"There's no such thing as failure when planting a church." This week's episode is all about church planting with T.J. Hankey. We talk about planting a second church, loneliness, combating burnout, the importance of community, and stepping into the church plant God puts in front of you, not the one you have in your head. T.J. offers tons of wisdom in this episode, so listen in! 

In the summer of 2020, T.J. and Leah felt a clear call from God to plant a church in the Treasure Valley of Idaho. Refresh Church launched in September of 2021 and has built an incredible team to see people refreshed by the presence of God and discover their purpose in Him. 

Pastor T.J. is a gifted teacher and communicator. He has a passion for making God’s word relatable and practical, and he has a heart for reaching people right where they are and introducing them to the refreshing message of Jesus. In their free time, T.J. and Leah like spending time outdoors with their four children Mckenna, Addison, Cecelia, and Layton.

Soul Care Summit

This year's Soul Care Prayer Summit is happening April 22-24 up at Quaker Hill in McCall. The Summit is for men and women who serve as leaders and missionaries in the Treasure Valley. This is a space created for you as a visionary leader to hear from God and care for your soul–and it's not just for pastors. It's for anyone who has a vision for kingdom transformation in their sphere of influence. We want to create a space for you and your spouse to pray over that, and to pray for our valley together as a unified church trying to reach our communities with the gospel. We're also helping with childcare this year, so let us know on the registration form if that's a need for your family. Go to www.thecitynetwork.org/soulcare to register!
