daughter Faith is going to be going through with him 49 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,000 We couldn't let her go by herself 50 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000 Because she can't rent a car without it being outrageous 51 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,000 Because she's underage 52 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,000 Exactly, so we're going to be 53 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,000 So darn we have to go 54 00:01:56,000

00:02:23,000 And we saw one person and said we're not really here 73 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000 You don't see us 74 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,000 We're just going straight to our office to do a podcast 75 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,000 It was hilarious 76 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,000 Yeah, it is 77 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,000 We had some major, major rain today 78 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000 And we came up on 79 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,000 Okay, we were driving 80 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,000 We live what 16 miles out? 81 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,000 Yes 82 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000 We live 16 miles out 83 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,000 We're driving in 84 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000 And we came up on a two-rex 85 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,000 Yeah, one 86 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,000 One happened probably seconds before I drove up on it 87 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,000 And this guy in a Lexus SUV, a small one 88 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,000 He rolled it 89 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000 Fortunately, other people had already stopped 90 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,000 And were helping rendering aid 91 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000 So I didn't feel like I needed to stop 92 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,000 But no, cops can come because they're all 93 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,000 They're all 94 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,000 The other wrecks 95 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,000 So yeah, so a few miles down the road 96 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000 We come up on another bad wreck 97 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,000 It was bad 98 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000 The one, this guy was out of the car 99 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,000 He seemed to be fine 100 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,000 He was walking 101 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,000 The one that was rolled 102 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,000 Yeah, he was walking 103 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,000 But the other one, we don't know 104 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000 We don't know 105 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,000 We heard it was a van 106 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000 It was badly 107 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,000 Demolished 108 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,000 Badly demolished 109 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,000 And in a truck 110 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,000 Badly demolished 111 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000 Yeah, so anyway, just heart went out to that 112 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,000 But boy, that'll put you on edge 113 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,000 And it did put us on edge 114 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000 But the thing is, is every time it rains 115 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,000 And you're traveling on the 87 116 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Which is the road that comes out of our neighborhood 117 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000 To get to anywhere 118 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,000 You know, Fredericksburg, San Antonio, Burnie 119 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000 There's always wrecks 120 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Always wrecks on that road 121 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,000 Tina's like, I wish y'all didn't live out there anymore 122 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,000 Please move 123 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000 But you know, if we take the back roads 124 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,000 Which we ended up turning around and taking a back road 125 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000 I think we just should, when it rains 126 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000 Just automatically take the back road in 127 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,000 It's just too dangerous 128 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000 And it's no traffic and whatnot 129 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,000 So anyway 130 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,000 So we got here a little unnerved 131 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,000 Yeah, we were a little on edge 132 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000 I mean, I almost said, let's just go back home 133 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,000 But you did 134 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000 You stopped and I said, no, we're doing this 135 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,000 No, no, we're gonna do it 136 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000 So we're glad to be with you 137 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000 And sorry we missed last week 138 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000 It's just, we're in the very busy travel season 139 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,000 We've got more trips coming up 140 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,000 We got this one this week 141 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,000 Three more 142 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,000 And then we've got 143 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 We're doing the K-Love Awards show 144 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000 On the 25th, 26th 145 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000 Yeah, that's gonna be great 146 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,000 It's gonna be exciting 147 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,000 But we'll be out then 148 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,000 In fact, Adam, the Podfather Curry 149 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,000 Is actually not podcasting that week 150 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,000 And going with us 151 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,000 This is, okay 152 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000 Miracles still happen 153 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000 They still happen 154 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000 God is still on the throne 155 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,000 You're so funny 156 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000 Parting the Red Sea 157 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,000 Yes 158 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000 That's a big deal for him to take a step back 159 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,000 From his show 160 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,000 It's a big deal 161 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000 But this is important 162 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000 And I think this is good for him 163 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000 Based on what he's doing in the industry 164 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,000 The music industry 165 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,000 And what he's trying to provide for them 166 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,000 And getting to see this K-Love Awards 167 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000 And all the Christian artists 168 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000 That he could be helping along the way 169 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,000 I think it's just gonna be 170 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Really good information for him 171 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000 I do too 172 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000 I think it's educational for him 173 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,000 We'll have a little meetup 174 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,000 While we're there with a handful of people 175 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Yes 176 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000 Which will be cool 177 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Seeing people who are fans of No Agenda 178 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,000 And Currie and the Keeper 179 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000 And hopefully 180 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000 Living up in a down world 181 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,000 And us 182

want you to be encouraged 186 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Because you have been brutal on us 187 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000 Because Mr. Chevy has not been on the show 188 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000 Well, he's here now 189 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,000 So he's here now 190 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,000 And it was easy 191 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,000 I think bringing him 192 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000 It's like, oh wait, we can do this 193 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000 Because all he wants to do is just sit in our lap 194 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,000 I know 195 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000 And we can work 196 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000 He's in your chair right now 197 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,000 So yeah, we're good to go 198 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,000 Okay, so then we have one more trip 199 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,000 Where we're going 200 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Is that the Colorado trip? 201 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,000 The Colorado trip 202 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000 We were blessed with a 203 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,000 A week 204 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000 A week at a timeshare in close to Vail 205 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000 I keep saying Aspen 206 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,000 But it's close to Vail 207 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000 It's about 15 minutes from Vail, Colorado 208 00:05:56,000

