Church at Home Sermon 25 Apr | Compelled - Tim Mackie

hey good morning one hope it's so good to have you again with us this morning if you're joining from outside of one hope so good to have you along with us as well especially if you're in south africa and it's a extra long weekend we've got a tuesday public holiday if you're signing in with your family or with some friends i know a lot of our congregation are away this weekend i want to say well done for coming and joining us it's beautiful to be together around god's word this morning this morning the first video that we're going to watch is from one of our serve stalin bosch partners called youth outreach guys the reason that we show these videos is for two things one it's so that you can see what's going on in these organizations you can find out what they're all about what their vision is what their heart is who the people in the organizations are but then the really important next part or the next step is that we're actually asking for people to be involved we want god to stir our hearts to be involved in these organizations so that we can be the hands and the feet of jesus bringing heaven down to earth as jesus teaches us to pray your your kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven and we get to carry some of that kingdom into our world and so let's watch this video together and then robin's going to give us some prayer points and let's pray with all our hearts for youth outreach as well as our other serve stalin bosch partners hello family i am so excited today we are in the drop-in center views outreach where if you can remember in 2019 we did an awesome surf saturday here and yeah i'm just really excited for you guys to meet the people who work here to hear a bit of their heart and all the programs that they do and how we can get involved [Music] with um intensions [Music] [Music] um [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so awesome to hear more about youth outreach and i just want to take this opportunity to lift them up and pray three points that we can pray into firstly the drop-in center is in the process of hiring a new social worker this position is critical in ensuring the well-being and the flourishing of the kids there i just really want to ask for prayer over that whole process the interviewing and the hiring and just that god makes it very evident who he wants to bring on board secondly the in-house kiddos are still adapting to a new rhythm of school where they're still not going to school every single day i just really want to ask for prayers in capacity and focus and excitement and encouragement for both the staff and the kids to really take on the new challenge of basically at home learning yeah and just really asking for encouragement around their academics and then lastly it was just so cool to see and hear where god has brought youth outreach from as well as the plans for going forward and i just want to ask for praise of gratitude for god's faithfulness and how he's worked and grown youth outreach and that he just really blesses as he continues to grow them that they continue to be a place of safety and light for so many kids and staff instead about it really is a blessing thank you so much for praying guys and please let me know if you are keen to find out more about youth outreach more details of how to actually get plugged in and also just a reminder that every tuesday at lunchtime 1 to 1 30 on zoom we have an awesome service daily prayer meeting we'll be praying for all four of our partners so feel free to join those lots of love and then guys last week i preached and what a precious sunday to come together and have so many of you come and join us at middle flay have poikie afterwards was watching the children just run around we haven't seen it for so long and it was so precious to be together but then on monday morning after i preached on the returning to the true story and how the scripture traces the story of what god is actually doing in the earth i watched a video by the guy who does the bible project called timmaki and it just resonated so much with me that i thought we have to watch this video and so this morning we've actually asked them for permission and they've given us permission to use their video and we're going to watch tim mackey sharing about the true story in particular around the way it applies to the gospel and what does it mean around heaven and earth and hell and how do all these things fit together and what is god's design around the kingdom here on earth today so let me pray for us and then we're going to go straight into that sermon this morning father we thank you for your word we thank you for the challenge of your word lord that it doesn't just leave us where we are but it comes and constantly confronts us and loves on us and challenges us and speaks true stories where we believe false stories and it corrects us and rebukes us and equips us for for righteousness as timothy so beautifully says father i pray that this morning as we listen to your word would you work in our hearts just where we need you to work in our hearts thank you holy spirit that you know individually each person listening this morning and i ask that you at work in our hearts in the name of the lord jesus christ amen uh hello how you guys doing it's good to uh good to see you um uh there's probably a whole bunch of you that i i don't know and um because i haven't been around here for years so hello my name is tim uh i uh let's see my my wife and i uh we moved here to your wonderful town madison so i could go to graduate school back in 2003 and we were a part of black hawk for nine years uh and the last three years of that i was one of the pastors here and so i know lots of you but there's probably lots of you who have been here the last three years and hi i don't know you i'm sure you're a really nice person what we're talking about is cultivating cultivating something inside of us so that we we talk about jesus and it's not weird it's just it's because we we love him and because he