Welcome to The Big Impact Ep 261 - How $65.43 Changed George Forever 
The story of George Puia is beyond fascinating, especially when you consider that a self-described "stoner hippie" went through a complete life change when he began following Christ...and that the introduction took place in a most unusual way.
This is one of the great Jesus Revolution stories you'll ever hear, and somehow $65.43 is at the center of it. Listen, share, and be amazed at the wonderful ways the Lord works!

Welcome to The Big Impact Ep 258 - Rick and Jane's Walk Across America
How would you respond if asked to do something you knew was impossible? Something so difficult, so crazy, so beyond your ability that it didn’t even make sense. You’d dismiss it, forget about it and act like you were never asked, right? But what if it were God asking? What if you were absolutely sure that you had just heard God speak?

This is that story. It is the story of ultimate Christian Evangelism. It is the story of life-changing adventure driven by a desire to share the gospel. It is the story of two very unlikely people who God asked to walk across America. They were to walk from one side of the country to the other, in every conceivable kind of weather, facing what seemed like insurmountable odds, taking every step together and accomplish it in just six months.

As you read this memoir, you’ll take each step with them, meet the people they met, hear the prayers they prayed, feel their pain and celebrate their victories. This is the incredible, true account of their once-in-a-lifetime, and how it transformed their lives forever.
