Looking Back: Grateful for 2025 || Victory Church

Hello, Victory family. It is so good to have everyone together online across all of our campuses today. And if you're new to Victory, we would love for you to stop by connecttovictory.com and choose new here for a gift that we'd like to send you. For our Victory family, you can also visit Connect to Victory to give and participate in Christmas gift to the world and see all the events that are kicking off in this new year, like 21 days of prayer and fasting and new Discover Victory sessions, both beginning on January 4th. Next weekend is also the weekend we'll all be back in the building at each one of our campuses. Speaking of which, we have all the campus pastors here today to talk a bit about this past year. Let's listen in. Let's do this. Whoa. Oh, man. A little slidey slidey here. All right, hey, everybody. We are all here. Yes, it is at the end of the year and we've been having conversations like, hey, should we do another sermon?

Like, and, you know, honestly, since we weren't having services on site this weekend, we just kind of got together and said, hey, let's just have a conversation. Let's just talk. I mean, the truth is I think we all have this tendency, but especially here at Victory, everything's so big, everything's moving so fast that we often don't slow down and we talk about what God has done. And Colossians 4, two is one of my favorite scriptures. It says, devote yourselves to prayer, be watchful and thankful. And I think many times we just kind of pray and we keep moving. And we never really slow down to look, to watch what God has done and then to thank him for what he's done. And the truth is here at the end of the years, we kind of turn around and we look back, God has done a whole lot, like a whole lot. We were just looking at it together. This year, we've had over 3,000 new members here at Victory, which is crazy. I mean, that's new members. That's not like the whole church. That's just new people inside the church. We've baptized over 1,600 people here this year. Mid-year, at the end of June, we had given somewhere around $113 million

into missions, lifetime, 113. Now at the end of the year, $117 million that we have given to missions over the life of the church, which is incredible. I mean, that's wild. That's an insane amount of money that we were able to give to continue growing the kingdom here and ultimately around the world. And hundreds of thousands of dollars coming in for Christmas gift to the world. I mean, just so many amazing things that we are all so thankful for. So we just got together and we said, hey, let's talk about it. Let's talk about some of the things, the wins, the losses, the frustrations that have happened this year. And so I would love to do that. Let's start with you, Mo. What is your kind of like highlight? You know, if you just kind of look back at this year, what's in your year in review, and you just say, there's a big exclamation point. What's your highlight of the year? Well, I think we were talking about it a minute ago and how there are so many highlights that we can actually choose from. But I would have to say the one that stood out to me was a first in my pastoral history. And it was having an opportunity to minister to preach with my dad, Andrew Senior.

It was Senior. So for those who don't know, I do have a first name. It's Andrew. Everybody calls me Mo. But yeah, I had the opportunity to minister with him. And for me, it was so special because when we were talking about family and we were doing all these things, we talked about the models that we had. And I was able to talk about how I had that model as a child of a man that would pray, that would lead our family. And then to be able to dissect that and talk about that a little bit was just amazing. And even having conversations with other congregants saying, you don't probably realize how much that impacted so many because one, a lot of people don't have that model. But then the other thing to see both of us up there at the same time, seeing a generational passing down of the scriptures and of the gospel was amazing. And then we got a chance to do a fatherly kind of double blessing over the congregation. And it was amazing. A lot of people were sitting there crying and choked up and all the things. So lots of times, like when I've had my dad up, people will come up to me afterwards and will be like, oh, now I get it. Like, I just saw you and your dad.

And I heard the same thing about you. Yeah, absolutely. That I was like, people were like, oh, now I know why Mo is Mo because I saw senior. Yeah, and I think you can, if you're not careful, think that this thing just happens. Obviously, God can do amazing things in one generation. A lot of people in our church, I think we've found this, they are first generation Christians. But to have that compound effect, it actually adds line upon line and precept upon precept. And I'm a product of a praying father, praying mother, but having the opportunity to do that was absolutely a thing I won't forget. That's awesome. Yeah, and I would just say, I'll be curious. As we were talking about it, Kervin, what would you say? as a highlight for you as you kind of went through this year? Man, we do so many different things at Victory. It's like hard to like kind of pinpoint one. But I got to be honest, the marriage weekend, the wedding weekend. Oh, yeah. That's right. And I think for me, it was so special because leading up to it, you know what I mean, in the offices, and there was kind of this underlying question. Is this going to work?

