Invitation To Educational Ministry: An Interview with Dr. George Hillman, Jr. | Episode 12

What tips and tricks do they teach about adult education in seminary?  In this twelfth episode, I sat down with a well-known author, professor, and practitioner for a wide-ranging discussion about educational ministry.
