We are thankful to celebrate 4 years of Living Stones Unearthed with our new post and interview, “The Sharpening,” featuring a full and lively conversation with Nate Elarton, who along with his wife Wendy, pastors and leads Compelled Church in Temperance, MI.
Shot on location at Nate’s wood carving shop, watch and listen as Nate talks about how being a two-time state wrestling champion trained him for ministry, life changing quite time with God, sacred vs secular spaces, and the current state of the church, all with the perspective and experience of 39 plus years of pastoral service.
We continue to give God all the glory for His faithfulness, direction, and the chance to be inspired and encouraged by so many people living awake right in front of us!