be fine 212 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000 To either record the podcast earlier 213 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000 And have it ready 214 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,000 Or bring our equipment 215 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000 I'll think about that 216 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000 Because we're TSA approved 217 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000 So we don't have to 218 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000 That's true 219 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000 That makes it a lot easier 220 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,000 To get through 221 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,000 So anyway, we might do that 222 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000 Because we might have some things to say 223 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,000 While we're there 224 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000 Yeah, that's true 225 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,000 Because what are we going to do for a week? 226 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,000 I mean really 227 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000 I can bring the small mic stands 228 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000 Okay,

I mean I think it's going to be great 233 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,000 Because I've never been to this part of Colorado 234 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,000 Yeah 235 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,000 So I'm excited to see the beauty 236 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000 And I heard there could actually still be snow 237 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000 And I'm like, really? 238 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,000 Wow

already 243 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,000 And you know I've said this 244 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,000 On the podcast before 245 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,000 I don't go to Colorado and not see snow 246 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,000 So all right, Lord 247 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,000 You're listening to me 248 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,000 I need some snow 249 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,000 I

253 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,000 Which is typical 254 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,000 And we're moving into a cooling cycle 255 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000 All the climate activists are going to lose their mind 256 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,000 Because the temps are going to drop 257 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000 That's a joke anyway 258 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,000 So they're going to be freaking out 259 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000 It's a scam 260 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000 It's a scam 261 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,000 It's a total global scam 262 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,000

only way you'll listen to me 277 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,000 I'm like 278 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,000 But you're three hours 279 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000 It is long 280 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,000 It is long 281 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000 But it's awesome 282 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,000 It's so full of information 283 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,000 I'm going to ask him 284 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,000 This is what I'm going to ask him to do 285 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,000 I want you to stay at the church 286 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,000 All pre-services and listen

can't do it 291 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000 Because he has a show 292 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Yeah, because of no agenda 293 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000 So, yeah 294 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,000 By the way, y'all should check out 295 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,000 No Agenda 296 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,000 That is total media deconstruction 297 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,000 Which they need to be deconstructed 298 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,000 On an ongoing basis 299 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,000 And there's so much low-hanging fruit 300 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,000 Because the world is losing its mind right now 301 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,000 So really three and a half hours 302 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,000 Isn't a stretch for those guys 303 00:07:58,000 -->

00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000 And just totally off on all of their reporting 308 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,000 There would be no reason for no agenda 309 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,000 So no agenda is happening 310 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Because the media is corrupt 311 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000 They just have to turn to 312 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Currying the Keeper 313

--> 00:16:37,000 In education 636 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,000 And taking out everything 637 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,000 That we grew up in history knowing 638 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,000 So the kids of today don't know anything 639 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,000 Oh, yeah 640 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,000 And so they only know what they're being taught 641 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,000 Literally editing history 642 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,000 Editing history so that the founding fathers 643 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,000 Who were Christians and pastors 644 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,000 And deacons and elders in their churches 645 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,000 Are being edited out 646 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,000 Their statements, their quotes 647 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,000 Are being withheld and dumbed down 648 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,000 So that the next generation doesn't even know 649 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,000 We were founded on biblical principles 650 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,000 Unless their parents are teaching them 651 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,000 And the sad thing is their parents don't know either 652 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,000 They don't know 653 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,000 So we've got to get back to our original documents 654 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,000 This generation 655 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,000 Yeah 656 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,000 Earlier generations 657 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,000 But I wouldn't know to teach my daughter that 658 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,000 I would think that the school's teaching her 659 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,000 I had, and this is what happened 660 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,000 COVID happened 661 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000 And then school was having to be 662 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,000 Taught 663 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,000 Online 664 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:29,000 At home 665 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,000 Parents having to supervise 666 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,000 Parents are seeing 667 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Because they're at home because they can't go to work 668 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,000 Because of what the government did with this pandemic 669 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,000 And so they're sitting there with their children 670 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,000 They're having to 671 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,000 The children's asking questions 672 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000 Because they don't know how to 673 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,000 You know 674 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,000 Or mom's looking over Junior's 675 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,000 Shoulder 676 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,000 And seeing this going what? 677 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,000 Yeah 678 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,000 And now 679 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,000 It was a wake up call 680 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,000 People are waking up 681 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,000 But not enough people 682 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,000 Not enough and it's too slow 683 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000 And so if you're listening to this podcast 684 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,000 We need you to join 685 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,000 Jump in 686

