#DivineAppointments
“There's a thing, you may have heard this before, but a divine appointment. Has anyone ever heard of that? A divine appointment. I remember in faith evangelism training, that was something that we were taught about and we were to pray for, divine appointments. This meant that God had already ordained this moment for us to meet this person and to have a gospel conversation with them. And and I would say this, it may not necessarily be a full gospel conversation, but something that will help that person move closer to receiving Christ or to be encouraged in their faith or to help them with something that they've been praying for. Remember, when we pray for God to help us, sometimes he sends people. He sends the church. And and so so you never know how that that interruption may be exactly what God intended for you to do, and it wasn't an interruption at all.”

“At the end of the day, friends, this isn't about, you know, selling giving to the poor. That's not what this story is about in particular. This particular story is about responding to something that Mary saw. She saw how good God had been. She saw what Jesus had done for her, and she was overwhelmed, and it caused her to do these over the top kinds of things. We're even told in the in the story that that, even Judas, when he was saying these words, he wasn't saying them because he cared about the poor. He was saying them because he wanted to skim off the top. That's not what this story is about. This story is about noticing what God has done and then responding to it in a way that is righteous, in a way that is not not in like, not designed to win more of God's favor, just to say thank you for the favor you've already been given.”

“Just like the prodigal son that came home to the father and the father embraced him. That is our God, Ready to embrace every one of you. I do not know what you're entangled in. I don't know what you're involved in, but Jesus does. Let's get out of the rocks. Let's get out of the trample ground. Let's get out of the thorns. Let's dig in on Jesus. Today, this place is yours. This is between you and the Lord, not me. I am not God. I'm just jacked up as y'all. We need Jesus. He died for us so we can have everlasting life. Let's pray. Father, we need you desperately.”

“Generally don't have a summer that goes by that one air conditioner doesn't go down and calls us a lot of financial cost. And and even though we try to implement maintenance protocols and service service and maintenance contracts, it's just so many moving parts that things break. And so that's what the trustees are for. The trustees serve as as that particular body that answers those calls. We don't necessarily do the work, but we do facilitate and make sure the work gets done so that God's house is ordered, the lights are on, it's a safe and welcoming and inviting place.”

#LoveLikeJesus
“And this is why we treat people with love and show them that they matter. This is why we slow down and take notice. This is why we respond in a way that we can help. Not because kindness is some type of evangelistic strategy just to get people to listen to the gospel, but because of who we truly are in Christ. We care about people because Jesus cares about people. And that Jesus loves every person and wants every person to have the opportunity to hear the gospel, to make a decision to receive Christ. He desires for all men to be saved, and he uses you and I.”

#InterruptionsAsOpportunities
“That's what we do with our time. That's what we do with life. And so we get so busy even doing... We're we're so busy doing stuff for God that we oftentimes miss the things that God has for us to do. And there's opportunities all around us that God is intending for us to have, but we're so busy for our things that we wanna do for God or or live in our lives or our our own things that's going on we fail to see what God had for us. It would've been easy for Jesus to see this as an interruption. But what we need to do is see interruptions as opportunities. That interruption may be the very thing that God had for you to do.”

#ShareTheEncounter
“We want to encounter, we... As we encounter Jesus in our life, we want to make sure that other people have the opportunity to encounter Jesus. We don't wanna be like the crowd and tell, the... Those people, those interruptions, to be quiet, to get back in your place. I don't have time for you. Jesus doesn't have time for you. We wanna make sure that we pause, notice the person, and respond in a way that we can help. Not because we have it all together, because we don't. Not because we can fix all the problems, because we can't. Not because we have all the answers, because we don't. But because we know the one who does.”

#RespondToTheNeed
“But there might be something we can do. Right? I imagine that Bartimaeus didn't just make his way to Jesus on his own. He probably had to have someone guide him. You know? There may... Maybe, you know, maybe he could use some other help. But here's the thing. Don't just notice, this is on your sheet, respond to the need in front of you. I didn't say meet the need. I said respond.”
27s
#BeLikeJesus
“Notice how Jesus respond. He actually stops and sees the person. We'll get to that in a minute. There's a difference between being around Jesus and being like Jesus. These people had been walking with Jesus. They were in proximity of Jesus. They had seen Jesus' healing and his miracles. They had heard his teachings, but yet they had not become like Jesus and their heart for others.”
26s
#MakeTimeForPeople
“Most of most of us, we don't we don't write in our schedule. Okay. I need some time to love people today, to care for people. We don't schedule that in. The idea is as we're going and god gives us opportunities and those interruptions that we love people, that we stop and we see the person. We miss people because we're too busy.”
