1
00:00:00.140 --> 00:00:02.334
The gravity of mediocrity.

2
00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:05.470
The ever-present pull to settle for good enough.

3
00:00:06.049 --> 00:00:07.832
To leave excellence on the table.

4
00:00:08.420 --> 00:00:10.737
To leave our best efforts in the chamber.

5
00:00:11.550 --> 00:00:13.687
Showing up without showing up.

6
00:00:14.249 --> 00:00:15.094
Comfort.

7
00:00:15.144 --> 00:00:15.994
Coping.

8
00:00:16.052 --> 00:00:16.902
Conforming.

9
00:00:17.336 --> 00:00:18.186
As husbands.

10
00:00:18.321 --> 00:00:19.171
Fathers.

11
00:00:19.315 --> 00:00:20.165
Servant leaders.

12
00:00:20.658 --> 00:00:21.508
Brothers.

13
00:00:21.648 --> 00:00:23.593
Always pulling us toward less.

14
00:00:24.314 --> 00:00:25.508
Consuming our time.

15
00:00:25.857 --> 00:00:26.707
Our strength.

16
00:00:26.927 --> 00:00:27.777
Our money.

17
00:00:27.975 --> 00:00:28.825
Our influence.

18
00:00:29.500 --> 00:00:30.798
The enemy justifies it.

19
00:00:31.118 --> 00:00:32.400
Makes excuses for it.

20
00:00:32.755 --> 00:00:33.870
Even celebrates it.

21
00:00:34.430 --> 00:00:37.489
We have to recognize this gravity in ourselves first.

22
00:00:38.133 --> 00:00:39.929
Or life will just happen to us.

23
00:00:40.460 --> 00:00:41.964
And those entrusted to us.

24
00:00:42.502 --> 00:00:45.517
At the end of your life, will you regret what you held back?

25
00:00:46.171 --> 00:00:47.607
This is stewardship.

26
00:00:48.122 --> 00:00:50.421
Holding the line is resisting that gravity.

27
00:00:51.206 --> 00:00:53.490
In that resistance, we grow stronger.

28
00:00:54.232 --> 00:00:55.082
Hold the line.

29
00:00:55.812 --> 00:00:56.912
