I really can't express to you in words how overwhelmed I am by God's grace.

Just being here this morning, what you likely don't know is I remember where I was sitting

as a college student the first time I heard a message from passion and the Lord you

used that conference to open up my eyes and my heart in an entirely new way to God's glory

in Christ and the reason I exist for God's glory in Christ.

I remember where I was sitting, it was just a draw on the ground type of moment that

changed the trajectory of my life.

I praise God for His grace to me through Louis and through passion.

I was just in my time of the Lord this morning, I was just praising God, you have and passion

and what this church is a part of and doing in all kinds of causes, you have significantly

shaped who I am.

And for that I just, I'm so grateful to God for His grace.

So the opportunity to worship you and we're willing to serve you, I just want to serve

you well with the word in the next few minutes.

So if you have a Bible and I hope you or somebody around you does, you can look on with, let

me invite you to open with me to Romans chapter 5.

This global institute we explored a lot of truths yesterday in particular that I don't

think as I was praying about this time, I don't think we're just for those who are

involved in that lab.

I believe there's a word here for this entire house.

And so, before we'd have in Romans 5, so love is a strange thing and love makes you

do strange things.
