Short spoken reflection delivered by Scott Empringham (uploader) recounting a friend’s father’s funeral. The speaker says people praised the deceased as a "man of God," a good husband, and a good father, and adds a fourth aspiration—helping others—then reflects that he tries but fails at being a man of God, wants to be a good husband and father, and would be satisfied living by those goals.

Chapters

I was just at a funeral, and it was a good friend of mine's dad. And he had a bunch of people come up and they said four things. One, they said he was a man of God. I'm not. I try to be, and I fail every day. That'd be nice. Got a long way to go. Yeah. A good husband. Okay. I want to be a good husband. Take care of my family, protect them, provide for them. Be a good father. And if I can do those things and along the way, I could help somebody else and make their lives better. I think I'll take it. That'll be good.
