When the Son of Man comeeth shall he find faith on the earth.

Lord, I believe, help thou mine unbelief.

May our testimonies be as deep for the strong as that of Jacob.

When confronted by one who sought to destroy his faith declared,

I could not be shaken.

Hello, my dear untraken saints. I'm Jared Halverson, and I have missed you.

Usually I get these videos out on Tuesday or Wednesday of each week,

about a week and a half before we're studying it in church on Sunday.

And as you know, this was later than usual.

I hope I can finish this in time to squeak it in before Sunday

when you're discussing it in church.

But it has been intense, a couple of weeks.

I've been stretching my snorkel to the breaking point,

and the tip is just barely above the surface of the water,

and then the waves pick up, and so I'm getting some water down here,

and feeling like I'm barely making it.

So please forgive me for my tardiness on getting this out to you,

and please know that my heart's been with you

and wanting to be able to share the truths of the gospel,

but it's been intense.

I was up against a really hard deadline on the final polishing of my dissertation.

That has taken forever.
