Hi, I'm Erwin McManus and I want to welcome you to the Mosaic Podcast. I want to also bring

into some exciting things that are happening here. If you go to the Mosaic app, you will learn

about our conference coming up this year, about MSC's new album and their tour across the

country and you can learn how to connect and be more involved in mosaic in so many

different ways and by the way we now have the mosaic YouTube channel and you

go access not only these talks but

other fresh and new materials that are being created specifically for that

channel and so if you want to be connected in a richer and fuller way, not only be a part of the

podcast, get to the moussai gap, and get to the channel. And we'll see you there. Oh, Oh, I'm going to go. Oh, Oh, It's been a crazy week for me.

I've been all over the map it seems that on Monday or so I was here in

LA but then I left for Phoenix and I went to Phoenix and came back to LA and

then I went from LA to Houston and then I went from Houston to Jacksonville and I went from Jacksonville to DC and last night I flew from DC home and so it's been it's been a crazy week but but maybe the highlight moment was when I was in Phoenix they

had the highest recorded temperature in their life and it was 120 degrees

and Phoenix and I flew out of Phoenix with 120 and an hour later it was landing in LA and it was 70. There was a 50 degree drop in

temperature. I literally escaped from hell and I made it back to the promised land and you know

maybe you've had a bad attitude this week maybe you've been upset about the

traffic or you've been hocking at people that

are texting when they should be driving.

But I want you to remember you do not live in Phoenix.

And so you should be overwhelmed with gratitude. And if you're here here and you're our guest and you're from Phoenix and you feel offended

Just remember you're actually here in LA and that's why you're here.

And we're so glad you joined us.