00:18:41,000 Their history teachers who are faking it 709 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,000 And teaching lies and propaganda 710 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000 And they're equipped to deal with that 711 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,000 So they teach them and ground them 712 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,000 In the Word of God 713 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,000 And in our original documents 714 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,000 And so it's an amazing organization 715 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,000 They have great 716 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,000 And Rick has a great podcast 717 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,000 Called The Tavern 718 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,000 We're actually taking a course 719 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,000 Adding another thing to our plate 720 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,000 Tonight at 7 o'clock 721 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,000 We start our first class 722 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Biblical Citizenship 723 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,000 With Kurt Cameron 724 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,000 Yes, Kurt Cameron will be the speaker tonight 725 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,000 So that's going to be great 726 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,000 And then we're going to host it here 727 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,000 In our church as well 728 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000 So anyway, that's another one 729 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,000 Another one is wall builders 730 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,000 Just look up wall builders 731 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,000 David and Tim Barton 732 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,000 Those guys have miles of information 733 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000 It's unbelievable how much volumes of information 734 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,000 But we just need to get back to our basic stuff 735 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,000 Read the Declaration of Independence 736 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,000 Just read that 737 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000 Read the Bill of Rights 738 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,000 Check it out 739 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,000 And I'm re-educating myself 740 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,000 So much of this I had in school 741 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,000 In high school and in Poli Sci 742 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000 As an Academy of Freedom student 743 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,000 At Howard Payne University 744 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,000 And a Bible major 745 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,000 So I did both Poli Sci and Bible 746 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,000 And I'm re-acquainting myself 747 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,000 With our original documents 748 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000 Okay, I'm going to land the plane 749 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000 Because I could really keep going on this 750 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,000 You sure could 751 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,000 But part of the reason is we spent last week where? 752 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:08,000 We spent our last week in Milwaukee, Wisconsin 753 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:15,000 For four days of a fire hose just being poured out on us 754 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,000 With this information of what's happening 755 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,000 In the government right now 756 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,000 What's happening in America 757 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,000 And helping us understand our constitutional rights 758 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,000 What is actually said and what is actually being done 759 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,000 Which is going against everything that laws were made for 760 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,000 A literal Marxist agenda that's been happening for decades 761 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,000 This isn't anything new 762 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,000 But what's happening is coming to fruition now 763 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,000 It started many decades ago 764 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:51,000 And now it is culminated into just total chaos 765 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,000 Things like anti-Semitism, pro-Hamas 766 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000 Protests on over 200 schools 767 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,000 I say over 50 schools 768 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,000 But I think it's actually accelerated from there 769 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:09,000 And all this is fueled by organizations 770 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,000 That connect back to George Soros, Rockefeller, all these guys 771 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,000 Obama 772 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,000 And yeah, just say it 773 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,000 Let's just say it 774 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,000 All these go back to and tie into a full on 775 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,000 Declared Marxist agenda 776 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,000 Not just something 777 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,000 And nothing is hidden here 778 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000 This is all very much in the open 779 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,000 Sorry, I'm making noise 780 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,000 Antifa 781 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:35,000 All these organizations are actually supplying these kids with signs 782 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,000 And it's just unbelievable 783 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,000 And they don't even know what they're doing 784 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,000 They're just being told 785 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,000 They don't even know 786 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,000 You need to get in on this 787 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000 And they're going, okay, just give me a sign 788 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,000 And then a reporter asks them 789 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,000 What's this about? 790 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,000 And they're like, I don't know 791 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000 I don't know why I'm here 792 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,000 But boy, is this fun 793 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,000 Man, I'm telling you 794 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:56,000 What's happening too is finally people are beginning to crack down on these 795 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,000 And they're telling these kids, you're done 796 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000 Your education is useless now 797 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,000 Because you will not be hired 798 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,000 I'm very glad about that 799 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,000 You might go over to the east and get a job somewhere in Iran 800 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000 But you're not getting a job here 801 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,000 And I think it's good 802 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:18,000 They're actually going to crack down on these crack pots basically 803 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,000 They don't even know what they're doing 804 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:27,000 Freedom of speech isn't so that you can be belligerent and violent and hateful towards people 805 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,000 That's not the point of freedom of speech 806 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,000 No 807 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:37,000 If that freedom of speech is damaging and hurting and literally creating violence 808 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,000 And creating dissension and division 809 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,000 That has to stop 810 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,000 That's not what free speech is for 811 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,000 That's not the point of it 812 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,000 We've pushed the envelopes on these things 813 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,000 We've overinterpreted many of them 814 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:53,000 And gone way beyond the scope of what our founding fathers meant 815 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,000 Anyway, I'm glad some schools are reeling that back in 816 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,000 Some of them are just total sellouts anyway 817 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,000 They're just a part of the system 818 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,000 Moving right along 819 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,000 What else is going on? 820 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,000 We were in Milwaukee 821 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,000 By the way, beautiful city 822 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,000 I did not realize it 823 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000 There were some beautiful areas we were in 824 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,000 And the weather was rainy 825 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,000 It's rainy everywhere right now 826 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,000 Raining here 827 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,000 So Milwaukee last week, we'll be in Dallas, Fort Worth this week 828 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,000 Just for a few days 829 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,000 It'll be a real quick trip 830 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,000 And get to connect with some people that we love and care about 831 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,000 In our church world 832 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,000 And then we're back and then... 833 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,000 Then Colorado, like I said 834 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,000 That's it 835 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,000 No, Nashville 836 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,000 Nashville 837 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,000 Yeah 838 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Yeah, so anyway 839 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,000 So we had a really beautiful, beautiful Mother's Day yesterday 840 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000 Because this is Monday 841 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,000 And we had this brainstorm in our staff meeting about two weeks ago 842 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,000 That I wasn't included in 843 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,000 It's kind of a mutiny 844 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,000 You might call it a loving, a benevolent mutiny 845 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,000 You think so 846 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,000 If there is such a thing 847 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,000 Benevolent manipulation 848 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,000 It was a benevolent mutiny 849 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000 Where one of our staff said, 850 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,000 Pastor Annette 851 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,000 No 852 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,000 Dame Annette 853 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,000 First off, they asked, 854 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,000 Pastor Jimmy, what are you going to preach on this Sunday? 