congressman goodnight and don't worry about it miss maury yes sir would you see the congressman out please you are an embarrassment a good for nothing drunk how dare you how dare you i only do this

thousand times marcy you knew we'd always moved to dc once i made partner it's a job on the hill there's nothing pathetic about that stop it not tonight so you think you're so far above us all do you kurt well you're no better than your father in fact you're around even less than he is at least he's finally making money all you do is play a stupid game all day i don't have to take this crap are you just gonna let him walk out like that some kind of man you are is [Music] [Music] she's getting worse you know would it kill you to be around a little more look who's talking you're the only son

season boys we had this game right in our hands but you lost concentration for one split second and it cost us the playoffs hit the showers i'll see in a few minutes oh my god hey cochindoll son i want to see you tomorrow morning in my office dad you're still here glad you can make it i know i have been working a lot son and i'm sorry for that i just didn't want to miss your last game i just i can't believe we lost that game i mean we were so close the whole time if jerry had made that shot i don't want to think about it now you know i don't know much about sports and i'm not one to give advice when it's not asked for but uh well it seemed to me that jerry wasn't to blame for missing that shot you were you can't be serious he totally had that shot i couldn't have set him up better if i wanted to again i know i don't know much about sports but i do know a little bit about success i don't think you should have passed that ball off the shot was yours to take but jerry is a much better shot than i am he's a starter there is one big difference between the two of you jerry takes risks he fails sometimes but a lot of times he succeeds kurt if you always pass the ball off to someone else and what i mean to say is that if you don't shoot you won't ever score i gotta go back that where to the gym what for i got to start shooting now for next season kurt what's up what's up man how's it going seriously where are you i stayed after the game to train you know you really haven't changed a bit since california what are you talking about i grew at least an entire foot since then and i don't know if you guys noticed but i've been working out i noticed you were looking good you know what i mean he's still as obsessed as ever man hey guys hey i went ahead and ordered you one the brothers are taking care of everything um no thanks man i don't drink wait then why are you gonna rush a fraternity what can i get for you uh i'll just have a water please you know what the sad thing is some of these guys show up to practice completely hung over and they still beat me i don't get it if you can't beat them join them right hmm here is your water that'll put hair on the chest seriously i can't believe you're actually drinking water do you do you want me to get you a little sippy cup shut up seriously i don't get it i mean i'm working just as hard as ever but no matter what i do these guys still take it to me beginning to think the man upstairs has it out for me you know maybe he has something better for you than basketball yes like soccer it is about time you learn to play a real man's game a real man's game look soccer is a hobby okay it's not a sport i'm just gonna outwork all those guys come on in son have a seat kurt now that the season's over i wanted to talk to you about our plans for next year now know that you're a hard worker in fact you're the hardest worker i've ever seen and i know how much you love this game that's why we gave you a shot in the first place but sometimes that's not enough i really don't think you have the ability to play at this level what coaches this is about last night it's not about last night this was a bigger decision i thought about this for a long time and i don't want to make it but i have to do what's best for this program whatever it takes for me to improve in the offseason i'm gonna do it

