<v Speaker 1>Turned evangelist for Christ. Here he is your host, my host,

<v Speaker 1>and more. Thank you for listening to us in seventeen

11

<v Speaker 1>countries worldwide. And what is Let's Get Biblical? You may

12
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.600
<v Speaker 1>be thinking, maybe you're a believer, maybe you're a non believer,

13
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe you're an atheist. You come on in because we're

14
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>about to share the Gospel in a unique way where

15
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:09.239
<v Speaker 1>we believe in testimony. Transparency leads to transformation. That's what

16
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we believe in here on Let's Get Biblical. With being

17
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>a former stand up comedian, sometimes we can get a

18
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:17.239
<v Speaker 1>little silly, sometimes we can get it a little crazy,

19
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:20.280
<v Speaker 1>but we always keep it biblical here on the show.

20
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 1>And thank you for joining us here in the month

21
00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:25.879
<v Speaker 1>of October for our series called Keeping It Real. As

22
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I just said, we're keeping it real in the Bible,

23
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.519
<v Speaker 1>we kept it real in the end of Times. We

24
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>are now keeping it real with fakeness in the world.

25
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Did that hit some people? Fakeness? We all put on

26
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:40.760
<v Speaker 1>these masks. We'll talk about that coming up. We'll call

27
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:43.719
<v Speaker 1>out social media, We'll call out our very own churches

28
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:46.959
<v Speaker 1>where we put on these masks every single day. What

29
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:49.439
<v Speaker 1>does the Bible say about it, what are we going

30
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:54.159
<v Speaker 1>to do about it? And also where will it lead us? Ultimately? Also,

31
00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the show, we do have a

32
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:58.879
<v Speaker 1>gift for you guys. If you're a non believer, believer

33
00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:01.719
<v Speaker 1>or atheist, stick around at the end of the show,

34
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 1>we do have something for you. Know, it's not a Bible,

35
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:06.879
<v Speaker 1>but stick around and hang out with us anyway, because

36
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I'd love to say that this show is kind of

37
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>like sitting down in a small group or maybe getting

38
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:14.280
<v Speaker 1>ready to have dinner or lunch with your friends, and

39
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 1>we're just sharing life. That's what we're doing. Okay, I'm

40
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.080
<v Speaker 1>sharing some testimony, sharing some scriptures. I trust you you're

41
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>not going to burn a that of hell because we

42
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:26.319
<v Speaker 1>drop a verse on you. Okay, maybe that could be

43
00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>at a later date. If you don't follow christ that's

44
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.759
<v Speaker 1>another story for another time. But if you guys have

45
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.439
<v Speaker 1>been following this program over the last couple of years,

46
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 1>we thank you. We try to have a little bit

47
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of fun with this program. We do broadcast live now

48
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 1>from time to time on TikTok at podcaster Katie, and

49
00:02:41.719 --> 00:02:44.560
<v Speaker 1>we're going to be broadcasting live on YouTube in twenty

50
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.240
<v Speaker 1>twenty six, so make sure you go like and subscribe

51
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>to our YouTube page as well. Let's get biblical with Katie,

52
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and let's do that today. I want to talk a

53
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:55.400
<v Speaker 1>little bit about fakeness. I want to talk about mask.

54
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 1>We are broadcasting right now in the third week of October,

55
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.120
<v Speaker 1>and right around the owner is Halloween. Gee, do you

56
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 1>think we plan this show a little bit? Normally we

57
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:08.199
<v Speaker 1>don't plan shows. I know we don't plan what I'm

58
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.400
<v Speaker 1>saying out of my mouth, I will tell you that much.

59
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:13.639
<v Speaker 1>It's the Holy Spirit that's invoked upon me and my

60
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 1>personality at the same time. So be prepared, be ready,

61
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.199
<v Speaker 1>be warned. Okay, with Halloween right around the corner, our

62
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:22.400
<v Speaker 1>children are getting ready to go out on trick or tree.

63
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:25.000
<v Speaker 1>They're going out to put on masks. They're getting to

64
00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>be characters like the Avengers or whatever they want to be,

65
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.479
<v Speaker 1>to be something different. Well, we tend to do this

66
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:33.759
<v Speaker 1>in our world right now. We tend to be a

67
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>little different and put on masks every single day. I've

68
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>got the podcaster mask on right now. I've got the

69
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:42.840
<v Speaker 1>entertainer mask on right now, I've got the pastoral mask

70
00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 1>on right now. We all have masks and it's okay.

71
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.319
<v Speaker 1>But the problem is some of us get stuck behind

72
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>that mask and we start to believe in what that

73
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.919
<v Speaker 1>mask is. You ever seen the movie with Jim Carrey,

74
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.439
<v Speaker 1>The Mask where he finds the mask in the water

75
00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:58.719
<v Speaker 1>and it sucks right onto his face and it takes

76
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:02.159
<v Speaker 1>over his whole life, body and soul. We see this

77
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.360
<v Speaker 1>in the world today. We see it with our big

78
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.919
<v Speaker 1>name entertainers. Lady Gaga, I'm not throwing any names out there, okay,

79
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:10.879
<v Speaker 1>I am. If you watch the VMAs a couple weeks back,

80
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.719
<v Speaker 1>this is a woman who puts on tons of masks.

81
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:16.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to go into saying if it's demonic

82
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.519
<v Speaker 1>or non demonic or that that's another show for another time,

83
00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:22.759
<v Speaker 1>of course. But we are battling forces of good and evil.

84
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:27.560
<v Speaker 1>We are battling the flesh. We are battling spiritual battles

85
00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:30.959
<v Speaker 1>every single day. So why wouldn't we battle masks? I

86
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 1>want to put that out there. You probably put out

87
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 1>a mask. You go to work, right, you put on

88
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>your work mask. You're not the same person at work

89
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:40.720
<v Speaker 1>as you are at home with your kids. You put

90
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:43.639
<v Speaker 1>on the mom and dad mask, not the same person

91
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that you would be maybe in the bedroom with your

92
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>significant other. If you're a mom and dad, right, you

93
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>act a certain way around the people that you're supposed

94
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.600
<v Speaker 1>to be. Some people call that adapting adaptability. I call

95
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 1>it a mask. Why can we let the light of

96
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Jesus shine in our hearts on the world. That's what

97
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>we're supposed to do, right, We're supposed to be the

98
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:08.759
<v Speaker 1>light of the world and the salt of the earth.

