0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.8	I'm Jensen Holt McNair.
0:12.1	Right now we're going through the first book of the Bible, Genesis.
0:15.0	Have you ever heard of rubbernecking? You know how sometimes when you're driving on the highway and you hit traffic from an accident.
0:24.1	And you're annoyed that it's taking so long, especially when you get closer to see that it's
0:28.4	actually mostly cleared by now, so the traffic shouldn't have been as bad except everyone is slowing down to see what happened in the crash.
0:36.0	And then all of a sudden you realize you've also slowed down and are looking to see what happened in the crash and oops the car in front of you is gone and you've become the problem.
0:46.3	That's rubbernecking. Not you becoming the problem, but the looking at the wreck.
0:52.1	It's a thing we do as humans because we tend to have this morbid curiosity.
0:57.0	See, even if it's a horrible crash and we don't want to look, we can't look away. We can't look away. That's today's passage for me. It's a train

1:27.0	See, right now, we're going through Genesis, and we're currently in Chapter 19. Chapter 19 starts out with the destruction of Sodom and
1:36.1	Gomora. In the account, we learned that Lott and his family are to be spared by the mercy of God as long as they flee and don't look back.
1:45.2	But his wife looks back and she dies. So now we find ourselves with Lott, a widower
1:52.4	and his two daughters fleeing their home that's just
1:55.5	been violently destroyed with all its people.
1:58.8	Now we're going to pick up the story in verse 30 and just read it straight through so buckle up because it gets messy fast.
2:07.8	Lott and his two daughters left Soer and settled in the mountains for he was afraid to stay in Zower.
2:14.8	He and his two daughters lived in a cave.
2:17.6	One day the older daughter said to the younger,
2:20.1	Our father is old, and there's no man around here to give us children, as is the custom all over the earth.
