The J1:27 Podcast

Often, we as dads are overcritical of ourselves, and it is time that we realize that a lot of good happens in our families because of us and the vital role we play. Today I am joined by my dear friend, Dean Hawk. In today's episode, Dean shares incredible wisdom and insight about his journey as a dad, a youth pastor, and a lead pastor. May this episode bless you.

James 1:27 
"True spirituality that is pure in the eyes of our Father God is to make a difference in the lives of the orphans, and widows in their troubles, and to refuse to be corrupted by the world's values."
