Fan Mail
hi Tim, Dave and Donna Jean. I listened to podcast number 13 and it was good to hear that Ernie was receiving his necessary surgery. Praise the Lord. Also loved your advice to the graduating classes. I thought they were excellent and filled with wisdom and motivation. I think as we get older, we have a tendency of not continuing to run the race that is set before us, but to get off the track, sit in the stands and give advice to the runners while eating hotdogs😵💫 ( or just to leave the arena altogether ). Of course that’s not me because I am such a model Christian.. haha! However, we all have tendencies to lose perspective during our journey in this life for different reasons. Thanks for a good wake up Call and keep up the good work. Dan Salvatore
