CFTROU 0152B10: Collaboration
In this episode, we’re bringing you a broadcast of a panel of guests that we featured at the Church For the Rest of Us Conference we held earlier this month. The theme of this year’s conference is COLLABORATION so the discussion you hear will be conversation around that topic. Pastor Jimmy Scroggins and Leslee Bennett are joined by three special guests: Pastor Jed Coppenger, Pastor Jay Strother, and Pastor Jeff Robinson.
