give me a grant you earned it i'm chris keavey pastor eric boykin pastor for all of five weeks rush out of seminary my church is just a couple blocks away you wouldn't happen to have a little boy named micah your congregation about nine years old micah miller i met him yesterday he said you were the greatest so i figured i'd come see for myself and what do you think well i coughed up a 50 didn't i yeah was that out of your own pocket or out of the church's mission budget petty cash but don't say anything listen i didn't mean to take you from your music i had no problem just getting ready to change my pitch anyway your pitch location got to find a hot spot i have a spot for you why don't you visit my church this sunday and sing a song you mean during the service yeah we'll have you do special music during the worship service just like that he just met me i heard you singing about jesus christ right yeah so what's the problem i can tell you're new really no pastor with experience would work things out quite like this well the elders want me to grow the church i'm just trying to recruit a new member what do you say i only sing my own songs that's fine just give me one solo on sunday at 10 30. i'll give you my best don't worry about me just give jesus your best listen there's a little restaurant right near the church we got time for a quick bite it's on me more petty cash pastors discretionary fund here let me help you carry something let's help you get more money i guess so i just started using it today and i got you so tell me chris have you been a street singer long i used to be a college soccer coach were you successful not bad what happened recession happened i was let go nobody wants to hire a 59 year old you have a family i man them all [Music] what do you mean i hit a truck killing my wife and two kids sorry the truck was going the wrong way [Music] i froze and they died the people in the truck it's just the driver he broke his ankle was he drunk she's tired no record so he only got a year in prison he's out now he's out and i'm still in so you blame yourself that's a mistake how many people have you counseled pastor you're the first one you've got a lot to learn so do you if you're still blaming yourself i'd rather blame myself in god what did god do nothing that's the part that confuses me he could have done a miracle is that what you're thinking maybe your family members christians so they're in heaven that's a miracle in itself that there's a heaven and god takes believers there for god so loved the world that he gave his one and only son and whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life i know the verse but i felt like god let me down but and now you're singing about him yeah because i realize he's my only hope for coming back up you see i tried it for a while without god then i realized i was turning my back on my best friend and i needed my best friend so when i couldn't find a job i hit the streets with my guitar and my best friend that's quite a testimony you married engaged her name's jessica she lives in indiana when's the wedding we haven't set a date yet wait to see how this job turns out well after what i've seen i'd wait too you just spent too much time and money on a busker a busker yeah a street performer a sidewalk singer a busker doesn't roll off the tongue quite as nicely as troubadour yeah well uh we'll see what rolls off here that sunday in church i gotta run i uh got an appointment two minutes counseling someone actually my first counseling session with the church i hope you learned something practicing on me very funny see you sunday at 10 30. where's the church 211 west chicago boulevard i'm going to put your name in the mall 10 so don't forget to show off okay look your best this is my best for a long time chris yes mr johnson it's me tell me did sign help definitely please tell your husband i'll have his rent money tomorrow i'm sure he'll be celebrating tonight with an extra cup of coffee that'll wire him up nah he's wire proof the only thing up all night is gonna be me he snores like a wounded buffalo well thanks again for the sign by the way if you're free sunday morning i'll be singing at new life church at 10 30. elmer you want to go hear chris sing sunday at church i heard him sing on the streets he ain't no top liner he's standing right here i'm still waiting for my money i pay no attention to him he's living between a rock and a hard place that's all right that's pretty much where i live too i'm waiting hush elmer he'll have it for you tomorrow okay guard my stash let's see 315 right here 330 dollars me you and jesus she's not here for some reason some people don't seem to like jesus anymore i hate to be the

rainmaster oh what a smile nice gums what kind of food are you giving him he's a cat so i feed him cat food are you always such a smart aleck only when i'm around nice people that's supposed to be a compliment pretty much you're one of the few people who somehow seems to bring out the best in me this is your best my new pastor seems to think so i see oh such pretty eyes let me get nosy all right

the last thing we want to do is turn people away from the lord hello chris yeah come in certainly this is a closed meeting i won't stay i just want to say something did the pastor tell you about this no suffice to say a little angel told me you might be discussing me well um that's right we are shh mildred i'm a street musician i sing songs on the street and people give donations if and when they want there's a bit of danger doing what i do sometimes people pretend they're placing money in my guitar case they actually steal from me other people have called me names and threatened me and as you know i was beaten and robbed on saturday night that's the rough side of one world i live in the other world i live in is a lonely one my wife son and daughter were all killed now i live in a tiny apartment alone with my cat it's hard the only other world i've discovered actually rediscovered is this world right here the church the christian world pastor eric brought hope from this world into my other worlds he brought encouragement friendship he brought jesus he gave me a chance believing that the people he represents you would give me a chance too the other night i confronted people who don't want to see me singing on the streets they were evil people now i confront people who don't want to see me singing in the church supposedly the good people i'm confused in the end i don't think this is really about who i am it's about who you are thanks for your time chris i value our friendship [Music] [Music] hey brother you got to let me cheer you up chris yeah how do you plan to do that i'm gonna cover my rent yeah you wish i did get some breakfast buyers from the pastor the other day i call it mana from the mans you better keep it for yourself oh don't worry about that there's
