I plan the devotional real which is an acronym relevant engaging authentic life.

I plan to do that back in the summer.

I just feel like God's leading us to start the devotion that way and to start with an emphasis on evangelism.

And then I just pray over who's supposed to be at first at the conference who's supposed to speak and two of our speakers, Nick Hall and Rice Brooks, they're evangelists.

one day you you okay so but if you don give, if you don't have any children at home right now, maybe you're not
