A loving mom walks her son to the school bus stop on his first day. Behave, my sweetie pie. Take good care of yourself and think about your mother, pumpkin. Come right back after school, lemon drop. Your mommy loves you, my honeybee. At the end of the day, she runs to her son and hugs him. What did my angel boy learn on his first day of school? And the boy answers, well, I learned my name's Kevin. That's pretty good, right? Pretty good. All because my mom has all of those things.

Yeah, yeah, right.

Yeah, that's cute.

That's cute.

Nice little back to school.

Thanks.

Trying to tie in and be funny.

It's not easy.

It's so important for me and probably you,

just being a guest to remind myself, stay in learner mode.

If I'm a disciple of Jesus, and I am, I got to learn stuff. I've got to keep learning. There's a debate online, and I want to jump in it. It doesn't even matter what the debate is. Like, there's more than one debate online, actually. It doesn't even matter, but there's one where it's about Jesus and I want to say to one side,

you know what? I used to think like you do. I was sure myself too and now I've learned actually what they're saying as more validity and has higher regard for what Jesus was saying.

But I used to, but just stay and learn remote. Again, there's always things God wants

to show us. Yeah. There's deeper and better. And that's the other thing I've learned, too,

is I've learned things that make Jesus even more impressive in my understanding. More,

deeper, better. It's so good. This this is amazing if you think about it this

Croatian guy this set of record held his breath underwater for 29 minutes okay that's

amazing well yeah I guess you guess well I just don't know why half Half an hour. I understand that I never really understand. I don't know why either, but he's a bigger why. Okay. The record was achieved in a three meter deep pool at the Bristol Hotel in Croatia with five judges and 100 spectators present. That's what I don't get. Why? What all the watching? Yeah. We stood there for

half an hour and looked at how exciting is this you're watching someone not do something.

For 29 minutes like I'm not even going to breathe I want to be there watch that.
