00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:24.240
 One row.

00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:31.119
 Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a pastor in Germany

00:00:31.119 --> 00:00:37.479
 Lutheran Church in the 1920s, 30s and 40s

00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:41.700
 and as his country went through the turmoil

00:00:41.700 --> 00:00:44.039
 of the rise of National Socialism

00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.780
 Bonhoeffer grew increasingly concerned

00:00:47.780 --> 00:00:51.879
 about an issue that he saw in his own church

00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:55.280
 he saw that in the church

00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:58.960
 while his country was being swept up

00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:00.600
 in nationalistic fervor

00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:05.719
 he saw that his church had begun to love something

00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:10.540
 else more than they loved Christ

00:01:10.540 --> 00:01:15.700
 he saw a church that was pursuing comfort

00:01:15.700 --> 00:01:17.680
 and conformity

00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:22.860
 over courage and faithfulness to Jesus

00:01:22.860 --> 00:01:30.760
 he saw a church that increasingly went with the flow of the culture

00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.000
 rather than being counter-cultural

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.260
 and following in the ways of Jesus

00:01:37.260 --> 00:01:40.140
 so he wrote the book

00:01:40.140 --> 00:01:41.660
 The Cost of Discipleship

00:01:41.660 --> 00:01:43.420
 which is a great book

00:01:43.420 --> 00:01:44.280
 I recommend it

00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:46.140
 it's not all that needs to be said

00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:48.620
 but what it does say is so important to be heard

00:01:48.620 --> 00:01:50.159
 and so

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.240
 The Cost of Discipleship

00:01:53.240 --> 00:01:54.620
 calling the church

00:01:54.620 --> 00:01:57.820
 to consider whether this path that they are on

00:01:57.820 --> 00:01:59.120
 is actually the path

00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:01.719
 of following Jesus or not

00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:05.020
 and before we think

00:02:05.020 --> 00:02:06.200
 well

00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:08.539
 that was a different time

00:02:08.539 --> 00:02:09.300
 a different era

00:02:09.300 --> 00:02:10.740
 we wouldn't do that

00:02:10.740 --> 00:02:13.520
 we must stop and consider

00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:14.420
 how quickly

00:02:14.420 --> 00:02:16.260
 our hearts

00:02:16.260 --> 00:02:18.080
 are turned away from Jesus

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:20.080
 we must consider

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.600
 how often we love other things

00:02:22.600 --> 00:02:25.100
 more than following him

00:02:25.100 --> 00:02:28.560
 how often we may love comfort

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:29.700
 and conformity

00:02:29.700 --> 00:02:31.960
 over courage

00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:33.520
 and faithful loyalty

00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:37.180
 it's easy

00:02:37.180 --> 00:02:38.379
 to get caught up

00:02:38.379 --> 00:02:39.780
 in following the crowd

00:02:39.780 --> 00:02:41.939
 it's actually pretty exciting

00:02:41.939 --> 00:02:43.340
 this is why we have

00:02:43.340 --> 00:02:43.819
 believers

00:02:43.819 --> 00:02:44.919
 and eagle fans

00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:46.000
 and all sorts of

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:47.000
 crazy things

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:48.240
 that people get caught up in

00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:49.120
 because they love

00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:50.219
 being with the crowd

00:02:50.219 --> 00:02:51.420
 and being excited

00:02:51.420 --> 00:02:52.479
 and being supported

00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:53.560
 in what they do

00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:57.539
 and we live in a world

00:02:57.539 --> 00:02:59.080
 where there is

00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.000
 a contest of loyalties

00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.180
 where Christ calls us

00:03:05.180 --> 00:03:05.900
 to himself

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:08.280
 and the world calls us

00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:09.439
 to itself

00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.159
 how do we navigate this

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:15.819
 how do we think about this

00:03:15.819 --> 00:03:17.099
 how do we recognize

00:03:17.099 --> 00:03:18.020
 our own

00:03:18.020 --> 00:03:20.219
 propensities

00:03:20.219 --> 00:03:24.859
 to fall into the same things

00:03:24.859 --> 00:03:25.879
 that Dietrich Bonhoeffer

00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:26.680
 was concerned about

00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:27.659
 in his own church

00:03:27.659 --> 00:03:32.240
 this leads us to our passage

00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:32.860
 this morning

00:03:32.860 --> 00:03:34.419
 we're in the gospel of Luke

00:03:34.419 --> 00:03:36.439
 chapter 14

00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.840
 starting in verse 25

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:42.280
 and as usual

00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:43.000
 I forgot to write

00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:43.639
 the page number

00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:44.319
 anyone want to

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.579
 821

00:03:46.579 --> 00:03:47.659
 alright

00:03:47.659 --> 00:03:48.259
 821

00:03:48.259 --> 00:03:49.139
 in your pew bible

00:03:49.139 --> 00:03:51.099
 hopefully we'll get you

00:03:51.099 --> 00:03:52.699
 to Luke

00:03:52.699 --> 00:03:54.219
 chapter 14

00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:55.560
 verse 25

00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:56.699
 if you're visiting this morning

00:03:56.699 --> 00:03:58.099
 we are continuing

00:03:58.099 --> 00:04:00.000
 a sermon series

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:01.240
 in the gospel of Luke

00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:02.960
 this section runs

00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:03.680
 from Luke 9

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:04.979
 to Luke 19

00:04:04.979 --> 00:04:06.039
 and this section

00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:07.359
 is dominated by Jesus

00:04:07.359 --> 00:04:08.519
 at the end of Luke 9

00:04:08.519 --> 00:04:09.659
 turning his face

00:04:09.659 --> 00:04:11.259
 towards Jerusalem

00:04:11.259 --> 00:04:12.879
 turning his face

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:13.699
 towards

00:04:13.699 --> 00:04:14.419
 ultimately

00:04:14.419 --> 00:04:15.560
 the cross

00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:16.259
 and his death

00:04:16.259 --> 00:04:17.120
 and resurrection

00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:19.240
 and facing

00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:19.860
 and walking

00:04:19.860 --> 00:04:20.620
 towards

00:04:20.620 --> 00:04:22.000
 the greatest suffering

00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:23.139
 that he would embrace

00:04:23.139 --> 00:04:25.259
 and as he's doing that

00:04:25.259 --> 00:04:26.139
 part of what we've seen

00:04:26.139 --> 00:04:26.599
 is that

00:04:26.599 --> 00:04:28.759
 though that was his purpose

00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:30.099
 he was also collecting

00:04:30.099 --> 00:04:31.379
 a great crowd

00:04:31.379 --> 00:04:33.480
 there were many people

00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:34.699
 who were following him

00:04:34.699 --> 00:04:35.420
 some

00:04:35.420 --> 00:04:37.860
 amazed by his power

00:04:37.860 --> 00:04:39.219
 to heal diseases

00:04:39.219 --> 00:04:40.379
 some

00:04:40.379 --> 00:04:41.159
 hungry

00:04:41.159 --> 00:04:41.819
 literally

00:04:41.819 --> 00:04:42.519
 for food

00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:43.519
 that he was producing

00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:45.100
 for those who followed him

00:04:45.100 --> 00:04:46.199
 in miraculous ways

00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:46.860
 at times

00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:47.759
 some

00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.420
 eager to see him

00:04:49.420 --> 00:04:50.060
 rise up

00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:50.779
 and lead

00:04:50.779 --> 00:04:52.480
 the nation of Israel

00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:53.800
 in rebellion

00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:54.759
 against the Roman

00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:55.699
 control

00:04:55.699 --> 00:04:56.480
 over them

00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:59.140
 but many of them

00:04:59.140 --> 00:04:59.759
 this crowd

00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:00.540
 was caught up

00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:00.740
 in

00:05:00.740 --> 00:05:01.920
 in this sort of

00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:03.300
 crowd mentality

00:05:03.300 --> 00:05:04.800
 and Jesus

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:05.580
 has words

00:05:05.580 --> 00:05:06.240
 for them

00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:07.280
 and for us

00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:08.140
 this morning

00:05:08.140 --> 00:05:09.600
 and so this is

00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:10.340
 where we come to

00:05:10.340 --> 00:05:12.200
 in Luke chapter 14

00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:13.740
 starting in verse 25

00:05:13.740 --> 00:05:15.460
 let's read this

00:05:15.460 --> 00:05:16.220
 together

00:05:16.220 --> 00:05:18.480
 now

00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:19.460
 great crowds

00:05:19.460 --> 00:05:20.360
 accompanied him

00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:21.319
 that is Jesus

00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:22.620
 and he turned

00:05:22.620 --> 00:05:23.819
 and said to them

00:05:23.819 --> 00:05:25.020
 if anyone

00:05:25.020 --> 00:05:26.120
 comes to me

00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:27.800
 and does not hate

00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:28.740
 his own father

00:05:28.740 --> 00:05:29.300
 and mother

00:05:29.300 --> 00:05:29.800
 and wife

00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:30.300
 and children

00:05:30.300 --> 00:05:30.819
 and brothers

00:05:30.819 --> 00:05:31.540
 and sisters

00:05:31.540 --> 00:05:32.620
 yes and even

00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:33.600
 his own life

00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:35.040
 he cannot

00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:35.939
 be

00:05:35.939 --> 00:05:36.879
 my disciple

00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.600
 whoever does not

00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:39.840
 bear his own cross

00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:41.040
 and come after me

00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:41.939
 cannot

00:05:41.939 --> 00:05:42.680
 be

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:43.939
 my disciple

00:05:43.939 --> 00:05:46.220
 for which of you

00:05:46.220 --> 00:05:47.560
 desiring to build

00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:48.040
 a tower

00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:49.100
 does not first

00:05:49.100 --> 00:05:49.660
 sit down

00:05:49.660 --> 00:05:50.780
 and count the cost

00:05:50.780 --> 00:05:51.920
 whether he has

00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.060
 enough to complete it

00:05:53.060 --> 00:05:54.019
 otherwise

00:05:54.019 --> 00:05:55.040
 when he has laid

00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:55.660
 a foundation

00:05:55.660 --> 00:05:56.720
 and is not able

00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:57.240
 to finish

00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:58.280
 all who see it

00:05:58.280 --> 00:05:59.400
 begin to mock him

00:05:59.400 --> 00:06:00.120
 saying

00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:01.180
 this man

00:06:01.180 --> 00:06:02.000
 began to build

00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:02.800
 and was not able

00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:03.280
 to finish

00:06:03.280 --> 00:06:06.080
 or what king

00:06:06.080 --> 00:06:07.360
 going out to encounter

00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:08.440
 another king in war

00:06:08.440 --> 00:06:10.080
 will not sit down

00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:10.640
 first

00:06:10.640 --> 00:06:11.420
 and deliberate

00:06:11.420 --> 00:06:12.340
 deliberate

00:06:12.340 --> 00:06:13.900
 whether he is able

00:06:13.900 --> 00:06:15.060
 with 10,000

00:06:15.060 --> 00:06:16.200
 to meet him

00:06:16.200 --> 00:06:17.180
 who comes against him

00:06:17.180 --> 00:06:18.080
 with 20,000

00:06:18.080 --> 00:06:19.879
 and if not

00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:20.840
 while the other

00:06:20.840 --> 00:06:22.500
 is yet a great way off

00:06:22.500 --> 00:06:23.980
 he sends a delegation

00:06:23.980 --> 00:06:25.360
 and asks for terms

00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:26.040
 of peace

00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:28.139
 so therefore

00:06:28.139 --> 00:06:29.639
 anyone of you

00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:30.319
 who does not

00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:30.800
 renounce

00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.060
 all that he has

00:06:32.060 --> 00:06:33.160
 cannot

00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:33.959
 be

00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:35.199
 my disciple

00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:37.360
 salt is good

00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:38.339
 but if salt

00:06:38.339 --> 00:06:39.600
 has lost its taste

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:41.120
 how shall saltiness

00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:41.980
 be restored

00:06:41.980 --> 00:06:44.120
 it is no use

00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:45.860
 either for the soil

