1
00:00:02.319 --> 00:00:06.080
Looking at our world from a theological perspective. This is

2
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:12.839
the Theology Central podcast, making Theology Central. Good evening everyone.

3
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:16.519
It is Thursday, August the twenty ninth, twenty twenty four.

4
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:20.600
It is currently six thirty pm Central Time, and I

5
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.280
am coming to you live from the Theology Central studio

6
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.640
located right here.

7
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:29.960
In Abilene, Texas. Now.

8
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.000
Earlier today, I received an email and at first I

9
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:36.240
paid no attention to it because it had something like

10
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.399
Hallman Bibles or something in the subject line.

11
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:43.759
And I'm like, okay, I just got a new Bible.

12
00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:46.159
I got a new Bible a couple of months ago,

13
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:49.799
maybe maybe four months ago, I can't remember exactly. So

14
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:52.359
I've had I've had a couple of new Bibles recently,

15
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:54.560
so I've got plenty of Bibles.

16
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:55.079
You know.

17
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:57.399
Maybe I'll look at it, maybe I won't. And so

18
00:00:57.479 --> 00:00:59.520
I was doing I was going through my emails, checking

19
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.280
other things. I ended up accidentally kind of just tapping

20
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.439
on it, and then it came up and I'm like,

21
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:07.280
wait a minute, wait a minute, that's not that's not

22
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:07.840
a Bible.

23
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:08.799
Wait what is this?

24
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:12.599
And I started looking at it and I'm like, whoa

25
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:19.000
wait a minute, Wait a minute, this is the Protestant

26
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:23.519
version of the Liturgy of the Hours. This is the

27
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:27.040
Protestant version of what is known as the Divine Office.

28
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.959
And I'm like, oh, wait a minute, this could be

29
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.599
interesting because not only in my own mind have I

30
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.799
thought about creating kind of a quote unquote Protestant, non

31
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:44.719
Catholic version of this so that non Catholics could possibly

32
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:49.680
benefit from it. So I've always thought about trying to

33
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.599
produce something like that, But it looks like someone actually has.

34
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:56.799
But I also know I've spent oh, I don't even

35
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.519
know how many years telling people about the Liturgy of

36
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:02.840
the Hour, the Divine Office, going all the way back

37
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:06.599
to how the early Church prayed. They borrowed from Judaism,

38
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.840
where there were set hours of the day to pray,

39
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.879
and then the Early Church carried that over from Judaism

40
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.840
and designed what we'll we'll refer to as the Liturgy

41
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:18.400
of the Hours of the Divine Office. Where there is

42
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:22.439
morning prayer, there is you know, we'll call it afternoon

43
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:25.960
or early morning or late morning or mid afternoon prayer,

44
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.599
and then there was early evening prayer, and then there

45
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:30.680
was night time prayer, and there was there was Office

46
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:33.319
of the Hours there were other names for them. There

47
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:35.319
was I think at one point there was like seven

48
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:39.719
different times of prayer, and typically what they prayed was

49
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:44.120
well scripture, mainly the psalms. It was designed that if

50
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:46.479
you would kind of follow the Divine Office the Liturgy

51
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:49.039
of the Hours, you would basically go through all one

52
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:51.439
hundred and fifty palms, and basically in a month and

53
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.639
four weeks, right and you would you would go through

54
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:57.199
it over and over. Other readings were thrown in. There

55
00:02:57.199 --> 00:02:59.960
would be a gospel and maybe reading from the epistle,

56
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:03.479
from the Epistles, maybe from the Gospels. I mean, I've

57
00:03:03.479 --> 00:03:05.719
gone through them before. I've given you examples of what

58
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:08.919
they look like, what they sound like. I told everyone

59
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:11.759
about the four volumes the Liturgy of the Hours, which

60
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:15.199
is somewhat expensive, you know, well over one hundred dollars

61
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.639
for them, and I've talked about that. I talked about

62
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:19.919
the Liturgy of the Hours and the Divine Office over

63
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:21.479
and over and over and over and over. And I'm

64
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:24.439
not getting in I'm not using all the terms perfectly

65
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.639
and their technical way which they're to be used. I'm

66
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.840
just throwing out the terms that i've utilize. The Divine Office,

67
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:33.280
the Liturgy of the hours. Typically I use the Liturgy

68
00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:35.759
of the Hours. I've even done teaching in my church

69
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.520
that here were the original hours.

70
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:39.599
And then they modified them.