loves us and if if jesus the series right title it comes from that famous statement of paul it is the love that jesus has shown us and that he that and that sustains us daily as his followers it compels us to talk about him and it's not weird because it's not weird to talk about something that you love you just do it you just talk about it and you will by nature want to know what others might think about it and address misunderstandings or whatever and i think it's it's no different when we're talking about jesus i just don't think it's any different and if you don't have any desire whatsoever to talk about jesus it might just be worth asking yourself like oh maybe i'm not compelled by jesus at all why are you a christian then like why are you following jesus you know what i'm saying if it's not doing something to you like what's the point it should really lead to some reflection and go get a cup of tea and journal about that i'm really quite serious if you will naturally talk about something that fascinates you and that challenges you and that inspires you and if jesus whatever the role that jesus plays in the life of one of his followers it is that he is an endlessly fascinating challenging inspiring loving person to follow and if you are driven by his love you will talk about it and you will clarify misunderstandings and are there misunderstandings about jesus in our world holy cow right right and so that that uh and so how do you get how do you fish that out and i i have found the first thing you shouldn't do is just tell people what you think about jesus right the most like the most natural way to find out what people think about jesus is to find out what they think about jesus and just ask questions right i mean who doesn't love to talk about what they think you know like everybody loves to tell you what they think so just ask people questions right you don't have to like convert them like just find out what they think about jesus and that will tell you loads and here's what will happen seven times out of ten is someone will start describing to you their understanding of jesus or of christianity and why they don't believe in it or why they've rejected it and then it will provide you an opportunity to also say yeah i don't believe in that jesus either i think we're actually i think we agree on this point like the jesus that you've rejected is not the jesus that i follow that's some some other jesus you guys with me here so so where do you go from there you love people you respect them if they ask you not to talk about jesus all the time like honor that right honor it like respect people don't be a weirdo about it but pray and love people and ask them what they think and over longevity of time as you love and honor people and like the conversation will happen and opportunities to clarify so what i want to just zero in on is is one particular uh misunderstanding or one particular distortion about jesus uh that i have found to be extremely common i'm just thinking about you know my neighbors right who are on on my street in portland and and the people who work at porquino and i didn't just talk to them about find out what they think about jesus and um and the number one thing is the thing that i want to focus in on uh for our time here today because i think one of the greatest gifts that we can offer people is is clarifying who jesus actually is by asking questions inviting that conversation and then offering our story and our conviction about who who jesus is here's if you start fishing around for people's view of jesus and what they think you believe odds are you're gonna you're gonna come up with a story like this and it's a story that's worth really clarifying what if this is actually somebody really thinks and the story is going to go something like this they may not believe that but they think that this is what you believe or something like that so here we all are here on planet earth uh it's a beautiful and also tragic place and uh here here's uh me and and you and so on and so here we are uh we're living our lives and uh you know sometimes great sometimes really sad and um your friends think that you believe that uh you know you're trying to do pretty good sometimes you fail uh sometimes you do really poorly you're kind of hoping to get more on this side of the line than that side of the line but we're all kind of a mixed bag but at the end of the game god's going to you know close the curtains on history and based off of how good you've been or how bad you've been or on whether or not you happen to hold correct ideas and beliefs about who jesus is your destiny is one of two places so one of those places will be heaven and the other place the bad place will be will be held and uh heaven if you kind of fish this out of people in in the popular cultural imagination is you know these are both like maybe disembodied non-physical places this has to do with clouds and harps and singing in the presence of god and this has to do with like some subterranean torture chamber or something like that right where god is sadistically hurting people i mean you guys with me this is what people think that followers of jesus believe the vast majority of people in the west think that this is what you believe and some of you in the room might be thinking yeah that is what what i believe and so um i just i love you and i care about you and and this is this is wrong it's wrong the main problem with this story is the bible and the other main problem with this story is the actual life and teachings of jesus this story is shot through with so many half or one-quarter truths that it's just not helpful we need to think we need to read our bibles again with a fresh set of eyes and so i here i invite you to grab a bible and just turn with me to the gospel according to mark chapter one and the way i want to frame this is just very briefly you know over the next 20 25 minutes is think through a simple way for how to reframe the story of the gospel in a way that's true to the real jesus and in a way that i think once