"I don't know, but it was so beautiful." "Oh, you crashed a wedding." "No!" "I just peaked inside." "It's not like I followed them to the reception and chowed down on free shrimp." "And that was the last time you were in a church... peaking in a wedding?" "Yeah." "It was so beautiful." "This is so sad." "Okay, that doesn't count." "You're not Christian or whatever this guy thinks you are." "That website is for real Christians looking for other real Christians." "Do you see the problem here?" "Okay, you are making this a much heavier religious issue than it needs to be, and besides, I think I'm at least 50 percent that kind of Christian anyway." "I'm pretty sure it's either/or, not just a slice of the pie." "Ladies." "Gwyneth, you are up." "Well she's all yours, God help her." "Actually I'd like a few minutes alone with" "Ms. Hayden if I might." "Well then I'll just leave you two to it." "You don't bite, do you?" "Nah." "What do we have here?"

"Sweetie, you're desperate and you're grasping at straws." "You guys, no, stop." "He is fantastic." "I mean isn't this what we've been trying to do... get me a fella and get me hitched?" "My family has been in the construction business for generations." "Papa's papa, he was a big development guy so he sort of turned it into a bigger deal." "Now papa has taken it to a whole 'nother level." "So do you work a lot with your hands?" "Oh no, gosh, I wish." "No, I'm kind of stuck in the office." "Oh, really?" "Doing what?" "Analysis, mostly." "Feasibility reports on potential projects." "Oh, so you basically sniff out the stinkers." "Yeah, I guess that's one way to put it." "Sushi up." "Oh, thank you." "Looks delicious." "Okay." "Dig in." "You're not really a fan of sushi, are you?" "Is it that obvious?" "Yeah." "You know that funny thing you're doing with your nose, your stinker detector?" "It's kind of a dead giveaway." "I mean you look like you just smelled dog poop." "Not really helping the situation here." "Well why didn't you just tell me that?" "Because I kind of wanted to try it." "You know, it's the in thing, right?" "This red one here, this is tuna, and this here, the yellow one, is yellowtail, which is technically a different kind of tuna." "The brown one is eel, and then this orangey, mushy-looking one is uni, which is sea urchin." "It is delicious." "It's my favorite." "Well maybe I'll try that one." "Looks interesting." "You know what?" "On second thought, no." "Let's pass on that." "Sea urchin is not gateway sushi ." "Just take your chopsticks, right, and let's just start right here." "Okay, that'll work." "Here, you can dip it in the soy and... uh huh." "Here it goes." "Mmm." "You are gonna actually have to swallow at some point." "It's coming." "Here it goes." "Oh!" "Not exactly sure what just happened." "You just chewed that poor tuna to death is what happened." "I guess I'm just more of a chili cheese dog kind of guy." "Someone's gonna get hurt." "Do you have any idea what happened at a" "Bible study?" "What?" "to gas." "Got to get away from here fast." "Enemies breathing down my neck and trying to grad a hold and make me wreck." "Hot on my tail trying to make me fail and trying to take the wind up out of my sail." "Trying to roll me off this road ." "Don't look at what's behind." "There you are." "Thought you got lost." "No, no, no." "Here I am." "You look great." "Come in, come in." "Meet everybody." "Everyone, this is Gwyneth, and whatever you do, don't call her Gwinny." "Ah ha ha ha." "Okay, let's see." "First that's Jimmy and Jessie McKenzie." "They're happy newlyweds." "Met on Mingle." "Turned me onto it, praise the Lord." "Praise the Lord." "And this is their beautiful home." "And that's Tommy and Gabby Huntley, who are having a baby." "My belly!" "Praise the Lord." "Indeed." "And that's Kel-Kel." "Hi, hi." "Kelly." "Heck, you want to talk about summer camp stories, we got a few of our own." "Bible camp." "Believe me, it's nothing." "Okay, let me see if I have it." "We have Jimmy and Jessie McKenzie, Tommy and" "Gabby Huntley, who are having a baby in your belly, and summer camp Kelly." "So you should just call me Gwinny." "Really?" "Sure." "This, This place is great." "It's all so inspirational and marriage, marriage that's just, I mean, it actually reminds me of one of my favorites." "Yeah I think the passage is from Galatians." "Because of the temptation to sexual immorality each man should have his own wife and each woman should have her own husband." "You know what, my bad, I think that was" "Corinthians." "Yep that was Corinthians." "So sorry." "Do you have any water?" "Sure." "Thank you." "C'mon." "Hi how ya doing buddy." "I'm sorry, I'm not really good with you people." "Well you seem pretty good with Pauly." "He's just so different." "He's the last of the good ones, that's for sure." "I hope things work out." "I haven't seen him this happy in a while." "Really?" "Well I must be doing something right then." "So great to have everybody back ." "Jessie, Jimmy, thank you guys so much for your hospitality again, once again." "And Gwinny