Hey, welcome to Mission Hills, wherever you're joining us from, and however you're joining us, maybe one of our four campuses or online, we're so honored to have you with us today, and I wanna talk to you today about the connection between power and peace. I don't know about you, but I think it's easy to fall into the trap of thinking, if I just had a little more power, I'd have a little more peace.
Anybody else ever feel like that? If I could just do what I wanted to do, everything in life would be fine, right?

I'll have so much more peace in my life. And first off, I'm waiting for that day when I can actually do whatever I want to do. Told somebody lied to me about adulthood completely. But I remember I was like mid twenties and it occurred to me that like I, I could buy a Snickers bar whenever I wanted to.
So I was at a, I was at like Walmart and I was like they're right there. I'm just gonna buy one or two. Actually I'm gonna go ahead and buy three. I can eat 'em whatever I want. So I ate 'em all in one drive. And I regretted that almost immediately, right? Like my stomach did not have peace, even though I had the power to do what I wanted to do.
I remember when I was a youth pastor. And I remember sometimes thinking, man, if I was the lead pastor, then everything would be better because, I'm they're doing stuff I don't agree with, but I don't have the power to do anything about it. But if I were ever a lead pastor, then, I could do whatever I wanted to do and then we'd reach more people and all that stuff.
And then I became a lead pastor. And first of I'm like, whoa I need to go back and apologize to all my prev ...