71
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:43.000
And then Vatican two really had a major impact on

72
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.080
the liturgy of the hours being now used by the laity,

73
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.280
by the everyday person, and it's maintained itself in this

74
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.520
early church practice of praying at specific hours of the day.

75
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.560
Scriptures was kind of maintained within Catholicism.

76
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:00.159
In fact, if you kind of want more.

77
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:04.960
Or like kind of a more technical definition of them,

78
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:06.639
I could read it this way.

79
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.120
What is the Divine Office?

80
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:11.879
From ancient times, the Church has had the custom of

81
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:16.680
celebrating each day the liturgy of the hours. In this way,

82
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:20.560
the Church fulfills the Lord's precept to pray without ceasing

83
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:25.040
at once, offering its praise to God the Father and

84
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:28.519
interceding for the salvation of the world right the ministry

85
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:30.920
of the Divine Office. And so what is the liturgy

86
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:32.839
of the hours? The Liturgy of the hours is the

87
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.240
prayer of the whole people of God. In it, Christ

88
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:38.560
himself continues his priestly work through the Church. His members

89
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:42.480
participate according to their own place in the Church. And

90
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:45.920
their circumstances of lives. The laity, too are encouraged to

91
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:49.360
recite the Divine Office, either with the priest or among

92
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:50.839
themselves or individually.

93
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.720
The celebration of the Liturgy.

94
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:55.079
Of the Hours demands not only harmonizing the voice with

95
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:58.000
praying heart, but also a deeper understanding of the liturgy

96
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.839
and of the Bible, especially of the Psalms.

97
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:02.120
And I could go through.

98
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:06.120
A more you know, technical explanation, but it's the hell.

99
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:09.680
The ancient Church prayed. They prayed the scriptures, and they

100
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:13.079
prayed very specific hours of the day, so at the

101
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:19.759
very least morning, afternoon, evening, or at the very minimum, morning.

102
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.079
Afternoon, evening and night.

103
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:22.920
And then you had the Office of the Readings, which

104
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:25.920
was was again it's still prayer, but it's a lot

105
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.319
more scripture in the Office of the Readings, a lot more.

106
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.079
But all of that makes up all of those hours,

107
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:34.240
make up what is known as the Divine Office. Now

108
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:38.279
it's again, it was preserved and kept with in Catholicism.

109
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:41.639
I stumbled upon it. I bought the.

110
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.160
Four volumes the Liturgy of the Hours, and I may

111
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.720
I've told you before, it took me years to try

112
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:48.680
to figure out Okay, so where am I?

113
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:50.839
Okay, what? Okay, I gotta mark.

114
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:52.720
This part, then I gotta flip over to this part.

115
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.000
Then I got to flip back to this part.

116
00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:58.439
Okay, this it takes you know, five college degrees to

117
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:03.079
figure it out. I even said I talked to monks

118
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:05.959
in a monastery to help me try to figure out

119
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.360
how to use the Liturgy of the Hours because I

120
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:12.639
was I really wanted to understand it, and I've definitely

121
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.480
discovered the beauty in it. And you say, well, that's Catholic.

122
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:17.560
It's basically the Bible.

123
00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:20.079
There are parts of it that obviously we may not

124
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.360
agree with obviously, but for the most part, you're just

125
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:28.279
praying scripture. And so there's different times, different seasons in

126
00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:30.879
my Christian life where I'm like, Liturgy of the Hours,

127
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.519
Liturgy of the Hours, Liturgy of the Hours. How to

128
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.519
translate that over to say more of a podcasting ministry way.

129
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:43.519
I never quite figured out exactly how you do this,

130
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:47.120
How could I transfer this over in a meaningful way? Right,

131
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:50.240
There's times I've kind of led everyone through the Liturgy

132
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:52.800
of the Hours, and I think for the most part

133
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:56.279
it's always been met with a few people go oh,

134
00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:01.040
that's interesting. But the majority is like, don't care. Not

135
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:04.399
not part of my tradition, don't really care. I don't

136
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:07.160
care how the early Church prayed. I'll pray my own way,

137
00:07:07.399 --> 00:07:09.959
like and and and or others were kind of kind

138
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:11.519
of interested me, like I'm not going to pay that

139
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.240
money for four volumes the book that you know that

140
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:17.079
that much money for the books, or and so it's

141
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.040
it was kind of always met with a little bit

142
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:21.720
of indifference. There was always exceptions, but for the majority

143
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.720
somewhat in different and I understand. But at the same time,

144
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:26.959
I was like, but it's so important to understand.

