The MV Perspective (The MVP)
by Michael Vorpahl
I will bring you a different perspective(s) to make you think more critically and with common sense.Some topics will be touchy and uneasy to talk about but those are the most important topics of all. With truth, honest words, and unapologetic enthusiasm I will challenge you to look at yourself, others, situations, and life. I want to impact men, women, military, student, teacher/mentor, and more. The beliefs and practices I follow might seem extreme but they have yet to steer me in the wrong direction. All I ask is for you to share this show with a likeminded friend.
