Just when I felt safe that something of this magnitude could NEVER happen to me again...well, you'll hear my tale. I've named this episode after a children's nursery rhyme. But, I don't want that to detract from the serious nature of this episode. I would hope, at least, that it helps to ease the pain of this story...at least for me.

For 4 days I was ebraced by the spirit of...Cursillo. This is a special retreat to help bring me closer to Christ, and to accept the responsibility of bringing others, too. I hope you enjoy this one, as always, and look forward to any comments you might have.

And, lastly..."Ulbreya!"

Julius Strowder is my guest on this episode. I cannot think of a more diverse individual. He's a night security guard in the evenings, and by day he does what he loves: ministry. From music to helping the homeless, this 1-man show is destined for bigger things. His song title is the title of this episode. Hope you enjoy it!

This has been the most emotional thing I may have ever recorded. Check that: IT IS. My stepmother's name is Ida Imogene. She HATED that name! Instead, she loved "Jeanie"...and so did all of us...

In this episode, I recount stories I wrote during my incarceration and afterward. The story of my friend, Brian...to "The Puzzle Piece"...to my being saved by my second Baptism. I hope you enjoy them, get to know a little more about me...and, perhaps, take something from this that will inspire you, give you hope or bring you closer to Jesus Christ. Amen!

In this episode, I speak with Joe, an immigrant from Ghana, Africa. Now an American citizen, Joe has come to this country to give his family the start at a new life...the American Dream. He recounts his Ghanian culture and his walk with Jesus Christ.

Listener discretion: some raw language and graphic descriptions of war. Exercise caution.

In this episode, I talk with Curtis Roberts and learn about his incredible story of incarceration at San Quentin for 29 long years. Curtis discovered his faith early in life and this is what carried him through this incredible ordeal. We learn about the "3 Strikes" rule in the California judicial system...including his conviction for a crime he did not commit. He was sentenced to a 50 years-to-life term. (Some sensitive material including a story of rape.)
