we've done all we can.
Okay, listen, uh, is there any way
I can get another extension?
You're currently $40,000 in arrears,
and the bank just can't sustain debts like that,
and we definitely can't see a way into further credit.
I understand. I understand.
L... (sighs)
I mean, nobody's building new right now, okay'?
And I've already laid off over half my staff.
I'm having a hard time making payroll as it is.
I'm really sorry.
I wish there was more I could do.
(sighs)
Okay. Uh... look, I-l know it's a bit of a long shot here,
but my daughter's about to sign
her first major recording deal, okay?
So just give me a little bit more time--
maybe she can give me a loan, I can work this all out.

Can you fix it?
Yeah, I think I can do something with this.
What happened?
Don't ask.
Okay. (laughs)
Are you still gonna pick me up from school tomorrow
-and take me to my basketball game? -Of course.
Promise this time.
I promise, Eric-- I will pick you up.
-(knocking) - DAVID: Ooh.
Time for bed, buddy.
Big day tomorrow, hmm?
Let me see this.
Oh, yeah.
It goes right there.

Love you, son.
- Love you, too, Dad. - All right.

MOORE: Michelle has a congenital heart defect.
Basically, her heart is not functioning properly.
How bad is it?
Michelle's heart isn't pumping enough blood
to supply enough blood and oxygen to the rest of her body.
Wait a second. Are you saying our daughter's gonna die?
I'm sorry, sir, but...
unless we get a donor heart soon...
- No, I want to talk to another doctor. -Mr. Danielson,
I am the senior cardiologist, and I promise you...
I don't want your promises; I want a second opinion.
And that's exactly what I intend on getting.
Now, who do you work for?
I want to speak to your boss.
I'll contact our chief cardiologist
and let her know you wish to speak with her.
DMD: They're there now'?
I thought we were meeting with them this afternoon.
{groans}
ls old man Withers with them?
Of course he is.
(sighs): All right. I'm on my way.
DAVID: Mm-hmm.
Cecil?
Yeah. That was a scheduling mix-up.
The building committee's at the church waiting on me.
Yeah. Hey, hey, don't you worry, buddy.
I'll be there to pick you up.
- Okay. - All right? I promise.
I love you.
(whispers): You should.
I do.
{Theresa laughing) - Bye, guys.
CECIL: All right, I will show you guys out.
- Thank you, Cecil. - All right.
All right, thanks. We'll make it work.
(sighs)
Well, that went well.
(chuckles): That's one way to describe it.
Yeah, that was rough, but...
you know, with all the construction we got going on,
you got to expect some oversight.
A lot of it, actually.
I still don't get why they would assign
a third-party manager to oversee us.
Comes with the territory, David.
I'm reading her e-mail; she just sent us one.
Name's Lisa Pearl.
And...
- Pearl. -..-looks like you're gonna meet her today,
'cause she's coming here at 2:30 to meet you.
Today at 2:30?
- That's what it says. - Well, I can't do today.
I'm taking Eric to his basketball game.
Well, better start working on a plan B.
David, at this stage of the game,
I really don't think you can tell the new manager
you can't meet with her
'cause you got to pick your son up for basketball.
DAVID: I'm sorry,
but there's nothing I can do.
This is a big game for him, okay?
He wants you there.
You can't keep making promises and not delivering.
I know. I know.
It's out of my control.
David, you know I love you, okay?
But I've got back-to-back meetings
regarding the women's retreat today,
so I can't do it.
I can't help. I'm sorry, baby. I love you,
but you got to figure this one out by yourself.
- Okay, honey? - Yeah, right, okay.
All right, I'll figure it out.
Bye-bye.
(sighs)
CECIL: Pastor.
Oh, excuse us.
Miss Pearl is here to meet with you.
Please, just call me Lisa.
Will do.
All right, well, I know you guys got
a lot of work to get to,
and I'll leave you to it. Nice to meet you, Lisa.
I know I'm early, Pastor.
I can wait in the lobby until you're ready, if need be.
Absolutely not. I'm ready for you now.
Oh, great.
All right.
Hey, Ma.
Hi, baby.
So, um...
this is what I've been looking at.
This is a great college, Mommy.
But it's so far.
And so expensive.
And who's gonna deliver the orders if you leave?
Please?
Just think about it.
I love you.
(exhales) I love you more.
WOMAN (over P.A. system): Dr. Forrest, dial 118, please.
This is my chief cardiologist, Dr. Timmons.
Thank you for coming.
Uh, we would like a second opinion
regarding my daughter's condition.
Sir, Dr. Moore is the senior cardiologist here,
and an expert in his field.
Frankly, I don't care what he is, okay?
I already told him, now I'm telling you,
I want another doctor to look at my daughter.
- We want a second opinion. - John.
- I will handle this. - Sir, Dr. Moore is
one of the top cardiologists in the nation,
and I've reviewed your daughter's charts, her scan,
her entire file, and I absolutely agree
-with his diagnosis. - I don't think you understand.
