[1341.74 --> 1342.82] anywhere else in the world |
[1342.82 --> 1343.94] and not normal |
[1343.94 --> 1344.50] for other people |
[1344.50 --> 1344.98] in our city. |
[1345.64 --> 1346.44] But it's when you get |
[1346.44 --> 1347.28] close to where |
[1347.28 --> 1348.44] the needs are |
[1348.44 --> 1349.76] that you start |
[1349.76 --> 1350.44] to think differently. |
[1351.10 --> 1351.96] It's when you really |
[1351.96 --> 1352.80] get to know people |
[1352.80 --> 1353.32] who are struggling |
[1353.32 --> 1353.80] that you start |
[1353.80 --> 1354.46] thinking differently |
[1354.46 --> 1355.16] about your finances, |
[1355.32 --> 1355.78] your resources, |
[1355.92 --> 1356.30] your home, |
[1356.40 --> 1357.18] all the rest. |
[1357.60 --> 1358.48] It's getting close |
[1358.48 --> 1359.08] to those places |
[1359.08 --> 1359.64] of brokenness |
[1359.64 --> 1360.44] where God's Spirit |
[1360.44 --> 1361.62] seems to move in us |
[1361.62 --> 1363.02] this desire to use |
[1363.02 --> 1363.68] what we've been given |
[1363.68 --> 1364.42] to bless. |
[1364.42 --> 1366.00] And you know this, |
[1366.06 --> 1366.62] whenever a team |
[1366.62 --> 1367.92] comes back from a serve trip, |
[1368.14 --> 1369.18] that's what they talk about. |
[1369.68 --> 1370.18] Whenever people |
[1370.18 --> 1371.10] come back from serving |
[1371.10 --> 1371.64] at the Clovedo |
[1371.64 --> 1372.20] Community Kitchen, |
[1372.28 --> 1373.22] it just reframes |
[1373.22 --> 1373.90] the way you see |
[1373.90 --> 1374.48] your stuff, |
[1374.82 --> 1375.38] your home, |
[1375.50 --> 1376.12] your lifestyle, |
[1376.30 --> 1377.12] because you know |
[1377.12 --> 1378.14] how it could be used |
[1378.14 --> 1379.12] to serve. |
[1380.04 --> 1381.60] And God wants us |
[1381.60 --> 1382.86] to kindle |
[1382.86 --> 1384.12] that imagination |
[1384.12 --> 1385.40] of our resources |
[1385.40 --> 1386.40] being used to bless, |
[1386.94 --> 1387.98] cultivating relationships |
[1387.98 --> 1389.16] that get us close |
[1389.16 --> 1390.04] to where the needs are. |
[1390.30 --> 1391.52] That's our calling |
[1391.52 --> 1392.78] as the church. |
[1394.42 --> 1396.36] Now finally, |
[1396.48 --> 1397.42] I want to just get right |
[1397.42 --> 1398.50] into everybody's business |
[1398.50 --> 1400.54] because I felt compelled |
[1400.54 --> 1401.16] to include this |
[1401.16 --> 1401.62] in my sermon |
[1401.62 --> 1402.56] at the last second |
[1402.56 --> 1403.80] and it's challenging to me. |
[1404.24 --> 1405.06] If you live in |
[1405.06 --> 1405.64] British Columbia, |
[1406.08 --> 1406.60] you're probably thinking |
[1406.60 --> 1408.18] as you listen to the sermon |
[1408.18 --> 1408.56] you're going to be like, |
[1409.12 --> 1410.90] how do we do this |
[1410.90 --> 1411.74] in like one of the most |
[1411.74 --> 1412.40] expensive cities |
[1412.40 --> 1412.84] in the world? |
[1413.46 --> 1414.08] And I'm thinking |
[1414.08 --> 1415.44] especially of young people |
[1415.44 --> 1415.90] right now. |
[1416.00 --> 1416.76] It's like buying a house |
[1416.76 --> 1417.44] feels impossible, |
[1417.66 --> 1418.26] paying off a car |
[1418.26 --> 1418.80] feels impossible, |
[1418.98 --> 1419.92] education is expensive, |
[1420.24 --> 1421.14] everything's expensive. |
[1421.14 --> 1422.56] And what you'll think |
[1422.56 --> 1423.34] in the back of your mind |
[1423.34 --> 1423.80] is this, |
[1423.88 --> 1424.62] because I've thought it, |
[1425.20 --> 1425.98] if I just made |
[1425.98 --> 1427.08] a little bit more money, |
[1427.94 --> 1429.86] then I'll be generous. |
[1430.04 --> 1430.88] Have you thought that before? |
[1431.82 --> 1433.46] If I got that raise, |
[1433.74 --> 1434.42] oh man, |
[1434.52 --> 1435.36] then I would give money. |
[1435.56 --> 1437.02] If I paid off my mortgage |
[1437.02 --> 1438.26] or paid off that car loan |
[1438.26 --> 1439.68] or got rid of that student debt, |
[1439.96 --> 1440.64] whatever it is, |
[1440.70 --> 1441.24] fill in the blank, |
[1441.52 --> 1442.76] then I'll be generous, |
[1443.00 --> 1443.24] right? |
[1443.90 --> 1444.74] And that is just |
[1444.74 --> 1445.98] such a dangerous lie. |
[1445.98 --> 1449.10] A year ago or so, |
[1449.32 --> 1450.22] we did a podcast |
