  Grant Taylor : What does it say?

  J.T. Hawkins Jr. : It says, "Grant Taylor, the impact you've made on our school means more to us than you'll ever know. The Lord has used you to meet a need in our lives. Now we want to meet a need in yours. You'll find the title of this new truck in your name. Please accept it as our way of saying thank you."

  Neal Prater : [hiding in the distance, observing and smiling]  Not a word.

  Matt Prater : Yes, sir.

• Grant Taylor : Scripture says to honor your parents, and all you do is complain.

  Matt Prater : All he does is boss me around. He doesn't even try to understand me.

  Grant Taylor : Matt, you can't judge your father by his actions and then judge yourself by your intentions. It doesn't work that way. You're not responsible for him. You're responsible for you. You honor God by honoring your authority.
