This past week, Terry and I got away with our kids and our grandkids, and so I was just enjoying time with all of them, and so therefore, I didn't do my homework.

I didn't study for today. You know how it is? Like when you were going to school and you thought it was going to snow the next day for church, so I prepared in advance.

I knew I wasn't going to be working on a teaching during the week that I was away with the family.

So I prepared in advance, and my good friend Dr. Irwin Lutzer is with us today.

Now, Dr. Lutzer, yeah, you can give him applause.

Dr. Lutzer. Yeah, you can give him a applause. Dr. Lutzer pastored the infamous Moody Church for 36 years in Chicago, Illinois, a church that

has reached tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people around the world.

Moody Church was really the vision of D.L. Moody, and great pastors have

been there, including Dr. Lutzer, and before him, Warren Weirsby, Alan Redpath, H.A. Ironside.

It's a great church that continues to thrive. He is now Pastor Emeritus of Moody Church there in Chicago.

He has written many books, and his latest book is called No Reason to Hide, No

Reason to Hide, subtitled Standing for Christ in a Collapsing Culture.

It's a very timely book, and in fact, Harvest House Pub publishing loves us so much that they have given free

500 of his books to us as a church. We've divided those up over our three morning services,

and so we have some to give away free today in the atrium. First come first serve. Don't stampede

over people like a sale at walmart okay um be christian

about it but while supplies last we do have some free copies one book per household now we'll let

you know especially our online viewers since you're not here to get a book um we will let you know

how you can purchase it when the free books run out.

So I'll tell you more information about that later in our time together.

But the format is going to be this.

I'm going to interview Dr. Lutzer for the first like 15 minutes or so,
