| 0:05.6 | Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick. I'm the pastor of Elevation Church, and this is our podcast. |
| 0:10.4 | I wanted to thank you for joining us today. Hope this inspires you. Hope it builds your faith. |
| 0:15.3 | Hope it gives you perspective to see God is moving in your life. Enjoy the message. |
