| 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. Today, we are talking about Genesis 16 and 17, and I am in the podcast studio with one of our longtime faithful Watermark members, Mrs. Julie Fowler. |
| 0:23.6 | Hello. Julie, I'm so glad you're here. |
| 0:30.5 | You've been around Watermark for much longer than I have, and we just met today. So I'd love to get to know you a little bit better. How did you come to know the Lord and what's he doing in your |
| 0:34.5 | life now? Well, thanks so much. You're welcome. I grew up an Army kid, |
| 0:39.0 | and I moved 11 times before even going to college. Wow. And went to three different high |
| 0:44.5 | schools in three totally different places, including overseas. And it could be challenging and |
| 0:50.4 | emotional to leave and then start over each time. But my dad had shared the gospel with me |

| 1:39.0 | And because, you know, at age six, I didn't fully. You could only understand so much. Yeah. |
| 1:43.1 | Didn't fully grasp my need for a |
| 1:45.1 | savior. But I did know that it was Christ alone that gave me a relationship with Christ and |
| 1:50.3 | allowed me to go to heaven and have eternity with him. But yeah, learning more about my own sin |
| 1:56.5 | and my need for a savior came through that class and then just being in lots of different |
| 2:03.2 | communities through the years and knowing his word and being in the studies has really |
