0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks where we connect the Bible to your life in the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.0	I'm Tanya Wilmouth.
0:11.0	I'm Keith Simon.
0:12.0	And I'm Patrick Miller.
0:13.7	Right now we're in our Christmas series.
0:16.0	We're exploring the stories around Jesus birth and the prophecies pointing forward to it.
0:20.5	What would bring you peace? Maybe a coworker getting fired or not having to live with your roommate anymore,

1:19.5	process. Now Caesar was treated like a god because his military tactics of combining the most powerful
1:26.4	leaders and creating a unified empire did quiet the threats of civil war and did make Rome a safer place to live and work.
1:36.3	But this contrast in lifestyle and his ability to persuade and influence the most powerful people
1:42.1	in the world made him appear like a
1:44.3	Savior and the Lord. His government propaganda certainly helped the cause also.
