TREVOR LAWRENCE WITH A POWERFUL LESSON WE ALL NEED TO LEARN (0:00-13:30)

Trevor Lawrence recently took some flack for defining success as something other than winning football games.  First, we can learn from this young man. We all tend to define success by something external: earning a certain amount of money, marrying a particular person, getting approval, power, or comfort. We let those define us, but we can learn from Lawrence here the Biblical lesson of being defined by eternal matters.

I will also compare Lawrence to another quarterback who said in the past that his winning is all that defines him. We can a learn a lot when we compare these two men.

WHAT CAN A CHRISTIAN EXPECT IN THIS WORLD? (14:10-29:00)

I’m finding some Christians think the world is terrible, it must be terrible, and we should never expect the secular world to adopt or accept Christian thinking. Conversely, there is a theology that calls on Christians to conquer the institution of society and impose the faith.

What’s the balance? What should a Christian expect in a fallen world? Victory? Defeat? Let’s talk about it.

BLM MARXIST EXPOSED (29:45-40:00ish)

One of the founders of the BLM ORGANIZATION (remember that the organization isn’t the movement or the sentence) described herself as a Marxist. Her recent real estate behavior shows she was indeed a Marxist…. Until the moment she got some money.

LEARN THIS ON POLICE SHOOTINGS: LOTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME TIME (40:00ish-50:10)

Listening to discussions about police shootings can be frustrating for me. In these uncomfortable ten minutes, I endeavor to ask you to think clearly and draw clear lines. Not all shootings are created equal.

George Floyd isn’t Ahmaud Arbery who isn’t Adam Toldeo who isn’t Tamir Rice who isn’t Daunte Wright who isn’t Breonna Taylor. Every case has its own unique fact pattern, and we would be wise to realize that.
