How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

It's a great day to study God's word on through the Bible, and we're continuing our journey through Genesis.

0:22.7

This time we're in Chapter 25.

0:25.1

We're about halfway through the book, by the way.

But first, Greg Harris, through the Bible's president and I, have some exciting things to share about what God's doing through the teaching of his word in the Armenian language.

0:43.4

Yeah, I mean, when's the last time the word Armenian appeared in a sentence where you were talking to somebody? I'm asking everybody listening. Probably not too often. Yeah. Yeah. Occasionally here. Well, it is on the border of Iran, and so there's that.

1:57.5

but I felt it was important to pray on my own to make that decision by faith. She was
