#StandWithVictims
“with the victim. You know what I see happen a lot of times? There's some sort of sexual crime that takes place in the church and some preacher that, you know, that you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours and what they want to do is they want to silence the victim and they want to give the sympathy to the man who's accused of doing wrong because he was a great preacher and he did this and he did that and they don't want to show sympathy to the victim. No, what David did, he said, no, my heart and my sympathy is with that one that's been hurt. That one that's been preyed upon.”

#PatternNotSlip
“It was premeditated. It was planned and when you see a man do something like what Kenny Baldwin did, it's not an accident. You you you do not pray on 15 year old boys for a year on accident. That's not a mistake. That's not a slip. That's not a stumble. That's a pattern, okay? If there are multiple incidents of something happening and they've got time progressing and they're doing it and they're doing it and they're doing it and they're doing it. Let's not mischaracterize that as a fall or a slip or an accident. That's not what that is. That's a pattern, okay?”

#RighteousnessNotPartisan
“Can I say this, I'm really not loyal to any politician or any political party party? I'm loyal to righteousness and whoever's being right, they, okay, that's what I'm for. So, even when my side of the aisle gets it wrong, guess what? A spade's a spade, they're wrong, right? But so often, we get quiet when it comes to our side because well, now that's friendly fire. The only thing that we ought to really be pursuing with friendliness is righteousness and anybody who opposes righteousness”
25s
#NotGuiltyByAssociation
“We need to be careful about assuming that just because it comes out that someone did wrong, that everybody else associated with the wrongdoer is what they are. You better be careful about making that accusation because that's one of the things that's happening right now. Everybody that was tied to Kenny now is under a magnifying glass that well, they must be the same thing. We can't do that. That's not what David did.”
43s
#FinishWell
“``He was a good king. He served the lord his entire life but that doesn't mean he was perfect and it doesn't mean that he always did exactly what he was supposed to do. When god told him to set his house in order, he didn't do it. May we not just start well and even go through life well but may we end well. May we finish our course. So that when we see the lord, he may say to us, well done, thou good and faithful servant. May god find us faithful.”
35s
#FamilyResponsibility
“It it's not enough to just think about yourself and it's not enough for you to serve the lord. It's not enough for you to do good things for me. It's not enough for you to be to to be a great warrior for me and to and to serve me with all of your heart. You need to make sure that your family is taken care of. You need to make sure that your family is following in your footsteps. You need to make sure that your family is doing those things as well but instead, Hezekiah, his focus was not on his family. His focus was not on his children. His focus was on himself.”
32s
#GodUsesTheFlawed
“But I bring all that up because god uses flawed human beings not because of their greatness, not because of their spirituality, not because of the good things that they do, but because god wants to get the glory and if we ever get to the point as Hezekiah did and as many people do and as we are all tempted to do, as we begin to feel the blessings of the lord in our lives and experience the blessings of god in our lives, we get tempted to think that that god owes us something.”
26s
#InvestInNextGen
“When god is blessing Hezekiah and god blesses him with an extra fifteen years, what Hezekiah should have done, what he didn't do, what he should have done is said, god has given me fifteen more years that I didn't deserve. I'm going to invest those fifteen years in my children. I'm going to invest those fifteen years and those that are going to come after me and I'm going to set my house in order but that's not what Hezekiah did. Right.”

#FallenNeedRedeemer
“Why is Mephibosheth lame? Why is he dependent upon somebody else? Because of a fall. Is this ringing any bells yet? Yeah. Why are we dependent upon somebody else? Why do we need a savior? Why do we need a redeemer? Why do we need somebody to do something for us? Why can't we do it for ourselves? Because of a fall. The Bible says in Genesis three that Adam and Eve sinned in the garden and that god cursed man and that this whole creation has been fallen ever since then. That we have plummeted off into sin and because of that sin, it don't matter how many leads we turn over, don't matter how much good we try to do, we are still the enemy of god because of a fall. There's nothing we can do for ourselves. We are lame on our feet and if somebody don't do it for us, it don't get done. Right. That's the bottom line. That's Mephibosheth.”
46s
#GodIsSeekingYou
“You know, that's exactly the truth for every sinner. Right. You try everything you want to try. You can push and grunt and moan and everything else but until you meet the savior, you're not going nowhere. You're going be stuck in that exact same spot spinning your wheels, trying over and over and over and over again until god comes and gets you out of that place, you will be sitting there. That's right. But here's the good news this morning. God's looking for somebody to get out of that place, isn't he? That's right. He was looking for somebody. He wasn't even just looking for Mephibosheth. He said, is there anybody? He said, well, I'm in that place. Unfulfillment, empty, bondage, everything else. I'm in that place. Well, here's the good news. There's a good king that's looking for people like you.”
