Amen and amen. Isn't that awesome folks?

Hey, if you got your Bible, hope you do, grab it, go to Second Timothy.

As you know, we are in this journey.

We call the one initiative where we're really just rooted in the shemah.

The Lord of God, the Lord is one.

And we're asking ourselves this question over and over and over.

Is he the one thing that drives everything?

And the way that plays out for us

is that we're one church. We exist to reach one more and especially one more generation. And we believe

God has laid on our heart as a segment of that one more generation that it is God's calling in our

life to roll out the red carpet for families that have children with special needs. And so a big part of what the one

initiative is in regards to families with special needs is this night to shine. And so I need

you to be there. I know all the campus pastors just announced that, but join me because just

like you heard in that video, man, there have been people that looked at these children or folks with

special needs and said some very, very terrible things. And we are going to stand face to face

with these folks, eyeball to eyeball on the red carpet and say some very wonderful things.

We're going to say, God loves you and God has a plan and a purpose for your life,

and we love you, and we are glad that you are here tonight.

Amen?

That's what we're going to do.

And so, a part of what we're going to do, too, like the campus pastor just mentioned,

this Friday, we're going to go watch a hockey game together
