00:00Win-win with God I have told you this, so that you might have
00:05peace in your hearts because of me.

00:31This world seems to be hurling toward destruction and the news feeds and social media ensure
00:36we know every gruesome detail.
00:39Yet people wonder why so many teens are depressed and anxious.
00:44It can be hard to believe in a good, powerful God when it seems all we see is evil and sadness.
00:50But part of the problem is we take so many good, amazing miracles for granted.
00:56The sun coming up on a new day brings hope.
00:59The very fact that we can breathe requires multiple intricate systems to work correctly,
01:04and we don't even think about it.
01:06The love of a parent or friend is more powerful than hate.
01:11And even if, or when, the worst happens, we still win.
01:16How's that?
01:17Jesus conquered death and made it possible for those who love and serve him to have everlasting
01:22life with God, the source of all good.
01:25This power that was strong enough to raise Jesus from death is the same power that lives
01:30in us when we invite Jesus into our lives.
01:34So for Christians, we win if we live and we win if we die.
01:38We don't have to fear any evil.
01:41People who completely embrace this life fearlessly and joyfully.
01:45Will you choose to embrace Jesus today?

02:00I shall have gone up higher, that is all, out of this old clay tenement into a house
02:04that is immortal.
