Of course, the 4-8 New Orleans Saints will face the 2-10 New York Giants this Sunday, but we have more important questions than how these teams matchup against one another. The first one is, while we are pretty sure there will be big changes for the Saints in the offseason, do we really know who will be making them? Will it be Mickey Loomis? Does Gayle Benson have other ideas? Jim Derry asks The Athletic's Larry Holder for his thoughts, as they get into a deep discussion about what could happen when the middle of January rolls around and the season is over, and they do it on Friday's Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 319) presented by Evangeline Securities. Jim also has plenty to say on how Lions coach Dan Campbell could have turned a sure victory into a loss Thursday night at Ford Field against NFC North-rival Green Bay. Also, that style of football might be fun for the casual fan because it's different and it reminds them of playing Madden Football, but it's just plain stupid (and psycho).

By 1993, EA Sports was a well established video game manufacturer with titles like Madden Football, which was released in 1989 and PGA Tour Golf, which was released in 1990 already commercial successes. These franchises began the model of licensing the rights to likenesses, league and team names and beyond to help market the games. But they had been resistant to releasing a soccer title largely because the company didn't think it would sell. But a persistent group of UK employees made their case and, ultimately, convinced executives it was worth a shot. The release of EA Sports FIFA, now EA Sports FC, in 1993 began the ascension of a video game title that would become a runaway success. Along the way, it helped grow fandom in America. That marriage between video games and building a soccer culture may have initially been unexpected but, over time, the marriage was clear. Founding Futbol is a year-long exploration of the critical moments that have led to soccer's emerging popularity in America.

Kenny Bell is one of the main Athletes from the billion dollar game franchise Madden Football. He has played as hundreds of football players through Motion Capture in order to help create the moves that people see when they play the game of Madden. There have been billions of people that have seen Kenny's recorded moves in the game through this unique role as the Madden Man, however Kenny is more than the Madden Man. He has dreams and goals to play on the NFL field for an NFL team. He has strong leadership qualities, speed and hands like glue sticks. Kenny also helps run an organization called S.E.L.F (Supporting Education Leadership and Fitness). The organization is dedicated to giving back to local communities in Las Vegas by enhancing the lives of youth through sports training, mentoring, tutoring, and life skills development. There is no doubt that an NFL team would have a gem of a player in the locker room and on the field.

Happy New Year! The trio of trite are back to provide the bozo content you've come to enjoy. Luke is back from visiting his brother in Colorado which spurs Mike's memory about almost taking a job in Durango. Why did David Bowie's catalog sell for half as much as Bruce Springsteen? We read your emails early and new listener Brian gifts us two outstanding emails. Thank you Brian! People died during the holidays including Bob Dole and John Madden. Apparently Wayne Gretzky was the only dude whoever took a dump on the Madden Cruiser. From there the conversation veers into the legacy of Madden Football and the early days of the first video games with announcers. The guys get quite a laugh out of Jack Buck's digitized pipes. Mike actually has some respect for Bob Dole and of course we play a clip of Norm McDonald's impersonation. Have you seen Don't Look Up? All three of the dudes did. Just remember it's not the same as Up In The Air. Joe Cocker makes an appearance on the show as well. Give us your thoughts on any of this nonsense by emailing isitsafepod@gmail.com
The first podcast episode of 2022 is the first of two tributes to the late NFL icon John Madden. Madden died at the age of 85 on December 28, 2021. He was a Hall of Fame coach of the Oakland Raiders, an iconic broadcaster for four different networks, and the namesake and co-creator of the equally iconic Madden Football video game by EA Sports. Award-winning reporter Tom Rinaldi of FOX Sports was an executive producer on the recently released documentary, “All-Madden.” Rinaldi has won 16 Sports Emmy Awards and seven Edward R. Murrow Awards. He was at ESPN for over a decade. In this episode, Rinaldi offers behind-the-scenes information on the documentary, including Madden's reaction to seeing it, just days before his passing.
The boys are back and its 2022! Chase gives an update on his health to start the show. Randy talks about overeating while in NYC. They move on to talk about the Antonio Brown fiasco. The boys talk about their interesting exits from a job. They discuss the passing of Betty White. They close with the news - a professor things Madden Football is racist, a man shushes his wife during childbirth and the fellas read their 2022 horoscopes Outro: “Stranger Things” by The Honors Class Social Media: Instagram: @randyvalerio @chaseabel @readysetblowpodcast Twitter: @randytvalerio @chaseabel1 @readysetblowpodcast FB: facebook.com/randy.valerio.777, facebook.com/chase.abel.54

The Wednesday Kenny & JT Show is underway. We fill you in on the guest list for today. We start off with the Cavs faltering late and losing in New Orleans last night, and losing Ricky Rubio to a left knee injury. We remember Hall of Fame coach and broadcaster John Madden who passed away yesterday, from the sidelines to the broadcast booth to the Madden Football video games. And is Baker Mayfield seriously getting death threats? SI.com reports that Baker's wife responded to that on social media.

Hey everyone welcome back to next gen video game theory. And what I want to talk to you today on the YouTube channel podcast is about creating your own YouTube channel and how it's very possible. If you set your mind to it, and being able to create your own YouTube channel a lot of people feel like they cannot create their own YouTube channel, and that's one of the biggest mistakes people do make, is they feel like they can do it or they just can't get started on it and the fact of the matter is you can it's one of the best times right now to get started with a YouTube channel you just really have to think about it, and just start upload some videos upload a match of gameplay and Call of Duty for instance upload a mission, so it's searchable upload a YouTube short, those are very hot right now and can really help you out when it comes to creating a video game channel and don't underestimate yourself. I think a lot of people feel like they have to be perfect. Don't do that, you grow over time as you upload more videos and the thing about videos for video games is you're going to upload a lot of content and then you can kind of branch off into different games and different content. It is said that if you niche down more which is like choosing a specific game you might have more success, but I would say do your own thing, do what you like to do when it comes to video games and creating your own content. Don't feel like you have to follow someone else's idea, because it's your idea and that's one of the great things about creating content on YouTube when it comes to video games, and just get creative, just try to be really creative, maybe do some news items for gaming do new games do a playthrough just do something fun, and it can take a few months on YouTube for stuff to build up so don't feel like just because you have no views now you're not going to have more views later. That is not the case on YouTube YouTube things kind of grow over time. So if your video performs poorly. At first, that doesn't mean it's gonna perform poorly later, as people start searching for a specific topic or the algorithm tends to change over time. So just know that it's, it's a it's a long process but it's a fun process and if you're already gaming and why as we'll upload some videos why not guys, I think that's the thing is if, if you have a chance to do your passion and maybe get it out there, build a community around your passion, meet some new people who are like minded like you, YouTube is a great opportunity because it's a huge search engine and it goes to the top of Google search and I think a lot of people feel like they can do it but just get started. Do something big. And when you get started everything kind of changes from that point. So I would highly recommend that you go out there, you start a YouTube channel today, and you may be shocked at how far you can actually go when it comes to YouTube because there is a lot of opportunity out there guys. It's not too crowded. You can choose something that you absolutely like whether it's Madden Football, whether it's Call of Duty, Halo all these different franchises fortnight. All these different franchises have an opportunity so start today, and you can go check out the next gen video game YouTube channel and see what exactly I did to kind of get that I started off with YouTube shorts and that's why it's kind of grown my channel a little bit, so try it out yourself and see what works but have fun, would they be creative and go start your own video game channel guys hit that like and sub button if you can to support, and I'll see you guys on the flipside, if you have any questions feel free to reach out on the YouTube channel on the go to answer them.

