Hey guys, welcome to Before the Noise, the place where we slow down before the chaos kicks in every weekday.

Join us for more at BeforeThe Noise.com. Let's go.

Hey, guys, good morning. It is March 2nd. Can you believe it is already March, 2026? Welcome to Before the Noise. good morning everybody if you're new here my name is chad prether i'm glad you decided to join us

bright and early on this monday morning if you're out on the West Coast, who, God bless you. I hope everything is going well. If you're awake, we are

praying right now for our world, praying particularly for those men and women in uniform

and all the decisions that are being made across the globe, but particularly our leadership

here in this country.

But we're here to focus a little bit on the scripture and just wallow in the word.

So again, if you're new here, these are my devotional times.

You guys have the opportunity to sit in with me.

And it's my pleasure.

It's my privilege to be able to have you with me. So welcome. Let me see a few of those dancing bananas there in the live chat there on Rumble. If you're watching by way of Rumble, if you're over on YouTube or on Facebook or X, welcome there as well, party foul Steve. I'm assuming I haven't seen him this morning. He's probably lurking around in there. We'll see, there he is.

We'll see some dancing party file Steve's. Steve's our, he's our hall monitor. So if you get out of line and start getting belligerent or crazy or getting, you know, distracting, we'll put you in time out. We're not afraid to do that. You guys doing okay today? You guys hanging in there? You're rocking and rolling? I'm glad to see you guys here bright and early on this Monday morning.

We're in Hebrew. doing okay today you guys hanging in there you rocking and rolling glad to see you guys here

bright and early on this monday morning we're in hebrews chapter six so we're uh cooking right

along in the book of hebrews the book of hebrews is is a challenging book it's it's very

theologically deep it's culturally deep uh it is religiously deep. If you don't understand the

history of much of the Old Testament, particularly the Jewish religion, as it was understood

in the first century, it's kind of hard to bite off and understand these ideas because

they're not devotional faults here in the book of Hebrews.

So we're doing, I think, an adequate job.

I'm doing my best here to do an adequate job to bring some practical 21st century American Christian application out of a very ancient letter to a very ancient mindset,
