  • How many people claim
  • 00:00:01.254 --> 00:00:02.589
  • To get saved, but their cravings never change.
  • 00:00:02.589 --> 00:00:06.426
  • You can scroll on your phone
  • 00:00:07.027 --> 00:00:08.661
  • For four hours, but you can't spend four minutes in prayer.
  • 00:00:08.661 --> 00:00:12.198
  • Something's gotta change because you say.
  • 00:00:13.066 --> 00:00:14.634
  • If it was about me, i would keep scrolling.
  • 00:00:14.634 --> 00:00:17.137
  • But it's about this density, so let me destroy.
  • 00:00:17.137 --> 00:00:20.807
  • Oh, come on, somebody.
  • 00:00:21.307 --> 00:00:28.214
  • Oh, 000.
  • 00:00:28.481 --> 00:00:35.622
  • Come here babe.
  • 00:00:35.989 --> 00:00:38.158
  • Come on. look at this outfit.
  • 00:00:38.158 --> 00:00:39.726
  • Like a rhinestone cowboy.
  • 00:00:39.726 --> 00:00:45.532
  • Look,
  • 00:00:45.765 --> 00:00:47.400
  • She's wearing my pants.
  • 00:00:47.400 --> 00:00:48.568
  • That's all right. so.
  • 00:00:48.568 --> 00:00:51.071
  • But here's the thing.
  • 00:00:51.071 --> 00:00:53.139
  • What we learned in our marriage was that i wasn't evil.
  • 00:00:53.139 --> 00:00:57.343
  • I was wise in some areas, and i was a fool.
  • 00:00:58.278 --> 00:01:00.680
  • That was being given an opportunity to become wise.
  • 00:01:00.680 --> 00:01:04.017
  • And every correction could become
  • 00:01:04.751 --> 00:01:06.619
  • A connection.
  • 00:01:06.619 --> 00:01:09.889
  • And every argument
  • 00:01:10.323 --> 00:01:11.591
  • Could become another level of intimacy.
  • 00:01:11.591 --> 00:01:14.394
  • Amen. okay.
  • 00:01:14.727 --> 00:01:16.996
  • Okay,
  • 00:01:17.230 --> 00:01:19.065
  • So let's look at the evil.
  • 00:01:19.065 --> 00:01:21.334
  • Now that we've gotten that out of the way, the evil.
  • 00:01:21.334 --> 00:01:25.071
  • How do you know somebody is evil?
  • 00:01:25.805 --> 00:01:27.240
  • They intend harm.
  • 00:01:27.240 --> 00:01:29.109
  • The third category in proverbs, which is basically the rest of the
  • 00:01:29.109 --> 00:01:32.312
  • Scripture, points to what's called the scoffer, the wicked,
  • 00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:35.648
  • The one who plots evil.
  • 00:01:35.648 --> 00:01:37.450
  • This is not just someone who's immature like i was in other seasons.
  • 00:01:37.450 --> 00:01:42.088
  • This some.
  • 00:01:42.388 --> 00:01:44.190
  • This is someone who is willing to harm somebody who's willing to lie.
  • 00:01:44.190 --> 00:01:46.826
  • Somebody who's willing to destroy.
  • 00:01:47.594 --> 00:01:49.095
  • This is the abusive spouse, the manipulative relative
  • 00:01:49.095 --> 00:01:52.765
  • Who lies and turns people against you in your own family.
  • 00:01:52.765 --> 00:01:56.703
  • The person who seems to enjoy when you're in pain,
  • 00:01:57.737 --> 00:02:00.240
  • And the predator who uses guilt and even religion to trap you.
  • 00:02:01.407 --> 00:02:05.545
  • Oh yeah, we're calling it all out.
  • 00:02:06.312 --> 00:02:08.781
  • Jesus talked about wolves in sheep's clothing.
  • 00:02:08.781 --> 00:02:12.152
  • What does that mean?
  • 00:02:12.619 --> 00:02:13.920
  • Well, if you're a sheep and a family of sheep,
  • 00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:16.122
  • Then they have to put on your dna to actually.
  • 00:02:16.122 --> 00:02:19.459
  • Oh, come on.
  • 00:02:19.792 --> 00:02:21.127
  • They'll look just like you.
  • 00:02:21.127 --> 00:02:22.662
  • But they're the ones who abuse you.
  • 00:02:22.662 --> 00:02:24.964
  • And jesus was talking about this.
  • 00:02:24.964 --> 00:02:26.666
  • They sometimes even look religious.
  • 00:02:26.666 --> 00:02:29.135
  • They might know bible verses, but they devour people.
  • 00:02:29.135 --> 00:02:32.605
  • Scripture never tells you to let wolves keep eating you
  • 00:02:33.706 --> 00:02:36.776
  • In the name of forgiveness.
  • 00:02:36.776 --> 00:02:38.845
  • Forgiveness does not give them license to keep hurting you.
  • 00:02:38.845 --> 00:02:42.949
  • So what's the strategy with this evil behavior with people who are acting evil?
  • 00:02:44.517 --> 00:02:47.720
  • The biblical response is distance protection.
  • 00:02:48.655 --> 00:02:52.091
  • And involving the right authorities when needed.
  • 00:02:53.059 --> 00:02:56.462
  • I know it's quiet.
  • 00:02:56.896 --> 00:02:58.398
  • Sometimes love looks like a restraining order.
  • 00:02:58.398 --> 00:03:01.401
  • But i must say it again.
  • 00:03:01.401 --> 00:03:03.870
  • Sometimes love looks like you are getting a restraining order.
  • 00:03:03.870 --> 00:03:08.408
  • Sometimes love looks like you will not be alone with my children ever.
  • 00:03:09.809 --> 00:03:16.149
  • Statistically, the abuse is going to happen by somebody they know.
  • 00:03:17.483 --> 00:03:21.588
  • So you got to audit the relationship.
  • 00:03:22.388 --> 00:03:23.289
  • Are you wise?
  • 00:03:23.289 --> 00:03:24.591
  • Are you a fool or are you evil? and you.
  • 00:03:24.591 --> 00:03:27.026
  • And for you will never be alone with my child.
  • 00:03:27.026 --> 00:03:30.763
  • And that's what love looks like.
  • 00:03:30.763 --> 00:03:32.732
  • Sometimes love looks like i'm going to let the courts handle this one now.
