Thank you all so much for being here with us this morning.

I know that it is hot, and as my favorite Austin weather person has said, we're actually in the middle of the third hottest July on record.

I think there's a whole slide about it that I took because it's just that hot.

And this sermon is titled The Sunday of Complaining, so this felt like a great complaint to start with today.

I am glad to be here with y'all.

For those of y'all who are new to Vox, visiting, my name is Lily, and I'm a Covenant member here that keeps getting asked back to preach, so I keep saying yes.
