| 0:00.0 | All right. Welcome to the first Q&A of 2022. And I'm Pastor Mike Winger. I'm here to |
| 0:12.4 | answer your questions live. So the best of my ability anyways, I don't pretend to have |
| 0:15.5 | all the answers. I know you don't think I have all the answers. Most of you, the wise |
| 0:19.7 | of you know that about me without me telling you. But I'm going to try to give you the best |
| 0:24.2 | answers I've got to the questions you have pointing you specifically to the Bible for |

| 1:21.4 | And one of the things I'd recommend is to consider Bible reading plans can be good, |
| 1:27.7 | but they can also be bad. A Bible reading plan that has you reading the Bible, where |
| 1:34.0 | you feel like you're getting behind. And after like, say, a few days of not following |
| 1:38.3 | the plan, there's this mountain of reading that you have to catch up to to be part to basically |
