when Minister Reggie spoke to the when Minister Reggie spoke to the parents to let them know that they are parents to let them know that they are parents to let them know that they are essentially stewards over the life of a essentially stewards over the life of a essentially stewards over the life of a child you don't really own that child child you don't really own that child child you don't really own that child and I know we and I know we and I know we say I brought you into this world and I can take you world and I can take you out we got on recording now out we got on recording now out we got on recording now [Laughter] [Laughter] [Laughter] but the reality is but the reality is but the reality is [Music] [Music] [Music] that we that we that we are are are stewards really possessors of nothing stewards really possessors of nothing stewards really possessors of nothing because we don't take anything with because we don't take anything with because we don't take anything with us when we leave we leave the way we us when we leave we leave the way we us when we leave we leave the way we came in and that's the reality another thing in and that's the reality another thing I want to point out if I I want to point out if I I want to point out if I can the important of can the important of can the important of family the importance of family the importance of family the importance of community we don't grow in community we don't grow in community we don't grow in isolation we only grow in isolation we only grow in isolation we only grow in community and I read somewhere where it community and I read somewhere where it community and I read somewhere where it said forsake not the assembling of said forsake not the assembling of said forsake not the assembling of yourselves together as the manner of yourselves together as the manner of yourselves together as the manner of some are that was written 2,000 years some are that was written 2,000 years some are that was written 2,000 years ago before Co before ago before Co before ago before Co before Co which meant that even then in the Co which meant that even then in the Co which meant that even then in the life of the early life of the early life of the early Church Believers were not understanding Church Believers were not understanding Church Believers were not understanding and appreciating the importance of this

and appreciating the importance of this and appreciating the importance of this gathering this coming together and of gathering this coming together and of gathering this coming together and of course course course Co and pop culture MH has influenced and Co and pop culture MH has influenced and Co and pop culture MH has influenced and impacted that but you see in it's in the impacted that but you see in it's in the impacted that but you see in it's in the context of context of context of community people with shared values community people with shared values community people with shared values shared visions and dreams and Journeys shared visions and dreams and Journeys shared visions and dreams and Journeys and ups and and ups and and ups and downs around the centrality of our downs around the centrality of our downs around the centrality of our relationship with Christ it is in that relationship with Christ it is in that relationship with Christ it is in that context that we really grow Minister context that we really grow Minister context that we really grow Minister Reggie again started listing names of Reggie again started listing names of Reggie again started listing names of men that he men that he men that he watched that helped him become a better watched that helped him become a better watched that helped him become a better man to understand what responsibility is man to understand what responsibility is man to understand what responsibility is and all of the characteristics of and all of the characteristics of and all of the characteristics of manhood and fatherhood are all about but manhood and fatherhood are all about but manhood and fatherhood are all about but he could only experience that in he could only experience that in he could only experience that in community so it's within the community community so it's within the community community so it's within the community that we learn that we grow that we have that we learn that we grow that we have that we learn that we grow that we have models not just of manhood but of models not just of manhood but of models not just of manhood but of Womanhood of godliness Etc so I couldn't Womanhood of godliness Etc so I couldn't Womanhood of godliness Etc so I couldn't help but sit and watch all that was help but sit and watch all that was help but sit and watch all that was happening and think about how important happening and think about how important happening and think about how important Community Community Community is you and I were is you and I were is you and I were talking uh on the away he's driving in talking uh on the away he's driving in talking uh on the away he's driving in his car somewhere along the road and I'm his car somewhere along the road and I'm his car somewhere along the road and I'm driving in my car and we're talking driving in my car and we're talking driving in my car and we're talking about the service and talking about uh about the service and talking about uh about the service and talking about uh things that we're going to anticipate or

so I put three things on the board and I share with you out of the Overflow and I share with you out of the Overflow and I share with you out of the Overflow of my own personal studies and of my own personal studies and of my own personal studies and devotion um people ask me well you know devotion um people ask me well you know devotion um people ask me well you know how long did it take you to prepare for how long did it take you to prepare for how long did it take you to prepare for that message all my that message all my that message all my life because essentially you benefit life because essentially you benefit life because essentially you benefit from the aggregate of my spiritual from the aggregate of my spiritual from the aggregate of my spiritual journey growth journey growth journey growth experiences uh uh Etc and as I think experiences uh uh Etc and as I think experiences uh uh Etc and as I think about where we are as a society and the about where we are as a society and the about where we are as a society and the importance of our presence as Salt and importance of our presence as Salt and importance of our presence as Salt and Light I also think about the importance Light I also think about the importance Light I also think about the importance of our ability to clearly articulate of our ability to clearly articulate of our ability to clearly articulate what we believe and why we believe what what we believe and why we believe what what we believe and why we believe what we believe that is just so so important we believe that is just so so important we believe that is just so so important so when I think about human so when I think about human so when I think about human history in history in history in general human history is an intricate general human history is an intricate general human history is an intricate weave of individual threads their threads their actions their their achievements their achievements their achievements their beliefs and their beliefs and their beliefs and their failures let me reorganize that I'll say failures let me reorganize that I'll say failures let me reorganize that I'll say it again human history is an intricate it again human history is an intricate it again human history is an intricate weave of individual weave of individual weave of individual threads and what I mean by individuals

