When the world seems to grow darker and darker, when corruption and violence and hate and prejudice

continue to grow, God does something unusual. He's looking for a man, he's looking for a woman,

to stand in the gap to make a difference. Would you like to be that person? Stay with me.

Thanks for listening to this edition of Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram.

We are an international teaching and discipleship ministry that motivates Christians to live like Christians.

And in just a minute, we'll wrap up our series, I Choose Love.

Today he'll examine God's criteria for using people and why he often uses some more than others.

Well, Chip has a lot to share today, so let's dive right into this insightful message,

Go in your Bible to Philippians chapter 2, beginning in verse 19.

I want to share something with you because there's something that God and Teresa have in common.

Are you ready for this?

They're both always shopping.

When Teresa and I are hanging around downtown Las Gattas, if we go away for a little weekend,

if we sometimes I travel to Atlanta and there's a number of shops there,

new shoes, new dress. She's shopping for grandkids. I mean, there's a birthday like every third day

and then anniversary. So wherever we go, she'll walk in and go, oh, and then she'll tell me, for this season,

this would be perfect for, and then she'll name one of the grandkids and tell me why.

Here's what I want you to know.

She cares about each child in its season, and she wants to get the very thing

that would help them be an experience the very best.
