00:31 Welcome to Thinking About Home
00:32 I'm Kathy Matthews, thank you for coming 00:34 back and being with us again. 00:36 Rick we are back again, here we are we are 00:40 doing a series on the Christian family living 00:44 in the last days and of course there's been 00:47 Christian families all the way back those who 00:50 are committed to God but surely the families 00:54 that live in the last days are in the greatest 00:57 jeopardy, because Jesus himself said, Karen he 01:01 said, look out for the last days because there 01:05 would be deceptions and these deceptions 01:07 would be done by the devil himself. 01:09 In fact before it would over, the devil would be 01:12 appearing as an angel of light and so I think its 01:15 important that we understand that the 01:17 average person is not going to call it a 01:19 deception, a deception or it wouldn't be a 01:21 deception, right, in other words, 01:23 the deceptions of the last days are going to be 01:25 very, very, like subtle, subtle, they're gonna be 01:28 credible, the devil is going to be telling us 01:32 what we want to hear, itching ears. 01:35 This is the way that the scripture refers to, 01:37 right and so there comes a generation that 01:41 likes to be deceived. I think somewhere in 01:44 Revelation it says that those who are lost are 01:47 the people who tell lies habitually obviously, 01:50 and then it says also the people we lost 01:52 will be those who loved to hear lies. 01:55 And so we live in a kind of a time in which 01:58 the deception is going on and the Christian 02:00 family in the last days must be alert, 02:02 they're really up again, we're really up against 02:04 more than ever before obviously, it's the last 02:07 days, the devil is as a roaring lion, 02:09 seeking who he might devour, he is going 02:11 around angry. How can we think it's anything 02:14 else expect that he has got more that he will try 02:17 to get us with then ever before. 02:19 And of course Jesus said when you talk 02:21 about Him as a roaring lion he doesn't go about 02:23 as, although he is really like a roaring lion, 02:27 he is dressed in sheep's clothes. 02:30 And so he is liable to be going baa. 02:32 Its sounding, he doesn't gonna go roar, 02:34 that's right, he is misrepresenting the truth. 02:38 Anyway in this program we want to talk about, 02:41 we want to talk about talk, we want to talk 02:43 about talking. You always had some 02:44 goodie last night, yes anyway before, 02:47 before I came to the program you brought 02:49 this baby toys this time, this is Elmo they say 02:51 I wouldn't have known this was Elmo 02:53 if somebody had to tell me Karen that this was 02:55 Elmo but anyway I have 8 grandchildren, 03:01 and so I called up my daughter-in-law and 03:06 I said does Megan have any of her dolls that talk 03:10 and you got this one. Elmo talks, you want 03:12 hear him talk, yeah, let's hear him talk. 03:14 "You're Elmo's sweetheart." 03:17 You are. It says, you're Elmo's sweetheart. 03:20 "Elmo loves you." See, isn't that incredible, 03:24 everything you believe him, or is he deceiving you. 03:27 See this is an interesting point that you're 03:29 making Kathy because these days everything talks. 03:33 I was getting on a plane not long ago and the 03:36 pilot was testing the systems, happen to be 03:38 sitting up towards the front and he must have 03:40 been hitting buttons because I heard a voice 03:42 inside say, your right engine is on fire and he 03:44 hit another button says your left engine is on fire. 03:46 Obviously it wasn't, we weren't off the ground, 03:48 but I guess what we're saying is everything is 03:49 talking these days. You lift up a telephone 03:52 a voice will you know start talking to you, 03:54 its nobody, it's a computer chip, right, 03:57 or its, its Elmo and so we want to talk about 04:05 talking and so I looked at some stats Karen and 04:10 can I share these stats, okay, and here they are. 04:13 The Oxford English dictionary and obvious 04:16 the people who are listening to us speak 04:18 English but surely the program is coming 04:21 down with other languages but we're 04:23 gonna speak about the English language and 04:25 this says the Oxford English dictionary 04:28 contains some 290,000 entries with 616,000 04:36 word forms. And it says, how many of 04:39 them do you know, now listen to this and you 04:41 will find out how many you know. 04:44 It says there are about 200,000 words in 04:46 everyday use, now here where we separate the 04:50 men from the boys, the girls from the women. 