99
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:11.519
<v Speaker 1>That's what we're supposed to be doing. This took me

100
00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:13.800
<v Speaker 1>a long time to realize this, as being a former

101
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.759
<v Speaker 1>stand up comedian in the world of entertainment, I did

102
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.920
<v Speaker 1>it for over fifteen years. I was on the verge

103
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.800
<v Speaker 1>of maybe getting things really rolling, because they say, if

104
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.079
<v Speaker 1>you've been in the business for over twelve years, you

105
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:28.720
<v Speaker 1>start to see things start to happen. And I was

106
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:31.079
<v Speaker 1>pretty close. Okay. I was actually in the world of

107
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.839
<v Speaker 1>entertainment over fifteen years. I was in stand up comedy

108
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:38.839
<v Speaker 1>for twelve, so I started kind of seeing the precipice

109
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:41.439
<v Speaker 1>and the fruits of my labor starting to come to be.

110
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I was performing in places. I was going in and

111
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.319
<v Speaker 1>out of places, making money. I was getting a little

112
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.600
<v Speaker 1>bit of notoriety on the East Coast with bookers and agents,

113
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:53.720
<v Speaker 1>not as big as I probably could have been or

114
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:56.120
<v Speaker 1>could have gone. But that's not where the Lord wanted

115
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 1>me to be. He didn't want me to put on

116
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>that mask of a stand up comedian. I would go

117
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.639
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes as a stand up comedian. That's the

118
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:07.959
<v Speaker 1>face I put on. Nobody knew who the real KD was.

119
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:11.079
<v Speaker 1>Could the real KD please stand up? I mean, even

120
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 1>Eminem has an alter ego, right, Eminem. I'm not talking

121
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 1>about the candies for some of your old heads out

122
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:19.720
<v Speaker 1>there older than me, by the way, Okay, Eminem is

123
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:22.879
<v Speaker 1>a hip hop artist whose real name is Marshall Mathers. Okay,

124
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:24.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll put it there. Having a little bit of fun

125
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>with you today as well. But everybody does masks? How

126
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 1>do we get rid of mask? Why do we do them?

127
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Whilst for protection, you're putting up a wall, You're putting

128
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.279
<v Speaker 1>up a face in a front to make yourself look

129
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>better than you are. I'm going to be the first

130
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:40.000
<v Speaker 1>one to tell you that's what I did as a

131
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.959
<v Speaker 1>stand up comic. And right now you're starting to see

132
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.399
<v Speaker 1>that light burst through these masks because I'm sharing testimony

133
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.959
<v Speaker 1>with you. Testimony is one of our biggest tools as

134
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:53.079
<v Speaker 1>evangelists and pastors to use in our lives to show

135
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>the light of Jesus. I really walked in a dark realm,

136
00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:00.439
<v Speaker 1>dark world as a comedian and actor I did. Even

137
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.040
<v Speaker 1>on the little realm that I did it, you could

138
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.360
<v Speaker 1>see how certain people were being transformed to ways they

139
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:10.120
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be transformed. I started walking with Christ while I

140
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.680
<v Speaker 1>was getting ready to kind of make a big name

141
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:17.279
<v Speaker 1>for myself, started working with big name artists Chris Catan,

142
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.680
<v Speaker 1>So for So and others. We'll put it that way.

143
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Try to be clever with my words right there, I apologize,

144
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>but I did work with big name people and starting

145
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>to get some connections, and then all of a sudden,

146
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:33.240
<v Speaker 1>when I started to see this dark world I was

147
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:37.519
<v Speaker 1>walking as a light of God. It wasn't working for me.

148
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.279
<v Speaker 1>I was still putting on the mask of a stand

149
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:43.560
<v Speaker 1>up comedian entertainer. But man, the light was trying to

150
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:45.720
<v Speaker 1>burst through that mask. Just like in the movie The

151
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 1>Mask with Jim Carrey, there is something about his personality.

152
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>He was a funny, goofy, outgoing guy, but behind the

153
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:56.639
<v Speaker 1>mask he could be whatever he want to be. He

154
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>want to be that smooth, devonair person. Guys, we do

155
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.759
<v Speaker 1>this all the time, especially when you're out in a

156
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:05.040
<v Speaker 1>bar or a club and you're trying to make a

157
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:06.959
<v Speaker 1>name for yourself with that lady at the end of

158
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 1>the bar. We see it all the time on social media.

159
00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna call out people on social media right now.

160
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.000
<v Speaker 1>We all do it. We all have these masks. I

161
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.439
<v Speaker 1>love watching these battles on TikTok. If you don't know

162
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:22.480
<v Speaker 1>what they are, it's influencers going up against each other,

163
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.079
<v Speaker 1>basically bickering and crying and complaining, trying to get you

164
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 1>to give them money and taps and likes and so

165
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:31.360
<v Speaker 1>they can come out on top of the victor. Some

166
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:33.480
<v Speaker 1>of these women will go on and put all this

167
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.120
<v Speaker 1>makeup and there'll be people that they're not. You know

168
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:40.679
<v Speaker 1>that they're lights of God and children of God underneath

169
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:43.279
<v Speaker 1>those masks. You know it. You can see it, especially

170
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:45.279
<v Speaker 1>if you're a believer and you walk in the light

171
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and you have the gift of discernment, you can see that.

172
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:52.799
<v Speaker 1>You can see how these masks are holding these people back.

173
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Social media is killing us these days. It is social

174
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:00.759
<v Speaker 1>media is killing us. Yes, we broadcast on social media,

175
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:04.320
<v Speaker 1>but that's the light in a dark world. And you

176
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 1>want to know how that's true. Well, if I were

177
00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:09.039
<v Speaker 1>to go on TikTok right now, or if I were

178
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:14.639
<v Speaker 1>to make a podcast talking about how to make brownies nude,

179
00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:16.799
<v Speaker 1>I bet you I would get one million hits. Not

180
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:19.879
<v Speaker 1>me personally, but if you put the words nude, you know,

181
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:23.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe twerking things of that nature, things that are of

182
00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>this world. If I put that into my titles or

183
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:31.799
<v Speaker 1>into my algorithms, I'd have a million hits. If I

184
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 1>wanted to go on the air and say that I

185
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:37.279
<v Speaker 1>was going to become trans and change, I would have

186
00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:42.360
<v Speaker 1>all these hits. But I'm not that I'm a child

187
00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:45.639
<v Speaker 1>of God. And we need to realize that we are

188
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.360
<v Speaker 1>children of God and we need to stop faking who

189
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:53.039
<v Speaker 1>we truly are. You may believe that you're going to

190
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:56.120
<v Speaker 1>go out and be that big name superstar, that singer

191
00:09:56.120 --> 00:09:59.360
<v Speaker 1>and entertainer, but you're going to hit a glass ceiling.