nice head ben now what's he doing here and what is he wearing you said we needed a goalkeeper not a fashion model besides you're the one who wanted to play on the field instead of in goal [Music] do [Music] so [Music] dude bruce it's a fraternity game dad what are you doing here i wanted to put my new camera to work besides it's a nice day the footage i've caught so far is pretty conclusive soccer just isn't your game but at least you're having fun and getting some exercise right actually dad i feel like i'm getting a hang of this look you stay for the second half unfortunately my lunch break is over but i enjoyed watching you get scored on six times it was uh cute thanks again for coming just let me know when your next pickup basketball game is and we'll see what this baby can do who knows maybe we can even send it to some college coaches it's ridiculous he doesn't know the first thing about goalkeeping and now he's starting to embarrass the entire team i'm just going to get my stuff bruce relax why don't you step up and score some goals i'll mark flip who's flip he's the guy who keeps scoring on you he's the captain of the eagles soccer team so don't take it too hard last time we played the deltas they beat us 12-0 they're the league champs but come on man if i can play out there you can yeah you said i couldn't play that was warm up all right you just wait just keep your eye on the ball come out and challenge me be aggressive and let them make the mistakes you all right yeah yeah okay enough fooling around it's time to show them the old kaiken doll magic whatever you say [Music] [Music] we're down six to one boys you're [Music] ridiculous [Music] [Applause] [Music] all right i know you feel like you got shelled that first half but a second half shown out your first time a goal against this team dude that's unbelievable thanks man you aren't too shabby yourself [Music] hey baby thanks for coming to see me play hey kurt you did pretty well out there i was impressed thanks do you come to games often yeah sure would uh never miss a chance to see her man score come on bruce you know i don't like when you joke about that kind of stuff you know she's the virgin sherry hey robbie am i gonna see you at church tomorrow yeah yeah of course yeah i wouldn't miss it in fact uh kurt here uh might be coming along too with me uh to church right kurt um you are well that would be so great bruce won't ever come well yeah i i go to my own church all the time but yours sounded pretty cool so i figured i would check it out well i can't wait i will see you tomorrow jerry has a date with the sexiest man on campus come on baby what was that man i just thought you could use a little help yeah well it better be worth it dude come on you thought soccer was boring remember and now you're hooked come on just give it a shot i'll pick you up at 8 30. in the morning i'm sure he does go to the early service so uh fine if i go i'll drive myself okay whatever thanks man see you tomorrow curt hey car you got a minute yeah all right i know you're gonna think this sounds crazy but i'm just gonna say it what do you think about maybe trying out for the school soccer team this fall play for the eagles division one college soccer are you insane i just got rocked this morning okay the first half does not count honestly i've never seen royal talent like that flip was pretty impressed too when's the season start three months seriously just think how cool it could be i mean bruce is lazy slow and he thinks he owns this place i would love to see you take him down a notch wait bruce is the starting goalkeeper i thought he played striker nah he just does that for the frat games to get a break from the goal he was all south last year okay all right hold on i can't beat that i look like an idiot with your experience in college basketball and with your crazy work ethic and natural ability i really think you could beat them out we can even start training next week if you want you know i was 8th in state in gymnastics for my high school too would that help or that's one of those things that you should probably just keep to yourself just think about it okay i'm serious and you know i'm never serious about anything i don't know i might be transferring next year to play ball somewhere else hey thanks for bringing me out here had a good time just think about it just think about it good morning miss williams lovely sermon today wasn't it yeah it was so insightful i just love me some jesus don't you now i know i'm in church cause honey you look like an angel i'm so screwed [Music] you may be seated no armor checking things out today's teaching is taken from proverbs 16 9. the mind of the man plans his way but the lord directs his steps well i almost forgot children sunday school teachers you're dismissed so glad you could make it i know i told you before but you're pretty amazing and gold yesterday um i'm gonna get something to drink good morning everybody i'm so glad to see you all here today does anyone know what this is right well what can i use a glove for oh i want to keep your hands warm here in the snow and you keep your hands not dirty when you're gardening right can i use this glove right now to dig in the garden no then what can i use it for now a glove can be used for many things but it was created to do one thing right now this glove is empty but now the glove is full and can do what it was created to do [Music] our lives are like this glove when we try and do things on our own we're empty inside but we let god fill us our lives can be used for the lord and we can do anything for his glory oh hey kurt did you need something uh i was looking for the bathroom it's right down the hall on the left okay thanks i really had to go [Music] can you hear me they say at that church that if i give you my life you'll fix it i don't have much to give but i do have this this is all i've got [Music] you can have it this is my life take it but please just give me a sign that i'm on the right path [Music] mmm [Music] hey dad ah glad you could make it son we