Sir, your daughter is in the very best of care.
- John, we just need to listen to her... -No, you need
to listen to me, okay?
We want a second opinion, and we will get one
-if we have to change hospitals. -No,
- I want another doctor. -we do not need another doctor.
(sighs) I've had enough.
If this man is one of the best in our nation,
then he will do his job, and he will take care of our daughter.
You will take care of our baby, right?
If we get a donor's heart in time...
I promise that I will do everything I can
to save Michelle.
(sighs)
-(Latin pop song playing) -(phone beeps)
(horn honks in distance)
(ticking)
You see, the engineering
in this area alone took us up 20%.
MARY: Is it wrong to pray for a new heart?
JOHN: Why would that be wrong?
She's fighting for her life.
Think about what asking for a donor heart means.
It means that someone else's child has to die
just so that ours can live.
She needs a heart.
I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna worry
about where it comes from.
LISA: So, what's the overall cost
of site prep going to be?
Um, let me see. That's a great question.
Seriously, Pastor,
I know that I popped in on really short notice,
so if you have another meeting
or somewhere else you need to be,
I totally understand.
It's my son.
I promised to take him to his big basketball game today.
It's a promise I've broken way too often.
I know... to most people,
a kid's basketball game
is not as important as a huge construction project, but...
to a father, it should be.

"For this is the will Of Him
"who sent Me,

(woman speaking indistinctly over P.A.)
Good morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Newman,
my name is Dr. Burgess.
I'm chief of neurology.
I've been monitoring Eric's condition
throughout the evening.
And... what Eric has suffered
is a traumatic brain injury called cerebral edema.
Although his heart is beating very strong,
he's had a total absence of brain function
for the past 12 hours.
Now, I have studied his MRls and his CAT scans, and...
...there's no easy way to say this,
but Eric's head injury is irreversible.
What are you saying?
Ma'am, what I'm saying is...
Eric's head injury is so severe
it is very unlikely he's going to recover.
No. Don't say that.
Don't say that. That's not true.
It can't be true, Doctor.
Mr. Newman, I'm sorry.
I wish I had better news for you.
I truly do.

BURGESS: I admire your strength.
-(exhales) - I do.
If there's anything that we can do to help you
during this time, please don't hesitate.
- Anything at all, Mrs. Newman. - Thank you. Um...
What is this?
This is my husband, David.
Baby, this is Mr. Mayberry from the local organ donor center.
I'm very sorry about your son's accident, Mr. Newman.
It was no accident.
He was struck down by some careless teenager
-more concerned with her texting... -Okay, baby, okay.
So...
are you suggesting that I donate my son's organs?
Mr. Newman, I understand how hard this must be...
You can't possibly understand how hard this is, Mr. Mayberry.
Mr. Newman, please, it's been more than a week,
and there has been absolutely no change in Erids condition.
Now, I'm afraid, at this stage,
the law gives the hospital the right to declare him deceased.
- My son's not dead. He's not dead. -Just listen, okay?
We'll j... we'll just listen to what he has to say.
Is this what you want,
to rip him open, take away his organs?
Don't let them do it, Dad.
He's still alive. I know it.
Mom, please.
No one is touching him.
Thank you for your time, Mr. Newman.
Mrs. Newman.
I held off the hospital's decision as long as I could.
I'm sorry.
How could you possibly think that I was gonna allow him
to take my son's organs?
Our son-.
That's our baby in there.
I wanted him to be okay.
I wanted
to hear him say my name
and-and smile his big smile.
It's not...
it's not God's plan.
"God's plan," Mom?
(shuddering exhale)
Junior's right.
This can't be God's plan.
- He's only 12 year... - Uh, uh, uh, uh, hey.
We, of all people,
know we can't question His work.
You, of all people, know that.
Somebody somewhere needs Eric's...
help.
We have to let him go...
...so that God can do His will.
No.
No.
(shuddering breaths)
(sniffles)
(ventilator pumping steadily)
Young lady, have you any idea the pain you've caused?
I'm sorry.
Your inability to put your phone away
for a brief amount of time has caused
much pain and suffering.
And as much as I would like to sentence you right now,
this very minute, I cannot.
(shuddering breath)
The best way to end texting and driving
is to educate everyone--
especially our teenagers--
of its dangers.
I'm so sorry.
Please, I just want to go home.
There's a 12-year-old boy in the hospital
fighting for his life.
- You will not be going home today... -(sobs)
-...or anytime soon. -(¢Win9)
I'm remanding you to the custody
of the juvenile detention center.
You will await trial there.
(gasps)
(coughs) Mommy.
(sobbing): Mommy.
Mommy, I don't want to go.
- It's okay. It's okay. - No. Mom...
(crying)
- It's okay. It's okay. - No.
Please, Mother.
-(¢Win9) -(shuddering exhale)
(shuddering sigh)
Theresa told me what happened.
They're trying to take him from me, Ma.
No, son,
they want him to help save lives.
