Wise Weekly

This week we had the privilege of sitting down with Rusty and Mickey Tanner. They're two gifted people who are devoted to serving their community in many admirable ways.

Our main topic of discussion is one we won't spell out on this post (so we can hopefully avoid the Facebook algorithm restrictions), but you'll find out in the first minute or so.

Thanks for watching and please like, comment, and/or share. 👍

Episode 3: Lia Carta

Topic: Discuss situation with children's book choices at the Decatur Public Library

We sat down with the leadership of Wise Choices PRC to discuss their mission, the resources they provide, how the community can help, and many other topics related to the pro-life and pro-choice conversation.
