Happy fall! This is my favorite time of year. The weather is cooling off. The kids are back in school. Regular rhythms are being re-established. And God is moving!
With Presence Pioneers Media, we published two books this month - one brand new book about wild faith and radical missions and one new edition of a very important old book on prayer and revival.
With The Greenhouse, our local community here in eastern North Carolina, we hosted our third annual Back to Eden Festival (check out the photos and report below) while we continue to sustain & build the prayer room.
Those of you who give to Presence Pioneers and pray for us are the only reason we can keep doing this important kingdom work to build day-and-night worship and prayer locally and globally. Thank you!

Back to Eden Festival & Come to the Table🍞🍷
This past weekend, The Greenhouse hosted our third annual Back to Eden festival right here in Pitt County, NC. It is a Christian homesteading and worship festival with homesteading classes, local vendors, food, fun for kids and HOURS of worship.
We hosted 14 hours of worship (seven on Friday and seven on Saturday) with worship leaders from around the area taking slots to minister to the Lord.
On Saturday evening, we hosted a communion service in partnership with Communion America’s Come to the Table initiative. We were one of 130+ locations around the world that were gathering for simultaneous worship, Gospel proclamation and communion. After the service, we enjoyed a community dinner with fellowship and smores around a camp fire.
It was a beautiful (albeit windy!) weekend where relationships were strengthened, new connections were made, and many people experienced the presence of God through His creation, fellowship, musical worship, and the Lord’s supper.