855 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Because we always talk about what you're going to preach on 856 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,000 And I think it was you that said 857 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,000 Was it you who said, 858 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,000 No, I think Annette should preach 859 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,000 That was some way said, 860 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:21,000 Oh, by the way, two weeks, week and a half, Mother's Day is coming up 861 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,000 And that's when I said, 862 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000 Oh, well Annette should preach 863 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,000 And when I said it, the whole staff jumped in 864 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,000 And they were like, yes, yes 865 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,000 They mutinied on me 866 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,000 They totally mutinied 867 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,000 You were so outvoted 868 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,000 7 to 1 869 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,000 Okay 870 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,000 And so 871 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,000 There's a good reason for that 872 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,000 Well, there's two reasons 873 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,000 One 874 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Tell us 875 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,000 Well, there's two reasons 876 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,000 One, it's Mother's Day 877 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000 Nobody ever feels like they're a good enough mother to preach on Mother's Day for sure 878 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:56,000 But also, I haven't been in the pulpit in years and years and years and years 879 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,000 And so that just gave me a little pause 880 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,000 But thirdly, let's just say there's three things, not just two 881 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,000 But thirdly, I take it very seriously 882 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:13,000 The weight of preaching the Word of God and dividing His Word out to people 883 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,000 That's a serious thing 884 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,000 So just to be caught off guard like that was 885 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,000 It was not fair 886 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,000 It was not fair to me 887 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,000 But you know what? 888 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,000 You handled it with grace and you said, you know what? 889 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,000 I'll think about it 890 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,000 I'll think about it 891 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,000 I'll let you know 892 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,000 When you said you'll think about it, you were done 893 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,000 Because everybody was all over it 894 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,000 I was like, oh Lord 895 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,000 And so then the next day 896 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,000 I was in my devotions 897 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,000 I was doing a you version devotion 898 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,000 And it came upon this scripture 899 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,000 And it just jumped off the page 900 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,000 And I felt like it was God saying 901 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,000 You can do this 902 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,000 But you're not going to do it in your own strength 903 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,000 You're going to do it in mine 904 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Because you're weak 905 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,000 Because you're weak 906 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,000 And it was 907 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,000 I was like, I can't do this 908 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,000 I'm just too 909 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,000 And God said, no, you're going to do it in my strength 910 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,000 And it was the scripture of the day 911 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,000 And I just began to read that passage 912 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,000 You always look at the context of the passage 913 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,000 And it was a passage that Paul was talking about too 914 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,000 To the church, I think in Rome 915 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,000 And so I was like, okay 916 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,000 I can do this 917 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000 So I called Tina and I said, I'm going to do this 918 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,000 And she was like, really? 919 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,000 So you're going to preach on that? 920 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,000 I'm like, I don't know 921 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,000 I don't know if this is just for me 922 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Or if I'm supposed to preach on this 923 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,000 I really don't know 924 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,000 But it's Mother's Day 925 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,000 How do you bring mother into that? 926 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,000 And so God totally laid it all out 927 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,000 While we were in Milwaukee 928 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,000 And wrote my sermon Saturday 929 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,000 No, Friday 930 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,000 I wrote it Friday morning 931 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,000 Spent all day in the kitchen just writing 932 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,000 And the Lord just given me all these scriptures 933 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,000 And just things that I was supposed to say 934 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:51,000 And I felt extremely confident that this was the word of the Lord 935 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,000 And I did something I've never done 936 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000 You know, we talk a lot about our lives 937 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,000 Especially on this podcast 938 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,000 Everybody knows all about my life 939 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,000 But I never shared about my mother 940 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:08,000 And what the transformation in her life 941 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,000 Before Christ and after 942 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,000 That literally changed the trajectory of all of our lives 943 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,000 Especially my father who came to know Christ 944 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000 Basically within a couple of weeks of him dying 945 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000 And it was because of the seeds my mother planted 946 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,000 And myself and my sister I believe 947 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,000 But I was able to use the message 948 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,000 And talk about her being sold out 24-7 949 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,000 And how we need to walk in Lordship 950 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:41,000 And I said the best gift a mother can give their family 951 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,000 Is to really walk in 24-7 Lordship 952 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,000 Where you're giving everything 953 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000 And what was the question I posed 954 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000 Before, during, and after my sermon? 955 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,000 Do you remember? 