So I’m pretty excited about the new ministry starting this Sunday for ages 26 – 34 called “doxa.” Doxa is a Greek word for “praise.” I’m a big believer in singles who are career age!! They have so much potential, energy, passion, gifting, talent, expertise and calling that often goes wasted, but could be offered […]
We just added 4 new Groups to the Antioch Groups web page in the last 24 hours! Click here if you’d like to see what is on tap for Winter / Spring 2007!! (P.S. Really excited about the Women’s Mentor Training group on Sunday mornings :)
