TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:

Mark 4:21–25 - [21] And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket, or under a bed, and not on a stand? [22] For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret except to come to light. [23] If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.” [24] And he said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you. [25] For to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.” (ESV)

0:00.0	Well, here we are again, ready to get our minds aligned with the truth of God's word for this day.
0:10.0	On the morning mindset, I'm grateful to you with me.
0:13.0	My name is Kerry.
0:14.0	I'm a pastor and a Bible teacher.
0:16.0	I'm eager to get into the Word of God today with you.
0:19.0	Before we do, though, I want to encourage you to help me
0:21.5	get the word out about the morning mindset. We now have versions in Chinese and Hindi and Spanish.
0:27.5	If you know missionaries or people who speak those languages, maybe someone who's even learning
0:31.9	those languages, it would be a great way to get someone into the Word of God by pointing them to the version of the
0:38.8	Morning Mindset that's in their language. You can find those in the description for this episode,

1:20.6	is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket or under a bed and not on a stand? For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest,
1:31.6	nor is anything secret except to come to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.
1:39.3	And he said to them, pay attention to what you hear. With a measure you use, it will be measured to you,
1:46.9	and still more will be added to you. For to the one who has, more will be given. And from the one
1:54.3	who has not, even what he has will be taken away. Now, friends, this is another one of those passages that at first read could be
