| 0:00.0 | Welcome to another episode of Listen, Learn, and Love, hosted by Richard Osler. |
| 0:10.4 | My guest on today's podcast is a returning guest, author, and Facebook, social media guru, |
| 0:18.4 | and just all around great guy, Drew Young. Welcome back to the podcast, Drew. |
| 0:22.7 | Thanks for having me, Richard. Drew is on episode 276 where he talked about his new book |
| 0:30.0 | that's out called. Tell our listeners the name of your book and where to find it. |
| 0:33.7 | The meaning of your mission and you can find it on Amazon. It's there for the whole world to see. |
| 0:39.3 | And just if people want to go back to 276 and hear the whole podcast, just give our listeners an overview of the focus of that book. |

| 1:28.7 | kind of help walk you along that journey as well. It's a great book. And I've seen many people |
| 1:34.7 | share it on social media. I know one early release missionary put it on his Instagram story. It's got |
| 1:41.5 | 42 ratings on Amazon, perfect five star. I just encourage everybody to go |
| 1:46.9 | check out that book. The principles in that book are broader than just early release missionaries. |
| 1:51.8 | It's about helping people in our church that just have difficult things that come their way and |
| 1:57.7 | helping to feel accepted love and de-shame some of these more difficult |
| 2:02.0 | situations. |
