Just listened to your first episode. Congratulations on a great show. The content was excellent, the honesty awe-inspiring, and the technical side was professional (I really like the way you broke up the questions with music in the middle). Glad you didn’t delete the podcast file (in reference to what you said at the end of the podcast). Keep up the great show. I look forward to the next episode.
Very well done!
Tom, what a very thoughtful and encouraging response! It is so nice to re-connect with you. After serving with you in the backcourt of the Woodmen b-ball team over three decades ago, it is now a privilege to serve with you in the ministry of God’s Kingdom.
Well done! Genuine, honest, raw, heartfelt and transparent! Thank you!
Thank you so much, Mark, for your encouraging words. Eric & I have been blessed by your support.