My name is Jan. I'm one of the pastors here, along with Pastor Shane and Pastor Andy. And if you're new or visiting, we'd love to connect with you. We do that through the connection card that you can get in the back at the Welcome Center. If you fill it out legibly, return it there, we'll get in touch with you over the course of the week. We also have a virtual one you can get in the App Store. Just search Mosaic Boston on Google Play or the App Store, and you can also get the card online on our website. With that said, would you please pray with me over the preaching of God's Word?Heavenly Father, we thank you that you, the eternal God, have taken us finite, temporal beings who rebelled against you. You could have let us go, leave us alone to wander from you, to rebel against you, and you could have allowed us to die in our sins. Instead you sent your on, Jesus Christ. You loved us so much that you gave your son Jesus Christ to live the perfect life, to proclaim the Gospel, to speak truth to us, because we needed it and because you love us, and love means not just giving people what they want, but giving people what they need above all else. Jesus, you did that, and then on top of everything, you went to the cross to atone for our sins. It was the only way that we could be reconciled with God the Father. And by the power of the Holy Spirit today, we can be reconciled with you and Jesus. Jesus, you save us, and you saved us so that we can covenant together as your people in local churches as an embassy of God, a nation within a nation, a kingdom within a kingdom, to proclaim the glories, the excellencies of the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ. That's our job.I pray, Lord Jesus, show us how much you love the church. You love the church with an intimate, affectionate, a marital, a spousal love. Make us a people who love your church as much as you love the church. That makes the people who are part of the church want to see the church thrive, because the church is your body, and the church is your bride, and the church is your flock. It is your temple. The church is your army. And make us a people who don't just commit, don't just join, but make us a people who care for and are zealous for and pray for and serve the local church. And as we do, Lord, deepen our relationships with each other, and make us a people who don't forget there are many in this city, in this region who don't know you yet. Make the people care about them and go and pursue and preach the Gospel, and welcome them into the fold of God. Blessed art thou and the Holy Scriptures. Right now we pray this in Jesus's name. Amen.We're in a three week sermon series that we're calling Love Jesus Simple. Those are the core values of Mosaic Boston as a church. Those values shape everything we've done, everything we do, everything we pray to do, and they've shaped the past decade of this church, and we pray that these values shape the next decade and decades, Lord willing, to come. And what do we mean when we say love Jesus simple? We mean that love is the motive for everything that we do. Jesus is our message, and simplicity is our method. What does love mean? Well, love means the God-given gift of love, which is so much more than just sentiment. It's volitional. It's an act of choice. I choose to love you. And the same way that God points to us, takes unlovely people, unloving people, and He chooses to pour out His love on us, that's the same love that motivates everything we do. It's a love that speaks truth into people's lives. You speak the truth with love.When Jesus Christ came, He lived a perfect life. He fulfilled all of the law, and He summed up the essence of Christianity, the essence of the law, by saying this. That the essence of faith is love God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind. A holistic love for God. And love your neighbor as you love yourself. So, how did Jesus Christ... He perfectly did both of those. How did He do it? What did He devote Himself to? Did He go around singing praise songs and teaching people to sing praise songs, because hey, if you love God, you sing? Is that all He did? No. And in terms of loving people, did He just start soup kitchens and meet people's physical needs? That's not all He did. He did something so much more. In order to fulfill the commandments to love God and to love people, He devoted Himself to something. He loved something. He loved so much that He sacrificed for something. What was that? It's the church. Jesus Christ fulfilled the two greatest commandments, love God and love people, by loving the church, giving Himself for the church.Our text for today is Ephesians 5:25 through 27, just to frame up our time together. And if you're new to Mosaic, what we usually do when we preach God's word is we take Holy Scriptures, it could be a paragraph, and we go verse by verse through the text. Today I want to architect, or lay out the architecture of what the church is from the whole framework of Scripture. There's going to be multiple Scriptures, but this will be our landing point. Ephesians chapter five, verses 25 through 27. Would you look at the text with me?"Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church, and gave Himself up for her, that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, so that He might present the church to Himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish." This is the reading of God's holy and infallible, authoritative Word. May He write these internal truths upon our hearts. What an interesting text to start with. My wife loves this text. She's like, "Baby, you better get that memorized." She said no tattoos, unless I get Ephesians 5:25. A tremendous tattoo, in the Greek. Just to remind myself, husbands, love your wives.Incredible pattern. But the pattern is given to us because it's based on a reality. What is that reality? The reality is that Jesus Christ loves something above everything else. That He loves this church as a way... He loves the church as a way to love God and to love people. This is what Jesus Christ devoted Himself to. I remember being, I was 22 years old, out at college, working a consulting job in outside D.C., Fairfax, Virginia, and I would drive every day from 8:00 to 8:29. I was driving my '99 Toyota Solara to work every day. And grace to you, John MacArthur would go on, and it was the first time I ever listened to expository preaching, verse by verse. Fell in love with it.And then I remember listening to John MacArthur sharing his testimony about how God called him to be a pastor, and he asked this question. He said, "Hey, what should I do with my life? What should I devote my life to?" And he said, "I love Jesus Christ and I love the Scriptures, and in Jesus Christ and in the Scriptures, I see that Jesus devoted Himself to something, and He devoted Himself to the church above all else. Everything He did, everything He taught, everyone He served, it was all for the church." So why would we not devote ourselves to a greater degree to a church? And I pray that this sermon, this sermon series in particular, will deepen our love and zeal for the church of Jesus Christ.Three points to frame up our time. The church is gathered. Second, the church is family. And third, the church is temple, body, bride, flock, army, all different metaphors to define this reality of what the church is. And I start with the church is gathered, because gathering in all of the metaphors and all of these instances is essential. Gathering isn't merely a nice thing that Christians do. Gathering is central to what the church is. Gathering is who we are. Apart from the gathering, if the church does meet, there is no church at all.The Greek word for church is ekklisia, which just means assembly. And a lot of people, when they want to talk about the church, they want to primarily go to talk about the universal church. Let's not talk about local church. Let's talk about universal church. So that's where we'll start. Tremendous. And then we'll talk about the local church. But the universal church is the universal gathering of every Christian in Heaven. Every Christian that has lived, every Christian that currently lives, and every Christian that will, in a sense. Because in Heaven, it's above time. It's a timeless place. So in Heaven, Hebrews 12:23, it says, "The assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in Heaven." So in a sense, every single Christian who is alive today, physically, you're here. Spiritually, you are already assembled in the universal supernatural church in Heaven. Yes, it is a future reality, but it's also a present reality.Seeing Paul writing to all of the Epistles of the cities, but Colossae, for example. He writes to them in chapter one, verse two. He said, "All of you who are in Christ, you're in Heaven already. You're in Christ, because Jesus is seated at the right hand of God. You're in Christ, but you're at Colossae." So in Heaven you're assembled, but also here on Earth you're assembled. So even from Saint Paul's perspective that if you are part of the universal church, obviously, obviously you're part of the local church, because faithful local churches are earthly displays of the Heavenly church.Here's how I want to frame up church membership. A lot of people ask me, because a lot of people, a lot of Christians really have no ecclesiology, and perhaps that's some of you. Perhaps you grew up in a church with... There are churches that never talked about a church, never talked about the importance of church. It's like being on a road trip, and you know where you're going, but you never talk about the car itself that you're in. You're just focused on the journey. Yeah, it's important, but you've also got to care for the car, and you've got to gas up the car, and you've got to change the oil, et cetera, et cetera. So, we have to speak about the church. The church is crucial.And a lot of people are like, "Give me a Bible verse. I just want a Bible verse for the church." I'm going to give you a lot of Bible verses today, a lot. So, you're going to be kind of blown away by how much Scripture's going to come at you real quick. But I'm doing this for a few reasons, because I love Jesus, and I love the Holy Scriptures, and I love the church. I love the church, and I love this church, and I pray that you dear Christians fall in love with the church as much as Jesus Christ loves the church, and become a member of the local church.So Matthew 18:20, "For where there are two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them." All right. Jesus is talking about Christians gathering together, and Jesus is present through the Word. Well, a lot of people take this text out of context, and they use it as an excuse, justification for them not having to be part of a local church. Which is very ironic, because actually, the whole pericope, the whole text, has to do with the importance of the local church, because he's talking about church discipline.But before I get... I remember I was at a prayer meeting. I joined a church in Moscow when I was doing a study abroad. I loved the church, and they had a prayer meeting. I was like, "Awesome." And I met a guy there who it was his first time, and when it was my first time, he was training for the Olympics in wrestling, and so we were like, "Yeah, let's hold each other accountable, and we'll go to even prayer gatherings." And we gathered. It was me, him, and there was two older ladies every single time. The two older ladies, they'd say the same thing every time. What they would say is, "Where two or three are gathered in the name of Jesus, Jesus is there with us." And I was like, "Oh, that sounds good."But