That's right. A 16 wedding? We're crazy, yeah. Like, this is either going to be amazing, or it's going to be a flop. And y'all, I mean, the people showed up, man. It was just tangible in the room, the excitement, the anticipation, and the connection. I think for me, the things that stood out was the multi-generational window. I mean, I think one of the youngest couples were like early 30s. The oldest was 72. And so I think for me, we all saw this moment across every campus, but we don't oftentimes get to hear the stories underneath. You know, one of the couples, from what I understood, they tried to get married before. But the kids were just so anti-the relationship, so they shut it down. They split up. But over time, God did His thing, and this was the time they came back together, and all the kids were here and celebrating. And then I just had lunch, literally just yesterday, with one of the couples that got married, and just chatting with them, and just hearing, like, this is a real couple with a real story. Like, this wasn't just a thing we did. They're still married.

They're still married. That's literally what I said. I was like, are y'all good? Just want to check. Just want to make sure. But these are real couples, real lives, real stories. And I think the one that took the cake for me, whenever I was up in the lobby after one of those between services, this young adult, this young guy. I mean, he was maybe 23 years old. And you said this would happen, like, leading up. But he came up, and he just basically shared with me, dude, I've never been to a wedding. He didn't have a dad in his life. I've never seen a wedding. So it was just cool to be able to model out for our people, what it looks like to be in covenant, to do God's way. It was a really, really powerful weekend. How about you, Chris? Man, that was a special weekend. And I've never changed clothes so fast in all my life. That's right. Having to throw on the suit. Absolutely. Big time. Superman moment. Absolutely. Very much so. Very much so. That was a powerful weekend.

I'll never forget that weekend. If I look back over the whole year, and I know I speak, because we talk about this a lot, what God has done in the area of worship in our campuses has been something special. And I think, personally, it started in the fast. There was something special about that 21 days of prayer and fasting back January, so long ago. And I love, and I brag on Victory House worship, that a lot of our songs are Jesus-centered, Jesus-focused, Jesus-driven. And it's been awesome to watch that. That's been a highlight for me, personally, at the Mill, and seeing what God's doing. There's a hunger at the Mill, and there's a hunger at all our campuses. And it's coming from prayer. It started, I think it was launched, at 21 days of prayer and fasting. And then of all of our prayer meetings that we have, all our prayer gatherings, it just ignited that, and the hunger in the people have responded to it. That's been incredible to watch. For me, personally, though, Kervin, and guys, to have my wife up there with me, and to do it together. Yeah, yeah. That was it. Amazing time. It was an amazing time, during the Family Series,

which we've had so many people tell us that was a series for them that just rocked their world. Okay, so I don't get in trouble. I loved preaching with Summer even more. And I loved preaching with Kendra even more. No! You and you. Y'all better say that. It's the truth. Yeah, it is, it is. But it was powerful, it was awesome to be together. And then we even had one where our kids were on it. Like our family, that was really special. So yeah, very, very special. Can I say something real quick about the worship piece? One thing I do appreciate, amongst all the things about Victory House Worship, is the songs are so transferable. I think we would all say this. I have the privilege, well, I almost have the youngest. You have the youngest, James. But even the songs are so relatable that our son Maximus can sing these songs, pick them up, and he's worshiping with them. And so I think as we talk about family, as we talk about generational blessing, we're in a house that believes in making sure that from the youngest to the most senior, we're able to really engage in the things of the Lord. Yeah, that's good.

Speaking of the youngest. Come on, man, come on. What's the highlight? Hey, youngest in age too, come on. All right. We're the youngest kids, come on now. Man, just like you guys, this past year has been incredible. There's been a lot of good things that has taken place at Victory, especially at North Cobb as well. But the highlight for myself and North Cobb, I think, to see and witness one of the healthiest transitions that I've ever seen, I've been in church a long time, but just to be able to walk through that with all of you guys and with Pastor Darius, Pastor Melba, and be able to send them off in a healthy way, and then for us to step. in a very healthy way. It's been- Well, I think, I mean, we just have to highlight it again. North Cobb is the first campus to plant a church out of that campus. That's incredible. Yeah, yep. That's amazing. It's exciting. It's the first thing not to come out of Norcross itself, but actually to come. I mean, we can celebrate that. Oh yeah.

