Texas Housers' top researchers Erin Hahn and Sidney Beaty join A Little Louder to talk about their new interactive projects. The San Antonio Renter Profiles track the costs of renting, who lives where, and challenges that tenants in San Antonio face. The Harris County Eviction Mapping Tool investigates and maps where and how evictions happen, who is affected by them and who is most frequently ordering them. Both Hahn and Beaty break down what they are seeing in large metros like San Antonio and Houston, and explore what it will take to create real change for low-income tenants.
I. THE CALL FROM THE GRAVE"When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, 'Lazarus, come out!' The dead man came out..." John 11:43-44aOnly Christ's voice has power over spiritual death (cf. John 5:25)“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day. John 6:44Augustine noted: Jesus called Lazarus by name, lest all the dead ariseApplication: Your salvation began with Christ's specific call to you (Give reference to people's lightbulb moment)Lazarus heard and obeyed while still dead—this is graceFaith is the dead hearing the voice of the living GodModern parallel: We respond to Christ while still spiritually bound"Your grave clothes do not define you—Christ does.""...his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face." John 11:44bTheologically: The "old man" that Scripture says we must put off (Eph. 4:22-24)22 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Author Andrea Beaty discusses how her STEM background and storytelling created Rosie Revere, a character who teaches children that failure is part of inventing and learning. The episode explores ways to attract and retain young people in STEM—starting early with books, community programs, and hands-on projects—and the importance of showing kids they belong in science and engineering. Beaty shares examples of how narrative helps children identify as engineers and scientists, mentions literacy and local partnerships as effective strategies for industry involvement, and highlights related resources like project books. She also previews her new picture book "Billie Jean Pete, Athlete," emphasizing curiosity, resilience, and the idea that every experience builds useful skills for the future.

In our age of instant everything—instant texting, instant coffee, instant results—we've largely forgotten the power of the slow, steady work of faithfulness. We swipe when relationships get difficult, quit when jobs get challenging, and abandon commitments when they stop feeling convenient. We live in a culture that has trained us to expect immediate gratification and to move on the moment things require effort or sacrifice.Matthew 25:14-15Matthew 25:20-21Matthew 25:24-28I. FAITHFULNESS IS A CHOICE, NOT A FEELING"Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful."1 Corinthians 4:2 Quoteable Statement: "Faithfulness isn't about feeling like it - it's about following through when you don't feel like it."Everyone wants to be a beast, but they don't want to do what beasts do….“It is required of a man that he be faithful, not successful.” Howard Hendricks, "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much." Luke 16:10 Quoteable Statement: "God uses small tests to prepare us for big assignments. If you're not faithful with a borrowed car, why would He give you your own business?"Illustrations:Joseph was faithful as a servant before becoming prime ministerDavid was faithful with sheep before leading IsraelJesus was faithful to earthly parents as a carpenter before his heavenly missionGod called me to preach…. Where I am invited, if possible, I will go… Small stages lead to bigger ones.Three Areas Where Faithfulness Counts:Time - Are you on time? Do you keep your word about schedules?Money - Do you pay your bills? Return what you borrow? Give what you promise?Relationships - Do you keep confidences? Show up when promised? Follow through on commitments?Quoteable Statement: "Little acts of faithfulness are the building blocks of a trustworthy life." "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things.'"Matthew 25:21 -Quoteable Statement: "Faithfulness is the soil where God grows bigger opportunities."The Faithfulness-Fruitfulness Cycle:Faithfulness builds trustTrust creates opportunitiesOpportunities produce influenceInfluence generates impactBiblical Examples:Ruth's faithfulness to Naomi led to marriage with BoazDaniel's faithfulness in exile led to positions of powerMary's faithfulness to God's call led to mothering the MessiahModern Application: Every person of great impact started with small acts of faithfulnessQuoteable Statement: "God isn't looking for your ability - He's looking for your availability and reliability."Three Questions to Ask Yourself:What small thing is God asking me to be faithful in right now?Growth group….Where have I been unfaithful that I need to make right?What big thing might God be preparing me for through small acts of faithfulness?Final Quoteable Statement: "Your faithfulness today determines your fruitfulness tomorrow. Don't despise small beginnings - God doesn't."II. FAITHFULNESS STARTS IN THE SMALL THINGS (8 minutes)III. FAITHFULNESS PRODUCES FRUITFULNESS (7 minutes)IV The Faithfulness Test

