Several years ago, Pastor and author Chuck Swindoll entered into a unique mentoring relationship with two of his grandsons, Austin Swindoll Thompson and Parker Nelson, both of them in their thirties. Both had endured difficult family situations during their childhood and relocated to the Dallas-Fort Worth area to be closer to their extended family. In this podcast John Coulombe and Wayne Rice talk with Austin and Parker about the relationship they now have with their “Bubba” Swindoll and what lessons they have learned from their mentoring sessions with him. And in a surprise development, they are joined on the phone by “Bubba” himself.