145
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:27.920
How the early Church prayed.

146
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.279
But so I've always been very much I mean, I've

147
00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:33.279
got here's one of the here's volume three of the

148
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:35.759
Liturgy of the Hours right here, Okay, I've got these

149
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:39.000
books all over the place, right I've got the large

150
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.040
version of the Liturgy of the Hours.

151
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:43.279
I've got the smaller of books.

152
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.319
So I've got these, I've got the Divine Office app

153
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:50.600
on my iPad, I've I've subscribed to different things that

154
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.360
has kind of a modified version of the Liturgy of

155
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:55.639
the Hours in it. So I've always been looking. But

156
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:59.560
it's always been Catholic, Catholic, Catholic, Catholic. It's very much

157
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:04.040
preserved and kept in within Catholicism, which then scares some

158
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:07.519
people off because oh, that's Catholic.

159
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:08.959
Well it's it's scripture.

160
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.839
But okay, if you, I guess, if we want to

161
00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:13.959
call the scriptures Catholic, be my guest, right, And I'm like, no,

162
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:18.800
that's not what I'm saying. I understand, but I've done

163
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.040
all my work on that and that sometimes I just

164
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:23.759
kind of move on. So I was again somewhat shocked

165
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:26.680
when I opened my email, and I'm gonna I'm gonna

166
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:29.839
just again go to the way the email looks. Okay,

167
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.320
So this was sent at ten forty nine am ten

168
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.720
forty nine am this morning, and when I first saw it,

169
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:40.440
I completely ignored it, right because the subject line is

170
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:46.960
Hallman Bibles new from Trevin. I guess his name is

171
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:51.240
Trevin Wax the N thirty that's all it says. Then

172
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:55.200
it says teaching he and his wife c R I N.

173
00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:57.360
That's all I can see when I look at the

174
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:00.279
kind of the email preview. So none of that caught

175
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:03.120
my attention right now, whatever whatever, And again I was

176
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:05.919
just going through my different emails, and I ended up

177
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:08.799
clicking on it. I'm like, wait, so when you actually

178
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:12.159
open it up at the subject line, then doesn't say

179
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:17.960
Hallman Bibles. It reads new from Trevin Wax, Trevin Wax

180
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:21.639
the in thirty Days series.

181
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.679
I'm like, okay, so what all right? All right?

182
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.039
What is this new n thirty day series? Well then

183
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:31.240
then it has underneath that Hallman Bible, so then I'm like, oh,

184
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:32.360
it's some kind of bible.

185
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:34.000
What is this? Right?

186
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:38.240
So again I was just I was almost indifferent, like whatever,

187
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:40.840
I'm you know, I'm doing this, doing that not. I

188
00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:42.759
don't really you know, I'm just gonna be on. I

189
00:09:42.799 --> 00:09:44.840
didn't really care one way or the other. So then

190
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.559
I looked and it says and bark on a thirty

191
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.960
day Prayer Prayer Journey and bark on a thirty day

192
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:54.159
Prayer Journey.

193
00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:56.720
And I was like okay.

194
00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.480
So then I kind of looked at it and it's

195
00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:01.840
in the and there's this nice looking book.

196
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:02.799
It really looks cool.

197
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:04.840
But at first I thought it was a journal. So

198
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:07.159
now I'm like, oh, and bark on a thirty day

199
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:10.360
prayer journey. My brain almost just because I saw the

200
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:12.919
picture and I just immediately assumed it was a journal.

201
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.320
I'm like, oh, and bark on a thirty day prayer journal.

202
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:17.519
So then I kind of just read it differently. My

203
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:20.840
mind was just imposing the words that I wanted to

204
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.159
see there, or just was thinking.

205
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:23.679
So I looked at him like, well, that looks like

206
00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:26.080
a cool journal. I mean, okay.

207
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:27.799
But then I'm like, wait a minute. It says on

208
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:34.159
it letters of Paul in thirty Days. I'm like, wait,

209
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:37.440
that doesn't say journal. It says journey, Letters of Paul

210
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.919
in thirty Days Prayer Journey. I'm like okay. So then

211
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:43.840
I kind of I kind of like, okay, stop what

212
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:44.320
I'm doing?

213
00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:48.559
What is this? So then I read it? Hang on

214
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:50.840
if I can can minimize this, Okay.

