| 0:07.0 | Hmm. Howdy and thank you for tuning in the Taylor Marshall Show. This is the |
| 0:19.3 | podcast for all of you who want to create daily habits and learn enough theology to take their faith to the next level. |
| 0:28.0 | And my goal this week is to talk about a controversial issue from the Catholic point of view. Is God male or is God female? |
