Special thanks to those that created a mini-episode. Shout out to Michelle Rayburn of the Life, Repurposed podcast for her contribution of cheesy puns and wisdom. Also we are grateful for Meg Glesener of the Letters from Home podcast for sharing insight from the story of Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist. Last but certainly not least we were thrilled to have Chris Staron of the Truce podcast back on the show to share a winter story of endurance.
