“In our preparation, we don’t just need to write a sermon; we need to behold God’s beauty. Ministry is often messy. The world is often ugly. The only way we’ll endure with joy is if we come to God’s Word looking for treasure.”
The Communion of Saints and Small-Town Churches
“The communion of saints expresses the spiritual reality that through faith, by the Spirit, those united to Christ are inherently united to all who are also in Christ. Through that communion we are not just teammates, allies, or friends, but participants in the life of one another through our shared participation in Christ.”
An Unlikely Pilgrimage
“Our church got its start over 11 years ago now and we represent the first church plant of Christ Redeemer Church of Hanover, NH. Also, for the last three plus years now I’ve also had the privilege of serving as a Small Town Summits Partner representing the state of New Hampshire. Now, if you had told any of this to my twenty-year-old self, I likely would have laughed out loud or looked at you sideways. “
