Introducing Nick Zitzman...

The God of the Bible never holds back, even when God restrains himself… God never holds back.
Creation — speaks into darkeness
Garden — engages that which is broken and dead
The Flood — does a full scale reboot.
The patriarchs — establishes a family.
The Exodus — establishes a nation
The Judges — establishes a land
The Kings — establishes a rule
The Exile — breaks the already broken nation to prepare for the great King… the Messiah.
The baby — incarnates God’s fraility
Jesus — engages in the flesh the world and its systems.
The crucifixion — how much more “he never holds back” do you want God to be?
The resurrection — the miracle which had to happen… the reversal… all things made new.
The Spirit — God sends God personal, unlimited presence and power… to...
You and me…
Though dead in darkness, he reached down to save us...
Though enslaved with sins, he walks into our lives and frees us...
Recap and review 2 corin 3
We are transformed into the image of Jesus… and this is some of the effect of that transformation...
“We are very bold”… (3.12)
“We do not lose heart” (4.1)… but we do lose heart.
When Jesus comes into your heart, light is shining out of darkness… the dead are raised… the bound are freed...
We don’t hold back…
But when we don’t focus on the Light… the life… the freedom… we lose sight of Jesus within us by being so focused on how “Nick” we feel.
Nick Zitzman...
Clumsy… awkward… untalented…
As i was getting ready for this message, I showed this video to Jonathan… and Jonathan’s first question to me was “Dad, are you going to make fun of Nick?”
Why would I make fun of Nick?
I am Nick.
You are Nick.
I mean really… what is the only difference between Nick and you?
You are holding back and Nick is not.
You are measuring the outward parts of your life as more important for you to be mindful of than the inward parts of your life more mindful of all those looking at the outward appearance… but it is God who is looking at your heart.

The Song: Never Gonna Stop Singing
In the song, singing is a metaphor… the song is about not holding back.
About glorifying God, full on, in the midst of the many limitations that on our outside which can cause us to lose heart and hold back.
