  • Amazing

    I have listened to every episode and find them so encouraging, engaging, challenging and just simply cause me to want to run to Jesus with more freedom. The episode on shame with Dr Curt Thompson makes me want to find those trustworthy people in my life and talk to them vulnerably. We all need to listen to these episodes.

  • 4/5

    Love the subject matter HOWEVER the constant interruption and JM talking over everyone and him not letting them even finish questions and thoughts is so aggravating. Often have to turn it off.

  • John Mark’s wisdom and insight 10/10

    Tried to listen to several episodes but there are too many voices/guests interrupting and talking over each other. Because of that It felt chaotic which hindered accessibility. That is a shame as JM’s content is stellar. The cluttered delivery/ excessive voices spoils it. I Would prefer to only hear John Mark. Perhaps he’s trying to share the spotlight but it doesn’t work.

  • Very helpful

    I love listening in to the conversations. I find the diversity of voices never fails to articulate questions I have and wisdom I need to hear. I really appreciate the variety of practical suggestions shared. Someone in the generosity conversation mentioned carrying gift cards for restaurants to give away to people on the streets. I’ve always wanted to do something but was kind of stuck. This idea has helped me get ‘unstuck’. Thanks!
