0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life and the time it takes to get to work.
0:10.0	My name is Patrick Miller. And I'm Keith Simon. You only trust people to the degree that
0:16.2	you know them and believe that they are trustworthy. It only makes sense, doesn't it? And it's true of Jesus as well.
0:25.0	If you want to trust Jesus with more and more of your life,
0:28.0	then you've got to get to know him better.
0:30.0	You'd be an absolute fool to trust your life to someone you don't know.
0:35.0	When we read the stories in the Gospels, we are often a little too quick to jump right
0:40.5	to the application to our lives. In other words, how does this tell me how to live?

1:21.2	This boat they found, it was 26 and a half feet long, 7 and a half
1:25.3	feet wide, and 4.5 feet high. Carbon 14 technology dates the boat back to the
1:31.7	time that Jesus lived. Now interestingly enough for
1:35.1	the story in the Gospel of Mark that we're looking at the recovered boat had a
1:40.0	deck where people could either sit or lie down. It looks like there was room for
1:45.4	about four rowers and the boat had a maximum capacity of about 15 people.
1:50.3	So back to our story. We're told a furious storm rose up and almost sunk the boat.
