[PASTOR MIKE NOVOTNY]
Don't forget about the
Holy Spirit.
Learn more from Pastor
Jeske of why the Holy
Spirit is so important for
your faith.
[MUSIC]
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
How many of you
know the name Christina
Rossetti?
Does that name ring a bell
to anybody?
She was a poet in England
in the Victorian era.
"Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I, but
when the trees bow down
their heads the wind is
passing by."
How true!
You cannot see wind; you
just see its effect on the
things around it.
In fact, Christina
Rossetti, I think,
partially stole her ideas
for that little poem from
some words of Jesus.
In John 3, Jesus told some
very puzzled people the
Holy Spirit blows like the
wind wherever he pleases.
You can't see it; you only
see the effects.
You see the effect that
the Spirit has on people.
And it pleases the Spirit
to be so quiet and
indirect.
I don't pray directly to
the Holy Spirit a lot and
I think one of the reasons
- I think there's two main
reasons; probably more
than that - but there's
two main reasons for that.
One, of course, is the
Spirit's really hard to
visualize.
Who has seen the wind?
And you know what else?
Here's the second reason
why I admit that I don't
often pray directly to the
Spirit as I might, and in
fact, I would like to.
And that's I haven't heard
his voice in the
Scripture.
We've heard the Father's
voice: "This is my son
whom I love; in him I am
well-pleased," he boomed
out from heaven.
The Father's voice is all
over; you can hear him
talking to you.
Jesus' voice is really all
over the Bible.
In fact, you open the
gospels and it's a sea of
red ink.
But there is very little
in Scripture where it says
directly, "and the Spirit
said."
The book of Revelation
probably has the most.
The letters to the seven
churches are in the voice
of the Spirit and the very
ending of the Bible has
the Spirit's voice saying
one word to you.
In fact, it summarizes his
mission.
The Spirit and the bride
say, "Come."
We do hear the Spirit's
voice; just not coming to
us quite in the way we
think.
The wind passing through
the trees is talking to
us.
Would you open your Bible
or uncrate your mobile
device to 2 Timothy 3 and
I'd like to read that last
paragraph with you.
I'd invite you to think of
yourself in paradoxical
terms like Paul; both
humble - Paul had started
his religious activity as
an adult, as a persecutor
of Christianity.
How did he ever forget the
shame of what a jerk and
an idiot he was in his
younger years?
That kept his tongue soft.
But he also was aware that
God was using him and he
gives Timothy nine things
to imitate in his life.
"You, however, know all
about my teaching."
Keep it going.
Don't let it stop.
"My way of life."
The tone I use when I
explain the gospel to
people.
My flexibility of meeting
people where they're at.
"My patience" in
explaining things in
language they will
understand.
Number three: "My
purpose."
I want my mission to be
your mission and
articulate that clearly.
Number four: "My faith."
Patience is a hard thing
to learn.
Paul's older years have
taught him that not
everything happens right
away.
That sometimes you dig and
dig and dig and you plant
and plant and plant and
water and water and water
and sometimes, it's years
or even decades before
there's a harvest, there's
a crop growing up there.
Number six: "Love."
As God has loved us,
having an attitude of
unconditional love toward
people that you don't
pre-judge them; that you
simply show God's love and
let people know they're
valuable first.
You don't try to tune
people up and straighten
them out and fix all their
dysfunctions of life
before you share the
gospel.
You share the gospel
first.
Number eight and nine:
"Persecutions and
sufferings."
Man, what happened to me
in Antioch!
He was driven out of
Antioch and expelled.
And Iconium; there was a
plant to stone them and
they had to leave town
early.
"Lystra," Timothy's
hometown, Paul literally
was stoned.
He was left for dead.
He was surrounded by
people who thought they
had killed him.
What do you - what do you
suppose that experience
was like as the rocks and
stones are slamming into
your body?
"But the Lord rescued me
from all of them.
In fact, everyone who
wants to live a godly life
in Christ will be
persecuted, while evil men
and women and imposters
will go from bad to worse,
deceiving and being
deceived.
Everyone who wants to live
a godly life in Christ
Jesus will be persecuted."
That's our life, too!
"But as for you, continue
in what you've learned and
become convinced of
because you know those
from whom you learned it."
You might think well,
there he means Paul and
that'd be true.
Did I not demonstrate to
you from my character and
the way I lived that I was
authentic?
I was not manipulating
people.
