Hello, welcome to the podcast. I'm here with my host Emily Langpole.

Hello.

Hi, Emily. How are you today?

Great.

You?

Good. It's what do you call the week after holy week? You call it Easter. I guess it's the Easter season. Yeah. Traditionally in the church. So we just celebrated Easter this past weekend all around hope and all around the world. And he's still risen. He has risen indeed. Yeah, it's really good news.

And speaking of really good news, we have some really good pastors who are here with us,

and they're both from the same place.

Yes, both from Hope Grimes, Pastor Andy Hermanson, and Pastor Murph Hudson.

Hello.

Hello, hello.

Thanks for coming here.

From Grimes.

Yeah, from our campus in Grimes. And so it's Andy and Murf, or. Hello. Thanks for coming here. From Grimes. Yeah, from our campus in Grimes.

And so it's Andy and Murph or Murph and Andy.

And for anybody who's like local and a sports radio kind of person, there was this Murph and Andy shows on the radio.

Now I think they have a podcast or something.

Murph is a local sportscaster. Andy is a local news anchor. Their friends, they do this radio show that's now a podcast. And they're

pretty well known. I think, you know, locally. So it's Murph and Andy. We have our own Murph and Andy.

We have you guys. I did a total double take at the stay fair when I walked by and saw somebody wearing a shirt that said Murph and Andy show on it. Oh, funny. You know, I should check that out sometimes. It's not why we thought you two would be good together, you know, as pastors at Hope and Grimes. It's icing on the cake, baby. It is icing on the cake. Let's just say it's kind of neat. Yeah, I don't like it. It's cool.

Works out, baby. It is icing on the cake.

Let's just say it's kind of neat. Yeah, it's fun. It's cool. Works out great. So what's happening up in the northwest part of town at Hope Grimes? What's new? A lot of exciting things, I know. We're having a ton of fun. Just obviously did Easter and had a great time with that. Holy Week was fantastic and just continuing to watch God change lives and grow people and the stories that we could tell.