215
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:57.159
I read this experience the Letters of Paul in a

216
00:10:57.240 --> 00:11:04.440
thirty day devotional with can essions of faith, prayers, songs,

217
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:09.320
and scripture readings three times a day.

218
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:16.879
I'm like, wait, what is this? What is this?

219
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:24.159
As you lift your eyes morning, midday and evening, I'm.

220
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:26.360
Like, whoaha, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's very

221
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:30.919
that's very liturgy of the hours. What is going on here? Okay?

222
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:34.000
Now this email comes to me from LifeWay dot com. Okay,

223
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:37.000
well that's not a Catholic publishing company. They're usually more

224
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:39.519
in line with Southern Baptist So I'm like, wait, wait,

225
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:41.919
so what is happening here right? So then my mind

226
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:44.480
is like I'm trying to figure it out. I'm like, okay,

227
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:47.279
so wait, you'll and it says you'll encounter the Savior

228
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:49.200
who stands at the center.

229
00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:51.440
Of all of Paul's letters.

230
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:55.399
I'm like okay, so then I scroll down. Then it

231
00:11:55.440 --> 00:12:00.799
says coming September to fifteenth. The Thirty Days Series bundle,

232
00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:07.039
it says experience the full collection in this series from

233
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:12.360
Trevin Wax. The Thirty Days Series bundles includes Psalms in

234
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:17.080
Thirty Days, Life of Jesus in Thirty Days, and Letters

235
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:21.919
of Paul in Thirty Days package and an elegantly designed

236
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:26.480
box set that makes the perfect gift coffee table book

237
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:30.360
set or a bookshelf display. And they got it and

238
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:32.320
I'm like, whoa, those looks cool. And there are three

239
00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:36.000
different colors. I'm like, okay, there's a green, there's kind

240
00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:37.919
of a redish, kind of a bluish, and I'm like, well,

241
00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:40.879
the Liturgy of the hours. They come in different colors.

242
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.960
There's a blue, there's a red. I'm like, okay, so

243
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:47.159
this is interesting. There's a green. Green typically is for Advent.

244
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:49.519
I think the Advent one is green. I think or

245
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:51.639
maybe the ad one is blue. I think that Advent

246
00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:55.240
one is blue. Ordinary Time maybe green? Okay, maybe confusing them,

247
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:57.399
I apologize. Or maybe lint is green.

248
00:12:57.480 --> 00:12:59.440
I can't remember. I should know.

249
00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:01.200
I don't always pay attention to the color. The one

250
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:03.759
I have here is kind of a brownish color. I

251
00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:06.480
don't know where the other ones are. They're oh wait,

252
00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:08.279
oh wait, there's the green one. Give me one second

253
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:15.440
and go get it.

254
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:18.080
It is ordinary time. The ordinary time is green, ordinary

255
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:21.840
Time is green. The brownish one.

256
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:25.000
Is ordinary time as well. So the green and the

257
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:29.120
brown are ordinary time. Blue I think is Advent and

258
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:32.279
I think red. Maybe around lent Easter maybe all right,

259
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:36.360
So so but immediately I've got my attention. They're color,

260
00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:43.360
they're different colors. They're thirty days. Okay they they I'm like, okay,

261
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:45.679
I'm really now, I'm kind of I'm really now starting

262
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.840
to get interested. So I scrolled down a little bit more,

263
00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:53.399
and then there's three pictures morning midday evening, and I'm.

264
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:56.519
Like whoa, okay, So then it says.

265
00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:58.919
Pre order the bundle, right, So I'm like, okay, well,

266
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.639
maybe I'll look at the Then there's a shop now.

267
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:04.559
But so I click shop now takes me to LifeWay

268
00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:07.600
dot com and there's the Letter of Paul in thirty

269
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:10.679
Days and I'm like, oh, that looks interesting. So there's

270
00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:15.440
some pictures. So I open one and it has canticle.

271
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:18.360
I'm like, wait a minute, that's literally from the Liturgy

272
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:22.600
of the Hours. It has a evening reading. I'm like

273
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.159
that this looks like even the print looks like the

274
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:28.799
Liturgy of the Hours. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. Look,

275
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:32.360
this cannot be happening. And so then I look and

276
00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:37.399
there's another page. All right, there's morning prayer, right, there's

277
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:41.600
a call to prayer, confession of faith. Can'ticle. I'm like,

278
00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:46.200
oh wait, this is designed almost identical to the Liturgy

279
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.960
of the Hours. Then I click on another page. It's

280
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:52.879
got the Gloria, the Lord's Prayer, the Blessing. I'm like,

281
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.759
for crying out loud, this is the Protestant version of

282
00:14:55.799 --> 00:14:57.039
the Liturgy of the Hours.