192
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Well you just will. I hit it. I know other actors,

193
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:07.960
<v Speaker 1>I know other singers that have done it. Because it's

194
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>now time to take your path elsewhere. Still use those

195
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:17.519
<v Speaker 1>talents elsewhere, but take that mask off because God wants

196
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:20.519
<v Speaker 1>you to be the person that he created. He wants

197
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>you to be that person that is that child of light.

198
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:27.080
<v Speaker 1>As we keep stressing, we were made in his image,

199
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:33.039
<v Speaker 1>not to put masks on. We weren't put masks on. Yeah,

200
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:35.639
<v Speaker 1>it's fun for the kids, and it's fun for Halloween,

201
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 1>and it's fun for costume parties. Sometimes, you know, to

202
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:42.759
<v Speaker 1>dress up, like I said, your favorite Avengers character or

203
00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:46.399
<v Speaker 1>whatever you like, three stooges. That is an old reference.

204
00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Jim Carryer the mask you can dress

205
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>up as. But in life, have you ever tried taking

206
00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:58.840
<v Speaker 1>your mask off? Have you ever tried taking that mask

207
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:03.240
<v Speaker 1>off and seeing what happens? Ah, you're cringing right now, right,

208
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.840
<v Speaker 1>you're cringing right now. That means vulnerability. That means you

209
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.679
<v Speaker 1>have to be humble. You have to really be the

210
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:14.159
<v Speaker 1>person that I don't know about that mask, Katie. I'm

211
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:16.919
<v Speaker 1>really comfortable in the mask that I'm behind right now.

212
00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Everybody thinks I'm this big star on YouTube and this

213
00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:25.600
<v Speaker 1>big star on social media. I have all this big following.

214
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:31.360
<v Speaker 1>I used to be there. I was the one trying

215
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>to strive for the numbers. I was about quantity and

216
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:40.120
<v Speaker 1>not quality. I'm more about the quality of friendships now

217
00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.919
<v Speaker 1>online and a community that we're building. And I want

218
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.159
<v Speaker 1>to say thank you for that. Those on TikTok that

219
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:49.679
<v Speaker 1>follow us. We're almost to what seven hundred followers. I

220
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:51.759
<v Speaker 1>know that's not a lot for some of you. Guys

221
00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:54.320
<v Speaker 1>have been on TikTok since it's been born and putting

222
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:57.639
<v Speaker 1>on all those those fake masks. Ooh, I said it,

223
00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.919
<v Speaker 1>putting on all the fake masks in order to get

224
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:05.840
<v Speaker 1>those numbers. But we're about building a community of believers

225
00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:11.480
<v Speaker 1>to have better faith for the next generation. I want

226
00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you guys to be able to follow Jesus and when

227
00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:18.200
<v Speaker 1>he returns, you're right there with him. We have to

228
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:22.320
<v Speaker 1>become more vulnerable and take these masks off. Society wants

229
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.200
<v Speaker 1>you to put on those fake lashes they want you

230
00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:28.720
<v Speaker 1>to put on those fake button plants. They want you guys.

231
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I see guys now, not just calling out the women. Now, Victoria,

232
00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:34.559
<v Speaker 1>how you doing calling you out here on the podcast

233
00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:37.039
<v Speaker 1>in a good way? By the way, men, I'm calling

234
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:42.480
<v Speaker 1>you out. Okay, you now have these like men girdles,

235
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I said it? Can I say men girdles? You have

236
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:49.559
<v Speaker 1>men girdles? You have shirts now that are tank tops

237
00:12:49.559 --> 00:12:51.559
<v Speaker 1>that you can put on and it sucks everything in

238
00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:54.120
<v Speaker 1>and you look all big and huge. How do I know?

239
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:57.759
<v Speaker 1>How do I know? I own one? I did the

240
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:01.840
<v Speaker 1>same thing. I'm not gonna lie behind these masks. We

241
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:05.799
<v Speaker 1>have all this stuff out there to change our identities today,

242
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:08.159
<v Speaker 1>and no, I'm not going there. If that's where you

243
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:10.759
<v Speaker 1>think I was going. Okay, we could do that show

244
00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:14.960
<v Speaker 1>for another time. Talking about changing your identity. That's taking

245
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:18.200
<v Speaker 1>you away from the person God meant you to be.

246
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:28.639
<v Speaker 1>We were made in His image, caring, loving, empathetic, humble, respectful, diligent,

247
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:34.519
<v Speaker 1>hard working, tough. But we've allowed the world to put

248
00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:39.559
<v Speaker 1>these masks on us. Wherever you're walking. Wherever you're walking,

249
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:43.799
<v Speaker 1>your job, maybe it's a job you don't want to

250
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:46.879
<v Speaker 1>be at, but you put this mask on, like, Hey,

251
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I love being here every day. I gotta do what

252
00:13:49.159 --> 00:13:51.759
<v Speaker 1>I gotta do because the bill's got to be paid,

253
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:54.240
<v Speaker 1>the kids have got to eat. All of a sudden,

254
00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:58.320
<v Speaker 1>the mask starts to crumble. But once the mask crumbles,

255
00:13:58.360 --> 00:14:00.519
<v Speaker 1>the light of God comes out, and he's right there

256
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:06.480
<v Speaker 1>next to you saying, I'm yours, your mine. When will

257
00:14:06.519 --> 00:14:09.080
<v Speaker 1>you see that I've got brighter and bigger things for

258
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>you to get out of that mask. I did this

259
00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:15.399
<v Speaker 1>when I first started walking in the church. Oh, good

260
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:20.559
<v Speaker 1>testimony here, Katie. I started my fakeness in my walk

261
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>when I started going into church. We'll talk about that

262
00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:26.759
<v Speaker 1>when we return. Here's one of my favorite songs out there,

263
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.919
<v Speaker 1>Christian song by the way by Christian rap artists called Lacrae.

264
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:34.159
<v Speaker 1>When I was starting out in faith, this is one

265
00:14:34.200 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite songs. Talk about fake and I knew

266
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:39.399
<v Speaker 1>a lot about I knew a lot of friends in

267
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.240
<v Speaker 1>my group that were very fake. I knew fake gangsters.

268
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.639
<v Speaker 1>I knew fat, tough guys. I knew fake women who

269
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:50.840
<v Speaker 1>thought they were super duper people on the outside, but

270
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:53.720
<v Speaker 1>they're just mean and nasty on the inside. We'll talk

271
00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.200
<v Speaker 1>about what type of person I was right.

