The city was in shock
426
00:20:58,132 --> 00:20:59,668
late last night
when a tragic fire
427
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,382
broke out at Saint James.
428

controversial church
429

on the campus of our very own
Hadleigh University.
430
00:21:05,931 --> 00:21:07,638
Both police
and fire departments

have not ruled out arson
in the fire that has claimed

the life of a visiting pastor
from Ghana,
433

Jude Mbaye.
434
00:21:14,190 --> 00:21:16,728
Police and the FBI
are now treating the case
435
00:21:16,859 --> 00:21:19,067
as a hate-crime homicide.
436
00:21:19,195 --> 00:21:21,608
Crowds have already started
to gather outside the church

It's time.

Our enrollment is down 18%.

I am well aware of that,

on Saint James.
450
00:21:52,061 --> 00:21:53,927
Well, this university
is in the midst
451
00:21:54,063 --> 00:21:57,147
of an identity crisis, Tom,
because of Saint James.
452

We're moving backwards.
453
00:21:58,776 --> 00:21:59,937

is a historic landmark.

00:27:25,894 --> 00:27:27,010
Hey.
541
00:27:27,146 --> 00:27:28,637
Dave.
542
00:27:28,772 --> 00:27:31,435
Thanks for coming in.
543
00:27:31,567 --> 00:27:33,684
Let's go get a cup of coffee.
544
00:27:33,819 --> 00:27:35,526
Sure.
545
00:27:35,654 --> 00:27:38,488
Tom, this is insane.
546
00:27:38,615 --> 00:27:40,481
You're gonna use this
as an opportunity
547
00:27:40,617 --> 00:27:42,984
to advance some
political agenda?
548
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:44,486
It's not about that.
549
00:27:44,621 --> 00:27:46,032
You don't just
knock a church down
550
00:27:46,165 --> 00:27:47,827
because of a little
controversy.
551
00:27:47,958 --> 00:27:50,120
Look, the insurance
will cover the damage.
552
00:27:50,252 --> 00:27:51,663
It won't cost
the university anything.
553
00:27:51,795 --> 00:27:53,912
It's not about
the money, either.
554
00:27:54,047 --> 00:27:55,709
It's really not.
555
00:27:55,841 --> 00:27:57,423
This makes no sense.
556
00:27:57,551 --> 00:27:59,543
We were attacked.
557
00:27:59,678 --> 00:28:01,670
I know.
558
00:28:01,805 --> 00:28:04,548
But, Dave, we're worried
about the school,
559
00:28:04,683 --> 00:28:06,174
the welfare of the students.
560
00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:08,302
There are a lot
of factors here.
561
00:28:09,813 --> 00:28:11,725
Look, I know you're upset.
562
00:28:11,857 --> 00:28:13,598
You have every right to be.
563
00:28:13,734 --> 00:28:15,191
I don't like this, either.
564
00:28:15,319 --> 00:28:16,901
I hope you get that.
565
00:28:20,115 --> 00:28:21,902
It's all in there.
566
00:28:28,081 --> 00:28:30,368
This was my father's church.
567
00:28:32,252 --> 00:28:34,460
I was baptized there.
568
00:28:34,588 --> 00:28:37,001
I spent my whole life there.
569
00:28:37,132 --> 00:28:38,543
I know.
570
00:28:38,675 --> 00:28:40,086
It's my home, Tom.
571
00:28:40,219 --> 00:28:41,881
It's everything I have.
572
00:28:42,012 --> 00:28:43,878
(slides papers across table)
573
00:28:44,014 --> 00:28:45,425
And it's not for sale.
574
00:28:45,557 --> 00:28:47,514
I don't think
you're hearing me, Dave.
575
00:28:47,643 --> 00:28:50,727
The board has decided.
576
00:28:50,854 --> 00:28:52,971
It's a done deal.
577
00:28:55,984 --> 00:28:57,896
I'm sorry.
578
00:28:58,028 --> 00:28:59,815
WOMAN:
This is absurd.
579
00:28:59,947 --> 00:29:01,483
They can just take
the church from us?
580
00:29:01,615 --> 00:29:03,857
- I mean, don't we own this land?
- Yes.
581
00:29:03,992 --> 00:29:06,405
- So, how is this legal?
- JOSH: Eminent domain.
582
00:29:06,536 --> 00:29:08,869
I studied property law a bit
in grad school.
583
00:29:08,997 --> 00:29:11,455
As I understand it, the state
gave all public universities
584
00:29:11,583 --> 00:29:13,791
complete autonomy
over eminent domain.
585
00:29:13,919 --> 00:29:16,582
Which means Hadleigh
can legally force us to sell.
586
00:29:16,713 --> 00:29:18,500
- Where are we supposed to go?
- And with what
587
00:29:18,632 --> 00:29:20,214
they're offering, how can we
build anything anyway?
588
00:29:20,342 --> 00:29:21,753
- Can we go to court?
- Another lawsuit?
589
00:29:21,885 --> 00:29:23,751
Really?
- I hate to be the bearer of bad news,
590
00:29:23,887 --> 00:29:26,174
but we've burned through any
legal reserves and then some
591
00:29:26,306 --> 00:29:28,673
over the last few months.
- No land within 30 miles of here.
592
00:29:28,809 --> 00:29:30,175
We're out of money,
plain and simple.
593
00:29:30,310 --> 00:29:31,517
None that we can afford.
594
00:29:31,645 --> 00:29:33,853
I don't see that we have
an option here.
595
00:29:38,568 --> 00:29:40,184
JOSH:
You gonna be okay?
596
00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:50,366
All these years
this church has been here.
597
00:29:50,497 --> 00:29:53,911
When I think about the work
that God has done
598
00:29:54,042 --> 00:29:56,830
and the lives
that He's changed...
599
00:29:58,338 --> 00:30:00,204
Now it's just a crime scene.
600
00:30:05,053 --> 00:30:07,010
(heavy sigh)
601
00:30:08,515 --> 00:30:11,428
You know, Keaton stopped by
the other day.
602
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,392
Remember her?
603
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,059
First time I've seen her
in five months.
604
00:30:17,190 --> 00:30:19,056
She's lost.
605
00:30:19,192 --> 00:30:21,980
She needs someone to walk
with her right where she's at.
606
00:30:22,112 --> 00:30:24,104
There are hundreds more
like her.
607
00:30:24,239 --> 00:30:26,947
- Here.
- I know, Josh. I got it, but...
608
00:30:27,075 --> 00:30:28,611
This is why I took on
Professor Radisson,
609
00:30:28,744 --> 00:30:30,861
why I left law school
for this ministry.
610
00:30:30,996 --> 00:30:34,535
Because what we do
and how we do it, it...
611
00:30:34,666 --> 00:30:36,157
it's important, Dave.
612
00:30:36,293 --> 00:30:38,626
Josh, we have no money,
no lawyers.
613
00:30:38,754 --> 00:30:40,211
If I could do something,
I would.
614
00:30:40,339 --> 00:30:42,205
It's just...
it's not that easy.
615
00:30:43,383 --> 00:30:45,215
No, it's not easy.
616
00:30:46,345 --> 00:30:48,507
But it's simple.
617
00:30:50,724 --> 00:30:52,181
Look, I, uh...
618
00:30:52,309 --> 00:30:55,427
(chuckles) I hate to quote
scripture to a pastor,
619
00:30:55,562 --> 00:30:57,269
but, um...
620
00:30:57,397 --> 00:30:59,764
you remember Luke 12:48?
621
00:31:02,069 --> 00:31:03,435
Seems like you're the one

much is being asked of
this time.

If you decide you want
to fight this,
624
00:31:12,287 --> 00:31:14,904
pretty sure God
will handle the details.
625
00:31:16,333 --> 00:31:18,700
And I'll be right here
beside you.

No, I realize that,
but it's a family thing.

What do you want me to say?
720
00:36:48,707 --> 00:36:50,619
Just make sure everything
has the same zip.
721
00:36:50,750 --> 00:36:52,582
Okay? Okay, thanks.
722
00:36:52,711 --> 00:36:54,247
Make yourself at home.
723
00:36:54,379 --> 00:36:56,712
- You doing all right?
- I'll tell you what.
724
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:58,832
You stop asking me,

Fair enough.

Okay? I'm starving.
There's nothing in that fridge
729
00:37:08,893 --> 00:37:11,761
but moldy casseroles.
Is Doe's still open?
730
00:37:11,896 --> 00:37:13,728

Don't eat that.

PEARCE: The government
takes private property.

But this isn't about
a railroad.
738
00:37:26,411 --> 00:37:29,199
They said they need the land
to build a new student union.
739
00:37:29,330 --> 00:37:30,616
I hardly think that qualifies.
740
00:37:30,749 --> 00:37:32,035
We'll see. It might.

00:37:32,167 --> 00:37:34,033
You're not hearing me.
742
00:37:34,169 --> 00:37:35,626
They just want the church gone
because they think
743
00:37:35,754 --> 00:37:37,791
it's bad PR for the university.
744
00:37:37,922 --> 00:37:39,288
Yeah, they're probably right.

Now you want to tell me

an eminent domain case?

00:45:24,096 --> 00:45:25,758
Come on over here.
896
00:45:25,890 --> 00:45:27,301
Can I have that Bible?
897
00:45:27,433 --> 00:45:28,549
JOSH:
Yeah, yeah.
898
00:45:28,684 --> 00:45:29,970
Said some kind of lawyer.
899
00:45:30,102 --> 00:45:31,559
So the, uh...
900
00:45:31,687 --> 00:45:35,226
the Bible is the Word of God.
901
00:45:35,358 --> 00:45:38,442
But how often do we really
take time to read it?
902
00:45:38,569 --> 00:45:40,231
Let's start at the top,
shall we?
903
00:45:40,363 --> 00:45:42,821
- "In the beginning..."
- Oh, man.

