Oh, Sister Patterson.

[ Young Woman ] Hi, Sister Patterson.

Hi there. Um, Arthur, isn't it? Yes.

Oh, so I'm glad you made it back.

I didn't think you were coming for a minute there.

I really could use the money, ma'am.

Oh, well, great. Great.

Listen, you see that young man over there?

He's been coming here for about a week now.

Got a crush on one of the girls in our choir.

He thinks he's coming just because of her,

but I know better.

Well, what is he doing here?

Same reason why you're here, Arthur.

[ Both Chuckling ]

God brought him here. Mm-hmm.

Hey, young man, come here.

Oh, nah. I was just leaving.

Are you sure you want to do that?

He's only here for the girl.

Arthur, don't you know that everything...

works out for the good to them that loves the Lord?

Sister Patterson, those kids are nothing but trouble.

They're street thugs,

and you don't want them hanging around here.

Arthur, don't let this world harden your heart like that.

How in the world are these kids going to even know the love of God...

if we can't show them the love of God ourselves?

You're right.

And it's not always, Arthur, what it appears to be.

You're right. God's word says...

how man looketh on the outward appearance,

but God, he looketh on the heart.

God is looking for the soul of men.

God's interest is in souls, Arthur. Souls.

And this is what our interests should be in, Arthur.

Yes, you're right. And it's the same thing for you.

But your friend, now he's somewhat of a mystery to me.

My friend? The one that brought you here.

Ah, no, that's not my friend.

Well, he brought you here, didn't he?

- Mmm. - Sounds like a friend to me.

I guess you're right.

Hey, come on over here.

I ain't gonna bite you. Come here.

Quintin, isn't it?

How did you know my name?

I knew your mother, son.

She used to bring you here when you was just a little baby.

She was trying to get her life back together, you know.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

She was trying to get her life back together...

for you, young man, for you.

- I gotta go. - No, no. Hold it.

Wait a minute. Just one second.

I want you to take this, okay?

Put it right here. Hold on to it.

And let it bless you.

I knew his mother.

She died of a drug overdose.

A pretty rough life, that kid.

You know, the devil's trying to just kill our kids.

But anyway, um, you. Mm-hmm.

If you can just keep this place clean around here for me,

uh, that'll be great.

And I could pay you-- [ Clicks Tongue ]

about a hundred bucks a week.

Mmm, yeah, I can do that. Okay.

But I have to tell you, I don't know how long...

I'm gonna be staying-- staying here.

You know, Arthur, where you from?

Oh, here and there.

What you running from, Arthur?

[ Chuckling ] I'm not running, Sister Patterson.

Just doing a little walking. [ Laughs ]

You're doing an awful lot of walking, sir.

[ Laughing ]

You're doing an awful lot of walking.

Anyway, I just believe the Lord is gonna make things better.

I really do.

I think I should tell you-- Mm-hmm?

I'm not that religious. Hmm.

Mmm.

Uh, let's see here.

Here you go, Brother Arthur.

I got some things I put together for you.

These were my husband's old clothing. Seriously? Wow.

And I'm pretty sure they're gonna fit you perfectly.

Wow. Thank you. You're so welcome.

We have a washroom there in the back. Mm-hmm.

You can just take a shower, get yourself cleaned up.

And we'll go from there.

Thank you, ma'am. Got good taste.

[ Sister Patterson ] Oh, Vanessa, come here for a second.

I got somebody I want you to meet.

Uh, Vanessa, this is Arthur.

Arthur will be here to do a little cleaning up for us around here.

Nice meeting you, Vanessa. Nice to meet you, Arthur.

And, Arthur, this is my beautiful grandbaby, my granddaughter.

This is Yonni. Hey, Yonni. How you doing?

And this is Deacon Terry.

How you doing, Deacon? Brother Arthur, all is well.

How are you? Fine, sir.

Nice to meet you. Yes, sir.

Hooh! What is that smell?

Come on, I'll just take her. Come on now.

Sister Patterson, I think I need to go freshen up.

Okay. Nice meeting you.

You too. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.

[ Sighs ] Oh, God.

Mom, what are you thinking about?

Do you even know this man?

Listen, never mind that. Did you do what I told you to do?

[ Sighs ] Yes, Mom, I went all over.

