Hi, I'm Erwin McManus and I want to welcome you to the Mosaic Podcast.

I want to also bring into some exciting things that are happening here.

If you go to the Mosaic app, you will learn about our conference coming up this year,

about MSC's new album and their tour across the

country and you can learn how to connect and be more involved in mosaic in so many

different ways and by the way we now have the mosaic YouTube channel

and you can go access not only these talks but

other fresh and new materials that are being created specifically for that

channel and so if you want to be connected in a richer and fuller way, not only be a part of the

podcast, get to the Mosaic app and get to the channel and we'll see you there.

Have you ever had someone ask you a question and it just sticks to you. You can't shake it. I had to have to me last

week. After the gathering this young guy came up to me named Shane Reed and I love

Shane. I've noticed his mom and dad for years and years and I've watched

Shane grow up and and she was always one of those savants you know one of those kids

you just knew was a genius before he knew he was a genius although I think he knew at a young age

because it was sort of obvious that he was smarter than everyone else and and over

the years he's come to me and said I have a question that always made me nervous

that oh no I know his 14 year old question is going to be profound and I don't know if I can answer it.

And sometimes when I would answer the question I look at him thinking, am I right?

So he came up to me Sunday and he said I have a question and I said okay

because I'm always gonna make room for Shane and and but I was nervous I was

bracing myself because I knew this was going to be some metaphysical questions
