ALL PODCASTS ARE NOW FREE TO DOWNLOAD!!
Podcasts are developed and produced to bring God’s truth into your life regardless of your circumstances. While other sites might charge a lot more the information they offer, we never want money to come between those in need and God’s truth.
Often, the podcasts are expanded versions of what you may have read in the blog. Some are live recordings of previous speaking engagements on subjects that directly relate to God’s view of what a Christian husband and parent is. In addition, you might find recordings of messages and/or sermons by other speakers or pastors.

Who I Am In Christ). This material kicks off every speaking engagement
and is covered at the beginning of every mentoring relationship.
