0:00.0	Welcome to a Year in the Bible with Daily Grace.
0:03.0	My name is Kristen and my name is Katie,
0:05.0	and we want to spend a few minutes a day with you
0:08.0	walking through the New Testament, one chapter at a time.

1:27.4	crowds to Jesus is shocking.
1:29.3	The man kneels before Jesus as a sign of respect and called Jesus by the title Lord.
1:35.3	His request is for healing if Jesus is willing. Without understanding just how despised leprosy was in the first century,
