0:00.0	You're listening to the 10-minute Bible hour podcast.
0:12.1	It's fast, fun, free, daily deep dive Bible.
0:14.5	And right now we're talking about Galatians.
0:20.0	Do you have a place on your daily commute or on your most regular drive that you do where you come to a particular light?
0:27.2	Maybe it's a very long stoplight.
0:29.4	And you know that the fastest way to get to your destination, if the light is green, is just to go straight.
0:34.5	You're going to get there the quickest.
0:35.9	But if that light turns red, right as you get there, you know,'ve got to slide into the right lane and do a right turn on red, and then you'll get there more quickly going that other way.
0:44.6	Maybe you don't have a place like that.
0:46.0	I have a place like that in Rabbit City, South Dakota.
0:49.2	And we use that trick all the time at that intersection. It's kind of a fun family game we do where it's like, all right, kids, watch this light coming up. This is the nightmare light in town. I'm getting

1:14.5	everything right I'll position properly we're all eyes up and paying attention we make the right
1:19.8	move and then once you get around the corner you realize oh there's a ton of traffic in front of me
1:24.3	then you kind of peek back the other way and you're like well there's a ton of traffic traffic there too. All right, either way I was going to lose, I could have put forth all the effort
1:31.2	and strategy and planning I wanted to. This just isn't going to get me home faster. Things are
1:36.9	what things are. Likewise, in the book of Galatians, and particularly in the verse that I'm about to read you, Galatians 310, it seems like we're
1:45.1	running into one of these situations where whether you turn right on red or you went straight on
1:49.3	green, either way you're going to run into traffic and it's not going to work. You're not going to
1:52.1	get home any quicker. It's going to be totally effective. A catch 22, if you will, because Paul
