David Cobia leads a church that is a mission to the creatives in Los Angeles.

Tobi Ishitobi's church saw a lot of disruption, with people leaving to other congregations, after COVID. For some, this might have been a cause for alarm, but for Tobi, it helped build unity and momentum. While disrupted, they discovered more blessings than drawbacks.

Tobi Ishitobi leads a church with both Japanese and English speaking congregations, and is seeing growth and interest among young people joining and becoming activated in their faith. Despite a strong community of believers supporting him early on, bridging cultures between Japanese & American while conducting a merger between an existing church and a church plant presented a unique and difficult challenge. On the other side of it, Tobi has a treasure trove of wisdom for those that are involved in mergers or intercultural ministry.
