  I'm
• 0:37
  going
• 0:37
  to
• 0:37
  say
• 0:38
  something
• 0:38
  hard
• 0:38
  today.
• 0:38
  I
• 0:38
  don't
• 0:39
  know
• 0:39
  how
• 0:39
  else
• 0:39
  to
• 0:39
  say
• 0:39
  it.
• 0:40
  Bearing
• 0:41
  your
• 0:41
  God
• 0:41
  given
• 0:41
  gifts
• 0:42
  is
• 0:42
  a
• 0:42
  sin.
• 0:43
  Yes,
• 0:44
  Ralph's
• 0:44
  calling
• 0:44
  sin
• 0:45
  a
• 0:45
  sin
• 0:46
  because
• 0:46
  you've
• 0:46
  got
• 0:47
  skills,
• 0:47
  you've
• 0:48
  got
• 0:48
  passions,
• 0:49
  you've
• 0:49
  got
• 0:50
  talents
• 0:50
  that
• 0:50
  come
• 0:50
  naturally.
• 0:52
  But
• 0:52
  here's
• 0:52
  the
• 0:52
  sin
• 0:53
  part.
• 0:54
  If
• 0:54
  you
• 0:54
  keep
• 0:54
  them
• 0:54
  hidden,
• 0:56
  nobody
• 0:56
  is
• 0:56
  blessed.
• 0:58
  And
• 0:58
  the
• 0:59
  worst
• 0:59
  part,
• 0:59
  this
• 0:59
  is
• 1:00
  the
• 1:00
  part
• 1:00
  I
• 1:00
  really
• 1:00
  want
• 1:00
  you
• 1:00
  to
• 1:01
  hear
• 1:01
  right
• 1:01
  now.
• 1:03
  If
• 1:03
  you
• 1:03
  don't
• 1:04
  use
• 1:04
  the
• 1:04
  talents
• 1:05
  that
• 1:05
  God
• 1:05
  has
• 1:05
  given
• 1:06
  you,
• 1:07
  in
• 1:07
  my
• 1:07
  humble
• 1:08
  opinion,
• 1:08
  you're
• 1:08
  telling
• 1:08
  God
• 1:09
  his
• 1:09
  gift
• 1:10
  wasn't
• 1:10
  worth
• 1:10
  using
• 1:11
  as
• 1:11
  he
• 1:12
  Culture
• 1:12
  tells
• 1:12
  us
• 1:12
  a
• 1:13
  lie.
• 1:13
  Culture
• 1:14
  tells
• 1:14
  us
• 1:14
  to
• 1:14
  be
• 1:14
  grateful
• 1:15
  for
• 1:15
  your
• 1:15
  job,
• 1:16
  but
• 1:16
  keep
• 1:16
  those
• 1:16
  hobbies
• 1:17
  on
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  side.
• 1:17
  Play
• 1:18
  it
• 1:18
  safe.
• 1:20
  Let
• 1:20
  me
• 1:20
  just
• 1:20
  tell
• 1:20
  you
• 1:20
  something
• 1:21
  right
• 1:21
  now.
• 1:21
  Jesus
• 1:22
  was
• 1:22
  not
• 1:22
  a
• 1:22
  safe
• 1:23
  player.
• 1:23
  He
• 1:23
  never
• 1:23
  called
• 1:24
  us
• 1:24
  to
• 1:24
  bury
• 1:24
  our
• 1:25
  talents
• 1:25
  under
• 1:26
  a
• 1:26
  bushel
• 1:26
  basket.
• 1:27
  He
• 1:28
  called
• 1:28
  us
• 1:28
  to
• 1:28
  use
• 1:28
  them
• 1:29
  and
• 1:29
  he
• 1:29
  called
• 1:29
  us
• 1:30
  to
• 1:30
  multiply
• 1:30
  him.
• 1:31
  And
• 1:32
  here's
• 1:32
  the
• 1:32
  truth
• 1:32
  most
• 1:33
  people
• 1:33
  don't
• 1:33
  want
• 1:33
  to
• 1:34
  say
• 1:34
  out
• 1:34
  loud.
• 1:35
  Playing
• 1:36
  it
• 1:36
  safe
• 1:36
  with
• 1:36
  your
• 1:37
  gifts
• 1:37
  isn't
• 1:37
  humility.
• 1:38
  A
• 1:38
  lot
• 1:38
  of
• 1:38
  people
• 1:38
  think,
• 1:39
  oh,
• 1:39
  I'm
• 1:39
  just
• 1:39
  being
• 1:39
  humble,
• 1:40
  Ralph.
• 1:41
  Guess
• 1:41
  what?
• 1:41
  It's
• 1:41
  not.
• 1:42
  It's
• 1:42
  actually
• 1:42
  disobedience.
• 1:43
  So
• 1:44
  stick
• 1:44
  with
• 1:44
  me

  we're

• 1:46
  lie
• 1:46
  that
• 1:47
  your
• 1:47
  talents
• 1:47
  aren't
• 1:48
  valuable
• 1:48
  enough
• 1:48
  to
• 1:49
  earn.

  those
• 1:51
  into
• 1:52
  something
• 1:52
  that
• 1:52
  God
• 1:53
  intended
• 1:53
  for
• 1:53
  you.
• 1:53
  And

