Welcome to Episode 28!!!! Today’s interview is an interview that was divinely postponed until the right moment, and the moment is now. I don’t write that lightly, it truly is the right moment. I was supposed to interview Mark Mabry a couple months ago, and for multiple reasons it didn’t work out. Fast forward to last Thursday, I watched “The Sound of Freedom” at the theater, and I felt like I should contact Mark again about recording an interview last minute about being a Guardian of Freedom so I messaged him that night, and here we are, not even a month later.
So, that is what today’s episode is about- what it means to be a Guardian of Freedom in the context of the work that Mark Mabry has done with Tim Ballard in Operation Underground Railroad. To me, Mark Mabry and Tim Ballard, and I know they’d be uncomfortable with this,but to me, these men are modern day Captain Moroni’s. Ya’ll know I don’t make that comparison lightly. Captain Moroni did so much good despite his hot-headedness. These men do as well, despite whatever weaknesses they have. They fight for freedom everyday and aren’t afraid to talk about it.
This interview is a once in a life-time interview that I will cherish and think back on my whole life. I learned so much and Mark was such an easy person to talk to. I hope you enjoy today’s episode! Tell me what you think by writing a review!
Virtue- what comes to mind when you hear that word??? One of my favorite definitions for virtue is “a beneficial quality or power of a thing”. We are all filled with our own virtues- personal strengths and power within us that are gifts given to us by God. The real magic happens when we recognize our virtues and become Guardians of these Virtues, using them for the good of others.
Join me, your host, Alisa Lindsay Johnson, as I talk to amazing Guardians of Virtue who all have one thing in common- a desire to use their gifts for good. I hope that as you listen to this podcast, you are emboldened with your own virtues. Let us all strive to be Guardians of Virtue.
