The Garrison Podcast

The Garrison Podcast

The Garrison aims to equip believers to fulfil the Great Commission and to share the truths of Christianity with non-believers. I believe that the best way to achieve this goal is through my podcast, The Garrison Podcast. My podcast aims to explore common questions about Christianity more deeply and to inspire and educate as many people as possible with the good news of Christianity!
