John dispenses with the ordinary and reaches people across the spectrum from atheists to theologians. He will both challenge your long held assumptions yet console you with the grace of the gospel. Listen to be inspired and encouraged.
No cap.
Aside from the incredible innate podcasting technical skills (vocals, etc.), topics discussed on this show are invaluable for anyone desiring edifying development. John is wise beyond his years and continues to consistently publish all kinds of powerful material. Highly recommended for late 20’s!
I love John’s style. The topics are relevant, the discourse easy to follow and simply put while still being challenging and thought provoking. No bells and whistles just a chat over coffee. A great listen.
This man's voice is like butter... I could listen to him read a cookbook. However, in this podcast he is dicussing important insights and deeps thoughts. That's even better than a cookbook. I also love his other podcast - J3 Youth Ministry!
