This Sunday is DNOW Sunday. This concludes a weekend of focused preaching and discipleship for the students of SWBC. The DNOW speaker for this year is JD Summers. JD serves Redemption Hill Church, Lawrence, MO, as Senior Pastor.
JD was called in 2010 to serve as an associate pastor at Countryside Church in Overland Park, KS, serving in a variety of pastoral capacities and preparing for church planting. In 2014 Countryside sent JD and his family, along with a committed team of members, to plant Redemption Hill Church.
JD has a bachelor's degree in biblical languages and is currently working on a graduate degree from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City. He has been married to his wife Sara since 2005, and they love being parents to James, Grace, Olivia and Elijah.
Sunday morning JD will be preaching on James 3:13-14.
