Kris and I met in the Summer of 2020. She was looking to make some serious changes to her health and fitness journey. Little did I know that this would evolve into a beautiful friendship and that I would play a role in her finding faith.
In this episode, we talk all about Kris' journey; how she went from using drugs and alcohol as coping mechanisms, to now praying every single day and surrendering her life to be a follower of Jesus.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
