[00:00:01] How's everyone doing?
[00:00:04] Good. I hope you enjoyed your holidays. Ours got picked apart by influenza, so dad is on the men's. He misses you and he wishes he could be here with you today, but he's got to get better. So let's pray and let's get started.
[00:00:22] Dear Heavenly Father, you are a mighty God.
[00:00:27] You are holy.
[00:00:31] Oh, how I love you, Father. And I pray that your name will be known in this place.
[00:00:38] Pray for every man and woman, listening, watching wherever and whenever, that you will show them that you are a God of the comeback.
[00:00:49] You are a God who doesn't put a stamp on the story until the story is finished.
[00:00:54] And I pray that inside of all of us, you will shine a great light, that we will fight the good fight, that we will finish the race, Father, and that we will keep the faith.
[00:01:07] In your mighty son's name we pray. Amen.
[00:01:11] Sometimes I love him so much, I can't even stand it. Just love him.
[00:01:15] So this break, I read a book, I actually listened to it, and I can't remember the title, which. I'm so sorry, but the idea was better than the book, so I'm going to share the idea with you. And in this book, the author was talking about how inside of each and every one of us, we have, like, four kind of main characters.
[00:01:38] And one of those characters is the villain, one of them is the victim, one of them is the hero, and one of them is the guide.
[00:01:49] And when he talks about the four different characters within us, he talks about them so that we can move from villain to victim, shift from those two to the hero and to the guide and how he defined the villain is a villain, is someone who really wants to make people feel small.
[00:02:12] And it's funny because I rarely would think of myself as a villain until he labeled these four. And I've been kind of paying attention throughout my week, and I was like, oh, man, one little thing and I can turn into the villain.
[00:02:28] Like when mommy and daddy get in a fight, you know what I'm saying? Like, the villain wants to poke her ugly head.
[00:02:36] I get in the car and someone cuts me off. The villain has arrived. Do. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, I just didn't give myself enough credit for how much of these personalities that I actually do have. The victim, the idea is there's no way out. And this is subtle in my life because the victim mentality is harder for me because I really am like a fighter by nature. And so I was thinking, okay, where is the victim? Where does she show up and I was like, oh, there she is. Sickle Christmas on my break, couldn't have got sick when I had to work, you know what I'm saying? Had to be sick on the break. And then the victim came where I started to feel sorry for myself. Any of these relatable to you? Okay, now the hero is not just someone who, like, is, you know, better than everybody. The hero is someone who faces challenges and transforms because of it. And so the idea is a hero is not without hardships, not without struggles, not without adversity. But ultimately, the hero faces life head on, faces their challenges and transforms.
[00:03:49] And then the guide, he was saying is really, when you've lived as a hero, when you've lived the challenges of life and you've let it not wear you down, but you've let it transform you for the better, you become a guide. You become a helper to other people who are walking the road that you've walked. It's like the Mr. Miyagi and the Karate Kid, right?
[00:04:15] And so as I was just thinking about this book and all the little things in my life, I was just like, it's a new year. It's a great time to start thinking in healthy ways. It's a great time to look ahead and cast out, like, who am I authentically trying to be?
[00:04:33] And I don't know about you, but man, I am so sick of letting God down.
[00:04:38] I'm so sick of just feeling like I'm struggling with the same nonsense time and time and time again. I'm sick of it. Like, there's just something inside my soul that is like, he deserves so much better than what I have to offer.
[00:04:56] And I just, I really want to start moving the needle in the fine tuning of my soul, in the fine tuning of my character. And I think that the beauty of who God is and how he works is when I look at scripture, it's not the perfect that he chooses. It's the messed up, it's the flawed, it's the people that have issues, it's the victims, it's the villains.
[00:05:22] And through the love and the power and the transformation of Jesus Christ, we become something more like him.
[00:05:32] I believe that God loves a comeback.
[00:05:37] I believe that our story is never finished. Like, who I was last year does not have to define who I am this year.
[00:05:44] I believe that who I was as a 16 year old girl does not get to define who I am as a 42 year old woman. Now here's the beauty. I've allowed God to work in my life, that he has shaped me along the way. And so where I once felt shame about things, I've done, now it's just part of my story. Now that shame has become like, let me tell you about my life because I wanna point you to Jesus Christ, because if he could do it in me, he will do it in you.