We can celebrate that all day long. Yeah, we celebrate. It's a kingdom. You know, you say it all the time. We're open-handed. It's a kingdom thing. And that's what's on top of our heart and our mind every single Sunday that we show up. It's like, man, you know, we're doing something great. God is doing something. But it feels like it's been a short time, long time. I'm not sure, but it's been 18 weeks since it's happening. So here we are, you know, and God is just moving. So we're excited for what's taking place. But, you know, that's kind of where we're at. And just, I know there's a lot more throughout the year that we've seen, but that's probably our highlight, especially for my wife and I as we step into this new season. So, but through all the year, we've preached a lot. You know, we started the year with the Heaven Series. We dove into Proverbs. Then we talked about, we're in the Family Series that we just talked about. So through it all, Pastor Kermit, like what has stuck out to you the most or lingered in your heart? Yeah, yeah, I think for me, man, one of the things I love about this house

is the intentionality that's put into the Sermon Series. You know, I mean, going through an entire book of the Bible, revelation at that, you know. Who does that, right? And so I think for me, if I can just personally, I think for me, what has been really impactful, back in June, I preached in the Focus Series on wisdom, I'm sorry, on the book of Proverbs, and I preached a message on pride. And a few of you guys preached it as well. And in that season, my wife and I had just gone through this crazy situation, our family with an adoption that fell through last minute. So that was a message preaching, where I was living that thing out, like having to humble myself to what I wanted and what we thought God was doing. And it was, you know, so preaching what you're walking through. But then fast forward, I preached about a month, about a month and a half ago, a message on hope, you know, kicking off Advent. And in that message, I was able to share the story. Then right after the adoption fell through, we found out Candace was pregnant. So it was crazy, man. And I mean, you talk about hope rising in the room, man. And so I think for me, this year has been crazy because all of these different series that we've been in, messages that we've preached,

whether I preached it or heard you preach it, or tuned into one of you guys, I feel like this year, man, I've been personally like living this thing, like living through it. You know, it's been more than just messages taught, but actually a walk that's being walked in real time. And it's been cool, at least again, for me to share that part of our journey with our people. Man, it just does something different whenever people can say, oh, you're walking through this. So people just connect with that. And I think for me, just the stories I've heard from people in the lobby and all, that's been encouraging to know that God will use my, what feels like a mess, you know, and turn it into a message to bring hope to others. That's been cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What about you? My goodness, the family series for me was the icing on the cake. And I think the message that I was honored to preach was the one about raising counterculture kids. And Lisa and I, that has been our goal from when our kids were little. And by God's grace, we've done that. I say that humbly before the Lord, but I wanna see our parents, and not just our parents at the mill, but the parents at our Victory Church campuses

really grow in that. Kingdom kids, counterculture kids, kids that are chasing after Jesus hard and making a difference wherever they're at. So that for me was a huge one personally. There's several messages I've heard from different one of you guys, excuse me, of course, Pastor Johnson, that have all been impacting. I was just thinking about it. I had a man tell me recently in our small group, he said, dude, I got through the focus group, and I was like, okay, God, I'm good. And he said, then you had to take us into the family series. And he said, it messed us up. And I think people have been, if I can use this language, people have been messed up in a good way. The word has messed them up in a good way, and they've been changed, they've been rocked. That's so good. And actually, I mean, again, I mean, man, I mean, we're following your lead as you're hearing from the Lord, you and Pastor Summer. So what about you? What has been really resonating in your heart as you look back over this past year? Yeah, a lot of sermons, a lot of series. You know, one of the ones that's kind of like one of my core DNA pieces is the sonship sermon that we did.

Just that idea of if being a son of God is not enough, nothing will ever be enough. And for me, that was so pivotal in my life to just calm me down, calm my striving, that I don't work for approval, I work from approval. But honestly, honestly. So I think that's probably like the sermon that I kind of preach to myself. But if I think of like, what was the most impactful sermon or moment for me this year as I look back at our messages, is honestly in the Heaven series. And when I interviewed my dad. Every time. And it was like a snowy day or something like that. So I think we were all online that weekend and it just kind of worked out. I could not have done that life four times, right? So I think we sat down and we recorded it. And I mean, how many people actually get the privilege of having one, a father who loves the Lord, a father who's in ministry for a really long time, and a father who is not afraid of death. And then to be able to look him in the eyes and be like, dad, how are you thinking about heaven right now, you're 80 years old, how are you thinking about heaven? And I think personally, that's just, I have that recording as a gift and I'll have it for the rest of my life.

