Jordan has rejoiced system.
Heaven has come on.

9
00:07:33,400 --> 00:09:38,900
This is the best part.
About this moment of

10
00:09:38,900 --> 00:09:42,500
resurrection, and God came about
of the Grave with the Bible says

11
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:46,000
that the same power that raised
Jesus, from the grave is living

12
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,700
in you.
And this next song we're going

13
00:09:48,700 --> 00:09:52,900
to celebrate that that same God
raised him from the grave.

14
00:09:53,900 --> 00:09:57,800
He's alive and working today.
He has the power to change the

15
00:09:57,800 --> 00:12:06,000
power to grow.
I've got my own child.

16
00:13:16,900 --> 00:17:20,099
Your children, you are the same.
That's right.

17
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:26,200
Come on, let's give it a pig for
the same God, the god of

18
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,800
History, The God Who created it
all, you know, I love that line

19
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,100
in that song that references.
You know we just had the message

20
00:17:34,100 --> 00:17:39,500
on it a few weeks ago the I may
not face Goliath but I've got my

21
00:17:39,500 --> 00:17:41,600
own Giants.
Maybe you're feeling that today

22
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,500
maybe you're in a season right
now where you just feel like

23
00:17:44,500 --> 00:17:47,600
everywhere you turn you're
facing another giant.

24
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,800
But know this, the god That
created this whole thing, the

25
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,400
god of the Bible.
It's not just a book.

26
00:17:55,400 --> 00:18:00,400
Amen.
The god of history is in this

27
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,800
room with us right now, the
same.

28
00:18:04,900 --> 00:18:10,100
God is touching hearts in this
building right now.

29
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:13,500
And I know last week, man, we
were getting all on fire for our

30
00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:15,300
Kansas City Chiefs and that was
awesome.

31
00:18:15,300 --> 00:18:17,600
But can we get excited about
that?

32
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:22,600
Same God this morning, can you
let Him here today God is in

33
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,500
this place and if you don't know
him yet, that's okay.

34
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:28,400
I promise you this.
He wants to know you.

35
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,200
He wants to start that this
morning.

36
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,900
Amen.
Man!

00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:36,600

Well guys, it's all about souls

94
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,900
and a big part of it, too is
relationships righted.

95
00:21:40,900 --> 00:21:44,300
And this is kind of that season
that Valentine season, we really

96
00:21:44,300 --> 00:21:47,200
start thinking about
relationships and maybe going a

97
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,600
little bit.
It deeper than what we post on

98
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,500
social media, right?
It's always easy.

99
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:54,600
When you're having the good hair
day, you went to the really cool

100
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,100
date night spot.
So you got the selfie the

hair to part, you know, we get
that right.

103
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,600
But relationships aren't always
what we throw out there on

104
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,200
Instagram, are they?

00:23:43,500 --> 00:23:46,000
end I was like we're not passing
that around right it's gonna get

142
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,900
weird right maybe but today's
gonna be really special as well,

tonight.

144
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,800

We've been waiting for a place
of our own just a place.

151
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,000
Boo looking for, we set out
place, not only to do ministry

152
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,300
and serve the community, but a
place for our youth and that

153
00:24:16,300 --> 00:24:18,300
made it really tricky to find a
spot.

154
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:21,400
And so God loves to this place
and was working her tail off.

155
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,400

God's moving, right?
And people just are just curious

163
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,100
to see and I'm just believing
that for a next generation of

164
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:45,100
young people I'm a product of
youth, ministry product of Youth

165
00:24:45,100 --> 00:24:46,800
Camp.
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't

166
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,600
for God changing hearts in a
setting like that and so I would

167
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,800
encourage you as parents not to
take a back seat to this don't

168
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,300
show up tonight and go through
Carline.

169
00:24:54,300 --> 00:24:57,000
Drop the kids off, I would
encourage you to park the car,

170
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,900
get out and walk in that.
Space me some people and say a

171
00:25:01,900 --> 00:25:03,900
prayer.
Prayer for God to use a space.

172
00:25:03,900 --> 00:25:05,300
We're in a spiritual battle for
our teens.

173
00:25:05,300 --> 00:25:07,300
Amen.
And we're creating Warriors for

174
00:25:07,300 --> 00:25:09,700
the cause of Christ and bastarz.
The cause of Christ.

175
00:25:09,700 --> 00:25:12,300
People are mission driven that
can not only change their world,

176
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,800
but the world.
And so we take it dead serious.

177
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,400
And we're excited to see what
God's going to do.

178
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,100
And so be praying for our team
tonight.

179
00:25:19,300 --> 00:25:21,200
I'll be out there.
I know a lot of our staff teams

180
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,500
out there really, just to cheer
on the things of God.

181
00:25:24,500 --> 00:25:27,200
And so be praying, really for a
viable start and our young

182
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,500
people and it always starts.
They're done it.

183
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,500
The young at heart, I should
say, come on.

184
00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:33,600
Right.
And I'm excited for God's going

185
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,500
to do what we're launching this
week.

186
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:37,200
Was a Valentine's Day.
So we're launching a little

187
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,200
series on relationships, loves
in the air.

188
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,100
Come on somebody.
I don't hear any guys a story

189
00:25:42,100 --> 00:25:44,600
because you probably all I did
mirror all sick this week, so

190
00:25:45,100 --> 00:25:48,800
it'll kind of sideways, but, but
I'm encouraged to really speak

191
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,500
on this relationship goals.
We've done this series in the

192
00:25:51,508 --> 00:25:55,200
past, but we've dropped all the
content kept the logo, and wrote

193
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,100
a whole new series.
And we're look at really

194
00:25:57,100 --> 00:26:00,600
relationships in the Bible,
famous relationships, all across

195
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,300
the Bible that we can learn from
From both good and bad.

196
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:05,400
Amen.
There's two actually no

197
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,600
perforation the Bible outside of
the Father Son and the Holy

198
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,100
Spirit.
So we're looking at just flawed

199
00:26:10,100 --> 00:26:12,100
people in man.
I'll tell you what the Bible's

200
00:26:12,100 --> 00:26:14,500
more like a Jerry Springer
episode relationships.

201
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,700
I'm just telling you if the
proof of God's existence is how

202
00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:20,800
accurate.
And how really honest the Bible

203
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,500
is about people's lives.
And as a pastor, I see this so

204
00:26:23,500 --> 00:26:26,900
often people get stuck so easily
in their relationships.

205
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,100
It's like they fall in love and
maybe a mission to Christ

206
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:31,400
together.
They get your certain level, and

207
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,900
they plateau.
It's like a holding pattern like

208
00:26:33,900 --> 00:26:36,600
wash rinse, repeat, just kind of
floats to this level.

209
00:26:36,900 --> 00:26:40,100
It is stays there until
something changes either gets

210
00:26:40,100 --> 00:26:43,400
broken or it's built.
And it's so easy to get stuck

211
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:44,600
and I see it time and time
again.

212
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,100
Maybe it's just stuck because
you maybe change at kids and

213
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:49,900
your professional Uber driver
for your children.

214
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:54,000
Come all somebody.
Your the snack provider, there's

215
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:54,900
a lot of words you can put in
there.

216
00:26:54,900 --> 00:26:57,000
If you see a lot of memes,
right?

217
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,900
All the moms are laughing
because I know exactly what it

218
00:26:58,900 --> 00:27:02,000
looks like, right, it's really
easy to look around.

219
00:27:02,100 --> 00:27:06,200
Round and say, man, I wish I had
something else, it's easy to get

220
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,200
a spot where it just doesn't
feel like it's going anywhere.

221
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,000
The passion is gone, the
feelings of love of disappeared

222
00:27:12,100 --> 00:27:15,000
and looking at you like the
grass is greener over there.

223
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,300
Come on somebody and they got
the feels and maybe you see

224
00:27:18,300 --> 00:27:21,000
potential somewhere else and
it's easy to look out and just

225
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,300
maybe be a little jealous of
what you don't have.

226
00:27:23,300 --> 00:27:25,300
And I was going to give you a
little word today, and this

227
00:27:25,300 --> 00:27:27,800
isn't directly from the Bible is
acts for my dad.

228
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,900
So it's extra Bible all but he
always told me this said Son,

229
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,100
The grass always greener on the
septic tank.

230
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:38,900
Come on somebody.
Ya'll said the other side of the

231
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:43,100
fence so do the septic tank and
it's the truth, you know?

232
00:27:43,100 --> 00:27:44,400
In other words, it's really
simple.

233
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,800
If you don't like what you're
getting change, what you're

234
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,700
giving.
If the grass and your marriage

235
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:54,900
is withered and raw water, it
water your own grass.

236
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:57,500
Come on somebody.
If you got some weeds, get some

237
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:01,000
weed killer you know, change
some things, get some fat,

238
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,200
should maybe get that rake?
Out.

239
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,700
Do some hard work.
Come on, somebody water.

240
00:28:04,700 --> 00:28:07,000
Your own grass is so easy to
say, well, I wish I had this and

241
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,300
wish I had this, but yeah, bro,
you don't see what's beneath the

242
00:28:09,300 --> 00:28:11,000
surface, do you.
All right.

243
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Is a septic tank grown up.
Thank you, Dad for that, by the

244
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,000
way.
So, we should say this to him,

245
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,800
he doesn't come to church, but
he'll appreciate me saying this,

246
00:28:18,100 --> 00:28:19,700
but the good news is this.
You can look all throughout the

247
00:28:19,708 --> 00:28:22,800
Bible and you see relationships
and they're all broken.

248
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,800
They're all flawed.
And we can learn so much from

249
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,700
these people.
Let's think about some of the

250
00:28:27,708 --> 00:28:29,300
most famous relationships in the
Bible.

251
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:30,900
I think about Adam and Eve go
back.

252
00:28:30,900 --> 00:28:31,900
Go back to the very beginning,
right?

253
00:28:32,300 --> 00:28:36,400
These guys are imperfection.
They're made perfectly the way

254
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,100
God wanted to make of their knit
together.

255
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:40,800
A Believer made for each other
like you complete me.

256
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,200
I mean it's the perfect setup
and they're walking the cool,

257
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,300
the garden with with God himself
in the presence of God and then

258
00:28:46,300 --> 00:28:50,000
what happens Pride Wells up
right now, they start falling

259
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,000
into sin.
They were looking at this, they

260
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,200
touch the app on the phone to
send, and then they start doing

261
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,500
the blame game, right?
They have the OG fight, and the

262
00:28:56,508 --> 00:28:58,800
start yelling at each other.
And then I start blaming God and

263
00:28:58,900 --> 00:29:01,900
the serpent all the stuff, and
then they basically get evicted.