threads and what I mean by individuals threads and what I mean by individuals threads I can switch that the threads of threads I can switch that the threads of threads I can switch that the threads of individual lives mhm in fact better said individual lives mhm in fact better said individual lives mhm in fact better said an intricate intricate intricate an intricate intricate intricate an intricate intricate intricate weave of the thread of individual lives weave of the thread of individual lives weave of the thread of individual lives so each individual life is a so each individual life is a so each individual life is a thread in human thread in human thread in human history each individual life is a thread history each individual life is a thread history each individual life is a thread in human in human in human history you are a history you are a history you are a thread in the intricate weave of human thread in the intricate weave of human thread in the intricate weave of human history now say well I'm just a history now say well I'm just a history now say well I'm just a thread thread thread don't belittle a don't belittle a don't belittle a thread because if you find the right thread because if you find the right thread because if you find the right thread and pull on it yep you can thread and pull on it yep you can thread and pull on it yep you can unravel an entire unravel an entire unravel an entire sweater sometimes a whole outfit how sweater sometimes a whole outfit how sweater sometimes a whole outfit how manyan you know what I'm talking talking manyan you know what I'm talking talking manyan you know what I'm talking talking about so you cannot diminish the value about so you cannot diminish the value about so you cannot diminish the value of a thread but there are billions of of a thread but there are billions of of a thread but there are billions of people on the planet now and throughout people on the planet now and throughout people on the planet now and throughout history many many people so many many history many many people so many many history many many people so many many threads and when you bring them together threads and when you bring them together threads and when you bring them together they create this this pattern that which they create this this pattern that which they create this this pattern that which is essentially a tapestry of time and is essentially a tapestry of time and is essentially a tapestry of time and influence from generation to generation influence from generation to generation influence from generation to generation so when when you think of human history so when when you think of human history so when when you think of human history and remember what we were talking about and remember what we were talking about and remember what we were talking about if I may if I may if I may extract something from part one of

extract something from part one of extract something from part one of wilderness how we perceive things wilderness how we perceive things wilderness how we perceive things determines how we experience determines how we experience determines how we experience them right how we perceive things them right how we perceive things them right how we perceive things determines how we experience them so how determines how we experience them so how determines how we experience them so how we perceive history how we perceived Our we perceive history how we perceived Our we perceive history how we perceived Our lives our our ourselves our relationship lives our our ourselves our relationship lives our our ourselves our relationship Etc you know and perception is how we Etc you know and perception is how we Etc you know and perception is how we interpret perception is how we interpret interpret perception is how we interpret interpret perception is how we interpret things so however you interpret things so however you interpret things so however you interpret circumstances situations and realities circumstances situations and realities circumstances situations and realities around you and events that will around you and events that will around you and events that will determine how you experience it how you determine how you experience it how you determine how you experience it how you interpret God determines how you interpret God determines how you interpret God determines how you experience God if you think that God if experience God if you think that God if experience God if you think that God if you interpret God as this this angry you interpret God as this this angry you interpret God as this this angry individual is waiting to bash you over individual is waiting to bash you over individual is waiting to bash you over the head with with you know every time the head with with you know every time the head with with you know every time you sin all right then you're going to you sin all right then you're going to you sin all right then you're going to experience God like that and there are experience God like that and there are experience God like that and there are people who have experienced God like people who have experienced God like people who have experienced God like that because this is what they were that because this is what they were that because this is what they were exposed to and they left the church they exposed to and they left the church they exposed to and they left the church they turned against God they turned against turned against God they turned against turned against God they turned against religion against faith because of an religion against faith because of an religion against faith because of an erroneous representation of God so how erroneous representation of God so how erroneous representation of God so how we interpret things influences how we we interpret things influences how we we interpret things influences how we experience it say that again how we experience it say that again how we experience it say that again how we interpret church I don't want to go interpret church I don't want to go interpret church I don't want to go church church is a bunch of Hypocrites church church is a bunch of Hypocrites church church is a bunch of Hypocrites blah blah blah how many you ever heard blah blah blah how many you ever heard blah blah blah how many you ever heard of that kind of before right so we're of that kind of before right so we're of that kind of before right so we're interpreting Church in a certain way interpreting Church in a certain way interpreting Church in a certain way that's influencing how we experience that's influencing how we experience that's influencing how we experience church church is filled with people church church is filled with people church church is filled with people people who are on a journey people who people who are on a journey people who people who are on a journey people who are once broken and wounded detached

are once broken and wounded detached are once broken and wounded detached from God and now from God and now from God and now reconnected and are receiving the life reconnected and are receiving the life reconnected and are receiving the life of God that's creating transformation in of God that's creating transformation in of God that's creating transformation in our hearts our minds our emotions and our hearts our minds our emotions and our hearts our minds our emotions and our experiences so human history if I our experiences so human history if I our experiences so human history if I can just adjust the lens through which can just adjust the lens through which can just adjust the lens through which you see and understand history at large you see and understand history at large you see and understand history at large because you are how many realize you're because you are how many realize you're because you are how many realize you're a part of History absolutely you are a part of History absolutely you are a part of History absolutely you are part of History and although you are a part of History and although you are a part of History and although you are a thread don't think of that as being thread don't think of that as being thread don't think of that as being small or small or small or insignificant again you know I've been insignificant again you know I've been insignificant again you know I've been there while I pulled on a thread and there while I pulled on a thread and there while I pulled on a thread and everything started coming apart just one everything started coming apart just one everything started coming apart just one thread turn to your neighbor say you're thread turn to your neighbor say you're thread turn to your neighbor say you're a thread but you're significant so so human history is an is significant so so human history is an is an intricate weave and when you think an intricate weave and when you think an intricate weave and when you think about Weave you're thinking about about Weave you're thinking about about Weave you're thinking about twisting and turning to avoid obst twisting and turning to avoid obst twisting and turning to avoid obst struction but moving in a definite struction but moving in a definite struction but moving in a definite Direction you get Direction you get Direction you get that in a fight you're you're bobbing that in a fight you're you're bobbing that in a fight you're you're bobbing and what weaving weaving what are you and what weaving weaving what are you and what weaving weaving what are you doing you are twisting and turning to doing you are twisting and turning to doing you are twisting and turning to avoid getting hit all right but in in in avoid getting hit all right but in in in avoid getting hit all right but in in in a pattern the the whole idea of weaving a pattern the the whole idea of weaving a pattern the the whole idea of weaving is twisting and turning to get through is twisting and turning to get through is twisting and turning to get through obstructions that are there in order to obstructions that are there in order to obstructions that are there in order to go in and out and create the continuity go in and out and create the continuity go in and out and create the continuity of that pattern so human history is an of that pattern so human history is an of that pattern so human history is an intricate weave of intricate weave of intricate weave of individual or let me change that of

