Show Notes

Today we have Paul swearing-in on the show. Paul is a former TV and radio sportscaster who transitioned to ministry after being ordained by the vineyard association of churches. Paul founded and led an evangelical church in Fresno, California for over a decade before stepping down to focus on content creation, coaching and podcasting . Through social media discussion groups and one-on-one coaching. Paul supports those questioning their faith and seeking emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

Paul was a former guest of the podcast, and I invited Paul back on the show to get some updates on Paul's  spiritual journey, and their perspectives on the world of religion today.
