Andy is the real deal and this is one episode you would want to share, not just with other campus pastors, but with lead pastors that you know. Andy is trying to help pastors not burn out and that message is really important to all of us!

Jeff's internet connection was cut off at the end by his woman's director. She thought he was in the SBC but once he explained he wasn't, it was too late. Jeff now has to try to figure out how to have the internet at his church. His online-only members are very sad and miss him. His women's director has apologized but has already spoken with Hulu to make a documentary about Jeff. It's going to be called "The Rise and Fall of Lansdowne Alliance Church." Apparently, they got a hold of Jeff's phone and a bunch of shirtless photos of Tim are in there. It is all really weird.
Thank you for getting us to 100.
