0:00.0	Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Hope everyone is having a wonderful day, a wonderful week.
0:15.0	Today we're doing another Q&A episode. And if you're new here, I am currently on maternity
0:20.6	leave. And so we are doing these kind of evergreen episodes where we're not following the
0:26.4	news cycle, but I'm doing lots of amazing interviews every week. And then I'm also doing
0:31.4	these Q&A episodes. I'm also doing some topical episodes as well. And so in these Q&A episodes,
0:36.8	I just take questions that you guys sent me from Instagram. And I answer them. And so I usually
0:44.2	only get through a few because they make me think about other things that I want to explain.
0:49.0	But you guys sent me a lot of awesome questions. And so I'm going to answer as many as I can
0:55.2	over the next few weeks. And if you didn't submit any questions, that's okay. Every episode of
1:01.2	these Q&As I guarantee has something that maybe you were curious about or wanted to ask me about.

1:18.5	church during COVID. There's been a lot of, there's been a lot of dialogue, a lot of discussion
1:24.8	and debate about that from the very beginning. Now I would say most churches at the beginning of
1:30.5	this whole thing about a year ago said, okay, we're going to just do remote services because we don't
1:37.0	know how bad this is going to be. We didn't know like we were told that it could be a 20%
1:42.5	fatality rate. And we just didn't know how terrible it was going to be. And of course we thought
1:47.0	it was going to be 15 days to slow the spread L O L. And so we thought this whole thing was going
1:52.0	to be very temporary. And so I think a lot of churches just said, you know, not meeting in person
1:58.1	for a few weeks is not that big of a deal. People are going to be able to do this remotely. We'll come
2:02.2	back together when it's safer. And then the longer this went on, the longer we realized that,
2:09.2	oh, this is not going to just be 15 days to slow the spread. This is maybe even going to be more than
