00:00What's going on? What's going on, Zyta Station?
00:01So we're still reading the daily readings here.
00:03So we're reading 2 Corinthians 5, 14 through 17.
00:06Brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, the love of Christ impels us.
00:11Interesting that he used the word impel instead of compel.
00:13What does impel mean?
00:17The power of Christ compels you.
00:23Impel like impala.
00:27Pretty cool cat, man.
00:35Is that a cat? I think it's a cat.
00:41I was reading about cheetahs.
00:43Because cheetahs, they went through a bottleneck thousands of years ago.
00:49I don't know how long ago it was.
00:50But pretty much all cheetahs are genetic clones.
00:54Because the number of cheetahs dwindled down to like 6 cheetahs.
00:58So compared to all other mammals, cheetahs are like...
01:08They are pretty much unique because they're...
01:18Impel, drive, force, or urge someone to do something.
01:27What does compel mean?
01:37To force, drive, or strongly urge someone to do something.
01:40Compel.
01:40They mean the same thing.
01:45Brothers and sisters, the love of Christ impels us.
01:48Once we have come to the conviction that one died for all,
01:52therefore all have died.
01:53He indeed died for all at sea.
01:56Let's look that up.
01:57Everyone wanted to hear about that.
01:59Jesus said look that up then.
02:01Yeah, that's a cool thing to think about.
02:07I would normally look it up on Grok, but they have a high volume.
02:13Cheetah bottleneck.
02:13The cheetah bottleneck refers to two catastrophic population crashes in the species history
02:18that reduced their genetic diversity by roughly 90%.
02:21Because they share nearly identical DNA, modern cheetahs suffer from poor sperm quality,
02:27increased vulnerability to disease, and physical defects like kinked tails and asymmetrical skulls.
02:32The cheetah genetic journey unfolded over thousands of years.
02:35The first bottleneck, 100,000 years ago, cheetah ancestors migrated out of North America
02:40into Asia, Europe, and Africa via the Bering Land Bridge.
02:44The harsh migration forced extreme inbreeding, severely limiting the gene pool.
02:48Yeah, the Lord said, are you going to look up the American lion or the American cheetah?
02:51No.
02:52Just leave it at this and don't ask.
02:54The second bottleneck.
02:55It's pretty cool that America had lions, though.
02:57They were big.
02:58I think they were bigger.
02:59Yeah.
03:00I did.
03:01Yeah, when I was working at, I don't know, Challenge or whatever.
03:04I don't know when I was doing that, but I was looking up stuff like that.
03:08The second bottleneck, 12,000 years ago, the end of the last ice age and rapid climate change,
03:13wiped out cheetahs in North, and who cares when you did what?
03:16I don't know.
03:17For some reason I said that.
03:20Wiped out cheetahs in North.
03:22I don't know why I said it's in North.
03:24Yeah, typo.
03:25In Europe, leaving a tiny surviving population in Africa and Asia, possibly as few as seven individuals.
03:29Because of these historic events, any mating pairs today are essentially functioning as siblings genetically,
03:35which causes persistent inbreeding depression.
03:38Today, only about 7,000 cheetahs remain in the wild, and they are classified as vulnerable on the IUCN red
03:44list.
03:48So it's amazing that they came back.
03:50Yeah, it's pretty cool animals, man.
03:54God bless the cheetahs and don't ask.
04:09God said, because I prayed for the cheetahs from the bottom of my heart,
04:12he'll make sure they never die off and don't ask.
04:16Brothers and sisters, the love of Christ impels us.
04:19Once we have come to the conviction that one died for all...
04:22Yeah, there's a lot to read about regarding cheetahs.
04:23You should watch a nature documentary about them.
04:27That one died for all, therefore all have died.
04:29He indeed died for all,
04:31so that those who live might no longer live for themselves.
04:36Incense smells good.
04:37But for him who for their sake died and was raised.
04:41Yeah, it's almost time to let another one lose.
04:46Consequently, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh,
04:50even if we once knew Christ according to the flesh.
04:52Yet now we know him so no longer.
04:57So whoever is in Christ is a new creation.
04:59The old things have passed away.
05:01Behold, new things have come.
05:04Yeah.
05:05I start reading it like that.
05:06Never.
05:14Yeah.
05:15Jesus said he was pleased with my reading,
05:17and don't ask, and he blessed me forever.
