Today's talk comes from Pastor Ben Stewart.

Well, this morning I want to ask and answer a question

that I believe all of us who live in DC

have asked in one way or another at some time.

And the question is, how do I get in? Because I think you know DC is kind of a VIP culture, right? And so there's

something in us that goes if there's a place that's exclusive and awesome, how do I get in?

Like I remember for me once I met a guy and he took me to this building and we got to go all the way to the top of the roof and get this spectacular view of the city.

I was like, all right, yeah, this is awesome.

And as soon as I was up there, I saw a roof that was just a little bit taller

and had a chair sitting on it and I was like, well how do I get there? Someday I will sit in that chair.

I don't know how, but I'm coming for you because if it's selective and awesome, I want it.

How do I get in?

And some of you feel that on the streets.

You go whatever, it's the hottest restaurant right now.

Which one just got the Michelin Star?

Which one's hard to get into? I want in. How do I get a

a reservation? Do I got to go online? Do I got to tip the host? What do I got to do to get in?

Or at some of you, it's the club. Down the street. And you go you go hey who gets past the velvet rope man do I get to know somebody do I got to wear a certain outfit who gets in and if you do get into the club then you see the VIP section with the nice couches and you're like well who gets in there?