283
00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:57.919
This can't be.

284
00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:02.080
I've always I've thought about this, ver like fifteen years

285
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:02.600
to do this.

286
00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:04.639
Someone actually did it.

287
00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:08.480
So I'm like, okay, So I'm hoping they have ultimately

288
00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:12.360
four volumes. I'm hoping they could actually expand it and

289
00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:15.159
do more if they really wanted to, depending how they say.

290
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:19.039
So here here's I'm gonna give you what.

291
00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:19.480
To look for.

292
00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:23.279
If you go to LifeWay dot com, look for Letters

293
00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:29.840
of Paul and thirty days, look for Psalms in thirty days,

294
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:33.879
and look for the Life of Jesus.

295
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:34.440
In thirty days.

296
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:42.120
All right, And it looks like some of these could

297
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:43.159
be Is this what is this?

298
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:43.519
Hang on?

299
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:48.960
Is this a there's a download here? Hang on, it's downloading.

300
00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.600
It may give you a chance to see them, all right.

301
00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:53.799
I didn't even see this until right now.

302
00:15:53.840 --> 00:16:01.480
Oh yes, okay, all right, yes, So day one day

303
00:16:01.480 --> 00:16:05.399
one morning prayer, Call to prayer. Our King and Savior

304
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:10.399
now draws near. Oh come, let us adore him now

305
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:12.919
in the liturgy of the hours.

306
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:16.200
I'm gonna grab one.

307
00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:19.200
I'm gonna go to I'm just gonna go to there's

308
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:21.440
a there's evening prayer, and let's go to.

309
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:23.519
Morning prayer.

310
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:26.360
I'm just gonna go to a Wednesday morning prayer and

311
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:29.279
the liturgy of the hours, our daytime prayer.

312
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:30.960
And I know where's morning prayer.

313
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:34.639
There's morning prayer, right, morning prayer. Hang on, that's the

314
00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:44.679
office of the readings, morning prayer. Here we go, all right, Uh,

315
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.039
this is the morning prayer. What's known as an antiphond.

316
00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:51.960
Oh God, all your ways are holy? What God can

317
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.159
compare with our God? Now the antiphond is like a

318
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:59.639
short little statement, one little thing to draw your attention.

319
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.879
May be used to summarize the Psalm, etc. There's lots

320
00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:05.200
of reasons the antiphon could be for. So they're called

321
00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:08.480
a prayer. Our King and Savior now draws near. Oh come,

322
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.160
let us adore him, ladies and gentlemen. That's basically like

323
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:14.640
the antiphon. Then they have the confession of faith. I

324
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:17.359
believe in God, Father, Almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

325
00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.200
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only son, our Lord.

326
00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:22.279
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit,

327
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:23.519
born of the Virgin Mary.

328
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:26.440
That's the Apostles creed. And I'm like, you gotta be

329
00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:27.039
kidding me.

330
00:17:27.519 --> 00:17:30.359
This is like the this is like they have now

331
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:32.920
brought the Liturgy of the Hours really over to the

332
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:39.240
non Catholic world. The canticle is and in the in

333
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.039
the Liturgy of the Hours you have the morning prayer,

334
00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:47.759
you have him right, so you almost and not only that,

335
00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:50.119
I see in many cases you may have yeah, the

336
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:53.119
canticle that now the canticle here in this morning prayer.

337
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:55.279
I'm looking at week two in.

338
00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:59.880
The volume three, and the chemtical here is First Samuel

339
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:04.079
to one through twenty. Sometimes it's just scripture the chentacle here.

340
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:07.880
And this example is listen, Lord and answer me, for

341
00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:10.559
I'm pooring, needy, protect my life where I'm faithful. You

342
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.400
are my God, save your servant who trust in you.

343
00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:15.960
And that comes from Psalm eighty six. So they take

344
00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:18.759
the kenticle directly from scripture, just like the Liturgy of

345
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:24.680
the Hours does. Then the morning prayer is Galatians chapter one.

346
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:29.279
This is literally this is insane to see. So I

347
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:34.920
definitely yeah. So what you'll look for, I apologize I

348
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:38.000
got all carried away there. So what you'll do go

349
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:41.839
to LifeWay dot com. Look for Letters of Paul in

350
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:46.079
thirty days, look for Psalms and thirty days, and look

351
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.200
for the Life of Jesus in thirty days.