04:52 An educated person, well, he has a 04:56 vocabulary of about 20,000 words and uses 05:00 about 2000 words in a week's conversation 05:06 and then I written down here each word has a 05:08 meaning on which we would understand 05:11 though the meaning may vary by usage, 05:14 and anyway the point that we want to discuss 05:18 because it has a bearing is that although we 05:21 speak in body language you know and we write 05:24 each other letters, mostly we communicate in 05:27 words and how important it is then that 05:30 as Christians we in the last days you learn how, 05:35 make our words be more meaningful and be 05:38 very understandable, appropriate, 05:41 and appropriate and for Christians to speak 05:44 with Kings English is that lost, you ever hear that 05:48 anymore, you ever heard anybody saying 05:49 the Kings English, what King are we talking about. 05:53 That's a good question Karen this is too old for 05:57 you, thank you and she feel so complimented, 06:03 but I can't remember in my lifetime I think we 06:08 always had a Queen. We might had a King in 06:10 England but anyway they talked about 06:13 English Karen as the Kings English and so 06:16 I heard a good one, one time where a fellow in 06:18 Brooklyn, because you mentioned the Kings English. 06:21 A fellow in Brooklyn was listening to the 06:22 radio and the King of England, England had a 06:24 King in those days was giving a radio 06:26 broadcast, it was being broadcast 06:28 internationally and of course you the English 06:31 people have their accent so this person from 06:33 Brooklyn is listening to this what is this and so 06:36 the Brooklyn person said I don't know who 06:39 that guy is but he surely does murdered the 06:40 Kings English, he was the King, he was the 06:43 King himself, I don't know who that guy is 06:45 but he surely murdered the Kings English. 06:48 Anyway, anyway, I'm not sure what to say 06:51 about that, I don't think there is anyway, 06:54 I guess it's a point of prospective. 06:58 I've a little granddaughter named 07:02 Megan and she is gonna be four, that you get it 07:06 right, you know the little boy Evan Michael 07:08 he is a year and half, is he starting to talk yet 07:12 any, yeah he actually started talking, 07:16 saying words sooner than most boys, 07:19 usually girls are the one's that speak sooner, 07:21 is that so, yes they do, but he's his mother's 07:24 son, so what's that suppose to me, 07:28 what he says, and so he is saying little words 07:34 even at his age. Yeah, well I can 07:37 remember one thing that was very important 07:39 to me was as he was growing and hearing us, 07:43 my husband and I speak to him that we would be 07:46 using language that was very clear, 07:49 I grew up in an age where bad meant good 07:53 and sick meant cruel and so, yeah it can be 07:57 very confusing and I wanted to just be very 08:00 clear enunciate words very clearly, 08:04 we can be very sloppy in the way. 08:06 What were some of the words that you thought 08:08 I'm just well I think you learned, clothing 08:10 like the word clothing, when we say in the 08:13 short term its cloths, sounds like close the 08:15 door, I'm putting on my cloths, its not proper, 08:19 its and I don't know if the phonetical but it just 08:22 seems proper to me when I want to speak 08:24 clear and proper English well, 08:26 it would be it came from desires, 08:28 to just not necessarily because the word close 08:31 is anything particularly important but, no, 08:33 that's one that you remember is because 08:36 you wanted to speak clearly to your son. 08:37 Because I came from a background where 08:39 everything was just like I mean my son as a 08:44 child would not understand what I was 08:46 saying if I spoke to him the way I did while 08:47 I was in high school. Just kind of slang, slang 08:50 oh that was bad and my mother said what you 08:53 mean by that, well that means good, 08:55 so I just wanted something different, 08:58 I wanted something more proper and 09:00 I wanted to allow myself to feel more 09:05 educated coming from the background I did, 09:07 it helped, it enabled me to feel more proper and 09:11 to change your language, to change my language. 09:13 Well she is saying is something that's 09:15 interesting Kathy because though she had 09:18 a son she was just talking anyway that 09:21 you know what would occur and so suddenly 09:24 she realized it now she is teaching her own son 09:27 to speak and suddenly she says I don't think 09:29 I want him to sound like me. 09:31 It's amazing what will motivate us, 09:32 and so he is learning to talk, he says little 09:36 words, does he says daddy and mama, yeah, 09:39 yes, he says daddy and mommy his first words 09:42 were hot, does he say no, is he into no or, 09:47 well yes he has, yes he has but we are trying to, 09:51 we're trying to keep his, okay come out with it, 09:56 we are trying to make sure that he says it for 09:58 in an appropriate time, that's interesting, 10:00 then he start being rebellious and that's right. 