Welcome to the Ransom Park podcast, John Eldridge and Craig McConnell here in the last days of 2013.

And, wow, what? of 2013 and how what a year it has been a great year.

Yeah, yeah, a really great year. Yeah, yeah, a really great year. Craig, as you look back on the year

here at Ransomed Heart, what are the highlights for you? What memories in particular what acts of God? What funny moments as you look back on a year at the front,

Yeah.

What stands out?

John, gosh, flood, a flood of memories, emotions, thoughts, major theme by far and away is God coming,

growth. I mean I'll hit a couple things. Our staff has grown together and matured and to see

men and women,

notable maturity and growth and strength and beauty and offering. It's been a phenomenal year for us, I think, is a team in growing. You know what's interesting in that I just

realized how many of our staff you think we're in counseling this year? I don't

mean in crisis I mean made the choice made the choice to go deeper with God

yeah and grow as a person and be stronger and be more whole-hearted because you have to be wholehearted at the front.

I mean when you live, when you live, you know, at one of the many fronts of the war of the kingdoms like the enemy

finds your weakness yeah and so you have to be as wholehearted as you can be and so

I'm just so proud for our team seeking wholeheartedness this year.

Yes, yes.

That's a beautiful thing, just the personal growth that we've experienced is, men and women.
