Shall We Start a Movement

by Aaron » click here for full post

I’ve been fascinated of late with the idea of what it would look like to start a disciple-making movement on the campus of Northern Kentucky University.  Imagine little communities of students and faculty following Jesus together.  Imagine what impact it would have on the campus, the surrounding neighborhoods, and the greater Cincinnati metro for Jesus-followers [...] Read more »

Worship Circle

Our Worship Circle happened tonight.  It was awesome.  Good music, good relationships (forming), and most importantly - I’ve got a good hunch that God was glorified and honored.  It was great to play and worship together with my new friends at NKU.  We’ll definitely do it again - maybe Christmas/Advent time - sooner if there [...] Read more »
