The world has rarely seen this level of political and interpersonal tension. Your average church member may hear from you for half an hour a week but is on social media over two hours a day.
How do you preach to this situation in a meaningful way and make the most of the time you have in front of your congregation?
We believe that the gospel message can cut through all the noise and is exactly the right message "for such a time as this." You have no small task in front of you. In the midst of all this craziness, plan to spend some time amplifying your preaching ministry to ensure you focus on what matters.
