0:00.0	Hello, and welcome to Bible Stories. We are your hosts. This is Matt. Hello. Hey, Matt.
0:29.3	My name is Todd. We are two buddies slash ministers slash Tim, the tool man, big fan heads.
0:39.1	Man, one of the best things we love to do is to share Bible stories with you, our moms,
0:46.0	our moms friends, and others who happen to drop by. And man, we can't wait to share those with you.
0:51.8	Matt, we've got a special one for today. It's not exactly heartwarming, but I do know that there's
0:56.9	some good takeaway from it. A little Old Testament story for everybody. Matt, you take it away.
1:04.3	We're going to be over in First Kings chapter three today. And one of the things I was

2:12.9	Good looking guy. You heard it here first. That's what I heard.
2:17.1	You remember that Solomon, he started his reign off pretty well. He had a somewhat healthy
2:25.6	perspective at the beginning. He would lose that, but at the beginning things were pretty good.
2:30.6	One of the better parts of Solomon's thinking was his recognition that his dad was successful,
