"Dad for me built a route for me in his family been visiting on Sunday mornings. On the way out the door, Bobby leaned over and he whispered in my ear, he said, well, John, please pray for my wife. I said, I have been and I will continue. And in just a little bit, here she comes and she looked at me and I could tell she was being crying, she said, I need to talk to you. I said, certainly. And I said, anytime, I said, right now, she said, yeah, right now. So I had brother clay coming in here and getting this Debbie and so we all went over there in the side in the fellowship home. And I did not know this about her, but she was raised by an orthodox Jew. And raised in a Jewish family and observed the Passover and all of that. We discovered and she told me she said, I've been really listening to all that you've had to say. And she said, I feel like if I go any further with this, I'm turning my back on what I've been raised in in my Judaism. And I said, no, no, you will never turn your back. On your Judaism, if you trust Jesus Christ, and I went from the Old Testament. We looked at as F 53, she had her Bible there and we went into Isaiah 53, and I said, look at this, what your Bible says about Jesus Christ. He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for iron equities of chastisement of our peace, was upon him and he did all this for you. And then I went into the New Testament about he was your guard, manifest, and he is your Masai. And she sat there and she listened. I mean, she was hanging on every word. Debbie lab both were back and forth with her and I said, I said, it's so very easy. If you would trust Jesus Christ, long story short, she called upon the name of Jesus Christ. Right after services holding the guest say and her husband is what is he in some kind of rehab? And they're not able to come on Sunday nights and all, but you pray for what was her name? Sydney. Her name is Sydney Smith, Barbie and Sidney Smith, but Sydney is a converted junior. I've always wanted to lead a due to the lord and had the opportunity this afternoon. And that's good news. From the far country of what the lord did in her heart today. Let's take our bibles and turn to second chapter number 6. So they can create the chapter number 6. Just a few verses of scripture that the lord has dealt with my heart about just of late in a matter of fact, in my personal Bible time, I ran up on these verses and it's not converses that I was in read normally reading, but something I was looking at led to these verses and I've read these verses and when I did it just kind of caught my attention to my heart, I went back and reread them and just try and like Zach told us this morning that when we study our Bible, we need to not just read a verse and go on to the next we need to stop and we need to meditate upon what that verse is saying to us and how it would apply to our lives and I was doing that with these three verses that were going to be reading tonight and I pray that they impact your life just as they impacted my life and pray that they're working your heart as deep as they have in my heart. This old stand on the rating of God's word in second print his chapter number 6 I'm going to begin this will not be the last time that we deal with this. I want to stay with this subject forth as many times as we need to because I feel impressed of the lord to do so and want to try to want to try to equip your life, educate and equip your life in the subject that we're going to be dealing with tonight. And I'm going to simply entitled this this thought personal evangelism, personal evangelism, and that'll be the heading of this series that we're going to be dealing with and what we're going to deal with in a more common phrase is so wind. How to lead somebody to Jesus Christ. How do you personally take the word of God by your knees with some one and lead them to the lord Jesus Christ? I believe we fail as a church a lot of times to train people in this area, and this is one of the most, as I was preaching this morning the most important thing for anybody's life is for them to be saved and know that they're safe, but we need personal workers that can sit with somebody and show them from the word of God different things from the word of God just like we did with the Sydney this afternoon being able to go into the Old Testament show her some things from the Old Testament her own Bible and show her what the word of God says about Salvation, things like that. But I want you to look with men second chapter number 6 to 9. And we'll look at some things and we'll just kind of introduce and begin this thought tonight and then we'll go from there and see what God will do for us in our hearts tonight. Looking second chapter number 6 and we may read this a few times just to get these words into our hearts tonight it says we that's all inclusive as every one of us have very first word includes every person if you're saying man. That we include you. We then as workers together with him, he's talking about Jesus Christ. We, all of us in this room tonight, as workers together with Jesus Christ, beseech you also that she received not the grace of God in vain. Now that's a powerful statement if you stop and consider that right there. If we're saved, we have received the grace of God, and he said, look, don't be of the kind that would receive the grace of God in vain. Don't be the kind that's greedy with Salvation and just get saved and that's the end of it. He said, don't be that way in your life. Then he emphasizes what he's talking about in verse number two for he said I've heard they in a time accepted and in the day of Salvation have our secret V behold now is the accepted time behold now is the day of Salvation not only does a loss person need to realize that we who are saved need to honestly understand that today is the day of Salvation for anyone that's lost. Any person who is lost without Jesus Christ, this moment, this hour, this day is their day of Salvation. Now watch this.