10:02 But of course I think that this is one of the 10:04 easier words because I remember Megan she 10:07 didn't learn yes for a long, long time. 10:09 I don't know whether yes is harder to 10:12 pronounce, well there might be something 10:13 behind that, and so they experiment with that 10:15 no, its kind of an expression of their, 10:18 after all no is an expression of the will 10:20 while yes is an ascent, yes, yes, so when I say 10:23 no I'm expressing myself when I say yes 10:26 I'm letting you express yourself. 10:28 I never thought of that, I never either, 10:30 that's another profound thing you come out with. 10:33 Now what about your own children Sarah and 10:36 Rachel you remember when they began to talk. 10:37 Well yes I do and Sarah was much like 10:40 that, Rachel was a little more like Evans, Evans 10:43 right now is not really clear for him, no, 10:46 but he has quite a vocabulary, if you 10:49 know what he is saying there are many words 10:51 and he is only 18 months old but he 10:53 started at 14 months or so, 10 months is it hot, 10:57 and then I taught them to do sign language but 11:00 I remember that Rachel we had to have Sarah 11:03 interpret for her for all of us to really 11:05 understand but Sarah started saying sentences 11:08 when she started talking. Is that so, yes it is and 11:11 she was quite young and her words were 11:15 very clear. She was all, she enunciated very 11:17 well I don't understand how she did it but she 11:20 did it. Coming from the old Southern woman 11:22 here I don't understand how she did it but, 11:25 I gotta tell you this Karen this is crazy and 11:27 a little off the subject because we're talking 11:28 about and I thought about my grandchildren 11:31 at the stage she is talking about her girls 11:33 when they were little of course my youngest is 11:37 four months old, my youngest, he is a grand 11:39 you know a little boy and of course Megan is 11:42 his sister and so I heard this joke, its so crazy 11:45 and so I called you know I called my 11:47 daughter in law I say and she will say hello, 11:50 and I'll say this is dad may I speak to Ryan 11:52 please and so this is our liberality but dad Ryan 11:56 is only four months that's okay I'll wait, 12:00 but anyway Ryan gonna, Ryan is going 12:02 to, Ryan's going to say grandpa one day, 12:05 some day because its been so much fun for 12:08 me as a grandpa and I of course I can't say 12:10 enough about being a grandpa and I should 12:12 put a little commercial her for us grandmas and 12:14 grandpas, anyway you know somewhere along 12:17 the line my grandchildren began to call me 12:20 grandpa honey, grandpa honey, you like that, 12:23 yeah, grandpa honey, now sometimes they'll 12:27 say pop or you know these different words 12:29 papa or something but I'm grandpa but I'm 12:32 grandpa honey and I've a grandson and he's 12:36 some 16 or something 17 and of course he is 12:39 on the computer and so you know when we're 12:41 doing this what they call it this really, 12:43 you know I don't I'm not old that, I forget 12:45 you know when somebody is on the air 12:47 it will tell you that somebody is on the air 12:49 and suddenly I'll be on the computer, oh! 12:50 Instant messaging, instant messaging and 12:52 so I typing along and suddenly there is a pop 12:54 on and Bucky is on the air and a little window 12:57 come on, hi honey, so I'm grandpa honey, 13:01 and for a 17 year old that's kind of nice, 13:03 I like that very much and I think. 13:09 And I think our little girl in those days, 13:11 Cindy, I think she talked pretty soon too, 13:14 I kind of wonder if the first child doesn't start 13:17 talking because you're talking to them more 13:19 and very possible if and then the others just sort 13:22 of acted out and the older one's interrupt, 13:25 well they have a lot more interaction with 13:26 the other children in the family and probably 13:31 less interaction with the parents. 13:33 And no anyway its you know the memories and 13:36 of course we all learned to talk I remember 13:38 Karen speaking and learning to talk, 13:41 you think you know how to talk, 13:43 go to another country where they speak 13:44 another language and you find out you don't, why? 13:49 Why do you think so, you speak Spanish? 13:51 No, oh! That's what I talking about, 13:54 you know I was 32 when we went to South America 13:59 and I has studied Spanish in high school 14:01 but you know how that is when you study in the 14:03 high school you neve really catch on unless 14:06 you're a good A student which I must not have 14:08 been, and then they call, well you need to be 14:11 immersed in the culture, that's it see and 14:13 I remember landing down there in South 14:15 America and suddenly you know due respects 14:19 I'm fully fluent in Spanish now but when 14:22 you hit the foreign countries you know 14:23 foreign to us but these languages sounds like, 14:26 I know its such speed and all its going so fast 14:30 you can't tell one word from the next, 14:33 I know, you think you can talk suddenly your 14:35 gift of speech is wiped out. 14:39 I can remember Karen