001: When God Calls an Average Couple to Plant a Church
Manage episode 290874357 series 2917069
This is the story of how God used two average (who sometimes feel below average) people to plant a church in a challenging place. Loren and Carrie didn't set out to be church planters, but God changed their hearts, and they had to trust Him completely to work it all out.
For Loren and Carrie, church planting was always a family affair. In this episode, they talk about the call to plant a church and how God did not just call a planter, but he called both of them to embark on this mission. While it was not an audible voice or big supernatural event that helped them recognize God's will for them, God showed them individually that this was his plan. He has clearly called every believer to advance the kingdom, and this was how they felt that they could use their gifts in an area that desperately needed it.