00:06:45.860 --> 00:06:47.180
 or for the manure pile

00:06:47.180 --> 00:06:48.560
 it is thrown

00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:49.240
 away

00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:51.660
 he who has ears

00:06:51.660 --> 00:06:53.460
 let him hear

00:06:53.460 --> 00:06:55.860
 will you pray with me

00:06:55.860 --> 00:07:01.280
 Lord as we look

00:07:01.280 --> 00:07:01.879
 at this text

00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:02.560
 this morning

00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:04.840
 we pray

00:07:04.840 --> 00:07:05.860
 that you would

00:07:05.860 --> 00:07:06.699
 give us ears

00:07:06.699 --> 00:07:07.560
 to hear

00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:09.519
 that by your

00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:10.319
 Holy Spirit

00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:11.180
 you would

00:07:11.180 --> 00:07:12.379
 remove the

00:07:12.379 --> 00:07:12.980
 distractions

00:07:12.980 --> 00:07:13.900
 that are flitting

00:07:13.900 --> 00:07:14.740
 through our mind

00:07:14.740 --> 00:07:15.400
 right now

00:07:15.400 --> 00:07:16.819
 that you would

00:07:16.819 --> 00:07:17.860
 take the burdens

00:07:17.860 --> 00:07:18.900
 and the anxieties

00:07:18.899 --> 00:07:19.839
 that weigh us

00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:20.379
 down

00:07:20.379 --> 00:07:22.399
 Lord that you

00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:22.759
 would

00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:25.579
 keep us awake

00:07:25.579 --> 00:07:26.659
 when our bodies

00:07:26.659 --> 00:07:27.199
 are weary

00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:28.079
 and tired

00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.519
 Lord that you

00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:31.299
 would help us

00:07:31.299 --> 00:07:32.259
 to have ears

00:07:32.259 --> 00:07:32.939
 to hear

00:07:32.939 --> 00:07:34.779
 not only to hear

00:07:34.779 --> 00:07:35.519
 your word

00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:36.500
 and your call

00:07:36.500 --> 00:07:37.839
 upon our lives

00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:39.299
 but that we

00:07:39.299 --> 00:07:40.219
 would have hearts

00:07:40.219 --> 00:07:41.279
 that are ready

00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:41.659
 to

00:07:41.659 --> 00:07:43.659
 be not only

00:07:43.659 --> 00:07:44.139
 hearers

00:07:44.139 --> 00:07:45.099
 but doers also

00:07:45.099 --> 00:07:46.279
 that we would

00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:46.899
 respond

00:07:46.899 --> 00:07:47.579
 respond to your

00:07:47.579 --> 00:07:47.959
 call

00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:49.019
 this morning

00:07:49.019 --> 00:07:50.199
 by your

00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:50.599
 spirit

00:07:50.599 --> 00:07:52.219
 Lord I ask

00:07:52.219 --> 00:07:52.879
 for your help

00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:53.699
 this morning

00:07:53.699 --> 00:07:54.279
 that you would

00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:54.979
 be with me

00:07:54.979 --> 00:07:56.359
 Lord and that

00:07:56.359 --> 00:07:56.719
 you would be

00:07:56.719 --> 00:07:57.279
 with us

00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:57.759
 and that your

00:07:57.759 --> 00:07:58.279
 word would

00:07:58.279 --> 00:07:58.979
 speak to us

00:07:58.979 --> 00:07:59.560
 this morning

00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:00.739
 and we pray

00:08:00.739 --> 00:08:01.419
 this in Jesus

00:08:01.419 --> 00:08:01.799
 name

00:08:01.799 --> 00:08:02.939
 amen

00:08:02.939 --> 00:08:03.079
 amen

00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:06.319
 as we

00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:07.759
 look at this

00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:08.819
 excuse me

00:08:08.819 --> 00:08:12.399
 as we look

00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:12.959
 at this text

00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:13.579
 this morning

00:08:13.579 --> 00:08:15.319
 Jesus has a

00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:16.079
 very simple

00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:16.879
 and striking

00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:18.160
 message for us

00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:20.220
 what he says

00:08:20.220 --> 00:08:20.659
 is

00:08:20.659 --> 00:08:21.259
 half-hearted

00:08:21.259 --> 00:08:21.819
 followers

00:08:21.819 --> 00:08:22.920
 are not

00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:24.040
 really followers

00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:24.879
 at all

00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.319
 half-hearted

00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:28.879
 followers

00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:29.079
 followers

00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:30.360
 of Jesus

00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:31.120
 are not

00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:31.600
 really

00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:32.179
 followers

00:08:32.179 --> 00:08:32.840
 of Jesus

00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:33.659
 at all

00:08:33.659 --> 00:08:36.080
 as he

00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:36.539
 unpacks

00:08:36.539 --> 00:08:36.779
 this

00:08:36.779 --> 00:08:37.200
 he gives

00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:37.539
 us a

00:08:37.539 --> 00:08:37.860
 warning

00:08:37.860 --> 00:08:39.039
 he gives

00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:39.460
 us an

00:08:39.460 --> 00:08:40.220
 instruction

00:08:40.220 --> 00:08:41.399
 and he

00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:41.919
 gives us

00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:42.720
 a call

00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.399
 so we're

00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:44.580
 going to

00:08:44.580 --> 00:08:44.939
 look through

00:08:44.939 --> 00:08:45.220
 that

00:08:45.220 --> 00:08:45.500
 Jesus

00:08:45.500 --> 00:08:46.039
 warning

00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:46.659
 Jesus

00:08:46.659 --> 00:08:47.320
 instruction

00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:48.360
 and Jesus

00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:49.059
 call

00:08:49.059 --> 00:08:50.519
 as we

00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:51.240
 understand

00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:51.740
 this

00:08:51.740 --> 00:08:52.320
 very

00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:53.639
 sometimes

00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:54.240
 shocking

00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:54.860
 message

00:08:54.860 --> 00:08:55.840
 that

00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:56.519
 half-hearted

00:08:56.519 --> 00:08:57.059
 follower

00:08:57.059 --> 00:08:58.299
 is not

00:08:58.299 --> 00:08:59.199
 really

00:08:59.199 --> 00:08:59.899
 a follower

00:08:59.899 --> 00:09:00.599
 at all

00:09:00.599 --> 00:09:02.359
 so first

00:09:02.359 --> 00:09:02.819
 let's look

00:09:02.819 --> 00:09:03.279
 at Jesus

00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:03.839
 warning

00:09:03.839 --> 00:09:05.039
 you heard

00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:05.519
 it as I

00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:05.859
 read through

00:09:05.859 --> 00:09:06.359
 the text

00:09:06.359 --> 00:09:06.719
 there was

00:09:06.719 --> 00:09:07.299
 a refrain

00:09:07.299 --> 00:09:07.719
 was there

00:09:07.719 --> 00:09:08.039
 not

00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:08.659
 in verse

00:09:08.659 --> 00:09:09.359
 26

00:09:09.359 --> 00:09:09.839
 and in

00:09:09.839 --> 00:09:10.000
 verse

00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:10.659
 27

00:09:10.659 --> 00:09:11.179
 and again

00:09:11.179 --> 00:09:11.679
 in verse

00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:12.319
 33

00:09:12.319 --> 00:09:13.659
 he says

00:09:13.659 --> 00:09:14.379
 you cannot

00:09:14.379 --> 00:09:15.139
 be

00:09:15.139 --> 00:09:16.059
 my

00:09:16.059 --> 00:09:16.799
 disciple

00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:18.279
 and this

00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:18.739
 is such

00:09:18.739 --> 00:09:19.359
 a striking

00:09:19.359 --> 00:09:19.799
 thing

00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:20.279
 isn't it

00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:20.939
 because we

00:09:20.939 --> 00:09:21.359
 think

00:09:21.359 --> 00:09:22.059
 Jesus

00:09:22.059 --> 00:09:22.919
 is love

00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:23.519
 and grace

00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:24.000
 to us

00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:24.279
 and he

00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:24.679
 has come

00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:25.039
 to us

00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:25.259
 and he

00:09:25.259 --> 00:09:25.759
 has invited

00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:26.039
 us

00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:26.879
 to himself

00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:27.279
 and how

00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:27.659
 could it

00:09:27.659 --> 00:09:28.299
 be possible

00:09:28.299 --> 00:09:29.120
 that one

00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:29.620
 who seems

00:09:29.620 --> 00:09:30.259
 so warm

00:09:30.259 --> 00:09:30.620
 and some

00:09:30.620 --> 00:09:30.899
 who has

00:09:30.899 --> 00:09:31.419
 been so

00:09:31.419 --> 00:09:31.799
 committed

00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:32.720
 to pursuing

00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:33.039
 us

00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:33.439
 and loving

00:09:33.439 --> 00:09:33.700
 us

00:09:33.700 --> 00:09:34.100
 and bringing

00:09:34.100 --> 00:09:34.419
 us

00:09:34.419 --> 00:09:35.220
 to himself

00:09:35.220 --> 00:09:37.159
 would have

00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:37.820
 words like

00:09:37.820 --> 00:09:38.240
 this on

00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:38.799
 his lips

00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:41.080
 you cannot

00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:41.659
 be

00:09:41.659 --> 00:09:42.759
 my

00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:43.620
 disciple

00:09:43.620 --> 00:09:47.559
 and yet

00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:48.240
 he does

00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:50.460
 he exposes

00:09:50.460 --> 00:09:51.360
 three different

00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:52.100
 ways in

00:09:52.100 --> 00:09:53.000
 which we

00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:54.840
 turn our

00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:55.220
 hearts

00:09:55.220 --> 00:09:55.820
 away

00:09:55.820 --> 00:09:55.840
 away

00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:57.000
 from

00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:57.460
 following

00:09:57.460 --> 00:09:57.899
 Jesus

00:09:57.899 --> 00:09:59.060
 with all

00:09:59.060 --> 00:09:59.399
 that we

00:09:59.399 --> 00:09:59.840
 have

00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:00.920
 in verse

00:10:00.920 --> 00:10:01.639
 26

00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:02.540
 he talks

00:10:02.540 --> 00:10:02.980
 about our

00:10:02.980 --> 00:10:03.540
 relationships

00:10:03.540 --> 00:10:04.180
 look with me

00:10:04.180 --> 00:10:04.519
 again

00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:05.300
 if anyone

00:10:05.300 --> 00:10:06.040
 comes to me

00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:06.580
 and does not

00:10:06.580 --> 00:10:07.300
 hate his own

00:10:07.300 --> 00:10:07.879
 father and

00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:08.340
 mother and

00:10:08.340 --> 00:10:08.800
 wife and

00:10:08.800 --> 00:10:09.279
 children and

00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:09.800
 brothers and

00:10:09.800 --> 00:10:10.080
 sisters

00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:10.580
 yes and

00:10:10.580 --> 00:10:10.960
 even his

00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.120
 own life

00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:14.240
 he cannot

00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:15.019
 be his

00:10:15.019 --> 00:10:15.480
 disciple

00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.060
 now listen

00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:24.960
 man who

00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:25.480
 said love

00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:26.060
 your enemies

00:10:26.060 --> 00:10:26.820

00:10:28.180 --> 00:10:28.600
 father and

00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:28.800
 mother

00:10:28.800 --> 00:10:29.900
 Jesus is not

00:10:29.900 --> 00:10:30.600
 talking about

00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:31.600
 us and if

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:31.840
 you're a

00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:32.440
 teenager here

00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:32.620
 and you're

00:10:32.620 --> 00:10:33.000
 like yeah I

00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:33.340
 really do

00:10:33.340 --> 00:10:33.640
 hate my

00:10:33.640 --> 00:10:34.080
 parents and

00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:34.580
 Jesus says

00:10:34.580 --> 00:10:35.100
 it's okay

00:10:35.100 --> 00:10:35.900
 that's not

00:10:35.900 --> 00:10:36.180
 what he

00:10:36.180 --> 00:10:36.760
 means

00:10:36.760 --> 00:10:40.420
 what he does

00:10:40.420 --> 00:10:41.040
 mean though

00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:41.960
 is that this

00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:42.840
 is a relative

00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:44.340
 term

00:10:44.340 --> 00:10:46.320
 Jesus is

00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:46.820
 saying I

00:10:46.820 --> 00:10:47.759
 want your

00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:48.519
 heart to be

00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:49.420
 so fully

00:10:49.420 --> 00:10:50.780
 mine that

00:10:50.780 --> 00:10:51.800
 it were as

00:10:51.800 --> 00:10:52.600
 if in

00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:53.580
 relationship to

00:10:53.580 --> 00:10:54.320
 your love for

00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:55.580
 me you hated

00:10:55.580 --> 00:10:57.720
 even those who

00:10:57.720 --> 00:10:58.600
 are most dear

00:10:58.600 --> 00:10:59.440
 and most close

00:10:59.440 --> 00:10:59.920
 to you

00:10:59.920 --> 00:11:01.600
 Jesus is

00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:02.120
 claiming a

00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:03.620
 primary loyalty

00:11:03.620 --> 00:11:04.500
 a primary

00:11:04.500 --> 00:11:05.220
 identity

00:11:05.220 --> 00:11:08.259
 saying even

00:11:08.259 --> 00:11:08.860
 the most

00:11:08.860 --> 00:11:10.240
 most intimate

00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:11.600
 of our human

00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:12.300
 connections

00:11:12.300 --> 00:11:13.259
 mother

 father

00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:15.040
 husband

00:11:15.040 --> 00:11:15.740
 wife

00:11:15.740 --> 00:11:16.500
 brother

00:11:16.500 --> 00:11:17.220
 sister

00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:19.480
 even

00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:20.580
 the most

00:11:20.580 --> 00:11:21.139
 intimate one

00:11:21.139 --> 00:11:21.520
 of our

00:11:21.520 --> 00:11:22.080
 very own

00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:22.660
 lives

00:11:22.660 --> 00:11:24.460
 he says

00:11:24.460 --> 00:11:25.020
 this is

00:11:25.020 --> 00:11:26.160
 these are to

00:11:26.160 --> 00:11:27.300
 be hated

00:11:27.300 --> 00:11:29.320
 in relationship

00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:30.420
 to that is

00:11:30.420 --> 00:11:30.920
 there to have

00:11:30.920 --> 00:11:31.980
 no value

00:11:31.980 --> 00:11:33.040
 in relationship

00:11:33.040 --> 00:11:34.000
 to the value

00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.020
 and the love

00:11:35.020 --> 00:11:35.840
 and the devotion

00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:37.180
 that you give

00:11:37.180 --> 00:11:38.100
 to me

00:11:38.100 --> 00:11:42.220
 it is both

00:11:42.220 --> 00:11:42.900
 external

00:11:42.899 --> 00:11:44.259
 the network

00:11:44.259 --> 00:11:45.019
 of relationships

00:11:45.019 --> 00:11:45.620
 that we live

00:11:45.620 --> 00:11:45.980
 in and

00:11:45.980 --> 00:11:46.480
 internal

00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:46.840
 in our

00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:47.199
 hearts

00:11:47.199 --> 00:11:47.840
 we are to

00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:48.259
 die to

00:11:48.259 --> 00:11:48.959
 our self

00:11:48.959 --> 00:11:50.039
 our self

00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:50.419
 will

00:11:50.419 --> 00:11:51.079
 our selfish

00:11:51.079 --> 00:11:51.639
 pleasures

00:11:51.639 --> 00:11:52.819
 our self

00:11:52.819 --> 00:11:53.500
 determination

00:11:53.500 --> 00:11:55.179
 our self

00:11:55.179 --> 00:11:56.279
 salvation

00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:57.379
 strategies

00:11:57.379 --> 00:11:58.579
 whereby we

00:11:58.579 --> 00:11:59.019
 seek to

00:11:59.019 --> 00:12:00.120
 justify ourselves

00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:00.679
 through our

00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:01.039
 work

00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:01.939
 through our

00:12:01.939 --> 00:12:02.419
 play

00:12:02.419 --> 00:12:03.439
 through our

00:12:03.439 --> 00:12:03.959
 pleasure

00:12:03.959 --> 00:12:05.340
 through everything

00:12:05.340 --> 00:12:06.060
 we do

00:12:06.060 --> 00:12:08.160
 and Jesus

00:12:08.160 --> 00:12:08.600
 says you

00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:09.240
 must hate

00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:10.040
 these things

00:12:10.040 --> 00:12:12.420
 in relationship

00:12:12.420 --> 00:12:13.139
 to me

00:12:13.139 --> 00:12:15.580
 or again

00:12:15.580 --> 00:12:17.019
 to restate it

00:12:17.019 --> 00:12:18.040
 you must love

00:12:18.040 --> 00:12:19.120
 me so much

00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:20.660
 that it is as if

00:12:20.660 --> 00:12:21.180
 you hated

00:12:21.180 --> 00:12:22.320
 these things

00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:27.320
 when I was

00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:28.139
 overseas I had

00:12:28.139 --> 00:12:28.899
 the privilege of

00:12:28.899 --> 00:12:29.840
 knowing a

00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:31.379
 Chinese co-worker

