Steve: G-Force? More like G-fat.

Steve: The only french word you know is buffet.
Zach: That's not true, I know croissant.

Steve: I heard your last name used to be longer but you ate all the other letters of the alphabet.

Steve: Zach you look like a homeless guy who's been to a soup kitchen that specializes in ice cream soup..

Zach.....starts crying :)

Zach: Is Carell not your last name?
Steve: Not originally.
Zach: What is it? Like Pinocchio?

Zach: Like when you go to the beach and someone yells, "Shark shark" and then realize that it's just you doing the back stroke?

Steve: When you go to the beach and you swim out past the buoys, do people think there's an island there?
Zach: I'm not that fat man.

Here is there logo as it stands right now.

Here are my interpretations:

       

I think more to the point, people need to hear and know that you "love" them.

Recently we had David Gallagher at New Hope and he told a story of a time when he was hiking with some friends in the Rift Valley and they came on a farmer named Paul.

Paul decided to hook up with them and guide them to a water fall and because he spoke English it was an excellent fit for the hikers. David tells the story as, "All of the sudden i heared God tell me to give Paul my shoes. You know how I knew it was God telling me to do that? Because if a thought comes into your head and it will cost you something, or to give something up, and it will benefit someone else, that's God!"

So he gave Paul his shoes and with Paul's approval wore Paul's old tattered worn out shoes.
Paul then asked them to come to his house and tell them about this god. The abandoned their hiking trip and went to Paul's house and shared about Christ and that night Paul and his wife became believers.

There was a lady in the house that was part of another organization and the Open Arms team gave her a ride back to her village. During the ride she told David that her org has been coming to that village for 3 years and to her knowledge Paul and his wife are the first people in that village to accept Christ. She then told David why they had accepted Jesus. She said, "Do you know why Paul accepted Christ? It wasn't you giving him your shoes that changed his life, it was him seeing you put on his shoes and walk in his shoes that really changed him."

You can watch the message here. At around 26 min into it is the Shoes Story.

Maybe, just maybe it is better to show/tell that you "love" them.
