Podcast needed!

Great content Mark, I appreciate the sensitivity in every topic. I know this will be a great encouragement to friends that I know. It is refreshing to me!

Solid Podcast, helpful.

Mark was my academic advisor during my college years. He was always organized, helpful and encouraging. This podcast is no different. It’s high quality and very helpful. This will either help you finish a post graduate degree in seminary or encourage you to start one!

Timely and Needed

Mark was my academic advisor at Crown Seminary. I can think of no better person to host this type of podcast than him. His encouragement to me during his time there was especially helpful and appreciated. His passion for this subject is obvious and infectious. I’m praying for God to continue to use him in encouraging us all in our studies.
