How are we doing church?

Let's go.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms here. You can tell we're going to do something a little bit different. So we've been in a series called Big Questions, where you guys have sent in your questions, and you said, hey, these are the questions we're asking. Not only that, but you can vote them up on a Slydo app. There's an application that some brilliant mind has come up with, where you can vote up, You can vote up, hey, this is my question too.

This is my question too. vote them up on a Slydo app. There's an application that some brilliant mind has come up with

where you can vote up, hey, this is my question too. This is my question too. And so next week, we're going to wrap up big questions. You're going to have an opportunity to vote on the final four, say, hey, I want to make sure you guys cover this next week. But this week is going to be a little bit of a rapid fire round. And so every year, about every year, we do a Q&A up here, which is just a time where you can ask questions. Well, because we're in this big question series, we know your questions, we've seen your questions, you've asked your questions, and so that's what we're going to do today, where we're going to take seven of those questions, if God willing, there's enough time, and work through them and make sure that you guys leave here. So it's a note taker's sermon.

You guys know our preference is to take a passage of scripture, to stay in that, to stay in

that scripture, to break it up so that you leave with a great understanding of a text.

Today there will be lots of scripture, lots of jumping around,

lots of questions going different places. But I do want to say this. If you're not typically in this

room, maybe you're a guest today, maybe Mama leveraged everything she had and said, hey, I gave you

life, so you're going to show up today. I want you to know that we gather here,

you saw that giant cross on the screen earlier,

we gather here around the person of Jesus Christ

who died for our sins and raised from the dead.

And we're just crazy enough to believe

that we're going to be with God forever

in his kingdom, forever and ever and ever

because he paid our way there through his son

Jesus Christ and it would be just a tremendous miss if we didn't start right there John how we doing