So you think it's okay, too?
Just let him die.
No, that's not what I said.
Yes, Mom.
That's exactly what you and Theresa are saying.
Theresa should've never let that organ donor coordinator
come into his room.
Theresa did the right thing, David,
and I think you know that.
The right thing for who?
Some strangers we've never met?
Someone who deserves to live more than my son?
You know, where's Dad?
He never believed in this organ donation stuff anyway.
That's not true, son.
Sure, at times, your father has discussed openly
the practice
and even challenged its principles spiritually,
but he will be the first to tell you
there are times in the Bible
where the Lord tells us the importance
of preserving life.
Why aren't we fighting to preserve Eric's life?
You know the answer to that question, David.
But, unfortunately, its the answer
none of us wants to hear.
I love you, son,
and I love Eric so much.
Please don't let his life end this way.
Let his life have a purpose...
---even---
even in death.
N'
No. (sniffles)

DAVID: Son, I remember the first time I held your hand.
And I kept asking you to squeeze my finger.
"Squeeze Daddy's finger."
And you did. You squeezed it so hard.
Out of nowhere.
Squeeze Daddy's finger, son.
Oh, God, please,
just let him squeeze my finger.
Lord,
I have thanked You every day since You gave Eric to us.

Hello?
BOYD: Mr. Newman.
This is Detective Boyd.
I'm the lead detective handling the case involving your son.
Yes?
First, let me express my deepest condolences
to you and your family for your loss.
Thank you. How can I help you, Detective?
I'm calling because we now have evidence
that we can charge a...
Maria Hernandez with vehicular manslaughter.
Maria Hernandez?
Yes, sir.
That is the name of the minor
that struck your son while texting and driving.
Where's she from?
I'm sorry, sir, but the subject is a minor,
so at this point in time all I can give you is a name.
But the D.A. should be contacting you soon.
Can you at least tell me her age?
The subject was...
17 years old at the time of the incident.
17. So young.
Okay, I'm-I'm...
I'm sorry, wha... what is she being charged with?
I thought it was a traffic accident.
The tragic death of your son was a traffic accident.
But, in this state, if we can show criminal negligence,
i.e. texting while operating a motor vehicle, well,
the charges of manslaughter can be attached.
So she could go to prison.
Well, if the D.A.
elects to charge her as an adult...
well, she'd be a very old woman
before she gets out.
Oh.
I guess I never thought it could be so severe.
Mr. Newman,
you should be getting a call from the D.A.'s office soon.
And they can better update you on your case.
I thank you for your time, sir.
And, again... my condolences.
Thank you, Detective.
FARNSWORTH: The programs for the installation service
go to the printers tomorrow. David, if you would please,
uh, make your final changes tonight
and give 'em to Brother Cecil in the morning.
David?
Yeah. Yeah, sure.
CECIL: All right, well...
that leaves on the agenda
the new construction project.
Well, the new construction'll be David's
first major project as leader of this church.
So I tell you what--
we're gonna let him make all future decisions.

What do you mean?
The new construction was your idea.
Now you're just gonna walk away and leave it to me?
Oh, son, you're taking over this church in a month,
and I have no doubt in my mind
that the new life center will grow and flourish
under your lead. Besides,
you've pretty much been the lead on it anyhow.
What... You're just leaving?
What about everything that's happened?
Proverbs 3:5 and 6--
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart
"and lean not on your own understanding.
"In all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will set your paths straight."
Proverbs.
That's it? You're not gonna answer the question?
What happened to your son, my grandson,
was a tragic and horrible thing,
but the Lord's work is still yet to be done.
And no, son, I'm not leaving you.
I'm just going home.
Lord, I know what Maria did is a sin in Your eyes.
But in her heart,
in her soul,
she is good.
Lord, I ask that You send us a blessing.
Someone, anyone...
to show the authorities
all the good that is in her.
(hammering in distance)
ED: I'm sorry, John.
I just don't have room or the work
to bring on your team right now.
I've always been there for you, Ed.
I wish there was something I could do.
My father started Danielson Construction
40 years ago.
We invested every penny he made
back into the company.
Hired quality workers.
But today all these guys have to do is rely on
some government regulation.
- That's not true, John. - No, that is true.
How many of your men
actually earned a spot on your team?
How many belong in this country?
Every last one of them!
You want to know why no one returns your calls, John?
It's you.
You're always angry about something.
And you always blame others for your problems.
You have a lot to be thankful for, son.
I've got a lot to be thankful for?
I'm filing for bankruptcy in four weeks.
Your daughter just received a new heart.
Do you not see that as nothing less than a blessing from God
and a reason for prayer?
Are you actually gonna stand there and tell me
that the reason your business is flourishing
is because you pray?
That's exactly what I'm standing here doing.
God tells us if we ask, it will be given to us.
I pray for God's blessings
and mercy every day, son.
I'm giving you the name of a very good friend.
He's adding a major addition to his church.
It's a really big project.
