    Ep. 18 - Progressive Christianity with Reverend Tom Gibbons (Part 3)

    Part 3 of 3 of a discussion with Retired Presbyterian Minister Tom Gibbons. We finish our discussion on mega churches. Then transition into how a church operates financially; how the church uses its revenue to help its members and the community. How "much is too much" with money and losing a church's focus on its mission and faith. Unpleasant parishioners.  And then we wrap up the episode by discussing how Tom and the church personally impacted me and my family when I was young.

    Ep. 12 - Jonathan Ward - CEO, Lead Designer - Icon 4x4

    Holy crap. Do you ever get to sit down with one of your nerd idols? Well, Jonathan Ward is one of mine. And he actually said yes to being on the show. Jonathan is a former child actor (Steel Magnolias, Charles in Charge, Fern Gully...), turned CEO and Lead Designer of Icon 4x4, a design and car restoration company that specializes in reimagining classic SUVs and cars into showcases of craftsmanship and modern performance while maintaining their vintage charm and aesthetic. This episode is so much more than cars and trucks, though. It's a conversation with a true, modern day renassaince man. Acting. Woodworking. Leatherworking. Industrial design. Vintage aesthetics. Philanthropy. Jonathan has does it all. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.Visit Icon's website: https://www.icon4x4.comPlease Donate to Go Campaign: https://www.gocampaign.orgFind Jonathan Ward and some of his work on Instagram: @icon4x4Sound Editing: Brittney Richardsonbrrproductionscctx@gmail.comTheme Song Produced By: Reggie CobyTwitter: @mrc0byInstagram: mrc0byHave recommendations for a future guest or show topic?
