0:00.0	Have you ever thought that for every 10 minutes you spend in your Bible each day, you spend
0:04.7	1,430 minutes outside of your Bible? So the question is, do you feel equipped to engage with
0:11.7	today's culture where you spend the vast majority of your time? The truth is, if you're a Christian,
0:17.8	you're an outsider. I know you feel like an outsider, but do you know
0:21.8	that God's called you to be an outsider? He wants you to be a joyful outsider. Now, not all
0:27.5	outsiders are the same. You can discover how God has uniquely called you to engage with today's

1:29.3	impressive feat by most standards. But LeBron's over-the-top prediction of seven championships,
1:35.2	well, it made two feel underwhelming. Why? Well, because he listed victories that hadn't
1:40.8	happened yet. He raised expectations that the team couldn't meet. Now, imagine if he'd listed
1:46.4	all those championships after winning them. That would have been a different story. That's exactly what
1:52.1	God does in Joshua chapter 12. He doesn't list victories in advance. He gives a record after the fact.
