An encouragement from you for the younger guys in the room

finding their way.

Just probably to add, the previous Archbishop of Canterbury, whom I know very well, no, I don't really, was interviewed and asked what was the biggest challenge that Christians face.
17:21
And he said something very profound.
17:22
He said, most Christians I know do not believe that they are deeply loved by God.
17:29
And I would think if to every young person and aged person, but especially if you can comprehend and wrestle with this when you're younger, that we grow, we are loved before we perform.
17:43
We are loved before we're useful.

I promise to keep myself together.

The five tips.
18:51
Yes.
18:54
Look, and I am one dimension of that, but I think for myself it's certainly being okay not having to be the smartest person in the room.
19:04
I recognize that a whole bunch of people are way more gifted, way smarter than me, and being okay with that, I think that creates an environment for growth.
19:17
It creates an environment for people to take a risk.
19:19
That's good.
19:20
I think as a leadership team, we have too often we've created too many risk adverse because we've seen failure as final and we've seen this as weakness.
24:21
And so is there anything you can speak into currently of what you would see as like here's a bus opportunity?
