0:00.0	Hey, Strong Women listeners. This is Sarah. This month, as a thank you for a donation of any amount,
0:08.0	we want to send you a copy of Dale Alquist's new book, The Story of the Family, as well as access to a video study guide series created by the author himself, exclusively for the Colson Center.
0:20.6	In fact, in the new year, the Strong
0:22.3	Women community is going to be reading this book together and discussing it on Facebook,
0:26.8	so I hope you get your copy today.