we get it and once we communicate it it's compelling it's a compelling story gospel according to mark page one the beginning of the good news about jesus the messiah the son of god now let's just stop right there what if there was a one page in the bible where you could go to and say um what is this book about it's about the good news about jesus the messiah the son of god what's a great candidate where should you go in the bible i mean what do you want the beginning of the good news about jesus and so we're thinking okay so heaven earth heaven and hell right that's verse two right and it's like oh no that's not verse two what's verse two just like it was written in isaiah the prophet i'll send my messenger ahead of you who prepare your way a voice of one calling in the wilderness prepare the way for the lord and make straight paths for him what why is the bible saying what it's supposed to say right now are you with me here so apparently according to the bible the good news about jesus the messiah the son of god links you up to a story that's already you know it's like jumping into a rushing rushing river right we're jumping into a story that's already you know midstream and has all this momentum already and so apparently the good news about jesus involves something that the prophet isaiah said that israel's story after they were redeemed from slavery in egypt and then brought into the promised land and they did a really bad job of that one and so then they got kicked out of the land into exile and babylon and the prophet isaiah says on the other side of their exile in babylon god's going to return to his people personally he's going to come on this highway in the desert and he's going to send a messenger ahead of him that's the good news about jesus the son of god is this simple it's not simple in one sense the bible's not simple right once you get the basic storyline it's actually not that hard to get but the bible just refuses to be domesticated and our attempts to boil it down to half truths and summaries and this is one of those places where we have to humble ourselves and say like mate maybe maybe we've gotten this wrong and maybe i need to come back and rediscover what the bible is actually trying to tell me and it's trying to tell me that jesus comes as the culmination of israel's story and as the fulfillment of a promise that the god of israel said that he would come to visit and rescue his people go down to verse 14 of mark chapter 1 verse 14. after john was put in prison john who john the baptist right the guy the crazy guy in the desert who ate beehives and insects and so on that guy john the baptist was put in prison so jesus went in the galley proclaiming the good news of god here okay here we go if i ever wanted to hear what the gospel is from the mouth of jesus this is a great candidate right here verse 15 and what is it the time has come jesus said the kingdom of god has come near repent and believe the good news now just stop and look at verse 15. so what is the good news jesus says repent and believe the good news so apparently the good news is something he just said and what is it verse 15 what's the good news the time has come the time has come and something's here and that something coming here is the good news and what is that something that has come here the kingdom of god the kingdom of god so apparently in jesus mind the story of the bible and who he is and what he's here to do and the gospel is about not about us going somewhere it's about god coming here you with me here it's about something that god is doing here that according to jesus is the good news there's multiple things that are wrong with this story first of all this is a me centered story it's about me and what i'm doing good or bad and then god just is a you know the one who assigns me a role right here at the end of the story that's not the gospel that's certainly not a story of the bible the story of the bible is about god and what god is doing in our world this is a story that focuses on me and my behavior and whether i'm good or bad enough or do or don't know the right information about jesus or something that's not the gospel and that's certainly not the story of the bible the story of the bible is about not my behavior as the focus it's about god's activity and god's purposes and what god is doing in our world through jesus that is good news for our world you guys with me here and what is that and it's that god's kingdom god's reign and his rule over our world has arrived in the person of jesus which means that jesus is here to address some kind of problem and he's going to resolve this problem through what he does in the next you know pages that you're going to read in the gospel of mark and that is the good news and it's a different story than this one right here so the kingdom of god um you can read about jesus talks all the time about the kingdom of god if you read the gospel according to matthew that comes right before mark jesus will call it the kingdom of god or also sometimes what the kingdom of heaven kingdom of god the kingdom of heaven jesus used both terms and the kingdom of god in the kingdom of heaven is not somewhere that you go after you die it's something that has arrived in jesus now i'm going to draw something a little more but first i just there's a simpler way to do this um a friend friend and i in portland made a video to try and help kind of explore and unpack this do you want to see it great so let's watch that so in the bible the ideas of heaven and earth are ways of talking about god's space and our space so i understand our space really well we live here there's trees rivers mountains but my understanding of god's space gets a little fuzzy and what we do get in the bible are images trying to help us grasp god's space which is basically inconceivable to us so these are two very different types of spaces yes they're they're different in their nature but here's what's really interesting is that in the bible these are not always separate spaces so think of heaven and earth as