You are listening to Radical with David Platt, a weekly podcast with sermons and messages from

pastor, author, and teacher David Platt.

If you have a Bible, and I hope you do, I want to invite you to open with me to Luke

Chapter 16.

I invite you to pull out the notes that are in the worship guide that you received when

you came in as well.

I'm thankful for Chris Nichols preaching the word in my absence last week had a few good days away with my family

and had the opportunity to baptize a cousin of mine. But miss you, miss you greatly. I'm thankful for you.

I'm thankful for the opportunity to be your pastor.

And I'm thankful for the opportunity to serve alongside men like Chris Nichols.

We were halfway through the series on Radical, what the gospel demands, and we're looking

at seemingly startling words from Jesus, tough words from Jesus, life, shifting, challenging

words from Jesus, and as we're processing through these words,

we've set up a couple of times to have some dialogue,

just some question and answer kind of time

where you can ask me any questions that you're wrestling with

and just get my perspective on things based on our study in the word.

And I think the first one of those is October 15th.

On Wednesday night, 6.30 in the word and I think the first one of those is October 15th on Wednesday night at 630 in the student center and then we're going to have another one probably on a Sunday evening

for those of you who either serve on Wednesdays or are not able to be there for that and so we'll let

you know about the exact date for the Sunday evening one and both of those will be online if you're not able to

attend those.
