A All right. What's up, Church of the Highlands, every location, all of our correctional facilities.

I am typically on the other side of the camera. I'm always at campuses, but I am

honored to be here at Grants Mill. And so I want to encourage every campus, every

correctional facility, and right here at Grants Mill. Let's all give each other a hand, a big

hand, and welcome everybody to church today. It's going to be an awesome day. My name is Lane Shrands. If you don't know

who I am, I've had the amazing privilege to being at Highlands. My wife and I are celebrating our

25th year at Highlands. We were here at the very beginning, a part of the launch team, and I get to

serve Pastor Mark as one of our elders of our church, and then I also get to lead Highlands

College Leadership Institute, which is the part of Highlands College, which is for you, for

professional working adults. And so I'm honored to get to finish up this series. Let's talk about

it. And I'm so thankful and honored that Pastor Mark would ask me to speak today as we close out the series, which by the way, next week, he's going to be here. He's going to start a brand new series. And I was thrilled like, yeah, I'm happy to do it. I'm excited to do it. What's my topic? What are we going to talk about? And it didn't land so well with me because i was like oh oh oh

that's that's a that's a tough one i don't know that i've i've really ever really mastered this one

and it is one of the things that you listed at easter our entire church went on the app and

gave message topics that you would like to learn about. And this one is how to share your

faith. And I was like, man, could we get something that maybe I'm, I feel like I'm really,

really, really good at? And so this is an area that I've worked on my whole life as a believer,

just trying to grow in this area and trying to get better at sharing my faith.