05:18Never.
05:25Yeah, Paula was angry that I didn't talk about cheetahs with her on her date.
05:28Well, we had other things to talk about, Paula.
05:37We'll talk about more things next time.
05:39Love saw that I removed her from her original next day and put Caitlyn there.
05:45Yeah.
05:47And I ended up re-adding her this morning to another day.
05:49Yeah, it was about a week later or so.
05:51I don't know how long later.
05:53Yeah, how much after that it was.
05:55She'll have another day, though.
05:55Love, Caitlyn.
05:56We'll have another day together.
05:57We'll have more days together.
06:03Responsorial Psalm.
06:04Psalm 62, 2, 3-4, 5-6, 8-9.
06:09My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord, my God.
06:12O God, you are my God whom I seek.
06:16For you, my flesh pines and my soul thirsts,
06:19like the earth parched, lifeless and without water.
06:23My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord, my God.
06:27Thus have I gazed toward you in the sanctuary,
06:30to see your power and your glory.
06:32For your kindness is a greater good than life.
06:35My lips shall glorify you.
06:38My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord, my God.
06:41Thus will I bless you while I live.
06:44Lifting up my hands, I will call upon your name.
06:47As with the riches of a banquet shall my soul be satisfied.
06:51And with exultant lips my mouth shall praise you.
06:55My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord, my God.
06:59You are my help.
07:00And in the shadow of your wings I shout for joy.
07:04My soul clings fast to you.
07:06Your right hand upholds me.
07:09My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord, my God.
07:14Alleluia, alleluia.
07:15Tell us, Mary, what did you see on the way?
07:18I saw the glory of the risen Christ.
07:20I saw his empty tomb.
07:22Alleluia, alleluia.
07:25John, the gospel of the Lord.
07:26John 20, 1 through 2, 11 through 18.
07:28They said, I thought you weren't going to say it like that anymore.
07:30I guess I was wrong.
07:32On the first day of the week,
07:33Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early in the morning
07:35while it was still dark
07:37and saw the stone removed from the tomb.
07:40So she ran and went to Simon Peter
07:42and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved
07:44and told them,
07:46They have taken the Lord from the tomb
07:48and we don't know where they put him.
07:50Mary stayed outside the tomb weeping.
07:52And as she wept,
07:54she bent over into the tomb
07:55and saw two angels in white sitting there,
07:59one at the head and one at the feet
08:01where the body of Jesus had been.
08:03And they said to her,
08:05Woman, why are you weeping?
08:07She said to them,
08:08They have taken my Lord
08:10and I don't know where they laid him.
08:12When she had said this,
08:13she turned around and saw Jesus there.
08:15But she did not know it was Jesus.
08:17Jesus said to her,
08:19Woman, why are you weeping?
08:21Whom are you looking for?
08:23She thought it was the gardener
08:25and said to him,
08:26Sir, if you carried him away,
08:28tell me where you laid him
08:29and I will take him.
08:30Jesus said to her,
08:32Mary.
08:34She turned and said to him in Hebrew,
08:37Rabboni, which means teacher.
08:39Jesus said to her,
08:41Stop holding on to me,
08:42for I have not yet ascended to the Father.
08:45But go to my brothers and tell him,
08:51I am going to my Father
08:53and your Father,
08:54to my God and your God.
08:58To my God and your God.
09:00Mary Magdalene went
09:01and announced to the disciples,
09:04I have seen the Lord
09:05and then reported what he told her.
09:07Yeah, it's such a beautiful story.
09:10Yeah.
09:16That's the feast of St. Mary Magdalene.
09:18Love, King of Church.
09:18Yeah, maybe I should have chosen her now.
09:21St. Benedict Joseph of Ray
09:22cursed the day I was born
09:23if I said I made a mistake.
09:47It makes me want to sing this song.
09:52It makes me think of this song.
10:00How long is it?
10:01If it's too long,
10:02I'm not going to sing it in this video.
10:05Is it really that big of a problem?
10:06Bro, it's perfect.
10:09We got time for it.
10:13If it doesn't freeze too much.
10:28The gates and doors were barred
10:31and all the windows fastened down.
10:35This song gets me every time.
10:37Rose at every sound.
10:40I've been hope, the sorrow.
10:42I've been...
10:43It's just weird timing.
10:54The gates...