00:12:31.379 --> 00:12:33.879
 who worked

00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:34.379
 in campus

00:12:34.379 --> 00:12:34.879
 ministry

00:12:34.879 --> 00:12:36.939
 when he

00:12:36.939 --> 00:12:37.399
 came to

00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:38.360
 faith in

00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:39.000
 college

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:40.740
 he came

00:12:40.740 --> 00:12:41.159
 through the

00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:41.620
 witness of

00:12:41.620 --> 00:12:42.200
 some friends

00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:43.700
 and he

00:12:43.700 --> 00:12:44.200
 went home

00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:45.179
 and told his

00:12:45.179 --> 00:12:45.879
 parents about

00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:46.279
 his new

00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:46.960
 found faith

00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.480
 his parents

00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:51.360
 kicked him

00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:51.679
 out of the

00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:52.059
 house

00:12:52.059 --> 00:12:54.620
 said don't

00:12:54.620 --> 00:12:55.100
 come back

00:12:55.100 --> 00:12:55.480
 until you

00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:55.960
 change your

00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:56.340
 mind

00:12:56.340 --> 00:12:57.059
 you have

00:12:57.059 --> 00:12:57.240
 brought

00:12:57.240 --> 00:12:57.940
 dishonor on

00:12:57.940 --> 00:12:58.519
 this family

00:12:58.519 --> 00:12:59.120
 you have

00:12:59.120 --> 00:12:59.319
 brought

00:12:59.319 --> 00:12:59.960
 dishonor

00:12:59.960 --> 00:13:00.960
 on our

00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:01.379
 culture

00:13:01.379 --> 00:13:02.279
 by turning

00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:02.799
 to this

00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:03.279
 outside

00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:03.759
 thing

00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.399
 I knew

00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:07.740
 him

00:13:07.740 --> 00:13:09.220
 quite a

00:13:09.220 --> 00:13:09.579
 number of

00:13:09.579 --> 00:13:09.819
 years

00:13:09.819 --> 00:13:10.539
 after this

00:13:10.539 --> 00:13:10.879
 event

00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:12.199
 he had

00:13:12.199 --> 00:13:12.699
 still only

00:13:12.699 --> 00:13:13.120
 been back

00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:13.460
 to his

00:13:13.460 --> 00:13:13.759
 hometown

00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:14.360
 once

00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:15.419
 he did

00:13:15.419 --> 00:13:15.919
 not stay

00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:16.319
 with his

00:13:16.319 --> 00:13:16.659
 family

00:13:16.659 --> 00:13:17.079
 he was

00:13:17.079 --> 00:13:17.600
 not welcome

00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:17.960
 there

00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:21.319
 the last

00:13:21.319 --> 00:13:21.559
 I had

00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:21.860
 heard from

00:13:21.860 --> 00:13:24.139
 him

00:13:24.139 --> 00:13:24.939
 about his

00:13:24.939 --> 00:13:25.319
 relationship

00:13:25.319 --> 00:13:25.679
 with his

00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:25.919
 family

00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:26.220
 he had

00:13:26.220 --> 00:13:26.600
 talked to

00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:27.019
 his father

00:13:27.019 --> 00:13:27.559
 once on

00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:27.980
 the phone

00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:29.279
 and it

00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:29.539
 did not

00:13:29.539 --> 00:13:30.000
 go well

00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:34.659
 my friend

00:13:34.659 --> 00:13:36.740
 counted the

00:13:36.740 --> 00:13:37.259
 cost

00:13:37.259 --> 00:13:38.399
 of knowing

00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:38.940
 Jesus

00:13:38.940 --> 00:13:40.620
 many times

00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:41.220
 during those

00:13:41.220 --> 00:13:41.759
 years after

00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:42.340
 his initial

00:13:42.340 --> 00:13:43.019
 profession of

00:13:43.019 --> 00:13:43.320
 faith

00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:44.259
 he could have

00:13:44.259 --> 00:13:45.080
 said this

00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:45.600
 isn't worth

00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:45.820
 it

00:13:45.820 --> 00:13:46.840
 I love my

00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:47.440
 parents too

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:47.820
 much

00:13:47.820 --> 00:13:49.200
 I've lost

00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:49.879
 my family

00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:50.820
 and I don't

00:13:50.820 --> 00:13:51.300
 know what to

00:13:51.300 --> 00:13:51.580
 do

00:13:51.580 --> 00:13:52.680
 I'm going

00:13:52.680 --> 00:13:53.080
 back

00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:54.519
 he could have

00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:55.360
 gone back

00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:55.740
 and said

00:13:55.740 --> 00:13:57.139
 okay

00:13:57.139 --> 00:13:58.259
 it's not

00:13:58.259 --> 00:13:58.879
 important to

00:13:58.879 --> 00:13:59.080
 me

00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:00.319
 not as

00:14:00.319 --> 00:14:00.679
 much as

00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:01.080
 you are

00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:02.699
 but he

00:14:02.699 --> 00:14:03.220
 didn't

00:14:03.220 --> 00:14:06.939
 we don't

00:14:06.939 --> 00:14:07.360
 tend to

00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:07.879
 face that

00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:08.259
 in our

00:14:08.259 --> 00:14:08.600
 culture

00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:09.159
 in the

00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:09.720
 same way

00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:10.659
 and yet

00:14:10.659 --> 00:14:11.240
 maybe more

00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:11.679
 subtly

00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:12.939
 you feel

00:14:12.939 --> 00:14:13.500
 the pressure

00:14:13.500 --> 00:14:15.460
 to be

00:14:15.460 --> 00:14:15.939
 less than

00:14:15.939 --> 00:14:16.559
 wholehearted

00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:16.939
 in your

00:14:16.939 --> 00:14:17.580
 following of

00:14:17.580 --> 00:14:17.840
 Jesus

00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:18.279
 and in

00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:18.419
 your

00:14:18.419 --> 00:14:18.779
 loyalty

00:14:18.779 --> 00:14:19.399
 to him

00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:21.360
 maybe you

00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:22.319
 feel like

00:14:22.319 --> 00:14:22.700
 you'd like

00:14:22.700 --> 00:14:23.059
 to have

00:14:23.059 --> 00:14:23.620
 one foot

00:14:23.620 --> 00:14:24.279
 in Jesus

00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:24.639
 camp

00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:25.019
 and one

00:14:25.019 --> 00:14:25.299
 foot

00:14:25.299 --> 00:14:26.080
 that's

00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:26.460
 kind of

00:14:26.460 --> 00:14:26.879
 skating

00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:27.259
 along

00:14:27.259 --> 00:14:27.500
 doing

00:14:27.500 --> 00:14:27.939
 okay

00:14:27.939 --> 00:14:28.559
 maybe

00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:28.840
 that's

00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:29.080
 in your

00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.399
 career

00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:29.840
 path

00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:30.139
 and with

00:14:30.139 --> 00:14:30.279
 your

00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:30.799
 colleagues

00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:31.399
 maybe

00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:31.840
 that is

00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:32.240
 with your

00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:32.620
 family

00:14:32.620 --> 00:14:33.240
 at home

00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:35.139
 maybe it's

00:14:35.139 --> 00:14:35.460
 with your

00:14:35.460 --> 00:14:36.139
 friends and

00:14:36.139 --> 00:14:36.759
 peers at

00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:37.299
 school

00:14:37.299 --> 00:14:43.179
 Jesus

00:14:43.179 --> 00:14:43.740
 says

00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:45.000
 if you

00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:45.419
 do not

00:14:45.419 --> 00:14:45.819
 hate

00:14:45.819 --> 00:14:48.299
 your

00:14:48.299 --> 00:14:48.919
 relationships

00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:49.240
 that are

00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:49.759
 closest

00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:50.899
 in

00:14:50.899 --> 00:14:51.460
 relationship

00:14:51.460 --> 00:14:52.019
 to me

00:14:52.019 --> 00:14:52.679
 you cannot

00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:53.419
 be

00:14:53.419 --> 00:14:54.199
 my

00:14:54.199 --> 00:14:54.659
 disciple

00:14:54.659 --> 00:14:57.319
 not only

00:14:57.319 --> 00:14:57.759
 does it

00:14:57.759 --> 00:14:58.779
 Jesus

00:14:58.779 --> 00:14:59.319
 call us

00:14:59.319 --> 00:14:59.639
 this in

00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:00.159
 relationship

00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:00.960
 to our

00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:02.319
 network

00:15:02.319 --> 00:15:02.620
 of

00:15:02.620 --> 00:15:03.179
 relationships

00:15:03.179 --> 00:15:03.600
 but it

00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:03.899
 also

00:15:03.899 --> 00:15:04.639
 calls us

00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:05.079
 to our

00:15:05.079 --> 00:15:05.439
 way of

00:15:05.439 --> 00:15:05.799
 life

00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:06.860
 to thinking

00:15:06.860 --> 00:15:07.279
 about this

00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:07.579
 this is

00:15:07.579 --> 00:15:07.879
 what I

00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:08.100
 think

00:15:08.100 --> 00:15:08.519
 Jesus

00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:08.939
 is saying

00:15:08.939 --> 00:15:09.279
 in verse

00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:09.919
 27

00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:10.840
 look with

00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:10.980
 me

00:15:10.980 --> 00:15:11.279
 again

00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:11.819
 he says

00:15:11.819 --> 00:15:12.340
 whoever

00:15:12.340 --> 00:15:12.879
 does not

00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:13.379
 bear his

00:15:13.379 --> 00:15:13.559
 own

00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:14.039
 cross

00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:14.379
 and come

00:15:14.379 --> 00:15:14.899
 after me

00:15:14.899 --> 00:15:15.159
 cannot

00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:15.679
 be my

00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:16.139
 disciple

00:15:16.139 --> 00:15:17.679
 now remember

00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:17.980
 Jesus

00:15:17.980 --> 00:15:18.539
 said this

00:15:18.539 --> 00:15:19.240
 before his

00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:19.439
 own

00:15:19.439 --> 00:15:20.199
 crucifixion

00:15:20.199 --> 00:15:20.779
 although we

00:15:20.779 --> 00:15:21.319
 read it

00:15:21.319 --> 00:15:21.980
 knowing that

00:15:21.980 --> 00:15:22.360
 he was

00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:22.759
 speaking

00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:24.680
 knowing

00:15:24.680 --> 00:15:25.180
 what was

00:15:25.180 --> 00:15:25.639
 coming

00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:26.639
 and he

00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:26.840
 was

00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:27.659
 instructing

00:15:27.659 --> 00:15:27.860
 his

00:15:27.860 --> 00:15:28.279
 disciples

00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:28.659
 who would

00:15:28.659 --> 00:15:29.180
 understand

00:15:29.180 --> 00:15:29.680
 later

00:15:29.680 --> 00:15:30.500
 the fullness

00:15:30.500 --> 00:15:30.960
 of all

00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:31.240
 that he

00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:31.720
 was saying

00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:32.080
 here

00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:33.039
 but even

00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:33.379
 they

00:15:33.379 --> 00:15:33.860
 in that

00:15:33.860 --> 00:15:34.320
 moment

00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:34.840
 would have

00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:35.340
 heard

00:15:35.340 --> 00:15:36.680
 pick up

00:15:36.680 --> 00:15:37.399
 your cross

00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:38.360
 as a

00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:38.980
 terrifying

00:15:38.980 --> 00:15:40.039
 call

00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:41.340
 to pick up

00:15:41.340 --> 00:15:41.940
 your cross

00:15:41.940 --> 00:15:42.560
 is to carry

00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:43.139
 the cross

00:15:43.139 --> 00:15:43.539
 beam

00:15:43.539 --> 00:15:44.759
 upon which

00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:45.060
 you would

00:15:45.060 --> 00:15:45.740
 be crucified

00:15:45.740 --> 00:15:47.379
 through the

00:15:47.379 --> 00:15:47.860
 streets

00:15:47.860 --> 00:15:50.200
 it signified

00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:50.879
 great

00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:51.659
 physical

00:15:51.659 --> 00:15:52.339
 suffering

00:15:52.339 --> 00:15:53.539
 crucifixion

00:15:53.539 --> 00:15:55.019
 was terrifyingly

00:15:55.019 --> 00:15:55.439
 painful

00:15:55.439 --> 00:15:57.100
 but it

00:15:57.100 --> 00:15:57.799
 also was a

00:15:57.799 --> 00:15:58.199
 mark of

00:15:58.199 --> 00:15:58.719
 shame

00:15:58.719 --> 00:16:00.259
 it was not

00:16:00.259 --> 00:16:00.839
 something that

00:16:00.839 --> 00:16:01.259
 would be

00:16:01.259 --> 00:16:02.620
 done

00:16:02.620 --> 00:16:04.339
 except in

00:16:04.339 --> 00:16:04.819
 the cases

00:16:04.819 --> 00:16:05.319
 where they

00:16:05.319 --> 00:16:05.919
 wanted to

00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:06.399
 punish

00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:07.319
 publicly

00:16:07.319 --> 00:16:09.559
 make a

00:16:09.559 --> 00:16:10.120
 spectacle

00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:11.620
 of this

00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:12.699
 person who

00:16:12.699 --> 00:16:13.360
 was being

00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:14.319
 crucified

00:16:14.319 --> 00:16:15.379
 and executed

00:16:15.379 --> 00:16:21.279
 it is of

00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:22.000
 course a

00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:22.500
 picture of

00:16:22.500 --> 00:16:23.480
 heading to

00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:24.259
 death and

00:16:24.259 --> 00:16:24.820
 dying to

00:16:24.820 --> 00:16:25.200
 self

00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:26.779
 but it is a

00:16:26.779 --> 00:16:28.159
 most humiliating

00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:29.759
 a most

00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:30.399
 painful

00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:32.080
 way of

00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:32.820
 doing so

00:16:32.820 --> 00:16:34.759
 and Jesus

00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:35.460
 says

00:16:35.460 --> 00:16:37.019
 you must be

00:16:37.019 --> 00:16:37.480
 willing to

00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:38.139
 walk this

00:16:38.139 --> 00:16:38.600
 path

00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:42.960
 we have

00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:43.379
 friends

00:16:43.379 --> 00:16:44.540
 national

00:16:44.540 --> 00:16:45.220
 Christian

00:16:45.220 --> 00:16:45.580
 workers

00:16:45.580 --> 00:16:45.920
 that we

00:16:45.920 --> 00:16:46.399
 know in

00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:47.180
 Central Asia

00:16:47.180 --> 00:16:48.399
 who sent a

00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:49.040
 report last

00:16:49.040 --> 00:16:49.759
 fall about a

00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:50.139
 friend of

00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:50.519
 theirs

00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:53.000
 a young man

00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:53.300
 who was

00:16:53.300 --> 00:16:53.759
 staying at

00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:54.440
 his relative's

00:16:54.440 --> 00:16:54.840
 house

00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:56.180
 at night

00:16:56.180 --> 00:16:56.800
 three people

00:16:56.800 --> 00:16:57.279
 broke into

00:16:57.279 --> 00:16:57.779
 his house

00:16:57.779 --> 00:16:58.440
 and attacked

00:16:58.440 --> 00:16:58.740
 him

00:16:58.740 --> 00:16:59.800
 they beat

00:16:59.800 --> 00:17:00.139
 him with

00:17:00.139 --> 00:17:00.620
 sticks

00:17:00.620 --> 00:17:01.659
 kicked his

00:17:01.659 --> 00:17:01.960
 head

00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:02.519
 broke his

00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:02.860
 jaw

00:17:02.860 --> 00:17:03.420
 and injured

00:17:03.420 --> 00:17:04.180
 his eyes

00:17:04.180 --> 00:17:06.160
 they demanded

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:06.860
 that he deny

00:17:06.860 --> 00:17:07.279
 Jesus

00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:08.340
 and make a

00:17:08.340 --> 00:17:08.680
 Muslim

00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:09.340
 confession

00:17:09.340 --> 00:17:11.400
 but he did

00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:12.019
 not deny

00:17:12.019 --> 00:17:13.660
 and they left

00:17:13.660 --> 00:17:14.580
 him to die

00:17:14.580 --> 00:17:16.120
 when he was

00:17:16.120 --> 00:17:16.640
 taken to the

00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:17.080
 hospital

00:17:17.080 --> 00:17:17.820
 the doctor

00:17:17.820 --> 00:17:18.720
 said he

00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:19.140
 would not

00:17:19.140 --> 00:17:19.799
 survive

00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:21.320
 praise the

00:17:21.320 --> 00:17:21.940
 Lord he did

00:17:21.940 --> 00:17:22.480
 survive

00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:23.060
 and now

00:17:23.060 --> 00:17:23.759
 he and his

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:24.560
 family continue

00:17:24.560 --> 00:17:25.200
 to believe in

00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:25.539
 the Lord

00:17:25.539 --> 00:17:26.200
 and pray for

00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:26.740
 his complete

00:17:26.740 --> 00:17:27.220
 healing

00:17:27.220 --> 00:17:29.700
 they end

00:17:29.700 --> 00:17:30.160
 with this

00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:30.779
 please pray

00:17:30.779 --> 00:17:31.460
 for this guy

00:17:31.460 --> 00:17:31.740
 and his

00:17:31.740 --> 00:17:32.140
 family

00:17:32.140 --> 00:17:33.039
 who are being

00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:33.820
 persecuted for

00:17:33.819 --> 00:17:34.419
 their faith

00:17:34.419 --> 00:17:35.559
 by the

00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:35.960
 villagers

00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:38.179
 this man

00:17:38.179 --> 00:17:38.679
 wakes up

00:17:38.679 --> 00:17:39.700
 every morning

00:17:39.700 --> 00:17:40.599
 bearing a

00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:41.220
 cross of

00:17:41.220 --> 00:17:42.119
 physical pain

00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:44.179
 because he

00:17:44.179 --> 00:17:44.619
 would not

00:17:44.619 --> 00:17:45.480
 deny Jesus

00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:47.819
 he also

00:17:47.819 --> 00:17:48.419
 carries the

00:17:48.419 --> 00:17:48.819
 pain of

00:17:48.819 --> 00:17:49.319
 knowing that

00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:50.000
 his family

00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:50.839
 every day

00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:52.399
 is potentially

00:17:52.399 --> 00:17:53.099
 in danger

00:17:53.099 --> 00:17:54.039
 because of

00:17:54.039 --> 00:17:54.659
 their profession

00:17:54.659 --> 00:17:55.259
 of faith

00:17:55.259 --> 00:17:59.299
 Jesus says

00:17:59.299 --> 00:18:00.259
 following me

00:18:00.259 --> 00:18:00.819
 is a

00:18:00.819 --> 00:18:01.899
 disavowal

00:18:01.899 --> 00:18:02.919
 of a

00:18:02.919 --> 00:18:03.359
 commitment

00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:04.099
 to our

00:18:04.099 --> 00:18:04.559
 life of

00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:04.979
 comfort

00:18:04.979 --> 00:18:06.699
 to a

00:18:06.699 --> 00:18:07.119
 life of

00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:07.679
 ease

00:18:07.679 --> 00:18:08.939
 to a

00:18:08.939 --> 00:18:09.319
 life of

00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:09.899
 avoiding

00:18:09.899 --> 00:18:10.759
 suffering

00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:11.679
 and pain

00:18:11.679 --> 00:18:17.559
 how can

00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:17.959
 you

00:18:17.959 --> 00:18:18.799
 choose

00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:19.419
 to pursue

00:18:19.419 --> 00:18:19.959
 Jesus

00:18:19.959 --> 00:18:21.240
 in this

00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:21.619
 way

00:18:21.619 --> 00:18:23.579
 what are

00:18:23.579 --> 00:18:23.899
 the ways

00:18:23.899 --> 00:18:24.479
 that you

00:18:24.479 --> 00:18:26.279
 can step

00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:27.240
 away from

00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:28.319
 our cultural

00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:29.959
 movement

00:18:29.959 --> 00:18:30.579
 towards

00:18:30.579 --> 00:18:31.119
 everything

00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:32.019
 being safe

00:18:32.019 --> 00:18:32.659
 and everything

00:18:32.659 --> 00:18:33.079
 being

00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:33.559
 provided

00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:34.239
 and everything

00:18:34.239 --> 00:18:35.439
 being comfortable

00:18:35.439 --> 00:18:36.199
 and everything

00:18:36.199 --> 00:18:37.179
 being easy

00:18:37.179 --> 00:18:40.219
 how can you

00:18:40.219 --> 00:18:41.039
 step away from

00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:41.819
 that and pursue

00:18:41.819 --> 00:18:42.439
 Christ

00:18:42.439 --> 00:18:45.859
 now look

00:18:45.859 --> 00:18:47.639
 Jesus doesn't

00:18:47.639 --> 00:18:48.219
 call us to be

00:18:48.219 --> 00:18:48.579
 stupid

00:18:48.579 --> 00:18:50.719
 he doesn't call us

00:18:50.719 --> 00:18:51.459
 to flagellate

00:18:51.459 --> 00:18:51.939
 ourselves

00:18:51.939 --> 00:18:53.000
 to create

00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:53.719
 suffering on

00:18:53.719 --> 00:18:54.239
 our own

00:18:54.239 --> 00:18:55.219
 in order to

00:18:55.219 --> 00:18:55.979
 feel like we're

00:18:55.979 --> 00:18:57.019
 walking the walk

00:18:57.019 --> 00:18:57.659
 of Christ

00:18:57.660 --> 00:19:02.779
 but maybe

00:19:02.779 --> 00:19:03.480
 there are ways

00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:04.759
 today where you

00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:05.400
 could ask

00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:05.900
 yourself

00:19:05.900 --> 00:19:06.779
 have I been

00:19:06.779 --> 00:19:07.360
 more committed

00:19:07.360 --> 00:19:07.720
 to being

00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:08.180
 comfortable

00:19:08.180 --> 00:19:08.740
 than to

00:19:08.740 --> 00:19:09.500
 being faithful

00:19:09.500 --> 00:19:11.440
 to Jesus

00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:13.100
 are there ways

00:19:13.100 --> 00:19:13.800
 that I have been

00:19:13.800 --> 00:19:14.660
 more committed

00:19:14.660 --> 00:19:16.240
 to going with

00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:16.840
 the flow

00:19:16.840 --> 00:19:18.759
 than actually

00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:20.019
 bearing consequences

