  Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
• 0:03
  Huddle for March 2nd, 2026.
• 0:06
  A two-minute call from God's playbook to
• 0:09
  know him better so we can love and obey
• 0:10
  him more. Let's huddle up and hear
• 0:12
  today's play from Exodus 34, which says,
• 0:16
  "Adoni passed before him and proclaimed
• 0:19
  Adoni as God, merciful and
• 0:22
  compassionate, slow to anger, rich in
• 0:25
  grace and truth, showing grace to the
• 0:28
  thousandth generation, forgiving
• 0:30
  offenses, crimes, and sins, yet not
• 0:33
  exonerating the guilty, but causing the
• 0:35
  negative effects of the parents offenses
• 0:38
  to be experienced by their children and
• 0:40
  grandchildren.
• 0:41
  even to the third and fourth generation.
• 0:44
  Man, let me ask you something today. Who
• 0:46
  is God? Not who do we imagine him to be
• 0:50
  or who do our culture say he is, but or
• 0:53
  what religion shapes him into, but who
• 0:56
  does God say he is? In Exodus 34, God
• 1:00
  introduces himself. The Lord, merciful
• 1:03
  and compassionate, slow to anger, rich
• 1:05
  in grace and truth, forgiving sin, yet
• 1:08
  not clearing the guilty. That is God
• 1:12
  defining himself. He's not a distant,
• 1:15
  oppressive deity as portrayed in Islam,
• 1:18
  where submission is demanded, but
• 1:20
  intimacy is not offered. He's not one
• 1:23
  god among many like Hinduism. And he's
• 1:26
  not an impersonal force like the mystics
• 1:28
  described. And he's not the godless
• 1:31
  moral system of Buddhism. He's personal.
• 1:34
  He speaks. He forgives. He judges. He
• 1:37
  loves. He reveals. And notice the
• 1:40
  balance. Merciful and compassionate. Not
• 1:43
  clearing the guilty. How can both be
• 1:45
  true? Only at the cross. God did not
• 1:49
  ignore justice. He satisfied it in
• 1:51
  Jesus. Jesus lived perfectly, but he
• 1:54
  died in our place. And then he rose from
• 1:57
  the dead. At the cross, mercy and
• 1:59
  justice meet. All the religions tell you
• 2:02
  to climb your way up to God. The gospel
• 2:04
  tells you that God came down to you.
• 2:07
  Life is hard, not because God is cruel,
• 2:09
  but because we have rebelled. Sin
• 2:11
  fractures everything, homes, hearts,
• 2:14
  nations. But God's not the cause of the
• 2:17
  problem. He's the cure for the problem.
• 2:18
  And he made a way. Not through a ritual,
• 2:21
  not through our effort, not through
• 2:23
  enlightenment, through repentance and
• 2:26
  faith in Jesus Christ. Men, clarity
• 2:28
  matters. God is not whoever we want him
• 2:31
  to be. He is who he is as he's revealed
• 2:34
  himself to be merciful, holy, just,
• 2:38
  compassionate, true, and worthy of our
• 2:41
  full allegiance. Let's run today's play.
• 2:44
  Read Exodus 34 for yourself. Let God
• 2:47
  define himself to you, not the culture.
• 2:50
  Repent where we've resisted him. Trust
• 2:52
  Christ fully and reflect his character.
• 2:55
  Be slow to anger. Be rich in grace.
• 2:59
  Commit yourself to truth. Represent your
• 3:02
  father well because there's only one God
• 3:04
  and he has made himself known to you. If
• 3:08
  this huddle has blessed you, I pray that
• 3:10
  you'll send it to another brother and
• 3:12
  then write a comment. It helps other men
• 3:14
  find their way into the huddle.
