Great hearing from and “seeing” my friend Brent after all these years! It’s ironic the “preacher kids” that struggle with these same issues… some acting on their questions and other’s hiding behind a facade… but still struggling. There is, in fact, a deep yearning for authenticity!! I’m thankful that I was raised by a pentecostal preacher that ALLOWED QUESTIONS… and even… encouraged them! But this is a rarity in most of our circles. It’s very important to give ear to questions and allow discussion so that we (or others) can KNOW what we believe. Gone are the days of parroting the thoughts of our fathers… This generation is hungry for a REAL… GENUINE… PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP with GOD!

The video starts glitching at 37:10. I’m working on fixing that. The audio works fine though.
