Man, am I glad that I am not doing the dating app thing?
Man? That would be miserable. I've been looking at some articles and media
about this, and it really is this gosh, this emptiness of endless choice,
and this emptiness of fake relationships, and this emptiness of fake connections.
And I know there's people who do this, and I'm friends of mine who
do this, and it is sort of sometimes out of a sense of desperation.
How do you find someone, particularly friends of mine who are my age,
doing this and I really feel for him. I want to talk about
this as well as the most surprising thing happened. It turns out that the
Bible has things to say about being a parent, and it turns out that's
right. We'll get to that. We'll start with a little bit of a
political update. I don't know about you, but I am a little tired
of the Biden dementia thing. But I do want you to see things.
It's a side by side comparison of how the figureheads people are presenting him versus
how President Trump's being presented. I do find the juxtaposition a fascinating thing.
We'll get started with the help of Bulwark Capital Management Zach is another of his
free live webinars coming up, Got to Know Your Risk Radio dot com,
and we'll get started as well. With the help of God Almighty. The
Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by big pharma, technocrarats and tyrants
everywhere. Now from the high mountains of Free America, here's the Emerald City
exile cod Herman. Today is a day the Lord has made, and these
are the times to which God has decided we shall live. There is an
absolutely the kind of funny anti Trump, A big ad for Biden. He's
he's a guy goes out and gets it done. It's impressive. Oh,
by the way, if you're not watching the video service, you don't get
to see him put on his cool pilot operator shades. A lot of progress
because of all of you. But there's more to do. Over and over
they count him out and over and over. Joe Biden delivers. He's been
doing it for fifty years. Yeah, he's been around. He has the
experience. He's doing the work, straight backed and proud like his generations.
Don't brad really rich, don't make excuses, don't be a smartass, just
make the tough decisions for the good of the country, and Joe Know's loss
the kind of loss that burned a commitment in his soul to do whatever it
takes to protect the lives of all Americans. I've been in this fight for
a long time, but I'll never give Donald Trump never delivered for America.
He only spewed a chorus of deep division and crafted accessful of corruption to benefit
only himself. I did one to buy eleven love. In just under three
years, Joe Biden has delivered unlike any president in modern history. I mean
master class in terms of delivering results and folks, we're just getting started the
American Rescue Plan, which provide a relief his support directly to work a class
family. We're investing in America and I rode great sports, airports, clean
water, high speed internet. It's so much more. Children should have the
right to go to school. Love being shutting down in a war. Wall
Street didn't go the coutry the middle class go La Couttony and unions hit the
middle class. You'd play some reduction act. Biggest investment in fighting climate change
anywhere in the history of the world. We can us present Biden to fight
for t shaking your heads with silky a dictator to lead America for another four
years and finish the job, because we know Biden always delivers. Man,
this is probably a colleague to give me one thing, one that I can
go campaign on and say we did what. Of course, that's ship Roy
pointing out that they didn't do one thing they could have done and would have
done with a second president Trump term. It is a parallel universe in which
we live. It couldn't be more clear. Get to a second what President
Trump is presenting, and it has to do with one of the topics I'm
not allowed to talk about on YouTube. I'm not allowed to talk about health
on YouTube, not in the way we talk about it. Maybe sugar,
but I'm actually, honestly don't think I should even do that because I think
I'll get a strike on that, and I already have one of three strikes
on YouTube and we've only been reinvesting for about four months. I will talk
about this, the health of having a home you're comfortable and having people in.
Honest question, if you're a pet owner, do you ever shy away
from having people in your house? If you're a cigarette smoker, do you
ever shy away from that. Do you have a business that you just sometimes
there are bad smells in the business. For instance, I have a friend
of mine who does a granite business, and he is the neatest, most
meticulous, well kept human as a male I've ever known. He is absolutely,
absolutely, always clean, and yet his business has a lot of moving
parts, and sometimes he has to go out and do stinky things. I've
even met with them. Oh gosh, I gotta change before we go to
lunch. Okay, you can have these circumstances. You can say a dorm
room, maybe you've got a pig of a roommate in the dorm room,
remember your kid does, or in the military break Sometimes things can't be clean.