• 3:02
  Listen,

  Maybe

  organized.
• 3:09
  You

  to

  people

  you

  have
• 3:11
  the

  heart
• 3:12
  of

  me,

  And

  you've

  had
• 3:17
  friends
• 3:17
  say
• 3:17
  this
• 3:17
  to
• 3:17
  you,
• 3:18
  say,
• 3:18
  ralph,
• 3:18
  you
• 3:18
  know
• 3:18
  what?
• 3:18
  You're
• 3:19
  so
• 3:19
  good
• 3:19
  at
• 3:19
  this,
• 3:20
  but
• 3:21
  are
• 3:21
  you
• 3:21
  making
• 3:21
  money
• 3:22
  from
• 3:22
  it?
• 3:23
  And
• 3:24
  as
• 3:24
  you
• 3:24
  think
• 3:24
  about
• 3:24
  that,
• 3:24
  you're
• 3:24
  like,
• 3:25
  oh,
• 3:25
  that
• 3:25
  seems
• 3:25
  so
• 3:25
  out
• 3:25
  of
• 3:26
  reach,
• 3:26
  Ralph.
• 3:28
  And
• 3:28
  those
• 3:28
  fear,
• 3:29
  those
• 3:29
  thoughts,
• 3:29
  those
• 3:30
  negative
• 3:30
  thoughts
• 3:31
  creep
• 3:31
  into
• 3:31
  your
• 3:31
  head.
• 3:33
  You
• 3:33
  start
• 3:33
  to
• 3:33
  think
• 3:33
  to
• 3:34
  yourself,
• 3:34
  hey,
• 3:34
  nobody
• 3:34
  would
• 3:35
  pay
• 3:35
  me
• 3:35
  for
• 3:35
  this.
• 3:36
  I'm
• 3:36
  a
• 3:37
  good
• 3:37
  cook,
• 3:37
  but
• 3:37
  man,
• 3:37
  nobody's
• 3:38
  gonna
• 3:38
  pay
• 3:38
  me
• 3:38
  for
• 3:38
  that.
• 3:39
  I'm
• 3:39
  a
• 3:39
  good
• 3:39
  writer,
• 3:39
  but
• 3:40
  who's
• 3:40
  gonna
• 3:40
  pay
• 3:40
  me
• 3:40
  for
• 3:40
  that?
• 3:42
  Yes,
• 3:42
  I
• 3:42
  can
• 3:42
  teach
• 3:42
  people,
• 3:43
  but
• 3:43
  how
• 3:43
  to
• 3:43
  make
• 3:44
  money
• 3:44
  doing
• 3:44
  that,
• 3:44
  Ralph,
• 3:45
  I'm
• 3:45
  not
• 3:45
  skilled
• 3:46
  enough.
• 3:46
  The
• 3:47
  culture
• 3:47
  tells
• 3:47
  me
• 3:48
  that's
• 3:48
  too
• 3:48
  risky.
• 3:50
  So
• 3:50
  what
• 3:50
  do
• 3:50
  you
• 3:51
  do?
• 3:51
  So
• 3:51
  many
• 3:51
  of
• 3:51
  us
• 3:52
  do
• 3:52
  this,
• 3:53
  we
• 3:53
  just
• 3:53
  bury
• 3:54
  our
• 3:54
  gifts,
• 3:55
  we
• 3:55
  put
• 3:55
  them
• 3:56
  away.
• 3:56
  But
• 3:56
  you
• 3:56
  know
• 3:56
  what
• 3:56
  I'm
• 3:57
  going
• 3:57
  to
• 3:57
  worry
• 3:57
  about?
• 3:57
  I'm
• 3:57
  going
• 3:57
  to
• 3:57
  focus
• 3:58
  on
• 3:58
  my
• 3:58
  main
• 3:58
  job.
• 3:59
  Culture
• 3:59
  tells
• 4:00
  me
• 4:00
  I
• 4:00
  got
• 4:00
  to
• 4:00
  focus
• 4:00
  on
• 4:01
  that
• 4:01
  main
• 4:01
  job.
• 4:02
  I
• 4:02
  can't
• 4:03
  put
• 4:03
  myself
• 4:03
  out
• 4:03
  there.
• 4:05
  The
• 4:05
  problem
• 4:06
  with
• 4:06
  that,
• 4:07
  and
• 4:08
  this
• 4:08
  is
• 4:08
  a
• 4:08
  truly
• 4:09
  sinister
• 4:09
  problem,
• 4:12
  you've
• 4:12
  got
• 4:12
  this
• 4:12
  untapped
• 4:13
  potential.
• 4:15
  You've
• 4:15
  got
• 4:15
  missed
• 4:16
  provision.
• 4:16
  God
• 4:16
  gave
• 4:17
  you
• 4:17
  these
• 4:17
  talents
• 4:17
  for
• 4:17
  a
• 4:18
  purpose.
• 4:19
  And
• 4:19
  for
• 4:19
  so
• 4:20
  many
• 4:20
  people,
• 4:22
  it's
• 4:22
  the
• 4:22
  reason
• 4:22
  they
• 4:23
  feel
• 4:23
  stuck
• 4:24
  and
• 4:24
  they
• 4:24
  feel
• 4:25
  mired
• 4:25
  down
• 4:25
  in
• 4:26
  this
• 4:26
  financial
• 4:27
  cycle
• 4:27
  of
• 4:27
  shame.
• 4:30
  But
• 4:30
  here's
• 4:30
  something
• 4:31
  I
• 4:31
  want
• 4:31
  you
• 4:31
  to
• 4:31
  hear,
• 4:31
  and
• 4:31
  this
• 4:31
  is
• 4:32
  a
• 4:32
  very
• 4:32
  bold
• 4:32
  statement
• 4:33
  I'm
• 4:33
  making
• 4:33
  today.
• 4:35
  Playing
• 4:35
  it
• 4:35
  safe
• 4:36
  isn't
• 4:37
  safe.
• 4:38
  I
• 4:38
  want
• 4:38
  to
• 4:39
  say
• 4:39
  that
• 4:39
  one
• 4:39
  more
• 4:39
  time
• 4:39
  because
• 4:40
  you
• 4:40
  want
• 4:40
  to
• 4:40
  hear.
• 4:40
  You
• 4:40
  got
• 4:41
  to
• 4:41
  hear
• 4:41
  this.
• 4:42
  Playing
• 4:42
  it
• 4:42
  safe
• 4:44
  isn't
• 4:44
  safe.
• 4:44
  And
• 4:45
  here's
• 4:45
  where
• 4:45
  the
• 4:45
  sin
• 4:45
  part
• 4:46
  comes
• 4:46
  in.
• 4:47
  And
• 4:47
  I'm
• 4:47
  not
• 4:47
  judging.
• 4:48
  Let
• 4:48
  me
• 4:48
  be
