A podcast to get you out of your mind.

Y’all been asking for it and here it is…Merch! Even better, when you buy one of these Bey inspired-shirts, you’re helping send the youth of St. Marks’ Lutheran Church in Los Angeles to Houston for the ELCA Youth Gathering and the Multi-Cultural Youth Leadership Event.

Click here to get over to CustomInk and buy one of these sweet shirts. Fun fact: they can be shipped to your home or to St. Mark’s in Los Angeles. Whatever’s easier!