I'm stretched thin right now-- I'm not bidding the job.
That's all I can do for you.
Thanks.
John.
Give him a call.
And when you go interview...
leave your anger in the truck.
Children's center right there.
Yeah, that-that's a good spot for that playground wing
-you were talking about. - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- I think this is... - Oh. Okay.
CECIL: Hey, Mr. Danielson, right?
I'm Cecil King.
Wasn't really expecting a building this nice
in this area.
Well, God's been good. He's been good.
So, let me... let me introduce you to Pastor.
We're just back here going over some things.
He'll be able to make it clear to you--
you know, what his vision is and direction he's headed.
Mr. Danielson, Pastor Newman. Thanks for coming out.
Doesn't really look like you need any work done around here.
What is it you're looking to get done'?
Okay. A man who likes to dive right in.
Well, our plans are to build out
this whole staked-off area here.
And maybe add an addition right here
for our children's center.
That's a pretty big job.
- Yeah. - Gonna be expensive.
I would have to see proof of funds before we get started,
because, honestly... I can't waste my time.
We would n”: call you out here
to waste your time, Mr. Danielson.
But only if we offer you the job will we show you
any documentation or proof of funds.
CECIL: Which, at that point,
you'll be dealing with me.
And I can assure you we got everything we need.
I'm probably not the man for this.
What do you mean? Wait a minute.
- Let me... - Cecil, Cecil.
Pastor, he's the last one on the list.
- Let him go. -(truck engine starts)
DAVID: What do you mean he's not here?
He left a note saying that he was going for a bike ride.
He knows he can't just leave the house
without letting us know. And what about church?
He knew we were going to church today.
He needs time.
He needs space.
N'
FARNSWORTH: And how do I know
there's a place in heaven?
Because scripture tells us
that in our "Father's house there are many rooms.
"If it were not so, would I have told you
"that I am going to prepare a place for you?
"And if I go and prepare a place for you,
"I will come back and welcome you into My presence,
so you also may be where I am."
N'
N'
N'
Junior.
Junior, you're home?
Listen, son, we understand that you need space.
But you need to let us know before you leave this house.
Especially today-- you knew we were going to church.
THERESA: We got your note, baby,
but, I mean, come on, you still
need permission before you just leave the house.
You don't leave us a note.
Why do you care?
Whafd you say?
Do you even miss him, Dad?
Have you even visited him?
Don't you want to tell Eric you're sorry for not
being there that day to pick him up
-like you promised? - Hey, hey!
That is enough.
Get in your room.
I do miss him.
I know you do.
Hi. Uh, may I speak
with your school counselor, please?
(indistinct conversations)
N'
H 9Y-
What is this?
Juniofs school counselor has arranged for me
to speak to some students tomorrow about...
texting while driving,
and being an organ donor.
No, no, you're not doing that.
Uh, with all due respect...
what?
I mean, I'm sorry, but that's-that's not fair.
Fain'!
Is it fair a teenager texting on her phone killed Eric?
Is that fair? Is it fair
that we live our entire life the way God asks,
and somehow He still finds it fit
to take Eric from us? Is that fair?
- Is that fair, Theresa? - I don't-l don't know.
So you tell me how is running down there
and telling these kids about Eric's death
and how, somehow, it's part of God's plan-- what are they
-supposed to learn from that? - I'm not gonna tell them...
What are they supposed
-to learn from that'? - I don't know, David!
I don't know if they're gonna learn anything
from what I have to say tomorrow. I don't know.
I know this:
I'm going down there tomorrow.
And if I reach one student,
then maybe
they will reach another one.
And then, from there, another one.
I know that my son's death
has to have a purpose.
(crying)
N'
THERESA: 11 teens
die every day
as a result of texting while driving.
And 21% of teen drivers
involved in fatal accidents
were distracted by their cell phones.
Last month...
my son was killed.
He was hit by a car, and the driver...
was texting and driving. A teenager.
I need for you to promise
that you will never text and drive.
I'm asking you to wait until it's safe
to use your cell phones.
I'm pleading with you to take...
this pledge.
The "no texting while driving" pledge.
You can challenge your friends on social media
to do it.
And...
...think about this-- about
being an organ donor.
Each one of you in this very room
can save up to eight people.
So...
if you are interested
in any of that, if you are interested
in signing up.
Would you raise your hands?
Thank you.
Looks like we're off to a great start.
CECE“; David, we have
got to find a new contractor.
Man, the first interest payment on this loan is due soon
and we have not even driven the first nail yet.
I know.
I don't know what to do, Cecil.
I mean, every contractor's booked.
Well, not every one.
No. I am not
-dealing with that guy again. - Okay.
Look, I get it, all right?
The man...
obviously has some issues.
- That's a good way to put it. - Yeah.
Well, I talked to Ed Reynolds yesterday.
And he said Mr. Danielson's absolutely
the best contractor on the list.
- Cecil, so? - Wait, there-there's more.
See...
