Back in June there was story on the local news about Rodney Lee. He had a heart attack while out on a local Knoxville nature trail. He encountered a Good Samaritan, Zach during his ordeal and Zach was able to assist Rodney until EMTs arrived. After his hospital stay, Rodney was on a mission to thank Zach. This is Rodney's story. 

Thank you Rodney for your candid conversation. I have been fascinated by yourstory since first reading about it.

Heart Attack and Hope

Happy New Year! I didn't want to spend my first Monday of the year trying to protect my identity from being stolen but that is exactly what I did. It took about two hours of time and energy and the stress of the situation definitely shortened my life expectancy but I think I succeeded in protecting myself. I'll let you know for sure in 30 days.

Identity Theft

For the last 57 years people from all walks of life in Knoxville, TN come together to bring the story of the birth of Jesus Christ to life. The cast is made up of 120 volunteers, the choir is 150 voices strong and the animals add the "cherry on top" to the dramatic recreation of the Christmas story. 

How did the Nativity Pageant become a thing in Knoxville? What does it take to make this event not only happen but make sure it is free to all who want to see it? I'm so glad you asked. This pod is all about the labor of love for this special Knoxville holiday tradition.

The Knoxville Nativity Pageant

One thing I did not mention in the pod (because I actually did it Thursday and it was glorious, is go a drive through the mountains before all the leaves fall off the trees.) 

This is a brief summery of all the things I will be and want to be doing this weekend.
