- 00:09:39.996 --> 00:09:41.731
- US TO BE.
- 00:09:41.731 --> 00:09:43.666
- - OH, DEFINITELY WOMEN EMPOWERMENT, THAT WE ALL
- 00:09:43.666 --> 00:09:45.468
- INDEED ARE ON THE SAME TEAM, SO LOOKING AROUND
- 00:09:45.468 --> 00:09:47.970
- AND JUST REALIZING THAT WE'RE ALL EACH OTHER'S
- 00:09:47.970 --> 00:09:50.306
- CHEER LEADERS SO IT'S BEEN SUPER AWESOME TO
- 00:09:50.306 --> 00:09:52.174
- JUST BE ALL TOGETHER AS WOMEN.
- 00:09:52.174 --> 00:09:53.743
- [MUSIC]
- 00:09:53.743 --> 00:09:57.847
- - I AM EXCITED TO HEAR LISA HARPER PREACH TODAY.
- 00:09:57.847 --> 00:09:59.582
- I HAVE NEVER HEARD HER PREACH BEFORE.
- 00:09:59.582 --> 00:10:01.183
- I'VE ONLY BEEN LIKE IN BACK ROOMS WITH HER OR
- 00:10:01.183 --> 00:10:03.586
- WE'VE SHARED A CAR OR WE'VE BEEN OUT TO DINNER
- 00:10:03.586 --> 00:10:05.621
- BUT I'VE NEVER HEARD HER PREACH IN-PERSON, SO I
- 00:10:05.621 --> 00:10:07.857
- CANNOT WAIT TO HEAR JUST THE UNIQUE GRACE AND
- 00:10:07.857 --> 00:10:10.993
- ANOINTING THAT IS ON HER LIFE.
- 00:10:10.993 --> 00:10:12.528
- I KNOW IT'S GONNA BE HILARIOUS BUT I ALSO KNOW
- 00:10:12.528 --> 00:10:14.263
- SHE IS SO SMART, SO INTELLIGENT SO I CAN'T
- 00:10:14.263 --> 00:10:15.965
- WAIT TO HEAR HER.
- 00:10:15.965 --> 00:10:17.500
- - I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS MESSAGE BECAUSE I'M
- 00:10:17.500 --> 00:10:18.868
- TALKING ABOUT THE REDEMPTIVE NATURE OF GOD
- 00:10:18.868 --> 00:10:22.705
- FROM BEGINNING TO THE END OF SCRIPTURE.
- 00:10:22.705 --> 00:10:25.174
- AND I FEEL LIKE WE'VE GOT SO MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE
- 00:10:25.174 --> 00:10:26.809
- THROWING THE BIBLE UNDER THE BUS BECAUSE THEY ONLY
- 00:10:26.809 --> 00:10:29.378
- KNOW THE BIBLE IN PART.
- 00:10:29.378 --> 00:10:30.946
- THEY MIGHT KNOW PROBLEMATIC PASSAGE AND
- 00:10:30.946 --> 00:10:33.315
- THINK GOODNESS GRACIOUS, IF THAT'S WHO GOD IS, HE
- 00:10:33.315 --> 00:10:36.018
- MUST BE SOME UNIBROWED LIBRARIAN WHO WANTS TO
- 00:10:36.018 --> 00:10:38.487
- SMACK US OVER THE HEAD WITH THE BIBLE.
- 00:10:38.487 --> 00:10:40.089
- OR THEN THEY SEE ANOTHER PASSAGE WHERE GOD SEEMS
- 00:10:40.089 --> 00:10:43.259
- TO JUST YOU TAKE THAT PASSAGE OUT OF CONTEXT,
- 00:10:43.259 --> 00:10:45.494
- PRESENT GOD OR JESUS AS KIND OF A SANTA FIGURE
- 00:10:45.494 --> 00:10:49.665
- WHO IS JUST THIS WARM FUZZY ALMOST SOMEBODY
- 00:10:49.665 --> 00:10:53.636
- THAT DOESN'T HAVE ANY AUTHORITY.
- 00:10:53.636 --> 00:10:55.671
- BUT IF YOU ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE BIBLE FROM
- 00:10:55.671 --> 00:10:59.141
- BEGINNING TO END, YOU SEE GOD AS THIS PERFECTLY
- 00:10:59.141 --> 00:11:00.910
- HOLY, MIRACULOUSLY GRACIOUS REDEEMER.
- 00:11:00.910 --> 00:11:04.880
- AND IF WE COULD GET THAT GOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN
- 00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:08.451
- THE BUSINESS OF REDEEMING, GOD HAS ALWAYS
- 00:11:08.451 --> 00:11:11.654
- BEEN THIS PERFECTLY HOLY, WILDLY, RADICALLY
- 00:11:11.654 --> 00:11:14.724
- REDEMPTIVE KING WHO LOVES US, WE MATTER TO HIM, HE
- 00:11:14.724 --> 00:11:18.294
- SEES US, THEN I THINK WE'D HAVE A LOT LESS
- 00:11:18.294 --> 00:11:20.529
- PEOPLE THROWING THE CHURCH UNDER THE BUS AND
- 00:11:20.529 --> 00:11:22.698
- BIBLICAL ORTHODOXY UNDER THE BUS AND A LOT MORE
- 00:11:22.698 --> 00:11:25.101
- PEOPLE GOING GOODNESS GRACIOUS, I DIDN'T KNOW
- 00:11:25.101 --> 00:11:28.170
- HE WAS REALLY THAT KIND.
- 00:11:28.170 --> 00:11:31.540
- SO I THINK SOMETIMES OUR FINITUDE, THE FACT THAT
- 00:11:31.540 --> 00:11:34.844
- OUR MINDS CAN'T FULLY COMPREHEND HOW GOOD AND
- 00:11:34.844 --> 00:11:37.446
- HOW KIND GOD IS MAKES US DOUBT HIS FAITHFULNESS.
- 00:11:37.446 --> 00:11:41.217
- SO THIS MESSAGE IS ALL ABOUT HOW KIND GOD IS AND
- 00:11:41.217 --> 00:11:46.088
- HOW SCRIPTURE, IT'S NOT A RULE BOOK.
- 00:11:46.088 --> 00:11:48.424
- IT'S A LOVE STORY.
- 00:11:48.424 --> 00:11:52.161
- - I NEED TO MAKE A CONFESSION BEFORE WE DIVE
- 00:11:53.195 --> 00:11:55.231
- INTO THE TEXT AND THAT IS THAT I MOONED MY NEIGHBOR
- 00:11:55.231 --> 00:11:59.502
- LAST WEEK, AND IT WAS AN ACCIDENTAL ECLIPSE.
- 00:11:59.502 --> 00:12:03.272
- I DIDN'T REALLY MEAN TO MOON MY NEIGHBOR.
- 00:12:03.272 --> 00:12:06.041
- BUT WE LIVE OUT IN THE BOONIES AND SO HIS SON
- 00:12:06.041 --> 00:12:11.080
- LUCA WHO IS A LITTLE BOY COMES OVER WHEN WE'RE ON
- 00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:13.115
- THE ROAD AT PROPEL AND OTHER EVENTS, HE COMES
- 00:12:13.115 --> 00:12:16.118
- OVER TO LET MY DOG OUT AND MAKE SURE EVERYTHING
- 00:12:16.118 --> 00:12:19.021
- IS COPASETIC.
- 00:12:19.021 --> 00:12:20.322
- WE LIVE IN A LITTLE FARMETTE ABOUT 30 MILES
- 00:12:20.322 --> 00:12:22.258
- SOUTH OF NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.
- 00:12:22.258 --> 00:12:24.126
- WELL, LAST WEEK I FORGOT TO TELL LUCA THAT WE
- 00:12:24.126 --> 00:12:27.563
- ACTUALLY GOT ON A LATE FLIGHT, AND SO WE WERE
- 00:12:27.563 --> 00:12:31.200
- GONNA BE HOME ON SATURDAY NIGHT INSTEAD OF
- 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:33.803
- SUNDAY MORNING.
- 00:12:33.803 --> 00:12:35.404
- AND I REALIZED MY ERROR AND MISCOMMUNICATION THE
- 00:12:35.404 --> 00:12:39.175
- FOLLOWING MORNING--
- 00:12:39.175 --> 00:12:40.442
- I MEAN, THAT EVENING BECAUSE WHEN I GOT HOME,
- 00:12:40.442 --> 00:12:43.712
- I WANTED PAJAMAS, AND MY PAJAMAS IN MY SUITCASE
- 00:12:43.712 --> 00:12:46.549
- WERE DIRTY AND I THOUGHT, I THINK THERE'S SOME
- 00:12:46.549 --> 00:12:49.151
- PAJAMAS IN THE DRYER.
- 00:12:49.151 --> 00:12:50.486
- AFTER 50 YOUR MEMORY GETS KIND OF LIKE YOUR THINGS
- 00:12:50.486 --> 00:12:53.889
- THAT SPANX HOLD IN, JUST A LITTLE JIGGLY.
- 00:12:53.889 --> 00:12:57.326
- AND I THOUGHT I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S SOME PAJAMAS
- 00:12:57.326 --> 00:13:00.062
- IN THE DRYER.
- 00:13:00.062 --> 00:13:01.230
- WELL, WE LIVE OUT IN THE BOONIES.
- 00:13:01.230 --> 00:13:02.498
- I'M ON FIVE ACRES, UNLESS YOU FLY A DRONE OVER OUR
- 00:13:02.498 --> 00:13:05.034
- HOME, YOU CAN'T SEE US.
- 00:13:05.034 --> 00:13:06.468
- SO I'M IN THE HABIT OF OCCASIONAL NUDITY.
- 00:13:06.468 --> 00:13:09.605
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:13:09.605 --> 00:13:11.640
- SO I THOUGHT I'LL JUST WALK RIGHT THROUGH
- 00:13:11.640 --> 00:13:13.843
- THE KITCHEN.
- 00:13:13.843 --> 00:13:15.010
- IT'S TEN O'CLOCK AT NIGHT, AND I'LL GO TO THE
- 00:13:15.010 --> 00:13:17.446
- DRYER AND SEE IF THERE'S SOME PAJAMAS, IN
- 00:13:17.446 --> 00:13:19.215
- THE DRYER.
- 00:13:19.215 --> 00:13:20.382
- SO RIGHT ABOUT THE TIME I'M WALTZING THROUGH THE
- 00:13:20.382 --> 00:13:22.785
- KITCHEN, AND MY KITCHEN BUTTS UP AGAINST MY FRONT
- 00:13:22.785 --> 00:13:25.054
- PORCH, AND THERE'S HUGE WINDOWS FROM THE KITCHEN
- 00:13:25.054 --> 00:13:27.656
- OVERLOOKING THE FRONT PORCH.
- 00:13:27.656 --> 00:13:28.991
- RIGHT ABOUT THE TIME I'M CRUISING TO THE DRYER, I
- 00:13:28.991 --> 00:13:31.493
- HEAR LUCA AND NOT JUST LUCA'S FOOTSTEPS BUT HIS
- 00:13:31.493 --> 00:13:34.463
- DADDY JEFF [LAUGHTER] BECAUSE IT'S LATE AT
- 00:13:34.463 --> 00:13:37.833
- NIGHT AND THEY'RE COMING TO MAKE SURE MY DOG GETS
- 00:13:37.833 --> 00:13:41.036
- OUT ONE LAST TIME BECAUSE I FORGOT TO TELL HIM WE
- 00:13:41.036 --> 00:13:43.138
- WERE ACTUALLY GONNA BE HOME AND LUCA HAS HIS
- 00:13:43.138 --> 00:13:44.607
- OWN KEY, AND I REALIZED IN THAT MOMENT I CAN'T
- 00:13:44.607 --> 00:13:48.310
- TELL THEM NOT TO COME IN BECAUSE IF I YELL THEY'RE
- 00:13:48.310 --> 00:13:50.679
- GONNA SEE ME IN ALL OF MY GLORY AND LUCA IS GONNA
- 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.083
- BE PERMANENTLY SCARRED AND JEFF IS GONNA HAVE A
- 00:13:54.083 --> 00:13:56.051
- HEART ATTACK ON MY FRONT PORCH.