Football camps sometimes they stink to high Heaven. Even when you're with a
family out in the cabin. Everybody's sweating in the sun and coming off and
swimming and taking this and that towel off, and it doesn't always smell great
in all those instances. Use the edenpeer oxy Leaf two Thunderstorm device. I
can get you three of these devices for under two hundred dollars. That's a
two one hundred dollars savings. We use it in the studio. I use
it at home. I have friends now using it in their businesses. It
doesn't filter air. Those things are loud. It's a swindle because you have
to buy the filters for two hundred to founder bucks every single year. This
is an air purifier. It produces ozone that goes out into the room and
it neutralizes the molecules that cause bad smells. They're gone, replaced with the
pleasant smell of after a thunderstorm. Go to etenpuredeals dot com use code tod

That was the way the Democrats are presenting Donald Trump, at least some are
presenting Joe Biden, at least some of them. This is how President Trump
is choosing to be presented in this case, talking about a topic we're not
to discuss on YouTube, but we can talk about it here. In recent
decades, there has been an unexplained and alarming growth in the prevalence of chronic
illnesses and health problems, especially in children. We've seen a stunning rise in
autism autoimmune disorders, obesity, infertility, serious allergies, and respiratory challenges.
It's time to ask what is going on? Is it the food that they
eat, the environment that we live in, the over prescription of certain medications.
Is it the toxins and chemicals that are present in our homes? Every
year, we spend hundreds of billions of dollars to treat these chronic problems,
rather than looking at what is causing them in the first place. Too often,
our public health establishment is too close to big pharma, make a lot
of money, Big Farmer, big corporations, and other special interests, and
does not want to ask the tough questions about what is happening to our children's
health. If Big Farmer defrauds American patients and taxpayers, or puts profits above
people, they must be investigated and held accountable. When I'm back in the
White House, I will establish a special presidential Commission of independent minds who are
not bought and paid for by Big Farmer, and I will charge them with
investigating what is causing the decades long increase in chronic illnesses. I understand Big
Farmer. I believe better than anybody else. I know where they're coming from.
And then I will ask them to publish recommendations for how every American child
can have a safe and healthy childhood. This is a conversation that is long
overdue, and it's a conversation that American families deserve. American families have this
conversation, and they must have a leader, a president who can do something
about this problem. And I will do that. I hope that means that
you won't be bringing Johnson and Johnson executives on stage anymore, where they got
booed because you did that, mister President. I hope this means that you
are suggesting that you might even welcome a conversation into the injections from warp speed
the COVID shots. Now. In one way, President Trump here is maybe
attempting to get a little bit ahead of a Bobby Kennedy vote. This there's
going to be people who've gotten undertake what will turn out to be a protest
vote because the Democrats refuse to let Bobby Kennedy on stage. In fact that
the Commission does. He belongs on stage between Trump and Biden, but they're
not going to allow that. Neither of the parties are going to allow an
actual choice. They can't. So the case of President Trump's saying this,
and the juxtaposition between the two, Biden claiming to have gotten things done,
the team claiming that he never fails, he always comes back, and President
Trump presenting this, which one is most relatable to the common voter climate change?
No Zelensky, no Biden. This tough guy standing with the straight back.
No Biden is family man. Maybe to Democrats, President Trump is a
crensader against Big Pharma. Not really, except for this. Trump is the
perfect candidate to actually take that war on if he was properly motivated. If
someone could get to him and say, do you understand what Pharma did to
you? Do you understand what they did your presidency? Do understand the trade
off they made when you accidentally put Tony Fauci in front, in charge of
the country for just a little while it turned out to be about three years.
If he was properly motivated in that way, I think President Trump would
be the perfect guy to dismantle Big Pharma. And if he got right now
made a decision to bring Bobby Kennedy into that role to run that commission a
VP. Bobby's not going to be president. That would be an extraordinary move.
Put him in charge of the National Institute of Health and the CDC and
the FDA, and make him have one goal, and one goal ola to
get pharma out, completely out, and to do away with any of the
rules that allow these people to walk through this revolving door system of Washington,
DC. That would make President Trump a father of a great idea. It
would We recently sat down and had discussion with my friend Tim Krukshank. Tim
is a medical provider. He was a physician's assistant. He was a medic
attached to the seal teams. He was himself a seal and he lived life
as a physician assistant. Afterwards, he heard me. In fact, he
sat right next to me in this same studio. But Tim and I recording,
and I talked to him about Native pathcroll, the omega threes I take,
the only omega threes that have ever made it possible for me to not
take iberprofen and I terred with him the ways that iberfrofin can harm you,
and he nodded everything I said. I said that inflammation is rampant in America.