individual or let me change that of individual or let me change that of threads of individual lives let me threads of individual lives let me threads of individual lives let me change that on here all right so now you change that on here all right so now you change that on here all right so now you know how my mind works I'm constantly know how my mind works I'm constantly know how my mind works I'm constantly reflecting even while I'm talking on reflecting even while I'm talking on reflecting even while I'm talking on what I'm saying and how I'm saying it life but but here's what's important all life but but here's what's important all right so you are a thread you are an right so you are a thread you are an right so you are a thread you are an individual life you are a thread that's individual life you are a thread that's individual life you are a thread that's part of the intricate weave of human part of the intricate weave of human part of the intricate weave of human history history history but what's significant and What Makes but what's significant and What Makes but what's significant and What Makes You You You significant significant significant are your beliefs beliefs your failures so that thread you failures so that thread you is made up of

what because you are passing these what because you are passing these On to the Next Generation how many know your actions Generation how many know your actions have have have effect how many know your effect how many know your effect how many know your beliefs have effect how know your beliefs have effect how know your beliefs have effect how know your achievements have achievements have achievements have effect your effect your effect your failures have effect because each one of failures have effect because each one of failures have effect because each one of us is a combination of our things things influences the effect that we have from influences the effect that we have from influences the effect that we have from generation to to generation to to generation to to generation you are a thread so life or generation you are a thread so life or generation you are a thread so life or which which means Legacy because of what which which means Legacy because of what which which means Legacy because of what we want to talk about we want to talk about we want to talk about today and that's why I called pastoral today and that's why I called pastoral today and that's why I called pastoral and I said you know we haven't and I said you know we haven't and I said you know we haven't ministered together in in a while let's ministered together in in a while let's ministered together in in a while let's let's let's just do let's let's just do let's let's just do this this this Legacy essentially is is is a tapestry of of time and influence it's a tapestry of influence it's a tapestry of time time time and influence and when we step back and and

influence and when we step back and and look at human history or step back and look at human history or step back and look at human history or step back and look at our lives or look at our family look at our lives or look at our family look at our lives or look at our family what are we seeing we are seeing all the individuals seeing we are seeing all the individuals that we know it's part of our family and that we know it's part of our family and that we know it's part of our family and they're a they're a they're a thread and they're going in a particular thread and they're going in a particular thread and they're going in a particular direction and they're twists and turns direction and they're twists and turns direction and they're twists and turns along the way but all part of the along the way but all part of the along the way but all part of the pattern that's being pattern that's being pattern that's being created we're making decisions we're created we're making decisions we're created we're making decisions we're taking taking taking actions we are developing certain actions we are developing certain actions we are developing certain beliefs those beliefs expand over beliefs those beliefs expand over beliefs those beliefs expand over time we are achieving things and we're time we are achieving things and we're time we are achieving things and we're experiencing experiencing experiencing failures and I know you'd like to cut failures and I know you'd like to cut failures and I know you'd like to cut this part out right turn your neighbor say neighbor right turn your neighbor say neighbor neighbor failure failure is the womb is neighbor failure failure is the womb is neighbor failure failure is the womb is the womb for success for the womb for success for the womb for success for Success try that one more time that Success try that one more time that Success try that one more time that needs to needs to needs to marinate say it with me failure is the marinate say it with me failure is the marinate say it with me failure is the womb for womb for womb for Success cannot tell tell you how many Success cannot tell tell you how many Success cannot tell tell you how many successes have been born out of successes have been born out of successes have been born out of failure how many of you experience failure how many of you experience failure how many of you experience success born out of success born out of success born out of failure because failure can motivate you failure because failure can motivate you failure because failure can motivate you to get it to get it to get it right it can inspire you to dig deeper

right it can inspire you to dig deeper right it can inspire you to dig deeper to bring out the best of yourself in to bring out the best of yourself in to bring out the best of yourself in response to the challenge to the task at response to the challenge to the task at response to the challenge to the task at hand and I don't know how many times you hand and I don't know how many times you hand and I don't know how many times you had to dig deep but I will tell you as had to dig deep but I will tell you as had to dig deep but I will tell you as you move from one level of life to you move from one level of life to you move from one level of life to another all right you have to learn how another all right you have to learn how another all right you have to learn how to dig to dig to dig deeper because life becomes deeper deeper because life becomes deeper deeper because life becomes deeper relationships become relationships become relationships become deeper and that's why reflection daily deeper and that's why reflection daily deeper and that's why reflection daily reflection on your actions your beliefs reflection on your actions your beliefs reflection on your actions your beliefs your achievements and your failures will your achievements and your failures will your achievements and your failures will help to shape you into a better person a help to shape you into a better person a help to shape you into a better person a stronger person a more Savvy person a stronger person a more Savvy person a stronger person a more Savvy person a more aware person that makes for a more aware person that makes for a more aware person that makes for a successful successful successful person so this is not person so this is not person so this is not just me looking at human history the just me looking at human history the just me looking at human history the grand picture but it's also grand picture but it's also grand picture but it's also Daily it's what you go through on a Daily it's what you go through on a Daily it's what you go through on a daily basis what you believe about daily basis what you believe about daily basis what you believe about yourself what you believe about yourself what you believe about yourself what you believe about God and just going back to some of the God and just going back to some of the God and just going back to some of the things that we started talking about how things that we started talking about how things that we started talking about how many heard of this love God with all many heard of this love God with all many heard of this love God with all your heart soul mind and strength how your heart soul mind and strength how your heart soul mind and strength how many heard many heard many heard that few people didn't hear that yet that few people didn't hear that yet that few people didn't hear that yet you're scaring me folks how many heard you're scaring me folks how many heard you're scaring me folks how many heard love God with