1. UNDERSTANDING BIBLICAL GOODNESS I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with knowledge and competent to instruct one another. Romans 15:14Goodness Is More Than Being NiceGreek word agathos: Active benevolence that seeks others' welfareGoodness confronts what's wrong and promotes what's rightKingdom Principle: God's goodness always acts for His glory and others' benefitOnly God is inherently good Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.(Mark 10:18)When you're born again, God's nature becomes your natureSpiritual Reality: You don't try to be good - you express the goodness already in you"Stop trying to manufacture what God has already deposited.""You can't live the Christian life on human horsepower - you need Holy Spirit power.""The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you - start acting like it."Niceness avoids conflict; goodness addresses problemsJesus was good when He cleansed the templeThe Standard: Divine goodness, not cultural politeness"Niceness is about avoiding conflict; goodness is about lovingly confronting what's wrong. (start with yourself though)You can't manufacture spiritual fruit through willpowerThe Problem: Trying to live the Christian life in human strengthThe Solution: Don't try harder - yield deeper.""His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life"You're a partaker of the divine natureKingdom Truth: God doesn't ask you to do what He hasn't equipped you to do"Apart from me you can do nothing" (John 15:5)Goodness flows from intimacy with ChristSpiritual Discipline: Stay connected to the Vine (Emphasize practicing God's presence even in communion today…. Goodness comes from God when you draw near to him19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. Exodus 33:19Goodness in your thought life - thinking on things that are pureGoodness in your speech - words that build upPersonal Application: Let God's goodness govern your private moments"Stop trying to manufacture what God has already deposited.""You can't live the Christian life on human horsepower - you need Holy Spirit power.""The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you - start acting like it."Goodness that forgives when others hurt youGoodness that serves even when it's not convenientJoseph's goodness turned his brothers' evil into God's gloryBiblical Example: How goodness redeemed a broken familyKingdom Strategy: God uses your goodness to accomplish His purposesRelational Truth: God's goodness in you blesses othersApplication on prayer for Gods goodnessBeing salt and light in a corrupt worldStanding for righteousness even when it costs youCultural Impact: One person walking in God's goodness can change an environmentGoodness Is a Divine AttributeGoodness Versus Niceness2. THE SOURCE OF SPIRITUAL GOODNESS3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. 2 Peter 1:3-4It's Not Human EffortIt's Divine NatureIt's Through Abiding3. THE EXPRESSION OF GODLY GOODNESS 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. Galatians 5:22-261. KIND PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHERE KINDNESS COMES FROM But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, Titus 3:4-5God showed us kindness first - we don't earn it, we receive itApplication: You can only give what you've receivedPractical: Start each day remembering how God has been kind to you. Explain how you pray/meditate on the fruit of the Spirit2. KIND PEOPLE CHOOSE TO BE KIND EVEN WHEN IT'S HARD But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Luke 6:35Real kindness costs something - time, energy, pride, moneyIt's easy to be kind to kind people; Jesus calls us to moreApplication: Kindness is a choice, not a feelingPractical: This week, show kindness to someone who's been difficultKindness is love in work clothes."The Point: The businessman had knowledge, success, and resources. But the custodian had something more powerful - a heart transformed by God's kindness. His kindness wasn't just polite behavior; it was the overflow of someone who had experienced grace.The Application: True kindness doesn't depend on your circumstances, your status, or how others treat you. It flows from understanding how lavishly God has treated you. When you've been forgiven much, you can't help but show mercy to others."We love because he first loved us" 1 John 4:19. Our kindness is simply a reflection of the kindness we've received from God."As we have opportunity, let us do good to all people..."Opportunities are everywhere when you have "kind eyes."Small acts create a big impactApplication: Be intentionally aware of the needs around youPractical: CONEXPO Sign Up! Relationships and ResponsibilitiesMarriage Kindness ChallengeGospel Turn:4. GOD'S KINDNESS ALWAYS LEADS US HOME TO HIMOr do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance? Romans 2:43. KIND PEOPLE LOOK FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE 7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. Galatians 6:7-10
Aug 10, 2025 Talk Title: Trust – A Journey of Discovery Speaker: Rev. Don BeatyHave you ever noticed how easily we trust ourselves to get it wrong—to make mistakes, fall short, or even embarrass ourselves or others? Sometimes, we believe it so strongly that we can feel like we're having a ‘bad day' before our feet even hit the floor! This Sunday, we'll explore shifting our trust from I can't to maybe I can.

