Pastor Mike Kelly, who shares his experiences in ministry, particularly focusing on missionary work in Brazil and Africa. The conversation touches on the deep spiritual hunger of people in these regions and how this hunger leads to a heightened sense of God's presence and the occurrence of miracles. Pastor Mike contrasts this with the United States, where he feels that church services are often too structured, limiting the movement of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Mike recalls how in Brazil, people were eager to experience God, and worship was a powerful and unscripted encounter that opened people up to receive God's word. He emphasizes that when people hunger and thirst for God, they will be filled, and this dynamic was particularly evident on the mission field, where both he and the local believers experienced a deep, mutual strengthening of faith.

The discussion also reflects on the importance of being open to wherever God leads, with Pastor Mike expressing a sense of privilege in having served in various parts of the world and witnessing extraordinary things through his ministry. The conversation is set against the backdrop of a more casual, relational context, with Pastor Mike reminiscing about past conversations and shared experiences with his nephew, Phil.