I was here to give you
things from God's word;
not to take from you.
I didn't use you; I was
God's broker to give you
things.
But as he's saying,
"Remember from whom you
heard it."
He wasn't referring just
to Paul.
You know who else he was
referring to?
"From infancy you have
known the Holy Scriptures,
which are able to make you
wise for salvation through
faith in Christ Jesus."
And this is where Timothy
heard the word of God for
the first time.
And it's a shocking word!
Where did he first hear
about God's love for him?
On his mother's lap.
In high school?
No.
Middle school?
No.
Primary school?
No. Kindergarten?
Earlier than that!
Toddlerhood?
Nope, earlier than that.
From [Audience: infancy].
That was so lame I'm going
to give you another chance
to do it again because you
need to - you have to wrap
your brain around this!
Where did he first become
connected to his Lord?
From [Audience: infancy].
Still pretty bad but I'm
going to let you get away
with that.
From infancy!
He met his God held close
in his mother's arms where
she had that good food
that made him feel so
good.
His mother's smell; she
had the momma smell that
made him feel safe.
The warmth, physical
warmth, of that embrace.
Her murmur of her voice is
where he learned about God
and the Spirit of the Lord
worked through her and
converted his heart
through the word of God.
And you might say, "Man,
you can't grasp anything
about God until you're in
high school, at least."
Not according to this
verse: "From infancy you
have known the Holy
Scriptures."
Bit by bit, the Spirit
touched his heart and
converted him.
"How from infancy you've
known the Holy
Scriptures," and what can
they do?
"They are able to make you
wise for salvation through
faith in Christ Jesus."
They are powerful enough -
it is enough to be the
connector to the Savior
whose blood has washed us
clean and whose love
promises us the
forgiveness, the favor of
God, and immortality that
you and I crave and must
have; that we cannot
generate for ourselves.
From infancy, thank you
Eunice.
Thank you, Lois.
And now, their love was
being passed on to Timothy
and through Timothy to
many other people.
We almost nothing about
his spiritual activities;
perhaps he will have
stories to tell us in
heaven.
Why is that power there
and how does it get there?
How do we become
believers?
Verse 16 has the answer:
"Because all Scripture is
God-breathed."
[Pastor: Blows air].
The breath of the Lord in
the pages of Scripture is
the Holy Spirit and that's
how you do hear the
Spirit's voice because
everything in the Bible is
the Spirit talking to you.
The Spirit is the inspirer
of the word.
Peter wrote: "Men spoke
from God as they were
carried along by the Holy
Spirit" to guarantee the
content that's in there.
Don't be fooled that it
has human authors; the
content is provided and
guaranteed by God.
It provides the authority
so that you don't have to
say, "Well yeah, Paul said
that but who is he?
Some chauvinistic dude
from the first century?
That was then; this is
now."
No, it has not only the
content you need, it has
the authority you need to
put your trust in and
essentially step out over
the cliff and know that
there's a pathway there
for you to walk on.
It gives you a rock solid
foundation for the faith
in things you cannot see.
That's why this is such a
big deal; the Spirit
guarantees the content.
The Spirit guarantees the
authority.
And the Spirit guarantees
the usefulness of it.
Not only does it connect
you to Christ, but it's
useful!
Useful for four things:
"Teaching."
Not suggestions but
helping people, especially
children from young on,
know why they exist and
the reason for their
existence.
"Rebuking;" that you can
tell the difference
between right and wrong.
"Correcting;" that you can
show the better way to
live; the way of God.
As Paul mentioned those
nine things at the
beginning of this
paragraph, live like this;
only the Scripture can
tell you that.
Otherwise, people grope
around on their own and
they have to come up with
their own value system.
That word "value,"
absolutely drives me crazy
because just saying,
"Well, those are my
values," means absolutely
nothing.
That just means that's
what I want or that's what
I like.
What if one of my
corporate values is charge
as much as you can get
away with?
What if one of my personal
values is it's not a lie
if you don't get caught?
What if one of my values
is make as much money as
you can as fast as you can
and don't worry who gets
hurt in the process.
That's a value, isn't it?
That's somebody's
operating philosophy of
life.
The word "value" is a
nothing word; it just
means whatever you want in
life.
Scripture helps you align
with God's values.
God's values are
everything.
What you and I may come up
with, we might be so -
have our heads so screwed
on backwards we don't even
know how abusive or
hurtful we're being.
God's values are good for
people.
