00:00 (calm upbeat music)
00:05 - Oh, yes, stay right there.
00:08 Stay right down there we will right back.
00:13 Welcome everybody to A Talking Donkey International
00:16 in our new television series Country Wisdom.
00:19 - Let's set the tone for this new series of ours,
00:22 it's found in Proverbs 4.
00:24 "Let your eyes look directly forward
00:27 and your gaze be straight before you
00:30 ponder the path of your feet
00:33 and then all your ways we'll be sure."
00:36 - Join us now for Country Wisdom.
00:43 You know, in fishing on a large body of water,
00:46 you say, well, why fish?
00:47 I can't see the fish but there's evidence
00:50 the people say they've caught fish.
00:52 There's once in a while somebody said, yeah
00:54 I saw one jump over there all of these things.
00:57 in life hope, is there any hope?
01:00 Well, we can talk with a lot of people who have
01:03 a lot of hope because they've seen God working in their life
01:07 where there was no hope before.
01:09 Stay tuned to hear some of these amazing stories
01:12 about God has reached into lives
01:14 and given hope where there was no hope.
01:19 (soft upbeat music)
01:30 Wow Dr. Steve, we're out here in your boat
01:32 fishing a little bit.
01:34 - We're trying to.
01:35 - There you go, trying to, why do you fish?
01:39 - Well, I wish I knew for sure why I fish.
01:41 (laughing)
01:43 But as long as I can remember, I love the idea of fishing
01:49 and there was always something just wanting to see
01:52 that fish, I was excited every time I got to chance
01:59 when I was a kid, my parents took me out one time
02:01 and we went to Whitney portal
02:03 and there's a pond there where there were trout fishing.
02:06 And man, I wanted to fish with them.
02:08 - I think maybe, maybe God gave us a little bit
02:11 of fishing in our, in our blood.
02:14 I mean, you think about Jesus
02:17 he met the disciples fishing.
02:19 And he didn't say, I don't want you to fish anymore.
02:22 He actually instructed them a little bit
02:23 on how to fish with his help right?
02:25 - Yeah, well, he said he even changed
02:28 their direction of fishing a little bit.
02:30 He says, "I'll make you fishers of men,"
02:33 but he didn't do that before he gave them some hope
02:37 in what he was gonna do with them, for them.
02:40 - No, that brings up an interesting point.
02:43 Why fish out here?
02:45 How do you know there's a single fish in this lake?
02:47 - Because if it were up to me,
02:49 we would not be out in this boat on a day like today.
02:52 And I look, and I think, there's a reason
02:54 we're the only fishermen out here right now.
02:57 - The only crazy people.
02:58 (laughing)
02:59 But, basically I think it's because you talk to others
03:03 and they say, fishing's good out on this Lake.
03:05 And I've seen other people catch fish.
03:08 So ergo, there must be fish.
03:10 - Right and in fact, before I started fishing here,
03:13 this winter or this spring,
03:16 it was one of those things where,
03:19 I had someone say, boy I heard they're really
03:21 catching them down there at Lake Siskiyou.
03:23 And I fished here before this is not the first time I fished
03:27 and we caught fish.
03:30 So I have hope that there's fishing
03:32 there's fish to be caught.
03:34 - There you go, God never wants us
03:37 to base there on the gospel side.
03:39 He just doesn't want us to go blindly with no hope,
03:43 no faith, He gives us evidence doesn't He.
03:45 - And I think you were just touching on that
03:47 that Jesus gave the disciples evidence
03:51 before he went and asked him to do something
03:53 as crazy as being fishers of men.
03:55 - Right, you think about it here.
03:57 We've been fishing here for a little while now
03:59 and we've not even, well, I think maybe I had a bite or two
04:02 but kinda like the disciples.
04:04 We haven't caught anything and we're just, we're just hoping
04:10 that there'll be something here.
04:12 But they came in after a night of fishing and he says,
04:16 "Well, have you caught anything?"
04:18 I can hear him sort of saying I like we would nowadays.
04:21 Well, boys you had anything, any luck.
04:24 (laughing)
04:25 - Yeah, yeah.
04:26 - And they says, no, man, we fished all night.
04:31 And of course back there, their nets weren't as invisible
04:34 as the fishing lines that we use today, they could be seen.
04:37 And so they fished at night.
