THE MAKING OF ST. ELON MUSK 

Everyone knows Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter was quite the drama. Few know the inspiring story behind it all. Tonight on IGNITE Radio Live (8P or on demand), Babylon Bee's Joel Berry shares the amusing and inspiring role they played with their new friend. In context, Joel shares the ultimate story we all share: God's life-transforming intervention in our lives through Jesus Christ. Our ultimate measure of success. The only pursuit that matters. Right now, say a little prayer that, whatever other accomplishment we may attain in life, Elon's (and ours) is punctuated by the all-consequential "St." 

This took place at our recent Belief & Beverage Night, special evenings for amazing friends who are helping us unite families in building the Kingdom. We invite you to join us. We need your help right now. Please partner with us. Donate. We're praying for 50 new partners in 90 days. Thank you. 

IGNITE 7:14 is a historic evening of prayer to heal our land taking place next Wednesday, May 3, 7PM at St. Joan of Arc (Toledo), featuring a brief, inspiring message by Peter Range, followed by Eucharistic worship led by Seph Schlueter (Sony/Provident recording artist and leader of Damascus Worship).

GOSPEL | John 10:1-10
Jesus said:
"Amen, amen, I say to you,
whoever does not enter a sheepfold through the gate
but climbs over elsewhere is a thief and a robber.
But whoever enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
The gatekeeper opens it for him, and the sheep hear his voice,
as the shepherd calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
When he has driven out all his own,
he walks ahead of them, and the sheep follow him,
because they recognize his voice.
But they will not follow a stranger;
they will run away from him,
because they do not recognize the voice of strangers."
Although Jesus used this figure of speech,
the Pharisees did not realize what he was trying to tell them.
So Jesus said again, "Amen, amen, I say to you,
I am the gate for the sheep.
All who came before me are thieves and robbers,
but the sheep did not listen to them.
I am the gate.
Whoever enters through me will be saved,
and will come in and go out and find pasture.
A thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy;
I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly."
