“Christian and his wife are really the Salt of the Earth: Very loving people who are wide open to new perspectives and great conversation. I appreciate having the joy of spending time with them this past week and getting some loving support from them (though we never finished our Bruce Springsteen discussion! :)). I look forward to paying them another visit and hosting the next round! :)”