04:39 So the fish couldn't see their nets.
04:43 - That was a really interesting story because he said,
04:45 "No go on now it's daytime cast out,
04:49 they said, you're crazy.
04:50 - Yeah, no one ever does that, we worked hard all night.
04:53 We didn't catch them, there's no hope
04:55 - Yeah they thought Jesus must be what,
04:58 a city slicker or something because
04:59 He had no idea how to fish.
05:01 - Well, you know, Oh Peter, you know, he was one of those
05:03 quintessential fishermen that he just kinda knew fishing,
05:08 you know, he and James and John, they had it together.
05:13 - They grown up there doing that.
05:15 - That's, you know, other, their parents there
05:17 or fishermen that, so they were fishermen.
05:20 And so he says, he says there's hope.
05:26 - Oops
05:27 - Nope, got up on the bottom.
05:28 (laughter)
05:30 - Got my hopes up there for a moment.
05:33 - Nope, no hope now
05:35 - I'm hung up now
05:38 - But that's they says, you know
05:41 he didn't really doesn't know what he's talking about
05:43 but we will, we'll go ahead and humor him, you know?
05:47 - Yeah, well,
05:49 Jesus spent so much time on the sea of Galilee.
05:52 One of the stories to me that is so exciting,
05:55 he'd preached to the crowds
05:56 for several days and he's so tired.
05:59 And he tells the disciples goes down the legs that get
06:01 in the boat and score with the other side.
06:04 Now, today it is kinda cold out here as lightly, storming.
06:07 It was raining earlier, but they got out on that sea.
06:11 And it started really storming.
06:13 So much so the Bible said basically
06:15 the boat was filling up with water.
06:17 These are seasoned fishermen
06:20 and they're figuring they're going to die.
06:22 No, you remember what happened next.
06:26 - What was Jesus doing?
06:28 - He was sound asleep in the back of the boat
06:31 and Peter just goes, nuts, goes up to him
06:34 sees him at the last moment is the Lord don't you care?
06:38 We're going to die.
06:40 - And of course he cared because he cares about all of us
06:43 not just his best friends,
06:46 the fact that he was sleeping
06:48 didn't indicate he didn't care.
06:50 It indicated his trust in the father.
06:53 - Yes, yeah, no total trust and then, He stands up
06:58 in the boat, says raising his hands says peace be still.
07:00 And then all that water immediately stills.
07:03 And I think about the storms in in our lives
07:07 everybody today has got storms and their whole lives
07:09 And I'm like, Peter, I'm the one going
07:13 what are we going to do?
07:13 What are we going to do?
07:14 Don't you even care?
07:17 - Yeah, but he stilled that water.
07:19 It just moved out like a mirror
07:20 and immediately bible says got to the other shore,
07:24 the shore they're going to now
07:26 is really interesting to me,
07:27 that when he got in the boat in the first place.
07:30 He said, let's go where to the far shore, to the far shore
07:34 with go to the other side, when God did you to go someplace
07:37 he doesn't leave you in the middle.
07:40 ( laughter)
07:41 - He dint say I'll meet you over there.
07:42 - Yeah, and it also doesn't mean
07:44 that there won't be storms on the way to the goalpost.
07:48 - Absolutely, and of course we're facing that
07:50 a lot of that storm right now, there you go.
07:54 We're, we're facing that
07:57 that storm right now in this pandemic.
08:00 a lot of us are wondering, is this the
08:03 just the beginning of that final storm, you know?
08:07 And there are a lot of people
08:10 in the world if they have no hope
08:13 if they don't have a belief in God, that if they
08:16 if they haven't seen how he works in your life
08:20 they don't have any hope there.
08:22 They look at the world and they're going, man.
08:25 You know, it's just hopeless.
08:27 In fact, there's an estimate that at least 75,000 people
08:34 in the United States are likely to die from suicide
08:37 because of their loss of hope because of the depression,
08:43 the, the the just there's nothing
08:44 that they are looking forward to.
08:48 - They don't see a way out.
08:49 - I know you mentioned that the suicide and the depression
08:52 Jesus had gone over to that other shore.
08:54 And the first thing to net, there was a guy
08:57 who was absolutely crazy.
08:59 I mean, the Bible says he had 2000 demons in him.
09:02 He's naked, he's screaming.
09:04 He he'd been cutting himself.
