Hey, good morning.

We are the sales.

My name is Barrett, and this is my wife, Christina.

We love you too.

We get to serve in Kids Village, and Christina also serves in student ministries.

There was a time in our marriage where we compared ourselves against each other and kept score.

But because of Jesus' mercy and his grace in our marriage, he's humbled our hearts so that we can love and serve each other with joy.

Our scripture today comes from Psalm 27 verses 4 through 6. I have asked one thing from the Lord.

It is what I desire to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, gazing on the beauty of the

Lord and seeking him in his temple. For he will conceal me in his shelter in the day of adversity.

He will hide me under the cover of his tent. He will set me high on a rock, then my head will be high above my enemies around me.

I will offer sacrifices in his tent with shouts of joy. I will sing and make music to the Lord.

This is the word of the Lord.

Thanks to God.

Hey, good morning. It's good to see you. If you have your Bibles, go ahead and grab them.

If you don't have a Bible, there's a hardback black one somewhere in the seat in front of you.

And this will be our primary passage. We have grown a ton over the past year. And so what I want to do with our time together,

it's going to be a little bit shorter. Hold the giggle because we've got a lot of baptisms,

and I want to want you to hear the testimonies of some of those. I want to just kind of remind you of what kind of church we are, what we're about, what our hopes are,
