Hello and welcome to the Sheerid's Truth Podcast. Sheerid's Truth creates beautiful, accessible,

Bible reading plans and resources to help you get into God's Word every day.

Each week here on the podcast, we talk about what we're going to read together as a community

this week. I'm your host, Rachel Myers, and I'm your other host, Amanda Bible Williams,

and what we're going to read together as a community this week is the Book of Ezra.

This is week one of a short two week series in the Book of Ezra, and we're pretty pumped

about this one. It may be the first time we have read the Book of Ezra in full as a community.

It's certainly the first time we've podcasted it. Correct.

Which I'm excited about. We're excited. And we have a great guest to kick off her series

with us, Dr. Christina Edmondson. She is our neighbor here in Nashville, local to Nashville.

She has so many titles and hats that she wears. You guys, I'm not even going to attempt

to list them all. Very impressive. She's just brilliant and impressive. And even more than

that, just so kind and a joy to talk to and be around. And so we had a great conversation

with her about the Book of Ezra. Something that I do want to be sure that you know is that

she is the co-host of Truths Table podcast. And they have a new podcast called Get in the Word

with Truths Table. I mean, so I think that that is something that we might all be interested in.

Anyway, let's get right to this episode. I think you're going to love it.

But before we do, this is your friendly reminder that it is not too late to get an Ezra

reading guide if you don't have one. If you have your reading guide, get it out now. You're about