264
00:29:02,100 --> 00:29:05,100
While somebody the first couple
of Bible gets evicted from the

265
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:05,900
garden.
Right ever?

266
00:29:05,900 --> 00:29:08,800
Thought about that, they put the
cherubim and six wings and it's

267
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,800
Garden the East Side.
The guard is a flaming sword.

268
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,300
I mean you talk about Jerry
Springer episode very first

269
00:29:13,300 --> 00:29:15,500
couple to Puli messes it up,
right?

270
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,400
Then you got Adam and Sarah and
that a promise that they have a

271
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:22,100
son and be a father of a great
nation and really they were side

272
00:29:22,100 --> 00:29:25,200
about all his newlyweds are
maybe, you know, the prophecy

273
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,400
off your life, your side about
things of God but the timing

274
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,500
wasn't right.
Maybe grew impatient and so

275
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,100
Sarah says, hey, here's this.
Servant Hagar will have a child

276
00:29:34,100 --> 00:29:35,300
through her basis.
God's Will.

277
00:29:35,300 --> 00:29:37,900
And they talk themselves into
the dumbest stuff, don't they?

278
00:29:37,900 --> 00:29:39,900
It changed the course of
history.

279
00:29:40,300 --> 00:29:42,000
I want you to think about some
of the other couples in the

280
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,000
Bible.
You have Jose and Gomer.

281
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:47,200
It was a who's married to Gomer,
who cheats on going to?

282
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,100
This is Gomer Gomer or she-go
Retreat, San Jose, and gomers a

283
00:29:50,100 --> 00:29:52,900
prostitute.
And it's just picture of God's

284
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:56,100
grace for us, waiting on us, and
hosea's waiting for gonna come

285
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:59,100
back and it's a picture of grace
and mercy, but isn't messed up

286
00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:01,600
relationship.
Do talk about Jacob and Rachel.

287
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,900
I mean, This is Love at First
Sight, right?

288
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,600
I'm he saw he saw Rachel and
he's like, I've got to be with

289
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,000
Rachel and so his father-in-law
promised her fall in love

290
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,800
promises, his fellow promises
seven years you work for me and

291
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,300
you have Rachel coercion fulfill
his promise he gives older

292
00:30:15,300 --> 00:30:18,900
sister when be fair, you know,
if Leah wasn't, you know, had a

293
00:30:18,900 --> 00:30:20,500
spouse.
And so Works, another seven

294
00:30:20,500 --> 00:30:22,200
years.
So it's guys wronged and

295
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,100
mistreated boy.
He must love that.

296
00:30:24,100 --> 00:30:27,500
Girl, come on somebody, right 14
years, he works for her hand.

297
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:30,700
You think about Joseph and Mary?
I mean, you might not think

298
00:30:30,700 --> 00:30:33,400
about their couple with this.
But you think about this the

299
00:30:33,408 --> 00:30:38,200
Holy Spirit, overshadows Mary?
She conceives, Jesus and Joseph

300
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,200
is kind of bewildered, like,
what am I supposed to do?

301
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,700
This makes no sense in the
angel, Comforts them.

302
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:46,000
And Joseph, accepts a plan of
God, and Joseph.

303
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,400
You may not consider him this,
but he becomes one of the

304
00:30:48,408 --> 00:30:52,000
greatest examples of a
stepfather and all of history.

305
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,300
Amen.
You may never thought Joseph.

306
00:30:54,300 --> 00:30:58,400
As a stepdad, this not his kid
but he raised him as if his own

307
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,700
kid.
It's incredible to see what God

308
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:02,600
can do through broken families.
Amen.

309
00:31:02,900 --> 00:31:05,100
And so if your family's a Jerry,
Springer a little bit, come on

310
00:31:05,100 --> 00:31:06,900
somebody, you're in good
company.

311
00:31:06,900 --> 00:31:09,100
Amen.
Because all the stories in the

312
00:31:09,100 --> 00:31:11,600
Bible, have Brokenness their
stories that people wouldn't

313
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,700
have written.
Which is why I love the Bible

314
00:31:13,700 --> 00:31:16,400
because there's no way that any
human would have said, hey, this

315
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,900
is my jacked-up Family.
Come on somebody.

316
00:31:17,900 --> 00:31:19,700
Right.
This is the first reality TV

317
00:31:19,700 --> 00:31:20,800
show.
No one was seven.

318
00:31:21,100 --> 00:31:23,000
So good news for your days,
you've been divorced.

319
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,500
Come on somebody.
And oftentimes, you know, Church

320
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:27,000
you like Manuel.
It's about marriage and

321
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,400
Perfection, all this stuff.
But if you've had the struggle,

322
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,600
right, if you've been in the
messy middle, if you've been

323
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,600
down the road, maybe you're
stuck in counseling and things

324
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,800

And you don't know what to do,

325
00:31:37,900 --> 00:31:38,500

Good company.
Amen.

Or maybe you've been together

328
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,400
Maybe you're not married, just
cohabitating.

329
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,200
Well, guess what?
The Bible has worked for you to,

330
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,800

Maybe you're fighting for that

331
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,100
affection, or the attention of
that lady, or that guy and you

332
00:31:53,100 --> 00:31:55,200

you feel unlovable.
Maybe you're as young person or

maybe in a relationship, you're
taking advantage of, maybe you

00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,400
feel incomplete, you feel
broken.

345
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,800
You feel like you're not whole

346
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,400
that God can use you.
Amen.

347
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,800
Maybe you're the person who's
committed adultery and

348
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,600
Relationship, or maybe the
person that's been cheated on,

349
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,900

maybe you start out well, and
you're not in for things of

351
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,700
Christ, and then the hard
Seasons came, right?

352
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,600
The drought came.
The kids came, all the

353
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,200
financials changed and you're
going to season just struggling

354
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,300
in your own strength, in your
own power.

355
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,800
Maybe the season is no longer
Netflix and chill.

356
00:32:52,300 --> 00:32:54,800
Maybe it's just Netflix.
Come on somebody right.

357
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,400
Your marriage has got a little
cold in the intimacy is turned

358
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,400
into this TV.
Come on, sounds familiar for so

359
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,600
many people, right?
If your Anything but nuclear or

360
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,200
feels like it could go nuclear.
This message is for you.

361
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,800
Amen.
We all can relate to this

362
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,700
message, right.
This is all about the Bible.

363
00:33:10,700 --> 00:33:12,300
The Bible is not a fairytale,
amen.

364
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,800
My fact, Diane said this was so
great.

365
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,300
The Bible is better than a
fairytale ending.

366
00:33:17,700 --> 00:33:18,900
Have you read the end of the
book?

367
00:33:19,300 --> 00:33:21,600
Do you see how much God loved us
to son?

368
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,300
Jesus for us man?
Did it?

369
00:33:23,300 --> 00:33:25,100
You can't doesn't get better
than this.

370
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:28,000
I mean, nobody could have come
up with the creativity and the

371
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,700
power and all of a substance and
plans for the Jesus to come for

372
00:33:31,700 --> 00:33:33,900
us and died on the cross for our
sins.

373
00:33:34,100 --> 00:33:36,200
Here's the reality.
God is less interested in where

374
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,000
you've been is Maura.
Austin, where you going to go

375
00:33:39,100 --> 00:33:41,300
today?
Amen, he's more interested in

376
00:33:41,308 --> 00:33:44,000
where we going today.
It is so easy to look back in

377
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,400
the rearview mirror and say, oh,
I'm not this, and this could be

378
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,800
like this and your Harbor
bitterness and unforgiveness all

379
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,000
these things.
You look down yourself, but the

380
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,100
reality is God's more concerned
about the direction your heart.

381
00:33:54,100 --> 00:33:56,600
Today, he's more concerned,
we're gonna go walk today.

382
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,300
He's more concerned now, how you
came in this room, but how you

383
00:33:59,308 --> 00:34:00,600
going to leave this room?
Amen.

384
00:34:01,100 --> 00:34:02,900
He's more concerned about where
you're going.

385
00:34:03,100 --> 00:34:05,100
Are you falling in love with him
or going to humble yourself

386
00:34:05,100 --> 00:34:07,600
before God or you're going to
keep up the old man and keeps

387
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,900
Adding your own power.
And so today, I'm going to call

00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,800
together in this thing called
life is.

401
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,500
Our marriages are fighting for
the things of Christ together

402
00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:51,600
and not each other.
Yeah, I pray, you strip us from

403
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:57,400
the words of I and me, and mine,
and fear, and shame, and guilt,

404
00:34:57,700 --> 00:35:01,900
and insecurity and pride.
And God, we would change our

405
00:35:01,900 --> 00:35:03,200
words into the fruit of the
spirit.

406
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,900
God, you know, patience and
meekness and gentleness and our

407
00:35:06,900 --> 00:35:10,000
marriage being To the picture of
what it is to be Christ in the

408
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,700
church.
And so, we love each.

409
00:35:11,700 --> 00:35:14,100
Other as Christ loved us.
We forgive each other as Christ.

410
00:35:14,100 --> 00:35:16,100
Forgave us.
And we have a new season of

411
00:35:16,100 --> 00:35:18,800
intimacy, a new season of being
a picture of the things through

412
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,700
Christ, for our family and for a
watching world.

413
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,900
And I pray this in Jesus name
and his power, we all pray and

414
00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:27,700
say, Amen.
Well today we're going to go

415
00:35:27,707 --> 00:35:30,300
back to the OG.
We're going to go back to Adam

416
00:35:30,300 --> 00:35:32,700
and Eve, look at the first
relationship and really

417
00:35:32,700 --> 00:35:36,700
Perfection into Brokenness.
And so we're going to just walk

418
00:35:36,700 --> 00:35:39,600
through this story and It's so
powerful and I would encourage

419
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,000
you to a for you jump in.
If you haven't noticed, we live

420
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,400
in digging into the Bible.
This year, we've been doing

421
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,300
basically, it's basically a
chapter of the Bible.

422
00:35:47,300 --> 00:35:49,900
We're going through people's
stories and just make it a Bible

423
00:35:49,900 --> 00:35:51,200
come alive.
So I would encourage you, when

424
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,300
you come out to Real Life Church
to bring your Bible, come on.

425
00:35:54,300 --> 00:35:58,500
Somebody to get into the word of
God, I'm a prolific Note Taker,

426
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:00,600
because I'll have a good memory.
I'm middle-aged now.

427
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,700
Come on somebody, I just forgot
what happened.

428
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:05,700
So, I had to write it down by
love taking notes in the margin.

429
00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:08,100
The Bible's, if you have users,
reverse, Mobile app.

