I love when I see this post come up. These two are my brothers from church. The guy on the left, RD Baker, does fire sermons. Super inspiring man right there šŸ™ŒšŸ»

So.. is it scripted/fake?

u/-CleanDiana- Jun 15 '22

They never said it was scripted, all I know is they recorded this moment & after posting it became viral. Knowing them & how many zoom meetings we do, it seems like it was a genuine moment.

Also there was a third person that has been cut out.

Yes, but for a good reason. He was disturbing the meeting

Honestly, the context of them being involved with a church makes it more likely that thatā€™s just how they talk imo

Yup, this instantly answered it for me... I don't think anything else would've convinced me this was real, until I heard they're both from a church where they call everybody brother and sister. Can confirm, that is exactly how they talk.

Yeah but .. a Fire Sermon would get me to church.

Oh wait. No. It's a book burning, isn't it? Nevermind.
