With a fresh year begun, I’m already looking forward to setting my reading plan out for the year. There are two particular books I’m anxious to read. Systematic Theology – Vol 1.

8230;the more happiness you have, the more I shall count myself glorified. We’re on the road this week. We worshiped at Redeemer, Lynchburg this morning. Hallie’s family attends there. It’s a great church. They’re about three months into their first foray as a mulit-site church. It was really exciting to worship with them this morning. My plan is to pattern our work in Culpeper after the Lynchburg model. Written by Joe Holland. January 11, 2009 at 2:39 pm. Tagged with church planting. I welcome your feed...
