Being a Christian means going to war with what you hate to have peace with who you love.

You want to have peace with God?

He's going to ask you to strap up and go to war with what he hates.

And sometimes what he hates is not going to look like something that's worth hating.

But to him, when it comes at a cost of putting him below it,

it's worth going to war with. Anything we put over God is worth going to war with, no matter how

small it might seem to the world. All right. Thanks for being here.

Everybody. My name's Alex.

Welcome to House Church.

And we are ending our series on time today.

We're still going to be in Ecclesiastes walking through all those chapters.

But we're going to end our super slow series on time today.

Comes to an end in Ecclesiastes chapter 3, verse 8.

So we went back to the beach for the first time since having the baby, baby live.

And it was really fun.

None of us had been in the ocean for a while and uh lucy wanted to jump

in all of her brothers were jumping off the harbor and they're having fun and lucy was like i want to jump

in so she jumps in or before she does i'm in the water and she's like kind of scared and she's like

looking at me and she's like okay dad i'm, I'm ready. She got her floaty on.

And at some point, she just jumps.

And I just let her hit the water and then I go over there and I like make sure she's not like freaked out or anything.

But when you jump at that age into the water, you're leaving nothing back.
