Join my guest, Jeff Engel, and me to share stories related to the lyrics of the song, “Everything I Got” and leave freshly challenged to live out the lyrics in your own daily life. Visit the Episode Webpage to hear Everything I Got and discover more about joining Mark and others in PackLife Men. PACK LIFE You might be one connection away from thriving in the identity God has for you. Over the years as a pastor, Mark learned a lot about relationships and the benefit of strategic connections with others. Today he helps Christian men overcome symptoms of anxiety, stress and toxic culture to dive into the identity of the man God created them to be…together…in a “pack”. Click here to discover opportunities for life-on-life collaboration with other godly men. MORE MUSIC You can hear today’s featured song at GGSSPodcast.com or on your favorite streaming platform. You can also buy one of Mark’s CDs at https://markalewinemusic.com/cds WHY GOD STORIES? Why is it important to tell God stories? There are so many reasons but Jesus explained it best when He was asked about using so many parables. He said, “I tell stories, to create readiness, to nudge people toward receptive insight.” (That’s taken from Matthew 13 Message version). I’ve experienced God’s amazing work in my life through Jesus Christ and I’m passionate about others experiencing this joy and peace as well! ~Mark CUSTOM SONGS Are you looking for a unique gift for someone who’s special AND hard to buy for? Over the years I have enjoyed writing a variety of custom songs such as theme songs and songs that celebrate or commemorate. I have written for businesses, non-profits, individuals, events and occasions. I'm excited to take these experiences and make this special type of gift more readily available.
