Thanks Vince. You guys can pick your choice of seats, whichever you like. I'm so glad you guys are here today.

I'm going to introduce Vince first and then Ravi. Let Vince chair just a little bit of his own story because before you

Really want to know what somebody has to say you really want to know who they are and where they're where they're from in life

So Vince is newly the director of the Zacharias Institute

Which I hope that you'll find out more about in coming days actually based here in Atlanta Georgia a year around

equipping and training center for people to grow in their faith and their confidence and who God is

And Vince is going to be heading up the work there

They've already had their first major workshop just happened in the last few days

They have another one coming up in July that I'll tell you about before we end today

But Vince is educated at Princeton and Oxford and he's also a great athlete

Was a varsity soccer player at Princeton so I just like to throw that in there because people are you can't be smart and be an athlete at the same time

You have to pick one or the other but you manage to excel on a lot of fronts and so Vince give us just a thumbnail sketch of your story

And how you got to passions that he church today not literally, but you know generally

Yeah

Thanks, Louie wonderful to be here my wife Joe and I we just moved to Atlanta about eight months ago from Oxford

England we came to Atlanta not not quite as cool was outer space

but we're we're thankful to be here and a bit about my story I

showed up at at college. I showed up at Princeton

thinking that

Christianity was really for people who didn't think hard enough

You know sort of people who had turned off their brains. I'm thankful

I met a couple of people who challenged me to read the Bible for the first time. I was always good for a challenge
