Ep. 129 Spenser EvanKo - Beyond the bars!

Spenser shares his life growing up in a Mormon home and what he eventually came to believe at 8 years old!“Beyond The Bars” is his life after leaving a career as a correctional officer…  but, it’s actually more of a metaphor for life before accepting Christ as his personal Savior and what life is like now as a Christ follower and the freedom he now has! “It was for freedom that Christ set us free.” Galatians 5:1We all want this thing called freedom, but it’s only found in a relationship with Christ! If you get a chance, connect with Spenser and get to know him. He attends Free Church in South Salem and is currently a youth pastor there as well! #Jesusfollower #beyondthebars _ _ _For more stories like this, go to: https://www.youtube.com/@BuddyJamesPuckettIf you or someone you know want to be on the podcast, please reach out to me on Instagram @conversationswithbuddy or text me at 503-851-8031. _ _ _About Buddy Puckett:Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married.  This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage.  We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well.  Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled,failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ! “Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6
