Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.

0:07.0

Today we're going to be talking to Lee McDermott, pastor of New Spring Church in Greenville,

0:16.4

South Carolina. If you listen to Prep Episode 2, you heard the story of how Lee challenged

0:21.1

me to read the Bible all the way through and how it changed my life.

0:24.0

At the time, I'd been in full-time ministry for a few years as a musician and a writer and a speaker,

0:29.0

and Lee had mentioned that I should say very little on stage until I'd read the whole Bible. I was deeply

0:33.9

convicted by the challenge to fill my head and my heart with all of God's words

1:01.9

word of God because it's definitely

1:03.4

contagious.

1:04.6

We did this interview over the phone so it's not the best quality, but I promise you what it lacks

1:08.6

in audio quality, it more than makes up for in wisdom quality and quantity. So let's jump into the interview now.

1:16.4

Lee McDermott, welcome to the Bible Recap. We are so excited to have you. Why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself?

1:22.4

Well, first of all, what an honor. you, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself?

1:22.6

Well, first of all, what an honor, and I'm just so grateful for you.
