Episode Highlights
02:14 - God is on the side of the humble. He gives grace to the humble and resists the proud. So, when we talk about giants, naturally, I think about David and Goliath. And David just seemingly a runt in the eyes of Goliath, but he recognizes that his power is not in the sword, or the spear. It is certainly not in Saul's armor or the identity of being a king. But his power is in his intimate relationship with the Lord. Cultivate it behind the scenes in the darkness of worship and prayer and faith stewardship where nobody's looking, and he draws his strength from that.
07:03 - I'm so grateful that the Lord used pain to awaken me and to bring me out of this coma of identity, because my identity was this pastor of people who are coming into the building, and I needed to come outside the building.
16:42 - Justice is God's idea, first of all. It's not the Black Lives Matters movement and organization does not have the market on justice. God is the author of justice, and justice is the cousin of reconciliation. It's reconciling all things that are right, and that are broken back to the way they once were. So, justice begins with God.
