This week we kicked off a brand-new teaching series called, Nuts and Bolts. For the next few weeks, we are going to be exploring some of the ideas we introduced in our last series in a bit more detail.

Join me as we talk about what it is and what one powerful implication of that is for our lives. Thanks for reading and sharing.
