Hey, everybody. Welcome to you. We're born for this podcast with Father John Ricardo and Mary

0:06.4

Guilfoyle. We're a couple of missionaries at Acts 29, and this is the podcast where we talk about

0:16.8

downright stuns us in our daily lives. And I think, Mary, that's what it's going to do this

0:24.0

week, isn't it? Amen, it is. I'm excited to talk about what we're going to break open today. So what is

0:28.4

1:51.5

Thanks to Albert, who's just done some incredible work to make sure that we could make the challenge available in Spanish.

1:52.3
