Welcome, welcome, friends, to the line of fire. If you're listening live on radio or the day the

podcast or YouTube broadcast is released, it's December 30th. So coming to the end of this year,

I'm in the midst of an extended time of stepping back from public ministry, teaching, preaching,

getting some extra time to meet with the Lord

and rest and slow down. Really in my decades of ministry, I've never really had a sabbatical.

So this is a wonderful season for me to just be stepping back and spending extra time with the Lord

and Nancy and be refreshed and hopefully come out closer to Jesus than ever

more full of the spirit and the word than ever able to effectively serve you better than ever

in the years ahead but right now time to step back and and what we're doing we did it last week

we'll do it again this week to end this year

and to come into the new year we're taking you into some messages that i preached and taught

previously so let you know it's coming this week so let's say it'll be new year's eve and new

year's day you'll hear a message that I preached in 2017 about breaking the

stronghold of food. So this was, so it's now been over 10 years that God's transformed my

lifestyle, transformed my life, and, you know, I'm healthier now on every level than I was

10 years ago, probably 20 years ago, maybe even 30 years ago.

It's just remarkable to see the changes.

This was seven years into the journey with the results being extraordinary.

Now I can look back years after that.

No, this was three years into the journey.

Sorry.

Three years into the journey.