[00:06:15] So I don't know where you sit this morning if you are like good and solid and healthy and you've got your goals and you've got your wor, if maybe you're feeling like I could use a comeback, I could use a little something. Maybe you're like me, where it's not all bad, there's a lot of beauty. But man, I need some fine tuning in my soul. Then I want us to point today to Jesus Christ.
[00:06:40] I want to look in the book of Acts, because here is the coolest thing about Acts. Acts is after Christ died and came back to life and these hundreds of people saw him, his disciples saw him die, and then they saw him live. And the book of Acts, I'm studying it with some of our 20 somethings and we're just like, man, what must that have been like? Like to physically see it, you don't have any doubts. You saw it and you can see the transformation of the disciples. You see where they were like fumbling and bumbling. And then you see them like boldly walk into life because there was no doub in their mind what they saw.
[00:07:24] There was no doubt in their mind that there was a God in heaven who sent Christ for them.
[00:07:31] And so Acts is this book where they're boldly proclaiming God is doing something incredible. The Holy Spirit is like literally on fire, okay? And people are empowered and they're bold and they don't care what absolute, they don't care if people are putting them in jail. They don't care if people are after them. Because they are so sure of what they know, they're so sure of what they've seen, that literally nothing will stop them.
[00:08:06] But here's life.
[00:08:09] As beauty grows, opposition happens.
[00:08:13] And in this book, beauty is growing everywhere. People are coming to know Jesus Christ.
[00:08:19] The numbers are baffling.
[00:08:22] It's like 500 one day, 3,000 the next, and thousands and thousands and thousands.
[00:08:29] And as the opposition is growing, the Jewish leaders, the religious leaders, they're like, we gotta stop this.
[00:08:37] And almost everybody, even atheists, will say something happened that day. Like Christianity was kicked off the day that Jesus Christ rose from the dead. Like, even atheists will say, I Don't know exactly what happened, but something happened that day because hundreds and thousands of people started to follow Jesus Christ.
[00:09:02] And the Jewish religious leaders at the time, they wanted to do everything in their power to stop this because they believed that Jesus was not the Messiah.
[00:09:12] And so they thought, out of religious duty to God, that they would shut this down.
[00:09:21] And it wasn't called Christianity then. It was just simply called the Way.
[00:09:26] It was the Way.
[00:09:28] This is the way we're following Jesus.
[00:09:32] And there was a man named Saul who was over it.
[00:09:36] And he was zealous for God. He was zealous for the Jewish religion. He was zealous. And I was like, what is this word comparable to? Because it's like, we don't really say zealous anymore, but it's like this deep, fiery passion and sense of right.
[00:09:52] And so believing with all his heart that he was fighting for God, he went and he got letters so that he could go to Damascus and literally go into homes and take women and men. And if you followed the way, if you believed in Jesus, he was going to take you and put you in prison.
[00:10:13] And I think that's, like. It becomes a story in our head. If you've heard this before, like, oh, weird. But, like, literally, sit in it for a minute.
[00:10:22] Like, just sit in it. Because you believe in Christ, someone could come into your home, take you, and imprison you.
[00:10:34] And Paul was sure he was on fire. He was, like, motivated. And I just see him walking on this road on his way with his paper, and so sure himself and so full of pride of, like, this is going to end.
[00:10:51] And by all accounts, Paul is the village until Jesus Christ showed up.
[00:11:03] He was on his way.
[00:11:06] And a bright light encompassed Paul, Saul, Paul. I'm gonna probably call them both.
[00:11:16] His reaction was to fall over. I don't know if he was on a horse or a donkey, if he was walking, but he was encompassed in this great light. Some scholars believe it might have been like. Like a flash of lightning that surrounded him.
[00:11:36] But from the light, a voice called out and said, saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?
[00:11:46] And Saul is like, who are you, Lord?
[00:11:50] And the voice came back and he said, I am Jesus.
[00:11:54] I am the one you are persecuting.
[00:11:58] And I just have to make a side note.
[00:12:06] Paul never physically met Jesus. He never physically persecuted Jesus.
[00:12:12] But Jesus took it personal when he persecuted his people.
[00:12:18] Jesus took note when Paul hurt the people that he loved.
