0:00.0 | Oh, I'm going back in the archives of my own life for this one, to the tune of when my oldest son, who's now 24 years old, was just four months old. |
0:10.3 | I'm going to tell you a true story about something God nudged me to do back then, continuing this month's conversation about some overlooked ways to serve God on the Jesus Over Everything show. |
0:20.5 | I'm your host, Lisa Whittle, and if you're new here, welcome. |
0:23.1 | If you've been around, you know how this goes. |
0:25.3 | Jesus, honesty, and straight talk. |
