00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01.900 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry because you're spending your
00:00:05.900 cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.740 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.860 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.380 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:19.000 And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star
00:00:29.980 review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.560 We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.
00:00:42.360 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of
00:00:47.420 God. You're listening to Daily Truth. See, brothers and sisters, we are called to fight
00:00:55.400 and laugh and feast both war and rest fight laugh feast but here's the last part the unspoken part
00:01:04.040 but the part that nonetheless probably needs to be spoken from time to time because i think we
00:01:08.600 forget it we're called the fight laugh feast together together it is not merely making it
00:01:17.960 the celestial city over the course of an afternoon and enjoying Jesus all by yourself. 0.64
00:01:24.620 We live in such an individualistic, atomistic society and such a Gnostic and pietistic society. 0.94
00:01:35.460 In other words, to speak plainly, this has worked into the culture, seeped into the culture of the 0.97
00:01:42.860 church sadly and what it means is that most christians think in terms of themselves as
00:01:49.400 individuals having a forever honeymoon with jesus and that's it that's the christian life
00:01:57.320 they don't think about war they think about romantic honeymoons they think about long
00:02:03.840 walks on the beach with jesus and two things integral things if we believe the scripture
00:02:11.220 are missing in their imagination of the Christian life
00:02:13.940 with their long walk on the beach with Jesus.
00:02:17.100 The two things that are missing are this.
00:02:19.040 One, there's no enemies on the beach.
00:02:23.200 We get to have a long walk with Jesus on the beach,
00:02:25.600 but it's kind of like the beach of Normandy.
00:02:29.520 And not in Hawaii.
00:02:32.580 So one thing that's missing is enemies.
00:02:35.320 Combat, conquest, battle, war.
00:02:39.420 the other thing that is missing is everyone else the enemies the opposition is missing
00:02:46.620 and the rest of the army your allies the church is missing it's not corporate it's isolated
00:02:55.320 it's private not corporate but private and not conquest and battle and war
00:03:03.420 but just romanticized boyfriend songs
00:03:08.560 where you replace boyfriend with Jesus.
00:03:12.140 And here we have the modern American
00:03:15.640 evangelical Christian imagination.
00:03:19.360 Can I be frank with you for just a second
00:03:21.300 right here at the end?
00:03:22.940 Look, some of you guys,
00:03:24.180 you're financially supporting this ministry
00:03:26.060 and from the bottom of my heart,
00:03:27.920 I say thank you.
00:03:29.420 I cannot thank you enough.
00:03:31.640 However, some of you, you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it.
00:03:38.800 Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our 0.91
00:03:45.600 totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID. We have
00:03:53.980 written checks that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition
00:03:59.860 of a recession. We are living in a recession right now regardless. Some of you are struggling
00:04:06.820 to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this ministry at
00:04:13.820 this time, nor should you, but you could still help us tremendously. I am asking you, please,
00:04:21.220 if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time. Leave us a five-star review on your
00:04:27.460 favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be, this is the way the
00:04:33.560 system works. We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers. We need to be strategic.
00:04:40.640 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people. And the Word of God
00:04:46.680 and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of life gets out there.
00:04:54.480 Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.
00:04:57.460 You
