• 1:34
  to
• 1:34
  all
• 1:34
  nations,
• 1:35
  starting
• 1:35

  You're

  You're

  witnesses.
• 1:43
  What
• 1:43
  comes
• 1:43
  next
• 1:43
  is

  very

  important.
• 1:44
  I'm

• 1:45
  my

  Father
• 1:46
  promised
• 1:46

• 1:46
  you.
• 1:47
  So

  stay

  here

• 1:50
  until
• 1:50
  you're
• 1:51
  equipped
• 1:51
  with
• 1:52
  power
• 1:53
  from
• 1:53
  on
• 1:53
  high.
• 1:55
  Then
• 1:56
  he
• 1:56
  led
• 1:56
  them
• 1:56
  out
• 1:56
  of
• 1:56
  the

  Bethany,
• 1:58
  raising

  and

  returned
• 2:09
  to
• 2:09
  Jerusalem
• 2:10
  bursting
• 2:10
  with
• 2:11
  joy.
• 2:12
  They
• 2:12
  spent
• 2:12
  all
• 2:12
  their
• 2:13
  time
• 2:13
  in

  It's

• 2:52
  statement.
• 2:52
  It's
• 2:52
  not
• 2:52
  a
• 2:52
  loyalty
• 2:53
  test.
• 2:54
  He
• 2:54
  says
• 2:54
  the
• 2:54
  point
• 2:54

  All

  people.
• 3:07
  Not

  All
• 3:18
  of

  them.
• 3:19
  And
• 3:19
  it
• 3:19
  starts
• 3:19
  from
• 3:20
  here,
• 3:21
  from
• 3:21
  right
• 3:21
  where
• 3:22
  you

