To See The Game – The Promise Broadcast
My phone rang and I picked up, despite the number not being in my phone. “Hello?” I said “Jason Hewlett, this is the new high school basketball Coach at your son’s school, do you have a minute?” “Yes sir, is everything ok?” I asked. “All is well. I heard you’re the only person who […]

Talking with a Human
