THEN HE HAS EVERY RIGH TO LOOK AROUND.

I TRIED TO TELL HIM.

TO COMPLICATE THINGS.

[HUMMING]

WHAT'S THE MATTER, HONEY?

THE CASH OFFERINGS

MAYBE PEOPLE ARE VOTING

WITH THEIR MONEY.

MAYBE OLIVIA TOMPKINS

THAT PEOPLE ARE SO OUTRAGED

BY MY PRESENCE IN THE PULPIT,

THAT THEY'RE WILLING

TO DESTROY THEIR CHURCH.

MAYBE.

OR MAYBE SOMEBODY'S

STEALING THE OFFERING.

FOR KUNG FU:

OR MILITARY BOOT CAMP.

OH, NOT YET. NO.

NO, OKAY, SERIOUSLY.

I'M THINKING ABOU MOVING OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

ON A MISSIONARY TRIP?

NO. TO TEACH.

YOU'RE LEAVING YOUR CHURCH?

VERY FUNNY.

NO. I'M SERIOUS.

WHAT?

COULD I HAVE:

SOME COFFEE, PLEASE?

WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

YOU'VE MADE IT.

YOU'RE A SENIOR PASTOR

AT A LARGE CHURCH.

YOU'RE-- I MEAN,

YOU'RE WITH THE "IN" CROWD

AT THE MINISTER MEETINGS.

I DON'T SERVE GOD

TO PROVE A POINT.

I SERVE GOD TO SERVE GOD,

AND THIS IS...

THIS IS WHERE:

I FEEL I'M BEING LED.

IF YOU'RE SURE--

I AM.

THEN I'M HAPPY FOR YOU.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

[POURING COFFEE]

SO...

YEAH. WHAT'S BEEN

GOING ON WITH YOU?

'CAUSE YOU'VE BEEN

ACTING FUNNY LATELY.

WHAT ARE YOU:

NOT TELLING ME?

CASE.

COME OUT WITH IT.

I'M LEAVING, TOO.

WOW, THAT'S GREAT.

YOU GOT A NEW JOB?

NO. I'M LEAVING THE MINISTRY.

I'M GOING TO LAW SCHOOL.

I NEVER THOUGH YOU'D BE A QUITTER.

I AM NOT QUITTING.

I'M SIMPLY

CORRECTING MY COURSE.

THERE'S

A DIFFERENCE.

AND I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU.

I'VE BEEN AGONIZING

OVER THIS DECISION,

AND HERE YOU ARE,

CONDEMNING ME,

AFTER YOU'VE JUST TOLD ME

THAT YOU'RE LEAVING.

I'M NOT LEAVING,

I'M JUST GOING

IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION.

WHAT HAPPENED:

TO YOUR CALL TO THE MINISTRY?

I MEAN,

FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS,

YOU'VE BEEN PRETTY SURE.

YEAH, THAT WAS BEFORE

TWO CHURCHES:

CONVINCED ME OTHERWISE.

JUST BECAUSE THINGS AREN' ALL SUNNY AND ROSY RIGHT NOW

DOES NOT MEAN YOU GIVE UP

ON GOD'S CALLING FOR YOUR LIFE,

OR YOUR DREAMS.

I JUST...

I DON'T KNOW.

"TRUST IN THE LORD

WITH ALL YOUR HEART...

"AND LEAN NOT INTO

THINE OWN UNDERSTANDING.

"AND IN ALL YOUR WAYS,

ACKNOWLEDGE HIM,

AND HE WILL:

MAKE YOUR PATH STRAIGHT."

I AM FEELING:

RATHER CROOKED LATELY.

TOLD DAVID YET?

NOT YET.

WELL...

I KNOW HE BELIEVES IN YOU,

AND YOU KNOW:

I BELIEVE IN YOU...

BUT YOU HAVE TO:

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

YEAH.

[CHURCH BELL TOLLING]

CASEY?

CASEY!

WHAT IS IT?

YOU HAVE:

AN EMERGENCY PHONE CALL!

WHO IS IT?

THE HOSPITAL.

[SARAH GASPS]

SARAH, IT'S OKAY,

IT'S OKAY.

SHE'S A TOUGH ONE

TO KEEP UNDER.

IS SHE GOING TO BE OKAY?

IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD.

WE'RE WAITING FOR RESULTS

FROM THE M.R.I.

SHE'S HAVING T.I.A.S,

OR MINI-STROKES,

AND HER HIP MAY BE BROKEN

FROM HER FALL.

[MONITOR BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]

SHE'S GOING TO BE

OUT FOR A WHILE.

[]

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD.

I SHALL NOT WANT.

HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN

IN GREEN PASTURES.

HE LEADS ME BESIDE STILL WATERS

AND RESTORES MY SOUL.

[]

I ALWAYS THOUGHT OF RONNIE

AS A BIG SISTER:

WITH ALL THE ANSWERS,

BUT I NEED YOU TO TELL ME

WHAT TO DO.

SHE ASKED ME:

THE SCARIEST QUESTION

A MINISTER COULD ASK ANOTHER...

SHE SAID:

IF WE'RE WRONG ABOU SOMETHING AS SACRED

AS BEING CALLED:

TO THE MINISTRY...

HOW CAN WE BE CERTAIN

ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE?

SARAH?

I REALLY NEED YOU RIGHT NOW.

[]

[]

SHE'S GONE.

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

INTO YOUR HANDS, O LORD,

WE COMMI OUR SISTER, SARAH.

ASHES TO ASHES,

DUST TO DUST,

IN SURE AND CERTAIN HOPE

OF THE RESURRECTION

OF OUR LORD, JESUS CHRIST.

ARE THEY GOING TO

TAKE HER AWAY IN THIS?

PROBABLY.

SHE WOULD HATE THAT.

CAN WE PUT A PRETTY ROBE

ON HER?

OF COURSE.
