Hi, this is Joel in Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoyed today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

Well, God bless you.

It's a joy to come into your homes and if you're ever in our area, please stop by and be a part

of one of our services.

These are the finest people in all of Houston, Texas right here at Lakewood.

So come out when you can.

But thanks for tuning in today and thank you again for being here.

I like to start with something funny and I heard about these three pastors that were in

a boat on a lake fishing one day together.

One of them said, we never get to let our hair down.

Let's each tell the area that we struggle in the most.

Our greatest sin so we can pray for each other.

This man said, I hate to admit this but I have a problem with gambling.

I sneak out a lot of nights and go gamble.

Second pastor said, I'm ashamed to admit this but I have a problem with cheating.

I hardly ever paid my taxes.

Third pastor just sat there silently.

They waited and waited.

He wouldn't budge.
