| 0:32.0 | Others isn't in the zone. |
| 0:33.0 | I'll give somebody shout and give our God praise, because the truth is empty, our God is in control, and our God is what He lives. |
| 1:03.0 | God, please just understand, I'm not coming to you out of frustration. It's just more out of confusion. I mean, I'm a sinner. I mean, I've done things that I know I'm not proud of. |
| 1:25.0 | I mean, you seem to get my worst. Why would you want to use someone like me? |
| 1:33.0 | Well, I'm so glad to have all of you with us for the fourth and the final week of the series called Why. |
