Sign in to like or save.
During the final panel at Christianity Tomorrow, Bryan Laughlin, Joe Holland, and Dr. Doug Logan Jr. sat down with Mez McConnell to talk service to the poor. We discussed the Reformed church’s (often) tenuous relationship with the poor, as well as with the good, the bad, and the ugly of local church mercy ministries.
