Rufus’ mom who was like a mom to Paul – coolest shout out to a woman of faith and girl trip with Phoebe, the deliverer of the letter to the Romans from Romans 16!
Then with Priscilla, she was in the trenches of ministry with her husband! They displayed gentleness, faithfulness and grace to the churches. I would bet she had some phenomenal stories, and I love stories!
Favorite Quote of all time?
“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of – throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.” — C.S Lewis
What is your hope for Reliance Church?