956 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,000 I do 957 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000 I wrote it down because it was so powerful 958 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,000 What part of your life is Jesus not the Lord over? 959 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,000 And that was the whole premise of my message 960 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:07,000 And I said it over and over and over 961 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:12,000 So for our listeners, what part of your life is Jesus not the Lord over? 962 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,000 Drop the mic 963 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,000 Even as we were driving in and praying 964 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,000 You said there is an area that I think we need to give to the Lord 965 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,000 And we talked about it, I'm not going to talk about it 966 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,000 It's personal but it's not sinful 967 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,000 It's not anything 968 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,000 It's just one little area 969 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,000 And I'm like you know what? 970 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:39,000 I love that even preaching that and studying it 971 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,000 The Lord showed us something 972 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,000 I think he's always going to show us something 973 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,000 Where are you going? 974 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,000 You're leaving 975 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,000 You're what? 976 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,000 Okay 977 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,000 And so I feel like this is what I love about the Word of God 978 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,000 Is that we're always learning 979 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,000 And we should, okay let me put it this way 980 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,000 We should always be learning and growing 981 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,000 And when you preach a message, if it's not for you first 982 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,000 I don't even know if you should preach it 983 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000 You know what I'm saying? 984 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,000 Either you preach it because you're learning it or you have learned it 985 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,000 Right 986 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,000 Do you know what I'm saying? 987 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,000 So I felt so strongly about this one 988 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,000 And so I preached three services 989 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,000 Okay now I get it 990 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,000 And I had high heels on 991 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,000 Okay you and Brian don't wear high heels 992 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,000 I had like four inch high heels on 993 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000 Don't try to diminish our suffering 994 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,000 We do it every weekend 995 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,000 I know 996 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,000 I did sit down some during worship just to preserve my feet 997 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:46,000 I actually didn't get really really tired until the very end 998 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,000 But it was amazing 999 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,000 I had a great time 1000 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000 But this is what I kept telling people 1001 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,000 I don't want this to just be a good message 1002 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,000 Oh we heard a good message 1003 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,000 Or it was okay, it was an okay message 1004 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,000 I want it to be convicting 1005 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,000 To me if a church, if you walk out and you just say that was good 1006 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000 You didn't learn anything, you're not going to apply anything 1007 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,000 It's just a message, it's just nothing, it's just talk 1008 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,000 But a message should be convicting 1009 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,000 Can I give you an example of that? 1010 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,000 Yes 1011 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,000 Let you rest for a sec 1012 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,000 Okay 1013 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,000 So we were in Milwaukee 1014 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,000 Yes 1015 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,000 They do a presentation 1016 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Yes 1017 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,000 One hour of drinking from a fire hose 1018 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000 Showing how Marxism has crept into our schools 1019 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,000 Starting back in the early 1900s 1020 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:41,000 Back with Rockefeller and all the funding to dumb people down for the factory lines 1021 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,000 They wanted to create good factory workers 1022 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:50,000 So they shaped education to basically teach them not to be critical, independent thinkers 1023 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,000 Because they needed to be able to be subservient and obedient 1024 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,000 And so that started a whole new kind of education 1025 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,000 Just beyond reading, writing, and arithmetic 1026 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,000 We drink from the fire hose 1027 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:10,000 We hear books and lists of statistics of how bad things are right now in our schools 1028 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,000 And in our general world 1029 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,000 And the host gets up and goes, well how did everybody enjoy that? 1030 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,000 And I'm sitting here going, I didn't enjoy that at all 1031 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,000 I'm thinking, I need to do something about this 1032 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000 What is my role? 1033 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:30,000 What am I supposed to do with this hard information I just heard? 1034 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:35,000 And so I thought to myself, that was the wrong question to ask 1035 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000 And I went up to the presenter 1036 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,000 Because he ended up standing right over where we are 1037 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,000 And you said that to him 1038 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,000 And I walked over to him and I said, thank you so much for sharing 1039 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,000 And I said, Paul, who was the host, I said, Paul asked the wrong question 1040 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,000 He goes, what do you mean? 1041 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,000 I said, he asked, how did you all enjoy that? 1042 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,000 And I said, I'll let you know in a week or two after I've processed this 1043 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,000 He said, I get what you're saying 1044 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,000 He understood what I meant 1045 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:04,000 But it should be, when truth is presented 1046 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:09,000 It should cross cut anything in our lives that is not under the Lordship of Christ 1047 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,000 Right 1048 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,000 And we all have something 1049 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,000 Some things 1050 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,000 Yes, we all have many things 1051 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,000 Some things God is working on with us 1052 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,000 And it's not always big and epic 1053 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:26,000 It's typically little nuanced things, little habits you fall into 1054 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,000 It could be gossip, it could be negative talk, it could be coarse talking 1055 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,000 It could be cussing, it could be 1056 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,000 Gosh, I mean I'm thinking little things 1057 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,000 I know, it could be a thousand things 1058 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,000 It's not these big things 1059 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000 Right, nuanced things 1060 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,000 And so that's what I was hoping 1061 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,000 And so of all the 1062 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,000 I've gotten so many emails and texts from preaching 1063 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,000 And I appreciate them so much 1064 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:56,000 But the ones that meant more to me, I don't want to say more 1065 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000 Because they all meant something, they all did 1066 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:03,000 But the ones that I took notice of were the ones that said 1067 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,000 You caused me to think 1068 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,000 There you go 1069 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,000 That's what every preacher, every speaker 1070 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,000 That's our goal, that's our objective 1071 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000 When we're speaking, we're preaching, we're teaching, whatever 1072 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,000 School teacher, we've provoked people to think 1073 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,000 And that's