Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

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

If you enjoy 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.

They were in a boat on a lake fishing one day together and 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 first men 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 oh i'm ashamed to admit this but I have a problem with gambling. I sneak out a lot of nights and go gamble. Second

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

pay my taxes. Third pastor just sat there silently. They waited and waited. He wouldn't budge.

They said, we're not getting off this boat until you tell us your greatest sin.

He said, all right, my greatest sin is gossiping, and I can't wait to get off this boat.

Say it like you mean it.

This is my Bible.
