## Resource

In this seventeenth episode, Pastor Luke looks at the history of excuse making and talks about putting excuses to death. Far too many men in the Church make excuses for their failures, not because they are not capable of taking on responsibility, but because they are allergic to hard work. Responsibility involves sacrifice and selflessness and pain. Making excuses is easy and requires nothing more than creativity. It is selfish and painless. Hard work produces results, despising excuses. Great men don’t make excuses, but overcome them. Don’t be good at making excuses, but good at putting them do death. Bury the excuses. Yesterday was easy!
