Episode 11 told of how God used deep questions, a booth at the fair, and Four Spiritual Laws to save Jeff Iorg's s life and soul. In this bonus episode Jeff talks about how planting a church in Oregon changed the trajectory of his life. He also talks about the reasons he's occasionally felt far from God. Most of this episode though is Jeff telling the story of the closest he's ever felt to God—a story centered on his second cancer surgery.

At the end of this episode you'll hear the story of Max Sternberg. Max comes from a Reformed Jewish background, but today is a "blood bought son of God and believer in Jesus!" The story of how that happened is awesome and you don't want to miss it.

Jeff Iorg is the president of Gateway Seminary in Los Angeles.  For much of his tenure in this position he was the chaplain for the San Francisco Giants. Before this he was the executive director of the Northwest Baptist Convention. He is also the founding of Pathway Church in Gresham, Oregon. He is also the author of 10 books on church and Christian leadership.

Jeff's life has been devoted to Christian ministry and leadership, but if you were to look at his early childhood you would not have expected it. His first memory is of fleeing Georgia with his mom to get away from his dad. For protection he lived under a false name, something that created an identity crisis for him.  His family never attended church. Then one summer day, everything changed. This is the story of how God used Jeff's deep questions, a booth at the fair, and Four Spiritual Laws to save Jeff's life and soul.

Episode 10 told the story of how God used a casual lunch and two simple questions from a friend to change Frank Rich's life. In this bonus episode Frank talks about the ways that his changed life has lead to positive improvements in his relationships and how his faith helped him break a 20 year pornography addiction. He also gives language to a common theme in this podcast—"rock tops moments."

At the end of this episode you'll hear the testimony of Mark Sowersby. Mark found about this podcast and sent us a video to play. His story is one of being abandoned and abused as a child, but it is also a story of incredible healing and forgiveness through Jesus.  "That decision of receiving that mercy of God...has been the benchmark of my life forever."
