Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, whatever time of day it is for you, friends.

I welcome you to the morning mindset.

This is our opportunity to get our minds aligned with the dream of God.

As we head into the new year, I want to remind you once again of our nonprofit, not a new

person.

If you have urine giving needs that you need to give for tax purposes, this is a great

opportunity for you to meet very real needs through a donation of any size.

You can even set up recurring donations in our any need funds so that we can use those

funds as needed to meet the needs that come our way.

You can find out more at not anyperson.org.

Now, today I want to talk to you about joy because you have the right perspective about

your circumstance and your situation.

I have a friend I've known for many years.

His name is Greg Stier.

He leads a ministry called Dare to Share.

It's an evangelism training ministry for teenagers teaching youth ministers and the teens

they lead how to share their faith in ways that bring other students to no Christ.

It's a great opportunity for you to get involved.

You can find out more at dare to share the number two share.org.

But the reason I bring up Greg is because Greg at some of his events when he's training

students teaches them that you are going to be persecuted when you go out and you share

your faith.
