Relational. I have a heavy conviction that the relationships among the body of Christ can and should be deeper and more real than they are naturally. I think that it’s natural to love people in your church but never have a conversation with them that lasts longer than 30 seconds. I want to cultivate a church where the people are intentional about really getting to know and love one another and where we really live as a community that follows Jesus together.

There is an the old African proverb that says, “If you want to go fast go alone, if you want to go far go together.” I want to cultivate a church that goes far.
