The Church Planting Tribe

Really enjoyed hanging out with some church planters in Ohio. When I am with church planters I feel like I am with my tribe.

I honestly think the most innovative churches in America are the churches you've never heard of because they are being planted right now. You have to innovate to survive! Church planters are the ones in the trenches. And by default, they are part of the research and development part of the kingdom of God.

About to hop a flight and head home. By the way, I love airports with free wi-fi!

I get really annoyed at the airports who charge $7 or something for the internet.

Hey, Mark. Thanks so much for sharing with Ohio's church planters yesteday. We all went away really encouraged by your visit. I loved hearing about how missions has been part of NCC's foundational fibers. You look great in the Ohio State jersey! We're praying your launch at Georgetown tomorrow goes well.

Blessings,
Donna

Donna,

It was a privilege and the jersey was an off the chart gift :) So cool.

Go Bucks! Pastor Mark has seen the light and is now sporting an Ohio State Buckeye Jersey ... the best marching band days of my life (TBDBITL)... and 5 free bowl trips with The Buckeyes!
