Two Seventies walk into a church … it may sound like the beginning of a joke but it’s actually what happened for this episode of What’s Brewing. Host Blake Smith sat down with friend and guest Craig Perryman to talk about Congregational Discernment. The process of discernment is typically filled with contemplative moments and extended times of prayer, but you won’t find quiet contemplation here.  Instead, you’ll find passion and energy as Craig shares insights he’s gained by leading multiple congregations through the beginning phases of what is meant to be a lifelong journey. Craig’s passion is contagious and his stories are inspiring. If nothing else, you’ll walk away knowing that you are adored by God.
