Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast, bonus Friday episode.

I'm Robin and I'm here with Katie and Lindy as usual and we are thrilled to bring you this bonus episode.

You all have loved Melanie Shankill's story.

I told her how much you've loved her story.

And so guess what? We took your questions and answers. And we did another interview with her over on Patreon.

But because so many of you loved it, we want to share a little bit of that with you today.

Absolutely, Robin. You know, Patreon simply means that you are a patron of our ministry.

You are a friend of our show and you are helping us pay the bills each month. I don't think that

people realize that the Storytellers Live ministry podcast cost about $800 a month to run. And that includes

things like this website, our platforms that we host on, et cetera, et cetera.

So you guys, with your $5 a month, are supporting our ministry and our podcast.

Absolutely.

And the thing is, is you get so much bonus content in return.

You get a few stories within the story.

What that is is actually we do an interview with the storyteller.

We dig a little deeper,

maybe into an area like with Melanie's story today. You're going to get lots of parenting

tips as well. And then also once a month, I do an audio devotion related to a storyteller's theme

that just really ties in scripture and God's Word. And you just really dig deep into what God's

word says about the theme of the

storyteller. So you get a lot of bonus content as well. We have a lot of fun on there. And so we are going to give you a taste of Patreon right now. We're going to give you one question that Melanie was asked and her answer and how we went back and forth. And then if you want to hear the whole thing, you can join Patreon today.

We have links everywhere.