it's just awesome to have you with us." "So, uh let's pick up where we left off last week, Romans 7 we were uh, Verse 14." "Now everybody's familiar with the story of" "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." "You know what I think?" "No, what do you think?" "You should stick to Gwyneth." "Just be you." "Whoever that is." "The trouble is with me for I am all too human, a slave to sin." "Well the pressure's bleeding in ." "Giving me some blurry vision." "Fogging up my intellect." "Where love and hate they intersect." "Keep the path of the mission." "Never going to lose my ambition ." "Got my eyes up on the prize." "Eyes forward." "Don't look at what's behind." "Eyes forward." "Don't take your eyes off the prize." "I told Mom about that raw fish." "Oh you did?" "Boy did she get a kick out of that." "So what's the deal with Kel-Kel ?" "Who?" "Kelly from Bible Study." "Oh that?" "Oh no nothing." "Honestly." "We, she's practically like a sister." "We grew up together, our families." "Although if mama had her way?" "You and Kelly would be about 3 kids and 2 dogs deep right now?" "The barking kind." "oh, the next stop, the deliciou s train." "I like it around here." "It's funky." "Funky spunky." "Okay so I told you I wanted to be a rock star." "So what about you?" "Did you have any other dreams?" "Um... yeah, I always actually wanted to be a teacher." "Wow that's noble." "What happened?" "Well I went to school and graduated and needed a job and looked for a meaningful job and there just wasn't one so I kind of faked my way to a living until I, funny enough, ended up in a line of work where faking it" "is actually part of the job description." "So, how long have you been a believer?" "You know, it's, it's just such a long and, you know, personal story." "Maybe it's for another time if that's okay." "Oh yeah absolutely." "Though you have peaked my curiosity." "You know what they say about curiosity and the cat." "What about you though, if you don't mind me asking?" "No, no not at all." "I was kind of born into it, I guess." "All the men on mama- my mother's side were pastors going back forever." "So, my papa's- my dad's side different story." "He was a crazy kid my dad growing up in the 60's and all." "Drifting through life." "Then as the story goes he was walking on a beach one day, and he came across this piece of driftwood and he saw something in it." "So he took it home and he studied it and he studied it, and he ended up carving a statue of Jesus out of it." "Next thing you know, spirit fills him, changes his life forever." "Just like that." "Lights off, lights on." "Flick of the switch." "Let me get this straight." "You're telling me your dad, who was a drifter as you say, and whose last name happens to be Wood finds a piece of driftwood on the beach and finds Jesus in it and bam, he's born again?" "Wow, I've never seen that angle before." "Are you kidding me?" "It was laying right there." "No seriously!" "Snap!" "That is so creative." "How do you just come up with that all so quickly?" "It's kind of what I do." "Well anyway, my driftwood moment actually happened when I was 13." "I entered the science fair at school and I built this maze for mice to run through." "I had them in 2 cages, the mice ." "In one cage I had flashing red lights and head banging music going 24/7 and in the other one I had soft blue light and classical music." "My hypothesis was that, the mice in the tripped out cage would run the maze faster because they're all hyped up and the mellow mice would just wander through without really caring." "And then right before every run I would give each mouse a sniff of this big chunk of" "Swiss cheese that I had at the end of the maze, their prize." "This is actually me but I'm fascinated, I want to hear more." "Oh, Ok." "It was somewhere in the middle of it all, none of that mattered anymore because I got so fixated on the notion of the cheese." "That prize that both sets of mice had a scent of and ultimately were drawn to." "Each had their own path, but the goal was the same." "Don't tell me you saw Jesus in the cheese." "No, no um.." "But, it reminded me like so much of what I had been doing as a kid." "Searching for something that I had a sense of but couldn't quite put my finger on." "suddenly it all clicked." "The cheese." "Jesus' love was waiting for me." "So that weekend I won the science fair, and found my prize." "A love in Christ." "Well sweet Cheesus." "Sweet Cheese!" "Sweet Cheesus." "You find the funny in everything, don't you?" "I'm sorry." "No I like funny." "The world could definitely use a little funny right now." "Are you happy?" "You know, are you content?" "Yeah I think so." "Wow." "Big question." "I'm happier now that I've met you, that's for sure." "Flatter." "You working overtime for that goodnight kiss?" "No." "Well then no kiss." "Okay." "Are you serious?" "Absolutely." "Wornoutwithblistersonyour feet." "To anyone with a heart that shattered,doingyourbestto holdit together." "with no prayer to pray." "You're not going back to 1950s sweetie you're