a conviction 1074 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,000 That's a, oh 1075 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,000 That's something the Holy Spirit can work with 1076 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,000 When you have to think about something 1077 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,000 Even if it's provocative 1078 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,000 I'm not intentionally provocative, but truth cuts 1079 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,000 And when you bring the truth 1080 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,000 And you do it because you love people 1081 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000 The Bible says that we're to speak the truth in love 1082 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,000 That's a primary preposition, the word in 1083 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,000 And it literally means because, by or with 1084 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,000 So we speak the truth because we love 1085 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000 Not just in love 1086 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,000 If you just keep it in that place 1087 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaking the truth in love, that's like 1088 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,000 Oh, you need to dumb it down 1089 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,000 Because it's not loving to say something that causes 1090 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,000 Consternation in somebody 1091 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,000 That causes disruption 1092 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,000 And that's not true 1093 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000 No, no, if it makes them uncomfortable 1094 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,000 That's not, that can't be love 1095 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,000 No, we do it because we love them 1096 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,000 If the bridge is out, I have responsibility because I love you 1097 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,000 To warn you, to be a watchman on the wall 1098 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,000 To be Paul Revere who rode through 1099 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,000 And let them know the British are coming 1100 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,000 It's that, you've got to be that one who's sounding the alarm 1101 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,000 And that's what truth does 1102 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,000 It sounds an alarm against sin 1103 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,000 And against rebellion 1104 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,000 And against when we're going against God 1105 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,000 And I'm not talking political 1106 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,000 I'm not talking government 1107 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,000 I'm talking about you being a self-governor 1108 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,000 Of your own soul 1109 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,000 Right, right 1110 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,000 And one of the things 1111 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,000 Obviously, the title of my message was 1112 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Is Jesus your Sunday habit? 1113 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,000 No, you left out a word 1114 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,000 Is Jesus just your Sunday habit? 1115 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,000 Just your Sunday habit 1116 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,000 Which means do you only hear about him, think about him 1117 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,000 See him on Sunday morning 1118 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,000 But then you don't think, see, hear about him during the week 1119 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,000 And we used an illustration 1120 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,000 I say week because you and I talked about it 1121 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,000 About a former employee 1122 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,000 Who worked with our youth 1123 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,000 As a volunteer 1124 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,000 But she was an employee 1125 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000 And she made this statement 1126 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,000 In one of our staff meetings 1127 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:25,000 That she separates her Christian life from her personal life 1128 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,000 And I'm just going... 1129 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,000 Notice the word former employee? 1130 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,000 Yes 1131 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,000 She didn't last long 1132 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,000 No, but the sad thing is... 1133 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:32,000 Say again what she said 1134 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,000 Okay, she separates her Christian life from her personal life 1135 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,000 Okay, this bothers me because how often 1136 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,000 And she would tell the children that 1137 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,000 Youth 1138 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,000 Youth 1139 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,000 How often did she tell them that? 1140 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,000 How much of that did they hear 1141 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000 And how much are they doing because of what she said? 1142 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,000 How much damage did she do? 1143 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,000 Oh my gosh, there are scriptures about people 1144 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,000 That lead children away from the Lord 1145 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,000 Like a millstone tire on your neck thrown into the ocean 1146 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,000 And I'm just like what? 1147 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,000 That is antithetical to the gospel 1148 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,000 But what happens is then they see their parents doing the same thing 1149 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,000 They see their parents live one way, talk another way 1150 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,000 Which is something I've seen in my life 1151 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,000 In a former life 1152 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,000 And so I'm just...I was so appalled 1153 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,000 To remember that she did that 1154 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,000 And it made me think 1155 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,000 There are so many people out there 1156 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,000 That have separated their lives 1157 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,000 And you're either a Christian, you're all in Christian 1158 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,000 Or you're not a Christian at all to me 1159 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,000 You cannot have it both ways 1160 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,000 You just cannot have it 1161 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000 Even the Bible talks about you can't live in the world 1162 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,000 And be spiritual 1163 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,000 You just can't 1164 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,000 We're in the world but we're not of the world 1165 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,000 And so it's...I spoke this message 1166 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,000 And I highlighted my mother a lot 1167 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:04,000 Because she was the one who really impacted my life 1168 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:09,000 I got to see the difference in her 1169 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,000 Before she was a Christian and after she was a Christian 1170 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,000 The transformation was just unbelievable 1171 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,000 She still had her quirks 1172 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,000 She got into legalism and all that 1173 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,000 But that doesn't matter 1174 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,000 It's what I saw before and after 1175 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,000 I was talking to Faith about it today 1176 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,000 And she said, yeah I didn't see Mammal like that 1177 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,000 I said, but you didn't see her before 1178 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,000 So you have no idea 1179 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,000 You don't know the contrast 1180 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,000 And she said, yeah you're right 1181 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,000 And Pawpaw died before I was born 1182 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,000 I said yes 1183 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,000 And that was what she had to deal with 1184 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,000 With my father for 50 years 1185 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,000 She overcame the fear that was happening in our home 1186 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000 Because of what Christ did for her 1187 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,000 And she lived for Christ 1188 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,000 She didn't live for what was going on at home 1189 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,000 She didn't allow that fear of my dad 1190 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:02,000 Constantly bringing curses against us 1191 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,000 And physical attacks against my mom 1192 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,000 She didn't live with that 1193 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,000 She allowed God to take over her life 1194 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,000 And give her peace in the midst of that 1195 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000 She just began to lock her own door 1196 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,000 Because dad moved into another bedroom 1197 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:21,000 I mean she just learned how to live with God 1198 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,000 100% of the day 24-7 1199 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,000 So to me she was Mammal 1200 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:31,000 And Mammal was sold out to Jesus 1201 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000 Mammal, which is funny because she was my mom 1202 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,000 Not my grandmother 1203 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,000 But she could have been because she was 1204 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000 She was older when they had you 1205 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,000 We were older than her when we had faith 1206 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,000 But we're a little bit more... 1207 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,000 I don't know 1208 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,000 Are we cooler? 