272
00:14:56.080 --> 00:15:11.639
<v Speaker 3>After this, I'm riding, riding, I'm getting it, and they

273
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:14.759
<v Speaker 3>ride around pretending I've been had and I've been done

274
00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:17.360
<v Speaker 3>and I promised that its so limited and say they're riding.

275
00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Who got us?

276
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.679
<v Speaker 1>They put some baby stoop college.

277
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:21.759
<v Speaker 3>We're trying to act like the traffics cool because we

349
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:35.880
<v Speaker 1>For your old heads out there that tune into the podcast,

350
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:39.079
<v Speaker 1>that was hip hop for you, Okay, that was wrapped

351
00:18:39.160 --> 00:18:42.079
<v Speaker 1>for you. Hey, we got to attract the young generation too,

352
00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:45.759
<v Speaker 1>because that's what faking's all about. It is attacking our

353
00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>younger generation. It's attacking them through social media, making them

354
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:52.720
<v Speaker 1>into influencers that they may not become or where the

355
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.519
<v Speaker 1>Lord wants them to go. They're all stuck up in

356
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:58.880
<v Speaker 1>the world of the logan Pauls and more, seeing that

357
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.000
<v Speaker 1>this man can pretty much control the world through social media.

358
00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.200
<v Speaker 1>But there's only one man that can ultimately control the

359
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:06.880
<v Speaker 1>world in your life, and that's Jesus Christ. That's why

360
00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:10.359
<v Speaker 1>we're here today talking about masks, talking about faking. We

361
00:19:10.519 --> 00:19:13.319
<v Speaker 1>kind of do this show once a year, and I

362
00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:17.440
<v Speaker 1>only do it because I stumble across it. It's a

363
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.880
<v Speaker 1>time of the year where everybody is going to put

364
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:24.319
<v Speaker 1>their masks on for Halloween, getting prepped for Halloween. What

365
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.319
<v Speaker 1>mask are you going to use? You're going to go

366
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:30.079
<v Speaker 1>into that spirits warehouse where you pick up your masks.

367
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Now believers, deep believers. I know something else. Do not

368
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.160
<v Speaker 1>celebrate Halloween, and that is perfectly fine. I'm a trunk

369
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.160
<v Speaker 1>or treat type of guy. I'm also a fall fest

370
00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:43.079
<v Speaker 1>kind of guy. I'm not about the pumpkin spice though.

371
00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:46.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's just end that discussion right now. Not

372
00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:52.680
<v Speaker 1>about pumpkin spice anything, pumpkin spice, latte, pumpkin spice, old spice,

373
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:55.400
<v Speaker 1>under my armpits, nothing. I am not about that. But

374
00:19:55.519 --> 00:19:58.920
<v Speaker 1>we're in the year where masks are put on physically,

375
00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:04.359
<v Speaker 1>but we have masks on ourselves every year. And that

376
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:07.319
<v Speaker 1>song right there, Fake and by Lacree breaks it down

377
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:09.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot. One of the favorite verses I love. He

378
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:12.960
<v Speaker 1>was trying to act hard and thought he was tupac

379
00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:16.440
<v Speaker 1>until somebody rolled up and hit him with those two shots.

380
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.559
<v Speaker 1>That's not too difficult to break down for you old heads, right, Basically,

381
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:24.400
<v Speaker 1>he's a guy wanting to be a gangster, but he's

382
00:20:24.480 --> 00:20:28.640
<v Speaker 1>not hanging out. He stepped on the wrong shoes and

383
00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:32.240
<v Speaker 1>guess what his life was taken. You know, got a

384
00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:35.079
<v Speaker 1>guy who thinks he was scarface, but he's still pushing

385
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:37.400
<v Speaker 1>a three hundred. He thinks it's a Cadillac, but it's

386
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.200
<v Speaker 1>a three hundred. You know, we all think, hey, I'm

387
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:43.559
<v Speaker 1>going to jump in a Volkswagen Jetta. That's a Porsche. No,

388
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:48.200
<v Speaker 1>it's a Volkswagen Jetta. You know, We're grow up in

389
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:51.319
<v Speaker 1>a world where the haves and the have nots, and

390
00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:53.880
<v Speaker 1>we see the people that have a lot, and we

391
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:56.720
<v Speaker 1>want to achieve to be that when we don't have

392
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.319
<v Speaker 1>Christ in our life. We want to be the star

393
00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:02.680
<v Speaker 1>on the screen. We want to be the Sabrina Carpenter,

394
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:05.079
<v Speaker 1>we want to be the Lady Gaga, and we want

395
00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:07.960
<v Speaker 1>to be the Will Smith. Notice I didn't say Chris Rock.

396
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:11.519
<v Speaker 1>I said Will Smith. All right, okay, but I'd rather

397
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:16.559
<v Speaker 1>be Chris Rock. Why. He's a humble dude, and the

398
00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:18.480
<v Speaker 1>way he took it, he could have easily swung back.

399
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 1>He could have easily had his boys jump Will afterwards.

400
00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:27.160
<v Speaker 1>He's humble. He's humble. But we put these masks on,

401
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and isn't he get tiring? It's tiring to put these

402
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:35.839
<v Speaker 1>masks on, guys. I don't even like to do it now.

403
00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you do have to adapt in an environment that

404
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you're in, so you act a certain way, but that

405
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:46.240
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have you break out the light of Jesus, especially

406
00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:49.599
<v Speaker 1>if you're just walking in faith. I get it myself

407
00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:52.319
<v Speaker 1>when I walk into a room now, I try to

408
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:56.200
<v Speaker 1>deliver Jesus the most that I can. You know, I

409
00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.480
<v Speaker 1>can walk into a restaurant, whether I say the words

410
00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:03.599
<v Speaker 1>God bless, whether I say have a great day, that

411
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Jesus loves you. These are things I never would have

412
00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:10.079
<v Speaker 1>said behind masks, because why the world doesn't want you

413
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:12.519
<v Speaker 1>to say these things. The world doesn't want you to

414
00:22:12.599 --> 00:22:16.359
<v Speaker 1>say the name of Jesus. But when you say it

415
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:20.559
<v Speaker 1>out loud, that's when people tremble and lives are transformed. Jesus,

416
00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:23.640
<v Speaker 1>it's the most powerful name in the world. So why

417
00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:29.920
<v Speaker 1>hide behind a mask when you can speak the name

418
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.759
<v Speaker 1>of Jesus and bring the light out in somebody else's life.

419
00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:39.960
<v Speaker 1>It's hard, though, right, It's hard because we have these circles,

420
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:43.799
<v Speaker 1>We have these social circles, especially our young kids today.