love God with love God with all your heart mind and strength so your all your heart mind and strength so your all your heart mind and strength so your primary relationship is vertical primary relationship is vertical primary relationship is vertical and that's your relationship with God in and that's your relationship with God in and that's your relationship with God in fact every other relationship that you fact every other relationship that you fact every other relationship that you have other than God occupies a have other than God occupies a have other than God occupies a horizontal plane which means you should horizontal plane which means you should horizontal plane which means you should never worship any relationship on a never worship any relationship on a never worship any relationship on a horizontal plane there's only one horizontal plane there's only one horizontal plane there's only one relationship that's 90° and that's relationship that's 90° and that's relationship that's 90° and that's God God God Amen y Amen y Amen y [Laughter] [Laughter] [Laughter] way that's the only vertical way that's the only vertical way that's the only vertical relationship that you should have every relationship that you should have every relationship that you should have every other relationship in this 90° angle is other relationship in this 90° angle is other relationship in this 90° angle is horizontal it's a horizontal plane horizontal it's a horizontal plane horizontal it's a horizontal plane that's how we look at it but notice the that's how we look at it but notice the that's how we look at it but notice the second part of that love God right love second part of that love God right love second part of that love God right love God with all your heart mind soul and God with all your heart mind soul and God with all your heart mind soul and strength love your strength love your strength love your neighbor as your self now that sounds neighbor as your self now that sounds neighbor as your self now that sounds good depending upon how you love good depending upon how you love good depending upon how you love you because the way I see some people you because the way I see some people you because the way I see some people love themselves God don't love me please some people don't like themselves please some people don't like themselves they're angry with themselves they're they're angry with themselves they're they're angry with themselves they're hurt and broken and wounded and and and hurt and broken and wounded and and and hurt and broken and wounded and and and and it's all caught up in that self and and it's all caught up in that self and and it's all caught up in that self and here's the problem when you try to love here's the problem when you try to love here's the problem when you try to love out of that

self horizontally only you have self horizontally only you have nothing vertical nothing vertical nothing vertical coming into your soul as an anchor and coming into your soul as an anchor and coming into your soul as an anchor and here's what's happening in society we here's what's happening in society we here's what's happening in society we are trying to love are trying to love are trying to love others as we love ourselves without others as we love ourselves without others as we love ourselves without loving God are you hearing God are you hearing me so your ability to love self and love me so your ability to love self and love me so your ability to love self and love others depend is directly proportionate others depend is directly proportionate others depend is directly proportionate to your to your to your relationship with God because it is God relationship with God because it is God relationship with God because it is God who provides the anchor for our soul who provides the anchor for our soul who provides the anchor for our soul that protects us from what we can become that protects us from what we can become that protects us from what we can become when our Humanity runs out because when when our Humanity runs out because when when our Humanity runs out because when our Humanity runs out we tend to give in our Humanity runs out we tend to give in our Humanity runs out we tend to give in to the forces of fear and greed and lust to the forces of fear and greed and lust to the forces of fear and greed and lust and fame and power and all of the other and fame and power and all of the other and fame and power and all of the other things that Society offers us apart from things that Society offers us apart from things that Society offers us apart from God it's false narratives it's false God it's false narratives it's false God it's false narratives it's false counterfeit loves counterfeit values I I did something the other day values I I did something the other day and and maybe I'll get to share it I and and maybe I'll get to share it I and and maybe I'll get to share it I don't know I I'll have to share yeah you don't know I I'll have to share yeah you don't know I I'll have to share yeah you know what it'll be it'll be spiritual know what it'll be it'll be spiritual know what it'll be it'll be spiritual warfare 3 did I do three warfare 3 did I do three warfare 3 did I do three yet it'll be I sat back and said okay if

yet it'll be I sat back and said okay if yet it'll be I sat back and said okay if I was the devil and I wanted to I was the devil and I wanted to I was the devil and I wanted to undermine the authority of God what undermine the authority of God what undermine the authority of God what would I do I became a bad do I became a bad person in the process of trying to think person in the process of trying to think person in the process of trying to think that through it blew me away the ways that through it blew me away the ways that through it blew me away the ways that that can manifest itself and all it that that can manifest itself and all it that that can manifest itself and all it did was tell me what's going on already did was tell me what's going on already did was tell me what's going on already within our within our within our society I would get rich of moral society I would get rich of moral society I would get rich of moral values I would undermine moral values I values I would undermine moral values I values I would undermine moral values I will try to convince societ that we will try to convince societ that we will try to convince societ that we don't need moral values or morality is don't need moral values or morality is don't need moral values or morality is relative or situational there is no relative or situational there is no relative or situational there is no standard there is no universally Applied standard there is no universally Applied standard there is no universally Applied Standard of Standard of Standard of morality I would quickly unravel that so morality I would quickly unravel that so morality I would quickly unravel that so people can decide on their own what's people can decide on their own what's people can decide on their own what's good and what's not good what's moral good and what's not good what's moral good and what's not good what's moral and what's not moral how we should and what's not moral how we should and what's not moral how we should conduct ourselves within a given Society conduct ourselves within a given Society conduct ourselves within a given Society our social construct is based upon our social construct is based upon our social construct is based upon morality and boundaries and I said wow I morality and boundaries and I said wow I morality and boundaries and I said wow I would eliminate the vertical so the would eliminate the vertical so the would eliminate the vertical so the people could only live on the people could only live on the people could only live on the horizontal and if they live only on the horizontal and if they live only on the horizontal and if they live only on the horizontal plane without God they're horizontal plane without God they're horizontal plane without God they're going to self destru cuz they're already going to self destru cuz they're already going to self destru cuz they're already broken and wounded and messed broken and wounded and messed broken and wounded and messed up and trying to find good do good be

