Fasting Encouragement

Unrest in Kenya

Many of you know that our church has strong ties to Kenya. Our pastors, John and Leslie Siebeling, pastored there before planting The Life Church of Memphis. I went to Kenya with them to visit the church and their pastors, Don and Amy Matheny, back in 1998. With the recent unrest in Kenya, we have [...]
