You promise to obey your bishop and those

I so promise.

Okay. Even when I disagree.

I wanted to ask...
20
00:01:49,234 --> 00:01:51,476
I don't see a piano anywhere.
21
00:01:52,029 --> 00:01:53,611
Oh, it's long gone.
22

Evidently, they haven't told you
about some of our blemishes.
23
00:01:58,994 --> 00:02:01,407
But I thought you were a journalist,
not a pianist.

Oh, I was.
25
00:02:03,582 --> 00:02:06,746
But Michael and I wanted to work together,
26
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,542
and I've always wanted to lead a choir.

00:02:45,999 --> 00:02:49,834
So, do an inventory, assess
the value of the property.
36

37

but helping these people face
their loss is godly work.
41

Couple of months, we'll find you

42

We didn't meet before. I'm Michael.
48
00:03:29,876 --> 00:03:31,708
You're here to sell the church, ain'tcha?
49
00:03:32,713 --> 00:03:33,703
Strip it.
50
00:03:34,005 --> 00:03:34,995
Sell the land.
51
00:03:35,757 --> 00:03:37,464
I'm here to be your pastor. What's your name?
52
00:03:38,135 --> 00:03:39,296
It don't matter.
53
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,507
We ain't gonna know each other long enough.
54
00:03:42,055 --> 00:03:43,421
Well, we don't really know that.
55
00:03:44,641 --> 00:03:47,679
We do know that 30 acres of prime bottom land
56
00:03:47,769 --> 00:03:49,886
will buy a whole lot of pointy bishop hats.
57
00:03:50,731 --> 00:03:52,597
That's probably true, but the fact is
58
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:54,307
there's just too many empty pews in there.
59
00:03:54,651 --> 00:03:56,142
Well, that ain't a pastor talkin'.
60
00:03:57,028 --> 00:03:58,144
That's an errand boy.
61
00:03:58,739 --> 00:04:02,358
Errand boy? No, I'm not really an errand boy.
62
00:04:02,617 --> 00:04:04,358
But you had 12 people in that church today.
63
00:04:05,036 --> 00:04:06,777
Jesus had 12 people.
64
00:04:07,497 --> 00:04:08,658
He done all right, didn't he?
65
00:04:09,291 --> 00:04:11,783
Jesus didn't have an $850,000 mortgage.
66
00:04:12,878 --> 00:04:15,962
You know, a church is more
than a bunch of billfolds,
67
00:04:16,047 --> 00:04:18,664
or didn't your preacher school
teach you that?
68
00:04:23,013 --> 00:04:24,595
He sounds like an old crank.
69
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:27,302
You brought me to a church
full of old cranks.
70
00:04:27,809 --> 00:04:29,675
I think they prefer "senior cranks."
71
00:04:30,187 --> 00:04:32,770
Hey, did it bug you today,
what he said in service?
72
00:04:33,106 --> 00:04:35,063
I don't know why he's worried,
'cause I'm not going back
73
00:04:35,150 --> 00:04:36,732
to sales, that just about killed us.
74

He knows your history.
75
00:04:38,528 --> 00:04:41,487
In this job, you can't get mouthy
with the boss and take a better gig.
76
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:44,611
Well, I guess that's covered by the
big cross on the side of the building.
77
00:04:46,161 --> 00:04:48,448
Besides, if I was a little
contrary at work sometimes...
78
00:04:48,538 --> 00:04:49,699
Oh, contrary?
79
00:04:49,998 --> 00:04:51,864
You threw coffee at your last boss.
80
00:04:52,250 --> 00:04:55,243
Well, spilled it accidentally,
probably correcting his math.

You know, if I wasn't a model
citizen at those old jobs,
82
00:04:59,883 --> 00:05:02,500
it's 'cause I hadn't woken up
to this job yet.
83

- Amen.

You're quite a salesman, ain't you?
532
00:32:13,390 --> 00:32:15,803
That's no sales job. Look at that land.

You don't say much, do you?
536
00:32:26,027 --> 00:32:27,359
I'm fixing to say plenty.
537

All Saints ain't no farm.

00:32:35,328 --> 00:32:37,411
This... this is a farm.
540
00:32:39,791 --> 00:32:41,703
Know how you get seeds into the ground?
541
00:32:42,252 --> 00:32:43,242
Plow.
542
00:32:43,837 --> 00:32:45,578
Know how they plow? Tractor.
543
00:32:47,007 --> 00:32:49,044
Know how seeds sprout? Water.
544
00:32:49,759 --> 00:32:52,342
Know how you water? Boom sprayer.
545
00:32:52,804 --> 00:32:53,794
We've got dozens of people.
546
00:32:54,473 --> 00:32:58,057
Yeah, well, maybe they can...
maybe they can plant.
547
00:32:58,310 --> 00:33:00,643
If the weather holds, maybe they can harvest.
548

But they ain't gonna keep your fields wet.
549
00:33:05,275 --> 00:33:07,767
But this is so good for us,
especially the Karen.
550

They don't need you
swooping in there, saving them.

that would have ate you for breakfast.

Exactly.
553
00:33:15,911 --> 00:33:18,528
I'd need their help over there
just like they need our help here.
554
00:33:18,914 --> 00:33:22,078
Them people are not here to pick your
beans. They're here to be Americans.

What's more American than farming?

Well, I ain't.