And everyone knows we need a pastor.

Well, then, so we wait. We wait. Oh, my God.

Mama, I don't know how long we're gonna be able to wait.

I know we need to have faith, but Daddy is gone, Mama.

I work a full-time job just trying to pay these bills.

I can't run no church.

Mama, we got a small congregation,

and these pastors, they don't want the small congregation.

And you don't want to pick anybody.

The Holy Spirit, Vanessa. The Holy Spirit.

Mama, why don't you pastor the church?

What? Are you kidding me? Me pastor the church?

Your daddy would turn over in his grave...

if he just thought I was pastoring the church.

- Are you kidding me? - Well, Mama, why don't we just sell the place?

Sell the place?

Oh! You got to be out of your mind!

You know what? Forget it. I don't even want to talk about it anymore, Vanessa.

I don't even want to talk about it anymore.

All right, Mama, we won't.

I just hope a pastor comes soon.

How you doing, Dr. Williams?

I'm doing fine, Vanessa. How are you?

I'm blessed.

What brings you back here on a Sunday afternoon?

Oh, well, actually, Vanessa,

the doctor has something to discuss with me today.

Oh, okay. You all go ahead. I'll--

- Doctor, I'll see you later. - See you later.

[ Sister Patterson ] All right, bye. Bye-bye.

You haven't told her yet, have you?

[ Exhales ]

Dr. Williams, there's nothing to tell.

As you know, I've been in this church all my life.

And I know it's a long, uphill journey.

I've been-- Good times, the bad times.

But one thing I do know--

that he will never leave me, nor will he forsake me.

So I'm trusting in him to the bitter end.

God is going to make everything all right.

He's going to do it. He's going to make everything all right.

Sister Patterson, I need you to get to the hospital today.

I remember when you was a little girl and your mother used to bring you.

You remember those times?

You guys used to run around the church, you and Vanessa and--

And all-all-- all of them.

We just had such a great time.

And you remember when you used to just--

Oh, you could sing too. Remember. You was singing.

And you just did some great things.

Sister Patterson.

Sister Patterson, out of my love for you and respect,

I'm gonna have to tell your daughter.

I can't go to the hospital right now.

I can't. I can't. I can't go to the hospital right now.

Well, when then? When can you go?

Just let me work out something.

Just let me take care of something.

And then I'll come. How long? Tell me.

I'll let you know. I promise. I'll let you know.

Sister Patterson-- I promise.

I'll let you know. Okay, Sister Patterson.

What you sittin' there for? You gonna go talk to her?

[ Sighs ]

How you doin'? Hi.

My name is Quintin. And you?

I've seen you around.

You're normally on Eighth and Peckum.

What brings you to church today?

Well, I was wondering--

That's not gonna happen. Sorry. Wait a minute.

You don't even know what I was about to ask you.

What were you gonna ask?

Well, I was gonna ask-- Mm-hmm?

if you want to see a movie later tonight.

Tonight? No.

I'll be in church. We have Bible study.

Oh. Um, what about tomorrow?

Tomorrow night, I'll be in church again.

Choir rehearsal. Mmm.

Okay. Um, Friday night.

Oh. No, Friday, we'll be in revival.

So I'll be in church again. Sorry.

Bye-bye.

So's you got it? [ Chuckles ]

So, what happened?

She-- She cool. She told me to pick her up at 8:00, walk her home.

Word? She got a friend for me?

Wait, wait, wait. We got that thing to do at 9:30, Q.

Don't even worry about that. She lives right up the street.

You know how long I've been trying to get with her.

For real, man. Don't try to duck me on this one, Q.

For real, I need you. I'm about serious as cancer on this one.

[ Exhales ] For real, bro.

All right.

Yonni. Yonni, come here.

Hi there.

And what's your name?

Wait. Let me guess. Yonni.

She doesn't talk.

Not yet. Right, baby?

Anyways, if you need Arthur, I can go get him.

I think he's downstairs.

I was just admiring the place.

You know, tell us something about yourself.

You seem so mysterious.

Why don't you tell me about yourself?

Well, my dad founded this church when I was two years old,

so I grew up right here at this church.

You know, I was always so proud of him.

He worked so hard to keep this church.

Anyways, he passed recently.

I think I heard something about that.

My father was a great man.

