The recording space we had been graciously provided proved to have some deep technical issues. As a result, you may notice more background sound than usual.

    PPD #38 - Adam Hamilton

    Thank you for listening to episode 38 of Preach, Pray or Die! Adam Hamilton is the founding pastor of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood, Kansas, a suburb of Kansas City. We think it's fair to say he's well known as a preacher, teacher, and author. Across the episode, we touch on Resurrection's new sanctuary as it relates to the design of sacred space, high points and challenges in ministry, and the divisive subject of coffee in the sanctuary. If you enjoy our show be sure to rate us on iTunes or give us a like on Facebook! Let us know what you've learned from our wonderful guests!