430
00:36:08,100 --> 00:36:09,800
Who uses the YouVersion?
Bible out, by the way.

431
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:13,000
Some guys use that, okay?
That's also just a great thing.

432
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,900
You can take notes and save them
but I'm always going back and

433
00:36:15,900 --> 00:36:16,900
go.
Okay, God, what did you say

434
00:36:16,900 --> 00:36:18,100
there?
And I'm praying over the

435
00:36:18,100 --> 00:36:19,600
message, I'm rethinking the
questions.

436
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,300
I'm so I'm just encourage you to
get into the word of God and be

437
00:36:22,300 --> 00:36:24,500
people of the book.
Come on somebody, right?

438
00:36:24,700 --> 00:36:26,600
I want people to come here and
just hear the word of God.

439
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,700
I want you to get into it.
I'm a visual person.

440
00:36:28,700 --> 00:36:31,000
So I have to ride it out and
that's how I remember things.

441
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,600
So Genesis chapter 2, we're
going to dive in a little bit

442
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,600
3:20 says this but for Adam no
suitable.

443
00:36:37,700 --> 00:36:40,700
Well, who knows suitable helper.
No suitable.

444
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:42,700
Helper was found.
He was looking come all

445
00:36:42,700 --> 00:36:44,500
somebody.
I mean he was like nope.

446
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:47,400
Nope, nope, nope, come on, God,
come on guy.

447
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,400
And so Lord, God caused the man
to fall into deep sleep.

448
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,700
And while I was sleeping, he
took one of the man's ribs and

449
00:36:52,700 --> 00:36:56,100
closed up the place of Flesh.
The Lord God made a woman from

450
00:36:56,100 --> 00:36:58,000
the rib.
He had taken the man, I love

451
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:05,000
this, he brought her to the man.
Come on somebody, this is the

452
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,700
original picture, the original
Gender reveal party.

453
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:11,500
Come on somebody.
Right.

454
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,100
I don't know how it went down.
Like close your eyes.

455
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:18,200
We're going to count down from 3
through 11.

456
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,400
Right.
I mean what would that be like,

457
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:26,500
right?
Unless you jump down behind it,

458
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,100
I don't know how this one down,
right?

459
00:37:28,100 --> 00:37:30,300
I don't know how wet but but
Adam this is where he says this

460
00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:32,400
is amazing.
I love this verse 23 but the man

461
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,400
said this is now bone of my bone
and Flesh of My Flesh.

462
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,900
Come on somebody.
I've been looking for her.

463
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,000
Go God, come on somebody, right?
He was so excited and she should

464
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,400
be called woman.
Come on somebody.

465
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,500
Whoa, man, that's the original
jug right for?

466
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:50,700
She was taken out of, man, I
don't the first words of Adam

467
00:37:51,300 --> 00:37:52,800
Were to Eve.
I'm not really sure how that

468
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,600
went down but maybe with
something like this.

469
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:59,700
How you doing right?
Or I don't know you know you are

470
00:37:59,700 --> 00:38:02,300
a part of me come on somebody.
Alright that's terrible.

471
00:38:02,300 --> 00:38:04,200
Dad joke.
Alright moving on first 14.

472
00:38:05,700 --> 00:38:07,300
Not still good.
I use that I'm using next.

473
00:38:07,300 --> 00:38:08,700
Gal, let me tell I'm not getting
rid of ads.

474
00:38:08,700 --> 00:38:11,600
Good verse 24.
This is why a man leaves his

475
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,800
father and mother and they're
like, what in the world is the

476
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,100
father and mother, right?
They've never had a father or

477
00:38:16,100 --> 00:38:20,900
mother said happened and is what
helped me out and is everybody

478
00:38:20,900 --> 00:38:26,800
say United United, this is the
word that this is the word.

479
00:38:26,900 --> 00:38:31,100
This word United is really the
ultimate definition of a

480
00:38:31,100 --> 00:38:33,500
relationship.
This is the definition of

481
00:38:33,500 --> 00:38:38,000
marriage United.
Together United to his wife and

482
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,300
they the two of them became one
flesh.

483
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,700
They don't forget.
This is so cool.

484
00:38:42,700 --> 00:38:46,800
Yeah, check this out.
Adam and Eve were perfectly made

485
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,800
for each other.
Don't miss this.

486
00:38:50,100 --> 00:38:52,800
They were perfectly designed for
each other.

487
00:38:52,900 --> 00:38:55,800
In every way, every sense of the
word they were physically

488
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,400
designed for each other.
Amen.

489
00:38:59,700 --> 00:39:01,500
Amen.
Hallelujah praise God Almighty,

490
00:39:01,700 --> 00:39:04,900
right?
Glad that works out right there,

491
00:39:04,900 --> 00:39:07,400
emotionally that together for
each other.

492
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,900
Amen.
I'm here more guys and ladies

493
00:39:09,900 --> 00:39:10,800
loud.
That's kind of weird.

494
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,200
Right guys.
Like a men.

495
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,200
They're just keeping up face at
this point, right?

496
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,100
I mean, they were spiritually
made for each other that they

497
00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:21,600
were helpers to each other.
God knew exactly what he's

498
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,500
doing.
When he created Adam and Eve and

499
00:39:23,500 --> 00:39:27,200
putting together as one flesh no
longer their mission or I mean

500
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,300
her Mission his mission but it's
their mission.

501
00:39:29,500 --> 00:39:33,000
Oh, Christ, in their to follow
Jesus together, the United

502
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,500
together, you know, God created
you to be United together with

503
00:39:35,500 --> 00:39:37,600
your spouse.
He created you to be knives

504
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,200
together in your relationship.
You're not supposed to war

505
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,300
against each other, you know?
Get in the same Foxhole and then

506
00:39:43,300 --> 00:39:46,200
just shoot your companion and
shoot your teammate in the

507
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,300
Foxhole.
Amen.

508
00:39:47,700 --> 00:39:50,500
That we're fighting a common
enemy were taking ground from

509
00:39:50,500 --> 00:39:51,900
the enemy.
We're fighting for a thanks to

510
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:55,000
God for a family to have a
common purpose and a common

511
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,900
heartbeat through night and
intimacy.

512
00:39:56,900 --> 00:40:00,000
It's no longer my will and
Diane's will but it's Our will

513
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,700
towards the things of Christ.
Amen.

514
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,400
United together, but so many
marriages.

515
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:09,200
It's the opposite, isn't it?
It's divided is older, Unity.

516
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,800
It's untied, it's the opposite,
it's moving different

517
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,600
directions.
And instead of fighting comment,

518
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,300
me, they're fighting each other.
You see so many marriages that

519
00:40:17,300 --> 00:40:20,600
are stuck in division, really
stuck in coexisting.

520
00:40:21,100 --> 00:40:22,800
They may be married to May wear
a ring.

521
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,200
They may live in the same roof,
but they're anything, but

522
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,200
together there's different
televisions, different rooms,

523
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,900
different beds, different Plans
different bank accounts.

524
00:40:30,900 --> 00:40:33,300
Come on somebody I'm stepping on
somebody's toes in the hair.

525
00:40:33,300 --> 00:40:35,500
Hey I mean it's easy to get
there.

526
00:40:35,500 --> 00:40:38,700
Just go different directions for
some people, they're stuck in

527
00:40:38,700 --> 00:40:41,900
division, they're stuck in
collaboration, they're living

528
00:40:41,900 --> 00:40:43,800
together but they're not
co-workers for the cause of

529
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,900
Christ unite under the power of
Christ.

530
00:40:45,900 --> 00:40:51,000
Amen, it is so easy to just to
be together but not together and

531
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,100
marriage.
Not put together for the things

532
00:40:53,100 --> 00:40:55,300
of Christ, not of the power of
Christ.

533
00:40:55,300 --> 00:40:57,900
I don't know about you, but I
want Jesus as the foundation of

534
00:40:57,900 --> 00:40:59,000
this relationship.
Amen.

535
00:40:59,500 --> 00:41:01,000
If you're going to follow me,
you're going to be sorely

536
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:06,100
disappointed as looking for some
amens, but she tried to burn her

537
00:41:06,100 --> 00:41:10,300
throats been her, and she's
like, So he marriages are stuck

538
00:41:10,300 --> 00:41:13,000
in control.
It's a control freak so I'm both

539
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,800
sides instead of complement each
other.

540
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,300
They're trying to control the
relationship and they're upset

541
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:19,200
with their spouse because they
don't do certain things.

542
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,300
They chew too loud, right?
The TV is too loud.

543
00:41:22,300 --> 00:41:24,500
This is missing this and there's
fighting all the time about

544
00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:26,300
everything.
You know think of Paula Abdul,

545
00:41:26,300 --> 00:41:27,400
right?
She was like half right

546
00:41:27,500 --> 00:41:30,800
Opposites Attract, but they also
attack come on somebody and they

547
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,300
just don't copy each other very
well, it's receive divorces so

548
00:41:33,300 --> 00:41:35,400
often.
The first 3 7, 10 years of

549
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,000
marriage.
You had those hard yards, you're

550
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:38,500
starving kids and things are
different.

551
00:41:38,500 --> 00:41:40,900
And You don't quite understand
your spouse and more, but God

552
00:41:40,900 --> 00:41:44,900
put you together, amen.
That you complete me, right?

553
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,500
Like opposites.
But they fill in the voids dude,

554
00:41:48,500 --> 00:41:50,700
you don't want to Pete, you just
feel like so obtuse.

555
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,900
Like you have to have your, your
spouse with you.

556
00:41:52,900 --> 00:41:56,200
Is kind of takes off round the
edges on the women.

557
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,200
All the women said, amen.
Right.

558
00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,600
Round off the edge of those
been, right?

559
00:41:59,900 --> 00:42:03,200
This way, you Nia looks like
just as 25 to 25, says, this

560
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,500
atom is wife were both, what
helped me out.

561
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:12,100
Come on, somebody, ha ha Tony.
I love you.

562
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,700
I love you, buddy, so much.
I want to say right now, but I'm

563
00:42:14,700 --> 00:42:20,900
not and they felt no, no, shame.
This is what you need to look

564
00:42:20,900 --> 00:42:23,800
like.
Literally that they were naked,

565
00:42:23,900 --> 00:42:26,500
they didn't realize is that
there's a flaws and Perfections.

566
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:30,400
They didn't see fear or shame.
They were naked and they had no

567
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,300
shame in their life.
It was kinda like they look down

568
00:42:32,300 --> 00:42:35,600
in the reflection of the of the
water like Simba, right?

569
00:42:35,700 --> 00:42:37,700
Right?
They saw themselves and they

570
00:42:37,700 --> 00:42:40,600
said I am fearfully and
wonderfully.