He didn't say it, but I know it was.
583
00:34:59,514 --> 00:35:01,380
Whatever. I'll manage without him.
584
00:35:01,891 --> 00:35:03,883
You should take Ye Win with you to the B&C.
585
00:35:05,061 --> 00:35:07,553

He led a brigade in the war.
590
00:35:15,905 --> 00:35:19,023
He kept them together for
five years in a refugee camp.
591
00:35:19,743 --> 00:35:20,733
You're taking him with you.
592
00:35:21,369 --> 00:35:22,951

know American hygiene.

aren't a danger to them.

Ye Win, he's growing stuff
like there's no tomorrow.
1053
01:06:08,214 --> 01:06:11,298
Hey, hey, be careful there.
My wife planted that.
1054
01:06:14,554 --> 01:06:15,544
Sorry.
1055
01:06:18,141 --> 01:06:20,053
Anyway, Ye Win probably
told you all about it.
1056
01:06:20,393 --> 01:06:22,806
If he hadn't, you wouldn't
have got past the front door.
1057
01:06:24,063 --> 01:06:26,931
Did he tell you that Jess Harlowe
gave me a boom sprayer?
1058
01:06:29,235 --> 01:06:31,568
Yeah. I bumped into Jess Harlowe...
1059
01:06:32,197 --> 01:06:33,483
Gives me one, just like that.

Come on, you got to be a little excited.
It's just what we need.
1063
01:06:41,039 --> 01:06:43,656
You got half of what you need.
You need a tractor to pull it.
1064

If you try to hook that thing
up to Mary O's old pickup,
1065
01:06:46,753 --> 01:06:47,743
you're gonna crack the block.
1066
01:06:52,550 --> 01:06:54,007
You already done that, ain't you?
1067
01:06:54,093 --> 01:06:57,302
Yeah. That's why I need you around,
to keep my stupid on a leash.

Do you think you can trust me?

Nope.

All right, fair enough.

Maybe the Karen will never make a home here.

Maybe you're an old crank.

If all that's true, then maybe All Saints

1575
01:40:02,997 --> 01:40:07,367
New York City, St. Thomas Church.
Midtown. That big one.
1576
01:40:07,793 --> 01:40:09,250
Technically, it's a promotion.
1577
01:40:10,004 --> 01:40:11,711
But we've built a home here.
1578
01:40:11,797 --> 01:40:14,540
You should've heard him,
"Son, we need you up there."
1579
01:40:16,677 --> 01:40:18,134
St. Thomas is a dream church.
1580
01:40:19,222 --> 01:40:20,679
What could they possibly want from us?
1581
01:40:22,475 --> 01:40:23,682
Maybe an aqueduct.
1582
01:40:26,020 --> 01:40:27,431
(BOTH CHUCKLING)
1583
01:40:34,529 --> 01:40:36,691

MAN: (SINGING) <i>What do you see in me?</i>
1587
01:42:40,821 --> 01:42:43,404
<i>All those years are gone</i>
1588
01:42:45,493 --> 01:42:48,236
<i>When you were planting seeds</i>
1589
01:42:49,997 --> 01:42:54,708
<i>Did you expect my</i>
<i>crooked branches would grow?</i>
1590
01:42:55,544 --> 01:42:58,207
<i>The kind of fruit that feeds</i>
1591
01:43:00,675 --> 01:43:06,967
<i>Or the kind that leaves you wanting more</i>
1592
01:43:10,101 --> 01:43:13,265
<i>When I'm feeling tired</i>
1593
01:43:14,188 --> 01:43:16,726
<i>My head is hanging low</i>
1594
01:43:19,402 --> 01:43:24,443
<i>And I can't find my way back</i>
1595
01:43:25,491 --> 01:43:31,988
<i>Can I follow you home?</i>
1596
01:43:43,384 --> 01:43:46,843
<i>The second you believed</i>
1597
01:43:48,347 --> 01:43:50,430
<i>All those years ago</i>
1598
01:43:52,893 --> 01:43:56,728
<i>When you were pruning me</i>
1599
01:43:57,773 --> 01:44:02,359
<i>Said my crooked branches would grow</i>
1600
01:44:02,611 --> 01:44:05,900
<i>The kind of fruit that feeds</i>
1601
01:44:07,241 --> 01:44:14,159
<i>The kind that feeds the body, mind and soul</i>
1602
01:44:17,293 --> 01:44:21,537
<i>When I'm feeling tired</i>
1603
01:44:21,672 --> 01:44:24,380

<i>Can I follow you home?</i>
1606
01:44:41,108 --> 01:44:44,977
<i>When I'm feeling tired</i>
1607
01:44:45,362 --> 01:44:49,527
<i>When I'm feeling all alone</i>
1608
01:44:50,618 --> 01:44:55,283
<i>And I can't see the road ahead</i>
1609
01:44:55,623 --> 01:45:02,211
<i>Can I follow you home?</i>
1610
01:45:33,619 --> 01:45:37,078

<i>My hope is built on nothing less</i>
1617
01:46:14,994 --> 01:46:20,080
<i>Than Jesus' blood and righteousness</i>
1618
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:25,995
<i>I dare not trust the sweetest frame</i>
1619
01:46:26,797 --> 01:46:31,758
<i>But wholly lean on Jesus' name</i>
1620
01:46:32,720 --> 01:46:36,714
<i>On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand</i>
1621
