Birth Show Nation. What the deal is, players? It's Your man, the Reverend Father Crunk, the 35th member of the Wu Tang Clan coming at all. You all live from the Shrine of Q100 on the north side of ATL Atlanta. This morning we're going to talk about falling down and getting back up. Britney Spears hit rock bottom and is now back with a new album and is on tour playing the sold out crowds. Michael Jackson has just announced that he is making a comeback. Whitney Houston is working on the long awaited album. Mariah Carey made a huge comeback. And on a much more smaller level, Melissa Rycroft, the girl that was recently dumped by ABC's the Bachelor, hasn't let getting dumped get her down because she is now back with Dancing with the Stars. Like all these folks, we have all experienced times in which we all have made bad decisions, been in bad relationships and just done dumb things. But for so many people in the entertainment world, a mistake could be the signal for the end of a career. When you fall down, then all of your haters love to gather around you and say, I told you so. You can't make it. You's a loser. This reminds me of someone very special and who is very important to so many of us around the world. And the same thing happened to him. In just two weeks, the world will observe Holy Week. And it's during this time that we all remember what happened to the Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. If anyone had haters in their life, just peep Jesus out. He came into Jerusalem like Jigger and Diddy and as they were coming to a club, Jesus made it rain. He made it rain palm branches, but still he made it rain. And while all that happened on Palm Sunday, he was put to death on Good Friday. And while on the cross people made fun of him, poked jokes at him, made him look like a real loser. However, that was not the end because like Brittany, Jesus made them all say, oops, he did it again. He was raised up from the dead on Easter Sunday and he gave all of us a remedy for all the haters in our lives. Just hang on and hold on and you'll come through. Brittany, Mariah, Michael have been the butt of so many jokes and parodies on the Internet that you can begin a library. However, what we're seeing before our eyes for all of them is that they're saying, suckers, how you like me now? Well, we all have these moments in our lives when we took a picture that we shouldn't have. We all have been in places where the next day people totally tripped out on our behavior the night before. And we all have made less than perfect decisions at one point or another. But look at who you are now. In high school, you are a zero. But when you graduate and moved on to bigger and better things, you became somebody's hero. Now I can give you all an example about me I am probably the only person in the history of the state of Georgia who flunked driver's ed because I wrecked the car in class. I put my foot on the gas of that 1990 Toyota Corolla and help anyone who was in my way. On the Driver's Air Range, I hit a truck, I hit two cars and nearly ran into the control tower for the Driver's air range of DeKalb County. I hit a fence, I hit two trees and I towed the car. Now for the next for the next year of my sophomore year at Shamrock high school in DeKalb County, I had to take remedial that's right, Atlanta Remedial Driver's head. And believe me, you can't be a player when the old man picks you up in a old 1988 Chevrolet Malibu with a dashboard as wide as the length of a cruise ship. Well, I finally passed driver's day in that big old mothership of a car and I got my player card back. Now I'm rolling in the Tahoe with some fresh shoes on the front and the back. Yeah, people, that's right. They laughed at me. People made fun of me. And I did not have a date for anything at all in my entire year as a 10th grader for because no girls, mama and daddy were stupid enough to have me drive their daughter to get gas. But I had to get up, get out and learn from my mistakes. We all have stories. Not like mine, but we all have stories when we have moments where we fell down but with God's help we were able to get back up again. These times are not meant to break us down, but if we are wise and faithful, they can be a testimony to help us get back up. So if you are going through something right now and you have family, peers, co workers and everyone calling you a failure, hang in there and see that just in a short period of time episode would turn into a triumph. And you can say like Jesus, like Whitney, like Michael, like Mariah, like Brittany. Look at me haters. Oops, I did it again. Now hang on in there Birth Show Nation and know that if this Once no driving 10th grader can do it, just chill out in the cut and see what God can do for you. Let me say what up to all my people. So my main man Hip Hop and Murdoch Elementary High elementary School. His teachers are Ms. Greenwall and Ms. Moore.

And I'm doing their wedding in Holy Spirit. So God's blessings upon you, Scott and Jesse and I holler at you all on Saturday. Bird Show Nation. I'm out. Haters be converted and become motivators. I'll holler at y' all later. Peace. This is the Birch Show.