going to church." "You know I want to scare his parents right out of the gate." "Keep shopping." "I think I can make this work." "Yeah, if you're playing Margaret Thatcher." "Aren't you a little worried about all this pretending." "I'm not pretending I genuinely like him." "I do, and you know what?" "That is so cute I just want to be respectful." "And dressing like Julia Child is being respectful." "Or apparently any other character recently played by Meryl Streep." "Thank You that is so sweet." "Nice to meet you." "What am I doing." "standing at an open door this is your life never live twice step through to the other side" "Gwyneth." "Oh, I'm sorry." "How do you feel about that?" "It's just so big." "Hundred and twenty seven by forty five and sixty three feet closer to the other shore." "Steak and cake." "I'm sorry what?" "How do you feel about steak and cake?" "We're all going there." "Don't tell me you've never had steak and cake." "Oh are you in for a treat." "Amen." "Have you met our Kelly." "I have hi nice to see you again ." "Well alrighty then." "Let's steak and cake it." "Your mother doesn't like me." "What are you talking about of course she does." "She doesn't even know you, and speaking of which is it just me or have you always dressed like my grandma." "I just didn't want to stick out cause sometimes." "She likes you." "I promise you are reading way too much into it." "Paul." "Coming." "Gwyneth we would all be so honored if you would say Grace." "Of course." "Dear Lord, thanks a bunch for new friends." "It's really not often in life that we get such a gift." "People that are just kind and generous, and so thank you and, and for this food golly" "I mean steak and cake it's kind of hard to know which to eat first." "But, I guess it's all going to the same place so we are just very thankful for that." "And, we thank you for the abundance of all of it." "There is just so much, and we thank you for the cows who are willing to give up themselves." "And that this food is going to nourish our bodies, and we really just sit in awesomeness, and really I have a great amount of gratitude." "So, yes Amen." "In Jesus' name Amen." "Oh yes in Jesus' name I mean all of that of course was in Jesus' name Amen." "Alrighty to the almighty lets dig in." "Paul, have you told Gwyneth about our mission trip?" "Yeah, we're just all so blessed and excited last year when we were vacationing on the" "Mayan Riviera." "The Yucatan Peninsula the Caribbean side." "Right." "Well, we took this fantastic day trip to see some of the ancient sites the Mayan pyramids and all." "We came across this beautiful little town called San Luis De Piscopo." "Oh, just a stone's throw from where we were staying." "A stone's throw." "Yeah, well the town is almost in ruins." "Evidently they haven't really recovered since hurricane Wilma struck there." "Three years ago, category 5 just blew this little place to bits." "Grace, let the boy finish." "Sorry." "Well really." "go on." "Really that's it I mean most of the people just, left you know, abandoned the place, sort of just lost their way, gave up." "Faith an all." "That's right." "Door to door we shall restore." "Bill, who needs to hush now?" "Door to door was real good, take a note of that." "Anyway, right there smack in the middle of it their church crumbling, it's symbolic they haven't opened their door since." "The bell literally fell to the ground and that's where it sits." "So tragic." "But, with the help of Papa's company and the good Lord's grace." "We are going to fix it." "Door to door, we shall restore." "Oh yeah." "So, I'm, I'm just curious exactly how long does it take to re-hang a bell?" "Long as it takes." "We will be there till she rings ." "Not a ding or a dong sooner." "Papas got it all pretty keyed in down there." "So, we're thinking maybe a month at most." "Or, until the bell rings." "It's cake time." "I want Chaco Latto, please." "Wait, I'm sorry you're going to Mexico for a month?" "It's going to be awesome." "So wait, when do you leave?" "Like tomorrow, night." "Praise the Lord." "I'm sorry but I, I thought you would have told her." "I was going to, and I should have but, you know we just met and to say that" "I was leaving for so long I, I just..." "I understand, I understand really and honestly I'm sorry that I made things difficult for you." "But, I did think that you wouldn't have told her." "Paul, you know I only want what's best for you." "Of course." "Well, don't you think there is something just a little off about her." "Off?" "Out of place, peculiar." "I mean don't get me wrong." "I'm sure she's a sweet girl and , and I'm sure she means well but." "But what?" "Forgive me, but there is something not genuine going on there." "Alright now there I said it." "How so?" "You really don't see it." "See what?" "Oh sweetie you are just being blinded by love." "I'm really not following here." "Paul, she is hiding something." "No she isn't." "You know what I think?" "I think this is you with all due respect," "Mom stepping in the way." "You like to trying to