This can bring a lot of fruit but it can also present a lot of unique challenges. How do you navigate a merger like this? What are the unique challenges of replanting an existing church ore revitalizing a dying church? Jared and Matt explore all of this and more in this week’s episode. Come get in the trenches with us!
