In today’s show, Joey interviews his longtime friend, Maina Mwaura. Maina has dedicated his life to ministry and has served on staff at churches of various sizes and cultural diversity. He’s now a journalist and author and lives in Atlanta, GA. He’s written for Lifeway and The Gospel Coalition, and a few of his interviewees have included Evander Holyfield, Tony Dungy and President Jimmy Carter. Maina’s focus has been how faith intersects with every aspect of life, so we’re excited to have him on the other side of the mic today to share some wisdom on this topic.