00:19:20.019 --> 00:19:20.820
 for following

00:19:20.819 --> 00:19:21.359
 Christ

00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:24.220
 in my own

00:19:24.220 --> 00:19:24.559
 personal

00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:25.059
 disciplines

00:19:25.059 --> 00:19:25.679
 in my own

00:19:25.679 --> 00:19:26.039
 personal

00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:26.599
 habits

00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:27.879
 am I

00:19:27.879 --> 00:19:28.240
 choosing

00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:29.099
 faithfulness

00:19:29.099 --> 00:19:30.200
 or am I

00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:30.519
 choosing

00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:31.079
 ease

00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:38.539
 the third

00:19:38.539 --> 00:19:38.919
 thing that

00:19:38.919 --> 00:19:39.639
 Jesus says

00:19:39.639 --> 00:19:40.539
 is in

00:19:40.539 --> 00:19:41.399
 verse 33

00:19:41.399 --> 00:19:43.159
 after he

00:19:43.159 --> 00:19:43.559
 tells the

00:19:43.559 --> 00:19:44.159
 two parables

00:19:44.159 --> 00:19:44.480
 that we'll

00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:45.000
 get to in

00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:45.500
 just a minute

00:19:45.500 --> 00:19:46.220
 he comes

00:19:46.220 --> 00:19:46.679
 back to

00:19:46.679 --> 00:19:47.419
 this refrain

00:19:47.419 --> 00:19:47.679
 again

00:19:47.679 --> 00:19:47.980
 he says

00:19:47.980 --> 00:19:48.439
 so therefore

00:19:48.439 --> 00:19:49.019
 if anyone

00:19:49.019 --> 00:19:50.000
 if any

00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:50.900
 one of you

00:19:50.900 --> 00:19:52.059
 therefore

00:19:52.059 --> 00:19:52.839
 anyone of you

00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:53.380
 who does not

00:19:53.380 --> 00:19:53.920
 renounce

00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:54.680
 all that he

00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:55.039
 has

00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:55.680
 cannot be

00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:55.980
 in my

00:19:55.980 --> 00:19:56.460
 disciple

00:19:56.460 --> 00:20:00.680
 what about

00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:01.339
 your stuff

00:20:01.339 --> 00:20:03.779
 your earthly

00:20:03.779 --> 00:20:04.539
 possessions

00:20:04.539 --> 00:20:06.099
 your wealth

00:20:06.099 --> 00:20:07.779
 what about

00:20:07.779 --> 00:20:08.900
 your reputation

00:20:08.900 --> 00:20:10.339
 your place

00:20:10.339 --> 00:20:11.259
 in society

00:20:11.259 --> 00:20:12.500
 your place

00:20:12.500 --> 00:20:12.819
 in your

00:20:12.819 --> 00:20:13.460
 community

00:20:13.460 --> 00:20:17.279
 Jesus never

00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:17.819
 says

00:20:17.819 --> 00:20:18.440
 you can't

00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:18.940
 have these

00:20:18.940 --> 00:20:19.380
 things

00:20:19.380 --> 00:20:20.220
 it is so

00:20:20.220 --> 00:20:20.800
 clear in

00:20:20.800 --> 00:20:21.060
 the new

00:20:21.060 --> 00:20:21.400
 testament

00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:21.760
 in the

00:20:21.760 --> 00:20:22.260
 first century

00:20:22.260 --> 00:20:22.580
 there were

00:20:22.580 --> 00:20:23.000
 people who

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:23.700
 had things

00:20:23.700 --> 00:20:24.440
 even the

00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:25.080
 apostle Paul

00:20:25.080 --> 00:20:25.660
 would claim

00:20:25.660 --> 00:20:26.120
 his Roman

00:20:26.120 --> 00:20:26.840
 citizenship

00:20:26.840 --> 00:20:28.080
 at times

00:20:28.080 --> 00:20:28.540
 for the

00:20:28.540 --> 00:20:28.860
 sake of

00:20:28.860 --> 00:20:29.420
 the gospel

00:20:29.420 --> 00:20:31.260
 but

00:20:31.260 --> 00:20:32.080
 fundamentally

00:20:32.080 --> 00:20:33.600
 he had

00:20:33.600 --> 00:20:34.260
 disavowed

00:20:34.260 --> 00:20:34.900
 that as

00:20:34.900 --> 00:20:35.280
 being the

00:20:35.280 --> 00:20:35.900
 most important

00:20:35.900 --> 00:20:36.540
 thing about

00:20:36.540 --> 00:20:36.820
 him

00:20:36.820 --> 00:20:42.080
 this is the

00:20:42.080 --> 00:20:42.800
 question for

00:20:42.800 --> 00:20:43.220
 us

00:20:43.220 --> 00:20:44.680
 who live in

00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:45.440
 an extremely

00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:46.340
 materialistic

00:20:46.340 --> 00:20:46.800
 culture

00:20:46.800 --> 00:20:47.800
 who live in

00:20:47.800 --> 00:20:48.220
 a culture

00:20:48.220 --> 00:20:48.660
 where we

00:20:48.660 --> 00:20:49.319
 are constantly

00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:50.700
 looking for

00:20:50.700 --> 00:20:51.299
 the next

00:20:51.299 --> 00:20:52.500
 Instagram

00:20:52.500 --> 00:20:53.640
 photo or

00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:54.339
 Twitter feed

00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:54.900
 or something

00:20:54.900 --> 00:20:55.920
 to help us

00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:56.299
 know where

00:20:56.299 --> 00:20:56.900
 we fit in

00:20:56.900 --> 00:20:57.440
 the world

00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:02.420
 Jesus says

00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:03.019
 will you

00:21:03.019 --> 00:21:04.039
 renounce those

00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:05.839
 things and

00:21:05.839 --> 00:21:06.559
 follow me

00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:09.259
 will you

00:21:09.259 --> 00:21:10.180
 forsake the

00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:10.920
 shame that you

00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:12.220
 feel for the

00:21:12.220 --> 00:21:12.680
 things that you

00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:13.440
 don't have in

00:21:13.440 --> 00:21:14.019
 this world

00:21:14.019 --> 00:21:15.859
 will you

00:21:15.859 --> 00:21:16.759
 recognize that

00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:17.660
 that shame

00:21:17.660 --> 00:21:19.660
 can be

00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:20.460
 replaced by

00:21:20.460 --> 00:21:21.019
 the full

00:21:21.019 --> 00:21:22.220
 acceptance and

00:21:22.220 --> 00:21:22.940
 glory of

00:21:22.940 --> 00:21:23.559
 being God's

00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:24.059
 child

00:21:24.059 --> 00:21:26.220
 it does not

00:21:26.220 --> 00:21:26.799
 matter what you

00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:27.359
 have in this

00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:28.099
 world when you

00:21:28.099 --> 00:21:28.779
 have Jesus

00:21:28.779 --> 00:21:32.879
 are you

00:21:32.879 --> 00:21:33.359
 willing to

00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:34.180
 give what you

00:21:34.180 --> 00:21:34.859
 do have

00:21:34.859 --> 00:21:35.660
 and recognize

00:21:35.660 --> 00:21:36.279
 that everything

00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:37.720
 that you

00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:39.400
 have has been

00:21:39.400 --> 00:21:40.379
 given to you

00:21:40.379 --> 00:21:41.619
 and is ultimately

00:21:41.619 --> 00:21:42.659
 at Jesus

00:21:42.659 --> 00:21:43.339
 disposal

00:21:43.339 --> 00:21:45.559
 this is not a

00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:46.219
 Marie Kondo

00:21:46.219 --> 00:21:47.359
 moment where

00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:47.739
 you're just

00:21:47.739 --> 00:21:48.659
 decluttering your

00:21:48.659 --> 00:21:49.439
 life to make it

00:21:49.439 --> 00:21:50.059
 more comfortable

00:21:50.059 --> 00:21:50.579
 and a little

00:21:50.579 --> 00:21:51.000
 cleaner

00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:53.519
 it is

00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:54.479
 sacrificially

00:21:54.479 --> 00:21:55.159
 giving the

00:21:55.159 --> 00:21:55.879
 things that you

00:21:55.879 --> 00:21:56.359
 would rather

00:21:56.359 --> 00:21:56.859
 keep

00:21:56.859 --> 00:21:58.659
 for the sake

00:21:58.659 --> 00:21:59.159
 of following

00:21:59.159 --> 00:21:59.779
 Jesus

00:21:59.779 --> 00:22:05.000
 friends

00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:05.619
 Jesus

00:22:05.619 --> 00:22:06.899
 says

00:22:06.899 --> 00:22:08.279
 if you're

00:22:08.279 --> 00:22:08.819
 going to be

00:22:08.819 --> 00:22:09.259
 a follower

00:22:09.259 --> 00:22:09.779
 of me

00:22:09.779 --> 00:22:11.339
 you must

00:22:11.339 --> 00:22:11.859
 surrender

00:22:11.859 --> 00:22:12.479
 all

00:22:12.479 --> 00:22:13.299
 to me

00:22:13.299 --> 00:22:14.799
 or you

00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:15.119
 cannot

00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:15.739
 be my

00:22:15.739 --> 00:22:16.199
 disciple

00:22:16.199 --> 00:22:19.000
 so this

00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:19.399
 is the

00:22:19.399 --> 00:22:20.039
 thrust of

00:22:20.039 --> 00:22:20.599
 his teaching

00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:21.359
 and then in

00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:21.659
 the middle

00:22:21.659 --> 00:22:22.359
 he embeds

00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:23.939
 these two

00:22:23.939 --> 00:22:25.399
 parables

00:22:25.399 --> 00:22:26.679
 his instruction

00:22:26.679 --> 00:22:27.839
 on how we

00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:28.219
 are to think

00:22:28.219 --> 00:22:28.919
 about this

00:22:28.919 --> 00:22:30.379
 and fundamentally

00:22:30.379 --> 00:22:31.179
 both parables

00:22:31.179 --> 00:22:31.779
 have one

00:22:31.779 --> 00:22:32.259
 point

00:22:32.259 --> 00:22:35.160
 this is in

00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:35.799
 verse 28

00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:36.539
 through 32

00:22:36.539 --> 00:22:37.480
 the parables

00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:37.960
 of building

00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:38.379
 a tower

00:22:38.379 --> 00:22:38.779
 and going

00:22:38.779 --> 00:22:39.180
 to war

00:22:39.180 --> 00:22:39.619
 the one

00:22:39.619 --> 00:22:40.359
 point is

00:22:40.359 --> 00:22:41.579
 count the

00:22:41.579 --> 00:22:42.119
 cost

00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:44.379
 if you're

00:22:44.379 --> 00:22:44.839
 building a

00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:45.200
 tower

00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.019
 why would

00:22:48.019 --> 00:22:48.619
 you begin

00:22:48.619 --> 00:22:49.940
 not knowing

00:22:49.940 --> 00:22:50.359
 if you had

00:22:50.359 --> 00:22:50.920
 the resources

00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:51.500
 to finish

00:22:51.500 --> 00:22:51.819
 it

00:22:51.819 --> 00:22:54.680
 now I know

00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:55.099
 when I

00:22:55.099 --> 00:22:56.000
 lived in

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:56.779
 China for a

00:22:56.779 --> 00:22:57.299
 few years

00:22:57.299 --> 00:22:58.099
 during the

00:22:58.099 --> 00:22:58.759
 housing boom

00:22:58.759 --> 00:22:59.079
 and the

00:22:59.079 --> 00:22:59.859
 economic boom

00:22:59.859 --> 00:23:01.179
 there were

00:23:01.179 --> 00:23:01.459
 lots of

00:23:01.459 --> 00:23:01.799
 people who

00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:02.339
 built buildings

00:23:02.339 --> 00:23:02.819
 like this

00:23:02.819 --> 00:23:03.119
 and they

00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:03.500
 didn't feel

00:23:03.500 --> 00:23:04.079
 very ashamed

00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:04.559
 about it

00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:04.899
 it didn't

00:23:04.899 --> 00:23:05.399
 seem like

00:23:05.399 --> 00:23:06.019
 but it

00:23:06.019 --> 00:23:06.419
 seems that

00:23:06.419 --> 00:23:06.679
 in the

00:23:06.679 --> 00:23:07.419
 first century

00:23:07.419 --> 00:23:08.859
 when you

00:23:08.859 --> 00:23:09.259
 look at the

00:23:09.259 --> 00:23:09.619
 parable

00:23:09.619 --> 00:23:09.979
 and how

00:23:09.979 --> 00:23:10.619
 Jesus says

00:23:10.619 --> 00:23:11.279
 the people

00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:11.879
 began to

00:23:11.879 --> 00:23:12.799
 mock him

00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:13.219
 when he

00:23:13.219 --> 00:23:13.639
 could not

00:23:13.639 --> 00:23:14.259
 finish it

00:23:14.259 --> 00:23:15.799
 what kind

00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:16.359
 of businessman

00:23:16.359 --> 00:23:16.839
 are you

00:23:16.839 --> 00:23:17.159
 when you

00:23:17.159 --> 00:23:17.619
 start a

00:23:17.619 --> 00:23:17.939
 project

00:23:17.939 --> 00:23:18.279
 and you

00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:18.699
 don't have

00:23:18.699 --> 00:23:19.139
 a plan

00:23:19.139 --> 00:23:19.859
 you haven't

00:23:19.859 --> 00:23:20.599
 counted

00:23:20.599 --> 00:23:21.019
 what the

00:23:21.019 --> 00:23:21.479
 cost should

00:23:21.479 --> 00:23:21.719
 be and

00:23:21.719 --> 00:23:21.939
 therefore

00:23:21.939 --> 00:23:22.459
 you cannot

00:23:22.459 --> 00:23:23.299
 finish it

00:23:23.299 --> 00:23:26.199
 shame on

00:23:26.199 --> 00:23:26.519
 you

00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:30.099
 Jesus

00:23:30.099 --> 00:23:30.519
