Today's episode launches a new series on Pillar & Ground with the first "Stories" episode. These episodes are intended to tell the stories of longtime LMPC members as they reflect on their personal histories with LMPC and tell of God's faithfulness in their lives through the people and work of the church.

In this episode Brian is joined by Anne and Joe Donnovin. The Donnovins reflect on being raised at LMPC (in Anne's case) and raising their own family here, as well as the multitude of ways they've served - in both official and unofficial capacities - over the years.

Host: Brian Salter
Special Guests: Anne & Joe Donnovin
