4.Tell us a little of your ministry context at your church because y’all are set up slightly different than most churches. Your big service for students is on a Sunday night. How did that come about and do you see that being more beneficial rather than a Wednesday? (23:24)

5.You often have the opportunity to speak at different retreats, DNows, and camps, I believe because of your ability to give a clear and impactful invitation.