on the one hand, you're pulling a text out of context, because that text is talking about church discipline in Matthew 18. On the other hand, Jesus said, "I am with you always, until the end of the age." So, Jesus is with every single individual Christian, yeah, so it's not like I need another Christian to say, "Okay, you've got a little Jesus. I've got a little Jesus. With your powers combined, now Jesus erupts." That's not what's going on in here at all. So, you can't use this text to justify you chilling around your fire pit with your boys, smoking a cigar and drinking beers and talking a little about Jesus, saying, "That's my church." That's not your church. A church has qualities, qualifications, clear lines of delineation. And in that context... And we'll get into Matthew 18... it assumes that there's a body of believers. It assumes that we know who's in, who's out. It assumes that there's spiritual leadership. It assumes that the members meet together repeatedly in gatherings. It assumes ordinances and accountable membership.So, from the perspective of the Old Testament, gathering, the assembly of believers was also always crucial. God saves Israel, brings them out of captivity in Egypt. And the very first thing that He does is He gives Moses the law, and the people of God gather on Mount Sinai to receive God's law. They hear God's law spoken, and Moses calls this in Deuteronomy 10, 9:10. He calls it The Day of Assembly. And then God afterwards says, "Hey. Now I want you to build a tabernacle where the people of God gather on a regular basis for the festivals, for the sacrifice, to hear God's word expounded, explained, for the people of God to worship and praise God." And then Israel would gather in synagogues. They would gather at the temple when it was built, and at critical junctures in the history of Israel. King Solomon, when he dedicated the temple in Second Chronicles, he called it "all of the assembly of Israel."Then Jesus Christ, He goes to the cross, He dies, He's buried, and then for 40 days He's teaching His disciples. And then He finally ascends to Heaven, and He said, "Don't leave Jerusalem. Don't do anything until I send the helper, the Holy Spirit." On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descends upon the people of God, thus forming the first church. And as the church was formed, they knew who was in and who was out. In Acts five, the persecution of that church, and it said, "For fear of the persecution, others would not join the church." Assumption that there's joining. So when people are like, "Give me one Bible verse about church membership," I'm like, "Hold on. I'm going to give you the whole New Testament." Because the New Testament doesn't make sense apart from churches. Christianity doesn't make sense apart from membership in local churches.That's what Jesus was doing in the Gospels, is training up the leaders of the church. And in the Book of Acts, what we see is the Holy Spirit descends upon the early church, and what we see is the church grows. They go from Jerusalem to Judea to Sumeria to the ends of the Mediterranean, the Roman Empire. Saint Paul even wants to plant churches in Spain. What are they doing? Planting churches in city centers, so from there they could influence all of the Roman Empire. So when people are like, "Hey, give me a Bible verse for church membership," I'm like, "That's like saying, 'Give me a Bible verse to prove that God created everything.'" Yeah, there's one. In the beginning, God created all the Heavens and Earth. Boom. God created everything. But then the proof of it is... Look around. That's how God treats it. And then in Scripture, it's just assumed. It's assumed God created everything. It would be ludicrous to believe anything else. That's how Scripture approaches church membership as well. Obviously this is part and parcel of the faith.Who starts churches? This is crucial before we start defining the church. God does. Saint Paul says, "I planted, Apollos watered." But God gave the growth. God's the one that's planting churches. So in Acts 20, verse 28, Saint Paul says, "Pay careful attention to yourselves, and to all the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers to care for the church of God, which He obtained with His own blood." He's talking about the elders in Ephesus who are leading a particular group of members in a church. This is Jesus's blood bought church, and He has ordained you. He has chosen you as overseers by the Holy Spirit. That's where it starts, the calling from God. Jesus starts churches. Jesus also ends churches.In the Book of Revelation, he writes seven letters to seven churches, and to the church in Ephesus he says, in Revelation 2:5, "The words of Jesus Christ. 'Remember, therefore, from where you have fallen. Repent and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lamp stand from its place, unless you repent.'" Because the church had stopped proclaiming the Word of God, stopped obeying the Word of God, and Jesus says, "I call you to repentance." Because He loves them, so He gives them a hard Word. That's what love means. Giving them what they need most, not what they want most. Calls them to repentance. Or else, He says, "I'm going to snuff out the light, the life of your church."So there's a lot of churches. There's a lot of church buildings, even in our own city, that are dead. God snuffed out the lamp stand a long time ago, because they wouldn't repent. Every reference to the word church, almost every reference in the New Testament is about the local church, a group of Christians who covenant together, make a clear... There's a clear relationship. You hold me accountable, I hold you accountable to gather regularly for worship of God and ministry of the Gospel, to proclaim the Gospel to one another and to unbelievers, underqualified church leadership. So, that's why Titus has given to us in First Timothy, "For worship the preaching of God's word, the ordinances of baptism and communion."And yes, there is a universal church, but we're physical beings. We're physical creatures. Right now we're in a time and we're in a place and in a space. So in the same way that our spirit is in the universal church of God there, our bodies need to be in a local church here, and we gather as an assembly, just like the early church did on the day of Pentecost. After they get saved, what do they devote themselves to? That's a tremendous pattern. We should devote ourselves to something similar.Acts 2:42, 47. "They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching, the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all as any had need, and day by day attending to the temple together and breaking bread in their homes. They received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people." And the Lord added to their number, which is clear. This is how many we have."Day by day, those who were being saved, they devoted themselves to the preaching of the Word, the understanding of the Scriptures." That's the apostles teaching. "They devoted themselves to fellowship." We get to know each other. We know who the other members are, and they did that by fellowshipping in homes, and that's why we have communities. We meet for worship on Sundays, for the Holy Scriptures, to worship God as a corporate body, and then during the week, we meet to have fellowship with one another, breaking of breads, communion. They prayed for one another, and they voluntarily met one another's needs.I remember in college bible study, a guy was like, "Yup, this is why. This proves that Jesus was a socialist, and the early church was just... They were all socialists. They just sold everything, and they gave everything voluntarily." Voluntarily. That's the difference between socialism and Christianity. Socialism wants to demand, force everyone into generosity. You can't do that. That doesn't usually end well. You need gulags for that. Jesus does that by changing people's hearts. Now we're generous.So, what we see is that Christianity is inextricably linked to the local church. The local church is the New Testament's expression of Christianity. And we see what happened in Acts, and it continues as the church grew. We see it in the Book of Acts, and then we see the Epistles of Saint Paul. If you don't understand the importance of church membership, clear, defined, who's in, who's out, you're not going to understand the Epistles. Every single one of the Epistles is either written to a church, or is written about churches. That's how important it is. And that's the Epistles. And then from the Epistles, we get the Book of Revelation. The Book of Revelation begins with seven letters from Jesus Christ to seven churches, and the Book of Revelation ends with Jesus Christ coming back dramatically for His bride, who is the church.And just to give you a few other verses, First Corinthians 11:18. Just assume that a church gathers together. "For in the first place when you come together as a church, when you assemble as an assembly." And the original First Corinthians 4:23, "If therefore the whole church comes together." So, the assembly of the covenant members who said this. "We are a church body." They're coming together, gathering together. So the gathering is a distinct event, and then Paul provides specific instructions on what believers should do in church as the church gathers. First Corinthians 14:19, "Nevertheless, in church, I would rather speak five words with my mind in order to instruct others, than 10,000 words in a tongue." First Corinthians 14:28, "But if therefore, if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church, and speak himself to God."And the New Testament instructs Christians as they gather to do things that can only be done when you meet together. Teaching, admonishing one another, singing, psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, and reading Scripture publicly. First Timothy, 4:13, "Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture to exhortation to teaching." And when we gather together, we remember our hope that is in Christ, that Jesus is our high priest. He is our temple. And because our hope is in Christ, that's why we gather.A lot of people have this backwards. A lot of people say, "I have a relationship with Christ. He's forgiven all of my sins, and now I could just feed myself off of podcasts, or go to conferences and read Christian books. I can have a great time, and listen to my own preferred style of worship, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera." But in Hebrews 10:19 through 25, the writer of Hebrews, he grounds the commandment to not forsake gathering in the hope we have in Christ. So, because we have this hope, because He's our high priest, because we can go to Him, let us go to Him by gathering together.This is Hebrews 10:19 through 25. "Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that He opened for us through the curtain that is through His flesh, and since we have a great high priest over the House of God, let us draw near with a true heart and full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up in one another love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the day drawing near." So we're not to forsake the gathering because of the hope we have in Christ.And even when the author of Hebrews wrote this, there were clearly people there, as is the habit of some... And I always feel, whenever I talk about church membership or the importance of attending a church, I always feel like the teacher that gets up and starts berating all the students who are there, berating them because of so many students who are absent. And I get it. You're here. But that issue, that's