Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

Well, God bless you.

It is always our joy to come into your homes.

We know God has great things in store.

If you're ever in our area,

I hope you'll stop by and be a part of one of our services. I promise you it will make you feel right

at home. But thanks so much for tuning in today. I like to get started with something funny each week.

And I heard about this man named Bill. He was a Southern Baptist. And he loved to sneak out to the horse races and bet.

And one day after losing almost all of his money, he saw a priest step out onto the tracks

and bless a horse. He watched closely, and sure enough, the horse won first place.

The next race, the priest blessed another horse. Once again, it won. Well, Bill ran down to the ATM machine, got all of his money out. This time he saw the priest not only touched the horse's forehead, but he touched his eyes, his ears, and all of his hooves. Feeling so confident, he bet all of his money. But in the middle of that race, that horse fell over and died. He couldn't

believe it. He said to the priest, what in the world happened? The priest said, that's the problem with

you, Protestants. You don't know the difference between a blessing and the last rights.

All right. Hold up your Bible. Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert. My heart is receptive. I will never be the same.

In Jesus' name.

God bless you.

I want to talk to you today about embracing change.

One thing is certain.

Change is inevitable.
