Amen. How are we doing church doing okay? Man we have been blessed to be a blessing. Amen. And because of your generosity, our church is able to do things like that. And several series ago, one of the things we asked you to do is pray big, bold, audaciousacious prayers and one of the prayer requests was from the

nick's family that god would move in a significant way in their lives particularly with that

medical debt that they had incurred and um over the last two thousand years one of the primary

ways maybe the primary way that god answers prayer is look around it's his It's his hands and feet taking care of the people

of God and taking care of this world to demonstrate God's glory. And we are in that kind of season

right now at Christmastime. And so Merry Christmas, it's official. Christmas is here. Get the

decorations out. Put the music on, it's on,

which means we're going to be in the first couple chapters of Luke. And so if you've got your

Bibles, I hope you do, go to Luke chapter one. We are in week two of this series called He

is. Pastor Adam did a phenomenal job last week, right? How blessed are we to have such a great

teaching team of pastors that preach the Bible?

I should not be here more often because 58 people surrendered their life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Amen?

Praise God.

And so with that in mind, there's a baptism class this Sunday that is within our Discover 1122 class.

And so we would love for you 58 people,

or if you have not been baptized as a believer yet, please go to that. All right, we're going to do

baptisms in the service in January. It's a new year. You got a new life. We should put all that

together and make it happen. And so as you find your way to Luke chapter one, we're going to pick it up in verse 26, but

we're going to study Mary, because what we're trying to do here is in Luke chapter 1 and 2,

there's a bunch of individuals.

I don't want to call them characters because this is not a story.
