What's up, Upper Room podcast. Peter Lewis here, and I had the privilege of speaking this last weekend on discipleship.

Listen, if I were to ask you this question, that's sort of a test before you listen to this episode,

what is the goal of discipleship? What is the end goal of discipleship?

I want you to write your answer down.

Think about it.

I really believe this message is going to ground you, give you clarity as you enter into this

Christmas season and into the new year.

May you be strengthened and blessed by this week's message.

I love you guys so much.

Keep running.

Good morning. Upper Room. Happy belated Thanksgiving. Was it good? You full still? Good. You did it right? We're thankful.

Thankful that we live in a country that celebrates Thanksgiving.

All right, we're going to open the Word of God.

If you have your Bible, go to either Ephesians 3 or Matthew 28.

Let's pray.

Father, thank you for this morning.

Thank you for the opportunity just to worship you. God, to see you, to behold you.

Thank you for this house, Lord. Thank you for time and space to seek you this morning, God. I thank you for every life, every heart in this room, every heart watching online. Father, I'm asking

Holy Spirit that you would meet us, that you would open the eyes of

our heart to see you, that we would know you more, God. Those of us who, maybe during worship,

we're having a hard time staying focused, Lord, open the eyes of our heart that we may see you

and that worship would flow, that our lives would become one long act of worship.
