Hey guys, thanks for checking out this Bible teaching.

Every week release a podcast that corresponds to the sermon. It's like a little bit of a deeper dive, where we hit some things that didn't make it into the sermon, some theological concepts. We talk about things that are going on in our culture and how to think about them from a biblical perspective. We call that podcast Live Free. An episode releases every Monday that corresponds to the sermon. If you would like to check

out Live Free, just go to the Lake Point YouTube channel and look for the podcast tab there.

We'll see you at Live Free. Now, enjoy this Bible teaching. All right. Hey, Lake Point family.

It's really good to gather with you. If you got your Bibles, head over to Acts chapter 28 because ladies and gentlemen, here's what's happening today. We are finishing 40-ish weeks through the Book of Acts today. Come on, man. Here we go. We're finishing up, man. First by verse to the Book of Acts, it's been awesome. Let me tell you what's going on right here. I'm really excited about this. So I grew up watching, I'm an 80s baby, the 90s maybe, I grew up watching the greatest

basketball player who has ever lived. And if you thought of anybody besides Michael Jordan,

hold up five fingers, make a fist, punch yourself in the face. You are wrong. It was Michael

Jordan was always great, but 96 Jordan was another level. The apostle Paul, listen,

was the greatest disciple of Jesus Christ who ever lived. The greatest disciple of Jesus Christ who ever lived.

The greatest disciple of Jesus Christ who ever lived.

Paul.

Acts 28, Paul, is the greatest version of Paul we ever get exposed to.

So just go with me on the weird 90s analogy.

96 Jordan, Acts 28, Paul. Just go with just go with me okay now what's going to happen

in this chapter let me set it up like this because it is paul's pinnacle message it is the quintessential

moment in paul's life where he draws on 30 years of discipleship supernatural experiences being

disciples by people seeing j Jesus face to face in

incarnational appearances, all these things. And in this chapter, it's his quintessential message.

And let me set it up like this. In my opinion, the greatest sermon I've ever heard was 10, 15 years ago, and it was at a pastor's conference.

I won't say what conference. There's some details to protect the innocent and the guilty.
