“Stop condemning yourself for something you did in second grade or maybe in your first marriage and in your second marriage or your third marriage and you keep beating yourself up and you're not allowing yourself to enter into the things that God has for you because you're just living in this shame. And God is saying, clean from the inside is what's possible in me. Amen? Your beatitudes are not instructions for earning God's favor. They're evidence what God produces in a surrendered life.”

“We really are changing the world. Every person who goes, every person who shows up, every person who gives up a Saturday to help somebody nearby or a week or more to help somebody overseas, we all get to be the change. We're all sent to be the change. And if you're not a part of it in some way, you're missing out. So get over the cost. It costs money and time. Get over it. Come with us. Because there are thousands, thousands more Kates out there, and we're being sent to help them.”

It does not matter. None of it. Wherever you are, do whatever you can to take care of the little bit of God's kingdom right around We do not need the glory. We don't even need a name. In fact, to God be the glory.”
48s
“A controlling person is a fearful person. I'm gonna be saying this, I'm gonna unpack this a lot. We are not called, I am not called to control my husband. Which he's like, amen. I am called to have self control. I am not called to control anyone. I am called to have self control. You are not called to control situations your future. You are called to have, say it with me, self control. Actually, that is a fruit of living in the spirit of God is to have control over yourself.”

“He possessed authority. I read that. And he authority, wisdom, and he had every right to defend himself. Yet he chose to surrender to the father. Meekness isn't this good? Meekness is not the absence of power, but submitting our control to God's control. Amen? The meek are not those who cannot act. They are those who refuse to dominate when God has told them to wait. They do not manipulate outcomes or fight for control. Instead, they trust God to establish what truly matters in his time.”

“And so Isaiah wonders, we wonder, how can I even stand in the presence of this one? And how can God possibly then use me, an ordinary person can I just say it, doesn't always do what's right, not just in the past but still today? Who doesn't always have the right motives, not just in the past but still today. How can God possibly use me to change the world?”

“That touch took away Isaiah's guilt before God, and it gave him right standing with God, and it gave him the ability to stand continuously in the presence of God. And wouldn't it be great if the story ends there? Kinda feels like the story should end there. We close the Bible. We find Isaiah having been made sin free. His sin has been atoned for. His guilt is gone. The camera fades back. The music fades out. Isaiah's praising God, getting down with the angels. But that's not the end of the story. Because Isaiah is forgiven, and Isaiah is restored, but he's about to be commissioned.”
38s
“But I keep it straight out of love. All I want oh, we all want we all want to believe. We all want to believe to know that what we do counts, and it matters. We want to believe that the effort is worth it in the end. is what this message is about. This is about honest, unassuming, and dedicated service no matter who you are or who notices.”

“It turns out that you can be a little person and amaze Jesus. You can be a small presence and make a big impression. You can even be nameless and inspire others for centuries. As vast and wide and immeasurable as the kingdom of God might be and certainly is, my little part is the broom closet. All I gotta do is keep it straight and make sure people have brooms when they need them.”
34s
