We had great meetings with denominational types and great meetings with the school guys, and a great time hanging out with potential team members. God is opening some doors for Todd and his […]

Gary Lamb said on his blog that of the 14 pastors at the church planting class this weekend that he could only get excited about 3 of them. That’s okay some of them weren’t excited about Gary. But he did a great job once you get around some of the negative. I love what […]
