Wish you were here. I am here. I don't. Hi. I'm just reading some mail that I got. I got a postcard sent to me.

It looks like it looks like. Finally. I just got it. This is nice. This is from a distillery. What distillery?

Journeyman distillery. And somebody, some people were there apparently in Michigan. And a group of people

filled out a card and sent it to me. And so there's a big sign. Obviously written a big message

written obviously by a woman. It says wish you were here exclamation point. And then one says I don't

that was Michelle. Ali wrote her name with a heart. Andrew said hi Andrew. I don't know why you

said hi Andrew. Gray gave me a heart. I can't. I don't know who that is. TFZ. That's my signature.

Okay, so what's this? That's my signature. No, I get that. I get the J. I get the F. What's that?

Auler. Oh, that's the okay. Got it. And then who's who's that? Let me see it bring closer. It's like Kevin says Kevin.

Wait, who is that? I don't even know. So they. That's not Alison. Oh, is that Alice? That must be Alison. Okay. Yeah, but it looks like a K.

Yeah, I understand the. But Alice. It looks like she's got a Y in her name, but that's she doesn't have a Y. Okay. So yeah,

the, you know, Jimmy and all of his friends. Or I'm sorry, just a small portion of his many friends went to

this distillery without me. But they sent me this postcard, which then really made me feel nice because it

meant they were thinking of we were thinking of even if they're mocking me. We did not mock you. I'm just saying even if

you were mocking me. We were not and they thrown it in my face. Like hey, we're here having a good time and you're at home

crying by yourself because nobody likes you. Even if it's that, you were still thinking of me.

Speaking of me, my name is Joe Thorne. I'm the lead pastor of Redeemer Fellowship in St. Charles, Illinois.

And I'm Joe Fowler executive pastor at Redeemer Fellowship. And this is doctrine and devotion. It's a podcast that

explores Christian faith and practice from a reformed Baptist perspective. What is going on, man? Nothing. I'm, you know,

I would sit here waiting for when this moment would happen. It came in on Friday. So yesterday as a recording. Yeah,

that's so great. It's so great. I saw that and I was like, oh, nice. But I put that on my dash. So I bring it in in the morning.

We thought you'd get a kick. I liked it very much. And then we're like, well, do we just do one or we can all do one?