control the situation." "Please don't do that, not here not this time." "I like Gwyneth I really, really like her and" "I think she's awesome." "Admit it she is a little different, but that's what I like about her." "I think she does mean well and she is genuine, and I'm going to prove it to you." "How is that?" "I don't know but I will." "I'm buying a dog." "Oh well, I mean he was a really nice guy." "He was but, he was kind of goofy." "And between his mama and his papa it probably wouldn't work anyway." "What about a Bulldog?" "Onward and upward." "Onward anyway." "You know I just he would have given me a heads up." "It's so unfair." "Has he tried calling?" "Yeah about a hundred times but I am not answering I'm gonna let him sweat it out." "And they say romance is dead." "There was something about it al l though I gotta say." "Everyone just seemed so happy." "Surprise inspection." "De Bona is here." "He wants to see some ideas now." "I guess he's keeping us on our toes." "But, I..." "No buts!" "Just genius." "Pamela, cup of Joe." "Quick." "Thank you." "I don't know." "Maybe I should start with them, or oh no." "This one." "Yeah, this one right here for sure." "Ok, so this is gonna be a little out there." "So if you kinda just go with me ." "Hang on." "Alright, so we are going to kill baldness with the blue bullet." "Most men I know view their follicly challenged head as a life-long nemesis." "And men being men, they want to destroy the enemy, right?" "So how are we gonna do that?" "We are going to kill it." "That's right." "With a blue bullet." "Right?" "Do you see where I'm going with this?" "You know we can even have, like , a little dispenser, that's actually shaped like a gun." "You know?" "Shoots out the blue bullets, or we could call it the Bald Bullet, even better." "Or just Bullet." "You know, we could get a really good looking bald Steve McQueen-type male model." "You know, Bullet?" "The movie?" "No?" "I'm gonna pass on that." "That's mixed messages and in this current environment." "And with all the gun issues right now." "It's, It's toxic." "Toxic." "Yeah, toxic." "Too toxic." "Okay." "You know what?" "Absolutely." "We are just gonna - shifting gears here." "Going in a whole new different direction." "Ah, literally." "Everyone wants someone to blame for their deficiencies, especially men." "All due respect." "So sorry." "But when men look in the mirror , and you know what?" "Also women." "We cannot forget that there are plenty of bald women out there." "Boy you can say that again." "My mother was bald." "Mamma Debona had alopecia." "Bald as a baby's butt." "Very tragic, very tragic." "What?" "Sorry about that." "Okay." "Yeah so, when we look in the mirror." "I mean when we really see who we are." "Who we really are." "Sometimes we just don't take responsibility for it." "So, we want someone to blame, right?" "And who are we going to blame for our baldness?" "I think naturally we blame the thing that created us." "That's right." "We're going to blame God." "Right up there." "God." "Blaming God." "Looking at God, going 'you know what?" "Why me?" "Why me, God?" "Why me?" "Why can't you just help me God?" "You know what?" "God hears your cries." "He hears your cries of desperation." "And he has mercy because he is a loving God, and he has given us Heaven's Rain." "Heaven's Rain?" "Yes, he made it." "And with a little faith and Heaven's Rain, he can re-make it." "Water." "Wow." "You know what?" "Can't you take a hint?" "Alright, alright." "Hey." "You know, I'm trying to be mad at you." "I think, I think I owe you an apology." "No, you don't." "No, that wasn't the coolest way to tell you" "I was leaving for a while." "Paul, listen." "This is hard to say, but I just don't know if we're really, I mean you are such a sweet guy, you really are, but..." "You should come down here." "What?" "Mexico!" "Come on down." "Gwyneth?" "Yeah, I'm here." "I just, wow." "That's" " I mean, I mean, when?" "Now." "I can't." "I mean I really can't." "I mean we're in the middle of something really huge here at work." "Oh, one second please?" "Heaven's Rain!" "Heaven's Rain!" "God!" "Little blue bullets from a gun?" "What planet are you living on!" "Voodoo guru?" "Listen, you'd better shape up or ship out missy." "I told you not to blow this!" "I'll pay for that." "Are you still there?" "You're on." "Wait please, where are you taking my stuff?" "It's all good." "That's my stuff." "Hey, it's okay." "Welcome to Mexico." "It's all good." "Buenos Dias, stranger!" "Hey!" "Ha ha, there she is!" "Listen, you want something for the trots, just let me know." "I got something for ya." "Great." "So what do you think?" "It's..." "Well" "Buenos Dias senorita!" "It's... awesome." "I kinda packed more beach, sand and surf-ish..." "You're fine." "That works!" "Don't worry." "You look pretty." "Well, I'll just take some vacation time." "I mean I have three years' worth." "I have worked through every holiday known to man to make these deadlines." "He owes me." "You're in Mexico?" "On a mission trip?" "It's not like I'm not doing