So I was hoping that you would tell us a little bit about the preparation that goes into these competitions, and how one event seems to flow into the next, and what the broader meaning and purpose of that journey is for you personally, and the aim and direction you feel you're working towards at this moment.
42:28
So my aim over the last six months has been to prepare and qualify for the world championships in Aachen, which is in August this year.
42:39
And I would like, if things work out well for me, it would be lovely to be part of the Australian team.
42:46
So I was a reserve for Paris, but here I am back again to have another crack.
42:51
It's good at Aachen because they take four in a world championship team, so there's a lot of very good upcoming young riders.
42:59
So they're pushing me, and I'm, I try to push them I feel like at this stage of my life, that's my job, keep everyone honest and keep pushing the, the, the young ones to improve themselves, which they are doing very well.
43:12
Very well, in fact.

How did you get exposed to it? What were some of the kind of the key experiences for you in becoming knowledgeable about it or just learning to love it?
3:54
It's a great question.
3:56
I don't know when I was converted.
3:58
I don't have a moment that I know about when I put my trust in Christ.
4:03
I know it did happen in a moment, but I don't know about it.
4:07
But I would say my journey with biblical theology began in the pew as a child.
4:12
So my parents came to Christ.

For me, as a New Covenant Christian, it means something slightly different, but those are connected by the underlying realities of the sameness of God's character and his moral will and those kinds of things.