• 4:48
  very
• 4:48
  clear
• 4:48
  about
• 4:48
  that.
• 4:49
  I'm
• 4:49
  not
• 4:49
  judging
• 4:50
  you,
• 4:50
  but
• 4:51
  I
• 4:51
  truly
• 4:51
  believe
• 4:51
  this.
• 4:53
  It's
• 4:53
  disobedience.
• 4:55
  See,
• 4:56
  playing
• 4:56
  it
• 4:56
  safe
• 4:56
  if
• 4:56
  you're
• 4:57
  not
• 4:57
  using
• 4:57
  the
• 4:57
  talents.
• 4:58
  God
• 4:58
  gave
• 4:58
  you
• 4:58
  talents
• 4:59
  for
• 4:59
  a
• 4:59
  reason.
• 5:00
  He
• 5:00
  gave
• 5:00
  you
• 5:00
  gifts.
• 5:01
  He
• 5:01
  gave
• 5:01
  you
• 5:01
  skills
• 5:02
  for
• 5:02
  a
• 5:02
  reason.
• 5:04
  If
• 5:04
  you're
• 5:04
  not
• 5:05
  using
• 5:05
  them,
• 5:07
  you're
• 5:07
  being
• 5:07
  disobedient
• 5:08
  to
• 5:08
  God.
• 5:08
  You're
• 5:08
  saying
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  God,
• 5:10
  that's
• 5:10
  nice,
• 5:10
  but
• 5:10
  I
• 5:10
  don't
• 5:11
  need
• 5:11
  those.
• 5:11
  Lord,
• 5:13
  think
• 5:13
  about
• 5:13
  the
• 5:13
  parable
• 5:14
  of
• 5:14
  the
• 5:14
  towns
• 5:14
  in
• 5:14
  Matthew
• 5:15
  25:14,
• 5:16
  30.
• 5:17
  But
• 5:18
  that
• 5:18
  servant
• 5:18
  had
• 5:18
  buried
• 5:19
  his
• 5:19
  gift.
• 5:21
  And
• 5:21
  when
• 5:21
  the
• 5:21
  master
• 5:22
  returned,
• 5:22
  what
• 5:22
  did
• 5:22
  he
• 5:23
  do.
• 5:23
  He
• 5:23
  scolded
• 5:23
  him.
• 5:24
  He
• 5:24
  condemned
• 5:24
  him.
• 5:25
  He
• 5:25
  didn't
• 5:26
  praise
• 5:26
  him.
• 5:28
  Why
• 5:28
  do
• 5:28
  you
• 5:28
  think
• 5:28
  that's
• 5:28
  in
• 5:29
  the
• 5:29
  Bible?
• 5:29
  Why
• 5:29
  do
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  think
• 5:30
  Jesus
• 5:30
  talked
• 5:30
  about
• 5:31
  this?
• 5:32
  Because
• 5:33
  God
• 5:33
  gave
• 5:33
  you
• 5:33
  talents.
• 5:34
  He
• 5:34
  wants
• 5:34
  you
• 5:34
  to
• 5:34
  use
• 5:35
  them.
• 5:35
  He
• 5:35
  wants
• 5:36
  you
• 5:36
  to
• 5:36
  use
• 5:36
  them
• 5:36
  to
• 5:36
  glorify
• 5:37
  him.
• 5:37
  He
• 5:37
  wants
• 5:37
  you
• 5:37
  to
• 5:38
  use
• 5:38
  them
• 5:38
  to
• 5:38
  build
• 5:38
  the
• 5:39
  kingdom.
• 5:39
  He
• 5:39
  wants
• 5:39
  you
• 5:39
  to
• 5:40
  enrich
• 5:40
  your
• 5:40
  life
• 5:40
  with
• 5:41
  those
• 5:41
  things.
• 5:41
  Because
• 5:41
  when
• 5:41
  you
• 5:42
  do,
• 5:42
  your,
• 5:42
  you
• 5:43
  enrich
• 5:43
  other
• 5:43
  people's
• 5:44
  lives.
• 5:46
  Let's
• 5:46
  look
• 5:46
  at
• 5:46
  some
• 5:46
  more
• 5:47
  scripture.
• 5:47
  This
• 5:47
  is
• 5:47
  from
• 5:48
  Matthew,
• 5:48
  chapter
• 5:49
  25,
• 5:49
  verse
• 5:49
  29.
• 5:51
  And
• 5:51
  I
• 5:51
  love
• 5:51
  this
• 5:52
  scripture.
• 5:52
  I
• 5:52
  think
• 5:52
  this
• 5:52
  one
• 5:53
  is
• 5:53
  the
• 5:53
  thing
• 5:53
  that
• 5:54
  we
• 5:54
  can
• 5:54
  set
• 5:54
  our
• 5:54
  hearts
• 5:55
  on
• 5:55
  today.
• 5:56
  Again,
• 5:56
  Matthew
• 5:57
  25,
• 5:58
  verse
• 5:58
  29.
• 6:00
  For
• 6:00
  whoever
• 6:01
  has
• 6:01
  will
• 6:01
  be
• 6:01
  given
• 6:02
  more,
• 6:03
  and
• 6:03
  they
• 6:04
  will
• 6:04
  have
• 6:04
  an
• 6:04
  abundance.
• 6:06
  Whoever
• 6:06
  does
• 6:07
  not
• 6:07
  have
• 6:07
  even
• 6:07
  what
• 6:08
  they
• 6:08
  have
• 6:09
  will
• 6:10
  be
• 6:10
  taken
• 6:10
  from
• 6:10
  them.
• 6:12
  And
• 6:12
  that's
• 6:13
  a
• 6:13
  little
• 6:13
  piercing,
• 6:13
  isn't
• 6:14
  it?
• 6:14
  You're
• 6:14
  probably
• 6:15
  sitting
• 6:15
  there
• 6:15
  right
• 6:15
  now
• 6:15
  going,
• 6:16
  ralph,
• 6:16
  man,
• 6:16
  you're
• 6:16
  being
• 6:16
  a
• 6:17
  little
• 6:17
  dark
• 6:17
  today.
• 6:18
  Yes,
• 6:18
  I
• 6:19
  am.
• 6:21
  God
• 6:22
  did
• 6:22
  not
• 6:22
  give
• 6:22
  you
• 6:23
  talents
• 6:23
  to
• 6:24
  hide
• 6:24
  them.
• 6:25
  God
• 6:26
  gave
• 6:26
  you
• 6:26
  talents
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  use
• 6:27
  them.
• 6:27
  He
• 6:27
