Truly a blessing to have found Paul! He is such a wise man of God; Biblically grounded but also so gifted in his knowledge of the mind. He’s such an authentic man of peace that genuinely has a heart for people, especially men. I’ve only had two sessions with Paul so far, but I truly trust him. He has an anointing for this for sure!
