The Session with Tom Russell

Tom Russell & Scott Saunders

The Session is where faith and life connect. Tom Russell and Scott Saunders explore issues facing the family and the church today. Tom’s heart is to encourage marriages and Pastors. We try to approach every issue through the lens of Scripture, with a sensitivity to the families listening, and use humor when we can. No matter what the issue, we celebrate life in Jesus, and celebrate success! Which for us, means getting through more than 2 points a week!
