0:36.1	You know, I heard recently that the number of dollars that have come through that link, just guess how much it is.
1:11.4	$14.92. I'll just say it's higher than that. Jim guess? 10 million. Lower than that. So there has been between $14 and $10 million given to that, and you can give it to it.

1:48.0	From Boston, from Canada. From Wales. Two sisters from Wales. It was awesome. Would you guys want to do that again?
1:55.7	Sure. Absolutely. You know, so if that sounds interesting to you. You know, maybe you ought to do that on SBTS campus.
2:01.0	Who do we suggest that to? I don't know. I think this would be a great location for it. I mean, we are out about the Bible and theology and the training of pastors here. I mean, it would certainly be easier to get here. Yeah. Or if there's another pastor who pastors a church next to a beach. Or a mountain. Or a mountain. or any sort of fun place.
