0:00.0	Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast with your host, Emma, daughter.
0:08.7	Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with one of our Watermark students, Mr. Noah Roby.
0:15.4	Hey. Noah, I'm so glad you're here. I am excited to talk about Genesis 15. But before we get there,
0:23.3	I know we've met through some Watermark student stuff, through lead team, but I want to know
0:28.5	how you came to know the Lord. So I was born and raised in a Christian home. My parents were always
0:35.3	super supportive of that. And I was a little sheltered through elementary
0:39.4	school. Same. And then junior high hit pretty hard. I wasn't actively pursuing a relationship
0:46.3	with Christ. And so I fell into a lot of sin and I was really just not pursuing God. And I felt
0:53.9	kind of lost, if that makes sense.

1:48.6	Yes, we are. And I know you've come in well studied and with some great notes. So what you got for us?
1:55.6	All right. So when I was reading Genesis 15, I kind of broke it down by a couple of verses. I noticed in verses 5 and
2:04.1	sex, it said, God said, he took him outside and said, look up at the sky and count the stars. If needed, you can
2:11.5	count them. And then he said to him, so shall your offspring be. Abraham believed the Lord, and it was credited to him as
2:19.3	righteousness. I saw that, like, God just promised Abraham that his descendants would be as numerous
