I'd like to start with something funny. I heard about this church one Sunday morning. Everything

was going great until a bolt of lightning hit the sanctuary. When the smoke cleared, Satan

himself was standing behind the podium. People panicked and took off running as fast as they could.

Everyone that is except one lady. She sat on the front row as calm as can be. Satan was appalled.

He said, lady, do you know who I am? She said, I sure do. He said, well, aren't you afraid of me?

She said, not in the least fit. He said, why not? She said, why should I be?

I've been married to your brother for 30 years. Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says

I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert,

my heart is receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus name, God bless you. I want to talk to you

today about you've been chosen. I grew up playing basketball and from the time I was a little boy,

I loved the game. When I was 12 years old, we went to my grandparents' house to spend the day.

And I took my ball and walked to the park about three blocks away. There were all these guys playing.

They were in their late teens, much bigger, stronger, and better.

It's very competitive, and I was over at shooting on a goal, making sure to stay out of the way.

When the game was over, the two best players started to pick new teams.

There's about 15 people waiting.

This one captain looked around at all of his friends.
