The Paths Of Your Life
Destiny, for some, is a word that motivates us and encourages us. For others, it’s a word that intimidates us, or maybe even makes us feel like a failure. Does God have a definitive plan for our lives, or is it something less easily defined and mysterious?
Ryan Phipps is the Senior Minister at Church In Bethesda.
Raised in the church, becoming a pastor was the one thing Ryan vowed he would never do. After spending many years away from faith, he found that for all of its flaws, the church can still occupy a unique place of good in the world if it is willing to evolve with reason and empathy.
Ryan has a special place in his heart for those who have been damaged or disillusioned by the church, and longs to lead those within it toward a more just and generous expression of itself.