PEARCE:
They haven't even filed yet.
905
00:45:44,951 --> 00:45:47,068
No appraisals,
no escrow deposits.
906
00:45:47,203 --> 00:45:48,944
It's an old-fashioned
end around.
907
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,696
Hold on.
908
00:45:53,042 --> 00:45:55,910
You still there? You still
gotta send me the injunction.
909
00:45:56,045 --> 00:45:57,536
Yeah, PDF's fine.
910
00:45:57,672 --> 00:45:59,083
Okay, hurry up.
911
00:45:59,215 --> 00:46:00,831
Hey, hey, hey!
I-I don't even know
912
00:46:00,967 --> 00:46:02,458
what she looks like.
913
00:46:02,593 --> 00:46:04,880
The judge! Who do you think
I'm talking about?
914
00:46:05,012 --> 00:46:07,095
Yeah, send me a pic.
915
00:46:07,223 --> 00:46:10,842

and it's important
that I speak with you.
927
00:46:57,815 --> 00:47:00,933
I'm in the middle of Mass.
928
00:47:01,068 --> 00:47:04,106
I'm aware.
It's... it's very timely.
929
00:47:04,238 --> 00:47:05,695
It involves a church.
930
00:47:05,823 --> 00:47:07,439
REPORTER:
And we want to take you
931
00:47:07,575 --> 00:47:09,032
live to the scene right now,
932
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,322
show you what is developing
as we speak.
933
00:47:11,454 --> 00:47:12,945
You are looking here
at Saint James Church.
934
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:14,821
This is on the campus
of Hadleigh University now.
935
00:47:14,957 --> 00:47:18,371
Local pastor, David Hill,
is basically staging
936
00:47:18,502 --> 00:47:21,336
his very own version of what
can only be described here
937
00:47:21,464 --> 00:47:23,672
as a Senate filibuster.
938
00:47:23,799 --> 00:47:25,461
His last-ditch effort
to delay the demolition
939
00:47:25,593 --> 00:47:26,709
of his church.
940
00:47:26,844 --> 00:47:28,130
"When it came to pass..."
941
00:47:28,262 --> 00:47:29,844
As you can see here,
he's literally reading
942
00:47:29,972 --> 00:47:32,464
the Bible cover to cover
while the growing crowds
943
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:33,807
watch and wait.
944
00:47:33,934 --> 00:47:35,095
Yeah, that's him.
945
00:47:35,227 --> 00:47:37,640
Your little stunt's gonna cost
you and the pastor
946
00:47:37,772 --> 00:47:39,434
- a night in jail.
- Well, I don't think so.
947
00:47:39,565 --> 00:47:43,104
I have a signed injunction
from Judge Pascual that says...
948
00:47:43,235 --> 00:47:45,022
Well, you can read it yourself.
949
00:47:45,154 --> 00:47:47,521
"Cease and desist."
950
00:47:50,493 --> 00:47:52,075
Good?
951
00:47:52,203 --> 00:47:54,160
- Thank you.

