    In this episode I have coffee with Malissa Kerr. It was so encouraging to me! This is the first of two episodes with her. he had so many good things to say that it couldn't fit all in one episode. The second half is coming soon. So stayed tuned for that. A few quotes from Malissa that I'm still contemplating: "That requires considering now what we're doing Now what we're doing for tomorrow or ten years down the road." "When they know what's expected of them, they will rise to the expectation. Otherwise they migrate to the lowest common denominator." "Our goal is to encourage them to become adults and to behave, live, use their gifting and serve as adult people."
