Season 3: Episode 15: An update from Matthew Erikson and Hope Church Keeping It Simple

Welcome back to another episode of Keeping It Simple! We have had a recent hiatus but are bringing back more episodes for your enjoyment and equipping people in the micro church space. In this episode, Scott and Luis sat down with a good friend, Matthew Erikson, and heard the latest from Hope Church (Oak Harbor) and were able to reflect on the seasons of a micro church community. This is a great conversation for anyone exploring micro church stuff and is fulfilling for anyone that wants to learn more!
