| 0:00.0 | Is there any biblical precedent for having Godparents? That's just one of the questions we'll be |
| 0:10.8 | answering on today's edition of Core Christianity. Well, happy Labor Day. I'm Bill Meyer, |
| 0:16.2 | along with Pastor Adriel Sanchez, and this is the radio program where we answer your questions about the Bible and the Christian life every day. |

| 0:44.5 | today is the fifth anniversary of Core Christianity. Can I hardly believe it, five years on the air. |
| 0:51.9 | And, you know, just to back up a minute, we, this program started off a little differently. |
| 0:57.7 | Actually, it was a recorded program with Dr. Michael Horton, our founder, who was hosting |
| 1:02.8 | the show. |
| 1:03.8 | Adriel was his protege. |
| 1:05.8 | Is that a good word to you? |
| 1:07.8 | Yeah. |
| 1:08.8 | And then Dr. Horton, because of his schedule, his teaching and writing schedule, needed it back out of the program. |
| 1:14.9 | Adriel took over the show and has done such a wonderful job. And I have to ask you, Adrile, what do you think has been one of the most encouraging things to you over the past five years? |
| 1:26.2 | Yeah, Bill, it's crazy to think back to those early days five years ago because at that |
| 1:31.1 | time, the broadcast was pre-recorded, so we'd get the questions or the voicemails or the |
| 1:35.8 | emails, and then we'd go through, we'd pick a handful of them, and then we'd go through |
| 1:40.5 | them, Mike and I would. |
| 1:42.3 | And for those of you who don't know, we're always offering Mike's book, Core Christianity on the broadcast for inner core listeners. There's a great resource introducing people to the core doctrines of the Christian faith. He's a phenomenal theologian, has written a ton. And so it was great to have him. I miss him. We want to bring him back for a special episode one of these days or something like that. |
