9 years

This weekend it’s been 9 years since I moved to Roanoke to start Journey Church from scratch. In the beginning I lived in the Rescue Mission with other homeless people. I remember attending chapel services with the transient men. Many of them reeked with the smell of alcohol, yet when they sang “When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder,” it was a wonderful experience of worship. I learned quickly that worship can happen in unexpected places…like a movie theater.