 seems to

00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:30.980
 be pulling

00:23:30.980 --> 00:23:31.440
 on that

00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:31.839
 to say

00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:32.180
 it is

00:23:32.180 --> 00:23:33.059
 disgraceful

00:23:33.059 --> 00:23:35.819
 to not

00:23:35.819 --> 00:23:36.259
 count the

00:23:36.259 --> 00:23:36.779
 cost

00:23:36.779 --> 00:23:39.119
 then he

00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:39.440
 goes on

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:39.759
 he talks

00:23:39.759 --> 00:23:40.440
 about war

00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:41.379
 if a king

00:23:41.379 --> 00:23:42.579
 has these

00:23:42.579 --> 00:23:43.039
 resources

00:23:43.039 --> 00:23:43.519
 and he goes

00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:43.960
 to war

00:23:43.960 --> 00:23:44.519
 against this

00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:44.960
 guy who

00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:45.539
 has double

00:23:45.539 --> 00:23:46.220
 the resources

00:23:46.220 --> 00:23:47.099
 he's got to

00:23:47.099 --> 00:23:47.440
 think through

00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:47.940
 can I win

00:23:47.940 --> 00:23:48.500
 this war

00:23:48.500 --> 00:23:49.339
 and if he

00:23:49.339 --> 00:23:49.799
 sees that he

00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:50.319
 can't

00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:51.240
 then he

00:23:51.240 --> 00:23:52.119
 should be

00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:52.940
 responsible

00:23:52.940 --> 00:23:53.660
 and sue

00:23:53.660 --> 00:23:54.279
 for peace

00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:55.160
 to avoid

00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:55.799
 bloodshed

00:23:55.799 --> 00:23:56.879
 and his own

00:23:56.879 --> 00:23:57.480
 army being

00:23:57.480 --> 00:23:57.960
 completely

00:23:57.960 --> 00:23:58.559
 destroyed

00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:01.839
 for that

00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:02.359
 king to

00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:02.839
 not count

00:24:02.839 --> 00:24:03.519
 the cost

00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:04.339
 to not

00:24:04.339 --> 00:24:04.859
 look ahead

00:24:04.859 --> 00:24:05.379
 and see

00:24:05.379 --> 00:24:05.720
 what it

00:24:05.720 --> 00:24:06.379
 would mean

00:24:06.379 --> 00:24:07.159
 for them

00:24:07.159 --> 00:24:07.460
 to go

00:24:07.460 --> 00:24:08.039
 to war

00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:10.460
 and to

00:24:10.460 --> 00:24:11.339
 address it

00:24:11.339 --> 00:24:14.299
 at its

00:24:14.299 --> 00:24:14.599
 core

00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:15.200
 Jesus is

00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:15.519
 saying

00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:16.000
 to not

00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:16.419
 count the

00:24:16.419 --> 00:24:16.759
 cost

00:24:16.759 --> 00:24:17.559
 is foolish

00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:20.619
 is foolish

00:24:20.619 --> 00:24:21.680
 in the

00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:21.899
 most

00:24:21.899 --> 00:24:22.460
 biblically

00:24:22.460 --> 00:24:22.899
 weighted

00:24:22.899 --> 00:24:23.399
 way

00:24:23.399 --> 00:24:24.639
 of not

00:24:24.639 --> 00:24:25.119
 just

00:24:25.119 --> 00:24:26.639
 silly

00:24:26.639 --> 00:24:27.679
 and immature

00:24:27.679 --> 00:24:28.919
 but foolish

00:24:28.919 --> 00:24:29.319
 in the

00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:29.699
 sense of

00:24:29.699 --> 00:24:29.939
 being

00:24:29.939 --> 00:24:30.479
 wrong

00:24:30.479 --> 00:24:32.519
 being

00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:33.399
 irresponsible

00:24:33.399 --> 00:24:35.279
 acting

00:24:35.279 --> 00:24:35.779
 without

00:24:35.779 --> 00:24:36.339
 regard

00:24:36.339 --> 00:24:37.279
 to your

00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:37.799
 responsibility

00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:38.759
 before God

00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:41.459
 when Jesus

00:24:41.459 --> 00:24:42.099
 says these

00:24:42.099 --> 00:24:42.559
 things he

00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:42.899
 has I

00:24:42.899 --> 00:24:43.339
 think two

00:24:43.339 --> 00:24:43.839
 audiences

00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:44.559
 in mind

00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:45.579
 because for

00:24:45.579 --> 00:24:46.619
 one one

00:24:46.619 --> 00:24:46.879
 of his

00:24:46.879 --> 00:24:47.239
 audiences

00:24:47.239 --> 00:24:47.679
 is this

00:24:47.679 --> 00:24:48.239
 crowd

00:24:48.239 --> 00:24:49.739
 remember we

00:24:49.739 --> 00:24:50.219
 talked about

00:24:50.219 --> 00:24:50.459
 at the

00:24:50.459 --> 00:24:50.699
 beginning

00:24:50.699 --> 00:24:51.539
 Jesus was

00:24:51.539 --> 00:24:52.239
 collecting a

00:24:52.239 --> 00:24:52.819
 big crowd

00:24:52.819 --> 00:24:53.379
 of people

00:24:53.380 --> 00:24:54.460
 and they

00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:54.800
 may be

00:24:54.800 --> 00:24:55.200
 coming for

00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:55.800
 all sorts

00:24:55.800 --> 00:24:56.500
 of reasons

00:24:56.500 --> 00:24:58.000
 and Jesus

00:24:58.000 --> 00:24:58.820
 doesn't do

00:24:58.820 --> 00:24:59.600
 what the

00:24:59.600 --> 00:25:00.020
 church in

00:25:00.020 --> 00:25:00.440
 the 20th

00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:00.960
 century has

00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:01.320
 at least

00:25:01.320 --> 00:25:02.460
 been tempted

00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:03.180
 to do

00:25:03.180 --> 00:25:04.200
 which is to

00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:05.100
 water down

00:25:05.100 --> 00:25:06.080
 the gospel

00:25:06.080 --> 00:25:06.880
 call and

00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:07.340
 the bar

00:25:07.340 --> 00:25:08.000
 of what it

00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:08.400
 means to

00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:09.100
 follow Jesus

00:25:09.100 --> 00:25:09.860
 come to

00:25:09.860 --> 00:25:10.780
 Jesus no

00:25:10.780 --> 00:25:11.360
 matter what

00:25:11.360 --> 00:25:12.320
 because he's

00:25:12.320 --> 00:25:12.620
 going to make

00:25:12.620 --> 00:25:12.960
 your life

00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:13.960
 easy and we

00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:14.560
 don't want you

00:25:14.560 --> 00:25:15.180
 to think that

00:25:15.180 --> 00:25:15.500
 there's going

00:25:15.500 --> 00:25:15.880
 to be anything

00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:16.740
 asked of you

00:25:16.740 --> 00:25:17.260
 in this

00:25:17.260 --> 00:25:17.700
 so it's not

00:25:17.700 --> 00:25:18.200
 going to cost

00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:18.780
 you very much

00:25:18.780 --> 00:25:19.660
 come and be a

00:25:19.660 --> 00:25:20.240
 part of this

00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:20.700
 come be

00:25:20.700 --> 00:25:21.819
 and we

00:25:21.819 --> 00:25:22.319
 love to

00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:22.740
 build an

00:25:22.740 --> 00:25:23.440
 organization

00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:23.860
 or a

00:25:23.860 --> 00:25:24.220
 movement

00:25:24.220 --> 00:25:25.600
 or a

00:25:25.600 --> 00:25:26.140
 crowd

00:25:26.140 --> 00:25:26.640
 or a

00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:27.120
 mob

00:25:27.120 --> 00:25:28.220
 of people

00:25:28.220 --> 00:25:28.759
 who get

00:25:28.759 --> 00:25:29.580
 really excited

00:25:29.580 --> 00:25:30.500
 about church

00:25:30.500 --> 00:25:31.799
 but who

00:25:31.799 --> 00:25:32.700
 haven't necessarily

00:25:32.700 --> 00:25:33.600
 counted the

00:25:33.600 --> 00:25:34.160
 cost

00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:35.480
 of following

00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:36.140
 Jesus

00:25:36.140 --> 00:25:39.759
 friends this

00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:40.400
 is why the

00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:41.340
 prosperity gospel

00:25:41.340 --> 00:25:41.819
 is so

00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:42.299
 dangerous

00:25:42.299 --> 00:25:45.140
 because it

00:25:45.140 --> 00:25:46.140
 promises that

00:25:46.140 --> 00:25:47.400
 Jesus is

00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:48.480
 calling you

00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:49.860
 to find in

00:25:49.860 --> 00:25:50.660
 him your

00:25:50.660 --> 00:25:51.259
 best life

00:25:51.259 --> 00:25:51.740
 now

00:25:51.740 --> 00:25:53.259
 the fulfillment

00:25:53.259 --> 00:25:53.880
 of all of

00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:54.519
 your human

00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:55.440
 materialistic

00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.079
 dreams

00:25:56.079 --> 00:25:57.599
 and that

00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:58.740
 God wants

00:25:58.740 --> 00:25:59.079
 you to be

00:25:59.079 --> 00:25:59.559
 comfortable

00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:00.120
 and that God

00:26:00.120 --> 00:26:00.579
 wants you to

00:26:00.579 --> 00:26:01.440
 be happy

00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:02.259
 in your own

00:26:02.259 --> 00:26:03.039
 definition of

00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:03.460
 what that

00:26:03.460 --> 00:26:04.059
 means

00:26:04.059 --> 00:26:06.380
 and Jesus

00:26:06.380 --> 00:26:07.099
 says something

00:26:07.099 --> 00:26:08.039
 very different

00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:09.460
 Jesus says

00:26:09.460 --> 00:26:10.099
 if you want

00:26:10.099 --> 00:26:10.519
 to follow

00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:10.920
 me

00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:11.660
 count the

00:26:11.660 --> 00:26:12.180
 cost of

00:26:12.180 --> 00:26:12.539
 leaving

00:26:12.539 --> 00:26:13.299
 everything

00:26:13.299 --> 00:26:13.900
 behind

00:26:13.900 --> 00:26:14.660
 in this

00:26:14.660 --> 00:26:15.120
 world

00:26:15.120 --> 00:26:16.500
 to get

00:26:16.500 --> 00:26:16.940
 everything

00:26:16.940 --> 00:26:17.539
 you ever

00:26:17.539 --> 00:26:18.039
 really

00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:18.519
 wanted

00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:19.200
 in me

00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:21.700
 Jesus

00:26:21.700 --> 00:26:22.180
 message

00:26:22.180 --> 00:26:22.420
 is

00:26:22.420 --> 00:26:23.440
 the

00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:23.900
 call

00:26:23.900 --> 00:26:24.259
 for you

00:26:24.259 --> 00:26:24.740
 to follow

00:26:24.740 --> 00:26:24.960
 me

00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:25.279
 is to

00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:25.559
 go

00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:25.820
 through

00:26:25.820 --> 00:26:25.980
 a

00:26:25.980 --> 00:26:26.480
 Copernican

00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:27.160
 revolution

00:26:27.160 --> 00:26:28.180
 where the

00:26:28.180 --> 00:26:28.500
 world

00:26:28.500 --> 00:26:28.880
 before

00:26:28.880 --> 00:26:29.500
 Copernicus

00:26:29.500 --> 00:26:30.480
 thought

00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:31.039
 that the

00:26:31.039 --> 00:26:31.279
 earth

00:26:31.279 --> 00:26:31.720
 was the

00:26:31.720 --> 00:26:32.019
 center

00:26:32.019 --> 00:26:32.340
 of the

00:26:32.340 --> 00:26:32.700
 universe

00:26:32.700 --> 00:26:33.759
 and that

00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:34.120
 everything

00:26:34.120 --> 00:26:34.740
 revolved

00:26:34.740 --> 00:26:35.180
 around the

00:26:35.180 --> 00:26:35.440
 earth

00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:35.820
 and that's

00:26:35.820 --> 00:26:36.200
 what we

00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:36.600
 do in

00:26:36.600 --> 00:26:36.759
 our

00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:37.120
 sinful

00:26:37.120 --> 00:26:37.600
 selfish

00:26:37.600 --> 00:26:38.019
 hearts

00:26:38.019 --> 00:26:38.640
 we think

00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:38.799
 it's

00:26:38.799 --> 00:26:39.259
 all about

00:26:39.259 --> 00:26:39.740
 us

00:26:39.740 --> 00:26:43.400
 and the

00:26:43.400 --> 00:26:43.740
 call

00:26:43.740 --> 00:26:44.380
 for Jesus

00:26:44.380 --> 00:26:44.799
 and the

00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:45.220
 call of

00:26:45.220 --> 00:26:45.740
 the gospel

00:26:45.740 --> 00:26:46.360
 to believe

00:26:46.359 --> 00:26:46.759
 in Jesus

00:26:46.759 --> 00:26:47.319
 is not

00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:48.279
 Jesus

00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:48.679
 coming

00:26:48.679 --> 00:26:49.259
 and aligning

00:26:49.259 --> 00:26:50.039
 those worlds

00:26:50.039 --> 00:26:50.599
 a little bit

00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:52.099
 more fortuitously

