Thank you.

It's great to be here with you.

We've had a great time in Alaska and had a great privilege of teaching this morning.

And then I heard, hey, you could do something different tonight.

So I might have a sermon.

We'll find out in about an hour when this is all over.

What I do have is an idea, something I've been thinking about, praying about, studying

and about.

And I thought I'd share it with you.

And at the end, you could tell me if it was helpful.

So if you've got a Bible, go to Proverbs chapter 1 and I'll pray.

Father God, thank you so much for an opportunity to be here with some new friends in Alaska.

Thank you for the hospitality, the grace, the kindness that's been extended to my wife,

Grace and I thank you that we could get her.

Birthday weekend away in such a beautiful place with such kind people.
