0:06.8	This teaching was originally given at Vintage Church in Santa Monica, California, as a part of a series on prayer.
0:20.1	Thanks, Gare. Good morning. Peace to you. Really good to be with you. Please turn in your Bibles to Luke
0:28.2	Chapter 11. And once you're there, and again, I would encourage you to bring a Bible along with you.
0:34.9	And by that, I mean like the Codex, not the app, nothing against that.
