Randy Hekman currently directs The Grand Awakening, an organization seeking revival and spiritual awakening in West Michigan. Previously, he served 15 years as a Kent County Probate-Juvenile Court Judge and then directed a succession of Christian non-profits. Randy's writing includes these books: Justice for the Unborn, Truth that Sets America Free, and Sweeter by the Dozen: Making Jesus the Lord of Our Family Size. He and his wife Marcia are the proud (and grateful) parents of 12 children and grandparents to 35.

In this podcast, Randy describes from both scripture and his own life why bitterness brings with it such bondage that grieves the Holy Spirit and opens our lives to Satan's torment. He also teaches the steps we can take to truly rid our lives of all bitterness.