571
00:42:40,700 --> 00:42:42,500
Made hallelujah.
Praise God.

572
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:44,600
Whoa, look at that reflection,
baby.

573
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:48,300
Yes.
Or like none of you did that,

574
00:42:48,300 --> 00:42:52,600
right?
Dude, we put makeup to cover up.

575
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,900
Come on somebody, right?
So I make, we have make it

576
00:42:54,900 --> 00:42:57,300
better.
We gonna hide this, we got to

577
00:42:57,308 --> 00:42:58,400
make this.
We have lose this.

578
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,300
We got to put that girl on.
We all these things right to

579
00:43:00,300 --> 00:43:04,000
make ourselves look.
The girl.

580
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,700
What can I say?
Here's what here's the bottom

581
00:43:09,700 --> 00:43:11,400
line.
They're unhindered.

582
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:13,000
Exhibitionist for the cause of
Christ.

583
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:14,600
Come on.
Somebody that's Lou what.

584
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:18,500
This verse says, naked unashamed
men that they're they just knew

585
00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:20,400
who they were in Christ.
They didn't have any other

586
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,100
worries and their fear and their
life.

587
00:43:22,100 --> 00:43:24,800
In this Utopia are people called
Perfection this Age of

588
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,500
Innocence.
The sagely Garden of Eden.

589
00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:30,000
This moment in time that really
didn't exist my opinion, very

590
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,400
long if you think about this as
about the move from United to

591
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,100
untied pretty quickly and the
reason you can speculate this is

592
00:43:36,100 --> 00:43:38,400
because Adam and Eve.
Eve, they didn't have any kids

593
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,700
before the fall and I'm pretty
sure there was a habit.

594
00:43:40,700 --> 00:43:42,500
They weren't willing to give up,
come on somebody.

595
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,800
Hmm, so probably pretty quick.
It's probably a few months of

596
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,800
time here, where was all
perfect.

597
00:43:49,900 --> 00:43:53,000
So once you watch the shift from
shift, from Perfection to Broken

598
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,400
from Walking with God to hide it
from God, from eternal life to

599
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,300
dust.
This is how the first

600
00:43:59,300 --> 00:44:02,900
relationship goes, just a
chapter 3 says this in verse 1.

601
00:44:02,900 --> 00:44:05,200
Now, the serpent was more crafty
than any other wild animals, the

602
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,600
Lord God had made.
He said, the woman did God

603
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,100
really say, You must not eat
from any tree in the garden.

604
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:13,600
Then that crafty serpent is
putting that seed of doubt.

605
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,700
He just tugging away and eroding
at the truth of God's word.

606
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,000
And the woman said, the serpent,
we may eat from the trees in the

607
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,600
garden.
If you don't want the trees in,

608
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,100
the garden is a tree of life
that treat you find in

609
00:44:25,100 --> 00:44:27,600
Revelation the tree, eat the
fruit from and you continually

610
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,600
eat and live forever.
And so this tree was in the

611
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,100
garden, he from, but God did say
we must not eat from the tree

612
00:44:34,100 --> 00:44:36,100
that's in the middle of garden.
That tree, that's growing on a

613
00:44:36,107 --> 00:44:38,100
septic tank.
Come on somebody and you must

614
00:44:38,100 --> 00:44:41,100
not touch it, which is very
interesting or you'll die.

615
00:44:41,700 --> 00:44:44,900
And so it's not just you eat the
The fruit of this tree, it's

616
00:44:44,900 --> 00:44:46,700
actually even touched the fruit
of the tree.

617
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,800
You'll be cursed and die and you
will certainly not die.

618
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:55,600
So the circuit we need not
necessarily For God, knows, when

619
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,800
you eat from it, your eyes will
be opened and you'll be like,

620
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,100
God knowing good and evil the
appeals to her pride and says,

621
00:45:01,100 --> 00:45:03,900
you know, God's holding back on
you actually the grass is

622
00:45:03,900 --> 00:45:06,700
greener on the other side of
eating that fruit because he

623
00:45:06,707 --> 00:45:08,200
knows if you eat it, you can be
just like him.

624
00:45:08,300 --> 00:45:10,800
You're going to be more aware.
You have, some wisdom, your life

625
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:14,100
in had before you're gonna, you
have a different status in life.

626
00:45:14,100 --> 00:45:16,900
You eat from this tree.
So it's three is really good.

627
00:45:16,900 --> 00:45:19,600
Look at his fruits, amazing and
the woman saw the fruit.

628
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,500
Look at this, there's three
things she sees about this tree.

629
00:45:21,700 --> 00:45:24,100
It was good for food.
This could feel my body.

630
00:45:24,300 --> 00:45:26,800
You fill my stomach.
It's pleasing to the eye.

631
00:45:27,500 --> 00:45:30,400
I can look at it and know that
mean that is really, really

632
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,200
good-looking.
And also desirable for gaining

633
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:36,900
wisdom, that get my status will
change if I eat this fruit.

634
00:45:36,900 --> 00:45:39,300
And so she took some of it and
ate it.

635
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,600
Now, here's a lie.
Is that you see so far the lives

636
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,000
of sin, here it is.
I'm just going to take a quick

637
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,900
look.
Come on somebody.

638
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,800
You can look but you can't.
Look, but you can't touch, that

639
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,400
doesn't work.
Out, that doesn't work out.

640
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,500
She saw this fruit, and it lists
looks so good.

641
00:45:55,700 --> 00:45:59,000
She had to have a bite of this
fruit, it appealed to her

642
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,800
appetite and when it comes to
things of God, especially comes

643
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,200
with things of lust and sin.
You flee those things.

644
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:05,500
You don't fight those things,
amen.

645
00:46:05,900 --> 00:46:08,400
You like Joseph, you run out,
but naked when they grab that

646
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:10,500
rope, he has run out.
But naked, come on somebody.

647
00:46:10,900 --> 00:46:12,600
If you don't know the story,
you're like, IMA.

648
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,000
Look this up, pastor says some
butt-naked running, I'm gonna go

649
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,400
find it in the Bible.
Can we go find it somewhere in

650
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,600
here, right?
I mean, Think about this, it

651
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,700
wasn't, it was a sin to take the
fruit, you know?

652
00:46:24,300 --> 00:46:26,800
But it was it was temptation to
look at the fruit.

653
00:46:27,100 --> 00:46:28,600
It was tempted.
It's like putting yourself Right

654
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,100
In Harm's Way.
And so, just take a quick look.

655
00:46:31,100 --> 00:46:33,600
That's what the lion says.
I'm not hurting anybody.

656
00:46:33,700 --> 00:46:35,800
I can do what I want.
As I heard dude.

657
00:46:36,100 --> 00:46:40,800
She and he had me Rob's really
God and it changed the course of

658
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,200
all humanity.
And we live a life of sin, or

659
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,600
complacency or follow things of
ourselves.

660
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,400
What we do is our robin, our own
future and over so many people's

661
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:48,800
lives.
Heard.

662
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,400
Anybody it's like, dude, you're
hurting you.

663
00:46:50,700 --> 00:46:52,800
You heard your relationships.
You're hurting Generations,

664
00:46:52,900 --> 00:46:54,900
ahead of you mean, that fruit
looks really good on the

665
00:46:54,900 --> 00:46:56,400
outside.
Dude, that thing was welfare

666
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:57,700
Lies.
Come on somebody, I told you on

667
00:46:57,700 --> 00:46:58,700
the septic tank.
Right?

668
00:46:58,900 --> 00:47:00,600
Bell says this in Psalms, it
says a lips.

669
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,300
The heart like honeycomb and
says, her way is go down to the

670
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:05,800
pits of hell.
It looks great on the outside

671
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,600
but that destination, we're
going is nowhere.

672
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,400
God wants you to be me think of
the status that you would have

673
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,700
of it is had this fruit?
How much wisdom I'd have and

674
00:47:12,700 --> 00:47:15,900
that Pride begins to spark up
and so she's the fruit in the

675
00:47:15,908 --> 00:47:18,300
verse 6 says this and she gave
some to her husband.

676
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,000
Oh by the way, he was standing
there.

677
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:23,700
Come on somebody, you talk about
a pacifist and he was literally

678
00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:27,300
sitting there watching Satan,
talk to the serpent talking to

679
00:47:27,300 --> 00:47:30,300
his wife and said, nothing and
did nothing.

680
00:47:30,300 --> 00:47:33,200
And so he was staying there and
she gave him the fruit and he

681
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,700
ate it in the eyes of both of
them were what helped me out

682
00:47:36,300 --> 00:47:40,100
there opens for the first time
humanity saw the the other side

683
00:47:40,100 --> 00:47:43,100
of the coin it was like when a
kid loses their innocence.

684
00:47:43,300 --> 00:47:44,900
Oh.
So they realize there's good and

685
00:47:44,900 --> 00:47:47,500
there's evil and they see the
wrong in this sin entered their

686
00:47:47,500 --> 00:47:50,600
hearts and this forever Change
them forever, shape them in

687
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,800
different directions.
Pride has swelled up the

688
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,300
selfishness in Soother
self-promotion self-deception

689
00:47:56,300 --> 00:47:57,800
and they started knowing good
and evil.

690
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,200
In the War Began to wage inside
their soul and they realize

691
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,700
this, they realized that they
were naked and then ago, they

692
00:48:04,700 --> 00:48:07,300
know they're naked, come on
somebody, but now they realize

693
00:48:07,300 --> 00:48:10,100
that they're in naked and the
shame float over them, a no

694
00:48:10,100 --> 00:48:12,400
longer innocent.
And so they sewed fig leaves

695
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,300
together and made coverings for
themselves.

696
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,500
So, sad about this relationship
is that this is the first time.

697
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,100
He made you see two people
hiding from each other.

698
00:48:21,700 --> 00:48:24,000
So, first time you made, you see
two people keeping secrets from

699
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:25,800
each other.
It's the first time you made.

700
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,600
You see people look at
themselves and say, I'm not good

701
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,800
enough.
I know measure up.

702
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,900
I've got flaws like a mistakes.
There's things in my life.

703
00:48:32,900 --> 00:48:35,600
I'm not proud of, and so I'm
going to go so some fig leaves

704
00:48:35,700 --> 00:48:38,600
so people can't see who I really
am that.

705
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:42,100
Shame that power of Shame, cover
them up in the reality, is this

706
00:48:42,100 --> 00:48:44,800
and our generation.
And our time that power of Shame

707
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,700
is still so real.
It's still so much there in our

708
00:48:48,700 --> 00:48:50,300
lives.
Matter fact, we're not.

