La La La, La, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Ah, la, la, Greg Kokel here, and glad that you've joined me today.

We are just kind of in the front end of the month of August, which is always such an important month for us because this is where we recruit new cadry for our team.

We call them strategic partners, and we look to recruit 100 more strategic partners during

the month.

That's why we have as a Challenge B, one of the 100.

And I have talked about this the last hour, but I just love the illustration of William

Kerry telling, who is a great pioneer in missions, particularly in the country of India,

back in the early parts of the 19th century, late 18th century, early 19th century, saying, you know, I'm going to go to India,

and by the way, it wasn't easy to travel then.

I'm going to go to India into that dark place.

I'm going to go down to that dark pit if he said to his friend Andrew Fuller, you will

hold the rope.

And that's a great picture of the tens, the really tens of thousands of people broadly in our

standard reason community who are holding the rope for us as a team doing all that we do, one way

or another end. And a smaller group of those who are doing it in we do one way or another end and a smaller group of

those who are doing it in a committed monthly way and we call those our

strategic partners this this month is a focus on our strategic partners you give

25 or 50 100 or even more per month every month that's part of their commitment to

us they're holding the rope so we can do red pen logic, reality student apologetics conferences, all the work needed to run the outpost project, our radio show, our STRU, etc, etc., etc. All that we offer to you at no charge, because we have partners that make it possible.

So this is an invitation for you to be one of those partners this month, and you can go to

STR.org slash partner.

STR.org slash partner. There's actually a video clip there, and it explains a bit more about what we do and how the whole strategic partner thing works.