Exodus 34:4-9 NIV“Patience is trusting God's timing instead of demanding your own.”“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”James 1:2-4 NIVWhat This Means: • Patience isn't about feeling calm - it's about choosing to trust • It's a decision you make before the emotion kicks in • You can choose patience even when you don't feel patientApplication:“The next time you're tempted to get impatient - whether it's with your spouse, your kids, your boss, or even God - remember this: patience is not a personality trait some people are born with. It's a choice available to every believer.”Life Connection:Story of one of children learning to tie their shoes…Think about a parent teaching a child to tie their shoes. The parent doesn't get frustrated after the third try because they understand the process takes time. God sees our spiritual growth the same way.“Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.”Romans 5:3-5What This Means: • Trials aren't meant to break you - they're meant to build you • Every test of patience is actually a gym for your faith • Maturity can't be microwaved - it must be cultivatedApplication:“God is more interested in your character than your comfort. He'll often slow down your circumstances to speed up your spiritual growth.”Life Connection:Just like physical muscles grow stronger under resistance, your spiritual muscles grow stronger when they're stretched by having to wait.Kellie's Disability: Slow Speech“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:”Ecclesiastes 3:1““For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”Isaiah 55:8-9 What This Means: • God's delays are not God's denials • His timing is always perfect, even when we can't see it • Patience positions you to receive God's best, not just something goodApplication:“Stop trying to help God out with your timeline. When you're patient, you're saying, ‘God, I trust that you know what you're doing, even when I don't understand what you're doing.'”Life Connection: Abraham waited 25 years for Isaac. Joseph waited 13 years to see his dreams fulfilled. David waited 15 years between being anointed and becoming king. God's greatest blessings often come wrapped in God's perfect timing.PRACTICAL STEPS TO GROW IN PATIENCE1. PRAY FIRST, REACT SECOND“Before you respond to that frustrating situation, take it to God first. Prayer changes your perspective before it changes your circumstances.”2. FOCUS ON WHAT GOD IS DOING, NOT WHAT HE'S NOT DOING“In every season of waiting, God is working - sometimes on your situation, sometimes on you, always for your good.”3. REMEMBER GOD'S FAITHFULNESS IN THE PAST“Keep a journal. Write down the times God came through when you had to wait. It will build your faith for the next time.”“This week, I want you to identify one area where you've been impatient - maybe it's a relationship, a career goal, a health issue, or a dream that seems delayed. Instead of demanding that God work faster, I challenge you to pray this prayer: ‘God, I trust your timing. Help me grow in patience while I wait for your perfect plan to unfold.'”POINT 1: PATIENCE IS A CHOICE, NOT A FEELINGPOINT 2: PATIENCE PRODUCES SPIRITUAL MATURITYPOINT 3: PATIENCE ALIGNS YOU WITH GOD'S PERFECT TIMING
1. PEACE WITH GOD "Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5:1The Problem: Sin separates us from GodThe Solution: Jesus bridges the gapThe Result: No more guilt, no more shame, no more fear of judgmentDo you have peace with God or peace with your sin.Some people think it means that I am okay with God now… I added him to my life I am not mad at him. THATS NOT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS (Sin)10 For if, while we were God's enemies,we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Romans 5:10 John 16:1-11 and Verse 33"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7The Problem: Worry and anxietyThe Solution: Prayer and trustThe Result: Supernatural calm that doesn't make senseAs the guard looks on through a peep hole, Bonhoeffer prays, "Lord, it's dark in me; in you is day. I am alone, but you will stay. I am afraid; you never cease. I am at war; in you is peace." Slowly we see a pair of hands reach up and touch the wall opposite of where Bonhoeffer's hands are.As dawn breaks, a single rifle shot shatters the morning calm. The same German guard, now more somber and less cynical, appears at Bonhoeffer's cell. "I thought you might like to know. The boy from the next cell—he was very calm. It surprised everyone. He was executed this morning."Illustration #2 Anxiety and fear can come from looking to things other than God for our identity and worth. God's peace as the security that comes from knowing our identity is rooted in being beloved children of God, not in our performance, others' opinions, or our circumstances. When we know who we are in Christ, we're freed from the exhausting cycle of trying to prove ourselves.Lose your job… You may lose yourselfLose your Status… You may lose yourselfLose your beauty… Lose yourselfSexuality, gender,political ideology… Lose yourselfJEsus Cals the storm> Mark 4:39“Peace be still…” Rest beneath the rest3. PEACE WITH OTHERS "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone."Romans 12:18The Problem: Broken relationshipsThe Solution: Forgiveness and loveThe Result: Harmony in your home, workplace, and community"You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you." - Isaiah 26:3"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." - Philippians 4:8Romans 12:2 be transformed to the renewing of your mind."Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." - Joshua 1:9The great command of scripture. “Fear not” 64 Times, “Be Strong and courageous” 15 timesExperiencing fear is a normal human emotion, and courage is not about not feeling fear, but rather about acting in spite of it"Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." - Colossians 3:132.

