Appalachia Meets World Episode 123 - Church and Beyond the Walls in Appalachia with Jared Arnett (Religion in Appalachia Part 2)

Appalachia Meets World

In memory of the passing of Loyal Jones.

In this follow-up episode on religion in Appalachia Neil and Will sit down with Jared Arnett, a pastor, entrepreneur and leader of "Together for the Mountains" - an organization focused on church planting in Eastern Kentucky and with a mission to mobilize a network of Christian leaders to take their faith outside the walls of the church to leave eastern Kentucky better than they found it. Speaking on the diversity of religion in Appalachia, Jared gives his thoughts on the evolution of faith and church in Appalachia and what may be more important than teaching Sunday school. Take a listen as he describes his own personal journey and how faith led him through his work. Also, don't forget the #AppBiz of the week: CREA Company!
