Hey TVC, for our last weekend of guest preachers,

is Ross Lester Ross, is at the Austin Stone down in Austin.

You will pick up on very quickly that is accent is not from Austin,

but I'll let him tell you that story.

He's the preaching pastor at the Austin Stone.

Welcome to the stage, Ross Lester.

Morning Village Church, I know we've just met,

but I need to ask you a favor.

We have some people who are outside,

currently don't have a seat who need to get a seat.

So if you have an open seat in the middle of your row,

why don't you just squish in, just move in and take up some of that space

and that's going to help the usher to seat the people who are waiting outside

to get a seat.

Church is the same all over the world,

if you guys actually obeyed, so praise the Lord.

When I say stuff to the people at the stone,

they're just like, don't tell me what to do.

And so you guys listen, thank you.