They're good for
"correcting and then
training in
righteousness."
Why?
Not only so we can get to
heaven someday, which is a
big deal, but that we have
usefulness right here and
now so that men and women
of God may be "thoroughly
equipped for every good
work."
So the Scripture not only
helps you understand where
you came from, helps
connect you, reconnect you
to God, re-sever - reknit
up that severed connection
- but it also gives you
something to do other than
view planet earth as a
gigantic waiting room
where you sit around
killing time waiting to go
to heaven.
You've got work to do
right now.
And the church is at its
best not when it hides in
a cave waiting for like
the nuclear holocaust to
blow over, trying just to
survive and take care of
myself.
But rather, to think of
ourselves as medics in a
MASH unit where we are
rescuing the wounded, the
carnage and wreckage from
Satan's trashing of the
human race, where we are
the litter bearers and the
ambulance drivers to help
the wounded and help them
find healing and give them
some hope and get them out
of danger and bring them
back and start patching
them up.
That is when the church
and we, as individuals,
are at our best; when we
are confident in the power
of this message.
Because the Spirit is
talking to us with
information we need, with
the authority and
certainty that we need,
and with the power to be
useful.
For even though these are
God's words, when they
come out of your mouth
they're still God's words.
When you speak God's
words, they cease to be
just your words; they are
God's words, too.
So what?
Let me wrap this up with
three Pentecost challenges
for you today to honor the
Holy Spirit and to help
him in his sales work, you
might say; to help him in
his customer interface.
Number one: Appreciate
what has been done for
you.
You didn't make yourself a
believer; you were a mess
that got rescued, no
matter what age.
And it's a miracle at any
age.
You might say it's
miraculous that someone
from infancy could hear
the Scriptures and get the
slightest thing out of it.
I'll say yes, it is a
miracle!
But you know what else is
a miracle?
A grown-up coming to faith
because by the time you're
a grown-up, you've got a
hundred great excuses to
blow this off and do
something else.
It's a miracle to be
converted at any age,
including - I told you
before about the guy;
still can't get this image
out of my head; I cannot
un-see this - the guy I
baptized at age 75 in his
hospital bed who died
three days later.
That's cutting it a little
close; I don't advise
that.
[Audience: Laughter] But
it's a miracle at any age.
Appreciate that miracle
and thank the Spirit
today.
Envision talking to the
flame or talking to the
bird; whatever works for
you.
Or just send it up care of
the Holy Trinity and the
prayers will get home and
thank him for that.
Second, continue in it!
It's hard to be a witness
for the Lord if you don't
know what you're talking
about.
Continue in what you have
been taught, Paul wrote to
Timothy.
You've been to my personal
traveling seminary but you
need to stay in the word
so the Spirit can keep
talking to you.
As a correction on you,
the word of God calls us
back, rebukes us when
we're being stupid,
corrects us and sets us on
our right path and trains
us in righteous thinking
to get the right tone and
the right way to speak to
one another.
Continue in that word;
don't give it up.
Do what you're doing right
now; be in the word.
Be in it personally; be in
it in small groups.
And thirdly, continue to
use it and have no fear.
The fact that you may
experience some rejection
should just make you
smile.
Remember, people's problem
is not with you; it's with
your Boss.
You're just the messenger;
don't shoot the messenger.
And the only reason you
would ever speak any words
of the gospel to someone
is because you love them
and you'd like to spend
eternity with them.
You're not trying to
manipulate people or get
more paying customers for
your congregation.
It's because you would
like to enjoy eternity
with people and that
eternity comes through the
work of the Holy Spirit
who uses word and washing
to reconnect the lost with
him.
Come, Holy Spirit!
Live in our hearts and be
on our tongues today and
always, Amen.
[MUSIC]
[PASTOR MIKE NOVOTNY]
Thanks, Pastor
Jeske, for those great
words about the Holy
Spirit.
I remember a few years ago
teaching a Bible class on
the Holy Spirit when a man
who was brand new to
church looked at me and
said, "I kind of feel bad
for the Spirit." It's like
God gets all this glory
and Jesus gets all that
credit and, well in his
words, the Holy Spirit was
like the bass player in
the band; necessary but
easily forgotten.
But what if we didn't
treat the Spirit that way?
What if we talked to the
Spirit today?
What if we prayed directly
and personally to the
Spirit?
What if we asked the
Spirit to produce in us
what only he can: The
fruit of love and of joy
and of peace and of
gentleness and respect and
self-control.
