Description

Think of this as you've finished work for the day, or you need encouragement, or simply an outlet. Come on in, have a drink, and lets chat! 

The subject matter I’m going to be discussing will be about real world stuff presented with certain biblical and spiritual beliefs. Everything ranging from the Jesus tip, agree to disagree controversy, why you should celebrate your birthday after 40, an alien invasion, truth versus fact, struggles of being an entrepreneur, context of the Ten Commandments, Church or a house of worship, all the way to societal distinctions. A lot of this will also cover my 20 years worth of tales from the service industry.  Overall, what's most important is I hope people will start talking to each other again. Most conversations at the bar begin with a question. "What do y'all think?"