always been an issue. There's always been Christians who just hear what they want to hear. "Oh, Jesus forgives my sins. Oh, Jesus is my personal savior. Now I can just follow Jesus on my own," without understanding that no, you need to be part of a church. You need the church. The church needs you.And then also, Jesus envisions the church as a whole when it speaks to the unrepentant sinner. This is in the context of church discipline in Matthew 18. One of the reasons I've been... So, I grew up in a Russian church that my dad was a minister at. Became a member at 16. Moved to college, outside after college. Moved to D.C. Joined a church there where my uncle was a pastor. It was kind of like family, so church goes together. But I remember the first time I joined a church on my own volition, outside of family. I had to make a decision to join this church. It was FBC Durham, where Pastor Andy Davis was, is still the pastor. Where, like you had to decide. This church, what do they believe? How do they do ministry? And it's a volitional decision.My wife and I, we said, "Look. We want to join this church," even though I was in seminary, and it was just for a short period of time. But I knew we needed it. I knew we needed to go to another body of believers and say, "Please hold us accountable. I do not trust myself, because I know the flesh wants an excuse to walk away from God, walk away from faithfulness. My wife and I and our family, we need this. My soul needs this. I need you to hold me accountable, and I will return the favor." And that's how Jesus views church. Actually, one of the only times He uses the Word ekklisia in the Gospels, He does in the context of church discipline, which is going to a Christian who's living an unrepentant sin and speaking truth into that person's life. As awkward as it is, as hard as it is, this is the most loving thing to do when a person is walking away from the faith, because it wakes them up from the spiritual stupor of sin.So, this is Matthew 18, 15 through 20. "If your brother sins against your brother," you know who your brother and your sister is, because you have defined relationships with spiritual family. "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church." So, it's clear who the church is, clear who's in and who's out. Tell it to the church. If he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and tax collector, meaning the person is no longer in the church. The person's in the category of an unbeliever. A believer, by definition, you're a Christian if you repent of your sin. As soon as you stop repenting of sin, you, by your lifestyle, are showing that you are not a Christian. So now you are like a Gentile or a tax collector, so now you're not a brother or sister that we hold each other accountable. Now you're an unbeliever that we are preaching the Gospel to.Verse 18, "Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven. Whatever you loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven. Again I say to you, if two or three of you agree on Earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in Heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them." So in that context, you see. When the gathering of two or three people who agree, "Yes, this is true. Yes, this is God's will," and yes, this person to testifies to be a Christian isn't living in line with the Gospel, is living in unrepentant sin, now that person is no longer a church, a part of the church. So it's clear who's in, who's out.Saint Paul, in First Corinthians chapter five there's a sordid account of a gentleman who was sleeping with his mother in law, and they were just celebrating. They're tolerating this sin as a church, because they're so loving. And Saint Paul says, "That's not loving. That's actually the most hateful thing you can do when someone's living in sin and you're celebrating that sin. The most loving thing you can do is to say to that person, 'You're on track to end up in hell for eternity, unless you repent of your sin.'" So then Saint Paul says this. First Corinthians, 5:4, "When you are assembled, when the church ekklisia is assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus, and my spirit is present with the power of our Lord Jesus, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord."On just the first reading, you know, that's not love. It's the most loving thing that can happen. If a person is walking away from the truth, from Christ, who is the only way of salvation, there's no coming to God the father except through Him. This person is walking away, pursuing sin. And if we as a church say, "Oh, that's fine. That's okay," we're doing the biggest disservice to that person, and we are ruining the testimony of the church and the community at large.So, Saint Paul then later in that chapter says, "Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge? We are to judge brothers and sisters. Are you living in line with the truth of God?" And that's what we mean by love. A lot of you... And I've heard this several times... "I come to Mosaic, and I just feel insulted. You just tell me how much of a degenerate, reprobate, pagan, just ungodly person." That's what I do. That's what I do, because I love you. Because I love you. I don't want you to go to hell. Life is short. Eternity is long. Hell is hot. And there's only one way out, and that's through faith in Jesus Christ. That's why we do what we do.So a lot of people, when they think, "Oh, love. It's sentimental. It's gooey," if someone says they love you, but never tell you the truth, that person does not love you. They tolerate you. Indifferent is not love. Indifference is actually the greatest level of hate. Even if a person says, "I hate you," at least they care about you. Indifference is like, "I don't care what happens to you." That's not what we do. We want to tell you the truth, and this is why church membership is so important. In church membership, you say, "Please tell me the truth. Please hold me accountable." So church is gathering of the saints, and this is how we actually grow in sanctification to become the Christians we're called to be.You can't play a sport just virtually and say, "Okay. I did that sport." You can't play football. You can't play Madden Football in a video game and say, "I'm a football player." You're not a football player. You're not a football player. I don't care what football you're talking about. American football or soccer or whatever. I don't care. You've got to actually play. And yes, football players, during the week many of them don't even look like football players. But if you don't show up for game day, you are not on the team. And that's really what church membership is. Who is the team? With whom are we on the team together?So the gathering of the invisible church is made visible weekly in the gathering together, and then why? Because the church is also family. The church is family. In a family, individuals matter, as does the whole. And you need that balance. My wife and I, we have four daughters. I love my four daughters individually. Individually. They're very different. Each one of them has a... You need a very distinct approach to each one of them. Each one of them, I've learned that approach, I use that approach. We love them individually. And I even tell them, and I say, "Don't tell the others. You're my favorite. You're my favorite." I tell each of them that, and then they get together and they're like, "Dad said I'm his favorite," and the other's like, "Ah, he told me the same thing." Yeah. You are my favorite. Tremendously. But I also love them as a family, as a whole.And a lot of Christians, they just want this. It's like yes, Jesus loves you individually. If you were the only person to be alive, to have ever lived, Jesus would have still died for your sins on the cross. That's how much He loves you. Your name is graven on His hands. Your name is written in the Book of Life with the Blood of the Lamb. He loves you individually. But not at the expense of loving His family corporally. God is Father, and He adopts children into His family. When you become a Christian it's a process of adoption, and God loves his family corporally.So we reject the two extremes of spiritual individualism and institutional Christianity. Spiritual individualism says, "I have a private relationship." By a personal relationship with Jesus, what they mean is, "It's private. You can't ask me about my relationship. You can't ask me what I believe about Jesus. You can't hold me accountable for anything. Who are you to judge me? It's just me and Jesus." And we reject that, because that contradicts Scripture. We also reject institutional Christianity, as seen in the traditional Roman Catholic church and Roman Catholicism, where they say there's no salvation outside the church and necessitates sacraments for salvation. We reject that as well. We do believe in individual regeneration. When you become a Christian, you yourself, the expectation now is you join the corporate body of believers, and you make your spiritual individual experience a congregational reality. That's why Scripture talks about church as a household of God. That you're adopted, and now you're in the House of God.First Timothy, 3:14 and 15, "I hope to come to you soon," Paul tells Timothy, "... but I'm writing these things to you so that if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the Church of the Living God, a pillar and a buttress, the truth." Paul writing to Timothy, who is a pastor, an elder of the local church, and he said that church is a household of God. We're a family. A family of truth seekers, a family of truth defenders. And as the redeemed family of God, yeah, we are His special people with a special purpose. To do what? To model what God expects of us all. So, we as a church need to... The vision should be that we reflect to the world, to the community, what it means to be a redeemed people. That we are a city within a city, a people within a people, a nation within a nation, so when people look into the church, they say, "This is how God intends for people to live." This is how God intends for family to happen, for marriage to happen, for sex to happen, for raising children, for money, for job, everything." It's a categorically different humanity.Therefore church membership is important, because if there's a member of the church, a member of the family who is not representing God the Father, is not mirroring or growing in the likeness of God the Son, or isn't walking in the Holy Spirit, but is actually walking in the flesh, that's when we need to come along to this brother or sister and say, "Look. For the witness of the church, for the witness of this body, we need to work together and lead you to a path of repentance."The other thing about family. This is why family is so important. How many of you have siblings, and you had no say in who your sibling is? No say. Just none. You had no clue. My mom and dad, I'm the oldest of five. My mom and dad, it was me and then three sisters. And I thought we were done. I thought we were great. I thought it was tremendous. We're doneski. And then I'm in sixth grade. I had a brother show up. Like, "Ugh. Great. Tremendous." And I love him. He's great. But I had no choice. You get to choose your friends. You have no say of who your siblings are. I told my daughter. I was just kidding around. I have four daughters. I told my daughter Sophia, I'm like, "Oh, I can't wait to have a son. I still want a son." She started freaking out. "No, not another one. Please, no." It's already hard enough for her at school to tell people that she's got three siblings. Like, haven't you heard of climate