  • 00:03:32.732 --> 00:03:37.437
  • Sometimes love looks like no contact.
  • 00:03:38.204 --> 00:03:41.174
  • Yeah, right.
  • 00:03:41.507 --> 00:03:42.775
  • You are not god's sacrifice
  • 00:03:42.775 --> 00:03:45.078
  • To keep an abusive family member comfortable.
  • 00:03:45.078 --> 00:03:48.348
  • Now hear me clearly.
  • 00:03:48.815 --> 00:03:50.516
  • This sermon is not licensed to label anyone who annoys you as evil.
  • 00:03:50.516 --> 00:03:54.821
  • So you can cut them off and.
  • 00:03:55.421 --> 00:03:57.323
  • Oh, i'm just going to i'm going to feel holy now because they annoy me.
  • 00:03:57.323 --> 00:04:00.026
  • No, no.
  • 00:04:00.026 --> 00:04:01.894
  • This category is for patterns of abuse, manipulation, deceit and harm.
  • 00:04:01.894 --> 00:04:05.531
  • And if you suspect that you're here, you should not try to discern this alone.
  • 00:04:07.066 --> 00:04:10.203
  • You need wise counsel.
  • 00:04:10.703 --> 00:04:12.538
  • You need pastors, christian counselors, mentors, and in some cases,
  • 00:04:12.538 --> 00:04:17.844
  • You even need to bring in law enforcement to help you discern what to do next.
  • 00:04:19.412 --> 00:04:22.515
  • So there's three types of people wise.
  • 00:04:23.349 --> 00:04:25.318
  • They listen and change.
  • 00:04:25.318 --> 00:04:27.120
  • Foolish.
  • 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:28.254
  • They refuse to learn and they repeat.
  • 00:04:28.254 --> 00:04:30.356
  • So we know that we know that well.
  • 00:04:30.356 --> 00:04:32.759
  • But then evil, they actually intend you harm.
  • 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:35.728
  • And here's the key.
  • 00:04:35.728 --> 00:04:37.030
  • Love is not treating them all the same.
  • 00:04:37.030 --> 00:04:40.333
  • Love is doing what is truly best in god's eyes.
  • 00:04:41.267 --> 00:04:44.470
  • Even when it's hard, even when it doesn't
  • 00:04:45.338 --> 00:04:47.206
  • Look nice on the surface.
  • 00:04:47.206 --> 00:04:50.543
  • So let's zoom in on jesus for a moment.
  • 00:04:51.411 --> 00:04:54.280
  • Jesus grew up in a real family.
  • 00:04:54.914 --> 00:04:57.817
  • He had a real mother who was not perfect.
  • 00:04:57.817 --> 00:05:01.187
  • He had real siblings who were not perfect, and he learned obedience.
  • 00:05:02.555 --> 00:05:05.858
  • He lived under his parents roof.
  • 00:05:06.492 --> 00:05:08.328
  • He had rules in that house and jesus was not anti-family on the cross.
  • 00:05:08.328 --> 00:05:13.533
  • Literally, he still cared for his own mother, making
  • 00:05:14.567 --> 00:05:16.903
  • Sure that john would look after her on the cross.
  • 00:05:16.903 --> 00:05:20.206
  • That's honor honoring his mother while he's dying.
  • 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.309
  • But jesus also refused to let his own earthly
  • 00:05:24.243 --> 00:05:26.713
  • Family pull him away from his father's will.
  • 00:05:26.713 --> 00:05:30.049
  • So in mark chapter three, his family comes to take him away.
  • 00:05:31.250 --> 00:05:34.220
  • And they think that he's out of his mind.
  • 00:05:35.121 --> 00:05:36.989
  • And people tell him, hey, your mother and your brothers are outside.
  • 00:05:36.989 --> 00:05:39.726
  • They're looking for you.
  • 00:05:39.726 --> 00:05:41.728
  • And jesus says, whoever does the will of god is my brother and sister and mother.
  • 00:05:41.728 --> 00:05:46.265
  • And mark chapter three, verse 35.
  • 00:05:46.265 --> 00:05:48.735
  • So he's not rejecting mary.
  • 00:05:48.735 --> 00:05:50.970
  • He's redefining what family is.
  • 00:05:50.970 --> 00:05:53.639
  • So when your family's like,
  • 00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:55.241
  • I can't believe you go to that cult vh1 church, i don't know.
  • 00:05:55.241 --> 00:05:58.311
  • I'm only there for a couple hours once a week,
  • 00:05:59.278 --> 00:06:01.180
  • Just about the same amount of time that you spend at outback steakhouse.
  • 00:06:01.180 --> 00:06:04.717
  • Or the same amount of time that you spend watching your football game every day.
  • 00:06:06.252 --> 00:06:08.488
  • And that doesn't make the nfl a cult or that restaurant a call.
  • 00:06:09.689 --> 00:06:12.325
  • But i will tell you this i'm not rejecting you.
  • 00:06:13.259 --> 00:06:15.094
  • I'm redefining family.
  • 00:06:15.094 --> 00:06:17.096
  • And my family isn't just the ones with my hair color and my skin color.
  • 00:06:17.096 --> 00:06:21.667
  • My family are those that do the will of the father.
  • 00:06:22.668 --> 00:06:24.871
  • I'm not rejecting you.
  • 00:06:25.371 --> 00:06:27.206
  • I redefine family, and i'm spending some time with my whole family.
  • 00:06:27.206 --> 00:06:31.444
  • Just like i spend time with you.
  • 00:06:32.078 --> 00:06:35.081
  • Family is not just who shares our dna.
  • 00:06:35.915 --> 00:06:39.252
  • Family is who shares our father's will.
  • 00:06:40.086 --> 00:06:42.422
  • And that means loyalty to god's will.
  • 00:06:43.222 --> 00:06:44.724
  • Actually, now comes before loyalty to family patterns.
  • 00:06:44.724 --> 00:06:48.361
  • In romans chapter 12, verse 18, it says, if possible,
  • 00:06:49.429 --> 00:06:52.298
  • So far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.
  • 00:06:52.298 --> 00:06:56.335
  • Listen to this carefully.
  • 00:06:56.903 --> 00:06:58.805
  • It doesn't say you are responsible to make everybody at peace with you.
  • 00:06:58.805 --> 00:07:03.743
  • Yeah.
