In The Pastor’s Study
an interview with Min. Robert Brantley of BridgePoint Virtual Clergy Church

SAY SO!: Before we get started, I just want to take a moment to thank you for your commitment and dedication to the Faith Forum and to Say So! Magazine as a whole.

Min. Brantley: Thank you for your faithful service to the body of Christ through Say So! Magazine.

To God be the glory! SAY SO! Now, let's talk about BridgePoint Ministries.