something good down here." "I mean we're all wearing the same shirt and making a difference." "I'm going to knock these sticks together, bang bang bang, slap on some paint, brush brush brush, and then Paul and I can head to the Mayan Riviera." "Where we can have margaritas and gulp and gulp and gulp and watch the sunset, into the" "Caribbean." "It's a win win for everyone." "Except for the poor suckers who paid a ton to watch the sun sink into the Pacific, which is what it normally does." "Oh, okay so sue me Pam I'm bad at geography." "I don't care, listen, I am so sick of normal." "I just want paradise." "His version of paradise." "And if the sweet Lord is my ticket to that, then so be it." "All the better." "I mean I'm here two weeks, life goes on." "There you are." "uh, uh, uh." "I'm losing you!" "No, no." "It's a really bad connection." "I know that's you you... no, come on." "I'm sorry, thank you." "Everything okay?" "Yeah, just checking in." "She did not just hang up on me." "Oh my." "yon city." "Holding up the wall?" "Your dad has a beautiful voice." "Yeah he does." "I see where you got your dreams of being a rock star." "It's amazing." "What's that?" "Just given everything that's happened." "The devastation." "Everyone just seems, so okay, so just happy." "When your peace comes from God no storm can take it." "Yeah, I spill a drop of wine on my carpet and I have a heart attack." "Go bonkers." "Okay." "The temperature really drops here at night huh?" "Yeah." "Savior." "down." "Let us love one another for love comes from" "God." "Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God." "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love." "Anyone who does not love does not know God because God is love." "1st John 4:7-8." "Would anybody like to say anything about that?" "Maria." "That's a very good question Maria." "Gwyneth." "Would you like to take a crack at it?" "I'm, I'm sorry, I just, my Spanish." "I don't" " I don't think I understood the question." "Maria wanted to know why, if God loves us so much, he let happened to their village what happened." "If God is love, why did he let this happen?" "Well, that is a very good question Maria." "And not an easy one to answer." "But I know there are many wonderful answers in here." "Let me see." "How about James 1:7-8?" "I think that addresses it beautifully, don't you?" "Yes." "That is exactly what I was thinking." "You are exactly right." "Let's see." "And that was the end of the road." "They knew." "I knew they knew." "And they knew I knew they knew." "Perfect." "Now the only question was how I was gonna get out of there with any trace of dignity." "Hey." "Hey." "I was just hunkering down with the men folk about tomorrow." "Lots to get done?" "Yeah." "But we will get 'er done." "I'm sure you will." "I mean God willing of course." "God willing, right?" "You hungry?" "Not really, no." "Can I talk to you a minute?" "You're not enjoying this are you?" "What?" "you seem lost." "Are you lost?" "I don't - kind of." "You know what I think?" "Straight up." "You're pretending." "Pretending to be something you're not." "Why would you say that?" "Just a hunch." "Am I right?" "Not, completely but..." "You're not really a believe are you?" "There's that word again." "Wow." "I guess I'm confused." "I like you a lot." "There's nothing confusing about that." "And I like you." "A lot." "So?" "Being a believer what does that even mean?" "I'm Christian, I believe in God , I was baptized, all of that stuff." "Are we really that different?" "You gonna figure all that out with this?" "Where did you find that?" "Did someone go through my stuff ?" "Because that so not..." "One of the kids found it when they were cleaning out the bunk house." "It was under your cot." "They gave it to my mom, and she gave it to me." "Tell me if this sounds about right." "All your life you've done some searching for something." "Something bigger." "Every now and again maybe you can call yourself a Christian." "Why not?" "It's easy, gives it a name." "So you say, "I believe in God"." "And for the most part it works." "Covers the bases, satisfies that underlying need to understand it deeper." "You kinda go with the common flow." "And then something bad happens and you look around see all the terrible things in the world." "Compound that with the general negative spin on religion and you just get turned off to it." "God, faith, all of it." "So you, toss it all out." "Back and forth, accept it, reject it." "How's that sounding?" "About right." "Honestly, some of the stuff out there, you would not be human if you didn't question it." "So help me out here." "When you went online, Christian Mingle." "What exactly were you expecting ?" "Honestly, I don't know." "I just saw the website and, all of these happy people." "And the guys just seemed, I don't know." "All of the guys that I have, I have been dating were just so full of themselves." "And I saw your pictures." "And your smile and you just seemed like a genuine guy." "But, then you lied about yourself." "Why?" "Well isn't it obvious?" "Because