#UnplugForPrayer
“We have to make time for God. It's okay. Some some say, hey, man. I pray and listen to the bible all the way to work. Awesome. Keep doing that. But I encourage you, stop at some point in your day and give him ten minutes, fifteen minutes. Give him time that belongs only to him. Not with the phone. Because I I know in my house, if my wife's talking to me and I'm and I'm only like, I'm only gonna be paying attention to her when I got my phone in my hand and I can pay attention to something else at the same time, we're gonna have problems. And so I'm telling you this because the power of taking time to pursue truth and allow truth to permeate you has valuable effects on your entire life.”

#CharacterOverAppearance
“``Alright. Moving forward. Number three, character over up appearance. Character over appearance. For us to move the mission of Jesus forward, what people see in person has to be as powerful spiritually on the person that you present yourself to be on Instagram. I love a good Instagram photo with a coffee and espresso with the steam coming off of it and the and the bible open, and it looks really spiritual. I also love those moments. Like, it's legit. There's nothing wrong with posting that unless that's not who you really are. We have to be real. We have to we have to not just look like we're legit. We have to actually be legit. We have to actually practice what we preach.”

#AuthenticityOverImage
“If we if we say we're gonna value character over appearance, then we have to be who we say we are even when no one is looking. We have to decide that when the bible says something, we're gonna hold on to that. We're gonna live by that truth. When the bible says we are crucified with Christ, it means that our life with Jesus is a sacrificial one. When the bible says, if you claim to be religious, but you can't bridle your tongue or you can't get control of your tongue, you're full of crap. That's my translation. It says you you deceive yourselves. If you say you're a follower of Jesus and there are scriptures that are like, that's negotiable. We have to be more legit than that. We have to be authentic. We have to pursue truth over comfort, people over preference, character over appearance.”

#DailyScripturePractice
“Do you have this lesson? One more thing. It is your responsibility to know what truth is. It is my responsibility to point it to to point you to it once a week. It's not enough. You gotta join a life group. We'll talk about that in a minute, but you you need to daily be in the truth. You need to daily be in the scriptures reading, daily be seeking God in prayer. And I don't wanna be legalistic, but I'm telling you that you will grow if you give him time. You will grow if you read your bible and pray every day. It's not just the old Sunday school song we used to sing. And it's it's not a matter of checking something off our list. It's a matter of interacting with the one we say is our boss.”

#KingdomOpposition
“And anytime that you begin moving the kingdom of forward sorry, the kingdom of God forward, you're encroaching on his territory. And so if you if you surrendered to God and you're like, man, everything seems to be, like, backwards and against me and things are, like, difficult and that doesn't mean you need to change course. It might mean that you've gotten into enemy territory and you're taking fire. And so when God leads you to do something for the kingdom and you begin moving into new areas, opposition is realistic is a realistic expectation.”

#OnTheEnemyRadar
“Opposition is felt by the entire church. If you begin if you surrender your life to God, you make him your boss, and you begin you decide, hey. I want to move the mission of God forward. God, how do I move that forward in my family, in my workplace, in my school, in my, in my community? How do I do that in my church? You are now on the target list of the devil because there's an enemy of the kingdom of God, and that'd be the kingdom of Satan. Now I know some of you are like, I just can we just call it darkness? There's a there's an actual person who has a target on your back.”

#PowerInCommunity
“The power of the church is the people. The power of the church is the people. It's not the pastor. It's not the worship pastor, not the youth pastor, not the children's pastor. It's the people. We are a family. The power exists in your surrendering to the holy spirit. Now, how does that power get moved from one person to another? How does that power get shared and increased? By living in community, by doing life together. He says we shared not only the good news, but our lives as well.”
42s
#ForgivenessOverBitterness
“People are a priority. Can I tell you those who are hurt by the church? God's plan for the church is not silly church people. Whatever you experienced, whatever you experienced, God can use it, but you don't have to allow that to be a part of your life anymore. You don't have to allow that to control your thoughts and your emotions anymore. We've gotta move forward. We've gotta be ready and and move forward in forgiveness instead of bitterness. Doesn't mean you guys have to go off skipping into the sunset. Set healthy boundaries, forgive, and move on. Right?”
74s
#LawGuidesFreedom
“So we continue. Here's the thing. The law was not created to burden people. The law was created to create structure, to create guidance, and the scriptures weren't created to enslave you and ensnare you and and hold you down and restrict you. Truth of the scriptures are to give us freedom because and I just need someone to back me up here. If you go down the path long enough living your own truth, you know where that leads to, and that is slavery. That is I'm just saying, that is the consequences of what foolish things you've done, and I'm not gonna go into lots of details here because we got a ton of kids here. But can you please fill in the blanks? Have you ever lived long enough going the other direction apart from the truth? They're saying this is my truth apart from God's truth that you can say, yeah. I've got some dysfunction now that came from that decision then. Anyone can just say it. Don't.”
67s
#JesusLifesaver
“And so Jesus is doing this because he doesn't even know he can't swim in the deep end of faith. Shallow faith can fool you. Can we also point out the fact that the experts in the law who had no depth in their faith called Jesus what did they a good teacher. Right? They call him a teacher. Naming Jesus as a teacher doesn't give him any saving power. He can't be your life preserver if he's just telling you from the sidelines some good things to live by. But if Jesus jumps into the pool with you, and that's what he did when he came to Earth, and he would he would risk he gave his life to saviors, is a lifesaver, not just a teacher.”
