:17:02
And Mr Franklin said that...
:17:04
he wouldn't permanently replace you
until we came back.
:17:08
- And he said that--
- That's very nice of Ted.
:17:11
But I'll call him tomorrow
and tell him not to bother waiting.
:17:20
Daddy, I didn't wanna talk
about this in front of Scott...
:17:24
because he gets upset,
but I just wanna know.
:17:29
Don't you believe in God any more?
:17:33
Not enough to be a pastor.
:17:36
Look, I know this is hard on you kids.
:17:40
After Jenny's death, this is probably
the last thing you need, but...
:17:44
my congregation needs
spiritual leadership.
:17:48
Well, my faith is gone.
:17:51
To answer your question, yes,
I do believe in Jesus.
:17:56
Yes, I do believe in God.
:18:00
But do I love Them? No.
:18:05
Well, it's just that all our lives
you've been a pastor.
:18:09
And then one day, you're just gonna
wake up and say, "Fuck Him"?
:18:15
I didn't say, "Fuck Him."
:18:19
Every person who chooses...
:18:23
the service of God
as his life's work...
:18:25
has something in common.
:18:27
I don't care if you're
a preacher, a priest...
:18:30
a nun, a rabbi or a Buddhist monk.
:18:32
Many, many times during your life,
you'll look at your reflection...
:18:36
in the mirror and ask yourself...
:18:40
"Am I a fool?"
:18:42
I'm not going through a lapse.
:18:45
What I've experienced is closer
to awakening.
:18:50
Daddy?
:18:52
What do you think Mom would say?
:18:55
Mama's got nothing to say.
She's dead.
