| 0:00.0 | The woke right. What is that? What's your opinion of it? |
| 0:03.0 | What we have in the woke right are people who are against the evils of the left. |
| 0:07.9 | They're not for the principles that formed Christendom. |
| 0:13.1 | And so you see this with, for example, with regard to Israel and this insurgent anti-Semitism. |
| 0:17.9 | You see this with regard to Ukraine. |
| 0:20.5 | Russia's steelman argument is that |

| 1:09.3 | kingdom of God and all of nature. |
| 1:11.8 | All these things that we see are the birth pangs that are reminding us that this world is |
| 1:17.8 | beautiful, but not nearly as beautiful as the one he has prepared for us. |
| 1:23.7 | So I try to see everything in that perspective, that our true home, the true world that we were born for is not the world that we see and hear and smell. |
| 1:33.3 | But it certainly seems like the wheels are falling off this present world when you look at the wars in the Middle East, the war in Ukraine, you look at our own internal problems here in the United States, |
