0:00.0	Welcome to Tim Men of Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.0	I'm Keith Simon. I'm Tanya Wilmoth. I'm Jensen Holt McNair. And I'm Patrick Miller.
0:15.0	We're digging into the stories found in the first books of the Bible. They're not just some of the best stories in the Bible.
0:22.0	They're some of the best stories in the Bible, they're some of the best stories in all of

1:29.6	Now Genesis 9 has some really important verses on the death penalty debate.
1:34.0	So I thought maybe it'd be helpful to look at those verses, but also what the rest of the Bible
