Episode 14: Highlights from Season 1
THAT’S A WRAP
Tori and I have a quick chat as we wrap up 2021 and Season 1 of A Godzillion & One. We look back on some of our favorite episodes, talk about the power of social media and sharing, and even give away a few teasers on what to expect for Season 2. Our team would like to thank you, our listeners, who joined in for this ride. We hope these interviews helped to encourage, challenge, and inspire you to think bigger and to notice the shockingly and seemingly endless ways to connect this world and the God who made it all.
Season 2 coming early 2022.
Did you enjoy this season or learn something new? I hope so! My goal is to bring on guests that help encourage, challenge, and inform us about life. The best way to support the show is to rate the podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leave a brief review, and then share the episode with a friend.