And I just, that's a million dollars to me. That's irreplaceable to me, just being able to have that. So that one meant a lot to me just for posterity, just I get to have that forever. You had all of us crying. Everybody, all of me crying, the whole church was crying. That was golden for everybody. Oh man, oh gosh. Well, a lot of wins this year, a lot of fantastic things, a lot of people getting born again, a lot of baptisms, a lot of new members, I mean, a lot of momentum. But we all know this. I think Proverbs would say something like, without an oxen, the stall is clean, but with an oxen, you got some stuff to, some mess to clean up. And so with all the good, with all the ministry we do, it's not always good. So there's lets downs, there's challenges, there's disappointments. One of the phrases we say a lot in ministry is you need to have the heart of a child, but the height of a rhino. Mm. Mm. I'm just saying, what does that mean for those who haven't heard it? Oh man, so if you're not careful, ministry can be death by a thousand cuts. Like people stab you in the back, they say bad things,

disappointments, you sew your life into somebody for a decade, then they leave the church and gossip about you, you know? And so it's a challenge to stay really tough. Like you can't let everything take you out, but stay really soft towards the Lord and towards people. I always pray, God, let me love you the way that you deserve and I also want to love the people the way that you love them. And so how do we stay kind of tough on the outside, but still stay soft on the inside? And I think that's always our challenge, you know, as everybody, but especially as pastors, doing what we do. And so, you know, James, I know, you know, we just highlighted, we just celebrated. You're launching a church out, Darius and Melba are going out. That's beautiful, but there's also some challenge. So I mean, what would you say is like a challenge that you're going through or have gone through this year? Yeah, I mean, the great thing about this question is I have the same answer from the first question that y'all asked me. It's a transition, we highlighted the transition and our biggest challenge right now is the transition. And I'll tell you why, because like you just said it, our flesh tends to get in the way and the way I can express that is we are open-handed, we are kingdom-minded, so our spirit is ripe

and we're gonna have leaders transition out. But like you just said, there's people that we've invested in and there's people that we wanna hold on to and that's where our flesh gets in the way. And so it's a weekly thing that we have to come before God and just say, God, these are your people, this is your church and we have to be okay with leaders transitioning out. And on top of that, when leaders transition out, there's holes to fill. And so our biggest challenge right now is raising up leaders, having the I see new conversations and just equipping people to follow in the giftings that God has given them so that they can step up and lead. And so that's where we're at right now, but it's a fun thing, it's a fun challenge. And definitely exciting times as we are still in this season of transition as we step into January and we see the church launch, 818 launch and as we continue to build Victory North Cobb, like it's a challenge, but it's fun. I love challenges, it's fun. But honestly, I think like what I've seen so many times, especially in a big church is people walk in and they're like, oh, it's great, they don't need me. Like I can just come in and sit, they don't need my help. And I think that does two things. It robs the church of the beauty of them stepping in.

Obviously we got leaders transitioning, there's always stuff going on, but it also robs them. Really, that's what people would understand. It robs them of the glory of God, of seeing the gifts of God be put to use in their lives. and being willing to take a step out of the boat. I mean, every single one of us has that story in our life. If somebody stepped in, they called it out, and then we answered that call, we got out of the boat, and then we saw the gifts that God put, we call it emancipating greatness around here, but the gifts that God put inside us, and then the good that that does in other people. And I mean, again, it's the beauty, it's the thing to celebrate, but it's also the challenge. Oh yeah, I'm grateful that you just said that, because as the North Cobb family is watching, pastor just spoke, come on, step in, step in to serve. Come on, everybody, every campus, come on. They are there right now. That's right, that's right. But yeah, so I wanna pass this off to Hamilton Mill, like what is y'all's challenges this year, man? Well, space, space, and space. Come on, yeah, that's right. Yeah, yes, but I'll go back for a second, because most important is family, right? So we're in a new challenging season of being empty nesters. So 24 years of raising kids, our daughter just got married in the last year,

