Well, this week we have a very exciting guest. It's exciting for me. Dr. Ben Dunson is with us.

0:13.4

He is a graduate of Texas A&M, Westminster Seminary, University of Durham as well. He is the executive editor at American Reformer,

0:24.8

which is a journal that I have just been devouring since they released it. And he may look nice

0:29.8

and he may look innocent, but you only think that because you didn't take two years of Greek with

0:33.7

him. He's also my former professor at Reformation Bible College. So how many courses

0:37.7

did you actually take with Dr. Dunson? I think I probably took eight or nine, eight or nine

0:42.1

courses. Pretty much all my New Testament and all of my Greek. So Ben, did you declare him as a

0:47.2

dependent on your IRS tax returns? Yeah, it's nice to see Graham all grown up. I knew him back in the day when he was just a lowly college student.

1:28.4

and you're coming from Dallas, Texas, right? That's where you live now, right

1:32.2

outside of Dallas and McKinney. Yeah, just north of Dallas. And you're a native Texan, right?

1:36.4

Native Texan, yeah, born in Texas, thankfully, because I live in a lot of my child in Oklahoma,

1:42.1

but I got the birth right.

1:44.5

Yeah, there you go.

1:45.3

Well, we call Oklahoma North Texas, so that's okay.

1:49.1

I'm a native Texan as well, and you went to Texas A&M.

1:52.0

1:53.7

I just can't imagine this.
