Hi, it's Louis Gaglio, coming to you from Atlanta, Georgia, and I just wanted to say welcome to

the Passion City Church message podcast. It's just awesome just to be able to say hello to everyone

personally and to say how honored and how humbled we are that you are on this Passion City Church

journey with us. So for the next few weeks, we hope that you'll join with us as we replay a

series of messages that we did called us. And these three talks really just capture the vision

and the DNA of Passion City Church, the way that we want to be positioned and poised in the midst

of culture to make the greatest possible impact for Jesus in our generation. And so dive in. I hope

you'll enjoy if you've heard the messages before. I'm sure God will speak to you in a new way,

but a lot of you may not have heard these and this will just help reframe the whole direction that

we want to be moving in as a church together. And so enjoy the series us and then we'll be back with

you with live messages from Passion City Church in just a few weeks. Thank you again for being in

it with us. We are more than humbled to have a small part in what God is doing in your lives,

we just pray favor and grace over you in every way as you seek to make your lives count

for the stuff that matters most. So enjoy us. We'll be back with you soon. Take care.

says the power and potential to people of God for the greater good of a whole wide world.

And what I'm just trying to say, what our teams trying to say in these few weeks together,

is that we're going somewhere as a community. We're building a community and forging a culture.

And it's important, it's essential really, as we're in these formative steps of Passion City Church

to understand that we're building a community, not an event. And I know an event is kind of what

we have right now, but that's not what we're building. Eventually we're building a community.

And we're forging a culture, which means all of us as we're sort of melting into this
