Hi, I'm Susie Larson. Thank you for listening to Susie Larson Live. Faith Radio podcasts are only possible because of your support. So thanks for giving, and thanks for sharing with a friend. Welcome to sing so the black row is you glide.

Because walking just won't do dance.

You don't have to know how to ever since, ever since we've got you left.

Welcome to Susie Larson Live.

Always so honored to get to spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day

that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, that deepen your understanding of God's word, and that

heightens the awareness of God's presence in your life. God is real. He's with us. He's Emmanuel,

and I'm so grateful for that. Well, we've got a special treat for you today. Recording artist and Pastor Torin Wells joins me today.