955
00:48:03,255 --> 00:48:04,371
What happened?
956
00:48:04,507 --> 00:48:06,169
I just bought us three weeks.
957
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:07,882
Thank you.
958
00:48:08,010 --> 00:48:09,296
REPORTER:
So, maybe the university's
959
00:48:09,428 --> 00:48:11,135
board of trustees
does have the right
960
00:48:11,263 --> 00:48:12,925
to expropriate the church
property.
961
00:48:13,057 --> 00:48:14,844
But even if it's legal,
is it moral?
962
00:48:14,975 --> 00:48:16,841
Just take a look
at their dilemma here.
963
00:48:16,977 --> 00:48:18,513
This is no longer
a Christian school.
964
00:48:18,646 --> 00:48:20,353
The church really should
have moved off campus
965
00:48:20,481 --> 00:48:23,224
50 years ago when the state
bought the university.
966
00:48:23,359 --> 00:48:25,942
Instead, funding is given
disproportionately
967
00:48:26,070 --> 00:48:27,652
to one religious organization
968
00:48:27,780 --> 00:48:29,487
while other ones
are being denied.
969
00:48:29,615 --> 00:48:32,983
So you add that to all of this
controversy and now violence.
970
00:48:33,119 --> 00:48:35,361
You tell me...
how can they justify
971
00:48:35,496 --> 00:48:37,408
keeping the church on campus?
972
00:48:37,540 --> 00:48:40,533
Thomas Ellsworth is making
the right choice here.
973
00:48:40,668 --> 00:48:43,581
It's not the easy one,
but it is the right choice.
974
00:48:43,712 --> 00:48:46,079
DAVE: I think their intentions
are pretty clear.
975
00:48:46,215 --> 00:48:48,548
Enough with writing letters.
Let's call 'em out.
976
00:48:48,676 --> 00:48:50,542
Call 'em out on what,
stupidity?
977
00:48:50,678 --> 00:48:51,919
Why are you so reluctant
to accept
978
00:48:52,054 --> 00:48:53,636
- what's really going on?
- Unbelievable.
979
00:48:53,764 --> 00:48:56,347
You guys love to play
the victim card, don't you?
980
00:48:56,475 --> 00:48:58,091
- "You guys."
- Look, forget it.
981
00:48:58,227 --> 00:49:00,435
I'm not engaging in
a false narrative with you.
982
00:49:00,563 --> 00:49:02,099
I'm just... I'm not.
983
00:49:02,231 --> 00:49:03,517
It undermines
true religious liberty.
984
00:49:03,649 --> 00:49:05,891
You're talking to a guy
who went to jail
985
00:49:06,026 --> 00:49:07,142
who's now having
his church stolen.
986
00:49:07,278 --> 00:49:08,314
How is that false narrative?
987
00:49:08,446 --> 00:49:10,108
Because it's never that simple.
988
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,323
The Christian Church has a long
history of persecuting people,
989
00:49:13,451 --> 00:49:14,862
and then those people
push back,
990
00:49:14,994 --> 00:49:17,327
and you guys want
to cry victim.
991
00:49:17,455 --> 00:49:19,071
And for every example
of someone
992
00:49:19,206 --> 00:49:21,573
who's misrepresented Jesus
for some twisted reason,
993
00:49:21,709 --> 00:49:24,326
there are a hundred others
who have done good in His name.
994
00:49:24,462 --> 00:49:26,545
We can debate history
all you want,
995
00:49:26,672 --> 00:49:29,756
but I'm talking about now,
about getting my church back.
996
00:49:29,884 --> 00:49:31,671
Can you just help me do that?
997
00:49:31,802 --> 00:49:33,418
I'm right here, aren't I?
998
00:49:33,554 --> 00:49:35,796
Just don't drag me
into your personal crusade.
999
00:49:35,931 --> 00:49:37,047
(groans)
1000
00:49:38,601 --> 00:49:39,887
Where you going?
1001
00:49:40,019 --> 00:49:41,476
I'm going to bed.
1002
00:49:46,066 --> 00:49:47,273
- Thank you, Pastor.
- Thank you for your sacrifice.
1003
00:49:47,401 --> 00:49:48,482
- Appreciate it.
- Thank you.
1004
00:49:48,611 --> 00:49:49,818
Okay.
1005
00:49:51,030 --> 00:49:52,487
Okay.
1006
00:49:56,785 --> 00:49:58,026
Pastor Dave.
1007
00:49:59,246 --> 00:50:00,862
Keaton, how are you?
1008
00:50:00,998 --> 00:50:02,409
I'm okay.
1009
00:50:02,541 --> 00:50:04,407
So, how's stuff going
with the the church?
1010
00:50:04,543 --> 00:50:06,626
Have they found the person
who did it?
1011
00:50:06,754 --> 00:50:08,871
Not yet.
They're still investigating.
1012
00:50:09,006 --> 00:50:12,249
Oh, I just figured, like,
fingerprints or whatever.
1013
00:50:12,384 --> 00:50:14,876
Oh, it's not quite
like the movies.
1014
00:50:15,012 --> 00:50:18,130
It takes time, but I'm sure
they'll catch 'em.
1015
00:50:18,265 --> 00:50:21,178
What's gonna happen
when they find 'em?
1016
00:50:21,310 --> 00:50:25,645
Put 'em away, I hope,
for a long time.
1017
00:50:28,067 --> 00:50:30,104
PEARCE: The order's good
for three weeks.
1018
00:50:30,236 --> 00:50:32,148
Can't be much longer than that.
1019
00:50:32,279 --> 00:50:33,861
Hey, what do you want me
to say?
1020
00:50:33,989 --> 00:50:35,981
He's my brother.
1021
00:50:36,116 --> 00:50:38,278
Do me a favor...
send me some briefs
1022
00:50:38,410 --> 00:50:41,949
for Kelo v. New London and...
what else?
1023
00:50:42,081 --> 00:50:44,824
Faith Temple, uh,
v. Brighton.
1024
00:50:44,959 --> 00:50:46,075
Okay, thanks.
1025
00:51:05,729 --> 00:51:07,186
(sighs)
1026
00:51:10,359 --> 00:51:12,351
Really, take it with you.
It's getting cold out there.
1027
00:51:12,486 --> 00:51:13,522
All right, bye.
1028
00:51:13,654 --> 00:51:15,236
- Thank you.
- Smells good.
1029
00:51:15,364 --> 00:51:17,447
- Mm-hmm.
- Smells good.
1030
00:51:17,575 --> 00:51:19,862
Coming to collect
on that rain check.
1031
00:51:21,954 --> 00:51:23,866
MEG:
You guys close growing up?
1032
00:51:23,998 --> 00:51:27,241
DAVE: Yeah.
That's why it was so hard.
1033
00:51:27,376 --> 00:51:29,242
Pearce was my hero.
1034
00:51:29,378 --> 00:51:32,041
I mean, he had
this strong faith.
1035
00:51:32,172 --> 00:51:34,209
But he was so cool about it.
1036
00:51:34,341 --> 00:51:36,298
He made Christianity cool.
1037
00:51:36,427 --> 00:51:38,259
Yeah, I know the type.
1038
00:51:38,387 --> 00:51:41,255
Went off to law school
when I started college.
1039
00:51:41,390 --> 00:51:42,801
And then something happened.
1040
00:51:42,933 --> 00:51:44,424
I don't know, he changed.
1041
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,142
How?
1042
00:51:46,270 --> 00:51:47,932
(sighing):
Uh...
1043
00:51:48,063 --> 00:51:51,272
I don't know, I guess he was
struggling in his faith.
1044
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,312
But it was more
than just confusion.
1045
00:51:53,444 --> 00:51:55,561
It was darker than that.
1046
00:51:55,696 --> 00:51:57,403
I always hoped
that he'd come around
1047
00:51:57,531 --> 00:52:00,114
before our parents died.
1048
00:52:01,994 --> 00:52:04,077
It was hard on them.
1049
00:52:04,204 --> 00:52:06,617
Felt like they lost their son.
1050
00:52:06,749 --> 00:52:08,706
You lost your hero.
1051
00:52:08,834 --> 00:52:10,541
Yeah.
1052
00:52:10,669 --> 00:52:12,126
Guess I did.
1053
00:52:12,254 --> 00:52:14,496
(tapping)
1054
00:52:16,091 --> 00:52:19,425
MEG:
That's amazing, isn't it?
1055
00:52:19,553 --> 00:52:20,839
That he can look at that...
1056
00:52:23,432 --> 00:52:25,139
...and see that.
1057
00:52:30,356 --> 00:52:32,268
You okay?
1058
00:52:33,984 --> 00:52:36,317
I feel a little bit
like I'm drifting.
1059
00:52:37,780 --> 00:52:39,988
Keep trying to tell myself
all the things
1060
00:52:40,115 --> 00:52:43,529
that I would tell others
who are struggling.
1061
00:52:43,661 --> 00:52:45,402
It's not helping.
1062
00:52:45,537 --> 00:52:48,826
Think I might be bad at my job.
1063
00:52:48,957 --> 00:52:50,914
I doubt that.
1064
00:52:51,043 --> 00:52:54,036
I just want to get back
to the way things were.
1065
00:52:55,464 --> 00:52:56,921
How far back is that?
1066
00:52:58,425 --> 00:53:01,418
I mean, going back
doesn't really work.
1067
00:53:01,553 --> 00:53:03,135
And believe me, I've tried.
1068
00:53:03,263 --> 00:53:06,552
I've gone back to school,
gone back home,
1069
00:53:06,684 --> 00:53:09,267
back to brunette.
1070
00:53:09,395 --> 00:53:13,059
But I've never been able to go
back to the way things were.
1071
00:53:14,650 --> 00:53:17,017
I hope you're wrong.
1072
00:53:17,152 --> 00:53:21,237
'Cause if I can't go back,
I don't know where to go.
1073
00:53:26,203 --> 00:53:28,160
(distant bell tolling)
1074
00:53:30,916 --> 00:53:32,202
Are you doing okay?
1075
00:53:32,334 --> 00:53:33,996
I told you to stop
asking me that.
1076
00:53:34,128 --> 00:53:35,335
Oh, yeah. I forgot.
1077
00:53:35,462 --> 00:53:37,294
BARBARA:
So, how much?
1078
00:53:37,423 --> 00:53:39,415
PEARCE:
How much what?
1079
00:53:39,550 --> 00:53:41,291
We made you an offer.
1080
00:53:41,427 --> 00:53:44,215
You're here to counter,
so counter.
1081
00:53:44,346 --> 00:53:46,258
Oh, believe me, I wish I could.
1082
00:53:46,390 --> 00:53:48,006
Unfortunately,
despite my counsel,
1083
00:53:48,142 --> 00:53:50,600
my client is not interested
in money.
1084
00:53:50,728 --> 00:53:51,809
So, what is your client
interested in?
1085
00:53:51,937 --> 00:53:53,803
- I want my church back.
- TOM: Dave...
1086
00:53:53,939 --> 00:53:55,055
be reasonable.
1087
00:53:55,190 --> 00:53:56,931
Reason went out the window,
Tom, when you brought
1088
00:53:57,067 --> 00:53:58,524
a demolition crew
to my front door.
1089
00:53:58,652 --> 00:54:00,018
WOMAN:
Look, a college campus
1090
00:54:00,154 --> 00:54:01,861
is about education,
not religion.
1091
00:54:01,989 --> 00:54:03,070
We've got limited space.
1092
00:54:03,198 --> 00:54:04,780
We need to maximize it
for every student.
1093
00:54:04,908 --> 00:54:06,865
None of that gives you the
right to tear my church down.
1094
00:54:06,994 --> 00:54:09,202
- Well, actually it does.
- Dana, stop.
1095
00:54:09,329 --> 00:54:11,366
We're wasting our time here.
1096
00:54:11,498 --> 00:54:13,785
We both know that this meeting
was simply a courtesy.
1097
00:54:13,917 --> 00:54:16,034
And, Barbara, we appreciate it.
1098
00:54:16,170 --> 00:54:17,706
It's very courteous.
1099
00:54:17,838 --> 00:54:20,672
I get it.
It's a prime piece of land.
1100
00:54:20,799 --> 00:54:23,212
You know what I'd do
if it were me?
1101
00:54:23,343 --> 00:54:25,926
I'd put in a big student center
with a fancy coffee shop.
1102
00:54:26,054 --> 00:54:27,340
The kids would love it.
1103
00:54:27,473 --> 00:54:29,260
I mean, to me,
that's more valuable
1104
00:54:29,391 --> 00:54:31,553
than a dusty old church.
No offense.
1105
00:54:31,685 --> 00:54:33,642
But he knows how I feel
about it.
1106
00:54:33,771 --> 00:54:35,512
Here's the problem.
1107
00:54:35,647 --> 00:54:38,264
What you're doing,
it's against the law.
1108
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,518
'Cause eminent domain
doesn't automatically apply
1109
00:54:41,653 --> 00:54:44,987
just because you guys
don't like his church.
1110
00:54:45,115 --> 00:54:47,357
So, here's my counter.
1111
00:54:47,493 --> 00:54:49,826
Withdraw your claim, or we sue.
1112
00:54:49,953 --> 00:54:52,741
See what a judge
has to say about it.
1113
00:54:52,873 --> 00:54:55,035
We're done.
1114
00:54:58,629 --> 00:55:00,791
This case will never
make it to court.
1115
00:55:13,936 --> 00:55:15,177
They didn't look worried,
Pearce.
1116
00:55:15,312 --> 00:55:16,723
Oh, they are.
That's their job...
1117
00:55:16,855 --> 00:55:18,346
to not look worried.
1118
00:55:18,482 --> 00:55:20,815
Listen, we gotta change
the conversation in the media.
1119
00:55:20,943 --> 00:55:23,026
Okay, we gotta put a face
to the opposition.
1120
00:55:23,153 --> 00:55:25,861
- Tom?
- Yeah, Tom.
1121
00:55:25,989 --> 00:55:27,696
He's the most visible.
He's got the most to lose.
1122
00:55:27,825 --> 00:55:28,736
You okay with that?
1123
00:55:28,867 --> 00:55:30,904
I'll just tell the truth.
1124
00:55:31,036 --> 00:55:33,870
People need to know
what he's doing.
1125
00:55:33,997 --> 00:55:35,954
Good boy. Let's go.
1126
00:55:38,627 --> 00:55:41,290
But Saint James built
Hadleigh University years ago.
1127
00:55:41,421 --> 00:55:44,129
Exactly. So you see how far
this has gone.
1128
00:55:44,258 --> 00:55:46,500
And now, with the
school board's actions,
1129
00:55:46,635 --> 00:55:49,594
we've been given no choice
but to seek a legal solution.
1130
00:55:49,721 --> 00:55:51,337
CORRESPONDENT: All of these
college administrators,
1131
00:55:51,473 --> 00:55:54,056
they go on and on and on
about diversity
1132
00:55:54,184 --> 00:55:55,720
and tolerance and inclusion,
1133
00:55:55,853 --> 00:55:57,469
but yet,
when it's asked of them,
1134
00:55:57,604 --> 00:55:59,470
they run you off of campus.
1135
00:55:59,606 --> 00:56:01,723
That doesn't sound very
tolerant or inclusive to me.
1136
00:56:01,859 --> 00:56:03,475
Tom Ellsworth is trying
to strip away
1137
00:56:03,610 --> 00:56:05,317
the foundational element
of this university
1138
00:56:05,445 --> 00:56:08,529
because he believes that it
is no longer convenient.
1139
00:56:08,657 --> 00:56:10,239
But truth isn't
about convenience.
1140
00:56:10,367 --> 00:56:12,359
And faith in God may not be
1141
00:56:12,494 --> 00:56:14,702
as popular on campus
as it once was,
1142
00:56:14,830 --> 00:56:16,366
but people still have a right...
1143
00:56:16,498 --> 00:56:20,117
a fundamental human right
to express their beliefs,
1144
00:56:20,252 --> 00:56:22,665
even in a public square
at a state university.
1145
00:56:22,796 --> 00:56:26,130
If you agree, we're asking that
you make your voices heard.
1146
00:56:26,258 --> 00:56:27,544
Send an e-mail.
1147
00:56:27,676 --> 00:56:29,212
Make a call.
1148
00:56:29,344 --> 00:56:31,711
Let Tom Ellsworth
and the university board know
1149
00:56:31,847 --> 00:56:35,431
that you believe the church
still has value.
1150
00:56:35,559 --> 00:56:37,266