  gave
• 6:27
  you
• 6:27
  talents
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  multiply
• 6:29
  them
• 6:29
  and
• 6:29
  to
• 6:29
  bless
• 6:30
  others.
• 6:30
  It
• 6:30
  just
• 6:30
  frustrates
• 6:31
  me
• 6:31
  when
• 6:32
  I
• 6:32
  see
• 6:32
  talented
• 6:33
  people
• 6:33
  who
• 6:34
  are
• 6:34
  scared,
• 6:34
  who
• 6:34
  live
• 6:35
  in
• 6:35
  fear,
• 6:35
  who
• 6:35
  don't
• 6:36
  want
• 6:36
  to
• 6:36
  put
• 6:36
  those
• 6:36
  talents
• 6:37
  out.
• 6:37
  God
• 6:37
  gave
• 6:38
  those
• 6:38
  to
• 6:38
  you.
• 6:38
  If
• 6:38
  you
• 6:39
  don't
• 6:39
  use
• 6:39
  them,
• 6:39
  you're
• 6:40
  being
• 6:40
  disobedient.
• 6:41
  Being
• 6:41
  disobedient
• 6:42
  is
• 6:42
  a
• 6:42
  sin.
• 6:44
  And
• 6:44
  here's
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  controversial
• 6:46
  part
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  this.
• 6:48
  When
• 6:48
  you
• 6:48
  refuse
• 6:48
  to
• 6:49
  use
• 6:49
  your
• 6:49
  talents
• 6:49
  to
• 6:50
  earn
• 6:50
  an
• 6:50
  impact,
• 6:51
  what
• 6:52
  are
• 6:52
  you
• 6:52
  really
• 6:52
  doing?
• 6:52
  You're
• 6:53
  burying
• 6:53
  God's
• 6:54
  trust.
• 6:56
  This
• 6:56
  isn't
• 6:56
  greed.
• 6:58
  So
• 6:58
  many
• 6:58
  people
• 6:58
  think,
• 6:59
  well,
• 6:59
  if
• 6:59
  I
• 6:59
  use
• 6:59
  this
• 6:59
  talent,
• 7:00
  Ralph,
• 7:00
  it's
• 7:00
  just
• 7:01
  greed.
• 7:01
  I'm
• 7:01
  trying
• 7:01
  to
• 7:01
  get
• 7:02
  more
• 7:02
  money.
• 7:03
  That's
• 7:03
  not
• 7:03
  at
• 7:04
  all
• 7:04
  what
• 7:04
  it
• 7:04
  is.
• 7:05
  See,
• 7:05
  culture
• 7:05
  wants
• 7:05
  to
• 7:05
  tell
• 7:06
  you
• 7:06
  that
• 7:06
  because
• 7:06
  they
• 7:06
  don't
• 7:06
  want
• 7:07
  you
• 7:07
  to
• 7:07
  be
• 7:07
  different.
• 7:07
  They
• 7:08
  don't
• 7:08
  want
• 7:08
  you
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  stand
• 7:08
  out.
• 7:09
  They
• 7:09
  don't
• 7:09
  want
• 7:09
  you
• 7:10
  to
• 7:10
  excel.
• 7:12
  This
• 7:12
  isn't
• 7:12
  about
• 7:12
  being
• 7:13
  greedy.
• 7:14
  It's
• 7:14
  about
• 7:15
  stewarding
• 7:15
  what
• 7:15
  God
• 7:16
  has
• 7:16
  given
• 7:16
  you.
• 7:17
  And
• 7:17
  money
• 7:17
  is
• 7:18
  just
• 7:18
  one
• 7:18
  of
• 7:18
  the
• 7:18
  ways
• 7:18
  that
• 7:18
  God
• 7:19
  multiplies
• 7:19
  your
• 7:19
  gifts.
• 7:21
  It's
• 7:21
  not
• 7:22
  all
• 7:22
  about
• 7:22
  the
• 7:22
  money
• 7:22
  either.
• 7:24
  But
• 7:24
  think
• 7:24
  about
• 7:25
  how
• 7:25
  those
• 7:25
  gifts
• 7:25
  can
• 7:26
  impact
• 7:26
  somebody.
• 7:27
  Think
• 7:27
  about
• 7:28
  how
• 7:28
  those
• 7:28
  gifts
• 7:28
  can
• 7:29
  enrich
• 7:29
  somebody
• 7:29
  else's
• 7:30
  lives.
• 7:32
  So
• 7:33
  now
• 7:33
  you're
• 7:33
  asking,
• 7:33
  what
• 7:33
  can
• 7:34
  we
• 7:34
  do?
• 7:35
  Well,
• 7:35
  here's
• 7:36
  the
• 7:36
  thing
• 7:36
  I'm
• 7:36
  going
• 7:36
  to
• 7:36
  tell
• 7:37
  you
• 7:37
  right
• 7:37
  now,
• 7:37
  the
• 7:37
  thing
• 7:37
  you
• 7:37
  absolutely
• 7:38
  got
• 7:38
  to
• 7:38
  do.
• 7:38
  So
• 7:38
  many
• 7:39
  people
• 7:39
  say
• 7:39
  this,
• 7:39
  someday
• 7:40
  I'll
• 7:40
  do
• 7:40
  that,
• 7:40
  Ralph.
• 7:40
  You
• 7:40
  know,
• 7:41
  when
• 7:41
  I
• 7:41
  got
• 7:41
  time,
• 7:41
  when
• 7:42
  I
• 7:42
  retire,
• 7:42
  I'll
• 7:42
  do
• 7:43
  do
• 7:43
  those
• 7:43
  things.
• 7:44
  Stop
• 7:44
  waiting
• 7:45
  for
• 7:45
  Someday
• 7:46
  and
• 7:46
  do
• 7:46
  it
• 7:46
  right
• 7:47
  now.
• 7:47
  If
• 7:47
  you're
• 7:48
  sitting
• 7:48
  there
• 7:48
  right
• 7:48
  now
• 7:49
  listening
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  my
• 7:49
  voice
• 7:49
  or
• 7:50
  you're
• 7:50
  watching
• 7:50
  me,
• 7:51
  do
• 7:51
  it
• 7:51
  today.
• 7:52
  Take
• 7:52
  those
• 7:52
  talents
• 7:53
  that
• 7:53

