Living to Encourage the Church and Make Disciples to the Glory of God Alone
Time has seemingly scrapped by since quarantine swept over all of us back in March. But even with the days slowly marching by, we have finally landed in October.

October… Continue reading Appreciate Your Pastor By Interceding For Your Pastor
This week we talk with Josh King, pastor of 2nd Baptist Conway, Arkansas. We talk about many aspects of guiding a ministry well: leadership, casting vision and navigating culture.
