He says, "Look, the one that we really want,

the one we're interested in, is that lion.

"Give him up and the rest of you will live.

"The unicorn, we're going

to cut his horn off.

"We'll make him pull a cart

for the rest of his life.

"The bear, we're going to put in chains

and shackles, make him dance in the circus.

"But both Of you Will live.

"All you have to do is give up that lion. "

Finally, the lion looks at his friends with

that look in his eyes,

"What are you going to do?"

And the bear and the

unicorn, they just smile

and they say,

"Of all the deaths that we could have died,

"this right here is the one

we would have chosen. "

But the bear and the lion and the unicorn,

they weren't looking for an easy road.

I don't think Jesus was either

when he accepted the cross.

There's a lot of people,

they don't believe that story anymore than

the one about the lion, the bear,

and the unicorn.

I'm here with you all this morning

because I believe in them both.

And I'll never give up that lion.

- Rosa.

- Sonja.

- How are you?

- I'm good.

I have something I wanted to give you.

It's just something small.

Thank you.

Oh, Sonja, this is too beautiful.

No. Not for her.

- I'll see you guys next Sunday.

- Yeah. Take care.

Look, baby. Sonja gave it to us for Lucia.

It's gorgeous.

You're great when I'm there to inspire you.

If you want to inspire me, you get a hit at

that softball game this afternoon.

Outstanding. I will.

- Watch that ball like that.

- Embarrassing.

- He's a good batter.

- Embarrassing.

All right, Jay!

Hold up.

- Let's go, baby.

- Come on, Sonja!

- Come on, Mama!

- All right! Let's go, Sonja!

Two more!

- Come on, Mama.

- Go!

Go! Go, go, go!

- No!

"Out!

- No, he knocked it loose. He's safe! Safe.

- There you go.

- You can't do that, man. That's dirty.

- Or what? Is there a problem?

Is there a problem?

I'm all right.

You just got me warmed up, baby.

You got me warmed up now.

Come on, baby.

Yeah, let's go. Easy out.

Yeah, Todd!

- Go, Sonja!

- Yes!

- Come on, Todd!

- Safe. Safe.

Michael, Michael! It's bad, it's bad!

Hold on, let me look. Don't move.

Get my bag.

- Yeah, yeah.

- Are you okay?

Todd, just stay still, buddy.

- We have to cut your pants, Todd.

- Don't touch it!

- It's a spiral fracture.

- Is it going to heal?

It'll heal, but he won't be climbing

any ladders soon.

Todd, just stay still, buddy.

I'm going to put some pressure on it,

Todd, okay?

Todd, we gotta lift it up, buddy.

We gotta lift it up.

As many of you already know,

I was hurt sliding into third.

- I was safe.

- No, he was out.

Okay, I was out.

I had a great teacher early in the ministry