  • 00:07:03.976 --> 00:07:05.211
  • You are. okay.
  • 00:07:05.211 --> 00:07:06.379
  • Let me help my codependent friends.
  • 00:07:06.379 --> 00:07:09.649
  • It's not your responsibility
  • 00:07:10.249 --> 00:07:12.084
  • To make everybody at peace.
  • 00:07:12.084 --> 00:07:15.388
  • It's your responsibility to be the peacemaker.
  • 00:07:16.322 --> 00:07:18.491
  • But they have to choose what they do after that moment.
  • 00:07:19.592 --> 00:07:21.661
  • You cannot control your dad's repentance.
  • 00:07:22.528 --> 00:07:24.931
  • You cannot control your sister's maturity.
  • 00:07:24.931 --> 00:07:27.500
  • You cannot control your ex's behavior.
  • 00:07:27.500 --> 00:07:30.770
  • Come on, the pope. how can.
  • 00:07:31.370 --> 00:07:34.173
  • You can
  • 00:07:34.407 --> 00:07:35.575
  • Control your choices, your boundaries,
  • 00:07:35.575 --> 00:07:38.344
  • Your responses, your access and your tone with the wise.
  • 00:07:39.479 --> 00:07:43.483
  • Peace usually comes through honest conversations
  • 00:07:44.484 --> 00:07:46.419
  • And a little bit of grace with the foolish.
  • 00:07:46.419 --> 00:07:49.121
  • Peace often requires clear limits and lower expectations.
  • 00:07:49.121 --> 00:07:53.659
  • With the evil, the only possible peace may be through
  • 00:07:54.727 --> 00:07:57.096
  • Protection and through distance.
  • 00:07:57.096 --> 00:08:00.399
  • You're going to find some people claiming to be my family on the internet.
  • 00:08:01.868 --> 00:08:04.203
  • Don't believe them?
  • 00:08:04.203 --> 00:08:06.506
  • My family's the one who does the will of my father.
  • 00:08:06.506 --> 00:08:09.842
  • There's going to be some people that tell some family stories.
  • 00:08:11.010 --> 00:08:13.145
  • Don't believe in my family's story.
  • 00:08:13.145 --> 00:08:14.680
  • Is abraham, isaac and jacob. jesus.
  • 00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:18.351
  • I got a different family heritage, a different family story.
  • 00:08:19.585 --> 00:08:21.587
  • And some of you have been taught well, good christians.
  • 00:08:22.655 --> 00:08:24.156
  • They never say no, especially to family.
  • 00:08:24.156 --> 00:08:27.159
  • But that's not scripture.
  • 00:08:27.159 --> 00:08:28.461
  • That's manipulation. wearing a bible verse.
  • 00:08:28.461 --> 00:08:31.964
  • God is not asking you to sacrifice your sanity.
  • 00:08:32.899 --> 00:08:36.369
  • He's not asking you to sacrifice your safety.
  • 00:08:37.336 --> 00:08:39.739
  • He not of you, not of your children to keep some kind of dysfunctional family.
  • 00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:44.410
  • It's not comfortable.
  • 00:08:44.911 --> 00:08:46.812
  • You might be thinking, okay, what am i going to do now?
  • 00:08:46.812 --> 00:08:50.149
  • What do i actually do with all of this?
  • 00:08:50.983 --> 00:08:52.351
  • Let's talk about three simple steps.
  • 00:08:52.351 --> 00:08:54.820
  • Clarity
  • 00:08:54.820 --> 00:08:56.989
  • One. boundary and community.
  • 00:08:56.989 --> 00:09:00.259
  • In a moment, we're going to pray
  • 00:09:00.893 --> 00:09:02.728
  • Some of these questions together because i know how heavy this is.
  • 00:09:02.728 --> 00:09:06.065
  • You can even whisper them in your heart if you're sitting next to them right now.
  • 00:09:07.667 --> 00:09:10.770
  • Holy spirit, show me.
  • 00:09:11.270 --> 00:09:14.240
  • Come on. let's do this together.
  • 00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:16.075
  • Who is wise in my family?
  • 00:09:16.075 --> 00:09:18.411
  • Holy spirit, show me who is wise in my family.
  • 00:09:18.411 --> 00:09:21.013
  • Who listens? who apologizes?
  • 00:09:21.013 --> 00:09:23.816
  • Who's trying to grow?
  • 00:09:23.816 --> 00:09:25.918
  • How can i invest more time and more of my energy into the wise people in my family?
  • 00:09:25.918 --> 00:09:31.057
  • Holy spirit,
  • 00:09:31.390 --> 00:09:32.792
  • Show me who's acting foolish right now.
  • 00:09:33.626 --> 00:09:36.896
  • Who? who always has an excuse,
  • 00:09:37.530 --> 00:09:40.533
  • Who makes me feel crazy because every conversation
  • 00:09:41.567 --> 00:09:44.537
  • Circles back to me being too sensitive.
  • 00:09:44.537 --> 00:09:47.840
  • Holy spirit, where do i need to stop over explaining?
  • 00:09:48.874 --> 00:09:51.744
  • Man, i feel the anointing so strong right now.
  • 00:09:52.712 --> 00:09:54.981
  • Before i finish this prayer, i have to say something.
  • 00:09:56.015 --> 00:09:57.850
  • I hesitated to say this.
  • 00:09:57.850 --> 00:10:00.019
  • Family is god's design
  • 00:10:00.019 --> 00:10:03.289
  • And god is our father,
  • 00:10:03.789 --> 00:10:06.859
  • Who created a father named adam.
  • 00:10:07.493 --> 00:10:10.296
  • And then adam was a woman who became a wife,
  • 00:10:11.230 --> 00:10:13.499
  • And then she became a mother who then had children.
  • 00:10:14.533 --> 00:10:17.203
  • And the very first generation of those children, cain and abel.
  • 00:10:18.404 --> 00:10:20.973
  • There was dysfunction, but before that there was dysfunction.
  • 00:10:22.208 --> 00:10:25.645
  • If you're near one of our campuses, i want to give you
  • 00:10:26.712 --> 00:10:28.748
  • A personal invitation to check out v1 church.
  • 00:10:28.748 --> 00:10:32.718
  • There's no way i can describe the atmosphere of revival in the experience.
