This is such a great episode! I want so badly to share this with our staff and fellow pastors but the title is a little senstive. I don't want pastors to think, that I think, thier egotistical if I share it with them. Any suggestions on how to get this to them without coming off as...well, egotistical, myself...LOL. 😅 Thank you so much for putting out such great content!
