Cheryl Potter

In this episode you will get to know the lovely Cheryl Potter. She shares the heart wrenching story about the adoption of her two girls. She explains how God had perfectly orchestrated their new family structure. Cheryl’s passion and love for children didn’t stop there. Her and her husband are doing amazing work for children in Uganda and the Philippines. They bring a light and a hope to the darkness these children are living in. I wonder what our world would look like if we could all be more like Cheryl and Kip.

The Leonardi Boys

In this episode I’m speaking with Samuel, Michael and James. Mandy and Joseph Leonardi raised their boys to be the most polite kids, always ready to lend a hand. The interview was conducted in between the riding of electric scooters and what seemed to be a live remake of wrestle mania. The main thing that seemed important to each of them was to help others, and pray for those that are sick, and also to pray for their dog. It was a different interview for sure, as I found that children do not elaborate on questions haha! It’s a lighthearted episode, just something a little different for you to listen to this week.
