The MAKEWAKE Podcast

by David Baker

Our goal at The MAKEWAKE Podcast is to provide a space for people to find community. So I ask you...will you join us? This community of people will commit to exploring what it means to love, care and influence our world, were we lift people up, rather than tearing them down. People can’t live without meaning, purpose, and one another. The secular world can’t seem to offer that. So I ask you, will you join me in a time where community might be one of the most important things we could ever be part of creating. This podcast will shine light on voices that are living this out.
