0:00.0	Well, thanks for tuning in to this episode of the Sword and Trial today.
0:04.1	Graham and I have the opportunity of interviewing Megan Basham, who is the author of a blockbuster
0:10.0	forthcoming book called Shepherds for Sale.
0:13.5	This is a book that every Christian is going to want to read.
0:17.0	Every Christian pastor should be required to read because she documents how leftist
0:23.8	organizations, billionaires, have their eyes on evangelical Christians and trying to steer us

0:39.3	pass this podcast on to others. This is one that every Christian should listen to.
0:50.7	Welcome to the Sword and Trial. The Sword and Trial is a podcast of founders' ministries and founders

1:23.2	were coming out in a matter of hours. But we've got to wait until July. Is that correct for your new book
1:29.1	to come out? Yes. I wish that too. But I had a little bit of a bumpy road to publication. So we
1:35.6	kind of had to shift gears in that delayed thing. Yeah. Well, I'm interested in that bumpy road.
1:40.5	You've talked to me a little bit about that. But the title of the book is Shepherds for Sale,
1:43.9	how evangelical leaders traded the truth for a leftist agenda. That's not quite as long as
1:50.9	the typical Puritan titles, but it is almost just as informative as the Puritan titles. You know,