352
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:50.200
Now, at some point.

353
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:54.680
They're gonna combine all of these into a bundle. There's

354
00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.640
gonna be three of them in a bundle. And what

355
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:00.680
I think you should definitely want to look for all

356
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.920
of these and get all of these now individual they're

357
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:06.960
fourteen ninety nine. I definitely want to get one. I

358
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:10.759
want to get the psalms. I definitely I want to

359
00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:12.599
get one. I definitely want to get one, so I

360
00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:16.160
may try to order one here soon. And now, of course,

361
00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:19.720
if things were different, you know, back when the podcast

362
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:22.240
had lots of money, we would be giving away all.

363
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:24.440
Kinds of copies, back when we had all kinds of money.

364
00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.359
That's what happens when the podcast now, you know, as

365
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:30.039
the church is winding down or trying to sell the building.

366
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:31.240
I don't have that ability.

367
00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:33.279
I'd have to have people giving lots and lots of

368
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.000
money so that we always have money able to go.

369
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:39.359
All right, let's give away thirty copies. But I can't

370
00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:41.880
do that anymore. But I want you to go get

371
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.680
this for yourself. There are videos here. I don't there

372
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:47.599
was no way for me to grab the audio, but

373
00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:49.720
I want you to watch the videos and I want

374
00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:50.400
you to find these.

375
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:52.319
These are again.

376
00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:56.319
The email calls them the thirty Days series in fact,

377
00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:58.039
I'm going to go hang on, let me see how

378
00:19:58.119 --> 00:19:59.720
quickly I can find it. I'm going to go to

379
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:04.799
a lot LifeWay dot com, LifeWay dot com. I'm gonna

380
00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:18.519

00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:22.880
found the thirty Day Series bundle, right, So have the

382
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:25.039
The bundle's going to be forty one twenty four now.

383
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:27.240
It is going to be the Christian standard Bible. I

384
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:28.839
don't know if they're going to make it available in

385
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:32.480
a different and different translations at some point.

386
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:35.680
Maybe they will. But yeah, if you just type in

387
00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:37.680
thirty day series, you should be able to find them.

388
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:41.839
They look awesome, they really do. I love the cover.

389
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:46.839
I love everything about it. Here's an overview. The thirty

390
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:51.160
Day Series Bundle includes Psalms in thirty Days, Life of

391
00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:53.799
Jesus in thirty Days, and Letters of Paul in thirty Days.

392
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:57.839
Packaged and elegantly elegantly designed box set that makes the

393
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:01.599
perfect gift or bookshelf display volume. Author and teacher Trevin

394
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:05.680
Wax has crafted a devotional experience that guide you in morning, midday,

395
00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:09.000
and evening pattern. Now I'm just gonna say something that

396
00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:14.880
ticks me off. Trevin Wax has crafted a devotional experience

397
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:17.920
you basically borrowed from the Liturgy of the Hours, which

398
00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:20.920
has been around for like, I don't knowe eighteen hundred years.

399
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:22.640
I mean, really, it goes all the way back to

400
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:25.319
the early Church. It goes all the way back to Judaism. Okay,

401
00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:29.880
but all right, I understand he structured it, and obviously

402
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:30.680
it's a little different.

403
00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:32.400
But I'm just saying it's very.

404
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:34.240
When I'm looking at it, I'm like, I'm looking at

405
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:38.359
the Liturgy of the Hours, right, But so it guide

406
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:40.960
you in a morning, midday, and evening pattern, following a

407
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:44.440
scriptural precedent for praying three times a day. The prayer

408
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.279
and well, they forget church history. Here the scriptural precedent

409
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:50.640
for praying three times a day. The prayer journey features psalms,

410
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:53.440
other songs from scripture, confessions of faith, and written prayers

411
00:21:53.440 --> 00:21:55.839
from faithful Christians who have gone before us. Here's a

412
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:58.200
guide to praying through the Psalms, walking with Jesus and

413
00:21:58.240 --> 00:22:00.880
alongside Paul for a month by lifting three times a

414
00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:04.480
day to see and encounter a savior Psalms and thirty days.

415
00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:06.599
Across the generations, many Christians have made a habit of

416
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:09.079
praying monthly through all one hundred and fifty Psalms. Yeah,

417
00:22:09.119 --> 00:22:11.599
it's called the Liturgy of the Hours, the biblical song

418
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:15.240
that undergrid much of our corporate worship and individual devotion.

