0:00.0	There was one man who Jesus himself said was the greatest man born of work.
0:14.0	As we study through the life of John the Baptist, we will discover why God used him in such a powerful way.
0:20.0	Join us now for today's study.
0:23.6	Well today we begin a special journey with John the Baptist.

1:45.0	I'm more and more convinced as I study the life of John the Baptist
1:48.0	that is exactly what he did in John the Baptist family.
1:52.0	You see, the most famous family, the opening pages of the New Testament,