change and overpopulation and stuff? No, I haven't. The Bible says kids are a blessing. Praise God. Hallelujah. But my wife said no more for now, so who knows?But what I'm saying is that kids, they have no choice. They have absolutely zero choice. You have zero choice. Same thing with the family of God. And we have people come in from bigger churches, maybe down South, where they've got a program for everything. They've got a niche group for everything. And they come in and they're like, "Okay, which one of your community groups is the young adult ministry? Which one of your community groups is the singles group? Which one of your community groups is parents with children, or moms of preschool? MOPS, moms of preschool?" And we don't play that game. I don't see any of that in the Holy Scripture. We have community groups for Christians. And I want your community... I want you to join a community group. You can't be a member of the church unless you join a community group, because that's the only way where we can actually shepherd you as a family. The little family gatherings, get to know each other. We're interconnected, interdependent, et cetera.But in a community group, I want it to be slightly uncomfortable. I want it to be slightly annoying. There's people that show up and they have a different house smell, from a different... You know what I'm saying? You're different. You're just a different aroma. It's all right. Welcome. I've got a different house smell. And there's people that show up with accents. Yeah. We want you to sit there and actually have a hard time to figure out what this person is saying. We want you to do that. Because in the Kingdom of Heaven, there's going to be people talking all kinds of different languages, so let's learn them now. So, this is what we do as a church. And you know what? When you show up, now you have to learn how to love. Love isn't just getting along with people who are just like you. That's not love. That's affinity. That's easy. Love is when you have people who are very different from you, slightly annoying, maybe smell differently, their theology is off, and you love them because you choose to love them.I love my daughters. There's an affection there. We love them. We're generous with words of affection, and with massages and hugs. They love the little scratchy scratch before they go to sleep, and the little tips of your fingers. They love that. I do that on the face, and then I close their eyelids, just you're asleep and then that's it. Because I love them. It's tremendous. But there's some days where everyone's exhausted. You show up and you're like, "Just figure it out. You brush your own teeth. You wash up. Find yourself dinner. I'm out. I'm locking myself in the door. You're lucky I haven't abandoned you." There's days like that as well. And the only reason I haven't abandoned them at moments like that is because I love them, and love means I made a decision. I did that with my wife, until death do us part. I do it with my kids. It's a covenant relationship. That's why covenant membership is so important at Mosaic. You make that covenant because you're saying, "There will be days where I would have left, had I not made a decision to love you." And that's why church membership is so important.First John, 3:10, "By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil. Whoever does not practice the righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother." And here it's not just physical biological brother. It's spiritual brother. He's talking about the brethren in the church. So, we are a gathering. Church is a gathering. Church is a family. And then I'm going to give five more metaphors. It's a temple, a body, a bride, a flock, an army. And as I give you these five metaphors from Scripture to describe church, I want you to think through these metaphors through the prism of the mission statement of Mosaic. What is the mission statement? Mosaic's mission statement is we exist to love Jesus, love those who love Jesus, and then love those who don't yet love Jesus. Love Jesus. This is our worship. This is our obedience. This is our service to God. Love those who love Jesus. This is we love other Christians, in particular this household of God with whom we covenant together. And then love those who don't yet love Jesus. We do those two because we want unbelievers to come to know Jesus.So, the first metaphor is the temple. The temple assumes collective. You're interlocked. You're interdependent. Collective worship, collective ministry, collective witness. We've heard from First Corinthians and Second Corinthians, where it says that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. So, this is the verse that people use to say, "Hey, you shouldn't abuse alcohol or drugs. Hey, you should eat right and exercise." Your body, your physical body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. You should care for yourself. Yes, it is you singularly, but most of the time that metaphor is used plurally. That you together are the temple of the Holy Spirit. And you see this in First Corinthians chapter three, verse 16. "Do you not know that you," plural, "... are God's temple and God's spirit dwells in you?" Meaning every single Christian is filled with the Holy Spirit, and when we come together, we come together as building blocks or stones of the spiritual temple, and when we're gathered together, we experience more of the work of the Holy Spirit together.First Peter 2, four through eight, talks about this. "As you come to Him a living stone rejected by men, but in the sight of God chosen and precious. You yourselves are like living stones. Like living stones, being built up as a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifice that's acceptable to God through Jesus Christ, for it stands in Scripture. Behold, I'm laying on Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious. Whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame." So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, the stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone and a stone of stumbling and a rock of a fence. They stumble because they disobey the Word, as they were destined to do. Jesus is the cornerstone. Every single Christian in a local church is a stone that is built up together.So, from the perspective of the prism of how do we love God, love Jesus, love those who love Jesus, love those who don't yet love Jesus, from the perspective of the temple, is we first of all need to be part. I need to love God and honor God and obey God's commandment to be part of a local church, because that local church has a space in the wall of the temple that I need to fill. So, now I'm in there. I fill that need. Whatever that need is, I bring all my talent, time and treasure. Whatever God has given me, I do that. And as I do it, I'm interconnected with the other stones that have the Holy Spirit, Christians. There's people underneath me that I am standing on their shoulders. I need them. I need them to serve me and teach me. There's people above me. I need to serve these people. I need to support them and encourage them. And there's people next to me, to the left and to the right.So that's from that perspective of like, this is how I love God. I do what He calls me to do. And I love other believers, but I also understand that there's room for those who are not yet Christians. So, we will never get to this point as a church where you say, "We're big enough. We've got enough members. We've got enough Christians." No, because as soon as you say that, you insulate yourself and you forget the mission, that we are to welcome other people to join, to be part, to allow God to build them into the community.Ephesians 2:19 through 22, "So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone in whom... " Excuse me. "In whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In Him, you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the spirit." Here are the whole structures, the church an emphasis. He's writing this letter to a local church, and to that local church he's saying, "You're a structure. You're being joined together. You are the holy temple. You're being built together." So from the one hand, you need to know that God builds the church. On the other hand, God uses us to build the church. So where am I building the church? With whom am I building the church? For whom am I building the church? That's for God, and for those who don't yet know Him.The second metaphor that we're looking at, point three is that Christ, church is His body. He loves His church. He's so intimately involved with His church, that He views His church as His body. A lot of people who just say, "I love Jesus and only Jesus," they worship a decapitated Jesus. It's like cutting off His head, and, "I love Jesus, and I don't need His body." Jesus Himself views the church as His body.I'll give you just one illustration of this. Saint Paul, when he was still an unbeliever, he was persecuting the church, zealous for the things of God, not knowing the things of God, ignorant of the truth. He's going to persecute Christians, to imprison them, to kill them. Jesus stops him on the road to Damascus, and look what Jesus says. "Now, as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from Heaven shone around him, and falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him... " And this is the voice of Jesus, "... a voice saying to him, 'Saul, Saul. Why are you persecuting... " What? Christians? Why are you persecuting the church? No. "Why are you persecuting me?" Jesus is so intimately involved with the church, if you persecute the church, Jesus feels it. It's His body. Therefore how you view, how you engage, how you serve, how you love, how you care for the church is how you engage with and view and care and love for Jesus Christ. Christ is the beloved Son, and as people who are created in Him, redeemed by Him, now our identity is in Him. Christ is the beloved, and in Him, we the church are also His beloved body.Ephesians four, 11 through 16, "He, Jesus, gives the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds, the teachers, the spiritual leaders," qualified spiritual leaders, for what? What's our job? What's my job, Pastor Shane's job, Pastor Andy's? What's our job? To do the work of the ministry? No. Our job, we're basically coaches. I'm Belichick. That explains my preaching style. This is what I do. I'm Belichick. I'm going to start preaching in a hood. I'm Belichick. All of you are Tom Brady. Don't go to Tampa. Don't go. It's nicer there, I know. But still. You're called here. Your job is to do the work of the ministry. My job is to equip the saints for the work of the ministry, for building up the Body of Christ until we all attain to the unity of the faith, of the knowledge of the Son of God to mature manhood to the measure of the stature of the fullest of Christ, so that we may no longer be children tossed to and fro by the waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness and deceitful schemes."Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into Him who is the head, into Christ from whom the whole body. So we hold on to Jesus, the whole body joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow, so that it builds itself up in love." We, the local church, are the Body of Christ. So how do we love Jesus from this perspective, looking at the body through the prism? How do we love Jesus? We love Jesus by doing the job that He has designed us to do in the local body. And we love those who love Jesus, we love other Christians, because they're other body parts of Jesus, and my, me as the gift that God has given me, I need to bless others, and they need to bless me, and we're interdependent. And how do we love those who don't yet love Jesus? When the body is healthy, when the body is functioning, is firing on all pistons, so to speak, that's when we can fulfill the mission of God most effectively, and that's when the love of God and the spirit of God draws people to Himself.First Corinthians 12:12 through 27, "For just as the body is one that has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in one spirit, we were all baptized into one body, Jews or Greeks, slaves or free, and all were made to drink of one spirit. For the body does not consist of one member, but of many. If the foot should say, 'Because I'm not a hand, I do not belong to the body,' that will not make it any less a part of the body. But if the ear should say, 'Because I'm not an eye, I do not belong to the body,' that would not make it any less a part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? And if the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them as He chose. If all were a single member, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, yet one body. The eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you,' nor again the head to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'"On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and those parts of the body that we think less honorable, we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. If one member suffers, all suffer. If one member is honored, all rejoice together."Now, you are the Body of Christ, and individually members of it. That's why we call it membership. People are like, "Ah, I don't like membership. I'm not a big fan of organized religion. Membership reminds me of Costco. Nah, I don't want to do that." That's not what we mean when we say membership. We're talking about you're a member of a body, and each one of us has a very specific role. For as long as you're here, you need the church and the church needs you. The parts are important, but so is the sum.And then the church is the bride. More than 30 times in the New Testament, the church is called the beloved. The church is the Bride of Christ. Ephesians 5:22 through 27, "Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the Lord, for the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church's body, and is Himself its savior. Now, as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her, that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, so that He might present the church to Himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing. That she might be holy without blemish." So, the church is the Bride of Christ.And you need to meditate on this if this is the first time you're hearing it through the prism of loving Jesus, loving those who love Jesus, and loving those who don't yet love Jesus. We love Christ as the church. We love Him by pursuing holiness, by being washed with the water of the Word. What's He doing with the preaching of the Word? It's revealing sin or blemishes, unrighteousness, unholiness, so we want to love God by saying, "God, where must we repent, so that we can be a bride that is unblemished?"It's like when people get married, they say like on your wedding day, that is the pinnacle of your physical attraction. Like for both, like both groom and bride. You did the whole protocol. You worked out. Body fat is as low... You know, that's as low as it's getting. You got the hair did and your skin therapy and all that. You're looking tremendous. That's what they say. You prepare for that wedding. In a similar way, the church needs to be... This is why. We're preparing for the wedding day in Heaven, when Jesus comes and returns, takes His bride, and we're going to rejoice and celebrate at the wedding supper of the Lamb. So that's number one. That's how we love God.How do we love one another? "Hey, brother or sister. This is unbecoming of the Bride of Christ, this lifestyle." Like, "This is a blemish, and let's work through this together. Repent of sin." And then for unbelievers, we do the same thing and we say, "Look. Jesus accepts us as we are." Jesus did not choose a perfect bride. He did not. He chose a very unperfect bride, a very blemished bride, a very sinful, unrighteous, unholy bride. So unbelievers, yeah. You're all welcome. That's how we enter the church together. Jesus Christ welcomes us, accepts us as we are, and then loves us so much that He transforms us into His own likeness. Jesus committed to an imperfect bride.So just this idea, like when people say, "I love Jesus. I just don't love the church." It's false. That's false. You don't love Jesus. If you don't love His bride, and you don't love the church, it's like you coming up to me like, "Jan, I like you. I just don't like your wife." Yeah, I'm never talking to you again. Well, I'll pray for you, but we're not hanging out. And that's what people do with Jesus. "Jesus, I love you. I can't stand your bride." And Jesus is like, "I love my bride, so, sorry." That's how it is. So, that's number one.The other thing is a lot of people say that church is a man made invention. "It's not God's idea. God just wants a relationship with me, that's all." That's not true. The church is God's invention. Jesus Christ is going to marry the church. It's His bride. He loves the church. And then the other thing. A lot of people are like, "Yeah, but church is full of so many hypocrites." And that mindset, it's usually like people who have that mindset who are perennial church hoppers. Just go to a church, just consume. Go to another church, consume. And they never commit. Here's what I say to people like that. If you ever find the perfect church, please leave it, because you're going to ruin it, because every single one of us is a sinner. We're imperfect. We're all sinners.Charles Spurgeon said this: "If I had never joined a church until I found one that was perfect, I should have never joined one at all. And the moment I did join it, if I had found one, I should have spoiled it, for I would not have been a perfect church after I had become a member. But still, imperfect as it is, it is the dearest place on Earth." Yeah, we're a fellowship of the flawed. We're all sinners, though repentant. That's the difference. And Jesus does accept us, and He does bring us into a relationship with Himself because He loves us as a husband loves a bride.So, we're also the flock of Jesus. Jesus is our great shepherd, who laid down His life for the sheep. And Jesus said, "My sheep, hear my voice," and then they follow me. First Peter, 5:1 through 5 is important. "So I exhort the elders among you as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as a partaker of the glory that is going to be revealed. Shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you, but not for shameful gain, but eagerly, not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples in the flock. And when the chief shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory. Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."I use this text because it's so important. He's talking to pastors, and he's saying, "You, pastors, are shepherds of the sheep that is God's flock. But don't forget Jesus is your over shepherd." So what he's saying is, "You, pastors, are still sheep. You're sheep following the shepherd. The better you follow the shepherd, the better you know how to shepherd the flock for your sheep." So, the idea here is we're the flock of Jesus Christ following Him, but you can't just be the dumb sheep that's always consuming and only caring for itself. You've got to grow to the point of you now are a mature sheep, and a mature sheep cares for the other sheep. So the mature sheep are the ones on the outside, and the ones in the front and the ones in the back, keeping the immature sheep who are still growing in the middle, following Jesus.And the mature sheep should be the ones that when they see a sheep wandering, they're the ones that go and get it, or notify the shepherd, "Hey, let's go get it." And those are the ones on the outside that see a wandering sheep by itself and say, "Hey, repent of your sins, little dear sheep, and turn to Jesus Christ and follow us. You're in the flock now." So, that's where we need to grow.And then finally, the church is an army. Church is an army. If you don't understand this reality, you're not going to understand church as God called it to be. The church is by definition militant, and I use that word on purpose, that we are waging a spiritual war individually fight the good fight of faith. Stand firm in the Lord, and in the strength of His might, all of Ephesians six. And we also wage that war together. Yes, we were rebels. Yes, we were enemies of God. Yes, we were on the opposing team. We were in the Kingdom of Darkness. God saves us, snatches us out of captivity."Now we join His army, and our weapon is the love of God, the Gospel of God, and empowered by the Holy Spirit in prayer... " This is Ephesians 3:7 through 10... "Of this Gospel, as made a minister according to the gift of God's grace, which is given to me by the working of His power to me. Though I'm the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God, who created all things, so that through the church, the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. Through the church, manifold wisdom of God, made known to whom? Who's the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places? It's Satan. It's demons. It's the demonic.He's saying that when the Church of God assembles, when it worships, when it obeys God, when it prays, the demons are looking, and the demons are in trepidation, trembling before the Church of God. This is why Satan hates the gathering of Christians. Satan wants to destroy the gathering of Christians. This is why whenever you see an authoritarian regime, a political regime come into power, the very first thing they start to attack is the physical gathering of Christians. I've seen this intimately in the Soviet Union. My dad and my uncle, other family members, spent time in gulags for being Christians, for gathering as saints. You see this with the CCP. The Chinese Communist Party makes a habit of breaking up churches, and this should make us pause and think, why? Why do they care so much about these just regular people, Christians gathering to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ? Why do they feel so threatened by the gathering of believers?I'll tell you why. Because they listen to the message, and the message is that our ultimate allegiance is not to a political party, and it's not to a political figure. It's not to a king, and it's not to a nation. Whatever political figure comes into power, we say, &q

