Well, I want to welcome Michael Marisa Miller.

For those of you who don't know, they pastor Upper Room in Dallas, and they have other campuses,

and they are such dear friends to us, and it's such an honor to have them here today.

I don't think there's another house in America where we feel such a kindred assignment,

especially in this season, to minister to the Lord more than we feel

with upper room. And I've had the joy of walking with upper room now since I think 2012. I preached

the gospel with a bunch of upper rumors in the backyard of a business guy in Dallas while they were eating

burritos. And amazingly, the power of a business guy in Dallas while they were eating burritos.

And amazingly, the power of God fell.

And I fell in love with that community and started just hanging out in the back of the church when I would come through Dallas.

A friend of mine named George Brandon said, you've got to come check out these wild people

who meet near a, think of a vet clinic

or something like that. And they're the real deal. And Jesse and I do our best to give you

people who really love the Lord and whose lives exemplify that at the pulpit and away from it.

We try to expose you to people. In fact, we do expose

you to people who love their families, who take their marriages very seriously, who love their

children, and who deeply love Jesus. And so when we felt the Lord stirring us, especially regarding this

season, that God had something special for us as a family. Michael and Lowe were at the top of the

list. And so I love you guys so much. And thank you for being here. They've got service going right

now in Dallas, but they're here with us. Someone's... you guys so much and thank you for being here they've got service going right now uh in

Dallas but they're here with us so I want you to receive them right now as family let's honor

them and welcome them thank you guys for being here love you so much love you love you. I love you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
