The Lunch Table

Today we are talking through what it looks like for us to have success in ministry. How can we have success personally and then let that flow into this?

This week we are talking about how we define success for our seasons and portions of our lives. Especially we are talking about our personal life today. Family wise, with our wives, and kids. The good stuff.