  you
• 7:54
  and
• 7:54
  put
• 7:54
  them
• 7:54
  to

• 7:55
  Put

  them
• 7:55
  to
• 7:56
  work
• 7:56
  and
• 7:56
  bless
• 7:56
  other
• 7:57
  people.
• 7:57
  Stop
• 7:58
  saying
• 7:58
  you're
• 7:58
  not
• 7:58
  good
• 7:58
  enough.
• 8:00
  You
• 8:00
  are
• 8:00
  good
• 8:00
  enough.
• 8:01
  You're
• 8:01
  a
• 8:01
  blessed
• 8:02
  child
• 8:02
  of
• 8:02
  God
• 8:02
  and
• 8:02
  the
• 8:03
  talents
• 8:03
  he's
• 8:03
  given
• 8:03
  you
• 8:04
  will
• 8:04
  make
• 8:05
  a
• 8:05
  difference
• 8:05
  in
• 8:05
  this
• 8:06
  world.
• 8:06
  You
• 8:06
  just
• 8:07
  have
• 8:07
  to
• 8:07
  have
• 8:07
  the
• 8:08
  right,
• 8:08
  the
• 8:08
  strata.
• 8:09
  You
• 8:09
  just
• 8:09
  have
• 8:09
  to
• 8:10
  take
• 8:10
  the
• 8:10
  chance
• 8:11
  and
• 8:11
  go
• 8:11
  do
• 8:11
  it.
• 8:13
  And
• 8:13
  that's
• 8:13
  my
• 8:13
  big
• 8:14
  encouragement
• 8:14
  for
• 8:14
  today.
• 8:15
  Take
• 8:15
  one
• 8:15
  God
• 8:16
  given
• 8:16
  gift
• 8:16
  and
• 8:17
  put
• 8:17
  it
• 8:17
  to
• 8:17
  work.
• 8:18
  Not
• 8:18
  tomorrow,
• 8:18
  not
• 8:19
  next
• 8:19
  week.
• 8:19
  Do
• 8:20
  it
• 8:20
  today.
• 8:22
  There
• 8:22
  are
• 8:22
  people
• 8:22
  that
• 8:23
  will
• 8:23
  be
• 8:23
  impacted
• 8:24
  by
• 8:24
  you
• 8:24
  making
• 8:24
  this
• 8:24
  decision.
• 8:25
  So
• 8:25
  here's
• 8:25
  my
• 8:25
  one
• 8:26
  action
• 8:26
  item
• 8:26
  for
• 8:26
  today.
• 8:27
  And
• 8:27
  it's
• 8:27
  going
• 8:27
  to
• 8:27
  be
• 8:27
  pretty
• 8:28
  straightforward
• 8:28
  today.
• 8:29
  Start
• 8:29
  by
• 8:30
  calling
• 8:30
  out
• 8:30
  the
• 8:30
  lie.
• 8:32
  This
• 8:32
  is
• 8:32
  exactly
• 8:33
  what
• 8:33
  you're
• 8:33
  living
• 8:33
  in.
• 8:33
  You're
• 8:33
  living
• 8:34
  in
• 8:34
  a
• 8:34
  lie.
• 8:35
  Write
• 8:35
  down
• 8:36
  that
• 8:36
  fear
• 8:36
  that's
• 8:36
  holding
• 8:37
  you
• 8:37
  back.
• 8:37
  What
• 8:38
  is
• 8:38
  that
• 8:38
  fear?
• 8:38
  I'm
• 8:39
  not
• 8:39
  good
• 8:39
  enough.
• 8:39
  Nobody
• 8:40
  will
• 8:40
  pay
• 8:40
  me
• 8:40
  for
• 8:40
  this.
• 8:41
  Write
• 8:41
  those
• 8:41
  things
• 8:42
  down.
• 8:42
  Write
• 8:42
  them
• 8:43
  down
• 8:43
  10
• 8:43
  times
• 8:43
  if
• 8:43
  you
• 8:44
  have
• 8:44
  to.
• 8:44
  And
• 8:44
  then
• 8:44
  take
• 8:44
  that
• 8:45
  piece
• 8:45
  of
• 8:45
  paper,
• 8:45
  fold
• 8:46
  it
• 8:46
  up
• 8:46
  and
• 8:46
  burn
• 8:46
  it.
• 8:46
  Because
• 8:47
  you
• 8:47
  need
• 8:47
  to
• 8:47
  start
• 8:48
  by
• 8:48
  calling
• 8:48
  out
• 8:48
  the
• 8:48
  lie.
• 8:49
  And
• 8:49
  then
• 8:49
  move
• 8:50
  on
• 8:50
  to
• 8:50
  the
• 8:50
  second
• 8:50
  step.
• 8:51
  And
• 8:51
  that's
• 8:51
  list
• 8:51
  your
• 8:52
  talents.
• 8:53
  List
• 8:53
  those
• 8:53
  things
• 8:53
  that
• 8:54
  come
• 8:54
  naturally
• 8:54
  to
• 8:54
  you.
• 8:55
  What
• 8:55
  do
• 8:55
  people
• 8:56