1209 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,000 I almost said progressive, but I don't like that word 1210 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,000 That's a bad word right now 1211 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,000 We're just young 1212 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,000 We're young minded 1213 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,000 Young minded, there we go 1214 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,000 And able bodied 1215 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,000 Yes, but she lived for the Lord 1216 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,000 Everything she did was for the Lord 1217 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,000 She did 1218 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,000 I mean she was 1219 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,000 Everything 1220 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,000 Everything 1221 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,000 She served her church 1222 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,000 She was revered in her church 1223 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,000 Because she started ministries 1224 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,000 She ministered to individuals 1225 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,000 She prayed with people 1226 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,000 Hundreds of people came to Christ because of my mother 1227 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,000 Led people to Jesus 1228 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,000 I mean she really was 1229 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,000 And she was very quirky 1230 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,000 And it's easy with people 1231 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,000 Especially family 1232 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,000 To get focused on the quirks 1233 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,000 And miss the gold in the hills 1234 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,000 And miss the jewels that are right in front of you 1235 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,000 And looking back 1236 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,000 I think there were times when we were distracted 1237 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,000 By the quirkiness 1238 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,000 Because with family, quirk is always amplified 1239 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,000 It's mom 1240 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,000 It's always amplified 1241 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,000 Mom and their daughters 1242 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,000 There's something about mom and their daughters 1243 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,000 And if Faith and Alicia listen to this 1244 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,000 Which they don't really listen to our podcast 1245 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,000 Our kids don't listen to our stuff 1246 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,000 But if they listen to it 1247 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,000 They would understand 1248 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,000 Because there is this thing with mom and daughters 1249 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,000 And not everybody 1250 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,000 I know some mom and daughters that are so 1251 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,000 Just have this beautiful relationship 1252 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,000 But not everybody has that 1253 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,000 And we tend to look only at the negative 1254 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,000 And the Lord in writing this sermon 1255 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,000 Said I want you to take the gold 1256 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,000 That was in y'all's relationship 1257 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,000 The gold that you saw 1258 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,000 I love that you did that 1259 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,000 Because he sees that 1260 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,000 I need to see it 1261 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,000 And you know what? 1262 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,000 I have never done this before 1263 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:23,000 If I have ever spoken out on Mother's Day 1264 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:28,000 Even if it was just to a small audience 1265 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,000 Women or whatever 1266 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,000 I never have in church that I know of 1267 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,000 Or don't remember 1268 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,000 I always use 1269 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,000 Or if I ever speak 1270 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,000 And I want to say anything about a mom 1271 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,000 I always talk about my daughter Alicia 1272 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:42,000 Being my hero 1273 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,000 Because she gave us our daughter Faith 1274 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:50,000 But I have never ever spoken about my mother 1275 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,000 Unless it was a negative 1276 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:56,000 And I repent for that 1277 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,000 And I think the Bible talks about 1278 00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,000 You honored her 1279 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,000 Honoring our mom and dad 1280 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:03,000 And that we will live a long life 1281 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,000 If we honor our parents 1282 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,000 And I want to live a long healthy life 1283 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,000 Not a long sickly life for sure 1284 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,000 And we want to remember the good 1285 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,000 We want to remember the things 1286 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,000 I don't want to be remembered for my mistakes 1287 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,000 Or my quirks 1288 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,000 Exactly 1289 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,000 Or my shortcomings 1290 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:19,000 And my mother wouldn't want that either 1291 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,000 No, no one would 1292 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,000 And I don't want that either 1293 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,000 We honor where honors do 1294 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:27,000 It was an honor to preach on Mother's Day 1295 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000 And be able to share that story 1296 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,000 But really bring in why 1297 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,000 Why do we need to live 24-7? 1298 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,000 Because this world is so fallen 1299 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,000 And things are happening around us 1300 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,000 And we need Jesus to get us through it 1301 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,000 He's our only hope 1302 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,000 And how cool was it that the day you got to preach 1303 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,000 Was a record-setting attendance day 1304 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,000 We had 700 people 1305 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:55,000 We've never had 700 on a regular Sunday 1306 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,000 Other than Christmas and Easter 1307 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000 So we were on this growing trend 1308 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,000 Which is exciting 1309 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,000 And it's not because we're being sweet and nice 1310 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,000 We're bringing things hard 1311 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,000 We're going really hard 1312 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,000 We're trying to raise the bar of discipleship 1313 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,000 To say if time is truly short in this world 1314 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,000 And I think if you're looking around and a bit perceptive 1315 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,000 You'd realize things are winding down or up 1316 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,000 Whichever way you look at it 1317 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,000 We're accelerating 1318 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,000 Time is short 1319 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,000 And so we don't have time to be nice 1320 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,000 We don't have time to patty cake 1321 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,000 We don't have time to coddle Christians 1322 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,000 We've been coddled for too long 1323 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,000 That's why we're weak and anemic 1324 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,000 There's too many preachers out there 1325 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,000 That are just tickling the ears of people 1326 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,000 And then they're leaving going, oh, that was a good message 1327 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,000 And then they go have lunch 1328 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,000 And they meet someone 1329 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,000 They go, oh, what did they talk about? 