    Great episode and truly appreciate it when you both share your own struggles, challenges and where you have failed and then what you have learned through these. It adds much to the program and helps the listener to relate more to you both and the journey we all share. Thank you for your work and commitment to the spiritual life.

      Hi Mike, I am grateful for your comment, and thank you for taking of your time to listen. I was reading Teddy Roosevelt’s speech to men recently and was moved by this statement “I want to see each man able to hold his own in the rough work of actual life”. It is rough work at times, please keep us in your prayers as we do the work of actual life! You have our prayers this Lent!