419
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:20.799
Over thousands of years of memorization, recitation, a recitation, and singing,

420
00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:23.119
the people of God have found in the Psalms a

421
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:26.599
God centered view of reality that speaks to all our joys, trials,

422
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:29.640
times of suffering, and experience of faith and doubt. Life

423
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:32.400
in Jesus here is a central figure. Jesus is the

424
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:34.799
central figure of the New Testament, and his life, death,

425
00:22:34.799 --> 00:22:37.200
and resurrection and exaltation is the heart of the Gospel.

426
00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:40.440
His story is foretold by the Old Testament prophets, anticipated

427
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:42.640
in the Psalms, and then explained by the apostles who

428
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:44.799
witness his work. But nowhere do we see him more

429
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.519
clearly than in the Gospels. The four biographies that reveal

430
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:51.400
his ministry on Earth, Letters of Paul Well. They go

431
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:54.240
through the Thirty Day Series Bundles, feature of the highly readable,

432
00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:57.480
highly reliable text of the Christian Standard Bible. The CSB

433
00:22:58.279 --> 00:23:02.319
captures the Bible's original mets without sacrificing clarity, making it

434
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:05.720
easier to gauge with scripture life transforming message and to

435
00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:08.440
share it with others. Now, at some point they may

436
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:09.920
place it in other.

437
00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:12.839
And other translations.

438
00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:16.640
I don't know, but there they are. It's called the

439
00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:21.200
Thirty Days series. The thirty Day Series. Go to LifeWay

440
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:24.000
dot com and look for it. I will try to

441
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:26.839
send out a link, at least to those on the

442
00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:29.960
Church one app. I'll also try to post an article

443
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:33.559
about them. If you go to Beta dot Sermon Audio

444
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:36.319
dot com, look up Theology Central, go to the article section.

445
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:37.559
I'll try to have it there.

446
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:39.799
It may be a little while and maybe tomorrow before

447
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:41.839
I get all of that sent out, but you can

448
00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:43.279
go to LifeWay dot com and just.

449
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:45.599
Do a search right now for the thirty Days series.

450
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:47.359
It was easy for me to find.

451
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:50.359
You should be able to find. I definitely want to

452
00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:54.079
try one and see what I think.

453
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:54.680
I would love.

454
00:23:54.759 --> 00:23:56.839
You know, it'd be great to give some away, but

455
00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:02.039
you know, at this point, yeah, we you know, money.

456
00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:04.039
Needs to go to staying on the air.

457
00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:08.960
Okay, So but yeah, they look really they look really awesome,

458
00:24:09.759 --> 00:24:13.119
and yeah, I would prefer you know, yeah, I know

459
00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:14.519
some of you would prefer it to be in King

460
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:18.119
James I understand, but I mean I use the Liturgy

461
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:20.079
of the Hours and it's obviously not King James.

462
00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:22.680
So but there we go.

463
00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:26.680
Yeah, right now they have zero review because well the

464
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:27.880
bundle hasn't been sold yet.

465
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:29.920
That's probably why the other ones.

466
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:32.559
If I go, if I pick out the individual ones,

467
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:33.799
let's go that.

468
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:37.359
I don't want the e book. Yeah, here we go.

469
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:42.759
Okay, thirty one reviews for the Psalms in thirty days

470
00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:46.759
and they have five stars. So and there's a video

471
00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:50.160
here of it. And I was going to see if

472
00:24:50.240 --> 00:24:57.759
they have anything here. They got the reviews hanging, well,

473
00:24:57.799 --> 00:25:00.920
they don't take me, doesn't take me to surely the reviews.

474
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:01.960
I was gonna see what they have to say.

475
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:04.039
Possibly they have these available on.

476
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:09.680
I'm gonna I'm interested. Do they have these on Amazon?

477
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:12.839
Let's go to Amazon really quick, go to Amazon.

478
00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:15.279
But I just wanted to turn on the microphone really

479
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:16.720
quick and tell you about.

480
00:25:16.480 --> 00:25:22.039
This because I was like, whoa, this is really awesome.

481
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:22.880
Oh they do have it.

482
00:25:24.359 --> 00:25:28.599
Oh you can get them on Amazon for nine dollars. Wow,

483
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:35.759
and get it for hardcover for nine dollars. That's down

484
00:25:35.839 --> 00:25:39.119
fifty two percent. So you may want to go to Amazon.

