Ministering In The Sticks


The other day I blogged about small churches and whining about being small; the same thing can be said of ministries that find themselves in small towns. We could complain that our town has less than 2,000 people, or we could get off our blessed assurance and actually attempt to reach people for Christ.

Interestingly enough I stumbled upon (via Ben Arment's post) a conference for churches out in "the sticks" and a minister who echoes much of what I was talking about in my previous post.
