Episode notes
Depend On God And Act Humbly

- He uses John 3:27 and John the Baptist's words to stress dependence plus humble activity.
Be An Active Member In Your Local Church
- Do not neglect church membership because the local church provides encouragement, accountability, and places to serve others.

Center Life On The Great Commission
- Prioritize the Great Commission: go make disciples, baptize, and teach obedience because Jesus has all authority and promises presence.
