0:00.0	Companionship is what makes every journey enjoyable.
0:11.0	Today, we continue our journey with Jesus.
0:15.0	Join Scott Pauli as we make brief stops in the Gospel according to Mark.
0:19.0	We trust you will enjoy the journey.
0:28.1	Our first stop on our journey with Jesus through the gospel according to Mark is in Mark
