Hey everybody and welcome back to I Just Want to talk about the Bible.

If this is your first time joining us, then let me just welcome you and say that I am so glad that you're here.

My name is Christian Keeter and I live in the southeast of the United States of America with my amazing, beautiful, godly wife

Lacey and our two wonderful daughters, Felicity and Serenity. Okay, so let me state right at the outset

here, something I am taking for granted, something that I know to be true about you. There are areas

in your life in which you would like to see change. There are circumstances

that you would like to be different. There are pressures you feel, stressors you face,

pain you endure, and other such things that you would like to change. And for those of us who

are Jesus followers, which I hope is everybody who's

listening to this right now, these are things that we have no doubt prayed about. And if they're

not things that we've prayed about, we should be praying about them. But these are things we've

most likely asked God to deliver us from, areas where we've been asking

for his help, asking him to move in some sort of way, or change a situation or a circumstance

or something. And as a side note, I just said, you know, for those of us who are Jesus followers,

we've no doubt prayed about this or should be praying about

these things. If you're listening to this and you happen not yet to be a follower of Jesus,

I just want to say that I'm so glad that you're here. And I want to let you know that I'm going

to link in the show notes of this episode to a previous one where I talk about how you can

begin a relationship with Jesus,

and it's just called the gospel. So if you would like more information about that, you can

find the link in the show notes. So, but like I said, we face these situations. We face pressures.

We face unpleasant circumstances. We face things that we want to change.