like different dimensions that can overlap in the same exact space so we talk a lot about going to heaven after we die but this idea of heaven and earth overlapping we don't talk a lot about that which is kind of crazy because the union of heaven and earth is what the story of the bible is all about how they were once fully united and then driven apart and about how god is bringing them back together once again so let's go back to the beginning where heaven and earth they're completely overlapping yeah this is what the bible's description of the garden of eden is all about it's a place where god and humanity dwelt together perfectly no separation and humans then partner with god and building a flourishing beautiful world and so on but as humans we wanted to do things a different way we wanted god out and we wanted to create a world apart from him yeah so we have these two spaces now and the bible actually uses lots of different kinds of words and phrases to refer to these two spaces to make a clear distinction so you've said that these spaces can overlap though so explain how that works yeah this is where we have to start talking about temples because in the biblical world you experience god's presence by going to a temple that's where heaven and earth overlap now there are two types of temples described in the bible one is a tabernacle basically a tent that was built by moses and the other was this massive building made by solomon and these temples were decorated with fruit trees and flowers and images of angels and all kinds of gold and jewels and so on and these are designed to make you feel like you're going back to the garden and at the center of the temple was a place called the holy of holies which was like the hot spot of god's presence now we can go and be with god again but not so fast because the temple also creates a problem so god's space is full of his presence and goodness and justice and beauty but human space is full of sin and injustice and the ugliness that results so how do these spaces overlap if they're so different and they're in conflict with each other this was resolved through animal sacrifice yeah that's kind of weird what do animal sacrifices have to do with this yeah the the idea is this animal sacrifices somehow they absorb the sin when the animal dies in your place and it creates a clean space so to speak where you are now free to enter into the temple and be in god's presence okay so if i'm an israelite and i live in jerusalem i might be able to be in god's presence but you said the story of the bible is all of heaven and earth reuniting right so we have to keep going in the story where we come to jesus in the new testament and in the gospel of john we hear this claim that god became human in jesus and made his dwelling among us now this word dwelling is really curious it literally it means he set up a tabernacle among us and so what john is claiming right here is that jesus is a temple he is now the place where heaven and earth overlap what's interesting about jesus is that he isn't staying in this safe clean space he's running around hanging out with sinners he's healing people of their sicknesses and forgiving people of their sins he's basically creating little pockets of heaven where people can be in god's presence but he's doing it out there in the middle of the world of sin and death and he keeps telling everyone that the kingdom of heaven is at hand and he even told his followers to pray regularly that god's kingdom come and that his will be done here on earth just as it is in heaven but a lot of people are threatened by jesus and they kill him which seems to spoil this whole plan to reunite heaven and earth but we we have to go back to a scene earlier on in jesus story where john the baptist saw jesus and said behold this is the lamb of god who takes away the sin of the world so jesus isn't just talked about as being a temple he's also talked about as being the temple sacrifice yeah so so the cross is now the place where jesus absorbs sin to create a clean space that is not limited like animal sacrifices jesus's sacrifice has the power to keep spreading and spreading and reuniting more and more of heaven and earth and this is all really great but it leaves one big question in my mind which is what happens when i die don't i just fly over to god's space to be with jesus yeah so a few times in the new testament we learn that christians will be with jesus in heaven after they die but that is not the focus of the bible story the focus is on how heaven and earth are being reunited through jesus and will be completely brought together one day when he returns so in the book of revelation we get this beautiful image of the garden of eden now in the form of a city coming to end the age of sin and death by redeeming all of human history in a renewed creation and god's space and human space completely overlap once again um uh yeah yeah so a couple things is that helpful so where it's one of these things where we're trying to change our whole sense of what the story of the bible is and that's a slow sometimes uncomfortable process so so what i'm saying is the story of the bible is the story about how heaven and earth got ripped apart and that that was not god's will that's something about that happened in the story that went wrong right so god god wants to partner and rule his good world together with these dignified image-bearing human beings and as you know you saw in the funny scene right there that that goes wrong not because something was wrong in the way god set up the deal it's because something went wrong inside of human beings right there's this this urge this urge to not trust god's definition of good and evil and to and to to seize autonomy and independence and to define good and evil as i see fit and define it from for ourselves and here's what's crucially important and this is a very simple way to think about communicating this and why this story is wrong if you look at the first sentence of the bible it says in the beginning god made heavens and what