Christian Newsome and his wife, Danielle, have been married 13 years and have two children: Christian (age 11) and Kasey (age 9). After growing up in small town in Southern Ohio Christian received a scholarship to play football at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. It was there that he met Danielle. They were engaged after 4 months of dating and married 6 months later on July 10th, 1999.
After a decade in ministry serving as a Youth Pastor, a Family Pastor, and a Teaching Pastor, Christian felt a distinct call to start a new church that would minister to young families, young singles, and those who are young at heart with a dynamic church that had a simple process for spiritual impact and a simple schedule for busy people who desire to have a real connection to a church family. After 2 years of study, mentorship, and training with some of the greatest churches in America, Christian moved to Lee’s Summit, Missouri in December 2010 and launched Journey Church International in September 2011. In two years the church has grown from 5 families meeting in a living room to as many as 500 people each Sunday at weekend church services.
Each Sunday Christian teaches through a portion of scripture in a manner that will teach you something from the Bible while showing you how it relates to your life in an applicable way. You can listen to those sermons each week at www.takethejourney.cc. Begin podcasting messages this week!
Just listened to July 4, Hebrews 5
FINALLY Melchizedek and Jesus relationship was answered. Both were HIGH PRIEST AND KING. and How apparent but I did not see it – Jeru —— Salem. Does “order of” Melchizedek mean anything?
