Conversations About Life

My dad spent time during the summers with his grandmother in Annapolis, Missouri. His grandma and grandpa on his dad's side lived in Reynolds County, and his own parents settled down in Black, Missouri.

If you would like to suggest a guest for Conversations About Life, I'd love to here about it.  You can submit your suggestion here.

My mom comes from a family of preachers in the Landmark Baptist church. She talks her dad's Christian conversion while working in a field and also her own conversion experience.

My dad and mom grew up in rural Missouri and then moved to St. Louis as young adults. We start by talking about how they met each other and got married. Then we back up and talk about their home life as children. I think there's a lot more we could talk about, so stay tuned for more episodes.Note: As I explain in the beginning, we had some technical problems, and the audio quality is not very good. I'm hoping these conversations will be sounding better in future episodes.

Wendy Sapp was the pastor of Compton Heights Baptist Church in St. Louis, MO when my wife and I were married there in 1986. I left for the navy with my new bride and have only seen Pastor Sapp a handful of times since then, so I was happy to sit down with Pastor Sapp to get to know him better. I admire the joy Pastor Sapp has in serving God.

Pastor Sapp talks about what the church is like, his growing up experience, becoming a Christian and then becoming a pastor. He also talks about his daily prayer practice.

My son, Billy, and his wife, Sarah, live on the border of Texas/Mexico and serve at the Rio Grande Bible College. We talk about things that have influenced their lives while growing up, thoughts about illegal immigration and differences between the Latino culture and Midwest USA culture. I really enjoyed this conversation. They are a special couple. I hope you enjoy it too.

My sister, Cindy, is a wise and articulate person.  I was privileged to have this conversation with her about relationships.  I hope you enjoy it.

Note: The audio quality of these early episodes is not very good. It gets progressively better with each episode as I learn to record and produce better audio.

I enjoyed a conversation with my daughter, Ellie, and her new husband, Jonny.  We talked about their courtship before their wedding.  We also talked about a book they read together titled, "Equipped To Love" by Norm Wakefield.

This is just a few words about me and what's important to me.  It's mainly for those who may not know me very well.  I would be happy to answer any questions and continue the conversation over coffee.

I explain the idea behind the podcast. This podcast is made up of conversations with people about the important things of life. If the guest is religious, I'm interested in what that looks like in their life. We talk about life wisdom, daily routines and the satisfying things of life.

The first 7 episodes or so are not very good in audio quality.

I'd love to hear from you if you would like to leave any comments. Thank you.