- 00:13:56.051 --> 00:13:58.354
- AND THEN THERE'S HUGE GLASS PANELS ON EITHER
- 00:13:58.354 --> 00:14:00.456
- SIDE OF OUR FRONT DOOR, SO I HAD JUST A MOMENT TO
- 00:14:00.456 --> 00:14:02.358
- MAKE A DECISION, AND I THOUGHT REALLY MY ONLY
- 00:14:02.358 --> 00:14:05.194
- CHOICE IS TO DIVE BEHIND THE KITCHEN ISLAND AND
- 00:14:05.194 --> 00:14:09.064
- CRAB CRAWL AS FAST AS I CAN TO THE DRYER AND PRAY
- 00:14:09.064 --> 00:14:14.303
- THAT THERE'S SOMETHING BESIDES HAND TOWELS IN
- 00:14:14.303 --> 00:14:17.006
- THE DRYER [LAUGHTER]
- 00:14:17.006 --> 00:14:18.574
- AND SO THAT'S WHAT I DID.
- 00:14:18.574 --> 00:14:19.942
- I LITERALLY DOVE TO THE FLOOR AND NAKED CRAB
- 00:14:19.942 --> 00:14:22.678
- CRAWLED AS FAST AS I COULD IN TO WHERE THE
- 00:14:22.678 --> 00:14:27.917
- DRYER IS, AND I OPENED UP THE DRYER DOOR AT THE
- 00:14:27.917 --> 00:14:30.286
- EXACT MOMENT THAT LUCA WAS OPENING MY FRONT
- 00:14:30.286 --> 00:14:34.556
- DOOR, AND YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN SOMEBODY SHIMMY INTO
- 00:14:34.556 --> 00:14:36.959
- YOGA PANTS AND A RATTY SHIRT FASTER THAN I DID,
- 00:14:36.959 --> 00:14:41.030
- AND I CAME OUT RIGHT AS THEY WERE COMING IN, AND
- 00:14:41.030 --> 00:14:44.633
- HE SAW JUST A LITTLE BIT OF MOON.
- 00:14:44.633 --> 00:14:46.468
- IT WAS LIKE A QUARTER MOON.
- 00:14:46.468 --> 00:14:48.103
- [LAUGHTER] IT WAS CLOSE BECAUSE THEY WERE A
- 00:14:48.103 --> 00:14:50.806
- LITTLE TIGHT FROM THE DRYER [LAUGHTER] BUT I
- 00:14:50.806 --> 00:14:54.677
- THOUGHT AFTER THEY LEFT THAT NIGHT A LITTLE SHELL
- 00:14:54.677 --> 00:14:57.479
- SHOCKED, I THOUGHT OH HONEY, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
- 00:14:57.479 --> 00:14:59.381
- IT COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE THAN JUST A
- 00:14:59.381 --> 00:15:00.916
- QUARTER MOON.
- 00:15:00.916 --> 00:15:01.984
- I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW WHAT?
- 00:15:01.984 --> 00:15:03.419
- THAT IS THE MOST JARRING KIND OF WAKE-UP CALL
- 00:15:03.419 --> 00:15:06.188
- BECAUSE I HAVE ALMOST IN THAT SLEEPWALKING
- 00:15:06.188 --> 00:15:08.057
- OBLIVION BEFORE I SAW THEM ON MY FRONT PORCH.
- 00:15:08.057 --> 00:15:11.293
- I THOUGHT THAT'S THE MOST JARRING WAKE-UP CALL I'VE
- 00:15:11.293 --> 00:15:13.195
- HAD IN A LONG TIME.
- 00:15:13.195 --> 00:15:14.496
- AND I KEPT THINKING ABOUT IT.
- 00:15:14.496 --> 00:15:17.333
- AND I FOUND MYSELF BY THE NEXT DAY THINKING THAT'S
- 00:15:17.333 --> 00:15:20.636
- EXACTLY WHAT THE CHURCH NEEDS.
- 00:15:20.636 --> 00:15:22.638
- THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THE CHURCH IN POST
- 00:15:22.638 --> 00:15:25.607
- MODERNITY NEEDS.
- 00:15:25.607 --> 00:15:27.409
- WE NEED A JARRING WAKE UP CALL BECAUSE IF WE'D
- 00:15:27.409 --> 00:15:31.046
- ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION, THERE ARE SO MANY
- 00:15:31.046 --> 00:15:34.583
- PRECIOUS SAINTS WHO WERE JETTISONING ORTHODOXY,
- 00:15:34.583 --> 00:15:38.787
- JETTISONING BIBLICAL FIDELITY BECAUSE WE HAVE
- 00:15:38.787 --> 00:15:42.658
- FALLEN ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL.
- 00:15:42.658 --> 00:15:44.426
- IF YOU BROUGHT YOUR BIBLES, WOULD YOU TURN
- 00:15:44.426 --> 00:15:46.128
- TO GENESIS, GENESIS CHAPTER 1.
- 00:15:46.128 --> 00:15:48.163
- GENESIS CHAPTER 1.
- 00:15:48.163 --> 00:15:50.766
- ACTUALLY I TOLD YOU A TALE.
- 00:15:50.766 --> 00:15:52.167
- GENESIS CHAPTER 3.
- 00:15:52.167 --> 00:15:53.502
- GENESIS CHAPTER 3 VERSE 21.
- 00:15:53.502 --> 00:15:57.139
- ACTUALLY BACK UP.
- 00:15:57.139 --> 00:15:59.875
- WE'LL START AT VERSE 1. I WANT TO GIVE YOU THE FULL
- 00:15:59.875 --> 00:16:04.546
- MONTY BIBLICALLY SPEAKING. [LAUGHTER]
- 00:16:04.546 --> 00:16:42.651
- - I FEEL LIKE I HEAR THE SAME THEME ON TWITTER
- 00:16:43.719 --> 00:16:45.287
- EVERY SINGLE DAY.
- 00:16:45.287 --> 00:17:19.521
- - INTERESTING THAT GOD IS COMPLETELY OMNISCIENT.
- 00:17:20.556 --> 00:17:23.325
- HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE.
- 00:17:23.325 --> 00:17:25.494
- BUT PART OF HIS MERCY IS HELPING US TO BE
- 00:17:25.494 --> 00:17:28.730
- COGNIZANT OF HOW WE DRIFTED, SO THIS IS A
- 00:17:28.730 --> 00:17:31.900
- MERCIFUL QUESTION.
- 00:17:31.900 --> 00:17:33.602
- IT'S NOT A DIAGNOSTIC QUESTION.
- 00:17:33.602 --> 00:17:35.771
- WHERE ARE YOU?
- 00:17:35.771 --> 00:17:37.573
- IN OTHER WORDS, WHERE HAVE YOU DRIFTED?
- 00:17:37.573 --> 00:17:49.485
- - CHRIS OFTEN PREACHES SINCE WHEN DID SOMEBODY
- 00:17:50.519 --> 00:17:52.588
- ELSE'S VOICE ELEVATE ABOVE GOD'S AND OURS OR
- 00:17:52.588 --> 00:17:55.491
- OUR CULTURES AS BEING ABSOLUTELY AUTHORITATIVE.
- 00:17:55.491 --> 00:18:06.101
- THE MAN SAID THE WOMAN WHOM YOU GAVE TO BE WITH
- 00:18:07.102 --> 00:18:09.037
- ME, SHE GAVE ME THE FRUIT OF THE TREE AND I ATE.
- 00:18:09.037 --> 00:18:11.306
- I WANTED TO BE TO CHIPOTLE, BUT SHE JUST TOLD
- 00:18:11.306 --> 00:18:13.108
- ME TO EAT HERE.
- 00:18:13.108 --> 00:18:14.576
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:18:14.576 --> 00:18:17.079
- THAT'S A TINY BIT OF LIBERTY WITH THE TEXT
- 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:18.947
- RIGHT THERE.
- 00:18:18.947 --> 00:18:19.948
- JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT CLEAR. [LAUGHTER]
- 00:18:19.948 --> 00:19:02.057
- THIS HAS BEEN READ OVER AND OVER
- 00:19:02.858 --> 00:19:04.560
- AGAIN IN BOTH EVANGELICAL CULTURE AND SECULAR
- 00:19:04.560 --> 00:19:06.962
- CULTURE AS A PUNITIVE PASSAGE.
- 00:19:06.962 --> 00:19:10.699
- IT'S DEPICTED GOD AS KIND OF THIS UNIBROWED
- 00:19:10.699 --> 00:19:13.035
- LIBRARIAN WHO BOOTS US OUT OF HIS PRESENCE
- 00:19:13.035 --> 00:19:15.337
- WHENEVER WE MAKE A MISSTEP.
- 00:19:15.337 --> 00:19:17.673
- Y'ALL, WE'VE BEEN READING IT WRONG.
- 00:19:17.673 --> 00:19:19.875
- IF YOU READ THIS PASSAGE IN THE CONTEXT IT WAS
- 00:19:19.875 --> 00:19:22.844
- WRITTEN, IN THE CONTEXT IT WAS GIVEN, YOU'LL
- 00:19:22.844 --> 00:19:25.747
- RECOGNIZE THAT THE WORD RIGHT THERE DROVE OUT THE
- 00:19:25.747 --> 00:19:28.750
- MAN IN VERSE 24 COMES FROM THE HEBREW WORD
- 00:19:28.750 --> 00:19:32.621
- GOLROSH WHICH IS ALSO USED IN A REDEMPTIVE CONTEXT,
- 00:19:32.621 --> 00:19:36.592
- IN EXODUS WHEN IT SAYS GOD REALIZED HIS PEOPLE,
- 00:19:36.592 --> 00:19:39.728
- AND I'M PARAPHRASING HERE, WERE IDIOTS AND SO
- 00:19:39.728 --> 00:19:43.398
- HE HERDED THEM OUT OF SLAVERY INTO FREEDOM.
- 00:19:43.398 --> 00:19:49.538
- HE HERDED THEM LIKE A GOOD SHEPHERD AWAY FROM
- 00:19:49.538 --> 00:19:53.609
- WHAT WOULD KILL THEM INTO GREENER PASTURES FOR
- 00:19:53.609 --> 00:19:57.079
- THEIR OWN GOOD BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HOW
- 00:19:57.079 --> 00:19:59.781
- TO LEAVE SLAVERY.
- 00:19:59.781 --> 00:20:01.450
- WHEN YOU STOP AND THINK OF THE CONTEXT OF THE
- 00:20:01.450 --> 00:20:04.653
- GARDEN OF EDEN, WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD
- 00:20:04.653 --> 00:20:07.522
- THEY EATEN FROM THE TREE OF LIFE?
- 00:20:07.522 --> 00:20:09.258
- WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED?
- 00:20:09.258 --> 00:20:11.293
- Y'ALL CAN TALK ABOUT.
- 00:20:11.293 --> 00:20:12.227
- IT'S NOT SUNDAY MORNING.
- 00:20:12.227 --> 00:20:13.629
- I'M NOT A PASTOR.
- 00:20:13.629 --> 00:20:14.796
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:20:14.796 --> 00:20:15.797
- WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED?
- 00:20:15.797 --> 00:20:16.932
- THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN FOREVER FROZEN IN THE
- 00:20:16.932 --> 00:20:19.935
- GARDEN OF EDEN, FOREVER SEPARATED FROM THE
- 00:20:19.935 --> 00:20:23.772
- INTIMACY WITH GOD THAT HE DESIGNED THEM FOR.
