We want lighter content and humor in the mix with seriousness.
We want to testify of transformation that we have experienced "1st person" along our journey.

great insight tbpew. My dad always chaffed when some preacher came along with that "i was really really really bad before God saved me" testamonies/sermons.
He always thought it opened doors for saved people to go "one up" the guy.
Dad was a pretty tuff dude before God saved him but when he spoke, or taught or witnessed, it was always what God saved him TOO instead of what God saved him from.