when I was down there 14:42 I used to pray oh! God you are the one that 14:44 confused the languages. Yeah, yeah, can't you 14:47 do me a favor and help me out this and he gave 14:50 me the gift, the gift, really you learned 14:52 quickly, it took me a year to unwrap it. 14:56 I think you have to see what you have, 14:58 I left the gift and unwrap it, 14:59 it took a while for you to learn, oh yeah, 15:01 yeah it really did and but, but I look back on 15:04 it and I feel so shall I say ashamed, 15:07 Karen I took my kids and put them in Spanish 15:09 school and we're talking about a girl 12 years old 15:14 and you know how sensitive you would be 15:15 and your landed in, you couldn't speak it all, 15:19 well but they learned, they learned to speak 15:22 Spanish fluently and the thing I think that this 15:25 is the thing that is amazing with Evan, 15:28 Karen is that he is learning to speak a 15:31 language and he is never asking what the 15:32 word means. See when I went down to learn 15:35 Spanish, interesting, I had to do every word, 15:37 every word, what does that mean, what does 15:39 this mean and, for you to relate, when you 15:42 learn a foreign language as an adult you have to 15:45 trade word for word, yes okay, but here when 15:47 we're little people and we're learning a 15:49 language by listening, we never ask what 15:52 anything means we just hear it duplicate it, 15:55 pretty soon we build a concept 15:57 its an amazing thing. Well this is, this has 16:00 meaning doesn't it what you're doing here? 16:02 This is a warmup, it's the warmup, you better 16:05 get rid of this, before the program is over, 16:08 yes exactly, well I think, I think what we 16:10 are saying is simply that words are what life's 16:14 about and that we all learned to speak one of 16:18 the great probabilities, one of the great 16:20 miracles of development is learning to speak. 16:22 Well you know a moment ago you talking 16:24 about that your children being immersed in that 16:26 when we were in Russia, Sarah and 16:28 Rachel learned it of course much quicker 16:30 they were 14 and 9 but they were immersed 16:33 with the young people and Rachel, 16:36 no Sarah was working in the kitchen and they 16:40 would help here pronounce everything 16:42 correctly, the throat, the mouth, the tongue, 16:46 everything and it was important to her to 16:47 speak their language very accurately, so, 16:51 and with the accent just pronounce it as close to 16:55 what they pronounced it as possible and I think 16:59 that in our language here that we ought to 17:02 think about that and well the way I would 17:05 relate that is how should we talk as 17:09 Christians, shouldn't it be as 17:12 accurate and clear as possible. 17:15 You know, Amen, someone said that if 17:18 you want to make it impossible for your 17:20 enemy to convey his ideology takeover his 17:23 language and I guess because see, we got to 17:28 make some spiritual obligation 17:29 of this obviously. I think the devil is 17:33 trying to scramble our language, yes, yes, 17:36 he is trying to scramble our language, and 17:38 reduce it, and reduce it because I mean what do 17:41 we have, we have 20,000 words we are 17:43 supposed to know we speak 2000 but 17:46 especially the young people that you know 17:47 they don't need 2000 words, you were telling 17:50 us some of these, no, no when I was in high 17:52 school I knew about 10 and I can get by what 17:54 everything I needed and that's not a joke, 17:56 really it's a honest truth. You know when I was 17:58 just sitting here thinking and had a real 17:59 revelation I can remember a situation 18:02 where I was living and I met a gentleman there 18:06 he was older than me but he was a Spanish 18:08 gentleman he was Hispanic so he was 18:10 from Mexico so the Spanish that he learned 18:12 was a different dialect then it is in Spain. 18:16 Spanish is one language however and when its 18:19 proper Spanish all that speaks Spanish no 18:21 matter if you are from Mexico, from Spain 18:23 should be able to understand South 18:24 America you know, he could not there is 18:27 a channel on, excuse me on local television 18:30 a Spanish channel and its lots of Spaniards, 18:33 proper Spanish he couldn't understand a 18:36 lot of it, he couldn't understand that 18:37 because, he could not understand a lot of it 18:39 and I thought with the language that's going on 18:42 with young people today are we going to 18:43 be able to understand for Lord when he returns. 