‘Beyond Ordinary;’ An Amazing Story of Brokenness and Reconciliation
A year or so ago I connected with Justin Davis, an Associate Pastor under Pete Wilson at Cross Point Church in Nashville. We had a few things in common.
Justin was a senior minister at a mid-western church when he had an affair with a fellow staff member who was also a friend of his wife, Trisha. It was a recipe for disaster.

10 Reasons I’m More Excited About Jesus Than Politics
Every once in a while a writer reads something and wishes they had written it themselves. For me, this is one of those times.
