Hey, don't start clicking off. I promise we're going to get to the preaching in just a moment,

but I'm excited about this. This is a very special tradition at elevation.

And we want to speak to all of you who call our church home, especially our extended family,

our e-fam around the world, because once a year we have a special series, it's really more than a

collection of teachings. It's a faith experience for all of the people who are part of our ministry at

elevation. And this year our theme is game changer. I think one of the most exciting things that God is doing in our ministry

is to open the doors of our ministry beyond our walls. What I mean by that is we are amazed at the thousands and

thousands and thousands of you who are letting us know that you're impacted by this ministry.

In another zip code, in another state, in another country, maybe eventually on another planet.

But what I wanted to mention to you is that you can be a part of this beyond just consuming.

Many of you have been blessed by God to be a blessing. And I wanted to ask today,

would you be willing during this special time of year to make a one-time donation to the ministry,

or maybe partner with us on a monthly basis through recurring giving?

I believe God could use your gift to enable this ministry to continue to reach,

to continue to break paradigms, to continue to lift up Jesus. And I wanted to ask you personally to go to elevationchurch.org,

and you can see the ways to give there. But most importantly, know that we feel a tremendous sense of responsibility to minister the word of God,

not only to you, but to challenge you, to partner with us in reaching people for the gospel.

I believe your gift today could be a game changer. So don't put it off. Right now, elevationchurch.org, you can find all of the details.

I hope you enjoy this message, and thank you for being a part of the family.

Excited to start a new series with you. The series is called Game Changer.

The goal of this series is to increase your faith. And the way you increase your faith is to stretch,

and to obey God in practical ways. And so we're going to do that over the next few weeks.
