| 0:00.0 | Hey, friends, I just want to invite you to consider joining the Theology Nirao Patreon community. |
| 0:05.2 | This is a group of followers who believe in the ministry and work of Theology Nirao and |
| 0:09.3 | want to support it financially. And honestly, I've been so impacted by the people who have chosen |
| 0:13.9 | to support this podcast. Every month, they send in a bunch of questions. A lot of them are |
| 0:18.0 | really personal and I get to spend time responding to them in a private podcast and we, |
| 0:23.2 | you know, will message each other throughout the month and post responses to each other's questions. |
| 0:27.2 | I'm actually going to start something new this fall, a monthly live zoom chat with some of |
| 0:31.4 | the members and I'm super looking forward to actually seeing more of their faces every month. |
