Hey, everybody. Welcome to you. You are born for this podcast with Father John Ricardo and Mary

Gilfoyle. We are a couple of missionaries at Acts 29. This is the podcast where we talk about the

Word of God and how it brings transformation and hope and encouragement and exitations to worship

and praise God.

And Mary, that's exactly what the scripture passage that we are going to look at today is going to do,

courage of Jesus. Ooh, the incomprehensible courage of Jesus. In the name of the Father,

the Son, the Holy Spirit. Amen. Gracious Father, we just ask right now that as Mary and I try to lift up your son

in our conversation, that it would have the effect of doing what he said in the Gospels,

son in new ways and all that he's done for us and to respond in the way that you're asking us to

respond by falling to our knees and adoring and worshiping him and then seeking to do all that we

can to make him known to an increasingly

anxious, restless, and fearful world. We ask it all in Jesus' name. Amen. In the name of the

Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Father John, before we get started, I just want to remind

our friends who are listening that the Rescue Project Challenge

is currently underway. It's exciting to hear from everybody as they're stepping into the challenge.

We launched it, I think, last week on the 10th of September. So if you haven't joined the

challenge yet, you can still do that. And you can do that by visiting our website, rescueproject.us, slash challenge, or go to your
