0:00.0	Hey listeners, did you know that for every 10 minutes you spend in your Bible each day,
0:04.9	you're going to spend 1,430 minutes a day outside of your Bible?
0:10.1	So the question is, do you feel equipped?

1:31.3	Shouldn't our love for him be our primary identify or not these other things?
1:36.3	Apparently this isn't a new issue.
1:38.6	God's people have faced this temptation for a very long time,
