Revolution Church

Jay and Caleb welcome our first Revolution member who is also a devout, currently-practicing member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints--Kerry Hawk Lessard! Kerry is great at nuanced blending of--and appreciation for--dynamics that may appear to be opposing or conflicting. Her story is quite unique, and her voice is very strong. This is one that you'll just have to hear for yourself to appreciate.@khawklessard@revolutionchurch94@jaybakker@revolutioncalebwww.revolutionchurch.com/donatewww.facebook.com/revolutionchurchmn#disagreewell#arguewell#buildingbridges#buildbridges#godislove#churchofjesuschristoflatterdaysaints#lds#mormon Hosted on Acast.