09:06 He'd been, you know, self mutilating.
09:09 He'd been doing all these things.
09:12 And what does it say?
09:13 All the disciples ran away.
09:14 That's the category.
09:16 I'd probably find myself is this crazy man comes out
09:20 on the tomb and you're not going to,
09:22 it looks like he's going to kill you,
09:23 but Jesus stood his ground.
09:25 And he cast out those 2000 demons.
09:28 That's, what's exciting, whatever demons we've got
09:31 in our lives, whatever you call it
09:32 whatever's going on in your life.
09:34 God can re leaf them.
09:36 - Right there, there's no issue with him.
09:38 And that's one of the things that
09:39 that a lot of people, they don't understand.
09:42 The hugeness of God.
09:44 I've been reading a little bit about
09:46 some of the cosmological evidences for God.
09:49 And from the from the tiniest Atom and subatomic particles
09:56 which are increasingly more complex
09:59 we are amazed to understand to the hugeness
10:03 of the of the universe maybe a billion billion galaxies,
10:10 similar to ours.
10:14 The, the fact that God is in control of all of that is,
10:19 You almost wonder, why does he care about us on this planet?
10:24 - Yeah, yeah I want people to know that too
10:27 that as we've talked about this, that, yeah now
10:31 Jesus will take care of everything while it's true.
10:35 There can be stages of that.
10:36 There could be situations where you're
10:38 you're a medical doctor, not in the profession,
10:41 probably speaking of at the moment, but
10:43 but people may need some other help to get
10:46 to those stages of getting life together.
10:49 Again, is that a correct statement?
10:51 - Absolutely, and, not only does he
10:55 give us the spiritual health that we need, but sometimes
11:00 he is given us the medical help, not just it's
11:09 it's not just the spiritual help,
11:12 but sometimes he's equipped us with knowledge
11:15 about the incredible increase in knowledge has given us
11:19 the ability to do things, to, to help people who are
11:22 in trouble like that.
11:23 They, they can have a lot better a result.
11:26 And what we really want to be able of course to
11:32 do is to rely on Jesus because he's, he's
11:34 he really is the final solution to this.
11:37 - He's the only solution.
11:38 - Amen, Yeah, only true total solution.
11:41 Right? The only, not only total solution
11:43 but there are times when counseling
11:45 or perhaps even a medication might make a difference
11:50 in getting you to where you can calm your mind enough
11:54 To be able to hear his voice more clearly.
11:57 - You know, when you were talking
11:58 about the man who was just crazy, essentially
12:02 who had no hope in his life, you know, was violent
12:06 to a self and to others and Jesus didn't run for them.
12:11 He helped him.
12:13 One time I heard someone who made the statement
12:17 that no Christian should ever be depressed.
12:22 And if there hadn't been other people around
12:26 I wanted to rise up because I've had periods
12:32 not as bad as that man in the Bible
12:34 but I've had periods where I'm not really coping.
12:38 I have had two periods in my life where, because
12:42 of circumstances and brain chemistry and hormones,
12:45 what, the perfect storm of it all
12:48 where I have everything has looked black,
12:52 it's been like a black wet blanket over me
12:56 and I can barely breathe.
12:58 - And you're a Christian who love Jesus.
12:59 - Yes, In fact, if I hadn't had that, that glimmer of hope
13:05 I don't know that I would still be here today.
13:08 When I was only 16,
13:11 I stood in front of the medicine cabinet at home.
13:15 And my mother had quite the aray because she had a problem
13:19 with prescription drugs.
13:22 And I stood there trying to figure out what combination
13:26 of which ones would just make it all go away.
13:30 And to this day, I'm not entirely certain why
13:35 I shut the cabinet door and walked away.
13:38 I'm pretty sure that some angel said no, don't
13:43 don't do that because this is momentary.
13:46 You've got this whole life.
13:48 But at the moment, I didn't know it.
13:49 I didn't feel like I had anything to look forward to.
13:52 - Let me interrupt for just a second
13:55 because people need to understand,
13:58 God created us for eternity.
13:59 Not for tonight.
14:01 This was a little bitty blip down here
14:03 he will get us through this to the other side
14:06 where everything is glorious.
14:08 - Yes, and that hope is all that gets some of us
14:12 through a day or through our lives.
14:16 And you need to work to keep that hope in front of you.
