Welcome to Deepen with Pastor Jobi Martin. The Church of 1122 is a movement for all people to discover

and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ. And we're praying this message helps you deepen your

relationship with him. Now let's dive in. All right, welcome back to the Deepen podcast in the

testimony series.

Let's testify.

Let's do it.

And Pastor Joe, we introduce our special guests.

Oh, man, one of my favorite staff people ever, and I hope this makes most of our staff really jealous.

I do.

Caitlin Armstrong, I call her strong arm, though, because I think it's a cooler last name.

She has been a part of our team from the, like, beach youth days, which one of the things that

just warms my soul is walking in a staff meeting and seeing like a dozen of the old crew

Is it Micah? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. We don't know. Man, one of the coolest things that we did was before we opened up this worship center that we're in now, as we read the Bible straight through. I don't know how many, I remember how hours that took. Seventy-two, 74, somewhere in there. No other commentary just from start to finish the Bible.

And the funnest part was listening to people reading the names.

Because it was like, you just have to power through because no one else knows.

like Jeremiah or Israel,
