Since 2010, an important part of my monthly rhythm has been the Third Thursday pastors gathering in Nashville. Each month, Jeremy Rose, the senior pastor of Axis Church, hosts pastors, church planters, and ministry leaders who need camaraderie and helpful insight.

As the group has developed, Jeremy has allowed me to serve as part of the leadership of this group. A few times each year I teach, and on the other months, I love to receive insight from another pastor. I am so grateful for this opportunity and benefit from the blessing of long-term relationships.
