play dead, 00:05:12.29\00:05:14.22 kind of like opossum does. Okay. 00:05:14.23\00:05:15.74 'Cause they're so small and then once they get older, 00:05:15.75\00:05:18.16 they would run away or if they're backed into a corner 00:05:18.17\00:05:20.93 then they would, you know-- 00:05:20.94\00:05:22.19 They're gonna fight. Yeah. 00:05:22.20\00:05:23.46 And so, kids, I don't think you'd ever want to tussle 00:05:23.47\00:05:25.51 with one of these red river hogs. 00:05:25.52\00:05:28.00 I think that they need these little things. 00:05:28.01\00:05:29.53 Now, can they see very well? Yes, they can see really well, 00:05:29.54\00:05:31.93 but obviously they use their ears a lot. 00:05:31.94\00:05:34.23 So what can they see better, hear better, or smell better? 00:05:34.24\00:05:38.76 They can smell better. They can smell better. 00:05:38.77\00:05:40.64 I noticed that, all right, kids, it was neat. 00:05:40.65\00:05:42.96 They threw some nuts out. 00:05:42.97\00:05:44.33 What kind of nuts were they eating? 00:05:44.34\00:05:45.39 We gave them walnuts and pecans 00:05:45.40\00:05:47.59 and some almonds with all with the shell on it. 00:05:47.60\00:05:51.70 They're like their own personal nutcracker. 00:05:51.71\00:05:53.36 All right, and I was, 00:05:53.37\00:05:54.42 I heard them cracking those nuts, that was amazing. 00:05:54.43\00:05:57.56 Well, we've got to go, Baggy, 00:05:57.57\00:05:59.96 but it's been a blessing out here. 00:05:59.97\00:06:01.62 You're a certainly an expert on this red river hogs. 00:06:01.63\00:06:03.67 I've learned a lot today.

Yeah. 00:10:12.88\00:10:14.74 Okay, go ahead, show us how you can do the yoyo? 00:10:14.75\00:10:16.96 Down and up and up and down, and down. 00:10:16.97\00:10:20.81 Well, they're hard to do sometimes, aren't they? 00:10:20.82\00:10:23.11 But, you know, a yoyo goes down and then it comes up, 00:10:23.12\00:10:26.41 if you kind of jerk it or pull it up. 00:10:26.42\00:10:28.11 You know, that kind of reminds me of sometimes, 00:10:28.12\00:10:30.15 you know, sometimes you and I might feel down, right? 00:10:30.16\00:10:33.28 Might feel kind of like sad 00:10:33.29\00:10:35.00 and then some other times you might feel, 00:10:35.01\00:10:36.66 you know, little more cherry, that's kind of interesting, 00:10:36.67\00:10:39.65 but that's the way life is sometimes, isn't it? 00:10:39.66\00:10:41.92 But, you know what? 00:10:41.93\00:10:42.93 I've got something here that we're gonna try. 00:10:42.94\00:10:45.07 Let's try a yoyo like you've never seen before. 00:10:45.08\00:10:48.20 Wow! So it look like a yoyo? 00:10:48.21\00:10:50.35 No! Well, it's really not a yoyo, 00:10:50.36\00:10:52.76 but it's this bigger wheel right here. 00:10:52.77\00:10:54.74 Now, what's interesting is, if I pull 00:10:54.75\00:10:57.48 and I have a string on here, you can see it. 00:10:57.49\00:10:59.80 Now if I pull on this string, if I pull the string his way, 00:10:59.81\00:11:04.42 what direction is that going to go? 00:11:04.43\00:11:07.21 If I pull it this way, what do you think? That way. 00:11:07.22\00:11:11.23 Okay, if I pull on the string this way, 00:11:11.24\00:11:13.58 the yoyo ought to go this way, shouldn't it? Yeah. 00:11:13.59\00:11:16.31 Okay, well, here we go. 00:11:16.32\00:11:17.61 And I'm gonna pull only that way, 00:11:17.62\00:11:19.25 check this out, and I'm gonna pull it, 00:11:19.26\00:11:21.23 here we go, here we go, 00:11:21.24\00:11:22.71 let's get this thing going right here, 00:11:22.72\00:11:24.37 and I'm pulling on it, which way is it going? That way. 00:11:24.38\00:11:27.29 It wants to go the opposite way, 00:11:27.30\00:11:29.99 but you know, what happens if I lower 00:11:30.00\00:11:32.76 where the string is being attached to the center, 00:11:32.77\00:11:35.99 it can go in opposite way. Look at that. 00:11:36.00\00:11:39.01 So it can go this way, if I high, 00:11:39.02\00:11:41.45 if I make this a lot higher, then it goes away from me, 00:11:41.46\00:11:44.81 isn't that interesting? Yeah. 00:11:44.82\00:11:46.63 Or we could walk the dog with it. 00:11:46.64\00:11:48.63 You know, if you walk a dog with a yoyo, 00:11:48.64\00:11:50.70 that means, a yoyo just kind of walks right along with you. 00:11:50.71\00:11:53.81 If I can find that, if I can find that right angle 00:11:53.82\00:11:57.43 and I pull, it just wants to walk with me. 00:11:57.44\00:12:00.30 Look at there, it just wants to walk 00:12:00.31\00:12:02.55 just right with me, isn't that cool? Yeah. 