It has now morphed into a dialogue of life events with my faith being an integral part of the conversation, but also more! The list is as vast and as limited as my life experiences, so come take a peek at the many adventures I share with you. Folks of different faiths, agnostics, and even atheists have described these conversations as insightful, challenging, and entertaining. Hope you will join the conversation!
