As we "chased God's glory" this summer, here's some of what we saw.

Every warrior was living proof that no matter how broken, how wounded the life, Jesus can make all things new.

Forty-six young warriors modeled what the Church of Jesus ought to be. Praying fervently. Fighting together instead of fighting each other. Letting their hearts be broken for the things that break the heart of God. Refusing to be defined by their wounds or their pain. Choosing instead to live like sons and daughters of God.