[00:12:28] And I just think we have to be extremely careful about what we think we are doing in the name of God.
[00:12:38] I think we have to be extremely careful how we treat people because of our values and our belief.
[00:12:47] Because in all ideas, Paul thought he was right. But Jesus speaks to him in a blinding light and says, why are you persecuting me?
[00:13:00] Paul is blinded. He can't see. And now he is. He is. The light's gone. And the guys around him heard the voice, but they saw nothing. And everyone is in just shock.
[00:13:12] Paul's physically blind. He can't see.
[00:13:15] His friends are like, what do we do now?
[00:13:20] And they guide Paul into Damascus.
[00:13:28] He was so sure, so confident, but everything he knew was flipped upside down.
[00:13:40] And I think sometimes in our life that there are setbacks that happen. My dad likes to call them divine redirections, where everything you knew to be true feels different.
[00:13:53] Where there's a setback that feels like you don't even understand what to do next.
[00:13:59] And in these divine redirections, if we allow it, I believe that God wants to do something so, so much better in our life.
[00:14:08] I believe that God is using this setback to set you up for something bigger and better. He's trying to realign you back into the way of what his story is. He's trying to get you back into play of what he's got for you.
[00:14:24] And Paul is now in Damascus. And now there is another man that we'll never hear about again. We hear him once in the book of Acts, and it's Acts 9, and his name is Ananias.
[00:14:35] And he is a believer. He's a follower of the way. He believes in Jesus. And that's literally just about all we know. And the voice of the Lord comes to him when he is praying. And it says, ananias, there is Paul. There's Saul. I want you to go to this street. It's called Straight Street. I want you to go to Judas House. I want you to find Saul, and I want you to touch him and pray for him so that he can have sight.
[00:15:04] And Ananias is like, that's good. That's good, Lord. That's really good. But we've heard of this man.
[00:15:13] We heard he's literally coming for us.
[00:15:16] We heard that he is going to arrest us if he knows that we believe in you.
[00:15:23] And then verse nine.
[00:15:26] I'm sorry, chapter nine, verse 15 is for all of us today. This is how the Lord replies to Ananias. But the Lord said to him, go. For he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and the kings and the children. Of Israel.
[00:15:46] He is my chosen instrument, Ananias. So I want you to go.
[00:15:52] Could it be that we are God's chosen instrument?
[00:15:59] Could it be that God wants to use you exactly in the situation that you're in because you are a chosen instrument?
[00:16:12] What if this year you just say, I am a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ?
[00:16:19] And what if I am his chosen instrument in this particular situation I'm in right now?
[00:16:27] If I am a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ in my marriage, God chose me. He chose me and my husband to be together, or at least we chose each other, then I have to be an instrument for Jesus Christ in my marriage.
[00:16:44] I have to fight for what is beautiful. I have to fight for what is best.
[00:16:50] If God gave me my children, then they are mine for life, and he knows what he is doing.
[00:17:00] And so if I am their mom, then I am a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ as their mom, I am going to fight to love them deeper and better than anybody else in my life.
[00:17:14] I'm going to fight to get it right more and harder with them and my family than anybody else because they are my chosen instrument. I am their chosen instrument from Jesus Christ.
[00:17:28] What if in your workplace that you are literally put there by God, that you are his chosen instrument in your workplace and that the people that you're struggling with, it's not by accident, but it is for a reason?
[00:17:47] What if you switched your mindset from the victim or the villain over always being annoyed or what it is, and say, okay, if this is where I'm at today, then how do I be the chosen instrument that God has called me to be?
[00:18:04] Maybe it's your parents, maybe you've been hurt.
[00:18:15] And it's easy to feel like the victim, because sometimes we are.
[00:18:21] But how do you switch it from victim to survivor, from survivor to a fighter?
[00:18:32] How do you transform your story so that your kid's story looked different, your family story looked different, that you are the. The chosen instrument of God to change the whole trajectory of your future and the people you encounter's future.
[00:18:51] Saul was healed. Ananias went, he lifted. God healed him. It said like, something like scales popped off his eyes. Which is weird. Probably gross, right? I'd be like, okay.
[00:19:07] Actually, I'd probably be like, what on earth is that?
[00:19:13] And Saul goes about changing the course of history for all of us.
[00:19:20] God used his exact personality.
