Mike Pileggi’s Blog
Hey you! I’m glad you stopped here to read a bit and join the conversation. Below you’ll find different discussion topics. My goal is to be helpful to you, I realize not everyone has the time to read a book a week; well neither do I, but sometimes Seminary pushes me to do just that! I try to condense what I’ve learned, and sometimes synthesize my findings with real-life application. If you find anything helpful, let me know! It helps me think through what to talk about next.
Sincerely,
Mike Pileggi
