Note: This study had a few technical issues, at certain points the wrong slide would come up and slow christopher down. Also there was a lag in the video that causes a bad sync with the audio. Also, the other's who wanted to attend the study couldn't because of issues with the BeLive server. Our deepest apologies and these issues will be fixed next week for the study

If you have friends falling victim to anti-missionaries because of Matthew 1 make a point to send them this episode.
