Thanks for the list. Look forward to checking some of these folks out.
Another couple for the list are Mark Jobe at New Life Community Church and Wilfredo DeJesus at New Life Covenant in Chicago. Both are leading influential urban churches and few know of them.
JR, Cynthia & Jenni I can personally vouch for and I totally agree with you, Brad. They’re doing some amazing things.
So glad to see them on your list.
Thanks for bringing attention to people behind the scenes. In a church culture that is all too often celebrity driven, it’s nice to see some exposure to the often invisible people who really make things work. Great job Brad.
