#KnowHisVoice
“When Lydia was just a baby, we were at a church and they had a a speaker in the nursery, and, that that allowed the nursery workers to listen to the sermon on Sunday morning. And one Sunday, I happened to be preaching at this church, and Lydia was in the nursery. And when I started preaching, my voice came over the speaker, and she started saying, dada, dada, dada. She couldn't see me. She had no idea what I was preaching about. But she knew that voice. That's what happens every time you open the Bible. And that's just not that's not just the New Testament. That's the Old Testament too. Yes, books like Jeremiah. Right? That you're hearing a voice you were made to know. The voice of the living god.”

“A man is not above reproach, his leadership will ultimately harm the church. He must be a husband of one wife. Literally, word is a one woman man. And so that points to all emotional and sexual purity that needs to occur. You must be sober minded, and at its core, it means being clear minded, free from excessive passion, free from uncontrolled emotion. Self controlled, the life that is disciplined, balanced, and steady inside and out. Respectable, a life that is well ordered, leads his household spiritually, provides for the family faithfully, manages time, money, and responsibilities wisely, is dependable, and others can count on him to keep his word.”

#CalledAndEquipped
“Whatever god's calling you today to do, I wanna encourage you for a moment. You don't have to be afraid. You may not have everything you need right now in this moment. Jeremiah didn't. I don't know how to speak. What did god do? God gave gave him the words. Maybe it's a difficult situation at work. Maybe it's parenting. Maybe it's this challenging season that you're going through. But god knows exactly what he's asked you to do, and he knows exactly what you're gonna need and the moment you're gonna need it. See, god never calls you without equipping you, and he never sends you without going with you.”

#StandOnTheWord
“Sometimes we feel like the world around us is shaking. Jeremiah knew that feeling. But when our world is shaking, god has given us to play a place to stand. We stand on the word of god. Because his word cannot fail. Has god given you an impossible mission this week? Jeremiah had one. It'd be tough. But unlike the the messages and the TV shows, god's word word is not going to self destruct in five seconds. That's the good news.”
32s
#BoldAsALion
“Never let a lion turn into excuse. The sluggard says, Oh, this is too hard. I'm going back to bed. Faith says, this might be hard, but I know my God is with me. That's why Proverbs says, the righteous are as bold as the lion. The righteous, the people of faith, the men and women of faith. We are as bold as a lion. We don't rise up because we believe in ourselves. We rise up because we believe in God.”
36s
#SavedIntoRelationship
“Jesus doesn't just save us from the punishment we deserve. He saves us into a relationship with God. A life of joy, a life of peace. Yes, a life doing hard things because God calls us to hard things. He calls us to make a difference in this world. And so wherever you're at right now, whether you're hurting or you're afraid or you feel like something is missing in your life, you just want that courage that comes from a relationship with God, I wanna invite you to call on him today.”
45s
#CourageByFaith
“Maybe it's a project that you still haven't got to. Maybe there a decision that you've delayed or a change that god wants to do in your life. A lion looks different for all of us. But somewhere along the way, we're all gonna face a lion. And when you do, I want you to remember this. The courage, biblical courage is a matter of faith. And faith doesn't eliminate our lions. Faith gives us the courage to face our lions.”
64s
#SurrenderAllToJesus
“Tom Brady stood on the top of the world asking, is this it? He was looking for more. This rich young ruler, he was searching for more too. He wanted to find eternal life. How do I get eternal life? Here's what Jesus showed us today. Your good isn't good enough. Must surrender everything and follow Jesus. Eternal life is impossible for us, but possible for God. So what are you holding onto? What has a stronger grip on your heart today than Jesus? Whatever that is, let it go. Hey. No regrets. Let's leave leave here saying that today. No regrets. Because everything this world offers us is temporary. But Jesus is worth everything.”
52s
#GraceThroughFaith
“What did god do? God sent his son, Jesus. Jesus lived the perfect life. You and I could never live. He died on the cross for our sins. He shed his blood for our forgiveness. And three days later, he rose in glory. He rose in victory. Today, Jesus is alive. And we have the same opportunity that this rich young ruler had. But you and I don't have to walk away. We can come to Jesus Christ. How do I receive eternal life? The Bible's clear over and over again. It's by faith and trust in Jesus Christ. We're not saved by our goods works. We're saved by grace through faith.”
53s
#GraceForSinners
“There's a god who loves us. The truth is we all sin. We all fall short of his perfect standard. And sin separates us from god. And no one keeps god's commandments perfect. But no matter how hard we try, we'll never be good enough to earn a right standing with god, with man. It's impossible but not with god. What did god do? God sent his son, Jesus. Jesus lived the perfect life. You and I could never live. He died on the cross for our sins. He shed his blood for our forgiveness. And three days later, he rose in glory. He rose in victory. Today, Jesus is alive.”
