0:00.0	Welcome to Verity. I'm your host, Felicia Masonheimer, an author, speaker, and Bible teacher.
0:07.0	This podcast will help you embrace the history and depth of the Christian faith,
0:11.8	ask questions, seek answers, and devote yourself to becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ.
0:18.2	You don't have to settle for water down Christian teaching. And if you're ready to go deeper,
0:23.3	God is just as ready to take you there. This is Verity, where every woman is a theologian.
0:30.3	Welcome back friends. If you are listening to this episode, we are need deep in the women's

2:16.4	those things because it's so important to see how it has morphed and changed over the years.
