Summary

Ken Williams is the author of the new book The Chocolate Cake Phenomenon: A More Delicious Way To Minister. In the episode, we talk about overcoming shyness and perfectionism in his youth, his mission and his love of Portugal, how he became a published author, a book he wrote with his daughter to get under his Mother-In-Law's skin and his newest book which details a beautiful way to minister through your talents. Ken is insightful, funny and so inspiring. You will love this conversation irregardless of when you listen to it. (Yes, we know irregardless is not a word. It will all make sense once you hear the episode)
