So glad to be back. I got to be with you in January. And yes, summer's different in Montana.

So I understand you now. I didn't understand you in January. I understand you in August.

This is beautiful. It's beautiful. I absolutely loved it. It is such a joy to be back. So thank you,

Pastor Levi, Pastor Jenny, for having me. I'd love getting to be here with you all.

Today, I want to tell you a story of my own

sin. So that sounds fun, right? I want to tell you a story of my own sin. I want to tell you a parable

that God used to rescue my life and continues to use. And I also want to give you this opportunity

to be rescued as well.

When I was a freshman at the University of Georgia, Go dogs, I came home for Thanksgiving,

as many of us do, and I was with my family again for the first time since I had left for school.

To give you a little background, I'm the oldest of my siblings. The sister right next to me

is only 15 months younger than me. And so she and I came up together, real neck and neck in life

experience and in age. She's given me permission to share the story before you're like, Annie,

she said I could share all this. But I became a Christian when I was five. I knew what I was doing. I

totally meant it. And as we grew up, my sister did not walk with God until she was 13, so I was 15.

And so it had been about a decade of me living with her, and she was not great to live with.

She would tell you that her childhood was really hard and

it was not a great experience for me. When she turns 13 and gets saved, she has a radical

transformation. She is different after she meets Jesus. But do you know what I was saying

to everybody? Do you'all remember Thursday?

She was awful to me on Thursday. I know it's Sunday, but how have we all forgotten?

Everybody was so thrilled, and I was like, do you all remember who she was a minute ago?
