Today on the Evergreen Church Life Podcast, we're joined by Matthew O'Mealey, Evergreen’s Executive Pastor of Community. We talk about how being made in God's image, we're created for community, and it's the church's function to steward those connections with different size groups, and equip its people to multiply into more groups as we strive to Know God, Share Life, and Change the World.