- 00:20:23.772 --> 00:20:26.775
- AND SO WHEN GOD RECOGNIZES NOT ONLY HAVE
- 00:20:26.775 --> 00:20:29.778
- THESE YAHOOS GONE TO THE WRONG MENU, IF I DO
- 00:20:29.778 --> 00:20:32.414
- NOT USHER THEM OUT, THEY WILL NEVER HAVE A SHOT AT
- 00:20:32.414 --> 00:20:39.221
- HAVING THE INTIMACY WITH ME I CREATED THEM
- 00:20:39.221 --> 00:20:42.457
- FOR REDEEMED.
- 00:20:42.457 --> 00:20:44.026
- SO HE USHERS THEM OUT OF THE GARDEN ONLY AFTER HE
- 00:20:44.026 --> 00:20:48.096
- CLOSED THEM IN LEATHER, USHERS THEM OUT.
- 00:20:48.096 --> 00:20:51.133
- YES, HE USHERS THEM OUT BECAUSE OF ORIGINAL SIN,
- 00:20:51.133 --> 00:20:54.503
- BUT Y'ALL, HE USHERS THEM OUT BECAUSE OF
- 00:20:54.503 --> 00:20:55.904
- MIRACULOUS MERCY.
- 00:20:55.904 --> 00:20:57.506
- THIS WAY I CAN BEGIN THE REDEMPTIVE PROCESS, AND
- 00:20:57.506 --> 00:21:01.543
- THEN HE ESTABLISHES AN ANGEL CHERUBIM, A CHUBBY
- 00:21:01.543 --> 00:21:04.112
- ANGEL, AN ANGEL IN SPANX, AND A FLAMING SWORD AS
- 00:21:04.112 --> 00:21:08.216
- THESE DIVINE BOUNCERS, NOT BECAUSE HUMANS ARE
- 00:21:08.216 --> 00:21:13.055
- BAD BUT BECAUSE HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE [SPEAKS
- 00:21:13.055 --> 00:21:17.659
- HEBREW] DOESN'T GET BACK TO THAT TREE AND BE
- 00:21:17.659 --> 00:21:19.728
- FOREVER FROZEN, SEPARATED FROM HIM.
- 00:21:19.728 --> 00:21:22.864
- IT'S ACTUALLY INCREDIBLY REDEMPTIVE IF WE
- 00:21:22.864 --> 00:21:25.667
- READ IT RIGHT.
- 00:21:25.667 --> 00:21:27.836
- WE'VE GOT TO SPEND A LITTLE MORE TIME WITH THE
- 00:21:27.836 --> 00:21:30.172
- SPIRIT AND GOD'S WORD.
- 00:21:30.172 --> 00:21:32.341
- HEAD TO THE RIGHT A QUARTER OF AN INCH
- 00:21:32.341 --> 00:21:34.009
- TO EXODUS.
- 00:21:34.009 --> 00:21:35.544
- THIS IS KIND OF A FUN ONE I'VE HEARD ALSO USED A
- 00:21:35.544 --> 00:21:37.412
- PUNITIVE TEXT OR A TEXT THAT PEOPLE WILL USE AS A
- 00:21:37.412 --> 00:21:41.283
- PROOF TEXT AND SAY THE BIBLE DOES NOT HAVE
- 00:21:41.283 --> 00:21:43.885
- ANY MORE APPLICATION TODAY.
- 00:21:43.885 --> 00:21:45.454
- WHEN PEOPLE SAY THE BIBLE IS BORING, I'M LIKE NO,
- 00:21:45.454 --> 00:21:48.523
- YOU'RE BORING, YOU STUPID IDIOT.
- 00:21:48.523 --> 00:21:50.859
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:21:50.859 --> 00:21:52.527
- THAT COMES FROM VERY DEEP GIFT OF MERCY.
- 00:21:52.527 --> 00:21:54.963
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:21:54.963 --> 00:21:57.032
- EXODUS CHAPTER 23: 19 ...
- 00:21:57.032 --> 00:22:08.043
- - GROSS.
- 00:22:08.343 --> 00:22:10.112
- SO WHY IS THAT IN THE BIBLE?
- 00:22:10.112 --> 00:22:11.713
- WHY ARE THESE KOSHER DIETARY LAWS IN THE BIBLE?
- 00:22:11.713 --> 00:22:14.850
- WELL, Y'ALL IF YOU STUDY THIS ANCIENT PERIOD OF
- 00:22:14.850 --> 00:22:17.519
- HISTORY YOU'LL FIND OUT THAT PAGANS IN THE OCCULT
- 00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:20.789
- WOULD HAVE THIS EXACT STEW BREWING WHEN THEY
- 00:22:20.789 --> 00:22:24.993
- DANCED BEFORE IDOLS AS A WAY OF GOADING IDOLS INTO
- 00:22:24.993 --> 00:22:29.898
- MAKING THEIR LAND MORE PRODUCTIVE.
- 00:22:29.898 --> 00:22:32.667
- THIS IS AN OCCULTIC STEW.
- 00:22:32.667 --> 00:22:35.337
- THIS IS ALSO PRE REFRIGERATION, SO GOD
- 00:22:35.337 --> 00:22:38.340
- SAYS YOU DRINK SOME MEDIUM RARE BABY GOAT IN
- 00:22:38.340 --> 00:22:42.677
- HOT MAMA'S MILK, THAT IS NASTY TOWN.
- 00:22:42.677 --> 00:22:46.181
- THAT IS JUST A SURE CASE OF ECOLI, SO LET ME KEEP
- 00:22:46.181 --> 00:22:50.685
- Y'ALL FROM DOING THAT.
- 00:22:50.685 --> 00:22:52.087
- AND ALSO Y'ALL DON'T NEED TO RETAIN
- 00:22:52.087 --> 00:22:54.222
- PAGAN PRACTICES.
- 00:22:54.222 --> 00:22:55.891
- THIS IS NOT A PUNITIVE GOD TRYING TO LIMIT WHAT
- 00:22:55.891 --> 00:22:58.326
- THEY EAT.
- 00:22:58.326 --> 00:22:59.628
- THIS IS A HEAVENLY FATHER WHO SAYS I'M GONNA
- 00:22:59.628 --> 00:23:02.197
- ESTABLISH PARAMETERS FOR YOUR GOOD.
- 00:23:02.197 --> 00:23:04.366
- YOU MAY NOT UNDERSTAND THEM BUT I'M DOING THIS
- 00:23:04.366 --> 00:23:07.102
- FOR YOUR GOOD, FOR REDEMPTION.
- 00:23:07.102 --> 00:23:08.937
- HEAD TO THE RIGHT TO DEUTERONOMY.
- 00:23:08.937 --> 00:23:10.705
- THIS IS MY FAVORITE NEW PASSAGE.
- 00:23:10.705 --> 00:23:12.674
- DEUTERONOMY 22.
- 00:23:12.674 --> 00:23:14.776
- THIS PASSAGE AND A FEW OTHERS LIKE TV BEEN USED
- 00:23:14.776 --> 00:23:18.146
- SPECIALLY IN THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE YEARS BY
- 00:23:18.146 --> 00:23:21.349
- LOTS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE, LOTS AND LOTS OF FORMER
- 00:23:21.349 --> 00:23:25.020
- EVANGELICALS TO PROVE THAT OUR GOD IS A
- 00:23:25.020 --> 00:23:28.924
- MISOGYNIST, THAT OUR GOD HATES WOMEN, THAT OUR GOD
- 00:23:28.924 --> 00:23:32.527
- OBJECTIFIES WOMEN, THAT OUR GOD OPPRESSES WOMEN.
- 00:23:32.527 --> 00:23:35.497
- Y'ALL, THAT'S STRAIGHT FROM THE PIT.
- 00:23:35.497 --> 00:23:37.566
- THAT IS NOT TRUE.
- 00:23:37.566 --> 00:23:40.202
- BUT IF WE DON'T TAKE TIME TO MOVE INTO SPIRITUAL
- 00:23:40.202 --> 00:23:43.004
- MATURITY, WE WILL BE JUST PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND
- 00:23:43.004 --> 00:23:46.575
- PULLED TO THE LEFT BY ALL KINDS OF WINDS OF HERESY.
- 00:23:46.575 --> 00:23:49.811
- LISTEN TO THIS PASSAGE BECAUSE IT DOES SOUND
- 00:23:49.811 --> 00:23:51.880
- FUNKY TOWN AT FIRST READ.
- 00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:53.782
- DEUTERONOMY 22: 28 AND 29 ...
- 00:23:53.782 --> 00:24:14.903
- I READ A BLOG RECENTLY ACCUSING GOD AND
- 00:24:15.770 --> 00:24:19.774
- CHRISTIAN CULTURE AS BEING MISOGYNISTIC,
- 00:24:19.774 --> 00:24:23.144
- PATRIARCHAL, AND ANTI-WOMAN BASED ON
- 00:24:23.144 --> 00:24:25.647
- THIS PASSAGE.
- 00:24:25.647 --> 00:24:27.883
- AND I WANTED SO BADLY TO CALL THIS WOMAN AND GO
- 00:24:27.883 --> 00:24:31.086
- HONEY, IT'S EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE BECAUSE WHEN GOD
- 00:24:31.086 --> 00:24:34.923
- GAVE THESE PARAMETERS, HE WAS GIVING IT TO A
- 00:24:34.923 --> 00:24:38.860
- PEOPLE GROUP WHO HAD BEEN FOR 400 YEARS IN SLAVERY
- 00:24:38.860 --> 00:24:43.064
- BASICALLY UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF WHAT WE'D
- 00:24:43.064 --> 00:24:45.433
- NOW CALL THE FIRST ITERATION OF SHARIA LAW,
- 00:24:45.433 --> 00:24:48.270
- AND WHAT THEY WERE USED TO IS ANYWHERE A 12 YEAR
- 00:24:48.270 --> 00:24:53.642
- OLD AND UP WOMAN WHO WAS NOT ENGAGED, ANYWHERE A
- 00:24:53.642 --> 00:24:58.113
- WOMAN OVER THE AGE OF 12 WENT, IF SHE WENT BY
- 00:24:58.113 --> 00:25:01.583
- HERSELF, SHE COULD BE RAPED BY ANY MAN.
- 00:25:01.583 --> 00:25:07.088
- AND THE MEN HAD NO CULPABILITY.
- 00:25:07.088 --> 00:25:09.491
- THAT'S WHY IF YOU STUDY JOSEPHUS, YOU STUDY
- 00:25:09.491 --> 00:25:11.359
- ANCIENT CULTURE, WOMEN ALMOST ALWAYS WENT
- 00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:14.029
- EVERYWHERE IN GROUPS.
- 00:25:14.029 --> 00:25:16.231
- AND GOD KNEW THAT HIS PRECIOUS WOMEN WERE BEING
- 00:25:16.231 --> 00:25:21.102
- HORRIFICALLY TREATED, SO HE ESTABLISHES A NEW RULE
- 00:25:21.102 --> 00:25:26.942
- UNDER THE CIVIL AUTHORITY.
- 00:25:26.942 --> 00:25:29.210
- HE ESTABLISHES A NEW RULE.
- 00:25:29.210 --> 00:25:31.413
- THIS IS NOT ABOUT PUNISHING WOMEN AND
- 00:25:31.413 --> 00:25:33.515
- MAKING THEM MARRY THEIR RAPIST.
- 00:25:33.515 --> 00:25:35.216
- THAT'S NOT AT ALL THE CASE HERE.
- 00:25:35.216 --> 00:25:37.352
- HE SAYS WHAT I'M GONNA DO IS ESTABLISHING SOMETHING
- 00:25:37.352 --> 00:25:40.455
- THAT IS RESTRAINING THE EVIL WHEREBY WOMEN HAVE
- 00:25:40.455 --> 00:25:43.992
- HAD TO SUFFER AND SURVIVE ALL THESE YEARS.