up and trying to find good do good be up and trying to find good do good be good but without a moral compass without good but without a moral compass without good but without a moral compass without an anchor it's not going to happen so I an anchor it's not going to happen so I an anchor it's not going to happen so I would I would undermine churches and would I would undermine churches and would I would undermine churches and pastors and preaching and the Bible I pastors and preaching and the Bible I pastors and preaching and the Bible I mean mean mean anything that that presents a moral anything that that presents a moral anything that that presents a moral standard or a set of moral values I standard or a set of moral values I standard or a set of moral values I would attack all of that to destabilize the that to destabilize the possibility of people experiencing good possibility of people experiencing good possibility of people experiencing good I was in I was in I was in um in Austin Texas shooting a segment um in Austin Texas shooting a segment um in Austin Texas shooting a segment for a new show that we're we're working for a new show that we're we're working for a new show that we're we're working on this particular on this particular on this particular segment is about near-death experien segment is about near-death experien segment is about near-death experien these are people who have been these are people who have been these are people who have been clinically clinically clinically dead they their heart stopped their dead they their heart stopped their dead they their heart stopped their brain stopped brain stopped brain stopped functioning the longest period was functioning the longest period was functioning the longest period was someone who was dead for three days and someone who was dead for three days and someone who was dead for three days and came back to came back to came back to life and I'm interviewing people and life and I'm interviewing people and life and I'm interviewing people and they're sharing stories of what they they're sharing stories of what they they're sharing stories of what they experience while they were clinically experience while they were clinically experience while they were clinically dead the fact that they had dead the fact that they had dead the fact that they had Consciousness the fact that they could Consciousness the fact that they could Consciousness the fact that they could see and see and see and feel analyze observe evaluate because feel analyze observe evaluate because feel analyze observe evaluate because there are there are questions even there are there are questions even there are there are questions even within our faith about the immortality within our faith about the immortality within our faith about the immortality of the Soul does the soul will continue of the Soul does the soul will continue of the Soul does the soul will continue after we de we we die

after we de we we die after we de we we die physically and one guy who is now a physically and one guy who is now a physically and one guy who is now a pastor in in in in in Texas in Austin pastor in in in in in Texas in Austin pastor in in in in in Texas in Austin Texas all right he was Texas all right he was Texas all right he was cocaine methamphetamines he was doing it cocaine methamphetamines he was doing it cocaine methamphetamines he was doing it his life was a mess and he knew it and his life was a mess and he knew it and his life was a mess and he knew it and he overdosed on he overdosed on he overdosed on cocaine cocaine cocaine and he was clinically dead and he was clinically dead and he was clinically dead and he said while he was in this this and he said while he was in this this and he said while he was in this this state he state he state he felt himself felt himself felt himself dropping and everything was dark and he dropping and everything was dark and he dropping and everything was dark and he said that he was said that he was said that he was fighting and he kept going down down fighting and he kept going down down fighting and he kept going down down down these are not those stories where down these are not those stories where down these are not those stories where people visited hell and they saw people visited hell and they saw people visited hell and they saw no he kept going down down down down no he kept going down down down down no he kept going down down down down down and and some something came back to down and and some something came back to down and and some something came back to him that he was exposed to when he was a him that he was exposed to when he was a him that he was exposed to when he was a kid about kid about kid about Jesus and he rejected it even while he Jesus and he rejected it even while he Jesus and he rejected it even while he was falling down and he said the more he was falling down and he said the more he was falling down and he said the more he rejected it the faster he began to rejected it the faster he began to rejected it the faster he began to fall and he said what he noticed most fall and he said what he noticed most fall and he said what he noticed most was as he was falling he was moving was as he was falling he was moving was as he was falling he was moving away from light from goodness from away from light from goodness from away from light from goodness from compassion from peace from Love things compassion from peace from Love things compassion from peace from Love things that he he experienced to a degree while

that he he experienced to a degree while that he he experienced to a degree while he was still alive but he found himself he was still alive but he found himself he was still alive but he found himself moving further and further and further moving further and further and further moving further and further and further away I could not you know uh Express away I could not you know uh Express away I could not you know uh Express better than the way he did the reality better than the way he did the reality better than the way he did the reality that to be apart from God and the that to be apart from God and the that to be apart from God and the further you move away from God the further you move away from God the further you move away from God the further you move away from the nature of further you move away from the nature of further you move away from the nature of God God is good so if you move away from God God is good so if you move away from God God is good so if you move away from God you remove you you you moove move God you remove you you you moove move God you remove you you you moove move your way away from goodness God is love your way away from goodness God is love your way away from goodness God is love so the further you are from God the so the further you are from God the so the further you are from God the further you are from love God is light further you are from love God is light further you are from love God is light so the further you are from God the so the further you are from God the so the further you are from God the further you are from light how many further you are from light how many further you are from light how many understand what I'm talking about here understand what I'm talking about here understand what I'm talking about here and he was feeling it and and and and he and he was feeling it and and and and he and he was feeling it and and and and he said at one moment he just cried out and said at one moment he just cried out and said at one moment he just cried out and all of a sudden he stopped falling and all of a sudden he stopped falling and all of a sudden he stopped falling and he started coming back up and as he came he started coming back up and as he came he started coming back up and as he came back up and notice up and down is how he back up and notice up and down is how he back up and notice up and down is how he was describing it he could see was describing it he could see was describing it he could see what was happening around him but what was happening around him but what was happening around him but couldn't communicate with it there was couldn't communicate with it there was couldn't communicate with it there was another woman I was up in um in Clayton another woman I was up in um in Clayton another woman I was up in um in Clayton New York and her experience was that she New York and her experience was that she New York and her experience was that she was lifted elevated and saw the was lifted elevated and saw the was lifted elevated and saw the operating room and the doctors and operating room and the doctors and operating room and the doctors and everybody was working and she everybody was working and she everybody was working and she experienced peace compassion empathy all experienced peace compassion empathy all experienced peace compassion empathy all those things and she didn't want to go those things and she didn't want to go those things and she didn't want to go back because of the broken life that she back because of the broken life that she back because of the broken life that she was experiencing she too was drugs and

