In today's episode, Chad and Michael sit down with Christ Church of Oronogo's Community Impact Minister, Maggie Schade. It seems like there's a pervasive notion in today's society that the church doesn't do much in their local communities, and Maggie joins us to give us her unique perspective on just how much the church can and should impact our communities.