709
00:48:50,300 --> 00:48:53,100
So in fig leaves, we're doing
other stuff, right?

710
00:48:53,100 --> 00:48:56,200
And you see all the time, people
make fake social media accounts,

711
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,700
people make have their own bank
accounts.

712
00:48:58,700 --> 00:49:00,700
People don't know about you.
People do about this stuff to

713
00:49:00,700 --> 00:49:02,100
get divorced and years later,
right?

714
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,000
And you start hearing the
stories, it's like people go

715
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,100
their own directions.
To the limits.

716
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,500
I think about when the greatest
shames that hold us down the

717
00:49:08,500 --> 00:49:11,000
power of Shame.
It's about hiding things.

718
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,700
You talked about deleted
internet history.

719
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,500
Talk about private browsing.
You have to even delete your

720
00:49:17,500 --> 00:49:19,500
history.
You talked about in that

721
00:49:19,500 --> 00:49:22,600
pornography, think about this
enterpreneur ography makes more

722
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,800
money than Netflix.
Netflix makes it makes more

723
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,400
money.
If you take every Hollywood,

724
00:49:27,500 --> 00:49:29,900
everything in Hollywood put
together, it makes more money

725
00:49:29,900 --> 00:49:32,100
than that.
It makes more money than Viacom,

726
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:35,700
the internet pornography is a
largest one, largest Industries

727
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,200
in the entire world.
But the sad thing is it's

728
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,000
actually the largest industry of
all the world in the United

729
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,100
States.
United States has more clicks on

730
00:49:43,100 --> 00:49:45,100
pornography than any other
country, no other.

731
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,700
Countries, even close to mount
clicks and a nog.

732
00:49:47,700 --> 00:49:50,700
Rafi, the United States and
sadly, this is crazy.

733
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,400
The mostly clicks on the inner
product fee happened on one day

734
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:55,600
of the week.
Yes.

735
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,300
Well, I guess what day of the
week it is Sunday.

736
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,900
Sunday, do you think Satan has
his hands around that?

737
00:50:03,700 --> 00:50:07,100
There's so much shame.
We live in the probably, the

738
00:50:07,100 --> 00:50:11,100
greatest generation of shame in
the history of the world.

739
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,100
We live in a generation that has
captivated by themselves and

740
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,500
others, but they can look But
not touch.

741
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,100
And that shame is overflowed
into marriages and

742
00:50:22,100 --> 00:50:24,300
relationships.
Young people.

743
00:50:24,300 --> 00:50:27,300
The average age of first
exposure in at pornography is

744
00:50:27,300 --> 00:50:30,900
11, What is that?
Sixth grade?

745
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,100
But do the math, right?
Fifth grade.

746
00:50:35,100 --> 00:50:37,200
Thank you.
I need some moms out to help me

747
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:38,200
out.
My kids.

748
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,600
Aren't that old yet, right?
But fifth grade.

749
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:42,700
Do you say this is an
infiltrate.

750
00:50:42,700 --> 00:50:43,800
This he said, well, it's no big
deal.

751
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:45,400
It's no big deal.
It's a huge deal.

752
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:49,200
Amen, it's a huge deal.
It's warping the intimacy that

753
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,000
people have been that shame is
what he'll hold people in that

754
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,900
spot is hitting their stuff that
you wouldn't want God to know,

755
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,600
your spouse.
Know, your best friend, the

756
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,900
know, and you hold on to it.
So tightly and we have these

757
00:50:58,900 --> 00:51:02,100
things, their hands every single
day and this is the power of

758
00:51:02,100 --> 00:51:03,700
Shame.
I'm in our life.

759
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,200
Now in fact this but this one
the greatest tragedy verse 8

760
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,100
says this and the man said his
wife or the man his wife they

761
00:51:10,100 --> 00:51:13,000
heard the sound the Lord as Walk
In the Garden in the cool of the

762
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:16,100
day and they hid from the Lord,
among the trees in the garden.

763
00:51:16,900 --> 00:51:19,500
This is the first time in the
Bible, First Time in the history

764
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:23,900
of humanity, you see, Humanity
running and hiding, from God,

765
00:51:24,700 --> 00:51:27,400
this is this is the first time
it never was this way before.

766
00:51:27,700 --> 00:51:30,900
Also, there's so much shame.
They're so afraid that they saw

767
00:51:30,900 --> 00:51:32,500
these big leaves they run on the
trees.

768
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,800
It'll make a sound hoping that
God won't find them and this is

769
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,300
the reality for so many
relationships.

770
00:51:37,300 --> 00:51:39,500
Looks like God, I can't measure
up, man.

771
00:51:39,500 --> 00:51:41,400
If you knew the real me, come on
somebody.

772
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,500
You would never love me.
If you knew what I've done, you

773
00:51:44,500 --> 00:51:47,400
wouldn't forgive me.
And so this is the exact thing

774
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,300
that happened for Adam and Eve.
They heard the sound.

775
00:51:49,300 --> 00:51:52,200
They ran ahead and broke a
relationship of God.

776
00:51:52,500 --> 00:51:55,600
Verse 9 is the First Act of
Grace by our god.

777
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,200
This is what the Lord God Called
to man.

778
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:01,200
Where are you man?
You talk about a merciful act.

779
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,900
Amen.
The God, he did, we did take a

780
00:52:03,908 --> 00:52:06,600
step towards God, we're running
from God, and God took a step

781
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:07,700
towards us.
Amen.

782
00:52:08,300 --> 00:52:09,500
That God looks for us to the
guard.

783
00:52:09,500 --> 00:52:12,500
He knew we were, but he stepped
out with compassion have been

784
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,800
spit on and lied to, right?
And the garden we chose are on

785
00:52:15,808 --> 00:52:19,200
the way and we'd send against
God a holy God and God walks to

786
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,700
the guards.
As where are you guys at?

787
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,800
We're all use gives a chance to
to own our sin right.

788
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,600
Here's a chance to speak up and
the Lord comes towards us.

789
00:52:27,900 --> 00:52:30,500
It makes the first steps of
reconciliation towards us and

790
00:52:30,500 --> 00:52:33,500
recognizes us and our own sin.
Mentioned, have this kind of

791
00:52:33,500 --> 00:52:37,500
Grace in our relationships today
that have her spouse or a friend

792
00:52:37,500 --> 00:52:39,900
or relationship were in.
They mess up we take the first

793
00:52:39,900 --> 00:52:44,600
step of Grace and what a hike.
All right, he said this Adam

794
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,300
answered, I heard you in the
garden, I was afraid because I

795
00:52:47,300 --> 00:52:51,500
was naked and so I hid from you
you know so much broke that day.

796
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:56,600
It went from found to lost.
It went from Whole to

797
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,500
incomplete.
It went from complete to

798
00:52:59,500 --> 00:53:02,400
shattered, everything changed
for Humanity in that moment.

799
00:53:02,500 --> 00:53:07,300
The words are the dictionary of
me and mine and I of fear of

800
00:53:07,300 --> 00:53:13,200
Shame and security doubt Pride
evil hiding lost.

801
00:53:13,300 --> 00:53:17,100
And we became forever the center
of our universe as that of Jesus

802
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,100
and we ran in our own sin.
It's a running to the feet of

803
00:53:20,100 --> 00:53:22,900
God for the first time in our
lives, you know, things gonna

804
00:53:22,900 --> 00:53:24,400
change your marriage more than
anything it change.

805
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,000
Your relationship is running
back to Jesus.

806
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,100
Amen.
The thing that will make the

807
00:53:29,100 --> 00:53:31,600
difference for you in 2023
today.

808
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,700
When you walk out these doors,
Even is it you put Jesus right

809
00:53:34,700 --> 00:53:36,300
in the middle of your
relationship?

810
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,100
If you build your relationship
on the foundation, on the

811
00:53:39,100 --> 00:53:41,200
footing of the Cornerstone of
Jesus.

812
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,500
Amen.
And stop trying and start

813
00:53:43,500 --> 00:53:46,900
trusting in the one that
ultimately will cover your

814
00:53:46,900 --> 00:53:49,300
shame.
My fat day, they fall in the,

815
00:53:49,300 --> 00:53:51,200
get into the original fight in
the Bible.

816
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,700
The first blame game goes down
right here, in verse 11 and Adam

817
00:53:54,700 --> 00:53:57,100
sent, or God said, who told you
that you were naked.

818
00:53:57,100 --> 00:53:58,400
Have you eaten from the tree
that command?

819
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,700
You not to eat from?
And the man said, well, the

820
00:54:00,700 --> 00:54:02,300
woman he starts blaming the
woman.

821
00:54:02,500 --> 00:54:04,600
That you put here with me that
you brought.

822
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,500
So it's not just her fault but
God is your fault.

823
00:54:06,500 --> 00:54:09,000
You gave me this woman.
She gave me some fruit from the

824
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,200
tree and I ate it.
The Lord God said, the woman,

825
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,100
what have you done?
And then we said, well that

826
00:54:13,100 --> 00:54:16,100
serpent over there, he deceived
me and so I ate it.

827
00:54:16,100 --> 00:54:18,200
And so Lord, God said to the
serpent because you have done

828
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,200
this cursed, are you above all
livestock?

829
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,700
And all the wild animals you
will crawl on your belly and you

830
00:54:22,700 --> 00:54:25,700
eat dust all the days of your
life and I will put enmity

831
00:54:25,700 --> 00:54:28,300
between you and the woman
between your Offspring and hers

832
00:54:28,500 --> 00:54:30,800
and he will crush your head.
We talked about this before but

833
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,400
this is the picture of the
Gospel.

834
00:54:32,700 --> 00:54:35,800
This is the first mention of
Jesus that Jesus is going to

835
00:54:35,808 --> 00:54:38,800
crush the head of the serpent
that cross would drop into the

836
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,300
ground and would crush the head.
We talk about the head of

837
00:54:41,300 --> 00:54:42,400
Goliath.
Amen.

838
00:54:42,700 --> 00:54:45,100
And crush his head and set us
free.

839
00:54:45,500 --> 00:54:47,600
And you will strike his heel to
the woman.

840
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,700
He said, I will make your pains
in childbearing severe.

841
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:51,900
Come on somebody.
We wish we could go back in

842
00:54:51,900 --> 00:54:54,100
time, right?
In the painful labor, you give

843
00:54:54,100 --> 00:54:57,300
it give birth to Children yours.
I'll be for your husband and he

844
00:54:57,300 --> 00:55:00,200
will rule over you.
Now, I will say this one, well

845
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:02,300
with childbirth be like without
the curse.

846
00:55:02,500 --> 00:55:04,400
That'd be interesting
conversation to.