This is a free two-part episode of Marketing BS. My guest today is Peter Fader, professor of marketing at the Wharton School at University of Pennsylvania. Peter was one of my early marketing mentors and I loved this interview. This is Part 2 of the interview where we dive in deeper to the ramifications of Peter's signature research around “Buy until you Die”.You can subscribe to the podcast in your player of choice here: Apple, Sticher, TuneIn, Overcast , Spotify. Private Feed (for premium episodes).TranscriptEdward: This is part two of my interview with Professor Peter Fader. Today we're going to dive into signature research Buy Till you Die. Peter, can you start by explaining what this idea is?Peter: Yeah. That sounds really weird. Buy Till you Die. What's up with that? As we discussed briefly yesterday, it's not a model that I invented. In fact, I was actually against even trying it in the first place. The idea is that if you look at the way customers behave—it's not just customers—if you look at the way that repeated decision-makers make repeated decisions over time. I'll give you a wide range of examples as we go on. There's this remarkably consistent pattern. I'll stop short of calling it universal, but it's so robust, it's so common, that we should treat it that way. Yes, we should acknowledge exceptions, but they don't happen that often.The idea is this. Here's the analogy that I could tell, think about it in the case of a customer making repeat purchases of a particular brand or product. They're basically flipping two coins. Every day, you're going to flip coin number one, the buy coin. Will I buy this thing or not today? Simple as that, but they're also flipping the die coin. When that coin comes up heads, all that means is okay, fine, I'm still alive, I could flip the buy coin. It doesn't mean I will buy but it means I can at least contemplate it. But when that bad boy comes up tails, I'm gone, and I'm gone for good.That's why we call it Buy Till you Die. There's no coming back. There's no resuscitation. You just buy things for a while, and not necessarily at a very steady regular cadence, but you do have an underlying rate and undying propensity to buy things, let's say once a month.I don't know that you going to buy it once a month, but on average, you going to buy it about 12 times a year, but then something happens. I even no longer have a need for this particular product. I move away. You're no longer tracking me. Perhaps I really do die. I don't know, and then that rate, boom, drops to zero. It sounds really artificial. It sounds harsh. It sounds unrealistic, and I don't argue with any of that. I pushed back against it myself. When you put it up against actual data, and you allow these two coins to vary, it's remarkable how well it can capture, explain, and offer useful diagnostics about repeat purchasing behavior or, again, repeat decisions of almost any sort, and we'll dive into some of those almost bizarre examples.Edward: Yeah. Let's talk a little bit about, you said right at the beginning, there are some exceptions, but they're very rare. What would be an example of an exception where this doesn't apply to you?Peter: If you have some product or service where early on your customers either don't fully understand it, they can't use it as usefully as they can. Maybe some of the use cases for it don't emerge until later on, there might be some other complementary products or some changing behaviors. You might find people not just buying at the steady rate and dropping off, but there will be some cases—not just a person, but a whole cohort of people—will actually increase their purchasing for a while. That can happen, but it will level off and it will start to go down.Eventually, the Buy Till you Die will kick in, but sometimes it might take a while. If we started with that theory of going in, we might understate things is. There could be lots of other little twists there. I don't want to get too technical about it.For instance, it could be other changes in the marketplace itself, whether it's promotions that the company does, changes in competition, changes in the macroeconomy, that could make things a little bit less rigid than pure Buy Till you Die, and commercially, we can account for all of that. We have our basic core model, but then we can bring in some of these other situations and bells and whistles to make it just a bit more flexible, and sometimes it's very important to do that.Edward: Are there industries where it doesn't apply like church attendance or travel to Florida? Are there things where that radically different than just like purchasing all of Amazon or it doesn't work? What are those crazy things do?Peter: It's so funny that you mentioned church attendance because that is exactly the domain where this model was first dreamed up. I kid you not, Don Morrison who was a professor at Columbia at the time and then moved to UCLA. He's recently retired but is he just an interesting guy. He dreamed up this model literally while he was sitting in church in the Upper West Side in New York. He was looking at some empty pews and saying Mr. and Mrs. Smith, sit over there.They missed this week, but you know what, they're often sporadic about their attendance, so that's okay, but Mr. and Mrs. Jones, they usually sit over there and they never miss church. The fact that they're not here this week, gets me worried about it. I wonder if they're ever coming back. He actually dreamed up this model, and then did the math behind it in church, and then applied it to lots of other settings like that, whether it's nonprofits. Whether it's event attendance, all kinds of things, works really, really well there.Almost any setting where people are making repeated decisions to do something, whether there's a purchase involved or not. It might be watching a particular media like we've applied these models to Hulu. Whether it's visiting a website. Whether it is making a purchase. Whether it's posting social media content. It's just remarkable how well this simple model can characterize forecast behavior.Edward: Where is the resistance of the idea? You've been working on this stuff for decades, and yet I don't feel that it's like inundated the popular consciousness of business, even among experts in business and people who are the gurus of this stuff. Where's the resistance coming from?Peter: From lots of different sides, especially when we talk about marketing. Yesterday, we were talking about how I have this heightened respect for the finance people. Even though I'm a marketer, there's a lot of BS that goes on in marketing.When I bring these models forward, a lot of people will say, well, that might work well for company A, but our company is different, our practices are different, our customers are different, and besides, we're constantly being disrupted. We're constantly changing.Marketers will come up with all kinds of excuses not to have some formal, regular, predictable characterization of customer behavior. I can go to them and say, give me some data. I'll show you how well it works. I don't even, you know what, you only give me half the data. We'll hold out the other half, and we'll show you how well the forecasts work, and this is what I've been doing for decades, and they'll still push back.They'll say, okay, you know what, you can go talk to the nerds and analytics, but I have a business to run here. I need to focus on the brand. I need to focus on which celebrity we want for our Super Bowl ad, and they just don't want to be bothered with this technical stuff, but it wasn't till we commercialize it through Zodiac, which we spoke a little bit about yesterday.Especially now that we're starting to win over CFOs and other finance people who can see how well these models will help them do their job, and they are willing to trust models. They are willing to look at forecasts and not only accept, but look for regularities in the marketplace. That's been very, very, very helpful. Again, once the CFO accepts something, it makes it much easier to get the CMO on board as well, but sometimes they're still will be resistance. That's one of the reasons why I've been writing a lot besides founding the companies.One of the things that we haven't touched on is all of these kinds of books that I've been writing. All these books on customers' centricity, that are just basically a façade, a motivation, a Trojan horse, to get people to accept the models, to get people to care, to get people of want to run them, to get people to trust the outputs from them.Writing these books on customer centricity has also been very helpful, but again, sometimes companies will say, okay, okay, okay, I'm with you, how do we do this? Then we'll start to bring in the models, and then their eyes glaze over once again. It's hard. It's getting easier, but it's no guarantee.Edward: Can you give some examples of why it matters? Now I have these models, the models predict my future customer purchases far more accurately than anything before. My lifetime value of my customers could be different now. What does it actually change? Now I'm a CMO running my business, and I'm trying to figure out my next Super bowl ad. What is it going to change and what I'm actually doing on a day to day basis?Peter: Yeah. There are some enormous implications that pop right out of the models. One of them is summarized pretty well in the subtitle of my first book. The book is called Customer Centricity, which doesn't really mean anything, but the subtitle, Focus On The Right Customers For Strategic Advantage.There's really three messages there. Message number one is that not all customers are created equal, you better not talk about the customer, and you better not focus on the average customer because they're wildly different from each other. Thing number two is that the customers on the right tail of the distribution, they're not only more valuable than most of your customers, they're orders of magnitude more valuable. I mean, there's, wow, are they good? Wow, are they going to continue to be good? Thing number three is, there are ways that we can build our business around them. Let's really focus on those very, very valuable customers. Again, I'm talking about projected value. Not just historical value, although the two might line up with each other. Let's say what makes them different. How do they use and talk about our products differently from the average soso customers? What other services can we surround them with? How do we acquire more customers like them and what are we willing to pay to do so? If we can build our business around those really good customers, we can make more money in a sustainable, defendable, ethical way than just trying to play it right down the middle, saying, will our average customer find this product or message appealing? It's wildly different than the usual way that people go to market, but the models strongly support it. That's why I spent a lot of time racing, okay, you got the models fine, but let's really talk about these implications, and they really matter.It's been very gratifying to see a number of companies—I wish there were more—but a number of companies waking up smelling the lifetime value and starting to make decisions accordingly.Edward: Is that the opposite of what Byron Sharp would say? Because Byron Sharp says, I think that your loyalty is effectively a function of your market share, and the way to get more loyal customers is just to get more customers and some percentage will be loyal. As you get more market share, your loyalty increases, and your double jeopardy law applies. Do you argue against that or is it a supplement to that?Peter: It's a supplement. I'm glad you phrase it that way because pretty much everything that Byron Sharp, and of course, his original role model Andrew Ehrenberg said, 90% of that stuff is correct. Even there, it's going against the grain of conventional wisdom.I am just adding an extra layer on top of it. I agree with the notions that you just described, the double jeopardy law, the duplication of purchase law. If your listeners aren't familiar with it, and that means that they're not listening to you enough, because I know you do a good job of talking about it.Byron and company don't go quite far enough. I mean that in two ways. Number one, they assume that the models that they build, the fancy word for them would be the Dirichlet Multinomial Model. They assume that it's stationary. They assume that it's static. They assume that yes, there's the heterogeneity, but people don't change over time, and they do. They do in the way that we've been describing, Buy Till you