421
00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:48.160
<v Speaker 1>We have these social circles where no, you know, she's

422
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:51.039
<v Speaker 1>wearing those cool shoes, and he's wearing that cool hat,

423
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:53.680
<v Speaker 1>and I know that hat costs fifty dollars and that

424
00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:56.720
<v Speaker 1>the shoes cost three hundred mom, Dad, Can I get it.

425
00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:58.519
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in that world. I grew up in

426
00:22:58.599 --> 00:23:00.359
<v Speaker 1>that world. I was that kid. I didn't grow up

427
00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:03.519
<v Speaker 1>in the church. I did not grow up in the church.

428
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:07.920
<v Speaker 1>My kids are growing up in the church, though completely

429
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:12.880
<v Speaker 1>different children, very humble children at times. Let's be honest.

430
00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.799
<v Speaker 1>I have an eight year old. Sometimes it's not that humble.

431
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:22.640
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't understand sometimes when the bank accounts a little low.

432
00:23:24.200 --> 00:23:26.839
<v Speaker 1>But it's okay. We share love with him and spend

433
00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:29.000
<v Speaker 1>time with our children, and that's what we do. We

434
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:32.559
<v Speaker 1>influence our kids' lives. We influence it with the light

435
00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:34.799
<v Speaker 1>of Jesus. I said the word light a lot today.

436
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I say the word light because the mask covers it

437
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.160
<v Speaker 1>all up. I don't want you, guys to cover up

438
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:43.720
<v Speaker 1>your faces no more. I want you to cover up

439
00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:47.759
<v Speaker 1>what your world truly is. Let it shine. You ever,

440
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 1>think if you show your broken side, that somebody might

441
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:57.480
<v Speaker 1>be listening and want to help you get back together again.

442
00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:03.279
<v Speaker 1>Think about that. You may be broken inside, but there

443
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:06.359
<v Speaker 1>might be somebody. If you let your guard down, take

444
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:10.119
<v Speaker 1>your mask off, somebody is ready to put you back

445
00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:15.759
<v Speaker 1>together again. That person's Jesus. He's waiting for you. He's

446
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>calling for you. He's always like knocking. Sometimes the knock

447
00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:24.519
<v Speaker 1>is really light, it's really light. Then it gets louder

448
00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:29.039
<v Speaker 1>and he's like, hi, McFly. Let me in one of

449
00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:35.400
<v Speaker 1>our favorite phrases around here. I had to shed this

450
00:24:35.559 --> 00:24:43.519
<v Speaker 1>humility pretty quick. And if you can shed that's ego.

451
00:24:43.680 --> 00:24:46.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you can shed that ego pretty quick,

452
00:24:46.119 --> 00:24:48.839
<v Speaker 1>humility sets in. And when humility sets in, that mask

453
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:52.319
<v Speaker 1>will come off. I'm at that point in my life. Yes,

454
00:24:52.400 --> 00:24:55.279
<v Speaker 1>I may be an older guy, I may be one

455
00:24:55.359 --> 00:24:59.759
<v Speaker 1>with knowledge and white hairs of wisdom in my face.

456
00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>But here's the thing. Sometimes I get caught up in

457
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:11.400
<v Speaker 1>masks because the world wants us behind one. Why do

458
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:17.640
<v Speaker 1>you think that is? That's because the opposition knows what's

459
00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:23.039
<v Speaker 1>in you. The opposition knows what's in you. So what

460
00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:27.519
<v Speaker 1>does the Bible say about masks, Well, it says masks

461
00:25:27.559 --> 00:25:31.319
<v Speaker 1>about religious masks, like people who put on fake masks

462
00:25:31.720 --> 00:25:33.599
<v Speaker 1>at church. There's a lot of people that do it.

463
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.799
<v Speaker 1>You see it every week. I'm blessed and highly favored. Hey,

464
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:40.359
<v Speaker 1>how you doing. I'm fantastic. Man, just got a new car.

465
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I've been working.

466
00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Man.

467
00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:44.880
<v Speaker 1>The Lord is great. While he's trying to pay for

468
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:47.559
<v Speaker 1>that car. That's nine hundred dollars a month. But he

469
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:50.559
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make that much money and he's slowly dying. Inside

470
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:56.599
<v Speaker 1>church people do it too, Followers of Christ do it daily.

471
00:25:58.480 --> 00:26:02.680
<v Speaker 1>But if we obey and follow the Lord, the patterns

472
00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:06.039
<v Speaker 1>of this world will change. It just will happen. Saw

473
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a great picture on TikTok on somebody's lives, so shout

474
00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:13.200
<v Speaker 1>out to them. They put a picture up. There is

475
00:26:13.319 --> 00:26:15.880
<v Speaker 1>a red line. It looks like lava that people are

476
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:19.359
<v Speaker 1>walking along this lava river, and there's a lot of

477
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 1>them in overhead it says people who follow God. Then

478
00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:26.799
<v Speaker 1>on the other side there's maybe about ten people in

479
00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:31.680
<v Speaker 1>blue following like a blue river, And these are the

480
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:35.960
<v Speaker 1>people who obey God. Do you follow or obey God?

481
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you don't do either. Right now, when you're hanging

482
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:41.759
<v Speaker 1>on to that rock to climb up to get to

483
00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:44.319
<v Speaker 1>that position, this is your moment. This is your moment

484
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:48.440
<v Speaker 1>right now. This is you climbing up that rock. The

485
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Bible doesn't say much about masks spiritually, however, there is

486
00:26:54.920 --> 00:27:01.759
<v Speaker 1>a couple good versus about shame, regret, denial, and the

487
00:27:01.799 --> 00:27:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Book of Romans pretty much kind of sums it up.

488
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:07.519
<v Speaker 1>Chapter nine, verse thirty three says some things, and so

489
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:10.160
<v Speaker 1>does Romans eight one. Let's read a little bit. So

490
00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:13.839
<v Speaker 1>now there is no condemnation for those who belong to

491
00:27:13.960 --> 00:27:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the Christ Jesus. Then it goes on saying in chapter nine,

492
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:21.200
<v Speaker 1>verse thirty three, whoever believes in him will not be

493
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:25.440
<v Speaker 1>put to shame. The reason why I said these verses

494
00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:30.119
<v Speaker 1>here is because shame is a form of mask. We're

495
00:27:30.160 --> 00:27:32.119
<v Speaker 1>a shamed to be the person that the Lord has

496
00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:34.759
<v Speaker 1>made us, or God has made us to be, and

497
00:27:34.839 --> 00:27:38.960
<v Speaker 1>where the Lord is trying to lead us. We're ashamed

498
00:27:39.079 --> 00:27:41.240
<v Speaker 1>of the world that we are in. We want to