14:20 So that even in times, that aren't very, very dark.
14:24 I know a lot of people journal,
14:27 I've not been disciplined enough to develop that habit
14:29 I should but I haven't.
14:32 But there are times where I've had to stop
14:35 and think and remind myself of all the ways,
14:39 some tiny some bigger that, a little blessing,
14:45 the little times that as small as going out for a walk
14:49 and all of a sudden noticing this tiny flower
14:51 in the middle of a bunch of weeds or something
14:53 and it just makes you smile.
14:56 That little bit of hope.
14:57 I'll stop and consciously think God
15:00 thank you for pointing that out to me
15:01 someday I'm going to need to remember that.
15:04 - Yeah, there was, I don't know if you guys
15:06 this was many years ago, but when I became a Christian
15:10 I heard of this guy named was Glenn Coon.
15:12 And when he went around that's country touring
15:16 on the ABCs of prayer, ask believe and claim.
15:20 And he always talked about, we need to praise God.
15:22 Even when there's days we don't feel like it,
15:26 and if you don't feel like it, he says
15:27 hold your breath for five minutes.
15:29 And at the end of the five minutes
15:31 see if you can praise God for this breath
15:34 - Nobody can hold her for five minutes he's gonna pass out.
15:37 - I've been praising God way before that.
15:39 ( laughter)
15:40 - But It's really true.
15:41 You'll think about it when you start.
15:43 I have journaled on for many years and it really is a
15:47 is a high point while I'm when I do journal
15:50 because I could have, I'm the kind of guy
15:53 that can get in bed at night, lay down, close my eyes.
15:57 Thank you, Lord, for the food I'm for partaking of.
15:59 Wait a second.
16:00 It's not that time.
16:03 I'm starting to go to sleep already.
16:07 - You know, that's him.
16:09 - I lay down, I'm gone.
16:12 - So it give you a little focus.
16:14 You can thank God for everything of the day
16:17 and you can do this
16:19 and do that kinda get you on that journey.
16:21 But I think especially, as we, as you mentioned
16:24 about suicide, the devil wants to destroy people.
16:28 He, he wants to depress people.
16:30 He wants to make everything look black
16:32 and bleak and totally Drury.
16:34 And it's not that way in, in life.
16:37 There's always somebody who cares and on this earth
16:40 even if there's nobody who cares, God does God in the form
16:45 of Jesus Christ came to this earth and died for you.
16:49 And so there's somebody who really cares, you know
16:52 that they will give up their life for you and all he has.
16:55 So they ought to know that, Hey, there, there is hope
16:58 lots of hope more than us knowing.
17:00 There's a few fish in the Lake.
17:01 There's a lot of hope, right?
17:03 - That's all right.
17:04 Speaking of a lot of hope, they told me that
17:06 just a day and a half ago,
17:08 they put a bunch of more fish in this Lake
17:11 for us to fish for.
17:13 I haven't been able to tell it yet today but.
17:16 - He must've put him in on the other side of the Lake
17:18 and they haven't gotten this far.
17:21 - I think about I was down in Costa Rica
17:26 and met this, this old fellow that
17:30 his grandfather, his daughter-in-law, his daughter-in-law.
17:33 Yeah, his son had died already.
17:34 Daughter-in-law ended up with cancer
17:38 and she had a 10 year old boy
17:40 and she needed to get to the hospital for treatment.
17:44 Who else?
17:45 He, in that day, the grandpa was there
17:48 with the grandson and they waved goodbye to mom.
17:52 The only problem is that was the last time
17:54 they ever saw a mom.
17:54 She died his hospital.
17:57 He is totally depressed now.
17:58 He is just feeling horrible.
18:00 He's got a 10 year old kid he's
18:03 in his late seventies and just feeling rotten.
18:05 Then he discovers he's got cancer.
18:09 And now the cancer is starting to get so bad.
18:12 He's in pain all the time
18:13 but he doesn't want him to get better
18:15 because he wants to die.
18:17 But it's getting so bad.
18:18 He decides I'm gonna do something about it.
18:19 I'm gonna speed up the process.
18:22 So he, he goes to his house.
18:24 They took me to his house that day.
18:27 Not the day he was going to hang himself.
18:30 This was after the fact, he takes me
18:31 up the spiral staircase and say, you see that beam up there.
