What decision received unanimous approval at Synod 2026? What plan signaled a renewed sense of mission and hope for the CRC’s future? Guests Scott VanderPloeg and Tim Sheridan join our hosts in exploring the CRC’s new 10-year plan of prayer, disciple-making, leadership investment, church planting, and renewal. This grassroots vision is about the local church being “all in.”
