Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlinShow Notes
How quickly could you get a horse to downtown Boston?
Well, today's guest McKittrick Simmons posed that very question to Dave and it really framed their 20+ friendship in a new way. After meeting his new friend, Jon McLaughlin, McKittrick breaks down the "neutron bomb" of intentional friendship and why "no theologians allowed" Bible studies are the secret to growth.