CORRESPONDENT:
The gauntlet has been thrown.
1151
00:56:37,394 --> 00:56:39,477
And we'll see
how people respond.
1152
00:56:39,605 --> 00:56:41,688
PEARCE: Dude,
almost three million views.
1153
00:56:41,815 --> 00:56:44,023
People are mad. This is good.
1154
00:56:44,151 --> 00:56:46,017
Does this buy us
the leverage we need?
1155
00:56:46,153 --> 00:56:49,146
Well, we'll find out
at the prelim.
1156
00:56:49,281 --> 00:56:51,614
Need the judge to let us
argue the case, but...
1157
00:56:51,742 --> 00:56:53,404
this all helps.
1158
00:56:55,078 --> 00:56:56,785
Nice work.
1159
00:56:57,873 --> 00:56:59,284
Thanks.
1160
00:57:00,751 --> 00:57:02,037
DAVE (over phone):
I think it's time for me
1161
00:57:02,169 --> 00:57:03,455
to get back preaching again.
1162
00:57:03,587 --> 00:57:04,828
I'm afraid I'm getting
so caught up
1163
00:57:04,963 --> 00:57:06,204
in all this, I just...
1164
00:57:06,340 --> 00:57:08,252
I don't want to lose sight
of my work, you know.
1165
00:57:08,383 --> 00:57:10,215
Well, let me know
when and where.
1166
00:57:10,344 --> 00:57:12,176
I'll be there for sure.
1167
00:57:12,304 --> 00:57:14,170
Hey, we're back.
1168
00:57:14,306 --> 00:57:16,593
- Oh, I turned it off.
- What?
1169
00:57:16,725 --> 00:57:18,808
Don't you want to see
if they get the diamond?
1170
00:57:20,312 --> 00:57:21,803
Don't you knock?
1171
00:57:21,939 --> 00:57:23,555
- What are you doing?
- I'm on the phone.
1172
00:57:23,690 --> 00:57:25,022
Who you talking to so late?
1173
00:57:25,150 --> 00:57:26,561
None of your business.
1174
00:57:26,693 --> 00:57:28,480
MEG: Is that Pearce?
Tell him I said hi.
1175
00:57:28,612 --> 00:57:29,853
Meg says hi.
1176
00:57:29,988 --> 00:57:31,399
Hi, Meg.
1177
00:57:31,531 --> 00:57:32,487
Uh, let me call you back.
1178
00:57:32,616 --> 00:57:34,152
Ooh, what's the deal there?
1179
00:57:34,284 --> 00:57:36,526
There's no deal.
She's a friend of mine.
1180
00:57:36,662 --> 00:57:39,075
She runs one of the ministries
we support.
1181
00:57:40,540 --> 00:57:42,748
- What do you want, Pearce?
- Nothing.
1182
00:57:42,876 --> 00:57:44,833
- Is that my shirt?
- Yeah.
1183
00:57:48,507 --> 00:57:51,671
(repeated banging)
1184
00:58:01,144 --> 00:58:03,010
What are you doing?
1185
00:58:03,146 --> 00:58:05,513
I told you, this tree's dead.
It's gonna fall on the house.
1186
00:58:05,649 --> 00:58:07,356
I didn't ask you
to cut it down.
1187
00:58:07,484 --> 00:58:09,692
- I can do it myself.
- Can you, now?
1188
00:58:09,820 --> 00:58:11,186
Yeah, I could.
1189
00:58:11,321 --> 00:58:13,404
Go for it.
1190
00:58:13,532 --> 00:58:15,023
All right, fine.
1191
00:58:19,913 --> 00:58:21,529
You might want to back up.
1192
00:58:24,543 --> 00:58:26,535
- Gotta do better than that.
- It was a warm-up.
1193
00:58:29,214 --> 00:58:30,580
(clears throat)
1194
00:58:30,716 --> 00:58:32,878
Still warming up?
1195
00:58:34,177 --> 00:58:35,918
(door closes)
1196
00:58:40,642 --> 00:58:41,974
Careful with that weak heart
of yours.
1197
00:58:42,102 --> 00:58:43,388
Ha ha. Funny guy.
1198
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:44,601
Watch this.
1199
00:58:44,730 --> 00:58:46,767
Get ready to yell "timber."
1200
00:58:46,898 --> 00:58:49,231
I got a better idea.
1201
00:58:49,359 --> 00:58:51,225
(motor rumbling)
1202
00:58:51,361 --> 00:58:52,977
- Oh, now we're talking.
- (motor buzzing)
1203
00:58:53,113 --> 00:58:54,149
Yeah!
1204
00:59:04,458 --> 00:59:06,666
- Okay, give it a push.
- All right, hold up.
1205
00:59:06,793 --> 00:59:09,001
- Tell me when you're ready.
- Yeah.
1206
00:59:09,129 --> 00:59:10,336
Go.
1207
00:59:10,464 --> 00:59:11,420
- (wood cracking)
- (grunting)
1208
00:59:11,548 --> 00:59:13,130
Ah, we almost got it!
1209
00:59:14,593 --> 00:59:16,880
Oh! Yeah!
1210
00:59:19,306 --> 00:59:20,672
- (grunts)
- Yes!
1211
00:59:25,437 --> 00:59:28,396
Just promise me you'll plant
something new here.
1212
00:59:28,523 --> 00:59:30,389
Mom liked pomegranate trees.
1213
00:59:33,862 --> 00:59:36,730
Do you even believe
in what we're fighting for?
1214
00:59:38,450 --> 00:59:40,988
Do I believe in your right
to keep your church? Yes.
1215
00:59:41,119 --> 00:59:44,703
But the rest of it...
you know the answer.
1216
00:59:44,831 --> 00:59:46,914
So, why help me?
1217
00:59:47,042 --> 00:59:48,783
What do you think I do
for a living?
1218
00:59:48,919 --> 00:59:50,876
Do you think I need to have
the belief system
1219
00:59:51,004 --> 00:59:53,963
of every crackhead I defend
to defend 'em?
1220
00:59:54,091 --> 00:59:56,048
So religion has no value
1221
00:59:56,176 --> 00:59:58,384
except for the laws
that protect it?
1222
00:59:58,512 --> 01:00:00,595
Value? I don't know.
1223
01:00:00,722 --> 01:00:02,554
But people have evolved.
1224
01:00:02,682 --> 01:00:04,799
Science has replaced
superstition.
1225
01:00:04,935 --> 01:00:07,427
Church has outlived
its usefulness.
1226
01:00:07,562 --> 01:00:10,851
Wow.
- Okay, I don't expect you to agree, but...
1227
01:00:10,982 --> 01:00:12,268
that's okay,
'cause this is healthy.
1228
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:13,766
It's a healthy discourse.
1229
01:00:13,902 --> 01:00:15,518
Pearce, people are broken.
1230
01:00:15,654 --> 01:00:17,361
They're-they're...
they're lost.
1231
01:00:17,489 --> 01:00:20,732
They're searching...
for meaning, for purpose.
1232
01:00:20,867 --> 01:00:23,029
Oh, church is the answer
to those problems, huh?
1233
01:00:23,161 --> 01:00:24,993
Church is a place
for people to seek.
1234
01:00:25,122 --> 01:00:28,206
To grapple with
those difficult questions.
1235
01:00:28,333 --> 01:00:31,451
To find hope and... and truth.
1236
01:00:32,629 --> 01:00:34,211
And you know that.
1237
01:00:34,339 --> 01:00:36,456
Or at least you used to.
1238
01:00:36,591 --> 01:00:38,833
Why do you need me to agree
with you about everything?
1239
01:00:38,969 --> 01:00:40,801
I'm just your lawyer.
1240
01:00:40,929 --> 01:00:43,171
I didn't come here
to debate religion
1241
01:00:43,306 --> 01:00:44,922
or do your landscaping.
1242
01:00:46,518 --> 01:00:48,054
But, man,
you're my little brother.
1243
01:00:48,186 --> 01:00:51,224
And I don't like
to see people push you around.
1244
01:00:51,356 --> 01:00:53,723
And that's why I'm helping you.
1245
01:00:53,859 --> 01:00:56,602
And right now, that answer's
gotta be good enough for you.
1246
01:00:59,823 --> 01:01:01,485
MICHAEL TAIT:
Now, this whole situation
1247
01:01:01,616 --> 01:01:03,482
brings you to the Cross.
1248
01:01:03,618 --> 01:01:07,612
And the Cross is both vertical
and horizontal.
1249
01:01:07,747 --> 01:01:09,613
Vertical is me and God.
1250
01:01:09,749 --> 01:01:11,866
God and me...
my relationship with Christ.
1251
01:01:12,002 --> 01:01:13,959
The horizontal part...
you and I.
1252
01:01:14,087 --> 01:01:16,454
Sometimes we get so caught up
in the vertical,
1253
01:01:16,590 --> 01:01:19,378
we forget the horizontal,
forget each other.
1254
01:01:19,509 --> 01:01:20,670
Yeah, but it's... it's at
1255
01:01:20,802 --> 01:01:21,918
the intersection
where Jesus comes in.
1256
01:01:22,053 --> 01:01:23,715
- Yes.
- That nexus... and that's
1257
01:01:23,847 --> 01:01:26,760
where Paul's words are
so powerful and compelling...
1258
01:01:26,892 --> 01:01:28,975
even Jews and gentiles
are fellow citizens.
1259
01:01:29,102 --> 01:01:32,061
So, with all the noise
and anger out there right now,
1260
01:01:32,189 --> 01:01:34,226
it's peace that we have
to think about.
1261
01:01:34,357 --> 01:01:35,689
And it's gonna require
one thing,
1262
01:01:35,817 --> 01:01:37,399
and it's gonna
require sacrifice.
1263
01:01:37,527 --> 01:01:39,519
At the end of the day,
we can't forget
1264
01:01:39,654 --> 01:01:41,566
that Christ's forgiveness
came about
1265
01:01:41,698 --> 01:01:43,234
via the conduit
of the sacrifice.
1266
01:01:43,366 --> 01:01:46,734
And we are called, believe it
or not, to do the same.
1267
01:01:46,870 --> 01:01:49,203
(chatter, laughter)
1268
01:01:59,049 --> 01:02:01,132
- Hey.
- Hey.
1269
01:02:01,259 --> 01:02:03,342
(sighs)
1270
01:02:03,470 --> 01:02:05,211
How are you?
1271
01:02:07,015 --> 01:02:08,677
Mm, been better.
1272
01:02:14,940 --> 01:02:18,308
Do you know why my mom
divorced my dad?
1273
01:02:21,571 --> 01:02:23,437
He used to beat her.
1274
01:02:25,533 --> 01:02:27,024
I was nine...
1275
01:02:28,411 --> 01:02:30,448
...when she left him.
1276
01:02:33,375 --> 01:02:35,332
You know what our church did?
1277
01:02:37,671 --> 01:02:39,628
They called her a sinner.
1278
01:02:41,549 --> 01:02:43,040
They said that if
she married again
1279
01:02:43,176 --> 01:02:45,509
she'd be an adulterer.
1280
01:02:46,846 --> 01:02:48,678
They humiliated her.
1281
01:02:49,975 --> 01:02:52,342
What I remember most
about that time
1282
01:02:52,477 --> 01:02:56,096
is the sound of my mother
crying herself to sleep.
1283
01:02:56,231 --> 01:02:58,518
I'm so sorry. I...
1284
01:03:02,028 --> 01:03:04,736
So yeah, I get angry sometimes.
1285
01:03:06,574 --> 01:03:09,237
But I didn't... I didn't mean
for anybody to get hurt.
1286
01:03:09,369 --> 01:03:11,326
I know you didn't.
1287
01:03:15,709 --> 01:03:17,792
(sighs)
1288
01:03:17,919 --> 01:03:20,536
For what it's worth,
I prayed about it.
1289
01:03:22,966 --> 01:03:24,252
And?
1290
01:03:26,761 --> 01:03:29,174
No answer.
1291
01:03:35,228 --> 01:03:36,969
- (laughter)
- And did you believe him?
1292
01:03:37,105 --> 01:03:38,266
Of course I believed him.
1293
01:03:38,398 --> 01:03:39,514
I was seven years old.
1294
01:03:39,649 --> 01:03:41,265
I believed whatever he told me.
1295
01:03:41,401 --> 01:03:43,859
"Dave, you can make
your own 7 Up.
1296
01:03:43,987 --> 01:03:45,603
(laughing):
"All you need is...
1297
01:03:45,739 --> 01:03:47,696
is just water and salt."
1298
01:03:47,824 --> 01:03:49,440
(laughter continues)
1299
01:03:49,576 --> 01:03:51,033
- And did you drink it?
- It was terrible, obviously.
1300
01:03:51,161 --> 01:03:53,824
But I kept adding more
and more salt,
1301
01:03:53,955 --> 01:03:57,119
just waiting for those
little bubbles.
1302
01:03:57,250 --> 01:03:59,162
PEARCE:
Oh, the poor guy.
1303
01:03:59,294 --> 01:04:02,878
He drank the whole bottle...
two liters of salt water.
1304
01:04:03,006 --> 01:04:04,872
But I gotta hand it to Pearce.
1305
01:04:05,008 --> 01:04:08,251
He, uh... he waited
by my bedside all night long
1306
01:04:08,386 --> 01:04:10,252
to make sure that I didn't die.
1307
01:04:10,388 --> 01:04:13,256
Yeah. That's what brothers do.
They look out for each other.
1308
01:04:13,391 --> 01:04:15,303
- Hear, hear.
- Hear, hear, brother.
1309
01:04:15,435 --> 01:04:16,721
DAVE:
Thank you.
1310
01:04:16,853 --> 01:04:18,219
PEARCE: I really thought
you were gonna die.
1311
01:04:18,355 --> 01:04:19,766
(Pearce and Meg laugh)
1312
01:04:19,898 --> 01:04:22,060
Hadleigh University
is being flooded
1313
01:04:22,192 --> 01:04:24,184
with calls and e-mails
from angry citizens,
1314
01:04:24,319 --> 01:04:27,107
and it seems
Chancellor Ellsworth, well,
1315
01:04:27,238 --> 01:04:28,854
taking the brunt of that anger.
1316
01:04:38,958 --> 01:04:41,541
Kayla's asking
for her bedtime story.
1317
01:04:42,796 --> 01:04:45,584
(cell phone buzzing)
1318
01:04:45,715 --> 01:04:47,752
Don't answer it, Tom.
1319
01:04:53,765 --> 01:04:55,301
Hello?
1320
01:04:56,476 --> 01:04:58,468
Hello!
1321
01:04:58,603 --> 01:05:00,435
Hel... Stop calling me.
1322
01:05:00,563 --> 01:05:02,600
(glass shatters)
1323
01:05:02,732 --> 01:05:04,143
- What was that?
- Stay here, stay here.
1324
01:05:04,275 --> 01:05:05,311
What?
1325
01:05:05,443 --> 01:05:06,934
KAYLA:
Daddy!
1326
01:05:07,070 --> 01:05:09,027
Kayla! Come here, baby.
1327
01:05:09,155 --> 01:05:11,522
(vehicle speeding away)
1328
01:05:17,122 --> 01:05:19,239
What was that?
1329
01:05:22,085 --> 01:05:23,621
Go on upstairs.
1330
01:05:24,963 --> 01:05:27,046
(sighs) It's okay, baby.
1331
01:05:27,173 --> 01:05:28,835
- It's okay.
- (Kayla whimpers)
1332
01:05:31,386 --> 01:05:33,628
MEG:
I'm very proud of you.
1333
01:05:33,763 --> 01:05:35,220
DAVE:
Of me?
1334
01:05:35,348 --> 01:05:37,055
For what?
1335
01:05:37,183 --> 01:05:41,018
I get the feeling fighting's
not really your thing.
1336
01:05:41,146 --> 01:05:43,559
But it's important
what you're doing.
1337
01:05:44,691 --> 01:05:46,057
It's inspiring.
1338
01:05:48,153 --> 01:05:51,237
I was just thinking
about that sculptor
1339
01:05:51,364 --> 01:05:53,572
chiseling away at that rock.
1340
01:05:55,285 --> 01:05:57,823
It's okay to be broken, Dave.
1341
01:05:57,954 --> 01:06:01,072
It means God's still
shaping you.
1342
01:06:01,207 --> 01:06:02,994
I'm honored to be a part of it.
1343
01:06:03,126 --> 01:06:04,412
(car approaching)
1344
01:06:04,544 --> 01:06:07,332
(tires screech)
1345
01:06:07,464 --> 01:06:09,956
Tom?
- I'm getting death threats, Dave.
1346
01:06:10,091 --> 01:06:12,879
Somebody threw a brick
through my window.
1347
01:06:13,011 --> 01:06:15,503
- Okay, just take it easy, okay?
- No, Kayla could've been hurt!
1348
01:06:15,638 --> 01:06:17,095
I don't know anything about that. I'm sorry.
- No, no.
1349
01:06:17,223 --> 01:06:18,930
- You did this!
- Hey, hey.
1350
01:06:19,058 --> 01:06:20,174
(grunting)
1351
01:06:20,310 --> 01:06:21,892
Pearce!
1352
01:06:22,020 --> 01:06:23,636
(grunting and groaning)
1353
01:06:23,771 --> 01:06:25,433
Hey!
1354
01:06:25,565 --> 01:06:27,147
Get off him!
1355
01:06:31,404 --> 01:06:34,067
You brought the fight
to us, Tom.
1356
01:06:43,416 --> 01:06:45,373