only have a few minutes to go over these transfer applications before that shipping bill comes to a vote let's talk about where you want to transfer i think i found a few schools close by that would be just perfect dad you're gonna think this is nuts but i'm gonna stay at least for one more semester but what about your athletics well that's just it i'm thinking about trying out for the school soccer team this summer what that's the most outrageous idea i have ever heard i knew you'd think it was crazy get your head out of the clouds kurt this is reality not some half-cocked irresponsible foolish idea about trying to make it in a sport you've never even played before dad i'm serious and i have played before you remember that game with the frat team some of those guys thought i was pretty good i saw you in that frat game quite frankly if i had known you were actually taking it seriously out there i would have been a bit embarrassed come on that was just the first half once i caught on i really started to do well i really think i have a shot at this come on kurt no one just walks onto a college team after only a few months of playing a sport that's stupid just one more semester i'll even help out with mom a little more fine it's your life you want to ruin it go ahead i don't have time for any more of this nonsense i've got to go take care of my real job in the real world maybe i can get you an internship on the hill or something i'll open up it's kurt open up man gotta get going wake up sunshine let's go there he is let's go if i'm going to have a shot at this we got to start now shut dude i'm a little early for that what are you talking about my shots are shot as in a chance at making the team you said you thought i could do it right yeah i did i mean what i meant to say and you said we start training this week remember did i yeah well if i did i not mean at six in the morning come on man where's your dedication seriously let's go all right all right just give me a minute all right hurry up [Music] [Music] this is hey excuse me you guys need a goalkeeper nah man we're [Music] good man you guys need a goalkeeper nah man we're in the middle of a game hey you need a goalkeeper yeah man take [Music] over this is is [Music] if we really believe that there is a god if we really believe that there is a heaven and a hell then we'll stop living our lives for our own glory and live for the glory of the lord it is only then that we will be able to push through our trials push through our pain and realize that just as jesus laid down his life for us in the end none of our suffering will be worthy to be compared to the magnificent glory that is to be revealed to us are you ready for the big day yeah okay let's go [Music] kurt i don't think you're ready yet what are you talking about you need a pair of these thanks man this means more to me than you'll ever know they're just gloves [Music] looks like he gained some weight yeah i heard he was boozing up all summer long he's hardly done any training he thinks just because he made all south last season he can do whatever he wants looks like you actually have a shot at this thing who are you uh kurt kaikundal i'd like to try out sir if that's all right with you oh we have all the players we need right now we're not accepting any walk-ons look just give me a chance all right you won't be sorry how long have you been playing soccer well for about three months but i've been training hard every day with all due respect lad this is ridiculous if you want to get into soccer there are plenty of good rec teams in the area now i have a practice to run coach wait this is the goalkeeper flip and i were talking to you about this is my friend kurt kuykendall just give him a chance you won't regret it besides it won't hurt to give bruce a little healthy competition fine i'll see what you can do if you stink you're gone understand yes sir thank you all right [Music] [Music] well done most of you worked hard all week i'll be posting the final squad outside my door tomorrow morning starters for this weekend's game against the cavaliers will be clearly marked if your name's not on the list or if you're not starting i'll be happy to talk it over with you but our decisions about this team are final that's all [Music] yes unless it's a dude god move guys let's see i don't know how that guy made the team coach we need to talk yeah baby i

kaikan dollar i quit there's the door you can't be serious i said there's the door i don't play those kinds of games fine but don't come crying to me when you guys lose this weekend and lose bad guy

[Applause] [Music] uh [Music] as it all might seem [Music] is [Music] i grew up in a christian home and i always thought that i was a christian i did um in eighth grade go through my catechism class and publicly confess jesus as my lord and savior in front of the congregation and i truly believed it with all my heart when i went through high school i'd say i became a bit more worldly and wanted to fit in with the rest of the students and when i went off to college though that was the chance to really see that my life wasn't quite centered on god it was centered on myself and that i was on the throne not jesus christ and that is when i realized that i was missing a personal relationship with jesus i grew up as a little boy in and out of church you know we went to different denominations i actually went through the catechism of the anglican church and became an acolyte but i never met jesus through the process my idol which was sports god allowed that to crash when i was cut off the high school basketball team and and then cut again off my uh my college team to redirect my life and it was it was because of that that in october of 1969 that before going to bed i got down on my knees and i said jesus if you're real come into my life forgive me and see if you can do something with me and you know my life changed for that at that point and it's never been the same he has been there you know all along [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] you
