179
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,479
and a great lion
leads them all to love

180
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,889
and faith and courage.

181
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,319
In the last chapter
of this great story,

182
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,729
written for children just like
me and Mrs. Davis over here,

183
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:40,599
all of the lion's enemies have swept
away his followers except for two,

184
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,280
a bear and a unicorn,

185
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,999
who are trapped in
a cave with the lion.

186
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,999
And because the entrance
to this cave is narrow,

187
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,959
the wave after wave of soldiers
that the evil king sends in

188
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,839
to try and kill them can't do it.

189
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,599
The lion, the bear, the
unicorn, they fight them off.

190
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,199
So finally, the king
sends in a messenger.

191
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,119
He says, "Look,
the one that we really want,

192
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,879
"the one we're interested
in, is that lion.

193
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,368
"Give him up and
the rest of you will live.

194
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,959
"Ah, the unicorn, we're
going to cut his horn off.

195
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,399
"We'll make him pull a cart
for the rest of his life.

196
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,719
"The bear, we're going to
put in chains and shackles,

197
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,679
"make him dance in the circus.

198
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:25,009
"But both of you will live.

199
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,923
"All you have to do
is give up that lion."

200
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,159
Finally, the lion looks at his
friends with that look in his eyes,

201
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,079
"What are you going to do?"

202
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,639
And the bear and the
unicorn, they just smile

203
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,447
and they say, "Of all the
deaths that we could have died,

204
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,602
"this right here is the one
we would have chosen."

205
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,839
But the bear and the
lion and the unicorn,

206
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,239
they weren't looking
for an easy road.

207
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,047
I don't think Jesus was either
when he accepted the cross.

208
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,599
There's a lot of people, they don't
believe that story any more than

209
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,644
the one about the lion,
the bear, and the unicorn.

00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,482
He saw me praying. He saw me

704
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,039
shouting at God.

705
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,879
He saw his mother in another
wing calling friends,

706
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,402
asking them to pray for us. All
the while, he was in surgery.

707
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,527
- Reverend Burpo...
- Todd.

708
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,286
Todd.

709
00:42:43,720 --> 00:42:46,959
Is it unusual for your wife to
call friends in a time of crisis?

710
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,239
(CHUCKLES)

711
00:42:48,240 --> 00:42:49,959
No. No, it's not.

712
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,119
And is it unusual for you to pray?

713
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:53,679
Or become passionate when you do?

714
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,248
No. No. Of course not.
But I know my son.

715
00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,679
And when he talks about heaven,

716
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:03,039
it doesn't sound like
something he's making up.

717
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:04,759
He's very specific. He's four.

718
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,079
And he's extremely smart.

719
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,250
Yes. Both of my kids are.

720
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:10,846
Reverend...

721
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:16,119
Todd, I don't mean to
discount whatever magic it is

722
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:17,839
you derive from all of this,

723
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,279
but there are many explanations,

724
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,482
even for extrasensory knowledge.

725
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,519
Is it really easier
to believe in that

726
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:30,559
or clairvoyance

727
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,039
or telepathy than it is
life after the physical?

728
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:35,730
Believe in miracles?

729
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,085
I've found such concepts
to be a bit circular.

730
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,361
Even before I watched
my husband die.

731
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:47,919
Let me ask you, did you
come here today because

732
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,199
you were wondering about my faith?

733
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,607
Or were you wondering
about your own?

734
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:56,970
Thanks for your time.

735
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:00,971
You're welcome.

an encounter so far

737
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:16,169
beyond your own
experience that it's

738
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,000
irrational?

739
00:44:21,240 --> 00:44:22,680
What then?

742
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,879
- Todd, we're so happy about Colton.
- Thank you.

743
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,527
Thanks. Thank you very much.
See you later. Good.

744
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:01,599
There he is.

745
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,719
- How are you doing, buddy?
- Good. How are you?

746
00:45:03,720 --> 00:45:05,239
How's that Colton doing today?

747
00:45:05,240 --> 00:45:07,568
Is he back to torturing his sister?

748
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,768
Yes. (CHUCKLES)

Well, I am not smart, so you
came to the right guy.

00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:18,199
I know that.

752

see you a little sooner.

Well, I'm your banker.

756
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,119
I didn't come here for a loan.

757
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,479
Not the bank's money, just
from a friend to a friend.

758
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,319
Let me help you out, okay?
Nobody would have to know.

