Hey, everybody. Welcome to You Were Born for this podcast with Father John Ricardo. That's me. I'm Father John. I am the executive director at Acts 29, where we talk about anything and everything having to do with transformation in the church. I'm here with my dear sister, co-missionary partner in agent of sabotage, Mary Guilfoyle.

How you doing, sister? I'm a good father. How about you? Well, I'm on steroids, so I'm hyper.

Yes. So, so picture the scene. So, you know, Father John has this intense passion, this

extraordinary zeal.

You had a layer of steroids on top of that.

We're having a hard time keeping up, Father.

But we thank God that you are getting strong again and healthy.

I am too.

Thanks for everybody's prayers.

And yeah, pray now that I don't bounce off the walls.

Praying that I can keep up with you today.

Yeah, so we have a great, I think very edifying, inspiring and true topic today.

We do.

So the title for today's conversation is those who are with us are more than against us.

Oh, that sounds timely because I don't know about you, but I often feel like,

I think I'm just vastly outnumbered by people in the world in which I'm living right now.

Don't you feel like a minority oftentimes?

A minority, marginalized, kind of out there on the fringes. But that's just not true.

Yeah.

So if anybody at all feels that way,

which I'm sure is many of us,

please God, what we're about to talk about
