Hello, relatable listeners. Happy Monday. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. It is theology Monday.

Every Monday, if you've been listening to my podcast for a while, you know we go through some

kind of theological subject or maybe something that's happening within Christianity that we need

But the reason I want to talk to you guys about it is because with the increase of online trolls,

this has been something that I have been thinking about a lot. Just the safety of my information,

making sure that if I'm in a location where there's public Wi-Fi, people aren't going to be able to

get my private information or my credit card information or whatever it is. I am very kind of

paranoid about that. And so I've been looking into ways to protect that. And I found Express VPN,

which is an awesome company. I'm going to reuse specifically what they do just so I don't miss