- I'll get you some ice.
- (car speeding away)
1357
01:06:47,420 --> 01:06:49,082
You all right?
1358
01:06:49,214 --> 01:06:51,752
Yeah, I'm fine.
1359
01:06:56,429 --> 01:06:58,386
Maybe we should just
call it a night.
1360
01:06:59,474 --> 01:07:00,760
Yeah. Uh...
1361
01:07:00,892 --> 01:07:02,724
I'll just get my stuff.
1362
01:07:10,777 --> 01:07:12,109
I didn't realize
Tom was a psychopath.
1363
01:07:12,237 --> 01:07:14,820
Well, he's just scared.
1364
01:07:16,574 --> 01:07:19,066
Thanks.
1365
01:07:19,202 --> 01:07:21,910
Way to impress the lady,
by the way.
1366
01:07:22,038 --> 01:07:23,950
Well, it's kind of
my signature move.
1367
01:07:24,082 --> 01:07:26,244
Invite a girl over, and then
get punched in the face.
1368
01:07:26,376 --> 01:07:28,163
Works every time.
1369
01:07:28,294 --> 01:07:30,035
Let's see.
1370
01:07:30,171 --> 01:07:31,958
(inhales sharply)
1371
01:07:33,091 --> 01:07:34,627
Ow. What'd you do that for?
1372
01:07:36,344 --> 01:07:37,835
You'll be all right.
1373
01:07:41,808 --> 01:07:43,299
JOSH:
Cottonwood Christian Center
1374
01:07:43,434 --> 01:07:45,016
v. Cypress
Redevelopment Agency?
1375
01:07:45,144 --> 01:07:46,476
I got that.
Give me something else.
1376
01:07:46,604 --> 01:07:47,936
DAVE: Hey, I've got
some leftover pizza.
1377
01:07:48,064 --> 01:07:50,181
Yeah.
1378
01:07:51,276 --> 01:07:52,483
Josh, you're a smart kid.
1379
01:07:52,610 --> 01:07:53,942
Why'd you give up
on law school?
1380
01:07:54,070 --> 01:07:55,606
Well, I wouldn't say
I gave up on it.
1381
01:07:55,738 --> 01:07:58,230
Um, once I spent time
on a college campus,
1382
01:07:58,366 --> 01:08:00,403
I realized there was
a real need there.
1383
01:08:00,535 --> 01:08:02,572
You know, ministry's just
another way for me to serve.
1384
01:08:02,704 --> 01:08:04,195
What kind of law
were you studying?
1385
01:08:04,330 --> 01:08:07,073
Same as you... civil rights,
social justice.
1386
01:08:07,208 --> 01:08:09,245
Really? 'Cause you don't
strike me as a liberal.
1387
01:08:09,377 --> 01:08:10,959
Give the kid a break.
1388
01:08:11,087 --> 01:08:12,419
- What?
- JOSH: I don't think
1389
01:08:12,547 --> 01:08:13,708
standing up for the oppressed
1390
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:15,672
is exclusive
to a political agenda.
1391
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,257
Well, let me ask you this.
1392
01:08:17,385 --> 01:08:19,752
Do you think that
your religious beliefs
1393
01:08:19,887 --> 01:08:22,004
get in the way
of real social change?
1394
01:08:22,140 --> 01:08:24,132
No, my... my beliefs
are the foundation of change.
1395
01:08:24,267 --> 01:08:27,226
The belief that every human
is made in the image of God.
1396
01:08:27,353 --> 01:08:29,436
I mean, Jesus was the ultimate
social justice warrior.
1397
01:08:29,564 --> 01:08:31,055
He said the lives
of children mattered
1398
01:08:31,190 --> 01:08:34,024
and regarded women
with honor and dignity
1399
01:08:34,152 --> 01:08:36,269
in a cultural moment where
a woman's testimony wasn't even
1400
01:08:36,404 --> 01:08:38,066
permissible in a court of law.
1401
01:08:38,197 --> 01:08:39,779
He consistently stood up
for the mistreated
1402
01:08:39,907 --> 01:08:41,773
and the marginalized.
1403
01:08:41,909 --> 01:08:43,616
Well, I've been doing this
a long time,
1404
01:08:43,745 --> 01:08:46,032
and I wish I'd seen those words
put into action more often.
1405
01:08:46,164 --> 01:08:47,450
Yeah. Me, too.
1406
01:08:47,582 --> 01:08:49,164
We're all responsible
for our part,
1407
01:08:49,292 --> 01:08:50,908
but it's grace
and then justice,
1408
01:08:51,044 --> 01:08:52,410
not the other way around.
1409
01:08:52,545 --> 01:08:54,582
Whether you serve the court
or the Lord,
1410
01:08:54,714 --> 01:08:57,377
you should follow the example
of Jesus because...
1411
01:08:57,508 --> 01:09:00,125
without grace as our goal,
we're just...
1412
01:09:00,261 --> 01:09:01,502
you know, we're just fighting.
1413
01:09:01,638 --> 01:09:02,924
DAVE:
Amen.
1414
01:09:03,056 --> 01:09:05,139
Let's say grace.
1415
01:09:05,266 --> 01:09:07,679
Dear Lord:
Thank you for this day.
1416
01:09:07,810 --> 01:09:09,517
Thank you for this food.
1417
01:09:09,646 --> 01:09:11,308
Bless it to our bodies,
and forgive Pearce
1418
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:13,146
for eating before grace.
1419
01:09:13,274 --> 01:09:15,391
- Amen.
- Amen.
1420
01:09:15,526 --> 01:09:17,768
That's not funny.
1421
01:09:19,572 --> 01:09:21,734
DAVE: So, if the judge
agrees to let us
1422
01:09:21,866 --> 01:09:23,698
go to trial,
do we have a shot?
1423
01:09:23,826 --> 01:09:25,658
PEARCE: If we go to trial,
we're gonna win.
1424
01:09:25,787 --> 01:09:27,494
Public's on our side,
jury's on our side.
1425
01:09:27,622 --> 01:09:29,579
- What if the judge says no?
- Then we're done.
1426
01:09:29,707 --> 01:09:31,243
Great.
1427
01:09:31,376 --> 01:09:32,958
(Dave takes a deep breath)
1428
01:09:33,086 --> 01:09:35,703
- Am I allowed to talk in there?
- Please don't.
1429
01:09:35,838 --> 01:09:37,625
You know, I've been thinking...
I like this Meg.
1430
01:09:37,757 --> 01:09:40,044
She's the good kind
of Christian... authentic.
1431
01:09:40,176 --> 01:09:42,884
You ought to seal the deal
before she gets wise.
1432
01:09:43,012 --> 01:09:44,344
It's not exactly great timing.
1433
01:09:44,472 --> 01:09:45,804
(Pearce clucks like a chicken)
1434
01:09:45,932 --> 01:09:47,639
Maybe I don't want
to rush into things.
1435
01:09:47,767 --> 01:09:49,474
Try not to end up
with two ex-wives.
1436
01:09:49,602 --> 01:09:51,434
(chuckling):
Oh, I forgot to tell you.
1437
01:09:51,562 --> 01:09:53,349
It's three now.
1438
01:09:53,481 --> 01:09:55,598
Three?
1439
01:09:55,733 --> 01:09:57,395
Hadleigh offered a sum
that's fair market value
1440
01:09:57,527 --> 01:10:00,019
- for the property.
- It's perfectly fair.
1441
01:10:00,154 --> 01:10:03,693
But Saint James' value can't be
measured only in dollars.
1442
01:10:03,825 --> 01:10:05,942
The court has no standard for
determining intrinsic value.
1443
01:10:06,077 --> 01:10:09,241
Your Honor, Saint James
has had a positive impact
1444
01:10:09,372 --> 01:10:10,988
on this community
for generations.
1445
01:10:11,124 --> 01:10:13,912
The university concedes the
plaintiff is not without merit,
1446
01:10:14,043 --> 01:10:16,706
but we question the relevancy
to this case.
1447
01:10:16,838 --> 01:10:17,828
May I say something?
1448
01:10:17,964 --> 01:10:19,876
Well, you brought the lawsuit.
1449
01:10:20,007 --> 01:10:21,964
If you want to assess
the value of the church
1450
01:10:22,093 --> 01:10:24,631
to this community,
just turn on the news.
1451
01:10:24,762 --> 01:10:28,346
The community is speaking...
loudly.
1452
01:10:29,767 --> 01:10:32,054
PEARCE: This is what victory
feels like.
1453
01:10:32,186 --> 01:10:33,973
We're going to court.
1454
01:10:34,105 --> 01:10:36,017
Come on, man,
this is a big win.
1455
01:10:36,149 --> 01:10:37,640
Be happy.
1456
01:10:37,775 --> 01:10:39,311
Ow.
1457
01:10:39,444 --> 01:10:40,901
- Be happy!
- Stop it.
1458
01:10:41,028 --> 01:10:41,984
Be happy.
1459
01:10:42,113 --> 01:10:43,524
Ow! Will you just...
1460
01:10:43,656 --> 01:10:46,023
Be happy. Oh!
There's my little brother!
1461
01:10:46,159 --> 01:10:47,946
No, I'm not happy
suing my friend.
1462
01:10:48,077 --> 01:10:49,363
I'm not happy suing anybody.
1463
01:10:49,495 --> 01:10:51,077
(sighs) Okay.
1464
01:10:51,205 --> 01:10:54,039
Well, number one, Tom Ellsworth
is not your friend.
1465
01:10:54,167 --> 01:10:56,124
And number two,
I'm going to bed
1466
01:10:56,252 --> 01:10:58,039
'cause you're a buzzkill.
1467
01:11:03,551 --> 01:11:05,543
ROLAND:
Paul tells us that...
1468
01:11:05,678 --> 01:11:07,635
even if you can speak
the language
1469
01:11:07,764 --> 01:11:12,509
of both man and angels,
if you lack love,
1470
01:11:12,643 --> 01:11:13,804
brothers and sisters,
1471
01:11:13,936 --> 01:11:16,474
you're just making
a lot of noise.
1472
01:11:16,606 --> 01:11:20,190
Maybe you're the world's
smartest person
1473
01:11:20,318 --> 01:11:24,312
and you have a great faith
that can move mountains
1474
01:11:24,447 --> 01:11:26,780
or you give all your money
to the poor
1475
01:11:26,908 --> 01:11:30,026
or you give your body over
to hardship.
1476
01:11:30,161 --> 01:11:33,825
My Bible says, without love,
1477
01:11:33,956 --> 01:11:36,414
you say nothing.
1478
01:11:36,542 --> 01:11:40,286
Without love, you gain nothing.
1479
01:11:40,421 --> 01:11:42,629
Without love,
1480
01:11:42,757 --> 01:11:45,545
- you are nothing.
- (cell phone buzzing)
1481
01:11:57,396 --> 01:11:59,683
(grabs keys)
1482
01:11:59,816 --> 01:12:02,433
(indistinct chatter)
1483
01:12:02,568 --> 01:12:04,275
Hey, Adam.
1484
01:12:04,403 --> 01:12:06,520
- Hey.
- Pastor Dave?
1485
01:12:06,656 --> 01:12:07,988
Is it true?
1486
01:12:08,115 --> 01:12:09,651
I don't... I don't know...
1487
01:12:09,784 --> 01:12:11,116
- Is it? Tell me.
- Adam!
1488
01:12:11,244 --> 01:12:13,531
- (grunting)
- (onlookers gasping)
1489
01:12:13,663 --> 01:12:15,780
- You killed Jude, didn't you?
- MAN: Hey, hey, hey.
1490
01:12:15,915 --> 01:12:17,406
- Take it easy, pal.
- Get off of me! Get off of me!
1491
01:12:19,460 --> 01:12:21,042
KEATON:
What is wrong with you?
1492
01:12:24,131 --> 01:12:26,123
MAN:
Hey, man, what's going on?
1493
01:12:26,259 --> 01:12:28,296
(indistinct chatter)
1494
01:12:30,513 --> 01:12:32,505
That is messed up.
1495
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,007
(indistinct radio transmission)
1496
01:12:40,857 --> 01:12:42,723
(machine beeping)
1497
01:12:44,068 --> 01:12:45,354
Sign with that pen.
1498
01:12:45,486 --> 01:12:46,727
What am I signing?
1499
01:12:46,863 --> 01:12:48,149
Just saying I just took
your fingerprints
1500
01:12:48,281 --> 01:12:49,397
and you're just
being booked in.
1501
01:12:49,532 --> 01:12:51,068
Is this, like, a mug shot?
1502
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:52,736
Yes.
1503
01:12:52,869 --> 01:12:55,077
REPORTER:
After a shocking confrontation
1504
01:12:55,204 --> 01:12:58,322
by Reverend David Hill on
Hadleigh campus, the suspect
1505
01:12:58,457 --> 01:13:00,540
has been identified
as 21-year-old
1506
01:13:00,668 --> 01:13:03,081
Hadleigh student
Adam Richertson.
1507
01:13:03,212 --> 01:13:05,374
The college senior
has no criminal record
1508
01:13:05,506 --> 01:13:07,247
and no history of violence,
1509
01:13:07,383 --> 01:13:09,249
which has left
many people wondering
1510
01:13:09,385 --> 01:13:12,503
what inspired this deadly
attack on a church.
1511
01:13:14,223 --> 01:13:15,384
(sniffling)
1512
01:13:16,893 --> 01:13:18,885
I'm so sorry.
1513
01:13:22,857 --> 01:13:25,144
TEO:
This is beyond messed up.
1514
01:13:25,276 --> 01:13:26,392
I know Adam.
1515
01:13:26,527 --> 01:13:29,270
He's a good dude... sincerely.
1516
01:13:29,405 --> 01:13:32,898
And Pastor Dave needs to take
a page from his own book.
1517
01:13:33,034 --> 01:13:34,320
So, you know what?
1518
01:13:34,452 --> 01:13:36,239
We're having a protest
Friday night.
1519
01:13:36,370 --> 01:13:37,531
Saint James.
1520
01:13:37,663 --> 01:13:39,529
Make sure your voice is heard.
1521
01:13:39,665 --> 01:13:41,247
Be there. Be mad.
1522
01:13:41,375 --> 01:13:45,119
'Cause this fight
is far from over.
1523
01:13:47,465 --> 01:13:49,206
Have you seen this?
1524
01:13:51,218 --> 01:13:52,834
TOM:
Media works both ways.
1525
01:13:52,970 --> 01:13:55,178
This gives us a real shot.
1526
01:13:55,306 --> 01:13:56,842
Get the team working on it.
1527
01:13:56,974 --> 01:14:00,388
I'm gonna send a gift basket
to Reverend Dave.
1528
01:14:03,940 --> 01:14:05,727
TOM:
We condemn
1529
01:14:05,858 --> 01:14:09,442
the hateful actions
of Adam Richertson
1530
01:14:09,570 --> 01:14:12,859
in the strongest
possible terms.
1531
01:14:12,990 --> 01:14:14,822
They do not represent
the values
1532
01:14:14,951 --> 01:14:17,284
of our esteemed
Hadleigh University.
1533
01:14:17,411 --> 01:14:20,870
We will not stand for violence
or discrimination
1534
01:14:20,998 --> 01:14:23,832
in any form, of any people,
1535
01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:28,045
regardless of their religious
backgrounds and beliefs.
1536
01:14:28,172 --> 01:14:31,210
We've taken the immediate steps
to expel Mr. Richertson,
1537
01:14:31,342 --> 01:14:33,334
and we have encouraged
the state
1538
01:14:33,469 --> 01:14:37,588
to prosecute him to
the fullest extent of the law.
1539
01:14:37,723 --> 01:14:40,306
None of this, however,
1540
01:14:40,434 --> 01:14:44,178
should excuse the actions
of Reverend Dave Hill.
1541
01:14:44,313 --> 01:14:48,603
His outburst has made
our position stronger:
1542
01:14:48,734 --> 01:14:51,067
that Saint James Church
has become
1543
01:14:51,195 --> 01:14:54,108
a beacon of violence
and controversy,
1544
01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:57,779
and it has no place here
1545
01:14:57,910 --> 01:15:00,243
on Hadleigh University campus.
1546
01:15:00,371 --> 01:15:01,907
Good day.
1547
01:15:02,039 --> 01:15:03,405
(reporters shouting questions)
1548
01:15:08,004 --> 01:15:09,540
So, Reverend Hill
goes after Ellsworth.
1549
01:15:09,672 --> 01:15:11,004
Now Ellsworth fires back.
1550
01:15:11,132 --> 01:15:12,794
And meanwhile,
this kid Adam Richertson
1551
01:15:12,925 --> 01:15:14,382
is caught in the crossfire.
1552
01:15:14,510 --> 01:15:16,467
- Judge, this kid killed somebody.
- Oh, come on.
1553
01:15:16,595 --> 01:15:18,507