He nodded. I said, it's usually caused by sugar. Tim said
absolutely. I told him that these iberprof and pills had been taking four at
night, four in the morning, were likely to eventually destroy my liver,
my kidneys, even my blood. And Tim said, yeah, that's all
too common, right, he knows what he's talking about. When I talked
about the omega threes and how they're different. In Native pathcrill number one,
it's wild caught crustaceans. A krill is a crustacean. That form of omega
three is wildly more absorbable than fish based. I think it's about four hundred
percent more, meaning it's that much more potent. It's not just quote just
your liver. It helps with it also helps prevent immune problems. It's sixty
percent more absorbable than vitamin C. My experience with this omega three from Native
pathcrill is it's the only thing that's ever made it possible to fight inflammation.
So that I can stop iberprofen because guess what iberprofon causes inflammation? Ain't that
just like pharma? Yeah, we'll mask the symptoms what we would create more
of the symptoms. You can toss pharma out of your life as well.

blessings in the way of food and water, and of course health general health.
We all have challenges. The Lord has also set up a system of
family governance, and we read about this in Ephesians chapter six, verses one
through four. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is
right. Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment, with
the promise, so that it may go well with you and that you may
enjoy long life on earth. Fathers, do not exasperate your children. Instead
bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Fathers. It's
addressed to fathers in the Bible. There are roles for mothers. It's addressed
in the Bible. Mothers are honored in the Bible. This one specific thing
is addressed to fathers. Surprising then that I can turn to an academic study.
This pointed to by a black academic guy named Anthony Bradley. It says
data black fathers and father figures serve as assets, are sources of family based
social capital and helping their sons to avoid violence and remain safe. But this
is not what the social justice churches, nonprofits ministries provide for low income kids.
And here, in fact is this study is naon and hadden on the
screen. It's from the Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology headline Remain calm, negotiate
or defer, but by all means call me father son communications to keep some
safe from violence, involvement and victimization. Four authors, one lead, three
assistant authors in a peer reviewed study in the abstract states. And let's compare
this to the word of God. The role of fathers in the lives of
young men have been export extensively in the literature Alian Green, Grinnis, Davis,
Clark, Crypt Kupped, Koli, and Midereros. However, black fathers,
particularly those are boys who limited verse circumstances, are often perceived as being
uninvolved or without direct influence on the day to day functioning of their sons.
As black boys attempt to navigate stressful encounters associated with community violence and encounters with
law enforcement. Adequate social capitals should be considered as it relates to the acquisition
of skills needed to remain safe and well being. Additionally, spatial disadvantages would
often contribute to the reproduction of human capital f failures and losses. Confines these
youth within largely contiguous, impoverished neighborhoods and positions byoc is more votable to possible
seduction and or victimization via interpersonal gang community violence. It also increases the likelihood
they will be victims of racial profiling by law enforcement. Black fathers and father
figures are routinely viewed as perpetrators to the violence that their sons may experience within
their neighborhoods. However, fathers that are present are not recognized as assets or
resources to aid their sons in being safe and remaining well being. A pause
for a moment, there were some Republican politicians who made the point that black
fathers should be encouraged to stay home. They made the point that the same
party, as attempting to force Joe Biden down the throats again of Black Americans,
had done everything they could to divorce black fathers from the homes. When
white Republican politicians make this point, it's racist. We live in a culture
that detigrates fathers. After all, they're just useless people who don't know how
to run a laundry machine, or if they do, they end up destroying
it. They can't cook, they can't give their daughter's advice. They certainly
can't help their daughters pick out her dress or brush their hair. And their
sons, I mean, it's just toxic masculinity. Sons need their mamas to
teach them how to be men. That's not what the Bible says. Back
to this report, qualitative pilot findings emerging from seventy two father Son Diades and
the Fathers and Sons Communications Study suggests the black fathers and father figures service assets
or sources of family based social capital and helping their sons to avoid violence and
remain safe. They do so by having difficult conversations related to the pervasive threat
of violence at the hands of their fellow neighborhood and community residents. Pause the
number one cause of death of young black men is young black men, to
the report, reassuring their sons that they're loved and as fathers or father figures,
they're available to help them successfully triumph over such threats to their safety and
by offering key strategies to navigate the nuanced distinction in responding to tense and potentially
violent interactions with gangs and community violence perpetrators, police, and other law enforcement
figures. Since black fathers, who of themselves grown up under adverse circumstances have
likely experienced gang in community violence, police harassment and detention, and are racially
motivated violence, they may function as an asset and protective factor for boy's safety
and well being, in which way sons identifies trustworthy source of information on which
to rely and it closes out in the little beginning of this The abstract fathers
and father figures of black boys who face high rist circumstances provide unique insight into
the experience of being a male living and surviving in the same or similar context.
