  • Many times after shows, I get asked how Tami and I met. I wanted to share that story with you all along with how I found my relationship with God. Much blessings.

      I can not agree more, story telling is such a lost art. Sermons nowadays feel so generic.

      Jesus knew this, of course: "Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, 'Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.'"
      Jesus knew that no sermon, no speech, no apologetics course or presentation could ever trump just telling the people you know what Jesus did for you.

    As another friend of Bill W. I had no idea Jeff is a sober alcoholic. Theres NOTHING he said that doesnt hit home. This man, who is absolutely hilarious, has such a strong, movie story. Only an alcoholic can understand every part of what he has to say. I have a legit 27 years myself and Im in awe of how much he conveys.

      @@shellyannhan8279 it never ceases to amaze me that somebody with months sober, wants to chime in when sobriety speaks up. You obviously left out some of the problems a newcomer wrestles with. Instead of being defensive, go back to your sponsor and get whatever you missed taken care of and when you've gotten done, maybe you wont chime in on something that has NOTHING to do with you. I cant sit here and explain what your idea of it is. The first thing any new person should learn is youre NOT that important.

    @CoffmanCanDo Před 2 měsíci

    That was an awesome testimony. Even as a woman and not an addict, I could relate to some of what you said from my own past. A little still lingers in the present. And I can relate to wanting answers. I'm happy for you that you found your answers in Christianity. I didn't. I was raised in Christianity. I spent around 50 years going to church, for quite a few years I was there regularly every week, at bible studies, prayer meetings, evangelistic meetings, seminars. I visited churches of other denominations. I never found the answers I really needed. Turned out for me, Judaism had them. And I'm going to do for you what people don't do for me. I'm going to trust that you found the right path for you and I'm not going to treat you like you're an idiot because you have a different set of beliefs. And I'll end with saying my husband and I watched a long video of your comedy and we loved it! It was hilarious. So relatable.
