    In this episode, JB and Fancy Rob discuss the importance of seeking to glorify God rather than ourselves when acting in God's power. They emphasize the need to tell people about Jesus, celebrate baptism, and lead others in their faith. They also caution against seeking power with the wrong motives and trying to manipulate God for personal gain. Ultimately, they encourage listeners to seek Jesus with their whole hearts and live a life that glorifies His name.

    The guys then share the Innkeeper's Blend from the 2XO distillery and review as the feature pour. They delve into the mash bills and aging process of the Innkeeper's Blend, as well as their purchasing and tasting experiences.

    Takeaways:

    • Passion for Jesus and Scripture is essential in the Christian life.
    • Acting for God's power means seeking to glorify Him and not ourselves.
    • Telling people about Jesus and celebrating baptism are ways to glorify God.
    • Leading others in their faith is an important part of the discipleship process.
    • Bargaining with God and trying to use good deeds as bargaining chips is a form of self-glorification.
    • Using God's power and authority for personal gain is a sin and goes against the purpose of His gifts.
    • Seeking power and authority to build our own kingdom and glorify ourselves is contrary to God's plan.
    • Salvation and repentance are personal decisions that cannot be inherited or done on behalf of someone else.
