0:00.0	Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Follow Him. We're so glad you are here. We can't do this without you. Thank you for joining us. We're here today with Ross Barron. And this is one of those backstory type lessons.
0:22.9	Thoughts to keep in mind.
0:24.3	Sometimes thoughts come out.
0:26.2	Sometimes you keep them in your mind.
0:29.5	We're actually going to talk about them right out loud today.

1:38.0	Yeah, and it goes to our very identity.
1:41.4	We emphasize, I'm a child of God a lot, and we should. This is an even more specific. Not only
1:49.0	are we children of God, we are House of Israel. What does that mean? Ross, what are you going to take