  In

  case,
• 3:25
  in
• 3:25
  our

  case,

  it's

  where

  from

  Progressive

  seriously.
• 3:35
  The

  It's

  No
• 4:18
  asterisks,
• 4:19
  no
• 4:19
  fine
• 4:19
  point,
• 4:20
  everybody.
• 4:22
  Second
• 4:22
  point
• 4:22
  to
• 4:23
  ponder.
• 4:25
  And
• 4:25
  this
• 4:25
  is
• 4:25
  the
• 4:25
  detail
• 4:26
  that
• 4:26
  gets
• 4:26
  me,
• 4:26
  and
• 4:27
  I
• 4:27
  just
• 4:27
  want
• 4:27
  to
• 4:27
  share
• 4:27
  it
• 4:27
  with
• 4:27
  you.
• 4:29
  It
• 4:29
  says
• 4:29
  here,
• 4:30
  while
• 4:30
  blessing
• 4:31
  them,
• 4:31
  he
• 4:32
  made
• 4:32
  his
• 4:32
  exit.
• 4:35
  Wow,
• 4:36
  talk
• 4:36
  about
• 4:37
  drama.
• 4:38
  He
• 4:39
  was
• 4:39
  still
• 4:39
  blessing
• 4:39
  them
• 4:40
  as
• 4:40
  he
• 4:40
  left.
• 4:40
  And
• 4:40
  his
• 4:41
  last
• 4:41
  act
• 4:42
  wasn't
• 4:43
  a
• 4:43
  warning.
• 4:43
  It
• 4:43
  wasn't
• 4:44
  a
• 4:44
  list
• 4:44
  of
• 4:44
  rules.
• 4:45
  It
• 4:45
  wasn't
• 4:45
  a
• 4:45
  guilt
• 4:46
  trip.
• 4:47
  It
• 4:47
  was
• 4:47
  a
• 4:48
  blessing.
• 4:50
  Here's
• 4:50
  what
• 4:50
  I
• 4:50
  think
• 4:50
  matters
• 4:51
  about
• 4:51
  that
• 4:52
  the
• 4:52
  disciples
• 4:53
  had
• 4:53
  to
• 4:53
  learn
• 4:53
  to
• 4:53
  live
• 4:54
  in
• 4:54
  the
• 4:54
  continuation
• 4:55
  of
• 4:55
  that
• 4:55
  blessing
• 4:56
  that
• 4:57
  they
• 4:57
  received
• 4:59
  from
• 4:59
  someone
• 4:59
  who's
• 5:00
  no
• 5:00
  longer
• 5:01
  physically
• 5:01
  present.
• 5:04
  That's
• 5:04
  the
• 5:04
  Christian
• 5:05
  life,
• 5:05
  my
• 5:05
  friend.
• 5:06
  We're
• 5:06
  living
• 5:06
  in
• 5:07
  the
• 5:07
  ongoing
• 5:07
  flow
• 5:08
  of
• 5:08
  blessings
• 5:08
  that
• 5:09
  didn't
• 5:09
  stop
• 5:10
  just
• 5:10
  because
• 5:10
  we
• 5:10
  can't
• 5:11
  see
• 5:11
  the
• 5:11
  one
• 5:12
  who
• 5:12
  gave
• 5:12
  it
• 5:13
  to
• 5:13
  us.
• 5:14
  I've
• 5:15
  been
• 5:15
  married
• 5:15
  for
• 5:15
  over
• 5:15
  34
• 5:16
  years,
• 5:16
  and
• 5:16
  I
• 5:16
  learned
• 5:17
  something
• 5:17
  about
• 5:17
  marriage
• 5:18
  in
• 5:18
  that
• 5:18
  time.
• 5:18
  And
• 5:18
  there
• 5:19
  are
• 5:19
  moments
• 5:19
  when
• 5:19
  my
• 5:19
  wife
• 5:20
  and
• 5:20
  I,
• 5:22
  well,
• 5:22
  can
• 5:22
  say
• 5:22
  something
• 5:23
  encouraging
• 5:24
  to
• 5:24
  me
• 5:24
  before
• 5:24
  I
• 5:25
  even
• 5:27
  hear
• 5:27
  it,
• 5:27
  really
• 5:28
  verbally.
• 5:31
  It's
• 5:31
  a
• 5:31
  look,
• 5:33
  it's
• 5:33
  emotion,
• 5:35
  It's
• 5:35
  a
• 5:35
  thing.
• 5:37
  And
• 5:37
  I
• 5:38
  carry
• 5:38
  those
• 5:38
  things
• 5:38
  with
• 5:39
  me
• 5:39
  for
• 5:40
  hours.
• 5:41
  The
• 5:41
  voice
• 5:42
  isn't
• 5:42
  even
• 5:42
  still
• 5:43
  speaking,
• 5:44
  but
• 5:44
  the
• 5:44
  blessing
• 5:45
  is
• 5:45
  still
• 5:45
  active.
• 5:47
  That's
• 5:47
  what's
• 5:47
  happening
• 5:48
  here.
• 5:49
  Jesus
• 5:49
  blesses
• 5:50
  them
• 5:50
  and
• 5:50
  that
• 5:50
  blessing
• 5:51
  keeps
• 5:52
  moving
• 5:52
  through
• 5:53
  them
• 5:53
  and
• 5:53
  out
• 5:54
  into
• 5:54
  the
• 5:55
  world.
• 5:56
  And
• 5:56
  look
• 5:56
  at
• 5:56
  the
• 5:56
  result.
• 5:58
  They
• 5:58
  return
• 5:58
  to
• 5:59
  Jerusalem.
• 5:59
  It
• 5:59
  says,
• 6:00
  bursting
• 6:01
  with
• 6:01
  joy.
• 6:01
  No,
• 6:02
  burdened,
• 6:03
  not
• 6:03
  anxious.
• 6:04
  Joyful.
• 6:05
  And
• 6:05