if I hadn't, then, then you." "What does it matter because in the end, we did meet." "And, Paul I really like you, and according to you, you really like me a lot." "So." "I do like you." "But whoever I am with I gotta feel totally comfortable sharing what's important to me." "And having a relationship with Christ through the good and the bad, that is, that is more important to me than anything." "And I, I can't, I can't share that with you." "Not if it's not true for you." "That's who I was looking for." "So, what are you saying?" "I'm not sure, I'm, I mean I'm confused myself." "Because I do like you." "I really like you." "Well okay." "Then, unless you are under some contractual obligation please your mother by being with a gal, that she thinks you should be with, i.e., Kel-Kel which is not me." "Then maybe you could slowly help me get to a place that works for you." "That works for both of us." "I would like that!" "Maybe, you could help show me my driftwood." "I don't think it works like that." "Not for me anyway." "I just wished that you hadn't lied." "Maybe if you didn't-mm." "I don't know." "I don't know." "So, should" "I just leave?" "I like you so much." "I'm really sorry." "Yeah, Me too." "Me too." "That was just about one of the worst moments of my life." "But, things were exactly as they were meant to be." "I think it is called Grace." "Don't say I didn't tell you." "Yeah." "Christians looking for other Christians." "I really liked him." "I know." "Yes, come in." "Hey, Hey um.." "How you doing?" "I'm glad you are back." "That was pretty fast." "You, are, are you feeling better?" "Ah, what?" "I know you want to keep it between us." "But, the strep throat." "Oh, oh yeah the strep throat, yeah, it's a little scratchy but you know what I am doing so much better." "Thank you!" "That's good." "That's good and, and so you're back at it?" "With, with the De bona thing?" "Yes, yes." "That's splendid, splendid." "Well, then as you were." "Thank you." "Thank you, but strep throat really?" "You could of just said the a cold or the flu." "You had to go all dramatic with strep throat?" "Hey, you said a couple of weeks so that's what I bought ya." "news lie admit-ion ." "I got my eyes on the path." "My eyes on the path." "We are in here!" "We are in here!" "Oh I used to love this program." "Never miss a day of it." "I keep it on for her." "OK, it's a little catchy." "You know these people never to seem to leave town." "Or get older, evidently." "Alright Gwen, What's going on?" "Is it chain again?" "Yeah, it clinks." "Clinks?" "Or maybe it's more of a clunk." "Sure it's not a clank?" "Like last time?" "No, it's definitely a clink." "It's like clink, clink, clink, clink." "I got, I got it." "I got it." "Thanks dad." "You're single." "You're Christian and you are looking for a meaningful relationship." "Find God's match for you at" "Oh, it's a different day, huh?" "Yeah." "I meet my wife in high school." "I married her right afterward and loved her till the day she passed and oh, no." "Eleven years ago." "You ever think about getting back out there?" "You know, dating?" "Da-da-dating?" "Me?" "No, no, no, no, no, no." "She was my one and only." "I think I got your coin figured out here, just give me a minute." "within the faith." "Join today as part of your free membership you can take a journey of self discovery with a color coded personality test." "If you are hoping to meet someone special" "Sometimes we wait for God to make the next move when God is saying, "It's your time to act", "your time to act", "your time to act"." "We have had a lot of opportunity walk through our door." "Some better, some worse and ninety-nine percent of the time I have been able to doll it up." "Give it a makeover, and make it the queen of the ball." "Correct or incorrect?" "I would say that's a fair evaluation." "But, that's not 100% is it?" "Douglas, I have to have an ounce of belief in something." "A half an ounce." "Just a drop of it to do what I do." "To find the angle, the magic." "This De Bona stuff, all of it, it's just..." "Stop!" "Don't say that word." "If you say it, it becomes truth and you can't go back on it." "You're the one who made that rule!" "I can't do it." "It's false." "Look, Gwyneth, this isn't the first time you've had to make the leap." "But I can't do it this time." "That's what this is about." "On the record, I want to say that I think this hair thing is the real deal and I think it is going to grow hair, not just because I want it to." "I'm sorry Douglas but I just can't do it." "Not this time." "Not with this." "Not, with any of it anymore." "I think I've just pushed the boundary so far, and bought into the dung for so long." "And suspended a sense of belief , and what we do here." "And in, my life that I don't even know what's true or real anymore." "I've gotta believe." "I just needed to start at the beginning." "Everyone welcome?" "Pam was right." "I had been knocking on one door hoping another would open." "Give it all back to me." "What I've done for you." "What I do through you."

