Susan and Rich talk about bagels – that's right bagels!  They'll schmooze about the best kinds, what should go on a bagel, and how bagels were invented.  Best of all, bagels remind us that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.

Susan and Rich remember growing up with the holiday of Sukkot (the Feast of Tabernacles).  But it wasn't until they came to faith in Jesus the Messiah that they understood from John chapter 7 that the holiday also finds fulfillment in Jesus.  He provides us with living water – and He is the light of the world!
