### Quotes for Outreach
1. "We need to be unafraid of being canceled. We should actually be prepared to be mistreated and hated for what we believe. It says here in John chapter 15 verses 18 through 25, if the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hates you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own, but because you are not of the world, you are not of the world." [36:54] (28 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
2. "Basically, what that is saying, what that means is that when you go outside and you look at the trees and you look at the stars and you look at the mountains, you look at the beautiful country that we live here in Maryland and Pennsylvania, you look at that, and there is no way you see that and think that that is somehow the God that is the God."

3. "We can choose to do one of two things in response to the fact that the world has gone nuts. We can try to hide away, hide our heads in the sand, stick our heads in the sand and try to insulate ourselves and our kids from the world, or we can do what God has called us to do and that is to boldly go out and proclaim the truth of Christ to anybody and everybody who will listen."

4. "We are called to share the gospel with everyone, not just the easy ones. And this means it's already hard enough, I understand, to do this evangelism thing. This is something that we're, that for a lot of us, we're just starting to learn to do, right? We're just starting to figure out how to do this. And now Pastor Justin is saying, yeah, listen, and God calls us to the hard ones, not just easy ones." [52:26] (28 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
5. "Sometimes the most loving thing you can do is look at somebody and say, hey, that's bad for you. You've got to stop that. If we see one of our kids, one of these precious kids that are out here, and they start running out into the street, we may scream and yell at them. We may scare them. They may not understand why they're being yelled at. They may feel threatened and hurt and upset and may need to find a safe space."

### Quotes for Members
1. "The first thing that we have to keep in the front of our mind as we're learning this morning is that we are to be unashamed of the gospel of Christ because it is the faith that we place in that gospel that brings us to salvation. That means that we're to be unafraid to identify as Christians, unafraid to share the gospel with people." [35:25] (21 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
2. "There are two types of ways that God reveals himself to us. He reveals himself to us naturally, and he reveals himself to us supernaturally. Right? So naturally and divine. And the one that we're reading about here is natural revelation. It says, For his invisible attributes, namely his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world and the things that have been made. So they are without excuse." [38:18] (29 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
3. "We are called to have hard conversations with those we are sharing the gospel with. Now you don't think that Jesus in talking to this woman at the well could have just done a miracle or said other things or done other things to give her the gospel and to see her say you. He didn't have to have that hard conversation about her husband, right? About how many husbands she had had, about the fact that she was now living with a man that was not her husband."

4. "We must worship in spirit and truth and I tell you that everything God tells us to do through scripture is an act of worship. That means our evangelism is an act of worship, our discipleship is an act of worship, our singing of hymns and praises is an act of worship, our devotional time in the bible is an act of worship, our prayers are an act of worship, our giving are an act of worship."

5. "It's not about how good we are or how good we present the gospel or how smart we are or how good we look or how well we dress. It's not about that. Because the Bible's clear that God does the work so that we don't get the credit for it, right? So that we can't boast. God does the work. All we have to do is be faithful to open our mouth. He will speak through us." [01:07:27] (22 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