Let's join together in
worshipping, not just the
Father and the Son, but
the Holy Spirit, too.
I'll be back with you in a
moment to pray.
[PROMOTION] "Gail - she
has some problems, some
issues - and with
understanding certain
things and this is why I
see her learning from Time
of Grace." "I grew up with
no church so it was kind
of hard for me to
understand.
I didn't know the Bible at
all; I was totally lost.
Pastor Jeske makes it
easier to understand."
"Knowing that Jesus is her
Savior is very evident in
Gail's heart." Because of
the generosity from
supporters like you, Time
of Grace can provide
encouraging
gospel-centered broadcasts
and this month any gift
you give will be worth
twice as much thanks to a
new $100,000 challenge
grant opportunity.
To thank you for your gift
today to help meet this
challenge, we'll send you
a copy of our newest book
by Pastor Dave Scharf;
"Our Father, Harnessing
the Power of the Lord's
Prayer." Receive your copy
when you give by calling
the number on your screen.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
We here at Time of Grace
have been so blessed by
your prayers, your
support, your kindness,
and your love.
Our team, and those who
work so passionately
behind the scenes, we
really thrive on the
feedback that we hear from
you; how God is really
touching your life and
changing your heart
through the words and the
message that we share each
week.
So for all of you who have
supported what we do,
thank you so much!
And if God has touched
your life, we would love
to continue to have your
support.
Your generous offerings,
the prayers that you pray
- we want to see this
message reach more lives
and see the Spirit change
more hearts than ever
before.
So would you join me in
going to the Holy Spirit
himself today in a word of
prayer?
Dear Holy Spirit, Without
you, none of us could see
Jesus.
We couldn't see how
merciful, how gracious,
how forgiving and how
amazing he is.
We would try to impress
you with our own works
instead of relying the
great things that he has
already done for us at the
cross.
We would think that
getting to heaven was a
ladder that we needed to
climb instead of a gift
that you'd just given in
Jesus' name.
And so, we thank you for
doing what we can't.
We thank you for creating
faith and we thank you for
keeping faith alive in our
hearts.
And now, Holy Spirit, we
ask you to do something
even more: To make us the
most loving people on our
block, the gentlest people
in our family, the most
respectful and
self-controlled and giving
people in our community.
We just don't want to call
on the name of Jesus and
stay inside our homes; we
want to go out into this
world and show them the
amazing glory of God.
So help us, Holy Spirit.
Free us from our sins and
fill us with the fruit of
the Spirit, as the apostle
Paul talks about in your
word.
We ask all these things
humbly - not because we're
good and we deserve it -
but because you're good
and you love to answer
these prayers.
So we come to you, Spirit,
all in Jesus' name, Amen.
With Time of Grace, I'm
Pastor Mike Novotny, and
it all starts now.
[MUSIC]
[PROMOTION -
PASTOR MARK JESKE] What a
pleasure it's been to be a
big part of Time of Grace
for 18 years.
It seems like a really
long time and yet, it
seems like it's gone very
fast.
We would never have been
able to build up such a
mass media ministry
without you and I want to
thank you for all your
love and support; your
prayers and encouragement.
Together with you, we have
been able to reach many
hundreds of thousands,
millions of people, with
all the different ways in
which Time of Grace is
able to communicate.
It's very, very important
to me that Time of Grace
not be limited to my
ability to continue to do
these things and be
limited to my work life.
It's very important to me
that Time of Grace will
have a second act.
That's why I'm thrilled to
be here at The Core today
and it's going to be my
joy to introduce you to
Pastor Mike Novotny.
Mike is here at The Core
with me today and he's
going to give me a little
tour.
After Easter of 2019, Mike
will become our chief
television speaker and I'm
absolutely thrilled to
introduce him to you today
and help you get to know
him better.
Mike is a very wonderful
speaker; has deep
scriptural knowledge.
And it's a thrill for me
that Mike will be our
leader in the second act
of Time of Grace.
Thank you for inviting me
today, Mike.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Thanks, Pastor Jeske.
Great to have you here!
Can I show you The Core?
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] I
would love to see that.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Yeah, we're honored to
have you here after
everything you've done for
Time of Grace.
So let me show you the
space where we worship
Jesus.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Alright! [PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Come on inside!
Well, Pastor Jeske,
welcome to The Core.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] Thank
you. [PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Yes, this is our church; a
place that I've come to
love over the past four
years.