- It was an accident. Everybody knows that.
- Can't forget it.
1554
01:15:18,639 --> 01:15:19,595
Look, a judge and jury's
gonna decide that.
1555
01:15:19,724 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaking of judge and jury,
1556
01:15:20,891 --> 01:15:22,302
who's gonna hold this reverend
accountable?
1557
01:15:22,435 --> 01:15:23,971
Okay, there's a big difference
between a death,
1558
01:15:24,103 --> 01:15:25,719
okay, and-and a fight,
but this reverend
1559
01:15:25,855 --> 01:15:27,642
did attack this kid,
and now he's
1560
01:15:27,773 --> 01:15:29,765
calling for the kid
to get put away for 30 years?
1561
01:15:29,900 --> 01:15:31,266
- That's insane.
- Well, and there you have it.
1562
01:15:31,402 --> 01:15:33,394
Both sides
are totally fired up.
1563
01:15:33,529 --> 01:15:35,816
Huge protest is planned
for the weekend.
1564
01:15:35,948 --> 01:15:37,564
And this is teed up
for disaster.
1565
01:15:37,700 --> 01:15:39,692
That's the sign of the times,
isn't it?
1566
01:15:39,827 --> 01:15:41,034
Everybody's yelling.
1567
01:15:41,162 --> 01:15:42,619
- Nobody's listening.
- Absolutely.
1568
01:15:43,914 --> 01:15:45,030
KEATON:
It doesn't make sense.
1569
01:15:45,166 --> 01:15:46,577
Nothing makes sense.
1570
01:15:47,877 --> 01:15:50,665
Adam never meant
to hurt anyone.
1571
01:15:50,796 --> 01:15:54,039
I'm not saying he shouldn't
own up to what he did, but...
1572
01:15:54,175 --> 01:15:56,337
I just don't see
God's mercy here.
1573
01:15:56,469 --> 01:15:58,131
Especially not
from Pastor Dave.
1574
01:15:58,262 --> 01:15:59,878
He's human, Keaton.
1575
01:16:00,014 --> 01:16:01,971
Yeah, but he's supposed
to be a man of God.
1576
01:16:02,099 --> 01:16:03,840
What kind of example is that?
1577
01:16:03,976 --> 01:16:05,308
I mean, if being a Christian
1578
01:16:05,436 --> 01:16:07,143
doesn't affect
the way we act, then...
1579
01:16:08,647 --> 01:16:11,390
...how do we actually know
that our values
1580
01:16:11,525 --> 01:16:14,518
and beliefs are any more valid
than anyone else's?
1581
01:16:16,655 --> 01:16:18,021
(scoffs)
1582
01:16:18,157 --> 01:16:20,194
Can I show you something?
1583
01:16:24,288 --> 01:16:27,372
A friend sent this to me
when I was in high school.
1584
01:16:32,505 --> 01:16:34,713
(chuckles)
1585
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:36,706
It was inspiring.
1586
01:16:36,842 --> 01:16:38,049
It's why I came to Hadleigh.
1587
01:16:38,177 --> 01:16:39,884
I wanted to be
a part of something.
1588
01:16:40,012 --> 01:16:41,969
At the time, I'd never even
1589
01:16:42,098 --> 01:16:45,466
considered that God
could be dead.
1590
01:16:48,521 --> 01:16:50,854
But now...
1591
01:16:54,318 --> 01:16:55,684
It's okay, Keaton.
1592
01:16:55,820 --> 01:16:58,733
It's good to ask
difficult questions.
1593
01:16:58,864 --> 01:17:00,230
God can use it.
1594
01:17:00,366 --> 01:17:02,904
He's not afraid
of your uncertainty.
1595
01:17:03,035 --> 01:17:04,992
But I am.
1596
01:17:06,539 --> 01:17:09,122
You know, I... I think
about John the Baptist.
1597
01:17:09,250 --> 01:17:12,414
If anyone should've been sure
about Jesus, it was him.
1598
01:17:12,545 --> 01:17:14,787
And John said,
"I've seen, and I testify
1599
01:17:14,922 --> 01:17:17,380
that this is the Son of God."
1600
01:17:17,508 --> 01:17:21,843
And then he got locked up
in Herod's little jail cell,
1601
01:17:21,971 --> 01:17:23,428
and the doubts started messing
with his head.
1602
01:17:23,556 --> 01:17:25,013
"What if I'm wrong
about this Jesus guy?
1603
01:17:25,141 --> 01:17:26,803
"What if all the stories
I've heard about him
1604
01:17:26,934 --> 01:17:28,846
healing people...
what if it's just ridiculous?"
1605
01:17:28,978 --> 01:17:30,389
So John sent
some of his friends
1606
01:17:30,521 --> 01:17:33,434
to watch Jesus and report back.
1607
01:17:33,566 --> 01:17:38,277
And Jesus told them, "Tell John
what you've seen and heard.
1608
01:17:38,404 --> 01:17:41,021
"The blind receive their sight.
1609
01:17:41,157 --> 01:17:42,614
"The lame walk.
1610
01:17:42,741 --> 01:17:44,403
"The lepers are cleansed.
1611
01:17:44,535 --> 01:17:46,401
The deaf hear."
1612
01:17:46,537 --> 01:17:48,199
John needed to doubt.
1613
01:17:48,330 --> 01:17:50,037
Why, though?
1614
01:17:50,166 --> 01:17:54,410
Because... uncertainty led
to the pursuit of truth.
1615
01:17:57,423 --> 01:18:00,131
I know it hurts...
1616
01:18:00,259 --> 01:18:02,296
to be in the fire.
1617
01:18:03,762 --> 01:18:05,924
And as painful and...
1618
01:18:06,056 --> 01:18:08,673
confusing as all of this is,
1619
01:18:08,809 --> 01:18:12,723
it just might be exactly
where God wants you right now.
1620
01:18:16,984 --> 01:18:18,270
Well, it ain't good.
1621
01:18:18,402 --> 01:18:19,609
Public opinion,
your reputation...
1622
01:18:19,737 --> 01:18:21,273
it's all gonna take a hit.
1623
01:18:21,405 --> 01:18:23,237
I guess we'll have
to wait and see.
1624
01:18:23,365 --> 01:18:25,857
The kid confessed, so...
that helps.
1625
01:18:25,993 --> 01:18:27,985
I just... I want to know
what you were thinking.
1626
01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:29,907
I wasn't thinking, obviously.
1627
01:18:30,039 --> 01:18:32,406
You get an anonymous text,
then you go nuts on somebody?
1628
01:18:32,541 --> 01:18:35,659
I'm not interested
in rehashing this, okay?
1629
01:18:38,088 --> 01:18:40,205
Sorry, folks.
1630
01:18:41,550 --> 01:18:43,507
(door closes)
1631
01:18:45,179 --> 01:18:47,262
(car alarm blaring)
1632
01:18:50,601 --> 01:18:53,014
- (chirps, alarm stops)
- What's going on with you?
1633
01:18:53,145 --> 01:18:55,102
I'm a mess.
I don't know what I'm doing,
1634
01:18:55,231 --> 01:18:56,722
I don't know what God
wants me to do,
1635
01:18:56,857 --> 01:18:58,644
and I don't know why any
of this is even happening.
1636
01:18:58,776 --> 01:19:00,517
- First, you gotta settle down.
- Oh, I'm sure...
1637
01:19:00,653 --> 01:19:02,565
I'm sure this is fun for you.
You get a front-row seat
1638
01:19:02,696 --> 01:19:05,154
to watch your little brother,
Dave, just self-destruct.
1639
01:19:05,282 --> 01:19:07,820
That's probably why you drove
down here in the first place.
1640
01:19:12,957 --> 01:19:14,664
Where are you going?
1641
01:19:14,792 --> 01:19:16,328
Oh, I'm walking.
1642
01:19:16,460 --> 01:19:17,667
You can't.
1643
01:19:17,795 --> 01:19:19,957
- Watch me.
- Pearce.
1644
01:19:21,465 --> 01:19:22,751
What?
1645
01:19:24,009 --> 01:19:26,296
You have the car keys.
1646
01:19:40,818 --> 01:19:42,775
♪♪
1647
01:20:05,467 --> 01:20:06,958
Dave.
1648
01:20:07,094 --> 01:20:08,881
Hey, Roland.
1649
01:20:10,472 --> 01:20:12,338
How you doing?
1650
01:20:12,474 --> 01:20:14,010
Doing all right.
1651
01:20:14,143 --> 01:20:19,013
You're sure on TV a lot
for someone doing all right.
1652
01:20:19,148 --> 01:20:20,889
All this business
with Tom Ellsworth.
1653
01:20:21,025 --> 01:20:22,891
And now the boy.
1654
01:20:23,027 --> 01:20:24,689
Well, I didn't ask
for this fight.
1655
01:20:24,820 --> 01:20:27,813
Mm, that's a fact,
but here it is.
1656
01:20:27,948 --> 01:20:30,736
Keep your eye
on what's important.
1657
01:20:30,868 --> 01:20:33,576
I think what's important
is that Christians stop
1658
01:20:33,704 --> 01:20:35,787
rolling over all the time.
1659
01:20:35,914 --> 01:20:37,826
When is it our right to fight?
1660
01:20:37,958 --> 01:20:39,745
I'm tired of being
pushed around.
1661
01:20:39,877 --> 01:20:41,459
I'm tired
of turning the other cheek.
1662
01:20:41,587 --> 01:20:43,579
Oh, so now you're tired.
1663
01:20:43,714 --> 01:20:46,252
A minute ago,
you were doing all right.
1664
01:20:46,383 --> 01:20:47,965
I'm just saying,
I think it's time
1665
01:20:48,093 --> 01:20:49,925
that Christians stand up
for themselves.
1666
01:20:52,056 --> 01:20:53,388
(Roland sighs)
1667
01:20:53,515 --> 01:20:55,632
Well...
1668
01:20:55,768 --> 01:20:59,227
people were drawn to Jesus
because of His...
1669
01:20:59,355 --> 01:21:01,221
His love.
1670
01:21:01,357 --> 01:21:03,895
His patience and kindness.
1671
01:21:04,026 --> 01:21:06,939
He managed to preach the truth
1672
01:21:07,071 --> 01:21:09,859
without losing Himself
in the bargain.
1673
01:21:09,990 --> 01:21:11,856
He was gentle with the meek
1674
01:21:11,992 --> 01:21:15,281
and hard as a rock
with the arrogant.
1675
01:21:15,412 --> 01:21:19,907
And when He talked to
the foolish, He was patient
1676
01:21:20,042 --> 01:21:23,706
and never became
a fool Himself.
1677
01:21:23,837 --> 01:21:26,875
And He was never proud, David.
1678
01:21:27,007 --> 01:21:30,876
This has nothing to do
with pride, Roland.
1679
01:21:31,011 --> 01:21:34,504
And no offense, but maybe you'd
understand a little better
1680
01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:36,597
if you were the one
being attacked.
1681
01:21:36,725 --> 01:21:39,433
Brother, who do you think
you're talking to?
1682
01:21:39,561 --> 01:21:41,427
I'm a black preacher
in the Deep South.
1683
01:21:41,563 --> 01:21:43,600
I could build you a church
with all the bricks
1684
01:21:43,732 --> 01:21:45,849
been thrown through my windows.
1685
01:21:47,486 --> 01:21:50,103
You're right. I'm sorry.
1686
01:21:52,324 --> 01:21:54,782
You gotta work
through the pain.
1687
01:21:57,413 --> 01:22:01,202
We cannot respond to hate
with more hate.
1688
01:22:01,333 --> 01:22:04,826
And don't forget.
1689
01:22:06,046 --> 01:22:09,255
We are called to be a light
1690
01:22:09,383 --> 01:22:11,841
in the darkness.
1691
01:22:21,395 --> 01:22:23,057
I miss Jude.
1692
01:22:25,983 --> 01:22:27,474
(sniffles)
1693
01:22:29,570 --> 01:22:31,903
And I miss You, too, Lord.
1694
01:22:34,992 --> 01:22:37,780
I'm trying to do
the right thing. I just...
1695
01:22:40,831 --> 01:22:43,539
I don't know
what that is anymore.
1696
01:22:48,881 --> 01:22:50,543
Hey there.
1697
01:22:50,674 --> 01:22:52,836
Just checking on you.
1698
01:22:54,136 --> 01:22:55,468
I saw the news.
1699
01:22:55,596 --> 01:22:58,714
I can't imagine
what you're feeling.
1700
01:22:58,849 --> 01:23:00,966
I'd like to see you.
1701
01:23:01,101 --> 01:23:03,684
How about a little adventure?
1702
01:23:03,812 --> 01:23:06,395
Um, I'm gonna send you
a drop pin.
1703
01:23:06,523 --> 01:23:08,856
I'll meet you there in an hour?
1704
01:23:11,195 --> 01:23:13,403
It's my church
away from church.
1705
01:23:13,530 --> 01:23:16,068
It's where I come
to be alone with God.
1706
01:23:18,118 --> 01:23:20,656
- I can see why.
- Mm-hmm.
1707
01:23:22,956 --> 01:23:24,913
What do you got there?
1708
01:23:26,460 --> 01:23:28,918
I light a candle
for people I'm praying for.
1709
01:23:30,005 --> 01:23:31,621
Uh...
1710
01:23:31,757 --> 01:23:33,544
folks I meet at the restaurant,
1711
01:23:33,675 --> 01:23:35,758
friends from A.A.
1712
01:23:36,845 --> 01:23:37,961
You.
1713
01:23:42,142 --> 01:23:46,182
I just love the way He uses
other people in our lives to...
1714
01:23:46,313 --> 01:23:48,100
to bring us comfort.
1715
01:23:48,232 --> 01:23:52,647
To remind us that we're loved.
1716
01:23:55,239 --> 01:23:57,947
I think you need
to be reminded right now.
1717
01:24:00,702 --> 01:24:03,035
God is here.
1718
01:24:04,164 --> 01:24:05,700
I'm here.
1719
01:24:07,501 --> 01:24:09,333
And you're loved.
1720
01:24:21,723 --> 01:24:23,555
(door opens)
1721
01:24:23,684 --> 01:24:25,550
(door closes)
1722
01:24:27,229 --> 01:24:29,767
I thought you were out
with Meg.
1723
01:24:29,898 --> 01:24:31,764
You screw that up, too?
1724
01:24:31,900 --> 01:24:33,687
What are you doing?
1725
01:24:33,819 --> 01:24:36,186
Listen, I'm gonna fly back
to Chicago tonight.
1726
01:24:36,321 --> 01:24:38,108
I left you the name
and, uh, number
1727
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:39,731
of an attorney friend of mine.
1728
01:24:39,866 --> 01:24:42,404
She'll take good care of you.
My treat.
1729
01:24:42,536 --> 01:24:44,653
Why? Just because
we had an argument?
1730
01:24:44,788 --> 01:24:47,246
- It's just time.
- Pearce, are you kidding me?
1731
01:24:48,375 --> 01:24:49,866
(chuckles)
1732
01:24:50,002 --> 01:24:51,459
You know what?
1733
01:24:51,587 --> 01:24:53,123
Go ahead.
1734
01:24:53,255 --> 01:24:55,918
Oh, I haven't done enough
for you, huh?
1735
01:24:56,049 --> 01:24:57,756
Come down here,
put my life on hold,
1736
01:24:57,884 --> 01:24:59,671
but I'm the bad guy now
'cause I'm bailing?
1737
01:24:59,803 --> 01:25:01,294
Is that it?
1738
01:25:01,430 --> 01:25:03,171
Let's not get into it.
It's not worth it.
1739
01:25:03,307 --> 01:25:05,299
No, I-I think it's worth it.
Let's get into it.
1740
01:25:05,434 --> 01:25:07,426
It's water under the bridge.
1741
01:25:07,561 --> 01:25:09,268
I forgave you years ago.
1742
01:25:09,396 --> 01:25:10,728
You forgave me?
1743
01:25:10,856 --> 01:25:12,848
For what exactly? For leaving?
1744
01:25:12,983 --> 01:25:14,144
You forced me out.
1745
01:25:14,276 --> 01:25:15,517
You and Mom and Dad.
All you.
1746
01:25:15,652 --> 01:25:17,314
Give me a break.
No one forced you out.
1747
01:25:17,446 --> 01:25:18,562
Oh, yes, you did.
1748
01:25:18,697 --> 01:25:19,938
I wasn't welcome in this house
1749
01:25:20,073 --> 01:25:21,405
once I started asking
tough questions.
1750
01:25:21,533 --> 01:25:23,525
Is that what they were?
Tough questions?
1751
01:25:23,660 --> 01:25:25,572
Oh, "Why does God allow
bad things
1752
01:25:25,704 --> 01:25:26,990
to happen to good people?"
1753
01:25:27,122 --> 01:25:28,658
Or, "How do we even know
God exists?"
1754
01:25:28,790 --> 01:25:29,997
Really?

