Justice for George Floyd

George Floyd was murdered at the hands of three police officers this week.

A lot has been said about the incident and, thankfully, the officer who was leaning on George’s neck was arrested and charged with third-degree murder.

Listen in as I process my thoughts on the situation. It’s a return to the top-of-mind format that originally started this podcast.

About your host

Profile picture for John Wilkerson

John Wilkerson

Since I was a kid I’ve loved technology. My first computer was a Commodore VIC-20. My first gaming console was an Atari 2600. Saturday morning cartoons were my crack.

Those formative years gave me a passion for things that light up and beep. These days I tend to binge on social media and Netflix.

I’ve been married to my fantastic wife for 27 years and have 7 awesome kids, a fancy daughter-in-law, and the cutest grandsons on the planet.

My wife and I homeschooled all of our kids. Well, my wife homeschooled them and I tried to help.

Mostly I just got in the way and distracted them from their learning. That’s what dads are supposed to do, right?

Every day I struggle to follow Jesus
Struggling for Purpose is my personal audio journal of faith and folly. Most of the time it seems more like folly than faith. Sometimes I interview people I find interesting.

Join me as I struggle for purpose in my daily life.

“Dear brothers and sisters…I urge you…to join in my struggle…”
—Romans 15:30 (NLT)
