Hope you're doing well. It's clear to me that I've got a lot of new followers who don't know who I am or how I operate. And the first videos you guys saw of me was very intense. It made you think, "Is David okay? Is there something wrong with him? He's so crazy, so intense. Like, what's going on?" So, I figured I would introduce myself so that you know. My name is David Koresh. I've been preaching for almost 9 years, worship leading full-time for over 10. I've been I've talked people out of suicide, murder, depression, a bunch of other stuff like that. More times than I can count. I probably have over 10,000 hours of live speaking experience, which doesn't include all of the experience of talking to people privately, helping them through things. Uh from when I was 11 to when I was 21, I have a I had a sister who went in and out of mental health hospitals. And now she's married with with a few kids, so I'm very happy about that. Talked her out of suicide, stopped her after she tried, stopped her when she was trying to, all these different things. And so, conflict and intensity are normal to me. You know, I preach and sing at a nursing home six times a month. I I preach every other Wednesday at my church and full-time worship leader there. I make sure I try to make sure everything works and things like that. And all of this to me, and the way my brain works, intensity and uh conflict energize me. When it comes to things like like social interaction actually makes me want more social interaction. All of this different stuff. I have to stop myself from doing this project so that I don't stay up all night. Uh very good in emergency mode. I just can't quite turn it off, I suppose. So, I hope this gave you some things. Cuz like anybody that watches my content knows I get very intense. Me crying on camera, getting very intense, using very intense imagery is not uh is not weird. It's normal. And it doesn't And it's not that I'm somehow I'm not okay. What happened was is that I had dry eye in that video. I had just been 5 and 1/2 hours straight uh going through the rest of chapter 8 of Bergen's book. And I did it basically without stopping. And and just imagine doing a voice recording, analyzing for 5 and 1/2 hours straight with a basically without stopping and what they would do to you. I had went up I woke up at 7:30 p.m. that day after getting 14 hours of sleep. And I had stayed up and it was from 2:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. that I actually did the voice message. And it was a lot. And so I'm an intense guy, yeah. But like, you know, you get a lady that doesn't have legs asking you to pray with her when she and she just needs faith because she doesn't know if she can keep on going or have someone tell you they only got a few minutes left to live a few times and you see what happens. And you see what that does to you. You know, when I speak, people's souls hang in the balance. I'm going to be held accountable for everything I say. And the way that I speak is on purpose. I pressed record after doing that. It was all intense because I knew that that intensity and that pure, I guess, adrenaline and probably cortisol and all these different things, I can't just replicate And the whole premise of my podcast is what do you mean by it's going underneath the surface. So when I said I'm going to nuke these liars back worlds back to hell where they belong, was I saying that they're that they're all liars or they're going to go to hell or anything like that? No. Because my speech is very layered. That's why I made these videos saying I'm not calling anybody liars. I'm saying lies are lies and all these different things. When my my If you want to like you can look 6 months back or I think it was 7 months back where uh where [snorts] I did an episode after after one of my listeners' father died and I I felt it touched me so much going to the funeral that I I did an episode titled, "If this were my last episode before I would die, here's what it would be." I put no notes in front of me. I just talked. And it was like almost an hour and a half long. So intensity and these different things, while I acknowledge this outside of the norm, it's not new for me. Crying on camera is normal. I actually I'm different, I'm sure, but that's just how I uh how my brain operates. Now, you guys can know more about me. Of course, you can't know everything, but you can know that when that literally I ask what someone means by what they say and learn more about them instead of disagreeing with them is the whole thesis of the podcast. And that's more about me, how I operate, so that you guys could know I'm okay. Uh I got the dry eye stuff and I'm fine now. You can see it's a lot It's way better and I'm fine. I was crying because but like I cry almost every day. I'm very very very analytical and very emotional. You know, I see a video of a father coming home from the army and I'll cry. It's just the way my mind works. Anyway, I love you guys. I hope this gives more context to who I am and how I operate. I got to go and I'm going to make a video on Matthew 18 in just a moment here. Love you guys.
