Freedom to Surrender. An interview with Pastor Jerry Bader

In this episode I talked to Pastor Jerry Bader of Samaritan's Heart Mission Church about his incredible story.  Jerry was a majorly influential conservative talk show host for many years in the state of Wisconsin.  After becoming a believer in 2016 and having his career collapse around him in 2018 and 2019.  Jerry heard God calling him to ministry.  He is now making an incredible impact in his community by serving the needs of the homeless, addicts, and any other lost souls within his reach.  With incredible zeal, and with God's strength, he and his church are touching lives for Christ!

In this episode I talk to Grace Dinkler.  Grace is the owner and operator of Farmstead Therapies in Kaukauna, Wisconsin.  We talk about her dream of creating Farmstead Therapies, and the accident that almost derailed her dreams.  It's a story of incredible strength and determination as she focused on her dreams of bringing the joys and therapeutic properties of caring for and bonding with animals to people with special needs, or others that could benefit it.