[00:19:24] God used his exact personhood.
[00:19:28] Except something was very humbled that day.
[00:19:31] The pride was softened.
[00:19:35] And Saul went and he told every single person he could. He was the first missionary he went to different places all over to bring the gospel of Jesus Christ.
[00:19:51] And I want to leave us with three ideas from Paul today, that if we are a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ to carry his name in this broken world, how do we do it?
[00:20:05] Because I love a good pump you up sermon, but I really love a practical sermon. I like someone to be like, girl, here is how, here are the steps. And I was thinking about Paul's life. And later in his life he talks to a kid that he's mentored and it's Timothy. And you'll find this in second Timothy. And he's saying to Timothy, like, listen, my whole life I have poured it out as an offering for Christ.
[00:20:36] In some spots you'll hear him say, to live is Christ, but to die is gain. Like, if I am living, I am living for him, but if I die, I get to see him like, as against Christ, as against.
[00:20:50] I'm going to say this so poorly. Against, as against.
[00:20:55] We're gonna skip it.
[00:20:57] He was as zealous for Christ as he was against him. Okay? He was as passionate for him. So he spent his entire life and guess what? He suffered along the way.
[00:21:09] But he kept writing these books. Thirteen of the books he was writing them.
[00:21:15] He struggled and he was imprisoned and, and he wouldn't stop.
[00:21:21] He changed the jails, families, he wouldn't stop. He was just, he was pouring his life out because at the end of the day, that's what mattered.
[00:21:34] At the end of the day, he needed to find true meaning and he found his meaning and his purpose in Jesus Christ and church. Our life is only going to mean something thing when we connect it to the power of God.
[00:21:49] Our life is only going to be worth fighting for when we connect it to Jesus Christ.
[00:21:56] And he's talking to Timothy and he's late in his life and he said, listen, I've poured out my life as this offering. And here's what I want you to know, that I fought the good fight.
[00:22:09] I think I was supposed to be like a fighter in my, in my life somehow.
[00:22:15] Cause I hear these tones and these whispers and everything in my soul is like, yes, fight the good fight.
[00:22:24] There's something in my soul that cries out to Jesus Christ. I'm so sick of getting it wrong. You deserve better. But I love you.
[00:22:33] You deserve better. But I want to fight harder.
[00:22:37] I want to not just fight the dumb fights. I want to fight the fight that you have given to me. Me.
[00:22:43] There is a man named Viktor Frankl. Some of you maybe read his book Man's Search for Meaning. Has anyone read that book before? Great book, if you haven't. And Viktor Frankl was a psychiatrist. And before Nazi Germany invaded, he was working on this idea that meaning is a driving force in life. And it was called logotherapy. And he was working on patients who were suicidal. And the results he was getting was, like, unmatched by anything. And these patients who were suicidal found meaning and purpose, and they would not be suicidal anymore. And so he was writing this manuscript on this logotherapy. He was a neurologist at a hospital, but when they invaded him and his pregnant wife, his mom and dad were all taken to a concentration camp.
[00:23:48] And he said, you know, this is. I've been working on this.
[00:23:52] I feel like when we can't control the situations, we can control who we are.
[00:23:59] And so what he did was in the concentration camps, when new people came, he would try to work with them to try to find meaning, even in the most pointless, brutal time of their life.
[00:24:13] And he said that those that survived found meaning.
[00:24:19] He lost his wife, his unborn baby. He lost his mom, he lost his dad. And he kept searching for the meaning of life.
[00:24:31] He kept writing. His manuscript was taken. So while he was here, he kept writing and trying to figure out ways to make it come to life and make it work and see it go through.
[00:24:41] To fight the good fight, you have to understand your why in life.
[00:24:47] And your why in life is you are a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ.
[00:24:52] In whatever situation you are particularly in, you are a chosen instrument of Jesus Christ.
[00:25:00] So you gotta find your why and you gotta fight the good fight.
[00:25:05] What is your why now?
[00:25:07] What is the situation you're in when there is meaning and beauty? With Jesus Christ, there is a life and a fight that is worth fighting. And Paul found it.
[00:25:21] Timothy or Paul said, you gotta finish the race.
[00:25:27] I.
[00:25:29] This one's interesting to me because I think there are so many cultural scripts we get in life.