does it not say it doesn't say in the beginning god made heaven and earth in hell god didn't make whatever hell is god didn't make it it's nowhere to be found on page one of your bible right what god made is heaven and earth and what does god think about it it's very good it's very good so whatever hell is it comes into the story later and if you're familiar with the story how it works hell or evil or sin the various names that it's called in the bible is something that humans have created by our decision to seize autonomy from god now how do i know that hell is an appropriate word to talk about this jesus's brother jesus brother wrote a letter that's in our in your bible right it's called the letter of james it's very interesting and jesus brother who he hung out with jesus a lot i'm i'm bound to trust the man when he says he's representing the teachings of jesus james talks about the pat in chapter three talks about the power of the the tongue and how the human tongue has the power to to bless and praise god the creator but at the same time the human tongue has the ability to gossip about people and to tear down their character and to speak ill and poorly of them and james says this it's flabbergasting he says when humans do that with their tongues he says their tongues are lit on fire by hell are you with me now what are the implications of that the implications that hell isn't just something about like the end of the game hell is a reality that is present now it's a reality that humans unleash on each other and on god's good world to ruin and destroy relationships and to destroy people hell is something that we have created on earth and god hates hell and he the story of the bible is a story about god wanting to heal his world and get the hell out of earth are you with me that's the story of the bible it's god hates hell because what it hell is about the unleashing of selfishness and evil and the breakdown and degrading of dignified image-bearing human beings that's what hell is and just the book of genesis tells the story of genesis chapters 3 through 11 known as the story of the fall but that's what's happening it's humans unleashing hell on earth and god hates it because he loves his good world and he loves human beings who are made in his image that's what the story of the bible is and jesus comes onto the scene announcing good news the time has come and heaven is here to invade earth and to confront evil and just start reading through the gospel of mark and what will you see jesus doing you will see him confronting hell and its disastrous effects on human beings and it takes the form of him casting evil personal spiritual evil out of people it has to do with jesus confronting the breakdown of human relationships go to the gospel of matthew and listen to how jesus talks about hell and here's here's the context in which jesus mentions hell jesus hates hell and he hates what hell does to human beings and he hates where it leads human beings on a path so jesus so here's something we can all agree on and jesus would agree with us we can all agree that the sexual abuse of children for money is wrong and that it's it's a plague it's a hellfire plague on our world we give it a more comfortable name called sex trafficking to like not think about what the reality is we hate it we want it gone from our world god also hates sex trafficking jesus hates sex trafficking but he actually he actually takes it more seriously than we do because see we want to get rid of sex trafficking jesus wants to get rid of lust from from his world right he talks about the root the root desire to use another human being for my personal gratification jesus is more serious than we are about evil in our world see we look out at our world and we we see the ravage of racism and and genocide that has resulted in recent history we want that gone from our world jesus also wants that out of his world but he's even more serious about it than we are right because he doesn't want to just get rid of racism right and genocide he wants to get rid of pride and contempt and rage from the human heart you with me see what are genocide and sex trafficking they're raging hell fires destroying our world but they're ignited by these small sparks of these deep rooted distortions in the human heart and mind jesus wants to get the hell out of his world and he wants to get the hell out of you and that's good news it's good news is it it's good news but it's a double-edged sword right because it's sort of like okay i want god to get evil out of this world but i want him to do it without having to get rid of me you know i'm saying like that's this is the hard truth of jesus it's like we've met the enemy and he is that's not the greatest news to hear but yet at the same time it is it depends on who says it to you right if somebody is who's on intent on mowing you down with m16 thinks you're the enemy that's bad news but if if a surgeon right of a surgeon comes with a knife and he needs to cut you open to take out some life-threatening thing that's that's poisoning your body is that good news is it going to be painful it's the story of the bible it's the story of the bible jesus is more serious about this than we are and so how does how does jesus the great physician come to heal us and to get the hell out of us he does it it's this it's what mark tells us just go finish reading the gospel of mark jesus lives this hell-free existence he shows us what a human life is as god becomes human to actually be the kind of human that we are all made and called to be but perpetually fail to be it's this hell free life that only gives and that only loves and that's only others centered and it's act it's so offensive and so scandalous and so repulsive to those around jesus and what he calls out of people and how he calls people out for their religious hypocrisy and their pride and their rage at their anger it's it's the paradox of the gospel is that god so loves and is committed to his broken world ruined by the hell that we've made here he actually allows the