0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Sheeran's Truth Podcast. Sheeran's Truth creates beautiful, accessible
0:06.7	Bible reading plans and resources to help you get into God's Word every day. Each week
0:12.0	here on the podcast, we typically talk about what we're going to read together as a community
0:16.0	this week. However, this is a bonus episode. I'm your host, Rachel Myers, and I'm your
0:21.5	other host, Amanda Bible Williams, and y'all, we're talking about one of our favorite things
0:26.7	today. Yes. We are going to answer the question, what is Advent? It's a great question. It's
0:33.8	such a good question. So if you follow Sheeran's Truth on any form of social media or receive
0:40.9	our emails or text messages, any of those things, you've probably gotten a few alerts now. A fair

1:41.4	together, right? We've been reading the Bible together for almost 12 years now. This will be
1:47.8	our 12th Advent together as a community. Yeah. And I don't know that we could have predicted how
1:56.4	important Advent has become to our community. Yeah. It really, really has. It's a huge part of
2:04.6	our rhythm. Yeah. It is just an unmovable fixture in our community's calendar. You know what? It
2:10.2	feels like our homecoming, like the Sheeran's Truth Homecoming. I like that. Yeah. It's just like