"You don't wear a cross or anything?" "Really not my style." "Huh." "But you seemed like you were so against the whole Mingle thing." "I wasn't against anything." "I told you it was for Christians looking for other Christians." "Who wanted to share a true love for Christ." "And no matter what you may think, you're not quite there yet." "Yeah." "I've got a lot of work to do but," "I want to do it." "And not for Paul." "I mean, if he were a part of the deal that would be fine." "But, I want to do this for me." "I want a relationship with him." "I, I want him in my life." "Who?" "Him." "Who?" "Him." "I didn't hear you." "Jesus." "I couldn't hear you, what'd you say?" "Ok I want Jesus in my life." "There we go, I said." "Can you say it louder?" "I want Jesus in my life!" "There you go." "Hey it's Paul here." "I'm back from old Mexico." "Leave me a message and I will get back to you." "Knock knock." "Oh wow!" "This is a surprise." "Let me catch up with you guys." "Do you want to come in here?" "That'd be great." "Knock knock you never said who's there." "Okay, who's there?"

"Lying to you and deceiving you which by definition is the same thing." "I'm sorry." "And I hope with all of my heart that you can forgive me someday, no strings attached." "I just wanted to say that." "Gosh of course." "Forgiven." "That is really thoughtful and, and very sweet." "I appreciate it." "And I, also wanted to say thank you, for opening my eyes." "And my heart to all of this." "You woke something up in me that had just been, I guess it had been there all along." "But I don't know, maybe that was his plan." "Maybe that's the reason we met." "Nothing more." "Right." "I don't know where it's going but, for the first time I just, I have this sense of purpose in my life." "That's awesome." "The heart of a man plans his way but the" "Lord establishes his steps." "Wow, you have been doing your homework." "Yes I have." "Do you mind us coming in?" "Oh Gwyneth, what a lovely surprise." "Hi Gwinny." "Hi." "Gwyneth was just telling me about this amazing journey she's on." "Oh?" "That's wonderful." "Yeah, you know, it's kind of more of a weekend getaway." "Really I wouldn't actually call it a journey yet." "I'm just kind of cutting that baby path through the jungle to Jesus, you know?" "But just my, my sights are on the Lord, and just yep that good ol' pathway to heaven." "Right there." "That's where I'm going." "Okay." "Bye." "Gabby had her baby." "Did she?" "Down in Mexico?" "Right there in the square." "Just like she wanted without a hitch." "That's awesome, and so public." "Yeah it's a beautiful, healthy baby boy." "Praise God." "Alright you look like you're chomping at the bit to say something, so go on just say it." "You think you can handle it?" "We'll see." "Okay." "On one hand I'm really happy for you." "I am, just like I said." "But, on the other hand I'm kind of disappointed in you too." "You're disappointed?" "Okay look I know I messed up." "I wasn't truthful with you, and I am paying the price for that." "But, I'm kind of wondering what your deception is costing you." "Kelly?" "If you're really happy, I'm happy, but isn't it just a little obvious?" "Actually I think it's pretty amazing that we practically grew up together, and then one day I turn around and there she is." "It's like driftwood." "You're not your dad, you are not your mom." "You're you, and Kelly's a great girl and, you know what, God is probably gonna like unload about 40 days and 40 nights of rain on me for saying all of this." "But, I just feel like you are, you play it so safe." "When does Paul get to just be Paul?" "Like this church I've been going to." "Totally chill and laid back." "Does that make it any less Christian than the one you go to?" "No, it can't." "But it does make it more me, and it doesn't make it right or wrong but it's the way I can relate to God." "Chill and laid back." "Not exactly how I would describe you, but go ahead." "I don't know if Kelly is on your path." "She may be, but it's like your life has been planned and laid out for you, by everyone but you." "Just locked, stock and Jesus." "It's