FOOLISHNESS Podcast with Brian Sumner

by Brian Sumner

It is human nature to interact with one another. In fact, we have been created for such. In the fast paced world of today; where do we find Truth, Meaning, and Purpose? Foolishness exists to bring to light the lives of many and the faith they have as living letters to be read by all, aiming to win some. As a teen Brian Sumner transplanted from Liverpool, England to Huntington Beach, CA to pursue a career as professional skateboarder. Little did he know that his life would be radically transformed through success, Marriage, divorce, faith, and redemption. Join him and his eclectic group of guests as they speak foolishness.
