Summary
The crowds were pressing in. Demons were screaming. The religious system was hardening. And Jesus' own family thought He had lost His mind.

| 0:08.0 | Good morning, everybody. Welcome to Tuesday. It is May the 12th, 2026. Welcome to Before the |
| 0:14.0 | Before the Noise. My name is Chad Prather. If you're new here, just joining us for one of the first times. |
| 0:19.0 | Welcome. I see you guys there in the live chat. I'm glad you're there on R just joining us for one of the first times. Welcome. |
| 0:22.9 | I see you guys there in the live chat. |
| 0:28.3 | I'm glad you're there on Rumble, on YouTube, Facebook X, wherever you choose to watch the podcast. |
| 0:33.2 | These are my devotional thoughts, and I'm thankful that you guys sit in with me. |
| 0:37.3 | When I say devotional, I mean, these are just times that we spend working through the scripture, seeking the Lord, seeking the voice of the Holy Spirit, seeking the voice of God in our lives. |
| 0:42.3 | And I am so thankful that you guys choose to join me. |
| 0:46.3 | I got a number of messages. |
| 0:48.3 | I woke up to a number of messages this morning in my inbox that people had sent me through beforetheno noise.com on the contact page. And there's some folks who are really going through some |

| 1:45.2 | And then in Kema, Texas, we'll be doing some music. |
| 1:47.4 | So we do all kinds of things. |
| 1:48.5 | But who I have been is not important. |
| 1:51.4 | It's hopefully what I'm becoming and hopefully what we are becoming together in Christ |