can't believe how fast time flies. And so that's been a huge challenge for Lisa and I, but it's been a good challenge. It's been a good growing season. I feel like I'm dating Lisa all over again, so that's been a lot of fun. Come on, yes, yes. Come on. But, but, okay, moving on, moving on. I don't know if they got the wave. Do it again, do it again, do it again. Moving on. So Hamilton Mill, like all of our campuses, has been growing, and we have limited space. We don't have any official overflow space, so we make do, and we make do well. Let me say this, let me say this, so for everybody watching. So when we pastored Hamilton Mill, Summer and I, so for 10 years, 2010 to 2020. Now, granted, we were three services, but on strong weekends, 2,000 people. Maybe 2,050, like that's, and that's a ton of people. I mean, that by itself is a megachurch. 2,000 is a megachurch. Adding that four service, there have been a number of weekends that you guys have been over 2,600 people. Like 600, like that's crazy. That's a lot of people. And so around here, we call them good problems.

So don't be afraid to use that word. Like that is, there's a lot of churches who pray for the types of problems that Victory has, but especially Victory Hamilton Mill. But we say there's two words to that, good and problems. Like they are problems. Absolutely, well, you have texted me before. Chris, where did you put all the people? And I mean, we use everything to get people. People on the roof. Everywhere, everywhere, it's awesome. And God's grace in this season, I feel like we will be very soon to be able to plant a campus out of Victory Hamilton Mill for the glory of God in that area. We need another Victory campus up there. So we're on the cuff of that. We're praying all that into, leadership, all that. We're talking and praying. And we're making, if I can use it, we're making do. And we're still begging people to move out of the 11th. We're still. I'm talking to that camera. We're still asking people to move out of the 11th, please. To make room, to make room. Thank God for Saturday night service. I love Saturday night service. But it is a season we're in and it is a challenge, but it's a good problem. And God is advancing his kingdom

and it's fun to be a part of it. So here's the crazy thing, and I could go there, but I wanna hear from you, Mo. In all the challenges, there's also great stories. And there's beautiful testimonies. Do you have one of all the many? Yeah, definitely have one of all the many. And I'll start off by just even kind of alley-ooping off of what you just talked about, as far as the good problems of even space and people. First of all, it's good that we can even talk about the fact that we need more space. That means people are coming to Jesus, people are coming. And we see the same thing at Midtown, where we're in two and three and four overflows of services and asking people to come to that five o'clock. So please come to the five o'clock service instead of the 11, if you can, also. But really, from a testimony standpoint, one of the greatest things that I appreciate about pastoring is not standing on a platform preaching. It's not getting a microphone. It's not moving the people, as they would say. It's something you said earlier, Kervin, when we know that what's being preached is actually being lived. And then for me to be able to preach it and then see the results of the people walking it out. So for me, the testimony has been specifically one that comes to mind is a couple who we,

my wife Kendra and I, we've walked with for a couple years now. They went through a transition of things, of instability in a relationship, to almost being on the fritz, to needing counseling from us, just navigating through life. But as we were going through the family series, had opportunities to start talking to them. And now we've literally seen this particular couple walk and navigate through being almost on opposite sides of a spectrum, to coming together, to now reconciling, to now, just a few days ago. getting engaged, and, man, being able to see them now getting ready to take the step. And what's important about that is that the gentleman out of this couple, he's literally just navigated in transition. I see this person now, he's been baptized. Now he's serving in production, serving in children's, and just seeing now a family unit that at one time were at odds, now are coming together because of the gospel, the transforming power of the gospel. And then even not just them, I saw other couples, and y'all see this too, people who, as we were talking about how to live in a godly relationship, at one time were living together, and now having a testimony of saying, hey, we want to do things God's way. We want to make sure that if we're going to be living together, we're going to do it under covenant.

And just recently, Kendra and I were able to do several weddings as all of us did, but we were able to do a wedding recently of a couple who leaned into the word of God, who said we want to get things in order, who came under mentorship and discipleship, and now took that step, and now are married, going into this new year. And so for me, the testimony is seeing that people shift, because we know, the Bible says it in Revelation 12, that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of a testimony. And I said this a couple of months ago when I preached right here at North Cross. I said, our testimony is your receipt that God is real. Our testimony is the receipt that God is real. And so I don't want us to ever forget, I know we talk about this, let's not forget that when we see God move, we need to talk about it. We need to share about it, because other people won't always know what's going on if you don't actually share that. At one time, I was lost, but now I'm found. I got receipts, baby. Yeah, I got receipts. I got receipts. How you do it? I got receipts. Well, I think, let's just say this. We can't say this enough. Yeah, I think the testimony right there is that godly men are attractive. Well, come on now, godly men are attractive. Can we talk to men on the other side?