Mr. Danielson, on the surface--
and probably a little bit underneath, too--
seems like a really bad guy.
Probably is.
I don't know.
But, you know, in talking to Ed,
I find out that the guy...
his business
is struggling, for one thing, and then,
on top of that, the man is dealing with
some serious family issues.
He's got a lot going on.
I mean, shouldn't we work with a contractor
that wants to work with us?
Maybe that'd make you feel more comfortable.
But that's not who we are.
David, we're men of God.
That means we made a commitment to choose a path
He chose for us...
not the one we want to choose.
David, we go where He tells us to go.
We do what He tells us to do.
Even if it makes us uncomfortable.
You know, I'm not even worried about it.
I know you'll do the right thing.
What's this?
That would be the address to Danielson Construction.
- Cecil... - God is good, Pastor.
Get to that meeting.
(Cecil chuckles)
Hello, Mr. Danielson.
Do you have a second?
Have a seat.
Thank you.
I thought I was pretty clear
that I wasn't interested in your job the other day.
No, you said the job was probably not for you.
"Probably" still gives us a chance to work things out.
Well, I'm not sure what we have to work out.
To be honest, I'm pretty busy around here.
Really?
I spoke to Ed Reynolds on the way over here.
He had nothing but high praises for you.
In fact, he said you're the only one
that can get the job done on time and on budget.
So I'm here... hoping that
you're willing to forget about the other day,
and willing to start over.
'Cause I think there's a lot we can work out
that'd be beneficial to you and to me.
Okay.
Mr. Danielson,
lam Pastor Newman, and I need a contractor.
John Danielson. lfd be a pleasure
to speak to you about your job, sir.
Fantastic.
- She's doing the best she can. - I was just hoping
-she'd be singing by now. - But she's tired.
These things, they take time.
Listen, the doctor even says she should be further along.
- I'm not even sure she's trying. -Trying?
John, she had a heart transplant.
I mean, when are you ever gonna show compassion
and concern for anyone? Especially your daughter.
Look, I just want to hear my baby sing, okay?
Only God and Michelle
are gonna know when she can sing again,
and I don't believe that she can't...
Oh, no. Honey, I'm so sorry.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got it.
Yeah, okay.
You Okay?
Yeah. Yeah, I'll be fine.
Okay.
Um... I invited your mom and dad over
for a late dinner tonight.
Uh...
I just thought that we could all use some time together.
Of course.
Um, it's just that...
Cecil just called.
Remember that third-party manager I had talked about?
Oh, the one they dropped on you at the last minute?
Yeah.
Uh, she called and invited Cecil and I to dinner
to discuss, hopefully, the approval
of the building plans by the city.
You want to go, right?
Well... yeah, I have to.
Ever since the accident,
I've been blowing her off,
putting her on Cecil.
I will call Morn and Dad
and I'll reschedule.
No. No, no.
Um...
Yeah, you said a late dinner, right?
- Mm-hmm. -0kay, I'll just
g0 to the restaurant, have appetizers.
I'll be back in time for dinner.
Okay.
Okay? All right.
- Gonna take a shower. - Okay.
(Michelle panting)
(groans softly)
{groans}
Honey, wait, wait, wait.
Let me get that for you.
- Here you go. - Oh.
Thanks, Mom.
You know, honey, I am so sorry that you heard that discussion.
(Michelle laughs, Mary sighs)
Is that what married people call a discussion nowadays?
Your father-- he-he really does love you.
He just doesn't know how to express it sometimes, and...
I know. I just...
Mom, I just don't think I can ever sing again.
I mean, I can barely get from my bedroom to the couch
without passing out on the floor.
Honestly, I don't think I ever want to sing again.
Don't you say that.
Don't you ever say that.
God-- He gave you the most amazing gift,
and He gave you that gift for a reason.
And one day, He is going to reveal what that reason is,
and somebody is going to be so blessed by you.
I promise.
Well, maybe that blessing will be for you, Mom.
Honey...
you've been my blessing
since the very second that you arrived.
(horn honks)
CECIL: Oh, I'm glad you could make it.
LISA: Oh, and I invited you.
-(laughing): Yeah, well... -(Lisa laughs)
Well, I'm here, I'm ready.
And I'm glad you could make it.
Can I start you guys off with something to drink?
Uh, let's see.
- I'll just have an iced tea. - Uh, you know what?
That sounds good. Make that two. One that's sweet, please.
- And we're waiting on one more. - No, you're not.
Make that three iced teas, please.
- Absolutely. Coming right up. - Hello.
- Hello, Pastor. - Hello.
- Hello. - Hi. Good to see you.
Good seeing you.
I see Cecil brought his whole project file with him.
I ain't got no choice.
- I can't put the thing down. -(chuckles)
I mean, this has gotten to the point this has become
-my bedtime reading every night. -(Lisa laughs)
- No, it isn't. -I'm not playing. My Bible's jealous.
Bible like, "I mean, can you read me?
Can you pick me back up? Can I be a part of your life?"
