The Bible on Trial

If you have been listening to our programs for any length of time you know that even though the content is (frankly) amazing, and can't be found anywhere else on the internet in any form, you also know that we have been having problems with the 'jittering' of the sound quality for some time. This has been something of a conundrum, in that I have looked at a variety of causes, and larger variety of soluitions. to now apparent avail. 

I have cleaned the sockets on the mix board and the mic cables, I have changed out mic cables, changed microphones, upgraded the WiFi to 500 Mbps, upgraded our plan on BTR, changed the router, spent time with the and have done everything I know how to do to solve the problem and get rid of these 'jitters', except for one thing that I didn't think of until yesterday. The problem with solutions to these kinds of problems is that they are too simple. It was a combination of too many people on a single FIOS circuit in our 10 to 11 AM time slot, and not enough band width on our wireless service to keep things running smoothly, even with the upgraded wireless service. All I did was find and buy a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, and plug my Mac Book Pro into the router with an Ethernet cable - problem solved. The solution had been in sight for years, and I didn't see it until yesterday, because I didn't know what to look for.

We often look for solutions to our deepest problems with complex and expensive fixes, when if we had recognized what was in front of us we could have affected the fix we needed to accomplish our goal.

This is especially poignant when that problem is something we don't even realize is a problem in the first place. And this problem is that salvation does not work the way we have been taught. The solution is to read, learn, and practice the words given to us by Jesus Himself, that were in front of us the whole time.
