### Quotes for Outreach

1. "The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. The path that the Lord leads us to, the calling over here, leads to life and life more abundant. Sometimes we don't always answer. And I weep. I wept. Because I was like, wow. We don't have time to play around, church. they tell us that we should keep quiet. I'm not even going to get into the Olympics. We're not going to talk about that. That's a whole other sermon, pastor. I'll let pastor preach that one maybe. So if the devil's loudly calling, shouldn't the church be calling as well?"

2. "There's somebody praying right now. Somebody that you are going to come into contact with. Someone that the Lord is going to use you to speak to. Because the call, the call that we have, the call that we have is to join in the call that the Lord has to the rest of the world. And I know we have so much fun. We love hanging. We love hanging out with each other. We love doing events. We love doing functions as a church. But there's a community out there that's in pain, that's hurting. Needs to see the love of Jesus Christ." [16:23] (43 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

3. "Every time somebody comes up to me and talks to me, I'm like, wow, Lord, thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord, that you count me worthy to serve your kingdom, that you count me as a worthy ambassador, that someone's going to come to me, and ask about the word. And some of us say, well, well, well, I didn't go to school. Guess what? Just like that boy had five loaves and three fishes, and they were trying to feed 5,000 people, Jesus was like, what do you got? What do you got? Bring it to me. Just bring him what you got. Bring to the conversation what you have." [24:01] (34 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

I've never had a parking ticket. That's a testimony, y'all. What? Praise God. Thank you, Jesus. That's great. Man, you grew up in church. You stuck with the faith. You're still in the truth.

### Quotes for Members

1. "How many know that you're called? Who's called in the house? We're all called by God. Not only, watch this, watch this. Not only are we called to serve God, we're called to marriage as well. Amen? That's a calling, Brother Lance. That's a real calling. To be faithful to your wife. That is the first ministry of every single man. Our first ministry is our wives. That's the first ministry. Then children. Amen? That is a calling as well from God. But every single one of us, every single one of us are called to serve Christ in one form or fashion."

2. "The person that came here yesterday and cooked all those pizzas and brought them in here, that was a calling. The brother that helped me blow the parking lot free of all the water balloons we threw at each other yesterday, that was a calling. We're all called today. We do some form of ministry for the Lord. So I know some of you guys didn't raise your hand. That's okay. When Moses was called at the burning bush, he had a stuttering problem. He didn't think he was called either. But the Lord called him."

3. "Philip accepted the call, went where he was called, and did something. And it was only one person that he was called to. And later on in the chapter, it says that when the Ethiopian eunuch came up out of the water, that Philip was just gone. He just disappeared. Praise God. I wish we could do that now, Pastor. We could just, like, all right, y'all, I'm going. I'm going to Ethiopia tomorrow. Boom, and I'm there. Teleport. Yeah, praise God. That'll be nice. God says we have cars and stuff now for that. But he just disappeared. We don't know where he went." [12:20] (34 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

4. "Philip opened the Ethiopian eunuch's eyes by teaching. Ananias did it by praying. The scales fall off Paul's eyes. Jonah did it by preaching. But whether by teaching, preaching, or praying, it's all vocal. It's us bringing to life the word of God wherever we're at. So many times we say, well, just come to my church. Come to my church. I'll share you the Facebook link. Come to my church. I'll give you the pastor's number. What about your number? They might not want to come to church until they see the church in you."

5. "Sometimes the fear of failing keeps us from stepping out to what the Lord has called us to do. Sometimes we say, oh, it's too late for me. I'm too old. God does not see any of that. God will use you. There's no retirement in the kingdom. I know a group that used to come and volunteer in the prison over at Avon Park. We called them the Maranatha Boys. The oldest one was 93. He came in every single week at 93 years old. Huh? 93? And y'all are complaining because you're 35 and your back hurt? Come on now. Come on, y'all. We're never too old to accept the call of Christ."
