Just Talkin' About Jesus
A place with real people sharing their real faith.
What was the moment when you first realized how real Jesus is?
Tell me about your But God moment.
Have you had moments when you were so low you could only rely on your faith?
What makes you joyful when the rest of the world isn't?
These are a few of the questions that lead my interviews.
Once a month we have a roundtable chat with a few people about a topic.
