| 0:00.0 | I am vexed and challenged today on how to do what we need to do. |
| 0:25.4 | For those of you who are just jumping in, what a fascinating time for you to join this podcast. |
| 0:29.7 | Hi, my name's Matt. |
| 0:30.6 | This is called the 10-minute Bible hour. |
| 0:32.5 | What we do on this podcast is we pick a book of the Bible and we go right through it. |
| 0:36.3 | We follow our curiosity. We follow the text. We cover every word of that book of the Bible and we go right through it. We follow our curiosity. We follow |
| 0:38.7 | the text. We cover every word of that book of the Bible. It takes as long as it takes because, |
| 0:43.1 | I mean, it's not church. This is the Bible without the sermon, right? We just chip away at it |
| 0:47.8 | and you try to figure out what's going on here historically. What would the original audience |
| 0:53.3 | have thought about this thing. |
| 0:54.5 | It's really fun if you're just joining us because we get into the deep water with it and, you know, 10, 12 minutes a day, you can fit it into your schedule, make it part of your daily rhythm.

| 1:21.0 | And so we're looking at some of the towns that the letter of Galatians was probably written to, |
| 1:24.6 | and we've looked at two that were pretty easy to work through, |
| 1:28.5 | Derby and Leistra. |
| 1:29.6 | They were little towns. |
| 1:32.8 | Now they're just hills of dirt with a tiny bit excavated. |
| 1:35.0 | There's nothing really there anymore. And we have a few hints from archaeology and from historic records and a little bit from |
| 1:42.2 | within the Bible to say, okay, everything we see looks |
| 1:44.7 | like Christianity held on there for centuries and centuries after Paul wrote them the |
| 1:50.5 | letter of Galatians, but we don't know a lot of the specifics. Now we've moved on to the third |
| 1:55.2 | city on the list, starting yesterday, to investigate what evidence might be there about how they received the book of Galatians. |
