All right. So we got some fun.

Just jump in. I was talking to God, right?

And that might sound creepy for some people

who did it's your first time at my church.

Like, you was talking to the Lord.

Like, it wasn't like we were sitting at a table.

Well, we were. I was at a table, actually.

Anyway.

So I asked God, I was like, yo,

what do you want me to say to the people?

What do you want you to tell them that I love them. Like for real.

So you need to receive that. Like, God literally told me to tell you that he loves you. Like,

for real. So I'm excited. The music today was great too. Y'all noticed that. Gateway got some of the

best lip syncing you ever going to find anywhere. Them cast was amazing. I was like, wow, just lines up perfectly. It was great, man. So what I'm going to do basically is I'm going to tell you my story, but I'm going to recap a little bit of my story, and I'm going to pick up with some things that I didn't tell you because the story is still happening. So when I was seven years old, for those on them, when I was seven years old, my grandmother used to force me to go to church and it was miserable. You couldn't laugh at church. It was not the place to laugh. Church was just miserable. One time I laughed, this lady was jumping around and her wig fell off.

Stuff was hysterical. I'm seven years old. I go to this church. Dude is on stage and he is angry at everybody. And I figured he was angry because he had some flim caught in his throat.

Because at the end of every sentence, he would always try to get it out.

He would like, the Lord said, ah, ah!

I'm like, Grandma, he need to gargle or something, Grandma. I don't understand what's going on. He had a Bible in his hand, too. He kept playing like he was going to throw it at people. He'd be like, ha, ah, ah, and everybody would get scared. They'd be like, hey, man, hey, man. I realize now they were saying amen. I didn't know, bro. I was seven years old. All right, fast forward. 14 years old, instead of forced me to go to church, my grandmother did something different. She asked me if I wanted to go. Well, let me back up first. There's probably some people here who you don't really mess around with church too much, because the people were weird, or there's a lot of hypocrites at church. It's true. There's also a lot of hypocrites at Walgreens. They all over the place. Here's what Zig Ziglar said, right? Zig Zig Ziglar was dope. Dude was dope, right? He said, um, let me see if I can give you a visual to go along with this. He said, if you allow a hypocrite to come between you and God,

the hypocrite is actually closer to God than you are.

Anyway, so I'm glad you're here. That's all I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.

So 14 years old, my grandmother first would go to this church, right?

But right around 14, I should say, she gave me an option to go. She was like, would you like to go to church? I was like, no. So I was like, I ain't going to church. I just hung out with my friends. We just hung out and did stuff. We had fun. I remember I wanted an accident figure because we was broke. As kids, we didn't have no money. Like, we had no money. Like, we
