0:00.0 | Welcome to the reality revolution. I'm your host, Brian Scott. |
0:12.1 | And today, by popular request from many people in the group, I'm going to read the first |

0:25.1 | Part of this channel is a search for deeper understanding. |
0:31.9 | Oftentimes, this leads beyond the Bible itself, even in our attempts to fully understand the Bible. |