00:26:52.099 --> 00:26:52.859
 for us

00:26:52.859 --> 00:26:53.979
 but it is

00:26:53.979 --> 00:26:54.659
 completely

00:26:54.659 --> 00:26:55.579
 reworking

00:26:55.579 --> 00:26:56.539
 our understanding

00:26:56.539 --> 00:26:57.059
 so that

00:26:57.059 --> 00:26:57.759
 the sun

00:26:57.759 --> 00:26:58.199
 is in the

00:26:58.199 --> 00:26:58.399
 middle

00:26:58.399 --> 00:26:58.799
 of our

00:26:58.799 --> 00:26:59.500
 solar system

00:26:59.500 --> 00:27:00.279
 and we

00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:00.859
 are orbiting

00:27:00.859 --> 00:27:01.419
 our lives

00:27:01.419 --> 00:27:02.339
 around him

00:27:02.339 --> 00:27:03.039
 and he

00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:03.439
 is the

00:27:03.439 --> 00:27:04.179
 centerpiece

00:27:04.179 --> 00:27:06.259
 and as

00:27:06.259 --> 00:27:06.959
 the centerpiece

00:27:06.959 --> 00:27:07.479
 he is the

00:27:07.479 --> 00:27:08.099
 life-giving

00:27:08.099 --> 00:27:08.619
 power

00:27:08.619 --> 00:27:10.279
 that brings

00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:11.000
 all that we

00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:11.379
 need

00:27:11.379 --> 00:27:12.319
 to flourish

00:27:12.319 --> 00:27:12.919
 in the way

00:27:12.919 --> 00:27:13.259
 that God

00:27:13.259 --> 00:27:13.919
 created us

00:27:13.919 --> 00:27:14.240
 to

00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:17.140
 but only

00:27:17.140 --> 00:27:17.660
 as we

00:27:17.660 --> 00:27:18.259
 reorient

00:27:18.259 --> 00:27:19.160
 ourselves

00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:20.859
 in that

00:27:20.859 --> 00:27:21.299
 way

00:27:21.299 --> 00:27:23.559
 remember

00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:24.079
 that this

00:27:24.079 --> 00:27:24.680
 comes right

00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:25.180
 after the

00:27:25.180 --> 00:27:25.740
 passage that

00:27:25.740 --> 00:27:26.640
 Greg preached

00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:27.180
 on last

00:27:27.180 --> 00:27:27.480
 week

00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:28.900
 where Jesus

00:27:28.900 --> 00:27:29.640
 told a

00:27:29.640 --> 00:27:30.380
 parable of

00:27:30.380 --> 00:27:30.920
 inviting

00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:32.000
 people to

00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:32.500
 a great

00:27:32.500 --> 00:27:33.380
 banquet table

00:27:33.380 --> 00:27:34.779
 and this

00:27:34.779 --> 00:27:35.059
 is what

00:27:35.059 --> 00:27:35.579
 Jesus is

00:27:35.579 --> 00:27:35.880
 doing

00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:36.259
 is he's

00:27:36.259 --> 00:27:36.980
 calling us

00:27:36.980 --> 00:27:37.579
 he's saying

00:27:37.579 --> 00:27:37.880
 it's going

00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:38.539
 to cost you

00:27:38.539 --> 00:27:39.039
 everything

00:27:39.039 --> 00:27:39.940
 but you're

00:27:39.940 --> 00:27:40.200
 going to

00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:14.220
 haven't

00:29:14.220 --> 00:29:14.360
 we

00:29:14.360 --> 00:29:14.660

 follow

00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:16.220
 you

 and

00:29:19.300 --> 00:29:19.440
 yet

00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:19.580
 they

00:29:19.580 --> 00:29:20.100
 continued

00:29:20.100 --> 00:29:20.400
 to

 learn

00:29:20.780 --> 00:29:21.720
 ongoing

00:29:22.100 --> 00:29:22.400
 ongoing

00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:22.720
 way

00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:22.960
 what

00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:23.240
 that

00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:23.640
 meant

00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:27.660
 it's

00:29:27.660 --> 00:29:27.860
 not

00:29:27.860 --> 00:29:28.120
 just

00:29:28.120 --> 00:29:28.340
 the

00:29:28.340 --> 00:29:28.840
 entrance

 I've

00:29:29.220 --> 00:29:29.560
 renounced

00:29:29.560 --> 00:29:29.740

 first

00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:30.780
 time

00:29:30.780 --> 00:29:30.980
 when

00:29:30.980 --> 00:29:31.120
 I

00:29:31.120 --> 00:29:31.400
 walked

00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:31.680
 in

00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:32.100
 but

00:29:32.100 --> 00:29:32.280
 it's

00:29:32.280 --> 00:29:32.440
 an

00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:32.940
 ongoing

00:29:32.940 --> 00:29:33.360
 thing

00:29:33.360 --> 00:29:33.620
 some

00:29:33.620 --> 00:29:33.759
 of

00:29:35.420 --> 00:29:35.860
 time

00:29:35.860 --> 00:29:36.400
 in

00:29:36.560 --> 00:29:36.960
 congregation

00:29:36.960 --> 00:29:37.800
 and

 have

00:29:38.360 --> 00:29:38.720
 seen

00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:38.940
 the

00:29:38.940 --> 00:29:39.540
 temptations

00:29:39.540 --> 00:29:39.759
 that

00:29:39.759 --> 00:29:40.080
 rise

00:29:40.080 --> 00:29:40.320
 up

00:29:40.320 --> 00:29:40.780
 not

00:29:40.780 --> 00:29:40.920
 in

00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:41.060
 the

00:29:41.060 --> 00:29:41.280
 first

00:29:41.280 --> 00:29:41.720
 five

00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:42.080
 years

00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:42.340
 when

00:29:42.340 --> 00:29:42.500
 you're

00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:42.720
 trying

00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:42.880
 to

00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:43.340
 forsake

00:29:43.340 --> 00:29:43.540
 what

00:29:43.540 --> 00:29:43.720
 you

00:29:43.720 --> 00:29:44.000
 used

00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:44.160
 to

00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:44.540
 have

00:29:44.540 --> 00:29:45.160
 but

00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:45.400
 now

00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:45.600
 that

00:29:45.600 --> 00:29:45.820
 you've

00:29:45.820 --> 00:29:46.240
 been

00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:46.440
 in

00:29:46.440 --> 00:29:46.700
 life

00:29:46.700 --> 00:29:46.840
 for

00:29:46.840 --> 00:29:46.980
 a

00:29:46.980 --> 00:29:47.200
 long

00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:47.500
 time

00:29:47.500 --> 00:29:47.660
 you

00:29:47.660 --> 00:29:47.920
 see

00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:48.140
 the

00:29:48.140 --> 00:29:48.440
 new

00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:48.940
 ways

00:29:48.940 --> 00:29:49.180
 in

00:29:49.180 --> 00:29:49.460
 which

00:29:49.460 --> 00:29:49.980
 your

00:29:49.980 --> 00:29:50.299
 heart

00:29:50.299 --> 00:29:50.680
 begins

00:29:50.680 --> 00:29:50.920
 to

00:29:50.920 --> 00:29:51.180
 latch

00:29:51.180 --> 00:29:51.400
 onto

00:29:51.400 --> 00:29:51.740
 other

00:29:51.740 --> 00:29:52.340
 things

00:29:52.340 --> 00:29:53.120
 my

00:29:53.120 --> 00:29:53.840
 grandchildren

00:29:53.840 --> 00:29:54.559
 my

00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:55.279
 retirement

00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:57.380
 my

00:29:57.380 --> 00:29:57.960
 health

00:29:57.960 --> 00:29:59.140
 and

00:29:59.140 --> 00:29:59.539
 these

00:29:59.539 --> 00:29:59.860
 things

00:29:59.860 --> 00:30:00.259
 become

00:30:00.259 --> 00:30:00.460
 the

00:30:00.460 --> 00:30:00.640
 thing

00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:00.799
 that

00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:00.940
 we

00:30:00.940 --> 00:30:01.259
 start

00:30:01.259 --> 00:30:01.480
 to

00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:01.720
 live

00:30:01.720 --> 00:30:02.120
 for

00:30:02.120 --> 00:30:04.799
 and

00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:05.100
 Jesus

00:30:05.100 --> 00:30:05.500
 says

00:30:05.500 --> 00:30:05.720
 will

00:30:05.720 --> 00:30:05.880
 you

00:30:05.880 --> 00:30:06.299
 surrender

00:30:06.299 --> 00:30:06.819
 them

00:30:06.819 --> 00:30:07.420
 to

00:30:07.420 --> 00:30:07.740
 me

00:30:07.740 --> 00:30:13.400
 now

00:30:13.400 --> 00:30:13.660
 look

00:30:13.660 --> 00:30:14.299
 we need

00:30:14.299 --> 00:30:14.519
 to be

00:30:14.519 --> 00:30:14.819
 clear

00:30:14.819 --> 00:30:15.000
 on

00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:15.279
 this

00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:17.399
 it

00:30:17.399 --> 00:30:17.539
 is

00:30:17.539 --> 00:30:17.740
 not

00:30:17.740 --> 00:30:17.859
 a

00:30:17.859 --> 00:30:18.039
 matter

00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:18.259
 of

00:30:18.259 --> 00:30:18.839
 perfection

00:30:18.839 --> 00:30:20.899
 the

00:30:20.899 --> 00:30:21.200
 apostle

00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:22.740
 Peter

00:30:22.740 --> 00:30:23.319
 himself

00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:23.839
 who

00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:23.980
 was

00:30:23.980 --> 00:30:24.200
 one

00:30:24.200 --> 00:30:24.319
 who

00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:24.480
 said

00:30:24.480 --> 00:30:24.740
 we've

00:30:24.740 --> 00:30:24.960
 left

00:30:24.960 --> 00:30:25.299
 everything

00:30:25.299 --> 00:30:25.500
 to

00:30:25.500 --> 00:30:25.799
 follow

00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:26.160
 you

00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:26.920
 was

00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:27.119
 the

00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:27.500
 same

00:30:27.500 --> 00:30:28.000
 apostle

00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:29.039
 who

00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:29.579
 on

00:30:29.579 --> 00:30:29.700
 the

00:30:29.700 --> 00:30:29.879
 night

00:30:29.879 --> 00:30:30.059
 when

00:30:30.059 --> 00:30:30.279
 Jesus

00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:30.500
 was

00:30:30.500 --> 00:30:30.940
 arrested

00:30:30.940 --> 00:30:32.220
 denied

00:30:32.220 --> 00:30:32.559
 him

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:32.779
 said

00:30:32.779 --> 00:30:32.940
 I

00:30:32.940 --> 00:30:33.200
 don't

00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:33.480
 know

00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:33.799
 him

00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:37.819
 it

00:30:37.819 --> 00:30:37.980
 is

00:30:37.980 --> 00:30:38.460
 not

00:30:38.460 --> 00:30:39.119
 about

00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:39.579
 us

00:30:39.579 --> 00:30:40.960
 being

00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:41.599
 perfect

 all

00:30:42.119 --> 00:30:42.240
 of

 our

00:30:42.379 --> 00:30:42.819
 choices

00:30:42.819 --> 00:30:44.139
 and

00:30:45.579 --> 00:30:46.799
 this

00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:46.960
 is

 a

00:30:48.059 --> 00:30:48.480
 disciple

00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:49.519
 what

00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:49.700
 it

00:30:49.700 --> 00:30:50.220
 is

00:30:50.220 --> 00:30:50.799
 is

00:30:50.799 --> 00:30:51.000
 when

00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:51.220
 the

00:30:51.220 --> 00:30:51.480
 Lord

00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:51.799
 puts

00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:51.980
 his

00:30:51.980 --> 00:30:52.359
 finger

00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:52.599
 on

00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:52.939
 something

00:30:52.939 --> 00:30:53.119
 in

00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:53.279
 our

00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:53.720
 lives

00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:53.939
 and

00:30:53.939 --> 00:30:54.059
 he

00:30:54.059 --> 00:30:54.259
 says

00:30:54.259 --> 00:30:54.439
 will

00:30:54.439 --> 00:30:54.559
 you

00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:54.819
 give

00:30:54.819 --> 00:30:55.019
 me

00:30:55.019 --> 00:30:55.419
 this

00:30:55.419 --> 00:30:58.059
 when

00:30:58.059 --> 00:30:58.220
 the

00:30:58.220 --> 00:30:58.480
 Lord

00:30:58.480 --> 00:30:59.319
 reveals

00:30:59.319 --> 00:30:59.700
 something

00:30:59.700 --> 00:30:59.899
 and

00:30:59.899 --> 00:31:00.299
 friends

00:31:00.299 --> 00:31:00.579
 let's

00:31:00.579 --> 00:31:00.720
 be

00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:00.919
 clear

00:31:00.919 --> 00:31:01.200
 Jesus

00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:01.519
 isn't

00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:01.779
 talking

00:31:01.779 --> 00:31:02.000
 about

00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:02.399
 sinful

00:31:02.399 --> 00:31:02.859
 things

00:31:02.859 --> 00:31:03.139
 he's

00:31:03.139 --> 00:31:03.399
 already

00:31:03.399 --> 00:31:03.700
 called

00:31:04.399 --> 00:31:04.779
 sin

00:31:04.779 --> 00:31:05.599
 so

00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:05.879
 it's

00:31:05.879 --> 00:31:06.059
 not

00:31:06.059 --> 00:31:06.220
 that

00:31:06.220 --> 00:31:06.379
 we

00:31:11.120 --> 00:31:11.240
 we

00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:11.360
 need

00:31:13.540 --> 00:31:14.300
 that's

00:31:14.300 --> 00:31:14.460
 not

00:31:14.460 --> 00:31:14.680
 what

00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:14.900
 Jesus

00:31:14.900 --> 00:31:15.120
 is

00:31:15.120 --> 00:31:15.380
 calling

 is

00:31:17.100 --> 00:31:17.320
 calling

00:31:19.160 --> 00:31:19.519
 right

00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:19.920
 things

00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:20.080
 that

00:31:20.080 --> 00:31:20.240
 we

00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:20.800
 normally

00:31:20.800 --> 00:31:21.140
 should

 be

00:31:22.340 --> 00:31:22.640
 how

00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:23.080
 easily

00:31:23.080 --> 00:31:23.340
 our

00:31:23.340 --> 00:31:23.640
 hearts

00:31:23.640 --> 00:31:24.259
 latch

00:31:24.259 --> 00:31:24.580
 onto

00:31:24.580 --> 00:31:24.960
 them

00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:28.900
 and

00:31:28.900 --> 00:31:29.060
 when

00:31:29.060 --> 00:31:29.360
 Jesus

00:31:29.360 --> 00:31:29.820
 says

00:31:29.820 --> 00:31:30.320
 will

00:31:30.320 --> 00:31:30.440
 you

00:31:30.440 --> 00:31:30.620
 give

00:31:30.620 --> 00:31:30.779
 me

00:31:30.779 --> 00:31:31.300
 this

00:31:31.300 --> 00:31:32.400
 will

00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:32.519
 you

00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:32.700
 give

00:31:32.700 --> 00:31:32.980
 me

00:31:32.980 --> 00:31:33.740
 this

00:31:33.740 --> 00:31:35.980
 will

00:31:35.980 --> 00:31:36.140
 you

00:31:36.140 --> 00:31:36.560
 surrender

00:31:36.560 --> 00:31:37.259
 this

00:31:37.259 --> 00:31:39.339
 that's

00:31:39.339 --> 00:31:39.539
 when

00:31:39.539 --> 00:31:39.720
 we

00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:39.960
 count

00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:40.140
 the

00:31:40.140 --> 00:31:40.700
 cost

00:31:40.700 --> 00:31:44.400
 you

00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:44.539
 know

00:31:44.539 --> 00:31:44.720
 it

00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:45.680
 it

00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:46.039
 strikes

00:31:46.039 --> 00:31:46.259
 me

00:31:46.259 --> 00:31:46.440
 that

00:31:46.440 --> 00:31:46.640
 one

00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:46.759
 of

00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:46.879
 the

00:31:46.879 --> 00:31:47.160
 deepest

00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:47.599
 ways

00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:47.900
 when

00:31:47.900 --> 00:31:48.079
 I

00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:48.319
 see

00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:48.680
 people

00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:50.240
 when

00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:50.359
 I

00:31:50.359 --> 00:31:50.500
 see

00:31:50.500 --> 00:31:50.700
 some

00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:50.859
 of

00:31:50.859 --> 00:31:51.079
 you

00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:51.460
 counting

00:31:51.460 --> 00:31:51.680
 the

00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:52.119
 cost

00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:52.440
 has

00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:52.619
 to

00:31:52.619 --> 00:31:52.799
 do

00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:52.980
 in

00:31:52.980 --> 00:31:53.579
 relationships

00:31:53.579 --> 00:31:55.379
 some

00:31:55.379 --> 00:31:55.539
 of

00:31:55.539 --> 00:31:55.700
 you

00:31:55.700 --> 00:31:55.879
 are

00:31:55.879 --> 00:31:56.339
 single

 some

00:31:59.859 --> 00:32:00.000
 of

 you

00:32:00.099 --> 00:32:00.240
 are

00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.500
 single

00:32:01.279 --> 00:32:01.619
 end

00:32:01.619 --> 00:32:02.460
 hoping

00:32:02.460 --> 00:32:02.720
 to

00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:02.879
 be

00:32:02.879 --> 00:32:03.200
 married

00:32:03.200 --> 00:32:03.920
 some

00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:04.059
 of

 further

00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:05.379
 on

00:32:05.379 --> 00:32:05.500
 in

00:32:05.500 --> 00:32:05.859
 life

00:32:05.859 --> 00:32:07.160
 maybe

00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:07.400
 for

00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:07.519
 a

00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:07.720
 second

00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:08.200
 time

00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:08.740
 maybe

00:32:08.740 --> 00:32:09.080
 still

00:32:09.080 --> 00:32:09.360
 hoping

00:32:09.360 --> 00:32:09.519
 to

00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:09.660
 be

00:32:09.660 --> 00:32:09.980
 married

00:32:09.980 --> 00:32:10.480
 or

