0:00.0	Hey everybody and welcome back to I just want to talk about the Bible.
0:09.0	If this is your first time joining us today, then let me just welcome you and say that I am so glad that you're here.
0:15.0	My name is Christian Keeter and I live in the southeast of the United States of America with my amazing, beautiful,
