I love speaking on the Word of Wisdom. Check this out if you’d like to invite me to speak to a group.
Jane,
It’s the day after Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday and I just listened to your podcast of about two months ago where you discuss the ‘comma’ and Section 49. It has been so helpful to have the clarification of this regarding the Word of Wisdom. I gave a copy of your book to a good friend of mine this week. I will get a few more for Christmas. Thank you for your passion in this important area. I am thankful for the great nutrition guide the Word of Wisdom is and to those who speak clearly. Tonight I am roasting vegetables. Enjoy the season.
Craig
Thanks, Craig! I appreciate the kind words. It is such a joy to share this marvelous message, especially when I hear from people like you and can make new friends!
