Das führt dazu, dass Sie Ihre Hände ruhen und Sie sogar aufhören, zu Gott zu beten; und das führt auch dazu, dass Sie Ihre Augen schließen und aufhören, das Wort Gottes zu lesen und sich für Gott einzusetzen. Der Song am Ende der Predigt "Don’t wake me up Ukraine", gesungen von Chey, gibt dem Zuhörer Zeit, über die Botschaft von Pastor Philip nachzudenken.
