Dan and Angie Leverance walked through multiple miscarriages before becoming parents through adoption. In their own healing process, they found that God had given them the gift to help others heal as well.
Angie's book, mentioned in the episode, is available here: http://www.lulu.com/…/a-tal…/paperback/product-22398156.html

One of the biggest fears of every parent is "what if I make a mistake early on that weighs my child down in adulthood."

Andrew Scott sees much of the future of spreading the Gospel happening both in the U.S. and around the world, as happening at work.
This episode is about how to find what you love, how to work with excellence when you're there, and how to share the Gospel with the people God puts in front of you while you're doing it.

In our first episode, we avoid the topics that have been utterly exhausted on the 24/7 news cycle, and ask teh question...how do we become better neighbors and friends with people who don't look like us?
Two wise voices weigh in.
John M. Perkins is an 87 year old civil rights leader who endured beatings at the hands of men who taught Sunday School in his own town. Rather than driving him into hatred, the pain transformed John to deeply understand that God wanted him to love everyone.
Perkins holds 13 honorary doctorates, and has served on the boards of World Vision and Prison Fellowship.
Sam Kenoly is a worship leader at Parkview Christian Church in Orland Park, IL. Before he had even finished high school, Sam was playing drums at some of the largest worshiop gatherings in the world.