759
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:37,681
I'd know.

I never wanted to be the guy who
stands up there in the pulpit

761
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,399
asking people to give to charity
when all he does is take it.

762
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,959
It's not charity. It's a loan
from a friend to a friend.

763
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,999
I know you need the help.
It's what real people do.

764
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:52,440
I don't.

765
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:56,479
Well, then you didn't come
here for smart advice.

kept your salary in line with

the new members
that you've brought in.

768

I think you deserve a raise.

see what I can do.

770

I didn't come here
for a raise, either.

771
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,719
All right. Good.

772
00:46:10,720 --> 00:46:12,684
I didn't want to ask them.

with a flight attendant

with Barney the dinosaur.

00:47:17,240 --> 00:47:19,841
Is it doubt? Is it questions?

795
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:21,645
I got questions.

Thank you. Thank you, Michael.

Uh, we're just wondering,
how bad was it?

803
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,999
"How bad?" It was awful.

804
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,559
MICHAEL: I mean, a lot of us heard
that Colton died during the operation

805
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,411
and prayers
brought him back to life.

806
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,922
Uh, no, he didn't die
on the operating table.

807
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,119
He, you know, came mighty close,

808
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,210
but I think it was the doctors,

809
00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:09,519
through God and all of your
prayers, that kept him alive

810
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,166
and so thank you all for that.

811
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,199
So, how did you handle it?

812
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:15,639
Not well.

813
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:20,679
But the important thing is that the
Burpos faced a significant challenge

814
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,159

- We used that already.
- No, we did not.

01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:14,079
We did. What are you doing?

1056
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:16,009
No, we did not. We did not.

Yeah, you're good.

We're out of money.

1065
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,729
We're out of credit, too.

1066
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,885
And the church board
called me today.

1067
01:02:59,880 --> 01:03:04,449
They want to sit down with you and
talk about where we're at as a church.

1068
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,409
Why didn't they call me?

1069
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:11,439
I don't think they wanted

1070
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,484
you to think that they were
putting you on the spot.

1071
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:18,159
Because they are
putting you on the spot.

JAY: Todd, we're prepared for you
to have all kinds of struggles,

1073
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,731
and we're here to support
you during those times.

- Twice, right.

So, I think you're aware the church
is not doing very well without you

1077
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:41,400
and so we need to know what to
plan for in the close future.

1078
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:44,239
The question for me isn't
whether you're preaching,

1079
01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,239
it's what you're preaching.

1080
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,399
Colton's trip to heaven
disturbs a lot of people.

1081
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:49,965
It disturbs me.

1082
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:52,079
Do you take it as a literal event?

1083
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,079
Well, for him, it's not imaginary.

1084
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:58,999
It's not a metaphor or
a feeling. It happened.

1085
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:00,519
And I take that seriously.

1086
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:02,839
I just don't know what to
make of it. You know?

1087
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,799
What about it bothers you so much?

1088
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:10,359
What is it? I mean, I want to talk
about it. I need to talk about it.

1089
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,530
All right. I don't
like that it feels like, um,

1090
01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:15,679
some fairy tale,

1091
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:20,119
just a simple, easy explanation
of life. I don't like that.

1092
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,879
Okay. So, because it
appeals to simple people?

1093
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,439
NANCY: No. No. Yeah.

1094
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,959
Okay. I don't like how
it makes our church

1095
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,999
a magnet for everyone who wants to
take the brain out of their head

1096
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:34,439
and beat it to death with the Bible

1097
01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:38,008
and then seem to want to show
off how much they believe.

1098
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,519
Heaven and hell have
always been concepts

1099
01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:45,690
that have been used to
control and frighten people.

1100
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,959
TODD:
That's one way to look at it, but

1101
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,039
all Colton's ever
talked about is heaven

1102
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,050
and how it's a beautiful place.

1103
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:59,525
Todd, what do you
plan on preaching?

1104
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,159
NANCY: All of us have times
when we lose our way.

1105
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:05,479
That's when we look to leaders.

1106
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:06,999
If you're going
to lead this church,

1107
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,521
you've got to make a decision.

1108
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,886
All right. I say that we give
Todd a little bit more time.

1109
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:16,204
One more week.

1110
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,159
But in the meantime,
we need to start planning

1111
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:20,519
for the future of our church

1112
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:22,961

to settle your account today.