(laughter)
- It's crazy. -Miss Pearl, I do want to apologize.
I know I've been out of the loop lately,
-but, um, I just want to say that... -Pastor,
Cecil has kept me up to speed on everything that has
gone on with you and your family these last few weeks.
I am very sorry for your loss.
You don't owe me an apology
or an explanation.
Thank you. I appreciate you saying that.
Of course.
Well, let's say we go ahead
and order the food, and while they bring it,
-we can get into this paperwork. -Sounds good.
- Really? - Oh, no, it doesn't.
I invited the two of you here tonight for dinner,
not to go over paperwork.
Relax, gentlemen.
What I'm trying to say is,
I've seen all that I need to see.
In the morning, I'll be making a full recommendation
to the committee that they approve the final plans
and move forward with the two of you at the helm.
- All right. Okay. - Thank you so much.
Thank you. That's what I thought she meant.
-(laughter) - Thanks, Lisa.
It's my pleasure, gentlemen.
I do recommend that you hire a contractor ASAP.
- Yes. - I got a plan for that.
Okay.
I can't stay in this place anymore, Mommy.
(voice breaking): This place is horrible.
Baby, I know,
but, you know, it's in God's hands now.
And He's gonna get us through this.
(Maria sniffles)
(distant, indistinct chatter)
Did you talk to the D.A.'s office?
Yes.
What did they say?
What did they say, Ma?
Is it that bad? Huh?
- What? -They said for us to get the...
-best lawyer we can. - No.
I just don't know where we're gonna find the money.
(Maria cries)
H 9Y-
(CFYWQY Mommy.
Thank you for a wonderful time, gentlemen.
No. Thank you. Um, in fact,
hey, Cecil, why don't you take Lisa to her car?
I have to hold back because of the take-out box, but...
- Oh... I don't think... - Yeah.
- No. Yeah, I don't... I don't mind. I'll do it. -Um... -Yeah.
No. I think... I think she's fine with it, too.
- Okay. -Are-are you okay? - Yeah.
- Yeah. Okay. - I got... I got it.
It's not a problem at all.
We're gentlemen at my church.
Okay. Sure. (laughs)
-(Lisa laughs) - All right.
- It was a pleasure. Thank you again. -All right.
- Oh. Take care. Good night. -(laughs) All right.
- Oh, holding hands? - LISA: Well, thanks.
Already, huh? All right.
- CECIL: More than happy to. -oh, I got you.
- So how was everything? - Fantastic.
In fact, do you deliver? 'Cause I have a group
of prayer warriors at the church who would
tear this stuff up.
I'm not sure if we still do that.
Our owner, Kate Hernandez-- she's not here right now,
and her daughter Maria did the deliveries,
but she's not here anymore, so,
- I'm not sure if we still do that. -I'm sorry. Maria?
Maria Hernandez?
Yeah. You know her?
You said she's no longer with you.
Where'd she go?
Sir, we're not really supposed
-to disclose that information. - Please.
Jail.
She's in jail.
Are you okay, sir'?
Sir?
Are you okay?
Do you know Maria?
Sir?
N'
FARNSWORTH: Lord, we thank You
for the meal we are about to receive.
In Your name we pray. Amen.
- Amen. - Amen. -Amen.
Ooh, Theresa, everything looks and smells so good.
Mm. Thanks, Mom.
Mm-hmm. I think I'm just gonna get myself two plates.
That way I don't have to worry about coming back for seconds.
(laughter)
THERESA: Hey, baby.
What's the matter?
What's wrong? Are you okay?
David, are you all right?
I just went to the restaurant
owned by the mother of the girl who killed Eric.
What?
You heard me.
Tonight I went to the restaurant
owned by Kate Hernandez,
the mother of Maria Hernandez.
The same Maria Hernandez who killed Eric.
Wa-Was the mother or daughter there?
Did you talk to them?
No. I don't know. I got this from a waitress.
PATRICIA: Look, look, look, David,
come sit down, son. Let's talk about this.
I don't know what I would have done
if either one of 'em were there.
You will do the only thing a pastor and devoted servant
of the Lord would do.
Pray with them.
Pray for them.
Pray with 'em?
Pray with the people who are
directly responsible with the death of my son?
Your grandson, by the way.
You want me to pray with...?
I'm-I'm sorry. Pray for them, Mom?
Pray for 'em?
Yes... son.
'N.-
I can't imagine what that mother and her daughter
are going through.
And compassion is...
is something...
we can't just save for our brothers and sisters.
It has to be, as the Lord has shown,
given to everyone without exception.
And that means it must be given...
to the people who took our precious Eric from us.
FARNSWORTH: David'?
David, your mother and I understand
what you and Theresa and Junior are going through.
It's never good when a parent loses a child,
or a brother loses a brother,
-but we have to trust in the Lord. -Trust in the Lord?
Trust in the Lord?
I swear, everybody needs
to stop saying "Trust in the Lord."
Only thing me and Theresa been doing is trusting in the Lord,
and look where it's gotten us.