- 00:25:43.992 --> 00:25:48.096
- WHAT GOD WAS DOING WAS SAYING I'M GONNA PROTECT
- 00:25:48.096 --> 00:25:50.865
- MY GIRLS.
- 00:25:50.865 --> 00:25:52.467
- CULTURE, YOU HAVE ALLOWED WOMEN TO BE SUBJUGATED
- 00:25:52.467 --> 00:25:56.304
- AND VIOLENTLY MISTREATED, BUT I'M GONNA RESTORE
- 00:25:56.304 --> 00:25:58.873
- THE INHERENT DIGNITY AND VALUE THAT I BREATHED
- 00:25:58.873 --> 00:26:02.677
- INTO WOMEN.
- 00:26:02.677 --> 00:26:04.846
- BECAUSE WE DON'T TAKE ENOUGH TIME ASKING SPIRIT
- 00:26:04.846 --> 00:26:08.249
- TO REVEAL THESE REDEMPTIVE TRUTHS TO US,
- 00:26:08.249 --> 00:26:11.586
- YOU AND I GO OH, I DON'T KNOW.
- 00:26:11.586 --> 00:26:13.555
- I GUESS IT IS A MISOGYNIST.
- 00:26:13.555 --> 00:26:15.357
- I MEAN, I GUESS THE GOD OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IS A
- 00:26:15.357 --> 00:26:17.892
- UNIBROWED LIBRARIAN, AND THEN JESUS KIND OF MORPHS
- 00:26:17.892 --> 00:26:21.029
- INTO THIS LIKE REALLY WARM FUZZY ENNEAGRAM GUY
- 00:26:21.029 --> 00:26:24.399
- IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.
- 00:26:24.399 --> 00:26:26.768
- Y'ALL, IF THAT WAS TRUE, GOD WOULD BE BIPOLAR.
- 00:26:26.768 --> 00:26:28.870
- THAT IS NOT TRUE.
- 00:26:28.870 --> 00:26:30.472
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:26:30.472 --> 00:26:31.640
- AND HERE'S ANOTHER THING THAT GETS ALL UP IN MY CRAW.
- 00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:34.275
- I'M TELLING YOU, IT BUGS ME SO BAD.
- 00:26:34.275 --> 00:26:36.544
- I'M WEARING SPANX AND IT MAKES ME HOT AND IF
- 00:26:36.544 --> 00:26:38.713
- THESE SPANX BREAK, SOME OF Y'ALL ARE GONNA
- 00:26:38.713 --> 00:26:40.782
- LOSE AN EYE THIS MORNING, BUT THIS GETS JUST LIKE A
- 00:26:40.782 --> 00:26:44.786
- BURR ALL THE UP IN MY SPANX.
- 00:26:44.786 --> 00:26:46.988
- I'VE HEARD SO MANY PEOPLE SAY WELL, JESUS-- JESUS
- 00:26:46.988 --> 00:26:52.927
- SAYS REFERRING TO THE NEW TESTAMENT.
- 00:26:52.927 --> 00:26:54.863
- AND I'M LIKE CHRISTIANITY 101, GENESIS 1: 26 - 27,
- 00:26:54.863 --> 00:27:00.001
- GOD IS A TRINITARIAN GOD.
- 00:27:00.001 --> 00:27:02.170
- GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT.
- 00:27:02.170 --> 00:27:04.472
- SO JUST BECAUSE IT ISN'T RED DOESN'T MEAN JESUS
- 00:27:04.472 --> 00:27:07.475
- DIDN'T SAY IT!
- 00:27:07.475 --> 00:27:09.511
- DRIVES ME CRAZY.
- 00:27:09.511 --> 00:27:13.515
- EVERY SINGLE WORD IN HERE OUR REDEEMER BREATHED.
- 00:27:13.515 --> 00:27:15.717
- LUKE 24, HE SAID ALL OF THAT IS ABOUT ME, BABY.
- 00:27:15.717 --> 00:27:18.620
- ALL OF THAT IS ABOUT ME.
- 00:27:18.620 --> 00:27:20.321
- I HAVE LOVED YOU SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, SO
- 00:27:20.321 --> 00:27:23.558
- OUR GOD IS NOT ONLY NOT A MISOGYNIST.
- 00:27:23.558 --> 00:27:26.528
- HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN THE PROCESS OF
- 00:27:26.528 --> 00:27:30.932
- REDEEMING HIS PEOPLE.
- 00:27:30.932 --> 00:27:32.701
- HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRO WOMEN,
- 00:27:32.701 --> 00:27:34.769
- JUST AS HE'S ALWAYS BEEN PRO MEN AND PRO CHILDREN.
- 00:27:34.769 --> 00:27:37.572
- HE'S SUCH A KIND GOD.
- 00:27:37.572 --> 00:27:40.442
- IT'S JUST WE'RE GETTING THESE CLIFF NOTES THAT
- 00:27:40.442 --> 00:27:42.610
- ARE HERETICAL, Y'ALL.
- 00:27:42.610 --> 00:27:44.412
- DON'T LISTEN TO THE CLIFF NOTES.
- 00:27:44.412 --> 00:27:46.181
- READ THE WHOLE BOOK!
- 00:27:46.181 --> 00:27:48.083
- [APPLAUSE]
- 00:27:48.083 --> 00:27:51.319
- MIROSLAV VOLF, MIROSLAV IS ONE OF MY
- 00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:55.857
- FAVORITE THEOLOGIANS. I LOVE ALL THE DEAD GUYS.
- 00:27:55.857 --> 00:27:58.426
- THIS GUY IS STILL ALIVE SO I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL
- 00:27:58.426 --> 00:28:00.528
- BECAUSE I DON'T WANT HIM TO THINK I'M
- 00:28:00.528 --> 00:28:02.263
- INAPPROPRIATE BECAUSE HE'S MARRIED,
- 00:28:02.263 --> 00:28:03.865
- SO IT'S A VERY PLATONIC CRUSH.
- 00:28:03.865 --> 00:28:05.867
- I'M NOT GONNA LIFT UP MY PANTS BECAUSE I HAVE
- 00:28:05.867 --> 00:28:07.669
- TATTOOED HIS NAME ON THE BACK OF MY CALF,
- 00:28:07.669 --> 00:28:10.038
- BUT OTHER THAN THAT... [LAUGHTER]
- 00:28:10.038 --> 00:28:12.173
- IT'S A VERY LEVITICAL KIND OF CRUSH.
- 00:28:12.173 --> 00:28:13.675
- BUT HE SAYS THIS IN A BOOK YOU SHOULD READ
- 00:28:13.675 --> 00:28:15.844
- CALLED CAPTIVE TO THE WORD OF GOD.
- 00:28:15.844 --> 00:28:18.413
- HE SAYS THIS, "THE RICH POLYPHONY CONTAINED IN
- 00:28:18.413 --> 00:28:21.883
- THE BIBLE, HARMONIOUS AS WELL AS DISCORDANT,
- 00:28:21.883 --> 00:28:24.619
- IS ITS STRENGTH NOT ITS WEAKNESS.
- 00:28:24.619 --> 00:28:26.955
- IT MAKES THE BIBLE ALIVE, A WITNESS TO GOD SPEAKING
- 00:28:26.955 --> 00:28:30.658
- AND ACTING AT VARIOUS POINTS INTO THE
- 00:28:30.658 --> 00:28:33.094
- DYNAMICS OF LIFE, CAPABLE OF BEING TRANSLATED INTO
- 00:28:33.094 --> 00:28:35.797
- A WIDE VARIETY OF SITUATIONS TODAY.
- 00:28:35.797 --> 00:28:38.166
- TRUTHFUL THEOLOGICAL READINGS OF THE BIBLE
- 00:28:38.166 --> 00:28:40.301
- WILL ALWAYS SEEK TO HONOR BOTH THE OVERARCHING
- 00:28:40.301 --> 00:28:44.639
- STORY WHICH GIVES THE BIBLE IT'S UNITY AND THE
- 00:28:44.639 --> 00:28:48.143
- CONCRETE CHARACTER OF ITS DIVERSE TEXT."
- 00:28:48.143 --> 00:28:53.014
- IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE TAKE THE TIME TO MOVE
- 00:28:53.014 --> 00:28:55.550
- TOWARDS SPIRITUAL MATURITY,
- 00:28:55.550 --> 00:28:57.051
- WE RECOGNIZE OH, MY GOODNESS,
- 00:28:57.051 --> 00:28:58.753
- IF I WAS A WOMAN LIVING IN THAT ERA,
- 00:28:58.753 --> 00:29:02.323
- RIGHT AFTER BEING UNDER 400 YEARS OF SLAVERY IN
- 00:29:02.323 --> 00:29:05.260
- EGYPT, THIS WOULD BE THE MOST LIBERATING THING I
- 00:29:05.260 --> 00:29:08.129
- COULD EVER EXPERIENCE BECAUSE THE KING OF ALL
- 00:29:08.129 --> 00:29:11.232
- KINGS IS SAYING BABY, YOU ARE WORTH PROTECTING,
- 00:29:11.232 --> 00:29:14.269
- YOU ARE PRECIOUS TO ME.
- 00:29:14.269 --> 00:29:17.038
- INSTEAD, WE HEAR THIS GROSS, IT'S NOT EVEN,
- 00:29:17.038 --> 00:29:21.776
- IT'S NOT EVEN A CLIFF NOTE,
- 00:29:21.776 --> 00:29:24.579
- IT'S A GROSS HERETICAL EXPLANATION THAT'S TAKEN
- 00:29:24.579 --> 00:29:28.149
- TOTALLY OUT OF CONTEXT.
- 00:29:28.149 --> 00:29:30.685
- WE DON'T NEED TO JUST MOVE ON TOWARD INSPIRATION.
- 00:29:30.685 --> 00:29:34.088
- WE HAVE GOT TO MOVE ON TOWARD MATURITY.
- 00:29:34.088 --> 00:29:36.524
- IT'S INCUMBENT UPON US, WHETHER YOU ARE HERE AND
- 00:29:36.524 --> 00:29:39.594
- YOU ARE A YOUNGIN' OR WHETHER YOU'RE ONE OF THE
- 00:29:39.594 --> 00:29:42.197
- WOMEN WHO STAND UP-- CHRIS AND I TEASE ABOUT
- 00:29:42.197 --> 00:29:44.465
- HOW PROPEL STARTS AT BELLY RINGS AND GOES TO
- 00:29:44.465 --> 00:29:46.634
- BLADDER CONTROL PROBLEMS. [LAUGHTER]
- 00:29:46.634 --> 00:29:48.703
- WHEREVER YOU ARE ON THE AGE CONTINUUM,
- 00:29:48.703 --> 00:29:52.674
- IF YOU KNOW JESUS, IT IS INCUMBENT UPON US
- 00:29:52.674 --> 00:29:56.377
- TO SPEND TIME ALONE WITH HIM, TO DIVE INTO
- 00:29:56.377 --> 00:29:59.781
- THIS BOOK BECAUSE IT IS A LOVE STORY.
- 00:29:59.781 --> 00:30:01.783
- THE OVERARCHING METANARRATIVE IS THERE IS THIS PERFECT,
- 00:30:01.783 --> 00:30:06.187
- HOLY GOD WHO IS ABSOLUTELY SMITTEN
- 00:30:06.187 --> 00:30:10.124
- WITH SINNERS LIKE US.
- 00:30:10.124 --> 00:30:11.559
- HE'S NOT MAD AT US, HE'S NOT A UNIBROWED LIBRARIAN
- 00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:15.563
- WHO BOOTS US OUT OF HIS PARTY WHEN WE MESS UP.
