Text us here! Hershall, It is a wonderful privilege to be back here today... Please don't be alarmed when you hear the show. We're trying a new format just for proverbial kicks and giggles... (and we may have had both today) The giggles came often and the kick came by a listener who reminded Bro. Brad, our beloved song leader about his "Biden-like memory." He and Deacon Dustin both seemed a bit nervous when this exchange took place. Before then, Dustin told of a recent hunting experience with his son that made us all laugh (those that were paying attention). We told of recent chili cook-off that Bro. Brad took home a first place win from. We also talked about many other relevant topics... ending with a discussion on the second coming of Christ, so, Enjoy! Support the showConnect with us at https://www.podnme.org/https://youtube.com/@devinbirdsongEmail devin@podnme.orgFollow us on Instagram @podn_mePersonalities on Pod'N MePastor: Devin BirdsongDeacon: Dustin WakleySongleader: Brad CottrellHershall: Jud IngramNews Anchor, Dink Burbank: Josh SmithGen Z Boy: Brooks Birdsong
