Hey, don't start clicking off. I promise we're going to get to the preaching in just a moment, but I'm excited about this.

This is a very special tradition at elevation and we want to speak to all of you who call our church home, especially our extended family, our E-FAM,

around the world because once a year we have a special series. It's really more than a collection of teachings.

It's a faith experience for all of the people who are part of our ministry at elevation.

And this year our theme is game changer. I think one of the most exciting things that God is doing in our ministry is to open the doors of our ministry beyond our walls.

What I mean by that is we are amazed at the thousands and thousands and thousands of you who are letting us know that you're impacted by this ministry.

In another zip code, in another state, in another country, maybe eventually on another planet.

But what I wanted to mention to you is that you can be a part of this beyond just consuming.

Many of you have been blessed by God to be a blessing. I wanted to ask today, would you be willing during this special time of year to make a one-time donation to the ministry or maybe partner with us on a monthly basis through recurring giving?

I believe God could use your gift to enable this ministry to continue to reach, to continue to break paradigms, to continue to lift up Jesus.

And I wanted to ask you personally to go to elevationchurch.org and you can see the ways to give there. But most importantly, know that we feel a tremendous sense of responsibility to minister the Word of God not only to you, but to challenge you, to partner with us and reaching people for the gospel.

I believe your gift today could be a game changer. So don't put it off right now.

elevationchurch.org, you can find all of the details. I hope you enjoy this message and thank you for being a part of the family.

It feels good here, elevation bell. I know what does it like Norman over at Blightney Up, but you see, I know it feels great up there.

Hey, my name is Larry Bryan. I get the privilege of opening up God's Word with you today. And all my friends call me LB. At least my friends do. You can call me LB too. You can say, hey, LB.

Oh, man, thank you. I'm glad to be here. And a truism we learned early in our churches. People may not always remember what you say, but they'll always remember the way you make them feel.

I want to make sure that everybody who's here, that's the first time, guess, feels very welcomed today. I'd like you to give out at least three displays of affection.

You can give a hug, a high five, a handshake. I want you to welcome at least three people, at least three church appropriate displays of affection mind you.

After you have done that, you, you may be seated. Thank you. Worship team. Thank you so much. Hey, have you enjoyed this season we're in right now? Game changer? Oh my goodness.

It has been absolutely incredible week one. Let's do a quick little review right here. Secret scorecard. My reason determines my reward. How many of you were blessed by week one of this series? My gosh.

Now week two for all the warriors in the house. Pastor Stephen burned the place down. He talked about reverse your worry. Worship is worry in reverse. How many of you were blessed by that? Oh my gosh. And so week one week two, let's, let's call a week three. This is week three. I get the privilege of delivering God's word today.

Here's the title I want to give for today's message is this for the note takers in the house. You would write this down an ordinary day. An ordinary day. Say ordinary.
