0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast, where we
0:07.7	encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of scripture. The Bible in a year podcast is
0:12.1	brought to you by Ascension. Using the Great Adventure Bible timeline, we'll read all the way from
0:15.8	Genesis to Revelation, discovering how the story unfolds and how we fit into that story today.
0:22.3	Today is day 366 because this year is a leap year. And so we have a little bonus episode. You were like,
0:28.9	wait a second, I got done with the Bible in the year yesterday. What is happening today? Well,
0:34.0	as they said, today's day 366. We're still another day left in this year.
0:38.7	And if you are on your own reading plan, it might not be December 31st right now for you,
0:42.8	but it could be any time of the year.
0:44.8	Praise God for that, because we have, again, day 366.
0:47.7	You know, it's been a number of years since we first recorded the Bible in a year.
0:51.4	And it's remarkable the ways we've seen this podcast change people's
0:57.2	lives. And the first question people ask them, how has it changed your life? I realize, well,
1:01.7	I'm going to read some things today. And today, as I'm reading things, I need to put on some readers.
1:06.5	So there's a little change there. But in other ways, I'm just so grateful for,
1:12.7	because I go back and I, I listen. I listen on a regular basis to this podcast. I have to
1:19.0	listen at two times speed. And I know people think that's crazy, but I listen to two times speed for
1:23.2	at least two reasons. One is that, you know how when you listen to your own voice, you just are like, oh my goodness, that's what I sound like. If I go at two times speed, I can't hear
1:31.5	myself. And then secondly, if I do listen at the normal speed, I am sitting there the entire time
1:36.8	thinking, bro, you got to talk faster. You're going so slow, which I know is maybe news for some
1:42.7	people. But the deeper reality of how has this podcast
1:47.5	changed my life is I, the more and more I come into contact with God's word as a whole.
