“We don’t just want diversity. We actually want reconciliation.” @dennaepierre on place, church planting, and living out the kingdom of God in Phoenix on #findingholypodcast:

“You can’t remain in tension without remaining in Christ — through prayer and identifying with the sufferings of Christ.” @dennaepierre of @surgenetwork

“Pick an average place and give your life to it. And just be faithful. God has done amazing things.” @DennaePierre

“The evangelical story of “go find your place where you can live your life to the fullest” is such an individual story of greatness. You don’t see that in scripture.” @dennaepierre of @surgenetwork