  thank
• 8:56
  you
• 8:56
  for?
• 8:56
  Those
• 8:57
  are
• 8:57
  your
• 8:57
  talents.
• 8:59
  So
• 8:59
  many
• 8:59
  people
• 9:00
  will
• 9:00
  tell
• 9:00
  you,
• 9:01
  Ralph,
• 9:01
  you're
• 9:01
  really
• 9:02
  good
• 9:02
  at
• 9:02
  this.
• 9:03
  Sally,
• 9:03
  you're
• 9:04
  really
• 9:04
  good
• 9:04
  at
• 9:04
  that.
• 9:05
  Then
• 9:06
  I'm
• 9:06
  just
• 9:06
  going
• 9:06
  to
• 9:06
  encourage
• 9:06
  you
• 9:06
  to
• 9:07
  choose
• 9:07
  one.
• 9:07
  Don't
• 9:07
  overthink
• 9:08
  this.
• 9:09
  Just
• 9:10
  pick
• 9:10
  one
• 9:11
  and
• 9:11
  take
• 9:12
  that
• 9:12
  bold
• 9:12
  step.
• 9:12
  Take
• 9:13
  that
• 9:13
  bold
• 9:13
  step
• 9:13
  today.
• 9:14
  Tell
• 9:14
  three
• 9:14
  people
• 9:15
  you're
• 9:15
  offering
• 9:15
  it.
• 9:16
  Post
• 9:16
  a
• 9:16
  message
• 9:17
  online.
• 9:17
  Create
• 9:17
  a
• 9:17
  sample
• 9:18
  record,
• 9:18
  a
• 9:18
  demo.
• 9:20
  You
• 9:20
  can
• 9:20
  do
• 9:20
  this.
• 9:21
  Don't
• 9:22
  allow
• 9:22
  your
• 9:23
  talents
• 9:23
  to
• 9:23
  go
• 9:23
  wasted
• 9:24
  and
• 9:24
  living
• 9:25
  in
• 9:25
  fear.
• 9:27
  And
• 9:27
  maybe
• 9:27
  you
• 9:27
  still
• 9:27
  got
• 9:28
  a
• 9:28
  little
• 9:28
  twinge
• 9:28
  of
• 9:28
  fear.
• 9:28
  Well,
• 9:29
  just
• 9:29
  ask
• 9:29
  God
• 9:29
  for
• 9:29
  courage.
• 9:30
  Pray
• 9:30
  for
• 9:30
  courage.
• 9:31
  Ask
• 9:31
  God
• 9:31
  to
• 9:31
  multiply
• 9:32
  your
• 9:32
  effort.
• 9:32
  Ask
• 9:33
  him
• 9:33
  to
• 9:33
  open
• 9:33
  up
• 9:33
  those
• 9:33
  doors.
• 9:34
  Ask
• 9:34
  him
• 9:34
  to
• 9:35
  give
• 9:35
  you
• 9:35
  boldness,
• 9:37
  because
• 9:38
  he'll
• 9:38
  give
• 9:38
  it
• 9:38
  to
• 9:38
  you.
• 9:38
  He
• 9:39
  gave
• 9:39
  you
• 9:39
  those
• 9:39
  talents.
• 9:40
  He
• 9:40
  gave
• 9:40
  you
• 9:41
  those
• 9:41
  abilities
• 9:42
  for
• 9:42
  a
• 9:42
  reason.
• 9:44
  Let's
• 9:44
  pray
• 9:44
  together.
• 9:46
  Father
• 9:46
  God,
• 9:46
  thank
• 9:46
  you
• 9:47
  for
• 9:47
  the
• 9:47
  talents
• 9:47
  and
• 9:47
  the
• 9:47
  abilities
• 9:48
  you've
• 9:48
  given
• 9:48
  us.
• 9:50
  And
• 9:50
  Lord,
• 9:50
  we
• 9:50
  just
• 9:50
  ask
• 9:50
  you
• 9:51
  right
• 9:51
  now
• 9:51
  that
• 9:51
  you
• 9:51
  forgive
• 9:52
  us
• 9:52
  when
• 9:52
  we
• 9:52
  bury
• 9:52
  them
• 9:53
  out
• 9:53
  of
• 9:53
  fear,
• 9:53
  when
• 9:54
  we
• 9:54
  bury
• 9:54
  them
• 9:54
  out
• 9:55
  of
• 9:55
  doubt.
• 9:55
  Lord,
• 9:55
  give
• 9:56
  us
• 9:56
  courage
• 9:56
  to
• 9:56
  step
• 9:57
  out
• 9:57
  in
• 9:57
  faith.
• 9:58
  Give
• 9:58
  us
• 9:59
  courage
• 9:59
  to
• 9:59
  step
• 9:59
  and
• 10:00
  to
• 10:00
  multiply
• 10:01
  what
• 10:01
  you've
• 10:01
  entrusted
• 10:02
  to
• 10:02
  us.
• 10:02
  Lord,
• 10:02
  open
• 10:03
  our
• 10:03
  eyes
• 10:03
  to
• 10:03
  opportunities
• 10:04
  to
• 10:05
  use
• 10:05
  our
