The Austin Stone’s New Pastors’ Blog

The Austin Stone has just launched a new blog to which I will be contributing called “God, Gospel, Mission”.  The idea is to communicate both pastorally and informatively about how God is moving in our pastors lives individually and how God is moving corporately in our body.  On a broad scale, each post would fall under a category of God (theology), Gospel (the application of the Gospel to our individual and corporate lives), and Mission (where God is moving us in the city and nations).

First, we’ll be walking through our decision to pursue multi-site church (see part 1 and part 2 by Dave Barrett), and in the future much of the theology that has informed our church vision and mission.

I highly recommend stopping over there and checking it out!

By Todd Engstrom

Although I was raised in the church and had a knowledge of God, I didn’t embrace Jesus until I heard gospel preached and lived out by some Young Life leaders. God has proven faithful and good to me since that day, even in great suffering and loss. I have learned to treasure Romans 8:28 as a wellspring of hope and truth.

God has blessed me with an amazing wife (Olivia), three sons (Micah, Hudson and Owen) and a daughter (Emmaline). Growing up in the northwest, the thought never crossed my mind that I would have four children who are native Texans. Despite landing in the south, I still watch Notre Dame games with my children every Saturday in hopes they will land at my alma mater.
