| 0:00.0 | What's up and welcome to Ask Father Josh, the podcast where I get to hear you out, |
| 0:04.1 | listen to your questions, pray with them, and then hopefully respond in such a way that it's |
| 0:07.9 | helpful for you and your walk toward eternity. The reality is this, your life, my life, our lives |
| 0:14.8 | are really messy and there's not always going to be that easy to go to fill the blank Christian |
| 0:19.9 | answer to life's common problems. So the purpose of the show is for me to just accompany you |
| 0:25.2 | and your walk toward counting Jesus so that together we can hear Jesus speak truth to our hearts |
| 0:30.8 | and we can listen to that truth, respond to that truth in such a way that we will become saints. |