• 10:05
  skills
• 10:05
  for
• 10:05
  your
• 10:06
  glory
• 10:07
  and
• 10:07
  for
• 10:07
  the
• 10:07
  provision
• 10:08
  of
• 10:08
  our
• 10:08
  families,
• 10:08
  Lord,
• 10:09
  make
• 10:09
  us
• 10:09
  faithful
• 10:10
  stewards.
• 10:10
  Not
• 10:10
  hiding,
• 10:12
  not,
• 10:13
  not
• 10:13
  living
• 10:13
  in
• 10:13
  fear,
• 10:14
  Lord,
• 10:14
  but
• 10:14
  boldly
• 10:15
  building
• 10:15
  on
• 10:16
  the
• 10:16
  talents
• 10:16
  and
• 10:16
  the
• 10:16
  gifts
• 10:17
  that
• 10:17
  you've
• 10:17
  given
• 10:17
  us.
• 10:17
  And
• 10:18
  we
• 10:18
  ask
• 10:18
  this
• 10:18
  in
• 10:18
  complete
• 10:19
  confidence,
• 10:20
  knowing
• 10:20
  that
• 10:20
  you
• 10:21
  will
• 10:21
  make
• 10:21
  it
• 10:21
  work,
• 10:21
  Lord,
• 10:22
  in
• 10:22
  Jesus
• 10:22
  name,
• 10:23
  amen.
• 10:25
  Hiding
• 10:25
  your
• 10:26
  talents
• 10:26
  isn't
• 10:27
  humility.
• 10:28
  I
• 10:28
  want
• 10:28
  to
• 10:29
  go
• 10:29
  back
• 10:29
  to
• 10:29
  what
• 10:29
  I
• 10:29
  said
• 10:29
  a
• 10:29
  little
• 10:29
  while
• 10:30
  ago,
• 10:30
  and
• 10:30
  I
• 10:30
  might
• 10:30
  get
• 10:30
  some
• 10:31
  hate
• 10:31
  mail
• 10:31
  over
• 10:31
  this,
• 10:31
  but
• 10:32
  that's
• 10:32
  okay.
• 10:33
  Hiding
• 10:34
  your
• 10:34
  talents
• 10:34
  is
• 10:34
  disobedience.
• 10:36
  God
• 10:37
  gave
• 10:37
  you
• 10:37
  gifts
• 10:37
  for
• 10:38
  a
• 10:38
  reason.
• 10:39
  Yes,
• 10:39
  they
• 10:40
  can
• 10:40
  provide,
• 10:40
  yes,
• 10:41
  they
• 10:41
  can
• 10:41
  bless.
• 10:42
  But
• 10:42
  they're
• 10:43
  only
• 10:43
  going
• 10:43
  to
• 10:43
  do
• 10:43
  that
• 10:43
  if
• 10:43
  you
• 10:44
  use
• 10:44
  them.
• 10:44
  So
• 10:45
  I'm
• 10:45
  going
• 10:45
  to
• 10:45
  encourage
• 10:45
  you
• 10:45
  again,
• 10:46
  take
• 10:46
  that
• 10:46
  bold
• 10:46
  step
• 10:47
  today.
• 10:48
  And
• 10:48
  as
• 10:49
  you're
• 10:49
  taking
• 10:49
  that
• 10:49
  bold
• 10:49
  step
• 10:50
  today,
• 10:50
  maybe
• 10:50
  you
• 10:50
  know
• 10:50
  somebody
• 10:51
  who
• 10:51
  has
• 10:51
  a
• 10:51
  talent.
• 10:52
  Maybe
• 10:52
  you
• 10:52
  know
• 10:52
  somebody
• 10:52
  that's
• 10:53
  a
• 10:53
  great
• 10:53
  cook
• 10:53
  or
• 10:54
  somebody
• 10:54
  that's
• 10:54
  a
• 10:54
  talented
• 10:55
  teacher
• 10:56
  or
• 10:56
  a
• 10:57
  writer
• 10:57
  or
• 10:57
  an
• 10:57
  organizer.
• 10:58
  I'm
• 10:59
  gonna
• 10:59
  encourage
• 10:59
  you
• 10:59
  to
• 10:59
  share
• 10:59
  the
• 11:00
  show
• 11:00
  with
• 11:00
  them
• 11:00
  today.
• 11:01
  This
• 11:01
  might
• 11:01
  be
• 11:01
  the
• 11:02
  little
• 11:02
  nudge
• 11:02
  they
• 11:02
  need
• 11:03
  to
• 11:03
  help
• 11:03
  them
• 11:04
  start
• 11:04
  to
• 11:04
  use
• 11:05
  those
• 11:05
  talents
• 11:06
  that
• 11:06
  God
• 11:06
  has
• 11:06
  given
• 11:07
  them.
• 11:07
  Just

