Speaker: TJ Freeman

Summary: In this first session from the Brainerd Institute conference, TJ Freeman, discusses his journey from planting a church in warm, busy Southwest Florida to returning to rural Pennsylvania and feeling isolated. He shares how his initial depression and sense of being 'benched' transformed through a deeper understanding of God's plan for creation. The speaker emphasizes the significance of rural churches in God's plan, arguing that the collapse of rural America is a theological failure. He encourages pastors to recognize their vital role in lighting up these often overlooked areas and making God's glory known, thus contributing to a universal demonstration of God's glory.
