In This Episode:
Tyler and Mike sit down with an old friend who is doing it right. Ralph Collins is a man of solid gold character and in his time with the guys, he paints a picture of a not-so-ideal childhood. Faith to Ralph is like breathing. It always has been. For Ralph, it's about living a life with no drama, keeping things as boring as possible. Humbly, he claims he has nothing to share. Mike and Tyler could not disagree more. Their conversation covers the country from coast to coast. From snowy Albany, New York to sunny Inglewood, California with a two-year stop in Auckland, New Zealand. The end result is a living witness that the gospel of Jesus Christ is the best way to live. Amen Ralph Collins. Thank you for the life you are living. Keep going brother!