  point

  them

  right

  to

  we're

  A

  lot

  I

  this
• 12:01
  with
• 12:01
  every
• 12:02
  ounce
• 12:02
  of
• 12:03
  my
• 12:03
  being.
• 12:04
  Generosity
• 12:05
  feels
• 12:05
  risky,
• 12:06
  but
• 12:06
  it
• 12:06
  can
• 12:07
  actually
• 12:07
  bring
• 12:07
  you
• 12:08
  peace.
• 12:08
  And
• 12:08
  tomorrow
• 12:08
  on
• 12:08
  the

• 12:09
  I'm

  how

• 12:11
  make
• 12:11
  generosity
• 12:12
  bring
• 12:12
  you
• 12:13
  peace
• 12:13
  and
• 12:14
  build
• 12:14
  the
• 12:14
  kingdom
• 12:15
  of
• 12:15
  the

  Lord.

  And

  remember
• 12:17
  this,
• 12:18
  your

  talents
• 12:18
  aren't
• 12:19
  accidents.
• 12:20
  This
• 12:20
  isn't
• 12:21
  some
• 12:21
  happenstance
• 12:21
  thing.
• 12:22
  They're
• 12:22
  assignments.
• 12:24
  And
• 12:24
  it's
• 12:24
  time
• 12:24
  to
• 12:25
  put
• 12:25
  them
• 12:25
  to

  work.

  You

  do

  this.

  I
• 12:27

• 12:27
  in
• 12:28
  you.
• 12:28
  And
• 12:28
  more
• 12:28
  importantly
• 12:29
  than
• 12:29
  anything
• 12:29
  else,
• 12:29
  don't
• 12:29
  even
• 12:30
  worry
• 12:30
  about
• 12:30
  me.
• 12:30
  God
• 12:31
  believes
• 12:31
  in
• 12:31
  you.
• 12:33
  Believe
• 12:33
  in
• 12:33
  him.
• 12:34
  Stay

  financially
• 12:34
  savvy.
• 12:35
  Go
• 12:35
  out
• 12:35
  there
• 12:35
  and

  be

  Christian.

  you.
