Welcome. Thank you, worship team. That was awesome. Welcome to coast. I'm a Tom and lead pastor here. It is awesome to have you all with us. We are winding down our series failing forward the life of Moses. And this week we have to come to terms with a harsh church and it's not one that we want, but it is one that we absolutely must deal with because it is what's going to happen next. What's going to happen when we go forward? And so the first thing I would like us all to do is just take a moment and think what would it take for God to do to end all of my doubts, to finally be at a place where I'm like, yes, God, you've 100% got it. All I have to do is just keep going and show up. I know that you're in control. I know that you have power to the point that. And here's where I wanted to land a little bit to the point that when the things in life that we struggle with come up, we're like, no worries. Absolutely no worries. What would it take? What would God have to do? What would he have to say? What would that be for you? And maybe it's something that you're dealing with right now, like you're coming in here today and there's something going on in your life, a relationship, something job-related, something family-related where you're like, God, if you would just do this, this one thing, and reveal yourself in this one way, then I'd know. I'd know for sure. And not only would I know for sure the situation, the internal experience I have of fear, of doubt, of concern, but sometimes anger, I'd be finally done with it, because I would know you. I would know you face to face, and I would finally be yours completely forever. What would it be? And I don't want you to, like, don't hold back. Go big. Go big here. If you're like, well, maybe God used to do amazing things in the Old Testament. He doesn't do stuff like that anymore. But if he did, that would be the moment, right? If I saw, what? I don't know, like, something undeniably miraculous, right? Maybe that's what it would be. Or something so wild that everybody on Earth, like whatever it is, go crazy in your mind and figure out what would it take? What would it take? And that would be, that would be it. And once you have that, remember this. The view is always clear on the mountain. Okay? The view is always clear on the mountain, because what we're going to see is that Moses gets exactly this. Moses gets what every single one of us longs for. And when he's there, it all makes sense. It all makes sense. So here's Exodus 34.