- 00:30:15.563 --> 00:30:18.399
- THAT IS NOT HIS CHARACTER.
- 00:30:18.399 --> 00:30:20.602
- IF YOU STUDY WHAT HE SAYS IN CONTEXT,
- 00:30:20.602 --> 00:30:22.470
- YOU GO OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN,
- 00:30:22.470 --> 00:30:25.340
- HE'S A REDEEMER.
- 00:30:25.340 --> 00:30:26.774
- OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, HE IS HERDING US,
- 00:30:26.774 --> 00:30:31.246
- SHEPHERDING US TOWARD OUR GOOD.
- 00:30:31.246 --> 00:30:33.715
- HE'S NOT THIS PUNITIVE RULE MAKER.
- 00:30:33.715 --> 00:30:36.284
- HE'S A MERCIFUL REDEEMER. HE'S A KIND PARENT.
- 00:30:36.284 --> 00:30:41.222
- EVERYTHING HE DOES IS ULTIMATELY FOR OUR GOOD.
- 00:30:41.222 --> 00:30:44.225
- LET'S LOOK AT ONE LAST PASSAGE,
- 00:30:44.225 --> 00:30:45.827
- AND THIS MAY BE MY FAVORITE BECAUSE
- 00:30:45.827 --> 00:30:47.795
- I LOVE ME SOME PETER.
- 00:30:47.795 --> 00:30:49.430
- TURN TO JOHN CHAPTER 21.
- 00:30:49.430 --> 00:30:51.766
- I LOVE PETER BECAUSE HE IS JUST HOT MESS ON A STICK.
- 00:30:51.766 --> 00:30:54.535
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:30:54.535 --> 00:30:56.471
- YOU KNOW, I MEAN HE'S JUST CONSTANTLY STEPPING
- 00:30:56.471 --> 00:30:58.439
- IN IT, CONSTANTLY MESSING UP.
- 00:30:58.439 --> 00:31:00.942
- YOU KNOW, EVEN IF YOU'RE A "CHREASTER",
- 00:31:00.942 --> 00:31:03.878
- YOU GO TO CHURCH JUST ON CHRISTMAS AND EASTER AND
- 00:31:03.878 --> 00:31:05.980
- SOMEBODY INVITED YOU TO PROPEL AND THEY TOLD YOU
- 00:31:05.980 --> 00:31:08.950
- THIS HAD TO DO WITH ESSENTIAL OILS,
- 00:31:08.950 --> 00:31:11.219
- EVEN IF YOU'RE A "CHREASTER",
- 00:31:11.219 --> 00:31:14.055
- I BET YOU A NICKEL YOU KNOW ABOUT PETER BECAUSE
- 00:31:14.055 --> 00:31:17.125
- WHEN YOU GO TO CHURCH AT EASTER,
- 00:31:17.125 --> 00:31:19.193
- WE ALMOST ALWAYS TALK ABOUT PETER'S INFAMOUS
- 00:31:19.193 --> 00:31:22.330
- BETRAYAL, THAT HE THREW JESUS UNDER THE BUS
- 00:31:22.330 --> 00:31:25.333
- AT JESUS' MOST POIGNANT PLACE OF NEED,
- 00:31:25.333 --> 00:31:28.937
- AND HE SAID THREE TIMES VEHEMENTLY AND VULGARLY,
- 00:31:28.937 --> 00:31:32.807
- I DON'T KNOW THE MAN.
- 00:31:32.807 --> 00:31:35.043
- AND THEN HE THREW IN SOME EXPLETIVES JUST SO THE
- 00:31:35.043 --> 00:31:37.645
- CROWD WOULD BE CONVINCED THERE'S NO WAY A HOT MESS
- 00:31:37.645 --> 00:31:41.349
- LIKE THAT MAN COULD ACTUALLY BE IN ALIGNMENT
- 00:31:41.349 --> 00:31:43.918
- WITH THE CHRIST.
- 00:31:43.918 --> 00:31:46.554
- SO MOST OF US KNOW THAT BETRAYAL,
- 00:31:46.554 --> 00:31:49.090
- PROBABLY THE MOST INFAMOUS BETRAYAL
- 00:31:49.090 --> 00:31:50.825
- IN ALL OF HOLY WRIT.
- 00:31:50.825 --> 00:31:53.194
- AND THEN HERE IS THE RESTORATION THAT YOU
- 00:31:53.194 --> 00:31:55.763
- PROBABLY ALSO KNOW.
- 00:31:55.763 --> 00:31:57.532
- I LOVE THIS STORY.
- 00:31:57.532 --> 00:31:59.400
- WE'RE GONNA READ IT IN THE BLACK AND WHITE AND
- 00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:02.270
- RED AND THEN WE'RE GONNA READ BETWEEN THE LINES
- 00:32:02.270 --> 00:32:05.106
- BECAUSE MAN, THE REDEMPTION IN THIS STORY
- 00:32:05.106 --> 00:32:06.741
- IS EVEN BETTER THAN YOU READ AT FIRST GLANCE.
- 00:32:06.741 --> 00:32:09.177
- JOHN 21 VERSE 15.
- 00:32:09.177 --> 00:32:11.512
- WHEN THEY HAD FINISHED BREAKFAST,
- 00:32:11.512 --> 00:32:13.314
- AND OF COURSE THIS IS AFTER THE CRUCIFIXION,
- 00:32:13.314 --> 00:32:15.783
- AFTER THE RESURRECTION, AND THIS IS DURING THAT
- 00:32:15.783 --> 00:32:19.120
- TIME PERIOD WHERE FOR 40 DAYS JESUS RUN TO AND FRO
- 00:32:19.120 --> 00:32:23.324
- ABOUT THE EARTH IN HIS RESURRECTED BODY AND
- 00:32:23.324 --> 00:32:26.761
- APPEARED, ACCORDING TO ACTS AND JOE CEPHAS,
- 00:32:26.761 --> 00:32:29.464
- TO MORE THAN 100 PEOPLE IN HIS RESURRECTED BODY.
- 00:32:29.464 --> 00:32:33.368
- AND YOU REMEMBER PETER WAS SO CONFUSED BY THE
- 00:32:33.368 --> 00:32:35.970
- CRUCIFIXION AND FINDING AN EMPTY TOMB.
- 00:32:35.970 --> 00:32:39.007
- DO YOU REMEMBER HOW HE RESPONDED AT THE
- 00:32:39.007 --> 00:32:40.408
- BEGINNING OF JOHN 21?
- 00:32:40.408 --> 00:32:42.477
- VERY TYPICAL MALE STATEMENT,
- 00:32:42.477 --> 00:32:43.945
- I'M GOING FISHING. [LAUGHTER]
- 00:32:43.945 --> 00:32:46.114
- I'M GOING FISHING.
- 00:32:46.114 --> 00:32:47.815
- WHAT'S SO PRECIOUS AT THE BEGINNING OF JOHN 21 IS
- 00:32:47.815 --> 00:32:51.285
- THE OTHER MEN, YOU KNOW THEY'RE DOWN TO ELEVEN
- 00:32:51.285 --> 00:32:54.822
- DISCIPLES BECAUSE JUDAS HAS GONE,
- 00:32:54.822 --> 00:32:57.959
- AND SO THERE'S PETE AND THEN THERE'S TEN LEFT AND
- 00:32:57.959 --> 00:33:00.695
- THE OTHER TEN WHO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT PETE HAS
- 00:33:00.695 --> 00:33:04.098
- DONE SAY WE WILL GO WITH YOU.
- 00:33:04.098 --> 00:33:08.336
- WE COULD PREACH A YEARS' WORTH OF WOMEN'S
- 00:33:08.336 --> 00:33:10.538
- CONFERENCES ON THAT BECAUSE AS MUCH AS IT
- 00:33:10.538 --> 00:33:13.608
- GRIEVES ME, THESE DECONSTRUCTION NARRATIVES
- 00:33:13.608 --> 00:33:16.944
- WE'RE READING, THESE DE-CONVERSION NARRATIVES
- 00:33:16.944 --> 00:33:19.380
- I SEE WEEK AFTER WEEK AFTER WEEK ON SOCIAL
- 00:33:19.380 --> 00:33:22.450
- MEDIA, IT'S REALLY EASY FOR US TO DRAW THE LINE
- 00:33:22.450 --> 00:33:25.420
- EVEN DEEPER BETWEEN CONFUSED SAINTS
- 00:33:25.420 --> 00:33:28.389
- AND WHAT WE BELIEVE.
- 00:33:28.389 --> 00:33:30.691
- AND I'M LIKE LET'S LOOK AT THE NARRATIVE IN SCRIPTURE.
- 00:33:30.691 --> 00:33:35.296
- PETE HAS THROWN CHRIST HIMSELF UNDER THE BUS.
- 00:33:35.296 --> 00:33:38.533
- YOU TALK ABOUT APOSTATE.
- 00:33:38.533 --> 00:33:40.435
- HE SAID I DON'T EVEN KNOW HIM,
- 00:33:40.435 --> 00:33:41.803
- RIGHT BEFORE JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED,
- 00:33:41.803 --> 00:33:43.805
- AND IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS THE TEN WHO
- 00:33:43.805 --> 00:33:47.108
- HE'S BEEN IN A SMALL GROUP WITH SAY WE'VE GOT YOU.
- 00:33:47.108 --> 00:33:50.778
- WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK. YOU COME BE WITH US.
- 00:33:50.778 --> 00:33:54.248
- WE WANT TO BE PART OF YOUR REDEMPTION,
- 00:33:54.248 --> 00:33:56.651
- YOUR RESTORATION PROCESS.
- 00:33:56.651 --> 00:33:58.653
- THEY GO FISHING, JESUS APPEARS ON THE WATER,
- 00:33:58.653 --> 00:34:01.856
- IT'S AN EXACT BOOKEND TO WHERE PETE FIRST DECIDED
- 00:34:01.856 --> 00:34:05.293
- HE WAS THE CHRIST. REMEMBER THERE'S THE MIRACULOUS
- 00:34:05.293 --> 00:34:07.462
- CATCH OF FISH IN LUKE'S GOSPEL CHAPTER FIVE,
- 00:34:07.462 --> 00:34:10.665
- AND NOW HERE AT JOHN 21, SAME EXACT LAKE.
- 00:34:10.665 --> 00:34:13.201
- IT'S CALLED A DIFFERENT THING FOR POLITICAL
- 00:34:13.201 --> 00:34:15.169
- REASONS, BUT THEY'RE AT THE EXACT SAME SPOT THAT
- 00:34:15.169 --> 00:34:18.439
- PETE BEGAN HIS EARTHLY MINISTRY WITH JESUS
- 00:34:18.439 --> 00:34:21.042
- CHRIST WHERE HE WAS UNDONE BY THE MIRACULOUS
- 00:34:21.042 --> 00:34:23.344
- CATCH OF FISH, AND THEN HE SAYS LORD DON'T LOOK
- 00:34:23.344 --> 00:34:25.646
- AT ME, I'M A SINFUL MAN. REMEMBER THIS?
- 00:34:25.646 --> 00:34:28.216
- HE THREW HIMSELF IN THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT
- 00:34:28.216 --> 00:34:29.784
- AND JESUS SAID OH, PETE COME ON.
- 00:34:29.784 --> 00:34:32.587
- I'M NOT MAD AT YOU.
- 00:34:32.587 --> 00:34:33.788
- I JUST WANT YOU TO CHANGE YOUR FACEBOOK STATUS.
- 00:34:33.788 --> 00:34:35.723
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:34:35.723 --> 00:34:37.125
- YOU'RE GONNA GO FROM BEING A FISHERMAN
- 00:34:37.125 --> 00:34:38.426
- TO A FISHER OF MAN.
