This Connected Podcast
This Connected shares experiences and point of views, highs & lows about faith, life, church, and whatever else comes along the way. The mission of this podcast is “To connect generations and situations about faith, life and whatever comes along the way, to not necessarily agree but be listened to.”
It's a podcast run and operated by me, a long time youth minister, father of two, whose passion for evangelization goes beyond face to face. It’s a podcast of encounter and accompaniment.
