I4J Live December 10 > How to Love Your Community This Christmas with Ryan Kearns, Sam Rainer, and Dave Runyon
Proudly presenting I4J Live
Christmas is a big deal. For many people, it’s one of the only times they’ll step inside a church all year. For for others, it may be the only time they’ll step outside their church in search of ways to serve their neighborhoods and communities. During this season of Advent, what does it mean to love your community well this Christmas – both inside the church doors and out?
Join us here this Thursday at 10 am PT / 1 pm ET as host Adam Legg talks with Ryan Kearns, Sam Rainer, and Dave Runyon on how to do just that. They’ll answer audience questions and share from their personal expertise.