- 00:34:38.426 --> 00:34:39.794
- IN JOHN 21, THEY'RE AT THE EXACT SAME GEOGRAPHICAL SPOT.
- 00:34:39.794 --> 00:34:43.698
- GOD KNOWS WE ARE NOT THE SHARPEST TOOLS IN THE SHED.
- 00:34:43.698 --> 00:34:46.601
- HE MAKES THIS REDEMPTION SO CLEAR.
- 00:34:46.601 --> 00:34:48.402
- THEY'RE AT THE EXACT SAME SPOT,
- 00:34:48.402 --> 00:34:50.571
- PETER'S IN A BOAT AGAIN, A STRANGER APPEARS ON
- 00:34:50.571 --> 00:34:53.941
- SHORE, THEY HAVEN'T CAUGHT ANYTHING,
- 00:34:53.941 --> 00:34:55.443
- HE SAYS THROW YOUR NETS TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE
- 00:34:55.443 --> 00:34:57.311
- BOAT, AND THEN THEY CATCH SO MANY FISH BECAUSE
- 00:34:57.311 --> 00:35:00.481
- FISH ARE LEAPING IN TO THEIR NETS.
- 00:35:00.481 --> 00:35:02.683
- DON'T YOU KNOW EVEN PETE WENT THIS FEELS
- 00:35:02.683 --> 00:35:04.352
- A LITTLE DEJA VU TO ME.
- 00:35:04.352 --> 00:35:06.721
- IT'S EXACTLY THE MIRACLE THAT BEGAN HIS TIME WITH
- 00:35:06.721 --> 00:35:10.491
- JESUS EARTHLY MINISTRY, AND THEN JESUS COMES TO
- 00:35:10.491 --> 00:35:13.594
- SHORE WHEN THEY HAD FINISHED BREAKING
- 00:35:13.594 --> 00:35:15.229
- BREAKFAST, JESUS SAID TO SIMON PETER,
- 00:35:15.229 --> 00:35:17.665
- SIMON SON OF JOHN, DO YOU LOVE ME MORE THAN THESE?
- 00:35:17.665 --> 00:35:20.468
- AND PETE SAYS TO JESUS, YES LORD,
- 00:35:20.468 --> 00:35:22.436
- YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU, AND JESUS SAYS TO PETER,
- 00:35:22.436 --> 00:35:25.106
- FEED MY SHEEP. AND THEN THEY HAVE THAT
- 00:35:25.106 --> 00:35:27.241
- SAME CONVERSATION TWO MORE TIMES.
- 00:35:27.241 --> 00:35:29.143
- THREE TIMES JESUS SAYS PETE, DO YOU LOVE ME?
- 00:35:29.143 --> 00:35:32.213
- AND PETE SAYS YES LORD, YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU.
- 00:35:32.213 --> 00:35:34.949
- NOW WHY HAVE Y'ALL BEEN TAUGHT THEY HAVE THAT
- 00:35:34.949 --> 00:35:36.817
- SAME CONVERSATION THREE TIMES?
- 00:35:36.817 --> 00:35:39.086
- THAT PETE ANSWERS YES, I LOVE YOU THREE TIMES.
- 00:35:39.086 --> 00:35:41.856
- WHY HAVE YOU BEEN TAUGHT THAT?
- 00:35:41.856 --> 00:35:43.925
- EXACTLY.
- 00:35:43.925 --> 00:35:46.360
- BECAUSE PETE DENIED HIM THREE TIMES SO BASED ON
- 00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:50.097
- ESPECIALLY FIRST CENTURY JEWISH PREOCCUPATION WITH
- 00:35:50.097 --> 00:35:52.800
- NUMEROLOGY, THEY WERE MAKING SURE WE KNOW HE
- 00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:56.103
- WAS RESTORED BECAUSE EXACTLY THREE TIMES
- 00:35:56.103 --> 00:35:58.372
- HE CONFESSES HE DOES KNOW JESUS.
- 00:35:58.372 --> 00:36:00.308
- THAT'S SO ANEMIC.
- 00:36:00.308 --> 00:36:02.643
- THAT'S SO NOT THE MIRACLE OF THIS PASSAGE.
- 00:36:02.643 --> 00:36:05.546
- IT'S TRUE, BUT IT'S LIKE GOOD,
- 00:36:05.546 --> 00:36:07.949
- THIS IS LIKE HAVING CHIPS OR CELERY WITH QUESO.
- 00:36:07.949 --> 00:36:11.352
- YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE CHIPS WITH QUESO.
- 00:36:11.352 --> 00:36:13.588
- THE FULLNESS OF THIS PASSAGE IS JESUS USES A
- 00:36:13.588 --> 00:36:17.992
- DIFFERENT WORD FOR LOVE HERE.
- 00:36:17.992 --> 00:36:19.527
- REMEMBER IN THE GREEK THE NEW TESTAMENT LANGUAGE,
- 00:36:19.527 --> 00:36:21.329
- IT'S GREEK AND ARAMAIC.
- 00:36:21.329 --> 00:36:22.997
- THERE ARE THREE WORDS FOR LOVE.
- 00:36:22.997 --> 00:36:24.632
- THERE'S EROS WHICH IS GETTING JIGGY WITH IT,
- 00:36:24.632 --> 00:36:27.368
- THAT'S THE KIND OF LOVE I HOPE IF I EVER GET HOOKED
- 00:36:27.368 --> 00:36:29.303
- UP ON E-HARMONY TO HAVE AS A SINGLE WOMAN.
- 00:36:29.303 --> 00:36:32.006
- SO YOU'VE GOT EROS AND THEN YOU'VE GOT PHILEO,
- 00:36:33.040 --> 00:36:35.276
- WHICH IS JUST A FRIENDSHIP KIND OF FAMILY
- 00:36:35.276 --> 00:36:38.579
- KIND OF LOVE, AND THEN YOU'VE GOT AGAPEO.
- 00:36:38.579 --> 00:36:41.249
- AGAPEO IS A SACRIFICIAL LOVE.
- 00:36:41.249 --> 00:36:42.817
- IT'S LOVING SOMEONE ELSE MORE THAN ANYTHING.
- 00:36:42.817 --> 00:36:45.553
- SO THE FIRST TIME JESUS ASKS PETE,
- 00:36:45.553 --> 00:36:48.022
- PETE DO YOU LOVE ME?
- 00:36:48.022 --> 00:36:49.123
- HE SAYS HEY PETE, DO YOU AGAPEO ME?
- 00:36:49.123 --> 00:36:51.659
- DO YOU LOVE ME MORE THAN ANYTHING?
- 00:36:51.659 --> 00:36:54.195
- AND PETE SAYS LORD, YOU KNOW YOU LOVE ME.
- 00:36:54.195 --> 00:36:57.431
- I JUST THREW YOU UNDER THE BUS, JESUS.
- 00:36:57.431 --> 00:37:00.635
- YOU KNOW THE BEST I GOT IS PHILEO.
- 00:37:00.635 --> 00:37:03.938
- BEST I GOT IS LOVING YOU LIKE A BROTHER.
- 00:37:03.938 --> 00:37:06.073
- SECOND TIME JESUS SAYS TO PETE,
- 00:37:06.073 --> 00:37:07.675
- I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE COMPASSION IN HIS
- 00:37:07.675 --> 00:37:09.377
- COUNTENANCE, PETER DO YOU AGAPEO ME?
- 00:37:09.377 --> 00:37:13.180
- LORD, YOU KNOW ME. YOU KNOW WHAT I JUST DID.
- 00:37:13.180 --> 00:37:17.318
- I PHILEO YOU.
- 00:37:17.318 --> 00:37:20.121
- THIRD TIME, THE SCRIPTURE DOESN'T SAY THIS, THIS
- 00:37:20.121 --> 00:37:23.457
- IS MY MENTAL PICTURE SO THIS IS JUST MY IMAGINATION.
- 00:37:23.457 --> 00:37:26.861
- I WANT TO MAKE THAT CLEAR.
- 00:37:26.861 --> 00:37:28.095
- BUT THE THIRD TIME I IMAGINE PETER JUST
- 00:37:28.095 --> 00:37:29.864
- STARING AT HIS FEET IN THE SAND,
- 00:37:29.864 --> 00:37:32.733
- JUST STARING AT HIS SHOES JUST OVERWHELMED BY HIS
- 00:37:32.733 --> 00:37:36.971
- OWN CULPABILITY, THAT HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE'S
- 00:37:36.971 --> 00:37:39.774
- DONE, AND THE THIRD TIME I PICTURE JESUS PUTTING
- 00:37:39.774 --> 00:37:43.144
- HIS HAND, HIS NAIL SCARRED HAND UNDER
- 00:37:43.144 --> 00:37:45.746
- PETE'S CHIN AND TILTING THAT DISCIPLE'S FACE UP
- 00:37:45.746 --> 00:37:49.483
- TOWARD HIM LOOKING IN HIS EYES AND HE GOES PETE,
- 00:37:49.483 --> 00:37:51.452
- DO YOU PHILEO ME?
- 00:37:51.452 --> 00:37:54.722
- HE KNOWS PETE DOESN'T AGAPEO HIM AT THAT POINT.
- 00:37:54.722 --> 00:37:58.225
- HE LOWERS THE LOVE BAR FOR THIS MAN
- 00:37:58.225 --> 00:38:01.829
- SO MANY PEOPLE WOULD CASTIGATE AS A LOSER,
- 00:38:01.829 --> 00:38:04.265
- HE GOES I'M NOT KICKING YOU OFF THE TEAM, SON.
- 00:38:04.265 --> 00:38:07.501
- I'M NOT KICKING YOU OFF THE TEAM.
- 00:38:07.501 --> 00:38:08.736
- I'M ACTUALLY NAMING YOU TEAM CAPTAIN.
- 00:38:08.736 --> 00:38:11.005
- I'M GONNA BUILD A WHOLE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH
- 00:38:11.005 --> 00:38:12.640
- ON YOUR SHOULDERS.
- 00:38:12.640 --> 00:38:14.809
- Y'ALL, THIS BOOK IS SO MUCH MORE REDEMPTIVE
- 00:38:14.809 --> 00:38:17.411
- THAN WE USUALLY BELIEVE IT TO BE.
- 00:38:17.411 --> 00:38:20.614
- I WAS AT A CONFERENCE RECENTLY,
- 00:38:20.614 --> 00:38:22.917
- IT WAS A CONFERENCE OF PEOPLE WHO WERE GATHERING
- 00:38:22.917 --> 00:38:25.386
- WHO WERE IN RECOVERY FROM ADDICTION,
- 00:38:25.386 --> 00:38:28.222
- EITHER DRUGS OR SEXUAL ADDICTION, AND IT WAS
- 00:38:28.222 --> 00:38:30.825
- A FRIDAY NIGHT ALL DAY SATURDAY CONFERENCE.
- 00:38:30.825 --> 00:38:32.827
- FRIDAY NIGHT I WAS SITTING OVER IN THAT
- 00:38:32.827 --> 00:38:34.528
- AREA, AND THERE WAS A WOMAN UP AT THE FRONT
- 00:38:34.528 --> 00:38:36.764
- DANCING DURING WORSHIP THAT I WAS COMPLETELY
- 00:38:36.764 --> 00:38:39.667
- DISTRACTED BY, JUST RADIANT OLDER WOMAN,
- 00:38:39.667 --> 00:38:43.003
- LONG, GRAY HAIR, SHE WAS WEARING A WHITE GAUZY
- 00:38:43.003 --> 00:38:46.774
- SKIRT, AND SHE WAS JUST PRAISING THE LORD AND
- 00:38:46.774 --> 00:38:50.678
- DANCING AND DIPPING AND SPINNING.
- 00:38:50.678 --> 00:38:53.047
- SO I WAS JUST UNDONE BY THIS WOMAN'S JUST
- 00:38:53.047 --> 00:38:55.349
- LIBERTY IN WORSHIP.
