For The Love Of Us

“For The Love Of Us" was a podcast hosted by me and my wife, Carey. Back in 2015 my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. This podcast was a way to keep our family and friends informed with what was going on and to share our spiritual journey through a difficult time. Along the way, we also shared much about marriage, family, kids and ministry (at the time I was pastoring a small church in Rossville, Ga. Our hope is to give help and encouragement so many others who face similar struggles. For more episodes, please visit the website.
