New Projects – Part 2

As I indicated in the last post, I have recently finished a rough draft of a book I call Further Up, Further In, which is an invitation to move out of the shallows and into the deeper waters of our faith, to pursue a deeper walk with Christ. It’s an area of personal passion, and[…]

GHC Cincinnati ’17
