他录制了一条消息，要在他的死后播放。他没有告诉过Teela，他的购物同伴和医疗保健工作者，他们将录音带交给了他的家人。很简短。但是在其中，Reb回答了他一生中最有人提出的两个问题。一个是他是否相信上帝。他说他做到了。另一个是死后是否有生命。他在这上说：“我的回答也是，是的，有些东西。但是朋友，对不起。现在我知道，我什至无法告诉你。”整个地方笑了起来。
(He had recorded a message to be played upon his death. He had told no one-except Teela, his shopping companion and health care worker, who delivered the tape to his family. It was brief. But in it, the Reb answered the two questions he had most been asked in his life of faith. One was whether he believed in God. He said he did. The other was whether there is life after death. On this he said, "My answer here, too, is yes, there is something. But friends, I'm sorry. Now that I know, I can't even tell you." The whole place broke up laughing.)
在米奇·阿尔伯（Mitch Albom）的“有点信仰”中，当角色在死后记录最终信息时，就会发生一个重要的时刻。他只与帮助他的Teela分享此录像带，以确保他的家人收到。在这个简短的信息中，他谈到了关于他的信仰的两个最紧迫的问题：他对上帝的信仰和死后生命的存在。他肯定地回答了这两者，但特别是表达了他无法传达来世的现实。
认真主题与幽默的并置是显而易见的，因为观众嘲笑了Reb的启示，即尽管他已经了解了超越的知识，但他无法分享。这一刻强调了信仰的奥秘以及人类对死后生命的理解的局限性，在面对深刻问题的情况下展示了Reb的信念和人类经验的轻盈。
