This is the Baymaw podcast with Marty Solomon.

I'm his co-host, Brent Billings.

Today I am with Josh Bosse and Reed Dent to join Kohelet by the pond.

Indeed.

We're just chilling out today.

We're just feeding some ducks.

Ain't that right, fellas. I heard you're not supposed

to do that. That's true. You shouldn't actually do that. It's bad for the ducks. I spent last

weekend just sitting by the lake, like there's my, my in-laws have a fire pit out by their lake,

or out by the lake at their lake house, and I just can sit for untold hours. So the idea of just chilling out by the water and like seeing what comes by. There we go. You're more prepped for this episode than anybody read. Even though I haven't really dug into the text at all. Like I'm flying blind there, but spiritually, like if we're talking about sitting by the waters and see what comes by, like I'm, I'm with you, Josh. I'm just here to sit. I love it. Sit by those waters. Well, as always, I'm going to open with a warning. But here's what I'm going to say about it. If you haven't been listening for the last 10 episodes, then you deserve what's coming to you.

You know what this book is.

You know what it's about.

You all got to know Kohelet by now and how she runs things.

It's the same old stuff.

It's going to be a little funky treat.

And we're getting to some really, really, you know, I've never heard, you know, these words described to Coelop, but honestly some very kind of encouraging and inducing peacefulness kind of conclusions.

It's really quite a beautiful chapter. I like it a lot. I hate calling things favorites, but this is a great little chapter here, and I cannot

wait to dig into it.

So without further ado, it's a very short chapter.

We only have 10 verses here.

So we're just going to do three little chunks, Brent.

Will you open us up with our first three verses?
