What keeps you from experiencing real peace in your life?

It's not the people in our lives or the circumstances around us. It’s that we spend much of our days rehashing the past and rehearsing the future. If you’re a leader, whether it be at home, church, in your community, neighborhood or office, we invite you to join us for our annual Leadership Forum. We will gather for authentic conversations as we discuss Jeanne Stevens' new book, What’s Here Now?, and discover how to start receiving the present. Watch the trailer for her book here. The Forum will be held in person this year at Parkwood Baptist Church in Annandale. Register Today!
