Down in the Links section, regular readers (both of them) will notice a new addition: Stephen Wagoner's blog.
Stephen is a young church planter who has moved to Greensboro with his family to start Passion Church. What I love about Stephen is his heart for this city. There are Christians who have lived in this city their whole lives who do not love it as much as Stephen, a relative newcomer. Stephen's desire is to see this city transformed by the Gospel. God's providence brought us together several months ago, and for that I am thankful.
Stephen and I are forging a friendship around the Great Commission. Our work is different. Stephen is planting from scratch; I am trying to lead an established congregation. But our goal is the same, and more importantly, both of us see the gospel as the only hope for the Gate City.
May God bless Stephen and Passion church, and may He raise up others in new and existing churches who will share this vision and work together to see it happen.
