West Franklin Talks

It's not our normal Tuesday West Franklin Talks episode cause we aren't digging into this past Sunday's sermon. Instead, Matt and Dave are back for part 2 of our conversation about the renovations happening at the Church at West Franklin starting mid to late October. Today, they'll talk about why the Fellowship Hall and Worship Center are getting the attention instead of building a Student Center, they'll talk about the plans for the Fellowship Hall, and they'll explain the rational behind the changes happening to the exterior of the building. Fair warning, they get a little sassy at times with some of their rational. Also, we want to let you know we will not have an episode of West Franklin Talks on Sept 3 or Sept 7 but will be back on September 10!

This past Sunday, The Church at West Franklin shared during the worship service that we starting renovations on the Worship Center and Fellowship in mid to late October. Lots of people came through to see the rendering and plans and ask questions about what will happen. On today's episode of West Franklin Talks, Matt and Dave start a two part conversation to answer some of the most common questions we received and to explain the why behind the plans. Today they will talk about the Worship Center, the move to chairs, share the most likely plan for the stained glass window, and look at the plans for the baptistry. We're excited about the renovations and hope this helps you understand more about what is coming soon!

West Franklin Talks tackles the small topic of God's love on today's episode.
