Episode 100 of The Write it Down Podcast is here! We are overwhelmed with gratitude that you have followed us along for these past 3 years. There isn't a better way to ring in episode 100 than welcoming Pro Football Hall of Famer, Warren Moon, to the mic. Warren overcame the social stigma that African Americans should not be quarterbacks. He decided early on not to succumb to that line of thinking and to pursue his dreams of being an NFL quarterback. He spent his early career in the CFL, but it wasn't too long after that the opportunity to play in the NFL would knock on his door. Warren encourages us to keep chasing our dreams and not to let culture define our potential. You know what to do, sit back, relax, and get your pens ready!

Pastor Anthony Rick is the epitome of selflessness, joy, and kindness. He joins the Write it Down Podcast to share the "why" behind writing his new hit book "The Hand Book". When you think about the hand of God, what comes to mind? Anger? Justice? Frustration? Or is it Kindness? Love? Assurance? "The Hand Book" takes us on a beautiful journey describing God's hand and all of His wonderful attributes. Let's just say, I don't like reading, and I could not put down Anthony's wonderful book! I am honored Anthony Rick came on WIDPOD! This episode will knock your socks off with encouragement and joy. On top of that, Anthony's WID was challenging and thought provoking.

He longed to play for Penn State as a quarterback, the coach offered a different position. Jim didn't want to play for the Bills, they hunted him down. He hoped for a son, but his fulfilled desire was short lived on this side of Heaven. So how does one cope with such loss and hardship?