18:35 Just that I threw a rope over that beam.
18:38 And he said, I got to use both hands.
18:41 Here I got to describe this to you.
18:43 I took that rope and put it
18:44 - over my head, I was ready to jump down and stairwell
18:46 when I heard music coming from the neighbor next door.
18:50 And he thought I needed to play a little bit of music too
18:53 because maybe someone will hear me coughing
18:56 or choking or whatever, horrible situation.
18:59 He said, I better turn on the TV.
19:00 So I picked the noose up, walked downstairs.
19:03 Now the interesting thing is that the day before
19:07 I know the people, at the television studio
19:10 and the engineer there says it had bothered me so long.
19:14 They had a terrible signal, terrible television signal.
19:18 He said, God impressed him that day
19:20 he had to do something with that signal.
19:21 But he said we had no money for parts
19:23 that we needed so he said.
19:24 I went in the backroom when I started rummaging through
19:27 all these boxes and all this stuff
19:29 to find something after quite a while, he said
19:32 I came up with this one part, I needed that part.
19:35 He said, I needed one more part or kept praying.
19:37 He kept digging through boxes,
19:39 going through all this stuff.
19:40 I found that other part.
19:43 I got so excited.
19:44 I went in, I put those parts in
19:47 turned on our set and we hand up the most powerful signal
19:50 in all the stations in that area in San Jose, Costa Rica.
19:55 Wow, So exciting.
19:57 Now back, to our old man
19:59 who was downstairs with the TV changer
20:01 and he figures I'm gonna find the best channel
20:03 with the loudest sounds.
20:04 And the greatest thing going.
20:06 That's the one I'll stop on.
20:07 So he's flipping through channel.
20:08 All of a sudden he stops on this channel
20:11 that our guy had fixed.
20:14 It's just really beautiful and bright.
20:16 And there's a preacher on there
20:17 right at that moment and says,
20:19 whatever you do, Jesus loves you.
20:21 You remember that whatever is happening in your life,
20:24 Jesus loves you.
20:26 He stops.
20:27 He looks, and there's a phone number at the bottom.
20:31 He calls up the station a lady answers.
20:36 He says, I'm going to kill myself today.
20:38 Is there any reason I shouldn't do it?
20:41 Well, yes, yes he knows.
20:44 God loves you who died for you?
20:46 He gave his life
20:47 because we want you to live and have happiness.
20:51 She said, you need to listen to this program.
20:53 She think it's gonna be on certain times.
20:56 He said, what day?
20:57 What today?
20:58 No, no She said, tomorrow right at this time
21:02 silence on the other end of the phone.
21:04 Well, I guess I can wait a day to kill myself.
21:10 Well, the next day, phone rings.
21:16 What times is that preacher gonna be on
21:18 is he on again?
21:19 She looked and says, yes, he's on tomorrow at the same time,
21:24 silence again on the phone.
21:25 Pretty soon he says, well, I guess I can wait one more day
21:29 to kill myself.
21:32 Third day, he calls up.
21:34 He said, would you please tell me more about this Jesus.
21:41 I wanna know more about this Jesus.
21:45 And she got together with him.
21:46 The two of them began to study and all the time.
21:48 And he calls her his angel.
21:51 And I've been there meeting with them and talking with them.
21:53 God totally healed his life.
21:55 Healed him of cancer, the grandson and he are just having
21:58 a wonderful life together.
22:00 God saved him that is the power of God
22:05 - He saw hope right when he needed it.
22:08 And it wasn't an accident.
22:09 That's a miracle right there.
22:12 But you said something that just hit me too.
22:15 The woman at the station, when he called,
22:18 when she had an answer to give him
22:21 later he calls her his angel.
22:25 Not only do we have to work ourselves to study
22:28 to build a relationship, to keep hope for ourselves
22:32 but we can be somebody else's hope,
22:35 we can be the one that says
22:37 just the right thing at the right time.
22:41 - Very true, we are God's hands an extension of God's love.
22:46 - It's interesting.
22:49 On Sunday, two days ago
22:50 I was out here fishing with other friends
22:54 and we were trolling around the Lake back.
22:56 Just kind of right across, over there.
22:59 We were watching a couple of people kayaking
23:02 and they had their fishing rods out.
23:04 And pretty soon Tim says, he says, Hey
23:09 that guy just fell in.
