LIFE MATTERS

A conversation with Dr Steve Dunn about thoughtful, practical, and intentional living as a follower of Jesus Christ--focusing on questions that younger generations have about God, the Bible, the church and spirituality. And sometimes, since life gets a little too serious, we just talk about more trivial matters that still warm the soul and bring everyday joy.

I serve as the Executive Pastor for the Hanover PA First Church of God.I am also available as a church leadership, evangelism and outreach consultant.and serve as a member of the ERC's Church Health Commission.
