| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Faith-A-Jason. |
| 0:14.5 | I'm your host and resident Bible scholar, Aaron Moon. |
| 0:16.8 | And joining me today, someone who is screaming at the top of his lungs, |
| 0:20.4 | when wilt thou save the people, is guidance counselor Evan Dodson. |
| 0:24.1 | And today, we're getting extremely niche and discussing the faith adjacency of the 1971 musical Godspell. |
| 0:32.5 | Well, before we get started, y'all, this episode is on theme today. |
| 0:36.3 | We're not doing this for no reason. |

| 0:39.6 | Everything we do is thoughtful, okay? |

| 1:23.3 | maybe you'll agree on this. They feel like our destiny. They feel like the culmination of just a lot of |
| 1:29.2 | nerdery. Yes. And that is important to me. It's important to me too. And I think it'll be important to you |
| 1:36.0 | as you listen to this bundle here. Head over to faithadjacent.com slash Broadway to check it out now. |
| 1:43.5 | Can you believe that faith adjacent has been around for seven years? |
| 1:47.3 | Knox and I started out doing deep dives of some of your favorite stories from the Bible, |