23:10 He turns his kayak over and we go, wow.
23:16 And I watched for a minute
23:17 and he got the kayak turned back over
23:20 and he was resting over.
23:22 It just kinda, you know, up like you would
23:25 but he couldn't get back in.
23:27 And I says, I think we'd better go over and help him.
23:30 And so we brought our lines in
23:32 I rode over there and we got positioned
23:34 so that we could help him get back in his kayak.
23:38 And he was go, man
23:39 I didn't think I was going to be able to get back in.
23:42 And so that's like even something as simple
23:45 as a little physical help, like that is the kind
23:47 of things that we can do to help others.
23:50 - No you guys nailed it.
23:51 I think it's, it's paying attention to others.
23:54 Where might be able to offer some kind of help.
23:57 I think about this lady in central America that better.
24:03 Well, actually she was in South America
24:06 and she said, you know, my life was wonderful.
24:08 I had everything going in life.
24:10 Well I had two wonderful children
24:12 a good husband and everything.
24:13 And all of a sudden, one day one of my children got sick
24:17 and in a few days died,
24:19 Oh, and a just killed her.
24:21 She was just distraught over that.
24:23 I couldn't imagine it.
24:25 And within a month, the other child got sick and died.
24:28 Now she's at the second funeral and
24:30 and she just can't believe what's going on.
24:34 And pretty soon the husband loose distraught he sets fire
24:38 to himself in front of her and he just lights it up.
24:41 And I mean, the list, this went, on and on.
24:43 I can't imagine the things this woman went through.
24:47 And then she loses her job.
24:49 Then her car, that she loved, its repossessed.
24:53 And now she's only got piano lessons, piano lessons.
24:56 is the only thing she's going to sustain her situation
24:59 and sustain life.
25:02 And after a while they repossessed her piano
25:06 has absolutely nothing.
25:07 Now there's nothing in life.
25:09 And this dear lady, she, one day she's at friend's house
25:15 and he takes some pills out of one friend, isn't there.
25:17 And then she's at another friend's house.
25:19 She takes some more pills, at another friend's house.
25:21 And she does this for several weeks.
25:22 She collects all these pills.
25:23 And finally, one day she locks the door in her house.
25:28 She goes in her bedroom.
25:29 She takes, yeah, as a doctor.
25:31 You'll appreciate this.
25:33 Thanks. 300 pills.
25:35 - Wow
25:37 - I said, what happened? She says well,
25:38 I went to sleep
25:40 for about a half hour and I woke up and felt okay.
25:43 How does that happen?
25:45 Unless they're sugar pills and they weren't.
25:48 Well, she's not going to be deterred.
25:50 She goes to this whole circuit and cycle again.
25:53 And this time she thinks this is
25:55 this is really going to be it.
25:56 And she does it again with hundreds and hundreds of pills
26:01 still nothing, not even, not even sleepiness this time.
26:05 And then finally, third time, I mean, you know, some
26:08 some people will try and come suicide as a call for help.
26:11 - Right.
26:12 - This lady was not calling me.
26:13 And she was in earnest.
26:14 And this day she locked the front door.
26:16 Nobody knows she's home.
26:18 She locked the bathroom door.
26:20 She takes it.
26:21 She splits the wrist in a hot tub
26:22 of water who gets down in the tub and just relaxes.
26:26 The next thing she wakes up in the hospital
26:29 up in a hospital, someone thought, where is she
26:32 they kick the door down, go through the house
26:34 come and find her in the tub, blood everywhere, haul her to
26:37 the hospital and save her.
26:40 Now, while she's in the hospital, the, the nurse comes in
26:44 and says, you need to listen to this.
26:46 And it switched to a channel.
26:48 And on the preacher comes and says, Jesus loves you so much.
26:50 You know, as the same story, what ever is going on
26:53 in your life?
26:54 You know, God loves you.
26:55 Don't give up.
26:57 God loves you.
26:58 And Terry, you know, he and I traveled all over the world
27:02 you know, filming and stories and things.
27:04 We got to spend time with this lady,
27:06 such a sweet sweet lady through all of this mess.
27:09 God gave her hope.
27:11 (calm music)
27:29 I wrote a little book a while back called overcoming
27:32 the three D's depression, discouragement, despair.
27:35 It's helped thousands of people.
