| 0:00.0 | All right, here we are. Welcome to the Friday, Q&A. I'm Mike Winger here to try to answer |
| 0:07.4 | your questions about Christianity, God, Jesus, the Bible, taking your questions on face |
| 0:13.3 | value, seriously, thoughtfully, hopefully. And our goal here is to help you think biblically |
| 0:19.1 | about everything. That is that your thought process is in the end. Hold on, any more light, |
| 0:24.6 | become biblical. You start to think the way the Bible thinks in a metaphorical sense. |
| 0:31.6 | So question number one comes in from Christina Har and I put this one off because I wanted to |

| 1:35.4 | in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. That phrase right there |
| 1:41.7 | causes a lot of fear and trembling in people understandably, right? And because I'm with you, |