And, you know, he never showed it,

but I think he always wanted a son--

someone who could follow in his footsteps.

When he died, he told Mama and me...

that the Holy Spirit was gonna send us a pastor.

He also said that that man would be--

What?

Never mind.

Anyways, we're no closer to finding a pastor,

and these bills aren't being paid.

I don't know how much longer we're gonna be able to hold on.

What?

Will you pray with me?

Yes.

Father, help them to see that every knee shall bow...

and every tongue confess...

that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Vanessa. Oh.

Vanessa, we need your help in the kitchen, dear.

- Q. - What's up, Jazz?

Dee looking for you. What is you doing messing with that fool, man?

You know he crazy. He crazy.

You know he crazy.

[ Sighs ]

You been floating around here...

all day...

with these dreamy-lookin' expressions on your face,

and I know that look from anywhere.

Who is it? Who is what?

Who is he, Vanessa? Who is he?

I'm your mama.

I birthed you. I ain't no fool.

Who is the man, Vanessa?

Okay, Mama. It's Aarom.

I don't know, Mama. I mean--

I just can't get him off my mind, Mama.

And he's a man of God. Do you think--

No. No, baby.

Just let me share something with you.

You see-- [ Sniffles ]

when I first met your daddy,

I didn't--

I didn't notice him. I didn't notice your daddy.

It was this other man.

Another man? Wait, no. I mean--

I didn't-- I didn't want this man,

but there was just something special...

about this man.

It sure sounds like you had something for this man.

That's just it, baby. He wasn't the one.

I was just extremely infatuated with this man.

But, actually, he was just here for another purpose.

You know, you see,

some people come in your life for a reason.

But others come in your life...

for a season.

And that's what I-- This is what I get from Aarom.

He reminds me a lot of that man,

and I don't want you to get hurt like I was.

Mama, you're not making any sense.

It will make sense to you, baby, one day.

Trust Mommy.

It'll make sense to you one day.

Yo, what up, Q?

We got that thing to do tonight, man.

Yeah, there he go right there.

Yeah, that's him.

Man, I'm tired of this.

I ain't never tired of counting money, man.

Dee, who do we know that actually made it this way?

That's easy. John Gotti, man.

John Gotti died in prison.

Noriega.

Noriega gonna die in prison.

Scarface, man. Damn.

Dee, Scarface was a movie dude, and he died at the end.

Then I'm gonna be the first one then! Damn. I'm gonna be the first one, Q!

What's up with you, man? You gettin' soft on me or something?

What's up?

Man, I gotta go. Where? Where you gotta go?

I got a date.

Dude, we got-- Yo, Q. Yo, we got that thing at 9:00, man.

Don't forget we got that thing at 9:00, Q.

What's up, man? There's always something going on with this dude, man.

Hey, Sister.

- Hi. - You came.

Listen, I should probably let you know that, um, I'm not interested.

I didn't come for you. I came for me.

[ Chuckles ] Hey.

Come on now. Come on. Come on now.

We're here to study the word of God.

Hi, Quintin. I'm so glad you could come.

I'm so glad.

Um, how long do we have to stay?

- I may have to leave a little early. - That's fine.

You can leave anytime. I'm just glad you came.

Did you really know my mother?

[ Sighs ] Yes, I did.

All right. Does anybody remember what we went over on last week?

I do. Oh. Okay, Alicia.

You can start us off. Okay.

- Arthur! - Uh, yes?

Uh, I cleaned up everything. I'm finished for the day.

Okay, yeah. I know, I know.

Well, why don't you just come over here and join us in our Bible study?

Amen. Amen. Uh, well, okay.

Let us pray.

Lord, we thank you for your presence today.

We thank you for your goodness and your mercy...

and your love and kindness.

And we ask that, as we study your word,

that it does not return void,

but that it falls on fertile ground...

and that it grows forth,

blossoming into precious fruit in our lives.

- Amen. - Amen.

Okay, last week we ended our study talking about what?

- Does anybody remember? - Grace.

All right. Our lesson today is going to be out of Psalms.

So let us turn to Psalms, chapter one.

Sister Patterson, do you really think God cares about us?

How do you know?

What if God has just abandoned us?

I mean, look around, you know.