Findings from their study offer a new perspective on how black father's involvements can
at tributes to the social development of black boys, particularly behavioral adjustments and coping
strategies in the face of biased and or adverse adversarial encounters with peers, community
residents, and law enforcement personnel. Let's boil this down. It's a huge
academic paper. It's a study of studies. It's a meta study. Kids
need their dads. Boys in particular need fathers. The Bible told us that
without a study, fathers, do not exasperate your children. Instead bring them
up in the training and instruction of the Lord. It's very common for studies
to end up coming back to the word of God. The Big Bang theory
is the word of God. God's signing. His work in our DNA comes
back very much to the word of God. He counted our heads, and
our heads are on ahead of the beginning. He knew us from the beginning.
He knit us together in the womb. It always tends to come back
to the word of God, and so will be. I think with the
online dating thing, I mean online bating has been around, but not in
this environment, not in the swipe left, swipe right environment, not in
an environment where neuroscientists help design the dating apps. Do you think the dating
apps are actually designed to get you married? Wouldn't that be like pharma being
designed to get you healthy, wouldn't it? The Bible doesn't give dating advice.
I look through it because we're going to talk about dating apps. The
Bible gives human advice don't lie, don't steal, don't come it, treat
others kindly. It talks about the biblical definition of love. It discusses the
fruits of the spirit. These are ways you can know if people are in
the spirit. There are ways you can make a decision to love as a
choice. One of the things it does not give, though, is where
to go meet a date, probably because in that day that was unnecessary.
People lived in small communities. There were arranged marriages, which sometimes work out
better than you would think. I wouldn't want one, but sometimes they work
out better than you think. In the dating app world, we're to believe
that these apps are created to get you married or to put you into a
happy relationship. Do you think that's true in the world of the endless scroll?
I don't. The Wall Street Journal has done a discussion on how these
apps work. This gentleman says it creates a disparity. The dating apps create
a terrible dynamic for men where a small number of men get all of the
invitations, and that means they can become jerks, They can be rude,
they can date multiple women, and then the women feel men are jerks.
But you've got most of the men are getting no bites, they're getting no
dates, and they feel women are jerks. All they want is you know,
X, Y and Z. So I think the dating apps are one
of the reasons driving the sexes apart. Again, this is just for heterosexual
dating, just driving the sexes apart, making it more difficult to date,
to court, to fall in love, to marry, to have children.
So I think we're going to look back on this and say the dating apps
had all the unintended consequences that are really messing up the romantic lives of gen
Z. So he talks about the small number of men and expanding on that.
Sure, there's the classic good looks whatever that means. Whatever that is,
dark, handsome, tall, big chin, I don't know whatever that
means. But then there's also men who spend a lot of time testing their
come onlines. Oh I'm sorry, they're descriptions, they're photos, they're pictures.
They test what works because their goal is not necessarily to get married.
Their goal is to have a date. So they get better and better at
it because after all, they're getting reps, they're getting clicks, and as
they get more clicks, they can refine this down. They're just doing digital
marketing. It's just creating a digital marketing funnel. So they turned it into
a job. My job is a body count, My device is an app.
I'm not saying there aren't women who do this. I'm sure there are
women who do this. But the men who are doing this end up dominating
the demand psycho in the apps. And yes, then this happens that the
women meet them and go, oh my gosh, the man of my dreams.
