How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

What qualifies a group of people to be considered at church?

Does the Bible tell us what makes up a genuine church?

Welcome to Through the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee, I'm Steve Schweets, and in this new study of the letter of

First Timothy, we're going to discover the answers to these questions and many more.

So while you turn your Bible to Paul's first letter to his young protégé Timothy, Greg Harris

through the Bible's president is here, so that we can share an update on our mission of taking the whole

word to the whole world so hi Greg hey Steve and what do you want to talk about

today? Well I want to take us back home to North America which which is where we are.

You're looking to me like this is a strange way to open this conversation.

You know folks, we actually have a lot of fun.

Usually. Yeah, if we were miked lot of fun. Usually.

Yeah, if we were miked off the studio, you would,

you probably wouldn't think we're that funny, but we try.

Anyway, we love to do this and we love to talk

about what God is doing right here at home.

Now, let's be honest, when you think about TTB's ministry in North America,

what's your sort of first impulse?

Radio.

Radio and what language? English. Yeah, but what we want to remember is that we have a lot of other

languages that are being listened to here in North America there are a lot of immigrants

here and in Canada and you know in the United States 42 million people speak Spanish
