Thank you guys for listening or watching. We are excited to continue to produce more episodes and live out our mission for the coding community and tech industry. But before you leave, we left you the verse of the episode for you to read and be inspired by. God Bless!
Verse of the Episode:
"In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls." - 1 Peter 1:6-9 ESV