It actually used to be an
old bar and dance club.
Can you believe that?
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
[Laughter] [PASTOR MICHAEL
NOVOTNY] I invited some
people in town to church
here and I remember one
guy said to me, "I used to
drink there!"
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
[Laughter] So you're a
different kind of
bartender, huh?
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
[Laughter] Very much.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] You've
got food for eternal life.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Yeah, the water of life.
The water of life, you'd
say.
Yeah, so Sunday nights,
I've been here four years
as a pastor now.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] Hmm.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
And you've been at
St. Marcus how many?
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Thirty-eight.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Thirty-eight years; that's
amazing.
I've got a couple years to
go. [PASTOR MARK JESKE]
[Laughter] [PASTOR MICHAEL
NOVOTNY] [Laughter] Yeah,
we're pretty excited about
worship here.
We have like this really
great mix of long-time
Christians like you and I,
and people who are brand
new to faith, and people
who have dropped out of
church, and people who
have no clue about Jesus.
So just like you know from
media ministry, we get to
speak to a whole broad
audience of people, which
is such an honor.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] Yeah.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Yeah. Well, as long as you're
here, do you mind if we
take a second and get to
know each other a bit?
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] I
would love to.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Awesome. Let's do it.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] I've
heard you refer to your
five principles.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Ah, yeah.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] What
is that? [PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Two of them that drive me
are transparency and
family.
You kind of sense it with
our social media culture
that people are maybe more
open.
I mean, even those younger
than me and younger than
you, online, we share
things that are pretty
shocking compared to what
our parents and
grandparents might have
shared.
And there's just kind of
this new idea that it's
maybe more okay to be
real, to be vulnerable,
and to be honest and I've
kind of noticed that as a
pastor.
I'm not sure if you've had
this experience; that when
people walk into a church,
they just automatically
assume that this is a
place for good people to
get better instead of for
sinners to be saved.
I love that passage in
Romans 7 where Paul says,
"I'm a wretched man.
Who's going to save me?
The stuff I hate, I keep
on doing." He's so real
there and we love Paul
because of that.
We know that if God can
save that guy, he can save
me, too.
And then family.
I know you're passionate
about your family, your
marriage, your children.
And I've heard so many
stories of people who get
so caught up in their
careers that they miss
this great calling that
God has given to them.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Hmm-hmm.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
And when I look around our
community and even in our
church, so many families
are struggling, so many
kids don't have a mom and
a dad and so, I've always
really wanted to model
what's it like to be a
great husband, a great
dad, to give my kids a
little glimpse of our
Father in heaven because I
think if our families are
strong in our church, like
1,000 other things are
going to take care of
themselves.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] Hmm.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY] I
mean, how much would you
pay if every dad in your
church was praying with
his kids and with his wife
and, you know, passionate
about the gospel?
Clarity.
I found that even
long-time church people,
they would be so filled
with joy and peace if they
just understood some of
those really commonly
used, but maybe unclear,
biblical words.
And this is what I really
love about your teaching -
I mean, everyone who knows
you knows that you have a
ton of knowledge.
I mean, your knowledge of
history is just off the
charts, crazy.
I don't know how you fit
all that in your brain
[Laughter].
But the way that you
explain that to people, just
those simple biblical
words, that's when it gets
to the heart and it really
excites us.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Hmm-hmm.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
So whenever I'm preaching
and whenever I'm doing a
reading, I never want to
assume that people know
what "saved" even means or
what is "forgiveness."
What does it mean that
we're "redeemed" or that
Jesus and the Holy Spirit
"sanctify" us.
So if we can really make
it clear what the
Scripture's saying, man,
that's when the word gets
to the heart and lives
really get changed.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE] I like
it.
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Yeah, I referenced it a
little bit before: Just a
passion for people who
don't know Jesus.
So much is going on in the
church with Bible studies
and fellowship and visits
that we could work 100
hours a week just with our
church family.
So I've always tried to
intentionalize thinking
about people who aren't
here just yet.
I've play in a soccer
league here in our city
and I meet so many guys
who they have no clue
about the gospel.
I don't know if they ever
heard it?
There's one guy who said
he caught Time of Grace.
He said, "Hey, I saw you
on TV the other day.
It was like six in the
morning!"
And I said, "Oh, yeah?"
He said, "Yeah, I was
still out drinking."