00:12:02.56\00:12:05.88 So it really depends on where the attachment is, 00:12:05.89\00:12:09.41 of our string, and I can pull it, 00:12:09.42\00:12:11.26 then it can come back and I can pull it this way 00:12:11.27\00:12:14.08 and it can go away from me, but, you know, 00:12:14.09\00:12:16.74 life is like that, isn't it? 00:12:16.75\00:12:18.42 Sometimes we have ups when we're feeling very good, 00:12:18.43\00:12:21.36 sometimes we can have downs and we don't feel very good. 00:12:21.37\00:12:24.38 But, you know what, it doesn't matter what you and I feel. 00:12:24.39\00:12:28.23 It doesn't matter if we feel up or down? 00:12:28.24\00:12:30.22 No! No! You know, 00:12:30.23\00:12:32.27 we can't trust our feelings, can we? No. 00:12:32.28\00:12:34.41 We really can't trust our feelings. 00:12:34.42\00:12:35.87 You know, the Bible says that, 00:12:35.88\00:12:37.36 "You and I, ought to what, trust in whom?" 00:12:37.37\00:12:40.40 God! We trust in the word of God, 00:12:40.41\00:12:43.73 because our feelings sometimes are just like yoyos. 00:12:43.74\00:12:46.84 Sometimes we might feel down 00:12:46.85\00:12:48.40 and the sometimes we might feel up, 00:12:48.41\00:12:50.21 but we can't trust our feelings. 00:12:50.22\00:12:51.87 We have to trust in whom? 00:12:51.88\00:12:53.58 God! God! We have to trust in God. 00:12:53.59\00:12:56.62 And that's exactly what I want to do. 00:12:56.63\00:12:59.60 Is that what you want to do too? 00:12:59.61\00:13:00.95 Yeah. Yeah, me too. 00:13:00.96\00:13:03.47 And remember, when we learn about science, 00:13:03.48\00:13:06.35 we learn more about our Creator, God. 00:13:06.36\00:13:10.61 Yes, I can't. What is this? 00:13:22.93\00:13:26.04 What, what, what is this, some kind of trick. 00:13:26.05\00:13:32.26 What, what does the King of Syria think I am? 00:13:32.27\00:13:36.15 Some kind of God. 00:13:36.16\00:13:38.20 Does he think that I can kill, 00:13:38.21\00:13:39.54 that I can make a life, that I can heal, 00:13:39.55\00:13:42.02 Captain Namaan of leprosy? 00:13:42.03\00:13:45.99 Oh, he want this war. 00:13:46.00\00:13:49.86 Oh, king of all Israel, the servant of, Elisha, 00:13:49.87\00:13:52.29 request permission to enter. 00:13:52.30\00:13:54.45 I will allow it, let him in. 00:13:54.46\00:13:56.48 Arise, why are you here? 00:14:01.83\00:14:05.66 Oh, king, Elisha, has sent me with a message. 00:14:05.67\00:14:09.41 He says, "Why have you torn your garments? 00:14:09.42\00:14:12.24 Please send Captain Namaan to me 00:14:12.25\00:14:14.55 and then he will know that 00:14:14.56\00:14:15.68 there is a prophet of God in Israel." 00:14:15.69\00:14:19.63 Not a bad idea. 00:14:19.64\00:14:22.45 Send the captain to, Elisha, to be healed. 00:14:22.46\00:14:25.29 He's in the corridor, take him, 00:14:25.30\00:14:26.82 he's been out there, and get out now. 00:14:26.83\00:14:28.95 Elisha says, "That if you wish to be cleaned, 00:14:43.76\00:14:46.71 you must bath yourself in the Jordan River, seven times." 00:14:46.72\00:14:51.41 The Jordan, the Jordan River? What? 00:14:51.42\00:14:56.08 What does he think I am to bath 00:14:56.09\00:14:57.75 in that dirty Jordan River? 00:14:57.76\00:14:59.83 I'm not gonna wash in that muddy Jordan River. 00:14:59.84\00:15:02.61 All the waters of Damascus are finer than the rivers. 00:15:02.62\00:15:05.50 That muddy, I'm not gonna do that. 00:15:05.51\00:15:08.00 But, Captain Namaan, if he had asked you to do 00:15:08.01\00:15:10.26 some hard and difficult thing, would you not have done it? 00:15:10.27\00:15:12.91 This is such a simple thing, why not just do it? 00:15:12.92\00:15:15.28 Yeah, but to bath in that dirty river, 00:15:15.29\00:15:17.80 I'm the captain of the Syrian army. 00:15:17.81\00:15:23.72 Yet your words ring with counseling. 00:15:23.73\00:15:27.62 All right, let's go to the Jordan. 00:15:27.63\00:15:29.36 Seven times in this filthy river. 00:15:37.10\00:15:41.47 Oh, I hate this water! 00:15:41.48\00:15:48.74 All the rivers of, Damascus, are much nicer than this. 00:15:52.81\00:15:57.53 Filthy Jordan! He said, 00:15:57.54\00:15:59.51 "It must be the River Jordan." 00:15:59.52\00:16:01.24 Are you sure, that's what the prophet said? 00:16:40.92\00:16:44.51 That if you wish to cleaned, 00:16:44.52\00:16:46.25 you must bath yourself in the Jordan River seven times. 00:16:46.26\00:16:49.23 That was only six times, the prophet said, "Seven." 00:16:51.93\00:16:54.33 You must go into one more time. 00:16:54.34\00:16:59.17 It's gone, there it go.
