[reading Colton Burpo's tweets]

David Gobble:
"God has a fire sword."

Brad Jones:
Did he just go see Noah? Has a sword of fire! Sweet!

David Gobble:
"Because of what I have seen, I am always ready to die."

Brad Jones:
Uh, so is, I, uh... I'm with Sarah. This kid's gonna murder us all!

David Gobble:
"I am just a normal kid. I love football and Minecraft, and I have met Christ."

Brad Jones:
[snorts] Okay.

David Gobble:
"God will claim all his children."

Brad Jones:
Man, again! You say that in John Malkovich's voice... goddamnit! This reads like a parody account, but it's not!

David Gobble:
"As he must come for all of us, heaven babies are forever babies."

Brad Jones:
That's horrifying! I don't think Heaven is like being stuck on, like, the worst airline ever!

David Gobble:
"I will make them believe."

Brad Jones:
What does that mean? Goddamnit, what does that mean?

David Gobble:
"I am not afraid of what I am becoming."

Brad Jones:
Don't give this kid guns. Please.

David Gobble:
"You have no concept of what seeing God does to a human mind."

Brad Jones:
I'm starting to see what it does to a human mind!

David Gobble:
One day ago, he tweeted, "I know how the world ends!"

Brad Jones:
Well, why don't you tell us! That should be the first thing that you say! You know, this story's getting a lot more elaborate every time he says it! I would've lead with "I know how the world ends." If you know how the world ends, who don't you tell us?

David Gobble:
"Even in heaven, the wounds of Jesus bleed. They forever bleed."

Brad Jones:
So Heaven is for real; they just don't have any band-aids.

David Gobble:
"Mom says I came back different." This is amazing!

Brad Jones:
[breaks out into laughter]