13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” k 15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other. 16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.” Galatians 5:13–26Explain the concept of Legalism and License and how they both lead to slavery… The Flesh leans toward both legalism and license1. If you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Galatians 5:17-18Legalism: When God impresses on you for your spiritual growth and you insist it upon everyone else.2. Feed the Spirit to defeat the flesh.Acts of the Flesh: Fruit of the Spirit verses doing and being…19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians 5:19-2122 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23When you serve people it feeds the SpiritReading the Bible feeds the SpiritBeing in community with Christian brothers and sisters can feed the spiritWorship (Private and Public) feeds the SpiritDeveloping the habit of prayer feeds the SpiritObedience feeds the SpiritWhen you are full of the Holy Spirit, you begin to exude these qualities: Love, joy, peace. patience ectThe Concept of taking off your grave clothes… Lazarus comes out of the tomb. Most people try and put church clothes over their grave clothes.The Bible speaks multiple times about “Putting on Christ”The Fruit of the Spirit: this series, we will journey together to help take off our graveclothes and pursue the Fruit…The Fruit of the Spirit… they are the barometer, the thermometer of your walk with GodTRUE FREEDOM: Fish out of water is free…. But it will die. The rules of nature are good for the fish…3. You can't have the Spirit unless you're born again (Gospel turn)“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, German poet and dramatist (1749-1832)

SERMON NOTES“That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. Whoever has ears, let them hear.” The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand. In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah: “ ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. For this people's heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.' But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.”Matthew 13:1-16 NIV“As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up.”Matthew 13:4 NIVJesus explains that this is those who hear but do not understand: Satan snatches them away“Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow.” Matthew 13:5 NIVThose who receive the word joyfully but fall away when trouble comes“Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.”Matthew 13:5-6 NIVThose who hear but are choked by worldly concerns and wealth“Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. Whoever has ears, let them hear.”” Matthew 13:8-9 NIVThose who hear but are choked by worldly concerns and wealthApplication:Learn Daily Disciplines: God's Word, Prayer, Fellowship, Giving, ServingGood Church: Gospel Centered, Bible Believing, Lives on Mission, Develop Christian Community: (This Takes Time)1.

Radio, today, can feel like a faithful old companion, but its early history was sensational. Between 1922 and 1939, British life was transformed by what was known as the Radio Craze. Listen In: How Radio Changed the Home (Bodleian Library, 2025) expresses what the radio's arrival signified at a personal level. This narrative history recounts the perspective of listeners who adopted the then radical form of communication technology, invested in their first-ever gadgets, and tuned in by their firesides to outside voices, music, SOS calls, the Pips, news, sports, royalty, and innovative radiogenic comedy. Listen In also traces how radio affected family life by exploring whether it altered dynamics between children and adults, changed relationships between women and men, as well as affected class and a wider sense of nationhood. Packed with touching stories and anecdotes, Listen In comes at a timely moment when traditional linear radio is shifting, and the experience of how people consume audio is once again transforming.

Send us a textDo you remember Drop Dead Gorgeous from 1999? We do and we don't. We remember that it has a stacked cast in Kristen Dunst, Denise Richards, Ellen Barkin, Kirstie Alley, Britney Murphy, Amy Adams & Allison Janney just to name a few. Seriously, there is a lot more. We also remember it being hilarious. We also think that hilarity might be very politically incorrect now. Either way, we couldn't be more excited. So join us as we go back to the end of the 90s and watch this documentary-style comedy. Do You Remember Liking This Movie?
SERMON NOTES4 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says to all those I carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 “Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. 7 Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” 8 Yes, this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “Do not let the prophets and diviners among you deceive you. Do not listen to the dreams you encourage them to have. 9 They are prophesying lies to you in my name. I have not sent them,” declares the Lord.10 This is what the Lord says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “Jeremiah 29:4-134 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says to all those I carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: Jeremiah 29:46 “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. John 17:65 “Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters.

The World Has Been a MessBriefly Explain The Fall of Man in Genesis 3 and free will.Evil is real: Richard Foster says, “God becomes a reality when he becomes a necessity.” Dark valleys make God more real to us. The world is not how it was designed to be.“No man knows how bad he is till he has tried very hard to be good.” C.S. LewisWe all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6This is why human history is littered with violence, deceit, adultery, lies, greed, grabs at powerThis is why our family tree has that in itThis is why you and I have that in usThe Bible says in Romans 3:10-11“There is no one righteous, not even one; 11 there is no one who understands there is no one who seeks God.We all follow something or someone… Yourself? Sheep gone astray. The Lord Is MY ShepherdThe Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,he leads me beside quiet waters,3 he refreshes my soul.He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, Psalm 23:1-4All of us will walk through valleys in our lives: What gets us through them is the Good Shepherd.You can go at it alone… or with your friends, or family… But at some point,the valley of the shadow of Death will consume you. You will win…When you have Jesus as your shepherd… You know he will lead you to green pastures.He will lead you to still waters, he will restore your soulMOST PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH WHO THEY ARE RATHER THAN WHOSE THEY ARE… This is the most important decisionA Stable Life is Built on a Stable Foundation“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” Matthew 7:24-27

Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2 By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Cephas,[b] and then to the Twelve. 6 After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8 and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. 19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.1 Corinthians 15:1-8 and 17-20 2 By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you.