01:38:51,342 --> 01:38:53,379
if you roll over
for your enemies.
1933
01:38:53,511 --> 01:38:55,252
Now, I don't think
that Reverend Hill rolled over.
1934
01:38:55,388 --> 01:38:56,720
I think that he saw people
suffering
1935
01:38:56,848 --> 01:38:58,180
and he made a sacrifice
for them.
1936
01:38:58,307 --> 01:39:00,173
Surely, the parallels
to Christianity
1937
01:39:00,309 --> 01:39:02,892
are not lost on you.
1938
01:39:03,020 --> 01:39:05,512
So, I mean, call it
a publicity stunt if you want,
1939
01:39:05,648 --> 01:39:06,855
but we were there.
1940
01:39:06,983 --> 01:39:08,599
I mean, this dude's legit.
1941
01:39:08,734 --> 01:39:10,191
He would have won.
1942
01:39:10,319 --> 01:39:11,901
He could have given Hadleigh
the finger,
1943
01:39:12,029 --> 01:39:13,520
but he handed it back.
1944
01:39:13,656 --> 01:39:15,192
He cares more about
this community than winning.
1945
01:39:15,324 --> 01:39:16,405
I believe that.
1946
01:39:16,534 --> 01:39:18,070
Perhaps the rest of the country
1947
01:39:18,202 --> 01:39:20,239
can take a page from this book.
1948
01:39:20,371 --> 01:39:22,033
SECRETARY:
Your 2:00 is here.
1949
01:39:22,165 --> 01:39:23,781
Send her in, Charlotte.
1950
01:39:24,959 --> 01:39:26,416
Hey. Let me guess.
1951
01:39:26,544 --> 01:39:28,831
You're probably on
another phone interview.
1952
01:39:28,963 --> 01:39:30,920
Listen, if you're going to do
the media circuit thing,
1953
01:39:31,048 --> 01:39:33,210
why don't you get
a big-boy haircut,
1954
01:39:33,342 --> 01:39:35,834
get Meg to take you
clothes shopping.
1955
01:39:35,970 --> 01:39:39,008
Um, give me a call when you get
your head above water.
1956
01:39:39,140 --> 01:39:42,508
I want to hear about the plans
for the new digs.
1957
01:39:45,563 --> 01:39:47,771
I'm proud of you,
little brother.
1958
01:39:49,150 --> 01:39:50,812
Take care, David.
1959
01:40:07,835 --> 01:40:09,872
- Hi.
- Hey.
1960
01:40:19,055 --> 01:40:20,967
(cheering)
1961
01:40:22,058 --> 01:40:23,845
(Tom chuckling)
1962
01:40:25,269 --> 01:40:26,635
Congratulations.
1963
01:40:26,771 --> 01:40:28,057
(laughing)
1964
01:40:28,189 --> 01:40:29,396
- I think you're going to love it here.
- Thank you.
1965
01:40:29,524 --> 01:40:30,810
Thank you.
1966
01:40:30,942 --> 01:40:33,104
(low, indistinct chatter)
1967
01:40:34,862 --> 01:40:36,524
DAVE:
You know what I was thinking?
1968
01:40:36,656 --> 01:40:38,192
What's that?
1969
01:40:38,324 --> 01:40:40,941
Jude was right.
1970
01:40:41,077 --> 01:40:42,864
God is good.
1971
01:40:44,163 --> 01:40:45,779
All the time.
1972
01:40:47,041 --> 01:40:48,828
And all the time...
1973
01:40:50,127 --> 01:40:52,210
God is good.
1974
01:40:56,050 --> 01:40:58,292
KEATON:
I can hear You again.
1975
01:40:58,427 --> 01:41:03,297
And even though I know
You were never really gone...
1976
01:41:05,351 --> 01:41:07,889

