Thank you so much for teaching this class, I'm definitely interested in learning more and am looking forward to seeing what classes you have to offer this Fall and Winter, I'm definitely signing up! - Ashley
Brandi, I truly enjoyed you class yesterday! I found myself immersed in Judges the rest of the day!
- Paula
I loved your Sunday School class, and plan to be there this Sunday. You make everything so fun, and glad to see that there was standing-room only.

She [Brandi] gives a fresh take on biblical passages, and makes them interesting again." - JenH
"Wow! Another great Bible story and another great online lecture from Brandi to help us understand it."

"I have to tell you that my kids had a blast...I think they got a lot out of it – Wyatt talked about it quite a bit in the car...they were each telling me their favorite parts about the evening!"
- Anne
"Harrison was talking so fast and so long when he came in last night, that it was hard to keep up with him!! He clearly had a great time and did try to tell me the story of Samson. He told me about people cutting his hair off because his strength was in his hair, but it was really God who made him strong. He also loved the part about the slingshot, of course! There was A TON more explanation than this and it was wonderful to hear him try to spout it all back out. What a great ministry and gift to our children.
Thank You!"
- Dorsey
"...You have no idea how much last night meant to me...THANK YOU!!!!! I can hardly wait til next time!!!
I must tell you, that I rode home in silence... no radio..... and was simply quiet and reflecting on the evening. After a while, I found myself in prayer, thanking God for His special gift to you, and for all you mean to so many. Also, there were prayers of thanksgiving for the marvelous new friends that I met . Like you, I just had a good, warm, fuzzy feeling about the whole evening. Surely, the Holy Spirit was among us!"
- Lyn
I think I might become a groupie to your Sunday classes. Looking forward to the January session.
- Paula
Liz has a FANTASTIC time -- she really enjoyed it and said she wished she had more time to spend with everyone. She was very excited to share the movie quotes/scenarios tied to the bible verses!
- Cathie
Thanks for today- it was great, as always! I bet anyone who FINALLY (me) makes time and takes a course with you keeps coming back!
- Karen
I read your Sunday Apple! I look forward to them as my favorite sermon of the week. Stories are the best way we have of communicating, I think, because, first of all, we love them, and maybe more importantly, they give us so many different ways of expressing our experiences, fears, hopes, etc. They illustrate better than anything else, even pictures. I never agreed with the adage that "A picture is better than a thousand words" because a picture can get over only one idea at a time, whereas a thousand words, if they compose a story, can say a whole lot more.
- Margaret
I am enjoying this class so much and love all of the connections with history and religions...fascinating!! See you next week.
- Clare
Thank you for this past Tuesday evening [Movies with Soul] and for the Indy series. These are a nice break from my routine, which I need at times.
- Robert
Brandi - what a great group you offered us in Eat, Pray Love. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and consider myself lucky to have met a few really strong women!
It was my 1st Wisdom "class" and NOT my last. I'll be signing up for something you offer in the Fall!
Thanks again, and I can't wait to run into you again very soon,
Kristin
Wow, this resonates with me... Thanks for offering a little altar every week. You are so good at showing us how to recognize God's presence in our ordinary lives and how to live out our God-given gifts. Thank you!!
Lucy
I loved the course. I've been spewing tidbits to Chason over dinner and tonight (no surprise, of course). The way you weaved together history, religion and archeology was fascinating. Your classes open my eyes to many different things, and make me want to learn more! What can I say, I'm hooked. Thanks for everything- see you soon I hope.
- Jane
Brandi, [we] thought the lesson on forgiveness was terrific. Some of them who had not been in your classes before were very impressed! You really have a gift for teaching and for bringing a new slant to topics. We are so lucky to have you!
I love your email. I was lamenting last week that my "big city" kids wouldn't ever really feel the sense of home that I (and John) grew up with in Savannah - everyone knowing your name, who you are and who you belong to. VBS always fills you up with that nurturing cozy feeling that brings us all a little closer to that small-town feeling of belonging. And I'm always grateful for you turning such a big church into what feels like a smaller, very inclusive, caring community!
- Lucy
I just want to tell you how much your weekly newsletter means to me. Each week I try to think of one friend/family member who I think might benefit from your letter. The result is that I have shipped it to many people in many different states.

Your Wisdom essay today really touched me in a deep place. Thank you so much for your priceless ability to get at what is truly important and say it in a way that can be understood and remembered.
I am so blessed to call you friend and teacher. Love!