was experiencing she too was drugs and was experiencing she too was drugs and alcohol things like that and she didn't alcohol things like that and she didn't alcohol things like that and she didn't she didn't want to go back and she said she didn't want to go back and she said she didn't want to go back and she said that this was more real to her this that this was more real to her this that this was more real to her this environment was more real to her than environment was more real to her than environment was more real to her than the environment that she was in when she the environment that she was in when she the environment that she was in when she was here on Earth so you'll hear more was here on Earth so you'll hear more was here on Earth so you'll hear more about the show when it comes out and about the show when it comes out and about the show when it comes out and share with you incredible story and share with you incredible story and share with you incredible story and these people are not making stuff up I these people are not making stuff up I these people are not making stuff up I mean this was real to them and as they mean this was real to them and as they mean this was real to them and as they convey the story you can feel the convey the story you can feel the convey the story you can feel the realness of it the reality of it I say realness of it the reality of it I say realness of it the reality of it I say that to say that if we develop only on a that to say that if we develop only on a that to say that if we develop only on a vertical plane apart from God we as a vertical plane apart from God we as a vertical plane apart from God we as a society will move further and further society will move further and further society will move further and further away from the things that make us good away from the things that make us good away from the things that make us good and make us for goodness and give us and make us for goodness and give us and make us for goodness and give us peace and love and empathy and peace and love and empathy and peace and love and empathy and understanding so Legacy is essentially understanding so Legacy is essentially understanding so Legacy is essentially what we leave what we leave what we leave behind once we've gone through our behind once we've gone through our behind once we've gone through our actions our beliefs our achievements and actions our beliefs our achievements and actions our beliefs our achievements and our our our failures the Bible says in Proverbs failures the Bible says in Proverbs failures the Bible says in Proverbs 13:22 a good man leaves an inheritance 13:22 a good man leaves an inheritance 13:22 a good man leaves an inheritance to his to his to his children's children's children's children did you get that to his children did you get that to his children did you get that to his children's children children's children children's children so Pastor Jamal doesn't get the

inheritance the grandchildren get inheritance the grandchildren get [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] it how do you feel about it how do you feel about it how do you feel about that that's not true but when we think about Legacy what true but when we think about Legacy what we leave behind right Legacy is first spiritual and whether you're trying to spiritual and whether you're trying to leave one or not you're going to leave leave one or not you're going to leave leave one or not you're going to leave one you want to elaborate on that Pastor elaborate on the fact that we're Pastor elaborate on the fact that we're going to leave a legacy good or going to leave a legacy good or going to leave a legacy good or not still going to leave a it uh it uh um see how he just do by the way he's um see how he just do by the way he's um see how he just do by the way he's he's getting he's getting coming from he's getting he's getting coming from he's getting he's getting coming from the chat the chat the chat or yeah he's getting text messages in or yeah he's getting text messages in or yeah he's getting text messages in response to our conversation that's his response to our conversation that's his response to our conversation that's his job as well yeah somebody sent me um job as well yeah somebody sent me um job as well yeah somebody sent me um updated uh um stats on Father's updated uh um stats on Father's updated uh um stats on Father's Day yeah oh they gave you some stats Day yeah oh they gave you some stats Day yeah oh they gave you some stats there stats out there people actually there stats out there people actually there stats out there people actually measure yeah they're actually G they measure yeah they're actually G they measure yeah they're actually G they said that they actually going to spend said that they actually going to spend said that they actually going to spend more money this Father's Day than other more money this Father's Day than other more money this Father's Day than other Father's Day they have spent before Father's Day they have spent before Father's Day they have spent before who's spending the money the people who's spending the money the people who's spending the money the people people are spending money more money people are spending money more money people are spending money more money this Father's Day question is is it this Father's Day question is is it this Father's Day question is is it going to the father though I don't

going to the father though I don't going to the father though I don't know it just got good discounts good know it just got good discounts good know it just got good discounts good deals right you know I don't know if the deals right you know I don't know if the deals right you know I don't know if the fathers are getting it but you know this fathers are getting it but you know this fathers are getting it but you know this but uh the the the the the the first but uh the the the the the the first but uh the the the the the the first thing Pastor saying is the spiritual thing Pastor saying is the spiritual thing Pastor saying is the spiritual Legacy and looks that the the Legacy and looks that the the Legacy and looks that the the significance of it uh I don't think that significance of it uh I don't think that significance of it uh I don't think that it's only in order of 1 two three but it's only in order of 1 two three but it's only in order of 1 two three but more so of significance because if you more so of significance because if you more so of significance because if you don't realize and be intentional about don't realize and be intentional about don't realize and be intentional about what we leave behind then anything can what we leave behind then anything can what we leave behind then anything can swoop in and become take this place of swoop in and become take this place of swoop in and become take this place of what should be left behind I say again what should be left behind I say again what should be left behind I say again if you don't if we're not intention if you don't if we're not intention if you don't if we're not intention about what we leave behind anything can about what we leave behind anything can about what we leave behind anything can swooping and become take its place for swooping and become take its place for swooping and become take its place for what should be left behind and and the what should be left behind and and the what should be left behind and and the the the essence of the spiritual aspect the the essence of the spiritual aspect the the essence of the spiritual aspect it it it creates a foundation and a it it it creates a foundation and a it it it creates a foundation and a rooting place for everything else to rooting place for everything else to rooting place for everything else to flow out of that right so Who We Are flow out of that right so Who We Are flow out of that right so Who We Are somebody asked me you know looking at 1 somebody asked me you know looking at 1 somebody asked me you know looking at 1 Peter 3:15 he says at depending on what Peter 3:15 he says at depending on what Peter 3:15 he says at depending on what translation you read but he says above translation you read but he says above translation you read but he says above all else keep Christ Center of your all else keep Christ Center of your all else keep Christ Center of your life right and then be prepared to give life right and then be prepared to give life right and then be prepared to give an answer for what you believe and why an answer for what you believe and why an answer for what you believe and why you believe what you believe this is you believe what you believe this is you believe what you believe this is Jamal ISM and when I look at that and I Jamal ISM and when I look at that and I Jamal ISM and when I look at that and I see at the center if Christ is at the see at the center if Christ is at the see at the center if Christ is at the center that mean the center dictates how center that mean the center dictates how center that mean the center dictates how everything else everything else everything else revolves around you right so it it it revolves around you right so it it it revolves around you right so it it it dictates the spatiality of certain dictates the spatiality of certain dictates the spatiality of certain things right so whatever is at the things right so whatever is at the things right so whatever is at the center whatever is at the core of who center whatever is at the core of who center whatever is at the core of who you are the your your spiritual being uh you are the your your spiritual being uh you are the your your spiritual being uh it becomes the the the the the the voice

