| 0:00.8 | Today, if you hear God's voice, do not harden your hearts. |
| 0:05.0 | Hebrews chapter 3, verse 7 and 8. |
| 0:09.0 | Welcome to today's encouragement from our daily bread. |
| 0:13.0 | Anatomy of a hardening heart was written by Adam Holes and read by Stephen Tabor. |
| 0:21.6 | Hebrews chapter 3, verses 7 through 15. |

| 1:48.4 | who ordered tests that allowed me to see that my heart has calcium buildup, more than I should have. |
| 1:55.9 | Athrosclerosis, the doctors call it, hardening of the arteries. I've made big diet and exercise changes, but I've also realized that my cardiac concerns didn't emerge overnight. |