  • 00:10:34.186 --> 00:10:37.323
  • If you've never driven up or driven in, you know,
  • 00:10:38.324 --> 00:10:40.893
  • Let me just tell you it's a powerful atmosphere
  • 00:10:41.861 --> 00:10:43.729
  • And a bunch of people who really love the lord and want to get to know you.
  • 00:10:43.729 --> 00:10:48.034
  • So let us know when you're coming and i'll see you at v1 church.
  • 00:10:49.368 --> 00:10:54.907
  • So satan absolutely hates family, and he hates
  • 00:10:55.875 --> 00:10:59.345
  • When family operates in complete and total unity with god's will.
  • 00:10:59.345 --> 00:11:03.749
  • And so here's a thing you need, and i don't care.
  • 00:11:04.750 --> 00:11:07.019
  • I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for what i'm about to say,
  • 00:11:07.019 --> 00:11:10.322
  • But a healthy family looks like a mom and a dad
  • 00:11:11.290 --> 00:11:14.226
  • With a heavenly father
  • 00:11:14.727 --> 00:11:17.530
  • And children that are being raised in the faith.
  • 00:11:17.530 --> 00:11:21.167
  • Now, i didn't have that
  • 00:11:21.667 --> 00:11:23.536
  • Growing up, and i still turned out all right
  • 00:11:23.536 --> 00:11:26.939
  • Because when my biological father walked in, my spiritual father walked in.
  • 00:11:28.441 --> 00:11:31.177
  • When he walked out, my heavenly father walked in.
  • 00:11:32.211 --> 00:11:34.280
  • But according to paul, according to james,
  • 00:11:34.280 --> 00:11:38.617
  • According to the new testament writers,
  • 00:11:39.452 --> 00:11:42.388
  • Having a relationship with god is not the only thing.
  • 00:11:43.456 --> 00:11:45.791
  • But god also gives us leaders
  • 00:11:46.425 --> 00:11:48.794
  • And leaders in
  • 00:11:49.161 --> 00:11:50.262
  • The local church serve as a father.
  • 00:11:50.262 --> 00:11:53.299
  • And it's paul said to me, may taste,
  • 00:11:54.066 --> 00:11:55.668
  • Imitate me, follow me as i follow christ.
  • 00:11:55.668 --> 00:11:58.971
  • And the word there is me may taste in greek it means do an impression of jesus.
  • 00:11:58.971 --> 00:12:04.310
  • As you see visibly my impression of jesus.
  • 00:12:05.211 --> 00:12:07.680
  • That's all it is.
  • 00:12:08.114 --> 00:12:09.982
  • So if there's anything good or redeemable you've ever seen about mike
  • 00:12:09.982 --> 00:12:13.018
  • Seeking a rally, it's just me doing a impression of jesus, right?
  • 00:12:13.018 --> 00:12:18.390
  • Just like a michael jackson impersonator.
  • 00:12:19.291 --> 00:12:21.393
  • You put on the michael jackson wig, you put on the michael jackson outfit,
  • 00:12:21.393 --> 00:12:24.997
  • And you know it's not michael jackson,
  • 00:12:24.997 --> 00:12:26.465
  • But you're like, man, that's a good impression.
  • 00:12:26.465 --> 00:12:29.034
  • I'm not jesus.
  • 00:12:29.034 --> 00:12:30.836
  • But every year of my journey with jesus
  • 00:12:30.836 --> 00:12:33.439
  • Is me getting better at my impression.
  • 00:12:33.439 --> 00:12:36.709
  • Me matters.
  • 00:12:37.042 --> 00:12:38.210
  • So guess what?
  • 00:12:38.210 --> 00:12:39.311
  • I do believe in spiritual fathers.
  • 00:12:39.311 --> 00:12:41.747
  • I don't care, there's a lot of haters online.
  • 00:12:41.747 --> 00:12:43.983
  • All the spiritual father is is somebody just like paul.
  • 00:12:43.983 --> 00:12:47.353
  • Paul says you have many teachers, but you only have one
  • 00:12:48.420 --> 00:12:50.256
  • Father and it's me, a father in the faith.
  • 00:12:50.256 --> 00:12:53.793
  • And of course, we have a heavenly father.
  • 00:12:54.660 --> 00:12:56.095
  • You need a church with a pastor, not a perfect pastor,
  • 00:12:56.095 --> 00:13:00.332
  • But a wise pastor who's saying, follow me as i follow jesus.
  • 00:13:01.500 --> 00:13:07.573
  • And the
  • 00:13:07.807 --> 00:13:09.675
  • Reason why i got so choked up trying to lead you in that prayer is because
  • 00:13:09.675 --> 00:13:12.878
  • I have a lot of scars on my back in the spirit,
  • 00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:17.249
  • And i've learned a lot about family.
  • 00:13:18.017 --> 00:13:20.286
  • I've walked one of my daughters through her teen years.
  • 00:13:21.353 --> 00:13:23.989
  • I'm walking my second daughter
  • 00:13:24.623 --> 00:13:26.225
  • Through her child childhood now into her, a young young adult.
  • 00:13:26.225 --> 00:13:29.361
  • She's coming into that puberty time.
  • 00:13:29.361 --> 00:13:31.263
  • Pray for me.
  • 00:13:31.263 --> 00:13:33.232
  • And i'm trying to give you what i learned the hard way,
  • 00:13:33.232 --> 00:13:36.735
  • Because what fathers are supposed to do is accelerate you and what what cost.
  • 00:13:38.237 --> 00:13:42.508
  • Julian, i years and marriage counseling.
  • 00:13:43.375 --> 00:13:44.677
  • I'll give it to you for free every sunday.
  • 00:13:44.677 --> 00:13:46.846
  • What took me years and years through fighting and wrestling with
  • 00:13:46.846 --> 00:13:50.516
  • With my own child.
  • 00:13:50.516 --> 00:13:51.784
  • I'll give it to you in a in a sermon on a sunday.
  • 00:13:51.784 --> 00:13:54.386
  • And this is god's intention.
  • 00:13:54.386 --> 00:13:55.821
  • The church is a family.
  • 00:13:55.821 --> 00:13:58.924
  • It's not a perfect family.
  • 00:13:59.491 --> 00:14:01.861
  • But the reason why there's so much division in churches
  • 00:14:01.861 --> 00:14:04.396
  • Is because there's divisions in our biological family,
  • 00:14:04.396 --> 00:14:07.099
  • And we don't have wisdom in our biological family,
  • 00:14:07.099 --> 00:14:09.602
  • Which means we come into church without that wisdom for our spiritual family.
