Well, as Caleb shared, I get to open God's word with you today.

Pastor Skip is in Berlin.

And yeah, wow, that's right. Not Berlin,

not just, you know, he's all the way in Berlin. And he's there for an evangelistic conference.

What they have is about a thousand Christians from all over Europe, different nations, gathering together to learn and strategize how to share the gospel, the good news, with all of Europe.

And what I love about that is that Berlin, as many of you know, was for so much of our history and world history, the symbol of division,

a wall separating east from west.

And what God does is he takes, what is division, and he makes it a breeding ground for unity and the gospel and good

news getting out.

So we want to be praying for him, but I just love that visual.

It occurred to me this morning that there's a place of unity in what used to be divisive.

And that's what he does.

We're in the business of redemption and

reconciliation, aren't we? So let's pray. And as we do, we'll pray for their efforts out there and our time

today. Lord, we do ask that you would pour your spirit upon this world. Lord, we ask that there would be a revival,

not just in our city, state, and nation, but in this world. We see through many of these trips

that Pastor Skip is on, has been on recently in Africa, this hunger for the gospel, this trip currently that

he's on in Berlin, this hunger for Christians to get out and to evangelize.

And so we ask that in 2025 you would do a new thing.

Of course, the gospel is an old thing.

It's been around for 2,000 years,

and you don't need to refresh that,