hell that we've created to overwhelm him and to destroy him right he allow he allows the hell that we've created to exhaust its power on him and we call this this the moment of the cross and the moment of the cross is the healing it's the paradoxical death and resurrection of jesus and the death and resurrection of our of our world are you with me in jesus the whole train wreck of human history and its consequences of evil and of sin exhaust its power in jesus death but because this god is so in love with his world and with these these compromised fractured image-bearing human beings he will not let hell get the last word and the resurrection of jesus is this moment of new life it's a moment that speaks of god's love and eternal commitment to our good world and the resurrection of jesus is represents this offer in this opportunity of life of a hell-free existence in the present and on into the future you guys with me here repent and believe the good news god wants to get the hell out of you and that's the best news right it's the best news you could imagine and it's also hard news to hear and so how does the story of the bible end you know i had that image there in the video of heaven and earth coming together but what i didn't address was this what's where does this have to go it's got to get out of here somehow and so go look at the last page of the bible where where and what is hell on the last page of the bible hell is god's monument as c.s lewis says to human dignity and choice if someone refuses to be healed by the great physician god will honor that decision but what god will not do is allow hell to continue ruining his good world and so the image that the last page of the bible uses is of the great new garden city of heaven and earth married together again and hell is outside the city it's outside the city god it's god's mercy to contain human evil and to not let it eternally ravage his good world and his good image-bearing humans and for those who refuse to participate in god's re-creation of heaven and earth he honors that decision they remain outside the city now that there's all kinds of details that we want to know that the bible does not give us about this what it does is it tells us good news about the person of jesus it tells us that jesus is so committed to getting the hell out of his world and out of you that he lived for you that he died for you and that he was raised for you turn to him and believe the good news how you guys doing this is the this is the story the bible is telling and it's at the same time a challenging story that will still be challenging and offensive and difficult to talk about but i'm telling you it's a it's a compelling story because your friend who doesn't believe in jesus also wants this are you with me you your neighbor wants the same thing that god wants are you with me right now that's going to involve a whole lot of conversation but i thought this is a compelling story if we can if we can help ourselves understand it and and you you will not be compelled to share the story personally unless you actually experiencing the loving healing power of jesus begin to remove the hell from you and to give you new life and so as we come to you know the conclusion of our gathering here let's just let's just focus right there you know we have this time and space to sing and to pray and here's what i'd encourage you to do i'd encourage you to to get the names of some people that you love and that you care about and don't like put them on your list just pray a blessing over them and pray that god would open up an opportunity for you to simply ask them questions about what they think and to just prepare that that ground so that when the time is right and when the moment is right and when they want to receive it that you can talk about how much jesus loves them and what he did for them because that's the kind of god revealed in this story amen let me close in word of prayer jesus thank you that you don't leave us to our own devices jesus we're aware that we daily choose that independence we choose hell in a million small and large different ways jesus thank you that our that are our foolishness that are short-sightedness doesn't deter you it doesn't compel you to stay away from us but rather you have moved towards us in your grace and in your love jesus thank you for the compelling nature of the good news jesus we want evil and hell to be rid of our lives and of our minds and our hearts and we want it to be rid from our world jesus thank you for your commitment and for your character and for the hope that's offered us in the good news about you we pray in your name jesus amen yeah amen i hope you found that as deeply compelling and moving and challenging and full of hope for the future that god has planned for our very good world as what i did when i watched it last monday morning then he finishes at the end with this little word amen and amen means let it be so let it be so and as i watch that something in my heart resonates and says lord let it be so thank you that it is going to look like this and our world is going to be full of hope and free of sin and different to how we live right now friends can i ask you and encourage you to do what he suggests in that video to take a moment where we pray for friends and pray a blessing over friends who don't know jesus maybe you invited them to alpha maybe you're just having some conversations with them on the side maybe they work with you maybe you're married to someone who doesn't follow jesus and i'd love to ask you just to pray a blessing pray for opportunities to share the love and kindness of jesus with them and then this morning in our groups we're going to break bread together we're going to pray we're going to enjoy being with one another and we'll see you next week i'm going to be speaking on part 2 of returning to the true story it's going to be incredibly practical around how we do that how we have faith catalysts that grow our faith but that's for next week see you then god bless you guys love you [Music] you