847
00:55:04,500 --> 00:55:06,700
There's only one verse given to
the woman and there's about

848
00:55:06,700 --> 00:55:08,400
three verses that are given to
Adam.

849
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,400
Come on somebody, about to get
some more chastisement for the

850
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,100
guy, right?
And so to Adam, he said, because

851
00:55:14,100 --> 00:55:16,500
you listened to your wife and
ate from the tree about which I

852
00:55:16,500 --> 00:55:19,900
command you, you must not eat
from curses the ground because

853
00:55:19,900 --> 00:55:21,800
of you.
This is where you have the fall,

854
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,100
not just affected Humanity, that
affected all creation.

855
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,800
This is why I have tornadoes and
hurricanes and sufferings been

856
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,600
up to this point.
All the atoms, all the animals.

857
00:55:30,700 --> 00:55:33,700
Apparently spoke the sir, And
talked, right?

858
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:35,800
These animals lived in harmony
to each other, they're

859
00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:39,300
vegetarians people didn't kill
the animals but now things have

860
00:55:39,300 --> 00:55:42,600
changed and through painful tool
you eat for the food from it.

861
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,000
All days, your life, it will
produce thorns and thistles for

862
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,200
you and you eat the plants of
the field and by the sweat of

863
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,800
your brow, you will eat your
food until you return to the

864
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,800
ground.
This is getting serious pretty

865
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,300
quickly hidden it.
And since from it you were taken

866
00:55:58,100 --> 00:56:01,300
for dust you are and to dust you
will return.

867
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,900
I mean the Consequence was real,
right?

868
00:56:03,900 --> 00:56:07,000
I mean, went from eternal life
in the garden to dust.

869
00:56:07,100 --> 00:56:09,700
I'm you talk about having a
messed-up first relationship.

870
00:56:09,700 --> 00:56:11,900
Come on somebody, right?
I mean, some of you guys should

871
00:56:11,900 --> 00:56:14,100
feel pretty good today because
your life doesn't look quite

872
00:56:14,100 --> 00:56:16,800
that bad, right?
Did involve getting, you know,

873
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:19,200
troll life taken away and
separation eviction from a

874
00:56:19,207 --> 00:56:22,000
garden, but we still have that
same Brokenness in our life,

875
00:56:22,100 --> 00:56:25,100
we're all broken, but remind
you, they based on the scripture

876
00:56:25,300 --> 00:56:26,800
that we are not fighting or
spouse.

877
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,800
Amen.
We're not fighting flesh and

878
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,200
blood.
That the warrior in isn't the

879
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:33,600
person.
Next to you or any of the person

880
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:34,600
you can see.
Amen.

881
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:37,600
The Bible says, this were
fighting principalities and

882
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,000
powers of Darkness.
Unseen forces things that are

883
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,500
behind the scenes, we're
fighting shame.

884
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:46,300
We're fighting guilds.
We're fighting the things of the

885
00:56:46,500 --> 00:56:49,800
of the world.
We're fighting insecurity, we're

886
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:54,300
fighting Pride, we're fighting
being afraid.

887
00:56:54,300 --> 00:56:56,400
We're finding all the things on
the inside.

888
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:58,400
There's something way beneath
the surface, we got to get to

889
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:00,200
today, amen.
I mean, we're going to talk

890
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,800
about relationships, we can't
talk about, You and her or her

891
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,900
and you we got to talk about you
and God.

892
00:57:05,900 --> 00:57:08,300
Amen.
And there's something way deeper

893
00:57:08,300 --> 00:57:11,100
that's happening beneath the
surface and your relationship

894
00:57:11,100 --> 00:57:14,700
that has to be addressed, amen.
He's not going to get it right

895
00:57:14,700 --> 00:57:18,000
without knowing, how to solve
this sin problem, how to work

896
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,900
together through sin, because
we're both Fallen, we're both

897
00:57:20,900 --> 00:57:25,100
broken, but God did not abandon
us starts out in Romans 5, 19

898
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,400
for just as through the
Disobedience of one man, this is

899
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,000
Adam.
We talk about Adam is

900
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,300
Disobedience to God.
Many were made sinners.

901
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,700
That's us.
I didn't think we'd get a amen,

902
00:57:34,700 --> 00:57:37,800
right there, right?
But that's us, we're all Sinners

903
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,300
because Adam sinned were used
like the headship of humanity,

904
00:57:40,300 --> 00:57:42,200
right?
We're all broken, but don't miss

905
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,900
this.
So also Through The Obedience of

906
00:57:44,900 --> 00:57:49,800
one, man, many will be made what
made righteous?

907
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:53,600
Come on somebody we are broken
but not abandon A Min.

908
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,000
We're not abandoned and this is
good news because our lives are

909
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,400
messed up like Jerry, Springer
episode, all these things are

910
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,900
going sideways.
People are cheating their lives,

911
00:58:01,900 --> 00:58:03,800
either.
Set the whole all things,

912
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:05,800
they're afraid to be real.
They're hiding stuff from each

913
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:06,900
other.
All this mess.

914
00:58:06,900 --> 00:58:10,300
We live in every single day but
Jesus stepped into the mess.

915
00:58:10,300 --> 00:58:12,800
Amen.
He stepped in on our behalf, he

916
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:17,800
made a way for us and is so
powerful when Jesus took a step

917
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:20,000
towards us.
Look at this in just as 3:20

918
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,400
says this, Adam named, his wife
Eve because she become the

919
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:25,200
mother of all living.
This is like the original

920
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,400
Grandma.
Come on somebody, the Lord God

921
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:32,200
made garments of skin for Adam
and his wife and what helped me

922
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:32,700
out.
Out.

923
00:58:33,700 --> 00:58:36,900
Then close them.
He imagined get this scene here

924
00:58:37,500 --> 00:58:40,000
that the obses Perfection.
They're made for each.

925
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,800
Other is the perfect harmony.
Got a built it and they sins.

926
00:58:44,900 --> 00:58:47,400
It's inevitable consequence
because God is a holy God.

927
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,700
There's no sin in heaven.
There's no scent around God.

928
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,800
He is perfect on every level we
can never measure up now because

929
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:56,100
we chose a different path.
And so God gives consequences

930
00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:58,800
but even for years consequences,
he looks for us.

931
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:02,000
Amen.
He didn't abandon us and then he

932
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,300
then he gives us Sequences.
And then his first act towards

933
00:59:05,300 --> 00:59:07,700
us, what an act of mercy and
Grace.

934
00:59:07,900 --> 00:59:10,900
It says, the Lord made garments
of skin for Adam and his wife

935
00:59:11,300 --> 00:59:13,900
and clothed them that God
clothes.

936
00:59:13,900 --> 00:59:17,900
It that God made a way to cover
their shame.

937
00:59:17,900 --> 00:59:20,500
Amen.
The very first thing that God

938
00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:22,100
did is looked at him Andy.
He said.

939
00:59:22,100 --> 00:59:25,400
Yeah you're broken and you have
to have some coverings and so

940
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:29,600
for the first time and all of
time, the god of the universe

941
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,500
steps into his creation.
The now is warning its each

942
00:59:32,500 --> 00:59:34,600
other.
Now Sudden you've lined

943
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:37,600
attacking zebras of Southern
long, you're talking, how are

944
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:39,400
you?
No longer day of the tiger?

945
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,600
Come on somebody, and they're
attacking each other and all of

946
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:45,800
a sudden there's God's Universe
steps in and he hunts down,

947
00:59:45,900 --> 00:59:49,100
which would take along and grabs
an animal on the water.

948
00:59:49,100 --> 00:59:52,100
Was he kills it?
He's skins it.

949
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,600
And he shows together clothes
for Humanity.

950
00:59:56,500 --> 01:00:00,100
He imagined the grace of God and
how much he loves us to such an

951
01:00:00,100 --> 01:00:05,100
act of Mercy, but we spit in his
face, Ace and we turn from him.

952
01:00:05,900 --> 01:00:07,500
This is kind of Grace were
called to happen, our

953
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:10,000
relationships.
Well, the grace things you do is

954
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:14,900
a man of God, is he protecting
cover your family men, you see

955
01:00:14,900 --> 01:00:17,600
things that nobody else should
see, and you fight to break it,

956
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,600
right?
You lock the key on it, for the

957
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,700
things that Jesus and you fight
like, hell for your family, men

958
01:00:23,500 --> 01:00:26,100
and Jesus.
He looked at Humanity, he fought

959
01:00:26,100 --> 01:00:28,500
off hell for us now.
In fact, this wasn't the last

960
01:00:28,500 --> 01:00:31,900
time that Jesus or God would
cover our shame.

961
01:00:31,900 --> 01:00:35,700
Amen.
That fact, this is a picture of

962
01:00:35,700 --> 01:00:37,000
what Christ is going to do for
us.

963
01:00:37,100 --> 01:00:39,200
This is a foreshadowing of the
Old Testament system.

964
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:43,100
Were the shedding of blood will
be forgiveness of sins that one

965
01:00:43,100 --> 01:00:47,700
day.
This innocent animal will be

966
01:00:47,700 --> 01:00:53,500
sacrificed to cover the sins.
Just like then assemble is given

967
01:00:53,500 --> 01:00:56,400
to sacrifice and cover the sins
of Adam and Eve, there were the

968
01:00:56,400 --> 01:01:00,400
innocent Lamb of God, that be
given to cover our sin and

969
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:01,200
shame.
Amen.

970
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:04,100
And the Bible says something so
beautiful.

971
01:01:04,500 --> 01:01:06,700
It's so amazing.
If you haven't found it yet, is

972
01:01:06,700 --> 01:01:10,200
found in Isaiah 61.
Now, Isaiah 61, if you don't

973
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,700
know this passage, you got to
get to those passes because

974
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,100
Jesus quoted this path.
Siege.

975
01:01:15,100 --> 01:01:18,200
This was his opening passage to
the start of his ministry

976
01:01:18,500 --> 01:01:20,200
Merced.
The spirit Lord, is upon me.

977
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:25,200
His anointed me to bring good
news right to set.

978
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,800
The captives free we've heard
that passage.

979
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,600
Hopefully is Christians because
Jesus launched his public

980
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,900
Ministry with that passage.
And it goes on to say this about

981
01:01:33,900 --> 01:01:38,000
us, and is so special.
Today as a 6110, it says this, I

982
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,500
July greatly in the Lord, my
soul rejoices in my God for he

983
01:01:42,500 --> 01:01:48,300
has what clothes With garments
of Salvation.

