This week we welcome fellow realtor and all around good dude - Danny Altizer, to the podcast! Our plan was to chat about generosity, WHICH WE DO… but only after accidentally jumping into the incredibly cool story of how Danny met the Lord. We were blown away at God’s story of redemption in Danny’s life, and the whole crew immediately agreed that Danny’s story telling is absolutely bar-none. If you regularly wrestle with what it looks like to live a life of generosity, or just really love great stories - this episode might be for you!