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
[Laughter] [PASTOR MICHAEL
NOVOTNY] So he wasn't
starting his day; he was
ending - [PASTOR MARK
JESKE] Ending his previous
day [laughter].
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
You know, we all kind of
laughed and he pauses and
he says, "So Mike, do you
think a guy like me could
make it to heaven?"
And I think about this guy
- he asked this in front
of like two whole soccer
teams - and everyone gets
quiet and they look at me
and I think about all
these people who are like
my teammates and they're
our neighbors and they're
walking past our churches
and maybe they've never
heard.
Maybe they just think
Christianity is about
being good and God will be
good to you; it's this
kind of karma idea instead
of just pure grace and
timeless truth.
So I've always tried to
keep my eyes fixed on the
lost.
Does that waitress know
Jesus?
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Hmm-hmm. [PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
Does this person I'm
paying at the gas station
know Jesus?
I just want to pray
passionately and never
want to lose that kind of
outward focus of the great
commission.
My fifth is really about
not just reading or
hearing the word of God
but meditating on it until
it gets down to your
heart.
So in our home, we call
this "chew first." [PASTOR
MARK JESKE] [Laughter]
[PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
So before we get caught up
on screens and video games
and bedtime stories, first
we're going to put the
word of God - but we're
not just going to read it,
you know, ramble through
it and say our common
prayer - we're going to
chew on it.
Because when you do,
there's so much treasure
in there, right?
That's what I love about
technology and media.
To go back and here it a
second time or a third
time or even a fourth time
because the Spirit just
speaks and it becomes not
just grasping the point
but it really gets down
and becomes beautiful,
powerful, and it compels
us to live different
lives.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Hmm-hmm. [PASTOR MICHAEL NOVOTNY]
So yeah, put those all
together - meditation,
passion for family,
clarity when I'm teaching,
focus on the lost, and
transparency; being really
honest - that's really
what drives me in what I
do at home and,
especially, here at
church.
[PASTOR MARK JESKE]
Thanks, Pastor Mike.
Now I guess you see why we
like him so much and are
absolutely thrilled that
Mike will be our message
deliverer going forward.
We'll be back next week
with some more personal
information telling us
about Pastor Mike and his
family, his passions, and
the type of ministry that
he brings and the messages
he'll be bringing to you
each week.

Serena Williams withdraws from Rogers Cup for personal reasons - Duration: 2:37.
Serena Williams withdraws from Rogers Cup for personal reasons
10 days ago, world number 26 and the 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams has taken the wild card for the Rogers Cup, aiming to play there for the first time since 2015 when she lost in the semis to Belinda Bencic, but she was forced to withdraw for personal reasons, as was announced by Tennis Canada.
The 36-year-old has suffered the worst defeat of her career this week in San Jose, losing 12 straight games against Johanna Konta, and she wasn't ready to play Montreal and Cincinnati in back-to-back weeks.
Serena has played only five tournaments so far in 2018, reaching the final at Wimbledon and entering the Top 30 again despite a loss to Angelique Kerber in straight sets.
Tatjana Maria will replace Serena in the main draw and we will have to wait and see her decision about playing in Cincinnati and the US Open.
Serena had missed almost the entire 2017 season due to pregnancy and the birth of her daughter and she is on the comeback trail, aiming to return to the top and win more Majors title before the end of her career.
"Of course, we are disappointed that Serena will not be joining us.
Fans were very much looking forward to seeing her in action," said Eugène Lapierre, tournament director of Rogers Cup presented by National Bank.
"But beyond the disappointment, the tournament, as a whole, remains a high-level competition.
The entire Top 10 is here, along with 22 of the Top 25.
There are exciting matches in store from the outset.".

5 Best Fruits for Liver and Kidney Health - Duration: 7:41.
5 Best Fruits for Liver and Kidney Health
Want to know how you can take better care of the health of your liver and kidneys? First of all, the most important thing is that you lead a healthy lifestyle.
Following a smart diet that limits your salt and fat intake is an essential component of that.
Getting regular exercise, quitting smoking, and managing your emotions are additional factors that you need to keep in mind.
But nature also offers a little assistance for your liver and kidney health that you can't do without: fruits.
In today's article we'll find out what the best fruits are to help us take care of our liver and kidneys.
So keep reading!.
1,Watermelon.
Watermelon…who doesn't love watermelon? It's that light, delicious fruit that's so refreshing in the summertime and mixes nicely with other juices – it can even be added to lunches and dinners.