499
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.400
<v Speaker 1>be like those people over there. We want to be

500
00:27:43.599 --> 00:27:47.359
<v Speaker 1>like that person right there. But when you become the

501
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:51.839
<v Speaker 1>person that God meant you to be, your world is

502
00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:55.319
<v Speaker 1>set on fire, not just for yourself, not just for others,

503
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.119
<v Speaker 1>but for the Lord, which is an amazing feeling. Again,

504
00:27:58.279 --> 00:28:02.599
<v Speaker 1>Romans eight one says, so now there is no condemnation

505
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:05.920
<v Speaker 1>for those who belong to Jesus Christ. You shall not

506
00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:09.240
<v Speaker 1>be condemned, You shall not feel shame. You shouldn't feel

507
00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:13.519
<v Speaker 1>like you have to keep up with the Joneses. Rest

508
00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:16.920
<v Speaker 1>your laurels today. On Romans eight one, if there's anything

509
00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:20.559
<v Speaker 1>you take out of this program today Romans eight one,

510
00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:25.519
<v Speaker 1>Romans eight one, and for us broadcasting on at podcaster

511
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:28.599
<v Speaker 1>Katie on TikTok. Right now, we'll put those verses in

512
00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the chat with our after show. So now there is

513
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:40.839
<v Speaker 1>no condemnation for those who belong in Christ Jesus. This

514
00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:43.519
<v Speaker 1>is how I feel, ever since turning my life over

515
00:28:43.640 --> 00:28:46.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Lord. I don't care what people think. I

516
00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:48.920
<v Speaker 1>don't when I was a stand up comic, I cared

517
00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:52.799
<v Speaker 1>about everything anybody thought because I didn't want to upset anybody.

518
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't want to do this. I didn't want to

519
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:56.640
<v Speaker 1>do that because I wanted to keep the numbers and

520
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.559
<v Speaker 1>keep the fans. I don't care about that no more.

521
00:28:59.559 --> 00:29:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I care about the one that may be watching, the

522
00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:03.279
<v Speaker 1>one that may be listening, the one that needs to

523
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:07.119
<v Speaker 1>hear it, that may be you today Romans eight one.

524
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:09.960
<v Speaker 1>So now there is no condemnation for those who belong

525
00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:13.279
<v Speaker 1>to Jesus, don't. I don't feel any condemnation. I don't

526
00:29:13.359 --> 00:29:15.960
<v Speaker 1>need to act a certain way. Even when you're new

527
00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:19.839
<v Speaker 1>in church, sometimes you'll put on that mask. Right, I've

528
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:23.200
<v Speaker 1>done this before too. I'll call out church people. Maybe

529
00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you go into that new small group where you're learning

530
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:27.720
<v Speaker 1>about a section of the Bible, say the Book of Romans.

531
00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:30.359
<v Speaker 1>So you'll read a little bit on Romans. You'll just

532
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:32.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of cliff note version it. You'll break it down

533
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:35.559
<v Speaker 1>just so you know enough, and you'll put that mask

534
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:37.680
<v Speaker 1>on and you'll be the first one to say, yeah,

535
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:40.759
<v Speaker 1>I know Romans nine thirty three. Hey, Romans this and

536
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:44.079
<v Speaker 1>this says that. So you look like you're somebody in

537
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:48.839
<v Speaker 1>front of these people. I've done that quick testimony when

538
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:50.480
<v Speaker 1>I was a stand up comic and I was just

539
00:29:50.559 --> 00:29:52.599
<v Speaker 1>coming to Christ and I found a really good church.

540
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>It's called Thrive Church in Chesterfield, Virginia. Big shout out

541
00:29:56.240 --> 00:29:59.440
<v Speaker 1>to you guys. Pastor Kevin Bordeaux and Pastor Mark Thomas.

542
00:29:59.480 --> 00:30:01.319
<v Speaker 1>I love them to this day. There are my brother's

543
00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:04.519
<v Speaker 1>in Christ and they knew me. They knew me, and

544
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:06.319
<v Speaker 1>I was always the one that was like, hey, yeah,

545
00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:08.359
<v Speaker 1>I've got a couple shows this week. I can't wait

546
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:11.119
<v Speaker 1>to go do them. God is great, God is blessing me. Man.

547
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm going out on the road. I'm going out for

548
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:17.640
<v Speaker 1>two weeks. I'm heading to California. But I didn't realize

549
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm being separated from my family. I'm being thrown into

550
00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:24.119
<v Speaker 1>a different life, and that's not what God wants. See,

551
00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the devil wants to divide, corrupt, conquer, that's what he

552
00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:30.839
<v Speaker 1>was doing. But my brothers in Christ didn't want to

553
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:32.880
<v Speaker 1>say that to me. They would just give me the

554
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:38.400
<v Speaker 1>look like a big brother would like that's good. Okay,

555
00:30:39.880 --> 00:30:43.039
<v Speaker 1>Oh so you're now following the Lord. Oh okay, that's

556
00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 1>what the look looked like. But I was putting this

557
00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:49.759
<v Speaker 1>mask on, like, Hey, I'm this big time comedian coming

558
00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:55.359
<v Speaker 1>to your church. But I wasn't. Eventually, when I dropped

559
00:30:55.400 --> 00:30:58.319
<v Speaker 1>that ego in humility came through. It's the person I

560
00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:01.400
<v Speaker 1>am today, trying to chef the light of Jesus and

561
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:05.119
<v Speaker 1>really living on Romans eight one right there. But what

562
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:09.960
<v Speaker 1>does the Bible say about our God is a gape

563
00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:12.279
<v Speaker 1>love toward us. We shared this on a live on

564
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:16.440
<v Speaker 1>our TikTok as. We're doing something called the thirty Day

565
00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:20.839
<v Speaker 1>Spiritual boot Camp, and we were reading in one of

566
00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:24.200
<v Speaker 1>our boot camps. We were talking about how great God's

567
00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:28.200
<v Speaker 1>love is for us. See, we're worrying about the world.

568
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:31.000
<v Speaker 1>We're worrying about what mass to put on, what dress

569
00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>to put on, what outfit to put on, what career

570
00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>to put on? You know, how much money do we

571
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:41.440
<v Speaker 1>put in our bank account? We worry about that because

572
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.240
<v Speaker 1>we want the love of people. I'm a guy of affirmation.

573
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:48.519
<v Speaker 1>I like affirmation. I'm like when my wife says, hey,

574
00:31:49.000 --> 00:31:51.400
<v Speaker 1>you did a great job today, house looks great, Hey,

575
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.240
<v Speaker 1>dinner was good. Hey, you're being a really good leader.

