Ann Clark ,

Appreciate

I love all of the concepts on this podcast and appreciate them carrying us through the pandemic.
The five folds gifts survey link isn’t working though. I hope it can be fixed.

Mom Fisch ,

Love this podcast

I really love Pastor Steph and Jo Saxon and then this season Pastor Edwin joined. He is such a great fit. This years messages have been so helpful as a lay ministry leader at church. Keep up the good work.

New Co-Host?!?!

I am so excited to hear that you’re bringing Edrin Williams in as a regular voice on your podcast! It can only get better from here! I first learned about him when you replayed an interview with him over the summer, and I know that his addition will make the discussions so much richer and more profound and full of wisdom and insight. So glad the Spirit prompted you to “shake things up!”
