We're calling Wild Blue Yonder.

Wild Blue Yonder, and we are so excited about it.

And I just want to kind of give you a roadmap of where we're going. There's a statement that if you come around the church

long enough you're gonna hear us refer to. It's one of our core values and we

unpack these in Crash Course every single week as people kind of are coming on to the

on-ramp of being a part of Fresh Life Church but we say that we risk the ocean

like what's what makes fresh life unique or what makes us distinct. Well one of the things that we really value is that we risk the ocean and it comes from a verse in Ecclesiasties that is just so near to my heart.

Here's what it says.

Ecclesiasties 11.

Is Solomon speaking.

He said, cast your bread.

Someone say cast your bread.

Upon the waters. For you will find it after many days.

You're like what does that mean and why would I want to find my soggy bread?

Okay so here's here's the thing. It sounds like a verse about feeding ducks and that's what I thought it was at first until I did a little digging on Solomon and what he built and this amazing shipping enterprise that under him flourished and began to thrive and became just a powerhouse.

Israel's always been just an agricultural phenomenon.

I mean they're able to grow things and still to this day

they're able to grow so many different things in Israel but but in this period of

time one of the things they really began to export was grain.

And so when he says, cast your bread out on the waters,

he's talking about sending out boats just full of grain

so that you can trade for other things, things that you couldn't get otherwise.
