“In dealing with feelings about our church’s transition, I found myself praying more than I had for a long time. God led me to comfort others and renewed my spirit in the process. Then it suddenly dawned on me, instead of God calling on me to help Epiphany, God was using Epiphany to help me.”
– Epiphany member Ed Wasser
