#124: On the Lake - Thanking God for His Love & Fulfillment

What if you were all alone... just you in a boat on a lake in near complete silence with nothing but the wind, water, and crickets to which to listen? "On the Lake" is about getting alone and getting real with God and talking about whatever crosses your heart and mind.

This week, Greg & Brian spend time thanking God for His perfect Love and how He satisfies us wholly and completely.