And then he ghosts me, turns the app off. I never hear
from him again. It blocks me. That's one dynamic, But there's also
this dynamic, the lack of organics. Now, if you think again in
biblical times, I can't imagine why the book doesn't give dating advice. It
gives discernment advice. Who are you looking for? Well, of course you
can go to the Psalm nineteen woman. That's a absolutely well, let's say,
aspirational goal of what a woman should be, aspirational in that few can
ever reach it, if any. But that's one guide. But you also
look at the nature of biblical love. It's not boastful it's not proud,
it's not self seeking or self serving. It's not angry or jealous. You
look at the fruit of the spirit. It's peaceful, it's tolerant, it's
joyful, it's not prideful. It gives people time, It listens. Paraphrasing
it bit. But if you take the Bible for these examples then and put
yourself back into an organic circumstance, you do not have the tyranny of endless
choice, which we'll talk about in the moment, or the emptiness of endless
choice. You have something else. You have observation in the real world.
You have an opportunity to see how others treat their communities. You have an
opportunity to observe a person around folks who can't do anything for them or in
times of stress, community stress, or otherwise across a long period of time.
You have an opportunity to watch people grow, change and see what doesn't
change, what says at their core. See, the dating app doesn't provide
any that it can't it's not its design. It's design is money. And
look, I'm a capitalist, but I'm a capitalist who believes that capitalism absent
faith, absent God is just like anything else that absent God, it cannot
return good and lasting fruits. So I think of the biblical times, and
I know that this is an ideal of being in a village and noticing this
woman over here. She's awfully kind to sojourners. I've seen her give of
her own hand to people in need. I see her laugh sometimes. I
see her reach out to people. She's dignified, She's always dignified. I
see her with her elderly mother. I see her helping her, but with
a sense of joy, not duty. I see her father, She respects
him. He told her not to do a thing, and she looked like
she disagreed, but then she agreed. She didn't do the thing. And
you're watching from afar and you're observing. You're taking in characteristics that dating apps
are not designed to show, because, after all, the job is a
clique, not a sense of compassion, not a sense of interest or curiosity
or joy. That has to come organically. It cannot come through an Okay,
you can meet a person, you can then develop those things, but
what did you meet based upon a clique a description. Yes, you can
have phone conversations and texts. My friends who do this. I have two
friends my age who use dating apps because they're one his wife has died,
the other's divorced. They have this experience phone calls, but after the entire
template was set by an app. Now this is a different view. It's
a different view emotionally and from a term of where this guy seems to think
about dating and he seems to be a participant in it, and he admits
to being a little bit addicted to that. We'll get to that the second.
Another thing that happened when we had Tim Krukshankir, my dear friend,
Navy Seal, founder of bone Frog Coffee, is I talked with him about
what healthcare has become. He's deeply disappointed in the healthcare his dear wife,
Liz received the United States before she died. He told me he believes Liz
died from complications from the treatment of cancer, from cancer itself. I tend
to think he's right. There's enormous potential southern or south of the United States
for treating problems that you may have been told might kill you. My friends
at renew Dot Healthcare, they have helped people with catastrophic neurological injuries being paralyzed
hemispherically or otherwise, sometimes things that are eventually life ending. There's also just
the pain. So often in our country, given how we sit and travel
and drive and pack ourselves in the little spaces, people end up with all
sorts of conditions that are coming not from the arm themselves, or the hand
themselves, or the risk themselves, but from the lower lumbar area. You
might have been told, Hey, you're going to have to back surgery,
maybe in fact a discret placement. Can I just ask you to pause?
What does it cost you to go to renew dot Healthcare and get a second
opinion. They use ethically gathered stem cells from placentas and umbilical cords, and
they never touched the other type. In my case, I use a strain
of their cells that are from people who never ever were exposed to the modified
urn injections. These stem cells are so potent that there they take the very
best of those stem cells and they culture them so that in my shoulder.
The last time I was down there, they inserted forty six million stem cells
into my shoulder. Recently twelve million into my ankle. Those cells have massive
potential power. They're building cells they create babies. But these cells have no
assigned role. They will build whatever they're told to build by where they're inserted
in your body, whether it's arthritis or neurological issue, lower lumbar pain,
hip pain, any of this stuff. It costs you absolutely nothing to get
a second opinion from renew If they can help you, they'll tell you.
If they can't, they'll be honest. It's renewed dot Healthcare. Please do
mention that you listen and are watch the podcast. It's renewed dot Healthcare.
