0:00.0	Welcome back to the Coffee and Bible Time podcast. For those that may be listening for the first time, our podcast is an offshoot from our main platform YouTube.
0:17.0	Our channel is called Coffee and Bible Time, where our goal is to help people delight in God's Word.
0:23.6	We also have a website and storefront with Bible studies, prayer journals, courses, and more.
0:29.6	I'm Mentor Mama and today we are going to be talking about how we long for control.
0:38.3	I think it's safe to say that a lot of people strongly desire control and control issues can cover a multitude of topics,
0:49.3	relationships and jobs and control over your kids, and the list could just go on and on.
0:55.2	We really just crave control and self-sufficiency.
1:00.7	But wanting to constantly be in control can leave us hurting, drained, and anxious.
1:10.5	Our guest today, Sharon Hattie Miller, author of the new book,
1:16.1	The Cost of Control, Why We Crave It, The Anxiety It Gives Us, and the Real Power God

2:10.5	binder. We modeled these teaching courses after a live event that we conducted for a group of
2:16.7	100 women and girls in Austin, Texas.
2:20.2	Unfortunately, when the pandemic hit, this cut off our ability to do live teaching, but the blessing
2:26.2	that came out of that time was that we now have available video teaching that can be utilized
2:32.2	by anyone, anywhere, at any time. In one course, Ashley teaches
2:37.9	how to pray using the prayer journal, and in the other course, Mentor Mama teaches how to pray
2:43.5	using the prayer binder. All you need to do to implement a program like the one we conducted
