0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. My name is Kristen and my name is Katie and we want to spend a few minutes a day with you walking through the New Testament one chapter at a time.
0:11.0	This year we will fix our gaze upon Christ so that we may know
0:14.9	him, not only with our minds but with our hearts. Together we will learn that
0:19.1	who Jesus is changes everything. Hello friends, welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.
0:26.0	Together we are studying the New Testament in a year.
0:29.0	Today we are studying 2 Corinthians 4 and as always you can follow along with the behold studies in the Daily Grace Coast Shop or the reading plan linked in the show notes.

1:27.3	we do not give up.
1:28.7	Paul experienced much pain suffering
1:31.0	and opposition in his ministry. In fact, he was writing to some of the former and current
1:36.1	afflictors as he pinned 2nd Corinthians 4. We have to wonder if he ever wanted to throw in the
