Hello there and welcome to the Thinking Fellows podcast.

My name is Caleb and today I am joined by my father, Dr. Scott Keith,

and our friend and co-worker, David Ruffner.

Dave was on the last episode of the, no, second to the last episode of the Thinking Fellows

for Giving Tuesday, which was a fun episode.

And so far, I haven't gotten any negative criticism to my inbox yet, which I always await

when you do a topic like, what did we did giving and we did, what did I call it?

Stewardship.

Stewardship, that's right.

And we did stewardship, which, I don't know, I want to think the best of all the listeners out there,

but those are topics of which lots of people have opinions.

And so I was kind of waiting for an opinion that differed from ours.

And so far so good, though.

And I think Giving Tuesday was a success for 15 1517 it was um we managed to meet our

goal and then some on that day and uh but did we still have a goal don't we we do we uh on a hundred

and twenty five thousand dollar goal on giving tuesday we made it and uh now we have end of year

giving uh which is in a sense sense we'd love for a nice gentle wrap-up, but of course for our organization.

The year of COVID has touched us as well in terms of we weren't able to hang out with these listeners here.

Here we still stand, for instance.

So a loss of connection and energy there.

But God's caring for us. The listeners are gracious, and we certainly invite more of that.

Yeah, that's great.
