Paul Hemminger joins Jeremy on the show today to discuss local city networks to connect believers and make the body of Christ denser and more impactful.

The Kingdom of God has a spatial, geographic reality to it, and it's so important that we interact with our city and the body of believers in our city to bring the Kingdom to our hometowns.

Paul explains the vision and mission of the networks they're building, in hopes that others join in and help to create a strong, sturdy network of Christians who all help and work with one another.