984
01:01:48,300 --> 01:01:52,500
Amen.
In a raid me in a robe of

985
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,700
righteousness.
Today, you are covered on the

986
01:01:56,700 --> 01:02:01,500
blood of Jesus, and that is the
only reason that this whole

987
01:02:01,500 --> 01:02:03,500
marriage thing.
And this whole relationship

988
01:02:03,500 --> 01:02:06,600
thing is ever going to work gay
men because it's built on the

989
01:02:06,607 --> 01:02:09,500
things of Jesus.
Do you realize there's only one

990
01:02:09,500 --> 01:02:13,300
letter difference between the
word United and the word untied.

991
01:02:13,900 --> 01:02:16,300
You realize that That is one
letter that.

992
01:02:16,300 --> 01:02:18,500
Just move it a little closer to
the you.

993
01:02:18,700 --> 01:02:21,100
It's the letter.
I it's all about where you put

994
01:02:21,100 --> 01:02:25,200
the, i in your relationship.
Where do you fit it?

995
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:27,700
Because there's what looks like
when it's about you, we were

996
01:02:27,900 --> 01:02:30,800
fighting really for the things
that we ourselves.

997
01:02:30,900 --> 01:02:34,400
It looks like this.
I'm offended, I'm hurt.

998
01:02:34,900 --> 01:02:37,900
I'm mad.
I could never forgive.

999
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,800
I could never move forward.
I'm no longer in love.

1000
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,400
My fact I was never in love.
I've heard that a few times

1001
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:45,500
last.
Last four years for different

1002
01:02:45,500 --> 01:02:47,900
people's relationships.
I think what a crock.

1003
01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:50,400
Right?
What a manipulation tactics?

1004
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:52,800
I was never in love.
I'm not happy.

1005
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,200
I'm done.
I don't love this person.

1006
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:57,000
I don't need you.
I don't want to change.

1007
01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:59,900
I'm happier without you.
I'm over it.

1008
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,400
This happens when the eyes are
on you.

1009
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,700
Amen, when it was all about you,
it's all about myself.

1010
01:03:05,700 --> 01:03:08,100
It's all about me.
I feel like I'm about singing a

1011
01:03:08,100 --> 01:03:11,500
country song, right about me,
talking about everything there.

1012
01:03:11,500 --> 01:03:17,200
Hey, He is in jail for that but
she'll for the word of God,

1013
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,100
right?
But you look at this, when it's

1014
01:03:19,100 --> 01:03:22,500
all about, I myself because that
word didn't exist.

1015
01:03:22,900 --> 01:03:25,700
That even though there are naked
in the garden, they had no

1016
01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:29,500
self-awareness.
It was interdependence who

1017
01:03:29,500 --> 01:03:33,000
depends on God and trust in God.
And this love relationship with

1018
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Eve.
And all of a sudden it's like,

1019
01:03:34,100 --> 01:03:38,200
oh I'm full of Shame.
I'm afraid, and all this, which

1020
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,000
are acting out of.
I am own power, my own ability,

1021
01:03:41,500 --> 01:03:43,900
here's the reality.
There is Serie fruits of the the

1022
01:03:43,900 --> 01:03:50,100
spirit with I Zero fruits of the
spirit but if you're United

1023
01:03:50,100 --> 01:03:53,400
other things to Christ, all of a
sudden because God has changed

1024
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,000
us got his robe, does in his
righteousness.

1025
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,100
All of a sudden, we can say
stuff like this, hey, I forgive

1026
01:03:59,100 --> 01:04:03,100
you.
Because Christ forgave me, you

1027
01:04:03,100 --> 01:04:05,900
know, God cares around the
bigger racer and he races all

1028
01:04:05,900 --> 01:04:07,800
our wrongs.
You guys know that, the Bible

1029
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:09,600
says he didn't count of wrongs
against us.

1030
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,000
There fact, God keeps a record
of all the rights.

1031
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,200
Amen, he doesn't walk around
looking up.

1032
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:15,600
I told yourself losing be that
way.

1033
01:04:15,700 --> 01:04:16,900
I'm gonna take this.
I'm a fault fine.

1034
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:17,400
Hiroki.
Yep.

1035
01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:17,900
Yep, yep.
Yep.

1036
01:04:17,900 --> 01:04:19,900
You should erase the sin as far
as the East is from the West.

1037
01:04:19,900 --> 01:04:22,200
Amen.
And that's what called tuna

1038
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,300
relationships.
I'm not gonna give you any like

1039
01:04:25,500 --> 01:04:28,400
Not only cost like prognosis of
what you should do in your

1040
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,900
relationship.
I must give you some principles

1041
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,000
that we should offer forgiveness
as Christ.

1042
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,500
Forgave us, amen.
You're a knight of the things of

1043
01:04:35,500 --> 01:04:36,700
Christ.
That should be.

1044
01:04:36,707 --> 01:04:39,500
Neither the mission of Christ.
God is not put you together

1045
01:04:39,500 --> 01:04:41,400
towards each other.
He puts you guys at war against

1046
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,000
the things of the world and to
rescue Souls.

1047
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,700
Amen, you are.
Mission driven.

1048
01:04:46,900 --> 01:04:49,000
Did you should study your
woman's personality?

1049
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:50,600
And she said, your man's
personality.

1050
01:04:50,700 --> 01:04:53,500
You should know everything about
them inside and out.

1051
01:04:53,500 --> 01:04:56,500
Come on somebody.
You should know them, and you

1052
01:04:56,500 --> 01:04:58,300
fall in love each other on
Mission together.

1053
01:04:58,300 --> 01:05:02,300
For the cause of Christ looks
like be unified for Christ.

1054
01:05:02,300 --> 01:05:03,900
As you realize, it's not built
with each other.

1055
01:05:04,500 --> 01:05:09,400
You realize that I can love
because God loves me and I'm not

1056
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:11,500
full of Shame.
I'm not full of guilds.

1057
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:14,000
I'm not full of fear because of
Jesus.

1058
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:17,000
I am set free and who The Spits
Son of God says, free.

1059
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:19,500
The spirit sets.
Free is free in deed.

1060
01:05:19,500 --> 01:05:22,100
Amen and so I live from a
different perspective.

1061
01:05:22,100 --> 01:05:24,700
I don't live from a fallen
broken state.

1062
01:05:24,900 --> 01:05:29,600
Live from a complete whole
redeemed regenerate life-giving

1063
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,600
holy spirit, filled State of
Mind.

1064
01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:33,900
Amen.
And so we don't give up and

1065
01:05:33,908 --> 01:05:36,700
maybe somebody has walked away.
You've done all you can you're

1066
01:05:36,700 --> 01:05:39,400
chasing them, but we still
forgive them and love them.

1067
01:05:39,500 --> 01:05:41,600
And we take the first step as
Christians.

1068
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,500
We always take the first step
towards people to love people,

1069
01:05:44,500 --> 01:05:47,800
even those closest to us.
By the way, those closest to us,

1070
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:50,800
we sent tend to hurt the most
because they see us at our

1071
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:53,300
worst.
But today, I want to encourage

1072
01:05:53,300 --> 01:05:57,100
you as men and women in
relationships, whether you're at

1073
01:05:57,100 --> 01:05:59,700
whatever status, it is to make
Jesus a sinner your

1074
01:05:59,700 --> 01:06:00,800
relationship.
Amen.

1075
01:06:01,500 --> 01:06:03,900
That you're broken.
But your Brokenness doesn't

1076
01:06:03,900 --> 01:06:07,100
Define you because you're not
abandoned by the things of God.

1077
01:06:07,100 --> 01:06:10,300
Amen and today we can leave
changed because the Holy Spirit

1078
01:06:10,300 --> 01:06:13,200
I told you put your head to the
Holy Spirit and what's God

1079
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,400
saying to you today.
The only difference between

1080
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:19,500
being broken and being a not
abandon and knowing god is that

1081
01:06:19,500 --> 01:06:21,600
you put God right here in your
mind in your heart and you

1082
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,600
listen to the word of God for
you and your family.

1083
01:06:23,900 --> 01:06:26,200
So you guys walking Deep end
with your family.

1084
01:06:26,300 --> 01:06:29,100
So you guys got kids that have
gone, prodigal, right?

1085
01:06:29,300 --> 01:06:32,100
So you guys got families are
falling apart and you guys is

1086
01:06:32,100 --> 01:06:34,700
Dad's or mom's or brothers and
sisters, our sons our daughters,

1087
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,900
you're trying to hold together.
Can I just tell you that Jesus

1088
01:06:38,100 --> 01:06:40,500
has this?
That you just got to trust in

1089
01:06:40,500 --> 01:06:42,200
God.
That you gotta get some

1090
01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:44,300
refreshing on your souls and you
guys have been to battle for a

1091
01:06:44,308 --> 01:06:46,700
long time.
As a pastor, I see the good

1092
01:06:46,700 --> 01:06:49,200
stuff, but I see hard stuff
that's really weird.

1093
01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,200
Today, put your head to the holy
spirit because no one is going

1094
01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:54,600
to understand what you're
walking through as much as God.

1095
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:59,900
Does God's Gonna understand that
God gave his son?

1096
01:07:00,700 --> 01:07:03,800
God lost his family, so we could
be found.

1097
01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:07,500
Amen.
That's love, that's Redemption

1098
01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:13,100
and God covered us as he wrapped
us in a son's arm with grace and

1099
01:07:13,100 --> 01:07:17,700
mercy in Jesus wrapped a robe of
righteousness on you.

1100
01:07:18,100 --> 01:07:20,900
And now he's calling us to wrap
a robe of righteousness around

1101
01:07:20,900 --> 01:07:24,100
somebody else and share that.
Good news with somebody else in

1102
01:07:24,100 --> 01:07:26,300
love our spouse.
Even in their false.

1103
01:07:26,500 --> 01:07:29,300
Come on, look in the mirror.
Somebody here hey and love

1104
01:07:29,300 --> 01:07:32,000

build relationship on Jesus this

1105
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:33,200
week.
Get together.

1106
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:36,600
Pray to go with your spouse
fight for the things of God and

1107
01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,900
your relationship and take those
things are hidden and say you

1108
01:07:39,900 --> 01:07:42,700
know, I'm done with that.
I'm they'll no longer staff.

1109
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:44,900
Come on somebody.
I'm going to change the trend

1110
01:07:44,900 --> 01:07:47,100
for my family.
I'm fine for generations and

1111
01:07:47,100 --> 01:07:49,900
nobody's fighting for the Unseen
generations of the future.

1112
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,400
Going to fight for the things of
God.

1113
01:07:51,500 --> 01:07:54,700
I'm broken.
I'm not abandon name in fun.