- 00:38:55.349 --> 00:38:57.618
- AND I THOUGHT MAN, I'D LOVE TO KNOW HER STORY.
- 00:38:57.618 --> 00:39:00.254
- BECAUSE IN MY EXPERIENCE, THE MOST LIBERATED SAINTS
- 00:39:00.254 --> 00:39:03.958
- USUALLY HAVE THE MOST AMAZING STORIES OF RESCUE.
- 00:39:03.958 --> 00:39:06.427
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:39:06.427 --> 00:39:08.329
- AND SO I THOUGHT MAN, I WISH I COULD MEET THAT WOMAN.
- 00:39:08.329 --> 00:39:11.966
- WELL, SURE ENOUGH, THE NEXT MORNING I GOT THERE
- 00:39:11.966 --> 00:39:14.235
- EARLY BECAUSE I WAS TEACHING THE NEXT
- 00:39:14.235 --> 00:39:15.770
- MORNING, AND THIS WOMAN WAS IN CHURCH EARLY.
- 00:39:15.770 --> 00:39:18.606
- AND I THOUGHT OH, COOL, IT'S ONLY THE TWO OF US
- 00:39:18.606 --> 00:39:20.741
- IN THE SANCTUARY, THE PROGRAM HASN'T STARTED,
- 00:39:20.741 --> 00:39:23.043
- SO I WENT OVER TO HER AND I CONFESSED THAT I HAD
- 00:39:23.043 --> 00:39:25.479
- WATCHED HER THE NIGHT BEFORE,
- 00:39:25.479 --> 00:39:27.314
- AND I SAID MA'AM I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU WATCHING
- 00:39:27.314 --> 00:39:29.517
- YOU WORSHIP JESUS JUST UNDID ME.
- 00:39:29.517 --> 00:39:33.921
- YOUR FREEDOM AND THE WAY YOU CAN TELL YOU ARE SO
- 00:39:33.921 --> 00:39:36.290
- MADLY IN LOVE WITH JESUS, I WAS JUST STRUCK BY HOW
- 00:39:36.290 --> 00:39:41.629
- GOOD HE IS BY THE WAY YOU RESPONDED TO HIM.
- 00:39:41.629 --> 00:39:45.366
- AND SHE TOLD ME HER NAME WAS JOYCE,
- 00:39:45.366 --> 00:39:47.134
- AND THE MOMENT SHE SPOKE I WAS LIKE OH,
- 00:39:47.134 --> 00:39:49.503
- NOW I LOVE HER EVEN MORE BECAUSE SHE HAD THIS
- 00:39:49.503 --> 00:39:51.305
- REAL GRAVELY KIND OF TWO-PACK-A-DAY VOICE.
- 00:39:51.305 --> 00:39:53.908
- AND SHE SAID I CAN'T HELP BUT DANCE BECAUSE HE'S
- 00:39:53.908 --> 00:39:58.979
- RESCUED ME FROM SO MUCH.
- 00:39:58.979 --> 00:40:01.148
- AND THEN SHE TOLD ME HER STORY OF ABUSE,
- 00:40:01.148 --> 00:40:04.585
- BEING AN ALCOHOLIC, AND SHE SAID JESUS JUST
- 00:40:04.585 --> 00:40:08.722
- RESTORED ME FROM ALL THAT.
- 00:40:08.722 --> 00:40:11.392
- WELL WE KEPT TALKING, I WAS LIKE THIS IS JUST
- 00:40:11.392 --> 00:40:13.461
- AMAZING, YOU KNOW HOW OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES
- 00:40:13.461 --> 00:40:15.362
- REVELATION 12 SAYS THAT'S WHAT JUST STABS THE
- 00:40:15.362 --> 00:40:18.466
- KNIFE EVEN FURTHER INTO THE LIZARD'S BREAST,
- 00:40:18.466 --> 00:40:20.701
- HE'S DEFEATED BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE
- 00:40:20.701 --> 00:40:22.770
- WORD OF OUR TESTAMENT.
- 00:40:22.770 --> 00:40:24.071
- THE MOST POWERFUL THING Y'ALL WILL DO AS A
- 00:40:24.071 --> 00:40:25.840
- RESULT OF PROPEL ISN'T TO LISTEN TO US,
- 00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:27.875
- IT'S TO TALK TO EACH OTHER AND TALK TO
- 00:40:27.875 --> 00:40:29.877
- THE WORLD AROUND YOU.
- 00:40:29.877 --> 00:40:31.245
- SO I SAID I WISH I COULD HEAR YOUR WHOLE STORY BUT
- 00:40:31.245 --> 00:40:33.514
- THE CONFERENCE IS STARTING.
- 00:40:33.514 --> 00:40:35.249
- AND I THOUGHT MAYBE I'LL GET TO TALK TO YOU
- 00:40:35.249 --> 00:40:36.817
- AFTERWARDS. WELL MAYBE FIVE MINUTES LATER,
- 00:40:36.817 --> 00:40:38.719
- THEY INTRODUCED ME.
- 00:40:38.719 --> 00:40:40.020
- BECAUSE I GOT TO TEACH THAT MORNING,
- 00:40:40.020 --> 00:40:41.522
- I WALK UP ON THE PLATFORM.
- 00:40:41.522 --> 00:40:43.023
- I DON'T LIKE BEING THIS FAR REMOVED FIRST OF ALL.
- 00:40:43.023 --> 00:40:46.126
- I JUST FEEL LIKE IT'S PROBABLY A REALLY AWKWARD
- 00:40:46.126 --> 00:40:48.162
- VANTAGE POINT FOR Y'ALL.
- 00:40:48.162 --> 00:40:49.263
- YOU DON'T NEED TO SEE ALL THIS FROM THAT ANGLE.
- 00:40:49.263 --> 00:40:51.065
- [LAUGHTER]
- 00:40:51.065 --> 00:40:52.500
- BUT I ALSO WANT TO BE CLOSER.
- 00:40:52.500 --> 00:40:54.101
- AND SO THIS PARTICULAR CHURCH HAD STEPS ON THE
- 00:40:54.101 --> 00:40:56.270
- FRONT, SO I WALKED RIGHT DOWN SO I COULD KIND OF
- 00:40:56.270 --> 00:40:58.772
- BE WITH ALL THE WOMEN, AND I WALKED DOWN AND
- 00:40:58.772 --> 00:41:00.941
- THEN REALIZED OH, MY GOODNESS, HERE'S JOYCE.
- 00:41:00.941 --> 00:41:03.410
- I'M STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF JOYCE.
- 00:41:03.410 --> 00:41:04.845
- SO USUALLY I DON'T ACCOST PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW THAT
- 00:41:04.845 --> 00:41:08.482
- WELL, BUT MY ENTHUSIASM GOT THE BETTER OF ME
- 00:41:08.482 --> 00:41:11.185
- THIS MORNING, AND I WENT Y'ALL,
- 00:41:11.185 --> 00:41:13.454
- THIS IS MY NEW FRIEND JOYCE,
- 00:41:13.454 --> 00:41:15.089
- SHE'S GOT THE MOST AMAZING VOICE,
- 00:41:15.089 --> 00:41:17.725
- SO I'M GONNA HAVE JOYCE READ THE PASSAGE WE'RE
- 00:41:17.725 --> 00:41:19.660
- GONNA FOCUS ON THIS MORNING,
- 00:41:19.660 --> 00:41:20.995
- IT'S FROM HEBREWS.
- 00:41:20.995 --> 00:41:22.162
- I ALREADY HAD MY BIBLE OPEN,
- 00:41:22.162 --> 00:41:23.697
- I KIND OF GRIN AT JOYCE, HANDED HER THE MICROPHONE
- 00:41:23.697 --> 00:41:25.633
- AND POINTED TO THE PASSAGE I HAVE HIGHLIGHTED.
- 00:41:25.633 --> 00:41:28.068
- AND SHE SEEMED A LITTLE BIT DISCOMBOBULATED BUT
- 00:41:28.068 --> 00:41:30.371
- THEN SHE GRINNED AND STARTED INTO THE PASSAGE.
- 00:41:30.371 --> 00:41:32.907
- SHE GOT THROWN BY A FEW OF THE HARD WORDS,
- 00:41:32.907 --> 00:41:35.809
- BUT THEN AFTER A MINUTE, SHE FOUND HER RHYTHM AND
- 00:41:35.809 --> 00:41:37.444
- SHE READ THE REST OF THE PASSAGE BEAUTIFULLY.
- 00:41:37.444 --> 00:41:39.680
- I SAID WASN'T THAT AWESOME.
- 00:41:39.680 --> 00:41:41.649
- WHEN SHE FINISHED, PEOPLE CLAPPED POLITELY.
- 00:41:41.649 --> 00:41:43.584
- JOYCE SAT DOWN, I WENT BACK AND DID THE REST OF
- 00:41:43.584 --> 00:41:45.352
- MY BUSINESS. WELL, WHEN THE CONFERENCE WAS OVER,
- 00:41:45.352 --> 00:41:49.690
- JOYCE CAME UP TO ME AND SHE GOES LISA,
- 00:41:49.690 --> 00:41:51.592
- I JUST HAVE TO TELL YOU HOW YOU HAVING ME READ
- 00:41:51.592 --> 00:41:55.296
- THAT PASSAGE HAS IMPACTED ME.
- 00:41:55.296 --> 00:41:57.565
- I WAS LIKE OH, JOYCE, I'M SO SORRY BECAUSE I
- 00:41:57.565 --> 00:41:59.366
- THOUGHT SHE PROBABLY HAS LIKE SOME KIND OF TRAUMA
- 00:41:59.366 --> 00:42:01.268
- ASSOCIATED WITH READING OUT LOUD AND I JUST MADE
- 00:42:01.268 --> 00:42:03.837
- IT WORSE, I'M GONNA NEED TO PRAY FOR THERAPY, SO I
- 00:42:03.837 --> 00:42:06.173
- WAS LIKE I'M SO SORRY I JUST GOT SO EXCITED WHEN
- 00:42:06.173 --> 00:42:08.976
- I LOOKED UP AND YOU WERE IN FRONT OF ME.
- 00:42:08.976 --> 00:42:10.344
- AND SHE GOES NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, SHE GOES LISA,
- 00:42:10.344 --> 00:42:12.580
- I'VE GOT TO TELL YOU THE REST OF MY STORY.
- 00:42:12.580 --> 00:42:14.415
- WHAT I DIDN'T TELL YOU LAST NIGHT IS THAT THE
- 00:42:14.415 --> 00:42:17.751
- GUY I WAS ENGAGED TO LEFT ME FOR ANOTHER YOUNGER
- 00:42:17.751 --> 00:42:20.588
- WOMAN EIGHT MONTHS AGO, AND AFTER 13 YEARS OF
- 00:42:20.588 --> 00:42:23.223
- SOBRIETY, I FELL OFF THE WAGON.
- 00:42:23.223 --> 00:42:25.526
- AND SHE SAID I GOT RIP ROARING DRUNK AND SPENT
- 00:42:25.526 --> 00:42:29.396
- AN ENTIRE WEEK JUST ABSOLUTELY WASTED.
- 00:42:29.396 --> 00:42:32.333
- AND SHE SAID I CAME BACK TO CHURCH BECAUSE I WAS
- 00:42:32.333 --> 00:42:34.735
- IN LEADERSHIP, AND I CONFESSED TO THEM THAT I
- 00:42:34.735 --> 00:42:37.471
- HAD FALLEN OFF THE WAGON, AND SHE SAID BECAUSE OF
- 00:42:37.471 --> 00:42:40.507
- ME FALLING OFF THE WAGON, AFTER 13 YEARS OF
- 00:42:40.507 --> 00:42:42.676
- SOBRIETY, THEY ASKED ME TO LEAVE THE
- 00:42:42.676 --> 00:42:44.812
- LEADERSHIP TEAM.