18:46 It's the language that you speak is Christians, 18:47 yeah because its so different 18:50 I mean if I go up to someone and say 18:52 oh! I feel sick, they gonna think right on, 18:54 I mean but I'm no get me to hospital you 18:57 cannot understand what I'm saying, that's good. 19:01 You know have you wondered about this 19:02 that the words about of our Lord when he said 19:06 lets your yay be yay and your nay be nay. Yes. 19:08 What does that really mean? 19:09 What does it mean, does it mean in our 19:12 conversation and should we care, in our 19:13 conversation, yes, yes, no, no, no, yes, yes, yes, 19:19 I think it means what Karen is bringing out 19:22 that we should as Christians in the last 19:24 days we should be able to express what we 19:27 need and we should be able to do rather 19:30 accurately, clearly, so that it can't be confused, 19:33 speaking of languages not obviously in 19:36 English there is lots of accent and Spanish 19:39 I gonna put in a little you know plug for 19:40 Spanish, it's 23 countries that speaks 19:43 Spanish and they obviously have their 19:46 accents and even their regional variations just 19:48 like we do in English but I think you know 19:50 the point that she is making is that there 19:53 must be, I know an illustration of it 19:56 the Voice of America, the Voice of America 19:59 I remember when I used to listen to that speaks 20:01 in many languages but it speaks what you are 20:03 trying to express a clear down the middle of the 20:06 road language, that everyone should be able 20:08 to understand, everyone understands, its and 20:09 English doesn't sound like Texas, it doesn't 20:11 sound like New England but the people 20:14 in Texas and New England can understand 20:16 it and do the same way with Spanish. 20:17 Well another word, well you said only text back 20:21 ten words, well and I was telling you when 20:24 we were discussing this that the pads in our 20:26 brain for three different words are to be three 20:29 deep pads in our brain because those are the 20:30 only words we use, yeah, and one of the 20:34 words that seems to be so used today and I've 20:38 purposely chosen not to use it unless I'm truly 20:42 expressing what it means, who said, and 20:44 that's awesome. I don't want to do that because 20:48 to me if its awe-filled, awesome, full of awe 20:55 then it out to be describing something 20:56 the truly is like that and not just like dinner 21:01 tonight necessarily, I don't, I just don't think 21:05 that it should be used with just anything and 21:08 you were talking about one if God is, you know 21:10 I was in a Bible book store one time and 21:14 of course we talk about God being awesome, 21:15 he is an awesome God there's even a song 21:16 awesome about that, and that is that, 21:17 well but God is awesome, God is awesome 21:19 well here at the checkout counter they 21:21 were selling ballpoint pens and they said they 21:24 were awesome and then right away I had click in 21:25 my head I may have to choose, how can I be 21:29 calling ballpoint pens describing them as 21:31 I describe God something got to go, 21:33 God can't be compared with a ballpoint pen 21:36 and I think that's what I hear you saying, what, 21:38 that we're shrinking, Karen is saying we're 21:40 shrinking our vocabulary to the point 21:43 where, remember we were in another 21:46 program we were talking about a blurring 21:48 the difference between the sacred and the profane. 21:49 Yes. I don't know how you ladies feel but 21:53 I think we ought to have words that are so set 21:56 aside as you're saying. I don't think we are to 21:59 use just every word in a vocabulary to talk about 22:01 God, that's what you are saying. 22:03 Well we're not trying to just be picky here 22:06 either, we're not just picking apart a few 22:08 words that youth use but it's important for us 22:12 isn't it to be careful about the words we use 22:16 because we're reducing our thoughts of God 22:20 when we describe the merest thing that echo 22:24 with God. I think this is the point and also there 22:27 is I don't even know if I can say on this program 22:29 and I hope that those who are watching 22:31 wouldn't be offended but I remember my 22:33 mother wouldn't let me say that because she 22:38 said that's connected with another word, yes, 22:41 and she wouldn't let me say G because she 22:43 thought was a short form, well I remember 22:45 learning that in a dictionary 22:46 that's an expletive. And so, now these days 22:50 I don't say if they particularly worry about 22:52 it because I'll hear people say you know 22:54 even little children in church say oh! God this 22:57 or that, and I don't think they mean anything by 23:00 it, it's just that is all become, just this it's all 23:04 the same and the name of God is no longer 23:05 reinvent. Its no longer, and we have all these 23:07 slang expressions, while growing up I mean my 23:10 mother didn't really ever have a problem 23:14 with certain words that I would say but 23:16 I always knew and I'm not sure how I knew but 23:19 I always knew somehow that Gosh 23:21 meant God, yes, yes, it was just a part we're 23:23 saying it, yes, and when I was in high school if 23:25 I didn't want to curse on to a teacher I would say 23:27 things like shoot, that's it, there you are, 23:30 you know and to me as a 16 year old just a 23:32 substitute, it was just a substitute. 