On this episode, Daniel and Bryant sit with co-host Kadin Hamilton. We ask Kadin questions around his own life and role within the church as well as the origination of this podcast even being formed. And we also discuss how God places things in front of us with the eventual connection of those things leading us to something new, like a podcast. 

In this episode, Kadin and Daniel sit down with Director of Student Ministry Bryant Fisher. We talk about passions, purposes, callings within the church and how COVID relates to us now sitting on the other side of it all. Indeed, what a world and what beauty we live in together!
