Church News
Church News has evolved with the increase of technology and digital space. The Internet has made it easy to spread important news fast. I can’t promise all of my updates will be breaking news or news about church people who do crazy things within the church, but my updates will be relevant news to the church, and its members, and those that have and are dedicating their lives to build, strengthen, and organize churches all across the world. Church Life is probably more culturally understood than universally embraced as a way of life, but for some of us who grew up in the last generation of real church kids who weren’t “preachers kids” will truly understand that life without several hundred church services a week was a rarity. So we learned to live life at church, with other church kids also known as your church family. So welcome to my writings about Church Life, feel free to leave an intelligent comment.
