uh books
yes
mainly i read the Bible these days
that's very good i do too
good that's great to hear uh and Christian literature uh i've kind of i used to read a lot of uh novels
uh-huh
but it seems as though if you really want to set a time side time to read the Bible and you work and and whatever uh that pretty well takes up your time for reading
uh-huh
yeah it does it
and i i been praying that God would put a desire to read the Bible in my heart and he really has it's getting to where a just really want to read it
that's good
that's good it it it's uh it's hard for me to find time also to read uh a lot of times i do just read magazines and stuff like that for
for you know because i don't have a lot of time but when i do get to sit down and and read i like to read the Bible and i like to read i read to my daughter a lot too
do you
and uh i like to read you know Bible i have Bible storybooks so i like reading those to her and she really enjoys those
uh-huh uh-huh
so that's good and it and it's kind of short because we don't woe don't have a lot of time
uh-huh
to read so
it's real enjoyable
yeah
for both of us

right
well that's neat well i i have a my daughter has Precious Moments collection and i like that because it's a it's real easy to
uh-huh
uh follow for her you know uh gosh if if i read straight out of the Bible to her she'd never understand any of it
well it's hard for me
that's right
it is it is real hard to to follow and understand and
uh-huh
uh
i've got a Bible that uh has a little bit of a uh a glossary in the back and it helps explain who people are that's that's about the hardest thing is who's related to who
i know it and especially it's hard to keep your interest in those begats
yeah
yes yes it sure is but but it is good reading and it's good for us and and everything i really do enjoy it
uh-huh that's right
but uh
i also but then on the other extreme i like to read uh

but they're real
it's all the did you ever read the uh uh

oh those hedges when they started moving whenever they they made that into a movie i was thinking oh my gosh if they show that i'll just die for some reason that scared me more than anything
yeah yeah
yeah
yeah that is he just brings stuff alive you know you could just visualize everything that's
yeah
and that was a pretty scary movie too
yeah i think they did a pretty good job but they didn't follow it exactly but they did give it you know do it justice
yeah
uh-huh that's right
