Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast with your host, Emma, daughter.

Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with the one and only Kate Thorellgood.

Hey guys. Thanks for having me, Emma. You are welcome, Kate. I am glad to have you here. I see your smiling face nearly every day in the office, but I honestly don't know you that well.

So would you share?

I mean, as we always do, how you came to know the Lord.

Fast forward.

What are you up to today?

Thanks, Emma.

Yeah, I worked at Torchies during college, and I had been there maybe six months.

And there was a guy who came in every single Tuesday, probably a couple Sundays out of the month.

And he would ask me questions like, hey, you believer? Like, what's your faith and scale of one to 10?

And obviously me being who I am, I'm pretty bubbly, I would say.

I would say so. Thank you. You're welcome.

I would engage with him and just talk and have conversation and I'm like, yeah, I'm a seven.

Oh my gosh, I'm so great. You know, I love people. I called myself a Christian.

Let me pause you. For those who don't know the one to ten question, what is it and why is

a seven important? The scale of one to ten is when you get to heaven, like, what are you going to

tell the Lord? Like, I'm in because I'm a seven because I'm good. Or one, like, I wasn't

that good, but I believe in you. And then obviously, 10 is like, I'm confident I'll be having.

I'm confident that I'm meant to be here. And it's because of your son. And one could even be

no shot. Like, it could be like, I don't know. Yeah. So that was the question that he asked.

And I answered a seven because I was like, and I gave my reasoning behind it.
