God Wasn't Pleased With What Jesus Did. He Was Pleased With Who He Was. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scott Volk serves on the leadership team of the Spirit and Truth Church Network. In this conversation recorded at the Arise Shine Conference, he shares what's been burning in his heart: the question of identity. Jesus was 30 years old and had done nothing significant in ministry when God declared him beloved. His sonship wasn't earned — it was given.

Pastor Rich leads Hope Church in South Carolina — one church, one service for 30 years before going multisite nine years ago.

In this conversation recorded at the Arise Shine Conference, Mat tells the full story — the moment at the altar, the conversation with his wife Adrianne, the team meeting, the relaunch as The Altar, and what happened just months later when another church called to donate their building. He said yes before he knew what was com
They Joined the Network for Revival. What They Got Was Even Better. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pastor Kent leads Kingdom Collective in Fort Wayne, Indiana — a church five and a half years old that found the Spirit and Truth Church Network after a Google search for a prayer conference for revival. In this conversation recorded at the Arise Shine Conference, he shares what it meant to be part of a network when their founding pastor had to transition out — and what it looked like when their network leader, who couldn't make it to a critical church meeting, landed in Grand Rapids anyway and d
