What's your plan as we go into the holidays for how you're going to share the

gospel with your family members or friends who don't know Jesus? I wrote a short

resource called Gospel Threads to help you intentionally share Christ in the

fabric of your normal conversations around the table or the living room or wherever you are,

and we want to send you a free copy of gospel threads to your

front door just go to radical dot net slash share Jesus.

Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from radical. net.

1st Corinthians chapter 4 verse 7

for who sees anything different in you?

What did you have that you did not receive? If then you received it, why

did you boast as if you did not receive it? This is a great verse that reminds us very very simply every one of us that every good thing we have is from God

There is nothing good in us that did not come from God.

I think about a group of professional athletes I was speaking to not long ago.

I mean these are elite athletes getting paid,

many of them, a lot of money to play this sport. and as I'm speaking to them I was just talking to them about how

unnatural their gifts are how a lot of people would like to have the gifts they have, but they don't

have them.

And I just said, I trust you realize it's all from God. It's not from you.

It's all from God.

And I said, now some of you, as soon as I say that might think,

wait a minute, like I work hard at my skill in this sport like I get up 4 o'clock in the morning I workout I eat healthy

I train all day and this way, that way.