  • 00:14:09.602 --> 00:14:14.874
  • So if you would open up your heart to me through this season
  • 00:14:16.041 --> 00:14:18.711
  • And allow me to help you with your family,
  • 00:14:18.711 --> 00:14:22.848
  • I also want to ask that you would become a family through the spirit.
  • 00:14:24.250 --> 00:14:26.919
  • That's what this is.
  • 00:14:27.386 --> 00:14:28.320
  • It's not just online viewership.
  • 00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.624
  • It's you're coming into the living room
  • 00:14:32.458 --> 00:14:33.459
  • To have a family,
  • 00:14:33.459 --> 00:14:36.362
  • And it would be one of the greatest privileges of my life
  • 00:14:36.362 --> 00:14:39.698
  • To serve as a spiritual father to you and to your children,
  • 00:14:40.866 --> 00:14:44.069
  • And to lead you in the things that i know and the things i don't know.
  • 00:14:45.437 --> 00:14:47.172
  • We're going to find out together over this next couple of weeks. so
  • 00:14:47.172 --> 00:14:51.844
  • Ask the holy spirit now, is there anyone acting evil towards me or my children?
  • 00:14:51.844 --> 00:14:56.682
  • Anyone who lies, manipulates, threatens, or consistently harms.
  • 00:14:57.917 --> 00:15:01.720
  • Who do i need to help to
  • 00:15:02.221 --> 00:15:03.489
  • Create distance from for safety and sanity?
  • 00:15:03.489 --> 00:15:06.959
  • But holy spirit,
  • 00:15:07.326 --> 00:15:09.461
  • Who do i get closer to
  • 00:15:09.461 --> 00:15:11.630
  • And who do i get farther away from?
  • 00:15:11.630 --> 00:15:14.333
  • So don't don't rush to slap labels on people.
  • 00:15:14.333 --> 00:15:17.002
  • Come on, church.
  • 00:15:17.002 --> 00:15:18.103
  • Ask god to show you the patterns.
  • 00:15:18.103 --> 00:15:20.472
  • Not not one bad day.
  • 00:15:20.472 --> 00:15:22.808
  • Not one slip up, but the patterns.
  • 00:15:22.808 --> 00:15:25.544
  • Because sometimes he'll surprise you.
  • 00:15:25.544 --> 00:15:27.579
  • The person that you assume was evil may just be immature,
  • 00:15:27.579 --> 00:15:31.483
  • May just be foolish, and they're still open to god.
  • 00:15:32.518 --> 00:15:34.353
  • Someone you thought was just difficult might in reality be deeply unsafe,
  • 00:15:34.353 --> 00:15:39.458
  • And you need to ask for true discernment.
  • 00:15:40.359 --> 00:15:42.728
  • So choose one boundary, not ten.
  • 00:15:42.728 --> 00:15:45.464
  • When people hear a message like this, the temptation
  • 00:15:45.464 --> 00:15:48.300
  • Is to go home and blow up your whole family system overnight.
  • 00:15:48.300 --> 00:15:51.570
  • I'm confronting everybody.
  • 00:15:52.137 --> 00:15:53.305
  • I'm cutting everybody off. no no, no.
  • 00:15:53.305 --> 00:15:54.907
  • By tuesday, you're going to be overwhelmed.
  • 00:15:54.907 --> 00:15:58.177
  • And so right now in this message,
  • 00:15:58.844 --> 00:16:01.647
  • We're not trying to fix your entire family tree.
  • 00:16:01.647 --> 00:16:04.516
  • We're trying to choose one wise next step.
  • 00:16:04.516 --> 00:16:07.786
  • This might look like what with with a wise person.
  • 00:16:08.821 --> 00:16:10.656
  • Hey, can we sit down this week i want to spend more time with you.
  • 00:16:10.656 --> 00:16:13.859
  • I want to talk honestly. i want to communicate.
  • 00:16:14.793 --> 00:16:16.562
  • I really want us to keep growing together with with one foolish person.
  • 00:16:16.562 --> 00:16:20.099
  • Hey, i love you, but.
  • 00:16:20.099 --> 00:16:21.633
  • But i'm not going to argue about this over text anymore.
  • 00:16:21.633 --> 00:16:24.636
  • And we're not going to have chatgpt wars anymore
  • 00:16:25.637 --> 00:16:27.740
  • If this conversation turns disrespectful.
  • 00:16:28.607 --> 00:16:30.142
  • I'm telling you now, i'm going to step away
  • 00:16:30.142 --> 00:16:33.345
  • With someone acting evil.
  • 00:16:33.912 --> 00:16:35.314
  • This is where you get counsel. this week.
  • 00:16:35.314 --> 00:16:37.616
  • You get support this week, and from now on i'm going to limit contact.
  • 00:16:37.616 --> 00:16:42.588
  • I'm not doing this to punish you.
  • 00:16:43.322 --> 00:16:44.823
  • I'm doing this to protect what god has entrusted to me
  • 00:16:44.823 --> 00:16:48.460
  • With my children, with my job, with this home.
  • 00:16:49.395 --> 00:16:51.130
  • And i don't have to scream.
  • 00:16:51.130 --> 00:16:52.364
  • I don't have to even justify.
  • 00:16:52.364 --> 00:16:54.166
  • I don't have to explain.
  • 00:16:54.166 --> 00:16:55.267
  • I don't have to convince.
  • 00:16:55.267 --> 00:16:57.436
  • I just i'm going to be clear and i'm going to be consistent.
  • 00:16:57.436 --> 00:17:00.372
  • So everybody ask yourself, what is one boundary
  • 00:17:00.372 --> 00:17:03.442
  • That i can set this week that aligns with wisdom and honors god?
  • 00:17:03.442 --> 00:17:08.280
  • You know
  • 00:17:08.547 --> 00:17:09.882
  • You are not
  • 00:17:10.215 --> 00:17:11.550
  • Meant to untangle this family trauma alone.
  • 00:17:11.550 --> 00:17:14.653
  • Some of you do need a good christian counselor.
  • 00:17:15.654 --> 00:17:17.689
  • Some of you need a small group.
  • 00:17:17.689 --> 00:17:20.192
  • And i'm just so overwhelmed.
