| 0:08.3 | That's just one of the questions we'll be answering on today's edition of Core Christianity. |
| 0:13.3 | Well, hi there, and happy Monday. I'm Bill Meyer. It's Tuesday, I'm sorry. Tuesday. |
| 0:18.8 | Bill, what's going on? You forgot your name. You forgot the day of the week. Come on, man. |
| 0:24.0 | Okay, so I'll start over again. Happy Tuesday. This is Bill Meyer with Andrew St. |

| 0:35.2 | And we'd love to hear from you. Here's our phone number. It's 8333-3-3-243-2673. That's 1.833-843-243-2673. Of course, you can always email us as well. Here's our email address. It's Questions at Core Christianity.com. Bill, you also almost called me Andrea there. I think that's not one that I often, I mean, I get Adrian and Ariel every once in a while, Gabriel. |
