The next time you’re on an airplane, remember to be polite with your flight attendant. You just never know when you’ll see them again, who they are, what they will become and how they will be able to help you. Academy Award winning Actress Meryl Streep said, “Some people are filled by compassion and a desire to do good, and some simply don’t think anything’s going to make a difference.” Our guest today is a man of compassion, one you would want by your bedside of you were suffering. He has also been graced with brilliance which, all the more makes you want to lean in and hear him. As a sure foundation beneath it all is a Christ-like love and humility. We are in for a rare opportunity today.