576
00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:00.039
<v Speaker 1>I want to take that back for a bit. I

577
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:02.440
<v Speaker 1>was trying to get her affirmation on the things of

578
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:08.480
<v Speaker 1>this world. I was miserable. Now that she gives me affirmation, Hey,

579
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:11.799
<v Speaker 1>you're being a great spiritual leader in this home. You're

580
00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:15.079
<v Speaker 1>just a completely changed person. You're the husband that I

581
00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:19.880
<v Speaker 1>always wanted. That affirmation is also affirmation from the Lord

582
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:23.559
<v Speaker 1>being given to her to give to me through grace,

583
00:32:23.680 --> 00:32:26.480
<v Speaker 1>because he knows the relationship I have with my wife.

584
00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm an affirmation guy, right, So why don't we go

585
00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:34.079
<v Speaker 1>after the affirmation and the love of the Lord. Lamentations

586
00:32:34.200 --> 00:32:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Chapter three, verse twenty two through twenty three says this,

587
00:32:38.519 --> 00:32:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases. His mercies

588
00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:47.359
<v Speaker 1>never come to an end. They are new every morning.

589
00:32:48.119 --> 00:32:50.519
<v Speaker 1>Great is your faithfulness. We hear that in a lot

590
00:32:50.559 --> 00:32:54.000
<v Speaker 1>of Christian songs, let's read that again. Instead of chasing

591
00:32:54.079 --> 00:32:56.279
<v Speaker 1>the masks of this world and the love and the

592
00:32:56.920 --> 00:33:02.279
<v Speaker 1>affirmation of others social media, calling you out, going on

593
00:33:02.400 --> 00:33:05.240
<v Speaker 1>social media, trying to get those clicks, trying to do this,

594
00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Oh please watch me today, please do this. And then

595
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:10.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't do that to try to get millions of

596
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:13.359
<v Speaker 1>viewers or followers. I do it for the one that

597
00:33:13.519 --> 00:33:16.960
<v Speaker 1>needs to hear the Lord's word that moment. That's why

598
00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:20.519
<v Speaker 1>I do it. But you've got these other people battle me.

599
00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:23.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm better than you. I watch this one person on

600
00:33:23.319 --> 00:33:25.079
<v Speaker 1>TikTok the other day, and that's the great thing about

601
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:26.839
<v Speaker 1>this podcast. By the way, I'm all over the place.

602
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:29.759
<v Speaker 1>If this is your first time joining. I watched a

603
00:33:29.799 --> 00:33:32.440
<v Speaker 1>person the other day. I was supporting a friend, sent

604
00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:35.160
<v Speaker 1>them like a rose or something in their chat and

605
00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:38.559
<v Speaker 1>their live and then the other person comes on. They're like, oh,

606
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.440
<v Speaker 1>these are broke boys. You ain't gonna do that again. Uh,

607
00:33:41.799 --> 00:33:44.119
<v Speaker 1>why don't you send a galaxy? Why don't you send this,

608
00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:48.839
<v Speaker 1>Why don't you send that money? Prostitution? I said it,

609
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:54.720
<v Speaker 1>it's prostitution. You're selling yourselves. You're selling yourselves for the

610
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:56.599
<v Speaker 1>waves of the world, and you put on a mask,

611
00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:00.680
<v Speaker 1>and behind closed doors, you're probably miserable and you're hurting.

612
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Your bank account may be full, but your faith and

613
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:06.960
<v Speaker 1>your spirit is low. I would rather be rich in

614
00:34:07.119 --> 00:34:10.639
<v Speaker 1>favor in faith than have richness in life when it

615
00:34:10.719 --> 00:34:12.960
<v Speaker 1>comes to bank and money. Is it nice to pay

616
00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the bills? Absolutely? Is it nice to have a little

617
00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:18.480
<v Speaker 1>extra wonderful Thank you Jesus for that. And if he

618
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:20.840
<v Speaker 1>wants to give us more, he will give us more

619
00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:25.079
<v Speaker 1>if we can handle it. The crazy thing is, I'm

620
00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:29.559
<v Speaker 1>tired of seeing people on social media, especially TikTok. TikTok

621
00:34:29.760 --> 00:34:34.000
<v Speaker 1>right now is absolutely deplorable watching these battles and these

622
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:38.639
<v Speaker 1>young women who you could see that are they're better

623
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>than that. The light of Jesus is in them. The

624
00:34:41.119 --> 00:34:44.320
<v Speaker 1>light of Jesus is in you. But instead you want

625
00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:47.519
<v Speaker 1>affirmation from the people that are trying to watch you. Oh,

626
00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the top five, I got more million people

627
00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:53.639
<v Speaker 1>watching me now. Yeah, I'm the next Logan Paul, I'm

628
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:57.840
<v Speaker 1>the next so and so. But they're so broken faith.

629
00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:01.559
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I say in the chat, I said,

630
00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:07.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not broken faith. That's all that matters. Jesus will

631
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:15.079
<v Speaker 1>provide for me. Jehovah Jirah, you are enough. They didn't

632
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:18.159
<v Speaker 1>say anything when you say the name of Jesus. Wow.

633
00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Amazing Lamentations Chapter three, verse twenty two through twenty three

634
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:29.320
<v Speaker 1>go after the affirmation of God. The steadfast love of

635
00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:35.599
<v Speaker 1>the Lord never ceases. His mercies never end. They are

636
00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:38.639
<v Speaker 1>new every morning. You ever get a fight with your

637
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:41.239
<v Speaker 1>wife or your significant other friend and you go to

638
00:35:41.320 --> 00:35:44.760
<v Speaker 1>bed angry. In the next morning, they wake up, they're

639
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.559
<v Speaker 1>a different person at times, and you're like, whoa, how

640
00:35:46.679 --> 00:35:50.639
<v Speaker 1>that happened? The Lord does this every day for us.

641
00:35:50.760 --> 00:35:52.760
<v Speaker 1>We sin and fall short of the glory of God,

642
00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:55.239
<v Speaker 1>and He wakes up every morning going, I love you.

643
00:35:55.719 --> 00:36:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Come here, arms wide open, a gape love. They are

644
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.599
<v Speaker 1>new every morning, and great is your faithfulness? How fantastic

645
00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:11.119
<v Speaker 1>is that? That is just wonderful. And we've gone a

646
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:13.119
<v Speaker 1>little bit longer here today on the show, you get

647
00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>a little bonus episode because here next week on the show,

00:36:19.119 --> 00:36:21.800
<v Speaker 1>a break. We'll be back in the month of November

00:36:21.840 --> 00:36:25.400
<v Speaker 1>and we're going to start our thirty day spiritual boot

653
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:34.920

655
00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:41.079
<v Speaker 1>great book. Right now, if you want to get ahead

656
00:36:41.119 --> 00:36:43.480
<v Speaker 1>of the game, you can follow us on at podcaster

00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Katie on TikTok. We'll be doing videos over there and more.

