Dad tells us how he got his job with TWA.

I am super excited to introduce you to singer/songwriter Sam Wells. She is a worship leader who recently released her first EP entitled “For the Deflated.” Her talent and energy draw you into her songs from the first note. You can also see her musical and vocal talent on YouTube. Two of my favorites are the “Flew the Coop Sessions” and “Blind Covers.” Sam closes this episode with one of her original songs. I can’t wait for you to hear her!

In this episode, Pastor Michael Brooks and I talk about the origins of the Juneteenth holiday and the importance of social justice as a spiritual issue. Juneteenth is a holiday celebrated by most of the states in America, and Nike and other companies have begun recognizing this holiday. I first learned about this holiday when I was pioneering the large Convoy of Hope outreaches in Swope Park. We would partner with the Juneteenth celebration and provide services for thousands of people in the core of Kansas City. Pastor Brooks and I talk about the importance of racial reconciliation and justice.

This week, Dad tells me about the time he danced with Miss West Indies of 1955.

In this podcast, I interview Jeremy Cline and Riley Corbin with Faintheart, an indie rock band from Kansas City, Missouri. Faintheart was formed in 2016, and they have released three EP’s—the self-titled Faintheart (2016), The Overview Effect (2018), and Growing Pains (2020). The band is known for their recording and production skills, their creativity with online writing platforms, crowdfunding, and DIY ethos. They have deep spiritual roots and write about their struggles with faith and mental health. Their energy comes through in this fun and thought-provoking interview.