- David, come on now... - No. Please!
You know something? You guys can sit here and pretend
nothing has happened. Don't expect me to do the same.
Enjoy your dinner.
(footsteps approaching)
(Farnsworth sighs)
Dad, I'm not in the mood for a sermon.
Well, neither am I, but you're gonna listen
to what I have to say anyhow.
David, you and your family
are going through something I've always prayed
your mother and I would never have to experience.
I can't believe this is happening.
That Eric is gone.
That every night that I walk through that door,
he won't come running in that room,
telling me all about his day
and his latest basketball moves.
I know. I know.
But no amount of anger is gonna bring him back.
David, I'm going to, uh...
I'm going to suspend the installation service.
Now? You're gonna take away the church from me now?
You're still gonna take over the church,
but right now, your anger toward God shows all over you.
In the pulpit, here at home with your family.
We're gonna be fine. I'm gonna be fine.
Yes, you will, but what happens
when a member loses someone
and they need God's word to bring them comfort?
Who's gonna give I! to 'em?
You?
What about the construction project?
You're still the lead.
I'm still counting on you to get it done.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know how to move on, I don't know if I can move.
You know exactly what to do.
Your mom and I taught you that.
David, you've got to turn back to your faith,
your trust and your belief in the Lord.
You got to accept the fact
that God has a plan forall of us.
Young, old, doesn't matter.
My faith. My faith, Dad...
ls still in there!
I believe your love for the Lord
is still right there in your heart.
I believe that, son.
The question is, do you?
Do you still believe in your Lord and Savior?
Will you stop questioning your faith
and ask Him for forgiveness?
Will you honor Eric for all the souls he saved
from his sacrifice?
He's still out there.
His body parts, his heart is beating strong in a...
Do you know how many times I've prayed
just to hear his heart beat one last time?
Go to the Lord, son.
Open up to Him.
Listen to what He has to say to you.
All of the answers to our good fortunes
and our suffering are-are in His spirit and in His power,
and can be found...
right there...
in His word.
(sniffling)
Oh, Lord, I've lost...
(sniffles)
"questioned my faith.
Oh, God...
Oh, please...
please forgive me.
(sniffles)
I've let anger and fear consume me, Lord.
But You haven't forsaken me.
You never leave me.
And You say in Your word,
if I'll just believe in You,
You will show me Your glory.
Oh, please, please show me Your glory, God.
{inhales sharply)
Oh.
(sniffles)
Forgive me, God, for not being there for Eric that day.
(David cries quietly)
(David sniffles)
God, please show me Your glory.
(David sniffles)
Oh, please show me Your glory.
(David sniffles)
Whatever You say, God, I'll do it.
(David sniffles)
If You can just tell me what You want me to do...
(sniffles) ...I'll do it.
(sighs)
(sniffles)
Sweetheart,
can we talk?
Thank you.
First, I just want to apologize for my behavior,
the way I've been acting,
the way I treated the family.
I haven't been there for you,
I haven't been there for Junior.
I haven't been there for the church.
L~\ \
I want to say I'm sorry.
Thanks.
But I know what we need to do.
God has shown me what we need to do now.
What to...
What to do about what? What do you mean?
We need to forgive Maria Hernandez.
We need to do whatever we can to help out her family.
- I know... - David?
Please. Please.
The Lord has put this on my heart,
and I know it to be true.
We need to forgive Maria.
And we also need
to find the person that Eric saved.
(Theresa sighs)
Okay.
All right.
'N.-
I-I get it.
We forgive.
And we meet the person that Eric saved.
DAVID: So,
what do you think?
Weather permitting,
and if we don't have any major, unforeseen issues,
ten months, nine if we're lucky.
Great. When can you start?
You're just giving me the job?
You earned the job, John.
I mean, I can give you some... some references.
-(Cecil laughs) - That's not necessary.
CECIL: Oh, Mr. Danielson, you got it.
- Brother, congratulations. -(David chuckles)
- Thank you. -(throat clearing)
All right, we'll finalize all the details
and deposit the funds into your account immediately.
- Thank you, sir. - DAVID: Thank you.
Whew! Wow. Okay.
(birds singing)
I offered him my references, but he said he didn't need 'em.
He didn't want 'em. He just...
really didn't say anything at all.
Just gave me the job.
I mean, who does that?
Who gives you a half-a-million-dollar contract
like that?
God does.
Pray with me, John.
We need to thank Him for all that He's done for us.
Lord, You are the most merciful,
and we know that You hear our prayers,
and You answer them when we need You the most.
And You are the only authority over time,
and Your timing has never been more perfect and more...
merciful. (laughs)
And Lord,
we know You're good to those whose hope is in You.
And if we seek You with a quieted soul,
we'll be able to hear Your whispers of goodness
all around us.
But if we're loud...
...and our hearts are filled with hate...
(John cries)
...when You're speaking and assuring us of goodness...
N'
...we will miss it.
I... I missed Your goodness, Lord.