[00:25:38] When you're little, you go to school. It's a script you follow. Go to school, preschool through 12th grade.
[00:25:49] Some of you go to college, some of you get married, you start a job, you get married. There's, like, these cultural scripts, but what happens? At some point, the script runs out, and culture doesn't create your playbook anymore.
[00:26:04] And a lot of times we fizzle out with it.
[00:26:08] And a lot of times it's like, okay, well, I've got the job. I'm married. There's like, an unsatisfaction that happens, and you're left trying to figure out okay, well, what next?
[00:26:23] Michael Phelps was one of the most decorated swimmers of all time. I think it was in 2008. He won eight Olympic gold medals at this one Olympics, and he was, like, trained and trained and trained. But what happened after these Olympics was he said, I literally did everything I thought I wanted to do. Like, once you get eight, no one else in the world is gonna do that. What's possibly next?
[00:26:57] And he said, like, after that Olympics, he. It really just took a dive for him. He didn't really have meaning. He didn't have purpose. He turned to drugs and alcohol, and he ended up getting, like, a couple DUIs. I think he got suspended.
[00:27:15] And his life was just. He said it felt like he was on a downward elevator and nothing was stopping the elevator.
[00:27:23] And he had a friend named Ray Lewis. Don't know much about sports, but football player.
[00:27:29] And Ray Lewis, he had his down moment also, but Ray Lewis had found God.
[00:27:37] And it was during this downward spiral of Michael Phelps that Ray Lewis decided to reach out to Michael Phelps and try to help him. And so he reached out and he said, I think you need to go to rehab.
[00:27:51] I think you really need to get in order what is happening in your life.
[00:27:57] And so Michael Phelps went to rehab. But Ray Lewis had one other thing. He said, when you're in rehab, I want you to read this book.
[00:28:05] And he handed Ray Lewis the Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. Ray Lewis handed Michael Phelps the book.
[00:28:13] And in rehab, Phelps was just reading the book, and it was like his life was awakening for the first time. It was like he would call Lewis and he'd be like, I just can't believe what this book is saying. It's everything that I've been feeling inside, but I didn't know how to articulate it. And Michael Phelps is, like, is the most decorated athlete. He's got more money than he knows what to do with. But he was suicidal. And now. Now there's meaning in his life for the first time, because he's connected to Jesus Christ.
[00:28:43] There's meaning in his life. And when I think about finishing the race, like, some of you have to figure out, what is your script, what is your story?
[00:28:56] If you're going to fight the good fight and finish the race, then you have to find your story and create it. But here's the problem. Most stories end.
[00:29:08] And so when one thing ends in your life, like, we're in a transition in our home, where everyone's leaving and getting married. Bunch of jerks. You know what I'm saying?
[00:29:19] They're getting married, starting their own families, and that's a transition for Jacob and I. And being a mom is the love story of my life, man, I love it. I want them to be little. I want them to be home. I love it. And so when one story ends, if we don't write another story, that's when midlife crisis wrecks and damages our life. You hear me?
[00:29:46] So Jacob and I aren't idly sitting by and being like, oh, the victim. Because I would love to play that card.
[00:29:55] We're fighting, we're strategizing, we're figuring it out. The kids are sticking around a little longer than I thought and mama's loving it. But like we are, we're trying to make our relationship stronger. When one story ends, another one has to begin.
[00:30:12] Some of you are in that retirement age and the story of your life has been working.
[00:30:19] And now what your worth has been is what you've done.
[00:30:25] And what I love about the idea of this book is maybe it's your time now to become the guide.
[00:30:32] Maybe your job right now is to guide and mentor and help carry someone through the life's hardest journeys.
[00:30:41] You're going to fight the good fight and you are going to finish the race.
[00:30:48] But most importantly, we're going to end here. You're going to keep the faith.
[00:30:56] I have made it my mission that I am partnering with God in my life.
[00:31:02] If I am a chosen instrument, then he is my partner.
[00:31:08] And if God is my partner, then when we go through the things that we go through, we don't waste it.
[00:31:18] So the easiest I always talk about mine and Jacob's dysfunctional relationship when we were younger. It's just easy to talk about.
[00:31:28] Let's go, let's go. We're in it together.