your turn Paul." "Take some chances." "Give safe a break, and be your own man." "Just be you." "You finished?" "Yeah." "Yeah I guess, I guess I am." "Good." "I don't think it's a good idea that we see each other anymore." "I'll pray for you, I will." "But you are so off base here." "Starting with Kelly." "No, I wasn't trying to be rude about Kelly." "You spend 5 minutes carving your way through your jungle to Jesus, and you think that you have it all figured out." "I like you Gwyneth and I'm not gonna lie about that, and you are definitely one of a kind, and I have no doubt of the incredible journey that you're on." "Or that Jesus is waiting for you with open arms." "But I." "like I said, I'll pray for you but beyond that." "I was kidding about the 40 days ." "You don't even have a sense of humor." "Okay that was wrong of me." "I'm sorry." "Please hear me." "I realized it wasn't enough to talk about" "God." "I needed to know God personally ." "So we started a conversation." "Leave me alone!" "Really?" "You're so obvious." "Really?" "I remembered at my church the preacher saying that Jesus died for my sin on the cross, and he told me if I'd turn from my sin and ask Jesus into my life, he would come in." "I know, a little heavy, but through all my tears that night I finally understood what that meant." "Maybe you're knocking on one door hoping another will open." "I knocked on one more door, his door, and boy did it open." "You're 3E right Hayden?" "I've got your mail right here." "Dear Senorita, me sorry for my English not so good." "I want to say 'Hi and thank you very much for coming to San Luis'." "My village, it looks so pretty again, almost like it was before." "It is like what you taught us in school." "When bad things happened." "God made us stronger." "Just like you made our new church stronger." "I made a photograph of it for you." "It look beautiful." "It is beautiful." "Sorry again for my English." "I hope you like the photograph." "God bless you, Maria." "I want to visit many places." "I would like to see snow and make a snow angel from heaven." "I think the world is a beautiful place." "But the most beautiful is here because I live here and it is my home." "And my family is here with me." "The end." "That was excellent, Maria." "And there is so much for you all to see and do, and I'm sure you'll all get a chance to." "Senorita, senorita!" "Es necesario que vay a la iglesia ahorita." "English, please, Eduardo." "And slow down por favor." "You need to go to the church." "It's very important." "You must go now." "Hurry, hurry!" "Jose, llama para me." "Did someone call me?" "No se, no se." "I did." "Paul?" "Wow, look at you, you look great!" "What are you doing here?" "Truth?" "I'm not really sure." "If you're looking for Kelly she's not here with me." "Not here or here." "There only one thing more difficult than, playing it safe." "You know what that is?" "Admitting you're wrong." "And I was so wrong to let you go, Gwyneth." "I came here to tell you that." "We get good cell service here." "I mean, a text message would've been cheaper." "But you can't do this with a text." "So you maybe still like me then ?" "Truth is I never stopped." "Me neither." "I think we're being watched." "Do you want to meet my kids?" "I like the sound of that." "Come on." "So your papa, I've gotten to know him on a little on his visits down here." "And he is just an awesome guy." "And your momma, well,we're going to have to work on her a little." "She's definitely an acquired taste." "Speaking of which, I don't suppose we can score some sushi around here?" "Don't even try it." "You got me." "Hi!" "You guys, wanna say 'hi' to Paul?" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey you wanna show him around?" "Show me the hamster!" "Yeah!" "Hello!" "The love of God and love is never blind." "Youseeallthe wrongsI've  triedtohide." "Butyoustayrightbymy side whenallthe world does not."

"Start?" "Really?" "I used to think I knew it all." "I had all the answers and I could spin a lie with the best of 'em." "Now I'm pretty sure I don't know anything except Jesus is there for us."