  • 00:17:20.192 --> 00:17:21.560
  • I'm. i'm fighting tears today.
  • 00:17:21.560 --> 00:17:24.196
  • You guys don't understand. i'm not.
  • 00:17:24.196 --> 00:17:25.497
  • I don't care what our small groups line up is.
  • 00:17:25.497 --> 00:17:28.801
  • I just know when you read acts chapter two, verse 42,
  • 00:17:29.868 --> 00:17:31.904
  • They met in homes, around tables as well as meeting together.
  • 00:17:33.072 --> 00:17:35.974
  • And so there's there's healing that happens around tables.
  • 00:17:37.142 --> 00:17:39.211
  • This is why satan destroys the family.
  • 00:17:40.012 --> 00:17:41.747
  • Because your family is supposed to heal together at the table.
  • 00:17:41.747 --> 00:17:45.117
  • But that's where the brokenness happens.
  • 00:17:45.984 --> 00:17:46.952
  • So what what do we need to do?
  • 00:17:46.952 --> 00:17:48.754
  • We need a sign up for a small group, sign up for a fly crew, and god
  • 00:17:48.754 --> 00:17:52.157
  • Will exchange a broken table, a table full of pain and sorrow,
  • 00:17:52.157 --> 00:17:57.229
  • With a table full of unity in the local church.
  • 00:17:58.197 --> 00:18:00.466
  • And you may never have that healthy theo, that healthy uncle.
  • 00:18:01.733 --> 00:18:04.770
  • You may never have that health, the healthy,
  • 00:18:05.704 --> 00:18:07.106
  • But in the spirit you can't do the local church
  • 00:18:07.106 --> 00:18:09.408
  • When when a guy that's your uncle's age comes and puts his arm around
  • 00:18:09.408 --> 00:18:12.911
  • You and squeeze you and say, hey, keep going.
  • 00:18:12.911 --> 00:18:14.980
  • God loves you and you don't give up.
  • 00:18:14.980 --> 00:18:17.483
  • And you may not have a biological uncle, but you can have a spiritual uncle.
  • 00:18:17.483 --> 00:18:21.653
  • You may not have a biological father, but you can have
  • 00:18:22.754 --> 00:18:24.556
  • A spiritual father when you tune in and you allow me to talk to you.
  • 00:18:24.556 --> 00:18:27.960
  • And this is our our time together every week.
  • 00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:30.729
  • You may not have a spiritual grandmother, but when sandra anderson
  • 00:18:30.729 --> 00:18:35.634
  • Comes alongside of you and gives you a hug and says, hey, don't give up.
  • 00:18:35.634 --> 00:18:39.938
  • I see you, gen z, and the tears come down.
  • 00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:42.808
  • You, your grandmother in the natural might be toxic, but the lord's giving you
  • 00:18:42.808 --> 00:18:46.311
  • Grandmothers when you come and you join that flight crew.
  • 00:18:46.311 --> 00:18:49.548
  • This isn't a church program.
  • 00:18:50.149 --> 00:18:51.383
  • This is heaven's plan for you to heal.
  • 00:18:51.383 --> 00:18:54.386
  • And this is how he's always done it.
  • 00:18:54.386 --> 00:18:56.455
  • For 2000 years.
  • 00:18:56.455 --> 00:19:00.392
  • So we're going to do something.
  • 00:19:01.026 --> 00:19:04.363
  • I want to talk to two groups of people as i close.
  • 00:19:05.397 --> 00:19:08.400
  • First, the ones who are thinking, this is exactly what i've lived,
  • 00:19:09.735 --> 00:19:12.304
  • But i've never had words for it until this sermon.
  • 00:19:13.305 --> 00:19:15.574
  • You feel like this sermon has given language to your story.
  • 00:19:16.775 --> 00:19:19.077
  • It's like fresh, fresh oxygen that you've been breathing.
  • 00:19:19.077 --> 00:19:22.381
  • You feel relief. i'm not crazy.
  • 00:19:22.381 --> 00:19:24.683
  • I'm not selfish.
  • 00:19:24.683 --> 00:19:25.951
  • And i'm not a bad christian for being tired.
  • 00:19:25.951 --> 00:19:29.354
  • If that's you, man, the anointing is so strong right now.
  • 00:19:30.556 --> 00:19:34.259
  • He's showing you that
  • 00:19:34.760 --> 00:19:36.028
  • Wisdom is not rebellion against your family,
  • 00:19:36.028 --> 00:19:39.131
  • That boundaries are not betrayal against your family.
  • 00:19:40.199 --> 00:19:42.568
  • But then there's there's second, a second group.
  • 00:19:43.535 --> 00:19:45.871
  • And i know this in brooklyn, in the different campuses right now,
  • 00:19:45.871 --> 00:19:49.641
  • And watching at home online, you feel terrified by this sermon.
  • 00:19:50.842 --> 00:19:53.946
  • Because if this is true, it means that you gotta stop pretending now.
  • 00:19:53.946 --> 00:19:58.150
  • You can't unsee what you've
  • 00:19:58.750 --> 00:20:00.485
  • Seen now through the scriptures, and you know something has to change.
  • 00:20:00.485 --> 00:20:04.289
  • You know you have to have the conversation.
  • 00:20:04.289 --> 00:20:06.391
  • You have to place the boundary.
  • 00:20:06.391 --> 00:20:08.060
  • You have to separate, maybe bringing something into the light.
  • 00:20:08.060 --> 00:20:11.763
  • Now that that's been in the dark for years.
  • 00:20:12.631 --> 00:20:14.199
  • But i want to say that god sees how complicated this is.
  • 00:20:14.199 --> 00:20:17.336
  • He knows that that there's this loyalty that wants to pull you back.
  • 00:20:18.704 --> 00:20:21.440
  • He he knows that you're worrying right now.
  • 00:20:22.307 --> 00:20:23.408
  • What is my family gonna think?
  • 00:20:23.408 --> 00:20:25.043
  • What are they going to say about me?
  • 00:20:25.043 --> 00:20:27.212
  • What if i'm even wrong about this diagnosis?
  • 00:20:27.212 --> 00:20:29.748
  • But he's not shaming you.
  • 00:20:29.748 --> 00:20:32.517
  • He's gently calling you to freedom.
  • 00:20:32.517 --> 00:20:35.187
  • So here's what we're going to do.