  the
• 6:05
  blessing
• 6:07
  did
• 6:07
  this
• 6:08
  work.
• 6:09
  My
• 6:09
  wife
• 6:09
  and
• 6:09
  I
• 6:10
  were
• 6:10
  out
• 6:10
  on
• 6:10
  a
• 6:11
  hike
• 6:11
  recently
• 6:11
  in
• 6:11
  a
• 6:11
  wooded
• 6:12
  trail
• 6:13
  and
• 6:15
  along
• 6:15
  the
• 6:15
  trail
• 6:15
  there
• 6:16
  was
• 6:16
  a
• 6:16
  clearing
• 6:18
  and
• 6:18
  just
• 6:18
  some
• 6:19
  beautiful
• 6:19
  flowers
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  some
• 6:20
  beautiful
• 6:20
  things
• 6:20
  there.
• 6:20
  A
• 6:20
  stunning
• 6:21
  view.
• 6:22
  It's
• 6:22
  kind
• 6:22
  of
• 6:22
  like
• 6:22
  the
• 6:22
  whole
• 6:23
  hike
• 6:23
  have
• 6:23
  been
• 6:23
  kind
• 6:23
  of
• 6:23
  building
• 6:24
  towards
• 6:25
  that
• 6:26
  something
• 6:26
  which
• 6:27
  we
• 6:27
  weren't
• 6:27
  really
• 6:27
  expecting
• 6:28
  but
• 6:28
  it
• 6:28
  was
• 6:28
  beautiful.
• 6:29
  This
• 6:30
  passage
• 6:30
  from
• 6:30
  the
• 6:30
  Gospel
• 6:31
  of
• 6:31
  Luke
• 6:31
  is
• 6:31
  kind
• 6:31
  of
• 6:31
  like
• 6:32
  that.
• 6:32
  It's
• 6:33
  been
• 6:33
  building
• 6:33
  towards
• 6:34
  this
• 6:35
  concluding
• 6:36
  moment
• 6:37
  and
• 6:37
  it
• 6:38
  ends
• 6:38
  not
• 6:38
  with
• 6:38
  drama
• 6:39
  or
• 6:39
  disaster,
• 6:40
  but
• 6:40
  with
• 6:40
  a
• 6:40
  blessing
• 6:40
  and
• 6:41
  joy
• 6:41
  and
• 6:41
  praise.
• 6:42
  That's
• 6:42
  kind
• 6:43
  of
• 6:43
  the
• 6:43
  trail
• 6:43
  that
• 6:43
  Luke
• 6:44
  takes
• 6:44
  us
• 6:44
  on.
• 6:45
  He's
• 6:46
  been
• 6:46
  walking
• 6:46
  down
• 6:46
  with
• 6:46
  us.
• 6:47
  So
• 6:48
  let's
• 6:48
  talk
• 6:48
  about
• 6:48
  an
• 6:48
  action,
• 6:49
  a
• 6:49
  step
• 6:49
  that
• 6:49
  you
• 6:49
  can
• 6:49
  take.
• 6:50
  It's
• 6:51
  simple.
• 6:52
  Bless
• 6:52
  someone
• 6:52
  on
• 6:52
  your
• 6:53
  way
• 6:53
  out
• 6:53
  today.
• 6:55
  Like
• 6:55
  the
• 6:55
  last
• 6:55
  word
• 6:56
  you
• 6:56
  say
• 6:56
  to
• 6:56
  somebody
• 6:57
  as
• 6:57
  you're
• 6:57
  leaving
• 6:57
  a
• 6:57
  room
• 6:57
  or
• 6:58
  leaving
• 6:58
  a
• 6:58
  home
• 6:59
  or
• 6:59
  leaving
• 7:00
  a
• 7:00
  conversation
• 7:00
  on
• 7:01
  the
• 7:01
  phone,
• 7:02
  just
• 7:03
  give
• 7:03
  him
• 7:03
  a
• 7:04
  word
• 7:04
  of
• 7:04
  encouragement,
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  blessing,
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  kind
• 7:06
  thing
• 7:06
  to
• 7:06
  say
• 7:07
  or
• 7:08
  some
• 7:08
  act
• 7:08
  or
• 7:09
  word
• 7:09
  of
• 7:09
  genuine
• 7:10
  love.
• 7:11
  Don't
• 7:11
  let
• 7:11
  your
• 7:12
  exit
• 7:12
  be
• 7:13
  complaining
• 7:13
  or
• 7:14
  a
• 7:14
  critique
• 7:15
  or
• 7:15
  even
• 7:15
  a
• 7:15
  click
• 7:15
  of
• 7:16
  the
• 7:16
  phone
• 7:16
  or
• 7:16
  something
• 7:16
  like
• 7:16
  that.
• 7:17
  Make
• 7:17
  it
• 7:18
  a
• 7:18
  blessing.
• 7:18
  If
• 7:18
  Jesus,
• 7:19
  if
• 7:20
  Jesus
• 7:20
  thought
• 7:20
  it
• 7:20
  was
• 7:20
  important
• 7:21
  enough
• 7:21
  to
• 7:22
  be
• 7:22
  his
• 7:22
  final
• 7:22
  act
• 7:23
  on
• 7:23
  earth,
• 7:24
  maybe
• 7:24
  we
• 7:24
  should
• 7:24
  take
• 7:25
  it
• 7:25
  seriously
• 7:25
  enough
• 7:26
  in
• 7:27
  our
• 7:27
  life
• 7:28
  and
• 7:28
  just
• 7:29
  our
• 7:29
  everyday
• 7:29
  life
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  give
• 7:31
  somebody
• 7:31
  a