- 00:42:44.812 --> 00:42:46.614
- AND SHE SAID I UNDERSTAND THOSE KIND OF BOUNDARIES,
- 00:42:46.614 --> 00:42:49.717
- SHE SAID, BUT IT BROKE MY HEART.
- 00:42:49.717 --> 00:42:52.186
- AND SHE SAID IT HAPPENED IN THIS CHURCH.
- 00:42:52.186 --> 00:42:55.823
- SHE SAID THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE BEEN
- 00:42:55.823 --> 00:42:57.992
- IN THIS CHURCH IN EIGHT MONTHS.
- 00:42:57.992 --> 00:43:00.961
- SHE SAID I HAD TO LEAVE BECAUSE I WAS
- 00:43:00.961 --> 00:43:03.030
- SO DISTRACTED DURING WORSHIP,
- 00:43:03.030 --> 00:43:04.665
- I FELT LIKE EVERYBODY IN CHURCH KNEW,
- 00:43:04.665 --> 00:43:06.734
- AND I FELT LIKE EVERY TIME I WALKED IN THE
- 00:43:06.734 --> 00:43:08.402
- CHURCH, I WAS WEARING A SCARLET LETTER "A" FOR
- 00:43:08.402 --> 00:43:10.304
- ALCOHOLIC ON MY CHEST.
- 00:43:10.304 --> 00:43:12.206
- AND SHE SAID AND THERE'S NO WAY YOU COULD HAVE
- 00:43:12.206 --> 00:43:16.076
- KNOWN THAT WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL,
- 00:43:16.076 --> 00:43:18.312
- I WAS TERRIFIED TO READ OUT LOUD.
- 00:43:18.312 --> 00:43:21.048
- SHE SAID HER MOTHER DIDN'T SEND HER TO
- 00:43:21.048 --> 00:43:23.150
- KINDERGARTEN OR SCHOOL UNTIL THE FIRST GRADE.
- 00:43:23.150 --> 00:43:26.453
- SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHO HER DADDY WAS.
- 00:43:26.453 --> 00:43:28.689
- SO A NAIVE TEACHER, THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL IN
- 00:43:28.689 --> 00:43:32.092
- THE FIRST GRADE ASKED JOYCE TO STAND UP AND
- 00:43:32.092 --> 00:43:34.561
- READ, AND JOYCE SAID I HAD NEVER READ,
- 00:43:34.561 --> 00:43:36.997
- I DIDN'T KNOW THE ALPHABET.
- 00:43:36.997 --> 00:43:39.199
- AND SHE SAID I STOOD UP AND THE LETTERS ON THE
- 00:43:39.199 --> 00:43:42.302
- PAGE JUST LOOKED LIKE HIEROGLYPHICS.
- 00:43:42.302 --> 00:43:44.705
- AND SHE SAID THE ONLY THING I KNEW TO DO WAS
- 00:43:44.705 --> 00:43:46.306
- JUST RECITE SOMETHING I'D HEARD ON TELEVISION AND
- 00:43:46.306 --> 00:43:49.143
- HOPE THAT WHAT I SAID OUT LOUD MATCHED
- 00:43:49.143 --> 00:43:51.512
- WHAT WAS IN THE BOOK.
- 00:43:51.512 --> 00:43:53.280
- AND SHE SAID AS SOON AS I STARTED RECITING
- 00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:55.616
- SOMETHING I'D HEARD ON TELEVISION,
- 00:43:55.616 --> 00:43:57.284
- ALL THE KIDS IN CLASS BEGAN TO LAUGH.
- 00:43:57.284 --> 00:43:59.720
- AND SHE SAID THEY STARTED CALLING ME STUPID THE
- 00:43:59.720 --> 00:44:01.989
- FIRST DAY OF FIRST GRADE AND THAT STUCK UNTIL
- 00:44:01.989 --> 00:44:04.558
- I QUIT HIGH SCHOOL.
- 00:44:04.558 --> 00:44:06.360
- SHE SAID I HAVE PROMISED MYSELF I WOULD NEVER EVER
- 00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:09.263
- AGAIN PUT MYSELF IN THE POSITION WHERE
- 00:44:09.263 --> 00:44:11.432
- I HAD TO READ OUT LOUD.
- 00:44:11.432 --> 00:44:14.635
- AND I SAID JOYCE, I AM SO SORRY.
- 00:44:14.635 --> 00:44:17.504
- AND SHE GOES OH, NO, OH, NO.
- 00:44:17.504 --> 00:44:20.274
- SHE GOES LISA, THIS PLACE THAT HELD SO MUCH
- 00:44:20.274 --> 00:44:23.410
- DISHONOR FOR ME BECAME A PLACE OF HONOR BECAUSE
- 00:44:23.410 --> 00:44:27.081
- OUT OF ALL THESE PEOPLE, ALL THESE RECOVERING
- 00:44:27.081 --> 00:44:30.684
- ADDICTS, YOU PICKED ME.
- 00:44:30.684 --> 00:44:34.488
- AND SHE GOES I KNOW I DIDN'T READ EVERY WORD
- 00:44:34.488 --> 00:44:36.957
- PERFECTLY, BUT I THINK I DID A PRETTY GOOD JOB.
- 00:44:36.957 --> 00:44:39.359
- I SAID YOU DID A GREAT JOB JOYCE.
- 00:44:39.359 --> 00:44:41.695
- AND SHE GOES I JUST FELT LIKE THE WHOLE TIME I WAS
- 00:44:41.695 --> 00:44:44.031
- READING, GOD WAS SAYING THAT'S MY GIRL!
- 00:44:44.031 --> 00:44:48.302
- THAT'S MY GIRL!

- [APPLAUSE] THAT'S MY GIRL.
- 00:44:50.037 --> 00:44:52.573
- - LISA HARPER'S WORD THIS MORNING WAS INCREDIBLE.
- 00:44:52.573 --> 00:44:56.510
- IT JUST, IT SHOOK ME TO THE CORE WITH
- 00:44:56.510 --> 00:44:59.012
- JUST WHAT GOD'S SAYING.
- 00:44:59.012 --> 00:45:00.914
- AND I THINK I FEEL AS A LEADER SOMETIMES SO
- 00:45:00.914 --> 00:45:04.852
- IMPACTED OR MOVED TO PRAY OR TO SPEAK TOWARDS A
- 00:45:04.852 --> 00:45:08.756
- TOPIC OR AN ISSUE THAT'S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD.
- 00:45:08.756 --> 00:45:10.991
- A LOT OF TIMES YOU FEEL ALONE,
- 00:45:10.991 --> 00:45:12.726
- BUT IT'S INCREDIBLE WHEN I GET WITH OTHER WORLD
- 00:45:12.726 --> 00:45:15.996
- LEADERS AND INCREDIBLE TEACHERS LIKE LISA.
- 00:45:15.996 --> 00:45:19.032
- THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS SPEAKING THE SAME THING,
- 00:45:19.032 --> 00:45:21.769
- AND WE'RE ALL KIND OF TARGETING THESE DIFFERENT
- 00:45:21.769 --> 00:45:23.937

- - MY TAKEAWAY IS PUT SOMETHING IN MOTION.
- 00:45:27.674 --> 00:45:31.411
- I THINK THAT WAS LIKE THE BIGGEST THING THAT I CAN
- 00:45:31.411 --> 00:45:32.980
- RECEIVE. WHATEVER I DO, WHATEVER SEASON I'M IN,
- 00:45:32.980 --> 00:45:36.116
- JUST PUT SOMETHING IN, START SOMETHING.
- 00:45:36.116 --> 00:45:38.285
- EVEN IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, JUST START.
- 00:45:38.285 --> 00:45:40.187
- AND WHATEVER I GO FORWARD TO START WITH,
- 00:45:40.187 --> 00:45:42.890
- GOD IS GONNA USE THAT TO MOVE ME INTO THE
- 00:45:42.890 --> 00:45:45.025
- DIRECTION I'M SUPPOSED TO BE IN,
- 00:45:45.025 --> 00:45:46.193
- THEN I CAN IMPACT OTHER PEOPLE.
- 00:45:46.193 --> 00:45:47.694
- SO THAT'S I WANT TO PUT SOMETHING IN MOTION.
- 00:45:47.694 --> 00:45:49.630
- THAT'S WHAT I'M PUMPED UP FOR.

- OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE WITH MY SPIRITUAL FAMILY
- 00:45:54.568 --> 00:45:57.137
- AND FEELING LIKE RENEWED, RENEWED.
- 00:45:57.137 --> 00:46:01.074
- I AM VERY BLESSED BY THIS EXPERIENCE AND I THINK THAT
- 00:46:01.074 --> 00:46:04.211
- LIKE THE BEST PART WAS THEY SAID A FEW GOOD MEN.
- 00:46:04.211 --> 00:46:08.415
- WE DEFINITELY NEED MORE TO HEAR ABOUT A FEW GREAT
- 00:46:08.415 --> 00:46:11.618
- WOMEN, AND JESUS LOVERS AND I'M VERY GRATEFUL FOR THAT.
- 00:46:11.618 --> 00:46:15.189
- - JUST EVERYTHING THAT THE WOMEN HAVE BEEN
- 00:46:15.189 --> 00:46:16.857

- 00:46:16.857 --> 00:46:18.659
- AND I KNOW IT'S TOUCHING MY HEART,
- 00:46:18.659 --> 00:46:20.027
- BUT LIKE ALSO THE GROUP OF WOMEN THAT I CAME WITH
- 00:46:20.027 --> 00:46:22.462
- AND I KNOW IT'S LIKE ENCOURAGING AS A LOT OF
- 00:46:22.462 --> 00:46:24.865
- US ARE TEACHERS, SO SOMETIMES WE DON'T FEEL
- 00:46:24.865 --> 00:46:26.867
- GOOD ENOUGH TO BE IN THE ROLES WHERE WE'RE AT,
- 00:46:26.867 --> 00:46:29.102
- BUT I KNOW IT'S GIVING US THAT PURPOSE AND
- 00:46:29.102 --> 00:46:31.705
- REMINDING US OF THE PROMISE GOD HAS GIVEN US
- 00:46:31.705 --> 00:46:33.974
- TO JUST CONTINUE TO DO GOD'S WORK AND TO BELIEVE WHAT
- 00:46:33.974 --> 00:46:37.511
- HE SAID ABOUT US.
- 00:46:37.511 --> 00:46:39.546
- - I FEEL LIKE FOR THE PAST YEAR IT FELT LIKE A
- 00:46:39.546 --> 00:46:42.549
- LOT OF CHAINS AROUND ME, AND I FEEL LIKE JUST
- 00:46:42.549 --> 00:46:45.485

- EMPOWERED TO LIVE OUT THIS CALLING THAT GOD'S
- 00:46:49.156 --> 00:46:51.959
- CALLED ME TO, AND NOT LET ANYTHING
- 00:46:51.959 --> 00:46:54.461
- HOLD ME BACK FROM IT.
- 00:46:54.461 --> 00:46:56.230
- - WHEN I FIRST CAME HERE,
- 00:46:56.230 --> 00:46:58.031
- I WASN'T REALLY SURE WHAT TO EXPECT,
- 00:46:58.031 --> 00:47:00.133
- SO I PRAYED THAT THERE WOULD BE HUGE
- 00:47:00.133 --> 00:47:02.269
- EXPECTATIONS AND MY HEART WOULD BE COMPLETELY OPEN,
- 00:47:02.269 --> 00:47:05.339
- AND JESUS NEVER FAILS.
- 00:47:05.339 --> 00:47:08.041

- 00:47:08.041 --> 00:47:11.478
