We're continuing our series. There will be giants. I promised you, we've already seen the best of David. Now, David's gonna start to fall apart. And this is something that, actually people love. We love this. It's not something that we should be proud of, but we do love, we rub or neck, right? When we see an accident on the freeway, everyone slows down to look and see how violent and terrible it is. And then we say something like, oh, that's awful, but secretly in our hearts, we're kind of like, man, this is cool. And then we're like, oh, but I hope no one really got hurt. This is especially true with celebrities and people who are famous. And so, this week we heard that Alec Baldwin, right? He, there was an accident on the set and he shot with a, it was supposed to be a blank, but it wasn't, it was a live round and it killed one of his assistant directors and injured the director of his film. And we're all pretending like we think this is just a tragedy, but secretly, the people who can't stand Alec Baldwin are like, finally he's getting what he deserves, you know? And then the people who love Alec Baldwin are like, oh, this is just, this is awful. And what's sad is that in the midst of all this, we miss the victims, right? We barely have a thought for the people who get hurt. This is no different in Christian in the world of the church. Everybody loves, it's juicy, it's salacious when like a famous leader guy, you know, he does something awful and ruins his ministry and there's a total collapse of his church. There's a podcast right now about Mark Driscoll who was the pastor of Mars Hill in Seattle. It's very famous and people, the whole podcast is about how the whole thing melted down and it's compelling, it's interesting, it's fascinating. And the reason it's fascinating is why because you know, these people, they're famous, they have this incredible rise to success and power and they're doing all these amazing things. And then there's this huge crash and it's just like, man, I mean, that's news. David is gonna crash today.