• 7:31
  too.

  Well,

  Just

  God,

  a

  way
• 7:55
  to

  a

  blessing
• 7:57
  that
• 7:57
  hasn't
• 7:58
  stopped.
• 7:59
  We
• 7:59
  want
• 7:59
  to
• 7:59
  live
• 7:59
  like
• 8:00
  the
• 8:00
  people
• 8:00
  who
• 8:00
  are
• 8:00
  still
• 8:00
  being
• 8:01
  blessed
• 8:01
  even
• 8:02
  when
• 8:02
  we
• 8:02
  can't
• 8:03
  see
• 8:03
  you
• 8:03
  in
• 8:03
  the
• 8:03
  way.
• 8:03
  We
• 8:04
  wish
• 8:04
  we
• 8:04
  could.
• 8:05
  Help
• 8:05
  us
• 8:05
  carry
• 8:05
  that
• 8:06
  blessing
• 8:06
  into
• 8:06
  every
• 8:06
  room
• 8:07
  we
• 8:07
  enter
• 8:07
  and
• 8:07
  every
• 8:08
  conversation
• 8:08
  we
• 8:08
  have.
• 8:09
  And
• 8:09
  expand
• 8:10
  our
• 8:10
  understanding
• 8:10
  of
• 8:10
  all
• 8:11
  nations
• 8:11
  and
• 8:12
  make
• 8:12
  it
• 8:12
  bigger
• 8:13
  than
• 8:13
  we're
• 8:13
  comfortable
• 8:14
  with.
• 8:14
  Because
• 8:14
  we
• 8:14
  know
• 8:14
  your
• 8:15
  love
• 8:15
  is
• 8:15
  bigger
• 8:15
  than

  we're

  us
• 8:17
  to

  leave
• 8:18
  people
• 8:18
  better

  we
• 8:19
  found
• 8:19
  them
• 8:20
  and
• 8:20
  to
• 8:20
  fill
• 8:20
  us
• 8:21
  with

  that

  same

  ridiculous

• 8:25
  walking

  back
• 8:25
  to
• 8:26
  Jerusalem.
• 8:27
  We
• 8:27
  could
• 8:27
  really
• 8:28
  use
• 8:28
  some
• 8:28
  of
• 8:28
  that
• 8:28
  today,
• 8:29
  couldn't
• 8:29
  we?
• 8:30
  Thank
• 8:30
  you
• 8:30
  for
• 8:30
  not

  leaving
• 8:31
