Five years ago this congregation in Sacramento had a building, a staff, a slew of programs and a heart for renewal. Over the last five years in simple acts of obedience they have deconstructed their congregational life. In November they stopped meeting on Sunday mornings. In December the staff voluntarily resigned their salaries, and in January they sold the building. In a story reminiscent of "That Lot in Fairlee", they are now learning to live as God's people in Sacramento and are discovering a renewal they had not imagined. In this special webcast, Wayne interviews one of the key people in this process, former pastor Dave Fredrickson, as he relates their journey and the lessons they've learned along the way. The picture at left is one I took of Dave on a ferry in Sydney Harbor while we traveled about Australia together in the fall of 2003. Here is Dave's contact information in case you want to contact him after hearing the webcast: David Fredrickson <familyrm.david@sbcglobal.net>