00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:10.700
 maybe

00:32:10.700 --> 00:32:10.980
 not

00:32:10.980 --> 00:32:11.300
 hoping

 to

00:32:11.480 --> 00:32:11.620
 be

00:32:11.620 --> 00:32:11.980
 married

00:32:11.980 --> 00:32:13.200
 but

00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:13.340
 I

00:32:13.340 --> 00:32:13.519
 have

00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:13.980
 seen

00:32:13.980 --> 00:32:14.360
 you

00:32:14.360 --> 00:32:16.100
 pursue

00:32:16.100 --> 00:32:16.900
 faithfulness

00:32:16.900 --> 00:32:17.080
 in

00:32:17.080 --> 00:32:17.440
 Christ

00:32:17.440 --> 00:32:17.680
 and

00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:18.120
 counting

00:32:18.120 --> 00:32:18.420
 the

00:32:18.420 --> 00:32:18.920
 cost

00:32:18.920 --> 00:32:19.820
 I

00:32:19.820 --> 00:32:20.000
 have

00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:20.400
 seen

00:32:20.400 --> 00:32:20.960
 you

00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:23.240
 swim

00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:23.820
 against

00:32:23.820 --> 00:32:24.120
 the

00:32:24.120 --> 00:32:24.580
 tide

00:32:24.580 --> 00:32:25.360
 of

00:32:25.360 --> 00:32:25.500
 the

00:32:25.500 --> 00:32:25.779
 current

00:32:25.779 --> 00:32:25.900
 of

00:32:25.900 --> 00:32:26.060
 our

00:32:26.060 --> 00:32:26.500
 culture

00:32:26.500 --> 00:32:27.360
 which

00:32:27.360 --> 00:32:27.880
 says

00:32:27.880 --> 00:32:28.620
 you

00:32:28.620 --> 00:32:28.980
 deserve

00:32:28.980 --> 00:32:29.160
 to

00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:29.340
 be

00:32:29.340 --> 00:32:29.740
 happy

00:32:29.740 --> 00:32:30.400
 go

00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:30.519
 and

00:32:30.519 --> 00:32:30.920
 express

00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:31.400
 yourself

00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:31.759
 there's

00:32:31.759 --> 00:32:32.060
 nothing

00:32:32.060 --> 00:32:32.380
 wrong

00:32:32.380 --> 00:32:32.600
 with

00:32:32.600 --> 00:32:32.880
 that

00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:33.759
 you

00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:33.960
 have

00:32:33.960 --> 00:32:34.440
 chosen

00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:35.320
 faithfulness

00:32:35.320 --> 00:32:35.500
 to

00:32:35.500 --> 00:32:36.000
 Christ

00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:37.240
 and said

00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:37.680
 I will

00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:38.240
 pursue

00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:39.039
 purity

00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:39.480
 I will

00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:39.859
 pursue

00:32:39.859 --> 00:32:40.440
 healthy

00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:41.099
 relationships

00:32:41.099 --> 00:32:41.920
 I will

00:32:41.920 --> 00:32:42.299
 pursue

00:32:42.299 --> 00:32:42.940
 serving

00:32:42.940 --> 00:32:43.380
 others

00:32:43.380 --> 00:32:43.799
 I will

00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:44.099
 pursue

00:32:44.099 --> 00:32:44.799
 a stewardship

00:32:44.799 --> 00:32:45.759
 of the

00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:46.180
 freedom

00:32:46.180 --> 00:32:46.779
 that I have

00:32:46.779 --> 00:32:47.119
 in this

00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:47.579
 season of

00:32:47.579 --> 00:32:48.140
 my life

00:32:48.140 --> 00:32:48.839
 to be a

00:32:48.839 --> 00:32:49.200
 blessing

00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:50.039
 to others

00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:52.599
 rather than

00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:53.019
 allowing

00:32:53.019 --> 00:32:53.799
 yourselves

00:32:53.799 --> 00:32:54.279
 to

00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:56.059
 wallow

00:32:56.059 --> 00:32:56.460
 in self

00:32:56.460 --> 00:32:56.779
 pity

00:32:56.779 --> 00:32:58.059
 or run

00:32:58.059 --> 00:32:58.380
 off

00:32:58.380 --> 00:32:58.799
 after

00:32:58.799 --> 00:32:59.259
 fleeting

00:32:59.259 --> 00:32:59.720
 pleasure

00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:05.880
 I have

00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:06.100
 also

00:33:06.100 --> 00:33:06.360
 seen

00:33:06.360 --> 00:33:06.620
 some

00:33:06.620 --> 00:33:06.779
 of

00:33:06.779 --> 00:33:07.019
 you

00:33:07.019 --> 00:33:08.380
 who

00:33:08.380 --> 00:33:08.519
 are

00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:08.940
 married

00:33:08.940 --> 00:33:10.299
 count

00:33:10.299 --> 00:33:10.480
 the

00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:10.819
 cost

00:33:10.819 --> 00:33:11.019
 and

00:33:11.019 --> 00:33:11.299
 follow

00:33:11.299 --> 00:33:11.799
 Jesus

00:33:11.799 --> 00:33:14.900
 persevering

00:33:14.900 --> 00:33:15.100
 through

00:33:15.100 --> 00:33:15.720
 disappointment

00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:17.279
 when

00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:17.660
 your life

00:33:17.660 --> 00:33:17.980
 hasn't

00:33:17.980 --> 00:33:18.259
 looked

00:33:18.259 --> 00:33:18.660
 like

00:33:18.660 --> 00:33:18.880
 what

00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:19.039
 you

00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:19.319
 thought

00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:19.480
 it

00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:19.720
 would

00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:19.980
 when

00:33:19.980 --> 00:33:20.140
 you

00:33:20.140 --> 00:33:20.539
 first

00:33:20.539 --> 00:33:21.940
 entered

00:33:21.940 --> 00:33:22.279
 into

00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:22.799
 marriage

00:33:22.799 --> 00:33:23.380
 when

00:33:23.380 --> 00:33:23.539
 your

00:33:23.539 --> 00:33:23.880
 spouse

00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:24.120
 has

00:33:24.120 --> 00:33:24.259
 been

00:33:24.259 --> 00:33:24.400
 a

00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:24.620
 greater

00:33:24.620 --> 00:33:25.259
 disappointment

00:33:25.259 --> 00:33:26.900
 in

00:33:26.900 --> 00:33:27.140
 ways

00:33:27.140 --> 00:33:27.279
 that

00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:27.400
 you

00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:27.740
 never

00:33:27.740 --> 00:33:28.019
 saw

00:33:28.019 --> 00:33:28.440
 coming

00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:30.580
 and

00:33:30.580 --> 00:33:30.720
 I've

00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:30.900
 seen

00:33:30.900 --> 00:33:31.100
 you

00:33:31.100 --> 00:33:31.620
 choose

00:33:31.620 --> 00:33:32.420
 faithfulness

00:33:32.420 --> 00:33:33.400
 to

00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:33.960
 Jesus

00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:35.820
 over

00:33:35.820 --> 00:33:36.759
 selfishness

00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:37.740
 over

00:33:37.740 --> 00:33:38.299
 bitterness

00:33:38.299 --> 00:33:39.880
 over

00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:41.160
 recrimination

00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:42.200

 these

00:34:02.859 --> 00:34:02.980
 are

00:34:02.980 --> 00:34:03.200
 some

00:34:03.200 --> 00:34:03.299
 of

00:34:03.299 --> 00:34:03.440
 the

00:34:03.440 --> 00:34:03.720
 ways

00:34:03.720 --> 00:34:03.879
 that

00:34:13.219 --> 00:34:13.500
 one

00:34:13.500 --> 00:34:13.679

 can

00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:14.340
 do

00:34:17.099 --> 00:34:17.760
 because

00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:18.940

00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:21.840

 there

00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:23.679
 is

 that

00:34:25.340 --> 00:34:25.500
 is

00:34:25.500 --> 00:34:25.760
 worth

 selling

00:34:31.219 --> 00:34:31.559
 reason

00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:31.820
 why

00:34:31.820 --> 00:34:32.059
 we

00:34:32.059 --> 00:34:32.239
 can

00:34:36.619 --> 00:34:37.800
 is

00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:38.059
 because

00:34:38.059 --> 00:34:38.280
 he

00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:38.460
 went

00:34:38.460 --> 00:34:38.840
 ahead

00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:39.219
 and

00:34:39.219 --> 00:34:39.360
 did

00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:39.539

00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:36.779
 it

00:37:36.779 --> 00:37:37.179
 was

00:37:37.179 --> 00:37:37.699
 some

00:37:37.699 --> 00:37:38.000
 people

00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:38.559
 say

00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:38.859
 salt

00:37:38.859 --> 00:37:39.079
 never

00:37:39.079 --> 00:37:39.379
 loses

00:37:39.379 --> 00:37:39.959
 saltiness

00:37:39.960 --> 00:37:40.199
 this

00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:40.340
 is

00:37:40.340 --> 00:37:40.519
 just

00:37:40.519 --> 00:37:40.699
 an

00:37:40.699 --> 00:37:41.119
 image

00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:41.260
 it

00:37:41.260 --> 00:37:41.340
 is

00:37:41.340 --> 00:37:41.559
 kind

00:37:41.559 --> 00:37:41.639
 of

00:37:41.639 --> 00:37:42.159
 hypothetical

00:37:42.159 --> 00:37:42.900
 other

00:37:42.900 --> 00:37:43.179
 people

00:37:43.179 --> 00:37:43.460
 say

00:37:43.460 --> 00:37:43.639
 the

00:37:43.639 --> 00:37:43.880
 dead

00:37:43.880 --> 00:37:44.179
 sea

00:37:44.179 --> 00:37:44.599
 salt

00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:44.880
 was

00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:45.159
 salt

00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:45.340
 that

00:37:45.340 --> 00:37:45.639
 had

00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:46.480
 impurities

00:37:46.480 --> 00:37:46.800
 and

00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:47.000
 over

00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:47.360
 time

00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:47.500
 it

00:37:47.500 --> 00:37:47.619
 would

00:37:47.619 --> 00:37:47.920
 actually

00:37:47.920 --> 00:37:48.340
 decay

00:37:48.340 --> 00:37:48.539
 and

00:37:48.539 --> 00:37:48.840
 become

00:37:48.840 --> 00:37:49.300
 useless

00:37:49.300 --> 00:37:50.599
 I

00:37:50.599 --> 00:37:50.740
 don't

00:37:50.740 --> 00:37:50.920
 think

00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:51.039
 it

00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:51.400
 matters

00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:51.720
 to

00:37:51.720 --> 00:37:51.880
 be

00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:52.099
 honest

00:37:52.099 --> 00:37:52.300
 with

00:37:52.300 --> 00:37:52.460
 you

00:37:52.460 --> 00:37:52.720
 it

00:37:52.720 --> 00:37:53.300
 is

00:37:53.300 --> 00:37:53.579
 very

00:37:53.579 --> 00:37:53.940
 clear

00:37:53.940 --> 00:37:54.159
 what

00:37:54.159 --> 00:37:54.440
 Jesus

00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:54.720
 is

00:37:54.720 --> 00:37:55.139
 saying

00:37:55.139 --> 00:37:55.960
 salt

00:37:55.960 --> 00:37:56.199
 is

00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:56.820
 worthwhile

00:37:56.820 --> 00:37:57.220
 when

00:37:57.220 --> 00:37:57.360
 it

00:37:57.360 --> 00:37:57.579
 is

00:37:57.579 --> 00:37:58.019
 salty

00:37:58.019 --> 00:37:58.740
 because

00:37:58.740 --> 00:37:59.260
 that

00:37:59.260 --> 00:38:00.139
 saltiness

00:38:00.139 --> 00:38:00.800
 makes

00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:01.179
 it

00:38:01.179 --> 00:38:01.900
 useful

00:38:01.900 --> 00:38:02.699
 it

00:38:02.699 --> 00:38:03.019
 gives

00:38:03.019 --> 00:38:03.480
 flavor

00:38:03.480 --> 00:38:03.720
 to

00:38:03.720 --> 00:38:03.940
 our

00:38:03.940 --> 00:38:04.300
 food

00:38:04.300 --> 00:38:04.539
 and

00:38:04.539 --> 00:38:04.699
 it

00:38:04.699 --> 00:38:05.300
 preserves

00:38:05.300 --> 00:38:05.539
 the

00:38:05.539 --> 00:38:05.800
 things

00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:05.960
 that

00:38:05.960 --> 00:38:06.100
 we

00:38:06.100 --> 00:38:06.340
 rub

00:38:06.340 --> 00:38:06.640
 into

00:38:06.640 --> 00:38:06.880
 it

00:38:06.880 --> 00:38:07.440
 this

00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:07.620
 is

00:38:07.620 --> 00:38:07.940
 why

00:38:07.940 --> 00:38:08.300
 salt

00:38:08.300 --> 00:38:08.480
 is

00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:09.060
 worthwhile

00:38:09.060 --> 00:38:09.700
 and

00:38:09.700 --> 00:38:10.039
 if

00:38:10.039 --> 00:38:10.180
 it

00:38:10.180 --> 00:38:10.300
 is

00:38:10.300 --> 00:38:10.680
 lost

00:38:10.680 --> 00:38:11.080
 those

00:38:11.080 --> 00:38:11.600
 properties

00:38:11.600 --> 00:38:11.960
 it

00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:12.120
 is

00:38:12.120 --> 00:38:12.480
 nothing

00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:12.940
 but

00:38:12.940 --> 00:38:13.200
 a

00:38:13.200 --> 00:38:13.539
 useless

00:38:13.539 --> 00:38:14.060
 rock

00:38:14.060 --> 00:38:18.120
 and

00:38:18.120 --> 00:38:18.260
 the

00:38:18.260 --> 00:38:18.600
 only

00:38:18.600 --> 00:38:18.900
 thing

00:38:18.900 --> 00:38:19.320
 to do

00:38:19.320 --> 00:38:19.539
 with

00:38:19.539 --> 00:38:19.760
 it

00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:20.080
 is

00:38:20.080 --> 00:38:20.260
 to

00:38:20.260 --> 00:38:20.539
 throw

00:38:20.539 --> 00:38:20.680
 it

00:38:20.680 --> 00:38:20.920
 away

00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:21.080
 in

00:38:21.080 --> 00:38:21.220
 the

00:38:21.220 --> 00:38:21.600
 trash

00:38:21.600 --> 00:38:21.900
 heap

00:38:21.900 --> 00:38:22.340
 you

00:38:22.340 --> 00:38:22.680
 can't

00:38:22.680 --> 00:38:22.880
 even

00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:23.180
 use

00:38:23.180 --> 00:38:23.300
 it

00:38:23.300 --> 00:38:23.420
 in

00:38:23.420 --> 00:38:23.560
 your

00:38:23.560 --> 00:38:23.940
 fields

00:38:23.940 --> 00:38:24.120
 or

00:38:24.120 --> 00:38:24.260
 in

00:38:24.260 --> 00:38:24.420
 your

00:38:24.420 --> 00:38:25.120
 fertilizer

00:38:25.120 --> 00:38:25.720
 you

00:38:25.720 --> 00:38:25.940
 have

00:38:25.940 --> 00:38:26.100
 to

00:38:26.100 --> 00:38:26.340
 throw

00:38:26.340 --> 00:38:26.480
 it

00:38:26.480 --> 00:38:26.580
 in

 the

00:38:26.740 --> 00:38:27.400
 trash

00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:29.539
 because

00:38:29.539 --> 00:38:29.880
 it's

00:38:29.880 --> 00:38:30.660
 useless

00:38:30.659 --> 00:38:37.399
 and

00:38:37.399 --> 00:38:37.579
 this

00:38:37.579 --> 00:38:37.719
 is

00:38:37.719 --> 00:38:37.920
 what

00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:38.199
 Jesus

00:38:38.199 --> 00:38:38.559
 wants

00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:38.739
 to

00:38:38.739 --> 00:38:38.960
 bring

 home

00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:39.420
 to

00:38:39.420 --> 00:38:39.799
 us

00:38:39.799 --> 00:38:42.019
 if

00:38:42.019 --> 00:38:42.179
 we

00:38:42.179 --> 00:38:42.699
 claim

00:38:42.699 --> 00:38:43.159
 to

00:38:43.159 --> 00:38:43.279
 be

00:38:43.279 --> 00:38:43.420
 a

00:38:43.420 --> 00:38:43.759
 disciple

00:38:43.759 --> 00:38:44.019
 of

00:38:44.019 --> 00:38:44.420
 Jesus

00:38:44.420 --> 00:38:46.019
 that

00:38:46.019 --> 00:38:46.159
 is

00:38:46.159 --> 00:38:46.359
 a

00:38:46.359 --> 00:38:46.799
 follower

00:38:46.799 --> 00:38:48.639
 one

00:38:48.639 --> 00:38:48.779
 who

00:38:48.779 --> 00:38:48.899
 is

00:38:48.899 --> 00:38:49.420
 identified

00:38:49.420 --> 00:38:50.079
 with

00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:51.339
 you

00:38:51.339 --> 00:38:51.559
 guys

00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:51.759
 know

00:38:51.759 --> 00:38:51.980
 right

00:38:51.980 --> 00:38:52.199
 this

00:38:52.199 --> 00:38:52.319
 is

00:38:52.319 --> 00:38:52.440
 what

00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:52.539
 it

00:38:52.539 --> 00:38:52.679
 means

00:38:52.679 --> 00:38:52.819
 to

00:38:52.819 --> 00:38:52.940
 be

00:38:52.940 --> 00:38:53.059
 a

00:38:53.059 --> 00:38:53.379
 Christian

00:38:53.379 --> 00:38:53.839
 a

00:38:53.839 --> 00:38:54.099
 Christian

00:38:54.099 --> 00:38:54.259
 is

00:38:54.259 --> 00:38:54.420
 someone

00:38:54.420 --> 00:38:54.619
 who

00:38:54.619 --> 00:38:54.719
 is

00:38:54.719 --> 00:38:55.279
 identifying

00:38:55.279 --> 00:38:55.859
 themselves

00:38:55.859 --> 00:38:56.119
 with

00:38:56.119 --> 00:38:56.559
 Christ

00:38:56.559 --> 00:38:57.500
 this

00:38:57.500 --> 00:38:57.619
 is

00:38:57.619 --> 00:38:57.799
 why

00:38:57.799 --> 00:38:58.099
 Dietrich

00:38:58.099 --> 00:38:58.679
 Bonhoeffer

00:38:58.679 --> 00:38:58.859
 was

00:38:58.859 --> 00:38:59.119
 so

00:38:59.119 --> 00:38:59.879
 concerned

00:38:59.880 --> 00:39:00.619
 as

00:39:00.619 --> 00:39:00.920
 those

00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:01.079
 who

00:39:01.079 --> 00:39:01.320
 were

00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:02.039
 Christians

00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:02.340
 were

00:39:02.340 --> 00:39:02.940
 aligning

00:39:02.940 --> 00:39:03.460
 themselves

00:39:03.460 --> 00:39:03.720
 with

 national

00:39:04.140 --> 00:39:04.800
 socialism

00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:05.660
 as

00:39:05.660 --> 00:39:05.900
 their

 highest

00:39:06.300 --> 00:39:06.840
 loyalty

00:39:06.840 --> 00:39:09.619
 for

00:39:09.619 --> 00:39:10.019
 us

00:39:10.019 --> 00:39:10.960
 if

00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:11.099
 we

00:39:11.099 --> 00:39:11.260
 are

00:39:11.260 --> 00:39:12.059
 called

00:39:12.599 --> 00:39:13.059
 Christians

00:39:13.059 --> 00:39:14.280
 then

00:39:14.280 --> 00:39:14.440
 we

00:39:14.440 --> 00:39:14.760
 must

00:39:14.760 --> 00:39:15.220
 surrender

 all

 him

00:39:21.960 --> 00:39:22.119
 the

 they

00:39:57.840 --> 00:39:58.160
 find

 was

00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:17.960
 a

 constant

