We're doing this a little differently this week. Silas, Pastor Ray and our Life Groups Pastor, Pastor Jonathan, sit down and discuss some of the Life Group questions related to 1 Corinthians 9:24-27. Pastor Ray and Pastor Brett are heading to the other campus this weekend, which is why we had two different passages being preached last weekend. Since Pastor Brett is away, we thought this would be a fun conversation to have, as an example of what Life Group discussions could look like, and it did not disappoint!
