Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast with your host, Emma Daughter.

Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with actually a surprise guest. He's usually behind the scenes.

But today he's here. If you see him around, he'd love it if you call him Mr. Podcast, in the studio with Aaron Rose.

Well, thank you for having me.

So I've been involved with Watermark's podcast since basically the beginning.

Back in the early days, there was only the church leadership podcast, still going strong.

But since then, we've added the equipping podcast,

views from the porch, the collective, students' podcast, obviously join the journey. And I'm sure

I'm missing one or two. I also produce podcasts outside of Watermark. Two that I'll mention

would be Abel Speaks, which is for families who have a child with a life-limiting diagnosis.

So if you find yourself in that situation or know someone in that situation, I would highly recommend Abel Speaks podcast.

Also, Betterman, which is a ministry that's dedicated to Christ-centered masculinity, and it's got

awesome guests, a great host with Adam Tarnow. I couldn't recommend it more. So if that piques your

interest, go check out Better Man. Now, with being part of dozens of different podcast and

producing hundreds of different episodes, this is the first time I've been on this side of the

mic. So thanks for taking a chance on me. Hopefully I don't screw this up. But let's go ahead and

dive in to First Timothy 6, starting in verse 1.

Those who are under the yoke as slaves must regard their own masters at deserving of full respect.

This will prevent the name of God in Christian teaching from being discredited.

What a way to start a chapter.

Man, if you're like me, this can get you stuck.

It's like, oh, cool, we're going into slavery talk now.