To this episode today we are going to be talking about voice productivity and before the show started we were talking about other things and arthur c. clarke came up in. I thought it was really interesting. So i'm i'm going to start off with this. Which is arthur c. clarke as the british science fiction author and he had these three laws That he talked about of course his third laws most known. But i thought it was interesting for a start off with kind of the other two. Which is the first law of clark. Is that when a distinguished but elderly scientists states that something is possible. He's almost certainly right when he states that something is impossible. He is very probably wrong. Number two is the only way of discovering. The limits of possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. Great for saint science fiction writer And then his third law which is his most well known law and the one that i want us to kind of Kickoff from is any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. It really conjured up something really interesting about voice productivity. Which is that just a few hundred years. There are people who would have you know kind of been burned at the stake as as sorcerers and witches and whatnot for some of the things that we can now do without ever physically touching anything and it's just remarkable that voice productivity has taken us there. We have this ability to use audio both for input output to be more productive. And i just. I find it very fascinating. And i'm looking forward to this discussion.

Underpinning it. then we're going to talk about our experiences with the eisenhower matrix and how matrices generally Can help us be more productive and then talking a little bit about one and why you should use it where where are the context in which the eisenhower matrix can work and then of course How we can blend it with other methodologies productivity methodologies that we all use in our own productive worlds so let's start out with what the eisenhower matrix or what. The eisenhower method is Is with the fact that in nineteen fifty four former. Us president dwight d eisenhower. Quoting someone else. He was actually quoting dr roscoe miller who was the president of northwestern university until so he was speaking to the second assembly of the world council of churches. It turns out and he was. He is quoted as quoting dr miller as saying quote. I have two kinds of problems. The urgent and the important. The urgent are not important and the important are never and quote. This has come to be known as the eisenhower principle or the eisenhower matrix. Many people have then mythologised that somehow eisenhower had developed this whole entire methodology around it but the reality is is that his importance and urgency Construct was was taken from someone else And while eisenhower himself was a great time management a ziada someone who really paid attention to how he used his time and had many other principles that he abided by He was not the progenitor of any specific methodology..

Let's get into our headlines for productivity articles that we've been paying attention to this week because what is our first headline. The first headline is another. From mike. Sparky title software is eating. The world on cars are next to menu and it's a commentary. An article came and wall street journal about apple getting into the out mobile business or not but it really comes with a couple of interesting arguments about really that what software is doing. And what are the risk. You know it sounds really nice to have your car not months ago. Aeronautic old really nice article talking about using tesla for assault for obey that that really update vehicle and at the same time. I was complaining. Because i was trying to get something fixed on mine. And they wanted me to do something that i wasn't going to when he was a software update. So yes suffer. It's going to continue revolutionizing all these industries and you know seems like everybody's putting their is right now in beatles and cars on how we can make them better and be a suffer but as the article mention went into be careful because software also mean bucks and hacks and other things that hey implies certain risks to this is not. This isn't new to the car world. I mean we look at things like tesla we look at things like the id force from volkswagen. The electric the electric cars are are bringing some of this thinking. Because it's like oh it's tech. It's electronic this has been around for years and years and years and so many vehicles can't be maintained unless you have a computer reader. You've got specifically licensed software. You have specific controllers and even dedicated cables to be able to interface with the car. Literally i had a car that was made in one thousand nine hundred ninety six that the engine would turn off because the computer would tell it to in specific situations. This is the type of thing that we have is the challenge. It's not so much that the tech is carrying us forward. It's that it's dragging everything else along with it. It's determining that everything needs to be tech driven. Everything needs to be computer controlled and what that winds up with is literally massive quantities of vehicles and maintenance..