Thank You...
for giving us our daughter's life back.
Thank You for putting this good man in our path.
Thank You...
for allowing me to no longer see the world
through a prism of color.

Collectibles.
Right.
Collectibles.
(sighs) Listen, son...
I'm sorry about not being there
for him that day.
I allowed my job to get in the way,
cause me to forget what's really important.
That's you, your mother, Eric.
Eric needed me that day, and...
and I failed him.
I'm gonna have to deal with that.
But I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
I miss him so much, Dad.
Yeah.
And I miss you, too.
I am here, son,
and I will always be here, I promise.
I love you, Dad, and...

My brothers and my sisters,
why don't you give God some praise
for the new senior pastor,
Pastor David Newman!
(organ music playing)
(cheering)
(applause continues)
Please, be seated. Please.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Sometimes tragedy...
strikes and happens.
And instead of running toward God,
we get so angry"-
that we can't run away from Him fast enough.
You see, I know that to be true,
because it happened to me.
That's why I'm here,
ready and prepared to humble myself
before the Lord.
As you all know,
our son Eric's life
was cut short by a terrible accident.
We made a decision to donate his organs.
I confess, I couldn't see
how I would ever forgive God
for taking him away from us at such a early age.
I was so angry with God...
...I ran away from Him.
But not today.
Today I'm going to run toward Him.
'N.-
am gonna run toward God,
and I'm gonna run toward God as fast as I can.
And I ask all in this house
to run with me.
Today I'm gonna do a little something different,
something I normally don't do.
But I'm gonna tell you why.
Because...
I think it's a privilege to testify
on the power of God.
I want to testify to the fact that God transformed a heart,
and out of that transformation, he birthed something amazing.
Men'?
This is Kate Hernandez.
This beautiful young lady next to her is her daughter Maria.
Maria, here...
is a honor roll student.
She has dreams and aspirations to be the first in her family
to go and to graduate from college.
Unfortunately, those dreams and aspirations
have to be put aside for a little while.
Maria, please.
You see, Maria here...
accidentally, while driving,
struck and killed our son Eric.
(Sniffs)
Mark 11 :25 tells us
that if you hold anything against anyone,
forgive them,
so that your Father in heaven will forgive you your sins.
- Amen? - Amen.
Yep.
So I am here today as a representative of my family.
My family. Please stand.
I want you to know...
that we forgive you.
We forgive you.
And my prayer...
is that...
your heart is no longer burdened
by the tragedy of that day.
You see, the forgiveness of God
is granted to us all
-by the blood of Jesus Christ. - Yes.
Now, if you're willing this day, Maria,
Jesus is willing to receive you as a daughter.
FARNSWORTH: Yes, he is!
And I would be honored and privileged
to pray with you.
Will that be okay?
- Yes. - Amen. Everyone,
please stretch your hand forward.
- Let us pray. -(organ music plays)
- Father... - Father.
...please forgive me for my sins.
(crying): Please forgive me for my sins.
♪ I'm gonna make it ♪
And I thank You, Lord,
for opening Your arms to me this day.
And I thank You, Lord,
for opening Your arms in this day to me.
Please, Lord, send me Your Holy Spirit.
MARIA: Please, Lord, send me Your Holy Spirit.
DAVID: And I thank You that You sent Jesus.
And I thank You that You sent Jesus.
DAVID: And in Jesus' name I pray.
MARIA: And in Jesus' name I pray.
And the family of God says...
Amen!
Hallelujah. Thank you.
Oh, oh, all right, bless you, bless you.

- All right. - I I'm gonna make it ♪
Thank you.
DAVID: Hallelujah. Everybody, come on, now.
Give God some praise.
You all right, Mama?
(applause)
DAVID: If in death,
Eric can still do God's work,
So can we.
That's why I am proud to announce today
our newest ministry,
SAVE1000.
(applause)
N'
Born from tragedy,
and championed by our very own First Lady...
...SAVE1000
will focus on promoting the need
for increased organ and tissue donation,
and bringing an end to texting while driving.
We will take this message
to our communities".
and we will take it out into the city...
to the state,
and ultimately,
we will take this message to the world.
- Here you go, boy. - Thank you. Appreciate it.

DAVID: God put a beautiful song in my heart this morning,
and I asked...
my beautiful wife, your First Lady,
to sing it for us,
to bless us before we leave. Amen?
(whooping)
You got this, right?
Just look at you.
But before we get started...
I just want to say,
I am so honored to be your husband.
I... I couldn't have made it
these past few weeks without you.
Without your strength,
your encouragement, your understanding and your love...
I don't know where I would be.
God says He will never leave us or forsake us.
He said, fear not.
That He will uphold us
by the right hand of His righteousness.
Theresa...
God used you as a vessel.
He used you as the right hand of His righteousness for me.
And... I thank you so much.
And I love you.
-(Theresa chuckles) -(David sighs)
(laughing): You ready to be another blessing?
Your First Lady, y'all.