it becomes the the the the the the voice it becomes the the the the the the voice on how you relate to everything else on how you relate to everything else on how you relate to everything else outside of that so everything else is an outside of that so everything else is an outside of that so everything else is an expression of that centrality yes it expression of that centrality yes it expression of that centrality yes it comes from what's Happening inside yep comes from what's Happening inside yep comes from what's Happening inside yep that foundation so so you you you that foundation so so you you you that foundation so so you you you interact your interactions are dictated interact your interactions are dictated interact your interactions are dictated by what's that Center your your your by what's that Center your your your by what's that Center your your your your your the closeness of whatever your your the closeness of whatever your your the closeness of whatever you're interacting with is is based on you're interacting with is is based on you're interacting with is is based on what's at Center uh your your your the what's at Center uh your your your the what's at Center uh your your your the way you manage and Steward certain way you manage and Steward certain way you manage and Steward certain things is based on what is at the center things is based on what is at the center things is based on what is at the center so if your your your your Center is not so if your your your your Center is not so if your your your your Center is not centered then you can be out of balance centered then you can be out of balance centered then you can be out of balance and out of alignment and everything else and out of alignment and everything else and out of alignment and everything else outside of that so I come on cre outside of that so I come on cre outside of that so I come on cre problems and issues start arising and problems and issues start arising and problems and issues start arising and you start saying okay why is this you start saying okay why is this you start saying okay why is this happening in the question is what are happening in the question is what are happening in the question is what are you centered on right right right whoa you centered on right right right whoa you centered on right right right whoa Is that real Is that real Is that real time we're going to have to do part two time we're going to have to do part two time we're going to have to do part two of this listen Jesus said when the evil this listen Jesus said when the evil spirit is cast out how many are familiar spirit is cast out how many are familiar spirit is cast out how many are familiar with the text when the evil spirit is with the text when the evil spirit is with the text when the evil spirit is cast out it goes about seeking a place cast out it goes about seeking a place cast out it goes about seeking a place of rest of rest of rest if it finds none it returns yeah looking if it finds none it returns yeah looking if it finds none it returns yeah looking to see if the place that it was cast out to see if the place that it was cast out to see if the place that it was cast out of is vacant is of is vacant is of is vacant is filled he said if it's swept and

filled he said if it's swept and filled he said if it's swept and garnished because evil was removed but garnished because evil was removed but garnished because evil was removed but not not not filled then the evil spirit filled then the evil spirit filled then the evil spirit returns and returns with reinforcements returns and returns with reinforcements returns and returns with reinforcements mhm MH to make sure it's not so easily mhm MH to make sure it's not so easily mhm MH to make sure it's not so easily removed yep the way it was the first removed yep the way it was the first removed yep the way it was the first time it goes and seeks seven more time it goes and seeks seven more time it goes and seeks seven more Spirits worse than Spirits worse than Spirits worse than itself in order to secure itself back itself in order to secure itself back itself in order to secure itself back into that house from which which from into that house from which which from into that house from which which from which it was cast which it was cast which it was cast out out out evil loves a vacuum yeah say that evil loves a vacuum yeah say that evil loves a vacuum yeah say that again evil again evil again evil loves a loves a loves a vacuum and it's looking to fill that vacuum and it's looking to fill that vacuum and it's looking to fill that void with evil so if Legacy is first void with evil so if Legacy is first void with evil so if Legacy is first spiritual and you don't have spiritual and you don't have spiritual and you don't have spirituality if you don't have a spirituality if you don't have a spirituality if you don't have a spiritual Foundation then what you're spiritual Foundation then what you're spiritual Foundation then what you're leaving to the next leaving to the next leaving to the next generation is a spiritual generation is a spiritual generation is a spiritual void a spiritual vacuum and evil is void a spiritual vacuum and evil is void a spiritual vacuum and evil is going to look to fill that vacuum going to look to fill that vacuum going to look to fill that vacuum you understand how important this is how you understand how important this is how you understand how important this is how real this is because you're going to real this is because you're going to real this is because you're going to pass on a spirituality to your family to pass on a spirituality to your family to pass on a spirituality to your family to your children to your grandchildren your children to your grandchildren your children to your grandchildren you're going to pass on a spirituality you're going to pass on a spirituality you're going to pass on a spirituality you have no idea the blessing of one of

