“It’s Time to Invite People to More Than a Church Service”
I know, I know… the title might sound like clickbait. But stay with me. There’s a truth here that I believe is worth exploring—even though I’m not making a sweeping statement telling you to stop inviting people to church. So, take a deep breath.
