In this Episode Save Sikele, a mentor of mine and my brother Darren Purdy talk about how to find mentors.As a young man or woman, you NEED to FIND a Mentor. Because one day YOU need to become a mentor for someone else. The world will only change when we learn to be mentored and mentor.

Talking with my brother Daniel Purdy is always a great encouragement to me. Whether you agree or not I hope you find it insightful. We will discuss Mentorship, Parent child relationship, and how church traditions effect the family dynamic.

In this new series my goal is to talk to people about their observations and life events. I want to draw out peoples real thoughts. No matter the topic I want people to be open about what they really think. Whether it be about the state of christianity, the church, theology, and find out what has shaped them. Some will be very open and others not so much. But the goal to to know them and the thoughts they are cultivating.

Today our guest is Levi Tolbert: Levi grew up in the church. He has grown up in the Independent Baptist world and we will talk about the short comings and great blessings of this upbringing.

Welcome to an update on my personal recent life changes and the podcast. I also want to talk about a global mindset and how we can be effective in ANY place.

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.

Josh Selvidge - An amazing Christian, Father, Husband, Attorney, and Army paratrooper. He joins me on the podcast to talk about what it is to walk with God and tips for young people learning to walk with God.

Andrew and Ale Dabbs live in Romania working in the ministry and doing a bit of travel to bordering countries.

I have really enjoyed my time so far with the I.M.S.I. team and want you all to know some of them as well. Joshua has a powerful testimony where God showed himself strong and good.