485
00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:42.240
To get one that's really really cheap. That's really cheap,

486
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:46.960
really cheap. It's got one hundred and eighty one ratings,

487
00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:51.640
four point seven stars, four point seven stars, so almost

488
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:54.279
at five stars. They do have it on a kindle version.

489
00:25:54.319 --> 00:25:56.960
I think when you look at it, to me, the

490
00:25:57.039 --> 00:26:00.319
kindle version you would get the basic concept. But the

491
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:03.279
kindle version is nine dollars and twenty cents, where the

492
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:07.599
paperback is nine are the hardcovers nine dollars and sixty

493
00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:10.240
eight cents, So it's almost the exact same amount. Now

494
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:13.559
for some if you're worry about getting points from Amazon

495
00:26:13.720 --> 00:26:16.240
so you can get maybe a free book or whatever,

496
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:19.240
it's crazy you earn twenty eight points for the kindle

497
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:20.640
version and only ten points.

498
00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:23.160
For the hardcover. So that's a little frustrating.

499
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:27.880
But yeah, that's relatively cheap, right there, that's relatively cheap.

500
00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:29.880
So there you have it.

501
00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:36.519
Yeah, that looks really really awesome.

502
00:26:36.839 --> 00:26:38.960
It looks really really awesome. So I just wanted to

503
00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:40.920
tell you about it. It's one of those kind of

504
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:42.319
informative ones.

505
00:26:42.799 --> 00:26:46.200
So but I've been trying to tell everyone about this forever,

506
00:26:46.680 --> 00:26:48.400
and I understand the liturgy of the hours.

507
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:51.200
Maybe those books are much more expensive.

508
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:55.279
Than that, and it requires, you know, fifteen degrees and

509
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:56.400
trying to figure out, say, wait.

510
00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:58.720
A minute, are we here? Are we here? Wait?

511
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:00.519
So I go here for this part, then I jump

512
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:04.480
over here to this. It's all discombobulated the way it's organized.

513
00:27:04.519 --> 00:27:06.640
It's it's really you've got to mark this, and you've

514
00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:08.000
got to mark this, and you got to go, okay,

515
00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:10.119
now I'm here. Now I'll flip to here, and now

516
00:27:10.160 --> 00:27:12.400
this section are the instructions of what I'm supposed to

517
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:12.880
say here.

518
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:15.559
This is much easier. It's just straightforward.

519
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:18.200
You just open it up and boom right there, right there,

520
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:23.519
right there, right there. Now, it may be weird. It

521
00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:28.599
may be weird to in a sense pray scripture. You're

522
00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:31.759
just reciting the scripture almost as a prayer. It's it's

523
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:33.960
because I have a tendency to just want to read

524
00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:38.000
it right, and then I didn't exeget it and take

525
00:27:38.039 --> 00:27:40.839
it apart and question it and challenge it and all

526
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:41.440
the things.

527
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:43.279
That I may do. So it's it's much.

528
00:27:43.559 --> 00:27:46.359
It's a weird practice to you just you're just kind

529
00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:49.160
of praying the scripture. You're not praying for anything specific

530
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:51.960
for yourself. You're just reciting in a sense of God's

531
00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:55.240
word to God. And so it's kind of a an

532
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:58.000
it's a it's an interesting way the early Church prayed,

533
00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:01.920
and uh, well yeah, there we go. I just I

534
00:28:01.960 --> 00:28:05.359
wanted to bring it to your attention because it was like, well,

535
00:28:05.480 --> 00:28:09.359
it's now or never, right, because by tomorrow then Sunday,

536
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:12.240
I'm going to forget about this. So hopefully I can

537
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:14.559
have a copy of the book soon. All right, So

538
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:21.359
I'm going to stop there. Let me know what you think,

539
00:28:22.440 --> 00:28:25.559
all right, all right, everyone, have a great evening, a

540
00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:30.400
great Labor Day weekend. And consider the thirty day series.

541
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:32.480
And again if you look at Psalms in thirty days,

542
00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:36.079
you can find it and it says frequently bought together

543
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:38.960
Life of Jesus and Letters of Paul, and they have

544
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:41.079
them all together. I think if you can get them

545
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:44.880
all together on Amazon for forty two dollars and.

546
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:48.240
Thirty two cents. So they're all available.

547
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:52.880
On Amazon and atlifeway dot com. So you should be

548
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:55.200
able to find them, all right. If you need help,

549
00:28:55.279 --> 00:28:59.319
let me know. Everyone, have a great evening. God bless them.