23:35 And so you know I understood that without 23:38 really being told I knew that as a young person 23:42 that's what I was meaning but it was 23:45 sugar coated, yes, right. And so we as Christians, 23:49 raise Christian families need to be helping our 23:52 little ones, helping each other and keeping God 23:55 on ourselves as to how we use our language so 23:58 that we don't reduce God to nothing and that 24:01 we keep a level of reverence because we're 24:05 portraying someone. We're portraying the 24:07 highest to the world that is what we need to think 24:10 of ourselves as ambassadors for the 24:12 Lord and as ambassadors 24:14 we need to have Kings English. 24:16 I do remember going back to learning a 24:18 foreign language obviously there is that 24:22 international Spanish like there is an 24:24 international English but there are these 24:27 regional words and I didn't know it because 24:30 I learned to speak Spanish in Chile and 24:33 you know there were words, I think we call 24:35 them slang words, I think we are talking 24:37 about slang, yes, there were slang words that 24:39 in Chile were perfectly acceptable, everybody 24:43 knew what it was that same slang word in 24:47 Puerto Rico or in Cuba was a dirty word, 24:50 a dirty word. So what happened, and so 24:53 I think this goes back to what we're talking 24:55 about that we can't speak our languages, 24:58 down the middle, we can speak them purely, 25:01 I don't think we need to know all that and this 25:03 what I hear you saying Karen, we don't need to 25:06 know all the latest you know buzz language or 25:09 whatever it is to say all the slang, to say, 25:11 see how few words we can say. 25:13 As Christians in the last days we need to 25:15 elevate our conversation. Now don't let me 25:20 interrupt you, no you're not, I just thought 25:22 Karen was going to get jump in here but not. 25:27 It was important to me especially to come 25:29 away from the background that I had 25:30 to change now just my friends you know there 25:32 is society even tells you and programs that help 25:36 you come out of the drug addictions or 25:38 alcoholism or certain you know crime or 25:41 thievery or trying to read we, 25:47 trying to re-pat on a person's brain, they say 25:49 well don't hang around with your old friends 25:51 and don't go to these old places that get you 25:54 to wanna do this, well. And if they learned 25:56 that's the best thing to do. 25:58 Well, I think you know I learned about 26:01 reciprocal influence from Dr. Jay Sloop, 26:02 where I'm from in Yakima, and I started 26:05 thinking to myself if I want to change the way 26:06 I think I should really start think about the 26:09 way I speak, yes, very good, because I'm 26:11 hearing everything I say, yes. 26:14 And so in the last days the Christian is 26:17 sensitive to the way he speaks because the 26:20 devil knows that if he can take over our 26:23 language or he can make it impossible for 26:26 us to convey the message and when we 26:28 get to the place where we have to use, 26:31 you know sometimes they even thought of the 26:32 word love, we talk about we love this, 26:36 you know I don't want to give all the 26:37 illustrations, but one of these days it could get 26:39 so bad that we say God is love and he could say 26:42 not if that's what you mean. 26:43 Yeah, right, right, the word love could 26:46 become so corrupted, so we have to have 26:49 words that we use for the that which is holy 26:53 and that gives us again the hierarchy. 26:55 There is the common in the, common and the 26:59 scared, the scared and the profane, the scared 27:01 and the profane I think is what I'm looking for 27:03 yes, yes, and so in the last days well anyway 27:05 Elmo we didn't know that Elmo would take us 27:08 there, technology develops, in next 27:09 program we'll talk about that more. 27:11 No not at all, but may be we can put a text 27:13 whether we eat or drink or what ever we do 27:14 including the way we talk, right, we would do 27:16 it then to the glory of God, to the glory of 27:18 God, yes and that we need to that. 27:21 Well I want to thank you for being back 27:23 again and Karen thanks for being on to, 27:25 thank you for having me, I like your ideas and the 27:27 things that you come up with and I hope that the 27:30 people that are viewing will appreciate it as well. 27:34 Maybe we can give a little thought to all that's 27:37 happening here and think about our language. 27:40 Join us again on Thinking About Home 27:42 and pray for us we're gonna pray for you. 27:45 Heavenly Father, Lord, we pray that you 27:47 sensitize us to our words, that whether 27:51 we eat or drink or whatever we doing in 27:54 the words that we use that these would be to 27:57 your honor Lord. We wanna glorify you. |