Have you ever tried making a salad with spinach, cheese, nuts, watermelon, and mint? It's divine.
But let's examine why watermelon is especially good for your liver and kidney health:.
Watermelon is one of the best fruits for cleansing the kidneys and stimulating proper liver function, thanks to its diuretic properties and ability to detox the body.
The juice from watermelon is the healthiest way to consume it because it's more quickly absorbed into the tissues and bloodstream, which further stimulates good kidney function.
Always choose fresh watermelon.
If your fruit is overripe, it can cause more problems than benefits.
2,Cranberries.
The best way to consume cranberries is through pure juice.
Aside from being delicious, cranberry juice optimizes liver, kidney, and bladder function.
Here are some of the amazing benefits of cranberries:.
Cranberries are a natural antioxidant, and one of the best fruits you can find for natural detox.
They help remove toxins, cleanse the body and bloodstream, and protect you from the effects of free radicals.
One of the most well known properties of cranberries is their ability to keep bacteria from adhering to the walls of the bladder.
Believe it or not, that helps care for your entire gastrointestinal system.
3, Lemon.
Lemons and lemon juice could be some of the best natural and medicinal things you can consume on a daily basis.
We talk a lot in this blog about the benefits of drinking lemon water on an empty stomach, but you should know that drinking lemon juice and water on an empty stomach is also an excellent way to care for the health of your liver and kidneys.
Lemons are a natural detox agent that helps treat fatty liver disease, for example.
Rich in vitamins and minerals, lemons help optimize and strengthen the functions of the liver and kidneys.
Another benefit of lemons is that they help break down food once it reaches the stomach.
In that way, they help promote good digestion.
4,Apples.
Green apples, red apples…pick any kind you want! Choose your favorite variety or just pick the best looking ones, because they're all equally good at caring for your liver and kidneys while also protecting your heart health.
Why not include a few slices of apple in your breakfast today? Apples are a great option, but make sure you also eat the peel – that's the best part!.
Apples, in addition to helping control levels of bad cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the bloodstream, also stimulate proper kidney function and help detox the liver.
You should ideally consume an apple a day for the greatest benefit, just make sure to wash it well and always eat the peel.
5,Red grapes.
Always choose the darkest color grapes.
Why? They're more rich in antioxidants and other medicinal properties than white grapes.
Red grapes are a powerful diuretic that help cleanse the kidneys and enhance the function of the liver.
As you probably already know, they're full of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, in addition to promoting the elimination of toxins and other harmful waste products from the body.
Red grapes have a very high water content, nearly 80%.
That makes them suitable for daily consumption, and just like apples you should always eat them with the skin on because a lot of the benefits come from this part of the fruit.
You can enjoy grapes so many different ways: with breakfast in your bowl of oatmeal or plain Greek yogurt, or added to a delicious salad made with spinach, nuts, cheese, and even a little watermelon if you like.
If you're wondering now whether drinking a glass of red wine a day can also be good for your liver and kidneys, the answer is yes! The benefits of red wine are derived from resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant that's found in red grapes and that, according to various studies, is excellent for treating fatty liver disease.
Just remember to limit yourself to one glass a day…everything in moderation!.

Footballers Wives coming BACK for modern re-boot? - Duration: 3:09.
Footballers Wives coming BACK for modern re-boot?
Zoe Lucker and Laila Rouass, who played Tanya Turner and Amber Gates on the ITV show Footballers Wives, discussed a possible re-boot as they were both panelists on Loose Women today.
The show, which aired from January 2012 to April 2016 was a drama surrounding the fictional Premier League football club Earls Park FC, its players, and their wives, as well as all the glitz and chaos that went with it.
Talking about the possible revival, Laila, 47, said: "We had a really good time, it was very, very glamorous." "I do [miss it] sometimes.
I think I would [go back].
"I do miss it sometimes.
I think I would go back" Laila Rouass "If it was as good as it was when we were in it, yes." Zoe, 44, then chimed in with her favourite "inappropriate" moment on the show.
She admitted she always loved the "baby swap" storyline featuring Tanya and Amber.
The actress revealed: "I very inappropriately put fake tan on her baby after stealing the baby and swapping.
"So we did that, but unfortunately my real baby got squished by her pug." Laila's favourite moment was a little less dramatic.
She divulged: "I loved when we went to Thailand.
That was really good fun – that was my first episode.".