10:55The gates...
11:01Yeah.
11:02The gates...
11:04The gates...
11:45The gates and doors were barred
11:48And all the windows fastened down
11:50I spent the night in sleeplessness
11:54And rose at every sound
11:56Half in hopeless sorrow
11:59And half in fear the day
12:01Find the soldiers breaking through
12:04To drag us all away
12:06Or find the soldiers breaking through
12:10To drag us all away
12:17And just before the sunrise
12:19I heard something up just before the sunrise
12:22To drag us all away
12:29And just before the sunrise
12:31I heard something up just before the sunrise
12:41And just before the sunrise
12:41I heard something at the wall
12:44The gates began to rattle
12:46And a voice began to call
12:49I hurried to the window
12:52And looked down into the street
12:55Expecting swords and torches
12:58And looked down into the street
13:00And looked down into the street
13:06Expecting swords and torches
13:10And the sound of soldiers' feet
13:17There was no one there but Mary
13:19So I went down to let her in
13:23John stood there beside me
13:25And she told us where she'd been
13:28She said they've moved him in the night
13:31And none of us knows where
13:33The stone's been rolled away
13:36And now his body isn't there
13:40We both ran toward the garden
13:42Then John ran on ahead
13:45We found the stone in the empty tomb
13:48Just the way that Mary said
13:51But the winding sheet they wrapped him in
13:54Was just an empty shell
13:57How where they'd taken him
13:59Was more than I could tell
14:06Something strange had happened there
14:09Just what I did not know
14:12John believed a miracle
14:14But I just turned to go
14:17Circumstance and speculation
14:19Couldn't lift me very high
14:22Cause I'd seen them
14:25Couldn't lift me very high
14:28Cause I'd
14:29Cause I'd seen them crucify
14:31Couldn't lift me very high
14:35Cause I'd seen them
14:36Crucify him
14:38Couldn't lift me very high
14:42Cause I'd seen them crucify him
14:45Couldn't lift me very high
14:49Cause I'd
14:51It's literally impossible for me to get this right
14:55Cause I'd seen them crucify him
15:00Then I saw him die
15:05Then I saw him die
15:13Then I saw him die
15:20Back inside the house again
15:23The guilt and anguish came
15:27Everything I'd promised him
15:30Just added to my shame
15:32When at last it came to choices
15:35I denied I knew his name
15:40Even if he was alive
15:43It wouldn't be the same
15:57It wouldn't be the same
16:05Suddenly the air was filled
16:07With strange and sweet perfume
16:09Light that came from everywhere
16:13Drove shadows from the room
16:15Jesus stood before me
16:18With his arms held open wide
16:22I fell down on my knees
16:24Just a cloud and cried
16:31He raised me to my feet
16:34As I looked into his eyes
16:38Love was shining off
16:40My computer wants to freeze on me
16:42Make sunlight from the skies
16:44Guilt and my confusion
16:47Disappeared in sweet release
16:51And every fear I'd ever had
16:53Just melted into peace
17:14The gates and doors were barred
17:16And all the windows fastened down
17:19I spent the night in sleeplessness
17:22And rose at every sound
17:25Half in hopeless sorrow
17:27And half in fear the day
17:30Would find the soldiers breaking through
17:33To drag us all away
17:37And just before the sun rise
17:51I heard something to drag us all away
17:54And just before the sun rise
18:01I heard something at the wall
18:04The gate began to rattle

21:48Life that came from everywhere
21:51Drilled shadows from the room
21:54Jesus stood before me

22:01Piled down on my knees

22:43He said if you had real fears
22:44It would take a little longer
22:46To think about
22:46Let me just go like that
22:58He's alive
23:00He's alive
23:01He's alive
23:02He's alive and I'm forgiven
23:06Heaven's gates are open wide
23:09He's alive
23:11He's alive
23:13He's alive and I'm forgiven
23:17Heaven's gates are open wide
23:20He's alive
23:21He's alive
23:24He's alive and I'm forgiven
23:28Heaven's gates are open wide
23:30He's alive
23:32He's alive
23:34He's alive
23:48He's alive
23:48Yeah, I'll work on that later
23:51Whatever that is, that song has the weirdest timing of any song I've ever sung
23:54Don't talk, okay Josh, I can't really see me
23:57Don't talk, okay Josh
24:05Don't talk, okay Josh
