Thank you, Pastor Joel. I appreciate the height of this podium. We have some pastors at our church

who are about 6'5, and normally I'm reaching and leaning in so that I can get to the microphone,

but they made this one short. Joel actually has to lean down, which is also quite interesting.

As we look at everything that's going on in our culture, it's an encouragement to me.

You know, we've heard Dusty speak.

We've heard Joel.

We've heard Pastor Brian.

What an encouragement that God has not left his church in the dark without teachers or alone.

Amen?

At this point, let's pray. I want to pray for us, and then we'll get

started on today's talk, which will be recovering a vision for biblical patriarchy. Let's pray.

Father, we thank you so much for the souls gathered here. We thank you that you are faithful to your

bride, to the church.

God, we ask that you would continue to build her up in faithfulness. Lord, we thank you,

especially for the men gathered here, that you have made them bold. We thank you for dusty Divers

for his faith, that he's willing to put into action we pray for his family as well

god would you give them courage as they are fighting literally demonic powers would you put your

arms and your angels around them would you protect them father would you also inspire other men to

be raised up that they too may be courageous, that they may fight the

good fight of the faith. Lord, and help us to see that our generations are brought to you.

God, we ask all these things in the high name of Jesus Christ, our king. Amen. Amen. Well, I want to

begin this talk again on biblical patriarchy, everybody's favorite doctrine,