The book is described on amazon pulling this from amazon description. Page it says. Do you remember the last major initiative. You watch die in your organization. Did it go down with a loud crash or was it slowly and quietly suffocated by other competing priorities. By the time it disappeared. It's likely no one even noticed what happened often. The answer is that the quote unquote whirlwind of urgent activity required to keep things running day devoured all the time and energy you needed to invest in executing your strategy for tomorrow and then it goes on to say that the four disciplines of execution can change that forever it says the four disciplines of execution forty x is a simple repeatable and proven formula for executing your most important strategic priorities in the midst of the whirlwind and that includes the four disciplines being focused on the wildly important act on lead measures keep a compelling scoreboard cadence of accountability and so with that the authors. Are chris mcchesney sean. Covey and jim fuelling. Sean covey is not only notably the son of the late dr steven covey but he is also the senior vice president of innovations and products at franklin covey and so he has been at the franklin covey company for quite a while and obviously he's the author of many other books and and obviously helps with his father's company Chris mcchesney is the global practice leader of execution for franklin covey.

"For a long time trying to come up still different ideas from other comics that i respect silly ideas from their still ideas from how they promoted commercialize or whatever and implement that myself. So you're hopefully not seeing the exact same thing every single time nice and i think it is well and there's always that question especially when i'm trying to promote things like m. i. Overstepping here and i think there is a line but i think sometimes it's difficult to tell because maybe i might be different from somebody else but i assume a certain amount of content and then there's just so much out there that going a little bit over i feel like it's better than going a little bit under in some cases because it's easy to get lost a lot of it to seeing so much out there the other thing i like to do is sometimes. I'll throw the different things out of different parts of the day just with the likes. We'll get so a lot of people will throw things up their feelings get hurt if they don't get a ton of likes on well for me. That's just me okay. Now i know that this time of day doesn't work for me or i know that this type of promotion doesn't work for me at this time of day so a lot of times is just testing things out for future shows that are coming down the road sometimes as well man. That's super smart. That's really cool. And that's another example of where you can feel like a lot of people if they don't get a lot of likes they just like. Oh no it didn't work for me but you take it a step further and you're like well that's just not the right time of day and i think the testing is a really good thing to be able to do and learn from as you're promoting as you're posting things that you want in front of people that you can learn a lot from with social media so i think that's great..

Gd with david allen and what we wanted to do was actually talk about the ultimate gt app. According to david allen back in two thousand nineteen david allen held what i'm presuming is going to be the final. Gt summit in amsterdam. And he brought together all of his rockstar. Advocates of gte. Over the years they all talked about different aspects of. Gt one of the things that david did at that time was open source basically released into the wild his own schema for what he thinks is or would be the requirements but the ultimate gd application Ultimate getting things done application and he had a detailed what he thought would work. Now take into account. That david allen comes from a lotus notes platform and i can two thousand one. He had eric mack. The programmer develop what is now known as e productivity and. It's the one that david still uses to this day which sits on top of the lotus notes platform but in essence david has used and continues to use a productivity as his task manager on his desktop environment. And he's on a mac. So i'm presuming that. It works on the mac as well and so. That's what david's been using for all these years. David has a vision for what is the ultimate gt software implementation and he shows that in this document that he released. It is nineteen pages of fairly detailed notes and drawings showing what the visual should look like for this application in what it should be doing under the hood so i will put a link to the pdf that they released. They released us on getting things. Done dot com. And i'll put a link to this in the show notes in essence. David has a series of features that he's looking for in the system and so i'm just gonna run down these pretty quickly so that we can have all general idea in essence.
