In our usual intro, we reflect on Sunday and hear about Texoma Workcamp. Then Mitch, Rusty, and Terrance talk about approaching evangelism in a new way (or is it old?), and highlight distinctions between growing and maintaining the church. For us, one of the most important things we can do is share our stories and listen to others.