Listen, godly men are attractive. This is how godly men end up marrying way up, way up, way out of their league. That's right. Yeah, absolutely. And I think all of us are taking time to make sure we're pouring into the congregation. And what I pray for all of our congregations is that what they see is what they get, and that they are able to follow the model as we follow Christ, that they follow us as we navigate through that. So it's a great thing. And as we kind of end this time, Pastor Johnson, I want to put you on the spot for a minute, kind of like just bring something out. We're getting ready to transition into a new year. Would you, could you maybe share a little bit about what God is speaking to you as we enter into 2026? I don't want to let too much out of the bag. Let me crack the door. Let me crack the door just a little bit. I think next year is, I'm going to call it a few things just right now, next year is a year of leadership development, ministry development inside people that they don't even know it yet. Some of you don't even know it yet, but you're about to step into a new level of calling and a new level of equipping you didn't even know yet. God's stirring that. God's forming the strategy for that right now. You know, we talked about campus, church, church, A18 about to

launch out. Don't be surprised if there's another church going to plant next year. Don't be surprised if there's another campus next year. I can neither confirm or deny these things, but I will say and we'll jump into this next year, but I've heard this said like this phrase is ringing in my mind. Is that 2026 is the year that we rob hell? So let's do it. Victory. That means a lot of things. And again, that's just a teaser just just received as a teaser of there is a lot of vision and can I say like this? There's a lot of pent-up vision that is actually going to be able to start hitting the ground in 2026. We spent the last few years, honestly, five-ish years kind of building a foundation for things kind of getting some things in a row and this next year. We're actually going to start seeing that go to another level and spilling out. And so I do believe some of the prayers you've been praying for for the people that you love your loved ones, your friends, your family, co-workers neighbors. I believe that we're going to see some of those answered. And so I would love this is we're just kind of here. Let's commit that to the Lord. Yeah, I would love to pray for you guys as we finish out a year and as we look with faith and expectation into the next year. Let's pray. God, I thank you for these men that are up here on the platform

with me. I thank you for their families. I thank you for their callings. Thank you for the leadership gifts that you placed inside their life and the blessing that they are to victory and beyond and right now we pray for. Victory, we pray for the congregation, we pray for the friends and the family that make up the body of Christ here inside this house. Thank you for your faithfulness for 35, almost 36 years here in the life of Victory. Thank you for your faithfulness, God, in this year of 2025. And as we close this year, we do, we thank you for the series, we thank you for all the new people that you're adding to this house, God, for the water baptisms, and every single one of those 1,600 people, like, that's a story. So we thank you for the stories, we thank you for the life transformation. And as we look ahead to next year, God, I even pray right now that faith would begin rising up inside this family, a faith for greater things, faith for new levels of calling, faith for new levels of purpose and provision, new levels of believing that you are who you say that you are and you can do everything

that you said that you can do. And we do believe, God, that this is the year that we're gonna see hell robbed. We're gonna see the kingdom come. We're gonna see the reach of heaven grow, not only through quote-unquote victory, but through this family. God, I believe the level of fulfillment, the level of intimacy with Jesus, the level of revelation from the Holy Spirit, and the level of just spiritual impact that this family is gonna have, God, we've never seen it before, what we're about to see into this next year. So God, as we look into 2026, and as we close out 2025, God, we pray your deepest, richest blessing upon this family. Yes, Lord, come on. God, I pray that you would open up the windows of heaven and pour out upon them a blessing that they can't even contain. God, draw their heart away from sin, woo them away from sin, closer to your heart. And God, we pray a blessing upon their family and upon their family's family, that the Lord would bless you and keep you, make his face shine upon you, be gracious to you, lift up his countenance on you, and give you shalom,

peace in the deepest place of who you are, that you would know that you are God's favorite one. You're his kid. May you rest in that. May you close this year with that knowledge that you're a child of God. As you boldly run into a new year, in Jesus' name, we bless you, family. And everybody said. Amen. Amen, amen. God bless you guys. Amen. We're gonna be praying in prayer and fasting, and there is no better way to start the new year. Have a great week, a happy new year, and we'll see you soon.
