| 0:00.0 | Prayer and fasting on this edition of Truth in Love. |
| 0:10.7 | I'm Dale Johnson and you're listening to Truth in Love, a podcast of the Association of Certified |
| 0:16.0 | Biblical Counselors, where we seek to provide biblical solutions for the problems that people face. |
| 0:23.2 | Today I am joined on the podcast with Pastor Brad Bigny, who's the pastor of Grace Fellowship |
| 0:30.2 | Church in Kentucky. He's been at the same church for 23 years now. Praise the Lord, Brad, for |
| 0:36.7 | that faithfulness and for the Lord blessing your efforts |
| 0:39.6 | there at the local church. So excited about that. And then he's been married for 32 years. What a |
| 0:46.3 | blessing and testimony that is as well. He's one of our certified counselors. Many of you who've |
| 0:50.8 | been involved in ACBC, know Brad well and know his teaching. Well, today he's |

| 1:26.2 | It's God's word and as as you use it, and you are |
| 1:30.1 | praying and crying out to him to take out hard hearts, there's some amazing things that we can |
| 1:35.7 | see happen, but I think prayer is a big part of it. And sometimes most Christians would be quick |
| 1:40.8 | to admit, oh, my prayer life needs help. You know, sometimes they'll admit, |
| 1:44.7 | oh, I should read my Bible more, but I think prayer, I hear even a little more sadness. Oh, I know |
| 1:49.9 | I should pray more. Yeah, it's like we know it's in the scriptures, but sometimes we struggle. It is a |
| 1:56.8 | wrestle. It is a discipline for us to pray. Now, you mentioned that we are people who love the Bible |
| 2:03.1 | in ACBC. And as we think through anything that we should be involved in and what we should be |
| 2:09.3 | practicing, we need to hear a biblical basis for that. And so, Brad, could you just talk to us a little |
