I have

got to tell you that I have stared at that brick wall so many times and I can't tell you how often my wife and I have woken up on vacation out of town and just join fresh life, you know, for church on a Sunday morning

or I can't tell you how often I have just needed a word from the Lord and have just come to this church.

The first time in person to be here, but man, how often

we have joined your church body and been a part of this?

Recently, a church that I'm a teaching pastor at I teach about

15-20 Sundays a year at we just finished a series on the Common Creed on the

Apostles Creed and every week we were pickled in Levi Lusco's

Mission Series on the Common Creed.

And it was amazing.

And I'm just so grateful for Jenny and for Levi

and the whole family.

And I know people come here all the time

and say this to you, but let me just add on.

Let me just pile on, all right, on top of them

and just say, when God planted this church,

she had the nations in mind, and not just this region in mind and these different campuses in mind.

I'm so grateful for them as a couple.

God gets all the glory.

But I got to tell you you he's been a good friend

in me and the day that the Lusco's walked into the Nasser's life, our life were redder for

it. And I genuinely am just so thankful for you as a church and the way you share him.
