Hello everyone and welcome to the Restore Podcast episode 14. I am your host, Javier Diaz, and I am so thankful that you've chosen to listen.
The Restore podcast exists to help restore the vision, restore the mission, restore the church. We do this through telling stories of different churches and how they are on the journey of transformation, and also by having conversations about different relevant topics facing the church today.
The Restore podcast slowly but surely continues to grow. We thank you for listening and hope that you will share it with others. Please do subscribe to the podcast so you won't miss when we release our monthly episodes.
On this episode, our guest is Pastor Jose St. Phard from Bolingbrook Seventh-day Adventist Church in Illinois, less than two hours from Chicago. We invited him to our Restore Conference in January, but in this episode we dive a bit deeper into the transformational journey of Bolingbrook Church.
You will want to listen all the way through as it is an amazing story of a church that began with only 40 or so in attendance and a person telling Pastor Jose that their church was the "frozen chosen." But today, Bolingbrook is a church of approximately 400 members with a mission that is the first thing you read on their web site: "Creating spaces for the people God misses the most."
