Hi everybody. Welcome to the Don't Miss this podcast, a come follow me study with Emily Bell Freeman and David Butler.

We fill this show up with all the things we think you don't want to miss in the scriptures every week.

Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy the show. Hi, everybody. I'm Dave Butler.

I'm Grace Freeman.

Welcome to Don't Miss This.

This is our scripture study class.

If you're new here, howdy.

If you're an old-time friend, howdy-howdy.

And, well, I guess both you should get how'd both. Double-haddy. If you're an old-time friend, howdy, howdy, howdy. And, well, I guess both you should get how'd both. That probably was to the new people. But howdy-howdy to all, everybody who's coming. We moved through the scriptures. This year we're in the New Testament, and we are going, we're in the second half of the New Testament, the letters of Paul. We're doing two letters today, Philippians and Colossians. And we move through and we point out things that we think you don't want to miss

as you go through the scriptures and just little tips and tricks on teaching and discussing

and all the above. So we're super happy that you're here and we are going to jump right in.

If you have the Tippins, you're new and don't know what this is, we have a little set of these things we call tip-ins that if you use real-life scriptures, that you can slide into the pages. There are kind of these things we used to have in seminary where you can just glue along the edge and slide it in. So every time you come back to the spot in scripture, you have this little thing that will remind

you of things that you learned or whatever. On these, at the beginning of every letter, there's

like a little intro of who wrote it when it was written, kind of who the audience was and what

the vibe of that city was that Paul was writing to, and then a couple things that almost act like

a table of content. So we have one for Philippians and we have one for Colossians.

And if you want to write on one of these or your notes somewhere about these two cities,

Paul,

Paul's actually been to the city of Philippi.