  • 00:20:35.187 --> 00:20:37.222
  • Some of you have been trying to be the savior of your family.
  • 00:20:37.222 --> 00:20:40.525
  • That job is taken.
  • 00:20:40.959 --> 00:20:42.894
  • Hey, join me for the trip of
  • 00:20:43.495 --> 00:20:45.464
  • A lifetime as we travel, retracing the apostle paul's steps.
  • 00:20:45.464 --> 00:20:50.102
  • Yes, right there where scripture was first written.
  • 00:20:50.102 --> 00:20:53.805
  • Right there where the early church was born.
  • 00:20:54.706 --> 00:20:56.375
  • We're going to go from site to site. i'm going to be teaching.
  • 00:20:56.375 --> 00:20:59.211
  • We're going to get to meet.
  • 00:20:59.211 --> 00:21:00.679
  • We're going to share some incredible meals together.
  • 00:21:00.679 --> 00:21:03.048
  • You're going to get to meet other people from around the world.
  • 00:21:03.048 --> 00:21:05.784
  • And this is an exclusive trip, okay.
  • 00:21:05.784 --> 00:21:08.253
  • Which means you've got to act now while there are still seats available.
  • 00:21:08.253 --> 00:21:12.491
  • So scan the qr code, tap the link, and get your seat.
  • 00:21:13.525 --> 00:21:16.862
  • Now. you are not going to regret it.
  • 00:21:17.629 --> 00:21:18.597
  • I can't wait to see you on this.
  • 00:21:18.597 --> 00:21:20.532
  • Retracing the apostle paul greece tour.
  • 00:21:20.532 --> 00:21:23.402
  • Come on land and sea.
  • 00:21:23.402 --> 00:21:25.203
  • It doesn't get any better than that. i'll see you there.
  • 00:21:25.203 --> 00:21:28.106
  • Your first step might not be a boundary with them.
  • 00:21:29.141 --> 00:21:31.977
  • It might be surrender to him.
  • 00:21:31.977 --> 00:21:34.880
  • If that's you, i'm going to lead
  • 00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:36.682
  • You in a simple prayer.
  • 00:21:36.682 --> 00:21:40.252
  • Would you all close your eyes?
  • 00:21:40.886 --> 00:21:43.822
  • This is the first prayer that we're going to pray.
  • 00:21:43.822 --> 00:21:47.192
  • If you've never surrendered completely to jesus
  • 00:21:48.193 --> 00:21:50.529
  • And you're thinking about this family situation
  • 00:21:51.530 --> 00:21:53.065
  • And you just been going to church,
  • 00:21:53.065 --> 00:21:54.866
  • Maybe you're watching online right now, and you saw me on television
  • 00:21:54.866 --> 00:21:58.403
  • And you're like, i want to check this dude out.
  • 00:21:59.338 --> 00:22:00.572
  • I want to see what his church is about.
  • 00:22:00.572 --> 00:22:02.074
  • But you've never accepted jesus and fully surrendered.
  • 00:22:02.074 --> 00:22:05.043
  • You just kind of been going through the motions.
  • 00:22:05.043 --> 00:22:07.479
  • Maybe you're here in one of our auditoriums around the country
  • 00:22:07.479 --> 00:22:10.882
  • And you're like, man, i need to surrender to him before i talk to them.
  • 00:22:12.284 --> 00:22:15.354
  • Would you just lift up your hand and say, that's me, mike, that's me.
  • 00:22:16.722 --> 00:22:18.390
  • Just lift up your hand. come on.
  • 00:22:18.390 --> 00:22:19.958
  • I see your hands here in the auditorium online right now.
  • 00:22:19.958 --> 00:22:22.894
  • Just put a hand emoji or just say, that's me in the chat.
  • 00:22:22.894 --> 00:22:26.431
  • I want us to pray this together.
  • 00:22:27.065 --> 00:22:28.400
  • Pray this with me.
  • 00:22:28.400 --> 00:22:29.368
  • Even if you have to whisper it.
  • 00:22:29.368 --> 00:22:30.736
  • Jesus, i surrender my family to you.
  • 00:22:30.736 --> 00:22:34.005
  • I'm not their savior.
  • 00:22:34.506 --> 00:22:36.842
  • I'm not responsible for their choices.
  • 00:22:36.842 --> 00:22:40.112
  • Show me what is mine to carry
  • 00:22:40.746 --> 00:22:43.749
  • And what i need to pull back on.
  • 00:22:44.383 --> 00:22:46.785
  • Give me wisdom.
  • 00:22:47.152 --> 00:22:48.587
  • Give me courage.
  • 00:22:48.587 --> 00:22:50.422
  • Give me peace.
  • 00:22:50.422 --> 00:22:52.224
  • I give you my whole life right now.
  • 00:22:52.224 --> 00:22:54.960
  • In jesus name, amen.
  • 00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:58.230
  • Now, there's a lot of hands just in this auditorium for decisions for jesus.
  • 00:22:59.731 --> 00:23:02.834
  • But if you sense that god's asking you to take another step right now
  • 00:23:04.202 --> 00:23:07.005
  • And to have a hard conversation, to set a boundary, to ask for help,
  • 00:23:08.373 --> 00:23:10.842
  • To go get into a small group, to go to a pastor, a christian counselor,
  • 00:23:12.210 --> 00:23:15.247
  • To talk to a family member, to set a boundary.
  • 00:23:16.214 --> 00:23:18.483
  • I'm going to ask that you respond across all vh1 church campuses
  • 00:23:19.818 --> 00:23:22.554
  • And everybody online,
  • 00:23:22.554 --> 00:23:24.322
  • And even if you're in your living room, i want you to do this.
  • 00:23:24.322 --> 00:23:26.591
  • I want you to just physically stand up right now if you're like,
  • 00:23:26.591 --> 00:23:29.528
  • I need to, i there's some things i need to deal with this this year.
  • 00:23:29.528 --> 00:23:32.497
  • I want you to go ahead and take a stand.
  • 00:23:32.497 --> 00:23:34.032
  • Just stand up right where you're at right now. if that's you.
  • 00:23:34.032 --> 00:23:37.436
  • And i'm gonna give you a moment to be bold,
  • 00:23:38.336 --> 00:23:41.606
  • You're just simply saying, lord, i'm going to move with wisdom
  • 00:23:42.808 --> 00:23:44.843
  • That you've given me today.
