Well, hello, hello and welcome to Reasonable Faith with Dr. William Lane Craig,

it's Kevin Harris and today's podcast is very unique

are curious about. You know Sean has a great story too and I encourage you to follow

you give to reasonable faith. A generous donor will match whatever amount you give

up to $300,000. It doubles the impact of your financial gift to the work of

reasonable faith. This matching grant is only in place until the end of the year so
