We All Need Community
How do you make a big church feel small? That is a natural question that many will ask when they step foot into a larger church. How do you get connected in a larger church and be known by others? Every local church should take time to answer that question because every believer needs community. Continue reading “We All Need Community”

The summer season providesContinue reading “Setting a Target”
