THE WAY FORWARD

This spring series is still about movement. Getting out and going further. The second part of this series will cover Acts 13-28. These stories have this entrepreneurial edge to them. They're full of apostles and leaders making things work on the fly, taking bigger risks, and learning from mistakes. 

We'll explore the resilience of this spirit-led mission, what it means to include more and adapt further, and how within an expanding movement endings are still inevitable. Let's be inspired to make a difference in the world around us, which is still stretching out into the wider world.
