Well, welcome. It's good to see all of you. Debbie and I, as you know, took a few weeks off at the end of the year and we are refreshed and ready to go.

And I'll begin a series next weekend called my best friend, the Holy Spirit.

So we're going to talk about the Holy Spirit for six weeks beginning next weekend.

And so please be here for that. Welcome to the South Lake campus.

Welcome North Richland Hills campus. Welcome to those who are in

overflow right now and those watching on the web glad that you're here. We're

beginning our first conference. Now not our first conference, but our first

conference. Our conference called first.

Our conference called first.

It's where we give the first of our year to the Lord.

And tonight at 6 p.m.

Marcus Lamb, I notice Marcus is right down here on the front row.

Marcus and Joni are members of Gateway Church.

Marcus and Joni founded the Daystar Television Network. All of us watch that, we're blessed by the programs.

It is the fastest growing Christian Television Network in the world.

And Debbie and I have gotten to know Marcus and Joanie very well, great friends, and we are so impressed

with their love for the Lord, their humility and their integrity and their desire to get

the word all over the world.

So you'll love hearing Marcus tonight at six,

tomorrow night at seven.
