Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, April 11, 2021: We start out with the Silent Prayer. A remarried man and his wife talk. One lady invited herself to a party! QUESTION: Are you afraid to speak up? People talk about anxiety, pot, and dealing with angry "victim" mothers. Christians today have no power, no love. New Biblical Question: What is the greatest of evil? NOTE: APOLOGIES FOR INTERMITTENT AUDIO ISSUES!
11:05 We open up service by doing the Silent Prayer for 10 minutes or so, before inviting questions and welcoming newcomers. (You can listen to the audio of this clip via SoundCloud.)

A remarried man and his wife
11:18 A man Solomon (sp) and his wife joined us for the first time; his wife was drifting toward feminism a couple of months before hearing Jesse. At first, she had doubts about Jesse, because of him saying women having hate, and not true love. She talks about her life a bit. She had children out-of-wedlock by another man. Her 16-year-old son says he’s a homosexual, but she can see he’s taken on her spirit — she kept him too close to her. (APOLOGIES FOR THE AUDIO ISSUES WITH OUR MICS.) She and Solomon talk about how they met, seemingly set up by her mother. 11:43 Jesse urges her: Do not judge yourself. Solomon also talks about forgiving his mother. He had three adult children with his ex-wife; he got custody of them after he divorced.Stop spending your money on women!
11:46 A man talks about correcting a young woman he’s been dating — who posted a photo of herself on Instagram showing cleavage. Jesse urges men not to spend their money on women, whom they’re not married to.She invited herself!
11:49 Adriana talks about not being invited to Easter by her ex-boyfriend while her children were! So she invited herself by calling up her cousin! After she did it, she looked at herself and realized she wanted to be close to her ex. She felt she should go even though she invited herself, because she committed to bringing stuff. Jesse urged her not to go to a party by inviting herself. 12:00 Jesse asks black Victoria what she thinks. She didn’t think she was wrong for inviting herself. Victoria then says she’s needing a helper with her business. Solomon and Kelly also give their take.Are you afraid to speak up?
12:03 Who is afraid to speak up? A young man is moving out of his parents’ house to share rent with a black guy. He’s concerned his future roommate may support Black Lives Matter. He’s afraid to ask because he doesn’t want to “muddy the water” before moving in. But it’s better to do it before than after.A man with anxiety on pot
12:08 Another man has fear of speaking up, being afraid of confrontation. He lives in Marin County (near Bay Area), “Social Justice Warrior Central,” he calls it. After hearing Jesse, he moved to live with his father; before that, he lived in his car, because of expense and drinking problems. He was growing and smoking weed at some point; he grew up smoking weed, and his mother was addicted to drugs. He’s 32, and still has fear of the future and anxiety. He’s doing the Silent Prayer. Jesse urges him: Don’t judge yourself. Watch yourself when you’re doing it; be aware of yourself doing it. Don’t call yourself an addict, just know you want to overcome it. One day the light and power of God will change it. The biggest mistake we make is judging ourselves. Jesse asks: Where is the future? In the imagination: It’s not real. All you have is right now.Others with fear
12:16 A young lady talks about fear of speaking up, getting cocky, and issues with her account. She’s afraid if she speaks up she’ll lose her cool jobs that make her excited. 12:19 A third young man talks about fear in speaking up, not having enough knowledge of a subject. Even with things he knows, he feels fear. 12:20 A second woman feels she became too fearless since becoming a Trump supporter. If you see yourself getting to that point, calm down a little bit. It can become an ego thing, in which you like seeing people overreact. If you’re getting a high from it, back away from it. She feels that she has to be an activist because no one else is doing it. Jesse responds: Be aware of yourself in all things; and being aware will calm you down too. It does not mean you have to stop. But be aware so that you might not overdo things.Why they have fear: They don’t love God.