you have no idea the blessing of one of you have no idea the blessing of one of my grandchildren coming to me and saying my grandchildren coming to me and saying my grandchildren coming to me and saying to me he said pop the best gift you gave to me he said pop the best gift you gave to me he said pop the best gift you gave me is your knowledge of Jesus me is your knowledge of Jesus me is your knowledge of Jesus Christ your knowledge of God is the best Christ your knowledge of God is the best Christ your knowledge of God is the best best gift that you've ever given me and best gift that you've ever given me and best gift that you've ever given me and for that for that young man to for that for that young man to for that for that young man to understand this to get understand this to get understand this to get it that was an incredible blessing to me it that was an incredible blessing to me it that was an incredible blessing to me so you're going to pass on a so you're going to pass on a so you're going to pass on a spirituality it's going to be a void spirituality it's going to be a void spirituality it's going to be a void that will be filled by evil or it's that will be filled by evil or it's that will be filled by evil or it's going to be filled by the knowledge of going to be filled by the knowledge of going to be filled by the knowledge of God and your own personal experiences in God and your own personal experiences in God and your own personal experiences in relationship to God when you think of relationship to God when you think of relationship to God when you think of spirituality if I spirituality if I spirituality if I may don't think of it as just going to may don't think of it as just going to may don't think of it as just going to church or being part of a religion no church or being part of a religion no church or being part of a religion no your your your spirituality tells spirituality tells spirituality tells you who or what Ultimate Reality you who or what Ultimate Reality you who or what Ultimate Reality is your is your is your spirituality is your connection to God spirituality is your connection to God spirituality is your connection to God and our faith tradition to Yahweh to and our faith tradition to Yahweh to and our faith tradition to Yahweh to Jesus Christ how many understand what Jesus Christ how many understand what Jesus Christ how many understand what I'm talking about because it's through I'm talking about because it's through I'm talking about because it's through your spirituality your spirituality your spirituality that you answer the big questions your that you answer the big questions your that you answer the big questions your spirituality tells you what or who or spirituality tells you what or who or spirituality tells you what or who or what is God what is Ultimate Reality what is God what is Ultimate Reality what is God what is Ultimate Reality because this is not ultimate this is because this is not ultimate this is because this is not ultimate this is broken so there's got to be something broken so there's got to be something broken so there's got to be something greater than this above and beyond this

greater than this above and beyond this greater than this above and beyond this your spirituality teaches you tells you your spirituality teaches you tells you your spirituality teaches you tells you and reinforces in you what is Ultimate and reinforces in you what is Ultimate and reinforces in you what is Ultimate Reality number two your Reality number two your Reality number two your spirituality tells you spirituality tells you spirituality tells you what it means to be what it means to be what it means to be human being human is spiritual folks human being human is spiritual folks human being human is spiritual folks it's not it's not it's not physical it is expressed through the physical it is expressed through the physical it is expressed through the physical body as the Temple of God's physical body as the Temple of God's physical body as the Temple of God's presence but presence but presence but existence as it is revealed to us in existence as it is revealed to us in existence as it is revealed to us in scripture God breathed into Adam the scripture God breathed into Adam the scripture God breathed into Adam the breath of life and he became a living breath of life and he became a living breath of life and he became a living soul but it was that soul but it was that soul but it was that breath that entered him that animated breath that entered him that animated breath that entered him that animated him animated this body and gave him him animated this body and gave him him animated this body and gave him identity and gave him personality and identity and gave him personality and identity and gave him personality and released him towards the Dominion released him towards the Dominion released him towards the Dominion mandate so your mandate so your mandate so your spirituality teaches you what it means spirituality teaches you what it means spirituality teaches you what it means what does it mean to be what does it mean to be what does it mean to be human and it begins for us with the imod human and it begins for us with the imod human and it begins for us with the imod day the image of God theni your day the image of God theni your day the image of God theni your spirituality teaches you what it means spirituality teaches you what it means spirituality teaches you what it means to live in this world what does it mean to live in this world what does it mean to live in this world what does it mean to live in this world to relate to to live in this world to relate to to live in this world to relate to people to circumstances to experiences people to circumstances to experiences people to circumstances to experiences to situations to to constructs to to situations to to constructs to to situations to to constructs to systems and structures and values and systems and structures and values and systems and structures and values and beliefs that that that represent the

standard to set the the the the pattern standard to set the the the the pattern and the tone but you looked at the and the tone but you looked at the and the tone but you looked at the biblical model of what a fatherhood biblical model of what a fatherhood biblical model of what a fatherhood looks like and you have raised looks like and you have raised looks like and you have raised seven seven seven sons that have a desire to be fathers in sons that have a desire to be fathers in sons that have a desire to be fathers in their lives their child's their lives their child's their lives their child's lives so this is an lives so this is an lives so this is an example of no matter what circumstance example of no matter what circumstance example of no matter what circumstance you're birth into no matter what you're birth into no matter what you're birth into no matter what situation you come out of no matter what situation you come out of no matter what situation you come out of no matter what lack that you have if you turn to the lack that you have if you turn to the lack that you have if you turn to the biblical biblical biblical model of what it looks like to be a model of what it looks like to be a model of what it looks like to be a father what it looks like to be a mother father what it looks like to be a mother father what it looks like to be a mother what it looks like to be a human it is what it looks like to be a human it is what it looks like to be a human it is possible to be successful in a world possible to be successful in a world possible to be successful in a world that's so that's so that's so antagonistic to what we are here to antagonistic to what we are here to antagonistic to what we are here to stand for if you just turn to the stand for if you just turn to the stand for if you just turn to the biblical biblical biblical narrative you can see a line being drawn narrative you can see a line being drawn narrative you can see a line being drawn one that we can be one that we can be one that we can be confident and confident in that no confident and confident in that no confident and confident in that no matter what the enemy does no matter matter what the enemy does no matter matter what the enemy does no matter what weapon is formed we will stand in what weapon is formed we will stand in what weapon is formed we will stand in Victory Victory Victory [Applause]