1330 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,000 I don't know 1331 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:45,000 But I felt good 1332 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,000 But I felt good when I left 1333 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,000 It was good 1334 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Well, there's something wrong there 1335 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,000 Yeah 1336 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,000 There's something wrong 1337 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,000 The Bible says our responsibility is to equip the saints 1338 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,000 For the work of ministry 1339 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,000 Work, work, work 1340 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,000 Which means work and ministry 1341 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,000 Where they live, where they work, where they play 1342 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,000 And so we made a decision as a team 1343 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:05,000 Yes 1344 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,000 And I led the charge 1345 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,000 But everybody jumped in and said, we've got to raise the bar 1346 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,000 So from our children, our little babies and kids 1347 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,000 By the way, we had a baby dedication service 1348 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,000 13 families 1349 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,000 13 babies, 13 families 1350 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,000 I mean, our stage wasn't big enough for everybody 1351 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,000 So good things are happening 1352 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,000 Need a bigger building and a bigger stage 1353 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,000 The thing is though, since we started raising the bar 1354 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,000 And really calling people to step up and speak out for Christ 1355 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,000 And be the change agent in their sphere of influence 1356 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:38,000 The church started growing 1357 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,000 And we started blowing up 1358 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,000 Because people are ready for truth 1359 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,000 They're ready to be challenged 1360 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,000 And called out 1361 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,000 Not in a bad way 1362 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,000 This is not mean-spirited 1363 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,000 This is because of love 1364 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,000 Right 1365 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,000 It's a love thing 1366 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,000 And you have repented to the church for your apathy 1367 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,000 Yeah, well for being 1368 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:58,000 Really what I repented of was for being too passive 1369 00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,000 Right 1370 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,000 Instead of really challenging them to go all in with Jesus 1371 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,000 Not that I haven't 1372 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,000 Yes 1373 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,000 But this is another level 1374 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,000 It's a whole other level 1375 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,000 It's a whole other thing 1376 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,000 And I did the same thing yesterday 1377 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,000 I apologized 1378 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,000 And cultural engagement 1379 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,000 And said that if you want a church 1380 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,000 That's just going to pat you on the back 1381 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,000 And just let you hear what you want to hear 1382 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,000 Then this might not be the church 1383 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,000 You're in the wrong place 1384 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,000 And if we have 10 people next week 1385 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,000 Then God's given us 10 people 1386 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,000 And we'll see what happens next week 1387 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,000 I've been saying that for months 1388 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,000 And we're up 200 and something people 1389 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,000 It's crazy 1390 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,000 Since New Year 1391 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,000 But I felt like too 1392 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:35,000 I wanted to repent as a staff member 1393 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,000 Just as for our part 1394 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,000 Because I really feel like God's saying 1395 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,000 The time is near 1396 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:45,000 And I need you to accelerate what I'm doing 1397 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,000 And so help everyone understand 1398 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:52,000 Because as we're gaining this revelation 1399 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:53,000 It's not for us 1400 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,000 It's for everybody 1401 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,000 That's right 1402 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,000 That's right 1403 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,000 So what we're doing 1404 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,000 It's our job 1405 00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,000 We're calling people to go deeper in 1406 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,000 In their walk with Jesus 1407 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,000 And to understand the power of lordship in your life 1408 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,000 Jesus has to be Lord 1409 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,000 If He's not Lord overall 1410 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,000 He's not Lord at all 1411 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000 And so we're calling people to go into a deeper level 1412 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,000 Of obedience and saying yes Lord 1413 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,000 Get up in the morning 1414 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000 Good morning Holy Spirit 1415 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,000 Good morning Abba Father 1416 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,000 Lord Jesus 1417 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,000 Lord Jesus 1418 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,000 What do you want me to do today? 1419 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:24,000 Yes, absolutely 1420 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,000 What is my assignment? 1421 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,000 And so we're really drilling that in right now 1422 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,000 And what's happening and also that spills over into 1423 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,000 Your sphere of influence out in the culture 1424 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,000 Yes 1425 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,000 We call it cultural engagement 1426 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,000 We've been silent for too long 1427 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:40,000 The church has capitulated 1428 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:41,000 There's your word 1429 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,000 I love that word 1430 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,000 The church has capitulated 1431 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,000 Yes 1432 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,000 We have stepped back 1433 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,000 Yes 1434 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,000 We have withdrawn ourselves from the public square 1435 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,000 We're no longer relevant 1436 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,000 We're no longer invited to pray before city council meetings 1437 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,000 That happens in some towns occasionally here 1438 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,000 But we're no longer invited to the table 1439 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,000 In terms of bringing 1440 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,000 A scriptural biblical worldview 1441 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,000 Into a city planning meeting 1442 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,000 Or into the mayor's chambers 1443 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000 Pastors used to be the leaders 1444
