0:00.0	Hey everybody and welcome to The You Were Born for this podcast with Father John Ricardo.
0:08.3	That's me. I'm your host, Father John. I am the executive director of Acts 29, where we talk about anything and everything related to transforming the church.
0:16.7	And a little bit different today. I've got Nick and Mary in the room, but I took the microphones
0:21.1	away from them. Sorry, guys, as I'm looking at them. And we have a very special guest with us today.
0:26.2	His name's Commander Kevin Haney. Commander's good to have you with us, brother.

1:34.2	we kind of gave an overview to the brothers of this transition that we're living in.
1:39.3	And today, this evening, as we're recording this, he's going to be addressing the men