1115
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,679
I can't do that today.

1116
01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,679
I had an unforeseen situation.

1117

- WOMAN: You're not going to settle today?
- TODD: Uh, not today.

1118
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:48,079
WOMAN: Well, you are aware that we have
extended your accounts twice already.

1119
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:49,239
TODD:
I think it's been one extension.

1120
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:50,399
WOMAN: No, it's been twice.

1121
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,679
And they are going to
collections as we speak.

1122

is not something that, uh...

of not knowing, Sonja.

1224
01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:39,520
I don't. Everything he tells me,

1225
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:43,761
it hits me, you know?
And I want to believe him.

1226
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:46,919
Okay, I want to believe
him. He's four.

1227
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,719
He's four. He's so innocent,
he can't be making this up,

1228
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,366
but everything he talks
about is impossible.

1229
01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:56,519
It is a massive adventure
that he's created.

1230
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:59,999
He's talking about Jesus,
seeing Jesus' horse.

1231
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,044
He talks about choirs of
angels and my grandfather.

1232
01:14:03,440 --> 01:14:06,839
It would take weeks or days, but,
"For God a day is a thousand years."

1233
01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:08,679
"And a thousand years but a day."

1234
01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:10,119
I'm just saying that's scripture.

1235
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,279
It's scripture. There's no clock.

1236
01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:14,719
There's no clock. Einstein
talks about the same thing.

1237
01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:16,439
"Some reality is beyond time."

1238
01:14:16,440 --> 01:14:18,722
Why can't it just be a mystery?

1239
01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:22,079
Because I think God might be trying
to reach out to us through Colton.

1240
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:23,199
That's what I think.

1241
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:27,199
What Colton is telling us, Todd,
is an echo of every story,

1242
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:30,759
every song, every image he's
seen since he was a child.

1243
01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,850

to be a myth? Why?

where I was the bitter woman
I swore I'd never be,

1279
01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:49,410
I've been thinking.

Was Colton in heaven?

Yes.

1362
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:25,481
He was in the heaven
that God showed him.

1363
01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:29,404
Is heaven real?

1364
01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:31,967
'Cause, if heaven is for real,

1365
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:35,689
we'd all lead different
lives, wouldn't we?

1366
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:39,331
Would we?

1367
01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:44,079
Really? Haven't we
already seen heaven?

1368
01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:49,127
In the first cry of a baby,
the courage of a friend,

1369
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,439
the hands of a nurse

1370
01:25:51,440 --> 01:25:53,759
or a doctor, the love
of a mother or father.

1371
01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:56,279
Haven't we already
had a glimpse of heaven

1372
01:25:56,280 --> 01:26:00,371
and so often chosen the hell

1373
01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:04,444
of hate and fear?

1374
01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:06,919
Is heaven for real?

1375
01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:09,239
Every single one of you
has asked that question.

1376
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,364
All of us have. And
for me, the answer...

1377
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:16,445
It's "yes."

1378
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,169
I see it, so I believe it.

1379
01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:23,679
And what we believe
changes what we perceive.

1380
01:26:23,680 --> 01:26:28,488
And I believe that God, he's love.

1381
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:33,759
Ten thousand times I've been
here and I've talked about

1382
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:35,849
"On earth as it is in heaven."

1383
01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,330
And I don't know that
I ever listened to that.

1384
01:26:42,440 --> 01:26:47,119
And my son, he saw something.
He saw heaven.

1385
01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:49,368
He'll tell you all about Jesus.

1386
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:52,242
How about that name? "Jesus."

1387
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:55,890
Ooh.

1388
01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:57,491
"Jesus."

1389
01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:02,411
It creates so much hope
in so many of you,

1390
01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:05,841
so much distrust in so many others.

1391
01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:08,730
That's okay.

1392
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:12,159
I believe God asked me
to be a pastor.

1393
01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:15,039
Did he insist on my vision
being the same as yours?

1394
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:16,685
Or yours?

1395
01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:22,199
Of course not. Did he make
me one of those heroes like

1396
01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:25,839
that lion and the bear and
unicorn I preached about?

1397
01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:30,045
No. That's what I wanted.
God had a different plan.

1398
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:36,767
God crushed my pride.

1399

He opened my heart

to love.

And all I have to do,

1402
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:05,762
the one thing this love requires

1403
01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:10,645
is that I let others know
they're not alone.

1404

This is incredible.