[00:31:34] Before, when we were young, we'd get into these moments that would just be like, it just pulls apart and like we just really didn't care what the other person thought. We didn't care because it was so self focused. It was so much about like, well, this is how I feel.
[00:31:50] And something happened in our 30s where we started to shift. I think it's God happened. And we just started to say, okay, we're not going to waste the pain. If something hard comes up, then we are going to use it to grow us more deeper and get more intimacy, know each other better.
[00:32:10] And so if something came up that I had done or something had come up that he would have done before, it would have torn us apart.
[00:32:19] But now it is our goal. Like, okay, God wanted To bring this to the light. So let's get it in the light. Let's use it. Let's step into it. If we're gonna feel this miserable, then let's use it for something good. We're not gonna waste the pain.
[00:32:35] And so marriage is one aspect of that, but you can use that for every aspect of your life.
[00:32:41] I looked up the most typical reasons why people lose faith.
[00:32:47] A lot of it has to do with, like, a hypocrisy of a church community.
[00:32:55] Another reason is, like, you're disappointed in your religious leaders.
[00:32:59] There's some sort of, like, moral failure or some sort of break that, like, ends up breaking the congregation, breaking you. And then the last one is, like, trauma and loss.
[00:33:10] Like, when you really go through the hardest things of life, it's like you lose your faith in those things.
[00:33:17] And I've probably been through all of those.
[00:33:20] And I was just thinking, like, when people get it wrong in the church, it does annoy me so bad. And I want to just be like, shut up. Like, please do not stop. We were watching something so dumb, and this guy was, like, professing Jesus, and I was like, if he messes this up on television, I am going to be very mad at him.
[00:33:43] And he didn't. He was awesome as something. Mr. Beast, I don't know.
[00:33:49] But when. When. When people in the church have got it wrong. Listen, I grew up in the church. That I'm even up here is only the work of God. Because I'm telling you right now, I would not choose this job. I watched my mom and dad do it. Public speaking makes me sick. I'm sweating profusely. Like, I just. I would never choose this.
[00:34:11] But somehow, in God's good idea, he chose me.
[00:34:15] And because he chose me, it is the honor of my life to sweat through it, to sometimes throw up before I speak, to just figure it out. Because. Because he's worth it.
[00:34:26] He's worth it.
[00:34:29] And when I think about this one life that we're giving, I am partnering with God, and I will not waste the pain. Because you know what? I think? I am the church.
[00:34:41] You are the church. And if people at the church make me mad, I can somehow make it better.
[00:34:48] I get to show the beauty. I get to show the grace. I get to show the dignity that Christ.
[00:34:55] And so when someone gets it wrong, I don't leave. I don't. It might hurt my feelings. You know what I do? I fight the fight.
[00:35:03] I show who Jesus Christ is through my life. I don't quit. I don't walk away. I'm going to finish the race. And most importantly, I'm going to keep my faith because I am a partner with Jesus Christ.
[00:35:17] I am his partner in this life. And if he chose me, then I will pour out my life as a drink offering for him.
[00:35:25] If he chose me, I will figure out how to find the meaning in the suffering.
[00:35:30] If he chose me, I will figure out how do we do this in the kind of way where people love him because he is so worthy of it all.
[00:35:42] Let's move the needle.
[00:35:45] Let's move the needle of the character of our soul.
[00:35:50] We are not victims. We are not villains.
[00:35:53] We are chosen instruments of Jesus Christ.
[00:35:58] And we will fight the good fight.
[00:36:02] We will keep the faith.
[00:36:05] We will finish the race because he is so incredibly worthy of it all. Let's pray.
[00:36:13] Dear Heavenly Father, you are a mighty God that I so love.
[00:36:19] I pray that you fill us with hope, encouragement, light. Father, shine your light in the darkness.
[00:36:26] Help us to be the men and women that you chose. Help us to not quit, but help us to seek you, to love you, to cherish you, and to find you worthy of it all.
[00:36:39] I pray for every heart that is connecting. Father, will you just meet them where they're at?
[00:36:45] Will you call them by name?
[00:36:50] Can they hear your truth and your wisdom and your beauty for this life?
[00:36:55] And can you help rewrite their story, Fine tune the character so that we can bring a light to a dark world?
[00:37:06] In your mighty son's name, we pray. Amen.
