Fyre Festival As A Mirror
- Steven Furtick describes watching the Fyre Festival documentary and links it to cultural FOMO and scams.
- He uses the fiasco to introduce his deeper fear: not missing out, but running out of resources and energy.
Attachment Versus Revelation
- Furtick warns that receiving resources without recognizing the giver leads to attachment to the resource.
- He says revelation of who God is prevents running out because attachment shifts from provision to relationship.
Involve God, Then Obey
- Mary involved Jesus by naming the need and then telling servants to obey him: "Do whatever he tells you."
- Furtick urges listeners to involve God and act on his instructions instead of overanalyzing the method.
