| 0:00.0 | Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. |
| 0:06.0 | If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend. |
| 0:10.3 | We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life. |
| 0:14.0 | God bless you. It's great to be with you today and I hope you'll stay connected with us during the week through our daily podcast, |
| 0:21.8 | our YouTube channel, social media, and you can come visit us in person. We'd love to have |
| 0:27.1 | you be a part of one of our services. I'd like to start with something funny and I heard |
| 0:32.1 | about this senior citizen. He was driving down the freeway and his brand new Corvette with the top down, going |
| 0:39.2 | 80 miles an hour, when he saw flashing red lights in his rearview mirror from a state trooper. |

| 2:04.0 | it, living down on ourselves, and the past is restricting us. Maybe we're dealing with an illness, |
