Facing The Giants Page #4

- No, Dad. I'll be home later.

Matt.

That old man still come every week

to pray in the hallway?

Mr. Bridges. Prays for the students

as he passes their locker.

- How long has he been doing that?

- Praying for revival since before I got here.

Lord knows we need it. Apathy in the

school's as bad as our football record.

That reminds me. I think you should go ahead

and let David Childers on the team.

- You see something there?

- He's just used to playing soccer.

He ain't that strong,

but he shows promise.

All right. I'll give him a shot.

One, two, hit!

What are you doing?

Let's stay in the game!

No! No!

Will someone tell me

how we lost to Dewey County 21 to 7?

Dewey County hasn't beaten Shiloh

since you were in kindergarten!

I don't know what you call that junk

out there, but it sure wasn't football.

Nine dropped passes,

four fumbles, three interceptions.

Their defense

scored most of their points!

You gave the game away!

You can't win football games

if you don't play together as a team.

You can't win when you're more concerned

about what you're doing afterwards!

And you can't learn the plays when you miss

practice 'cause you're sittin' in detention.

I'm sick of the apathy on this team.

If we're not here to win football games,

then why are we here?

So, do you agree with him?

I don't know. I guess.

Only a few guys on the team

really seem to care.

So are you ready to play in the game?

I don't know why they would use me

when they've got Joshua Webster.

He can kick a 45-yard field goal.

I bet you could too.

Dad, I can barely kick

a 35-yard field goal.

At the end of the game,

kind of glad I didn't play.

That way, I can't mess up.

- That's fear, son.

- I just don't wanna embarrass the team.

David, I've asked God

since you were a baby

that he would show how strong he is

in your life

and that through you

people would see how good he is.

Then why would he make me

so small and weak?

To show how mighty he is.

Why don't we get washed up for dinner?

We can finish this later.

All right.

Dad.

OK. I'm OK.

- What were you doing?

- You missed a spot up there.

Thought I could get it for you.

I guess I got a little too ambitious.

I was just trying to take a swing at it.

So, what does that mean?

Is there a procedure?

What are my options?

Grant, first you need you realize

this is a fairly common problem for men.

Thousands of couples are unable

to have children. You do have options.

Although there's only

a 10% chance of success,

many couples have tried

in vitro fertilization.

- We can't afford that.

- The other option is to adopt a child.

But it's about as expensive either way.

If you're interested, I'll put you
