Going to Space || Guest Post
Church planting isn’t totally like going to space, but it does have some similarities. As a kid I dreamt about becoming an astronaut. I imagined myself going through the months of training and then the day of the launch. Even though I was full of excitement I also had a little bit of fear. How fast would the rocket be going?

Even so, I still considered myself short. Continue reading “How the Holy Spirit Changes Your Story (Guest Post)”

Guest Post! Jesus and the Rebels Part 2 – Jason Bennett
As we closed out Jesus and the Rebels Part 1, Jesus told us about the repentant prodigal who has come to his senses, returned home, and received an undeserved “hero’s welcome.” His father is overjoyed at his son’s arrival and throws a great feast to celebrate his return.

Guest Post! Jesus and the Rebels Part 1 – Jason Bennett
Luke 15:11-24 This is one of my all time favorites stories that Jesus tells.
