There are many ways to reach this world for Jesus Christ, at Authentic Life Church we believe that one of the most powerful ways to turn people to God is through stories. We are all a collection of stories, every single one of us, and God works within them. Whether they are stories of brokenness or redemption or both, God is glorified in rewriting them.
Here are just a few stories from people who call ALC home. We would love to hear yours.
