Heavenly Father, thank you so much. You are worthy to be praised and the only one, the only thing worthy of praise, Lord.

Thank you for this time that we can gather and just worship you and lift up your name.

Be with the message, Lord, and I pray that you will just open up our hearts to receive it.

Thank you again for this place and time.

Yes, Lord. Jesus name. Amen. Amen. Wow, rowdy bunch tonight. All right. Well, good evening and welcome. So glad you're here.

So glad that you're joining with us as well online. Before we jump in, though, I just want to mention a lot of you have been asking about

Christmas morning, everybody wants to be with their families. However, Saturday night,

5 o'clock, we're going to start at 5, we're going to have our Christmas Eve service. So you might want to make a note of that.

And then Sunday, New Year's Day, we do have our two

services. Actually, Pastor Mack is going to be teaching on January 1st Sunday morning.

So, okay, let's get started. Three more chapters, right? Okay, full disclosure. Last week, you three more chapters and we did three chapters

last week with communion.

Of course I was watching in the cameras and see how many of you brought your pajamas and

toothbrushes for tonight, but you're not going to need

them. So let's pray, yeah? Looking forward to what God has for us tonight. Father in heaven,

thank you so much, Lord. Lord, we need you to now just kind of settle us down quiet our minds especially now this time of year is

always so busy and even stressful needlessly and fortunately but it is and so
