Pastor Rob Ketterling starts a new series titled, "How Not to Read the Bible."
Episode 51: As a multi-site church, we get to minister to many different cultures of the cities around us! Our City Campus, which took ground in Minneapolis several years ago, is located in the heart of Minneapolis and sees a very different culture than some of our rural campuses. Pastor Anthony Cox is the campus pastor of our City Campus, and he sat down to break down his thoughts on pastoring an urban church, and how we can best serve the inner city communities. Whether you have a campus or church in the inner city, we encourage you to pray about how God wants to use you and your team there!
We continue in our Giving Series as Pastor Rob shares about giving over and above!
Pastor Kirk reminds us that blessings will come because we belong to the family of Christ. Today, you can be confident that God will supply everything according to His goodness.
Episode 57: Pastor Logan was in Portland a few weeks back with Pastor Rob, and he found a book that was published in the 1800's with stories from the famous Cambridge 7, Hudson Taylor and other amazing missionaries! Logan explains the background behind this historic book, beautiful passages and lessons from the author, and his encouragement to the network. Let's take a look back at what missions work was like 140 years ago!
Pastor Kirk challenges us to look to God for wisdom as we begin 2023.
