198: John Matarazzo and Learning Along the Way

John Matarazzo is a television producer and podcast host.

Great quotes from John:

There’s a lot more to people than the facade they wear.

The things that God isn’t saying are as important as what he is saying sometimes.

God can speak to you however he wants to get your attention.

Pay attention to the people God is bringing into your life.
