Happy weekend! What was your week like? Mine started out normally, then quickly collapsed under the weight of my Thursday and Friday, but we’re not going to talk about those days.

It’s December so here’s my random gift for you. A two-fer podcast review, both of which are podcasts I highly recommend. Seriously, go listen to them! Let’s start with The Message.

Without getting in too deep, the last few years have been tough on a lot of us for a variety of reasons. Many things haven’t exactly gone the way that we would like them to.