1114
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:57,900
We come before you and God, did
you ask to speak to our hearts

1115
01:07:57,900 --> 01:07:59,600
today?
Each relationships are different

1116
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:02,200
places.
Some are starting some of the

1117
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,900
Rocks, so of ended, some of the
middle somewhere, somewhere

1118
01:08:05,900 --> 01:08:08,300
somewhere over it.
But God, would you speak a word

1119
01:08:08,300 --> 01:08:12,300
into our hearts today?
Gar - of what it could be like,

1120
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:14,700
teachers to fall in love with
you.

1121
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:17,000

and say, you know what, I'm

1122
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:19,399
stuck, I've been stuck for a
while.

1123
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,800
I was going to have to be stuck.
I was mad at people.

1124
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:25,399
Mad at myself, mad at God, but
they will be Stuck.

1125
01:08:25,899 --> 01:08:29,600
We'll take a step towards God.
I would have reminded myself of

1126
01:08:29,608 --> 01:08:32,399
the things of God and remind
them covered by the

1127
01:08:33,100 --> 01:08:35,700
righteousness of God, the robe
of God.

1128
01:08:35,700 --> 01:08:39,100

Center of My Universe will put

1129
01:08:39,100 --> 01:08:40,200
God in the center of my
marriage.

01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,399
I got through my relationships,
I want this be built on him and

1131
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:44,300
no longer on me, if that's
youth.

1132
01:08:44,300 --> 01:08:47,200
I be looking around this moment.
We just put your hand there and

1133
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,700
say, yes, Jesus, that's me.
I'm stuck.

1134
01:08:49,700 --> 01:08:52,800
I'm no longer stuck today on 5
for the things of God and my

1135
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:54,600
marriage and my family.
I see your hands all across the

1136
01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:56,500
state.
Vroom, put the hands down.

1137
01:08:56,700 --> 01:09:01,200
Father, you know, we're at
specifically God and I pray for

1138
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,800
our marriage has to be
reflection of you got that, we

1139
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:06,600
would just wake up to the
reality of who you are.

1140
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:10,200
And God, we get our nose in the
book so we can know you.

1141
01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:12,700
After you read our marriage, you
read us.

1142
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:15,399
You strengthen us.
So people look at us, we got,

1143
01:09:15,399 --> 01:09:17,000
hey, it's not me, it's just
Jesus.

1144
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:19,000
I've made so many mistakes, but
don't be like me.

1145
01:09:19,100 --> 01:09:22,100
Be like God, and we can point
our kids and Next Generation to

1146
01:09:22,100 --> 01:09:24,700
you, got pray for marriages that
are maybe struggling.

1147
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,899
And that they're reminded of why
they're married, and who they

1148
01:09:26,899 --> 01:09:29,500
are in Christ, that they are
mission driven that they're

1149
01:09:29,500 --> 01:09:32,000
christ-centered today.
And then you put you right in

1150
01:09:32,008 --> 01:09:33,600
the middle of that.
I pray for those who are in the

1151
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,800
hard yards of divorce and hard
season of the mess.

1152
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,000
Got pray for strength, got pray
for encouragement.

1153
01:09:40,100 --> 01:09:42,700
Pray that though, that this not
done that, God's not done with

1154
01:09:42,700 --> 01:09:46,300
them and they God's for them.
My how far their run Gods with

1155
01:09:46,300 --> 01:09:47,899

Maybe they've done everything,

1156
01:09:47,899 --> 01:09:49,500
right?
And still not working out.

1157
01:09:49,500 --> 01:09:51,399
Gotta pray for your special
blessing on them.

1158
01:09:51,399 --> 01:09:53,700
God, thank you for the robe of
righteousness.

1159
01:09:53,700 --> 01:09:55,900

more group people and that's

1160
01:09:55,900 --> 01:09:57,700
those of you, the walked in the
house.

1161
01:09:57,700 --> 01:10:00,200
You see, you know what, I was
that person hiding.

1162
01:10:00,700 --> 01:10:04,100
I was that person running.
I'm that person that is walked

1163
01:10:04,100 --> 01:10:06,200
away from God.
We're trying to do my own way,

1164
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,200
be cover my own, shame and sin,
and they've been wrapped up to

1165
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,700

But then I realized that God

1166
01:10:11,700 --> 01:10:15,300

thing, you do nothing that will

Whether it's relationally,
you're connecting to God.

1221
01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:49,700
I have a couple of next steps
that all of us can take to do.

1222
01:12:49,700 --> 01:12:51,900
And the first one is this, we
have a thing.

1223
01:12:51,900 --> 01:12:53,500
We've talked about a couple
times today called the

1224
01:12:53,500 --> 01:12:56,200
YouVersion Bible app.
It's an incredible resource that

1225
01:12:56,200 --> 01:13:00,200

01:15:16,300 --> 01:15:18,500
different pieces that come
together to let it be a place

1276
01:15:18,500 --> 01:15:20,700
where young people can say.
Yeah, this is kind of cool.

1277
01:15:20,700 --> 01:15:24,100
I want to know more about this
God thing and so I do hope that

1278
01:15:24,100 --> 01:15:27,500
you'll be covering them in
prayer tonight as We are seeing

1279
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:29,800
young people come out to that
space, maybe for the first time.

1280
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:32,900
Maybe you are a six to twelve
grader or you know, a 6th and

1281
01:15:32,900 --> 01:15:36,000
12th grader who would want to
come out tonight and just check

1282
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,600
out what God is doing in our
youth group at the Hope Center.

1283
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:40,700
It's going to be a really,
really great time.

1284
01:15:40,700 --> 01:15:42,600
And it's really because of your
generosity.

1285
01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:44,300
You know, we've been raising
money for this, we've been

1286
01:15:44,300 --> 01:15:47,600
raising funds raising things so
that today could happen so that

1287
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:50,900
lives can be changed for Jesus.
So that our next Generation that

1288
01:15:50,900 --> 01:15:54,000
we see sweeping rival across.
The country can happen here in

1289
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:55,700

Central Place of Hope for young

01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,400
people in our city to know.

1292
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:02,300
And so, thank you for your
generosity.

1293
01:16:02,500 --> 01:16:05,300
If you want to get involved in
being a part of generosity and

1294
01:16:05,300 --> 01:16:07,400
everything that makes, you know,
real life work.

your family in your time of need
and South check out this video.

1311
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:02,300
Serving, the youth has made a
difference in my life, can two

1312
01:17:02,300 --> 01:17:05,300
different ways.
First, by establishing a bond

1313
01:17:05,300 --> 01:17:08,800
with our team.
Every week, we meet, it's my

1314
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:13,600
wife Jessica, Adam Ella Josh in
our leader carry, we really are

1315
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:17,000
united in the belief that
planting seeds of faith in kids.

1316
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,800
While they're young, will be
something they can draw back to

1317
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:23,600
as they get older.
And remember the unconditional

1318
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,000
love of God where they go
through a straw.

1319
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,400
Eagles.
Also, for me personally to give

1320
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:30,300
back to those teachers who
taught me about the truth and

1321
01:17:30,300 --> 01:17:33,600
believed in me, I know
personally, what it's like when

1322
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:37,200
somebody believes in you, even
if it's just one person who then

1323
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:42,900
bet most of you do to the most
impactful moment for me came at

1324
01:17:42,900 --> 01:17:46,100
Camp last year, it was the final
night and I asked the boys, if

1325
01:17:46,100 --> 01:17:49,700
any of them wanted to pray in
every single one of them,

1326
01:17:49,700 --> 01:17:54,800
volunteer, they took turns they
prayed for you their family.

1327
01:17:54,900 --> 01:17:57,100
They For strength.
And some of the struggles, they

1328
01:17:57,100 --> 01:17:59,200
were going through.
And they also expressed

1329
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:02,900
gratitude for being able to see,
hundreds of kids come together

1330
01:18:02,900 --> 01:18:05,900
to celebrate Jesus in a way,
which they had never seen

1331
01:18:05,900 --> 01:18:08,800
before.
It may not sound like much, but

1332
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:12,000
knowing like, I did.
And that several of these boys

1333
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:16,400
had never prayed before, or at
least told me that it was made

1334
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:20,300
an unforgettable and one of the
proudest moments of my life when

1335
01:18:20,300 --> 01:18:24,100
I can see God doing for our
youth, in the new space is

1336
01:18:24,300 --> 01:18:27,000
finally allowing the To have a
home somewhere where we can

1337
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:30,400
really play it Roots, establish
a continuity for them.

1338
01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:32,600
That's been a little bit tough,
as we move through people's

1339
01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:37,300
houses and shared some spaces
with businesses and even a

1340
01:18:37,308 --> 01:18:41,200
church and it's also easy for me
to daydream.

1341
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:46,300
I've pictured the future of
Youth, it's in similar to today

1342
01:18:46,300 --> 01:18:49,600
and that there's a lot of
laughter and prayer playing and

1343
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:53,500
singing love that encouragement.
But it's actually going to take

1344
01:18:53,500 --> 01:18:58,600
place in a Space where we can
create those memories, and we

1345
01:18:58,600 --> 01:19:02,700
will always be able to come back
to hopefully for a very long

1346
01:19:02,700 --> 01:19:05,000
time.
But now there's another part.

1347
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:09,500
I actually also picture these
kids who are going to grow up.

1348
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:12,000
They are going to graduate
school and they will technically

1349
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:16,000
age out of Youth.
But they will know that the Hope

1350
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:19,400
Center, even as adults will
always be at home for them.

1351
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:22,200
It's a place where they could
still find that laughter.

1352
01:19:22,300 --> 01:19:25,500
Still find the friendly faces
and people who will love and

1353
01:19:25,500 --> 01:19:28,000
care about them as much as
Christ loves us.

1354
01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:35,400
Man of Aran didn't get you fired
up about youth tonight.

1355
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:38,800
I don't know what well, who's
excited for the launch of youth

1356
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,700
group, man?
Praise God, that's going to be

1357
01:19:41,700 --> 01:19:44,700
at 6:00 tonight and parents.
We invite you, like Sean said,

1358
01:19:44,700 --> 01:19:48,200
come on in and play a huge part
of that at the Hope Center

1359
01:19:48,500 --> 01:19:51,000
tonight.
Guys, let's get United in our

1360
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,000
relationships.
Let's grab these cards on our

1361
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:55,600
seats and let's bring a friend
next week, as we continue the

1362
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:59,800
series with a message called, I
still do.

1363
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:01,700
If you need some prayer this
morning, we're going.

1364
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:04,400
I have a team member right up
here up front to pray with you

1365
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:09,900
and remember, whoever finds
Jesus discovers real life.

1366
01:20:09,900 --> 01:20:11,900
And purpose have a great week
guys.
