[Steve Myers] There's a special word that appears throughout the Bible.
In the Old Testament, the word is spelled bahar and it means to choose.
Think about that for a moment.
Many times throughout the Bible it focuses on choosing.
Right at the very beginning, Adam chose wrong and ate the fruit.
God chose Abraham.
God chose Moses.
Moses chose to leave Egypt.
And this concept of choosing comes up over, and over, and over again, not just Old Testament,
but throughout the New Testament as well.
In fact, didn't God choose Israel as His very own people?
No doubt He did.
And it's at that time when God is giving instructions to Israel, as they're going to go into the
Promised Land, He focuses on this concept of choosing.
And notice what He says.
We'll take a look at Deuteronomy.
Look at Deuteronomy 30, and we're gonna start in verse 19.
And here's what God says through Moses.
He says, "I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you that I have set before you
life and death, blessing and cursing.
Therefore choose life that both you and your descendants may live."
(Deuteronomy 30:19)
And so you see, God has put the opportunity for every one of us to choose.
And the interesting part about this is not just the fact of okay, I've got to make a
decision, but it's more than just choosing life in the sense of okay, I'm not going to
choose death and so I'll choose life.
There's more to what God is talking about here.
Making a choice in this sense is not just opposing death, but He says make it a meaningful
life.
Choose life.
And so Godly choices bring meaning into our life.
And that theme runs throughout the Bible.
So yes, we avoid evil, but we also then have to do good.
And when you read through the Bible over, and over, and over again that theme comes
forth.
Israel throughout their existence was not just to avoid evil, but they were to choose
good.
In fact, there's a wonderful passage that's found in Proverbs 3.
Let's take a look at this for just a moment.
In Proverbs 3, let's take a look at verse 5.
It exemplifies this point of choosing life.
Not just avoiding death, but choosing what's good.
Notice what Proverbs 3:5 says.
It says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
Lean not to your own understanding."
Okay, so that implies this choosing life aspect.
But then it goes on and it says, "In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He shall direct
your paths."
And so now, we have the other side of the coin, not just avoiding evil, but choosing
what's good.
And so when we make that choice, then God's going to bless it.
And He will work with us, and in us, and through our lives, so that His will can be accomplished.
So when you're faced with a choice, perhaps keep these passages in mind that we not just
avoid evil, not just avoid death, but that we make that conscious effort to choose life,
we choose to do what's good.
And by doing that, we're beginning to fulfill God's will in our life.

- [Narrator] These are their stories.
(lively electronic music)
- My name is Joe.
I'm 26 years old, and I'm a videographer.
- Hi, I'm Mariel Harding,
and I'm a graphic designer.
- My name is Katelyn Kemble, and I'm a photographer.
(camera clicks)
(baby cries)
- Today's Monday.
By Friday, we have to be done with this,
so you have five days.
- How I interpret the brand's aesthetic right now,
it's very minimalistic.
There's a lot of negative space.
- What it feels like when I'm being creative,
it's probably the biggest rush of emotion,
of confidence, of nerves.
- I feel kinda shaky when I have a really,
really, really good idea.
- It sort of feels like a dream,
like weaving in and out.
- This almost unconfidence of,
am I even supposed to be doing this?
And this confidence of, I was made to do this.
- It's been two days.
Right now, I'm about to go get
sort of a progress update,
and see where they are in the process.
This is great.
I love where this is coming from.
This is where it starts to fall apart.
I like the intent behind it.
The execution, I don't like.
- [Man] It's way bigger than that.
- It's hard for me, 'cause I don't know what else you have.
I'd love to see some more,
like, let me catch my breath, show me a big shot.
It doesn't communicate that sort of soul to me.
Beyond that, it feels dark.
It needs a greater sense of ownership.
Texture.
Yeah, and if I had to leave you with one piece of feedback,
it'd be, keep going.
- Yeah, so, cool.
- Gotta write those notes down.
- Sort of feels like I'm back
to the drawing board with certain things.
- It's gonna be interesting figuring out,
do I need to start from scratch?
Do I trash this?

- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
To have your own point of view is everything.
I would always present what you would think.
- Max, what are your--
Max is my favorite editor in the whole world.
Max, what are your thoughts here?
- When you talk about those things, I want to see them.
I want to see that this is a place
where I can pick up a camera if I don't own one.
(man laughs)
You've got all the clips, and you've got the VO.
I want to understand what 368 is.
- I don't like to feel pushed or pressed.
- You gotta be very literal.
- But what I'm learning is that,
in these experiences, you kinda are pressed a lot more.
- Hey, come on in.
You must be Shantell.
I'm Mariel.
- Nice to meet you.
- I just, I really struggle with working fast enough.
- Time is our biggest enemy.
The more time you have, the more time you have
to overthink things, the more time you have to doubt,
the more time you have to be insecure.
When you take time out of the equation,
you only have time to be yourself.

- I'm feeling tired, but I'm feeling good.
I've got my idea.
I did a lot of work on the computer yesterday,
and now, I'm just printing it out,
and putting it up, and getting ready for presentation.
- I'll feel more confident
once my light installation is done.
- I'm a little nervous 'cause I changed some stuff
to make it better, so we'll see if it is better.
(soft electronic music)
Today's the day.
(train screeches)
Whew, so we'll see.
We'll see how it goes.
- Okay, it's been five days.
You guys have been busting your asses.
Super excited to see this.
- This video is called What Will You Create.
You can dim the lights.
(intense music)
- What we create doesn't stay here.
It's way bigger than that.
We all create excuses.
You know what I'm talking about.
I don't have the money.
Where do I even start?
For creators--
- There's almost a euphoria, or a spiritual journey
that I'm on every time that I make a project.
The creator of the universe is creating through me.
- What will you create?
368.
- I make images because I wish
those were the things that I saw in my life.
Because I don't, I create them.

(people clap)
- The thing that's most important I learned
was not to overcomplicate it.
Just start working, and something will come.
Trust the process.

Vagina Questions We've All Googled | Lady Confessions | HelloGiggles - Duration: 1:45.
- So I Googled it and of course when you Google something
it tells you that you're gonna die.
(upbeat melody)
I Googled the symptoms for vaginosis.
It doesn't even mean that there's anything
necessarily wrong with you.
It's just an over-influx of bacteria,
good bacteria, bad bacteria.
I couldn't tell anyone,
"Oh, my vagina stinks and there's this discharge
coming down."
You know what I mean?
That's embarrassing.
- Health classes don't really talk about discharge.
No one tells you that it's gonna end up in your underwear,
you're not quite sure what it is,
why does it smell like this?
Is it supposed to smell like this?
Are there chunks in it?
Is it curdling?
We don't know.
- I am on the pill but I'm terrible at timing.
So I don't even know it's gonna be quite as effective
and I didn't know whether I should take
the morning after pill.
Should I rather be safe than sorry?
And I had nowhere to turn and no one to ask
'cause even if you ask an internet,
should I take the morning after pill
if this is my exact scenario?
- Should vaginas be like swampy or kind of,
after a long day or should I go get checked for something?
How do I know?
- Why is one boob always bigger than the other one?
Is that universal for all women?
Also, why don't we have bras that match that?
- Are you supposed to go get waxed on your period?
So, I actually Googled it.
It actually said yeah, just wear a tampon
but it's gonna hurt more.
(cat meowing)
- Everyone watches porn, right?
So you think a vagina should look like the girls
in the porn videos but sometimes
people get incisions and stuff.
- Is everyone's down there look the same as mine?
- I guess mine's kind of like fatter
so I always wonder is this unnatural if it's fatter?
Am I a hermaphrodite?
I used to go under things like that.
- [Woman] So when you look, is it supposed to look like-