2054
01:44:58,626 --> 01:45:00,743
I'm Michael Tait
of the Newsboys.
2055
01:45:00,878 --> 01:45:03,040
The cure
to what plagues our world
2056
01:45:03,172 --> 01:45:05,505
isn't more division
or finger pointing.
2057
01:45:05,633 --> 01:45:07,590
It's hope and unity.
2058
01:45:07,718 --> 01:45:10,210
And letting Christ's love
shine through us.
2059
01:45:10,346 --> 01:45:12,463
The beauty of the human race
2060
01:45:12,598 --> 01:45:15,966
is found in the diversity
of the human race.
2061
01:45:16,101 --> 01:45:17,683
Let's celebrate this.
2062
01:45:17,812 --> 01:45:20,099
Since the very first
God's Not Dead movie,
2063
01:45:20,231 --> 01:45:22,314
we set out
to inspire a movement
2064
01:45:22,441 --> 01:45:26,526
to show God is alive
and still working today.
2065
01:45:26,654 --> 01:45:29,818
It's not easy to see in a world
of division and anger and pain,
2066
01:45:29,949 --> 01:45:33,283
but God remains good
all the time.
2067
01:45:33,410 --> 01:45:35,868
We just need to show it
through our words,
2068
01:45:35,996 --> 01:45:38,409
our actions and our love.
2069
01:45:38,541 --> 01:45:41,830
It's our chance to be
a light in darkness.
2070
01:45:41,961 --> 01:45:43,577
So let's start right now.
2071
01:45:43,712 --> 01:45:47,205
As you leave the theaters,
share a message of integrity
2072
01:45:47,341 --> 01:45:51,255
and unity with your family
and friends on social media
2073
01:45:51,387 --> 01:45:54,050
with the hashtag #GodsNotDead
2074
01:45:54,181 --> 01:45:56,468
and by downloading
the God's Not Dead app.
2075
01:45:56,600 --> 01:46:01,061
Together, we can create a wave
of hope and inspiration online.
2076
01:46:01,188 --> 01:46:04,522
Our world desperately needs
to see the light.
2077
01:46:04,650 --> 01:46:05,891
Let's share it.
2078
01:46:06,026 --> 01:46:07,142
Let's be it.
2079
01:46:07,278 --> 01:46:08,564
God bless you.