You all look like pretty nice people,

but once you go out there, it ain't nothin' nice.

Just look at me.

I was the son of a crackhead,

and my stepfather was a dope fiend that liked little boys.

Where was God for me?

And they say he takes care of babies and old people,

but where was he when I needed to be taken care of?

All I know is the streets.

It wasn't God that did that to you and your mother.

It was those same streets that you seem to glorify.

You know, I bet that it was the same God...

that kept you here today...

where you can just sit here and even tell about it.

And if your mother-- if she would have just listened to the word of God...

instead of listening to those streets out there,

she would be here today to tell about it.

But you know what? You know what?

It's not too late. It's not too late, son.

God wants to save you. He wants to bring you out of those streets.

I can see it on you. He wants to help you.

And if you just let him--

[ Chuckles ] whoo--

you can be something else in God.

It's not too late.

Man, Sister Patterson, you have no idea--

all the bad things I've done, all the people I hurt.

That's because all this world has to offer you, son,

is lies, death,

deceit and destruction.

But God-- God can offer you life...

and give you something that you've never seen before.

Young man, you think you have the whole world ahead of you,

but all you have is what I have--

today,

right now.

But what would God want with me?

I'm nothing. I'm less than nothing.

Why-- Why would he save me?

I know, I know.

You see, I say that to myself every day, son.

But I've come to the understanding...

it's his grace.

Grace.

Yo, Q. Yo, man, we gotta go, man.

Yo, man, we gotta go. Your mom want you, man.

- I gotta go. - Where you going?

Yo, come on, man. We gotta go.

A'ight. I'm comin'.

Quintin, where you going?

- I gotta go. - Yo, come on, man. Your mom wanted me to come get you.

Quintin, you don't have to leave.

You don't have to go.

I gotta go.

Yo, we gotta go. We don't got time for this shit.

You watch your mouth, young man!

Dude, we gotta go.

Son. Son.

Your mother came here just like you.

She wanted to get her life back.

But she was seeing this man, and he didn't want her to come here.

And this one day she came and brought you here,

and then he burst in here...

and he took you and your mother away.

We gotta go, man.

The next time I heard about your mother, she was dead.

- We gotta go. You doin' all this over some bitch? - You in a church, man.

- Watch your mouth. - I gotta go, Sister Patterson.

Is that what you really want to do?

I can't leave my friend hangin' like that.

Your friend? If you think that he's your friend, I feel sorry for you.

Who? Yeah, I'm his friend, man. Who is you?

Look-- Matter of fact, I think I remember you, dude.

- I gotta go. - You were right, just like in the park.

You were right then, and you're right now. What do you mean the park?

- You don't have to go. - Wait, man, you look familiar. Who is you?

I gotta go. I'm sorry, Sister.

Come back, and we'll pray with you.

Come back, and we'll pray for him also.

Remember, you gotta stand for something.

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for nothin'.

Are you-- Are you listening?

You cannot serve both God and mammon.

[ Coughing ]

You all right? You okay?

Yes. It's just-- [ Clears Throat ]

Thank you, Arthur. I'm okay, I'm okay. It's just, these kids--

They're dying in the streets, Arthur. It's just--

I don't know. They're killing each other.

They have no regard for the community.

They have no regard for themselves.

Arthur, they have no regard for life.

And they're just chasing lies. It's just lies.

I-- I remember when Reverend Patterson--

We-- Oh, we wanted to have an environment, you know,

just to teach--

to teach these young people...

to have real entrepreneurial skills...

so they could pursue, you know,

their goals and ambitions...

and they could become better people...

and they can just do things the right way.

Right. You know?

You know, Arthur. Yes.

Okay.

Arthur, pray for me. It's gonna be okay.

Pray for me. Okay.

[ Coughing ]

Yo, I ain't goin', man.

What?

- I ain't goin'. - You better stop actin' like a punk.

Tryin' to help you get this money, Q. What's up with you, man?

I don't even need it that bad.

Look, man, I told you-- you either with me or you against me, Q.

Yo, man, I'm tired of this, yo.

-I'm tryin' to be with the Lord. -Ain't what I'm tryin' to hear, man.

- You gonna shoot me? - Yeah.

You know what? What the reverend said was right.

You can't serve God, mammal-- or whatever, man.