00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:18.980
 companion

00:41:18.980 --> 00:41:19.619
 for her

00:41:19.619 --> 00:41:20.619
 and yet

00:41:20.619 --> 00:41:22.199
 one night

 God speak

00:41:24.860 --> 00:41:25.339
 to her

 as a missionary

00:41:29.380 --> 00:41:31.079
 and the cost

00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:31.700
 was great

00:41:31.700 --> 00:41:32.380
 to all

00:41:32.380 --> 00:41:33.200

 continue

 the

00:41:37.160 --> 00:41:37.619
 ministry

00:41:37.619 --> 00:41:40.800
 but she

00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:41.220
 knew that

00:41:41.220 --> 00:41:41.740
 the most

00:41:41.740 --> 00:41:42.220
 important

00:41:42.220 --> 00:41:42.599
 thing

00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:42.980
 was to

00:41:42.980 --> 00:41:43.380
 obey

00:41:43.380 --> 00:41:43.820
 God's

00:41:43.820 --> 00:41:44.000
 will

00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:44.519
 for her

00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:45.519
 and she

00:41:45.519 --> 00:41:45.820
 said

00:41:45.820 --> 00:41:46.260
 nothing

00:41:46.260 --> 00:41:46.900
 is too

00:41:46.900 --> 00:41:47.320
 precious

00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:49.140
 for Jesus

00:41:49.139 --> 00:41:53.139
 so she

00:41:53.139 --> 00:41:53.559
 gave up

00:41:53.559 --> 00:41:53.799
 those

00:41:53.799 --> 00:41:54.019
 things

00:41:54.019 --> 00:41:54.400
 she went

00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:55.059
 to Japan

00:41:55.059 --> 00:41:55.759
 for a

00:41:55.759 --> 00:41:55.980
 couple

00:41:55.980 --> 00:41:56.420
 of years

00:41:56.420 --> 00:41:56.819
 and had

00:41:56.819 --> 00:41:57.099
 a very

00:41:57.099 --> 00:41:57.699
 difficult

00:41:57.699 --> 00:41:58.259
 ministry

00:41:58.259 --> 00:41:58.859
 experience

00:41:58.859 --> 00:41:59.219
 there

00:41:59.219 --> 00:42:00.299
 she came

00:42:00.299 --> 00:42:00.559
 home

00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:00.859
 and then

00:42:00.859 --> 00:42:01.279
 was

00:42:01.279 --> 00:42:01.799
 reassigned

00:42:01.799 --> 00:42:02.179
 she went

00:42:02.179 --> 00:42:02.759
 to India

00:42:02.759 --> 00:42:04.119
 found a

00:42:04.119 --> 00:42:04.940
 place of

00:42:04.940 --> 00:42:05.319
 ministry

00:42:05.319 --> 00:42:05.699
 among

00:42:05.699 --> 00:42:06.139
 women

00:42:06.139 --> 00:42:08.000
 but even

00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:08.480
 there

00:42:08.480 --> 00:42:09.579
 she found

00:42:09.579 --> 00:42:09.920
 herself

00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:10.759
 outside of

00:42:10.759 --> 00:42:11.239
 the normal

00:42:11.239 --> 00:42:11.659
 missions

00:42:11.659 --> 00:42:12.159
 patterns

00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:12.759
 outside of

00:42:12.759 --> 00:42:13.179
 the normal

00:42:13.179 --> 00:42:13.920
 missions

00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:14.920
 strategies

00:42:14.920 --> 00:42:15.900
 particularly

00:42:15.900 --> 00:42:16.879
 as young

00:42:16.879 --> 00:42:17.500
 girls who

00:42:17.500 --> 00:42:18.119
 were fleeing

00:42:18.119 --> 00:42:18.859
 from temple

00:42:18.859 --> 00:42:19.599
 prostitution

00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:19.940
 in the

00:42:19.940 --> 00:42:20.159
 Hindu

00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:20.599
 temples

00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:21.519
 started to

00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:21.819
 run to

00:42:21.819 --> 00:42:22.440
 her house

00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:23.199
 and say

00:42:23.199 --> 00:42:23.839
 please help

00:42:23.839 --> 00:42:24.099
 me

00:42:24.099 --> 00:42:25.759
 and she

00:42:25.759 --> 00:42:26.139
 began a

00:42:26.139 --> 00:42:26.960
 whole ministry

00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:28.119
 to these

00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:28.539
 girls

00:42:28.539 --> 00:42:30.139
 she was one

00:42:30.139 --> 00:42:30.359
 of the

00:42:30.359 --> 00:42:30.940
 original

00:42:30.940 --> 00:42:32.199
 warriors

00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:32.880
 against sex

00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:33.359
 trafficking

00:42:33.359 --> 00:42:34.480
 in the

00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:34.739
 Christian

00:42:34.739 --> 00:42:35.199
 church

00:42:35.199 --> 00:42:37.119
 she wouldn't

00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:37.359
 have called

00:42:37.359 --> 00:42:37.619
 it that

00:42:37.619 --> 00:42:38.000
 but that's

00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:38.319
 what she

00:42:38.319 --> 00:42:38.880
 was doing

00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:44.199
 she did

00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:44.579
 this for

00:42:44.579 --> 00:42:44.940
 the rest

00:42:44.940 --> 00:42:45.239
 of her

00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:45.659
 life

00:42:45.659 --> 00:42:47.159
 ten years

00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:47.539
 into her

00:42:47.539 --> 00:42:47.900
 ministry

00:42:47.900 --> 00:42:48.460
 in India

00:42:48.460 --> 00:42:48.940
 she had

00:42:48.940 --> 00:42:49.500
 a fall

00:42:49.500 --> 00:42:50.619
 she broke

00:42:50.619 --> 00:42:51.300
 her spine

00:42:51.300 --> 00:42:51.780
 and her

00:42:51.780 --> 00:42:52.079
 hip

00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:53.240
 she was

00:42:53.240 --> 00:42:53.700
 bedridden

00:42:53.700 --> 00:42:54.300
 for the rest

00:42:54.300 --> 00:42:54.579
 of her

00:42:54.579 --> 00:42:55.019
 ministry

00:42:55.019 --> 00:42:56.519
 literally

00:42:56.519 --> 00:42:58.880
 and yet

00:42:58.880 --> 00:42:59.599
 she stayed

00:42:59.599 --> 00:43:01.079
 for another

00:43:01.079 --> 00:43:01.860
 15-20

00:43:01.860 --> 00:43:02.420
 years

00:43:02.420 --> 00:43:03.860
 she died

00:43:03.860 --> 00:43:04.460
 where she

00:43:04.460 --> 00:43:05.420
 ministered

00:43:05.420 --> 00:43:06.119
 she's buried

00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:06.420
 there

00:43:06.420 --> 00:43:07.019
 today

00:43:12.980 --> 00:43:13.539
 about her

00:43:13.539 --> 00:43:13.980
 attitude

00:43:13.980 --> 00:43:16.199
 with all

00:43:16.199 --> 00:43:16.579
 her heart

00:43:16.579 --> 00:43:17.139
 she determined

00:43:17.139 --> 00:43:17.599
 to please

00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:17.920
 him

00:43:17.920 --> 00:43:18.920
 who had

00:43:18.920 --> 00:43:19.219
 chosen

00:43:19.219 --> 00:43:19.719
 her

00:43:19.719 --> 00:43:20.179
 to be

00:43:20.179 --> 00:43:20.400
 his

00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:20.740
 soldier

00:43:20.740 --> 00:43:22.199
 she was

00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:22.740
 awed

00:43:22.740 --> 00:43:23.400
 by the

00:43:23.400 --> 00:43:23.900
 privilege

00:43:23.900 --> 00:43:25.619
 she accepted

00:43:25.619 --> 00:43:27.079
 the disciplines

00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:27.860
 loneliness

00:43:27.860 --> 00:43:28.539
 was one of

00:43:28.539 --> 00:43:28.740
 those

00:43:28.740 --> 00:43:30.300
 how the

00:43:30.300 --> 00:43:30.559
 modern

00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:32.280
 young person

00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:32.820
 always wants

00:43:32.820 --> 00:43:33.200
 to know

00:43:33.200 --> 00:43:33.840
 did she

00:43:33.840 --> 00:43:34.980
 handle it

00:43:34.980 --> 00:43:36.019
 Amy

00:43:36.019 --> 00:43:36.579
 Carmichael

00:43:36.579 --> 00:43:37.039
 would not

00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:37.920
 have had

00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:38.579
 the slightest

00:43:38.579 --> 00:43:39.180
 idea

00:43:39.180 --> 00:43:39.620
 what the

00:43:39.620 --> 00:43:40.099
 questioner

00:43:40.099 --> 00:43:40.740
 was talking

00:43:40.740 --> 00:43:41.180
 about

00:43:41.180 --> 00:43:42.099
 handle

00:43:42.099 --> 00:43:42.860
 loneliness

00:43:42.860 --> 00:43:44.320
 why

00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:45.220
 it is a part

00:43:45.220 --> 00:43:45.740
 of the cost

00:43:45.740 --> 00:43:46.320
 of obedience

00:43:46.320 --> 00:43:47.079
 of course

00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:48.440
 everybody is

00:43:48.440 --> 00:43:49.280
 lonely in some

00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:49.500
 way

00:43:49.500 --> 00:43:49.980
 the single

00:43:49.980 --> 00:43:50.480

00:43:52.240 --> 00:43:52.860
 in certain

00:43:52.860 --> 00:43:53.720
 obvious ways

00:43:53.720 --> 00:43:54.180
 the school

00:43:54.180 --> 00:43:54.480
 teacher

00:43:54.480 --> 00:43:54.920
 the mother

00:43:55.960 --> 00:43:57.180
 in others

00:43:57.180 --> 00:44:01.260
 but as Amy

00:44:01.260 --> 00:44:01.660
 wrote

00:44:01.660 --> 00:44:02.519
 when I consider

00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:03.120
 the cross

00:44:03.120 --> 00:44:03.760
 of Christ

 anything I do

00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:06.579
 be called

00:44:06.579 --> 00:44:07.519
 sacrifice

00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:12.579
 she knew

00:44:12.579 --> 00:44:13.239
 what God

00:44:13.239 --> 00:44:13.579
 had made

00:44:13.579 --> 00:44:13.900
 her in

00:44:13.900 --> 00:44:14.360
 Christ

00:44:14.360 --> 00:44:17.619
 and she

00:44:17.619 --> 00:44:18.039
 gave all

00:44:18.039 --> 00:44:18.400
 that she

00:44:18.400 --> 00:44:18.739
 had

00:44:18.739 --> 00:44:19.679
 to live

00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:20.039
 for his

00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:20.500
 glory

00:44:20.500 --> 00:44:24.400
 some of

00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:24.759
 you may

00:44:24.759 --> 00:44:25.239
 be called

00:44:25.239 --> 00:44:26.099
 to give up

00:44:26.099 --> 00:44:26.699
 all to go

00:44:26.699 --> 00:44:27.360
 somewhere else

00:44:27.360 --> 00:44:27.860
 to serve

00:44:27.860 --> 00:44:28.099
 him

00:44:28.099 --> 00:44:29.559
 in a

00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:29.980
 missions

00:44:29.980 --> 00:44:31.119
 manner

00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:33.340
 many of

00:44:33.340 --> 00:44:33.699
 you will

00:44:33.699 --> 00:44:34.219
 be called

00:44:34.219 --> 00:44:34.900
 to stay

00:44:34.900 --> 00:44:35.300
 where you

00:44:35.300 --> 00:44:35.639
 are

00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:36.579
 and to

00:44:36.579 --> 00:44:36.940
 live for

00:44:36.940 --> 00:44:37.300
 him

00:44:37.300 --> 00:44:38.260
 in a

00:44:38.260 --> 00:44:38.700
 missions

00:44:38.700 --> 00:44:39.480
 manner

00:44:39.480 --> 00:44:40.960
 for you

00:44:40.960 --> 00:44:41.480
 to think

00:44:41.480 --> 00:44:41.880
 about

00:44:41.880 --> 00:44:42.900
 the

00:44:42.900 --> 00:44:43.480
 wholehearted

00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:44.039
 commitment

00:44:44.039 --> 00:44:44.960
 sometimes

00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:45.600
 it's actually

00:44:45.600 --> 00:44:46.200
 easier

00:44:46.200 --> 00:44:46.920
 to be a

00:44:46.920 --> 00:44:47.160
 missionary

00:44:47.160 --> 00:44:48.160
 because your

00:44:48.160 --> 00:44:48.820
 whole life

00:44:48.820 --> 00:44:49.300
 and job

00:44:49.300 --> 00:44:49.980
 is oriented

00:44:49.980 --> 00:44:50.800
 towards this

00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:51.620
 I feel like

00:44:51.620 --> 00:44:52.140
 this sometimes

00:44:52.140 --> 00:44:52.780
 as a pastor

00:44:52.780 --> 00:44:53.840
 it's very easy

00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:54.360
 for me

00:44:54.360 --> 00:44:55.360
 and I look

00:44:55.360 --> 00:44:55.820
 at some of

00:44:55.820 --> 00:44:56.240
 you and I

00:44:56.240 --> 00:44:56.660
 know how

00:44:56.660 --> 00:44:57.200
 challenging

00:44:57.200 --> 00:44:58.060
 it can be

00:44:58.060 --> 00:44:58.860
 and yet I

00:44:58.860 --> 00:44:59.240
 want you

00:44:59.240 --> 00:44:59.680
 to hear

00:44:59.680 --> 00:45:00.220
 the clear

00:45:00.220 --> 00:45:00.620
 call

00:45:00.620 --> 00:45:01.280
 of Jesus

00:45:01.280 --> 00:45:05.140
 make him

00:45:05.140 --> 00:45:06.440
 first

00:45:06.440 --> 00:45:09.220
 if you

00:45:09.220 --> 00:45:09.539
 love

00:45:09.539 --> 00:45:09.940
 anything

00:45:09.940 --> 00:45:10.260
 more

00:45:10.260 --> 00:45:10.460
 than

00:45:10.460 --> 00:45:10.820
 him

00:45:10.820 --> 00:45:11.380
 you

00:45:11.380 --> 00:45:11.820
 cannot

00:45:11.820 --> 00:45:12.360
 be

00:45:12.360 --> 00:45:13.099
 his

00:45:13.099 --> 00:45:13.639
 disciple

00:45:13.639 --> 00:45:19.500
 when I

00:45:19.500 --> 00:45:19.960
 survey the

00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:20.800
 wondrous cross

00:45:20.800 --> 00:45:21.639
 on which

00:45:21.639 --> 00:45:22.139
 the prince

00:45:22.139 --> 00:45:22.840
 of glory

00:45:22.840 --> 00:45:23.300
 died

00:45:23.300 --> 00:45:24.780
 my richest

00:45:24.780 --> 00:45:25.260
 gain

00:45:25.260 --> 00:45:26.079
 I count

00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:26.780
 but loss

00:45:26.780 --> 00:45:28.000
 and poor

00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:28.480
 contempt

00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:28.920
 on all

00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:29.639
 my pride

00:45:29.639 --> 00:45:32.779
 the end

00:45:32.779 --> 00:45:33.059
 of that

00:45:33.059 --> 00:45:33.339
 hymn

00:45:33.339 --> 00:45:33.659
 says

00:45:33.659 --> 00:45:34.139
 love

00:45:34.139 --> 00:45:34.940
 so amazing

00:45:34.940 --> 00:45:35.960
 so divine

00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:37.159
 demands

00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:38.019
 my soul

00:45:38.019 --> 00:45:39.179
 my life

00:45:39.179 --> 00:45:40.059
 my all

00:45:40.059 --> 00:45:42.420
 friends

00:45:42.420 --> 00:45:42.920
 this is what

00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:43.779
 Jesus calls

00:45:43.779 --> 00:45:45.199
 he calls

00:45:45.199 --> 00:45:45.659
 us to

00:45:45.659 --> 00:45:46.739
 faith

00:45:46.739 --> 00:45:47.239
 and belief

00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:47.879
 in him

00:45:47.879 --> 00:45:49.219
 and to

00:45:49.219 --> 00:45:49.940
 follow him

00:45:49.940 --> 00:45:50.879
 wholeheartedly

00:45:50.879 --> 00:45:54.119
 we're gonna go

00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:54.639
 to prayer

00:45:54.639 --> 00:45:55.099
 and as we

00:45:55.099 --> 00:45:55.599
 go to prayer

00:45:55.599 --> 00:45:56.059
 the music

00:45:56.059 --> 00:45:56.400
 team will

00:45:56.400 --> 00:45:56.779
 come up

00:45:56.779 --> 00:45:57.000
 but I

00:45:57.000 --> 00:45:57.299
 want to

00:45:57.299 --> 00:45:58.039
 invite you

00:45:58.039 --> 00:45:58.460
 to spend

00:45:58.460 --> 00:45:58.900
 a minute

00:45:58.900 --> 00:46:00.340
 is the

00:46:00.340 --> 00:46:00.820
 Holy Spirit

00:46:00.820 --> 00:46:01.380
 this morning

00:46:01.380 --> 00:46:01.739
 putting

00:46:01.739 --> 00:46:03.019
 his finger

00:46:03.019 --> 00:46:03.759
 on something

00:46:03.759 --> 00:46:04.279
 in your

00:46:04.279 --> 00:46:04.719
 life

00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:05.659
 today

00:46:05.659 --> 00:46:07.860
 is he

00:46:07.860 --> 00:46:08.099
 saying

00:46:08.099 --> 00:46:08.440
 will you

00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:08.860
 surrender

00:46:08.860 --> 00:46:09.320
 this

00:46:09.320 --> 00:46:09.900
 to me

00:46:09.900 --> 00:46:10.699
 will you

00:46:10.699 --> 00:46:10.940
 give

00:46:10.940 --> 00:46:11.440
 this

00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:12.159
 to me

00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:12.779
 maybe

00:46:12.779 --> 00:46:13.019
 you're

00:46:13.019 --> 00:46:13.199
 here

00:46:13.199 --> 00:46:13.420
 this

00:46:13.420 --> 00:46:13.699
 morning

00:46:13.699 --> 00:46:13.900
 and

00:46:13.900 --> 00:46:14.360
 you've

00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:14.599
 never

00:46:14.599 --> 00:46:15.119
 actually

00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:15.619
 said

00:46:15.619 --> 00:46:16.320
 Jesus

00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:16.699
 here's

00:46:16.699 --> 00:46:16.880
 my

00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:17.139
 whole

00:46:17.139 --> 00:46:17.619
 life

00:46:17.619 --> 00:46:20.400
 maybe

00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:20.619
 you

00:46:20.619 --> 00:46:20.860
 haven't

00:46:20.860 --> 00:46:21.119
 ever

00:46:21.119 --> 00:46:21.599
 surrendered

00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:22.239
 to him

00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:22.800
 in faith

00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:23.920
 maybe

00:46:23.920 --> 00:46:24.199
 he's

00:46:24.199 --> 00:46:24.500
 calling

00:46:24.500 --> 00:46:24.659
 you

00:46:24.659 --> 00:46:25.019
 to do

00:46:25.019 --> 00:46:25.300
 that

00:46:25.300 --> 00:46:25.559
 this

00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:25.880
 morning

00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:26.559
 so

00:46:26.559 --> 00:46:26.719
 we're

00:46:26.719 --> 00:46:26.860
 just

00:46:26.860 --> 00:46:27.019
 going

00:46:27.019 --> 00:46:27.099
 to

00:46:27.099 --> 00:46:27.300
 spend

00:46:27.300 --> 00:46:27.480
 a

00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:27.659
 few

00:46:27.659 --> 00:46:28.019
 minutes

00:46:28.019 --> 00:46:28.259
 in

00:46:28.259 --> 00:46:29.039
 quietness

00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:29.940
 and

00:46:29.940 --> 00:46:30.159
 then

00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:31.099
 I will

00:46:31.099 --> 00:46:31.420
 pray

00:46:31.420 --> 00:46:31.679
 and

00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:31.960
 we'll

00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:32.440
 transition

00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:33.199

00:46:33.199 --> 00:46:33.500
 singing

00:46:33.500 --> 00:46:33.719
 so

00:46:33.719 --> 00:46:34.019
 let's

00:46:34.019 --> 00:46:34.300
