Hope you enjoy your job. I hope you're thankful for it.

We are for hours.

The big reason is we're here because we want to encourage you spiritually.

Like genuinely give you courage,

remind you of God's goodness,

is faithfulness,

a reason to look forward to things,

a reason to be at peace.

We want to do that every day.

Like the songs, the stuff we talk about, ultimately, that is why we show up. I don't know if you ever had to be a witness and a courtroom, but what you're supposed to do, you get up there and you say what you saw. This is what I observed. You don't get up there and go, well, here's what I believe. Here are the list of my

beliefs. I was reading Heather Thompson Day. She's an author and she was talking about this.

She's like, that's what it means to be witness. You don't force like, well, here's my beliefs. I'm

going to battle you for them. It's like, here's what I've seen happen. Here's what's happened in my

own life. Here's what God's done for me. Here's how I've seen happen. Here's what's happened in my own life.

Here's what God's done for me.

Here's how I've changed.

Here's the piece that I have now.

This is what I've seen.

It's what I've experienced.

That's what it means to be a witness.
