Many of you know the first church I planted was in Morgantown, KY. So many of the experiences that I write about in Plan B came from my time there at Morgantown Community Church.

Morgantown is a city of about 3,000 people in the city limits and an addition 9,000 or so in the entire county. I’ve always had a real heart for the Rural church in America. While often overlooked, it’s these churches that are positioned to make a real difference in our country today.

That’s one of the reasons I’m excited about a new book by Shannon O’Dell, entitled, “Transforming Church in Rural America.” If you pastor or lead in a rural community you need to pick this book up.

I’m excited to give a few copies of this book away over the next 24 hours or so. Just leave me the name of your church and the rural community you lead in.
