I've been preaching, I think, probably in an official sense at this church before when it was Victory Church ATL.

I think it was like sometime in like 2008.

Maybe 17.

And this is tough because it's actually easier to talk about what this value or Christian ethic is not.

It's easier to look at the opposite or the antonym because it's much more prevalent in the world and unfortunately the church.

Right?

Let's discuss it together.

Let's reason together.

You let me know if it's true.

It's easier to see the degradation of people

people being degraded.

It's easier to see disobedience.

It says in the last days, children will be disobedient to their parents.

Have you seen that or have you not?

It's easier to see numerous examples of disgrace.

Disgrace.

And in the world, in politics, state, federal, local, and even in the church, it's easier to see corruption.

And it's by a long shot, beloved.

Like, it's not even close.

Like, you scrolled, you looked on every screen in your house, on your phone, your tablet, or your TV.
