0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast
0:07.3	where we encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of scripture. The Bible
0:11.2	in the year podcast is brought to you by Ascension. Today we're going to do something a little bit
0:15.0	differently. We're actually going to kind of have a relaunch, some tips and offer some
0:19.2	steps you can take. If you're either restarting the Bible in the year or if you were starting it fresh and
0:24.4	you wonder like, how do I do this?
0:25.7	Like how do you actually go through the Bible in a year on a podcast or on any kind of
0:30.3	listening device or through YouTube?
0:32.4	Like how do I do this kind of thing?
0:34.2	We've done it for a year and we want you to join us this upcoming year. And so over the
0:39.0	course of this last year, we've learned some things. Some of the things we learned are what works
0:43.6	when it comes to the Bible in a year, what doesn't work when it comes to trying to get through
0:46.9	the Bible in the year. And so to begin, a couple words. One is, thank you. Thank you for even being
0:52.8	interested. If you found this page,
0:54.7	if you found this podcast, I really truly believe that that is because God is doing something
1:00.7	in your heart. Even if you're simply searching, that's, that's no small thing. That's actually
1:07.9	a significant thing. In fact, what we believe as Christians is that every
1:12.7	time we pray, it's always a response. So every time we search for the Lord, it's actually not us
1:18.4	initiating that search. It's always, always us responding to his searching for us. And so I just
1:25.8	want to encourage you. So you hopefully realize that if you
1:28.8	find yourself here, that's because God has moved in your heart in some unique way. So that's the
1:32.9	first thing. We just have to acknowledge that, that God cares about you. You're loved. You matter. Okay.