This is a different take, not an academic take, not a reporter's take.
It's a participants take. And in this case, I think about the
emptiness of endless choice. I think that there's more single people than there ever
has been in history. And I also think it's easier if you were single
in your late thirties or your forties in nineteen ninety you're sitting at home in
an apartment alone, and for you to find that you have to go to
a bar, and it was harder but also made you, one say,
settle. People at that point were not allowed to be as picky or you
were just like, this is compatible enough. Now there's no settling. There
is no settling for anyone. There's always a better option, something better.
Yeah, And it's so hard to get away from that that I've come to
the realization that do I enjoy being single? Yes? I think you also
get very good at it. Even when you go on a date and it's
satisfied and you have fun, you still go on then app just to see
if maybe there's a chance that there's someone just a little extra more compatible for
you. Man, I can go on a date and I can have one
of the best dates, and you'll still go. But let me look what
you can be, So you can be you know what if I brunette,
yeah, yeah, or you know what, maybe I could find exactly what
I had tonight, but she does eat sushi whatever. You can be so
specific with how picky you want to be. And the fact that you can
be that picky makes me think that we're going to evolve to a point where
we are just building a robot that looks and does what we want it to
do. Evolve. That would be devolving. And I just found this,
It's just occurred to me. It's just listening to that man speak and it
went found the Bible verse Jeremiah, Chapter seventeen, verse nine. The heart
is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick. Who could understand it?
He's speaking there of his heart, isn't he? Or is he speaking of
other body parts? For all? He likes being dating, and sometimes dates
are satisfy. I'm not his judge, God is, but I can discern
some things. You know what's probably really addictive, falling in love or into
infatuation, or curiosity or anticipation. Why would I say probably? I'm thinking
about the endorphins released, you know, that anticipation of a thing, the
dopamine, the serotonin, the others that come to play. I bet that's
addictive, particularly if it never reaches Frucian, Particularly if you never have to
have a fight. You can just have a fantasy. Maybe that fantasy lasts
two or three weeks. This woman is perfect for two or three weeks,
and then there's some signs of strength. In fact, she wanted to have
a serious discussion. I'm let into that. I like being single. I
think it's probably addictive. So you need a new person. Are we going
to go to bed? Are we gonna have sex? If some what's it
going to be like afterwards, what it's going to be like. I bet
that's addictive because the human heart is deceitful above all things. The flesh wants
what the flesh wants. The emptiness of endless choice is this. I go
back to that scenario in that village, imagining this man in biblical times has
observed this kind woman. She's an attractive woman to him. She's respectful of
her parents, she's kind to people around her, she's hardworking, she's diligent,
she is dignified, and they have a conversation. In that first two
to three week period. It might be the same thing. My gosh,
this could be the one. I have this anticipation I'm falling in love.
It's an addictive feeling and then comes reality, because reality always comes. Maybe
she's respectful to her father because he's not always nice. Maybe she's got some
issues. Well so to you. At that point, you are now entering
into something very real. It is this, Can two imperfect people create something
that's excellent or serviceable, or satisfying or long lasting? Sometimes all of those,
sometimes none? And can you stick with that? Now that's the challenge.
That's something that cannot happen in an online dating world. I don't think
it's designed to happen. Would it surprise you if the neurologists and brain sciences
will help design these apps are helping to design something that makes you want to
come back for more? Isn't that what that man just described? A cycle?
I'm bored here, I'll go back to here. So what do you
end up with? You end up with manchild? After all? I like
being single. Now you can be single and not be a manchild or a
girl woman. But when your pursuit is simply the great feeling of will it
happen? Is it happening? What will it be like? The anticipation,
the falling in love without the ever having the risk of being hurt, or
actually needing to in fact negotiate peace with someone you love. Well, then
I think you belong in dating world on April. After all, it appears
to me to own you. Lord. Thank you for reminding us. None
of us ever reach are your true level. We can't. We can seek
perfection and maybe achieve excellence, but what we're really about is trying to become
more like you, or we should be about. Thank you for struggle for
opportunities to win our faith or to practice our faith, and for reminders of
what the role of fathers is in the roles of their kids, particularly their
sons. As we talked about earlier, this is the Todd Hermershew. Please
go, be well, be strong, be kind, and please make every
effort to walk in the light of Christ.
