0:00.0	Welcome to Tim Men of Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.0	I'm Keith Simon. I'm Tanya Wilmeth. and I'm Patrick Miller. Right now we're going through the book of judges.
0:16.0	Hey Patrick and I are starting a new podcast it's called Truth Over Tribe where we talk about