Die, that there will be some non-stationary.There will be some worsening of customers, and it's important to capture that. When we add that extra layer in, it does not take away from double jeopardy, it just adds another light to it. Here's the other part is that, again, Byron and company acknowledge that customers are heterogeneous, but they refuse to acknowledge that some of those customers in the right tail are so, so, so, so, so good that if we put a little bit of extra attention on them, that we can do better than just trying to be everybody's best friend. All these things fit together, and I could get into lots more technical detail with it. Again, I believe everything that Byron says but he's leaving money on the table, by not allowing behavior change over time, and by not fully exploiting heterogeneity as much as I do. His points about, you still need to focus on mass marketing, and you still need to come up with products that are broadly appealing, I actually do believe all of that stuff. It's just that we want to put a disproportionate amount of attention for the care feeding and acquisition of those extra special customers.Edward: I think I've totally bought in on to the acquisition side of things. I think more acquisition is always great. My concern a little bit is about you have these customers who are really, really, really good customers for you already. To go and give them additional incentives to go and buy more, at a certain point, the really good customers are almost spending all their wallets within the category with you already. They're already super loyal. How do you shift them to become even more loyal? Am I missing the point?Peter: I got two words for you. First of all, and I never said the word incentives. That's your word, not mine. We got to find other ways to be crass about it, to squeeze more money out of them. Here are my two words, premium services. It's as simple as that.You think about something like a LinkedIn premium. At first, there was a lot of pushback about a lot of the features and functions of LinkedIn premium offered. Folks at LinkedIn were saying, well, man, most of our customers don't want that stuff. Why should we offer it?Well, the fact is, there are those right tail customers who are so good and use you so much, and use you so differently than everybody else. If we can come up with products and services that meet their fairly idiosyncratic needs and get them to pay for them, then we can make more money than just trying to sell them the same stuff over and over and over.I look at something like Twitter. I'm a big power user of Twitter. I know you are, too. There's no question that I would pay $10 a month for all kinds of features and functions that most people couldn't care less about, to edit my tweets, to have more control over my timeline, to have more visibility, and whatever. There's a whole bunch of things that power users would want to use, but companies like Twitter, Facebook, and so many others are just too chickenshit to go out there and make these premium services a priority.Jack Dorsey has made some noise about it recently but gets to it. That your heavy users want to pay more money, as long as they're getting good value for it. I think that's the key. It's not just giving them incentives. It's not giving them freebies, because you're right. They're going to buy from you anyway. It's getting to pay for more stuff that most customers wouldn't want.Edward: Is the opportunity more in a product than it is in marketing? It should be helping to product team more than the marketing team?Peter: It's a little bit of both. There's no doubt that we need to come up with products and services that are uniquely appealing to those customers will help us acquire more like them, but it is also in the messaging.Instead of just going to an ad agency and saying, hey, ad agency, come up with a fun ad. I look at what some companies doing in my favorite company on these lines would be EA, the game company, Electronic Arts. They will look at their most valuable customers every day, by the way. They're updating lifetime value for every single one of their multi-billion customers around the world. They'll look at the most valuable ones and say let's look at how they're playing a certain game. Whether it's Battlefield, Madden Football, or SimCity, and let's find out how our power users are using the game, talking about the game, what things they're doing in the game, and let's feature those kinds of aspects in our next set of ads.Let's change our messaging as well, to make other customers aware of some of these features and some of these uses because maybe they'll find that appealing, or maybe it will help us acquire new customers, who will then become power users themselves.There are ways to take some of these forward-looking metrics and models and use them in messaging as well, but you're right. It is more about either developing products and services or partnering with other firms. Maybe we won't even make any money on it, but if we can go to our best customers and say, we're going to surround you with all of these different sources of value, we're going to build a whole ecosystem for you. That's the way to lock them in and acquire more like them.Edward: Can we do most of that without your models? I imagine most marketers know who their best customers are, or they can find that out fairly simply without a great deal of math. And then once they know who their best customers are, they can then go and build products and services for them. They can go try to acquire more of those customers. At what point do they need to have a Buy Till you Die model to do that?Peter: It's an excellent point and the answer is yes. Let me elaborate. I'm so obsessed with these models, not only because of their practical value but even just because of their mathy elegance. That maybe I get into the model too much, and I used to really believe as I was writing the books and founding Zodiac that I can just give you the CLV magic wand, that money will just come raining down from the sky.You're right that the models are just a means to an end, and you can actually come up with some decent proxies for lifetime value. It might be based on historical value, it might be based on something like Net Promoter Score.There could be all kinds of proxies that aren't quite as accurate, aren't as predictive, aren't as precise as the models themselves, but they still do a pretty good job of sorting out who the good customers are from the not so good ones.The harder part is, first of all, just to look for that. It's just to say that's what we got to do is to sort our customers out. To develop the insights, the capabilities, the organization, the corporate culture, to allow us to do all the things that I was just talking about a minute ago. That's the hard part, and absolutely, you could get away with some imperfect proxies of lifetime value, as long as you have the capability to do all the other stuff that I mentioned before.You're right. You don't necessarily start with the models. You start with the mindset, you start with the tactics. You start with the organization and the messaging, and then once you're comfortable that you can do that, okay. Now let's bring the models in.Edward: To refine it and make it better. If you're a CMO, and you're looking to make initial steps to move in this direction, because, again, at any large organization, we know that trying to change radically is very difficult. What's the Trojan horse to get this thing started?Peter: Yes. I come in lots of different ways. I mentioned the books before, so let's start the sea level, and say the sky is falling, you're doomed to fail. It's going to be an utter catastrophe unless you repent and follow me. I'm overstating a little bit there, but this basically says there are fundamentally different strategies that you haven't thought about before. They're going to really celebrate the heterogeneity of your customers that can help you make more money. Let's start trying a big picture, like what are the limitations of traditional growth strategies? What are the windows to some of these new ones?There's all that and then there's the data. Again, I've glorified the models maybe too much. I'm in the process of writing my brand new book, with my partner in crime, Bruce Hardy, and yet a new partner in crime Michael Ross, interesting guys. This new book is going to be called The Customer Base Audit: The first step on the journey to customer's centricity. Before we have any models, before we have any forecasts, before we look forward at all, let's just look at our historical data, stuff that's right there at our fingertips. To understand a lot of these ideas that I've been talking about, about how customers differ from each other, about how they differ over time and about how they differ from each other and how they differ over time.Let's take a look back and just understand the basic patterns, but do so in a way that's both simple, but also very sea level motivating. Let's just get you to appreciate the goal that's in them their hills and to really motivate the strategies, the models, and all that thing.I'm coming at it every which way. Whether it's looking at historical data, whether it's writing books, whether it's focusing on finance, whether it's looking at other bizarre use cases of the models, I'm coming at it from every angle, eventually hoping that the message gets through and that the company says, you know what, let's try it out. Again, it's a long, long road ahead, but it's been working reasonably well over the last few years.Edward: When is that book going to be up here?Peter: Well, we're about halfway done with it. Actually, I just sent a revised proposal to my publisher, Wharton School Press. Sometimes, I'm going to guess, the middle of 2021, but then if any of your listeners are interested, I could probably send at least a sneak preview, a quick overview or even a sample table of contents, because we're really interested in these ideas, and the way that it really helped us build a bridge, from the big broad, almost qualitative strategies, to the technical forward-looking models to really complete the whole picture.I think is going to really make a difference, and this is, by the way, is the first place I've spoken about it. You're getting an exclusive, and I hope people find it appealing.Edward: I hope so too. Thank you so much for being on the show today, Peter. Before you go, can you talk to me about your quake book? What book really changed the way you thought about the world, and you can't use one of your own.Peter: I wish it was some mathy kind of thing, and there's no doubt that some of the books, papers, or journals that I've read as a professor have helped me out. But one book that makes me say whoa, and then I go back and read again and again and again, it's going to sound really strange, is Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut.I'm sure that a lot of your listeners might have seen that book years ago. Go back and read that book again. It's astonishing, just the creativity, just the mind-blowing alternative worlds that Vonnegut creates. I found that so inspirational, just in how I tried to think that there are no limits, and now I think that I can be just a wild creative guy and get away with it. Besides the literal story there, there are so many lifelong metaphors that are taken from that book. I'm going to sound really strange, but I can't recommend that one enough.Edward: Thank you, Peter. This has been fantastic. I would love to have you on again.Peter: It's always a pleasure talking to you and I look forward to the next opportunity. This is a public episode.
