    Hi, Mr. Watkins:

    I will be attending the Blue Lake CWR and look forward to meeting you. The world needs more laughter, hope, relatable satire that doesn’t slice with hatred. I think it’s about time we got Christians to loosen up, enjoy life and find their groove to connect with a world that thinks all we do is sit around and judge others.

    I’d like to be part of that type of writing.

    Aloha Jim!
    Enjoyed hearing your BRMCCC Msg here… Guessing I was that Indian who wrote you as you mention an eg there.
    I Continue to hold you as one of the few writers who uphold integrity virtue and values in your teaching with a Christ centered focus n your teaching Its like my late Sunday School teacher at Methodist Church here once quoted: “Not only in words confessed or deed impressed. but in the most unconscious way is Christ expressed”. Thank you for upholding the standards and example of a genuine Christian Writer.
    Your friend and student.
