adventures.

He was lucky.

Luck had nothing

to do with it.

God had it all planned out.

Remember, history is "his story"

being told through our lives.

In fact, if you open

your bible today,

You'll find two letters Paul

wrote to his young friend

That were added

to the scriptures.

So what does that have to do

with my problems?

Well, if you don't know

God's power

Demonstrated throughout

history...

Then it can't help me

today.

I knew you would understand.

[Calculator chattering]

You did not tell me so.

"Your mistake is you don't

know the scriptures

And you don't know the power

of God" - Matthew 22:29.

Zachary, God cares about you

And he knows your

family's struggles.

When you read the bible,

You'll discover how

he helped people

Through their struggles

And you'll learn to

trust him with yours.

So how do I do that?

Well, start by studying

for your history test

And keep praying

and reading the bible

So you never forget

that God's power is

Available to you today

and always.

I can do that.

Good. Now, get out of here.

[Calculator chattering]

Don't worry, T.I.,

he'll be back.

Really, Woody?

I always wanted to do that.

I need something.

[Instrumental music]

I know we have one somewhere.

Zack, is that you?

Yeah, dad.

What's up?

I'm just looking

for something.

What?

A bible.

A bible?

Yeah, sounds weird,

doesn't it?

No, that doesn't

sound weird at all.

I've never really read it

before, you know?

Well, I've been surprised

at how God seems

To be speaking to me lately

when I read it.

Thanks.

And dad, sorry about the way

I've been acting

About moving here and all.

I understand.

Hey, I'm sorry, too.

Love you, dad.

I love you, too, Zack.

God, I really need help on

this history test tomorrow.

So, can you help me?

And after that, can we

please start working

On those new friends? Amen.

I wonder if there's anything

about Egypt in here.

[Harmonica music]

Did you do your homework?

No. This school has

twice as much homework.

Well, then you'll be

twice as smart.

Yippee.

Do you have any plans tonight?

Well, mom, besides

doing my homework,

I was going to organize

my sock drawer.

Oh, really?

No. I don't have any plans.

Oh, well, I've been invited

to the churches' food pantry

To reorganize their shelves.

Lucky you.

And I need you to help get

your father off to work.

Lucky me.

So come here, this'll be easy.

Just listen carefully.

Do not let the phone ring

more than once, okay?

I do not want your father

To have to get up

before he has to.

Understandable.

(Phone rings)

McGillicutty residence,

Martha McGillicutty speaking.

Do I have to answer

like that too?
