Summary
The start of tonight's show is a little different. The Confessionals had a record month in July with 751,000 downloads and as I pondered where the show was at with its reach I began to wonder who is hitting play on a weekly bases. With the horrific shootings over this past weekend, I felt an overwhelming sense of obligation to speak to some of the people that might be listening that are thinking about hurting themselves or other people. For the first 30 minutes, you will not hear your typical introduction to a weekly episode. I don't like living with regrets and if I didn't say what I felt inside I would regret it in the morning. So as much as I bounced back and forth on whether or not to do something different I decided to go for it and I hope that it reaches someone that needed to hear something that I said.
After the extended introduction, we bring on Kimberly who shares about here haunting experiences living in a few apartments in the midst of some really bad life circumstances. Some of the things she describes sound completely terrifying to have to go through yet she came out seemingly upbeat about life!