  • 00:23:45.444 --> 00:23:45.977
  • Come on.
  • 00:23:45.977 --> 00:23:47.412
  • There's many people just taking a stand right now.
  • 00:23:47.412 --> 00:23:49.147
  • Even here on long island in new york.
  • 00:23:49.147 --> 00:23:53.885
  • Wow. in every family,
  • 00:23:54.386 --> 00:23:56.988
  • There has to be somebody who says.
  • 00:23:56.988 --> 00:24:00.358
  • I wish that my dad would have taken this stand.
  • 00:24:01.326 --> 00:24:03.261
  • I wish that my mom, my grandma, my grandpa.
  • 00:24:03.261 --> 00:24:05.530
  • I wish somebody in my bloodline would have done this
  • 00:24:05.530 --> 00:24:08.200
  • Because maybe i would have had a healthier family.
  • 00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:10.469
  • But the truth is, we inherit a lot of toxicity
  • 00:24:10.469 --> 00:24:14.239
  • And somebody has got to stand up and say, lord,
  • 00:24:14.239 --> 00:24:17.576
  • It's going to be hard, but it's going to end with me.
  • 00:24:18.643 --> 00:24:20.745
  • If you are still seated right now, can you and you're close to
  • 00:24:20.745 --> 00:24:23.915
  • Somebody who's took a stand, can you just lay your hand on them?
  • 00:24:23.915 --> 00:24:27.085
  • Maybe they're back on their arm.
  • 00:24:27.085 --> 00:24:29.321
  • It just as a way of telling them, i'm here for you.
  • 00:24:29.321 --> 00:24:37.696
  • So they know they're not alone.
  • 00:24:38.330 --> 00:24:42.200
  • God sees your fear.
  • 00:24:42.667 --> 00:24:44.903
  • God sees your loyalty.
  • 00:24:44.903 --> 00:24:47.205
  • God sees how deeply you love your family.
  • 00:24:47.205 --> 00:24:50.442
  • He's not condemning you.
  • 00:24:50.942 --> 00:24:53.512
  • He's equipping you.
  • 00:24:53.979 --> 00:24:55.747
  • Come on.
  • 00:24:55.747 --> 00:24:56.715
  • We're about to pray right now.
  • 00:24:56.715 --> 00:24:59.417
  • Heavenly father, i pray for each and every one of them
  • 00:25:00.519 --> 00:25:02.621
  • That you would give them the power of the holy spirit to set boundaries
  • 00:25:02.621 --> 00:25:06.958
  • That you would give them a humility
  • 00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:09.528
  • To admit maybe where they've been foolish, where they need to grow.
  • 00:25:09.528 --> 00:25:12.898
  • Lord, that you would protect them from anyone that's acting evil,
  • 00:25:14.199 --> 00:25:16.968
  • That has the intent to destroy them, because we know that no weapon
  • 00:25:18.336 --> 00:25:20.939
  • Formed against them will prosper, and every tongue that rises against them
  • 00:25:20.939 --> 00:25:24.943
  • You will silence it.
  • 00:25:24.943 --> 00:25:26.645
  • And, father, i thank you that today is a boundary line and a marker,
  • 00:25:26.645 --> 00:25:31.049
  • And that their home is going to reflect the wisdom of proverbs,
  • 00:25:32.250 --> 00:25:35.787
  • The courage of jesus and the peace of the holy spirit.
  • 00:25:36.855 --> 00:25:40.225
  • In jesus mighty name.
  • 00:25:40.725 --> 00:25:42.494
  • All around the world we say it together.
  • 00:25:42.494 --> 00:25:44.963
  • Amen. amen.
  • 00:25:44.963 --> 00:25:46.498
  • Now, as a church, let's all stand with with them right now.
  • 00:25:46.498 --> 00:25:51.202
  • And i want us to sing this out before the lord.
  • 00:25:52.137 --> 00:25:54.039
  • And i want us to sing in advance saying, god, i know that what you started.
  • 00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:58.543
  • He who began a good work in me will see it through until completion.
  • 00:25:59.911 --> 00:26:03.615
  • Everybody watching online.
  • 00:26:04.182 --> 00:26:06.017
  • I want you to share this sermon with as many family members as possible.
  • 00:26:06.017 --> 00:26:10.522
  • Everybody in the auditorium.
  • 00:26:11.122 --> 00:26:12.657
  • Everybody watching all around the world right now.
  • 00:26:12.657 --> 00:26:15.060
  • I want us to lift up this song in triumph.
  • 00:26:15.060 --> 00:26:17.596
  • Speak up.
  • 00:26:17.596 --> 00:26:18.530
  • Because before the end of 2025.
  • 00:26:18.530 --> 00:26:22.167
  • Mark my word.
  • 00:26:22.534 --> 00:26:23.368
  • How we end this year.
  • 00:26:23.368 --> 00:26:24.936
  • It's how we begin the next.
  • 00:26:24.936 --> 00:26:26.938
  • And god is going to wrap some things up that he's taught in our family.
  • 00:26:26.938 --> 00:26:31.376
  • And many will be safe.
  • 00:26:31.876 --> 00:26:32.944
  • Come on.
  • 00:26:32.944 --> 00:26:34.946
  • Lift your hands towards heaven with me and let's worship the king one more time.
  • 00:26:34.946 --> 00:26:37.682
  • Come on.
  • 00:26:37.949 --> 00:26:39.484
  • I really want to thank you for supporting this ministry.
  • 00:26:39.484 --> 00:26:42.187
  • Pray about what god would have you do.
  • 00:26:43.021 --> 00:26:44.656
  • We don't tell people what to give.
  • 00:26:44.656 --> 00:26:46.524
  • What we do love to talk about is the amazing, life saving projects
  • 00:26:46.524 --> 00:26:50.996
  • That we do around the united states and around the world.
  • 00:26:50.996 --> 00:26:54.265
  • Whether it's distributing the gospel
  • 00:26:55.033 --> 00:26:56.601
  • In non-christian nations, even underground church networks,
  • 00:26:56.601 --> 00:27:00.639
  • Or providing disaster relief to areas most affected around the united states.
  • 00:27:02.140 --> 00:27:05.477
  • Many lives are being changed because of your generosity.
  • 00:27:06.611 --> 00:27:12.751
  • Your.
  • 00:27:12.984 --> 00:27:12.984