658
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:49.239
<v Speaker 1>But I said we have something for you. Didn't I

659
00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:52.960
<v Speaker 1>had something for you? I'd something for our listeners. Right

660
00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:58.519
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're a non believer, maybe you're someone battling with faith.

661
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're on the verge too sure, maybe you're an

662
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:04.400
<v Speaker 1>atheist and you actually stuck around for thirty seven minutes

663
00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:07.159
<v Speaker 1>of this program. Well, right now, at the end of

664
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:09.039
<v Speaker 1>the show, we always like to give our listeners a

665
00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:11.639
<v Speaker 1>little something. And it's not from us here let's get

666
00:37:11.679 --> 00:37:16.880
<v Speaker 1>biblical with Katie, but it is from the Lord. Stop

667
00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:21.440
<v Speaker 1>with the masks, take these masks off, allow the light

668
00:37:21.559 --> 00:37:24.519
<v Speaker 1>of the Lord to shine from within you to the

669
00:37:24.599 --> 00:37:27.800
<v Speaker 1>rest of the world. He's waiting on you, he's calling you,

670
00:37:28.280 --> 00:37:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and this may be that moment right now. For those

671
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:33.760
<v Speaker 1>of you that may be watching on TikTok, for those

672
00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:36.559
<v Speaker 1>of you that may be listening on the podcast here

673
00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:39.239
<v Speaker 1>on the other end. If you have not turned your

674
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:43.239
<v Speaker 1>life over to Christ, this may be that calling right now.

675
00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:46.280
<v Speaker 1>We ask for you to go into a safe place.

676
00:37:46.440 --> 00:37:48.639
<v Speaker 1>If you're driving and listening to those please do not

677
00:37:48.800 --> 00:37:50.760
<v Speaker 1>go into prayer. We don't need you to close your

678
00:37:50.800 --> 00:37:53.000
<v Speaker 1>eyes and meet the Lord a little too soon, if

679
00:37:53.039 --> 00:37:55.159
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. We want you to just

680
00:37:55.239 --> 00:37:57.800
<v Speaker 1>go find some quiet space, because He says, come to

681
00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:00.480
<v Speaker 1>me in prayer, in quiet times, and he will himself

682
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:03.079
<v Speaker 1>to you. He will. He does it to me all

683
00:38:03.119 --> 00:38:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the time. Call me cuckoo, cuckoo for Christ. That's what

684
00:38:07.880 --> 00:38:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I'll say instead of cocoa puffs. But at this moment,

685
00:38:10.880 --> 00:38:13.360
<v Speaker 1>I want to pray with you. You just say these words.

686
00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:17.119
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing crazy about it, there's nothing magical about it.

687
00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:21.920
<v Speaker 1>But just close your eyes for a moment, take a

688
00:38:22.000 --> 00:38:27.760
<v Speaker 1>deep breath, open up your hands, don't worry nothing. It's

689
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:33.679
<v Speaker 1>crazy as gonna happen, But maybe it will. I know

690
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it will, because Christ is calling for you right now.

691
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:44.119
<v Speaker 1>Just repeat after me, Dear God, I'm a sinner. I

692
00:38:44.239 --> 00:38:46.559
<v Speaker 1>sin daily, and I fall short of the glory of God.

693
00:38:48.559 --> 00:38:53.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired of being a sinner. I'm tired of leading

694
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:58.960
<v Speaker 1>a life that the world wants me to lead. Dear Lord,

695
00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:04.440
<v Speaker 1>wash me of my ends. I believe you were born,

696
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:10.519
<v Speaker 1>you had died, and you raised again on the third

697
00:39:10.639 --> 00:39:16.719
<v Speaker 1>day for your victory and mine. Dear Lord, allow me

698
00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:20.239
<v Speaker 1>to turn over my life to you and follow you

699
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:24.679
<v Speaker 1>until the end of my days. Make my crooked path straight.

700
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Dear Lord, wash me clean, make me born again. Thank

701
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:38.239
<v Speaker 1>you Jesus, I love you, and amen for those of

702
00:39:38.280 --> 00:39:42.119
<v Speaker 1>you that repeated that prayer. Welcome You're a part of

703
00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:46.559
<v Speaker 1>the family. Now congratulations. Where do you start, well, I

704
00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:48.639
<v Speaker 1>always like to say to the Book of Proverbs. It's

705
00:39:48.840 --> 00:39:51.559
<v Speaker 1>pretty easy place to start with the Bible. Just think

706
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:54.719
<v Speaker 1>of them as little fortune cookies without the winning lottery numbers.

707
00:39:56.199 --> 00:39:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Read that every day there's thirty one chapters for third

708
00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:05.199
<v Speaker 1>one or thirty days, usually in a month. Read the books,

709
00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:10.159
<v Speaker 1>the Synoptic Gospels. They call them of Matthew, Mark, Luke,

710
00:40:10.199 --> 00:40:12.719
<v Speaker 1>and John. These are the guys that knew Jesus, that

711
00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:18.480
<v Speaker 1>walked with Jesus, the ones that really studied Jesus. Go

712
00:40:18.599 --> 00:40:20.599
<v Speaker 1>ahead and move into the Book of Acts and see

713
00:40:20.599 --> 00:40:23.440
<v Speaker 1>how the Word is continuing to move today in this world.

714
00:40:23.639 --> 00:40:28.440
<v Speaker 1>For Jesus. Learn about our brother. Paul wrote over a

715
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:34.280
<v Speaker 1>third of the New Testament. Read through revelation and realize

716
00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:37.119
<v Speaker 1>that he's returning. We used to tell you, don't read it.

717
00:40:37.280 --> 00:40:42.320
<v Speaker 1>It's a little scary at first, but pray daily over

718
00:40:42.440 --> 00:40:46.679
<v Speaker 1>your readings, come to him in quiet times, and your

719
00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:52.719
<v Speaker 1>relationship will be built relationship, not a religion. Something we'd

720
00:40:52.719 --> 00:40:54.639
<v Speaker 1>be leaeve in here on the show. Thank you guys

<v Speaker 1>things for the Lord. We will have all that here on.

729
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:22.480

<v Speaker 1>the light of the Lord, and we are blessed to
