The Hey Joe Show

Joe and Erin Wellsthelightnetwork.tv
Navigating through a jungle can be very scary. To try and accomplish this when unprepared or ill-equipped is beyond scary, it’s dangerous. The Hey Joe Show, a weekly podcast produced by Joe and Erin Wells is designed to confront, head-on, the issues facing teens today with the power of a biblical worldview using God’s Word as our standard. Parents will be encouraged, educated, and equipped to help their teen traverse the deadly jungle called “culture.” Teens will be empowered to boldly stand, even in the midst of the masses bowing down to whatever god is luring peers away. There is no dodging of the issues. This is straight talk with teens and families in today’s culture.
