Small Churches Big Impact Podcast

Somehow, regardless of what the church says otherwise it seems like the message we keep getting as congregational leaders is size matters, so we've come together to seek a different message and to identify and amplify the beauty and grace of small. Small churches. No matter the impact you think you're making, join us to hear more about small churches making big impacts with God walking right alongside. You're with the Small Churches Big Impact Collective.
