Learning that your child identifies as LGBTQ may seem like an impossible situation to navigate. As parents, we all have unspoken ideas of what our child’s life could look like as they grow. So, what happens when things change unexpectedly? Pastor Jonas Hill discusses this scenario with guest Melinda Patrick; author, speaker, podcast host, and Director of Parent Support at His Wonderful Works. Melinda’s book, The Daring Rescue: Joining Jesus Christ In His Pursuit Of Your LGBTQ-Identified Child's Heart  takes center stage during this conversation as she recounts her journey with her LGBTQ-identifying daughter - and what God did (and continues to do) in Melinda’s heart, “What I’ve learned on this journey is that my child is not a problem to fix, but a person to love.” This honest dialogue is full of wisdom and encouragement for any parent who loves their prodigal child.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

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.
