| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick. I'm the pastor of Elevation Church, and this is our podcast. I wanted to thank you for joining us today. |
| 0:08.1 | Hope this inspires you. Hope it builds your fate. Hope it gives you perspective to see God is moving in your life. Enjoy the message. |
| 0:17.5 | Anybody online watching this? Remember when you had to buy the cassette tape of the sermon? |
| 0:23.3 | Yeah, man. You have to wait. If you wanted a sermon online, you had to order it. There was no online. You had to call up and order it and wait six weeks. But I got good news. You don't have to wait six weeks. Welcome to our eFAM all over the world. Come on |
| 0:40.3 | Valentine. Help me welcome our EFAM all over the world. |
| 0:48.3 | Perchance, you missed it. We're celebrating the end of the year. We're not dreading the holidays. We're just |
| 0:54.9 | getting ready to give God praise and thanks here at our church. We end our year with a year-end |
| 1:00.9 | offering. And I want all of you to be a part of it. And you say, well, I don't live in Charlotte. |
| 1:06.4 | You don't have to. You say, well, I don't have much to give. You don't have to have much to give. I want |
| 1:11.8 | everybody to be a part of it. And our culmination Sunday is on December the 8th, so between now and then, |
| 1:18.4 | I want you to pray and ask God how He would have you to be a part. And if the way that he would |
| 1:23.2 | have you to be a part is just to keep coming to church. I want you to know we will always be here |
| 1:28.5 | for you whether you give anything to this ministry or not. You ought to clap about that. |
| 1:39.0 | Because they don't tell you that at the gym. You can just come in and lift our weights, |
| 1:42.3 | whether you ever give anything or not, do they? When's the last time you went to a restaurant and they said, whether you |
| 1:47.2 | ever give anything or not, we'll always have fresh bread for you? But the Lord is like that. |
| 1:52.6 | And I want to say something else. There are thousands of people who are generous in this |
| 1:57.1 | church. And they give and they serve and they sow and they believe and they're consistent. |
| 2:04.0 | And I thank God for each and every one of you. I'm so grateful. |
| 2:13.3 | Trust me, when I step up to this pulpit, I'm never stepping up here by myself. |
| 2:17.7 | I mean, there's an army of people in this church who love Jesus, who love the kingdom, and who are committed to his purpose. |
| 2:25.5 | And so we want to invite all of you. |