[ Gunshot ] [ Grunts ]

[ Vacuum Cleaner Stops ] Hey, young lady.

Hello.

Um, can I ask you a question?

Yes.

Your friend, he seems kind of quiet.

So, you want to know about him?

Well, actually, I do. Hmm.

Well, I've been tryin' to figure that out myself.

What do you mean? You don't know him?

About as well as you do.

But, um,

I can tell you this. What?

[ Sighs ]

He saved my life.

Vanessa, there's something that I have to tell you about,

and it can't wait any longer.

- What's wrong, Dr. Williams? - It's about your mother.

[ Whimpering ] Yonni, what's wrong, baby? What's happened?

Where's Nana? Vanessa!

Doctor, thank God you're here!

It's your mother-- she's passed out on the ground!

Oh, my God! Jesus!

- [ All Chattering ] - [ Woman ] I don't know, but I hope she be all right.

I just came from the hospital,

and my mother, she's gonna be just fine.

[ Tambourine Rattling ]

Now, she's gonna need a couple of days to rest,

but in no time, she'll be back here...

running around, savin' souls for Jesus.

[ Applauding, Exclaiming ]

Now, we don't have anyone to run our services today, so--

- Yes, we do. - Arthur?

If I could just say a couple of words.

Yes, come on up.

[ Woman ] Hallelujah!

Praise the Lord. [ Congregation ] Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord. I knew I knew you.

I knew I knew him.

- Pastor Price? - How you doin', Sister Kecia?

I knew I knew him! Did you say "pastor"?

Yes, this is my pastor from New Orleans.

We thought you was dead.

I was.

I mean, my heart was still beating,

but my spirit had died.

You know, I had worked hard to build that church.

I built it with my own two hands.

And, uh, when the floods came,

I stayed.

How prideful was I?

I just knew that God would not let nothin' happen...

to the church that I had built.

Now I realize it was just that--

the church that I had built.

I was so worried about the building...

that I had forgot about the church...

that the Lord had built for us.

Sister Stevens--

I got to her first.

She was so stubborn.

I said to her, "Sister Stevens, come on now. The water's rising.

We need to leave. We need to go."

Sister said, "Pastor,

if this is the day that the Lord has prepared for me to leave,

then I'm happy to go."

Wonderful woman Sister-- Sister Stevens was.

And then there was Deacon Gary.

I said, "Deacon. Deacon, the water is risin'. We need to go.

We need to leave."

Deacon said to me,

"Pastor, you go on and save yourself.

You go on and help them other people.

You need to go 'cause the Lord still got a lot of work left for you to do."

Then there was...

Sister Geraldine Baxter and her family.

And there was many, many more.

I told them all,

"Don't worry. Don't worry. Somebody's gonna come.

Somebody's gonna come and save us."

And we just sat there and we waited...

and we prayed,

and we waited and we prayed.

But nobody came.

Nobody came.

There was no rescue.

There was no helicopters.

I watched them all die.

One by one, I watched them all die.

All that water risin' up all around us,

and not a drop of water to drink.

I had to-- I had to leave there.

I-I started swimming,

and I swam and I swam.

Then I started walking, and I walked and I walked, and--

All I could see was suffering and pain.

For so many years I had told people to have faith,

to hold on, wait on the Lord.

And, uh, I thought about it.

I said, like, how could I go on living...

with all the things that I had...

and there were so many people out there suffering--

suffering right there--

and nobody cares?

Nobody cares.

Lord, I was-- I was tired,

and I couldn't understand...

why God had left me alive.

All those people-- [ Sighs ]

They trusted me.

And God kept me alive.

I didn't want to be alive. I wanted to go and be with God...

'cause I was tired of all the suffering and all the pain.

I thought that God had forgot me.

I thought that God had forgot us all.

And then I-- I came here...

and I-- I met Sister Patterson,

and I saw her faith.

And she showed me that God hadn't left me.

He hadn't left us.

I had left God.

When I came here, she, uh,

gave me a stack of clothes,

and on the bottom of that stack was this robe.

I want to tell you here today,

I'm an ordained minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

And if y'all will have me,

if y'all will have me,

I'd be happy to be your pastor.

Lord, Lord, forgive me, Lord.

Thank you. Thank you, Lord. You brought me from a mighty long way.
