0:00.0 | Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast |
0:05.7 | with your host, Emma, daughter. Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with one of our elders, Kyle Thompson. |
0:14.9 | Hey, Emma. Great to be with you. Oh, it is good to have you back, Kyle. Last time you were here, |
0:20.8 | we didn't have you share your story, how you came to know the Lord. |
0:24.2 | I would love for you to take just a few minutes to tell us a little bit about your journey. |
0:28.7 | Yeah, well, I grew up in a great home, but it was not centered on Christ. |
0:33.0 | I'd never heard the gospel until I went to college, and I'll never forget a guy was sharing with me. |
0:39.9 | And I just, my immediate thought was if that is all true, then I would have heard it before now. |

1:27.2 | was on college campuses. |
1:29.0 | And so I started an intellectual journey that ended up in a God piercing my heart, me trusting |
1:35.3 | Christ, my junior year of college. She was dating someone at the time. And so I was focused on |
1:43.7 | next steps and senior year last semester. |
1:47.5 | We were in a Bible study together and renewed our friendship. And God used that to lead me a year |
1:55.0 | later to ask her to marry me. And she is now my wife, Lucina. Shout out, Lucina. |
2:01.9 | That's amazing. |
