I met with Marnie today, who established an affirming faith community a few years ago. Our conversation was very valuable to me as Marnie understood the particular work, challenges, and needs of a church planter, especially in a diocese that lacked experience in church planting. I was encouraged by Marnie’s willingness to listen. Continue reading
