| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Leading the Way. This is the International Bible Teaching Ministry of Dr. Michael |
| 0:06.3 | Youssef, and he is the author of more than 50 books, including his most recent culture-challenging |
| 0:13.0 | title and Unholy Alliance. Now, up next, Dr. Youssef examines how today's church is struggling for relevance in a culture that's |
| 0:22.6 | becoming more and more distance from faith and truth. So maybe you wonder how your gifts fit |
| 0:29.3 | into God's plan for your family, your church, your community, and your world. Today, on leading |
| 0:35.8 | the way, Dr. Yusef helps you see and take your place in making |
| 0:40.8 | real life impact for the kingdom. Listen, as Dr. Youssef begins this episode of leading the way. |

| 0:56.6 | of your life? He or she would have told you within split seconds, it is to glorify God and |
| 1:02.2 | enjoy him forever. Today, many adults cannot give you such eloquent and high and lofty answer. |

| 1:28.1 | in our lives. Period. And God's ultimate purpose, who should be the result of working |
| 1:34.3 | his plan and purpose in every one of us, is that we may bring glory to the name of God. |
| 1:39.3 | And so that His name be lifted up among the nations. That is the ultimate goal of the plan of God |
| 1:46.1 | and the purpose of God in each individual who is listening to me right now. Now, to be sure, |
| 1:52.0 | there are blessings, there are benefits, there are glorious things that come to us as a result |
| 1:59.4 | of us not only knowing but fulfilling the purpose of God |
| 2:03.6 | in our lives. Yes, that is a fact. Nobody can deny that. But the problem is when we allow the |
| 2:11.1 | benefits and the blessings to become an end in themselves, we not only wrong God, not only we fail God, but we fail ourselves. |
| 2:22.3 | But that's not all. When we fail to discover and obey the purpose and the plan of God |
