0:00.0	Welcome to the Conversations that Matter Podcast. My name is John Harris. We have a full episode today. We're going to be talking about the latest article on the election from John Piper. Many have commented on it. I've been asked to comment on it quite a bit, maybe more than any other article.
0:13.2	So this is the episode where I'm going to do that,
0:15.2	but we're going to actually take a trip down memory lane.
0:17.1	I'm going to show you how John Piper has reacted to some other political issues,
0:20.5	some other elections, see if we can find some principles, or see if he's being
0:23.7	inconsistent and maybe draw some conclusions based on that.
0:27.7	We're going to, I have a few announcements I'm going to share with you as well.

1:09.2	I'll be honest with you, I'm just not.
1:10.9	I used to be checking the polls all the time. In fact, as a member of a Baptist
1:16.6	church, I probably shouldn't say this, but there was one time. I will just say it
1:19.9	was in a more younger immature state. I wouldn't do it now, but there was a time when I even
1:26.0	pitched a little money, I think it was like 50 bucks, that I put on a, I forget the name of the
1:31.6	website, but it was a website where people were betting on who would win what primary and go on to the general and I did well at first and then the guy that I thought would be getting to the general election didn't do so well and so I lost it