Their co-star Gary Lucy (Kyle Pascoe) also teased a comeback for the show in a magazine interview.
Gary, 35, told Now magazine: "Maybe in some form… watch this space is all I can say.
"It was an outrageous and fantastic thing to be a part of, so a reunion may be on the cards, you'll have to wait and see.".

10 Commandments for a Young and Fit Brain - Duration: 8:12.
10 Commandments for a Young and Fit Brain
There might be gray hairs on your head, wrinkles around your eyes, and even a touch of arthritis in your hands by the time you reach a certain age.
But in spite of these signs of aging, you can still keep a young and fit brain for your entire life.
Did you think this was impossible? Not at all.
Think of your brain as a muscle that you exercise every day, giving it interesting stimuli and problems to solve that help strengthen it.
In the end, it won't matter how old you are – you'll have a young and fit brain.
Want to know how to do this?.
1,Walk for an hour every day.
We say this over and over again in our blog: walk, walk, walk, and walk some more.
Get your body moving for a while and it will help you relax, keep your heart beating strong, and give you some daily exercise at the same time.
Physical activity actually fights cognitive impairment, reduces stress, and stimulates the growth of new nerve cells in your hippocampus.
It reinforces your memory and makes you feel better emotionally.
What excuse do you have for not going out right now for a nice walk?.
2,Have a few hobbies.
Do you know how healthy having a hobby can be? Just spending a few hours a day doing something you truly love is like adding "fuel" to the brain.
It doesn't even matter what kind of task it is – it could be collecting stamps or coins, knitting, drawing, writing, caring for your pets, or tending a garden.
One of the greatest enemies of a youthful brain is a boring routine.
Doing the same things every day can seriously impair your cognitive function, so don't delay – start doing the things you love!.
3,Get proper nutrition.
Two of the brain's greatest enemies are high levels of bad cholesterol and blood sugar.
You might be surprised to find out, for example, that doctors sometimes refer to dementia as "Type III diabetes" because this neurodegenerative disease is caused by hardening of the arteries in the brain…which is caused in part by inadequate nutrition.
So always try to keep a diverse, balanced, and low-fat diet!.
4,Get plenty of fresh air.
Plenty of studies have warned of something surprising: the air you breathe in large cities can cause more than just respiratory problems.
It can raise levels of anxiety and even trigger a stroke.
Try to escape crowded urban environments whenever possible, and remember to breathe in the clean, fresh, and healthy air.
5,Get between six to eight hours of sleep a day.
Chronic insomnia is one of the brain's "mortal enemies." It can cause you to lose mental agility, to suffer from memory lapses, and trigger bouts of stress and anxiety.
Insomnia is a serious problem that must be dealt with because as important as staying both physically and mentally active are, letting your brain rest for at least six hours is equally important.
6,Do you smoke?.
We don't need to tell you that smoking is bad for you.
Smoking not only claims millions of lives per year, but also leaves many families without their loved ones.
If this is you, or if someone you love is still a smoker, get started today to stop this dangerous habit.
7,The importance of relationships.
Having a stable circle of true friends can bring you great benefits for the mind and the brain.
Your loved ones listen to you when you have a problem, encourage you when you need it, help you get out of a rut… having a good group of friends is essential to keeping your brain young and healthy.
8,Try learning something new every day!.
Be more curious about life, seek new knowledge, and learn new things every day.
Why not start your own online blog to talk about your daily experiences.
Or share some of your favorite recipes with friends to try new ones? Life is full of ways to enhance the mind and enrich your experiences, and we assure you that this will definitely help you maintain a youthful brain.
9,Stay optimistic.
fHaving a positive outlook is like taking a daily multivitamin.
It's the best medicine to keep you motivated and help you deal with the complexity of life.
Sure, on plenty of occasions you've had negative emotions that have made you want to run away, to escape from feeling discouraged or lost in a dark tunnel.
But it's not worth it.
Learn how to wake up with a smile on your face and create a healthy and simple outlook that's filled with optimism.
10,Love, and enjoy life.
If you've suffered an emotional setback, don't close your heart to the world forever.
Love is an adventure that is always worth the risk.
But don't become obsessed with finding a partner: the most important thing is to never lose the ability to love yourself and your family.
If you have children, enjoy them.
Spend time with your pets, your family, your friends around you, and always wish the best for them.
Above all, never forget to love yourself for who you are.
Having positive self-esteem is essential to keeping your brain healthy and young.
